PATENT PARAGON CAMPIIIITE LAMPS. The perfection of these Lamps over the Vesta has been happily attained by the invention of two parallel flat rings—a larger And a smaller forming a cone round the margin of the wick, which cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing every particle of volatilized vapour, it is free from smoke or smell, having perfect combustion, and in MR action, emits a light equal to 16 wax candles.

Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Folgate, will contain, throughout the season, all the most elegant recherche and new patterns, comprising Ormolu, China, Glass, and HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT has of late taken great interest in the breeding of the Llama, from which a very fine wool is obtained. The Cloth made of this is of a peculiarly soft and agreeable texture, and as some curiosity has been raised by the announcement of the registry of a coat under the new Act, by Messrs. NICOLL, of REGENT-STREET, TAILORS to the COURT, it may be marked that such was made of this material. The coat itself is termed the REGISTERED PALETO r, and in its appearance there Is nothing very singular, beyond a very gentlemanly neatness, and an absence of all unsightly vulgarity. Upon being submitted at Court it met with high lippro bation.—Morning Post, April 19. Amongst the registration of designs according to the new Act, that of a coat is to be found. The notion of securing the particular sub stance and cut of a coat is certainly a new one, but it speaks well for the working of an Act which thus secures the profit of a good judgment and well-directed ingenuity to those to whom alone it is due.—The Times, April 4. The REGISTERED PALETOT, Two Guineas. 114, Regent street, London. GOVERNMENT PROTECTION, under 6 and 7 Vic. cap. 65, for three years, obtained by H. J. and D. NICOLL, COURT TAILORS, 114, REGENT-STREET, I ondon, for their new introduction, the REGISTERED PALETOT, which is a summer overcoat, light in weight, embracing the convenience and comfort of the wrapper of tweed and its moderate price, without its inelegant and universally-admitted common appearance. The ma terial is of a peculiar softness, made expressly of the finest Llama Wool, and in its fashion is neither trop neglige nor trop habille, but whilst showing to advantage the proportions of the figure, it cannot encnmber free movement, worn riding or walking: it will also, from the neatness of its form, adMit of Its being used as a light Frock Coat —a desirable advantage in our warmest summer months, or abroad where heat is found oppressive. H. J. and D. NICOLL, sensitive to the importance of that vade mecum—a moderately-light overcoat in a climate so changeable as that of Great Britain—would not submit to the public the Registered Paletot till themselves were satisfied of its being perfect, and that when used as a pardessus, riding or walking, or as summer frock, the above firm might pledge a reputation, which, gained by matured skill and honoured by royal patronage, is of some standing. This they can do with safety, as their new introdu tion, they respectfully submit, will not compromise that characteristic of an English gentleman— the unassumed neatness of his attire. As a wide extended sale is sought, the very moderate price of Two Guineas is fixed. Respectable firms will alone be treated with relative to an agency for the sale of the Registered Paletot, to whom alone a discount can be allowed.

