Having witnessed the great explosion at Dover, on Thurs day, the 26th, from the summit of the cliff next adjoining it to the southward, and from the nearest point to which any access was permitted, I would gladly place on record, in your valuable journal, some features of this magnificent operation, which struck me at the time as extremely remarkable. These features are the singular and almost total absence of all those tumultuous and noisy manifestations of power which might naturally be expected to accompany the explo sion of so enormous a quantity (19,000 lb.) of gunpowder, and which formed, I have no doubt, the chief attraction of many who came from great distances to witness it—viz., noise, smoke, earthquake, and fragments hurled to vast dis- tances through the air. Of the noise accompanying the explosion, I can only de scribe it as a low murmur, lasting hardly more than half a second, and so faint, that bad a companion at my elbow been speaking in an ordinary tone of voice, I doubt not it would have passed unheeded. Nor was the fall of the cliff (nearly 400 feet in height, and of which no less than 400,000 cubic yards were, within an interval of time hardly exceeding ten seconds, distributed over the beach on an area of 18 acres, covered to an average depth of 14 feet, and in many parts from 30 to 50) accompanied with any considerable noise ; certainly with none which attracted my own attention, or that of several others similarly stationed, with whom I af- terwards compared notes. A pretty fresh breeze from the south-west might be regarded as influential in wafting it away, were it not that the fall took place under the lee of the cliff on whose edge we were stationed. The entire absence of smoke was another and not less re markable feature of the phenomenon. Much dust, indeed, curled out at the borders of the vast rolling and undulating mass, which spread itself like a semi-fluid body, thinning out in its progress ; but this subsided instantly ; and of trace smoke there was absolutely not a vestige. Every part of the surface was immediately and clearly seen—the prostrate* flagstaff (speedily re-erected in the place of its fall)—the broken turf which a few seconds before had been quietly growing at the summit of the cliff—and every other detail of that extensive field of ruin—were seen immediately in all their distinctness highest part of the expanding mass, while yet in rapid mo tion, my attention was attracted by a tumultuous and up ward-swelling motion of the earth, whence I fully expected to see burst forth a volume of pitchy smok and from which my present impression is, that gas, purified from carbona ceous matter in passing through innumerable fissures of cold and damp material, was still in progress of escape ; but whe ther so or not, the remark made at the moment is sufficient to prove the absence of any impediment to distinct vision. As regards the amount of tremor perceived, I must con fess having speculated with some little anxiety on the proba: ability of the abrupt at tood ; and might therefore The Duke of Northumberland, it is not generally known, is a freeman of the city of Durham, by patrimony. His right is derived from Sir Hugh Smithson, who was admitted a mem ber of the butchers' company, A.D. 1700. A requisition is now in process of signature in London, in viti❑g Dr. Chalmers to come to the metropolis during the sitting of parliament, and deliver a course of lectures on the present position of the Church of Scotland. OPPOSITION OF FANATICISM.—WhiIe Miller is proclaim ing the end of the world to be next year, one Dr. J. Smith is lecturing at New York and telling the people matter is eternal. Rescues of cattle distrained for poor-rates have occurred in many parts of Kerry. A man named Courtenay, from Glanmon, was lately committed to gaol for attempting to run the rate collector through wth a hay-fork. Lord Jocelyn has resigned his situation as Steward of the Household to his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant. Mr. Seymour, who is married to Lady Emily Murray, the sister of Lord Mansfield, will be his successor. A female, respectably connected, and said to have an in come of £4OO per annum, lias been committed for trial at Southampton, charged with stealing three pairs of children's shoes. Bail to the amount of £BOO was afterwards taken. ANY OTHER DESCRIPTION.