ALLSOPP'S PALE ALE AND DR. G LOVE R. The circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the expiession of Dr. Glover's opinion in favour of Ale, compels lr es=rs. A LLSOPP and SONS to connect this remarkable dis tribution of a calumny with other ins!dious attacks upon their flrni which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy and unneighbourly jealously. Messrs. ILL5Orr and SONS, in reply, deem it their best c ourse to adopt th e same li n e of conduct as in the case of the traitor perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so 11 :. li gnantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. The y pub lish, therefore, without abridgement, the letter they received fro m "r• Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a letter the more valuable because it was not intended for publication, and is an unpre meditated evldence of that learned Chemist's just appreciation of Pale Ale. ---- DR. GLOVER TO MR. ALLSOPP. " Newcastle-on-Tyne, April 11. ` "Si r — lt,,,_ was not my intention, in writing the hast y note to ~.ne Lancet,' to cast any yetlections upon, or to implica te in an y navp respectable brewers of pale ale. " .., nei When I first saw the statement about the alleged use o f strych nine n bittering ale, I looked upon the assertion as incr edible, both account, of the price of the drug and the symptom s it would create ; but on experiment, I found that strychnine possesses such Wonderful bitterness, ilia it might perhaps be used as AN ADJUVANT ,_at !east by UNPRINCIPLID ranSONS. In short, my object was :simply e ,_eahow that the thing was not altogether so _impossib le as it ap peared at first si g ht t o be.

AVERY PARTIAL STATEMENT of the. real f tct it would he, were we to mention as many new styles of dress as would fill an ordinary advertisement, MI majority would then be omitted. E. MoSES and SON'S new inventions for the Autumnal Season are 10,-yond description. and their universal appli cation to every kind of dress renders them successive series of no velties, to particularize which is impossible; but it is the plainest statement they can make, and the most likely to be fully proved— that their dress for Youths and Children is wholly reconstructed by artist's they employ exclusively in that line. Their Overcoat De partment presents an array of new styles, securing comfort, gentility and economy. Dress Suits in magnificent materials all new, and cut a d finished in the highest style. Sporting Dress has received a complete reformation in Cut, Make, and Materials. The Cut se cures comfort, the Make exhibits the most accomplished workman ship, and the Materials are novel, waterproof, and elegant, at prices much below any other Establishment. PAROCHIAL AND UNITED EMIGRATION. These arrangements are likely to prove beneficial in many re spects ; should they fail in any, it will be expenses incurred by pur chasing unsuitable outfits, It is pot at all probable that Gentlemen of business habits will recklessly expend the reseurces of Parochial or other Institutions on improper and high charged Outfits; but they cannot he expected to possess a thorough acquaintance with the Goods which should be comprised in suitable Outfits. To such, E. MOSES and SON respectfully offer the advantages of their longer practical experience it this branch or trade. and will at any time be happy to exhibit their unequalled Outfits, and gratuitously supply all needful information to Societies, or to private individuals. The ad vantages E. MOSES and SON can confer in Outfitting are of the most important character—extent of Stock in every kind of Goods, the most suitable articles, and the best quality.

Sparks from rockets have often been known to cause serious tires, and such a calamity occurring near the magazines, if not on the works themselves, would be likely to lead to the most d readful alarm, if not somethin more. The Board of Ordnan ce have cautioned pilots and mariners not to fire after entering Long Reach, and be tween Crayfordness and Coa l Harbour Point. Parties offending after this notice will be pr oceeded a g ainst as guilty of a misdemeanour. The quantity of powder stored at Pur fleet is immense.

