THE ROYAL ORTHOPEDIC

HOSPITAL.
The annual general meeting of the friends and sup-
porters of the Royal Orthopcedic Hospital was held
on Saturday, in the Board-room of the Institution,
Bloomsbury-square ; the Right Hon. Lord A.binger in
the chair.

From the annual report, it appeared that the charity
was established for the cure of club-foot Rad other eon-
tractions, by a new and very successful made of treat-
ment, based upon surgical and scientific principles. The
discovery of dividing the tendons, by which extreme
adult cases of contraction and deformity can be cured in
a few weeks or months, and those of children in a much
shorter time, obviating the slow and uncertain progress
of cure under the mechanical plan of treatment, has
elicited the approbation of many distinguished members
of the medical profession, and has been hailed by the
public with feelings of no ordinary satisfaction. The
receipts for the past twelve. months for dona-
tions and subscriptions wade a total fund of,
1,9071. 10s. lid. The expenditure amounted to
1,5411. 65., leaving in the hands of the treasurer a
balance of 3661. 10s. id. The number of patients during
the last year discharged cued, had been forty-eight;
relieved, eighteen; remaining in the hospital at the pre-
sent time, thirty. The number placed on in-patients'
rotation list during the year had beets 35 ; or, the
rotation list for admission, 67. The number of out-
patients treated during the year bad been 884, making a
grand total of patients of 969. Since tlie opening of
the charity, the total number of patients admitted had
been not fewer than 4,000. Tte report having been
adopted, the noble chairmen made a very powerful ap-
peal in behalf of the cbelity. His Lordship said, had it
not been for the Pr'esent institution, a vast number of
persons, who hre now perfectly cured, would have had
to work their way through the world, a burden to them-
selves and families. He hoped to see the charity placed
on such a footing as not to be obliged to turn patients
away for the want of funds. The committee and other
officers for the ensuing year having been chosen, a vote
of thanks was passed to his Lordship for presiding, and
the meeting separated.

AN AFFECTING GOOD BY
A gentleman, not many days remote,
Was heard in conversation with his coat.
- "My faithful friend," said he,' "it makes me grieve
To thiukJhat I'm constrain'd to take my leave.
You've been a worthy garment in your time,
• Bat now, alas! I think you've seen your prbne.
And, therefore, dearest coat! I think it best •
To fold you up and pop you in thy chest.
Good bye, my worthy coat ! good bye! good bye!"
(And here he wip'd a tear-drop from his eye).
" Well'''. said the garment. "if it must be So,
It can't be help'd ; but I regret to go.
Of course you'll haste to MOSES for another;
At MOSES' mart I've many a worthy brother.
You'll get a coat of MOSE- and his SON
• To serve you just as well as I have done.
I'm only one from such a boundless stock ;
They've charming coats in thousands—dress and frock.
Cheer up, good master i pray cheer up," said he,
" You'll get another Goat as good as me."

DIRECT LONDON AND MANCHESTER.
_ .

The hearing of the petition from the owners, lessees, and occupiers
of land along the line, against this Bill, which was commenced on
Friday last, was resumed.

Mr. Yarn (Parliamentary agent for the petitioners) stated that
the petition alleged that, in the plans, the radius of the curve of the
6th furlong was not marked.

Mr. Hunter, engineer, examined—Had inspected the plans de-
posited both at the Private Bill-office and with the clerks of the
peace for the respective counties through which the line proposed to
pass. The radius of the curve in question (which was an inch under
a mile) was not marked in those places.
The Committee found that the standing orders had been complied
with.

The next allegation was, that the piece of ground adjoining No.
319, and coming through the parish of St. Mary, Islington, was not
marked on the plan deposited with the clerk of the peace for the
county of Middlesex.

Mr. W. E. Crew (Clerk of the Peace for the county of Middlesex),
and Mr. Harris, were examined in support of the allegation.
Mr. Ainslie proved that notice was served on Mr. Merrifield, the
owner of the ground in question, which was partly a gravel walk and
garden.

