' Of o nic , nt . : „.„,,,,,,,, - _")4 SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. TIMES.—The struggle between the Board of Health and the formidable phalanx of City guardians (some 80 or 90 strong) whom they summoned before the Lord Mayor last Wednesday, to answer for neglect of sanitary orders, is virtually this—Shall the sanitary government of the country be for the future central or local ? Shall the management of the public health be confided to a single metropolitan board, constituted ad hoc, or remain, as heretofore, a branch of ordinary parochial administration ? The parochial party and their supporters protest against the cen tralization of sanitary control, first, as an unconstitu tional encroachment on the " free-born Briton's indefeasible right of local self-government ;" and, secondly, as an "impertinent and unwarrantable interference" with the sanitary operations already adopted by the parish officers—operations which, it is vehemently affirmed, have anticipated by their promptitude, and surpassed in their success, the dila tory measures of the Board of Health. The parish party are wrong at both points. The whole force of reason and the whole weight of facts are against them, as we will endeavour to show. In the first place, the interests affected by the jurisdiction to which they lay claim are not local, but collective. The management of burial-grounds, slaughter-houses, and manufactories leaving putrescent residua, con cerns the health, not merely of particular neigh bourhoods, but of whole cities, and of the entire kingdom. If the efflavia of St. Saviour's burial ground, for example, could be confined within the boundaries of St. Saviour's parish, so as to infect the air and the water of the recalcitrant rate-payers alone, they might perhaps fairly object to be hindered from cooking those necessary elements to their own taste—from working up their dead friends as an at mospheric condiment, and flavouring their water springs with infusion of mortality. So, again, if the Bermondsey cesspools and black tidal ditches stank only in Bermondsey nostrils, and fevered no other than Bermondsey blood, Bermondsey might perh a p s have a right to choose whether its rates should be laid out in abating these evils, or saved up for subse• quest expenditure on the widows and orphans of the cholera-smitten. In like manner the churchwardens of St. Bride's or St. Olave's, if backed by their parish ioners, have possibly a right to put 5,000 corpses into as many leaden retorts, called coffins, and to distil these corpses, through tapholes bored in the lead for that purpose, into carbonic acid (the choke damp of miners), sulphuretted and phosphuretted hydrogen (the rotten egg gases), and. other effluvia of the same sort; provided always they can show that these inevitable residua of the intramural burial trade fall exclusively to the share of those who enjoy the profits of the business. Every Briton is cock on his own dunghill, no doubt ; but on this indispensable condition—that his dunghill offend no one else's nose. If, then, it appear that the burial-traders poison their neighbours as well as themselves, and that parochial economists, to save themselves a sewer rate, saddle the whole community with a costly epidemic (costly, alas ! in more senses than one), it is clear that these sticklers for f ree d om p rac ti se the very despotism of which they complaim, and trespass . on the rights of other's while denouncing the infringement of their own ; and when, therefore, on looking in any school. boy's chymical catechism to the chapter on the diffu sion of gases, we find it a positive law of nature that each gas acts like a vacuum to the others, and that consequently the volatile poisons which issue from the leaden alembics of each London graveyard radiate by an unresisted force of expansion throughout the whole metropolitan atmosphere, we arrive at a dire ct scientific refutation of the pretended local rights set up, and find parochial claims outweighed by collective rights of paramount importance. So much for the infringement of local rights and privileges imputed to the Board of Health. The charge is not merely untrue—it is the diametrical opposite of the truth. The accusers are themselves the culprits; and the Board of Health are but resist. in,;, by the means which the law places at their dis pesal, and with the general approbation of the com munity, the unjustifiable encroachments of parochial trespassers on the lives and liberties of the public at large. But the parish party join issue with the Cen t rat Board on the practical question itself. " The measures," they say, " which we have taken to pre vent epidemics, or to meet them when they come, have been bett er t h an yours—more vigorous, more timely, more prudent, more efficacious, and, above all, less exoensive. You tell us to distribute monitory handbills; we have done it already. You bid us ap• point house t house inspectors ; we have a sufficient medical staff as it is. You order us to empty our cesspools, to close oar graveyards, to flush our sewers, and to cleanse our alleys. All this, so far as we think it necessary ani practicable, we have done, and we refuse, at your bidding, to de