The Hood, which was originally laid down at Chat. ham Dockyard as an 80 gun sailing vessel, is now-or dered to be completed as a 91-gun screw steamer. in order to adapt her for a screw she was cut in half amid ships, and lengthened nearly 40 feet, and she has been again cut asunder forward in order to be lengthened at the bows. Efforts are being made to have her completed during the present year ; she has been on the stocks since 1849.

TRIAL TRIP OF THE STEAM-SHIP OTTAWA. SOUTHAMPTON, WEDNESDAY. The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamship Ottawa, Capt. Methven, arrived this morning in ,dock from a trial trip to Cherbourg and back. She left on Monday morning, at 2 o'clock, with the managing direc tors of the company and their friends, in all 30, among whom were Mr. Alan, Mr. Haddow, Captain Nairn, Capt. Hall, R.N., Caot. Engledue (superintendent of of the company), Mr. Lamb (superintendent engineer), Mr Summers (shipbuilder), and other scientific gentle men. The Ottawa brought up in St. Aubyn's Bay at 2.50 p.m., when the company went on shore. At 4 o'clock on the following morning they weighed anchor, and arrived at Cherbourg at 9 o'clock. Here the party went on shore and witnessed the preparations then making for the reception of the Grand Duke Constan tine. The Ottawa left Cherbourg at 9 o'clock p.m., on her return to Southampton, where she arrived this morn ing at 6 30. The speed obtained by the Ottawa during this trip was under st am alone 10i knots per hour ; steam and can vass nearly 12 knots ; revolutions of engines from 27 to 30 ; total revolutions during the trip, 42.000. The en gines were manufactured by Fossett and Co., of Liver pool. They are direct acting engines, with oscillating cylinders. Their nominal horse power is 200, hut they can be worked to 750. A new registered guage, in vented by Mr. T. Saunders, of Northam, has been fitted, and worked admirably, both for steam pressure and vacuum. The machinery was in such perfect order, that no trouble was experienced either from the heating of the bearings or any other cause. The Ottawa draws 16& feet of water, and is 1,274 tons. She is barque-rigged, and has accommodation for 100 passengers. She was purchased by the Peninsula Corn pang of the Canadian Steam Navigation Co., but has since been entirely refitted. The t-aloon is very tastefully fitted, the panels being painted in green and gold, with dr4pery, &c., to correspond. She leaves here in a short time for one of the company's stations i❑ I❑dia. The Ottawa was piloted during the trip by Captain James Goodridge, of the South Western Company. It was in the Ottawa that Miss Nightingale used usually to travel between Scutari and Balaklava. nor INTELLIGENCE.—We have this week received a number of communications from the several hop-growing districts in Kent ano Sussex.

London's only Carnival, the Derby day, came off yesterday on a grand scale of magnitude and sue cese. Everything was favourable, even the weather was as brilliant as if no public holiday was meant, and the wholeday will bear comparison with the moat auspicious that ever assembled the metropolis upon the Downs of Epsoni. FO7 one day, both by right and . fashion, is • Londou privileged to take leave of its Ben es and Abandon itself without re serve to the'dusty pleasures of the Irby. For 24 hours trade' and business are as things of. no ac count. The " odds" and turf " shaves" succeed inz voices and bank accounts, and all4ive themselves. up to the enjoyment of the great holiday with a relish and excitement' that inspires the most blase and rouses the most phlegmatic. It is very well to say that it is our national taste foy horse rac ng which blackens the Downs on these occasions, but we have our doubta'of the correctness of the a i esertion. What would the race be without' the road to it, the peeple, - the little pleasure patties, and the ibot little - halipera ? Tha Derby day is, in fact, the metropolitan plc nic. It is looked forward to as such, and the dust, hurry, contusion, tepid' champagne, and gritty fowls are so many necessary adjuncts to the great _day out.. Take away ,any of these accessories, and the Derby day would be as tedious as a debate on MaYnOoth. The roads yesterday were as the roads Can only be on these occasions. There 'Was, of course, no lack of equipages . Of all kinds- e splendid, moderate, decent, and used up,— and the usual per tentage of animals that would not ,geewitle others - that - coffin* e, and lieveisibillaTrive been tried at all. What a marvellous resurrection of horseflesh always takes place on the Derby day. Like the bony villains that can only be assembled by a public execution, so also are the ricketty quad rupeds on the road to Epsom to be seen at no other time or place. Where are, they kept till the great day calls upon them to exhibt a feeble motion and make believe as if they were going to run ? What becomes of them all when the day is past ? Every variety of these. unfortunate' quadrupeds was out yesterday. Some had about as much chance of reaching the Downs as Stonehenge, and human credulity was exhibited in its most