DINNER TO MR. COBDEN, AT MADRID. On the 14th instant a grand banquet was given in honour of Mr. Cobden, at Madrid, by the members of the " Spanish Commercial Association." The guests assembled at half-past six, among whom were D. Alvaro Flores Estrada, the Spanish economist ; the Duke of Sotomayer, Spanish Ambassador to the English Court ; and numerous other persons of distinction. Counts Santa Olalla, Gonzala, and Moren y Pena Aguyac were pre vented from attending by different causes. The chair was taken by S. Alvara, having on his right Mr. Cob den, Duke de Sotomayer acting as vice-president. The health of Mr. Cobden was proposed by .the President, after a short and emphatic speech, in which h . e alluded to the services rendered by Mr. Cobden to his country. Mr. Cobden then rose and spoke in English, as that lan guage was familiar to nearly all present We give his speech at length : Gentlemen, it is with the deepest gratitude that I ac cept this manifestation of your sympathy ; I accept it as a proof of your approbation of the principles of free trade, and of the means resorted to by the leaders of the League in England. We stood up, gentlemen, as the advocates of free trade, not in a party spirit, but in the common interest of all ; and we obtained our end solely by moral means, which deserve, I hope, the praise of the honourable men of every coun t r y. F rom t h e very beginning of the struggle we n ever en t er t a i ne d t h e slightest idea of having recourse to physical force ; we placed our confidence in the strength of reason and ar gument. Our only weapon was the pen, our loudest artillery the voice of our orators. We did not make proselytes by force, but by conviction. For seven years a fierce struggle was k ep t up amongst twenty-seven millions of people, without shedding a single drop of blood. The battl e was l ong an d fi erce ; b ut once gained, the victory is eternal. All present are no doubt well aware of the precise object we had in view in our struggle for free trade. W e had, gen tl e men, a great principle in view. We demanded for every Englishman the right of exchanging the produce of his labour for that of every quarter of the globe. We demanded the suppression of all protective duties. We said to our Government, you must not concede protection to this or to that branch of industry to the detriment of another. Equal justice to all classes is the great principle pro claimed by us. We demand for England the right of buying Spanish corn and wool on the same terms as similar productions in England ; we propose for the sugars of Cuba the same right enjoyed by those of Jamaica. We demand for the agriculturists the right of buying articles of Spanish manufacture which they may stand in need of; on the same footing as if they were British produce. What we advocated has become the dominating policy of the people of Great Britain. Gentlemen, the cause of free trade is not confined to one country alone, it is the cause of humanity and civilisation all over the globe. And where may I hope to meet with greater s ymp a thy th an i n thi s ill ustr i• ous capital of the Iberian Peninsula ? To no country does free trade offer greater advantages than to Spain ; to no country has nature been so prodigal in her gifts. Spain produces what other lands must acquire by labour and by industry. Commerce is the exchange of articles of equivalent value, and the nation that exports is, like- Iwise, in the necessity of importing. There are indivi duals in every country who say, "We must produce svithin our frontiers all that we stand in need of, and we will be then independent of the stranger." If Provident , i bad meant such to be the ease, it would have framed the earth on a far different plan, and given equal advan tages of soil and clime to every nation. My country, for instance, would have been gifted with the vine and the olive, and other blessings denied to us, and other countries would possess iron and coal mines which so largely compensate with us the absence of other na piral productions. But no, Providence has in its wisdom 0. ,. : ,; gr , e d p ecu li ar productiors to each land, so that oatioiis in acquiring the comforts of life might learn to live united with each other in the bonds of harmony and :If peace, lam confident, gentlemen, that, before long, thil; great nation will have emancipated its commerce from th restrictions which, but a short tin e since, we i g h e d u p oi : te cornmerc , ! of my own country. ot her pagc of you h r !!istory will be filled, !Ike the immor tal pa;e which records ,fiat three centuries ago a great man left your shores to discover a new hemisphere. You must not accuse me of dctraxting from the glory of that great man, when I - , ay that in my opinion the estahliii ment of tree trade will confer venter benefits mi your country than the discovery of America. The genius of Columbus procured to your country a large continent exclusively inhabited by savage tribes ; free trade will open to your enterprise a civilised world, and every nation will press forward to offer you the various pro ductions of thir industry in exehange for those of your favoured and productive soil. I conclude, gentlemen, said Mc. Cobden, in good Castilliau s " by drinking to the universal adoption of free trade, the surest guarantees of the peace of nations." The meeting was then adreqsed by several Spanish menu` nts and nobles, advocating the general pri nc ipl es of free trade, Ind especially the liberty of discussion; at the conclusion the 1 , - :Petiag expressed its gratification a the presence of its illustr:qus guest. A ROYAL BULL FIGHT. MADRID, CICT. 17.—The Garrotte of this morning says not a word about the amnesty. En revanche, how ever, the Grand Bull-fight came off yesterday, and no doubt the nation will be content. The Queen, accompanied by her husband and the rest of the Royal family, entered her balcony at a quarter to three o'clock, in the Casa do Panadicia of the Plaz t Mayor, or Great Square, and seated herself under a magnificent canopy of crimson velvet embroi dered in gold. Two o'clock had been the hour named by her Majesty for the spectacle to commence. At half past two a compiny of halberdiers, dressed in ancient costume, made their appearance ; and, to the souhd of clarions and drums, took their places in the space in front of, and immediately under, the balcony set apart for the royal personages. The position occu pied by these domestic guardians of the Royal person, might, no doubt, be one of high honour, but it was by no :means one to be envied, nor was it without its danger. Placed outside the barrier which separated the spectators from the arena, they were exposed to an encounter with the furious animals whose tortures were to afford amuse ment to the young Queen and her sister ; and as eti quette prevented them from turning their backs on their royal mistress, their danger was still the greater. As the code of royal etiquette is not, however, so cruel as to be unredeemed by some traits of tenderness, the halber diers enjoyed the enviable privilege of being permitted, in extreme cases, to turn round for a moment when they felt the bull's horns at their back, and defend their lives with the lance of their halberds—the only weapon al lowed them, The Queen's appearance in the balcony was the signal for a burst of martial music, which continued until she and those immediately about her had taken their seats. The Princes, Spanish and French, were dressed en hoisrgeois—black dress coats; and on their breasts flashed diamond stars. The Queens and Infanta were simply babited, and with few ornaments. They wore light bonnets a la Francaise, and held in their hands small parasols to protect them from the sun, which had just begun to shine from an almost unclouded sky. In a short time afterwards some stir was noticed amidst the crowd collected near the arch through which there is a passage to the Calle Toledo. Places were gradually made by the attendants, and then entered four very handsome carriag e s, each drawn by six horses, eovered over with the richest and most massive, though