Tra MISTAKE OF LORD ABERDEEN. (Front the .Examiner.) "My belief is," said Lord John Russell in his speech on Monday night last, " that had the Prime Minister been a man whose persuasions and dispositions would had him to hasten on with eagerness the preparations and arrangements for war, the Duke of Newcastle would bay. been perfectly competent tor the department which in held." - In these words are explained the failure and the down fall of the Aberdeen Administration. No other result Gould attend the determination not merely to conduct a government in accor dance with the ven e polic when i y of peace, b failure bad been demonstrated by the commencement of war. Well would it have been for Lord Aberdeen if he had retired from office when he had exhausted all his powers of conciliation ; when, having proclaimed on every pos sible occasion that peace was the first object of his po licy ; he had at length discovered that the Emperor of "Cassia, utterly unmoved by such pacific demonstrations, was only proFeeeing with increased insolence to take advantage and make profit of thorn. At that time Lord Aberdeen had not only obtained the enthusiastic approval of Mr. Cobden, Mr. Bright, and their adherents, but had demonstrated the fallacy of their principles. He had put them to the test of experi ence, with the direct result, however unintentional, of alluring the " friend of peace and supporter of order" to lay aside the mask be had so carefully worn for many ears. If Lord Aberdeen had then retired, it would have been well for his reputation, and still better for his country. In all probability England would not now have had to mourn the destruction, by a process far more cruel than that of actual warfare, by cold, by hunger, and by disease, of the noblest army ever sent from her shores. There was a weakness in Lord Aberdeen's character, in itself aimable, which made him shrink from the probability of war up to the very day when the sword was drawn ; and this fact, cenpled with his fa vourite but fallaciont maxim, that war is the greatest evil which can befall a nation, rendered him surely the most unfit statesman that could be selected to conduct what he had already shown himself se utterly incom petent to avert. Who would choose, ler the purpose of performing a long and painful operation, a surgeon liable to grow faint at the sight of blood and suffering! Would true humanity approve of such a selection t Yet it is easy to me that a still lingering hope of avoiding extreme hostilities directed all the earlier measures of the war. If the English Government bad been energetically di rected to the attack on Sebastopol from the first mo ment when a °mallet was imminent, can any one doubt that t h e fortress must long ago have fallen with a loss of life comparatively trifling to that which has been actually susta i ne d S Whilst the English troops were halting at Malts, at Gallipoli, in the Valley of Death by Varna, the Russians were incessantly employed in those de fences which have hitherto successfully resisted us. And there were other preparations making in the meantime, while our troops were idly and usefully perishing in Bulgaria, more formidable than even the intrenehments and batteries of Sebastopol. The cold, the rain, and the tempest were preparing in secret and unheeded ; and the precious hours of spring and summer, in which a campaign in the Crimea might have been undertaken with almost the certainty of success, were allowed to ass away. In his farewell speech Lord Aberdeen referred to the success of his Government in securing the alliance of Austria, and expatiated on the advantages tobe expected from it. On this subject we will only here observe that such advantages are still future and contingent, while, on the other hand, the evils undergone to obtain the alliance are positive and present. As Lord John Russell told us at an early period of the session, the English army was kept at Yarns till the autumn solely because the Government was waiting for the Austrian Cabinet to make up its mind. It was thought that an earlier movement might weaken the chance of obtaining the co peration which Lord Aberdeen appears to think cheaply purchased with even so many disasters ; as if any policy could so infallibly have secured this SUMMUM benum of Austrian friendship, as boldness and success on the part of the Allies. The pretext sometimes put forward for the delay, that the expedition to the Crimea was neces sarily deferred until the Austrians had occupied the Principalities, is entirely without foundation. Even it the Russians had not been baffled at Silistria, any at tempt en their part to march upon Constantinople, while the sea was commanded by the Allies, Schumla and Varna garrisoned by Omer Pasha, and the read through Servia closed by the lines of Salafat, would assuredly have been attended with discomfiture and ruin. The Austrian troops, moreover, did not venture to enter the Principalities until the Russians had begun to evacuate them. THE WEATHER, THE PARKS, THE BAILWAPS, thc. The coldest night experienced in London for some con siderable time past was Saturday night, when the mer cury in the thermometer at the Royal Humane Society's receiving -house, Hyde Park, fell to 19 degrees, being 16 belew freezing point. At nine o'clock yesterday morn ing the thermometer indicated 23, and at noon it indexed 30. The barometer at the same institution yesterday was 29-57. The wind yesterday morning at nine o'clock was a little to the north, but during the day it veered from the north to the north-east. The ice on the Ser pentine was five and a half inches in thickness, but of a very dangerous character, arising from the surface having been rotted and broke' by the continuous falls of snow. Fifteen or sixteen thousand sliders and skaters ven tured upon the frozen waters, in spite of the precautions issued by the Royal Humane Society, and several skating matches for heavy stakes took place, notwith standing that it was the Lord's-day. Fortunately no immersion took place from the breaking of the ice, but several—probably 14 or 15—persons received severe cuts on the head by being thrown down upon the ice. These persons were forthwith taken to the receiving -house, where their wounds were dressed, after which they were removed to their respective homes. The scene at one time upon the ice in Hyde park was of a very animated character ; for owing to the immense number of persons, it was found impracticable to cross the river, and many of her Majesty's Foot Guards mingling with the throng -gave it quite a picturesque effect. At the same time, the carriage-drives were crowded with Blears, drawn each by two horses, and carriages, c ontaining members of the nobility o r g entr y . S e veral emales who had ventured upon the frozen waters in this park were run down by the skaters, and wore also severely injured, either by the falls they sustained or front being cut by the points of the gentlemen's skates entering their forehead. So great was the number of promenaders in Hyde-park that many thousands were unable to walk along the footpath, and they in conse quence were compelled to pass ever the carriage -drives. Had any portion of the ice given way in front of the receiving -house, at least -1,000 persons must have become immersed, owing to the vast concourse of per sons who had been drawn together to witness the evolu tions of the members of the Skating Club. In the enclosure of St. James's-park a scene took place yesterday that calls loudly for the interference of the police on all future occasions. At one time, between four and five o'clock in the afternoon, whilst the ice was crowded by something like 10,000 or 12,000 persons, and the men in the employ of the society were watch ing with breathless anxiety the movements of the skaters, they, together with the park-keepers, were besieged by a set of men and boys, numbering several hundreds, who pelted them with snow-balls, by which the men had their hats and caps knocked off, and several gentlemen, and even ladies, had to make a precipitate retreat to get out of the way of the unruly mob. Fortunately they found a place of refuge in the society's marquee in the park, which was sufficiently strong to bear the piti less storm of snow, and which reflects great credit on the maker—viz., Mr. Benjamin Edginton, of Duke. street, Borough. Mr. Deputy Superintendent Parsons, who has charge of this park, states that the scene he witnessed yesterday was such as had not occurred dur ing the many years he has been en duty; but, with the exception of several cut heads, which were dressed by Dr. M'Cann, nothing of a serious accident took place. About 8,000 persons risked their lives upon the Lung Water, in Kensington Gardens, including several mem bers of the Skating Club. The Round Pond, in the rams gardens, was literally besieged with an immense mass of human beings, in cluding several fashionably-dressed females. No accident beyond severe cat woands on the head took place during the day. The Regent's Park had many thousand skaters and sliders on the frozen waters during the day, and the ice was of an exceedingly rotten and dangerous nature. In some parts it had separated to such an extent that a man could place his hands in the aperture. Up to six o'clock last evening no fatal accident had been reported at Hyde Peek. great praise is due to Mr. Williams, the superin tendent, and also to Messrs. Deputy Superintendents to 4r AY. Parsons, and Chitty, for the means they took 41 72lerve the li ves of her Majesty's liege subject s .

