The attention of the philanthropic public has been attracted to the degrading system of low wages pursued for a number of years in this extensive and almost only branch of female industry, the Proprietor begs to state that in the form of the registered shirt a very great improvement is effected, and at the same time no absurd novelty is therein introduced, but that care is taken to preserve the easy looseness so necessary to this garment, together with a plain smooth setting front, and to retain this appearance during the whole time in wear. It is presumed that this object lvis not been attained by others commonly in use, which, too often rising in wrinkled folds with the slightest movement of the body, at once deetroys the neat appearance so desirable, yet usually omitted in this essential but hitherto mush neglected article of dress. But a further and most important advantage is offored ; the material of those parts which are seen when the skirt is worn, vis., the fronts, collars, and wristbands, are composed of the most beautiftil of that fabric almost the sole manufacture for which Ireland has obtained celebrity, and the golden flax linen or cambric is now well known to be pre-eminent in the purity of its bleach, presenting in those por tions of the registered shirt as described a beautiful snow white ap pearance. 49, Regent-circus, being the warehouse for the West-end, none but the best workers are there empleyed, remunerative wages being paid, notwithstanding which, there is no difference in the prices between the registered shirt and the ordinary shirt. Samples of either the work or the golden flax linen or cambric, stamped by the manufacturers, will be forwarded to the town residences of these Ladies or Gentlemen desirous of patronising this object.

The following are the more interesting portions of a Parliamentary paper, containing extracts made by Col. ill'Gregor from the police reports, stating the particu lars of the principal h om i c ide s in Ireland in the years 1845 and 1846, and forwarded to the Home-office by him.—(No conviction has taken place %here an asterisk is placed before the name of the victim.) : * Jan. 27.—Ryan, John (county Tipperary). A farmer was about to propose for land, the property of Mr. Philips, of Mount Rivers. There had in this case been no compulsory ejectment or rigorous exaction of rights. On his way, however, to the proprietor, he was assailed by two men, strangers to himself, one of whom pulled him from his horse, and fractured his head with a stone. He survived only a few days. Two per sons were taken into custody on strong suspicion ; but the injured man, evidently fearing the consequences to his family, would make no disclosures tending to their indentification. *January 29.—M`Leod, John, Esq., R.M. (County Leitrim). Towards the close of November, 1844, tEe peace of the northern part of the county of Cavan, and the ad joining parts of Leitrim, had become very seriously disturbed by numerous armed and organised bodies of Whiteboys. To meet these circumstances, the magis tracy applied for an increased police force, and an addi tional stipendiary magistrate. The required police were immediately supplied, and Mr M‘Leod, the resident ma gistrate stationed at Enniskillen, was selected by the Government, and temporarily placed at Ballina more, in aid of the local authorities in the suppression of the illegal organisation referred to. • On the day above stated, Mr. M`Leod had been dining with W. Percy, Esq , J.P., of Garadic.e, and had set out in the evening on his return to his own quarters. Finding Mr. ?ercy's lodge -gate shut (contrary to prac tice when company is entertained), Mr. M`Leod was in the act of desiring the driver of his car to get it opened, when he was fired at from behind an opening in the evergreen at the lodge-gate, where the assassin, aided by the light of a candle (left, as if designedly, in the lodge), is believed to have deliberately taken his aim ; the gun-shot penetrated the heart and lungs, and caused instantaneous death. There is no doubt that a conspiracy had been formed, and it is an ascertained fact that a notice of the murder was posted at Enniskil len two days tefore its perpetration. Two circumstances, have, however, been mentioned as its immediate exciting cause ; Ly come it is attri buted to his having refused bail to certain individuals in custody on serious offences ; by others to a decision made by Mr. M‘Leod some days previously at Bawn boy petty sessions. *January 18.