Imre Eleven to One THE PAGANISM OF ROME—with all its monstrous errors and superstitions, even to the human sacrifice, with the faint shadow of morality which it inculcated, formed the cement and support of the political fabric; and the philsophy of Epicurus and his followers, by denying the superintendence of a Supreme Being, struck at the root of all social and political morality, thus undermining the ancient institutions of the Government, and paving the way for an iron and blood thirsty despostism. The gross fables and puerile mythology with which mankind had been so long deluded could not resist the assaults of sensual infidelity. The last was soon enabled to dissipate the shadows that had so long enveloped the human intellect, and to burst the bonds of a superstition, whose head was hidden in the clouds, and whose foot was on the neck of nations. But, in stead of bur:mating a purer system of morals f o r that whit!-, had been abolished, and erecting an altar to Truth amid the broken shrines of the divinities it had dottaroned, in the pride of its heart, sensual philosophy exalted its own form for the adoration of mankind, and by removing ell the sanctions of religion—by corrupting the motives and inducements to virtue—by stifling all the aspirations of the heart, yearning and restlessly striving for a higher and purer existence—it unbridled the wildest excesses of passion; if *eoalled the divine principle from its heavenward flight, and bade it seek in pandering to the grossest sensuality the proper end and objset of its being. The result was inevitable. Crime on a gigantic scale ensued. Rome grow drunk with blood. Men looked with horror upon the present, and to the future with despair. One universal night of gloom brooded over her empire, and it seemed as if the impious dogma of the philosopher had been realiVed, and that the Deity had abandoned man to his fate. The religi ous sentiment of Turkey, misled and faint as it is, is the best protection it possesses against such debaucheries as the Saturnalia of Rome, or the utter debasements of the Parisian worship of the Goddess of Reason.—Lynch's Expedition to the Dead Sea. NEW CORE FOR CLIOLERA.—A correspondent of the National, resident at Muret, communicates to his friend the editor of that paper the following cure for cholera morbus:—" Father Joseph Itizolstti, Vicar A pos tolie of Hou-Kouang, wrote on the 25th of November, 1842, to the General of the Franciscans of Alexandria, a letter filled with details of the manners and customs of the Chinese, in which the following passage occurs : " Among other attacks on my health, I have had the mholera morhus, and I should have been a dead man in 24 hours had not the malady been invade in time by a good physician. The ordinary and most convenient treatment is this,—the tongue of the patient is punc tured in innumerable places with the point of a table knife, or a crystal blade, so as to provoke an abun dant effusion of blood. Then, whilst some of the at tendants stretch the principal n-rves by main force, others give the pltient s , ?vere blows on the ehe , t, the hick. the thighs , fr.:o the of gush forth. When the crisis is uver the patient rceovtri, at the cost of numerous scars end bruises and a skirt as black as that of a negro.'" EXCURSION ON BOARD THE IHNDOSTAN. Saturday last being the day appointed by the Govern ment officers tun the inspection and survey of the Perin solar and ()dental Steam Navigation Company's large frigate steamer Hindostan, and a short trip under steam haying been deemed necessary for that purpose, the di rectors embraced the opportunity thus afforded to exhibit her to their friends, and therefore invited a large com pany from all parts of the country to join them at South ampton on the occasion. For the convenience of those proceeding from London, the chairman and directors of the South- Western Rail way placed at the disposal of the company a .special train, which het the Waterloo•bridge station at 9 35, and arrived at the Southampton docks at half past 11. and here the company embarked in the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Madrid for another vessel, and proceeded to the Hindostan, lying in Southampton roads. At and about the docks everything bespoke a general holyday. The fleet of steamers were gaily dressed with colours, and, their officers were attired in their best uniforms, and as the Madrid