THE ELECTRIC LIGHT•

.The Electric Light is a wonderful sight,
By the Press it is duly now lauded ;
Whilst numbers admit the invention a hit,
• By all it is greatly applauded.
Now we cannot do less than wish it success,
For the way of true Englishmen ever,
Is to sift and to probe, in all parts of the globe,
"True Merit," and to help it for ever.
When HYAM began his straightforward plan,
Was to throw a "strong light" all around him,
For miles all around, his system gained ground,
And the citizens nobly surround him.
The farthest he goes "for cheapness in clothes,"
Whilst his stock so extensive and splendid ;
The rich and the poor,get the best at his store,
For there thousands of costumes are blended.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
2 Copy of s letter from Mr. J. J. Wilson, Chemist, Moak Bar,

" To Mc Th•mas Prout,

" 14th Jane, 1347.
"Sts,—having suffered most dreadffilly for the last six years from
repeated attacks of the gout, and receiving no benefit from the best
medical advice I could obtain, I was induced about six weeks ago to
try a box of Blair's Gout and Rheumatic Pills. /rhea I commenced
taking them, which was in this afternoon, my feet and elbows were
very much swollen and inflamed : I was suffering the most intense
agony. I had tliat night sound and refreshing sleep, and awoke in
the morning comparatively free from pain; and before I had finished
the box. I never was better in my life : they have not only entirely
removed the gout, but have also very much improved my general
health. I have since recommended them to four individuals, who
have suffered much from gout and rheumatism ; and t!'ey all speak
highly of the benefit they have received from them. If you think
my case worthy of insertion among the many cures effected by your
wonderful medicine, you aro at perfect liberty to publish it.
" I em, Sir, yours respectfully,
" J. J. WILSON."
The above testimonial exhibits the never-failing effects of this
valuable medicine, which affords to the afflicted with gout, rheuma-
tism, lumbago, sciatica, and, all analogous complaints, speedy and
certain relief.

They require neither confinement nor attention of any kind, and
invariably prevent the disease attacking the stomach, brain, or other
vital part.

Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, in order
that it may be really the cause of mutual happiness. Could the
veil, which covers the origin of domestic wretchedness, be raised,
and its true source in every instance disclosed, in how many could
it be traced to physical disqualifications and their attendant disap-
pointments. Excesses are always injurious; the gift, which when
used in moderation is fraught with advantage, liecornes, when
abused, the prolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury
to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on
the nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate,
are productive of greater severity of misery to the human frame,
than any other to which it is subiect.

This work contains an accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs, and of
their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly
requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can
be of more importance than the preservation of the health
and of the physical capabilities of which every man should
be possessed. It unfortunately happens that the unhappy
victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired
in early life or from the follies of advanced age, while suffering
from their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap-
plying to a qualified physician for relief. Shame and the dread so
frequently, but erroneously entertained that these complaints are
beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking
for assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he
forgets that accurate discrimination in ascertaining the causes of
disease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva-
riably characterise the intelligent and practical physician, and to the
medical man who can show by possession of the requisite legal
qualifications that lie is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes-
sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr.
LA'MEItT has obtained the highest medical honours, as li:e diplomas
certify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a
,ruarantee for his professional experience, which has reference almost
solely to the treatment of these diseases.

" Sir,,—Having been afflicted for many years with a violent cough
and asthma, and having tried all other medicines in vain, I was re-
commended to try Dr. Locock's Waters. I sent for a box, and, to
my great astonishment, I found relief in the very first night, and
have continued to get better ever since. Their effects are really
wonderthi. My appetite is now good, whereas formerly I could
scarcely keep my food on my stomach.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.

MALTA, JAN. 2.—ln my last I gave some account of
the damage done to the shipping in port by the violent
gale that had been blowing. I mentioned, among ves-
sels abandoned, the brig Susan, Mills, master. I have
since ascertained this to be an error. The Susan was
lying snugly, and had on board three crews of the ships
abandoned, besides her own.

Every day gives fresh instances of the effects of the
storm. On Saturday last the Osiris, French mail
' steamer from Malta to Alexandria, put back, having in
tow the Norwegian brig Carl Pater, which vessel had
been abandoned at sea on the 29th, 25 miles off the
island.

