I think that he duration of Par , 7nent might be advantageously shortened ; I look upon our locai . ti ti as amongst the mot Valuable possessions of Englishmen, ,7,• 12t1 the best de'ences of their ireedorn ; and I feel that they ought to be guarded with vigilant care I have felt indigo .tion at th - 1 manner in which, under the Poor -2• 4 httel vadministered, the poor of this colintr hays, in many 117, b een treated. • I h ope iouch from the new system about to be v.. t _ r 9 Cl Oeed ; I shall watch it at'entively, but it it does not remove evils justly complained of I shall be ready to do all in my power to obtain some measure more efficient for the purpose.

Those who remember my conduct during the be Atrliaments, when I had a seat in the House of Common., must lat mare how little I was ever disposed to give up to Ministers either o ven opinions or the interests of my constituents. These, Gen l'*"‘Then, are my general views.

Key, was completed with coals, stores, and two months' provi sion 4 yesterday, with all possible dispatch, and weitt out of harbour last night at right o'clock. A me,isen ger from the Foreign-office arrived by the mail-train this morning at one o'clock, bearing disp,aches fur Sir G. H. Seymour, G.C.8., and Vice Admiral Sir W. Par ker. He was immediately put on board, and the Bull dog sailed with him a little before four o'clock this morning for Lisbon. Every exertion is being used to prepare the St. Vin cent for sea with the most convenient dispatch. Ru mour assigns her time for sailing to Wednesday or Thursday next. The Rear-Admiral embarks to-morrow. The Ardalralty have made some recent inquiries into the progress of the dockyard battalion in drill practice at this yard. The answers have been favourable as re gards the progress of the men under the circumstances, but the reverse as respecting the time devoted to prac tice. The consequence of this has been an order, which comes into operation to-morrow, that half of the men shall be drilled every night. This will bring every man to practice three times a week The total number of the force am.unts to nearly 2,000, of which thirteen companies are infantry and six arallery. A boat brigade, and Captain James's hired men, make up the remainder. A very respectable brass band is in a forward state of organization, amounting already to seventeen per formers.

The Terrible steam-frigate, Captain Ramsey, finished taking her coals on board yesterday at Greenhithe, and was under orders to leave for Sheerness this morning. When the Brighton steam vessel, under the direction of Captain the Hon. G. F. Hotham, arrived yesterday at Greenhithe, and passed between the Amphion and Terrible steam-frigates, Captain the Honourable G. F. Hotham invited Captain Ramsey on board, and that officer pro ceeded round the Nore light in her, and, was so highly gratified with her great speed as to remain on board when she returned to Long-reach, and witnessed the speed of the vessel tested six times up and down the measured mile, and it was ascertained that her progress was 15 knots, or 17i miles per hour, th e greatest spee d ever obtained by any steam-vessel. The Brighton is one of three built by Mr. Thomson, from designs by Mr. Lang, jun.. and constructed of wood, with engines by Messrs. Pons of 160-horse power, on the oscillating principle, with a stroke of 4 feet. The other two vessels for the Brighton Railway Company are to be named the Dit-ppe and New Haven, and intended to run betwixt Brighton and Dieppe, and from thi ir great speed will materidly shorten the passage to France. Captain ; , mithett, of the Garland, the fastest of the Dover packets, was on board the Brighton, and a number of scientific gentlemen interested in the speed of steam vessels.