more. The mar t slity in our districts is not above a fair average, nor beyond what might be reasonably expected during an epidemic. We are men of business, better acquainted than you with the necessities of our own poor, and better qualified to provide for their relief. You, who pretend to be sanitary reformers, do in reality more harm than good. Your orders are as insolent in form as th-ey are frivolous in substance. We repel your accusations—we despise your censure— we deny your authority—and we set you at defiance. Do your worst." Such is the language of the parish party. Many simples of it have appeared in our columns in the shape of letters from the boards of guardians. Let us , make allowanc e f oe it s not, perhaps, unnatural venemence ; and try, by the test of facts, the alleged forecast, energy, and skill displayed by the parochial officers in their seni.ary operations. In April, 1847, .hen an epidemic typhus broke out, and ravaged the country with rapidly increasing violence, till at last, in the autumn, it produced for several weeks fourfold the ordioary mortality, what measures of sanitary reform were adopted by the parish officers ? What steps did they take to purge the air of those exhala tions 'a hich are the recognised vehicle of typhoid poison ? When, in the eleven weeks from November 20, 18-17, to February 5, 1848, there died in London upwards of 6,000 persons above the aver,ge number —an excess greater than the entire mortality produced by pestilential cholera during the whole 21 weeks of its prevalence in 1832—what were the sanitary opera tions of the parish officers? What lesson did they learn from this frightful mortality ? What steps did they take to secure us against its return ? When the influenza—that forecast shadow of pestilence, which preceded the black death in the fourteenth century, the great plague of London in the seven teenth, and the first terrible invasion of cholera in our own day—appeared with terrible significance two autumns since, and slew in a single month (Decem ber) 1,000 of the inhabitants of London, where were the vaunted energy and sanitary skill of the parochial officers ? When, in the following spring, the Asiatic pestilence itself, following its sure precursor, Caine travelling rapidly towards us across the continent, pursuing its old track, haunting its old lairs—enter ing even, in many places, the very same houses which it attacked before—where were our parochial strategists ?—what scheme of operations did they plan while there was yet time to keep the destroyer from our shores, or to defeat and expel him when he came ? The parochial officers did nothing—abso lutely nothing. They left the graveyards festering—the cesspools seething—the barrels of blood steaming in the undergound shambles—the great mounds of scutch putrefying in the Bermondsey glue-yards. They left us all—the poor in his squalor, and the rich in his fancied security—to be smitten unawares. And when at last it came, and the people were perishing by thousands, and the medical officer urged, month after month, on the parochial authorities that the plague could only be combated in the homes of the poor, by an organized army of preventive in spectors, what did the parochial authorities do ? They rejected the medical officer's counsel—they scouted his warnings—they even mutilated his reports; and only in the 15th week of a mortality unparalled for two centuries, did they consent to the nomination of the domiciliary inspectors—who, in their very first round, discovered the corpses of six persons dead without medical aid. Such has b een the c isciuct of the men who claim to be entrusted with the sanitary government of the country. Do they deeerre our coefidence ? Shall we support them in their factious resistance to the lawful authority of the Board of Health ? 1rame n .,, m . ,.,. ~...~~ THE SUN,, FRANCE. The following is the speech delivered by M. Dupin, the President of the Legislative Assembly, a few days since before the Agricultural Society of the arron dissement of Clancey in the Nievre, then assembled at Lorme : " Gentlemen, and dear Fellow-citizens,—The meeting of last year opened under the most painful auspices. At that period, the scarcity of cash, the sudden extinc tion of credit, the cessation of labour, the decrease of the price of cattle, the revolutionary tax of the 45 centimes, all the misfortunes of the time weighed on agriculture. Now the state of things has improved; the Government established by the Constitu tion works with regularity; confidence revives; the trade of your fairs has resumed its activity, and the President of the Republic, raised and supported by six millions of votes, receives from that popular election, which is your work, the strength, as he derives from his personal character the firm will, to maintain order at the same time as liberty. All the interests of the land, of commerce, and of civil transac tions are placed under the protection of a magistracy, whose permanency, vainly threatened during the stormy days we have passed through, has just been newly con. secreted for the honour of justice, and the security of citizens. From all parts the public wishes call for and seek stability. But, after so many