THOMAS MOSELEY, Clerk to the Committee. MEN OF BIRMINGHAM, &c., NON ELECTORS !—The legal opinion of a Jesuitical lawyer, " Hill," read on Thursday last at the National Con vention, stated that the objects of the Convention did net in his opinion drop under the legislative views of 57 Geo. IV., cap. 19—omitting to state, as he ought to have done, the sub silentio designs of the present administrative factions, Whig and Tory, against all " musters of record on the free voice of the people," cognizable by the ecclesiastical law, 14 Charles 11., section 31, as " set forth in the Book," which the yearly passing of " the Mutiny Act" puts in Select Vestry force, on the assent of Queen, her Peers, and her Commons. Hence the anxiety to read (next Week) the Mutiny Act (which the present genera tion supposes only in reference to the Army—Frost qy.?) so early in Session declarative of " all musters of record by the people," felony.

COWES-ISLE OF WIGHT. (FROM 01t OWN CORRESPONDENT.) ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE. Lord Canning in his schooner yacht Gondola ; E. N. Harvey, Esq , in his brigantine yacht Menai ; and the lion. Henry Upton, in his yawl yacht Morning Star were lying at Naples on the 16th ult. On the 25th his Lordship arrived at Genoa; on his passage he had the misfortune to lose ore of his crew (James Wheeler of Ryde, J. W.,) in a gale of wind in the night of the 19th off Elba. The poor fellow fell from the jib-boom ; every exertion was made to save him, but he was never seen to rise- The Gondola atAl Menai are expected home in April. A letter has been received front Captain Corry, of her Majesty's ship Barham, dated Malta, Jan. 24, ° by which we learn that we may expect that ship's arrival in Eng land in a week or ten days. The Captain's cutter yacht Pet is fitting out here with all haste, to be ready to join the Barham the moment she arrives. Lord Exmouth has purchased the Flower of Yarrow of Mr. Charles Smith, and the Secretary of the Royal Yacht Society has sold the Hon. C. H. Cult's cutter yacht Midge. The Crusader schooner yacht will sail from Cowes for Naples, to receive her owner, Robert Meiklam, Esq. The Earl of Yarborough's yacht Kestrel is hauled up on Mr. Joseph White's patent slip to be lengthened 13 feet 4 inches in midships; she is to be yawl-rigged next sum mer. There is also on the same slip Sir Joseph Copley's cutter yacht Witch, and Mr. Halsey's cutter yacht Fanny ; the former to be coppered, the latter to have her accommo dations altered. Mr. A. llill's schooner yacht will be ready for launching from-thc same yard in the beginning of May. Mr. M. Ratsey has the Hon. Augustus Morton's cutter yacht Elizabeth on his shipway undergoing extensive te• pairs. The Hon. Lindsay Burrell's yacht lengthening six feet ; and is building a felucca for J. Beardmore, Esq. G. H. Achers, Esq., has a new three-toasted schooner yacht of 375 tons, building by Mr. Ruble; and the Rev. Denis George a cutter yacht of 60 tons by Mr. Inman.— Mr. Camper is lengthening the Hon. R. F. Grenville's brig Charlotte 20 feet in midships, and increasing her beam 2 feet 7 inches. We are happy to find that there are several candidates to be balloted for at the next general meeting of the Royal Yacht Society, at the Thatched House Tavern, St. James's street, on Saturday the llth of May. The Secretary has several applications for yachts ; the funds of the squadron are in a most flourishing condition, and the members ra pidly on the increase. Wind W. S. W., fresh, very thick.—Arrived the Russian brig Marasli, Captain Jancovich, from Antwerp, for Con stantinople. The charge of mutiny by Captain Galt, of the American ship Ulysses, from Baltimore for Amsterdam, against nine of the crew, has been under investigation by the American Consul at this port during the week, the Magistrates hav ing declined to interfere, the men being foreigners, and the offence happening on the high seas. The particulars have not transpired, but report says the outbreak was occasioned by the Captain flogging one of the men; that the men had fire arms; that one of them snapped a pistol twice at the Captain; that it happened when they had been out but nine days; that they had been fourteen days in irons; and that the ship was worked for that time by the Captain, two mates, the cook, the steward, and one seaman. THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B. SOLO MONS, Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Alber. marle-street, Piccadilly, by which thousands of deaf persons have been greatly benefited, is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more per ceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest whis: - er at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defective VISION is brought to n ature by the use c f newly invented SPE( TACLE LENSES; immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eye - sight , either b y day or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with great distinctness, by the use of which both the tight and hearing become much improved. '1 he Messrs. SO LOMONS disclaim all connexion with persons of the same name, and the sale of Amber Spectacles. In doing so they state the HISTORY OF AMBER, from the DICTIONARY OF A ItIS AND SCIENCES" OF ANDREW URE, M.D., indurated vegetable juice, and not produced by the laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found imbedded in it. Amber is most powerfluly electrical by friction— very hot, to such an extent as to explode into fragments; the work. men, too, are subject to nervous tremors in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they encounter great danger by handling such dreadful excited elec tries ; amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to warmth, that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with flame. The above Dr. lire's statements are further confirmed by Sir D. Brewster and Pliny, as also by Parkes and Hems, chemists. The de structive effects of such a material for spectacles to imperfect vision are fully and most satisfactorily explained in Messrs. Curtis and Dol. loud's Second Edition on the Preservation of Sight, and may be as. certained at any respectable optician's in London. The Messrs. Solo mons' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material ibut which are very superior, and bring back at once dul ness of sight and imperfect vision to its original and natural state. these Spectacles, and very small Voice Conductors for deaf persons, are only to be had at their establishment, 39, Albemarle-street, Picca dilly, opposite the York Hotel.