The Carl Peter was commanded by R. H. Girlsen,
and left Licata for Messina on the 25th ult., with a full
cargo of sulphur. On the 29th she met the gale, was
dismastod, and having sprung a leak, was abandoned.
The crew arrived here by the Prussian brig Carl Gus-
tave, Captain Nierman.
The English barque, Adrastus, Markham, master, with
a cargo from Alexandria, for England, foundered off
Candia, on the 21st ult. The crew took to their boats,
and have been brought in here by the brig Woodriffe,
after being exposed to dangers of the most dreadful
kind. She foundered eight hours after she was aban-
doned. The crew artived here on the 30th. There is
also the crew of a Greek brig in port, whose vessel has
foundered at sea. I cannot, however, learn any very
accurate particulars, for being in quarantine, the means
of obtaining correct information is not so easy a matter.
To attempt to describe the damage done in the city is
useless—in order to convey a correct idea, at least. You
may be enabled, however, to imagine the force of the
wind and the waves when I assure you that the Mole
from the Master-Attendant's office to the Custom-
house is nearly impassable, having been ploughed up
by the sea.
At Fort St. Angelo (where the Creole sank) about
noon on the 28th the sea struck so heavily on the lower
battery that the sally-port gates, about 60 or 80 feet
from the sea, were beaten in, and a strong bar of iron
which secured them was snapped in two. The door of
the store-room was also broken in, and handspikes, &c.,
washed from it into the harbour.

Later in the day the work of the parapet began to
give way, and a large portion was washed into the bat-
tery. Large masses of masonry were lifted up with
ease—one mass was washed 20 feet into the battery of
the enormous weight of 105 tons. The guns and car-
riages were thrown back; some were capsized, and to
look at the battery now one would think it had withstood
a formidable siege.
Minor evils followed. On the second battery, some 60
feet above the level of the sea, the spray from the sea
water entered the wells and spoilt the water; and in the
upper battery, 110 feet above the level of the sea, all the
vegetation was destroyed fivm the effects of the spray.
At Fort Manoel an unsfirviceable French gun which
had been placed on the beach to be sent to the foundry
was washed into the sea.

Her Majesty's steamer Locust is to be paid off on
Thursday next, and the commander and the crew of the
Triton (under repairs) put on board her. She will pro-
ceed to Corfu with the next mails. The Locust arrived
here, from Corfu, on the 31st ult., and brought fine wea-
ther and fair breezes with her all the way—a strong
proof that the force of the gale was limited to a very
narrow space.
Last night a very serious disturbance between some of
the soldiers of her Majesty's 69th Regiment and some
Maltese took place. Stones were flying about in all
directions, and it is even said that swords and bayonets
were used. This may, however, be exaggeration Cer-
tain it is that several persons have been severely
wounded; some deaths were reported, but I am happy
to say that my inquiries on this point do not confirm
the report.
Her Majesty's ship Vengeance, Captain the Earl of
Hanliwicke, is to be reported ready for sea to-morrow,
and proceed with the dispatches for Sir W. Parker, re-
ceived per Ripon yesterday.
PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY.—The selection of the Right
Hon. Sir Francis Thornhill Baring, the elder represen-
tative of this borough and port in Parliament, to fill
the above appointment, was known here yesterday by
the chief friends and supporters of that baronet, and
was early published this morning to the constituency.
The announcement, as may be expected, was received
with the most lively manifestations of satisfaction by
the inhabitants of the borough generally, who did not
contemplate such good fortune as being represented by
a First Lord of that board upon whose patronage the
port and district of course solely depend. We may state,
upon the best authority, that Sir Francis has taken the
office without the prospect of a peerage. Had Sir
Francis been raised to the peerage it was the intention
of Mr. Sergeant Gazelee to have contested the borough
with any other candidate; and a large silversmith resi-
dent in this garrison intended to have proposed Lord
Frederick Fitzclarence, the Lieutenant-Governor, as
another candidate. No opposition is now contemplated
to the unanimous return of the First Lord of the Admi-
ralty. We believe we are correct in stating that a
nephew of the First Lord (who was some time since
secretary to Mr. Labouchere) will be his private secre-
tary. The bells of Portsmouth are ringing merry peals
in celebration of what the townspeople consider the
" happy event."
The broad pendant of Commodore Arthur Fanshawe,
C. 8., was hoisted to. day at 11b. 15w., for saluting pur-
poses, on board the Excellent. After the customary sa•
lutes were exchanged, it was transferred to his proper
ship, the Centaur, _in . the basin. It was the red
pendant, which constitutes him a Commodore of the
first class.

