CHARLES WRIGHT, Clerk to the Visiting Justices UNITED STATES EXPEDITION IN SEARCH OF SIR JOHN FRANKLIN. At a recent meeting of the New York Geographical and Statistical Society, the Hon. George Bancroft in the chair, Lieutenant (late Dr.) Kane, U.S.N., read a highly interesting paper on " Access to a North Polar Sea, viewed in connexion with the Search after Sir John Franklin." " Down to the present time," said the speaker, "the North Pole has been regarded with mysterious awe. All investigation seems shut out, and all curiosity repressed by a a barrier of eternal ice." Dr. Kane then proceeded to an interesting critical examination of the theories of ancient' and modern navigators respecting the Polar Sea, referring frequently to maps of his own construction, a number of which were affixed to the walls. "To make the north-west passage has been the favourite dream of navigators, but to this day the attempt has always been attended with failure. Parry, a late navigator, with a daring unequalled, attempted to cross the ice on sledges, but his attempt was wholly unsuccessful. Recent disco veries render it beyond a doubt certain that Sir John Franklin. wintered at the mouth of Wellington Chan nel. This has been ascertained by recent discoverers, and, among others, by Captain Penny, an enterprising whaler ; but, alas ! here all trace of him is lost, and nothing remains but the lonely graves of his companions. The squadron of Sir Edward Belcher, which is on a voyage of discovery, may do much, but I confess that I am not sanguine as to the result. The Hon. Henry Grinnell, the president of this society, has done me the honour of appointing me to the command of one of his vessels, the Advance, and I have in contemplation a new expedition. My plan of travel is based upon the exten sion of Greenland to the far north, and, though this hypothesis is not sustained by all geographers. yet recent discoveries all tend to confirm it. Believing in this ex tension, and feeling that the approximation of the meri dians would make access to a great Polar Sea far more easy, I propose this as my plan of search :—My party will consist of 30 picked men. Our provision will be composed of pemmican, a preparation of dried deer's flesh. The brig furnished by Mr. Grinnell is admirably fitted for our purpose, and peculiarly adapted for the exigen cies of our expedition. On our route we take in some Esquimaux dogs, together with sledges, and a few natives to manage them." This is not merely a voyage of search. The vast advantages which will accrue to the cause of science from this expedition cannot be too highly estimated. Dr. Kane concluded the reading of his paper with a complimentary allusion to the course pursued by the Secretary of the Navy with reference to his contem plated expedition. The Rev. Dr. HAWKS then rose and made a brief but pertinent address.—" Every one," said he, "must feel an interest in this expedition. Lieutenant Kane is to embark upon no holyday voyage ; he is to venture upon an unknown sea, encompassed on every side with difficulty, danger, and death, and I know that there is not an American heart which will not join in the prayer—God speed ! I feel proud of my countryman; he has proved his claim to the respect of his country by his labours in the great cause of humanity." Dr. Hawks then read the following resolu tion :—" That the society regards with grateful interest the exertions of the Secretary of the Navy in advancing the knowledge of physical geography, and that they especially tender their thanks for the liberality with which he has lent his aid to the expedition destined for the Arctic Seas. That the society appoint a committee of five for the promotion of the interests of the expedition, and that they be instructed to confer with the Secretary of the Navy and the Smithsonian Institute." The above resolution being seconded and adopted, the society ad journed, after a vote of thanks to Dr. Kane for his able and interesting paper. MELANCHOLY GUN ACCIDENT.—A young lady, named Pring, daughter of a respectable farmer, living near Honiton, Devonshire, was accidentally shot .by her cousin, oh Christmas-day. The deceased was standing in the porchway of her father's house, being about to visit her grandfather, to spend the Christmas-day in company with her relations and Mends, when a young man—her cousin—discharged a gun (which he had been examining) from the kitchen, the contents of which en tered the young lady's head, causing instant death. There were two ladies standing by her side, who received slight injuries. The young man did not know the gun was loaded ; and, as might be imagined, was over whelmed with grief at the fatal and distressing accident, of which he was the unwitting instrument. ANOTHER LAMENTABLE GUN ACCIDENT.