PAUL'A EVERY MNN'S FRIEND (CORN PLAISTER) Is ge-
nerally admitted to be the best emollient application for Corns and
Bunions, and is worthy of a trial on the part of those who are
afflicted with such unpleasant companions.
Testimonials have been rectiVed from upwards of one hundred
Physicians and Surgeon 4 of the greatest eminence, as well as from
many Officers of both Army and Navy, and nearly one thousand
private letters from the gentry in town and country, speaking in
high terms of this valuable remedy.
Prepared by John Fox, in boxes at Is. I lid., or three small boxes
in one for 2s. 9d.; and to be had, with full directions for Use, of C.
Man, 34, Napier street, Hoxton New-town, Lend.oti; and all whole-
sale and retail medicine vendors, in town and country. The genuine
has the name of " John Fox" on the stamp. A 2s. 9d. box cures
the most obdurate corns. Ask ibr " Paul's Every Man's Friend."
Sold also by Barclay and Sons, Farringdon-street ; Edwards, 67,
St; Paul's Church-yard ; Butler, 4, Cheapside ; Newbery, St. Paul's ;
Sutton, Bow Church-yard; Johnston, 16, Greek-street, Soho; and
68, Cornhill ; Sanger, 150, Oxford-street; Willoughby and Co., 61,
Ilishopsgate-street Without; Owen, 52, Marchmont-street, Burton-
crescent; Eade, 39, Geswell street; Profit, 229, Strand; Hannay and
Co., 63, Oxford-street ; Hunter and James, Webber-row ; and retaiL
by all respectable chemists and medicine vendors in every town iu
England.

GILD, SILVER, DIAMONDS, PEARLS, and
all the most precious and costly gems, are imitated to Bitch
perfection, that but very few uninitiated persons can poettiVely tell a
paste brooch or a ring from a diamond, the real pearl from the
imitation, or German Silver from the genuine ; but put them into
the hands of the connoisseur, how soon the delusion vanishes when
he affirms they are but vile and base imitations. So it is with the
Most valuable inventions as well as stones and metals. None bitt
the inimitable in value are imitated in appearance, and as soon do
the consumer (the best connoisseur) attempts to use Riot% hoW soon
he finds out their utter uselessness. Thus it is with the Most valuable
of all inventions ; the celebrated METALLIQ RAZOR TABLET
of GEORGE SAUNDERS has been the target for imitation for
the last thirty years.

To Gentlemen who shave themselves the following query is pro-
posed.—Why do all the first cutlers in Europe use and recommend
Saunders' Four-sided Tablet Razor Strop ? The answer is simply
because it is the only out that gives to a razor a keen and smooth
edge.

PRIOR SD.

no money, they had taken it for the last thirteen years
He would ask, in eonciu,ion, whether the people or the
Gov, rnment would suffer the very salvation of this
country to be delayed by the objections of a compara-
tively small section ? He said comparatively, for,
notwithstanding their respectability in other points,
compared with the people at large, the Dissenters were
a small party. He was sure that, after the excitment
that existed on this subject had passed away, those who
were opposed to the Government scheme at present would
gladly avail themselves of the assistance that was now
offered with so liberal a hand, and that they would join
together to advance the moral, social, and religious im-
provement of those classes in this country, who, if they
were suffered to remain in their present state of degrada-
tion, would be the cause of the destruction of the
country, instead of being the elements of its mecca.
S. J. LOYD, Esq., seconded the resolution, which was
carried after a tew observations from Mr. CAMPBELL,
who stated that the working classes were in favour of
the measure of Government.
The Right Rev. the Bishop of LANDAFF moved the fol-
lowing resolution:—
" That it is the duty of a wise and paternal Government
to promote religious and moral instruction, as the best
means of preventing crime, and securing a succession of
good and useful citizens, and that this meeting, believing
ignorance to be one of the prolific sources of vice, con-
siders it a solemn duty to support such public measures
as may tend to remedy the social evils which are the
result of moral and religious destitution."
J. LABOUCIIERE. Esq., seconded the resolution, which,
after a few words in its behalf from a gentleman named
SCARBOROUGH, was carried amid some dissent.
The Rev. Dr. RUSSELL proposed the following reso-
lution :

