The shares are to be 501. instead of 251., as stated by the Chairman in his said letter, and at the Meeting of the Scripholders ; and both lines are, as appears by the new Bill. to he made, as originally )roposed, and simultaneously ; for these and other important reasons, the Shareholders, now present, are determined to use every means to oppose the same.

The attention of Equitable Policy Holders is particularly called to the HALF CREDIT SCALES of PREMIUM of this Company, by which table the bonus to be declared at the next investigation, in January, 1850, may be secured at a pfesent annual payment of one half the rates charged by other companies. In the event of death the sum insured will be paid less the amount of premiums on credit. Should the life insured eurvive the declaration of the bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may be due thereon , or, in the event of the party being at that time in bad health, the policy can be kept up by commencing to pay the full premium of the age as when first accepted. The above plan, originating with the Company, was found peculiarly advantageous at the last equitable division in 1840, when it was largely adopted. and many of the policies then effected are still in force, and latge bonuses have been added to them on the scale of the following table ; gum Assured.

LONDON EXPERIMENTS IN WOOLWICH MARSHES. Lieut.-Colonel Dundas, C. 8., Lieut.-Colonel Wy1d4,C.8., Lieut.-Colonel Chalmer, Assistant Director-General of Agtil lery, Capt Palliser, Capt. Wingfield, Capt. Cockburn, Capt. Benn, Capt. Derenzy, Capt. Gilbert, and a number of officers of the Royal Artillery, Colonel Hawker, Lord Glenlyon, Equerry to Prince Albert, and numerous scientific gentle men, assembled in the marshes at Woolwich on Thursday to witness experiments with a rifle ball one ounce and three quarters in weight, formed in the shape of a sugar loaf, which was found to carry 1,200 yards with decided effect, as at that distance it perforated a target of wood two inches thick, and some of the balls or sugarloaf forms of lead, were dug out of the ground from a depth of several inches, after hav ing passed through the target. Mr. Lancester and his son from previous experiments, had ascertained that the for mation of a ball on the same shape as a eugar-loaf gave it a great advantage over balls of a spherical form, as it re quires less windage, and consequently the momentum is greater with an equal quantity of gunpowder acting on a circular body, which also loses a great part of its force by revolving on its own axis during its progressive motion. This was clearly illustrated during the experiments carried on yesterday by Mr. Lancaster, junior, who, at 1,200 yards' distance, demonstrated that he could carry his balls that great distance, from a rifle more than four calibres less in bore than the common musket, but also that the delocity was so great that the sugarloaf-shaped ball perforated a two-inch board and sunk into the earth of a mound, without in the least degree altering its shape, merely showing a very small fluted abrasion on its tapering part, made by the different degrees of hardness in the grain of the wood. The day was very unfavourable for experiments with balls at long ranges, owing to the strong breeze which prevailed, but the result exceeded the most sanguine expectations of those present. Fifty-seven rounds were fired during the experiments, several of them too low in the first instances, as the parties at the range signalled when they entered the mound after ricocheting, instead of their first range. Mr. Lancaster, Jan., found this out on a subsequent occasion, and had the target removed to a more eligible position, when out of eighteen rounds area, ten entered the target. As a proof of the ex cellent aim at the long range used, it may be mentioned that he hit the target three times in succession, and that en no occasion out of the fifty-seven rounds, were any of the balls above twelve or fifteen feet east or west of the target, but by far the greater majority within from one foot to one yard of the object against which they were directed. The expe riments with a rifle ball of the form alluded to have been so satisfactory, that Mr. Lancaster contemplates making expo. riments with others made to be fired from six-pounder guns; and if the same power and range is obtained by them, the principle will be found an immense saving and of great ad vantage to the British service. Mr. Lancaster makes no secret of the plan. One stroke of this is equal to the _ T rA he p T vr p ir e i H sE a st ir Ez. e ] h — . BnusaEs.—Nzw INvENTIONe.

