It was a Mae Mall, mounted with the eons) appendages of picker, spoon, brash, &c. slid surmounted with a very fine Cairogornm stone. — One thing, however, was wanted to render it complete —as inscription; and the purchaser not having wit ?Bough to tarnish one, applied to the Edinburgh silversmith for the rrquifits addition. The waggish silversmith, after declining the leek as long as be de cently could, though meditating all the while on an inscription that tuight he applicable to the purposes of the iutecded donor, es well as of the boa, informed his enquirer that he could not suggest any suitable motto but me, and that hal a local and not delicate allusion.

We cannot gratify the wish of our Correspond ent, except by the insertion of the article itself ; we therefore subjoin it : FROM TOR moments CIRRONICLI, MONDAY, SIFT. Iff. " It is a proverb frequently on the tongues of politi- cians, that a man should live with his friends as though they might one day become his enemies; and with his enemies, as though the time might arrive when they would becomehis friends. Political friendship+, indeed, seem to be lie different from all others, that the rides which might be laid down and followed with respect to them, would not be consistent with the onions of douses tie life; nay, on theeontrary, would totally destroy them. We add rows this to a quarter where advice has been throw* away! We think that the exposition which will shortly take place respecting the extraordinaryeirvumstanees which led to the appointment of a certain person to a foreign mission will do more to open the eyes of the public, than as y thing which ban happened In our time!

A great canceling of labourers and others broke in pieces and destroyed a threshing machine at Attleburgh, on Wednesday last; and, on Thursday, a number assembled in the street opposite the premises of Mrs. Pilgrim. of Winfarthiug, and although the peaco-officers most earnestly intrusted them to desist, and !pointed ons to them the illegality and danger of such proceedings, and ►ow determined the Magistrates were to put the law in force in all its rigour against offenders, they Immediately proceeded to invest the premises, and having taken up the outward parts of a threshing mac►ine there at work. the property of Ro bert Copp's& of Dies, mounted it on its carriage, drew it away with shouts of triumph, and plunged it into a large pit. in the parish of Sueltanger, leaving it sank in fourteen feet water. where it still remains.—(ilury Gdzette.)

The following aro pattieolaro of the occurrencee I w►ich took place at the (hand Synagogue, on Toes day and yeeterday : The W►ite Fast is one of the strictest *Hods among the Jews. On repairing to the Synagogue, those whe are particularly rigid in the observance of the Jewish rites wear the shrouds in which they iotend to be belied. As soon as the stars appear, or the ever; ing closer In, the Hymn of Death is repeated three times over in a loud voice by the whole congregation ; the High Priest repeating it first. On Tuesday evening the service commenced at six o'clock, and ended at balf•pest ten. The following morning it re-cum emoted, at six o'clock, and ended in the evening, at half-past six. When it was dark, the Hebrews pro ceeded to break their fast; for, during these twenty four hours, they partook of no food, either wet or dr►. The synagogue, in Doke•street, Aldgate, was coup pletely crowded, at ao early hear, and the congrega tion consisted of nearly 3,000 respectahle and well dressed persons, male and female, who conducted themselves on that solemn occarion, with great deers. dos towards their creator, and with due respect to their High Priest, the Rev.

The Missionaries of France bad announced that the procession of the relics of the Cross should be followed by the re-establishment of the Brotherhood of the Cross, erected August 39, 1613. The brotherhood was dispersed at the recent epoch when the hermits of Cal vary were torn from their asylum, when the sacred Yes s• Is s ere broken, and the pilgrims massacred, and the sacred place of the Cross was converted into a kin:rime fur amusement. On Thursday this spot, restored by the piety of the Monarch to its venerable and primitive de stination, displayed a religious spectacle of great in• terest. The Archbishop of Arles, surrounded by several Bi shops, thirty Cure, and two hundred ecclesiastics. solemn ly officiated : the altar, 40 feet high, surrounded by large barks, occupied by the Clergy, was entirely covered with gerlands of flowers; it rose like a bill above a- multi multitude of more than 60,000 people who crowded round it. Prom 700 to 800 soldiers, many officers, ma• gistratee, and persons in the first ranks of society, were present. Le Chant des Castigates rose tint to Heaven. M. I;Abbe de Forbin Janson pronounced a moving dis course on the Cross; he then explained to the nnnierous auditors the motives for assembling, and the statutes of the Brotherhood of the Cross. The King, at the request of the Missionaries, has granted duos. usisithe A►fee, will the ruins, and they have not retreated from the grand work of again restoring them to splendour.—Dowsilarsa isrovidebit Faithful Worshippers of the Cross! you are come here to ac complish the views of Providence. Seven thousand Christians immediately precipitated themsel►es at the foot of the Cron, and were inscribed in the Bro therhood amidst cries of " Vine la Croix !" " Vines: les Bourbons!" Tears were abundantly shed. The procession commenced, attended by affecting music, and accompanied by pious songs ; it passed over a road strewed with flowers, through triumphal arches prepared by the faithtul, as in the days of the primitive church. The labanum, or Bandar.! of the Cross, was carried by veterans, who, cowered with glory, came today to offer sacrifices to the glory of the God of Peace. The benediction of the Cross terminated the day. Flippy are the days which unite more than 60,000 souls iu the same thought—that of doing good !—(Journal des Debate) SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE.

THE DUKE OF DEVONSHI:cE. --...-- COON, SCIPTIDIRER 20.—During yesterday there was considerable anxiety evinced by r large po . flion of the population of this city, foi the arrival of this illoatrions IVoblernani Who hail left all the attractions of England to visit this country, in order to continue, upon an ex tended scale, those acts of munificence and kindness he has so liberally afforded to his numerous tenantry.

About half an hour after his Grace's arrival, a Depu tation from the Corporation proceeded to the Hotel, in order to carry into effect the resolotion of presenting his Orace • ith the freedom of the eity of Cork; upon the Deputation being introduced to the Doke, he received them in the most dignified and courteous manner. The Recorder then addressed his Orate in an elegant and appropriate speech, stating, " that the Corporation of Cork, anxious to enrol his Orace amthipt the freemen , of this ancient city, had waited upon him to confer that compliment, to which his °race's Virtues bad so justly entitled him." To which the Dnke replied, that " he felt most seu.i. My the compliment conferred, and' that ha should esti• mate it highly, and always evince his anxiety for the welfare of the City of Vork, and the happiness of Ire• land in g 1." The Deptitation rem-fitted a considerable time, daring which, we understood his (}race to have twilight inform ation on various subjects connected with the improve ments and interests of this City. VINEIR TO THE HUHN AT THE NAHUOM•IIOI.73Z. The Corporation, anxious, upon this occasiod to evince the most generous hospitality, which was se conded by every effort on the part of our Chief Magittrate, considerable preparations had been commenced some days since for the entertainment to he given so his Grace.

On the cloth being removed, the usual toasts having been given, The Mayor then rose and proposed the health of "Our brother Freeman, his Grace the Duke of Devon shire, and the Noble House of Cavendish." Which was received with the most distinguished marks of respect.

The wince were in &bond ante, and of the choicest descriptions—and it may with justice be said, that no preceding Corporation ep tertaioment at the Mansion-house could have afforded more general satisfaction.
