GLOVER. 'The circulation given to a statement tending to invalidate the . e.,.xPression of Dr. Glover's opinion In favour of Pale Ale, compels ALLSOPP and SONS to connect this remarkable dis tribution' of a calumny with other insidious attacks upon their firm Which they have reason to know proceed from an unworthy and unneighbourly jealously. Messrs. ALLSOPP and SONS, in reply, deem it their best course to adopt the same line of conduct as in the case of the similar perversion and mutilation of Baron Liebig's meaning, so indignantly repudiated by that eminent man himself. They pub lish, therefore, without abridgement, the letter they received from Dr. Glover, (having his permission to do so) ; a letter the more Valuable because it was not intended for publication, and is an unpre meditated evidence of that learned Chemist's just appreciation of Pale Ale, 44; 30e; ,o OCTOBER 16, 1852. 25e t, ter 6.

I kilow there are bitters which might be used beneficially, in a I nad_ical point of view. " With regard to analysing your beer, my time is taken up, so far na analysing and chemistry are concerned, with two kinds or in .,l`"ries—lst, those which are purely scientific ; and 2d, those which - Profitable.

But that I am not now tia the habit of drinking Bitter Beer, I should be glad to show my i timidencs by drinking plenty of it." ALLSOPP and SONS beg to refer to the letter of Mr. ONRY ALLSOPP on this subject, in the Monthly Journal of 4 Medical Science " for October, in the concluding paragraph of which at is said— I inserted Dr. Glover's good-natured remark on my Bitter Beer .1 1 , 5 ,- an ' incidental testimonial'—no more. I never called it cer "ucate,' nor did I apply to him, or any other medical gentleman, for one.

ALLSOPP and SONS, in conclusion, wish to draw the i,,,,_`_;"'Jn of the public and the trade to the fact, that, by this dis- Zsueltious system of attack and the perversions of facts gra:ni ece adoified, they are unwillingly drawn into that publicity the Bun g of which is made an accusation against them. o n - on-Trent, Oct. 8, 1852.

FIRING SIGNAL ROCKETS NEAR THE PURFLERT POWDER MAGAZPNES.—The Board of Ordnance have issued a warning to the masters and pilots of vessels passing up and down the River Thames, not to fire signal rockets from their ships in the vicinity of Purfleet powder magazines. It ap pears that some steamers lately discharged rockets on pass ' ing the depot, a proceeding fraught with the greatest pos sible danger. Sparks from rockets have often been known to cause serious fires, and such a calamity occurring near the magazines, if not on the works themselves, would be likely to lead to the most dreadful alarm, if not something more. The Board of Ordnance have cautioned pilots and mariners not to fire after entering Long Beach, and be tween Crayfordness and Coal Harbour Point. Parties offending after this notice will be proceeded agains t as guilty of a misdemeanour. The quantity of powder stored at Par fleet is immense. They are the largest magazines near the metropolis. - Notice has been given of the purchase and cancel ment of 494 special bonds of the Danish Three per Cent, Loan of 1825, amounting to 49,7001., being the 55th half yearly operation on account of ita redemption.

