ARTIFICIAL LIGHT.

There are few objects in social and domestic economy
of more importance in this northern clime of ours than
the production of a cheap and good artificial light.
Yesterday there was a seance at the office of the Metro-
polis Light Company
Clark explained and illustrated h
447,his mode
anrnSotdreode when
illuminal\r
illuminating
West
light-houses and lighting the Houses of Parliament. He
stated that the light-houses on our coast, which are
under the control of the Trinity House, yield a revenue
of about 300,0001. per annum, of which about 100,0001.
is spent in lighting. The mode of lighting generally
adopted is by using oil lamps with three concentric
rings. This, Mr. Clark stated, was a great waste, the
inner
rings not having a due supply of oxygen, and con-
sequentlygiving forth a lurid blaze, which darkens
the light produced by the outer ring and burns much
oil to no purpose. He proposes to have one ring
only, and, instead of revolving lights to have stationary
lights, the lanterns having hexagonal sides, one side
being of coloured glass, by means of which the mariner
will have a clear denoting point. His plan involves
the removal of the ribbed glass at present in use
in light-houses and the substitution of transparent
glass, and he calculates that under his system the cost
of maintaining light-houses will not be more than one-
third the present cost, and that the lights will be
much more efficient than those now in use. The mode
of lighting the House of Commons has been changed
several times. At present it is lighted from the roof, the
light passing through ground glass in panels, the lights
being from three concentric rings, the same as used in
lighthouses. To obviate the heat at present engendered,
and which it was explained was caused by the use of
powerful and thick reflectors, Mr. Clark proposes to use
reflectors of a thin-spun metal with a white
vseusrfaacgre
eper-
forated so as to allow the heat to ascend. He also pro-
poses to use his single ring burner, which gi
light, and that the light should pass through ribbed
glass into the house. These improved reflectors, he
states, would not give off any heat into the house, and
inasmuch as light in passing through ground glass loses
33 per cent. of its power, it would only be necessary, in
order to produce an equal amount of light in the house,
to produce a light equal to 67 per cent, of that now pro-
duced, and consequently the amount of heat generated
would be so far lessened. Some ingenious improve-
ments in table lamps were also exhibited, and a curious
fact was stated, that since the Great Exhibition French
moderator lamps to the value of upwards of 100,0001. a
year have been imported into this country ; and several
kinds of lamps were shown which were stated to be, and
as far as we could judge from a cursory inspection are,
improvements on those ordinarily in use.

SHREWSBURY AND CHESTER

The directors of this company state, in a circular to
the shareholders, that the ordinary meeting on the 28th
inst. will be made special, for the purpose of authorizing
the issue of the remainder of the preference stock,
amounting to 76,1401., which is required to meet the
ordinary liabilities of the company, and that the
other special business is to afford to the shareholders an
opportunity, should they consider it necessary, to pass a
resolution, asking the appointment of a commissioner by
the Board of Trade to make all the investigation that
may be necessary into the state of the shares and trans-
fers of the company as the same were voted upon in
1851. They state that, notwithstanding the interference
of the solicitors and other officials of the London and
North-Western Company in buying up shares in the
Shrewsbury and Chester Company, and voting in respect
of them on the question of an alliance between the
Shrewsbury and Chester and the Great Western com-
panies, the poll of the proprietors produced a majority
in favour of the Great Western alliance of no less than
10,700 votes, which, after deduction of all questionable
votes on both sides, stood, beyond cavil or dispute, at
10,200 votes over and above all that could be swayed or
manufactured by London and North-Western agency.

spectacle produced at the tin phitheatre has ever created so great
a sensation. The Dresses and appointments have met with un-

fash'ronah.e and crowded audiences. Mr. Cooke will (by desire)
introduce his highly-trained Barb steed, whose matchless per-

