LADY FRANKLIN'S FINAL SEARCH.— The Government having come to the con clusion that the fate of the crews of her Majesty's ships Erebus and TerrOr requires no further investigation on their part, Lady Franklin, in accordance with her sense of what is due to the lost navigators, is now fitting out an expedition at her own cost. As a preliminary measure she sought assistance from the Admiralty. by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Reso lute, which had been restored in perfect order to our Queen by the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in her former private expeditions) of such stores from her Ma jesty's dockyards as are available for this special service only. Compliance with these requests having been d3elined, Lady Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final search ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen, has been purelvlsed, which the distinguished Arctic officer who has accepted the command of her (Captain McClintock, R.N.) has pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this em ployment. • Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to induce the Government to undertake a final and exhaus tive search, we hold to the opinion that it is the duty of Englishmen to examine th t limited area whence the traces of our missing countrymen were derived, which, though it lies to the south of well-searched tracts, and has been ap proached by vessels that have returned without loss, has never yet been explored. Supported by the advice of those experienced Arctic sea men, in whom she has every reason to confide, Lady Franklin makes this last effort to clear away the mystery that shrouds the fate of her husband and his crews, and possibly to rescue from their insulated icy abode among the Esquimaux some of his younger companions, who may still be prolonging a dreary existence. On such an occasion we, whose names are hereunto sub scribed," feel confident that this our appeal will not remain unanswered by the British people, who will, we doubt not, tender to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sym pathy which his fame and her devotion must call fdrth, and will aid her in carrying out au enterprise involving, as we believe, the honour of the nation. We earnestly, therefore, entreat our countrymen to unite with us in contributing to this noble object. Roderick I. Murchison, Pres.

The members of the Institution of Civil Engineers had, for some time, entertained the intention of demon strating, in an appropriate' n.anner, their personal esteem for Mr. Charles Manby, with their sense of the valuable services rendered Act them in,iividua►ly and col lectively, and at the same time acknowledging the ability with which he had, during eighteen years, per formed the duties of secretary to the society. Advan tage was taken of the opportunity of his retiring from the post of paid secretary, to carry this intention into effect ; a committee was formed, and in 'a very short period upwards of 2,0001. was subscribed, with which it was determined to purchase a fitting testimonial and to present the balance in cash. The ceremony of presen tation took place in the theatre of the institution, on Saturday, 23rd May, in the presence of a large assem• blage of the members and of Mr. Manby's private friends, whs had been permitted to join in the tribute to his merit. Mr. R. Stephenson, M.P., the president of the insti tution, took the chair, and called upon Mr. Bidder, as treasurer of the fund, to communicate the reoult of the exertions of the committee. Mr. BIDDER explained that, owing to the eagerness with which their call was responded to, the duties of the committee had been crlinparttivtly I , ght. The amounts subscribed varied from half-a-guinea to.) 100/. ; and those who had contributed the latter sums had done so as cheerfully as those who. , ,e nvtaus only permitted them to offer the smaller amount. Up to the present time there had been received 2,019/. 1111. from 417 subBcri- hers, of whom 358 were members of the institution, and 59 were the private friends of Mr. Mauby ; but as many more subscriptions had been anuounctd, the accounts would not be finally closed until the publication of the list of contributors to the testimonial. It had afforded bim great pleasure to aid in this demonstration, for as a very early member of the institution, he well knew the arduous duties of the secretary, and he now bore willing testimony to the able and kind manner iu which those duties had been perf , rmed. Mr. ROBERT STEPHENSON, president, said the object of the meeting was well known ; Mr. Manby having — after eighteen years' eervice—resigned the position of paid secretary, it had been resolved to offer to him a testimony of the respect and esteem in which he was held, and in doing this he would make a few brief obser vations, on the circumstances under which Mr. Manby had become connected