T hus, reader, in the autumn do we find A lesson suitable for all mankind. Like to the moulting birds do we require A seasonable change of our attire. And 'Messrs. MOSES, for this very reason, Have made their preparations for the season. • Their autumn overcoats are really such As every gentleman will value much. An admirable fashion they display— A fashion that is sure to bear the sway.

THE UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER. 30 to 50 per Ccnt. Saved! The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts, fhe advantages resulting from the invention are various and striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 50 per cent„ the com bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor snmke, and burns steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have made to the introduction of gas in dwelling-houses, to the expense of fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, &c. ; these are entirely obviated by the "PATENT UNIVERSAL Gas BURNER." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for club -houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of waste or trouble. The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing every other known light, are shown by the annexed authentic opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER. Extract from the Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers, Tuesday, 26th May, 1846, Sir Joint RENNIE, President, in the Chair. " A gas burner of a novel and ingenious construction was exhibited. The principal novelty was the introduction of a stream of air to the centre of the flame by a hollow button in the middle of the burner. The air passing up through the hollow stem of the button, was heat ed, and passed out by two series of fire-holes around the periphery, and I:npinging with force on the flame of the gas curved it outwards in the shape of a tulip, while the oxygen of the air, mingling with the carburetted hydrogen gas, produced a vert perfect combustion, The flame was quite white down the top of the burner, w as very steady, as was amply demonstrated by the excellent light of the Institution, where these burners have been used. In comparing the consumption of these burners with that of the concentric ring burners, and trying the power of the two lights by the photometer, the new burner gave a better light, with a saving of rather more than one-third." JITVENILE PLEASURE. ti Amidst the bright scene we delightfully treasure, We witness with ocstacy juvenile pleasure I Their light-hearted revels we cherish with joy, Whilst the face is illumin'd of each beautiful boy! • Oh ! there is not a youth, we may venture to say, But enraptured looks forth to the bright holiday ; And amongst all the transports, and many are these, There is nothing that pleases so much as New Clothes I Now lIYAM, we freely acknowledge with truth, The very best Clothing provides for each youth, Transcendently high his great name now it shines, For Hussar Suits and Tunics of novel designs ! At incredulous prices he now will dispose Of his splendid assortment of Juvenile Clothes ! Parents and Guardians are respectfully invited to inspect the im mense vsrlety of Boys and Youths' Clothing always kept .n hand at this Establishment. An immense saving in price is effected, and very garment warranted as to durability, quality, and fashion.

B RITISH COLLEGE OF HEALTH, NEW-ROAD, LONDON. THE HYGEIAN, OR MORISONIAN SYSTEM OF MEDICINE. I. All animal bodies consist of fluids and solids. 2. While in a state of embryo all animals consist entirely of fluids. 3. It is from and by the fluids that the solids are formed. 4. The fluids contained in the human body are four times the weight of the solids. 5. The chief of the fluids Is the blood, from which all the others are derived. G. The blood not only repairs every part of the human machine, but also carries with it all the rubbish, or decayed parts, to be depo sited in the intestines, previous to being expelled along with the excrement. 7. The blood is the life—the primum mobile--the first agent— from which all others derive their origin. 8. Health depends upon the purity of the blood. 9. The purity of the blood depends upon its having free outlets for its decayed particles. 10. Disease is induced by the choking up of these outlets in the bowel , „ by reason of an accumulation of glary mucous on the inner surface of the intestines, &c. 11. This accumulation is occasioned by anything that weakens the circulation or hurts digestion, but chiefly by the poisonous drugs and bad treatment of the faculty. -- 112. The impurities thus detained in the blood occasion every spe cies of disease, according to the quality of the humour, or the parti miler locality in which it is lodged. 13. All diseases proceed from one source, therefore they must all be eared by one medicine. I. This medicine must be a vegetable purgative, innoxious in it- Eel; yet sufficiently pomerful to pervade the whole system, clear away the above-mentioned mucous, and purifyt he blood. 15. The discovery of a vegetable compound, capable of being di gested, and mixing with the blood, so as to impart to it that energy requisite for ridding t.e body of all superfluous humours was a desideratum.