steamed out to the iliedostan the Euxine, at her moorings, also dressed out in colours and manned her yards. The Hindostan was also gaily decorated with flags of all colours, and fired salutes as the Madrid approached, and when the directors and their friends arrived alongside she also manned her yards. All the company having arrived, the order was soon given to slip the moorings, and at one o'clock precisely the noble and stately ship swain , round and started down the Southampton water towards Spithead, gather ing fresh speed at every revolution of her stupendous wheels, the numerous company that had crowded the . two steamers which conveyed the party from Southamp ton appearing upon her spacious decks a comparatively small freight. The fineness of the day, the bracing breeze, and the sparkling sea were great auxiliaries to enjoyment; but, when to these are added the wide field of interest which the inspection of the ship presented, it was impossible for the most fastidious and inanimate to withstand the influences of so exhilarating a position. It was not, therefore, at all surprising to find the ship in Stokes Bay. and the Government officer, Mr. Rigby, accurately taking and recording the speed of the ship at the measured nautical mile, before ail the points of interest in the vessel herself had been discovered, and the superb fittings of the state cabins, and the magnificent decorations of the saloon, had been sufficiently admired. If there were any astonishment, it was to be found in the well•ascertained fact that the Hindostan had been steaming at the rate of 144 statute miles an hour, for she ran the measured nautical mile in Stokes Bay in 4 minutes 50 seconds. Spiihead, however, soon attracted the attention of the company, as the Hindostan swept across and rounded her Majesty's ship Superb, 80 guns, Captain Purcell. Hitherto the Hindustan had been steaming with the tide; a lads diwinudon in her rate of progress as she met the ebb gave an opportunity for a to ak into Portsmouth Harbour—a passing glance at a couple of fine first-class merchantmen at anchor, and the interesting scenery with which this locality abounds. In a few minutes the Hin dustan had again arrived at the measured mile, when she ran the distance in 5 minutes 37 seconds, giving her a rate of; 10.682 knots, or 124 statute miles an hour, thereby making her average rate of steaming no less than 11 knots, or rho excellent speed of 134 statute wiles. rho good ship continued at this rapid speed to wards Osborne-hoxse and Cowes, when the time for re freshment baying arrived, the agreeable summons was duly given, but inasmuch that it was impossible that the saloon could contain the numerous guests on board, two tables were ranged along the quarter-deck for the re mainder, when, among the 250, who partook of perhaps the most elegant and sumptuous collation that was ever served afloat, we may enumerate the following:—Earl C. 8., the Earl of Mot ley, the Count and Countess lleventlow and Countess Hilda de Reventlow, Mr. An derson, M.P.

After the usual loyal toasts had been drunk, The CHAIRMAN coupled with the toast of " The Army and Navy" " The Health cf Admiral Sir Charles Napier." tAre need Ecarcely say that the toast was enthusiasti cally received, and the reply of the gallant Admiral was anxiously anticipated. _ Sir CHARLES, in acknowledging the compliment, praiAd the qualities of the good ship Hindostan, and said, should necessity call forth her services for the pur poses of war, she would, no doubt, be a most useful vessel to bo brought into her Majesty's navy. He had not had the opportunity of examining the Hindostan himself, but taking it for granted that everything he had heard of the capabilities of the ship was correct, he hoped he should meet with many more so well adapted for the purposes required; and looking to the steam navy of Great Britain—he:meant her Majesty's navy—he dared to say that many of our steamers were very much inferior as war vessels to a great number built by the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company. He would observe the example of the chairman, and make a short , auuDtless, they were more anxious to look at the Needles than to hear him (Sir. C. Napier) talk.