Several advertisements having of late appeared, headed t " DIRECT NORTHERN RAILWAY," and having attached thereto the names of Sir John Rennie, Mr. Gravatt, Major Amsinc, 1 and others, In which it is asssrted—that by the Direct Northern ; Line the distance f orn London to York will be twenty miles less r than by the line proposed by this Company—that the scheme to connect London with York originated with, and was first projected by, Sir John Rennie and Company—and that upwards of seventy „miles of their scheme has been appropriated by the London and York Company—the Committee of Direction feel ealled upon, in jug mice to themselves, and the shareholders, to give these assertions the most direct and unqualified contradiction. To the first they reply—that the difference In distance between the projee ted lines from London to York, instead of being twenty miles, 'is not .more than two miles and a half. Sir John Rennie's, by his owe account being ISO miles in length—that of the London and York being in reality upon the line, as finally laid down, 1851 miles, Wh( that this difference of live and a half miles can be realised by Sir J dm Rennie's line is yet to be proved, and, If realised, whe. ther such a difference would be compensated for by the London and York line having its course through the towns of Hitch's), Huntingdon, Peterborough, Grantham, Newark, Tuxford, Retford, Bawtry, and Doncaster, not one of which is approached by Sir John Rennie's line, the pub tie will be able to determine. To the second and th:rd allegations the Committee of Direction of the London and York Company reply, that while Sir John Rem. nie and Co. state that their surveys were commenced In October, 1843, and their prospectus published in April last, the project for •a new railway between London' and York was formed by Mr. Gibbs in 15313, and in that year carried into Parliament. That in 1840 Mr. -Gibbs again brought his scheme L Wore the Parliamentary Commis . *sioners, and it Is detailed by them in their report of 1841. That such scheme was never abandoned b . , him, but in February of the present year the details of the London' and York Railway, as now, with modifications adopted, were expla,fined by him to Mr. Beckett Denison, M,P , who suggested several A Iterations, and Mr. Francis iowatt, the Vice. Chairman, and arrant ements were made for per fecting the plan by levels and surveys, w hich were completed in the 1. loath of March following, and on tae 113th of April the project w es announced by advertisement In the Vimee, under the name of tti, ''" Great Northern Railway," before any advertisement of Ear Jot irr Rennie had appeared : and the Committee of Direction dis tinctly affirm that the course over the first seventy miles from Longdo n was adopted on actual surveil made by Mr. Gibbs, and not suggested to them by any other parties t and they beg further to observe . , it is only now within these few days, that after the Lon. don and York Company has been be,!ore the public for a period of five montihs, after its whole capital of five millions has been sub scribed, ar, ct its shares has attained a high premium 117 the market, that Sir Jo,bn Rennie and Company - have come forward with what is intended .to be a counter-project, And with the min-statements here disposed' of.

Therd substance obtained by pressure from the Crude Cocoa-Nut 011, is an essential ingredient in the Rs- TENT COMPOSITE CANDLES; and, as EDWARD PRICE and CO., hold the Patents for this process, and grant no licenses under them, it follows, either, that the imitation Composite Candles are entirely different from the Patent ones, or, that the imitators are Intl"inging the Patents : the first Is generally the case, but to protect themselves against the possibility of the other, EDWARD PRICE and CO. hereby engages to pay a reward of Fifty Pounds to any workman or other person, who may give such infonnatlim respecting parties pressing Cocoa-Nut 011. as shall lead to their conviction. The name of the informant will be kept strictly secret, and he need not take is prominent part in the proceedings, as all that E.

This advertisement is being pub lished in every newspaper of any circulation in the United Kingdom.

