REFUTATION of the FALSEHOODS and MISREPRESENTATIONS contained in a Pamphlet, pur porting to be a " Review" of the POST-OFFICE LONDON DI RECTORY FOR 1852. recently circulated:—the Pamphlet, which bore no printer's name, was signed "F. W. Watkins." It contained lists of perso s alleged to have died, or to have removed, but whose names are still in the " Post-office Directory." The " Refutation" proves that in many cases the allegations of the " Review" are totally witnout foundation in truth, the persons whose names have been so unjustffisbly made free with being alive and in business at the very places stated in the " Post-office London Directory." Besides the allegations quite devoid of truth, many are made which, although true, arc calculated to convey an entirely erroneous Impression —the writer of the " Review" (who must have known that a business is frequently carried on In the name of a deceased person), having made a collection of the names of people lately dead, has published them, treating as a disparagement to the " Post office Directory," that these names still remain in its Edition for the current year. The " Refutation" contains rlertifleates from many of the succes sors of the deceased persons, that the retentionas . and ofthe thuid namesatt would h i ave been Wisoaub solately necessary for the purposes of business, would have been wrong to have omitted them ; just wrong to have omitted " Coutts and Co., hankers, • although Mis no person of the name con nected with the firm. The Certificates of the persons interested are the best possible proof of the necessity for the retention of the names, although it must be manifest that the Proprietor of the " Post-office London Directory" would not have been in blame had no such necessity existed ; it being quite beyond his power to prevent persons either dying or removing, after having been called upon during the com pilation of the work, and before its completion and publication. The " Refutation" likewise shows, that of the important streets stated in the "Review" to be omitted In the "Post-office Directory for 1852," some are actually contained at the proper position, while it proves that others are not merely so, but that the charge of error is made against the " Post-office Directory," in consequence of the author of the " Review" first misspelling the names of the streets, and then discovering that they are not inserted in the " Post-office Directory as so missp lt ; the fact being that they are in the proper place correctly described. The " Refutation," consisting as it does of 14 imperial octavo pages, cannot be even abstracted within the limits of an advertise ment, but it may be bad gratuitously, on application at this office, or will he for war d ed on receipt of foure-stamps. The under signed believe that a more thorough uustag e osure than is contained in xp the " Refut a ti on, " of gross, and in many cases, ludicrous misrepre sentation, has never issued from the press.

Acton and then departed. Warburton, o f Mr. Eliot Warburton, who was a passenger:on board the Amax', and whose fate yet appears enveloped in uncer tainty, arrived here from London by a special train, bringing dispatches from the Lords of the Admiralty to the Commandetoin-Chief at this port, Admiral Sir John Acworth Ocemaney, K.C.8., upon the receipt of ; which the Admiral issued orders for two steam-vessels —the Sprightly, Master-Commander Allen, and the Avon, Se cond Master-Commanding Veitch—to proceed with all pozsible dispatch to join the Hecate, in searching for any of the survivors of the Amazon, and to contieue the search for a reasonable length of time. This step on the part of the Admiralty has been made on the application of Mr. Warburton, who has yet a hope that his distin guished brother is still alive somewhere, with others of the crew and passengers—a hope grounded on the state ment of Mr. Glennie and many of the survivors, that there were sufficient materials on deck to make rafts, and also from their having expressed a belief that another life-boat, in addition to those which have been met with, left the ill-fated ship with a number of persons on board at the time of the late melancholy event. The steamers will proceed at once to the Bay of Biscay, and will scour some portion of the coast of Spain, calling at every port, and, in fact, we believe aro to visit every place at which the commanders may consider it proba ble that any of the survivors have been driven. The steamers left early this morning, one of them taking Mr. Warburton as a passenger on board. Last evening, at six o'clock, the sailors who had been brought into this port by the Dutch galliot, were sent off to Southampton by train (to which place, with one exception, they all belonged) at the expense of the Shipwrecked Mariners' Society. Directly on their arrival here, Mr. J. M. Carkeet, a merchant of this town, was most indefatigable in his oxer• tions to provide them with every necessary. When the men left the Amazon they had scarcely any clothes upon them, and when they were taken on board the galliot they were supplied with what could be spared with difficulty, namely, a shirt each, the vessel being a very small one. Mr. Carkeet placed them in an inn, and expended 21. 