THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 20, 1864.

vented and brought into complete working order a most
useful species of packsaddle, adapted to the capacity of horses
and mules of various sizes and burdens. By a simple con-
trivance of turning an inverted screw in the upper part of
the framework, the saddle is brought to fit the back of any
ordinary horse or mule, and is enlarged or rendered suitable
to smaller animals as required. The invention was yesterday
exhibited at Woolwich, and was fully tested in presence of
a number of officers appointed to investigate its capabilities
preparatory to its being despatched to Aldershot,by order of
the Field-Marshal Commanding in Chief of the Forces,
who has directed the Lieut. Gen. commanding the division
on that station to afford the invention a proper trial, and
to report the result. Lieut. M`Mahon states that, from his
experience during the Crimean and Chinese campaigns, he
is aware that many hundreds of animals were lost to the
service from the pack-saddles torturing the animals' backs,
and that ill-fitting saddles rendered the transport of stores
on a campaign in an enemy's country most difficult and un-
safe. He also states tfiat, from the many specimens he has
seen of packsaddles used by foreign Governments, there is
nothing in use so serviceable as that now invented, It can
be unscrewed and packed in less than half the space re-
quired for transporting the one now in use, and can be ex-
panded or contracted at will.

The following appointments have been made at the Ad-
miralty :—Lieut. Herbert F. Crohan to the Excellent ; R.
Mungle, surgeon, additional to the Duncan; Nicholas L.
Gedge, clerk to the Excellent, for the Royal Sovereign;
Archibald G. Douglas, master's assistant, to the Dasher ;
and Alfred B. Scott, master's assistant, to the Victory,

METROPOLITAN WATERS IN DECEMBER 1863.

The organic impurity of the London waters, ac-
cording to the analyses of Dr. Robert Thomson,
F.R.S., is still high, although somewhat less than it
was in the preceding month. The greatest amoant
was found in the Southwark water, which was
somewhat turbid, and yielded a deposit or standing

—a proof of its imperfect filtration. The Kent water
contained no surface impurity, and no organic matter
in an unoxidiied state. The Dulwich well was most
impure, and mixed with so much sewage products
as to be most unwholesome.

The Prince and Princess of Wales.

His Royal H,ghness the Prince.of Wales, at-
tended by the equerry in waiting, went out shoot-
ing on Monday is the Great Park.
Yesterday his royal highness, attended by his
suite, went out skating on a piece of water in the
Park called Balaklava," which, since the frost has
become covered with thick ice. A number of sledge
chairs and an ice-escape were taken from the stores
at Windsor Castle, and conveyed to the ice for the
use of the prince and suite.

The Duchess of Somerset arrived at the Admi-
ralty last night from Ne.helby. near Carlisle, the seat of
Sir Frederick and Lady Hermione Graham.
_ _

The Duke and Duchess of Welliugton left Apsley
House on Monday for Strathfieldsaye.

The Earl and Countess Jermyn have been stay-
ing at Gopsall Hall, on a visit to the Earl and Countess
Howe since leaving Ickwurth Park, the Marquis of Bris-
tol's seat, near Bury St. Edmunds.
The Earl and Countess of Wilton have left Lon-
den for Moor Park, Rickmansworth.
The Countess of Hdddington and Lady Frances
Baillie Hamilton have arrived at the Alexandra Hotel, St.
George's-place, Hyde-park-corner, from Tyninghame,
Prestonkirk, Scotland.
Viscount and Viscountess Palmerston are ex-
pected to arrive in town shortly from Broadlands, Hants,
far the season.

