FROM TIIE PARIS PAPERS. ( From Galignani's Messenger of Saturday.) The modifications of the Cabinet ( as we anticipated) were completed last night. The Moniteur of this morning promulgates royal ordonnances, by which M. Persil, Deputy, Procureur- General of the Royal Court, is appointed Keeper of the Seals, and Minister of Justice and of Worship, in the room of M. Barthe, who is created a peer. of Prance, and made first President of the Court of Accounts, in the room of M. Barbe Marbois, who resigns, but who is invested with the dignity of honorary first President of the Court of Accounts. M. Thiers, Deputy, Minister of Commerce and Public Works, is appointed Minister of the Interior in the room of Count d'Argout, who is made Governor of the Bank of France in the place of the Duke de Gaete. M. Duchatel, Deputy, is nominated Minister of Commerce in the room of M. Thiers. The separation of the attributions of the Minister of the Interior and of Commerce will be hereafter detei mined by a special ordinance. Vice- Admiral Count de Rigny, Deputy, and Minister of the Marine and Colonies, is appointed Minister of Foreign Affairs in the room of the Dnke de Brojlie. Vice- Admiral Baron Roussin, Ambassador at Constantinople, is named Minister of the Marine in the room of Admiral de Rigny, who, however, will continue to exercise the functions of his late office till the arrival of Admiral Roussin. M. Martin du Nord, Deputy, and Advocate- Gencral of the Court of Cassation, is appointed Procureur- General of the Royal Court in the room of M. Persil. It will be seen, therefore, that the Ministers who retain their previous offices are Marshal Soult, President of the Council and Minister of War; M. Humaun, Minister of Finance'; and M. Guizot, Minister of Public Instruction. The Duke of Olranto has resigned his post as sub- Chief of the Staff of ihe National Guards, but his resignation is said to be foreign to politics. Lord Durham, Mr Ellice, Dr Bowiing, and several English officers, yesterday went to view the Depot General de la Guerre. Marshal Soult had signified his intention to accompany them, but was prevented by the embarrassments occasioned by the sudden resignation of the Duke de Broglie; they were consequently attended by General Pelet, the Director of ( lie Depot. The following is an extract from a Madrid letter of the 281h u l t . : — " M. de Sarmiento, the Portuguese Envoy, lias been presented officially to the Court at Aranjuez, which is equal to a formal recognition of Donna Maria by the Spanish Government. It has been decided, in a council of Ministers, that the ten thousand men about to enter Portugal shall be commanded by two of our best Generals, Moiillo and Rodil. The first division under Geneial Moriiio, will enter by Verin, in Gullioia ; and the second, commanded by General Rodil, by Ciudad Rodrigo. They will advance by Oporto, I lie siege of which they will raise, driving before them, at the point of the bayonet, all the Carlists and Miguelites ihey meet with in their way up to tlie gates of Santarem, now blockaded by the troops of Don Pedro ; the command of which is to be given to Count Villafior. The armies will there concert upon their joint operations of attack upon Santarem, which is the spot on which tbe Portuguese and Spanish question will be decided. An order has been issued for the troops to make their entrance on April 1st, in pursuance of a convention between the two Governments. party who cfimes immediately after lhem; and how constantly excites them against foreign countries, is that of the Imperialists; men equally powerful by their knowledge of public affairs, and by their influence in the public offices, which is still further increased by the support of the Tiers Parti. Almost all ' the King's military supporters belong to this party— Baron Fain, the Duke de Bassano, who wishes to be Minister for Foreign Affairs, & c. This party, which is not precisely that of the Mouvement, seeks to consolidate the throne of July at the expence of foreign countries. The King is himself, possibly, of this opinion, and Optimism reigns so strong at the Palace of the Tuileries, that the Cabinets would be strangely deceived if they were not convinced that, placed between the alternative of his own preservation and that of war, Louis Philip would decide for the latter. The King of the French will shrink as long as possible from a Ministry purely Imperialist; but sooner or later two cises will present themselves— either a revolution will bury the throne of July under the wreck it will give rise to, or a change of system be effected in the Cabinet against the will of the King, to the profit of the Imperialists. HOLLAND. The Hague, March 27. 1834. The undersigned, his Britannic Majesty's Charge d'Affaires, has been instructed by his Court to state to his Excellency the Baron de Ztiylen de Nyevelt, that reports have recently reached the British Government, which render it necessary for that Government to ask for information from the Cabinet o f t h e Hague. His Majesty's Government have been informed, that ah unusual degree of activity has lately prevailed in the naval and military services of Holland; that the Dutch naval force, in the mouth of the Scheldt, has been considerably increased; and that a large body of troops has been gradually concentrated in the neighbourhood of Breda, and has been placed in a state of preparation for active service in the Held. As the convention of May 1833 secures Holland against any attack from Belgium, and as Holland is not threatened from any other quarter, these movements, i f they have actually taken place, cannot be looked upon as intended for defence; on the other hand, his Majesty's Government cannot allow themselves to suppose, that, after the convention of May 1833, the Dutch < Tovernment can meditate a renewal of hostilities against Belgium. But, on matters of such extreme importance to all parties concerned, it is essential, that between Governments, which are alike animated by a sincere desire to maintain unimpaired their reciprocal relations of friendship, nothing like uncertainty should oe permitted for a moment to exist, and his Majesty's Government arc persuaded, that the Cabinet of the Hague will justly appreciate the considerations, which have rendered the present communication unavoidable. The undersigned is therefore instructed to ask the Baron de Zuylen whether it is true that the naval and military forces of his Netherland Majesty have recently been concentrated near to the confines of Belgium; and if so, for whatpurpose these preparations have been made ? The undersigned has the honour of renewing to his Excellency, the Baron 11. D. Zuylen de Nyevelt, the assurance ofhis highest consideration. ( Signed) G. J . J E R N I N G H A M. TO J i n JERKING HAM, CHARGE D'AFFAIRES OF HIS BRITANNIC MAJESTY. The Hague, March 29, 1834. The undersigned Minister of State, holding ad interim thc post of Minister of Foreign Affairs, has received the note which the Charge d'Affairesofhis Britannic Majesty did him the honour to address to him on the 27th March, in which he informs him " that an unusual degree of activity prevailed in the naval and military service of Holland ; that the Dutch naval force in the mouth of the Scheldt has been considerably increased; and that a large body of troops has been gradually concentrated in the neighbourhood of Breda, and has been placed in a state of preparation for active service in the field." The Charge d'Afl'aires, after alleging these facts, asks if they are true. The information subsequently received by the British Government has sufficiently proved to it how destitute of foundation were the reports which served for the ground of the above note. The undersigned, while he regrets that the English Government should have given such implicit credit as to make them the foundation of an official proceeding, is able to announce to the Charge d'Alfaires of his Britannic . Majesty that the flotilla destined for the Scheldt, after having passed the winter in port, lias resumed its ordinary station. Hitherto it has not been thought requisite to increase it. The cantonments- of the army are in the same state as tliey have hitherto been. This state of dispersion excludes all idea of an extraordinary concentration of force about Breda. No change has been made in the system of furloughs acted upon since the month of June last. Such is the state of calmness and tranquillity in Holland, in view of a country where for three or four months past nothing has been talked of but warlike enterprises, wlieie sums have been voted to increase its means of offence against Holland, where corps of troops have been put in motion, and where the most violent speeches against Holland are daily delivered from the tribune. These open and notorious facts would already have justified measures of precaution and security. The Outch Government has not thought fit yet to resort to them ; but, attentive to the provocations which take place, it will know how to unite its respect for treaties with the duty which is incumbent on it of watching on the honour and independence of the State. The undersigned embraces this opportunity to repeat to Mr Jerningham the assurance of his distinguished consideration. ( signed) II. DE SUYLEN VON NYEVELT. LONDON, A P R I L 7- Mis Majesty's grand annual banquet to the Duke of Wellington and the Knights of the Garter will take place on the 23d inst. The newly appointed Spanish Minister Count de Florida Blanca, has arrived in town from Paris. Dispatches were sent off on Saturday from the Colonial Ollice for the Marquis of Sligo and the other Governors of the West India Islands; and also for Lord Aylmer, the Governor of Lower Canada, and for the Lieutenant- Governor of New Brunswick. The insignia of a Civil Knight Grand Cross of the Bath has been sent to Lord Ponsonby, our Ambassador at the Porte. A declaration lias been published, signed by one hundred and one resident members of the Senate of the University of Cambridge, against granting to Dissenters degrees nt tlie Universities. The declaration, it is expected, will receive many additional signatures. We are happy to announce that Sir John Hersehel arrived safe at the Cape of Good Hope on the 16th of January last, and succeeded in landing all his instruments in good order. 1 Two candidates are already in the field for Perthshire, M r Robert Groeme, a distant cousin of Lord I. ynedoch, and Sir George Murray, whom Lord Ormelie defeated at the last election. Mr Robert Grteme is lo be the new Lord of the Treasury, says the Times, and he will have the Government influence. He is announced by the Times as " a man of talent and a man of business,"— admirable qualifications, certainly, for the representative of an important county, and a Treasury Lord. It is rather unfortunate, however, that Mr Graeme lias hitherto found no opportunity of displaying his latent abilities ; and therefore the praise of the Times looks very like an election puff. The fact is, that lie is indebted for his promotion to the l. ord Advocate, and tbe clique who have the disposal of Government patronage in Scotland ; not to bis peculiar fitness for tbe office, or even to his relationship to the gallant old Lord Lynedoch. There can be no kind of comparison between the personal claims of the two candidates to the representation of Perthshire. Sir George Murray has distinguished himself in Parliament and in office, and is well known to be a clever and industrious man ; whereas the public now bears of Mr Robert Gneine for the first time. Sir George, however, has the misfortune to be a Tory, and to be upheld by the once triumphant and still formidable band of the Anti- Reformers of Perthshire Spectator. After the recess Lord Wharncliffe intends to bring the subject of secondary punishments before the House of Lords. Now that the punishment of death is taken away in most cases, it is become absolutely necessary to devise some more effective secondary punishment. At the beginning of last year two gentlemen were commissioned by Government lo proceed to the United States, with the view of ascertaining whether the punishments adopted in various parts of the Union were better calculated than ours to strike terror into criminals, and deter them from future offences. These gentlemen, after pursuing their inquiry with zeal and perseverance for several months, last week landed at Liverpool. Their report will, as soon as possible, be laid before Parliament. One of ihe individuals selected by Government for this inquiry was Mr Henry Newman, a member of the Society of Friends, residing in our neighbourhood.— Worcester Journal. EXECUTION.— Henry Hughes, who was convicted at the late Surrey Assizes of a most atrocious offence, underwent the last sentence of the law this morning at the usual hour, on the top of Horsemonger Lane Gaol. Ever since the unfortunate man's condemnation he has given way to tbe deepest despondency and despair, although, in the interviews which he had with the reverend Chaplain, be acknowledged himself guilty of the offence imputed to him. There were an immense number of persons present to witness the execution. THE REVENUE. MEN- OF- WAR ON FOREIGN STATION'S— The A n - 1 dromacbe, for China, and Sparrowhawk, for South America, had touched at Madeira previous to the 24th ult. The Wolf arrived at the Cape of Good Hope on the 22d of January from Trincomalee and Mauritius, on her passage to England. The Challenger left Rio Janeiro for the Falkland Islands on the 21st of December, and the Satellite arrived at Rio on the 11th of January from Buenos Ayres, where the Hornet arrived on the 11th of December. The Conway, 28, arrived at Rio on the 1st of January from Bahia.— The Melville, 74 ( Vice- Admiral Sir John Gore), had arrived at Bombay on the 11th of December, and was expected to remain there three months. T H E N EW STEAM S H I P On T h u r s d a y c o n s i d e r - able interest was created on the river by the arrival of the new and splendid steam ship Dundee, from Scotland. She entered the pool with the colours of all nations flying from her rigging about half- past 10 o'clock, and at eleven was safely moored at the London Dock buoy, opposite the Wapping entrance. Three cheers greeted her first arrival in the Thames, from the people in waiting. This large steamer measures 180 feet in length on deck, and 51 feet in breadth over the paddles, makes up 107 betths for passengers, and her chief cabin, which is fitted up in the most splendid style, equal to any nobleman's drawing- room, and contains a library of books, is capable of conveniently accom. modating 100 passengers at dinner. Her engines are of 300 horse power, and are from the manufactory of Mr R. Napier. giving their mind to the great questions that come ! before them, and for bringing to their consideration that matured reflection, and that practical sobriety, which is the best security against rash projects- I t is a great mistake to suppose that Parliamentary business consists in a mere conflict of political parties. Many questions are brought under the consideration of the Legislature that have no connection with politics, as well as numerous laws affecting great and important interests in society. How necessary is it in this case that they who deliberate upon and pass such laws, should be known to their ' constituents; that they should possess a weight of character, a reputation for intelligence, and for a competent share of deliberative wisdom. Now, Sir George Murray i3 distinguished for all these qualifications, which are known and proved, and require no herald to proclaim them. And it is on these— on his high name, that his claim to be a representative of Perthshire r e s t s ; and few, we think, will deny the validity of his claim, namely) his capacity to do t h e duties of the office for which he is a candidate.