not to an English eye the most tasteful, caparisons. From their lofty crests nodded high plumes of different colours, designating the noble houses to which they be longed. They were the state-carriages of four grandees —namely, the Count of Altamira, the Duke of Abrantes, the Duke of Medina Celi, and the Duke of Osuna. The horses were of the pure Andalusian breed, and were certainly beautiful creatures. These exhibitions are, from an ancient period, held in the Plaza Mayor, the grand square of the capital ; 'whereas the ordinary bull fights take place in the loca lity constructed expressly for the purpose, the Plaza de Toros. The caballeros are brought to the ground in the state carriages of their respective padrinos, with a long train of domestics, habited in ancient costume, and wearing the colours of the houses they belong to. They are then and there conducted in front of the Sovereign, to whom they are presented in due form. They then mount on borseback, and the spectacle begins. The caballeros of yesterdayiwere—R. Fernan des, of the Guard of Halberdiers ' • padrino, the Count of Altamira ; he wore a cost ume o f the time of Austrian dynasty, his colours, sky-blue and white ; the padrino wore a court dress ; D. Antonio Romero ; padrino, the Duke of Abrantes, costume of the same period, colour, green ; padrino, the maestrante uniform ; D. Frederico Varela y Ulloa, padrino the Duke of Medina Celi, cos tume blue and white ; padrino the maestrante uniform ; D. Jose Cabanas ; padrino, the Duke of Osuna, costume red and yellow ; padrino the uniform of a colonel of cavalry. The caballero of the Duke of Abrantes is a lieutenant of the Regiment of Maria Christina ; and tnat of the Duke of Osuna an officer of the Halberdiers. After the carriages came, led by grooms dressed in the richest livery, twenty eight horses, at the rate of seven f, r each carriage. The harness of the horses was of the most gorgeous description. A complete band of toreros (bull-fighters), engaged to protect the caballeros , en plaza, accompanied each carriage on foot. All this train made the circuit of the square, the angles of which bad been rounded off for the occasion with temporary structures, until they came in front of the royal balcony, when each caballero and his padrino descended, and made a profound obeisance to her Majesty. They again entered the carriages, and having once more made the circuit of the place, they disappeared in a direction dif ferent from that they entered. About hall-an-bour then elapsed ; after which a mew spectacle made its appearance in the same place 'where the carriages had entered. Seven King;-at- Arms, with their pages and esquires sustaining sae shields of the house of each grandee, entered, 6 ", e Icorting each caball ero en p l aza, an d f o ll owe d b y 2 n respective bands of toreros. They again pl ace d themselves in front of the r o y a l b a l cony, an d b owe d low.. The cab a lleros,with th e except i on of one who was flung fro m his horse the nunnent he mounted, taluted her Majesty on h e ,t back. The torer os k ne lt, land bent their foreheads too musicians, d resse d i n grand cos ground. In a dditi on t o *he above, a number of musiei tame, followed th e cava li ers, and with their martial "Familia seemed to ani ma t e t h e i r courage. The picadors, ex bull-lighters, armed with lan ces , and on horses, fol lowed also. The key of the stall where thi bull is kept ready for Ebe combat is in possession of whoever the authority play be that presides. On this occasion the care of the key was entrusted to the Queen. it is flung from the b u ledvy with much grave cereznony, At the moment the Qut. en delivered the key, a multitude of pigeons, their /locks adorned with gay coloured ri.hbon s , su'lder.lY rose fror. each corner of the place ; and their flight was hailed with shouts of applause from at least 30,000 spectators. The cavaliers then took their stations on horseback the stall was opened, and a brave bull leaped forth. He bounded in in the first exultation of freedom, and made the circuit of the square in a few minutes. He then stopped for a space in the centre ,• tossed his head, and surveyed—with an eye in which terror and rage were mingled—the surrounding multitude, whose mad shouts rose higher every moment at the ga llant bearing of the noble brute. The rigidness of etiquette melted away like frostwork before the sun the moment the animal appeared. The alguazils, who were stationed in front of her Majesty's box with their faces turned to her, forgot their respect, scampered away, and, in their haste, were unconscious that they not unrarely exhibited not the front part of their persons, even under the very eyes of royalty. The ring was cleared in a moment, and the ground was left alone to the bull and his antagonists. The cavliers—whose only arm, I should have said, was a short light spear with a steel point about five or six inches long—did not quail. Their spurs were dashed into the horse's flanks, and they bounded into the centre of the square. The ardour was equal, but the glory was not so. They poised their lances, and attempted to dash them at the bull. One was thrown from his horse at the very first encounter, and another fell under the animal. They were both obliged to re tire from the arena, having received contusions from the fall, of too severe a character to allow their remain ing any longer. Two cavaliers only remained at their post, D. Antonio Romero, Lieutenant of the Maria Christina Regiment, whose padrino was the Duke of Abrantes; his assistants were the Chiclaneros and Labi, two eminent toreros; the other, Cabanas, the godson of the Duke of Osuna, a young man twenty-five years of age, an officer in the Halberdiers. Well and bravely did these two champions do their work. The last-men tioned planted with great skill and force three lances in the bull; the last blow was mortal; but, at the moment it was given, his horse got frightened, became com pletely unmanageable, and, at length, flung his rider, who was compelled to retire from the arena, and was carried off in the arms of the attendants. His wounds are of a serious character. _ _ _ POOR REMOVAL ACT. The Poor Law Commissioners have issued a circular, dated the 20th instant, stating that they have consulted the Attorney and Solicitor -General on the construction of the late Removal Act, and give as the result:— I. 4 That the proviso to the Ist section of the 9 and 10 Viet., c. 66, which sets forth the exceptions to the principal enactments that are to be excluded in the com putation of time, is not retrospective in its operation, so as to apply to cases where the five years' residence was complete before the statute. 2: " That an interval between the completion of the five years residence and the application for the warrast of removal filled up by one of the exceptions contained in the proviso will not prevent the operation of the statute in restraining the removal of the pauper who had resided for the specified time. 3. " That orders of removal obtained previous to the passing of the Act, but not then executed by the re moval of the paupers, cannot now be executed in cases where the Ist and 2nd section would have prevented them from being granted if the applications were made subsequently to the passing of the Act. 4. " That the 2nd Section does not apply to the cases of widows whose husbands died before the passing of the Act. 5. " That the 4th section does apply to persons who became chargeable before the passing of the Act, and continued to do so till the application for the warrant. 