—Smith, Samuel, Esq., (County Tip perary.) The attention of a resident of Borrisofarney having been attracted by a horse passing his door without a rider, he discovered at about eighty yards distant, on the road, the body of Mr. Smith, the scull broken in two places, and the brain protruding. Hopes were entertained of the discovery of the as sassins, as a soldier of the 69th regiment swore that he witnessed the perpetration of the murder by four per sons, whom he pretended to identify, but he afterwa-ds deserted, and there is no doubt of his perjury. It is understood that he was about dispossessing two per sons of a farm, which was to be given to another. *March I2.—Dwyer, Denis (County Tipperary, South). The brother of this man, John Dwyer, of Listowran, had taken a farm at Glenbairn, from which the former tenant had been ejected. The Dwyers, with about fifteen men, had been ploughing on this land, and were returning home about seven P.M., when they were at tacked by thirty or forty persons with stones. Several were more or less injured, but Denis received a fracture of the skull, of which, after a few days, he died. *April 2.—Ryan, James (South Tipperary). Was shot dead by his brother John. On the death of their father John had received a sum of money in lieu of his share of the land. Having proceeded to America and spent his money, he returned, claiming his portion of land; of course it was refused, and the ill-feeling arising in consequence induced the commission of this murder. The perpetrator has absconded. *April 17.—Swift, Patrick. Was found dead in the river of the town of Galway. There were several marks of violence about his body and head. He had come to the town to give evidence in a civil bill case, which was dismissed in his (Swift's) absence. *May 4.—Waters, John (County Tipperary). Had been in the employment of Henry Going, Esq., of Riverlawn, and was a stranger at the place. As he was returning to his master's residence with a man named Corrigan (whose services as ploughman were likely to be superseded by those of Water,) several armed with bludgeons, according to the statement of Corrigan, leaped off the road into the grove. *May 24.—Kennelly, John (County Tipperary). A certain man had received a portion of land with his wife, as her fortune, on condition of his paying a sum of money to her relatives. The wife died soon after, and the man married again ; the friends of the deceased wife then wanted to recover possession of the land, which was refused ; but the man was several times assaulted, and ultimately compelled to quit the land and the neighbourhood. A feud was thus created between the friends of the first and second wives. As a party of the former were returning from the market at Roscrea to Moneygall, they were waylaid and assaulted with stones by some of the latter, and several serious injuries were inflicted. John Kennelly, belonging to neither party, who hap pened also to be returning from the market, endeavoured to interposed as a peace-maker, when he was knocked down, and the back of his skull fractured by a blow of a stone on the side of the head. Kennelly died in about a week. * June 26.—Landrigan, John. Twelve months ago a man was murdered on the mountains off Nine -mile House, near Carrick-on-Suir, and the friends of the murdered man prosecuted. A woman relaetd to the prosecutors was married to a pub lican named Egan, who owned a tent erected on the race-course of Ballina. On the evening of the day stated above, a party of twelve or fifteen men entered the tent, and grievously assaulted Egan and his servant Landrigan with stones. _ _ On the following day Landrigan died, and Egan became so ill that his recovery for a while was doubtful. *June 22. —800th George J. Bell, Esq., J.P. Was shot dead in his gig, as he was returning at about half-past two P.M. from divine service with two of his children. The horse running away with the vehicle, one of the children was thrown, and a wheel passed over his arm, which was broken. * Kenny, Thady (County Clare), The deceased man's father had taken land at Dogneive, from which James Sexton had been previously ejected. Deceased was returning home from that place, when he was shot in the face from behind a hedge, his assistant following the attack by inflicting severe wounds on the back of the head with some sharp instrument. The son of Sexton (aforesaid) was taken into custody, and com mitted for trial. * Linney, Thomas (East Galway). This person, who was shot through the lungs, had been recently engaged as a