—An analysis of the various parliamentary returns relative to the poor-rates, &c., from 1747 to 1841, a period of 94 years, has been eompiled by J. Rowbotham, Esq., at the request of E. Wodehouse, Esq., M.P., which furnishes the following indisputable facts: — With regard to the comparative amount paid by land, and by other descriptions of property, such as dwelling-houses, mills, factories, &c., and manorial profits, which is the only classification that appears to have been laid before parlia ment, I have referred to the Appendix E, p. 14, attached to the report from a select committee on poor-rate returns, 1824 (420); to the account of the amount levied by assess ment in England and Wales for the year ending 25th March, ordered to be printed Ist March, 1827 (No. 120); and also abstract of returns for the year ended 25th March, 1833, printed by order of the Ilouse of Commons, 27th May, 1834 (No, 335). By computing from the abstracts of re turns, for the year ended March 25, 1833, I find that land has paid on poor-rate assessment the sum of £255,150,063 Dwelling-houses 123,716.217 Mills, factories, &c. Manorial profits, &c 8,652,285 '. Total amount of assessment in 94 years £404,065,955 Hence it appears that land has paid £lO6 per cent. more than dwelling-houses, and £1,442 per cent. more than mills, fac tories, &c. By taking the average on the abstract of returns for the years 1823, 1826, and 1833, it is found that on assess ment Land paid.... Dwelling-houses 112,687,055 Mills, factories, &c. Manorial pro fits, &c 6,741,552 Total.. According to these estimates, land has paid £l3B per cent. more than houses, and £1,625 per cent. more than mills, factories, &c. ; and £99 per cent. more than dwelling-houses, mills, factories, &c., and manorial profits combined, whether on assessment or for relief of the poor. Or, land paid 66'5 per cent.; houses, 27'9 ; m ills, factories, &c., 3'9 ; and ma norial profits, I'7.—Berwick Warder. CAPTLRE OP A CORPSE.—On Monday a Car was stopped at the corporation toll-bar, Lee-road, by the collector, who demanded toll for the contents of a box that was on the car. The carrier offered to pay, but declared his ignorance of the contents, on which the collector broke open the box, when, to his astonishment, he discovered a corpse. A crowd in stantly collected, and it was with difficulty that the people were prevented from inflicting summary punishment on the carrier, his wife, and a boy, who accompanied him, another man that was with him having escaped. The police was then sent for, and four of them took the parties into custody, and were conveying them and the corpse to, the Bridewell, when, the crowd having increased to a large mass, a rush was made on the prisoners, and, had it not been for a reinforcement of constabulary that arrived, the prisoners would in all proba bility have been murdered. When they arrived• at the Bride well. the carrier produced a note, purporting to be from Dr. Madras, of Coachford, to a surgeou in this city, belonging to the College Buildings Anatomical School, certifying, in con formity with the provisions of the Anatomy Act, the name and age of the deceased, the disease, which was fatal, an d that he died naturally; This certificate, the right worshipful the Mayor bad transmitted to Dr. D. B. Bullen, Anatomical Inspector, who immediately proceeded to the Bridewell, and, haviug examined the body, said that if the subject was legally procured, as he presumed it was, from the physician's certificate, the corpse should be given to the school for dis section, and the prisoners liberated. However, i n th e course of the day, a man named Herli h y identified the body as that of his brother-in-law, John Lane, which was a fortnight since i w n a t s er s r t e o d le i n n t a he g r r e a f v r e om in . the , parish rhenrp o r f ie A to ha rs b o u f llo t g he ue, seh a o n o d l thatrefo refuse to claim the body, and deny having any knowledge of its being procured for them. In consequence of these statements, the Mayor sent for H. E. Jones, Esq., coroner, and directed him to hold an inquest. The coroner says that he will confine his inquiry to the mere fact of the cause of the death, and leave all other matters to the Inspector of Anatomy. Should the body have been stolen from the grave, the parties who disinterred it are liable to be transported for f e lo n y, w hil e those who were concerned in its illegal transmit are liable to heavy penalties under the Act for the Government of Schools of Anatomy. The matter has created the greatest possible excitement.—Cork Constitution. ................. i .............xisoccammawomorwaemme TELEGRAPH OFFICE, FEB. 9 moderate at 8 a.m. ; E.N .

