POLICE INTELLIGENCE-(111118 DAY.)

2HE NAV I-.

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.

AN OFFICER IN THE ARMY AND A COMMISSION AGENT
CHARGED WITH DRUNKENNESS AND ASSAULTING A
PROFESSOR OF DANCING.-Mr. Francis Cole, 13, Conholt-
terrace, Brixton, commission agent, and Mr. llugh Neville,
138, Tatchbrook-street, captain in her Majesty's 2d Foot,
were charged with being drunk and creating a disturbance
at the Crown and Two Chairmen, Dean-street ; and Cole
was further charged with assaulting Mr. John Caldwell,
professor of dancing. •

The following circular has been issued from the
Admiralty dated Dee.lo :
"My Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty are of opi-
nion that it is desirable that the defects of the fleet should, as
far as possible, be made good by the artificers' of the fleet ;
and their Lordships thereore direct that when repairs arc
necessary requiring superior mechanical skill, and which
cannot be satisfactorily performed by the carpenters' crew,
blacksmiths, and ship armourers, the same shall be executed,
when practicable, by the assistant-engineers of the fleet.
" My Lords are further pleased to direct that when assis-
tant-engineers are thus employed in actual manual labour,
upon work unconnected with their own ship, they shall be
allowed increased check-money at the undermentioned
rates, which are to be charged tot the ship under repair in
the usual way, viz. :—First-class assistant-engineers, Gs.
per diem ; second-class assistant-engineers, 58. per diem ;
third-class assistant-engineers, 4s. per diem of 10 working
hours.
" When employed during a part of the day a propor-
tionate allowance at the above rates to be paid.
"By command of their Lordships,
"C. PAGET."

Mr. John Caldwell, professor of dancing, Dean-street,
Soho, said the defendants wore in an upper room in his
house, and came down to the bar with two females. The
females being disorderly they were turned out. The de-
fendant Cole then (addressing Mrs. Caldwell, his wife)
asked if she was his (Mr. Caldwell's) " woman." He told
them immediately to leave his house, and Cole then pulled
off his coat and gave him a tremendous blow on the mouth
with his fist. They were both drunk.

Cole said ho was forced out of the house. lie had asked
Mrs. Caldwell:what had offended her, and Mr. Caldwell was
asleep at the time.

The screw frigate Galatea, 26, 800-horse power
(nominal), arrived at Chatham yesterday afternoon
from Woolwich, from which port she had steamed,
and was immediately taken into the second dock
to be rigged and completed for the steam reserve in
the Medway.
Admiralty orders have been received at Chatham
for the North Star, one of the old Arctic discovery
ships, which was used in the fruitless searches after
Sir John Franklin, to be removed into one of the
docks at that establishment and taken to pieces, it
having been found that, owing to the work in which
she was engaged. she is unfitted for further service.
The North Star will be taken into the dock now
occupied by the Rattlesnake, 26, as soon as that old
frigate has been broken up.
The screw corvette Charybdis, 21, which has been
fitted at Chatham for the steam reserve, commenced
taking her guns on board yesterday; Her armament
is to be a very heavy one, and will consist of 20 8-
inch guns, each of 60 cwt., and 9 feet long, which
will be disposel on the upper deck, and one 68-
pounder pivot gun of 95 cwt., and 10 feet long.
The Mersey, 40, screw, Capt. Caldwell, C. 8., and
the Fawn, 17, screw, Com. Cator, both arrived at
Spithf ad yesterday from Portland.
The Firebrand, 6, paddle, Com. Bruce, steamed
into Portsmouth harbour yesterday from Spithead,
to make good defects in hull and machinery.
The Urgent, screw troopship, Corn. Hire, is still
detained at Spithead. She is expected to convey
detachments to Kingstown, from Spithead, on her
way to China.
The Arcona screw corvette (Prussian), Captain
Sundewald, is expected to arrive at Spithead this
morning from Dantsic ; an electric message havinc,
been received from Captain Sundewald from thee
Downs to that effect.

T urvey, 208 C, said the defendants were both drunk,
He saw Cele strike Mr. Caldwell, and he assisted in putting
Neville out.

Mr. Bingham said the defendants, at their time of life,
wearing as they did decent coats, and from their position,
ought to know that every man's house was his castle, and
if he had got a disagreeable customer he had a right to put
him out. In fact, if he did not do so he might be fined for
not keeping his house in order. If persons are disorderly
they must be restrained. He should fine Cole 40s. or 14
days, and Neville ss. for being drunk.
The fines were paid.

