" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an I Is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-

perlence, not only in the restoration and production of hair in ahund-

beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above tact,.-3, Swan-street, llorough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weal-, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
lrevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few dross on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the

is i n
yacht, the' Comte d'Eu. one of, if not the most beautiful,
models of French naval architecture, acknowledged to
be such by naval officers of both countries. She was
built by Mr. Normand. the most esteemed naval con
structor in France. The vessel had made two or three
experimental trips, and ha i not answered the expects-
Lions of her officers. About a fortnight ago, on visiting
the vessel, the captain, in answer to an inquiry as to the
cause of deficiency in speed, said he conceived it to be
iu the construction of her builers, which del not give out
the quantity of. steam expected. The decorations being
completed, she left this yesterday evening for Cherbourg,
when, at the other side of Barfleur, a volume of smoke
was seen issuing from the engine-room, and cries of
" Water! water!" were heard on every side. The heat
and smoke were so overpowering that it was with ditn-
culty one could breathe on deck. The captain,
however, although with only one arm, descended,
risk of his lite, endeavoured re
;witch the sufferers from their awful situation. Th.
end at the
hatches were taken off; and three-and-twenty bodies
were discovered in every possible state of agonising
suffering. Before ten o'clock, P. 51., nine had died ; and
the wind being adverse, the captain decided on returning
to Havre. It was ascertained that the boiler had burst
in its inferior part ; there was no explosion, no shock,
nothing but the torrents of vapour which escaped from
the machinery. The effect of this in a confined space,
by csaing instantaneous asphyxia, will account for the
;lumber of deaths in the first instance. Of the eleven
sent to the ho pital, one died this morning, and five are
now in the agonies of death, their breasts and limbs to-
tally
stripped of flesh from the boiling waster ; their
cries, indeed, were harrowitig.
(From the French papers of Wednesday.)
"A lamentable accident has occurred on board the
royal steam r the Comte d'Ea. This vessel quitted
Havre on Monday for Cherbourg, where her machinery
was to be inspected and tried by a special cernmissien.
ipart ofennte:)otfhtoieretneg,iilreiersrgoaovme.WaTv,waennitlythme
ebnoi !wit:
At about halt-past six the evening, when off Bat fleur,
grewavtice-
tims of this accident. Seven of them had died when ther
account left, an I thirteen were seriously i ,jured. Of the
seven who are dead, three were stokers, one an engineer,
anil three seamen. Of the thirteen wounded, four are
stokers, one is an engineer, one a man employed to rut
up the machinery, and the rest seamen. The Minister
of Marne has ord-red nn enquete, in which the makers
of the engine will be ex :miteei. We have extracted tne
above from the Illoniteur Parisien. The fellowing is a
letter written by a pars nt on board the Comte d'Eu.
Atter mentioning the bursting of the boiler, he says.—
"' There was immediately a cry of Secourez les
chauffeurs!' but how was any one to go down to the
engine-room ? The commander of the vessel, however,
listening only to his ceurage (although he has only one
arm) wept down at the risk of his life and directed the
removal of the victims, Tne deck was soon covered with
twenty, in a state impossible to describe ; they hardly
resembled human bolies. Before ten at night nine of
them had yielded up their last breath ; two hours be-
fore the commander had decided Ou returning to Havre.
At two in the morning we cast anchor in the road
stead, and orders were given immediately to put out
all the boats to convey the deal end wounded
to land. In our boat we had four dead bodies, and
having arrived rather before the other boats, we went
for assistance on board the Rotleur, and to the post of
the National Guard at the Mairie. Every one hastened
to prepare litters and other means for conveying the
wounded, eleven in number, and suffering horribly, to
the hospital.' _

" Thi; Journal du Havre of yesterday says---‘ There
was no explosion; no concussion was even felt on the
deck, where the accident was only manifested by the
torrents of steam that escaped from the engine-room.
The boiler burst at the lower part, and the water falling
upon the fires and out of the Rues 'Attie furnaces, spread
over the room, and inundatA it with steam and the still
burning remains of the fires. Of the wounded who were
conveyed to the hospital, one expired this morning, and,
of the other ten, five are in a state which leaves little
hope of recovery. Among the dead, some who appear
to have been attacked on the breast and face by streams
of boiling water or hot coals, have those parts burnt;
others, who were plunged in the boiling water, are
swelled and not recognisable. The legs of all the dead,
and also of the wounded, are excoriated and comple•ely
demi& dof the skin. This std t vent has fill.-d our town
with mourning. To-morrow, at eight o'cl.ck, a funeral
service, for the repose of the souls of the deal, will be
performed at the church of Notre Dame, and the b:.,dies
will then be- interrt.d.' "

