WESTMINSTER ELECTION. (YESTERDAY.) hand, whoever came forward to support Mr. Leader, did so for the support of liberty and independence. The most deafen ing cheers succeeded the Hon. Member's address, which lasted a considerable time. Mr. HUME being loudly called for from all parts of the meeting, then made his appearance, and was received with loud acclamations. Some confusion having taken place on the platform, Mr. WAKLEY again came forward, and said—The other party object to Mr. Hume, because he is not an elector, but he is your County Member.—(Great cheering, and renewed calls for Mr. Hume.) They are evidently afraid of him. —( Laughter. ) Mr. HUME-If we could only get rid of the Tories here and elsewhere, we should do very well.—( Renewed laughter and cheering.) Gentlemen, I have witnessed with great satisfac tion the proceedings of this day, because it convinces me that the people now see their own interests, and are determined to have a voice of their own.—( Cheers.) The struggle now is between democracy and aristocracy, and it rests with you to say which shall succeed—(Loud and continued cheers) —whether the people are to be represented really in the House of Commons, or whether the Aristocracy, who have so long lived and plundered at your expense, shall still carry on their peculations. Gentlemen, it is impossible for me to give you any idea of the importance of the result of to-morrow's election. It is simply this—whether the cause of Reform now begun shall go on for the interests of the community at large, or whether the Tories, through the House of Lords, and the influence of the Clergy, shall stop all reform, and bring us back to the old state in which the Aristocracy have been plunderers, pensioners, and sinecurists on the public purse. Gentlemen, Sir Francis Burdett was once the man of the people, but he is now the man of the Tories. Let Sir Francis Burdett recollect the picture he once drew of the Tories, who for years made the public revenue subservient to their own interests and that of their connections and dependents —( Cheers)—making every day large additions to your public debt, and making the private advantage of the few para mount to the benefit and good of the many.—( Applause. ) The question to be decided by this election is whether you are to enjoy the fruits of your labour and capital—whether you will allow the Tories, who have taken up Sir Francis Burdett as a means of deceiving you, to become your tyrants and op pressors once more, and thus become the engines in their hands 0r rivetting the chains that have so long bound you.—( Cries of No, no !" ar.d tremendous cheering.) Gentlemen, I am one of those Radical Reformers who stood forward in support of those principles, when they were neither so gene ral nor so fashionable as at present.—( Hear, hear.) We want recruits to support and advocate the cause of the people, and for every deserter let us have two recruits. I say that Sir F. Burdett is a deserter.—( Cries of " No, no," followed by loud cheerinr , and shouts of " He is, he is.") I say that he who denies it is a fool.—( Loud cheering.) Look at his Committee— look at his placards.—( Great applause. Look at the language with which he is attempting to lull his old friends.—(Tre mendous cheerin g .) What was the language of Castlereagh ? Did he not avow his determination to fight for the King and the Constitution, and did he not exclaim we are for supportinc , the Church? Was it not against that language that Sir C. Burdett had taken his stand—was it not by that means that Mr. LEADER (in continuation from our First Edition of yes terday) said— They say lam too young. Which do you like best ? Will ,ou have a young Reformer, who is zealous in your cause? Or will you have a respectable old Gentleman, who is supported by all your opponents, the Tories ?—(No, no.) 1 confess that when I see the means that have been taken by the opposite laity in order to gain votes against me, such conduct is dis gusting. (Cheers.) How have they been canvassing ? They have been intimidating their tradesmen and work-people. They have tried to compel them to give their conscientious vote for the sake of their interest ; and then they have been aspersing my character, forsooth, and telling you I have no religion, because I wish to see the Church Establishment set in order.—(Cries of " Shame, shame.") Why, Gentlemen, I say they are the Destructives—they are the enemies to true religion.