At the Court of St James's, the 16th day of Nov., 1827. PR,EnNT, • The KING'S Most Excellent Majesty in Council. Whereas the depredations which have for some time been committed upon the commerce of his Majesty's subjects in the Mediterranean seas by armed 'vessels, piratically cruiz ing under the Greek flag. have of late greatly increased, and have been accompanied with acts of cruelty and barbarity, which have rendered the navigation of those seas highly perilous; and his Majesty has in vain applied for the pre,. vention of these .outrages to the persons exercising the powers of Government in Greece, who, however, willing,, are unable effectually to repress such excesses, owing to . the disturbed sta! - e . °Him country, and the disorder pre vailing' in the several islands of 'the Greek Archipelago, and his Majesty is thereby laid under the necessity of pro viding for the same. To that end, it has appeared to His Majesty that the most - efficacious means by which the persons and lawful commerce of His Majesty's subjects in the Mediterranean seas can be adequately protected, until some Government shall be established in Greece competent to put a stop to all irregularities of the nature complained of, will be to prevent, so far as possible, any armed vessels, bearing the Greek flag, from putting to sea, such ships of war only excepted as are belonging to or acting under the orders of the persons exercising the powers of Government in Greece. For this purpose his Majesty is pleased to order and de clare, by and with the advice of his Privy Council, and it is hereby ordered and declared, that instructions be issued foi•thwith to his Majesty's Naval forces in the Me diterranean, authorising and directing them to seize and send into some port belonging to - (or being under•, the plwer and protection of) his Majesty, every armed vessel which they shall meet with at sea under the Greek flag, or fitted out and armed at any Greek port, such :chips of war only excepted as are belonging to, or acting under the orders of, the persons exercising the powers of Government in Greece; and that they shall duly provide, that all such vessels, with their crews shall be safely detained in the ports.to which they may be sent, until his Majesty's further pleasure respecting them shall be my de known. And with a. view to prevent, as much as, possible, any rdships or inconveniences that may arise in the execution this Order, as it may affect any Greek cruizer which; be ing :at sea at the time when this Order will take effect in the Mediterranean, may not receive immediate notification there off it is further ordered that the Commanders of his 'Majesty's ships, who may be charged with the execution of this Order, 414 in the event of their meeting with any armed ves sels at sea, bearing the Greek flag, that may be liable to the operation of this Order, between the day upon which the' Order shall be notified to the persons exercising the .authorities of Government in Greece, and fifteen days from the date thereof, furnish them with certified copies of this Order, and warn them to proceed forwith to their respective ports ; and that such armed vessels shall not be detained until the expiration of the said fifteen days, unless it shall appear that after such notification of the Order and warning they shall not have complied therewith, or shall have been guilty of plundering or searching any ti ading vessel under the British flag : • . And the Right Honourable the Lords Commissioners of Ills Majesty's Treasury, His Majesty's Principal Secre taries of State, and His Royal Highness the Lord High Admiral, are to give the necessary directions herein, as to them respectively appertain.

M.P,, in the Chair. • The notice having been read, in purseenbe df Which the Meeting, was convened ',The CHAIRMAN rose and said, that he regretted the ab sence of two very efficient Directors from the preterit Meeting. One of 'them had lately been nominated by,his Majesty to the command of the British fleet in the lonian Seas. The Meeting would perceive he allUded to Sir E. Codrington, who had recently acted with so much zeal, fidelity, and courage, and merited the extraordinary honour conferred upon him by his Sovereign, in approbation of his gallant achievement. into the polities of the under taking to which be had taken Odcasieh to advert, it was not their business to inquire, neither was it the businiss of their distinguished Director to question them , lie had a specific duty to discharge to his country, and • per. formed it well. He (the Chairman) was concerned to men tion that Mr. Martin, 'the other Director to whom he had alluded, was on the present occasion -absents on account of a domestic affliction. At the last Meeting it had been proposed to assemble the Proprietors again at an carry period,. The meeting took place in the latter end of August, and the 'Directors confidently expected to'be able to meet the Company after the lapse of a few Weeks. It was now three months since that expectation had been held out; but the delay was entirely owing to.-unforeseen cir cumstances. The general opinion, when the Th'ames burst into their works, was, that all was over with the under taking, and that it would prove impossible to expel the water. . Ho felt happy to he able to congratulatd the meet ing on its cqmplete and %tip expulsion.