London, England, 1866-09-13

The Royal Observatory.

For some time past Mr. John Browning, a gen-
tleman well known in scientific circles, has been
erecting, under the supervision of the Astronomer
Royal and Mr. Glaisher, a new set of instruments
for registering the speed and pressure of the wind.
As the instruments are both near completion, and
are indeed in operation, a description of them can-
not be read without interest. The first, for regis-
tering the force of the wind, consists of a circular
plate of metal of a diameter equal to two square feet
in area, supported by eight tempered steel springs.
When the wind impinges on the circular plate the
springs are brought consecutively into action, the
stronger coming into play before the weaker have
received any strain. The plate is kept constantly
facing the wind by means of a direction vane. From
the plate a fine flexible wire is carried down through
a hollow pillar which supports the vane, the whole
apparatus being in a room below. The wire governs
the motion of a pencil, which is made to traverse a
table covered with slate, on which is strained a sheet
of paper, marked with the hours. This table is moved
by clockwork, and the pencil being regulated by the
pressure-plate registers on the paper the pressure of
the wind during every portion of the 24 hours. The
instrument, which is capable of registering as light a
pressure as even two or three ounces on the square
foot, will in strong gales have to withstand a force
of 401 b. to the square foot. The next instrument is for
the purpose of registering the velocity of the wind.
This consists essentially of four hollow hemispheri-
cal cups attached by arms to a central spindle. These
keep revolving at one-third of the velocity of the wind.
The motion of the spindle is reduced by a train of
wheelwork, and the register is by indices on gra-
duated circles, showing respectively tenths of a mile,
miles, tens of miles, and hundreds of miles ; one of
the wheels has a rackwork motion attached to it,
which communicates by means of a rod with a pen-
cil inside another room. This pencil is carried over
paper strained on a cylinder. The paper is marked
with the hours, and the pencil registers automati-
cally and continuously the velocity of the wind dur-
ing both day and night. The velocity at Greenwich
has never exceeded 800 miles in the 24 hours, but at
Liverpool greater speeds have been registered. It
may be added that it is intended eventually to pre-
pare a new set of tables showing what velocities are
usually prevalent during the currency of certain
pressures, and vice versa.

Lifeboat Services.

GORTHDEULLAN, North Wales.—lt blew a most
teriffie gale here from N.W. yesterday (reports the
Rev. J. Hughes). There were several ships in the
bay riding very heavily, and one of them, the
schooner Columbia, of Nefyn, was observed to be
driving. Shortly afterwards she hoisted a signal of
distress, when a lifeboat of the National Lifeboat
Institution—the " Cotton Sheppard"—was at once
launched to her assistance. After a severe pull,
the sea • running mountains high, the lifeboat suc-
ceeded in reaching the vessel, and took off the crew
of five men, who were every minute afraid the ves-
sel would break from her only remaining anchor,
and would be dashed on the neighbouring rocks,
which were fearfully near. Their only boat had
previously been washed away and dashed to pieces.
Before leaving the vessel some of the lifeboat's
crew went on board and aided.to make her as secure
as circumstances would allow, and she was then
abandoned, as none of the crew would remain on
board her. Fortunately the weather modr3rated,
and she held on until this morning, when the crew
returned to her, and succeeded in bringing her to a
place of safety.

NE WMARKET.

Most of our trainers are at Doncaster, so that
very little of consequence is stirring here now.
Several of our Cesarewitch horses are in steady
work, and amongst them, more particularly, Breeze,
Lothario, Jollity, Il Re Galantuomo, and the Duke
of York. Breeze follows Dalesmau a couple of
miles each morning, and is getting back to her old
form apparently. Tomahawk leads Lothario, and
the latter goes first class a mile and three-quarters.
Most of the others named above do close upon two
miles each morning. Gladiateur is 'working by
himself, and strides over the Bury-hill beautifully
now. So does Friday.

are on next week. Rose and Plaudit are doing
exceedingly well, but neither are likely to be stripped
next week. The latter is being kept for the Middle
Park, and will be a thorn in the side of Achieve-
ment. El Cid, Lalage, Monolith, and others, of
Lord Zetland's are galloping at half speed only.

VAItNA.

The half-yearly meeting of this company was held
yesierday at the offices, Angel-court ; Mr. A. W.
Blake in the chair.
The SECRETARY read the report, which stated that
the works of the railway were very nearly finished,
only
six miles of rails remaining to be laid to com-
plete the line from end to end. The station build-
ings and other works were in a very advanced state,
and would be ready for the opening of the line. The
greater portion of the rolling stock had been de-
livered, but in consequence of delay by the Maritime
Company of Belgium in shipping the remainder, and
also owing to the quarantine of ten days established
at Varna, it would be impossible to open the line on
the Ist of October ; but the date of the opening
might be definitely fixed for the 17th of October,
when the line and rolling stock would be in a very
complete state. By advices received from Turkey
the directors were informed that the railway would
be opened by his Imperial Majesty the Sultan in
person, or by the important Government officials
representing him, and that the Government would
continue to take the same interest in the success of
the undertaking as heretofore. The total capital
expended was £1,465,170.
The CHAIRMAN, in moving the adoption of the re-
port, said it was a subject of congratulation to the
shareholders that the railway would be opened in
October next. In the papers of that morning he had
observed an independent message in which it was
stated that their line was completed.
Notice had
been given to the Turkish Government
tI
for t haveoa tine
end the
t he
line inspected, and there was no doubt t a
-
end of next month it would be quite ready pen
- ina It would be very
important to the Turkish
otm to im prove
Government, and might in
duce .
h beh e
thought they
the harbour at Varna, which
would do.
The report was then
unanimously adopted, and
a vote of thanks to the Chairman terminated the
proceedings.