Jordan, Ensign Dunbar, 7 sergeants, 2 drummers, and 121 rank and file, left the depot of the 34th Regiment in Plymouth citadel, preceded by the band of the Royal Marines, and marched to the Royal Willia m Victuallin g Yard, where they were received by General Eden on board the steam-tug Confiance, which conveyed them to the Sound. The Crcesus sailed at 5.30 p.m. The troops on board are detachments of regiments belonging to the light Brigade at the Crimea, and are sent to Malta to form a provisional battalion for that force. Of the 843 rank and file who embarked at Portsmouth only one in valided ashore at Plymouth. Barnes. Both parties were anxious that the money should be paid and received according to their own ideas ; one believing that if he s,aid be would only pay it as rent that would be sufficient•, and the other thinking that if he raid he should not receive it, he would be protected. Lord Campbell read over the evidence which bad been given to the jury, and pointed out the discrepan cies, and then left it to the jury to decide as to whose evidence they believed. The jury retired, and, on their return, Lord Campbell said—Gentlemen, do you believe Mar telli's statement or Barnes's statement ? The jury returned a verdict in favour of Marielli's statement. INSTITUTION OF CIVIL ENGINEERS. At the last meeting the discussion was renewed on Mr. Reanie's " Description of the Aqueduct of Roquefavour, and the Canal of Marseilles." It was stated that, being struck with the magnitude of the general design and the execution of the works, the author had sought for some description of them, but not finding any, be had taken such measurements and made such observations as a limited visit permitted, and on offering them to the insti tution the secretary had obtained from other sources the large plans and more detailed information which had been laid before the meeting, as well as the elevations of the other ancient and modern aqueducts which were exhibited. The celebrated Pont-du-Gard has also been visited, on the same occasion, for the purpose of comparison with the mere modern structure. It would appear that the ancients were not ignorant of the use of pipes for conducting water, as tubes, both of lead and earthenware, had been found in the oldest remains ; but as they had not any knowledge of the use of cast-iron, they could only use pipes of small dimensions, and subject only to moderate pressure. It might, however, be conceived that the use of channels and lefty aqueducts, preserving nearly a regular and very gradual fall, had been adopted, because it was found necessary to afford an opportunity for the water deposit jig the impurities held in mechanical or chemical sus pension ; accordingly, on the sides and in the bottom of the water channel of the Pont-du-Gard, there was a de posit of nearly a foot in thickness of carbonate of lime, and beneath the soffit of some of the upper arches there were 8/upended several large stalactites, formed by the per colation of the water through cracks in the masonry. The same reason had probably, in some degree, induced the adoption of se expensive a construction as the aqueduct of Roquefavour, in preference to using metal pipes, lest the deposit should become so considerable as to eventually stop them up. This had actually occurred in the lead pipes, originally five inches in diameter, found in connection with the Alcantara, near Lisbon, and through which, although only about a century old, scarcely any aperture remained. At Lyons there was an ancient aqueduct, composed of pipes carried down one side of a valley and up the oppo site bank, which was another proof of the knowledge among the ancients of the use of pipes under pressure. Attention was directed to the discrepancies in the seve ral statements of the dimensions, quantities, and cost given in the documents that had been read, and it was suggested how desirable it would be, that the secretary should collate and collect them, from information to be derived from Mr. Montricher, the engineer of the work, before publishing the paper in the minute of proceedings. It should be remembered that the great works of the an cients were national undertakings, executed without re gard to expense ; whereas, public works were now gene rally the result of the enterprise of associated individuals, and however an en ..ineer of the presentday might be inclined to exercise his taste and skill, in designing and executing monumental structures, he was restricted by tho modern inventions of " estimate of cost" and "dividend," which were generally received as the standard of his genius and skill. It was shown that public works required to be designed in accordance with the country or district in which they were situated ; for instance, in Norway, where, although the line of railway traversed a difficult country, the esti mated total cost was limited to about 10,0001. per mile, in cluding stations, plant, &c. There were several tunnels, and some high viaducts, and it would have been impossible, within the stipulated limit of expense, to have constructe 1 the latter of masonry ; therefore, red pine timber, the in digenous and cheap produce of the country, was adopted and used without squaring , and with only just that amount of preparation and of labour as enabled the timbers to be framed together. The cost was about Is. per square foot of superficial area of elevation, as compared with 255., the stated cost of the Roquefavour aqueduct. The timber was not presumed to last beyond 15 years, and a fund would be taken by the company from revenue, to enable a more permanent structure to be erected or an embankment to be formed. It was contended that the cracks observed in the upper arches of the Roquefavour aqueduct resulted rather from insufficient weighting of the haunches than from expan siou. In corroboration of the view previously expressed, 1 . was mentioned, on the authority of the Architectural Dictionary, published by the Architectural Publication Society, article " Aqueduct," that " To cross the Man hattan Valley, an aqueduct bridge, 105 feet high, and 4,180 feet long, would have been required ; this would have preserved three feet of head-pressure for the conduit water, but at an expense of about 240 , 0001 ., while the pas sage b y: four pipes of 36 inches each was calculated to cost one-fifth of that amount; the latter was therefore adopted." It was contended that the design of the aqueduct of Ro quefavour conveyed the impression of unnecessary Huai tity on the part of the architect, as it was merely a copy of the bushy of the by building a ld ffo in r g di ; ng in a fa ct, ci re it f. was atin probable forthe the ancient structures ; the three tiers of arches were not at scaffold ing. all necessary for strength, nor did they conduce to the be an cients only adopted that system because it facilitated the construction The modern viaducts constructed fur supporting rail way trains, weighing 300 or 400 tons, travelling at the rate of 40 to 50 miles an hour, were all upon piers with one tier u lty in infrequent raising currence, a of arches; and when the building of isolated furnace chim neyss 350fee n t e i t n blieeigahntywdaiffic was e a n s e e r t eb be i a e could series of such shafts, and connecting them at the top by c r r arches. The water conducted from the springs near Belles to passed by the aqueduct of Alcantai a, 2,600 feet long, over a valley, at such an elevation that the soffit of