On Thursday further experimental trips were made on the Great Western, to t , st tic tractive capacity of the broad gauge engines is ith the heaviest goods trains. The trains were of extraordinary tonnage, and the speed and power attained realm kable. The doe n trip train was 200 tons, exclusive of engine aml tender, and consisted of about 28 trucks, weighted to a gross loud with coal. It was drown by the Hercules, 22 tons might, with six wheels all coupled, and seven foot driving wheel, cylinder 16 inches, stroke 18 inches, fire-box 97 square feet, tube 60 feet. The Ixion, lately used in the experimental passenger train trips, followed in the rear, also weighted with coal to a gross load of 200 tons, so as to furniAt the Hercules, on izs return trip to Paddington with a gross load of 400 tons. The Ixion, from being overworked in her late trip, broke her piston rod on the road soon after passing Slough, sad was re lieved by the engine Pollux. The down train started with fair weather and light south-west wind from the first mile-post at 10b. 27m. 555., and arrived at Didcot, 52 miles, at lh. sm. ls., making the time occupied in the down trip 2h. 37m. 6s. ; but deducting the time for seven stoppages, amounting altogether to 42m. 205., the trip was accomplished in 54m. 465., being at the rate of about 27 miles an hour. -- -.---- -- ---..

The following are the tabulated results from the table of speeds attained by the narrow gauge, in the recent experiment on the York and Darlington, with a 400 tons train, reported in our impression of Monday. It appears that the journey of 43 miles was performed in 2h. 15w. 205., or at an average speed of about 19 miles an hour, being a less speed of 5 1-3 miles an hour than the Great Western, and with 10 miles less ground to work over.

ROYAL ADELAIDE GALLERY. NICKEL'S COMPRESSED AIR RAILWAY. A private view of the operation of this impoitant in vention was last evening afforded to the representatives of the press, and a number of scientific gentlemen (Bri tish and foreign), who were unanimous in their satis faction with the result of the experiments. It would, however, be rash to express a decided opinion upon so limited an observation as one evening could allow. We may, however, say that the following statement of the inventor seemed to be fully borne out : In this system, instead of abstracting the air from any portion of the apparatus, and allowing the pressure of the atmosphere to operate against a vacuum, it is condensed in receivers (capable of resisting considerable pressure) until its force is increased to 35 lbs., or there abouts, upon the square inch. The construction of the apparatus is extremely simple,—the necessity for the ordinary tube, piston, and valve, being entirely ob viated. The medium of the moive power is an appa ratus of iron of the external form of that seen in the model railway, having grooves along the sides which are formed with extreme accuracy—a section of this appa ratus will show a curve on either side, which curves are segment of a circle of like diameter. Along the sides of the grooved iron beam, pieces of cloth, prepared with gutta percha,' are laid, and bolted securely down. At the top and bottom edges, this cloth is not tightly strained across the grooves, but is partially loose, so that it may be adapted to the curve or hollow. The ar rangement here is such that the condensed air may be blown in between the cloth and the iron groove, so as to inflate strongly the cloth, and cause it to project at the sides of the beam, which is as it were thus converted into a flexible or elastic tube. " Fixed to the carriage and descending so as to work with exactness en either side of the beam, are two thick wooden wheels, or friction rollers, the peripheries of which are turned so as to exactly correspond with curves in the sides of the iron beam. These rollers are tightened, laterally, by means of a cross bar and nuts, until they bind tightly against the cloths with grooves; when the condensed air is admitted behind the carriage, it rushes towards these wheels and inflates the tubes in its progress, the condensed air, endeavouring to find a vent, presses forcibly against the wooden wheels and has a tendency to pass between them and the inner surface of the groove; this tendency is counteracted by their binding tightly upon the curves, and they present a barrier to the passage of the air antil its pressure over comes the resistance they offered; when this occurs, the wheels with their carriage yield to the power, and, with the train, are propelled along the line. It is not intended in practice that the whole column of condensed air shall be set in motion, but, that the centre beam shall be hollow, and serve as a receptacle or store for conden sation, so that the air shall be let out in puffs as it were (within the cloths) at intervals, in the length of tubing, by means of a system of valves which may or may, not be opened at the will of the engineer, during the passing of the train." _ _ . The gentlemen present expressed their thanks to M. Claudet, Mr. Keats, and other gentlemen of the in stitution for their courtesy and attention. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. SHEERNESS, JAN. 7.—The Scout, 16, at Chatham, has been commissioned at the Admiralty by Commander William Loring (1841), who will hoist the pennant on board in a few days. She is to have a complement of 140 officers and men. The new 26-gun ship, ordered to be built here, and whose timbers are now being converted, is to be named the Diamond. The following are the dimensions or dered : ft. in.

