LAUNCH OF THE LEVIATHAN.

, SUN OFFICE, 3 O'CLOCK (Tins Diy.)
Mr. Brunel and his assistants have been
busily employed all this morning in repairing
the accident of yesterday, and by to-morrow
morning will resume operations, which they tiuitt
will be completely successful in finally hunChing
the " big ship," and thereby relieve a very univer-
sal anxiety for the safety of this newest wonder of
the world.

ARLIANIENTARY REWARDS FOR THE HEROES OF DELHI
AND LLICKNOW.—We have reason to believe that early
in the ensuing Parliamentary se:avian the Goverurnent
intend to propose an annual grant of 1,000/, to Maj
General Sir Henry Havelock, Bart., K.C.8., as a re-
ward for his recent military services in India. At the
same time an annual grant from 1,500/. to 2,0001., we
are informed, will be proposed for Major General Sir
Archdale Wilson, Bart K.C.8., the gerieral command.

vices on that occasion. Of course these grants are irre-
sptctivu of any pecuoisry rewards those gallant olicerB
may receive from the East India Company.

THE WIND OF PROJECTILES.

The fact that a cannon ball
passing close by a
a living subject exercises a lateral pressure on the
air sufficient to produce a contusion has often been
asserted, and as often denied. On this disputed
matter M. E. Pelikan, of St. Petersburg, has just
presented a paper to the Academy of Sciences of
Paris, giving an account of certain experiments in-
stituted with a view to set the question at rest.
Having obtained the concurrence of the Russian
Government, M. Pelikan caused a cylinder of sheet
iron, 1 foot in diameter, to be constructed, with a
piston moving easily inside. The piston-rod was
provided at its outer extremity with a black lead
pencil to mark the recoil on a slip of paper. The
whole apparatuswas firmly fixed on a strong wooden
frame. The piston and piston-rod weighed 81b.,
and a force of lilb. was requisite to make the piston
recoil an inch. At four metres' distance from the
frame a wooden screen was erected, in order to as-
certain the distance of the projectile from the
piston at the moment of its passage. Although
the experiments instituted in 1843 and 1844 in the
arsenal of Washington, by Major Mordicay proved
that at the distance of 48 feet the gases emanating
from the powder have no effect upon the balistic
pendulum, a second screen was placed before the
other, at 5 metres' distance from the apparatus, in
order to protect it, if necessary, from the action of
these gaseL A 401 b. howitzer was then placed at a
distance of 14 metres from the first screen, the
charge of powder being 41b. ; the velocity of the
projectile at that distance was equal to that of a
bombshell projected with a 71b. charge—viz., 956
feet per second. The results obtained showed,-1,
that at a distance of 3 inches, the piston remained
immovable ; 2, that even when the projectile broke
off a part of the wooden frame supporting the cy-
linder the piston gave no indication of motion ; 3,
but that if the projectile just grazed the surface of
the piston, a recoil of 2 inches was obtained ; 4, if,
on the other hand, a fragment of the frame hit the
the cylinder the piston, instead of moving back-
wards, would move forwards about 31 lines ; 5, if
the cylinder, instead of being placed parallel to the
screens, was placed obliquely, a recoil would take
place of from one-quarter to one-half of an inch.
Hence M. Pelikan concludes that, since the piston
required a force of lilb. in order to be moved an
inch, and the wind of a cannon-ball can never be
expected to exercise such a torte, the passage of a
projectile close to a living subject will only produce
an insignificant effect, which cannot amount to a
contusion.

