As a preliminary measure she sought assistance from the 'Admiralty, by asking for the loan of the Arctic ship Resolute, which had been restored in perfect order to our Queen by the American nation, and also for the gift (as granted in her for mer private expeditions) of such stores from her Majesty's dockyard as are available for this special service only, Compliance with - these requests having been declined, Lady Franklin is now devoting her whole fortune to this final search ; and a large screw yacht (the Fox) lying at Aberdeen, has been purchased, which the distinguished Arctic officer who has accepted the command of her (Captain M'Clintock, R.N.) iaas pronounced to be perfectly adapted to this employ men t. Not repeating the arguments we formerly made use of to indnee the Government to undertake a final and exhaustive search, we hold to the opinion that it is the duty of English men to examine that limited area whence the traces of their missing countrymen were derived, which, though it lies to the south of well-searched tracts, and has been approached by vessels that returned without loss, has never yet been ex plored. 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 isolated icy abode among the Esquima.ux 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 un. answered by the British people, who will, we doubt not, ten der to the widow of the illustrious navigator that sympathy which his fame and her devotion must call forth, and will aid her in carrying out an 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. (Signed) Roderick I. Murchison, Prest. Rl.

THE CIVIL SERVICE SUPERANNUATION QUESTION. The following statern,mt 'of this very hard case has been sent us for publication : "1. In 1811 and 1812 the officers of Customs and Excise were in possession of a superannuation fund amounting to 334,0001., all of which Was .appropri ated by the 51st Geo. 111., c. 55, and the 52d Geo. 111., c. GO and 81, to the wants of the Government on condition that the officers of thoie departments should nt,wr be required to pay any contribution's. towards their Superannuation. _ _ " 2. In 1822 the compuct of 1812 was departed from by the impogition of a tax on the officers of the Customs and Excise, as well as on the other civil servants, to provide one moiety of their super 7 aiinuations (3 Geo. IV., c. 113). This, hOwever, existed only two yeaiz., for in 1824 (5 eo. IV., c. I 04) the, tax was repealed and thesums levied under it wore re,,aid to the officers. The principle and po licy.of 'free superannuations' were thereby in the . most substantive form reaffirmed by_Parliament. "3. In. 1828 the Government broughtin a Bill to re-enact the main features of 'the Act of: 1822 ; lmt the feeling of the houie waA - soistrOng against it that it was withdrawn. "4. On the 4th of August, 1829, the Govern ment, by a Tr..a,ury minute, imposed upon ci v il servants who entered after that date, a Superannua tion tax of 24 per cent, on all salaries not exceeding 1001. a-year, and 5-4)er cent. on all other salaries ; and it was not until 1834, that that tax was con= firmed by Parliament-4th and sth Will. IV. c. 34. "5. All civil servants *139, entered prior to the 4th of iugust, 1820, are not only exempt from that tax, but hare a far better . scale of pensions than those who pay, it. High. political, judicial, Sand diplomatic functionaries, although they have en= tered the public service after the 4th of August, 1829, as well es about 24,000 workmen and others in the dockyards, arsenals, and the Post-office, re ceive pensions from -the State, but do not pay any tax in contribution thereto.- ." 6. The tax is at present upwards of 66,0001.• per ivinum, while the pensions paid to those who have been tubjecte4 to it amount to about 11,0001. per annum, The*otal'amount contributed by rho officers since the tax was imposed (27 years ago) is about 900,0001. The total amount returned to the contributors in sujilkytmnuation .+llowances during that period, is about 80,000/., leaving , a net sur plus of about 820,000/- That surplus, if it had been funded on thempririciples of an insurance office,- would have amounted to about one million sterling to the credit of the contributors, of whom it is found only about one in seven will ever attain superanntiltion, - the contributions of the other six sevenths of the officets being entirely absorbed by the State, to the great privation of the families of deceased coutributors. "7. In February, 1856, the Chancellor of the Exchequer brought in a Bill (No. 37) . - improving the scale and system of superannuation,' but con tinuing the tax. "8. Mr. Roebuck subsequently pTesentel a peti tion,. t-iguf d by 10,000 of thecil it servants, praying for a repeal of • the tax, whereupon the bill and petition were rdierred.. to a select committee to the house. " 9. The select committee condemned the tax, and resolved that it sh,uld cease on the Ist of April, 1857, on condition that the .salarie3 of the civil ser vants be previously revised, ' with. due regard to the amdunt of deductions remitted.' • " 10. The Chancellor of the . ExcheqUer there upon, in July, introduced a bill (Nu: , 223), which, being 'destructive of the whole principle of his first bill (No, 37), gave such universal dissatisfaction that it was withdrAwn i i deference to the geueral wish of ihe house. "11. - Tile reduction of salarie3 contemplated under the proposed revisi.