ICD.Toi EDWARD'S 5cn0i,i,....01r. Frank Terry, 8.A.,
of St. John's College, Cambridge, formerly a pupil
of this school, has been wearied a Wl,ewell
,cholarship, given for proficiency in Interna,i,nal
Law, Ethics, and Political Philosophy. .It is of the
value of £59 ',CI' annum, for four years.—Mr
[tarry Terry, also a pupil of this school, succeeded
in teasing the preqruinary local examination of the
Incorp, Tilted Lew Socieiy, held last month.
A new kind of an. her, patented by Mr. G. Tyzack,
of North Shields, formetly of Stourbridge, has
recently, by special resolution passed at a general
meeting of the Committee of Lloyds' Register of
eritish and Foreign Shipping, been sanctioned as
Pgrt of the equipment of ve:ieels int,Anded lor
cies iticati el in the register berm of the society.
Practical experience of its merits as the weiking
anchor at sea for some years on board several large
steamers, Lesides othrT severe tests conducted
under Lloyds' authority, have decided the committee
to favour this patent with their approval. The
main feature of the anchor is that it possesses oro,
one arm, so arranged that, no matter how it falls
or on whatever kind of bottom, it immediately and
powerfuty holds, in which position it combined the
good propati.s (without the objectionable points)
of toe Admir dty, Rodger, or ordinary anchors, viz.,
the strain from the hoi!ing part is always in a
direct line with the cab:e, and t te vessel can readily
swing round et her anchor, the single arm of which
acts aa a central pivot, and thus has no tendency,
as some anebors have, of breaking out of the
grou:id when su loving. There is no projecting
arm for a v. ssol to foul with her cable, and she
may in shoal water ii. upon th:s anchor %,,ithout
injuring her bottm. A further recommendatien
is that, from its extreme simplicity of construetioe,
being without a wPI,I, it can be soundly math.,
thoroughly well flushed, and put on board ship at
a moderate cost.