the centre arch, of 08 feet 4 inches span, was 229 feet above the ground level. That structure consisted of one tier of pointed arches, of a kind of grey marble ; it was completed souse time before the year 1752. It was contended that, for merely conducting a large quantity of water, the bridge aqueduct of Itoquefavour was unnecessarily substantial and expensive, and the example of the Bristol Waterworks was quoted as a case in point. The water was there derived from the Mendip-hills, sixteen miles distant; an ample channel conducted it along the imperatively level country, the hills were traversed by tunnels, one of them being one and a quarter miles in length, through magnesian conglomerate rock ; several deep ravines were crossed by aqueducts, and in the undu lating, or, it might be called, hilly part of the line, pipes were with culminating points, crowned by obelisks, concealing air-pipes, by means of which the ventilation of the entire line was achieved. Three of the aqueducts were each composed of an oval tube, 4 feet 8 inches by 3 feet 6 inches of wrought-iron plates, 3-Bths inch t 3 7-16ths inch in thickness, riveted together; two of them being 834 feet, and the other 400 in length ; there was also another of cast iron pipes. Each wrought-iron tube was supported in the centre on an equilibrium pier, and so placed on balls as that, whilst longitudinal motion was not entirely prohi bited, it was not encouraged, but lateral action was pro vided for. Each and worked in a length of ten feet of clay puddle to allow for expansion and contraction ; and on the top of all the piers, which wore 50 feet apart from centre to centre, the tube rested in cradles containing balls, acting as rollers fer aiding the motion. The loftiest pier was about 60 feet high above the ground level, and the gra dient over the aqueducts were about five feet per mile. The cost of these aqueducts wasl6/. 10s. per lineal yard, includ ing all expenses, and they were capable of discharging five millions of gallons of water per diem. It had been found the simplest mode of avoiding deposit from the limestone water to have a falling gradient of five feet per mile for the aqueducts and 10 feet per mile for the pipes. Not to have any stop sluices along the line, but, when it was considered necessary, to open the large side sluices from the tanks, which were placed at intervals of about a mile, and to let all the contents run freely away. This system had been found perfectly successful ; in fact, by adopting three con ditions :-18t, affording opportunity for the primary sub sidence and deposit of the matters held in suspension ; 2d, giving velocity by gradient through the aqueducts and pipes ; and 3d, cleansing the aqueducts and pipes at stated intervals, all detrimental deposit had been prevented. Large sections of these interesting works, which had been designed by the president, were contributed by him for the meeting. Further details and calculations were given, showing the immense velocity required to deliver, through the Mar seilles canal, the quantity of water stated to be supplied ; these were ordered to be examined previots to publication, and all the members were requested to supply any infor mation in their power. The paper read was " On the construction of the Sea Embankments across the Estuaries Kent and Leven, in Morecambe Bay, for the Ulverstose and Lancaster Rail way," by Mr. James Brunlees, M. Inst. C.E. The early projects of the late Mr. George Stephenson and Mr. J. Hague, for embanking and reclaiming More cambe Bay, were first noticed ; other railway and embank ing works originally projected by M. J. R. M'Clean were also alluded to; these which formed the subject of the paper and were now being executed by the author for a company, though very different in direction and in system to the two first designs, were nearly identical with those of Mr. M'Clean, and all had fer object to carry a line of railway across part of the bay, and by its means eventually to re claim large tracts of land for agricultural purposes. The lines to be connected were the Furness and West Coast Railways with Lancaster and the South. The principal works were on the estuaries of the Kent and the Leven, with the view of fixing the hitherto unstable fresh-water channels of these streams, so as to facilitate the eventual reclaiming of a considerable portion of the bay. The works were commenced in May, 103, and in spite of great difficulties had made considerable progress. The embankments were formed of the calcareous sands as heart ing, covered on the sea slopes by a layer of well-prepared clay puddle, upon which was deposited a depth of 18 inches of small quarry rubbish, locally termed " quarry rid," and then faced with pitching composed of lime-stones 15 inches deep, varying from 8 inches to 16 inches in width; the slopes thns formed stood well at 1 to 1, and 2 to 1, and after a time, when the material became consolidated, ne water ooeld pass through the embankments. The height varied considerably, being in some portions as muck as 15 feet 6 inches above high water of ordinary spring tides, and 4 feet 3 inches above the highest tide ever remembered on that part of the coast. In consequence of the high price of labour, carts with two wheels were substituted for wheelbarrows in forming the embankments, taking care to carry on only such lengths as could be raised to a safe height, puddled and pitched be tween erring tides, the open end of each length being laid to a flat inclination, up which the material for topping off could be carted, that end being protected during spring tides by clay and stones; about 10 or 11 lineal yards could thus be formed per day, •r at the rate of a mile in six months, from one face. Details were also given of the construction of the low atone weirs, formed fer the purpose of preventing the " bracking" or shifting if the channel of the streams, under which as much as 60,000 tons of sand had been moved in the course of one tide. Although it was not probable that the force exerted by the waters in Morecambe Bay would ever equal that of the waves of the German Ocean which had been shown by the experimental marine dynantometerof Mr. D. Stevenson to be equal to 11 ton per square foot, the author asssumed that as a standard, and constructed the embankments to withstand double that force ; at the same time, he adopted regular slopes of 1A to 1, and of 2 to 1 , in preference to the con , cave firm, as he had in various localities seen prejudicial effects arise from the use of that sectioh as the 144T011 were forced up tho flat part of the slope with groat velocity, I then acouniuliting on the moor() abrupt part they curial over, and in the recoil fell wit , A such force on the pitching as to loosen the stones, and allow them to be drawn out I by the under-tow, er retreat of the wave. Numerous experiments were tried for determining the t. force required to draw bricks out of slopes 4 feet high, built at various angles. The following were the average results : Weight in lbs. required to extract the centre brick. 105 lbs. 148 „ 3 4 ~ 1 The weight was applied direct to the brick, by a chain pass* over a pulley, and increased gradually. The viitincts over the river channels were intended to be built of timber, founded upon Mitchell's screw piles; each structure consisting of 50 spans •f 30 feet each, with a drawbridge at the channel with an opening of 36 feet span, a model of which was exhiibted.

