~ ~~1 vs i Q, ' I that the negroes were than the English ; and purely African, and they as a grievous sin. But for among the negro females open profligacy which disgusts es at noon day in the streets of a large English town, would shame a negro under the veil of midnight. In fact, the negro girls never take the slightest notice of a man as he passes them, and are very modest in .their dadeanour. All negro women wear necklaces and bracelets of red, white, or blue, though few of them wear either stockings or shoes. The men wear rings of gold or steel. Their language. as you may have al ready perceived, is a mixture of broken English and African. They usually omit the letter s, and sometimes put another letter for it—i. e. they say " tails" for stairs, or 4, chewed beef" for stewed beef, and the like. They universally call white persons " buckra," and children "pickaninnies," and instead of the posses.ive case use the dative or ablative, &c. They will say" Juli Massa, all dem for you pickaninnies ?" which means, Ah ! Sir, are all those your children?'" They use the •erb 4, to do," for to be." They would say him do coming," for he is coming; and him do kickaraboo," for be is vtying. Both men and women, but I think the latter in particular, have a very disagreeable smell when at all warmed by exertion. A room which a girl has been sweeping, is scarcely tolerable for ten minutes after. Most of them, however, wash once a day in a river, if there be one near. You must never suppose that the words wife and husband imply a marriage in this country. Tey do not, unless the term married," be added. The negross prefer carrying weights, light or heavy, on their heads ; and they are extremely expel tin so doing. I have seen a aegro girl carrying a small bottle on her head with the cork pointing to the sky, and walking and chattering with another girl, as if unconscious that the bottle was there. Indeed, they tell a story of a negro, who was told to wheel some rubbish in a wheelbarrow, taking off the wheel, and carrying the barrow and rubbish on his head. The negro girls do nut wear bonnets, but tie handkerchiefs on their beads, in the same way as the itinerant female musicians in the streets of London.

The Edinburgh Courant contains the following letter from Dr. Richardson to Dr. Graham, Professor of Botany, accompanying 27 packages of seeds, many of them new species, and several packages suspected to be long to new genera. " Fort Franklin, Great Bear Lake, Nov. ISIS. " We had a quick passage from Liverpool to New York, and from thence we have journeyed with little rest and much expedition to this quarter. Captain Franklin reached the Arctic Sea exactly six months from the day he sailed from England, and j have been nearly within sight of the Capper Mountains, a distance which we , attained in the last journey only in the third summer. Having been so fortunate as to effect so much in one season, and with our sea stores unimpaired, our prospects art nattering, and we, hope, in the course of next summer, to make the world acquainted with a larger portion of the northern shores of this continent than they at present know. We have travelled, however, too quickly for the purposes of natural history, and since we have entered the line of country we formerly travelled through, I have not added more than fifty species of plants to my list. Drummond (late of Forfar), who is in a more fertiltcourstry, will, I hope, produce a pretty complete Barra of that gustier. He is most zealous, and for two summers will direct his attention solely to that end. Although this season ' ,pas been remarkably line, and the fall unusually late, vegetation ceased with as in the end of August, and we have still eight months of winter to come. In the remaining two mouths of the year all ,our collections must be made." We have been favoured with the sight of a letter, dated Fort Franklin, February last, from Dr. RICHARD arm to a friend, being nearly four months later than the above, and of which the following is an extract : " Fort Franklin, Great Bear Lake, Feb. 1826. " After remaining as long at New York, as our desire to commence our journey would permit, we proceeded W Lake Ontario, crossed it to York, the capital of Upper Canada, and from thence travelled by land and water, in. carts and in boats, to Penetanguishene, a naval depot in Lake Huron--here we embarked in two canoes, ■tanned by 24 Canadian voyageurs; our party previously consisting off ve officers and four latrines; and, coasting Lakes Huron and Superior, arrived at Fort W illiam, a post belonging to the Hudson Bay Company, on the 10 , 11 of May, 1825. At this place the expedition embarked in four small canoes adapted for the navigation of small rivers, and proceeding in two divisions by the Lake of the Woods, Rainy Lake, Lake Winifrey, and the River Saskatchew, came to Cumberland House, where the seamen attached to it, and who had been sent out with three boats, passed the winter. We arrived at Cumberland House on the 15th of June, twelve days after our seamen had resumed their voyage for this summer, and losing no time in following them, we overtook them on the 291 of the same month, near the height of land which separates the rivers flowing towards Hudson's Bay, from those which fall into the Arctic Sea ; our progress after this was more slow, from the accumulation of our stores and provisions, which we had been picking up at the different trading posts on our route; the different portages detained us consi derably, as the crews had to make five or six, and when the boats were carried seven