—We take the following from the Madras U. S. Gazette of Nov. 26 :—" In our last we announced the death of the young Marquis of Lisboa, a midshipman of her Majesty's ship Hastings, from the effects of an accident when out shooting with a brother midshipman, Prince Ernest of Saxe Leiningen. The jury brought in a verdict at the adjourned inquest on Wednesday, that the deceased met his death "of homicide by misadventure." Wit nesses proved that the unfortunate young gentleman, before they entered the house, after their sport, dis charged both barrels of one of the guns which they had been using, and brought it in, and that Prince Ernest, when he took a gun up afterwards, supposed that it was the one which he knew to have been discharged. Un happily it was the other, which had been placed in a corner of the room in its loaded state. After death the injury sustained was found to be so extensive as to have precluded all chance of recovery, the bones forming the socket of the right eye being fractured by the shot, and points of bone driven inwards, whereby the brain itself had become extensively inflamed and disorganised, and there were two dots of effused blood pressing on the brain." DEATH OF KOSSUTH'S MOTHER.—The above highly respected lady departed this life about nine o'clock on Tuesday morning in her temporary residence in Brussels. She had been seriously ill for some weeks but yesterday some strong hopes of her recovery were entertained by her medical attendants, one of whom was Dr. Perkins, a long-established English resident, and who is distinguished by his kind attentions to the various exiles in this city. Some unpleasant rumours are afloat respecting the refu sal of the Belgian government to allow of her son's coming over to this country, unless he consented to be constantly accompanied during his stay in Belgium by a police officer. It is understood that the venerable lady herself urged her illustrious son not to submit to so de grading a condition. For the sake of the Belgian go vernment, and for the honour of Belgium itself, it is to be hoped that those rumours are exaggerated. OVERLAND MAIL. The following is the letter of the. Times corre spondent at Bombay, dated Dec. 3 : Our latest accounts from Burmah extend to the 18th November. Everything remained in statu quo. " The General-in-Chief was still at Rangoon, and Sir John Cheape was commanding at Promo, lying on his oars, and forbidden to move a step." There was no other sign of life in the campaign than the constant arrival at Rangoon of fresh troops from India, and the dispatch of reinforcements thence to Prome, where there was no enemy to en counter. Nearly six weeks after the occupation of Prome, and four " after the Burmese General had surrendered himself to us, and reported that the Burmese army near that town consisted of a rabble of 4,000 or 5,000 men, who were only waiting for the excuse of a few shot from our guns to decamp, everything continued in the same state of lethargic abeyance." About 1,100 men, with two heavy guns, had been. dispatched on board the Bentinck, Ner budda, Damooda, and Mahanuddy, to occupy Pegu. One of these steamers had been sent pre viously to reconnoitre, and had returned with four war boats without finding it necessary to fire a shot. No resistance couldtherefore be anticipated, but General Godwin had accompanied the detachment for the purpose of chronicling its achievments in his usual style. Everything was quiet at Prome and Ran goon. The garrison of the former town has expe rienced noikolestationdaising the month they have now occupied Ab- tliZiigit there *ere rumours of an enemy hovering round Rangoon," they were believed to arise from exaggerated re ports of the bodies of dacoits who were roaming over the . country. On the first of November three natives were killed at Rangoon by the accidental explosion of a small magazine in the great Pagoda. A spirited affair has taken place near Henzada, a large town situate on the right bank of the Irra waddy, near the apex of its delta. A Burmese force (said to be 3,000 strong) had encamped against it, and threatened to attack and burn it. The in habitants applied for protection to one of the de tachments proceeding up the river from Rangoon to Promo. The officer applied to (Captain Becher) had under his command his company (No. 7) cf the 40th Bengal Native Infantry, which he imme diately landed on his own responsibility, and marched towards the spot where the Burmese were encamped. The moment, however, that the enemy caught sight of the red-coats they fled, with the men of the 40th after them. The ground was, however, most difficult, the Burmese taking a course through high fields of dhan, and at last reaching the jungles, into which Captain Becher very wisely forbore to follow them. He, however, bivouacked his men in the vicinity of the town, and had the satisfaction of learning the next morning that the Burmese had decamped. Much uncertainty and difference of opinion pre vails regarding the future prospects of the campaign and the extent to which annexation will be carried. Annexation to some extent seems admitted to be inevitable, and, if territory be annexed at all, it should clearly include the shortest line between the Aeng Pass and the Irrawaddy. Captain Phayre, the Commissioner of Arracan, has been specially summoned to Calcutta by the Governor-General, and of course the quidnuncs are already speculating as to the