The meeting held at the Crown and Anchor Tavern, to protest ac inst the Maynooth grant, which we brittly noticed yesterday, was composed of persons delegated by congregations of various re. ligious denominations throughout the empire, the great majority being from Dissenting bodies. At ten o'clock Sir Culling Eardley Smith was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN suggested that the proceedings should be opened with a prayer, such as should be appropriate to the very impor tant and extraordinary circumstances under which they had as sembled. _ . The Rev. Dr. HottowaY, in accordance with the desire of the Chairman, offered up a prayer, in which he was joined by the meeting. The prayer having concluded, The CIIAIRMLN again rose and said, that they had met on that occasion to discharge their duties as Christians, and to avail them selves of their rights as Englishmen.—(Hear, hear.) In his opinion a great insult had been offered to that religion which, he thanked God, notwithstanding minor differences, they all held in common.—(Cheers.) They had reason to be grateful that they lived in a land of freedom, where they could meet together and devise measures for attaining the object they had in view, or failing in that, to consider what remedy they would resort to; to that object —the devising of plans by which the en dowment of Popery might be prevented—the proceedings of that day would be mainly devoted.—(Cheers.) It was not necessary for them to go at length into the question itself, upon which they were all agreed.—(Cheers.) They had less to do with the arguments in favour of Maynooth than with the duties which devolved upon them in consequence of the decisions which had recently been arrived at in the House of Commons.— (Hear, hear.) He felt that it would be impossible to avoid alto gether any discussion of the question itself, which involved 'opics of very great delicacy ; but it was important that they should stand a united phalanx together. In contending against the endowment of Popery, in the name of their common Saviour, lie hoped that they would not, on this occasion, go into the question of religious establishments, as on this occasion neither the church man nor the advocate of the voluntary system could be suspected of departing from his own religious or conscientious grounds in opposing the, endowment of Mayneoth.—(Hear.) The question which they had now to consider was—whether their country was to be dishonoured by the recognition of Popery ?—(Cheers)—and to that question he should beg them to confine themselves. Sir Robert Peel stated that, in consequence of certain circulars which had been sent from London to the country, he did not regard the opposition which had been expressed to this subject of as much importance as he might under other circnmstances, and it was, therefore, the more necessary for them to meet on that day—(Cheers)—in order that they might remove all doubts from the Premier's mind with regard to this question. The Chairman then called the attention of the meeting to the following correspondence between the Anti. Maynooth Committee and the Premier : " Central Anti-Maynooth Committee. " Sir Culling Eardley Smith presents his compliments to Sir Robert Peel, and begs, at the request of this Committee, to state that deputations from various parts of the country on the subject of the endowment of hfaynooth are expected to arrive in London on Wednesday next. Some members of the deputation will be glad to have the honour of an interview with Sir Robert Peel on Thursday, if that day should be convenient, its which case Sir C. Smith would be obliged by Sir Robert fixing an hour when it will be in his power to receive them. " The Right Hon. Sir R. Peel." LOSS OF THE SKYLARK. PORTSMOUTH, NN .!EDNESDAY. The following particulars relating to the wreck of her Majesty's brig Skylark may be relied on as authentic, being an extract from the private letter of an eye witness:— " The Skylark, 2, Lieutenant-Commander George Morris (1823), sailed from Plymouth on Thursday, April 24, with 68 supernumeraries on board for Ports mouth, which, together with her own crew, made about 110 men. She passed the Portland Lights on the morn ing of the 25th early: it soon after became very foggy. At a few minutes after 10 o'clock, when the ship was going about 4A- knots, with topgallant sails set, she struck ; attempts were immediately made to put her about, but being between two ledges of rock she again struck, and would not go about. Attempts were then made to back her off, the hands were turned up, and every precaution and exertion used ; all, however, was ineffectual. About 11 o'clock, A.M., the fog cleared off a little, and the ship was found to be within hail of the shore, and the people on board the brig could hear voices from the cliffs calling to them that a boat was coming to their assistance from the Coast-guard station. One of the guns was then hove overboard, and an anchor dropped with a halser to it, to lighten her and haul her off; at this time the water started ; the hands were immediately set to work at the pumps, and the boats were got out, but the tide, being on the ebb, soon left her with two fe t of water under her bows and three quarters of a fathom in the channels ; aft there was a greater depth. She had run ashore on Coalpit