The Sharpshooter steam•schooner, Lieutenant J. C.
Bailey, Commander, came into the harbour this morning
to tit for foreign service.
Wind, W.S. W.; light breezes and dark hazy weather.
PLYMOUTH, JAN. 13.—Last night her Majesty's 12-
gun brig Racer arrived from Lisbon—left on the 20th
of December. The only British man-of-war in the
Tagus was her Majesty's brig Harlequin, 12, Com-
mander John Moore. The Racer saw nothing of Sir
Charles Napier's squadron. Twenty miles from the
Start she spoke her Majesty's brig Cygnet, 6, Com-
mander George Kenyon, from the coast of Africa,
bound to Portsmouth. Both the Racer and Cygnet
have experienced very heavy weather on their homeward
passage. The Racer is gone up harbour; her crew,
which were lent from the guard-ship here, are to be re-
turned, and the Racer is ordered to be commissioned for
foreign service.
Her Majesty's packet Crane, 6, Lieutenant-Com-
mander John Parsons, arrived from Falmouth ou Wed-
nesday, and on Friday went up harbour to refit.
Came in yesterday, the merchant ship Cheshire, of
Liverpool, Captain Hogg, from Havannah on the let of
December, bound to Falmouth for orders. On the 23d
of December, lat. 41 N., long. 38 W., passed the dis-
masted hull of a ship of 400 tons; inside, painted green;
outside, black and white streak. January 5, Ist. 45 43
N., long. 17 34 W., spoke the ship Ann, 132 days from
Callao; same day the bark Rosina, bound west. Jan. 7,
in lat. 46 36 N., long. 15 W., passed the hull of a fine
schooner or brigantine, of about 160 tons, apparently in
ballast, fore and mainmast gone by the board and lying
alongside with all gear attached, bowsprit and jibboom
standing, with jib stowed on the boom, boat in chocks,
and several water casks on deck; several stancheons gone
on the starboard side; metal bottom and fiddle head;
painted buff inside with red ports, and all black outside; no
name on stern, but made out "of Barnstaple" on the
boat. It was blowing heavily from the S.W. at the
time, and there was so much sea running that, although
within a few yards, the Cheshire's people could not
board the wreck, which appeared to have bee❑ run into
by some other vessel. Jan. 12, the Eddystone N. by E.,
6 miles, spoke the barque Celt, of Liverpool, from Lon-
don for Trinidad, with loss of one man overboard in a
gale on the 11th. The Cheshire has experienced a suc-
cession of gales all the passage, and has lost bulwarks
and spars, and received other damage.

Eighteen tons or very fine mackerel were dispatched
this evening by the South Devon Railway. These fish
were caught last night and sold to-day by the fishermen

lingsgate, Bristol, Bath, Cheltenham, and Birmingham

ROBBERY OF FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS.—This fore-
noon, about half-past eleven o'clock, a very daring and
dexterous robbery was effected in the Union Bank, In-
gram-street, by some party at present unknown. From
the information given to the police, it would appear that
Donald Campbell, the porter of the bank, had been out
collecting bills in the customary way through the town,
previous to the shutting up of the premises at the usual
hour on Saturday, and that, in the course of his out-
door visitations he had received payment of the bill for
5001., the money consisting of five 1001. notes of the
Clydesdale Banking Company. With this sum he re-
turned to the bank, which at the time was much crowded,
and after enclosing the notes in a pass-book, threw them
over the counter to Mr. M'Arthur, one of the tellers,
who was at the time actively engaged with some other
business. Ten or fifteen minutes are said to have elapsed
from the time of the pass book being thrown upon the
counter, until it was taken up by the teller, when,
strange to relate, the pass-book was found to contain no
money of any description whatever. It is not said
whether the porter kept his eye upon the book during
the whole time it lay upon the table, or at what distance
from him it was thrown; but, sure enough, the notes
were found to have been abstracted, and the police are
now in search of the thief. Criminal officers have been
dispatched by Captain Smart to the different railway
stations, to the steam-boats, and the other means of
outlet from the city, so that all suspicious parties may
be taken due cognizance of, but as yet there is no clue
to the identity of the thief.—Glasgow Saturday Post.
LONDON COFFEE AND EATING-HOUSE KEEPERS'
Assoctanosz.—Yesterday evening, the twenty-fourth
halt-yearly meeting of the members and friends of this
joint association, which was established in 1837, with the
view of affording relief to the distressed members of
these trades and their widows, and of establishing a
school for the reception and education of the orphans of
deceased members, was held at the Freemasons' Tavern,
Great Queen-street. Mr. IV. French, the treasurer, in
the chair. Mr. Abbott, the secretary, read the half-
yearly report of the committee. There had been a slight
diminution in the receipts as compared with previous
half-years. The amount of the funded property in-
vested with the Commissioners for the Reduction of the
National Debt, had been increased by the interest for
the half-year, amounting to 381. 2s. 5d., which, with the
present balance in the treasurer's hands, made the funded
property belonging to the society amount to
2,0751. 19s. I ld. There were at present eight pen-
sioners receiving relief from the society, and the sum of
above 701. was annually distributed amongst them. The
report was agreed to, and the meeting separated.
BANK or AUSTRALlA.—Yesterday the half-yearly
meeting of the proprietors of this company was held at