The Sampson steam-frigate, Captain Thomas Hender son, progresses rapidly with her fittings for sea, and is expected to leave the fitting basin in the course of next week. She has got her yards across, and is now taking her guns on board, which are of the following classifica tion, viz., two 68 pounders, 112 cwt. each ; four eight inch guns, 65 cwt. each, on pivots ; and two 24-pounder carronades, with two 12-pounders for her beats. The Horatio, 44, is being rapidly brought forward as a blockship; the hands recently employed on the Fury are now at work on her, and are stripping her top sides, filling up the old ports,l6 in number on a side, and form ing eleven new ones of a side. She will be armed with twenty 42-pounders, and three 56-pounders, and will be fitted with engines of 300 horse power. The following vessels are also fitting as blockships, or more properly " steam guard ships." At Chatham, Eurotas, 44 ; at Blackwall, La Hogue, 72, and Blenheim, 72 ; at Ports • mouth, Edinburgh, 72 ; at Cowes, Ajax, 72 ; and at Plymouth, the Forth an St ahorse frigates. In Dock—Dido, 20; Electra, 18; Horatio, 44; Ferret, 10; and Tartarus steamer. In Harbour—Trafalgar, 120 ; Ocean, 80 ; and Raven, 3. In the Basin—Brilliant, 20, ready for commission ; Havannah, 20 ; Fury, steam frigate, and Snake, 16, preparing for commission ; Wildfire, steamer, refitting, and Sampson, steam-frigate, and Viper 6, fitting for sea. Commander Charles Walcott (1834), and Lieutenant James Stewart (1828), are two of the officers included in the annual promotions from the Coast Guard. Com mander Charles Walcott is inspecting commander at Anderton, Devon, and Lieutenant Stewart commands the Ranger, revenue cruiser, in which vessel, within the last twelve months, he has made several captures. Com mander Walcott has heen promoted to the rank of post-captain, and Lieutenant Stewart to the rank of commander. _ _ MURRAY'S HOME and COLONIAL LIBRARY. Aos. A X V., XXV 111 , XXIX. Borrow's Gipsies in is I. and 11. The Fall of Le Asurts. Welcome in its present, or in any shape, is Mr. George Borrow's account of the " Gipsies in Spain :" it carries with it such a freshness, such an animation, and such an air of truthfulness and nature, as to arrest our attention and engage our sympathies. Hence it is, that although it now appears before us simply as a reprint, we turn to it again with all the undiminished appetite of novelty, ready to wander once more in its wanderings, to conjecture once more with its conjectures, to laugh with its laughter, to meditate with its meditations. By its own unassisted merits this publication has acquired no inconsiderable popularity, and the secret of its success is merely attributable to two facts—first, the extreme novelty of the undertaking; and, secondly, that whatever is narrated flows from the minute and personal ob servations of one intimately conversant with his sub ject. Not only are we introduced to the moral economy and social peculiarities of the Gitanos on the peninsula, but in the preliminary chapter par ticular sections are allotted to the Zigani of Russia, the me tribe in Hungary, the Roumouni of Wal lachia, and the Gipsies who infest all quarters of the British dominions—all of these people coming under the generic denomination of Rommany, a name which they apply to themselves and their language. In the very outset Mr. Borrow confesses to more than a partiality for this strange and errant race, and his adventures place these assurances beyond a doubt, while they stamp the author as a kind of civilised Bamfylde Moore Carew. Still, besides the fascina tion of this singular affection, which breathes the spirit of old story-books, and reminds us forcibly of the introduction to Bulwer's " Disowned," we possess a guarantee in this very circumstance to the accuracy and copiousness of the writer's information. And as every one must place reliance upon the de scriptions and assertions of Mr. Catlin with respect to the Red Indians of North America, in consequence of his long sojournment and association with them, so must every credence be awarded to the delineations given by Mr. Borrow of the various Gipsy hordes in Spain. It were useless to particularise the plan and features of a work already so familiar to the English reader; nevertheless, we may possibly be allowed,- without any accusation of detail, to make a cursory reference to the fragments of Zincali poetry ap pended to the Second Part. These fragments have a peculiar interest, seeing that they body forth the rugged, but fiery, characteristics of a very ancient people ; and though they raise no pretensions to rythmecal elegance, they have a nerve and energy of a remarkable kind. " The Pestilence," for example, though brief almost to meagreness, contains many fine thoughts and forcible expressions. The opening, "I'm resolved now to tell, In the speech of gipsy-land, All the horror that befel In this city huge and grand," breaks in upon the imagination with a sternness of import most appropriate to the theme; arid when it remarks how God, "in the midst of summertide, his right hand on high did rear," the picture, though miniature in size, has a gloom akin to that of Mar tin; and this is admirably summed up in the con clusion— WooLwicir, JAN. B.—The Grampus, 50 guns, Cap tain Henry B} am Martin, C. 8., is now ready for sea, and will be towed down to Greenhithe to-morrow to have her compasses adjusted by Captain Johnson, and will then proceed to Portsmouth to be paid wages in advance previous to sailing for the South American station. As the period approaches for the departure of this splendid frigate, the number of naval officers who visit her is con sicrerab!e. Amongst those on board to-day were S to c p h fo i r n t a l, , andhir hired n ctship, Ad miral the H on .

ROYAL ARSENAL.—Considerable activity still prevails in the various departments of this great naval and mili tary depot for warlike stores. In the carriage depart ment gun carriages are in progress of construction for the Centaur frigate, brought round to the river,during the present week to be fitted with her engines, and for the Fury steam sloop recently launched at Sheerness ; and preparations are also making to arm all the vessels in her Majesty's navy, from the largest down to the very smallest, in commission, that they may all be in readi ness at a moment's notice, in ease any emergency should arise to require their services for war purposes. " All a sickly aspect wear: Say what heart such sights could brook — Wail and woe whei e'er you look— W ail and woe and ghastly care." Altogether, " Borrow's Gipsies in Spain" bears about it such a newness of tone and material, that it forms an acceptable addition to literature, and Mr. Murray could not well have selected a better book for reprint in his serial. An accurate translation of the "Fall of the Jesuits," by Count Alexis de Saint-Preist—(a happy name, by the way, for such a volume)—forms the twenty-fifth part of the " Home and Colonial Library." Time after time have the nations of Europe been startled by a formal suppression of that wonderful body of wonderful men, the disciples of Ignatius Loyola, and time after time have they risen uninjured from the opposition of popes and princes, to extend the influence of their wily and astute prin. ciples, and assert their claims to power and perpetua tion. The epoch of this temporary downfal, which is chosen in the present narrative, is perhaps the most important in their history, namely, in the latter part of the last century. A period more eventful in every respect, and one of more historical importance, could not have been selected, and the narrator specifies each occurrence which led to the great catastrophe of the Jesuits with precision and clearness, even to the mo ment when Pius VII. issued his bul:, Solicitudo om nium ecclesiarum, in the August of 1814, reinstating the society in all their former privileges, and re establishing them throughout the length and breadth of Christendom. As a description of the most re markable juncture in the status of the most remark able association on the face of the earth, this book is both valuable and interesting.

