By the old surement, the length (less 3-sths plied by the breadth, and the breadth, and dividedby 97, gave the register, • tonnage. By an act passed in 1844, and amended in 1845, a rule was adopted based on the internal measurement of 11 breadths, and four depths, taken at 3 sections, the divisor 3,500 giving the registered tonnage. It was contended that the present register of particulars, by omitting the depth, gave less information than the old register ; that calculations of tonnage deduced from internal measure ment must show discrepancies of 10 or even 15 per cent. between the computed tonnage of timber and of iron ships, of the same size, or external hulk ; therefore it had become necessary to introduce a method of compu tation deduced from both internal and external measure ment, so as to combine the capacity for stowage, and the weight or the load, and the displacement, the prin ciple being to ascertain the external bulk and:internal space in cubic feet, and to deduce from the mean of these, by the use of a factor 30, 31, or 32, a register of tonnage approximating to the old law, chiefly for statis tical purposes, the external and internal dimensions• in cubic feet giving the only correct definition .of the size, capacity, and resistance of a vessel. at our a~ re" s eY de. ,ot goo' er barrel ansacted Tuesday. meal, or sda a t the 3 - , the 13th day of December, 1853, at 12 o'clock at Noon e,„„. aid Chambers, is ap 7 pointed for hearing and adjudicatinz '"). the elithns.Dated this 7th day of No ve a mber, 1853.

The Lord Mayor of London, is not the first citizen of London. In point of .fact, we know that any emi nent merchant who may at the 'present moment be carrying on his business in the city would consider his nomination to the office a mere insult. The constituency by which the Lord Mayor is ap pointed does not consist of the leading citizens of London, but of knots of petty tradesmen, well drilled into effective electioneering platoons by skilful managers. The system which he is called upon to administer is one which has ceased to command the slightest atom of respect—it is synonymous in public opinion with corruption, prejudice, and self-interest in the most abject form. To render the Lord Mayor's show of yesterday at all agreeable to the apprehension of the spectators it would have been necessary that the three Com missioners now sitting in inquiry upon the abomi nations of the Corporation should have formed part of the display. They should have passed in their three plain carriages next in order to the rolling gewgag which contained the city's ruler for the current year, so that the bane and antidote might have been present at the same moment to the public eye. _ THE NORTH- WEST PASSAGE.

Sin,—The interest evinced by the public and yourself in the recent completion of the geogra phical question of the North-West Passage induces me to think that you may be disposed to give in sertion to the accompanying brief sketch of the proceedings of Lieutenant Cresswell from the time he left the Investigator, in Mercy Bay, till he arrived in England as the bearer of Capt. M'Clure's despatches. This sketch is, I believe, necessary to complete the record of these events up to the pre sent time.—l am, Sir, your obedient servant, WILLIAM EDWARD PARRY, Rear-Admiral. Northbrook-house, Bishop's-Waltham, Nov. 7. A delightful day, and a better attendance than on Tuesday, made the second day at Aintree somewhat more cheerful. There was, however, nothing in the speculation on "the great event" either in London or in the Lancastrian metropolis of commerce to call for fur ther comment than will be found in our, of necessity, hasty report.

But, if we turn from the inner meaning of this vulgar show to its mere goutward presenta tion, we find the upholsterer in charge signally in fault. If it means anything, it means not what exists to-day, but what existed three, or twice three, centuries ago. If we are to have fooling at all, let us have what in Shakspearian phrase would be called " glorious fooling,"—good old antiquarian fooling. The Lord Mayor's show is not one of those pomps which can be made to accommodate itself to the times in which we live. When Lord Aberdeen accepted the seals of office, which were symbolical of the fact that the interests of the British empire had been intrusted to his keeping, no one thought of his being paraded through London in fine clothes and a gilt coach. When the Lord Mayor is hitched into the chaii of a police magistrate for a period of twelve months, during which time he must rely upon his very in telligent and gentlemanlike clerk for the law which it is the chief object of his office to dispense, one would think that the Thames had been set on fire.

VERY Lady in the land, who is desirous of 4 having the colours of all kinds of Fabrics maintained after wa'thisg, should instruct her servants and laundress to use CREWS'S RINSING LIQUID. It effectually prevents colours in every de scription of material from running in washing, and secures brightness and permanence to the most ordinary material and fugitive colours. The Proprietor is certain that when this article is once used, washing will not be conducted without it. Its cost is trifling ; tw, my drops of the Liquid are sufficient for one gallon of rinsing water. The trouble and vexation saved will be very great. Articles need not be picked to pieces before being washed, for the liquid in sures their drying clean and uniform in colour, under all circum stances. ATk i NSON and COMPANY, CABINET V, I tP,II„,,.

