APPENDrx No. 2.
Circular to the Admirals and Captains superintending her
Majesty's Dockyards.
Admiralty, Feb. 27, 1847.
Sir, —I am directed by the Lords Commissioners of the
Admiralty to inform you that they have- felt themselves
compelled to take the condition of the dockyards under
their most serious consideration.
The subject is one of great magnitude. The vote for
wages and salaries, in her Majesty's establishments at home
and abroad, under Nos. 6,7, 8, and 9, has averaged
810,664/. during the last four years. It is a constantly in-
creasing vote. The vote for 184344 was 779,3861. The
vote for the current year is 951,8861. The vote for stores
(including steam machinery) for 1846-47 amounted to
1,694,1521., and that for buildings and new works to
526,8101. The machinery already in existence in the dock
and victualling yards is increasing annually in value ; and
large additions must be made to it, as the steam factories
at Portsmouth, Keyham, and Malta advance towards com-
pletion. No reduction in this branch of the establishment
is probable or possible, for the steam factories must keep
pace with the growth of the steam navy, which, again, is
determined by considerations of national policy.
As yet, provision has been made only for the average
annual repair of machinery of 20,000 horse-power, out of a
total of 40,000 horse-power; and every succeeding oard of
Admiralty has recognised the inconvenience, bad economy,
and peril in the event of war, of allowing these repairs to
be limited to the single factory at Woolwich. But the
greater the extension, present and prospective, of the dock
yards, and of the steam factories in connection with them,
the greater is the necessity of securing in them the most
careful and efficient management. -Upon such an expendi-
ture the smallest savings are important, and in spite of the
improvements already engrafted upon the old system, by
the appointment of engineers to take charge of the machi-
nery in the yards, and to relieve the master shipwright
from duties which did not come within the sphere of his
ordinary avocations—in spite of the large and useful
changes connected with the department of the director of
works, which have also relieved the yards from the main-
tenance of the buildings, and the more recent improve-
ments to which my lords expect that the recommendations
of the committee of metals will give rise, by placing all
matters connected with copper and iron under a special
superintendence and ensuring the early introduction into
the Government yards of the best modes of working
adopted in private establishments—still much is left to be
done before a satisfactory result can be arrived at.
In
take an say
unfingavo this my lords do not wish to imply that they
unfavourable view of these great national establish-
ments. They have much satisfaction in acknowleding the
iv,od moral tone that prevails amongst the artificers gene-
rally, and the excellent quality o work perfo ed b
them. On the other hand, theythink that there is abuny-
dant evidence to show that the quantity of work done is
meowsthe standard of well-conducted private establish-
, and that there is great room for improvement in the
application both of store and labe,,r.
Their lordahips will
not entertain any general charges of indifference to expense
on the part of the officers, or of inertness on upon r the
men • and they are equally unwilling to dwell upon repre-

they can conceive nothing more

cipline, if true, or more detrimental to the
They wish to look forward, not to
being to introduce a system that may inspire every
man
with the belief that his conduct will be knownand
his Pre-
elated by his superiors, and that, however humble po-
sition originally, his future fate depends upon his own
exertions.
Their lordships see too much reason to apprehend that
such is not the present state of feeling in the dockyards ;
but that the rise from shipwright to leading man,
and from
matter of
leading man to inspector, is regarded rather as a
accident, or favour, than as a reward due to merit, and to
be dispensed upon plain and equitable principles. They
feel that wherever such an impression prevails insubordina-
tion must be weakened, and they have consequently re-
solved to lay down one fixed and intelligible rule of promo-
tion for all classes, as the best foundation of that more
vigilant and intelligent superintendence which they regard
as indispensable.
For the discipline of the yard, like the discipline of the
ship, depends upon the petty officers, and no exertions of
the admirals or captains superintendent, or of the master
shipwrights, can compensate for the want of a hearty co-
operation on the part of the inspectors and leading men, to
whom the case of the separate gangs is confined, and with
whom it rests to enforce a proper economy in the use of the
stores and materials issued for the work going on under
their superintendence.
It is necessary, however, as the first step towards this
extended responsibility, to remove all just causes sof com-
plaint amongst that class of officers from whose exertions
benefit is anticipated.
My lords have, therefore, duly considered the petitions
presented by the inspectors of the different dockyards.
They find by these, that, with a salary of 1001. a year, they
are expected to maintain the station and authority of offi-
cers—that in 1833, when the pay of the inspector was fixed,
the workmen were only employed five days a week, whereas i
they are now employed six days, for which the working

