ROYAL ADELAIDE GALLERY.

A daily increasing attendance of visitors at this fa-
vourite and valuable institution bears testimony to the
excellence of the new management. On Saturday the
principal objects of attention were the lectures upon
Phillip's Fire Annihilator and Kollman's Railway Im-
provements ; both inventions of which the importance
to society far exceeds the great interest which they
excite as matters of curious and attractive exhibition.
The nature and the powers of the " Fire Annihilator"
have already been adequately explained in the columns
of The Sun, and it is painful, in the midst of constantly
recurring conflagrations and miserable loss of life, to
witness the apathy with which this powerful means of
preventing both appears to be disregarded. There is no
presumption in asserting that the scientific principles of
Mr. Phillip's Fire Annihilator are irrefragable in theory,
and that their practical application is easy and inexpen-
sive, and their success, as demonstrated in the experi-
ment, complete and indubitable. If the benevolent per-
sons who exert themselves to discover and encourage
contrivances for saving life from fire would turn their
attention to the Annihilator, there wouldlsoon be
an absolute end to metropolitan " fires," and the
burning of ships at sea. It is not so easy to
give a positive and certain opinion as to the
perfection of Mr. Kollman's Railway Locomotive
and Carriage Improvements," for daily experience in
the Parliamentary Committees makes it but too evident
that the highest theoretical knowlege may be mistaken,
and the most exquisite working models may deceive in
railway engineering, of which nothing can be certainly
relied on that has not been amply proved upon a large
scale of actual practice. In making this cautionary ob-
servation, there is no intention to cast an ungenerous
doubt upon a series of inventions which unquestionably
display great mechanical ingenuity, originality, and
scientific attainments. It is certainly most, interesting,

as well as amusing, to see the model trains traverse the
miniature railroad in the gallery, with all the bustle,
fume, and speed of a Birmingham express, and ascend,
unretarded, up inclinations of one in seventeen. But
our space would not allow us to detail all the advantages
which, with apparently good reas,n, are expected from
the invention, and permits no more than to direct atten-
tion to a most curious and pleasing exhibition. The
other lectures and entertainments in the Gallery were
of the usual attractive character. Major Beniewski
continues to lecture with increased popularity upon his
admirable system of phrenotypics, and Mr. Scott's ex-
planations of the electrical eels should be carefully at-
tended to by every admirer of nature's wonders who
visits this Institution. The Infant Sappho, after a long
and prosperous tour in the provinces, will make her re-
appearance here this evening, and her return will gra-
tify her old admirers and all who can appreciate true
melodic genius, unparalleled in precocity and scope sine
the infancy of Mozart. There will be no small interest in
observing what change or improvement two or three
years have effected i i her voice and wonderful faculties.

