informed, as a tender pro tern. to the royal yacht for the oc-
casional use of her Majesty and the Prince Consort in their
visits to Osborne House, as both the Victoria and Albert and
the Fairy are hors de combat at present. This e iv. s
truth to the rumour that her Maj. ,t y, the I'm ‘,.
and the Royal Family, intend Ist., ig a vi-i tn,
Wight this week—it is said on Saturday. 'I 1w Unditte has
the appearance of a fast vessel, and it is not much unlike the
Fairy, excepting that she is propelled by paddles instead of
a screw, and that her masts and funnel have no rake.
The Echo embarked the depot companies cf the 56th Regit'
meat from Clarence yard this morning for Parkhurst bar-
racks, Isle of Wight.
As there are not any men-of.war of small tonnage at this
port which can be made available to carry meal to Ireshiod,
the Admiralty have ordered the hire of vessels for the pur-
pose, and Mr. Davis, the Master Attendant of the Royal
Clarence Victualling Establishment, has been endeavouring,
both here and at Southampton, to take up tonnage of small
capable of stowing some thousands of bags of meal
for conveyance to Ireland. One vessel is to proceed to
Clifden, county of Galway, as soon as loaded, and another to
Kingstown, Dublin, in charge of Government officers. The
Dauntless screw steam-frigate is shipping stores for her
crew, and loading with meal, of which she will take up-
wards of 300 tons, for Tobermory, in Scotland. She sails
immediately she is laden. A small vessel is to be hired to
accompany her, loaded also with meal, which she will dis-
tribute on the small islands in the Hebrides and Orkneys,
under the directions of the commissioner. The greatest
activity continues to prevail in the Clarence-yard in grind-
ing corn for Ireland. The men work night and day. They
are alqo completing a demand for a supply of biscuit for
25,000 men.
A contract was taken on Thursday last at the above es-
tablishment for 50,, quarters of barley, at 535. 10d. per
quarter; and a contract for 500 sacks of biscuit meal, at
52e. 10d. per sack; also 500 sacks of whole wheat meal was
taken at a 'aiyate.tender at 495. sack—all foi.• immediate
delivery.
The Dol An, 3, Lieutenant-Commander 'Miller, remains at
Spithead for orders.
The gallant 'and benevolent Commander. in-Chief at this.
port, Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, Bart.; is now supplying a
great number of poor and aged people with excellent soup,
from the dockyard, three days per week—a noble example
we should like to see followed by other officers similarly
circumstanced. An incalculable amount of real good must
result.
The Wanderer was at the' Pongas, not "Lagos," on the
15th of December.
PLYMOUTII, FEB. 20.—Her Majesty's troop-ship Belleisle
Captain Kingcombe, came in last night from Portsmouth,
with the 56th Regiment, bound to Gibraltar. A case of ty-
phus fever having occurred among the troops, Captain King-
combe put the ship under quarantine on arrival. This
morning she was visited by the medical officers, under
whose orders the patient, a private, was removed to the
Royal Military Hospital at Stoke. The case is pronounced
a mild one. The Belleisle has been relieved from quarantine,
and she will proceed to sea the first opportunity. Wind
South, with occasional showers.
The French fishing-lugger Jaques, Captain Roger, belong-
ing to Dieppe, was this morning seized by Mr. Potbury,
tide surveyor, who discovered 801 b. of manufactured tobacco
concealed on board. The master and three hands are im-
prisoned at the police-station. The vessel came here under
the pretence of purchasing mackerel.
Woomvicu, E. 22.—The Odin steam-frigate, Captain
Williams, having had her compasses adjusted at Greenhithe,
by Captain Johnson, left that place yesterday morning with
meal and other provisions for Ireland.
The Terrible steam-frigate being at present in the basin at
Woolwich Dockyard, a number of naval officers and persons
connected with ship-building have availed themselves of the
opportunity of visiting her. There are now in this dockyard
two of the finest specimens of naval architecture in the
world—the Terrible, the most efficient war-steamer in her
Majesty's service, and the Royal Albert, rated 120 guns, but
pierced for and can mount 130. She is advancing in her
building, tied combines a beautiful form with very superior
strength, her timbers being put together in a peculiar mode,
never previously adopted by any other naval archi,
teet than her designer. The strength and capa-
bilities of the Terrible steam-frigate have been well
tried in all kinds of weather and in gales of wind, both steam-
ing and sailing, and under canvass without. steam. In
steaming, using only two boilers, or half her power, she has
beaten the fastest of her Majesty's war steamers with their
full power. She is so atesdy and extraordinarily easy in a
heavy sea, that she has Deter had occasion to have 'anything
secured on board in the most violent gales, and her constiinp-
tion of coal is less in proportion than any smaller steamer
that has attempted to compete with her. When in company
with the Retribution, which vessel has only one deck of gnus,
but is of the same number of horse-power as the Terrible,
while the latter had. t*o gun decks and double the quantity
of powder, shot, and shells, with 150 tons of coals on.board
more than her competitor, she beat the Retribution under
these circumstances with a consumption of 10 tons of coals.
less each day of the trial. The towing qualities sa.:. the
Terrible were fully tested when she towed the Hibernia,
first.rate of 104 guns, faster than that vessel had ever
sailed, and under various changes and different ways, tow-
ing her six, eight, and sometimes ten knots per hour. The
Terrible is now, after twelve months' work, perfect in appear-
ance, and continues as firm as the day she was launched from
the stocks.