PADDLE-BOX SAFETY- BOATS. The following is a copy of the reports of Captains Austin and Caffin, concerning the p a ddl e -b ox sa f e t y boats (ju s t laid before Parliament) : " Portsea, March 23, 1847. " Sza,--rln concluding the dutiesl have been charged with, that of directing the operations of heaving the Sphynx off shore, it is my duty to report to you the great value and security that has been afforded through.. out this service by the paddle-box boats which have been employed : namely, two of the first Class, such as were fitted to the Retribution, which has conveyed more than 8. tons ,dead engine weight through a moderate roller; two of the second class, sloop size, employed by the riggers laying out hawsers and other rough work, as well as conveying . a large propor tionate load of dead weight; and two of the Biz.: as fitted to the Porcupine, which were most handy and efficient. And had it not been for these boats, the weighty and valuable parts of the engines could not have been removed to the vessels in the offing, on ac count of the rollers they had to pass; nor could the hawsers have been laid out, or the communication he kept up with the security it has been (for not one accident of any kind has occurred in their use), but for them. Their lightness and buoyancy so particularly fits them for conveying weights over a topping sea, and taking a beach where there is a surf; and I desire much to impress upon you, Sir, the efficiency that would be given to all vessels by having such a description of boat, either steam or sailing vessels (the latter, if one could be conveniently placed), in addi tion to the established number of beats now carried. And further, in coast operations with the fleets, I am fully satisfied that such a description of light buoyant boat is well adapted to supersede the transport fiat a the old construction, used and carried for such opera tions. I am, &c. (Signed) HORATIO T, AUSTIN, Additional Captain William and Mary. Admiral Sir C. Ogle, Bart., &c., Portsmouth. rier Majesty's Steam-sloop Scourge, Cove of Cork, February 13, 1847. Sir—ln obedience to your letter of the 22d January, conveying my Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty's directions for me to report upon the paddle-box boats, their utility, convenience, and applicability to the late various operations in which I was engaged for the relief of the Sphynx, or to services of a similar description, with any other remarks that circum stances may enable me to make respecting these boats —I have the honour to state, for the information of their Lordships, that in the operations for the rescue of the Sphynx I found these boats of the utmost value; indeed, I feel convinced that no other boats could have done the work of laying out anchors and cables, under similar circumstances of surf, which they did. I went through the surf, shortly after my cutter was capsized, in one of the Porcupine's paddle-box boats (which as surf-boats are a most handy size and build), when the surf was so high that I did not deem it prudent to allow the other (and much larger) paddle-box boats with the cables in to venture, and was obliged to buoy them outside, but which she floated over most beautifully. So persuaded am I of their usefulness, that it ap pears to me the strangest thing in the world that all steam-vessels have not got them; and, indeed, I think they ought not to be limited to steamers, as I am sure one or more would be a very great acquisi tion to any man-of-war. My unfortunate cutter when she got into the surf, was served as all such boats must be under similar circumstances ; the surf broke over her stern, and she went down stern foremo-t and rolled over. This cannot (or is not likely to) happen with these boats, from their build and great buoyancy. I had once to go through the surf to seaward from the Sphynx, when it was nearly low water, and each breaker, after passing, left the boat aground. No other but such a build of boat could have stood this ; an ordinary boat would have fallen over on her side and filled with the next breaker. From the arrangement of the oars, that is, from being able to turn and face either end of the boat, and give way, there is no necessity of winding the boat, %i hich in a surf is of the first consideration, as you may either stem the breaker or face about, give way, and keep the boat on the top of it; thus exer cising your judgment for the safety of the boat. As for the stowage room for anchor and cables, you get a much greater quantity with a much less draught of water, as compared with the ordinary ship's launch. I found some difficulty in getting the Scourge's bower anchor, hung by Mr. Cow's plan, through the bottom of the boat, owing to the heavy rolling motion which we had at the time ; and I would recommend that all the paddle-box boats be .fitted with a davit over the stern, as well as the trunks through the bottom of the boat. I would suggest that all paddle steamers, instead of having a pinnace amidships, should have a third paddle-box boat (of the same size exactly as her others) stowed there ; so in the event of losing one, or having it stove and finding it necessary to hoist it in for repairs, the spare one could take its place. The difficulty of hoisting them out and in seems to be the objection which most people have to offer against their usefulness : this ought not to operate in the least against their general adoption, as it can be readily shown this difficulty is much less than with the pinnace amidships. In smooth water it is little more than lowering a quarter boat, but in a heavy sea it is doubtless a difficult task lowering or hoisting them up ; however, under similar circum stances of weather, it would be infinitely less difficult lowering a paddle•box boat than getting the pinnace from off a steamer's booms into the water. In heavy rolling motion two spars or boats masts must be put over, to keep the boat's gunwale from taking under the spring blip - On the 14th of April, 1846, after having exer cised at a target with the 24- pounder carronades which the Scourge's boats are fitted with, I