6. " That the statute applies equally to the removal of persons born in Scotland, Ireland, or the Channel Islands, as to persons having settlements in England, so as to override pro tanto the provisions of the 8 and 9 Viet., c. 117." As to the effect of the first proviso, so far as it relates to the time before the passing of the Act, the simple fact of the actual residence of the pauper is alone to be con sidered, and consequently that no time during which the party may have been in the receipt of relief is to be omitted from the calculation of the term of residence, while any absence during that period, such as that caused by an imprisonment, or a residence in an hospital, is to be treated as an interruption of the continuous residence to which the statute applies. With reference to the second question, the Commis sioners consider that the principle of the constructiun must equally apply to intervals in the time during which the period of residence is comprised, so that for example, a residence of three years in a parish may be united with a subsequent residence of two years in the same parish, though in the interval the party may have been out of the parish in prison for several months, or serving her Majesty as a soldier for several years ; this obser vation is, however, to be qualified by the supposition that the absence is one which is protected by proviso. In the application of this statute no difference exists whether the cause arise between two parishes in the same union, or in different unions. Romero was now left alone of the four cavaliers, and, in truth, he was the hero of the day. His lances were most beautifully aimed, and most accurately planted ; his management of his beautiful and fiery charger was so consummate, his bearing so graceful, his coolness in encountering the furious animal before him, so perfect, and so unusual in a mere amateur, as to excite the most frantic enthusiasm amongst the concourse. Nothing could give you a just idea of the prolonged shouting of the ►ast multitude. Four bulls fell by his hand—two of which were, howe►er, to be relie►ed from the death agony by the cachete, or knife used for that purpose. The fourth, before receiving the deathblow, made a rush at him, and placing his horns low under the horse's belly, actually lifted into the air the noble animal and his rider. The cavalier fell under the horse, into whose entrails the horns had en tered, and both rolled together on the ground. A shout of terror at the danger of the cavalier, and of applause at the brave act of the bull, rent the air. It was for a moment believed that Romero was either killed or dan gerously hurt, but tranquillity was at once restored, when, in a minute or two, both horse anti rider rose from the ground, the rider seated as firmly in his sad dle as if he had never been disturbed from it. Another shout hailed this new proof of excellent horseman,hip. But the cry of admiration was beyond all description, when the next moment the spectators beheld the bull full dead, i❑ the very act of preparing for another bound. This attack on the horse had only been a desperate effort of expiring strength, and was made at the very moment he recei►ed the last lance of the cavalier. This was the last display made by the calleros en plaza. Romero retired with some slight bruises, and was again and again saluted with the waning of hand kerchiefs from the balconies, and the shouts of the mul titude. Tne professional bull-fighters then continued the combat. Montes, notwithstanding his recent wound, never conducted himself better than yesterday. llia play of skill with the sixth bull was most artist-like and iienittiful. The others lost nothing of their reputation. Eleven bulls were killed, and the usual proportion of horses. The spectacle ended at six o'clock, when the Queen snd royal family quitted their balcony. It may be necessary to say that the horses mounted by the caballeros were of the best kind, and it is said were given by the Queen for the occasion. The animals em ployed in ordinary bull fights are of the worst possible _ deLription. The duty of professional buil-tighter while the caballeros were engatzed, was to attract th attention of the bulls, and assist them when hail pre, , sed They did their duty well. The halconie:i of the hou-a-;, were hung with splendid tapestry of various colours ; and with the immense multitude—;tot less than .30,00 U were present—state carriages and retainers of the gran dees, picturesque costume of the attendants, alguaz;ls, halberdiers, pages, esquires—all presented a spectacle of a rare and most exciting character. The last time such a display was made was at the ceremony of the Jura, or the taking; thy oath of allegi ance to the Princess of Asturias, now Isabella 11. The Queen and her sister looked well yesterday. When her Majesty and her husband presented them selves in front of the balcony, many vivas were heard and handkerchiefs waved. When the Duke de Mont pansier and his wife showed themselves, not a viva was uttered, nor a salute _ returned. The son of Loui., Philippe must know from yesterday's experience that Spaniards, when they are well pleas,d, can be ac noisily enthusiastic as other people. It excites compass':on to witness tlie desperate efforts of this poor young man to catch a stray salute, but in vain. The fact of the papers and letters from Portugal not having reached here, renders the supposition probable that the districts rear the Spanish frontier are in in surrection. A ,grand ball was given at the palace last night. The usual persons were invited. The French Ambassador gives a ball to-morrow night, at which it is believed her Majesty will be pres r,t. It appears that presents are showered by the bushel, on the active but inferior agents of the Montpensier marriage, by M. Bresson. Musical boxes, watch-chains, shirt-buttons, are sent about in great profusion. Louis Philippe, and his man-of•all-work in Madrid, tnu,t have a curious idea of the Spanish character. They look upon Spain as navigators do—some unknown and savage land, whose inhabitants it is necessary to soothe by presents of glass beads, painted feathers, bits of looking-glass, &c. The invitations to yesterday's bull-fight came from the palace. To-morrow they proceed from the Ayun tiamento ; and the last is entirely open to the public.— Times. M. OPENING THE PORTS. SCARCITY AND DEARTH OF FOOD. The Provost of Pollokshaws .has received the follow. ing letter, acknowledging the receipt of the memoria of the inhabitants of that burgh to Lord John Russell, praying for the opening of the ports, and prohibition of distillation from grain : " Downing-street, Oct 16, 1846. " Sir,—l am desired by Lord John Russell to acknow ledge the receipt of your lettor of the 25th ult., and of the memorial of the inhabitants of Pollokshaws which accompanied it. " Lord John Russell is deeply sensible of the calamity which now presses so severely on the poorer classes of the United Kingdom, owing to the almost total failure of the potato crop ; but he trusts that the measures which the Government will adopt, and the exertions of proprietors on their own estates, will tend very greatly to mitigate the distress. " I have also been instructed_ to inform you, that it is not the intention of the Government to prohibit the distillation from grain. —I have the honour to be, Sir, your obedient servant. (Signed) " R. W. GREY. " William Hector, Esq., Provost of Pollokshaws." —Glasgow Argus. MADAME D'ARBLAY'S DIARY AND LETTERS. VOL. VL—Besides the royal, noble, and distinguished personages lately alluded to as figuring in the sixth volume of this interesting work, will be found the follow ing:—Napoleon, when First Consul ; the Duchesses of Kent and Cumberland, the Duke of Wellington, Lords Harrington, Melbourne, IValsingharn, Chesterfield, Howe, St. Vincent, Beaulieu and Aylesbury; Ladies Albinia Cumberland, Henry Fitzgerald, Augusta Low ther, Melbourne, Hates, Charlotte Bruce, Courtown, Charlotte Bellasys, Inchequin, and Templetown; the Bishops of Exeter and Salisbury; Pitt, Fox, Canning, Erskine, Burke, Wyndham, Sheridan, Warren Hastings, Wilberforce, Dundas, Frederic and Dudley North; Sir Sydney Smith and Sir Lucas Pepys; Generals Burrard, Harecourt and Manners; Drs.