SRetrEORDSTIIRE STATE OF SOUTH

In consequence of the stoppage of the Wolverhamp-
ton and Staffordshire Bank, several of the shopkeepers
and small manufacturers, who had deposits or balances
in the concern heretofore available for carrying on their
business, have been compiled to close their doors, and
a great many mom are making arrangements to take
the benefit of the Insolvent Act,. In a week or two it is
expected that great distress will prevail in the town in
consequence of the number of hands that will be thrown
out of employment. In this district there are at least
two dozen furnaces brown ont, and this number will
be doubled before the week is over.
The following iron and coal masters are gradually
reducing their establishments :
The Chillington Company,
Welverhampton.-300
men discharged.
Lord Ward, Dadley.—Several furnaces stopped, coal-
pits closed, and men noticed that their wages would be
reduced by 20 per cent.
Mr. Badger, Dudley.—Two or three furnaces blown
out.
Mr. Haden, Dixon'e Green, Dudley, is putting out his
furnace...
Woodall and Smith, Windmill End, near Dudley, are
putting out their furnaces.
Mr. Cochrane, Dudley, has discharged about 100 men
within the last month.
Mr. S. Blackwell.—Notice to men of a reduction of
20 per cent. on their wages, and that others will be put
on short. time.
British Iron Works.—Three furnaces blown out,
-:-Mr; Jones, near Walsall.—Tbree furnaces blowl out,
and 11 pits stopped within the last three weeks.
Hatherton Furnace;.—Two about to be extinguished.
Mr. F.
Morris and Son, Tipton.—Stopped payment ow Wed-
nesday last. Works expected to close. gliead.
C. Perry.—One furnace stopped at Rin
Rose, Higgins, and Rose.—All works out.
With regard too the affiirs of the Wolverhampton and
Stoffordshrze Banking Company, it may be that Mr.
Sparrow, one of the largest sbarebolders in the bank,
went carefully through the assets on Thursday and Fri-
days, and is of ()Pinion that the bills in hand will realise
10,0001. more than was anticipated Ly the directors in
their report. Nothing with accuracy is known when the
bank will re-open.

ROYAL PBISCES3'S THEATRK

Shakspeare's tragedy of Richard 11. was reproduced
last night to a crowded and etithu,iastic audience, with
the same scenic completeness and accuracy of detail that
marked its revival last season. Mr. C. Kean's taste,
knowledge, and ability, have given to the public a
transcript from history, and thus afforded an entertain-
ment of the highest order of intellectual gratification.
The sympathies were again excited, and the eye bewil-
dered by the massive splendour placed before them.
The church bells again sounded their merry peal through.
out that matchless " Episode" representing the streets of
old London, with its vast caneourse of people forming
the most illusive and most truthful effect that was ever
witnessed upon a stage. The charsc'or of King Richard
was sustained by Mr. C. Keae, aed is without doubt
one of the finest impersonations of this great actor—
one which he has evidently stadied with a-. much care as
the decorative ornaments that fum the gorgeous frame.
work cf the picture. The nfleotive passages were most
beautifelly delivered, and the buss's of passion as truth-
like as they were effective. Mrs. C. Kean appeared as
Richard's Queen, and threw so much feeling and refined
tenderness into this comparatively trivial part as to
render it apparently more important than it really is.
ivlr. Ryder acted liogbroke with coaLly bearing and
vigorous earnestness. The public aro deeply indebted
to Mr. C. Kean for these magnificent Shakesperian
revivals.

LONDON, TUESDAY, DEC. 1, 1357.

We would earnestly direct public attention to
the very interesting and important meetings of
Monetary Reformers, which have just taken place,
on Friday and Saturday last, at Glasgow and East
Retford. Many of the leading merchants and
inhabitants deplored the evils to which they had
recently been exposed from the baleful operation
of the Bank Charter Act, and almost unanimously
called upon the Government for its repeal, or
modification. Although these gentlemen di.l not
go to the full extent we could have desired, in
impeaching the equally injurious Act of 1819, it
is satisfactory to find a spirit of inquiry excit,!(l
and a disposition to question the authoritative
dicta thundered forth from Printing-house-Square
by the organ of
" the hard calculators." The :re
:
dictatorial assertions will no longer bo taken on
trust. If every
description of credit is to be anni-
hilated, the faith in the currency quacks will
also be destroyed.
Truth must be benefited by discussion. A strict,
searching, Unprejtaked, and disinterested investi-
gation is all we desire, and we earnestly hope
that all the Chambers of Commerce throughout
the entire country will hold meetingz4, so that tilt
real feelings and wishes of the people may bt
clearly ascertained. We believe that there wool
be an overwhelming majority against the obeexiou •
law and in favour of free trade in money, or inoze

