'fhe sides of the deepest were rather steep. We easily agreed in opinion that they might be the remains Of ancient craters, and our guide confirmed that conjecture. Thus then, we concluded that we were viewing his torical monuments of almost all the eruptions which bad happened in the past century, but we soon began to doubt the correctness of that opinion, on observing the sarteof the crater, which was then in operation. This was father an irregular fissure of small extent, from two or three feet broad, out of which arose vapour. The smoke, however, was so inconsiderable, that it did not hinder us from bending over the opening, to look down into it, and from observing some flame at a considerable depth. But our guide ventured not to give us Mat permission before be had tied a cord about our breasts, by means of which he might be able to draw us hack if we should chance to fall. Besides the principal crater, we observed across the edge of the plain some fissures of considerable length, but only from one inch to two in breadth, out of w hi c h sulphureous exhalations arose continually, by which the margin of the fissures were painted with all the colours between yellow and red in the finest shades. Their aspect affectrd the eye in a very pleasing manner, especially because these long streaks fOrmed an agreeable contrast upon the dark brown colour of the burned matter. Towards the end of the same year an eruption took place ; but aw I had imbibed the opinion that the surface of thumper plain would have undergone little change, I made no haste to renew my visit, and postponed it from day to day. In the month of August, 1814, however, I was imluced to do it by some friends. How was I sur prised oa observing the changes the summit of the moun tain had undergone? Nothing remained of the plain but the external edge. The plain itself had disappeared, and .11e site was occnpied by some irregular valleys and craggy rocks of volcanic formation. The valleys were at least a hatudred and fifty feet depressed under the edge of the summit, and the rocks elevates! about fifty feet above them. The internal descent of the edge was in most places very steep and almost inaccessible, and in these were visible the original reeks of which the body of the volcano is composed. Not perfectly in the centre of the circle formed by the edge, but a little towards the south-east side of the same, was placed the new crater. It was a hole in the rock, about ten feet broad and almost circular, out of which arose a column of fire of the same width, but at least twenty feet high. I t offered the most imposing aspect I ever saw ; the flames dissipated in the air, and dispersed round about a shower of red-hot cinders, which, however, hindered us not from approaching pretty near to the crater, because their very uneven surface prevented their sticking to the body. On observing the edge I found like wise some fissures in it, but was not able to observe the least exhalation arising from them, nor was their margin in the least tinted by any colour. I was therefore induced to conclude that this phenomenon, which I had observed on the first visit, was the effixt of the crater being obstructed at that time. The important changes whit]) the mountain had under gone between my two first visits, and being desirous to know what other changes might take place without an eruption, induced me to renew my visit in the month of April, 1815. I then found that the column of fire observed the last year was no longer visible; for the ashes and burned matter which were continually brought out of the bowels of the volcano by the flames, had amassed about them to the height of at least twenty-five feet, and formed a per fectly conical hill in the midst of craggy rocks. At the summit of the hill was the crater, out of which from time to time some flames appeared. Though the matter of which the hill was composed has in itself but little cohesion, it had been cemented by the heat, and upon trial we found that it did not yield to the weight of a man. Therefore we climbed up to the crater, and found that the margin of it was very thin. Fearing that it might not be able to sus tain our weight, we stopped at the distance of four feet from the top, and one of our company extending his right hand brought it into the crater itself, and broke off a piece of the internal surface, though not without some effort. This piece convinced us that the burned matter thrown out of the bowels of the volcano was yet capable of fusion, and forming then a pretty strong sub stance. Besides the changes undergone by the crater, I observed farther, on the left hand of it, and at a distance of about a hundred and fifty steps, a place in the original rock of the mountain, out of which arose a thick smoke, and on presenting my hand to that place I felt an intense degree of heat. Not having observed this phenomenon in any of my former visits, I concluded that in this place another eruption was preparing. In the month of March, 1816, 1 was again induced to ascend the volcano, and although no eruption had hap. pened in the interval between this visit and the former, some new changes had occurred in the mountain. The conical hill which encompassed the crater was, by the con tinual addition of burned matter, increased to the height of more than a hundred and twenty feet, and the opening of the crater seemed to be narrower than before. It was, however, sufficiently large to allow the egress of the mi neral matter; for the cinders arose without noise and hin drance, but in much less quantity than fbrmerly. The violence of the internal fire seemed to be considerably abated. This, perhaps, was to be attributed to the form ation of a new crater, in the very place where I had ob served in my last visit the smoke and the intense hear, The dimensions of this new crater were not very con siderable. It had a length of only one foot and a half, and was about half that in width ; but it was obvious that the work of nature here had not yet been completed; for the smoke rose not continually and uniformly, but by short impulses. Moreover, it was attended by a hollow noise under ground, and from time to time we felt a shaking of the soil under our feet; but no burned matter came out, and no fire was to he seen, although a small quantity of lava had issued out of the fissure in the act of its formation. Being some days afterwards informed that some new changes had taken place, I repaired anew, and for the last time, to the volcano in the month of May. I found TP,x, ,40 • 4, 441,\....