'EW SLAVE- BADE CON- VENTION. The following are the annexes to the new slave-trade convention between England and France, which was laid on the table of the House of Commons on Monday even ing. The treaty has already appeared in The Sun— NNEX REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE VIII. OF THE CONVEN TION BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND FRANCE FOR THE SUPPRESSION OF THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE, SIGNED 4T LONDON, MAY 29, 1845. Instructions for the senior officer of her Majesty's ships and vessels on the west coast of Africa, with re spect to the convention with France, signed at London, May 29, 1845. By the Commissioners for executing the office of Lord High Admiral of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, &c. We transmit to you herewith a copy of a convention between her Majesty and the King of the French, dated May 29, 1845, by which it is stipulated that the con tracting parties shall each maintain on the west coast of Africa a naval force of not less than twenty-six vessels, to be omployed for the prevention of the slave-trade, by closely watching all the parts of the west coast where the slave-trade is carried on from Cape Verd to 16 deg. 30 min. south latitude, and by exercising all the powers vested in the Crowns of France and Great Britain for such purpose ; and we desire that you will take every opportunity, and use your utmost efforts to effect the objects of this convention. You are to take the earliest opportunity of putting yourself in communication with the senior officer of the ,e'rench squadron, for the purpose of co-operating with him in the execution of this convention, and of concert ing with hie' as to the best means of closely watching the parts of the African coast before described, by select ing and de'ning the stations to be established, and by taking the charge thereof, either conjointly with the French cruisers, or separately with the force under your cceseinand, or by leaving the same to the French naval force, as may be deemed most expedient. You will understand, however, that in the case of a sta tion being especially committed to the charge of cruisers of either nation, the cruisers of the other nation may at any tine enter the same for the purpose of exercising the rights respectively belonging to them for the sup pression.ef the slave trade. You will, in concert with the commander of the French squadron, determine with what native princes and chiefs it may be neeessary to negotiate treaties for the suppres sion of the slave trade. And you are authorised to ne gotiate such treaties, either personally, or by an officer epecially instructed for such purpose ; such treaties to be framed in accordance with the draught of engage ment forming appendix to Section VII. of the instruc tion:. issued on the 12th of June, 1844, to her Majesty's naval officers employed in the suppression of the slave trade. Whenever it may be necessary to employ force to ooipel the due execution of any treaty contracted with any naive chief, in virtue of this convention, and to which both her Majesty and the King of the French are parties, you will concert with the commander of the French squadron as to the employment of force for such purpose, and arrange, in concert with him, to act con jointly with the French force, or separately, as may be deemed most advisable ; but, with respect to these conjoint treaties, you will not employ force without the consent of the commander of the French squadron. It will be the duty of yourself and of the commanding officers of her Majesty's ships under your orders, upon all occasions, to communicate to the officers of the French squadron any information which may be of service in detecting the frauds of the slave traders, and especially to give notice of any vessel supposed to belong to France, and suspected of being engaged in the slave trade, which may be met with or heard of in the course of a cruise; and you will give directions to the officers un der your orders to pay strict attention to this duty. With respect to the visit, search, and detention of vessels belonging to nations between whom and Great Britain there are existing treaties relating thereto, and for the suppression of the slave trade, and also with respect to vessels not entitled to claim the flag of any nation, you will be guided by the instructions founded upon the Statute passed in the se cond and third year of her Majesty Queen Victoria, chapter 73, and upon the treaties in force with foreign States, and the Acts of Parliament made in furtherance thereof, which have been delivered to you for your go vernment ; the present instructions in no respect inter fering therewith. YO - u are not to capture, visit, or in any way interfere with vessels of France ; and you will give strict instruc tions to the commanding officers of cruisers under your er,?ers .to abstain therefrom. At the same time, you will remember that the King of the French is far from claiming tilde the flag of France should give immunity to those who have no right to bear it ; and that Great Britain will not allow vessels of other nations to escape visit and examination by merely hoisting a French flag, or the flag of any other nation with which Great Britain has not, by existing treaty, the right of search. Accord ingly, when from intelligence which the officer com manding her Majesty's cruiser may have received, or from the manoeuvres of the vessel, or other sufficient cause, he may have reason to believe that the vessel does not belong to the nation indicated by her colours, he is, if tip state of the weather will admit of it, to go ahead of the suspected vessel, after communicating his inten tion by halting, and to drop a boat on board of her to ascertain her nationality, without causing her deten tion, in the event of her really proving to be a vessel of the nation the colours of which she had displayed, and therefore one which he is not authorised to search; but Fhould the strength of the wind, or other circumstance, render such mode of visiting the stranger impracticable, he is to require the suspected vessel to be brought to, in order that her nationality may be ascertained; and he will be justified in enforcing it, if necessary—under standing always, that he is not to resort to any coercive measure ,utltii every other shall hav e f a il e d ; an d t h e officer who boards the stranger is to be instructed merely in the first instance to satisfy himself by the vessel's papers, or other proof, of her nationality; and if she prove really to be a vessel of the nation desig nated by her colours, and one which he is not authorised to search, he is to lose no time in quitting her, offering to note on the papers of the vessel the cause of his hav ing suspected her nationality, as well as the number of minutes the vessel was detained (if detained at all) for the object in questio n ; suc h no t a ti on t o b e signed by the boarding officer, specifying his rank and the name of her Majesty's cruiser; and whether the coml . -sander of the visited vessel consents to such notation on the vessel's papers or not (and it is not to be done without his consent) ; all the said particulars are to be immedi ately inserted in the log-book of her Majesty's cruiser ; and a full and complete statement of the circumstances is to be sent, addressed to the Secretary of the Ad miralt-y-, by the first opportunity, direct to England; and also, a similar statement to you, as senior officer on the station, to be forwarded by you to our Secretary, ac companied by any remarks you may have reason to make thereon. The commanding officers of her Majesty's vessels must bear in mind that the duty of executing the instruction immediately preceding must be discharged with great care and circumspection. For, if any injury be occa- Aoned by examination without sufficient cause, or by the examination