DEAL—This place and the adjoining villa of Walmet
are now well filled with fashionable visitors. Among
the distinguished persons now residing in the localitl
are Lord Marcus Hill, Lady
,Newry, Lady KilmurrYt
&c. The extreme healthfulness of the place is attested
by the returns of mortality, which for the last four
months give about six per 1,000 only of the population.
Complaints are beginning to be made of the want of ad-
ditional first class lodging-houses—an excellent sign of
increasing prosperity.—South-Eastern Gazette.
THE WRECK OF THE JOSEPHINE WILLIS. —The divers
from Whitstable have, since the fine weather set inf
been most successful in their operations in rescuing
salvage from the sunken wreck of the Josephine
Willis' off Dover. Very large quantities of bet
cargo from the held are weekly brought up, and sent
on here, to be disposed of for the benefit of all concerned.
The divers experience much difficulty in getting out
some of the packages on account of their large dimen-
sions ; yet they have overcome all obstacles, and they
are sanguine not only of saving the whole of the cargos
but eventually of raising the ship. They have surveyed
her, and find nothing to prevent her from being lifted.
She has not altered her position in the least, and is
not so encumbered with mud and sand as might be
expected, the tides having much influence in keeping
her free. Her masts have been all got out of her.
South Eastern Gazette.

11. An evening course of lectures, chiefly intended for
schoolmasters, but open to others, was given during the
last year by Professor Huxley, and was attended by 64
persons, of 17 were schoolmasters. In the previous
course of chemistry by Dr. Hofmann, 253 persons at-
tended, of whom 60 were schoolmasters.
It would be a subject of regret to your lordships if
similar courses of instruction were not to be given in
future years, special reasons having been assigned for
their discontinuance during the present year.
12. The lectures to the working men have consisted,
during the past year, of four courses.
Six upon Natural Philosophy, by Professor Stokes.
Chemistry by Dr. Hofmann.
11
Metals
Mining by Mr. Smyth.
The attendance upon them has been limited by the
size of the lecture room, which can only accommodate
600 persons, so that for the four courses nearly 2,400
tickets have been issued.
13. The laboratories attached to this institution are
two in number. The attendance in the laboratory of
the Royal College of Chemistry, under Dr. Hofmann,
has amounted to 100 pupils, and that in the laboratory
of Dr. Percy, which is confined to the special subject of
metallurgy, to 27 pupils.
Dr. Percy has completed, and has now in the press,
an elaborate inquiry on the composition of the iron
ores of this country. He also made, besides other in-
quiries for the Ordnance and the Colonial Secretary, an
examination of several ancient bells, with a view of
ascertaining the best composition for the „neat bell
of the new Houses of Parliament. Dr. Hofmann,
in addition to the remarkable scientific investiga-
tions which have issued from his laboratory,
bas made several reports on subjects transmitted by
various public departments.
D. MUSEUM OF PRACTICAL GEOLOGY.
14. Advances have been made in the preparation of
catalogues for this museum, and the director hopes to
be able to issue a popular edition of them in the course
of the present year.

Mr. Carew is consequently the winner of the prize,
and well it is deserved, for his vessel was sailed admirably.
The Zouave, although only 64 tons, was nowhere.

Directly after the start, when they were all off at full
speed, the two gentlemen, upon whom so many looked
with interest, Messrs. Schlotel and Cazaly, fouled, avd
had scarcely got clear when they were again in collision,
and during this time the other two went away ; Gre-
gory shortly after went in advance, and by dint of very
fine rowing, won by a couple of lengths.

It was a magnificent race. After a fine bustling start,
Ralph took the lead, closely followed by Cole, why, off
Finch's, collared and passed him. After this the race was
hollow.

A letter from Berne in the Inclependance Beige, under
date of August 13, says :—" Count Nesse!rode arrived
on the 10th on his return from Geneva, where he must
have met with Lord John Russell. The °aunt stayed
at the Crown Hotel, where the Russian minister in
Seitz-rland, Baron Krudener, has taken up his resi-
dence since his return from Frankfort."

The race is expected to be a very close one, but it is
extremely doubtful if the Arrow will arrive in time to
start.
We have just learned that the committee of the club
that met to-day on board the Commodore's yacht, the
Brilliant, having taken into consideration all the circum-
stances attending the race on Monday last, were unani-
mously of opinion that the prize should be presented to
the Mosquito, in consideration of her having generously
given up her chance of the race to render assistance to
tine dismasted Arrow, and by towing her up to the pier.
This was but the conduct of a gentleman, and reflects
the highest honour upon Mr. Groves, her owner. The
decision of the committee has met with the general ap-
probation of the club.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills
Infallible Cures for Scrofula.—Mr. Wm. Starleigh, shoe-
maker, of Tadcaster, was deplorably afflicted with
scrofula for very many years. Every variety of medicine
had been administered in vain ; all hopes of recovery had
entirely failed ; surgeons of the highest eminence had
pronounced his case incurable ; in fact, he had abandoned
every idea of a cure, but was persuaded to make use of
Holloway's ointment and pills, and the consequent re-
sult was the complete riddance of his complaint in an
inconsiderably short space of time.—Sold by all medicine
vendors throughout the world, at Professor Holloway's

lane, New York ; by A. Stamps, Constantinople ; A.

It is gratifying to state that the museum has been
opened during five days of the week instead of three, as
formerly. The number of visitors during last year was
13,000, being about 3,000 less than the previous year. A
corresponding diminution of numbers will be observed in
most museums during the year, and is supposed to be
due to the state of public affairs connected with the war.
Since the opening of the museum, however, Which
