WRONGS OF SHIPMASTERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIRES. Sir,—l expressed ; publicly, an intention to offer remarks on. the examination of merchant captains. With every desire to save your valuable space, per haps I may be allowed, to assume that in my last letter in the Northern Times, of the 16th inst., sufficient was said to prove that some radical change in the mode of examination is called - for, and that so long as we permit the substitution of Mere hurried or hastily got up attainments to exclude or supplant sound knowledye, examination must lose the respect which a fair test of competency ought to demand, both from the public and from those examined. I would ask the indulgence of your readers, while considering the actual position in which we find the art of navigation itself, as prac tised in 1857. A general belief prevails that the System of navigation pursued in the British Empire ss as near perfection as most other things in this enlightened age. In many individual cases in the merchant service, and perhaps as a general rule in R. M. navy, little more can be desired ; but in the wide merchant service itself, and in the large majo rity of cases, where no extraordinary taste for Mathematics renders the study of natural astro nomy a pleasure, and where no easy access to so sub lime a pursuit is provided for the ship-captain, his compulsory " cram" for that which is at present erroneously considered by Government as suffi cient to form the navigator, is a mere farce. Nay, it is a delusion dangerous to the public interest. I might, as intended, have adduced abundant proofs of it, had not a correspondent in the columns of yesterday's Shipping Gazette, who signs himself " An Examiner," used this remarkable confession, viz., " That nearly double the number of losses, to e (at sea) were due to the passed or competent masters--that the system of examination must be bad when such a state of affairs can exist"—while he adds, " The examiners in navigation and sea manship have not a single line to guide them, but each is left to work out the business of the Board of Trade, after his own peculiar fashion, against which titers is no appeal:" In considering then, generally, the test of navigation as now and recently practised, I have often been struck with one extraordinary fact, viz., that little progress has been made—perhaps no real advance has been effected—in nautical astronomy for a very long series of years. It may surprise many to hear so Sweeping an assertion from one who has some Pretension to experience ; yet it is truth. How is it, that while science pours forth monthly its dis- Ooveries to the promotion of advance in other branches of study which are based on mathe matics, and that while we are peering into th e mysteries of nature, and subduing the elements to our rule, and bending them to our pur. Pose—that while the minds of men are seeking every novelty wherewith to amuse, every iulprovement wherewith to benefit the civilized human race, the one " art of navigation" is posi tively at so low an ebb of general practical utility, that not only do masters of the art revile the slovenly garb in which we dress it, but that, could our great, great grandfathers revisit the resorts of Maritime commerce, and who would be lost in admiration at our improved mechanical and instru mental contrivances, and " tabular" helps, they Would despise the shallow and obscene formula Which usurp the place of the sound, wholesome, 41 1c1 appreciated science in which, some 200 years since, they themselves were proficients How is It that, while the physical sciences have vied with Mechanical improvements in aid of the sailor, our ships (so far as precautions are taken by the executive, with all our boasted " boards" and inspections") are still commanded by men who are denied the ordinary advantages which assist even the work of the common operative, and Vhten his labour.' Will those who incline to gain say my assertions deny that one half of the tables and diagrams which appear as new in many of our 'scent works on navigation—nay, that even some a ssumed "inventions"—patented "inventions," of very recent date are to be found, which were. to my knowledge, described and figured some 150 or 200 sears since ? In some future letter I may have wor e to say on this, without in any way disparag ing the names of many whose publicly acknow 'edged and meritorious labours have, by their mental contributions, partly hidden the deformity 0 1 a system„ although by planting sightly flowers around the sapless trunk. Anise eee e te;ese, se;Fi Lieu- ienerns, tine oureen wit h the weight of their luxuriance, the once green and thriving stem, and now but hasten its decay.

If Ibe suppo se d t o e '' ) e r r in my conclusions, abundant p roo f s th a t I am Ilirtect could be at once brought forward Now, '2Y object is to show the folly of go v ernmen t atta ching cr i so much importance to what is in itself fal l a cious, and in rendering such folly the more esrese eious by using certificates thus obtained, as a mea ns 0 f flagellation.

