WWILLIAMS'S NEWLY-INVENTED
• ENGLISH CATAMARAN RAFT, or LIFE-BOAT.
WM. WILLIAMS, formerly a seaman in her 'Majesty's Royal
Navy during the late war, and for many years since in the Merchant
Service, having been cast away, and in a water-logged ship for many
days, has devoted much of his time to the invention of a boat or
raft, for the more effectual preservation of human life in eases of ship-
wreck, and having paid great attention' to the life-boats at present in
use in this and other 'countries, has invented one which ;will more
effectually answer the purpose for which it is ;intended, not being
liable to capsize or fill with water, a great fault with many of the
boats now in use, which is very often attended with serious
consequences, owing to the delay which unavoidably occurs
through the boats being capsized, and the men thereby unfit to
render thu assistance necessary for the preservation of the sufferers
on board the vessel they are endeavouring to rescue from de-
struction—being themselves in want of assistance, thereby occasion-
ing a loss of much valuable time, and in all probability the lives of
the unfortunate beings they are endeavouring to rescue from an
untimely fate. The Life-Boat, or English Catamaran, invented by
W. Williams, being composed of sheet iron, and of very light con-
struction is capable of laying within four points of the wisd and
withstanding all weathers, and able to beat to windward in the
heaviest gale that cm possibly occur (when no other boat now in
use can venture Out,) and cannot by any accident capsize either by
stress of weather or in a heavy surf, and will go through the water
with double the speed of any other Life-Boat now in use, in all
weathers ; with only four men to manage her, and two lug sails,
and will be capable of remaining longer out, and would be the
means (under Divine Providence) of saving more lives than any
other kind of boat yet invented ; and can be made to save at each
trip a ship's company, consisting of 100 souls without the least risk,
as may be seen by the model, and more fully explained by the In-
ventor, and can take all the crew and eassengers from the wreck at
from GO to 100 yards distance with the greatest facility, and without
the least danger, not having occasion to go alongside should the
vessel be on the rocks or any dangerous situation where other boats
dare not approach. This Lite-Boat of W. Williams's invention can
be made to take to pieces or put together by the carpenter of any
vessel in thirty minutes, and stowed away at hand, and most part of
her can be made available for the ship's use.
All vessels going abroad with passengers or engaged in the Green-
land Fishery, ought to he provided with a boat of the above descrip-
tion for the preservation of life in case of accident, as itwill answer as
well on the ice as on the water, and all dangerous parts of our own
coast as well as that of other countries, ought to be provided with
one of these boats. They can be made to any dimensions, according
to the number of passengers and crow, or the service for which they
are intended ; and are particularly well adapted for the service of
landing troops in heavy surfs or shallow water, drawing lees than
any of the flat-bottomed boats now in use.
The only object the Inventor has in view, is the benefit of his
fellow-creatures, and lie requires no compensation for his loss of time
or trouble, but that a subscription might be raised far the purpose of
building' a "working" model under his inspection, it being out of
the power of the Inventor, for want of the necesssry funds, to accom-
plish so desirable an object. The Inventor, therefore, most respect-
fully solicits the aid and patronage of all those who feel interested in
the preservation of the lives of their fellow-creatures, and that the
funds so raised may be placed in the hands of some responsible person
to be applied for the express pnrpose• above specified ; and when
finished, and fit for trial, W. Williams will be prepared at once to
test his invention by putting off to sea in any gale or weather, either
by night or day, so as fully to establish the proof of her superiority
over all the other life-boats now in use.
N.B. Any person desirous of inspecting the Inventor's Model, will
be readily waited on by him, either in town or country.

"Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the mere

to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and fatal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortalPy."—Wakefield

remove the most distressing pain in that part produced by or at-
tended with fetidness ; and is acknowledged by the Faculty as the
only specific known to cure that disease of the head called Porigo

GREENITICII Pmts.—The excavated reservoir, for
supplying Greenwich llovital and the dock-yard at Dept-
ford with water in case of fire, is now completed ; it is con-
structed on one of the finest lawns in the path, and occupies
about half an acre of ground. It has an unsightly appear-
ance, but when the object for which it is intended is con-
sidered, all objection ought to cease. The public have some
reason to complain of the many inclosures that have, fresh
time to time, been made during the last twenty years. In
the present case, however, they are likely to he benefitted,
as plans are now in progress, to be laid before her Majesty,
for pulling down the old farm-house and other buildings
attached thereto, and throwing the whole area, about two
acres and a half, into the Park ; this will not Only be a most
desirable improvement, but prevent a repetition of the many
complaints from the respectable part of the inhabitan's of
Blackheath, of the irregularity in opening the gates in the
upper part of the park. Other alterations are talked of,
which will place the management of the park on a more. re-
spectable footing.

ELECTION OF THE MARQUIS OF
CHANDOS.
BUCKINGHAM WEDNESDAT.—The representation of this
borough, vacated by Sir Thomas Fremantle, was to-day
arranged by the return of the Marquis of Chandos, the only
eon of the Duke of Buckingham. The election took place in
the Town-hall.

The MAYOR having opened the proceedings,
The Rev. W. T. EYRE came forward to propose the Noble
Marquis, and the nomination was seconded by Mr. W. H.
FRENCH.

'I here being no other candidate to propose,
The MAYOR declared the Noble Marquis duly elected.
The Marquis of CHANDOS then addressed the assembly
amidst much applause. In the course of his remarks the
Noble Lord said—with respect to the important question
which now occupies the general attention—l need scarcely
say I allude to the corn-laws and the present free-trade
movement—l do not hesitate to avow that lam de-
cidedly opposed to it.—(Loud cheers.) I am opposed to an
alteration in the existing corn-laws for two reasons; first,
because I am convinced a repeal of those laws will have an
injurious effect'upon every class of the community—upon the
manufacturer, upo❑ the agriculturist, and upon the labourer
—(Hear, hear, aid cheers. )—and, secondly, I object to any
alteration in those laws, because I think, even HI agreed in
the principle of the measure, I ought to oppose it on the
ground that it is one of far too great importance to be sub-
mitted to an expiring Parliament—(Cheers)—and because I
think the sense of the country ought to be taken upon a
question in which so many mighty interests are involved.
After a vote of thanks to the Mayor, for his conduct in the
chair, the proceedings of the election terminated.

CORN-LAW MEETING AT DOR-
CHESTER.
On Tuesday, at twelve o'clock, a large meeting was held
in the Town-hall of Dorcheiter in compliance with a requi-
sition which had been previously placarded about the town.
Charles Pitcher, Esq., the new Sheriff presided; and forth-
with several gentlemen stood forth upon the platform with
words of loud opposition to the proposed Ministerial mea-
sures. As upon all similar occasions, the gist of the different
orations were contained in the different "resolutions," the
speakers being mere amplifications of those documents. A
Mr. Farquharson was the proposer. and a Mr. Pope the
seconder, of the first of these resolutions, which was to the
following effect ;—" That this meeting views with the utmost
alarm the measures now under the consideration of Puha-
, Mont for the great reduction of the duties payable on the ad
mission of foreign manufactures, and the establishment, at no
distant period, of the free importation of foreign corn."
Another of a similar character having been read
by the Bev. H. F. Yeatman, the reverend speaker was
interrupted by the struggles for places incident upon the
arrival of fresh spectators every minute. .The hall at length
being filled beyond endurance, and the mob outside en-
deavouring by every muscular effort to effect an entrance,
the meeting was adjourned to a neighbouring field. The dis-
cussion (if so it could be designated) was then resumed,
and a proposal carried for petitions to Parliament against any
alteration of the corn-laws; the petitions to he presented in
the two Houses by Lord Digby and Mr. Barikes.
After the usual formalities,
The Thou SHERIFF then announced that the election in
the room of Lord Ashley and Mr. Sturt would take place on
Thursday, Feb. 19.
The large assembly then quietly dis,

ersed

•WESTMINSTER ELECTION.
➢IEETING OF THE WESTMINSTER REFORM

SOCIETY.

