BORNEO.—The steamer, which left Singapore in May,
brought intelligence of the treacherous murder of the Raja
Muds Hassim, and the noble-minded Panjeran Budrudeen,
the warm friends of Mr. Brooke and the English, at the ex-
press command of the Sultan of Borneo Proper. Mr. Brocike
forwarded a statement of these atrocities to Colonel Butter-
worth, C. 8., the Governor of the Singapore States, with a
request for immediate assistance, which was promptly
granted, and the Honourable Company's steamer Phlegethon,
under the command of Captain Ross, left Singapore, and
arrived at the British settlement of Sarawak on the 28th of
April. Mr. Brooke having embarked on beard the steamer,
she sailed and visited six large rivers along the north-west
coast, up some of which she penetrated for sixty miles, find-
ing them broad and deep. This demonstration had the most
beneficial effect all along the coast, and if followed up by
further protection from the British Government to our
thriving settlement at Sarawak, will soon put an end to the
horrid piracy too frequent in these waters. At all the places
they viMted, the chiefs, in their large war boatc, appeared to
pay their respects to Mr. Brooke.

OPENING OF THE NEW CUT RAGGED SCHOOL.—
Last evening a public meeting, for the purpose of opening
the ragged school established for the New Cut district, was
held in the school-room, Grove-lane, nearly facing the Vic-
toria Theatre. The Honourable Arthur Kinnaird was called
upon to preside. The Honourable Chairman, in opening the
proceedings, said that it gave him great pleasure to take the
chair upon PO interesting an occasion. The work they were
engaged in was one of the greatest importance, inasmuch as
it mauls provision for the wants of that hitherto neglected and
be might say almost despised class—the children of the
poorest of the poor in the district.—(Bear.) Thellonour-
able Gentleman proceeded at considerable length to urge
upon the attention of the meeting the necessity for establish-
ing and supporting the school. The premises, which have
now undergone considerable repairs and alterations, were re-
cently occupied as a penny theatre. Mr. Austin said that
for the present they intended to commence with opening the
school on a Sunday evening for the instruction of youths.
As soon as they had got more help the place would be opened
two or three times a week on working nights. The Rev.
Dr. Alliott, the Re 7. J. Branch, IV. D. Owen, Esq., and
other gentlemen having spoken in support of the charity, a
series of reaoldtions were carried, including one of
thanks to the Honourable Chairman, and the meeting se-
parated.
Somme notion of the exquisite texture obtained by the
aid of the Llama wool may be gained from the fact that,
without destroying the waterproof character of the cloth, the
Messrs. Nicoll, of Regent-street, have succeeded in making
their registered Paletot, for the present hot weather, of a
lightness almost astonishing—viz., eleven ounces.
The Royal Humane Society, last week, liberally
awarded a medal and a handsome pecuniarygrant. to Mr. Win.
Haviland, timekeeper at the engine factory of Messrs. Penn
and Sons, Greenwich, for having saved two persons from
drowning in the Thames, off East Greenwich, on Sunday, the
21st ult. Mr. Havil ind's name is also recorded in the So-
ciety's books as having saved the life of a fellow-passenger
who had fallen overboard a packet off the Nore, at midnight,
2d September, 1832, on which Mr. Haviland plunged after
and rescued him. -

BEER BY POST.—The most novel conveyance which
the Post-office was ever the medium of was, perhaps, last
week in the transmission of concentrated extract of bee(
suffic►ent to make ciaart of a through the at