- • . - _ , . ....end property, six months, have been Unprecedented in the most prosper l e state of the trade. In Staffordshire iron- eight t o tw hundred pounds p e r acre , d e f erre d, payments, has 'n given for improved land containing coal and iron atone; and four and five hundred pounds per acre, money, in many instances, fur ten-xrird or thick coal only, reserving the thin measures and iron stone! 140,000/. deferred pay ments, is reported to have been recently given for 160 acres of mineral in Staffordshire. The price of coal has risen 2s. notwithstanding the season of the year, and the great number of new pits at work and now sinking. These high prices, by disinterested judgments, are considered as by no means gene rally beneficial to the countrv,and decidedly prejudicial to the manufacturing and commercial interests. Coal, however, will probably maintain the present price, the general pro sperity of 411 trades, the iron trade particularly, combining to increase the demand. There is no stock in any part of the midland coal districts, and the consumers are often detained at the pit mouth for their loads. The consump tion of coal in lime-works and brick-making is very consi derably greater than generally known. About 12 cwt. of coal is calculated, on an average, to a thousand bricks, and more bricks are supposed to have been made during the last two quarters than in any similar period. Although the rail-road subscribers have not converted the Path?. nientary Committees to a belief in the practicability and expediency of rail-roads, yet their projects (which will he renewed next Session) have had a very seasonable effect in improving and facilitating the inland navigation of the country, and increasing the courtesy of the canal directo ries. But whatever may be the causes or future effects of the present extraordinary consumption and prices of iron and coal, certain it is that the midland districts of the trade never were in so flourishing a state, and the benefi cial consequences to the agricultural interest and retail trades so correspondingly great. It is also gratifying to observe, that although the demand for, and the prices of, the raw and manufactured articles have naturally raked the price of labour, yet, with very few exception", the masters and the men have amicably agreed on their relative claims. -•- - :. • • ---•••••L x- ..' • , 4 A ,, + • . , 0 b ...

INGENIOUSIMPOST OR. About a fortnight ago a woman dressed in raga, tottering two. fold, as if bent down with age, and whose face bore all the marks of the most inveterate cancer, appeared in Kirkcudbright, and levied contributions from all and sundry—some being moved to pity by her incessant groans, and others anxious to escape from an object so loathsome. In the course of her peregrinations the industrious mendicant called at the house of Bailie Low, who at once informed her that vagrants were forbidden to beg in the town, and admonished her to decamp on pain of being immured in the black hole. This hint had the desired eltiier, and the woman retreated with so much activity, that the above 31agistrate began to suspect that all was not right. Following, therefore, in company with another gentlema. lie at last got her so far separated from the crowd, who thought it sin to molest so great an object, an to be able to inquire into the reality of her .malady. At the first she only responded to his questions by groans, and it was not till something very like force, was about to be used, that she slowly and reluctantly removed. the mask. And then, what was the vision the gentlemen be.. held? Not the fiendlike suiter so eloquently described in Lallalt Rookh—not the intrusive ghost that danced away with the " Fair Imogene"—not a skeleton reduced to skin and bone, whose juices, forsaking their natural channels, oozed out in blotches and putrid sores; but a plump, comely, buxom queen, little wore than thirty years of age, and fitter to be the bride of an Irish labourer, than the lazy representative of a broken-down beggar. Though her face resembled a t hugs ulcer, or rather many sores tun into one, from which the nose had entirely disappeared, and to which the cunning twinkle of a pair of small grey eyes lent a frightful expression, the whole was the effect of fraud and strata gem. A number of pieces of linen rap, ingeniously folded and intertwisted, and, moreover, cunningly painted or stained, formed the whole material of the impostor's mask ; and, if report may be credited, the effect was so striking as to deceive the moat vigilant and discriminating eye. In addition to this, she carried with her a small tin filled with water, which she ever and anon applied to her lips, amt slyly squirted a portion of the moisture on the folds of the linen, so as to make it appear that the sores were fresh. As a matter of course, the impostor was instantly eon •eyed to gaol, from which place she was brought forth on Friday last, and publicly exhibited on a temporary pillory, with a label sunpended from as iron chain, on which was painted in large characters—" Behold an infamous impostor." And here, in the first instance, she was permitted to figure in her original disguise__ mask, wallets, rags and all ; but before the comedy had ended, an officious hand unclasped the visor, and exhibi.ed a transforma tion, the effect of which was quite electrical upon the risible muscles and faculties of the mob. Every one thought its pity to deform so fair a face, and from the way the woman winced under the jibes, jeers, and jokes of the crow.% many suspected that she would have preferred as a punishment the application of the hangman's whip, so that her shame had been a little more con cealed. From the pillory she was again conveyed to the gaol, to arrange her dress according to her own taste, and previous to being drummed out of to wn.—Dumfr ies Courier. The object of Mr. Hamilton Rowan'e visit to this coun. try, which had become a topic of public conversation in Dublin, was not exactly understood there. That Gentle man did not come to London, we understand, to request a personal explanation of Mr. Peel. His presence here was thought expedient for facilitating the issue of a correspond ence, .which had taken place between Mr. Rowan and Mr. Dawson, relative to some expressions that had fallen front the latter in his place in Parliament. This unpleasant affair has, however, been brought to a termination, sells factory to the feelings of the friends of both parties, without compromising the honour of either.—Morning Pape.. EAriNo.—Every animal eats as much as it can procure, and as much as it can hold.