Ledge, near Kimberage, a short distance to the eastward of the tower which stands on the eastward point of Yellow bay. There was not much wind blowing at the time, but a tremendous surf setting in shore. The coast-guard boat above-named was nearing the brig under the guidance of Lieutenant Smith, when the brig's second gig (which had been got out to communicate with the shore), in which, besides the boat's crew, was the com mander's son, a boy 11 years old, upset. Master Morris sank several times, and was on the point of sinking to rise no more alive, when one of the crew of the coast guard boat, named Crawley, swam out to him and sup ported him until Lieutenant Smith, of the Coast Guard, at the imminent risk of his own life, rushed in, and saved them all, and returned to the bay with them. The brig's cutter was then hoisted out, and filled with men, after immense difficulty, who were safely landed on the shore of the bay. Lieutenant Smith, having landed the commander's son and the boat's crew, returned, and went as near the brig as the breakers would admit, and put one of his men in the Skylark's dingy,' who directed two boys who were in her to put her alOngside the lee quarter of the brig. They did so, and took in six men, and put them on board the Coast-guard boat ; but Lieutenant Smith, observing the aek ward !less of the boys in the dingy, put two more of his men in her, who went to and from the stranded brig in a most dexterous and intrepid manner, bringing each time as many of the brig's crew as the dingy could safely hold, and placing them on board the coast-guard vessel, until it was full, when it pulled away with them fur the b . ay. The tide having gone down, at,d the surf decreased in violence, the dingy was enabled to land her men on the ledge, which was but a stone's throw from the brig's bows, until nearly all were landed. A boat, the Bee, of Weymouth, then came alongside and took the rest of the crew and the master out. Commander Morris, having the gout in one of his legs, and having used almost superhuman exertions to save his ship, was quite exhausted when the last boat went alongside ; so far, indeed, was his strength prostrated, that he was incapable of getting into the boat to save him self, and was thrown overboard, and picked up by the first gig. Lieutenant Smith had returned in the meantime, and advised the officers to send the cutter off to the wreck to endeavour to get some sails and spays wherewith to make tents for the men, as the tower was not large enough for them all to sleep in and also to save as much from the wreck as possible, as it appeared most probable she would go entirely to pieces when the tide flowed, and offered to assist with his men and boat, which was thankfully accepted. Accordingly, every exertion was immediately used, and a great quantity of the sails, spars, provisions, and some of the others' pro perty was got ashore. Commander Granby arrived from - Swanage-bay in his tender, the Gertrude, in the after part of the day (having received information by express , from Lieutenant Smith respecting the wrec k of the Sky lark), and immediately took his boat to the brig and rendered all the assistance in his power. By 10 o'clock at night, the wind still blowing fresh, the Gertrude had a great quantity of stores , arms , and some of the officers' goods on board, with which she get underweigh, and , after considerable dang er and difficulty,. cleared the ledges and safely got into Swanage Bay with them by 12 o'clock at night." tv434 vi itOttkvt. both 444 ‘4l? 011 , 141! vbit Jitul k leia uses evened: umaillszow y: The Rev.

The CHAIRMAN stated that he had reason to believe that the Right Reverend Bench would make a strong stand against the measure; the Bishops of Exeter, Lincoln, Chester, Winchester, Ripon, and Cashel, had already most distinctly declared against it. The Rev. ATMOOD, from Newark, said that such was the feeling in the locality he represented against the measure, that their right honourable misrepresentative need not trouble himself to come down among them again to solicit their toes, for he most assuredly would not obtain them.

Long before that hour immense crowds of people were assembled at the approaches on both sides of the river, anticipating the usual formalities that accompany such an interesting event ; but they were doomed to be disappointed, for with the exception of a display of flags, there was no ceremony of any kind on the occasion. The to:I is one halfpenny each person, and the arrangements for re. coiving it are similar to those at Waterloo-bridge. It stands much higher above the water than any of the other bridges, and its light and airy appearance presents a very marked contrast to the solid and massive structure a little lower down, of which it threatens to be a formidable rival. In consequence of the wind being rather high, there was a gentle swinging about the centre, that resembled the motion of a vessel in rough water, but it was not so great as to cause any inconvenience to passengers. Judgin . ...; from the immense crowds of people that were continually passing to and fro, its strength and powers of tension will never again be subjected to a greater strain, at least by foot passengers. The police were in attendance, to preserve order. PUBLICATIONS, THE ENGLISH GENTLEMAN.

