THE MANUFACTURE OF WATCHES AND CLOCKS.-
A. most interesting and instructive little work, describing briefly
but with great clear ness, the rise and progress of watch and
clock makin -, has just been published by Mr J. W. Benson, of
25, Old Bond-sty,Tht, 99, Westbourne-grove, and the City Steam
Factory, 58 00... d GO, Ludgate-hill. The book, which is profusely
illustrated ;gives a full description of the various kinds of watches
and clOrjks, with their prices, and no one should make a purchase
wit4e ,ut visiting the above establishments or consulting this truly
val" „table work. By its aid persons residing in any part of the
V nited Kingdom, India. or the Colonies, are enabled to select for
themselves the watch best adapted for their use, and have it sent
to them with perfect safety. Mr. Benson, who holds the appoint-
ment to the Prince of Wales, sends this pamphlet to any address
on receipt
.of two postage stamps, and we cannot too strongly
recommend it to the notice of the intending purchaser .

THE GALE AND THE CHANNEL ISLANDS.—JERSEY,
Tuesday.---Communications with the Channel Islands have
been again considerably interrupted during the last few

and much inconvenience to merchants, tradesmen, and
others has been cxp2rienecd as a result. The steamers fruit
France were unable to cross last Thursday, and the fact
their having on board large quantities of Christmas stock
produceitgreat inconvenience to many tradesm n, who did
not receive their supplies till much of it was of little or no
avail. The steamer Granville, from Granville, which was
due on Thursday, was not able up to yesterday afternoon to
leave port for Jersey. She had a large quantity of poultry
on board for the Christmas market, the non arrival of which
resulted in great disappointment to the consignees. As a
proof of the intensity of the gale, the mail packets for Eng-
land, which should have left here yesterday morning, were
compelled to remain in the harbour tintl this morning, a
ciretnustancd th:, like of which has not occurred fora very
long time past.

LOA DON, 7IIURSDAY, DEC. 31, 1868.

Eighteen Hundred and Sixty-Eight, the year of
grace which will expire to-night at twelve o'clock
amidst the ringing of joy-bells ushering in its succes-
sor, while it has, no doubt, been memorable in many
ways, can hardly be regretted. There have been
years, of course, within the recollection of the present
generation far more disastrous; but there have
been others also, and that very recently,
far more deserving of being borne in grateful re-
membrance. Nearly fifty years have elapsed since
the birth of our own reigning SOVERElGN—upwards
of sixty years since the birth of the neighbouring
Sovereign, the Emperor of FRANCE. Thirty years
and more have elapsed since the date of QUEEN VIC-
TORIA'S Coronation—twenty since supreme power,
first as Republican President, afterwards as despotic
Emperor, passed into the hands of NAPOLEON 111.
As reigning Sovereigns, the one Constitutional, the
other Autocratic, the monarchs of the two great
allied Powers of Western Europe are rulers not of
yesterday. Already the reign of each has been long,
as reigns go, and the reign of each, it should be
added also, has been, as reigns go, sufficiently
glorious. If, for nothing else, they must be re •
garded as having been glorious, for inasmuch as
they have been the means of knitting together in cor-
dial amity the two foremost races in modern civilisa-
tion. And they have accomplished this alliance so
securely that it has continued, through deadly war and
through
prolonged peace. The soldiers of both na-
tions have, during this interval, bled side by side,
not face to face, on the same b atlefields, here in
Europe, there in Asia, now fighting against the
Chinese, now against the Russians, storming Pekin
and bombarding Sebastopol. Better by far, how-
ever, than any such recollections is the remem-
brance now of the peaceful achievements worked
cut, not one jot less enthusiastically, togethc r, than
the warlikt, deeds associating the glory of France and
England with such heroic memories as those of the
Alma and Inkermann. The blessings of Free Trade ;
of cheap postage; of rapid steam communication ; of
electric telegraphy; and of other similar boons, secured
to the two great nations almost simultaneously, or
or at no matter what intervals, when the time came
for their accomplishment, with the most cordial co-
operation between the two peoples and the two Go-
vernments, in the beneficent labour of carrying them

ATE OF TRADE.

BELFAST, Dec. 29.—Flax—Supplies in our
markets during the past week scarcely reached the
ordinary average : demand fair, prices without
change. Yarns—Business transacted limited,
chi..lfly owing to the Christmas holidays. Trans-
actions on English and Scotch account limited ;
some orders have appeared from the Continent;
prices firm ; stocks moderate. Handloom Linens,
brown—Heavy linens and cambric handkerchiefs
are in good request; stocks small. A fair demand
exists for light linens for bleaching, and cloth for
dyeing and hollands ; stocks small, prices of the
former slightly advanced. Rather more doing in
diapers and damasks; prices without change. Power-
loom—A steady demand exists for light linens for
bleaching and heavy linens, prices very firm ; stock
small; cloth suitable for the foreign clothing trade,
and cambric handkerchiefs are in fair request ;
prices without change. An improvement in the
demand has become perceptible in diapers, and
cloth for dyeing and hollands, prices firm. Bleached
and finished Linens—Home trade is in a healthy
state ; orders to a fair amount have been placed for
delivery early next year. Although a moderate de •
wand existed for Continental account, the demand
could not be said to be active. Some orders have
been placed here on A ncrican account ; advices
from that quarter continue to be discouraging ;
prices steady, and stocks give no indication of
increase.

