TESTIMONIALS IN FAVOUR OF
AXBY'S PATENT SPHEREOGRAPII
LOCAL MARINE BOARD, .71, CORNIIILL, LONDON,
20th August, 1857.

._aa,—This Board, at their Meeting to-day, and in the presence of
Mr. Boulter J. Bell their examiner in navigation, and Captain J.
Burnett, secretary, and one of the examiners in seamanship, had
much pleasure in witnessing the quickness and correctness with
which, by your Sphereograpla, you got a great circle course, and
the distances on it,.and ascertained the latitude at sea, the varia-
tion by amplitudes znd azimuths, the time at sea, and found the
true distance between the moon and the sun, or a star, for obtaining
the ls'ngitude. The Board are of opinion that your tables will be
found of great practical service at sea, and recommend them to the
favourable consideration of nautical men.--I am, sir, your most
obedient servant, D. DUNBAR, Chairman.

GENT,LEMEN,— I beg to inform you that the EVERTOR,
(No. 3)
which I purchased from you in December last, has the advantage
of enabling a captain to navigate his vessel simply and correctly.
When any celestial objeet.is visible, the position of the ship can be
ascertained, and either latitude or apparent time discovered. Like-
-wise it enables him to adjust his compasses in a very quick and
,effective manner.—l am, gentlemen, your obedient servant,

high eulogium upon his personal worth, and his scientific
Sir William Armstrong, in returning thanks,
expresSed his belief that .the power which science gave,
whether applied to peace or war, was always on the side
of civilisation, and that the spread of civilisation must
tend, necessarily, to diminish war, and to render it
less barbarous. With respect to the " Armstrong gun,"
he said it was absurd to suppose that there was any
secret abut its general construction, which was already
known to hundreds of persons, and which had been already
approximately desCribed in many publications; but there
were many details which would require to be mastered be-
fore foreign nations could make it, After mentioning
several instances of the power of his gun, which he said
would carry either shot or shell—the latter most destruct-
ively in naval warfare—Sir William said his experiments
had commenced.in 1854, and were carried on for nearly
three years When the results of his invention were meer-
tliined all his previous disbursements were refunded by the
government, and he took • the opportunity of stating that
the Duke of Newcastle, Lord Panmure, and General Peel,
sueeossive ministers of war, had alike afforded him counte-
nance and support, as had also all the permanent authori-
ties at the War-office. Referring to the arrangement
which the government had made with him, he said he had
declined the offer of a pecuniary compensation for his
outlay and invention, and had proposed to them that lie
shoula receive a salary of £2,000 per annum, commencing
from a period of three years back, during . which nearly his
whole time had been given to the subject, and continuing
for seven years to come, he undertaking to give -them the
benefit of all his information and experience, and to relin-
quish in their favour all future inventions relating to the
gun. Appreciating fully, as he did, the gracious recogni-
tion of his services by her Majesty, he only valued the
arrangement he had entered into as a means of enabling him
to ride his hobby with more effect as well for the public
advantage as his own satisfaction. In conclusion, Sir Wil-
liam denied, to the best of his knowledge and belief, that
any p?rson who had been connected with his works had
gone into the service of any foreign government.

:les men-

a, a ame when he might have known, and I
have little doubt did know, that he was substantially
insolvent, has not done justice to his other creditors
whose names appear on the balance sheet. We have it in
evidence that he borrowed £3OO from Mr. Greenough at £2O
per cent interest, of which he paid three months in advance,
thereby receiving only £285, as his capital to commence
business in March or April, 1857, and another sum of £l5O
at a like exorbitant rate, of interest in the month of March,
1858. Now, this is interest which the profits of no business
will pay, and which no man in trade is justified in paying ;
and we have,sin addition to this, the admission of the bank-
rupt, made in his examination of the 18th February last,

the articles of furniture
which had been removed to Bentham should be given
up for the benefit of the estate. This is considered
by me to be essential previously to the granting of any
certificate; and, therefore, this case must be adjourned
until those articles—the sideboard and pier-glass, or a sum
Igreed upon as .the value of them— are delivered over to
officie. asc: The certificate of the second

will then be suspended for six calendar months; but as my
judgment is founded upon the 198th section, and not upon
any branch of the 2591 section of the statute, immediate
protection will be granted. •

IN RE THOMAS HILL.-This bankrupt came again
before the court on application, for his certificate. He was
a broker in Liverpool, carrying on business under the firm
of Balmain and Hill. Mr. Danson supported the bank-
rupt. and Mr. Deighton appeared to oppose on behalf of the
assignees, and also for .the bankrupt's late partner, Mr.
Balmain. Mr. Harmood W. Banner was again examined
with reference to the accounts of the bankrupt's partnership
with Mr. Balmain, which had been placed in his hands,
and showed that there was a considerable deficiency against
the bankrupt during the period he kept the cash. The
bankrupt was then examined, and afterwards the case was
further adjourned to Monday next.

THE PULPIT.—Henry Ward Beecher eloquently inveighs
against tke pulpit, "that sacred mahogany tuo, or red-
angular box," which "looks like a barn-swallow's nest
plastered on a beam ;" and he tells the following anecdote :
Daniel Webster is reported to have said, that no lawyer
would risk his reputation before a jury if he had to speak
from a pulpit, and that he considered the surviving. of
Christianity in spite of pulpits as one of the evidence of its
divinity." We do not vouch for the truth of this anecdote,
ut we endorse -it as a truth in philosophy."—Gateshead

The objects of the company are to carryon the working of COAL,
CANNER, and IRONSTONE, SMELTING and LIME-BURNING,
and other operations in aid of the same, and for which the estates
of the company possess valuable facilities.
The company have purchased a FREEHOLD ESTATE, at Mol,
in Flintshire, 114 ACRES in extent, and lso the leases of the coadl,
cannel, and ironstone, existing under adjacent estates, comprising
an additional area of about 300 A C It E S, held upon favourable
royalties for 21 and 25 years, from 1857.
These properties arc advantageously situated at a distance of 29
miles ' from the large export markets of BIRKENHEAD and
LIVERPOOL, on the Mold Branch Railway, with which the com-
pany's works and collieries will bc connected by a short line nand mile in length, of easy construction, over land already leased
purchased
for the purpose.
Mr. Peace estimates that the estates of the company will yield,
from mines now won and in work, nearly 4,000,000 TONS of COAL,
exclusive of additional seams of coal and ironstone, which are
referred to by Mr. Higson in a report made by him.
From the Reports of the Chairman, and other mining engineers
of eminence, the Directors are warranted in anticipating a profit on
the capital embarked at the rate of 30 per cent per annum.
Applications for the remaining shares authorised for issue, and
either payable in full or on a deposit of 10s. per share, at the option
of the applicant, must be made on or before the 14th of Hay tnst.,.
to the secretary.
..
Forms of application, prospectuses, and reports may be had on
application, either personally or by letter, to the secretary, at the
