An Entr .nce ai'o from Maiden lane. When the Court assembled on Thursday last specially to take into consideration the question of appointing a Committee on the subject of the purchase of land in Ireland, it was agreed to that the aldermen present, and the aldermen not present, who might be Members of Parliament, should be members of such Committee. The names of several aldermen accordingly appeared upon the record of the Court's proceedings. Mr. IL LOWMAN TAYLOR, when the minutes of the last Court were read by Mr. Woodthorpe, the clerk of the Court, complained of what he considered to be an inaccuracy in the record of the names of the alder men, inasmuch as the names of lour aldermen who were sot present when the Committee was consti tuted were upon the list, He objected to what he consi dered to be in that instance a violation of the principle that no person who was not present at the time of the appointment of a Committee should be eligible as a mem btr of it, and he moved that the names of the four alder men be struck off the list. 0 - 31 0 0 -24 6 ° rs 3 3 . 0• a ca ett DIRECTORS 0-33 0 0-33 0 0 - 31 0 William a dams, Esq.

HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. -By this plan only one-half of the premiums, with interest of the retained halves, is required to be p .id for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form a deduction from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As surance may be relinquished at any time without payment of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate, and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacral 'e WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits. Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a specified age, or it their death, whichever shall first occur.

E3LAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS. Copy of a letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, ChemLst, Monk Bar, York, " To Mr. Thomas Prout, 1 ' 14th June, 1847 " Sra,--Having suffered most dreadfully for the last six years from repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best medical advic' I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to try a box Blair's Gout and Rheumatic rills. When I commenced taking them, which was in the afternoon, my feet and elbows were very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense agony. I had that night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke In the morning comparatively free from pain ; and before I hail finished the box. I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely removed the gout, but have also very mtich improved my general health I have since recommended them to four individuals, who have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and ey all peak highly of the benefit they have received front them. if you think my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your xonderful medicine, ou are at perfect liberty to publish it. " I am, S:r, yours respectfully, " J. J. WILSON." The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma tism, lumbago, sciatica, and all analogous complaints, speedy and certain relief.

FINANCIAL REFORM REDUCTION OF EXPENDITURE. In our advocacy of a Financial Reform, it will be seen that we do not seek to confer a privilege upon one class, at the expense of an other; but in our transactions, to apply principles of such sterling value and universal import as mast prove, in the fullest sense of the term, equally advantageous to all. We seek, in fact, to reduce, not the income, but the expenditure, of every individual. How this may be effected the following outline of our novel, yet well appreciated business system, will readily show. POSSESSING L IRGE ESTABLISHMENTS In most of the principal towns in Great Britain, our c incentrated purchases are necessarily very extensive ; from this cause we are enabled to obtain materials direct from the manufacturers, for cash, at prices cousiderably lower than the average. Our garments are de signed and cut by talented artists, and manufactured by experienced workmen ; our profits are calculated at a nominal per-centage upon original cost, and ►he price is marked on every garment, in plain from which no deviation is alloy ed. These facts, together with the accommodation afforded by the exchange of garments not approved after purchase, afford advantages to our patrons such as have been seldom, if ever, elsewhere presented, enabli , g them to effect a reduction in their expenditure, at least in the item "Clothing," of not less than 40 per cent., as the following brief price list will testify to some extent : DEAD!