BUTCHERS' CHARITABLE INSTITUTION.—The se venteenth annual general meeting of the members of the above institution was held last evening at the London Tavern, J. Sharpe, Esq., treasurer, in the chair.

JEI?ROLD'S SHILLING MAGAZINE, We have but one chapter of the "History of St. Giles and St. James" in this number, in which is described the robbery of Tangle's room by Totn Blast and Jingo, while the worthy attorney is snoring from the fumes of the rector's port wine. The thieves get clear off with the booty—that heavy box of gold brought down for the purpose of purchasing the suf frages of the free and independent electors of Liquor ish ; and Tangle, on being awakened by Folder at a somewhat later hour on the following morning, discovers his loss and alarms the house. Let all those who fancy themselves possessed of genius, because their friends tell them so, and who imagine that they have but to write, and print, and publish, to secure to themselves fame and fortune, let all aspirants after literary eminence study the paper entitled "Men of Letters and their Abettors." It may save them many a pang. We are glad to see William Howitt among the contributors to this magazine. He this month commences a series of sketches of English scenes and characters, and judging from the opening one they will be in every way worthy of him and of the magazine. The admirable series of papers, entitled the " Englishman in Prussia," is here concluded, and "Juniper Hedgehog," communicates, in his own quaint style, his opinions on the sayings and doings of the month. In the following recommendation to the "First Lord of the Admiralty" we cordially concur:— " You've several new frigates at the present moment on the stocks. They must all, when they're launched, be christened. Well, why not call one of the best and trimmest of the lot, Sidney Bernard? You can't think that she'd sail the slower, or answer her helm le-ss readily, for bearing such a name ? You can't think that the jack tars aboard of her, nay that the sailors of the whole fleet, would think the worse of the craft, because called after the sailor's friend—the noble, courageous man who died in the sailor's service. Well, my Lord, what do you say ? Do you think the proposal a bold one—do you fear that the nobs of the navy would look glum at it ? Let us talk the matter over. " In the first place, my Lord, run your eye down the Admiralty List. Well, saving your presence, wouldn't you think that sometimes Satan, in a waggish humour, named her Majesty's ships, and not Christian men ? Here we have Griffins, and Rattlesnakes, and Vipers, and Furies, and Harpies, and all sorts of terrible and filthy things, all complimented and honoured by the Lords of the Admiralty, as if they were their own dearest pets, and they wanted to show the world how much they thought of 'ern. Now, for once, let their Lordships show they can have another sort of favourite. At the present moment they may intend to call one of their new frigates the Flea, or the Spider, or the Cockroach, or the Pole cat, or the Water rat. Let them pause awhile ; let them think again, and, renouncing the foolish notion, determine to name her the Sidney Bernard. It is a name that must glorify her timbers ; and who knows— even her Gracious Majesty, delighted with their Lord. ships' choice—might, herself, , :ondescend to christen her. 'Twould be a pretty compliment from a British Queen to Britannia I SY RO-EG Y PTIAN SOCIETY•—At the ordinary meet ing on Tuesday evening, S. Holt Yates took leave of the members, preparatory to a new expedition to Palestine. His exertions will prol.ably throw great light upon• the geo gra; by of the district, as hitherto, in their surveys, travellers have not been permitted by Turkish prejudice,.to employ proper instruments. Dlore liberality has, however. lately taken place, and European travellers can make their surveys with safety. THE LATE BOILER EXPLOSION• -- ANOTHER DEATH.—About eight o'clock on Sunday morning another death, making the total number fifteen, was added to the list of victims by the late calamitous explosion at the mill of Messrs. Rothwell and Kitts. The deceased was a little girl, named Ann Hardman, aged eight years, who was crossing the factory yard, and had got to the door of the house where she lived, when the explosion took place.—Manchester Guardian. " Consider, my Lord, what a very nice thing it would be to have a Sidney Bernard afloat! How pleasantly the fleet would look upon her ! How, at certain times, in every sea of the world, she would carry with her the recollection of the gallent surgeon—how she would help to keep up the spirits of the young and struggling, who, wherever her pennant was seen, would see the: gratitude of England to humble, !)ut heroic men I It is worth while, depend upon it, my Lord, to keep up this spirit ; so have nothing to do with the Flea--cast aside the Cockroach—renounce the Polecat, and stick to nothing but the Sidney Bernard." Sidney Bernard, was one of the noblest-minded of Britain's sons—his bravery was of a higher order far than that mere physical courage which confronts death " amidst the tumult of the strife" upon the battle-field, " For fame is there, to say who bleeds, And honour's eye on daring deeds ;" but he grappled with death in the pest-ship —,he led the forlorn hope against the plague—he fell gloriously, and a grateful nation has a sacred duty to p er f orm t o his mother, memory. no sisters, as h n e o le b f r t ot n h o ers, wife,behinnd him ? heo children, no have he has left them as a legacy to his country, and let us provide for them, not as his merits deserve, for that is impossible but as a great nation sho u ld p rovi d e for its adopted children. Name a trigate after him— it is well ; provide for those whom he has left to our care—it is well too ; but there is a duty which we owe to ourselves, and we shall be dishonoured if we do not consecrate to his memory a niche in our national temple. A monument, a national monument, must be erected, not to his honour—for nothing that vte can do can add to the vast meed of honour which he hath fur himself acquired—but to our gratitude; and let the genius of our artists, and the " cunning workman ship" of our artificers, exhaust themselves in the de signing and the erecting of that monument, still must they fail in doing justice to the noble subject which they have in hand. But, above all, let not that monument, like too many of our national monuments, be disgraced by the miserable, mean, pitiful, niggardly, insulting inscription " Erected at THE SUN, LONDON, riunAv 3`,AXTTARY-9,. the public expense." Shame on the purse-proud parvenu who first invented the phrase ! Shame on those who have so long tolerated it ! Let it be at once erased