being improperly conducted, compensation must be made to the party aggrieved ; and the officer who may cause an examination to be made without suf. ficient cause, or who may conduct it improperly, will Incur the displeasure of her Majesty's Government. Of course, in oases when the suspicion of the com mander turns out to be well founded, and the vessel boarded proves, notwithstanding her colours, not tobe: long to the nation designated by those colours, the com mander of her Majesty's cruiser will deal with her as he would have been authorised and required to do had she not hoisted a false flag. Given under our hands, &e. ANNEX REFERtED TO IN ARTICLE VIII. OF THE CON VEN'IION BETWEEN GREAT BRITAIN AND FRANCE FOR THE SUPPRESSION OF THE AFRICAN SLAVE TRADE, STONED AT LoNDoN THE 29T11 DAY OF MAY, 1845. (Traarlation.) Monsieur le Commandant,—A convention concluded on the 29th of May, 1845, between his Majesty the King of the French and her Majesty the Queen of Great Britain, a copy of which is hereto annexed, regulates upon a new basis the vigilance and repression which the :wo countries have engaged to exercise in concert with regard to the slave trade. The two Governments being perfectly unanimous as to the object to be pursued, and firmly resolved to obtain by the promptest means the ex tinction of this criminal traffic, have recognised the ne eossity of adopting measures entirely distinct from those laid down in the treaties of 1831 and 1833. In the executidnof i s new treaty, the African sta tion w iFI have to take the most active and important port. It will, therefore, be your duty to make yourself fully maer of the spirit of this document, and of the meal in ing of each of its stipulations. You will never forget that your chief obligation, as commander of this station, is to secutte to this convention every result, which the two contracting Powers have a right to expect from it. The basis of those arrangements—the principle of the work to be carried out in common on the part of France and England —consists in a complete and continued ac cord between that of the French squadron and that of Great BOttsin. Immediately on your arrival upon the coast of Africa yea will place yourself in communication with the otlicer commanding the Engli s h f orces , i n or d er t o esta hnsh from the very beginning that concert which ought to govern the wh o l e an d every part of your operation. rYoutrewill examine i n common, w i th a view to the ar ahment of th e serv i ce, those points of the coast which are already known to be the seats of the traffic, and which are to be closely watched by the two squadrons ; you wia make arrangements for being subsequently in , fotaceed of, and for watching, b necessary, those places also to which tlTe hin. tr g ali a c sm 4 y ht be removed ; and you will then make a distributio n of the c ru i sers p l ace d thilt.r your command those on all parts of the c oas t t o which the sy s t em of co-operation ara, should b e app li e d , either simult aneous l y or sep You will devote particular attention to the means to fin eunploicd in order to obtain the relinquishmentis of of the rf h the slave-trade on the part s o f the kings t;ihes which inhabit the coast. Some of c them f already been induced to aband on i t; others appear d a i v s e rased to take the same course; the l arger number have - still to be persuaded to it by means of negotiations and I.romises of indemnification. To keep the former to the.observance of their engagements—to reduce as much as possible, by means of treaties freely negotiated, the ii,timbetilif those who still serve as auxiliaries or asso ciattes of the slave tratle,—such are the results which, in ibis respect, it is proposed to attain by the t system of co-opera_f s ion. Unity of intention and ac ion for this purpose is an essential point to be arrange d between commanders of the two squadrons. I therefore recom mend you to consult with the commander of the British squadron, in order to determine the measures which each of you should undertake, with a view to secure the success of this important part of the convention. The concert which will be established between you ought also to prevail between the officers of the two . squadrons, of every rank and order. The commander of the English station will receive the same injunction in this respect ; and it will on either side apply not or ly to those cases of co-operation which are explicitly sti pulated by the treaty, but also to every circumstance which may admit of the interchange of mutual civilities, and the reciprocation of moral and physical co-operation between the ships, the officers, and the crews of the two squadrons. The duty of all persans on board the cruisers of the two nations, while upholding their mutual inde pendence, will therefore be constantly to aid each other in the execution of their respective orders, and to com municate to each other every information which may tend to further the measures adopted, in all that relates to the suppression of the slave trade. With regard to merchant vessels and cruisers bearing the flag of other nations whose Governments have suc cessively concluded with France conventions founded upon the principle of the right of search, and conform able to the treaties of 1831 and 1833, no change has taken place in the state of things regulated by those Acts ; and you will have to carry into execution, with regard to them, the general instructions already issued by my department. I need only here remind you that those countries are Sardinia, Tuscany, the Two Sicilies, Sweden, Denmark, and the Hans Towns. It now be comes my duty to call your attention to article 6 of the new convention. That article calls attention to a fact well known to all the officers who have been employed during the last 30 years in the suppression of the slave trade. All the vessels which engage in that traffic are fur nished with arms, such as swords, guns, pistols, and some even have on board small cannons or swivels. This pre caution is indispensable to them, if it were merely for maintaining in obedience with a small crew several hun dreds of negroes violently carried off from their families and native land. But it frequently happens that the commanders and crews of slave vessels make use of their arms for another and no less criminal purpose, by committing acts of de predation and robbery, either upon one another, or upon the inhabitants of the coast, or the Europeans who resort to it. This is proved by the instructions given to your predecessors, and especially by those given by the Go vernor of Senegal, on the 15th of July, 1841, to the officers employed on the African station. It is also a well-known fact, that almost all slave ves • sels have on board double sets of papers, papers appa rently issued by several Governments,—false muster rolls, which enable them to assume the appearance of belonging to one nation or to another, as they may find occasion. It is generally at St. Thomas and in the Island of Cuba that these false papers are fabricated, and they contain couuterfeits of the printed forms and autograph signa tures of the different authorities of each maritime nation, more or less skilfully executed. You are acquainted with the provisions of the law of the 12th of April, 1825, against piracy. You know that this law considers as pirates, not only the crew of armed vessels who commit acts of depredation, but also those who sail without ships' papers, or either with papers which are not sufficient to prove the regularity of their voyage, or with commissions issued by several different powers or states—the word commission being here un derstood not only of letters of marque in time of war, but of papers delivered to merchant vessels in time of peace.