But why should this us longer permitied ? Our forefathers did not reject peeper:, examinations—nor do we. For Il l:swards of 120 years the Board of Trinity presided over this department and, exam liitions were conducted by men of well-known co mpetency, to try the aspirant f or comman d ; t u n while its decision was entirely satisfactory to bu,! 3 mercantile marine, its functions entailed no LL he n upon shipmasters. No sooner did a Go vernment Board of Trade usurp the task, than e g_ r ieyances too painful to be borne heel our ill ed commanders. Th e l an d smen p u bli c can thee little knowl e d ge of the injuries practised b y "ue Mercantile Mari ne tak e y Act. As only one of many, example within my own experience of the Past week. A respected shipmaster of twenty-six T r u i _ s t an ding, who, years, since, passed at the t r ,?ltY Board with every credit, and has his eerti ,b'aEe as master, is now desirous, after a five or six " ae e t lrs rest on shore, to proceed again to sea. He uallY has spent five weeks in obtaining the q ui site information from head quarters and sub °mi, th at n a Les, and finally, has the mortification to learn, to obtain a new certificate under the Board -tradehe ee sit must, at the age of fifty-five be content wo rk again, with others, at the school-desk, and he.r.,l:rproblems which his testimonials from a still vea_r of T rad e , more competent, authority than the ee u " Trade, declare be perfectly understood I ears since, or he cannot now obtain such I, ce rtificate as will enable him to command a ship c es av in her Majesty's troops on board. Now, ttsai g ne this fine old sailor, should war break out, Ni • or fZug his command to a youngster of say three h i r-and-twenty, who possesses not one tithe of Pe asiekxnpoerlience, pe rhaps ,h not one hundreth of his b ut ts edge, o f ground-w or k of navigation, 4 0 merely, on the strength of of certain 41l ocio u shallow and ea sb " crammingprescribed and t ic,. rules, attested by a certain " certificate," s ae ulys the veteran master from his charge, and a ct ee e „IneCeaellee ! Is it not monstrous ? I a pp ea l or t herefore, to the makers of the laws in b e h a lf tete t herefore, men, whose cause I have long disin ttealtedlY advocated ; for circumstances (partly jeCe n tal) have closed the ears of th e ‘ e litive against them for a time —but 41 1 upon the whole reading and intelligent 1 public—upon you, shipowners and underwriters, especially of London and Liverpool—to step boldly forward, and by a plain constitutional expression of opinion, to aid these shipmasters, your best friends, and most faithful servants, and procure for them that redress which is essential to your own best interests. Whatever some'may suppose, your interests are indissolubly linked together. Now as to the change to be expected, I would strongly advise a proper test of a man's ability before being entrusted with life and property. That such can really be effected, it is not difficult to show. Why not make that which is now a rod and a terror, an honourable and pleasant induction into pro fessional life ? Let the certificate once ob tained be inviolate—for wilful crime or gross neglect punish a shipmaster as you would another criminal—but for error in judgment extend to him that consideration and mercy which you dare not refuse to any other so important class in the British community. I cannot but some times fear that it is a great mistake in those who would repose all authority in examinations on the officers of the government. Have not shipowners, underwriters, and the public themselves, a means of checking crime, insubordination, the evils of in competency, recklessness, and interference in ship masters ? Rely upon it, scarcely a man sails out of any port in England, in command of a ship, who has not a well-known character. Who would en trust his goods and life, and perhaps his solvency, to a man of ill repute? Might not owners them selves be allowed to decide on what men to employ, or which reject? The law seems aggressive when it assumes a power so onerous, and I hope thousands will assemble peacefully to oppose, or at least well weigh, this law. If any individual like myself might seek to root up the withered trunk, and plant in its place a healthy tree—one capable of bearing fruit to all ages—one serving as a common stock, on which hereafter to engraft new buds—and institute a species of exami nation sufficient to justify the award of cer_ tificates of real competency, so far as mathe_ matins are concerned, and this without impos ing further toil in the preparation for such a test, it should be after this manner. As navigation is solely based on two branches of study, each in its way vary attractive and seductive when properly explained (I challenge the world to disprove this), and as all the evils which beset now the position of shipmasters arise from neglect of these, I would respectfully suggest that in plain and spherical trigonometry let more attention be given to pro jection. Let every aspirant for command be trained first to answer questions in the sailings and nautical astronomy by scale and compass, before he attempts the same by calcul Ition. Thirty years active experience convinces me of its importance, and has, I am proud to