THAMES-OFFICE.

Margaret Hayes, alias Carr, was charged with
attempting to commit suicide. It appeared that the
unfortunate creature, a victim of seduction, had been
deserted by her betrayer, and for some time had
dragged on a miserable existence in the Match Walk,
Shadwell. On Weinesday she preferred a charge be-
fore the Magistrate, against a woman who had cut her
head open with a jug, and otherwise brutally used her,
but then forgave her assailant, who was consequently
discharged. The prisoner had since suffered much from
the wound in her head, her mind seemed affected, and
being seven months gone in pregnancy, and without a
friend or a penny, she flung herself from the swivel-
bridge into the London•dock. A Thames Police con-
:table, named Jones, heard the splash, procured a hook,
and fortunately soon succeeded in extricating her. She
was conveyed to a public-house, and, with medical aid,
resuscitated, after which she was taken to Wapping
Workhouse. The prisoner now expressed contrition,
and said the injuries in her head had so affected her,
that she scarce knew what she did.

The MAGISTRATE admonished tho poor woman, and
ordered her to be again taken to the workhouse.

THE RATIONAL CHARTISTS.
AN ADDRESS OF A FEW CHARTISTS IN HUDDERS-
FIELD AND ITS VICINITY TO THE PATRIOTS STRUd-
GLING FOR FREEDOM, WHO HAVE DRAWN UP THE
PLAN WHICH HAS BEEN TERMED IN DERISION THE
" NEW MOVE."
Thrice is he armed who hath his quarrel just ;
And he but naked, though lock'd up in steel,
Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted.
SHAYSPEARE.

GENTLEMEN—Accept our warmest thanks for the ho-
nest, bold, and straightforward manner in which you have,
for a number of years, stoodamong the foremost to plead
the cause of the working millions against avowed foes,
on one band, and professed friends on the other.
We cannot allow the present opportunity to pass
without testifying our entire approbation of the plan
P.l)ove referred to ; and, at the same time, we feel as-
sured you will go on through good and through ill rc-
nort, until we finally gain the goal of freedom.

It is rather curious to see how some men are striving
to connect the r,ew move with one concocted by Messrs.
Hume, Place, and Co., but " no more like it, than Ito
Hercules." What their motives are, we leave to Hea-
ven and their own consciences.

Toe " new move," as we understand it, does not
clash against any of the oil " moves," but is merely an
qddition to them, such as schools for education, Ste.
Ono would think by your opponents' arguments, that
ignorance is bl ss ;" if so, " 'tis folly to be wise."
Calling to mind your sacrifices in the cause of a free
and unshackled Press, and your straightforward conduct
since, we cannot but look with a jealous eye to reports
so industriously circulated against you, without evidence
and without proof.
Hoping that all the enemies of petty tyranny, or pub-
lic oppression, will to the rescue, we remain, sincerely
attached to the cause of truth and katice,

ARTESIAN WELL AT SOUTRAMPTON.—The
contractors for this work have now reached the depth of
76 fathoms, or 456 feet. To those of our readers who
are not adepts at measurement, it will give some idea of
the depth of this well, when we state that it consider-
ably exceeds in depth the height of either St. Paul's,
Chichester, or Salisbury Cathedrals ; is more than
double, the height of the Monument in London, and
nearly three times the height of St. Michael's Church,
in Southampton. There are, it is true, in the mining
districts many shafts which very much exceed in depth
the shaft now sinking in the common ; but we are not
aware of any shaft being sunk in the United Kingdom
of so large a diameter (some portion of it being upwards
of fifteen feet), to so great a depth through the clays and
sands overlaying the chalk, and lined as this is, with solid
brickwork set in Roman cement, or with stout cast iron
cylinders. The difficulties with which the contractors
have had to contend have been of no ordinary kind, and
notwithstanding every precaution the obstacles met with
have been such as to cause the frequent choking, of
pumps, breaking of rods, and damage to the steam-
engines. It is now, however, the opinion of those
competent to form a judgment on the subject that the
shaft is within twenty or thirty feet of the chalk, and
preparations are now making for passing through the
green sand usually found overlaying the chalk, at
great depths, under the plastic clay formation. Addi-
tional pumps and apparatus are prepared and now
being placed at the bottom of the shaft, which pumps
are so arranged that they will afford the means of
raising the water from the great depth of 600 feet from
the surface, should the Commissioners deem it desirable
to do so, and this too without altering the pumping
arrangement in the upper part of the works. We con-
gratulate the inhabitants of Southampton on the prospect
of success likely to attend this great undertaking ; and
we feel it important to notice, that while the London
and Westminster Water Company are circulating their
prospectuses for raising a capital of some hundreds of
thousands of pounds, and promising a supply of water
from the chalk of the London Basin for a much larger
number of houses than there are inhabitants in this
town, the rate-payers here have proceeded thus far in
obtaining from the chalk of the Hampshire Basin a sup-
ply of pure water at a comparatively cheap rate.—
Hampshire Independent. _ _