T h e accounts of the public revenue for the last year have been laid before t h e public, and they present the satisfactory result of a small excess of the revenue of the bygone year, over that of the year before, to the amount of about L. 34,000; the revenue of the one year being L. 43,286,919, and of the last year L. 43,320,952. This small excess would be of little moment, were it not that it has accrued amid great and continued remissions of taxes. The amount of taxation remitted since the year 1830, has not been less than^ about seven millions per annum. The tax on beer produced annually L. 2,804,000; that on hides, L. 371,000 ; on printed goods, L. 499,000 ; on coals carried coastwise, L. 80,000; on candles, 1.- 288,000; on raw cotton wool, L. 500,000; half the duty on soap, between L500,000 and L 600,000 per annum; besides the duties on various other minor articles, such as tiles, marine insurances, stamp receipts, & c. But under all those defalcations from remitted duties, the revenue for the last year is not above two millions less than in 1830, when it had the benefit of the duties since repealed. This marks beyond a doubt the growing resources of the country from its improving trade. During the last year all the great branches of our revenue have been increasing, namely, the customs, t h e excise, the stamps, and have more than made up for the trifling decrease that has taken place in t h e assessed taxes and in tbe post office. These facts present the pleasing prospect of a still farther reduction of taxes, and they mark also an increasing degree of prosperity among the people. Their improved circumstances enable them to consume a greater quantity of taxed articles, and hence the increase'of revenue that is pour, ed into the treasury. P R I V A T E CORRESPONDENCE. Royal Exchange, London, Monday Night. The favourable accounts which have been published relative to the receipts of the Revenue during the last quarter, have been the subject of conversation in the city to- day, and much satisfaction has been expressed at the gradually increasing resources of the country. Confidence among the mercantile and monied interests has much increased, and a sanguine expectation appears to be indulged, that during the current quarter, even a more decided improvement in the Revenue will be jshown. The opinion which has been current for some few days past, relative to its being the intention of the Regency of Spain to order a portion of its troops to enter Portugal to assist the forces of Donna Maria, has much increased to- day, and we have heard from a source which we believe is intitled to credit, that this step has been actually decided upon. The next arrivals from Madrid are therefore expected with considerable anxiety. It is said in some of the advices from Paris to- day, that Don Carlos having heard of the probable march of the Spanish troops into Portugal, had left Villa Real, and had arrived at Video, where he was when the last accounts came away. What his ulterior objects were, are not known. The statements in circulation relative to Spain and Portugal have had the effect of increasing the value of the stocks of each State. The transactions in the public securities to- day, particularly as iegarded speculative business, were not upon a very extensive scale, but Consols for account remained very firm, all the day, at 91^, and for the next account, in May, at 91$ The dealers have been engaged in making up their accounts, in anticipation of the settlement, which is on Thursday next. Private transfers were made to- day, for the first time since the books at the Bank of England were closed, about a month since, preparatory to the payment of the quarterly dividends, in the Reduced 3 per Cent. Annuities; the Reduced 3J per Cent. Annuities; the 4 per Cents, of 1826; the Long Annuities, & c. In the Reduced 3 per Cents, the first bargains were made to- day at 90J, and in the 4 per Cents, of 1826, at 102, which prices are from one- fourth to onehalf per cent, below those given just before the transfer books closed, the dividends being deducted. Bank Stock was quoted, this morning, at 213J ex. dividend, but rose to 214 ex. dividend, in the course of the day, which latter price is from two to two and a half per cent, higher than the stock fetched at the shutting of the transfer books. The premium in Exchequer Bills and India Bonds continues to be maintained, although money, in the course of the afternoon, was rather in an increased demand, for commercial purposes. India Stock, for account, was quoted at 258^, in the morning, but left off at 259I, this afternoon. A good deal of speculation has been entered into today in Portuguese, as well as in Spanish bonds.

This was also an appeal on a question arising on a bill of exchange drawn by Sir Charles A. Leslie on Thomas Mackenzie Paterson, and accepted by him, and which bill was afterwards endorsed to the respondent, Alexander Shepperd, solicitor in Inverness. The case having been opened by Dr Lushington, T h e LORD CHANCELLOR said, t h e a m o u n t s o u g ht to be recovered in this case is still less than in the former, it is only £ 100; I suppose we shall come down next to one hundred pounds Scots. The points pressed by the counsel for the appellant were, that in the course of subsequent transactions the indorsee had been paid the amount of the bill out of the monies of Paterson, the original acceptor, and that the appellant had been discharged from all liability by the fact of the respondent's having given time to Paterson. T h e LORD ADVOCATE i n r e p l y , c o n t e n d e d , t h a t t he accountant's report to the Court of Session was conclusive to negative the assumption that the respondent had been paid out of the funds of Paterson, and as to the second point, though it was true that the respondent had humanely forborne to sue both the appellant and Paterson, yet it was a gross perversion of the rule of law to say that either of those parties had been thereby discharged from their obligation. Under those circumstances, he submitted, that the judgment o f t h e Coutt of Session was unquestionably right, and must be affirmed. Mr Milne was engaged for the appellant in the first case, and for the respondent in this, but the Lord Chancellor suggested that only one counsel should be heard on each side, as it would save expence to the parties by preventing a second day's attendance. His Lordship said he should take time to look into the papers and give his judgment on a future day. Judgment postpone!. OSWALD V. M ' W H I R .

