mexion with the Anti-Protestant and Anti-Establish ment policy, which they have hereto ore endeavoured to prosecute. If they be not actually out-numbered by the Conservatives, the opposition will, at least, be strong enough to convince Lord Melbourne that his heavy blow system must for the present he discontinued. - Nor have the organs of democracy and dissent hesi tated to avow their conviction, that in the present state of parties, the only possible means whereby the Whigs can expect to retain office must consist in their aban donment of all disputed questions—in their resolute defiance of Lord Althorp's puritanical disclaimers about patronage, in their bringing forward only such uselukaeasures as the Conservatives will support ; but, especially, in so abusing her Majesty's name and pre roe,ative, as, without actually sanctioning the avowals of Mr. Shed, shall irreverentle compromise the Queen's deserved popularity by involving the Crown in a Popish and R a di ca l partizanship, against which the electors of Great Britain have just recorded their solemn protest in almost every polling-book in the kingdom. But with all the shifts and expedients, by the adoption of which the Whigs will probably make a desperate effort to retain power in spite of th e con d emnatory 'voice of the British constituency, it is quite evident that the success of such a mean a n d i nso l ent attempt i s viewed with very serious misgivings even by their own jourvls. One Liberal print has actually declared its belief that a Conservative Ministry is now inevitable. Indeed, the wh o l e o f t h e revo l ut i onary press speak despondingly of their patrons and projects. Their tone and phraseology have undergone a corresponding, change. The absolute has given place to the condi tional., and dogmatism is superseded by doubt. Never theless, it were hard indeed if in the hour of adversity there were not a single point upon which they could rely for consolation or hang an illusive hope. Happily there is one such point--a point which we shall endea vour to state and examine as frankly as may he, not more from a desire to reciprocate the explanations which the Whigs have given of their plan for managing a restiff Parliament, than from our anxiety to show that we are neither blind to the possible embarrassments which may beset the Conservative cause, nor inattentive to the resources that may be looked to for their removal. The point in question is simply this :—lf the Whig Ministry shall prove unable to conduct the Go vernment by reason of possessing only a small ma jority, how can the Conservatives, who actually form a minority, expect to be more efficient than their rivals ? To the solution of this poser we shall now address our selves, and, as we desire to view our case in no over favourable aspects, we shall proceed on the assumption that Messrs. Grote, O'Connell, Hutton, Brotherton, Gibson, Lord Belfast, Vigors, and many others in si milar circumstances, will hare the luck to find Parlia mentary Committees with nerve enough to maintain them in their seats. Setting aside, therefore, every pros pect of gains derivable from petitions, we are content upon the whole to take Parliament as it stands ; and in the event of a Conservative Ministry being formed, our Opinion is, that that Parliament will be as much predis posed to give such a Ministry a " fair trial" as its prede cessor was pre-engaged to a directly opposite course. First of all, although we promise the Whigs and the duped minority of British electors who have supported them, that the shameless abuse of patronage which a venal press has recommended to a still more venal Government as the only chance of averting its downfall will be utterly repudiated by a constitutional Cabinet, there are two facts connected with the new representa tives which afford a strong presumption that a Con servative Administration will meet with their support. They are not pledged to the contrary. At no election since the passing of the Reform Bill have fewer pledges been exacted than during the contests now closed. The reason assigned for this by the Whig- Radical papers is, that no question of commanding in terest has excited the enthusiasm of the people. Be this as it. may, we are not aware that in any instance gentlemen have pledged themselves to give a factious opposition to every Ministry but a Whig one. On the contrary, they have neither been asked nor expected to do so : while, if it be true that the disuse of the pledge system is mainly attributable to the indifference of the Liberal constituency in regard to public questions, the conclusion is irresistible, that whereas a great majority of British voters have returned representatives to ex terminate Lord Melbourne's Government, the remain der have felt little concern to secure its preservation. It being thus evident that Members have generally been invested with an unfettered