GROSS IGNORANCE OF NAVAL NATTERS.

A correspondent of the Times, signing himself
"J. H. R.," in a letter headed "The Adventures of the
Wellington in search of her equipment," snakes it a
matter of complaint that the screw three-decker Duke
of Wellington has been " built at Pembroke, but is now
in Portsmouth," and that her engines have to be fetched
from Scotland. This wiseacre calls such arrangements
as these " shameful jobs" on the part of the Government.
By the same rule, we presume, it is "shameful" to have
to go all over the world to collect the materials for the
hull and rigging of the ship, and to the collieries for
fuel to get up the steam. "J. H. R." asks the reason
" why was not the building of the ship and construction
of her machinery entrusted to one hand?" Can there
be any reply to such a stupid, senseless question ; and
is it not surprising that any intelligent journal should
print such stuff ? The writer concludes a display of
unparalleled ignorance with the following sentence :--
"There are n) finer vessels afloat in build or ma-

chiucry than those turned out by Clyde builders.
There are no el.: 25, trips rnll!.ng about on the four seas iu
thorooL:bly bad us thob..::""ned out of our dockyards ;

-and to make even a list of such incapables as the Hydra,
the Vulcan, and the Greenock, would crowd your co-
lurnus." It is a charity perhaps, to inf,,rm such a block-
hero, that only one of the three vessels named was built
iu a Royal dcekyard, and that is the" inct,pable" Hydra,
a ship that has seen 14 :,• car:.' good service. The other
two were built at merchant establiAmentq, and the very
" incapable" Greenock, was turned out by Clyde
builders."— Morning Herald.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

BOW-STREET.—Robert Garden, army saddler and
accoutrement maker, Edward Kemp, a young gentleman
who stated that he was " living with his friends," and
was said to be the son of a general in the army, and John
Williams, a naval officer, were placed at the bar before
Mr. Henry, charged with creating a disturbance and as-
saulting the police at Jullien's Promenade Concert, at
Drury-lane Theatre, on Monday night.
Inspector Durkin, of the A division, described the
character of these annual disturbances at Drury-lane. A
number of young gentlemen made it a rule to go in a
party, apparently for no other purpose than to get up a
row. They usually commenced by raising a cry of
" A ring! a ring!" upon which they formed themselves
into a circle, enclosing a large body of respectable
and peaceably disposed persons; a piece of money or
paper was thrown down, and then the " ring " made a
rush towards the centre, amidst the indignant protesta-
tions of the men and the terrified shrieks of the women.
The people who were encircled naturally pressed out-
ward, and they were met by an equal crush in the oppo.
site direction, while the police, who did their best to
capture the ringleaders, were knocked about on all sides.
Witness had been on duty at the theatre for several
years past, and had always witnessed disturbances of a
similar kind, commenced in the same way. The signal
for beginning operations was usually made at the close
of the first part of the entertainment ; and they were
generally kept up at intervals during the remainder of
the night. Witness saw the defendants taking part in
the clLiturbanco on Monday night, and his attention was
particularly directed to Kemp, because ho had seized one
of the constables by the neck-collar, and was nearly,
throttling him ; and when witness begged him to re.
lease the constable, or he might choke him, the defendant
said he would not.

Constable Macdonald, A 141, proved the assault upon
him by Kemp ; and evidence was given by Sergeant
Blackwell and another officer, to show that Garden and
Williams, although less violent, both resisted the potice
in the execution of their duty.
Tho defendant Garden assured the Court that he was
reluctantly dragged into the disturbance, and neither
Pushed nor asaulted a constable intentionally. A simi-
lar defence was made for Williams by Mr. Gill, his soli-

The novel and striking advantages of this Coinpany, when cum-

readily perceived by the following example and table.
Suppose a person aged 20 commence by depositing 101. with tais

will have paid to the Company 3004 for which he will hold a policy
for 695/.125. 4d., payable to his representatives in case of death.
Should he, however, survive 50, aid become unable to pay,* or nct
be desirous of continuing his payments, he can either retain hi;
policy, and still remain assured far 6951. 12s. 4d., or he may canoe:

CORN EXCHANGE.

To-day's market was very scantily supplied with Eng-
lish wheat, coastwise and by land carriage. For all
kinds the demand ruled steady, and Monday's prices
were well supported. A few parcels changed hands for
forward delivery.
The imports of foreign wheat have been only 1,060
quarters. Low and middling parcels moved off readily,
at extreme rates. Fine qualities were quite as dear.
Floating cargoes of wheat were steady; but Indian
corn was much neglected.
Barley, the supply of which was small, moved off
steadily. In prices we have no change to notice.
We had a moderate inquiry for malt, at fully the late
advances.
The oat trade was in a very inactive state.
Beans, peas, and flour as last advised.

We had today a full attendance at market. Wheats
remained firm, at late prices; the supply was very small
which tended to keep the trade in its firm position. Of
barley, we had the largest show of any market-day thl

price must be called Is. per quarter lower. Beans and

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SIR,—In pursuance of my announcement of the 13th
of last month on and after to-day, throughout the racing
season, these Sporting Notes will form in every respect
the very epitome of a racing paper.
By advises that have come to hand this morning from
Lincoln I am enabled to give the probable fields of the
two days' sport.
The Trial Stakes—The Maid of Lincoln, lanthe, The
High Sheriff, Dividend, Poetess, Brawn, Lady Agnes,
Miss Fanny, and perhaps Hun.erford.
The Steeplechase—Ace ofF Trumps, Little Queen,
Johnny Barrie, Carrig, A. Y., Maria Monk, and the
Cripple.
The Hurdle Race—Melford, the General Ormsby,
View-halloo, Psyche, Secret, and Little Queen (doubtful).
The 10 sm. Handicap—Hungerford, lanthe, Ab-
dallah or Lady Agnes, colt by Red Deer, and View-
halloo. Diana and Emma doubtful.