Last night, at eight o'clock, a most numerous meeting
of the members of the Westminster Reform Society, was
held at Stannard's Hotel, Charles-street, Covent-garden, for
the purpose of taking into consideration what measures
should be adopted in consequence of the resignation of the
Hon. Captain Rous, upon his acceptance of the office of one
of the Lo.ds of the Admiralty.
Tnorr being appointed to the chair, observed that the
first question for the consideration of the meeting was whether
the Society was willing to go to an election, and if they were
determined upon taking that course, to come to a resolution
who should be the candidate they would support. They had
heard from General Sir De Lacy Evans that he was willing
to become their representative, and to contest the election.—
(Hear.) He had served them faithfully on former occasions.
—(Hear.) The meeting must act with promptitude and
determination, as it was most probable that a very few days
would elapse before the day of nomination would be ap-
pointed.—(Hear.)
Mr. MURRAY observed that the electors of Westminster
ought to be represented by a Member •f decided Liberal
opinions. They ought not to let a Conservative come in.
He believed he expressed the opinion of 'Westminster, that
it would be an injury to the Liberal cause if they returned
again the Honourable Captain Rous.—(Hear.)
Mr. CIIILDS said that they should look to the broad
principles .on which the Society was founded.—(Hear, hear.)
They ought not to be guided by their feelings, but to look
at principles.—(Hear, hear.) He was one of the oldest elec •
tors, and always gave his vote for, and used his utmost ex-
ertions to secure the return of an independent candidate.—
(Hear, hear.) He had no hesitation in giving his opinion in
favour of General Evans.—(Applause.)
Several members having addressed the chair,
Mr. STOCKEN moved a resolution that General Sir de
Lacy Evans be proposed as a candidate to oppose the Hon.
Captain Rous at the ensuing election for the representation
of Westir mister.
Mr. Crimps seconded the resolution.

Mr. LEWIS moved an amendment, which was seconded by
Mr. JACKSON, that it is not advisable on this occasion to con-
test the election with the Hon. Captain Roue.
After a very prolonged discussion,
The CHAIRMAN put the question, when the amendment was
lost by eight. On the resolution being put only three hands
were raised against it (followed by loud applause). The
Chairman then requested that the gallant General should be

informed of the decision of the meeting.
General EVANS, upon entering the room, was received with
cheers. He observed that he returned his grateful thanks for
the honour he had received by their having resolved to sup-
port his election as the representative of the liberal con-
stituency of Westminster.—(Hear, hear.) But this was not.
the first time that he had had occasion todo so. He did not
expect that so shortly after he had issued his address an op-
portunity would have occured when he should have been
called upon to present himself to their netice, and he could
only say that he there reiterated the opinions which were
contained in that address. He was sorry that they should
be put to the inconvenience of being obliged to use their ex-
ertions on his behalf. He intended to have offered himself at
the general election, when he would have been able to enter
the contest upon equal terms with his opponent, who, on the
present occasion, had got the start of him in the field. He,
however, with the support of the Liberal electors of West-
minster, had no doubt of his success. He had no desire to go
into the House of Commons, but if it was their wish that he
should be their representative, he would readily stand the
contest.—(Hear, hear.) lie did not wish to press hitnselt
upon their adoption. He had had the honour to serve them
consistently, and if returned he would pursue the same un-
deviating course. He was now ready to give an answer to
any questions that might be put to him. .
CHAIRmaN—If any one has a question to put to the gal-
lant General, he trusted that it would be proposed; and he
hoped that those who held up their hands for the amendment
would assist to their utmost in promoting the return of
General Evans.—(Hear.)
Mr. POUNCET observed that he held up his hand for the
amendment, but did not oppose the resolution.—(Hear.) He
had always voted for General Evans, and should do so at the
ensuing election, feeling that the Liberal interest ought net
to be divided.—(Applause.) He hoped that the electors
would come forward, and he had no doubt but that the gal-
lant General would be returned triumphantly.—(Applause.)
Mr. LEWIS asked General Evans whether, in the event of
his becoming the representative of Westminster, he would
vote for the total and immediate repeal of the corn-laws, in
opposition to the delayed measure of her Majesty's Govern-
ment ?—( Hear.)
General EvAxs said that his opinions were well known
always to have been in favour of the total and immediate
repeal of the corn-laws. He, however, begged to observe that
in the event of the great body of the Whig party and the
League deciding that it would be more expedient not to op-
pose the propositions of Sir Robert Peel, he hoped that they
would forgive him if he supported that object.
A MEmunn.—Suppose the League oppose the measure,
would you support total and immediate repeal?
General EVANS—Go with the League by all means.—
(Applause.) The gallant General concluded by remarking
that he would give his vote, as he always had done, in favour
of liberal measures.—(Hear, hear.)
The thanks of the meeting having been voted to the Chair-
man, he remarked that he was pleased to observe there was
suet :a feeling manifested to support a Liberal candidate.—
(Applause.) Let them all put their shoulders to the wheel,
and do their utmost to carry this election, and he had no
doubt but that they would have a most triumphant victory
for the Liberal cause.
The meeting broke up at eleven o'olock.

