They choose the vicinity in the belief that near to the modern trees those which yielded what is now considered fossil gum must have grown.

A deputation from the committee entrusted with the carrying out of the arrangements of the proposed trade reform demonstration waited on the Home Secretary yesterday afternoon, on the subject of appointing special constables for that occasion. The deputation consisted of Messrs. G. Potter, H. Hart-- well, J.Coffey, Jenkins, and Bryan. Sir R. Mayne was present at the interview. ; Mr. G. POTTER explained that a few weeks ago the committee asked Sir R. Mayne if he would faci litate them in the progress of the demonstration, and in the keeping away of roughs and such like characters, who infested gatherings in every large town. Wishing the demonstration to be a peaceable one, they asked him for the assistance of the police to protect them from the characters to whom he had referred, who would not form part of the procession, but Sir R. Mayne refused to interfere in the matter. They had therefore come to him (Mr. Walpole) to ask whether he would allow the swearing in, or ar range for the swearingin, of 1,000 of the artisans of London, who were willing to come forward and act in that capacity on the day of the proposed demon stration. They did not apprehend that anything would occur calling for their interference during the day, but it was possible that some disturbance might take place in returning from the demonstration in the evening. The committee did not yet know where the demonstration would be held. They had had an offer from the Government of a place which they did not approve, and which he hoped they would not be obliged to have recourse to ; but he trusted they would be able to secure a place of meeting before the appointed day. Mr. JENKINS said the committee were assured the working men would behave in an orderly manner. Mr. HARTWELL remarked that the police had given every assistance to those who had the management of the reform demonstrations in the provinces. Sir R. MAYNE said the request that was made to him was that he should keep one side of the street clear for the procession. That, he told them, ha could not do, but added that he would do every thing in his power to preserve the peace of the me- tropolis. Mr. WALPOLE called the attention of the deputa tion to the Act of Parliament on the subject, which provided for the appointment of special constables, on information being made to any two justices of the peace, on the oath of one credible witness, that any tumult, riot, or felony ha 1 taken place or might reasonably be apprehended, such justices being of opinion that the ordinary oflic.trs appointed for the preservation of the peace were not sufficient for that purpose. It was not therefore in his power either to withhold or grant the appointment of special con stables. He did not suppose they wished him to assume that they were under an apprehension that tumult, riot, or felony would take place. Mr. POTTER pointed out the sort of protection that was wanted. While the demonstrations were being held in the summer, bands of men, not con nected with reformers, formed themselves into bodies, broke windows, and committed other acts which were imputed to those who had taken part in the processions. They apprehended that something of that kind would again occur, and they wished to swear in special constables, so that they might put an end to it and free themselves from the stigma of disorderly proceedings, but they did not want to go before a magistrate and swear that a riot or a tumult would take place. Mr. WALPOLE did not see, from the information laid before him, that either Mr. Potter or any one riot, tumult, or felony. (h ear, hear, f _rokintthe need depu tation.) If that was so, he did not thin omen y t.