_ .
The Two years old Stakes—Filly by Orlando, filly by
Epirus, Ace of Trumps, Youthful Days, and Sister to
Lizzy. One or two others expected, but had not arrived
up to yesterday afternoon.
Little or no speculation had taken place at the ancient
city up to yesterday, but my accounts lead me to infer
that the High Sheriff, Maid of Lincoln, and lanthe will
be first.; second, and third for the Trial Stakes ; that
Melford and View-halloo will be first and second for the
Hurdle Race ; that Maria Monk will be about the mark
for the Steepl Chase, Carrig and the Cripple being her
probable attendants; that View-halloo will the animal
for the 10 Soya. Ilandicap; and that Youthful Days,
Orlando. or Lanercost fillies, the most likely youngsters
for the Two Years-old Stakes.

_
Betting is uncommonly bribk this morning in town on
the above events,. notwitbstasding the large detachment
of the sporting fraternity that have departed by special
train for the vicinity of Tom of Lincoln. The follow-
ing are the ruling quotations:—
Trial Stakes-6 to 4 agat High Sheriff, 2to 1 agst
Lady Agues, 4 to 1 agst lanthe, 5 to 1 net Maid of
Lincoln.

Steeple. Chase-3 to 1 agst Maria Monk, 7 to 2 agst
Carrig, 5 to 1 agst Ace of Trumps.
Hurdle Race-2 to 1 each agst Melford and View-
halloo.

Ten Sovs. Handicap-2 to 1 each agst Lady Agnes and
View-halloo, 8 to 1 agst any other.
Two-year old Stakes-5 to 2 agst Epirus filly sto 2
agst Broughton, 3 to 1 agst Sister to Lizay, 5 to 1 agst
Youthful Days, 7 to 1 agst any other.

OPENING

PARLIAMENT.

THE QUEEN'S PROGRESS.

The opening of Parliament by the Queen in person has
become almost an annual event, and her progress to the
Palace of Westminster a spectacle so well known that it
needs but little description. Her Majesty had her usual
good fortune in the weather, the morning was truly royal,
the brightest and clearest, and at au ,arty hour the route
from Buckingham Palace to Westminster was lined by
crowds of all classer,, more than usually numerous.
Every window and house-top had its usual complemcht
of sight-seers; a number of stands were erected at every
available site down Parliament-street, while in the
Park the itinerant possessors of barrows, chairs, and
forms, gleaned a plentiful harvest from that portion of
her Majesty's subjects, whose stature would have been
too short to permit them otherwise to catch a view of
her Royal countenance. Shortly before two her
Majesty left the Palace in the state carriage,
preceded by six carriages containing the officers of the
Household and the Royal Suite. Her Majesty was
loudly cheered on all parts of her route, and acknow-
ledged the effusions of her loyal subjects with her
usual graciousness. The Royal cortege drew tit,
at the Victoria Tower, which entry was used
for the first time on this occasion, and was
,re-
ceived by the band of the Grenadier Guards. A flourish?
of trumpets announced the entry of her Majesty to thi-
House. After the conclusion -4 the Royal Speech, her
I'Majeitty Leff thellanse of‘Lorc4; and the cortege re-
turned to Buckingham Palace in the same order as it
had arrived.

Remedy for Severe Coughs, Recent Colds, Affections of the
Chest and Lungs.—This far-famed medicine is the most as-
tonishing remedy ever known for the cure of recent colds, old

APPOINTMENT.

Mr. H. W. Row'stone, paymaster and purser, of the
Wolverine, 12, coast of Africa, to the Gladiator,
6, palcile-wheel steam-vessel, 430 horse power, Cape
of Good Hope.
The officers and ship's company of her Majesty's ship
London were inspected yesterday by Captain the Hoe.
IL;ntagu St,pford.
The Adder, paddle-wheel steam-vessel, 100-horse
power, James Watt master, arrived yesterday from
P.,rtsmoutn, with engine-ers and seamen-gunners for the
Horatio, 24, screw steam guard-ship, Captain the Hon.
S. T. Carnegie. After putting them on board the Hora-
tio's hulk, she proceeded to Chatham.
The d:ffieulty of procuring first-rate seamen for oar

ships has for some time past been a matter of regret,
and in none of our outports has it been more felt than at
this. Oa the paying off the Ganges last week a large
portion of the crew (nearly 300) volunteered for her
Mttjesty's ship London, whose complem"nt as an ad-
vanced ship is only 350 (more than one-half of which
are marines), and from the circumstance of there being
_ .

❑o vacancies in her !Jr able :eatnen, not one of them

could be entered. With the exception of a few who have
joined the Horatio. these men have been allowed to dis-

tribute themselves to find employment in other quarters.
instead of being retained, as common prudence would
dictate in the prekeat state of affairs, in our own service.

The following gentlemen have been selected by the
Board of Admiralty for the purpose of testing the merits

on the 27th ult. (being cenveyed to this port by a steamer
placed at their disposal) toe the purpose of consulting on
the tests to be applied to the various anchors now in use.
After a deliberation of more than two hours, various re-
soluelons were agreed to, which have been submitted to
the Lords of the Admiralty for approval. The visit,
although official, was strictly private; hence the parti-
cular tests to be adopted leive not been made public.
The trial of the anchors, which is not, it is said, to take
place until April, is expected to continue several days.