with the institution, the duties he had performed, and the services he had rendered. After the usual sgles and vicissitudes the young society, although very ably directed by Mr. Thomas Webster, had scarcely established itself among the scientific bodies of the metropolis. The minutes of its proceedings were but meagerly reported, and its transactions were scarcely known beyond the members themselves. From the time, however, when Mr. Manby undertook the duties of secretary, new vigour was infused into all their pro ceedings, the number of members increased, the charac ter of the papers improved, and the care bestowed on the editing and publication eventually rendered the records of the proceedings a most useful text-book for the profes sion. Mr. Manby's sphere of wiefulness was not, how ever, confined to the performance of his official duties, for he was ever ready to give advice to the. younger member?, and to afford aid to the senior members, from his well-stored mind, in reference to every department of engineering, as well as in a variety of ways, rendered more pleasing by the alacrity and cheerfultesi with which the friendly offices were performed. The value of the information afforded a al enhanced by its accuracy, which was to some extent to be attributed to the practical foun- dation of his profes.rional education, the early portion of his life having been 'pent in the workshop, as a mechani cal engineer, at the period when the profession was begin ning to assume is present importance. In some degree, therefore, Mr. Manby lest the official character of secre tary, and became the friend and companion of the majo rity of the members of the engineering profession. Addressing Mr. Manby, he then said, " I have been extremely brief in my remarks, as I would divest our present proceedings of all stiffness and formality ; and it is with great pleasure, Mr. Manby, that in confirmation of what I have said, and of the sympathy fel , , kr your welfare by so large a number of engineers, I have to pre sent to you, on behalf of the memb;:rs of the institution and a few private friends, this testimonial, consisting of a timepiece and a pair of candelabra, with the sum of two thousand pounds, and long may you live to enjoy the recollectioniof the honours of this day." The timepiece and candelabra, supplied by Messrs. Howell and James, appeared to afford general satisfae faction by their elegance and the good taste with which they had been selected by the committee. They bore the following inscription ,c Presented by the members of tho instituton of Civil E ng i neers an d a f e w personal friends, with the sum of two thousand pounds, to Charles Manby, as a token of esteem, and in recognition of his valuable services, during a period of eighteen years, as secretary of the institution, May, 1857." To the president's kind address Mr. Manby, who ar petred to be much affected, immediately rep'►ed, that it rarely fell to the lot of ail one to receive so gratifying a token of the esteem of those with whom he was in daily contact, acid to have the presentation accompanied by such kin(lly exprfssions ; if he was previously at a loss how to express his feelings, the difficulty was now in creased, ai,d he must crave indul_ ear e if the few girds of thanks he could uttt r, appearea inadequate to the occa sion. They must not believe him insensible to their kindness ; it Lad been so constantly shown, that he should indeed be ungrateful, if it bad not made a deep impression ; ar.d but for the consciousness of having al . ways endeavoured strenuously to perform his duty, Le should feel that his poor services had been much over rated. His connection with the institution dated from a pe riod long antecedent to his appointment as secretary He had been, he was proud to say, apprenticed at an early age as a practical mechanic, and earned his bread by daily toil : he was sent up to London by his late ex cellent father, to work upon contracts at the dock, where he was noticed by Mr. John Rennie, by whom, as also by Mr. Telford, he was afforded invaluable opportunities of improvement, and became known to Nimmo, Provis, and Palmer, and to them, as well as to Field, Mandalay, Bramah, and Simpson, he was under great obligation. They had permitted him to attend the meetings of the then infant Society of Engineers, and when his father intrusted to him the construction of the first pair of marine engines with oscillating cylinders, and the build ing of the Aaron Manby, the first iron steam ship that ever made a sea voyage, it was to the institution he resorted for advice in difficulties, and he was happy to record the expression of his gratitude for the aid so kindly and unreservedly afforded to him. a lie then slightly sketched Lis career in Franca, under his father, and in the Government service—his return to England and occupations in the iron works of South Wales—and his settling