Address, R oss and Sons, 119 and 120, Bishopsgate-street. " Whitehall, April 29, 1845. " Sir R. Peel presents his compliments to Sir C. E Smith, and in reply to his note of yesterday, begs to decline receiving the parties referred to by Sir Culling Eardley Smith, who wish for an interview with Sir Robert Peel on the subject of the endowment of Maynooth. " That subject has undergone the consideration of the House of Commons during ten nights of debate, and Sir R. Peel feels it to be wholly out of his power, consistently with the proper discharge of the official duties he has to perform, to discuss in personal con ference out of Parliament the merits of measures of general public, not especially affecting particular or local interests."—Upon that letter he would make no comment, for it would be for the meeting to deal with it as it thought fit.—(Hear, hear.) If, however, as was the case, Sir It. Peel received a deputation on the subject when the measure was in its infancy, a fortiori, he ought to receive one now, when it was more advanced and when the public mind was more opposed to it than ever. In consequence of the letter which he had read, the Committee had on that morning come to the following resolution :—" Resolved—That it is matter of the deepest regret and surprise that Sir It. Peel has not deemed it con sistent with his public duty to receive a deputation of gentlemen who would have been able to prove to him the fact that the whole of the country, as well as the metropolis, are most decidedly against the endowment of Maynooth ; and that this resolution be respectfully transmitted to Sir It. Peel." The CIitIRWAN having read the resolution, concluded by ex pressing his desire to hear the opinions of the deputations from the various parts of the country. The Rev. Messrs. Robertson and Griffiths, of Edinburgh, and Dr. Cullen, of Leith, severally addressed the meeting, and stated that the most perfect unanimity of opinion existed amongst all the denominations of Protestants in Edinburgh and Leith, as regarded the propriety of opposing the grant to Maynooth. Archdeacon IdacEE,l of Dublin, said that Churchmen and Die. senters were all opposed to the grant in Ireland. The Rev. H. STOWELL, from Manchester, felt that they ought to thank God for the unanimity which prevailed amongst them. Sir Robert Peel thought Protestantism was a negation, but he would find that it was a stet n affirmative—(Cheers)--and he would find at the next general election how much opposed the English people were to concessions to Popery. if all Protestants did not belong to the same corps, it was quite clear, from their unanimity on this point, that they fought in the same army, and that the same glorious banner waved over their heads, having on the one side," The Gospel of Christ," and on the other, "No peace with Anti-Christ."—(Loud cheers.) There was a large party in Manchester devoted to Mammon, and they praised Sir Robert Peel for his commercial policy, although they admitted that he had deceived them in religious matters, but for his part he would prefer a man of humble mind and principled heart to a man, however mighty his mind was, if he was a man without principle. He was happy to inform the meeting that a memorial was in course of sig nature at Manchester, which was addressed to the Queen, and which already contained 20,000 signatures, playing her Majesty to dis. solve Parliament, and try the feeling of the country on the question before she put her hand and seal to the measure for endowing Maynooth, a Bill which would virtually destroy the right of the House of Brunswick to the Throne, and would virtually open the door for the representative of the House of Stuart, if it had a re. presentative living.—(Loud cheers.) The Rev. Dr. HAGLEY said he came for the purpose of lending his aid to oppose the grant, and he was not desirous, in doing so, to wound the feelings of any class of persons. Mr. BAINES, formerly M.P. far Leeds, next addressed the meet. ing. He said he recently had the pleasure of presiding at a meeting held in Leeds to consider this question. It was so numerous a meeting that its numbers were only restrained by the size of the largest building which they could command in Leeds.