It has long. been felt that Torquay, with its large, wealthy,
aid Increasing population, and the great number of visitors
rho resort to it both in wint-r and summer for health and
pleasure, stands much in need of the accommodation of a
tlisstficiass modern Hotel of the character so successfully este-
ed in London and some of the leading watering places
I,lllgland and on the Continent.
ilia Company is formed o supply this requisite, and a
most'
k-ligible site, upon which the favourite residence of CoL
""•etirick now stands, has been ecured for the purpose.
mn The Hotel, with pleasure grounds of considerable extent
m." Ping to the sea, will have a southern aspect, and occupy a
,11ation generally c -nsidered the most salubrious in Tor-
quay. Here the invalid may enjoy the benefits of an Italian
"'inter without losing the comforts of an English residence.
The property selected commands one of those delightful
tel views which. have contributed to obtain for Torquay the
1119 reputation it has so long enjoyed.
rovisional arrangements have been made with the pro-
prietor of the Royal Hotel, whereby the Company will be
placed at once in possession of a valuable connection and
luerat Are business on most favourable terms. The Company
Will thus obtain an immediate source of profit, with the op-
POrtmalty of ensuring prospective advantages.
The experience of the last few years has abundantly shown
that the attractions of the modern first-class Hotel are
"agerly sought after, and having regard to this circumstance,
and to the determination of the Directors to combine in every
apartment a judicious supervision with the highest attain-
le excellence of management, no reasonable doubt can be
entertained that the present 'undertaking will prove success-
ful and amply remunerative to the shareholders.

to give up copying, in a democratic country like
ours, the aristocratic constitution of a neighbouring
nation ; it was above all a resolution condemning
the fatal doctrine, the result of which was to trans-
power from the hands of the Sovereign to orators
in the Legislature.
"The Opposition loudly asserted, that. in the last

Yesterday the adjourned inquest on John Salmon,
the engine driver, whose death resulted from the
fearful injuries he received during the recent acci-
dent at Streatham, on the Brighton Railway, was
held in the lecture room of St. Thomas's Hospital,
before Mr, Carter, the coroner for the eastern divi-
sion of the county of Surrey. As, however, a jury
could not be empannelled in consequence of the ab-
sence of two of them, who it is stated were fined in
accident,
tiagpaptiooinnt
the sum of 20 each, the coroner said he thought it
advisable, more particularly pending the public and
officialac
into
to to alltatke the
placet
circumstanceso.ni tomorrow
oowf
the
(Friday), to adjourn the inquiry to the Bth July.
Tribe, the fireman, who, it will be recollected, was
so severely injured, was found so far convalescent,
on inquiry at St. Thomas's Hospital, yesterday, as
to be able to go about and in a condition to give his
evidence, the most important that can be adduced
relative to the probable causes of the catastrophe.
The causes that conspire to produce this particular
class of accidents, denominated in French railway
nomenclature by the term " derailment," or the
escape of the engine and train from the rails, are, it
may be usefully mentioned from the reported expe-
riences of the railway department of the Board of
Trade, attributable either to impediments left on
the rails, to the wheels or axles breaking, or to the
rails or chairs being out of gear, bat to which of
these the accident in question is to be traced remains
to be discovered by the scientific inquiry which has
been most assiduously prosecuted by Col. Yolland,
the Government inspector, and the officers of the
company since the accident occurred.
The Guards are going on well, so much so that 20
of them have already left the Military Hospital in
Rochester-row, where they were under the super-
intendence of Drs. Lane and Wardrope, and Ser-
geant Ruston, and have resumed their duties at the
Wellington Barracks for some days past. Only
seven now remain in hospital, and all save one, who
is feared to have been permanently disabled, will
leave the hospital for barracks very shortly. Up
to the present time no clue appears to have been
discovered to account for the unexplained accident,
and as no photograph appears to have been taken
of the scene of the disaster, and as the line was not
left in statu quo until such time as an inspection on
the following morning could be made, great diffi-
culty will be experienced in arriving at a clear
practical conclusion.

The sixth annual meeting of the the Cotton Supply Asso-

afternoon at 3 o'clock—Mr. John Cheetham, the president,
took the chair. There was a good attendance of spinners
and manufacturers.

The report of the executive committee stated that they
had had to deal with an amount of correspondence far ex-
ceeding that of the previous year, including communications
from all parts of the world where it was posible to grow
cotton. In reply they had given instructions, and, to the
extent of their resources, assistance. So great had been the
demand that they were reluctantly compelled, in conse-
quence of scarcity, to restrict the quantity of seed supplied,
and in some instances to decline applications. Their re-
sources, if doubled, would have been insufficient. In five
years they had distributed 6,107 cwt. of cotton seed, and had
placed in the hands of those who could most usefully em-
ploy them 642 cotton gins, 62 ploughs, and numerous other
agricUtural implements, horse and cattle gear and driving
wheels for gins where steam power could not be obtained.
Medals and prizes had been awarded in India, Egypt,
Turkey, Asia Minor, &c., for valuable assistance and for
the best treatises on the management and cultivation of the
cotton plant. They had called into existence a variety of
agencies in Turkey,ltaly,Egypt, Spain, Portugal,Australia,
Brazils, Paraguay, and South America, whose efforts were
relied upon as valuable in developing the resources of their
respective countries. After alluding to the enlightened
policy of the Turkish Government in granting uncultivated
lands belonging to the state for cotton cultivation, rent free,
with exemption from all taxes for five years from import
duties on implements and machines, and commutation of
tithes, together with a liberal distribution of seed, the
report states that in Upper Egypt uncultivated lands are
to be exempt for ever from all contributions to the state if
turned to cotton growing ; whilst the Portuguese. Gover-
nment in India had granted a like exemption for fifty years
--an example of Government interest and encouragement
in striking contrast to the inertness of our Indian Govern-
ment, of which the committee had so often had reason
to complain. In Madras an improved policy had been
initiated in a few cases by the remission of assessment
for five years, but in July, 1862, Sir C. Wood revoked the
offer of the local government, and ordered their instructions
to be withdrawn, on the ground that the remission of rent

think any relaxation of effort now would be greatly to be

mills are standing idle for want of cotton, no means
should be left untried to remedy such a state of things. The

capital embarked in the cotton industry, the vast population
employed and dependent upon it, the remembrance of Ms
former prosperity, and the imperial as well as local interests
involved in its restoration, shall doubtless make every one
eager to rescue it from the ruin with which it was now
threatened." The accounts state the subscriptions at £4,096

EITSsIAN CLEMENCY.—The Posen Journal has
the following:—'" Madame M---, the wife of
landed proprietor in the neighbourhood of Wiloa, waited
on General Mouravieff, the new governor, and requested
him to revise the papers connected with the case of her hus-
band, who, she said, had been condemned unjustly by the
former governor, Nazimoff, to six years' banishment to a
distant government of the empire. Mouravieff listened
very politely to what she had to say, and promised to make
known the result. On the Bth Madame M— received
information that her husband was condemned to be shot,
and on the 10th sentence was carried into execution,"

This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free
and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for-
mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti-
tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accona-
MAMA by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient
Magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered
capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of
the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the
funds in order to Pave 500 beds available for the reception of
these the most wretched of our fellow-creatures. Moreover,
it fZratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more,
on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week.
'rhe Weekly Board feel it their imperative duty to make an
EARNEST APPEAL to the public for continued supprtt.
to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that