LITERATURE.
MEMOIRS OF SOPHIA DOROTHEA, CON-
SORT OF GEORGE I.
This work is chiefly composed from the secret
archives of Hanover, Brunswick, Berlin, and Vienna,
and contains letters and other decuments published from
the originals. The more interesting portions of it re-
late to the death of the Count Konigsmark, and the
treatment of the wife of George I. The general belief
is that this princess was imprisoned in a fortress under
the most mysterious circumstances—that some horrible
crime on her part had led to this severity—and that her
husband, who was Crown Prince of Hanover, and during
her imprisonment, or rather seclusion, mounted the
throne of England, had shown towards her a degree of
cruelty and vindictive vengeance which rendered him
unworthy of the high station to which he was elevated
by the British Parliament. These are all exaggerations,
and the accounts furnished by the author, who leans to
the side of the Princess, leave little doubt on the subject.
The Court of Hanover at that time was the most cor-
rupt in Europe (we know not what it is now). George
the First had many mistresses, but, like George the
Fourth, he would make no allowances for indiscretions
committed by his wife; she was like Queen Caroline in-
discreet; :'advantage was taken of her fully, or perhaps
crimes, a " green bag" invest; gation was instituted, and
the unfortunate culprit was found guilty and confined to
the Castle of Ahlden. Her confinement., 'however, was
not solitary. She was permitted to invite the civil and
military authorities of the place, and the gentlemen in
the neighbourhood. She had a large retinue of at-
tendants and servants, as many as fourteen footmen, a
proportionate number of females, three cooks, &c.,
but was chisel), watched, and allowed little com
munication with her father's family. But even her
father had cast her off, and a general belief at the time
prevailed that she was a woman of irregular habits, and
that her separation from her husband had been brought
on by her own conduct. The author, however, attributes
all her misfortunes to the changeable disposition of her
husband, and the intrigues of his mistresses, and espe-
cially to the Countess Platen, who transmitted to her a
forged letter, as coming from Count Konigsmark, re-
questing her permission to visit her i❑ her private apart-
ments. The request was granted ; yet, after they both
discovered the letter to be a forgery, they remained
together for some hours, and thereby gave the Countess
the opportunity which she wanted, of adducing this long
interview as a proof of their criminal intercourse. The
part of the palace in which she resided was surrounded
with armed men, for the purpose of seizing the Count ;
he had to make his escape, a scuffle ensued, and he fell
mortally wounded, his last words being" Spare the in-
nocent Princess." This tragic scene is thus described .
" On leaving the Princess, the forged letter had presented
itself to his mind as a snare that could not have been em-
ployed without a purpose ; that it was the production of an
enemy there could be but little question, and he need not
have hesitated long before he must have been satisfied who
that enemy was. When he ascertained that the doors through
which he had hitherto proceeded out of the palace from the
Princess's apartments were locked, he began to fear he was
enclosed in a trap. He walked cautiously along, and on the
first rush of the trabants his sword was out of its scabbard
before they could lay hold of him.
"Urged on by the Countess, and inflamed by the liquor
they had drunk, the men attacked him furiously with their
weapons. A most desperate conflict ensued, the result of
which might have been doubtful—for the Count had in-
flicted several severe wounds on his assailants—had not the
blade of his sword snapped in two. He had endeavoured to
give the alarm, but his cries were soon stopped; and, when
his weapon became unserviceable, he was easily secured and
carried into the adjoining room. Here the alarmed soldiers
discovered that the person they had thus arrested was so
severely wounded he could not stand upright. He had just
strength to murmur an entreaty to spare the innocent Prin-
ces,' though they murdered him, when he fell into a swoon as
they were placing him on the floor.
" The Countess made her appearance directly the wounded
man had been brought out of the hall, and the first object
that met his eyes on recovering; consciousness, was the face
of his malignant enemy bending over him with triumphant
malice expressed in every feature. He rallied all his re-
maining strength to denounce her as the infamous wretch
she was, but his mouth was stopped by the foot of his as-
sassin, who pretended she had slipped in his blood, barba-
rously trod on his wounded face. Life was ebbing fast—too
fast either to resent or notice the indignity, and in a few
seconds the murdered man breathed his last."
This unfortunate result sealed the fate of the Prin-
cess. She was confined for thirty years as a state pri-
soner, and died in the fortress of Ahlden on the 15th of
November, 1726, George the First did not long survive
her, for he expired at Osnabruck in the month of June
the following year. The work furnishes a sad picture
of the state of morals at the Courts of England and
Hanover during the period of which it treats.

REPORTED LOSS of the APOLLO.
In the brief notice on Saturday of the supposed loss of this
vessel, she is said to have been bound from Quebec, instead of
Halifax. In addition to the particulars already given, the follow.
ing paragraph from the Courier, of St. John's, Newfoundland, of
June 14th, received at Lloyd's, will be perused with interest
LATEST FROM NEWFOUNDLAND.--REPOREED WRECK OF A MAN-

OF. WA R.
"The royal mail steamer North America, Captain Meagher, ar-
rived yesterday from St. John's, Newfoundland, which port she
left on Saturday evening, and stopped at Sydney, Cape Breton, to
land and receive mails. The steam.frigate Vesuvius, with Lieu.
tenant. General the Earl of Cathcart. the recently.appointed Com-
mander of the forces in Canada on board, arrived.
" In the Morning Post of the 7th inst., it is stated that a ru-
mour had been abroad the day previous, at St. John's, that a vessel
had been lost at St. Shot's, and sixty men had perished. It was
said to be either the frigate Spartan, or the transport Apollo, but
they have not been able to trace the report to any authentic source."

[The Spartan arrived at Quebec on the 4th of June. The Apollo
sailed from Halifax on the Ist inst. for Quebec.]

