The surgeon to whom we applied, succeeded in healing the ulcer, but almost immediately afterwards an ulcer appeared upon his face, ami the boy was dreadfully afflicted with running sores upon his neck and body ; the discharge of matter was so great, that we were obliged daily to change his linen. The physicians and surgeons in tbe neigh- bourhood were applied to, but their skill was in vain; several other remedies we resorted to, proved equally ineffectual, aud the sufferer continued a poor and miserable object, almost bent double for near twenty years. At this time I heard of the virtues of your inestimable medicine, and after taking six bottles, which I purchased from Mr. Suiton, of Nottingham, an amendment began to take place, aud perseverance iu taking four boitles more, effected a perfect cure. It is now six years since this was accomplished, for which 1 return you my unfeigned thanks, and wish you to make it public, for the benefit of those who may be similarly afflicted. 1 am, gentlemen, vour obedient servant, JOHN FOULKES.

The French government in its newly acquired territories « m J ho south shores of the IVleditefranean, lias s| Hs\ vi> gn at vigour. The Pacha of Tripoli and 1he J3oy of Tunis have, like their' neighbours of Algiers, heen brought to submission by the firmness of the French Admiral, and compcHed to promise to demean themselves more respectfully. in future iowaf- ds other pewers Admiral Rosamel, in bringing them to book, has obliged the Pacha of Tripoli to pay 400,0( 10 francs tipou' 1 he spot, and to give his bond for a similar sum, payable in Dec mber. The Chamber of Pet I'M, in reference to the trial of tbe I; x- Ministers, have resolved thai the President s- hotild write to all the Peers absent from Paris or out < tf France, acquainting them with the important duties they are called upon to fulfil; and that in Order lo give time to such as are 011 missions abroad to return to the capital, the 1st of November has been fixed as the'earliest jreriod for receiving fhe report of the judicial commission of examination. The Mcswycr des Chumbres says, " A Spanish Junta is formed, they say, af BAyOnne. MM. Isturitz:, Calatrava, Sattcho, and Lopez Pinto, are among fhe members who Compose it. The refugees continue to. collect along the Pyrenees. The. v are in want neither of arms nor money. The Spanish government, which is expecting that they will soon re- enter their country, takes extraordinary measures fo oppose them. 1> A potato letter dated Paris, October says~ *' The ohl and Vespeftabfe banking- house of Vassal and Co. the head of which house was Member of the Chamber of Deputies, and President of the Chamber of Commerce, was testerday announced to have foiled,^ nd to day M Vassal has sent his resignation to the former Chamber. The failure of this respect able house is not an isolated measure, nor one which Will only have a local effect. On the contrary it is to be attributed to the depressed state of trade, the ruined state of the manufacturing interests, and - the geherar retiring of all capital, and non- f> ayiYient of all commercial paper. Yesterday also, M- Collon, of the firm of £ ollon and Co. merchants and bankers in Paris, attcfiipted to destroy himself in consequence of tlie embarrassed state of his affairs. It is said,- that fhe bouse will be eventually unaffected, and that it will pay 20s. in the pound. These two failures are generally regarded as sad presages of others of a more extensive and alarming character, and a few » uch lameritable occurrences would shake public confidence and credit to a degree scarcely imaginable in England." If is rumouted among the legal circles that the whole of the new Judges will not. b£ appointed im- mediately ; and that, the experiment will be first tried iu the Court of King's Bench. On Saturday night, one of those outrages which have signalized and disgraced the county of Kent for some time past was perpetrated wit!) hi a few miles of Canterbury. A large party attacked a farm- house within a short distance of Green- street, a small village or hamlet between Sittingbourne and Faversham, and, having mastered the dwellers, went into an outhouse, where they fired arid burned a threshing machine. NORTH SHROPSHIRE YEOMANRY CAVALRY. THE NETHERLANDS. At a late hour 011 Friday afternoon, the following Proclamation, issued by the Prince of Orange on the 5th inst. was received from Antwerp :— " WILT. IAM, Prince of Orange, to the inhabitants of the Southern Pfovirides of the kingdom.— Being Charged provisionally by the King, otir august father, with the government of the Southern Provinces, we arrive in tlie midst of you, with the hope of being; able to contribute to the establishment of order and the . happiness of the coOntry. Our heart bleeds at the < eviis which you have suffered ; may we, seconded by the efforts of all good citizens, prevent the calamities which may still threaten you. a In quitting you, we conveyed lo the feet of the Throne the wishes expressed hy many of you for a separation between the two parts of the kingdom, remaining, however, under the same sceptre. This wish has been granted. " But before the mode and conditions of this great measure can be determined in the constitutional forms, attended with inevitable delays, already his Majesty grants provisionally to the Southern. Pro- vinces a distinct, administration, composed entirely of Belgians, of which 1 am the chief. The affairs of this administration wiH be carried on with public bodies, and with individuals, in the laiigViage that they may choose; " All places dependent upon this government will1 he given to the inhabitants of the provinces which fonipose it. The greatest liberty will be left with respect to the instruction of youth, and other ameli- orations will be made in accordance with the wish of the nation and the wants of the times. Fellow- Countrymcn, all that we ask from you, in order to realise these hopes, is to unite your efforts to ours, and we at once guarantee to you entire oblivion of all political errors which have preceded this pro- clamation. 41 The better to attain the end that we propose, we invoke all information, • and will adopt all useful advice. We will surround ourselves with several notable . inhabitants, distinguished by their patriotism Let all who, are animated by the same sentiment approach us with confidence. " Belgians, it is bv such means that we hope to save, with you, this fine country, that is so dear to • J oil " Given at Antwerp the 5th of October, 1P30. ( Signed) " WILLIAM, Prince of Orange." Tliis document is an important one at the present, moment, and though by many it is thought to be issued too late, others are not without sanguine ex- pectation that, as the fervour of the first impulse abates, the Belgians themselves will be disposed to listen to an adjustment, which will concede to them even more than their original demand.

On Thursday last, the North Shropshire Yeomanry Cavalry, commanded by Sir Rowland Hill, Bart, were inspected by Colonel Townshend, and bad the gratification of receiving- his unqualified approbation. — In the evening of the same day, the Officers of the corps gave a Ball and Supper, which were very numerously attended, at the Talbot Inn, Draytoji. On Saturday, the Yeomanry marched from Dray- ton ( in which town they had been quartered during: the preceding week), and assembled in the PaVk, at Hawkstone. After executing a variety of move- ments, with a degree, of precision which would1 have done honour to a regiment of the line, they drew up in front of a large tent, pitched for the accommo- dation of the higher class of spectators. Lord Hill, in a short address to the regiment, spoke warmly of the satisfaction which lie, in common with all around him, derived from the passing scene, and of the sincere pleasure which he had felt on observing the soldierlike appearance of the North Shropshire Cavalry. Our brave Yeomen want not the meed of praise to keep them firmly in the duties which may devolve upon them, but the commendation of the great warrior ( a native of their own county), who now holds the h'ghest situation in the army, could not fail to make a deep and lasting impression on their hearts. The roaring of the cannon, which had been fired at intervals throughout the morning, now ceased, and the fine band, attached to the regiment, gave the welcome to the " Roast Beef of Old England." The dinner was spread in a building" admirably suited to the purpose, and which was decorated with oaken wreaths, arches, & c. The words " God stive the King" appeared on different parts of thfe edifice ; and on the centre of it, surmounted by a crotvn and flags, were placed the initials of William and Ade- laide. A very handsome collation was prepared in the Green Ho Use, and on tables set. before it, for the officers and a large party of visiters of rank and fashion. Many loyal, constitutional, and ; appro- priate toasts were given, but, as we have been unable to obtain a correct list of them, we shall notice only the . undernamed. " The Kiriy This toast Was followed by loiid. acclamations, and the national air so dear to every trueborn Briton. r— f* The . Queen"— with similar manifestations of loyalty and attachment.—" Sir Rowland IIill"— who, after returning his cordial thanks for the honour conferred upon him, addressed a few words to the corps, and said, that the high entomiiuns passed upon the North Shropshire Yeomanry Cavalry, by Lord Hill, Colonel ToWhsh& Ycf, and other brave and experienced soldiers, had tendered his praise unnecessary ; but that he must offer his grateful acknowledgments to the officers, through whose kindness and exertions he had been enabled to brftlg so fine a- body of men info the field, and to the pri^ ateff for their exemplary steadiness of conduct tfuring the t'* ne of, their attendance on permanent duty. The Yeomen quitted the festive board at an early feeufe and retired with a soldierlike attention to regularity and decorum highly creditable to Ifhemse+ ves^ ami gratifying to those who witnessed their demeanour. The supply of provisions prepared for the occasion afforded, in addition to the banquets before noticed, an ample feast for two hundred children from schools in the neighbourhood, refreshment for nearly two hundred labourers and mechanics em- ployed on the grounds at Hawkstone, and an over- plus to be divided among the families of the last- named classes. The quiet and praiseworthy be- haviour of the humbler orders of the spectators added much to the satisfaction which the arrange- ments for the dav were so well calculated to afford; Tlie New Beer Act came int: o operation on Monday last; and the number of licenses granted at the Excise Office for this district has been very numerous— more especially for the Newport, Shiffnal, and, Wolverhampton divisions.

