CHARLES KENT'S NEW POEMS. Just published, EA M LAN D. With other Poems. By W. CHARLES KENT, Barrister-at-Law. Fcap. Svo., price ss. "Mr. Kent has undeniable merits—warm and high-toned feeling, a pleasant combination of grace and humotir, and no small power to individualise. 'Pope at Twickenham' is a cabinet picture. `Marianne' will Commend itself to all mothers by its gush of parental tenderness, and its actptaint ance with baby wiles and mysteries. Fructidor' shows what Dutch fidelity of word painting the author can master when he tries.

Tint it is by no means his only merit. He is a ma , ter of versification. The flow ot' his verse is smooth and me lodious, and enriched with a copious and ornate vocabulary. Shelley at Marlow' is a painting exquisitely delicate. The vision of Shelley with which Mr. Kent presents us is almost perfect. `DREAMLAND' is a work conceived in a noble spirit, and executed with scholarly taste, frequently with flashes of true poetic inspiration. • Ihe Dying Bridegroom' is distinguished by a gen u i ne p a th os, which leads us to be lieve that Mr. Kent would succeed eminently in some story of the affections."—The London Review.

Many theories were f.tarted as to the cause of this rather u pleasant incident~ some sa3ing that the gull y -h oles in the roof were too small others, that the gutters were too large ; and a third party, that the work had been done in too great a hurry, and that the tar had all melted off the .toof during the hot days. An attendant confirmed this theory by stating that the tar had come down upon him more than once in showers. _ ._. Count F, de Lagrango's Palestro, 4 yrs, Bst (H. Grimshaw) Mr. G. W. Fitzwilliani's Wallace, 5 yrs, Bst 91b Mr. COWPER admitted the statement of the hon. mem ber to be correct, but did not see how it was to be remedied. Plans had been prepared for an additional wing to the pre sent Record-office, but as yet no money had been voted for the work. (G. Fordham) 2 Mr. Saxon's Brown Duchess, 4 yrs, 7st 101 b (Midgley) 3 offer no apology for bringing forward a subject, which both in an economic and sanitary point of view, was pressing itself upon the attention of Parliament. Having referred to the steps that had already been taken by the other House of Parliament with respect to smoke and other nuisances, which had existed in the metropolis, and which had to a great extent been abated in consequence of those acts, tho noble lord proceeded to notice the dangerous system which was carried on to a great extent in many places in the North where the process of calico printing was actively carried on. It was well known that a great quantity of arsenic and white lead entered into that process, and the refuse of those works in many cases was turned into the adjacent rivers and streams, rendering them dangerous in the highest degree. He had lately had the pleasure of seeing a gentleman who would be acknowledged by their lordships to be a very high authority on the subject. Dr. Lyon Playfair, who had been down to examine the state of the water in one of those districts, and that gentleman found on exa mining- the bottom of one of the reservoirs that in one pound of the mud there were no less than from 10 to 13 grains of arsenic. Such being the state of matters, ho thought it became the duty of Parliament to take the subject into their serious consideration. (Hear, hear.) His present intention, how ever, was not to deal with certain streams, but it was con- Betting—Even on Palestro, The favourite made the running, followed by Wallace and Brown Duchess to the site of the Old Duke's Stand, where Wallace got to his head, and a close race home be tween the pair ensued, Palestro, who ran out at the finish, winning by a head. Brown Duchess, who was never in the race, trotted in some 50 lengths in their rear. THE DISTRESS IN THE COTTON MANU FACTORIES. BETTING AT MANCHESTER-FRIDAY, Mr. A. EGERTON, in accordance with notice, called attention to the subject of the wide-spread distress now pre vailing in the cotton-manufacturing districts. At the pre sent moment, he observed, there were not less than 58,000 operatives in those districts entirely without work, whilst a still large numbers were working short ti me . The di s t ress was most severely felt in Manchester, Preston, Rochdale, Wigan, and some other places; but in Bolton and Bury it was not quite so great, in consequence of the operations of the French Treaty. Whilst this was the existing state of things, ho was sorry to say that the cotton imports at Liver pool showed a falling off as to encourage no hope of any immediate improvement. It had been suggested in some quarters that an effort might be made by an appeal to na• tional charity for the purpose of affording relief ; but his own opinion was that the time had not yet arrived for re sorting to any such measure as that. There was a general feeling in the district that the poor-law was harshly administered, that the labour test was imposed unne cessarily, and that certain rigid rules which had been laid down by the board required to be relaied. He should be glad, therefore, to have information upon these questions, and also as to whether all had been done in the administration of the poor law that could be done with the view of meeting the emergency of tho case. The hon. gen tlemtn also inquired whether any reductions had been de cided upon in the Indian tariff affecting cotton, and if so whoa they would come into operation. - Plate of 50 soya, for maiden 2-yr-olds ; colts, Bst 7113 ; fillies, Bst 41b.