steward by the Rev. Mr. Butson, of Clonfort, who had discharged his former steward (named Coutes), retaining, however, in his ser vice two of Coutes's brothers as coachman and stable keeper. To these and to their father (old Coutes, who lived in the neighbourhood), and to another stable-boy, suspicion attached, and +h=l were apprenenat-a. c.,,, ral threatening lettr had been previously sent to Mr. But son, desiring ohm to discharge Linney. * Clarke, ratrick,!Esq., of South Hill (County Tipperary). Tb;e gentleman was shot dead by two men while riding round his own demesne, superin tending his workmen. It appears that Mr. Clarke several years ago had purchased the estate ituques tion, bnt had never, until recently, resided there. Having been induced to visit the place and prolong his stay, he had discovered that, in his absence, be had t i h s e thatis n t e custody,wb both t r h d ' s shoulds a n s d beent el an t s r u v h , j a he sy h ste ad ni de o t f ert u n d ed on to t c h h e ee p lt ar a t n o d f put his down. - It is by some thought that the immediate cause e w ct hio to h , , to whom hom the father had given up his land, and one of and another malcontent, arrears, as the imme diate the two im on getting married, Mr. Clarke insisted should arose quit,diwii ehasvot eu dswhop conspiratorsai u ti tcod t hi obobanefeseatufhnemeldispute compelled actual oofno in a.this the n e sue t e w y ms m e at (eaosuunns murder, payawse y, ro. one willin g o n f e. remain). p m li e c n at l in e g - J a . s p• h (C , (County Westmeath). information has been received strongly others as co-conspirators. with C olonel Although life was not taken in this case, it is concluded in this return on account of serious c h aracter.

The assas sins then decamped, leaving a hat on the ground, which subsequently led to the arrest and identification of one of them. * Molony, Patrick (County Tipperary). The brother of the deceased had taken a few acres of land some years ago, from which the former tenant had been ejected ; he had been (preciously to this murder) served with a threatening notice to qu it. A s deceased sat with his brother in the eveui e __ , g four men entered the house ; two of them presentin— g a pistol each at the brothers, demanded why they did not obey the notice. One of them struck the deceased on the head, b rea ki ng his skull, which he did not lA_ g survive.

The assassins are as yet unknown. * llogan, John (County Tipperary). This man was probably murdered instead of his brother (Darby), who had been for some time ob noxious. The deceased had taken land. His assassins are unknown. He received three shots in the body, and other injuries, which caused immediate death. * January 12—Mr. James Lynch (County Limerick). Had served ejectments on several small tenants on his farm. He was fired at about noon, within 50 yards of his residence, and survived the sh o t b u t a f ew m i nu t es . It appears that no person can be found who witnessed the attack, but there is circumstantial evidence against a man named Cosheen, who has absconded. * January 17—Patrick Murphy (County Tipperary). Was fired at as he entered his own residence, by one of three men. He had been employed as keeper on a property seized for rent. The supposed offenders are in custody. COUNTY OF ROSCOMMON. Castlerea District, March 13, 1845, One o'clock, r.st. In transmitting the communication this moinent handed me by Francis S. Byrne, Esq., a magistrate of this district and county, I beg leave to state it as my opinion, that the conduct of this gentleman and the three constables who were with him, in the trying and perilous situation in which they were placed is beyond all praise, both for steadiness and intrepidity. Why Mr. Byrne should become obnoxious I do not know, except that he is an active and zealous magistrate, who since my acquaintance with him (now four years) I found to act firmly and humanely. It is deeply to be regretted that circumstances combined to prevent the identification of any of the insurgents. In consequence of this most daring outrage upon a magistrate at his own door, and also upon the police, and the too suc cessful issue of it, as regards the insurgents of the county. I think it my duty to recommend, earnestly, that the constabulary at Ballintobbe should be aug meted to at least twenty men, and that a detachment of troops, or twenty additional constabulary, be placed forthwith either here or at Ballymoe. (Signed) 11. W. WRAY, R. M. Edward Lucas, Esq., &c., Dublin Castle. COUNTY