or eight trips across. blethy, the longest portage on the route, is about 13 miles statute, in length, and occupied us seven days. We arrived at the Like of the Hills on the 15th July, at Slave Lake on the 26th, and entered Mackenzie's River on the 31st. On the 3d of August we arrived at Fort Simpson, situated at the junction of the River of the Mountains with the Mackenzie. Un the 6th came to Fort Norman, another of the Company's posts, situate on the Mackenzie about 200 miles further down; on the 7th en t ered Bear Lake River, and on the 10th arrived at this place, which we have since named after our Commanding Officer : Mr. Back arrived next day with the detachment of canoes under his charge, Captain Franklin and Mr. Kendall having descended the river to the sea in a boat with six seamen and an Esquimau' interpreter. They came to the mouth of the river six dirt after leaving Fort Norman, having passed the last of the Company's posts about half way. From Garry's Island lying twenty-eight or thirty miles to seaward of the river's mouth, they had a wide prospect of salt water free from ice, and abounding in seals and white whales. This was a cheering prospect : after remaining a day on the island to ascertain by astronomical obser vation its position, and which ther found to be lat. 69 deg. 29 min. north, long. 135 deg. 41 min. west, they reascended the river and joined us here on the 6th of September. The expedition up to this latter date, had travelled from New York five thousand one hunched and sixty miles, or from Penetanguishene, the outpost of Canadian settlements, about four thousand four hun dred and forty-four miles from the 23d of April. " Captain Franklin was very desirous of opening a communication with the Esquimau: at the mouth of, Mackenzie's River, but did not see any of them. He left, however, presents of iron work at several encamp ments, which Appeared to he of recent erection, nnd we have the satisfaction since the commencement of winter of learnin i through the medium of an adjoining tribe, that they neceived them, and are desirous of evincing their gratitude by receiving us kindly next season." A Flanders mail bas brought us Hamburg]) Pipers to the 4th inst. and accounts from St. Petersburgh to the Bth September. The differences with Persia are not even alluded to in these Papers.

His Majesty the Emperor has addressed an Ukase to the Senate, announcing that he has thought fit to create a ministerial department for the management of all affairs of the Court, with those of the department of the Appanages and the Cabinet, under the title of Ministry of the Imperial Court. Prince Wolchensky is appointed Minister of the Imperial Court, and his Majesty has signed an Ordonnance for this new department, by which the Minister is declared the head of all the de pendencies of the Court, and of the direction of the Theatres, and at the same time Minister of the Ap panages, and Director of the Cabinet. He is immediately under the Emperor, to shorn alone he owes an account of his administration: no other department has a right to require an account of him, or to give him any orders on the subject of his administration. The Ladies of General Oppermann, and of General Sakremky, Governor of Finnland, have received the little Cross of the Order of St. Catherine. The extra post which had been established between St. Peters burgh and Taganrog, is suppressed by his Majesty's orders. stad.—The Grand Duke Constantine passed on the 7th through Orcha, on his way to Warsaw. His Imperial Highness was in perfect health—The differences with Persia are not mentioned, or even alluded tib,in those Papers. MOSCOW, &mama 17. On the 14th, there was a grand Court masquerade at the Petrowsky theatre, which was honoured with the presence of their Majesties the Emperor and Empress, the Grand Duke Michiel, and the Grand Duchess Helena, and of Prince Charles of Prussia. Their Ma -1 j . esttes, who were impatiently expected, entered the theatre at half-past eight, and remained till eleven, having supped in one of the saloons. Nothing can be imagined more brilliant than this fete, at which there were above five thousand persons of the Nobility and the principal Merchants of the Empire, many of whom bad come from the most distant Provinces, to enjoy, on this memorable occasion, the pleasure of seeing the Emperor and all his august family. The rich national costume of the Ladies, the splendid embroidery of their head dresses, their fine pearl necklaces, and veils em broidered with gold, contrasted with the military and civil uniforms, with large cloaks thrown over them, gave an air of originality to this fete, which seemed to unite the beauty and magnificence of Europe and Asia. On the 15th, at eight in the morning, there was a grand review in the plain of Ohodyne, of the detach.;l ment of the guard of Moscow and the lit division of; Grenadiers. The Emperor was present at this review, .0 well as their Majesties the Empresses. At four o'clock, there W 23 a splendid entertainment given by the mer- chants of Moscow to all the Utenerals, the Officers of the Guard, and superior Officers of the army. His Majesty was pleased to be present at thisentertainment, to which the foreign Ambassadors and Ministers of the Diplomatic Body were also invited. STOCKHOLM, Suva's= tit. It is now known that the wife of Captain V. Rei chenbach, owner of the estate of Sagtorp, gave or ders during his absence to burn the bush wood on the estate, for the purpose of obtaining land for corn, and the operation having been carelessly performed ) caused the great