"Mr. Kent's poems come before the world with the advan tage, not only of an author's name, but of a name already agreeably and musically known in the metrical literature of the day. Ills 'Aletheia' was very favourably received by the public, and has no doubt been the companion of many thoughtful readers who will gladly welcome another volume from his pen.

The start was delayed awhile through Bceotia jumping round several times when on the point of starting, and the Vedette colt bolting to the left across the flat. When the flag was lowered Strawberry Hill slipped his horses and came on with a strong lead, followed on the upper ground by Bceotia, the Joyful colt, Batsman, and Odine with the others in close attendance. On reaching the dip Strawberry Hill gave way to the Joyful colt, who car ried on the running into the cords, where she was joined by Batsman, and the three finished a fine race home. Batsman, getting up in the last stride, won cleverly by a head, Strawberry Hill was an indifferent third, Star and Garter and Odine, side by side, were fourth and fifth, close up, the Vedette colt next. Lord Westmoreland claimed the winner, and Mr, Flutter claimed the Joyful colt. "Poems of very considerable excellence. Fructidor 'is a very close and vigorous word-painting of an orchard. Mr. Kent's volume is healthy and vigorous in sentiment, correct in composition, and contains many happy touches of true fancy, very gracefully expressed."—The Critic. "The pictures Mr. Kent makes are carefully drawn and effectively coloured. His work is on the whole in good taste. It possesses the undeniable, yet, in these days, rare merit of intelligibility, and is, moreover, very readable."—The Art- World. " We like some of Mr. Kent's minor poems even better than 'Dreamland.' He is a real poet, unquestionably, and often versifies with extreme felicity. Of his poetic power the ' Monody on Lord Strangford ' affords ample proof : while his capacity to make word-music is shown in • The Morris Dance:B." "—The Press. ALETHEIA ; on, THE Doom OF MYTHOLOGY.

The menu. facture of alum was carried on to a great extent in St. Helen's, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Glasgow, and other places, and the noxious vapours emitted by these manufactories was most destructive to vegetable life. In the neighbourhood of St. Helen's the damage to timber in the surrounding districts was inconceivable, and many of the poor persons who frequently depended upon the produce of a few fruit trees to pay their rent had had those trees entirely destroyed ; and, owing to the exist in; state of the law, the poor people were absolutely and entirely without redress. Earl GRAN VILLE said that feeling the great import. ance of the question which his noble friend had handled in so able a manner as to completely dispel any apprehensions that might have been entertained of his motion by the manufacturing interest, the Government were quite pre pared to give it their assent. After a few observations from Lord RAVENSWORTII, the motion was agreed to, the committee to be nominated on a future day. The Bills of Exchange (Ireland) Act, 1861, Amendment Bill was read a second time, and the Transfer of Stocks (Ireland) Bill a third time and passsed. Their lordships then adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS—YESTERDAY. The SrEAKEIL took the chair at four o'clock. PRIVATE BUSINESS. The Lords' amendments to the Bradford Corporation Water Bill were considered and agreed to, and the bill was ordered to be read a third time. The British Plate Glass Company Bill, and Webb and Craig's Patent Bill were read a third time and passed, and the Tyne General Ferry Bill was read a second time. PETITIONS. Several petitions were presented against the abolition of church rates, against the Highways Bill, against the impo sition of the income tax on incomes under £l5O a-year, and a g"'.f, the inquisitorial character of the tax; by Mr. M. GlflsoN from th inhabitants of Ashton-under-Lyne, praying that a law might be pft.sed to prevent the obtain ing of licences for the sale of spirituous liquors without the consent of ratepayers; against the appointment of the police Public-houses Licenses (Scotland) - THE INCOME TAX. Sir H. WILLOUGHBY gave notice that when the Customs and Revenue Bill came on he would move the introduction of a clause providing for the paying of expenses of persons who had been summoned to give information relative to their incomes. THE IS SHIPPING ACT. Lord HOTHAM asked the right hon. gentleman (Mr, M. Gibson) when he intended to proceed with this bill ? Mr. M. GIBSON said that it was arranged that the com mittee of supply this evening should not go beyond 10 or half•past 10 o'clock, when he would proceed with the Merchant Shipping Act. Lord HOTHAM said that he understood the right hon. gentleman to state last night that he would inform the house this evening when he would bring the bill forward, but he had not the slightest idea that it would come before the house this