THE COUN TRY MARKET NEVCBURY, 14.—T0-day is Michaelmas hiring fair, which has much interrupted the trade in corn. Our supply of wheat is large, the finest lots of which are picked off at rather higher rate'', whilst other descrip tions are a slow sale at late rates, and some quantity remaining unsold. Barley in moderate supply; fine malting is per quarter higher, and other descriptions Fully as dear, with a good demand. Beans and oats, short supply, and commanded full rates. LIVERPOOL. OCT. 15.—Supplies of foreign grain and flour comes forward slowly, and the deliveries of our own farmers being curtailed through their being busily engaged with wheat sowing, prices of wheat and flour have this week shown a tendency to advance, with a good consumptive , . demand. Soma large transactions took place in wheat and filter the last two days, end the de mand was again repeated at this morning's market, forming altogether an extensive business since Tuesday, at an advance of 2d per bushel on wheat, and 9d to Is per barrel end sack on flour. The purchases were mostly 'for Ireland and So Aland, cur neighbouring mil lers and dealers buying only. sparingly. Very little Indian corn, on the spot, and it was rather dearer.

The following correspondence will be read with laterest- c :. - '" - "Liverpool, Oct. 6, 1832. " Dear Sir,—As I find great interest taken in Liver pool in the ( ffickncy of life boats, I enclose a copy of our latter to the secretary of Lloyd's, containing some in'or mation respc-cting the Lytham life-boat. " I. is much to be fear©i that the benevolent intentions of the National Shipwreck Institutions will be frustrated if they place • Beching's prize model boats' at all their stations, ( specially on this coast; they are totally un suitf d to this locality, and such boats will not inspire confidence amongst the boatmen; in fact, they are more calculated to sacrifice lives than save lives, and the society, instead of being instrumental in preserving the lives of shipwrecked msrincre, are now more likely to become marine undertakers to the boatmen along the coast. " The Dock Committee deserve great credit for de clining to substitute these prize models for their own efficient boars, built by Costain, of Liverpool. " I am, dear Sir, HENRY yours tru C.ly, CHAPMAN. " To Thomas Court, Esq., Secretary Under writers' Association." (Copy.) " Liverpool, Oct. 5, 1852. Sir,—So far we have escaped damage in our imme diate district. It blew hard yesterday, with heavy rain all day, wind S.E.; it is now blowing bird from N.W. with rain. " The capsizing of the Lytham life.beat, resulting in such a serious end melancholy loss of life, was an event fully expected. Some three weeks ago the trustees of the Southport lifeboat had the crew mustered for exercise, and we pro- ceeded to Lydian, there to examine this patent life boat, as the mater of the Southport life-boat (an old man- ot- war's man, named Itzwelitle) pronounced her to be unsafe in the sea and tideways of this coast. On lauding we farad a very superior boat-hots:le, built at' tht! , expose of the lord of the manor, Air. Talbot Clifton, of Lytham Hall. Inside everything w e as in keeping, no expense having been spared. L liduck, the superintendent of our Sou th p ort boat, co• ieutnant incided with us in pronouncing the patent life-boat dan gerous, aad inklicient if rt quired to take a numerous crew from a wrek. " Such a boat might be well enough in the bands of the smart, eltil;ul boatmen of Kent, Yarmouth, and the east coast pilots, and fishermen accustom td to coblrs, but in charge of ' half-and-half boatmen such boats are most dangercus—they have too much top hamper, and must he crank. " The Lt them men laid great stress on the boat right ir g herself quickly if she capsized: this riled old Raw chile; ho could not contain himself any longer, and, clearing his iniaith of his quid, he exclaimed in goad broad Lancashire, Capsizing and righting be —; we wants a boat' as won't capsize! If so he our'n capsizes, it's good bye to all hands; and I tells you, that there boat will drown you all the first time you go out with any sea on—she will for sure.' " These prophetic words of this practical seaman and pilot have, as the result proves, been too soon verified. We shall not be surprised at more accidents of this kind happening, if a particular model is fixed upon, and su p. poeed to be adepted to every sea coast. Trials, unfortunately, are not made in gales of wind and in heavy seas. A calm river or deck basin is generally chosen for the experiment, just as we read of steamers being tried in Long R eac h by the measured mile. On these occasions it ap pears to us that the only machinery that is practically tried is that of the stomachs of the invited guests, and the quality of the champagne. A good dusting to Heligolaud and back in a sharp . gale would enable prac tical men to pronounce some opinion of the capabilities of the vessel, but atter a pleasant airing down the Thames, and a splendid banquet, what can people do otherwise‘than observe Baillie Nicol Jarvie'a maxim, not to accept a man's hospitality, and abuse the scoun drel behind his back?' " We wish the excellent society that is establishing life-boats around the coast would institute an inquiry and examine the Southport life-boat, in which the crew haveembounded confidence. " We remain, Sir, your obedient servants, "HENRY C. CHAPMAN AND Co. Agents for Lloyd's. ain G. A. Halsted, Secretary, Lloyd's." [ADVERTISEMENT.] —A.