FLOODING AT B UCKING LI A ht-PALACE.-At the Westminster Court of Sewers, on Friday, Mr. Blore, the architect employed to carry into effect the improvements and alterations in Buckingham Palaee, attended the Court, at the instance of the Commissioners of Woods and Forests, to represent to the Commissioners of Sewers that, during the late heavy rains, the King's Scholar's Pond Sewer, the only one for the service of Buckingham Palace, was so completely charged with water to the crown of the arch, that all the water pois ing from the Palace was returned to it, causing the greatest inconvenience by the inundation, and impeding the works now in progress. He was, therefore, instructed by the, Commissioners of Woods and Forests to apply for leave to lay down an independent drain Mow the present one to be available in case of a recurrence of the heavy rains, so that by the opening of the flood gates the excess of surface water may be dischargal into the ornamental watt r in St. James's-park. By the adop Lion of this coarse, in times of heavy rains, a drain age of four feet lower than that possessed by the pre nt means would be effected. The Chairman remarked that this was a special court, and that it was unusual to take any other business than that of which notice had been given. Mr. More urged the necessity of itn tre-diate proceeding, as the operations of the works had been very consid,rably inkrrupted. After a discussion, in which several Hon. C9minis.innet s tool: part, the application of Mr. Blore was granted. A re port was received from the surveyor, on the state of do , sewage in Grosvenor-square, North Audley-street, and Brook-street. The report was received, and new works were ordered to be done, the estimated cost of which amounts to 3,7361. In the course of the reading of the above -named report, it was stated that the sewers in that district had existed for upwards of one hundred years, but that the west side of Grosvenor-square, up to this tim e , rema i ne d ent i re l y uuprovided for. - PARISH BATHS AND WASH HOUSE3.--The paro chial authorities of St. Marylebone and St. George-in the-Ea-t have resolved upon erecting baths and wash houses for the poor. THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 26, 1846. from the field before mentioned), and he had tumbled in in trying to get it out. On the same day, Saturday, he sold his coat at Sleaford, and in the pocket was the fellow glove (quite wet) to the one found in the hat taken out of the river by Mr. Botherway. Under all these circum stances there can be no doubt that Healey had murdered the woman by drowning her; but, as he bad anticipated justice by committing suicide, and as there was no direct evidence of the manner in which the girl got into the water, the jury returned a verdict of "Found drowned." What makes the case more remarkable is the fact, that it was in open day that the deed was done, and within ten yards of a hovel in which Mr. Botherway and some of his men must have been within a quarter of an hour of the girl being drowned, which hovel is close to the river's edge. From the Circumstance of Healey having appeared wet on the Sunday evening, it is conjectured that he contem plated suicide by drowning, but was prevented by the boatmen. SPORTING. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Those who took my advice for the last meeting at Newmarket must have profited considerably thereby, as my fancies for the Cesarewitch, Clearwell, Prender gast, and Steppingley Stakes carried me through trium phantly—not one missing the mark. I have good rea son, therefore, for anticipating a large portion of success in the meeting which commences to-day. I shall dis pose of the subject in as few words as possible. The winner of the Cambridgeshire, in consequence of the late rains, will spring from the outside division —most probably one of the following :—Evenus, Bst 91b—Garry Owen, Bst—Kesheng, ist 101b—Peasant, Est—Sister to Pergularia, sst 101 b—and Tour de Force, sst 101 b. Of these, Evenus, Kesheng, 'and Tour de Force are the best ; to this trio I look confidently for the winner. Should Van Tromp go for the Criterion, which it seems is not very likely, he will win to a dead certainty, otherwise Mr. Mostyn will pocket the stake. The Glasgow Stakes will produce an exciting strug gle between the Goodwood and Danebury stables, which I should not be surprised to see end in favour of the latter, with Mathematician. The matches, I presume, will come off as follows: Missed Stays will beat Ferina. Ennui will beat Physalis. Discontent will beat Esther. Bishop's cob will beat Secundus. Lady Wildair will heat Remorse. Roper's Daughter will beat Bro. to Nottingham. Ruff will beat Chance. Vert-Vert will beat Discontent. Oakley will beat Wolfdog. Captain Phebus will beat Paultons. Eiselle will beat Bethphage. Leopard will beat Lycurgus. Idas will beat Traverser. Miss Sarah will beat Traverser. Conspiracy will beat Brocardo. Alarm will beat Sorella. Apricot will beat Atropos. Sir Francis will beat Secundus. Physalis will beat Isis. Sotades will beat Conspiracy. Free Lance will beat Paragon. Tarantella filly will beat Miss Whip filly. Cynynion will beat Esther. Jumble will beat Captain Phebus. Humdrum will beat Wolfdug. Idas will beat Baron. Vanity will beat Phoenix filly. Jack Cade will beat Mentor. Free Gift will win the 100 sovs. stakes. Saddle or Extra the 50 sovs. stakes. Crozier the 200 soya. stakes. In haste, your obedient servant, THE SPIRIT OF THE TURF. WILLS. BISTIOP OF Sr. ASAPH.—The will of the Right Rev. William Carey, D.D., Bishop of the Welsh Diocese of St. Asaph, was proved in the Prerogative Court of Can terbury, on the 21st inst. He has left the whole of his property real and personal, to his widow, and appointed her, together with the Venerable Archdeacon 11. C. Jones, the executors. It bears date the 29th of March, 1843. His personal estate was estimated at 40,0001. The late Venerable and Learned Prelate died at the age of 77. He entered upon holy orders in 1802, and was ma le a Prebendary of York, and, in 1809, was installed as Prebendary of Westminster. On the translation of Dr. Pelham to the see of Lincoln, in 1820, Dr. Carey was consecrated Bishop of Exeter, the value of which was 2,700/. ; and in 1830, on the death of Dr. Luxmore, be was translated to St. Asaph, with an income of 5,3001. The see at the present time remains vacant, the Bishop of Bangor having dec!lined accepting it, or uniting it with that of Bangor. MUNIFICENT BEQUESTS. —The parish authorities of Lambeth ha"e had left to them a clear sum of 1,5001. by the late Mrs. Edridge of Kennington-place, the inte rest to be applied for the benefit and comfort of suet poor persons of that parish who are of tha age of sixty years and upwards. This benevolent lady has also bequeathed a like sum of 1,5001. to each of the fol lowing valuable institutions in that quarter, viz.— The School for the Indigent Blind, near the Obelisk ; the Deaf and I)urnb Asylum, Old Kent-road ; and Bedl,m II(9)ital, Lambeth-road. The legacies to be paid free of duty. She is stated to have died possessed of persona! and funded property amounting to 3.5,0001, find it is probable would have extended her munificence to oth,r charitable objects, as her will was not com pleted to the full extent of her testamentary intentions; fr, although it was properly executed, she had left open yle disposal of the residue to be made by her at. some r'utt.re period by a separate document, but which she never put in force. CAPTURE EXTRAORDINARY.—On Monday week nforination was received by the Brighton police : that .wo men, who had absconded from Liverpool, and were charge with fraud, had arrived in Brighton, and were about to sail by the Fame packet for Dieppe ; but the police haviog no certain information of the men, and no particulars of the charge, suffered them to depart by the steamer which left the harbour on Tuesday morning. The packet had got half way over, and the me n , no doubt, congratul a t e d th emse l ves on having effected their escape, when some accident occurred to the machinery, and the weather being exceedingly boisterous, the cap tain determined on returning to England. On learning this fact, Mr. Chase, the chiet officer of police , directed Superintendent White to proceed to Kingston and watch , he men as they came ashore, so as to know where to find them if necessary. White proceeded to Kingston accordingly, and about three o'clock the packet came into harbour. The passengers were forwarded to Brighton by an omnibus, and White, who was in plain clothes, placed himself in the vehicle near the two men in ques tion, and came with them to Brighton. On the way he took occasion to recommend them to a public house, and on their arrival here kindly showed them to the Jolly Fisherman. On Wednesday, Mr. Searle, of the firm of 1{: eve and Searle, solicitors, of Liverpool, accompanied by an officer, arrived, with a warrant signed by Mr. Commissioner Perry of the Bankruptcy Court, for the apprehension of James Maw and William Chapman, the names of the parties in question. White accompanied his bro!her officer to the Jolly Fisherman, and there found the two men, who were forthwith lodged in the Town Hall for the night, and on Thursday White pro ceeded with them to Liverpool.