exact date upon which he will appear in the Gazette as Commissioner of Pegu. Lieutenant Ardagh, Assistant to the Commissioner of Moul mein, has already arrived in Rangoon to assume civil charge of the city, and everything appears to indicate that the final measure is at hand. The Englishman and Citizen mention a report that the Governor-General is about to visit our frontier provinces of Assam and Sylheet, to observe the working- of the non-re g ulation system, which is said to have received adevelopment in these dis tricts which would serve as a model for the ad ; ministration of the • conquered and ' cognate pro vinces of the Burmese Empire. As regards the future prospects of the campaign, the Friend of India states, that' " having wasted the rainy season we have now lost all chance of striking a blow at the capital for the next eight months—that is, till next rains." This is not exactly the case. It is certainly much to be regretted that the sea son should have been wasted during which an ad vance on Ava might have been made exclusively by water and with the support of powerful steam ers ; but that is now done, and the Governor- General seems to have no intention of remaining for eight months inactive, waiting till the river should rise, as General Godwin ' waited' till it should fall. Extensive preparations are being made for a combined advance by land and water. I men tioned in my last that 250 elephants had been des patched from Calcutta to Prome, via the Aeng Pass, furnished with cradles for carrying the guns and stores of three batteries, and it is now reported that a second detachment of elephants is being col lected at Moulmein for similar purposes. The flo tilla of native river boats is being rapidly augmented and three additional river steamers had been or dered from the Hooghly to the Irrawaddy. Those that have suffered most from previous service have been sent to Calcutta for repair, and are to take back with them a number of flat-bottomed troop' and store boats. As soon as these preparations are complete an ad vance will take place with a l an d an d a water c o l umn , as in the last war. It is true that the flotilla will be proportionately much stronger than it was on the former occasion—it will, probably, include eight or nine . small steamers instead of one, but the rate of progress will of course be ruled by that of the land column. Nautical men are, how ever, of opinion that, with a more energetic com mander it would be still practicable to send by water as large a force as is required for the coer cion of Ava. Four small river steamers are at pre sent taking about 1,200 men up the little river leading to Pegu, and these same steamers, together with the three in orders for the Hooghly, and the Nemesis and the Phlegethon, might with equal ease take double that number to Ava, without reckoning their capabilities for towing one or two troop boats a-piece. It is not expected that th e King of Ava will make any bon4 fide overtures for peace until our forces are at least as near to his capital as they were at the conclusion of the last war. An Eastern prince or chief, even though he should meditate no active resistance, usually considers it a point of honour not to give in until his enemy is close to his gates. A c hi e f i n Rajpootana or Oude will often refuse to pay his tribute, and will hold out till a regular force has its guns in Position against his strong hold ; h e will then " come in" and apologise for the trouble he has given by saying that he never dreamt "the Sircar," of opposingbut that he would have been irretrievably disgraced in the eyes of his equals if he had given in a moment sooner than his pre decessors had done under similar circumstances. Lord Falkland has returned to Bombay from the Mahableshwur Hills after his usual eight months' annual absence from the seat of Government. It i s understood that an early opportunity will be taken in the new Parliament of bringing the Ba roda scandals again under discussion. Letters from Baroda state that the Guicowar having failed to crush Colonel Outran] has had re course to " enchantments," which he hopes will re sult in the death of the gallant officer. He has already advanced 10,000 rupe es to some Brahmins from the north-west, and has promised them 20,000 rupees more if they succeed in effecting the desired object. The Brahmins, it is said, perform their in cantations dressed in robes dipped in buffalo's blood, and will, probably, protract so profitable an amusement as long as possible. Our new Com mander-in-Chief has arrived at Bombay, also Ge neral Somerset, from the Cape. The article on the conduce of the Burmese war, which appeared in the Times of the sth of October, completely embodies the opinions universally enter tained on the subject in India. The Friend of India says regarding it :—" If the article had been written at the seat of war instead of in England, the writer could not more truthfully have described the contemptible spectacle which the expedition presents, and the great and glaring errors which have been committed. He appears to possess a kind