—(Cheers.) What ! will they brand the people as Destructives? Is it not for the interests of the great majority of the people that peace, order, and tranquillity should reign throughout the country ?—(Cheers.) Why then should the people be called Destructives, and why do they dare to brand me who advocate the people's cause with the names of Destructive and Atheist ?—(Great cheering.) Gentlemen, this is not a personal question ; it is not a question between me and Sir Francis Burdett—it is a great question between Reform and Toryism. The decision of the question is in your hands, and I know you will do your duty nobly, like ho nest and conscientious Englishmen.—(Loud cheers.) The eyes of every Liberal in this country and in Europe will be directed to your proceedings. Wherever the flag of freedom can be braved, there will the occurrences of this contest be looked to with intense anxiety.—(Cheers.) Wherever the people are struggling for good institutions and good Government, there will your decision be most looked to.—( Cheers.) Every one of you has within his own breast a secret but a faithful monitor, which will tell him what his duty is, and which will compel him to do that duty manfully. —( Hear, hear, hear.) I feel thoroughly convinced from what I have heard from every district, that the success of the people's cause is certain.—( Vehement cheering.) But let not any man relax in his efforts ; let every man con sider that the success of this contest depends on his in dividual exertions. Remember you have a great battle to fight—fight it well and manfully.—(Cheers.) Let every elector and non-elector remember the poll begins at eight o'clock to-morrow, and finishes at four, Let every elector come to the poll as early as possible, and then the cause of the people is sure.—(Bravo.) I have only one further observation to make. My past conduct may be a sort of example to you of what I shall do for the future ; but after the great moral lesson which has been read to your late representative this day, I say, if ever I desert your cause, treat me in the same way, as I am convinced you will treat Sir Francis Burdett to morrow. Now then, brother electors, I will detain you no longer. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for the kind, cordial, and enthusiastic manner in which you have now received me, and when on Friday I take my scat in the House of Commons—( Loud and long conti nued cheering)—when I say I take my seat there, though ou might have had an older, or a better, or an abler man, yet I think you never will have had, and you never can have, a snore honest, zealous, and devoted Representative, or a more zealous upholder of the rights of the people than I shall be.— ( Loud and vehement cheering, which lasted for some minutes. ) A show of hands was then taken for the two candidates. About a dozen hands in one packed corner were held up in fivour of Sir Francis Burdett; but on Mr. Leader's name being announced, almost every hand in the vast assemblage wa3 held up. The HIGH BAILIFF then declared it to be his humble opi nion that the show of bands was in favour of John Temple Leader, Esq. This announcement was received with loud :Ind lone continued cheering, accompanied with waving of hats en,.! handkerchiefs, and shouts of " Leader for ever !" A poll was then demanded on the part of Sir Francis Bur ;lett, which was accordingly granted, and which will commence teemorrow morning at 8 o'clock, and close at 4. Mr. LEADER then said, I thank you most sincerely for the mark of confidence which you have ust accorded to rue lam certain the result of the poll to-morroe, will shoe that the feeling exhibited here is the feeling of a vast majority of the electors of Westminster ; and I am convinced that, ou Friday, I will have to thank you as your Representative.— Loud cheering.) Mr. WAKLET, M.P., after having been loudly called for, came forward. I shall detain you for a very short time. I often met you on similar occasions, and on no one occasion did you refuse to hear an honest Radical Reformer.—( Laughter, and much cheering.) Ours is the cause of plain common sense, and no man who is not afraid of that cause will object to hear a few sentences from a Radical Reformer. I always like to see a contest carried on with perfect good humour; there is no reason why there should be strife and con fusion.—(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") Our cause is the cause of justice and nothing more—( Cheers)—but still on this occasion vve do see parties curiously amalgamated.