vicissitudes, it is more particularly useful to make mature reflections on the past. I appeal to the good sense of all, and of those in particular whose simplicity renders them more easy to be deceived, but whose natural good lath would bring them to the side of truth, when it is presented to them. Why were we in such distress last year? Why are we better no e , ? On what condition may our future state more improve? In this Agricultural Society of the Morvand, on this rough soil, confided to the culture of a bold and persevering people, for a long time shut up in th e m id st o f woo d s, an d b ut littl ad vanced in the paths of civilization, in this chef-lieu of granite, I wish to speak opeuly and frankly, not for those who are the nearest to me on the platform, but for those who stead before us, to whom I say approach,' for those are the labourers whom I particularly wish to see nearest to me, and by whom I most desire to be well understood. Children of the Morvand, labourers, you who have preserved your religious principles, who still bend your knees morning and evening to pray to the Creator, and who repeat in common those precepts of eternal wisdom. " Un seul Dieu to adore'ras, Tes Pere et mil .e hon 'rents, Bien d'autrui to ne prendras," bo assured, that whatever revolutions may take place there will always be two kinds of people in the world: —the honest and the dishonest—tle industrious and the idle—the economical and the spendthrift. w If f po (i dike! commotions appear for an instant to confound ou t n he all ; if there be critical moments in h worst citizens appear to have the upper the every l state of things; chimeras give place to re hand, events and lit y y tation becomes conformabl t e o h actions er and their consequences soon throw light is o one's reputation that God has wished in a ll eternal order which and things resumes its sovereign away. As by the s id e of your bees you hear the buzzing of drones, who anxi o usly seek to devour the honey which they know not how to produce, so, in political agitations, you see audacious firebrands endeavour to take possession of every em ployment at the risk of losing what they are either in capable or unworthy of governing ; men who, ac cording to the energetic expression of a Minister of the Republic, are capable of nothing at the bead of those who are capable of everything. You see a crowd of men ruined either by their fault or by their vices, and sometimes also compromised by their crimes, or already on the point of being so, who wish to recover themselves by disturbance, and to fish in the waters which they have themselves troubled.—(General marks of assent.) Throw your eyes around you : in every town, in every hamlet, observe those who are always the first to declaim against all kinds of autho rity; to cause assemblages, to form clubs, to spread alarming reports, to disseminate false doctrines, to hold out foolish hopes, to calumniate the best citizens, and to excite, by every means, even the most atrocious and the most odious, to the overthrow of society; and consider whether there are not always and everywhere individuals whose ruin was certain, and who were, according to one of your familiar expressions, bien pros de lours pia.:es;' or, to :u,e the words of a great poet— ' Un tas d'hommes perdus de dettes et de crimes, QlO pressent de nss lois les ordres legitimes; Et qui, c?eiesf orant de les plus 6viter, Si tout n'est renverlo, no saurasent sub.sister,' of people who, not having been able to gain or preserve a patrimony, would very willingly partake of that of their 'edustrious And economical neighbours, without reflect ing that the latter would not be in a humour to allow themselves to be despoiled, but would vigorously defend themselves against robbery and spoliation. Such are the prircipal apostles of Communism ! Such are the men whom the now sectarians employ to propagate their doctrines! doctrines which at hen well analysed are found to lead to the brutalising of the human race, by the destruction of all the conditions of liberty, honour, and morality, on which Providence has caused civil society to repose. And, nevertheless, it is by the aid of such auxiliaries and of such matins that public peace has' been -disturbed, labour interrupted, riots excited, and civil war lighted up! The workmen of the towns and of the country are induced to be lieve that a crowd of benefits would result for them from such a perturbation, whereas the only result .the compl.