Here the youthful and the old, Here the fearful and the bold, Here the matron and the maid, In one silent bed are laid : Here the vassal and the King Side by side lie withering; Here the sword and sceptre rust— " Earth to earth, and dust to dust !" Age on age shall roll along O'er this pale and mighty throng; Those that wept them, those that weep, MI shall with these sleepers sleep. Brothers, sisters of the worm, Summer's sun, or winter's storm, Sodg of peace, or battle's roar, Ne'er shall break their slumbers more. Death shall keep his sullen trust— " Earth to earth, and dust to dust !" But a day is coming fast, Earth, thy mightiest and thy last, It shall come in fear and wonder, Heralded by trump and thunder; It shall come in strife and toil, It shall come in blood and spoil. It shall come in empires groans, Burning - temples, trampled thrones: Then, ambition, rue thy lust!— " Earth to earth, and dust to dust !" Then shall come the judgment sign; In the east the Kin shall shine ; Flashing from heaven's golden gate, Thousand thousands round his state ; Spirits with the crown and plume,: Tremble then, thou sullen tomb! Heaven shall open on our sight, Earth be turn'd to living light. Kingdoms of the ransont'd just— " Earth to earth, and dust to dust !" Then thy Mount, Jerusalem, Shall be gorgeous as a gem; Then shall in the deserts rise Fruits of more than Paradise ; Earth by Angel feet be trod; One great garden of her Goo; Till are dried the martyr's tears, Through a glorious thousand years. Now in hope of use we trust— , " Earth to earth, and dust to dust I" NATIONAL LIBRARY. The pile of building erected is the garden of the Thitish Museum, for the reception of the library given by the King to the Museum, is nearly in a finished state. The front of the building, looking towards Bedford square, is faced with stone, 3lnd the projection of the , centre is ornamented with four half columns of the lonic order, fluted, and a pilaster at each end, of the same order, which support a pediment. The cornice, &c. 6 f the order, is placed at the top of the wall, along the whole of this side, wrought in stone. The entrance is at the end of Montagu-o;se. The first apartment on the rigi.t is of very great length, extending to the pro jection in the centre of the building into which it leads: that part of the room which corresponds to the centre division of the exterior of the building, is ornamented on each side with two Corinthian columns, the shaft and base of which are of marble, very highly polished ; the capitals of the columns are not executed in the same sort of marble, but are variegated, and are extremely beautiful ; they also have a very high polish. The ad joining room is nearly equal in dimensions to the first,- beyond which there are two other rooms; the whole of this suite of apartments, which are very lofty, are of an equal height, and decorated at top with an enriched cornice, frieze, /cc. which encircles the whole of the rooms. The ceilings are of a most magnificent descrip tion, being richly ornamented in a light and elegant manner. The frame work which supports this ceiling is entirely of iron, which renders the building fire-proof ; very strong iron girders are placed at intervals across i the walls to support the work. The rooms are lighted by a row of windows on both sides, of equal dimensions, and extend the whole length of the building. The party wall:, which divide the apartments, are decorated at the angles with double-faced pilasters of highly polished marble. A broad stone staircase in the entrance hall leads to a corresponding suite of rooms above, of the same extent as those below, though much lower; the ceilings are ornamented in a very chaste style, and light is admitted into these rooms by skylights in the roof. The principal patt of the roof is of cast iron ; it has a very slight rise, so that it is not seen from the ground. It is covered with copper. Sows or ma Cutaciv.—Yesterday the General An nual Court of this Corporation was held at the Corporation House, Vo. 2, Bloomsbury-place, Bloomsburyaquare, when the (dicers fur the ensuing year were appointed. A Court of Assistants was held immediately after, when several petitions from Curates were taken into consideration, and orders given to allocateportions of the funds tothe petitioners. LivzarooL, Nov. 8.- - Our cotton market is not very active this week, but remains steady in prices generally, and about 4 000 bags sold, including this day. The important process of wheat-sowing is nearly com pleted in the county of Worcester, and a more favour able season for it, in every respect, is scarcely within the memory of the oldest cultivator of the soil. A con siderable breadth of the young plant is already above the ground, and is wearing the most healthy and pro mising appearance. Yesterday afternoon, just after the return of the civic procession from Westminster by water, as-two children were crossing Great Surrey -street, from Upper Ground. sheet, on their return home in Green-walk, Holland street, they were robbed of their caps, value 18s. by a fellow, who got clear off. A beautiful young tiger arrived in the East India Company's ship Neptune, from Soolapatam. The ani mal is so perfectly tame and playful, that when on the voyage he had his full liberty on the deck like a dog. and at niet the mate allowed him to sleep in his cnddy It is said that Government have it in contemplation to invest the Commissioners of Insolvent Courts with power to commit to the House of Correction and hard labour such debtors as may be convicted of wilful and fraudulent cunduct towards their creditors.

