DISCOVERY OP AN ANCIENT WELL IN LIVERPOOL.—
On Monday some workmen, in constructing a sewer in
Wright-street, Toxteth-park, discovered a well 50 yards
deep and 6 feet wide, filled with fine clear water. The
sides of the well are almost perfectly round and smooth.
The existence of the well was unknown by the oldest
inhabitant, and its discovery has given rise to much
speculation.
[ADVERTISEMENT.] Her Majesty's Royal Letters Patent for
valuable and extraordinary improvements in the most power-
ful and brilliant Telescopes, Camp, Race-course, Opera, and
Perspective Glasses (glazed with Munic German Glass), to know
the distances of objects viewed through them—of great im-
portance to the army, navy, and others. Messrs. S. and B.
Solomons, opticians, 39, Albemarle street, Piccadilly. Ob-
serve —opposite the York Hotel.-- These telescopes possess
such extraordinary powers that some 3. inches, with an ex-
tra eye-piece, will show distinctly Jupiter's moons, Saturn's
ring, and the double stars ; with the same telescope can be
seen a person's countenance Uwe.; miles and a half distant,
and au object from 12 to 14 miles. They are of larger and all
sizes, with increasing powers accordingly.—The Royal Ex-
hibition, 1851.--Valuable, newly-invented, very small,
powerful waistcoat-pocket glass, the size of a walnut, by which
a person can be secu and known I.miles distant; they answer
every purpose ou the race-course, and at the opera houses,
country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 5 to 6 miles.
They arc invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to
sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera,
race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with wonderful
power ; an object can be clearly seen from 10 to 12 miles
distant. Spectacle Lenses of the greatest transparent power.
The valuable advantage derived from this invention is, that
vision becoming impaired is preserved and strengthened, and
very aged persons are enabled to employ their sight at the most
minute occupation—can see with these lenses of a much less ma,g-
DiN f ing power—and they do not require the frequent changes
t,, the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Deaf-
ness—New Discovery.—The Organic V ibritor, au extraordi-
nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness,
entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the
kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced.
Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it
enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at
public assemblies ; the unpleasanathsednistaatifroeurdosf

The Resistance, 10-gun troop-ship, Master Com-
mauder Manser Bradshaw, made her number on de-
ma..-d on Sunday last at 10.45 a.m., passing the Nore
from Woolwich, bound for the West Indies.
The Meander frigate and Sylph, admiral's tender,
left the Sound at eight o'clock last evening to intercept
the Resistance steam troop-ship on her way from Ports-
mouth to the Black Sea ; if successful in falling in with
her, she is to be brought into Plymouth. The Meander
has received forty seamen and fifty marines from the Cal-
cutta. The Sylph is commanded by a lieutenant of the
Indefatigable.

The Salamander, 6, paddle-wheel sleop, Commander
Elbnan, arrived at this port last evening from China, to
be paid off.

The Centaur, 6, paddle-wheel frigate, has been taken
out of the steam basin at Portsmouth and placed in the
fitting basin, ready for docking and repair.,
The Spiteful, steam-sloop, Commander Kynaston, will
soon be ready for sea. She now only requires 1 rope-
maker, 1 sailmaker, 2 captains of the top, 2 boatswain's
mates, a bugler, a fiddler, and a few A.B.'s. She has
had the offer of three times the number of stokers she
required. •
The IVlelainpne, store-ship, was towed into Portsmouth
harbour yesterday morning, by the tug-boat, and placed
in the steam basin to land machinery ; and the Rhada-
manthus, steam-transport, hauled in the basin at the
same time, to land machinery also.
The anchor and chain slipped from the Russian bark
Augusta, which vessel was cut out at Ekness has been
cleared from her Majesty's moorings in Sheerness
harbour, and was sent up yesterday to the West India
Docks by order of the Captain Superintendent John
Jervis Tucker, to be put on board previous to her being
sold for the benefit of her gallant captors. •
The Devonshire receiving-ship for Russian prisoners
of war, Lieutenant-Commander J. H. Lloyd, was towed
to her moorings at Sheerness, No. 7, yesterday. The
following masters, late commanding Netherlands vessels
that have been taken, have been released by an applica-
tion made to the Admiralty, under date of the 27th of
July last, by Mr. J. W. May, Consul-General for the
Netherlands : Captain J. L. C. Kolle, of the Jean
Maria, and Captain H. J. Lever, of the Alida. Captain
Oostra's name was also given by Captain Hamilton in
their Lordships' letter to the Netherlands' Consul-
General, but, on applying at Sheerness for his release,
no such instructions had reached the Port Admiral from
the Admiralty. Captain Oostra is therefore detained for
the present. A further application has been made for
his release. Some of the Danish captains have com-
plained that they are deprived of the opportunity of
going to London, in order to engage professional persons
to defend their cases for obtaining the release of their
vessels. The Admiralty send them up (under charge)
when their evidence for the condemnation of their vessels
is required, but will not allow them to leave at any other
time to protect their own interests.

Rear-Admiral Hope Johnstone has been appointed
superintendent of Plymouth dockyard, vice Rear-Ad-
miral Stopfurd, who superseded Admiral Corry in the

ness.
