PUBLIC lIILALTII. GUTTA PERCHA TUBING, &c The Gutta Percha Company have the pleasure to acknow. edge the receipt of the following Testimonials : (Cori.) " Stirling, January 2b_, 1850. .. I have great pleasure In informing you that I hid a tlllll to-day of the I gutta percha tube I had from you in December last, In prestnce of a Committee of the Town Council, who were highly pleased with the experiment, and have resolved to have 400 feet of the same for attaching to our fire-plugs for extinguishing fires, and watering the streets in dry weather. lam of opinion that no mate rial is so well fitted for the above purpose as the gutta percha, for although our pressure is perhaps the greatest in the kingdom, being upwards of 450 feet, not the slightest effect could be discovered on the tube or joints, while the same pressure on our leather hose sends the rivets in all directions. —I am, your obedient Servant, " ANDREW ROBERTSON." From JOHN TAYLOR GORDON, E sq., !CD, (heretofore Physician to his late INIAJESTY and the Duke of Cambridge, but now retired). (Coev,) 34, Somerset-street, Portman-square, London, " April 10, 1850. " Gentlemen,—Without reference to the variety of useful and or namental purposes to which gutta percha is adapted, I consider it in a sanitary point of view to be a most fortunate and important covery. I have already (from a sole regard to the public benefit) certified my decided approval of it fur the under soles of shoes, and I have only to add that I find it equally well applied to walking or dress shoes and boots by your a g ents. As the supply of pure water is so es sential to health, and leaden pipes and cisterns are so objectionable, I cannot too highly recommend the gutta percha for tubing and lining. I am, gentlemen, your humble servant, "J. TAYLOR GORDON." (The above Dle MURRAY voluntary testimonial)._ FROM , OF NULL. (Corr.) Portland-place, Hull, March 28, 1850. " Gentlemen,—lt is impassible td conceive of anything more in jurious and destructive to the health of the community than the use o (leaden pipes for the conveyance of water. The poisonous salts of lead thereby communicated are most insiduous and subtile. I hail with gratitude the substitution of gutta percha tubing. I have had the leaden pipe of my own house removed and supplied by ens of gotta percha. lam, respectfully , G e ntlemen, your obedient servant , " J, 3.IIItRAY, Yx. D." In consequence of improved machinery, whereby a continuous supply of gutta percha is maintained, the Gutta Percha Company arc enabled to supply the tubing in much greater lengths than formerly.

" I know you have never had occasion to take Blair's Pills, but let me emphatically tell you, in mercy i to any friend who may suffer from gout, rheumatic gout, lumbago, sciatica, rheumatism, or any branch of that widely-allied family, to recommend their using them. In this country they are of wonderful efficacy : not only am I person ally aware of their powers, but I see my friends and acqu. , lntances receiving unfailing benefit from their use. I would not be without them on any account. If taken in the early stage of disease they dissipate it altogether ; if in a later, they alleviate pain and effect a much speedier cure than by any other means within my knowledge."