—(Hear.)— There was now no access of water into : the Tunnel, in con soquenee of the late irruption. The Meeting would now bear the report of the engineer --a statement of their o:penditure.-and estimates of the supposed expence of completing the undertaking. " The following is the Report made by the Engineer to the Board, dated November the 17th: ' • • : November 17, 182'7. Gentlemen—Having, since the *aka have been re sumed, advanced upwards of twenty-five feet, the efficacy of the shield is thus further incontestably proved. My re liance that it would enable us to make our way through !, n y kind of ground, such at least as we were likely to meet in the course of the present undertaking, is fully jus tified by the progress which hail been made during nearly the two months immediately preceding the 18th of May, when the Tunnel was stopped by the River filling it. Whenevet the ground had given way before, and la in the River, of which than had been repeated instances, it was uniformly checked and stopped ; and after the 12th of May, when 'the altered nature of the ground presented greater tinenities than we had to contend' with at- any former period, the state of the works exhibited daily im proVements. From that 'period, every thing seemed to indicate that we should soon reach the good ground which we knee; lay a short distance a head of us. 1 hese expectations, however, were frustrated. The Tun nel was filled with water. But if we look back to all that bad occurred before that day, 'and has subsequently hap pened, we may unheeitatingly assert, that, bad as was the ground, the River wotild'not have forced its way into the works, but for the accidental circumstance of a tier of ves sels having taVen'their stations directly over the shield, on ,which spot nothing of a similar kind had Occurred for many years before: Had the•vessels been stationed over any part of 'the brick-work, no injfity would have ensued. But a . concurrence of unfortunate accidents operating all at once,' proved too muds on the occasion. Whenever'the ground had broken in before, it proceeded from its previously loosened state, occasioned by filtrations or land springs. In April and May, the ground was frequently so loose in souse places, that it was impossible to prevent its penetrat ing into the shield. The River deposits generally followed at the same time ; the shield was found fully adequate to prevent the River from breaking in, even in those circum stances. The accident which occurred on the 18th of May was totally different from any that . had happened be fore. The water rushed in at once at the back of one of the frames in the east arch. 'How this happened I shall now explain. The increased velocity which five er six ves sels, lying a-breast, must give to the current of the River, maybe easily imagined, as well, as their effect in disturbing and dislodging the River sediments, which had incontestably been disturbed before, and thus opening the silty ground to the action of the current. In confirmation of this, the ground which must have proceeded from the general' convulsion,' . was -- not 'found in the Tunnel. This is a conclusive proof that a dislodgement was first formed and carried. away, and that there did not afterwards remain over a part of, the shield, a sufficient body, of solid ground to protect it front the river. It is to be remarked, that the area of this cavity Was very inconsiderable, compared with.the extent of ground that must have been covered and affected by so many' vessels. There must, therefore, have existed a keel cause, which is, that this spot, like some others, has at some remote period been dredged either for ballast, or for laying a moor ing stone in. All that could have been anticipated,, under these circumstances, from the shield, was completely realiz e d, the men had time to retire, and not the slig g htest accident oc curred to any of them. After this irruption, it was found that :the shield bad not been disturbed, and that only some of the fresh brick work had been carried away. We had a right, therefore, to anticipate, that we should soon expel the water from the works. In this, however, we were disappointed ; a second irruption, more impetuous than the first, took place a few days after, but we were not able to ascertain its extent, or its effects, as the .cavity had already been partly filled up. Notwithstanding the violence of this new irruption, the shield, through 'which a body of upwards of 10,000 cubic feet of hard ground had been driven, still maintained a position, which afforded afterwards a substantial founda tion and support for the loads of hags of clay that were thrown into the river. The shield has thus proved effec tive, the brickwork has also answered every expectation, having withstood the effects of so destructive a convulsion. The east arch, in particular, though battered at the founda tions, and destitute of abutment at the east side, did not sustain the slightest injury at the crown, beyond a portion of three rings of bricks that were washed away. The body of the Tunnel itself, throughout the whole range of both arches, though subjected to constantly varying degrees of pressure, has sustained no injury whatever. It has not settled in the least, whereas, bed the catastrophe arisen from any part of the finished work giving way, the