This distinction our lamented countryman owed not so much to the remembranc e of the important services whish he rendered to his native city, on a great public occasion, a: to the pe culiar excellency of his own private character, which, with admirable address, he made available under all circumstances. To abilities of a high order, and knowledge of great extent, Sir William Arbuthnot added a de gree of good-nature which it is hardly an exaggera tion to call matchless. It was not confined to his own happy fire-side,—alas, now how desolate ! but was not less his peculiar characteristic in every quarter where his influence could be useful. In him this amiable attribute was not transient, or con tingent on the quality of his company or of his oc cupations, but pervaded his whale life, manners, and conversation, so completely, that its beneficial impress was stamped upon every thing he under took. Doubts and difficulties, and even the deter minations of party spirit, often yielded cheerfully to his generous influence; and as all men with whom he had to do were instinctively persuaded of his entire gond faith, his arguments, with which no selfish feeling was ever known to mix, carried with them a degree of persuasion, if not of conviction, of the greatest importance in the trying situations in which be was frequently placed. Sir William Arbuthnot's character may be sum med up in a very few and common place words. He was a thoroughbred gentleman, while his education, the habits of his life, and the companionship by which those habits were graced and adorned, were in every respect worthy of his descent. In public as well as in private life, also, his conduct bore uniform testimony to the strength and purity of those loftier principles by which alone even such excellent gifts as he was endowed with by nature could have been rendered serviceable to himself or to others.

LONDON UNIVERSITY MAGA- To have entertained his Sovereign in the city over which he then presided, in such - a manner as not only to gratify the illustrious personage whom it was so essentially his duty to please, bnt also to satisfy the whole mass of his countrymen that the reception given to their King was suitable to the dignity of the nation so highly honoured, 'Was a very important service, and such as will not soon be forgotten. The benignant, we may almost venture to call it flattering manner, in which his Majesty 'narked his gracious sense of Sir William Arbuth. not's conduct upon this occasion, may he classe , amongst the most remarkable instances of good last by which his Majesty's r e i gn h as b een di stinguished This well-timed national compliment, as it may fairly be called, bestowed, as it was, on so true a representative of all that was loyal and virtuous in the country, was gratefully acknowledged by every class of the community; while there was perhaps not an individual in the land who did not feel enti tled to some share in the honour thus conferred on one who was so universally esteemed and respected. It is instructive to observe how strongly such slight isut judicious touches of kindness on the part of the Monarch of these realms serve to knit toge ther in the spirit of one common and heartfelt loyalty all the different ranks of which the society is composed. And we in Scotland must ever con sider ourselves as eminently fortunate in having pos sessed a man like Sir Wm. Arbuthnot to take the foremost station among us on such an occasion. ZINE.

V I Al 5• IV. and V. of tke CONTINUATION. LONDON MARKETS. (From the London New Price Current of yesterday.) SUGAR. —The Sugar Market has been uncommonly dull all the week, and in several instances, where the holders were determined to force sales, lower prices have been submitted to, but the reduction is not general. The estimated sales of the week do not exceed 200 hhds. and tics. The Market this afternoon closed very heavily. There has been less animation hi the Refined trade this week ; some purchases for export have been made, but at rather lower prices, notwithstanding the comparative scar city of goods. The grocers have taken rather more of the fine descriptions this week for home consumption, hut still the trade must be reported uncommonly dull. Molasses are 6.1. lower. FOREIGN SUGARS.—By private contract this week 130 chests soft to good white Bahia sold at an average of 28s. ; 50 barrels good to fine Porto Rico, 255. By public sale 450 chests Havannah, one•third damaged, 160 chests were good white, and were taken in at 483. a 48s. 6d., some part since placed at the withdrawing price ; the remainder good yellow withdrawn. This day 47 chests white Pernams were offered at public sale, 255. to 30s. 6d. ord. to mid. white. EAST INDIA SUGAR.