PUGILISM.—COOK AND BATCHELOR, FOR 20/ Yesterday this fight came off on Woking-common.. Cook, the younger man, bad many physical advantage's —taller, with weight, but, as it appeared in the close: s and struggles, with less skill and quickness than his ad— versary. At half-past twelve the men appeared in trim,. Alec Keene and Simbo attending upon Cook, while the Batchelur was seen home to his corner by Jce Rowe and, his brother. A fight it is not our practice to describe; the event we suppose sufficient for the reader. Batchelor forced the fighting, got the first event, in the first round; lost the second by being knocked down in the second; and thenceforward, after many changes, Batchelor fight ing in the old Mendez' style, on both hands up; and Cook practising on him by the modern left-ha n d e d p ro p, so had him, occasionally getting his right on his ear, and that not seldom or lightly, that at the close of the 38:h round, and 59 minutes by the clock, Batchelor's seconds very properly through up the sponge. 4crellter 14,1549, N°..17,846.] LONDON, WEDNESDAY E G • - -r; 7 DECEMBER 5, 1849. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. The Eurydice, 26, Captain Anson, landed a small freight that she brought from the Mauritius yester day afternoon ; it is in value about 10,0001., and con sists of 80,000 tokens. Messrs. Emanuel have re ceived orders from the Colonial-office to convey it to London, and it will be deliverel by them at the co lonial department this morning. It was late when the Eurydice got to her moorings on Monday evening. By some unaccountable accident last evening the shackle got loose from the moorings and the ship went adrift—her sails were loose to dry, a gun-lighter being on one side, and a store-lighter on the other; however an ar.clior was quickly got retldy and let go, and no other damage was done than .tho haw:prit ut a vessel running through the Eury,:ice's waist hammock nettings, and a poor seaman being hurt in one of his legs. She has unbent sails, and is preparing for pay ing off with all dispatch. She is a very handsome little vessel, appears to be in excellent order, and we bear sails remarkably well, especially on a wind. op The o,o l u ig g h h t t draught o b f ee ti s t t e a r te o d f the forward,Tig .9 feet ste 61 a m inches; aft, 8 feet 6 inches. The Iris, 26, was taken into dock at Chatham, on 'Monday, to make good defects, and be brought for ward for commission. The Bloodhound's (iron steam vessel) bottom having been finished by Mr. Hay, she was taken out of dock at Portsmouth last evening, and the Fire Queen was taken in. Thirty-six labourers have been entered for the pus•. pose of carrying on the survey at Chatham Dock yard, ordered by the Admiralty. PORTSMOUTH, TUESDAY.—The flag of Admiral the lion. Sir Bladen Capol, K.C.8., the commander in• chief at this port, was this morning transferred from the main of her Majesty's ship Victory to that of her Majesty's ship Excellent, where it will re main, half-mast, during the period which will elapse before the funeral of the Queen Dowager takes place, in pursuance of Admiralty order this day promulgated, which also decreed the royal standard should be hoisted half-mast on board the Victory (in place of the Port-Admiral's flag) ; that the ensigns, union jacks, and pennants of all her Majesty's ships and vessels at this port should also be hoisted half-mast high; and that the royal standard and colours of such (her Majesty's) ships shall continue thus hoisted until the day of her Majesty's funeral, on which day each ship will fire 30 minute guns. This order was put into effect this morning, not even the royal yachts altering the disposition of their ensigns, &c., until the order was, published, whereas, in the military depart ment, all the flags on the various forts and bastions and other military establishments were hoisted half mast yesterday. Another expedition to search for Sir John Franklin having been for some days talked about as in con templation by the Government, the opinion most pre valent in naval circles in this port is decidedly against any further waste of money and sacrifice of life and comfort in such an adventure, which, it is believed, will yield nothing but repeated disappointment. If another expedition is fitted out, however, it is hoped Rear -Admiral Beaufort (the Admiralty hydrographer, who is reported to be at the head of the hew expedi tion movement) will be commissioned to take the command of it.