evening. He acted under that impression, and communicated with some members of the house, who were absent in consequence of his statement. Mr. LOCKE was not present when the right hon, gen- tleman made his statement, but he was under the impres sion from what he read that the noble lord (Hotham) was correct. Mr. M. GIBSON said that he had communicated with the noble lord at the head of the Government, and the arrangement which be mentioned was decided on. How ever, under the circumstances, he would not bring the mea sure forward this evening. (Hear, hear.) M. MERCIER'S VISIT TO RICHMOND: In reply to Sir J. DUKE, Mr. LAYARD said that the visit of M. Mercier to Richmond was without any instruction from his Govern ment, and was attended with no political results. PROMOTION OF NAVAL OFFICERS ON THE RESERVED LIST. Sir J. HAY asked the Secretary to the Admiralty to lay upon the table of the house a copy of the form of commis sion promoting the first-named 90 officers on the reserved list of the navy to the rank of captain ; and a copy of the form of commission promoting the last two officers on that list to the rank of captain, with any explanationthere may have been for the necessity of changing the form of commission : to ask for a return of the names and pay or other emoluments of the first sixteen captains on the reserved list : and to move that the case of the reserved captains be referred to the law officers of the Crown. Mr. B. Cochrane, Major Edwards, and Admiral Walcott supported the motion. _ _ _ Mr. BERKELEY opposed the motion, and was under stood to say that he thought that the officers on the reserved list were not entitled to the promotion in question, when there were so many lieutenants who were engaged in active service. Lord C. PAGET said that this was a question which had been so frequently discussed in the House of Com mons that if he went into it at any length he would only be repeating what had been already stated by honourable members. He might state that, in consequence of the opinion expressed by certain hon, members on the opposite side of the house, his noble friend the Duke of Somerset had laid the whole question before the law officers of the Crown, who were of opinion that the course adopted by Government was quite correct, His (Lord C. Paget's) sympathies were with the officers alluded to, but he did not think they viVre entitled to be planed on an equality with 'uiticers engaged in active service. He had no objection to the production of the document asked for as regarded the 00 officers and 12 officers in question, but drew attention to the fact that it was not usual or convenient to lay the opinion of the law officers on the table of the house. Mr. TALBOT congratulated the house on the fact that this matter had been referred to the law officers of the crown, but he thought the opinion of these officers should be laid on the table of the house. Sir J. PAKINGTON said that there were public rea sons why the opinions of the law officers of the crown should not be laid on the table, and he trusted that the hon. member (Sir j . Hay) would not persevere with this subject, but rest satisfied with the conviction that he had done all in his power for the class of officers in whose welfare he Ras so much interested. Mr. MALINS said he had been present at the different discussions which had taken place on the vexata questio,. Which ho considered had become more perplexed by the speech of the right hon. member, who had taken a different view on previous occasions. He thought the case laid be fore the law officers of the crown should be submitted to the house, i n order to enable honourable mem b ers to judge if chat statement embodied all the facts of the case, lie had the highest opinion of the law officers of the crown, but as a man of experience and common sense, an erroneous opinion might be obtained from the most eminent lawyer in consequence of the nature of the statement laid before him. The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that the fact was that the statements made by the officers who felt themselves aggrieved, had keen laid before the law officers of the Mr. POTTER also bore testimony to the extent and seve rity of the destitution prevailing in the cotton districts, and stated it as his conviction that no system of public charity or poor-law relief would be adequate to grapple with the evil He recommended that an inquiry should be instituted by the Government by means of a Royal commission or a seleA committee of the house. tit- C. WOOD stated that he was in possession of no mere recent information from India than that which was contained in the published telegraphic despatches; but he believed the condition of Indian finance was such as to ad.. mit of a considerable reduction in the scale of duties affect ing cotton. Mr. VILLIERS acknowledged the extent of the suffering, and expressed his admiration of the noble manner in which it had been borne. He assured the house that he had availed himself of