of clairvoyant faculty of discerning the real state of affairs at a distance of many thou sand miles, and he exhibits an intuitive insight into the motives and the causes which have led to our disappointment. There can be no doubt that the article will exercise a very powerful influence on public opinion at home, and it ought therefore to exert a corresponding influence on public councils in India." The Calcutta Englishman says :—" Opinions here agree with those of the Times as to the need less delays and waste of time and money which have already taken place, and which are not likely to terminate 'even now, unless a change occurs in the command of the forces. Reports to that effect have been in circulation, but voluntary relinquish ment of so good an appointment is not to be ex pected, and there may be difficulties in the way of a compulsory supersession." The reports alluded to by the Englishman that General Godwin has been written to in such terms as would compel his resignation, and that his recall was actually on its way to him, have been confi dently repeated by the Bombay Times and other Indian papers. I cannot, however, discover that they have any stronger foundation than the uni versal wish that they were true, and the general belief that no real progress can be made in the campaign until some such step is taken. " Some thing, however, must be done," says the Friend of India, and " That speedily, not so much to con quer Burmah, which is already at our feet, as to regain the reputation which our Government has lost." "If ever there was a clear and brilliant prospect of bringing a war in India to a speedy and successful issue, it was in this case of the se cond Burmese war, in which we are now engaged." . . "We have now reached Prome, four months after we ought to have been there, and we are as idle at that town as we were at Rangoon, for five months, and we have lost the chance of strik ing a blow at the capital for the next eight months, and simply because the military and naval autho rities could not, or would not, co-operate, and the former wished that a steamer had never been seen on the Irrawaddy." The circumstance of General Godwin having deemed it necessary or even expedient that a force of nearly 4,000 British troops should for weeks await reinforcements before venturing to attack a scarcely larger number of any enemy (and that enemy the Burmese), posted within two hours' march of their lines, is certainly most injurious to the votige of our armi,ia, th,9_,lrast„„ alyl has naturally excited a feeling of intense dissatak-' tion throughout the Indian army. By the latest accounts the Burmese force before Prome had been so encouraged by General Godwin's diffidence that they actually meditated taking the initiative them selves and attacking a British force, now reinforced so considerably above their own number. Our spies report that the Governor of Menyday had written to the commander of the Burmese forces before Prome, " What are you doing ? if you don't intend to fight, you had better fall back upon me." His answer was, " I'll fight;" and a day was fixed for the attack, but the priests suggested that the attack should be deferred to a more propitious day, which they were themselves to determine. In con sequence of this intelligence our regiments are kept in constant preparation day and night, waiting to be attacked by a force which Sir Archibald Camp bell would not have hesitated to march upon and disperse with a single company of Queen's troops. Our force at Prome is now twice as strong as that with which General Godwin's " late lamented Commander-in-Chief " • won his last battle (and that against tenfold odds) almost under the walls of Ava. EGYPT. ALEXANDRIA, DEC. 20.—His Highness Abbas Pasha has left Cairo for Benha, a town on the Damietta branch of the Nile, for change of air, and to expedite the railway works, for the comple tion of which he shows great solicitude. The ma terials for the railroad are arriving fast from Glas gow, and they are forwarded to the several parts of the country without delay, so that within two years of this time the line between Alexandria and Cairo will be completed. The best understanding continues to prevail be tween Abbas Pasha and the Sultan, and the latter has every reason to be satisfied with the Viceroy's servility. Abbas Pasha has to pay 6 per cent. in terest on the loan of 285,0001. he has effected in England to accommodate the Sultan, who will have no scruple in not refunding him the interest, and Abbas Pasha will not think of pressing his Imperial Highness for it. Prices of produce are rising very fast, and wheat is worth 355. per quarter, without freight. Ship ping is much wanted, and freights are at Bs. 6c1.. per quarter. Notwithstanding the recent large importations of specie, the exchange on London keeps at 98i piastres per pound sterling. [PRICE 5 D . street wider, straighter, and better than the street which they contemplated, and on .the upper instead of the lower level, they might permit them to take the property that was voted by Parliament to carry out the lesser