TYPE SCOTTISH ANTIQUARIAN
_MUSEUM.
(From the Edinburgh Courant:)
On Friday night a conversazione was held by the
Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, for the purpose
of inaugurating the National Antiquarian Museum
in the building of the Royal Institution. The invi-
tations were responded to by a numerous and
fashionable assemblage of ladies and gentlemen,
among whom were—Lord Neaves. Lord Deas, Sir
J. G. Baird, Sir John Melville Hon. B. F. Prim-
rose, Lady Menzies, Miss Sinclair and Miss Cathe-
rine Sinclair; Professors Christison, Simpson, Leo,
Lyon Play fair, Fra.ser,„Shank More, Miller, Balfour,
Allman, Fuller (Aberdeen), Mr. Robert Chambers,
Mr. Cosmo:lnnes' Vice-Admiral W. J. H. Johnston,
Major-General Robeitson, &c. &c.
The company filled to overflowing the library
hall of the Royal Society on the west side of the
building, where an inaugural lecture was delivered
by LOrd Neaves. Before proceeding with his sub-
ject his lordship begged to thank the ladies and
gentlemen present, in name of the Antiquarian
Society and its office-bearers, for the honour of their
presence at the opening of the new rooms of the
museum, and expressed a hope that they would
have many such pleasant meetings on future occa-
sions. (Applause.)
Lord NEAVES then delivered an able and inte-
resting address, from which we make a few extracts.
Antiquarian studies, he said, may be prosecuted in
various ways ; as a mere amusement or pastime, as
a gratification to the taste and imagination, or as a
philosophical science for the ascertainment of im-
portant truths. In all of these views they are a
valuable resource. They abound with topics full of
curiosity and entertainment. They reveal,
particularly in the departments of architec-
ture and the other arts, a rich store of objects and
ideas replete with beauty and grandeur, and
'they afford important illustrations for the study of
history, particularly its most important branch, the
history of civilisation. After remarking on the
great interest and importance of various depart-
ments of antiquarian is march, Lord Neaves went on
to say—l may best follow up these remarks by
giving some account of the museum which has been
formed by our own society. I cannot, however,
proceed to do so without mentioning the debt of
gratitude which we owe to her Majesty's Govern-
ment for the magnificent manner in which they
have supplied us with accommodation in this build-
ing, and have also contributed to maintain the
staff necessary for carrying out the society's
objects: Their liberality in this respect, as well as
the liberality of the Board of Trustees, to whom
the detail of the arrangements was committed,
certainly lays upon us an obligation to take care
that everything is done on our part which can pro-
mote the diffusion and improvement of antiquarian
science. After some observations on the mode of
classification adopted in the museum, his lordship
entered into some detail of the objects of more
general interest which it contained. In our mis-
cellaneous collection, he said, we have many things
that would repay attention, to which I can only
allude in a cursory way. We have here the branks,
an ancient Scottish instrument made of iron, and
fastened upon the head, for the purpose of serving,
as our catalogue tells us, in somewhat satirical
phraseology, " as a corrector of incorrigible scolds."
We have here, too, one of the Highland purse-
clasps referred to in " Rob Roy," with pistols con•
coaled, so that any stranger attempting to open
it would be shot through the hands. We have
the thumbikins, a well-known Scotch instrument
of torture, much used against the Cove-
nanters, and of which, perhaps, one of the last
victims was Principal Carstairs, who after the Re-
volution got a present from the Privy Council of
the particular thumb-screw, the pressure of which
he resisted with so much courage, and which, when
he tried it, King William declared would extort
from him any secret he possessed. We haveanother
Scottish instrument of a penal kind in the maiden,
that " dark ladye," as Coleridge might have called
her, who bestowed her fatal caresses on some of the
noblest and best men that Scotland ever produced,
and who may be said to be grandmother or grand-
aunt of that sainted female the French guillotine,
who, somewhat in the same way, did so much more
fearful and extensive execution. We have an im-
partial collection of relies and memorials, on both
sides of the leading political and polemical ques-
tions. We have abundance of Roman Catholic re-
mains, not forgetting the beautiful old bell of Kil-
michael, Glassrie. We have John Knox's pulpit
from St. Giles's Church ; and we have what tradi-
tion has called Jenny Geddes's stool, which she
hurled at the Dean of St. Giles's, on his trying to
read the service-book, but as to which it is but fair
to say that, by another report, the lady is repre-
sented to have become somewhat of a malignant,
and to have burnt her stool out of joy at Charles
the Second's restoration. We have copies of the
covenant signed by Montrose when he began his
career as Covenanter; and the solemn league and
covenant, with the subscription of Archbishop
Leighton ; and we have one of the banners of the
covenant, borne by the Covenanters at the battle of
Bothwell Brig. We have the blue ribbon `worn by
Prince Charles as a Knight of the Garter when in
Scotland in 1745 ; and we have a ring given to him
by Flora Macdonald at parting with her: After
adverting to the desirableness of having some better
collection of the old Scotch dresses, and suggesting
that those at least who had duplicates of such
curiosities should send them to the museum, Lord
Neaves noticed the addition made to the Egyptian
antiquities by the valuable relics from Thebes,
recently contributed by Mr. Rhind, and which were
dug out under his personal superintendence, during
a residence of two winters in the country. Mr.
Rhind, besides that magnificent gift, had given
them, in the general arrangement of the museum,
the useful aid of his personal advice and assistance,
and of the experience he has derived from an ac-
quaintance with the best museums in Europe. The
learned lord concluded by commending the pursuits
of antiquarian science to those of his auditors not
already members of the society. He said—l am
aware that there may be bitter feuds about anti-
quarian controversy, and that people who wish to
quarrel may do so about an ancient name or monu-
ment, a picture, or a locality, as well as about any
topic of the day ; but at least the subjects of such
dissensions are beyond the reach of evil conse-
quences, and the disputants themselves will pro-
bably soon recover from their asperities. The topics
on which antiquaries agree are, luckily, still mere
numerous than those on which they differ; and the
study, in its general effect, must be considered as
eminently conducive to placidity of mind, and to
the enlargement of the faculties, by extending our
sympathies, and exciting our interests in the his-
tory of the human race in all times, and in all its
differentraspects. (The lecture was listened to with
evident interest, and was followed with cordial
applause.)
Mr. ROBERT CHAMBERS moved " That the thanks
of the meeting and of the Antiquarian Society be
tendered to Lord Neaves for his learned and elo-
quent address"—(cheers)—and remarked that he
never had the pleasure of hearing his lordship lec-
ture on scientific or literary subjects without at the
same time experiencing a feeling of reget that, so
much of his time and attention being necessarily
taken up with the duties of his dignified profession,
such intellectual treats as they had this evening
enjoyed were so seldom bestowed upon the com-
munity.
The company then passed. to the library of the
Antiquarian Society, where tea and coffee wore
served, and afterwards spent some time in examin-
ing the collection of antiquities in the museum.

