MINERAL TALLOW. This rare substance, which was discoveied in Finland in 1736, has la.eiv been found in a bog on the borders of Loch-Fyne, in Scotland. It has the colour and feel of tallow, and is tasteless. It melts at 118 degrees, and boils at 290 degrees ; when melted, it is transparent and colou: les, ; on cooling, becomes spongy and though not so much sons at first. It is insoluble water, but soluble in alcohol, oil of turpentine, olive ill, wit; naphtha, while these liquids are hot ; hot it is 1 -ecipitated again when they cool. Its specific gravity, in its natural state, is 0.6078, but the tallow is full of air babbles ; and after fu.ion, which disengages the air, the specific gtavity is 0.98:3, which is rather higher than that of tailow. It does not combine with alkalis, nor form soap. Thus it iliffers from every class of bodies known—from the fixed oils in not forming soap, and j from the volatile oils and ilitumens in being tasteless and de-aitute of smell. Its volatility and combustibility ate equal to those of any volatile oil or naphtha.— Edinburgh Philosophical Journal. Tricks of f akers Unmasked. A Letter addressed to the Right Hon. the Lord Mayor of Lyndon. Bvo. pp. 28. To a London housekeeper this must rove an ap palling letter, harrowing up his very soul to think how often and to what an extent he has been robbed of his viands on S.indays. The anther's account may, we think, be received without besitati , tr, as he seems to make no secret what ever of the pal t lie acted in these Sunday depredations. We need not hunt through the letter for a fit specimen of the rognety of both master and man. We shall take the first place he had after his arrival in London from Wiltshire, where he served his apprenticeship. He was employed by a master baker in the neighbourhood of Bloomsbury-square, at 4s. a week and his board. " I had not been long in the service (says he) before I became fully acquainted with London honesty ! for on the first Sunday after I entered my service I had to attend with the other men the baking of the dishes of meat and other things which were brought to the shop; the custom being to leave the dish and receive a ticket in return for it. As I was the underman, it became my duty to take the dishes out of the shop into the bake house ; the second hand, as the cant phrase is, shaves the meat (that is to say) cuts as much off from each joint as he thinks will not be missed ; the foreman drains the water off, and puts the dishes in the oven till they require to be turned ; after which the liquid fat is drained from each dish, and the deficiency is supplied with water ; this fat is the master's perquisite. Being a novice in this part of the business, on one occasion, instead of pouring the fat into its proper receptacle, I emptied the fat from a leg of pork into my young master's boot, which terribly scalded his leg and foot. Upon the return •of my master, mistress, and their daughter, from Spa Fields Chapel, seeing their son Charles's leg in bandages, for the skin had come off with his stocking, the mother exclaimed 0 Charles, what is the matter with your leg?'—' Why, mother, (responded the afflicted youth) whilst we were turning the dinners, this stupid countryman, instead of pouring the fat into the pan, pouted the fat of a large leg of pork into my boot, and scalded me terribly; 0! (dies the tender mother), Mr. B. you always engages stupid countrymen!' Being at the top of the stairs lis tening, I was reminded of the old adage, that.lis teners seldom hear any good of themselves.' It may be plainly seen, between master and man, that by these perquisites, the public loses two ounces on each pound of meat, and these being a mutual understanding be tween master and man, there is little fear of detection. MT master soictly forbad me from resorting to Bakers Houses of Call, for he said they were guilty of all kinds of vice. Scarcely a week elapsed in this ho nest baker's service, but I had a loaf to pay for, with which my master overcharged my account: to remedy this imposition, I bought a memorandum book, wherein I wrote the number of loaves I daily received from my master, and each customer's name to whom I delivered the bread, and thus fairly detected my master's roguery, not only in cheating me, but his customers also, by making in the trade's cant phrase, Dead nien I* I mentioned this circumstance to some other journeymen, who told me the dead men' ought to be my perqui site, and finding the customers did not detect the impo sition, or have their bills examined t I began to deal in ' dead men,' determined