WALKER'S REPORT ON THE PROPOSED BRIDGE ACROSS THE TAMAR AT SALTASH, OR THE CROSSING AT HAMOAZE. 23, George-street, June 1, 1846. Sir,—l have, in compliance with the instructions of your letter of the 23d ultimo, surveyed the side of the bridge pro posed for crossing the Tamar at Saltash, and considered the plans thereof; I have also considered the alternative plan of crossing by a steam and chain ferry at Hamoaze, and have taken the opinion of the Master Attendant, the Queen's Har bour Master, and others, thereon. It remains now that I report my opinion. First, as to the Saltash Bridge plan. The centre arch of this bridge is designed to be 255 feet span, the side arches of which—there are two on the west and four on the east side of the centre arch—aie each 105 feet span. The two middle piers 20 feet, the ethers 15 feet thick. The clear level height, or the soffitts of the arches above high-water, is by the description 70 feet; but is shown to be 80 feet upon the elevation, of which a reduced copy is drawn upon the accompanying sheet marked (A). The high-water width of the river at the point of crossing is 1,060 feet; at low-water the width is 820 feet. The depth at high-water 68 feet, the rise of tide 16 feet. The velocity of the tidal current is about 2 to 2i knots per hour. In fresshes the ebb is one mile greater. The objections that have been made to the above design are : 1. That the pier would occupy so considerable a portion of the water-way as to increase the velocity of the current, and to prevent the water from attaining its full height - above the bridge. 2. That the piers would be an obstruction to vessels work ing up the river against very light foul winds. 3. That the height would not be sufficient for many of the vessels that now go up the river to the numerous small towns, and to the copper mines. That war vessels could not get above the bridge can scarcely be ranked as a tenable objection, because during the last thirty-five years only two frigates (French) have been laid up so high ; these were taken down again twenty years ago, when, also, the moorings were taken up ; and, which I consider a more decisive answer, because war-vessels to be ]aid in ordinary are dismasted, and there could be no diffi culty, even with the bridge as designed, in tugging the hull of the largest frigate through the centre arch should it ever be thought desirable. Returning, therefore, to the other objections, I consider the greatest, practically, to be the want of height according to the proposed design, even supposing the height to be eighty feet. The trade up is chiefly in coals, timber, and other supplies fbr the copper mines; the down train consists of the produce of the mines. It is carried on chiefly in sloops and barges, but there are also schooners and some brigs, the greatest tonnage of which is from 160 to 200 tons. The total annual number of vessels is about 300. _ _ Having examined the statements of the extreme heights of the vessels, my opinion is that 70 feet or even 80 feet is too low; but that an addition of 15 feet, giving 95 feet in the middle openings, and 92 feet in the two side openings at the high water of neap tides—there would be 100 feet in the middle and 108 feet at half flood—would remove all reason able objection. Even then a few of the largest brigs must strike their top-gallant masts to go up quite at high-water, as their extreme height with these on end exceeds 100 feet ; but such contingencies are not frequent. And it is also to be borne in mind that about half the number of ves sels is now being tugged up ; that the practice of tugging is on the iacrease, and is considered as, on the whole, an eco nom); in time without an increase of expense. If there were any very great difficulty, or even expense, in removing the objection to the diminution of water-way by the spaces which the piers occupy, and the having only one very large arch for navigation, it might be worth while to consider them ; but I do not think either that the design would suffer, or the difficulty and cost be increased, by doing away with all the small arches, and having four arches all of the same size, which will require only three piers, in place of seven arches with six piers; therefore, I recommend this alteration (see accompanying sheet, marked B). And although the bridge will not, for the reasons I have stated, be perfectly harmless, it will be so as to be nearly unobjec tionable, provided the railway object be considered impor tant as a public good. A footway crossing upon the bridge might be a convenience. I now come to the Hamoaze crossing. I have not to inform you that a steam ferry, worked by a chain laid in the bed of the river, has been in use at Hamoaze for ten years. The regular crossings, at every half hour, are continued during the whole of the day. They occupy from six to eight minutes. On the Plymouth aide the sloping stage is run upon the beach, which