(!n would have placed the officers in a worse po-ition than they are at present, seeing that under t. (No. 223) the supezannua tions would have been calculated ou reduced sala ries. " 12. The prestnt scalesof salaries has been fixed (after several reductional!) 1821, 1828, 1834, and subsequ' ntly) in consideration of the value of the Work to be done,' without contemplating any abate ment f,r superannuation ; and those salaries, if paid in ftil!, as vote by Parliament, would be, but a proper' ai,d moderate remuneration for the work and responsibility of each „nice, as was clearly shown by Sr C. . Trevelyan, ,Mr..Stephensoo, and Mr. Broi.iley, in their valuable evidence before the select committer. " It has also been shown that the nominal Baia, ries of the 16,853 civil servants, averaging.only 141. a year (two-thirds averaging only .861. a year), are inadequate to boar this erievowly partial tax with out entailing doMestic distress. " The civilsetratits of the Crown, therefore in general committee,' sustained by the res(dutions of the select committee of the , House of Commons, That it is desirable to do away with the sys'em by which a portion of the Palaries of the civil ser= vant.i is deducted on account of superannuation al lowances,' and ' That the prac!ice of providing superannuation pensions for members of the per.. nvinent civil service, is based on the sound princi ples of policy,i have adopted as their prayer, on. this import t questiou, the re introduc tion of the C ancellor of the Exchequ er ' s ori ginal bill (N . 37), of last session, further amended by an - tension of the scale of yearly in crements there: contained to three-fourth's of the officer's salary a period of 40 year's service, and the abolition o ho superannuation tax, by the re peal of the 27t Wien of the Act of 1834.

" We, the Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Salford, in the county pal-itine of Lancaster, in council assembled, log leave to approach your Royal Highness with feelings of profound •respect awl devoted attachment. We embrace the opportunity afforded by your Royal Highness's visit to this neighbourhood of ten dering our hearty Congratulations on the recent bjrtb of It princess; and'the prospect of her Majoi , ty's speedy re storation to her usual health and strength, and we would add our earnest hope that this addition to the Rnyl family circle may not only prove a source of happiness the august, parenty but . may conduce to the cwnenting more firmly, if that be p , ssible, the ties and obligations of a loyal, devoted, and affectionate pr ply t , . their iie loied Sovereign. We deeply regret that her arjesty and your Royal 'Highness save to ,n,,urr: the loss of btr Royal Highness the Duchess of Glucester, the list of a new bygone generation of the Royal faTily 'of Englan. , a lady not more exalted in stationthang s eneraly behved and respected, and endeared to the nation by a r n g lrfli of unostentatious virtue; We sincerely condole wish her Majesty and your Rnyol Highness. on this bereavnnent. Your Royal Highness's . visit to Manchester hari for its object the promotion of an attempt made io the great com munity of which we are part to affkird a. pure, innocent, and unprecedented means of refining and elevating the tact: , , feelings, and intelligence of the people at large, which attempt, with God's blessing. we teel assured will be c owned with ooniplete suecesa.We are aware that when your litoyalllighness first confoented:tobe4owyonr patr - age, and to endeavour to procure that of her M ale sty, to the exbibitien undertaken with such views, and now openeo under 'se& favourable auspices, it was your expressed wish that it might result in something permanent., and that it h triad not he what its predecessors apparently have been--ephemeral.. We* are therefore emboldened to draw yout Royal Highness's attention to the build , ing in which we are now assembled, and the library and museum which it contains, and to put for ward—their claims to be in some degree anticipatory of your Royal Highness's desires. The original building, and the pai* in which it stands were purcbased by voluntary r , uu r scription, aided by a slight anti iroi;gnificant grant out of the fund which had been placed at the disposal of Government for such purposes. Since that time very considerable additions have been made to the fabric; at the oust of this community. The library and museum have been formed principally by individual contributions, some of thern of a munificent_ Character in point of amount, and we hope we may point to the facts that since the opening .of the library and museum in Jar,. 