" That the experience of many years has now proved
the inadequacy of voluntary exertions for supplyii.g the
educational wants of the poor and industrial classes of
the community, and this meeting Yiews with satisfaction
the measures which have been recently announced by
her Majesty's Government, offering assistance to volun-
tary efforts without superseding them, and at the same
time respecting the religious scruples of those who de-
cline to acknowledge the Established Church as the
authorised teacher of the people."
If they prevented by opposition to this measure the

iutentiona of Government, their gaols would be multi
plied, and the number of criminals would be more than
doubled in a short time. He did not beli,ve that they
could restore the g,nd days of Alfred, when gold might be
left untouched; but still education could effect a great deal
in diminishing crime. He believed, if parties had not
come there with minds prejudiced, that the resolution which
be had the honour to propose would be adopted at once.
The Dissenters, as had been already stated, had received
Government assistance for thirteen years. The Govern-
ment measure would have the effect, by the examination cf
the schools which it proposed, of introducing into seminaries,
both Church and Dissenting, a more rigid attention to an
improved system of education. He denied that this mea-
sure would give more patronage to the Government. The
penal schools, one of the benefits proposed by this measure,
were of the greatest value; for could anything be more desir-
able than to have an asylum where information, not further
corruption, could be obtained? They should not sacrifice
the good of millions to their own petty prejudices and ani-
mosities.

Mr. J. POTVLES briefly seconded the resolution, which was
carried by a large majority.
J. Corrox, Esq., then proposed the following resolution :
" That the thanks of this meeting be given to the
Right Honourable the Lord Mayor for his kindness in
presiding on the present occasion, and that his Lordship
he requested to transmit to the President of the Privy
Council a copy of the resolutions that have been nc,w

adopted."
Mr. DAVIS seconded the resolution, which was carried
amid much applause.
The meeting then separated.

DESTRUCTION OF THE STEAMER

GRANAUILE BY FIRE.-AWFUL LOSS OF
LIFE.

(From the Dublin Freeman's Journal of Thursday.)
A most melancholy catastrophe, attended with consi•
derable loss of life, took place yesterday morning (Wed-
nesday), on board the Granauile steamer, bound from
Liverpool to Drogheda, when about thirty miles east of
Lambay. The accounts of this very painful and fatal
accident were various and confused, but from the best
inquiry that the nature of the case and the time would
permit, we were enabled to collect the following facts,
which may be relied on as correct as far as they go. The
ill-fated steamer left Liverpool about eight o'clock on
Tuesday night, lyaind fur Drogheda. She was com-
manded by Captain Bowden, who" is said to be an ex-
perienced seaman—was laden with flax and wheat, and
carried a considerable number of passengers—some say
250—others about 150, while others state the number
at 100 ; but on this point nothing satisfactory could be
ascertained, as it appears that a considerable portion of
the passengers were persons who had gone to Liver-
pool with the view of emigrating to America, but being
unable to find vessels in Liverpool, were returning
again. These parties being provided with free tickets,
their names did not appear on the ship's books. Many
of the passengers were cattle dealers, and from a con-
versation with one of them, it appears that about six
A.m., and after th, steamer had passed Holyhead, all on
board were roused by the cry of " Fire, fire,"—an awful
rush took place towards the deck, and the confusion be-
came so great, and the people so alarmed, that none of
them we met appear to have any knowledge of the state
offsets, or the condition of the ship. The only thing
they remembered was that the vessel was on fire—the
bunkers or coal-holds having ignited in the fiyst in-
stance. Every exertion was made to subdue the
destructive element, but the vessel being so crowded,
and the consternation so terrific, the efforts made to
save her were retarded, and proved unsuccessful. The
scene, as might be expected, is said to have been one of
the most harrowing nature. For a long time the captain
was most sanguine in his hopes of subduing the fire.
In this state, the fire raging below, but not apt); Bring
above, the vessel kept on her course till about seven
o'clock, when she was observed by the Betsy, fishing
smack of Ringsend, belonging to Mr. Bartlett, and Mr.
William Pullen, of the same place, the latter of whom,
the skipper, was on board the Bessy at the time, when
those of the passengers and crew who were on deck were
rescued from their awful condition. The crew of the
Bessy consisted of Mr. Pullen, John Parker, his mate,
George Upham, and a boy named William Symes, an
apprentice. Pullen's account of the transaction is very
meagre. He says that between six and seven o'clock, he
yaw a steamer in the distance, and thought she was in
distress from the way " she went about." After some
observations and converse with the crew, he bore down
on her, and on nearing her, found her on fire, the people
on board screaming. and many of them &tieing to her
sides. At the time Pullen came up, the flume had not
burst. out, but was still confined to the interior. Ile and
his crew took sixty-nine persons on hoard, by the aid of
boats—the smack standing off lest the fire might be
communicated.
The brave fellow, to use his own words—" was anxious
to save the people," and was to absorbed that he could
' give a very poor account of the transaction. His mate,
John Parker, whose exertions were equal to those of his
commander, appears to have been more observant, and
gives a more circumstantial and detailed account of the
calamity. He said—" that a little after sunrise they
saw a steamer about thirty miles east of Lambay, but
did not notice her much at first; they thought there was
something wrong, as she did not appear to be moving.
On closer observation they saw a steady dark cloud of
' smoke issue from her, but did not know, or even suspect,
that she was on fire at the time. They were steering
about south-east by east at the time, and in the direc-
tion of the steamer. When they came nearer, he called
the skipper, and remarked that be thought the steamer
was on lire. The skipper looked out, and said " She is
on fire—there's a boat astern—lie up to her." They
made ell way towards her, and came close to the boat.
There were, about eight or nine persons in it at the time,
whom they put on board the smack, Parker and his
companions then got into the boat, and went to render
the people on board the wreck all the assistance they
could. Their own small boat was on board, and George
Upham, of the Bessy, lowered it, and got into it by him-
self, and pulled for the steamer."
At this portion of the brave fellow's narrative he was
interrupted by George Upham, a fine athletic young
fellow, who said, " Yes, I took off a good many in that
boat, but the crew of the steamer didn't assist me, and
what I thought worse of them all was the loss of a poor
old woman whom I thought to get in four times, but I
missed her and she sunk.

