An interesting despatch from the Governor of Trinidad to the Duke of Buckingham has been for warded to the Society of Arts, recording some successful experiments made on board her Ma jesty's ship Gannet, with a fuel consisting of pitch from the Trinidad Lake, mixed in cer trin proportions with charcoal, ground, and then pressed into bricks. The fuel showed no sign whatever of adhesion to the bars, or of melting (defects previously noticed), and the quantity of clinker was not greater than may often be found in ordinary steam coal. IV ith 65 per cent. of coal and 35 per cent. of the artificial fuel, the results were fully equal to coal alone ; so that, as it can be delivered at half the price of coal, its use would effect considerable sav ing. The only unfavourable point is that, whilst the consumption of the mixed fuel showed 4.331 b, per indicated horse power per hour, the average of six different kinds of coal was only 3.611 b. The Secretary of the Society of Arts sub mitted the report to Dr. B. H. Paul, the consulting chemist, who devotes his attention chiefly to the economy of fuel, and ho suggests that the utility of the new fuel might be increased if the large amount of earthy material in the pitch could be sepa rated in the manufacture of the fuel. This earthy material, which leaves an incombustible ash, amounts to 25 per cent., according to analysis he has made of the Trinidad pitch, and it is to the presence of this material that he would ascribe the difference in the rate of consumption per indicated horse power of the prepared fuel as compared with coal, amounting to about lb. per indicated horse power per hour.—Mining Journal.

This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, tho average number of attendance of the destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the premises of this hospital are capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite funds to maintain them. Contributions are received by their bankers, Messrs. Brown, Hansom, and Co., Abchurch-lane ; also by Messrs. Coutts and Co.; Drummond and Co. ; Glyn and Co.; Herries and Co. ; Ransom and Co. ; Prescott, Grote, and Co.; Smith, Payne, and Co.; Barclay and Co. ; Deacon, and Co.; Nisbet and Go., Berner-street ; and at she Soopitol trove 10 WI 6. /2 &(nd///t,Zzzk - ~~~~ '~~a~ THE CHURCH ASSOCIATION AT, !MANCHESTER. • The Unirch Xesociatiou at its Confetti-fa o 9 tile-au - TA Congress, has been considering the question of o' hoods." Dr. Wm. Ogle, who introduced the matter, atih, Whose remarks were received with grei4 favour..tal4 he bad visited home of these institution s, ` fait corresponded with others, and, without exception, fonnd that they were not Open, and not straiglatfor l ward ; for any question he put to them was alwaie, evaded. If ho asked for the report it was out of print; or for the rules, he was told that the rules only applied to religious life. If he received letters from them they were signed " . Mother Superior," or "Sister Susan." There were many crooked points about them; and should bo condemned; but in the self-devotion of their indivi dual agents there was something for them to learn. None of these institutions or nursing associations would stand the test he Lad proposed. Ile was bound to ndmit that there was an eatnestuess and comprehensiveness in them, Lut ho would not say thoroughness, and in some respects they had much to learn from the way they were conduct() 1. Re had beard that there were matins, terses, and vespers to Jo braid in them, but as a common sense Christian and as an Englishman, ho did not consider that to mean a spirit of prayer. 11l they could get a good institution conducted in a proper and straightforward manner, and have rules in black and white, for nurses not sisters of mercy—for be believed they ought to call a spade a spade, and a nurse a nurse—he thought that a great work would be accomplished. The question of the position of the laity in the Church was also discussed, and the association seems to have been pretty unanimous in its opinion that the safety and welfare of the Church in the future depended upon the introduction of the lay element into her councils. The first subject kept before the meeting was that Ritua lism must be put down—the first object of the association. OCCLUSION. Nt,4 It is stated that the Master of the Mint - has recently discovered an entirely new property of metals. Haying occasion to minutely analyse one of those curious messengers from the skies termed meteorites, he noticed that in addition to certain common metallic substances it contained hid up or occluded among its particles the gaseous element hydrogen. Following up this observation, he soon found that the metals palladium, platinum, and iron, though well hammered and, in common language, perfectly compact, absorbed many times their volume of various gases in which they were placed. Not only were these gases not driven off when the pieces of metal were heated, but exposure to high temperatures greatly facilitated absorption. This seemed to indicate that the gas was not in a mere condition of condensation within the pores of the metal, but had passed into some solid state of combination, an assumption that was con. firmed on exposing palladium containing hydrogen for two, months in a tube from which the air had been pumped, not a trace of gas escaping from the metal into the vacuum during that period. That this property of occlusion is something tangible and powerful may be gathered from the statement that, under favourable circumstances, a piece of of metal can be made to take up several hundred—in one case nearly a thousand—times its bulk of a gas. To speak of the value of this discovery would be premature. Let it stand as a great fact of nature, the application of which to the wants of man and the incidents of every-day life, will follow in due time. Meanwhile we would honour its discoverer, Thomas Graham, Master of the Mint, and