It is earn- LONDON, estly to be hoped that they may not be, for a third time, doomed to be disappointed in their sanguine expectations of success : An extraerdinary meeting of the Town and Harbour Commissioners was held to-day, at two o'clock, for the purpose of meeting an American gen tleman, named Mr. Wagstaff, who came over to Gal way with the object of establishing a line of steamers between this port and New York He was accompa nied by Mr. Ennis, chairman of the Midland Great Western Railway, and Messrs. Boyce Cowper and Sterling, directors. A large number of commis sioners were in attendance. The Rev. Peter Daly, who occupied the chair, introduced Mr. Wagstaff to the meeting, and stated that he brought letters of in troduction to him from the American Ambassador, the Hun. Abbott Lawrence. " Mr. Wagstaff, in a clear and able speech, entered into a statement of the reasons which induced him to come to the conclusion of placing a line of steamers between Galway and New York, and said he did so because he was impressed with the conviction that such a project would pay. He might not succeed in the first or second or third trip; but he still would not be disheartened—his experiment should last for six months. The vessel which he had now prepared ready to start, and which would leave New York— (Loud cheers)—for Galway, was, he had no hesita tion in saying, one of the fastest and strongest steamers which ever sailed on the ocean. In proof of this Mr. Wagstaff read a certificate from the 'Mercan tile Mutual Assurance Company. This vessel would be followed by others of the very strongest and swiftest build which it could be possible for wood and iron to make. It was the intention of himself and of his father to bring, by means of other communication, the goods and passen ger traffic of the Continent through Ire land. He sought no pecuniary assistance, he merely wanted co-operation and kindly feeling on the part of the people of Galway. With regard to the emigrant accommodation, he was determined to make such an improvement in this particular as had been never before attempted. The steerage passengers should be provided with berths which would contain only two each; the sexes, except in cases of families, should be kept separate; saloons should be provided for them, where they might sit; with proper cooking ac commodation, the best description of food, and a voyage of only eight days, at a charge of 61. each. He would come himself with the first vessel, when he ex pected to he able to enter more fully into details. Mr. Wagstaff, in the course of his observations, passed a high eulogium on the capabilities of the bay of Gal way, and said, though he had travelled a great deal, he had never seen a harbour which possessed more natural advantages for such a project as the present one. The first vessel should sail on the 15th of December from New York, and arrive i❑ Galway on the 23d. _ _ "The CHAIRMAN next introduced Mr. James Stir ling, son of the Mayor of Belfast, to the meeting, and in doing so highly lauded the men of the north, and particularly the venerable Mayor of Belfast. "Mr. STIRLING returned thanks. " The meeting was also addressed by Mr. ENNIS, who promised on the part of the railway company, every assistance and corporation towards carrying out this great project. " On the motion of Mr. STEPHENS, seconded by Mr. J. IRELAND, it was resolved that Mr. Wagstaff's vessel should enter the port free of all dues for the space of six months. " The CHAIRMAN, on behalf of the people of Galway and the Commissioners, claimed Mr. Wagstaff, his captain and officers, as their guests upon their arrival next month. • "The greatest unanimity and enthusiasm pervaded the whole meeting, and Mr. Wagstaff, as well as the other gentlemen who accompanied him, received a warm and hearty welcome."—Times. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nov. 12. (Before the LORD CHANCELLOR.) SCOTT V. SPASHETT . This appeal from the late Vice-Chancellor of England was argued in February last. The matter came before the Court on petition, and the principal question was, whether the petitioner ought not to have proceeded by bill. The petitioner, Mary Ann Spashett, a married woman, was entitled under the will of John Upton to one-tenth of the residuary es tate in conjunction with her husband, and she was also entitled to a sum of 3461. for her separate use, on the death of a person for whom it was invested, to secure an annuity. The husband received the tenth of the residuary estate, and before the death of the annuitant