NAVAL AND MILITARY INTELLIGENCE. The Royal Mail Steampacket Company's ship Orinoco, Captain Wilson, arrived at Southampton yesterday morn ing, from Constantinople, Malta, and Gibraltar, having been employed in conveying the fith Royal Fusileers to the former place from Southampton. She left Constan tinople on the 22d of April, and passed the following steamers in the Dardanelles, bound up :—The Royal Mail Steampacket Company's ship Trent, having the steamer Tonning in tow ; the Medway, belonging to the same company ; the Emperor, and the Arabian. On the 24th of April, off the Island of Cerigo, she passed the General Screw Company's ship Golden Fleece, steering N.E. A large fleet of transports had arrived at Malta, and sailed again with a strong fair wind. On the 28th of April the Orinoco met, off Malta, the Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer Rajah ; and, on the 29th of April, in lat. 38 N., long. 9 E., the British screw steamer Andes, and the ships Otter and Memphis, steer ing to the eastward. Three transports, Nos. 49, 50, and 51, were lying in Gibraltar when the Orinoco left; and she passed the following vessels in the Straits : The Bombay, No. 24 ; the Eveline, No. 31; and trans port No. 26 (name not ascertained). It is not yet known whether the Orinoco will again be employed in the transport service, but it is most pro bable that the Government will engage her. The French sailing line-of-battle ship of 90 guns Breslaw, Captain Bosse, left Sheerness yesterday at 8 a.m., assisted by two steam-vessels lashed alongside, in consequence of which the salutes to the Admiral's flag and the fort were dispensed with. 'Unfortunately, yesterday morning, when guying down their new jib-boom, the stay purchase not being sup port enough, they sprung it. Information was given to the Captain Superintendent Christopher Wyvill, and, although on Sunday, a new jibboom was made in the yard and sent off alongside by 7 p.m. The Powerful, 84, Captain Mansell, will be docked to-day at Portsmouth to have her copper examined. The Brisk 14, screw-corvette, Commander Seymour, made another trial of her machinery with steam up yes terday (Monday) at Portsmouth. This vessel will, with others, form a squadron to cruise in the White Sea. A number of active, well grown lads in the Galway Workhouse having expressed an anxious desire to ob tain employment in the Royal navy, the guardians came to the resolution of applying to the Poor Law Com missioners, in order to obtain their sanction for the ne cessary arrangements. Commodore Superintendent John Sheph2.rd has given notice that Woolwich Dockyard will be closed after Wednesday afternoon to the public, as otherwi,e it would be extremely difficult to complete the preparatioLs necessary for the launch of the Royal Albert. The gates of the dockyard will be opened again on Saturday, May 13, at eleven o'clock, for the admission of the public to witness the launch, which will take place at one o'clock. One hundred and thirteen pieces of ordnance, each gun weighing upwards of three tons, aro forthwith to lie transmitted to Constantinople, and the Lords of the Admiralty have taken up a transport for their convey ance, in addition to 49 tons of heavy shot and CO tons of ammunition and combustibles. The Resistance saiii rig transport has arrived at Sheer ness from Deptford to complete loading provisions for the Baltic fleets. The Ilolyrood screw steam transport left Sheerness o n Sunday, laden with provisions for the allied fleets in the Baltic. The Mary Ann transport embarked Captain Holden's troop of the 13th Light Dragoons at 10 o'clock yester day morning at Portsmouth Dockyard. Lieutenant Purcell, Dr. Woodman, about 60 men, and 53 horses, comprised this shipment. The Negotiator transport embarked Captain Jenyn's troop at the same time and place. This troop com prised Cornet Maclean, Assistant Surgeon, and about 50 men and horses. These troops marched into Portsmouth from their billets at Farehain and lialrant, and were enthusiastically greeted by the inhabitants of the town as they passed through to the place of embarkation. The wind was blowing a gale at the time the troops went MI board, and the transports were consequently unable to leave the harbour. The Devonshire, which sailed from Sheerness at 3.45 p.m. on Wednesday last, arrived at the North-wall, Dublin, on Sunday 'corning, at 7 o'clock, having on board two officers and 120 men of the Royal Artillery, who marched immediately to Portobello Barracks, where they will be quartered pending further orders. The Himalaya may be expected at Queenstown in the course of a few days, for the purpose of taking on board the sth Dragoon Guards, under orders for the seat of war. The Debats says the treaty of alliance concluded between France and England justly makes the occupa tion of the Danubian principalities by Russia the start ing of the war. There is, then, reason it adds, to be lieve that, if France and England succeed in their en terprise, the principalities will have their share in the treaty which will consecrate the results of the war, as they have their share in the treaty which opens the chances of it. No power can think of placing purely and simply the principalities under the exclusive protectorate of Russia, or in the sole and absolute dependence of Turkey. The day on which peace shall be re-established, two questions will arise re specting