TATLOr BEN EVOLUNT INSTITUTION.—Yestf.r lay

institution for the relit of aged sod distre,:ietl jonineymen
tailotz was held at the Freem: :ons* Taveir, Gre at-en-
street--Mr. Sprague in the chaie. The report of the com-
mittee, read by Mr. Call, stated that there had recently been
a sensible diminntion in the number of members, though the
tv..efalne and wants c: the institution had much ircre2':zd.
The committee regretted the continued apathy of the trade,
for had it nut been for a legacy of 10°!. lett by the late Mr.
George Hudson, the income would have been ler:s than last
year. Since the erection of the Institution at Haverstock-
bill the number of pensioners admitted was seventy-six, to
which five more would be added that day. The year's re-
ceipts amounted to 4,0151., and the expenditure left a balance
of 1871. The sum of 1,2731. had been added to the stock,

THE FEVER AT SIERRA•LEONE.—Letters from
Sierra Leone up to the 26th of December have been received,
reporting that the fever prevailed to such an extent in her
Majesty's sloop Wanderer, that she was kept at anchor there,
and had been placed i• 1 quarantine. Up to the above day
she had lost Lieutenant W. H. Warlters and nine of the crew,
and had 21 sick in their cots. The Contest, 12, had gone i 0
the Wanderer with previsions, and having had commnnicar
tion with her, it was deemed advisable that she should also
be placed in quarantine. The officers and crew of the
Wanderer were anxiously looking for the arrival of Com-
modore Sir Charles Llotham, in the Devastation, who would
either order the brig to Ascension or to England, to en-
deavour to stop the fever from spreading. Sir Charles
Hotham left Ascension on the 26th of December, for Siam
Leone.

ANOTHEAMANIAC .11AILWAY
TRAVELLER.

The rapidity of locor lotion peculiar to railway travelling
would really appear to have a most extradrdinary effect on
the minds of some risen, if one may jatige from the strarge
oocarrerces every now and then taking plat% -on the principal
lines of railway. It is only a few weeks since that the pub-.
ho were 'riled by an account of a
*gentleman who, after
threaten: o to.murder his cOmpani‘n in a first-class carriage-
on the Neqh-Western Railway, leaped from the train, and
by a miracle escaped with only a few slight bruises. The
day before yesterday an iacide't of a s^mewhat similar cha-
racter occulted on the South-Eastern Railway. A perann of
respectable appearance, whose name has since been ascer-
tained to be Scott, booked himself at the Folkest"ne station
of this line by a third class train for London. Daring the
progress of the train his manner attracted the observation of
some of his fellow passengers, but it was not until their ar-
rival at the Godstone road station that anything of a serious
character occurred. On reaching this place, however, Mr.
Scott exhibited an extraordinary degree of excitement, and

r!age door, end jumping on to the platform, bounded over
the hedge into an adjoining field, across which he ran at full
dead. The guard observing all that had occutoed, imme-
diately stopped the train, and giving chace, came up with
the poor fellow in a few moments. Partly by persuasion and
partly by force, he induced him to return, and having placed
him m a second-class carriage, under the care of a porter
and twe of the passengers, wh > kindly offered to undertake
the disagreeable duty, the train again proceeded. After the
train was in motion Mr. Scott's -excitement increased, and
notwithstanding the utmost precautions he contrived to forte
his head and shoulders through :the window of the carriage,
smashing the glass and frame to pieces, and being with great
difficulty prevented from precipitating himself cut of the
carriage. On arrivirg at London Bridge he was consigned
to the care of the police, who conveyed him to Southwark
Police-coUrt. Mr. Pulsford attended on the part of the com-
pony, and by desire of Mr. Macgregcr, the chairmen of the
board on the mo3;strate undertaking t 3 see that the untortu-
nate man wet restored to the care of his friends, expressed the
desire of the directors to take no further proceeding in the
matter. It has been ascertained that Mr. Scott is a student
for the Catholic priesthood, and that he was on his way from
a collegiate institution at Calais to Liverpool, where his
friends resided, when the above facts occurred.

Rica FLotra.—A parcel of rice dust, meal, or
flour, was lately imported by one of the vessels arriving from
the United States, which being a novel descripticn of impor-
tation, was nut specifically rated in the table of duties, but it
was considered to be liable to the duty of Is. per cwt. vs rice,
and ordered to be charged accordingly. The duty on rice
it' elf his been suspended or temporarily repealed, and, there-
fore, the article mentioned would now, equally with lice, be

free of daty.
A CORN STACK FIRED.—On Sunday evening a
large corn stack, containing forty quarters of wheat, near the
high road, about a mile from Strood, on the road firm
Gravesend to Rochester, was set on fire by some ma!icious
pers;,n, and was entirely consumed. It was the pr0pe1...7 a