Last night (Sunday), a fcw mit.ittcs after nine o'cloek, tla inhabitants of the LoNer-road, Isqngton, were alarmed et hearing an unusual noise and loud cries for and at the same time they perceived what appeared to be a dense column of smoke from the pr•• wises No 2in that thoroughfare. The smoke having been perceived and the cries heard by Douglas, the conductor of the Royal Society's fire clew° stationed on Islingt'm green, he immediately proceeded to the t , pot, when lie found a man, his wife, and his two children at the second floor front window, whose escape had been cut off by the falling of the staircase and centre of the building. Ile instantly ascended the fire escape, and brought down in safety the whole of the four persons whose lives 'were so much jeopardised. As other portions of the buildings kept falling, Douglas removed his machine from the building when the front fell with a fearful crash into the road. The conductor, assisted by some police-constables, hearing groans proceeding from the lower part of the premises, proceeded thither, and found the legs of a female projecting from the debris of the first fall. An attempt was made to ex4ricate the unfortunate person, but whilst doing so another part of the walls fell, and those engages had to make a precipitate retreat, which was effected in safety by all engaged in the hazardous undertaking except police-constable Stoker, No. 2C2, of the N division, who, it is to be regretted, was buried in a mass of rubbish. The ether persons received some slight contusions and were nearly suffocated in dust. From the fact of a great number of workmen engaged in building trades residing in the locality, a strong force was soon collected of able and willing hands, and the work of exhumation commenced, notwithstanding the perilous position of the remaining portions of the building, which threatened every moment to fall upon them. Nearly two hours elapsed before any discovery was made of the bodies buried in the ruins, and at a quarter before 11 o'clock the body of police-con stable Stoker was found, and on being got out life was found to be extinct. The work was continued, and a lad, named Hodges, a son of the parties above rescued, was next extricated, and great efforts were made by several medical gentlemen in attendance to restore sus pended animation, but without avail, The next body recovered was that of a male lodger, a shoemaker by trade, but whose name is at present unknown. In this case life, having been found to be so recently extinct, attempts were made to resuscitate the body, but also without effect. After the lapis of some time, a youngir son of the Hodges was extricated, but lifeless. A strong police force, under Mr. Superintenrent Walker and In spector Brennand, were quiekly on the spot, and supplied with links to facilitate in every possible way the extri cation of the unfortunate persons. Mr. Baddeley, the inspector of the Royal Society for the Protection of Life from Fire, was present from the first, actively aiding and assisting the parties engaged. The building in ques tion was a very old one, consisting of a double house, one half of which was over a shop, the other half was over a gateway forming an entrance to some stables at the rear. "Whether from an accumulation of snow on the roof, or from some other cause not known, the root and central portion of the building over the gateway fell first, and buried all the unfortunate sufferers except the police constable, who perished in attempting their rescue. Stoker had been for many years in the forte ; he was an excellent constable, and was much respected by all who knew him. A widow and four children hare to deplore his untimely end. NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Neptuue, 120, Capt. Hutton, disembarked into the steam-tug Pigmy, at Spithead, on Saturday the re mainder of her wounded invalids, under the superintend ence of Dr. Odell, staff-surgeon of Portsmouth garri son, by means of cots. These were removed, immedi ately on landing, to hospital quarters. It was pleasing to witness the feeling evinced by the military invalids on leaving the Neptune in the Sprightly and Pigmy. The gallant sufferers cheered heartily Capt. Hutton and his officers and crew, who as heartily responded to the unlooked-for compliment, and, before leaving, they pre sented the following grateful testimonial, through the officer (Captain Grogan) who had charge of them : "Portsmouth, Feb. 8, 1855. " Sir,---We have the honour to request you will have the goodness to forward to Captain Frederick Hutton, the unanimous thanks of the invalids on board her Ma jesty's ship Neptune, for the very great kindness we have received from every officer, seaman, and marine under kis command during our voyage from Malta to this place ; and that he will have the goodness to acquaint the medical offi cers in particular that their indefatigable exertions to re lieve the sufferings of the sick and w ounded under t heir beg r s t i o i ps remar k from carpt ha t h m a e d r itth o ur k an indelible dwo agnrdaetait on u b oa rd de .

Serjeant, 49th Regiment. " To Captain Grogan, 14th Regiment, Commanding Invalids." The 185 invalids landed from the Neptune on Friday evening were located for the night in the Clarence Bar racks, the quarters of the Royal Wilts Militia, and many of this well-trained and efficient regiment most humanely and readily (voluntarily) gave np their beds to the sick and wounded, and attended to their wants. Quartermaster Paton was indef a ti ga bl e i n see i ng t o th e i r evening meal and breakfast oa Saturday morning. Their rations being drawn , Mr. Chamney , purveyor to the Queen, gratuitously, though late at night, undertook to cook the gallant sufferers' provisions at his bakery. Mr. Paton was at his post next morning to see each get his allowance before leaving for Chatham invalid depot. They all expressed their warmest gratitude to Lord Methuen, commanding the Wilts Militia, his offi cers and men, whom they loudly cheered on leaving. The hired steam-transport Orinoco (one of the Royal West India Mail Company's squadron), Captain Wilson, went into Portsmouth harbour at about a quarter past 5 o'clock on Saturday evening, to land the sick and wounded military invalids she brought from Scutari, as reported in The Sun of Saturday. Lieutenant-Colonel Lord Methuen, Assistant Quartermaster-General Dal getty, Acting Assistant-Adjutant-General Nelson, Ad miral Superiatendent Martin, Lieutenant Parks, R.N., and Dr. Odell, Staff-Surgeon of Portsmouth garrison, and numeroup officials were in waiting for the ship's arri val alongside the dockyard jetty. The officers who came home in this ship landed in boats at the town-pier and other places at an earlier part of the day and pro ceeded to the Geerge, the Star and Garter, and Quebec Hotels, while others proceeded direct for London. The men were of the following regiments and numbers : Royal Artillery, 11 ; 2d Dragoons, 1 ; 4th Light Dra goons, 2 ; 4th Dragoon Guards, 3; sth Dragoon Guards, 1 ; 11th Hussars, 2 ; 13th Light Dragoons, 1 ; Grena dier Guards, 5 ; Scots Fusilier Guards, 1 ; Coldstream Guards, 