Clark, Mr. Greases, and Messrs. Watts and Maclaren, who had charge of the pontoons and capstans, amid the cheers of the surrounding multitudes who thronged the towers and adjacent heights. The operation of floating had been commenced by carefully closing tepelreleased natnedr sro with wpe with from a i it, and , et thoseo i n t h e all the valves i n th e pontoons at low water, wh i ch enabled the po n t oons t o fl oat as t h e t i le rose, and as they rose buoyantly thahur lifthand, t gr li er e es ta t rtt u ahi b ein e lnot from laidoz ,) m n tz off lustily roadway, the stone piers on whi c h it s extremities rested. A crowd t o of c com menced its movement upon the waters. It was at this juncture that all the capstans, cable, stoppers, hauling lines, and hawstrs came into active opera tion for the accomplishment of tho c:itical opera tion of floating the great mass, broadside and at first in a slanting direction. The tackle having be€n brought to bear on its buoyant burden ; and dragged it oat about 150 yards into the stream, with its end to the space between the towers. the next grand movement consi6ted in what is termed " slewing" it round, so has to cause it to face the span between the piers. At this period a considerable pause took place, the better to prepare all hands for the arduousness of the operation. Suddenly the command was given to " heave all," and amid the clang and revolution of capstans the mass again moved on, until it was within a few yards of its destination. After a few more vigorous heaves the Carnarvon end of the tube glided to its appointed spot, and in a few minutes after the Anglesea end slowly slided into its position, amid the roaring of cannon through the ra vines of the Straits, the waving of flags, and loud and long acclamations - from the multitude. Not. the sligbtest drawback in the shape of accident occurred. Owing to th4 . l sudden turn of the tide at a few minutes past 12, by which time the operation was finally completed,`and, indeed, only just in time to render its completion • practicable, the pontoons under the tuba bad, with the numerous sailors on board, to beat a. precipitate retreat, and on their leaving a clear space of some eight or ten feet was left between the tube and the tide. The entire operation, as timed, occupied about an hour ; the floating of the former tube an hour and a half, having a greater distance to travel over in its transit, and the appliances not being so perfect. It will be fully three weeks before the tube is lifted, the masonry having to be filled in, and it is thought the successful process of floating may have the effect of causing the highway to be completed by February—a month earlier than was expected. Not less than 2,500,000 of cubic feet of masonry had been constructed, though only three years had elapsed since laying the first stone. The work had gone quietly on with such perseverance that three cubic feet had been accomplished per minute :since the commence ment, allowing twelve working hours to the day and six working days in the week. The great strength and rigidity of the tube to resist strain and tension consist in its system of bee-hive cells. The cellular top of the tube, in which its great strength lies, is divided into eight compartments, and the top and bottom platforms forming these cells are composed of iron plates six feet long, and one foot nine inches wide throughout, 12-16ths of an inch thick in the middle, and increasing in thickness at the extremities, where they are 14 16ths of an inch thick. The vertical plates at the sides are of the same thickness. They are all bound, jointed, and rivetted together, as it were into one laminated mass. The angle-irons of the corner of the cells, which materially assist in the resistance offered to compression, are strongly jointed, the rivets being one inch in diameter. The method by which the bottom of the tube floated yesterday is put together is different from the top, the bottom being that especial part of the tube that will be solely subjected to a tensile or tearing strain, the great uniformity ironthiety of strength, arrangement ad h of the n plates hbas been eingto secure securely effected by Mr. Stephenson and Mr. Fair bairn, by means of composing the whole of the bottom of the tube of an infinite number of small pieces joined together, and a system of chain rivetting is adopted which distributes strength over all parts of the structure. The sides of the tube forming the medium of communication with the top and bottom are constructed of sim;lar iron plates rivetted together, so as to insure the requisites of rigidity, tenacity, and lightness. The top and bottom sides were at first intended to be parallel, but were altered to give a rise of seven feet on the centre pier, and so as to taper off, with a slight curvature, from a fiepth of thirty feet in the middle to a depth of twenty-three feet at each end. Should the first line of tubs be completed by March of 1050 the works will the❑ have been nearly four 3 ears in progress. Telford's Menai Suspension bridge was uight years in bui:ding; the weight of its iron -work, compared with that of the Britannia bridge, being as 644 to 10,000 tons, or in the ratio of one to 15. EBENEZER lim.ro•r.