The letter written by Dr. Livingstone to the Earl of Clarendon, and read at the meeting of the Geo graphical Society on Monday evening, is as fol lows : " Ugomano, May 18. _ . " My Lord,—When we could not discover a path for camels through the mangrove swamps at the mouth of the Rovuma, we proceeded about 25 miles to the north of the river, and at the bottom of Mikindamy Bay entered a beautiful land-locked harbour, called Kinday-on-Pemba. The entrance 'seems not more than 300 yards wide, and of these about 150 are deep, the reef on each side of the channel showing so plainly of a light colour that no ship ought to touch. The harbour is somewhat of the shape of the spade' on cards, the entrance being like the short handle. There is a mile nearly of space for anchorage, the southern part being from 10 to 14 fathoms, while the north-western portion is shallow and rocky. It is a first-rate harbour for Arab dhows, the land rising nearly all around from 200 to 300 ft. The water is so calm that they can draw their craft to the shore to dis charge and take in cargo. They are also completely screened by the masses of trees growing all round it from seaward observation. The population con sists of coast Arabs and their slaves. The six vil lages in which they live are dotted all round the shore, and may contain 300 souls in all. They seemed to be suspicious, and but for our having been accompanied by her Majesty's steam-ship Pen guin would have given trouble. The ordinary pre caution of placing a sentry over our exposed goods caused a panic, and the sirkar, or head man, thought that he gave a crushing reply to my explanations when he bluttered out 'But we have no thieves here I' Our route hence was S.S.W. to the .Rovuma, which we struck at the spot marked on the chart as that at which Pioneer turned in 1861. We travelled over the same plateau that is seen to flank both sides of the Rovuma, like a chain of hills, from 400 ft. to 600 ft. high. Except where the natives, who are called Nakoade, reside, the whole country within the influence of the mois ture from the ocean is covered with dense jungle. The trees in general are not large, and planted so closely together as generally to exclude the sun. In many places they may be said to be woven together by tangled masses of climbing plants, more resem bling the ropes and cables of a ship in inextricable confusion than the graceful creepers with which we are familiar in norther climates. They gave impres sion of being remnants of the carboniferous period referred to by geologists, and the huge pachyder mate of that time were the only beings that could wriggle through them. Trado paths have already been made, but we had both to heighten and widen them for camels and buffaloes. The people at the sea coast had declared that no aid could be got from the natives. When we were 7 miles off we were d skill. with their Tw tomahawks days'co n agreeably surprised to find that for reasonable wages o we could employ any number of carriers and s as much as they could wood cutters we desired.

Little can be said about the appearance of the country. By the occasional glimpses we got it seemed covered with great masses of dark green foliage, except where the bamboo gave a ligher tint or a sterculia had changed its leaves to yellow in anticipation of winter. The path we fol lowed sometimes went along or across a wady,' in which we were smothered by the grass overhead. Such rocks as we could see were undisturbed grey sandstone, capped by ferruginous blocks of silici fied this we often stumbled against bloc wood that any one would willing to be unwilling tone s. This is a be lieve at sight that they were not s underneath, and sure indication here of coal being g ands of the river. pieces of it were met in the conglomerate.

This is the point of confluence, as the name Tugsmano or Ugomano implies, of the Louma and Loendi. The Leondi is decidedly the parent stream, and comes from the south-west, where, in addition to some bold granite peaks, the dim outline of dis tant high land appears.

The adjourned meeting of the Trades' Demon stration Committee was held last evening at the Brougham Hall, Fleet-street--Mr. G. Potter in the chair—to receive a report from the sub-committee appointed to secure a suitable place for the meeting on the 3d of December next. • The CHAIRMAN reported that himself and Mr. Jenkins had waited upon Lord Ranclagh with respect to the Beaufort House Rifle Ground, Old Brampton. They were met in the most frank and gentlemanly manner, and having stated the object of their visit, after due consideration his lordship granted their re quest, handed to the deputation a letter in - which he stated his political views, carefully guarding himself from acquiescing in the objects or principles of the Reform Association. The letter concluded as fol lows : for y, granted that you will indemnify me f ' ( C ir o n n ie se r rv in at e i e v t e in ' a of my park fencing, nly a i i t p en os tl sible damage by riot or otherwise. lam unsightly ' wall-poles' which now surround the place of a in anything but pleasing memorial. — and prefer it to the all'a l 'lliln t rss w ttaola a ll s then re - solved that the meeti " n r g 'ls b Li e rel u d " in the grounds given by Lord Ranelagh, and that the secretary write a respectful letter to Lord John Manners thanking his lordship for the offer of Primrose-hill, but informing him that the committee had secured private grounds in which to hold the meeting. The committee then adjourned with three cheers for Lord Ranelagh, and thanks to Lord John Man ners and Mr. Walpole for their c ourteous treatment of the deputations who had w aited upon them. A..

