" It is rather remarkalila that it should have been noticed in England and Ireland about the same time. It was first seen growing in a small pond in the garden of the chairman of the committee of botany for the Roy a l D u bli n S oc i ety, at Booterstown, near Dublin. From this place some of it was conveyed to the Botanic Garden, Glasnevin, Dublin, and little was thought of it until its rapid growth in the rivers in Eng land drew attention to it. Where it does exist in Ireland it increases as rapidly as it does in E ng l an d . Th ere are no w some millions of plants in the pond of the Botanic Garden, and as many more have been destroyed since it was first introduced.

Dr. Smith, Director-General of the Army and Ordnance Medical Department, presents his com pliments to the editor of The Sun, and as much misapprehension seems to exist as to the sufficiency of medical. attendants, and of medical stores and supplies with the army and in the hospitals in the East, and as great anxiety has thereby been caused to the relatives of the sick and wounded, lie sends the accompanying papers, showing the number of medical officers, and the quantity of medicine and hospital stores, which have been forwarded from this country at different times since the 24th February last. In a memorandum, respecting medical stores supplied to the army in the East, the Director- General also states that : " The number of medical officers with the British forces in the East, at the time of the battle of the Alma, was 276—being 1 to every 97 of strength. In the Peninsula the number of medical officers was 1 to every 154 of strength. "At the present moment theie are 30 more medical officers on their way to Constantinople, and 15 more are waiting embarkation. " Dr. Smith is happy in being able to state con fidently that the medical officers at Scutari (he believes 21 in number) have at their command everything necessary to the treatment of the wounded soldier; hence there is no necessity what ever for any effort being made by the public to send out to Constantinople lint, old linen, &c." DEPARTMENTAL MEMORANDUM. The following list of medicines, surgical instruments, surgical materials, medical comforts, hospital stores, and means for the conveyance of sick and wounded, is fur nished to enable the medical officers of the army in Turkey 1. To ascertain the provision which has been made to meet the wants of sick and wounded, and the materiel which is with the army available for that purpose. 2. To report to me, through the Inspector-General of Hospitals, what other articles, if any, may be advantage ously applied to the supplies which have been forwarded. Special attention is requested to the carts and waggons which have been furnished for the conveyance of sick and wounded. No doubt, many defects will be discovered in both, therefore the medical officers serving with the army -will, in all probability, have an opportunity of improving upon appliances that are known theoretically only to the British army, though practically to the French since 1792, when a supply of light waggons, accompanied by a corps of disciplined attendants, were sent into the field on the re commendation of the late renowned Baron Larry. But notwithstanding the French have used so long what we are now only beginning* to employ, still there is reason to be lieve much must yet be effected before we shall be able to consider the object in view to have been satisfactorily attained.

In addition to tho before-mentioned supply, each corps is provided with a regimental , and with a detachment, me dicine chest, each chest amply furnished with medicines and surgical materials, according to the regulations of the service, also with a box of apparatus fir fractures and dis locations. _ _ . I Spring waggons, on 4 wheels, 20.± I Flanders waggons, The surgeon of the corps has a full set of capital instru ments ; the senior assistant a portable set ; the surgeon and three assistants each a case of pocket instruments, and a case of lancets; there are likewise, for general use, a set of capping instruments and a stomach pump. The slightly wounded are accommodated towards the front of the carriage, placed back to back, separated from each other by wooden partitions, and prevented from fall ing outwards by each compartment being provided with a chain covered with leather, to be passed across the chest, when the seat is occupied, with a view as well to safety as support. The badly wounded, extended on elastic stretch ers, 6 feet 6 inches long and 2 wide, are placed behind, and, as already stated, in separate compartments, into or out of which the stretchers glide with facility, from their being provided with rollers. Each of the compartments is fitteff with a ventilator from end to end, which can be closed or opened by the person lying on the stretcher. A waterproof roof, supported on wood hoops, covers the body of the carriage, and under it is a depository for fire locks, knapsacks, caps, accoutrements, &c. There is also under the seats for the slightly wounded men a large capa cious locker, in which may be placed water sacks—for barrels soon become useless, especially if exposed to wea ther and sun—bedding, and other articles, which the me dical officers of the army may consider as likely to be use ful; and under the hinder part of the waggon is a con venient box, in which medicines, instruments, &c., can be carried if required. At the back part of each vehicle, there are two iron brackets, which fold down to support a stretcher, and so afford the means of forming a convenient table. This pLin I frem the first preferred, to one which was strongly urged on me, namely, to form a table by placing a stretcher across two panniers. SECOND SUPPLY.—SENT OUT IN .TUNE.