—(Cheers.) The company in the saloon took the hint, and rose with the gallant Admiral, and proceeded on deck to en joy the delightful scenery, which the Hindostan rapidly passed as she proceeded on her course. In a very short time, rendered still shorter by the attention which the succession of new beauties of the island opening at every moment absorbed, the well.known Needle rocks ap peared, and the Hindostan steamed up to abreast of them, when, after affording every one on board ample opportunity of marking the extent of these well-known seamarks, the head of the good s hip was aga i n t urne d towards Southampton, and as she steamed along the chair was resumed in the saloon, and Mr. Matheson pro ceeded with the toasts. The Hon. CHAIRMAN proposed " The Health of Count Reyentlow and the Foreign Ambassadors at the Court of St. James's, by whose liberal and enlightened minis trations the most amicable relations were established and maintained." His EXCELLENCY returned thanks. The CHAIRMAN then gave " The House of Peers and the Earl of Talbot"—a toast which needed no commen dation, for in reference to that august body one sentiment had been fixed by all classes, "Thank God we have a House of Lords."—(Cheers.) Earl TALBOT, in reply, said, whatever difference in opinion might arise, the House of Peers, he was quite sure, would always deserve the credit of conscientiotbly doing its duty towards the Sovereign and the country. —(Cheers.) His Lordship then called on the assembly to drink a bumper toast to "The Health and Prosperity of the Chairman and Directors of the Peninsultir and Oriental Company." The toast havini , been received with loud acclamations, he said it would have been most ungrateful if they had not dune justice to the most literal and national company in existence, on board of whose magnificent vessel they had that afternoon enjoyed so splendid an entertainment.—(Cheers.) The Hon. CHAIRMAN said he had been very recently connected with the company, and therefure could, per haps, with more disinterestedness bear testimony to the merits of those gentlemen who had the credit of raising the company to the distinguished position it now occu pies. To obtain what they desired—the approbation of such an assembly as the present and the appreciation of the public at large—no directors of a company had ever worked so hard or exerted themselves so much.— . _ (Hear.) It was only just to the rnanaging directors to say ;.hat they had U) sineento in atts riding to thn interest. a e JriC2lol, and it required no ortii , otty • u::(1 work the company so successfully as they had done.—(Loud cheers.) He felt quite assured that without the inces sant exercise of those qualities conspicuously manifested by the managing directors the company would have • not , attained that proud position it now holds in the public estimation.--(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then said, as they had received equal favour in the company of several members of the House of Commons, the defenders and authors of the liberties of our country, and the arena in which so many of its members have learned to distinguish and qualify them selves for the Peerage, he begged to give as the next toast, " The House of Commons," and to connect with it the name or a gentleman who had acquired celebrity not only in political circles, but in the fislds of literature —" Mr. Monekton Milnes."—(Cheers ) • Mr. MILNES, in reply;taid, having once been on board the St. Vincent, he haerlearnt to obey orders; and there fore, in the namo of the House of Commons, be had great pleasure in returning thanks for the honour done to that branch of the Legislature. He was sure that the debate that had taken place that day would he most advantageous to the country—(Laughter)—whilst the division that would take place that night would cause very great regret to many (Great laughter) but, he was quite certain they would all retire with the greatest respect for their excellent chairman.—(Loud cheers.) In the saloon of that ship there had pro bably been more exciting scenes than they had wit nessed. Only think of all the gay " griffins" and all the expectant brides that had gone out to India in her— (Laughter)—only think of the successful stathmen and hest India directors (like his friend on the right), and the few disappointed and liverless men that had come back in her.—(Laughter.) They had heard of walls that could speak, bat if those cabins could relate the tales of their late masters, they would probably listen to them with more interest, than to any speaker they bad ' heard that day.