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. DEATH OF VICE-ADMIRAL OF, THE ,RED SIR J, P. COGHILL.—Died on : the 20th instant, at Kenilworth House, Cheltenham, in the 78th year of his' age. Sir Josiah Coghill Coghill, Bart., Vice-Admiral of the Red, of Belvedere House, county Dublin. The following is the history of the services oft hmiatlaut o ffi cer, published in " O'Byrne's Naval lliograi4i"7--" Sir Josiah Cog hill Coghill, born in 1773, is youngest son of the late Sir John Coghill, Bart., by Mary, daughter of Dr. . Jo siah Hort, Arcbisbop of Them. He auccee4e4 _brother. as_thirdJ Daronat. May 21', . ,18517, and, assumed in the following Tune the 'BUrne.m(t of Coghill; Lii plebe of his patronymic Cramer. This officer entered the nary in April, 1782, as captain's servant on,board :the Bristol, 50, Captains Hugh Campbell and Jae., Burney, with whom' he served in. the East Indies until he was discharged in April, 1788: In April, 1798, he re-em- . barked on board the Haerlem, 64, aretee . en flute, Captain George Burlton,, in which ship, having been created an acting-lieutenant in Sept., 1798, he was officially promoted May 24, 1800. After attending the subsequent expedition to Egypt, and cutting out, in command of the Haerlem's boats, the Prima galley, from the mole of Genoa, he removed, April 25, 1801, to ihe Africalne, Captain James Stephenson; and, on May 7, 1802, was promoted, from the Didaigneuse frigate, Captain Thomas George Shortlaud, to the com mand of the Rattlesnake sloop, in the East Indies; where, with two boats under his immediate orders, we find him, after a sanguinary contest, destroying a pirate vessel on the coast of Malacca. Having obtained, April 25, 1805, the acting command of La Concorde, 36, Cap tain Coghill, on February 1, 1806, received an Admi ralty commission confirming his appointment to that frigate, in which he continued until September, 1807. On next joining, October 2, 1809, the Diana, 38, he forthwith proceeded to join the armament then off Wal cheren, and arrived in time to perform service marked by the approbation of the Commander-in-Chief. Cap tain Coghill left the Diana in February, 1810, and re mained on half-pay until October 7, 1813, when he was appointed to the Liter, 36, in which he served on the Leeward Island station until July, 1815. He has not been since afloat. His promotion to flag rank took place November 23, 1541. Sir Josiah Coghill, who is deputy lieutenant for county Dublin, married, first, in March, 1803, Sophia, daughter of James Dodson,l,q., by whom (who died in 1817) he had three daughters; and, se condly, Jauuary 27, 1819, Anna Maria, eldest daughter of the late Right Hon. Charles Kendal Thisbe, Lord Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench in Ire land, by' whom "he has living two sons and seven daughters." The royal yacht the Victoria .and Albert, Captain Lord Adolphus Fitaclarence, will sail at.. about six o'clock this evening for Plymouth, where she will re ceive dispatches for Lisbon. She will also touch - at St. Sebastian and Gibraltar.. The, Stromboli steam-sloop, Commander Lord A. Beauclerk, and, the iron , steam frigate Birkenhead, Cominander Stevens, will also sail about the same time, with provisions for' the Lisbon squadron. His Royal Highness Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar, Sir Joseph Copley, and Sir George Wombwell will ac company Lord Adolphui ritzclarence in his cruise in the royal yacht. Four mates have been appointed to the royal yacht. A special passing day was ordered at the Naval College, at Portsmouth, on Saturday, to qualify . Mr. Somerset to join her as one of them. _ _ _ The Birkenhead iron steam-frigate, Commander J. A. Stevens, is re-storing with supplies for Commodore Mar tin's squadron. When she left the Tagus on Sunday last four of the ships were about being detached from the squadron—the Indefatigable, 50, Captain Smart, Ku ~ and the Conflict, 8, Commander Drake, whose d-stination was Cuba. The Hogue, 60. Captain M'aitigall, was to sail to. join Sir W. Parker's squadron at Matta. The Thetis, 40, Captain Cock.' ngton, C. 8.. was about sailing for Plymouth to be paid off. The Prince Regent, 90. Commodore Martin ; Phaeton, 50, Captain Elliott ; and Encounter, 14, Captain Gor don, are expected to be shortly sent to the Mediterra ntan ; the Leander, 50, to the Pacific ; the Arethusa, to South America ; the Arrogant, 46, Captain Ro binson, to remain on the home station. Com modore Martin, with the Prince Regent. the Phaeton, the Leander, the Aretbusa, and the Encounter, was to proceed. to Cascaes Bay, on the arrival of the next packet. The squadron had been well ex ercised in shifting toptails, reefing in stays, &c., in which exercises the commodore's