LIRE-ENGINES 711 E EXHIBITION.

Messrs. Merryweather and Son, of Long-acre,
are the principal manufacturers of English fire-
engines. They have not the advantage of a stand
where their productions are grouped together; the
several engines exhibited by them having been
placed at the disposal of her Majesty's Commis-
sioners, are located in various eligible places for the
purpose of protecting the building in case of fire.
The most interesting part of their display is the
steam fire-engine standing in the Cromwell-road
entrance. This is the most powerful land steam
fire-engine hitherto constructed in this country.
At the recent trial in Hyde.park it was remark-
able for its rapid generation of steam, with great
range of engine-power from jets of various sizes.
It is appropriately called the "Deluge." Another
of their products is an elegant testimonial fire-
engine, Presented by the inhabitants of Lambeth to
Mr. F. Hodges. It is not only a fine piece of
work to look at, but it is said to be the best work-
ing engine of the size ever built. They also ex-
hibit two of the London Brigade fire engines,
each for 30 men. The Country Brigade fire-
engine, known, since 1851, as the Paxton," is a
similar engine, but of lighter build, for
20 men, fully equipped. These er gines are
very generally employed by the metropolitan
parishes, in provincial towns, and abroad. A
medium,. sized fire-engine is .a handy and useful
machine for railway stations, manufactories, man-
sions. and general purposes. A similar machine is
exhibited, in a copper cistern, for use in tropical
climates. The ship's fire-engine, the " Prince of
Wales," is held in great favour by the mercantile
marine ; it is also much used for the protection of
mansions, club-houses, &c. The " Farmer's Fire-
engine" and universal agricultural force-pump was
specially commended by the jurors of the Exhibi-
tion in 1851, since which time it has been con-
siderably improved, and is almost the only machine
of the kind suitable for farm use: The " Cabinet"
fire-engine, originally made by the exhibitors for
the protection of the picture-galleriEs at Arundel
Castle, has been very largely employed for similar
purposes. Messrs. Merry weather and Son also
exhibit specimens of the improved hand-pumps,
leather and canvas buckets, leather, canvas, and
india-rubber hose, hose-reels, helmets, belts, and
hatchets, fire-cocks, &c. Many of these articles
have been arranged so as to form a trophy, sur-
mounted with a crown formed of nose-pipes, which
forms a very conspicuous object at the Crom well-
road entrance. Near the entrance to the Horti-
cultural Society's garden, Messrs. Merry weather
and Son exhibit an improved fire-escape, as used
by the Royal Society for the Protection of Life
from Fire, in London and Dublin, and in many
provincial towns.

'TRULY EFFICACIOUS ANT) MILD.-
A_ Dr. SCOTT'S BILIOUS and LIVER PILLS, pre-
rared without any mercurial ingredient, from the recipe of Dr.
•:eott, of Bromley, tient, will be found invaluable to all who
suffer from bilious and liver complaints, indigestion, wind
spasms, giddiness, dizziness of the eyes, &o. For habitual
costiveness, as a family aperient medicine, and as a purifier
of the blood, they are truly excellent; mild in their opera-
tion and grateful to the stomach, they create appetite, pro_
mote digestion, and strengthen the whole nervous system.
Sold by W. Lambert, 20, Jernivn -street, Vavmarket. London,
-and by most druggists, in boxes, is. ltd., aim three times
the quantity in one, 2s. 9d. Be sure to ask for Dr. Scott's
Bilious and Liver Pills. The genuine are a square green
package, with " William Lambert," engraved on the stamp.

711 E ARMY.

A notice has been promulgated at Chatham that
the prize money to the officers and troops engaged in
the capture and sack of Delhi, in 1857, will be paid
on and after the Ist September, on application at
Chelsea Hospital. The regiments to whom the
prize money will be distributed are the 6th Dragoon
Guards (Carabineers), 9th Dragoons, 52d Light In-
fantry, Ist battalion 60th Rifles, 61st and 75th.
A circular memorandum, addressed to the Royal
Engineers, was yesterday received at Chatham gar-
rison from the Horse Guards, announcing that in
future the period for which officers of the Royal En-
gineers shat; be allowed leave of absence from the
corps without forfeiture of pay or servant's allow-
ance, shall be two months, of 62 days, when the
leave is taken for two consecutive months, the rule
being assimilated to that followed in the case of
officers holding staff appointments.
Major-General Stransham, Inspector-General of
the Royal Marine forces, completed his autumnal
visitation of the Woolwich division of the corps on
Tuesday, by witnessing a course of rifle practice in
the Plumstead Marshes, under the superintendence
of Acting Brigade-Major Bruce, Royal Marine
Light Infantry. Thence the Inspector-General,
accompanied by his staff at Woolwich, proceeded to
an inspection of the detachment doing duty at
Deptford, under the command of Capt. Ellis. This
brought the half-yearly inspection of the division
to a conclusion. The Inspector-General desired the

