The "Commissioners in Aid " of the "Patriotic Fund" are earnestly requested, without further notice, to take immediate steps for giving publicity, within their several j erisdictions, to the Royal Commission, in order that Local Committees be formed wherever practicable with the least possible delay. " Local Committees" will, according to their discretion, obtain contributions to the " Patriotic Fund," either by public meetings establishing subscription lists, or other wise. The acknowledgment of individual donations, where obtained through the " Commissioners in Aid," or by "Local Committees," must, in all cases, to avoid error and expense, be left exclusively to the " Local Commit tees." Local Committees are requested to make up their first subscription lists or accounts in or before the first week in December next, and to remit the amounts in or before the following week by drafts payable to the "Patriotic Fund," crossed " Bank of England," to the Secretaries of the Cdtnmission, or direct to the Bank of England.

The Canadian Steam-ship Company's screw-steamer Cleopatra, Captain H. Salt, arrived at Liverpool yester day morning from Quebec, after having put into St. John's, Newfoundland, for coal. She made the passage from St. John's in seven days and a half. By her we have - . received St. John's papers of the 3d inst., which give the melancholy details of the total loss of the American steamer Arctic f Captain Luce, with a fearful sacrifiee of life, off the banks. We take the fol lowing details of this distressing catastrophe from the onrth edition of the Liverpool Times of yesterday : It is with the greatest sorrow that we announce that the United States mail steamer Arctic, Captain Luce, was lost on Wednesday, the 27th ult., on her voyage from Liverpool to New York, about 65 miles from Cape Race, on the coast of Newfoundland. This terrible event was the conse quence of a collision in a dense fog. There were from three to four hundred persons on board, including passengers, officers, and crew, of whom only fourteen passengers, three officers of the ship, and twenty-eight seamen are known to have been saved, having arrived at Newfoundland, but it is possible that some others may be picked up. The following is the statement of Mr. Baahlam, the second officer of the ship, copied from the St. John's (New foundland) Public Ledger of the 3d October : St. John's, Tuesday, Oct. 3. The following is the statement of r. Baahlam, second officer of the ill-fated steamer Arctic, who was despatched from Renews in search of the unfortunate vessel, or her boats, and who arrived in St. John's this morning at ten o'clock, which statement is given in his own words : " Ou Wednesday, at noon, Cape Race bearing S.W. by W., 65 miles distant, while running in a very thick fog, were struck on the starboard bow, about 60 feet abaft the cutwater, by an iron steamer, which made three large holes in the ship, two below the water, one of which was about five and a-half feet in length, one or one and a-half in depth, leaving the whole cutwater and stem of the iron steamer clean through the Arctic's side. So dense was the fog that the vessel could not be seen a minute before the collision. "The wheel wasputhard to starboard, the engine stopped instantly, and backed at full speed, until clear of the other steamer, which occupied a couple of minutes. The French steamer seemed to be sinking, bow first. Captain Luce immediately gave orders to clear away the quarter boats, which was done, and Mr. Gourley, chief officer, left the ship in charge of the starboard boat; and in lowering the port boat the captain exclaimed, Hoist up that boat again, Mr. Baahlam,' and beckoned me to go to him. Upon doing so, he ordered me to go over the bow to ascertain, if possible, what damage had been done. I then found the holes above mentioned. Upon informing him of the facts, he ordered the ship's head to be kept for the land, which bore N.W. by W. By this time we had lost sight of the officers' boat and the other steamer, which we supposed had sunk. We had not been on our course more than four or five minutes before we ran over a boat and crew belonging to the other vessel, all of whom perished, with the exception of one, who caught hold of a rope hanging over the bow. " Directly the boat was seen, orders were given to stop the engine, which the chief engineer said could not be done, as the ship was fast sinking. In about 30 minutes all the lower fires were out, and at the least there were six feet of water in the ship fore and aft. By this time the confusion amongst the passengers was very great, but they used all efforts to assist the crew in keeping the pumps going, and in lightening the ship forward, for the purpose of endeavouring to get at the leak from inside, which wes found to be useless, and num bers of them got into the • boats, which