Reader, remember, this letter was put Info the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of Na. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this eppor- Malty of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstoae, of the Ilerbary, High gate for the eflicicy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using itabont four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than lever was before the baldness appeared. "Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to - the virtues of Mr. G.'s ftegenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an l Is, bottle if tkey were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, bet as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume itl far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a plcasare in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough." In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe drops en the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, snake it strong, and prevent it taming grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few drops en your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may Ilse this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence; its refreshing *dour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops on the crown et the head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In mast cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair su children's heads in a few appplicatieruf. If used on infants' heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influenee en the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See pamphlet of testimonials. All letters addressed to Grimstorie, tlerbarv. Hiabgato.

SUGGESTED BY THE IRISH STATE TRIALS. At a time like the present, we've very good reason To say a few words with regard to High Treason; For a subject like this is by no means too solemn For a matter of trade in a newspaper column. The only idea with E. MOSES and SON, Is to make such a topic a mercantile one. It is said that when persons excite revolution, As traitors, they owe a severe retribution. But here no allasion whatever is made To what may be termed, revelation in trade. E. MOSES and SON, as you all inset confess, Have caused a complete revolution in dress. And they've levied a war with the trade, as you know. But the war has been civil—remarkably so ; • And MOSES and SON in the efforts they've made. Hays endeavoured to make themselves monarchs in trade. Now, although in the State, this is viewed as High Treason, To apply it to trade is to speak without reason. Tho trial which MC. and SON have gone through, Proves them friends the public in all that they do. Their prime Autumn dress, in its wide distribution, Will prove them not foes to a good constitution. And thus has the subject of Treason been made To serve Messrs. MOSES and SON in their trade. E. MOSES and SON invite especial attention to their Shontincr coati, which possess a peculiar cut and style. adding much comfort la the It. E. M. and S. are convinced they will be much approved of ky the public. Shooting Coats, in a variety of materials from Ss. 6a. to 218. The Doeskin, or Elastic Coat, fr0m.......... 17s. Oil. to 325.

They have xo connexion with any other haunt in or out of London; and those who desire genuine and cheap clothing, &c., should call at, or send to, Miseries and Aldgate. City, London.

L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human breast. More exalted than mere passion, it sears high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its influence, er can avoid its sway; and business, pleasure, philo gophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling Power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly Poison in tits heart, which now darkens, as it before bright eßed, all things upon earth. 110 w is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to au honourable mind? It; is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be di squalified, and dares not enter a state which has been 'lnstituted by Divine TAW for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being must subsequently be uerend measure deplorable I Loving and beloved, he entails the 'Most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of Rt4ll•Yed happiness.

RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. By a misprint in the aceount of the opening of the Great Northern, it was stated that " in a few years the dues of the port of Grimsby had risen from 3,000/. to 7,0001.' It should have been 70,000/. PROPOSALS FOR REMEDYING THE PRESENT DEPRES. sron.-A large body of influential railway proprietors at Liverpool and other places are getting up a memorial to the directors of the London and North-Western and Midland Railways, suggestive of the best means of re storing confidence and remedying the present depression. It is being circulated and signed on the Exchange, and urges on the attention of directors the following im portant points :-That the capital accounts shall bo closed as soon as possible; that all outstanding accounts of the legal advisers shall be examined and paid off ; that the engineering expenses shall be placed on the most economical footing ; that the expenses at present being incurred in enlarging stations be limited, and that no such further expenses be incurred without the sanction of a majority of the shareholders; also, that no further engagements, whether contracts f or new li nes , t h e Bill s of which have been sancti one d by P ar li ament, an d con tracts for works not let, b e en t ere d i nto w i t h out suc h sanction; the rates of fare and tolls of all kinds not pro ductive of a fair remuneration to the shareholders for their outlay and risk, be raised at once, and where Par-. lianient has limited the powers of raising such rates and tells, that application be made next session to enable the t t h h a i t r d t h e e l a n s s e w trains dire directors to rais e th em to a remunerative scale; that the number of tr a i ns b e reduced as far as practicable; that c tboer s ru b n e s p e r p o a p r o a s t e e d ly, by at the expr ess tra i ns, except one per day at an increased rate of far e , b e taken off, and that first, second, and porti on t o t h e amount of fare paid. That the boards of directors be red uce d , that one-third - retire annually, and and not cho sen b y the board. t a he sp p eed rOpr in iet p o r r: By the completion and opening of the great bridges over the Tyne and Tweed on the North British, pas sengers are now enabled to travel by the East Coast route to Edinburgh and Glasgow without change of carriage. The train leaving Edinburgh at 9.30 A.X. reaches York at half-past three, and London soon after ten o'clock. THE RAILWAY TO BAGENALSTOWN.-We regret to learn that the works of the South-Eastern Railway, which were to connect the Carlow line with our city and the completion of which by next summer was so posi tively promised in a recent report of the directors, were discontinued in the early part of last week, and that It is not probable that they will be again resumed this year. Eleven miles of railway was only necessary to complete the line from this to the present terminus at Bagenals town, and it is most unfortunate for the interests of Kil kenny that want of funds should cause the discon tinuance of the works at present.-Kilhenny Moderator.

