" In talent, acquirement, sound thinking, and good writing, Mr. Laing belongs t o the same class of travellers as Arthur Young and Alexander Humbeldt—every sensible reader will rise from the pe rusal of his bock with the conviction that, next to Humboldt, he is the first of living travellers."—London and Westminster Review. London : Longman, Orme, and Co. The letter, which is forcibly written and contains argu ments for the adoption of the Ballot which we deem un answerable, concludes with a suggestion to the practicability and .reasonableness of which the Tories themselves can scarcely object with any show of decency or regard for free dom of franchise. Lord Langford's plan is, " that in every case where bribery or intimidation is proved against a bo rough or county, or the Members are unseated for improper conduct by the Committees, a new writ shall issue, and an Act of Parliament be passed for the franchise to be taken by Ballot ; so that the effect of the Ballot will be tried in the very places where bribery,. corruption, or intimidation is proved to have existed."

On the 15th the pressure was still more severe, we being then among very heavy ice, several masses of which came in contact with the ship, and carried away her main keel and stern-post, besides all her stern-frame under water. leaving the keel projecting two feet on the left side, where it still remains. This pressure lifted her out of the water— fortunately for us, as she was making from six to seven feet water in an hour. She remained thus until the llth of July, when she was cut out by a 34-feet saw. During the nipping season you may fancy it very pleasant, with a temperature from 50 to 60 degrees, besides a great deal of sickness. We buried three men, and had already a large sick list of from 25 to 30, out of a small crew of 60, men and officers. We have at this moment ten who are unable to do any work, all from scurvy. As for not going on with the expedition, when I tell you that we have had more than once five feet water in the ship, and all the pumps working, and never less than two, I do not think you will blame us, as we had no one at hand to give us any assistance ; besides the ship is only held together by her chain cable being passed round her in three pieces, as well as the run being secured by rope-lashings, &c. We were very fortunate in having fine weather from the time of our starting to within 400 miles of the Orkney Islands, where we fell in with a very heavy gale at north-east. We suc ceeded in keeping the ship afloat, but that was all—she having very nearly gone through our fingers ; indeed, she is so had, that we were obliged to run for the nearest land, which is this place."

Original Letters at 30, Broad-street, Bloomsbury. To Mr. Grinsatene, Broad-street, Bloomsbury. Ophthalmic Hospital, Charing-Cross. Si it,—Peroeiving at in one of your bills my name is mentioned in u nion with that elm late patient Mr. Latch fi eld I beg leave to confirm his testimony, and state the g reat benefit derived ' by the use of your ex. cellent herbasernis eye-snuff in his ease, which was one ef obstinate chronic ophthalmia, acoompaniod by opacity of the 'carnets, and a varionse state of the eonjunotional vessels. His ease was the first under my notice in whittle the preparation was used; but, being struck by the ad vantageous results, I resolved to lay aside prejudices, and advise its use in some eases in my practise at this hospital. The benefit was great, and has lad me still further te recommend it, but, unfortunately, the funds of the hospital are law, and our patients too often cannot afford the purchase ef your sitar, it being, from its prise, almost as unattainable to the poor m patent medicine would be. If it be not asking too much, could you forma any arrangement by which the really indigent patients of this institution Gould be supplied with the eye-snuff at a lower price, os producing a re commendation to that effect, signed by me. If you mould, I would ask you te be so kind as to write to use here on the subject ; in doing so you would perform a great act of charity, and the obligation would be felt, not only by the poor whore you would relieve, but by your obedient servant, J. G. GUTH/tIE. Mr. Grin:name has complied with the above humane request ef Dr. Guthrie The Market to-day was well attended ; sales were limited An extent, although at a decline in prices. During the whole of the past week, although some partial showers have occurred, the weather has been favourable for the almost uninterrupted progress of harvest, and a great deal of Corn has been secured in good order throughout this district; in consequence of which, although with imports to a moderate extent, sales have been very much stagnated here and in all our country markets; the very finest qualities of English and of fresh sweet Foreign Wheat, duty paid, have alone been saleable, at a decline of about 2d. to 3d. per 701b5., and some trivial parcels of new English and Irish of very good quality at 7s. 9d. to Bs. 6d. per 701b5., whilst all descriptions of old Irish have been very unsaleable at any reasonable reduction, and the prices thereof almost nominal. The finest description of Oats being quite scarce have supported last quotations, but all inferior kinds have been offering 2d. to 3d. per 451b5., and old Oatmeal at 2s. to 3s. per 2401b5. lower.. Fine Malt fully supported last quotations ; of fine Malting Barley there is none here, and but little for feeding or distillation, nominally as last quoted. Beans Is. per quarter, Pease Is a 25., and inferior qualities 3s. a 4s. per quarter lower. Flour of very superior qualities fully supported our last highest quotations, but inferior quali ties might have been bought 2s. to 3s. per 2801b5. lower. The duties on Oats, Pease, and Rye from Foreign ports are this week increased Is. 6d. per quarter; on other Grain no alteration. The expected reduction in the duty of Is. per quarter on Wheat has not occurred, nor is it now so likely—it is therefore probable that duty, 28s. Bd. per quarter, which has last week been paid on about 2,500 quarters, will be fur ther paid this week or next on most of the small quantity of fine fresh Foreign Wheat now here, in bond. Sweet Foreign Flour is quite scarce ; the recent imports from Copenhagen have been engaged before arrival—would sell readily at 255. per barrel.