were still hang ing to the davits. In 45 minutes after the collision I came up from the forehold, and informed the captain that the water was on a level with thu lower deck beams, and that it was impossible to get at the leak. I then asked him what he thought would bo likely to be the fate of the ship, when he stated his belief to me that there was no hope of saving her. He then told me to see to my boats. " On going to those on the part side I found them com pletely filled with men and women, and no possibility of getting near them. I immediately went to the starboard side, and ordered two of the crew to lower the guard-boat, and asked the captain what his intentions were, who re plied that the ship's fate should be his. I then asked him if he would not allow his son to go with me, as I intended to take a boat, but he returned me the answer that he should share his fate. I then jumped into the boat, and was ordered by the captain to cut away the tackle falls, and drop under the stern. I did so, at which time about 20 persons, as I supposed, jumped overboard, of whom 17 or 18 were picked up. Fell in with another boat which had been lowered from the other side, and lightened her of part of her complement, leaving 19 in her, and 26 in my own boat, " The last sight we had of the ship her guards were level with the water, and the surface of the sea strewed with human beings who had jumped or fallen overboard, to whom, however, it was impossible for us to lend any assistance, and we soon lost sight of all, the fog continuing to he very dense. " I then asked the boats' crews whether they were will ing to be governed by me, which was unanimously approved, anti I was put in complete command of Loth boats. We were then about 60 miles S.E. of Cape Race. Deeming it my duty, for the safety of all, to take the nearest course for the land, and after pulling 42 hours, with nothing to guide us but the run of the sea, which I took to bo heaving from the southward, and in a thick fog, which lasted all the time, we reached Brpad Cove, some 12 miles north of Cape Race. " We then proceeded by land to Renews, which we reached on Friday last. I there obtained and took charge of a small schooner, which was hired by the purser and myself, and proceeded immediately in search of the wreck or her boats. We cruised round until yesterday in a strong gale of wind from N.E., but could find no trace of ship or boats. I sent word to Captain Leitch, of the city of Phila delphia steamer, acquainting him with the catastrophe, who, I am informed, sent off two vessels which he bad em ployed about his owu ship. Mr. Alan Goodridge, of Re news, also sent away a vessel on Saturday evening, but she has not yet returned. It is with the greatest regret I have to report no trace • of the Arctic or her other boats could bo found ; but as there were very many vessels in the neighbourhood where the disaster occurred, it is not im probable that many lives may have been saved. No doubt, however, is left on nay mind as to the loss of the steamer Arctic." The following are the passengers who are known to be saved : Passengers Saved—Messrs. C. De Possiur or Dupasseur, fir • A. Young, W. W. Gilbert, J. Bogart, C. T. Mitchell, E. M. Tuss, W. P. Rathbone, J. Hennesy, H. More, De Meyer, W. Gihon, jun., J. M`Math, George Dobbs, and the Duke de Grammont's servant. Crew Saved—Mr. Geib, purser; Mr. Baablam, 2d officer; Mark Graham, 4th officer; and twentyeight seamen. [FROM THE ST. JOHN'S (NEWFOUNDLAND) PUBLIC LEDGER, OCT. 3.] The French merchant screw-steamer Vesta, from St. Peter's bound to Granville, arrived herd on Saturday morn ing, with loss of foremast and bows completely shattered to paces, having been in collision with the Collins' paddle steamer Arctic, from Liverpool to New York, about fifty four miles S.E. of Cape Race. It appears that the Vesta left St. Peter's on Tuesday last, and on the following day, at noon, in the neighbourhood of the Virgin Rocks, in an exceedingly dense fog, steaming eight knots, came into collision with a large steamer, which was recognised as the Arctic of New York, whose speed is stated not to have been less than twelve knots. The Vesta appeared to be sinking, but immediately rose again, but no hope was entertained of her ultimate safety, the passengers and crew looking upon the Arctic as their only chance of saving their lives. One man was killed, and others severely wounded. Two boats were put ever the side, the first of which was sunk, and the second was immediately boarded by two of the crew and several o f the passengers, who, not heeding the order of the captain to return on board, aban doned the vessel. The fog continuing very thick, they lost sight of the Arctic altogether, still hoping, however, that she would not desert them. A cry of distress was now heard, which was attributed to some men of the