LAUNCH OF A PRUSSIAN STEAM-PACKET.--A very handsome steam-vessel, built for the Prussian Post-office se rvice, was launched from the building-yard of Messrs. C. J.

She is 570 tone, 164 feet 8 inches in length, 25 feet 6 inches in breadth, and 16 feet in depth, and is t o b e propelled by paddle-wheel o scillating-engines, by Penn and Co., of 120 horse-power.

A meeting of the shareholders was hid on Thursday at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-stect ; Mr. Hope in the chair. The CHAIRMAN said the object of tie meeting was to lay before the shareholders a statement of the pro ceedings that had been taken in their Iffaire, and also a statement of the financial position o the company. He had no doubt that every gentlenan had made himself acquainted with the report, it which the di rectors had given, he trusted, a ties' idea of what had been done, and the circumstances that had pre vented the success of their undertakhg in the last session of Parliament. It was necesssryto be guarded in their statements, and consequently they bad not been able to express in the report as strongly as they should have wished their sense of the lardehip of the position in which they were placed. The company was first established in 1850; but the Government then had a Bill of their own, proposing to buy up all the existing water companies; and through an apprehension that the Government meaure would be hampered if any new company were alowed to ob tain the legislative sanction, the Bill letroduced by their company was thrown out on the seond reading. The same" causes operated against them 'n 1851; but, it appearing in 1852 that the moment hal arrived for pressing forward the scheme, owing to the demand for sanitary improvement, their Bill was again brought forward. The Chairman then referred to the proceedings in the last session, and to other matters which are fully set forth in the follcwing report, which was read by the secretary : " The provisional directors.of the London (Watford) Spring Water Company for the session 1852, have to lay before their shareholders and the public the" follow ing report of their proceedings. On.Tlatiistday, the 25th of March last, a motion for the second reading of the Bill was made in the House of Commons, and was car ried by a majority of three to one: 196 members voting in favour of the Bill, and 65 against it. The Committee of the House of Commons appointed daring the last ses sion to investigate the Bills relating to the supply of water to the metropolis, did not commence their labours until the 2d of April. The Government Bill, called 'Metropolis Water Supply,' with your Bill and all other Bills relating to the supply of water to the metro polis, both north and south of the Thames (ten in num ber), were referred to the same Committee. The West Middlesex Water Company were, during the progress of the inquiry, permitted to bring in a Bill to enable them to comply with the provision of the Government Bill by changing their point of supply to the Thames above Teddington Lock. For this purpose they were allowed to dispense with compliance with the Standing Orders and other preliminary forms; they were also indulged with the privilege of taking • precedence in Committee of the Bill of the London (Watford) Spring Water Company, though the latter had necessarily been brought in at an earlier period. Thus it happened that the investigation of the merits of your Bill before the committee did not com mence until Tuesday, the 15th of June. In consequence of this delay and the early close of the session after the case had been brought before the Committee, there-was not sufficient time to admit of the investigation being completed. This is the more to be regretted when it is remembered that the Bill seas first introduced into Par liament in the year 1850, and was then rejected on the second reeding, not oe its merits, but from an apprehen sion en the part of the Government of the day that the passing of a new water Bill might interfere with a ge neral bill then in contemplation by them, but since abandoned. From this and other obstacles the company have never before been able even to obtain a hearing in Parliament, although uniformly and warmly sup-ported by the inhabitants; of the metropolis in general, and es pecially by those of