17s. in supplying them with all requi site comforts. He then purchased eight coats and frocks for the engineers and seamen, nine pairs of trowsers, six cravats, eighteen pairs of stockings, nine pairs of shoes, nine pairs of braces, eleven pocket handkerchiefs, nine cloth caps, and nine shirts, the whole of which amounted to 221. The engineers were also supplied with two silk pocket handkerchiefs, and the boy Harris was presnted by Mr. Carkeet with a suit of clothes. Yesterday morning the men all appeared in their new apparel, and at the house of Mr. Carkeet they were regaled with grog, &c., and in the evening he placed 7s. in the pocket of each, and he accompanied them to the railway station, and saw them safely seated in a carriage. We aro glad to sse - that for this act of liberality on the part of Mr. Carkeet many other gentlemen have kindly come forward and relieved Mr. Carkeet from the outlay to which he had been put. Previous to the boat being picked up the men found a box floating in the water, and in it was discovered several pairs of thin shoes, intended, no doubt, for the natives in one of the warm climates. In addition to the statements already made by some of the crew last saved, another seaman, named Charles Dewdney, has made the following state. ment:—l was in the forecastle asleep when I heard the cry of " Fire," and when I came on deck I could not get through the hatch. I tried to get over the spar deck, but could not on account of the fire. I then went over the paddle box and I saw two ladies, both of whom I helped over into the boat, into which I also got, and I endeavoured to shove her off, but I could not on account of the tackle being foul. We again tried to lower the boat, and in doing so it capsized. The Rev. John Hatchard, the vicar of St. Andrew's, called on the Rev. Mr. :Blood, and invited him to the vicarage, and to-morrow it is the intention of Mr. Blood, with the vicar's sanction, to preach at St. Andrew's Church, when it is expected he will fully detail the pro vidential circumstances attending the escape of the survivors, in behalf of whom a collection will afterwards be made. The survivors attended at St. Andrew's Church yesterday morning, and joined the Rev. J. Hatchard in thanksgiving to God for their preservation. SOUTHAMPTON, JAN. 17.—The inquiry into the origin of the fire on board the ill-fated Amazon was resumed on Saturday, at twelve o'clock, by the directors of the com pany. It will be recollected that on the previous day all the witnesses then arrived in Southampton had been ex amined, and that the investigation had been adjourned, in the hope that by the time appointed the thirteen sur vivors brought onto Plymouth, or a portion of them, might be brought forward. At twelve o'clock, how ever, none of them were forthcoming, and a few of those who had already given their evidence were recalled to answer questions, chiefly put by Captain Beechy on the part of the Board of Trade. Thus the time passed till three o'clock, when William Angus, the engineer, came in by train, and having first been welcomed by his rela tives, presented himself before the directors and made his statement. Another interval elapsed, and at last, about half-past four o'clock, the others reached South ampton. They were brought to Portsmouth by an Irish steamer, and thence conveyed by rail. Their relatives and friends had turned out to receive them, and the meeting of the men with their wives, sisters, and mothers, was such as, under the circumst ances, m i ght have been expected. After a short interval the directors resumed their in quiry. The men examined appeared all to have suffered much in health. Some were severely burnt, others were hurt about the legs and could scarcely walk, and none seemed to have completely recovered from the hardships through which they have so recently passed, The di rectors congratulated them upon their safety as they were introduced, and Captain Sheppard especially shook bands with several of them. We published in our Saturday's impression a very full and accurate report of all that the chief witnesses had to Plymouth. say at Their evidence, on the inquiry is for the most part, a substantial repetition of this narrative, and it is only now necessary to mention those points in their respective statements which bear more closely upon the origin of the fire or upon the fate of the passengers and crew still missing. As to the origin of the fire, though it has been traced still more closely, contradictions have arisen which render the cause of it as uncertain as ever. Ono witness asserts that it originated in the fore storeroom, where the oil and tallow were kept— that he saw the flames issuing from the door when there was nothing wrong in the space between the fore boiler and the bulkhead underneath, and when the empty coalsacks close adjoining were still not ignited. Ho also states—and this fact is confirmed_ that the storekeeper was in the storeroom with the light about an hour before the fire broke out. On the other hand, we have the evidence of the storekeeper, Whines, William Angus the engineer, Roberts the boiler maker, and others, that the lames were first seen ascending below the storeroom, into which they made their way, and that they must have originated between the fore boiler and the bulkhead, whatever might have given rise to them. Tho discrepancy is perhaps more apparent than real, and it is due to all the witnesses to say that they have made their statements with great clear ness considering the circumstances, and with every ap pearance of candour and truth.