Vesta, who, it appears, had jumped overboard to get on board the Arctic. Providentially, the bulkhead in the fo recastle was not started, which the Cap tollartd:eri(sinDfinuocrehdeteel)noticed as affordi ng a c h ance o f sa f e ty. immediately, with the utm os t p romp tit u d e, gave lightening the vessel by the head, which was as readily obeyed by throwing overboard all the fish, cargo, luggage which was in the fore part of h &c raised her bo ws cons iderably. and passengers, whieh This elevation, w ith the firm ness of the bulkhead, contri buted much to stop the he avy rush of water. About 150 evessel, of t h I mattresses, paliasses, and other' effects of the crew and passengers, were now placed abaft the safety partition, over which were thrown sails, backed by boards and planks, the whole being secured by cables well and firmly wrapped round all. The foremast, which had received some d amage , was cut away, and contr i buted considerably to raise the head still more. This occupied two days. They then ran under small steam for the nearest port (St. John's), which they entered on Saturday last most providentially before the rising of a severe gale which blew on that day. Upon mustering the hands thirteen were missed. The Vesta had on board 147 passengers and a crew of 50 men. The conduct of Captain Duchesne is much applauded, and the condition of the ves sel, as she now appears, elicits the admiration of all who visit her. Indeed nothing but the most indomitable energy, unwavering perseverance, and most superior seamanship, could have succeeded in bringing the vessel into port. The unfortunate men have been taken into the hospitable keep ing of Mr. Toussaint (through whose kindness we have been enabled to gather the foregoing account), who spares no pains to provide for their comfort. Nothing further was known of the Arctic until the even ing of Saturday, when new; reached town that she had suf fered considerably from the shock, and had been abandoned by the passengers and crew. On Sunday some of those who had taken to the boats arrived here from Renews. From one of the passengers we have gathered the following infor mation respecting the collision : It appears that on Wednesday last, about noon, as the passengers were at lunch in the cabin, a violent shock was felt, and upon rushing upon deck a steamer was very indis tinctly seen, thrdugh a dense fog, broad off the starboard bow, which turned out to be the Vesta, abovementioned. At first no danger was apprehended on board of the Arctic, and the chief officer was sent with a boat to the rescue of the crew of the Vesta. It was soon discovered, however, that there was little hope of saving the Arctic, and the lady, daughter, and son of Mr. E. B. Collins, with several ladies, were put on board a boat, in the act of lowering which one of the tackles gave way, and all, ex cept one lady, who clung to a sailor holding fast to the boat, were precipitated into the sea and lost. Another party of ladies and a few gentlemen were put on board another boat, with some provisions, but not having been manned by sailors there is little chance of their speedily reaching the land. The ship could not be stopped to lower the boats, the pumps being attached to the engine for the purpose of keeping tho vessel clear of the water, which was rushing furiously into her from an injury done on the fore side of the starboard wheel. She was then headed for Cape Race ; but after having gone some 15 miles, the water had so far gained as to extinguish tho fires, and the wheels conse quently ceased to work, at which time the boats saved left the ship. Captain Luce had no hopes of saving the vessel or kis own life, and on souse one wishing to take his little son into the boat, declined. A large boat, capable of containing 50 persons, was on deck, but there not being sufficient hands on board, and being veryheavy to launch, it is supposed she would be filled with persons, in the hope that she might float off when the ship sank. It is conjectured that three life-boats are yet floating, which will be likely to live out the gale of Sa turday. The purser , appears, Mr. Gelb, it chartered:a small craft at Renews to visit the scene of the disaster, and ascertain, if possible, whether there are any more beats out, so that we may shortly learn of the safety or otherwise of other parties. The Arctic had on board 403 persons, about 185 of wham were first-class passengers, 75 second-class, and 130 erdw. The general impression of those saved is that the steanaer soon went down. The following letter from the purser of the Arctic to - the American consul here was published in the Newfounlanaer, of Oct. 2 : " Ferryland, Sept. 29, 1854. "Dear Sir,—lnclosed I send you an important telegra phic communication for Messrs. E. K. Collins arid Co., New York, informing them of the loss of the steamer