aggravated form among the patties who sat behind such beasts, evi dently under the notion that they would take them to Epsom. Other horses _there were of a more de ceitful character, whose performances it was evi dent would terminate at the Downs and reduce the youthful clerks in blue veils to the unpleasant necessity of pasSiug the night in the carriage or dragging it ,back to town themselves. But these were by no means the worst among the various specimens of horseflesh. There were many. gay" animals: The.celebrated predicament of Mr. Briggs. in a bathing-machine behind iejibbing horse, and the tide coming in, was quite outdone by the vaga bond eccentricities of some animals, which, without warning, backed full into the stream of vehicles with awful havoc.. The steep ,bill leading up to the course afforded peeeliar opportunities for such dis plays ; on arriving at this the general opinion among the horses seemed to be that they had done quite enough, ant. those that had been lively en route " let out" as if they meant to kick the driver from his seat. Mach amusement was created here by a panic which ensued among the occupants of a first-class drag, who all, even to the driver, sprang into the road on a. slight hostile demonstration of one of their leaders. The consequences might have been' serious but that a bystander, with much cou rage, clung to the head of the refractory brute,. and, amid the dia of a thousand infallible remedies, for a vicious hone, contented himself with the best and simplest—that of holding him fast. There were the usual number of breaks-down on the road, some of which seemed quite inexplicable. Carte that looked as if they could not be relied upon to - go a mile jogged on securely with six or seven inside and a small party on the shafts, while appa rently s .und vehicles came to grief with such asto e nishing'facility as to lead to a general suspicion that they must have been: manufactured at some Govern ment establishment. An -immense number of visitors came down per rail-not less than between 16,000 and 17,000. The arrangements at the Lon don-bridge stetian on this occasion were very goOd. No stoppages took place Extra ticket clerks were provided, and as fast as the people streamed in they took their places in the wain, and were despatched in 13,tches of 500 and 600 at a time. • As far as could be judged by a brief visit to the station, there was no cause of complaint, and we doubt if ever so large a number of passengers were conveyed with less trouble in as short a space, of time. After passing Cheam the visitor by rail caught glimpses of the road, marked by a dense ridge of dust of such consistency that it seemed hard to believe that it would ever disperse again, but remain ever more a permanent feature of the landscape. In fact, each cortege,' high or low,' seemed attended by a small simoome whict hung upon all its move ments with suffocating pertinacity, and coated fea tures and dresieS in.a way that made recognition d.fficult in the extreme.. It-would be a nice cal culation if it were possible to ascertain the pre cise number of luncieons lost through friends being thus disguised in gritty particles. From the town .of Epsom the stroatn of foot passengers wal incessant, pouring up towards the course in dense black lines till they verged into the great sea of human beings whisk seemed to fret and surge in heavy masses between the stand and starting post. Epsom. Racecourse on a Derby day, as our rea ders are aware is a pheromenon quite indescribable. It is a medley—a worldon a small scale, such as the Derby only exhibits; or only London could fur nish it. No other festieal in the world approaches near to it. It is in fact a houseless London--Lon don with all its pomp, wealth, and squalor, wants, vices, luxuries, gentlemen, knaves, and fools, at once transported as if by magic to the open fields. Like all great sights, it leaves a strong though in distinct impression on the mind; whimsical and bizarre, like the aspect of the course itself, where much is seen and little 7ecoltected. Who that saw 'a Derby once can ever forget it ; yet who that has seen it,so times can tell more than that it is an im mense assemblage, as undefinable as the ocean ? Yesterday it differed little from its usual cosmo politan aspect. There were tents and booths of . all kinds, .from the palatial canvass of Alger down to the miserable tarpaulin shanties on twigs from out of which the sallow daughters of Egypt dispensed unheard-of we a lth i n sixpenny fortunes. There were organ grinders, mcintehanks, dancers, fiddlers, and beggars, performing monkeys, and precocious children. Tender infants that could scarcely stand upon their feet were made to stand upon their heads in wooden platters, and urchins, scarcely weaned, crept up long ladders carefully ad j tasted on the parental nose, which bore evident tokens of having suff Ted somewhat in the unusual duties it was called upon to fulfil. Sallow vagabonds in much-used " fleshings" contorted themselves after a manner that quite upset'all theories' as to the use of the back-bone. Punches, girls on