IL • The following testimonia' is another proof of the great efficacy of this medicine : " Winchmore Hill, Middlesex, April 16, 1851 " Sir,—ln consideration of the great benefit I have derived from taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards of nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion, but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me groat relief; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it. "I am, Sir, yours respectfully, THOMAS PROVINCE. " To Mr. T. Prout, 229, Strand, London.

London, &c., &c. VE. AY be consulted, personally, or by letter, on v the various disorders of the nervous and generative system, resulting from juvenile irregularities and excesses, which have pro luced more misery in youth, degradation in manhood, and prema ture decay at all stages 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 forms of Insanity, Unhappy and Unfruitful Marri ages, Impotency, Local and Constitutional Weakness, and their endless modifications owe their almost entire origin. It is absolutely necessary that all men should know that there are principles of personal management which cannot be violated without incurring grievous penslties, and when wisdom and regret succeed the heyday of inconsiderate self-indulgence, how these penalties may be mitigated, how the sting of their bitterness may be removed, and how the evil and its consequene es may be avoided, and above all, that there is scarcely any degree of physical infirmity or innctional derangement to which the timely aid of science cannot apply a cure DOCTOR LA'MERT has for a long series of years been engaged in an extensive practice in the treatment of these delicate com plaints, and is the only legally qualified Physician who, regardless of the taunts and envy of thehypocritical and mock-modest, has had the confidence, thrortah the medium of -the public press, to direct attention to these enormous evils, from which no grade of society is tree. In selecting this department of practice, he has been amply roan arded by the great success that has attended his efforts in the treatment of these cases, which are too generally confided to the care of unqualified and ignorant empirics, who, with their pirated nurlications, .assumed foreign names and titles, and pretended virtues of their patent nostrums, have Inflicted serious injury on those who have been induced to place faith in their pretensions.

Perry, Surgeons, are in attendance, daily, at 19, Berners-street, Oxford•street, Lon don, from Eleven till Two, and Five to Eight; on Sunday from 'Eleven to One, The French steamer which left Constantinople on the 15th of October reported the return from Constantinople to Besika on the 7th of the Gomer French steam-frigate, bearing the flag of Rear- Admiral Barbier de Tinan, second in command, followed on the Bth by the Mogador steam-frigate. Of the British fleet the only vessels remaining at Constantinople were the Retribution steam-frigate and the Wasp steam corvette, whilst the Spitfire steam-surveying vessel was employed sounding off the Prince's Island, in the sea of Marmora ; the French line-of-battle ship Friedland had moved no further down than Gallipoli. At five o'clock on the 26th the Caradoc steam-vessel, despatched on the 23d from Constantinople, arrived at Malta with a communication of importance from Lord Strat ford de Redcliffe for Lord Clarendon, said to relate to a note to hand from Vienna on the 22d, with which, after hurriedly coaling, the Caradoc pro ceeded at 9.30 of the 26th to Marseilles, where she arrived on the 28th of October. On the 21st the Sampson arrived at Besika Bay from Constantinople, bearer of firmans from the Sultan for the combined fleets to pass up the Dar danelles, and accordingly, at three a.m. on the 22d, the Sampson towing the Albion, the Retribution the Vengeance, the Gomer the Henri Quatre 4 and the Mogador Owing the Jupiter, started from Be sika Bay for the Bosphorus ; at five a.m. the Na poleon took the - Ville de Paris in tow, and "walked" away with her in such a way as to excite general admiration. By eight the French were well away, and the Britannia in tow of the . Furious was just leaving her anchorage, followed by the Rodney in tow of the Firebrand, the Tiger with the Trafalgar, the Bellerophon, with the Inflexible, and the Are thusa and Sans Pareil in tow of the Niger, which was some time getting her screw to work. The wind, which had been increasing from daybreak, blew at the same time very fresh from the north ward, which, being right ahead, no ship got to her destination save the Ville de Par* which reached the inner Castles at about nine a.m., so well did the Napoleon do her work. Of the first detach ment, the Vengeance and Jupiter reached the an chorage destined for the British fleet, whilst the Albion and the Henri Quatre were obliged to come to an anchor below it. The other French ships, with the exception of the Valmy, brought up in the Dardanelles further down ' • and as the Charle magne made no progress with the Valmy, and the towing-cables having parted, she proceeded with out her, leaving the Valmy outside the Strait, not more than four or five miles from her former an chorage. The Britannia could not contrive to get further ahead than just below the outer castle of Europe, and the several other ships anchored near the Valmy. Had the Firebrand made better pro gress with the Rodney, some of the ships following might have done better, but 'these having to keep station with a slow coach ahead, they had no op portunity of showing their power. With the exception of the Albion, Vengeance, Sampson, and Retribution, English, and Henri Quatre, Jupiter, Gomer, and Mogador, French, proceeding right up the Bosphorus, the intention was for the French