TIPPERARY. The following gives a melancholy idea of the state of this part of Ireland : On the night of the Ist of November last, in the barony of Lqwer Ormond, county Tipperary, as Michael llogan, of Killeen, was returning to his house, he was tired at from behind a hedge, whore three men were concealed until llogan came close to them ; the shot took no effect, and the party fled. This Michael Hogan's brother had given evidence in the case of Dr. and Mrs. Hobbs, which he deemed the cause of this attack on the brother. I have to report, that at half-past seven o'clock, p.m., on the Ist instant (December), as James Henzy, steward to Mrs. Bennett, of Moneaguil, was sitting at dinner in the kitchen, in Mrs. Bennett's house, he was fired at through a small opening in the shutter of a front window, while in the act of putting his hand to his mouth, and wounded in the hand, the ball having entered near the thumb, and passing out at the wrist. The ball was found on the kitchen floor. The police got out as soon as they possibly could, but could find no trace of the person who fired the shot, it being very dark at the time. CH. G. O'DELL, 5.1., Inspector-General. Newport, Dec. 8, 1845. I have to report that constable Patrick O'Hara, and sub-constables John Franklin, James Burke, John Young, John Mullowney, and Anthony Cullen, of the Clonlough station, were on patrol in the neighbourhood of Ballynahinch, about seven P.M. last night, when they were fired on by a party of Rockites, about eight in number, who no doubt lay in wait for them ; the police (four of whom were loaded) returned the fire, but cannot say with what degree of effect. The Rockites' fire, I am sorry to say, told on sub constable Cullen: he is severely wounded in both arms. The police took but one prisoner and one stand of arms. The prisoner is a young man, about eighteen years old, a servant boy of a farmer; the police detected him giving the signal to the Rockites to rush from their hiding place, near a house where the constable O'Hara states he called to receive some information about unregistered arms. J. LEWIS, S.I. EARL'S-HILL COLLIERY, BARONY OF SLIEVARDAGH, COUNTY TIPPERARY. The Board of Directors of the Mining Company of Ireland hereby gives notice to all whom it may concern, that the Company's works at Earl's hill Colliery will be suspended on Saturday, the 20th of December next, or the earliest day admissible, under existing contracts. The Board has been reluctantly compelled to adopt this course by the outrages and threats to which the Company's stewards, Martin Morris and others, have been subjected with impunity, notwithstanding large re wards offered for information, which might lead to the punishment of the offenders, and by the threatening notices subsequently served on those well-disposed work men who are desirous to work under the company, and earn support for themselves and families, but whose lives are too highly valued by the Board to be risked by con tinuance of the work, until sufficient protection can be afforded them. RICHARD PURDY, Secretary. Dublin, Nov. 26, 1845. Kyle Park, Borrisokane, Dec. 9. Sir—lt is my principal duty to state to you, for the information of his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant, that at dusk last evening a farmer named John Hogan, re siding at Ballinaderry, was shot dead close to his own house ; three or four shots were discharged at him so close as to set his clothes on fire, and his body perforated in every part with balls. The cause assigned is, that he had taken an acre of land joining his farm, from whence a neighbour had been dispossessed. The murdered man was brother to Darby and Michael Hogan, both of whom have been fired at, the one in February last, the others a few weeks ago. (Signed) THOMAS G. STONEY, I. P. R. Pennefather, Esq. District of Carrick-on-Suir, Garrymorris, Jan. 19, 1846. On the evening of the 17th, about six o'clock, as Robert Murphy, of the above place, was entering his house, he was fired at by one of three men who stood at a small fence opposite the door. The ball entered his left breast, and passed into his body, from the effects of which he now lies dangerously ill, and no hopes of his recovery. Murphy was employed with another man as keeper on the property of Richard Dunn, of Coolarkin (the 'next townland), seized for rent due of him. Pre vious to my arrival he had given the names and descrip tion of three persons whom he said he saw when the shot was fired at him, to constable Uniack, of the Glen