The above is another proof of the great efficacy of thii excellent Medicine, which has called forth the grateful thanks and approbation of all classes of society. From many of the highest branchei of the nobility to the poorest peasant. they have happily been the means of giving a degree of health and comfort, which fn most cases have not been enjoyed for years; they effectually relieve the most acute fit of Gout in a few hours, and seldom fail toenable the patient to resume his impressed usual avocation in two or three days, and if taken on the first syinp. toms, the patient is frequently left in doubt as to the reality of the attack. And there is another most important effect belonging to this Medicine—that it prevents the disease flying to the brain, stomach, or other vital part.

PORTSMOUTH, FEB. 22.—1 n Harbour —The Britannia, 120, flag-ship • Victory, 104, ordinary guard-ship; Excel lent gunnery-slip: Royal George yacht ; Pantaloon, 10 ; Messenger steam-transport; and tenders Fanny and Gos- samer. In Basin—The Etna bomb, for the coast of Scotland. In Dock—Not anything in commission. At Spitheal—No vessel of war. ARRIVALS, SAILINGS, &c., DURING THE WEEK. On Tuesday, the 19.—Sailed the Seaflower cutter for Jersey, for the protection of the oyster fisheries ; and on Wednesday, the 20th—The Gossamer tender returned from Sheerness. The above is the sum total of our proceedings at this port during the past week. Little enough, you will say, for the first naval port in England ; but we live in expec tation to see the truth of the old saying verified, " it never rains, but it pours." In one of my communications some time since, I ventured to give my opinion as to the pro priety of allowing the old working petty officers who may have been pensioned, to retain their pensions should they be disposed to serve again in the Navy, and I am very glad to see that the subject has been taken up by such able hands. I shall now venture humbly and respect fully to suggest another step, which, if adopted, would render the service more acceptable to newly raised men. That is to allow Volunteers (of course, I mean able sea men, ordinary and landsmen), to allot a portion of their.pay for the support of their families or relatives. As the case now stands, these persons may be in the flag-ship of either of the ports for two or three months, without this privi lege ; and even when drafted (it may be to a ship on a foreign station) are not entitled to make this declaration of allotment until they actually join the ship of which they are to make part complement. All this tune, of course, the families are starving, if not many of the relatives, and the greatest distress is the consequence. This certainly might be altered, at least when any emergency, just such as the present arises; and depend on it, would operate as an additional inducement for men to enter her Majesty's service.