to ancho r off Nagara, and the British below Chenab Kalessi, where Sir William Parker anchored on the occasion of the last visit of the English fleet to the Dardanelles. When the Caradoc passed down the Dardanelles on the 23d, the ships had topmasts struck and upper yards down, as the weather was very tempestuous. Thus the passage up the Dardanelles of the combined fleets, so long talked of, has been at length rea lised, and every future move will be watched most anxiously. Why the whole combined force, or at least a larger one than four line-of-battle ships and as many steam-frigates, should not have at once proceeded to the Bosphorus, cannot be understood by the Turks, whose patience has been sadly tried during the last four months, and cannot be ex pected to last much longer. It will be the height of injustice to accuse them of fanaticism should any untoward recontre with the enemy occur, and which is very probable. The line of Ottoman merchant steamers running between Constanti nople and Batoum, calling at the intermediate ports of Sinope, Imboli, Samsoon, and Trebizond,- have been all armed to enable them to make re . sistance, and, if necessary, to act offensively as well as defensively, and six Ottoman frigates are cruising off Varna. Should the Russians move from Sebastopol a naval force, not alto gether superior to them, there is enthusiasm enough amongst the Turks to urge these latter to try their fortune by sea as well as by land. A body of volunteers from the easternmost parts of the empire have reached the camp at Schumla, armed with bows and arrows, in the unerring use of which they are notoriously expert. Before the departure from Besika Bay of the combined fleets, that of France had been reinforced by the Serieuse,frigate and the Mercure brig-of-war, and that of England had received by the Maltese brig San Paulo, and - dab English brig Zephyr, a timely supply of victualling stores from the Malta dockyard, whose arrangements under this head have been very excellent. The Leander frigate, which arrived at Malta from Plymouth on. the 24th of October, took in a further supply, with which she left for the Dardanelles on the 28th, to be fol lowed very shortly by the Queen and London ships of-the-line, Leoward, Valorous, and Vulture steam corvettes, and Agamemnon screw line-of-battle ship, all of which were soon looked for at Malta to reinforce the fleet. The Fury steam corvette reached Malta at half-past 4 p.m.. on the 31st of October from Marseilles with overland despatches from London, with which, after coaling, she left at half-past 7 on the same night for the Dardanelles and Constantinople. The Ardent, with despatches from the same quarter, received at Malta by the Vectis, Peninsular and Oriental Company's steam packet, on the night of the 29th, and by the Indus, belonging to the same company, on the afternoon of the 30th, left on the morning of the last men tioned day, likewise for the Dardanelles and Con stantinople. The Levant steamer, leaving Constantinople on the 25th of October (two days later than the Cara doe) was then hourly looked for at Malta, and would proceed on her voyage to Marseilles on the 2d of November.—Chronicle. THE LORD MAYOR'S SHOW. Three centuries ago the Strand was an open country road. There was a line of noblemen's houses on the southern, and a loose array of smaller habitations on the northern side. On one hand, as you travelled along this country road, there was always something to be seen very much like the wall of Northumberland-house in its present condi tion ; on the other were public-houses, with signs, and the dwellings of petty shopkeepers, after the fashion of modern Brantford. Temple-bar existed. not as yet ; for the present ugly structure was built by Wren after the great fire. In former days there were only on this spot posts, rails, and a chain. Now, along such a road as this, and in times when such a road existed, we can readily enough conceive that a pompous procession, such as the one with which London was yesterday in fested, might have been a very striking spectacle. Your Anglo-Saxon is not a. very imaginative crea ture, and it might have required so magnificent a show to convince him that he was absolutely wit nessing the highest possible display of worldly grandeur. The men in armour, the uncouth giants, the glory of the civic dignitaries, must have im pressed upon his mind the conviction that Lon don's Lord Mayor was indeed in the act of passing by. What Easter Sunday is to the devout Roman Catholic, what a butter-feast is to the well-trained disciple of Buddha, such was Lord Mayor's day to the Londoner in the days of Henry VIII., whether he assisted at the glowing ceremony by land, or in his bar ge on th e s il very surface of the river Thames. Matters since then are much changed. Outwa r d pomp an d di sp l ay require every circ ums t ance of acknowledged and indisputable desert to render them palatable to the taste of the indifferent spectator. It was a Wel lington who added dignity to the riband which shone upon his breast —the riband could do but little for the honour of the conqueror of the Penin sula and of Waterloo. The mere upholstery work of glory is gone out of fashion, and the attempt to recal it is as vain as it would be to aim at the re introduction of periwigs. But, even in cases of this kind, opinion observes certain distinctions. Take the instance of any of our great Orders of Knighthood, and upon the muster-rolls of any of them there will always be found names which are synonymous with great achievements in the civil or military career. The high deserts of the few carry off and excuse the insignificance of the many. The opening of Parliament by the Queen is still a great sight. It is no slight event that an assembly