NAVAL AND MILITARY INTICLLIGENCE. The Curacoa, 31; screw frigate, Captain the Hon. G. F. Hastings, is complete in her rig at Portsmouth, with the exception of blacking down. She has her guns on board, and will be swung for the adjustment of her com passes this week, after which she will be ready for sea. Geyser, 6, paddle, has been masted at Portsmouth, and is ready for the pendant. Rolla and Sealark, tenders, went out of Portsmouth Harbour yesterday morning, for their usual Channel cruise. Mr. William Read has been appointed naval instruc tor to the Meander, 44, at Devonport. The Rhadamanthus, paddle-wheel steam store-vessel, Master-Commander John Belam, on arriving at Dept ford on Saturday afternoon, was ordered to prepare im mediately for taking on board a cargo of provisions and stores, and the men were employed from four o'clock a.m. on Sunday until seven o'clock in the evening. The Zephyr, paddle-wheel steam-♦essel, Commander Lieutenant Charles G. Crawley, is ordered to proceed to Devonport to repair at that port for further service. The True Briton, No. 114 Transport, left Woolwich for Deptford to-day. The Widgeon returned to Woolwich to-day from the Prince, screw steam-ship, at Greenhithe, with the ship wrights who were sent down on Saturday to complete the fittings of that vessel. SALE OF THE MIRANDA'S PRIZE. Yesterday notices was given on the Royal Exchange that the Russian vessel Bognoja Nadischa, of which George Jorgetstein was late the master, a prize to her Majesty's steamer Miranda, in the White Sea, would within 20 days be condemned as a lawful prize, and sold for the benefit of her captors. The Court of Ad►uiralty has issued a decree for the sale of the Russian vessel Johan Cliristof, seized at Grimsby by the Customs' authorities, as a Crown droit. The next Russian vessels to be sold are the Abo, prize to the Tribune, and the Augusta, captured by the Arrogant and the Hecla, at Ekness. MEDICAL STORES FOR THE EAST. Yesterday a vast quantity of medical stores and com fort for the wounded at Alma were taken out of the 'rower stores and forwarded to Liverpool for immediate conveyance to the head-quarters of the medical depart ment. Among the articles cent out are a number of woollen cerge gowns and trousers for the use of the convalescent. PROMOTION AND REWARD TO LORD RAGLAN. . . It is understood that Lord Raglan will be raised to the rank of Field-Marshal after the operations at Sebas topol. The committee of the House of Commons re ported in favour of additional field-marshals of repute being made. We believe it is decided to give his lord ship .50,000/. in lieu of pension ; his private fortune wa■ merely 10,000 i. SUBMARINE SERVICE IN THE BLACK SEA. Serjeaat William Carrie, Ist Company Royal Sappers and Miners, left Chatham on Saturday afternoon, to embark on board the Prince, steam-ship, for the Crimea. This non-commissioned officer is joined by Privates Lewis, Price, and Toohey, of the same company, and also with two civilians, selected by Government. These men are well known for their ability in the duties of submarine explosions, and are excellent divers. They go out for the purpose of re moving the five ships of war that are sunk by the Rus sians at the mouth of the harbour of Sebastopol. They take with them four sets of diving apparatus and all other necessary implements, and twenty galvanic batte ries, with five miles of copper wire. The charges to be used will be from one and a half to two tons of gun powder, and will be fired at a distance of about two miles. The operations will be confined to the special charge of Serjeant Carne. Messengers will be at his command to transmit every information to Lord Raglan as the works of the submarine siege proceeds. Serjeant Carne left the head-quarters at Chatham full of spirits, having parted with his friends, being in fall confidence of his success, not only of his completing the destruction of the ships, but also in removing and recovering the guns. It appears that a number of divers, supplied with the diving apparatus of Messrs. Heincke, have been ordered to Sebastopol, for the purpose of removing the obstruc tion caused by the sinking of several Russian vessels at the entrance of the harbour. So pressing was the de mand that the diver of the Royal Panopticon, who since the re-opening of that institution has astonished the public by the display of the brilliant subaqueous light, has been put in requisition, and sent off at a few hours' notice. Whilst the promptitude of the Government in Providing the means of re-opening the harbour is deserv ing of all commendation, the fact that our fleet was sent out unprovided with so essential an appendage as a suf ficient staff of divers, affords a singular instance of the supineness which has prevailed in official quarters in making—or rather negleoting to make—preparations fur the war with Russia. FOR THE BLACK SEA. We believe that the fall of Sebastopol and the destruc tion or capture of the Russian fleet in the Black Sea are looked upon as so certain to take place that no reinforce ments of ships, with the exception of a steam-frigate or two, is to be despatched thither at present. The fol lowing, however, will proceed to the Black Sea at once : The Miranda, 17, screw, Captain Lyons (son of Sir E. Lyons). She was swung for the adjustment of her compasses yesterday, and reheat her sails. She will call at Devonport for a mail, and leave there about the 19th. The Valorous, 16, paddle, Captain Buckle.—She left Sheerness yesterday, and passed through the Downs en route. The four screw - despatch cruisers, Arrow, Beagle, Lynx, and Viper, are by this time with the fleet in the Black Sea, with eight of Lancaster's guns, to assist in the bombardment of Sebastopol. Three of these vessels were built by Mare and Co. - engines by Penn and Humphreys. And the fourth WAS built by Messrs. Green, engines by Maudslay. The General Screw Company's fine 1,800 tons screw ship Queen of the South, commanded by Captain Nor mon, has been chartered by Government for the convey ance of troops to the Black Sea. Orders have been issued at Southampton that she be got ready for sea with the greatest possible despatch, but, in consequence of her having jus t returned from Australia, thereb y com pleting a voyage rou nd the world, she will r equire docking and clean in g .