the future of the East--must the Danubian principalities be replaced under the double protec torate of Turkey and Russia ? or must the common pro tectorate of Europe be substituted for the Turco-Russian one ? The first system, that which would replace the Danubian principalities in the statu quo ante bellurn, would have the inconvenience of causing everybody to say that it was hardly worth while going to war. They will certainly not replace them in the state in which they were before the war, for this state is evidently pre carious, and they will probably place them under the collective protectorate of Europe, instead of the contra dictory protectorate of Russia and Turkey. This mea sure will be in conformity with the principle of the East ern will. The Debats then asserts that the interest of Europe requires that the two principalities should be formed into a neutral state like Holland or Belgium ; and it proceeds to show as follows that it is necessary for their safety and independence that the Black Sea should be opened to the military power of the west. So long as the Black Sea shall remain closed to the navies of the west, the Danubian principalities will be completely given up to the encroachments of Russia. Does she desire to invade the principalities ? She invades them when she pleases. To occupy them ? She occupies them. Can Turkey prevent her? Turkey has become weak. The Moldo-Wallachian populations ? They may hate and complain, but cannot resist. We have often heard tra vellers blame the timidity of the Hospodars of Moldavia and Wallachia with respect to Russia. But what could they do ? Support them, if y ou w i s h t h em to resist. But Europe can only support them by going near to them, and she will only go near by causing the Black Sea to become free. Open the Black Sea to the vessels of war of Europe ; let there be no longer only two flags floating in that sea, one strong the other weak ; free at the same time the passage of the Sulma, at the mouth of the Danube, from the piles of mud which nature seems to accord with complaisance to Russian policy ; have, in short, a river free from obstacles, and a sea from diplomatic embarrassments, and then you will see Moldavia and Wallachia, whether they continue to form two Principalities, or whether they unite to form only one, adopt the sentiments which would become the inde pendence which treaties have created for them. The Solicitor-General, Mr. Terrell, and Mr. Wise, of the common law bar, were engaged upon the opposite side, and contended the Court had no jurisdiction in the case. The Master of the Rolls had no doubt in his mind that the case before the Court came within his jurisdiction ; and these infant plaintiffs were as much within the juris• diction, under the circumstances of their birth and pa rentage, as if they had been born in England with an English father, on one day, and transported into France or abroad on the day after, where they might take up their future domicile. His Honour said that he was not going to contest the authority of the equity courts of France ; and he had his doubts how far any order of his, under the circumstances, could be satisfactorily carried out, considering the state in which the question had been left by the decision of the French courts. He still felt he was placed with respect to these two children in loco parentis by the law of this country. His course, therefore, was clear. He had respect especially, and so should his judgment have respect, to the children who were the subject of the present proceeding. They wei e, in his opinion, notwithstanding their parentage and. incidents, British-born subjects, and within the jurisdiction of this court. He felt it his duty to say Lira enough had been revealed in these proceedings to induce a belief that if the parties were not prudent cir cumstances would be disclosed which would be highly disagreeable, and even painful to the feelings of the chil dren of the defendants, and it would he extremely pru don t for the litigant . parties to reflect upon the possibility of disclosures being made which must be painful to the family and more particularly in after life to the younger branches of this family. He should not hesitate to make an order affecting person and property, but lie had no reason to expect that any order be might make upon the ,übjeet could be compulsory carried out. His great object would be to protect, under all circumstances, the children, who were by the law of the land committed for protection especially to the equity courts. Under these circumstances, he should decide that the case was within the jurisdiction of the court, which was the pre liminary consideration in the suit. It would be a ques tion hereafter what order, as to the custody of the chil -Idi en, the Court might make. The great question before him was, as to the custody of infants, and noon that he did not entertain a doubt that be had jurisdiction, which he would exercise. There were very cogent reasons why the parties should not suffer this case to become the subject of adverse litigation, and coun , el would do well on either side to consult whether an amicable arrangement might not be effected without prejudice to the interests of the various parties ; and he was more particularly anxious for an arrangement of an arnie,able nature, for the sake of the infant plaintiffs committed to his charge.