burn Post, who instantly proceeded with his party and arrested them. (Signed) RICHARD ROCHE, S. 1., Ist Rate. Newport, Jan. 21, 1846. On the night of the 20th, aboui half-past six P.M., at Cally, in the parish of Kilemaratty, as Mr. Alfred Waller was returning to his residence, and alone, he was waylaid in a field by four men, who severely as saulted him on the head and arms with bludgeons and stones, inflicting two severe cats on his head, and dread ful contusions on the left arm, which fractured one of the bones below the elbow. Mr. Waller himself states, that he could not himself identify any of the persons who at tacked him, nor did he at the moment discover any fir:e• arms with them. A few acres of land (three and a half) _which Mr. Waller had at his disposal was the cause, in while beating him, desired him to " give up Coons, give up Coons" (the name of the little townland which persons of the name of Keeffe pre tended to have a claim to.) Mr. Waller's life is not considered in any imminent danger. Inspector-General. 5.1., 2d Rate. Nenagh, Feb. 2, 1846. -- - - - On yesterday, as Mrs. Bennett, of - Money g uil, was driving to Ballinaclough church, she was stopped on the road by two men, one armed with a pistol, end tho other with a wattle, and ordered her to put away two of her men, Hens) , and Feehally. On her asking them what they had done, they snapped the pistol twice at her, and gave her three blows of the wattle, which severely injured her arms. I do not particularly mention this case on account of the amount of injury done, as Mrs. Bennett has not received any serious injury, and she thinks herself the pistol was not loaded, and only snapped to intimidate her; but it clearly proves to what a state of inhuman barbarity many of the people of this county are reduced, when they could thus assault a feeble old lady while on her way to church. With what endless perseverance they follow up their designs when once formed, and another of the numerous in stances that it is not the rights of property they alone attempt to put an end to, but all right to the freedom of action, or even judgment.

On the evening of the 11th inst. at five o'clock, an armed party of seven men entered the house of Law rence Leahy (a respectable farmer), and rushed at him, but Leahy, who was a very tell and powerful man, knocked down four of them with his fist ; but, after a struggle, he was overpowered and beat down ; when on the ground, his wife threw herself over him, but one of the fellows placed a gun quite close to his leg, and fired it, which dreadfully shattered the leg, and then struck him on the head with guns. Constable Parker at once hastened to the scene, and found Leahy dying, who told the constable that two men named - and - were of the party who beat him, shortly after which he ex pired. The Inspector-General, &c. COUNTY OF CAVAN. Arva, Feb. 4, 1846. I beg to report that the borders of Lo ng f or d an d Lei trim, adjoining Cavan, and partly in my district, are again becoming much disturbed, and that serving threat ening notices, waylaying, and beating, and visiting houses at ni g ht, i n search of arms, are becoming very frequent. On Sunday night last, in one of those visits to the house of a person named Patrick Clancy, in the county of Leitrim, a pistol was presented at Clancy and snapped, when it providentially missed fire. Dances are held constantly in the several townlands. This is done solely to give a tangible excuse for the gathering together of a number of persons. I had those dance-houses most carefully watched by the and I find there is no drunkenness, no rioting ; every thing is conducted peaceably ; but during the time dancing is going on inside the houses numbers of men are congregated outside ; I am quite sure, on no good intent. - - (Signecl JOHN B.

I have just returned from attending the adjourned inquest on the body of Thomas Meany, and the finding of the Jury that he came by his death in consequence of several wounds on the head from some person or per sons unknown. It is evident he was murdered for hav ing urged Mr. Pierce Carrick (an agent under the Court), to turn out an undertenant, who held posses sion of . about twenty perches of land and a small hut, which was in the centre of deceased's farm. The under tenant has been arrested on suspicion, he having fre quently told the mother of deceased that she would get one of her sons killed; but I fear the ends of justice will be frustrated, as intimidation and combination prevail to a frightful extent.