The near approach of the meeting of parliament has caused much activity among the burgesses of Southwark. Lord John Russell's supporters have abandoned the field, his Lordship having declined to take his seat, if elected. The remaining candidates are Mr. C'alV. ert, the Cx- iViember, and Mr. Farncomb. The former still refuses to canvass, but his partisans nre strenuously exerting themselves to procure his return. LONDON, Monday Niyht, Oct. 11, 1830. LIVERPOOL MUSICAL FESTIVAL. The Annual Meeting of the Subscribers and Friends to the Shropshire Church Missionary Association took place ou Monday last, in the Town Hall, Shrewsbury. — iThe attendance at the meeting was mostly com- posed of females, and was of high respectability — Thomas Whitmore, Esq. presided ; anil prayers having been offered up by the Rev. Humphrey Sandford, the business of tbe day was commenced by the reading- of the Report, from which it appeared that the sum of £ 990. Ms. 9jd. had been collected throughout this county, during the last year, for Ihe general purposes of the Society.— The meeting was then addressed by the Rev. Robert Mayor, the Rev. Thos. Woodrooffc, the Rev. Archdeacon Bather, the Rev. Messrs. Cooper ( of Madeley) anil Howell ( of Hughleigh) & c.; and the several resolutions proposed were unanimously adopted—( See Advertisement ) The Rev. Archdeacon Bather, in his address, forcibly pointed out the duty of giving the utmost aid to Missionary exertions, and of contributing thereto, not hy a withdrawal of benevolence from loeal and domestic charities, but by au enlargement of the sphere of charity, to be effected by a spirit of ehtislian self denial.— The collections made after the meeting, atrd after the sermon preached at St. Alkititmd's Church on Sunday last, amounted to £ 28. 14s. 3d.

By the letters brought by the arrivals this day from Holland and Flanders it is asserted lhat a nego- tiation between the Dutch and Belgir parties is now under consideration, and tbat even De Potter himself may take a part in il. The correspondence from Antwerp is of a similar tendency, which of coarse is less to'be relietl upon. We learn bv private letters from Amsterdam, that the Bank continues to discount' at 5 per cent, and makes advances 011 Dutch Stock at ! 24 per cent, below Ihe market price. It also appears that the King has deemed it prudent, under the circumstances, to take off the duty on foreign corn, to avoid as much as possible all popular discontent on the subject of the prices of provision*. On the w hole lmich confidence appears to be entertained in Holland ofthe ultimate accomplishment of a pacific arrange- ment, and this idea is countenanced by corroborative statements front less interested quarters. Lloyd's books ( his morning, exhibit, an account of the loss of nineteen vessels engaged in the Davis s Straits' fishery. This has created a . great sensation among the dealers in oil, aud they already demand an advance of five pounds per tun, with a general idea of a further rise. The tallow market has also been much agitated, hut we can quote no variation iu the price, although the holders refuse to sell; consc- quenty the article may be expected to advance considerably. Sir Robert Peel, ns well as Mr C. Grant, have declined the honour of representing Liverpool. Mr. William Ewart is Ihe only candidate at present. The Common Council of Liverpool on Wednesday voted £ 5" 0 towards the erection of the monument to commemorate fhe virtues and splendid talents of their late rcpresentatbe, Mr. Huskissou. On Friday last, a murder was committed at New. haven, Sussex, by Harry Winter, the Captain of a trading vessel, upon his own wife. The instrument lie employed for the purpose was a fire shovel, which was broken fo pieces. A coroner's inquest sat upon the body, when a verdict of Wilful Murder was returned. The prisoner was committed to Horsham gaol for trial ut the next assizes. New Subscribe' to the National School. Richard Jenkins, Esq. M. P . t' 5 t New Subscriber to the Hoyal Lancasterian School.

The friends and well- wishers of William Ormsby Gore, Esq. residing in and near Oswestry, intend to celebrate bis election as Member of Parliament for Carnarvon, by a public dinner, fo which the Hon.

On Friday last, James Plnmmer, aged 18, William Ilowdler, aged 17, and George Vicliers, aged 19, caught in the act of robbing the garden of Joseph Sutton, Esq. of this town, on the preceding night, were duly convicted of that offence before Joseph Loxdale, jun. Esq. Mayor, and sentenced fo be imprisoned to hard labour in the House of Cor- rection for one month.— We trust this will operate as a warning to offenders of this description.— The number of gardens that have been plundered near this town recently is very great; and we also regret to say, that a robbery of a more serious character was committed 011 Saturday night, in the Castle Foregate— the Grapes public- house having been feloniously entered and robbed of money, apparel, and a ham of bacon. A man is now in custody in this town, on suspicion of felony, under the following circumstances.— On Saturday last he brought to Astley, within the liberties of Shrewsbury, a roll of butt leather, weigh- ing ab ut 431bs. which he said he picked up on the tnrnpike road between Hodnet and Shawbury early that morning : but there being reason to suspect his statement, he was detained. The Liverpool Musical Festival, last week, was closed by a Grand Fancy Ball, in the Town Hall, 011 Friday night.— The Company was extremely nu- merous ; and wc observe that among those present were— Hon. Thomas Kenyon, Mrs. Kenyon, Mr. Lloyd Kenyon, and Miss Kenyon, in fancy dresses; Mr. ft J'ones Croxon, of Oswestry, in military uniform; Mr. VV. H. Jones, of Shrewsbury, in tbe original full dress of Kepafa, an Indian Chief of the Choetan nation ; Miss F. C.

( Brynbella) as a Highland Chieftain ; Mrs. Price ( Brynbella) as the Princess Royal, daughter of Charles the First ; Rev. Thomas Parr ( Westbnry); Mr. W. Urwiclc, a Highlander of tbe Stewart Clan. It is expected that the gross receipts of the Festival will reach £ 7,000, a sum less by £ 2,000 than the gross receipts of the Festival in 1827. LIVERPOOL FANCY BALL. There was a scene of revelry bv ni< jlit: " The good old" capital bad gathered theii Her beauty and her chivalry ; and bright The lamps shone o'er young ladies and young men.

WELSH LITERATURE.— An Association has been lately formed in London, with the title of " The Literary and Translation Society of Wales ,-" tbe object of which is the dissemination of knowledge in the Principality. To this end a series of cheap monthly pamphlets are to be published in the Welsh language,- containing summaries of the History of England, of Wales, & c. Essays 011 the Agriculture of the different Welsh counties, Elementary treatises on Arithmetic, National History, & c. The prospectus stales, it is irrelevant to argue against the benefits of education ; the lower classes of Wales have, of late years, shewn an avidity for reading that cannot be repressed ; the only course left is to prevent this taste from taking a wrong direction. It is obvious that the mere publication of Essays can only serve to guide,- aud to gratify an ardour for knowledge already in existence, and is inadequate to call it forth permanently. The Society proposes to itself neither the extension, nor the encouragement of the Welsh language, but to instruct in that dialect, in which the people can receive instruction. An abstinence will be observed from points of controversy, 011 which the great religious denominations in Wales are divided: yet, without excluding the expression of every common Christian sentiment and feeling. After much consideration, the conclusion has been formed that the Society may, by tbis course, avoid tbe offence both of unnecessary theological discussions, and of an apparent indifference to religion altogether. Among the Society's correspondents are, the Rev. W. Davics, Dr. O. Pughe, A. O. Ptighe, Esq. J. B. Williams, Esq. the Rev. E. Davies, the Rev. T. Richards, Christopher Temple, Esq. A. D. Jones, Esq. The members of the Society are to receive copies of the tracts published, in proportion to the amount of their respective subscriptions.

The chapel is already fitted up; the old pulpit has been removed, and in its stead appears a « • thrones- which has a rich canopy, cushion, & c. The old altarpiece has disappeared, and a new marble one, surmounted by a tabernacle, is erected on its site. TUe„ Vf hule is beautiful, and the altarpiece is exquisitely- workied. The further wing of the building is the residence of Dr. Bayncs. In the centre of the building a library is forming. The new buildings will be finished by Christinas. There is an intermediate house, prettily situated, which is occupied by tutors, as is the Priory, a fine and romantic, but old building, at a short dis- tance from the College. The old tower, or " ob- servatory," on the summit of the grounds, remains " walled up," but it is to be opened and adapted to scientific purposes. Ko v. here does there appear to be any want of the « sinews of war," nor of the disposi- ti( n an'l capacity to enter into a formidable rivalry with Protestant instructors and establishments.