they joined in a sale of the reversionary interest in the 3461. to one Hardinge, who subse quently assigned it to the Reversionary Society. The husband after wards became insolvent, and his property vested in the usual manner in the assignee of the Court. After the death of the annuitant the wife pe titioned for a settlement of the fund to her separate use. The Vice-Chancellor, in February 1850, dis missed that petition, on the ground that in such a case the proceeding must be by bill, and the matter was re-argued on appeal. The LORD CHANCELLOR now gave judgment; and having stated the circumstances of the assignments to Hardinge and to the Reversionary Society, he ob served that Mrs. Spashett and her four children now claimed by a petition to have the fund secured for their separate use. The Vice-Chancellor of England, before whom the petition came, held that the pro ceedings must be by bill, and dismissed the petition of Mrs. Spashett, with costs. His Lordship was of , opinion that the petition ought not to have been dis missed ; and that, both on principle and authority, the matter at issue could be decided without the formality of proceeding by bill. His Lordship could see no reason for the petitioner being put to the de , lay and expense of a suit in equity to obtain a de- Icision on her claim. There was no question raised by the petition which could not be discussed and de cided with as much ease and as satisfactorily as if the matter was involved in the delay and great ex penditure of a suit. There were no questions raised between the petitioner and the other claimants to participate in the residue, and they could not be affected by the decision on the petition, nor was there any reason to believe that justice would not be done by taking the opinion of the court in their absence. His Lordship had been unable to find any case in which it was held that the Court could not so decide on petition, or any authority for a proceeding by bill. Ia a case of Greedy v. Lavender, reported in the 19th number of the Law Journal, 496, the late Master of the Rolls made an order of a somewhat similar nature on peti tion. If it was argued that the respondents in the proceedings by petition were not before the Court, it might be observed that the parties so complaining had themselves brought the matter before the Court for its decision. By obtaining the stop order they had availed themselves of the machinery of the Court for the protection of the fund, and having done so, what was there to restrain the Court from coming to a decision on the conflicting rights of the parties claiming the fund, unless there were matters in dis pute which could not be determined without a suit ? Being of that opinion with respect to the form of the proceeding, his Lordship felt himself called on to make one or two observations on the general equity involved in the claim of the petitioner, and on that point also he entertained no doubt. In Salisbury v. Newton, 1 Eden, 370, a wife was held to be entitled to a provi sion against the particular assignee of the husband for valuable consideration of the whole of her equi table interest. So, also, in Macauley v. Phillips, 4th Vesey, 19, the assignment for valuable consideration of the wife's equitable interest by the husband did not bar her equity. In the case of Wright v. Morley, 11th Vesey, 16, Sir William Grant, said—" If the husband has but the right of reducing the wife's interest into possession, how can he for valuable consideration or otherwise convey more than he has ? If he does not reduce it into possession, it clearly survives." Again, in the case of Elliott v. Cordell, sth Maddock, Sir John Leach (at p. 156) says—" Where an absolute equit able interest is given to the wife, the Court will not permit the husband to possess it without making is provision for the wife, or her express consent ; and all who claim under the husband must take his inte , rest subject to the same equity. In Brett v. Green vell, Younge and Collyer, 230, Baron Alderson, sitting in the Exchequer in Equity, held that the Money in Court was to be applied for the benefit of a married woman, her husband being insolvent. So also Gardner v. Marshall, 14 Simon, 587, the Vice- Chancellor, in directing the application of the fund as a settlement on a wife, remarked on the fact of a hus band, prior to the question arising, having received or had the benefit of a large portion of his wife's fortune, as making a difference when the Court came to dis pose of the remainder. Being of opinion in the pre sent case on authority, that the wife was entitled to have the fund settled on herself and her children, ac cording to the prayer of her petition, and looking at the fact that the husband had already received a large sum out of the estate of John Upton in right of his wife, his Lordship had no hesitation in allowing the appeal and in directing a reference to the Master to approve of a proper settlement of the fund in Court accruing by the death of the annuitant. Order accordingly. COURT OF EXCLIEC2tiEII, Nv. 12. (Sitingl in B nco,) THE ATTORNEY GENERAL V. THE LONDON DOCK COM PANY.