curred. The meeting, after som,-i

unanimous vote of confidence
in the directors, and then
adjourned.

ME DUKE or WELLINGTON.—We understand
that the Noble and Gallant Commander•in-Chief, who
is staying at Strathfieldsaye, has perfectly recovered
from his late indisposition. The Marquis and Mar-
chioness of Douro have arrived on a visit to Mr. J.
Maitland and Lady Blanche Balfour, at Whittingham
House, North Briton, from the Marquis of Tweedilale's,
Yester House, en route to town. Lord and Lady Charles
Wellesley are staying with his Grace.

Total ... 6,836
By the great circle route to Cbusan ... 5,500
Thus it appears that a vessel, after sailing 1,870 miles,
will be only 534 miles nearer China than she would have
been at the commencement of a voyage conducted on
the track of a great circle.

But there is another equally important consideration
in connexion with this great circle track across the
Pacific for steam navigation. From the Sanaret to the
Japanese Islands, a distance of 4,500 miles, there is no
intermediate station for coaling, and this distance is too
great to work a steamer profitably. But about midway
on the great circle track are situated the Fox or Aleon-
teen Islands, just about midway between California and
China, and not more than 2,800 miles from either the
place of departure and that of destination, a distance
which has been proved by the Cunard line to be a very
practicable distance for steam communication.
The Aleontean Islands belong to the Americans, and
it is on one of this group that the coal station is intended
to be established. The run from St. Francisco to China is
estimated at twenty-six days, including the stoppage of
one day for coaling at the Fox Islands.

When we take into consideration the fact that about
three-fourths of the population of this globe inhabit the
islands and countries which are washed by the Pacific,
we can scarcely overrate the value of every circumstance
calculated to increase the communication across this
ocean. For the accomplishment of this no means could
so greatly contribute as the occupation of California by
the thrifty inhabitants of the United States. But the
Rocky Mountains appeared destined to postpone the be-
nefits we anticipate, by preventing that rapid immigra-
tion which has been witnessed in other newly-founded
states. But the love of gold defies all obstacles. The
rapidity of the occupation of California bids fair to be
without precedent. To that country thousands are
flocking in search of gold, and riches, we believe, will
ultimately crown their labours—not that we anticipate
that these florid dreams of gold-finding will be literally
realised, but that greater riches than the gold soil of the
Sacramento are in store for them in the virgin
prairies of California, and in the safe and capacious har-
bours of Monterey and St. Francisco. Like the Whit-
tington of the nursery tale, although disappoietment may
await their dreams of becoming rich by gathering gold
from the soil, still I have no doubt they will establish
for themselves a more enviable wealth by industry,
through the instrumentality of agriculture, manufactures,
and commerce.—l reman your obedient servant,
Devonport, Jan. 15, 1849.