CELIBACY. —Singleness is not always the con sequence of disinclination, disappointed affection, or a diffi culty in meeting with a fit helpmate. Thousands of the unmarried would with joy embrace the sacred conditions of 3latrimeny, did they feel themselves equal to its obligations; and the chequered page of life reveals innumerable instances where, under that blighting consciousness, man has permitted the most ardent afec tam to consume him to the grave, rather than consign its object to that life of unmitigable anguish ant fettered solitariness into which his affianced would be plunged if lie married. Some are, however, wilful enough to gain the affections of the other sex under these circumstances; and, though not se villanous as to proceed to the altar, will make such excuses for procrastination as contribute to his selfish desire of exclusively enjoying her society, by precluding her from accepting other offers. There is scarcely a street where this history is not enacted ; and yet with the exercise of common foresight, its frequency might b. so -lessened as to ren der an instance rare throughout the entire kingdom. The disqualifications for Marriage have more than oneprfreary source ; the chief of which is Impuissance, arising from four causes:—namely, Natural Deficiency ; the Prostration produced by Early Mabits ; the Weakening effects of Later Excesses ; And Nervousness of Tempera ment ; the next sources of importance are hereditary and acquired disease ; and, lastly, men are prevented from marrying by the erects of disease—which, when 111-cured, leaves traces that forbid all im pulse towards wedlock. In each of these instances it is unhappily too common for the sufferer to consider his case beyond remedy, and is fails to consult even his own medical attendant. such will fad all obstacles removed by reference to a valuable Manual on Nervous Debility and Generative diseases, the thirty-seventh •thousand of which has just been published by its Authors, J.

Physical incapacity ' and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happi nes s and social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement.

The deceased and witness were at their work, when the young man went up tho air road for two picks; he had &lamp with him, but it was without a top. An explosion of fire-damp took place; deceased was severely burnt and otherwise injured. He was attended by a person named Rose, but he died at ten o'clock on Thursday night last.