Parker—" Yes, I saw you, brave lad, at that; you did
your best." Parker then went on to state that they went
four or five times to the steamer with the boats and took
off every living soul on and about the steamer. " The
last he took off (he said) was a poor woman and her
child." The woman was clinging to a rope for a long
time, and when rescued said that only for a knot that
was on it she would have been unable to hold for half
the time. As soon as they all got on board the smack
they inquired for the captain and heard he was over-
board. They theh went in search of the captain in the
steamer's drift, and, after some time, found him with a
life- buoy attached to his person. They took him below
and used all the means in their power to restore him,
but all to no use, though he showed signs of life when
first taken out of the water
The crew of the Bessy seeing all hope of saving the
vessel at an end, bore straight for Dublin (where she
arrived about six o'clock yesterday evening), and soon
lost sight of the steamer. None on hoard.. say her sink,
and the general impression was, that she still continued
to float when they lost sight of her.
When Pullen and his humane companions got the
people on board, they bore away fromvethe steamer. The
tire by this time had burst forth above
ewth great fury,
and seemed likely soon to effect the dsti
vessel. The heat emitted was almost
unernudeutiroanbl
andofthe
the bellowings of an unfortunate bull on deck, as the
Runes surrouuded him, are described as most terrific.
From all we could learn from the mate, who stated that
he checked the tickets, he did not think there were more
than thirty passen4ers lust, but ho could not be sure, as
there were a good many persons going back to Dreg-
\
heda free, and their names were not entered on the
books. The mate said there might ha about sixty lost,
and he feared some were smothered with the smoke
below. All who were on deck, or clinging to the vessel,
when the 13.e:sy reached were save,i, inc!uditif4 fory-tive
vx-iwagers and twenty-Vo;tr of the erew—in ell 69. One
man had his leg broken jumping into the boat with a

child in his arms—three women were injured, and a
child scalded. The injured persons were sent to Bag-
got-street Hospital on the arrival of the Belay.
`The above are the particular facts connected with
this sad affair ; in addition to

that she swamped and almost all perished. The crew of the steamer, with the exception of the captain' were all
Isaved ; and Parker states that the mate told him the
unfortunate gentleman could have saved himself, but
that he refused to abandon his vessel while there was
the most remote chance of saving her, and that he vowed
he would not stir unt:l passengers and crew were all
safe—a determination which cost him his life, for it
appears in the last extremity he took the life bu6y and
jumped overboard. A poor woman, one of three saved,
could tell no more of the occurrence than that she was
awoke out of bed, and in the general consternation
;which prevailed she leaped overbaard, and was picked
up in a boat by the brave lad Upham. When she re-
covered she found, to her inexpressible joy, her
husband safe on board the Bessy. The passengers
saved, with the exception of the persons sent to
hospital, and a few others who sought and
obtained refuge about the quays. took their departure
yesterday evening by the train for Drogheda, as did also the mate ot• the ill-starred steamer arid all the
crew. The mate took all the books which he had saved