all the means at his command to become thoroughly acquainted with the state of the workpeople in the cotton districts, and the -measures adopted by the poor law guardians and overseers to meet the difficulty. Appre hending the pressure that must be experienced if the un fortunate contest in America continued much longer, early in the year he addressed a circular to every union in the cotton districts and the districts connected by business with the American trade, expressing his anticipations of approaching suffering, and requesting them to make all the provision in their power for an unusual occur rence of distress. And in the majority of cases the an swers he received assured him that the guardians were ready to meet any emergency that might arise by means of their ordinary resources. He was happy to say that the returns forwarded weekly to the Poor-law Depart ment showed that there had been some diminution of dis tress at the close of last month, although he was quite ready to admit that many and great privations were endured by a largo number of persons. He believed, however, there were ample resources in the public rates for the relief of distress, even if it should continue to spread to a greater extent. The present rate of expenditure for the relief of the poor in Lan cashire was Is. 10d. in the pound on the rateable value, which was considerably less than the amount levied in thn Sheffield. With regard tolln laodur teiicte-tad'iotbelreve it was unnecessarily or harshly imposed ; and such was the high feeling of the people of Lancashire generally that he thought they would rather do work than receive parish re lief. But seeing no prospect of a cessation of the distress, tho Poor-law Board had instructed experienced persons to proceed at once to the cotton districts to inquire into the mode of administering the law, and whether it was carried out in a just and proper spirit, as well as to bring into har monious action with the guardians the voluntary relief com mittees who were now occupied in doing so much good. From all the information that had reached him, there was no reason to complain of the authorities on the spot, and he was satisfied that no greater harm could bo inflicted on the poor themselves than by creating distrust in their minds in that respect. Mr. BRIGHT complimented Mr. Egerton on the able manner in which he had brought the question under the notice of the house. Although there was great and growing distress in the cotton districts, it was not so universal as many persons at a distance supposed, whilst it was more severe in some towns than in others. The suffering in Lan cashire in 1840 and 1841 was much greater than at the pre sent moment, and although he was not sure that so many persons were then out of work, it had continued for a much longer period after a season of much less preceding pros perity. But there was no doubt that the case wa s growing worse, and must continue to grow worse. He con sidered that, in these painful circumstances, the boards of guardians ought to exercise a wide discretion in regard to the treatment of this grave case. It was necessary, too, that other assistance should be given than that which the guardians could supply by means of rates; and a commit tee formed in every parish might collect subscriptions in aid from those who were not on the verge of destitution themselves, but had larger means, and perhaps did not pay rates in proportion to their wealth. At present he thought that even if the distress continued for some months to come Lancashire was well able to take care of itself without send ing the hat round the country. Turning then to a recent speech of the Foreign Secretary, Mr. Bright animadverted with some severity upon the statement of the noble earl, that he hoped in a few months the Northern States of America would permit the Southern States to become inde pendent, and the effect of which, he observed, had been most injurious. For the day on which that speech reached Manchester the whole cotton trade was checked, yarn fell from 7 to 10 per cent,, and the trade of Manchester had suffered greatly. If he might give the noble earl a piece of advice it would be in the words of Hosea Biglow's grand father—more forcibly than grammatically expressed—when he said— " Don't never prophesy unless you know." Mr. lIIBBERT, the newly-elected member for Oldham, said that, although the people in the distressed districts bore their sufferings with great fortitude, they thought the Poor Law Board should suspend their labour-test, which at pre sent greatly interfered with the distribution of relief. General LINDSAY, speaking on behalf of the board of guardians, relief committee, and town of Wigan, disavowed all desire on their pact to resort for relief to the Consoli dated lund until the means afforded by the poor rates and private benevolence had been exhausted. He thought the speech of the President of the Poor Law Board was calcu lated to be most useful, especially in fortifying the guar