The following extract from a letter, (dated Loch Silly Ireland, September 4,) from an officer on board the Terror, to a gentleman in the neighbourhood of Dumfries, gives a narrative of the voyage, and explains the causes of its failure : _ 4WD " Very shortly after my joining the Terror, we started in tow of a steam-boat from Chatham, and, from strong northerly winds, were obliged to anchor in Aberdeen Bay, on June 20, 1836 ; since which, up to this time, we have not let go an anchor, or been in harbour, or had any one but what belonged to the ship on board. We made the ice at the entrance of Hudson Straits on July 29, on en tering which we found the strait very full of heavy ice, through which we continued boring, and making our way to the north west. Passed Mill Island on the 18th Au gust, when it was determined to try the passage along the north shore of Southampton Island, and up the frozen strait, hoping by this way to reach our destination (Re pulse or Wager Bay), as Captain Lyon, in the Griper, on the last expedition, completely failed on going south-about. Towards the latter end of August we found the ice very close, more particularly as we neared the frozen strait ; but, supposing the season not too far advanced, it was thought best to press on, for which every possible exer tion was made, and we succeeded in making a little towards our port each day until the middle of September, when we became completely beset with ice, and drifted about with it, influenced by the tide or winds. At this time we should have been very happy to have tried the south pas sage, but it was impossible to have got the ship out, as no water could be seen from the mast head in any direction. " The prospect of reaching Repulse or Wag er Ba y this year became rather faint, as the temperature now became low, with young bay ice forming to a considerable thick ness every night. Winter quarters for the ship became a serious consideration, which we hoped to find on the north coast of Southampton Island. But no ; in a very short 1 time we got frozen in, in the middle of a large flow of ice , about nine miles in circumference, where we were doomed to spend many a dreary day, without having the ship se. cured. We drifted about with the ice until the 18th of February, when it broke up, placing the ship in very great danger, as, from this time up to the 15th of March, there was nearly a constant pressure upon us, caused by the is being almost always in motion f rom th e tid es and strong winds. The ship, up to the 15th, was so much shaken that we were prepared to leave her, and trust to the boats ; the ship's sides were obliged to be shoved out b) extra beams, to prevent their corning in upon us, as well CLONMELL Per 11. 95 0 13 6 44 0 s. d.

Vidocq appeared before one of the tribunals of Paris, to complain of one of his clerks, who had robbed -, him of the sum of 92f. It appears not to have been his intention originally to proceed against his unfaithful servant ; but the report of his having been robbed having got abroad, was exaggerated by some of the papers, and the commissary •f police urged him to take measures for punishing the offender. As the charge was not very rigourously pressed the prisoner was acquitted.