The Committee found that this allegation was sustained, though
the ground alluded to was marked correctly In the book of reference,
and the plan deposited in the Private Bill-office.
In No. 9, an allegation to the same effect was sustained.
Several similar allegations were abandoned.

The petition alleged that in 31 A, in the plan deposited in the Pri-
vate: Bill-office, there was an error, the ground being improperly
marked.

Mr. Hunter was examined for, and Mr. Shea against, the alle-
gation.

The Committee fount that in this case the standing orders had
not been complied with.
The next allegation was, that a similar error had been committed
in 74 A in the parish of Chipping-Barnet, which was not sustained.
The next allegation was, that in the plan deposited at the Private
Bill-office no radius of curve on the 26th mile and third furlong was
marked. This and a similar allegation were not sustained.

The next allegation was, that in No. 18, in the parish of Lucan, in
the county of Bedford, there was an inaccuracy in the plan deposited
in the Private Bill-office.

The Committee found that in this case the standing orders had no
been complied with.

There was a similar allegation with respect to No. 93 in the plan,
the property not being marked with a dotted line. This allegation
was not sustained.

It was also alleged that No. 3 A in the plan deposited in the Pri-
vate Bill-office was not inserted in the book of reference, which the
Committee found to be sustained.

Sub-Committee No. 4.
This Committee met to-day, at 'twelve o'clock, in tne Room No.

CURRENIS OF THE OCEAN.

Several pieces of paper have of late years been transmitter.
to Lloyd's, wnich have been picked up in various parts of th,
world inclosed in bottles, relating, it is asserted, to certai,
vessels, which, up.n enquiry, cannot be traced to h:tve
existence, whilst i❑ other instances, the writers of they,
documents go further than a mere desire to ascertain tin-
current (already known in many cases) of the ocean, an,
profess to give particulars of expectant shipwreck of a vessel,
of which there ale man, of the same name in existence,
whicliwould, therefore, by publication, produce much paii.fe
anxiety. The peculiar particulars which a seafaring ma!
would, i: of any education, give, are in these case:
entirely omittid, and therefore immediately exp,
tile ignorance and weakness of the writer. When then•
documents have been picked up on the French coast, tto
authorities are put to incredible trouble from their anxiet'
to further the object of the writers, and the maritime ititeresi
generally, an in many cases it is clear is produced
persons ignorant of the subject upon which they profess St
much anxiety.

On the motion for the third reading of this Bill,
Lord G. BEN UN CK said that at the close of the few ob-

on this Bill, he should feel it his duty to move that it be read a
third time this day three months, This Bill was neither more
nor less than an„intention to overturn the whole of our ci.lonial
system, and to take from the colonists the last slice of pro-
tection which they possessed. Hardly six weeks had passed
since the Free-traoo Bill had received the sanction of the
Legislature, and they bad already evidence of its fruits.
Already had the niillowners of Oldham, Stockport, A-hton-

that they should reduce their woges 5 per cent. Such was
also the case with respect to Glasgow ; and he would read an
extract from the trade circular of Messrs. Gibson and Ord, of
Manchester, which showed that the business in which they
were engaged was never at so low a depression, or in.t
such a state of gloom at this season of the year as

