Yesterday a meeting of this Institution was held at its house, John-street, Adelphi, Thomas Chapman, Esq., F.R.S., V.P., in the chair. There were also present—Sir Edward Perrott, Bart. ; George Lyall, Esq., M.P. ; Admiral W. H. Hall, C. 8., F.R.S.; W. H . Harton, E eq . ; J o h n Griffith, Esq. ; Admiral Bull oc k , Montague G ore, E sq. ; and Richard Lewis, Esq., the secretary. The minutes of the previous meeting having been read, a reward of £5 103 was voted to the crew of the institution's lifeboat at Drogheda, for putting off three men, from the schooner M aria, of Milfor d , w hi c h was wrecked on Drogheda B on the 9th u lt. There was a and saving the crew of strong gale of wind blowing at the time, with a heavy sea on the bar, but the lifeboat soon reached the vessel, and suc ceeded in taking off the crew, which was hardly accom plished before the schooner fell over on her beam-enis and became a total wreck. This valuable lifeboat has, during the last two years, been instrumental in saving sixteen per sons from different wrecks. A reward was also granted to the crew of a fishing boat for rescuing, at some risk of life, six persons from another boat, which was capsized in a heavy ground swell, near Castletown, Berehaven, county last. The boat was laden with seaweed, an d was proceed ing to the shore, when a heavy sea struck her an d s h e im mediately Cork, on the Bth of April went down, leaving the crew of fire men and a woman in the water, struggling for their lives. The salvors hastened to their assistance, and were, fortunately, the means of rescuing them from perishing. A reward was also voted to a boatma n named P. Connor, of Cahirciveen, county Kerry, for plunging g g into the sea and saving a lad who had fallen off the quay at that place on ashore, and would no doubt have perished b u t k r the intre pidity of Connor. He had previously the 7th ult. The lad was quite insensibl e w hen brought saved life in a simi lar manner. A reward of £2 103 was also granted to the crew of a fishing coble for putting off and rercuing the crew of four men of another boat, which was capsized some time since in a heavy sea off Cullercoats. The salvors had just returned from fishing, and, seeing the other boat capsize, they again launched their boat and proceeded to the rescue of their fellow fishermen, who were clinging to the mast, oars, &c., of the sunken boat. It was reported that benevolent persons had presented the institution with the cost of the new lifeboats to be stationed at New Brighton, near Livet pool ; Donna Nook, on the coast of Lincolnshire ; Tramore, near Waterford ; Poole, Dorset; and Sennen Cove, Land's End. The important new instructions of the Institution for the Restoration of the Apparently Dead from Drowning had been most extensively circulated by the society throughout the United Kingdom, They had also been forwarded to our colonial governors, and to the ambassadors at the English Court. The latter had expressed their high appreciation of the same. A communication was read from the French Minister of Marine acknowledging, with thanks, some drawings and various papers, forwarded by the institution, relative to ships' lifeboats. _ _ The late G, Wheelhouse, Esq of Deptford-bridge, had left the institution a legs:3y of £250. The South Holland Shipwreck Association had requested the society to order for them a new lifeboat, a transpox ting carriage, and equipment complete. Some fearful shipwrecks had occurred on that coast during the past winter, with the loss of 500 or 600 lives. The institution had lifeboats ready to be sent to Padstew, Cornwall; Redcar, Yorkshire; and Teignmouth, Devon shire. Payments amounting to £3OO having been made on vari ous lifeboat establishments, the proceedings terminated. THE JEWS IN MOROCCO, Sir Moses Montefiore has addressed the following letter to the illustrious Oozier Sid Taib El Yaminy, Minister of State, Morocco : Grosvenor-gate, Park-lane, London, June 1. May it please your Excellency,- - My heart is deeply im pressed with thankfulness to your excellency for the kind letter which your excellency has so courteously transmitted to me in reply to that which I had the honour to address to your excellency on the 23d of February last. Since my return to Europe I had the honour, while at Madrid, to place in the hands of her Catholic Majesty the Queen of Spain a copy of the Imperial edict of your august Sovereign,with a translation in the Spanish language ; and, while at Paris, to place in the hands of his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of the French a like copy, with a translation in the French language. Alro, on my arrival in London, I had the gratification to present to the Government of my beloved Sovereign alike copy, with an English translation. The Imperial edict of his Sheriffian Majesty has obtained a world wide celebrity, and has everywhere received the eulogies to which it is so eminently entitled. The