—Brighton Guardian. WRECK OF LORD MOUNTCASHEL'S YACHT WANDERING SPIRIT.—On Saturday evening the beau tiful yacht, Wandering Spirit, lately built by Mr. Wheeler for the Earl of Mountcashel, as a present for his son, Lord Kilworth, was wrecked off Kinsale har bour. She had sailed from the Cove of Cork on Saturday, for Kinsale, having the Countess Mountcashel and the Ladies Moore on board, who were about spending some days in the latter town. The yacht made a very pleasant trip, the day being remarkably fine, and arrived off Kinsale har bour at about five o'clock in the evening ; but on rounding the Hangman's point. a headland stretching out at the mouth of the harbour, the captain inquired of the pilot, whether he was giving the point room enough. The pilot replied that the yacht was then in lt) fathoms water. The captain immediately took the lead, and was in the act of heaving it, when the yacht struck on a reef of rocks. Such was the force with which the vessel struck, in consequence of the great headway she was making, that she was raised fully a couple of feet from her water line. The boats were immediately lowered, and Lady Mountcashel and family were safely conveyed to land. Shortly after, in spite of all the efforts of cap tain and crew, the yacht filled in and rolled on her beam ends, in which position she now lies in deep water. On Sunday morning, Sir IL Pigot, Rear-Admiral, hav ing received intelligence of the disaster, sent the Myrmi don steamer, with a number of ship carpenters, to the scene of the wreck. It is thought that the Wandering Spirit will be totally lost. She is a beautiful schooner yacht of 140 tons, built by Mr. J. Wheeler, of this city, and is valued at over 3,000/. Mr. Wheeler hastened to Kinsale, yesterday, on receiving account of the wreck. Cork Southern Reporter. A parochial clergyman, who anticipates much distress amongst the labouring poor, mechanics, and peasantry, during the approaching winter, and early spring, from the failure of the potato crop—begs leave to suggest, to such 'of the more opulent classes as can feel for the wants of their poor " brethren in the flesh," the liberal distribution of Patna rico amongst them ; to• gether with copies of the following receipts for dressing it, in productive and palatable ways. 1. Put llb of good rice into five pints of cold water, and as soon as they shall boil, set the saucepan where the water and rice shall simmer, gently, for one hour ; then add two pints of milk ; stir the whole, and let it simmer another hour ; when done, stir in *lb. of treacle, and serve it up. Where milk cannot be procured, water may be used, instead of milk—and to make a change, the rice may be flavoured with onion and salt, instead of treacle. 2. If rice he preferred in a drier state, it may be thus pre pared :—Boil llb of rice in four quarts of water, until it be quite tender—then pour off the water, and cover the saucepan for the rice to steam, and serve it up. Either of the above receipts will furnish a palatable meal for four or six persons, adcording to age.—Sheriorne Journal. AN INFANT POISONED BY ITS Ntittsn.--On Monday , last. an inquest was held at Codnor Park, in this county' Lefore Mr. Whiston, jun., coroner, ou the body of Sarah Wardle, a child aged four months, whose death took place on Saturday isiorning last, from the effects of laudanum administered the day before by her nurse girl, a child named Elizabeth Parker, aged twelve years. From the evidence which was taken before the jury, it appeared that the nurse girl had sent another girl for a pennyworth of laudanum on Friday morning, and that she had poured half of it down the child's throat ; and in about half an hour afterwards she took it home, and the mother or the child aiked the nurse whether she had given the chill anything, to which she replied she had only given it two teaspoons full of ale at the brewhouse of Mr. Whysall. The child appearing to get much worse medical aid was sent for, ar.d on arriving at the house whore the child was lying, after !riling several in ,uirie a, the nurse girl again repeated having given th.) ale, but denied having given it arything until after the child's death, when she admitted having. sent a child for some laudanum in a small bottle, and hawing p 'tired part of the c,mtents down the child's thiout, ami . ;llso having washod off o,e label from the bottle which contained the word poison upon it. The child also told one et the w4nessfs, who was examined, that a companion of her's, oho was a nurse-maid, had bought a pennyworth of laudanum and had given the same to the child she was nursing over night, and that it was dead the next twirl:lug. The jury, after ~!ons ultinga short time, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder" against Elizabeth Parker, as it appeared from the evidence of the medical gentleman that the death was occaniont•d from laudanum ; whereupon the coronor is- Stied Us warrant fur the committal of the nurse-girl for trial at the next assizes.—Derby Reporter. FLOUR FRoll CALCUTTA, TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Tayistock Hotel, Friday Evening. SIR,—In the third column of the third page of your publication of this evening, I observe a paragraph re garding the importation of East Indian flour, which you appear to consider as something remarkable. For your information I b2g to inform you that it is by no means novel or extraordinary. Flour has been imported into this country from Calcutta to a great extent during the last eighteen years, being the produce of the " Calcutta Strand Flour-mills," and recently of the " Cossipore Establishment." It is not, however, adapted fur htniT;n consumption, but ex2lusively employed as " sizing " for manufacturing purp Res. Whilst on the subject, I may remark, that wheat to any extent might be imported from the rich and feaile Tallies of the Ganges were the ports of this country o i .en to its free admission.—l have the honour to subscribe myself, Sir, your most obedient servant, AN EAST INDIA MERCHANT. COMMERCIAL TRAVELLERS' SCHOOLS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Commercial Travellers' Schools, 51, Cheapside, October, 1846. which Sin,—From the liv e ly you exhibit o n all occasions to pr omo t e e d ucat i on , I venture to urge p upon your attention the f o ll ow i ng out li ne o f an istitu don, now being for me d f or th e purpose o f clothing, maintaining, and educating, the orphans and children of deceased and necessitous commercial travellers. This institution had its origin at a meeting of a few commercial travellers in the month of July, 1845, who being deeply impressed with the necessity for such an institution, they at once resolved upon exerting them selves, and their influence with others, in order to found one which should be creditable to the founders and beneficial to the unprovidet children of their necessitous brethren. Their first applications for subscriptions were directed to their fellow travellers, who, ere six months had elapsed, subscribed 3,0001. and upwards in aid of the projected schools. Such an exhibition of zeal on the part of the travellers, and earnest of their intention to unite in raising and supporting this institution, was not without its beneficial effects upon the principals of the commercial firms, as is testified