A general meeting of the fellows of the Royal Geo-
graphical Society was held last night in the theatre of
the Royal Institution, Albemarle-street ; Sir Roderick
Murchison, F.R.S., the president, in the chair.
The meeting was very numerously attended, amongst
whom were General Monteith, James Silk Buckingham,
Esq., W. Arrowsmith, Esq., J. Hamilton, Esq., Capt.
Kennedy, Lieut. Benton (from Arabia), Sir Frederick
Nicholson, Colonel Neil Campbell, Mr. W. Richard
Hamilton, Dr. Hodgkin. James Bell, Esq., M.P. Capt.
Blackwood, RN.' Sir Woodbine Parish, Sir Charles
Fellowes, Admiral Percy, &c.
Dr. Norton Shaw, the secretary, having read the
minutes of the last meeting, the society proceeded to
ballot for Commander Miller, James Tilbard, Esq.,
Captain Moorsom, R.N., Commander Cracroft, Dr.
Joint Rae (of the Hudson's Bay Company, and the re-
cent explorer of the Arctic Regions), J. Cunningham,
Esq., R. M. Milnes, Esq., M.P., and the whole of these
gentlemen were elected as fellows of the society.
Captain Allen, RN., at the call of the president, read
a paper "On the feasibility of forming a canal between
he Gulf of Akabah and the Dead Sea." The purport
and object' of this paper were to show that the Dead Sea
has now a depression of 1,300 feet below the Mediter-
ranean, which had hitherto been unaccounted for, and
‘f which he had made certain observations during his
approach to it by the shores of Jericho. From these
observations he had come to the conclusion that the
Strait at Akabah might have been closed at some un-
known period, either by a gradual up-heaving of the
land, or by the growth of coral, by deposits of sand and
.:,-ravel thrown up by the sea, and by the sandstones of
iae Desert. He then went into some other statements
;.,o show the practicability of the waters of the Dead Sea
neing carried into the Red Sea and Mediterranean and
vice versa, the accomplishment of which important work
would open a new and shortened route to India antl
China.
The PRESIDENT said this subject had already been
treated of by Lieut. J. F. Symons, a member of their
society, who, in 1842, obtained the Queen's gold medal
for his survey in Palestine, and levels across the country
to the Dead Sea. It was a subject deeply interesting,
and he hoped that Captain Allen would still further de-
velope his important observations.
After a few observations from Mr. Petermann and
Mr. Arrowsmith, the thanks of the society were passed
to Captain Allen for his paper.
The next paper read was a journal, by Dr. Robinson,
of a journey through Palestine.
Mr. S. BUCKINGHAM, as one who had visited the Dead
Sea, as well as Balbec and Orentes, wished to make a
few observations, and, in doing so, generally concurred
in the observations made by Captain Allen, and bore
testimony to the rapid growth of coral banks. He men-
tioned the case of a ship that was wrecked some years
ago on a line with Ceylon, when the persons made their
way to the shore, the water being then but breast high.
Some thirty years after this, one of the persons, com-
manding b
a 8-4), happened to touch on this very coast,
and there found a ship at anchor, with a large island
grown up, covered with palm trees, and from which
island a supply of water was obtained. This gave a
strong proof of the rapid growth of coral reefs. Mr.
Buckingham then at some length treated on the wonders
of the temples of Palmyra and Balbec, and concluded
his observations amidst general cheers.
Mr. HAMILTON, in allusion to the Temple of Balbec,
said so enormous were the stones used in its construc-
tion, that a former '„ravelier had feared to give'their im-
mense proportions in his work, as he was unwilling to
hazard his fame on a subject upon which the public
might be sceptical. He had himself measured them, and
found some of them upwards of 70 feet in length, and 12
feet in thickness.
Some other members having corroborated these state-
ments, thanks were voted to Dr. Robinson for his
paper, an
instant.a the meeting was adjourned until the 24th

The prisoner was then remanded. Considerable sensa-
tion was caused on 'Change in the course of the day by
the prevailing report that the prisoner had obtained by
means similar to those described in the evidence double
the amount of the sums mentioned in the course of the
examination.