say, armed me with a means of easy illustration. Lot study for navigation be on such solid basis that the sailor during life, with frequent lessons, may taste the sweets of self-improvement. Projection has, for the last half century, boon grossly ne glected in our schools and universities; and such neglect is one grand cause of inefficiency in many important mathematical applications. It is not too much to say, with all due respect to examiners, as I say of even wranglers of Cambridge, few of them know much about the construction of figures, and the instrumental resolution of nautical questions. I find it so in intereourse with the world Many who would work a spheric angle with facility and rapidity, would hesitate to undertake the accurate construction of the figure. Wherefore this de ficiency ? Amend this, and the " why and the wherefore" will be the handmaid of him who will delight in a science which conducts our commerce over pathless space, and whose daily occupation will be in the better exercise of the most sublime science which ever attracted human thought. Such men are equal to and capable of a nobler grade in life's walk. It would take but little to exalt them—relieve them from the feeling of oppression which suddenly strikes many a fine fellow from the busy stage of usefulness, and compels him to walk the streets and docks a disappointed and a stricken man ! The illustrious consort of our beloved Sovereign is training a royal son to naval life. The qualifi cation of Prince Albert to superintend the educa tion of the royal offspring are of world-wide recognition. All British eyes are now turned towards him in his endeavour to promote a better tu. and my heart cheered him in reading his able address to an assembly in the papers of this day. Could his Royal taigunees stoop so low as to listen to my humble whisper, what might not be done for the cause which touches the happiness of a loyal sailor's family ! Prince Albert knows the value of sound and solid learning ; he knows that well directed study is the shortest, easiest, and most pleasant path to know ledge—that the secret of all education is to teach a student how to teach himself. Most Noble Prince !—Deign to assist our Queen's loyal subjects ! Your son may one day take a high command, and need the willing arm that now feels palsied. Infuse new vigour in this weakened limb—nerve it for further deeds of duty and devo tion. Our Queen, renowned for virtues so exalted, must look with pity on her late defenders ; they played a manly part in England's wars, without the spur of interest ; they seconded your naval heroes in their work, while griefs were rising in unwilling murmurs. Such may, ere long, burst out in loud remonstrance. IF YOU ALREADY HEAR THEM —WELL !—I have, &c , S. M. SAXBY. June 23rd, 1857. COOLIE IMMIGRATION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NORTHERN TIMES. fiat,—ln a late number of your journal, you made some stringent remarks in reference to the loss of life amongst the Coolies, on their passage from Cal , mtta to the West Indies. It will be satisfactory for you to know that, with the exception of the case of the ship Merchant man, to which you more particularly allude, the health and safety of these emigrants, have, in every instance, almost, been preserved in the most satisfactory manner ; quite equal to the average of passengers proceeding to the United States, or Australia, landed from the respective vessels in these trades. But were the case otherwise, the arrangements for the embarkation and passage of the Coolies, are entirely in the hands of the Go vernment agent in Calcutta, over whom there is no other control whatever. In the instance of the Merchantman, it would appear that the pick of the Coolie labourers go to the Mauritius ; and that those put on board con stituted what were left, and were very many of them unfit for the purpose intended. It would also appear, for what reason I am not able to explain, that the food of the Coolies was changed from • pease, rice, &e., to biscuit, the effect of which was to produce dysentery on board, and many lives were lost in consequence. With your love of fair play, you - All, I am con fident, readily insert this statement in the columns of your paper; for, although Government in reality hold the power alone, and exercise it, in connection with the passage of the Coolie==, yet, if anything goes wrong, the odium is invariab!y saddled on the West India Planter, who, in truth, has nothing whatever to do with the business, until the people arrive at their destination.—T am, Sir, yours respectfully, JUSTICE TO ALL. 24th June, 1857. STRUCK ET THE COMET.