was anxious to see how many men one of them would hold; and everybody I had on board, amounting to 77 men, I put into one, the marines and boat's crew being armed ; and, these, together with the 24-pounder, left her gunwhale amidships 21i inches out of water. I embarked in them upwards of 600 soldiers, wo men, and children, with about 50 tons of baggage and four horses, at Guernsey ; and I am sure, in light marching order, I could land 150 men in each boat without inconvenience. I do not think it desirable that these boats should be too large ; in fact they should be as small as cir cumstances will allow them to be. The last built are a great improvement upon the original ones, having a better bow and stern ; and if they could be given more sheer it would improve them still. The landing of the meal at Skull was wholly done by these boats ; and we put into each 100 sacks, or 12f tons, and pulled on shore without inconvenience. In conclusion, I beg again to say that I feel I can not say enough in praise of these boats ; and I would be permitted to offer one more suggestion—in order that they should be as buoyant as possible, they should be built of cedar, and not of teak or other heavy wood.* I have, &c. J. CRAWFORD CAFFIN, Commander. Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, Bart., &c. Portsmouth. (Signed) These boats are now generally constructed of ma hogany, which is found to answer perfectly, being both light and durable.—W. A. B. Hamilton. EXPERIMENTS with GUN COTTON. (From the Liverpool Courier.) The following i s th e resu l t o f a series of experi ments, made on the 14th i ns t an t, un d er th e directions of Messrs. Ingram and Clarke, of this town, to test the value and utility of gun cotton in mining opera tions, at the works of the Woodhead Tunnel, now being carried o:i by G. C. Pauling, Esq., of Man chester, contractor. There were present to witness the experiments, Mr. H. C. Campbell, Mr. H. J. Pauling, Mr. Sharpe, and Mr. S. Smith, of Man chester, Mr. John Halstead, the company's super intendent, and Mr. John Thornton, of Woodhead, with a number of foremen and officers connected with the works. Experiment No. 1, in No. 1 cross drift, at west end of tunnel, the hole 3 feet 6 inches deep, in hard mill stone grit, with a charge of 10 ounces of cotton, did more execution than any quantity of powder would have done under the same circumstances. Experiment No. 2, in the same place and strata, the hole 3 fret 3 inches deep, 8 ounces cotton did the same execution that is generally done with 3 pounds powder : moved about 2/ tons. Experiment No. 3, in open face, at west end of tunnel, in the millstone grit, hole 4 feet 4 inches deep, 4 feet from face, with a charge of 4 pounds powder, moved 28 tons. Experiment No. 4, in the same face, with a charge of 11 ounces of cotton, 4 feet from face, 3 feet 9 in ches deep, moved 28 tons, but did not throw it about in the same manner that powder does. Experiment No. 5, in the same face, with 8 ounces ni „, e d a great spleo, hut dil not break it. up. Charge appeared too small-6 feet from face, and 5 feet deep.. Experiment No. 6, in same face, with a charge of 8 poun d s p o wder, 6 feet . from face and 5 feet deep, Pitticat SD. the result was the same as in the former experiment, and the charge appeared too weak. Experiment No. 7, in cross drift No. 15, in hard dark shell, a charge of 8 ounces cotton, 3 feet deep, did the same execution that is usually done with 3 pounds powder. Experiment No. 8, in open face, at east entrance of tunnel, a charge of 8 ounces cotton, 4 feet 6 in ches from face, in beds of hard sandstone, rock, and shell, alternating the charge, placed 5 feet 6 inches deep, moved about 14 tons. Experiment No. 2, in the same face, with 10 ounces cotton, placed at 6 feet from the face, and the hole drilled 6 feet deep, that by some mismanagement the cotton was placed at the depth of 3 feet), moved about 16 tons. From the above experiments it will be seen that the results were very satisfactory. and leave na doubt that, from its superior portability, if the price can be so regulated as to make the cost below that of powder, it will entirely supersede it in many of the operations where powder is at present required. In long drifts and headings, where the want of fresh air is severely felt and difficult to be had, the cotton has a decided superiority over that of powder, as it creates no smoke or stench, and the men can return to their work immediately after firing, whereas with powder they are sometimes detained, a considerable period before they can return, which in volves a great loss of labour. DIARY OF A RAILWAY WITNESS. The following is a copy of a diary, to appearance written very hurriedly and rather indistinctly, in a pocket-book found a few days sgo on the streets of Perth. There is no date appended, but from Meant befure and after the following entries, it ap pears to have been written in London about. May or June, 1846. The entries will go a great way to show the manner in which our citizens spend their precious time when they leave their business at such sacrifices, and are so very patriotic as to go to London, and give their evidence pro or con on' particular rail way bills, Monday —Travelled all yesterday. What will my wife say to this, should it reach her ears? When I left home on Saturday morning, I had to make a solemn pro mise toher that I should remain at someplace on the way over Sunday. Arrived in town this morning at six. Went to bed till ten, and breakfasted at eleven. Fine hotel the Euston. Took a cab, went down to West minster. Met nearly all Perth there —amongst the rest two of our bailies, looking very sleek. We had a laugh over our 71. 7s. a day ex-expenses —will make another 21. 2s. No dirty one-pound notes here plenty of gold. Took a stroll with some dozen other witnesses, and saw the Life Guards changing guards at Whitehall. Called down at the com mittee-rooms at half past one to see if my evidence was required. Answer—Not to-day —give us a call to-morrow at twelve, and we will see. Capital time of it this; another 71. 