Arotic, which I will thank you to have forwarded to Hali fax for transmission by the earliest opportunity from St. John's. lam now on my way to your place with fourteen passengers and thirty-one of the crew of the ill-fated steamer, who were saved in two small boats belonging to the ship, after spending two days and two nights on the deep. "We arrived at four o'clock this morning at a place called Broad Cove, and are waiting for a fair wind to take us to St. John's. " JOIUN L. GEIB, Purser, steamer Aretin. " W. H. Newman, Esq., American Consul." (Copy.) " On Wednesday, the 27th inst., at twelve o'clock noon, the Arctic came into collision with a screw steamer, name unknown, in a dense fog, fifty miles S.E. of Cape Race. In an hour and a half from the time of collision the engines of the Arctic ceased working, on account of the fires being extinguished, and the passengers and crew took to the boats as far as able. The number of persons that arrived hero in safety in two boats, one of which I had charge of, was forty five—fourteen passengers and thirty-one crew. A number of persons were lost by the swamping of one of the boats, in which, it is painful for me to say, were the wife, son, and daughter of Mr. E. Collins. We landed at a place called Renews, in Newfoundland, and are now on our way to St. John's, distant about 50 miles, where I send this communication by express to the American consul to forward to Halifax. I have chartered a schooner, which stifled this morning, with a fair wind, under command of , Mr. Baahlam, the second officer, which will p robabl y arrive at the scene of disaster at twelve o'clock to-night (29th), in search of the other boats out. Annexed I send a list of passengers and crew saved in the two boats with me. " JOHN L. GEIB, Purser. • " Messrs. E. K. Collins and Co., New York." We are glad to be enabled to state that every exertion is being made to procure vessels to be despatched in search of the Arctic or her boats, by the American consul and passengers, who have succeeded in obtaining the brigan tine Ann Eliza, belonging to Messrs. Warren Brothers, which vessel sailed last evening, and will cruise three days in the vicinity of the catastrophe, free of charge. The Right Rev. Dr. Field promptly offered the use of his yacht, the Hawk, for the same service, which will be despatched as soon as a master and crew can be had for her. The Telegraph Company's steamer Victoria would, in all probability, be also sent off this morning ; and the mail steamer, immediately upon her arrival, will also be de spatched for the same purpose. The steamer Cleopatra, now in port, had not been forgotten, but we believe that she cannot possibly he had. No expense has been spared in the search, and the exertions of Mr. Newman, the Ame rican consul, are worthy of all praise. We sincerely trust their endeavours will be well rewarded. IENGERS.

Lauderdale Maule, Surveyor-General of the Ordnance, who lately died of cholera in the East), took place on Weduesday, at Forfar. The election day was the anniversary of the first Lord Duncan's victory at Camperdown. Viscount Duncan, who was the only candidate, was nominated by Lord J. F. Gordon Halyburton, who for merly represented the county, and seconded by Mr. Collier, farmer. Lord DUNCAN, having been duly elected, returned thanks, and said he would adhere to the political princi ples which had heretofore guided his Parliamentary con duct. He proceeded to say—With respect to my conduct in Parliament, I shall give my personal support to her Majesty's Government as at present constituted. (Ap plause.) When we consider the war in which we are engaged—a war in which the credit of the nation is at stake—a war which is being carried on in an unmis takeable manner, as within these few days news has been received of an important victory having been achieved, and I trust that it is not the last, I hope our rulers will not pause till the Russian Emperor is rendered unable again to disturb the peace of Europe. (Cheers.) We are a peaceful nation, and are fond of peaceful pursuits ; but when we are dared into the field, then it is with feelings of pride that we see that the blood of our soldiers is the same heroic blood that flowed in the veins of our forefathers, that the troops of a despotic Power have no chance with those of a free and enlightened king dom like ours. (Cheering.) The Russian Emperor's territories and population may be larger than ours ; but we.know this well, that one Englishman is equal to three or four Russians. (Renewed cheers.) I hold that credit is due to her Majesty's Administration for en deavouring, as long as possible, to preserve us from war, and afterwards for waging it with vigour ; and, under these circumstances, they shall have my general support ' • but I will not pledge myself to any man, or agree to be a blind supporter of any