Report of Captain John Webb, on the Great Hewas Mine. Gentlemen,—This well-known tin mine needs no comment, being famous for tin. It ceased to work abut thirty-five years since. An attempt was made some four or five years since to resume working .3 , some parties of limited capital, who drained the mine to the thirty ' 'ix fathom level only, where the monthly returns were from seven to eight tons of tin per month, and embarrassing circumstances caused abandonment. The engine shaft is sunk to a 126-fathom level, giving nine levels below the thirty-six, to extend eastward into whole ground, where there is no doubt of making important discoveries. There is much till ground throughout the various levels that will Zqv work to a profit, and was not valued is the o ld workin g s ; the h ighest tribute then given was 7s. In the pound.

For a less sum, paid annually, he can assure a larger sum in case of death th an un d er th e or dinary system. 2dly. In the event of a desire to surrender his Policy he can receive in this Company, by the above example, which applies to all age 9, THREE times as much as on the ordinary system. 3rolv. In the event of inability or omission to pay, his policy remains still his propertY, of the same value as it was, though he cease his current payments for any number of years ; whereas on the ordinary system, he gets nothing. 4thly.

After he has withdrawn part one year he can, by a single payment, three years, or any time afterwards. raise his policy to a greeter or even its former amount ; and by this system he can at all times regulate his annual savings by his annual expenditure, with the facility in the bargain of having a fund to fly to in case of necessity, the same as in a bank. with this palpable advantage, however, that he gets Inte rest fur his money, and in case of death his family receive more than the amount of his savings. In ordinary Life Offices be can do I'o such thing, but his policy et once lapses or !s cancelled the moment he ceases to pay his current. premiums, and, instead of having my fend to Ay to for aid, all his hard-earned savings become forfeited to the society, and his misroriunes serve to benefit the pockets of his more fortunate co-assurers. Such a system is too emdtable and too striking to be overlooked and DEPOSIT assurance is the only system of assurance which can be universally recognised and adopted when the principles are Miner- Calls , canvassed, and its palpable benefits become widely diffased. It L o ifers greater advantages than a b'nk because it a ll ows a fa i r rate of ' interest in case withdrawal, and gives twice the amount in the hands of the Company to the representatives of the Depositor in case of death, thus combining the ADVANTAGES °;S A B ANK NCE COMPANY.

VIAY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregifaritlea and excesses, which have pro duced more misery in you.h, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all states of life, than perhaps any other class of dis eases known to modern pathologists. Long and practical experience in the treatment of these diseases has proved that there are in exist ence secret causes of self-acquired miseries and disappointed hopes in existence, traceable to certain pernicious habits, to which Nervous Debility, various .orms of insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency, Local. and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless mcdifications owe their almost entire origin.

CITY IMPROVEMENTS.—What a change 1 since the days of Chaucer and the Canterbury pilgrims; then the trading metropolis of the universe had bat few Business Houses, and a small amount of trade. Look now at the increased popula tion, the intelligence and importance of all classes, which have claims in business before unknown. The purposes for which the gigantic Establishments of E. MOSES and SON werebuilt have been fully explained, and the manner in which business is there trans acted has proved " City improvements" highly satisfactory. These improvements E. Mons and SON have carried b , yond the boundaries or the City, the same principles of business being pursued at their Braneb, NEW OXFORD-STRELI, corner Of HART-STREET. The money saved by individuals and families by patronising each Branch of E, MosEs and Sores business has been regarded as the greatest im ro,ement of all. The telegraphic wires, which will soon connect Peach part of the City, is an improvement in the way of dispatch, and is illustrative of the seed and correctness these to measure o:ready made—for Waterproof Clothing or the easiest Paletots—for Juvenile Clothing, in the newest styles—for Hosiery, and most fashionable Sporting Dress—for Overcoats.