consequences would have been far More serious, and all confidence have been destroyed. The system of build ing the arches by a succession of rings, .has been thus sufficiently tried to remove all doubts as to° its sound ness and stability. If it be considered - that the transverse sectional surface of the structure is between 400 and 500 feet, it will be found that the cohesive power of the Roman cement employed in the Work far exceeds any stress the river could exert on any of the rings.' In order to over come so formidable an accident, it was not only necessary that the remedy should he suitable 'and efficacious, but that whatever was done should be done promptly, to prevent further destruction. We could not dispose our materials according to the method practised in building under water,' with the diving bell, but where compelled to throw them at all times of the tide into the unexplored chasm—a chasm nearly thirty-five feet deep, which has absorbed about 10,000 cubic fret of earth to fill it. I shall not dwell in this place on the dangers to Which the works of the Tunnel continued to be exposed, when for many days and weeks the pumps could sthircely gain upon the influx of the water ; nor shall I particularly adVert to the personal risk incurred in repossessing ourselves of the, shield, which was effected as early as the latter end of June, and in clearing it of the soil it was found embodied in. To these must be added, 'the difficulty of righting the frames under a bcdy of ground of so unsettled and heterogenous a nature, with 36 feet of water occasionally upon it ; .and the much greater difficulty of repairing five frames. The injury these frames received has been in clear ing them ; the fractures were heard like shots on the east side of the shield. For which purpose, the men had to apply temporary shorings, bracing, and abutments in every direction, to remove pieces of castings of great weight and dimensions, and. substitute others. It is also fieecessary to take into consideration the confined space in wrsich all this was performed, as it greatly enhanced the labour, difficulty, and danger. In these intricate andimost laborious operations, the men were generally standing ire water, mostly in slush, exposed at the same time to sant runs of waters from above, with frequent irruptions of fluid earth, caused by the ever varying pressure resulting from the tides. So many operations of so intricate a nature required the greatest vigilance as well as unceasing precautions. All these circumstances, to which the mag nitude of the enterprise must give a peculiar character, are fully sufficient to account for the time and the labour that were consumed before the works could be recommenced with safety and effect. It is with great satisfaction can sa y, that we have now passed the most dangerous ground, and got into a harder covering of clay. There is no fear that tiers of vessels will be again moored over the shield.— The ground in the deep part of'the river, as well as on the opposite bank, is good for our operations, a s we h ave ascer tained by our borings, and other circumstances. When I add to these advantages the increased confidence the men haviin the protection of the shield, I have no hesitation to affirm, that nothing within the range of ordinary accidents mcaenn tof ourinterruptul the progress j e bobject I shallwork,the merely or defeat observestlsteattai conclusion, that present appearances justify a hope, that 'we shall be soon able to resume our former average rate, and that the work will be completed within a reasonable time. 4 I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your moat obe dient, hmnble servant, (Sikneil) • 14111./NEL. I . _ _ _ To the Directors of the Thames Tunnel Company.' "The Directors have given much attention to the sub ject of an 'estimate of the future expenses, being wellavaare of its great importance. The nature of the undertaking renders an estimate for its completion a matter of consider able difficulty, because . very much depends on the rate at which the workcan be eariittl ftitviatal. The Directors have in their - .records the progresses of weeks differing widely indeed in this respect. In some weeks only two or three feet were completed, and ,iii others twelve or thirteen !iyct. These variations itethlted frtint the variable nature of the ground through which the excavation was continued, and such uncertainty of progress necessarily affects the ae auracy of any calculation. The Directors. have Presumed that a safe estimate may be made on the average of the whole year, between the 18th MaY a 18,M and the 18th \lay, 192/, in which period, notwithstanding Vei'y serious and continued impediments the average progress was eight feet per week. On this basis they calculate that to include all expenses of materials, lehotir, machinery, &c. &ca the Tunnel may be carried from the jeesent situation of the thicld to the wharf at 'Wapping, for the sum of AWOL beyond the intent aketilable iceetthtlt of the Company_ that from the Wharf at Wapping to the shaft, including the expenses of such abaft, and of making the same avail able for foot passengers, it will require a further sum of 25,000/.