GEORGE EDWARD lIOLLEST, of Frimley, Surrey —Frimley, Bag sh,e, November, I iZO. —An earnest APPEAL to public benevolence is respectfully submitted to a few triends and neighbours on behalf of the WIDOW of the late Rev. GEORGE EDWARD HOLI.EST, who for a p -riod of 11 years, in an exemplary manner, performed the duties of his church. and was distinguished by his benevolence and charity in the wide district under his charge. The act of atrocity by which the Rev. Mr. Holiest was suddenly cut off is universally known, but those only who are acquainted with his posi tion are aware that he never had the means of making a provision for his widow. Under such circumstances, it is hoped that the case of Mrs Holle,t will commend itself to the generous consideration of those who are blessed with the means of alleviating, so far as human sympathy and assistance can alleviate, the distress of a family so fearfully bereft of its natural supporter. The income of Mrs. Holiest does not exc:ed 401. per annum, and subscriptions are earnestly solicited in aid of these inadequate means. Subscriptions will be thankfully received by the following bankers :—Messrs. Berries, Farquhar, and Co. ; Messrs. Williams, Deacon, and Co.; Messrs. Barclay, Tritton, and Co. ; Messrs. Coutts, and Ce.; Messrs. Smith, Payne, and Co; Sir C. Scott, Bart., and Co., I, Cavendish square ; Messrs. Mangles, Brothers, Guildford; Messrs.

It is a novel adaptation of the old Railway Rug (without its horse-cloth appearance), to a double purpose—that is to say, besides being used us a wrapper for the knees, it can be used as a cloak for the shoulders. Thus, by simply drawing in a string, rests are formed for the shoulders, and the garment assumes the graceful appearance of the ancient Toga . (whence its name) Tne price is One Guinea, or with a hood (now in general use for travelling in France), and bound with braid, it is One Guinea and a Half.

MEETING AT WARE HORNE. On Wednesday a large and spirited meeting of the inhabitants of Warehorne and its vicinity was held in the National School-room, Warehorne, to consider the propriety of presenting an address to her Majesty the Queen, on the attempted assumption of temporal and spiritual authority by the Pope of Rome, to protest against such unwarrantable preten sion and aggression, and to assure her Majesty of their unalterable attachment to her royal person and government, and to the institutions of the country, and of their cordial co-operation with their fellow subjects to uphold the undoubted prerogatives of the Crown, and their own religious liberties. The room was densely crowded by persons of all denominations and parties, many standing at the doors and windows, being unable to gain admission. The Rev. Joule DUFTON, Rector of Warehorne, having been called to the chair, and having detailed the objects of the meeting, as mentioned above, pro ceeded to say that there were occasions in every country, and critical times would arise, when persons in the most quiet walks of life must step forth from their retirement to express their sentiments on what was taking place, and what, at this junc ture, all must acknowledge to be a most insolent and audacious aggression by the Pope of Rome. Such a time had arrived when they saw a foreign potentate pretending to take possession of this country as a spiritual waste, carefully mapping it out into districts, and arrogating to himself th e r i g h ts, pr i v il eges , an d prerogatives of our most gra c i ous S overe i gn , supreme in all causes ecclesiastical or civil, and who alone was the fountain and source of all honour and dignity in this kingdom. This audacious aggression of the Pope, which they were this'evening met to repel, was, in his opinion, and he believed it was the unanimous feeling of the meeting, a direct insult to the Queen and an outrage on the Protestant feeling of the coun try.—(Cheers.) On this point he trusted there was but one feeling of indignation, but one feeling of re sistance among them.— (Loud cheers.) The question was not merely whether the Pope had a right to do what be had done or not, but it was a question which must ultimately decide whether the people of England were Protestant, and being Protestant, whether they were determined to stick to the glorious principles of the Reformation—principles which it cost their fore fathers so much to secure—principles which it was our duty to preserve unsullied, in defiance of the daring and unparalleled attempt to impose the fetters of a foreign potentate on our rights, our liberties, and our con sciences.—(Applause.) For his part, his motto was " Fear not." He never for a moment could think that any harm could issue from such an open attempt of the Papal power. He believed it would be unsuc cessful for its avowed object, and would only redound to its own discomfiture. He believed it would be overruled for good by the Almighty Disposer of all events.—(Hear, hear.) But shall we tamely submit to tyranny like this ? Shall we look on such pro ceedings with unconcern or with indifference ? Shall we hold our peace ? No, no. Our loyalty to our we owe it to our Sovereign shall burn the brighter. Our Protes otaonutnistr, m y shallnay in goorset,rownegeorw. itS Surely o y ur Saviour to vin el e dicate the beautiful Church he has committed to our charge. We will let the Pope know, Dr. Wise man, now a " cardinal priest, , ' and the organised Roman hierarchy—we will bring the matter honestly and boldly before them—we will take our stand, and we will tell them that they shall not dare thus to tamper with the supremacy of the Queen, the liberty of the subject, and the reli gion of the nation.