friends of humanity and civilisation throughout the world entertain the earnest hope and belief that your gra • cious Sovereign and that you, illut•ttious Sir, will cause that edict to be known and respected by all the governors and officials in the Empire of Morocco. There is too much reason to fear that there exist a dispo sition on the part of some of these governors and officials to ignore or disregard the benign commands of the Sultan, and that they are acting in direct contravention of his bni J y e i wt his e i i s sd h s , t ok a n ee rn d it o ya t h at e hm r e n abi o ee n na - e : y l fi:s a s h s o o r a e h d u a m n a subjects c u s r b e a d l I Sheriffian Majesty's hi g h and exalted intentions t h a t hi s glorious edict. These are indeed s a d tidi ngs. 0, let not these oppressors tboethpeemr be allowed to persevere in their wrongdoing! I intreat the immediate and effectual i nterposition of his Sheriffian Ma jesty and of your Excellency. . The Imperial edict went forth as a beam of light to my co-religions- is in Morocco ; suffer not, I implore, its brightness to be dimmed, its efful gence to be extinguished. It imparts joy and promise; per mit not that joy to be destroyed, that promise to remain unfruitful. Hundreds of thousands of human beings in Morocco raise their Voices in praise and t hankfulness to God for the benign desire of his Sheriffian Majesty and of your Excellency to ameliorate their condition and to remove from them oppres sion and suffering. Let it not be that their fond hopes are a vain shadow, that their cheering anticipations of a brighter future are a delusive dream. ••••..... HOW great and how sacred are the prerogatives of majesty I It directs its people's welfare, and their paths are bedecked w i t h flowers ; it forbears to Punish the oppressors, and their path is beset with thorns. I know full well and have personally experienced the kindness of your august Sovereign and of your Excellency, and therefore I rely with firm faith on the generous promises which I have received that the Imperial edict should be promulgated throughout the Moorish Empire and its pro visions strictly enforced. Glorious, most Happy, most happy, are the nations dwelling in peace glorious are their rulers, to an wo d rd s e e , cu sP ri e t ki in whose wisdom and humanity,. inspired by Almighty God, the people look up for the perpetuity of those blessings 1 Condescend, illustrious fir, to consider these my humble t h e fulness of my heart, and with the most trut hf u l e arnestness. ll S overe i g n, and to rece ive with favour my best wishes for , and for the prosperity of his and y the Moorish Empire.

A DUTCH PAINTING, says a Saturday Reviewer, is a pleasant thing to look upon, a f ter all, let the author of .Modern Pointers say what he will. We admit that it is not high art, but it is intelligible art; and to be intelligible is something i n these days of Deesthetic exalta tion. We cannot all be expected to enter with enthusiasm 1 into the theory of coloured shadows, or to appreciate the gradations of sarial perspective ; but we are all, to a certain extent, qualified judges of a Mieris or a Gerard Dow. We recognise truth when it is brought before us. We know what hard work means, and we have some notion of the value of finish. The subjects, too, of those old Dutch masters are simple and homely. They ask nothing from us in tho way of classical or historical knowledge. They seldom go beyond a figure or two, or depict other than the commonest incidents of domestic life —such as a girl lean ing out of a window, or a couple of boors hobnobbing across a table, or an old woman cutting cabbages at her cottage door. But diet the girl's elbows are buried in a wondrous piece of Turkish carpet, so rich and real that one is almost tempted to take up the other end, and help her to shake it; or the Rhenish glows like liquid topaz through the cool green of the boll-shaped German glasses ; or that old battered brass pan into which the cabbage is about to be thrown catches a dazzling gleam of sunshine along the outer line which throws every adjacent picture into shadow, and almost makes our eyes ache as we look upon it. Be it high, or be it low, we repeat that this is a pleasant kind of art ; and the best proof that its pleasant ness has something real and satisfactory is to be found in the fact that the world has liked it for the last two hun dred and thirty years, and shows no sign of change. Yesterday was what may be called " speech day" at this now fast rising collegiate institution, when the usual classic and dramatic orations were delivered, and the 'prizes to the successful students at the Upper School publicly awarded. Dulwich College, though founded in 1629, dates its real career of usefulness as a leading :educational institution from a very recent period indeed, and, in fact, it is only since its reconstitution under the act of Parliament of 1858 that its resources have