from every national monument ; and would, for the honour of our common nature, that it could be as easily erased from our memories. THE RAILWAY REGISTER. The opening paper of this number, on the " State and Pro,pects of Railway Affairs," holds out, it must be confessed, but a gloomy prospect. The articles on the "Continental Railways," and on the" Metropolitan Improvements" are continued. The writer of this latter paper speaks in the following terms of the scheme of the Thames Embankment and Railway Junction Company : " The possibility of an embankment of a portion of the river was started twenty years since by Colonel Trench, and is now brought forward under auspices that bid fair to give the first crude conception positive relief and existence. In the scheme propounded two leading features have been embraced ; first, the erection of at embankment on the r.orth shore of the Thames, extend ing from Hungerford-market to Blackfriars-bridge, by which a solid longitudinal platform would be raised, affording an elevated mound fur a noble public terrace aloag the river, and fora carriage and f oo t- wa y, t h at would open greater facilities for business and transit than the narrow and crowded thoroughfares which DOI% form the only communication between the west and east ends of the metropo:is. This part of the design will be readily understood from the !nap prepared by Mr. Page, the able engineer of the prujected work, and which we hope to be able to insert in our February number. " At this point the design might pause, and when practically carried out, a great public work held to be completed. But, in connexion with the embankment, it is intended to open a railway street , which forms the second feature of the plan, upon the atmospheric prin ciple, from the east, or Blackfriars end of the embank ment, to the vicinity of London-bridge, the Bank and Royal Exchange, and thence to the Blackwall Railway; throwing off branches from this junction line over Southwark-bridge, or a new railway bridge, so as to communicate with the Brighton, Croydon, South- Eastern, and other lines on the Surrey side of the Thames. • " Such is the general outline of the scheme, whose advantages may be thus recapitulated:-1. A river-side terrace, equally striking in appearance and utility, affording a spacious drive and promenade available for the purposes of either business or health and recreation, will be obtained for the public; while the most crowded thoroughfares ofthe City will be relieved from a part of the vast traffic which obstructs them, and by the adoption of the improved mode of railway transit, free from noise, smoke, and danger. 2. The improvement of the navigation of the river, and of the metropolitan sewerage, by the removal from the north shore of the taisightly and unwholesome accumulations of mud that now impede and disfigure it. 3. A rapid and uninter rupted tine of communication will be opened between the centre of London and the southern and eastern parts of the kingdom." He is likewise favourable to the proposal for the establishment of cemeteries on the banks of the Thames, and offers several valuable suggestions on the question of the Metropolitan termini. There is one subject which, we hope, will attract the serious attention of those who are devoting their attention to the improvement of the metropolis, and that is, the providing the population with a suf ficient supply of pure water for drinking. For all other purposes, the solution of putrid and noxious matters which under the name of water is supplied to us by the water companies may be sufficient, but when used as a beverage the stuff is so deleterious, not to say poisonous, that we feel convinced the mor tality of the metropolis is greatly increased by its use. It is the generator of low nervous fever, from the depressing effects which it produces on the system, and it encourages intoxication by forcing many to have recourse to fermented and spirituous liquors who would prefer water, provided they could procure it pure, wholesome, and tasteless. The suc cess of the Artesian Well, at the back of Trafalgar square, holds out a hope that the metropolis may at length possess this desideratum. COURT CIRCULAR. The Queen and Prince Albert drove out in a pony phaeton on Wednesday afternoon, his Royal highness driving. Colonel Bouverie attended on horseback, Their Royal Highnesses the Prince of Wales, Prince Alfred, the Princess Royal, and the Princess Alice, were taken an airing on Wednesday afternoon. _ _ Yesterday morning her Majesty and her Royal Con sort took their accustomed early walk in Claremont Park. Prince Albert afterwards went out shooting, at tended by Mr. Anson, Colonel Bouverie, and Colonel Bowles. The Royal Family were all taken airings in Clare mont Park yesterday morning. Baron de Moncorvo, the Portuguese Minister, trans acted business yesterday at the Foreign-office. DERBY MAIL. (FROM A CORREsPONDENT.) The early mail train from Derby being too late in Birmingham on Sunday morning last to go forward to Liverpool, the bags, containing letters, &c., of very great importance to go by the American packet, were de tained in Birmingham until the departure of the day mail, which arrived in Liverpool about two hours too late for the packet. This will be a very serious thing for the merchants of Sheffield, Nottingham, and Derby ; but, to make bad worse, all these letters &c., are detained at Liverpool without the knowledge of the writers, and perhaps will remain there for weeks. TIIE SOUTHAMPTON AND ISLE OF WIGHT MAILS. COWES, JAN. B.—The Government have it in contem plation to have the mail steamer for Cowes leave this port at half-past three o'clock in the morning, and leave Cowes for Southampton at ❑ine o'clock i❑ the evening instead of at five o'clock, as at present. This will be a great accommodation to the inhabitants of Ventnor, as they will have their London letters by eight o'clock, A.N., and till nearly seven, P.M., to answer them, which now must be done before three, P.M. Newport will obtain a similar accommodation. The inhabitants of Cowes will only be benefited in the departure of the mail being four hours later. The mail train does not leave South ampton till two o'clock next morning, .and the Isle of Wight letters are delayed here from half past six in the evening till that hour. During the time Sir Robert Peel had resigned office, it was necessary to send a royal mes senger from Osborne House to London at seven o'clock in the evening, but the mail steamers had left at five o'clock, and there was not another steamer to be got ; the Hero pilot-boat was, therefore, hired to take the dis• patches, but the wind and tide both being down the river, they could not get here, but were obliged to go to Portsmouth