discretion in regard to the party who shall conduct the Government, our second observation relates to the mode in which the more reasonable among them are likely to exercise it. Their minds are comparatively free from unfounded prt7julrces. When Lord Melbourne was abruptly dismissed by his late Majesty at Brighton, a suspi cion was extensively entertained that the Court was treacherous to the cause of Reform, and that Sir Robert Peel's Ministry were to be the instruments for givin g that treachery effect. That the belief of this had a considerable influence in awakening and aggra vating the opposition which the Conservative Premier received from the last Parliament, no person can deny. But now the matter is wholly altered. The Whig gentry entertain no doubt whatever as to the sound ness of Court politics at present. Moreover, they hare no resentment to assuage, on account of party in dignities experienced at the Royal hand. There are no pretended beck-stairs intrigues, whereby many were formerly imposed on to resist a constitillional Government aileged to have been so for7ned ; and, let Sir Robert Peel be cr fled to power when he may, everybody must admit that he asks the confidence of Parliament under circumstances . of advantage to which his former position could lay no claim. Add to all this the fact, that the Conservative party having expressed their willingness to put an end to exclusive ness in the Irish corporations, and having cheerfully co-operated in redressing the matrimonial grievances of Dissenters, cannot with the slightest regard to truth be chargeable with hostility to sound practical reform. N o w, we are of opinion that many Members of the new Parliament, even though disposed generally to support a Whig Ministry, will neither be unmindful of these truths nor indifferent to their force.. Com pared with the irritation and high party feeling which existed at the assembling of the last House of Com mons, a more candid and impartial temper may be ex pected to prevail ; and, as affording another certain source of stability to a Conservative Government, we have reason to know that not a few respectable Whigs of moderate sentiments are literally longing for a legi timate opportunity to rid themselves of the O'Connell domination. Various other remarks to the same pur pose may be satisfactorily adduced, but we must defer them till another day.—Times. Parliament, as we hare before intimated, will meet for the dispatch of business in the middle of November. The interval between that and the present time will be but short. On the way, however, brief as it will he, in which the intervening space is improved by the Re formers, much of the character of the future policy of England will depend. If we, the people of these realms, are inactive, that section of the inhabitants contra-distinguished from their fellow-stlbjects by the ominou s epithet of Tories, will not be idle. Every hour of The interveni ii c* period will b e as eagerly im proved by t h em as if their i n di v id ua l lives, instead of the mere des,tinies of a party, were dependent on the amount of zeal and energy with which they prosecute their purposes of mischief. Shall the Liberals of England subject themselvestheireir to the serious • o m f o b t e e i t rig i n e less le;a e rn a e u s s t e eni ; t l l aetve in _efforts to pro tat;ol - ' wri i. Leh they have eenbarked than their oimonents are in t h e prosecution of their ' despotic machinations ? We hope better things of them. To be inactive at such a juncture would, indeed, be to incur a deep and lasting reproach. It would be to plunge themselves into the lowest depths of national degradation. And yet the voice of warn ing is often needed by the best of men ; its tendency is salutary at all times. At the present moment, when the interests at stake are of incalculable importance, and when there is a danger of the Reformers under- estimating the strength - and activity of their oppo nents—at such Er moment the voice of warning comes at a peculiarly seasonable time. We will not even indirectly do the people of England the injustice of assuming that they need to be told by us what as the duty they have to perform between the present time and the meeting of the new Parliament. That they know as well as we do. They are well aware that if the present Government, which may now be said to be so mixed up with Liberal principles, that for a time at least they mint stand or fall together—they are well aware that if this Government be not backed by a de cided and universal demonstration of support on the part of the nation, that the consequences may prove disastrous to the cause of civil b.nd religious liberty. It is not, therefore, to point out to the British em pire what is the duty of the people in reference 'to their own principles, and to that Administration, in whose legislation those principles are embodied—it is not to point