STRAND THEATRE.

Last evening the long announced burlesque by
Mr. Barnard, " Der Freischutz, or a Good Cast
for a Piece," was produced here with all that taste
and splendour which so distinguishes the manage-
ment of that elegant little theatre. The original
plot of the great opera is closely adhered to, albeit
in a very comical manner, and all the terrors of the
celebrated incantation scene, the Wolf's Glen, with
the casting of the magic bullets, are parodied with
great effect. The part of Agnes was represented by
Miss Ada Swanborough with great spirit and effect,
and Miss Raynham refined the part of the demon
Zamiel in a very humorous manner. Casper, of
course, was represented by Mr. Fenton, who, on
this occasion, exceeded all his former efforts as
an artist and an actor. Mr. Frederick Robson
made his first appearance here in a part called
Catspaw, and met with a genial reception. The
burlesque abounds in puns, good and indifferent,
whilst the musical portion of the entertainment em-
braces all the operatic genius of the season. The
Parisian dancers come in for a good share of bur-
lesque, and in the last scene we have a very excel-
lent review of the Strand Volunteers, who go
through various military evolutions with great
effect. The scenery, by Mr. C. Fenton, is of re-
markable excellence, whilst the dresses are as quaint

THE WEATHER AND THE HARVESTIN YORKSHIRE.
—After the worst week of the present harvest, a most glo-
rious change has occurred, dull November fogs having
given place to bright, warm, summer-like weather. Up
to Thursday last dense fogs enveloped the wolds and
moors, keeping the grain constantly wet, and, with the
warm temperature, encouraging sprouting freely. On
Friday and Saturday harvest work was carried on in ear-
nest, and on Sunday the weather was beautifully warm
and dry. There is now every prospect of a Michaelmas
summer, after ten weeks of rain ; and, with a continuance
the harvest will be brought to a close this week in all but
late eittlatiOl4,

MARLBOROUGH-STREET

CARRYING ON BUSINESS WITH AN EMPLOYER'S PRO-
PERTY. - James Barnes, a joiner, in the employ of Messrs.
Rowney, artists' colourmen, of No. 11, Percy-street, Rath-
bone-place, was charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt with stealing
a quantity of property belonging to his employers.
Mr. Lewis, sen., of Ely-place, appeared for the defence.
Mr. Frederick William Rowney said—Having received
information that the prisoner, who was in our employ as a
joiner, was in the habit of nightly carrying away things
from our warehouse, 1 communicated with the police, and
last night, in company of a constable (Carter, 117 E) over-
took the prisoner in Rathbone-place. I told the prisoner
that I had been informed that he had been carrying away
goods nightly, aid, after a little hesitation, prisoner
said, " Well, Mr. Rowney, to tell you the truth, I did
take a few little things—part of a stretcher and some
pencils. The prisoner afterwards said he had taken some
T squares. He asked me not to press the charge. lafter-
wards went by the prisoner's directions to his lodgings,
and found some other property there. The prisoner gave
me a card, from which it appeared that he was carrying on
business on his own account in our goods.

Mr. Lewis.—As the prisoner must be remanded, I have
to ask that he be remanded at once, and that bail may be
taken.

Mr. Tyrwhitt—l shall remand the prisoner, but will not
take bail.

WESTMINSTER.

ROUGH DIALOGUE BEFORE 1211 E MAGISTRATE.--JOhlt May
and Edward Harper, the foriner standing nearly 6 feet and
the latter 6 feet 6 inches, were chatged with being drunk
and fighting.
George Powley, 228 B, proved that at ten o'clock on the
previous evening he saw the defendants outside the
Feathers, Broadway, fighting. They were separated, but
went across the road and began again. May was then
driven right away, but came back again, strippod off his
clothes, and commenced fighting again, upon which they
wore taken into custody.

May said —He challenged me to fight, you see. Ho was
in the publichouse, and said he was the Westminster in-
fant, and would fight anybody. I said 1 was a little 'un,
and I had a turn up with him, and I licked him.
. . .

Harper—Just listen to me. He and me married sisters
18 months ago, and we have not agreed since. I and my
wifo and his wife were in the public-house. I came out ;
he followed me, and would fight me. The police will
prove that ho came back and attacked me. I didn't want
to fight.
May—He calls himself a fighting man—the " West-
minster Infant," and tried to impose upon me, but I beat
him. _ .

Mr. Selfe—lt says, " Children, never let your angry
passions rise."
May—You ought to b 3 ashamed of yourself, a big fellow
like you. It's a great pity you don't have a cradle and
nurse.

Harper—Be quiet. Your worships
1 am a hard-working
man, and I didn't want to fight.
May was fined 10s. or 7 days, and Harper ss. or 5 days.
May called out as they left the Court, " D'ye hear, I
hope you'll put us in a proper cell."