--ALLEGED ritAUDS ON THE REVENUE. At the sittings of the Curt to day Mr. Wild movad for a writ of delivery directed to the Commis iiioners of her Majesty's Customs, authoring thew to give up to the defendants all the goods mentioned in the indentures of appr , aiseruent, an d w hi ch had been seised on the company a premises in order that they might be entered in the books of the company, and the. duty paid upon them. The LORD CHIEF BARox—Does your motion apply to all the cases? Mr. iVILDE said that application retvrred to all the eases against the London Dock Company, but not to those of the St. Katharine Dock Company. Mr. GROVE, on the part of the Dock Company con sented, and the applica , ioa was granted. The Court rose at half -past one o'clock for the no mination of Sheriffs by the Privy Council. (Sittings in Llnion at NiA Prins in Michaelmas Term, before Mr. Baron MARTIN, end Common Juries.) This was the "first sittings" for Michaelmas Term at Nisi Prius. THURSDAY EVENING, MILLER IP. HATCH. This was an action on a bill of exchange for 851. The defendant pleaded the general issue. Mr. Bramwell and Mr. Jones were counsel for the plaintiff, and Mr. Petersdorff appeared for the de tendant. The plaintiff in this cases, it appeared, was foreman and brother-in-law to sir. Bennett, of Hart•street, Bloomsbury, pencil- brueh manufacturer; while the defendant was a wholesa e furrier in Friday-street. It seemed that from the statement of the Learned Counsel who appeared for the plaintiff, that in the month of September, 1848, Mr.B•nnett was indebted to the plaintiff to the rx:ent of 85/. for wages, and it was represented that Mr. Bennett had an interview with the defendant, and had arranged that he (the plaintiff) should draw a bill, which should be ac cepted by Bennett and endorsed by the defendant, and that the proceeds of the acceptance, after it had been discounted, were to be handed over to the plaintiff. The bill was accordingly drawn, accepted, and endorsed, as stated, on the 4th of September, 1848, and it was then delivered to the defendant to get it discounted ; it appeared, however, at the same time, that various mercantile transac tions were existing between Mr. Bennett and the defendant, to whom, it was alleged, he owed a con siderable sum of money. The plaintiff never received any part of the proceeds of the bill. In the course of October, 1848, Mr. Bennett got into difficulties, and the plaintiff never heard of the bill until he re ceived an application for its payment at the expira tion of twelvemonths, the date at which the accep tance was drawn. _ _ Mr. Bennett and the plaintiff were called, who stated in substance, that the bill was drawn with the express understanding that the money should be handed to the defendant, land that it was totally ir respective of any business transactions which might have existed between Mr. Bennett and plaintiff. Mr. PETERSDOEFF contended that the defendant neither contemplated nor intended to benefit the plain tiff, but to get the best security he could for goods which he had caused through his introduction to be supplied to Bennett. The defendant was called, and stated that Bennett was indebted to him to the amount of 5001. in the month of October, 1848, and that the bill in question was given to secure the payment for the goods which he had caused to be supplied. Mr. Baron MARTIN summed up, and in the course of his observations said the jury would have a very painful duty to perform, as the statement of the plaintiff and his witness was totally at variance with the evidence of the defendant. The jury would, however, weigh the probalities of the case, and, after giving it their best attention, deliver their verdict accordingly. The jury, after a long consultation, and having ex pressed a wish to be released from delivering a ver dict in so distressing a case, retired, and eventually returned into court with a verdict for the plaintiff.