by the books of the society, in which the names of nine firms, who have subscribed one hundred guineas each, twelve who have subscribed fifty guineas each, and ten who have sub scribed twenty guineas each, already appear. In the month of July, 1846, (being twelve months only after the suggestion for the formation of the schools), the amount subscribed was 6,0001., the only expenses which the society had incurred, were those of rent, printing, and stationery ; their secretaries, managers, canvassers, and collectors, were all honorary and zealous officers. I mention these facts, not as boasting of a large fund collected at a little expense, for you will be fully aware that until the fund be increased three or fourfold the benefits of this institution must be limited ; but I refer to them as being an encouraging omen of what the tra vellers and their principals intend to do, and as an as surance that what they have generously begun will be liberally supported to maturity. At present no public canvassing has taken place, no extraneous power has been called into action, but the individuals who first pro jected the institution, aided by their fellow-travellers, have effected these satisfactory results—results produced by voluntary means, and carrying with them a full assurance that they will be followed by the speedy fell of an everlasting monument to record the benevolence of the travellers of the United Kingdom, and the generosity of their principals. I would also call your Attention to the principles upon which the projectors of the institution are laying its foundation. The schools will be open to the children of both sexes between the ages of seven and eleven, and they will remain upon the foundation until the age of fourteen. The children of parents of every religious denomination will be alike eligible—the peculiar tenets of their p arents ' rel i gious professions will be strictly ob served, and their influence upon the child in no manner interfered with in the course of instruction. With View to p ro d uce concord, and avoid all distinction of religious profession, the Church of England has been agreed upon as the public place of worship to be attended by all. Upon this foundation it is intended that all shall be taught Christianity and morality, without any interference with th e p ecu li ar sec t w h ic h their parents may profess. All will be eligible who shall be found deserving. With such liberal principles for the foundation, with such zealous operatives as the commercial travellers for its strength, and with so praiseworthy an object in view, nothing, I believe, can retard or prevent the prosperity of this benevolent undertaking, so long as the traveller s continue to exercise their u n it e d en d eavours in its behalf. The Committee of Management are now directing their attention to obtaining the patronage of the royal family and nobility, t o th e f orma ti on o f canvassing com mittees throughmit the kingdom, and the arrangement of a set of rules to carry out the design of the institution. Their anxiou s en d eavour i s t o o bt ain a sufficient fund to distribute the benefits of the schools as soon as possible Apologising for the length of this communication, I remain, Sir, your very obedient servant, GEORGE LAWRENCE, Hon. Sec. LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAIL WAY. On Friday a meeting of shareholders in the London and Blackwell Railway was held at the George and Vulture Tavern, Cornhill, for the purpose of considering what measures ought to;be adopted f or i mprov i ng the position and prospects of the railway. Major Richardson was called to the chair. Mr. BRYSON, through whose instrumentality the meeting had been got up, and who represented the inte rests of some very extensive shareholders, stated at some length the considerations which had induced him to call his brother shareholders together. He would strongly advise the shareholders to make an offer of the London and Blackwell line to the Eistorn Counties or the Lon don and North-Western, and he had every reason to believe that, whatever proposals they made to those com panies, would be favourably entertained. Indeed, he thought it proper to inform the meeting that he (Mr. B.) had had an interview on the subject with Mr. y the chairman o f t h e London and North-WesGlternnn, Company, and from what passed on the occasion he felt justified in saying that the London and North-Western were very anxious to obtain the London and Bliekwall line. He concluded by strongly recommending the shareholders to take the affairs of the company into their own hands, and no longer to trust to the efforts of the present directors. Several other gentlemen then addressed the meeting, each succeeding speaker taking substantially the same view of the matter as that which had been taken by Mr. Bryson. Eventually a motion was made and una nimously agreed to that a committee be appointed to wait on the directors, in order to institute in - vestigation into th e state of the company's affair a rigid and to ask an expl ana ti on on various points of their conduct, respecting which the shareholders are dissatisfied • and iu the event o f t h e directors refusing to furnish the de- COURT OF ALDERMEN. THE GLOUCESTER, ABERYSTWITH, AND CENTRAL WALES RAILWAY. A Court was held on Saturday for the purpose of hearing and determing upon a complaint made against brokers of the City of London. The proceedings, which occupied the Court till six o'clock, attracted a number of gentlemen who have been engaged in the railway share market. Alderman COPELAND presented the following memo rial to the Court:— " The humble petition of Joseph Franklin Rose, of 60, Stamford- street, in the parish of Christchurch, in the country of Surrey, Sh owet h , " That on or about the 10th day of October, 1845, your memorialist employed Messrs. Rochas and Son, of No. 6, Bank-chambers. B artholomew -lane, sworn bro kers, to purchase for your memorialist 100 shares in the Gloucester, Aberyatwith, and Central Wales Railway, at the then market price, which shares they bought accordingly, and charged your memorialist f or th e same the sum of 312/. 10s., being a premium of 1/. 15s. per share, as appears by the ticket delivered to your me morialist. " That about the 14th day of October, 1845, your memorialist again employed Messrs. Rochas and Son, to purchase other 100 shares at the then market price, in the same railway company, which they also bought and charged your memorialist for the same the sum of 3501., being a premium of 2/. 2s. 6d. per share. " That your memorialists paid the above -mentioned sums for the said shares in the said company, at the respective times of the purchase thereof, and received scrip for the said shares, in the belief that the purchases were bond fide made by the said Messrs. Rochas and Son, as brokers, and at the prices charged to your memorialist. "That your memorialist, subsequently wishing to be informed of whom the said shares had been purchased, made application both personally and by his solicitor, to Messrs. Rochas and Son, to produce their books, or copies of the same, in which the purchases of the said several shares were entered and recorded. That not withstanding such application, the said Messrs. Rochas and Son refuse to comply with the requisition of your memorialist by withholding the information required in respect to the purchase of the said shares, as aforesaid, which information your memorialist respectfully submits he is entitled to receive, and that the Messrs. Rochas aid Son, are bound to give, in pursuance of the obliga tion imposed upon them by the condition of a certain bone given by the said Messrs. Rochas and Son, to the Corporation of the City of London, under and by virtue of which they are constituted and empowered to act as sworn brokers of the said City of London. " That your memorialist, under the foregoing circum stances, is induced to pray the aid of your Lordship, and Aldermen of the City of London, to compel M essrs . Rochas and Son to su b m i t their book or books, contain ing the original purchase of the said