IUNN'S FINE AIWA ND LAMP OIL.
The excessively high price of Spdrm Oil is fast causing
the elegant Table and other Lamps, made on the Argand prin-
ciple, to be lad aside. The ARGAND LAMP OIL is con-
fidently offered to the public as a substitute for Sperm Oil, it
burns with a clear bright flame, without smoke or smell, does
not obstruct the tubes of the lamps more than the best Sperm
Oil, with the advantage that it does not chill with the cold ;
it consumes much slower than Sperm or other Oils, conse-
quently is little more than one-third the expense of Sperm Oil,
and for Solar Lamps has been proved, by experience, to be
cheaper than common Oil, without the offensive smell.
Half a gallon or upwards will be sent to any part of Town,
as a trial of the advantage and economy of using the Argand
Lamp Oil. •

tion, is to be had only at the above Warehouse.

MONEY-TRADM-COMIYZERCE.

From the report of the Committee fur
Hospital, it appears that the in-door patients, during the
past year, have amounted to 1,027, and the out-patients
to 6,3231., showing the total of relief returns to have

6,000 acres liable to it; and though frequent interviews
had taken place with Lord Stanley, no removal of it had
yet been made.

ALARMING STEAM-BOAT
COLLISION.

On Tuesday evening, about eight o'clock, there was a
colrmion of two steam-vessels, and the screams and
shouts of the passengers were distinctly heard on all
parts of the river near Greenwich, and a number of
tio3ts were rowed towards the spot, when it was ascer-
tained that the Nymph, belonging to the old Woolwich
Company, had run into the Aurora, a Richmond steam-
holt, employed during the holidays in carrying passengers
between Greenwich and London. The Aurora had just
lef. Greenwich with 200 passengers on board for London,
'and was proceeding across the stream, when the Nymph,
whi h was on her way to Greenwich, and was coming
Cev,v.i at lull speed, with a strong ebb tide running at the
tint went stein on into her, and carried away the lar-
balrd paddle-box, which was knocked to pieces, and the
wlnrl smashed. '1 he steam-pipe was also broken and the
engines soon crippled, besides other damage done to the
hull of the vessel. The excitement anti alarm which took
am Mg the passengers was frightful, and many were
about to jump overboard but were reArained by the master
anal crow. The first boat which came alongide was a
police galley, rowed by Geo. Webb, a Thames police in-
ypu and his boat's crew, who found the steamers locked
to., etie r ; the Aurora, appeared a complete wreck. The
bowsprit of the Nymph was locked in the Aurora's fun-
nel, mut Webb directed the master of the former vessel
to back his engines astern, which was done, and they
were soon released from each other. The passengers
at this time were calling out for boats, and declared the
vesel was sinking, and a number of females were faint-
ing tot the decks,-and others screaming loudly. Many
of them attempted to jump into the police galley, and if
Webb had not ordered his men to shove off, the boat
no 11,1 have been swamped in an instant. Some skill
wa; then necessary to prevent the Aurora from getting
ag.•ound in the (lark on an ebb tide, and Inspector Webb
assisted in getting her close in to the north shore, just
Lelow the Isle of Dogs, where she dropped her anchor,
and brought up. Another steamer had been previously
sent for to take the passengers out, and the call was an-
rwered most promptly by the Waterman steamer No. 3,,
ab.att to leave the Watermen's Pier for Woolwich. A
onununieation was opened by a platform from boat to
lost, and the affrighted passengers, men, women, and
children, were relieved from the perils that awaited them,
taken over to Greenwich, and transferred to Waterman
No. 5, John llawkes master, and conveyed to London.

UNION-HALL.

Mary White was charged with robbing Ann Wilson, her sister.
The complainant stated that she was a married woman, and
the prisoner, who was her sister, had been for some time residing
with her. About a week ago, during her temporary absence
from home, the prisoner absconded, taking with her a quantity
of wearing apparel belonging to witness, whose drawers and
boxes were ransacked of nearly all they contained. Com-
plainant, however, would have put up with the loss, severe
as it was to a poor woman like her, rather than proceed
against so near a relative, if it had not been for the fact of her
husband accompanying the prisoner in her flight ; and un-
natural as it may appear, they were found living together as
man and wife. '1 he prisoner denied stealing the articles,, but
she did not utter a word with respect to the absconding with
her sister's husband.—She was remanded.