improvement, and apply it in aid of the more extensive improvements contemplated by that company. (Hear, hear.) If they left -the street commissioners to proceed by themselves, they would only effect imperfect im provements at a great expense ; but if they and the company combined together, the benefits resulting would be more than sufficient to countervail the expense. (Hear.) To get rid of the present difficulty the directors might enter into an arrangement with some large con tractor to execute the work on the condition that he should be paid olie-half in money and one-half in shares. It was true that by a contract entered into in that way they ,would not have the same advantages they would pos sess if different contractors were to compete for the work, and the question they had to consider was the balance of advantages in each case. If those who had taken 500 shares would take 1,000, and if the directors, who said they would dispose of 100,000 shares, agreed to dis pose of 200,000, they would be able to dispense with the assistance of a contractor ; but the time was very short ; they were within two days of the 31st, and the deed should be deposited on that day. (Hear, hear.) He had given an explanation of the project to Baron Roths child, and also to Lord John Russell, who had devoted two hours of his valuable time to hear his statement, and though it would be improper to ask the noble lord to leave higher pursuits to attend there, he had his autho rity to say that, believing the undertaking would be beneficial to his constituents, he wished it success. He was asked, if the great railway companies did.not concur with them , whence was the profit to be derived ? Look ing.to this railroad, ig,the absence of the Ancurrence of the great railway campanies, except the Great Northern, he would consider what would be the extent of the re turns from it. They should recollect that the arrange ment with the Great Northern was, that they were to have the exclusive use, for short passengers, of their line as far as Potter's-bar, for the running of their trains, and, in exchange for that, they were to give them the exclusive use of one set of rails, and a station in Far ringdon-street, for their long passengers—he meant those who came from the distant provinces. His convic tion was, that if .they made a great iron highway into the centre of the metropolis, with cheap, frequent, and punctual trains—trains that would go every quarter of an hour both ways, or sixty trains each day, at a penny per mile for first class, and a halfpenny per mile for second class, to begin with, and when the shareholders should have paid up ten per cent., at one halfpenny per mile for first class, and a farthing per passenger per mile for the second class, they would attract an extraordinary amount of passen gers. (Hear, hear, hear.) His object was to have a railway that would bring persons into the metropolis in the morning and take them out in the evening. A mi gratory population of that kind travelled more than any other class of the community. Assuming that 10,000 persons should be the number who travelled by their line each day—and he was satisfied that out of 200,000 per sons who now came in and went out of the city each day a greater number would travel by their line than the number he had stated—but assuming the number to be 10,000, that would yield a clear revenue of 600,000/. And supposing that he even struck off one-half, it would still leave to them 5 or 6 per cent. on the capital em ployed, and he was satisfied that in the course of some years the revenue would be so enormous that it would be sufficient to make great improvements in the metropolis. He was satisfied that in three years they would have 30,000 persons coming in and going out of London each day, but if they had only 10,000 passengers they would yield a remuneration of. 10 per cent. for the capital ex pended on the accomplishment of the work. If they could not carry out the project at present, they would return every gentleman his money on the 7th of January ; and then they would have to consider what course they would take with regard to it next year. If gentlemen should wish to proceed next year, it was desirable that they should leave half-a-crown each in the treasurer's hands for the disbursement of expenses. If the directors could not at present effect the object, they would call tTe shareholders together early in January ; they would'iilace before them a plan for futifie proceed ings, and each gentleman would be at liberty to take the whole of the money, or leave the halfbrown, just as he desired. (Hear, hear.) Baron ROTHSCHILD, M.P., had derived not only plea sure, but instruction, from listenining to the statement of Mr. Pearson. It was only by heitingilike explana tion that a person could really understand the magnitude of his project, and the great benefit, tbat_might be de rived from it. He had "acted as trustee, thinking it to be his duty, as 14005 f :their representatives, to see that so important a pThject should be carried out, but he had not taken any part in it financially, because it was