--(Laugater.) He was delighted te see in that vast and wonderful specimen of the pride of England, that which distinguished her beyond all other nations—a vessel not created by any public bidding or royal summons, but by the instinctive genius and energy of Englishmen.—(Cheers.) This it was that preserved our beloved country amidst the tumults of the world— (Loud cheers)—and from the fear and dread of inva• sion, notwithstanding the unhappy prognostications we sometimes hear—(Continuous cheers)—and which he was sure needed only to be mentioned to receive a most emphatic denial—(Loud cheers)—and which, perhaps, he would not have alluded to had he not, in coming down, perused an ar icle taken from a French news paper, on the state of the French and English navies, in which it was lamented that there was not in the Na tional Assembly such a patriotic representative as Admiral Napier, to show in what a miserable state the French navy was, and how utterly incompetent to stand against the steam force of England.—(Cheers.) He found in the Hindostan a confirmation of that statement, and it was gratifying to know that we could create as many more like her as might be required. He, therefore, in this pleasant excursion recognized not only the means of enjoyment, but also the pow r of England. Lord TennoT then proposed "The health of the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor," who formerly had the honour to belong to the same profession as his Lordship. After eulogising the Lord Mivor for his princely hospitality to all parties, he took occasion to remark that he fully concurred• in the just tribute that had been paid to pri vate enterprise, so characteristic of Englishmen, and it was most gratifying to him, as an officer of the navy, to see so magnificent a vessel as the Hindostan available in o ase of need for the purposes of war. Let us hope, con cluded his Lordship, that this vessel may continue to raise our character as she has hitherto done in her useful employment of disseminating the at is of peace; but, at the same time, let us feel confident that she is competent to maintain the honour of our flag whenever it may be assailed.—(Cheers.) The LORD MAYOR, in returning thanks, said he should be most ungrateful if he did not say a few words; and, with reference to his hospitality, he could assure them he had done no more than justice to the position in which ho had been placed by his fellow.citizens. He hoped he had done so irrespective of party, and that he had succeeded in his endeavours to bring around the citizens of London, as in ancient times, the high, noble, and wealthy of the land.—(Cheers.) As an old sailor, he felt at home in his native element, and it was no small pleasure to him to find that the city of London numbers among its community so noble and independent a body of men as the Peninsular and Oriental Company, and to see that his fellow-citizens took so great an interest in the mercantile glory of England. The CHAIRMAN next proposed " The East India Com pany and Sir James NV. Hogg." Sir J. W. Hocio acknowledged the toast. Mr. ANDERSON next gave " The health of Abbas Pasha, the present ruler of Egypt," and alluded to the great liberality the company had experienced at the hands of Mehemet Ali and Ibrahim Pasha in connecting the links of coalmuLication botween England and India. Mr. PAsquAra, as agent for his Highness and the Egyptian Government, returned thanks, and said he should feel it a pleasing duty communicate to his High ness the distinguished honour that had been paid to him on the present occasion. Sir. C. NAPIER then said the company had been honoured with the presence of Hafiz Bey, the COEUMO dure of the Egyptian frigate, Sharkie, a ship that had been navigated from Alexandria to have her screw steam machinery fitted by Miller and Ravenbin. It must be gratifying to every one present, and the public at large, that ships from all parts of the world came here to be perfected as steam men-of-war.—(Cheers.) He well knew the exertions of Mehemet Ali, when in sound health, to get up an Egyptian navy. He had been on board a great manyot his ships, and it was extraordinary to see what one man had done in the course of thirty or forty years ; he had produced no less than fourteen or fifteen ships, and he was not the less astonished, as a British officer, to see how well the Arabs went through their exercises. Whether they kept their fleet up now, or whether it was to the advantage of this country that they did so, he did not know, but the ship they had sent to this country was a wonderful production for them. An Hon. Friend of his—(Laughter)—in returning thanks for the House of Commons—(Laughter)—had made a epeech and had alluded to him in it.