LIVES OF THE QUEENS OF ENGLAND. Vol IX. By Agnes Strickland. As this voluminous and laborious work progresses towards its completion, the promise which had been afforded by its commencement is being very happily verified. Amidst all her wearisome researches, and amidst all her tedious collation of manuscripts, some times spurious and frequently almost illegible, Miss Strickland must feel herself sustained and even in cited to still greater exertions by the reflection that she is contributing to the literature of her country an historical production which must preserve her name in perpetual remembrance. It was a graceful and ambitious project, in the reign of her Most Excellent Majesty, our Sovereign Lady Victoria, that of writing a series of biographies of the Queens consort and regnant of these realms ; and admirably is that graceful and ambitious project being realised by our authoress. Miss Strickland takes no superficial view of the oc currences she has undertaken to narrate ; she gives us no mere second-hand information ; she is not contented, as are some modern historiographers (so called), with weaving together the threads of a variety of narratives already pub lished, and then of embroidering them with pictu resque language and personal conceits. Lofty and beautiful as is this latter species of composition, it has not a sufficient attraction for the lady who has penned these nine goodly volumes. She is ambitious of producing something possessing more novelty. Even on her title-pages she divulges the inquisitive and industrious cast of her intellect, by quoting that couplet of Beaumont— " The treasures of antiquity laid up In old historic rolls, I opened." So peculiarly is this manifested in the single volume now submitted to our examination, that upwards of two hundred autograph letters and original and perti nent documents, never published before, are here either transcribed in extenso, or are epitomized by the writer. Under the auspices of the late Secretary for the Home Department, and of the present Prime Minister of France, in the Archives au Iloyaume de France ; and the State Paper-office at Duke-street; from diaries written in the cloisters of Chaillot, and from the sprawling charac ters formed by the ancient burgesses of Edinburgh; have Miss Strickland and her congenial sister been taking transcripts with the zeal of literary devotees, and the discriminating sagacity of alumni. It would be almost impossible after the expenditure of so much intelligence and inquiry, that such an undertaking could be in any essential particular a failure. But when, after having accumulated so many and such valuable materials, the writer was endowed with a capacity for reproducing those materials in limpid diction, for narrating events with consecutive clear ness, and for estimating a character in its entirety, suc cess became matter of absolute necessity. Among the many illustrious personages who have shared the thrones of our British monarchs, not one is invested with so pathetic and attractive a celebrity as the subject of the present volume—the beautiful *and un fortunate Mary Beatrice of Modena, spouse of King James 11. In comparison with the virtues of that brave and most gentle lady, those of Catharine of Arragon seem of a lesser lustre. Beside the desolate romance of her misfortunes, the magnificent glories of Eliza beth are scarcely endued with an aspect of fascina tion. With maternal affections equally intense with those of Margaret of Anjou, Mary of Modena had less of that great Queen's masculine and almost un queenly resolution. Her history is fraught with the most moving and solemn catastrophes, while it is coloured throughout by the jaundice of melancholy. That history had never been written until it was undertaken by Miss Strickland, and beautifully has Miss Strickland told of the loveliness, of the virgin purity, of the transitory splendour and subsequent sorrows, of the heart-moving pilgrimage and brooding widowhood of that noble heroine. Even in the classic loveliness of her appearance, Mary Beatrice has a claim upon our admiration. The portraits of her by Lely and Kneller, assure us that her countenance was admirable, and the pensive expression of her features of itself indicates the melancholy nature of her story. Born on the sth October, 1658, in the palace at Modena — the native city of Tasso and Corregio—the future Queen of England was fortunate in the possession of a mother eminently qualified to tutor her mind with those precepts of morality and philosophy which are the surest bucklers against misfortune. United to James the Second, then Duke of York, Mary of Modena wt's introduced at the tender age of fifteen to the most profligate court this country; or possibly any other, ever knew. In the midst of all its brazen debauchery, however, the young Duchess of York preserved not merely an unsullied character, but was conspicuous for a dignity and self-respect worthy of a princess. The events with which this splendid pattern of a woman was afterwards so intimately associated, and the