—On Tuesday 4,452 bags Marini.. tins Sugar were offered at public sales ; about 3,500 sold, the low at a reduction of Is., the mid. and good nearly at former prices, but very heavy. There are no purchases of East India Sugar by private contract. COFFEE. —We have had an uncommon heavy Coffee Market all the week, and the prices generally are fully ls. per cwt. lower for all descriptions of British Plantation, with the exception of some parcels of Dutch taken for home consumption. East India Coffee has been offered also at a small reduction, without facilitating sales. In Foreign Coffee there is no alteration, but the Market is heavy. This day at the public sale 193 casks 294 bags British Plantation, 200 bags Havannah, the latter fine ord. coloury sold so high as 40s. and 40s. 6d., goad ord. pale at 345. The British Plantation at former prices. Rust, BRANDY, AND HOLLANDS.—The Rum Market has been very dull, with a tendency to a decline in the prices ; the few purchases reported are in Leewards, under proof at Is. 9.1., 2 and 3 over ls. 10d., 8 over at Is. 11d. The transactions in Jamaica are limited to one large parcel of fine quality and very strong, some part 36 over, all taken at 3s 2.1. The accounts of the rise of Brandy in the French markets occasion a great firmness here, but there is no further advance in prices, and the sales are inconsi derable. Geneva is still neglected. HEMP, FLAX, AND TALLow.--•-The Tallow Market has been steady; there is little variation in the prices. Hemp is firm. In Flax there is no material alteration. Letters from St. Petersburgh are dated 16th ult. Exchange 10 22-32 d. ; Tallow 98 ; bought 4,600 ; shipped off 113,000; Hemp 1 ; freights 355. ; ships arrived 613; ships I sailed 514. Tircx.—ln Rice there is no alteration. Corrox.—The reports of the failure in the Cotton crop in America begin to attract attention ; at New Orleans there is a deficiency of 35,000 bags; at Charleston and other ports of the United States nearly in the same pro portion ; a speculative demand has commenced at Liver and the prices generally are id. higher. The Market here is very firm ; Surats are id. to id. higher, and other descriptions are also a shade higher. The purchases for the week ending last night are more extensive than usual, and a large proportion of the Cotton sold was taken yester day. The sales are 400 Bengal at 3&d. a 3id., 2,810 Surat at 3d. to 41., 30 Para at sad., and 120 Spanish at fild. a 6-d. The letters from Liverpool this morning state that on the first three days of this week about 14,000 bags Cotton have been sold, generally atLd, to id. ad vance. SCOTCH MARKETS.

Our readers may remember that the Magistrates of Tipperary lately applied to Go vernment for a renewal of the insurrection act, on ac count of the disturbed stile of the county. The applica tion proceeded from a very full board of magistrates, and had the concurrenc e of not a few gentlemen of Whig or liberal principles. Yet the Lord Lieutenant, who, of course acts with the privity and concurrence of Ministers, stated in his reply, that nothing but the increase and ex tension of the existing evils, and the proved insufficiency of the present constitutional means of removing them, could induce him to sanction the application of the Magistrates. This was an answer worthy of a patriot and a statesman, and the past history of Ireland enhances its importance. When we remember how ready the Government has been in former times to have recourse to force, oven without the call of the local authorities, we cannot but feel that a new and better era has opened for that unhappy country. The system of paltering with her miseries by short-sighted ex pedients and delusive remedies, is certainly past, and we now feel an assurance that her destinies are under the guidance of men who are acting in the best spirit of hu manity, and who take enlarged views of her situation and interests. No human being in the world at this day has so vast a field before him for the achievement of good as the Prime Minister of Britain. 'We will not say that the Duke of WELLINGTON realises the idea of a patriot Mini ster, for confidence is the growth of time, and we have not seen him tried in a sufficient variety of situations ; but judging from present appearances, he has the will, as he has undoubtedly the power, to confer greater benefits upon his country than any man who has been in office for a century. We pray that he may always have the wis dom to resist the suggestions of the ignorant, the violent, the selfish, and the short-sighted, and follow steadily the dictates of his own high courage and excellent under dtsadit►gi.,rScotanian: INDIGO.—There are further declarations of Indigo for the next sale.