— ( Cheers and laughter.) I have often worked hard for Sir F. Burdett on these hustings. Twenty years ago no man hi boured in his cause more than I did. I still _advocate that cause—( Loud cheers)—and will do so to the last hour of my life. Sir F. Burdett is my political father.—( Cheers and laughter.) I learnt my principles of him—l fought by his side, and it is a cause I never will desert.—( Bravo, bravo.) I love and venerate Sir F. Burdett for what he did in that cause, and I only regret that he is not now its zealous sup porter. Now, gentlemen, Sir Francis Burdett was our General at that time—( Cheers)—he fought firmly and ener getically for us ; but suppose at that period, when he had secured a bridge which led to the fortresses of the enemy, and he would at once have gained the victory—what, I ask, would your opinion have been of him, lie having secured the bridge, if he had turned round and said, " Now, you mistake your man, I am a Fi enchni an. "—( Loud cheers, and laughter.) Observe, again, Sir Francis Burdett tells you that he is wedded to the Reform Bill—that is, he will stand by it—he will stand by the Constitution. That's very pretty doctrine. We don't want any body to stand, we want them to go on.— ( Cheers.) If Sir F. Burdett is merely to take the Reform Bill, to look at it and admire it, why, his wedding with the Reform Bill will turn out a very unfruitful marriage. Suppose he had wedded a young lady in the same manner, and sup pose, that after he had admired her beautiful eyes and heavenlike-smile, they had become united, and then, when she required something more—(Roars of laughter and cheers) — he had turned away —suppose his lovely bride had said, Why, my dear Frank, what has caused this alteration ?" ( Here the Hon. Gentleman was interrupted by some one on the hustings.) The shoe pinches, gentlemen—they don't like it.—( Cry from the crowd, " you hit them too hard.") Suppose the young lady said, what means this alteration in your conduct ? why are you so cool to me now ? what have I done to offend you?—( Great laughter.) What would be his answer? This—why my love, our union was a com promise between myself and your family—they opposed our union, and we made a compromise. We are united, but I regret we must remain only united.—( Continued laughter.) I ask you, would it be endured in that case; and is it to be endured in ours ?—(Chees, and cries of " No, no.") We have the Reform Act as a means to an end. As an instrument for working out the liberties of the people—as an instrument for securing to the working man an adequate return for his toil—an instrument for securing to the whole of us our peace ful possessions —an instrument for putting the state pauper in the union workhouse.—(Loud cheers, and laughter.) If we are merely to look at the Reform Bill the whole world will laugh at us, and Sir Francis Burdett says that is what he will do.—(Mr. Wakley was here again interrupted by some of Sir F. Burdett's friends on the hustings.) Gentlemen, lam very glad they don't like it here ; I did not intend they should. —(Cheers.) If they approved of what I said, it would not be fit for you to hear.—( Cheers.) Who are the supporters of Sir Francis Burdett? Why the parties who defended the Magis trates of Manchester for murdering the people.—( Hear, hear, and cheers.) They are the implacable enemies of liberty all over the world. I regret that Sir Francis Burdett is supported by such friends ; but, they say, " Birds of a feather will flock together."—( Great laughter.) You know what the principles are which Sir Francis now advo cates by the parties who give him their support ; but, I say, they cannot, and they shall not, triumph.—( Tremendous cheering.) The electors of Westminster will not shift and change their course because another man chooses to do so. He could not forget that in 1830, at a public meeting in Lin coln's Inn-fields,she ( Mr. W. Attempted to move that a Political Union should be established, 'but it was strenuously resisted by Sir Francis Burdett. When Cobbett died what did the Honourable Baronet do ? Why he was the first to spit upon his grave.—(Groans.) Yes ; he was mean enough to send back the bonds to meet his subscription for the funeral.—(Shame, shame.) Could the electors of On Sunday, at a village within ten miles of this Westminster mention a name which could be identified with town, the connubial knot was tied between an ardent couple, in liberty ?

The Tories had mortgaged the two gold seals, another silver watch, with steel chain, two Mood and bones of the people, but a little bit of reform had silver cream jugs, and two half-sovereigns.