I have to report that on last night, the 6th instant, about the hour of half-past seven o'clock, a party of seven men, disguised with their faces blackened, and handkerchiefs tied round th em , an d three ofthem armed with guns, the others with bludgeons, entered the houses of Owen Meany, Bridget Meany, and James Molowny, Michael Meany, and Thomas Meany ; the latter had his scull fractured, and died in twd or three hours afterwards ; the others received cuts and bruises on their heads and bodies ; two female inmates of the houses were also struck, but not seriously hurt. On going away they fired two shots, and then proceeded to the house of Michael Hogan, of Shanakill, in this dis trict, and beat him and his two sons, but not seriously. The deceased is son to Bridget Meany, and bore an ex cellent character. I have not been able to procure a description of the offenders, as they were disguised. (Signed) KELLY, Sub-Inspector. Currastona, March 13, 1846. My dear Mr. Wray—Having dined at Mr. Harry Browne's, at Leabeg, last night, and having previously received several threatening notices to be on my guard, I ordered a patrole of three men, viz., Constable Baska ville, Sub-constable Geoghagan, and Sub-constable Gor man, to be at my house at about nine o'clock to watch the neighbourhood ; and, as Leabeg-road was one .upon Which it was necessary to patrole, I requested they would call at Mr. Browne's for me and escort me home ; they did call,' as desired, about ten o'clock, and. I ac companied them back towards my home. At about a quarter of a mile from my residence, and as we were proceeding quietly along, we heard the sound of foot steps, as if a party of men were running, and in about half a minute we came up with four men, armed with long guns and a piece of a scythe, whom we challenged ; they immediately stopped, and we made them prisoners, each of us taking one and their arms. While endeavouring to secure them, they at tempted to rescue themselves ; two succeeded, by knock ing me down, and made off to their party that was on before them, which, to the best of our opinion, and what we could learn from the neighbours, numbered at least 200 men, and in the meantime the other two escaped ; Sub c mstable Gorman having followed one of them by my orders, came up with the main body, who imme diately cried out, • Come on, boys ! Will you see our men taken ? They are only four." (we four.) We then retreated, the whole body following, and having at tempted to make an entry into the house of a. man named Luke Cowen, the party cried out to surround us, and to come in our rear, in which they succeeded, and whilst I and the police were endeavouring to force an entry, there were several shots fired at us, which happily did not take effect beyond the breaking the windows and furniture of the house. Having made our entry, we placed a man at each door, and one at a window, with bayonets fixed. We remained quiet, and in a few moments we thought we saw the end of the house on fire, which proved to be true, and lighted sods of turf being placed in each corner in the thatch of the house, we momentarily ex pected to be either burned to death or suffocated, and at the same time knowing that if we left the house we would be shot at as we came out. Most fortunately the man of the house opened the door and called the neighbours, and commenced putting out his furni ture. After some time they, evidently very reluctantly, came to our assistance, being in dread and terror of their lives, and succeeded in tearing down the burning thatch, which eventually proved our safety. We remained in a state of defence at Cowen's house from half-past ten P.M. until eight this morning, when, having reconnoitred, we proceeded to my residence, and having dressed myself, proceeded to the barrack at Bailin tobber, and having reinforced our party, started to Castlerea to lay the details of the gross and unparalleled outrage in this hitherto peaceable neighbourhood before you. I regret, from the darkness of the night, and the perilous situation we were placed in, we could not identify any of the parties. (Signed) FRANCIS TYRRELL BYRNE. COUNTY OP LIMERICK. • Mitchelstown, Jan. 12, 1846. I have to report a most atrocious and daring murder which was committed this day, about six m il es from here, in this distrint, at a place called Banagunahy, in the parish of Anglesbury and county Limerick. The de ceased, Mr. Jones Lynch, a respectable farmer, holding 300 acres of land, at 6s. per acre, under Mr. Lowe, of Spring house, near Bansha, in the county Tipperary, left his own house this day a little after twelve o