not to bury any after Wed nesday, for fear they should rise in judgment against me at the weekly settlements; and if my master at tempted to bury his dead men' in the same ground, I took care to detect him, and to tell him of it before the bills were carried in to the customers, when he would say it was a mistake. I soon became master of killing and burying, but wanted a confidential undertaker, being but a simple countryman. One day my master said to me, JAnes, you keep a book against me.' I answered, 6 I did, as I had paid him for many loaves I never received, and it was the best way to rectify mis takes. Well, (he replied), I have been in business forty years, and never before did any journeyman keep an account against me.' Sir, (says I), you very fre quently make mistakes.' He replied, You have found out the Houses of Call, and if you frequent them, you will not suit my service.' This happened in the summer of 1796, when Our business was slack. The second hand going away, I took his place, and was retained at sixteen shillings per week, with lodging, bread, beer, and a Sunday's dinner ; my board scarce cost anything, as I had plenty of broken victuals given me; besides, sse kept a sharp knife in the bakehouse, which would shave off a dinner to :t hair's breadth. But notwithstanding my promotion, and the advantages attached to it, I round upon comparison, that four shillings per week, with the spoils of the' dead men,' were more profitable. I frequently detected my master in his deficient weigh ings of the flour ; when ordered to take a peck of flour to a Gentleman's house, the quantity seldom exceeded ten pounds, instead of fourteen pounds; and if a half peck, live pounds instead of seven pounds; the ser vants never thought about the weight, it being imme oiately emptied into the flour tub, and if any fault was alterwards found, it was attributed to a mistake." The foregoing, n hich is a general species of robbery in London, acorn ding to this practical agent, sinks how. ever into perrect insigniticance when compared with the profits that accrue from a contract to furnish the military with wheaten hi eati of g )ed quality. Instead of ,'hex*, a mixture of wheat, barley, rye, oats, beans, peis and caravairser4s (in American legume), was em • Dead men,' in the baker4' cant. are loaves iharged to the cus.: nant.r* which were tn.ret deliveitki to them. ‘.. • ItUitt . .v11) • „1 - GI% ** Pi. - - N•S --"" : 1 tf • •P " • C " . VP' VI played, el leaven instead of yeast, and seawater was used :as a subititute for salt ; our bakehouse was contiguous to the sea, an arm of which wa.hed its walls, and here ' first became acquainted with the use of salt water in the making of bread. The bakehouse contained six evens, each of which at a batch baked seven hundred and twenty pounds of bread, and four of the s e batches were drawn in tuenty•four hours. The daily consump tion of flour and its appendages were forty-eight sacks, that is to say, a mixture of wheat, barley, rye, oats, beans, peas, &c. Now it requires four pounds of salt to work a sack of flour into bread, and as the Contrac tor used salt water, the gift of the elements, in lieu of salt, he pocketed the value of one hundred and ninety two pounds of salt, or ninety-five thousand eight hun dred and eighty-eight pounds sterling during the period of the thirteen lunar months of his contract ! What a fraud upon the revenue! What wickedness towards the poor prisoners, whom Government required to be duly nourished, and for which a remunerating price was most punctually paid. The fact was, that we were unable to eat a morsel of the bread ourselves." ( To be continued.) IMPROVEMENTS OF THE AGE. Amongst all the improvements of the age, none per haps are more striking than those which have recently been made, and indeed are at present making, in the language of ordinary life ; it is not merely by the intro duction of foreign words and phrases into the English tongue, or the designation of places of amusement, or shops, or carriages, by alien titles, that this great alter ation is working, but by the adoption of figurative phraseology and elegant expressions, which bid fair to rival the former foppery of Eupheuism. Who in these days ever reads of boarding-schools?