set of men whatever. I must reserve to myself the power when I see anything wrong to point it out; and I think it is the duty of a friend to tell them when he sees them going wrong. If I did not act an independent part, I would not adequately represent the independent and enlightened constituency before me. If I were to say that on all questions my opinions and those of the constituency I represent will be the same, I would be guilty of exaggeration ; but this I will say, that, when our opinions differ, I will reconsider my own judgment, and if possible correct it. Gentlemen, to one and all standing before me I give my hearty and cordial thanks for the position in which they have placed me. The sentiment of gratitude with which their conduct has filled me I am unable to express in words - but it is one which I shall continue to feel to the last day of my life. I shall take my leave on this occasion, with a prayer to Divine Providence that my future conduct may be such that you may never see cause to regret the choice you have this day made. If there is one thing which could have added greatly to the other favours bestowed on me, it is that of having selected this memorable day—the anniversary of my grandfather's victory—to place me in this proud position. (Great cheering.) A vote of thanks was then awarded to the sheriff, after which cheers were given for the Queen, and for the ' army and navy. BRITISH PENITENT FEMALE REFUGE. Yesterday afternoon the annual general meeting of the subscribers to this institution was held in the board room of the asylum, Cambridge-heath ; the Rev. Josiah Viney pre sided. The secretary read the report, frown which it ap peared that since the establishment of the Refuge in 1829, 1,217 females have enjoyed the advantages af forded by it. Of these it. is calculated that two-thirds have been personally benefited. The number of females admitted during the past year, from all parts of the coun try, is 41, which, together with 54 on the foundation at the last anniversary, make 95 who have participated in its benefits during the year. All were poor and destitute, the majority young creatures under 20 years of age, and most - of them had lost one or both parents. During the year 41 females have quitted the asylum, leaving 54 at present in the care of the charity. Of those who have been sent out, 21 have been reconciled and restored to their relatives, 17 have been placed in situations, 2 have left at their own request, and 1 has been dismissed. From the balance-sheet it appeared that the income has amounted to 1,5221. 16s. 2d., and the expenditure to 1,4491. 14s. 11d., leaving a balance on the year's ac count in favour of the society of 831. is. 3d. This, with the balance in hand at the last audit, has enabled the committee to purchase 3001. stock Three per Cent. Con sols, making the funded property of the charity 1,1001. Mr. Clements moved the adoption of the report, and congratulated those present upon the progress the Re fuge has made. Mr. Wilkins seconded the resolution, and remarked that the Institution had been of great im portance in checking vice, and of great use fulness in re ! claimin g th ose who hai llen, The report Wail Adopted, COURT OF COMMON COUNCIL. Yosterday a court was held for the despatch of public business. RIGHT OF MEMBERS TO INSPECT DOCUMENTS BELONGING TO THE CORPORATION. Ur. MURRELL said he had a question to ask of very con siderable importance to every member of the court. Their 55th standing order was—" Every member of this court now has, and always has had, the right to inspect the books and papers belonging to the corporation, save and except such as may be under the consideration of any of the committees." He (Mr. Murrell) being desirous of in specting one of the leases granted by the corporation with reference to a matter which he expected before the court that day, had made the necessary application to the officer having charge of the document, who informed him that he could not show it him as a member of the corporation in his individual capacity. He therefore wished to ask whe ther, under that standing order, he, as a member of that corporation, was not entitled to inspect the document to which he had referred ? (Hear.) The RECORDER (after consultation with the Lord Mayor and Town Clerk) said—My attention has not been called to this matter before the last few minutes, and having had no time to consider it, I should be very unwilling to bind myself by any opinion. But the question raises a matter of very considerable difficulty. Oa the one hand, no doubt, under these rules, any member of the court has the right to inspect all the public documents of the corporation. On the other hand, it is quite clear that it cannot have been intended to give an opportunity to members of the corpo ration which other parties have not, to look at those docu