which by its decisions may affect the course of history should again be convened. The case is entirely dif ferent with the inauguration of the magisterial year of the Lord Mayor of London. The whole aspect of I English society is changed since that event was one . of public insignificance. Whatever meaning it may the gathering of the rabble upon Lord Mayor's day is, that it would be prudent to avoid giving cause for any such assemblage in days to come. And then the feast ! The Lord Mayor's dinner is as great a delusion as the Lord Mayor's show. It would be difficult to pass on it a severer criticism. What a waste of money for what a result ! Many thousand pounds sterling, for which it would be difficult to find a worse use, are sacrificed, in order that some hundreds of people, who might have dined comfortably at home, may dine badly or not at all. The old display, which at least amused our anti quaries is at an end, and in its place we have painted women and allegorical gold-diggers. Alder man Sydney, or Lord Mayor Sydney, was very heartily greeted by the populace yesterday, not for any peculiar veneration of the man or of the office he filled, but simply as a theatrical manager might have been who had indulged the mob with a circus display. The shivering woman, drawn by six white horses, who represented Justice, was no doubt a great effort. Poor thing ! how cold she looked ; The emblematic figure of California, too, was well imagined as an appeal to popular sympathies ;, but for our parts we think Batty does these .things bet ter in the circus. We trust that by the help of her Majesty's Commissioners this may be the last public exhibition on Lord Mayor's day. It is an undeni able nuisance to the city, and redounds but little to the honour and glory of its chief officer or its inha bitants..—Times. NA V AL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 9. The fleet at Spithead has received orders to be ready for sea by the 11th, but no sailing orders have been issued. The Amphion, 34, screw, Captain Key, was paid wages at Spithead yesterday. The Rhadamanthus steam transport, Master Com mander Belam, steamed into the factory basin yester day to land the machinery of the Caesar, 90. We are happy to say there are no more new cases of cholera on board the Bremen ship Ann. M. Vanden berg, the Consul for the Hanseatic Towns at this port, has taken every precaution to prevent the spread of the malady. Large quantities of chloride of lime have been injected into the ship. The Topaze, Belgian Royal steam vessel, which brought the Belgian Royal family to this port on Sunday night, left for Ostend at 5 o'clock this morning. The Tribune, 30, screw steam-vessel, Captain the Hon. S. T. Carnegie, tried her speed again to-day at the measured mile. WOOLWICH, Nov. 9. APPOINTMENTS. Lieutenant William F.

Two serjeants, two corporals, and 50 privates of the Woolwich division, were marched to the Royal Dock yard station of the North Kent Railway, headed by the band of the division, for the purpose of being conveyed by railway to Portsmouth, to do duty there until they embark for service at sea. The detachment was under the command of Lieutenant Holland, who will return to Woolwich to resume his duty. THE LOSS OF THE ROSE STEAM -CRUISER. - -We have already announced the loss of the Rose. We extract the following details from the Charlotte Town Islander, Oct. 10 :—" The steamer Rose, engaged by the Admi ralty for the protection of the fisheries around Prince Edward's Island, under the command of Lieut. John Jenkins, R.N., left Tracadie Harbour—where she had been coaling—on the evening of the 28th of September, bound to Charlotte Town, to join the senior officer on the station. About midnight a strong breeze sprang up from the eastward, gradually increasing in violence as the night advanced. At 2 o'clock a.m. altered course to ESE ; gale increasing. At 4 a.m., finding ship could not make headway against the storm, tried to wear, but the ship being unmanageable under steam, forestaysail and trysail were, set to pay her head off, sails im me di a t e l y sp li t, and a heavy sea at the same time carried away all her port sponsons and her paddle-box, with a ton of coal on deck. In con sequence of this it was 7 o'clock before her head was brought to the wind. They then steered before the wind to prevent the ship being swamped an d all hands lost —theltressel at this time on a westerly course, with a tremendous sea and heavy squalls of wind. At 10 a.m. a sea struck her stern and stove in dead lights, flooded the cabin and gun-room. At 1 the land was sighted, but owing to the rain and heavy spray, could not make it out—altered course to WNW, to sun for Richmond Bay, at same time threw two large brass guns and all the heavy moveables on deck overboard. Finding ves sel would not steer, and that she broached-to, they hoisted staysail, which split immediately, the vessel being now quite unmanageable, in consequence of the heavy sea, and making much water. The vessel drift ing bodily on the land, they tried to get her head on for the shore, but all head sails being blown away, let go kedge anc h or over stern, to bring her head to the wind, which having been done, cut hawser and steered for the land, the ship at this time being half full of water. At two o'clock, while running before the wind, the connecting-rod of engine broke, and the engine stopped, the second sea carrying away wheel, funnel, and steam-pipe, - which were all washed overboard. About ten minutes after the vessel struck on a reef, at the east entrance of the harbour of Rustico, the sea making a complete breach over her. After striking heavily for 15 minutes she became quite stationary, with four feet water in her hold, a total wreck. That with great