DUMFRIES, der:int S. • At a Meeting of the Quarter 'Session:held here last week, Mr. David Johnston, writer in Dumfries, was ap pointed assistant to Mr. Shortt, in the office of procu rator-fiscal for the county of Dumfries.--Mr. Shoat has held the office of procurator-fiscal for a period of up wards of forty years, with general credit to himself, and great satisfaction to the public. On the 2d instant, the elegant grand new bridge over the river Annan, at that burgh, was opened for the •service of the public. On the arrival• of the mail coach, the Magistrates in chaises, accompanied by the con , tractor, superintendant, surveyor; Ikc..with the horses 'decorated with ribands, and preceded by the burgh 'officers, went with the mail along it, in the midst of several hundred spectators who-cheered them as they went along with loud huzzas. It is one of the best built and most substantial structures-of the kind between Portpatrick and London, and does great credit to every person concerned in its erection. MURDERS NEAR LEATHERHEAD. It will be recollected, in our account of the re-appre hension of W. Page, that appeared in our paper of yesterday. Grassmith, the officer, was immediately dis• -patched into the country, for the purpose of collecting together all the clothes, tools, and ether atticles belong ing to Page and Mary Ayres, in order to discover, on examination, whether amongst them anything should be found that would be likely to lead to the discovery of the perpetrators of the murders. The officer having executed the duty upon which he was dispatched, reached town again at an early hour yesterday morning, bringing with him a variety of property belonging to Page, consisting chiefly of clothes, and the tools with which he worked at kis trade of shoemaking. Shortly after his arrival, Hall, the chief constable, and Pople, the officer, both of whom have been absent for some days collecting information on the subject of the mur ders, brought up Mary Ayres hi custody, from Fetchatn. At eleven o'clock, on the arrival of the presiding Magistrate, R. J. Chambers, Esq. he directed the chief constable to proceed to Horsemonger-lane gaol, and bring before him Page and Mary Ayres. The prisoners were accordingly conducted to the office in a coach, &Rowed by a vast multitude of people, who. were anxious to get a sight of two individuals against whom strong suspicion has been attached ever since the com mission of the murders. The crowd bad increased to such a degree before the entrance into the office, that it was found necessary to place constables outside in order to prevent the confusion and inconvenience at tendant upon a mob of that description. Previous to the examination of the prisoners, R. Hedger, and S. Davis, Esqrs. Magistrates of the county, entered the office, when a conversation took place between them and Mr. Chambers, the result of which was, that it was judged necessary for the ends of public justice that the in vestigation should be strictly private for the pre sent. The prisoners were therefore taken into the pri vate parlour and separately examined before the above named Magistrates, on suspicion of having been impli cated in the murders of John Akehnrst and Elizabeth Haines. In the course of the investigation, which lasted from 11 o'clock until half past 5 in the afternoon, several witnesses were examined, whose evidence corroborated that of Smith given before the Rev. Mr. BoUand, at Fetchers, with respect to the identity of Page and Ayres, as having attended Leatherhead fair on the 11th of October, two days previous to the perpetration of the murders. The man, nicknamed "Screw," was also examined, and his depositions were taken at great length by Mr. Staples, the chief clerk. They are of the utmost importance as regards the charges against the prisoners. At the conclusion of the investigation, the Magistrates, under all the circumstances of the case, remanded the prisoners for further examination on a future day, desiring that they should be kept sepa rate while in gaol. They were then taken bask to Horsemonger lane gad in the coach which awaited for them, followed by a con course of spectators. Gibraltar Papers to the 19th ult. have arrived. The Cadiz Dial* Mercantil contains an account of the cap ture of several Spanish vessels by the Algerines, and an official account from Cape de Gatt, of a fruitless at tempt made by the boats of their squadron to carry off five vessels, which had sought shelter in the anchoring ground of St. Peter's Castle. The enemy were driven back by a brisk fire of muske:ry from the inhabitants and Royalist volunteers of the neighbourhood, who had assembled on the heights which commanded the land ing place. A letter has been received from an Officer of his Majesty's ship Aluma, Capt. Annals, on the West India station, giving an account of the capture of a Spanish slave schooner, under Dutch colours, attended with most horrible