The impression, slight as it was, was single and brief, and must have origi nated with the first shock of the powder, and not from the subsequent and prolonged rush of the ruins, which I can positively say communicated no perceptible tremor whatever. I have not heard of a single scattered fragment flying out as a projectile in any direction, and altogether the whole phenomenon was totally unlike anything which, according to ordinary ideas, could have been supposed to arise from the action of gunpowder. Strange as it may seem, this con trast between the actual and the expected effects gave to the whole scene a character rather of sublime composure than of headlong violence, of graceful ease than of struggling effort. How quietly, in short, the gigantic power employed performed its work, may be gathered from the fact that the operators themselves who discharged the batteries were not aware that they had taken effect, but thought the whole affair a failure, until re-assured by the shout which bailed its suc cess. The remarkable absence of noise and tremor which cha racterised this operation is explained by the structure of chalk as a material, and by the rifty state of the cliff as a body. Of all substances, perhaps chalk is the worst adapted for conveying sound, and the best for deadening the vibra tion propagated through it by a heavy blow. The initial hammer-like impulse of the newly created gas on the walls of the chambers of the mines (of which it must be recollected there were three, simultaneously exploded) was doubtless thus deadened by traversing at least 75 feet of chalk, even in the shortest direction, or line of least resistance ; and this must have taken place before the mass could have been sen sibly moved from its seat by the expansive force generated, which, however vast, proved incapable (as indeed it was ex pressly provided it should be) to communicate to its enor mous load any greater velocity than barely sufficient to rift and bulge it outwards, leaving gravity to do the rest. No thing can place in a more signal light the exactness of calcu lation which (basing itself on a remarkably simple rule, the result of long practical experience) could enable the eminent engineer (Mr. Cubitt), by whom the whole arrangements are understood to have been made, so completely to task to its utmost every pound of powder employed, as to exhaust its whole effort in useful work, leaving no superfluous power to be wasted in the production of useless uproar or mischievous dispersion, and thus saving at a blow not less than £7,000 to the railway company. I have the honour to be, &c Collingwood, Jan. 31, 1843 J. F. W. HERSCIIEI * It has been stated that the flagstaff continued erect, but this if I can credit the distinct evidence of my own senses) is incor- The brig Liberty, of Sunderland, was wrecked off Redcar on Saturday last, and the master and four seamen perished. One youth alone was saved. She was 200 tons burden. From Christiania we learn that, during the violent storm on the 4th ult., a fishing-boat, with 40 men on board, foun dered off the islands of Haviding, and every soul was drowned, it being impossible for any assistance to reach. Loss OF THE SHIP GEORGE MTEOD.—lntelligence was in the course of Friday received by the underwriters at Lloyd's of the destruction of another Indianian, named the George M'Leod, with a valuable cargo of rum and 3,700 bags of sugar on board, by running upon a hard sandbank on the coast of Scotland, in the Solway Frith, within a few miles northward of Southerness, on Sunday night. She was, like the ill-fated Reliance, Conqueror, and J homeward bound. All the wrecks occurred within a very few hours' sail of the places of destin^f M'Leod was conarnan6d by Captain W The George crew of 16, besides officers and mates. She was of about 600 tons burden in measurement, being the property of Messrs. Leishman and Huntly, merchants, residing at Glas gow, and sailed from the Mauritius in the early part of November last for the Clyde. At the time (3 o'clock in the morning) the wind was blowing almost a gale from the north west. They had all sail shortened, and hopes were manifes ted that the vessel would reach the Clyde by 12 o'clock that day ; the light was perceptable, and the utmost hilarity pre vailed amongst the crew ; but suddenly she struck, and it was discovered, that instead of the Clyde they had been steering for, they had run the vessel upon one of the most dangerous sands along the coast of Scotland; and the light they supposed to be the safety beacon at the entrance of the Clyde, was one to denote danger. The yards were instantly backed, in the hopes of her floating off, but finding that in effectual other means were adopted, but all in vain ; for as the tide advanced, every wave threw the ship higher up upon the bank, and her situation became more and more perilous. The crew exerted themselves to save her, and, as a last resource, the mast and rigging were cut away. This was use iess ; she rapidly filled, and