dians in doing their duty. The determination of the Go vernment to send down a competent person to make inqui ries on the spot was a wise one, and would be attended with valuable results. Mr. BAZLEY also urged the necessity of mitigating or relaxing the rigid labour-test, and providing an indepen dent supply of cotton by opening up communication with the interior of India through the improvement of the Goda very river, Mr. GILPIN denied that the wish was generally enter tained by the boards of guardians to dispense with or relax the labour-test, or that the term "rigid" was justly appli cable to any of the regulations of the Poor Law Board. The Marquis of Hartington, Mr. W. Egerton, Sir M. Farquhar, and Sir G. Grey also addressed the house, the Home Secretary taking occasion to speak in high terms of the patience, fortitude, forbearance, judgment, and right feeling which had characterised the demeanour of the working classes in this crisis of their sufferings. The subject then drops e d. ROYAL COURT OF JERSEY. In answer to Mr. Sergeant PIGOTT, Sir G. GREY sated that the question of the reform of the constitution and procedure of the Royal Court of Jer- , sey had better be left for the present in the hands of the States of the island, and that he did not contemplate in troducing any measure on the subject. SUPPLY. The houso having gone into committee of supply, re sumed the consideration of the civil service estimates. Mr. DILLWYN moved that the vote of £116,695 for the Department of Science and Art be reduced by the sum of £7,106 ; but on a division the motion was negatived by 111 to 48, and the vote agreed to.

They ran in this way to the entrance of the cords, where Rogers eased his horse, and Argonaut went on with a slight advantage to the top of the hill. Rogers then came in earnest, and succeeded in landing the popular colours of the noble earl by the sb.ortest:of heads ; Xurullo was beaten off some distance.

The Life of Edward Irving, Minister of the . National Scotch Church, London. Illustrated by his Journals and Correspondence. By Mrs. Oliphant. 2 vols. Hurst and Blaekett. It is almost needless to observe that this is an interesting work, as most readers will know for themselves that the details of so eminent a man cannot be otherwise. The authoress has performed her task con amore, and thus the descriptions are at once animated and attractive. It is of essential service in the study of such a man's career, to be enabled to peruse his letters which are here offered for consideration by the favour of his children. They display considerable kindness of heart and a deep humility of feeling that is not often found in the sentiments of one so followed and so flattered. Happy is it for the memory of all the famed ones of earth if, in passing away from their greatness, they leave their best and brightest records in the ties of home and kindred they have faithfully cherished. Even in the most mistaken moments of his life, Irving seems to have been more an enthu siast led away by excitement than an originator of a doctrine to lead captive adoring votaries for the vanity of human opinions in many portions of this work. When Irving first began that career, which was afterwards to gain for him a worldwide renown, his opening days were as dark as many that have lowered over humbler and less successful bre thren. Some rudely left the church, all complained, and the same church, says the narrator, " which a few years later was disastrously crowded with hearers, coming far and near at the name of the great preacher, thinned out of its ordinary attend ance, in those early days when he was to supply Irving's place." The reader is led on through the various phases and successive changes till he reaches the proud meridian of his fame. The great influence which he exerted over his hearers is most surpris ing. It is here remarked that those who steadily resorted to hear a man who kept them three hours at a stretch plunged in the deepest questions of religion, " must indeed have been under the sway of a fasci nation seldom exercised, of which few men knew the secret." Irving's manner in private life was most impressive. "He unconsciously assigned to everybody he addressed a standing ground in some degree equal to his own. The ' vision splendid' attended him not only through his morning course, but throughout all his career. The light around him never faded into the light of common day." The second volume is chiefly filled with accounts of the several discussions and disputations that followed on the promulgation of Irving's peculiar doctrines. Of these it is not necessary here to speak, except to remark that, throughout the angry and vexed course of the most irritating of all subjects, religious con tention, Irving seems to have maintained a dignity that would have become the grandest advocate of a most glorious cause. Mistaken and misguided as he was on many points, he certainly possessed those qualities which are rarely met with in troublous times.