—(Great cheering.) It should never be forgotten, that one of the steps which led to the Reformation was the renunciation of the Pope's authority, and the decided and unequivocal recogni tion of the reigning Sovereign as 'the head of the Church. Now, he would like to know what change had taken place in the constitution either of Church or State since that eventful period, that would make that lawful now which was pronounced to be unlawful then, and would restore a jot of the Pope's power and authority over this nation which our forefathers so de • cidedly and indignantly spurned.—(Hear, hear.) If such a change had been made, then it would be found in our Acts of Parliament and Statutes ; but let the Act or Statute be produced by which such change is made legal, and until this be done in terms as clear and distinct as he found it in the oath, that "no foreign prince, person, prelate, or potentate, bath, or ought to have, any j urisdiction, power, superiority, pre-eminence, or authority, ecclesiastical or spi ritual, within this realm," be must stand fast to his position, that this Papal assumption is a glarin g , inso lent, and direct assault on the supremacy of our beloved Queen.— (Applause.) For is not the Pope "a foreign prince or potentate," with little power in deed as regards his temporal rule, supported as he is on his tottering throne by 12,000 foreign bayonets, from his own angry subjects, and but lately com pelled to make his escape from his capital on the box of a coach, and disguised in the garb of a foreign livery ?—(Cheers and laught er .) I s h e no t a " foreign person" unknown to us except by his name—a " pre late" of Rome and not of England ?—then what right has he, more than any other foreigner, to exercise his just issued th at " We govern and shall Sussex Kent, lordship over us ? Wh at right has he to issue his "Pastoral sappointing a " Cardin a l pr i es t A rc hbi s h o p o f Westminster," w h o h as the audacity to say in his continue to gover n S urrey, ordinary jurisdicti on ," t h us virtually denying the le gitimate authority o f t h e British Queen.—(Hear.) Is it possible to conceive lang S uuasgsem, more ei t & n , su c. it , with ingto Englishmen than this ? Why, it is the language of our conqueror—the conqueror of our faith !—and with such a conviction it is a stern sense of duty which calls us here to-night, it is a faithful adhe rence to our Protestant faith —to Bible truth—the e: chief corner-stone of th a t c i v i l and religious liberty rbothwhich, as on a solid f o u n d at i on, rests our national prosperity State.--(Cheers.) a village g(e to C e e r s s a . y ) Will you then yield yo ur lib erties to this bull of the pepsepi t It ie in Church of andevery for r the people whether they will lay their conscience at the feet of the Pope and this cardinal priest. Will you ? (Shouts of " No, no.") He re-echoed the indignant no. Free we are, and free we will remain ; and by God's help, no Pope or cardinal priest shall rob us of that precious boon—freedom of conscience—long se cured to us by the triumph of Protestant truth, and' seduce our allegiance from a gracious, a beloved, and pattern Queen.—(Cheers) He saw the Prime Mi nister had spoken out in his truthful and uncompro mising letter to the Bishop of Durham. It was rs noble document, earnestly denouncing the aggression on the Queen's supremacy and the constitutional laws of the realm. On every side he saw his country meeting and giving full expression to their sound Pro testant feelings, and declaring their attachment to our great Protestant institutions in Church and State. He agreed with those who thought that blame was attri butable to too many of the clergy of our Church, who had undoubtedly carried their imitations of Popery, both in doctrine and practice, to such an extent as naturally to lead the Pope and feeble-minded men to think that the " noble-minded people of England " had lost all sense of true religion. He entertained no fear for the consequences. God forbid they should have any such feeling.—(Hear, hear.) The Bible is in the hands of our people. It is the Bible, God's word ; not in Papal bulls—in edicts from Rome—that they look for the rule of their obedience and the found a ti on of their trust. Our Church, appealing to Holy Scripture as the standard of its faith, will not now, in the 19th century, retrace her steps, relapse into the errors which she renounced at the Reformation, and again bow her neck to the yoke and spiritual assumption of Rome. He trusted that all, both Churchmen and Dissenters, would take a large and liberal view of this question, so interesting to all Protestants. He strongly advised them to make it a question amongst themselves as laymen, every loyal and religious man—each on the ground that he thinks most weighty— to oppose the insidious attempts of Rome to degrade and enslave them.