K E L L Y . The Lord Advocate and the Attorney- General being both engaged on the part of the appellants, a discussion again arose as to the light of precedence, when both paities entered a protest. T h e LORD CHANCELLOR said t h a t it w o u l d be better for them both to agree at the same time, as they copld not then dispute the right of precedence. He would, however, consider the subject and hear them argue the point at a future day. T h e LORD ADVOCATE o p e n e d t h e case, w h i c h was an appeal from a judgment of the Court of Session, and tbe Attorney- General followed. Mr Murray and Mr Milne appeared for the respondent. His Lordship, after| hearing", the case fully argued by Mr Murray, said, that as there were many points that Mr Milne would bring forth, he should contrive to come down to- morrow at half- past three o'clock, and hear the arguments on the opposite side, as the case was one of great importance in point of law. His Lordship gave notice early in the afternoon that he would give judgment in four or five cases previous to rising. Weir v. Glenny— In this appeal his Lordship reversed part of the interlocutor of the Lord Ordinary. Millar v. the Earl of Glasgow The judgment in this case was reversed with costs. Scott v. Stuart partly reversed. In the appeal of Leslie v. Shepperd, his Lordship affirmed the judgment of the Court of Session with costs. The Lord Chief Justice will sit to- morrow to hear one English and one Scotch appeal, but it is not yet known when the Lord Chancellor will resume the hearing of Scotch appeals. T H E A T R E . Mr Kean took his benefit on Monday last, on which occasion he chose the character of Richard the Third ; and from the following remarks in the Observer, which we subjoin, he appears < o have displayed great talent : — " H i s Richard the Third was every way worthy of his previous performances, and confirmed the impression they had made. It will not certainly vie with his Hamlet, which, as far as we have seen, is the most finished of his representations, but it still shows a master spirit. The courtship of Lady Anne, a scene which the late Kean may be almost said to have created, Kemble, and even Cooke, having failed fo give it any particular expression, was executed with infinite address and skill, but scarcely with the same matchless discrimination as his father; the ' laughing devil,' was not so apparent in his smile. But as the tug of war approached, his energies appeared to kindle, and he certainly went through these stirring scenes with wonderful fire and animation. That famous point, if we may so term i t , 1 Off with his head -— so much for Buckingham,' was given with peculiar force, and drew forth the irresistible applause of the audience, as did many other similar passages. But we must say that he occasionally showed an unnatural degree of exertion, seeming too gradually to collect his energies, before giving forth those rude impetuous bursts of passion. This, of course, detracted from the effect ; but we have no doubt, as his physical powers becomemore matured, he will be able to render them subservient to his will. This is the only cause we can assign, for it would be vain to impeach his excellent judgment and taste, after having seen his performance of Hamlet. In that scene where he orders his tent to be pitched for that night on Boswortli Field, we must say that nothing could be more striking than the manner in which he uttered, ' But where to- morrow night.' In this brief and momentary exclamation, he seemed to concentrate all his gloomy presages and uncertainty o f t h e future. On being loudly called for at the conclusion of the piece, Mr Kean came forward, and addressed the audience as follows :—' Ladies and Gentlemen, I feel too exhausted to thank you as 1 could wish, but accept the sincere thanks of a grateful heart for the kind and liberal reception I have met with j" and if I again shdll have the honour of appear in jg- before you, 1 hope I shall be more worthy of the applause you have bestowed on me.' The address was delivered with much modesty, and received with vehement applause." We already mentioned in our last, that the benefit of Mrs jN'icol takes place this evening, when she takes het farewell of the stage; and. we hope this excellent actress will receive from the public that support which she so well deserves. The benefit of Mr Stuart i s fixed for Saturday. He has been but a short time here; but this brief space lias been sufficient to recommend him to the favourable notice of the public, not only on account o f h i s respectable conduct, but his dramatic talents which he displays to advantage, chiefly in the tragic line of characters. Mr Mackay, whose benefit is fixed for Monday, needs no recommendation of ours. He is already well known here, and his merits speak for themselves.— As a comic performer he is without a rival; not merely in the Scottish characters, but in several parts of Shakespeare's plays, such as Touchstone, Launcelot Gobo, & c.; and what is more, he is an excellent peri former on the stage of real l i f e ; which is, as it ought to be, an additional passport to public favour. Mrs Eyre's benefit takes place on Tuesday ; when we understand she intends leaving the'stage, for the pnrpose of following a more private line of life, which has been at all times more congenial to her habits Her plan is to commence a school, in which she is to be assisted by her daughters, who are eminently qualified to teach various branches of education, useful as well as ornamental. We hope that they will meet with the encouragement which they so well deserve; and that this last appeal to the public by Mrs Eyre will be favourably received.

BERLIN, March 24.— In all the negociations in which the French Government is engaged there is mi essenlial point to be considered— it is the want of consistency in that Government, and the struggles of parties which exercise the greatest influence over affairs, but most particularly . over tbe foreign relations of France. In our opinion, the Doctrinaires are the sole and last with whom it will be possible to come to an understanding. If the new elections should expel them from the Ministry, we do not see on what grounds negociations with foreign countries could in future be founded. It must not, however, be concealed that the influence and power of the D ctrinaires abroad as well at home is extremely limited. The Customs Excise Stamps Taxes Post Office.

WRECK OF A K I N G ' S S H I P ON THE COAST OF MAYO.— Several pieces of wreck hav; been driven aihore on the coast of Acliill within the lust 10 days, amongst them were part of the deck snd the top of a ship's binnacle. From the circumstance of their being fastened with composition nails, r. nd bearing the impression of the King's broad arrow, there can be no doubt t iat Ihey ate parts of ihe wreck of on; of his Maje ty's vessels. The French Ministry is again arranged. But it is composed of such discordant elements, that it seems to be doubled how far it will be permanent. Marshal Soult, M. Humann, and M. Guizot, retain ( heir offices. Admiral de Rigny replaces the Duke de Broglie as Minister for Foreign Affairs, and Admiral Roussin, now at Constantinople, takes the office of Minister of Marine, vacated by M. de Rigny. M. Thiers is made Minister of the Interior, in place of Count d'Argout, appointed Gover. nor of the Bank of France, and M. Duchatel succeeds as Minister of Commerce. M. Persil, Procureur- General, is appointed Minister of Justice, and M. Barthe, the late Minister, is made a Peer of France. Those who are most intimately acquainted with the public men of France, with their character, and opinions, and previous relations, anticipate no permanence for this Adminislration ; and, besides, being ill arranged, it is extremely unpopular. Sir George Murray lias commenced his canvass for the representation of Perthshire, and, we hear, with every prospect of success. Aside from all political considerations, he is admitted on all hands to be eminently qualified for t h e duties of a legislator. His straight- forward and manly character, whether in or out of office; his extensive information on the great topics of Parliamentary discussion ; and hi, nervous and ready eloquence, all concur to point him out as the fit representative of a popular constituency. His merits have been acknowledged by his political opponents, several of whom are known to regret that lie had not a seat in Parliament. It is of t h e highest importance that men of his tried experience, and of steady application, should be SCOTCH PARLIAMENTARY PROCEEDINGS. House of Lords, April 4. ALLAN V. TURNBULL.

T h e LORD ADVOCATE opened t h i s case on b e h a lf of the appellant. The action was founded on a bill of exchange for £ 145, 19s. 4^ d. drawn by the respondent and accepted by the late Masterton Robertson of Inches. The defence to the action was twofold. The statute of prescription 12 Geo. I I I . had run against the bill, in addition to which that instrument must be considered as a nullity, inasmuch as it was written on a stamp for 4s. 6d. instead of a 5s. stamp. Having referred to the ratione decidendi annexed to the interlocutor pronounced by the Lord Corehouse, and now appealed from, the Lord Advocate proceeded to observe, that the vision o f t h e Court of Session in this case appeared to be impeded and distorted by a cloud of prejudice, as they had come to a decision adverse to his client upon some abstract notion of fairness and justice, which he must take leave to say was not consistent with the law of the case. T h e LORD CHANCELLOR s a i d , t h e J u d g e s of t he Court of Session seemed to feel what was constantly expressed by the Judges in the Courts of this country, that the plea of the statute of limitations was not a conscientious defence. T h e LORD ADVOCATE s a i d , no d o u b t t h a t was t he view taken of it by the Court below, but it was in direct hostility to the avowed intention of the Legislature— After some farther references as to the facts of the case, as set forth in the printed documents, T h e LORD CHANCELLOR s a i d , it was q u i t e clear that, under the stamp laws, the bill libelled on should not have been received in evidence. Dr LUSHINGTON, for the respondent, admitted that he could not sustain the case upon the hill, but he thought he might support the judgment without any reference to the bill. The learned civilian then adverted to a trust deed executed by the late Masterton Robertson shortly before the bill became payable, and in which he acknowledged himself indebted to the heirs of John Ettles, vintner in Inverness, in the sum of £ 180, 19s. 4id. T h e LORD CHANCELLOR, h a v i n g e x a m i n e d the summons very minutely, observed, that the proposition to support the judgment without reference to the bill, reminded him o f t h e tradition of the Saint who walked to Paris with his head under his arm. The action was clearly founded on the bill, and to expect to go on without it was of a piece with the idea of walking without a head. He should have great difficulty in differing from the Judges of the Court below, but this was one of those cases which came every day before the Courts of this country. Twenty such cases were disposed of every day at Guildhall, and he was sure that, had this case been tried there, it would have been got through in an hour. T h e LORD ADVOCATE s a i d , it m i g h t h a v e b e e n in Guildhall, but this was somewhat different. T h e LORD CHANCELLOR t h e n , a d v e r t i n g to t he voluminous record which appeared before him, observed, that something must really be done to put an end to cases of this kind. Here the debt was but £ 140, and the appellant's expenses would amount to £ 200, which he never could get back. There would be a loss, therefore, of £ 60, though the judgment should be in his favour. No doubt counsel had certified that there was good ground of appeal, and, doubtless, there may be reasonable ground for appeal in an action for the sum of five shillings, but no reasonable person would take advantage of that good ground for so small a sum. - Dr LUSHINGTON said,' that as bis Lordship - had expressed so strong an opinion upon the case, he should not feel himself justified in pressing it any farther. T h e LORD CHANCELLOR t h e n rose a n d s a i d , — I electe!, beciuse they can be depended upon for v n e ? d n o t tro « ble your Lordships with any observations The Duke of Buccleuch's fox- hounds meet tomorrow at Legerwood ; and on Saturday, at Needpath, each day at half- past eight o'clock.

The powerful] fast sailing steam- ship Royal William, Captain Chaplin, which left Leith last Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock, arrived at London on Monday morning at 10 o'clock, having made the passage in 42 hours.

