VAUXHALL-GARDENS.

As an ancient and well recognised wind-up to the
sports of the Derby Day, the Royal Property com-
menced its season by a Bal Masque on the usual scale
of splendour. In spite of the ungcnial state of the
weather, the company was unusually numerous, and the
proportion of masques as great as we ever remember
having seen it. Tee crowd was of the usual description;
crusaders, Choctaw Indians, Highland chiefs, Spanish
cavaliers, flower girls, court dames, and debardours, all
mingled together on the most amicable footing, and
everything passed off with the greatest order and hila-
rity. Considerable additions and improvements have
been made in the gardens since last year—the circus has
been abolished, and the ring, floored over, forms a large
and elegant ball-room, which for the future will enable
the dancers to set the weather at defiance; two or three
additional supper-rooms have been added, and the lights
and the music—the two great ingredients in the attrac-
tions of such a place of amusement—are even on a more
liberal scale than ever. We believe that, as consider-
ahle disappointment was anticipated from the wet
weatherourioed a second of yesterday,

rallied sufficiently to attend the Committees last week,
though he had discontinued doing so for the last few days.
The Honourable Gentleman, who was in his forty-eighth
year, died at Brighton on Tuesday evening, and since 1836
was one of the leading and most affluent members of the bar.
The last brief he held, in the case above, was endorsed with
1829, and beloned to the Oxford
300 guineas. It is said to be the intention of the Parliamen-

ing ceremony took place on Tuesday blying the founda-
tion-stone of what is a complete novellaa clock tower in
the city of London. The site is in the new street from
London-bridge to St. Paul's, and the historical recollections
of the place and its vicinity are unusually interesting.
The site is that on which the old church of St. Martin's,
St. Martin's-lane, formerly stood. The church was de-
stroyed during the Great Fire of London, but the tower
was saved, and stood until it was recently pulled down
in consequence of the City improvements. From the
period at which the church was destroyed a chapel was
erected for the use of French Protestants, but Divine ser-

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.
MANSION-HOUSE.
Mr. J. G. Spurgin was summoned before the Lord
Mayor to answer the complaint of Mr. W. S. Everett,
newspaper agent, of Finch-lane, under the following
circumstances :
The complainant said—The defendant came to my
plate of business on the 10th of May with a Mr. Lewis,
'bona I knew, and asked me to lend him 11/. I ob-
jected, having been cautioned by my father not to lend
my money. He then went on to say that ho would
leave as a deposit a policy of insurance which ho had
for 5001., upon which ho had paid premiums for, I think,
twelve years, and he said he was a director of the Bri-
tannic Assurance Company in Princes-street, and that
he 'would go and try whether could £OO one of his
brother directors to get the amount or a cheque cashed.
Ile went away, and after an
.absence of seven or eight'
minutes he returned, and. said ho could not succeed in

la answer to other questions, in cross-examination, the

Mr. Arnold, two or three days ago, received a letter
informing him that a lady, the wife of a gentleman be-
longing to the Army and Navy Club, and late an officer
of the Dragoon Guards, was with her two children, at
Brampton, in so destitute a condition that she was
unable, from want of the necessary apparel, all of
which
had been parted' with to procure food,
to leave her wretched abode. The magistrate imme:
raediately directed Downing, one of the summoning
officers of the court, to make inquiries into the matter,
and his report being of the most favourable descr'P i '-
tien, some relief was afforded her from the poor-box.
Tho lady was thus enabled to wait upon the magistrate,
when she entered into the following narrative:—She had
been in early life married to a merchant, to whom she
had borne two children, but who unhappily became
fatherless about four years ago. Shortly afterwards she
became acquainted with her present husband, and was
united to him at Brompton Church, in August, 1850.
lie was at that time holding his commission in the army,
but shortly afterwards disposed of it, and she travelled
with him for some months on the Continent. In the
early part of last year ho returned with her to England,
and directed her to proceed to Brompton, where he had
engaged a furnished house for her reception, while ho
repaired to the Isle of Man, on a visit to his friends,
promising to join her in six weeks. They parted at
Liverpool, and from that time she had never seen her
husband. She had subsisted as long as she could by
d:sposing of her plate and jewels, and was ultimate/y
obliged to leave the house taken for her, in consequencei
of being no longer able to pay toot
the rent. She t
a mean lodging in the same neighbourhood, and there
eked out a pitiful existeaca while she or hcrchildren had
any article of clothing worth disposal; and all being at
length parted with, she became a houseless and penniless
wanderer, and was rescued from the streets by the hu-
manity of a poor carman and his wife, who afforded her
part of their scanty fare, and where she was permitted to
lie down and take what repose she might after he went
out to his labour in the morning, the poor people having
but one bed. In her extremity she had made known her
caso to the Rev. Mr. Irons, rector of Brompton, who re-
commended her to acquaint a magistrate of her distressed
condition.
The lady, who is of very prepossessing appearance and
only 29 years of age, and who was accompanied by two
fine boys, stated in reply to Mr. Arnold's inquiries, that
her husband had written to her several times in terms of
affection, and she was totally unable to account for his
desertion of her. Ha was at present staying with his
mother, who was adverse to their union, and who had
expressed his displeasure at the family solicitor having
afforded her seine assistanc< from the proceeds of thser
estsne.
Mr. ARNOLD inquired whether her husband had been
made fully atqaainted with her destitute condition?—
The lady replied that he had, but no notice had been
taken of the matter. She had also written to the family
solicitor, but he said he could net interfere.
Mr. ARNOLD inquired the age of her hushana 2—The
lady replied that he was her junior by about fire years.
Sao had never by word or deed given the slightest ex-
cuse for his neglect.
Mr. ARNOLD observed, that it was a most distressing
case, and as ho had esa-ry reason to believe her state-
ment to he a true one he hoped something might be able
I
to ho done for her. n her present distressed condition
he would recommend her to again apply to the family
solicitor, and stato to him that she had been compelled to
make her condition known, and that unless some step
immediately
were taken, her only course would be to
render herself chargeable to the parish, when a warrant
wouldissue against her husband for neglect. The means