shares in the said railway company, for the inspection and examination of your memorialist and his solicitor, and also to satisfy them that the same shares were fairly and honestly pur chased by the said Messrs. Rochas and Son, and that they were themselves not the holders and sellers of the said shares, or any part thereof, and otherwise to aid your memorialist in the premises as to your wisdom shall seem meet and proper, "And your memorialist will ever pray." Mr. Rochas, ja appeared at the b ar t o answer t h e charge, and st a t e d that his father, the head of the firm, w was in Switzerland, and that the duration of his absence was uncertain. Mr. Bramwell, the barrister, attended for the de fendants. Mr. Rose attended, with his solicitor, to prosecute. Mr. Bramwell, when the memorial was read, sad that in order to put an end to the business, and to save the time of th e Court, he was ready, upon th e p art o f the defendants, to let Mr. Rose examine the books, and to give him all the information he required ; those books, and that. information having been withheld only because the application had been made through an attorney in the first instance. Mr. Rose's solicitor said that both he and his client had applied for the books and the information both per sonally and by letter, but they received no satisfaction, and to the last letter not even an answer was returned. Alderman COPELAND said it was too late to make such a p ro p o sition. The Aldermen sat in that court to see justice done. The complainant had applied for what the bend of Mr. Rochas, sen., showed he was entitled to. The court must proceed with the investigation. Mr. Rose was then sworn and examined by the RE CORDER.—IIe stated in detail what the memorial con tained in substance, and stated that he employed both Mr. Rochas. sen., and Mr. Rochas, jun., in the purchase of the shares, and he paid for them on the presumption that the purchase was a bonafide one. The REcoanwn, perceiving that Mr. Rochas. jun , had not entered into bond as a sworn broker, observed upon that fact, and said that the tickets were signed Rochas and Son, of which he desired an explanation. Mr. Bramwell said it would be absurd to attempt to • conceal the fact that Mr. Rochas, jun., was not a sworn broker. It was decidedly wrong in that gentleman to act as a broker without being one ; but he had acted in ignorance, and therefore, as far as that was concerned, he was at the mercy of the Court. That circumstance, however, had nothing to do with the subject of the complaint, Which was ready to be rectified by the ex hibition of the books. A long cross•examination of Mr. Rose was then com menced by Mr. Bramwell upon the particular transac tions which had taken. place. Lieutenant-Colonel Bateman stated that he accom panied Mr. Rose to the office of Rochas and son, and gave a detail of the conversation which took place on the subject of the purchase of the shares, and refusal to give the necessary information, or to show the books containing accounts of the dealings. Ultimately the Court came to the following decision : —" That the City solicitor be instructed to put Mr. Rochas', sen., bond in suit for permitting his son to act as broker without having him admitted, and for refusing to give the information which he was under obligation to on the applic a ti on relative to the shares ; give by his bond, and in accord ance w i th the duties of a s h w ut " t n ha broker, thequestion of Mr. Rochas', sen., suspsnsi,m or diSmissal from the office of a broker be postponed until that defendant should have an opportunity to appear before the Court. And, also, that the City solicitor be instructed to proceed against M r . R ochas, jun., for hav ing acted as a broker without having been admitted." The case, as might be expected, excited a great deal of interest and curiosity. EXTRAORDINARY CASE OF MURDER AND SUICIDE. - - On Wednesday, the 30th day of September last, George ;Maley, of Great Gonerby, in th e county of Lincoln, labourer, brought to his father's house, at that place, a girl named Mary Hill, aged about nineteen, who stayed with him there till Thursday, the Bth instant, and on that day, during his absence, she left the house. On finding that to be the case, he left home the same even ing, saying he should be back in an hour and a half, but never returned. On the following Tuesday morning, the 13th instant, information was given to the police at Sleaford, about fourteen miles from Great Gonerby, that a man had poisoned himself at a beer -shop there called the Plough, and an inquest was held on the body on the following day by Mr. George Kewney, one of the coro ners for Lincolnshire, when the deceased was identified as the George Healey before named ; and from the evi dence it appeared that he hail come to the Plough on Sunday evening very wet and with out a hat, and said that his hat had blown off in Belto n fi sh -pond, which is twelve miles from Sleaford, and he h a d fallen into the was a go o d d ea l i n bed, hut came down occasionally ; and at various tim es of the day employed different little boys to fetch him t wo pennyworths of laudanum, which he put into a sod awater bottle which and water on in Monday trying to get it out. H e stayed at the Plough, he had borrowed, saying he was going to take physic. In the evening of Monday he was sitting with the com pany in the house, drinking and amusing himself, when three boatmen came in, and one of them said to one of the company, " That's the fellow we pulled out of the river last night ;" on hearing which he withdrew from the room and went to bed, and in the morning was dis. covered dead, and the sodawater bottle under the mat tress with the remains of the laudanum in it, and a small phial which he had sent for the poison, to disarm suspi jcion, in his pocket. After hearing the evidence, the ury returned a verdict of felo de se; and the Coroner directed the police to look out after the girl, as the man was a very bad character, and she had not been heard of since she had left her father's house. On Thursday, the 15th instant, the body of a woman was discovered in the river Witham, in the lordship of Harroby, close to Grantham, and immediately adjoining the garden of Mr. were brou to light. I t appeare d th a t a ft er H ea l e y Kewney, t h e coroner, fourteen miles from Sleaford, which turned out t o b e t h e body of the woman in question, and had ev id ently been in the water some days ; and an in quest was h e ld b efore the same coroner on Friday, the 16 th instant, w h en the most remarkable circumstances ght left hi s f ather ' s house he went to Lincoln in search of the girl, and not finding her there he returned on Friday to Fulbeck, about 11 miles from Grantham, where he discovered she was with an aunt. He then went to the constable's house, and in his absence borrowed the con stable's staff and handcuffs, stating he was the constable of G reat Gonerbv (which was totally false), and was going t o take a woman into custody for stealing silver spoons an d sugar-bowls, at Great Gonerby. He then charged t wo respectable persons in the village to assist him in th e Q ueen ' s name, saying he expected resistance, and went t o t h e house where the girl was, where by main force h e t oo k her into custody on this pretended charge, and con veyed her in the Lincoln carrier's waggon to Grantham, w h ere he took her to a respectable public House, the B Man gave h e r supper, and had her locked up all night, stating he should take her before the magistrates in the mornin Accordingly, in the morning of S aturda g. y, the 17th, at nine o'clock, he requested the landlord to take care of the hand cuffs and staff till his return, and left the house with the girl, saying he was going to Mr. Mariner's, the clerk to the maaistrates. Instead of this, which of course h e never intended, he called at the Blue Pig, another publi c -h ouse in Grantham, the constable of Pulbeck, puts up, and left word t t i tt le Mr. Morris would find the staff and handcuffs at t Blue Man, where he had left them for him, and thence 1 to the field through lie and the woman were traced the girl where Mr. Alor i ris t , which the river Witham runs, where this body of_ .v , „r was found, and where they ware seen to take , t o t ri mr. side instead of the footpath ; and at I 0 o'clock d I out of Bothei way, the occupier of such field ' picked up p he body was found, a hat with a the river, within 10 yards of the spot where . f . it,y lentified as which, on the inquest on the woman, vv ?"' 