— Damages 851. POLICE INTELLIGENCE GUILDHALL. Messrs. Halladay and Clemitson, of Watling-street, appeared before Alderman Sir Robert Walter Car den and Alderman Wilson, on an information, charg ing them with making and selling an article of wear• ing apparel, alleged to be a fraudulent imitation of a design called a " Pelle," registered by Messrs Phelps, M%Morlond and Co. Mr. Hindrnarsh, instructed by Mr. Gray, con ducted the case for the complainants, and Mr. Web ster, instructed by Mr. Parker, appeared for the defendants. Mr. llindmarsh said that Messrs. M'Morland and Co. were the proprietors of a registered design for a shawl, to which was attached a hood in such a manner that the combination of the two articles made them subservient to the purposes of either a cloak or a shawl. The defendants had brought out an article identically the same, or so closely like, as to render it a fraudulent imitation. The registered article and the copy were then pro duced, and compared, when Sir R. W. CARDEN re marked that he could not perceive the slightest diffe rence between them. Mr. Webster readily admitted that when in wear they were to all appearancea precisely similar, only that the alleged copy was an improvement upon the other, in consequence of the hood being removed at the pleasure of the wearer. That, however, was not the ground of the defence. Mr. Ilindmarah said be had received some intima tion that the defence intended to be set up was, that it was not new or original, as the idea of a shawl or a hood separately was as old as the hills. He, however, assured his Learned Friend that Lord Campbell de cided, in the Court of Queen's Bench, on Saturday last, in a case where a registered " button" was sought to be protected—his Lordship said, that though the Queen's arms and the garter, or scroll, with a niltto, were each of them in dividually old, yet the combination of those sub jects might be so arranged as to form a pretty and original design, and threfore would have a fair claim to protection. That case was precisely the same as the one in dispute; though the component parts of the article were old in themselves, the novelty consisted in the combination. It was then shown by witnesses that if the shape and configuration of the shawl or hood were altered by the complainants in their manufacture, no matter how materially, so long as they still remained a shawl or a hood, it would not prejudice the registration, provided that the combination was retained. Mr. Webster then stated the two Acts of Parlia ment under which these proceedings were taken quite put the complainant out of court. The first was the " Ornamental" Act, and the other was the " Non ornamental, or Utility" Act. He contended, there fore, that the article registered by the complainant was not an article for registration, but ought to have been patented. For as the shape and configuration might be altered without affecting the registration, it was then simply a combination of material parts that ought to have been made the subject of a patent. Alderman WILSON asked Mr. Webster if he thought the complainants would have had a stronger right under a patent ?—Mr. 'Webster said undoubt edly they would. Tney ought never to have regis tered it, since they have not done so for its shape or configuration. Alderman WILSON wished to know what was meant by the word "configuration," as two of the chief jus tices had differed upon that point 7—Mr. Webster said he could not give a better illustration than that of the " button" his friend quoted, wherein it was decided that the combination formed a pretty pattern that might be termed a "new and ornamental shape or con figuration." Sir R. W. CARDEN inquired if Mr. Webster meant to contend that complainants could not claim any protection under the registration certificate ? Mr. Webster said he certainly did, and if the complain ants had had any discretion they would never have registered an article of that description. Sir R. W. CARDEN said he thought he could not adjudicate in this case, unless it was proved that the the defendants resided at the premises in Watling street, as in the event of a conviction he could not enforce the order. Mr. Hindmarsh said he was not in a position to prove that, and he would, therefore, leave it to the aldermen whether they would adjourn the summons or dismiss it. The summons was then dismissed without costs. John Tebbitt, the man who was stated to be con nected with a gang of horse chaunters, and who has been remanded from time to time, in consequence of his being unable to leave the hospital from injuries he received on being