Her Majesty's residence at Cowes may, therefore, have something to do with the proposed alte rations. We hope the extra labour which will fall on the masters of steamers, and all connected with the con veyance of the mails, will not be forgotten, but that an ample remuneration will be paid them. The time at the Cowes Post-office will be doubled, and nearly so at the others, and should be paid for. THE LATE LORD GRANVILLE. The deceased Peer was the second son of Granville, first Marquis of Stafford, and half-brother of the first Duke of Sutherland. His Lordship was born on the 12th of October, 1773, and married on the 24th Decem ber, 1809, the Lady Harriet Elizabeth Cavendish, second daughter of William, fifth Duke of Devonshire. As Lord Granville Gower, the deceased nobleman took an active part in political affairs prior to 1815, oc cupying for several years the important post of Ambas saAor at the Imperial Court of Russia. In 1815 he was created Viscount Granville, of Stone Park, in the county of Stafford. On his appointment as Ambassador to France, by the Whig Government, in 1833, his Lordship was further raised to the dignity of an Earl. In 1800, Mr. Pitt appointed his Lordship a Lord of the Treasury, in the room of the Hon. J. T. Townshend. The deceased Earl was, however, destined to take a more distinguished position in the public service. He was appointed Ambassador to Russia at that troublesome period when Napoleon was exerting all his skill to re concile the Emperor Alexander to the territorial con quests the F.ench army tad achieved in Prussia and Austria. His Lordship was at St. Petersburgh when the whole of the views of the British Government were thwarted by the Emperor Alexander throwing himself into the arms of the common enemy. The Noble Earl continued resident Minister at Russia some years, a 7 d was subsequently ac cr dited Envoy and Minister Plenipotentiary at the Hague. Oa Earl Grey's accession to power as Prime Minister, Earl Granville was soli cited to take the high diplomatic post of Ambas sador at Paris, and, with the interval of a few months , when Sir R. Peel assumed office in 1834, the Noble Earl continued to fill that important station at the Court of France up to the resignation of Viscount Melbourne. In politics, although introduced into the vortex of political life by Pitt, the late Earl was a Whig, and a supporter of the Governments of Earl Grey and Vis count Melbourne. There is an incident connected with the early life of the late Earl, which should be alluded to. It is known that the fatal shot which killed Spencer Perceval was intended -to have destroyed Lord Granville Leveson Gower, as Bellingham himself asserted, for the alleged ill-treatment he had received in Russia. when Lord Granville Leveson Gower was minister there. By the elevation of Lord Leveson to the peerage, a vacancy for Lichfield is occasioned. GLASGOW PIG IRON TRADE, JAN. 2.--Firmness among holders has been very general within this few days past, and we do not hear of any iron offering under 80s., al though we are not aware of any transactions at these figure. —Glasgow Argus. MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE.—On Friday, the 26th ult., a girl, eleven years cf age, named Sarah Ann Malthouse, who resided with her parents in Monk-terrace, in the suburbs of this city, disappeared, and has not since been heard of. Her mother had sent her on an errand, and she never returned. The girl, who has dark eyes and hair, had on at, the time a blue merino dress and a black apron, but no bon net; a light-clovred silk handkerchief was also thrown across her shoulders. INquiries have this week been made at Leeds among her friends respecting her, but with out success, and the mother yesterday made au application to the York magistrates fur advice in the matter, when they recommended her to issue placards in some of the principal towns in the county. 'We hope this paragraph will meet the eye of some one who can give such information as will lead to the discovery of the girl.—York Herald. The Earl of Besborough and the Ladies Ponsonby have left Besborough House, county of Kilkenny, for Loudon. t 84 THE CORN-TRADE. The present position of affairs is certainly not calcu lated to inspire confidence. The uncertainty as to how long the existing laws regulating the duties on corn may remain in force, or, if altered, the nature of the change likely to be proposed, has naturally interfered greatly with business. So completely are all parties in the dark relative to the future, that few are disposed to enter into investments. Nut only, therefore, has spe culation wholly Leased, but buyers for actual con sumption have deemed it the more prudent plan to con fine their purchases to as narrow limits as have been consistent with their immediate wants. Notwithstand ing these manifest disadvantages, there has been a buoyancy about the trade in grain, indicative of a rise in prices ; and, from present appearances, we cer tainly inclne to the opinion that., in whichever way the corn-law question may be settled, the settlement will be immediately followed by an active demand for hie ad-stuffs. The late fall in the prices of wheat was (as we have on former occasions remarked) caused .holly by political events, and not by any alteration to public opinion respecting the result of the harvest. The cal:), though certainly not so bad as represented by those connected with the League for party purposes, must nevertheless be considered as decidedly below that of average years. That there really is a deficiency in the yield, is admitted on all hands; but so variously is it estimated, as to render it almost impossible to determine with any degree of accuracy to what ex tent. Coupled, however, with the falling off in the quantity of food, in consequence of the disease by which the produce of potatoes has so greatly &- creased, quite sufficient grounds are afforded to conclude that wheat cannot lung remain at present rates. We do not mean to affirm that there is any cause to fear scarc ity an d very hi g h pr i ces ; but we think it highly propable that the value of the article may again advance to about the same point from which it has fallen since the commencement of the Ministerial changes early in December. Nothing can more strongly indicate the healthy state of the trade than the fact that prices have recently rallied in all parts of the country, in spite of the many causes in operation of a character likely to produce the opposite effect, viz., the dread of e-,e corn-laws being meddled with on the meeting of Parliament, the absence of all speculation, and the un w of millers and others to increase their stocks. At most of the provincial markets held since our last sellers have displayed much