—This remarkable roan and original poet, whose death was announced in The Sun of Monday evening, was born the 17th of March, 1781, being one of eight children. his father was a clerk in the iron-works at Masborough, near Rotherham, with a salary cf 70/. a-year. Of his early life little is known; the anecdotes which friendship has gathered from hii con versation represent him as uniting great poetic sensibility with much practical inaptitude. On leaving school at an early age, and discovering great proficiency in arith metical attainment, he was placed by his father to work is the foundry, and it is recorded that a sense of his shortcomings often caused him to weep as, comirg dirty f.om his work, he saw the invoices or drawings of his brother Giles. Mr. Elliot commenced life as a working man; he came to Sheffield under peculiar circumstances, and some hundred and fifty pounds worse than nothing. After much exertion and endurance ho was favoured by fortune, and he was wont to relate how, sitting in his ohair, he for a time made his twenty pounds a-day, with out even seeing the goods that he sold. The tern-laws spoiled all that, and made him glad to get out of the business of a bar-iron merchant with part of his earnings, the great panic of 1837 having swept away some three or four thousands at once. Ilis first place of business was in Burgess-street; the house is pointed out at the right-hand corner as you go up. Removing hence, when business had increased, he estab lished his warehouse in Gibraltar-street, Shalesmoo!. Shortly after he built a handsome villa in the ,nburb of Upper Thorpe, whence he could behold Sheffield smok ing at his feet. The counting-house where Ebenezer Elliot made fame as well as fortune, was strangely fur nished—iron bars jostling Ajax and Achilles, for ihe classic poets were great favourites with our rhymer, although he could enjoy them only through the medium of a translation. Elliot has been called the Burns of the manufacturing city. His honest-natured heart :aw with indignation Monopoly rob Labour of its wages, and convert plenty into famine. He attacked the bread tax most manfully. He sent out, right and left, "songs, sarcasms, curses, and battle- cries," among the people. To his alarm " Up ! broad-taxed slave," England c( ased not to respond till the corn-laws were extinguished. Sickness for six months visited him at intervals with in ereasit g severity, but his habitual serenity never once forsook him; indeed, this was a period of great mental activity. On Saturday, the Ist inst., he drew his last breath at Argilt-hill, near Barnsley. Of five sons, two conduct the steel business of their father, and two are clergymen of the Church of England. He has also left a widow and two daughters.—Daily .News. EXTRAORDINARY AFFAIR IN KIiNSAL-GREEN ilETEßY.—Yesterday afternoon an extraordinary scene took place in Kensal-green Cemetery, and which has created some considerable interest and surprise, in con sequence of the body of a gentleman having been ex humed, in pursuance of a warrant issued by Mr. M. H. Wakley, the Deputy Coroner for Middlesex, without the presence of a jury. The deceased was a gentleman of property, residing in Hyde-park-square, and shortly before his death, which took place in Scotland, made a will, leaving the bulk of his property to a gentleman with whom he was residing at the time of his decease. It being known, however, that he had made a will in England, inquiries were made, when it was stated that the English will had been placed iu the coffin with the corpse, and hence it was deemed desirable to disinter the body, an additional reason being, that it was said no medical man had been called in during his last illness. The coffin and the body underwent a very rigid exami nation, but no will could be discovered. The body of the deceased appeared not to have been wasted, and there were still soma plaisters adhering to the chest. No will having been found, the Coroner said it would ba necessary to have a post-mortem examination of the body, and the contents of the stomach were remov , d and placed iu a jar, for the purpose of being analysed. The Coroner directed that Mr. Garrett should perform the analysis, and that the body should not be again In- . terred until a jury had seen the b , dy. The remains of the deceased were then properly secured , and the jar and its contents were taken away by Mr. Garrett, who was directed to report to the Coroner the result of the ana • sis, as soon as possible. All the parties then left the cemetery. THE PRINTERS' PENSION SOCIETY.--Yesterday evening n general meeting of the members and seb scribers of the above association, founded in December, 1827, for the relief of aged and infirm printers and their widows, was held at the London Tavern, 11. Flay, EF q,, in the chair, for the transaction of general business. The report read was highly satisfactory. There are now 55 pensouers on the funds. Notwithstanding there had been a decrease of income during the past year, from various causes, the benefits of the society have not been curtailed, but, on the contrary, an increase had been paid to the pensioners. The funded property, at the date of the last audit, amounted to upwards of 5,3001, whica produces the scciety about 2001. per annum. The amount paid to male and female pensioners during the past year was 528/. 