—(Laughter.) Nothing could have been more in bad taste than that speech in such a company as the present—(Laughter)— a speech much better adapted for the House of Commons than for a convivial and pleaFure party for the Needles. —(Laughter.) It was not his intention to reply to that speech, and the Hon. Gentleman might take for answer his letter to a " Mr. Scott Portland."—(Laughter.) lle begged to propose "The Health of Commodore Hafiz Bey."—(Cheers.) Mr. PASQUALI, as interpreter for Hafiz Bey, ex pressed the grateful thanks of the Commodore for the honour conferred upon him by so distinguished an officer as the British Admiral, and, in return, begged to pro pose " The Ladies of England."—(Cheers.) The CHAIRMAN then gave, " The health of Mr. Chap lin and the directors of the South-Western Railway," whose gratuitous contribution to their enjoyment that day in placing at their disposal the special train, merited the thanks of all present, and the special acknowledg• ments of the Peninsular and Oriental Company, wh ose interests they were always ready to promote.—(Cheers.) Mr. CHAPLIN responded in hearty terms to the well deserved compliment paid to the railway directors. " The health of the Mayor and Corporation of Southampton" followed, which being duly honoured, a special toast was devoted to " The healil of the Chairman." By this time (half past seven o'clock) the Hindostan had entered the dock amidst the loud cheers of hundreds of spectators, who had congregated there awaiting her return. A few minutes, notice was given for the special train, and in a couple of hours as agreeable a party as ever enjoyed an aquatic excursion were again in London, wish pleasing recollections of the Peninsular and Oriental Company and their magnificent _ hip the Hindostan. THE AGAPEMONE.—In connexion with this con. cern, we observe, at the last Bridgewater country court, a case that further illustrates the habits of the fraternity. It was this:—lsaac Thomas v. Thomas Starkey, Lewis Price, and Thomas Williams. An action for 201. Mr. James Trevor appeared on behalf of the plaintiff, and Mr. Rouse on behalf of the defendants. Mr. Trevor, in opening the case, said the defendants had been bred clergymen of the Church of England. Notwithstand ing they did not follow that profession, but lived at a place at Charlinch, which they called the " Agapemone"' or the " Abode of Love." The premises occupied by the defendants adjoin the turnpike road, and the plaintiff, who was a labourer, residing at Spaxton, on passing their premises, and bearing a noise inside, got upon the hedge upon the other side of the road, which was high enough tor him to see what was going . on. Plaintiff there saw forty men and women playing at " hockey;" upon their seeing the plaintiff about twenty of them rushed out in the road with their bandies in their hands, fell upon him and thrashed him within an inch of his life. The judge gave a verdict for plaintiff with eleven guineas as compensation.— Western Times. OLYMPIC Til EITEE. — CEREMONIAL OF LAYING THE FOUNDATION STONE. - -On Saturday the ceremony of laying the first stone of the new dramatic temple, in Wych.street, was performed before a large number of persons invited, including the proprietor, Mr. Cavill, the architect, and many others associated with music, thea tricals, and the fine arts. Mr. J. Cavill, son of the pro prietor, addressed the assembly, and gave a history of the theatre, from its being the residence of the Earl of Craven in the reign of Charles II , through the various phases of the eccentric equestrian, John P. Astley, Robert Elliston, Madame Vestris, George Wild, Bolton, and Spicer. Miss Men Cavill performed the usual cere menials with the silver trowel, and various toasts were drunk, after which the party retired. Mr. Spicer, the late lessee, has resigned all intention of continuing the direction of too theatre. Amongst the candidates who proposed themselves as tenants is Mr. Conquest, the lessee of the late Garrick Theatre, which was burnt down some years since. DUBLIN, FRIDAY.--DEPARTURE OF THE MOUNT.