ments for private purposes. (Hear, hoar.) As the docu ment to which reference has been made may be considered to refer to the title of a privato individual, I am not at this moment prepared to say it is clear under this order that every member of the corporaticn has a right to look at it. (Hear, hear.) It is a question upon which I should wish to be better advised before giving an answer. The LORD MAYOR said that, although the learned l e corder had made a guarded answer to the question that had been put to him, he (the Lord Mayor) considered that he should not be acting right if he did not give his unhesitating opinion as to what he considered to be the rights of a mem ber of the court. He conceived it to be the undoubted right of every member of the Common Council to see every document that he in his corporate capacity wished to look at, whether the lease of premises or any other paper con nected with the affairs of the corporation. (Hear.) - THE LORD MAYOR ELECT. The TOWN CLVIK read a letter addressed to the Lord Mayor by the Lord Mayor Elect, expressing his willingness to undertake the duties of the office to which he had been eleoted. The letter was ordered to be entered on the minutes of ;he court. CROWDED STATE OF LONDON-BRIDGE. Sir J. DUKE asked the chairman of the Bridge-house Committee (Mr. J. B.iley) whether, on account of the almost impassable state of London-bridge, and the daily in creasing traffic over it, any determination had been come to upon the subject of the project of constructing footpaths outside the parapets of the bridge, and converting the ex isting pavement into carriage way ? Mr. J. BAILEY said that the matter had been referred to Sir J. Rennie and Mr. Page, whose report would be laid before the committee on the following day, and forth with presented to the court. THE NEW CATTLE MARKET AT COPENHAGEN-FIELDS. ➢lr. H. L. TAYLOR, the chairman of the Markets Im provement Committee, brought up a report recommending the raising by bonds on the City's revenue 143,2211., the remaining sum required for the purposes of the new cattle market. The report was unanimously agreed to. Mr. LLOYD—When is it contemplated that the market will be completed ? Mr. H. L. TAYLOR—I have great satisfaction in answer ing that question. It cannot be too well known that we hope to get the market opened by Christmas next. (Hear.) Mr. LLOYD—And will the expense of it exceed the esti mate? Mr. H. L. TAYLOR—I believe that the works contem plated in the expense and in the report to which the court agreed will be either within or about the estimate, but if there should be works beyond those contem plated in the report, of course there will be additional cost. Deputy LOTT—Have the committee coma to any deter mivationas to altering the market-day from Monday to 'nesday ? Mr. EL L. TAYLOR —There will be a report upon the subject, and it is an important one. Perhaps I had better not say at the present moment how the committee have decided. Mr. MURRELL—When is that report likely to be brought up to the court? Mr. H. L. TAYLOR—I should think at the next court. STEAM-BOAT ACCOMMODATION AT THE SOUTH-EASTEEN SIDE OF LONDON-BRIDGE. Mr. BAILEY brought up the joint report of the Bridge house Estates and Thames Navigation Committees, to whom the question of placing a floating pier at the lower stairs on the south side of London-bridge had been re ferred, and moved that it be entered on the minutes of the court. Mr. MURRELL said, that, considering the important na ture of the report, together with the fact of the small num ber of members present, he felt it his duty to move that it be printed, and taken into consideration at the next court. When the subject of the increasing traffic over the la' was considered, he thought that the court ought no to lose any opportunity that presented itself of relievin g it. Mr. Ross seconded the amendment, being fully con vinced that every member should have a printed copy of the report before coming to any decision upon this all-im portant subject. Mr. DE JERSEY hoped that the court would not agree to postpone the consideration of the matter. The steam boat companies had taken advantage of the silence of the corporation with reference to the qualified consent that had been given, and had acted in direct violation of the printed laws, rules, and regulations of the corporation. He did not think that so flagrant a case bad ever before been brought under the cognisance of the court. The steam-boat companies had not only driven piles into the bed of the river, but had made a complete platform under . the arch, and ed placed a gangway extending from the lowest stair to the dummy. They had, therefore, done that which they had been refused permission to do when the matter was under the consideration of the Navigation Committee and the law officers of the corporation, and they had