—(Cheers.) Who that loves free dom can stand aloof from the great struggle in which the mind of England is now embarked ? Looking at the history of this nation, how is it pos sible for us not to see that this new assumption of power by the Pope is a matter of immense interest to us all, as Christians and as Englishmen ? Surely we must have forgotten our history, if we are indifferent to our present position and the duties it imposes on us ! No doubt there were differences of opinion amongst the Protestants of this realm ; but he felt sure, if they wanted to adjust their differences, Rome was not the umpire whom they would appoint,— (Cheers.) Fortunately, by the blessing of God, one universal feeling pervaded the hearts and minds of the nation. He never knew a subject on which there existed such an extraordinary unanimity. Indeed, when they were told, our Church was a nullity ; our religion, no religion ; our country—the parent and nurse of the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel, the Church Mis sionary, London Missionary, and Wesleyan Missionary Societies—was a spiritual waste and wil derness, and its members could have no hope of ,part' taking in the promises' of the Gospel, because their Church; was not the Church of Christ, he thought' ,they could have but one declaration to make, one ear nest and decided protest,' against Roman domination. --(Loud cheers.) As friend of civil and religioug liberty, he trusted no pains or penalties would be re vived against our Roman Catholic fellow• country men ; let it be manifest, that in protesting against a foreign ecclesiastic in our country, that we are charitable, but firm, determined and faithful ; while setting an example to others of our determination to adhere to the principles of the Reformation, and hold sacred the rights of conscience, that we are calm ; persevering, and resolute—ardent in the hope that decisive steps may be taken to vindicate her Ma• jesty's undoubted rights, to preserve the religious liberties of her subjects, and repel the intolerable aggression of the Pope.—(Cheers.) The Rev. Gentle man then read, examined, and explained to the meet ing the Pope's bull, the pastoral letter of Cardinal Wisetnan, and the oath taken by every Romish bishop on his elevation to the episcopal chair, pointing it out as being of peculiar interest at this eventful crisis. He urged the necessity of a more effectual system of education, as Popery was upheld by ignorance and darkness—the principles of the Reformation,by wisdom and light. He concluded by calling on Mr. Thomas Kingsnorth, churchwarden of Kenardington, to pro pose an address to her Majesty. Mr. KING*NORTH said he had pleasure in attending the meeting, and proposed the address now read for their adoption.—(Cheers.) It was seconded by Mr. WEESES (churchwarden), and carried by acclamation : " TO THE QUEEN'S MOST EXCELLENT MAJESTY. _ _ "The humble address of the Rector, Churchwardens, and other inhabitants of the parishes of Warehorne and Keuardington, in the county of Kent, in public meeting assembled. " May it please your Majesty,—We your Majesty's loyal and faithful Protestant subjects, the rector, church wardens, and other inhabitants of Warehorne, and Kenar dington, in the county of Kent, desire most humbly to approach your Majesty, and declare our unalterable at tachment to your Majesty's Royal person and govern ment, and to the institutions of our country. " We are deeply sensible of the great blessings, both civil and religious, this Protestant nation has enjoyed under the wise and beneficent rule of the illustrious House of Brunswick. " We view with feelings of astonishment and just in dignation the insolent and audacious attempt of the Pope of Rome to rob your Majesty of the supremacy vested in the Crown, by assuming the right to create dignities and confer ecclesiastical and territorial jurisdiction within this your Majesty's realm of England on prelates of his uwn appointment. " We regard this pretension and unwarrantable as sumption of power an insult to your Majesty, a violation of the spirit of the Constitution, and a daring attempt to break down the great bulwarks of the rights and liberties of this Protestant nation. " We are anxious to assure your Majesty of our de termination, as dutiful subjects, to uphold and defend your Royal supremacy and prerogatives in connexion with the glorious principles of the Reformation, which, under God, have been the security alike of the privilege of the Throne and the best interests of the people. " We humbly pray and earnestly appeal to your Ma jesty to take such steps, as in your Royal wisdom shall seem best, to vindic a te y ou r Majesty's lawful and un doubted rights, to preserve the religious liberties of your Majesty's subjects, to repel the intolerable aggression of the Pope, and prevent the acknowledgment or assump tion in this, your Majesty's realm, of any dignity, juris diction, or authority by any foreign prince or potentate. "Nor can we resist the conviction that this aggression has been encouraged from the insidious within,' by the many errors both in doctrine and practice which have lately been introduced by a Ronaanizing party in the Church of England. " We fervently pray that your Majesty may long live, under the Divine guidance and blessing, to sway the des tinies of this great empire, and to be the defender of their civil and religious liberties. " Your Majesty's loyal and faithful subjects." Three cheers were then given for the Queen, and it was proposed that part of the National Anthem should be sung, which was enthusiastically and ener getically responded to by the whole assembly. Mr. BARING next came forward and said, they had been called together by their worthy rector at a mo mentous crisis, and met, he trusted, as Christians who valued the simple and blessed truths of the Gospel which God had been pleased to reveal. They had met also as loyal and faithful subjects, to express their opinions on the assault that had been made on the rights of their Sovereign, and their own freedom and liberties, and to resist it.