stilts, ballad singers, negro melodists grinning *Om ear to ear, card-sharpers, and the never-to-be-sufficiently anathematised " korrekt cards" abounded as usual. Pickpockets of course, mustered strong, and must have reaped, a bounteous harvest, for until it was time to deer the course but few policemen were to be seen. In this part of the arrangement an altera tion is decidedly needed. The Grand Stand was very full, and visitors continued to arrive up to the very moment of the horses starting. As usual, there were some 20 or 30 belated parties that missed the whole affair, coming only in time to share the dust and general panic and disappointment that ensued on the winner's number going up at the post. The first race generally commands as much attention as the first piece of a boxing night. Yesterday there was not even a misgiving as to the state of the turf to give it interest, and all the varied noises of a race-course continued with almost unabated vigour. Not so, however, as the time for the event ap proached. The uproar gradually stilled down into a busy hum, and silence deepened as excitement and expectation . increased. Just before the first false start a fixed, solemn attention reigned over the whole multitude, that, compared with the former restless uproar, seemed bodeful and impressive. The excitement rose to an intense pitch, odds were given and taken for or against almost anything. Only in subdued exclamat ons or long-drawn breaths was the disappointment of the false starts acknowledged. Suddenly there was a hoarse mur mur, gradually swelling into an uproar —a confused dull trampling, and a rush like a whirlwind as the horses .swept by—the colours mixed, changed, and vanishing in the distance ; and ere you could col lect a thought or' hazard a guess the Derby was run and won. The result of the race was scarcely unexpected; for Blink Bonny, the winner, had throughout the winter been the leading favourite, and had only lost her position in the betting by her defeat at New market for the One Thousand Guineas Stakes— a 'defeat which is now inexplicable, and which, perhaps, can only be attributed to the glorious • ' Soon after the race of the day was over the'whole ma , s of visitors began moving from the ground, and the most unpleasant part of the proceedings:—the return home—commenced. The stream of vehicles seemed hopelessly complicated and unmanag , 'able, and dire was the crashing of panels arid s ortn of expletives in all directions. At the railway station, when every one wanted to return home at once, the crush was excessive, but good precautions had hen taken in the morning, so that as far as we were able to ascertain all passed off well. It would have been still better if people could only ha.ve seen that -through a narrow aperture it was impossible for soma thousands to pass at once, or for everybody to be the first in town. However, as these obvious truths seemed quite • overlOoked by all, each pushed and struggled, and, while-impeding others, delayed themselves, ITntil the public learn that it is impossible for two bodies to oucnpy the same space in the same time they may implicitly depend on making each other mutually uncomfortable on all such trips as yesterdays. All the southern roads between Clapham and the metropolis were crowded by thous - tnds in the evening, and of its kind - there has seldom- been such a sight witnessed as last night's return from the Derby. ANOTHER ACCOUNT. Yesterday, to all 'those who merely looked upon the anniversary as a holiday, was a glorious Derby Day. A greyish Morning, moist after the showers of the night, matured into a sunny noon, the other , - wise torrid temperature of which was qualified by a smart breeze that made a sort of dusty Paradise of the picturesque road that leads from London to the Downs. There were just clouds enough over head to make people look up. now and then and talk of weather, but their only atmospheric effect was to give innumerable varieties of light and shade to the rich foliage of the Surrey scenery. A holiday indeed it was for all the holiday folks ; but how different was the case with the betting men, whose calculations had been influenced by the threatening aspect and -hetwy,rains of the previous week. The " horses which * ' they -had Selected for favourites, - las being fitted to make way through heavy ground, were -now at a discount, while the light, lithe, nervous animals fluted for summer days, and 'able to fly over a dry elastic turf, rose at once to a premium. The Derby of 1856 having left sundry rheumatic recollections in, he bones of such of the visitors of that year as chose the railway as their means of transit, a considerable number at- tempted to evade the preliminary pushing, pugilism, and_semi-pulverisation of the ,London-bridge sta tion, by this year taking to the road in the nunierous one-horse, two-horse, three-horse, and four-horse "drags" which had been extemporised for the occasion. It is true that by doing so they escaped the first grand agony ; bile, alas ! there were innumerable minor ills which attended their newly adopted route. The coaches, and 