* In so doing, the law of 1825 has only restated and confirmed the principles already received, the doctrine which forma the foundation of our maritime legis lation, of the ordinance of 1554, the ordinance of 1681, recognized as an authority all over Europe,t that of 1718, and of the decree of the Second Prairie], year 11. ; and these principles have always been applied by our tribunals as well to French vessels as to foreign vessels, without having given rise to any complaint. You know, likewise, that in case of suspicion of piracy the law of nations, recognised by all civilized nations, authorizes any ship of war, to whatever Power she may belong, to detain the suspected vessel, whatever may be the flag that she bears ; under condition of delivering her over to the jurisdiction which has the right of de tiding upon the validity of the capture and the prosocu tion of the crime. Whenever, therefore, a vessel shall be pointed out to you as suspected of acts which our Legislation considers as piracy, according to the law of nations (in contradis tinction to those which our law merely assimilates to piracy, and which arc such only according to our national law), you are authorized to detain the vessel, in order to ascertain whether the suspicion is well-founded. As the exercise of this right may nevertheless give occasion to abuses, if not restrained within proper limits, by the good feeling and discretion of the officers who are invested with it, you will not forget that in such case the causes of suspicion ought to be real and grave ; that the verification of the national character of vessels and of the regularity of their papers, if necessary to be resorte to, should be limited to the measures strictly requisite for accomplishing that object ; and with a display of force and proceedings not justified by the circumstances, would be on your part a reprehensible act, and would give rise to well-founded complaint. The law of the 12th April, 1825, does not view as an act of piracy the mere fact of a vessel's hoisting a Bag which she is not entitled to bear ; it is nevertheless an act contrary to the law of nations—a fraudulent act, which, if tolerated, would render it impossible to exer cise any police on the sea, or any observation of mer chant vessels by ships of war, even such as it is the duty of a cruiser to exercise over vessels of her own nation. If, in order to enable a French vessel laden with slaves to escape your vigilance, it were only necessary that she should hoist the flag of another nation; if this fact alone were to render her inviolable, even when you were cer tain of her being French—that she was carrying on the slave-trade, and that the flag which she bore was usurped—every cruising 'station would become useless ; you Could neither repre"ss prohibited, nor protect lawfu commerce. Whenever, therefore, you may have reason to suspect any fraud of this nature, you are at liberty to verify the national character of the suspected vessel. If your suspicions should turn out to be well founded, it the suspected vessel prove to be either French, or one sub- ject to your observation in virtue of treaties actually i❑ force, and if such vessel be actually engaged in the slave trade, you will not hesitate to detain her. No nation can be entitled to claim for its flag the right of protect ing crime, and of withdrawing criminals of other na tions from the punishment which is their due. If, on the sontrary, your suspicions should be groundless, if the suspected vessel belongs bond fide to the nation whose flag she bears, you will not hesitate to release her im- rnjaiatel . y; giving, however, notice of the fact to those cruisers who have the right to detain her. In these operations you will never lose sight of the fact, that you are acting at your own risk and peril ; and that if, through any act of yours, the suspected vessel should sustain any damages, she will be intitled to indemnification. In dealing with her, therefore, you cannot act with too much circumspection. Signed by the Minister of Marine.

(Session of the Chamber of Deputies, April2s, 1825.) THE GREAT ROBBERY AT PARIS. (From Galignani's Messenger.) The man who stole the 80,000 f. from a commercial house on the Quai de la Tournelle has been arrested. The account which he sent of his having lost the money appearing exceedingly improbable, the police set to work to find out his residence, and discovered that he had gone on Tuesday with a woman named Reward, his mistress, to take a lodging at the Barriare Rochechouart. He was on that occasion dressed in female attire, and having taken the lodging, had paid the denier a Dieu, giving his name as the widow Rondos. Being traced from that place, the police ac quired a certitude, that he slept every night in a fur nished lodging at 68, Faubourg du Roule. On Thursday night the police entered his room and found him in bed, with, however, stays on, collar, bottines, and other arti cles belonging to a woman's dress. When taken to the Prefecture of Police he persisted in his story of having had his pocket picked of 80,000 f. In the course of Fri day the most minute searches were made at the several lodgings of this man, whose name is Gardeur, and of his mistress. All the furniture was examined, the walls sounded, and even the mattresses opened ,and the wool carefully carded, but all was in vain. At one moment the officers thought they had got hold of the object in search. In the apartment of Reward they disco vered a chest, which she had carefully endeavoured to conceal, but on opening it nothing was found in it but the clothes which Gardeur wore on the day of the robbery, and which he had changed for the complete dress of a woman. Reward retained, if not feelings of repentance and honesty, at least apprehen sions of her being involved as an accomplice, and at once acknowledged that Gardeur gave her in the street a note of I,ooof. ; that she agreed to go with him in search of a new lodging, and that furniture should be bought as soon as it was taken. In the chest with Gardeur's clothes was found the rough draft of the letter, announcing the pretended robbery of the 80,000 f. This seemed to stagger the woman for a moment ; but she still persisted in declaring, that if Gardeur had appropriated to himself the 80,000 f., she knew not what he had done with the money. Gardeur and Josephine were confined apart, the man still wearing his female garments. An officer of in telligence, placed over Josephine, remarked . that she took snuff out of a wooden box, on the outside and inside of which various figures of uncouth shapes were rudely scratched with the point of a knife or a large pin. On being questioned by her keeper as to the meaning of these rude hieroglyphics, she appeared to be very much disturbed at the question, but would give no satisfactory explanation. The officer having communicated this circumstance to the magistrates, Josephine was again brought before there, and at length made the following declaration. She stated that on Tuesday last, and not before, Gardeur made her acquainted with the robbery he had committed. She earnestly advised him to go to his master, throw himself at his feet, restore the money, wmernLtoiaanrgk she Gardeurhd and implore his forgiveness. This good advice he re jected. They afterwards went together to walk in the wood of Vincennes, and there, near the gate of St. Mande, in a place hid in the copse-wood, Gardeur made a hole at the footto in n f a t w t r o e e,an glassd buried bottles n o i n t 78 e o , o o n O t O n f. i n i and the other 40,0001., hich g 3 8,000 f., destined for her.

Early on Saturday and Josephine were confronted, and although at first he repeated his affirmation of his having been robbed, and declared that it was done before the picture -shop of M. Auberf, in the Place de la Bourse, he, on being info rme d of the deposition of Josephine, and finding that conceal- SAE SUN, LONDON, MONDAI EVENING, JUNE 16, IAM ment was no longer possible, acknowledged that her statement was true.

RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (SATURDAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP A. SOUTH EASTERN (DOVER) LINE. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Saturday.) This part of the evidence depended entirely on mechanical points connected with the atmospheric principle. The witness also showed several reasons why sufficient speed could not be obtained by the Croydon Company. He al,o stated that the danger of collision on the proposed line would be much greater than the danger on an ordinary railway, having a double tramway, as on the latter a collision could only occur from one engine overtaking another, in which case the force of the collision is only the predo minance of the speed of one engine over that of the other, while the force of the collision of two engines meeting, which might occur on a single line, would be equal to the united force of the wo engines. Mr. COCKSURN here observed, that he Was treating this line as an entire project, but that the Croydon Company had several Bills, one for each part of their line. Mr. Bidders then proceeded with evidence of a similar nature to that already given, and also to several points connected with the expense of the proposed London and Croydon line. Mr. AUSTIN then cross.examined the witness at some length as to a proposition and series of experiments made by him with respect to the atmospheric railway some time ago. The Committee were occupied with the evidence of Mr. Bidders up to half-past three o'clock, at which hour they adjourned to Monday at one o'clock. GROUP K. WYNDHAM AND DERESAM LINE. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Satur4y.) Mr. Wells and Mr. - Arthur Morse, the former an extensive farmer, and the latter 3 brewer, resident at Swaffham, gave similar evidence as to their preference for the direct line ; but all their testimony was but a bare repetition of that given by the several vreceding witnesses, and was wholly divested of significance or interest. Mr. Samuel Locke and Mr. Spintleld, residents of Norwich, proved the feeling of that city to be In favour of the direct line. Mr. Maine, examined by Mr. CALTERT.About 30,000 sheep and 29,000 pigs pass between East Norfolk and Norwich annu ally. Has taken, in estimating the cost of the direct line, 164 acres for 15 miles. Mr. Wilde, examined by Mr. Armanws—Has valued the da mage for severance and tenants' right on the principle of doubling the value of the land, estimating the price at 358. per acre, and calculating the cost for the occupation of fee simple property at something less than thirty shillings per acre for thirty years' purchase. The land traversed by the line was computed at 148 acres, besides 16 acres for termini, the whole 164 acres requiring a sum of 54,6001., or an average of 954 for com pensation. The Committee at three o'clock adjourned till Monday next. GROUP SS. EREWASH VALLEY RAILWAY. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Saturday.) The Committee, after agreeing that the bridges from the trunk line should be at such a height as not to obstruct the navigation of he canal, agreed to recommit the Bill, so as to adapt the preamble to the case as it now stands, on the grounds relative to the branches, which are disallowed. The Committee then adjourned till twelve o'clock on Monday. company for himself, and he hoped that as there were only two judges present, and his Learned Brother was the older acquaintance of the City, the next speech would Le long enough to justify the reasonable expec tations of his fellow-citizens, and to compensate for the deficiency cccasioned by the absence of the rest of the bench.—(Cheers and laughter.) He looked with the more confidence to the speech of his Learned Brother, when he considered that the Chief Baron had received the admirable education which, united to the extraor dinary genius and knowledge by which he was distin guished, had raised him to his present elevation, at one of the great schools founded within the city walls. The LORD CHIEF BARON of the Exchequer said that he was placed in a sort of difficulty. He con curred with his Noble and Learned Friend that as there were only two judges present, they were bound to say something more than might be expected if others of their Learned Brethren were present ; but he was quite disappointed at being called upon by his Noble and Learned Friend to make a long speech, after the subject had been so completely exhausted in that which had just been delivered. (Cheers.) He felt ; he assured the company, greatly obliged to them for the honour they had conferred upon him. The greatest reward which a man in his situation could receive was the cordial good opinion of his fellow-citizens, and if any man ought more than another to feel grateful for favours which led to distinction, he felt that he was indebted in the first degree to the City of London, for it was there in that city, at St. Paul's school, one of the munificent endowments in which England abounded, scattered as they were over the whole extent of the country, he had received the first impulse which at length placed him where he was. (Cheers.) In the public station to which he had been raised, he had in his noble and learned friend a great of example of learning, indepen dence, and the sound construction of the law.—(Loud cheering.) He had the example of ono who had fought the great battle of constitutional law.—(Cheers.) In the spirit of truth he spoke, when he said, that in his noble and learned brother he had the brightest of ex amples. He was sure he echoed the voice of the City of London. He believed that he echoed the voice of the great community of the empire. He knew that he ut t ...red his own sincere sentiments when he declared that his noble and learned friend was a lawyer of paramount ability—a man the most upright, and of the must honour able independence, and a thorough English gentleman. —(Loud cheering.) Lord DENMAN then proposed the health of the Sheriffs. lie had great respect for the gentlemen who filled the high office, which was one of very serious responsibility. There were occasions, they all knew, upon which the Sheriffs might be called upon to act with a spirit which would show the degree of independence of which they were possessed.—(Cheers.) The toast having been drunk with acclamation, Sheriff HUNTER said it was the anxious wish of the Sheriffs to discharge their duties in such a manner as would preserve the confidence of their fellow citizens, and enable them to hand down the office to their suc cessors without the slightest blemish.—(Cheers.) The Bishop of LLANDAFF proposed " the Magistracy of the. City of London, to whom the citizens were in debted for the preservation of the peace." Sir C. S. HUNTER returned thanks. Sheriff SIDNEY proposed the health of Mr. Master man, M.P., which was responded to by the Honourable Gentleman. Several otherltoasts were drunk, and the evening was spent with the greatest possible hilarity. The dinner was supplied by Messrs. Staples of the Albion Tavern, who fully sustained their high character in producing every requisite luxury. Mr. Hobbs, Mr. Chapman, and two boys of the names of Sullivan and Williams, delighted the company by their vocal abilities. Girdler's-hall, in which the entertainment was given, is so called from the ancient Company of Girdle-makers or Girdlers, whose patron saint was Saint Laurence. The Herald's office, in honour of the Martyr Patron, gave to the Company " two gridirons " as their arms. Chamberlain, in his "History of London," speaks thus of Girdlers'-hall. "A handsome and convenient build ing finished in 1681, well wainscoted within and adorned with a screen of the composite order for transcribing the affairs of the Company, which is a Livery Company and the twenty-third on the list. It was incorporated in the 27th of Henry VI., on the 6th of August, 1449, and in corporated with the Pinners, and were drawn by Queen Elizabeth on the 12th