firmness ; and though, as before remarked, the demand has been the reverse of lively, enhanced terms have been pretty generally asked and obtained. At Liverpool, on Tuesday, the transac tions were on a limited scale, none but needy buyers being willing to pay the rates demanded ; the few sales , effected were, however, at fully the prices of the pre ceeding Friday, being an advance of Id. to 2d. per 701bs. on the currency of that day se'nnight. Later in the week affairs remained in much the same state; indeed, so little business was done on Friday that the operations did not warrant any alteration in quotations. The tone of the advices from the leading towns in Yorkshire is, generally, firm. The Hull market was, on Tuesday, pretty well supplied with farmers' wheat ; the best qualities sold at prices Is. per quarter above those previously obtainable ; and secondary descriptions were fully as dear as the week before. At Leeds slightly enhanced rates were also insisted on, which checked the inquiry, and no quotable advance was established. The reports from Wakefield, of Friday, inform us that only a trifling amount of business was done there in wheat at about former rates. At several of the western and north-western markets :he upward movement has been more decided than at the places above referred to. At Bristol and Birming ham the rise, on Thursday, was Is. to 2s. per quarter ; and at several other towns of minor importance in that quarter a similar rally has occurred. From the shipping ports on the east coast we have also advices of rising prices ; so that the country mar kets may be said to have taken the lead, which must, we conceive, produce some effect on quotations in Mark lane. By our Scotch letters, it appears that the more ani mated accounts from the south had failed to have much influence on the trade, business in wheat being far from lively at Edinburgh and Glasgow on Wednesday. Oats were, however, more saleable at both these places ; and at the former a rise of 6d. per quarter took place in the price of this grain. From Ireland, the reports relative to potatoes are less favourable this than the preceding week. It is stated that, in many cases, on opening the pits, the disease had been found to have made great havoc ; and so general was the impression that this article of food would ulti mately become very scarce and dear, that a firm tone had been given to the wheat and oat trade in anticipation of an increased consumption of flour and meal. The very boisterous weather experienced during the greater part of the week has caused the arrivals of all kinds of grain into London to be very small. Of wheat only 1,083 quarters have been received coastwise up to this (Saturday) evening, the constant gales from the west having prevented arrivals from the eastward. 'The quantity exhibited at Mark-lane by land car riage samples from the neighbouring counties has also been trifling since Monday. On Wednesday the show consisted of a few parcels, of inferior quality, left over from previous supplies. Anything fine would pro bably have sold without difficulty at the recent advance ; but the want of suitable qualities caused the millers to retrain from buying, and so little business was done as to render quotations nearly nominal. On Friday, the Essex, Kent, and Suffolk stands were nearly bare ; and needy purchasers had to pay full terms, factors dispaying more disposition to raise than to lower their pretensions. The lull effect of the great fall which took place in the value of wheat in the early part of December is only now be ginning to tell on the aggregate average for the king dom—the last weekly return is 565. 4d., and the duty, after remaining stationary for several weeks, 14s. per quarter, rose a step on Thursday. Nor is the advance likely to cease here—the present position of the averages rendering a further rise of is. to 2s. per quarter almost certain. So confident are im porters, however, that a material modification of the duties will be proposed by the Government on the meeting of Parliament, that little or no wheat has recrutly been entered for home consumption, the oulk of what has been received from abroad having been landed under lock. The transactions in foreign wheat have, since our last, been on a very restricted scale owing partly to holders having asked enhanced terms, and partly to the fact that several of the large millers have still old wheat, on hand, which they seem deter mined to work, up before making purchases at the en hanced rates demanded. The inquiry for wheat under lock has certainly fallen off since last week. there are, we believe, orders in town from Belgium, but at limits much tail low to admit of their execution, importers having shown no inclination to facilitate business by sub mitting to lower terms. The recent rise in the price of wheat has not been followed by a corresponding advance in quotations of flour ; indeed the sale of the latter article has, through out the week, been slow, former rates having been paid with some reluctance by the bakers and dealers. In bonded flour 'e have heard of no operations of importance ; good brands of United States have been held at 30s. per barrel. The trifling nature of the supply of English barley has caused this grain to be held with increased firmness ; really choice malting qualities have been extremely scarce, and have commanded quite as much money as at any period of last week. Secondary descriptions, though in comparatively slow request, have also supported theft previous value with considerable firmness. The duty on this grain is at present ss. per quarter; but may be ex pected to rise a step in the course of a week or two. Quotations of Malt have undergone very little varia tion; it has, however, been difficult to buy the finer sorts at last Monday's currency. The arrivals of oats have been scanty from all quarters ; of English, only 971 quarters, of Scotch 272 quarters, of Irish 1,242 quarters, and of foreign 5,838 quarters, having come to hand during the week. There is no doubt that the large London dealers still hold quite average stocks ; but as. from the prevalence of westerly winds, it is generally believed that comparatively few oats are now on passage from Ireland, factors hate exhibited very little anxiety to press sales of those still on shipboard ; the trade has, conse quently, assumed a decidedly firm tone, and neither on Wednesday nor Friday could good fresh corn be bough t on as easy terms as on Monday. The total quantity of oats oats entered during the past year at this port ha s n o exceeded 50.000 qrs.; what remains in bond is tri fli ng. English beans have old rowaerdscararcteh.er No o ari ac ng tu ly ai and fine samples ofhave become forward advance has hitherto