of the strongest description; these walls to be built from
the level of low water only for the North Breakwater,
but in the East Breakwater, to be brought up on the
harbour side from the bottom, with diving bells, so as to
make the whole length of this breakwater a convenient
wharf, which I consider necessary, from its being in
immediate connexion with the dockyards on Salt Island,
and calculated to become an important part of that;
branch of the establishment. The head of each break-
water will also be formed of ashlar stone wall ; that of
the Eastern Breakwater will be built up from te Plat-
ters (rocks), and that of the Northern will have its walls
founded thirty feet below low water, Its shown on the.
draw ings,
"All these walls below low water will be built of
large squared blocks of sand-stone, and above low water
with limestone ashlar facing, and sandstone ashlar
backing, or with the stone of the locality set in suitable
cement.

"The top of the great or North Breakwater would be
40 feet wide, and raised 18 feet above ordinary spring
tides, with Et parapet 8 feet 6 inches high,
" Tke East Breakwater would be formed-ts a wharf,
fro feet wide, and raised eight feet above spring tides,
with a parapet eight feet high, All ether dimensions
and details are so plainly shown on the drawings as to
make further description unnecessary.p

REVIEWS OF THE WORK.

" The author of this singular and talented work is a legally quali-
fied medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in
the treatment of the various disorders arising from the follies and
frailties of early Indiscretion. The engravings are an invaluable ad-
dition, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must
act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal
many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no ap-

NORTH W ALES RAILWAY.

The half-yearly meeting of this company took place
on Saturday at the London Tavern ; Wm. Berkeley
Hughes, M.P., in the chair.
We extract the following from the report :
" The directors, in meeting the shareholders at this
the ordinary half-yearly meeting, beg to report that the
Bill for the deviation from Bangor to Carnarvon has
obtained the assent of Parliament, after considerable
difficulty and great delay, occasioned by the hurried
manner in which the same was prepared; after the Bill
was printed additions and amendments had to be made
to the clauses for the deviation, and the Bill thus altered
passed the House of Commons, notwithstanding petitions
were presented against it by Mr. Powell and Mr. Archer.
On its introduction into the Lords Mr. Powell again
petitioned against it, on the ground, as he stated, of the
amended line more prejudicially. interfering with his
property than allowed by the original Act; his opposi-
tion, however, ceased on the solicitor of the Company
agreeing that the line as amended shoald not pass nearer
to his house than before permitted.
"From this delay in the passing of the amended Bi

the directors have Been preented—settling the terms of
the contract with Mr. Jackson, as they did not think
themselves justified in having the contract forwarded to
him for his approval until they were in a position to
know that the Bill for the amendment would receive the
sanction of Parliament, the specification of Sir John
Rennie, on which Mr. Jackson's tender was founded,
!laving been prepared on the line proposed to be made
under the powers of such Bill ; as soon, therefore, as
the Bill was in the Lords, and the opposition of Mr.
Powell withdrawn, the solicitor, in pursuance of his
instructions, forwarded the draft contract to Mr. Jackson,
and which he has just returned unapproved, declining
to entertain the same, and wishing, it would seem, to
perform the works without being under contract.
Although delay has thus occurred in the commencement
of the construction of the line, it will not, it is thought,
be disadvantageous to the companyy, considering that the
junction with the Chester and Holyhead Railway cannot
be effected from the non-completion of that line, and
also looking to the state of the money market and rail-
way matters during the last few months.

the suit in Chancery which they, upon the advice of
their late solicitor, Mr. David Williams and his counsel,

THE EARL OF DUNDONALD.

Lord BROUGHAM rose to present a petition of very
great importance, and one to which he begged to call her
Majesty's Government's attention, faom an individual
that was known not only in this country but in Europe,
but he might say in the world. It was from Lord Dun-
donald better known under the name of Lord Cochrane.
He would venture to assert that no captain either by sea
or on shore had performed nobler exploits, or had been
of more service, d'iring the contest of the late war, than
Lord Cochrane. It would be recollected that Lord
Dundonald had been dismissed from the service of his
Sovereign, and had been degraded from his high rank
for being connected with certain transactions of which
he was wholly ignorant. On the trial, when this affair
was investigated, his counsel including himself, Mr. Best
(Lord Wynford) and Mr. Topping had all vehemently
urged him to declare the truth, which was that the guilty
party, Mr. Cochrane Johnson, a near relative, was the
person who had committed the act for which his relative
suffered such disgrace and loss. They had all urged him
for hous, but he would not commit a near relation, and
neither then nor now did he allude to the circumstances.