"Dear Sir,—As I find great interest taken in Liver pool in the efficiency of life boats, I enclose a copy of our letter to the secretary of Lloyd's, containing some infor mation respecting the Lytham life-boat. " IL is much to be feared that the benevolent intentions of the National Shipwreck Institutions will be frustrated if they place Beching's prize model boats' at all their stations, especially on this coast; they are totally un suited 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 mariners, aro now more likely to become marine undertakers to the boatmen along the coast. "The Dock Committee deserve great oredit for de. dining to substitute these prize models for their own efficient boats, built by Contain, of Liverpool. "I am, dear Sir, yours tru C. ly, " HENRY CHAPMAN. " To Thomas Court, Esq., Secretary Under writers' Association. (Copy.) 1852. " Liverpool, Oct. 5, " 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 hard from N.W. with rain. " The capsizing of the Lytham life-boat, resulting in such a serious and melancholy loss of life, was an event fully expected. Some three weeks ago the trustees of the Southport life-boat had the crew mustered for exercise, and we pro ceeded to Lytham, there to examine this patent life boat,as the master of the Southport life-boat (an old man-ot-war's man, named Rawcliffe) pronounced her to be unsafe in the sea and tideways of this coast. On landing we found a very superior boat-house, built at the expense of the lord of the manor, dr. Talbot Clifton, of Lytham Hall. Inside everything was in keeping, no expense having been spared. Lieutenant Killick, the superintendent of our Southport boat, co incided with us in pronouncing the patent life-boat dan gerous, and inefficient if required to tak e a numerous crew from a wrck. " Such a boat might be well enough in the hands of the smart, skilful boatmen of Kent, Yarmouth, and the east coast pilots, and fishermen accustom ed to cobles, but in charge of , half-and-half boatmen such boats are most dangerous—they have too much top hamper, and must be crank. " The Lytham men laid great stress on the boat right ing herself quickly if she capsized: this riled old Raw. chtfe; he could not contain himself any longer, and, clearing his mouth of his quid, he exclaimed in good broad Lancashire, Capsizing and righting be —; we wants a boat as won't capsize! If so bs 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 sup posed to be adapted to every sea coast. Trials, unfortunately, are not made in gales of wind and in heavy seas. A calm river or dock basin is generally chosen for the experiment, just as we read of steamers being tried in Long Reach 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 Heligoland and back in a sharp gale would enable prac tical men to pronounce some opinion of the capabilities of the vessel, but after a pleasant airing down the Thames, and a splendid banquet, what can people do otherwise than observe Baillie Nicol Jarvie's maxim, not to accept a man's hospitality, and abuse the axis , behind his back?' " Wo 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 have unbounded confidence. " We remain, Sir, your obedient servants, " HENRY C. CHAPMAN AND Co. Agents for Lloyd's. "Captain G. A. Halsted, Secretary, Lloyd's."