[ From the Manchester Chrinicle."] THE LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY — A meeting of the Proprietors of the Liverpool ami Manchester Railway was held, on Monday, at the Railw; ay- office, Liverpool; at which it was deter- mined unanimously to apply to Parliament, in the ensuirig Session, for leave to form a branch from the present jjue to communicate with the docks ami the northern part of the town of Liverpool. The branch will probably commence near Huyton, and will ter- minate near the north dock.— At tbe same meeting the sum of 250 guineas was voted towards the fund for erecting a monument to Mr. Huskisson; and a similar sum was also voted for purchasing a piece of plate for General GascoynC. Both gentlemen ren- dered important services to the Company when their Bill was before Parliament.— The Omnibuses of the Railway C'om| rfijr began to ply in. Liverpool 011 Monday. They are very commodious vehicles, each of them capable of carrying eighteen or twenty per- sons.— We understand that several of the coaches have been withdrawn from the Liverpool and Man Chester road, from llie impossibility of contending with the railway. This was of course to be ex- pected. " She number of passengers conveyed by the Railway Company during the last week has been from right hundred to a thousand a- ilay. During the past week there has been a considerable increase in the number of passengers who have been conveyed from this town to Liverpool over that of the preceding week. The musical festival at the latter town lias of course attracted a large proportion of the visitors, for whose accommodation additional car- riages, including- " the Duke's tram," have been placed on tbe road ; but it is evident that the ma- jority of the public prefer this mode of conveyance.— Complaints have been made of the insufficient accom- modation afforded by the railway coaches, and espe- cially that what are called first class coaches arc many of them quite open at the sides, and conse- quently very much exposed to the inclemency of the weather. The Directors regret extremely that the accommodation they have been able to afford Ihe Public has hitherto been so imperfeel ; a considerable improvement, however, lias already been effected. The departure of the first- class coaches now takes place, from end to end, four times a- day ; and four coaches in each case ( out of the five of which the trains consist) are either glass coaches, or completely curtained; and, very shortly, all the carriages in these trains will be protected from the weather. Additional coaches are building, and the Directors are determined to spare 110 pains, whether ill the construction of the carriages or in the arrangements for travelling, to render the railway conveyance alto- gether complete in itself, and satisfactory to the Public. As a proof of the expedition with which lmsiness in Liverpool and Manchester can now be effected, it nitty be mentioned, that a few days ago, Mr. Wool- right, of Bold- street, Liverpool, dispatched some worsted yarn lo this town to be dyed to pattern, and returned as soon as possible. It was forwarded by the railway, at twelve at noon, anil was actually dyed arid - batk again upon his counter, ready for his fringe- maker, at six in Ihe evening of the same day. Lint involution in business which the railway is pro- ducing exceeds any anticipation ever formed respect- ing it. Last week, a gentleman, who had transacted a forenoon's business in Liverpool, was seen at Dr. Raflles's chapel m ( he evening, and it w as known that lie had been busily engaged iu Manchester for full tw; o hours in the interim. A si. gbt accident occurred on Thursday to one of the carriages, wh. lst in its progress between both towns A fore- wheel was broken and shattered to pieces, and the carriage diverged from the railway, but not the slightest injury was sustained by any of the passengers, as Ihe engine and train were immedi- ately stopped. The carriage was disconnected from the others, and the passengers were placed in another vehicle, when the train proceeded onwards. The accident delayed the company about three quarters of an hour.— A report prevailed in the town of a serious disaster having occurred 011 Wednesday ; but we find 011 inquiry that there is not the slightest foundation for the rumour. then diverge to Oakham, Mellon, Leicester, Lough- borough, and, passing between Nottingham and Lerliy., proceed through the Derbyshire coal field to its junction with the Cromford and High Peak rail, way, which will form Ihe connexion with Manchester and Liverpool. It is further proposed to continue the. line from Stamford to Lincoln, Thofne, Selbv, and York; uniting in its course with the Leeds and Si'lhy railway, ami effecting the most direct commu- nication between London and York, from whence an extension further North may be expected. ' Ihe interchange of. productions of the agricultural, mine- ral, .-.!!<[ manufacturing districts, to which 90 much facility will lie rendered by this proposed connection, will create a trade great beyond calculation, and yield a revenue lhat- w- ill amply remunerate for Ihe capital invested, independent of the trade of the ports of Ijondon, Liverpool, and Hull; and of new sources from Ihe branches lo which the formation of the main line will lead, The cheap and fupid Conveyance Of passengers will extend the means and comforts of travelling within the reach of every class— will facili- tate the pleasures of personal inlet- course, and extend the diffusion of knowledge and discoveries. Among tbe applications announced as intended to be made lo the ensuing Parliament to authorise lli'e formation of Railways, is one from" Wolverhampton ( through Dudley) to Birmingham. THE IRON AGE.

Representatives of both these parties were ilLattendance; and, after the meeting had con e to a decision on the questions ahove slated, a conference took place, and it was agreed fhat Mr. Vignoles, the engineer of the Preston and Wigan road, should meet Mr. Rasfrick, the engineer of one of Ihe Bolton com panics, in order to ascertain the most desirable point at which a junction could be formed. PROJECTED RAILWAY FROM LEEDS to BRAD FORD.— On Monday week, a meeting of gentlemen favourable to the formation of a railway between tbe towns of Bradford and I. eeds, was held at the Talbot Inn, Bradford, E. C. Lister, Esq. in the chair which a committee was appointed for the purpose erf accompanying Mr. Walker, the engineer, in his sur- veys for the purpose of fixing upon an eligible line An adjourned meeting Was held at the same place on Monday last, for the pnrpose of receiving the report of the Committee; which having been adopted, was resolved that the necessary measures should be taken for enabling an application to be made lo Parliament in the approaching Session.— 11 is in tended that tbe projected railway shall commence as near the town of Bradford as the levels will permit the use of locomotive engines, and proceed throu Laister Dyke, Quarry Gap, passing near Slanningley to Hough End, in Bramley, from whence two line are at present marked out, one of which passes thro Armley and near Wellington Bridge ; the oilier is prdposed to go through the townships of Wortley Holbeck, and Hunslet, and to join the l- eeds ami Selby Railway about half a mile on the Selhy side of the Tunnel, which is lo pass under Richmond liill THE LONDON NORTHERN RAILWAY— This great national work, from which may be anticipa ed results not minor to those of any undertaking hitherto pro jeeted, is about to be resmned. It may be remein blered, that owing to tbe events „ f the year 1825, it was not deemed prudent to attempt its prosecution tilt times more favourable and further experience should guarantee its success. Eventually, the atten tion of all England has been directed to llie comple tion of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, to ascertain how far the rational expectations of the friends of the railway system might meet with con firmation— tbe result has been triumphant, ami the capability of the locomotive engine, even in its pre- sent immature state, to convey with safety, celerity and unrivalled cheapness, has become an established fact, so lhat new sources for the profitable investment of capital have been opened, that will at once add to the national benefit and to the pleasures and conven ence of the people. The line selected for the London Northern Railway is peculiarly favourable as regard: the levels and its formation, as well as for the various and abundant products of the country through which it passes. ' I'lie greater part of it will be nearly on a perfect level, and ia the one or two instances w here ridges have to be crossed, this will be effected hy a rise of only 20 feet in tbe mile, or one in 261— a devi- ation from a level which offers no impediment to tbe advantageous application of the locomotive engine. The Railway will commence near Ihe East and West India Docks, in London; and iu its course pass Ware, Cambridge, Peterborough, and Stamford, and Our grandfathers sang a glee, beginning If a man were secure That his lite would endure To a thousand lifng years, and . continuing to imagine the prodigious. works he would on such conditions of vitality undertake and accomplish, « and all without trouble or care."— Tfjere was great wisdom in desiring an extension of life proportionate to the magnitude of designs, for surely it is ft It to be a sad thing to beaded in the age of improvements. The middle- aged gentry are just now placed at pitiable disadvantage— we afe in what the French call a " false position." Precisely when the world is taking its great start, we are enter- ing OIL the worse moiety of life, and bidding adieu to the season of activity and enterprise. What vic- tory of our time is to be compared with the conquest of space which is now in process. We sicken with envy of posterity, when we think of the Manchester and'Liverpool railway, with its quiet little beginning of t! iirty miles an hour. How mortifying to conside that yve have been cast in the world thirty years before the age of convenience, and to remember the journeys we have jolted at the rate of six, seven, and eight miles an hour, and the pleasures and conveni- ences which distances have denied us — distances ! our children will ask what the word ' means. The ancients surely had a glimpse of these things, and Medea's cauldron of renovation was the boiler of a steam- engine. By being; put in that pot, tbe world is made young again. What a codger was the w orld before yesterday !— what ways, what gait, what car- riage, what clumsiness, what fallacies, what ignorance, what humdrum habits, w hat abject ideasyaiid shabby content! A dozen years ago, tbe boast was of mail. coaches and canals ! Mail co- aches and canals the Goths I The world will henceforward skate with' Ihe ind's speed on iron; and as for the canals, they ill only be good for filling boilers. Who will talk > f horse- racing now ? who will match mettle against metal? who will back blood against boilers? A aggon may have the odds against the St. Leger field. But even now, we are doubtless iu our infancy • the world is only just learning to walk, just putting forth its feeble and unassured legs nt Ihe rate of thirty miles, an hour— wretched going, our children ill say; incredible drawling, our grandsons will exclaim. The Land's End and John o' Groat's House ill be short drives, and the journey from Paris to Rome a morning's excursion ; the Grand Tour, the ravel round tbe world through both Poles. Again repeat, it is mortally mortifying to think of quil ting the world when these improvements are in pro- ess,. and opening their triumphs and conveniences to our admiring, expecting, and longing eyes. Best to young, hut better to be old than middle- aged, liicb is now the tantalizing position. The old have lost the spring of activity, and may console them- ilVes wiih the privilege of exaggerating the past system, so dear to senility. They may laud the age of stately movements, cocked liats, swords, and perri- wigs, and the talk of Ranelagh is yet theirs. Thev too may fib and crack, and set forth the passages and exploits of ( heir youth, without fear of contradiction of correction. But the middle- aged lack even these poor consolations. The witnesses are too numerous, and the realities too adjacent. VVe are unlucky borderers, who have passed our best davs on the worst side of things. We have drunk port wine, anil spent a day in journey rg ( what a word! will i£ bs understood next week?) between l- ondon and Brigh- ton ; we have dined in a coffee- house; we have talked of the Catholic question; we have sailed on '> ntrary winds in packets,- and been acquainted willi diligences of nine inside. And even now, when wc are crossing the line of age to the wrong side, the world is bill advancing to its years of discretion. If- is only in its nonage, and it- wi'• come to manhood in its twenty first century. It is now but in its teens of greenness. One inconvenience we anticipate for post- rity, and lhat will be the smallness of the- globe when railing and steaming are perfected. It will be found not large enough for exercise. The deserts of Arabia may be made a ring, a Hyde Park for airing; but the people w ill complain of confinement, and lly to suburbs in America and about the Poles, which will be warmed without stoves. Tbe conquest of space will thus end, as of old, in discontent, and the Alexanders of mechanics will weep for other worlds to overrun.— Spectator.