We beg to call the attention of the public to the following clause, which, it appears, is still preserved in the new police bill now before Parliament, although in the report of t h e proceedings of the Com missioners of Police, dated 13th March last, as inserted in the public papers, it was expressly stated that " the clause taking power to manufacture gas was struck out." " And be it enacted, that it shall and may be lawful for the said Commissioners, and they are hereby authorised and empowered, to purchase ground] for,' and to construct a gas work, and all the machinery and apparatus necessary for the manufacture, and to lay down pipes and other machinery for the distribution of gas to the public lamps, within the foresaid bounds." POLICE COMMISSION A s p e c i a l m e e t i n g of t he Police Commission was held yesterday, the I. ord Provost in the chair; on which occasion M r J . B. Gracie brought under the notice o f t h e Commission what he considered an inaccuracy in the minutes of the meeting held on Friday last. It appeared that the minutes of M r Aitken's motion not only bore that no deputation should be sent to London at present to watch over the new bill, but also that if ! circumstances should render lhat step necessary, the Board, and not the bill committee, would sanction the measure. This latter clause, Mr Gracie, the chairman of that meeting, contended was never put to the Board, and must be, in some way or other, an interpolation. Mr Aitken and the clerk both declared this clause was a substantive part of the motion, and as such put to the Board, in which they were corroborated by other members, while several memhers, on the other side, declared that they never heard the clause read, and did not understand that lllat question was under discussion. The Board divided on approving or disapproving the minutes, when 17 voted to approve, and 11 voted to disapprove. Mr Gracie and others protested, as this question had been carried by a majority of those who were not ptesenl at the former meeting. Another motion to rescind the disputed clause was lost by a division of 15 to 14. The members o f t h e biil committee, with the exception of t h e Shei iff, who was not present, individually gave in their resignations; when, on the motion of Mr Horne, the Board resolved themselves into a committee of the whole Commission, to watch over the progress of the bill. The weather, which for some time past was highly favourable for sowing, and from its mild temperature well fitted for preparing the ground for other agricultural purposes, suddenly changed on Sunday to a piercing cold, with a parching wind from the east. Vegetation has thus in some measure been checked, and the buds and flowers which were ready to burst forth, have shrunk back from the severity of thc weather. A meeting of the working classes was held last night in the Relief Chapel, Brighton Street, for the purpose of petitioning Parliament and addressing his Majesty to remit the sentence of transportation for seven years, passed on six men at the last Dorchester assizes, for administering unlawful oaths. The meeting, which consisted entirely of the labouring classes, and was very thinly attended, agreed to several resolutions, and a petition in accordance with the object for which they had met. TRADES' U N I O N S — T H E BAKERS. The public are not aware of the extent to which trades' unions have increased here. A general strike, as it is called, we learn, will soon be tried by those belonging to these unions. The masons have circulated a printed notice to their employers, preparatory thereto ; and the bakers, it is said, intend to give notice on Saturday, that they intend to leave their situations on the following Saturday, if the terms they dictate to their masters are not complied with. A specimen of their proceeding was given last week by some bakers; from which, however, an action for serious damages is likely to be the result. A master baker had engaged a man not belonging to the union, and in the course of the day after the man had entered on his situation, the master was waited upon by a deputation from the union, with the modest demand that he must immediately dismiss the man, which he very properly declined to do. They then told him they would compel his foreman, who was a unionist, to leave his service, which the simple man, much against his will, immediately did, leaving a place where he had sustained a good character for upwards of four years, and was in the receipt of 16s. to 18s. per week, declaring to his master tqat nothing would have made him act in such a manner but out of respect to the oath he had come under when he entered the union. His place was immediately filled up, and he only is the sufferer. Sttch tyrannical proceedings ought to make the respectable part or the men of this union aware of their situation. Wehave always disapproved of these trades unions ; and the violence and spirit of tyranny by which they have been uniformly governed cannot be too strongly reprobated. But, further, it may be easily proved that they are detrimental to the interests of the workmen themselves; because they provoke resistance on the part o f t h e masters, and set them upon contrivances to supersede their refractory servants. These trades unions by the injustice and tyranny which they practise, actually hold out a bounty on contrivances to dispense with their own industry ; and this in many cases with such effect that they have found themselves unexpectedly dismissed for ever, owing to their own unreasonable conduct, from their employments. This has happened with the calico printers in the west country ; with the colliers about Newcastle; and in Liverpool, the labourers employed in some o f t h e great public buildings going forward. suddenly struck work, and the structure about' which they were employed made no progress for some months. What was the consequence? The want of their industry was ingeniously supplied by the use of steam engines, by which the necessary materials for building were at once raised to any height, and the services of those employed in the laborious process of carrying them were for ever dispensed with. If the bakers play any injudicious tricks of this nature, thei labour will soon be supplied. The art of baking is one of the simplest that can be conceived ; any private' family could easily supply themselves with bread, and if they are• compelled to resort to their own industry for this purpose, the trades unions of this craft will' have ample leisure to repent their injudicious combinations. The truth is, that no combination will ever permanently force the rate of wages above its natural level, nor can they be depressed below it by any contrivance on the part of the masters ; and these hostile combinations, therefore, while they lead to violence, animosity, and the most hateful acts of tyranny and injustice, do by no means accomplish the immediate purpose which they have in view. On Sabbath evening an eloquent and impressive sermon was preached in St George's Chuich by the Rev. Robt. Candlish, from Mark, x. 14, on behalf of the Edinburgh Gratis Subba'. h School Society. The ph'urch was crowded, arid we are happy lo undersftyid that the collection was liberal. On Tuesday the 8ih instant, the United Associate Congregation in Borrowstounness gave an u n a - ' nimous call to the Rev. George Hill, A. M., late of Warrington, to be successor to their late respected Pastor the Rev. Archd. Harper, deceased. The Rev. AVilliam Smart of Linlithgow preached and presided on the occasion. On Saturday the 15th February, the Rev. Matthew Miller, a native of Glasgow, minister of the Scottish Church, Coburgh, Upper Canada, was drowned in crossing the bay of Quente, on the ice in his sleigh. His body was found on the following Monday. The emigration this season to North America, so far as it has gone, is limited, when compared with the amount for ihe same period in some former years, and assumes much cf the character which it may, in future, be expected to hold in ordinary times, when there are no pressing motives arising from a decline of trade and want of employment to induce the working classes to expatriate themselves. Of those who have gone out this year, a great number, we have no doubt, have done so prompted by ihe success of friends who have proceeded before, and have invited them to follow their example.— The mere love of change may have been the inducement of a good many others; but if there be any class, whom adverse circumstances have impelled lo emigrate, it is the agriculturists, and even among those, prudential motives rather than pecuniary embarrassment have swayed many to this determination. Of tile manufacturing population, not many, we apprehend, are quitting the country this season, their condition being, generally speaking, so much mproved.— Greenock Advertiser. T O W N C O U N C I L P R O C E E D I N G S. The Council met on Tuesday at the usual hour. The minutes of a meeting of conference, between a committee o f t h e Commissioners of Police, and a committee o f t h e Council, on the subject of the new Police bill, were read. The committee of Commissioners had, it seemed, laid before the meeting tbe draft of a memorial to the Treasury, the object of which is to get a permanent Judge of Police ; his salary to be paid out of the Treasury funds. The committee of Council expressed their approbation of the memorial, and recommended the Council to adopt it. After some discussion, it was agreed to remit it back to the committee, with the addition ofthe Magistrates, with full powers to transmit it. The TREASURER, as Convener of the committee to whom it had been intrusted to prepare a petition to Parliament against the Incorporations' monopolies, reported tbat they had prepared a petition, but that the Convener had objected to certain parts of it, and having promised to call the Convenery on an early day, to induce that body to wave their privileges, they had delayed the petition accordingly. COWGATE CHURCH. The Committee appointed to confer with Dr Chalmers and the other subscribers to the proposed church in the Cowgate, reported, that the reverend gentleman had'added a supplementary condition to the others he before - proposed, respecting the management of the congregation, to the effect that the proposed arrangements were not to preclude any future enlargement of the parish, if it should afterwards be deemed necessary. The committee then went on to recommend that the Council should not agree to the first condition, of the parish consisting of 2000 souls, as 3000 was the average number into which the 13 parishes might be divided, and if they were to constitute a population of 2000 into a parish, they must either unnecessarily favour that district, or divide the town into so many small parishes, as would render the ecclesiastical burdens of the city intolerable. On this ground they thought the population of the new parish ought not to be less than 3000. The second condition, tbat the seat rents should be fixed so low as not to yield more, when the sittings are fully let, than a return of four per cent., aftet paying the incidental expenses of the congregation, the < lommittee. tbought. might be complied with, considering the plebeian nature of the district. With tbe third condition",. that the subscribers should not receive more than four per cent, interest, but that one- third of the seats might be raised t j afford the means of establishing schools in the district, the committee cordially agreed. They approved also of the spirit and intention of the fourth - condition, that a rigid preference should be given to tbe residents in the district, but they feared the measures contemplated would not give full effect to it. The subscribers had disclaimed any intention of building up a congregetion out of the other churches, but they also did not expect that they would be able speedily to fill the church with the residents in the district; and the committee feared that, in this case, a popular minister and cheap seats would operate to the serious disadvantage of the city. To counteract this, in some degree, the committee recommended that the seats should be made higher to strangers, and that the seats let to them should be declared vacant every year, to afford room for those inhabitants o f t h e district who might choose to attend. Ou the fifth condition, that the subscribers should retain in their own hands the nomination of the minister for the first ten years, the committee reported that the Council had no power to delegate their patronage, or to bind their successors, and all that they could engage themselves to do, was an honourable understanding that the Council would present to the church, on the recommendation ofthe subscribers. ( On communicating this to the subscribers, they declared themselves satisfied with the honourable understanding.) They agreed to the next condition that the subscribers should have the management of all details connected with the church, so long as it remained in their possession ; but with respect to the seventh condition, that after the expiration of ten years, the subscribers should yield up the church into the hands ofthe Town Council, on condition that the regulations they had framed should be preserved, the committee objected, as many circumstances might occur in the lapse of years, to render the alteration of the regulations necessary. All they could agree to was, that the Town Council should engage themselves not to raise the rents of the seats in such a degree as would injure the religious interests ofthe parish. Tbe committee agreed with the last condition, that if it were not convenient for the Town Council, at the end of the ten years, to take the church into its own management, it should remain in the hands of the subscribers.— In considering these conditions, the committee had taken it for granted, that it would be desirable to have anew church erected, and that it could be done without injury to any arrangements contemplated in the city There could be no doubt as to the first, but great difficulty existed with respect to the latter. The only plan they could recommend was, to make the new church a substitute for one o f t h e two they were already engaged to build, which, they feared, would not meet the views of the subscribers. Upon the whole, they could not recommend the proposition for the adoption of the Council. I LATE STEEPLE CHASE.— We are liappy to l e a rn that Mr Craig, the son of Councillor Craig, and the gentleman who takes the active management of the Prestonholm Spinning concern, has completely recovered from the effects of his heavy fall, mentioned in our last paper.— Chronicle.