out their duty to them, but to draw their attention to the fact that the present is pre-eminently a season in which the practical discharge of their duty devolves upon them, that we venture on this occasion to address a few words to them. We are sure we mistake not the character of our countrymen, when we express our firm conviction that they will lose no time in calling, public meetings, and getting up petitions in favour of those great principles with which the Mel bourne Ministry have identified themselves. Nor can we doubt, after the events of the last four weeks, that at every such meeting, and in every such petition, the protection of the vote by Ballot will be insisted on as the undoubted right of every person on whom the Reform Bill has conferred the elective franchise. Right glad are we to perceive that active exertions ere already making in Essex and other places, to get up meetings, and to procure signatures to petitions in fa vour of the Ballot. That should now be held as the great sine qua non by every Reformer. We seek no greater proof of its urgent necessity, and of the in finite advantages to the cause of Reform which would result from its adoption, than is to be found in the unmeasured horror with which the Tories regard it, and the unutterable dread with which they contem plate the probability—a probability, we beg to tell them, which will soon be converted into a certainty— of its being carried..—Morning Advertiser. The election, adverse as its general result has been to the power and stability of the Melbourne Govern ment, is a theme of exultation to the Irish supporters of the Administration. The latter do not dissemble their delight that but for them their friends at White hall would be in a minority in the House of Corn, mons. Their hearts swell, their heads reel, at the thought—the vain and foolish thought, that the elec tion has produced a position of parties in the House of Commons which will place it in their power to select the materiel of the Government, and sway the destinies of the empire. " The majority," exclaims a Dublin paper, the braggart organ at once of Dublin Castle and Derrinane Abbey " the majority is exclusively Irish." It would have been judicious to suppress or moderate this boast, but in obedience to the combined inspiration of Dublin Castle and of Derrinane, it could not be qualified, and still less could it be sup pressed. That " the majority is exclusively Irish" must resound throughout the political world. It is a truth, and therefore cannot be proclaimed too loudly. It is a truth which castigates, humbles, and enfeebles the British Administration—a second reason why it cannot be proclaimed too loudly. It is a truth which exalts and strengthens Mr. O'Connell and his servile agents at the Castle of Dublin—a third and final reason why it cannot be proclaimed too loudly. " The majority is exclusively Irish I" This, we repeat, is a boast which the organs of Dublin Castle and of Derri nane may fairly and honestly employ. If there be a majority at all, the boast may defy challenge ; for that majority, however small, has the unquestionable dis tinction, to exalt or to degrade it, of being " exclu sively Irish." We have been rebuked for suggesting that the majority in favour of Minist ers i n the House of Commons would have been a more satisfactory and creditable majority had it, however small, been com posed in part of the representatives of the British people. It was unconstitutional and unfair in us to pretend that there could he any distinction between the representatives of one part of the United Kingdom and those of another. To attempt any discrimination of this sort was to un dermine the principle of the Union, and to dissever the empire by a forcible division of its cha racter and interests into alien and discordant parts . . We have now reason to h ope t h at the reproaches which we had to undergo upon the occasion will not be repeated. This discrimination is no longer ours. The organs of Dublin Castle and of Derrinane con cur with us in making a distinction between Irish anti British Members. It is with them a matter of exul tation and triumph that the Ministerial majority in the new House of Commons is " exclusively Irish." Dublin Castle and its paramount Derrinane are in a tumult of joy in virtue of the very distinction to breathe the least hint of which was in us the deepest of political crimes. The numerical weakness of the Ministerial majority is abundantly atoned for by the exhilarating fact, that its composition is " ex clusively Irish." The English' counties have, it seems, done good service in rejecting the Ministe rial candidates with such unusual unanimity, for had they been less uniformly unpropitious the Minis terial majority would not have been so " exclusively Irish." The merit and efficacy of the Ministerial majority in the new Parliament, according to the or gans. of