commandant to notify to the men his satisfaction of_
their steadiness under arms and their general move-
ments in the field. He also expressed his gratifica-
tion on the state of the several offices and depart-
ments throughout the division. In testimony of his
satisfactory inspection of the schools, the General
made several presents of money to the most merito-
rious pupils, and ordered them a public holyday.
An order was also issued yesterday by the General's
instructions that to mark his approbation of the
efficiency which he had witnessed all divisional
drills, parades, &c., for three entire days, would be
dispensed with to enable the non-commissioned offi-
cers and men to visit the International Exhibition.
Col. Mitchell, the commandant, was also pleased to
forgive all men under his command who were con-
fined to barracks. The Inspector-General will pro-
ceed to the Plymouth division on the Bth proximo.

DAY.- r

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

STEALING PLATE AT AN HOTEL.—Charles Murphy, a
tall powerful -looking fellow, was charged before Mr. Elliott,
who sat for Mr. Tyrwhitt, with stealing a silver cream jug,
the property of Mr. Thomas Pole Price, hotel-keeper, 26,
Dover-street, Piccadilly.

John Atkins, porter to Mr. Price, said that on the pre-
vious afternoon he was about to enter the pantry 'when he
sew the prisoner at the plate. As soon as the prisoner saw
him he seized up a cream jug and ran up the area steps,
but was quickly followed by him down Berkeley-street,
and in his flight he threw away the cream jug, but at
length he caught the prisoner and handed him over to a
constable (Tizley, 65 C).

In answer to Mr. Elliott the witness eaid the cream jug

was silver.

Prisoner said he had no questions to ask. He was desti-
tute, and had nothing to eat for two days, having been
discharged from the army.

Mr. Elliott asked the prisoner whether he wished to plead
guilty, and on his answeting in the affirmative, committed
him for six months with hard labour.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Our market to-day was scantily supplied with beasts,
chiefly in poor condition. Some Scots and short-horns
changed hands steadily at very full prices ; otherwise, the
beef trade was heavy at barely Monday's currency. The
top figure was 4s 10d per Blbs. The show of sheep was
only moderate, and the mutton trade ruled firm at previous
quotations. The best Downs were worth 5s 4d per 81bs.
Prime lambs commanded quite Monday's prices, viz., 6s to
6s 4d per 81bs. Inferior lambs, however, were inactive at
late rates. Calves—the supply of which was moderate—
moved off steadily at full currencies. Iu pigs and milch
cows very little was doing on former terms.

THE LATE DISCOTERY IN CASTLE-
STR.E.E.7, LONG-ACRE.

THE MYSTERY CLEARED UP.
Information was received yesterday by Superin-
tendent M'Kenz e, of the F division, by which all
doubt or mystery with respect to the blood-stained
linen, &c., lately thrown away by a woman in
atstle-street, Long-acre, is completely removed. It
appears that a gentleman, whose name and address
and circumstances are known, was in the habit of
visiting an unfortunate woman living in Tower-
street, Seven-dials. On Friday, 15th inst, he called
on her, and saying that he was not very well, asked
her to allow him to lie down in her room, to which
she consented. After he had been in bed some
time she went to the room and found him in-
sensible. She sent for Mr. Roberts, surgeon, of
Earl-street, who, after applying restoratives with-
out effect, and opening a vein in the arm, pro-
nounced life to be extinct. Information was given
to the coroner in the usual manner, an inquest was
held, and Mr. Roberts made a post-mortem exami—
nation of the bcdy, the result of which was that
the cause of death was disease of the heart and con-
gestion of the brain. The jury returned a verdict
of natural death. The post-mortem examination
took place in the room where the man died, being
the woman's bedroom, and Mr. Roberts cut away
the shirt and undershirt as being the easiest way of
removing them from the body. Th©y were stained
with blood, partly from the opening of the vein, and
partly during the post-mortem examination. The
woman was puzzled how to dispose of the
blood-stained articles, and foolishly took them out
into the street to throw them away. This is the
simple explanation of the "supposed murder."
It is curious that the police were occupied during
a great part of Tuesday night in investigating—
cer-
tain information afforded by the friends of a person
who has been missing from home since the sth inst.
He was a cylinder-sinker, formerly employed on
the Eastern Bengal Railway, and had but lately
returned from India. Two maid servants and a
washerwoman employed at the coffeehouse where
he lodged, identified the torn and bloody shirt as
having belonged to him. They are clearly mistaken
in that identification, as the articles are unques-
tionably those removed from the body of the gentle-
man who died at the house in Tower-street, and
who of course was a very different person from the
Indian cylinder sinker.