is rather back from the general line. On the west side it is run upon the slope of a raised bank, which was made by the Ferry Company when the steam ferry was established. It is an unseemly projec tion above the regular surface of the beach, forty six yards long, and extended forty yards within high water, tending to cause a deposit above and below it. A condition with the new company to remove it would be useful. By the present arrangetnenithe — ferriMust stop on a sig nal from any ship that is being transported, until the ship shall have passed, and the authority for the ferry to proceed being signalled. Although the written instructions to the ferry people are of very recent date, this understanding has been acted upon for the whole time, and the delay to the ferry has been very small ; sometimes one stoppage of half an hour to an hour, in the course of a month; sometimes not one in six months. When the ferry vessel is at the shore on either side, she is completely out of the way. Her length is 100 feet, including the hinged flap at each end. Mr. Brunel, who (together with the engineer of the oppos ing line of railway) accompanied me on my survey, informed me that the Railway Company have purchased the property and rights of the Ferry Company, and that their crossing is to be at the same place. The Railway Company's vessel will probably be longer than that of the Ferry Company. This may affect in two ways, as being more in the way in crossing, and projecting farther into the water when the vessel is at her berth. As to the former, the length may be limited; perhaps 60 or 70 yards, exclusive of the flaps, would not be objectionable; and the company might be called upon, if thought expe dient, to make a dock on each side, so that the stern of their vessel should in no case project farther into the stream than the present boat does. of which there never has been any complaint. I think it probable that for their own sake they will do this, so as to enable them to transfer their railway carriages from the railway to rails laid on the deck of the vessel. With these observations, I should consider the Ilamoaze crossing unobjectionable. It may be prudent at the same time that the Admiralty keep a general control and power to make bye-laws for the government of the ferry. I have presumed that in future the public, whether on foot or with carriages, are to be conveyed on the same terms as at present. This will, of course, be attended to, I think it may safely be left to Parliament and the rail way company to select Hamoitze or Saltash for the point of crossing, if the modifications and restrictions which I have recommended at either place be attended to. I have the honour to be, Ice. The Secretary:of the Admiralty. (Signed) is. WALIER. 18, Duke-street; Westminster; June 10; 1846. Bin—The promoters of the Cornwall Railvray Bill have directed me to address you on the subject of the second letter received from you on the part of the Lords Com missioners of the Admiralty by Lord Morpethj the Chairman of the Committee on the Bill: The retlifiremerits specified in this letter, relating to the height of the bridge at galtash, have the effect of at once defeating the Bill; and which would indeed have taken place immediately on receipt of this second letter, if Lord Morpeth had not himself; from the ap parent disagreement between, the two letters from, the Admiralty ; thought that possibly some mistake thight occurred. The promoters believe that such must be the case, and fully confident, particularly after the receipt of the first letter, that their Lordships would net desire to throw any impediment in the way of so useful a public measure as that now before the Committee, they earnestly entreat of their Lordships to consider the peculiar circumstance of the case. The promoters are ready and most anxious to bind them selves to adopt any plan of construction for the proposed bridge that can be required by the Admiralty, but there are technical difficulties which would defeat the Bill if the height is now defined at more than a few feet greater than that shown in the section. The height on the section is 80 feet ; now, without consent of the land owners and occupiers, this cannot be raised to more than 85 feet; such consent can never be obtained during the passing of an opposed Bill, par ticularly when there are small tenements, as a single lodger, or even a person having a reversionary interest in the smallest building, could be brought by the opponents to re fuse his consent. Eighty-five feet at the edge of the shore is therefore the greatest height which can be assumed as within the power of the promoters. From this point the bridge could be made to rise to the centre arches, giving perhaps 5 feet more, or 90 feet, as there are no owners of the river whose consent would be required ; but here again a technical objection will now be raised by the opponents, that such a