ENLISTMENT OF PAUPER CHILDREN. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. R ESPECT ED FM EN D,—Shortly after the publica tion of my first letter on the "Enlistment of Pauper Children," a conversation was reported in the Morn ing Chronicle, as having taken place in a meeting of the directors and guardians of the parish of Maryle bone on that subject, and to have resulted in an order that inquiry should be made whether their children had been enlisted for life, or for a term of years. I shall not now stop to remark on the conduct of " guardians" who could thus promote the " un limited enlistment" of their children, without first making themselves acquainted with the duration of 'he engagement into which, by solemn oath, the boys were about to enter ; but I wish to invite attention to the following petition, presented to the house of Lords by the Marquis of Normanby, relating to one of these Marylebone cases. Two weeks previously to its presentation it was read to the directors and guar dians, in order to give them the fullest opportunity of denying any of its allegations. John Jackson called on me again yesterday, hav ing made a fourth journey to Chatham barracks (where his son still remains) ; he repeats his own and his wife's urgent request that every means may be used to secure the restoration of the boy to his family.—l am, &c., respectfully, REDERIC WHEELER. Rochester, 28th of 9th month, 1844. To the Right lionourable the Lords Spiritual and Temporal of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in Parliament assembled ; The petition of the undersigned Louisa Jackson and John Jackson, the mother and step-father of Frederick Jackson, a boy now in the depot of the 31st Regiment of Foot, in Chatham barracks, Humbly showeth,— That your petitioners, being in very straitened cir cumstances, the aforesaid Frederick Jackson, their son, was permitted by the parochial authorities of St. Alarylebone, after due inquiry into the case, to re main an inmate of their workhouse, and was allowed the privilege of ,visiting your petitioners at certain times. That the said youth was, on or about the 16th of December last, enlisted, with six other lads, and sworn to unlimited service of the Queen as a soldier in the 31st Regiment of Foot, without the knowledge or consent of the petitioners, who consider themselves greatly aggrieved thereby; and that the youth was at that time only thirteen years and about eleven days old, as will appear from the memoranda attached to this petition. That during several weeks after the day of enlist ment the customary visits of the mother to the work house, or of the child to his parents, were interrupted by her confinement and subsequent illness, the father being, at the same time, employed in a brewery, where his services were required every day of the week. That on the earliest suitable opportunity the nurse was sent to the workhouse to ask permission for the lad to come home for a few hours, which application was refused, without any explanation of what had occurred ; and that on several subsequent Sundays this application was repeated, both verbally and by letter, with s similar result. That the mother, being at length partially restored to health, applied in person to be allowed to see her boy, and then discovered, to her great astonishment and distress, that he had been for several weeks a soldier in Chatham barracks I That the mother then, by letter, addressed to Major Spence, and the father, by a journey to Chat ham, endeavoured to obtain the restoration of the lad to his family, but without success. On the contrary, that officer has intimated, in his letter addressed to the Secretary of the Marylebone Guardians, bearing date 15th of March, that " the enlistment is conclu sive," and that a sum of twenty pounds will be re quired to purchase his discharge. That your petitioners are in very humble circum stances, and have three other children dependent on them for support, and that the parochial authorities of St. Marylebone have declined to render them the redress they now seek. Your petitioners, therefore, implore your Lord ships to interpose on behalf of an injured family, and to take such measures as may be best calculated to effect the restoration of this child to his anxious parents.—Signed, April 12, 1844.