N. RAPIDITY OF FIRE. Capable of firing at least 12 rounds per minute, without aiming, the cartridges being arranged on a table. o. ACCURACY WHEN FIRED FROM A FIXED REST. The arm must give a mean figure of merit of not more than 36in. at 1,000 yards, 30in. at 800 yards, 12in. at 500, and 6in. at 300. The mean to be taken upon at least five targets of twenty shots each. P. TRAJECTORY. Not to require at 500 yards an elevation of more than 1 deg. 30 min. Q. FOULING. The shooting not to deteriorate more than 20 per cent. at 1,000 yards after firing 250 rounds. R. PENETRATION. The mean penetration of five shots not to. be loss than that of the present service muzzle-loading Enfield Rifle — viz., 12 half-inch elm planks, which have been soaked 48 hours in water. Distance 30 yards. s. LUBRICATION. Wax on bullets is indispensable, but any other lubricant may be superadded or applied to the cartridge, if thought necessary by the competitor. 111. No arms will be received without the usual proof marks. Specifications, and drawings of the methods proposed, stating the probable cost per arm, and accompanied by a finished specimen arm, with 20 rounds of suitable ammu nition, should be sent to the "Di rec t or o f O r d nance, W a r Office, Pall-mall," on or before the 30th March, 1867. The specifications and specimen arms will be considered by the Ordnance Select Committee and its associate mem bers, who will be selected by the Secretary of State for War, and who will, after firing the 20 preliminary rounds, select and recommend for further trial such of the systems a s may appear to them sufficiently promising, rejecting all such as may not be considered to offer sufficient merits to warrant their being included in the competition, the con ditions of which are stated in this advertisement. Each accepted competitor will then be required to furnish for experiment, at Woolwich, six arms in strict conformity to the specimen arm submitted, with 1,000 rounds of am munition per arm, within four months after date of de mand. Each competitor will be required to disclose to the committee the exact nature of the lubrication he may em ploy. A sum of £3OO will be paid to each of the accepted competitors, to cover the expense of the six rifles, and of the supply of ammunition required. The Secretary of State offers a reward of £l.OOO for the arm which, on combination of all qualities, is considered by the committee to be the best submitted. A second reward of £6OO for the ann. which, while at taining a satisfactory degree of excellence in other particu lars, is selected for merit in respect to its breech mechanism. A third reward of £4OO for the best cartridge. The qua lities which will be principally taken into consideration in awarding this prize will bo econ om y of manufacture, power of The shooting qualities of the cartridge must be fair; but as they may depend upon the r iflin g of th e arm with which var s i u o s u ta s i c n l i i n n g iat r :a u , g a ll and general serviceability. usage, from dete r i ora ti on i n the cartridge is associated, they will not be so much con sidered as those above-mentioned. It is clearly to be understood that under no circumstances will a competitor be entitled to more than one prize ; but such prize will be irrespective of any reward which may be given to the inventor of the arm finally adopted into the service. 1V MAGAZINE AND REPEATING ARMS. Magazine and Repeating Arius for Infantry will bo re ceived and examined in a manner similar to the Breech loading Rifles. They must not be less in length than 48 inches, including the stock. The limit of weight for these arms is fixed at Vb. ex clusive of the charges in the magazine. It is indispensable that the arms bo made to take a bayonet. Tho Secretary of State offers a reward of 300 for the best Magazine or Repeating Arm produced that fulfils the above conditions ; and in the absence of experience does not at present define the standard of accuracy or other conditions to be fulfilled before such an arm can be adopted. Those Magazine orßepeating Arms, which are accepted for further trial, will be paid for at the rate of £6O each. This sum is to include 1,000 rounds of ammunition per arm. • The Secretary of State will take care that no ingenious novelty produced in answer to this advertisement shall be adopted into the service without proper acknowledgment, and that the name of the individual with whom it origi nates shall be recorded in connection with it: if the rifle to which the first prize is awarded is adopted into the service , it will bear the inventor's name.