ROBINSON V. WALL.

This cause came on upon a bill filed by the plaintiffs
in this suit (Robinson and Gillett), praying for the spe-
cific performances of a contract entered into by the cie •
fe•ndants for the purchase of estates which were put
up for sale by auction, and purchased by Wall, as
the representative of Flight, for the sum of 50,0001.
Messrs. Kiadersley and Chundleys appeared in support
of the prayer of the plaintiff's bill, which was opposed
by Mr. Turner, with whom was Mr. Rogers. The ar-
guments in the case had not concluded at the rising of
the Court.
In the course of the day the new Lord Mayor entered
the Court in procession, and invited the Master of the
Rolls to an entertainment to be given this evening at
Guildhall.

VICE-CHANCERY COURT, Non. 9.
(Before the VICE•CHANCELLOR Of ENGLAND.)
The Court took demurrers to-day.
FINDEN V. STEVENS.

The arguments in this part•heard case were resumed
and concluded to-day. The case came before the Court
upon a demurrer put in by the defendants to the bill
filed by the plaintiff, and the question involved was,
whether the plaintiff was entitled to sustain his bill
against the trustees of the testator in the cause.
His HONOUR considered that he was, and ordered the
demurrer to be overruled.
THE NEW LORD MAYOR.

Sir George Carroll, the new Lord Mayor, accompa-
nied by the City authorities, came into this Court in the
course of the morning, and invited his Honour to the
dinner at Guildhall this evening.
(Before Vice-Chancellor J. K. ButrcE.)
The Court was occupied during the greater part of
the day with a cause: which was part-heard, entitled
Massey v. Johnson, iu which his Honour directed an
issue.

The new Lord Mayor made his customary visit to the
Court, and invited his Honour to the Civic dinner at
Guildhall this evening..

IN RE BRIGHTON RAILWAY COMPANY.

This was a petition, in which the petitioner, who was
tenant for lite in shares in the above company, sought
for confirmation and consequential directions with regard
to a sum of money in Court. It appeared that this case
had been referred to the Master to make inquiries, and
he accordingly had made a report, the puport of which
was that application was warranted, but that a smaller
sum than that mentioned in the bill of the petitioner
should be allocated to his use.

ASTLEY'S AMPHITHEATRE.

Gorgeous in scenic effect and costume, and startling
in incident as have been many of the spectacles given to
the world by Mr. Batty, he yet last night in the produc-
tion of The Demon Horse, or the Twelve Wishes and the
Charmed Bit fairly outdid all his previous achievements,
and exhibited to a crowded house a complete realization
of the wildest dreams that ever entered the ima-
gination of a German poet. To the mysteries of
German forests, and the might of German gnomes, were
superadded the romance Of Oriental literature, and the
beauty of Oriental skies. The extraordinary enterprise
Mr. Batty possesses, and the ample resources he com-
mands at will, have enabled him to bring from each
country of the world the animals peculiar to
itself, and thus in the Demon Horse we were
presented in Germany with living deer bounding over
the stage in the agonies of the chase, while, in the neigh.
bourhood of Damascus, we had the patient camels of
Syria and the wild zebras of the desert. Two polar
'bears, also, made their first bows to a Surrey audience ;
but we must, in truth, confess that their "get-
ting up " was far from truthful, inasmuch as
they resembled over-grown maggots in a decayed
cheese, with their extremities carefully rolled
up in lambswool. The brutes were, however, agile, and
pleased the juveniles amazingly. The plot itself can
with difficulty be unravelled, and our readers must,
therefore, rest contented with a very brief outline. Ul-
ric Martens (Mr. Harwood), a miller's son, indulges cer-
tain ambitious longings, which make him forget his
business and his peasant love Alicia (Mrs. Johnson). The
demon encourages this train of thought, and promises his
victim that he shall, on condition that he gives himself
up to everlasting misery, have in this world the ful-
filment of his twelve wishes, each wish being
equivalent to five years of his existence. The
compact is entered into, and the real action of the
piece commences. The second Tableaux exhibited a
wild, rocky country in Flanders, end stags bounding
across the stage, followed by an animated troop of
hunters on foot and horseback. Many admirable leaps
were performed, in which, truth to tell, the fair eques-
trians far excelled their male companions. An incident
occurs which introduces Ulric to the Count of Flanders
(Mr. Dale). This is nothing less than the preservation
of the Princess Odyle (Mrs. Adams). Two wishes have
been sacrificed--ten years of Ulrio's life have been a-

ROLLS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

ROBINSON V. WALL.
The arguments in this cause were resumed by the
Counsel for the defendants, Messrs. Turner, Roupel,
and Rogers. They occupied the whole day, and had not
concluded at the rising of the Court at three o'clock.