PAPERS OF THIS pain TIMES. —London now contains considerably more than two millions of inhabitants, a population double of that which could be found in England and Wales at the time of the Conquest. When we tak.- into account the other large towns of the kingdom, especially those lying in the manufacturing districts, it may be safely asserted that the world has not yet seen such an example of a purely urban population. ['he vast multitudes who inhabit the towns are with drawn almost entirely from the feudal influences which still, in some measure, obtain in the country districts. There is b u t little notion of protection and dependence. The relation of patron and client, of lord and vas sa l, h as disappeared in the towns, and in place of it we find a mutual dependency, ori ginating in relative wants. We are neither broach ing a theory which • might give umbrage to Lord John Manners, nor clearing the ground for philosophic Ch ar ti sm ; neither admiring nor cen suring, but simply enunciating a fact. That fact is one of terribl e importance. It means that the great mass of our urban communities, under their present aspect, are necessarily exposed to g!'eat and constant vicissitudes of fortune. " A fair day's wages for a fair day's work" •but a time is their cry, comes when they cannot get a fair day's wages, let them work never so fairly. Their employers cannot pay the fair day's wages, and are often obliged to refuse even the day's work. Then comes the half meal, and the no meal, the " distress," the sale of the few decent articles of furnitur e , a nd the open street. Poverty, howev er , i s b u t one of the spasms to wliich a great city is condemeed. Bring two millions of human beings into close contact, and give their passions full play, the, result is London:, Take into account all the impulses, either to self-destruction or to the destruction of others, which priginate in the passions of this vast multitude, their domestic bickerings, their digappointed hopes, , the relations between the sexes, or the greed of gain, and it may be imagined that every possible bar and impediment should be thrown by the authorities, who are re eponsible before God for the safety of these multitudes, between the impulse and the act—the frenzy and the accomplishment of its design. Now, what will be said when we tell the public that the Legislature calmly looks on while the most tempting hopes of secresy are held out to the hesitating assassin, and an , easy painless termination of all suffering is suggested to the despairing man, who asks ;no better than to turn his face to the wall and die in peace. He need but cross his threshold, and he will be invited to the shops where, for a few pence, he can purchase death for himself or others. There is no mistake possible in the spots where the article is sold, no pos sibility of overlohking them by day or by night. With their gaudy and transparent vases, red, green, and blue, illuminated from behind by jets of gas, they attract the poor wretches' attention. Like the insects that flutter round our lamps and tapers at night, he may struggle and hesitate for a time, but, like them, he rushes in and is lost. With his last three' or four pence he can purchase in the druggist's shop that which makes him master of his own life, and the lives of his fellows. A smirking boy takes down a jar from the shelf and pours of its contents into the little phial ; he covers over the cork with red paper clipped with due pre cision, and neatly labels it as " Poison." No ques tions are asked. The apothecary's boy shovels the pence into the till, and proceeds to spread his plaisters, or roll out his pills, as though the distribution of poison were but one of the ordinary functions of his craft. We will not enlarge upon this theme. The humanity or pre caution of individuals may induce them to hesitate at times. Few druggists, probably, and few druggists' apprentices, would vend a poisonous drug to a man who rushed into the shop with a disturbed look and haggard eye. This, however, is a defence too slight and insufficient for the community. Crime and de spair have a thousand shifts. A simulated toothache will induce an apothecary's boy "to make up three penn'orth of laudanum" at one shop, and three penny worth more can be obtained in the same way else where. Rats are troublesome, and a small portion of arsenic is required to destroy theist withal. While the sale of poison is legal, there can be no difficulty in hatching up a pretext by which it may be obtained. Here is an instance :—On Tuesday last, Sarah Rich was brought up before Mr. Hammill, at Worship• street, at the instance of the authorities of the London Hospital, charged with having attempted to destroy herself by swallowing a large quantity of laudanum. "Mr. Samuel Birch, house-surgeon at the hospital, who attended to support the charge, stated that be felt it his duty to adopt those proceedings in consequence of the numerous cases of a similar kind which bad recently come under his professional notice, and the frequent re currence of which he attributed in a great measure to the indiscriminate and mischievous manner in which poisons of almost every description were constantly sold over the counters of druggists and other p ersons who dealt in such articles. The prisoner bro ught to the vas hospital, in a state of comp lete after stupefaction, on the night of Tuesday week, and, the usual means had been successfully resorted to; t o dislodge the . poison, and restore her to conscionsa e l ss, she voluntarily acknow ledged having taken no east than siapennyworth of laudanum, which shelled p . urchased at two different shop, but at neither of which, eared, had the slightest precaution been adopted to it appeared, guard against its improper application. The investigation having disclosed ' the set ,„atton of several previous cases heale culpable want of caution in almost every instance,was induced to give the pri soner into custody, not so for her individu..l punis much with the view of pressing under the juiicial notice m f ent as to place the subject that he would be able to o the m ag i stra t e , i n th e h ope a check upon th e fatal facsialggest some mode of imp os i ng commission of suc h offe nce rz at pres en t a fford e d f or the We cannot help thinking. must have been someth that in this case th ere In facility with which th g peculiarly gross_ in th e the deadly drug.