ship had been first. A trial of sailing had taken place since the last evolutions. The weather line was composed of the Prince Regent, the Leander, the Phaeton, the Arrogant, the Encounter, and the Conflict, to windward; the lee line was composed of the Thetis, the Indefatigable, and the Arethusa. The Phaeton beat the Arethusa hull down to windward; the Arethusa and the Phaeton kept their stations under top- sails only. In a second trial, before the wind, the Are thusa and the Phaeton were equal; the Leander very well; the Encounter, the Conflict, and the Arrogant very bad. It was expected when Captain Symonds had trimmed his ship she would do better. The Encounter could not keep up with the Commodore. The Conflict was weatherly. The Indefatigable sprung her topsail yard. Two men were killed on board the Arethusa lately by falling from aloft while exercising. The squadrom was very healthy. As Commander Stevens was going alongside the Birkenhead, in the Tagus, on a strong tide, the bowman of the boat missed his footing, fell overboard, and, notwithstanding the promptest efforts to save him, was drowned. The Sealark, 8, Commander Sotheby, will leave Ports mouth-harbour to-morrow, and proceed to Plymouth to take out the July mail to the coast. The Odin, steam-frigate, recently paid off, has been brought under the shears at Portsmouth, and. has had her guns taken out preparatory to her being taken into the steam-basin. The Termagant steam-frigate has been brought into the old basin at Portsmouth and dismasted; she is to have a stouter bowsprit, the steps of her foremast and mizmmasts are to be altered, and her mainmasts will be shitted 7 feet further forward, which will require her main channels to be shifted. The Rev. Mr. Berthon's patent log or speed indicator, has been tried in the little steamer the Bee, tender to the Excellent, at Portsmouth, and we understand with the most satisfactory results, as prove' by a variety of trials along the measured mile in Stokes Bay. We have no doubt this valuable machine will, ere long, come into ge• neral use. The Nile convict-ship, arrived at Portsmouth on Saturday morning, from the river, outward bound. The Bombay transport, with a division of the 7th Royal Fusiliers on board, from Halifax, is hourly ex pected at Spithead. When they arrive the troops will be landed at the dockyard, and will proceed to Winches ter immediately. APPOINTMENT, Naval Cadet—Richard Beaumont to the Fisgard. FURTHER EXPERIMENTS ON THE EFFECT OF SHOT ON THE Hula. or 'non VESSELS.—Some further expe riments have been made at Portsmouth during the past week by Captain Chads, of the Excellent, The front side of the iron butt having been knocked to pieces on the former trials, a new iron side had been made and placed up for fresh practice. It has been stated that the practice has not been a fair test on account of tke butt, or section of an iron steam frigate ' s main-deck having been from old iron; however, this is not the case, for the first butt was made with new iron and of the best description. Oa Friday, a trial of the effect on 10-inch hollow shot took place, fired from the fixed stage battery near the Excellent—two were fired, both struck the butt and the shot shivered to atoms on striking the iron; the fractured pieces of shot, the splinters from the iron plates, and the longer and more dangerous pins from the iron ribs render the striking of a largo hollow shot more terrific to an iron vessel than the bursting of a shell on board her; a 10-inch shot could scarcely enter an iron vessel without coming in contact with some of the angles of the iron ribs, and therefore every shot that might strike would break to pieces. We hear that a butt is t,) bo practised at where the iron plate; will be cased inside with strong planking, to try whether the wood will prevent the iron from flying off in splinters. [A D VERTISEMENT.] —THE Is; ATUALL AND UN NATURAL STYLE.--If you wish to excel, study nature; this is particularly applicable in making ornamental hair, as unless the previous way of wearing it is imitated, so complete a transformation takes place, that, as Byron says, " a mother would not know her son." Ross and Sons having succeeded beyond all calculation in producing perfect imitations of na t ure , have given the name of th e Invisible Ventilating Head of Hair to their productions, and are enabled to offer them to both ladies and gentlemen, from one guinea and a half upwards. They likewise present an infallible mode of measuring, via —the round of the head; from ear to ear across the rise of the head : from forehead to pole ; the mea sure to be taken With a piece of tape, and a small lock. of hair enclosed, which will be closely matched, both in colour and quality.