PRICE sd. CURE for the HOOPING COUGH. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR...Reading in your Paper some few days ago an account of the dreadful ravages of the hooping cough, I beg to for ward an invaluable recipe, as an effectual cure for the same, having tried it in my own family, and numbers more to whom I have re commen d e d it, w ith great success. It is as follows :—Half an ounce of best Turkey rhubarb, half an ounce of common magnesia (not the calcined), half a Gascoigne ball, to be dissolved in teaspoonfuls of warm water, quarter of a pound of coarse moist sugar---all to be mixed in a pint of mild 4d. ale. A dessert spoonsful for a child two years old, to be given twice a day, on an empty stomach, and a little more in proportion to the age. Being an admirer of your Liberal principles, and a con stant reader of your invaluable Paper, I have sent you the above, not doubting your kindness in giving it publicity in your widely circulated columns, and thereby prevent the premature death of thousands. I am, Mr. Editor, your obedient servant, Mile-end-green, Stepney, Feb. 21. J. V. COMMERCIAL GAS LIGHT AND COKE COMPANY. A public meeting of the Gas Consumers of Bethnal-green and its vicinity was held yesterday evening at the Falcon Tavern, for the purpose of enabling the Commercial Gas Light and Coke Company to report progress, exhibit plans of their buildings, and give every information relative to their proceedings. At eight o'clock the large concert room at the Falcon was crowded with repectable persons, who seemed to take a great interest in the proceedings. Air. MORRIS said that it was exceedingly desirable that some individual should take the chair who was unconnected with the Company, and requested it as a favour if any gentleman pre sent was so circumstanced, that he would do so. After waiting some time without any one appearing willing to volun teer his services, he moved that Mr. Bingley, of Shoreditch, do take the chair. Mr. MONK. seconded the nomination, which was carried -unanimously. The CH A ntmAN said that he would endeavour to discharge the duties that had been imposed on him by the meeting fairly, and impartially. They had met there that evening for the purpose of discussing the propriety of establishing a gas company which should be a consumer's Gas Company, and the Commit tee had attended for the purpose of furnishing the meeting with any explanation on the subject which they might require. It was scarcely requisite for him to insist the import ance or the necessity of establishing this Company in order to enable the consumers of gas to free themselves by means of competition, from the consequences of the mono• poly which at present existed. There was no reason why there should not be a competition in gas as well as in every other article of consumption. The consumers of gas, in consequence of the present monopoly, were subjected to incivility and arbi ti ary conduct. By the establishment of the Commercial Gas Light and Coke Company they would be rescued from these evils, and the price of gas to the consumer would also be con siderably reduced. The new Company would never coales.:v with any other Company, so that by supporting it the con sumers would be frceieg themselves from monopoly at once and for ever. Their only object in establishing it was to se cure for the future a supply of gas of good quality and at a fair price.—( Hear, hear.) In conclusion, he would press upon the meeting the necessity of supporting the Company by be coming shareholders without delay. Mr. Moants said it was important that full latitude should be given to all those who were opposed to the establishment of the proposed Company in the expression of their objections before this meeting. If there were any of their opponents, he trusted they would come forward and state their objections fairly and openly, in order that they might be answered ; and he trusted that the meeting would give any persons connected with the existing Gas Companies who might happen to be present a patient and an attentive hearing. Meetings had frequently been held on this subject, and expectations had been held out as to speedy commencement of operations by this Company which had not been realized; but this had not been their fault. Events over which they possessed no controul, had occurred to frus trate their endeavours ; but he was happy to be able to an nounce that at length all obstacles had been removed ; and even if they were not so fortunate as to obtain the support they so earnestly desired, the works would be proceeded with forthwith. Reports had been circulated that they had no in ' tention of proceeding with their orks ; that they were in fact gulling the public. Now, although they had to overcome ob stacles almost insurmountable, many of which he verily believed had been thrown in their way by 11 - ;e Gas Companies, yet they were now in a position, even without further support, to com mence operations. If they could not light the whole of the district of the Tower Hamlets at present, they would begin by lighting part, and show the inhabitants what could be done in the way of resisting monopoly. Mr. Morris then referred to the plans of the intended new works which were hung up in the room. These were the plans of the intended works. They were sufficient for the supply of twelve miles of pipes, they consisted of a retort-house, a gasometer, and a pu rifying house, each of which was complete in itself and could be doubled should the operations of the Company ever become sufficiently extensive to require it. The Com ' any had taken four and a half acres of ground for the purpose of erecting these works. The other Gas Companies had endea voured to make it appear that the profits of Gas Companies were far from large—not sufficieatly so to admit of competition —yet he understood that 6 per cent. per share was by no means an uncommon dividend, in addition to which a bonus of 10/. per share was every now and then declared, and they shared these dividends notwithstanding the losses to which they were subjected by their continual contentions, and by their extravagant outlay of capital in the first in stance. The present Company would labour under