of October 1568, by the name of " the Master and Wardens or Keepers of the Art or Mystery of the Girdlers of Loudon." It is governed by a master, three wardens, and a court of assistants. TENANTS' COMPENSATION (IRE LAND) BILL. The Bill introduced by Lord Stanley, on Monday night, into the House of Lords, "to provide compensation for tenants making improvements, and to create charges in favour of landlords, in respect of improvements by tenants, or landlords, in Ireland," was yesterday issued, in a printed form, by their Lordships' order. The following is an out line of its principal provisions :—A commissioner is to be appointed, under sign manual, whose office is to be in Dublin. The secretary, &c., and other officers, are to be appointed, subject to the direction and approbation of the Treasury Commissioners. This commissioner is to appoint assistant-commissioners, with the assent of the Lord Lieute nant, to make rules and regulations for their guidance, and to transmit accounts annually to the Treasury, to be laid before Parliament. Tenants desirous of building, or rebuild ing, or draining, or to apply for forms of proposal and printed instructions, which forms are to be filled up when furnished, and two copies to be furnished, one of which is to be sent to the landlord. The tenant, having then received the Commissioner's answer, may make the proposed improve ments, if authorised, the landlord having power to inspect them during their progress, and to require a preliminary in quiry as to the suitableness of the improvements proposed. The assistant commissioner, the improvements being finished, is, if the landlord require it, to ascertain the cost of the im provements, and to report what sum the tenant is to be allowed ; or in case of improvements being completed by the landlord, what sum is to be allowed to him. In case of eviction the Assistant-Commissioner shall also state whether and when the tenant has been evicted ; and a similar inquiry is to take place as to the death and termination of the tenantry. Certain rules are laid down to limit the amount of allowance and disallowance in all these cases. The com missioner is then to prepare a certificate of allowance of compensation, and to register that certificate, and to send copies to the landlord—such certificate being conclusive as to the claim. If the tenant be evicted, or die, and his tenancy, then, or within thirty years of the proposal, de termine, the sum allowed the tenant for building or re-build ing is to be recoverable from his then landlord, deducting one twenty-ninth thereof for each year, computed from one year after the date of the proposal. The allowance for drainage to be recoverable on death or eviction, within fourteen years; and the remedy to be by action of debt—the tenant having no claim but in cases above provided for. This Bill consists of 29 clauses, and occupies 23 folio pages, closely printed. INSTITUTION OF CIVIL EN— GINEERS--JUNE 10. (Sir John Rennie, President, in the chair. ) The paper read was by Mr. James Stirling, and described an ingenious air engine, invented by his brother and him self. The movements of this machine are founded upon the well-known pneumatic principle, that air has its bulk or pressure increased or diminished in proportion as its tem perature is raised or lowered. The application of this prin ciple was exemplified by drawings, and a model exhibiting a machine composed of two strong tight air-vessels, con nected with the opposite ends of a vertical cylinder, in which a piston works in the usual manner. Within these air vessels are suspended two air-tight vessels, or plungers filled with non-conducting substances, and attached to the opposite extremities of a beam, capable of moving up and down alternately, to the extent of one-fifth of the depth of the air vessels. By this motion of the plunger, the air, which is in a heated state below, is moved to the upper part of the vessels, and in its transit traverses a series of vertical capillary passages between three metallic plates, which ab sorb the major part of the caloric. The remainder is taken up by a refrigerator of tubes filled with water The air at the heated end is about 700 degrees, and has a propor tionate pressure ; when it arrives at the cooled end it is reduced to about 150 degrees, and the pressure diminished to a cor responding extent. Therefore, as the internal vessels move in opposite directions, it necessarily follows that th pressure of the condensed air in one vessel is increased, while that of the other is diminished. A difference of pres sure is thus produced upon the opposite ends of the piston, and a reciprocating motion results, which communicates through a beam, connecting rod, crank, and fly wheel to the ma chinery when driven. Machines on this principle were stated to have been worked for some years past at Dundee with considerable saving of fuel as compared to a steam-engine of similar power and doing the same work. It i= now proposed to adapt it to marine purposes, to which, from its simplicity and slight expenditure of fuel, it appeared well fitted. The theory of the expansion of air, and its practical adaptation as a moving power, were very fully dis cussed, as were the mechanical difficulties, which appeared to have been very ingeniously overcome by Mr. Stirling, who attended the meeting, and explained his invention. The engine appeared to receive the approval of the members, who were evidently not prepared to find so perfect a machine, and one so practically useful. The following papers were announced to be read at the next meeting, on the 17th of June : No. 723. " Description of the Dinting Vale viaduct, on the Sheffield and Manchester Railway." By A. S. Gee, Al.I. C. E. No. 725. " The application of gunpowder for blasting some marl rocks in the river Severn." By G. Edwards, AI. I. C. E. Osborne-house, on the 19th instant. We are also in formed that her Majesty will inspect the squadron at Spithead on the following day. The royal yacht is now reported quite ready for the royal use, and will be em pled to convey the royal party to O s b orne . Itn Harbour—The Hibernia, Victory, Excellent, 'Vic toria and Albert, Siren, Diligence transport, Resistance troop-ship, and Comet, Fearless, and Echoe steamers. In Dock—The Prince Regent, Trincomalee, Centaur, and Amphitrite. Ia the Basin—The Athol troop-ship. At Spithead—The St. Vincent, Trafalgar, Queen, Rodney, Albion, Canopus, Vanguard, and Superb. DEVONPORT.—AdmiraI Sir John West, Commander in-Chief at this port, returned from leave on Monday evening, and hoisted his flag the following morning on board the Pandora, 6, Lieutenant-Commander Wood, in Barnpool. The Penguin, 6, Lieutenant-Commander Leslie, sailed on Tuesday for Falmouth, to take out the next mail to the Brazils, The Rhadamanthus steam-transport, Master-Com mander Laen, arrived on Tuesday from Portsmouth, and embarked the depot of the 7th Fusiliers, with which she left on Wednesday for Kinsale. The .Elecate steam-vessel, Commanaer Bower, arrived on Tuesday froom Woolwich. The Vulture, first-class steam-frigate, Captain M'l)ou gall, arrived on Tuesday evening from Sheerness, lase from Spithead, en route to the East India station. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCHEQUER, June 14. THE ATTORNEY-GENERAL U. JEFFS. This was an indictment at the suit of the Crown, for having illegally unshipped a quantity of foreign books, the duty not having been paid upon them. The penalty sued for in this case ,was 1001., but the defendant, who is a foreign bookseller, carrying on business in Burling ton Arcade, was also made liable for a greater amount of penalties under different counts. The circumstances connected with this case arose from out of the " Cus toms' frauds," with which the public are now so familiar, and the evidence given in support of this case was simi lar to that heretofore given in the cases which occurred last year in this Court. The jury, shortly before four o'clock, retired to con sider their verdict, and, after an absence of two hours, returned a verdict for the Crown. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COURT, June 14, MR. CHARLES MATHEWS AND HIS CREDITORS. A further sitting was appointed to be held before Mr. Commissioner Law, in the case of Mr. Charles Mathews, under the insolvency in the year 1842, after the lessee ship of Covent•garden Theatre, but the meeting was ad • journed to Tuesday next. A dividend of 4d. in the pound will be, it is expected, declared, and those creditors who do not attend on the next occasion will be precluded. The dividend under the insolvency has nothing to do with the dividend now payable of is. Bd. in the Court of Bankruptcy. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. BOTV-STREET. John Taylor, a respectably-dressed man, who stated that he Ices a cabinet-maker, residing at 7, Gillingham-street, Vauxhall-road, was charged with having in his possession a quantity of silver, without giving a satisfactory account of how he obtained it. Mr. James E. Seymour, a dealer in gold and silver, stated that he resided at 33, Long-acre, and that on Friday evening, about seven o'clock, the prisoner entered his shop and offered for sale a quantity of broken up silver plate, weighing 360 z. 14dwts. lie had been to witness's shop on a former occa sion, and sold a quantity of property of a similar character to the foreman, and, as witness suspected that it was the pro ceeds of a robbery, the prisoner was detained until an officer arrived, who took him into custody. The prisoner, in his defence, said, that he let part of his house ready furnished ; and about two years ago a foreigner came and hired a bed-room, for which he paid down a so vereign. On the following morning, however, he informed the prisoner that he must be off to the Continent at once. He added, that in all probability he would return in three months, but if he did not, lie gave him (prisoner) full per- mission to dirpose of his goods, among which was the broken plate in question. He kept it two years, but as the gentle man did not return, he thought he would dispose of it. The gentleman had told him if lie was questioned about it he was to say he bought it from a gentleman named John Johnson, in Upper Seymour-street, Somers-town, and lie would then find no difficulty in getting rid of it. He had done so at Mr. Seymour's, and, to his great surprise, was given into custody, ➢ir. JARDINE said it was a very suspicious case, and he should remand the prisoner until inquiries should be made. The prisoner applied to be admitted to bail for any amount, but was refused. IVIARLBOROUGII-STREE T. Charles Hughes, a waiter at Morley's Hotel, w as charged with stealing some sugar and tea, and other articles belong ing to Mr. A. Morley, the proprietor of the hotel, and fur ther charged on suspicion of being concerned in robberies which have recently occurred at the hotel, in which much valuable property has been taken away. It appeared that a number of portfolios and writing-cases belonging to the various residents at the hotel, among them those of Lord Lurgan, Sit Piers Mostyn, Mrs. Herne, Mr. Galley, &c., had been ripped open in one night, and sovereigns, seals, miniatures, and other valuables abstracted to the value of some hundreds of pounds. Police-sergeant Whall, C divi sion, wascalled in, and he recognised the prisoner as a man who had been in custody on suspicion of stealing plate from the Burlington Hotel. A search took place, and a quantity of tea, sugar, and other ar ti c l es were f oun d i n t h e pr i soner ' s closet, which no doubt had been stolen. This, coupled with the prisoner's previous suspicious character was considered sufficient to warrant his being taken into custody on the above charge. Mr. ILarinwtcx decided on remanding the prisoner for a week. MAI?YLEBOIVE. John Frost, a bookbinder, residing at 4, John•street, Edgware-road, was summoned before Mr. Long, by Adelaide Adams, a girl not yet sixteen years of age, for the support of a child to which she had given birth. Complainant on being sworn, stated - simply the fact, that on the 6th of April last, she was delivered of an infant, and that defendant was the father thereof. In reply to the Magistrate, complainant said that defendant was living with her s►ster, and that she was in the habit of going to their dwelling. Fanny Frost said that defendant was her son, and that he had lived with Ellen Adams, whom he had promised to marry, for three years, and the banns between them had already been published in church. She (witness) had never heard him admit that Adelaide's child was his. It had been men tioned to her that she was in the family way. and that she intended to swear the baby to her son, the defendant. Mr. Loxu—When you knew of her being in the family way, did you say anything to your son upon the subject ? Witness—l did, Sir ; and the answer he made me was, that the child was not his. Ellen Adams (21 years old) admitted that she had been cohabiting with defendant for the period before alluded to, and that her sister Adelaide had visited them very fre quently ; she had never heard defendant say that the baby belonged to him, in fact he always denied that such was the case. In answer to the Magistrate, witness said, I have never seen anything wrong, nor did 1 ever suspect that there was an improper intimacy ; she has slept at my place perhaps as many as twenty times, and I have made up a bed for her in one corner of the room in which I and defendant also slept. I generally got up first of a morning, but never to my know ledge left John and Adelaide in the apartment by them selves. I have not seen her upon terms of familiarity with any one in particular. Complainant's mother here said she had no doubt what ever with regard to defendant having taken an improper ad vantage of her child Adelaide, but notwithstanding that, she should be quite satisfied if he would marry Ellen, with whom he had so long lived, and thus make an " honest woman" of her. She had no further evidence than that of her daughter Adelaide as to defendant being the babe's father. Mr. LONG, addressing defendant, said—This affair has cer tainly a very dark appearance against you, but there has not been sufficient stated to justify me in making an order upon you. If you are guilty, it is one of the most horrible things I have heard of for a long time. Defendant then left the court, promising that Ellen Adams should very soon have her name changed to that of Frost. C,'L ERKE.N WELL. _ _ John Jordan, a journeyman in the employ of Mr. Joseph Whitehouse, spectacle manufacturer, of Wilmington-street, Wilmington-square, Clerkenwell, was brought before Mr. Combe, on a warrant, charged with having left his work un finished. Mr. Wakeling, the solicitor, attended for the prosecution, and said the defendant was one of those persons who fancied that they could treat their masters as mere instruments for their convenience, and leave their work unfinished whenever they thought proper, to the injury of the masters. He wished to convince them that they could not do so with impunity, and that the law would punish thorn when they did wrong. The defendant had been before guilty of similar misconduct. The defendant, in his defence, pleaded illness, which the prosecutor was not inclißed to believe, as he had so often re peated the offence. Mr. COMBE asked if he would go and finish the work now that he was able ?—The defendant consented to do so, and after a reprimand from the magistrate, the case was post poned for a fortnight, when the warrant will be again exe cuted on the defendant, if he fail doing the work. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, JUNE 13.