TRIAL OF THE PELTER. The Pelter. screw stes.m light draught of water gun boat, had her steam up yesterday in the Lasin, under the superintendence of Mr. Hartree, of the firm of John Penn and Son, the makers of the engines on the high vulgar° prinoiple, bhe hte four boilers, each indepon• The steam was got up in the Tartar, 20, screw steam corvette, sister ship to the Cossack, and originally built by Mr. Pitcher, and fitted with engines of 250- horse power by Messrs. Maudslay, Sons, and Field, on their patent horizontal cylinder, double piston rod principle, for the purpose of having her navigated to Chatham, to be completed at that port for sea, but in consequence of the lowness of the neap tide she could not be taken out of the basin. Mr. Henry Maudslay, having been on board to superintend the working of the engines on her passage round, had them tried at her moorings in the basin, and they worked admirably, making 48 to 49 revolutions per minute. :DICINES CONTINUED. „ opii, 1501bs „ lavand., comp., 201bs „ arnica, 51135 „ cannab. ind., slbs „ rhei comp., 1001bs „ scillae, 301bs „ Bennie comp., 501bs „ zingib., 501bs Vin. colchici, 121bs „ ipecac., 301bs „ opii, 201bs cetacoi, 4001bs „ bydrarg. nitrati., 201bs „ sulph. comp., 201bs Ziuci chlor. aol.

The courts-martial on the officers of Captain Sir Edward Beicher's excedition, for leaving their ships in the ice, commence today at eleven o'clock a.m., and the papers to be produced on the occasion were very volumi nous. THE ADMIRAL OF THE FLEET, Our Portsmouth correspondent, writing yesterday at six p.m., says, we regret to state that Admiral of the Fleet, Sir Byain Martin, is in a very precarious state, and but little hopes entertained of his surviving the night. sir Byam Martin has been in the navy since 1782, consequently he must b e a ver y o ld man. Two of his sons are admirals, namely, Rear-Admiral Superintendent W. E. Martin and Rear-Admiral H. B. Martin, the junior flag officer of the Baltic fleet. ADMIRAL BERKELEY'S VISIT TO THE COLOSSUS.