This Company is formed for the purchase of land and development of the mineral resources of the Isla-id of Ceylon. The fact that Ceylon abounds with mineral wealth has been now ascertained beyond any doubt. The Island of Ceylon (w.th a population of about one million and a half) is known to possess a most favourable climate, and has long been famed for its valuable productions. It can be reached within thirty days from this country. The fhcility thus afforded fur the extension of ifs trade, the increased demand and enhancement of value which will be sect , red for its varied products will, without entering upon any detail, at once suggest itself to the most ordinary observer. Its commerce with England may be stated as in a state of tran sition, as there ern be no question that the present year will exhibit a large increase. The affairs of the Company will be managed by parties who have had considerable experience, and are well ac quainted with the country and its people. Lands, known to the Directoes of this Company to contain the best minerals, are obtainable by them at a very moderate rate in lee simple, and arrangements have been made for an efficient staff, to proceed forthwith to Ceylon to take the necessary steps for the immediate working Ot the Company. The minerals consist of Gold, Silver, Copper, Iron, and Plumbago ' to a large extent, within a few feet of the surface. The facilities for working the Mines and the convenience of transit, coupled with the fact that labour can be had at a rate cheaper then in any other country, form In themselves elements so highly favoirable to the prospects of the Company, as to insure certain and permanent success. The Directors desire to draw attention to the following, taken from "Copies of extracts of correspondence between her Majesty's Government and parties In Ceylon, vide Blue Book, page 15, printed by order of the House of Commons, 21st July, 1847 :"—" Persons the best informed entertain little doubt that the vast mineral re sources of the country hitherto undeveloped, but which are known extensively to abound,' will eventually present no inconsiderable feature in the export trade of the country." EXTRACT TAKEN FROM REPORTS OF SIR J. E. TENNANT, LATE COLONIAL SECrETARY OF CEYLON. "Ceylon is rich in minerals. Metallic products comparatively unnoticed in the interior." EXTRACT FROM REPORT BY DR. URE. " Upon the analytical examination of certain samples of stephuret of copper and of copper pyrites from Ceylon, placed in my hands by Mr. Galbraith, as imported for The Ceylon Land and Mining Com pany,' find that these specimens are exceedingly rich, and vary in composition. Some of them, like that marked No. 22, from Ceylon, contain neatly • two-thirds (sixty-six per cent.) of copper for one- third of sulphur.

" The minor copper ores contain 26 and 38 per cent. • (Signed) "WHITE AND Du MAITRIER. "5, Barge-yard, Bucklersbury, Feb. 26, 1853." The Directors do not deem it necessary in this advertisement to offer other equally important extracts from reports and other docu ment s in their possession, but they may be inspected on application at the Offices of the Company. The oteginals of the above, as also maps of the island, with speci mens of the ores, can be seen and prospectuses had, at the tem,sorary Offices of the Compaey,23, New Broad-street.

The extraordinary recoils of this application may be briefly noted in a few of their most promi nent leotard, as the following :—All sharp edges are avoided ; no springs wires, or fastenings are required ; a greater increased free dom of suction is suppli^d ; a natural elasticity hitherto wholly en attainable: and a fit, perfected with the most unerr nq accuracy, are , secured, while from the so..ness and flexibility of the agent cm ployed, the greatest support is given to the adjo'ning teeth when loose or rendered tender by th e absorp'ion of the bums. The acids of the mouth exert so agency on the chemically-prepared White India-rubber, and as it is a non - conductor, fluids of any temperature may with thorough comfort be imbibed and retained in the mouth, all unpleasantness of smell or taste being at the same time wholly provided against by the peculiar nature of its preparation.

INTERESTING TO NAVIGATORS.—THE FALKLAND IS LANDS.—Under this head we find in a recent nurahelr: of the New York Express the following remarks. in refer ence to the Falkland Islands, now attract& so much attention in this country because of their. !needing eli gibility for purposes of transportation, when the dis patch of convicts to Australia shall cease. The im portance of these islands to Great Britain in a com mercial sense is strengthened from the fact of the rapidly increasing number of Australian vessels coming home by way of Cape Horn ; and, we believe, it is the inten tion of the proprietors of some of our great lines of steamers to establish a coal depot there, in which case there will necessarily be a vast augmentation to the advantages already specified by our American cotemporary, namely :—" For the interest of American and other shipowners, whalers, and all other vessels, it cannot be too generally made known that the Falk land Islands, off the coast of South America, many good ryclass may and d w na a f ff e o h rd arb a o n urs e , x a c t el w le h n i t oh s v ta e t s i s o o n ls , o w f i e t v h e find supplies. Ships proceeding to and from the East Indies, China, or from the Pacific coast and Polynesia, round the Cape of Good Hope or Cape Horn, will find, at the Falklands, the means, in ordinary cases of damage, of repair, supplies of provisions, &c., in short, all such stores as are required by merchant vessels. There are no port or Custom-house charges, whereas, all the South American continental ports, whether in Brazil or on the River Plate, the charges are very high, 'delays and vexa tions frequent, labour and the articles required for repairs exorbitant. But the most serious objections to the Brazilian ports, is the prevalence of a malignant yellow fever, particularly dangerous to the ship's com panies, on board vessels in the harbours. From these reasons, as well as from the conveniences and facilities afforded by the authorities, and by the new settlements at these islands, the number of vessels touching there has been very much increased, and will, no doubt, con tinue to increase in every succeeding year." INTERESTING NATIONAL MESIORIAL.—There has just been completed on Sonthsea Beach, Portsmouth, a very interesting memorial of the great Nelson. It consists of a superstructure of granite surmounted by an anchor, which belonged to Nelson's ship, the Victory, and which has kindly been given up for the purpose by the Board of Ordnance.