VICE-CHANCERY.—(THIS DAY)
(Before the VICE-CHANCELLOR OF ENGLAND.)
His Honour the Vice-Chancellor of England took
demurrers, and further directions to-day.

KIRKE V. THE BROMLEY UNION GUARDIANS.
The arguments on this part-heard case, which came
before the Court upon a demurrer, were resumed and
concluded to-day.
The Court ordered the demurrer to be overruled.
LEWIS AND OTHERS V. COOPER AND OTHERS.
This case came before the Court upon a demurrer put
in by the defendants to the plaintiffs' bill. The plaintiffs are
some of the shareholders of a railway that was projected
last year, to be called the South and Midland Railway
Company, and the defendants were some of the directors
of that company. The scheme having been abandoned
the shareholders filed their bill for the purpose of ob-
taining an injunction to restrain the defendants from
taking out of Court the money that had been paid in
under the provisions of the Act of Parliament. Upon
a motion for that purpose, the Vice-Chancellor of Eng-
land granted an injunction, which was dissolved upon an
application to the Lord Chancellor. The present bill
alleged that the directors had received 99,000/., that out
of that they had paid certain expenses, together with
55,0001., which they had paid into Court, and that amount
the bill asked the Court to order to be divided amongst
the shareholders. To this bill the directors put a de-
murrer for want of parties.
His HONOUR, without calling upon the counsel who
appeared for the plaintiffs, ordered the demurrer to be
overruled.

THE NATIONAL GALLERY.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sra,—l request the favour of your attention to a Par-
liamentary Return (printed 17th of August, 1846,) of
Pictures purchased for the National Gallery, with the
sums paid for the same. Generally speaking, they
appear to have been bought at very extravagant prices.
But lot us take the last mentioned, No. 65, " Susanna
and the Elders," out of Mr. Penrice's collection, for
1,2601. Now, Sir, I happened to be present at this sale
by Messrs. Christie and Manson, on Saturday, July 6,
1844, when this identical picture wag knocked down for
the sum of 900 guineas to a gentleman of the name of
Grimshaw. It is charged to us (the public) 1,260/.
Will you, Sir, be so obliging as to inform us into whose
purse or pocket this little difference (3151.) between 900
guineas and 1,2601. has found its way? The preceding
lot ("Lot and his Daughters") was purchased for the
National Gallery at the sum specified in the Parlia-
mentary return—namely, 1,600 guineas—and a most
splendid picture it is; as far superior to " Susanna and
the Elders" as a sovereign to a shilling.
Hoping you will be pleased to favour us with the ex-
planation requested, and tell us the circumstances which
at present appear a little suspicious, I remain, Sir,

SOUTHWARK.

John Brown, a man advanced in life, was charged
with stealing a Sun newspaper, from the premises of
Mr. Wood, a coffee-house keeper, in the vicinity of this
Court.

Mr. Wood said the prisoner was in his coffee-room on
Saturday morning, and soon after his departure four
newspapers were missed. He came again in the evening,
and a watch being kept upon him, when he left the box
in which ho was sitting, The Sun of the same evening
was missing. He was followed, and brought back and
questioned, as to whether he had any newspapers in his
pocket, and he replied in the negative, and exhibited his
pockets to confirm the truth of his declaration. His hat,
however, was taken off, and in the 'inside The Sun was
discovered. He was then given into custody. '
The prisoner accounted for the eireumstance of the'
above newspaper being found where it was by saying
that his hat being too large for his head, he put it inside
to keep it from falling over his eyes.
Mr. SECKER said he did not believe one word of such
a defence, but that the prisoner had taken the newspaper
for the purpose of disposing of it, and converting the
proceeds to his own use. The' Magistrate then inflicter?,
a fine of ten shillings on the prisoner for having un-
lawful possession of the newspaper, and in default of pay-
ment committed him for fourteen days.