difficulty all hands effected a landing on Rus tico Island, having first succeeded in landing a line, and by means of it and a dingy they were landed sepa rately one by one. The vessel has since been con demned and advertised for sale. The crew, consisting of 4 officers and 29 men, with the materials they suc ceeded in saving, crossed the island in 18 carts, arrived at Charlotte Town, and embarked on board Calypso, 18, Captain Forbes, in port, and sailed for Halifax on Thursday morning, the 6th October." " Before Captain M'Clure left the Investigator for Melville Island, he arranged for Lieutenant Gurney Cresswell to follow with the more sickly part of the crew. The party consisted of Mr. Wynniett (mate, now lieutenant, invalided home), Mr. Piers (assistant -sur geon), Mr. Miertsching (Esquimaux interpreter), and 24 petty officers, marines, and seamen. " April 15th, at 5.30 a.m.—They left the ship, the remaining part of the officers and ship's company giving them three hearty cheers. There was one sick man on the sledge from the time they left the ship until their arrival at the Resolute. The wind blew strong from the westward, with snow-drift ; but, as all the requisite ar rangements had been made for their start, Lieutenant Cresswell did not postpone it. At 6 p.m. they sighted the eastern land of the bay, and found by it that they had made a good course. Shortly after leaving the ship Corporal Farquharson and Joseph Tacey broke down, the former having pains.in the chest, the latter suffering from a fall shortly before leaving the Investigator. They encamped on Point Back, about 10 miles from the ship. On the 16th they started at 6 a.m., but travelling proved very heavy, and the men already showed signs of weak ness. The 17th they rounded Cape Hamilton. The ice had been thrown up by tremendous external pres sure,i between which and the land they bad to drag the sledges. To accomplish this they were obliged to double-man the sledges--taking two over at a time. As soon as they Sound a chance of pushing their way through the hummocky barrier that lined the shore, they struck off on to the sea-ice, and encamped about two miles from the land. "April 22d.—They sighted Melville Island. Their daily journeys varied ; sometimes the sun gave them a look to cheer them on their way ; but, generally speak ing, the weather was gloomy ; the men suffering from weakness and fatigue, and the difficulty of drawing the sledges increasing from day to day. The ice was ex tremely rough and hummocky. One day they came upon a large field of ice from which the wind had blown away the snow, and the weight of the sledges appeared comparatively nothing. They were passing rapidly along, when one man was found to be missing. It was a poor fellow who had showed symptoms of mental im becility, but until then had travelled with the rest. The detention was grievous, but unavoidable. They sent back to searck for him, and found him in a pond of melted snow. From that time great difficulty was ex perienced in getting him along. He was always throw ing himself on the snow to lie down. They dared not put him on one of the sledges, as already the weight was great enough for their enfeebled party, with one man totally unable to walk and their needful baggage. "April 30th. - --At 6.30 a.m., just as they were beginning their day's march, two men were seen coming towards the tents from the eastward. They proved to be Mr. Pim and a seaman, with a sledge and dogs ; he had been sent out by Captain Kellett to assist them in, and land some stores in Winter harbour. He was much surprised to find this party so far advanced in their journey. Lieutenant Cresswell wished him to land the things, as they did not require any immediate assistance. At this time Charles Anderson, being unable to walk any further, was taken on the sledge. Notwithstanding this extra weight, they made excellent progress, the men being in high spirits on the strength of being so near the Resolute. "May 2d.—They started at 11 p.m., and arrived on board the Resolute at 4 a.m. on the following day. Captain Kellett and M'Clure met them on the floe. Captain Kellett gave them the heartiest welcome. The journey from the Investigator was made in 16 days, the distance 170 miles. "The day following (May 4) Captain M'Clure set off on his return to his ship, and was accompanied by the surgeon of the Resolute, with instructions to examine into the health of the crew ; Captain Kellett, as senior officer, having determined that, if 20 ablebodied men volunteered to remain with Captain M'Clure, that daunt less officer should be at liberty to stay by his ship and attempt to bring her through, should the season render it possible. was Captain Kellett's strenuous wish that a party of the Investigator's men should go on to the North Star, at Beechy Island ; but as, out of 24, only two were not affected with scurvy, he was obliged to aban don the design. Captain Kellett placed the Investi gator's despatches in the hands of Lieutenant Cresswell, with directions to prOceed to the North Star in com pany with Mr. Roche (mate), with a party of 11 men, the boatswain of the Resolute, and Lieutenant Wynniett, of the Investigator. "On the 13th of May they saw two musk oxen. Lieutenant Cresswell and Mr. Roche went in pursuit. They wished to have shot only the cow, but having wounded her, the bull would not allow them to approach her ; they, therefore, had to shoot him also. The sledge being very heavily laden, they could not take more than the hind-quarters of the cow away with them. Such is arctic life. For 18 months before quitting the Investi gator nearly starved, and now leaving 800 or 900 pounds of excellent fresh beef for the wolves and foxes ! "On the morning of the 2d of June they arrived on board the