Lord .Mulgrave and Mr. O'Connell, are not that it is numerous, which we all know it is not, but that there is an ample compensation for the paucity of its numbers in the cheering and glorious fact " that it is exelusivel3 Irish." The majority, weak as it is in numbers, is strong, because it is " exclusively Irish ;" equivocal as it is in reputation is honourable, because " it is exclusively Irish ;" destitute as it may be of political sagacity or information is wise, because it is " exclusively Irish ;" incapable as it will probably show itself of British feelings and motives is patriotic and virtuous, because it is " exclusively Irish." No Englishman or Seotchman who is not the enemy of the Union lutist so much as glance at the idea of a distinction between the representatives of Great Britain ;And those of Ireland in respect to political weight in the Legislature or moral influence through out the empire ; but, when it suits the purposes of the Mulgrave-O'Connell faction to talk big, nothing can be more natural and patriotic on their part than to as sume that every Irish Member of their party is as good as three Members of any other description. The Mnlgrave-O'Connell faction seem to take it for a set tled thing that their fifty or sixty Irish Members are to have everything absolutely their own way. We ap prehend they are a little too confident. The British part of the House of Commons will, we imagine, rehe sitate to commit the destinies of the empire exclusively to Mr. O'Cormell's nominees. This is a degree of sub mission or subserviency for which, warm supporters of the Union as they are, they will scarcely be prepared. The Ministers may be, and we have reason enough, unhappily, to conclude that they are, indifferent ,as to the kind of influence which keeps them in power, so that they be only kept in ; but some of those Eng lish Members of the House of Commons upon whose support they most confidently reckon may still retain some vestiges of the national and manly feelings which Ministers themselves have long; dismissed. It may be flattering to Lord Mulgrave and Mr. O'Connell, it may not he disagreeable to Lord Melbourne, Lord John Russell, or Lord Morpeth, to be told that " Ireland is not only the arbiter of a Ministry, but hat in the close balance of parties which we witness, she has it in her power to turn the scale." The as sertion, so far from being; ungrateful to them, may, for anything we know, be their own, that " no Minis try can exist without the active aid of the Irish Mem bers." But these vapourings of the Mulgrave- O'Connell press of Ireland, if they are to be followed up, as there is little reason to doubt, by corre sponding arrogance on the part of the, nominees of Mr. O'Connell and the Roman Catholic Priests in the House of Commons, will speedily have the effect of converting the Ministerial majority of the House of Commons, such as it is, into a minority, and these " arbiters," these turners "of the scale," these important persons, " without whose active aid no Ministry can exist," into a knot of mere, disap pointed, ineffectual, and . factious grumblers and plotters. We can scarcely be wrong in imputing the presumptuous anticipation, that the Irish Mem bers of the Mulgrave and O'Connell school are to enjoy supreme authority in the British Govern ment and Legislature, to the Irish Administra tion ; for we find several of the persons who oc cupy its most prominent positions described in the article to which we allude in terms which we most powerfully and potently believe could never have entered into any mind or been spontaneously ex. TELE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 24, 1837 pressed by any tongue or Pen but their own. The organ of Dublin Castle and Derrinane, con fessing, as it is compelled to confess, that measures from tin Administfation supported by such a ma jority as Ministers will hare in the next Parliament arc entirely out of the question, has the modesty to say that there is in Ireland a satisfactory substitute for Parliamentary measures in the men who now al minister its affairs. In Ireland the Lord Lieutenant is a measure, Lord Morpeth is a measure, Lord Plun ket is a measure, the Attorney-Geneial is a measure, nay, even Mr. Drummond is a measure. Here is a set of measures for the satisfaction of a nation ! With these, what occasion for the turmoil of an election, or for the deliberation of Parliament ? Is a mitigation of the criminal code thought expedient—what measure can mitigate so completely as a Lord Lieutenant, who, in his progresses throughout the country, turns the key of the prison doors, and sends forth felons and murderers by wholesale, to plunder and terrify the community ? Is it desired that the right to any description of pro perty should be suspended or annulled—what measure can attain the end so certainly as a Secretary of the Government who forbids the public force to