—(Cheers.) He thought we lived in a highly-favoured land, and under the sway of a good and gracious Queen, and a tolerant Government. We enjoyed the great blessing of religious freedom, every man having the privilege of worshipping God according to the dictates of his own conscience. This was a blessing indeed, and he thanked God for it.— (Cheers.) He then forcibly pointed out the many civil evantages we enjoyed, and called on all heartily to unite to defend the Queen and our faith against this impudent assault of the Pope of Rome.— (Cheers.) Having made a few remarks on Lord John Russell's manly letter, he moved the recond re solution. Mr. JoaN THURSTON, sen., of Ham-street (Wes leyan), said he had listened with much interest to the excellent speech and explanations of the Chair men, and did not expect, when he entered the room, to receive so much information as he had done. He thanked Mr. Dufton for it. He agreed in all that had been said of the inestimable value of the pure word of God.—(Cheers.) The truths of the Gospel were worth struggling for, and he rejoiced to believe that all the Wesleyan body would come forward and op pose the present presumptuous attack on the Queen, and the religious liberties they enjoyed.--(Cheers.) He seconded the resolution, and that the following address be presented to Lord John Russell, M.P., which was carried unanimously : "TO THE RIGHT HON. LORD J. RUSSELL, ILP., FIRST LORD OF HER MAJESTY'S TREASURY, &C., &C. " The respectful address of the rector, churchwar dens, and other inhabitants of Warchorne and Kenar dington, in the county of Kent. " May it please your Lordship,—Feeling in common with the great body of the Protestant clergy and laity of this country, the utmost indignation at the attempt of a foreign putelitlte, the Pope, to establish an organizsd hierarchy within this portion of her Majesty's dominions —an attempt involving a direct and flagrant invasion of the Royal supremacy, of the rights of the Protestant Bishops and clergy, and c f the • spiritual independence of the nation,' we have read with the warmest admira tion, and the liveliest gratitude, a letter which has ap peared in the public prints, bearing your signature, and addressed to the Right Reverend the Bishop of Dur ham.' We rejoice to read in this letter your Lordship's explicit declaration that the present state of the law shall be carefully examined, and the propriety of adopt. ing any proceeding with reference to the recent assump tion of power deliberately considered.' " Assembled as we are in public meeting to address our beloved Queen at this eventful crisis, we cannot se parate without this public expression of our admiration of the noble and constitutional tone of your Lordship's letter, and of our heartfelt thanks for the course your Lordship, in your high and responsible position, has taken—a course in which your Lordship will be enthu siastically supported by every sound-hearted Protestant, and every lover of civil and religious liberty. " We have the honour to remain, with grateful re speA, your Lordship's faithful servants." The third resolution was moved by Mr. Kniss- NORTE' (churchwarden), and seconded by Mr. WooL LEY (Wesleyan). After a vote of thanks to the Chairman, a number of signatures was affixed to each address, and the meeting, which lasted three hours, separated much pleased with the proceedings of the evening. [PRICE SD.

On the evening of the 19th inst., in compliance with a numerously-signed requisition, the Mayor, S. Esq., convened a common hall of the inhabi , tants of Dover, to consider the propriety of adopting an address to ber Alajesty, asserting their attachment to her royal person, and their indignation at the late encroachment of the Pope of Rome, and his preten• sion to supremacy in our land, alike inconsistent with the honour of the Crown and the liberty of the nation. The Town-hall was crammed in every nook and corner, there being, we should judge, not less than 1,500 persons present. The platform was raised upon the left side of the ball, and surrounded by the portrait of her Majesty, supported: on each side by the insignia of the Cinque Ports volunteers, and surrounded by laurel, &c. The Mayor occupied the chair, and was supported on his right by our Hon. Member of Parliament, E. R. Rice, Esq., and on his left, by Sir Brook Bridges, Bart., and J. P. Plumptre, Esq., M.P. Many of the most influential townsmen were also upon the platform. Several speeches were delivered and resolutions in accordance with the ob ject of the meeting carried. RESTORATION OF LAMBETH CHURCH. To effect the desirable object of restoring and beau tifying this venerable and once handsome edifice, the Rev. C. B. Dalton, the rector, has, by great exertions, succeeded in getting up voluntary contributions, by which a great portion of the whole sum required has been raised, and P. C. Hardwick, Esq., appointed archi tect thereto. He has recommended the restoration of the open timber roofs, to throw back the front of the galleries so as to make the seats in and under them more available, and leave the line of pillars and arches un broken. The windows to be restored in Caen stone, on the exact pattern! of -the only three which remain in their original character. • To make use of the vacant space ,at the .west end of the church ? and re-arrange some. of the present pews, 2 9 5‘ additional sittings will be provided, and better eccetnmodation be secured for Vie poor.