rise. involving a change in the gradients, requires the eoneent of the Board of Trade, A special meeting of the" scripholders in this Company took place yesterday, at the George and'Vulture Tavern, to consider a commnpicatiod received from the directat in Cadada. It:appears that the. English 'thavrehnlderi •are anxious that the concern should be wohnd up; while the Canadians are determined to carry-cut the objects for which the.Companywas forrhOd: -- - An intimation. having been conveyed to the Canadian directors of the wishes of the English shareholders, that body replied that they were very sorry that they were unable to comply with the wishes of those anxious to wind up the concern ; and they advised that the shareholders should take measures to have themselves represented at a meeting to be held in Montreal next month. Several of th e shareholders repudiated the Canadian directors, and said that they would hold the provisional committee re sponsible to them, for it was under the strength of their names that they had been induced to take shares; while the pro visional committee said that they were only acting in a minis terial capacity, and not accountable for the winding up of the concern, andwere consequently unable to return the deppsits. The meeting broke up without coming to any formal reso lution. It appears that the deposits were 41. a share, and that the shares, instead of being allotted to the number of 47,000, aswas put forward in the prospectus, had been limited to 7,000. PARTY FROM THEIR )ITI2N. from Captain Sturt, stating the probable arrival of himself and part; at Moorundee this day (Jan. 17th), Mr. brown, the bearer. of the-packet, having left them at -Lakeyictoria, awl himself arriving at Mr. Nation'S station on the 12th iastant. Theslett( from Captain Sturt is elated '2lst of December last. U i the preceding day he had reached the Darling, after a most perilous journey from the depot, a distance of 270 miles. He effected his retreat with great difficulty, the first water being 115 miles from the depot. He was absolutely forced to make the at tempt, for the only other alternative was to remain and rot at the old post.' The heat was perfectly horrible, and had they not been providentially visited with a change of wind, and a shower of rain, which cooled the air and ground, they would have perished. They did not, as it turned out, lose even a sheep. After this account of the retreat, Captain Sturt proceeds to de tail the transactions from the time when he was last heard of. It may be remembered, that it was his inten tion to proceed to the north-west, in the hope of finding an inland sea. He says : " I went from the old depot to Lake Torrens, hoping to find a country affording a practicable route to the north, but was disappointed. I returned to the depOt to make a more extensive excursion to the north west. On the 14th of August I left the camp with Mr. Brown and three men, taking fifteen weeks' provisions, but after penetrating to lat. 24 deg. 30 min. and lon. 138 deg., I was obliged to return from the failure both of water and grass. Dr. Brown also suffered greatly from scurvy, but was too high-minded to complain. He is indeed an inestimable young man, and has been as a brother to me. " We passed over a country of alternate sand-hill and flats, until I struck upon a creek, beyond which the country was more open, and more subject to floods ; we crossed over extensive plains, subject to deep inundations, but soon again got on sand hills. From them we de scended to a stony plain of boundless extent, on which the horses left no track, and where no object was visible on the horizon from which to take bearings. Crossing these, we descended to flats, like a ploughed field, on which water had subsided, stretching to the north• east and south-west farther than the range of vision, and with out a blade of vegetation. From this we again ascended sand ridges of most formidable description, and found the country to the west so bad, where we attempted to penetrate in that direction, and surface water so scarce, that we were obliged to turn to the north at fifty miles, with only two small puddles to depend on. I struck a creek which I traced up sixty miles, when I got on a country of salt formation, covered with samphire and other salsolacious productions, with numbers of dry beds of lagoons, as white as snow with salt. Passing this, we once more found ourselves among sand ridges, per fectly insurmountable, so close that the base of one touched the base of another—the whole country sand. The sand-hills were of a fiery red, and they ran, for miles and miles, in parallel rows, with points like the vanishing points of an avenue. But there was neither grass nor water to be found, and after trying all points of the compass I gave it up, and returned to the depot, after an absence of seven weeks and a ride of 924 miles. " The men were all knocked up, and the horses