NAVAL IN TELLIGENCE.
PORTSMOUTH, APRIL 16.—This morning, about half-past
live o'clock, a man-of-war steamer was seen making towards
Spithead from the eastward About seven o'clock she was
made ont to be a Portuguese, with the national flag flying.
She did not communicate with the port or the Recruit at
Spithead, but made towards Cowes, heaving-to there for a
shore, time, and then hoisted tOretopsaii, and made all speed
towards the westward. This looked very suspicious, and as
there have been directions received for the capture and de •
tention of two deserters of this description from, the Queen
of Portugal, the Fairy, royal yacht, bring the only steam-
vessel in port, was dispatcned after her, taking' some twe4ve
marines and an assistant-surgeon from the Victoria and Al-
bert. Commander Crispin took the command of the expedi-
tion, and now the Fairy showed the value of her matchless
speed, as, although the Portuguese had two hours' start,
with the distance from Portsmouth harbour to Cowes be-
sides in her favour, the Fairy came up with ber, and Com-
mander Crispin ascertained ber to be a hired vessel, fitted for
the service of the Queen of Portugal, and on her way to Lis-
b. n. The circumstance created no small degree of bustle and
gossip during the absence of the Fairy.
The Dee steam-transport, Master-Commander Driver, ar-
rived most opportunely to-day from Leland, just as the Re-
cruit, 12, Commander Slade, had given up the att,mpt toget
into harbour under canvass, and towed Ler in.
The Myrtle steam-vessel, Master-Commander Dalliston,
arrived to-day from Plymouth.
Sir Wm. Burnett, M.D., F.R.S., Director-General of the
Medical Department of the Navy, has been at this port dur-
ing the present week, making his official annual inspection
of the various medical departments.
In Harbour.—The St. Vincent, Victory, Excellent, Thetis,
Recruit, and Victoria and Albert; Fairy, Dee, and Myrtle
steam-vessels.

In Dock.—The Prince Regent, Leander, Ajax, Champion,

yoot.wrcu, APRIL IG.—The Hydra steam-vessel, Com-
mander Morrell, has had her rigging taken down, and will
be paid off here in the early part of next week.
The Blenheim, 72-guns, fitted with a se7ew propeller, was
taken out of dock to-day, and the Amphion steam-frigate
will be taken into dock to-merrow. The Blenheim is to be
taken into the basin, to be made ready for trial down the
river.

The speed attained by the Rifleman wooden steam-vessel
(luring her last trial, on an average of four times down and
four times up the river, at the measured mile in Long
Beach, was about seven knots per hour; and the speed of the
Sharpshooter iron steam-vessel, under precisely similar cir-
cumstances, on the following day (Tuesday last), was about
nine-and-a-half knots; both vessels being fitted with screw
propellers.
The Vixen steam-vessel was taken out of, dock on Wed-
nesday, and the Black Eagle taken into dock yesterday and
out again yesterday afternoon, the injury she sustained- by
touching a buoy in the harbour being of a very trifling
nature.

The Princess Alice steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander
Striven, has been taken into the basin. and her repairs are
expected to require about a month to complete them.
One of the galvanized iron blocks made by Lennox and Co.
was tested yesterday afternoon, with a hook of a stronger de-
scription than those tbrrnerly used. The chain passing through
the block broke on reaching a strain of five-and-a-half tons.
The block did not appear to be in the slightest degree affected
by this great strain, and the riveting of the hook to it re-
mained perfect. The wheel of the block, on being moved
round, circulated with as much freedom as it did before the
trial—a proof thaw the steam had no influence on the axle—
or any part of the block to cause a derangement. It is a
singular circumstance connected with these blocks, which
subsequently acquire such great power, that they, are, when
first made, as brittle as glass, and require the greatest care
when handled by the workmen. The value of the invention
will be considerable to the navy it they are found to resist
the action of salt water and the spray they aro liable to be
subjected to during sea voyages.