5 ; 4th Foot, 3 ; 7th, 6 ; 19th, 5 ; 20th, 1 ; 21st, 6 ; 23d, 2 ; 28th, 2 ; 30th, 6 ; 33d, 7 ; 41st, 2 ; 44th, 1 ; 46th, 1 ; 47th, 2 ; 49th, 4 ; 50th, 3 ; 55th, 1 ; 57th, 1 ; 68th, 2 ; 77th, 1 ; 79th, 1 ; 88th, 3 ; 93d, 3 ; 95th, 4 ; Ist Battalion Rifle Brigade, 7 ; 2d ditto, 1 ; Ambulance corps, 3 ; Royal Marines, 1. Most of these were engaged at Inkerman. One man, a Royal Artil leryman, had both arms shot off ; seven have lost each a leg ; a dozen or so have been shot through the arm, and there are four who still have the missiles with which they were struck embedded in their wounds. Thirteen of the most urgent cases for removal were taken out of the Orinoco along ide the dockyard on Saturday night in stretchers by fatigue parties of the Wilts Militia, and sent to sick quarters in the garrison hospital by Dr. Odell. The remainder stayed in the ship all yesterday, and will be landed this morning at 7 o'clock and re moved to the London, Brighton, and South Coast Rail way terminus at Landport in omnibuses provided for the purpose, after having a good and plenteous hot breakfast, and each being supplied with ample cooked rations to serve him on the journey to Chatham invalid depot (Fort Pitt), where they will be delivered up by Mr. C. J. Symonds, of the Orinoco, who is the senior surgeon of the Royal West India Mail Company's staff afloat, and Captain Cockburn, of the 63d Light In fantry (wounded), Rho has military charge of them. Mr. Symonds has had the exclusive atten tion of these men on the passage home, and performed several difficult operations, many having had portions of bone taken out of their limbs by him. Their gratitude and regard, as expressed in our presence, ' were unbounded. The Orinoco also landed on Saturday upwards of 0 packages of baggage belonging to the Duke of Cambridge and his staff ; three horses belong ing to his Royal Highness also were brought horns in this ship, together with two the property of Colonel M'Donald, aide-de-camp to his Royal Highness ; three the property of Colonel M'Mahen, of the sth Dragoon Guards, &c. The Orinoco is coaling to proceed to Southampton to refit. The admirable and cleanly manner in which this great ship berthed her invalids, and brought theta home without Ike loss of a man, re flects the highest credit upon Captain Wilson and Dr. Symonds. She has carried upwards of 11,000 troops since she has been employed in the war traavort service. Orders were received at Portsmouth dockyard on Friday evening to send the Duke of Wellington round to Plymouth as soon as possible. The dockyard work men have been employed night and day upon her engine 4 for the last week. On Saturday extra hands were placed upon them, and they were completed by yesterday at noon. She left Spithead at half-past one p.m. under steam. in charge of Commander George Preedy, who was recalled from leave for the purpose of taking her round. She has only about 400 of her crew on board. Her engines have only been put together to take her to Plymouth, whore they are to be repaired. The ship is to be docked, and thoroughly caulked, during which time her crew will be hulked. The Russell, GO, screw steam-ship, was commissioned at Sheerness on Saturday by Mr. M' D. Jago, Master of the Odin. Captain Francis Scott is daily expected to take up his commission to this ship. Her complement of marines (150) have arrived from Woolwich by the Fear less steam-vessel, R. Harvey, Master-Commander. The Russell is to have a complement of 500 men. A rendez vous has been opened at Sheerness for the entry of sea men. All expedition has been made to get ready for sea. The screw steam-ship Corawalli4, 60, was warped to the shear-hulk at Plymouth on Saturday, to have her boilers put on board. The screw steam-frigate Euryalis, 51, Captain Ram say, having had her bowsprit put on board, was warped to the jetty at Plymouth on Saturday to complete her fittings. The Nankin, 50, Captain the Hon. Keith Stewart, has been inspected at Sheerness by Vice-Admiral of the Blue the Hon. W. Gorden, Commander-in-Chief, at the buoy of the Nore. She sailed on Saturday for Spithead, with a choice ship's company of officers and men. Captain the Hon. A. A. Cochrane arrived at Sheer ness on Saturday, and took up his commission to the Horatio, 24, screw steam-ship, and has taken command. Commander Robert Jenner, late in command, has left to command the Basilisk, 6, paddle-wheel steam-sloop, now in the Baltic. The Tartar, 21, :mew corvette, Captain Hugh Dun lop, was ordered on Saturday to proceed round to Spit head. She is still considerably short of her complement of seamen. The steam-frigate Mag,icienne,l6, and the screw steam corvette Esk, 20, Captain Birch, were taken into Key - ham on Saturday. Commander John B. Marsh, of the Waterloo, has left Sheerness to take charge (acting captain) of th e Conflict, 8, screw corvette, now employed on particular service. The steam-frigate Dragon, 6, Capt. Willcox,was taken into the basin dock at Plymouth on Saturday. The paddle-wheel steam-frigate Vulture, 6, Captain Glasse, went into harbour at Plymouth on Saturday. The Rhadamanthua, paddle-wheel steam store-ship, Master-Commander John Belem, began to leak on Wed nesday evening, and she sunk in the basin at Woolwich. It is supposed a stop-cock had been left open, which caused her to fill with water. The Porcupine, 3, steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Com mander G. M. Jackson, is now waiting Admiralty orders b proceed to Heligoland on particular service. The Cuckoo steam-gun vessel, Lieutenant-Commander A. G. E. Murray, is ordered to be ready also for particu lar service. SHIPS READY FOR SEA.

The hired screw steam t r a ns p or t Crcesus, Captain C. 1 7 . Hall, from Portsmouth, which arrived in Plymouth--- Sound on Saturd a y merning, at 7 o' clock, with troops for Malta, was, dur in g the forenoon, closely inspect e d by Major-General Eden, who was accompanied by Brig a d e . Major Ibbetson and Captain Parker. All the men were in good spirits, and are provided with suMoiont aceom. THE TRANSPORTS. The brig Timandra is loading with provisions, bread, and beef, at the Royal William Victualling-yard, Ply month, for tke Crimea ; the brig Rambler is loading bread and other articles for Balaklava ; and the schooner Chinka is loading rum, beef, and pork for Constanti nople. The Resistance is unloading salt beef and pork from Ireland. The psddlewheel•steamer Telegraph sailed from Liver pool for Balaklava on Friday, with stores for the army and 120 commissary drivers on board. The new screw steamer Etna and the screw-steamer Graat Britain will follow in a few days, the former with stores and 170 horses, and the latter with 1,650 infantry and 30 horses on board. A NEW BULLET. A new bullet, the invention of Mr. N. G. Sanntoun, C.E., was tested at one of the police-stations, Liverpool, last week. When fired, it expands front 24 inches to 30 inches, and acts as a sword, cutting horizontally through• out the whole of its course. These bullets are made of brass, and resemble, in some respects, the Minis rifle ball ; they require no change of the firearms now in use. SAILING OF THE CHARLOTTE