IDEATH OF A MEMBER OF THE SWELL MOB. -On
Monday morning, at an early hour, a young man died in the
accident ward of St. Thomas's Hospital, under circumstances
of a very remarkable nature. The deceased was well known
as a member of the swell mob, frequenting the neighbourhood
of the Elephant and Castle. It appears that the deceased got
into conversation on Saturday evening with two gentlemen in
the Walworth-road, and after taking some refreshment with
them, he followed and attempted to rob one of them, Who
happened to be a good boxer, and gave the deceased a sound
thrashing, and then let him depart. The deceased was shortly
after taken ill. and the foot passengers carried him into the
shop of Mr. Waring, the chemist, of Walworth-road, where he
appeared to be suffering from the effects of a narcotic. He
was accordingly placed in a cab and taken by a police-con-
stable of the P division to the hospital, where he remained in
a state of unconsciousness until 'lie o'clock yesterday morn-
ing, when he died. A female identified the deceased as James
Smith, and the police have also recognised him as being the
man they were in search of for robbery.
MONEY MARKET.—The quotation of gold at Paris
is about 5, per mille prem. (according to the new tariff ), which,
at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for
standard gold, gives an exchange cf 25.291 ; and the ex-
change at Paris on London at short being 25.471, it follows
that gold is about 0.71 per cent. dearer in London than
in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of. gold
is 431 per mark, which, at the. English Mint price of
31. 17s. lop. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange
t
of 13.8 ; and the exchange at Hamburgh on London
short being 13.9, it follows that gold is about 0.46 per
dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The cours, of ex-

INSTITUTION OF CIVIL ENGINEERS.
The session of the Institution of Civil Eogineers was
appropriately terminated on Tuesday evening by a con-
vernzloue, which was attended by the members, and a
numerous and brilliant assemblage of distinguished
visitors, who were received by Mr. J. M. Bendel (the
President), attended by Mr. Charles Manby (the secre-
tary), upon whom devolved the duty of collecting and
arranging the works of art, models of machinery, and
specimens of manufacture with which the rooms were
profusely and elegantly decorated.
It would exceed our limits to notice more than a few
of the principal points of attraction.
In the reception saloons, which were hung with Au-
busson tapestry, by Jackson and Graham, and decorated
with a profusion of flowers, were Sir Edwin Landsepr's
"Random Shot," and Ward's picture of "James 11.
reading the Despatch," both from the collection of Mr.
Jacob Bell; Turner's " Blue Lights," with an extraordi-
nary facsimile in coloured lithography.
Around these were placed pictures by Stanfield,
Flaghe, Egg, Herring, Anadell, Phillip, Wehnert, Lance,
Wood, Crowley, Bothwell, Nienaann, Kennedy, Winter-
halter,Emerson Tennent had contributed some beautiful
Wilson, and Carmichael.

Mi N NEWS.