— nobody : they are transformed into academies for bays and seminaries for girls—the higher classes are " Estab lishments; a coach-maker's shop is a " Repository for Carriages;" a milliner's a 44 Depot ;" a thread-seller's an " Emporium." One buys drugs at a 0 Medical Hall," wines of a " Company," and shoes at a " Mart;" black ing is dispensed from an " Institution," and meat from a 44 Purveyor." These have long been evident it is true ; but we disregard them all in comparing the effect likely to be produced upon society by the adoption of such gross absurdities, with that which probably will result from the introduction into the language itself-of others still more glaring. For instance, instead of reading, that after a ball the company did not go away till daylight, we are told that " the joyous group continued tripping on the light fantastic toe until Sol gave them warning to deparr. If one of the company happened on his way to tumble into a ditch, we should be informed that " his foot slipped, and he was immersed in the liquid element." A good supper is described as snaking the 44 tables groan with every delicacy of the season." A crowd of briefless lawyers, unbeneficed clergymen, and half.pay officers, are enumerated as a " host of fashion" at a watering-place, where we are also informed that ladies, instead of taking a dip before breakfast, " plunge them selves fearlessly into the bosom of Neptune." _ A sheep killed by lightning is a thing unheard of; the animal may be destroyed by the "electric fluid ;' but even then we should not be told that it was dead: we should be informed that " the vital spark had fled for ever." If the carcase were picked up by a carpen ter or shoemaker, we never should hear that a journey man tradesman had found it; we should be told that its remains had been discovered by an 44 operative artisan." All little girls, be their faces ever so plain, pitted, or pitiable, if they appear at a public office to complain of robbery, or ill-treatment, are invariably " intelligent and interesting ;" if they have proceeded very far in crime, they are called " unfortunate females r should they by any accident have a prospect of becoming mothers, we are informed " that they are in a way that ladies wish to be who love their lords." Child murder is elegantly termed " infanticide ;" and when it is punished capitally, we hear, not that the unnatural mother was hanged, but that " the unfortunate culprit underwent the last sentence of the law, and was launched into eternity." No person reads in the newspapers that a house has been burnt down; he perhaps will end " that the house fell a sacrifice to the flames." In an account of a launch we learn, not that the ship went off the slip without any accident, but that " she glided securely and majestically into her native element, the said native element being one in which the said ship never was before. To send for a surgeon if one's leg be broken, is out of the question ; a man indeed " may be dispatched for medical aid." There are now no public singers at tavern dinners— they are " the professional Gentlemen ;" and actors are all " professors of histrionic art." A kept-mistress is not to be found from Grosvenor-place to Bethnal Green: they are " Ladies living under the protection of Gen tlemen." Widows themselves are scarce : they are all " interesting relicts ;" and as for nursery maids, they are now-a-days universally transformed into "young persons who superintend the junior branches of the family." - These little delicacies and refinements appear to us to threaten the plain, sensible, straightforward language of John Bull; and however sweet to double-refined minds, and however charming in very polite society, are in plain narratives and public papers contemptiblyabsurd. Friday se'nnight, a melancholy accident happened on the road between Kilmacolm and Port-Glasgow. A noddy with two Gentlemen, which was driven by Alex ander M'Donald, of the Port-Glasgow Inn, was coming down Clune Brae, when one of the wheels struck a large stone projecting from the side of the road, and such was the concussion that the driver was unfortunately thrown head foremost out of his seat, and pitching with great violence upon his head, almost instantly expired. The coach proprietors in all parts of the country have sustained great losses is horses from the excessive heat of the weather during the last week; and it ap pears the London coach-rpasters are not a ithout their share. We have heard of one who, on Thursday, lost four valuable horses; another two; another two in one stage only. A poor man named Pocock, who lived near the Bull and Pump public-house, in Coleham, near Shrewsbury, on ‘Vednesday returned from his work unwell. Next day, he set off to his business, but was compelled to return. His wife left him, and went out leasing. When she was reproached for so doing, she answered, He is a rogue, and when I go home I will turn him out of the Louse." It appears that she did so ; for the unfortu nate man was found next morning laid on the grass in an adjoining field. In this state be was again left next day (Friday) by his wife, who again went out leasing. Early on Sunday morning he expired. Not long ago a child of this woman's was left alone in the house,. when it drank out of a boilicz tea-kettle, and expired. "'" "ME _.