in London, when he embraced the earliest opportunity of joining the institution, at that time presided over by Mr. Walker, and under the able direction of Mr. Thomas Webster, whose exertions, in giving to the still young society a constitution and good laws, and in attracting to its meetings men of sole ntific eminence, should ever be gratefully remembered. On an emergency Mr. Manby's aid was sought by Mr. Simpson and Mr. Bramah to perform the secretarial duties, and eventually, in 1839, he was appointed secretary. The position was novel for a man whose career had hitherto been essentially practical, and he felt the disadvantage of succeeding a Cambridge man, whose pursuits were purely literary and scientific ; but again good friends lent a hand, and several literary man and members of the press, who bad since attained well-deserved eminence, afforded him invaluable counsel and assistance. The stirring period of the engineering history of the country was commencing, and it was evident how much good would result from bringing into intimate contact the men of talent and energy, whose professional con tests tended to estrange them from each other. With this object steadily in view it was necessary to be useful to all, and eventually, after certain necessary changes, which consecutively introduced to the Presidential chair Sir John Rennie, Mr. Field, Sir William Cubitt, the late Mr. Reticle], Mr. Simpson, and Mr. Robert Stephenson, and brought into the council the well.keown names of Bidder, Branel, Locke, and thawkshaw, as Vice Presi dents, with Hawksley, Fowler, Errington, McClean, Gregory, Wood, Russell, and others, the value of the institution was recognised, and it became the arena where the men of the day met, and whilst mutually learning to estimate their several powers, they formed friendships which had tended to most beneficial results, and were imbued with ambition to Execute great works conferring such inestimable benefit on society. The labour required for obtaining such results was no doubt consideral le, but the council jndicieusly directed the course and it had been fortunately successful ; the institution had been extensively useful, and was as well known and respected abroad as at home, for it had been a pleasing duty to Mr. Manby to give a cordiel welcome to all foreign engineers and scientific men, and to obtain for them that favourable reception they might not other wise have experienced. It only depended on the mem bers to extend this sphere of utility, and to connect the institution with the records of the great works distinc tive of the nineteenth century. The remainder cf Mr. Manby's days would probably have been passed in the prosecution of these views, but events were otherwise ordered, and since his resignation as paid secretary had been tenderecland accepted, he had again to be grateful to a member of the profession, for obtaining for him that which he valued very highly,— his present connection with Mr. Robert Stephenson, the excellent President. The value of the testimonial with which the members and his personal friends wore pleased to recognise his willing seeiritien, was gewatly enhanced by the kind feel ing which prontpted it, and the alacrity with which the proposition bad been met. He should look upon it with pardonable pride, not only as a mark of the appro bation and the friendship of the members, but as re minding him of the Institution, with which it had been his ambition to be permanently identi fi ed ; and he now asked as a favour to be permitted to devote a portion of the amount of the testimonial to estAlishing an annual premium which should bear his name. There was another point on which he would wish to say a few words ; the engineering profession reckoned amongst its numbers many rich and prosperous men, but there were also many less fortunate members, to om aid in time of sickness, or need, or succour to a struggling and be reaved family, would be inestimable. Yet the engineers were the only professional body not possessing some kind of a mutual aid society. Would it not be possible to originate some plan for thus doing good ? His time and means might be freely commanded, and be should feel happy in devoting to such an object a further por tion of that which had been so generously placed at his disposal. It only remained for him to renew his heart felt thanks, not only for the munilioent present, but for the kindness and friendship with which he had been favoured .daring so many years. To the past presidents . —the actual president—the council, and the senior mem bers, be was dee; ly indebted for countenance, support. and advice, and to the junior members, whose interests bad ever had his best care, he owed much for their cheerful co-operation and the coufidencs they had ever reposed in him. He had only inadequately expressed his thanks, but they would give him credit for the sin cerity of his feelings, and as long as his services could be made availalle to the institution, or to the members, within those walls, or elsewhere, they might be freely commanded. Mr. LocKE, M.P., Vic.