—(Cheers.) At the meeting to which lie alluded a petition was adopted, pray ing Parliament not to agree to the measure, and out of an adult male population of 25,000 in Leeds, the petition was signed by no less than 16,000 persons. The Rev. Mr. NEW/THAD also urged on the meeting the pro. pries , of expressing an unanimous and decided opposition to the proposed measure. The Rev. Dr. Masses, of Manchester, corroborated the state ments of the other speakers as to the feelings against Maynooth. In Manchester there was a strong and decided opposition to it. The Rev. Mr. BROWN said that he appeared at that meeting as the representative of seventeen congregations of the Free Church of Scotland at Aberdeen, and he could bear his testimony to the very strong feeling of opposition which was entertained in Aberdeen to the pernicious, faithless, and iniquitous proposition of Sir Robert Peel to endow Popery in this country.—(Loud cheers.) The Rev, Dr. MARSH, of Leamington, said that he saw in the meeting before him no Protestant or Dissenter, but a tessellated pavement of Protestant heads, and he was confident that every one of those heads presided over a true Protestant heart. As a true Briton he was a lover of civil liberty ; and as a Christian he was a lover of religious liberty, and he attended at that meeting to maintain those principles. What was Protestantism ? It was the religion which Jesus Christ propagated on earth. Did Protestantism want visibility ? The meeting which he saw around him afforded the best and most perfect answer to that question 7 (Cheers.) Did Protestantism want antiquity ? What were the Patriarchs? They were Protestants.—(Cheers.) What were the Apostles? They were Protestants. What were the Pro. phets ? They were Protestants ; they all protested against error. —(Cheers.) They had this at their side—visibility and antiquity. —(Cheers.) He should have brought his daughter, who accom panied him, to that meeting, if ladies were allowed to be present.— (Hear.) And he only regretted that they were not. The Rev. Gentleman concluded with a lengthened prayer to the God of peace and charity to bless their exertions. The Rev. Mr. Bickersteth, of Watton, Mr. S. C. Hall, of New castle-upon-Tyne, Mr. Ralph Wilson, of Newcastle, the Rev. Dr. Raffles, as a Protestant Dissenter from Liverpool, Mr. Rice Steevens, from Newport, in Wales, representing the Dissenters of various denominations in that town, and the Rev. Mr. Steevens, of Swansea, stated the co-operation of their constituents to oppose the grant. Mr. Jones, cf Merthyr Tydvil, and Mr. Fowices, a magistrate of Montgomeryshire, spoke to the same effect ; after which the meet ing (at three o'clock) adjourned to six o'clock in the evening. The evening sitting was resumed at six o'clock, when Sir C. E. Smith took the chair. Prayers having been read by the Rev. C. Prest, and some routine business disposed of, The CHAIRMAN asked whether any Dissenters from Leicester were present ? The Rev. Mr. MENsore, of Leicester, said that there was no de putation from Leicester, but he held in his hand a letter from the Dissenters of that place, expressing the reasons why they did not deem it right to join the Conference ; and this letter he would beg to read. negative vn. the e n p t a l to a f n Gm's t h e iee t proposition, ng,t h b o e s in • e withd h a a t s g s e u n c b e h r l a a l urpose of the as em y, letter, with its reasons, was forei g n to the p e g v e c r On ni t e e n t d which was to hear the sen timents of deputations from various favourableparts to the object of the Conference. After of the country some discussion, The CHAIRMAN d e cided it to be the sense of the meeting that the letter was inadmissible, and that as there was no deputation from Leicester, they would proceed to the next name on his list— Birmingham. The Rev. Mr. ROBERTS, Dissenting minister, of Birmingham, while the religious bodies whom, in the unavoidable saidabs that, absence of the Rev. Angell James, he represented, were to the full anxious to preserve and assist the civil and religious liberties of their Roman Catholic brethren, their attachment to the great principles of the Reformation united them, whatever their minor differences amongst themselves, in strenuous opposition to a measure which tended to overthrow the Reformatio n an d t h e P rotestant throne of these realins.