EAGLF- LIFE INSURANCE OFFICE.— On Saturday, a very numerous and highly respectable meeting of th'e Proprietary of the above Company Was held at Ihe London Tavern, Bishopsgate- Street, to receive the annual report; Sir VV. Rawlins in the chair. The Report detailed, with great minuteness, the pro- ceedings of fhe Company for the preceding year: it appeared that the business lias undergone consider- able augmentation, which is attributable to the ju'di- cious distinction recently introduced into the tables of the Company, between the rate of premium charged upon fhe insurance of the Ifves of the two sex- es, the singular difference of longevity being long known to calculators, but irad never been previously applied to the practical purposes of insurance— The Report was unanimously- adopted.— The audited ac- counts were approved, and a dividend declared. • Thanks were voted to the Directors for the zeal and success with which they discharged the trust reposed iu them. The Chairman, on behalf of the Directors, returned thanks, ami the meeting separated.— British Traveller, Oct. Or. For some weeks past there has been much interest excited at the Stock Exchange respecting a reported, defaulter, a late partner in a banking- house ; the negotiations respecting his affairs closed last night, and the whole is satisfactorily arranged.— The failure of an eminent mercantile firm in the city is just announced:- the house has been- in business for nearly a century, and* was Chiefly in' the Irmh trade ; the individual partners are highly respected. The Exeter Flying Post of Thursday says—" The Right Rev. Dr. e. Bethell, Lxird Bishop of this diocese, left his palace in this city yesterday morn ing, it is understood on his way to Bangor, which he io expected to reach this day. His Lordship's removal from tile diocese of Exeter to that of Bangor, vacant by the death of Dr. Majendie, is now certain, and according to report, he will be succeeded here by Dr. Phillpotts, now Dean of Chester, who, it is said, will be consecrated about the end of October, and arrive in his diocese during the Christmas week." Tbe I. ichjidd Mercury says—" We hinted in our last number that some measures of an unpleasant complexion were likely to result from the late contested election in this city. It is now our painful duty to report that they have taken place. In opposition to the conciliatory conduct recommended aud practised by tbe respective candidates, a blow has been struck which, in spite of its weakness, cannot fail to excite discord. The Rev. Chancellor Law and Mr. Dodson have received notices to quit some small accommodation lands, the property of Lord Anson; and Dr. Jones and Mr. Greene have been treated in the same manner. Now, it is clear that. these gentlemen are thus " marked" for the pari taken by themselves or ( heir relatives in the late election— by themselves or their relatives we say, he cause in the cases of Dr. Jones and Mr. Greene the offencc was given by their sons." Boulogne. Judge Bayley presided. A Grand Airy having. becn nnpaniieried, llie Judge explained to' them that the 9th of George IV. provided that a subject of this country might be tried here, although the offence were committed abroad. The charge to be inquired into had arisen not of a diTrl in France, ill which one of the patties had met with his dealh^ arid it would be their duty to consider whether the individual whose name they wotihl find at the head of thti bill had occasioned such death, and bait therein committed murder or manslaughter. • His Lordship tfarn distinctly laid down the , taw as applicable lo duelling. The charge, of murder, he stated, in the event of death eirsiiifig iff such cases, fell not only upon th'e principal, but Upon those'who acted its seconds in Ihe affair, as well as those who Were aiders or abettors. This wouhl apply to the seconds of Ihe deceased as well as to those, of the surviving party ; it was right, therefore, that the Grand Jury should he on their guard with respect to til • character of Ihe witnesses wh'. V might be called, anil that Ihev could not lie. compelled to answer questions that might criminate themselves. The Grand Orv then retired. After an absence of about, an hour and a half, they returned into court, and the! chairman, addressing the Learned . fudge, said, tha they found that the indictment charged the party wiih the wilful mffrder of the deceased at " linulogn that is io saty, in the parish of St. Mary le Row, in. tha citi/ of London " Another Juror said, that as plain citizens 6f London, guided by the rules of common sense, it was impossible that they coiilil come to a decision upon a bill that alleged such a palpable falsehood.— Mr. Justice Ba'ylev said, that if was a mere legal technicality, and that the Grand Jury might, if they pfeijsed, strike it out. At half- pint one o'clock tbe Jury found a true bill for wilful murder against Otfoi'jje Paul Hehrhain. The prisoner v? as then called to Ihe bar and . arraigned ; he pleaded Not Guilty. Tbe trial was ordered lo come on at ten o'clock on Friday morning, when it commenced accordingly; and after occupying the atteiifion of the Court and Jury f . r about ten hours, ( lie latter returned a verdict of Not Guilty. Ori Tin r i'ay commenced the laying- down of llie improved carriage- way pavement, intended to be generally used in future for the streets of the metro- polis. The spot selected for. the bfginrSn'g is- St. Jamcs's- Street, the loner part of which', nearest Ihe Palace, has been cleared, of Ihe old paving materials, and the new laid down for the space of twenty yards. It consists of oblong granite stones of equal'sizes, ami hewn to such a nicely, that, when laid together they form a very level sis'lircc. The intervals are grouted in with a strong cement, which' w hen dry becomes as hard and as durable as the stone itselt, and the whol.* pavement then forms one solid and compact body, without the liability of wearing into ruts or uheven- n- ss— ihe inconvenience of which has hitherto been s i justly complained of. The sfim< ss shoulder one under the edge of the other, arid are so pitched that any weight passing over Ihe surface is sustained bv the whole body, without the stress being on one particular part, as'there is a corresponding support from Ihe cro. vn or centre of the road to the extremity of the sides. Any portion of it can be easily removed for the purpose of mending the sewers, water- pipes, & c. The use of Talc for green and hot- house*, in place of glass, is strongly recommended by some gardeners, whilst others condemn it. A correspondent T> f ( he GardenerU Magazine says, " Dining a few days since, with a scientific friend, lie, previously to our summons to the dining- room, inquired if il would like a' peep into his vinery. Replying in' the affirmative, and that it Was a hob try of miirt-, we entered it. My attention was more caught with the contents of the house than the materials of its s'meture; but on his informing me that there was not a foot of glass in it, 1 looked up, and not perceiving any difference from glass iu tiie fight or colour, I did not know What he meant. On closer examination, 1 found that the whole of bW vinery was lighted with a vegetable pf'oduclion frotn Russia, which 1 tiling my friend called Tout, ( Talc ? a mineral, however,) and described it as answering every purpose of glass. No hail- stormy or even the stroke of a hammer, tan break it; fire has no effect upon if, and it may he cut With a scissors. He considers it cheaper than glass, aud has sent me a sheet of it, which peels off into several sheets of thinner substance. I intend to try it myself in my next vinery, so fully aril I - Satisfied of its advan- tages."

Insects of various kinds are discernible in the cavities of a common grain of saud. The nioil'ldy substance on damp bodies ex- hibits a region of minute plants. The particles of dusl on the wings of the butterfly prove, by the microscope, to he beautiful and well- arranged liltle feaihcrs. The sin face of our skin has scales resembling those of a fish, b it so minute, that a single grain would cover 250, and a single scale covers 500 pores w hence issue Ihe insensible per- spiration necessary fo health ; consequently a single grain of sand can cover 125,000 pores « f the human body.