the districts embraced in the Bill. In an able opening speech before the Committee, your counsel, Mr. Hope, made a clear and intelligible statement of the nature of the project and proposed operations of the com pany. Thirty-eight witnesses in favour of the bill were subsequently examined, and other valuable evidence wa s a t co mmand, which, from the limit as to time, could not be heard. The committee could, therefore, come to no decision, and were only able to report the evidence as far as it was taken to the House of Commons. The whole of this evidence has been published in a blue-book for the use of the public. Your directors would refer to it, confident that an attentive examination will show that the statements put forth in the opening speech of your counsel, a copy of which is attached to this report, and in the prospectus and reports of the company, have been fully sustained. A searching investigation into the quality of the Thames water, even when taken above Teddington Lode, and after filtration, has proved that the amount of dead and decaying animal and vegetable matter contained in it era such as to render it unwhole some; nineteen different species of living animals end also fungi have been shown by Dr. Lancaster, F.R.S , and Dr. Redfern, to abound in such vs - es Your directors beneVe thAt the teeidetce treeseetg Amor; Ike s monstrates that the source of the wan ,posed to be re sorted to by the company, is fully adeqn . sin quantity; and pre-eminent from its excellent quality. The number of shares taken in the company on which the deposit has ber n paid, amount to 12,387. Your directors annex the fi nancial statement, and will be enabled to return to the shareholders the surplus subscribed beyond lls. 6:1. per share. This return will be made as soon Q`.3 it iepos sible to withdraw from the Accountant-General the de posit lodged with him according to the requirements of the standing orders of Parliament, which will be early in November. The expenses would have been much greater if various scientific and other persons had not tendered a large amount of voluntary support. It is an ticipated that the expenditure of labour and money al ready incurred will have the effect hereafter of 'mate rially facilitating the progress of the Bill through Par liament. Und er t h e ex i s ting law, it is impossible to carry the company forward without eommencine the preliminary Parliamentary proceedings de novo; but the shareholders can do this if they see fit, and renew their application for an Act in the ensuing session. Your di rectors, in conclusion, have to state, that their opinion is unchanged as to the advantages likely to result from the establishment of this company, and the carrying out of the undertaking, which they believe would materially conduce to the comfort, and to maintain the health of the inhabitants of London." The SECRETARY also read the statement of accounts annexed to the report, from which it appeared that there is a balance to the credit of the shareholders of 9,9091. 125., which is equal to a return of 16s. per share on the 12,387 shares on which 275. 6d. per share had been deposited. Oa the motion of Mr. ADAM, seconded by Mr. HOLMES, the report and statement of accounts were adopted. Oa the motion of Mr. Homexs, seconded by Mr. LAURIE, a vote of thanks was passed to the directors for the able manner in which they discharged the duties devolving uphn them. A resolution was also p as sed by which the company was declared t o b e dis s olved, for the purpose of re constituting it, and renewing the application for, a Bill to Parliament in the ensuing session. Mr. BARRY'--IS it not optional with the shareholders to be subscribers to a like extent, or to a greater or less extent, in the now company ? CHAIRMAN—There is no compulsion whatever on any shareholder to continue in the undertaking un less he likes it. His deposit will be returned to him, and be may subscribe to the new company either more or less than the deposit as he likes.