been developed in such a way as in the course of a few years more, under its present excellent masters, bids fair to place the College on a level in point of educational efficiency with our best schools. Under its old charter no provision was made for extending the sphere of either its charitable or educational value in proportion as its yearly income grew with the enormously increased ren tals derived from the land with which it is endowed. Cer tainly, neither the worthy actor who founded it, nor any one else in his time, or even for a long period after, could ever have foreseen the future wealth which he bequeathed in the acres of swampy woodland which he left to the infant College. Every year now adds to the value of the land the College holds and the rents which it derives from it. There is little doubt that in the course of another century Dulwich College will be very richly endowed, and with the care which is taken under the Act of 1858 to keep its educational system expanding in proportion to its wealth, there seems no reason why, with its large endowment, it should not attain high eminence as one of our great collegiate schools. At present the institu tion is divided into an Upper and Lower School, the upper preparing young men for the universities or any of the learned professions ; in fact, combining the old classical routine of public schools with an extensive study of the modern languages, history, and physical sciences. The Lower School offers a sound commercial education. There are as many foundationers in the Lower School as the new governers under the act may appoint, but in the upper there are only 24. The boys of the Lower School are restricted to inhabitants of the hamlet of Dulwich, as it is called, and the four parishes of St. Giles's, Camberwell; St Saviour's, Southwark; St Luke's, and St Botolph's. The Upper School will soon be thrown:open to young gentlemen from all parts of the kingdom. Nearly half the income of the charity is now absorbed by the pensions granted under the act to the old officers and others of the school whom the act superseded, and the remainder is divided into four parts— three of which are devoted to purposes of education, and one part to charity, or in other words, to the pensioners whom the benevolence of the college supports. Under its old char ter the pensioners were six men and six women, each of whom received the munificent allowance of £l5O per annum. Under the new act the numbers of the pensioners will be increased, and the amount given diminished to £5O per an num, and as the pensioners to the old officers of the college fall in, they will of course be added to its annual income. By the terms of the new act the college is not allowed to have any out-pensioners on its funds till it has 24 in-pen sioners, and for such a number in the present state of the college accommodation there is absolutely no room. I n fact, as it is, the building is quite insufficient to meet the requirements of the Upper or Lower Schools, in the former of which there are 130 students, in the latter 80. Tho extension of the building has been urgently needed for some time, but now we believe plans have been definitely a a b d o o u p t t e h d a , l b f y a which n e t h a r e e r f o N u o n r d w a t o i o o d n s t h t o a n u e t h o f e p n r e e w s e n b t u c i l o d l g g e s will be laid next year. It is certainly impossible that the school can go on much longer within its present confined limits. Yesterday the prizes were given, and the speeches made at the end of the beautiful picture gallery. The Visitor to the College, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Rev. W. Rogers, Chairman of the Board of Governors; the Rev. Dr. Carver, Master of the College ; the Rev. W. F. Green field, M.A., Master of the Lower School, and a large num ber of ladies and gentlemen were present at the distribution. The prizes, which consisted entirely of books, were given by the Archbishop, who made a few kind congratulatory remarks to each recipient. In the classical department, prizes were given to Mr C. H. Lane, Mr Doble, Mr S. G. Thomas, Mr Ryrie, Mr G. H. Morgan, Mr C. Gull, Mr S. Cope, and Mr A. Ogilvie. In the mathematical classes, prizes were gained by Mr E. M Everett, Mr R. J. Milner, Mr F. W. R. Denny, Mr Holman, Mr J. G. Dearle, and Mr F. St. George Rich. In French, prizes were given to Mr Doble, Mr Roche, Mr Jackson, Mr Nightingale, Mr 11. A. Bone, and Mr S. Cope. Mr Ryrie took the prize for drawing, Mr F. W. R. Denny for free hand drawing; Mr Lyne for vocal music and choral singing. Mr C. H. Lane, Mr A. L. Lane, and Mr C. C. Rich, the prizes for Divinity. Mr C. E. Doble carried off the prize for composition, and Mr J. C. M'Donel! and Mr F. S. Phillips, the senior and junior prizes respectively for writing. These prizes were given during an interval between the recitations, which were of the usual character, including scenes from " Plautus," " Shakspere," " Xechylus," and other dra matists. Some of the best scenes from "Much Ado About Nothing" were given with an amount of comic humotir and force that were admirable, while from first to last the reci tations gave evidence of a care and finish in their delivery that reflected the highest credit on both students and teachers. Dr, Livingstone. The following communication from Sir Roderick Murchison will be read with interest and gratifies tifieation, as imparting information concerning the movements of Dr Livingstone, and serving to allay the painful anxiety excited by the reported murder of the energetic explorer of African territory : I have received letters from my distinguished friend Dr Livingstone, by the last of which, dated Mozambique, Feb. 24, I learn that ho was in good health, and was about to proceed to Bombay, there to endeavour to sell the Lady Nyassa steam vessel, which he had constructed at his own cost. When he received at Shupanga the notice of the abo- lition of his consulate he was unable for want of water to transport the Pioneer steamer down the Zambesi. Knowing that he must wait till the rains filled the stream, he, with his well-known zeal, resolved to devote all the time which must intervene to execute a journey into the interior along the western banks of the Shiril, and, if possible, to deter mine if the Lake Nyassa, which he had formerly examined, was eupplied by waters from the north, and which were supposed to issue from the Lake Tanganyika of Burton and Speke. Unfortunately, the boat which he had pre pared to ascend the Mhire" was lost in one of the cataracts. Nothing daunted, he pushed on upon foot, attended by his faithful Macololo and the steward of the Pioneer, and keeping to the north-west explored a range of mountains running north and south, about 6,000 ft. above the sea, with rich valleys beneath them, at an altitude of 2,000 ft. Arriving at Kotakota Bay of the great lake, in lat. 12 deg. 55 min. S., where that vast sheet of water is reduced to a narrow channel, he there found the transfer of slaves across to the east coast to be in full vigour, and he deeply regretted that he had not been permitted to continue his services by bringing his little steamer, the Lady Nyassa up to this point, as he could with her moat effectively check this slave transit. The Pioneer, constructed by the Go vernment, was found to draw too much water for interior navigation. The account of his journey from there to the west and north, which is full of interesting new data, will be given to the Royal Geographical Society on June 13. With the sincerest desire to prosecute his researches to the north by west, his sense of duty impelled Dr Livingstone to return to the Z ambesi, before he could determine by per sonal survey the direction in which the waters flow at the north end of the Lake Nyassa, but he collected much valu able native information, which will produce interesting dis• cussions among geographers. Suffering temporarily from severe illness, and being under strict orders to abandon the Zambesi expedition, he felt compelled to return to complete his official duties by taking the Pioneer down that river, and with his companions he therefore travelled back nearly 700 English miles in 55 days, and reaching Shupanga he thence descended the stream. True to his word, ho under took to send to the Cape the native boys and children, who had been freed and partially instructed. Let us hope that he may not saffer much pecuniary loss by the sale of his own Lady Nyassa, expressly constructed at his cost, to stop the slave trade across the Shire, and that our Government will not be oblivious of the hearty and devoted services of this meritorious missionary and explorer. P.S. In a letter from Shupanga, on the Zambesi, dated Feb. 10, Livingstone adds, toe detail of his recent explora tions in the interior, the following paragraph :—" I hope a report of my being murdered had not reached my family, as they may believe it the more readily on account of the lies already propagated. I have never known any difficulty with an interior tribe, or any other not engaged in slaving." GOVERNMENT SUCESSES IN THE FRENCII ELEC.. TlONs.—The Government appear to have won u double electioneering victory in the South. M. Bravay, whose name is known in England chiefly in connection with the steam rams, has been returned by a large majority in the first circumspection of the Gard. Ile had been elected twice already, and the Corps Legislative had quashed his election-14,765 votes were recorded in his favour; his opponent, M. Chabanon, only polling 6,381. In the fourth circumscription of the same department the Opposition candidate was also defeated by the gentleman supported by the Administration--the numbers at the close of the voting were as follows :—M. Andre, 14,490 ; M. Parquet, 5,311. Some curiosity is felt as to whether the Legislature will again unseat M. Bravay, who is objected to