As swan as the nada appeared a prelissinsip namting
was held to decide on the bout mod. of expressing their gra-
titude. A public meeting war held to coliseum's's on the
22. d of August for the double purpose of thashbag the
Governor, and petitioning the Queen to confirm what be Mg
done. The chair of the meeting was filled by one umber
of council, and four others took pert In moving and mond-
los the resolutions. There resolutions were:-
1. That the prompt manner in which the lieutAlorernor, Mr
Henry Young, hoe, on the part of the crown, a'andoneti all dais le
minerals cc ro)alues, sod restored the grants or public lands to their
orarimd and authorised farm, entitles his Excellency to the gratitude
of the colasists; and to this public expression of their madam, that
his fa ore suministratton will be regulated by the same just regard
fur their legal rights mod social prosperity.-4. That the committee
appolt,ted bthe late pubile meeting to prepare the memorial to his
Excellency be requested, on presenting that memorial and the humble
petition molest royalties to bee Ilaisrty, to convey to his Excellency
the sentiments of the =Wedge, ea expressed in tits keeping run-
halos.

It is to be hoped that this decided expression of public opi-
niou iu the colony may deter the Secretary of State for the
Colonies from persisting in the crotchetty support of his pet
royalty reservation, or at least induce the Premier I. over-
rule the wilfulness of his subordinate colleague.
Woile the colony was thus joyfully exclud, Colonel Robe
departed, unnoticed but by a civil farewell address—a
graceful testimony that even in the heat of political oppai
icon the colonists did justice to hie personal worth.

Rini:WIWI( Or Tan NAVT.—Mr. A. Anderson,
M.P. for Southeaspton, intends propothig to parliament,
" That a select ocimanittoe of the home be appointed to M-
imi', into the practicability of effacing a large reduction of
naval expenditure by providing an available steam fleet
through the means of private enterprise," and with that in-
tent lute addressed a letter to Mr. W. C. Morgan, secretary
to the Steam ship Owners' Association, dated the 22nd of
January, explaisimg the mode by which he proxims to ob
thin hie oblect. Mr. Morgan has transmitted Copies of Mr.
Abdomen% letter to the owners of most steam-packets.
Thagrepesal is for owners to obtain consent of the Admiralty,
end ibis M strengthen their 'wets and adapt them
to wartlike posses, giving the government the power of
pare-hose er him at prices to be fixed by arbitration.
Thu ships, Am the alterations are approved by a competent
surveyor, are to be exempt from light dues and comp Isar,
pilotage. The mot of alteration for a ship of 600 tons is
estimated at boa 1601. to 2001. Mr. Anderson anticipates
by the adoption of his proposition that an unrivalled fleet
mould homily at all tines., without hardest on the national
assimmer. In this of war the same crews am to remain
id& wee weal, bet additional officio and men to be taken
hem thi Royal Navy. He states that the Ordnance are
ready to furnis t the armament, and that the Menne Artillery
mold work the gnu. With such an available force, Mr.
Anderson considers further outlay for the constootion of
Hem ships of war unnecessary, and that many now in con
mission could be placed in ordinary, and thus an important
reduction of publio expenditure be effected.

MEDICAL REPORTS ON THE CHOLERA.—The fourth
official circular of the Board of Health has just apt esrtd.
It contains two documents bearing on cholera, by the two
thief medical esperintsuding inspectors to the board, Ur.
Grainger and Dr. Sutherland ; the one being extracts from •
report on the pragr n of the cholera in Hamburg and
Berlin, by Mr. Grainger' the other au account of the mea-
sures taken for the aspiration of the very serious outbreak
of the disease that occurred at Dumfries. Dr. Sutherland
sums up his experiesee, daring a period of very arduous
labours in the Scotch towns that have suffered most from the
epideatie, a the (ameba& terms :—The practical conclusion
must be self-evident, namely, that the only means of dolling
with choleraic • thetilenee is the immediate organisation, is
every 'Gaddy threatened by the disease, of a staff of asiton
to go (rem house to house, for the purpose of discovering and
treating on the 'pot the sl'ghtost diarrhea' symptoa $ It

fries and Glasgow, that neither rich nor poor will, of their
own free choice, apply for medical aid until the time fur its
efficient exercise is either passed, or the chances of recovery
reduced to a very small proportion. The premonitory diar-
rhoea is, in a large number of oases attended with mascaras
rather agreeable than otherwise ; the sufferer is lulled into
a fatal security, and no alarm is oonssquently taken till it is
too late. _ .