DURHAM, WEDNESDAY MORNING.—On Tuesday evening a public dinner was given to John Bright, Esq., M.P., by his constituents, the electors of this city. The dinner originated with the mayor and corporation, and was intended as a mark of respect to the Hon. Gentleman, and also to evince their sense of his services in the cause of free trade. It took place in the Sale and Exhibition Rooms (the largest room for the purpose in the city) which was well filled. Mr. Bright arrived punctually at. five o'clock, the time appointed, and was received with enthusiastic applause. The mayor (J. Bramwell, Esq.) presided, and Alderman Hoggey, ex mayor, filled the vice-chair. On the right of the chair were the honoured guest, Captain Wetherby,. George Crawshay, Eq., of the firm of Hawks and Co., of Gateshead ; John Crawford, Esq., W. Shields, Esq., &e: On - the left W. Brockett, Esq., J.P.; Alderman Moore, Thomas Kell, Esq. In the room were several influential gentlemen from the neighbouring towns. The room 'was decorated with ever greeni .and flowers; and the device of a crown, with the motto " Free Trade," were formed in dahlias above the prin • cipal table. . _ After dinner, the CHAIRMAN read a letter from Henry Morton, Esq., principal agent to the execu t ors o f t h e Coun tess of Durham, expressing regret that a previous engage ment, which he could not postpone, precluded his attending. He considered the entertainment a very proper acknowledg ment to Mr. Bright fur his able and indefatigable exertions in the cause of free trade, and it was must assuredly owing to the unparalleled efforts of Mr. Cobden and Mr. Bright that the struggle was brought to a triumphant issue. The MAron then proposed '° The Queen," observing that to her Majesty they may have been indebted for smoothing the prejudices, overcoming the objections, and bringing into order the highest branch of the Legislature on the question of free trade.—(Drank with cheers.) Other loyal toasts having been drank, The MAYOR again rose, and in flattering terms proposed the health of Mr. Bright, which was very rapturously cheered. Mr. BRIGHT immediately rose, and after the cheering on his rising had subsided, addressed the company in a speech which occupied an hour and a quarter itt its deli very. He expressed his obligations to the Mayor and Cor poration for having invited him to that entertainment. He took it as some proof that the inhabitants of Durham were willing to give their sanction to those great measures which have passed the Legislature during the present session. It was an accident which brought Lim to the city, and although the schism which had taken place in the ranks of their opponents had weakened them and strengthened the free traders, yet it must be admitted there was something in the principle which was held out to the electors which roused them to virtuous action, and tended to b r i ng a b out the sue • cess of that great and memorable struggle.—(Applause.) That principle was one which at that time was not univer sally recognised; and yet he believed tke more they exa mined it, and the longer they lived, the more they would be compelled to acknowledge that no principle could be more beautiful and true, none fliers natural, just, and simple. It was opposed by an organisation of almost every other party —by those who were interested in the accumulation of rent, by those who sought to maintain the supremacy of party, and also by a large class of persons Who suffered neither pecuniary or political considerations to weigh with them, but who were deeply prejudiced and ignorant, who had not intelligence to examine the question, or public spirit to ar range themselves with the popular party, for the pur pose of overturning the great national evil of the corn-laws. They were also opposed by men who say they have much more religion than others, because they profesa a deeper attachment to the church, and who are generally not willing to admit that those who would move in any political question are even tit to live in a country which they have governed, and which they would fain govern for ever. The Whig party, too, were long before they adopted those principles ; many adopted them at last with the greatest possible reluctance, and many, he feared, are not altogether pleased that a great political ne cessity has made those principles triumphant. Up to a very recent period there were not in the House of Commons more than 100 who voted for the total repeal of the corn laws, and in the House of Lords, according to their own confession, not more than six, and yet that measure had ' been successful. The three estates of the realm have ac knowledged that the corn-laws were a great evil ; two prime ministers have declared them a grievous and intoler able injustice; two cabinets have decided against them; and throughout the kingdom there is all but an universal admission that these laws were an error from the beginning, and have been marked by nothing but mischief to the people, to whom they promised to be unmixed good.