high priest of science. SHOCKING DEATH. The obituary announcements in several newspapers record the death " from the effects of an accident" of Mr. Walford Greatorex, a gentleman aged only 40 years, and one of the partners with his aged father, Mr. Jeremiah Greatorex, in the well-known Manchester warehouse firm of Bradbury, Greatorex, and Beale, ofAldermanbury. The circumstances of this gentleman's death, as detailed at a coroner's inquest held before Dr. Diplock, coroner for West Middlesex, ace very painful. Mr. Walford Greatorex was a married man without children. A few weeks since he left London for Scotland on a tour of relaxation, and while in the Highlands symptoms of an affection of the brain were observed by his friends, and under medical advice he was sent back to London. On reaching his home no improve. ment was perceptible, and it became necessary to place the unfortunate gentlemen under medical care in a private asylum at Sudbury, near Harrow. This was only a few days since, and on Friday last his father, who resides in Cleveland-square, and has attained the great age of 85 years, sent one of his man-servants down to Sudbury to inquire after his son's health. While the servant was engaged in listening to the attendant's report of his patient's condition, Mr. Walford Greatorex contrived to leave the house through the garden unobserved, and with out either coat or hat he immediately ran off across the fields in the direction of the London and North- Western Railway. His absence was immediately dis covered, and chase was made after the unfortunate gen tleman, who ran with great swiftness, and actually swam across the Grand Junction Canal in his efforts to escape capture. On reaching the railway he went on to the metals, and there stood with his arms upraised as if signal ling the driver of an approaching train (the Bletchley ballast-train). Being accustomed to receive instructions from platelayers occasionally,"and believing, from his appear ance at a distance, that Mr. Greatorex was a man of this class who wished to communicate something to him, the driver, without stopping the train, leant over his footplate and was in the act of listening for what he supposed would be instructions, when he observed the unfortunate man dis appear under the leading wheels of the engine, by which his body was literally cut to pieces. The parties in search came up directly afterwards, and the circumstances of the calamity were at once apparent. The jury, on a review of the above facts, returned a verdict of "Suicide while in a state of temporary insanity." THE EXPLOSION AT BARNSLEY. Correspondence from Barnsley, dated Thursday, says : "As was anticipated, another of the sufferers died to-day in the greatest agony. The name of the deceased was Harriet Ann Larkin, aged 13 years. From the first, owing to the frightful character of the injuries, she was not expected to survive. From inquiries made to-day, the following is the state of the injured persons : Mr. G. Norris, proprietor of the works, very much burnt on the head, bands, arms, and back ; not expected to sur vive lorg. George Bywater (foreman), burnt all over, back broken ; in a dying state, not expected to live the day out. Richard Evans, dreadfully burnt all over; no hope of recovery entertained. Thomas Carroll, aged 13, burnt very severely on back and face, left arm smashed : not expected to live. Joseph John Siddons, 13, burnt very deeply on the hands and shoulder, and not expected to live. Thomas Siddons, brother of the above, much burnt about the head and face, and is likely to recover. Edward Day, head cut in two or three places. The cause of the accident appears to have been of a somewhat reckless character according to the accounts given to-day by some of the workpeople who escaped without injury. It appears that a composition, con sisting cf saltpetre, brimstone, and other ingredients excepting gunpowder, used in the manufacture of fire works, had become wet during the night of Tuesday, and as it was wanted for immediate use it was put on the top of a stove to dry. It became hot, ignited, and set fire to the squibs and crackers lying about, as well as to the gun powder." 'there is a rumour at Berlin that King George of Hanover, in the next session of the British Parliament, will take his seat in the Lords as a prince of the blood royal. The improvement in the Krupp cannon, produc tive of such formidable results, consists in the enlarging the chamber is which the cartridge is lodged. The charge is to be double what it was, while the ball remains at its former weight of 2001 b. When tried side by side with the 9-inch Armstrong, having a ball of 2271 b., the Prussian gun proved greatly the superior. The inquest upon the unhappy man Jelley, who eloped with his ward, has resulted in a verdict of "Died from disease of the heart." Ilis heart was declared by the surgeons who made the post mortem examinarion to be the Ltot human heart they bad ever seen. The heart of a man should weigh \from Boz. to 9cz., the heart of this man weighed nearly 320 Z: The statement has been drawn from Sir Charles Lanyon, a t a me eting of Conse rvative electors in Belfast, that "if it came to I;(3 a question between , the lev e lli ng - up system and th e total disendowment of the Church, he would give bid unqualified adhesion to the latter." This expres sion of opinion from the Conservative candidate was loudly applauded. CAPTURE OF AN ESCAPED LUNATIC.—The escaped criminal lunatic, George Turner, who was com• raided to the Broadmoor Asylum for the murder of his wife, has been recaptured. Since his escape he has been wandering about Windsor Forest, and on the 30th of September went into Windsor, whence, after insulting a woman, he returned to the Great Park, and was found by yolice•constable Parson lying among the fern near the statue of King George 111. at the top of the Long Walk, , When found he was wearing tut 9iSlitlighlualuil .~ WF.