GREAT MARLOW AND MELCOMBE REGIS.

The Committee met this morning at 11.
The proceedings commenced with an argument by Mr.
Serjeant WItANGIIAM against the vote of Charles Gibbons, to
which he had objected on the part of the petitioners.
The Committee, after a long deliberation, decided that the
vote was a good one.
The sitting Members still continue in a majority of one.

GRATITUDE OF A FRENCH LADY.—Mademoiselle
de la Champagne, a French lady of property, who recently died
in the town of Avranches, in Normandy, bequeathed 1,200/.
to the British nation, in grateful acknowledgement of the libe-
rality and kindness which she had experienced from the Go-
vernment and people of England during her residence there as
an emigrant, at the time of the Revolution. The Mayor of
Avranches solicited permission of Sir Robert Peel for the ap-
plication of the money towards building a ward in the Town
Hospital, to be appropriated to the relief of British sailors
shipwrecked on the coast, or of other destitute English persons.
The Premier cozsented, and the Mayor has presented to the
Minister a work recently published by Dr. James Hairby, in
English, entitled " Historical and Descriptive Sketches of
Avranches and its Vicinity," emblazoned with the civic arms.
This spirit we should ever wish to see cultivated by both nations.
On the 22d ult. there was a sudden ftill of snow at

mained white for the whole day.
CANTERBURY UNION BANIC-011 Monday and
Tuesday the examination of the partners in this bank took
place at Canterbury, and the information adduced, relative to
the consignment of all the personal property of Mr. 1131 dock,
one of the partners, was important. From the evidence of his
son it appeared that various heavy mortgages, consisting of
15,000/., to Messrs. Grote and Co. ; 10 0001. to Mr. Martelly ;
75,000/. to Mr. Bolton ; 8,0001. to Mr. Boddington ; and ano.ber
to Messrs. Prescott and Co. were not received upon his joining the
firm in 1836, for his use, but exclusively for his father's; and
indemnities on the occasion were offered him on execution of
the deeds thereof. These facts were afterwards,confirmed on
the asseveration of Mr. H. Kingsford. The meeting on Tues-
day was concluded by allowing the accounts to pass, but strong
remonstrance was made 'against the unsatisfactory manner in '
which the accounts and affairs had been managed.

WEST INDIA MAIL.

FALMOUTH, Aram I.—The Tagus steamer arrived this
morning, with Peninsula mails. Her dates of leaving are from
Gibraltar 24th, Cadiz 25th, Lisbon 28th, and Oporto and Vigo
39th ult. The Crane (sailing) packet, Lieut. John Hill corn:
mander, has also arrived this afternoon from Mexico, having
left Vera Cruz 15th Feb., Tampico 23d, and Havannah Bth
March. She has on freight about 635,000 dollars, all of which,
with the exccption of about 20,000, were shipped at Tampico.
There is no political news by this vessel. '1 he Republic was
quiet, • but Santa Anna was very unpopular, and not at
all likely to maintain supreme authority. The ex-
President, Bustamente, was reported to have embarked
for France. The Solway steamer had arrived at Vera
Cruz 6th February, from Havannah, and left again on the 7th
for Tampico, to collect letters in the Gulf for England, but up
to the 23d following, when the Crane sailed, she had never '
made her appearance at that port. The Crane brings no in-
formation respecting the Medina steamer, so long due, and has
only fallen in with one of the Company's vessels on her voy-
age, viz., the Forth, which had reached the Havannah
from Vera Cruz the day the Crane sailed therefrom.
The Tweed steamer was considered a missing vessel. Her
Majesty's ship Hydra brought the Jamaica mails to the
Havannah owing to some irregularity of the Royal Steam.
Packet Company, and left again the 9th following for Jamaica.
Her Majesty's ships Electra and Charybdis were at Jamaica
.lst ult., and her Majesty's ship Tweed had arrived at Havannah
Bth ult., from Vera Crus and Tampico, having on board
560,000 dollars for the Commissariat Department at Jamaica.
The Mexican Government had purchased the City of Dublin
steamer, at Vera Crus on the 11th of February for 11,500/.
The Spanish brig of war Cuba had-captured off that island on

THE NAVY.