•to rain of some, the embarrassment of others, and the i-ijury of all! I will here to call to your recollection what I said o❑ the subjeA in the in• troluction to a little work which I recently published on agricultural soci«:tics. I wish to address myself to your interest, and to lay it el..arly before you. When once• the rioters have succeeded in exciting civil war in Paris, what are the results? The foreigners who had arrived from all the countries of Europe, to enjoy the pleasures and contemplate the wonders of our civi• lization, hasten to quit, and the furnished hovels and lodging-houses are deserted. The rich, those who are not chained by any public function or duty to Paris, leave their hotels and give up their apartniunts, and go elsewhere ti seek for the peace and security which are no longer to be had in the French capital. What then happens? Con;umption diminishes, credit is restrained, the tradesman can no longer d'spose of his goods, and work of every kind is interrupted. Such is the ininv diato effect of disturbances in Paris upon Paris." M. Dupin then drew an animated picture of the effect produced upon the departments by the diminution of the demand for agricultural produce. Having done this, in a way admirably adapted to the intelligence of• his hearers, he added " Have your orators of the clubs and public-houses told you all this? No, they have taken good care not to do sr.. But experience has taught it to you. Do not, !het), I entr,at, forget the injury inflicted on you by the imeules of 1818, and which the genius of k'vil a:tempted to renew in 184?. 'II faut qu3 vela finisse,' said the President of the Republic with so much truth. It is time for the wicked to tremble, and the good to take confidence. And since he said this the Government has proceeded with vigour in that course, with the National Assembly and with the law ac its authority." GENERAL BEM. The following is the description of the personal appearance of General Bern—as given by the Austrian authorities " Karl Beat, General or the Insurgents, ago from 50 to 55, middle height, thin, has a round face, brown and ruddy complexion, low forehead, hair mixed with grey, grey eyebrows, nose pointed and aquiline, broad mouth, round chin, and a mou,tache. He speaks Polish, French, and German ; has a slii4ht stoop. It is believed he has the sear of a gun shot woclud in the face, received in the engagement before Pesth." THE HUNGARIAN CROWN. The Hungarian crown, it is generally believed, Kossuth has taken with him in his flight ; if so, it has for a second time crossed the frontiers of Turkey. The past history of this crown is a curious one, and as full of vicissitudes as the lives of some of those who have worn it. The Magyars attach a supersti tious value to the relic of their ancient monarchy; there is a legend that it was wrought by the hands of angels for St. Stephan, who was crowned in it iri 1001; history, with a more limited faith, records that it was sent as a present to Stephan by Pope Sylvester the Second. In 1072 Duke Geisa received from the Greek Emperor a golden circlet or royal band for his blow ; when he was afterwards made King of nun gary, he joined this circlet to the diadem, so that the crown is really composed of two kingly emblems united. When the race of the Arpads became extinct, in 1301, there was a double election to the vacant throne; one party chose Robert of Anjou and Naples, the other Wenzel, the younger, of Bohemia. The cause of the latter did not prosper, and his affairs were taking an unfortunate turn, when his father, WenzPl, King of Bohemia, marched an army to Ofen, and carried off his son and the crown with him to 'regale. The Hungarians then definitively elected Otto of Bavaria, and old Wenzel, for rettions not stated, gave up the crown to him. Otto, to take posses.. sion of his kingdom, had to ride incognito through Austria, carrying the crown as a " property" with him. It was packed in a little cask, and hung at the saddle-bow of a German Graf, who discovered one morning at daybreak that he had lost his precious charge during the night. The party had then arrived at Fischerment, below Vienna, wh e r e th ey were about to cross the Donau ; they retraced their steps, and, by great good luck, found cask and crown again. In 1307, Otto went to Siebenhurgsn, on a visit to the Waywode Ladislas, intending to win him over to his party. He must have failed signally in his at tempt, for the old Way wode seized the crown, and made the king a prisoner. After some time, he saw fit to let Otto go, but kept firm possession of the diadem for three years. In 1310, on threats of war and extermination, he gave it up. For more than a century after this its history is a blank; but in 1439, on the death of the Emperor Albrecht IV., there was again a double election, the two rivals being Wladislaw, of Poland, and Ladislas, the infant son of Albrecht. The Empress resolved to have the child crowned, and for that purpose the crown was stolen from the Castle of WisseArad, by one of her maids of honour, who undertook the task, and succeeded. In 1441 the Em press made a l ess di gn i f i ed use of it she pledged it to the Emperor Frederick IV. for 2,000 gulden. It was re d eemed by Mathias Corvinus, and taken back to Wissegr a d ; f rom hence, after the battle i of Mohac, it was again stolen, and again by a woman, in order to crown John Zapoly a . Zspolya save it in LONDON, charge to Preny, who delivered it up to Ferdinand I.; he was crowned with it in 1527, and then it fell into the bands of the Turks. As Solyman returned from the siege of Vienna, he publicly exhibited the crown to his army in Ofen, but told his soldiers that it was that of the renowned Persian ruler Nushiryan : he then sent it back to his protege Zapolya, on whose death it was again given up by his widow to the Emperor Ferdinand. Rudolph 11. sent the crown to Prague; Mathias 11. brought it back to Pre3burg, where, in 1619, it was seized by Bethlem Gabor ; on the conclusion. of the peace of Nikolsburger, he gave it up to Ferdinand 11. The Emperor Joseph had it brought to Vienna ; Leopold sent it again to Hungary, where it remained till the taking of Pesth by Win dischgratz, when it was removed by Kossuth, and has ever since been kept at the seat of the Hungarian Government; that being broken up and dispersed, the crown has resumed its wanderings. As to what has become of it there are many rumours; it is said to be buried in a secret place. According to others Kossuth has it in his personal possessian, and by this time the diadem, that was the gift of a Pope to a saint, has been stripped of its jewels to go as bribes to the Mahommedan, and the gold has terminated an almost sacred existence of eight centuries as ignominiously as a mere piece of stolen plate in the milting pot of a Jew !—Advertiser. HOP INTELLIGENCE BOROUGU, SEPT. 24.—We have a good supply of the new growth of hops at market ; as yet they meet with a steady sale at the undermentioned currency:— New Kent Pockets £G 63. to £8 Bs. Ditto Goldings .......• . 9 Os. to 10 10s. Ditto low and mouldy, unsaleable. Ditto Sussex Pockets . 5 123. to 7 7s. The picking is drawing to a close. Generally they come down half short of what they were laid at at the commencement. rhe duty is lowering; the pre sent estimate is from 80,0001. to 85,000/. MAIDSTONE.—The picking in this neighbourhood . is nearly closed, and we h ave now an oppor t un ity o f ascertaining what the yield the crop is likely to be. In nineteen cases out of twenty, the - hops have come down short of expectation, varying from one-fourth to one-third short, and in some instances they have come down even half short. It is the general opinion here that the duty must come down considerably. To pay two- fifths of last year's duty (that is, about 84,0001.) there must be two fifths of last year's crop some where. It certainly Is not to be found in Kent. The Sussex planters are told that Kent will produce this, whilst the Kent men fear that it will be found in Sussex. Our accounts from all quarters agree that where there are hops they have fallen short. Many grounds, which last year produced heavily, now pro duce none; few produce equal to last year's growth; and scarcely any are to be heard of which exceeds it. It must be recollected that the estimate which has thus failed to be realised, is not founded upon what the grounds produced last year, but on appearances of the grounds before picking.; YALDING AND .HUNTON.—ThiS week will finish picking. Some fine samples will be obtained, but will come far short in quantity of what was at first anticipated. EAST MALLINGMOSt of the planters have done picking, and all will finish in a few days. 'What was anticipated last week is fully realised, for in many grounds they come down half, and in all quite one third short of the number of bushels that reasonable persons expected. The hops are good in colour and quality. BRENCULET.—Picking is now nearly brought to a close, and it is quite certain we shall not realise 4 cwt. per acre, on an average. The quality is good. HORSMONDEN.—Our hops come very short of ex pectation, but some amend is made in quality, which is unusually fine. Our parish will produce many splendid samples. (FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)—" Wolf" has been cried sometimes in this parish, but there is no mistake this year, as the hops . are all picked to about seven acres, averaging only a trifle over two-thirds what they were set at. Planters who have really fine choice samples, of any country, if they have nerve, will be sure to obtain good prices, there not being more than one-fourth of supply equal to the demand for that class of hops. GOUDIIURST.—Our hops throughout the parish will come one-third short of expectation previous to their picking, and in point of quality they will be superior to any for several years past. The colour, almost without exception, is splendid. IGUTIIAM AND SEAL. Several planters have finished picking, but the general complaint is that they come very short, and some nearly half less than they were set at previous to picking. eItA.NDROOK.—The hops come down much short of expectation, with the exception of a few favourites, which have even exceeded their estimate. There seems to be a strong impression that the duty will he under 80,0001. So much difference of opinion, however, prevails that while some are against 70,0001., oth.--rs are in tavour of nearly 100,000/. ! The state of the hops seems to deny all calculation as regards the duty. ORPINGTON.—Joseph Jackson, Esq., has finished hop picking, his being the only ground in the parish which has been picked. The quantity is 16a. lr. 15p. off twenty acres, being a little over 911bs. per acre. A few days before the commencement of picking, they were laid by experienced gentlemen at from two to three tons. EPENBRIDGE —The hops in this parish and neigh bourhood come down very short in quantity—about half a cwt. per acre, but the quality is first-rate. The growers anticipate a good price. HURSTGREEN —The hops come down short of what was expected before picking commenced, and require between 70 and 80 bushels to the cwt.-2lfaidstone Gazette of this day.