- - The outer walls to be cased with Kentish rag atone; and the wholes when Completed according to the atiwutgoi will preset § most iateloOing aPPorance. • NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. APP OINTMENTS. The flag-ship at Portsmouth, orcinary depot ship et Sheerness, and flag-ship at Woolwicb, have been paid off and re commissioned. The Victory. at Portsmouth, has been re-commissioned by Captain F. P. Blackwood; and Lieutenant Mason, of the Britannia, ordinary depot, has been appointed first lieutenant of the Victory, vice Bamber. Captain Michael Seymour has commissioned the Mo narch, S 4, at Sheerness, instead of the Wellington, as the urdivary derot, and yesterday relieved Rear-Admiral Price as superintendent of the dockyard. Commodore Eden has re-commissioned the Fisgard at Woolwich; and the Lightning steam-vessel has been commissioned by Mr. Petley, her master-commander, as tender to the Fisgard. Many, but not all of the officers, have been re-appointed. Lieutenant E. E. Morgan to the Calliope, 26, at De vonport. Clerk—George Jeffreys to the Victory, flag-ship at Portsmouth. Gunners—William Andrew (a) to the Monarch, and William Merriman to the Calliope. Paymaster Cornelius Deely (1840), di e d on F r id ay last Tha Britannia's launch, a boat 42 feet in length, is being fitted with the davit and apparatus projected by Lieut. John Seccombe, for carrying and laying out an , anchor and cable. Mr. Seccombe had been down at , Portsmouth personally superintending her fitting. It appears to be simply a very stout oak davit, the inner end secured to the boat's keelson, a little before the after thwart, the out-end projecting sufficiently far over the centre of the square tuck of the boat to allow the anchor to swing clear. The anchor is secured by a slip stopper and to keep it higher out of the water the stopper is passed under the anchor stock instead of through the ring. The davit is fitted with a compressor, which is worked by a winch. When the launch may not be re quired to carry an anchor, the davit and apparatus can all be removed, and the boat applied to any other ser vice. It appears to be a useful and serviceable invention, and will no doubt be fitted to all ships' launches. Aid lighter, Smallman master, arrived at Devonport on Sunday, with stores, from Deptford and Woolwich. Calliope, 26, to be commissioned at Devonport by Sir J. E. Home, but is to have a complement of 195 officers and men. Cambrian, 40, has been taken into No. 5 dock at De vonport, to be repaired. Express, 6, packet-brig, Lieut.-Commander Lory, has arrived at Devonport, from Falmouth, to be paid off into ordinary. Hamoaze, lighter, Wood, master, sailed from Daven port on Saturday, with stores for Pembroke and Cork. Inconstant, 36, Captain J. Shepherd, has been mus tered, inspected, and exercised, by Admiral Sir William Gage, who has expressed himself highly pleased with the efficiency of the crew, and has been towed into Hamosze to be paid off. Quail, lighter, Iveney, master, arrived at Devonport on Sunday, with stores from Pembroke. Tyne, store ship, Master Peter Wellington, master commanding, was paid advance at Devonport yesterday; atter which she was towed into the Sound by the Avon, steamer, and will proceed at once to Rio. We have already announced that the Sphynx, steam sloop, Commander Shadwell, at Siam, with Sir J. Burke, had been ashore. A private letter says:— " The Sphynx has had much sickness and mortality on board. Four Seamen and eight artillerymen had died, and there was some twenty others on the sick list. This appears to have been chiefly attributable to the fatigue that had to be endured in getting the ship off the bar, and to the lengthened time she remained on. On the 3d of October the sickness was subsiding." The Oambyua, Russian man of war corvette, having repaired damage received in the North Sea on her pas sage from Cronstadt, and refitted her rigging alongside the Dryad hulk, in Portsmouth Harbour, was towed out to Spithead on Saturday morning by the Blood hound steamer, and after receiving her powder, sailed at four r.m. on Sunday for Kamtschatka, touching at Rio. She put into Plymouth Sound on Sunday at noon, and saluted with 17 guns, which was answered by the Impregnable. THE TURKS AT PORTSMOUTH.—Tho Turkish officers belonging to the two men of war in Portsmouth harbour have visited, during the past week, nearly all the de partments in Portsmouth yard and the Clarence victual ling yard, under the guidance of Lieut. Sir Godfrey Webster, Bart,, R.N. Excepting the captain their uni form is copied from the English—viz., blue surtout coat, blue trousers, waist-belt, and sword. Their seamen have also been a good deal o❑ shore on leave. They all wear blue trousers with brown jackets, and, excepting their captain, assimilate the other parts of their dress to the English fashion, which deprives them of their otherwise picturesque appearance. They spend a good deal of money on shore. They receire veg 4 tables and some meat on board, but they brought about 200 quarters of wheat which they have ground on shore, which sup plies them with bread and flour. The wheat is of a most ordinary nature, long and horny in the corn, more like oats than wheat. The Turkish officeis have been most courteous to their English visitors, but on Fridays and Saturdays, which days are appointed to ablutions and religious observances, they are " not at home" to visitors. With Sir Godfrey Webster the officers again attended the ball at Mr. Hollingsworth's rooms on Fri day last. THE MEDITERRANEAN.