And now the Hon. Baronet had turned rouni upon them.—( Loud cries of " Look at his coat.") Yes ; but look also at his addresses—" I am for the Constitu tion—l am for supportinc , the ancient institutions of the country, and I mean above all to maintain the Church." I don't think there is any man among you so foolish as to give your countenance or support to any man advocating such principles. Do you want no Reform in the Church ?—( Loud cries of " Yes.") Sir F. Burdett tells you that you do not, and that he will support the Church as it now stands.— (Great laughter, and cries of " It's coming down.") Do you want no change in the House of Commons ?—( Loud cries of " Yes.") Sir F. Burdett tells ycu he wont give you any.— ( Cries of" Then he shan't sit there.") Gentlemen, I hope you will adlu re to that declaration.—( Cries of "We will.") He has told you in plain language, " I am against all Reform, and I cannot vote as you wish. I cannot support the measures proposed by his Majesty's Government ;" and recollect, Gentlemen, what those measures are—equal rights to all Dissenters—and loosing them from those bonds which have so lung enthralled them—placing them on an equality and in the ranks of other citizens, and not makh,g the honest avowal of their religious opinions a ground of punishment and degralatian. Sir F. Burdett was ag.tinst the Ministerial measure for the abolizion of Church rates. Is that your a ish ? Is there a man among you who is not anxious to sac those litigations and squabbles put an end to, and is there a man among you who does not desire that those who frequent the Church should support it.— ( Tremendous cheering.) My Honourable Friend Mr. Wek ley has stated what Sir F. Burdett's ancient opinions wei e, —he canvassed you formerly as the advocate of equal rights to all classes of Englishmen and Irishmen. He now comes before you as the representative of that party who would put a stop to all Reform—who would deny freedom and equal rights to Irishmen--and who tell you that they will stand by the Constitution and the Church. Gentlemen, I consider the cause as that, not of Mr. Leader or Sir Francis Burdett, but the cause of popular government against tyranny and misrule—whether freedom shall advance with rapid strides —whether improvements in all parts of the State shall be carried out, and whether the poor man shall have a large or small loaf. The question is whether the poor man shall pay 72 per cent. of our taxes—whether equal laws shall be distributed throughout all classes of the community—and whether the burthens of the State shall be borne by those who are best able to support them. If any man wishes to sae a reduction of taxation in-the country let them shun the Tories. I charge you not to deceive yourselves by placing your confidence in a man who is leagued with the avowed enemies of the prosperity of the country.—(Cheers.) Good God ! is not the name of Castlereagh enough to make any honest and liberal man avoid him. He would conclude by expressing his hope that the triumph of independence would be to-morrow secured by a large and overwhelming majority. The Hon. Member concluded amidst loud cheering from all parts of the Meeting. ' Mr. EWART said that it had been stated with respect to him that he was not an elector of Westminster; he asserted that he was so, and he should be early at the poll to-morrow, with all the friends that he could muster to vote for the Liberal Candidate, Mr. Leader.—( Cheers.) After hearing the state ' ments of Sir F. Burdett—( Cries of " We did not hear them,") he thought no man who was a supporter of liberal principles could support him. He felt convinced that to-morrow morning Mr. Leader would be at the head of the poll.—( Cheers.) He trusted the electors would recollect that those who voted for Mr. Leader by nine o'clock in the morning gave ten votes in the cause of freedom. Early, early, early, was the word.— (Cheers.) The decision of the electors of Westminster to morrow would not only decide the fate of that borough, but European liberty.—( Great cheering.) Colonel THOMPSON trusted that the conduct of the electors of Westminster to-morrow would long be remembered in the annals of freedom.—(Cheers.) Mr. M‘Leour said that, as a Scotch Radical, he felt bound to declare that Sir Francis Burdett was a political apostate, and it would be one of the most painful moments of his life to see such an apostate come in for Westminster.—(Cheers.) He was happy, from the disposition shewn by the present meeting, to think that his fears on that subject were ill founded ; he was satisfied that he who was called Old Glory— ( Cheers)—must go out for Westminster, in order to allow Young Glory to come in. —(Renewed cheers.) He trusted that all good Reformers would take care to be on the ground early in the morning, and that was the only means of subvert ing the intentions of their enemies.—( Cheers.) Dr. WADE said if the electors of Westminster were not totally forgetful of their own interests, they could not for a moment hesitate to vote for Mr. Leader, who was the advocate of Christianity and truth. Members of Parliament were only to be considered in the light of servants or tenants at will, and if the services of those Members had not been in accordance with their constituencies, the best way was at once to turn them oft What was Sir Francis Burdett ? Why he was a sort of Centaur, between flesh and fish ; he was a mer maid in the cause of Reform—( Cheers)—and being such he trusted the electors of Westminster would not so far forget their duty as to advocate their cause.—(Hear, and cheers.) He felt no doubt that to-morrow would place Mr. Leader at the head of the poll, and that the electors of Westminster would redeem the character they had hitherto held of the advocates of Reform.—( Cheers.) After nine cheers had been given for Mr. Leader, and as many groans for Sir Francis Burdett, the immense assembly , separated in the greatest order—those who were electors de claring their determination to be up and doing at an early hour in the morning.