DIABOLICAL ATTEMPT TO DESTROY A VILLAGE BY
FlRE.—During the last week the quiet town of Olney,
near Newport Pagnel, has been in a state of alarm and
terror by repeated attrocious attempts to destroy the
place by fire. Nightly have premises been fired in
various parts, causing the destruction of numerous
houses, and in one instance a melancholy loss of human
life. The wretches commenced their fiendish work on
Christmas-eve, by firing a barley stack on the extensive
homestead of Mr. R. Whitmore, adjoining the village,
with an intention of destroying the whole of that gen-
tleman's premises ; but the timely arrival of assistance
prevented the flames extending beyond the stack, which
was destroyed. The next night, at the same hour,
another farm, tenanted by Miss Rasan, adjacent to the
village, was fired, and considerable mischief occurred.
On New-year's-eve again the thrilling cry of fire
resounded through the streets, and a fearful one proved
to be raging in a large barn and other premises of Mr.
Joseph Palmer, situate in the centre of the village.
Here a shocking scene presented itself; amidst the roar-
ing flames were to be seen nine fat bullocks chained to
the rack. To save them was impossible, and, after
writhing in agony for several minutes, they fell, and
were burned to death. A number of sheep and pigs
shared a similar fate, the whole of the premises
being consumed. The next night, Sunday, an
attempt was made to set fire to the town, by thrust-
ing lighted lucifers and paper under the thatched
roof of the houses. It was fortunately very early discover-
ed, and suppressed ere any material damage was done.
This diabolical act led to much commotion. Watchers
were appointed to the neighbouring farms and other
buildings in the place,
i and every means adopted to de-
tect the villains, but n vain, for on the following day
(last Tuesday) the centre of the town was fired, and the
destruction that followed was very extensive, and un-
happily caused the death of two parties who had cou-
rageously come forward to extinguish the destructive
element. When discovered, the fire was raging on some
thatched buildings at the back of the houses in the main
street. It extended to the premises of Mr. Killing-
worth, watchmaker, and those of Mr. Saul, junior, Mr.
Saul, Miss Brooks, Mr. John Field, Mr. John Lembrey,
the Duke of York Inn, and numerous cottages tenanted
by poor labouring families, nearly the whole of which
were destroyed. In consequence of several persons be-
ing missed, the ruins were searched, when huinan life
was found to have been sacrificed. Beneath were found
the remains of William Scott, a labourer of Mr. Palmer,
a farmer, and John Mason, a rat catcher, who seemed to
have been killed .by the falling of a wall upon them.
Their bodies were conveyed to the parish church to
await a coroner's inquest. It was midnight before the
flames were got under. Up to the last accounts re-

AN -EXAMPLE FOR RECORDERS.—The determination
of the learned Recorder of this town, Samuel Warren,
Esq., Q. 0., to make himself thoroughly acquainted with
all circumstances pertaining to the duties which he is
called upon to discharge, in his official capacity, was
exhibited particularly on Wednesday last. On that day
the learned gentleman visited our borough goal, spending
nearly four hours there. He examined into every de-
partment with the utmost minuteness, and made every
inquiry as to the discipline and mode of treatment of
the prisoners. He also passed some time in conversation
with the prisoner Dr. Wood, whom he found in solitary
confinement, part of the sentence passed upon him.
This visit of the learned Recorder to the gaol is a most
gratifying circumstance, and is an earnest that he will
leave nothing undone which can at all tend to assist him
properly to fulfil his duties.—Bull Advertiser.
SuremEs IN PARIS.—For the last few day suicides
have been very frequent. The day before yesterday
Dr. Fiard blew out his brains, at his residence in the
Rue Hauteville ; a dressmaker, in the Rue St. Jacques,
suffocated herself with the fumes of charcoal ' • and two
other persons drowned themselves in the canal.
PUBLIC LIRRARIES.—The town council of Bristol have
appointed a committee of their own body to take into
consideration the propriety of establishing a public
library in the city, under the Public Libraries Act.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—Diseases of the Kidneys, Blad-
der, &c.—Dr. Denis Cronin has removed from Leicester-
place to 35, Bruton-street, Berkeley-square, where he
may be consulted, as usual, from ten till two, on his
treatment of affections of the kidneys, bladder, and
prostrate gland, in their connection with diseases of the
stomach and liver. Urinary Analysis (the
importance
of which to the successful treatment of disease is now
fully acknowledged) conducted daily, in accordance
with Dr. D. Cronin's new theory.

Mr. Johnson, the witness who at the last examination
spoke as to the assaying of the watch-chain purchased
by Mr. Ward, attended to make what he conscientiously
believed to be a necessary, although perhaps not an
essential, correction ; and also to make an addition to
the testimony he had given on the occasion.
Mr. Parry and Mr. Humphreys attended for the pro-
secution, and Mr. nobler for the defence.

Horwich, states, in a letter to Professor Holloway, dated
Nov, 1852, that a man named Kay Bate, was suffering
dreadfully from bad legs ; they were covered from the
knee to the ankle with sores and proud flesh, interspersed
with white and red blotches. He recommended Hol-
loway's Pills and Ointment, which produced a most ex-
traordinary result, for in less than three weeks the sores
were healed, and he walked about with ease and comfort.
His legs are now perfectly sound and well, and his
bodily health much improved.—Sold by all Druggists,