—The good people down at Indianapolis, Indiana, were terribly freightened. They believe down there that the comet is going to knock our little planet all to smash, and have been greatly exercised about it for some time. With this belief, and under this excitement, they were thrown into a state of alarm that is described as perfectly awful, by seeing the moon rise from behind the eastern bills as red as blood, and looking like the great head of a fiery dragon. So freightened were they, says the Lafayette Journal, that the alarm bells were rung and the fire-engines brought out; and the excitement and confusion for a few moments were indescribable. The idea of calling out the engines under such cireumstances was worthy of the genius of Dame Partington, who undertook to repel an invasion of the Atlantic with her mop. The appearance of the full orb above the horizon soon restored the people to their senses, and converted their shriess of affright and frenzied appeals to heave!! into a general guffaw. MONETARY AND COMMERCIAL. LIVERPOOL, Wednesday Evening A good demand was experienced for Cotton to-day, and the supply not being over free, prices exhibit an improved tendency. The sales were about 12,000 bales, including 3,000 on speculation and for export. In the Liverpool Share Market there was not much business done to-day, and prices were barely supported. The Public Funds and Securities tc-day opened at yesterday's prices, but a slight decline subse quently took place, and Consols for the Account closed at 938 to 93/ ; Exchequer Bills, at 4 dis to 2 pm. ; and the New Three per Cents. at 928 to 98. In the London Share Market great inactivity prevailed throughout the day, and the following were the closing quotations :—Ambergate, Nottingham, and East Junction, 51, 51 ; Caledonian, 741, 75i ; Edinburgh and Glasgow, 62, 64 ; Eastern Counties, 111, 111 f East Lanca shire, 96, 971; Great Northern, 981, 994 ; Ditto A, 91.1, 921; Great Western, 641 65 ; Lancashire and Yorkshire, 1001, 100 - ; Leeds Northern, 44f, 45 ; London and North Western, 1031, 103 i ; Lon don and South Western, 1011; Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire; 441 ; Midland Stock, 831, 831; North British, 431; South Eastern and Dover, 751; York, Newcastle and Berwick, 914, 924 ; York and North Midland, 701, 714; Bank Stock, 212, 214 ; Holyheads, 36, 37 ; Grand Trunk of Canada, 141, 141 ; Great Western of Canada, 228, 221; Ditto, new, 1,18 ; Mexicans, 22i, 23. The London Produce Markets were rather more active to-day, and an improved demand was ex perienced for Sugar, speculators having come into the market. Coffee was in good request. Other articles about the same as on Friday last. The Tallow Market was firm. The various Corn Markets held tc-day were rather depressed, and prices are on the declining tendency. Trade in the manufacturin g districts continues firm, indeed, the hardening tendency which the Manchester Market exhibited last week, has been still more observable since Monday, and, t o a large extent, the advantage gained by producers last week now admits of quotation. We ought, however, to restrict this remark to yarns, which, on the average, are dearer by kd per lb, both in the home trade and for export. The advance is not very readily paid, nor has much business been done at it, but buyers are now rather eager operators at last week's extreme prices, although they find few spinners disposed to sell except at an advance. Yesterday and to-day it has been currently reported on 'Change that the long looked-for reduction on the Russian tariff is on the eve of taking place. This rumour (for as yet it is nothing more) appears to meet with general credit, and has not been without effect on our market to-day- The reduction is expected to be at least 30 per cent. on the present duties. We hear of a good deal of inquiry, and some actul business, in single and double yarns suitable for Russia, in general at very full prices, but the advance demanded by spinners has checked business greatly. Two-fold yards are more actively inquired for, particularly No. 60's, which is rather dearer. For the finer counts, No. 80's and upwards, there is more de mand than for some time past, but we do not hear of much business as yet in this department. Of the cloth market we can hardly report so favou rably as of yarns ; and, indeed, it shows very little change. Prices incline in favour of the seller, but not so decidedly as to admit of quotation. The demand for the common qualities of T cloths and L cloths continue steady, and occasionally a slight advance can be obtained, but for other classes of goods the market is quiet, and manufacturers find that to raise their quototions is to put themselves out of the market. The Silver Market continues in a very quiet state, pending further advices from Inlia and China, but the quotations are tolerably steady. The current prices of bullion are :—Bar gold, 77s 9d per oz. standard ; doubloons, Spanish, 78s per oz. ; ditto, South American, 76s 6d per oz.; United States' gold coin, 76s 20 per oz. ; bar silver, 5s d e I per oz standard ; and five-franc pieces 4s I.lfd per oz. Moderate purchases are still made on the Continent, but the remittances of goiu 'Torn ttita side in payiucnt are not very important. A fair proportion of the weekly supplies of Californian gold is now taken into the Bank, and yesterday about 70,0001 of the quantity received by the Arabia, on Monday, was added to stock of the precious metals in Threadneedle street. The amount of silver as yet actually engaged for shipment for the East, by the Colombo, on the 4th of July, is about 300,0001. It is at present com puted that the total remittances by that vessel will not exceed 700,0001. or 800,0001. This estimate may perhaps be hereafter modified ; but, as we have before mentioned, the shipments by the Pera on the 20th inst. were altogether exceptional, being