The following circumstance has given rise to a good deal of remark during thy past week:—ln the early part of last week Mr. T. P. Wilhams, M.P., of 41, Berke ley-square, was brought to Marlborough-street court, charged on the police-sheet with having made an indecent exiosure the over eight in Beniinek-street. Mr. Williams, it appeared, was-seen about eleven at night in the midile of Bentittek•street, Oxford-street, a public thoreughfaro, committing a nuisance. A female who lived in the street, reeling hers.elf ire•ulred by the t xpo sure. which she was eel:lapelled to witnes, c.l.ect the nui,ance committer a blackguard and aided that she a good mind to give him in char g e to the police. A tradesman, nom( d B mid vin, residing in R-gent-street, having also witnessed the conduct of Mr. Williams, went up to him and desired him to choose a more retired position, there being a wall or gateway near, by which a public tziaisure might be avoided. It is alleged that Mr Williams would not comply with the decent re quest, upon which Mr. Baldwin, acting, as he said, on public ground:, gave him into custody. Mr. Williams was taken to Vine•street station house, and the charge against him was stated by Mr. Baldwin to Inspector Wll,ll, the officer on duty. ar. Williams gave no con• tradietion to Mr. Baldwiu's statement, and refused to give his name or address, or to state anything further than that he was " a gentleman." The inspector having heard the statement of Mr. Baldwin, that a female had been shocked at the exposure she had witnessed, that Mr. Baldwin had made a request, in vain, for the inde cency to cease, as he and other inspectors have been accustomed to do in all similar cases, booked the charge, and detained the alleged offender. The detention may be attributed to the circumstance of the refusal on the part of Mr. Williams to give his name and address. Had he given reliable infermation to the inspector that he was a gentleman, there can be doubt that the ordinary course would have been taken as in cases where per sons of respectability are concerned the de , tendant's own bail would have been accepted for his appearance at the police-court the following morn tug. The inspector, however, did not gam any clue to the real s t a ti on o f hi s p r i soner un til e ight or nine in the morning, when the cave was heard by Mr. Hardwick, at Marlborough -street Police-court. Mr. Baldwin repeated the evidence he gave at the stAtion house, and proved that an exposure was witnessed by himself, tied also by a female, who had appealed toltru en the subject. The d , lence of Mr. Williams was, that he had intended to visit one of the theatres, in Ox lord-street; that finding there was no performance that night, he waked down some of the bye•streets until he came to Bentinck-street. He declared he had no inten tion to insult any one. Mr. Hardwick, who heard the case at full length, did not appear to doubt for a mo ment that an outrage on public decency had been com mitted, but as the " intent" was not fully made out, and as Mr. Williams had been locked up in the station house all eight, be considered that sufficient punishment hart been sustained, and discharged the defendant with a caution to be more reserved in 'his proceedings for the future.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTII, MONDAY —The Royal yachts Victoria and Albert and Fairy, Captain Lord Adolphus Fitzcla rence, went down to Cowes this morning to await her Majesty's pleasure. Extract of a letter from the Naiad store-ship, dated Callao, May 13:—" The Gorgan steam• sloop, Comman der Poynter, arrived here en the 11th ult., and was to have taken the May rival to Valparaiso, but contradictory orders arrived by the Valparaiso mail, on account of the Chatrpion being detained at Cubija tor the protection of British interests, there being a revolution in Bolivia. Peru it: also rather unsettled, so much so that the Ad miral thinks it necessary to keep a man•of-war here, so the Gorgan retnains at Callao with her topmasts aitd yards struck, awaiting orders to be relieved by some other vessel." _ _ Extract of a letter from the Inconstant, 36, Captain Sheppard, dated San Francibco, Cali ornia, April 16:— `• We arrived here this attern. , on, all well. We left Callao on the 13th of March, remain here a few days. proceed to Vancouver's Island, remain there a short time, then return here on our way to Valparaiso, where we shall arrive about the middle of September, if all goes well. Several of our men have 'run for the gold regions." FOOT RACES AT CARLISLE. — Two foot races, one of half a mile, and the otter of a mile, came off, the first on Tuesday and the later on 'Thursday, on the race ground at Carlisle. There was on each occasion a vast concourse of spectators present. For the half-mile race 16 entered, but 13 only came to the post. As soon as all declared themselves ready, a pistol was fired, and a capi tal start effected, Deane and Conway (the favourite) getting off together. Before a third of the distance was covered, several gave in. On entering the distance it was " tellows to mend" with s.veral of the others en gaged, Martin and Collett) , still leading, with G. Hope about six yards in the rear. On entering the straight run, Hope passed Martin, challenged Conway, and ran in a gallant winner by two yards and a halt; Conway second, J. Martin third, and Coedited fourth. Several of Conway's friends say it was a " sell," and that Con way might have won it he liked. For the mile race on Thursday nine started. They left the scratch in good .tyle, G. Hope with a slight lead, which he maintained to the distance ; here Conway headed him, and ran in au easy winner by eight yards, dope woad, 'Lardy third, tho Lea bectela of LAMBETH REGATTA.

PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY.—Portsmouth Harbour Re gatta wilt take place on Wednesday and Thursday next, under the distinguished patronage of the Mayor of Portsmouth, the Lieutenant-Governor, Lord Fre derick Fitsclarence ; the naval Commander-in-Chief, Admiral the Hon. Sir Bladen Capel ; the Admiral Su perintendent, H. Prescott, C.B. ; and other influential pi rsonages. Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Albert have liberally given 2/ guineas towards the funds of the regatta. We have heard from good authority that her Majesty has (through the usual channel) intimated to the ' chairman of the managing committee, that it is her intention to honour the regatta with her pre sence on Thursday next. There is no doubt but that her Majesty has graciously come to this resolution in consequence of the lively interest she takes in the welfare of a deserving and loyal set of men, the Portsmouth waterwen, for whose advantage the regatta has been principally got up. Her august presence will not only aford much gratification, but will be of infi- nite advantage to those well conducted men, who are chiefly composed of old men-of-war's men. Her Ma ' j( sty's kindness and condescension will be fully appre ciated by them, as well as by the Portsmouth people generally, and we can firmly assert she will be received with the most heartfelt and grateful enthusiasm, although her loyal subjects have no other way - of demonstrating their devotion, and the high estimation they have of the :honour of her Majesty's presence, than by the loud and vociferous (but no less honest) old English cheer. Her Majesty, Prince Albert, and the Royal children will, it is said, come up from Osborne on Thursday next in the Fairy, The Prince will land at Gosport, and proceed by the South-Western Railway to Win chester, to present new colours to the 23d Regiment. The Queen wilt await at Portsmouth to witness the regatta; and on Prince Albert's return from Winchtster the august party will again return to Osborne. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sits,—The prevalence of disease at the present mo ment has induced me to write to you relative to a fact that came under my own notice in the cell at the Police-court, Kennington-lane, where Mr. Norton is the sitting functionary. The circumstance in reference, I trust, will prove iu its exposure a benefit to humanity, for truly out of evil sometimes arises a benefit; but to the fact at issue. I was, owing to a family feud, placed in durance vile for three hours, or nearly so, and the effluvia arising from the cell in gut satin was sufficient to produce baneful effects on the strongest constitution; for the want of proper ventilation and cleanliness in a crowded cell, with the immediate proximity of a neces sary convenience without water, which it is to be hoped wilt meet groper attention from the proper quarter in a sanitary improvement at an important period. I am, Sir, yours, faithfully, VERITAS VINCIT. Nine Elms, Vauxhall. STEAM-BOAT TRAVELLING ON ividuals stationed TLIII Aceordirg to the returns made by ind for that sp. cifie purpose at the different steam-boat piers between Chelsea and London -bridge, it was ascertained that 324,000 persons landed and embarked from the steam-vessels plying between those places slutin baby hot. Mr. WIRE (to the Town Clerk)—ls there on the list the name of any member who was not present in the Court on that day ? The TOWN CLERK—Certainly not. Mr. LOTT observed that if Aldermen who were not present upon the formation of a committee were to be i elected, the principle of the established rule which re ferred to Aldermen as well as to commoners was totally custom saidhe a destroyed. Why, he asked, should the Aldermen enjoy such a privile g e? M t H. L. was JONES the members of the C our t were not 'aware of the meaning which o f th p: apprehended de to od attach that several to the word " present." It was, to his knowledge—and he spoke as an old member of the court—the usual prac tice to consider that an Alderman who attended the court during any part of the day before the appoint meet of a committee was eligible to act upon such committee. The principle was recognised in a place of higher authority than the Court of Common Council, the word " present " adhering to the member,' however short might be the duration of his stay. There was another point to which it was necessary to call the attention of the court. The town clerk, as officer of the court, kept a record of its proceedings, and was bound by the terms of his duty to enter the names of those who were elected, and he could state whether the Aldermen objected to had or had not entered the court before the appointment of the committee.—(Hear.) Mr. H. TAYLOR dia not think it necessary to consider how the House of Commons transacted their business. The members of that assembly might consider, for all he knew, the words "present" and "absent" to be synony mous.