a rule with their house to carry through whatever they under took, and this being a project of great magnitude con nected with the city of London, it was not one to be taken up by any person at the head of a large establish ment like himself. He was, however, aware of the great good it would do, and if he could assist this great undertaking he should be most happy and only think it his duty to do so. Whatever decision the company might come to, he, as their trustee, would be bound to attend to it, and he hoped that they would in some way be guided by the very honest and enlightened views of the gentleman who had just addressed them. He was quite sure that every word he said in regard to the pro fitable returns of the undertaking, and to the good that was to be derived from it, he sincerely believed, and and thought he had no other motive in bringing it for ward but that of doing good. , Sir J. DUKE was sorry the subscriptions were not so large as bad been expected, but the love of gold and other schemes no doubt, as was stated, occupied public attention. He trusted, however, that the public would come forward and enable them to do what Mr. Pearson anticipated. On the motion of Mr. GODDART, seconded by Mr. WILLIAMS, the following resolution was passed unani mously :—" That this meeting repose full confidence in the board of directors of the City Terminus Company, and, having heard the report, are of opinion that the propriety of their adopting the measures suggested therein may be properly left to their decision ; and, in the event of their not being able to effect arrangements to their satisfaction in time to make the requisite depo sits, this meeting are of opinion that a meeting should be called by the directors on an early day in the month of January, to bring before them a detailed proposal for their future proceedings." ' A vote of thanks was passed to Mr. Pearson, and the meeting separated. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, DEC. 29. Termagant, 24, screw-frigate, Captain Gifford, is lying at the Jetty, and very busy, landing guns, shot, and stores. The. Russian 50-gun frigate Pallas hauled off to her hulk this morning. Simoom, 18, iron screw steam-troop-ship, Captain Kingcome, is in the steam-basin, landing machinery for the screw line-of-battle ship Duke of Wellington. London, 92, Captain Munday, is in the angle dock. She has had her bottom cleaned, and presents to the eye one of the finest specimens of naval architecture ; such a combination of power and sym metry rarely falls to our lot to witness. She is sister ship to the Rodney and Nile, and built from the design of Sir Robert Seppings. She is truly a " model ship." . _ Foul weather set in again this morning, and it has been blowing hard from the southward the whole day. The ships of war at Spithead have struck topgallantmasts and made all snug for the night. Wind,. south, and looking very wild. The foremast of the wrecked Flower of Ugie, Captain Mather, still remains above water to the, eastward of Southsea Castle. Such weather as we have had to-day must soon break her up, for she is rolling about fear fully, with a tremendous sea on. There are nearly a hundred merchant vessels at the Mother-bank, weather-bound. Lloyd's agents at this port need not care twopence about the "gold diggings" of Australia. PLYMOUTH, DEC. 28. Dido, 18, Captain W. H. A. Morshead, was towed out of harbour to-day by the Confiance, steam-tug. She is expected to sail again for the Pacific about the sth or 6th of next month. Hogue, 58, screw steam-guard-ship, Captain Ramsay, has been removed to moorings above Torpoint this day. About 30 convicts have been brought in from Dart moor, and embarked on board the Edward, convict - ship, this afternoon. She now awaits her sailing orders. Valorous, steam-frigate, will be taken into No. 5 Dock to-morrow morning, to lighten and clean her bottom ; and the Nile,. 92, will be floated the same tide into No. 4 Dock, and placed close to the head of the dock, in order to lengthen her stern. The William Metcalf, timber-ship, has been got off with assistance from the dockyard, without injury. Several barques have been driven on shore and some sunk above New Passage, but no lives lost. The Earl of Mount Edgecombe is amongst the sufferers ; one of his largest boats, propelled by wheels, broke adrift from her moorings, and became a total wreck. SHEERNESS, DEC. 29. Her Majesty's screw steam line-of-battle ship Aga memnon, of 91 guns, Captain Sir Thomas Maitland, was warped out of the fitting basin yesterday at noon, and moored at her harbour moorings for completing her armament and stores. On leaving the basin her draught was—forward 20 feet, and aft 21 feet 2 inches. This magnificent ship had only 10 inches spare room on each side in passing through the basin entrance. Active pre parations are being made to enable her to receive her complete armament and stores. Previous to leaving the basin her steam was got up and engines tried for some time. One of the large mooring bollards by which she was secured in the basin was, during the gale, started from the immense