- -
The accounts from New York this week contain
nothing of material importance. The recent rise in
the rate of exchange had not been fully maintained,
and the shipment of specie, which had seemed
about to recommence, had consequently again been
checked. Money was more abundant than ever,
and 4 per cent. was now the highest rate to be eh"
tained for loans at call. The stock market, never-
thelese, was on the average a shade lower, being
partly influenced by the flood of railway bonds
which still continued to be poured upon it. The
better descriptions of these bonds were readily
taken, but the necessity for caution, with regard to
the majority, was daily becoming more evident. All
sorts of petty towns and counties were pledging
their faith for the payment of the interest, and
already the constitutionality of some of their Pro'
ceedings had become a matter of dispute and litigat•
tion. The increasing demand for channels of invest-
ment was likely, however, to overcome all other con-
siderations, and the mere sound of a "guarantee," no
matter how worthless, serves in the United States,
as on this side, to entrap many who would hesitate
to enter into the most legitimate enterprises that had
nothing but their intrinsic goodness to recom-
mend them. During the week there had been
two failures of mercantile firms, the parties
being Dunscomb, Cook, and Co., of New York, and
Alatmereri
Johnson and Travers, of Baltimore, both in the South
fcraonmand
California, West lndiatrade.but

expected shortly, and if it should bring a further
large supply of gold the stimulus to the money market
would be very great. Meanwhile, the traffic t°
San Francisco was undiminished and the Northern-
Light had lately sailed for Nicaragua with 900 Pas'
sengers. From Mexico the d • 18th

the new Minister from Mexico to the Ulu
States, had left the. capital, in order' to enter
up
on his duties at Washington. In the tgentie°-a
Congress nothing like real
thought,
of any
the
seemed practicable. It was thought, however that'
the basis of some reform in the tariff might possib'i
be arranged, although the removal of the pr°'",:
bitory duties would be refused. The Senate, it
appears, are favourable to a general reduction o 10
per cent. The foreign representatives in Mexico
were still in communication with Senor Ramirez,
the Minister of Relations, on the subject of their
protest against the exceptional lowering of the
tariff at the port of Matamoras, to the injury of the
importing merchants at Tampico and
Vera Crux.
They had notified to the Minister their intention
to persist in demanding an equalization,
.and that
they would not put up with delay. If their repre-
sentations were longer neglected serious difficulties
might therefore arise, while, on the other hand, the
the position of the Government was a perplexing one'
since, if the duties were raised to their former height
at Matamorae' the revolutionary attempts on the
frontier would forthwith be recommended as a cover
for smuggling, while on the other hand a general re-
duction would at once create alarm for the revenu.ee.
With regard to the existing state of the frontier, To
accounts were far from satisfactory. Carvajal, "

now reported to be again reorganizing his projeo'

had gone up the Rio Grande with the remains of b?
forces to form a junction with " Colonel Ford,

Meanwhile he is said to have sold his lands in the
neighbourhood of the frontier to "an Anierietle:-
Company" for 200,000 dolls. Numerous other lout'
cations also show that operations will long confine%
to be carried on similar to those which preceded the
annexation of Texas. The lawless Meiicans ret?:

and murders, professing to act under orders fret!:
their own authorities; and the Americans, on the
other hand, resort to Lynch law, and hang the offee ,

caught. The object on both sides is to exagget?..l4
every individual case of violence into something t•nf.,
shall provoke a determined war, and in this they are
of course aided by both the Texan and Mesita!
newspapers.

Mr. Bailey sent a remarkable life-like bust of Robert
Stephenson, M.P., and the modelled design for the
statue of the late George Stephenson; and specimens of
sculpture by Lough, Thomas, Loft, and others, with
bronze by Callus and F. Bramah, were also grouped
around. _ _

Mr. Apsley Pellatt sent a large collection of glass,
and amidst it was placed a beautiful basket of flowers
and insects electrotyped in gold and silver, by Captain
Ibbetson.

Mr. Gould contributed some brilliant specimens of
his beautiful Humming Birds, which contrasted well
with three scenes of Falconry" by Mr. Hancock (of
Newcastle).
The priecipal room contained a numerous collection
of models, many of which were shown at work. Among
these may be particularly noticed the antistatic process
of printing, exhibited by Messrs. Glynn and Appel, who
had recently introduced a method of preparing paper by
the addition to it, while still in a state of pulp, of anin-
soluble salt of copper, and a peculiar preparation of palm
oil, so that when an attempt. was made to reproduce any
document, it became fixed to the plate, and no transfer
could be made. Messrs. Napiettand Son.exhibited an Auto-
maton Sovereign Weighing Machine, which differed
from those now in use at the Bank, by its separating the
coininto three classes, the too light--those between cer-
tain limits, which might be variable--end the too heavy,
instead of simply into the light and the full. They also
exhibited a c9tain's registering compass, which showed
at a glance the exact course the ship had taken, and the
moment when any deviation from the true course had
been made.