Sir,—Sir Charles Napier has favoured the public with
a letter on the subject of invasion, which, as usual, he
closes with the "Now' sir," that precedes a long string
of questions. In this letter he says, " We have no fleet,
or rather, we have not men to man it ;" but the gallant
admiral has the " discretion" not to touch on the reason
that prevents seamen entering the navy. He carefully
avoids mentioning the corporal and secondary punish-
ments which it is well known deter men from volun-
teering their services, although he is well aware that the
extreme severity of those punishments, inflicted without
trial at the discretion of the commanding officer, is the
cause of the evil he mentions ; and until sailors are pro-
tected from cruelty and oppression by ship court-
martial, all the promises of increase of pay and ra-
tions will fail to induce them to serve the country.
It is a well-known fact, that the few good seamen
who do enter the navy, take especial care to ascertain
the disposition of the captain of the ship before they go
on board, so that the manning of the navy depends on
the character for humanity of the commanding officers
of the fleet. The gentlemen of England who sit in Par-
liament are quite satisfied, when the subject of naval
punishment is brought before them, with an assurance
from the First Lord, that " only 48 lashes can be in-
flicted in one day," and are alarmed at the ominous
shake of the head of the slid First Lord that accom-
panies a caution to the house to " pause before they in-
terfere with the laws that govern the navy." But not
one of their lordships have as yet condescended to state
their reasons for this solemn warning. What are we to
infer from all mystery ? Why, that the discipline e f
the navy is
.of a nature that will not bear investigation.
Captains of our men-of-war punish without court-mar-
tial, and when we consider that, according to the state-
mentms

The case will be better understood in the form of a
narrative. It appeared that the prisoner is a porter at
Bath. On the night of the 11th of January he was at a
public-house in Avon-street, Bath, which is a low part
of the town. While there a strange woman came in,
who appeared to be an Irishwoman by her language.
She got into conversation with the prisoner and another
man named Bernett. They drank together, and left
at about eleven, and were seen to go down a lane lead-
ing to the river. While in the lane the woman and the
men were heard scuffling and in altercation. They were
also seen to go on to the towing-path of the river by a
lad named Ellerton, who had followed them. He heard
a scuffling, and then the man Bernett ran by him. He
went on, and saw Perron and the woman together. She
was chasing him and calling him a villain, and putting
up her hair. She said she would go to the station-
house, and Perron said he would show her the way.
They went on a little way, and were ahead of Ellerton.
He heard her say, " Where are you taking me to ?" It
was very dark. He heard their footsteps. Soon after
he heard the woman cry out, " Murder ! Jesus ! mur-
der !" Immediately after that Perron came running
back, and said "Oh, Christ !" Ellerton ran back after
Perron, and he saw or heard nothing more of the
woman. At this very time, a woman, who keeps a
ferry close to where the cry of murder was, heard
piercing screams. She went out, and called out, " Is
there any one in the water ?" but there was no reply.
Nothing more was seen of the poor woman ; but in the
afternoon of the next day her body was found several
miles down the river, under a mill-wheel, where, in all
probability, it had been washed by the stream, the river
being much swollen at the time. Her body was examined
by a surgeon, and on her forehead was a slight wound,