ALARMING CAB ACCIDWIT.—On Friday arming,
the hues of a cab, which had been waiting at the entrance to
Somerset-boom, having taken fright, dashed along the pave-
nwnt at a furious rate towards Charing Crow. The driver
was on the box, but the reins baring been broken, he was
unable to newt the progress et the animal. The vehicle
came violently in contact with the iron fencing of the Globe
newspaper-offiee front, destroying a portion of the Wass, and
damaging the grating which protects the top of the machine.
room. The cab then knocked down Mr. Serle, the dramatiot,
and seriously injured him. A youth, who was standing
near the spot, was also knocked down, and the cob passed
over his person when taken up, he was found to be bleed-
ing, and insensible, and was conveyed to the Clueing Cross
Hospital. The cab, after flying past the Sim newspaper
office, ran against the shop front of Mr. Stammers, the
jeweller and silversmith, destroying the sashes and &mud
mattering the valuable contents of the window in all diem
dons. Some person from Mr. Stammers' shop, fearful, we
suppose, for the plate, would not allow the wounded people
even to lean against the shop front; they were, however,
most kindly received by the proprietor of the Cigar Dieu,
and every attention paid to them. A lady was thrown down,
and her arm broken in two places. A little further on the
cab was turned over by coming in contact with a lamppost.
The severity of the concussion drove one of the shads into
the animal's breast, inflicting most fric4htful gathes mvl lacer-
ations upon its shouller, and the horse, which was a fine,
spiked animal, being thus rendered useless, was conveyed
to a knacker`e, and speedily placed out of its miseries. What
became of the cabman none of the accounts which have
reached us state.

MEDICAL Orrlcsaa Its LAMBETII.—Be'ore Mr. W. Carter,
at the Dolphin, Union-street, Lambeth-walk, touching the
death of T. Waller, aged 22, who, it wee alleged, had died
from medical neglect whilst labouring under en attack of
cholera.—Caroline Meriden deposed that the deceived was
her brother. About three weeks since he left his wife and
child with a relative, for the purpose of going to Au,tralia.
He sold his property and started from the London Docks in
the ship Wellington, for Liverpool, and when he reached
that port deceased and others were so ill from the bad state
of the mewl that the commander ordered ashore those who
were sick. The deceased, on Sunday, the 28th u 1.., reached
witaem's house in a most weak condition. On Monday lest
the deceased awoke witness, and begged of her to

sees seat for Mr. Smyth, of Lambeth-walk, who opened the
window and said he would come, but the messenger waited
for 20 minutes, and no one came out. The person thin ran
to lb. Thompson, another surgeon in the same thoroughfare,
whose son came as soon as possible. He rubbed the de-
ceased and prescribed for him, 'Whig what be bad for

severely. At an early hour one of the lodgers spin went to
Mr. Tnompson's residence, but he bad gone to a patient at
Blackheath. About right o'c:ock on the Tuesday morning
Mr. Thompson, sea., visited the deceased, and after some
harsh remarks told witness that, as she had no order, he
could not send any mora medicine, nor could he attend with-
out being paid for it. Deceased was then in great agony. His
body was quite blue, his limbs were contracted, and Mr.
Thompson never come near the deceased again, and in
the evening deceived expired. Mr. Thompson refused to
give a et:milli:ate without being paid 7s, Bd. fur his trouble.—
The summoning officer was directed to procure the attend-
ance of Mr. Thompson, but he sent ward that he 'lurid not
come to the inquest without being susamoned,and added
that the inquiry was quite unneoessary.—Mr. F. Wagstaff.

last he bad lust expired as witness arrived. His counte-
nance was livid, his features and limbs were contracted, as
if he had died in gnat pain. Witness was of opinion that it
wee a decided ems of cholera, no doubt malting from eating
saw cockles. Deceased's life might have been saved, if he
had had proper and frequent medical relict. Re aught not
to have been left so sway hours without some assistant*.
The Ooroner—Are there not some special arrangements
made by the parish ailleen,for immedista attentions gaolers

a complete staff of medical_patienten to attend such cases
without an order ? Mr. Waptaff—No Sir, there are not.
L have communicated with the guardians on the suhjact,
and enclosed testimonials signed by the clergy and 800 of the
inhabitants, but they have never made any provision of the
kind. Several of the jury wished to know from the coroner '
whether they could not censure the behaviour of Mr. Thom-
pson, which they considered very culpable for leaving the de-
ceased so many hours—The coroner observed that it would be
as well not to do so is his absence., but he would forward a
copy of the depositions to the guardian% sad that would, no
doubt, have the desired effeet.—The j agread to the ;allow-
ingspecie verdict :—..That the des died from the effeets
of cholera, and we (the jury) request that the coroner cos.
municate the nature of the ease to the guardians of Lambeth
with a view of their making more extensive serail/swab
for the appointment of medical damn, so as to afford prompt
and immediate medical attention to the poor."
