THE ARMY.

In consequence of the corns of Royal Marino Light In-
fantry being considerably below lie propr establishments
several additional recruiting parties have been despatched
from the headquarters of the several div:sions for the pur-
pose of raising men for that branch of the service. The
following officers from the Chatham aid other divisions
ate now employed to superintend the recruiting for the
Royal Marines in the several districts in England--Lieut.-
Col. R. Parke, Bath— Lieut,-Col. J C. D. Morrison,
London—Major W. G. R. Masters, Chdmsford—Major E.
L, Pym, Derby—Major J. Y. Holland, Gloucester—Major
G. E. 0, Jackson, Salisbury—Captain J. P. Murray,
Barnstaple—Capt. G. L. Blake, Birmirgham—Capt. C. 0.
Baker—Bury St. Edmunds—Capt. E. C. Doraville, Exeter
—Capt. C. L. A. Farmar, Hull—Capt.P. Harris, Lincoln
—Capt. W. H. H. West, Liverpool—Capt. R. V. Allen,
Manchester—Capt. W. J. Kinsman, nrtharripton—Capt.
T, P. Casey, Pontefract—Capt. w. J, Dunn, Sheffield—
Capt. S. R. Little, Taunton—Capt. T Creighton, Guild-
ford—Capt. C. L. T. Usher, Norwiel—and Capt, R. K.
Willson.

Under existing arrangements the n3w lines of advanced
forts and other defences on the Gosport side of Portsmouth
harbour contain accommodation for 137 officers and 3,100
men, exclusive of the Royal Marine Light Infantry. The
total hospital accommodation for this large number of
troops on the same side of the harbour is only for 76 officers
and men, and although the actual number of recruits now
quartered at and around Gosport only amounts to 34 offi-
cers and 853 men, as may be imagined there is a constant
transfer of sick from Gosport to the Military Hospital,
at Portsmouth, which can only be carried on at consider-
able expense, as well as discomfort and delay to the sick.
The Army Estimates for 1861-5 contain an item, "Hasler—
Converting barracks into hospital, £2,000," which is in-
tended to remedy this want of hospital accommodation for
the troops stationed at and near Gosport. The barracks
selected for the purpose contain in their present form as
barracks accommodation for 20 officers and 337 men. They
are built of brick, with hollow walls, and are generally ar-
ranged on the " hut" principle. Their situation is in every
respect suitable for the purpose of a unitary hospital, as it
adjoins the great Royal Naval Hospital at Hasher, on the
line of sea beach extending from the mouth of Portsmouth
harbaur to Stoke's Bay, at the eastern entrance of the
Solent.

METROPOLITAN.

The report of Mr. Fowler, the engineer, stated that the
Farringdon•street Station enlargement, under contract to
Mr. Kelk, was nearly completed. The new locomotives
which the directors had ordered might be expected to be
delivered during the months of May and June next. The
engine and carriage shops at the Edgware-road Station
were in an advanced state, Mr. Kelk had completed his
arrangements for a vigorous prosecution of the works of the
Finsbury Extension ; and from the large proportion of pro-
perty already acquirel Mr. Fowler expected they would be
in full operation with every part of the line and stations in
a few weeks.

EDGWARE, HIGHGATE, AND LONDON.
The report of the directors states that considerable pro-
gress had been made with the works, and that the acquisi-
tion of land also proceeded favourably. The directors had
introduced a bill into Parliament this session for powers to
construct a branch from the line near Highgate to Alexan-
dra-Park, and to widen the line from the point of junction
of the proposed branch to the Great Northern Railway.
They believed that the traffic to the park and palace would
be very large, and that the outlay for the proposed accom-
modation would be remunerative. The Tottenham and
Hampstead Company were likewise applying for powers to
extend their line to the Alexandra-park; a measure which
would seriously affect the company's interests, and which
must therefore be opposed in Parliament. The capital ac-
count showed that £66,446 had been expended, leaving a
balance of £3,1102.

ON CHLORATE OF POTASSA AND ITS USE IN OXYDISING

THE BLOOD.
DR. J. P. SARGEANT, M.R.C.S., and L.S.A.
0836), will shortly repeat his Lecture on this subject
at St. James's Hall, Piccadilly, and will satisfactorily prove
that Chlorate of Potassa, (as prepared by passing chlorine
through a mixture of quick-lime and water, and subsequently
boiling a long time with Chloride of Potassium) is a most
active remedy for oxydising the blood, and restoring vitality
to the low, vitiated state of the nervous system, and is there-
fore calculated to supersede the use of iron, meroury, quinine,
and sarsaparilla.-56, Gower-street, Bedford-square, London.

COAST LIGHTS IN SCHLESWIG.

Mr. BENTINCK asked the President of the Board of
Trade whether her Majesty's Government had received
any confirmation of a statement which had appeared
in the public journals, to the effect that the Prussian
authorities in Schleswig have extinguished all the
coast lights in that locality on the shores of the
Baltic ; and, if so, whether British shipping would not be
exposed to great inconvenience and risk in consequence of
that proceeding ; and whether, in the opinion of her Ma-
jesty's Government, such a proceeding was in accordance
with the usages of civilised warfare, in cases where the
safety of neutral vessels is thereby compromised.

Mr. M. GIBSON said that the Government were not in
possession of information on the subject, and he believed
that belligerent States would take care of their interests
without reference to those of neutral powers, (Laughter.)

ALTON, ALRESFORD, AND WINCHESTER.