—(Applause.) Ile reminded them, hoWever, that this had been done not by the Crown, nor Ministers, nor Parliament, but by the middle and industrious classes of the country.. The remembrance of this would show them hereafter how they might be success ful in any just struggle in which they may be engaged, for there are struggles a-head from which the people cannot escape, and in which they must be either borne down by the conflict, or by united and energetic efibrt again succeed. —(Applause.) He then alluded to the pacific policy which had characterised the Anti Corn-law League, And said that in this country and in this age no beneficial reform can ever be efiected by force; and further, the employment of forCe would bring with it greater maladies-than those which it healed. Ile next adverted to the important influence which his election for Durham, followed as it was by the return of Mr. Mattison for London, had on the Anti Corn law movement. Since then blow had succeeded blow until at length the rock which seemed to be immovable had given way, and industry set free.—(Cheers.) Some thought the sugar monopoly would require another association to de stroy it; but no sooner were the corn-laws destroyed, than it was found that the sugar monopolists' brazen image had feet of clay, and even now, without a shot being fired at it, the sugar monopoly had been virtually abolished.—(Loud cheers.) But they had not only to congratulate each other on the passing of free-trade measures, but on some of their effects. Only a few months agn they loohod to America with apprehension and dread, but no sooner did Sir Robert Peel's free-trade speech reach that country, than the men who were for all Oregon or none, and •for fighting their father-land, felt that they were stricken, and could no longer make head against those great interests which knew that it was - a thousand times better to trade with Englishmen than to fight with and destroy them.— (Applause.) It was not free trade that did this, it was the shadow of it only. He stated at the last election that the protective system in England was the cause of the protective system abroad, and that any relaxation of it here, would be followed by similar steps on the part of other countries. Already our example is being imitated. There was the tariff which had been introduced into, and which had recently passed, the legislature of America. Mr. Polk had been returned at the last presidential electionin consequence of his adherence to the principle of that plea sure, which had passed the Senate by a majority of one, that one being the vote of the President himself. It was the opinion of the leading merchants of Liverpool and Man chester, that that tariff would be highly beneficial to the trade of the two countries. With the duties reduced, in many cases one-half, in some cases two-thirds, there could be no doubt by the time the measure came into operation, they would find a great impetus given to the trade of that country, as well as to that of this. But there was nothing that was more consolatory to his mind, when . he looked back upon his labours in the recent struggle for commercial freedom, than the fact, that whenever the principles of free trade became universal, they should have nations not separate and distinct as they were now—one man saying he was born an Englishman, and therefore could have no so sym pathy with the Frenchman; and When all nations would feel as one people over the earth, separated perhaps by mountains—not separated but united by seas—when they should all consider themselves as branches of the same uni versal family, governed, indeed, by separate Governments, but not characterised by a warlike disposition, rather 'as suming the character of municipal institutions. The pro gress of free trade extended the intercourse of nations, and was the best security for peace. Then, "Our's the triumph be Round social earth to circle fair exchange, And bind the nations in a golden chain." But the prospect was not more delightful at home, and in a domestic view. He bad come down from London yesterday, and he had observed, what was the case everywhere, that the country through which the railway passed was only half cultivated. lie might safely assert that when these railways were formed, the parties found the_ land in much the same state as it was in two or three hundred years ago. The operation of free trade would give an impetus to agri culture which would soon be conspicuous in the cultivation of the land. The Honourable Gentleman then referred to the alleged burdens on land, and showed by facts and argu ments that the single burden arising from the preserva tion of game was greater than all the other burdens on land— including all the local and general taxes put together. He instanced the case of the Duke of Rutland, who in one year had paid his tenants 9161. for damage done by game over 398 acres of his land. And yet the Marquis of Granby, at a