17s. The report concluded with au energetic appeal to the public for support. ----, LABOURINSES. TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CLIRONICLE. Sir,—The public have read with painful interest _ able reports of your correspondents on the state of the labouring classes in England. That these disclosures of the sufferings of the poor have excited a genera l an d a s i ncere sympathy is proved by th e many an d lib eral contributions which are daily forwarded to your office for the relief of the most suffering of these classes—namely, the needle women. I rejoice at this evidence of a Christian spirit. It emboldens me to lay shortly before your readers some suggestions which I trust they may think not unworthy of their consideration. Let me begin, then, with the class which has an indisputable right to priority—the needle-workers. Theirs is the most helpless s:..x—the most intense poverty—the most fearful degradation. Make every allowance for the natural exaggeration of sufferers relating to their own wrongs, and for , be involuntary exaggeration of a benevolent man listen ing wiqt horror to the detail of such st,tf•rings—btrip your Correspondent's letters of all but the bare re cital of facts—omit all his description of the sufferers themselves—forget, if possible, their own shame stricken at:d d , -spairing recitals—and what a picture is left! 33,500 women engaged in this one trade, of . whom 28,500 are under 20 years of age, and of these a large portion living, or attempting to live, on awns varying from 4id to 2id. a day ! I rejoice that the ready sympathy of your readng has sent alms to these poor creatures ; that is, to those few out of the 33,500 who had the fortune to come under the observation of your Correspondent. There will be a week's food f or t h e c hild ren o f one ; there will be clothes got out of pawn for another ; till, in a few weeks, the alms will be exhausted— the subject, by all but a few, forgotten—and the same dreary monotony of starvation will again be their lot. Cannot these alms be so applied that permanent good may be effected ? Instead of palliating the symptoms might we not trace the causes of the malady, and make a vigorous attempt to repress or diminish them ? Let us see what these causes are. " The cause," says every one, " is the mania for cheap goods, which drives down profits and wages to the starvation point." But a mania for cheapness would not, in itself, enable the purchaser to get goods cheap, unless other equses operated to their cheap production. The will of the purchaser has, in fact, much less to do with the matter than the position of the salesman and the Druiucer. 'Every c4italist--by which I mean every man em • barking his money in any trade or calling, with a view to get his living—is trying to attract custom to himself by underselling his neighbour. Every labourer—i e., every man, woman, and child working for wages—is trying to secure employment by accepting lower wages than his neighbour; and every purchaser, as a matter of course, prefers the cheatest article. Tile truth is, our wealth and our population have both outgrown the narrow area of our country. We want more room. We have too much capital and too many people —more capital than we can em ploy with profit —more people than we can maintain in comfort. All your reports tell the same tile in a greater or less degree. In the mine, in the field, i© the factory —everywhere a fierce competition between money and money—between man and man. This does not apply to all trades in the same de gree. In some, either wages have not fallen, in which case the labourer has gained an income, as the same money wages will now command far more of the necessaries and comforts of life than formerly ; or else, they have not fallen in a greater proportion than the prices of the necessaries he purchases, in which case he stands just where he did. But in no trade does the competition of labour with labour exist to the same extent as in all kinds of apparel-making; and for this reason—the labour is principally done by women. But the number of women in Great Britain greatly exceeds the number of men. In 1821, the females out numbered the males, in round-numbers, by 117,000 ; in 1831, by 0 13,000; in 1841, by 320,000 ; and at this moment, so great has been the male emigration in the last nine years, that there cannot be less than half a million more females than males in Great Britain. Now, women have far fewer trades in which they can engage than men. Their choice is very limited, and as their field of employment is narrower, so is it, proportionably, far more crowded. This needle• working, which is one of the largest; is the most overcrowded of all trades ; iu none, consequently, has the reduction in the price of labour and the cost of the article produced been so great. Theirs, then, is the case in which the Causes I have pointed out are in most active operation, and the effects produced the most baneful. What then is to be done for their relief ? I hear many say—" This system of cheapness or competition must be put an n. - id to." But how ? By whom ? By the Govern ment ? Now, what is meant by this ? Does it mean that laws shall be made to regulate the retail prices ?revery article sold in every shop, street, and alley, in every town and village in England ? Let us suppose that this, if it were possible, would secure a certain profit more or less to the vendor; but, fur the producer, there niuq be, further, a law regulating th e amount of wages ' for every labeuring man, woman, and child. Due regard, of course, must ba had, not only to the different prices of the necessaries of life in dif ferent