Established by Act of Parliament, for Assurances of Lives and Survivorships, and likewise for the Granting and Purchasing of Annuities. HONORARY PRESIDENTS. Earl of Errol Lord Viscount Eastnor, M. P.

PLASKET, Esq., Deputy Chairman. The accommodation now offered to the public by the following condition will be found particularly convenient and well worthy the serious consideration of parties who may wish to secure to their families the bonus expected on equitable policies, Jan. 1, 1840, and, by adopting it, not only will that object be obtained, but they may avail themselves of continuing the insurance for the remainder of life, at the premium of their present age, whatever may be their state of health, after having received the bonus of the Equitable:— "When an insurance is for life half the premium may remain unpaid for five years at interest, to be deducted eventually from the policy or paid off at convenience, it being perfectly understood that if the party discontinues the insurances the Company have no claim on him for the portion of the premium that is unpaid." Thus a gentleman of 45 may be insured for the whole period cf life at 31. 10s. 6d. per cent., and by paying 1/. 15s. 3d. for the first five years, he may discontinue his insurance as soon as he has re ceived the bonus of the Equitable, or may remain insured for life as above explained. This Company grants liberal Annuities upon ages of 65 and up wards, to parties themselves, but not assignable, and every informa tion will be afforded on personal application at the office, or by letters addressed to the Resident Director, Edward Boyd, Esq.. 8, W aterloo-place, Pall-mall.

Take this Blacking-pot, now o'erflowing, To grace your shoe-hole whilst I'm away; Never, oh ! never, its jet bestowing, Unless it gives polish as bright as day : And when, in his hoots, some asbiish'd old fellow, So brightly reflected, his face shall espy, With gratitude then he the secret shall tell, oh ! At Warren's, the Strand, is the place to buy. This Easy-shining and Brilliant Blacking prepared by ROBERT WARREN, 3t', Strand, London; and sold in every Town in the Unlted Kingdom.

The petition, of which th e following is a copy, was lately presented to the House of Commons, but not printed with the votes The humble petition of Edward Solly, of Curzon-street, May fair, gentleman, Sheweth,—That for sometime past the Banking and Corn. mercial interests of this country have been, and still continue, exposed to very great dangers and losses, arising from the ex isting mint and currency regulations. That in the year just past, as well as in the year 1825, a very considerable exportation of coin, and a consequent con traction of the currency, or paper money, took place, whereby a sudden revolution was occasioned in the money market, and consequently in the position of all contracts depending on it, as also of trade generally. That these repeated crises in the money market have been the result of innovation and defects introduced into our mone tary system by Sir Robert Peel's Bill, and by subsequent Bills, namely, by the making our gold coin an article of foreign trade, and without adopting its relative value to silver in ac cordance with its marketable value in all other countries, and without any charge for seignorage, thus enabling the foreigner to extract from our internal commerce the staff of its life as by the law constituted, namely, our gold coin, even when, ac cording to the nominal par, the exchanges seemed to be ad , verse to such exportation. That by the alteration of the gold coin from the guinea to the sovereign, the one-pound note (which previously could only be exchanged for twenty shillings in silver, being the fractional parts, and, th ere f ere , t h e l eg i t i mate o bj ect of the exchange), became the channel of a new demand for the gold coin, whereby, in the year 1825, the pressure . on the banks for gold and the general panic was so much increased. That the demand for gold coin for the home circulation was again further increased by the total prohibition of one-pound notes, whereby, at the same time, the retail trade of the lower classes was deprived of that facility in traffic which the one pound notes afforded, while the richer classes were still per mitted to indulge in paper money to an unlimited extent. That the progressive increasing value of go ld com p are d t o silver in the markets of the world, which, previous to the Bill permitting the free export of cur coin, did not so easily affect our home circulation, has, since the passing of the Bill, made it impossible to retain an equable and sufficient supply of gold coin in the country under the present system. That while the necessity of an additional supply of gold coin has been increased by the legal enactments which have forcibly created a new demand, the responsibility of increasing the supply does not appear to rest any where. That further, as the demand for gold coin for exportation increases, the paper money iu circulation is necessarily with drawn, in order to avoid the effects of that demand, whereby the money market is placed in the position of a candle con suming at both ends. That, therefore, to insure to the Banking and Commercial interests so threatened a greater security, and in order to di minish these recurring -fluctuations in the money market, either a return to the old system of prohibiting the export of our coin with the circulation of guineas and one-pound silver notes, or as an alternative, the raising the value of the present gold coin to one and twenty shillings silver, combined with the issue of one-pound silver notes, appears to be necessary. Wherefore your petitioner humbly prays that your Ho nourable House will take the subject of this his petition into consideration, and provide such a remedy as your Honourable House may think fit. And your petitioner will ever pray, &c. This day was publishs T HE LONDON A REV] COST 1. The Statesman, by H. Tay-' lor, Esq. 2. English Musicians: ed, No. IX.—LII. of ND WESTMINSTER lEW. 'ENTS. 7.