trying nature of which only tended the more to the development of new virtues in her disposition, are too familiar to every English reader to render a merely casual reference to them less than an imper tinence. Her courage under an accumulation of terrors and difficulties; her maternal tenderness in moments of personal jeopardy; her untiring and pas sionate fondness for the generous but unfortunate sovereign to whom she was united; her cone stant and romantic devotion to his memory after his decease, and while she was sustaining the desolation of her widowhood in the nunnery of Chaillot are qualities which must ever demand the unqualified panegyrics of the historian. It is impressed with these considerations that the Hon. ,George Sydney Smythe has pictured two ladies seated together in a chamber at Versailles, tell ing each other of their sufferings and denials during life ; and that he closes that description with these affecting words :—" And their hope is, that when the spouse of Christ shall have summoned her glad array to meet the bridegroom, among the humblest of her handmaidens may be numbered the names of Francois de Mamtenon and Marie of Modena and England." Beyond all these gentler characteristics, however, the latter evinced others of an. heroic and even chivalrous daring. As the Girondists were wont to assemble in the saloons of Madame Roland, and to receive from her lips additional incitements towards the development of the great revolution and the political regeneration of France, so did the Jacobite party derive'new stimu loUs to enterprise, and receive fresh inducements to persevere, from the courageous wife of James, and the mother of the so-called Pretender. We must, nevertheless, afford our readers a specimen of the na tural and yet poetic style o f Miss trickland's narra tive; and we could not adduce a more appropriate passage than the following description of the flight d er p 9 ri th e , e w e a ; s i a t p w po e i g n a ted su f o or . of Queen Mary Beatrice from Whitehall, in company with the infant Prince. the departure" The fol following ionfg thed day, December morning was ushered in with • chapels and houses ; day, mbuettrneopeSlaisb.baTthhsetillness hallowed it in the turbu lenttumults—burning of Catholic D ue ec en em an b When the evening approached , rho share his perils ; husband to permit her to remain and t tid ings of evil import arrived fro m pare Q e lf m h e p l k o i rnegdd her four and twenty hours, and tha d him.'

About midnight in and armed, ascended by a secret staircase to the apartment of the King, bringing with him some part of the disguise which he had caused to be prepared for the Queen, and told the King all was ready for their Majesty's departure. I then,' pursues he, 'retired into another room, where the count de Lauzun and I waited till the Queen was ready. Her Majesty had, meantime, confided her secret to Lady S trickland, the lady o f the bed chamber, who was in waiting that night. As soon as the Queen was attired, we entered the chamber. The Count de Lauzun and I had secured some of the jewels on our persons, in case of accidents, although their Majesties were at first opposed to it; but their generous hea rts w ere only occupiedin cares for . the safety and com f ort of their royal infant. At two o'clock, we descended by another stair, answering to that from the king' s cabinet, le a d i ngto t the e p ap er a s r o tm ns entof Madame who prince had been carried secretly some time befo re .

She turned a fare well, and follow e d by th e two but mute nur infant, crossed the great g allery in silence , with her sleeping the backstairs, preceded by silence, stole down St. Victor, who had th e keys, and passing throu g h a postern door into the privy gardens, quitted Whitehall for ever. A coach was wait ing at the gate, which St. Victor ha cl borrowed of his friend Signor Ferichi, the Florentine resident, had been for his own use. On our wa as if it pursues d. he, ' we had to pass six sentinels, who s t e custom, cried out, " Who goes there?" I replied accor ing . h to out hesitation, " A friend ; ' and when they sa tha t wlt had the master-key of the gates, they allowed me to p ass w ith ou t opposition. The Queen, w ith t h e Prince, his two nurses, and the Count de Lauzun, got into the coach, but to make all - sure, I placed myself by the coachman on the box to direct him. We drove to Westminster, and arrived safely at the place called the Horseferry, where I bad engaged a boat to wait for we. To prevent glad to find, is again in the field, smashing the "Grand Job—Purchase in the Army." The following are a few of the reasons adduced by Colonel Firebace for at once doing away with this iniquitous absurdity : " In any profession or trade, :in which 'people were allowed to purchase their situations' and sell them whenever they liked, or only forfeit them for some dis honest or immoral act; does it not follow as the natural ' effect, that men would generally shuffle over their duties rin the most careless and inefficient manner ? Is there ' any