taken place in prices; but the turn has been against the buyer. The continued mild weather has interfered with the sale of boiling peas ; and though the consumption is usually great at this season, the demand has not been by any means brisk since our last, and quotations have re mained as before. B, sides the alteration in the duty of wheat above no tic,-d, a rise of is. per quarter took place in the rates chargeable on rye and beans on Thursday. FOREIGN. The stormy weather lately experienced has caused a ie t g h ul t a h r e itY Christmas holidays—generally in the arrival of the foreign g m o a o i di mails, deal w h c o l ! . ob'.erved with strictness on the Continent—renders our foreign intelligence rather scanty this week. The tenor of the reports from the Baltic bears so close a resemblance to the news received by the previous mail from thence as to afford little scope for remark. The fluctations which have recently taken place in the price of wheat in the British markets seem to have had less influence on quotations abroad than usual; still the value of the article has fallen materially from the highest point, at several of the principal shipping ports. The latest advices from Rostock state that merchants were then willing to enter into contracts to ship wheat, of capital quality, in spring, at 445. to 465. per qr., free on board, being at least 6s. per qr. below the highest price of the season. This giving way on the part of sellers had failed, however, to impart activity to busi ness, and very few bargains had been closed. At Stettin a sale or two appears to have been made just previous to the holidays, at rather below former terms ; on the 27th of December, the best 621bs. red wheat was held at 515., and secondary descriptions at from 495. to 50s. per quarter. Comparatively small supplies had been broueht forward by the farmers, who had manifested a decided unwillingness to submit to lower terms. Bremen letters, of the 27th ult., state that little or no export demand had been experienced during the week, and that quotations had rather tended downwards. At Dantzic, on the 27th of December, there was scarcely anything doing ; and the holidays having inter rupted the regular course of business, but few transac tions had occurred since that day se'nnight. Holders of wheat had, nevertheless, remained tolerably firm, slid no material variation had occurred in prices. At llamburgh, on Tuesday, wheat was in rather im 7 . proved reque s t, i n consequence o f t h e more encouraging accounts from this side. Besides the sale of about 1,500 from 495. 6d. to quarters on the spot, at prices Tarying 525. 2d. per quarter, several contracts to ship from out ports in spring had been closed at 50s. to 51s. per quar ter free on board. From the Mediterranean we have little or nothing fresh to communicate. A letter from Marseilles, of the 27th ult., states that a good deal of anxiety was felt there to learn what was likely to be done in the corn-laws here; and it was expected that but little business would be transacted in wheat whilst the matter remained in un certainty. The operations in the article had, we are in formed, been on a very trifling se:l4i since that day week, the Christmas holidays having put a temporary stop to business; in this state of things prices had remained nominally unaltered. The accounts from Odessa are also rather dull, the foreig❑ demand for wheat having slackened materially. The price of moderately good qualities was there still 345. to 365. per quarter ; but it was deemed probable that if no further orders from Great Britain and Holland came to hand, quotations might recede to a moderate extent.— Mark-lane Express. THE STYLE AND TITLE OF ESQUIRE. TO THE EDI 7 OR OF THE SUN. SlR,—The numerous railway companies, to whieh speculation ha s g i ven bi rt h, has mad great public characters of hundreds, who were before but little known; they have been styled, or have styled themselves, " Esquires." Nuw, Sir, as many of these companies have ceased to exist, and, of course, the directorships with them, can you inform me what becomes of the tiazs ? The occupation is gone. Does the honours re main ? or do they, like those of my Lord Mayor and my Lady Mayoress, die with the office ? I would not trouble you, but want to write to a friend, and I do nut know how to address him.—Yours truly, STAG. LOllll MORPETII. (From the Chronick.) It is formally announced, by a leading organ of the Monopolist party, that the return of Lord Morpeth for the West Riding will meet with no opposition. The Standard of last night commences a remonstrance against the pusillanimity of surrendering, without a struggle, the representation of the leading constituency to the free traders, with the following statement : " It seems to be generally understood that no opposi tion is to be offered by the Conservatives to the return of Lord Morpeth to the position from which he was driven by the gallant and successful effort made to break the Whig-Radical chain, at the general election in 1841. withoutTo u a s, s t t h r e a g p g o l l a i ey i of s l,e r giving e s u t i p o t a h b i l s e, i b m u p t o r o t r a n e t o u s e rs a e t we can only be imperfectly acqu a int e d with the r e a sons which ha ve ruled the decision of the Conservative leaders, It has been said, in their behalf, in a tone of authority, that a conjunction of circumstances renders a contest at the present moment inexpedient, though not doubtful at to the result. The un settled state of the Government—the uncertainty which prevails cis to Sir Robert Peel's plans for a settlement of the corn-law question—the precarious state of the health of the Earl of Carlisle—and the probability of a general election in the course of the present year, are all urged as arguments why Lord Morpeth should be permitted to take possession of a seat which he cannot, in the common course of things, occupy for more than a few months. By that time, it is said, the Conservatives will be enabled to arrange their plans, and repair the inroads made upon the register last autumn by the unscrupulous agents of the League. Then, we are told, the Conser vatives will re-appear upon the scene in all their strength, and repeat the victory so nobly achieved by the election of Mr. Worthy and Mr. Denison. " This may be satisfactory to some of the parties con cerned, but it is obviously only an excuse." It is unnecessary to remind the free-traders of the West Riding, that to rely on such representations as the foregoing, so far as to neglect any precautions by which, in the event of a contest, victory might be ren dered secure, would be to give the enemy the only chance they are likely to have of retrieving their despe rate affairs. The men of Yorkshire