JANE. The Charlotte Jane, sailing-transport, so long detained by Government mismanagement at Portsmouth, got away thence on Saturday. It will be remembered Ler troops sent from Guernsey were embarked in a surf in open boats, and saturated, and then sent off without their heavy baggage, which was left en the beach. This reached Southampton on Saturday, at noon, when great exertion was made to get it transshipped into a steamer at that port and conveyed to Portsmouth ; however, the Charlotte Jane got under way, and was going out of Portsmouth harbour minus her troops' baggage, when she met the steamer conveying it, and took it in while continuing her course out of harbour, leaving the an chorage at 3 p.m. at last, with a fair wind, for Barbadoes. CAPTAIN SCOTT AND THE CREW OF TIE ODIN. On the return from leave of the crew of the Odin, 16, paddle-frigate, Captain Scott, they, on being told that their captain was appointed to command the screw block-ship Russell, 60, with ono voice went forward aad vslunteered to accompany him, and the ship's conapsny themselves wrote out and sent a memorial to the Ad miralty, praying to be transferred with their gallant and popular captain. THE WIND-BOUND TRANSPORT TALAVERA. The sailing-transport Talavera, Captain Scott, which left Scutari, December 8, and arrived at Plymouth last Tuesday, continua wind-beund in the Sound. She brought 198 non-ceransissioned officers and men, of whom three, afflicted with sloughing wounds, were landed on Wednesday, 33 if the Guards and worst cases on Thursday, and 63, being all the maimed, on Saturday. General Eden went on board the ship on Tuesday shortly after her arrival, and kindly sent warm clothing from his private store to some of the poor fellows, a large por tion of whom left Scutari with a single suit, and were thus quite unprepared for the prevailing inclement weather, especially as they would hare to encounter a cold passage up Channel to their destination, Chatham. Their condition being communicated by the agent and master of the ship to the public, the Mayor of the town, Mr. Themes Stevens, and several other benevolent per sons promptly followed the example of General Eden, and Mr. George Seltau, a magistrate of the county, went on board on Thursday, and subsequently obtained an interview with the general, when discretionary power was obtained from the Horse Guards to supply every comfort to the invalids. The report that the soldiers were in a personal state of uneleanliness is without foundation. During their stay in the Sound the Earl of Mount-Edgecunsbe has afforded them constant supplies of ♦egetables from his own gardens, The weather having moderated on Saturday morning, the Harbinger left Spithead for her destination. MILITARY. It is rumoured that the 26th—two company depots— will shortly leave Belfast for Chatham. A draught of the 3d Buffs, numbering 350 men, under command of Major C. W. Green, with Capt. Cole, Lieu tenants Kains and Roe, Ensigns Cos, Hyndntan, Henry, and Sattie, embarked at Queenstown on board the Severn transport en Wednesday. A. draught of the 72d, consisting of 50 men, with two sergeants, under cotn mend of Ensign St. John, also embarked, and 50 com missariat drivers from Elizabeth Fort. draught, consisting of 346 of the 48th and 262 of the Ist Royals, embarked, on Thursday, on board the Imperador transport. Major G. M. Lye, Lieut. Gale, and Ensigns Farquhar, Brooke, and Cumming, of the 45th Regiment, and Lieut.-Colonel Graham, Capt. Gore, Lieuts. Campbell, Cartois, Bellew, and Ensign Free born accompany the draught. The Imperador arrive d in (boomtown on Wednesday. DESERTION OF SEAMEN IN TEE TRANSPORT SERVICE. SOUTHAMPTON, FRB. 9 Great interest has been felt at this port in consequence of a magisterial inquiry having been instituted in refer ence to the alleged desertioa of several of the seamen connected with the steam transport Mauritius, belong ing to the General Screw Company. This vessel lately returned from the Black Sea with invalids, and on her arrival at Southampton she was ordered back to Ports mouth. Upon reaching that pert, it was deemed expe dient to again despatch her to Chatham, and upon the men discovering that such was to be the case, they de serted her by jumping over the bulwarks of the ship. Upon application to the commander, Captain Stewart, for their wages and clothes, they were refused Loth. In consequence, several of the craw appeared at the magis trates' office yesterday, to procure a summons against the captain for his retention of their clothes, and his re fusal to pay their wages. After some conversation be tween their solicitor and the magistrates the summons was granted. Shortly after the men left the court, Capt. Shuttleworth, one of the directors of the General Screw Company, Captain Stewart, and Mr. Izod, the chief offi cer, appeared before the hench. Capt. Shuttleworth de signated the men as deserters, and requested the magis trate to put the law in force against them. Directly the ship arrived at Portsmouth, and, in fact, before she was moored, they left her, refusing to take her to where she was ordered by the Government, and its con sequence put the company to which she belonged to considerable expense. The articles having been put in, proved that the men who left in the ship in August last were bound to her for 12 months to go to any port in England, France, or the Mediterranean, and Black Sea which her Majesty's transport or ether service mi ht require. Captain Shuttleworth said, that the same case of desertion had happened to another of their company's ships, the Harbinger, and the moment the Government were informed of it every man was seized and put into prison. By the men leaving the Mauritius the lives of all the invalids on board were put in danger, and likewise the safety of the ship. The mayor thought that the cases on the summons issued against the cap tain must be first gone into. Captain Shuttleworth considered the cases distinct. The magistrates wishbd to know why the men were not given in charge at Portsmouth at the time they deserted the ship I Cap tain Shuttleworth said that they jumped over the side of the vessel before the captain was aware of it, and were off. Between 30 and 40 of the crew had left the vessel, which was still in the Government service, and work was stepped in consequence. After some further conversation, Captain Shuttleworth pressed for the im mediate issue of warrants for the apprehension of the men who had left the ship at Portsmouth. The war rants were then granted. The several parties appeared again this morning ; but, in consequence of the absence of two necessary witnesses, the case was adjourned until Monday. TEE AMERICAN Mans.—The United States mail steam-ship Baltic, Captain James Comstock, sailed from the Mersey at two p.m. on Saturday for New York, with the usual United State, and Canadian mails, 84 passengers, and a full cargo of merchandise on freight. erIDVERTISIMIINT.]—Many thousand ewes have bees ected without mediciae, by Du Barry's Delicious Rev*. lenta Arabica Food, of indigestion (dyspepsia), emistipation, nervous, bilious, and liver eensplaiats, paralysis, &c.