'bus-s, and vans - looked, tempting enough as they clustered round the Elephant and Castle, With rose'tes in the horses' ears, and roses in the coachman's but ton-hole, and each provided with a heaven-inspired trumpeter -to wile incautious wayfarers into the - insidious conveyance. They were each and every one guarant-ed to wart on tfie instant, and it seemed as if the united strength of seve ral ostlers, who stood at the horses heads, was necessary to keep those fiery steeds from galloping off on their own account. But the moment the unsuspecting victim was safely lodged inside, or perched on the dizzy acclivity of the roof, then he found that all this was merely a bit of playful pantomime, and his only consolation lay in seeing the same ruse played off on innumerable successors, until at last the vehicle was so full that even an Epsom conductor could not squeeze in or on another passenger. Then came the real 'starting, with four horses who, trained in independent cabs, had then for the first time attempted to travel in each other's company. There were the two blind ones at the wheel 4, who had nothing fordt but a placid resignation, and the frantic "jib" and "roarer,' who did the leading business, and ren dered- everyone who was not accustomed to their playful gambols exceedingly nervous. - Then the coachman, who having perhaps retired from the profession six years before froth infirmities of tern per, had been exhumed for this particular cocoa-, sion, became dreadfully excited, lashing and swear iug at the horses, and. in his cooler moments: comforting his passengers with the information that it was fifty to' one if ever " that infernal team" saw Epsom Dawns that day. But the horses were not his only trials of temper. The vans stretched right across the road, and the little costermongers' carts darted in and out under his nose, and the rotatory young ragatnuflios, whO carried on an active trade ,in " heels-over-head" on the pavement, grinned and yelled, and poured in an unceasing fire of playful sarcasm, interspersed with predictions that if we made haste we might probably be in time to meet the people coming back from the races. Under such circumstances it was a slow journey to Kennington-gate, where an army of " pikemen " unrelentingly levied black 'mail, and made everyone wait , while they did their business in that comfortable leisurely, man ner which they considered most suited to the heat of the weather.. Thence to Clapham the pace was not much improved. Had we been all ancient mariners, and had each individually had the mis fortune to shoot ' an albatross, we could - hardly hardly have expected a less prosperous voyage. We of course carried the vans and costermongers along with us, but in addition, Vauxhall and Westminster bridges' had now poured in the West-end contingent of sporting barouches, which would get on in spite of everything—long sporting "traps," filled with pretty gentlemen in delicate poplin paletots, and each carefully veiled lest the sun and wind of the road should destroy complexions which it had taken • twelve months assidous lielyder to mature. Our pace was alter nately a crawl, a short spasmodic gallop, a dead lock, and a crash. Everybody swore at everybody els., and rival coachmen forgot that there were such things as paisengers in the world in their fran tic attempts to head each other at all hazards. It was as nearly as possible a quarter of a mile beyond the Swan when the slight moisture which had hitherto kept the dust down entirely disappeared, and a perfect Eloloolllset in, blowing incessant dust into the eyes, ears, and noses of the wayfarers. Every notion of comfort or enjoyment of scenery, all raptures about green fields, or forest glades, or golden meadows at once disappeared, and the only remedy that the coachman could spggest was to stop at every public-house on the roadside, and call for incalculable quantities of beer. Then there were the horses to be sponged and the harness to be mended—a trace broke at about every twenty yards —and the errant passengers to be collected, until at last we arrived at the Downs in about quadruple the time we could have done the journey by rail from London -bridge. Our deliberate verdict therefore is, that on future Derby days, provided that the station be not completely blocked up, and that the policeman does not threaten you with his truncheon for attempting to force your way in—. provided that your arm be net broken in the at tempt to get your ticket, and that you are not hustled into the deep siding while running along the platform—provided you have not to box a fel low-passenger at the door of a carriage, or, 'having to het. hint, are so fortunate as to triumph—and provided finally that there should be no collision en route, it will be bettor for the public , gene rally to stick to the railway than attempt to re vive, the mediaeval style of travelling so itirli. e , a in the traditionary lore of Epsom ra ces. , features of the racecourse itself are twoike,' ,°_, u each successive Derby day as are the , . 811 '7 13 a evet who are said to be only distinguisha" "y, the sheherd.