tires in the woods in our neighbour hood, which even threatened the capital itself. Lieu• tenant Von Pettersens, proprietor of Estavih. has brought an action against Captain V. Reichenbach and his wife, and they have been condemned to pay 31,290 rix dollars banco damages, and also to make good to the treasury the expense of sending and maintaining troops to extinguish the fire: all their property is se questrated by way of security for the payment. HANOVER, &minas 30. The Duke and Duchess of Cambride have returned from Berlin, by way of Brunswick. COPENHAGEN, SIITIUSIR 26. As a proof of the extent to which the trade in bones is carried on in Denmark, it is stated by one of our Journals that Mr. Bern, a merchant at Corsoer, had in the years 1824, 1825, and 1826, sent away SO cargoes. It is Armed that this trade in bones annually into the kingdom, is from 150,000 to 200,000 rix dollars. We have also rece ived Papers to the 7th inst. from which we quote the following : HAARLEM. (krona 6. Accounts from Batavia of 19th June, announce that a detachment of the Netherland troops, commanded by, Colonel Cochins, had proceeded by Djocjocarta to the Kraton Pleret, in which the insurgents had fortified themselves, and where, on a former occasion, it had not been thought advisable to attack them. It was, how ever, taken on the 9th of 'June. Thh Netherland troops consisted of two columns of infantry, under Major Elout and La Bron, a division of cavalry, one of artil lery, a reserve under Captain Koelman, and about 3,000 natives from the surrounding Dessas. All the approiches to the Kraton having been occupied, an attempt was made to blow up the walls, which having succeeded, the scaling ladders were employed; and, after a long en gagement, our troops made themselves Masters of the tort. Our loss consisted of eight killed, among whom was Lieutenant Krustenburg, and forty-six wounded. The loss of the enemy was not less than 400 killed, a number of wounded, 40 prisoners, several standards, and some cannon. Both the Netherland and Javanese troops deserve the greatest praise for their behaviour on the occasion. Accounts from Groningen, of the 2d October, say, that though the number of deaths have decteased, that of the sick continues to increase. In Friesland the dis order was still unabated. In the Lemmer, &c. not one houNe was free. It is calculated that ten times as many persbns die as in ordinary times. We have received Quebec Papers to the 4th Setember, from which we make the following extracts : " The present depressed and lamentable condition of the Irish poor in this city, is deserving of our most serious consideration ; the evil instead of diminishing is rapidly increasing; and which, if suf. tired to extend beyond certain limits, the consequence may prove too fatal. Almost every vessel arriving in our port from Ireland, lands an impoverished and starving population, the necessary consequence is, that they wander about our wens miserable spectacles of dis ease, misery, and want. Those whose means are adequate to the expense, proceed to the United States, leaving their less fortunate compinions to shift for themselves." CITY, TWO O'CLOCK. Consols have remained steady the whole of the morning, with a fluctuation of about i per Cent. and the speculations have not been of any importance. Consols, which were in the early part of the day at 8011 for the Account, have since been done at 801 1 to and for November Account at 801 buyers. The Minister of Marine in the Netherlands has given notice, that from the Ist January, 1827, the Port of Curacna will be opened to Merchant ships of all na tions, and that no export or import duties will be taken on merchan dize, or tonnage demanded. In the foreign market the chief doing was In Mytican Bonds.— In all other foreign Securities and Shares nothing transacting. BIRMINGHAM MUSIC MEETING.—The performance on Friday consisted of a Grand Miscellaneous Selection of Sacred Music.' The audience again filled the Church to an overflow in all parts.

LAMITON, Esq. accompanied by Ludy LOUISA LAKIITON, Dr. Pamir (the domestic Physician), and a numerous suite, left Paris, for Naples last Wednesday week. The account of the Thelluson property, which has been copied from a Worcester journal into several of the London papers, is extremely incorrect. The fact is, that Mr. Thelluson, who died in 1797, left his property to accumulate till such time as all the males of his fa mily, who were living at the time of his death, or should be born within due time afterwards, should be dead; and that it was then to be divided into three equal parts, to be shared between the three eldest male lineal descendants of each of his three sons, Peter, George, and Charles. George, the second son, died without ,male issue ; and it was decided in the House of Lords, in the year 1824, that a person cannot have a male lineal descendant through a female. Consequently this vast property remains to be divided between the eldest son of Loid Rendlesham, and the eldest son of Mr. Charles Thelluson (who is now residing at Brighton), in case they should survive Lord Rendlesham, Mr. Charles Thelluson, and William and Frederick, brothers of Lord Rendlesham, twins, born within nine months after the death of the testator. Mr. Arthur Thelluson, whose lady, a daughter of Sir Bethel Codrington, was lately confined, is the youngest son of the late Lord Rendlesham, and mi;ht inherit himself, if his three brothers should die without sons. A person who keeps a small shop near the vicarage, in Ormskirk, was summoned before the vicar, and, on _ . .