districts, but also to the varying skill, strength, :aid application of each individual person. This scheme is, of course, too absurd to be enter tained seriously by any one. But I see that it has been seriously proposed to remedy the evil by for bidding schools under heavy penalties to take in needlework beyond what is necessary for the purpose of instruction. On what principle are we to forbid any one from working or earning what they can, especially children, whose education often depends on the maintenance of their school by this very needlework ? Are we, then, to persuade people, as a matter of duty, to give more for a thing than they can get it for—the tradesman to pay for labour, the consumer for his goods, mure than the market price ? Is all bargain to become a matter of charity ? No; social evils are neither to be cured by Act of Parliament, nor by attempting to contravene the laws of nature. What, then, is to be done ? . . That this plethora of capital and population must hare room found for them elsewhere is no new doctrine, nor do many now dispute it. But I have shown that there are peculiar circum stances affecting the female labour market which entitle it to a priority of relief. Leave this crowd of women here and they will destroy one another—more and more poverty, more and more infamy—body alai soul both destroyed. Why not give them the means of escape ? In the southern hemisphere is a vast continent, which is as much a part of the British empire as Wales. It has been peopled partly by forced partly by voluntary emigration. In the first case the disproportion of the sexes (the reverse of course of that which we see in England) is enormous. Philanthropists have been shocked at the results upon society th ire. But even in the case of voluntary emigration the greater hardihood and spirit of adven ture of the male sex have naturally brought out a greater number of male emigrants. In 1847 there were in South Australia only 13,622 females to 17,531 males, including children ; the disproportion among adults being, of course, greater. In New South Wales, in 1847, of the adult population 83,572 were males, and only 41,809 were females. In Van Die men's Land the same disproportion exists. A redress of this inequality is the crying want of society there; just as the redress of the opposite inequality in this country is the necessity here. Any woman so emigrating is a woman saved; and further, if any numbers go out, the status of the re mainder is bettered. The competition is diminished, and wages pro tanto improved. The cost of a passage of an adult to Australiais 151. ; wonderfully little when the length of the voyage and the comforts provided are considered, but vc ry large when we have to deal with the remoralof numbers. But let us suppose that we only deal with a few. The sums sent through your office for the relief of the needle•workers must now amount to some hun dreds of pounds. These sums have been directed to be employed for the benefit of particular individuals, whose cases seemed to your readers to be especially distressing. But these alms must at last he ex- , hausted, and when exhausted, if the recipient has not been altogether removed from the trade, she will be in no way benefited. On the contrary, she will return to her privations with a keener sense of their intensity from the contrast she has known ; whereas, the same sum which has thus been almost wasted, in enabling her to continue in a trade which can bring her nothing but suffering and temptation, would, if applied to her emigration, have enabled her to escape from it. But I do not intend that we should deal with a few only. I propose that we should offer to those who still have health and years before them, and above all, who still have character, the means 4 escape from a country where their only possible calling brings them ruin, to a land which offers them the prospect of a home where they may dwell in comfort and honour. The emigration of a few is a certain and positive benefit to those few ; but unless we enable large numbers to go we can effect no sensible or perma nent improvement in the situation of those who remain. What we do must be done on a large scale. For this a vast fund will be required ; but I have no doubt that in this country, abounding in wealth, abounding also, I trust, in a self denying and Christian spirit, such a fund can and will be raised. Neither will machinery be wanting. The clergy PROMOTION. Mate—Angus Campbell (1848), to be Lieutenant. The Phaeton, 50-gun frigate, commissioned to-day at Chatham by Captain George Elliot, flag officer to Vice-Admiral the Hon. George Elliot, C.B. Corn mander-in• Chief at the Nore, was built at Deptford Dockyard from a design by Mr. White, of Cowes. The Contest, 12 gun sloop, commissioned to-day at Portsmouth by Commander the Hon. J. W. S. Spencer, was last employed on service on the coast of Africa. Captain J. B. Maxwell (1837), Captain T. P. Thompson (1847), Captain H. J. Matson (1849), Commander J. A. St. Leger (1848), and Commander E. NV. Vansittart (1849), appointed to study steam, have all joined at the factory in Woolwich Dockyard to-day. The Megtera, steam-frigat', sister