GREAT MEETING AT THE LONDON TAVERN, On Thursday last, the Eight Honourable LORD MAYOR in the Chair, For the Prevention of Destitution and Mendicancy. A. Gentleman present, not being able to make a speech, has sent us his notes, from which we make a few extracts. I approve of this movement ; from what has been said it is evi dent that " preventi on " i s aimed at as well as cure, your hearts have suffered from the sympathetic grief which the sights of wretched ness and misery have produced, and your ear has not refrained from the tale which the mendicant has poured out. What pleasure it would afford you to see all your fellow men, and especially our mechanics and industrious artizans, who it has just been said " Often become the subjects of our bounty," from the fact of their having paid high prices for those things which they daily require, and more particularly for their DRESS, which has been an immense subject of consumption in all families, and was, prior to the enterprise of E. MOSES and SON, charged outrageous prices, but now is made ac cessible to every one at their Mart at an easy rate. I repeat to see these, with all the inhabitants of London and its surrounding coun try, providing themselves with a fund in the day when they can labour, a fund on which they may depend in time of need, thus cul tivating a spirit of independence and saving you the great sum you have to con tribute to the various institutions from which destitution seeks for relief. You pledge yourselves to support this movement, and the way by which you may best do so, is to save forty per cent. by purchasing all your Dress and that of your dependants at the Economical Clothing Mart of E. MOSES and SON ; this will enable you further to extend your liberality in your excellent plans. Economy and frugality are the best preventatives of destitution and mendicancy. " Waste not, want not," is true as ever. The most certain way to prevent destitution in the City and elsewhere is for the people to become possessors of those advantages offered to all classes, purchasing every article of Dress at E. MOSES and SON'S, Aldgate and Minories, or New Oxford -street and llart street. Such a course would certainly prevent a great amount or destitution, leaving the people a large amount of money purely the result of superior quality and law prices. The prices being more reventea agreat expenditure— is than 40 per cent. lower than any other house, constitutin g an en ti re saving of cash to meet accident, scarcity, and old age. The amoun t li already in family in amount of distress in the City and in other places. I, therefore, u rge sa saved nf forty r t b y e f p o e r r e cent.age on any Gentlemar here who has not already given E. MOS E S and d m: i t n e e s e l a ti n r d g e h s a u SON the whole of his patronage to do so forthwith, not only from the fact of their being Tailors, Hatters , Hosiers, &c., &c., to the No bility, but the sustainers of our City's Taste, Credit, and F as hi on , and the economisers of the money of our distinguished and wealthy citizens, and endeavour to extend the benefits of such a re d uct i on to all classes under your influence and engaged in your service, by directing them to go to E. MOSES and SON for every article of dres', which will secure them from the sorrows of destit u ti on an d the humiliation of mendicancy. E. MOSES and SON, a hate of the passengers and crew still missing, it is conso latory to think that there aro still grounds for hope, one boat which yet remains unaccounted for is described as ROYAL YOLYTEMINI6 - INSTITUTION.

Mr. Nutburn, ,a former witness, in answer to ques tions put by Captain Beechy, said that it was the centre bearing of the engines that was heated, and that could not on any account have affected the woodwork. He attended to the water gauge, and, according, to orders, kept eight inches of water to six inches of steam. He saw the hose of the water engine playing on the fire. There were two water engines on the main deck. Attwood, the fireman, was re-examined by Captain Beechy, and repeated with great positiveness his former evidence as to seeing the flame rushing out at the top of the storeroom door. He was on a level with the storeroom, and he would have seen had there been fire under it. The empty coal sacks were not on fire then. The rolling of the ship might cause the spilling of oil, but he had said nothing to the engineer about it, to Mr. THE SILENT FRIEND. IN SIX LANGUAGES-FORTIETH EDITION.

" Working very hard and rendering every assistance," said the witness, " but he did not attempt to escape himself, nor the second officer either." If they are saved, all the officers, in Angus's opinion must have got off together. When he got off all the passengers were gone.