LIVERPOOL ELECTION, [ From the Liverpool Alt>. iori, J Liverpool is commonly spoken of as mi open borough. Persona who arc not mfi mutely ac- quainted vVith the slate of our local parties suppose fliat any individual who possesses sufficient ability lo discharge the important and the highly respons- ible duties of a representative may offer himself to the choice of the electors with the best chance of ultimate success. Rut such persons make a Very great mistake. So far from Liverpool being an open borough, it is almost as close a- borough as tn. y iu fits iYlitj'esty's dominions. No man, be his talents what they may, has the least chance of becoming one of its representative*, unless he is introduced to the notice of the independent bur- gesses by the gentlemen who usually manage local electioneering matters, and move the electors al fiheir will, Just a* a showman moves his puppets. At I lie period of a general eleCfion, or when there is a- vacancy in fbe representation, these gentlemen meet iu conclave, knock their heads together, and fix on the man whom they think best qualified to represent* this great town iu Parliament. Having AcfI'M tfite matter to their oWn satisfaction, they yu through flie laree of getting tip a requisition to 1- lKe fortunate individual, inviting him to offer him- self as a candidate for the situation, and pledging themselves lo use etfefy " fatfal exertion" to secure his election as member for Liverpool, tie conies, is elected, and the independent freemen ave fiekled with the idea that they, innocent, unsuspecting creatures! have elected him, uud that lie is their Own dear member. This farce Has been played, periodically, in Liverpool, for the Inst eighteen years, fo tlie advantage of the nianogers. The last time it was played was on Thursday afternoon, when, much to the surprise of the tow n, two sets of performers enacted the same farce, but on different stages ! From this circumstance it is evident, that the parties have, at length, quarrelled amongst themselves, and that each party is about lo sot up a rival candidate for the choice of the freemen. The member mutter*, whose electioneering inan- ceuvres we have thus explained, for fhe benefit of fhe persons who may be ignorant of them,- do not consist ofmore than a score of individuals. Many of I heat are men of the first respectability in the town; men who, from their station in society as well as from the value of their property, are fairly entitled to act a prominent part in the election of our representatives. Still, viewed collectively, these member makers compose a mere oligarchy, who, in all their electioneering proceedings, stea- rf'rtv keep in view their own individual aggrandize- ment, the acquisition of patronage, and Ihe import- ance which their close and intimate connexion with some public man, of rank, talent, and station, gives tlieui over their equally respectable, though not intriguing, fellow- townsmen. We know every member of this odious oligarchy, and could show how many of them have, during the last eighteen years, benefitted by their connexion with the two great men who represented Liverpool throughout that long period. Mr. Canning aud Mr. Huskisson, whilst they were the representatives of Liverpool, were* emphatically the representatives of the oli- garchy. Attentive as those eminent men were to the applications of all their constituents, they were particularly attentive to the applications of the persons to whom we allude. If a poor fellow wished fo get a situation in the customs or in the excise, did be ever dream of obtaining his object, however insignificant that might be, unless his application bore the signatures of a number of the member's jierxt/ itfil friends, nnd the applicant were recommended to his especial notice by n leading man in Ihe oligarchy? Then, again, when Mr Canning or Mr. Iluskisson took it into their heads lo visit their constituents, did not the junto mono- polite the persons of the right honourable gentle, men? Or, if, ut any time, ihey permitted them to walk about, did they not always I tike particular t are to escort them through the town, exhibiting the lions, uuenged, to the* wondering inhabitant and deriving additional personal importance to themselves by showing the latter how intimate t- hey were with two of the greatest statesmen of Wolverhtimpton, < § - c. The legality of tolls lias been much questioned of late in many places; and a town's meeting was heltl . it Wolverhampton Public Office, on the 14th ult alien Mr. Lewis said that it was 5? 2 years since the market in Wolverhampton was established, and at that time there was neither a potatoe nor a turnip in England ; but now a poor woman could not bring a basket of either into their streets without being obliged to pay a tax, although the Charter did not say it word about toll. He was satisfied that the claim of toll was a gross usurpation of the rights of the public, and he trusted that they would not hesitate to inquire into ils legality, and take the best means of abolishing it. Mr. G. Robinson said he had beeft Consiilfcd pro- fessionally on'tlie subject by Mr. Lewis, aiid would therefor? take the opportunity of sfating the grounds on which he thought the resolutions to be proposed by that gentleman were entitled to1 the support of the meeting. The right of an individual to hold a fair or market could only exist by charter, ot prescription, which supposed a grant. Ill the present case the right was under a charter granted by Henry III to y F. gid de Erdington, the then Dean. of Wolverhampton, anil his successors, to hold a Fair once a- year, and a Market on Wednesday in every week. There was not a word in the charter respecting toll, and if v? as laid down in all the books, that as toil to the owner of a market, or stallage to the owner of the laml, was a matter of private benefit, and not incident to fhe franchise itself, if the king granted a' market without expressly granting toll, the patentee could claim none,- and the market was free. It was also equally well settled that if the king granted a toll which Was ex- cessive, or without a sufficient consideration, the grant was void, and the market free; for though the king, in the erection of a fair or market, might grant that, the patentee should have a reasonable toll, it might be in consideration of some benefitas repairs or the like, accruing from it to those who traded At Ihe market. If the moriey claimed was fuf sfalhige, it could only be demanded in fhe ancient market place, at Wolverhampton, where was, most probably, a space of land originally dedicated by the Dean'for Ihe purpose of his charter— the Dean could have no right lo take stallage for things set upon flit'land Of oilier people, and the streets of the town were vested in Ihe Commissioners of the Town Act, for the pur- poses of their trust and the benefit of the public, but not for the profit of an individual. Mr. Walket believed that the Marquess of Cle ve- land Wily received £ 20 a- yenr for these to'Is.- What his Lordship's lessee made of them he was perhaps not at liberty to conjecture, but it was well known to be a considerable sum. He could not suppose that if the matter was represented to Lord Cleveland he would wish to continue such a tax upon the town. Mr. George. Robinson said the Marquess of Cleve- land, being irtily lessee, could not give up the claim, and the fee was in the Dean, as church properly. The Commissioners of the Tow n Act, however, had a power to purchase fhe tolls under some of the pro- visions of lhat Act. Mr. Lewis— Yes; but if the town is to let Lord Cleveland's lessee go on collecting tolls as lie now does— increasing the amount, from day to day, at his pleasure, in all the streets of the town, on Saturdays as well as Wednesdays— at what sunt will the Com- missioners have to purchase them ? Not at £ 20 a- year, as Lord Cleveland receives, but at £ 300 or £ 400 a- year, as his lessee makes of the bargain. Charters to hold markets were not given for the bene- fit of individuals, but for the good of the public at large, and the owner of a market could not be en- titled to toll, unless he gave a quid pro quo; and here the public had mi benefit whatever: neither the Deait not his lessee did any thing for this toll they exacted. In a late trial respecting Ihe right of the Corporation of Cambridge fo continue talis there, this principle was recognized by the Judges of the Court of King's Bench, and their opinion was worth having. The Judge who tried the cause told the Jury, that in order to support the tolls a prescription must be proved, coeval with the building of the toicn itself. The motion to the Court was to set aside ( ric Verdict on the ground of misconception, but they gave jndg- nient in accordance with the opinion of the Judge at the trial; antl further said, that when no such pre- set- races, and lays bets, and plays at cards, and some- times wins and sometimes loses ; he gets into scrapes and fights duels ; and he finds himself not e the richer for bis winnings, aud much the poorer for his losings; and if be cannot spend or lose his money fast enough himself, he has myriads of friends, who will borrow it of him, and do their best to assist him in dispersing if. Then at last he smashes, or is done up, and then all the world, with ils long moral phiz, says—" What a pity it is that bis friends led him' into such e& travagance 1" At midnight there is a noise in the streets, women are shrieking and men are hallooing, and some are calling for help ; and there is a well- dressed man swearing at a constable who attempts to hold him, and the well- dressed man has obviously been rolled in the dirt; his hat is as Hat as a pancake, his eyes are as red as herrings, anil his tongue is like a weathercock in a whirlwind, and lie must be trussed like a boiled rabbit before he can be managed ; ami all the accoant he can give of himself the . next morning is,- that he had been dining with a few friends. THE DRY OF ALGIERS AT NAPLES. It is said that the Neapolitan cftiirrf, moved by the petitions of some scores' of English dilettanti, lords and commoners, have serious thoughts of requesting his Highness of Algiers fo remove to Leghorn,' of go back to the sunny shores of the Land of LiOiiS. Since he flat? afiived, the persons Ofth'csfi no1> fe a'fcseu'lees have appeared beggarly, theif dresses contemptible,, and theft- nrttstaehi'bs not to' b; e named as the' pro'duct of fife b'tnnau visage,- Tlie splendid Moor gives a' seqhiiii for every pan1 of theirs, which is the eiact proportion of a guinea Moorish to a shilling British his w'Sfife < liiiitz turban, his crimson velvet caftaivhis green silk trnwsers, his diamond- studded dagger,- his gold- hilted scimitar, his rings, bracelets, pipe,, a^ d girdle,- each of them worth half the repl- rolf of our best finished daudy ; aud above all, his beard sleek, rich, ami perfumed— a grand national pro- duct, of which ull the coaxing, combiner, aud curling of all Ihe valels in Naples cannot produce the remotest similitude— have thrown the whole race of those delicate creatures into unutterable despair.- The moment the magnificent Moor appears abroad, the countesses fly after him, the duchesses desert the foreign ambassadors, aud the *' principesnas" will not waste a smile upon an English' lord, even with three months' allowance in M. Faleotir t's hands'. To pistol or sabre the infidel, would be the obvious English mode;' but he is reckoned one of the best allots on fhe earth, his scimitar couid cut through a turban, and the experimentalist would run a fair ehauee of being sliced into fragments before he ted made fln'ee passes. Poison would be the natural Neapolitan mode, as the stiletto would bo the llafiaii, in general1. But he is so surrounded with guafds as fo be . completely inaccessible ; and, between his valeis and his double barrelled and gold- tnouitfed pistols,- the thing is beyond the calibre of the most desperat e dandy. In the mean time his highness carries ou the African, administration in his Palazzo in very superior style, , , K " One of his servants haiT been; guilty of some- act of disobedience, and was sentenced to death for it. The Neapolitan porter was directed to procure a cart to carry away a corpse; he asked, if any body iu fhe house was dead, and received for answer that the execution Woiild take place in a few hours. Ou this he ran to fetch a commissary of police^ who gave Ihe Dey to understand that lie was not to fake justice into his own hands at Naples, but must leave it to the government. When the Dey received the news of the events in Frauce, he exclaimed, ' God is great! Charles drove me from nty throne— novv his people have driven him away."— Monthly Magazine. FRANCE. The debates in the French Chamber of Deputies, last week, have been' more than usually interesting. M. Manguin, who may be considered as the head— in the Chambers, at least, of the French radicals, and who is very popular in Paris, made a direct attack upon the Ministers in very energetic language. lie accused them of hostility to liberty at home, and neglect of the national interests and security abroad. They were defended hy Messrs. Dupin and Cassimir Perrier ; who accused Manguin and his friends Of being actuated by a desire of getting into place ; but this, though extremely probable, does not prove that the present French ministers are not incapable or Corrupt. The fact is, that they have shown little energy or aptitude for business since their appointment, and they are decidedly unpopular. In some respects they have proved themselves very ready to act— as liberals generally do when they get into power— as vigor- ously against what they call licentiousness as the most despotic of the ministers whom they have suc- ceeded. While they were in opposition, meddling with the liberty of the press, or controlling popular meetings, were crimes of the most unpardonable enormity. Now that they are in office, it appears very proper to put down, by the strong arm of the law, any writings that are unpalatable to the existing administration, or societies which cannot, perceive the happiness of being governed by a Cabinet of pam- phleteers and squib- manufacttfrcrs. If the political rluIN, which exist in great force in Paris, antl which fhey are endeavouring to suppress by sending troops among them, and prosecuting th'eic office- bearers in courts of justice, be dangerous to the peace or liber- tics of France ( and there can be little doubt that they are objects of just suspicion), they must be opposed by firmer and more practical hands than those at present entrusted with the chief management of French affairs. It does not require any great powers of divination to prophesy that the Cabinet will be broken up before Christmas. There will then be a dissolution of the Chamber of Deputies, and the new returns will be, iri all probability, of a more democratic character than the last. As a great and just clamour exists against the law which excludes all persons under forty from the Chambers, if will be repealed or modified, and the right of voting will be considerably extended.. Another debate related to it proposal for the removal of Ihe remains of Bonaparte from St. Helena to France. In the inflammable state of French feel- ing at present, this measure might not be prudent. It will examine the proposed Belgic constitution, modify it where it is necessary, and will cause it to be executed in all Belgium as the definitive consti- tution. « DE POTTER, « CH. ROGIER, " S.