apparently for the sole cause that slanderous rumours have been circulated against him which do not appear to have a s hadow of a foundation, but which the peculiar procedure of . French courts in the matter of libel did not enable him to disprove, The committee which has been formed for the relief of the distressed Circassians feel it incumbent upon them to lose as little time as possible in appealing to the public for support to enable them to carry out the benevolent object they have in view. The accounts which have already reached this country convey some idea of the nature and extent of the misery it is sought to relieve. The committee, in the interests of the Circassians them selves, are anxious to have it clearly understood at the out set that the present appeal is based exclusively upon motives of humanity. At the same time, while they disclaim any object of a political character, they cannot possibly deny that their desire to assist in relieving the Circassians is greatly increased by the consideration of those circumstances which have led to the present catastrophe. The final result of 40 years of determined resistance to the armies of Russia is the deportation of the three principal tribes of the western Caucasus. The resouroes of their country having become exhausted, and the energies of its population worn out by the protracted struggle, they have at last submitted to an overwhelming necessity, and are now undergoing the painful process of expulsion from the coun try to which they have shown themselves so peculiarly at tached. We may, Weed, measure the degree of pressure under which they are migrating to Turkey by the vigour with which they have resisted the encroachments of their enemies through this long course of years. As there- is no.oircul4iiiF medium in Cireassia these mountaineers arrive at the coast ateirrdestitart3: - Ships provided by the Turkish Government convey them to Tre bizonde and other ports oa the northern shores of Asia Minor. The mortality during this short voyage has been in many instances fearful, and typhus fever and small pox have already swept off thousands of men, women, and children. The Turkish Government has taken most ener getic steps to mitigate this misery, and we are credibly assured that a sum of £50,000 has been devoted by the Sultan himself to conveying the Circassians to Constanti nople, housing them when there in refuges and hospitals, and sending them in small colonies as settlers into the in terior. The necessities of a whole nation, however, tax the charitable resources of Turkey beyond what they can bear. It is, therefore, earnestly hoped that the public, in the true spirit of our nal ional generosity, will contribute towards helping the Circassians to reach the land provided for them by the Turkish Government, and towards keeping them alive until they can work for themselves. As these poor people have been reduced to their present condition by no fault of their own, but, on the contrary, are suffering in consequence of the very zeal and ardour of their patriotism, as they have no choice left them as to their fate, but are compelled to face pestilence and starvation, and as their only desire is to find that peace elsewhere which has hitherto been denied them in their own country, and to earn their bread by honest industry, they have the highest claims upon our charity. It is calculated that in the course of the next two months a population of 300,000 souls, a large proportion of whom are women and children, will be cast, starving and half naked, upon the shores of Asia Minor. The Committee trust that the circumstance that this nation is obscure and little known in this country will not deprive it of the sympathy of the public. Nor should the fact that the misery is on such a gigantic scale dishearten us in our attempts to relieve it. Whatever money is collected and subscribed in E ngland will be applied to the relief of the most urgent cases of suffering. The late Sultan himself set us an example which we Might now gracefully follow when he subscribed £l,OOO out of his own purse to a fund which had been raised in this country to relieve a distress in Ireland almost as vast in its dimensions. THE RIGHT HON. ROBERT Lowe, M.P., has been elected a trustee of the British Museum, in the room of the late Sir George Cornewall Lewis. MELANCHOLY DEATH.