AN ACCIDENT, likely to have been attended with serious

IM DOCK FRAUDS.---It is alleged that, after the
'reporters had retired from the meeting of the Dock Com-
tnittee, last week, a conversation took place on the
alleged frauds by non-payment of dock dues. A clause
has been put into the new Customs Bill which will check
the system. It is said that the frauds amount to £3O 000
a-year. By the saving thus effected, it is proposed to
create a sinking `fund for ultimately payin o the bonds. Afterwards, on an application being ffg
read,dock the
Committee decided that, for the present, they would not
incTIIE rease the salary of any of their servants.

A STOICAL PROBLEM.—There was a famous problem
among the Stoics, which ran thus When a man says
' I lie,' does he lie, or does he not P If he lie, he speaks
the truth; if he speaks the truth he lies." Many were
the profound works written on this wonderful problem.
Chrysippus favoured the world with no less than six ; and
Philetus studied himself to death in his vain attempt to
solve it.

CHINESE SAYINGS.—Some of the ordinary expressions
of the Chinese are sarcastic enough. A blustering harm-
less fellow they call " a paper tiger." When a man values
himself overmuch they compare him to a "rat falling
into a scale and weighing itself." Overdoing a thing
they call a hunchback making a bow." A spendthrift
they compare to a rocket which goes off at once. Those
who expend their charity on remote objects, but neglect
their family, are said "to hang their lantern on a pole,
which is seen afar, but gives no light below."

DARKER'S PATENT FOR BANDING
PULLEYS.—The Proprietors of Foundries, Cotton
Factories, Saw Mills, Corn and Rice Mills, Building and
Joiners' Establishments, and all others requiring rotary
motion, are respectfully invited to examine PARKER's
PRINCIPLE of BANDING PULLEYS, which combines a
large saving of motive power, with an increased velocity of
motion never before obtained in limited compass, and may
be applied as well to the first motion from the engine as to
the collateral demands upon the power, which is largely
saved by avoiding the Complicated Bands, Pulleys, and Cog
heels.
The principle is applied with matchless success to Fans,
Blowers, Lathes, Winnowing and Thrashing Corn, Chopping
Hay, Grinding Malt, Circular Saws, of any required dimen-
sions • but the most remarkable application of this invention
is to thet Portable Circular Saw which is made to perform a
variety of duties that render it the most desirable tool, and
which no mechanic will be able to dispense with.
For the right to use this patented invention, and for the
purchase of the royalties of any Town, County, District, or
its
application,
any individual establishment, and for directions in
application,
Apply to WILLIAM ROWETT, Commercial-buildings,
Water-street, who is the sole Agent for Liverpool.
N.B.—lt has been ascertained that one man working the
Portable Saw can do the . work of a steam-engine of one-
horse power for a limited period.

continue to attend the Institution, and that future distributions