thrown from a horse he was charged with stealing, was committed to Newgate for trial. _ . Neil Mae Shane, who was charged with assaulting Margaret Bosphar, by striking her on the head with an immense kitchen poker, and thereby endangering her life, was also brought up and committed for trial. BOTil-STREET. John Mansell Schmidt, a young man who had lost his right arm, and was described as a Chelsea pen sioner, was brought before Mr. Henry, charged with embezzling small sums of money, amounting to 401., which he had received on behalf of Baron de Tremb lay, an exhibitor of China wares in the French de partment of the Great Exhibition. The prisoner bad been employed to deliver articles purchased of the prosecutor, and to receive the amounts charged for them. our cases only were se lected from a great number for prosecution. Mr. E G. Smith, of Wilton-crescent, proved the payment of 3/. 163. to the prisoner in behalf of Cap tain Archibald Rob: tson for articles purchased of the B iron at the Great Exhibition. The butler of the lion. Mrs. Bathurst, of Gros venor square, deposed to having made a similar pay ment to the prisoner for his mistress. Evidence was also given of similar payments on behalf of Mr. J. Moraut, of Park-lane, and Mr. T, Campbell, sculptor, of Marlborough-street. Alexis de Tremblay, the prosecutor, deposed that the prisoner did not account to him for any of these payments, although furnished with the articles to which they related for delivery to the purchasers. The prisoner, who said he should reserve his defence fora jury, was committed for trial. CLERKEN WELL. Mr, Thomas Davis, Vernon-place, Baguigge NOVEMBER 13, 1851. Wills-road, who his been several tim , s exqtnioed, charged with the wilful murder of Mrs. ElizAbetia Dor..thea Davis, his wife, was finally examined. WAeling, for the prisoner, contended that there was no evidence to prove haw the deceased's hand was injured. The coroner's jury had returned a verdict that the deceased died from inflAunnation of the arm, hut how it was caused there was not sufficient evidence to show. If the prisoner w4s to be cointnlttea or the mauslitugh er, tie suggested than bail might be taken for his appearance at the sessions. Mr. Binns objected to bail. Mr. COREIE said he had given the case his fullest attention, and had decided on committing the prisoner for trial, on the charge of manslaughter; and as the sessions were so near, he should decline taking bail. The prisoner was accordingly fully committed to Newgate for trial. WORSHIP-STREET. Yesterday being the day appointed for the re exa mination of an extensive body of alleged swindlers, who were charged with conspiring together to obtain goods and money from merchants, tradesmen, and loan societies, to a large amount, the court was densely thronged with respectable persons from an early hour, amongst whom were, as estimated by the officers, nearly a hundred complainants, who had charges of that kind to prefer against them. Tee first prisoner so placed at the bar was George Grey Kingdon, but also known under a number of aliases, who was charged with obtaining numerous sums of money from diffsrent loan societies under false and fraudulent representations. Upon several cases the prisoner was discharged, as coming within the category of simple contract debts; upon others he was remanded for a week upo❑ bail and recognisances to the amount of 1601. Matthew Matthews, Charles Richard Burdett Walker, Horatio Stainbridge, Richard Lowe, and Francis Williams, five very respectable looking young men, were next put to the bar fur further exami nation. Mr. Lewis, the solicitor, was now in attendance, and stated that he appeared on behalf of the Trades' Protection Society, 170, Regent-street, to charge the prisoners with probably the most widely ramified and systematic conspiracy to defraud the public that had ever been brought within the cognisance of a police court. He was in possession of a vast number of charges against them, but in consequence of being only recently retained, and the complicated and intri cate nature of the facts, he was only at present pre pared to go into one, in addition to those before en tered upon, though at the next examination he should be in a position to adduce such evidence as would con clusively implicate the whole of the accused in a charge of conspiracy. After some evidence, which went to establish the joint conspiracy of the prisoners, the magistrate ordered the whole of them to be remanded, and posi tively refused to accept any bail fur their future ap pearance. An