know full well that ' they may safely rest from their labours when the contest is over, but not sooner, and that the responsibility of having irreparably injured a great cause would lie heavily upon them, if, through over-confidence, they left themselves open to a surprise. Upon this point, there fore, we have no apprehensions, and we are not fearful of doing mischief, by expressing our belief that the mono polist party in the West Riding will not venture to show themselves at the hustings. Should this expectation prove well-founded, the fact will be one of memorable significance. The arguments assigned in the para graph we have quoted for allowing Lord Morpeth to walk over the course are manifestly what the Standard calls them, " only an excuse." The representation of the West Riding is not to be merely lent to Lord Mor peth for a few months, that it may be resumed at a general election. Such transfers are neither easy nor common. The declaration of the West Riding against the Whig Ministry in 1841 was felt to be a heavy blow. There was no attempt to impair its force by represent ing it to be less important than in truth it was. Least of all, did Lord Morpeth 'endeavour to depreciate the worth, or to tarnish the splendour of the prize which was then torn from his grasp. With manly and charac teristic frankness, he admitted the greatness of the defeat which he had sustained, and had no consolation for his supporters but to bid them bide their time, and to keep alive their faith in the indestructible truth and power of their own principles. Weighty and full of re sults as was the decision of the West Riding in 1841, it will not be less co in 1846. The return of Lord Morpeth now will be a solemn reversal of the judgment by which he was unseated, a reversal pronounced upon better , knowledge of the bearings cf the question at issue, and one therefore carrying with it all the sanction that the act of a popular body can give to a course of policy sub mitted to its decisicn. It is useless, then, for the mo nopolists of the %Vest Riding to try to persuade either themselves or any one else that the return of Lord Morpeth to this Parliament may, be suffered as a matter of indifference. This Parliament, near as it is to the end of its existence, may yet •be found sufficient to demolish that monstrous system of restrictions by which the industry of the country is fettered, and no single fact is so likely to bring about the result speedily as the return of Lord Morpeth for Yorkshire upon free trade principles. Changes in the representation of petty boroughs, and other constituencies chiefly under private influence, may easily arise from causes unconnected with the general movement of opinion, and may have but slight effects upon legislation ; but a great section of the king dom like the West Riding of Yorkshire, with its manu facturing, its commercial, and agricultural interests all on a grand scale, changes only as the nation change; and all its political acts have proportionate meaning and authority. To let the voice of that powerful constituency be given at the present moment in favour of free trade, without even an effort to obtain a different decision, will be an irrefragable proof that the cause of monopoly is felt to be desperate. If the battle could be fought with the slightest chance of success, this great post would not be surrendered without a struggle. But the cause of mono poly is really hopeless, and all clear-headed men feel that it is so. Those whose false position seems to im pose upon them the office of defending it, speak with stammering lips and faint ambiguous tones in its behalf. In 1841 there was some faith in the corn-law, and ti) possibility of keeping up what is called protection ; now there is none. The enthusiasm which won power for the Conservative party, but which was so soon and so rudely disenchanted by Conservative legislation, has disap peared. The means of fighting a great battle for the corn-laws with success in a popular constituency no longer exist, and for this reason, and this only, Lord Morpeth is likely to resume the representation of the West Riding without a contest. ironmasters BIRMINGHAM, THURSDAY NIGHT.—IRONMASTERS ' MEETING.—The usual quarterly meeting of the general th at al lw the wish a r attributable to the was held here to day : the attendance was more usual, a circumstance which is Ttlaers m isunderstanding as to the fact of there having been some u ini s canty than be postponed until next Thurs. seemed to be that it shou ld Id beheld.

There seemed a decided tendency to advance on all other d • descrip tions of iron, but no declaration was made, and the general opinion seemed to be that present prices will stand for a time. It is many years since business in the mining districts was in so healthy a condition. REDUCTION IN THE PRICE OF BREAD.—Yesterday several of the bakers of the metropolis reduced the price of the best bread from 9d. to 9d.; seconds ditto, from 80. to Bd. ; and some from Bd. to 70. The average price of bread is at present Bd. per 41b. loaf. No reduction whatever took place in the West-end. TESTIMONIAL TO A MEDICAL GENTLEMAN.-011 Wednesday evening, a numerous party of gentlemen dined at the house of Mr. J. P. Nagle, the Tower, Tower-street, St. Martin's-lane, the occasion being the presentation of a silver tea-service to Mr. Fitzgerald, M.R.C.S., of High street, Bloomsbury. The object of this valuable presenta tion is stated in the inscription on the plate, which is as follows :—" This service of plate vas presented by a few friends to Mr. Dillon Fitzgerald, M.R.C.S., in token of the high estimation in which they - hold him for his very excel lent qualities, his great skill, and general usefulness as a medical man ; his charity and kindness to the poor, and his sincerity as a friend." Mr. Nagle was the originator of the testimonial. WINDSOR, THURSDAY EVENING.—In consequence of the new arrangement for the issuing of tickets (signed by the Lord Chamberlain), which are now only to be procured in London, for the viewing of the state apartments at the Castle, being found to be exceedingly inconvenient to the public residing away from the metropolis, it is expected that an alteration will speedily take place, so that tickets may b e procured in Windsor as well as in London.: Several parties have arrived in the town since the new arrangement came into operation on the Ist instant, for the express purpose of visiting the state apartments, but they were necessarily dis appointed, in consequence of being unprovided with tickets, and there being no place in Windsor where they could be ob tained. The abolition of the fees for viewing the state rooms ,by command of her Majesty, appears to have given universal satisfaction.