NARROW ESCAPE OF A RAILWAY PORTER.—Ott
Tuesday night John Bevan, a porter in the service of the
Metropolitan Railway Company stationed at the Ciouver-
street station, was standing on the footboard of a carriage
when the train started. His foot slipped, but he managed
to keep hold of the carriage, and hung on till the train
reacl4ld the King's-moss statiou. Ho was taken to the
lioyal Free Hospital, where it was found that the actual
injuries ho had received were light, although be had
sustained a severe shaking iu the course of his dangerous
journey.

TIUI CESSION OF 'GIBRALTAR.

. The Gibraltar controversy begins to be exciting.
It was first started by an acknowledged organ of the
late Ministry, and we pointed out at the time the
significant fact that the restoration of this strong-
-I,tOld should be dismissed, still more that it should be
recommended, by aConservative journal. When the
Conservatives Went out of office the discussion was
transferred to the Liberal journals, a fact which
would seem to imply that the cession is really
under deliberation at the Foreign Office, and that
Lord Clarendon, no less than Lord Stanley, desires to
sound public opinion. Recently, Admiral George
Grey has recommended the surrender of Gibraltar
on the condition of receiving Ceuta in exchange.
But several correspondents have shewn that this
bft.eebi-..--:--'11;- A.,"
writing to the Times, points out that every argument
which can be adduced for our giving up Gibraltar
would exist with a fourfold force for giving
up Ceuta. The climate of Ceuta is infinitely
worse than that of Gibraltar ; the place would be
more difficult to hold ; we should infallibly
get into a quarrel with the Moors, perhaps with the
French, did we establish ourselves in Africa. The
anchorage at Ceuta is thoroughly bad, and could be
rendered safe only by a large e-Tenditure of money.
Finally, " R. A." is one of those who cannot sacrifice
the " inseparable union of this stronghold with the
glorious annals of the past." This line of argunient
would be considered good so far as the question of
Ceuta v. Gibraltar was concerned; but to those who
think that a nation's true glory, consists not in the
victories of brute force, but in the triumph of moral
principle—who think that onr voluntary evacuation,
of Abyssinia was more glorious than our brilliant
march to Magdala----,-the consideration last-mentioned
by " R. A." will be wholly without weight.

PROPOSED CHANGES IN THE 'ROYAL MARINES.

A correspondent of the Times of Wednesday sets
forth in emphatic terms the services which the
splendid and efficient body of the marines have
rendered to the country. The superior discipline. of
the Royal Marines saved the navy in one great
mutiny, and many naval officers can bear testimony
that they have depended upon it when they were in
difficulties.. It, way well be. a matter of serious
,con-
siderationwhetherribodyof iiienlik e the R oya' 1 Marines
should be altogether dispensed with, for they are good
gunners and useful in boAt-service. Without the
support .of the marines, our sailors.might not 11,-ve
undertaken some- of those operations which have
added to the renown of our navy. The country is
Inund to see that those conditions are carried out on
which the rank and file of the marines have enlisted,
and the authorities must pay strict attention to this"
matter if they determine upon making the proposed
changes. If the reduction of the marines be carried.
into effect,. it will be necessary that each man. be
dealt with justly, and that an equitable compensation
be afforded to him for the right he may have
acquired to a pension, however short or long his
service may have been.

A PILOT BOAT RUN DOWN.

SOUTHA3IPTON, Saturday.
A fatal collision occurred in the Channel last
night, as the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Syria
was on her way to Southampton from Gibralt.ir. At
6.40 p.m the Syra stopped off Durstone Point, and
took a pilot on board ; at 7.15 she ported her helm
to another pilot cutter, which was on her port bow,
the cutter being on the starboard tack. 'When the
cutter was close to the steamer on the port bow she
backed, and seeing that a collision was inevitable,
the engines were stopped. The cutter struck the
steamer on the port side, the port paddle wheel
going over her, and she sank immediately. A boat
was lowered, which pulled round the fragments of
the wreck, but no signs of a human being could be
seen ; the boat returned to the Syria, and finding
that any further search was useless, she proceeded
on her voyage at 8 5 p.m. The Syria was at the
time steering E.N.E., wind E.N.E.• right ahead.
The cutter was a Cowes pilot-boat, No. 43, and
the pilot in charge of the Syria, James Andrews, is
the uncle of the unfortunate pilot on board the ill
fated vessel. It is supposed that there were four
persons on board, all of whom have, of course, lost
their lives.