B Dr. Dolli - nger. _trans lated by W. B. AT , Cab e . H urs t an d Blackett. The volume before us i s the work of a German t h eo logical author of considerable note, who has e xercised some politicalinfluence i n his own country. For four years h Munich, being one represented the University of ng one of its Faculty of Theology, in the Bavarian Chamber, where he was regarded as one of the leaders of the Ultramontanes. There appears, however, to have been some difficulty in rightly comprehending his views, since on being elected a deputy to the National Parliament in 1848, he spoke and wrote in favour of civil and religious liberty. His translator remarks that " the same spirit and the same principles which made him in religion the keenest of controversial writers, and the most earnest advocate of reforms, guided him in political life, and made him the ex ponent of the highest Catholic views and the champion of ecclesiastical freedom." The modera tion of his tone, and the fearlessness with which he discusses subjects not often handled by writers of his faith, admitting the need of reforms and altera tions, render his work somewhat peculiar. He is one of the school of thinkers who desire to see unity restored in the Christian Church, and are not without hopes of an adjustment of the differences between Catholics and Protestants. With regard to the temporal power of the Papacy, his views are best expressed in his own words :—" Let no one lose faith in the Church, if the temporal principality o f the Papacy should disappear, whether it be for a season or i'or ever. It is not essence but accident; not end but means ; it began lat hest it was formerly something quite different from wit is now. It now justly appears to us to be indispensable; and so long as the existing order lasts in Europe it must at all costs be main tained, or if it is violentl y interrupted it must be restored. But it is possible to conceive a political condition in Europe i n which it would be superfluous, and then it woull only be burden." With the exception of the a clogging The Minton fountain is going on rapidly, and is expected to be finished in about a fortnight, and the demolition of the trophies progresses slowly. Every one that is removed improves the appear ance of the nave. In some cases a sort of compro mise has been attempted, and the offender has been decapitated in the hope that thus the public might be satisfied. The top trophy, and one or two more, were in this state yesterday ; but they looked, if possible, worse than before. Nothing, in fact, less than the complete removal of these obstructive nuisances will make the nave a place pleasant either to look at or to walk in. Mr. Emanuel has added a wondrous black pearl to his collection, which his assistant obligingly informed the ladies weighed 100 grains, and was worth £2,ooo—two pieces of information which seemed very much to increase the general curiosity. In the Swiss court we learned that the watches which had been stolen the previous day had been recovered, and the thief caught. He was, it appears, one of the Swiss attendants, and was identified at his counter by the pawnbroker with whom he had pledged the goods. On the western platform, close to the throne, Mr. Wagner, the great Berlin silversmith, was con tinually surrounded by groups admiring the beau ties of the plate which had been prepared by order of the city of Berlin as wedding presents for the Crown Prince and Princess. The shield, the pre sent of the Rhenish nobility, was especially admired, the more so as the legend with which it was covered was lucidly explained by the artist. The plate collectively, including the shield, the vase, and the candelabra, weighs, we were informed, four and a half hundredweight of the finest silver. But the lion of the day was certainly the French court, which was crowded with visitors of the highest distinction. First, Queen Christina of Spain was wheeled through in a bath chair, accompanied by the Due do Rianzares, and attended by a limited suite. Shortly afterwards came several members of the ex-royal family of France, including the Queen Marie Amelie, the Duc de Nemours, the Prince de Joinville and daughter, and the Prin cess Clementine of Saxe Coburg. These dis tinguished groups stopped a long time before the splendid display of Cristophe, which seemed almost sufficient to form an exhibition of itself. The central plate - au for the banquets of the Hotel do Ville, was pronounced to be a marvel both of workmanship and design, and some of the Eng lish visitors suggested that a deputation from the corporation of London should come and see how much better " they manage these matters ill France." Queen Christina appeared to be most taken with the lovely porcelains (Bisque) of Gille, and the French party were much attracted by the novel combinations of bronze Dare and African onyx.