IN consequence of a requisition addressed to the Provost of Portobello, a P U B L I C MEETING of the Owners and Occupants of Houses at and above £ 10 rent in the town of Portobello, will be held on Friday the 11th day of April curt., within Forsyth's Rooms there, at two o'clock afternoon, to take into tending to buy a hat, asked of a tall well dressed consideration a Memorial about to be presented to the s ./. young man, if h e cou' l. d. recommend. . h. im to a good. Burrrh Commissioners nravinff that no comnulsorv asshop. The person applied to said, he would take hitn to one at the back of the church, where he would get a good article at a cheap rate. They went away together a little way, when the youngster stooped down, and lifted a chain with a pair of seals which he pronounced to be of great value, and another man, who of course was passing, confirmed the opinion. The finder insisted on the countryman having a right to his share of the prize, the' worth of which was estimated at £ 20. After the usual arts, the farmer was induced to give all the money in bis possession, and a watch, to the finder, he being to receive from tbe person who came. up the value of the chain. The parties came along to a close, when lie desired ihe countryman to wait till he went into his counting- house for the money. The man waited till he vvas tired, but of course the person never returned. The poor dupe confesses tbat he never reads newspapers. MEMBERS OF ASSEMBLY.

A memorial was read from the Leith Town Council, claiming that the expenses of their election should be defrayed out of the common good of the town of Leith, in accordance with the burgh reform act.— Remitted to the law committee. PROPERTY OF THE CITY. The opinion of counsel was then read respecting the property of the city that was attachable or not by the creditors. The learned gentlemen ( Messrs Skene, L'Amy, and. Ivory) stated that they had classed the property of the city under tbe following heads, in order to give a more lucid view o f t h e principles upon which their opinion was founded :— 1. The annuity and merk per ton.— This they considered the property of the clergy, which the town held qua trustees, and could not be diverted from that purpose either by the Council or the Creditors. 2. The seat- rents.— On this head there was great difficulty of opinion. They concurred, however, in opinion with Lords Newton and Moncreiff) in 1823, then at the bar, that the produce of the scat- rents could not be taken to pay the city debts, or for any other purpose than the support of ecclesiastical affairs. There was more doubt as to whether, considering that the churches were now stand ing, and the debts on each remaining distinct, the rents could not be levied to discharge those debts, and whether they could take the rents of one church to defray the debt oh another. They might say, however, that as the creditors could not interfere with the churches, or their management, so- they could not interfere with the rents. If they could attach them at all, it would only be till the extinction of the ecclesi astical debt, when their rights to them would cease. They knew of 110 rule or precedent for applying the produce of the seat rents to the payment of the stipends ofthe Clergy. In the third place, with the property of the College the creditors had nothing to do. The creditors might insist that it should not in any way be supported out of the funds to which they laid claim, but they could not compel a sale of the City's patronage or property of the City. Under the fourth head, were classed all charitable bequests in the management of the town, which the Council were bound to apply according fo the intentions of the donors. The Leith Pocks, under the 5th head, were declared to be unattachable, and after tile extinction of the Government debt, the surplus belonged to the City. Under the sixth head, all property known by the name of the common good, whicli had been granted originally for the carrying on of the business of the Corporation, and under which might be comprehended the gaol and town- house, the impost on wines, the dues at Port Hopetoun, the burgess and guildry dues, & c. were unattachable by the creditors. It was different with property they had acquired in an ordinary way, for what they had bought they might sell, anel what could be sold might be attached; and. upon all property^ of this description they recommended the Council to up their claim to it at once without carrying it Mr the Court of Session. With respect to the other property, they disapproved of going into an arbitrary reference on the subject; as the case involved so many questions of deep constitutional law, and recommended that it should be carried to the House of Lords, where they would obtain the highest legal talent of the empire to bear upon the subject, which was comparatively little known in this quarter ofthe island. Several members expressed themselves highly pleased with the satisfactory nature of the opinions given by counsel, and it was agreed to remit them to the law committee. A letter was read from the Managers of tbe Charity Workhouse, soliciting their support to a bill about to be introduced to Parliament, providing for the support r H ^ O of the poor by a general assessment over the whole in- 1 ~ « L habitants, including tbe privileged bodies A long discussion ensued upon this point, as to whether it would be expedient to include the provision for the clergy in the same bill, when it was at length agreed, on the motion of Treasurer Black, by a majority of 15 to 13, to petition Parliament in favour of the bill in question, and also to appoint a committee to make out the draft of another bill having for its object the provision for tbe clergy. On the report of the committee on salaries being again taken up, it was agreed, after some discussion, to continue the St Andrew's chimes, at an expence of twenty- five guineas. It was formerly forty guineas. Mr Craig gave in the resignation of his seat at the Council Board, from the 5th May next, inconsequence of being under the necessity of leaving the city for six months. He had mentioned this at his election, and, in obedience to the understanding then come to, he now resigned. The Council separated about five o'clock. current, 29s. to 30s.