(Before Lord Chief Justice Jervis, Sir John Dodson, Mr. Pemberton Leigh, and Sir Edward Ryan.) zonto'■ PATINT ANCHOR-JUDGMENT. In this case a patent had been granted on the 15th of August, 1838, to Mr. -Porter, for the improved manu facture of anchors. It expired on the 15th August, 1852, and on the 18th Feb., 1853, was prolonged for six years, the condition being that it was to be void if it were not a new invention. An action having been brought for its infringement, it was decided that it was not a new invention, and the case came subsequently on petition before the Council. The Right Hon. T. Pemberton Leigh now delivered an elaborate judgement, reviewing the facts of the case, aid deciding that the invention was not new. They would, therefore, advise her Majesty to grant the peti tion against the prolongation, but as they were not satisfied with the manner in which this opposition had been conducted, without eosts.—Petition allowed. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH. CROFT Y. LUMLEY.-HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE. The Attornny•Generel, Mr. H. Hill, and Mr. Wines were counsel for the plaintiff ; and Sir F. Thesiger, Sir E Kelly, Mr. Bramwell, Mr. Ellis, and Mr. Wells for the defendants, Lumley, Lord Ward, and others. This Was an action of ejectment,' brought to recover possession of her Majesty's Theatre and Property adjoin- leg. The Attorney-General said this was an action of eject- ment, brought by Mr. Croft, the plaintiff, who was trust's, and executor of Mr. Thomas Holloway, to re cover the property known as her Majesty's Theatre. Mr. Holloway, the grandfather of the gentleman now inte rested, was the lessee under the Crown, so far back as 1793 ; but in 1845 Mr. Lumley became lessee to Mr. Holloway, and under that lease Mr. Lumley now claimed to hold the theatre. Mr. Lumley was entitled to let 45 boxes and 56 stalls, but he was not entitled to lot them but from season to season. He was tied down ley the strictest covenants not to encumber the theatre in any way, and not to convert the theatre to any other use, nor be behind in pays:lest of the rent, or the lease would be forfeited. The plaintiff alleged that Mr. Lumley had broken his covenant in every way. He bad given war rants of attorney, and judgments were entered up against him to the extent of 54,6131., and they were, it was con tended, encumbrances upon the property. Mr. Lumley had also let several boxes and stalls for more than a sea son, to a gentleman of the name of Hughes. This was a violation of thweevenant. By these means Mr. Lum ley had absolutely ruined the theatre. Lord Campbell said that it appeared to him that the whole matter would involve itself into a question of law, and perhaps, if the facts were admitted, the better way would be at once to turn it into a special case, so that it might go to a court of error. The Attorney-General said there would only be one question of fact. It was alleged, on the other side, that there had. been a waiver of the forfeiture by the plaintiff having received rent in October last, but he should show that the money had not been received as rent. It was ultimately arranged that the facts should be turned into a special case, but that the evidence as to the waiver should be left to the jury. C. H. A. Martelli--I am a member of the bar, and am the brother of Mr. Holloway, the owner of the Opera house. I have the entire management of my hrother's property in the Haymarket, the Opera-arcade, &c. The Opera has been shut for two years, which has been a great injury to the other property. I have received the rent of the Opera-house for years. I first became acquainted with the warrants of attorney given by Mr. Lumley to Mr. Hughes in June last. I have discovered others within the last fortnight. I dill not previously know of any warrants of attorney having been given by Lumley to any one. I directed a search to be made in June. I had $ correspondence with Mr. Barnes. In January last I found, by accident, that some boxes and stalls had been disposed of for a longer period than a seasoll,other than the excepted boxes. On the 2d of July, 1850, Lumley gave ua a notice defining the boxes he should retain under the lease. I became acquainted of the fact from an affidavit that had been filed by lughes. On October 27 I went to Lyon, Barnes, and Ellis, solititers for many of the parties interested in boxes. I took this letter with me, and read it to Mr. Barnes, who declined to take the letter. The rent was tendered, and I said I took it without prejudice to the right of re-entry, and not as rent, but as compensation for occupation, Cross-examined—l had one or two interviews with Mr. Barnes after I received the money. Mr. Barnes uni formly declared that he tendered the money as rent, and unconditionally. I as uniformly said I should receive it merely as compensation for the occupation, and not as rent under an unforfeited lease, as I considered the lease forfeited. I went to his office on the 27th of Oc tober, by previous appointment, for the payment of the money. Upon that occasion I mentioned to him that I had a letter I wished to read to him. I think he did not soy that if I read it, it might prevent his paying the money. He said be could not take the letter. He re jected the letter. When I first saw Barnes, his clerk came in with the money, 9671. 75., which was the amount of half a year's rent, which was due at Michaelmas. Mr. Barnes said. "I tender you this without any eoadi tion or reservation attached to it." I said I will ac cept it without prejudice to the right of re-entry. I shall take it as compensation for the occupation merely, and not as rent under an unforfeited lease. Mr. Barnes then said, "I do not assent to any such condition. I tender it as the rent due, and you Inuit take it as such." I don't think hwadded, "or leave it." I said, I per fectly understand what you mean, and I then took up the money. The theatre has not been opened since 1352. We seized the "properties" in Dec., 1851, which were afterwards sold in April, 1853. We remained is pos session all the time, but the theatre was opened white we were in possession. Noblemen and gentlemen inte rested purchased the properties. I heard in June last of the warrants of attorney. In January I found he had let 16 boxes and 50 stalls. In 1352 and 1853 I knew of judgments against Lumley. Be-examined—l did not know of the warrants of at torney till June last. The seizure was for arrears of rent and an advance, making together 10,0001. Several exe cution creditors then came forward. There were twelve intorpleader suits. We only put a man in to protect ourselves. The properties are now Lord Ward's, and are at the theatre. In consequence of a correspondence, Mr. Beabow and Mr. Barna• called on me shortly before the 26th October, and it was arranged that Mr. Barnes should bring the rent, and on the 26th of October I told Barnes he had not made the tender he spoke of. He said he was ready to do so, and the next day I called upon him. I sever assented to take the money as rent. Sir F. Kelly said there was a question as to the pre cise words used at the meeting with Mr. Barnes when the money was paid, and the opinion of the jury must, therefore, decide as to which party was giving the cor rect account of the conversation, and then the matter might be turned into a special account. Lord Campbell said that might be done. Sir F. Kelly then briefly addressed the jury, saying that it was essential that the point should be clearly un derstoal aid decided. Mr. Lumley bad purchased this valuable property at a sum of 100,0001. There was a covenant for a forfeiture in case of the rent not being paid, and it therefore became of the greatest importance that the rent should be punctually paid, and those who were interested in the theatre, therefore, were anxious to take care that the rent should be paid, and Mr. Barnes, a respectable solicitor, tendered the money as rent, and would not pay it on any other terms, and he should call Mr. Barnes, who would tell them exactly what passed. Mr, Barnes—l am a partner with Lyme, Barnes, and Ellis. I recollect the interview on the 20th of October at Martelli's chambers. He said he was going to bring an ejectment. I asked what were the breaches on which he founded it. He said two covenants, the encum brances and not opening the theatre. He said he thought I should have tendered the rent. I replied that I did not think he would have accepted it if it had been ten dered. I then consulted counsel on the effect of pay ment of rent. On the 27th October, Martelli called upon me and produced a letter, which he proposed to read. I told him that in all probability if he read it, it would prevent me from making the tender. He made a motion us if to read it, but I told him I wished to make the tender pure and simple, and to rub out all that had passed between us before on the subject, and my clerk would be in directly with the money. Then Mr. Martell' put the letter into his pocket again. I never heard it read, there was no act of reading. My clerk gante in wal the 9671. 