Sth. &West.(lro.) Great Western Irish South-Eastern Lancaster & Carlisle Do Thirds 723 i i By the arrival of the General Screw Steam Shipping Company's snail packet Lady Jocelyn, we learn that the principal topic of interest was the newly-discovered gold di gg i n gs, with respect to which the only question was as to whether they will prove to be rich enough to repay the trouble of research. There is one point contained in the letters published by the Cape Herald that will be interesting to the public. We refer to the discovery of copper, which the writer adds is easily procurable from the suifice, and in waggon loads. It we add to these recommendations of the di g gings the number of precious stones and th e p l at i ng that are likewise to be obtained there, that country which has been so lately discarded as worthless may yet prove to be richer than any other appendage of her Majesty's possessions. With respect to the terms on which the Orange Sove reignty was given up, the Friend observei— . ` We understand the new Government applied to the Special Commissioner for• 90,0001. to enable them to com mence business ; and that, though he declined to give them the full amount, he presented them with 6,000 i., 1,0031. of which is to go towards purchasing the late British Resi dent's house, as a residence for their president. He gave them also 3,0001. on account of the Been' Plaats fines, to be divided among the sufferers in such maoner as they may think proper, and 5001. to be divided between Stander and three ur four others, who, they allege, were illegally im prisoned soineyears since, and the widows of Dreyer, who was shot after Boem Pleats, and Waldman, who was shot in some skirmish with Major Warden in the Winburg district. The new Government, after some hesitation, presented Dr. Taucred with 2001., in addition to the 31. previously col lected, and the rev. gentleman thereafter immediately re turned 'to the district of Cianwilliam. The new Govern ment has also purchased gunpowder, shot, Sze., from the British Government to the amount of 1,0501. They have agreed to pay 951. for the barracks, and other buildings on the ordnance ground in Bloemfontein, in the vicinity of the Queen's Fort. The Special Commissioner has also presented the new Government with the three large gnus on the Queen's Fort, and sufficient shot, shell, and other ammunition to work them. He has also given them the following arrear quitrents, or so much as they may be able to collect :—For the year 1853, 2,300/. ; for previous years, 2,1501.—0 n condition that they shall pay immediately 1,0001. to the British Government, and 1,0001. more so soon as they may be able to collect it. The new Govern ment has also received all the Government buildings and office furniture in the different towns of the Sovereignty from the Special Commissioner gratis." 85 841 10 12 10 • 12 p 58i 594 -- BAd Bris. & Ei. 4 p. c.

The Cape Parliament will meet at Cape Town between the 23d and 30th of June. At Simon's Bay, on the 25th of March, were the Meander, 44, Commodore Talbot ; the brig Penguin, 6, Commander Etheridge ; the brig Royalist, Commander Bate ; the Dutch bark Maria Hallegonda, for Aus trali2, ;_ and the schooner Caledonia, for Melbourne. Th 4 Lady Jocelyn is 13 days behind her time. Off the Isile of France, in lat. 17 south, long. 70 east, she experienced a very severe hurricane, which threw her on her beamends, and she lost topmasts and jibboom, sails, bulwarks, and boats. Owing to the existence of smallpox at Point de Galle, she was put under quaran tine on arrival at the Mauritius, although all on board were in perfect health. A third detention occurred at St. Vincent, where coal was not to be obtained until the Queen of the South and the City of Hobart had been supplied. 84 86 51 - 53 50 - 52 It is reported that the Scoti Grays have been placed under orders for service in Ireland, and that the 16th Lancers, now detached, are to be again consolidated in Dublin during the summer. The embarkation of the first troop of the 11th Hussars, which was to have taken place on Saturday morning, was unavoidably postponed to yesterday (Monday) morning, in consequence or the commissariat officers not being able to perfect their arrangements. At 7 o'clock the first division, consisting of 49 men, 43 troop horses, and seven officers, under the command of Captain Ed mund Peel and Lieutenant A. W. Saltmarehe, assembled on the parade ground at Portobello Barracks, where they were inspected by Major Douglass, the officer in com mand of the regiment, after which they at once proceeded to Kingstown. Another division was to follow in the course of the day, and on Wednesday it is expected that the entire regiment will have vacated the barracks. No. 59 transport, the Tyrone, 1,200 tons, arrived at Kings town on Saturday evening. Lieutenant Grant Ray mond, R.N., Admiralty agent, was the officer in charge. Lord Cardigan is still in town. The 34th Regiment, from Sheffield, will arrive at Portsmouth this day (Tuesday) to take up the quarters vacated by the 79th Highlanders. Several pensioners in Limerick have re•enlistel for regiments gone to Turkey. 50 - 52 3 - 2 4 Shares, ICTo.I. Do.