LAUNCH OF A PRUSSIAN STEAM PACKET.--A very handsome steam-vessel, built for the Prussian Post-office service. was launched from the building-yard of Messrs. C. J. Mare and Co., of Blackwell, on Thursday last. She is 570 tons, 164 feet 8 inches in length, 25 feet 6 inches in breadth, and 16 feet in depth, and is to be propelled by paddle-wheel oscillating-engines, by Penn and Co., of 120 horse-power. Her lines bespeak the quality of speed, and with a draft of 15 miles an hour, it is expected, w ill b e h er water ri of 10 feet, LONDON (WATFORD) SPRING WATER COMPAN Y. A meeting of the shareholders was held on Thursday at the London Tavern, Bishopsgattenstreet ; Mr. Hope in the chair. t The CHAIRMAN said the object of the meeting was to lay before the shareholders a stafement of the pro ceedings that had been taken in their effaire and also a statement of the financial position of the company. He had no doubt that every gentleman had made himself acquainted with the report, in which the di rectors had given, he trusted, a clear idea of what had been done, and the circumstances that had pre vented the succese of their undertaking in the last session of Parliament. It was necessary to be guarded in their statements, aril consequently thee had not been able to express in the report CS strongly as they should have wished their sense of the hardsinp of the position in which they were placed. The oompaey was first established in 1850; hut the Gsiernment then had a Bill of their own, proposing to buy up all the existing water companies; and though an apprehension that the Government measure would be hampered if any new company were allowed to ob tain the legislative sanction, the Bill introduced by their company was thrown out on the second reading. The same causes operated against them in 1351; but, it appearing in 1852 that the moment had arrived for pressing forward the scheme, owing to the demand for sanitary improvement, their Bill ass again brought forward. The Chairman then referned to the proceedings in the last session, and to other matters which are fully set forth in the following report, which was read by the secretary : "The provisional directors of the London (Watford) Spring Water Company for the session 1V52, have to lay before their shareholders and the public the follow ing report of their proceedings. On Thursdayitthe 25th of March last, a motion for the second roadie% of the Bill was made in the House of Commons, and ovas car ried by a majority of three to one: 196 membeis voting in favour of the Bill, and 65 against it. The Committee of the House of Commons appointed during 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 Middletex 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 p ur p ose t h ey 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 th e 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 was first introduced into Par liament in the year 1850, and was then rejected on the second reading, not on 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 supported by the inhabitants of the metropolis in general, and es pecially by those of the districts embraced in the Bill. Ie an able opening speec h before the Committee, your counsel, Mr. Hope, made a clear and intelligible statement of the nature of the project and proposed operations of billFoy. Thirty-eight witnesses in favour of the were subsequently examined, and other valuable evidence was' at command, which, from the limit as to time, could not be heard. The committee could, therefore, came 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 Teddingten Lock, and after filtration, has proved that the amount of dead and decaying animal cud vegetable matter contained in it are such as to render it unwhole some; nineteen different species of living animals and also fungi have been shown by Dr. Lsncester, F.R.S., and Dr.ltedfern, to abound in such water. Your din eters believe that the evidence given before Parliament, do monstrates that the source of the water proposed to be re sorted to by the company, is fully adequate in quantity, end pre-eminent from its excellent quality. The number of shares taken in the company on which the deposit has be , 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 11s. 6d. per share. This return will be made as soon as it is pos sible to withdraw from the Accountant-General the de posit lodged with him according to the requirements of the mending orders of Parliament, which will be ear l y in November. The expenses would hive 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 w ill have the effect hereafter o f mate rially facilitating the progress of the 13111 through Par liament. Under the existing law, it is impossible to carry the company forward without commencing the preliminary Parliamentary proceedings de novo; but the shareholders can d o this if they see fit, and renew t heir application fo r an A ct in the e nsuing session. 'Your di rectors, in conclusion, h ave to sta t e , that their opinion is unchangedas to the advanta g es likely to result from the establishment of this and the carrying out comny, 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, f rom 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 16 s. p er share on th e 12,387 shares on which 275. 6d. per share had been deposited. On the motion of Mr. ADAM, seconded by Mr. HOLMES, the report and statement of accounts were adopted. On the motion of Mr. HOLMES, seconded by Mr. LAURIE, a vote of thanks was passed to the directors for the able manner in which they discharged the duties devolving upon them. A resolution was also passed by which the company was declared to be dissolved, 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 he 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. On 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 see 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. He 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 be 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 fav d oura p ble osition now occupied by the company, no 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 coupetitiori. He calculated that the shareholders in this undertaking i 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. ROYAL SWEDISH RAILWAY COMPANY.

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 V. Belgrave, re-appointed to the Leander, 50, Portsmouth. Naval Instructor—M. P. Saenbell, re-appointed to the Leander. Alates—A. J. Lines, 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 Dacres, when he 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 t_ .. o 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 let 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 13 1. 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 he above 4,0001 be. 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 nacre s, fittin g at Da venport, is n ow 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 Sennennora—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. a • Ajax, 58, screw guar l a-siiip, Captain Quin, will not he ready to leave PortsnianM for Queenstown before the sth November. She will be out of the hands 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 ranshawe s furniture. Rolla, apprentices' tender, Lieutenant-Commander Fenwick, went into Portsmouth harbour yesterday, from Spithead. Termagant, 24, screw-frigate, Captain Giffard, is now reported ready for sea at Portsmouth, this day. Tartarus, steatn•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 Fencibles will do duty in the Forts Ricasoli and Tigne, occupying Fort Manoel as their head quarters. The Sultan, from Eegland, 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 Dundus ar• rived in the Bay of Salamis on the evening of the 3d 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, gic., 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 Nizamiti, 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 of 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. On the departure of Ahmet Pasha, the ship was illuminated with blue lights, portfires, &c., and, to add to the effect a light was shown from every port, and several rockets were fired. The inspections of the 68th and the Fencibles, prior to the removals above-mentioned, have taken place this week, in the presence of General FergUSSOU, an to his great satisfaction. cne h d. havl e o b m o i t t h te b d ee t on dockedmentio mention that urin gthteheßNavneeshketeoabned Medina le aT They were both, the latte r especially,h very foul four e Medina had coral, ehell-fisb, &c., to the depth of inches. e jned.