The pickpockets fu tively rummaged the: empty pockets of people who had been rendered wise by eiperiefice, and the po licemen ran after the dogs, who exhibited their usual perverse attachment for the turf. At the paddock, Mr. Dorling was in all his glory, perform ing feats of equitation, and waving his hand in grand semicircles with the true air of a great com mander ; and tiros? who h td shillings to spare went in to'-see the horses and the preliminary mys . eries, while those who had, not lingered outside and watched them as they went down to be saddled and inspected at the Grand Stand. And a nolo`e troop they made - as they passed proudly along, pawing the ground, and looking as if th ey k new that the eyes of a, hundred thou san d peop l e were upon them. ' Every one crowded round Tourna ment,;- Outhing-his fine shape, 'his Silky bide, his fiery eye, and his gallant action. His winning be came almost a ce.taiuty, and his backers were in ecstasies. Skirmisher, also—" ScrumMager," as he was fondly called by his• hUmbler par tisans—had a strong party ; but nobody asked which was "Blink Bonny" or " Black Tommy." They were " dark horses" and nobody dreamt that a dark horse was to- win the race. There was a I , ttle race which nobody seemed to care about ; then a letting out of the crowd for an hour or so ; and, finally, an awful pause, much aggravated and pt °traded by the numerous false starts made by the horses. Not leas than a dozen tunes did eager watchers shout "They're off 1" and a dozen times was the vast crowd di4appointed. Even the veteran who rang the bell was betrayed into a pre mature ding-dong, so that at last when the whole ruck was fiirly on the course the spectators on the Grand Stand would not believe the fact until they saw t'le horses rush madly round the corner. The race was the affair of but a moment. Blink Bonny was already a-head, and Black Tommy close behind. Adamas made a gallant rush as they passed the Grand Stand, but the favourites were lost in a crowd, and every one was astonished. Blink Bonny won by half a length, and there was confusion in the camp of the prophets. The following is a detaPed description of the racing:— The Epsom Town Plate of 50 soya (Handicap).

THE RA .CE. The spectators became more and more impatient as false start after false start was made. Not until after a dozen ineffectual attempts were the horses despatched from the post, and no sooner had Mr. Hubburd given the word " Go," than Chevalier d'lndustrie took the com mand, with Gaberlunzie, Commotion, Oakball, Turhit, Anton, Arsenal, Strathnaver, Blink Bonny, Warder narsrske, Adamas, and Lady Hawthorn forming a (+later in his wake, Saunterer, Skirmisher, T o urnament, and M.D. being in the centre of the ruck. They ran thus to halfway up the hill, where Gaberlunzie went up to the Chevalier, and was soon in possession of a clear lead, the Chevalier lying second, Anton third, Strath naver, Arsenal, Commotion, heading the next lot. No further change occurred until reaching the mile post, when Anton rushed to the front, Lambourn running into the second place, Chevalier d'lndustrie going on third. Strathnaver and Arsenal next. On rourebng Tat tenhans Corn, r M.D. emerged from the ruck and showed in the third place, Lambourn at the same time joining Anton, with whom he ran nearly head and head round the turn, Adamas, Tournament, Stratb never, and Skirmisher keepinc , close company, and Lady Hawthorn, who had up to this point ran with the leading horses, gradually dropping away into the rear. When they had fairly landed in the straight Commotion disappeared from the front, and Black Tommy, Adamas, Arsenal, M.D, Wardsrmarske, Blink Bonny, and Strathnaver showed nearly in a line behind Lambourn and Anton. On crossing the road Lambourn gave way, and at the dis tance M.D. broke down and stopped "as if hAenreans shot." On nearing the stand Strathnaver headsed. with Blink Benny waiting upon them, Adan . l a a n y ce A . In a l and Black Tommy going on in close at d t t - e t n o ensued, and Is strides further a most exciting y, s w e who immediately Charlton "let out" Blink rushed to the front, Black Tommy, Adamas, Arsenal, and Anton being well up in her wake, a close race in ending in favour of Blink Bonny by a neck, the by a . head only, and a second beating the third neck separating the third from the fourth Anton and Arsenal were filth and sixth, close together— so well up, indeed, thatco the rider of each thought he was either sewed orthird. Wardermar'ke, Lam , Commoti on, Zuyder Zee, Skirmisher, Saunterer, 11Cesrnwax Colt, Tournament, and Sydney formed the next lot, but we wore unableve to determine their relati posi tions. The " tail" consisted of Laertes, Bird-in-the- Turbit, Gaberlunzie, Special License, Dusty and Loyola. The Bentinck Plate of 50 soya (Handicap). Winners extra. One mile. Mr. F.