From this gentleman's eviden ce it dthat absolutely the only restricti on upon eepspaaeleroef these deadly drugs is that the che m i st who vends them shall affix to the Phial a label inscribed in legible charact ers with the word " Poismo King John, if we remem ber right, says to Hubert in the play— ' " HOW oft the sh , ht of means to do ill deeds Makes ill deeds done!" If the desire for destruction could not be .gratified at the moment, so variable and fluctuating is the mind of man, especially when under the influence of high excitement, most probably it would pass off and he replaced by c almer and less guilty thoughts. The horrible disclosures that have recently taken place in Essex show that the crime of secret poisoning is not confined to the urban population alone. Here, again, had a difficulty existed in obtaining the arsenic with which the crimes were perpetrated, it is more than probable they would never have occured. Loose and unsatisfactory as is the present mode of attesting the causes of death, a blackene d face or a lacerated throat would have given too evident indication of the mur derer's guilt. it seems that considerable practical difficulty exists in forbidding the sale of arsenic, as it enters so largely into processes of trade. The matter should be inquired into by competent witnesses. Would the necessity in which parties who required the article for commercial and legitimate purses would be placed of obtaining a certificate from a pro per officer be too vexatious a restriction ? It is a balance of evils, but the present system is very bad. With regard to the more a ctive and concentrated drugs, where no such plea as the above can be urged, there is no doubt that their sale should be forbidden save under medical authority. CHRONICLE—The blame of absurd verdicts is not always to be i mpu t e d to jurymen. Judges, who ought to know better, sometimes leave to them ques tions which juries are not properly entitled to de• cide, and tempt, or almost force, them into verdicts that insure impunity, where the act charged has, be yond all doubt, been committed, and where the law, on the finding of the Act, would have implied the in tention that made it criminal. The question of mo tive is, in many cases, o ne of law arising upon facts. The jurym en h ave t o find the facts, and then the duty of the judge commences; he has to apply to those facts the rules of law, and to declare the motive which, from such facts, those rules will infer. He cannot rightfully relieve himself from this task by throwing it on the jurors. If he adopts such a course, he com mits a great error, an d perhaps creates a mischievous precedent. A case, which was reported in our paper on Monday, furnishes an apt illustration of these re marks. A Mr. Dolby, described es " a practical chemist," was indicted at the Middlesex Sessions for a misdemeanour—the offence charged being, the " placing certain noxious matter near the door of a certain room occupied by Sarah Wild and her chil dren, whereby they were rendered ill." The proof of the fact appears to have been complete.