The repeated explosions which have occurred of late in coal mines, and the melancholy loss of life with which each case is attended, have excited an unusual degree of public attention. We visited the institution on Satur day last for the purpose of inspecting the diagrams, and a small apparatus explaining " Williamson's Im proved System of Colliery Ventilation," which pro fesses to give immunity from all accidents arising from fire - damp, choke - damp, or goat-fire. By the present system of ventilation the air is conveyed merely, as it were, round the outline of the mine, and the foul air is (tarried off through the upcast ; but the goavese or wastes of the mine, where the coal has been removed, and the roof allowed to fall, have been the frequent cause of explosions, from the fact that they are left unventilated, and thus become enor mous reservoirs of explo,ive fire-damp, ready to be forced into the workings as soon as there occurs any decrease in the atmospheric pressure. By the system of Mr. Williamson, however, these goaves are made what he very justly terms the safety valves of the mine, for they are constantly drained of foul air, and in such a manner as to prevent it from being forced into the workings, and the spontaneous combination of coal dust, known as goaf-fire, is prevented by the free circulation of air into the goaf or waste. The dia gram shows four figures, which resemble the letter V, four times repeated, side by side, the space between each representing the roadway, and the upper part the coal face at which the men are supposed to be work log. The d own - cast and the up-cast are reversed from the that usual practice. Th e a i r i s supp li e d i n such a man nern.ght ? a t the current i s kept up, and, rushing to the its onward course, is driven through each shgoaf, and the font air escapes through the lower end of e goaf by an upper or an underfoot way, into the pper cast, wher e i t i s carried off, leaving '', the goal as well as the rest as we saw exemplif ie d i n t h e of .the mine filled with pure airsmall apparatu - s which , was put in motion. It of fresh air is so vast thealiset i ve a ruld to s u ay s e t t h h a e t fatalth e s c u o p n p s l e y . quences of choke damp leading features of the syßt eei . 3% part of t y he th m e The following are the ineewithdrawalbefore i t of ig thexas from each and very . diffused with the atmospheric air, the daer of explosion is lessened, as the gas is not explosive until mixed part of the with air, whilst pure air is supplied to every works. In the event of a blower occurring of the mine, the workman could be Nvithdrgawinn,e;dptaill gas would be carried away without interfering with the other part of the workings. A large proportion of the foul air will be withdrawn, 'without those strong currents which have frequently prov e d so dan gerous. Should an explosion take pl ace, its d es t ructive to th effects would be reduced e mini mum, and the terrific effects of the after-damp or choke damp would be entirely prevented, while the ventilation would not be disar ranged as at present. which frequentlyprevents the escape of those not injured by the explosion, or their receivin g timely aid. Greater facility. acrd economy in work ing, by the few traps and trappers required (be sides the greater immunity from accidents), thus g ivin g the children of the miner a better opportunity of obtain ing a school education, of which they are the sake of a few shillings per week , t o be e arned for rced in a solitary and monotonous employment, frequently in almost total darkness. Mr. Williamson has another invention for a system of working fiery mines, which he calls the " isolated t stall . work ing ," th e o bj ect o f w hi c h is to render impossible f or an exp l os i on t o ex t en d b e y o nd the stall in which it may originate.

