The thie!rness of the walls of the gun at the breech is 20 . 85 inches, the total diameter at the trunnions being 55 inches. It carries a conical cast iron hollow-headed shot,weig.hiog 5101 b., or a shell of ordinary construction weigh.ng 6001, and ca pable of containing a bursting charge of no less than 401 b. of powder. The charge used yesterday with shot was 70,b., with shell 601 b. Although the experiments were to haZve com menced at half-past 10, the first shot was riot fired until after 12. By the time everything wag ready the interest of the spectators had reached the highsEt pitch, and it was amid exclamations of surpaive and wonder from even veteran artillerists than tic men serving the gun put into it and ramme d home first the powder, looking like a tolerable bolster, and next the conical cast-iron honow-headed shot, measuring nearly 30 inches in length by 13.3 inches in diameter, and weighing as mucit as a small family. The shot is first placed in a cradle and lifted to the mouth of the gun by means of movable shetzr legs provided with blocks and pulleys. The cra;lie hinges on to a couple of h oo k s on th e mouth of tile piece, and holds the ponderous shot in the proper .position for being rammed home. Though the g,un looked strong enough to have borne loading to this' muzzle, the spectators naturally ensconced themse/ yes be hind the traverses and breastworksthe place, taking about taking care to choose running out to sea across the The gun was given one degree of elevation, and the wordcall passed that all. was ready. The last bugle was fi sounded, and. the great gun was fired f or the ponderous shot burst from the mo u th st time, The of the piece with a terrific rush and - - roar, striking the sand at about 700 yards from the shore, I • eaping and dash ing onward, ricochetting five or six times, and finally burying itself near the 4,000 yards' target. A rush was of course immediately .made to the gun to see its condition, An attentive. examination, however, soon proved that not the slightest injary bad been sustained by it in any part; in fact, that it was what every one knew it would turn out to be—a perfect piece of workmanship. Two more shots were then to be fired at the same elevation, the second and third reportsbeing apparently rather less loud than the first. It was a matter of free; aent observation during the day that the report of ;his gigantic piece of artillery was much less than :ts size would have led one to predict. The next threes rounds were fired at an elevation of 2 deg., after which followed three at 5 deg., and three at 10 deg. Three dead shells weighing 6001 b, each were then fired with charges of 601 b., a 30011). round shot with a charge of 701 b. completing the day's experiments. The acuracy of the firing is also a very remark able feature. The deviation, as will be seen from the following results of firing each round, was un usually small : Round Charge. Elevation. Shot. lb. Degrees. 1 70 1 2 70 1 3 70 1 4 70 2 .5 70 2 6 70 2 7 70 5 8 70 5 9 70 5 10 70 10 11 70 10 12 70 10 Shell. 13 Deviation. 1 left 1-5 left on lino 1 2-5 left on line on lira 4 left on line On line 2 loft on line 4 Left 6(1 5 1,880 60 5 1,898 60 5 not found 2 leti 3 3.5 left Itound Shot 3041 b. 16 GO 1 96) 3 3-5 left Up to the sixth round the initial velocity was: taken by Captain Noble with the very ingenious electric-balisLic apparatus invented by Major Nave; of the Belgian army. The mean initial velocity as determined by this delicate instrument was found to be as possible 1,200 ft in a second. The last round was not fired until nearly dark. Thus ended one of the most important and inte resting series of experiments ever performed at Shoeburyness. Before the party left the ground the gun was again most attentively examined, but not the slightest flaw could be detected by the most critical artillerist present. A target of larger size is being built to test the. smashing capabilities of the great gun, and will be completed in about three weeks. There were present during the day Gen. Tulloh, Davies, Gen. Dacres, Colonels Letro v , Majors -Bingham , and Anderson,Hay and Millman, Captain Heath, Sir Wm. Armstrong, Mr. IV m. Fairbairn, and many other notabilities in the military and en gineering world. The gun was easily served by a party of 20 men. At first, not being;accustomed to such a monster, the men worked rather slowly, but as they became used to their work they at last succeeded in abridging thq sp ace of time between the rounds to 10 minut es. monster powers of ~B ig Will " (as t he might well be christened) will be enormous.