ADMINISTRATION OF OATHS BY LONDON COMMIS-
SIONERS.:—AcVndiog to the rresent practice, commis-
sions for taking' affidavits in the several superior courts
of common law are issued to every attorney residing at
,he di3tance of 10 miles or upward from London ; but
such commissions do not authorise the administration
Of an oath within 10 miles of London. The consequence
of: this restriction is, that any deponent residing 10
fades or more trona London cm make an affidavit in
any action or other proceeding before the nearest gator-
ley who has ob'ained a commission, at nny hour most
convenient to all parties ; hut if the deponent reside in
London, or within 10 miles, ho roust either travel be-
yond 10 miles from London t 3 a commissioner, or must
attend the court, or at the judge's charn,hers, within cer-
tain limited hours. It has therefore been submitted to
the Chief Justices- and the Chief Barou that the public
convenience and the saving of expense to the suitor in
common law
proceedings would be consulted 'by grant-
ing commissions to a sufficient number of attorney s
carrying on business in different parts of Landon to the.
instance of 10 miles therefrom. The Council have not
yet received a reply t!) 'their' applioation._-:.souciors,

AGRA.

The Molussilite of July 22 states that about
1,500 mutinous sepoys were known to have been
amt ng the insurgents who opposed the British force
under Brigadier Polwhele in the action of the sth
instant. -
It has not been ascertained what other mutinous
corps took part in the action—in fact it is not sup-
posed that others were present as organized bodies,
though very probably many men from other regi-
ments assisted on the occasion besides a host of
Googers.
The insurgent army was commanded by General
Sirdharee Sing of Untabeg, recently a Subadar in
the Ist Light Cavalry ; while Heera. Sing Thakoor
of the Malwa Contingent was Brigade Major or
Chief of the Staff. Both men it will he observed are
11 in de os.
The enemy had 12 guns on the ground.

LONDON, WEDNESDAY, SEPT. 16, 1857.

The Overland Mail, so anxiously looked for,
has arrived, and copious extracts will be found in
another part of this day's impression. It will be
seen that the atrocious miscreant, NANA SAHIB,
the ringleader of the cinspiracy, the murderer,
nit only of the fugitives, who might have ex-
pected protection at his hands, but also of those
who, confiding in his deceitful and treacherous
promises, bad capitulated at Cawnpore, has ex-
piated his diabolical offences by an act of self-
murder—all his family, according to Eastern cus•
torn, being involved in one common destruction.
This is a striking example to the rebels. It shows
that the man, to whom they chiefly looked as the
head of th.eir confederacy, the acting chief of the
future ludian.Empire, had totally despaired, and
avoided impeudiug justice by an act of self-immo-
lation. This rests on no d lubtful authority. It
is cor.tained in a despatth from the camp
of the gallant HAVELOGE, in which it
is stated that, after the unopposed destruction
of Bithoor, the rebel leader had at first con-
templated going to Lucknow, but when he came
to the river, finding himself deserted by his
cavalry and infantry, "he had drowned hinise7f
with all his family."
It would have been more sal,isfactory had be
met the felon death he so richly merited—had
the hangman's skill been called into operation.
But, as it is, a great effect must necessarily be
produced on the mutineers, and all their alders
and abettors.
It is a positive relief to the national mind to
know that the career of this sanguinary ruffian
has been brought to a summary conclusion. There
was not a single redeeming feature in his cha-
racter. The blackest treachery was added to the
most fiendish cruelty. His victims were those
with whom he had previously associated, and for
whom he professed sincere friendship—whom he