Yesterday morning the two regiments of Royal Surrey Militia were out for training. The volunteers to the Ist regiment, Colonel Holmes Sumner, mustered on Rich mond-green, where the Adjutant, permanent staff, and trained non-commissioned officers were in attendance to receive them. Many were found absent on the roll-call, some being ill, and others having entered into her Ma jesty's service since joining the militia ; the muster, how ever, was considered very fair. The volunteers to the 2d Regiment, Colonel Lord Lovelace, met at Guilford, and commenced their training ; nearly all who bad joined answered to their names. The 3d Regiment of the Royal Surrey Militia have now been training, under the command of Colonel Challoner, at Kingston-on-Thames, since the 28th ult., and have made much progress. The Superintendent-Registrar of Benefit Societies has forwarded a notice to the head-quarters of the different militia regiments that any man deprived of benefits from a society in consequence of volunteering for the militia may have the same enforced on application to a county magistrate, who has the power to award a sum of money as compensation, and in default of payment can issue a distress warrant on the goods of the society's treasurer. The Ist Regiment of the Derbyshire Militia will as semble for duty on Thursday next at Derby. The num ber required to form the two regiment is 1,500, but up to the present time not one-half have been found. The staff have, during the last weeks, been most active at their exercise. It is believed the ballot will have to be put put into operation, owing to the number required to compete the two regiments. The Artillery Battalion of the Royal Sussex Militia will assemble at Lewes, for 28 days' training and exer cise, on the 24th inst. The regimental depot is at South over, at the outskirts of the town, where spacious gun sheds, Sze., have been provided by the lieutenancy of the county for carrying on drill. The men will be in billets. The Limerick Enrolled Pensioners' Battalion, under Major Calder, will be called out for six days' drill and exercise on the 15th inst. It is supposed all those bat talions in Ireland will be required to do garrison duty in the ensuing summer. LAW INTELLIGENCE S —May 8. ROLLS' COURT. The Master of the Rolls delivered his judgment upon the case, Reynolds v. Kortright, which was fully re ported in a former number of this paper, which turned upon the question whether by word of mouth, almost in articulo 4nortis, a British subject resident temporarily in Porto Rico, a Spanish colony in the West Indies, could appoint a friend, before a notary, as his commissario, with power to make a will as ha liked. The deceased, Mr. Reynolds, had made such an appointment in this instance. The Master of the Rolls said it was clear that this was a question which must be decided according to the Spanish law. The Court was of opinion the defendant was authorised in making the will in his own favour, according to the instructions given. The case was, how ever, of reasonable doubt, and he should not award costs. HOPE V. HOPE. This interesting case, as respects the Hope family, stood by adjournment and direction of the Court in the paper of to-day. It is a suit instituted by Mr. Francis Henry Dickinson, as the next friend of the plaintiff, Louisa Albertine Hope Emilie Mathilde Hope, Jean Henri Hope, and another infant male child of James Beresford Hope and Amelie Melani e , hi s w if e , a gainst the .. two latter, their pa ren t s , w h o are th e d e f en d ants i n this case. The object of the bill was to assign to the moth er de descendant of ud t a li infant plaintiffs a proper custody, in consequence of the di ssension exist ing on that point betw een th e f a th er an d the children.

Mrs. Hope ab outyastliiti was alleged, of period became unwell, and an arrangement was mad: daughters should be taken under the prot t e h e a tion and care her thre e of a relation, Lady Mildred Hope. The t wo sons were Their allowed to remain with their mother. uncle, Mr. A. H o pe, in 1853, brought the two boy s over to En' g- join their who subsequ entl y , how ever , were allowed to their mother in France, at her special instance and en treaty, and a representation by Mrs. Hope's physician that their absence might be very injurious to Mrs.Hope'e health and comfort. On this occasion, at Mr. Hope's in stance, his wife signed an agreement that the boys should be allowed to return to their fatheF in Tont- months' time. A suit, however, followed, which was soonafterinstituted SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. NOTICE TO MARINERS. LIGHTS AND BEACONS IN TUE GULFS OF FINLAND AND BOTHNIA. The Imperial Senate of Finland has resolved, and notice has been given, that all lights in the Gulf of Finland will not be lighted until further notice, with the exception of those of Norskars and Euskars, in the Gulf of Bothnia; these will, however, be extinguished as soon as a ship be longing to the enemy makes her appearance in the neigh bourhood. The pilot stations on the outer coast of the Gulf of Fin land, and the inner pilot station at the Torkala Odde, as also those of Aland and Signilskar, are to be removed to the nearest place inside the islands or to the mainland, with tho exception of the one at Pellinge of Glasholme, which will remain for the purpose of piloting vessels going inside the islands along the Sodra Pellinge. All the pilots to the northward of Aland, and along the coast of the Gulf of Bothnia, are to remain at their sta tions also until further notice, except in the event of any vessel of the enemy appearing, when they are to depart without delay. All beacons and seamarks established on the outer coast, and at the entrance from the sea, are to be removed, an d, if necessary, all the m ar k s an d beacons on both sides of the fairway of the the inner pilot station at Forkala Odde. Should Hango Odde be occupied by the enemy, the pilots are to depart, and all the seamarks are to be taken away from Jungforasonna, and from both entrances to Pargas. CUSTOM-HOUSE, MAY 8.