reason why there should be any particular deviation from this natural cause in the case of the army ? When a young man comes into the service by purchase, to fill up his idle time until he can be placed on the staff, until he comes of age, or his grandmother dies, from whom he expects a fortune, wha t particular benefit to him to study a profession he never intends to follow up ; still less, what possible interest can he take in the wel fare of the soldiers, on whom he never looks but as a set of working tools ? Would you have this fine gentleman go into a barrack-room to inquire if the men were well satisfied or comfortable, or could he condescend to learn the names, still less the dispositions of those under his command ? " Money, which carries all before it in England, does not lose its influence in the army ; the young men who have little or nothing beside their pay, and to whom the profession is their existence, in place of furnishing an example to these gilded interlopers, become worshippers of mammon, yield up their better judgment, and follow the lead of the men who jump over their heads, imitate their cold-hearted indifference, and separate themselves as much as possible from the men under their command, whom they learn to look upon more as mere instruments formed for their benefit than in the light of fellow sol diers deserving their sympathy; I appeal to all those who have experience in the army to say whether I have exaggerated the case. Look at the household troops, where the commissions, except those of adjutant and quarter-master, are all by purchase ; we see here the unfairness of giving men promotion by purchase en hanced to a great degree, for a captain of the Foot Guards raised to that rank by money, leaps over all the majors of the army, and may exchange with a lieutenant-colonel of infantry, and thus obtain the command of a regiment, about which he cannot possibly know much ; indepen dent of this injustice to the army in general, it is unfair to the body they belong to, for what possible reason can be assigned why a captain of the Foot Guards becomes a lieutenant-colonel, and that no such advantage attends the captains of the cavalry of the household ?" nation.' " A curious print of the times represents the boat in danger, and the two gentlemen assisting the rowers, who are labouring against wind and tide. The Queen is seated by the steersman, enveloped in a large cloak, with a hood drawn over her head; her attitude is expresslye of melancholy, and she appears anxious to conceal the little Prince who is asleep on her bosom, partially shrouded among the ample folds of her draperies. The other two females betray alarm. The engraving is rudely executed, and it is printed on coarse p a p er; b ut t h e d es i g n . is not without merit, being bold and original in conception and full of passion. It was probably intended as an appeal to the sympathies of the humbler olasses on behalf of the royal fugitive. " Our passage,' says the conductor of the enterprise, was rendered very difficult and dangerous by the vio lence of the wind, and the heavy and incessant rain. When we reached the opposite bank of the Thames, I called aloud by trtrec onA)sieur Dn'siona, - the page of the backstairs, who ought to have been there waiting with a coach and six, which had been engaged by Count de Lauzun. The page answered promptly, but told them that the coach was still at the inn, Thither St. Victor ran to hasten it, leaving Lauzun to protect the Queen. Her Majesty, meantime, withdrew herself and her little company, under the walls of the old church at Lambeth, without any other shelter from the wind and bitter cold, or any other consolation than that the rain had ceased.' " On that spot, which has been rendered a site of historic interest, by this affecting incident, the beauti ful and unfortunate consort of the last of our Stuart kings remained standing, with her infant son fondly clasped to her bosom, during the agonising interval of suspense caused by the delay of the coach, dreading every moment that he would awake and betray them by his cries. Her apprehension was unfounded. He had slept sweetly, while they carried him in the dead of night from his palace nursery to the water side; neither wind nor rain had disturbed him, he had felt none of the perils or difficulties of the stormy passage, and he continued wrapt in the same profound repose during this anxious pause, alike unconscious of his own reverse of fortune, and his mother's woe. " Mary Beatrice is said to have looked back with streaming eyes towards the royal home where her be loved consort remained, lonely and surrounded with , perils; and that she vainly endeavoured to trace out the e lights of Whitehall, among those that were reflected from the opposite shore, along th e dark rolling river. remained nedan historiansof hour under her babe, waiting for the coach , which through some that tpheeri walls od d declare, th re that the Queen old church with mistake never came, and that a hackney coach was, at last, procured with difficulty. This