North Star, Captain Pullen, at Beechy Island. The journey was 300 miles, and had occupied four weeks to accomplish it. " On the Bth of August the Phcenix arrived, com manded by Captain Inglefield. At that time Captain Pullen had been away a month from the North Star to communicate with Sir Edward Belcher. By the time he returned the season was rapidly advancing, and the opinion of the most experienced was decided that Cap tain Inglefield, in the Phcenix, should no longer delay his return horlie, without further waiting for Sir Edward Belcher's arrival at Beechy Island. "On the 23d of August the Phcenix left Beechy Island. She touched at Disco, at Lievely taking in coals, and at Hollesteinburgb, where they put in to complete their astronomical observations. At both places they met with Esquimaux, and joined with them in the dance and song. The women were clean and neat, and peculiarly simple and modest in their conduct. " On the 4th of October Captain Inglefield and Lieu tenant Cresswell landed at Thurso, at the extreme north of Scotland. Fifty-three hours' travelling brought them to London. On Friday, October the 7th, they arrived at the Admiralty with tidings that the geographical question of the long-sought-for north-west passage had been satisfactorily solved." DEATH FROM CHOLERA IN HORSEMONGER-LANE PRl- SON.—Yesterday Mr. Carter held an inquest touching the death of Eliza Brooks, alias Lovelace, a prisoner, confined there under remand, who died from malignant Asiatic cholera. Mr. John Keene the governor of the prison, stated that the deceased was about thirty years of age, and an unfortunate female. She was com mitted by Mr. Combe, one of the magistrates at Southwark Police-court, on the Ist instant, for at tempting to commit suicide by casting herself into the River Thames. That was the second time she had been in custody for a similar offence. Elizabeth Harvey identified the body of the deceased, whose real name was Eliza Lovelace but she once lived with a man named Brooks. Witness added :—I heard of her being confined in this gaol last Thursday, and I came and saw her. She then complained of being cold, and that she had no appetite, through the effects of being in the water. I saw her again on Monday, having received a letter from the go vernor, stating that she was very ill. I then found her in the infirmary. She was then sensible, and she said that she did not think that she should live long. Every kindness was used towards her by the prison authorities. Mr. William Harris, surgeon to the gaol, said the de ceased came under my charge on the 4th instant, suffer ing from diarrhoea. I did not think her weak, nor that there was any cause to expect cholera. It was the second time she had been committed for attempting to commit suicide. I ordered medicine, the attack being at first very slight. On the sth instant she was better, but on the next day she was brought into the infir mary to me, and put to bed. Jane Weston and another female prisoner and the matron attended her. I under stood she had purged and vomited a great deal during the preceding night. She had also suffered from cramps in the legs. She made no complaint when unlocked by the turnkey. I saw her in a state of collapse—cold, pulseless, and clammy. The purging was not frequent, but copious, and of a rice colour. The vomiting was incessant, and I reported her to be in great danger. The Coroner—What is your opinion of the cause of death ?—Mr. Harris— Malignant Asiatic cholera. The Coroner—Was she medically treated for that ?—Mr. Harris—Yes ; I gave her brandy and water at frequent intervals. Her thirst was intense. The Coroner—Have you anything to ex plain as to the origin of the attack ? Mr. Harris—No, I have not. Diarrhcea was not prevalent in the gaol. We, however, have had a few cases, but none exactly cholera. There was a serious case of diarrhcea on the 22d of September last. Ido not attribute it to the state of the prison, which has been recently properly dr ained. I do not think the disease was 'caused by the locality or diet. I think she died from natural causes. The jury found their verdict, " That the deceased , Eliza Brooks, alias Lovelace, died from malignant As iatic cholera. THH STRIKE OF FUSTIAN D YK ES.—After a period of 17 weeks of enforced idleness and privation on the part of the turnouts, this strike, so far as the masters are concerned, may be regarded as at an end. Since Men day last, the men have been offering themselves, in con siderable numbers, to return to their work upon the masters' terms,—viz., no advance of wages, and to accept 10,1 hours for the day's work, in overtime, whenever required, instead of making the overtime day to consist of only seven hours, as heretofore.

The Dwarf led the way, Crabbs second, followed by Spring and Ringleader ; Royal Blue, Thirkleby, Dearest Mae, and Sir Philip as written, and so round the top turn, over Beecher 's Brook, and d own by the canal bridge. At the water jump, in front of the Stand, Crabbs held the lead, Dearest Mae and Daphne, followed by Ringleader, Spring fourth. At the upper turn the second time Thirkleby seemed coming to a good place, but fell off as they came down and into the course, and was passed by Royal Blue. Ringleader, who seemed to be satisfied with his stable companion Daphne's position, also dropt away, and Crabbs, with a commanding 'lead, came in easily first by ten lengths, Daphne second, Royal Blue third, Miss Purdon and Dwarf fourth and fifth. Owing to the distance to be covered between the course at Aintree and the station, we were unable, except at the sacrifice of details, and a resort to the electric tele graph, to remain to wait the conclusion of the fourth race ; the winner, and also the starters, will, however, be found below.