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 ploy on it successfully. Another expe riment was then tried upon a more extended scale, with about 60 empty tar burrels, hut 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.

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 paidle-wheel steam-vessel Barra couta, C, Mr. S.

WOOLWICH, OCT. 15.—The Wasp steam-sloop, Commander Lord John Hay, when she went down the river yesterday was tried at the measured mile to ascertain her speed, when she was found to make on an average of four runs, two down and two up, 6 3-10 knots per hour. 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 Greenhit he,l will leave for the Mediterranean station. A,ad TRIALS OF ANCHORS. _ rOOLWICH, SEPT. 15.—The anchors originally tested at Woolwich with the usual proof strain, and subse quently experimented with at Sheerness to ascertain their holding powers and other qualities, were brought into the anchor-testing room at W oolwich Dockyard, to be broken, in the presence of Captain the Hon. Montagu Stopford, ilsg•captain of the Waterloo, 120, flag-ship at Sheerness; Captain Charles Hope, of the Monarob, 84, guard ship of ordinary, and Superintendent of Sheer nets Dockyard; Captain Mundy, of the London, 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, Commande r Hon. A. J. Douglas, Lieute nant G. G. Phillips, Lieutenant W. Mould, and Lieute nant Wodehouse, officers 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. 81b,, the usual testing strain of that weight being 19i 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 684 tons, 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 strain being 21k tons. On 20 being ap plied it deflected 1-16th of an inch, and it cracked at 44i tons, and broke at 47 tons, the shank being broke even across at 2 feet 44 inches from the crown. Mr. Isaacs' American ancLor, weighing 21cwt. Oqr. 141 b., was then placed in the frame, the usual proof strain being 211- tons. On 20 ton; being applied it de flected 3-16ths of an inch, and cracke: l at 58 tons, and again at 61, 62, and broke at 63 in t he sh,:!•uk, near the eroWri. Mr. Trotman's anchor, weighing 21 cwt. 1 101 b.. was next placed in the testing frame, and on 26 tons being applied it deflected 11-16ths of an inch mid cracked at 511, 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 59i, 60i, 63, 66, and broke at 753- at 2 feet 3i inches from the pin 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 hal f- p ast four o'clock, P.m., by breaking ono of the Admiralty anchors, which began to crack at 40k, again at 48k, 50, 51k, 52k, 53i, 54, 54i, and the arm came out of the crown at 56k, Mr. Aylen's anchor will be broken to-morrow. A NOVEL ENTERTAINMENT.--There is always something looming in the future for the public amusement, at least, if not for their material benefit, and now that the long evenings have set in we may shortly expect an abundant crop of new exhibitions. We have heard one s poken of that seems to be quite novel in its idea. It will replace the Marionette at the Adelaide Gallery, and there is little doubt that it will prove highly attractive. It will consist of a soiree comique to be given by Mr. W. S. Woodin, a gentleman giftedi 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, mad 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. THE SUBTERRANEAN TELEGRAPH TO DOVER. — An interruption to the laying down of this electric telegraph was offered on the 12th inst. by the Canterbury station master of the South-Eastern Conipany, who persisting ill his opposition, and the contractor of the works being equally firm to proceed, the latter was handed over to the custody of a railway policeman. On a hearing at the Guildhtlentehiel charge against the contractor was dismissed. T advised the station-master to allow the works t toehperoceed, and said that they were prepared to preserveeuch p h an extreme eace of the city, even to calling out the militarytihfe station-master gave step were way, and the wires in. Su less bseq than huentlya H an hour were de posited under the permanent way, and the lin e of ho le work to Dover communi cation to London was secu red. The w will be executed in the course of a week or _so, whe_n that important point will have the advantage of two lines of electric telegraph to the metropolis.. The road line consists of six wires. The present telegraph is on the South-Eastern line, and is the property of, and is worked by, that company THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH .--PLYMOUTH, OCT. 15, —The wires of the electric telegraph are now connected and nearly ready for public use from Exeter to the premises at the Union Baths. which have been taken by the company for that purpose. This is a situation central to the three t o wn s of Plymouth, Devon Port, and Stonehonse. Another set of l a id in pipes along Union -street to the dock wires are beitg yard, where they will be established in one of the public offices as near aspossible to the port-admirars residence. It expected•that these will be ready for use by the Govern ment in about three or four weeks. Arrangements have also been made by the Telegraph Company to have two dis patches a day from Falmouth by the Cornish mails, and any information brought by them will be immediately trans ' mitted direct to London or the north of England, with which , these wires will be in communication.