On one of these days of public audience a person of the middle class came be-. fore him, accused his own son of having failed towards him in an essential point of duty, and begged him to visit the culprit with all the vengeance and severity of the law. Confucius listened quietly to all that the afflicted father had to say to him, and promised to examine his complaint at leisure, and to do him justice by punish ing his son severely, if he was found to deserve it. " However," added he, in conclusion, "as it may be that some part of the fault is yours, and that you yourself are blameable for not having instructed him in his duties, go to prison till I call you to judgment. I shall arrest your son, and make a prisoner of him as well as yourself. Do not be uneasy about the sentence I shall pass; it will be all in your favour." The accuser and the accused were three entire months in prison without the judge giving the least symptom of his thinking about them. This, how ever, was far from being the case, and ho was secretly as much interested about their dispute as if it had personally interested him. After the three months had expired, he summoned there both before him. "Of what crime," asked he of the father, " has your son been guilty towards you ?" " Of none," replied the old man. " Of what, then, do you complain r " Of a trifle, of nothing," answered the father. "I was angry when I came to complain of him, and I knew not what I was doing or what I was saying. I implore you very humbly to take no more notice of what I then said against my son." " I expected as much," said Confucius, good-na turedly, "and it was to leave your passion the time to exhale that I detained you three months in prison ; return home with your son, and live in peace. You, young man, never forget that filial piety is the first obligation which nature imposes on man. And you, my good man, instruct your son in his duties; this is what you engaged to do in giving him existence."— From the "Memoirs of the Life of Confucius," in Captain Piddind s Chinese Olio and Tea Talk, No. 22. THIS SOUTH WALES RAILWAY.—WO stated last week that a deputation from the Severn Navigation Commission, consisting of Mr. Pakington, M.P., Mr. Spooner, M.P., Mr. J. W. Lea, Mr. Leader Williams, and Mr. Waters, had an interview with the Earl of Dal housie, at the office of the Board of Trade. We are now enabled to state that the object the deputation had in view was the laying before the Noble Earl the objections which the Severn Commission had to the proposed South Wales Railway, the chief of which referred to the contemplated erection of a bridge over the Severn, for the purposes of the railway, and thereby impeding the navigation. On this subject, we understand that re presentations have already been made to the Great Western Company from Monmouthshire, and received with the greatest attention and consideration. Indeed, the effect produced by the statements aid arguments against their projected plan was sufficiently strong to induce them to promise that the following surreys should be made by Mr. Brunel immediately. First, to ascer tain whether some point may not be selected on the River Severn, between Gloucester and Purton, for the construction of a bridge of such a character as not to impede the navigation in the most remote degree—and, from the passage thus effected, to strike through the heart of the Forest of Dean to Monmouth, Usk, and Newport. Secondly, in the event of this scheme proving impracticable, then to survey a line from Gloucester through the Forest to Monmouth—and also a line by Ross to Monmouth—and if these two lines should both be found incompatible with the maintenance of a rapid and profitable communication with Ireland, then, thirdly, to adhere to the line already proposed, via Chepstow, upon the assurance that everything had been done which could in fairness and good faith bo expected to further the wishes and views advocated in this part of the coun try.— Worcestershire Chronicle.

DrInLIN, OCT. 2.—On Friday last an address from the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster, composed of the tTni tarian clergy who had seceded from the Presbyterian Synod of Ulster (now. designated the Irish General As sembly), was pr esen t e d t o Lord Ileytesbury by a depu tation, consisting of the Rev. Dr. Montgomery, Rev. Fletcher Blakely, Rev. W. B. Minniss, and Mr. K. G. Smith. I subjoin the address, with the important and very significant reply of his Excellency:— " To his Excellency baron Ileytesbury, Lord Lieutenant- General and General Governor of Ireland. " May it please your Excellency,—We have the ho nour to approach you, on behalf of the Ministers and Elders of the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster, specially as sembled, to offer our most respectful congratulations on your Excellency's appointment to the chief government of Ireland. " Our satisfaction