- , -and that the needful purchases of premises at Wapping, with the descents and approaches on both sides, will require a further sum of 60,00g—maltiug, to com plete the Whole undertaking, so as to render the Tunnel a convenient and proper intercourse for carriages as well as loot passengers, as conteinplated by the Act of Parliament, total Of 185,0001. beyond what can be raised by the shares novv'to be depended upon. " The Directors are of opitii6n, that should no unforeseen accident delay the work, the sum . mentioned would be n fair estimate lint as the rate of work was for several months—that is to say, from January to the end of March last—nearly 13 feet per week, and the recent borings in the bed of the river afford a well founded assurance of good ground to the northward, and as experience has a tendency to lessen the current expenses of operation, the Directors are not without strong hope that eventually a deduction from the present estimates may reasonably be looked for, and in these estimates the Engineer very nearly accords with the Directors. • " Upon the subject Of estitiutte, the Directors think it their duty to state, that since the accident to the tnnnel of the 18th,of May, Mr.,Brunel has voluntarily surrendered to the Directors the right which his agreement with the Company gave him, to be paid 10,0001. for the use of his patent, and that he has fefeired such remuneration wholly and solely to the Directors, when at the proper period the subject shall he brought before them. " They are decidedly of this opinion, because a failure in So, doing would doubtless prevent any further expendi ture, while,,.on the other hand, should the Tulnel be suc cessfully carried forward to the extent here prspuecd, there would not, in the opinion of the Directors, he any longer a difficulty in raisin What would be necessary for the com pletion of the undertaking. " The Directors beg to call tic attention of. the Pro prietors to the Act of Corporation, by which the number of shares authorized to be issued were 4,000, which, at 50/. per share; would be 200,000/., but of these only 3,874 'Were sillm-ribed far, which, at 50/. per share, would amount to 193;700/. Of these latter there have been defaulters holding 216, leaving available the number of 3,598 shares, which, at 50/., will produce 179,9007. Thus it will be seen that the whole capital authorised to he • subscribed, vii. the 200,6007., is deficient by 20,100/. "As any further subscription for shares at par cannot be now expected, the Directors are advised that they can not therefore raise the deficient capital, nor can they raise the additional capital required to complete the works with out the authority of Parliament, in conseqtience of which the Directors have caused the public notices to be given as required by the Standing Orders of both Ilouses, for an Act to enlarge the present powers of the Act. " The Directors do not think it irrelevant ih the pre cumstanccs, to advert again to the intense interest which is taken both at home and abroad in whatever relates to the Tunnel, and is found in every rank or society; and foreigners as well as natives, stimulated by eager curiosity to stle ‘ w the novel works, visit them in great numbers every day ; and it is not, perhaps, too much to say, that the in terest is so general, that the success of the Work will be regarded as a national benefit and honour, but its abandon ment, while practicable, a national misfortune and disgrace. 1 From the number of visitors who are admitted at one shilling each, a sum 0f,1,7701. is already received,, and is continually increasing. it is, kept hi a separate account, and has net been blended with the account of assets read by the Clerk. . " It was, before the accident in May, intended by the Directors (and their intention was made known to the Pro prietors) to he a fund to he divided as an interest on the in stalments paid, but, under present circumstances, the Pro prietors will consider whether it may not be proper to place this fund at the disposal of the Directors in aid of the concern. " After a very serious consideration of the Act of Incor poration granted by the. Legislature for the specific purpose of forming and completing the projected Tunnel, the Direc tors feel that there is enjoined on them a duty to do all which by that Act they are empowered to do, to follow up the in tention of the Legislature to obtain the benefit thereby pro posed for the public. They conceive, therefore, that the un dertaking cannot he abandoned without some insuperable impediment. At present they are not aware of any impe diment, except the state of the finances, for they feel no hesi tation in assuring the Proprietors of their full conviction that the Tunnel may be completed, and they conceive they are justified in stating such conviction by the very effective manner in which the late accident has been overcome. The balance sheet of the Company up ,to ,the 99th of September. was then read. It appeared from it, that the gross income amounted to 148,714/. 19s. 3d. and the ex penditure to 145,7341. 18s. I. The following is an ESTIIIATE OF DEBTS AND FUTURE RESOURCES OF THE CQMFANY ON THE 19TH NOVEMBER, 1827. To various persons for materials and machinery supplied, including the current outstanding bills, per estimate £4,790 To amount of premises nut yet paid for To amount due to Mr. John Grice, per award of arbitration, for damage done to his premises 490 Balance available for future proceedings 27,107 £33, - 312 Cr.