London : Fisher, Son, and Co. TALE OF TRUCK. There was not happier man in the principality of South Wales than Walter Evans—there was not a better father —there was not a better husband. He was a truly happy man was Walter Evans—his wife was a good kind of a creature, who loved her husband fondly, and his children were stout healthy bairns whom he loved as a father should love his offspring. Walter Evans was a miner, and had worked for years for the same master, who respected him as a good, honest, sober workman, and whom Walter hoped too to serve as long as his Maker might permit him to live. Thus had Walter Evans's life passed for nearly twenty years, and thus he often prayed it might always pass. But time has strange changes in his train, and death struck Walter Evans's master in the prime of a good life, and removed him from earth to, it is to be hoped, a better resting place. It was a sore trial to many a poor man to lose so good a master, and the state in which his affairs were left occasioned them still greater uneasiness. The iron trade had been for years depressed, and the affairs of Walter's late master were, it appeared, far from satis factory ; in fact he had died insolvent ; and after a deal of quibbling and feeing of lawyers, the works passed from the family into the hands of a Company. " Walter," said his wife, some months after the change we have spoken of, " I want some money to buy grocery ; I am going up the town, and I will get it at Mr. Smith's. Why do you look so, Walter, I am in a hurry—give me the money, there's a good man." There was something in Walter's look that might well have excited his wife's sur prise, for he was pale, and shook like an aspen leaf. "It is no use, Mary," at length he said, " I will tell you all—bad news may as well be told first as last. lam no longer my own master, Mary. To-day, when I went for my wages, Mr. —, the clerk, directed me to go to a new shop they have been building, and there I was told that it was re quired I should receive my wages in goods, and that unless I dealt at the shop' I should be discharged ;" and here the man sat down sullenly and moody. " I would have spurned their offer," at length he said, " I would have as serted my right to the labour of my hands, but for you, Mary, and our children. I could almost die before I would forego my h onest c l a i m to di spose o f t h e earnings of my toil, but I cannot see you starve. " F or t h e woman , she said nothing—but she felt a feeling of humbleness she had never felt before. It had been a pride to her to expend their weekly store in providing for her children, but she now felt she was dependent on another—she could no longer exercise her experience, or bestow her little patron age amongst her neighbours—she must seek the " shop" for everything—take what was given her—nor dare to grumble, lest retaliation should find out her 'husband. From that day the cottage of Walter Evans was un altered place—the man was an altered man—his wife wild children no longer presented the same healthy, clean appearance— their cottage was no longer the abode of comfort, since the spirit of independence had passed from its innrates. The man sought the beer-house, and the woman did the same— both were grown reckless—their former character fled— and those who did not know their history, of',;en wondered at the change that had come over Walter Evans and his wife. They were but one of the thousand victims of the system of truck.—Card if C'brJnicle.

" Sir,—The Commissioners of Police inclose for the information of the Poor Law Commissioners' returns from the Divisions of the Metropolitan Police, showinc, for the last three months the number of persons found ° by the Police in each, in a state of destitution. From these re turns it appears that difficulties still occur in obtaining that immediate relief which the extreme urgency of some of the cases demand, and all plea and claim for any relief is resisted in others on the ground that the party should seek for it elsewhere, perhaps in a distant parish ; although in all fit cases of relief appears to be administered more readily and effectually now than before the passing of the Poor Law Amendment Act, and the whole amount of mendicancy within the Police district has not increased. The Commissioners beg leave to call the attention of the Poor Law Commissioners to the points to which they have above alluded, and they will be glad to receive sugges tions, arising out of the present mode of administering the law as may enable the police to act more effectually in cases of destitute persons of whom they are obliged to take cognizance. " I have the honour to be, Sir, " Your most obedient Servant, "RICHARD MAYNE." " To E. Chadwick, Esq. " Poor Law Commission-office, Somerset-house, Sept. 6, 1837. " Gentlemen,—l have read to the Poor Law Commis sioners your letter of the 24th ult., in which you give in stances where the police constables have found in the streets persons in a state of destitution, and who were refused relief on the ground that they belonged to distant parishes. " It was satisfactory to the Commissioners to learn from you that cases of destitution and emergency occur less fre quently than previously to the passing of the Poor Law Amendment Act ; and that a large proportion of those which do occur are carefully treated by the officers charged with the administration of relief to the destitute. It was also satisfactory to the Commissioners to learn that within the metropolitan districts the amount of mendicity has not increased beyond that which has heretofore prevailed. " It appears nevertheless that much misunderstanding prevails as to the state of the law on the subject ; and the Commissioners deem it advisable to state for your infor mation the nature of the relief available for cases of actual destitution, as well as the mode in which the administra tion of the law may be mnde subservient to the suppression of all pretexts for mendicancy. If any person state that he have no food, and that he is destitute, or otherwise ex press or signify that he is in danger of perishing unless re lief be given to him, than any officer charged with the ad. ministration of relief is bouud, unless he have presented to him some facts or reaspnable evidence to rebut such state ment, to give relief to suck destitute person in the mode prescribed by the law. " If any person meet a wayfarer or other person asking relief on the ground of destitution, then such person may direct the destitute person