The following from the Bengal Hurkaru, of the 26th ultimo, has just come in :— " It is with very deep regret that we find ourselves obliged to add another to the melancholy list of those failures, which, in the course of the last few years, have spread desolation in our mercantile world, and indeed throughout society in India. The house of Eergusson and Co. one of the greatest and oldest in Calcutta, has been at length compelled to stop payment, this morning, and a special sitting ofthe Insolvent Court took place soon after ten, when the partners filed their petition before the honourable Sir J . P. Grant, commissioner. The estate, declared to exceed eight anna3 in the rupee, was all signed over to the assignee of. the Court until the next sitting, which is to be held on Saturday, we believe; a permanent assignee will then be named, on the recommendation probably of the creditors, who are to meet, on Friday next, the 29th instant, to take into consideration the affairs o f t h e late firm. " The following circular speaks for itself, and sufficiently explains the concurring causes, which have led to the failure of this old and respectable house:— ' CIRCULAR. ' It is with feelings of deep regret and disappointment, we inform you, that we have, this day, been obliged finally to suspend our payments. ' It is not necessary for us to enter into a long explanation of the circumstances, which have forced this painful alternative upon us, as the recent calamitous events in the commercial community of this city must he well known to you, and the extent, to which we have been affected by them, we have not attempted to conceal. It is enough to state, that the unlooked- for failure of our correspondents in Eondon, involving the return of bills to a considerable amount, and causing a fresh paroxysm of alarm and distrust, from the intimate connection that was known to have subsisted between the two houses, for a long series of years, superadded to the measures pursued by some parties, with the view of enforcing a preferential ad. justment of their claims, by legal proceedings, and combined with the discovery of an extensive system of transfer, which we had no other means of preventing, has crushed the hopes, we entertained, of a better issue to our exertions, and imposed on us the duty of taking Steps' for the equal protection of all, by resigning the control of our affairs, a result we the more deeply deplore, after the kind and generous support we have experienced from. so many of our friends. ' After mature deliberation, we have considered it the best course for all to place our concerns under the management of the Insolvent Court. We shall be prepared, on an early day, to lay before our creditors a statement of our affairs ; and it is some satisfaction to us to know that they will be found to be improved by the enhanced value of indigo ar. d indigo concerns, as well as by our general transactions since the beginning of the present year. 1 We are, your most obedient servants, ' FERGUSSON &. C o. « Calcutta, Nov. £ 6, 1833.' " Ever since the fall of their London Correspondents, ( considerable alarm has prevailed amongmeicantilemen for the stability of the Calcutta firm. But their resources were great; nothing could exceed the activity, intelligence, and good management of those who had to wield them, while the great rise in the indigo market seemed to have occurred in the very nick of time to strengthen their great eftoits to stem the torrent of discredit. That might have failed, perhaps, to overwhelm them— but they discovered that their estate was suffering dilapidation, and the more distant and confiding creditors injury, by the system of large private transfers. " Whether transactions of that character can be supported, where the tranferring creditors were signing parties to the promised forbcatance towards the house and each other in the beginning of the year, may be a question in law. But there can be no doubt but it became the duty of honourable men to lose no time in protecting the interest of all claimants, by the only mode which assured it to the whole— a resort at once to the Insolvent Court." ADES' UNIONS. We understand that the men sentenced to transportation at Dorchester, for beiug members of nn i'legal society, bound together by a secret oath, have already Ibeen sent off from this country fcr New South Wales. In fact, the \ essel actually sailed in the middle of last week. On Thursday, a meeting was hel l in Charlotte Street, Filzroy Square, to receive the King's answer to the memorial in favour of the Dorsetshire Unionists. Dr Wade took the chair, ant) said he regretted he had to inform them that his Majesty had been advised not to listen to the petition praying for the remission of the sentence. The following letter to Mr Austin, Secretary to the Institution, was read:— « Whitehall, 2d April 1834. " Sir,— I am directed by Viscount Melbourne to acquaint you, that the petition to which your name is affixed, in favour of James Brin and five others, who were convicted at the last Sessions of the county of Dorchester of administering unlawful oaths, and sentenced to seven years transportation, has been duly laid before the Kmg ; and that his Majesty has not been pleased to signify any commands thereon. " I am, Sir, " Your most obedient humble servant, " HOWICK." This was read amidst symptoms of displeasure; and strong resolutions, deploring the decision of his Majesty on the subject, weie agreed to. LONDON. The will of James Biddies, the Bisliopsgate shoemaker, has been proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury. His personal effects are sworn under L. 100,000; and the real property is valued at L. 60,000. Miss Starkie, a young lady on a visit to the family of Mr J. Messunt, of Gloucester Place, Portinan Square, was arranging some ornaments on the mantelpiece in the library, on Wednesday morning, when one of the servants opened the hall door, and a draught of wind rushing into the library, blew the lower part of her dress against the bars of the grate. In a few moments she was enveloped in flames, and fell upon the floor. A footroan then rushed into the room, and extinguished the flames by throwing a cloak around her. Miss Staikie was so severely burnt about the neck and l e a d that she now lies in great danger. DEPREDATION SPEEDILY PUNISHED AT NEWCASTLE On Friday evening, as the Union Coach had j u s t arrived from Edinburgh at the Tin f Hotel, in this town, and was being unloaded, a small basket belonging to a lady passenger was taken out, and in a few moments missed. Suspicion fell on a woman who had been taken as passenger at Musselburgh Links, and had walked off Gloghori., the guard, having heard her mention Jarrow, immediately set off in pursuit lo the Quay, arid subsequently spent the night in searching all the lodging houses in town, but without effect. On fhe following morning, he set off very early to Jarrow wilh a constable, and had nol been long on ihe look out before t h e woman was espied on board a steamer. They put off in a boat, made a capture, and returned, • without landing, by another steamer, to Newcastle. The basket, with its contents, was found upon her. She was taken before Mr Alderman Surtees at eleven o'clock, ar. il committed under the vagrant act, by the name of Margaret llubsoii, for three months to hard labour, as a suspected person and reputed thief frequenting a place of public resort with a view to commit felony. The lady was able to pro. eed on her journey in the afternoon. Gleghorn is entitled to credit f'or his promptitude. It appears that the woman had excited compassion on her journey, by stating that she had been robbed of 5s. out of 20s., all she had, at a lodging- house the night before. The proprietor at Haddington allowed her to ride for 5s. less than the fare; one passenger treated her with a breakfast, and another with refreshment, and the lady who was robbed gave her a shilling to pay for her. night's lodging— Tyne Mercury. Mr Hollins, Coroner for the Stockport division, has, during the years 183- 2- 3, rdderi on horseback • upwards of 13,000 miles in the perfonnance of his professional duties. ( From the Atlas.) However the ministry, or the King, may decide in the case o f t h e unfortunate men who were tried recently at Dorchester, there cannot be any doubt that the question between the trades' unions and the public is on the eve of settlement. It is quite impossible that a state of things so abhorrent to social Older can be permitted to continue. Either the Trades' Unions must prevail over the better judgment of the community, or the community must, for its own sake, interfere to suppress a combination so ruinous in its consequences. It is now stated that the unionists intend to pursue a course very different from that which they have hitherto adopted ; but whether it is calculated to lead to good or evil remains yet to be seen. Instead of striking for wages, and refusing to work— as they used to do— we learn that they mean to work on theit own account, to withdraw their labours from their employers, and to make common cause against the existing system.—, How far the attempt to render labour thus brought into the market profitable may succeed, it is difficult to anticipate; but we apprehend that the want of pecuniary resources, and the continued resistance of capital and stock already accumulated in hands that will not speedily surrender, must make the project perilous to those who embark in it. To deny to labour its elementary character and its absolute value, would be absurd ; but in a case like this we must look to tbe circumstances which surround the working classes. Can their labour come fairly into competition against wealth and machinery ? Is it not evident that if an opposition should be created between the employers and the employed, it must terminate, like all such opposition, in favour of that party which possesses the more abundant means ? But while this unnatural contest should be going forward, new workmen might, of necessity, be introduced, and ultimately, perhaps, when the phrenzy of the delusion had ceased, the unionists might discover that their repentance came too late, and that their places were already supplied. The subject resolves itself into many shapes of evil, and wc cannot discern a single argument f'or the good of the working classes springing from the violent and heedless course which they are pursuing. Whichever way we examine it the inferences are fatal. The aboriginal notion of one of our contemporaries, that it would be a glorious state of society if each man received the profits of his own labour, is more benevolent than true. It is like a primitive exhortation upon the beauty of peace preached by some Utopian to the soldiery of a besieged town. Such a division of profits might exist in an early stage of society, but to expect that after the community had been organized upon principles so utterly different, we could recur to a system so inimical to our habits and so opposed to our experience, is but tbe day dream of a philosopher who employs himself counting the motes in the sun, while other men are engaged in availing themselves of its heat. If the members of the trades' anions could perceive that there is an interest in common between them and their employers, anel that any measures. which they take with a view to separation, must involve them in a fearful struggle for sustenance, the result of which, even with the most sanguine feelings, must be admitted to be doubtful, they would pause seriously before they engaged in so alarming a movement. We cannot contemplate such a prospect without anxiety, and, having no party or political objects to promote beyond the public good, we are the more earnest in ihe desire to impress upon those deluded combinators that they are entangled in the toils of u most pernicious fallacy. BURSTING OF A STEAM CARRIAGE BOILELT. A few months ago a trial was made of the powers of a steam carriage invented by Mr Roberts of this town, which failed from the want of sufficient capacity in the boiler for generating the steam required. The necessary alterations having been completed, a private trial of the carriage was made on the evening of Thursday week, by running it a mile and a half up Oxford- road; when it was found that the defect which had previously existed was perfectly removed, and that there was an abundance of steam to keep up a speed of 18 or 20 miles an hour on level ground. It was discovered, however, that the force pumps by which the boiler was supplied with water, were inefficient, and that the water in the boiler was rapidly diminishing. In consequence of the inconvenience which had been experienced, an alteration was made in the pumps, and the carriage was brought out for another trial yesterday ( Friday) morning. It had proceeded about a mile and a half along the road, when it was again discovered that the pumps, although they worked, to all appearance, perfectly well, bad injected little or no water into the boiler, which was found to be nearly empty. Ho time was now lost in turning the bead of the carriage towards home, when it was stopped, and the fire immediately raked out, in the hope of preventing injury to the tubes and the end of the boiler,— a precaution, however, which the eyent proved to haye been adopted lather too. late. As soon as the fire was got out, the boiler was filled from a pool near the roadside; the fire was then rekindled, and the carriage began to move back towards Manchester. It bad proceeded nearly as far as the end