in making this customary homage to the representative of the most beloved Sovereign who ever swayed the sceptre of these realms, is greatly en hancii d by the consideration that you occupy your pre sent exalted position in consequence of tho distinguished ability and prudence so long displayed by your Excel lency in other lands, in discharging the delicate and im ports int duties of high offices connected with the honour and interest of the British empire. " We should feel ourselves guilty of deep ingratitude, did Ire not also declare that wo approach your Excel leneAwith still augmented satisfaction, as a nobleman en joying, the confidence of her Majesty's present Ministers, to whom all the Nonconformists of these countries are so largely indebted for the late extension of the principles of justice and toleration, in passing tho Dissenters' Chapels Bill, and to whom we ourselves are under special obligations for the peace and security in which we now enjoy those most valued properties, transmitted to us by our st.ncestors, or created by ourselves, for the promo- tion of what we humbly believe to bo pure and un defil religion.' . . . •` As lovers of our native land, and all its inhabitants, we r ojoico to believe that your Excellency brings to the ardu ells task of governing a population of mixed races and , :reeds, the invaluable qualifications of sound consti tutiocal information, great political wisdom, an earnest desit.e to administer existing laws with scrupulous im partiality, and a full determination to recommend such cone iliatory changes and improvements as may tend at once to secure the peace and prosperity of Ireland, and to confirm tho iitegrity and power of the United Kingdom. ":11.'he people of this country are proverbially ' fond of justyre,' and pre-eminently sensible of kindness—both of which your Excellency's established reputation assures us they shall abundantly experience at your hands ; so that, under the blessing of Divin e Providence, your Ex cellency may enjoy the delight of beholding confidence superseding distrust, affection displacing alienation, and the chaos of religious and political strife settling into the organised forms of social harmony and national prosperity. "t'or ourselves, we unhesitatingly rely upon the con tinuance, by your Excellency, of that equitable and impartial attention to our civil rights, as a church, which we have uniformly experienced from your Excellency s predecessors in the chief Government of this country; and, on our own part, we pledge ourselves to the conti nued use of our best exertions in promoting loyalty to our most gracious Sovereign, obedience to the laws, and the extension of mutual forbearance and good-wili amongst all classes of our fellow-subjects. "Signed at Belfast, this 24th day of September, 1844, on behalf the ministers and people of the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster. " W. B. MINNISS, Moderator. " FLETCHER BLAKELY, Clerk." • To the foregoing, his Excellency made the following reply : ' To the Ministers and Elders of the Remonstrant Synod of Ulster. " Gentlemen,—l hare received with much satisfaction the address with which you hare honoured me, on my assuming the Government of this country. " The flattering expressions it contains, with respect to my services in foreign countries, demand my warmest acknowledgments ; and I am no less bound to state my conviction, that her Majesty's Ministers will derive the highest gratification from the assurance you convey to me, that the Nonconformists of these countries con siaer themselves largely indebted to them for the late extension of the principles of justice and toleration, in passing the Dissenters' Chapels Bill, and for the peace and security in which they now enjoy those most valued properties, transmitted to them by their ancestors, or created by themselves.' " As regards myself, Gentlemen, you may be assured it is my earnest desire 'to administer existing laws with scrupulous impartiality, and with a full intention to re commend such conciliatory changes and improvements as may tend at once to secure the peace and prosperity of Ireland. and to confirm the power and integrity of the United Kingdom. _ _ " Happy, indeed, shall I be at the close of my admi nistration to find, as you are pleased to predict, confi dence superseding distrust, affection displacing aliena tion, and the confusion of religious and political strife settling into social harmony and national prosperity.' "Your patriotism, Gentlemen, has always been un doubted ; but I hail with gratitude the pledge you now offer, of your continued determination to contribute, by every means in your power, to promote ' loyalty to our most gracious Sovereign, obedience to the laws, and the extension of mutual forbearance and good-will amongst all classes of your fellow-subjects.' "lIETTESBURY." THE FATAL EXPLOSION AT THE HAS WELL COLLIERY. The adjourned