70., and it was placed upon the table, aid 'I said, "I, on behalf of Lumle y , the lessee, tender to you the half-year's rent due at Michaelmas, for her Majesty's Theatre, and I do so without any condi tion or reservation." Mr. Martelii said, "I am ready to accept it without prejudice to the right of re-entry." I replied, " I accepted of no such condition, that as rent I had tendered it, and as rent he must take it or leave it." He then said, " I understand what you mean," and he took the money without further observation. He did not say, "I take this as compensation for occupation only, and not as rent for an unforfeited lease," o r any thing t'e that effect. I had no other object in paying the rent than. to waive the forfeiture. Cross-examined--I was acting for a client, Mr. Hop kinson. I have no personal interest in the matter. I did not make any memorandum of what passed. Mr. Wertner—l am clerk to the last witness. I was present en this occasion. I laid the money on the table. Mr. Martelli said "I will accept it without prejudice to the right of re-entry for breach of covenant." Mr. 13arnas said, "I do not consent to any condition what ever take it, or leave it. Martelli said, "I quite under aaehl nsteanitudisevighealteey.oulnameaarid,e"aanradetoakrauapdatathe m eit o b n e e r y t . b, He sa s m ai e d or the next day—" Mr. Barnes paid Mr. Martelli the rent." Mr. Barnes said he did not pay it under any con. Wien whatever, and he took the rent without any reee ipt being asked for or given. u est then ia n it s ! addressed d t the ere j a u b r y r e , sai T d. h t e he A re tto w rn er e e y wane there a waiver of it ? and whether subsequently any fresh forfeiture had occurred ? But the question of waiver was the only question for the jury, and that de pended upon the conversation which took place Gene ral- thr e el w'esen this money was taken up. Mr. Barnes was de easing of inducing Mr. Martell' to take the money as !tent ; but Mr. Martelli, being in the law himself, was aware of the effect of doing so, and in addition be had the opinion of counsel, and a long correspondence had taken place between them, in which Mr. Martelli always leclined to accept the money as rent. Mr. Barnes had 4 ndeavoured to induce Mr. Martelli to accept the rent, ,ut without success, and then came the interview in niestion. Mr. Martelli had but one object, and that 1 vas to prevent the waiver of the forfeiture, and he took 'with him a letter to read to Mr. Barnes, in order that es'iere might be no dispute about the language used upon th at occasion, and be communioattd the contents to Mr, SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE, NOTICE TO MARINERS. ♦MENDED HINTS FOR STRANGERS MAKING KUREACHEI LIGHTHOUSE Knrrachee Lighthouse is on Manora Point, and lat. 24 deg. 47 min. 5 sec. north, long. 66 deg. 57 min. 13 sec. east, variation 11 min. 56 sec. easterly (1854).

In lat. 24 deg. 10 min. the coast is quite safe to approach anywhere to 5 fathoms, but off the Hujamree Banks vessels should not come under 10 fathoms, and may anchor off the port, with the lighthouse bearing frorr north-east to north-north-west, distance one to three quarters of a mile. There are strong north-easterly winds at times between November and March, awl about January there are some times gales from the west-south-westward, with a hea7y sea. _ . _ Manors► Lighthouse is fixed at an elevation of 119 feet above the mean level of the sea, and may be seen 15 to 16 miles off, high water at full and change 10h. 15m., rise and fall 9 feet, but the tides are ♦ery irregular. During the south-west monsoon vessels should make Cope Mouse (properly Ras Manrie), which is 18 miles to 4 west from Manora Point, arid if the weather is ♦ery bad, or the tide should not suit for crossing Kurrachee B e should maintain her position to windward, bearing iu mind the probability of the existence of a south-east cur rent. The coast of and between Ras Maarie and Manora Point is not safe to approach under 15 fathoms, and if Manora Point is visible, do not bring it to the southward of east; vessels should not anchor off the port, but if it is necessary the best position is with the fort bearing north-east by Borth to north-east by east, distance one to a half mile in seven or eight fathoms, and a long scope of cable should be veers 1 at once to insure holding on. To the southward of the port vessels should not come under eight fathoms, or bring Manors Point to the west ward of north, and under no circumstances, except the most urgent necessity, should vessels anchor on the coast to the :southward during this season. The church tower oa with the North Middle Rock leads you up to the bar, and the stump and old beacon in one over it, in 11} feet at low water, then pass the inner buoy about 50 to 70 yards to the westward, then steer for deep water point, or the ships at anchor. Off Manora Point flood sots to the eastward, aid ebbs to the westward to 1 knot per hour. . . Bound out in the south-west monsoon it would be advis able to work to the west-south-westward into about 15 fathoms or 10 fathoms to windward of Manors before stretching to the south, for although a vessel might lay along shore direct from the entrance of the harbour, she might get inte diffieulties by the wind falling light, and the tide setting her in towards the mouths of the rivers ; in passing the Ilujamree Banks, which extend from lat. 23 deg. 55 rain, to 24 deg. 10 min., and long. 67 deg. 14 min., she should net be in less than 20 fathoms, or more than two to four miles east of the meridian of Manors. The south-west monsoon (lees not blow strong generally en the coast of Saluda, the wind at time■ is variable, and generally so when it rains, which is mostly in July. I would caution all persons to be careful about anchoring anywhere on this coast if there is any sea on ; it would be much more advisable to keep under weigh. Vessels making the lighthouse should always endeavour to come within signal distance before dark, but if not able to do so, to keep standing off and on till daylight; they should endeavour to pick up the pilot-boat without delay if she displays a pilot tack, for when she does so it is to in timate that there is ne time to be lost to save the tide ; but in picking np the pilot ne vessel should run down to the eastward further than to bring the lighthouse to bear north. The pilot is usually in a European rigged boat, but if in a native boat, the pilot jack is hoisted. In the south-west monsoon no vessels which require to enter the harbour at once should draw more than 16 feet 6 inches for the spring tides, and 15 feet for the neap tides. _ _ ---- For the north-east monsoon vessels drawing 20 feet in the spring tides, and 17 feet 6 inches in the neap tides. For coming into the harbour vessels should have all the for. and aft sails that belong to them bent, and their haw sers on deck, with everything ready for laying out a kedge anther. ---- In consequence of the tides being irregular persons are apt to be out in working them ; therefore a red burgs() at the yard-arm of the flagstaff will signify that it is flowing, and when at the at a ethos d that it is high water ; a burgee at the yardarm will signify that the tide is ebbing, and when at the masthead that it is low water.

Ifr, 1854, to Professor Holloway : " Sir, I suffered for months with a very bad knee, and tried every remedy likely to benefit me without succssF. The joint was quite stiff, and se swollen that I became seriously alarmed as to whether I should ever regain the use of it. However, by the use of your ointment and pills the swelling was soon considerably reduced, an•l in two weeks was perfectly cured, which enabled nee to re sume my' work." —Sold by all vendors of medicine, and at Professor Holloway's establishments, 244, Strand, Loudon ; Maidoiviane, Now 'York.