elderly respectably dressed woman, named Eliza Buckell, was next charged with being a party to the fraudulent conspiracy of the last-mentioned prisoners. She was also remanded, and ordered to be brought up next week for re-examination with the other prisoners. Four other men, named William lon, George Crowe, James Cowley, and Joseph Johnson, who were transferred to this court from Marlborough • street, upon suspicion of having acted in conjunction with the former prisoners in carrying out their fraudulent purposes, and in whose possession a num ber of documents was discovered, containing lists of names for reference to each other, as fictitious secu rities in their operations, were next brought up ; and after a short examination were also ordered to be re manded. SOUTHWARK. Thomas Gregory, a printer, was summoned for re fusing to deliver up a manuscript copy of a lecture on Bloomerism, the property of a Mr. Jobson. The complainant stated that he intrusted the manu script to the defendant for the purpose of printing it, but instead of doing so he used it on his own account. With this view he entered into an arrangement with a lady, made her learn the contents of the manuscript by heart, and introduced her to the public to lecture on Bloomerism. That they travelled the country to gether, and were reaping a rich harvest. He (com plainant) finding how matters were going on, and not having sanctioned such a U9O to be made of his manuscript, had therefore adopted the present pro ceeding in order to compel the restitution of it, and make defendant and the lady to desist from their con duct. A respectable-looking woman, who described her self as the defendant's wife, said that he was at pre sent out of town, but that she was prepared to deliver up the manuscript, and had brought it down to the court for that purpose. She here handed it to the complainant, who, on glancing at it, said it was not all there. Mr. ATECKETT-Ii the manuscript in your bind writing ? The complainant answered i❑ the affirma tive, but said that a copy of it had been taken and detained by the defendant. _ _ Mr. AIjECKETT said, that if the defendant in fringed the complainant's copyright, he had his re medy against him, but not in this court; that the manuscript named in the summons was now produced, and, so far as that went, the purpose was answered for which the application was made. The complainant said that a portion of his manu script was still kept back, and that his principal object was to have it restored, and to prevent the parties from making any further use of it. Mr A'BECKETT slid that he had no objection to adjourn the further hearing of the case for a week. HEALTHOF LONDON DURING THE WEEK. (From the Registrar-General's Report.) It was shown in the report for the last week of Oc tober that the mortality was considerably diminished ; it now appears that concurrently with a great fall in the temperature it has again risen to nearly the same amount as prevailed during the earlier part of last month. The deaths registered in London in the week ending last Saturday were 989. In the ten corresponding weeks of the years 18-11-50 the aver age was 967 ; but the population has increased since that period, and the averge, if corrected, in propor tion to the increase, is 1,064, compared with which last week's mortality shows a decrease of 75. The increase in the previous week is visible amongst the young, the middle-aged, and persons of advanced life. It is also observed in all those classes of disease which mike the largest contributions to the mor tality ; for last week the deaths enumerated in the epidemic class rose from 222 to 242, those in the tubercular class from 156 to 171, those caused by diseases of the brain, spinal marrow, &c. 7 from 78 to 115 ; those by diseases of the heart, &c., from 33 to 40 ; those by diseases of the lungs and other organs of respiration, from 105 to 148 ; by diseases of the stomach, liver, and other organs of digestion, from 54 to 63; by diseases of the kidneys, &c., from 6 to 11; by rheumatism and diseases of the joints, &c, from 3 to 8 ; by atrophy, from 16 to 23. As in former weeks, scarlatina and typhus predo minate amongst epidemics, the former having in creased in fatal cases from 50 in the previous week to 59 in the last. Typhus numbers 58, besides 2 from ague, 1 from remittent fever, 1 from infantine fever, and 3 from rheumatic fever, but at present it does not show a disposition to become more fatal. The mortality from small-pox rose from 17 deaths in the previous week to 24 (21 children