COURT CIRCULAR. Prince Albert went yesterday afternoon to the Gallery of the New Society of Painters in Water Colours in Pall-mall. His Royal Highness afterwards honoured Mr. Theed with a visit at his studio in Henrietta-street. • Prince Arthur and Prince Leopold took a drive in an open carriage and four. The Queen, accompanied by the Princess Royal and the Princess Alice, and attended by the Honourable Flora Mac donald took a drive in the afternoon in au open landau awl four. Colonel Bouverie was in attendance on horseback. His Royal Highness Prince Albert rode on horseback, at tended by his equerry in waiting. Her Majesty gave a concert in the evening at Buckingham palace, at which the following artistes assisted, viz., Made moiselle Cruvelli, Mademoiselle Bosio, Mademoiselle Didiee, Signor Lablache, Herr Formes, Signor Ronconi, signor Lucchesi, and Herr Reichardt. The Royal Family, the Foreign Ministers, and a large circle of the nobility were present. Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent arrived at half past nine o'clock, attended by Lady Anna Maria Dawson and Lord James Murray. Their Royal Highnesses the Duchess of Cambridge and the Princess Mary arrived from their residence at Kew, attended by Baron Knesebeck.

Moles worth's bill for placing the public statues in the metro polis under the care and charge of the Commissioners of Public Works has just been printed. The bill gives the commissioners powers to repair and protect the statues by railings, &c., whenever it may be necessary, and also provides that after the passing of the act no public statue shall be erected on any public place without the written assent of the commissioners. The following are the public statues referred to :—The statues of James 11., in Whitehall-gardens ' • of George Canni ng , N ew Palace-yard ; Ch a rles 1., at Charing-cross ; George 111., Pall-mall East ; George IV. and the Nelson Column, Trafalgar-square ; the statue of the Duke of Wellington on the arch at Hyde-park-corner ; the Achilles, in Hyde park ; the statues of George 11., in Golden-square ; the Duke of Wellington, on Tower-green ; George 111. at Somerset-house ; Queen Anne, in Queen-square; the Duke of Kent, Park-crescent ; George 11., at Greenwich Hospital • and Charles IL, at Chelsea Hospital. THE WEATHER AND THE CROPS.-The predictions of those who prognosticated bad hay and corn harvests in the west of England are not likely to be realized. The weather during the past week has been most propitious, genial showers having fallen almost daily. The wheat crop in various parts is looking remarkably well, and a much larger extent has been grown this year than for merly. Potatoes have in some instances been injured by the frost, but, on the whole, they are looking strong and healthy. There has been a great quantity of apple blossom, and the general opinion prevails that it has been little injured by the frost, the weather having been for some time past very dry ; an abundant supply of cider is therefore expected. Much anxiety prevailed some days since as to the hay crop, but in consequence of the rain which has fallen there seems little doubt that there will be a plentiful supply. Since the change in the weather there has been a slight fall in the price of various articles in many of the markets in Devonshire. NICARAGITA.—Late advises from Nicaragua give a striking account of the extent to which the anticipations expressed four years back regarding the probable pro gress of that State have been realised. In 1849, when attention was recalled to this route from the Atlantic to the Pacific, via the River San Juan and the Lake of Nicaragua, the idea of its being found to offer facilities for the regular transit of passengers was treated by a large number of those who had professed to give' attention to the subject as unworthy of considera tion. The navigation of the river even in canoes was alleged to be out of the question, and the dangers from reptiles, fevers, and earthquakes were declared to be such as to preclude all attempts to establish permanet settlements on its banks. In the face of these assertions, however, as well as of the fact that a steam company already existed, with an enormous subsidy from the United States' Go vernment for the conveyance of the mails to Cali fornia over the old route of the Isthmus of Panama, a company at New York have contrived to open up the entire passage, until it has now become not only the most rapid and regular channel of communica tion between San Francisco and the Atlantic ports of New Orleans and New York, but is also preferred for the transmission of gold. The result of the tide of traffic thus introduced is described as having converted the country from a wilderness into a region which pro mises, in point of activity, to present at an early period a counterpart of some of the thriving districts of the American Union. "In 1850," it is observed, " there was not a house between the oceans, except one or two at San Carlos, a military station. Now there are three flourish ing villages, containing more than 1,500 inhabitants, and the river banks are covered at almost every eligible spot with haciendas." Of course, one con seqnence of this position of affairs has been to put a stop to the constant revolutions by which the State had been