1850, they have been visited by 2,362,619 persons; ' that the books lent out amount on au average to 72,000 annually, and the number of readers in the library to • 100,000 annual* as proofs of the estimation is the insii`mtien is locally held, and the advantage taken • of thafacilitieS which it affords. L may be proper also to inform your Royal Highness that the estimat value of the books and the articles in the museum is 15,0001. We would recall to the recollec:ion of your Royal Highness your former visit to this park, in October, 1851. On that occasion her Majesty was graciously I:leased to receive an address limn us, in the presences of 80,000 Sunday school children and teachers—au assemblage without parallel in its character; and one of which we believe her Majesty and your Royal Highness have a pleasing recollection. To comuic. morate that`visit there has been executed and recently erected in the park a statue of her Majesty, which we respectfully pray your Royal Highness to inaugurate A substantial amount of the cost of that statue has bee n defrayed by the voluntary small but h-arty contributions of childrin and teachers, from whose minds the remem brance of what passed cannot be effeeed, but is ho have been desirous of handing down to posterity the mettle , rial of an event in which they were personally engaged, which brought the n into the presence of their revered Sovereign, and which forms a bright spot in their exist ence. We tenst that your Royal Highnesee.will Oonvey to her Most Graci,us Majesty the expression of what we believe to be the feeling of the thousands of her young Subjects who were present in October, 1851, and'our owe cordial sympathy with that feeling, along with our we euranceof devoted loyalty and attachment, and our earnest piayer that she may long be epared by Prey:- dence to reign over these realms and a unite d and pros perous people. • " Given under the common seal of the:said Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the sai d horeog this lth day of May, 1857. " STEPHEN gEELIS, Mayor.' As' the Mayor ceased there was again a long out burst of cheering, which having subsidei,. the Prince read the following reply. : " Mr. Mayor; Aldermen, and Gentlemen, —I thank you with all my heart fbr the address which You_ have presented, and fbr your warm expressions of 'attachment to the Qaeen. It must', be very pleasing I to her to find her subjects uniting with her in.joy and sati f scticn in any event which tends to incre:oie her happiness and that of her family, and, on the other han-I, sympathising with her in her sorrow when the inscrutable decrees of Providence have visited them with affliction. " My present:le here to-day may testify to you, in re turn,• that any object which may be designed for the advance:neat of the prosperity and happiness of her p, ople Commands her personal interest and solicitude. i "I may be allowed to congratulate yoi upon the achievement of a work of such usefulness to this va=t c -, mmunity as the creation of this Park, Library, and Aluseum, giving at once the means of healthful recreation and mental improvement to a population employed day after day, without relief, in the monotonous laboor of 'a3tory work. "3 congratulate yon, however, particularly, upon your succe 4s io proving to your fellow-citizens that these tneaes of )63reation. and improvement ire objects worthy of their individual exertions, and on the fact that they have themselves made the sacrifices which were neeso sary to procure a blessing to them, which they wilt doubly feel as their own. . . '"The statistics to which you have referred, showing the number of persons who have availed themselves of tie boon, amply testify that this is the case, and that. aw`att to graft upon the Art Treasures Exhibition, now attracting the attention of Europe to Manchester, a permanent institution would be in accordance with the spirit of the people, and would probably succeed in fur theting objects the benefit of which, for their wtlfsre; they have Larnt to appreciate. "It is with pleasure that I oomply with your request to inaugurate