7s. snug. Went to Black wall at five, dined there at six. Heavy bill ! Never mind, the railway pays it all. Capital wine—claret particularly good. Poor B— very drunk ; had some difficulty in getting him up to London. After we got there had oysters at the " Crown." Plenty brandy and water. Another heavy bill! All very much knocked up. Watch stopped; cannot say what time I went to bed, must have been about two a.m. Tuesday—Morning after a debauch—aching head ! Confound those oysters and brandy ! One would re quire to be well paid to live at this rate. Got out of bed at ten—only able to take a cup of tea. Down to the committee-rooms at twelve. Staid three hours. Not called to-day. Got on the trail of an M.P.; procured his order for admission to the House to night. Was there at seven; told strangers' gallery full, must wait ; did so for an hour—got in at last— heard part of a bright speech from Bright. The dull member asleep in the gallery, which, by the way, puts me in mind of an old story set down to the credit of an ex-M.P. of the Fair City. Some of our Perth worthies were in London some dozen years ago; they paid a visit to the House of Commons (as I did this night), and they found their member at his post, but fast asleep. They wrote down to us Perth bodies an account of their visit, and referring us to their worthy M.P., added, "found him asleep, as usual." This no uncommon thing. No wonder—caught myself napping repeatedly. Wednesday—Breakfasted at half-past ten. Walked down to Westminster by the Mall and the Bird- cage walk. Told that it was probable that I would be examined this day. What a dilemma lam in! what am I to say ? However, I determined to have luncheon and some brandy to keep the spirits up. Waited about the committee-rooms until four—never called—heard the cry Speaker at prayers," when off I set. Dined at the Tavistock—borrowed a white stock from the waiter, and went to the opera; paid 10s. for the pit, and ss. for the loan of an opera glass, so as to see the dancers better. I was charmed. To tell the truth, it was not to hear the opera that I went, but to see thelballet—what glorious dancing—l could have sat for ever and witnessed the corps de ballet. Saw Madlle. Taglioni—what figures Home to the Ship in a cab at one. Thursday.—Examined to-day in the Committee of the House of Commons. First question—How much can a horse draw in Scotland? I answered, about two tons. The Committee opened their eyes and stared—this put me very mach out—l suppose it was given as a feeler, to see what sort of a genius I was. Second question—How much I was paid a day ? This was feeler No. 2, with a vengeance. I wished that the floor had opened at this moment and swal lowed me up. They let me off after teasing me for a few moments - and when leaving the witness-box I heard the laugh behind me, some words such as " Scotch dog come to feed upon English beef." Had a glorious dinner this evening—champagne and claret in abundance. Left party and went to the Lyceum—much delighted with Keeley and his wife ; saw the Marble Maiden, also Tom Thumb in a bur lesque—fine dancers here. Left the theatre at eleven, and returned to our dinner party; sat a long time until the party got regularly drunk—as bad as the rest —rose to propose a toast, when • • • Friday noon—Head like to crack, feel one of my temples dreadfully sore, as if I had got a severe knock on it. How or when I got to bed last night I cannot divine ; must ask the waiter, hs tells me that my friends carried me to bed—O conscience ! where art thou ? Sweet mornings that I used to have in Perth return to me. Another glorious din ner. Went to the Judge and Jury at the Garrick's Head this evening. Nearly burst our sides—the interrogators are very clever, and the witty sayings are excellent. Saw B— there. What would my wife say if she knew all this ? However. no fear of her knowing except B— informs, and he is as bad as myself. Got to bed at one. Saturday.—Down the river at Greenwich. Re turned to Blackwall in the evening; dined there, but not on white bait, dinner a nd sundries 16s. each. I F arren and to town at nine. Wen t and s aw and Webster at the Haymarket. Farren excelled at Grandfather Whitehead; Miss Julia Bennett wa, I charming, and I was overpowered. Sunday.—The bells are tolling for service ; the busy throng crowd the streets ; the choirs are filled with the pealing anthems, and—and—here I am in bed ; lam like a giant requiring refreshment. We are to have another glorious Here the diary breaks off most abruptly, and leaves us to ponder on the hero's sojourn in London, nd wonder as to how he was able to get out of the messes he was in. If be wants the pocket-book returned, he can address his request to X. Y. Z., at the Post-office, Perth, when, upon identifying his property, it will be 'restored to him.—Perth Conbtitutional. HIGHWAY ROBBERY IN CANTERBURY.--011 Thurs day last, a man and woman, giving their names George Bates . and Sarah Johnson, alias Steele, were had before our c ity magistrates on a charge of highway robbery, committed u-der the following circumstances:—James Hearn, a small farmer of Harnledown, had occasion :0 comeinto the city on Tuesday evening, and on his re turn home, at about half-past nine o'clock, was accosted by the female prisoner, at the corner of Water-lane, who asked him for the loan of his umbrella, which he refused, but offered her shelter under it if she were going his way. This offer she gladly accepted. and in the course of her talk said she lived as servant close by, and was going for some roasted potatoes, she having at the time a plate and cloth. Previous to parting company, he felt her take his purse, but before he got hold of her the male prisoner used a violent expression, and ran against him, knocking him down. The female took a turn round Westgate-grove, her companion running the same way. The prosecutor raised the cry of " stop this f," a I tn .be e u a .t f e l htalil_t on which the male prisoner returned and kno, k d h „.... t , , E n down again, but he could not say whether by str'k . , f , Whitehall-road, Prosecutor iteha i.r o a d g , or simply iunning against him.