TOTAL AND IMMEDIATE REPEAL.---A public meeting
was held at Doncaster on Wednesday evening, convened by
the mayor, In accordance with a requisition, to consider the
propriety of petitioning Parliament for the total and im-
mediate repeal of all restrictions upon the trade and commerce of
the country. The meeting was held in the Town_hall, and was at-
tended by several hundreds of persons from the town and neigh-
bourhood, amongst whom were several tenant farmers from the
villages around. The chair was taken by Mr. Councillor Milner, in
the absence of the mayor, who was prevented from attending. The
first resolution was proposed by Mr. Ilastie, " that the meting
perceived with much satisfaction, that the national struggle fer
industrial freedom was rapidly drawing to a close, and that the
cause of truth would ere long be crowned with complete suc-
cess," &c. The other resolutions were moved and seconded
by Mr. Merratt, solicitor ; Mr. Illagden, of Warmsworth, a
tenant farmer ; Mr. Dent Dale, of lialby, also a tenant farmer, and
a warm advocate of the abolition of the cern-laws; Mr. Richard
Dale ; Mr. Councillor Dunn; William Chadwick, Esq., of Arkley, a
large landed proprietor and well-known anti-monopolist ; Mr. Joseph
Clark, tanner, who expressed his conviction that no injury would
accrue either to tanners or carriers by the Premier's proposed reduc-
tions ha that branch of trade ; and by other gentlemen of the town.
A series of resolutions having been passed, a petition, embodying the
sentiments expressed in them, was agreed to, praying for an imme-
diate, total, and unconditional repeal of all laws that interfere with
the rights of labour, the abundant supply of food, and the general
Prosperity of the nation. The speeches delivered were warm and
energetic, and congratulatory on the fact that the dawnfall of mono •
poly was now nigh at hand ; and it was agreed that the petition
should be signed and sent off on Wednesday, for presentation to the
House of Commons by Lord Morpeth on Thursday night.
PRICE OF GoLD...--The premium on gold at Paris
is 12 per mille, which, at the English Mint price of
3/. 17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an ex-
change of 25 45, and the exchange at Paris on London
at short being 25 621, it follows that gold is 0.68 per cent.
dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Ham-
burgh the price of gold is 433 f per mark, which, at the
English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard
gold, gives an exchange of 13 9i ; and the exchange at
llamburgh on London at short being 13 14, it follows
that gold is 0.91 per cent. dearer in London than in

Hamliurgh.
TAKE OF HERRINGS.—We are happy to state that the
greatest take of herrings within the memory of the oldest in-
habitants of this island, has occurred in our bay (llugort)
during the last three weeks. We may safely state that up-
wards of 300,000 herrings were caught, and sold at lair
prices, averaging from Is. 3d. to 3s. per hundred. The fish
were of more than ordinary size.-4chill
SPANISH WHEAT.—There has just been delivered at
this port a cargo of extremely fine wheat from Cadiz (being the first
that we remember direct from Spain into this vast emporium of
con). It weighed 641bs. to the bushel, and was very dry. The
Jane Pope, of Bridport, Captain Symonds, brought the cargo for
Messrs. Grutt, Helinsing, and Cp., and the captain reports that
twenty-three other cargoes were loading at Cadiz Nsten he left,—
Hulapaper.