The directors' report states that during the past half year
satisfactory progress had been made by the contractors in
the construction of the railway, and that the works were
now in full operation throughout the line. The contractor
was in possession, with a few exceptions, of the whole of
the land required for the railway. It would be necessary
to make a small increase to the capital of the company for
station accommodation, sidings, &c. The powers for raising
the new capital would be incorporated in the bill now before
Parliament for the construction of the Extension line from
Ropley to Fareham, to which, in connection with the direct
railway from Woking through Aldershot to Farnham, the
directors looked with confidence for a great increase of
traffic on the Alton and Winchester Railway. They be-
lieved that the new lines would be worked by the London
and South Western Company, and their construction
would make the portion of the company's line between
Alton and Hopley a part of the nearest main route from
London to the Isle of Wight, via Stokes Bay, and must in-
crease the ti affic. The expenditure and earnings of the new
line from Ropley to Fareham would be kept quite distinct
from the expenditure and earnings of the Alton and Win-
chester Railway, and the shareholders of this company
would in no way be involved in the expenditure for the new

Serious Railway Collision.

Late on Saturday night a serious accident hap-
pened on the West Midland section of the Great
Western Railway near Kidderminster. The evening
express train from London, which leaves Worcester
at 9,33 p.m., and is due at Kidderminster at ten
o'clock, had passed Hartlebury station, about three
miles from Kidderminster, when it ran into a goods
train on the same line of rails. The engine of the
passenger train, which is supposed to have been
running at the time at the rate of 40 miles an
[ hour, crushed up several trucks of the goods train,
and then becoming detached from the carriages ran
off the rails and turned over on the up line of rails,
thus blocking up the line altogether. The passen-
gers were thrown by the collision with great vio-
lence together, and some of them received severe
bruises; but providentially no life was lost, nor
were any limbs broken. The driver of the passenger
train, Reeves, just before the collision, caught sight
of the goods train in front of him, and immediately
shut off steam, reversed his engine, and called to the
stoker to jump, at the same time himself leaping
from the engine and falling down an embankment
It is said he has received serious if not fatal in-
juries. The stoker stuck to the engine and escaped
with a few bruises. The guard of the train, T.
Penzer, of Wolverhampton, was seriously hurt about
the head an-. 1. body. Information was at once sent
to Kidderminster, and several surgeons were quickly
on the spot, who attended to theiuj tired. The cause
of the disaster arose from a goods train from the
Severn Valley line (which vans into the Great Wes-
tern at Hartlebury) breaking down between Hartle-
bury and Kidderminster, On this happening, the
guard of the goods train went back, as he repre-
sents, and put down fog signals. Whether this is
true, or 'whether they were not noticed until too
late by the driver of the express train, it ie hoped
i will be elicited by a full and complete inquiry.

THAMES.

ROBBERIES OE Goeus IN TRANSIE.—Michael Duran,
a carman in the service of Mr. James Bryant, the extensive
carrier was brought before Mr. Paget, charged with steal-
ing a bag of sugar.

Mr. Charles Young, solicitor, stated the case for the pro-
secution. This was unfortunately one of those rather
Lumerous cases of stealing goods in transit by carmen and
lightermen. The prisoner had only been a few days in the
employ of the respectable prosecutor for whom he (Mr.
Young) appeared, and ho could assure the Bench Mr.
Bryant, who was entrusted with large quantities of valu-
able merchandise, took great pains to obtain honest
servants. On Thursday last the prisoner was sent to
the East India Dock by his master for F ixty
bags of sugar, which he was to take to Messrs. Allen and
Morgan's sugar refinery in Lambeth-street, Whitechapel.
He would call witnesses to prove that 60 bags of sugar were
delivered to the prisoner in the dock, and that only 59 were
delivered at the sugar bakers in Lambeth-street. Mr.
Guhard Kaimanen, a respectable licensed victualler, the
landlord of the Castle publichouse, in Little Alie-street,
opposite Lambeth-street, saw a van and three horses stand-
ing in Lambeth-street on Thursday afternoon last. The
prisoner was in charge of it. Two other men were there.
There was a oostermonger's barrow, upon which was
a bag of sugar similar to others in the van. Mr. Kai-
manen saw the prisoner give the man with the
barrow a cloth which they put over the bag
of sugar and entirely concealed it. The prisoner assisted
in covering up the bag of sugar. The two men took the
barrow away down Lambeth-street, in a southerly direc-
tion. Before that one of the men came to the corner of
Lambeth•street, lool.ed out, and then went back.
Mr. Charles Young then called several witnesses in
support of his statement.

Benjamin Arches, No. 101 H, said he took the prisoner
into custody yesterday, and upon making him acquainted
with the charge, he said the bag of sugar was taken while
he was in the sugar•.baker's office.
Ur. Paget, on hearing from the police' that the other
men engaged in the robbery were likely to bo arrested,
remanded the prisoner for a week.

strengthen the stumach, and purify the blood. Unlike many

blish a necessity for the habitual use of purgatives, and are
thus strongly recommended as the BEST FAMILY

A N APPEAL to the SHAKSPERE COM-

Patronised by her Most Gracious MAJESTY and his Royal
Highness the Prince of WALES.—The noblemen and gen-
tlemen forming the various Shakspere Committees are ear-
nestly prayed to cc ns der the appropriateness of devoting a
portion of the funds collecting for the Tercentenary Celebra-
tion of the great Poet to the above Institution, founded for
"the poor player who struts and frets his hour upon the
stage, and then is heard no more," and the education of their
children. What nobler monument could be erected to the
memory of Shakspere, himself a player, than the building
and endowing the two schools of this College in his name,
and enabling a few worn-out actors to pass in comfort to
their last home who have contributed to your
pleasure and
amusement ? Shaksper e writes :—" Good my lord, will you
see the players well bestowed ! Do you hear, let them be
well used ; for they are abstract and brief chroni, les of the
time." B. WEBSTER, Master.