OCTOBEZ 20 1848 . , ki • 'endant was the holder of a house in which the prose cutor, his wife, and family were lodgers; quar rels arose between the wives of the prose cutor and th e d e f endant, and as the report gently insinuates, these quarrels " coupled with causes of a pecuniary character, determined Mr. Dolby to feet rid of his lodgers." Whether he re sorted to distraining the goods of the lodger in order o satisfy his claim for rent, or adopted any other o: the many means which the law allows. a landlord in such a case, the report does not clearly inform us; we Are merely told, in general terms, that when "no other means suceeeded," Mr. Dolby "caused his ap prentice to put some chemical matter into a pot, and having set it on fire, to place it close to the door of the room which was in the occupation of the prosecutor's family." Thus Mr. Dolby's skill was exerted in this manceuvre; his knowledge as a practical chemist was , called into action ; science was used to effect what he dared not attempt by force, and what he could only gain at law by a process too tedious, perhap s , f or hi s active impatience. He tried t o smoke out his tenants, but he did it in a scientific manner ; and what might, from an ordinary man, have hien a mere annoyance, became, in the hands of a practical chemist, a highly dangerous ialiction. In fact, says the report "not only Mrs. Wild, but all the children were nearly suffocated. They remained very ill for some days ; whilst Mrs. Wild became extremely ill, as she had not long been out of her confinement." The • mixture which the science of the defendant enabled him thus cruelly to employ, and which he set his apprentice to fire, was one evolving phosphuretted hydrogen, which the medical witnesses declargd to be one of the most offensive and noxious of aA the gases.. Such appear to have been, in substance the facts of the easbe, as detailed at the 'Middlesex Court of Quarter Sessions; and on these facts. the question left by the Judge to the jury was, whether the defendant had placed the mixture at the door of the prosecutor's room with the intention of injuring the health of his family, or simply as a means of annoy ance. Now, in this case, where the defendant's knowledge of the deleterious qualities of the com pound was undoubted, the jurors had surely nothing to do with his "intention," except so far as their opinion respecting it might, or might not, induce them to recommend the Court to pass a lenient sentence. But being , thus called on to pronounce on the point of " intention," they found that the intention was that of annoyance; whereupon the prosecutor's counsel, rather unad visedly, at once consented to a verdict of acquittal. As to this particular case itself, we say nothing ; every one will form his own opinion of the defendant's conduct. But the blunder committed by the Judge deserves notice, for it may mislead other chairmen of quarter sessions, and may introduce a mode of deal ing with such cases no less mischievous than illegal. If the defendant knew what must be the effect of the burning mixture, the question of intention was not one of fact, but of law—a question not for the decision of the jury, but of the judge. In the lan guage of Lord Elienborough, " when a man is charged with doing an act of which the probable consequence iney be highly injurious, the intention is an inference of law from the doing of the act." If a man placed a loaded gun at the door of a room, knowing that there were human beings in that room, and then fired it off, and killed one of those human beings, the law would imply malice on his part against the particular individual so killed, and an indictment alleging such malice would be good. This has been so often decided that it is difficult to conceive how Mr. Sergeant Adams can have been ignorant of the principle. It would be fatal to the safety of society if the law did not adopt such a doc trine; for otherwise a man might wilfully fire a pistol among the passengers of a crowded street, and then escape punishment, on the ground that he had no ex• press malice against the individual on whom his shot took deadly effect. In the caA of the loaded gun, the law presumes malice on the part of the man who wilfully fires it off among his fellow-creatures, be cause the destructive qualities of the weapon are known to all. The same presumption would not apply indiscriminately with respect to a chemical cern- pound, since every one does not know the nature of such a compound, and the effects which it is capable, of producing. But these things must be known to a " practical chemist," and the existence of such knowledge raises the legal presumption of that unlawful intention which is requisite to support an indictment, and to make a defendant punishable for his act. The mode in which this case was left to the jury in volves a principle as dangerous to society as it is unwarranted by law. The result produced by the , burning mixture was injurious —it might have been fatal. Apply the principle of Mr. Sergeant Adams' direction to the jury to any other case—to that of a loaded gun, of a train of gunpowder laid at a person's door, or of arsenic scattered over his food— and the perilous tendency of Mr. Sergeant Adams' reasoning becomes at once apparent. We will ven ture to say, that there is not one of the fifteen judges who, in any of the cases supposed, would dream of telling a jury to consider whether the intention had been merely to frighten by the 'discharge of the gun, to fill the room with smoke by the firing the train, or to produce tem porary sickness by the employment of the arsenic. The use of such things in such a manner is unlawful and criminal, and if death follows from their premeditated use, the law accounts the act felonious. The knowledge of the quality of the thing used implies, in the consideration of the law, the malicious intention ; and delib era t eness i n the choic e an d emp l oyment o materials gives to the legal the force of a moral presumption. It is to be hoped that there were, in this case, mitigating circumstances which the report does not disclose; there might have been likewise, for aught we know, other objections to the indictment; but the direction of the:Judge, as it now stands recorded, is, as to this particular point of the defendant's "intention," undoubtedly erroneous and unquestionably mischievous. EETING OF MIDDLESEX MAGISTRATES. Yesterday the magistrates of the county of Mid dlesex met at Hicks' Hall, Clerkenwell, for the trans action of the usual county business, Mr. Pownall occupied the chair. The Court proceeded to receive the reports of the various committees. The report of the finance committee recommended the Court to authorise the county treasurer to pay bills to the amount of 11,3711. 61. id , which was agreed to. T s PRISO N REPORTS.—FrOM the r eports o f the visiting justices of the various prisons it seemed that the general health of all those establishments was good. In Celilhathfields there were 896 male and 2G5 female prisoners; in the Westminster Bridewell, 541 male, 295 female, and 14 infant prisoners; and in the House of Detention there were 73 male and 30 female prisoners: total, 2,114. The report stated that the abolition of the treadmill, as far as female prisoners were concerned, had been attended with re sults of a most beneficial kind.' The space formerly occupied by those ponderous machines was now occupied by werkshops in which the female p r i soners were taught tailoring, dress making, and 'various other useful handicrafts, by which, on their release from prison, on the expiration of their sentences, they could be enabled to earn a subsistence by honest industry. The effects of the alteration were indeed so gratifying, that the justices hoped soon to see the treadmills in the male depart ments likewise abolished. Several boys had been so well drilled on the model ship in the prison, that they were proficient enough to be sent to sea, and there seemed to be no doubt but that they would prove able and good • seamen. The regulations by which well behaved prisoners became periodically entitled to stripes, indicative of good conduct, similar to the system in the army, had also produced results of highly satisfactory character.—The Court then elected visiting committees, and a mortgage on the county rates for 10,0001. for the New Lunatic Asylum was executed. A discussion of some duration then took place relative to a special report upon the mode in which the Court elected the visiting justices. Ultimately the Court decided that in future no magistrates should be on the committee of two prisons at one time, excepting the chairman of any• committee, who will he on the committee of all the prisons, and that tha clerk of the peace should pre pare a list of all those magistrates who ware willing to sarve as visiting justices. Tiim COUNTY RATE. --On the m o ti on of Mr. FRESIIF/ELD a committee was appointed to consider whether any and what measures are necessary to facilitate the assessment of the county rate, and to provide for the occasional variations in the rateable ol valuable of particular localiti es i n the county,eyn d s were Messrs. Child, Reeves, W r i g h t, and R re-appointed inspectors of weights and measures for the received the a nnua l returns of the go- T e h n e su cionlgutyear. vernors, chaplains, and surgeons of the county pri sons, and ordered them to be recorded. The Court transacted other routine business, and soon after adjourned. Brighton .is full of visitors. All e th hotels are overflowing; and th e arr i vals continue to greatly out number the departures. Brighton is now decidedly the gayest of the gay. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. • The Admiralty Committee for revising the dockyard establishment and :working completed their labours at Chatham on Tuesday evening, and at a quarter to four on the following morning proceeded in the Black Eagle, Admiralty steam-yacht, Master Commander Cook, to Portsmouth, at which port they arrived on the same evening, and on the followini, morning commenced their task of revision at the office of the Rear-Admiral Super intendent.