The personalty was sworn under £40,000. Sir William marr ied, in 1822 , Mary , daughter and heiress of E. Hooke, Esq., of Malbar ton Lodge. He was Egon of the Guard, sq., formerly Captain in the 15th Hussars ; and served in the Peninsul a, and at Wat er l oo , where he was wou nded. Sir William attai ned th e age o f seventy, and executed his will i n 1858 . After making some pecuniary and specific bequests, he leaves his pro perty amongst his three sons in certai • n proportions, bequeathing the residue of both real and personal estate between his eldest and youngest sons, who are his executors. The will of John Bowyer Nichols, Esq., of Han ger-hill, Ealing , Middlesex, and o f 25, Parliament street, was proved in London on the 6th inst. by his sons and executors, John Gough Nichols, Robert Cradock Nichols , and Francis Morgan Nichols, Esqrs. The personalty was sworn under £160,000. The will is purely of a family nature, dated 1860 and has three codicils, dated 1861-2.3. The testator has left his property amongst his sons and daughters, in various proportions, describing the estates and properties each are to possess, making a liberal provision for his unmarried daughter, and a farther provision for his other daughters beyond their marriage settlement, and appointing his three sons residuary legatees ; his eldest son to receive all his MSS. and to select works from his private library to the value of £2,000 ; also some presentation-plate to be held as heirlooms. l L a t h e n of do n B , e h d y f o therd - v Esq" The will of Willie mwasprhed in Tooke, row, Russell- equare , exec utors, Arthur Wi lliam Tooke, Esq,, the son, and Wm.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE Stti. NEW YORK, Nov. 3, 1863. Sfit,—Having endeavoured to convey to your readers briefly—probably in an inefficient manner, but neither lightly nor inconsiderately—my opinion upon what may be called the active anti-British sentiment pervading the " prominent," and as they call themselves " ruling politi cians " of the Northern States, it was not my intention to volunteer further remarks on that particular point. How ever, the last mails from Europe have brought here the reports of speeches made in Great Britain, by members of our Government, as well as by one of that denomination of the representatives of the Washington Cabinet known as the " quasi Envoy," Without it being necessary to quote at length from, or to refer more than generally to the details of the " ad dresses" of our Attorney-General and Mr. H. Beecher, it will be seen by any person who reads the speeches alluded to, that upon one point there is, to a great degree, a coin cidence of opinion between the exponent of British policy and the semi-official agent of the governing politicians of the Southern States. Mr. Beecher states what he must know is contrary to fact—viz., that general good feeling towards " Great Britain and the British" is the rule in the Northern States. Sir R. Palmer gives, I admit, a " safer" opinion, but an igao rant one :—" There is (he says) not that unfriendly feeling toward this country on the other side of the Atlantic which some seemed to think." It may appear rude and dogmatic to describe the two statements as I have done, but if persons volunteer opinions upon matters of importance to my countrymen relative to matters of fact in this country, and which opinions a nearly three years' experience here of " men, manners, and things," enables me to declare aro erroneous, I really am obliged, for the sake of required brevity, to in dulge in no circumlocution. I have nither object nor intention to follow those who, for party or other purposes, try to "make things pleasant," which had much better be known in their reality, and looked in the face. If Sir R. Palmer had been delivering an opinion upon a strictly legal matter—even if a lawyer, I would have been diffident in contradicting him; but I am certain that if he had taken the trouble to collect fair "evidence" upon the "case" in question, instead of stating to his audience—as he did in effect—that " some persons" exaggerated the ill f ee ling towards England, stated to exist on this side of the Atlantic, he would have been obliged, in truth, to admit that any exaggeration, in the ordinary sense of the word, could be hardly possible. It is ray wish to inflict on your readers and myself as little in the way of any disquisition upon the "feeling" or "sentiment" of the majority of persons in the Northern States, as possible. As to the Southern, not having been there, and under the peculiar circumstances of their ease, it would be presumptuous in me to refer to them on the sen timent part of the matter further, at present, than to hope that the future impartial historian will be able to describe to his readers, that the course pursued towards the South by our country has been consistent with our international precedents; and that the working of that always baneful thing called fanaticism, together with the more indirect action of various pecuniary "interests"—forming a part, but only a part, of the nation—have not, inter alia, led to pocrisy in "some," and to inju s ti ce i n many, " on our side of the Atlantic." There is one circumstance which may possibly have escaped the notice of those who have listened to, or read, the assertions of those quasi agents of the Washington diplomacy (and in that category I include that small por tion of the British" press, and the p o liti ca l organ i sat i on in Great Britain and Deland, which, very common report states, are afflicted, a subsidised ramification of the ruling political parties and factions of the " U.S.A.") and that is—Why, if there is so much good feeling towards Eng land as these clerical anti lay quasi-envoys allege, do they not produce to their British audiences some signs and " Why do not these practical men," tokens of it ?when they return to their country, at least deprecate to their Ame rican audiences the senseless violence of the anti- British feeling which they admit exists among some of the