was laid upon her beam ends, with the whole of her broadside under water. The boats were lowered, and preparations were made for abandoning her, for the gale was increasing with foggy weather. Accor dingly, at 7 o'clock the crew lowered Captain Murdoch over the ship's side into the boat, and having got in themselves they pushed off for the shore. At that time the sea was making a clear sweep over the ship. The crew laboured hard at their oars until 10 o'clock in the forenoon, when they came in sight of Southernness Lighthouse, which they succeeded in reaching in a short time. All of them suf. fered dreadfully from the cold, but particularly Captain Murdoch, who lay in the bottom of the boat apparently dead. Upon being taken ashore every possible assistance was ren dered by the inhabitants of the town, and several medical gentlemen were in attendance upon the unfortunate captain He shortly afterwards rallied, but only a little, and his dis solution is hourly expected. The crew having recruited their strength, in the afternoon proceeded in a boat with a party of pilots down to the wreck. Upon arriving at the sands not a vestige of the ship or cargo was to be found. She bad gone to pieces. The spot where she bad struck was opposite Drumruff, between Balcarry Bay and Southernness. On Tuesday last portions of the wreck, namely, a head-board with the name " George M'Leod" painted on it. and the top of the round house were picked up by a sailing smack between Port Carlisle and Skenburness. THE ESTATICA AT YOUGHAL. — UIIder this head the Cork Examiner treats the public to a letter frem a Roman Ca tholic priest, named Foley, addressed to another clergyman of the same persuasion, detailing a series of miracles now in full work at a convent in Youghal, which threaten, if not to eclipse, at least to equal, the Alpine wonders witnessed by Lord Shrewsbury. Of course, it was not to be supposed but that many persons were rather incredulous with respect to the alleged miracles of the Munster Adolorata, which, ac cording to Father Foley, "are now shining brighter than ever in Youghal." A few passages from the narrative of this somewhat credulous gentleman may be perused with amuse ment :—" But among the many wonders I have seen at the castle, this seems not to be the least; it is that this dear vir tuous girl, who is a near relation of my own, and who is now so much calumniated, predicted the night before hand that a certain class of persons would come to visit her on the fol lowing morning, and that they would, &c. The five of us who had heard the predilection were much surprised to see it on the next morning verified to the letter. Something simi lar 1.4,41 happane,l to the afflicted adolorata at Caldaro, when s he said ; ' There is now a ?hysician on his way to see me,who will annoy rne very much. These gentlemen whom you have mentioned to me have seemed displeased, as they had not witnessed the wonders they wished to see, as if the Almighty should bow to us and gratify our curiosity by exhibiting things so plainly to our view as not to leave a shadow of doubt upon our minds. They went off, lam told, discon tented, and thought themselves authorised to pronounce, without scruple, that all the work was pure imposition. What will they think when they hear that many witnesses are ready to prove, upon oath, that upon that very same day, after these curious persons bad gone off, there was blood vi sibly seen upon this woman's head, upon her hands, upon her feet, and upon her side ? I know a man can be found who will say, perhaps, she had a nail or a needle with which she could perforate her hands, feet, and side. I leave the judg ment of that man to the judgment of an enlightened public, and to the awful judgment of an angry God. To resume, in a word or two, the question is this,—Father Foley, though a pious priest, as they say, is one of the greatest dupes that ever stood on ground. He has been selected by the bishop of the diocese to direct a pious community of nuns in Youghal. Many, and very many persons, have always thought him to be an enlightened director of souls, yet with all his science and sanctity he is now the fool of fools : he is credulous beyond conception. For months, nay, for almost years, he has had two persons in his establishment who are practising under his eyes the greatest villanies that were ever practised by a woman, and yet he cannot detect them. The author of such opinions must add too, yes! he is deceived by a woman, a near relative of his own, an always pious girl, whom he saw elevated over ground in prayer, whom he often saw in ectasy ; from whose ^ blood hands he often saw the Ring at L Ile our of holy communion, and from whose lips has beard many things regarding the passion of Christ, and the sufferings of his blessed mother, things which arena to be told now, but which will be related in their proper time. I have, dear rev. sir, written to the bishop of this dic cese, and invited his lordship to come and see what I hay witnessed.