WINDSOR, SUNDAY EVENING.—This afternoon,
between five and six o'clock, a person, in the garb of a sailor, was
discovered suspended (by means of his handkerchief tied round his
neck) to the rails in the Long-walk, about a quarter of a mile from
the Castle, by Mr. Lima, of Brunswick-terrace. His feet were
resting upon the ground, and he appeared to the numerous passers-
by, to be kneeling and looking into the Sheet-street-road. Mr.
Lima, and Mr Tatner, of Adelaide-square, who was on the spot,
lost no time in cutting him down and sending for the aid of the
police, who forthwith conveyed him on a plank to the gaol
when Mr. Holderness and Mr. Eton, surgeons, were immediately,
in attendance. The poor man, who was black in the face, and
for a long time, to all appearance, dead, was fortunately restored to
life after half an hour's persevering exertions on the part of the
medical men. His name is Jackin, and it appeared, from docu-
ments found upon him, that he has just been discharged from the
Dreadnought hospital ship by his own request. No money was
found upon him, and, according to his own statement, want and
poverty drove him to attempt self-destruction. He was removed
this evening, by order of the authorities of the borough, to the
Windsor Union Workhouse, to be taken care of. He ap-
peared to be between thirty and forty years of age, and an able-
bedied seaman.

FINSBURY SOCIETY Scnoor.s.—Last week the 53d
anniversary dinner of this popular institution took place at the
Canonbury House, Islington, when a highly respectable party of
gentlemen partook of a handsome entertainment; William
Hunter, Esq., Alderman and Sheriff, in the chair ; and was sup-
ported by R. L. Jones, Esq., W. Girdler, Esq., H. Lee, Esq., J. B.
Priestman, Esq., J. Dale, Esq., J. Fullerton, Esq., the Rev. Mr.
Gleadall, and the churchwardens of St. Luke's. After the usual
loyal toasts the Chairman gave the health of George Byng, M. P.,
which was received with much respect. Its the course of the
evening the children were introduced, amid great applause; and
certainly their neat dress and intellectual appearance was highly
calculated to create that feeling. The Rev. Mr. Gleadall, in a
very appropriate speech, addressed the children, pointed out the
many advantages they possessed, and hoping that the geod instruc-
tions they now received would be carried out by them into after
life ; he also passed a well.meritcd encomium upon Mr.
Barre, the highly respected master. The healths of the
treasurer, clergy, committee, stewards, churchwardens of St. Luke,
and honorary secretary, were afterwards given and severally re-
sponded to, after which the party broke up, much delighted with
the proceedings of the evening.
FALL FROM A HousE-Top.—On Friday morning,
soon after two o'clock, Mr. Richard Godfrey, the son of Mrs.
Godfrey, of New-street, Lambeth, fell from the roof of the house
into the back yard, when in pursuit of two men who were supposed
to be thieves. Mrs. Godfrey had been awakened by a noise on the
roof of the house, and roused her son and an apprentice, and the
former got on the roof through the trap-door. He saw two men
there, who retreated into the next house, which Was empty, and in
endeavouring to follow them his foot slipped, and he fell to the
ground from a height of nearly forty feet. His arm and right leg
were broken, and he was otherwise much injured.
Deputations from the Governors of the North Ame-
rican provinces were received on Saturday at the Colo-
nial Office.