CLEOPATRA'S NEEDLE.—Mr. Anderson' the managing
director of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam Naviga-
tion Company, and a director of the Crystal Palace Com-
pany, left England for Egypt about a month since for
the purpose of making arrangements for the transmis-
sion of Cleopatra's Needle from its present bed on the
shores of the Mediterranean to the Park at Sydenham.
It would appear from communications recently received
from Mr. Anderson, that great difficulties in the way of
the removal of this ancient memorial have presented
themselves. The needle is actually built into a part of
the sea wall and ramparts forming the fortification of
the city of Alexandria, and to pull down so much of the
fortification as would be required to disinter the obelisk
and launch it, and afterwards to rebuild the wall, would
not only occupy a great space of time, but must involve
a considerable amount of expense not originally antici-
pated. In addition to these circumstances, it is stated
that the Viceroy himself has a very strong objection to a
breach of such a nature being made or left open for any
time in the present state of European politics. With
respect to procuring casts from ancient works of art in
Egypt, which formed also one of the objects of Mr.
Anderson's visits to Alexandria, that gentleman reports
that he had an interview with the Viceroy of Egypt on
the sth of March, and that the Paella then kindly
assured him that every facility should be afforded to any
person commissioned by the company to collect copies of
works in Egypt. The Pasha inquired into the nature
and objects of the Exhibition, and took the greatest
interest in the details submitted to him. At the date of
Mr. Anderson's letter that gentleman was proceeding to
inspect the statue of Rameses at Mitrahennd, and to
visit the new excavations at Saccarah, which are likely.
to furnish valuable' contributions to the fine arts depart-
ment of the Sydenham Palace.
THE LAW OF MARRIAGE IN FRANCE.—The Imperial
Court of Paris has just been occupied for three days, in
hearing arguments in a case which may be of some in-
terest to English people. In 1823, Captain Weir, of the
English navy, came to live with his family in France,
and took up his residence at Loches. He had a daugh-
ter Emma. When she attained the age of 23, she was
sought in marriage by M. Alfred Perault, an officer of a
cavalry regiment ; and as he knew that his father would
object to his marrying, he went with her to Jersey,
where they were married by a Protestant minister, with-
out any of the formalities required to be observed by the
French law. This was in September, 1831, and in No-
vember, 1832, a son was born. M. Perault's father took
law proceedings for the purpose of having the marriage
annulled, on the ground that it had been clandestinely
celebrated. At first M. Perault, jun. and his wife op-
posed these proceedings, but after a while they separated,
and allowed them to take their course. The marriage
was accordingly declared null by the Tribunal of Nantes
and the Court of Rennes. Some years after, M. A.
Perault and his father and mother died, and their fortune
passed to Madame de Julvecourt, sister of the former
and daughter of the two latter. In 1852, Madame Weir
demanded from Madame Julvecourt a portion of M. A.
Perault's property for her son ; and as this was refused,
she brought an action before the Civil Tribunal against
that lady for the purpose of having the claim allowed.
She contended, in support of it, that both she and Pe-
rault had celebrated the marriage in the belief that it
was perfectly regular, and that, even if it were not, the
son ought not to suffer. But the Tribunal declared that
it was tainted with fraud, that she must be assumed to
hive known that, and consequently the son had no claim
to any portion of his father's property. She appealed to
the Imperial Court, but the judgment was confirmed.
In the course of the proceedings it was stated that M.
de Julvecourt, husband of the defendant, had promised
that the son of Madame Weir should be provided for.—
Galignsni.
AN -up AND DOWN REPLY.—During the examination
of a witness, as to the locality of stairs in a house, the
counsel asked him—." Which way the stairs run ?" The
witness, who, by the way, was a noted wag, replied,
that "one way they ran up stairs, but that the other
way they ran down stairs." The learned counsel winked
both eyes, and then took a look at the ceiling.

—Extract of a letter from Mr. J. Hird, draper, Beady,
dated Feb. 14, 1852, to Professor Holloway :—" Sir,—
My child, when three months old, was afflicted with a
severe eruption all over her body. I sought every aid
and the advice of surgeons and physicians, by all of
whom the case was considered hopeless. I then tried
your Ointment and Pills, and without exaggeration the
effect was miraculous, for in a short time she was restored
to perfect health, and so remains. Mr. Bowden, book•
seller, Gainsborough, mid myself, would be happy to
satisfy any inquiries as to the truth of this statement."

THE MEMORY OF THE DEAD.--Mr. Charles Bianconi,
who is at present in Rome, writes to the Te/egraPh,
saying that he has found theheart of Mr. O'Connell in
the same condition in which it was deposited by the
hands of the Rev. Mr. Miley, the confessor of the great
agitator. Nothing has been done with respect to the
erection of a monument in Rome to this relic of the de-
ceased, and accordingly Mr. Bianconi, the "alien," de-
clares that if none others will take upon themselves to
accomplish something worthy of the man, he will, at his
own expense, raise a monument to perpetuate the
memory of Mr. O'Connell in Rome.