greatly swelled by the large arrivals of silver from Mexico. The Paris advices mention that the French Ame rican Steam Company has obtained the concession of the Spanish transatlantic steam lines, with the grant of a subvention derivable from the revenues of Cuba. The shares of the Euphrates Valley Railway Company were in demand yesterday, and closed at 1-10 tog pm. (with 2s. paid), owing to the favour able reception given yesterday by Lord Palmerston to the influential deputation which waited upon him with reference•to this company. A special meeting of the Manchester, Sheffield, and Lincolnshire Railway Company is called for the Bth of July, at Manchester, "to receive a report from the directors in reference to the termi nation of the agreement of 29th of July, 1854, with the London and North Western Railway Company, and to consider and confirm, or otherwise, an agreement with the Great Northern Railway Com pany." The meeting will also be called upon to sanction two bills, one of which provides for the establishment of direct communication between Oldham, Ashton-under-Lino, and Guide-bridge, whilst another empowers the Stockport, Disley, and Whaley-bridge Railway Company to extend their line to Buxton. A special meeting of the General Iron Screw (Jollier Company is called for the 30th inst., to make a number of alterations in the deeds of settlement. Some of theSe alterations relate "to the contin gent and insurance fund, the restriction on the division of profits, the appropriation of the re served fund, the reduction of the nominal amount of the shares, and other matters." A special meeting of the Class A. shareholders of the St. Andrew's and Quebec Railroad Corn oany is called for the 30th inst., to consider and approve a bill for incorporating the New Bruns wick and Canada Railway and Land Company. Notice is given to the holders of Indiana Five per Cent. Bonds, issued for bank capital, and falling due in 1864, 1865, and 1856, that the State is willing to purchase 40,0001 of these bonds. This day, a meeting of shipowners, merchants, &c, of Loudon, was held at the London Tavern, having been convened by M. Ferdinand de Lesseps, to hear from him some explanations relative to the proposed Isthmus of Suez Canal. The meeting was fully attended. The chair was taken by Sir James Duke, who justified his coming on that occasion by reading a letter from Lord J. Russell, which had also been signed by himself, Mr. Cranford, and Baron Rothschild, calling orf the Lord Mayor to convene a public meeting for the purpose of enabling M. de Lesseps to explain hisiviews. The Lord Mayor having been unable to do so, the present meeting had been called, and he (Sir James Duke) had consented to preside. The following is a copy of the circular of invitation addressed to M. de Lesseps to the heads of com merce in the city of London : Gentlemen,—ln inviting your attention to the condition and progress of the Suez Ship Canal Scheme, I advocate not only my interest as the promoter and concessionary of that great undertaking, but the interest of all commercial communities, in the measure of their trading and ludas. trial activity, and consequently in the highest degree those lof London. By a charter of his Highness the Viceroy of THE NORTHERN TIMES. LIVERPOOL, THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 1857. Egypt, I am empowered to carry out the necessary arrange ments for a junction of the Mediterranean with the Red Sea, by a canal navigable for the largest ships, and for the opening by this means of a safe maratime route to India, China, and Australia. The route which will thus be opened to commerce is shorter by 5,000 miles, as re spects England, than that at present followed round the Cape of Good Hope ; its track lies through seas of all others most easy of navigation, and it skirts the coasts of countries rich in natural products, though at present, for all mercantile purposes, beyond the reach of European enterprise. Engineers of the highest repute in England and the chief countries of Europe, have examined and approved the technical features of the scheme. An important accessory work, consisting of a branch canal, is now in actual progress, and the greater part of the c ipital required has been subscribed among the commercial classes of the sever el European nations, whose goveremente have readily sanctioned a project of such mantfest importance to the development of commerce and civilization. My object in shortly coming amongst you will be to ascertain the feelings which exist in the financial and commercial classes of London with respect to this great enterprise, and personally to furnish full information as to its objects and details, well knowing that your coun trymen yield only to the most solid arguments, and after the most mature and circumspect examination. In the principal cities throughout Europe, where this scheme his been brought forward to public notice, it has elicited on the part of the chief municipal, commercial, and scientific bodies, manifestations of the most signal interest and sympathy. I am, therefore, naturally desirous to complete this general expression of approval with the crowning sanction of the greatest commercial and manu facturing nation in the world, who, above all others, is