clock, to proceed to his son's house, situated about 500 yards from his father's, upon the same townland of Bana guuehy. It would appear that he did not delay long at his son's house, who was absent from home, - at tending the fair of Mitchelstown, and on his return to his own house by the high road, when within 50 yards of his dwelling, he was shot almost immediately dead, as he could not have survived above five minutes at the utmost, after having received his death wound. Two balls (apparently pistol balls) entered his back close to the spine, about seven inches apart, one of which passed through the stomach, and was extracted by Surgeon Phelan in my presence; a third ball entered the body in front, about the fourth rib on the left side. lam not without some hopes of perhaps obtaining information to sustain a case _of conspiracy to murder, but I see no chance of obtaining any information to lead to the con viction of the murderers; of this, however, you may rest satisfied, that every exertion shall be made, and every pains taken ta vindicate the law. I beg to suggest a re ward of 100/. in this case. (Signed) W. FEITAREBBOROUGH, R.M. THE FRENCH NAVY. REPORT OF ME COMMITTEE OF NAVAL INQUIRY. _ On Monday, the Committee on the grant of an extra ordinary credit of ninety-three million francs (3,720,000/ ) for the French navy, laid their report before the Cham ber of Deputies. The Committee proposed various modifications in the project of the Government ; we lay before our readers an impartial statement of their deliberations. After having established as an essential condition that a just equilibrium should exist between the complement and armament of the navy, the Committee exposed in the I following words the general considerations which guided them : " The Committee are unanimous in their opinion that the French navy must be on such a footing as to be able to act on the offensive, if necessary, in every part of the ocean; they do not wish entirely to break with the past, and renounce for ever the honourable though expensive chuum3 or 6 -1-cab naval combats. What they wish, what they earnestly desire, is that a war, if such came to pass, might be begun with rapidity, carried of with vigour and perseverance enough to ensure peace on a firm footing as the reward of a bold and energetic line of conduct. " We agree with the Government on the grounds and applications of them, but we do not coincide in their opinion regarding the number of vessels to be kept afloat and on the stocks. We do not deem the project of the Government sufficient as regards the steam navy; but we wish to reduce the number of sailing vessels of the lesser class. Voted unanimously. The reductions are mostly adopted, two votes were for having them on a much more extensive scale. All were of accord as re gards the utility of developing the new system of na vigation." Rear• Admiral Heernoux, reporter of the Committee, quoted the official documents on the subject, and gave a clear notion of the advantages of the new recruiting system of the navy, based on the coast fisheries and the crews of merchantmen. According to this system all the recruits are called successively into the service as the navy may require them. The reporter was of opinion that the service was greatly benefited by the system, and that French sailors might bear comparison with the best organised troops. The Committee then examined the different classes of vessels of which the fleet ought to be composed. They reduced by eight the number of men-of-war on the stocks, but increased by four the number afloat. T he y accorded 2,000 horse-power for establishing vessels equally adapted for sailing or steaming (vaisseaux mixtes), to be attached, no matter what their number, to the vessels afloat. They demanded, likewise 800 horse-power for the construction of two floating batteries for blockading the mouths of rivers ; the reporter bpoko of these batteries in the following terms : t t h t e e n d t ieofne defence turned ''The to a construction of two floating batteries (0 the of tl C le orn co m a i s t t t , ee th b e Berating batteries; effec tually the mouths of rivers. T he )e,iesyteotapppitairfintdigeeflatrhli)e set in motion by plans proposed last year, a solely of a defensive naturree, btoome-proof, and built on ew !u s e b i t ner b s e i on, fire-pro of, anra e a to ud be sptoesasmibleP°rwenadre; h re t d e s y are sfe l ik ewi s e against armed with heavy asratiillilnegry,vemssaeslkse, dorbystiwaartellsrsi,mopwiennea treble to m i ssi les : too account for the service to w hich the floating batteries are destined. The Government