—(Hear, hear.) A resolution was then passed by which the com pany was established de novo. Mr. Hope left the chair, which was taken by Sir Robert Price, M.P. Oa the motion of Mr. BARRY, seconded by Mr. WESTHORPE, it was agreed that the new company should be duly registered, under the title of the London (Watford) Spring Water Company, and that the directors of the late company be requested to act as directors, with power to add to their number such gentlemen as they should Fee fit, and to take such steps as they should think requisite to promote the interests of the company, and to procure the Act of incorporation in the ensuing session of Parliament. The CHAIRMAN expressed his determination to proceed with the undertaking, and his surprise at the apathy which hitherto had been displayed on the subject by the public, but he trusted that their eyes were at length opened to the benefits which this undertaking would confer on them, and that they would now come forward to support it. lie would remind them that on the division last session on the second reading of their Bill in the House of Com mons they had a majority of 196 to 65, which showed that the House of Commons was favourable to them, and approved of the principle of their Bill. He had no doubt they would carry their Bill through Parlia ment, and that they would be the first company to bring from an inexhaustible source a pure supply of water. Mr. HOPE thought it was probable he might go abroad, and therefore would not be able to give as much attention to the interests of the company as he had hitherto done. He therefore could not promise to take a leading part in the direction of the affairs of the company, but he would continue a shareholder, and endeavour to aid them in accomplishing this great undertaking. Mr. JOHNSTONE and other gentlemen expressed their desire that Mr. Hope should continue to take his usual active part in their proceedings. Mr. HOMERSHAM, the engineer of the company, congratulated the meeting on the favourable position now occupied by the company, and which was dif ferent from that held by it in 1849 and 1850. On a long investigation before a Committee of the House of Commons it was proved that no towns were so well supplied with water as those which were supplied by private companies and by public competition. He calculated that the shareholders in this undertaking would realize a profit of ten per cent., and that they would be able to give to the public a good supply of pure water at small charges. A vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meeting separated. The following officers passed in navigation at the Royal Naval College on the 14th inst. , For Lieutenants—Messrs. J. H. M. Calcraft, W. F. Lee, J. A. Poland, the Hon. AV. V. L. H.. Anson, E. T. Parsons, A. J. Junes (first en the list), A. W. Gillett, H. Savers, F. W. Bennett, J. L. Perry, and W. R. Hobson. For Masters—Messrs. G. P. Burney, T. Oyler, R. E. Jones, F. Taylor, A. F. Boxer, E. IL Hills, and W. F. Lews. The following young gentlemen qualified for entry into her Majesty's navy on the same day : As Master's-Assistants—Messrs. W. Taylor and H. J. P3rr. As Naval Cadets —Messrs. E. G. Maddock, A. S. Montagu, H. J. Dyke, A. T. Collier, H. St. L. Pal liser, H. J. Carr, and C. J. Geneste. The six first named of this class has joined her Majesty's ship Victory, until draughted to seagoing ships, and the last named has joined her Majesty's ship Leander. SHEERNESS, TIIUASDAY.—Her Majesty's screw line•of-battle ship Agamemnon, 90, Captain Sir T. Maitland, was taken into the fitting basin on Tues. day, and placed underneath the shears. Her main and mizenmasts were put in the same day, her fore• mast and bowsprit yesterday. At high water she was warped into No. 3 dock, to have her copper examined, which received some injury on her removal from the basin at Woolwich. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steam-vessel Tartarus, Mr. Richard H. Risk, lieutenant-commanding, is daily expecting to be ordered to Woolwich, to have her machinery, &c., repaired. This being effected, and the defects - in her hull made good, she will re turn to the coast of Scotland, as a protection to the fisheries. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel stea4n•vessel Biwa couta, 6, Mr. S. W. K. Freeman, master in charge, having completed her fitting and coaled, will be re moved this day from the fitting basin, and moored off the west shore of the harbour, as an addition to the advanced steam squadron of reserve. Her Majesty's paddle-wheel steam-vessel Wildfire, Mr. Brockman, second-master commanding, will em bark today for Woolwich, Captain the Hon. Mon tagu Stopford and others of the committeee of naval officers appointed to report on the relative strength of the " trial anchors," the breaking of which will com mence to-morrow (Friday), at nine o'clock; Her Majesty's ship London, 90, Captain G.' R,. Mundy, is to be removed to-day from her present moorings, near the mouth of the harbour, to those opposite the Town-pier. The Active cutter proceeded on the 12th instant to Chatham with invalids, for treatment at Melville Hospital, returning the same evening. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. f; in h c a e v n e t a K l re i a n i g y ( anticipated uld th b a C et re eaapptain George St. pointedto APPOINTMENTS. the command of the Leander, 50, at Portsmouth. Under his resumption of office the ship will be speedily fitted for further service at sea. Lieutenant W. G. Jones, to the coast guard. Chaplain—Rev. Charles W. Belgrave, re-appointed to the Leander, 50, Portsmouth. Naval Instructor—M. P. Sambell, re-appointed to the Leander. Mates—A. J. Innes, to the Leander ; Henry Davis, to the Electra, 12, Portsmouth. Naval Cadets—Edward Maddock, to the Arrogant, 46, screw-frigate, Portsmouth ; H. H. L. Palliser, to the Termagant, 24, screw-frigate, Portsmouth. THE ASSISTANT-SURGEONS AND THE LEANDER.— It will be scarcely credited that up to the paying off of that roomy frigate the Leander, the assistant-sur geons were without cabins. It is known that Captain Sydney nacres, when be commanded the Leander for upwards of two years, was constantly opposed to any concession being made in favour of the junior medical officers. We understand that the liberality of Captain King has been very different to that of his prede cessor, and we have reason to believe that the Leander will not proceed again to sea without being fitted with cabins for all the medical staff entitled. by the Admiralty regulations to such comforts. — Herald. THE DOVER PACKETS.—No less than three out of the six of the steam-packets' appropriated for the Admiralty mail service at Dover are at present at Woolwich in the hands of the dockyard shipwrights and engineers. The Garland arrived on the 16th of September, and will not be out of the hands of the en gineers before the Ist of December next. Princess Alice arrived on the 10th, and will be completed by the 23d inst. Vivid, Master Commander Smithett, arrived on the 13th, and is to be surveyed and reported. D. Slight, late surgeon of the Indefatigable, whose death we have already announced, departed this life on the 29th of September, from the effects of fever. Linnet, 6, Commander Henry Need, fitting at De vonport, for the coast of Africa, is already well manned. She has a popular captain and good officers, and will doubtless be a happy as well as an efficient cruiser. THE ARMAMENT OF THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. —We are enabled to state that the number of guns with which the new screw three• decker the Duke of Wellington, now fitting at Portsmouth, is to be armed is 131. They will consist chiefly of 56 cwt. 32. pounders, and 60 cwt. 68-pounders, with a pivot gun of the heaviest calibre. Her broadside weight of metal will be above 4,0001b5. This gigantic ship will be put "in commission of the peace" most likely be fore Christmas. THE SCREW Two DECKER SANSPAREIL.—This ship, commanded by Captain nacres, fitting at Da , venport, is no w fully manned; but she will not be ready for sea by the Ist of next month if greater exertions are not made by the' contractors for her machinery. THE 50-GUN SCREW -FRIGATE IMPERIEUSE.— This ship, launched last month at Deptford, and now fitting at Woolwich, will be completed by the end of this month, and will shortly be commissioned. The committee on manning the navy have resumed their sittings at Whitehall. The revising committees for arming the merchant steamers and inquiring into screw experience have been broken up, and the master shipwrights have re turned to their respective dockyards. THE CHANNEL SQUADRON. —The Commander-in- Chief, Rear-Admiral Corry, in his flag-ship Prince Regent, 92, Captain Hutton, w ith the Rodney, 92, Captain Graham, C. 8., and Indefatigable, 50, Cap tain Smart, are still at Queenstown, but are expected at Devonport. The Prince Regent's maintopmast has