London, 29, Cheapside, Aug. 24, 1853.
Sir,—l have the honour to acknowledge the receipt
of a document, signed by yourself and your reverend
brethren of the town of Plymouth, Devonport, and
Stonehouse, reflecting upon my conduct as a proprietor
of a steam-boat, called the Emperor, by allowing the
said boat to make excursion trips on the river Tamar on
Sundays. In reply to the charge, I have great pleasure
in pleading "guilty" to the same, inasmuch as it enables
me to contribute to the happiness of my fellow creatures
without violating either the commands of the Creator,
or the acknowledged laws of morality.
You state, that such conduct on my part, " involves
the breach of God's plain command to keep holy the
Sabbath Day." In reply to that charge, I maintain
that I do not infringe the commandment, but contribute
to the keeping of the same as much as yourselves, or the
Priesthood of any other religion. The Holy Command
you quote, was formerly promulgated to the Jews, sub-
sequently adopted by Christians, but with reservation
as to the meaning of the word "Holy." Christ said, "The
Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the Sabbath."
Christ hesitated not to walk in the fields on the Sabbath,
and to pluck the ears of corn. Christ broke the law of
the Sabbath, as read by the Jewish priesthood of his
time, by "doing good on the Sabbath Day; and I main-
tain, reverently and respectfully, that I am only follow-
ing in the footsteps of " The Master," by furnishing an
opportunity to the mechanic, the artisan, the over-
worked clerk, shopman, and apprentice of the densely-
populated towns of Plymouth, Devonport, and Stone-
house, of viewing the noble creations of their Maker, as
developed in the lovely scenery on the banks of the
rivers Tamar and Tavey. I give them an opportunity
which, by their occupation—by their required duties to
their employers and their families, they are prevented
from enjoying on the week day, of offering up their
prayer, " the silent homage of a grateful heart," in the
great temple of nature " not made with hands—of read-
ing " Sermons from stones, and books in running
brooks ;" and if the people prefer to read such sermons
in preference to the drowsy and repeatedly re-read ser-
mons of the clergy ; if they, believing the poet who
writes—

" Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
Uttered or unexpressed,"
prefer to offer up their prayers under the vaulted roof of
heaven, instead of under the carved roof and painted
window, or joining in the multiplied reiterations of the
Church service, which are in direct opposition to Christ's
command—

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE,

PORTSMOUTH, SEPT. 21.
The Conflict, 8, screw sloop, was taken out this morn-
ing at 10 15, on trial, to Stokes'-bay, by Lieutenant G.
H. Clarke, in charge of the steam reserve. Sir Thomas
Mitchell, the inventor of the bomerang propeller, was
on board • Mr. Murray, superintendent of the steam
department of this dockyard, and other officers, were
also on board. This was one of a series of experiments
to be tried on the reduction of surface in the ordinary
Admiralty screw propeller, to determine whether it be
an indispensable condition that the reduced screw shall
form by its reduction a bomerang propeller in order to
obtain the speed and absence of vibration produced by
the latter, many engineers being OF opinion that the
surface reduction may be applied otherwise, and equal
both Sir Thomas Mitchell's and Griffiths' screws. For
this purpose the Conflict's propeller is cast in a pitch of
19 feet 101 inches, length of 2 feet 8 inches, and diame-
ter 13 feet 7 inches, as closely as possible assimilating
to the full screw of which the bomerang, from which
such good results were obtained, is a section. The vi-
bration of the vessel was decidedly more than on her
trials with the bornerang, and the average speed of six
runs to-day was 9766 knots per hour. The day being
perfectly, or nearly calm, and sea smooth, was highly
favourable for experiments on speed. The next trial
will be with the same propeller cut at the four corners
of the blades the length of a foot from the corner or
angle of the fan.

The Barracouta, 6, paddle sloop, Commander G.
Parker, was paid advance at Spithead to-day, and will
leave to-morrow for China.

PLYMOUTH, SEPT. 21.

The crew of her Majesty's frigate Leander, 50, Cap-
tain G. St. Vincent .King, were paid wages yesterday.
She is appointed to sail on Monday, the 26th, with
supernumeraries, provisions, and stores for the Medi-
terranean.

The St. Jean d'Acre, 101, screw steam blocksbip,
Captain the Hon. H. Keppel, left the Sound At eight
o'clock yesterday morning, with supernumeraries for
Queenstown.

The Imperieuse, 50, steam-frigate, Captain Watson,
C. 8., is ordered to this port from the fleet at Queens-
town, to have a new foremast.

The Edinbugh, 58, screw gunnery ship, Captain
Hewlett, steamed into Hamoaze yesterday afternoon.
The Cyclocpi steam vessel will sail to-morrow with
supernumeraries and stores for Portsmouth ; she will
then proceed to Woolwich, and bring the remainder of
the boilers and machinery for the Nile.

DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE BY A MARRIED
WOMAN.—Last night, between seven and eight o'clock,
a desperate attempt at self-destruction was made by a
married woman of the name of Charlotte Stevenson, a
native of Banff, by swallowing a large quantity of lauda-
num. It appears that the unfortunate woman wrote a
letter to a Mrs. Chapman, of Gate-street, Holborn, re-
questing her to come as soon as possible, as she had
taken poison, and wished to give her something for her
father before she died, which led to the discovery. She
was conveyed to King's College Hospital, where Mr. J.
W. Hulke, the house surgeon, used the stomach pump,
and other antidotes, but the unfortunate woman now
lies in a most precarious state. This is the second at-
tempt within a short time ; no cause is assigned for the
rash act.
ENGLISH VERSUS YANKEE CLIPPERS.—Much interest
exists at Lloyd's, tne Jerusalem, and other coffee-houses,
in reference to the race now pending between the British
clipper-built ship StornOway and the American ship
Challenge. The Stornoway, while under the command
of Captain Robertson, now of the Cairngorm, made some
extraordinary passages, beating on one occasion this
very vessel, the Challenge, which, however, is three
times her tonnage, and consequently spreads an enor-
mous quantity of canvas. The Stornoway, under her
present commander, Captain Hast, has made the quickest
passage of the season from Bombay to China ; and it is
therefore hoped that, although the Challenge had the
start of him from Macao Roads, he will yet overhaul his
colossal competitor, and make his appearance off the
English coast as the winner of the match.
NOBLE GENEROSITY_—At the home farm of Ethie
number of masons and others are at present engaged in
erecting barns and other outhouses. A few days ago
the workmen were not a little surprised on observing
Lord Rosehill trundling a wheelbarrow towards them
from the mansion house of Ethie, and the surprise was
the more agreeable when the contents were discovered
to be refreshments for the men, in the good old English
style of beef and beer. His lordship ordered them to
sit down, and with the joyous elasticity of boyhood
served them individually with the rich viands of the
table of Northesk. Seeing so much humility in one of
the noblest houses in Scotland, the men started to then
fret, and, with thrte times three, made the homestead
ring to the healths of the Earl and Countess of Northesk,
likewise their noble servitor, Lord Rosehill.--Montrose

STEAM-BOATING ON SUNDAYS.

( From the Plymouth Weekly Journal.)
London, 29, Cheapside, Aug. 29, 1853.
Si ,—Enclosed are copies of a remonstrance from the
clergy of your town, and my reply thereto.
The question at issue is one of general interest, but
in this case the population of your locality are particu-
larly concerned.
You are, therefore, at liberty to publish the corre-
spondence or otherwise, as you think proper.
I am, sir, yours respectfully,
WELLINGTON GREGORT.
I. Latimer, Esq.

[con.]
To the Proprietors of the " Emperor" steamer.
GENTLEMEN, —We have heard with deep regret that
your steamer has lately commenced excursion trips up
the river Tamar on the Lord's day ; and, as clergymen
residing in the three towns of Plymouth, Devonport,
and Stonehouse, charged with the solemn duty of pro-
moting the honor of God, and the salvation of immortal
souls, we feel constrained respectfully to remind you,
that the employment of your vessel in such a way, not
only involves the breach of God's plain command—" to
keep holy the Sabbath day," by the proprietors and
their servants, but also holds out to others the strong
temptation to become partakers in the same sin ; by
yielding to which many of the humbler classes are de-
prived of the blessed opportunity afforded by the ordi-
nance of the Lord's day, of receiving that spiritual in-
struction and improvement which are necessary to fit us
all for the eternal sabbath of rest and peace in heaven.
We would, therefore, earnestly beseech you to listen
to our friendly remonstrance against a practice, which
must be so displeasing to Almighty God ; and to secure,
by its immediate discontinuance, your own real interests
as well as the good of your ffillow townsmen and neigh-
bours. _

We beg to remain, Gentlemen,
Your obedient and faithful servants,

TO BENBY RUSSELL.

'Tis o'er ! The last deep tone hath died away
Upon the lavished ear, and yet we pause ;
Hoping to catch one lingering note, we fear
To break the solemn stillness that pervades
The raptured throng. Although the voice be mute,
Not so the answering tone the soul gives back—
The fond response that spirit yields to spirit.
The awakened chord rings on, the throbbing heart
Beats with a wild pulsation ; for a storm
Of melody hath swept the soul's clear depths—
A magic power hath stirred the placid tide ;
So the wave rolls, although the tempest's hushed.
Oh ! fondly cherished tones, so dearly loved—
Prized above all our memory's treasured hoard.
What though the summer roses fade away.
With gentle care we tend the scattered leaves;
They can recal for us the summer's smiles.
Dear friend ! what power, what witchery is thine !
As the rock parted 'neath the Prophet's touoh,
So at thy bidding cloth the heart of stone
Give forth a stream of love and charity.
Great is the talent yielded to thy care—
A blessing unto thee, to us, to all
Who share thy gentle teachings. May we take
Each lesson to the heart, and learn to love,
With deeper awe, the God who gave to thee
A gift so beautiful and good !