The Professor concluded his Lecture by observing on the ad vantages which the University enjoyed, from the time, the place, and the circumstances of its foundation ; and by exhorting the Students, not only for their own interests but for those of the University, not to afford, by their conduct, any just opportunity to the prejudiced opponents (if this great undertaking to cast censure upon it or upon its members. The Professor was warmly applauded at the conclusion of his Lecture; and the majority of his auditors, who amounted to between three and four hundred, quitted the Theatre to pay a visit to the Medical Museum, which, it was publicly announced, had been opened for the Students. PRICE 7,, LONDON UNIVERSITY. Mr. Charles Bell, on Thursday, delivered the Introductory Lecture to the Medical Classes at the University. They were now assembled in an University differing in the manner in which it had been founded from all that had preceded it. In ancient times religion was the only cause ca pable of producing so great ati effect, and ac cordingly we found that all Universities which were formed at those periods were founded and endowed with a religious object, and were placed under the direction and controul of ecclesiastics. In these Universities the proper method of stu dying, aid not the science to be studied, was the principal object of attention ; the Professors, even in those sciences which were now made to depend principally on verified and repeated ex periments, caring less for the amount of know ledge required by the student than for the way in which he had acquired it. The writings o 1 Aristotle held a despotic dominion over the minds of men : they were reverenced almost as a divine production, and were not unfrequently taken up into the pulpit along with the sacred volume, which they alone were thought worthy to accompany. The consequence of this mode of education was that the Student might, in time, be able to defend any set of propositions, with a degree of skill that defied almost the pos sibility of defeat; but could scarcely ever hope to discover whether those propositions were founded in truth. This habit of teaching con tinued, in some places, long after wiser men had renounced it ; and Locke related that during his travels he was assailed by one of these scholastic champions, who, after the usual salutation, attacked him so fiercely with argument as to afford him no chance of escape ; but, fortu ' nately, the champion's lungs being unequal to sustain this effort for ever, be was, after some time, obliged to desist from continuing this Aristotelian lecture, which else might hardly have come to a termination. This system had been the work of the Clergy and the Lawyers— the latter of whom, for a very long period, framed their pleadings on its rules ; but it was a highly curious fact that it was first broken through by a lawyer, who substituted in its stead the induc tive mode of proof, and taught men not to look in fancifid theories, but in accurately performed experiments for the truths of science. But for that great man, science might almost have been in the same state now as in the dark ages of European History. Some changes had been made by time and circumstances, and a few men of great genius had begun to adopt the inductive method; but it was Bacon who invested it with authority, and utterly destroyed the power by which mankind had been so long enthralled. Instead now of following a certain routine of teaching without regard to its deficiencies, or to those varying circumstances which in time re quired a modification of any even the best sys tem that human ingenuity could form, the ob jects of modern Professors, especially of those in this University, was to adopt such improve ments as experience might suggest. This Uni versity possessed within itself not only all the means but all the incentives to improvement, and could scarcely ever, under any circumstances, be found behind the advanced state of the age. In the first place there was the constant intercourse kept up between the University and the public by means of the large body of shareholders, whose interests of every kind would prompt them to see that no usages were obstinately adhered to merely because they had once been established. In the next place it was the interest of each Professor to adopt every possible improvement in the mode of teaching by which he might in sure an increase of advantage and reputation r and lastly, there were the Members of the Coun cil, who, themselves men of science and men of the world, would take care that the University, with the prosperity and success of which they had so identified themselves, should not want any of those advantages that an increase of knoWledge in any part of the world might be able to confer. The Professor here went into con siderable detail, to show the great exertions that had been made by the Council and the Profes sors to render the education afforded to the me dical classes complete. He observed that the industry and application of the Medical Stu dents could never f a il o f its reward ; and it was with pleasure he was enabled to state, as some encouragement to exertion, that Ple Right Hon. C. Wynn had presented to the Council the dis posal of a Surgeoncy ill the East India Com pany's service.