news papers and some of the "orators," and so forth ? As a matter of fact, I defy any one of th ese quasi envoys, or their friends in England, to show that in this country— say for the last two years—there has ben one bona fide effort made by any public man to do anything, by speaking or writing, of a sustained nature to create any good feeling in the minds of the American people towards Great Britain and the British. If there are the "thinking, sober, second thought" people in the U.S. that Bishop M'llvaine, Mr. Weed, and Mr. Beecher wrote and talked of, why do they "make no si en '?" However, it must be admitted—and assuming there is "free speech" in this country—that if the most frantic hatred of our country and people is the general character.. istic to which the masses of all political classes of each sex, and of ever y a ge, have either worked themselves, or been worked into, we British may wonder and regret it for both nations' sake, but we cannot formally or officially complain. But what I do complain of is the organised attempt to humbug m y countrymen which has been, and is b e i ng, prac tised. I must admit it is difficult for thos e w h o know the truth in this country to read with re asona b le temper t h e as sertions made a s to the " good feeling," to England. Such may exist in the minds of the quasi-envoys, or in the moon, but assuredly has no place in the politicians in the aggregate, or in the majority of the people of the Northern States—that is, if words and actions are criterions. One of these demi-diplomats—Mr. Thurlow Weed —has been often talked of, and described by himself and others as having rendered " immense services" to the cause of the Washington Government when in Europe. Although most of your readers never, probably, heard of the gentleman, it is a matter, new , of published Ameri can hi story, that he was despatched by the Washington Cabinet, with Bishop M'llvaine and Archbishop Hughes, each in his way and " district" propagate the " good cause and Abraham Lincoln," as one of the semi-official press in New York de scribed it. Mr. T. 'Weed probably affords a tolerably fair specimen of the " material " considered necessary for, and of the course persued by the Washington quasi -envoy, and therefore I shall conclude this letter by a necessarily (for post) rapid sketch of this one out of the many so-called diplomats sent, as they are described in American phraseo logy, to "instruct John Bull and the female Bulls." It was announced in sundry Northern journals, in and about January, 1862, that "Mr. Thurlow Weed was to go to England and France as a diplomatic agent." Having inquired from persons well acquainted with the " pro vincial'' politicians, I was informed Mr. 'Weed was con sidered one of the most astute and able " managers ;" or, as they are named, " wire-pullers " of the New York State Legislature, and the right-hand man of Mr. Seward in domestic-political managements as to elections, and so on. It was also stated that he had rendered many under obliga tions to him, in the matter of contracts, &c. Be this as it may, at the period mentioned (January 1862), a letter ap peared in the various journals, Mr. 'Weed's own amongst the number, stating that be had observed the references to him, ascribing a sort of official character to his intended "visit to Europe," but that it was a mistake, that he ix tended going, but only on his own affairs," Well, he did go, and at intervals there were letters in the journals here from him,mentioning, among many things that are now for gotten by me, but which can be referred to if it were neces sary, as I kept all the newspaper notices, that he was re ceived "in the highest society with the greatest cordiality," that Earl Russell had favoured him with several interviews, and that not only he found persons in England inclined to make things pleasant, but that he had managed to make them still pleasanter for the cause of the 'Washing ton Cabinets. This was about the substance of the com munications, as far as the public were concerned, that reached here until the return of the "quasi-envoy," as he at length admitted himself to be, to New York in June, 1862. " Ovations," "serenades," and the other demonstrations usual in this country, where popular and " prorainent " men arrive in large cities — greeted Mr. Weed. Your readers will probably excuse nay referring further to the speeches made on those ocea:aens, except that they appeared very satisfactory to all "con cerned," Ono of the journals stated, that "probablyNrasithiwngoutolnd never be known outside, and only in thee h a d rendered Cabinet, what immense services Mr. ire his country." It is true all the neusverlp°poers were not so Wood was nothing complimentary ; one or two ass erted but a "jobber" as he always was, but that he merely went &e• c h e ap, to sell them in, and to the "U. 5.," very dear. e to mike money by buying rifles, N ve rtheless, all parties agreed that Mr. Weed was l l a ,e;ery " s mart man," and had B u • " got the better of J ohn Some two months since, a long account appeared in what is called the Government organ here, the New York Ti mes, obviously furnished by the "quasi-envoy." It stated among very many other things that he (Mr. Weed) had by hi s diplomatic aeutness, and energy, prevented the French Government