acted in direct opposition to the opinion of those who conceived that the fleeting pier would not be of any public convenience. (Cries of oh ! oh !) A more flagrant piece of impudence had never been perpetrated ; and he (Mr. De Jersey) therefore hoped, as the steam-boat com panies had taken the law into their own hands, that the court would uphold their own independence and not be come parties to acts done not only without their sanction, but in defiance of their positive orders. (Hear, hear.) The LORD MAYOR said it was his duty to inform the court, that, as conservator of the Thames, he had from time to time made inquiries on the subject to which the, discussion referred, and had that morning received a re port from the properly-appointed officers, stating that the floating pier caused no obstruction whatever in the Thames. (Hear, hear.) Mr. THORPE was of opinion that nothing could be more reasonable than that the report should be printed and cir culated before its contents were discussed, especially as the advice and even directions of the court were asked in connection with it. (Hear, hear.) Parties who supposed that the question could be got rid of in a hurry, and without due deliberation and consideration, would find themselves very greatly deceived, as a great many members of the court were most anxious that the whole subject should be fully discussed before any decision was come to. (Hear, hear.) On a show of hands being taken, The LORD MAYOR announced that the amendment was carried. Mr. J. Low then said that, as the further consideration of this question was postponed till the next court, he would not until then present a petition, with which he had been entrusted from the free watermen of the river Thames, against the proposed erection, in order that the two mat ters might be considered at the same time. Deputy CHRISTIE presented a petition from the Commit tee of the St. Botolph, Aldgate, Infant and Sunday Schools, for pecuniary aid. Referred to the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee, to examine and report. Deputy HOLT presented a petition from the Committee of the Farringdon General Dispensary and Lying-in Cha rity, for a grant of money. This petition was also referred to the Coal, Corn, and Finance Committee. The court then adjourned. DEATH 07 DAVID ROBERTSON, ESQ., OF GLASGOW.— The appearance in our obituary of the name of Mr. David Robertson, bookseller to the Queen, will fill many hearts with profound sorrow. Few of our fellow-citi zens were better known ; none were more respected and beloved: He was the friend of Andrew Henderson, Kennedy, Motherwell, Carrick, Alexander Rodger, and numerous other kindred spirits. His love of Scottish song was intense, while his exquisite sense of the ludi crous imparted a peculiar unction to his relish for wit and humour. In " Whistle Binkie" and " The Laird o' Logan" he gave full scope both to his taste for lyrical poesy and his lively appreciation of the facetious. Ttre publication of these works, particularly of the former, supplemented as it was by an admirable collection of " Nursery Songs," brought him into correspondence with nearly all the minor poets of Scotland, over some of whom he exercised an almost parental care. On Thursday night Mr. Robertson went to bed in his usual health ; shortly after midnight he was seized with the terrible distemper which still appears to be lingering in the midst of us ; and at half-past two o'clock on Friday our friend had ceased to exist. —Glasgow Herald. THE LATE LIEUT. BELLOT.—Two of the eldest sisters (who are of age) of the above gallant officer, who perished in the Arctic Seas, have just been married at Paris. The public subscription in this country for a testimonial to his memory amounted to upwards of 2,0001., and the committee, after setting apart 5001. for the erection of a granite obelisk, on the wharf of the Royal Hospital at Greenwich, divided the remainder of the money equally among the five sisters the gallant deceased had left to lament his loss ; to provide the two eldest with the means of support, whilst the subscrip tion was in progress, the committee paid certain sums to them ad interim. GALLANT CONDUCT. — During the gale on Thursday morning last, a labouring max, apparently somewhat intoxicated, got into the Mersey, near Otterspool, to bathe. The tide carried him out of his depth, and, beginning to sink, his cries attracted the attention of Mr. Algernon Sidney Grenfel, a youth of 18 (son of Vice-Admiral Grenfel, of St. Michael's Hamlet), who was•shooting seagulls near the spot. Without a mo ment's hesitation ho threw down his gun, and, not wait ing to rid himself of his heavy coat and shot-belt, swam out to the drowning man, seized him by the hair, and succeeded, with difficulty, ia bringing him to land, which he reached completely exhausted by his gallant exploit.