—(Hear, hear.) This feeling alike per oplei t r i s c o a n l s an u d . i a o s u s e s m opinions,bl ed o v ß a i d , m e d i n gt ha, p r o n s e e e d t i o n f g m o e f n 6 o f o a o ll o p and the smaller meetings of the vari • ous congregations which had taken place there. The meeting was afterwards briefly addressed by numerous deputies from different parts of the country, when Dr. Massr moved a resolution to the effect that the deputa tions should wait upon the carious members for their cities, boroughs, and counties, and represent the state of public feeling on the subject to them, and call upon them to oppose the further progress of the measure. The resolution was then carried unanimously. Mr. E. BAINEIi, jun., of Leeds, next moved a resolution con demnatory of the conduct of Sir Robert Peel in refusing to receive the deputations on this subject. The resolution was carried unanimously. The Rev. Micnosisima., of the Scottish Free Church, then moved a resolution pledging the conference itself to contribute, and to uit iN best exertions, each deputation in its own locality, to A public meeting of the inhabitants of the City of London was held on Wednesday, in the Great Hall in Crosby-square, for the purpose of raising subscriptions in aid of the erection of a church for the seamen of the port of London, in the new street about to be made in the neighbourhood of the London and St. Katha rine Docks. There were present the Earl of Cadogan, Lord Rad stock, R.N., Colonel Wyndham, M.P., Lord Bishop of London, Captain Elliott, Mr. Somes, M.P., J. Labouchere, Esq., Admiral Bowles, H. Lambton, Esq., M.P., Sir Augustus Clifford, Admiral Young, Hon. Captain W. Waldegrave, C 8., Sir E. Parry, R.N., Sir John Franklin, R N., Captain Saurin, R.N., Rev. Mr. Smith, Captain Gambier, R.N., and many ether naval officers. The meeting was sot very numerous, owing, in some degree, as Lord Radstock said, to the great Wolff to be seen at Exeter Hall ; those present, ho sever, were chiefly members of the higher classes. The Earl of Haddington presided. Letters were read from several reverend gentlemen, and frost the lour Members for the City, containing excuses for their non attendance. The Earl of HADDINGTON, the chairman, said, whatever faults might be attributed to the people of the present day, a deadness of feeling to religiously charitable purposes was not among there.— (Hear, hear.) About twenty years ago a ship had been devoted by the Admiralty to Divine service as a floating chapel for sea. men. That ship was now completely worn out, and the present meeting was. for the purpose of raising subscriptions for the erec tion of a church for seamen resident for the time being in the port of London. The church was intended to be in connexion with the Sailors• Home.-- (Hear.) The Bishop of LONDON moved the first resolution, to the effect that the great interest the country had in its commercial marine, made the object before them, as it was intended to promote thowel. fare of the supporters of that marine, one of national importance. He said he thought that in time the sailors might, after receiving proper religious instruction, become missionaries to the most distant parts of the world, wherever the spirit of commercial enterprise might carry them. The seamen of the commercial marine of the country had until the last few years been considered as hardly having souls to be saved.—(Hear, hear.) A church was now, how. ever, found necessary for the sailors resorting to the port of Lon. don, and for the erection of which a considerable outlay would be required ; it was not a considerable outlay, however, in this great metropolis, whose merchants were kings and princes, and which owed its prosperity to the skill and bravery of the very men for whom that church was to be erected.—(Hear, hear.) In the hope that this would not be the only one, but would be the commence ment of the erection of churches in all the ports of the kingdom, be had ventured to move the first resolution.—(Cheers.) Mr. Ro➢INBON, chairman of Lloyd's, seconded the resolution, and it was adopted unanimously. _ . JOHN ABEL SMITH, Esq., M.P., moved the second resolution, and in doing so he highly eulogiscsl the good feeling of the Bishop of London in regard to his great and unceasing endeavours to pro. mote the spiritual welfare of the people of the metropolis. Sir EDWARD PARRY seconded the resolution, which was as fol. lows :—" That the meeting learned with great satisfaction that measures had been taken to secure a site for the erection of the church in the proposed new street in the neighbourhood of St. Katharine and London Docks."