MARKET INTELLIGENC:E.
(From the London New Price Current of June an.)
SUGAR -.The market for all kinds of Sugar, subject to'he 14,
per cwt duty, presented a tranquil appearance. British Pkflta.
lion was purchased very sparingly for the scale and refit 'ing
purposes, the quantity disposed of amounting to only 110 Wes
and tierces; prices closed 6d to Is per cwt lower for mid to
fine yellow sorts, but in the value of other kinds scarcely auy
variation is perceptible at present.
R EFINED. —To-day the marked for home trade goods was
quiet, and prices not so firm ; brown grocery lumps selling at
725, and standard lumps 73s per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar
is held for 40s to 41s per cwt, but not much business done,
MA URITIUS. —At public sale only 485 bags were offered of
inferior parcels, which sold upon the following terms ; viz., low
soft yellow at 42s 6d to 43s 6d, and low foxy brown 38s.
EAST INDIA.—This afternoon at public sale 1,901 bags of
Bengal Sugar were brought forward, and the chief part sold at
about the former value, but there was a slackness in the bid-
dings; fine white brought 575, good 53s 6d to 545, middling
52s to 535, damp 51s to 56s 6d; sugar drainage damaged 495,
mid sound brown 455, and damp and washed 43s to 44s per ewt.
FOREIGN.—AII descriptions of Foreign Sugar have met
with much attention from exporters during the week : our re-
finers working under bond are not yet supplied ; a further ad-
vance in prices has taken place.
Alote SSES. —There has been a falling off in the demand for
West India this week ; but the supply being small, merchants
are enabled to obtain full rates,
SPIRITS. —There has been a lively demand for Jamaica Ram
this week, and an advance in prices of Id to 2d per gallon has
taken place ; nearly the whole on offer has been bought up.
Leeward Island has been in excellent request, and stiffer rates
have again been paid. Demerara is wanted: and prices
are still on the rise. Calcutta has been much
quired for, but business has been checked by the unwillingness
of holders to sell. In Brandy there has been less business
done, prices are not so firm. Geneva has been in excellent
request for export at is 6id to is 9d, and fine fit for duty is
fetching 2s 2d to 2s 9d. The price of English Corn Spirits is
still 108 2d per gallon nett cash.
COFFEE.—This afternoon 603 bags of Native Ceylon were
sold ; the price commenced at 48s 6d for good ordinary pale
Native, advanced as the sale proceeded to 49s 6d, and finished
at 50s to 50s 6d; sea damaged went at 44s 6tl to 475, and in-
ferior 33s to 395.

COCOA.--1 HS afternoon at public sale I I bags of Grenada
Cocoa were sold at 43s 6d for good bright red.
FRUlT.—Prices are net so firm for Currants, still the demand
is good. In Raisins several purchases have been made at firm
rates.

TEA.—To-day several purchases were made in Congou of
common sound quality at 90 to 10d cash. For Pouchong of
the lower sorts there is a good export demand at 5d to 64d
per lb.

RICE.—To-day Bengal Rice was much sought after, bat
higher rates being asked checked business, and 2,140 bags at
auction were only sold at rather higher prices; good middling
white but rather dusty, fetching 12s 6d, sea damaged, first
class 11s 6d to 12s, second class sea damaged and repacked
lOs to lis per cwt—full market rates were offered for the
whole.

SPlCES.—Pimento has met with ready purchasers upon
former terms. For Nutmegs the market has a firm appear-
ance, and at previous rates several parcels have been sold pri-
vately. Ginger is still in a dull state, and prices
are drooping. Black Pepper has sustained the former
value. In Mace the operations are upon a more
extended scale, but not at higher rates. In Cinnamon of in-
ferior and coarse quality there has been scarcely any business
transacted, although prices rule very low, but in good and fins
sorts sales to a fair extent have been made at the rates of the
last quarterly sales. In Cassia Lignea little business has been
transacted this week. Cloves have been purchased with
caution.

SA LT PET RE. To- day 1,001 bags of Calcutta were offered
at public sale, middling grey fair crystal 7i per cent. refrac-
tion was sold at 24s 6d to 25s per cwt, which is a shade higher,
but good strong grey 2 per cent refraction was taken in at
26s 6d, unrefracted stained with Indigo at 25s to 25s 6d, 3 per
cent ditto 25s 6d, which is the former worth.
OiLs.—Of Southern Oil 240 tuns were sold ; fine pale, and
very sweet free from foot went at 26/ to 281 ss, and middling
to good 271 to 27/10s per tun, but the chief part sold at 281 to
28155. Seal is less wanted, and prices have assumed a down-
ward tendency. Cod is held 31/ to 31/ 10s, but only a limited
business has been transacted. Sperm has declined in value :
55 tons at auction went at 821 for British of first quality, and
at 791 Iss to 801 per ton for second sort. For Olive further re-
duced rates have been taken. Palm in excellent request, and
fine fetched 26s 6d to 27s per cwt. With Cocoa Nut the market
is still scantily supplied, and the best Ceylon brought 28s to
28s 6d. For Linseed Oil lower rates have been accepted.
Rape Oil is little wanted; Pale is %North 36s 6d to 375, and
brown 35s 6d to 36s per cwt.