circumstances. It appears that two Officers, with a boat's crew, were sent . on board the vessel to examine her papers. The Captain represented her as a Dutch schooner, laden with sugar, and after searching a considerable time, nothing to the contrary was discovered. Something, bowever,having occurred to raise their suspicion, one of the Officers descended into the hold, and after some search accidentally perceived the leg of a black man under a curtain, and on pulling the curtain aside, more than 240 slaves were found in a state of dreadful disease and starvation l They had been at sea, from the coast of Guinea, 47 days; and 60, of three hundred and odd, had died on the passage, together with Three others the day after the capture.— Only one day's provision was left in the ship; and on throwing a yaps (a vegetable) amongst them, they fought for it like hungry dogs, and one of them bit another by the shoulder in a dreadful manner. Saturday evening, two very athletic . men, supposed to be navigatort, honoured Spring with a call at his tavern, the' Bnoth4sall, Hereford, and ordered supper ; they were very civilly desired to walk into a room, and their wishes shouldbe complied with ; but they assumed airs of importance ill according with their appearance, desired a private mom up stairs, and when refused, on account of their behaviour, soon shewed that they wanted to try if the Champion's science and courage had grown rusty, in the peaceful occupation which he followed, rather than to partake of the good things his house af forded. After abusing him for some time, which he bore with admirable patience, they proceeded to threaten a « sound thrashing ; ' and at length, to preserve peace in his domicile, Spring took one of them by the arm, and led him to the door, which office the fellow repaid with a smasher in the face—this was of course an aw kwat d appeal to manhood—and in a little more than a minute, the aggressor received such speciniens of the Champion's peculiar talent for returning favours of the kind with liberal interest,' that he lay senseless on the ground ; his companion hastened to hit assistance, and, after suiking die Chatispi l on ‘ 'drew von the same punishment, and with his tairdrade, COnteot to lie prostrate and cry for mercy. POLICE INTELLIGENCE: —war BOWSTRERT. Boater R 011211115 ON LORD bIRTOR'N Day.—ln consequence of its being exceedingly fine yesterday, the multitudes who congre gated in various parts of the metropolis through which the civic procession passed, were immense, and upon no former occasion were there more audacious robbeiies committed by organized gangs of well dressed thieves who took advantage of the denseness of the crowd to rob with impunity. Mr. Richard Morley, who resides at NO.IB, Wood-street, Cheap. side, came to this office about two o'clock yesterday afternoon, and gave information, that as he was passing through Wellington-street, Strand, on his way to Waterloo Bridge, he was beset by a gang of thieves, and on his arrival at the Bridge gate, the gang surrounded him, and hi pn instant his pockets were rifled, and he was robbed of a gold watch, seals ' chain, etc. and fifteen sovereigns. He des cribed the robbers to be men of respectable appearance, and so well dressed, that he had no suspicion they were robbers till be was hustled by them. When he found that he had been plundered, he looked round for the thieves, and they had vanished amongst the crowd. Scarcely had the above Gentleman left the Office. before Mr. Joseph Snow, of No. 4, Lincoln's Inn-fields, the Secretary to the Literary Fund Institution, came into the Office almost out of breath, to give information of a daring robbery committed upon his person a few minutes before, at Temple-bar. Mr. Snow's state ment was, that he had been to Drummond's Bank, and had there received, in five and ten pound Bank of England notes, the sum of one hundred and forty pounds, which he deposited in his small clothes pocket. On leaving the Bank he walked towards the City; on the way he observed a man, whose person he particularly re marked, walking before him ; he sometimes walked fast to get be fore the man, but still the nun kept ahead of him. He thought it strange, but at the same time thought it was merely accidental. On arriving at Temple.bar, the man passed under the narrow archway, the footpath on the right hand side of the street, and Mr. Snow' , followed. The man, before be bad quite passed through the arch. way, turned round, and in an under tone of voice, as if speak ing to himself, said (sufficiently loud to be heard by Mr. Snow), " which way shall I go ?" and then looking Mr. Snow in the face in a most impudent manner, rushed against him.