On Sunday night last the mansion of Sir Henry Meux, Bart., at Theobald,s-park, Hertfordshire, was burgla. riously entered by some thieves, who had succeeded in forcing the fastenings of one of the outer windows, and who carried away property to a considerable amount. Among the pro perty stolen was 85!. in bank-notes, six sovereigns, and a vast quantity of linen and wearing apparel. At an early hour on Monday morning the circumstances of the rob bery was icommunicated to Watkins, an active officer belong ing to the mounted Bow-street patrol, stationed at Enfield, who at once repaired to Theobald's-park, and after looking over the premises proceeded along the London-road, and at the nearest turnpike got a description of two men who had passed towards town whom he strongly suspected of having committed the robbery. He pursued his inquiries about these men, and by great perseverance traced them to their re sidence in Middlesex street, Somers Town. One of them, whose name is Joseph Henderson, resided at No. 10, and the other, John Coleman, lives at No. 7, in the same street, and on searching •their houses, Watkins.found nearly the whole of the stolen property. They were at once handcuffed and taken to Hertfordshire to be exam i ne d, p repara t or y t o their being committed for trial. Yesterday a public meeting was held at Chelsea for contributing to the relief of the distress in the Highlands and Islands of Scotland. Several gentlemen addressed the meeting, and a resolution was unanimously agreed to for en tering into a subscription, for the relief of the existing distress, and a committee was appointed for carrying the object of the meeting into effect. It was stated that 86,000 persons were destitute of food, and that a subscription of 100,0001. would be necessary for their effectual relief. PLUCKING SHEEP.—This sounds strangely on English ears in parts of Ireland ; however, the practice de signated by the term is but too familiar. *Says the Map Constitution, " The practice of plucking and shearing sheep has latterly become so very prevalent in this neighbourhood, that unless some effectual check be placed upon it, the people will be obliged either to abandon the keeping of sheep alto gether, or not suffer them to remain out at night, which would be a great hardship. Scarcely a night passes that the wool is not either plucked or shorn off sheep for miles about this town. Oil Friday night last, between fifteen and twenty sheep, the property of several individuals, were stripped of their wool in the neighbourhood of Curnamorrow, within two miles of this town. In fact, we could enumerate many instances of this species of robbery and cruelty towards the poor animals." A melancholy and fatal catastrophe occurred at Frankley, near Bradford, one niqht last week. Mrs. Deve rell, widow of the late Mr. John Deverell, has lived for many yeara in almost total seclusion, scarcely admitting a servant to intrude on the privacy of her apartment. About ten o'clock, the domestics of the house perceived a small fire, which ap peared to proceed from her room ; but as the door was always locked and bolted o❑ the inside, they had no means of obtain ing ingress but by a window. On entering, the unfortunate recluse was discovered to be completely suffocated by the smoke of a fire which had originated in the ignition of the bed furni ture ; and though the flames were speedily extinguished, the poor sufferer bad brvatbed her last, AItRIVALS. \Vheit.

Lord Pon sonby seems inclined to defer.his • departure ; it is affirmed that he has been desired to do so by his Court. The Noble Lord is now tit daggers drawn with Mr. Urquhart, and the dispute ttssumes a serious character. Nobody knows which of the two is in the right—each of them accuses the othrr of having neglected his duty and sacrificed the interest of England through petty selflove. ,Lord Ponsonby, espe cially, lays to the charge of Mr. Urquhart, that he did act consider his situation, but looked on himself in some manner as Ambassador, which not only has giver occasion to all sorts of misunderstandings and abuses in the legation itself, but also in all the intercourse with other legations, and with the Porte itself. On the other hand, Mr. Urquhart affirms that he was was sent hither to take the management of affairs, because Lord Ponsonby was not sufficiently acquainted with the state of things in the East, and it was thought necessary at Lon don to have somebody on the spot who would be able to give him information on the subject, and to give his Lord ship the necessary impulse, Both may be in the right, and it is likely that the responsibility of the whole dispute may fall on Lord Palmerston, who brought such hostile elements into contact. Great anxiety is felt here for the issue. It is certain that Mr. Urquhart will not voluntarily quit the field, and that he hopes to place himself in a posi tion from which it may not be easy to dislodge him, for he intends to settle at Constantinople as a private individual, and to trade in politics on his own account, in case his Go vernment should decide against him in favour of Lont Ponsonby, and recall him. Nobody can deny that Mr. Urquhart has rendered important services to his country men. The negotiations for the regulation of a general Tarifr stands still. It is very strangely affirmed that Lord Pon sonby has found means to defeat all the hopes that were entertained on this subject. This by no means harmonizes with the notions of the freedom of trade of all countries of which so much parade is made in London. _ Nrvertheless, it is true that the British Ambassador now dectsres against the principle. of fixing equal duties of customs for all na tions that trade with the Porte, and endeavours to prove that it would be bqter if each Stat made a separate treaty with the Porte. The ground of such a sudden change of opinion is not known ; but it is to be regretted that it occa sions great embarrassment and prejudice to those who thought that an arrangement would shortly be concluded which seemed to be agreeable to all nations. More troops have lately been sent to Asia, whence it is inferred that the Porte still distrusts Mehemet Xi, and thinks little of his friendly assurances. It is believed that the Sultan's portrait, which was lately removed from all the public buildings, will be shortly re placed in them. The Sultan seems to be at a loss in his political and religious opinions, and to wave between the old and the new. This is a circumstance much to be re gretted, which has great influence on public life, and is very injurious to the nation, measures being ordered to-day which are revoked to-morrow, and the contrary. For some time past this city has been the rendezvous of numerous specu lators, who would turn the source of the national wealth to their own advantage. The Porte•is pestered with projects of all sorts, the ostensible object of which is to relieve its great financial embarrasments, but which in the end would only fill the pockets of the projectors. Happily, the in dolence of the Turks does not allow them to go astray in such a dangerous field, and we may rest assured that the adepts will derive no other advantage from their experi ments than that of having become acquainted with Con stantinople and its beautiful situation.—Allgenzeine Zeitung, April 8.