THE BRIG CHARLES BARTLETT, OF LON. DON, RUN DOWN—ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY LIVES LOST. LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY. The North American mail steamer Europa, Cap tain Lott, arrived in the Mersey this morning, with advices from Boston to the 20th, and Halifax to the 22d ult. She made the run throughout in 10:3- days. The Cambria arrived at New York on the 15th, and the America at Boston on the 20th ult ; both from Liverpool. The Hermann sailed from New York for Southampton on the 20th. We regret to record a serious collision between the Europa, on her homeward voyage, and the brig Charles Bartlett, of London, which resulted in the latter being run down, and in the loss of 130 lives. We have received the following dotails : CAPTAIN WILLIAM BARTLETT'S STATEMENT OF THE LOSS OF THE AMERICAN BARQUE CHARLES BARTLETT, BY BEING RUN INTO, ON THE 27TH JUNE, IN LAT. 50 49, LON. 29 30, BY THE STEAMER EUROPA, CAPTAIN LOTT. The Charles Bartlett was a first-rate ship of 400 tons register. She left the Downs, from London, bound to New York, on the 14th June, with a general heavy cargo, of about 450 tons weight, and 162 passengers in the steerage, one cabin passenger, and fourteen souls of the crew. Had fine weather, with light easterly winds, up to the 19th. From that time to the 27th had S. V, and W. winds, and foggy weather. At noon it cleared up a little. Observed the let. 50 48 N., and estimated the long. at 29 W. ; all well on board, and everything looking prosperous. Soon after noon a dense fog set in, wind W. by S., ship heading to the N.W., close hauled, all sail set. At three o'clock ordered a good look-out fr. , tn the topgallant forecastle ; also directed the man at the wheel to look sharp to windward. At 330 P.M. being on the weather side of the poop deck, heard a rumbling to windward like distant thunder ; turned my ear windward and my eye to the horizon. The man at the wheel noticing that I was listening, looked to wind ward, and cried out, "Sail, ho." lat once saw what I supposed was a ship about one point forward of our beam, about 400 yards distant. I ordered the helm up, thinking if she did not discover us that we should have time to clear her before she come into con tact. All hands shouted at the same time to alarm the ship, and I ordered the bell to be rung, and called to the ship to " port her helm," as I saw that was the only chance of escape. There were nearly one hundred passengers on the d, ck at the time. All was of no use, for in one minute from the time we saw the ship she was upon us, going at the rate of twelve knots, striking us abreast of the after main shrouds. The crash and the terrible scene that ensued I am not adequate to describe. I was knocked to leeward with the man at the wheel. I recovered myself in a moment, shouting for every person to cling to the steamer as their only hope; I caught hold of a broken chain on the bow, and hauled myself up, shouting at the same time to the crew and passengers to follow. I had barely time to get on the steamer's bow, and while getting up, I noticed that her bow was into the ship within a foot of the after hatch, and that she was stove clear to the lee side, and that full twenty feet of her side was stove in. There must have been nearly fifty persons killed by the collision, and every exertion was made by Captain Lott, his officers, and crew, and the passengers on board the steamer. The boats were lowered as soon as possible. Unfortunately only about ten were saved by the boats, the balance, making thirty-three (more or less), saved themselves by hanging to the bow. The steamer lay by !he scene as long as there was any hope of saving any. Of the crew, Mr. Thomas Parker, of Charleston, S.C., aged twenty-two; George Parsons, of Portland, Maine, :aged eighteon; and William Rich, of Gravesend, Dig land, aged twenty-five, were lost. A list of the passen gers and crew saved will be found in the public prints. We were most hospitably entertained by the captain, officers, and passengers of the steamer. I will notice that all due exertion was used by Cap tain Lott, and officers and crew of the Europa, as well as all the passengers. I particularly observed one passen ger usin.; the most noble exertions. I saw him let him self overboard, and clench a man in his arms, and, find ing him dead, let him go. I next saw him on the bow of a boat, hauling a man from under water with a boat hook, who was afterwards restored to life on board. I afterwards found that person to be Captain 11.8. Forbes, of Boston. I cannot express myself as I feel for the noble and generous conduct of all on board in contribut ing to the wants of the surviving sufferers, and for the sympathy felt by all, particularly by the ladies.

The Governor-General was at his country seat. It was reported that he did not intend to revisit the city of Montreal. A strong guard was still kept at the Government House. Business was dull. It was reported that the board of naval officers to whom the Secretary of the Navy referred the proposition of fitting out an expedition in search of Sir John Franklin have re ported against the feasibility of the enterprise on various grounds—because the season is too far ad vanced to reach the west coast of the continent in tinge to prosecute the search according to the projected plan, and because the Government owns no vessels adapted to this peculiar description of service. The Crescent City arrived at New Orleans on the 11th ult. from Chagres, with nearly 1,000,000 dolls. in gold, and advices from San Francisco to the Ist of May. The mail steamer Tay sailed from Chagres on the 10th of May, with 100,000 dolls. in gold dust.