—(A laugh.) He recollected that the motion for the committee included the Aldermen " present," and the Aldermen absent, who happened to be Mt mbers of Parliament, but he could not accept of the definition of the word "present" as meaning " absent."—(Laughter.) The Tov;tr CLERK said it was the invariable practice, since he had been an officer of the Corporation, to men tion the Aldermen who merely appeared during part of the day as present during the idiole day, except their absence happened to be noticed by special motion.— (Hear, hear.) Mr. LOTT—Then the best way in which we can speak of an absent Alderman, is to say that he is present. — (Laughter.) Alderman LAWRENCE said the Aldermen were enti tled to some indulgence as to their attendance in that Court in consideration of the magisterial duties, fre quently of a very heavy nature, which they had to per form, and the knowledge of which had, no doubt, its weight in establishing the rule affecting their eligibility on committees. It happened that on the day upon which the Irish committee was appointed, several of the Aldermen were engaged in their official duties at the Central Criminal Court, and one was performing the magisterial duties of the Lord Mayor at the Mansion house, while another was presiding at Guildhall. Mr. WIRE said the question was, whether the Court would vary a practice of long continuance upon the sud den exception taken by one of its members without the notice necessary to be given even in matters of an ordi nary nature. Ills experience convinced bim that the mere momentary appearance of an Alderman in that court made that functionary " present" the whole day; and if Mr. H. L. Taylor objected to the regulation, let notice be given of a motion on the subject.—(Hear.) Mr. HARRISON said the Town Clef k had, by stating the practice of the Court, decided that the mover had acted with irregularity in raising the question, and that ' an alteration in that practice could not be achieved with out regular notice. Mr. H. L. TAYLOR expressed the dissatisfaction he felt at the extraordinary definition of the word " pre sent," which, it now appeared, meant nothing at all, but that a man was "not present."—(Laughter.) Be could not tolerate so flat a departure from common sense, and as he wished to see the Aldermen really " present" on committees, he was desirous of making sure of their at tendaece by enforcing a rule which was t vidently made in order to induce members to pay more strict attention to their duties. Mr. \VIRE—The question as to the omission of the names 01 the tour Alder men cannot be put. . The LORD MAYOR put it to the Court whether it would be equitable to deny the privileges of the Court to the Antenna!' who was actually engaged in periorm• ing the magisterial tubetions of his office at the moment committee, in which he might take a deep interest, was in a state of formation?—(hear, hear.) It stmt.:: him that if some rule ut the kind to which several of the metnbers had alluded were not acted upon, the Court might be reasonably charged with having given but little encouragement to the zeal and energy of the magistrates. —(Ucar, hear.) It Mr. 11. L. Taylor objected to the existing practice that it was a practice in error, and not ' to be ju-titied, he could give notice in the usual manner, atnl the subject could undergo timple discussion ; but Mr. Junes was right in stating that the town clerk, who kept the records which were to pass down to posterity, could speak but from facts. Under these circumstances he had to express his decision that no alteration could take place in the existing practice as represented by the town clerk without notice, and that, as, a matter of course, the subject was at an end.—(Cheers.) Upon the motion of idr. Deputy BEDFORD, the letter of Lord Clarendon upon the subject of Ireland was ordered to be printed and circulated amongst the mem bers of the Court.—Adjourned. PUBLIC DEBT.—A return moved for by Mr. Hume stales the actual decrease of charge of the public debt between 1828 and 1849, at 672,4041. The decreased charge of the long annuities, life annuities, and annuities for terms of years, is 163.9841. THE ARCIIALOGICAL INSTITUTE.—We are enabled to furnish our readers exclusively with some particulars relative to the approaching meeting of the Institute at Salisbury. The proceedings will possess greater interest to the learned world than at any previous anniversary. The constitutions of Clarendon and the Anglo-Saxon history of the district will receive a most elaborate elucidation from two of the first Anglo-Saxon scholars of the day. Professor Willis has intimated that Salisbury Cathedral will afford him more materials for illustration than any similar edifice he has yet lectured upon. The other antiquities of the neighbourhood have received so much attention from the literati connected with the Institute, that some difficulty will be expe rienced in bringing the more important subjects within the period allotted for the meeting. As regards rank and number also, it is anticipated that the present anni versary will eclipse all its predecessors.