The turpentine helped ar w t :it hoei which hwf thealwsme quite he had never seen any leakage of oil from the tanks. In answer to a question by Captain Sheppard, he stated that the engines of the Amason were as splendid a pair as a man could wish to handle. The bearings were not more heated than those of new engines usually were, and he was quite confident that it was from nothing of that kind that the fire originated. They had been working beautifully all that day, and all the arrange ments connected with them and with the boilers were of the safest and best description. If the fire had originated in the engine -room he must have seen it. A glare of light was no doubt deceptive, but had the fire com menced in the storeroom he must have seen it, and, besides, it must have struck the deck and run along with the draught at once. He noticed nothing peculiar in the smell of the smoke, and there was no smell of fire beforehand, either in the engine-room or on deck. Captain Warburton--It is quite clear that the boat in which you got away is the last yet accounted for as having left the ship. Was there a chance, then, for any others getting away? Witness thought there was; that two boats more might have escaped, and the sponsoon lifeboat, which he saw get away safely and all right, was still unaccounted for. The number of pumps on board was ample if they could have been worked. Angus Mimes, who stated that ho had been nine months in the company's employ, and had previously served in the Great Western, said that he had charge of the fore storeroom, where the oil and tallow were kept, and that he was the first to give the alarm of fire. [He then repeated in substance the evidence which was pub lished under his name on Saturday, from Southampton. As, however, his statement is important, we give those portions of it which bear upon the origin of the fire, at the risk of some repitition.] His duty was, he said, to at tend from morning till night. He was on till 12 o'clock at night, and owing to the state of the engines, they were consuming more oil than usual. At a quarter to 12, as near as he could guess, having enough tallow to supply him till morning, he wont to the fore storeroom and drew four gallons of oil. This storeroom contained tallow, oil, and soft soap, but no paint or linseed oil. There was some boiled oil, but there was no turpentine or spirit. He had strict orders for this from Mr. Angus. The other fore storeroom, on the larboard side, con tained waste for the:engine, brooms, and spun yarn. He was never permitted to go into it with a light, and it was not necessary, as he could take the waste that he wanted in the daytime. The other stores were for ge neral purposes, and contained numerous chisels and such like. He trimmed all the lamps, and after getting his allowance of oil went to the forecastle and lay down on one of the stools, where he might have been half an hour or three-quarters asleep, when he awoke feeling cold and chilly. He had no hammock then slung up for him. Leaving the forecastle ho went towards the en His Royal Highness Prince Albert went out shoot ing this forenoon, accompanied by his Serene High ness Pri nce L eo p o ld o f S axe C o b ourg , and the E ar l of Mul g r ave , an d a t ten d e d by Col.

He looked down it, and saw between the starboard fore boiler and the bulkhead a flame issuing as far as he could look down. The firemen s backs were turned at the time, and he shouted out to them, " Don't you see the fire? why don't you get water?" They did not, however, seem to notice him. He rushed aft where the hose was kept, and tried to drag it forward, shouting for assistance. The alarm was given to the ship and the fire bell was rung. Mr. Angus and Mr. Stone tried to put on the hose, but could not. He kept by it till ho could not breathe. Hearing the cry for buckets on the spar deck he ran aft as far he could, and the passengers were then breaking open the saloon door to get on the spar deck, which they effected, and a rush nuts made. He went to the pump, and was pumping away for some time. Two or three made an attempt to throw water on the fire, but without effect. Captain Symons, Mr. Roberts, and Mr. Angus tried to remove the bundles of ha - y, oars, and spars that were lying in the way of the fire, but they were soon in a blaze. At last the shout was raised, " Every man for himself," but not by the captain. By this time two of the boats got away. The flames were catching Mr. Roberts' jacket. A dark gentleman was all on fire in his night dress, and Mr. William Angus tore the clothes off him. Mr. Roberts had nothing on but his shirt, and Captain Symons was rushing about, but none of the Frew were there to obey his commands. He kept pump ing away, and the captain said, " Only one man at the Pump!" A quarter-master then came and gave him " a spell." Witness then went to the starboard side to get at the bo ats , an d he described what he saw afterwards and how h e ma d e his escape. Examined b y C aptain Nelson—He cou ld see the fire considerably below the store-room with which it had no connexion at the outset. He could conscientiously swear to that fact because he took particular notice of it. His only conjecture as to the possible cause of the fire was that one of th e pr i ckers which the firemen use, and whTh were generally redhot, might have been hung up in the rack int en d ed for their reception when cool, and thus ignited the canvas and felt covering of the boiler. Mr. Mills explained that this could hardly be done if the firemen tried to do it, and that it was not the cus tom to place the prickers on th e rac k w h en i n use , an d that even supposing one so placed, a fire so caused must have died out for want of something to sustain it. Angus Whiles used a globe lamp when he was in the store-room shortly before 12 o'clock. There was no par ticular heat there then. Isaac Roberts, boiler maker, on the origin of the fire said, that when he first saw it there was none in the store-room, but the smoke and flame came from between the starboard fore boiler and the bulkhead beneath it. He went to M'lnnes in the store-room to have his lamp, which was an open one, supplied with oil, and he left him supplying oil to his own lamp, which had a glass globe. His conjecture was that the fire had originated among chips of wood and other carpenter's rubbish, left between the bulkhead and the boiler. The hot irons of the fire men when hung up might have touched this and so caused the mischief. The American Minister and Mrs. Lawrence, Miss Lawrence, and Colonel T. B. Lawrence, left town on Saturday for Paris, to be absent a few days. Mr. Bancroft Davis remains as Chargé d'Affaires of the United States during the absence of the Minister. Lieutenant-Colonel Mundy had an interview with Earl Grey on Saturday at the Colonial-office. Mr. Labouchere arrived in town on Saturday morning from Stoke, for the purpose of attending the Cabinet Council. The Right Hon. Gentleman re turned to his residence in the afternoon.