DIABOLICAL MURDER IN SOUTHWARK. • A murder of a diabolical nature has just been dis covered in the neighbourhood of .Gravel-lane, South wark, which has created great excitement in the locality. From a strict inquiry, it appears that about eight o'clock on Monday night last, as a little girl named Hannah Morley, residing at No. 6, Bear-court, Gravel lane, opened the street-door, she discovered a large bundle lying on the steps. She raised an alarm, and on the wrapper, which consisted of a flannel petticoat, being removed, the body of a young female child was found to be inside. The attention of Sergeant Golden, 7 M, was called, and the body was removed to the workhouse, in Marlborough -street. Information was forwarded by Mr. ICibblewhite, sum moning officer and parochial beadle of Christchurch, to Mr. W. Carter, the coroner for East Surrey, who gave directions for an autopsy to be made prior to the inves tigation. In consequence of this order, yesterday Dr. F. C. Jones, No. 174, Blackfriars-road, proceeded to make a post-mortem, examination of the body. He found the lungs of a bright and natural colour, and that they floated when placed in water, also that the left lung crepitated, and on the right were several dark spots, indicative that there the air cells, though formed, were not expanded, and which left no doubt in his mind that the child had lived some hours after birth. The body was fully deve loped, and the umbilical cord was left about a foot long, and not tied. The tongue, which protruded, was black, as were also the lips and nose. There was a contused wound on the right temple the size of a shilling, and on reflecting,the scalp, eccymose blood was found under the wound. Dr. Jones says he was confident that the wound was the result of a blow inflicted before death. The case is in the hands of the 'police, and from the statement of a man named Henry Rowland, who lives at No. 3, Bear-court, it appears that a few seconds before he heard the alarm on Monday night, a woman came to his door, and asked if a Mr. Bi-aaley lived there. He answered in the negative, and at the same time observed a large bundle under the woman's shawl. She went away, and hearing the alarm, he ran into the court, and ob served the only person there, excepting the inhabitants, to be the woman who had just before left the place, who was making a speedy retreat from the court without the bundle which she previously carried. Thi s aroused a suspicion, and the woman was traced, and found at No. 8, Griffiths-rents, Bermondsey -street. She was conveyed to the station, where she gave the name of Margaret Duggan. The case not appearing suffi ciently strong against her, she was set at liberty, and watched home by the police, and up to la s t n i g h t she was under the surveillance of the officers, who are making every inquiry, incognito, to bring the guilty and unnatu ral offenders to justice. It is expected that for more safety the woman Duggan will be apprehended and placed in safe keeping this morning until the result of the inquiry is made known. There are strong circumstances of a grave and suspici ous there are nature against Margaret Duggan. The one is that she had previously cohabited with the man Braille lives at No. 1, Bear -court ; and the other, that 3:3 at present two single females living with her t are at rents, one of whom left her situation a sh rtatimGriffte since, cough. the pretence that she was sufferingofrom a severe last night the warrant had not been received by cou u g p h. to , will b li e ib h b e l l e d w to hi - t m e, or an ro d w iat ftiesrneoxop:cted that the inquest Sir Archibald Alison, on being created a baronet, by the Earl of Eglinton and Winton.