The Americans have not less than 13 ships of war, of all classes, in the China seas, and of these five are steamers. There are only the same number of British men of war there, whilst the French have only a 44-gun frigate and a steam•sloop. • ARRIVALS FROM THE BALTIC. No 2 company of the Royal Sappers and Miners, under the command of Captain F. W. King, Royal En gineers, arrived at head-quarters at Woolwich yesterday. They landed at Roff's Wharf at one o'clock p.m., from the Baltic, and were played up to barracks by the brass band of that branch of the ordnance service at Woolwich. MAIL FOR THE BLACK SEA. A. notice has been posted at the gate of Woolwich dockyard, stating that letters for the Black Sea and Malta will be despatched by her Majesty's screw steam ship Miranda, Captain Edmund M. Lyons, from De►on port, on the 18th inst. COMMANDER RICHARD E. VIDAL.-This officer, who died on 31,:t August at Port Sarnia, Canada West, en tered the navy May 1, 1799, on board the Princess, guard-ship, at Waterford. From September, 1800, until May, 1801, he cruised on the coast of Ireland in the Glenmore, and in August of the latter year he be came midshipman of the Vengeance. • In her, besides witnessing the mutiny in Bantry Bay, he served at the blockade of Brest and Rochefort, aiid visited the West Indies. Joining next, in July, 1802, the Glutton, he made a voyage in that ship round the world. On his return to England he removed, in November, 1803, to the Seaflower. In the course of the service in the Sea flower he was captured in an attempt to cut a French privateer from the road of St. Denis, in the Isle of Bourbon, with a loss of one-half of the men under his command ; he was wounded, and was in consequence promoted to the rank of lieutenant by Sir E. Pellew, on his liberation from a French prison in the Isle of France in 1808. the release from captivity took place Feb. 29, 1808 ; in the following March and June he joined the Russell and Culloden ; and on Oct. 24, in the same year, he was nominated acting lieutenant of the Cornwallis. After his return from the Wet Indies he was employed from January, 1812, until January, 1814, in the Asia, 74, on the Channel and West India stations ; from Nov. 5, 1814, until Oct. 7, 1815, as first lieutenant, in the Griffon, in the Caanuel ; from Nov. 1822, until January, 1826, in command of the Eagle, revenue cruiser; and from Feb. 2, 1827, until Oct. 26, 1828, again as senior, in the Eden, on the coast of Africa. He attained the rank of retired commander July 22, 1830. Lieutenant Henry Duncan Blanckley (1844) died Sept. 25. He was son of the late Captain Edward Blanckley, R.N., and grand nephew of the first Lord Nelson. He entered the navy in 1832 ; passed his examination May 1839 ; and served as mate on the home, Clips of Good Hope, and Mediterranean stations ; of Salamander and Devastation, steam-vessels, both commanded by Captain 11. R. Henry ; Heroine, brig, Lieut. CoMmander"T. D. Stewart ; Isis, 44, Captain Sir J. Marshall ; Caledonia, 120, flag-ship of Sir D. Milne ; and Flamer, steamer, Lieut. Commander C. J. Poetic. He was appointed soon after his promotion, which took place Dec. 2, 1844, to Rattler, steam-sloop, Captain H. Smith ; June 12, 1846, was appointed to Inflexible, a similar vessel, Captain John Cochrane Hoseason, on the East India station ; and May 3, 1854, to Belleisle, hospital•ship in the Baltic. MILITARY. THE 461'11 FOOT.—Tho 46th Regiment, to a man, we believe, has now in reality left Windsor, and, we are happy to say, in a manner creditable to the town and the regiment ; for, whatever unfavourable impression was created by the proceedings on the late courts-mar tial, so far as this town was concerned, never has there been a regiment located in it the non-commissioned offi cers and privates of which have conducted themselves in a more exemplary manner. With respect to the officers, too, as a body, their conduct, apart from that affair, has been that of gentlemen as well as officers.—Windsor Express. BILFAST, Oct. 14.—Assistant-Surgeon Teevan, of the 3d Buffs, and Assistant-Surgeon Rutherford, of the 62d, are ordered to London immediately, thence to proceed to do duty with the army in the East.

He was met at the station by Major Burslem and Ad jutant Jones of the 13th Regiment ; and having inti mated that he wished the inspection to proceed that evening, they at once repaired to the barracks, and in en incredibly short space et time the infantry and Captain Grant's company of the 16th Lancers were paraded. The general expressed himself much pleased with the efficient state in which he found the garrison, and com plimented the officers, as well upon the discipline of the men as the harmony which prevailed amongst them selves. - The general, who appears a hale old soldier, left for Waterford by the 7 p.m. train.—Frce Press.

EVENING CLASSES for YOUNG MBN.—The sixth annual report of the metropolitan committee has just been issued. It states that, although there have been some struggles and anxieties during the past twelve months to maintain the cause of the evening classes for young men in London, the close of the year has left them more widely established and more firmly rooted than before. The average numlibr of members during the year was 1,086, of whom 321 joined both the classes and the reading room, 320 the classes only, and 445 the reading room only. In the outlying districts the classes have been attended by 396 members. The annual ♦oluntary examination was very satisfactory. In conclusion, the report earnestly points out the advantages of the ineti. tution, and the claims which it has upon the support o f the young ;ma n lioaden. PUBLICATIONS.