MONSTER OF THE DEEP'.— A singular fish was taken a few days since in the Severn, by some fishermen, near Arlingham, iu this county ( Glou- cestershire), of which we have been favoured with the following description :—' The weight of the creature is upwards of 80lbs. and its length not more than three feet. If possesses an immense head, and a mouth that measures 24 inches wide when open ; its eyes are placed in the back part of the head looking towards the tail, arid in front projects a piece of red bone, sharp at the ex tremity, and resembling the' horn of the fabled unicorn; the teeth are like those of a beast. The body is abruptly sloped off from tfie head so as to be exlremely small in the middle, but it swells out to an enormous size in the tail ; the skin is soft and smooth, ' ike that of an eel ; and instead of fins there are two members somewhat resembling the arms of a man, furnished with five projections at the end of each, not unlike four fingers and a thumb.— Cheltenham Chronicle. The various Acts of Parliament necessary for the completion of the Manchester aud Liverpool rail- way cost £ 70,000. So easy is the motion of the carriages on the railroad, that when one of them was going at the rate of 24 miles an hour, a passenger might have held a bumper of wine in Ilia hand without the risk of spilling it. EQUITY.— A gentleman, resident at Harrow, made frequent complaints to the masters of the great school there, of his garden being stripped of ils fruit, even before it became ripe— but to no purpose. Tired of applying to the masters for redress, he at length appealed to the boys, and sending for one to his house, be said, " Now, my good fellow, I'll make this arrangement with you and your companions : let the fruit remain on the trees till it becomes ripe, and I promise to give you half." The boy coolly replied, " I can say nothing ..-. , -. , , , ... ,, . . i c ., , ,. to the proposition, Sir, myself, but will make it It is plain from the debate, that, m spite of the loud tfl< M, ft { o , he ,. est ot- the boy9 and illtorm vou of professions m favour Of treedortt Which are ho\ v so -- " abundant in Paris, the " great soldier" is' still fhe god of their idolatry, ami that his victories atone for his tyranny and misgovernment. Otherwise we should' consider it strange enough that the no:; who but driven nut Charles X. and are meditating the capital punishment of Prince Polignac and his friends, for having restricted the press, antl attempted to modify the manner of elections of a legislative Chamber, are now busy in extolling the memory of a military despot who abolished all political writing whatever, except his own, and who thrust the Chambers of his day out of the windows of their hall at the point of the bayonet. Discovery of a Murderer, by the Force of Conscience, [ FROM THE FAMILY LIBRARY.] " Jarvis Malcham was pay- serjeant in a regiment, where he was so highly esteemed as a steady and . accurate man, that he was permitted opportunity to iption could be maintained, it was necessary to eml)(, zzle consiilerable part of the money lodged in prove that the Corporation had some street, to repair, or some such thing to do, in order to entitle them to Collect toll. It was also held in the books that the King can give no toll, unless lie can show a cor- responding benefit to those on whom the toll was levied / and this not being shewn in the present case, the verdict already given must be affirmed The judgment was given on the 8th of February last. The following resolutions were passed :— 1. That, as the Charter granted to the Dean of Wolverhampton and his Successors to hold a Market in Wolverhampton one Day in the Week, viz. Wed- ncsda v, does not include any right of Toll, it is, in the opinion of this Meeting, questionable whether any Toll can, on the ( Wednesday) Market- day, be legally claimed ; and that, even if usage has warranted such a tax, it must be limited to the antient Market place, and cannot be demanded in the Streets of the Public, nor increased in Amount at the will of the Dean's Lessee. 2. That with respect to the Toll recently claimed and collected on Saturdays, this Meeting is decidedly of opinion that it is an illegal and grievous Imposition upon the Public, which ought not to be submitted to any longer. 3. That prompt and efficient measures should be adopted to rescue the Town from such Exactions and Encroachments upon the Rights of the Public antl the Labour of the Poor, and that a Committee be ap- pointed for that purpose. FRIENDS. the age : This junto, or cycle, or oligarchy, call if by w hat i. tiiue you please, is now making an attempt ( o per. ptitiate the influence which rirci! ni> tuiic. cg have enabled the members lo acquire in our elections, by endeavouring lo force another public mall on the independent freemen, ' the oligarchy, as we l ave intimated above, has, since the lamented death of Mr. lluskisson, split into two rival fac- tious, each of which is desirous of bringing in ils own man. One faction is clamorous for Sir Robert Peel, the other for Mr. Charles- Grant, Hut their object is the same. The Peel faction want to make Sn Robert the member, because he is a cabinet minister, and because, being high iu office, he pos sesscB great patronage und great influence; patron- nge aud influence of which the oligarchists know ibe value, and which, lor their own personal aud family aggrandizement, us well as for the main- tenance of their own individual local importance, they are extremely anxious to grasp into their own bauds. Besides, Sir Robert is blessed with a princely fortune, and keeps a splendid establish- ment ; so that, when any of Ihe junto visit London, they w ill have Ihe right of entree into the baronet's mansion. The Grant faction is as sensible us any set of men can possibly be to the importance ofthe tow n having a cabinet minister for its representative, nnd especially when the members are instrumental in making his election sure; but they are very hostile to Sir Robert Peel, and though Mr. Charles Grant is, unfortunately, out of office, they hope and believe that he will, ere long, find him- self, once more snugly seated at the Board of Trade, and that lie will be enabled to repay his friends, " some with port ami some with praise." Thus selfishness marks Ihe conduct of both fac- tions ; and thus, whilst they arc ostensibly pursuing what they affect to consider Ihe interests of the public, they are endeavouring to promote their own personal aggrandizement and their ow n individual importance. The independent freemen of Liverpool will, tin the coming occasion, as they have on all past ones, submit to the dictation of lhat division of Ihe junto which contains the greatest number of the most notorious and influential member makers. Al present, Sir Robert Peel's faction possesses this advantage over ihe Grant faction. Sir Robert must, therefore, be elected; unless, which we deem highly improbable, the electors, spurning the nttempts which will be made to bribe aud Io cor- rupt them, should reject the golden idol set up by the oligarchy, and leach the junto the folly of attempting to dictate, as Ihey have heretofore d tatcd, lo the ndependeut ftetineu of Liverpool. Every thing that Cicero has said in his treatise De Amicitia is very fine, and very good, and very true; hut he does not seem to have been altogether aware of the fulness of meaning contained in the word friends. A man invites a few friends to dine with him. They come, they eat, they drink, they talk, they criticise, they depart. They have praise and b| ame for the cook, and they speak learnedly of the wine, aud, in nine eases out of ten, somew hat cen- soriously of the host. For either he has been too ostentatious in his liberality, or too niggardly in bis hospitality ; and he seems almost required to ask pardon of those w hom he has fed for the manner in which he has fed them. Then, the entertainer becomes in his turn entertained, and takes his turn also in the delights of culinary criticism and friendly ccnsoriousncss. These are friends by the table, cemented by the various combinations of fish, flesh, and fowl, closely adhering so long as that lasts which holds them together; but that failing, they fail, and depart and separate. A man writes a book, prose or poetry, as the cas „ may be, he, of course thinks it very fine ; but he is not quite satisfied tliat all the world must of necessity be of the same opinion ; therefore, he shows it to his friends, and asks their candid opinion ; and they read it and give him, excuse the pun, gentle reader, their candid opinion. They advise him by all means to publish it— they arc sure it must succeed. It is published and it does not succeed, and then these friends wonder that any man could be so simple as to imagine that such a thing ever could succeed, anil they wonder that he did not see lhat what they had said was not their real opinion ; but being his friends, how could they do otherwise than praise the book. A man grows rich and rises in the world. There- upon all his neighbours and acquaintance con- gratulate him upon his good fortune, and are ready, in Ihe plenitude of their wisdom, to teach him how to spend his newly- acquired wealth. And he that, before his prosperity, scarcely knew that he had a friend in the world, is now informed how delighted ( lis countless friends are to hear of his success. A man grows poor and sinks in the world.