-President, proposed a vote of thanks to the President for baying taken the chair on the occasion, and having so kindly expressed the unani• mous feeling of the members towards their valued officer and friend, to whom they all wished every prosperity in the career in which he was now embarked. The members and their friends then adjourned to the Ship, at Greenwich, where they invited Mr. Manby to dine ; Mr. R. Stephenson, president, occupied the chair, and after an excellent repast in Mr. Qiartermaine's best style, the chairman proposed the usual loyal t as's, observing that there was not any profession more loyal in its attachment to the t'Jrone than the Engineers. They must recollect that during the reign of her Majesty some of the greatest works had been achieved, and the advent of his Royal Highness the Prince Consort was contemporaneous with the greatest advance in engineer ing science ; so, when the services of mechanical and civil Engineers had been required during the late war, they were freely given in a novel field, and had been eminently successful. In proposing the principal toast of the occasion, the CHAIRMAN said he had already imperfee ly expressed his own feelings and those of every member of the institu tion, with regard to the eminent services rendered by their friend, Mr. Manby, during so many years ; there was not an individual in the room, or belonging to the society, who had not experienced in some manner Lie kindness and urbanity. As a senior inembtr he had very often derived advantage from the services so wil lingly rendered ; but it was the junior members espe cially, who were most deeply indebted to their consis tent friend the secretary, as he never' lost sight of their interests, was ever at their service, and appeared to consider their advancement a paramount duty. In fact, all classes owed him muoh, especially for his escalope in bringing them together within the walls of the institution, where, in assembling for the promo tion of the general good of the profession, they obli terated the feelings which were sometimes engendered by the violent professional contests in which they had all been engaged. Mr. Manby had originally undertaken a difficult task ; it was essential to win the confidence of all around him, and then to use the power with discretion ; this he had done must successfully, devoting himself to reconciling these differences that must occur, and rendering the institution almost indis pensable to the profession. He bad no hesitation in say ing that the .present position of the society was almost entirely to be attributed to the eseetions and skill of his friend Mr. Manby, whose Lealth and ,prosperity he begged to propose. Mr. MatrßY, in responding to the toast, said if be had at a former period of the' day experienced difficulty , in expressing his feelings, that difficulty was now aug mented by the kind terms in which the chairman had r.entioned him. He feared that more than just praise had been bestowed on him, for having endeavoured ho nestly and faithfully to perform his dury ; he had been fortunate in having the direction and advice of a Coun cil comprising the most eminent members of the profes sion, who had always given him their frank co-opera tion. It was a laudable object of ambition on the part of the junior members to be admittsd to the Council, and he was proud to see around him many wbo would worthily succeed the seniors when they retired with their honours full upon them. He would avoid repeating what he had said at an earlier period of the day, when they had presented him with a testimonial which he should always look upon with pride and satisfaction ; but he cool I not help en treating them never to lose sight of the institution, which had been and would still be the means of confer ring the greatest benefit upon the professien to which all were proud to beleng. He begged to thank all his friends for their unvary ing kindness, and without, he hoped, making any in vidious distinction, would especially thank his excellent friends Mr. Bidder, Mr. McClean, and Mr. D lap, for their active exertions in the matter of the testimonial, and his friend and former pupil Mr. Forrest, who he had much pleaeure in seeing appointed as Assietant- Secretary and eventual successor. He was convinced that if teey extended to Mr. Forrest the same kindness and confidence they had shown to him, everything would be done to promote the interests of the Institution, and to enlarge its sphere of usefulness. Although he bad now retired from the position of paid Secretary, and the more active official duties had de volved upon Mr. Forrest, it bad been considered desir able that he should still retain the title of Secretary, and perform