inquest on the bodies of the sufferers was resumed on Wednesday. The whole day was oc cupied in taking the evidence of Robert Thompson, the master wasteman of the pit, whose evidence corres ponded with that given on the previous day. Ho said— The ventilation of the mine could not have been im proved, neither, in his opinion, could anything more have been done to prevent accident. And Thomas Emerson Foster, the viewer of the colliery, having given similar testimony, he said—" I have no objection to any other viewer in the coal trade. Am not aware that Mr. Mathias Dunn was ever in any way connected with this pit." Mr. Marshall said he might recal to the notice of the Coroner that he had stated the owners had no objection to any ono the Coroner and jury might appoint. Mr. Foster resumed—My reason for objecting to Mr. Dunn is an apprehension—not from a private pique he has to me—he might do an injury to the owners. Thinks Mr. Dunn could do me no injury by examining the pit, as proposed, if he told the truth. Mr. Dunn has been a ♦iewer. He is a practical ♦iewer. If I might observe, ho has unfortunately had too many serious accidents in the mines under his charge. Mr. Roberts said, " a burnt child dreads the fire," on which the Coroner remarked that he should allow of no such observations. Mr. Roberts repeated the expression, and persisted in making other improper remarks, on which the Coroner ordered him out of court, but, on promising to conduct himself properly, ho was allowed to continue the cross-examination. Mr. Foster—Thinks it would be more satisfactory to the living, and the friends of the dead, if persons chosen by themselves, without reference to any pique of mine, were allowed to examine every part of the pit. It is in the hands of the coroner and jury whether they think it necessary for Mr. Mathias Dunn to examine the pit or not. If they say he should, I have no objection. Should the Government determine to appoint inspectors of mines as of factories, I should have no objection myself, but I do not consider it desirable. By Mr. Marshall—Am not of opinion that the in- spectors appointed by Government could have done any thing to secure the safety of this mine that I hare not done. Have no reason to believe that there was any neglect on the part of Williamson, the deputy, who was killed, to cause this explosion ; on the contrary, I be lieve him to have been a very careful man. At the conclusion of this evidence the room was cleared, and the jury having consulted together, agreed to ad journ till :Wednesday, next week ; and it was deter mined that the coroner should request Mr. Nicholas Wood and Mr. George Hunter to examine the mine in the interval, and report to the jury at their next meeting. Mr. Roberts applied for Mr. Mathias Dunn to be ap pointed, but the jury did not consider it necessary to in clude him. Mr. Roberts put it to the coroner several times, who at last gave a positive refusal ; he intimated at the same time that Mr. Dunn might, if he thought prover, accompany the gentlemen appointed by the jury. 'I he inquest was then adjourned. ET:ICTION or TENANTS.—Yesterday, Mr. John Carrig, of Ennis, Sub-Sheriff, accompanied by Colonel Wyndham's agent, Mr. Thomas Crow, proceeded to the lands of Cooldona, Toureen, and Ahanna, with a large party of Infantry and Dragoons from this garrison, and ejected several of the tenants. This day the same party went out to eject the remainder. Colonel Wyndham, we understand, was offered his rents from these p?or people, but would not accept of them, his object being to do away with small holdings, and not let . less to any than from twelve to fifteen acres.—Limer i ck Reporter of Tuesday.

This new copper money, Just ccin'd at the Mint, Is something which furnishes many a hint. When we look at a coin so remarkably small, We're rather surpris'd it was issued at all; But when we examine the facts of the case, We see how the new introduction took place. No doubt such a thing was judiciously done, To accommodate dealers with MOSF.S and SON. You must kn. , / that vast thousands repair, ev'ry day, To purchase our clothes in such boundless display. And this is no wonder. For all will confess That we rival the kingdom in cheapness of dress. To the very " last farthing" our profits were brought, And if •• that" were deducted, why we should have nought, But since the" half.farthing" is such a'• good hit," E MOSES and SON will the difference split. And the public shall purchase of MOSES and SON, Choice articles lower than ever they've done. As soon as we saw the small coin from the Mint, We were not at all backward in taking the hint. But wishing, at all tines (as far as we can), to help in promoting a Government plan. We resolv'd, while wo furnish'd with beautiful dress, To sell at the rate of a profit " still less;" And thus by " Half-Farthings" much good will be done To the numberless dealers of MOSES and SON.