Sir ROBERT PEEL—The inhabitants of the town of Greenock have prepared an address to Sir Robert Peel, con gratulating him on his late escape from assassination, when it was the fate of the unfortunate Mr. Drummond to be murdered by M'Naughten. Mr. J. B. Butler, of the Ennis poor law union, asserts the absentees of Clare draw away £200,000 a-year ; and he ad vises a charge of five per cent. on their estates, which will al most defray half the expense of the several workhouses in that county. LANCASTER BANKING COMPANY.—The sixteenth annual meeting of the proprietors of this bank took place on Tuesday last, when, as we are informed, the directors made a satis factory report of the state of the company's affairs, and de clared a dividend of 10 per cent. The election of a member to serve in parliament for the University of Dublin is fixed to take place on Friday (to -day). No rival candidate appearing in the field, it is understood that Mr. George Alexander Hamilton will be unanimously elected. REDUCED CHARGES TO COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS. — The iukeepers of Dorset and Devonshire have reduced the price of oats from sd. to 4d. per quartern ; and beans have been lowered in the same proportion. The charge for break fast is ls. 6d. instead of ls. 9d., with meat. On Wednesday evening last some evil-disposed person set fire to a straw-stack on the farm of Mr. Hall, of Frettenham, tenant to Lord Suffield. The stack contained from 30 to 40 loads of straw, and was consumed, as were some bullock sheds, to which the fire extended. The official account of imports and exports at the ports of the Clyde shows a falling off of £22,228 9s. 2d. in the Cus toms' revenue on the year 1812 as compared with 1811. This may not be thought large, considering the amount of the gross revenue drawn in the Clyde. The adjourned inquest on the body of the woman whose trunk, so horribly mutilated, was discovered a few days since in the river Aire, near Leeds, was held o❑ Monday, and fur ther adjourned to the 20th instant. The affair remains veiled in mystery. The Courrier de Lyon has the following from the Gi ronde :—" La %Cole has been completely laid under water. This part of the country is a vast lake. The village of Bard has almost disappeared. Only the steeple of the church re mains to show that it was an inhabited spot." Mr. Speakman, the secretary to Earl Jersey, the Master of the Horse, has decamped, and his defalcations, it is said, ex ceed £lO,OOO, though this is doubted by many. His net salary was £7OO per annum, with perquisites. Mr. George Lewis, lately clerk to the stables in the household of the Queen Dowager, has been appointed his successor. A new varnish, manufactured of naphtha, is in future to be substituted for the paint now applied to the outside of the iron water tanks of her Majesty's ships, the cost of which is only one-fourth that of paint. The varnish has been well tested, and proved to be perfectly efficacious, and is applicable to all sorts of wood and metal. Mr. Ellis stated at a Lyceum lecture in Boston a few days ago, that the greatest discoveries of future ages would pro bably be made by electro-magnetism—not animal magnetism —that water could be seperated into its component gases and burned to light our houses and cook our food, and then re combine and form into water again ! What wonders are we to have nest. The Helvetic , says :—" Whilst Mont St. Bernard and all the lateral valleys are covered with snow, the Simplon is almost free from it. and it is as easily passed as in the sum mer. So mild a winter .haq not been experienced there for many years. The wind has, indeed, at times been very high, but no calamity has occurred, no avalanche has fallen, and no traveller has been impeded in his passage." THE 'WEATHER IN RoME.—A letter from Rome of the 19th ult., published in the Journal des Debats, states that tne cold increases daily, and water is frozen not only in the streets, but in the interior of the houses.

The affair has given rise to considerable agitatioi amongst the shareholders, and will no doubt act as a cautioi to other railway boards. NEWLY-INVENTED OPERA STALL.—The German papers relate, that, at Feece, a fat English dilettante, not being able to find a seat in the house unlet for the season, paid XlOO fur a chair, to be let down from the ceiling. On the first night of his enjoying this privilege, the audience were lost in silent amazement when he came down through the trap-door near the lustre, sitting in state ; but when they found he had not come there to sing, an uproar ensued ; and our British hero, in his efforts to) resist being hoisted back by the frightened impresario, lost his seat, and fell on the heads of the audi ence ; for which divers injuries and actions for damages have ensued.

His eldest son, Mr. Christopher William Codrington, M.P. for East Gloucester. shire, who succeeds to the family property, married, Decem ber 29, 1836, Lady Georgiana Somerset, second daughter of the Duke of Beaufort, by his first marriage. The deceased represented Tewkesbury in the House of Commons for some years, having been elected for that borough in 1807. BAD MATCHES.-Mr. Bim was seized with a bad pain in his stomach the other night, and got out of his bed to look for his hot drops. From the usual place on the mantlepiece he took up what he supposed to be a row of matches, and one after another he snapped them off without effect, and as he threw down the last he gave vent to his vexation, by ex claiming, " Dang it, these matches won't go." His wife now came to his assistance, and upon the other end of the mantlepiece found some matches, and having obtained a light, the tlrst object that met the astonished eyes of both was the head of her best tortoiseshell comb, with every tooth broken out, and thrown upon the floor. As Mr. Bim stood looking agast at the destruction worked by his own misguided hands, Mrs. B. cast a reproachful glance at him, and retired to her bed without uttering a syllable.—Boston Post.