been condemned. Ajax, 58, screw guard-ship, Captain Quin, will not be ready to leave Portsmouth for Queenstown before the sth November. She will be out of the bands of the dockyard on the 21st inst. Collingwood, 80, at Portsmouth, is to be taken out of dock this day. Drake, lighter, sailed to-day for Plymouth, to bring back Rear -Admiral Fanshawe'a.furniture. "ROThi e lipplititices T tenaer,-Lieliteitint•Gommander, Fenwick, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday, from Spithead. • Termagant, 24, screw-frigate, Captain Gifford, is now reported ready for sea at Portsmouth, this day. Tartarus, steam•vessel, Lieutenant Commander Risk, has returned from protecting the Scotch fisheries, and is having her defects made good at Chatham. MALTA, OCT. 9.—The order for the troops to change quarters has been finally issued, and early in the week the removals will be effected. The 76th, stationed since their arrival in the island in the Coto nera district, will be relieved by the 68th from Lower St. Elmo, the Buffs removing from Florian to their quarters, and the 76th going to Florian. The Malta Fepcibles will do duty in the Forts Ricasoli and Tigne, occupying Fort Manoel as their head quarters. The Sultan, from Eogland, only arrived this after noon. The Fury, from the fleet, arrived yesterday, the Bth. The fleet left Vourla Bay on the 29th ult., in company with the Turkish division, bound to the Isle of Samos, to collect tribute. Admiral Dundas ar• rived in the Bay of Salamis on the evening of the 31 instant, the steamers being employed in towing. The Vengeance and Phaeton sailed and arrived at nearly the same moment. The rivalry existing between the crews of these vessels is said to be very great, and, the Vengeance having gained some real or imaginary advantage over the Phaeton on one occasion, the fact was celebrated by a drawing, in which a cock was represented as crowing on the mainmast-top. The Admiral is so vexed at the circumstance that it is said the Vengeance will be ordered to winter at Gibraltar. A court of inquiry as to the Fury running into the Austrian ship Padre Mimbelli, as before reported, has terminated its proceedings, and on the morning of the 4th Lieutenant Martin, the officer of the watch at the time of the accident, was suspended from duty, which leads to the belief that he will be subjected to a court-martial for the offence. The Fury has broken a piston, and is in want of extensive repairs. The Samson steam-frigate fell in with the fleet on the Ist inst. She was a most acceptable addition, having letters, &c., for the officers. The kindliest feelings have been manifested by the officers of the Turkish and English fleets to each other. On the 21st ult. Admiral Ahmet Pasha gave to Admiral Dundas and his officers, and the captains of the fleet, a magnificent dinner on board the Nizamie, the decks of which were festooned with the English and Turkish flags interlaced. After dinner, the first toast was " The Sultan," afterwards " The Queen," and both were honoured by a salute o f 21 guns. Nothing could have gone off better. On the 24th Admiral Dundas gave a return dinner to the Turkish Admiral, and on his arrival on board manned yards. On this occasion, too, the health of the Queen and that of the Sultan were respectively proposed, and on a light being shown from the flag ship the Bellerophon and Phaeton fired Royal salutes.

PORTSMOUTH, FRIDAY: --A trial was made to-day on Rat Island, in this harbour, of the efficacy of Phillips's patent tire annihilator, with the view of testing its capability to extinguish fire aboard ship. The Port Admiral and a large number of other dis tinguished officers were present at the experiment, which was made of 20 barrels of tar emptied into a ditch or trench and ignited, when the annihilator was brought into play on it successfully. Another expe riment was then tried upon a more extended scale, with about 60 empty tar barrels, but which was not so successful as the first. Application was made for a further trial, but the permission of the Lords of the Admiralty has to be obtained ere another trial can be granted. The Archer, 14, Commander Strange, has been taken into the angle dock to-day to repair defects. She has been stripped, and will have a thorough refit. Her crew will be paid wages next week.