The Count, with Captain Fitzroy, Lieutenant Fowler, and Mr. Lang, went lon board the Royal Albert, 120 guns, to witness the progress of that splendid first-class ship of war, and greatly admired the fine appear ance of the vessel and the strong manner in which her timbers are put together. On arriving where the Light ning was stationed, his Excellency was received by Master-Commander Petley, and on leaving the harbour, was saluted by 15 guns fired on board the Fisgard frigate. The Lightning is to return to Woolwich from Copenhagen. The Medina steam-vessel, formerly in the Liverpool mail-packet service, was commissioned at this port to day, by Lieutenant-Commander Abraham Darby, for service as a mail steam-packet on the Mediterranean service. The General Palmer'trcnsport•ship arrived at moor ings opposite the Royal Arsenal yesterday, and disem barked Captain Blackwood, two sergeants, two corporals, and 20 gunners of the Royal Artillery, with one sergent, five corporals, and six privates of the Royal Sappers and Miners, from the Hudson's Bay Company's territories. These detachments went out in 1846—the Royal Artil lery to mount guns, and the Sappers and Miners to survey the disputed lands known as the Oregon Territory. They embarked on the Red River on the 3d •f August last, and made a remarkably fine passage home. They all appear in the enjoyment of excellent health, and only one death occurred during the whole period —one of the Sappers being drowned about a fortnight before the others left on their return home. Their arrival took place here between eleven and twelve o'clock, during the time of guard mounting, and the men on shore loudly cheered the arrival of the General Palmer, which was heartily responded to ,by the men and sailors on board the vessel. On landing, the band was ordered to remain to play them to the gar rison. One Sergeant, two corporals, and 24 privates of the Woolwich division of Royal Marines, joined at head quarters on Saturday last, on being paid off from the Amphion steam-frigate at Sheernes.