—It is our painful duty to announce the death, in the prime of life and health, of Mr. Henry P. Pigot, of Capard-house, who was found drowned in his own lake on the 28th ult., at 6 o'clock. It appears that the unfortunate gentleman left his house on the evening previous, at 8 o'clock, to take his accustomed walk through the grounds; and, in anticipation of a sheep shearing which was to take place on the following day, he gave orders, as he was leaving, that he should be called in the morning half-an-hour before the bell rung for the work men to assemble. Expecting bis return to the house, one of the household remained up to open the door and receive any commands he might have to give. Not returning for some hours, there was a certain amount of uneasiness felt at his stopping out so long; still his absence was attributed to his having gone to the house of some neighbouring gentle. man, and it was only at 6 o'clock next morning, when the labourers were coming to Capard for the day, that a search was instituted for him. On passing the edge of the lake, which lies at some short distance from the house, two of the workmen saw in the water the body of their lamented master, and, having carried it to the shore, they discovered that life had been extinct for several hours. It appears that the walk by the lake at this particular point is very narrow, and has been made more difficult to pass by the boughs of the laurel trees which thickly overhang it; and it was evident from the marks on the ground at the edge of the lake that the unfortunate gentleman's foot slipped, and that he was unexpectedly immersed in the water. Although the lake is not more than three or four feet deep at this place, the bottom, which is composed of a thick, slimy mud, carried down from the mountain, would render it, in all probability, impossible for him to extricate himself, and he thus lamentably perished. An inquest was held during the day on the remains, and a verdict in accord ance with the circumstances, of " Accidentally drowned," was brought in by the jury. There is one universal and widespread feeling of regret at his death. He was heir to, and, but for his sad and untimely fate, would have in herited, on his father's death, who still survives him, the vast estates of the family, which bring in a rental of nearly £lO,OOO a year, and which must now pass to another branch.—Freeman. MECHANICS' FINE LADIES.—Very different in texture altogether is the physical humanity of the small-handed woman opposite, dressed in a shabby gown, with a soiled flaunting bonnet, and a torn shawl of many colours, who evidently thinks that nerves and idleness are three parts of the essence of gentlehood, and that she can make herself "a lady" by ceasing to be a woman and be coming a doll. Her husband is a rough-mannered, rough handed mechanic, making perhaps forty shillings a week or so, more or less; and he, too, shares in the delusion that work is " low" for a woman, and that idleness is a refine ment, and a thing to be cultivated by the ambitious. It is his pride to boast that "his wife is kept like a lady, with a servant of her own—and needn't do a hand's turn if she don't like." So he puts her in a " nice little home" at Camberwell, with a best parlour and a black horse hair sofa, quite comfortable ; and there she lords it in state over a miserable little elf, a parish apprentice, small enough to be carried like a lapdog in the pocket. But the elf does all the dirty work, and the rough and the hard work toe, that my lady the mechanic's wife, may not soil her hands, or make them "hard like a common woman's." She is one of a kind I see a great deal of, and that I can never sufficiently deplore ; for they seem to me to be cutting at the root of all that is most wholesome in the English ar tisan class, its simple strong hold on realities ; and that while the men of that class are so wonderfully improving, the women are just as much deteriorating by their terrible spring of fine-ladyism and finery. Look at the envious glances which our lady of Camberwell is casting at those two pretty young creatures in bright blue !glee, so carefully •tucked up over their knees, evidently off to a friendly party somewhere. You: can see that they are ladies, even it papa's income makes it necessary for them to peril their best dresses in an omnibus, rather than spend a few shillings In a cab. That they are happy and innocent, and inncently happy in their present finery, is also evident ; and yet both these girls would do real good hard work if need be ; and, indeed, do so ; helping their one servant, Jane, as much from kindness that she should not be over worked, as from mamma's desire, and their own, to " make things look nice."—Dickens' "All the Year Round." DROWNED WHILE BATHING IN LOCH LOMON::::i7 Mr. James Begg, jun., stationer, Glasgo:, h three others, having come down by the early boat t oached the Satur day, proceeded to the water to bathe. They approached Inn, loch a short distance to the south of , R o o a t ; but the gentle where the bank seems to slope gradual!) yards o from the edge inclination terminates abruptly the first to plunge of about seven fathoms. Mr 13 y e b ad scarcely entered the of the loch, and beyond the watear,fse,uldsenly attains a depth to strike wildly about hint in, which he did with a race. o t eg th a e n bank thought at first he was to be in eat nest, one of arm, and struck out for water a minute when h e as if in distress. Unfortunately Mr Begg was struggling with m th a e k m ing rushed the shore. ljn