THE NEW MODEL LODGING-ROUSES, ST. GILES'S.
—The committee for managing tee affairs of the new
model lodging houses, t St. Giies's have determined,
by the advice of soma e novelent individuals, to give all
poor lirsh agricultural labeurers and their families one
week's to aging free, up 4n their producing a ceititicate of
good character from their last employer. The commit-
tee have been induced to it-topt this step in consequence
of the numbers who are unable to obtain a shelter at the
various metropolitan unien:4.
COLLISION ON THE THAMES.—A collision, which
might have been attended wite fatal consequen-es, took
place on Wednesday evening, between the Pearl steamer,
one of the Diamond Company's boats, and the Star
steamer. The former of these two left Gravesend at
half-past seven o'clock, and was nearing the pier at
Rosherville, when she was met by the Star. The bul-
warks of the Ptnrl, the cooking-house, and paddle-box
were injured, and the passengers thrown into a state of
great consternation, some of them in their attempt to
escape the threatened danger being thrown down and
trampled upon. It does not appear, as yet, to whom
the blame of this collision and the danger produced by
it are to be attributed. In the mean time the publie
have been jeopardized, and a recurrence of the results of
the two accidents which have very recently taken place at
Rosherville pier, by which taao persons have lost limbs,
incurred. It is quite time that those in authority should
xert their power to prevent such catastrophes. If they
have not adequate powers, their powers should be in-
crease t, so that at all events passengers, who have no
control over the boats, should be protected.
MELANCHOLY Suicins.—Last evening Mr. Mills
held un inquest at 20, Paddington-green, the residence
of Mr. li. wse, a gentlemen of independent fortune, upon
Hannah limeades, aged tweney-two, a spinst, r, late cook
in the family. Elizabeth Griffiths, the housemaid, stated
that her mistress, suspecting the deceased was enciente,
sent for her mother on Monday, to whom, as she had
done on several previous occasions, she denied that
she was so, and attributed her bulky appearance to
dropsy. While with her mother she cried bitterly,
and tore her hair and cap. During the evening she
was melancholy, and upon going to bed and several
times in the night vomited. Witness left her in bed, ap-
parently better, between five and six o'clock on Tuesday
morning, and upon visiting her a little before seven
found her dead. Mr. Kay, surgeon, Cambridge-ter-
race, stated that he was called upon to attend deceased at
seven o'clock on Tuesday murning. She was then dead,
but as the body was warm, and as he found that she
was far advanced in pregnancy, he deemed it his duty
to remove the child by the Casa,rian operation, which he
effected with the greatest facility. The child, which
was of eight months' gestation, was also dead. Upon a
post mortem examination he detected in deceased's sto-
mach a sufficient quantity of arsenic to cause death.
How she got the arsenic, or when she took it, no one
could tell. Deceased's mother, a very respectablek
ewo-
man, who was deeply aff,- cted, deposed that she
noting of her daughter's pregnancy until Monday.

SOUTHAMPTON DOCK COMPANY.—Yesterday, the
half-yearly meeting of the above company was held at
the offices, Bishopsgate-street Within, Colonel Barlow
in the chair. The report of the directors stated that
there had been an increase in the business of the com-
pany since the opening of the docks, the total receipts
of the half year ending the 30th of June, 1846, heviug
been 4,800/. 18=. while those to the 30th of June,
1847, were 7,626!. I Is. I Id. This warranted the di-
rectors in declaring a dividend for the half yaar of one
per cent. Contracts had been entered into for the
construction of a second dry dock. and for the erection
in-
eluding
several additional buildings. The total receipts,
36,920!.. borrowed on debentures, amounted to
58.661!. 14a. 7d., and the expenditure to 44,186!. 10s.
2d. The report haviri been adopted, and a dividend
of one per cent. declared, Mr. Melville brought forward
a motion for paying the directors for their services, and
for presenting the chairman with a, piece of plate of the
value of 2001., but at the request of the chairman and

Mary Collins, aged 42 years, who diet from the efreets
of drieking a large quantity of water while heated, under
the tellowing very melancholy encumstances. It ap-

the deceased, wt .o resided with her husband, at No. 16,
Parliament-street, Cambridge-road, had be en sari epirg

a large cuff-e cup into the yard and tined it with cold
water from the waterbutt. She drank iitY the contents,
and repeated it fivetirnes. She had scarcely emptied the
last cupful', when she fell to the ground in a state of
insensibility. - She was removed to her bedroom, where
.she remained in the same condition until the following
morning, when she expired. Mr. Cooper, a surgeon,
said the deceased had died from the rupture of a blood-
vessel in the brain from over-excitement, and that her
death had been accelerated by an excessive draught of
cold wirer, while in a state of heat. The jury returned a
verdict in accordance with the medical testimony.
THE ANTIQUE.--There is in the shop of Mr.
Sharpe, watchmaker, High-street, of this town, a curious
old cl.,ek, which, tradition says, belonged to the Annan-
dale family, and long divided time in the ancient halls
of Loeb% owl. The curious in mechanical c intrivanee
and the antiquity of invi scions will filid.this relic well
worthy of inspection. It is simply a piece of clock-
work, supported by four brass pillars, which are sur-
mounted by a dome of bell-metal, upon which the hours
are snuck by a hammer, somewhat after the manner of
the modern clock. The twelve hours are ma: ked upon
a circular index of brass, and affixed to a plate ot the
stun, meta!, upon which the maker's name, Leadenhall,
and the date 1,07, are legibly inscribed. The unitive
power is weights, cords, and pul'eye, the movement con-
trolled by a pendulum and escapement, and the hours
only are indicated by a single pointer. What is must
worthy of remark in regard to this manifestly antique
piece of mechanism is, that assuming the date 1507 upon
the dial to be that of its • actual manufacture, it fur-
nishes very strange testimony to the antiquity of pen.
dulum clocks, the invention of which has always been
accorded to the seventeenth, cclatury. and the honour
of the discovery ascribed to Galileo ; and it is asserted
by Beckman, in his history of inventions, that the oldest
public clock in England is t' at of liampten Court, date
Fifteen hundred and something, driven originally by
weights, but not regulated by a pendulum. Leaving
this to antiquarian arras; ement, it were interesting to
speculate upon the preservation which maintained this
r lie in a family so often sub;ected to foray and feud,
reel against the destroying fury of the incendiary fire,
kited d with such savage glee by Maxwell of Nithsdale
on the towers of Leckwutid, %hell; in the abeence of
her lord, he swore to give ee L Ann lie ht to dress
her sar-enet hood," and fee which such signal ven-
geance was t ken upen Dryte Sands. At t resent the
clink is Truett out of order ; but, resuscitat, d u .der the