LEAMIP.GTON, JULY T.—The summer amusements are now at their height, and owing to the sudden close of the London season, several arrivals of distinction are daily occurring. Macready's farewell visit at the theatre was a source of unbounded pleasure to the large circle of his admirers in this county. The character which he selected for personation was the haughty and wily Richelieu. The great cricket match between the Wor cestershire and the Leamington clubs, has jnst termi nated in favour of the latter; the principal players being Lord Guernsey, Major Clowes, lion. W. E. Talbot, Hon. Mr. WrOttesh y, and Captain Lindow. Other matches are coming off next week. The 12th instant is to witness the first of a series of Concerts d'Ete and Pyrotechnical Fetes; the latter being under the direc tion of Mr. Darby, of the Vauxhall-gardens. The en suing Monday will be distinguished by a second horti cultural show, which will take the lead amongst other similar provincial meetings, the prises thrown open to the widest competition, being little inferior to those of Chiswick. These exhibitions are now becoming a rally point !or growers and amateurs in the midland counties. In sporting matters, the usual executive are resolved . that there shall be no retrograde movements—the Lea mington Stakes at 'Warwick, this year, surpassing its former celebrity, there being upwards of 200 sub scribers.

The expenditure had been 621. The rapid succession of events which during the last two years had exercised a depressing influence upon the commerce and public enterprise of the country had, of course, withheld many subscriptions from this fund, al though an appeal had been made to the heads of the printing and publishing business. This report was re ceived and adopted, cud, upon the motion of Mr. Clowes, seconded by Mr. Aymett, a resolution was agreed to au thorizing the expenditure of further sums in collecting subscriptions, the result to be reported at a meeting in the spring of 1550.

We have more doing in our market, and very few hops on sale. MAIDSTONE.—A close examination of several pa rishes in this immediate locality has led to the con clusion that the insect vermin have, upon the whole, increased during the past week, and that the grounds are even worse than is generally imagined. Some few pieces there are, indeed, which show some im provement, but even these are in a bad state. Still it must not be imagined that the bines are past recovery, favourable weather may yet bring some hops. MALLING.—The bine is now turning yellow at places, and the effects of the vermin show strongly on the weak bines. The nigger have made their appear ance, but we see no diminution of lice. Appear ances altogether would indicate a lower duty than last week. BRENCIILEY. Our correspondent says, "During the past week I have endeavoured to find out the real state of the hops in this a► d neighbouring parishes. The general reports are truly unfavourable, and from what I have seen myself, I have no hesitation in quoting them daily falling into a blight." HawfinuasT.—The grounds here are doing very badly ; there is no improvement. GOUDBURST.—The preceding week has not been attended with any improvement ; in fact, the greatest portion have retrograded considerably, the fly having attacked them simultaneously one day, and dispers-d the following, and not without causing injury. In some grounds tl-e whole of the bine, from bottom to top, is covered with vermin, with not the least indica tian of lateral shoots making their appearance. ORPINGTON.—About three out of four hop grounds about here will not grow a hop, the fourth only par. tially, to all present appearance. There is very little Line, and no chance now of any more growing; and what there is is dying off as fast as it can. CRANBROOK.—The bine still continues in a very precarious state—we think rather worse than last week. IGHTHAM AND SEAL.—The hops have improved but slowly during the past week, and are still in a precarious state. EDEanaIDGE.—The best grounds are doing pretty well. but the weak bines are quite done. SUSEX.—At Tunbridge Wells market on Friday, the reports of the Sussex planters were, that the duty must fall considerably under 100,00/. FARNHAM, ALTON, AND COUNTRY DISTRICTS, JULY 9.