remonstrating, on the subject of the "stone fleet," and the intended but abortive effort to choke up the harbours of the Southern States, and mentioned incident ally that he had reminded the French minister (Count de Morny) " that there was no mieereancy England had not been guilty of in order to extend her dominions," that "she was steeped up to the armpits in the blood of innocent, unarmed Sepoys," and the account proceeds to give other congenial and relevant arguments stated to have been used by him with such effect, that the intended article in the French Emperor's address to the Senate, &c., remonstrating against the " stone fleet" was not only struck out, but (Mr. Weed stated) he rece i ved praise from French ministers, snd certainly received applause from "politicians" here for THE CALCUTTA, CHINA,'AND AUSTRA- LIAN MAILS. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam ship Ripon, Captain E. Christian, arrived at Southampton at noon yesterday with the heavy portion of these mails. She brought 78 passengers (viz., 29 first-class, 35 second-class and bervants, 11 children, and 3 deck). On freight she had £12,473 2s, 6d. in specie, 830 bales and 10 cases of silk, 8 cases of plants, 21 packages of elephants' tusks, 4 casks of wine, and 145 packages of general mer chandise. The Ripon left Alexandria on the 7th inst., Malta the 10th, and Gibraltar the 15th. Be tween Alex andria and Malta she experienced n o rth wester ly winds, with occasional heavy squalls, acco mpan ied by rain and thick weather ; from Malta to Gibr a l tar strong variable winds, with heavy squalls, rain, and thick weather ; and the r emainder of the voyage light airs and fine weather. During the passage home the following steam ships were spoken by the Ripen :—Nov. Bth, th e Ceylon, lat. 33.5 N., long. 24.35 E.; 9th, the Vectis, lat. 34.25 N., long. 20 E.; 11th, the Poonah, lat. 37.32, long. 9.50 E. ; 15th, the Iberia, off Tarifa ; and 16th, the Florida, off Cape Roca. At Alexandria on the 7th were the French fri gate Perdrix and the usual Egyptian fleet. Her Majesty's ships Queen and Gibraltar were at Malta on the 10th, and the Racoon, Redpole, and Procris at Gibraltar on the 15th. The Swedish frigate Vanadis, Captain Haver man, 43 days from Carlscrona, calling at Copen hagen, Portsmouth, and Lisbon, arrived at Gibraltar on the 12th instant, and remained there when the Ripon left. On her arrival the frigate saluted the garrison with 21 guns, which compliment was re• turned immediately from the saluting battery, and she also saluted the Swedish Consul with nine guns. The Spanish screw sloop Concordia, 2, Lieut. Campos, left Malaga on the sth inst., for the penal settlement of Melilla, having on board M. A. Merry y Colon, the Spanish Caarge d'Affaires at the Court of Morocco, the Spanish Consul, and two Moors. She also carried 85,000 dollars from the Morocco treasury to indemnify the Riffians, and terminate the difference regarding the limits ceded by the late treaty. The Spanish papers contain an account, extracted from the Cuba journals, of the destruction of a Spa nish steamer by fire, attended by fearful loss of life, In its main features the story has a great rcsem. blance to that of the Amazon, which was burnt some years ago on her voyage from Southampton to the West Indies. Like the Amazon, the Spa nish steamer (the Mexico) was on her first voyage. She was plying on the line between Vera Cruz and the Havannab, and left the former port on Oct. 12. On the following day, when 90 miles from land, be tween Capes Catoche and San Antonio, a fire broke out in the cargo and spread with great rapidity, baf fling all the efforts made to check it. The account of what followed is derived from 16 persons who were saved in one of the boats. They say that they suc ceeded in launching one of the beats and getting clear of the ship; that they lay off at a short dis tance, some 40 or 50 yards, in order to save others who might have courage to throw themselves into the water. The scone on board in the meantime was most heartrending. Seventy passengers were left on board ; the flames were rapidly spreading over the vessel, driving the poor creatures for a short refuge to the poop. The shrieks and gestures of despair of some were mixed with frantic and con fused efforts of others to save themselves. These last, acting under the influence of terror and despair, and without order or method, defeated their own object. One boat that was lowered was dashed to pieces against the accommodation ladder. Anolher, when lowered, got loose from the tackles and floated away empty. A third, which remained alongside, was sunk by the numbers who jumped into it. A few minutes after this last catastrophe the whole ship was a mass of fire, and after a short time filled and went down. The 16 persons who had got away in the first boat endured great hardship, and were five days without provisions. They at last reached the shore between the River Legarto and Cape Catoche. Here they fell in with a boat which con veyed them to Sisal. The following British merchant steamers had arrived out at Gibraltar :—Nov. 7, the Sicilian, Cap tain J. Groome, 9 . 1 . -;, days from Liverpool, for Palermo and Trieste ; same day, the Marathon, Captain W. F. M'Arthur, 7 days from Liverpool, for Malta, 8;:c.; 9th, the Poonah, Captain S. S.