the duties. He felt great pride in receiving this additional mark of the confidence of his kind friends, and he begged them to believe that his best efforts should at all times be freely at their command. The CHAIRMAN, again requesting attention, said the few toasts be would propose should be confined to sub jects strictly within the province of the Institution. During the period of his Presidency several excellent subjects had been brought before the meetings, but there was one which had excited more than ordinary interest be alluded to the remarkable lecture by his esteemed friend, Mr. Bidder, on "Mental Arithmetic. They were all aware of ? the extraordinary powers of their friend, but it was not believed that he could have ex plained so clearly the mental processes by which he arrived at the results with such rapidity ; it had, how ever, been done with admirable perspicuity ' • and in a somewhat extended voyage the Chairman had made, he had been gratified by finding that these extraordinary lectures were well known over the Continent, and had penetrated even to Alexandria and Algeria, and had everywhere excited the most lively interest. He would ask them to drink the health of their friend Mr. Bidder, with thanks for his long-continued and valuable services to the Institution. Mr. BIDDER thanked his friends sincerely fur their re ception of his name, and especially ho felt gratified by the complimentary manner in which the Chairman bad mentioned the attempt which he had mode to explain his process of mental arithmetic; he had long intended to bring that subject before the members, bet had re served it for the presidency of his old friend Mr. Ste phenson, and he felt highly gratified that his exertions had been considered useful to a society in whose welfare he had always felt great interest. With respect to the special object of the meeting, the alacrity with which the proposition of the testimonial was universal:3 , received, was such that his task as trea surer became comparatively easy ; ho was in the position of a coachman with a willing, or rather over-free team, needing the curb and drag rather than the whip ' • the result was peculiarly gratifying t o him, and h e added his best wishes to those which had been so deservedly ex pressed to their worthy secretary. It was about thirty years since Mr. Bidder joined the institution, and if he had a reproach to make, it was that the members did not, so frequently as they ought, have social gatherings which must be productive of mutual good. When the number of members was very small, trey frequently dined together, and this day's proceedings showed that a large number could meet with equal f atis faction, and ho was certain it would conduce to the good of the institution. Mr. LoCKE, M.P., said he was permitted to propose a toast which, he was assured, would be received with enthusiasm ; it was the health of that man and disting uished engineer, Mr. Robert Stephenson, who now so worthily presided over the institution, whose members had this day done themselves honour in recognising the valuable services of their old friend Mr. Manby. That his efforts had been attended with complete success the proceedings of the day amply proved, and the testi menial offered to him showed bow fully they a ppreciated his services. He bad heartily concurred with the Cha irman, in his remarks as to the advance of engineering science c. ce u d ing the reign of her present Majesty ; and he rejoi that in this country they were permitted to exercise their professional duties unfettered by Government interfer ence. This might be approaching a dangerous topic, but he had often before given his opinion, and it bad been cordially received. Looking around the mum, and observing the intelligence, skill and talent ernixagy PRIOR 4D. STAMPED 5n .] the institution, he felt great pride in belonging to a society, the labours of chose members were universally known and appreciated, and who were individually the missionaries of civilisation throughout the world. This position could scarcely have been reached but for the in stitution, which attracted towards it all that mental power and practical skill, which, when combined, con duced so materially to the nation's wealth and the peo ple's prosperity. Reverting to the toast he had the honour to propose ; no man occupied a more prominent position than their excellent President, and no man was more worthy of that position. His history was that of most of the great men of this country he had sprung from the ranks of the people, and by his own exertions alone, he had attained his present high reputation, and established a fame which was indissolubly connected with the greatest works of the present period. He gave them the health of Mr. R. Stephenson, President, and the Institution of Civil Engineer's, over which he so worthily presided. Mr. R. STEMENSON, in returning thanks, cordially