actuAVy pressing them
bad promised' to protect,
to seek refuge in his fortress at Bithoor, where they
would be safe from any outbreakl And yet it was
by his orders that they were consigned to the
most horrible and heartrending dEstanetion.
It was on the 16th July that HAVELOCK
marched into Cawnpore. He had previously
taken 12 guns from the rebels, after their igno.
minions flight from Futte.hpore—we can scarcely
his troops were
call it an action. Oa the 15th
twice again engaged, and captured four more
guns; and on the 16th he recaptured alwrp)re,
having totally defeated NANA SAHIB and taken
six. more guns, four of them of siege calibre.
There had been contests at a succession of villages,
behind which the enemy were posted. But
the flank being ably turned, the rebels
SEA in dismay, and Cawnpore was re-
gained. There the terrible evidences of
the fearful outrages that had. been committed
were discovered. A whole Sale massacre had been
perpetrated 1 88 officers, 190 men of her Ma-

GOVERNMENT INQUIRY AT BELFAST.
Mr. David Lynch, Q.C., Roman Catholic and

pointed by the Lord-Lieutenant to inquire into
the recent disgraceful outrages in Belfast, arrived

County Court-house. Among those present as

Bishops, the Mayor of Belfast, and several local
civil authorities. Mr. A. O'Rourke appeared for
the Roman Catholic 'inhabitants who had suffered
by, the riots ' • Mr. John Rea for some others, and

commissioners ; Mr. M‘Meehan represented the

EAST SURREY.

Sir Walter Buchanan Riddell, Bart., the barrister
appointed to revise the lists of voters for the Eastern
Division of Surrey, held his first court yesterday, at
the Vestry Hall, Kennington-green, and 13:,! an
with those of the 'parishes of Clapham, Lambeth,
and Streatham.

Mr. George R. Corner, solicitor, Mr. Thomas
Jeans, secretary to the East. Surrey Reform Regis-
tration Society, and Mr. Winghara, appeared for
the liberals ; and Mr. Colombo, from the office of
Mr: Edward Mcymott, attended to the conservative
interest.

The revision commenced with the lists of the
parishes of Clapham and Streatham, in which the
overseers have very properly objected to the_name.s_
of many persons, mostly on the grounds of deaths,
removal from the parishes, and by reason Of re
claims, and thereby saved the time of the court, ua
left but little to the agents to do.
On opening the lists for the parish of Lambeth,
Mr. Maker proved the servica of notice of objec-
tion, through the postmaster, to the name of Mr.
Robert William Alabaster, and on handing a copy
of it to the Revising Barrister, Sir Walter asked
for a copy of the notice given to the overseers.
Mr. Baker said he gave a notice to the overseers,
but did not keep a copy of it.
Sir Walter Riddell replied—l think your notice
won't dn.

Mr. Corner submitted that the objecf-or had done
all that the Act of Parliament required by giving
notice to the overseers, who have adopted the
►.otices, and published the list. A copy of it was
before the court, and in the hands of the clerk of
the peace.
The objection was allowed.
The court was adjoured. until 11 o'clock this
morning to the Workhouse Committee Room, Ber-
mondsey, when it will proceed with the revision of
the lists of the polling district of Bf,rtnondse3,-..

-I,j R. HOWARD, Bnrgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet-
. street, has introduced an entirely new description of ARTI-
FICIAL TEETH ,flxed without springs, wires, or ligatures. They so
'erfectly resemble the natural teeth as not to be distinguished from
:he original by the closest observer; they will never change colour or
decay, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used.
This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful
operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and is
guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and that Mr.
HoNvard's improvement may be within the reach of the moat econo-
mical, he has fixed the charges at the lowest sca'e possible. De-
cayed teeth stopped and rendered sound and useful in mastica-
tion.-52, Fleet-street. At home from ten till five.