Mr. W. S. Lacon also explained a very beautiful
model illustrative of his ideas as to the management of
ship's boats, how they should be steered, and suspended,
and lowered in case of emergency, an important desi-
deratum.
Mr. S. Highley's Achromatic Gas Microscope Lamp,
a contrivance for combining, or rather modifying the
glaring light common to ordinary gas microscopic burners
when making researches, seemed to be an object of great
interest.

There were also many models in various branches of
engineering; Messrs. Mandalay and Messrs. Penn con-
tributing models of almost every kind of marine engine,
and to Capt Lin Henderson was due the collection of a
vast number of different kinds of vessels, for the pur-
pose of showing the great discrepancy that existed in
different countries in the lines of ships.
In railways, permanent way seemed to be the point to
which inventors chiefly devoted their thoughts, and the
various modifications of Mr. W. H. Barlow for a road
entirely of wrought iron, of Mr. Henson for a similar
rail supported by lon9,iiudinal timbers, and of Messrs.
P. W. Barlow, Greavei, Dual!, and Reed, for chairs and
supports of cast iron, so as to make the road partly or
cast, and partly of wrought, but still entirely of iron,
wero shown. Mr. Henson also contributed a beautiful
model of his covered railway goods waggon, by which it
was said a saving of at least fifty per cent. in repairs
alone over the old waggons with sheets would be
effected.

The centre table was devcts3 to an assortment of
every description of fire-arms, from the old Indian and
Chinese matchlocks, somo of which even were revolvers,
down to the Minni 4 rifle, the Colt revolver, and the Lan-
caster smooth-bored rifle. There wero also numerous
applications of Mr. Hodges' cumulators, a new mecha-
nical power obtained by the accumulation of ela,tic
force; as well as Mr. Appold's arrangement for showing
water below twenty degrees without freezing.
In the ante-room, Mr. Goddard (of Ipswich) explained
a gas cooking-stove, and an asbestos fire, in lieu of that
formerly produced by platinum, and there was also a
combined gas stove, by Mr. N. Defries. On the mantel-
piece was one of Mr. Bain's electricclocks, with the most
recent modifications, all the power being contained in
vases.

An elegant mantel-piece of Llengo!len slate stone,
showed the capability of that material for receiving the
highest polish, and by the new process of imitating mar-
ble, the very beautiful workmanship, which might be
had for a small cost.
The guests remained until a late hour, engaged in the
examination of the works of art, listonieg to the expla-
nation given of the different models, and in enjoying the
hospitality of the President is the refreshment-room.
On Wednesday the recnis were again thrown open in
the middle of the day, fur the purpose of enabling the
ladies to examine the c3ll-ction at their leisure, and
many noble and distinguished persons including the
Duchess of Sutherland, Ladies Rosse, Douglas, Ara-
bella King, 8,, &0.,
availed themselves of the opportu-
nity. They were attended by Mr. C. Manby (secretary),
and by Mr. James Forrest, who explained to them the
peculiarities of the various models.

APPOINTMENTS.
Lieutenant Henry Lloyd (1841), senior Lieutenant,
serving in the London, DO, at Sheerness, to command
the Triton, 3, iron paddle-wheel steam-vessel, of 260-
horse power, commissioned at Woolwich for service as
mail packet on the Mediterranean statior..
Clerk in Charge—Theodore W. S. Neame (1845), to
th© Triton.

Captain Rundle B. Watson, C. 8., and Liout. Hugh
M. Elliot (1847), having both completed a course of
study of steam at the factory at Woolwich Dockyard,
were examined by Mr. Charles Atherton, chief engineer
there, and received certificates.
Lieut. Henry Hannant (1842) has been appointed first
to the Encounter, vice Curtis, promoted.
Commander Henry Harvey (1841) has been appointed
to the Penelope, steam-frigate, coast of Africa, bearing
the broad pendant of Commodore Bruce, on the coast of
Africa, vice Hillyer, promoted.

Commander thoixias Miller has been appointed to
study steam at Woolwich.

The Superb, 80, Captain Purcell, is ordered round to
Sheerness, to bo inspected, prior to the ship being put
out of commission. We, in common with many others
connected with the service, regret to see so fine a ship's
company dispersed at a time when the feelings of the
whole nation aro in favour of retaining a powerful force
afloat; but we presume the defects of the ship are so
great as to compel the Admiralty to pay her off, The
Superb was built from the lines of the ex-Surveyor of
the Navy.
