Sts,—On public grounds I venture to call your
attestioa to the feet, that many persons are now going
about the country endeavouring to pinta effects to he pro-
duced b 7 the apparatue patented by Mr. Dircks and myself.
and to deceive the public by giving them am exhibition wit►
which they are certain to be disgusted, and with which I
have nothing to do. I beg to imilow one of the numerous
letters I have received from different porta of the country
alluding to the imposture now ao ammecielly practised. —I

THE ILLNESS or LOAD CLYDL The Weems
which has rubbed the country of one of its noblest heroes
umloubtedlyarose from the toil, and hardships of his soldier
life. It was sio mere "atrophy" of the frame. such as
enervating old age brings to the idle as to the bold in arms ))•aed it is just that we should say it, for it seems only to add
smother, though a mournful. claim to our tender reverences
sod high regard for this simple•hearted and devoted soldier,
to know that in his death he paid the debt of injuries self-
labeled on his health by bard service to his country. Lord
Clyde was naturally of a very vigorous constitution, and im-
mense chest development in proportion to his height. During
the Indian mutiny campaign in Code he was thrown
lenity from his horse, dislocated his right humerus into the
,rills. fractured a rib, and suffered afterwards some inflam-
mation, both pleuritic and pneumonic. Ile never felt tho-
roug-hly well since that accident. After his return to Eng-
land Ittihad two err three attacks of coogestion of the loop,
associated with broochitisand enfeebled action of the heart.
One of these &Meeks preceded hie lite (Mil illness. I Mriog
his last sickness he was attended by the medical allows
of the Chatham garrison, Surgeon Major Summers, Royal
Engineers, being, we believe, in immediate medical charge,
assisted a daily consultation with the ptincipal medical
officer mothers. Prof. Lama:lore, Mr. Cutler, aid Dr.
Watson paid some visite during the course of the illness.
Their opinion pointed but too clearly to the fatal result.
The chief 'umpteen indicated fatty degeneration and
dih-
tation of the heart, but without soy apparent valvular dis-
ease ; imperfectly aerated blood, and consequent disturb-
ance of the brain and mental functions, oakum, with or-
thopooea, and restlessness ; these were the sure forerunners
of the end. And, in fact, the disease consisted of general
enlargement as to weight and bulk of the heart, fatty
degeueretion and dilatation of the auricles. It was obvious
that the duration of the disease was upwards of two years.
Lord Clyde died, not from the waiting atrophy of age, but
as directly in the service of Lis country, and from the
weight of the heavy toils sod great blows which he here in
that service, es though he had fallen on the very field of
one of those battles in which be so often led to victory.—

It is no exaggeration to say that since the death

that it is impossible to have a man more capable of

country. Now what does he say T Is he satisfied

If he does, has he any plan by which its defects may

by him upon that occasion.
" I think," said the Sir COLIN CAMPBUL of
that day, " that the Purchase System ought to be

And why I because he said it was injurious to the
service, by damping the ardour of a large propor-
tion of the best officers. Again he said : " I do
" not like the system of purchase; from what I have
" seen of its effect in driving deserving men out of
" the service my feeling is against it." The two
instances by which he illustrates his opinion are
sufficiently striking. After explaining that he had
purchased at very great pecuniary inconvenience,
to avoid being passed over, he added :—" The officer
" next below me was a man whom I would bow to
" as possessing every quality that a man ought to
" possess—possessing abilities as high as any man I
"have ever known. He could not purchase. It
" was in 1825 that I bought my majority, and in
" 1847 I passed through Cawnpore and found him
" just promoted to be • major in that regiment,
" having in the meantime been to Australia.
" Finally he left the service. He remained in the
" service till he got his majority ; he did sell out ;
" he bad some little income to maintain himself ;
" but all hope was gone, and all that interest which
" it is so necessary for a man to take in his profes-
" sion." The otherness is more touching. There
was an officer io the 55th Regiment. This officer
had been promoted for service in the field, and he
had obtained his brevet majority. He led the
assault at Ching Kiang-foo ; and though he became

ARCHITECTURAL IMPROVEMIINTS IN CAMBIUM],
tisivenarrc.—At Cambridge, during this long realism,
several architectural improvementa and alterstrins are in
progress, which will greatly change the external appear-
ance of the University. The moat important of these is
the extension of St. John's College, the site of which has
been enlarged by the appropriation, under a private act of
parliament, of St John's-lane and the whole of the western
side of St. Joho's•street. A new chapel and master's lodge
haws been already commenced, from the designs of Mr.
G. G. Scott. The chapel will bear a close resemblance to
that of Exeter College, Oxford, which was designed
by the same gerjeman- It will, however, be of far
greater dimensions. The present chapel will be pulled
down, and its site thrown into the ;leaf court, while a con-
siderable enlargement of the hall will be effected by hiking
in the coiebination-room, the fine pliers in the protect
master's lodge being designed as the apartment wherein the
fellows shall, for the future, lip their poet-prandial wine.
The entrance to the new lodge will be from Bride-street
I. pulling down a number of old buildings during the pro-
gress of the works, an interesting discovery was made of a
baedenine piscine, which, no doubt, formed part of the
Hospital of St. John, the ancient foundation upon which
the esent college was engrafted, in the reign of King Henry
the Eighth. A want which has been long felt in the Uni-
versity will be supplied by the new lecture-rooms now is
course of erection in the Old Botanic Garden. Mr. A.
Solvin is the architect. At Pembroke College improve-
ments of • minor character are is progress ; they consist
principelly of restoring the stone work of the ancient
windows. The lompcontemplated alterations in Great St.
Mary's Church are now rapidly progressing. The gallery
f r the heeds sad professors. known am " Golgotha," has
been entirely removed, and the chancel will be fitted up
with stalls of au elaborate character, designed by Mr.
Scott. It ia expected that the church will be re-opened for I
Divine awake at Christmas. The new church of All
Sainte is being erected on a site opposite the entrance to
Jesus College. It is to be regretted that, owing to the
inadequacy of the fonds, Mr. Bodley, the architect, has
been compelled to modify his plans very coesiderably, and
the erection of the spire, a conspicuous feature is the
deice, is indefinitely postponed. The old chart& of All
Sainte will, on the completion of the new one. he takes
doers, sal consequently the street opposite St. John's and
Trinity Colleges will be considerably widened aid improved.
It Is rumoured that the authorities of St. John's College
are anxious that the monument of Kirke White should be
removed to their new chapel ; hut the parishioners of All
Sainte are opposed to the project.—Ataencrute.

remainder. All the party were well and in good spirits.
The bishop in his letter speaks of the great kiednees
which had bees shown to the mission party by all
the authimitics. The Governor at the Cape, Sir P. Wode-

miral, Sir B. Walker. "Captain Gsrdner," says the bishop

The bishop had heard the bad news from Chibises. Is