proposed that four frigates afloat eiliteld 14 furnished with a small steam-engine and a screw. The Committee proposed the allotment of 1,000 horse power to various of the frigates afloat, so as to enable them - to be employed in the defence of the coast and roadsteats. They likewise intend 480 horse power for foiir corvettes, which are likewise to be good sailing vessels ; they are b be iron built, and to carry a light, weight of metal, so as to enable them to move from place to place with great rapidity. The following are the. reflections and propositions of the C omm itt ee re specting the steamers:— " A royal decree of the 4th of March, 1842, fixed at 70 the number of steamers belonging to the fleet. " The steamers wero dqual to " A new decree of the 10th Nov., 18 t 5, increasing the number of steamers to 100, and the propelling power to 28,800 h. p. " An increase of 10,400 h. p. which was to be sent from our arsenals, provided that the steamers puilt for the transatlantic service were not td be added to the navy. The united power of these vessels is 6,730 h. p. "We deduct this, and there remain 3,670, which the Government demanded, and which the Committee vottd at once. "Steamers, in small number, it is true, cons;dered as means of war, have a peculiar merit of their own. But if we only looked upon them as auxiliaries, we must add that as such they are indispensible, and would he ,o, even if they were of less consequence. If two squAron., of sailing vessels were opposite each other, the squadron which had the greatest means of locomotion, owing to steam tugs, would have a decided advantage. The re cent expeditions of France on the coasts of Mexico and Morocco, those of the English on the coasts of Syria and China, would have been accomplished after great labour, and perhaps not at all had it not been for the assistance of sl,earn. "The improvements in the different branches of steam navigation within the last few years are worthy of remark. But a few years since, and the vessels groaned under the weight of the machinery ; if they had to run a long distance, the engines were of lesser power, so as to allow room for coals ; if, on the con trary, speed was an object, their engines were of greater power, but they could only run for a short space of time; owing to their stock of coal being too small. Owing to new inventions these objections are partly done away with. Th e new b o il ers called tu b ular econom i se t h e fuel, and the use of steam at a higher pressure adds to the speed of the vessel. " The ievention of the screw is another step in advance, and requires the greatest attention to its merits ; a steamer cannot. be a man of war unless her engines are safe from being destroyed by a cannon ball. "Some late experiments at Gsivres prove that sheet iron is horribly lacerated by the effects of a cannon ball, therefore war steamers should be constructed of wood. "The second class steamers, carrying large swivel guns, ought to be of great speed, so as to be able to at or retreat, as the case might require. "The first class ought to be regular frigates carryinz heavy metal, and answering in every respect to their name. The following is the substance of the propositions of the committee for the fleet to be completed on the Ist of January, 1845 :- 36 Men-of-war 3 Floating batteries 40 • 40 • 50 55 Frigates 40 Corvettes 50 Brigs 30 Schooners (batitnents legers) 16 Transports l6 „ 100 Steamers 329 302 27 The expenses would be as follows: • New constructions:— francs franca.

TATTERSALL'S-YEITERDA Y. Our " price current" considerably exceeds the usual limit, and, without a word or two of preface, would give an erroneous idea of the extent of the betting. We should state, therefore, that in several instances the in vestments were but just sufficient to fix the prices, and that only on the three or four leading favourites for the Newmarket Handicap, on Sweetmeat, Best Bower, Vitula, Pedometer, and Petit Morceau for the Chet.t..r Cup, Tom Tullock, Traverser, and Humdrum for the Derby, was money laid out with any real spirit We should especially instance Tom Tullock, on whom large sums were lavished at 20 to 1, and a great anxiety shown in various quarters to get on at the same-figure. Brocardo receded first to 14 to 1, laid to 150/, and afterwardi to 16 to 1, laid to 1001.—a consequence of the Tom Tullock movement. We should also mention, with reference to the Chester Cup, that although bark.d for a good deal of money, there were more layers than usual against Sweetmeat, that little or nothing was said about Weatherbit, and that Hope was entirely friend less.