none of these disadvantages, they had no houses to remove and pay for before they could commence their works—their situation was such that they were not a nuisance to any neighbourhood, and instead of having to erect iron tanks, at a cost of 1,3001. each, they would be enabled to sink their's in the stiff blue clay, at a cost of 400/. They would also be enabled to take ad vantage of all the recent improvements in gas makirg, which the existing Companies cannot do without pulling their works to pieces. He was prepared to prove that at a considerable re duction in the present price of gas they would realise a dividend of 9or 10 per cent. Ile could prove this from data, furnished him by the engineer of the Company, wh„se testtimonials as to character were of the highest description. He had been clerk to the works of the Equitable—had filled the same situation for two years with the London Gas Company—had construe ed the works at Godalming, Band, and a variety of other places— had altered the works at Croydon, and erected those at Vaux hall Gardens. They had already sufficient capital subscribed to enable them to commence operations ; and he urged those pre sent to join them in carrying the Company forward.—( Cheers. ) The CHAIRMAN said that the deed of settlement had been prepared and signed by the present shareholders. Mr. Mona's wished that some of their opponents would come forward and make their statements. They were willing enough to indulge in statements against this Compan behind their backs; why did not some of them come forward here and make them ?—( Cheers. ) Dlr. ROGERS said, that as no one had come forward in answer to the challenge of the last speaker, he concluded they had no one to contend with. As an illustration of what gas monopoly was, he would just state to the meeting that the Gas Company, who formerly supplied Vauxhall Gardsns, de manded 50/. for filling the Nassau balloon. The proprietors had recently erected works of their own at the cost of about 1,2001., and now they found that It only cost them 151. to fill the balloon. The following resolution was then proposed by Mr. Ws an, seconded by Mr. WARD, and passed unanimously : " Resolved that this meeting being painfully convinced, by practical experience, of the inadequacy of supply in the neces sary article of Gas, as at present doled out, and the exorbit ant charges, combined with the incivility on the part of the exist ing Companies, cannot help expressing their most earnest desires and wishes for a speedy relief from their present thraldom, by the establishment of a fair competition, which is the sure correc tive of all abuses." Mr. Molt xis said it had been stated that the existing Gas Companies would subscribe to put them down by reducing their price of gas so low as to crush them—but he did not think the public were to be thus grossly duped, he did not think any fair dealing man would lend himself to a proceeding so palpably dishonest—he slid not believe that any one would continue to deal with them after the discovery of such a detestable fraud. These Companies had talked of reducing the price of gas 20 per cent. in order to crush them, but even then they could com pete with them as they were not at near the expense of the present Companies. Do what they might to continue it, their odious monopoly would soon be for ever destroyed.—( Cheers. ) Several gentlemen here announced their intentions of be coming Shareholders. These announcements were received with great cheering. Mr. Roc ER said, that the establishment of this Company, would teach a useful lesson to the Gas Companies, not of the Tower ilamlets alone, but of the whole kingdom. Mr. CaownEtt said, that although not a consumer of gas, yet such was his admiration of the fair, straight-forward, and open manner in which the challenge to the existing Gas Com panies had been given that evening, so highly did the candour, with which the proceedings of this evening had been conducted meet his approval, that he begged to propose the following resolution : Resolved—. That this meeting, having heard with the greatest pleasure the statements made by the Committee of the Commercial Gas Company, feel bound in justice to themselves ; and their own interests, to support with their individual and combined efforts the exertions of the Commercial Gas Com pany, who hare already done so much to establish a Company free from all extortion and monopoly, and based on the pure principles of justice and honest competition, and earnestly re commend every inhabitant of the Tower Hamlets to support them by immediately becoming Shareholders." Mr. Ham-sap seconded the resolution, which was carried unanimously. The CHAIRMAN: thanked the meeting on the part of the Directors for this proof of their confidence, and assured them them that it should never be abused—it would make them redouble their efforts in their service. He could assure the meeting that should any attempt be ever made at coalition, be would immediately resign his seat as Director. Mr. Moitats said he had always behaved with candour in the presence as well as in the absence of their opponents. He stated the other day to three of the Directors of a Gas Com ; pany, in the presence of three hundred persons, that he had tested the gas s-pplied to the East parts of Loudon, and it was by far the foulest gas supplied by any of the Companies. This was denied, but he produced some clear test papers, and desired the Directors to try it themselves, which they refused to do. Mr. Morris then related se icral instances of arbitrary conduct an the part of the present Gas Compan:es. The CHAIRMAN, in answer to a question, said that the capital of the Company was 20,0001., in shares of 51. each, with a deposit of U., and three months between each call, and that it was exps•osly provided by the deed •f settlement that nu .hat eholder thould be liable for more than his own shares. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman for his able conduct in the Chair, and the meeting broke up at half-past nine o'clock. Several pm sun:: present applied for shares to the Secretary at the class of the proceedings. The Marquis of Normanhy has appointed Colo nel York his private secretary.