—Carried unanimously. JOHN LABOUCIIEUL, Esq., moved the next resolution. He said he felt confident that those who had contributed so liberally to the erection of the Sailors' Home would be equally liberal its their contributions towards the erection of a church for the use of those for whom the Sailors' Home was erected. Mr. YOUNG seconded the resolution, which recommended a sub. scription being raised for the erection of the church, ant4lso that all parties concerned in the commerce and shipping trade of the country give their aid in the cause. The following subscriptions were then announced : —Queen Dowager, 501. ; Bishop of London, 301.; Earl of Haddington, ;50/. ; Mr. Seines, M.P., 100/. ; Henry Hope, Esq., M.P., lOUI. ; Baring Brothers, 100 guineas; Lord Cholmondeley, 501.; Rear- Admiral Sykes, 501.; Hon. Capt. W. Waldegfave, C. 13., 251.; J. Labouchere, Esq., 501. ; Earl of Cadogan, 50/. ; Admiral Bowles, 1201. ; and many more to a very large amount. HEDWOIII II LAM BTON, Esq., MP., moved the appointment of a Committee, and Sir Jouti FRANKLIN having seconded the resolu tion, it was adopted unanimously. WILLIAM COTTON, Esq., moved, and the Earl of CADMAN seconded, the appointment of John Labouchere, Esq., to the office of Treasurer. Admiral Lord RADSTOCK then moved, and Captain ELLIOTT. R.N., seconded a vote of thanks to the Earl of Haddington and to the Bishop of London for their presence, and the Noble Lord and the Right Reverend Prelate having respectively returned thanks. the meeting broke up. ECCLESIASTICAL COMMIS SIONERS' PROPERTY. The following resolutions respecting the leasehold property be longing to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners for England, passed at a meeting held 15th April 1845, were issued on Wednesday by order of the House of Lords 1. That no lease for lives be renewed by the addition of a new life, nor any lease whatever upon consideration of a fine. 2. That AO estate which is subject to a lease when it becomes vested in the Commissioners, shall at any time be sold to any other than the person beneficially interested under the existing lease, until he shall have had the option of becoming the purchaser. 3. That every estate, already and hereafter vested in the Corn. missioners, shall at the first convenient opportunity be surveyed, and a full report made of its value, and of its circumstances with reference to the relative advantage of retaining or parting with it. 4. That the Commissioners, having taken such report into consideration, shall, unless they find special reasons for not parting with the property, hold themselves prepared to entertain an °lifer for the purchase of the reversion from the person beneficially inte rested in the lease. That in all cases of the Commissioners declining to sell, an entry shall be made upon their minutes of the special reasons for their so declining. 6. That the price of the reversion shall be, as a general rule, the amount of difference between the value of the whole fee, calcu lated as if the estate were actually in possession, and the value of the leasehold interest. 7. That whether the Commissioners for any special reasons de cline to sell, or the lessee decline to purchase the reversion, the Commissioners shall hold themselves prepared, in any case, to pur chase the leasehold interest at its market price, if the lessee be willing to sell the sane. 8. That in any case in which the lessee shall have declined either to purchase the reversion, or to sell his leasehold interest, th . Commissioners shall consider themselves free from any restraint re specting the sale or letting of the property. 9. That tithes, and lands or ot her hereditaments allotted or signed in lieu of tithes, vested in the Commissioners, shall not in any case be sold, until due c onsideration shall have been had of the wants and circumstances of the places in which such tithes arise or have heretofore arisen.

An official do , !ument from the Admiralty, relating to the mysterious disappearance of a boat's crew belonging to the above vessel, has been received at Lloyd's. "It appears that the schooner sailed from Gibraltar for the northern coast of Brazil, in search of guano, last year, and on Thursday, the rith of December last, the schooner lying off the islani of Fernando de Monorka, William Parriter, the captain's clerk, Robert Cannon, the carpen ter, and George Elliott and John Gibbons, seamen be , longing to the vessel, left in one of the boats for tha purpose of going ashore.