—AR accident, which might have proved serious, happened on the evening of the 23d ult., to Mr. Warrington, clerk in charge of the Medusa, who was driving out to one of the Cassis (Zurrico), with Lieut. White, 44th Regiment. The horse having been Irightened, bolted, and running the cart against the wall, threw out both the gentlemen. Mr. White was stunned by the fall, but Mr. Warrington had the misfortune to fracture a small bone above the ankle, and was removed to the hospital, where he is going on well. THE ADMIRALTY PACILETS. Our correspondent sends us the following with refer ence to the inefficient Admiralty packets:— "Referring to my letter of the 12th instant, in which I mentioned that several of the Bombay passengers then in our lazaretto waiting the arrival of the Merlin packet from Marseilles had not up to to that time been allotted berths in that ship to Alexandria, I must now inform you that upon her arrival the passengers were, after some considerable trouble, accommodated by her, although by a want of management that cannot be overlooked the berths of Mr. and Mrs. Sewell and Mr. and Mrs. Trotter were appropriated to others, notwithstanding those par ties had come from Marseilles in the Merlin, and there- fore were thus compelled to remain behind. Mr. Davis, one of the Bombay passengers, had the prospect of lying on the table during the trip, which occupies at least four days. ;-‘ I cannot but consider it a duty to the public that the present Government steam-vessels, as packets on this station, should be brought to the notice of the Admiralty, and their want of accommodation, and almost of delicacy made known. Eighteen ladies are placed in one cabin, and in some of the vessels the berths in these cabins are not even shut off by a curtain! Then there are two six-berth cabins, and two of four bertha for gentlemen; and here terminates the capacity for berthing passengers, on a line where frequently fifty or sixty passengers are anxious to go forward. 'Vessels of a different class are required. So long as the present packets continuo on this station, so long will the passenger traffic, for want of proper accommodation on board, fall into foreign marines, and the inhabitants of Malta deplore the loss of a branch of trade heretofore providing bread fur hun dreds of the poorer classes."—Herald. PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY.—We are requested to con tradict a statement announcing Captain Cospatrick liaillie Hamilton as likely to commission the Amphitrite, 25-gun corvette, at this port. There is no foundation wh , itevicr for such announcement. The Sir Robert Seppings convict-ship arrived at Spit head yesterday from London to embark convicts from this port for the penal settlements. The Southampton, American line-of-packet ship, ar rived to-day from London, en route to New York. The Hogue, 60, Captain Maeclougal, has been removed from the basin and taken alongside the Blake hulk to complete refit. The Phaeton,'so, Captain Elliot, has received another foremast, and been taken into the angle dock to-day to have her bottom overhauled and broomed down. The Victory. 104, Captain F. P. Blackwood, flag of Admiral the Hon. Sir . Bladen Capel, K.C.8., Com mauder-in-Chicf, has been paid off this day. She will be re - commissioned to-morrow under the new Admiralty regulations. PLYMOUTH, SATURDAY.—It is reported that a court martial will take place here shortly to inquire into the cause of the death of Nichols, a seaman, shot on board her Majesty's frigate Inconstant, Captain John Shep pard, for attempting to make his escape from that ship when lying at California. Letters dated Port Mahon, Nov. 14, have been received here from her Majesty's ship Caledonia. She was to sail on the 28th for Barcelona and Sicily. John Stamp, seaman, 18, of Exmouth, was landed here to-day by Mr. Eddy, pilot. He belonged to the schooner Atalanta, Captain Richards, 130 tons, of Ex.mouth,which left there on the 21st of November,:in ballast, for Hartle pool. She experienced very heavy weather, and being off Robin Hood's Bay, on Sunday night, the 24th inst., between eleven and twelve o'clock, under close-reefed mainsail, jib, and staysail, wind south-west, blowing strong,was run into by the brig Seaton Sluice, of Shields, William Gibson master, from Shields, with coal for Malta. The brig, stem on, struck the schooner on her starboard bow, and the concussion having roused Stamp, who was lying asleep on the cabin floor he jumped on deck and sprang from the bulw ar k s of his own vessel to those of the brig, which then fell off, and losing sight of the schooner the brig pursued her voyage. Last night Captain Gibson put Stamp in the pil o t boat outside the Eddystone. Th roug h th e Shipwrecked Mariners' So ciety he has been franked to Starcross, which is just op posite his native place, Exmouth. John ° l ludrYs able manful of the late 0101"112.50 f/ % ~: thus accounts for thy. of that vessei:—She be longed to Mr. Sparks, of Sunderland, register 310 tons. Was commanded by Captain Woodworth, and had a crew in all of twelve handy. The Medusa left Tagan -rag above three months since, with from 2,500 to 3,000 quai ters of grain fur Limerick. On Sunday, November 10, Cape Clear thirty miles north-west, a strong gale from the northward carried away her bulwarks. All that day she was under double-reefed topsails, and until half-past eleven o'clock on Monday night, when the gale increased so that they were obliged to lower the fore topsail an d f ur l i t as we ll as t h ey cou ld . While doing so