BOAT FOR HIS ROTAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCE or

Mr. H. G. Robinson, Captain Light, Captain Smith R.N.,
and Mr. C. Manby, the Secretary of the Institution of
Giwil
Engineers, attended at Buckingham palace' Fridayconstructed on morn-

She was built by Messrs. George Serle and Sons of Lamteth,
boat builders to her Majesty, and is constructed of bird's.
eye maple, the linings, saxboards, and thwarts being of
Spanish mahogany; her keel band, stem band, and rudder
hangings are of bronze, the rudder of maple, with a carved
yoke, gilt, and silk lines and tassels, of crimson and gold
colour. She is also fitted with an elegantly carved chair, the
seat of which is covered with crimson and satin damask, with
an elaborate pattern in raised velvet of the same colour, the
back being supported by the Prince of Wales' feathers,
carved in maple and heightened with gold. The rowing
mat is of the same material as the cushion of the chair, and
there is a small foot ottoman of Utrecht velvet. The sculls
are of mahogany, and very light. The boat, which is a
" single sculling skiff," is lined throughout between the tim-
bers with Captain Light's patent material, which gives to
her all the buoyancy and other properties of a life-boat. In
some recent trials of this
principle on the boats for the pre-
ventive service at Deal it was found to render them ex-
at the e
they duties
are
constantly
ex-
tremely buoyant, and a!, the same time to stiffen them so
sntawnhtliychint
much under canvas that it is determined to adopt it for the
service
employed

ing

but the recent experiments showed that when
the boats were lined with Light's buoyancy material they
were capable of carrying a full complement of hands with
much more dead weight than usual, and yet when filled gun-
wale deep with water could not be submerged. the same
principle has beon extensively used in the construction of life
belts, buoys, &c., and for the stuffing yacht cushions, mat-
trasses, &c. ; and as the material used is merely light tough
reeds properly prepared, and only three-fifths the weight of
cork, no injury can ensue from puncture or cutting, as with
air cushions, or the destruction of the elasticity, as in the
case of cork shavings.
THE ELEVENTH fitssAits.—The 11th, Prince Al-
' bert's Own, Hussars, Colonel the Earl of Cardigan. will
be inspected by his Royal Highness Prince Albert on
Wednesday next, at eleven A.M., on Wimbledon.