was not the case, for St. Victor found the coach and six all ready at the inn, which was within sight of the river: the delay, therefore, must have been comparatively brief, but when time is measured by the exigency of circumstances, mi nutes are lengthened into hours. " The haste and agitation in which St. Victor ap peared, when he came to inquire after the coach, com bined with his foreign accent and idiom, excited ob servation, meantime, in the inn-yard, wh ere a man with a lantern was on the watch, and when he saw the coach and six ready to start, ran out to reconnoitre, and made directly towards the spot where the queen was standing. I went,' says St. Victor, with all speed on the other aide of the way, fearing that he would re cognise the party on the bank. When I saw that he was actually approaching them, I made as if I wished to pass him, and put myself full in his path, so that we came in contact with each other, fell, and rolled in the mud together. We made mutual apologies for the acci dent. He went back without his light, which was ex tinguished by the fall, to dry himself, and I hastened to the carriage which was now near, and joined her Ma jesty, who got into the coach as before. The page was to hive returned, not having been intrusted with the secret ; but having recognised the Queen, his mistress, he wished to follow her. As we left the town,we en countered various of the guards. One of them said, ' Come and see, there is certainly a coach full of papists. But God willed it so, that they changed their purpose, for no one came near us. We had scarcely gone three miles, when we were overtaken by the Sieur Leyburn, one of the Queen's Equerries, on horseback, he had brought another horse and boots for me, which the King had, with inexpressible goodness, sent to enable me to perform my journey. I descended from the car riage, put on my boots, and mounted my horse in evil plight, what with my fall, my wet clothes, and the wind, which never ceased.'" THE COMIC HISTORY OF ENGLAND. Mr. A'Beckett, in the present number, runs laugh ing through the reigns of Edward 1., " whose legs were too long in proportion to his body, which gained him the nickname of Longshanks, though it would have been more respectful to have called him Daddy Long-Legs, in allusion to his being the father of his people," Edward 11., and begins that of Edward 111. This is a capital number of this right merrie history, and is capitally illustrated by Leech. Until the arrival of the royal fugitives in Calais, on Tuesday, December 11, at nine o'clock in the morning, the unfortunate Queen supported her afflictions with the same magnanimity, subjected to privatio ns even more d i s t ress ing than the foregoing. Here, h owever, i s a con t r ast most charmingly introduc e d b y t h e authoress , i n her ac count of the subsequ en t fli g h t of King J ame s. It is while crossing the c h anne l to France t h a t the sub • joined incident occurs : although " The tragedy of real life is sometimes strangely mingled with circumstances of a comic character, which appear the more ridiculous perhaps from the revulsion of u feelingnd ert the e e x y c r e e m e a n p t t in the midst of his di s t ress d uring t hi s melancholy o t f o ex p e r e o s d s u iv c e e ognriepre.rsons labouring voyage, felt his mirth irr es i st ibl y excited,Kwihnegn Jhe ames, the brave captain Trevanion attempting to fry some bacon for his refection in a frying -pan that had a hole in it, which that gallant officer was compelled to stop with a pitched rag ; at the si g ht o f this expedient the king gave way to immoderate laughter, which was renewed when the captain proceeded to tie a cord round an old cracked can, to make it in a condition to hold the drink they had prepared for him. A keen p e rception of the ludicrous is often a h a p py provision of nature to pre serve an overcharged heart from breaking under the pressure of mortal sorrow. It was well for the fallen majesty of England that he could laugh at things, which were melancholy indications of his calamitous reverse of fortune. The laughter, however, was medi cinal, for he ate and drank heartily of the coarse fare that was set before him, and always declared that he never enjoyed a meal more in his life." In the tenth and forthcoming volume of the " Lives of the Quee ns o f England," the clpse of this interest ing history is promised—the close, not of the reign, for that has long ended, but of the life,of Mary of Modena. Before we conclude these observations, we would express our regret at a circumstance which transpired almost immediately after the publication of this ni n th vo l ume. We do so with reluctance, but we feel compelled to the utterance in all honesty and simplicity. For the purpose of correcting a blunder (for it would be monstrous to designate it otherwise) in the work of a contemporary historian, the authoress endeavoured, by a letter in a public newspaper, to direct the finger of scorn at one of our most distinguished legislators. We regret this rash and ungentle proceeding.