the clew of the maintopsail gave way, and the greater part of the sail was gone before the hands could fasten it to the yard. The gale continued and the ship lay under bare poles until Tuesday afternoon, at half-past four o'clock, when the second mate went aloft and re ported an island under the lee bow. The master then went up and, returning to his chart, pronounced it to be Belladavy-head, and calling the crew to the quarter deck, stated that there was no chance of saving the ship, and the only hope of rescuing their lives was by running her ashore. The gale blew violently from the north, and the foretopmaststaysail being hoisted, just paid her off, she weathered round Bella davy-head, and got into comparatively smoother water. With an effort to save the ship, the weather-anchor was let go, and eighty fathoms of chain paid out. She lay thus for about a quarter of an hour, when the sea became so violent that the chain snapped. The starboard anchor was then let go, but before suffi cient chain could be paid out, she struck on the ground, it being then halt-past six o'clock, and was immediately boarded by a heavy sea, which broke the companion, cleared decks, and .va.h,d overboard and drowned one man, George Garland, 25, a native of Falmouth. The crew then lashed themselves, as well as they were able, to the rigging, as the sea was making a fair breach over the ship. By eleven at night the tide bad nearly fallen, the jolly-boat was got out, and the captain challenged the crew as to who could swim, as he was afraid for all to go in the boat. John Gundry and Charles Connell answered the challenge, and they were put to tend the boat ropes, the sea running so high that she was forced to have one ahead and another astern. The boat got safe to shore with her living freight, but there was no volunteers to return in the boisterous sea to the forlorn seamen. After waiting in great anxiety three-quarters of an hour, and ; finding there was no intention to help them, they stripped, and drop ping under the brig's stern, providentially reached the shore. Gundry came from Cork to Plymouth by steam packet on Friday, and left for Falmouth by land on batutday, through the instrumentality of the Ship wrecked Mariners' Society. William Turner, seaman, 18, whose registered ticket is numbered 5,034, and dated London, gives the follow ing account of the loss of the fore-and-aft-rigged craft Dart. She registered 32 tons, and the master's name was Ditchem, of and from London. Lett November 18 with sand ballast, bound to Dartmouth, for a return cargo of oil; vessel leaky at the time of departure; ex perienced heavy weather in the Downs and in the Channel, which increased her leakage. On Friday night, when off Torbay, William Freit, 22, shipped from the streets in London, while on duty fell off the bow sprit head, and was drowned, owing to the pitching of the vessel, which became perfectly unmanageable; and as the sea was fast driving them to the shore, the crew, viz., Ditchem, Joseph Manning, 30, John Miller, 21, and Turner, took to the boat at one on Saturday morning, and landed at Brixham. Turner, who describes himself as from Hanover-street, West-end, walked to Plymouth, whence he was sent, through the Shipwrecked Mariner& Society, free by rail, to Paddington. MOXDAY.—Ifis Imperial Majesty's corvette Olivouza, 26, Commander Jean Soustchoff, which left Portsmouth on Friday or Saturday last, came into the Sound yester day morning, and at twelve o'clock saluted the flag of Port-Admiral Sir W. H. Gage, which was duly acknow ledged from the batteries of the Plymouth citadel. In the afternoon Mr. John Luscombe, the resident Russian Vice-Consul, paid an official visit to the captain of the corvette. Since leaving Portsmouth she has experienced very dirty weather from the southward, and as the baro metrical instruments on board indicated an increase, it was considered prudent to come into port. The Olivouza has provisions for four or five years; the first shift of wind she proceeds to Rio Janeiro, and thence she makes a lengthened voyage of discovery to Kamtschatka. WOOLWICH, DEC. 2,—The Locust steam-vessel, Lieu tenant-Commander Roger L. Curtis, is now painting, and while that work is being done her crew have been accommodated on board the Fury steam-sloop, paid off at this port on Friday last. The Royal Albert, 120 guns, has now her lower and orlop decks both finished, with the exception of a narrow space lett in the centre for the purpose of ventilation, and the vessel is altogether in so advanced a state that there would be very little difficulty, if a moderate number of extra hands were employed, to have her ready for launch ing during the next summer. The Royal Albert is 700. tons larger than any of the first• rate ships-of-war in the royal navy, and being named after his Royal Highness Prince Albert, the launch of this splendid vessel in the presence of her Majesty and all the Royal Family would make a grand and appropriate finale, were it arranged to take place in the last week previous to the close of the Great Exhibition of the Industry of all Nations in 1851. The vessel while on the stocks, in a nearly finished state for launching, would be an object of great attraction to thousands from the interior of the country who have never seen a man- 01-war, and certainly none to be com pared to: the Royal Albert for symmetry of form and great strength of the timbers when put together. DEATH OF LADY JOHN HAY. DEVONPORT, Nov. 30.