~.. .i ?+ i. _. ::..._ :. RIVAL FXS_RURS. In the year 1756, Signor Florentini and Monsieur St. Laurent, two rival friseurs, lived in DO:4th, and practised for some years with nearly equal success and reputation. The Frenchman, however, by his talent at agreeable satire, with which he entertained every Lady under his hands, at the expense of her absent acquaint ances, during the time of his operation, had manifestly attained a great ascen(lant over the Italian. This in duced Florentini to make a bold effort to raise his own reputation and ruin his rival, whose great character he ' envied, and whom he wished to destroy. He theiefore availed himself of the first opportunity of sending to the Dublin Universal Advertiser the following notice, which gate rise to a spirited controversy on the part of the French Knight of the Comb, who wished to establish for himself the motto of his illustrious countryman Bayard—Sans pear et sans reproche. A DV ERTISIDIENT. Signor Florentini having taken into consideration the many in: conveniences which attend the method of hair-dressing formerly used by himself. and still practised by M. St. Laurent, humbly proposes to the Ladles of quality in this metropolis his new method of stuccoing the head in the most fashionable taste, to last, with very little repair, during the whole Session of Parliament. Price only five guineas. FLORENTI NI. N.B. lie takes but one hour for buildineup the head, and 'two for baking it. _ _ ANSWEIL BY Sr, LAITRINT. Whereas dere have appear vone scandaleuse advertisement of , Signior Florentini, much reflecting on M. St. Laurent's capacite for hair-dressing ; he defy said Signior Florentini to tell any sone inconvenience dat do attend his methode, ()demise he shall con bider said Florentini as baute-fau, and calumniateur. ST. LAURENT. Florentini, who was not so perfect in his English as the other, replied by his intv•preter Whereas M. St. Laurent has challenged Signior Florentini to pro duce an instance where his (St. Laurent's) method of dressing hair is inconvenient to the Ladies : He begs to observe, that three rows of iron pins thrust into the skull, will not fail to cause a constant itching, a sensation that much distorts the features of the face, and disables it so that the Lady may lose the use of her face ; besides, the immense quantity of pomatum anal powder laid on for a genteel dressing will, after a week or two, breed mites, a circumstance very disagreeable to Gentlemen whe do not love cheese, and also does afford a fetid smell not to be endured; from which, and other objections too tedious to mention, Signior Florentini apprehends his new method is entirely free, and will admit of no reasonable objec tion whatever. FLO RENT' N L ST. LAURENT RIII'LItS. Ha ! ha! ha! Dere is no objeshin, den, to Signior Florentini's way of frizing de hair of fine Lady? I shall tell him vone, two, three. In the forst place, he no consider dat his stucco's ♦ill be 'crack, and be brake by de frequent jolts to which all Ladies are so sobject, and dat two hour baking sill spoil de compiekshon, and hest de eyes. And as to his scandaleuse aspersion, dat my method breed a de rsik, so odious to Gentlemen who don't love de cheese, I say 'tis false and malicieuse ; and to niak good vat I say, I do invite all Gentlemen of qualitie to examine the head of the Countesse of Arran (rich I had de honour to dress four veeks ago) next Monday, at twelve o'clock, through Monsieur Closent's microscope, and see If dere be any mire vate'er. N. B.