The next au thorised the Directors to apply to Parliament for a new bill, enabling them to raise a further sum of money to complete the undertaking. The third Was one enabling the Direc tors to proceed with the works, and to obtain such pecu niary assistance as might be necessary to carry them on till the Act bf Parliament could be procured. By these resolu 'dons, the Chairman observed it was not intended to com pel the present subscribers to advance a single shilling be yond the amount for which they were at 'present respon sible. It was fowid necessary to go to Parliament for a new bill, to extend the power the Company possessed tin der the original Act, which enabled them to raise 200,000/. by the sale of shares, and 50,000/. on mortgage. These ' sums being insufficient to complete the undertaking, fresh application must be made to the Legislature for liberty to raise a further sum. But, he repeated, no demand would be made on the present shareholders beyond their existing , Aabilities. The 3d resolution went merely to enable the Directors to borrow on the property of the Company such sums as might be necessary to carry on the works till another Act of Parliament could be obtained. On the part of the Directors, he would say, that if this power was granted them, they would nee it as moderately as possible, A Proprietor believed Mr. Brunel had received a. salary 'if 1,000/. a-year; for the last three years, and wished to know whether, in order to continue that salary, it was ne-. cessary that the Proprietors should pass a resolution to that effect? The Crialaseast said, the agreement w i t h M r . Brun e l soon th as athe th sh e ou should Tunnel be pwaiasd 1 . '1,0001., ers could make use of it, h e way to rece i ve 5,0001., an d when the. work was fully accompl i s h e d, th e C ompany ompl ted a , year for three years. • so that foot passen :.:greed to pay him 5;0001. more—he .haring valued his patent at 10,0001. Since the accident of the 18th of May Mr. Brunel had relinguished his claim of 10,000/. on the Company, leaving it entirely to the Directors to determine w h et gh ou l,' oe his rerrnmeration..—(ll€o, hear.) 'Under these eirctienitances, the Directors t!etermined upon allow ing the engine c t, I,oooi. a y ear , to e a year and a half More' , the time they sidered . it might take to.perfect the under taking.—(Hear.) As to the fln'sl reniuneration of Mr. Brunel, it had been left to the Directors, who, however, would not act in a matter of such importance without con suiting the Proprietors. A Proptietot inquired whether, in the event of the Di rectors raising money before the passing of the new Bill, the Proprietors would be responsible for it, in addition to their present liabilities ? • The CHAIRMAN said, the question was an extremely proper one. It was not meant to do any thing which heyond the amount of his actual subscri p tion. would render any Proprietor resp onsible for o n e shillin g The Ist resolution was then put, and unanimously agreed to. The CHAIRMAN should now proceed to put the second resolution. _ _ It was put, and agreed to unanimously. The Third Resolution having been read from the Chair, it was agreed to, like the preceding ones, without opposition. It was ordered that the admission money received from the visitors to the Tunnel, be placed at the disposal a the Directors. Thanks were voted to the Chairman, and the Meeting, which was very numerously attended, adjourned. LONDON FOGS. • Dr. Davy, the lno€her• of Sir Humphrey Davy, was, I believe, the first person, who broadly laid it down, that fogs arise whenever she air becomes colder than the water. From this principle we can draw the following conclu- 4ions I. rugs will be most frequent in autumn, after the eat th has been heated during the Summer, the air cooling faster than the earth. . • 2. Fog 4 will be greatest after the hottest Summer. 3. Fogs shew that the air has become suddenly colder, and therefore are a sign of snow. 4. Fogs will be rare in hot climates, where the. air is usually very hot. - • • 5. Fogs will be vent frequent in the Arctic regions, where the sudden depression of temperature is enormously below the mean temperature. 6. Fogs will be most frequent over shallow water, which sooner partakes of the temperature of the bottom, than the, deep water. The end of the deep water is known near the , Banks or Newfoundland, by the sudden commencement the fogs. The thick fogs which appealed during Captanv Franklin's last expedition, pro ve th a t the sea is wry low, and the mean temperature 'mat very low, upon that part of the Arctic coast. - ' 7. If the London fogs have increased during late years, it will prove either that the mean temperature has increased, or that the variations of temperature have increaeed, or that a disproportion of temperature between the water am; air has increased, or that the Thames has diminiZred depth. • It is my belief that the last has occurred, partly from the natural rise of all embanked River beds, and partly froth the effect of Waterloo-bridge. This Bridge is unhappily placed near a bend'of the River, and it is to be feared' thin: the alignment of the arches of the other bridges, and tile course of the current, has not been duly considered. Thee only remedy is to narrow the channel, so as to increase its • depth, upon some such plan as Colonel Torrens's. The Quays of the insignificant Seine are open, the Thames inaccessible. It is, however, very dubious-whether that great work would pay as a commercial sptculatitm.— Morning Paper.