HULL, SEPr. 25. Messrs. Taylor and Bright's circular states,—We have had a very moderate supply of wheat from abroad during the past week, and the market has been very firm, with is advance on best runs of tic sh red foreign. Of other articles arrivals are to a fair extent, and of barley large; for malting qualities the demand is exceedingly languid, and even for the finer descriptions of Said h.ss money has had to be taken, while, on the contrary, for grinding the demand continues great, and at full prices. There was only a moderate show of English wheat at our this day's market, and, notwithstanding the dulness yesterday in !Mark-lane, our farmers wore quite indis posed to make any concession upon the rates current last week, and such were generally paid for best descriptions. More samples of new wheat shown, and condition goad; such was pretty free sale at 40s to 433 per quarter. The weights run from 621 b to 641 b per bushel. Very little foreign wheat offering, and of fine quality the st ,, cks ate now unimportant; we make no alteration in our cur rency, but the market is very firm. The remarks made above as to barley are fully confimed by the operations of to-day; malting qualities quite neglected; grinding free sale at full prices, and the market g, tting well cleared of late arrivals. A good consumptive demand for oats, as well as good beans, at our quotations, but pens are only saleable at low rates for feeding purposes. For boilers we have no present sale. Indian corn is selling at 283 4801 b, The linseed market is well supported and cakes are not quite so good to buy. Our quotations for rapeseed, are quite n: urinal, there being no stocks.

Tilll PRICE OF BEER.—While people are talking about a reduction in the price of beer in 1849, it may not be uninteresting to many of our readers to know what was the price in 1266, and how it was regulated. By the " Statute of the Pillory and Tumbrel, and of the Assize of BreA and Ale," made in the reign of Henry 111., it is enacted that " when a quarter of barley is sold for 21., then four quarts of ale shall be sold for Id.; and so from h ence f orth the prices shall increase an de crease." At this rate brewers ought only to pay 245. per quarter for barley while they sell their fourpenny beer at 1.. per gallon..-Mark-lane Express. The Gazette of last night contains a notification that the Privy Council have renewed, for a further pe riod of six months, from the 28th instant, the enforce ment of the proviiions of the Act of the 11th and 12th Vict., "for the more speedy removal of certain nui sances, and the prevention of contagious and epidemic diseases."

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 25.—The royal yacht Victoria and Albert was brought down to her service mooring to day, to be completed for the reception of her Majesty and the Court on Friday night. The Fairy royal yacht was hauled upon the graving slip alongside the dockyard last night, to be in readi ness for inspection early this morning by the Admiral Superintendent Prescott, and dockyard staff; two auti•adhesive substances, compositions, hiving been put on the iron bottom three months since, the rela tive discoveries of Professor Hay, the eh) mica' assistant to the master shipwright, and Mr. Peacock, a gentleman amateur in similar pursuits. A three months' test having been deemed sufficient to discover the relative merits of, the applications, today the ex periment was officially reported upon, when the result showed one side (the port) of the vessel perfectly clean and free from all impeding rubbish; and the starboard side foul, with weeds and grass half a foot in length, presenting the appearance of a fine sloping field of grass—showing, in a light never before ez hibited, the peculiar and striking superiority of the chymical assistant's invention over that of Mr. For cock. The Elfin royal dispatch yacht, Master Commander Babiston, having received a figure head and cutwater , which has considerably imprhved her outward appear' ance, was taken out last night for trial, prior to being reported in readiness for the royal service. Commander Ilewlett, of the Excellent, -is, w e believe, progressing favourably towards convalescenc e under the assiduous treatment of Dr. Nutt. Wind S.E., light breezes and fine weather. MILITARY. Captain Levinge's company of the Royal Artillery, at Woolwich, will relieve Captain Henderson s, at Portsmouth, on the 3d proximo, the latter returning to Woolwich. A detachment—of Lieutenant Paterson, 1 ensign , 2 sergeants, and 50 rank an d fil e o f th e 42d High landers—will embark at Deptford on the 29th instant in the Pestonjee Bomanjee transport, as a guard over 200 male convicts from Queenstown to Bermuda. WooLwicif, SEPT. 25.