previously depopulated ; and for the last two or three years the government appears to have been carried on in a satisfactory manner. The example seems likewise to be spreading in the adjoining States, where Americans are also actively at work in obtaining grants of new tracts of country, on condition of opening up fresh means of communication by railways, roads, and o th er analagous undertakings. THE LATE JEWELLERY ROBBERY AT BIRMINGHAM._ Yesterday Thomas Koope, " the Australian merchant," remanded f rom Wednesday last, was again brought before the borough magistrates at the public-office, charged with robbing Messrs. Stockton of jewellery to the am ount of between three and four hundred pounds, No additional evidence was offered on the part of the prosecution, but it transpired that the surplus articles of jewellery found in the prisoner's possession when appre hended in Manchester, and not identified by Mr. Stockton, were the products of similar robberies effected by the prisoner in Liverpool and London. Messrs. Foxall, of Thavies'-inn, Holborn, were favoured with his custom the Thursday previous to his visit to Birming ham, and Hansbergs, the extensive jewellers of Church street, Liverpool, were honoured in a like manner. In both instances the prisoner gave extensive orders, and during his dealings adroitly managed to carry off a valuable booty. Aathese last-mentioned robberies were however, committed beyond the jurisdiction of the Bir mingham magistrates, the evidence was not gone into, and the prisoner was committed to take his trial for the robbery committed at the establishment of the Messrs. Stockton. Mr. Harding, the prisoner's solicitor, re served his defence for the dial.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]-11er Majesty's Royal Letters Patent, for valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most powerful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race course, Opera, and Perspective Glasses, to know the distances of objects viewed through them—of grealt im • portance to the army, navy, and others. Messrs. S.. and B. Solomons, opticians, 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly. Observe—opposite the York Hotel.—These telescopes pos sess such extraordinary powers that some, 33 inches, with an extra eye-piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's ring, and the double stars ; with the same tele scope can be seen a person's countenance three miles and a half distant, and an object from 12 to 14 miles. They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly.— The Royal Exhibition, 1851. -- Va newly invented, very small, powerful waistcoat- pocket glass the size of a walnut, by which a person can k o seen and known 13 mile distant ; they answer every pi lrpose on the race-course, at the opera-houses, countr3r sce nery, and ship s are c l ear l y seen at 12 to 14 miles. They are invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachti) sg, to sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. ( spera, race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with won derful power ' • an object can be c l ear l y seen f rom 10 to 12 ,miles distant. Newly-invented Spectacles ; immediately they aro placed before extremely imperfect vision, every object becomes clear and distinct; the most aged, de fective sight is brought to its youthful, natural, an a ori ginal state. Deafness —New Discovery —The Organi c Vi brator, an extraordinary powerful, small, newly-inv tinted instrument, for Deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the kind that has been, or pro bably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at publi c as semblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing nois es in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the a ssist ance that possibly could be desired.-39, Albemarle-st reot, Piccadilly. Observe, opposite the York Hotel. [AsvEsrissmsmr.]—A most interesting recovery from a vast com plication of diseases, without the aid of medicine, is recorded In tho following letter : " Bridgehouse, Fernley, 3d April, 185.1. "Grateful for the benefit I have derived from Du Barry's Xtuva„ lenta Arabica Food, I feel it m y duty to express t o y ou my unfe ig ned thanks for the Invariable kindness I have met with at your hands. My case is an extrfordinary one, and as it may benefit oth , n• suf ferers I think it but right to place its details at your dispo ml. I have suffered these 33 years continually from diseased lungs, 8 pitting of blood, liver derangements, deafness, singing in the ears, consti pation, debility, shortness of breath and cough, and due; ig that period taken so much medicine that I can safely say I have laid out upwards of a thousand pounds at the chemist's and doctor's. I have actually worn out two medical men during my ailments with , ,ut find ing any improvement in my health. Indeed I was in utter despair, and never expected to get over it, when I was fortunate enough to become acquainted with your Revalenta Arabica, which, 'leaven be praised, restored me to a state of health which 1 long since despaired of attaining. My lungs, liver, stomach, head, and ears are all right, my hearing perfect, and my recovery is a marvel to all my acquain tances.— I am, respectfully, " JAMES ROBERTS, Wood Mei chant."