to the proper officer, by whom the relief must be necessarily administered, unless anything shall appear to that officer to show at once and conclusively the statement of destitution to be false. These directions are at the choice of any subject, and may be given ver bally or in writing, and the Poor Law Commissioners conceive it to be in some measure the more especial duty of any peace officer to conduct or direct such destitute person to the place where the relief will be administered. " The overseers are not relieved from the responsibility of administerit , relief according to the regulations prescribed under the authority of the Poor Law Amendment Act. By the 54th section any overseer is, in cases ' of sudden and urgent necessity, required to give such temporary re lief as the case shall require, in articles of absolute neces sity; but not in money, and whether the applicant for re lief be settled in the parish where he shall apply for relief or not but application may now in most districts be made to— " 1. The relieving officers. " 2. The master of the workhouse, and " 3. To the board of guardians when it is sitting. " The duties of the relieving officers with relation to such cases, as those duties are prescribed in the Commissioners' regulations, are as follows: " To receive all applicationi for relief, and to examine into the merits and circumstances of each case, and report the same to the guardians at their next weekly meeting. " In cases of sudden and urgent necessity to give such temporary relief as each case shall require, either by placing the pauper in the workhouse, or affording relief out of the house in articles of absolute necessity, but not in money, whether the applicant for relief be settled in any parish in the union or not. " As soon as he shall have had notice of the sickness of, or of any injury received by, any pauper, to notify the fact to the medical officer ; and in the mean time to furnish such relief as the emergency ;of the case may call for, and also furnish such further relief, in or out of the workhouse, as th 3 case, upon the certificate of the medical officer, may ap. pear to require. " To report to the Guardians at their weekly meeting all cases in which temporary relief shall have been given by the Churchwardens and Overseers of the poor, or cases of sud den and urgent necessity as hereinafter provided." The duties of the medical officers, with relation to such cases are thus prescribed : " To attend duly and punctually upon all paupers out of the workhouse falling or continuityg sick within the limits of his district, including all paupers whom, by law, any parish of the union may be bound to relieve, whether belonging or not belonging to such parish, and whether under suspended orders of removal or otherwise, and to supply all such sick paupers with all necessary medicines and appliances." The master of the workhouse is bound " to receive into the house paupers admitted in manner hereinafter men tioned, and to cause them to be examined by the medical officer, and to cleanse, clothe, and place them in the proper wards." By the first article of the workhouse regulatioas, " Pau pers shall be received into the workhouse in any one of the following modes, and no other, viz.:— " 1. By an order of the guardians to be signified in writ ing by their clerk. " 2. By a provisional order in writing, signed by an over seer, churchwarden, or relieving officer. " 3. By the master of the workhouse, without any such order, in any case of sudden or urgent necessity." " On the occurrence of any case of destitution or of sud den and pressing emergency, the better course will be to apply to the nearest paid officer of the union, the relieving officer, or the master of the workhouse, who best know the most efficient remedies applicable for the relief of such cases, and who have the best means of applying them. The Commissioners will feel it their duty to make those officers responsible in their situations for any serious neglect ; for the bad consequences of any omission to give prompt and adequate relief in any case of real destitution and emer gency. For relief to be effectual, it must be given at the ,ime when the emergency shall occur, to the destitute per- The question as to any existing means of repayment, or as to the place to which the destitute person may be chargeable, it will be the duty of the officer to reserve for investigation after the pressing we.nt shall have been relieved. " The relief of cases of simple destitution are the pro vince of the officers appointed for the administration of re lief under the poor-law. Where any person who has been originally taken into the custody of the police for any other reason than that of simple destitution, falls into the state of destitution whilst in custody, title Commissioners conceive that the relief should be give' out of the means provided for the support and proper care of prisoners whilst in cus tody. All persons who are not. casually destitute, but who beg as a profession, the Poor Law Commissioners submit should he dealt with under the Vagrant Act, and be appre hended by the police and. taken before the Magistrate for his award of punishment.. In those cases which the union or parish officers find to be cases of imposture, or where, after the destitution shall have been reUeved, it is ascer tained to have been brought about by misconduct, or by any act of vagrancy, then it will be t:nrt duty of those offi cers to give the offenders into the cu.st.ody of the police that they may be taken before the Magistrate. " That which the Coremissiorvers are most anxious to have made known is, that the ref' ief of actual destitution, in cases of emergency, should e.P.ways precede the investi gation of any question as to its cause or as to the liability of any other parties than the pi .rish to contribute to it. " The Commissioners dire'zt me to express their satis faction on perceiving from per usal of the returns from the P division, which includes the parishes of Camberwell and Lambeth, that no cases of destitution have of late been found in the streets of that division. In the parishes of Camberwell and Lambeth, the Commissioners are informed that the relief in the workhc ai se is ably administered, and the workhouse freely offered to all destitute objects. The Poor-law Commissioners t rust that in other districts, so soon as proper workhouse e .ccommodation is provided, the rate-payers will lave comp' pr Security that all proper cases EAST INDIA SHIPPING.