T NATIONAL DEFENCES..-•••At a time when this subject is attracting much public attention and the possibility of invasion is talked of, it may not be unde serving of notice, as showing the spirit of the country on a former similar occasion, that in the year 1798 a voluntary subscription, amounting to no less a sum than 33,264/. 19s. 7 thy was raised at Bristol, in individual c on t r ib ut i ons amongst the citizens, and remitted to the Minister (Mr. Pitt), " for the defence of the country and in aid of Government." The meeting to take steps to raise this subscription was held at the Guildhall, Bristol, on the 23d of February, 1798, Mr. Thomas Daniel, the then mayor, in the chair. The object of the meeting was expressed by th e f o ll ow i ng resoluton : "That at the present important crisis, when our national prosperity and independence, with everything that is valu able in life, are at stake, it is incumbent on every individual who is attached to our glorious Constitution to stand for ward in its defence." ;A subscription was accordingly org anized, and amounted in a twelvemonth to the above sum.

The chief engravers in for mer times, it will perhaps be remembered, were allowed to undertake private commissions, and it is a notorious fact that the work of the Mint was insufficient to occupy more than a fourth of their time, while they were often called on to exe cute works which commoner hands could perform as well. This common work will now be executed by a resident en graver, under the direction of the superintendent of the Die Department, and Mr. James Wyon, it is said, has been no minated to the appointment. In all these arrangements it is understood that Sir John Herschel has had no other object in view than that of obtaining the assistance of " the best artists of the day."--"ltheweu m • SUICIDE of AN ENGINEER THROUGH THE STAHEL —Yesterday (Sunday) afternoon as one of the Citizen steam boats was proceeding up the river several passengers disco vered the body of a man lying in the mud off the Middlesex side of Vauxhall-bridge. An alarm was accordinglyiraised , when two watermen repaired to the spot, and with consider able difficulty succeeded in dragging the deceased on to the causeway, where the body was examined by a police-con stable, who did not find any documents in the pockets to ac count for the deceased's death. A large number of persons soon congregated on the bank, but a shell having been pro cured, the body was taken to the dead-house of St. Marga ret's Workhouse, Dean -street, Westminster. The deceased was apparently a b out 29 years o f age , and had a scar on th e right temple. He was dressed in a black velvet coat, mole skin vest, cord trousers, Oxonian shoes, black silk necker chief, and bl ue cap. Th e po li ce authorities immediately cir culated notices round the district, and in a few hours a female identified the body as being that of a man named John Leach, an engineer, lately in the employ of Messrs. Maude lay and Field, of W es tminster -bridge - road, iLambeth. The deceased had been missing since Friday from his house, and the female stated that he had been in a low state of mind since his dismissal on account of the employers' strike. In formation was forwarded by Mr. Crow, the beadle, to Mr. Bedford, the:coroner, who will hold an inquest on the body. THE BANBURY MURDER.—On Thursday the pri soner Giovanni Braailli Gulielmo Kalabergo, who stands accused of the horrible murder oi his uncle, Giovan n i Kala bergo, on the night of Saturday last, at Williamscote-hill, about four miles from this town, underwent a second exami nation at the Borough Gaol, before Colonel North, the Rev. mr. wy a t, the Rev. Mr. Lloyd, and Mr. Norris. No evi dence, however, of a material nature was taken, owing to the absence of a qualified interpreter, it being deemed essential that the prisoner should be acquainted with the nature of the evidence brought against him. He is said to be a Milanese, and the attendance of a linguist from one of the embassies has been requested. The prisoner continues in much pain from the injuries received in his rash attempt to escape, by jumping from a window twenty-five feet high. The fibula of the right leg is broken, and the right aria is seriously in jured. The other arm and leg are manacled. On Friday the coroner's inquest was resumed at the Crown Inn, Williams..cote, but owing to the very voluminous body of evidence ne cessary to complete the eircumstaucial, chain, it also was ultimately adjourned.