of Rusholme road, when a loud noise, an immense volume of steam, and a mingled shower of boiling water and red hot cinders, which flew in all directions, announced that the boiler had given way. Most fortunately no person in or upon the carriage sustained any material injury from the explosion, the principal force of which was exerted against the ground; but four men, who, in spite of repeated warnings, had persisted in hanging upon the back of the carriage, were very severely scalded. One of them was greatly injured in the back and face, and was immediately conveyed to the infirmary, where, v, e are soiry to say, he now lies in a very dangerous state. Considerable mischief was also done to the windows near to which the explosion took place; particularly to those of the shops of Mr Baron, chemist and druggist, and Mr Ritlgway, grocer, in which nearly all ihe glass was broken; and we believe the red hot cinders set iite to the interior of Mr Baton's shop, but the flames wtre iirjihptly" extinguished,— Manchester Guardian, OUTRAGES BY T H E UNIONISTS At two o ' c l o ck on Wednesday morning, the house of Mr Duhig, master cooper, in Clarence Street, Blackpool, was attacked by a party of about six and twenty or thirty of the villains belonging to tile Trades' Union. They commenced with a simultaneous shower of stones, w hich was kept up without intermission or abatement for about five minutes. They then ceased for a few moments, when they renewed the attack with increased fury ; the stones flying through the upper panes of the windows, and dashing against the walls with such violence, as entirely to remove the coating of mortar. Mr Duhig, who had tor some hours been in bed, was by this time up, and having provided himself with arms, took his post at one of the windows, determined that it should not be his fault if the fellows succeeded in their object. The wintlows were fortunately all barricaded, and in the boards used for that purpose, he had had port- holes bored, in order that, should they venture on the attack, he might be able to give them the only reception which miscreants such as these deserve. For some time he found it impossible to get at them, for, aware of the sort of man they had to deal with, they had not only extinguished the gas light, and posted guards at all the approaches to prevent the arrival of any assistance, but scattered themselves as widely as they could, in order to distract his attention. At length, however, he caught a glimpse of one of them, and, directing his gun towards him with as much steadiness as he could from the continual showering of stones and fulling of glass on bis arm, fired, it is hoped not without effect, for of sixteen swan drops with whicli it was loaded, eleven weie in the morning found in the jam of the door, against which the fellow was standing, and the part of the wall immediately adjoining, and blood was traced for some distance from tbe spot. Finding that Mr Duliig was not disposed to trifle with them, they rushed in a body under the window from which he had fired, and commenced battering in the door with sledges. The window was unfortunately a bow one, and being therefore out of the power of Mr Duhig, they were for some time able to batter at the door without interruption; unsuccessfully, however, for it was well secured; beside which, there were inside ten or twelve men, whom on the alarm being given, Mr Duhig had posted at it, in order that, should it be forced, they might be ready to deal with tbe fellows as they entered. He, himself, meanwhile, though unable to see any of them, put his arm as far as he could reach through the port hole, and fired down among them at random. Whether he wounded any of them we are unable to say, but they soon after desisted from their attack on tbe door, and applied themselves to the parlour window, through which they endeavoured to get in ; but here also they failed, for, though they smashed the shutters with hatchets, & c. there were iron bars inside which they could not remove, and which prevented their entrance. Finding themselves overmatched by the admirable arrangements and tbe determined and courageous conduct of Mr Duhig, they at length withdrew, baffled in all their designs. The cause of the attack on Mr Duhig is stated to have been that he had taken into his employment some coopers from Limerick, in consequence of a turn out of some Cork men, and that be was obliged to keep them in his house to insure their safety.— Cork Constitution. FUNERAL OF MRS BURNS— F. XHLMATION OF THE POET'S SKULL. ( From the Dumfries Courier.) The remains of Mrs Burns were interred in the family vault on Tuesday the lst April, with all the solemnity the occasion demanded, in presence of an immense'crowd of spectators. The Magistrates and Commissioners of Police politely offered to mark their respect for Mrs Burns' memory by attending her funeral in their public capacity— an offer so honourable that it was at once acknowledged and acceeded to by the trustees. The Magistrates and Council assembled at half- past 11, and shortly after moved in a body to Bums' Street, amidst a throng of people ( many of whom had voluntarily arrayed themselves in sables), such as has rarely been witnessed on the strectsof Dumfries. Between two and three hundred funeral letters were issued ! n compliance with the usual custom ; and in this way while the private feelings of friends were conciliated, the public were gratified in as far as was deemed consistent with the rules of decorum. As many persons were received into the house as it could possibly contain, including various clergymen, citizen friends, and country gentlemen, among the latter of whom we observed Sir Thos. Wallace, a kind personal friend of the deceased ; Sir Thomas Kirkpatrick; Mr Dunlop, Southwick; Mr Jas. M'Alpine Leny of Dalswinton ; Mr John Dunlop, Rosefield ; Mr Macadam of Castledykes; Major Adair; Mr Hannah of Hannahfleld ; Major Davies; Mr John Staig; the Provost and Magistrates, & c. & c. Eloquent prayeis were pat up on the occasion by the Reverend Messrs Wightman, Fyffe, Dunlop, and Wallace ; and after the usual forms had been observed, the coffin was placed on spokes, and borne by many to its final resting place. Ahhough the distance was extremely short, several hundred hands bore the body along by shifting as frequently as St Michael's bell tolled. Though the crowd was very dense, forests of heads were thrown into lines as the procession moved forward ; every window was filled with spectators ; numerous visitors were observed from the country ; and, altogether, the scene reminded many of the memorable day of the poet's funeral. So great was the anxiety to enter the Mausoleum that the pressure, in the first instance, occasioned a slight degree of confusion; but in a minute or two order was restored, and the body lowered slowly and solemnly into the family vault. The chief mourners then descended, took the stations assigned them, and after every thing had been adjusted, placed the coffin in a grave dug to the depth of four feet. Five relatives attended the interment, viz., Mr Robert Burns, eldest son of the poet, Mr Robert Armour, the widow's brother, and the husbands of three nieces, the Messrs Irving and Mr M'Kinnel. But theie were other chief mourners, and among those we observed Mr Dunlop, Southwick, Provost Murray, Dr John Symons, Mr Bogie, and Mr M'Diarmid. The grave was covered in a brief space ; the chief mourners then withdrew ; and after every thing foreign bad been removed from the vault, the executors gave the necessary directions for restoring the large stone which guards the entrance to the tomb of our great national poet. As this was a task of considerable labour, hours elapsed before it could be completed, and in tile interim, thousands had an opportunity of gratifying their curiosity by taking a parting look at the resting place of genius. On the day preceding the interment, the vault was opened by Mr Crombie— a work of considerable difficulty and labour. Mr Armour arrived from London by Monday's mail, and, after much anxious conversation, a reluctant and conditional consent to examine the poet's skull was obtained. At nine, the party conferred privately, and proceeded stealthily, one after an. other, by the quietest paths, and after clambering over the church- yard walls, met by appointment in front of the mausoleum. Mr Blacklock offered his services at a favourable moment, antl it was well we had a gentleman with us qualified to give a scientific account of the appearance, preservation, and peculiarities of the skull. While one of our number kept watch above, the rest o f t h e party descended into the vault by means of a ladder and a muffled lantern. Mr Crombie's knowledge of localities rendered the process of disinterment comparatively easy, and Mr Bogie, who had seen the skull in 1815, proclaimed its identity the moment it appeared. But in the absenee of such a witness, its size and character were quite sufficient to avouch the fact, and, after it had been carefully cleaned, a cast was taken from it before the parties retired to rest. In the execution of this duty they received the most efficient assistance from Mr James Fraser, plasterer, whose skill and style of handling would do no discredit toia London artist. Just as the party were about to separate the clock chimed the hour of one; and although ten individuals were present at the last, including our chief magistrate, Mr Hamilton, and Rector M'Millan, the largest bat of the whole was found too narrow to receive the skull— a sufficient proof of its extraordinary size. Early on Tuesday morning a leaden box was made, and care, fully lined with the softest materials, and on the same day we, as in duty bound, witnessed the reinteiment of the sacred relict it contained, previous to the funeral of Mrs Burns. A pious wi.- h expressed by Mr Matthews, the comedian, has at length been gratified, by removing the original tombstone from tne vault, and placing it within the iron railing which protects the sculpture. In accomplishing this the said railing had to be slightly enlarged; and the stone now occupies a position where it can be seen by all without being trode upon, or injured by any. The inscriptions upon it are as follow, the closing one having been chiselled within the last few days :— " In memory of Robert Burns, who died the 21st July 1796, in the 37th year of his age ; and Maxwell Burns, who died 25th April 1799, aged two years and nine mouths. Also, of F'rancis Wallace Burns, who died 9th July 1803, aged 14 years. Also, of Jean Armour, relict of the poet, born February 1765, died 26th March 1834." What follows is from the pen of Mr Blacklock :— " On Monday night, 31st Match 1834, Mr John M'DiarmicI, Mr Adam Rankine, Mr Jamc3 Ker, Mr James Bogie, Mr Andrew Crombie, and the subscriber, descended into the vault of the Mausoleum for the purpose of examining the remains of Burns, and, if possible, procuring a cast of his skull Mr Crombie having w itnessed the exhumation of the bard's remains in 18i5, and seen them deposited in their present resting- place, at once pointed out the exact spot where the head would be found, and a few spadefuls of loose sandy soil being removed, the skull was brought into view, and carefully lifted. " The cranial bones were perfect in every respect, if we except a little erosion of their external table, and firmly held together by their sutures ; even the delicate bones of the orbits, with the trifling exception of the os unguis in the left, were sound and uninjured by death and the grave. The superior maxillary bones still retained the four most posterior teeth on each side, including the dentes sapientise, and all without spot or blemish ; the incisores, cuspidati, & c. had, in all probability, recently dropt from the jaw, for the alveoli were but little decayed. The bones of the face and palate were also sound. Some small portions of black hair, with a very few grey hairs intermixed, were observed while detaching some extraneous matter from the occiput. Indeed nothing could exceed the high state of preservation in which we found the bones of the cranium, or offer a fairer opportunity of supplying what has so long been desiderated by phrenologists— a correct model of our immortal poet's head ; and ill order to accomplish this in the most accurate and satisfactory manner, every particle of sand, or other foreign body, was carefully washed off, and the plaster of Paris applied with all the tact and accuracy of an experienced artist. The cast is admirably taken, and can. not fail to prove highly interesting to phrenologists and others. 14 Having completed our intention, the skull, securely enclosed in a leaden case, was again committed to the earth precisely wheie we found it. " ARCHD. BLACKLOCK. " Dumfries, lst April 1834." SHOCKING ACCIDENT AT JOHNSTONE Last Friday, a fine little boy, aged eight and a half, years, went into the Laigb Mill, Bridge of Weir, to see his father, who is a spinner there, when unfortunately one of the belts caught him bv the neck; the father daited forward on perceiving him entangled, hut ere he could rescue the buy he had been carried three times round the drum, his body forced through a space no more than six or seven inches, so that he was racked to death ; the father's foot, in the agitation of the moment, also became entangled, and was severely lacerated. A meeting was held at Gainsborough on Tuesday for the purpose of forming an association for the protection of agriculture, in unison with other societies throughout the country.