called to participate in the incalculable advantages inevitably resulting from a work, which by concentrating her vast colonial pessessions in the east aed i❑ the south, must increase and consolidate her prosperity. —I have the honour to subscribe myself, gentlemen, your most obedient and humble servant, London, June, 1857. FERDINAND DE LESS EPS. M. de Lesseps entered into his promised state ment, recapitulating the various arguments in favour of the scheme which he has advanced in various quarters with so much earnestness and ability. He was followed by Mr. Lange, the Eng lish agent of the company, and resolutions were passed highly approving of the undertaking. The annual meeting of the African Steam Ship Company was held in London to-day. The Di rectors state in their report that they are unable to declare a dividend, as during the greater portion of the year only four out of their six vessels have been employed, and the company have been exposed for the last six months to competition with a line of steamers running from London to the coast of Africa. Having considerably reduced their working expenses, they hope for better results next year. The accounts show a loss of £7,075. The Chairman, in moving the adoption of the report, expressed regret that the other business occupations of Mr. Schneider bad compelled him to retire from the chairmanship and from the board. He was sorry that the financial state of the business, as resulting from the past year's business, did not justify the payment of a dividend ; he stated, however, that the causes of that position were of longer standing than the past year. The terms of the contract with the Government were not sufficiently remunerative ; snd when the war terminated and the employment of their vessels in the contract service ceased, their profits fell off. It might be a question whether, if some better terms could not be obtained, it would not be advisable to sell the ships and wind-up the company. After a discus sion the report was adopted. At the meeting of the South Australian CGrnpany to-day, E. Divett, Esq., M.P.,. in the chair, a gratifying report was presented. From the accounts it appearei that the net income of the past year was 26,6071. 7s. 6(1., from which the Directors now declare a dividend of 7 per cent. per annum. The report was adopted.

It has been gratuitously circulated throughout the United Kingdom, together with the two lectures upon Canada, delivered by Mr. Rollo Campbell, of Montreal, in January last. Every clergyman in Scotland has been supplied with a copy of both, together with the particulars of the Grand Trunk system of Through Booking, and a Map of Canada, upoa which all the Railways and their connec tion with the United States are shown. These, and other documents, continue to be issued gratuitously to all persons who apply for them, either personally or by letter, at the offices of the Grand Trunk Rail way Company, 21, Old Broad-street, London, E.C. THE CALIFORNIAN Pas.—The everlasting question c f "i 8 this good pen" has been answered by Mr. E. T. Hall, of South John street, who has succeeded in ::roducing a metallic pen, which he designates, not inaptly, as above. There is hardly anything more annoying than a bad pen—every one knows the misery. The pen made by Mr. Hall, is fit for any hand to use (light or heavy), and what is of the greatest value, it does not corrode, but will work with equal facility in any ink. From experience of metallic pens, we can say that this one, which Is polished as gold, and will last nearly as long, is the best one we have ever used.—Northern Times. One box, containing six dozen pens, sent free on receipt.of 23 6d in postare stamps. Agents wanted for the country.—Adv. Emigrants to the UNITED STATES and •CaNADI., by tatine; the Through Tickets of the Grand Trunk Railway Company, are conveyed from their port of landing to their destination in less than ONE QUARTER OF THE limo taken by Steam Boats, and at about the same rates of fares. Thus a passenger can reach Chicago from Quebec, a distance of 1,007 miles, in less than 21 days, whereas by water it is nearly double the distance and requires from 12 to 15 days, with five or six changes of Steam Boats, during all of which they are exposed to the arm and machinations Of designing persons, whose sole means of living is by their plunder. The Steam Boats, especially when crowded, scarcely afford protection from the weather. Passengers with Through Tickets are allowed the same amount of luggage, free, anon board the ship, and itis conveyed from the Ship t o th e Railway Station without any charge whatever. The Agents of the / rand Trunk Company will give Mechanics, Artizans, and Labourers, on their arrival, the best information in respect to employment, the places at which it is to be had, and the rates of wages. Intending Emigrants can have sent to them, free, a Tariff of passengerates ; and all their enquiries with regard to the sailing of both steamers and sailing ships, Scale of Dietary, &c., will b 3 immediately answered on application, either personally or by letter, at the offices of the Grand Trunk Company, ?1, (Old broad-street, London.

If milk is given to young prople, let it be slightly warmed, in fact as warm as Lew milk, and no warmer.