Eugene Scribe's "Piquillo Alliaga" is con tinued, and we have some pleasant gossiping notes of a tour in Belgium and Germany, which we are glad t o see are to be continued. Mr. St. John, however, does not, in his editori a l c apa c ity, confine himself to merely entertaining—he mingles the useful in its proper proportions, and the article on " Free Trade in France" is superior to many an article on the free trade question which has appeared in periodicals of nearly three times the price of the Mirror. The fol lowing account of the progress of the free trade asso ciations in that country will he read with a lively in terest by all English free traders. " The French fr,,e traders have now actively and en ergetically entered into the campaign, which was opened with due solemnity in the Salle Montesquieu on the 25th of August, At this re-union, preside.' over by the Due d'Harcourt, were present Anisson, I)uperron, Horace Say, Fre.'6:ic Bastiat, Leon Faucher, Riglet, Blenqui, Michel Chevalier, and Louis Reyband, &c. The meet ing was successively addressed by the Due d'Harcourt, Leon Faucher, Riglet, and Blanqui, who exposed the mischief which was and is the result of protection. The sympathies of the audience were entirely with the speakers ' for the facts were easy of comprehension, and the truths were home truths ; and each, as dealt forth, told fearfully against monopoly, finding a ready and con firmatory response in the breasts of the auditors, who in the common occurrences of their daily life, constantly experience inconvenience and suffering from the prohi bitory tariffs of the Custom-house. The systems of agi tation proposed and adopted (as I take it) consists in es tablishing in every town of note, and of sufficient popula tion, a local league, which, while it acts under the direc tion and in unison with the central executive council, will of itself have sufficient distinctiveness to interest the inhabitants, and be able to demonstrate daily and hourly, theoretically and practically, the disadvantages 'of protection. Each league will represent as it were a different class of the community, with their different in terests and reasons of hostility to prohibition. " Thus we see three in full and active life. La Ligue Bordelaise, La Ligue Parisienne, and La Ligue Marsel laise ; the first representing the wine growers and agri cultural producers, who find the protection awarded to some of the manufacturers deprives them of a good mar ket for their wine, and forces them to use agricultural implements and machines ages behind those employed in England or in Belgium, and retards the progress and improvement dictated alike by nature and reason. The second, the manufacturers of those graceful articles, in digenous to France, and characteristic of her people, which have a European reputation, and would have commanded a European market, but for protection, which also deprives them of good and cheap machinery and tools, substituting in their stead those which are extensive and bad. The third, the shipowners, mer chants, and traders, who year by year see their trade diminish, and pass into the hands of strangers. Their ships empty, their crews idle," their ports filled with foreigners. And this the result of that protection which has not only crippled, but, in spite of the increase in wealth and population of France, has reduced her merchant navy far below what it was fifteen years back."

PORTSMOUTH, Nov. 11.—This morning at . 9 o'clock, Admiral Sir Charles Ogle, the Commander-in-Chief, struck his blue flag, and hoisted a white one at the main of the St. Vincent, which was duly saluted; all the ves sels at this port under his command thereupon changed their ensigns from blue to white. The Lieutenant-Governor of this garrison (Sir Her cules Pakenham, K.C.8.) being promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-General, makes the command of the garrison and the south-western district vacant. The Rose, 18, Commander Pelley, Which arrived last evening from the West Indian station, brought a freight on merchants' account. Lieutenant Parkhurst died on board, and was buried at sea. He was an officer of high promise, and deeply respected by all who had the plea sure of his acquaintance. The Rose has encountered very heavy gales, and just escaped the hurricane which was so disastrously felt at Havannah, and which overtook her. Mr. Grant, paymaster and purser of the Rose, ex changed with Mr. Giles of the Electra, who has conse quently come home in the Rose. First Lieutenant Dob bie is promoted to the rank of commander. The freight brought by the Rose is taken charge of by Mr. Edwin Galt, of Portsmouth, wine-merchant and freight agent, for conveyance to the Bank of England. She touched at Plymouth for supplies, and is ordered to Sheerness to be paid off. She was to have been paid off all standing and recommissioned immediately, had she been in a serviceable state, but this not being the case she will be stripped. She is bark rigged, and was built at this dockyard by the superior class of shipwrights in 1821- 385 tons. The crew of the Resistance troop-ship, Captain Patey, were paid off at the Navy Pay-office in this dockyard this morning. The Mercury tender, Second-master Scarlett com manding, sailed this afternoon with one supernumer ary (!) to Plymouth. The depots of the 91st and 20th Regiments vacated their quarters in this garrison this afternoon, and crossed over to Gosport to take up the quarters at Forton, va cated by the 2d (Queen's) who come to this garrison this evening.