We are happy to say ,that the doubts created in the mind of many perions as to the guilt of the above con— vict, by the specious line of defence adopted by him at his first examination, and in which he persisted up to the moment of sentence being passed on him, will we doubt not be dispelled when we announce that he has at length con fessed his guilt. After the able and affecting address of the Recorder, when passing sentence on the afternoon of Wednesdav last, the convict Greenacre appeared very depressed, and shortly after being removed to his cell he begged the turnkey would inform the Sheriffs that he desired an in terview with them. Information of the requea was stantly conveyctl to them, when Sir James Duke and 1n14., colleague immediately left the Court and proceeded to Ili; cell. On seeing them Greenacre addressed them a clear and firm voice, and said that,, matters havirl i g now arrived at the worst, it might perhaps be as we.ll for him to acknowledge that the statement he him! previously made was not founded on truth, the fact beillg that after his arrival with his unfortunate victim at Carpe o - ter's-place on the afternoon of Saturday, the 24th of Decer n - her last (Christmas-eve), a quarrel arose between them fen the subject of the propel ty each had represented themselv to possess, when the deceased (Mrs. Brown), using stro►i language towards him for deceiving her, so exasperated hi nt that he took up a piece of wood resembling the roller f 3 r ajack-towel or for a piece of silk, which at the moment w a lying near him, and struck her violently on the right e 3 +e, which blow inflicted the injury that has been so ably dk scribed by Mr. Girdwood and the other surgeons at the d ferent examinations and at the trial. The blow instantly stunned her ; but he prevented her falling to the ground • seizing hold of the chair. He then placed a pail which wa: standing in the room by the side of the chair, and, holdiniv her neck over it, he with a common table•knife, cut 11 , s:- throat, and held her in that position until the blood hi id ceased to flow. He then sat himself down for a short tin at: for the purpose of reflecting what he was to do with tls: body. Various modes suggested themselves to his mint, but at length (within an hour after he had committed thin horrid deed) he determined on its dismemberment in tli4i revolting manner which has been so often described. After dissevering the head and limbs from the trunk, be put the; former in a bag, and, placing it under hisarm, he proceedesi with it to the house of Mr. Evan Davis, in Bartholomew.-- close, Smithfield, and made the statement relative to I, having quarrelled with Mrs. Brown, and the marriage ha r— ing been broken off, which has been described in the el i dence of that individual and his wife. After leaving tht it house, which was about eleven o'clock on the night at Christmas-eve, he proceeded on to Stepney, when takit the head out of the bag, he threw it into the Regent' a - canal, not far from the spot (Ben Jonson's lock) where it was on the Gth of January discovered. He then inquir.*l whether the privy of the house, No. 6, in Carpenter's-plat 0 , in which the horrible tragedy was committed, had bets I searched, and on being answered in the affirmative, but th nothing of a suspicious nature had been found there, he e: pressed his surprise at the circumstance, declaring that pr vious to the blood coagulating he threw the contents of tt.tic pail. down it. __ The Sheriffs then questioned him as to the time. carte manner in which he disposed of the remaining portic,as of the body of the unfortunate woman, but he sudden ly be came very taciturn, merely declaring in the most solemn manner tint the female prisoner, Gale, had atot the slightest knowledge he had committed the horeid crime until after he was taken into custody. It will be seen that his statement of having the lead in his possession when he called on Mr. Davis is r;orro horated by the evidence of that person's wife, she 'naving, deposed at the' examinations and trial that he ha ill a bag with him, containing what, in her opinion, appea'red to be a quartern loaf. ILLUSTRATIONS OF HUMAN LIFE. BY 'THE AUTHOR OF "THEMAINE."—fhese illustrations have thoe e di visions ; or we should rather say that there are three se p arate stories, or sources of interest.