At the last meeting of the society, Mr. James Mea dows Rendel, president, in the chair, The business of the evening was commenced by the announcement of the dates of the ordinary meetings of the session ; of the appointment of December 20th for the annual general meeting, for the election of the pre sident, council, and officers ; and of the 30th of May for the president's conversazione. The paper read was, " On the Speed and other properties of Ocean Steamers, and on the Measurement of Ships for Tonnage," by Mr. A. Henderson, Assoc. Inst. C.E. The two subjects were combined for the purpose of afford ing facility for their discussion. After alluding to a paper brought before the institution, in 1847, by the same author, in which the fallacy of using registered tonnage and nom i na l h orse - power, as the inex of the capabilities of speed of steamers, was shown, by a com parison of their relative proportions and elements of resistance with the steam power employed, the present paper referred to a tabular form, containing copious de tails of dimensions and of general information, as to the form, proportions, and speed, realised by ocean steamers, compiled from documents emanating from the depart ment of the Surveyor of the Navy, and from returns . made to Parliament by the Post-office and Admiraltyn, showing that between the years 1845 and 1851, an aggregate mail service of 1,271,000 miles,thin realised only averaged 7.945 knots per hour, which to w be far short of the speed generally supposed d being 8.1 main tained by mail steamers ; the highest p s Al e e e xandria, by knots per hour, between Marseilles and hichuslplvicaeds steamers.knots per tabular n her Majesty's mail packets, and the l o west hour, between Ceylon and China, by statement, pub lishedby Reference was then made to a ac ommunication with India, showing the station of veachteamer, includi ng of 8 . 08 - 2 knots per hour, and swonetsrtac7l running upward s o f by the committee on steam six packets of the Indian na 3, 325,000 miles, at a speed eleven contract steamers of the Peninsular and Oriental Company, running above 533 r, 0 miles,_ and averagi ng l 7 . 972 knots per hour. By the same table the sp ee d of the iron steamer Pekin was shown to be 7'733 knots p er hour ; the older timber steamers, Lady Mary Wood an d Braganza, realising only 7'3'79 knots and 7'249 knots per hour respectively. Some observations were of f ered on the various proportions, forms, and resistance of ocean steam ers, and the difficulty of obtaining a fair criterion of rela tive efficiency ; with suggestions, that the information might be obtained by recording the particulars required in the columns of a table, similar to one which was exhi bited, from which it appeared that the proportions of ves sels varied from five and a quarter to eight times their breadth to their length. That the length of the five steamers realising 81 knots per hour averaged less than six times their breadth, while that of those which realised less than 71 knots averaged upwards of 71 times their breadth. Reference was made to the Orinoco, one of the largest new steamers, the particulars of which afforded much useful information, and which, if similarly collected from other sources and deposited in the archives of the institution, would be most valuable, as the sub ject was daily becoming of greater interest and import ance. The second part of the paper was On the Mea- Yesterday afternoon, about three o'clock, a fatal ac cident happened to a man named James Bright, and his child, a little girl, at the New Coal Exchange, opposite Billingsgate-market, which terminated in the instanta neous death of the former. It appears that after the Lord Mayor's show had gone through the ward, and his lordship had embarked on board the City barges from the market, numbers of the public were allowed to go over the Exchange and inspect the interesting paintings which adorn the galleries. The unfortunate man and his child were amongst the many who were admitted, and upon reaching the uppermost gallery, he, by some means not as yet correctly ascertained, got outside upon the glazed roofnearest to St. Mary-at-Hill. Curiosity then prompted him it is thought to attempt to reach the balus trades athe side of the building for the purpose of viewing the bustitiand excitement in the street below. Leading his child, he was in the act of walking over a long slab of 1, • glass, more than half an inch thick, when it broke away from under him, and the unhappy man dropped through, dragging his little girl, whom he had hold of by the hand, after him, and fell with a fearful crash upon the ornamental pavement beneath, a depth of more than seventy feet. The Exchange being full of visitors at the time, the greatest alarm instantly arose, and a rush was made for the doors, a belief being 'ehtertained at the moment that the whole splendid glqes dome of the building was falling. On the unfortunate father and child being approached, th e l a tt er was found, by some merciful interposition of Providence, to have escaped death, although her thigh was fractured and she was much bruised about the body. The man, how ever, was most frightfully mutilated, his skull was shattered in, and most of his limbs were broken. Ap parently of some lyhewas aid yet being afforded it quite dead, but asthere might bea chance was deemed prudent to convey him, with the child, to St. Thomas's Hospital ; but on reaching that institution the life of the unfortunate man, as anticipated, was pro nounced to be quite extinct. The little