subscribed to all that had fallen from Mr. Locke, with respect to the advantages afforded by the institution, in bringing together men of intelligence and skill, and con ferring great benefit upon the profession generally, but more especially in allaying that effervescence of feeling engendered by professional contests, which were now conducted in a spirit to induce mutual respect and esteem. He regretted the absence of his friend, Mr. Brunel, with whom he had maintained arduous struggles, which he could now look back up on w ith such pleasure as almost to desire to fight again "The Battle of the Gauges." Mr. FIELD said, as one of the founders of the insti tution, and now be believed the of lent member, he well recollected the time when their meetings were few and small in numbers, and their ultimate success was very problematical ; their great difficulty was to find a secre tary combining all the qualifications they required, be cause such a man would poesels engineering knowledge and other talents which would enable him to strike out a more profitable course. They tried many good men, and he despaired of ever finding the proper man, but at length Lis old friend Mr. Manby was prevailed upon to take the position, and for the last eighteen years they had all witnessed the success of his efforts. The result., from so small and unpromising a begin ning, had astonished as much as they had gratified him. They were row entering on a new phase of the exirtence of the society. Mr. Manby had partially withdrawn from the post of Secretary, with honours which he hoped would long he enjoyed, and they had in prospect as his successor a gentleman who was well known to them from his long as,ociation with Mr. Manby as bis pupil, and who appeared to be jest the person they wanted. He begged to propose, " Success to the Institution of Civil Engineer.-," coupling with it the name of Mr. Jae. R:Trest, the Assi,tant-Secretary. Mr. FORREST said, that through the kindness of his friend Mr. Manby, he had been incidentally connected with the instituti.n for nearly fourteen years, and by the council he had been selected to succeed to the office which had been so long and so ably filled as to merit the demonstration o the day. He only hoped that when he stepped into the position with its reeponsibilAies, he might, by following the footsteps of his predecessor, equally merit thvir confidence ; he should try to do so, and with th , ir kind assistance he trus'ed to performing the cioLies of the post so as to promote the best interests of the society. Mr. GLYNN begged permission to propose " Success to the Great Eastern Steam Ship," coupling with the toast the name of Mr. Scott Russdl. Mr. SCOTT RUSSELL said he was undoubte ,, ly proud of being the builder of the great ship, and should feel still prouder if she achieved the success he ventured to anticipate. The most remarkable feature connected with it was that a body of men should be found who would subscribe 700,0001. for an undertak ing, the success of which was declared to be very proble matical ; that feeling would, however, be diminished when it was know❑ that three-fourths of the shares in the under eking were held by members and associates of the Institution of Civil En , ineers. That fact alone spoke volumes for the safety of the structure. Mr. Brunel, who must be called the father of the project, Lad desired to have the smallest ship capable of taking its own fuel to Australia and back, and conveying such a cargo of goods and passengers as should bo remunerative. Calcu lation showed the actual dimensions to be necessary, and the system of con ular constructon adopted at the Britannia Bridge afforded the strength of these vastly increased pro. pertions, which Lad at first surpri-ed even English engineers, with their habit of regarding everything as possible. The size did not, however, astonish even the merchants, who contemplated finding cargoes for without trouble. It would be a proud day both for Mr. Brunel, (whose absence ho regretted), and for him, when the "Great Eastern" was committed to her proper element. The ship was a specimen of what the com bined qualities of mea could produce, and it impressed upon all beholders the ad%antages of such union as the institution afforded the means of encouraging. United they could do almost anything, and their efforts must benefit their country, and be conducive to their own good. Tire Chairman then quitted the chair, and every one retired early, well satisfied with the proceedings of the day. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ASCOT RACES- WE DNESDA Y. The Heath presented that dreary appearance characteristic of all race-courses on a wet day. The few spectators who lined the-course opposite the Grand Stand " kicked their heels about" the sod den grass with a kind of listless indifference to the proceedings, and exposed themselves to the heavy showers that fell at quick intervals with a resigna tion which showed that before setting out they bad been bent upon pursuing sport under difficulties. ' Few carriages were to be seen, and they had no lady occupants, the gentlemen inside them hud dling close together, scarcely emerging from their shelter to see the horses as they shot past them. At times, when the rain descended - more heavily than usual, the Grand Stand enclosure appeared deserted, and at other times, when only slight showers were falling, it showed a perfect forest of umbrelias, or, as it was remarked, it appeared as if mushrooms of enormous size had suddenly sprung up there during the pelting rain. Thunder, too, occasionally burst in loud claps or rumbled in the distance, but a bright gleam of sunshine now and then relieved the general gloom, and the dark clouds occasionally broke, revealing bright patches of a deep blue sky. Just as thesport was concluded the rain ceased, and when we quitted the Heath the sun was shining brightly, lighting up gaily the surrounding landscape. The racing was most interesting, and was tho roughly enjoyed by the dreadnought turfites, who, regardless of wind and weather, will congregate together. The Wednesday, although it is popu larly considered an " off" day, furnishes certainly . the " prettiest" racing of the week ; the appear ance of the competitors for a Hunt Cup as they de scended the hill on the New Mile being particu larly striking and picturesue. The triumph of Lord Londesborough caused general gratification, and the trophy which he gained by the prowess of his filly Bonheur is worthy of his sideboard. It is a candelabrum, standing about 2i feet high, of pure and simple design, having branches for six lights, which can be moved, and the stem and upper part used as a stand for flowers. The stem rises from a rocky base, on which are represented in high relief, on one side, tivo fallow deer and a recumbent doe. This cup, which is very appropriate in its details, is from the design of Mr. Thomas Brown The admirable patience with which young Ray nor rode the winner was deservedly noticed ; nor must we omit to re-echo the terms of c numenda- tion which were occasioned by the excellent start effe3ted by Mr. Edward Hibburd, who was act ing for his biother, who is, unfortunately, inca pacitated, by severe indisposition, from discharging his usual duties. By the way, the Vase which was woes yesterday by Mr. Howard's Arsenal was ma nufactured at the establishment of Messrs. Garrard, Panton-street, Haymarka. It is designed and modelled by Mr. Cutterill, who has accomplished the task committel to his hands in a most admir able manner. The Vase, or rather " Cup)" is a capacious tankard of bright silver, capable of con ta-ning upwards of a gallon. This buge flagon bas a lid or cover, on which is repres,i n ted with great truth and spirit the contest of a bo ar, brought to bay, with two ferocious dogs.

AN UNWELCOME LITTLE STRINGER.—On Monday week an apparently respectable young woman, about 20 years of age, called at a house in William•street, Water loo-road, and engaged apartments for herself and her husband, for which a due agreement was entered into with the landlady. The female had in her arms a fine female child about seven months old, which she asked the landlady to hold whilst she, as she alleged, went out to fetch her husband to look at the lodgings, but never afterwards returned, leaving her infant behind her. One or two similar cases of a like description have occurred lately, the inhuman parent having hitherto eluded all pursuit, This child, however, is doing well, and the landlady, notwithstanding her circumstancee,. will, if necessary, adopt it. STEAM TO NEW YORK.—SOIITHAMPTON, Wednesday. - The European and American Company's steamship Queen of the South, Capt. Beale, arrived here early this morning from New York, having made a good run of 13i days. She left in the afternoon of the 27th ult., in her news has been consequently anticipated by the Asia. She brings 171 passengers (of whom about 70 have been landed here), a small quantity of freight for London, 400 tons for Bremen, for which port she sailed this afternoon. A. very flattering testimonial from the passengers was presented to Captain Beale, expres sive of their warm appreciation of the efforts made by him and his officers to insure their comfort and safety during the voyage, the uniform kindness and courtesy shown towards them, and the order and regularity with which everything has been conducted. They strongly recommend the ship and ship's company "to all who value a steady vessel, a rapid sailer, and a thorough, efficient, and gentlemanly commander and corps of officers." The Jason, belonging to the same company, Captain Britton, hauled into the stream this afternoon, and sails at daylight in the morning for New York with 490 passengers, a ship-letter mail, and about 350 tons cf cargo.