--( A pplause.)—The Professors would feel the greatest interest in the improve ment of the students of their class, and each Professor would use his utmost endeavours to arrive at that perfection of teaching the art of •interesting the student. They would in that re spect imitate the example of the excellent Author of the Theory of Moral Sentiment, and the Wealth of Nations, who, when Professor of Moral Philosophy in the University of Glasgow, observed among his class one young man whose attitude was usually that which marked profound attention ; and whenever Dr. Adam Smith ob served that student throw himself back in his seat in a manner that marked weariness or inat tention, he felt that he must either have omitted some link in the chain of his reasoning, or had fallen into some obscurity in his illustrations, and accordingly exerted himself to remedy the defect, never feeling satisfied till he observed that pupil again listening with earnest attention to his discourse.—(Applause.) The Medical Science was that which never failed to repay the labour of the industrious student ; the physician at the bed-side of the sick patient seemed occupied in the discharge of I duties of the most amiable kind, and the mem bers of the medical profession were always treated with great and deserved respect.

Yesterday an inquest was held at the Coloveure Tavern, Portland-road, before Mr. STIRLING, re , specting the death of Catherine Levison, occasiontei by the fire which took place in Carbniton-street on Tuesday morning. Her lather ' William Levison, came before the Jury w r app e d in a blanket, and much scorched; and he stated, that the house No. 2, Carburton-street, and adjoining the Colosseum Tavern, was kept by Mr. Garrett, a carver and gilder, and he (the wit ness), who is also of the same trade, occupied the seeofid floor as a residence for himself and his two daughters, and the attics as workshops. On Tues day, about six o'clock, he called his daughter. 71 . 1 as usual. They slept in an inner room. White lee was doing so, he heard some one knock very loudly at the street door, tied the bell rang at the same time, and somebody cried " Fire." He threw up the ‘vindow=sash i and he saw smoke coming from under the cornice of Mr, Garrett's shop; Mr. Garrett was in the street, and one of Mr. Garrett's apprentices was upon the leads aboee the shop cornice. le found a stranger ringing the bell, and there were three or four others in the street, and the recome mended him to escape at the top of the house. He opened the door of the staircase to ascertain by %sleet means their lives could be saved, and a volume of fire and smoke met him, and he could not see whethrs the lower part of the staircase was gone or not. H went into the room where the children were. They had got their window open into another street (the house is at the corner of Norton-street and Cara burton-street), and the people there urged him to throw them out of the window. The Coeceena asked the ages of the children: He said one was 13, and the other, the deceased, 11. He stood at the window to see whether any l.idders could be brought, and two or three were these very shortly, but unfortunately every one wee too short. Durine this time the children were hang , iug upon him and beseeching him to save them. In that extremity he threw two or three mattresses out of the window, some blankets and pillows, with a full determination to throw the children down. He had turned round, and taking up one to drop it, and when be returned to the window there was a longer ladder there. He held the top of it to keep it steady, and put his eldest daughter upon it, and directed her to go down it. A stranger came up to meet her, and carried her safely to the bottom. He then put the little girl upon the ladder, and gave her the same directions; but after elle lied pro ceeded a short distance, some one in the street can tinned her to " hold fast;" and she, thinltieg lie meant remain where you are, did so; and the co.: - rent of air entangled her night clothes with the ladder, and — she was exposed to the beat of the flames which were issuing from the first floor w;tr dows as if from the mouth of a furnace. Seeing her in that state, he went down to assist her. He caught hold of one of her arms with his hand, but he could not disengage her from the ladder, and the same stranger came up, and took her down. During that time he was