—Admiral Sir C. Rowley, Bart., Commander-in-Chief at this port, struck his flag last night at sunset on board the St. Vincent, 120 ; and the Rear- Admiral Superintendent of the Dockyard, Sir Hyde Parker, struck his flag on board the Victory at the same time, and heisted it at the wizen of the St. Vincent, as commander of the experimental squadron, having received his appointment to that responsible duty last evening. The Hibernia, 100, Captain Richards, has orders to join the experimental squadron at Spithead. In order to enable her to do so with as little delay as possible, 140 extra ship. wrights and 45 joiners:and a proportionate number of painters, plumbers, and other essential hands were put upon her on Tuesday, who have continued to work from six o'clock is the morning until eight at night. Another fatal accident has occurred on board this ship. On Tues day, while the gun hoy was alongside, and the seamen were engaged in slinging the guns from the hoy, and hoisting them on board, a seaman named William Jack son, who had just slung a gun, was struck by it, and positively smashed flat against the side of the ship. The Lords of the Admiralty have issued an order granting permission to naval officers disposed to witness the triak of sailing between the ships forming the expe rimental squadron, to join any ship of the squadron for - the period of the cruise, and to be borne on the ship's books for the regulation allowance of provisions. As they wilt be merely spectators, no pay will be allowed. Second Lieutenant Dowman, two sergeants, four cor porals, and 114 privates from this division of the Royal Marines embarked yesterday on board the Rodney, 92, Captain Collier, as supernumeraries. Second Lieutenant Ward, three sergeants, five cor porals, and 132 privates, embarked yesterday on board Ile St. Vincent, 120, Captain Rowley, to make up her complement. We are informed that her Majesty has signified her intention to revisit the new royal marine residence, DUTCH MAIL. THE HAGUE, JUNE 11.—The first chamber of the States-General is convoked for Tuesday, the 17th inst. Their Royal Highnesses Prince and Princess Frederick of the Netherlands and their children arrived at Berlin on the 7th instant. We are assured that the debates in the project of law for the budget of 1846 and 1847, will take place in the course of next week. The sections have terminated their examination of the pro jects of law, and the report is very shortly expected, after which the debate will commence immediately. The section will begin to-morrow the examination of the project of law relative to the elective franchise. The Committee of the Second Chamber, in whose hands is the petition from Amsterdam, respecting the affairs of Surinam, met the day before yesterday. [ADVERTISEMENT.]—The Atrapilatory, or Liquid Heir Dye, the only dye that really answers for all colours, and does not require re•doing, but as the hair grows, as it never fades or acquires that unnatural red or purple tint common to all other dyes. Ross and Sons can, with the greatest confidence, recommend the above dye as in fallible, if done at their establishment ; and ladies or gentlemen requiring it, are requested to bring a friend or servant with them to see how it is used, which will enable them to do it afterwards without the chance of failure. Several private apartments devoted entirely to the above purpose, and some of their establishment having used it, the effect produced can be at once seen. They think it necessary to add, that by attending strictly to the instructions given with each bottle of dye, nume rous persons have succeeded equally well without coming to them. Address Ross and Sons, 119 and 120, Bishops gate-street, the celebrated Perruquiers, Perfumers, Hair-cutters, and Hair-dyers. N.B. Parties attended at their own residences, whatever the distance. SALMON FISHING.—The take continues to be very Moderate, although the late rains have deepened the current of the river, and in ordinary seasons the salmon would have run up in numbers from the sea. A very large trout, weighing 11113., was caught on Saturday at the head of MoncriefFe Island. It was a finely formed fish, and could only have been discerned from a salmon by experienced fishers. Perthshire Courier. GROUP X. CAMBRIDGE AND LINCOLN RAILWAY. (Continued from our Afternoon Edition of Saturday.) __ The witness said that at present the persons who conveyed turf to London occupied about six or seven days in the journey, and then had but a very precarious mode of disposing of it. Here some spechnens of the turf were produced, which created some laughter. Mr. Stevens, gardener, of St. Ives, deposed that there were from 1,500 to '2,000 acres of the country in the neighbourhood of that town under cultivation as gardens, for the produce of vegetables and fruit of all sorts, which he sent to London for sale. His trade would be materially increased, and the expense ofcarriage lessened, if the proposed line were made. He produced a description of summer pear, which was of a very perishable nature, and had often lost great quantities of them by the delay on the road. If they could be sent in one night this loss could not take place. The same ob. servations applied to other fruits and vegetables of an equally perishable nature. Mr. E. Lyons, dealer in wool at St. Ives—Buys about 80 tons of wool yearly, which he sends to Yorkshire; would send it by the railway if it were made, and would save about IL 14s. per ton in the carriage by that mode of conveyance. Mr. T. Barlow, Director of the Bank of England at Ramsey— His sons were in business also in that.town ; the roads new leading to it were not very good; the population was about 4,000. The proposed railway would very much facilitate the transit of the goods in which his sons traded, as well as lessen the expense end distance of conveyance. Mr. James Thompson, farmer and cattle-salesman at Ramsey— About 400 sheep and 40 beasts went weekly from Ramsey to St. Ives and London, half of which number witness himself sent. The present cost of sending a beast to London from Ramsey was from 10s. to I le., and the journey occupied from six to seven days. There was an additional expense of 3s. 6d. per head for selling. Sheep occupied ten days, and the cost was Is. 6d. per head. Mr. Wittorme, corn merchant and farmer at Ramsey—The district about that town was remarkable for its agricultural produce. The roads from that town, north and south, were very bad at present. A railway between these two points would be of great advantage for the transit of corn, particularly to the towns of Lynn, Wisbeach, and Cambridge. The journey from Ramsey to Cambridge now occupied from three to four days. Often sustained great injury on the road, during winter, by reason of bad roads. To the CHAIRMAN-The roads from the east to Ramsey were also very bad. From Ramsey to March the journey was by a narrow high way across the Fens. Mr. Stafford, landowner at Ramsey—There is a great deal more corn grown in the neighbourhood than is consumed there. There are about 2,000 acres of wheat grown there in the year. The present modes of conveyance were very bad and inconvenient both by land and water. The nearest way was by St. Ives. Mr. James Jones, land agent to Lord Hardwizk, Sir Henry Paton, and several others, represents between 30,000 and 40,000 acres in the neighbourhood of Ramsey. Had been engaged as valuator under the Tithe Commutation Act. The proposed railroad would pass through a very fertile district, by which a great quantity of land would be brought into an improved state of cultivation by drainage, &c The roads to the west of Ramsey were very bad. Those to the east were much better. At the conclusion of the witness's examination, the Committee adjourned, at three o'clock, to twelve on Monday. THE SHERIFFS' DINNER TO THE JUDGES. On Saturday the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex gave a most splendid entertainment to the Judges, at Gird ler's-hall, Basinghall-street. Amongst the company were Lord Denman, chiefjustice of the Queen's Bench ; Chief Baron Pollock, the Bishop of Llandaff, Mr. Masterman, M.P. for the City of London, several of the Sergeants at-Law, and other members of the bar, of the Alder men and Common Councilmen, and of the clergy. After the customary honours had been paid to the Queen, the Queen Dowager, Prince Albert. and the rest of the Royal Family, upon the proposition of the Sheriffs, who alternately officiated, Sheriff and Alderman SIDNEY said he felt great plea sure in giving the health of the Lord Bishop of Llandaff, who was so distinguished a representation of the talents and virtues of the Church. The Sheriffs were, he as sured the company, most proud of the honour done them by the eminent pr e l a t e , w h oseexam pl e was so admirably calculated to exalt the moral and religious character of the people.