—Our predictions, a fortnight since, are verified to the very letter. The plantations, with very few exceptions, are completely blighted, and the only hope remains that we may have a good rain, and get a few hops at the tops of the poles. There is scarcely a pocket of yearling Farnham or Country hops unsold, and very few of the fine growth of 1847, which have advanced in price very considerably.— Maidstone Gazette, July 10. GLASGOW.—ALARMING ACCIDENT AT THE QUAY. —Yesterday afternoon an incident, fortunately unat tended with fatal consequences, occurred at the quay, which occasioned for some time considerable alarm among those who were on the wharf. The steamer, Duchess of Argyll, being advertised to sail at half-past five o'clock in the afternoon, a great number of intending passengers were in waiting at the wharf, previous to her arrival from Helensburgh. From some cause of deten tion the vessel was not forward at tkie quay till the time advertised for sailing, and, in consequence, the crowd of parties coming on shore, and others pressing on board, occasioned no little stir, and some unavoidable confusion. It was, therefore, within a quarter to six o'clock before the steamer was ready to start on her downward trip. Just as she was canting out into the river an individual named Alexander Taylor, who was standing close on the edge of the wharf, seeing away some of his friends, lost his balance and fell forward. In doing so he threw out his arms to save himself, and caught hold of the dress of a Mrs. Watson, who, with an infant in her arms, was watching the departure of her husband for Gairlochhead. The consequence was that all three were at once precipitated into the water. The incident being witnessed by hundreds the utmost alarm was manifested by all the parties within view of the occurrence. A boat was instantly lowered, by means of which Mrs. Watson was picked up, along with her infant, in a few minutes after their immersion. Taylor was rescued at the same time with the life-hook, and safely brought out, not much the worse. Unfor tunately, the female, in falling, appeared to have come against the piles, as her forehead was considerably cut. Otherwise, however, her injuries are but trifling, and as she was promptly attended by a medical gentleman, who was at the time on the quay, no dangerous results are expected to ensue. The Intent, with the exception of the cold bath, was quite unhurt. The accident would not, in all probability have occurred, had the police, who are to some extent responsible for the safety o. the quay. been able to discharge their duty efficiently; but this, from the circumstances above narrated, was rendered almost im possible.—Aw et British Mull. THE COAST DrrErseEs.—The batteries on the Thames and Medway cii,tricts will all be completed in about two months from the present period, and will be of a very efficient description for the eh fence of these important navigable rivers. The number of guns to be mounted fur the defences of these livers are thirteen at Sherri Head, thirteen at Coal-house Point, fifteen at Gravesend, and fifty at Tilbury Fort. The whole of the guns are 32 pounders, mounted on wooden carriages, and they are all to have iron plittfolms for being fired from on a plan submitted by Lieutenant-Colonel llar dinge, Ilea al Artillery. The idea of having a more extended practice range than at present exists in IVoulwich Marshes has been revived, and the advantage of a three miles rEnge in an c asterly direction is to be submitted to the Committee on the Ordnance esti mates now sitting. Some difficulties have arisen with regard to Shoeburyness, owing to the objections made by the Lord of the Manor, but that h cality does not ullUrd any particular advantages to render the objections of any consequence. Shoeburyness would answer very well as practice ground at certain periods of the tide, but it is isolated, and the conveyance of artillerymen from Woolwich to that quarter would always be at tended with considerable expense, and the loss of time to the members of the Select Committee who would have to attend experiments, would far counterbalance any saving which might be effected in obtaining a prac tice-ground cheerier than at Woulwich. On the con trary, were a three-mile range procured at Woolwich and Plumstead Marshes, the only difficulty being the