1 1 1 ' o ' clock on belonging to Healey ; and between 10 ana who knew the same day Healey was met by a persont.il direction of him, on an unfrequented road, in to the waist, SlcafOrd, without a hat and wet up d the reason of 101(1 he said, on being glove and Handkerchief in d in his road fish-pond (through which he had passe being without a hat ; that it hail blown off in Belton sired information, or to submit to the inspection of the deputation the books of the company, to call a general meeting of the shareholders. A vote of thanks having been given to Major Rich ardson, for his conduct in the chair, the meeting then broke up. DUICH MAIL. THE HAGUE, OCT. 22.--THE SECOND CHAMBER OF THE STATES - GENERAL.—SeVeraI projects of law, with the explanatory memorial, were presented to the Cham ber in this sitting. Among them was that for determin ing the employment of the surplus of the colonial re venue for 1845, which, according to Art. 59 of the fun damental law, is to be regulated by ten. It results from this project of law that the excess of the surplus of the year 1845 amounts to the sum of 4,718,311 f., which will serve to cover in part the expense of the budget for the same year. It appears also that the total revenue amounted to 33,104,346 f. Another project of law was for the propagation of the law of the 18th of December, 184.5, containing measures to encourage importation of provisions for the term of eleven months, that is till the Ist of October, 1847. The nature of the pro pagation is stated to be, that " Though the accounts which the Government has received res pecting the state of the harvest of this year shows that, in all probability, it will not turn out so unfavourably as last year, it is very far from being a good harvest." The disease which has affected the rye this year and the repeated appearance of that which affected the po tato-crop last year, have had an unfavourable effect on the produce, so that it is probable that they will not ex ceed the half of an average crop. Most other countries are affected in the same manner, in consequence of which prices are everywhere high, and likely so to continue, for which reason the Government feel it to be its duty, to extend the law for the importation of ♦arious articles of provisions duty free. THE HAGUE, OCT. 23.—1 n the sitting of the States- General of this day, a message was received from his Majesty, with a project of law for completing the budget of the 6th of March, 1844. ARNHEM, OCT. 21.—T0-day several more rich per sons have passed through this place, with the intention of emigrating to the United States of North America. At the beginning of this week a miller, advanced in years, with his wife and two children, passed through for the same purpose. Most, if not all, of these emi grants complain that, on account of the pressure of the many heavy burdens, they can no longer find a subsist ence in their own country. THR HAGUE, OCT. 22.—His Majesty has been pleased to select, from the three candidates proposed to him, the llon. Mr. Bruce, who was president last year. Mr. Bruce, on taking possession of his seat, delivered an address to the Chamber, expressing his gratitudg and satisfaction for this new mark of the confidence of his colleagues, and of his Majesty's favour.

NEW INVENTION IN RAILROAD MACHINERY AND TRAVELLING.—A considerable improvement has just been effected in the application of a propelling power to carriages on railways by an officer at Vienna. It promise s not only to supersede the atmospheric principle in moving heavy bodies up a plane of considerable elevation, but also bids fair to remove the possibility of a recurrence of those appalling accidents which are of so frequent occurrence both in England and France. The inventor is Captain F. Freisauff von Neudegg, who formerly directed the eciii. ta ry studies of the sons of the Archduk e Ch arles of Austria; and so great seems the confidence inspired as to the complete success of the new principle, that the celebrated engineer Gunther, from whose locomotive factory the greater part of the engines on tlieraiinlwveayns of the southern states has proceeded, no t only answers for its perfection, but has undertak en th e construction of similar crrriages at his own expense The locomotive's tion consists in making the adv ance o f a whole train quite independent of the :adhesi on o f t h e& wheels to the rail on which it moves, and by con veying the propelling power of the engine to the axles of all the carriages, thus making their advance depend on their own adhesion. Each carriage 'becomes thus a locomotive, distinguished from the real locomotive only by the circumstance that the motive power is not independently applied, but it is imparted to it by the engine-carriage. The whole train is thus enabled to ascend any rise that may occur above the level of the railroad which the engine, if alone, would be able to ascend. The same officer has also invented a break, by means of which a train may be conveyed down -hill with perfect safety, and at an equal rate of speed. The re sisting power is placed without the line of road. Carriages built on the principle of Captain Freisauff have been tried at the great steam-engine factory of M. Gunther at Wien-Neustadt, and have been found to mo st f s o a r n t g y uin t h e eexpectations.On a deadwe li i n g e ha hto v f i n6goao in (minimum) rate of one and a half German miles (eight English miles) an hour, and conveyed the same down an inclined plane with perfect safety.—Literary Gazette, Oct 17. PORTUGUESE GRAPES AND ONIONS:--TO show th e extent to whi c h th e i mportation of these fruits av taken plac e w ithi n the past four or five days, in c on e tinuation of our former notice of the subject, the follow. ing, the most extensive of the arrivals, may be particu larly noticed as being beyond all former precedent of previous seasons for the supply of such articles. One vessel, the Countess of Liverpool, from Lisbon, brought 1,099 packages, being an entire cargo, of grapes ; the Speedy packet, also from Lisbon, 914 packages of grapes ; the Anemone, from Oporto, 848 b oxes , b as k ets, and strings o f onions, and 58 packages of grapes ; the Little John, from Lisbon, a complete cargo, consisting of the large number of 1,134 packages of grapes ; the J ack - o'-Lantern, from Lisbon. 1,395 packages of grapes and other productions ; the Black River packet, in ad dition to an extensive cargo of wine and other produce, 353 boxes of onions ; the Ellen, from Oporto, nearly 400 packages of onions, &c. ; the Mary, from Lisbon, 678 packages of grapes, 163 boxes of onions, &c. ; the Ade lina, from Lisbon, 1,126 baskets of grapes, and 105 chests of lemons ; the Victoria, 437 packages of grapes and a variety of other fruits ; and, finally, the Lusi tania, from Oporto, 102 packages of grapes and 1,409 packages of onions, the whole the produce of Portugal. It may with truth be remarked that the supplies of these fruits from the southern states under notice have been of almost unparalleled extent. This may be readily ac counted for, owing to the facilities which the extraor dinary fineness of the weather this summer has afforded for their production. We have before particulayly al luded to the unusually large supply of Ilamburgh grapes this year, and borne testimony to the excellence of their quality, which is undoubted and universally remarked, and it is now a matter of well-known fact, that the vin tages throughout the whole of Europe (England not ex cepted) have this season yielded a supply of grates which, for quality as well as quantity, has perhaps not been equalled, or, at all events, excelled in the present generation.