— In an instant, Mr. Snow was surrounded by a gang of seven or eight men, who hustled him, and it struck him, at the moment, it was an organised gang of thieves, who, probably, watched him from the Bank. He put his hand almost instinctively to his small clothes pocket, and found that the Bank notes were gone. The audacious boldness of the villains, for several seconds, quite ap palled him; he was struck motionless, and had not presence of mind to seize hold of any one of them; and they all escaped in dif ferent directions. The numbers of the notes being known, the officers received instructions to do all in their power to dis cover the robbers. A man, named Jrona, was brought before the Magistrates of. this office, on Wednesday night, charged with stealing a cloak from the shop door of Mr. Rumble, in Cranbourne-street, Leicester. square, that evening. The wife had been committed to New gate that morning, for stealing a handkerchief in the shop of Mr. Ma ther, in New-street, Covent-Garden (as stated in yesterday's SrAs), and upon the clearest evidence, he was sent to the same place, at night, to await his trial. HATTON-GARDEN. Thomas Davies, a watchman in Lamb's Conduit•street, was charged with picking a Gentleman's pocket of a silk handkerchief, at the watchhouse door, while a prisoner was being taken in. One James Oderton saw the fact, and seized the watch maws band with the article in it. A host of watchmen were in attendance, who made a great noise, but could not disprove the charge.—R emanded. Jain Haps, a hale old man, was charged with begging in Gower street, Bedford-square, by the Secretary of the Mendicity Society, who stated that the prisoner had been supported by its funds for nearly a year, in 1825, while his claim to an estate was under in vestigation. After spending £4O in law, it turned out the pri soner himself had irrecoverably mortgage d estate, and that he was a common swindler who, under the name of Walker, had duped several Country B anks.—Committed for 14 days. MARY-LA-BONNE. James Williams and links Washla, were charged with stealing a coachman's great coat, out of the area, at the Marchioness of Corn wallies, in Wimpole-street. A young man, thinking the prisoners looked suspicious fellows, watched them till he saw them commit this robbery. Williams pulled off his coat, gate it to Minshull, ran down the area, and fitting himself with the coachman's, returned in a minute. The property was identified, and the prisoners committed. QUEEN-SQUARE. IBM and Wis. Dickenson were charged with burgbrioudy enter ing the house of Mr. Robinson, at Battersea-rise, and stealing a basket of clothes, some valuable books, and other articles. The family was in the country, and the female ser►ant discovered in the morning the house had been entered by cutting a shutter. Two lawn handkerchiefs, part of the stolen property, were found in the prisoner's lodging, and several persons swore to seeing them in possession of the basket of clothes.—Committed. WOl Byers again appeared as an informer, enforcing the law, respecting the painting of names, &c. on stage coaches. An information had been filed against Mr. Garland, a coach owner, which Byers now wished to withdraw. As this would open a door to a compromise, or to laying a new information for the same offence, the Magistrate insisted the case should be pursued. Na witnesses, however, ap peared, and the information was dismissed. An information against Messrs. Barber and Baker, owners of Hackney stages, for not having " London" painted on one .f their coaches, on the 49th of September, was next called. Byers's witness swore, he did not see the word upon the coach at eleven in the day ; while a Mr. Lam bert made oath, that he painted " London" and " Hackney" on each door before eight o'clock in the morning of that day. The Magistrate believed the latter, and dismissed the case. A charge against the same parties, for not having the Christian and Surname on the doors, was dismissed from the same cause, a few days ago. L AM BETH-STREET. Mr. Heiks, a stationer, residing in Whitechapel, was charged with assaulting a Mr. Le wis. A friend of the complainant had let off a squib in the Whitec hape Road, and was immediately taken by a patrol to the watchbouse. Mr. Lewis was waiting at-the door, with some friends, to ascertain what would become of their companion, when the defendant, a headborough, came out, and ordered all the persons to " move on." Mr. Lewis explained that he was waiting about his friend, and that he thought he had a right to remain. Balks replied, he would knock him down if he did not move on, and the complainant daring him to do so, the former kept his word, and struck him repeatedly afterwards. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Mr. HARDWICK thanght with the complainant that he had a right to remain, and lined Mr. Holies Ins. for his rnisc,onduct. The Swedish Greek Committee have sent an additional remittance of ten thousand francs to the Committee formed at Paris. _ _ ----- Thursday night the Pilot coach, on its way to Leeds, was accidentally overturned, about one mile on the other side of Harewood Bridge. The offside wheel-horse was killed upon the spot, and the passengers, four in num ber, were slightly injured. One Lady was cut in the face with the broken glass, and so much alarmed as to return in a chaise to Spofforth, whence she bad come. The coachman is severely bruised in the left hand and ancle; the guard is also severely cut in the face. Henry Sleeper, the son of a poor washer-woman, in Smith-street, Westminster, was yesterday met by a fel low, who persuaded him to go into a shop fer him, and ' he would give him something for his trouble, and would take care of his bundle. The boy foolishly consented; and on his return was awoke by finding the villain had decamped with his bundle. A press was first introduced into Constantinople in the reign of Ammar the Third, in 1707; but in the interval of time which has elapsed, the copies of few works of distinction and name have been multiplied by it. This is owing, according to the opinion of Sir W. Jousts, to the difficulty of understanding the classical writings of the Turks, without more than a moderate knowledge of Persian and Arabic. Manuscript volumes also are preferred to printed works. The French were accustomed to send tr . ) them books published in Oriental types, but only a small number was purchased. Characters formed in writing are considered as more pleasing to the eye, and as capable of being connected and combined in a more beautiful manner than in printing. There are, it may be added, many hundred scribes and copyists. who would lose their ordinary means of support if books could be circulated at a cheap rate by the press, and this has been said to have been the reason of the Turkish Government for discouraging printing.

The Branch Bank of England opened at Swansea on Monday, and commenced business. The notes are in every respect the same as the parent establishment, et cept being dated at Swansea, and made payable there and in London. Notes will not be issued above 5004 nor less than 51. each. Yesterday, about two o'clock, on the arrival of the Lord Mayor's Procession at Westminster Hall, crowds of persons perched themselves on every practicable elc. vation, and, among the rest, on a paling immedlately adjoining Old Palace-yard, which, unfortunately, gave way, and precipitated forty or fifty persons into the bisect and area, sever al of whom were severely hurt. Tuesday, a young son of Neptune, named Schee% was paid off from a ship at Chatham, and as he bad never been in London, was determined to have a crui-e to that place. He travelled on foot as far as Dartfoid, when finding himself tired, he hailed a return chaise, and was safely landed at the foot of Westminster Bridge. In the evening he and the post-boy regaled themselves, till Jack got a little groggy. He then steered his course towards Westminster Abbey, where he fell in with a Lady, who kindly offered him a lodging for the night, which offer was accepted, and Jack soon found himself (as he thought) safely moored in a snug liar bour. The place where Jack was anchored, happened to belong to one Mrs. Cummins, in the Almonry, and on turning out in the morning be found his pilot had sheered off, and himself minus 71. 185.61 Atoms Minasats.-*-A huge seal was caught last week, in the Union Canal, at the third drawbridge from Port Hepetoun. On opening the stomach of the animal, it was found to be filled with trout (which are very abundant in the Canal) and enormous eels. How it rt into the Canal is a curious question. The only way we can account for its appearance is, that it had got into the Forth and Clyde Canal, from one of the tw.) Friths, at Grangemouth or Bowling Bay, and thence found its way into the Union Canal.—Edit. (Aron. CLIIIIICAL PUNNING.—On the day previous to a very recent ordination, the coach did not arrive till half an hour after the usual time. In the coach, however, were two very important articles, one in the shape of a Deacon (who ought to have made his appearance long be fore), and a fish, for the Bishop's ordination dinner. The young Clergyman received a very severe reprimand, and his Lordship made a gracious apology for the de lay of his dinner. Upon which the tardy candidate remarked with the utmost gravity, that both himself and the fish had come in time to get into hot crater. Sir William Daws, Archbishop of York, was very fond of a pun: His Clergy dining with him, for the first time after he had lost his Lady, he told them he feared they did not find things in so good order as they used to be in the time of poor Mary ; and looking ex tremely sorrowful, added, with a deep sigh, " she was, indeed, Mare Pacifieum 1" A Curate, who pretty well knew what she had been, called out, " Ave, my Lord, but sbe was Mare Mortals»: first." Sir William gave him a living of 200/. per annum shortly afterwards. The monument erected to M. MALLSHIMBES, in . the great ball of the Palace de la Justice, in Paris, is now completely uncovered.