so that his friend had to relinquish his hold and sport; i o , butl caught' perceivingh- hold o fh hisim • swim violence, imto shoal water, His companion then joined hands with ' him to support each other, and, wading to the edge of the descent, strove to reach Mr Begg as he rose to the sur face, but in vain. He never appeared again, but sank ' slowly in from S to 10 feet of water. His brother was a witness of the distressing e7ent, and his agony may be more easily conceived than described. The body was not recovered till Sunday afternoon, when it was conveyed to o:asgow. With the view of preventing the overcrowding of the barrack rooms at Chatham garrison during the summer months, Major-Gen. Eyre has issued orders for the number of men in each of the barrack rooms to be reduced accord ing to the size of the rooms, by which arrangement 12 men_ will in future occupy the space formerly apportioned to 18 men in the large rooms, and 9 men the space formerly de voted to 12 men in the smaller rooms. Major-Gen. Lefroy, R A., Capt. L. Heath, C. 8., R.N,, the President and Vice-President of the Ordnance Select. Committee, with various members of the committee, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from London. They went on board her Majesty's ships Excellent and Royal Sove reign, over which they were conducted by Capt. Astley Key, C. 8., the officer commanding her Majesty's ship Excellent, The various methods of mounting and sighting guns of different calibres on board broadside and turret-glut ships were explained by Capt. Key, on board the Royal Sovereign, assisted by Capt. Cowper P. Coles, R.N. The Committee, on leaving the Royal Sovereign,embarked in the galley of Capt. H. Caldwell, C.B. (the officer in command of the steam reserve at Portsmouth), and visited some of the ships afloat. .It is presumed that the visit of the Cora mitt.e to Portsmouth relates to the future armament of the navy, whatever clasafef vessels it may consist of, turrets or broadsides, or both combined—biii, if so, they'nzmorlave. been greatly enlightened at the conclusion of their day's labour, inasmuch as but one of the members was a naval officer, and to purely military men the Royal Sovereign, ix her present incomplete state, must be at first sight an em barrassing mystery. Some time since half-a-dozen Enfield rifles, fitted at the breech with the Mont Storm breech-loading apparatus, were forwarded by Government order to her Majesty's ship Ex cellent at Portsmouth, in order to have the principle thoroughly tested and its suitability for service in the navy reported upon by Capt. Astley Cooper Key, C. 8., of the Royal Naval College and her Majesty's ship Excellent. We understand that the trials of these weapons on board the Excellent have proved most satisfactory, and that they fur nish sound reasons for believing that by the adaptation of the Moat Storm breech to our present Enflelds our soldiers and seamen may have a breech-loading rifle as simple, safe, and efficient as can be wished for general service. The Aurora, screw frigate, Capt. Sir Leopold M'Clintoek, arrived at Spithead yesterday from the Nor:, and on anchor ing exchanged the customary salutes with the flagship of the Commander in Chief, Admiral Sir Michael Seymour, G.C.B. The Aurora will embark part of the 60th Rifles for conveyance to Kingstown. The Gladiator, 6, paddle, Capt. F. H. Shortt, arrived at Portsmouth yesterday from Devonport, and took up a berth alongside the dockyard. She will embark a portion of the 60th Rifles for Kingstown on the same day as the Aurora. The Adder, paddle steamvessel, tender to the Wellesley, at Chatham, was taken into dock at Sheerness yesterday to undergo thorough repairs, which, it is expected, will oc cupy several weeks in completion. The Dauntless, 31, screw steamship, 1,575 tons, 580-horse power, late Coastguard vessel in Southampton Water, and now being refitted in the basin, Sheerness Dockyard, as Coastguard vessel in the Humber, Capt. James N. Strange, will shortly be out of the hands of the dockyard artisans, when she will be taken on trial to the measured mile, and if the trial prove successful she will then proceed to her destination. The Terrible, 21, paddlewheel steam frigate, 1, 850 tons, 800-horse power, in No. 2 dock, Sheerness, has a large number of workmen at present employed upon her, and it is expected that their labours will soon be completed, She will then leave the dock and be taken to her moorings in the harbour. A private letter received at Portsmouth from her Ma jesty's ship Euryalus, dated at Yokohama, Japan, April 1, says : " We have now, unfortunately, 42 cases of smallpox on board, but not of a very serious nature, generally speaking. There are very few now in the ship tilt-.t left England in her; only six of the latter class remain in the wardroom. Parker, our master, was the last officer invalided. Every thing is going on quietly here, but there is very little trade