—The Minx steam-n 3 5% fitted with a high- pressure engine of 10 horsepower, an" her screw propeller abaft the rudder, went down the river yesterday, on an experimental trial, under at charge of Lieutenant Robertson, with Mr. Casey, of Captain Austin's branch of the steam department, and Mr. Taplin, of the factory department at Woolwich Dockyard. The Minx ran the measured mile four times, and the average speed attained was about four and three-quarter knots per hour, equal to the speed obtained when the screw-propeller was fitted in the dead wood of the stern, where the rudder is now placed. The n ex t trial of the Minx is to be made with a disc engine, but no material advantage appears to be gained by having the propeller abaft the rudder, though it is to many objections, as it cannot in that position be unshipped, and owing to its project' ing considerably below the bottom of the keel, it c acts the risk of being easily broken when the draught •t water is barely sufficient for the vessel. It is also inapplicable to large vessels, as the flanges of the pro peller would extend several feet below the keel when revolving, and the weight of large screws give a leverage when placed so far astern of the vessel that it would be difficult to support them. The Inflexible steam-sloop, Commander Hoseason, is ordered to be paid off here on Friday next. A number of the crew of the Fisgard are employed at present upon her, upwards of 40 of her crew having been left at Portsmouth suffering from dysentery and other complaints incident to their return from a warm climate. Four men of the crew were taken to the Marine Hospital here to-day, two of them owing to lameness. The Terrible-steam frigate, Captain Ramsey, is to be paid off on Thursday, and will be again commis sioned almost immediately. ' The Bee lighter has been raised and taken along. side the wharf wall, and the spare stores taken out of her. The labourers are now employed in pumping out the water while the tide is low, and she will soon be put to rights without much loss, the materials being got out uninjured. The Archer steam-sloop is to have her screw-pro peller reduced from 11 feet 6 inches, its present diameter, to 10 feet in diameter, and she will be again tried down the river in the latter part of the present or early in the ensuing week. CHATHAM, SEPT. 25.—The Calypso, 20 guns, Captain Henry J. Worth, was paid off into ordinary on Monday, the 24 . h. Neither her bulk-heads nor any of her internal fittings are disturbed. Owing to the protracted illness of Ciptain Worth, that officer was taken yesterday to Melville Hospital. Tha Ma rines, consisting of 1 sergeant, 1 corporal, 1 drummer, and 13 private;, joined the Chatham division the same afternoon, and 5 privates proceed to Portsmouth. Lieutenant George Webb, the officer in command, belonging to the Woolwich division, proceeds to join his head-quarters. The Wolverine, 16 guns, was commissioned this morning, by Lieutenant Christie hoisting the pen dant; and Commander Maxwell Falcon, appointed to this ship, has also arrived, and proceeded on board this day. Commander Falcon was promoted from First Lieutenant as a reward for his conduct when in command of a breaching battery, and in storming the stronghold of the rebels at New Zealand, with a party of seamen and marines from the Castor, 36. A party of the Royal Artillery, of the 11th battalion, consisting of 27 men, in charge of Sergeant Barfitt, proceeded this m( rniug to Tilbury Fort, to mount some new guns, &c. INDEPENDENCE IN CONTENTMENT. — Much as we imagine ourselves sup,:rior in philos.pby and attainments to our continental neighbours, we might learn from them a useful lesson—that of being contented with less money, and devoting more time to the cultivation of all that mikes lite vveith living for. It was hoped that when railroads weme muck, so much tivie would be saved in travel, as to give • great, r leisure to the ordinary affairs of life, but the anticipation has not been realised. The lever has grow❑ with what it leads on. Truly, the demon of unrest has entered into us, and we rush down the steep places to draw ourselves in a sea, of troubles.—FEETlNA LENTE.--Builder.