high demands of the proprietors of the grounds, the valuable time of the nln'mbers of the Select Committee would be saved, experimenters would be better able to attend at a trifling expense, owing to Woolwich being so near London, and the officers, non-commissioned officers and men of the Royal Artillery would have an opportu nity, so desirable, of practising at that length of range to render themselves proficient in the improved part of the duties of artillerymen. The batteries which would have to be erected for firing from might also be so situated as to become important as a part of the defences of the river Thames; and their vicinity to the garrison would at all times ensure an ample supply of men and material to overcome a very powerful invading force, should any foreign power contemplate or attempt to ascend old Father Thames. A battery at Shoeburyness would be of little service as a means of defence—the long tracts of sand rendering it difficult for vessels to ap proach in that direction. FOREIGN WOOD GOODS.—An attempt having been recently made to introduce, free of duty, under the de nomination of staves, a number of batten ends, subject to duty, as wood sawn, which had been reduced to the dimensions of staves not exceeding 72 inches in length, 7 inches in width, nor 3} inches in thicknesss,--the principal officers of tho Customs depar tment a t h the a v e se v e ral ports and places thr ou gh out the kingdom been made acquai nted therewith, and have received directions to enjoin the officers under their survey to use their utmost vigilance to detect any similar imposition which should be attempted at either of their respective ports. CIIOLERA.—CORONER'S IN9.I.7EST.—On Thursday last an inquest was held before Mr. Bedford, coroner for Westminster, at the Rising Sun public-house, Charles street, Grosvenor-square, on the body of a man whose name has not yet been discovered, who was found at ten o'clock on Tuesday morning in Globe-yard, South Molton-street, in such a state as to require him to be removed on a stretcher to the workhouse in Mount-street, where he was immediately attended by Mr. Bloxam, the surgeon, and found to be in the last stage of cholera. He died at 8 o'clock in the evening of the same day. The police-sergeant deposed' to the deceased having given the name of Michael Sulivan, and his address No. 5, Gra) 's-inielare, and to his having said he had eight children living. The parish beadle bad been to 5, Gray's inn -lane, and found a man who said his name was Jeremiah Sulivan, but' could learn n othing of that of the deceased. The coroner adjournedh further inquiries might be made, and t t ha e t the tng condition of the children might be investigt_ll a has make investigated . MALLEABLE IRON SCltEscirl ofELLERS.—It hitherto been usual to rew propellers of brass or imperfection taking place in them, or any differen ce cast iron, which, °Li any form being considered advis able, have to be cut down and recast. An experiment is in lie factory at Woolwich Dockyard Dow in rope p ropellers of malleable iron to obviate progressr to wake inconve niences, and no doubt is entertained of its screw these success. The screw propeller at present in course of formation, and making of malleable iron by the aid of one of Nasmyth's hammers, has had one of its flanges and the centre complaely formed, end when the other flange is fully added, will weigh 24 tons, or 50 cwt. When dressed and finished for use it is calculated it will weigh 35 cwt., nod %via be 12 feet 8 inches in diameter, the greatest breadth of the extremity of the flanges being about 6 feet. The foremen and workmen t ngaged in making the malleable iron screw propeller have shown great ingenuity in overcoming the difficulty of giving the curved form to the flanges with a flat-feced hammer, presenting a surface of 10 by 8 inches. This they have completely effected by placing a small piece of iron attached to a long iron rod betwixt the face of the ham mer and the flange, so as to give it the requisite curve with the greatest ease. FALL OF AN AEROLITE,—The Press.e of Sunday records the fall of an aerolite of five ki l ogrammes oesf a in weight, at 'rrige dace, near Moatarghi , at , the , close violent storm. It was composed o f crystal, stupseur, and a substance resembling plaster.