vessel to the Vulcan, and fitted with engines of3so•horse power by Messrs. George and Sir John Rennie, was towed from the East India Docks yesterday to Woolwich, by the Jasper steam-vessel. The Advice steam-vessel proceeded yesterday morning to Sheerness with Lieutenant Robert son and a number of stokers of Captain Austin's department, for the purpose of taking the Amphion, 30, seam frigate, for a trial cruise in the North Sea. The whole of the officers, petty officers and crews of the Fisgard and Terrible steam-frigates, the Black Eagle, the Lightning, and other vessels at present at Woolwich, came on shore, with tha Royal Marine artillery from the Terrible, and mustered in the dockyard at twelve o'clock, and proceeded at 12.30 to the Royal Marine barracks, where the body of the late gallant and respected Commander James Wolfe, bad been conveyed on the previous day from his resi dence in Wood-street, that it might be interred with the honours due to his rank in the royal navy. THE BRITANNIA BRIDGE. MENAI STRA ITS.—TUESDAY APT ERNOON. — Every precaution having been taken against a recurrence of the contingency of yesterday, the transport of the huge mass of tube, 472 feet long and 2,000 tons in weight, was successfully effected to•day. During the entire night large beacon fires were blazing on the various platforms and on the shores cf the Straits, to assist the workmen in Hatching and adjusting the great network of floating apparatus. It is almost im possible, without actually being present, to realize an adequate conception of the difficulty and hazsrd of the operation, and of the iliad of implied contingency in volved in the safe launching, over a rapid tideway, of a mass of material of such immense bulk. No clue had been discovered to the suspected cut ting of the tackle yesterday, and it is asserted by the Liverpool seamen to have been occasioned by the keel of a large vessel from Carnarvon passing over the cable on Saturday, the keel in question being cased with iron, and consequently liable to cut. From daylight until the hour at which operations commenced crowds of people continued to wend their way towards the works on either side of the Straits, while upon their surface sailing and other boats found it difficult, and, at many points, dangerous, owing to the rocks and the rapids, to make headway through the channel against a strong gale. The pontoons and tackle that were to play the all important part in the great process were minutely , examined at an early hour by Mr. Stephenson, Cap tain Claxton, and Mr. Clark, to ascertain that the stay-braces, keelsons, bulkheads, tie-bars, caulkings, and pumps, were all right. There were eight of them ready to do duty, and take the 2,000 tons load upon their backs, and bear it down the stream, six of them of wood, and two of iron, their maximum floatage power being 3,200 tons, each capable of sus taining 400 tons, and containing 19,000 cubic feet of water, and of displacing a like volume when sub merged. Such is the amazing buoyancy of these vessels that it is thought four of them would have been sufficient to float the superimposed mass, but the surplusage of disposable power was to enable those who had the floating of the tube to adapt their arrange ments the more readily to the state of wind, and wave, and weather. The displacement power of the pontoons was equal to 2,400 tons. The subsidiary or control ling tackle, in the shape of cables and hawsers, were extended over the Straits, and were two miles in length, Lind 4 inches in diameter, attached to the different capstans and on board the pontoons, where the strain en them was enormous. These hawsers, worked by the capstans, and by means of which, as it were in leading strings, the tube was guided, reached from the pontoons to the Anglesea shore, kept afloat on the surface of the stream by innumerable barrel buoys, and by means of which the motion of the iron mass, governed by the play of the capstans, was accelerated or retarded at the will of the engineers. Each pontoon is 100 feet long, 25 feet wide, and 11 feet deep. The two iron ones are of wrought iron ' closely riveted together.. There are large valves in the bottom of each pontoon, which are kept constantly open, and in this state the tide has entered them and left them daily without producing any buoyant effect. A complete dock has been cut out of the line of beach, which consists of schistus or slate-rock, directly under the tube, so as to admit of the entrance of the pontoons. The provision in the pontoons of valves allowed the water to be ad • mitted for sinking them the moment that the tube touched the shelves. The depths of their sides and flat bottoms gave them all the requisite buoyancy, i with a comparatively small draught of water. By capstans fitted on their decks, acting in contact with - those on shore, the haulage of the tube was effected. - Precisely at eleven o'clock, during a momentary i snow-storm, but which in a few minutes was succeeded by bright and brilliant sunshine, Mr. Stephenson, Captain Claxton, Mr Edwin Clark, Mr. Brunel, Mr. _Bidder, and Mr. Wild scaled the ladders that lEd to the top of the stupendous tube, and gave the note of