the statue which loyalty has erected on the spot where the Queen met for the first time your body, in the presence of 80,000 children enjoying the blessing of school tuition. That they may grow up an addition to the active powers and strength of their country is my aexious wish, and may succeeding generation, seeing the Queen's statue in the midst, of this park, fin i in it 4 contemplatkon an assurance that where loyalty and at , tachineat to the Sovereign, as the representative of the institutions of the country, are linked to an ardent love of progress, founded upon self•rtliance and self-improve ment, a country cannot fail.to prosper, under the faiour, , of the Almighty." - - The Right Rev. the Lo . rd Bishop of MancheSter then presented to MS Royal Highness the address of the Institutional A'ssoziation of Lancashire and Cheshire. His Royal Highness then, accompanied by the Mayors of SAlford. and Manchester, and attended by his suite and official visitors, walked leisurely through the various rooms of the Museum. For those devoted to the re:mption of the different stuffed specimens of natural history a very slight inspection sufficed ; but his Royal Highness re mailed a cm , iderahle time in the new wing, where a really fine collection of the works of local artists was dis - plAyed. At ti►e door of this wing he was met by Mr. Hamm° , sley, the Chairman of the Ex hibition, who, on the part of the local artists, pre sented the Prince with a brief address. The party then proceeded to inspect the collec tion of paintings at their leisure, those most con spicuous for any particular feature either connected with the work itself or the artist being printed oat to the attention of the Prince by Mr. Hammersley. Among the paintings which mtst attracted the at teetion of his Royal Highness was '" a Family Group," executed with much boldness of style and iudividuality, by Mr. R. Crozier. , A wprk by Mr. Bradley, numbered 112 in the catalogue, and " The Peasants' Holyday," by Mr: Mark Anthony, came in next tor admiration. • A portrait by Brad ley and another of Liverseege, by the same artist, with a very carefully finished view in North Wales by Mr. H. C. Whaite, received marked attention., A companion picture to the last-mentioned subject, also by Whaite, and one by W. Keeling entitled " Love's Messenger,"' were much admired. " The Master is come and calleth for thee," a most perfect and feeling realization of its subject, by F. Stone, A. R.A., detained the Prince for some time. " Spring," a light and genial little work by J. Chapman, and a most' beautifully finished pair of views of Derwenwater and Loch Katrina by Mr. Royle, drew many. expressions of warm . commendation from his Royal Highness. Among the water-colour drawings the two that elicited 'more admiration than any others in the room were a family group by J. Bustock, a very beautiful work, and an exquisite landscape by W. Hull. Before these his Royal Highness remained s me time. The inspection of the Local Arts Exhi bition being over, ,the party proceeded through the Museum to Peel-pa , kto inaugurate the statue of her Most Gracious Maj:sty. The statue is erect el upon the spot from which, when, in 1851, _the ' Queen visited Manchester and Peel-park, she saw an assemblage of no less than 80,000 children from the Manchester and Salford free schools. The statue is placed to commemorate this event, and, as the inscription ou i , s pedestal states, a large portion of the expenses connected with its erection were met by penny eentri butious from the little children themelves.. The cause and manner of its ere c tion render it one of the most touching memorials in the kingdom, and one of which both the people ( f Manchester and their Sovereign may well feel proud, and look upon with feelings of no ordinary emotion. As the Prince emerged from the Museumihe fieure was enveloped in a long mantle of linen, which concealed its fine proportions till the moment should arrive for unve line it. A proper canopied platform,' covered with scarlet cloth, was erected in front of the statue for the Royal party. s On the west was a platform for the privileged public, and ou the east a large gallery accommodated upwards of 2,000 children fr . om the Sunday schools. Dra peried galleries for the accommodation of ladies adjoined these, so that the statue was quite sur rounded, except on that side facing the Free 'Li brary and Museum. Beyond the galleries teas an immense concourse of spectators, who pushed and strove with laudable tenacity for the best places, and who seemed fearful of missing even the most ordinary deta;l of the proceedings of the day. - The neat:- parterres in Peel-park suffered sadly by this pert.istent