—(Cheers.) The Lord Bishop of LLANDAFF rose to return thanks, as the principal representative present of the Church to which the toast referred. he felt that the ministers of the Church deserved the acknowledgments offered by the Company to their zeal and exertions. It was with sincere pleasure he bore testimony to the improved con duct of the clergy.—(Cheers.) They had greatly im proved, and were stilt improving, and it was to that ad vance in improvement he attributed the cordial respect with which they had been treated of late years by the people. He remembered when, about 10 or 12 years ago, a very differ en t f ee li ng was ex hibi ted toveards them, and it was no in cons id era bl e consolation to him to per ceive the change, because he was justified, not only in drawing an inference from it in favour of the character of the people, but in considering it a manifestation of a corresponding influence upon the conduct and character of the clergy.—(Cheers.) He recollected the time when, in passing Temple-bar, he witnessed evidences of an im pression towards his brethren of the Church greatly at variance with that which he now felt so much gratifica tion in describing, and he trusted that by persevering in the great cause of religious instruction, and strengthen ing it by their example, and confining themselves within the proper sphere of their duties, they should, through the blessing of God, still more effectually attract to themselves the respect and veneration of the people. Sheriff and Alderman HUNTER proposed the "Health of Lord Denman, Chief Baron Pollock, and the other members of the Bench." It gave him, he declared, high gratification to introduce to the company names of such distinguished character connected with the administra tion of the laws of the country. When he mentioned the Lord Chief Justice of the Queen's Bench, he was sure he addressed himself to the unanimous sympathy of those around him.—(Cheers.) He had enjoyed the honour of knowing that excellent and eminent individual before the Noble and Learned Lord's attainment of the high situation which he filled, so much to his own credit and so much to the service of the community; and he spoke the language of the whole country when he said, that never had that distinguished office been held by a person more highly qualified.—(Cheers.) Of the Chief Baron, whose connexion with the City of London was also of long standing, they could all speak in terms of similar admiration.—(Cheers.) Lord Chief Justice DENMAN begged to assure the Company that his Learned Brother and himself enter tained the highest sense of the compliment which had been in so flattering a manner passed upon them. They felt it not so much in consequence of any personal claims they might be supposed to have, as from the pride they enter tained in representing their Learned Brethren who were unavoidably absent, and to whose merits so well deserved a tribute had been paid. They felt proud to acknowledge that in their endeavours to perform the duties which they were called upon to fulfil, they received the warmest sup port from the magistrates of London.—(Cheers.) It would be improper, on such occasions as the present, to omit the opportunity which presented itself, of expressing his feeling towards the City of London, to which he had, as it were, served his apprenticeship, and to his con nexion with which he owed the elevated situation in which he had the honour of being placed, and his rank and station in society.—(Loud cheers.) He never allowed any occasion, on which he could express his deep obligations to the City of London to pass, with (out in the most grateful manner making that acknow ledgment, and he should seize every future opportunity of testifying his sincerity. Ile regretted that he did not see at this splendid banquet more of his Learned Brethren, but he knew that th e y were en j oy i ng t h e hol i days, to which they were so well entitled, and which their one rous labours rendered so necessary. In their name, and in his own behalf, be returned thanks for the honour Just passed in th e toast.—(Cheers.) He should leave it to his Learned Brother, the Chief Baron, to address the MAGAZINES-(CONTINUED) FI3IIER'S COLOMAL MAGAZINE. In this number we have the commencement of " Sou venirs, a Voyage to India," by Capt. Doveton, which promises to be very interesting. " Trinidad in the Nineteenth Century," is concluded, and there is an account of the " Character and Habits of the Guaranno Indians," in which the writer observes that " to read of the primitive habits of our fellow-creatures is not only amusing, but is also highly instructive, as teaching us to be thankful to an all-bountiful Providence for the great benefits and advantages of civilization, which we enjoy in this our highly-favoured country." There is an article on the benefits of emigration, and there are other papers of foreign and colonial interest. POLY TECHNIC MAGAZIAE. This number commences with an interesting article on " British National Sculpture," in which the writer ob serves that " the monuments erected to our great me❑ are in general placed in too retired and hidden situa tions ; their earthly remains ought to repose in our most hallowed mausoleums, but the monuments erected to emblazon their merits ought to be as public as were their actions." A " Chapter on Eyes," is• concluded, and is full of useful information. There is a long article on " Vestiges of Creation," some remarks on the " Atmospheric principle in Railways," " The Royal Academy," and various other interesting papers. We perceive from the introduction that we have received the last number of the Polytechnic Magazine, at least the last that will bear that name. This useful and interest ing periodical has passed into other hands, and will be continued under the title of the Oxford and Cambridge Review. Whatever its name, we hope it may command all the success due to a publication which endeavours not to please the fancy of its readers, but to enlarge the mind and improve the understanding. HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE Lucretia Borgia was repeated last night, and the ballet of Rosida followed, and concluded the entertain ments. The house, notwithstanding the heat of the weather, was crowded to excess, but the excellent venti lation of this vast area in a great degree remedied the inconvenience that might be felt from the oppressive character of the weather in any other theatre. An acci dent which occurred to Cerito at the close of the ballet caused a considerable sensation in the house, and abruptly terminated the piece. She slipped and fell heavily on the stage in the last tableau, and hurt herself,it was supposed, severely. Her reappearance, however, reassured the audience, and showed that, however, un pleasant the a'cident, it was not, happily, of a serious character; and the cheers with which she was greeted must have served as a panacea for her fright. COURT CIRCULAR. WINDSOR, SATURDAY.—Her Majesty's private band at tended yesterday evening in the Castle, and performed the fol lowing pieces : Overture—" La Part du Diable "—Auber.