—Any Gentleman any smell her Ladyship's he& fen be please. The controversy ended in a duel, but no blood was shed ; but in consequence of the quarrel, the monstrous 'fashion soon ceased, and in a few months the Ladies' heads recovered their. natural proportion, and became a piece of themselves. It may not be generally known, that friendly societies subscribing for benefit in sickness, or for a provision for their widows and children, are permitted to invest their funds in any Savings Banks, or directly with the Com missioners for the reduction of the national debt, thereby receiving the full allowance of 41. Ils. Sd. per Cent. granted to Savings Banks ; but a certificate must be furnished, purporting that the society is constituted agreeably to the 59th of Geo. 111. c. 182. By an Act lately passed, persons occupying farms of less value than 1001. per annum, and making a liveli hood solely thereby as owner or tenant, are exempt from the duty in respect of any dog not being a greyhound, hound, pointer, setting-dog, spaniel, !archer, or terrier, which has been or shall be bona fide and wholly kept and used by such occupier, or by any person employed by him, as a shepherd, on his farm, in the care of sheep. The 19th ultimo, the Marquis of Douglas and Clydesdale, accompanied by his tutor, visited the ex tensive Co al-works at Redding, on the banks of the Union Canal, belonging to his hither, the Duke of Ha milton, after which he proceeded to the Royal Burgh of Linlithgow, and viewed the venerable ruins there. He then rode north to Borrowtounneu, where he was greeted by a. number of the respectable tenantry on Kinneil estate, and the inhabitints bf the town, who were highly gratified with this opportunity of sliming their respect for the promising heir apparent of the Noble family of Hamilton. His arrival was announced by the firing of cannon and the display of flags from the ships and King's boat at the port; and in the midst of these rejoicings he arrived at Kinneil House about seven o'clock P. M. where he remained all night, and next day, after viewing Carron Iron-works, proceeded to visit his noble relatives at Dunmore Park. Jean Bard was lately tried at Rouen, for poisoning his wife and children. He was . a peasant, and had dissipated his property. Fired at the just reproaches of his wife, he resolved to get rid of her, and accordingly put poison into a soup, which he gave to his wife and 'children. The woman, the oaly person who died from taking the poison, declared to the last she had been poi soned by her husband. Seven of the Jury were of opinion that he was guilty, and five that he was innocent. The Judges were of the same opinion as the majority of the Jury, and Bard was sentenced to be executed ! • Citiecratttv.—There is a tailor going about the coun try pasts of England. His plan is to cure by incanta tion, prayer, &c. The fellow is eternally drunk. but never staggers, and is possessed of one of those phleg matic brandy faces which only grows more solemn in its appearances as his intellects become fuddled. A wo man applied to him lately to request him to come to see her sick husband. She found him in the back parlour of an inn, booted, spurred, and (although she could not perceive it)-drunk. He was walking to and fro, with his hands behind his back, when the poor woman en tered the apartment. " Please your Honour, I come to beg you to see my husband, who is lying very ill." No answer, but still pacing up and down. " He is very ill, I assure your Worship. I hope you will come, Sir."— Not a word! After a long silence—" I hope, Sir, you'll be so kind as to come and see my poor husband; I will pay you anything you demand." Still not a word; but. a few mutterings, and a turn up of the drunken eye balls, and still pacing about. The woman approached the doctor, pulled him by the coat, and in the most we• nuous terms renewed her entreaties, but still he conti nued walking up and down, and muttering some non sense to himself. At last she pulled him violently by the coat, when he turned round, and, in a gruff tone; cried—" Hould your tongue, d—n you!—l'm busy curing a man in America: I'll be ready for you by and bye," and then began pacing and muttering again. This pacified the poor woman, who waited patiently until the American was cured. ViaVA _ _ aga.- POLICE INTELLIGENCE. —Nor- MANSION—HOUSE. A prang man of respectable appearance; who stated that he wa r a native of - Brussels, and had been in the Preneh and 'Spanish se r „ vice, applied to the LORD MAYOR for relief. Ile htd .been in th e army of Napoleon from his 14th yest up to the dot, otalitlication, and had risen from the condition of a private to that of au Officer of some rank. He had fought. in several bhttles wlai6h.tetinitatcl triumphantly for the British troops, and had received sev eral wounds. After the complete dethronenvent of Napoleon, he a c „ cepted the offer of general amnesty made by Louis XVIII. and his education was almost wholly military, he thought he could rot better employ himself than in the service of the hereditary monarch, under whose banners he immediately placed himself ; but the ct , r duct of France to the Spanish patrloti fully proved to him the ne_ cessity of abandoning a cause which was