Collett:— Burnley Hall, 10t The followingHrme, . p.: , 10th Oct., 1852. „ pear Sir,—Your letter of the 7th instant only reached me yesterday, and I hasten to answer your question. ~ In the first piace, you are right in using your best efforts to increase the number of associations for re moval of the taxes on knowledge, and I think the qua!: tion becomes daily more and more approved of by all persons except the Whigs and Tories—both t.hese par ties oppose, as they consider Government and l theirs alone; and that the spread of knowledge e n their monopoly of power and profit! its s clngera profits Lord John Russell, of which you _Tr: h repeal of these " When I look back to the deputationonteb,aatnaditehnedaevdd his declaration that ho consitrollie, and yet, after the taxes only as a question ft - b e : a : cgs which the association on that subject, refused to e d v o id a e a n y c t e k b io e g for t e ow th a e rd e s om mio o t c t , he b s d" the power, I must protest have in view, when association demeaning them e assistance, now that he is out altogether s e l v es to ask Lord cannot d o anything to aid us in the of power, and w make professions, I dare say, bat Ho wall no struggle. . skagainst:thhae, aaanndothsiisucdo-nothing policy sincere as a Reformer us• and, I should consider t hem hollow and valueless. both civil an d for e at o li r g d ia io j l o s h , s n o. after the speech on my motion for re I considera rd s , when he could have acted and could have afE erw , Reformers together, and have kept the Tories kept to, ou t of powo.. , I would not pay him the compliment that you propose. I wish I could look on his speech at Perth as honest and sincere—which I do not; and I therefore object to the association demeaning itself by the course you propose. We shall certainly succeed—but it will be against both the Whiga and Tories; and I would hold both parties cheap in regard to their assistance. " All the Whigs deprecate in words the fettering of the press; and yet, with power in their hands, they have pertinaciously refused to knock off any one link of the enslaving chain that prevents the spread of knowledge and the education of the nation. " I hope that Mr. Cobden and other members will agree with me, and that you will keep a high ha nd, and set the two great oppressing parties at a distance. " I remain, your obedient servant, " JOSEPIi HUMS. " To Mr. C. D. Collett." --- ----- Letters from St. Petcrsburgh of the 6th instant state that the affairs of M. Podsossoff, who latent. ly . su ended, had been arranged. He wa s to p ay 10 per ce in cash, and the remainder in full by yearly instalments of 15 per cent. out of the revenue of the go ld mines in which he is engaged. Hi s total debts had been ascertained to amor.int to . 422,5001. The rate of exchange at St. Petersburgh. still continues unfavour able for England, in consequence ot the heavy shipments of produce. A COMPULSORY VorAGE.—A Spanish fisherman named Soares, left 13arcelona on the 18th ult., in a boat, with the intention of proceeding to Villa N i euva, a distance of a few miles. As he p ro p osed to return n the evening, took with him a bottle of rum, some wine, and a loaf. the violence of the wind and waves carried him out to sea, and, having been buffeted bout for twelve days, he Mil' ed on the 30th in the port of Algiers.