The Isaac's bridge was replaced a week since, an.l it is at this moment standing, as there was no app-arance of ice in the Ladoga.

We learn, from good authority, that a law respecting the German press, which has been so much talked of; will be decided in a few weeks in tne German Diet. The press itself has become rather quiet respecting the law in the• press, though this should seem to be the moment to direct public attention more than ever to the subject.

This opportunity of gratifying the man of science and the student in zoology lute only been obtained by great personal exertion on the part of the gentlemen who have brought them to England, at an immense outlay of capital. On the passage to Europe a baby was born at sea, thus adding to the great interest that must be excited by their appearance. From the Liverpool Journal : —" Bosjesmans, or Bush People, from Southern Africa —Interesting specimens of a most extraordinary race of human beings have been landed in our port; the are the Bosjes. mans, or Bush People from the interior of South Africa, of which so much has been written by the Missionaries, and the few who have travelled to that far distant region. They are natives of the country bonier ng the Great Orange River, 1,200 or 1 400 miles from Cape Town. They exhibit almost as striking an absence of the intelle teal or higher faculties as is observable in the skull of that mockery of snamanity, the Baboon, while the preponderance of the animal is al atoA equally as great. In every respect they are calculated to excite the greatest astonishment, and to confirm to the full those " Tales of Travellers" which we have certainly been inclined to look upon with su.picion.

They so perfectly reiemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will never change col ur or t . ectiy, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and, that Mr. Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical, he has fixed his charges at the lowest scale possible.

STATE OF TRADE. NORWICII.—This city begins to ftel a general de pression of trade in all its branches, owing to the state of the money market. Our mohair manufacture, which )„,enerally employs about 2.000 hands, ices been, and is, partnnly suspended. The Albion mills are closed, Lakenhaui mills are doing little, and the yarn factory is not in full wnrk. Lie silk mills are e , , t working full time, and employment is also falling orr in other manufactures. B.,th in tbe city and county, shopkeepers complain of the stagnation of trade, and travellers cannot obtain orders to anything like the usual extent at this sersen. This state of things is attributed in a gre.:a. measure to excessive railway sp?ciattion. Qiiiint:s on this subject are much at variance, as opinions always will he, without. a proper foundation of facts. Some who have been injured by railways consider that they will be the ruin of the country, while others, who have been greatly benefited by them, maintain, that the country could not have gone on without them. In this district, as well as in others, railways have had the cifect of stimulat ing trade to some extent, by bringing buyers from a distance. The supply and distribution of goods from the city warehouses and shops are car ried on by a far less number of persons than might at first be supposed. The railway has had the effect of diminishing rather than incressing the merely distributive and n'ol carrying trade of the city, and the increase of railways in any direction will cer tainly have that effect to a still greater extent, be cause country shopkeepers naturally prefer going to the original markets for goods to buying from pat terns and samples. At the same time the railways have given our wholesale h,:uses more speedy arid easier access to country districts, and more particu larly to the fen • district, where they do a large business. In respect to our manufactures, railways have been highly beneficial as a means of rapid transit; but in consequence of the excess of railway speculation having diverted capital, to a great extent, out of it; legitimate channel, many mills in the North are now entirely closed, and scene mills in this city, as before stated, are either closed or not in full work. This, considering the high prices of pi ()visions at the present time, is a very serious matter. It is certain, however, that our fancy goods trade has very considerably revived within the last two years • that a far greater extent of business_ t has been done than formerly, and that some of our manufacturers have not been able to execute their orders in the time required. They now produce cheap fancy goods, for which there has been a great demand, which still continues, and if designing we're more encouraged this trade inli.:l - n. 119. still further in creased. ...Norwich is niesurpas..- , 3. •1, the (:uellency of her fabries, but, as yet, 1.:0 hole little towards rivalling the French or Sc:, c.: el , I•14W.