loyalty. Tulips; lilies, and violets weie Soon rendered literally as . " dirt under their feet," and the year's careful horticulture will hardly re move the, ruinous trac , s - of one day's extreme loyalty on the part of the crowd. The Prince Consort having taken biS place under the canopy, the. Mayor of Salford, addressing eim, said • _ _ _ _ _ " The statue which is now before us, and which I have now the pleasure to ask your It 'pa Highness to inau gurate,• was erected_ to commemorate the visit of her Majesty to this place in October, 1851, and her recep tion on that ocerision by a concourse of Sunday-school teachers anclieligjars,- to ttie number of at least 80,000. Many of these are now here present, and I ant sure they join with me 'in fervent prayer and cordial wish that this tiiaY, long, remain a statue to our Sovereign's honour, living aesbe does in the hearts of her affection ate subjects, and that she may long continue to reign over a proFperons, united, and loyal people." After these few remarks his Royal Highness bowel, aud,, giVing the signal. the figure was is-' stanrly unveiled, and amid a Royal salute from artillery And that best of all Royal salutes; the tre mendous cheers of a loyal people, a noble figure of the Queen was displayed. The statue is decidedly one of the best of the many of her Majesty which we have had °cession to remark upin. It is col-s3al, relatively speaking ; that is, tie actual statir) appears nine feet high. It represents the Queen in her robes of State, and in the bloom of womanhood. The likeness is perfect, aztd its attitude portrays with surprising fidelity that, calm and unaffected dignity which so dis tinglijs:llo3 the sovereign. The artist appears to nave .shunned coldness as much as exaggera tion in stiiving after effect; and in avoiding b nth extremes has 'attained the difficult medium which secures' Auccess. The taste and skill of Mr. Noble in both design and execution have never been more > conspicuously displayed. At the base of the figure is the following inscri p tion in gold letters :-- October the 10th, Majesty to the Peel-park, Salford, “To commemmorate trio visit of her Most Gri;cious bByo,tolloco Sunday-schoolcontributions aided by t b h y i s publicme r l e a e l present to welcome occasion.—Taces A AB her Majesty on that joyful occ s w c a ri s p e t fo e n c , t e o d f teachers and scholars, who were Mayor of Salford." His Royal Highness then, accompanied as before by t h e M a yors of Salford and Manchester, and a..tfeoded by his suite, took his departure, escorted by sevrr al of the 7th Dragoon Guards. The cheers. as he quitted the park were almost deafen ing, an d more hearty and continued acclamations cou ld not have been bestowed upon the sove- - reign herself. The guard of honour followed the cortege, and the procession closed with the field battery of artillery which had fired the salutes. The whole route through Manchester was a continued ovation. The great thoroughfare of Market-street was completely blocked up with thousands of spec tators who made the very air ring with their in cessant cheers. In this manner his Royal Highness proceeded to the London and North , Western Rail way Station, London-road, whence, at 12 o'clock, he started for the metropolis in a special train. The very in' eresting nature of the proceedings of course attracted to the elite of Manchester to Sal ford, and in so far affected the first day's attendance at the Art Treasures Exhibition. Nevertheless, "the number of visitors was very considerable under the oircumptanceq. In conkequence of a consider able time being rerixed to remove the benches, iNaval and Zriilicary ituev.:(...terace. The Royal COliern;ssion of. Inquiry - into the mili tary purchases in the army, presided over by the Duke of Somerset, will resume'itl duties on the 12th nst. The Isioners will hold their meetings at No. 1, Whitehall-yard, lately occupied by the Army Works Corps. • During the past few days a series of highly irate , resting experiments have been undertakenee the hea 1-quarters of the Royal Engineers' establish ment, Chatham, in Vie presence of Maje)r Gen. T. Blanshard, C H. Sandham, and other offi ten of the Royal Engineer., for the pump° ofexa mining and testing a new description of suspension bridge for the passage of artillery, cava!ry, and in fantry over rivers and tirearns, the invention ref Soreetnt-Majer.J. Jones, R.E. The spot selected fur the experiments was a portion of the river Med way, at St. Mary's-creek, adjoining the praeci e _ ing ground of the Sappers and Miners, where -one of the newly 7 invented bridges was constructed ovt r thecreek. The chief merit of .t he invention con sists in its extreme simplicity, as •a field bridge