assist in the execution of the law? Is it required to stimulate the exer tions of public servants by augmenting their rewards— what measure can be so efficient as the example of a Lord Chancellor, who seizes or creates a good place for each of his spns, sons-in-law, nephews, and cousins ? It is not quite se easy to point out the particular mea sures of which the Attorney-General and Mr. Drum- mond are severally the representatives. There care be little doubt, however, that each will in due season select for himself the department of moral legislation which best suits his talents or his convenience, and, after the example of his superiors, cultivate it with proper dili gence and unfailing success. British patriots have attempted to persuade their countrymen to regard mea sures, and not men. The patriots who now compose the Government of Ireland are of a more enlightened class. They teach the doctrine, the wise and disin terested doctrine, that the people should overlook mea sures and attach themselves only to men—that is to say, to Lord Mulgrave, Lord Morpeth, Lord Plunket, the Attorney-General, and Mr. Drummond. "In Ireland these men are measures." Such is the em phatic typography of the journal which enjoys their confidence and obeys their commands.—Morning Post. If we may believe sound Whig authority, the doom of the Established Church is pronounced, its fate is fixed, time sentence of extermination has gone forth against it, its days are numbered. Its offence is great ; and we are assured that its punishment shall be commensurate with its offence, and that not a par ticle of that punishment shall be remitted. Do our readers wish to know its crime? 'We tremble as we tell it ; but it must be told. Be it then known that the Church of England has refused t• bow down to the Dalton of Popery and Whiggery united, and to wor ship the image of brass and clay which the Ministers of the Queen have set up I Therefore have Lord Melbourne, the discourager of Protestantism, and Lord John Russell, the Socinian, and Mr. Spring Rice, the anythingarian, and their colleagues—all men worthy of scats in the O'Connellised Cabinet— decreed that the Church of the reformed religion shall suffer the fate of " the virgin daughter of Zion" when she fell into the hands of the Assyrians,- that she shall 1 , be a captive and spoiled, and " shall sit in the dust, and no more be called tender and delicate." We find the solemn and terrible sentence of Whiggery against the Church of the reformed faith, which the Queen has plighted her virgin troth to maintain, as esta blished by law, recorded in a Whig journal in the following words : " It is impossible that this enlightened nation should long tolerate such an anomalous contrivance (as the Esta blished Church), and we look on the present success of the priesthood (in allusion to the recent elections), of which they and their partisans are gONt so proud, as the sure har binger of their speedy fall. Its immediate effects must be to make the whole Whig party the enemies of the ChUrch, and one trumpet blast. in Parliament from the Queen's Minis ters, echoed from town to town in England, and rover brated among the hills of Scotland and Ireland, would shake it to its foundations." THE NEW PARLIAMENT. Th.ose marked thus are New Members. ENOLAND AND WALLS. Liberal& Conservativo. This denunciation against the Church, because its priesthood refuse to sacrifice in th• high places of Popery and the groves of Baal, is grandiloquent enough, and at the same time very amusing ; but what follows is still more sublimely comical. " It," says the Treasury scribe, speaking of, the Protestant Church, from the connection with which the Queen derives her title to the Crown—" it," he observes— " Lives by the timidity or courtesy of those whom it has insulted. They yet find it convenient to profess attachment, but insult and injury must rouse within thorn all the man, and whenever they discard their hypocritical professions the days of the church are numbered." - This is not an enemy, but a friend—a most slavist instrument of the corrupt and venal Whig faction, tha describes the professions of attachment to the Church by the Whigs heretofore as hypocritical. Again, lel us hear this Government scribe— " The use which the priesthood have already made of the declaration of attachment to the Church of England, which the Queen pronounced on her accession to the Throne, ought to teach the Ministers how they implicate their mistress and themselves by their professions. The Church of England has now shown itself to be the decided enemy of the public liberties. It is leagued with public oppressors, and the Legislature will be wanting in its duty --it will be a traitor to the cause of liberty, and to the eausa of England, which is happily the cause of civilisation, and of the whole human race—s!iould it not take care be forehand and prevent the p Tests