The intelligence last week from California, by the way of the Isthmus, and the receipt of considerable sums in gold dust, coming upon a market previously overstocked with unemployed capital, had the effect of carrying up the prices of United Sta'es Stocks and Treasury notes very high. Treasury notes bearing six per cent. interest, which were selling at the departure of the last steamer for 114 f, brought on Friday last 117 f; and although they have since receded somewhat after so great and sudden a rise, they were sold to-day at 116. In like manner United States Sixes of '67, which were at 114 f on Tuesday, brought on Friday 1161. To-day the quotations are not so high, but denote a very considerable rise since the preceding steamer.

The thirty-second anniversary festival of this excellent nstitution was celebrated at the London Tavern on Saturday evening, when about 100 gentlemen, friends and patrons of the charity, sat down to a sumptuous dinner. His Grace the Duke of Buccleugh was to have taken the chair, but was prevented by indisposition. Charles Forbes, Esq., one of the treasurers of the insti tution, in Highland costume, officiated as chairman in the Duke's absence, and very efficiently and gracefully dis charged the duties of the chair. The chairman, on his entrance into the room, was preceded by Mr. Angus M'liay, her Majesty's piper, the piper of the Highland Society of London, and the pipers of the juvenile band of the asylum, accompanied by the vice-presidents and stewards. During dinner, and at intervals afterwards, the juvenile band of the asylum, under Mr. Byford, and the juvenile pipers, under her Majesty's piper, played several spirit-stirring martial airs. !eliss Stewart, Miss Thornton, and Messrs. Kenny, Charles Cooper, and Farquharson Smith, sang several glees and songs at intervals during the evening, accompanied by Mr. G. F. Taylor on the grand piano. The Scottish airs sung by Miss Thornton were generally and especially admired, and loudly encored. On the removal of the cloth the usual loyal and con stitutional toasts were given from the chair, and duly responded to. ihe children maintained and educated at the asylum were then introduced into the room, preceded by the pipers, and their fine healthy appearance, and their joyous and intelligent faces, elicited the unqualified ad miration of the whole company. The CHAIRMAN, in proposing the toast of the evening, said, that was the first occasion that ho had had the honour of taking the chair at an anniversary dinner of this institution, in which he had felt always a deep and, ho hoped, a lasting interest.—(Applause.) Perhaps it might be expected that he should ~.ter at som e len g th into the circumstances of the Royal Caledonian Asylum; but he thought the readiest and best appeal to the as sembly would be to look around to those child ren ,— (Great applause.) In the toast which he had to give there was a special allusion to the girl,' school. The girl,' school, as most of them were aware, was a part of the institution that was established mainly by the kind ness of a gentleman whom he hoped to have seen pre sent that evening, but who had been prevent from attending—he meant M r . M at h eson. — ( C heers.) His (Mr. Matheson's) handsome donation had enabled them to carry out what was ono of the most essential parts of the institution, viz., the girls' school. The girls were that portion of their rising race whose nurture re quired the most especial care and ten derness.—(Applause.) Those little girls were present that evening to the number of 50, and he hoped shortly to see their number doubled. He hoped also that every one of them would become a good member of the com munity. It was by the munificent donation of Mr. Matheson that those little girls were being educated ; and he (the Chairman) trusted L that the result of that day's meeting would show that their hearts were ready to respond to the appeals msde to them on behalf of those children they saw before them.—(Cheers.) The toast he had to propose was, " The Caledonian Asylum, and may the offspring i f the brave never want a protector." Mr. GEORGE LINDSAY, one of the auditors, then en tered into seine particulars respecting the institution. He said there had been, last year, 74 boys and 48 girls main tained in the institution. The expenditure during the year had been 3,7401, and he grieved to say that the whole receipts last year had scarcely been 1,000/. They had now reduced their capital stock, so that if the annual subscriptions and donations did not come in more rapidly and largely than hitherto in the course of seven years this asylum must have an end altogether; and those 122 children would be cast upon the wide world, and God knows what would become of them. Several other appropriate toasts were given and re sponded to in the course of the evening, and the com pany separated about 11 o'clock. The donations made in the course I .o %h: fi r: m en:y e amounted to nearly 600/., including icoge from the Duchess of s f Roxburgh, and 15/. Duke of Buccleu f eh em , ae t t2o i f u e k i e ns , Buceleuch, 211 r from Ilerr MO gallery across the foot of the room was filled with lathes, whose presence lent not the least of the miny interesting features which characterised this pleasant evening. Mr. Harker officiated as toastmaster.