Some incorrect accounts having obtained publicity re-
specting the ships intended to be built, we place before
our readers the true state of matters, as correctly as wo
can ascertain.

The name of Prince Albert, 90, now building at Ports-
mouth, has bean changed to Princess Royal ; and a ship
of 120 guns, to be named after his Royal Highness, is
ordered to be built at Woolwich on a plan submitted to
the Alehniralty by Mr. Lang, and under the immediate
superintendence of that gentleman, who is master-ship-
wright of Woolwich dockyard. An 80-gun ship, to be
called Hannibal, on the plan of the late Admiral Hayes,
will also be laid down at Woolwich as soon as Boscawen
is launched ; and Mr. Fincham is ordered to build a 50-
gun frigate at Chatham, to be called Raleigh.
A first-rate of 110 guns, as Queen, is ordered to be
built at Portsmouth, to be called Prince of Wales.

The following ships will be launched this year, and
orders have been received to expedite the Albion, 90, at
Plymouth, which ship will be commissioned as soon as
possible after launching, in order to test her merits
against a vessel of her class. The Albion will have an
entire battery of 68-pounders on her lower deck, and
32-pounders of 55 cwt. on her other decks—being the
heaviest broadside of any ship hitherto built :
At Woolwich—Boscawen, 70 guns ; Chichester, 50 ;
Amphion, 36. At Deptrord—Worcester, 50. At Chat-
ham—Goliath, 80 ; Cumberland, 70. At Plymouth—
Albion, 90 ; and at Pembroke—Superb, 80, will be
launched this year : besides some steamers and small
vessels.—Naval and Military Gazette.

might be done to certain parties whose interest was

mittee on the Bill (No. 1), thought the postponement of

several other places.

CANDAIIAR.

Nothing very late has been heard from Candahar beyond
the news of the tribes collecting round Suftur Jung at Dhala,
arid dissension having alveLdy, commenced among themselves
as to the plan of attack on the city. Atta Mahomed, the rebel
leader, had sent to endeavour to steal the cloak of the Prophet,
which is enshrined at Candahar, far the purpose of using it as a
banner to lead on the Moslem army against the " dogs of infi-
dels," and the shrine was consequently guarded with care.
The 10,000 men who form the force at Candahar seemed to
give great confidence to the people of the city, and General
Nott hsd expressed his intention.of receiving the enemy below
the walls. He can scarcely indeed move to any great distanee
with more than a fraction of his force—having scarcely car-
riage for 2,000.
The road is still closed between Quetta and Candahar and
Killa Abduola, in the valley of Pisheen, in the city of the re-
bels, but the Scinds and Tereenees of the valley refuse to assist
the Deoranee views against us, and have sent to this effect to
Atta Mahomed. The Pisheenees are a quiet industrious
people, and although it is said they can contribute to the
Atcheezyes 2,000 fighting men, if hard pressed to do so, they
avoid war as a rule, and care only for cultivating the ground,
which requires all their labour to yield subsistence to their
families. This disposition of the Pisheenees is advantageous,
as their country hes so immediately between Candahar and
Shawl. At Quetta the breastworks have been completed and
every preparation made to receive the enemy, but at present
all is quiet, the tribes having moved towards Candahar, and on
their prospects there much of their future movements will
depend.— Times, Veb. 9. _

UNION HALL-(THIS DAY.)

James Steers, a very powerful man, by trade a-master
chimney-sweeper, was charged with breaking hie wife's jaw,
and inflicting other injuries, by which her life is endangered.
A policeman produced a medical certificate, stating that the
unfortunate woman was in a dangerous state, and therefore
unable to attend. He said that the assault was committed on
the woman by the defendant, who struck her with such vi,lence
op the jaw as to fracture the bone, and that while she was lying
op the ground he kicked her in a savage manner.
The defendant said that his wife irritated him- by breaking
the windows, and that he struck her, but not with such force as
to hurt her seriously.
Mr. 'Col-rim:anAat said that the certificate produced de-
'scribed the assault as one of a most violent nature. He.slaould
take especial care that the injured. woman should appear if she
recovered, and if the case ended fatally he should certainly
commit the defendant for murder.—The defendant was then
remanded.
London, England, 1842-04-06