Vickers, 28, llolywell-street, Strand. N.B. cation, ~c gHIPWANCii O vim witiosoi% CAiSTLE On Tuesday, the Windsor Castle, an iron steamer, plying between Edinburgh and Dun .lee, left the latter town at the same hour with her Majesty's yacht, having about two hundred and fifty passengers, the greater part of whom had come froni Edinburgh with the steamer that morning, in order to witness the embarkation of the Queen. The Windsor Castle is a small steamer, originally built for the river naviga tion of the Clyde ; and the number of passengers that was on board completely crowded her deck. She sailed repeatedly round the royal yacht previous to starting. When the royal squadron cleared the es tuary of the Tay, they stood out to sea, while the Windsor Castle, which was, as might be expected, soon left behind, stood right across the Bay of St. Andrew's, for the Frith of Forth. For some time all went well ; the night was fine, and the weather calm, the wind blowing gently from the north-west ; and in the centre of St. Andrew's Bay, which is generally considered the roughest part of the navigation, on the east coast of Scotland, the sea was so smooth, that a number of the passengers commenced dancing on deck. This continued for some time, till the dancers, wearied with their exercise, desisted. The royal squadron being now nearly out of sight, most of them went below. Matters went on in this quiet manner till about half-past seven o'clock at night, when a dark object was seen looming directly in front, and not twenty yards distant from the vessel ; this was at once ascer tained to be the Can Rock Beacon, a mark of warning to point out a dangerous ledge of rocks running from the land a considerable distance out to sea, and the extreme point of which is marked by this beacon. Instantly the word was passed to stop the engine, and then to back it, and as instantly the word was obeyed, but far too late for safety, the vessel surged onwards and struck the beacon on her larboard bow, when she reeled back and heeled on her beams as if stunned by the b!ow. Then began a scene of the deepest agony and de spair. For a minute, indeed, all was hushed in silent consternation, and we believe the general feeling was that all was over, and that she would go down in stantly. But as the vessel glided off inside the beacon, and still held on her course, the whole magnitude of the danger rose to the view of the passengers. From the darkness of the night no land was to be seen, and the minds of all on board ap peared to be made up to meet death in the course of an uncertain but very brief period. It would have been interesting for a spectator, could one have been found sufficiently abstracted from his own fate, to mark the various feelings manifested by his fellow passengers, varying as they did from the highest point of moral heroism to the extreme of pusilanimity. Several ladies, of whom there were many on board, behaved with the greatest fortitude; clustering to gether on the quarter-deck, they calmly appeared to await the fate that might betide them. But the great majority gathered amidships, uttered the most piercing shrieks; and one lady in particular, throwing herself on the deck, rolled from side to side in the intensity of her agony. Nor were the male sex more abundant in moral courage. Several gentlemen howled as fran tically as did the ladies, most of them grasped the pieces of wood that lay on the deck, in the hope that if the ship should sink, they might support themselves by these means. Two men in particular stripped themselves to the shirt, prepared to brave the last ex tremity by swimming. One cry was unanimously made to Captain Greig, the master of the steamer, to run her ashore. The Captain loudly assured the pas sengers that there was no danger—that she was per fectly tight ; at the same time he immediately gave orders to the helmsman to get as close to the fend as possible; and in a short time the land, which was only about three-quarters of a mile distant, though from the darkness of the night it could not before be seen, began to appear on the starboard bow. This and the loudly-repeated assurances of safety.on the part of the captain, appeared for a time to calm the majority of the passengers ; but others who had gone below forward, returned and assured their compa nions that the ship was fast filling, and in a few mo ments more this truth began to be frightfully appa rent, the ship was settling fast, and the water in the hold, surging from side to side of the vessel, caused her to threaten every moment to turn on her beam ends, which we believe was only prevented by the passengers, running to the one side as the vessel heeled over on the other. Still the vessel was gradually approaching the land, which was now close at hand, and did nut appear to be very inviting. The land is here low but rocky, with sharp ledges running diagonally out to sea, and to run upon these appeared to be cer tain destruction to the vessel. Still as the night was fine, there was every probability, that if she grounded at all, she would hold together till all the passengers could be landed. The running ashore, however, was still a matter of uncertainty, for it appeared, though this was not known to the majority of the passengers till afterwards, that the water was c miinF in fast, that there was great danger of the engine-fires being put