per fectly leg weary; but I was dissatisfied with this journey, and there was little time for hesitation. Therefore, after giving the animals six days' rest, I left the camp with Mr. Stewart, leaving Mr. Brown in charge of the camp, whose readiness to do anything I wished lightened my labours. I took two men, and nine weeks' provisions, my objects being to try to enter the tropics, to ascertain if there was any water between me and the north coast, or if the desert extends to the very tropics. I went due north, and struck a most splendid creek at 123 miles from the depot. Here I had a thunder storm that lasted half an hour, and left some surface water, de- ' pendent on which, I crossed it, and ran out 170 miles without finding a single channel for conveyance of water. I dug five wells, but had little hope of benefiting from them. I was at length brought up by a stony desert, that stretched before us in absolute boundlessness. Where there were sand-hills in it before, the sand-hills were now covered with stone, similar to the plain itself. I was in the centre of a dark and adamantine sea, with out an object by which to steer my course. I was 41 miles advanced in this gloomy region, and 52 from water. My horses had already been . one day without water, and I could not hope to reach the other water under a day and a half, including part of the night; yet I hesitated to turn back. It was an irresistible influence that drove me back, certainly contrary to my own inclinations. I was well nigh too late. I lost three horses, but that was of no consequence on such an occasion. I got back to the creek, after having reached latitude 25 deg. 45 min., and longitude 139 deg. 13 min. " From the creek on which I was, I had seen high and broken ranges to the north-east, and I now deter mined on examining them and the creek. I therefore went up the latter 120 miles, but I found that it was leading me away from the ranges, and I ultimately got to its termination, or rather head, in some extensive plains. The creek was as large as the Darling, and was flanked by a box-tree forest, in grassy land, to a con siderable distance from its banks. Here I fell in with a numerous population, passing three or four small tribes every day ; but the news of our kind treatment of them had spread through the country, and they evinced no alarm, but did all they could to serve us. " On the 3d October I was at the head of the creek, and all at once found myself in presence of about 270 or 280 natives, encamped on a rising piece of ground, under a large sand hill I had descended. On seeing us they set up a great shout ; but when I rode slowly down the hill, there was a dead silence ; then I dismounted, and giving my horse to one of the men, walked over to the natives, who received me very kindly, brought me troughs of water and baked seeds, and invited me to sleep at one of their fires ; but observing a small clump of trees about fifty yards away from the native camp, I told them that I would sleep there, to which they gave a ready assent, and carried over fire-wood for our use, which was very scarce. These people were the finest I have seen in Australia. Many stood six, several more than six feet high. They were well made, and had not the pot bellies of the natives in general. They were frank and merry people, and told me all they could. They assured me there was no water to the east or north, and were quite distressed when I persisted next day in going to the eastward. The women were engaged to a late hour in bruising seed for !cakes, and the noise they made was like the working of looms in a manufac turing town. At ten, all was hushed, and, for the re mainder of the night, no one would have known that there were so many human beings near. " From this point I turned westward, and turning up a branch creek, went towards the ranges ; but 1 got into a terrible country, and found the effects of refrac tion had deceived me with regard to the ranges, and that they were nothing but masses of sand or rock, three to five hundred feet high. I saw that I was get ting near the scene of the greatest turmoil, where the water passed over this dreary waste, and left the shivered fragments of mountains behind it. Here again water u a t n sh t i e r and grass failed me, and I was forced to abandon this g k a i o n n s t th eati r ;2lnded 9 e th t season a n dd o s fo again na llovember, en adrr uevson, try contend ingtas a , y r b t i h s e k a iin t o: li f d a b u :e a n i d i a n n ob g e nl s ee l t t a h t o llo e s - 1 alto gether elrcocuutldodffo: last drop of mud—for it was not water—outof a pool that four weeks before w as 150 yards broad, and 200 to 300 long. I lost two horses, and regretted them very much. I reached the depot (which Mr. Brown had been obliged to move during my absence, in consequen ce of the p_u tridity of the water) on the 17th, having ri dden 843 miles in five weeks, l ess th re e days.