The Baron and Baroness Lionel de Rothschild
will retain Kingston House until the end of March, when
it is expected the family mansion in Piccadilly will be in
sufficient condition to receive the family and establishment.

yY
Tne marriage of Mr. Alexander H. Baring, M.P.,
eldest son of the Hon. Francis Baring, with the Hon.
Leonora Caroline Digby, second daughter of Lord and
Lady Digby, took place yesterday aZternoon at St. James's
Church, Piccadilly.
London, England, 1864-01-06

Mexican Confederation ; and it becomes therefore•
more easy to acknowled2e the probe jjty of the FA--
woof) of the French into the Westeto ,Szatv

producing a general coactirrence in the uew G&,vern-
ment. Moreover, the combination of an effective
nntive force with the French army Bore serves to
relieve the latter in great degree ot the character of
an invading force. If we turn to the north, we find
the Frerch authority now carried, in the heart of
the country, as far north as the latitude of 'lair pico.
We may also fairly presume that during the past
month of December the States of San Luis Potosi
and Zacatecas have come into the new system, and
have acknowledged the Government now established
at Mexico ; for the French and Mexican combined
force was within a short distance ot San Luita
Potosi, the capital, when the last intelligence left.
A glance at the map will show that within the
rayon described by these towns and States is com-
prised the bulk of what is really -and vitally the
Federal State of Mexico. There are still, indeed,
beyond this rayon certain outlying provinces or
States; and their area, too, is not inconsiderable.
But they are thinly peopled. They have little con-
cern in making up either the population or the
public opinion of Mexico; they have always lain
but loosely around the other Spates ; and they have
scarcely a more vital or direct co❑cern witn the
system of government that may prevail to the
southward than California and Texas used to have.
On the whole, therefore, it can hardly be doubTed
that the establishment of the French authority
within the line indicated by the cities of Tampico,
San Luis Potosi, Zacatecas, and Guadalaxara, aid
from thence to the Pacific coast, would be practi-
cally equivalent to the general recognition of the
new regime. It will ❑ot, indeed, follow that the
guerilla bands will be thereby suppressed immedi-
ately ; but there i, good reaso❑ to anticipate that
they will lose much of their political character, and
guerillas reduced to a banditti are a social grievance
rather than the maintenance of a civil war. In the
meantime, to the south of the line of Mexico,
Puebla, and Vera Cruz, the French authority ap-
pears to have been submitted to without much show
of opposition ; and the story brought by the Etna
of the recapture of Puebla by the Republicans hardly
requires even the confutation which the later dates
of the Shannon afford. It has been our lot on
several occasions to differ with the policy or the
French intervention in the character which it as-
sumed after the Convention of Soledad, but we
cannot trace without a feeling of eatisfaction the
success which has attended the arms of a neigh-
, bour and an ally, after so much treasure and h ood
had been expanded in the work which the French
Government now seem in a fair way of bringiug to
a close.

THE "GRAND PRIX CUVIER," founded in honour
of the il:ustrious naturalist, and which is given
triennially by the French Institute, has been recently
awarded to Sir Roderick Murchison, Directcr-General of
the Geological Survey, author of " The Silurian System
of flocks," Bre., &c. This is the first occasion on which
that honour has been conferred on a geologist, it having
previously been granted for advance made in the other
branches of science in which, as well as iu geology,
Cuvier was preeminent.

HEALTH OF THE METROPOLIS,

From the Registrar's-General's Weekly Return.)

In the week that ended on Saturday 1,642 deaths
were registered in London. The average number
in corresponding weeks of ten years is, with a cor-
rection for increase of population, 1,558. The deaths
of last week were therefore more by 84 than they
would have been if the average rate of mortality
had prevailed.
The births registered in the week were 2,308, so
they were numerous enough to supply the vacancies
caused by death, and to contribute, moreover, 666
lives to the increase of population. 386 persons died
of zymotic diseases, including 15 by small-pox, 33
by measles, 93 by scarlatina, 13 by diphtheria, 76
by typhus, 51 by whooping cough. Of 313 deaths
assigned to diseases of the respiratory organs 177
were caused by bronchitis, 93 by pneumonia, 22 by
asthma ; phthisis was fatal in 165 cases. •
Six cases of infanticide were recorded in the
week. Two deaths occurred from intemperance.
Sixty-four persons died at the age of 80 years and
upwards; a pensioner is registered as having died
in Newton street, Shoreditch, on the 29th of Decem-
ber at the age of 100 years.
Last week the births of 1,176 boy; and 1,132
girls, in all 2,308 children, were registered in Lon-
don. In the 10 corresponding weeks of the years
1853-62 the average number (corrected) was 1.828.