The shameful system of intimidation, we are sorry to say, has been revived in a cotton-mill in the Gothals, but we do not find that it has extended farthet, and trust it will not. Tuesday night a number of spinners who had struck, in consequence of some dig pute with the proprietor, attacked a party of the new hands on their leaving their work, and disturbed the whole neighbourhood by their cries and the throwing of stones. Two boys, Graham and Nally, the former the son of the man who Was wounded in the back last year with a shot by Kean, were obliged to take refuge in Sheriff Moir's premises.—Wednewlay night the same violence was tesoned to in a less degree; but last night the new wotlers, or Robs, as they are called, having get armed, and being much pressed by their pursuers, they fired two shot., but without hurting any person, the one bullet having dropped from the pistol-mouth from the deficiency of powder, and the other going through a shop window and striking a wall. These proceedings must instantly be put a stop to. We are extremely early to learn, from a respectable correspond ent, that an organised system of combination has been esta►fished among the sailors at Greenock. A vessel which reached Greenock from Glasgow on Sunday evening, bound to the Mediterranean, and another which dropped down on Wednesday, were both of them boarded by strong parties of combined seamen, who inquired into the terms upon which the seamen sailed, and finding them lower than what they prescribed, they would not allow them to sail. There are no soldiers, we believe, quartered in Greenock at presenr, but a few hours can carry a sufficient number from our garrison to put down all opposition to the laws; and there are two brigs of war on the station, which will instantly support those seamen who wish o work for their bread. The Duke of CLARENCE returned to his residence at Busby, on Thursday, from a visit to the Kira, at the Royal Lodge in Windsor Park. The Duke and Duchess of CLARENCE left their rest. dence at Bushy, about eleven o'clock on Saturday morning. in their carriage and four, and paid a visit to the Duchess of Kaws, at her apartments in the King's Palace at Kensington, where the Duchess of Cukezece alighted on a visit to her Royal relative.

Several of the columns which formed part of the Elgin Marbles, and which, from their enormous size, could not be advan tageously exhibited, and from their want of ornament would have excited little attention, have been moved from the British Museum to the border of the Lake, at Virginia Water. Eight of these fragments of antiquity, are so enormous, that one column required the force of fourteen horses to convey it to its destination. French Papers to the 7th, and the Et.ile of Saturday, have been received. They now state, on the authority of letters from Vienna, that instead of haviug taken the oath to the Portuguese Charter, as it had been reported, the Infant Don Miguel had eluded the act, by telling his sister that he bad addressed his brother Don Pedro in a direct manner with regard to his personal• claims to the Regency during the prolonged absence or mino rity of the Sovereign, and that he should wait before he adopted any decided step till he should know his bro ther's intentioas. He also said that he was anxious to consult with his great protector, the Emperor of Austria, by whose advice he should be guided, and whose absence occasioned unavoidable delay. As ell the Coons of the Continent have acknowledged the Constitution and Regency of Portugal, the Emperor of Austria will probably not venture to give any other advice to the Royal Infant than that of instant sub mission. It is the only course which can befit him as a man of sense and a patriot, both of which it is to be hoped he has by this time become. The Moniteur publishes the Treaty of amity, naviga tion, and commerce, concluded between France and the Emperor of Brazil, and signed at Rio de Janeiro on the 18th of January, 1526. It also gives an Ordonnance issued by the King on the 4th inst. to carry that Treaty into full effect. The first article places Brazilian ves sels, in the ports of France, on the same footing with respect to the payment of dues and the performance of quarantine as French ships. The second makes the produce of the soil and industry of Brazil, when im ported into France in Brazilian ships, pay no higher duties than when brought in Brazilian vessels. The third directs, that all vessels shall be considered Bra zilian, when belonging to Biazilian owners, and cow manded by a native, whatever be th e country of the rest of the crew. The other articles merely reduce the existing duties on Brazilian cottons of different kinds. Several individuals who bad publicly sold portraits of Young l'Ia• poleon at Lille, have been tried and condemned, some to ten and .ome to fifteen days' imprisonment, together with lines of from 3 0 to 30 francs. There is no intelligence whatever front the Mona hoe Papers, nor from any part of Greece.