girl was taken into the Dorcas Ward, when Mr. South, the surgeon, reduced the fracture, and there is every chance of her re covering. Fortunately the market was just over, and the open area under the dome clear of merchants and factors when the accident happened ; had it been on, it is scarcely possible to conceive what might have been the consequences, the spot where the deceased and a quantity of heavy broken glass fell being right in the entrance to the captains' room, which is always crowded during market hours. It is thought that the unfortu nate man must have gained access to the roof by a win dow on an upper staircase. He was a kind of jobbing porter at Billingsgate, about 30 years of age. The body awaits an inquest. Another accident occurred during the day, which it is feared will be attended with deplorable consequences. While the procession was passing the open space be tween the Mansion -house and the Globe Insurance office, a stand, which was erected by some costermonger, broke down while crowded with people, and one of them, a gentlemanly-dressed man, sustained a double compound fracture of the leg, besides other injuries. • He was removed to St. Thomas's Hospital, where be lies in a sad way. It is feared the limb will have to be amputated. THE ARMY. MORE DESERTIONS. A court-martial (Major J. Clark Kennedy, 18th Royal Irish Regiment, president) assembled on Monday at Chatham barracks for the trial of the following prisoners :—Richard James Brown, of the East India Company's Service, was tried for deser tion and making away with his regimental necessaries. The prisoner, in his defence, said he was sorry for what he had done, it was. the effect of drink. Serjeant Major Robert Sullivan said the prisoner had been in the ser vice 197 days, and his character had been good. The next prisoner was John William Norman, 38th Regi mimt, who deserted at Winchester on the 14th of Sep tember, 1851, and made away with regimental (neces saries. The prisoner surrendered himself to the corps on the 31st of October last at Brompton barracks. Lieut. and Adjutant Beswick stated that the prisoner had only been in the regiment six months, during that time his general character had been good. Private William Snell, 93rd company of the Royal !Marines, was next arraigned for having deserted from the Chat ham division on the 3rd of December, 1852. The pri soner was apprehended at Deptford, working as a labourer. The adjutant of the Marines said the general character of the prisoner was bad. The prisoner had issue of eight ye ars an d 26 d ays i n th e serv i ce . Th e of these trials will not be known until the proceedings have been confirmed at the Horse Guards. Captain I)isbrowe's company of the 62d Regiment marched from Kilkenny on Saturday to Carlow, to re place Captain Rynd's company of the same regiment, which proceeded on Monday to D uncanncon Fort for Minie rifle target practice.

EXTENSIVE ROBBERY IN ------- MANCHESTER --A robbery • and at a dye-house in the I :ame s treet , yr. M ilesimps ß c i n, Morris. The robbery must hav heea occ up ied effected b y betwee r n . 3 th p e .m. on Saturday, when the premises were closed for week, and 9 a.m. yesterday morning; but it is sup posed it was committed after midnight. It appears that the entrance to the premises must have been effected by the river side. The thieves must then have crossed a well, and got up a plank which rests against the yard wall, by which an entrance was effected into the outer swtraesect,omiimuithteehdesotenr,Seateueurdaiedy at h the m silk- m ill in in . Albert crossing the River Irwell, and ata small embankment on . yard of the mill. A portion of the window frame of the dye-house adjoining was then destroyed, from which the thieves got through a door into the inner yard. A portion of the store-room was then de stroyed, after which the robbers obtained access to the interior of the mill. The property they succeeded in taking away was—from 501 b. to 601 b. weight of dull flock warp silk, about 301 b. of bright flock warp silk, 141 b, of dark blue warp silk, of two shades, and 41b. of a light shade of warp silk. The above property was taken from the silk-mill, and from the dye-house adjoining there was removed 101 b. of China boiled-off silk, in a wet state. The value of the property stolen from the mill is estimated at 1001., and that from the dye-house ' at 13/. It is supposed the robbers, who must have been two or three in number, returned the same way by which they entered. As yet there is no clue to their discovery.

BLANKET HIINTING.—I started off one day by myself, after a large herd of buffalo, about three miles westward of the fort, adopting the novel expedient of carrying with me a white blanket in order to stalk them: I took such a course as not to give the herd my wind, and, with the cover afforded by the timber on the point, sue• ceeded in getting within a couple of hundred yards of them. I crept forward on my hands and knees, covered by the blanket, which prevented them from distinguishing me amidst the surrounding snow, and enabled me to approach until I came within shot. I continued creep ing about and aronnd them, singling out the best and fattest of the cows, for upwards. of an hour, and it was not until I had laid five of their number low, that they smelt a rat, and bolted off unanimously, tossing their shaggy heads and ploughing up the snow.—Palliser's Solitary Rambles of a Hunter. SHERIDAN =KNOWLES.—The friends of the Irish Mill.. sion will be glad to learn that Mr. Sheridan Knowles has handed over to G. C.