—A melancholy gloom has been cast over the dockyard and neighbourhood by the almost sudden death of Lady John Hay, which took place this morning, about a quarter before seven o'clock. Her Ladyship bad been unwell for some time, and the noble and gallant commodore has recently been on six weeks' leave with her Ladyship at Brighton, for the change or air. Since their return Lady John has been a;tunded by Dr. Youge, of Plymouth, who saw her on Friday, when it was considered she was nothing worse. In fact, her Ladyship waii , ed out in the garden only a day or two before, when her domestics and friends were rejoicing that she appeared so much better. After six o'clock, however, this morning her Ladyship felt worse, and although no danger was apprehended, the surgeon of the dockyard was called in, but her Ladyship slept off into eternity, almost without pain, at the time above mentioned. Since her Ladyship's sojourn here, her generous dispo sition has been most actively and extensively mani fested. She was the president of the Female Orphan Asylum at Stoke, and a supporter of various charitable institutions. Her loss wi►l be severely felt in this neigh bourhood, and the public sympathy with her noble and gallant husband is universal. Her Ladyship's complaint was water on the chest. IRELAND. ENCUMBERED ESTATES COMMISSION. DUBLIN, DbC. I. — Fourteen additional petitions were filed up to the 28th ult., making the gross total since the commencement of operations 1,402. The last list presents such a variety in the value of rentals that the speculator, be his means what they may, can scarcely fail to find a suitable investment for his capital. For instance, there is a property in the county of Down, the annual rent of which is 321., incumbercd to the extent of about 5501. Or the more ambitious adventurer may turn his eyes to the estates of the Rev. William Waller, situate in the Queen's County, and county of Limerick, the annual rent of which is set down at 4,3741., with incumbrances to the extent of 54,985/. The estate of Mr. Hercules Ellis, in the county of L on d on d erry, producing a yearly profit rent or 1571., and subject to an annuity of 601. per annum, is charged with 4,3661. incum brahces. A property in the county of Mayo, with a rental of over 1,000/. a year, the estate of Mr. M'Don nell, is thus circumstanced :—lncumbrances—prin cipsl 14,1781. 3s. 7d. ; interest, or arrears of annuity, 1001. Legacies under the will of Joseph M'Donnell, 7,4401.; interest, or arrears of annuity, 1601. The only other property of note is that of Colonel Steele Hawthorne, who is petitioner as well as owner. The estate, which is in the county of Downe, is valued at 1,0041 per annum, while the liabilities are under 12,0001., the interest being regularly paid up to the time of Sling the petition. This latter is altogether the most desirable speculation that appears on the face of the last list of incumbered properties. SALE OF DARRYNANE ABBEY. The Evening Packet has some remarks, written in a kindly spirit, respecting the fallen fortunes of the family of the man who " but a few years ago stood among us, possessed, probably, of more individual in fluence and authority than any private person in the world." After touching gently on the decline and fall of " the Liberator," the Packet proceeds to tell this sad tale : " It was Mr. O'Connell's ambition, and a laudable one, too, provided it was controlled by prudence, to imitate in every respect a good old Irish gentleman. The hospi table gates of' Darrynane-abbey were always open, not only to the friend, the stranger, or the traveller, but even to his political opponents. And the only absolute law that controlled the guests was that which forbade the introduction at his table of political topics. And long will the cordial welcome and cheerful hospitality of the Abbey be remembered in the south of Ireland. But these pleasant days are now passed, and wo regret very much that the distress which has overtaken the landlords of Ireland has at length found its way to the halls of the Liberator. At a sheriff 's sale at Darrynane, some time since, the whole of the splendid furniture and other household goods were sold for the sum of 3641. 35. Bd., and were bought in by the National Bank of Ireland. The goods were left there pending some contemplated arrangements, but they were again recently brought to the hammer by the sheriff. The purchase of the furni ture by the National Bank has been impeached as frau dulent, and on application to the Court an issue was granted last week to try the fact by a jury. All the rest of the property will be sold as a matter of course. Alas! how are the mighty fallen! The prices at which the National Bank bought the furniture may be imagined from the fact that the entire furniture, &c., of The Liberator's room,' state bed, &c., sold for 31. Bs. 6d. PROPOSED STEAM LINE FROM LIVERPOOL TO QuEßEc.—Our American tiles contain the following notice of ibis project, which, it will be remembered, was r•romulgated in our columns some months ago. We quote a Toronto let ter:—"lsaac Buchanan, a merchant prince, and a somewhat visionary politician, is pushing forward a scheme for getting up a line of steamers to run between Montreal and Glasgow. Stock is being subscribed tbr this purpose in various parts of Canada. The proposed enterprise does not appear yet to have awakened a great deal of enthusiasm. It is, however, precisely one of those enterprises for which Udall cApitat would be readily obtainable, once it shall be deinutiatiated that it wolild pay.—Liverpool Albion, le *reek -r