very much burnt himself ; he was so burnt lie was obliged to go back into the window again, w bile the stranger was assisting the child, and as soon as it was done, he went down the ladder himself. The CORONER asked him if he could account for the fire. He replied, " No, Sir, but I can well point out the probabilities of it. By the foot of the stairs, on the kitchen floor, there were as many shavings as would fill 20 sacks. The kitchen was used by Mr. Garrett as a work-shop, and the hey had been to light a fire in it that morning." Ile (the witne.s) had lived in dread of some accident, and said to Mr. Garrett on Saturday evening, " If these shavings take fire, the stairs must be destroyed and I and my children will be burned." The stranger who went up the ladder to assist the children, proved to be Mr. Thomas Norman, of 26, Ogle -street, tailor, Rho gave evidence corre sponding with the above. Alexander Frederick Pearce, of No. 7, Chalton, street, Somers-town, is apprenticed to Mr. Garrett. He went to his master's house, in Carburton street, at six o'clock on Tuesday morning. He let himself in with a key which he always took home with him at night. His master was not up, he sleeps on the first floor; he went down to the kit chen, and laid the fire with shavings twisted toge ther very hard, cinders and coals; he struck a light with the tinder-box in his lap; he lighted a candle and set it upon the bob of the grate after he lit the fire, and put the tinder-box in the oven. His mas ter came down three times, and on the third time, about half -past six o'clock, sent him tip to brush his clothes in his bed-room, and followed him in two minutes. In another three minutes people knocked, his muster opened the staircase doOr, and lire and flames rushed in, and they were both obliged to jump from the first floor window. He could not tell how the fire could communicate with a quantity of shavings under the staircase, unless a cat and two kittens took it there: they frequently lay under the grate, and he always drove them away for fear of their carrying sparks to the shavings. Mr. Garrett expressed a wish to give the particu lars of the case as they came under his knowledge. His statement, which was not taken upon oath, cor responded with that of the witnesses, excepting that he did cot recollect being in the kitchen when he sent Pearce up stairs to brush his clothes. After the fire was extinguished, it was found that the kitchen was not burnt, and the Coroner ask e d him how h e cou ld account for that circumstance, and how he supposed the accident happened. Mr. Garrett said, " I was burnt out eight years ago in a very singular way. No one could account for it." A Juryman—Was that in Wardour-street ? Mr. Garrett—No, and I was not insured. In this case I am insured' for 9001.: the house for 3001. stock 4001., fixtures .501., and household goods 1.501. His apprentice, Pearce, was re-examined, and he again stated, that when he went up stars the last time, he left Mr. Garrett in the kitchen. The verdict of the Jury was—" That the de ceased died in consequence of injury received from the fire, but how that originated did not appear ;" and they added a censure upon Mr. Garrett for his want of caution. )10e r t tbe neat ,00 If Oi l TO st 0 NO 60 0 / (1 11 I die loog be' tbs 9 VP, et 01 e ti! to .

Extract of a letter, dated Frankfort, Sept. 21 : —" Very disagreeable intelligence has been received here respecting the state of the wool and cloth trade iu Eng land. According to this information, the German wool, which has within these few months been shipped as con signments to England, may he expected soon to come bark to the continent. We entertain, however, no fear that the German wool merchants, as proprietors, will be injured by this circumstance, for previous experience has made them extremely cautious in the choice of their commission agents, and we do not hear that any of them are involved in the catastrophe. But the crisis may be expected to have a ome influence on the price of the article with us, since, where it has been sent, that price has been so fluc tuating and unfixed, that it is impossible to find any ap proximating rule for estimating it. It is likewise to be expected, that in consequenc e of the distress of the English cloth manufacturers, the continent will be overrun with their goods, especially as the English are extremely sus ceptible of that sort of panic alarm, which, at the com mencement of critical relations, makes goods be thrown away. Foreigners will avail themselves of these circum stances; and as, by the command of cash, they can buy cheap in England, we shall consequently be able to pur chase, in the great markets for British merchandise in Germany, English cloth at so low a rate, that notwith standing the inferior quality of the manufacture, it still will appear a good bargaia."Nm.