having died of it last week, and 3 adults above 15 years of age). It is stated in only one case that vaccination had been previously performed. Besides the above, the death of a child of one year occurred from chicken-pox. On 30th October, in Lambeth, at 29, James-street, the son of a wood sawyer, aged 2 years, died of " small-pox." Mr. Dews states that "the mother of the deceased nursed four of her children together when ill with small-pox, and having nursed others under the same disease she did not consider it neces sary to have medical assistance, which was not called in till the child was dying. The medical attendant therefore declined giving a certificate. On asking the mother why she did not vaccinatesher children, she said she had seen three different instances of children breaking out in sores on their beads after vaccination, which were not cured for two or three years. This she attributed to foul lancets being used, which ap peared also to be the opinion of the doctor who attended one of the children." In the sub-district of Somers-town, at 2, Charles place, the daughter of a farrier, aged 7 years, died of " scarlatina (1 day), convulsions (10 hours)." Two sisters of the deceased, and a brother, aged 16 years, died previously of the same disease ; their deaths were registered in the week ending 27th September. In the same sub-district, at 20, Melton -crescent, the son of an engineer, aged 16 years, died of "scarlatina anginosa (6 days), hydrocephalus internus (3 days)." Mr. Matthews states that the drainage in the latter place is bad. At 3, Elizabeth-place, Ball's-pond, on the Ist and sth November respectively, two children, aged severally 9 months and 8 years, died of "scarlatina anginosa ;" and at 1, Crown- cottages, Upper Hollo way, the daughter of a grocer, aged 8 years, died on 3d November of "scarlatina (9 days)," the sister of deceased having died of it on 27th October. On the 2,1 and 3.1 November the son and daughter of a light porter, aged respectively 12 years and 16 month', died at 3, Langley-street, Long-acre, of " malignant scar latina, after ill ness o f 10 an d 9 d a y s ' d u ration." In St. Mary's, Marylebone, at 34, Horace-street, on the 4th and sth November, two sons of a labourer died of scarlatina, which in one case was followed by en largel glands. In the South sub-district of West London, at 1, Dean-street, St. Andrews, the sou of a printer, aged 4 years, died on 7th November of " scarlatina (7 clays). " •Mr. ,Nason,-the registrar,_ adds that " this is the fourth death in the same house from scarlatina, three having previously occurred in another family, that of a compositor mentioned in former reports.

PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 12.—The Simoom, iron troop steam-ship, was docked on Monday for th e purpose of having the necessary pipes fitted alsotte dfotor haveGr hante'rs cooking and distilling galley, and bottom examined. When in dock last Decemb er s h e was coated over with Mr . Hay's composition, and yesterday it was found to be in a most excel lent state of preservation. There was no oxidation on the iron plates of her bottom, excepting some small spots where the composition had been rubbed off by shores, and some patches along her port side light line of floatation, where the stages when lying along side to remove her machinery had chafed off the com position. Along her lands there was an accumula tion of polypi, which washed off easily, as did the soft and muddy slime, leaving the comp os i t i on on her bot tom hard and firm. With the offtuers under her poop, and the crew under her topgallant forecastle—which leaves her spacious decks entirely for troops—she will be the finest and most complete troop transport ever seen. The Tiger, steam-sloop, 400-horse power, one of the advanced, was taken out of this harbour yesterday round Spithead, to tent the efficiency of her machinery and engines. The Hecate, steam-sloop, Commander G. Hand, went out of this harbour yesterday at 110011, and an chored at Spithuad, where she awaits orders. The old coal depot, the Mersey, is to be brought into the dock, vacated by the Edinburgh, to he broken up by the men in the yard. The Sprightly, steamer, Commander Allen, has been brought into dock to have her bottom cleaned. It was very foul, completely covered with muscles and animalcula. She will undock tomorrow. The Helena was at (in:nada on the 13th of a.qo ber, with orders to leave on the 14th for Bermuda and England. A. , 1,,„4 et, kit', boi, rtri kt t , t oq‘., d^J t; 4 "te; g't wr 4, 11, h;l1t,