MONEY MARKET AND COMMERCIAL.

Compared with return of 31st December, the assets and
liabilities of the bank for week ending 15th inst., exhibit the
following changes, viz. decrease in current accounts of
23,77,578r5. ; an increase in circulation of 35,46,791r5. ; an
increase in loans of 5,68,100r5. ; an increase in the bills of
9,58,791r5.; an increase in investments of 4,27,942r5. ; a
decrease in cash of 11,89,489r5.

During the fortnight, as indicated by the above return,
it will be observed that money has been in better demand.
Continued shipments of specie to the rice ports and large
payments on account of opium purchases, are the chief
cause which have led to the efflux of silver and to an in-
crease in the amount of advances.
The Bank's rates remain unaltered, but in the Bazaar
money is tighter, and the shroofs have advanced their lend-
ing rates to 7 per cent. and upwards.
In Bombay and Madras the money market continues
easy, and the Bank's rates are unchanged.
Business generally throughout the fortnight has been ex-
tremely quiet. At a season of the year when a brisk de-
mand for Manchester and Glasgow goods and fancy fabrics
is generally experienced there have been hardly any sales.
Metals of all kinds are lower and neglected. Imported
salt has given way 5 rs. per 100 mounds, and the stock on
hand is heavy. In exports a considerable business has
been done, especially in rice, jute, and seeds. Indigo and
saltpetre are quieter, and sugar in less demand.
Freights keep very steady, and rule about 25 per cent,
higher than they did a few weeks ago.

THE VICTORIA CROSS.

(From the Gazette of last evening.)
WAR•OFFICF, FEB. 25.
The Queen has been graciouly pleased to signify her
intention to confer the decoration of the Victoria Cross on
the undermentioned officers and non-commissioned officer,
whose claims to the same have been submitted to her
Majesty's approval, on account of acts of bravery performed
by them in India, as recorded against their several names,
viz.:—
London, England, 1862-02-26

Mr. Lucy, merchant, seconded the nomination

Mr. BOUGHTON, Mayor of Gloucester, put in no-
mination Mr. Richard Potter, of Standish House.
Mr. N. T. SMITH seconded it, and while alluding
to Mr. Potter's declaration that he would support
Lord Palmerston,said Lord Palmerston was as good
a Conservative as any in Gloucester. (A voice—
" What do you want to turn him out for then?")
The three candidates then addressed the electors
amidst great uproar.

Mr. POWELL regretted they could not have their
old members, Messrs. Price and Monk, to represent
them again ; but if they could not have what they
would, they must be content with the best they
could get, and he was afraid that, as far he was
concerned, they might say that bad was the best.
(Hear, hear, and laughter.) The great principle of
liberalism was just now in a critical state. It was

true the political sea was just now as untroubled as
as an island lake, but there could be doubt that the
enemies of liberal principles had been long marshal-
ling their forces, and they saw day by day that in
election after election they had been recruiting their
strength ; they were only waiting for an opportu-
nity to make an effort to transfer the Government of
the country from the hands of Lord Palmerston to

those of Lord Derby. Therefore, liberals must be up
and doing. He did not appeal to them on behalf of
liberalism ad misericordiam, but he called on them
to support liberal principles on account of their in-
trinsic worth, and to give them not a hesitating but
a hearty support, as he should do were he returned
to Parliament. (Cheers.) He considered Lord Pal-

merston and his coadjutor, Earl Russell, the fittest
persons to be at the head of the Government at this

time. He would support any well considered plan of
reform that they might think proper to introduce
in some future session of Parliament, and would
support the abolition of church rates.

Mr. BERKELEY spoke very briefly, owing to the
interruptions.

Mr. POTTER was also much interrupted, and only
a sentence here and there of his speech could be
heard. In reference to a charge made against him,
that he had been guilty of bribery at the Gloucester
election of 1857, he denied it. He reminded them
that Mr. Powell had expressed himself on that very
platform in terms of admiration of Mr. Bright, and
as to his political antagonists, said,

" How happy could I be with either,
Were t'other dear charmer away."
He concluded by calling upon them topoll plumpers
for Potter. (Loud cheers and uproar.)