CITY ORPHAN ASIMUM.—The annual meeting of
this Institution took place yesterday at the London
Tavern; G. B. Harrison, Esq., in the chair. The pro-
ceedings commenced with an election for eight children
out of twenty-six applications (all eligible), which had
been submitted to the directors since the last meeting.
After the poll, the Rev. R. Bickerateth read the report,
from which it appeared that the average number of
children in the asylum is ninety-four, and was on the
31st of December, ninety-one—fifty-seven boys and
thirty-four girls. Applications had in two instances
been made for the admission of British orphans expelled
from an asylum in Paris during the late revolution, but,
owing to certain requisites not having been complied
with, neither was successful. The income for the past
year had been Life subscriptions, 554/. ; annual,
1,1331. 18s, 6d.; sermons, 211/. 35.; admission children by
rule 31, 440 L; dividends on 3,8501. stock, 109/.103.9d.; a
portion of a legacy, 16/. 2s. 10d.; total, 2,4642 15s. Id.—
The expenses were:—Food, 1,1321. 125.; clothing, 3141.
Bs. Bd.; medicines, 23/. 12s. 4d.; salaries, master, matron,
&e., 3081. 135.; repayment of a loan 3001. purchase, Go-
vernment securities, 3161. Bs. 4d.; collectors' commission,
671. 16s. 6d., with other items of less importance, making
in all 2,1351.45.9 d , and leaving the balance in hand on the
31st Dec. last, 74/. 2s. 11d. The report was unani-
mously adopted, after which rewards for good conduct in
service was given, with a suitable exhortation from the
chairman, to Emma Miller, Elizabeth Scannel, Ann Pom-
roy, James Heppenstal, Charlotte Cook, James Latter,
John Crowther, and Joseph Needham. The proceedings
terminated with the declaration of the poll, the successful
candidates being—Simpson, 2,745; Currie, 2.418; Chap-
man, 2,406; Seaward, 2,371; Forbes, 2,357; Hood, 2,276;
Haines, 1,966; Crathicck, 1,752.

ROYAL NAVAL BENEVOLENT SOCIETY.—The quar-
terly general meeting sf subscribers to this institution
took place yesterday at the Thatched House, St. James's-
street, Vice-admiral Sir Charles Malcolm in the chair.
The honorary secretary, Commander Dickson. read the
is port, from which it appeared that the charity was in
a flourishing, condition. The receipts for the quarter
amounted to 1,1711. Bs. 6d., and the disbursements, in-
cluding grants, to 456/., leaving a balance of upwards of
714/. in favour of the institution. The new subscribers
of all ranks, including one marine officer, numbered
160, and their subscriptions amounted to 601. 7s. 6d.,
while they had lost by death 85 subscribers, whose con-
tributions amounted to 33/. 17s. 6d. The annual sub-
scription of the society to the Adult Orphan Institution,
for educating the daughters of clergymen of the Esta-
blished Church and of officers of the army and navy,
was raised trom 20 to 22 guineas. A vote of thanks to
Admiral Sir Charles Ogle for the successful efforts he
had made to restore harmony to the quarterly meetings
of the society was moved by Commander Jay, seconded
by Captain T. Dickenson, and carried unanimously. The
proceedings then terminated.
WESTMINSTER REFORM SOCIETY.—An adjourned
meeting of this society was held last evening, at the
York Hotel, Covent-garden, to take into consideration
the following resolutions, which were passed at the Free
Trade-hall, slauchester, on the 10th inst.:—" That this
meeting resolves to co-operate with the Liverpool Finan-
cial Reform Association, and other bodies, in their
efforts to reduce the public expenditure to at least the
standard of 1835, and to secure a more equitable and
economical system of taxation.—That although a com-
bined effort throughout the country may, and will sile-
nced in effecting a large reduction in the public burdens,
yet experience has shown that economy will not be-
come the rule of Government, nor the necessity for con-
tinued agitation be done away with, until the tax-pavers
obtain a more direct and complete control over the
House of Commons, by the amendment of our system
of representation.—That, whether with a view to the
speedy success of the efforts now making to reduce
taxation, or to secure, by means of a real represen-
tation, a guarantee against future attempts of Govern-
ment to return to the present extravagant expenditure,
the most effectual mode of proceeding is that
adopted by the late Anti-Corn-law League, viz., the
extension of the franchise by the 40s. freehold qualifica-
tion, and a careful attention to the registration in
boroughs and counties; and the chairman of this meeting
is requested to take the necessary steps for the formation
of an association to carry out this object, in conjunction
with such constituencies as may bo willing to unito with
it." Mr. Louis having taken the chair, Mr. J. Bull
moved the first resolution, and after urging the necessity,
on general as well as special grounds, of reducing the
expenditure of the country, expressed it as his belief