MANCHESTER.

A meeting of the medical profession of Manchester
was held yesterday morning, having been convened by
Dr. Radford and Mr. J. Turner, surgeon, at the request
of the Sanitary Association, to consider the propriety of
memorialising the authorities of the city on "the pro-
priety of immediately adopting such precautionary and
preventive measures for preserving the health of the
district as the experience of the profession may deem
necessary." The proceedings were private, but we learn
that a large number of the profession attended, inclu-
ding Dr. Radford (who presided), Dr. Watts, Dr.
Wilkinson, Dr. Reed, Mr. Turner, Mr. Wilson,
Mr. Windsor, Mr. Ker, Mr. Hatton, &c. A.
long strinct of resolutions were agreed to, in which
the attention of the authorities, of the mayor, alder-
men, and town council were directed to the crowded
state of some districts of the city, and the necessity for
further sanitary measures, and suggesting that the
powers of the Board of Health should be put into force.

99,569,000

The receipts for 1852 have exceeded the esti-
mates by 2,568,247 rix dollars, the surplus will be
carried over to this year's account.

THE MAURITIUS.

The advices from Mauritius,vrid the Cape of
Good Hope, come down to the 4th of December.
The rates of exchange had been steady, with a ten-
dency upwards ; and latterly document bills had
been negotiated at 31 per cent. discount, the de-
mand for remittances havinc, been fully equal to
the supply. Bank post bills had been negotiated
at 11, and Cape Treasury at 2 per cent. discount.
A fair business had been done in sugar, at prices
ranging from 3 dols. 10c. to 5 dols. 50c., according
to quality, and shipments, compared with last year,
were increasing. The quantity dispatched up to the
3d of December, 1852, was 50,162,7471 b. against
44,662,7081 b. at the same , period in 1851 ;
38,465,8391 b. in 1850, and 41,646,4061 b. in 1849.
Tonnage having been scarce, 2/. 15s. to 2/. 17s. 6d.
had been paid to the United Kingdom. Several
vessels, however, had arrived since the beginning
of the month, and a slight decline was therefore
anticipated. The question respecting the opening
of the trade with Madagascar, was still pending,
and the ports in consequence remained closed. An
attempt, it is stated, was being made by the Cham-
ber of Commerce to raise 15,000 dols.—the sum
required by the Hova Government for the conces-
sion of the privilege—and with some prospect of
success. In the meantime, the few oxen in the
market were being rapidly consumed, and a further
improvement in the price of butchers' meat was
-shortly expected. Sheep were scarce and in de-
mand. Well selected horses would realise fair re-
turns, but there was no inquiry for mules, the crop
being well advanced and the planters generally sup-
plied. Although the arrivals of rice had increased,
quotations had not been much influenced. The
current rate of Mooghy had been 2 dols. 80c.

CONVENIENCE AND PROFIT.

THE space required for the accommodation of
the business and population of London, renders it impossible
during inclement seasons for the inhabitants of the West to visit
the East when they wish to purchase articles of Dress. E. MOSES
Sc, SON'S WEST ESTAB LI S MENT is intended to offer the required
accommodation. Every article there being the same in Style, Quality,
and Price as at their gigantic Emporium, Aidgate and Minories, at
either place the public has the accommodation of the largest, most
varied, and appropriate stock of Goods. This is a convenience which
has given the greatest satisfaction, and it is the daily aim of E.
MOSES & SON to unite convenience and• profit at each Establish-
ment. On this account every article displays the most artistic Cut,
the highest order ,of Workmanship, and the most fashionable and
serviceable materials. This applies to the novelest styles of
CAPES, WRAPPERS, AND OVERCOATS
ever offered by any house in the world, the Prices being very much
Luwer than those charged elsewhere.
E. MOSES Sc SON'S JUVENILE ATTIRE,
ready made or to measure, surpasses all others In Elegance, Dura-
bility, Comfort, and Cheapness.
HOSIERY, the elegant and useful, HATS and CAPS, the newest
shapes and most superb finish, Cheaper than at any other House.