may be thought bf the opinion which prevails in this
country to a considerable and increasing extent, of the
inexpediency of extending our Eastern possessions,
there will be but one feeling as to the necessity im-
posed upon our Government of vindicating its own
character, by convincing the native powers of
India, that though perfidy may oecasionally be suc-
cessful, it is invariably punished. Akbar Khan must
be subdued, or other Akbar Khans will arise, who,
encouraged by his impunity, will imitate his duplicity
and cruelty ; and thus the British Empire in the
East may cease—solely through a want of prompti-
tude in applying our power to punish an act almost
unexampled in the history of Eastern faithlessness.
A Contemporary has, with accustomed precipitancy,
condemned General Elphinstone and the other British
authorities, for agreeing to the convention in vio-
lation of which our brave troops were massacred.
Agreeing fully in the demand for searching investiga-
tion, we think even that demand should suggest a
suspension of opinion, and especially a forbearance
from unqualified condemnation, in the absence of all
evidence as to the circumstances which determined
the General, and those who acted with him, to sign
'the convention. We give, among our extracts from.
the Indian papers, an account of the fate of the offi-
cers engaged in this disastrous affair. With the ex-
ception of the 44th Regiment, which was composed
entirely of British-born, all but the officers of the
other regiments, including the camp-followers, are
Sepoys and natives of India.

NICKEL INK; or JOIINSTONE'S PER-
MANENT WRITING FLUID, under the patronage
of the Academy of Sciences, Paris.
W. PEACOCK (by appointment) sole Agent for the above
incomparable Fluid, respectfully invites the attention of the
commercial public, and the literary and fashionable circles,
to some of the paramount properties of the Nickel Ink. It
stands unrivalled for i's clearness and facility in writing, being
free from that gelatinous deposit which clogs and corrodes
the metallic pen. As a preventive of fraud in banking and
other commercial transactions, it mesetits an important gua-
rantee, as it is indestructible (without injuring the surface of
the paper) by any of the chemical agents sshich destroy the
common inks. The colour of the Nickel Ink is a Seheeles
green, but it dries a vivid and permanent black—a striking con-
trast to the rusty black of other inks and writing fluids.

ADEN.

The following is from our Aden correspondent :—" We are
once mere on just as bad terms as ever with the Arabs, and
we hear of nothing now again but of attacks and war to the
hilt, all concocted by Mulla Jaffer, which Captain Haines
circulates as true. He has recently offended the Foothlees
very much, in a most unmeaning► manner. At the late
Fed, this tribe wished to make the usual sacrifice at the
tomb of Hydruoss, when they were met by a blunt refusal
from the Plenipotentiary. Captain Haines is crying " Wolf !
Wolf !" so lustily now, to have a pretext for sending out
troops to destroy Lahedge, and the country about, with fire
and sword on the arrival of the 17th Regiment Native Infantry,
as he has given it out that Government have authorised him to
do so, should there be occasion for such a measure. This will
be doing the business most effectually. We need expect no
more supplies after the whole country is laid waste and made
worse than a wilderness of. It would be well were Govern-
ment to order the State locker to calculate what it will coat us
in pounds, shillings, and pence extra, when the C,mmisariat
has to supply everything—leaving out of the question the num-
bers of lives that would be lost from increased disease, and the
extra hospital establishment.. It will also be good for the hu-
mane man to conlernplate the picture of distress and misery
effected merely to pander to the caprice of folly and knavery;
but I should hardly think Government can have entrusted such
powers to him, and that it is a vain boast of Capt. Haines. Bombay Times.

have great pleasure in stating that a younggentleman I have
lmigiknown as one of the very worst stammerers, has just been
brought to me entirely cured by Mr. Hunt's process. A dim.
cult title to a book, in which several German words occurred,
he read off correctly and well, and instead of prolonged hesita-
tion and most painful contortions of countenance whenever he
attempted to talk, he conversed with perfect ease and accuracy
of pronunciation. A very few weeks have sufficed for the
cure. SAMUEL ASHWELL, M.D.