She is only fitted With engines of 100-horse power, although she is 700 tons, but, being a good sailing vessel, her engines are seldom used. She had her compasses adjusted to-day by Captain Johnson, and, after taking her powder on board at Greenhithe, will leave for the Mediterranean station. TRIALS OF ANCHORS. WOOLWICH, SEPT. 15.—The anchors originally tested at Woolwich with the usual proof strain, and subse quently experimented with at Sheerness to ascertain their holding poa era and other qualities, were brought into the acchor-testing room at Woolwich Dockyard, to be broken, in the presence of Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, flag-captain of the Waterloo, 120, flag-ship at Sheerness; Captain Charles hope, of the Monarch, -84,.guareleship.of ordinary, and Superintendent of Sheer ness Dockyard; Captain Mundy, of the Liindon, 90, - at; Sheerness; Mr. James Tonkin, master of the Waterloo, 120; Mr. Cornelius T. A. Noddall, master of the Lon don, 90; Paymaster Frederick L. Fegen, secretary at Sheerness dockyard; Commandant Henry Eden, super intendent of Woolwich Dockyard; Captain Hall, R.N. ; Commander Stuart, Commander Woolcombe, Com mander Kerr, Commander Hon. A. J. Douglas, Lieute nant G. G. Phillips. Lieutenant W. Mould, and Lieute nant Wodehouse, e fficers studying steam at the factory at Woolwich Dockyard ; Mr. Atherton, chief engineer; Mr. Taplin, second assistant to the chief engineer ; Mr. Lennox, Lieutenant Rogers, Mr.. Trotman, Mr. Mit cham, and several others connected with the anchors, and Mr. Montagu Gore, and other scientific gentlemen, were also present to witness the trials. The first anchor placed in the testing frame was one of Lieutenant Rodgers' patent anchors, weighing 19 cwt. Sib , the usual testing strain of that weight being 19 tons. On 20 tons strain being applied, the deflection was a quarter of an inch, and it began to crack at 45 tons and again at 681 tone, 70k, 714, 72, 73, and broke its shackle at 73i- tons, which completed its trial. Mr. Mitcham having declined to have his anchor broken, one of Messrs. Brown and Lennox's anchors, weighing 20 cwt. 3 qrs. 141 b., was placed in the frame, the usual proof strait► being 21i tons. On 20 being ap plied it deflected 1-16th of an inch, and it cracked at 44i tons, and broke at 47 toes, the shank being broke even across at 2 feet 44 inches from the crow". Mr. Isaacs' American anchor, weighing 21cwt. Oqr. 141 b., was then placed in the frame, the usual proot strain being 211 ions. On 20 tons being applied it de flected 3-16ths of an inch, and cracked at 58 tons, and again at 61, 62, and broke at 63 in the shank, near the crown. Mr. Trotman's anchor, weighing 21 cwt. 1 qr., 101 b. was next placed in the testing frame, and on 20 tons being applied it deflected 11-16 the of an inch and cracked at 51i, and again at 53, and broke at 53i tons in the shank, 2 feet 4 inches from the crown. It was not intended to break Mr. Honiball's (late Porter's anchor), its principle being so similar to Trotman's, which was (made as an improvement upon it; but in consequence of Trotman's being the first made on his plan, and the peak found to press too much on the shank, it was decided that Mr. Honiball's should be broken. On being placed in the testing frame it began to crack on the application of 54 tons, again at 59k, 60k, 63, 66, and broke at 75i at 2 feet 3i inches from &tiepin in the crown. The upper arm broke at the same mo ment, a proof of the equal strength - of both parts of the anchor. The trials concluded at half•past four o'clock. P.M., by breaking one of the Admiralty anchors, which began to crack at 404, again at 48 4, 50, 514, 524, 534, 54, 544, and the arm came out of the crown at 564, Mr. Aylen's anchor will be broken to morrow.

It will consist of a soir e comique to be given by Mr. W. S. Woodin, a gentleman gifted, with extraordinary mimic powers, and the entertainment will be called The Carpet Bag and Sketch Book introducing living impersonations of the leading cha racters and features of the age. The entertainment is the result of a study extending over a period of several years, toed those who are in the secret confidently predict that it will surpass every thing of the sort that has yet been attempted in the metropolis.