front imposin an oath on the Sovereign whenes er the coronation takes place to main• tain a paid establishment which has become injurious, alike to morality, liberty, and religion." So then the oath which binds the conscience of the Sovere'gn to maintain the Established Church as by law established, and which has hitherto been consi- tiered, at lealt ever since the expulsion of the Stuarts, as an essential part of the compact betwten the Mo narch and the British people, is to be expungtd. It we had a Popish Sovereign this need not be the case, as the Romish priesthood could give absolution for the violation of that oath, as well as for the violation of the oath respecting the Church taken by Roman- Catholic Members of. Parliament. • At All events Churchmen can no longer plead ignorance of the fact that the Church is doomed if the Whigs remain in power ! Horning Herald. There is at present in the market an immense quantity of unripe and unwholsome fruit. The late gales having shaken the trees, " the windfalls," as they are termed, have been gathered and sent to market. This is greatly to be lamented as there is so abundant a supply of ripe fruit ; indeed the quantity is so large, that it is feared much of it will be unfit for use before it can find purchasers. Apples are especially plentiful. We have heard persons who have been in the trade 20 years, remarking that they never before witnessed so large a crop. Yesterday Co vent-garden Market overflowed with them. Even in the streets, very good apples are sold at id. per dozen. SUNDERLAND, AUG. 20.—1 have just returned from w itnessing the total loss of a steam-boat, which proves to be a vessel called the Splendid, from the North, which, on passing the bar, unfortunately struck. The confusion on board was dreadful ; the majority of the passengers ap peared to be females, whose shrieks and cries brought off some boats to their assistance. It is not yet ascertained if many lives were lost, but I trust not. The boat, after being struck with a few seas, soon parted, as she appeared to be a very badly constructed. and old vessel. Some of the lower orders, immediately this occurred, gave one or two cheers, very discreditably to themselves, and the tide rapidly make in, soon strewed the coast with the timbers and other portions of the wreck of this unfortunate vessel. We have seen a letter from the western provinces on the subject of the pestilent scourge which is at present spreading iis ravages over that part of India. The disease is represented to have the same character as the plague of Egypt, and to have approached within 24 miles of Nus serabad ; and it is said that, in consequence of medical advice, Major Alves has recommended some precautionary measures. In a village 18 miles from Nusserabad, and 10 west of Bannai on the Neemuch road, 50 persons arc stated to have died of it in two days. The cold weather did no thing towards checking the disorder, but hopes are enter tained that the hot winds will have the same beneficial in fluence they are known to have in stopping the plague when it breaks out in Persia, and also in Egypt, though, we believe, there in a less degree.—Calcutta Courier.

Letters from Brunswick to the 17th inst. represent the fair to have turned out an unusually good one, beyond even the most sanguine expectations of the inhabitants. The quantity of goods was greater than for many previous years ; still all the principal magazines of cloth and lea ther had been nearly cleared out, including what had re mained over from the last fair. French, English, German, and Swiss manufactured goods went off extremely well, and even the most timid are now satisfied that the Cuetem , house union with Hanover was a judicious measure. PRINCE MA VROCORDATO.—He is a short, stout, well-built man, of very dark complexion, with black eyes, an oval face expressing great intelligence, and his hair very long, hanging upon his shoulders. He was dressed in the European style, and wore on his head a little cloth cap.,-110 also habitually' wore spectacles. His manners indicated a man perfectly accustomed to the society of persons of rank. He immediately entered into familiar conversation with Lord Cochrane, in the French language. He carried hit pipe with him, which he continually smoked, and which he is never without. — Cochrane': Wande r i ngs i n G reece . T HE SUNDAY'S DINNER IN LONDON.