In addition to Rattray's enlivening band, the excellent band belonging to the Cupar troop was also in attendance, and performed a variety of national airs in the course of the evening. YEOMANRY BALL The Kirkaldy Troop Ball, held in the Public Buildings there on Friday night, was the gayest assembly ever brought together in the " Lang Toun." It was attended by about 400 ladies and gentlemen, who were all highly delighted with the manner the fete was conducted throughout. The company began to arrive about eight o'clock, and dancing commenced before nine, and was kept up wilh more than usual spirit till five o'clock next morning. Among those present were— The Earl and Countess of Rothes, tbe Ladies Leslie and the Hon. Thomas Leslie ; Hon.

LANT S T E E P L E C I I A S E . — O n E a s t er Monday, the 31st March— a day of usual festivity — the annual steeple chase took place, for the cup given by Horatio Ross, Esq. M. P., with a sweepstakes added of five guineas each,— starting a few hundred yards from the one- mile stone on the Brechin road from Forfar, and finishing at Resteneth, about a mile from Forfar on the Montrose road— a circuit of four miles. Four horses entered: Mr Rait of Anniaton's bay horse, Mr Laird of Strathmartin's brown horse, Mr Dalzell's chesnut horse, Mr Hunter of Blackness's bay horse. At half past three o'clock, these four horses were mounted by their gallant riders — four such as are seldom seen north of the Tweed' to go across a country. At the word, all went away together at a steady gallop, with a mile and a half of fine old grass before them, intersected with fences of various descriptions— hedges, rails, walls, & c. The fences so far did not exceed four feet high, but some of them were wide enough to hold all the four, tire one above the other; but over such a country as this, chosen by the oldest, and yet one of the best sportsmen of Forfarshire, no gentleman could find any difficulty in steering his horse. The next two and a half miles was equally well selected, only plough instead of turf. In going through the old grass, Mr Rait's horse gradually crept away from tne others about fifty yards ; Mr Dalzell's following ; Mr Laird's and Mr Hunter's closing hard on him. Mr Hunter's horse refused a rail, and was beat off for a time. On taking a wall into the tirst plough, Mr Rait's horse went wrong side the flag. Mr Dalzell's, at this same stiff" wall, broke bis bridle and fell. Mr Laird's following close on Mr Rait, who still kept steering on, not being aware of having gone on the wrong side of tbe flag. In the bottom below Pitscandly, Mr Rait's went gallantly, taking all the walls in his stride. Mr Laird's horse here ran a good race with him, coming into the goal only a few lengths be. hind. Mr Balzell's rider caught his horse again ; went back to where he fell, and made a beautiful race, beating Mr Hunter's, who had by this time surmounted his difficulty of leaping rails and wide drains. There was an ordinary at Ross's Inn, Forfar, afterwards, which was well attended ; and the evening spent with that true feeling of unanimity which characterize all sportsmen. UNION AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The annual meeting of this Society was held at Kelso, on Tuesday the lst curt., when the various premiums and rewards offered by the Society were awarded. Both in point of numbers and quality the exhibition was considerably above an average one. Of shorthorned bulls, upwards of twenty were shown, the very Wheat. Barley. L . s . d. L. s. d.

There was a very limited show of wheat, barley, beans, and pease, from Essex, Kent, and Suffolk this morning, and since Friday there have been few fresh arrivals of oats, but a considerable quantity of this article was left over from the supplies of last week. There was a steady demand tor the diiest samples of wheat at fully the rates of last Monday, but the trade for all other descriptions was dull, without any variation in its value. F'lour was in limited request at last week's currency. Fine malting barley was taken off on much the same terms as during the past week, but the season drawing to a close, our maltsters, select with great caution. Malt was taken off slowly, tine samples only commanding the rates of this day se'ennight. Beans and pease cannot be quoted lower, although the demand was languid for both articles. There was a limited business transacted in oats, but fine fresh corn brought full as much money as was obtained on Friday, being a trifle under Monday's prices, but not sufficient to alter tbe currency. In linseed and rapeseed there was nothing passing worthy of notice. For cloverseed there was a good sale at the close of the past week, and the quantity remaining of line is to a small extent, but the demand was this morning trifling, and thus it was not dearer.

At llsley great sheep fair held on Wednesday last, there was a large number of sheep penned, and a pretty good attendance of buyers. I11 the morning extravagant prices were asked by the sellers, and not much business was done; but in the afternoon lower prices being asked, nearly all the sheep were sold at a pretty fair profit for wintering. The general price of tegs, was from 32s. to 36s. per head, and in one or two cases 40s. was given. On the whole the farmer has no reason to complain of the price of sheep, and we think that they fetch full as much money as they did last spring. NORWICH C A T T L E H I L L , S a t u r d a y , A p r i l 5 We have had a very full HiR of all descriptions of store beasts— Scots, short horned, Devons, and home breds, antl sales of all very slow. Fat beasts, very prime and handsome, difficult of sale at 6s. 6d. and 6s. per stone of 14 lb. sinking the offal. A very large show of sheep in the pens, sales heavy. Turnips being finished, and the grass not yet fit, may in some measure account for it, which was farther checked by the drop in the value of wool. Several lots of ewes and lambs had a pretty ready sale at 40s. to 50s. the couple, the firstrate condition. ROMSEY AND SALISBURY CHEESE FAIRS On Monday there was a large supply of cheese pitched at Romsey, the prices obtained for part of which were lower than at the late Manchester fair, skim producing from 20s. to 30s. ; half coward, 44s. to 50s.; North Wilts and white Somerset, 52s. to 60s.; red Somerset, 60s. to 67s. A large portion of the unsold cheese at Romsey was removed on Monday evening to Salisbury, which fair on Tuesday was unusually short of cheese, a considerable quantity having been left for the second day's sale at llomsey. The prices at Salisbury were fully equal to the above, and at both fairs a very large quantity was sold. NEWCASTLE, A p r i l 5 — A t this morning's maiket there was a larger supply of wheat than last week, and a good supply of oats. The quality and condition of the wheat being very good, sales were readily effected at a trifling reduction. Rye was in limited demand, and prices without alteration. Prime malt sold pretty freely, but inferior descriptions are exceedingly difficult to dispose of. Barley was in fair request, and prices remain steady. Oats met a brisk sale, and the best samples were Is. per quarter dearer. Pease and beans met with hardly any attention. There was a brisk retail trade for clover seed to- day, but our seedsmen having a supply to commence with, bought sparingly, as they do not wish to increase their stock be* fore they have disposed of part. Current prices— Wheat, Northumberland, White, per quarter, 44s. to 51s. ; do. red, 48s. to 52s. Norfolk, and Suffolk white, 48s. to 52s. ; do. red, 46s. to 50s.

Since our last report there has been more business passing in the wheat trade than for some weeks previous ; several parcels of Irish red have been taken on speculation, and on Friday a cargo of fine quality was retailed at 6s. Id. per 70 lbs. The low rates accepted for Irish flour, 33s. to 39s. per sack, according to quality ( the latter being an extreme quotation, even for the choicest marks), have given it a freer sale, but the quantity on the market is slill large, and is a check to any material advance in prices of wheat. The market is bare of oats ; a cargo of fine Irish mealing have been sold at 2s. 7d. per 45 lbs. Oatmealjstill moves slowly at 21s. to 22s. per load. No attention to note as regards barley, beans, or pease. Except the sale of a few hundred brls. of sour flour at about 17s. 6d. per brl. there has not been a transaction in the bonded market. Free.

It- c « Al< m<, « « , 1 Joseph Ratcliffe, an overlooker in Mr Walker's hemp manufactory in Leeds, was tried at York on Wednesday, 011 a charge of the manslaughter of a hoy in the factory. It was proved that the man had repeatedly beaten this poor lad in a most barbarous manner; and on one occasion fastened a rope round his neck, threw the end of it over a steam- pipe, and hung him up till his face was black j he then let him down, and beat him with the rope, The boy went to his work; but next day complained his neck was stiff; was taken to the Leeds Infirmary; and, after lingering for eight weeks, died of a dis ease in the spine. It was proved for the prisoner that the boy's father was of a scrofulous halit, which encourages spinal complaints. Mr Walker, his employer, and several other persons, gave the prisoner a good character. He was found guilty, and sentenced to twelve monihs' imprisonment. By accounts from the Cape of Good Hope to the 26th of January, we learn that a meeting of the principal colonists had been held for the purpose of drawing up a petition to his Majesty, praying that a settlement might be made at P o i t Natal, on the eastern coast of Africa, the vicinity of which is stated lo be peculiarly favourable for agricultural undertakings, while its proximity to the sea, and imposition as regaieled the neighbouring tribes, afforded the means of carrying on to a considerable j a n insufficient supply of provisions, and every thing extent an internal antl external trade, The petition necessary for the comfort and wellare of passengers. which obtained premiums were very superior specimens of the breed. In cows and queys, especially the latter, the show was of a very superior description, fact which promises to do more towards the keepin,, up of a valuable breed in the country, than even the possession of excellent bulls, for every day's experience quality, moderately good ; its supply of calves and porkers but limited.

From far and near, from the densely populated seats of manufacturing industry and the lonely and secluded Highland glens, those wlio are desirous of exchanging their native haunts for the scenes and society of the Western World are now flocking to our port, or have already taken their departure from it, f'or those lands which they intend shall henceforth be their homes. The following emigrant vessels have lately proceeded on their respective voyages, or are cleared out, but windbound in our harbour:— The John Denniston, for New York, 18 passengers.

Several blood stallions were also shown, which attracted considerable notice; among others the celebrated horse Canteen, now the property of his Grace the Duke of Buccleuch; Mr Taylor cf Presson's horse, Percy, was also much admired. In Leicester antl Cheviot sheep, especially rams, the show was more numerous than of late years, and their quality was excellent. Several of the Leicester ewe hogs were possessed of great merit; the pig exhibited by Mr Darling, Chirnside, as extra stock, was really a wonderful animal. Besides the bulls competing for the premiums, there was a number for sale, many of which met wilh a market. In connecting the ploughing match, and also the exhibition of seeds, & c., with the general show of live stock, the interest hitherto taken in these annual meetings has been considerably increased ; and it is pleasing to observe, that this useful and patriotic institution, after having been now established for twenty. one years, continues not only to meet with the general support and approbation o f t h e community, but is enabled to extend its fostering and protecting care over a still wider range than was anticipated at the commencement of its labours. The weather was exceedingly favourable, which, with the extent and vaiiety of the exhibition, in its different departments, caused the town to be consider, ably crowded, and fully occupied the attention of the public throughout the whole of the day. Soon after four o'clock, a company, consisting of about 130 members and wellwishers of the institution, sat down to dinner in the Cross Keys Inn, where Lore! John Scott, one of the Vice- Presidents of the Society, took the chair, Captain R. Walker, R. N., the Treasurer, acting as croupier. After spending a social apt!