out. Some moments of intone anxiety then passed ; the vessel was evidently settling ; her way was greatly slackened; and the lurchings were every moment more tremendous, when fortunately her keel at last touched the bottom between two of the ledges of rock of which we have spoken, and the steam was immediately let off. All danger was now felt to be passed, at least among those of the passengers whom tear had not altogether deprived of judgment; but still there was a general cry, especially among the women to be set on shore. This, however, was a work of considerable diffi culty. It turned out that the only boat on board— the only means that had been promised, in case of accident, to save the lives of about 250 people—was a small stern-boat, which, when now brought into action, was only capable of taking ashore six pas sengers at a time ! Fortunately, the calmness of the night, and the settled condition of the stranded ship, had by this time restored nearly all the passengers to their senses ; and when the boat was brought along side, the cry of "the ladies first ashore," was at once attended to. One man was, however, landed and dispatched to Crail, a fishing town about two miles to the south, for other boats ; and in the course of about an hour, three large fishing boats were alongside, and conveyed a great number of the passengers on shore. Still there were about fifty left on board ; who, after waiting for some time for the return of the boats, which was longer than was expected, resolved to reach the shore over the bows of the vessel, which was now left dry by the receding tide, so that, in one way or another, the whole of the passengers got safely to land in about an hour and a half after the vessel had struck, and about two miles from the scene of the collision. The vessel continued under way, after the shock, for about twenty minutes. Arrived on shore, the male passengers made their way, on foot, to Crail, where they were hospitably received by Mr. ilerson, the minister of the parish ; Mr. Webster, the parish schoolmaster ; Mr. Dickson, of the Golf Inn; and by every other inhabitant that could spare a bed for their accommodation. The ladies were mostly accommodated fur the night in the farm. houses near the place where they came ashore, parti cularly by Mr. Crombie, of Kilwinning, under whose house the vessel came ashore, Mr. Tod, of Balcombie, and Mr. Morton, of Craighead. We understand that the vessel went to pieces next morning. Two faults in this wretched business were very apparent. The first was, that no look-out had been kept at all. The Can Rock Beacon is familiar to every navigator of the Fife coast, and was passed in particular by this vessel twice every day. Nothing, therefore, but gross negligence could account for the itself, and running upon an object so conspicuous i n and marking rocks so dreaded by mariners. In fact, the Windsor Castle had no business inside the Can Rock at all. The next fault was in havinz no pro vision for saving life on board. The boat which was produced was unworthy of the name, and would inevitably have been swamped, had it been resorted to at sea. The loss of life from the want of boats has been so dreadful in former instances, that it is sur prising the public do not insist on steamers carrying something like a respectable amount of accommoda tion for passengers in the shape of boats ; and failing the public, it is surprising that Government do not interfere. It ought to be added, in conclusion, that after the accident the conduct of the captain, Mr. Greg, who is the son of the proprietor, was distinguished for coolness and activity.—Morning Post. THE GOVERNIIIINT MBDICAL BILL.--LITBRroot, WEDNESDAY EVENING.—A numerous meeting of the members of the medical and surgical professions in this town was held to-day, at two o'clock, in the Medical Institution, Mount Pleasant, for the purpose of taking i n t o c onsideration the Bill introduced into Parliament, at the close of the last session, by Sir James Graham," for the better regulation of medical practice throughout the United Kingdom." Dr. Jeffreys was unanimously toted to the chair. Amongst the speakers were the chairman, Dr. Freckleton, Sir Arnold Knight, Dr. Sutherland, Mr. Stubbs, and Mr. Beconor. Several re solutions were passed approving of the principle of the Bill, and regretting that no provision had been included in it to restrict irregular practice. A memorial to Go vernment, committeef und d u ponth appointede resolutions, t,O watchwas t ne progressalso a d o to, of the measure in the next session ofParliament. The meeting then separated. Tun ROYAL ALBEIT.—On the 26th of August, 1842, the hull of a first-rate man-of-war, of 120 guns, was laid down under the superintendence of Mr. Laing. The frame is now half completed, and it is expected will be finished by the end of the year. This noble vessel will be larger in dimensions than any other ship ever built in the world, and seven hundred tons more than the Trafalgar, at present the largest ship in the British navy. Sir George Cockburn and Admiral Sir William Gage inspected the building yesterday morning, and both gallant officers expressed in warm terms their admira tion of her appearance. This ship is being built on a new and improved system, and in a stronger and firmer manner than any other vessel which has been csonstri4cted. .~ ~_J .... _. 7 t ti L