PROFESSOR FABER'S SPEAZING

AUTOMATON, OR EUPHONIA.
This is the most extraordinary production of ingeni.litY
and perseverance that it has ever been our good fortune t 9
observe. It is, without any cheat or fraud, in reality
speaking machine, and an object of the highest wonder. We
are told that the inventor, Mr. Joseph Faber, is sixty years
of age ; be received his education at the Royal Polytechnic
Institution in Vienna ; he is a Professor of Mathematics, and
was for many years Premier Calculator and Land Surveyor
to the Emperor of Austria. He, has devoted more than
twenty-five years to the discovery and construction of a me.
chanical combination which should possess all the powers of
articulation. After obtaining the power of pronouncing all
the other vowels by mechanical contrivance, he spent seven
years in finding means of ailificially pronouncing the letter
E. Professor Faber was the ti?st man who analysed " Caou-
chouc," or India rubber; from this material he has formed
the various organs of articulation, 30 as exactly to resemble
those appertaining to humanity, and by means of keys, and
bellows (for lungs); he has at last compered every obstacle,
and has: succeeded in constructing an instrument which will
plainly and distinctly speak all languages sing, whisper,
laugh, &c. This wonderful result is now lohieved for the
first time, although it has often been before attkinpted with-
out success, and has often, during the last feN,Y centuries,
been pronounced an impossibility by savans of all ,lountnes.
We should recommend those of our reade.i's who
are not so deficient of reasonable curiosity as to neglect a
visit to this wonderful exhibition, to glance at Mr. aber's
book of Memoranda, inscribed by many of the most &Om-
guished persons of the day. We recommend the book as
highly amusing. Some of the inscriptions are remarkably
characteristic. The greatest captain of the age writes:—"A.
wonderful piece of mechanism.—Wellington." The Lord.
Chief Baron bears his testimony to its excellence in the
pithy sentence :—" The machine speaks for itself—verbuni.
sat." Mr. J. S. Buckingham, in a long memorandum, re-
quests the visitor, whose notions of perfect articulation may
not be quite realised by the performance of the automaton.
" to remember that it is a human work, and that man can-
not equal the work of his Creator." Some half-dozen deep
thinking inscribers content themselves with expressing their
" entire agreement " with that original and profound ob-
servation of Mr. J. S. Buckingham's. Perhaps, however, the
testimony of such men as Dr. Ryan, Professor Bachhoffner,
Mr. Sievier, Mr. Longbottom, and the learned editor of the
TVestminster Reriew, will go as far with the public as the pious
exhortation of Mr. 8., and the satirist, who " fully agree.,"
with him.

COPY HOLDS.

The following is a copy of the fifth report of the Copy.
hold Commi,sioners to her Majesty's Principal Secretary o
State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Act 4 an
5 Victcria, c. 35, s. 3 :

"Copyhold Commission, Aug. 3.
" Sir,—We have the honour of presenting to you our fifth
report. The number of enfrauchisements have again consi-
derably increased.
" For the details of the business done we beg to refer you
to the list which is appended.
" Some of the transactions included in it are large and im-
portant.
" Enfranchisements in manors held by ecclesiastics are
steadily increasing. and in those manors there is a fair pros..
pect of copyhold tenures being ultimately extinguished
voluntarily.
"In manors held by laymen the progress is slower. Ter-
mini of railroads, aid the increasing population of the towns,
lead to building speculations. Builders find that they can
atheariesedl)mi
sell with a copyhold title, and the nmber of enfran-
eats from those causes will almost necessarily increase
" We believe, however, that it would be a public benefit if
crs'ly. u
the Legislature were to sanction a compulsory extinction of
some of the copyhold incidents, more especially of heriots.

"Your faithful and obelient servants,

CURRENTS OF THE OCEAN.

Several pieces of paper have of late years been transmitted
to Lloyd's, which have been picked up in various parts of the
world inclosed in bottles, relating, it is asserted, to certain
vessels, which, upon enquiry, cannot be traced to have any
existence, whilst in o:her instances, the writers of these
documents go further than a mere desire to ascertain the
current (already known in many cases) of the ocean, and
profess to give particulars of expectant shipwreck of a vessel,
of which there are Many of the same name in existence, ant:
which would, therefore, by publication, produce much painfai
anxiety. The peculiar particulars which a seafaring may;
would, if of any education, give, are in these cases
entirely omitted, and therefore immediately expose
the ignorance and weakness of the writer. When these
documents have been picked up on the French coast, th(
authorities are put to incredible trouble from their anxiet
to further the object of the writers, and the maritime interest
generally, and in many cares it is clear is produced 1)3
persons ignorant of the subject upon which they profess so
much anxiety.
