From the Hon. F. G. Wynne — The Hon. F. G. Wynne is highly pleased with the 17s. 6d. Vertical Engine. It is remarkably cheap, and well worth its price. He gives Mr. Richardson great credit for it. From F.*W. Cook, Esq., Burton House, Cumberland-street, Sydney, N.S.W. I have received my Telescope (Lord Brougham) all safe by Panama mail, and am much, pleased with it.