But , erworth (chairman of the board), Mr. llarvey, Mr. Warre, Mr. Bethel', and Mr. Spiller, waited upon the Lord Mayor at the Mansion-house, when the first-named gentleman, addressing his lordship in reference to the casual poor, said that the following resolution was unanimously passed by the board on the 24th of March last :—" That it is highly de-irable some better arrangement should be made within the City of London for the recep tion of the casual or houseless and vagrant poor, and that, if possible, a central ward or wards should be provided in the City of London, to be supported by the several unions in connection with the City of London, according to their average in c me or expenditiate, or such other contributory standard of rateable proportion as may appear to be equitable, and that application be made by the clerk to the other City Unions to ascertain their views on the subject." This resolution (Mr. But terworth said) conveys to you our purpose. It is our desire to unite with the other City Unions to effect this common object. If we could meet upon common grounds under your presidency, and unite in this common purpose, we feel that the rate payers will not have to contribute unequally to the burthen, but that the three City Unions will pay pro rata for such a desirable object. We have eeet a copy of the resolution to the other City Unions, and we now ask you to give yottr sanction and approval to our proceedings. As the guardians are bound by law to maintain the casual poor, so by the Act of the 7th and Bth Vic., c. 101, the Legishture particularly directed its attention to systematise the arran g ements for the houseless poor by providing asylums for them throughout London. At the time of the passing of that act great objec tion was made to it by some of the West-end. Unions, and it lies dormant. We refer to that cir cumstance for the purpose of showing that the ma chinery, though dormant, is in existence for carry ing out this purpose, so far as the City is concerned. I have reason to suppose that you yourself are of opinion that the measure would not be good or complete unless the principle here suggested were r.pplied to the whole of the metropolis. The guar dians feel that there would be difficulty in the first instance in carrying out the scheme in its inte g rity, and. they feel that they can scarcely ask your lord ship to head a movement in a matter extending so much beyond your jurisdiction ; but they feel at the same time that the measure is one which might be discussed under your presidency, and that some good might result from it. The following resolution was very recently passed at the board :—" That a committee be appointed to confer with the Lord Mayor and the authorities of the other two City Unions on the subject, of practically carrying out the resolution of this board passed on the 24th March last, having for its object the providing of a central receptacle or ward for the casual poor of the whole of the City of London, and copies of which resolution werb at the time forwarded to the Lord Mayor and the Unions referred to." The committee therein referred to are the gentlemen, together with myself, who have the honour to attend here to-day. It becomes our duty to bring up to your lordship an official copy of this resolution for your inspection, and we trust that you may be pleased to grant the desire of the guardians. feel that in taking this public steri v in e shall only have discharged our duty as guardians consider ing the wants of the casual poor, for whom we are provide. Our casual wards, as at p re sent situated, bound by law to ar; sona e three miles from the cen tre of the metropolis, and that is the system which we wish, if possible,,,,r to alter. statement The LORD MAYOR—Theyou have made, and the views P ex ressed in the resolutions v h ave read, se thoroughly coincide with my own il ?" - tha t I will at once that views, ;very assistance in my power for the purpose of en abling you to carry out so desirable an object. Nothing can be more unsatisfactory than the ac commodation afforded to the casual poor of the City during the past winter, and of the evil conse quences resulting from the present system. I, with others who have devoted much time and attention to the subject, have had ample means of judging from personal inspection of the i eceptacles provided for that unfortunate class of our fellow-subjects. If you will let me know what day will be convenient to you I will call a meeting of the guardians of each. parish and take their opinion upon the subject. I will most heartily join you in your efforts to alter and remedy the existing state of things. The deputation thanked his lordship for the co .t u h r - - tesy with which he had received them, aud wt. drew.