"Another gentleman, says the South Australian Register, from which the above is extracted, has fa voured us with the following note from the Gallant Captain, which forms an appropriate pendant to the foregoing communication: — "'The Ana Branch of the Darling, sth Jan., 1846. "' I have, as you will hear, done nothing but toil through a desert that I believe is unequalled in the world. My investigations, however, were geographical, not with any direct view of finding good land, and as far as the geography of the interior goes, I think there will not be much difficulty, from the data I shall be en abled to furnish, to make a pretty good guess as to what the greater portion of it is. All I can say is, that this has been one of the most difficult and anxious tasks that could have fallen to the lot of any man. " For myself, thank God, lam getting better.

OF FIRES IN G LA SGOW.--The fires that have taken place in Glasgow, exclusive of Gorbals and Anderston, for the year ending May 31, 1846, are in number 113. With one or two exceptions, all of them have been of a trifling nature. The number of fires in twelve months has nearly doubled in four years. In 1842, there were 62 fires ; in 1843, 75 ; in 1844, 86 ; in 1845, 101 ; and in 1846, 113. Thus fires are increasing in a greater ratio than either Population or manuactares.—Glanoto aturior.

The Fourth Annual Report of the Commissioners of Public Works, on the subject of the fisheries of Ireland has just been presented to both Houses of Parliament by command of her Majesty. This report, with the ap pendix, oceupies a large blue book ; but the result of it. is, that, throughout 1845, there has been, on the whole,. the same steady though slow progress towards improve ment in the general fisheries of the country, to which allusion was made in the preceding report. The Com missioners conclude their observations with these re marks and proposals (in speaking of the salmon fisheries and the close season):— _ . " To the proposition of a uniform close season for the sea and tideways, we apprehend no well-founded objec. tion can be advanced. " But a slight department of uniformity in the upper or fresh-water portions of the rivers, however apparently calculated to give rise to jealousies, will, we eenceive, be found upon investigation, judicious, and, in fact, to be the most expedient compromise (for such only It mist be considered) that can be adopted. not " We are strongly impressed with theimportance,. only to the public, but also to the parties. locthauy or possessed of exclusive rights, of having the riversinterested fully and of the stocked with a supply of early breeding a consequent necessity of ceasing o f d of the autumn. g li kinds of fishing for salmon at an early Id on the whole, be attended month of January would, good • and the few persons who evil than v with more ewe believe, that to open any part of the " Further, of the old laws, or by acting con. under the provisions . largely in the benefits have heretofore derived advantage therefrom, either arise from an improved system, efficient l y carri e d cer tain to arise and will be amply rewarded for any temporary loss trary to law, will participate inout, they may sustain in being prevented from fishing in that month. We therefore propose— " 1. That in the upper or fresh-water portions of rivers throughout Ireland, there shall be a uniform close season as regards every mode of fishing for salmon, from the 15th of September to the last day of February in clusive. " 2. That in the sea and tideways there shall be an uniform close season from the Ist of September to the 31st of January inclusive. "3. That all net fishing for salmon and trout shall cease in the upper portion of rivers on the 31st of August ; and, that angling only for the fish shall be per- mitted until the 15th of September. " Some doubt has been expressed whether angling might not be permitted to a later period than the 15th of September. But, after due consideration, we are opposed to any such extension, which would be an exceeding by so much, of the open period fixed for the greater part of Scotland by the Act 9 George 111. " lf, in conjunction with a due observance of the limi tation above proposed, suitable migration passes be left even in what are considered the best rivers in Ire land, and due protection be afforded during the close season we confidently predict that in the course of a very few years the parties most interested will find, in the itrt provement of the fisheries, that their advantage has beat been consulted in the refusal to accede to the full extent of their demands. " We wish further to repeat, and to impress upon the attention of all parties, that the rivers are the natural nurseries, not merely for the fisheries within their banks and at their mouths, but also for the public fisheries on the coasts, and that the times to be allowed for fishing therein must be regulated by a consideration of what is best, on the whole, for the public interest."