According to a minute firon f _Ale Governor-General dated in April last, it appears Dr. O'Shaughnessy, the Deputy Assay, Master at the Calcutta Mint, has constructed 82 miles of experimental lines with such economy aid success as to induce the Court of Directors in London to determine upon the formation of new lines to the extent of upwards of 3,000 miles, to connect the various seats of Government, the three Presidencies, the North-Western Provinces, and lie Punjaub. In the report of Dr. O'Shaughnessy, which has been transmitted to the India House, the full details are given of the methods of construction he has adopted, and which Lord Dalhousie describes as remarkable alike for their simplicity, cheapness, and perfect efficacy. The works already completed in volve lengthened river crossings (the Huldee and the Ifooghly), and for these portions a gutty percha covered wire, secured in the angles of a chain cable, is employed, and is found to afford complete protection against the grappels of the heavy native boats which incessantly pass ma cho down, and are o ft en compelled to drag their rs. It is, however, in the laud portions of the lines that Dr. O 'Shaughnessy' s methods present the greatest divergence from any that have been hitherto used either in England or America. Ho uses no wire whatever, but employs instead a thick iron rod three eighths of an inch in diameter, and weighing one ton to the mile, while for supports bamboo sticks are adopted in place of the ordinary posts. The advantag es gained by the rods are immunity from fracture by gusts of wind or ordinary mechanical violence, and the absence of any necessity for insulation, owing to the free passage which the mass of metal gives to the electric currents, while in point of expense they do not involve any increase of im portance. They cost 101. per mile, and 21. 10s. for welding ; and this, it is stated, falls far below what would be expended on the winders, insulators, zincing, and straining posts absolutely necessary on a wire line. In experiments with wires they have been found to be broken by every north-wester, while in the hurricane of 1851 not a single rod was damaged. The fact that they cannot bebroken or bent withoutgiving great trouble, and requiring the use of smiths tools, is likewise of the utmost importance in a country where the lines must not only traverse districts where they cannot be protected against idlers, but also wildernesses inhabited only by wild beasts. As regards the value of the bamboo, as corn pared with the ordinary timber posts, the results are no less striking. It is _44 so durable • but, allowing, for the necessary repl acement, i ts costis oil little Mere than " -- a'fifth of that for posts. It was at first employed only -with a temporary view; but the way in wltic.l it was found to resist the severest storm s , which up roo t e d trees and le ve ll e d h ouses, soon led to the conviction that it was superior to any other material. In the hurricane of 1851, already alluded to, and which caused un paralleled damage at Calcutta, not a single bamboo on the lines was broken. "It was the realisation of the fable of the bulrush and the oak ; the bam boo bent slightly to the hurricane, and rose erect when its violence had ceased." With regard to the instruments used at the stations, it was found that in a country like India, unless they could be reduced to such a condition of simplicity that when deranged they could be set right by mere school-boys, and with out the aid of a mechanic, regular and sustained corre spondence would be totally impracticable. Accordingly, after trying and discarding every English and American plan, and being reduced almost to despair, Dr. O'Shaugh nessy contrived a little single needle horizontal tele graph, which has since been in use at all the stations, and which works in all weathers witho u t d anger of in terruption. "It sometimes," he says, " becomes dis ordered, but it is changed, or replaced, or cured' in a few seconds by the signallers on duty ; and, if totally destroyed, is but the loss of 65." A battery of 12 to 20 pieces of platinum wire with zinc plates suffices to work the lines through the heaviest rain and most violent storms, and-the total cost of a complete set of instru ments of every kind for each station, comprising battery, reverser, telegraph, and alarm, is less than 101. The outlay for construction of the lines themselves, in dependently of river-crossings has been at the rate of 421. per mile ; but, with the experience obtained, it would, for the future, not exceed 351. per mile for a single, and 551. for a double line. The revenue thus far derived from the 82 miles opened has exceeded the highest expectations. The monthly cost amounts to 921., and this has been almost exactly met by the re ceipts, so that the whole of the Government correspond ence has been conducted without charge. Under these circumstances, Dr. O'Shaughnessy considers that a double line along the valley of the Ganges to Alla habad, and rid Agra to Bombay, would yield a large profit, especially if the rate of charge were low and uniform, not exceeding 2s. for each message of 16 words, whatever might be the distance through which it is trans mitted. In the view thus stated Lord Dalhousie ap pears perfectly to concur, and he has expressed the " intense desire he has felt, ever since the first report on the subject was submitted to him, to see the main line of electric telegraph between Calcutta and Peshawur, Bombay and Calcutta, and Madras and Calcutta, fairly commenced before he quits India during the present year." This desire, it is to be inferred, will be fulfilled, the Court of Directors having, about four months back, given all the necessary orders here for the preparation and shipment of the materials for lines of 3,150 miles, leaving it to the Governor-General in Council to decide upon the precise routes that should be adopted.—Tinteit.