— Forthwith lie hears, or he may hear, if he have patience to listen to them, sage lectures upon prudence, and many edifying dissertations on dis- cretion. And he receives many a humiliating les- son, and observes many an altered look ; and he has a great deal of pity and very little help, and he is recommended iu the most delicate manner imaginable not to spoil the pleasures of his pro- sperous acquaintance by his unprosperous presence, and while he fancies that he lias not a friend in the world, he is given to understand that bis friends are very sorry for him, and bis friends, as all his friends say, ought to do something for him; but unfortunately he has tired all his friends out. A young man conies to his fortune as soon as he comes of age. He buys horses and dogs, and runs his bands for pay of soldiers, bounty of recruits, then a large sum, and other charges which fell within his duty. He was summoned to join his regiment, from a town where he had been on the recruiting service, antl this perhaps under some shade of suspicion. Matcham perceived discovery was at hand, and would have deserted, had it not been for Ihe presence of a little drummer lad, who was the only one of his party appointed to attend him. lu the desperation of bis crime, he resolved to murder the poor boy, and avail himself of some balance of money to make his escape. He meditated this wickedness the more readily, that the drummer, he thought, had been put as a spy on him. He perpetrated fhe crime, and changing his dress afler the deed was done, made a long walk across the country to an inn on the Portsmouth road, where be halted, and went to betl, desiring to be called when the first Portsmouth coach came. The waiter summoned him accordingly ; but long after remem- bered, that when lie shook the guest by the shoulder, his first words as he awoke Were, " My God ! I did not kill him." Ma'cham went to the sea- port by the coach, and instantly entered as an able- bodied lands- man or marine, 1 know not which, llis sobriety and attention to duty gained him the same good opinion of the officers in his new service which he had enjoyed in the army. He was afloat for several years, and behaved remarkably well in some actions. At length the vessel came into Plymouth, was paid off, and some of the crew, amongst whom wati Jarvis Matcham, were dismissed as too old for service. He and another seaman resolved to walk to tow n, anil took the route by Salisbury. It was when within two or three miles of this celebrated city, that they were overtaken bv a tempest so sudden, and accompanied w ith such vivid lightning, and thunder so dreadfully loud, that the obdurate conscience of the old sinner began to be awakened. He expressed more terror than sermed natural for one who was familiar with the war of elements, and began to look anil talk so wildly, that bis companion became aware that, something more than usual was the matter. At length Matcham complained to his companion that the stones rose from the road and flew after him. He desired the man to walk on the other side ofthe highway, to see if they would follow hiin when he was alone. The sailor complied, and Jarvis Matcham complained that the stones still flew after him, and did not pursue Ibe other " But what is worse," he added, coining up to his companion, and whispering, with a tone of mystery and fear, " who is that little drummer boy, and what business has he to follow us so closely ?"•— " I can see no one," answered the seaman, infected by the superstition of his associate. " What! " not see that little boy with the bloody pantaloons!!" ex- claimed the secret murderer, so much to tlie terror of his comrade, that be conjured liim, if he had any- thing on his mind, to make a clear conscience, as far as confession could do it. The criminal fetched a deep groan, and declared that he was unable longer to endure the life which he bat! led for years. He then confessed the murder of the drummer, and added, that as a conside rable reward had been offered, he wished his comrade to deliver him up to the magistrates of Salisbury, as he would desire a ship- mate to profit by his fate, which he was now con- vinced was inevitable. " Having overcome his frientl's objection to this mode of proceeding, Jarvis Matchaui was surrendered to justice accordingly, and made a full confession of his guilt. But before the ( rial the love of life returned. The prisoner denied his confession, and pleaded Not Guilty. By this time, however, full evidence had heen procured from other quarters. Witnesses appeared from his former regiment to prove his identity wilh the murderer and deserter, and Ihe waiter remembered the ominous words which he had spoken w hen he awoke him to join the Portsmouth coach. Jarvis Matcham was found guilty and executed. When his last chance Of life was over, he returned to his confession, anil with'his dying breath averred, and truly, as lie thought, the truth of the vision on Salisbury plain. Similar stories might be produced, showing plainly that, under the direction of Heaven, the influence of superstitious fear may be the appointed means of bringing the criminal to repentance for his own sake, and to punishment for the advantage of society." The French papers received by express, on Thurs- day, bring a most important decree, calling forth no less an army than 108,000 men. Since the ac- cession of the present king, an army of 72,000 had already been called out. The disbanding of the Swiss troops, the loss on various accounts in the battles of July, and Ihe events consequent thereupon, which diminished the strength of the army, the uselessness for the present of the troops lying in Algiers, See. require, of course, an adtiilional levy, but surely nothing equal in amount to so enormous an additional army as this.— It has occasioned no small panic in Paris, where an impression prevails among some classes that so large a force would not be raised unless some apprehensions, arising from the internal state of France, or some designs of foreign war, were in existence. As far as all appearances go, France is tranquil. The clubs may annoy the government, but it would seem that the law is quite sufficient to reach any danger on that head. Some rioting, but evidently of no great consequence, exists in the south, particularly about Nismes, but that cannot be more than matter of police. The eyes, therefore, of political speculators are turned upon what part France means to play abroad. All the European powers have acknowledged the new order of affairs, and unless there is something which we do not see iii the dis- position of France itself— the army must be intended for Belgium. Yet the French government professes to act with other powers of Europe in the matter of that wretched country. It would be a lamentable thing if the world were to be plunged into a war to gratify a few incendiaries ( and the worthy brother- hood behind) in their seditious projects, which, if successful, will be a death- blow to the prosperity and independence of Belgium itself. It has been remarked, that one of the reasons alleged for calling forth a new levy— viz. the necessity of replacing the army now at Algiers— gives a colour for supposing that the new force is wanted without delay, as it would not require any very long lime to recal that army.

