LOST AND FOUND.—Mr. Giles, the manager of

the Na►ional Provincial Bank at Ventnor,went
out for a sail with a young friend, on Wednesday
afternoon, about 4 o'clock. As his friend had been
three years in the navy, he --thought himself in
good bands ; but night came en, and they did not
return, nor could they be seen or heard of on
Thursday morning, which caused great anxiety to
their friendi. It appears that they had been driven
out to set, and were picked up by a pilot boat on
Thursday evening, but did not reach Ventnor till
midnight on Thursday.

Earl Fitzhardinge is now lying without hope of reco-
very, literally dying by inches• The noble lord is fear-
fully wasted, hating for weeks been unable to partake
of any food beyond ases' milk ; be is entirely free from
organic disease, and, indeed, is expiring from sheer ex-
haustion. _

CONSTANTINOPLE, August 2G.--Several important pro-
jects have received in a few days the sanction of the
Counm•il, and will tho►tly receive the approbation of
Ministers and be submitted to the Sultan. Among
these is the project of the Euphrates Valley Telegraph,
to which the late ev‘uts in India have given such g!eat
importance. The Council has also approved of the pro-
jected railway from Samsoun to Sivas, and consented to
allow a guarantee of 7 per cent. on the capital required.

Larking.

Co afield.
THE LATE ARCHDEACON SPOONER. —Archdeacon
Will iam Spooner was appointed to the Archdeaconry
of Coventry in 1827, and resigned it in 1851. He was
SO years of age. By Archdeacon Spooner's death tl.e
rectory of Aele, Norfolk, worth 7001. a year, and the
rectory of E,mdon, Warwickshire, worth 3001. a year,
become vacant. The rectory of Acle is in the gift of
Lard C►lthorpe.
REPRESENTATION OF OLDHAM.—On Wednesday last
a meeting of the Liberal party was held at the King's
Arms Inn, for the purpose of selecting a candidate for
the representation of the borough, rendered vacant by
the recent death of Mr. James Platt. Mr. W. J. Fox,

who was thrown out at the hit election, was unani-

inou-1y nominated, and it is believed that his success on

hia occasion is almost certain.

THE TREATY OF PEACE —On the front page of the
Journal de St Petcr3bourg of AuguMt 27, and in larger
letters than we have seen in its pages before, is this
telegraphic announcement:—" Augu't 25.—1 n
yesterday's sitting of the House of Commons, Palmerston
declared that Russia had not broken the treaty by her

procedure in Circassia." Tha Premier's declaration
evidently appears as extraordinary to the Russians as it

did to his own countrymen.
Lady Barnard, the afflicted widow of General Sir
Henry Barnard, is living in retirement at Sandgate,
where the deepest respect and interest is felt for her.
Her eldest son is with the army before Delhi, and
~he has several other children. Her ladyship is by
birth Craufurd, of the Lindsay and Balcarres family.
The University of Durham has conferred the degree
of Doctor of Laws upon Sir Samuel Martin, one of the
Barons of the Exchequer.

PRESERVATION OF LIFE FROM SHlPWRECK.—Yester-
day a meeting of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution
was held at its house, John-street, Adelphi ; Captain
L. Perrott in the chair. The minutes of the previous
meeting having been read, the silver medal and 2/. were
voted respectively to Wm. Wedge and Jas. Turpin, com-
mission boatmen of the Coastguard at Salcombe, Devon,
and to Thos. D. Warder, boatman, in acknowledgment
of their gallant conduct in putting off in a small boat in a
heavy sea, at the imminent risk of their lives, and rescu-
ing two out of three men who were capsized from their
fishing boat od Bantham Bar, on the night of the 27th
instant. A reward of 6/. was also granted to three
Coastguard men for putting off in a small boat and
rescuing, at the imminent risk of their lives, four out of
five persons who had been in a heavy
sea capsized from
their boat off Port Rush, on the coast of Antrim, on
the 223 of July ; after they were rescued the little
boat again put off and succeeded in fringing in the cap-
sized boat. A rewardof Cl. was like sire granted to six
fishermen for rescuing, at the peril of their lives, two out
of four persons who had been cap,iz3i during a sudden
and heavy squall of wind from their boat off Ilanona.roe,
Shetland, a few weeks since. It appeared that while the
boat was fishing the wind suddenly rose to a etrong gale,
accompained by a sudden squall off the land, which cap-
sized the boat before her crew of four men were able to

take in her sail. They were plu; ged into the sea ; two
of them were happily saved by clinging to their boat,
although twice weshed from it ; two others sank to rise
no more. Much risk was incurred in the rescue of the
two men, inasmuch as they could only be approached
after the sea broke, and then quickly snatched from
their very dangerous situation. The loss of life among
the Shetland fishermen this year has been unusually
great. No doubt many of these accidents, which have
caused the greatest misery among the families of these
poor but deserving men, have been caused from the de-
fective construction of their fishing boat 4, and the unskil-
ful manner with which we fear they are too frequently ban.
died in the hour of peril. Fishermen's boats are
often of the most pi iinitive construction, and are pro-
bably now the scone in character as they were 100 or
200 years ago. Captain Ward, R.N., the inspector of
lifeboats to the institution, read a report of his recent
visit of inspection to the lifeboats of the society on the
Lancashire and on the north and south coasts of Wales.
On these occasions he is in tie habit of taking the boats
afl)at, in order to thoroughly examine them and test
their capacity for service in the hour of need. The
boa's are also regularly exercised once a quarter through-
out the year. Ile reported highly of the qualities of the
new class of lifeboats of the ivatitution, and suggested
that some of its older beats, built 20 or 30 years ago,
should be replaced. A communication was read from
the Boulogne Shipwreck and Humane Society, in the
management of which some of the English residents take
an active part, inviting the inspector of lifeboats to visit
their establishment. Their request was complied with.
Captain Ward, R.N., and Mr. Peake, the inventor of
the lifeboat of the ineeitution, were deputed to visit the
B Julogne Lifeboat Station accordingly, The proceed-
ings then closed.