--Take away the Sunday's dinner from the working population, and you would take away half of the pleasure of their existence. Just as the streets are crowded with people returning from church or chapel, and the servants of the licensed victuallers sally out to supply each customer with porter, the bakers open their doors. Then issue a stream of persons, male and female, the father or the son, but more generally the mother or the daughter, bearing home the family dinner, which, for the charge of twopence, has been cooked in the baker's oven. Out of some bakers' shops there will be brought in a few minutes upwards of a hundred dinners, joints of meat or huge pies. Let a stranger walk about one o'clock on a Sunday through any part of London densely inhabited by the working classes, and his olfactory nerves will soon tes tify to him how universally enjoyed is the Sunday's dinner. We know the men of Flintshire are ashamed of Sit Stephen Glynne. They feel the degradation of being re presented by a man who treated them as cattle to be trans mitted from one hand to another, just as the state of the vote market might require it. We saw one substantial freeholder on the day of nomination, wearing Sir S. Glynne's colours, gradually single himself from the hired herd—hide the degrading badge—and whilst he hang his head so as not to be observed, he shouted " Mostyn for ever !" He was only one of many who blessed the man they were compelled to vote against, and inwardly cursed the principles of the man they voted for. We fearlessly challenge parallel cases against Mr. Mostyn. They will be like Major Williams' impeachments—weak inventions of the enemy. But the Flintshire Tories may make much of their victory. Their triumph will be short. That they know. Mr. Mostyn is but temporarily displaced. Sir S. Glynne will be cast off like a tainted utensil, and may glut over that chaplet of faded laurels, never despised except when they are polluted by encircling a head dishonoured by in. glorious victory. The Glynne destiny is indeed unenviable. Tortured with an overweening ambition, they have not patience to await the legitimate rewards of honourable dis tinction and honest exertion. It is the fate of every gene ration once in their carter to arrive at an elevation more than commensurate with their talents or station ; but it is by such sinuous paths and by such unscrupulous auxilia ries is renders them objects of contempt instead of admira tion ; they are not even envied. They may obtain the smiles of a court, but never its confidence, for monarchs seldom trust the tools they use. They may per f o rce usurp a county, but that does not constitute them its re presentative. Let Sir S. Glynn. meditate on these pie tures.—Carnarvon Herald. ORIGIN OF THE TERM MERRY ANDREW. We are indebted for the term " Merry Andrew" to a na tive of the, at present, dullest littl e c l uster o f h ouses i n England—this very identical Pevensey itself. It was that Andrew B . orde, or accordi ng , to hi s own a b sur d La tinization of his name, Andreas Perforatus, first saw the light. He was educated first at Winchester, and then at New College, where he studied physic, and travelled over almost every part of the then known world. He returned to England in 1542, took his doctor's degree and settled at his native place, whence, finding the climate remarkably healthy, and the people all exceedingly well, he proceeded to London, and became first physician to Henry VIII. He was, however, a wag, and used to visit fairs and mar kets, and to make - speeches to the people, and crack jokes„ by way of advocating the cause of medicine, and especially the use of those particular remedies, which his eloquence went most highly to eulogise :—hence his sobriquet, where ever he was known, was " Merry Andrew"—a nickname which, in the first instance, descended to his successors in practice, but who, in course of time and the progress of re finement, ostensibly separated the functions of feel a nd physician ; and while the medical part devolved upon the Doctor, the mummery was confined to the Merry An drew. Of this Borde—as I have mentioned him—l must add, that merry as he was, and autho r as h e was o f jest books, and satires, and " books of knowle = dge," his eceentrt , city took another fuze: later in life, and he practised all the austerities of the Certhusiees—a course of discipline e hick might perhaps have well prepa. - ed him to endure imprison ment in the Fleet prison, where he died in 1549. Some say be poisoned himself; and others tell us that he was not incarcerated for debt. Wood, however, calls him "a no ted poet, a witty and ingenious person, and an excellent physician."—Mr. Theodore Hook's " Jack Big." The registration for the burgh and county of Banff commenced on Monday. There were seventeen addition claims admitted for the burghs of Banff and Macduff, of which number eleven were given in by the Liberal ogen's and six by tho Tories. A good many claims were ob jected to by both parties, and a revisal of the roll took place, but none of the cases excited any particular interest. On the whole, the registration is most decidedly in favour of the Liberal interest in the burgh, and in the county we doubt not it will be equally so ; bat, as the business is not yet completed in the several districts, we cannot give a cor rect. statement of the number admitted.—Aberdeen Herald- SILVER TEA AND COFFEE SERVICES.