The Brabant fortresses are gradually joining the Belgians. The citadel of Namnr has surrendered ; so has the town of Dinant; and the provisional government has appointed a governor for the pro- vince of Antwerp, in the expectation that the town will fall into their hands. The Dutch appear to have been very ill prepared iu their Belgic fort- resses; and they are now conducting themselves so supinely that we" suppose they depend wholly upon negotiation.

He was conveyed to is house as soon us possible, and the best medical aid procured; but the accident was too fatal, as he shortly afler breathed his last, leaving an afflicted family and a numerous acquaintance to lament his- death. The Suffolk papers of last week contained an- nouncements of upwards of one hundred and twenty sales of farming stock upon distinct holdings. The ales this year appear to be increased in nnniber by the circumstance, lhat several large landowners ' ive discovered that they do not get the better rents, by cultivating their men farms ; fhey have therefore, it would appear, determined to let them. Amongst others quitting business, we find his Grace the Duke of Grafton, and Sir W. F. F. Middleton, Bart ofShruhland Park. A MAN'S MAKING HIS OWN WILL.— The late Thomas Soutlnvood, Esq. of Angers Leigh, near Taunton, whose decease was announced a few months ago, and whose remarkable will, it will be remembered, excited much i nterest at the time, it w appearR was guilty of the legal folly of making his own will, and - when he bequeathed his extensive properly, consisting of the manor of Taunton aud Taunton Deane, and about SCO acres of the richest find in the Parishes of Pitminster and Angers Leigh, to his mail- servant, Mr. Robert Mattock, he forgot to add the words " his heirs;" so that Mr. Mattock has only his life iuterest in Mr. Sputh- woou's testamentary bequest. It is ouly about 8 years ago that Mr. Sonthwood purchased of the late Bishop of Winchester the extensive seigniory of Taunton and Taunton Deane, for which he gave the sum of £ 31,000, the Bishop reserving to his suc- cessors the right of treasure- trove aud . all mines and minerals found in the seigniory. The copy- holds of this manor, are held uuder peculiar customs, one of which is conformable to the pastoral law of the Patriarchal times, namely, lhat the youngest sou his heir to his father. The alleged heir- at- law of Mr. Southwood has advertised the property to be sold, subject to Mr. Mattock's life interest, ac- cording lo Ihe terms of Mr. Southwood's will. One of the Dutch girls who obtain a livelihood by selling brooms, applied to the magistrates at Lambeth- street for a summons against the man w ho brought her over to this country, for withholding her wages. It appeared from her statement, that it was the practice of the dealers iu brooms to bring over a number of girls, at miserable wages, which are contracted to be paid when the girl returns again to Germany. - Many, therefore, have an opportunity of defrauding the girls of their miserable pittance; and this case, from the girl's statement, appeared likely to add to the number. She had contracted for Is 8d. a- w0ek to sell brooms about Ihe country. Ou this pittance she was to board, clothe, and lodge herself, which she had only been able to do by the bounty aud charity of the gentry in the country. Her master had run into her debt to the amount of £ 2, aud was preparing to quit England. The niatristrates ordered that the summons should be immediately granted. On Monday last, Mr. Sly, the supervisor of Excise, Greenwich, and two officers, discovered an extensive private soap- manufactory at Bell- Green, near Sydenham, and seized about one ton and half of fcoap, together with a quantity of materials, and a complete plant of utensils, capable ( il is said) of manufacturing three tons of soap weekly, by which the revenue would be defrauded to the amount of £ 80 per week. The parties are supposed to have commenced their operations about three weeks. THE LATE LORD BLANTYRF..— This gallant and lamented nobleman was born in 1775, and was conse- quently about 55 years of age when he so unfortu nately met his death at Brussels. His lordship served in Holland in 1790; in Egypt, as Aid- de- Camp to General Stuart, . in 1801 ; in the expedition to Pomer- ania and Zealand in 1807 ; and with the Duke of Wellington in Spain and Portugal in 1809. His lord ship held the rank of Major- Genera! in the army, and that of a Companion of the Bath. He was also Lord Lieutenant, of Renfrewshire. His lordship married, 25th of February, 1813, Frances, second daughter of the Hon. John Rodney, Chief Secretary to the Go- vernment at Ceylon, and grand- daughter of the cele- brated Admiral Lord Rodney, by w hom he has left a surviving family of eight children, the youngest only a few mouths old. The present peer, who has sue- ceeded to his title under such unfortunate circum- stances, is only twelve years of age. In the garden of a cottager named John Wilson, at Bankrnd, Broughton- in- Furness, there was lately cut a cauliflower of the following extraordinary dimen- sions, after it had been separated from the stalk close to the branching of the flowers and all the leaves re- moved :— Circumference at the base 3 feet 7 inches ; measures from one side to the other over the top 2 feet 2 inches ; weight 9lbs. 7oz. Many plants of the same species, much less remarkable for size, though with the advantage of superior cultivation, have been exhibited for prizes at horticultural meetings, and proved successful.— Cumberland Paccfuet. REDUCTIONS IN THE CUSTOMS.— We are enabled to stale, oil unquestionable authority, that govern- ment has resolved on effecting material reductions in the collection of the Customs. Mr. Lushington, from London, has for some weeks been personally inspecting a number of stations in Scotland for this purpose. We are informed that the saving to the public consequent on these reductions is to be somewhere about £ 00,000 per anumn. Elgin Courier. The population of the parish of St. Marylebone alone ( upwards of 120,000) is nearly equal to that of any town in England. The venerable Bishop of Salisbury ( late of St. David's), has been pleased to signify to Dr; Llewellin his intention to admit as Candidates for Holy Orders such Members of St. David's College as can produce testimonials of having resided the prescribed period of four years, and of having passed their Examinations iu Hebrew, & c. FRIENDLY SOCIETIES.— It ought to be generally known that by an Act of Parliament passed in th& 10th year of his late Majesty, chap. 56, all the acts heretofore passed relating to friendly societies arc repealed, but such repeal is not to invalidate of affect any thing done before the passing of the above- mentioned Act. And by the 40th clause all societies already established are required to Conform to the provisions of the new Act, before June, 1832, otherwise they will then cease to be entitled to the privileges and provisions of the repealed acts. UNKNOWN FACULTY OF THE RAVEN.— With the exception of the Rnipe, no bird seems more uni- versally spread over the surface of our globe than the raven, inhabiting every zone, the hot, the temperate, the severe, feeding upon and removing noxious substances from the eafth, of which it obtains information by means of a faculty we have little conception of. Sight it cannot be ; and we know not any t'etor escaping from an anitnal, previous to putrescence, so subtile as to call these, scavengers of Nature from the extremity of one Country to that of another; for it is manifest, from the height which they preserve in their flight, and the haste they are making, that their departure has been for Some far distant station, having a remote and urgent object in contemplation.— Lardner's Cabinet Cyclopccdid.

PATENT INVENTIONS.—- On Saturday evening last,- mtist of the respectable inhabitants of Holywell, among whom was the worthy Vicar, had an op- portunity of witnessing fhe first public experi- ment of Mr. Williams's ( surgeon) tnventiou for locking tile wheels of a carriage when at full speed, aud of liberating the horses. Four ponies were yoked to a beautiful four- wheeled carriage, and afler they bad been stimulated to their greatest speed, at a signal given, the wheel was locked and the animals liberated, leaving the driver and car- riage stationary iu the middle of the road. The experiment was most satisfactory, aud all present seemed to participate in the pleasure the patentee must have felt at the success of his ingenuity. His next exhibition is expected to be in Chester. DESCRIPTION OF THE INN AT CALAIS.— On the first view of our hotel, I. exclaimed, " How French !" There were the court and its treillage, its vine and it$ laburnum, and its kitchen on the ground- floor, with its bright batterie shining through the scarlet geraniums of its open windows. There were the black eyes and white caps, popping in and out of its many doors ; and the ruins of an old diligence, with its tackle of ropes, en flute, under the old remise ; and the good- humoured host, with his military air, and the grace fill hostess, with the manner^ of a well- bred lady, ( for in France the men are all gentlemen, and tha women all ladies ; the universal courtesy inci- dental to a genial temperament). This was my first impression • my second extorted the ex- clamation of " ITow English 1" Not a sanded floor,- nor a Sullied parquet are now visible. Nothing but English curpets and English clean- liness; English delt* and English damask; not a rag of fhe old huckaback left, which seemed formerly to serve the double purposes of bed and table. The ostler, too, speaks English to our servant, with all the classic slang of " Lad- lane," of the " Golden Cross." The garcon cries " Com- ing np?" and the fea and muffins are worthy the Talbot at Shrewsbury. Aii horny too! not tha " crack, crack, crack !" of old associations, but a " reg'lar" mail- coach horn; the " Bang- up," from Boulogne, cantering into the yatd, with horses curvetting, and uot a hair turned— a whip, that " tips the silk" like a feaiher—° ribbons," not ropes— a coachman, ail capes and castor— a guard that cries " All right f"— aud the whole " turn out" worthy of the four- in- hand club ! Not a jack- boot, not a queue, not a powdered toupee left ; nothing to ridicule, nothing to blame. " tl- n'y- a plus de Pyrenees/" The age of tourists and of chivalry is alike over. What luck to have writfeft my France, while France was still so French '— Lady Morgan's France in 1829- 30. A LIBERAL LANDLORD— Sir George Crewe,- of Calke Abbey, Derbyshire, is a great landed pro- prietor, and highly and justly esteemed by bis numerous tenantry. Having duly and considerately weighed in his comprehensive and patriotic mind the difficulties the British farmers have to en- counter iu these trying times of heavy taxation and parochial and county expense, lie has recently set an example worthy to be known and followed by every landed proprietor in the kingdom. Sir George, though young in years, unites to the elegant scholar a wise head and good heart. Like a sage and wise parent studying the welfare of n large family, he assembled his principal tenantry around him, and thus addressed them :-—'.* 1 have called you together to consult with you, and to have your several opinions as to the rental I ought to charge upon my estates in your respective districts, so as to enable you to live comfortably and bring up your families respectably, as in olden lime ; to cultivate your farms in a proper and effective manner, and to give employment to the labourer. I have called twelve of you who are tha largest occupiers, to request you will return to your respective districts, and call the lesser oc- cupiers around you; and after you have consulted together, and each of you have returned to me an answer, I will then reduce your rentals accord- ingly." The deputies assembled were so over- whelmed with the philanthropic feeling and the liberal offer of their landlord, that they unani- mously returned him their warmest thanks, and stated their willingness to leave themselves eutirely lo his generosity ; some even expressing their satisfaction with their then rental. However, a general reduction immediately took place of from 3s. to 5s. per act'e.— Sporting Magazine for Oct. ARTIFICIAL EYES.— A Dr. Scudder, of Court land street, New York, has announced to the one- eyed public of America that he has invented artificial eyes,, which will " roll, wink, and turn at Ihe pleasure of the wearer, quite as well as the natural ones." Some most tumultuous proceedings have recently taken place throughout the county of Kent, arising from the outrageous conduct of agricultural mobs of the low er classes going about demolishing the threshing machines of the farmers. The secrecy with which they have committed these outrageous attacks upon property, in some degree assimilates their proceedings to those of the followers of " Captain Itock," in Ireland. The magistrates have offered a reward of £ 100 to any person on whose information the first indictment terminating iu a conviction will be laid against the instigators or ringleaders in these disturbances. When we have been accustomed to consider any disease as incurable, it is gratifying to find that any plan has been discovered by which human misery may be alleviated ; Ibis particularly applies lo those distressing maladies, Scrofula and'Scurvy, which have hitherto baffled nearly all attempts to eradicate them ; but the great number of cases in which Mr. Lignum's Antiscorbutic Drops have effected a complete cure leads us to hope, that the day is not far distant when even these complaints will no longer be the opprobrium of the medical art .— See first page.