Mr. James Hoskins, solicitor of Portsmouth and Gos port, acted as the prisoner's " friend." The evidence in this case was very heavy and lengthy, and has already appeared before the public in the details of the trial at Plymouth of Commander Newlacd, of the Ranger, who was the principal witness in the present trial. Commander Prevost, in defence, having made a very long statement, several witnesses wire called and ex amined, after which the court was cleared for delibera tion. On re-opening the Judge-Advocate announced that the Court had declared the charge fully proved, and adjudged the prisoner to be dismissed from the command of her Majesty's sloop Pantaloon. The following officers, Acting-Lieutenant, Mates, and Midshipmen in the Royal Navy, passed examination in gunnery on board the Excellent, qualifying for the rank of Lieutenant, on Saturday:—Messrs.

She is ordered to proceed to the east-ward to discharge her load, and will sail this evening or to morrow morning. Supernumeraries for the eastern ports were sent to her in the Fanny, the Admiral's yacht, which vessel also brought in those brought home by the Hercules. The Otter steam-vessel sailed yesterday for Milford, where she is to be kept for occasional service, if re quired. The Elfin, steam dispatch boat, Mr. A.

WooLwtcrt, JUNE 29.—The Fisgard frigate, and the Black Eagle and Lightning steam-vessels, were gaily decorated yesterday with a profusion of flags in honour of the anniversary of her Majesty's coronation. Tho whole of the workmen in the dockyard and the Royal Arsenal obtained a holiday and made numerous excur sion parties on the river. The officers of the garrison gave a grand ball in the evening, to which upwards of 800 persons were invited, and it went off with great eclat, the spacious marquees of the Master-General and e barracks, the others in general use being thrown into o ne and used as a supper-room, at the hourthe this morning. splendid mess-room was exclusively devoted t o d anc i ng, which was kept up with great rear rea spirit of th to an early of Tthhei this first annual tial admirable m Tiil in e s M I LLIN.ERS' AM) DRESSMA KERS ' DRESSMAK ERS ' PROVIDENT IN•• etittintlgtiOonf was the d h i e r l ec d, to o r n saturday, at Willis s Rooms, s Lord Ashley in the chair.

The Noble andsr r a friendsl rros — Chairman, after briefly alluding to the objects of the in stitution and the claims which it had upon the wealthy for support, called on Mr. Watson to road the report. It appeared from this document that the institution is now completely organised, and that 81 persons have be come members, 24,0 f whom have paid the requisite life subscription. The expenditure since the commencement of the institution amounts to 153/. 9s. 3d., and the total receipts to 2,2241. 13s. 4d. Notwithstanding this grati fying statement the directors do not feel justified in commencing operations until the receipts amount to 5,000/.-a sum which, considering the objects of the institution and the number and wealth of its patrons, tin re is every reason to hope will soon be contributed. After the reading of the report several resolutions were moved by the Hon. Arthur Kinnaird, Mr. Lewis, and others; and a vote of thanks having been given to the chairman, the meeting separated.