Fox A one-horse carriage, belonging to the Rev. Mr. Otter, was driven by a servant over the English Bridge in this town on Monday. On its descent from the centre of the bridge the foot-board of the driver pushed against the horse, and the animal instantly sprung upon the footway, and, with the shaft of the carriage, forced the coping-stones and ballus ters of the bridge into the river, and then hung in the harness twenty feet over the water until the shafts and harness broke and the animal was plunged into the Severn ; the depth of the water was enough to break the concussion of his fall, and he walked out uninjured. The carriage, with two servants upon it, stood upon the very verge of the broken bridge. About twelve feet of the coping and balustrade of the bridge was thrown into the river. —Shrewsbury Chronicle. YARMOUTH, MAY 2.—On Thursday evening, a public meeting of the inhabitants of this borough was held at the New Hall, for the purpose of considering: the propriety of petitioning Parliament to pass the Ministerial measure for the abolition of Church -rates. At the commencement of the pro ceedings, but few persons were present, but as the business of the evening advanced, the room became well filled. The Mayor was unanimously called to the chair, and resolutions and a petition were agreed to without a dissentient voice, praying the House of Commons to support the pending mea sure, for the total abolition of Church-rates ; and thanks having been voted to the Chairman, the meeting separated. On Thursday night some of the parties who ho noured the neighbourhood of Eton with their presence for the purpose of witnessing the rowing match, broke into the Col lege school-room and stole Dr. Hawtrey's rods and his flogging-block.

LEEDS. —The woollen business seems to go on in the same languid manner as it has done for some time past, the sales both of balk and finished goods being very limited for the sea. son. There has been a very great number of London buyers in the town during the whole of the week, but, from all we can learn, their purchases have been small. Their intention seems evidently to be that of getting cloths at a great sacrifice, but it is our opinion that most of them will have to return without effecting their object : _ _ HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, MAT 2.—We cannot perceive any alteration in the state of our market this week, compared with the last two or three. WAKEAIELD WOOL MARKET, MAY .s.—We cannot report any relief to the pressure on the trade noted last week—the announcement of one or two failures has rather increased it than otherwise. There is very little business doing, and prices for all qualities continue to decline. BRADFORD MARKET, MAY 4. —We cannot report any im provement in the piece market to-day. The general opinion is, that it has been flatter than last week. In the yarn mar ket there has been no material alteration since our last re port—but few goods have changed hands, and, where sales live been effected, a decline of price has been submitted to. Wools generally bearing an almost nominal quotation, the business done during the past week having been to a very small extent ; but hopes are entertained that this will be temporary, and that the worst is over. Fine and super hogs and fine matchings are still in request, but these also are nearly at a corresponding reduction with other wools. Mr. Lockhart, in his Life of Sir Walter Scott, re lates that Miss Seward had sent Scott some obscure magazine criticism on his " Minstrelsy," in which the censor had con demned some phrase as naturally suggesting a:low idea. Scott wrote, in reply—" I am infinitely amused with your sagacioos critic. God wot I have often admired the vulgar subtlety of such minds as can with a depraved ingenuity attach a mean or disgusting sense to an epithet capable of being otherwise un derstood, and more frequently, perhaps, used to express an elevated idea. In many parts of Scotland the word virtue is limited entirely to industry ; and a young divine who preached upon the moral beauties of virtue, was considerably surprised, at learning that the whole discourse was supposed to be a pa negyric upon a particular damsel, who could spin fourteen spindles of yarn in the course of a week. This was natural ; but your literary critic has the merit of going very far a-field to fetch home his degrading association." Happiness is a refined sensation, permanently agree able from causes in which the mind is peculiarly interested, and of which it uniformly approves. According to Spuraheim " the exercise of our active faculties." A fugitive chimerical being, whom every body runs after, and nobody catches. ST. PETERSBURHGIT, APRIL 26.