A SOLDIER'S GRAVE.—A scene, not often witnessed in Oswestry, took place on Tuesday. Private John Henderson of the 73d Rerriment, with two comrades, halted in the town on Friday night. on their return from Scotland. Henderson had taken cold on the passage from Glasgow to Liverpool, and was very ill. On Saturday morning, quite conscious of approaching dissolution, he requested to see a minister. The Rev. J. Jones, of Trinity, immediately attended him, and at two o'clock be was a corpse, and his companions cn the march. His remains were carried to the grave in military parade, preceded by a fife and muffled drum, followed by a coporal of the Guards, and a corporal and private of the 66th Regiment, and twelve veteran pensioners, very respectably dressed, and wearing hatbands. The procession was con ducted b y Mr. Smith, of the Police-office, formerly of the Grenadier Guards,who was gratified in being enabled to bury the poor fellow decently, by subscription, raised amongst a few friends. It is a subject of bitter remark, that not one comrade—no not a man—bearing even a button of the gallant 73d could be found in the mournful march, although a com pany of that regiment is now barracked within thirty miles of Henderson's grave. An immense concourse of people at tended on the occasion, and many were the comments made at the last scene of the strange soldier.— Shropshire Journal. ATTEMPTED ikTURDER.—NEWBURY, FEB. 7.—The whole of the day this quiet little town has been thrown into a state of the greatest excitement, in consequence of its becoming generally known that a most determined attempt at murder took place on Saturday evening, at the theatre of Mr. Oliver, Bartholomew -street, Newbury. On inquiry it turned out, that whilst Mr. H. Cuthbert, the leading actor in the com pany, was standing on the stage at the close of the perfor mances on Saturday evening, he heard a scream in the pit, and, looking over the orchestra, saw Mr. Hall, the leader of the band, stagger, and, placing his hand to his back, ex claim that he had been stabbed. Ile immediately jumped Into the pit, where he saw Mrs. Hall lying on the floor be tween the seats bl ee di ng pro fusely from a wound in her hand. Imagining her husband had done it, he gave her in care of some . one on the st age , and returned to the pit, where he found Hall lying across one of the benches, bleeding copi ously from two frightful wounds, one in the back and ano ther in the shoulder. He was taken on the stage, where Mr. Hooper, a surgeon of the town, was directly in attendance, and dressed the wounds. The unfortunate man was then removed to his lodgings in a very dangerous state. During the time Mr. Hooper was in attendance on Mr. Hall, the wretched woman was in all alarmingly outrageous state, calling him " her dear George." Mr. Boone! . then dressed the wound in her hand , which was ouly superficial. She was perfectly sober, and refused to give any account of the tran saction. On searching the pit, a large pigkrine covered with blood was picked up near the spot. On subsequent inquiry it was found she had borrowed it a short time previous of a butcher in the neighbourhood. Jealousy has been assigned as the cause for the rash attempt. The wretched woman has been over since in a state bordering on insanity. She was formerly Miss Rogers, daughter of a provincial actor, and has been but lately married to Hull. in Mr. Hooper sta ted, that had the wound been any lower the back, instant death must have ensued.

The intelligence from India, per Overland Mail, is not likely to exercise any particular influence over the market, either pro or con. COTTON MARKET, FEBRUARY g. The business done in Cotton this week is on a more extensive scale, particularly the last two or three days, nevertheless the tone of the market is very inanimate and dull, and prices considerably lower. Yesterday, 6,000 bales were sold, and to.day, about the same quantity. Speculators have been daily in the market, and have operated to a considerable extent, particularly in the lower descriptions of American Cotton, which is shewn freely, and sales almost forced. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, FEBRUARY 7 Prime Malting Barley, being wanted by the maltsters, and still scarce, would, if at hand, realise an amendment of Is. per qr. ; but in Grinding samples, or in Malt, Beans, or Pease, the slightest improvement appeared unattainable. Oats, although in short supply, were in very limited re quest, and the turn cheaper. Oatmeal, on the contrary, was taken off a little more freely, and rather exceeded the cur rency of this day week, reputed marks of Irish obtaining 21s 6d per 2401b5. TIDE TABLE Days. I Mm.