admitted to be a irws and indefensible interference upon the part of the French Govern. ment, and he not only separated himself from the army of the ie. vader, but joined that of the invaded. Upon the terrnin:,ti,y, the struggle of the Patriots, be was obliged to By, and 4. I:r i Jri d was the only country in which he could madder biniselt 'ate, he came to it, but not without encountering great difficulties. The LORD MAYOR said, be feared that as the applicant was a French subject, there was no Society to which his cal? could br referred with any great hope of seeress. Mr. Ithwrinz, i i „,„ tr. of the Spanish Committee, would no doubt do all in his pow e r a person in such circumstances as had been described, as cant's efforts in the cause certainly entitled hint to the war n of consideration of tire Committee, if those efforts could be proved to have been exercised. The applicant was grateful for the reciption he had nw-: with in his distress. An elderly man, in ditty clothes, of a devout exterior and gloomy physiugnorny, was brought before the LORD Marcos on a charge 44 having excited a disturbance. He had been in the habit, sev era l Sundays past, of going into Houndstlitch, and endeavouring to convert the Jews. His preaching attracted large crowds. and at length created such disturbances that it became requisite, In order to preserve the peace, to take him into custody. The preacher said that he had been twenty years since licensed at Portsmouth to preach. lie was by trade a shoenral,r. it,, name was Stanmore. The conversion of the Jews to the beliet of the Gospeb was a thing which he had greatly at heart, and he 11,4 long and sorely laboured for the benefit of those ungodly and rt. ailing people. His Intention, he assured Ms Lot ddilp, was good. The Loan Maros said be had nothing to do with the defendria's intentions. Those who undertook to convert the Jews must di , it by peaceable means, and not raise mobs, and disturb others in .Le exercise of their religious worship on the Sabbath. BOW-STREET. A young Irishman made an application to Sir IL Matrix f o r ad. vice under these circumstances :—A person, calling hiinself " Sir Charles Farrington, Ban." engaged hint as his valet, and professed to be about to depart upon a tour on the Continent. lie assured the applicant that he should accompany him wherever he went, and he treated him altogether with so much kindness, and seemed so perfectly the Gentienian, that the applicant thought himself the most fortunate fellow alive. " Sir C." was sojourning at Jaunay', Hotel, Leicester-square, and thither the applicant took his boxes, containing his little all. In a very short time, Sir Charles, under one pretext or other, borrowed all the money that the applicant happened to be possessed of, and suddenly disappeared, leaving hi, bill at the Hotel unpaid. The Proprietor of the Hotel now de tained the applicant's trunks for the pretended Baronet's unpaid id I. Sir R. Massa said, it war au extremely hard case, but he thought that the Proprietor of the Hotel would give up the applicant's trunk., upon a proper representation being made to him. H ATTON- GA RDEN. Mrs. &Irak Fins, a dashingly dressed female, about XI, lately re siding in Southampton-row, Bloomsbury, was charged wi t h swind ling, by Ann Heller, a chandler's-shop-keeper. She stated that 31rs. Foss, about three months ago, came to her shop and s.ad .he bad taken a house of a Mr. Bryant in that neighbourhood, and that .he kept a livery and two maid-servants. On this false representatiou she trusted her to the amount of a pound, when the prisoner gave her a bill, which she could not take, it being good for nothing. On calling on her for the money, she told her to go to for it, for she would not give it her.—Mrs. Heller was seconded by numerous tradespeople, who preferred similar charges against the prisoner. —Remanded. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. Jokst Todd, a man respectable m point of appearance, was brougb: from &. James's watch-house, charged with insulting and assaulting a young Lady, the night before, in the street. John Appleby, a boy, about 15 years of age, was charged by James Jackson, an apprentice of Mr. Mitchel, butcher, 265, Oxford-nice, with having robbed him of a silver watch, drain, and seals.—Hz was fully committed, and the parties bound over to prosecute. UNION-HALL. Jain Willoughby, a dark-complexioned young man. shabbily dressed, was yeuerday brought up on suspicion of having stolen several horses, belonging to different individuals, about Christmas last.—The prisoner was remanded.