A very painful sensation was created in this town on Wednesday in consequence of a report that Mr. John Raby (lately a Lieutenant of the Bth Scotch Regiment of In fantry in the British Legion) had been killed on the Hinck .. ley-road, about four miles from Leicester. Mr. Ruby's youth, and fine handsome figure (standing six feet two inches, though he had not completed his 19th year), toge ther with the fact of his having been in service in Spain (where he was twice wounded), occasioned almost universal sympathy on the dreadful report of his untimely fate being confirmed. The inquest was held at the Red Cow (Ng, K. Walker, Esq. and several friends of the deceased being present), when the following particulars were elicited : Owing to the privations of the campaign (the forces fre quently having to subsist on brandy and cigars alone for nearly two successive days), Mr. Raby had contracted a habit of smoking, which he was unable to indulge in at home in consequenco of the illness of one of his brothers, who is in the last stage of a consumption. On this account it was his practice to ride to a neigtl;ouring village, once or twice a week, where he could indulge his propensity without annoying any one ; and among other places he often called at the Red Cow, on the Hinckley-road, about four miles from Leicester. On Tuesday afternoon he came on a grey mare, about four o'clock, and after enjoying his cigar, he left the Red Cow, soon after seven o'clock, being perfectly sober, to return to Leicester. William Branston, servant to Mr. Raby, stated that he had examined the mare, and found a wound on each hind hock, as if she had been down on her haunches, and then fallen on her near side, and wounded her hip. He had never seen the mare rear, but be was of opinion that she bad been pulled up sharply, and that she had fallen on her rider, having noticed while un dressing the body, that the outside of the deceased's left knee and ancle were much lacerated and swollen, which would correspond with the wounds on the mare. After a few minutes consultation, the Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental Death," and the body was shortly afterwards conveyed to Holy Cross Chapel, where it was yesterday consigned to the family vault, constructed a few months ago to receive the remains of the father of this lamented youth —Leicester4hire Mercury. FIRE AT BROMLEY.--011 Sunday afternoon, about half-past three o'clock, intelligence was received at the chief station of the Fire Establishment, -in Watling street, that the farm belonging to Mr. Wells, at Bromley, Kent, was on fire. The farm was but a twelvemonth back destroyed by fire ; the work of an incendiary, who has escaped the vigilance of the police. It appears that the fire was discovered as early as ten o'clock in the morning, and then by one of the labourers employed on the pre mises ; it was perceived raging in a stack of hay, which contained upwards of forty loads, and in the farm-yard, which was adjoining, on either side, by twenty ricks of barley, hay, wheat, clover, and pease. In a short period the flames, added by a strong wind from the south, rapidly extended to the stacks, and very quickly assumed such a dreadful aspect that the destruction of the whole farm was anticipated. By six o'clock in the evening of Sunday, the flames were so far under that all tears of their extension were at an end. The property destroyed must be (Treat, to the amount of 3 , 0 001. Five large and, we believe , stacks, one of clover, one of hay (this year), one of pease, and two of oats, arc entirely consumed, and seven or eight ss•riously damaged. FANATICISM IN GERMANY-At the small but populous city of Falkenstein, about six leagues from Zwickau. in Saxony, a woman was found, about three weeks ago, drowned in a well. There was nothing to prove that this woman had been the voluntary cause of her own death, nor anything to lead to such a conclusion, unless it lie the circumstance that she had I),.en observed by her acquaint ance to manifest some dejection for several days previously. On the day of her funeral an immense mob assembled in the church-yard, to resist the interment of the body in consecrated ground. . All remonstrances on the part of the magistrates and the clergymen of the place proved fruitless, cud on the arrival of a small detachment of military, the rioters prepared to offer resistance. Under these circum stances the magistrates deemed it advisable not to proceed to extrcualtks, and the body was buried outside the church yard. The Governmont, however, disapproved of this con cession, and sent a higher magistrate, with a stronger de tachment of military, to inquire into the occurrence. Seven of the ringleaders were arrested, after which the body was I dug up again, and buried in the church-yard, without an y 1 further attemp t at opposition, Nearly ready, in 2 vols. post Bvo.