IMPORTANT INVENTION IN LACE MACHl-
NERY.—Considerable numbers of our mechanics, during
the last few days, have been gratified and astonished by
the inspection of a novel arrangement of mechanical
movement, which is applicable to all kinds of lace ma-
chinery. The object is to dispense with large wheels,
drums, chains, plates, and many other contrivances that
are in use at present, to enable the proprietors of lace-
machines to alter their fabrics with as little trouble and
as small a cost as possible. It is well known, however,
that numbers of industrious deserving men are ruined
in the lace trade, by the constant request for fresh pat-
terns and meshes, and the incapability of all the present
plans for producing them, only at the sacrifice of more
time and money than they can afford, or the articles,
when produced, would pay back again ; and the conse-
quence is, they are obliged to go on making unsaleable
goods, and Bolling ahemfor any price they may be offered,
however low, not only to their own loss, but with the cer-
tainty of bringing down the prices of the goods of others
that are more saleable. The apparatus, which occupies
very little room, can be made for a trifling sum compared
with any of the modes now in use, and, when once ap-
plied, the pattern can be altered without loss of time,
and only the expense of a few pasteboard cards. It con-
sists of a number of small tapits and jacks, which play on
an axle that goes through the whole of the tapits. Tho
jacks are selected by means of cards, and taken in or
out of work by the instrumentality of two bars, that arl,.
ranee and recede by means of a double crank, wli, is
connected at each end of the said bars by linlq Sa lever,
with the chisel or nose cut to operate oq hs many tapits
as there require various heights in the bar with which it
is connected, viz., if the bar attached to any one lever
wanted moving ten gates from top to bottom by two
gates at a time, only four tapits and a dead stop 7foultl
ba required ; but as the model has been seen, and we
understand a machine, with the apparatus at work, can
be seen in a few days, it will be unneeessan• for us to
give further particulars.—Nottin&a Mer-
cury.

15.—1 n consequence of a larilP, supply of new Hops
being at market on Saturday last, a decided flatness in
the demand was observ, and some of the lowest de-
scriptions did not fetch so much by ss. per cwt. as on
the previous market, pine qualities come in very short,
and are difficult to obtain at the late currency. Duty

There are 216 Mechanics' Institutions in
England, comprising 25,651 members and subscribers,
of whom about half belong to the class of workmen.
The average number a members, therefore, is 119. The
number of lectures delivered yearly in these Institutions
is about 1,198. The three great means of ustfuOtness in
Mechanics' Institutions are-Ist, Classes for regular in-
struction ; 2d, Lectures ; and 3d, Libraries.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.
(From the Hampshire Telegraph.)
PORTSMOUTH, OCT. 16.—The Columbia, troop steamer,
Mr. Robinson, commander, arrived, on Monday last, in
29 days, from Antigua, with damaged machinery ; she
went on Wednesday to Woolwich, to be paid off. The
Sappho, sloop-of-war, Commander Fraser ; Fair Rosa-
mond, Lieut. Bulman ; and Gleaner, ketch, Lieut.
Jeayes, were at Antigua ; and the Firefly, Reda, Tar-
tarus, and Flamer, steam packets, were at Barbadoes.
The West Indies were considered healthy, but the is-
landers were in great trepidation lest a war should break
out with America—an event which would ruin the trade
of the West Indies.
The Numa, transport, arrived on Sunday from Ber-
muda, with invalids and naval stores, and proceeded on
Thursday to Chatham.
The Styx steamer, Captain E. S. Vidal, is hourly ex-
pected at this port, from the Eastward, for the purpose of
embarking Sir Charles Bagot, the new Governor-General
of Canada. Late this evening she had not made her
appearance ; the heavy westerly gales must have detained
her. His Excellency arrived at the George Hotel in this
town, from London, last evening.

Lieut. Luard. She has been taken into dock to have her
copper swept. The Rapid, 10, Lieut. Tryon, arrived on
Wednesday, from Liverpool and Bristol, with 56 seamen
for the ships fitting at this port. She sailed again to-
day for Waterford, to bring round others. The Mada-
gascar, 44, Captain Foote, is ordered to be ready for
sea by the Ist of next month. It is understood she is
to relieve the Seringapatam, in the West Indies. The
Thunder, Commander Barnett, and Lynx, Lieut. Burs-
lem, were yesterday towed to the Nore by the Monkey
steamer. The Illustrious, 72, will be ready for sea in
three weeks; she wants only fifty seamen to complete
her complement. The Siren, sloop-of-war, is ordered
to be got ready with all dispatch at Woolwich; she will
be completed about the 25th for service in China.

On Saturday, at the meeting of the Marylebone
Vestry, a letter was read from the proprietors of Rankin's
patent wood paving, offering to lay down the material
for three years, or any other
.period, at an annrAtil charge
of three shillings per yard, instead of at wee charging
sixteen shillings per yard for it. A letter from a Mr.
Parkin offered to pave all Oxford-street with wood at
ten shillings per square yard, to be paid for as com-
pleted. This latter proposition was passed over by
being ordered to lie on the table. The adjourned debate
as to the farmer proposition of the proprietors of Ran-
kin's patent was there oper.ed, and of course soon ended
by its rejection, as a Lw: more favourable one had been
now made 1 and, en it was afterwards proved that in
propeAlion to the annual cost of the level parts of the
ZiAlloadamizfd portion of Oxford-street that the employ-
ment of this splendid specimen, when used where there
was most wear and tear, and on a hill, which would
effectually try its qualities, would only exceed the cost
of the present repair in three years by sixty pounds, the
proposal was adopted.