In the present number we have a propos to the recent royal marriages, the genealogy of the royal house of Spain, and a short account of the Counts and Dukes of Montpensier. Under the head " A Cata logue of Noble Authors," in continuation of Walpole, we find short but well-written sketches of the lives and works of the late Lord Holland, the present Lord Strangford, the late Lord Dover, and the late Earl of Dudley. The account of the murder of Mr. Thynne, whose monument is well known to all the frequenters of Westminster Abbey, is one of the most interesting , tales of adventure we have ever read, and is an addi tional illustration of the truth of the adage, "that truth is stronger than fiction." We have besides some good papers on the fine arts, several well written notices of new books, and a variety of articles interesting to the archaeologist. OLD ENGLAND'S WORTHIES. Part X. This admirable series of engravings and biographies is as costly in its character as it is moderate in price.. Kings, philosophers, poets, statesmen, and divines are variously introduced ; and the present, among others, numbers William 111., Locke, Dryden, Lord Somers, and Ray. The fund of knowledge condensed into these pages is altogether a marvel. THE PICTORIAL GALLERY OF ARTS. Part XXII. But that some of the wood-cuts introduced in this periodical have already appeared in other publications, the richness of ilustration would be wholly incom prehensible. The treasures of antiquity, in the shape of busts, statues, bas-reliefs, medallions, fragments of architecture, groups of sculpture, &c., are here re presented in profusion. THE ALMANACK OF THE MONTH. November, foggy as it has been, is incapable of infecting Gilbert A'Beckett with congenial gloom, or of diminishing his good spirits one jot. The " Al minack for the Month" is to the full as witty and sparkling as ever. CHRISTOPHER TADPOLE. _ Part 111. The adventures of " Christopher Tadpole" are con tinned in this number with unflagging spirit. The benevolent individual into whose hands Christopher had fallen on his escape from the salt mine, turns out to be an itinerant professor of conjuring and tum bling, and Christopher is regularly received as a member of his corps, and instructed in the art and mystery of tumbling. The description of the country fair is admirable. In the meantime the adventures of the London portion of the dramatis persona are not neglected, and we have the conclusion of the party at Sir Frederick Arden's, in which Mrs. Gudge's vul garity comes out in grand style. The return home and the adventure of the ginger beer cart are capital bits of fun. All who enjoy a hearty laugh should read the history of the return of Sir Frederick Arden's guests. - - - SIMMONDS' COLONIAL. The opening article of this number on the Fish eries of New Brunswick, should be read by all our statesmen as a warning. We see in this how many of our most valuable privileges have been frittered away by the want of skill, and knowledge, And spirit: on the part of our diplomatists; how they have been bamboozled into giving to France and the United States nurseries for their navies, by per mitting them to fish on the coasts of our trans- Atlantic possessions, (we wonder they have never asked to have the privilege of digging coal in North umberland? Some of our Laissez faire statesmen, would, for the sake of preserving peace, on the entente cordiale, have suffered them to do it) ; and how they have, by gradual encroachments, turned this permission into an exclusive right, and have actually prevented British subjects from fishing on their own shores. A small squadron of gun-brigs and cutters could not be better employed than in defending our colonial fishermen against.encroachments. There are several other excellent articles in this number' of Simmonds. BANKERS' MAGAZINE. In addition to the usual professional contents of the Bankers' Magazine, we have in the present num ber a well written memoir of the life and labours of Mr. Thomas Joplin, the father of the system of Joint-stock Banking in England. To this memoir is prefixed the following Note by the Editor :-- " Mr. Thomas Joplin is no doubt well known to many of our readers as one of the early advocates and origin ators of the existing system of Joint-stock Banking in England and Ireland. We think that the following me moir of his services, which has been drawn up by a friend acquainted with the extent of his usefulness, will therefore be interesting ; and we may add, that we trust it will be of some service to Mr. Joplin himself, whose pecuniary resources have not increased in the same pro portion as those of the institutions which he assisted in establishing. " Without entering into any discussion of the claims of Mr. Joplin on the successful Joint-stock Banks, we may be allowed to express a hope that, after having ex erted himself energetically and actively in their behalf, at a time when his exertions were undoubtedly useful, he will not, now that he requires some assistance at their hands, make an appeal to their liberality in vain. We should much regret to find that such an appeal now, when he is in the decline of years , _ and a ffl icted with bad health, was listened to with apathy. We hope that the reproach which attaches itself to the leading men of the Railway Interest, for neglecting one of the earliest ad vocates of their own system, Mr. Thomas Gray, will never be applicable to the Joint-stock Banking Interest; and that Mr. Joplin will receive a satisfactory proof that it can and will repay with liberality any public ex ertions which have been made on its behalf. RAILWAY REGISTER. This number is illustrated by numerous plans and avoid Captain Powell's sections, showing sectional showin g ea t r h r e ing w e o s rk t i o n break of guage, and illustrative of Clarke and Varley's improvement in obtaining motive power. The article on the Pro cess of Investment in Railways, by the Editor, is a complete answer to the arguments of the Croakers. The Portfolio, which is now incorporated with the Register, contains a history, complete, as far as it goes, of the formation of the South-Western Rail way Company. We have, in the: present number, copies of the original prospectuses and reports, show ing the alterations that were from time to time made in the plans of the original projectors of the railway.