of this description can le constructel and thrown across a river of from 50 . to 100 fe t sp an in less Wan three hours, and when compiled will: loe capable of sustaining the passage of heavy field piec s and any number of troops required to pro ceed ovcr. it ; after which it can be taken to piec-s an exceedingly short time, and transported-with the troops. Sergeant-Major Jones's suspension bridge isformed by using. .the sheet-iron bandi3 of the new gabione, ietroduced into the service, which ar• also his invention ; theie bands are eath Oft. Sin. in length, and 31 inches wide, with a - 20- gauge, and are fastened together by means of tho holes and bu tons used in encircling .the eabion. • Four or five of these bands are laid on each other, according to the span of the bridge and the weitpit required. o be borne, the bands forming the gitdera of the bridge.; the girders are then made secure ?o scantling on each side of the liver, after which-the flooring of thebridge is formed by laying pontoon (losses or plank , , on th e g i r de's, and the who 43 is completed. The bridge which has been tested at Chatham was constructed with a span of about 50 feet, and was formed simply with the bands of 24 gebions, the weight of which was 4801 b., ib• who e being completed and fixed by the troops in 1 ttle more than tw o h ours . With the view of as rtaining its strength a 6-pounder gun and limber, weighing a ton and a-half, was wheeled backward and forward over it, with a number of men, after which several bodies of troops were marched across it, during the whole of which time the deflection was scarcely perceptible, and the oscillation not more than is usual with bridges constructed on the sitsp,n4On principle. The result of the experiments showed that the invention possessed several itepor thnt advantages, one of which is the rapidity with whiCh the bridge can be constructed and speedily stretched across the river. Another importout . feature in the inven t i on i s th a t th e m a t er i a l s f or an ordinary bridge can be stowed in a box of about 6 feet t-quare. General Blanshard and the other offi cers appeared highly satisfied with the experimerits, and a report of the invention will be forwarded- to General Sir J. F. Burgoyne, G.C.8., Inspector- General of Fortifications. The screw troop-ship Assistance went out of Portsmouth harbour yesterday to try her machinery and speed. The trial was very satisfactory, result ing, as in the case of the sister ship,,the Adventure, in rather over 10 knots per hour. Thesis,two ves sels take out the 82d Regiment and four companies of the 23d Royal Welsh fusiliers. The rem cinder of the last-named regiment goes out in the Princess Charlotte, sailing three-d cker, which is fitting up as a flosting berracks for the troops in China. The following regiments are under orders for India Royal Fusiliers, 88th Connaught Rangers, the 3d battalion of the 60th Rifles, and the 93d Highlanders. The Amphitrite, 26, coast-guard-ship, which went out of harbour on Monday, has not left Spithead yet for her destination, Milford. The hospital ship Melville, fitting for China, has been found to leak seriously. She has been found to be making a very great deal of water, and was taken into dock •yeAerday to aseertAin where the defect was, and the water being pumped out, and six feet of water pumped into the ship's hold, it was found that the leakage was not confined to one or'two places but extended to many. It is difficult to ac ,otmt for ibis defect, as the Melville underwent a thorough repair only a few mouths since at the building-yard of Messrs. White, at Cowes, and no doubt, from the high repute of that establishment, the work was welt done. It is reported that on being launched from their slip she took the ground ; and nad to remain on her bean ends till a new tido rose. If so, of course she would be likelyte be much shaken. The period halting nearly arrived wh-n it is usual to flit-ward the tniops helooging to the various de pots at the Provisional Battalion to India, for the purpose of joining the head-quarters of their re spective regiments, considerable activity prevails at Chatham Barracks in preparing the non-commis sioned officers and men for embarkation. Yesterday afternoon nearly 1,000 troops were assembled 'on the parade ground, at Chathamßarracks, with their new Clothing and n-cessa; ies, when they were in spected by Col. H. Jervis, Commandant of the Provisional Battalion. The first detachment of 50d men for . India will leave this oari ism, early in June. Yesterday the paddlewl-eel steamship Vesuvius, Capt. 0: Wise, was warped out of No. 3 dry dock at. Sneernes4, and to-day she will go into the stream preparatory to her departure.