iron framing in which it was fixed, and partially upset. Her Majesty's vessel Rattlesnake was commissioned yesterday by Commander Henry Trollope. The Pay master, Mr. S. S. Spark, also took up his commission yesterday. Her Majesty's screw steam guard-ship, Horatio, of 24 guns, Captain the Hon. S. Carnegie, was yesterday transported from her berth taken up after parting from her moorings formerly occupied by her Majesty's ship Wellington, where she will remain until the defective moorings have been repaired, when she will again take her harbour moorings. WOOLWICH, DEC. 29. It is now certain that Vice-Admiral Hyde Parker, C. 8., and Captain Alexander Milne, Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty under the Earl of Derby's Administra tion, have been appointed to fill the same offices in the Earl of Aberdeen's Administration. The reappointment of these experienced naval officers to be Lords Commis sioners of the Admiralty has given great satisfaction to the service, as they will be better able to judge the merits of the cases which have already been before the Board than could have been expected by an entirely new Board, or even the members of a previous Board, when several months have elapsed since they held office. The re-appointment of Captain Alexander Milne under the former Administration was considered highly advanta geous, and the re-appointment of Vice-Admiral Hyde Parker and the Junior Naval Lord on the present oc casion is considered of still greater advantage. The Imperieuse, 50, screw steam-frigate, Captain Rundle Burges Watson, C. 8., will be, ready to go out of dock on Saturday, January 1, 1453; and will be taken out on that day, $ or on Monday 'next, accord ing as the tide rises sufficiently for the purpose. The following lieutenants, appointed to the Impe riettos,, have taken ?lip their commissions ,and joined at Woolwich :—Fint-Lieutenant M'Leod Baynes Cockcraft (1844), recently First-Lieutenant of the Spite ful abeam sloop on the Mcditerrancan station ; Lieut. Wm. Phipps (1846), recently serving in the Indefatig able, 50, on particular service ; Lieut. Henry J. Blom field (1847) ; Lieut. Thomas M. S. Pasley (1850), from the Victory flag-ship at Portsmouth ; and Lieut. Vis count Gilford (1852), recently promoted from Mate of the Royal Victoria and Albert steam-yacht ; Boatswain Philip Blackwell is appointed to this vessel, vice Lang ley, superseded, being a boatswain of the first class. The Firebrand, steam-frigate, Captain Hyde Parker, has been very successful in nearly completing her crew, being only a few able seamen short, and hias had ample choice for all other classes. The crew is at present accommodated on board the Hecate, steam sloop, in the inner basin, and there being so much work to do on board the Firebrand, it is expected the officers and crew will be turned over to the Terrible, as she will be ready several weeks before the Firebrand, and it is desirable that that powerful steamer should join the Channel squadron as early as possible. Captain Hyde Parker would have no difficulty in completing his crew up to the number required for the Terrible long previous to her being ready for service. The Resistance troop-ship, Master Commander Brad shaw, has nearly completed a thorough refit at this dock yard, and will soon be ready for the conveyance of troops. Boatswain Turner has been appointed to her, and joined the vessel. Sergeant Avery, of the Chatham division of Royal Marines, has been appointed Schoolmaster Sergeant to the Woolwich division, vice Schoolmaster Sergeant J. A. Bute, retired from the service. CONVICTS FOR WESTERN AUSTRALIA.—The Pyrenees convict-ship, Surgeon Superintendent Bowyer, embarked 55 male convicts from the Warrior convict-ship at Wool wich dockyard, and 35 male convicts from the Defence convict-ship at the Royal Arsenal, for conveyance to Western Australia, and went down the river the same day on her voyage. THE MEDITERRANEAN. MALTA, DEC. 24. We have no news of the fleet since our last issue. There is a report indeed that the Albion, which vessel lost her topmast and sails during the gale by which the fleet was surprised, may come up to replace them. Cer tain it is that the dockyard employes are engaged in pro viding new ones, and equally certain it is, if very current report is to be depended upon, that owing to a want of spars of sufficient size two that have already been con demned are being made ready for the occasion : a pretty substitute truly, and one showing how the Government money is expended. Nor is this the only matter to be complained of. There is not enough copper in the store to be available in case of necessity, the greater portion having been em ployed in new-coppering the Shearwater, which vessel, as is very well known, is not worth one-half the amount expended upon her. The arrivals of the various packets due form the only items of naval intelligence, viz., Medina, from Corfu, and Triton, from Alexandria, with their several mails. THE NEw ELECTRIC WIRES.