EXTRAORDINARY ROBBER.?'- which A arrivedmongth the passengers Nine seng Eers i lins on thenthetrain 27th alt •, ;,r1 n :Is tats young Frenchwoman, fashionably dressed, .and of gularly attractive appearance, who, on alightinp. re quested to be direct e d t o some hotel where she could reside for a few days. The attendants at the station accordingly conducted her to Mr. ;Howse's ilway Hotel, near the terminus, where she took up her abode. giving her name as Mdlle. Malvina, Florentine dc marez. Mademoiselle spoke English tolerably well, and stated that she had arrived from Jersey on her wa to Paris, but intended first to see London sights: the theatres, &c. Before long she had established Ler. elf on the most friendly footing with Mr. Howse ar c family, going out almost every evening, accompanied try one or other of its members, to some place of amuse. ment. A day or two after her arrival she consigned se heavy bag full of sovereigns to the landlord's keeping for safety ; and, in answer to his questions respecting her connexions, represented her mother as being a lady in Paris, and herself somewhat self-willed and fond of amusement. On Saturday evening last she went to Astley's Theatre, and prior to her going produced a cheque ors the Fareham bank for 99/. 135., the name of the drawer being Purkiss, which she requested Mr. Howse to get cashed. Mr. Howse said the readiest mode would be t* give it to one of the railway guards, who would present it at the bank. This proposition did not accord wiCz Mdlle. de Saumarez's views, and she replaced the cheque in her pocket, saying that a day or two hence would do. About this time it was discovered that a cash bor, containing upwards of 1501. in gold, two double sovereigns and a cheque for 991. 135., had been stolen from the house of a ship-builder living at Fareham. A reward of 201. was offered in consequence, and Mr. Gow, the super intendent of the Hants county constabulary, having ob tained a clue to the probable retreat of the depredator, proceeded to London on Monday, and accompanied by' the guard of the train that had brought Mdlle. de San marez to town, went to the hotel, and on seeing her took her into custody. The prisoner threw herself upon her. knees, and gave the following extraordinary statement:—. That a few weeks since a gentleman brought her to Eng land, and after remaining with him for a few days, left her at Gosport, where she obtained apartments at a boarding-house. The family with whom she lodged. showed her many kindnesses, and she was introduced to their cousin, who resided at Fareham. There she remained a week on a visit, and during that time saw the mother of her friend's cousin give him 50 sovereigns from a cash-box, which she afterwards deposited between. the sacking and the bed of a bedstead. She went to Southampton, where she purchased a cash-box resem bling the one she had seen, and returning with it, com plained of her head aching, and requested permission to lie down for an hour before she left for Gosport. She then went to the room where the cash-box was deposited, and substituting the empty box for the full one, slid ceeded in leaving the house without exciting any sus picion. She then went direct to the railway station, and, choosing a Carriage in which there was no other passenger, she broke open the box, and, having ab stracted the contents, threw the box out of the window. She said she had felt miserable ever since, and inclined to give herself up to justice. Upon being searched, the cheque and two double sovereigns were found upon her; and Mr. Howse, upon opening the bag, discover ed it to contain 1461. in sovereigns. The money was g iven up to the superintendent, who started with the prisoner the same night for Fareham. On Tuesday she was taken before a magistrate, and remanded for the attendance of witnesses from London. SERIOUS EMBEZ LEMEN T. MANCHESTER, WEDNESDAY.