' N 0.6 transport, the Sir Wm. Peel, has arrived
at the Arsenal pier, Woolwich, and has just com-
menced shipping a heavy battery of siege guns and
war materials for China. She is berthed stern to
stem with the Adelaide, No. 5, under the hydraulic
cranes, and has been fitted with care for the ser-
vice, particular attention having been paid to her
ventilation, as she is intended to be used, on her
arrival in China, occasionally as a transport for
troops and an hospital ship. The engineer officers
of the dockyard yesterday made a minute inspec-
tion of her engines and machinery, which were
pronounced in first-rate working condition. The
Adelaide and the Sir William Peel will embark
about 4,000 tons. The Thunder, the Powerful, tho
Melbourne, and the Mauritius, Nos. 1,2, 3, and 4
transports, in the same service, have already
shipped full cargoes of the same description. Both
ships, although exceeding 2,000 tons each, are ex-
pected to be ready for sea during the first week in
January. The facilities of the hydraulic machi-
nery, the patent shot slides and tramways, extend-
ing to the port-holes and gangways of the ships,
renders' the task of shipment extraordinarily expe-
ditious and comparatively light to the former
method, even during the embarkation for the Rus-
sian war, since which many important improve-
ments have been introduced.'

A detachment of Reyal Marine Light Infantry
was yesterday ordered by the Lords of the Admi-
ralty to be in readiness at Woolwich for service on
board her Majesty's steam sloop Hecate, about to
be commissioned, it is expected—although not
officially announced—for the River Plate, to replace
the Weser, pronounced unsafe for the voyage, and
dangerous to the safety of the officers and crew.
The following appointments have been made at
the Admiralty :—Wm. l'attullo, acting assistant-
surgeon, to the Queen ; J. Davenport, acting first-
class assistant-engineer for temporary servic, addi-
tional, to the Wellington, for service in the Lark ;
H. Perry, paymaster, to the Victory; and D. I'.
Waugh, clerk, to be secretary's clerk, to the Excel-
lent.

METROPOLITAN CATTLE MARKET.

Only a limited supply of beasts was on offer in to-day's
market. Primo breeds were in fair request, at full quota-
tions ; otherwise, the beef trade was in a sluggish state, at
Monday's currency. Prime sheep were very scarce, and in
demand, at full prices. Long-wools commanded very little
attention. The few calves in the market were disposed of
without difficulty, at extreme rates. In pigs, only a limited
amount of business was transacted, and much cows wero
very dull.

SUBMARINE TELEGRAPH BETWEEN LIVERPOOL
AND BIRKENHEAD.—The cable was laid yesterday (Wed-
nesday) afternoon across the Mersey, between the landing•
stage at Liverpool and the Woodside ferry. The operation
lasted 10 minutes, and the cable was worked successfully
during the remaining part of the day. The want of such
communication between the two sides of the river has of
late been very much felt, and much inconvenience had been
suffered in consequence during the prevalone: of the lato
foggy weather.
