      Assistance to Patentees . —It has always been a matter of regret that the great inventors have not reaped the full reward of their genius and labour . Windsor derived but little pecuniary advantage , from the application of gas , which has spread to every civilised community of the world . The inventor of steam is in the same predicament , and unfortunately , we cannot look upon a single article that has added to our comforts and our civilisation without being reminded of the same sad fact . In many instances their very names are forgotten , and thousands have made fortunes out of their brains who had very few of that commodity themselves . Many plans have been devised to prevent such

      injustice , and the Patent Laws have been modified with some advantage , but still the great want—capital—has to be found on equitable and reasonable terms , to the . inventor . This is now proposed to be done by a joint-Stock Limited Company , entitled •* Inventors' Assistance Company ( Limited ) , for the General Promotion and Manufacture of Useful Inventions . " These intentions it proposes to carry out in the following manner :- —1 . The establishment of an office wlietfe . any person can deposit a model , drawing , or description of any invention or improvement he may have made , for the consideration of a Board of inspectors ( not less than three in number ) , consisting of scientific and practical men , each bound in a penalty of JE 500 to secrecy . 2 . The maintenance of a factory , with competent managers and staff of workmen , where all models , and

      inventions patented by the company , shall be manufactured for public sale , on a scale commensurate with the importance of the article . 3 . The carrying out of patents already obtained , or of inventions secured provisionally , for parties requiring assistance , and he patenting or registering such new inventions as shall have the approval of the company , as well as protecting them from the piracy of unprincipled persons , shrewd enough to see the advantages , and ever ready to appropriate the rights of others , when they can do bo with impunity . There can be no doubt of the excellence of the object of this company , and there seems to be every means taken to carry it out successfully ; and certainly anything that tends to improve the condition of inventors , and to encourage the vast fund of tajent that is latent in the minds of skilful operatives , deserves the bast wishes of all classes .

      Madras Irrigation and Canaii Compant , — The Report of the Directors to the first ordinary meeting of the Company , is now before us . They describe the scheme and objects contemplated , and the proceedings so far ' as-they have gone . We may eay , on a rapid perusal , that these seem to be exceedingly encouraging , and beapeak careful manageraeiit and flucceastul operations . The report is full ana explicit , and will be read with much interest not only by the shareholders , but by those interested in the '^ Ifture of India . The meeting is to take place °£ ?^ ' # 5 w 4 n atant , the proceedings of which we shim pbwjnvo with interest / and . duly report upon .

      Thb Iron Tkajoe . —The quarterly meetings -of the ironmasters terminated at Dudley on Saturday . Consumers hare bought moderately , little more than sufficient for half the quarter ' s consumption ^ whilst shippers , although disposed to buy , have operated only to a moderate-extent , leaving it open to them to come into the . market as circumstances ¦ may require or favour the extension of their transactions . On the part of all the leading firms there was a decided indisposition to accept lower prices , this determination being supported by the fact that makers of the best descriptions of manufactured iron had orders , enough on hand to keep the works going ; in addition to which there is such a steady

      though moderate demand , not from one , but from all quarters , that the prospects of the trade-are sueh as will enable all who are not obliged to sell in anticipation of the natural demand to firmly adhere to the trade prices . The transactions in pig-iron in Birmingham on Thursday , and again at Dudley on Saturday evening , were on a more extensive scale than they have been of late ; and the stacking of pigs has gone on of late only to a very moderate extent . There are so many makers of pig-iron that it is almost impossible to quote prices with any degree of accuracy . The average quotation at which sales were effected for good hot-blast iron was 31 . 12 s . 6 d . per ton .

      Poet of London . —During the past week there has been rather more activity . The number of vessels announced inwards at the Custom House as having arrived from foreign ports amounted to 304 . There were four from Ireland and 172 colliers . The entries outwards were 105 , and tbose cleared ninety ^ eight , besides nineteen in ballast . The "departures for the Australian Colonies have been four vessels —viz ., one to Port Philip , of 526 tons ; one to Sydney , of 707 tons ; and two to New Zealand , of 1 , 249 tons—making a total of 2 , 512 tons . Mineral Wealth of Netv Zbalikd . —The

      journals contain interesting accounts of Dr . Hochstetter ' s geological exploration . He had just returned from a visit to Goromandel Harbour , where the coal was examined and botb > goldfields explored . " Mr . Heaphy and Mr . Ring pdinted out a locality where a thin bed of auriferous quartz grit was known toexist , and the first shovelful washed yielded the usual show of grain and scale gold . Dr . Hochstetter then dug and washed a dishful , which yielded a quartz specimen with a streak of gold through it of about the size of a hazel nut , together with a considerable quantity of large scale gold—a most favourable prospect , and in every panful washed the gold scales abounded . His opinion is said to be that there exists a great quantity of gold not far from the locality where the specimens were obtained , but that the search should be carefully prosecuted among the quartz veins in the mountains rather than by digging in the alluvial deposits .

      Gold in Van Diemen ' s Lanjd . —The last newspapers from Tasmania ( Van Diemen's Land ) contain several further paragraphs respecting the gold discoveries in that island . At a publicmeeting at Circular Head an expedition had been arranged to explore the reefs of quartz ascertained to exist in the neighbourhood . It was said that specimens had been tested giving an average yield of eight ounces of gold to the ton , 15 ounces having been in some cases obtained . Half a ton hud been sent to Melbourne to be crushed . ' Gold

      had also been discovered on the Wilmot , a river running into the Forth on its Western side , and on the Forth itself , above , the junction of the Wilmot , and some distance below the ford at Middlesex Plains . It was therefore inferred that the gold producing area in that region is extensive . There was still , however , no certainty that it exists in quantities to yield an average remuneration' for labour , such as may be obtained at any of the ordinary mining districts either of Victoria or New South Wales < -