—An old man, named Sidney Wroe, whose head had grown grey in the service of his employer, was brought before the borough magis trates this morning, charged with committing a series of frauds upon that employer under the following curious and extraordinary circumstances. Mr. Beswick, chief superintendent of the detective police of the borough, said the prisoner had been for many years in the employ , of Mr. Richards, the extensive hat manufacturer, of Tib lane, Manchester, and had been always supposed to be an honest and exemplary servant till very recently,lwhen a matter, trifling in itself, led to suspicion, and an in vestigation, which discovered him to have been carrying on for years past an extensive system of fraud. The circumstances were these. The prisoner was a clerk and " putter out" of work in the employ of Mr. Richards, who employs from 150 to 200 hands, not on his premises, but residing at various distances around Manchester, in country places, where they do work for him by " the piece," and on bringing in their work at the commencement of each week, properly finished, receive payment, and another allotment of the work on hand. It had been usual for the hands to receive a bill from the prisoner on coming in with their work, certi fying the quantity done and the amount they were en titled to receive in payment. This bill or certificate they then took into the counting-house to Mr. Richards, who paid it without demur. The manner in which the prisoner had succeeded in defrauding his employer was this—be had been in the habit of putting down more work in the bills than had been done, with correspond ing increase in the money column, and then as each servant withdrew from the counting-house, he would pretend to have discovered " the error" in the interim, and obtain from him the overplus, on the supposition that he would return it to Mr. Richards. The sums thus obtained were chiefly small ones, of from one to eight or nine shillings, but extending over a long period, and practised with so many workmen as had been employed in that period, the aggregate, from the investigation which had been already made, was supposed to be an embezzlement amounting to nearly 2,0001. Mr. Beswick said he was not prepared to go into the whole of the cases which he should be able to bring forward, but he called two witnesses, whose evidence gave a tolerably correct idea of the manner in which these extraordinary frauds had been carried forward. The prisoner, who had no counsel, did not ask any questions. The Magistrates immediately ordered the prisoner to be remanded till Friday. Mr. Bcswick was understood further to state, that the prisoner was charged with having put at various times into the bats of workmen quantities of beaver used for " napping" hats, which they sold or pledged, and after wards gave him half of the amount obtained by this kind of plunder upon his employer. Loss 07 LIFE ON VIM RlVEL—Yesterday after noon, about four o'clock, a boat on the river opposite the Thames Tunnel steam-boat pier, in which were threo youths, named George Somers, William Hawkins, and Edward Brotherson, run foul of a heavily laden coal barge, and was instantly capsized. They were conse quently immersed in the water, and neither of them being able to swim, they struggled violently for a con siderable time. The watermen sucoeeded in recovering Somers and Hawkins, but their unfortunate companion, Brotherson, sunk and disappeared almost directly after the accident. _ _ ----- SHIPWRECK ON THE CO•SF OF HOLLAND.---We have already mentioned the heroic conduct of some Dutch sailors on the occasion of the shipwreck of the English ship Helen, Captain Orfair. We are now in formed, that besides the 10/. sterling granted by Lloyd's, the town of Yarmouth has sent, through the English Consul at Rotterdam, the snm of 50/. sterling, which has been distributed among the four Dutch sailors who saved the whole crew of the Helen. A MAN ON FINE IN THE STREET.—Yesterday a very singular occurrence took place in High-street, Newington, to a man named John Davis, aged thirty two years, a carpenter, residing in Francis-street, Wal worth-road. About twelve o'clock he was on the way home to his dinner, and whilst passing the Fishmongers' Almshouses, several foot passengers were suddenly alarmed at seeing smoke issuing from his left-band pocket, and before they could reach him his clothing was found to be on fire. He instantly pulled his coat off and threw it on the ground, where the flames were extinguished. The accident was caused by placing a pipe of tobacco, which he had not thoroughly extinguished, n his pocket.