—For the last few days, a number of men connected with the Electric Telegraph Company's works have been laying down the new elec tric wires through Westminster, the Strand, and the curb-way in Fleet-street, Ludgate-hill, St. Paul's Churchyard, and Cheapside, to the General Post-office, St. Martin's-le-Grand. The new wires are 25 in num ber, forming the appearance of an open cable, and are not only galvanised over, but coated in gutt a percha, and covered over with saturated tar tape, which pre vents the slightest atmospheric or damp attraction. These wires pass through the iron pipes or tubes which were laid down a few months ago, so that they are completely protected from any injury. This new system is now being generally adopted by the company, and the wires are now being established from nearly one end of the country to the other by the facilities afforded by the rail way lines. Shortly, the submarine telegraph from Lymington to her Majesty' s res id ence at Osborne , I s l e of Wight, will be completed, so that dispatches can be sent off by Ministers to the Queen at all times, night or day. A FAMILY OF COINERS.—A few days ago information was communicated to the authorities at the Mint that there was a manufactory of counterfeit coin in an ex tensive way of business at No. 32, Clerkenwell-green. Information Was forwarded to Inspector Brennan, an active and intelligent officer of the G division, frequently engaged in the apprehension of coiners, and he was directed to take the persons into custody. He made the necessary arrangements. and upon instituting in quiries, ascertained that a man named Joseph Munns, with his wife, son, and daughter, occupied a room on the third floor, where they were carrying on, in a whole sale way, the manufacture of base coin. He obtained the assistance of Sergeant Maskell, and Evans and Nevelle, constables of the G division, who succeeded in capturing the whole of the family, with the materials and apparatus they were using. The officers proceeded to the room the day before Christmas-day. They found the door fastened. This was soon demolished, and an entrance obtained. Upon getting into the room Munns, who had a mould in his hand, immediately tried to destroy it. The mother and her children also began to destroy other moulds, but they were promptly seized. A struggle ensued, in the course of which the officers had their clothes torn. There was a large fire in the room, on which was a crucible, with the materials for the manufacture of base coin. There was also a galvanic battery ready for immediate operation, with some moulds for ,the manufacture of counterfeit shillings and six pences, of which there is no doubt a large quantity have been issued from this manufactory. The family are now safely lodged in the House of Detention. CITY RAILWAY TERMINUS. A meeting of the company was held yesterday, at the London Tavern, to receive the report of the directors as to the state of the share list, and the proceedings and prospects of the company. Mr. Sheriff Croll occupied the chair. The following report was read : " The directors of the City Terminus Company have convened this meeting frankly to explain to their share holders the circumstances that have unexpectedly arisen to prevent the company complying with the standing orders of Parliament in time to obtain their bill during the pre- sent session. " The directors would not have called their shareholders together at this most inconvenient season, but they feel their conduct would have been open to censure if, knowing the position in which they are placed, they had concealed it from their constituents until it would be too late for them to apply a remedy, if they should be so disposed. " Although the merits of Mr. Pearson's plan had bean under the consideration of the public and of scientific men for nearly two years, a company intending to carry it into execution was not formed until the 9th day of December instant. It will be remembered that the large public meeting assembled at the London Tavern, on the Ist of November (with a careful regard to prudential considera tions rarely observed' in the formation of companies), ap pointed a committee to investigate and report upon the estimates and calculations upon which Mr. Pearson based his claims for its support as a commercial undertaking. " The committee were necessarily engaged until the 9th day of December in discharging the duties imposed upon them, and it was not until the 18th day of December, after they had received Mr. Tite's report, that they were enabled, at the adjourned publio meeting, to recommend the forma tion of a company in conformity with the principles agreed upon at the first public meeting. " The committee selected from amongst such body the present directors, who accepted the trust, not coveting the honours of a public station, or seeking, as capitalists, the profits of a large investment, but as men of business anxi ous to assist in effecting a great undertaking, in favour of which public opinion had been so strongly pronounced, and which, after mature deliberation, they were and are convinced will be beneficial to the community, and profit able to those who embark their money in its exec ution.