doing between the Japanese and Europeans." The following appointments have been made at the Ad miralty :—Commander the Hon. Maurice H. Nelson to the Rinaldo, vice Dunlop, invalided ; Lieut. Henry Golden to the Wellesley; Lieut. George V. Philipps to the Princess Charlotte ; John A. H. Petch, master, to the Leander ; George J. Tomlin, acting master, to the Shearwater ; Charles D. Shephard, surgeon, the Immortalite ; William Nicholson, surgeon, to the Aboukir; Dr. George E. Wright, acting assist-surgeon, to the Black Prince ; and Charles Beal, chief engineer, additional, to the Asia for the Arrogant. Tremendous Conflagration at Lambeth. Last evening the inhabitants of Lambeth, near the Arch bishop of Canterbury's palace and Hodges' distillery, were thrown into a state of excitement, owing to the outbreak of a fire of no small magnitude in the extensive range of pre mises belonging to Messrs. Ogleby and Co., the well-known w a x bleachers and patent candle manufacturers, situate in Paradise-street, Lambeth. The property in question, as most of the public are a ware, covers an immense space of ground , an d comprises sundry erections, some of brick and timber, others of cor. rugated iron and glass, whilst the open yard serves the purposes of a wharf or general dep ot. Each building con ally i t o il n a e m d m m a a b n l e y a t r o t n i c a l e o s f , fat c , h o as i s , s a p r e e rma c c and t o o t s h p e r r e e a q a u dis may, which was the case last evening, upon the sudden outbreak of a fire in such an extensive range of buildings as stood upon the ground. To add to the excitement which prevailed upon the alarm being raised, it is necessary to vo s t fe a n t t that e e hde bet factory,wbetween Mess. e r at s nh de H a c, g d rgeeast' distilleryn dilly u s ara t n i d e e r rthoef i s bs within ho a u f s e e w s property, iynatr d Be i; Norfolk-place and Norfolk-row. These houses were tenanted by poor people, and it was distressing to see how they hurled their furniture into the street to avoid the ravages of the flames, From inquiries made, the factor manager of the wor k s remises at 5 o'clock, when , left the p y it appears that Mr. Myers, the appeared perfectly safe from fire, but in less than an hour afterwards soma one cried out that the pressing rooms of the factory were in flames, Sueb, unfortunately, turned out to be correct, and in less than 5 minutes subse quently immense bodies of flame rolled from that part of the factory, and huge sheets of smoke nearly obscured from the public eye the Archbishop's palace. It then became apparent that a fire which could not easily be extinguished had begun. The various workmen, upon finding they were unable to get such a body of fire extinguished, sent for the aid of the fire-engines, and, in a space of time incredibly brief, the parish engine attended, closely followed by Capt. Hodges ines also came up and Lieut. Becker, with three engines from the first-named gentleman's distillery, including the Torrent land steamer from the same firm. - Various brigade ong Shand and Masnir g in rapid succession, including two of , district, ,4 I r i hurried and to land steamers, one of their powerful river floats, Roberta 's the e r s F p o o r t e , m a an nd Princess of Wales land steamer, and a large number of manual working engines, from nearly every . station in the derson, metropolis. The force was under thedirection of Mr Hen- J. Jerrard, who has charge of the steam engines. the chief engineer of the Mr Phipps, the secretary of the LambethWater Company, who was in the .neighbourhood at the time, upon seeing the ' flames rising so high into the air, b gave 1 'Demotions to the turneocks as to the best mains to be opened to supply such a large nuu,ber of engines as were present. Upon such an emergency Hodges' distillery, it should be stated, afforded sufficient water b u t the Thames took the first honour to feed 12 pipe s , of supplying the coat ing engine. The firemen, under the direction of their superior officers, upon seeing the danger that existed of the tames lapping over and seizing upon the distillery, laboured incessantly, as did also Mr Deeley, from Burnett's distillery. Eventually, about 9 o'clock, all danger of any further extension of mischief was over; but the damage done to catastrophe Messrs Ogleby and Co,'s premises is very serious, It is gratifying to state, however, that instead of the whole of heretofore. oc i their o cu 3, r in s h e i r a t , l ll large s7-a es i t s s bl i generally shnrtq s the — b c e i a n s g e w th h r e o n w thrown out of em ntdbepfr'aecestoinryg large as the fire was, may b r( e )o d ui e s sc d r e ib st e r d oy e e s d f , ol a l n oN d vs va : th ri e le bu d s a i u n , e a s g s e d o o f n t e l:e firm will be carried on as Tioll'ihseotth)oeirlinpgorlititioTsctio z i t . damaged by fire and water.

Several persons in Norfolk-place and Norfolk-row rill also be serious losers.