—The Gazette of the Senate has the following article :—" His Majesty the Emperor, in addition to what has come to his knowledge from different quarters, has been pleased himself to remark, that many civil officers, especially out of the capital, take the li berty of wearing mustachios, and, after the manner of the Turks, or aping French fashions, do not shave their beards. His Majesty finds this unbecoming, and accordingly all the superiors of civil departments are enjoined to be very strict not to allow those under them to wear such beards or mustachios, for the latter belong exclusively to the military uniform." About ten o'clock on Sunday night, ,a . s,:Sergeant Prendeville, of the G division, No. 20, was on duty in Golden: lane, he observed a female, decently attired, sitting on the step of a door. As she appeared extremely ill, he got another con stable to assist him, when they took her to the station-house in Featherstone-street. Inspector M'Craw, finding her to be in some danger, had her removed to St. Luke's workhouse, where she received immediate attention from Mr. Raner, the parish surgeon, but in a short time all human aid was of no mail, as life became extinct. ORTHOGRAPHY.—At a shop window in Eagle street, Red Lion-square, a paper is to be seen, on which is written—" To romes on the 2rnd /lore to be lctt, pul the midle belle." A few doors from the place above referred to, we find that " Goodes are removde by hors and Wan, terms verey moderat." Our townsmen are exerting themselves to promote a subscription for the relief of the distressed dist, sets in the High lands and Islands of Scotland. Lists are laid at the different banks and other public places in the town. —Hull Observer. Mr. H. Tufnell, who was a candidate at the last Parliamentary election, and who it was understood would offer himself again at the first vacancy, has in the course of the present week addressed a letter to his friends in Colchester, stating he has declined coming forward again to contest the representation. The Liberal electors express much regret at the circumstance, as we believe the Hon. Gentleman was held in high respect by them. —Suffelh Chroniele. WAR.—Nothing can be worse than the general feeling on the subject of war. The church, the state, the ruling few, the subject many, all seem to have combined, in order to patronise rice and crime in their very widest sphere of evil. Dress a man in particular garments, call him by a particular name, and he shall have authority on divers occa sions to commit every species of offence, to pillage, to murder, to destroy human felicity, and, for so doing, he shall be re warded. Of all that is pernicious in admiration, the admira tion of heroes is the most pernicious ; and how delusion should have made us admire what virtue should teach us to hate and loathe, is among the saddest evidences of human weakness and folly. —Bentham. In no country are religious creeds tolerated more tho roughly than in the United States. Take for example the following curious list of particulars : Names. Office. Creed. Andrew Jackson, President U. S., Presbyterian. Martin Van Buren, President elect, Baptist. Roger B. Taney, Chief Justice, Roman Catholic. Joseph Story, Associate Justice, Unitarian. John M'Lean do. do. Methodist. Wm. L. Marcy, Governor of N. Y., Baptist. John C. Calhoun, W. S. Senator, Episcopalian. Daniel Webster, Ditto, Unitarian. Henry Clay, Ditto, Baptist. —Religion in the United States. While Mr. Maclean, on Tuesday night, in the House of Commons, was calling public attention to the fact of the Baron de Haber having saved the lives of six English.. men who had been taken prisoners by the Carlists,—Madame Albertazzi, whose father and two brothers were three of those six prisoners, was, within a few hundred yards of the same spot, on the boards of the King's Theatre. Madame Alber tazzi, is an English woman by birth. There are in Sanquhar about 100 weavers who de pend upon Glasgow for work, and who were in a state of complete destitution from want of employment. These poor fellows called on Major Crichton to ask the Duke of Buc cleuch to employ them as day-labourers on his estate, to savo their families from starvation. The Major saw his Grace, who immediately put into his hands a sum of money sufficient to buy yarn to set them all to work, at the same time desiring full wages to be given to them, the Duke undertaking to buy the cloth woven, and keep it by him until there should be a market for it. The surprise and joy of the weavers at this benevolent action of the truly patriotic nobleman drew tears of gratitude even from the sternest of them.—DumfriesHeraltl. The Duchess de Cannizzaro gave a musical soirlt. on Sunday evening, in Hanover-square. The court-martial which was held on the sth ult., on board the Hastings, at Lisbon, to try Lieutenant John Col pop Ommanney, of the Minden, for charges preferred against him by Captain A. R. Sharpe, C. 8., was composed of the following members :—Vice- Admiral Sir William Gage, G. C. H., President; Captains Sir William Montagu, Hon. J. Rous, G. B. Mends, Daniel Pring, and A. Shiffner. The charges were as follows :--lst, " For disobedience of orders-- 2d. For insolence and altering the log-3d, For writing inso lent notes and letters to Captain Sharpe-4th, For writing similar notes to Commander Knox--and sth, For contemp tuous conduct towards the said Captain Sharpe and Comman der Knox." The Court decided that the first and second charges were not proved, and that the third, fourth, and fifth were fully proved ; but in consequence of the length of time the said Lieutenant Ommaney had been under confinement, the court adjudged him to be placed at the bottom of the list, and there to remain. The ships in the Tagus, when the Camden left, were the Hastings, Minden, Malabar, Trinculo, Came lion, Partridge, and Nightingale. The Partridge was to bring the next news to England.—Hampshire Telegraph. On Thursday morning a fatal accident occurred at Darlaston. Two men, named Teese and Wilkinson, were employed in blowing up rock-stone with gunpowder, when Tease, having prepared the hole and put the gunpowder in, took the touchpaper ready lighted, and before leaving the usual train, stood with it over the hole. Whether he applied the lighted paper to the gunpowder, or whether a spark fell upon it, cannot be ascertained, but an explosion immediately followed, and blew Teese, and a large quantity of rock-stone, into the air. Teese was killed instantly, his head being split into two parts, and a portion of his brains blown out. The workmen near escaped uninjured.-- Wolverhampton Chronicle. On a man named Talbot being committed by the Leamington magistrates for a misdemeanour, he returned to the dock, after turning to go out with the officer, and seriously demanded of the magistrate, " who was to pay him for his loss of time while in gaol ?" He seemed quite annoyed at 1 being laughed at.—Leamington Chronicle. Three caricatures relative to the Westminster elec tion have just been published. They are all good ; that en titled " Jump Jim Crow I" is a decided hit. Sir Francis Burdett appears as " Jim Crow," and appears to be wheeling about in excellent style.

THU RUNAWAY CONVICTS AT WOOLWICH.— On Monday morning, Thos. Bowen, John Wallace, Thos. Dalton alias Dutton, and John Bannon, the four convicts who made a desperate attempt on Saturday last to effect an escape from the dock-yard or Woolwich, were severely flogged on board the bulk lying off the arsenal, in the presence of the whole of the male convicts who are confined at that outport. It is said that one of the men in particular is suffering very severely from the punishment inflicted, which was of no ordi nary description. BIRTHS.

THE PHILOSOPHY OP DREAMS.--" The philo sophy of dreams," observed Mr. St. Lawrence, " is one of the most puzzling in natural or ethical philosophy, and was one of the desiderata which Lord Bacon left as a legacy for posterity to unravel. For the most part, they are what you have called them, • airy nothings.' The reason is, that for one instance of coincidence of events with a dream, there are millions of fancies which cannot even be recollected. A subject too which the dreamer has brooded over all day, may be, and frequently is, pursued even in sleep. Favourite sounds are repeated; favourite passages in authors; and even difficulties in compo sition, which have baffled waking endeavours, as I have heard scholars say, have been suddenly set right in a dream. Of course a particular conduct, long revolved when awake, maY also seem to be recommended in sleep, and the event too may sometimes coincide with the fancy, so that the dream may ap• pear prophetic."—lllustrations of Human Life. The Somerset County Gazette continues to call for a coalition Ministry, insisting that the true interests of the country can be promoted alone by the political junction of the Whigs and Conservatives. The people, we apprehend, do not greatly desire any such heterogeneous connexion. AT T. COX SAVORY'S, 47, Cornhill, London. GOLD AND SILVER WATCHES.