recent meeting of the protectionists, complained that it was • impossible for agriculturists of this country to compete with the foreigner owing to the peculiar burdens on land, while the burden arising from the preserva tion of game was greater than all the others put together. The Honourable Geutleman then ad verted to the recent changes in public opinion, and con gratulated the meeting on the progress which the free trade principles had already made. The present Go vernment, on coming into office, showed itself anxious to obtain the sanction and approbation of that portion of the public who had been acted upon by the Anti-Corn-law League. They offered offices to two mem bers of the League who were then in Parliament ; and one of them accepted office. He was willing in part to take that as a pledge of what would be the career of the new Go vernment.—(Cheers.) The Government might not be able to carry out their intentions to the full effect, which the members of the League wished; still lie was inclined to be lieve that the great principle that Government was meant for the people, and not for' classes, must be followed out. The public was becoming . more enlightened; and with the pro gress of enlightenment the Government of the country must always keep pace.—(Cheers,) He came now to speak of himself in connexion with their city. He came here openly as the advocate of seine opinions which he knew were not in consonnance with those of some among them, who had given him their disinterested support. But his pledges to them had simply had relation to the question of free trade; and those pledges he trusted he hail amply redeemed.— ( Loud and repeated cheers.) Ho had never in Parliament missed one single opportunity of recording his sentiments in favour of free trade since they hadsent him to Parliament; and now he was delighted beyond measure that his meeting with them was to celebrate the fulfilment of their joint wishes. For himself he could only say, that he had not ne glected one important thing which had devolved upon him in the representation of this city.—(Cheers.) One great source of satisfaction to him in the prosecution of the last election it which he had been engaged in this city, WaS. that neither he, nor any of his friends, were connected with any act of which they could be accused as unworthy of their cause.— (Cheers.) An attempt had been made to get up a charge of bribery; but after raking up all the sinks and sewers of the town, with an assiduity which would have been com mendable in a better cause, the charge was abandoned. Their own cause was pure; but a cause which was in itself good would never be stained by improper means.—( Loud , cheers.) lle would expect them, then, never to stain that character for purity which they had gained or. that occa sion—not to again submit to that stain which was affixed to so many boroughs throughout the kingdom.—(Hear.) Here argument was the only weapon used by the League, and it had been triumphant, for it not only obtained a vic tory here, but was soon afterwards productive of another iu I.9udou,—(Chem) The pfd 16tejai of _clactik4 ' was productive of sad remembrances, both to the corrupter and the corrupted, and he hoped that they would never see its re-establishment in this city. The Hon. Gentleman saw through the various influ ences he had to encounter before he was successful at the last election, and alluded to the disgraceful conduct of the elec tors of Sunderland at the last election there, which he placed in strong contract to that of the electors of Durham, where no pledge had been forfeited. But he had been assured that the electors of Sunderland were prepared to redeem their character. He now came to the most painful part of his duty --to tell them that he could take no future part in the elec tion for this city. From causes which he need not go into now—some of which were personal to himself, and some of which had reference to parties individuals and opinions which prevailed in Durham. He believed it was perfectly understood that he should not again present himself before them as a candidate when the next general election should arrive. He could not be a'party to either the further corrup tion or the further purity of election in Durham ; but he entertained a firm conviction, after what be had witnessed from his connexion with this city, that they would persevere in eschewing the one and maintaining the other. He had no doubt but they would purely, honestly, manfully, and determinedly perform their duty; and he had no doubt that whoever might be his successor, the espousal of principles which had taken place between himself and them, would not be broken. The Hon. Member resumed his seat amidst loud cheers. Mr. SHIELDS proposed the health of the Hon. C. P. Vil liers, Mr. Cobden, Mr. Wilson, and their fellow-labourers in the sacred cause of the corn-law repeal.—(Applause.) Mr. CRAWSHAY gave " The Constituency of the city of Durham, and may it preserve its independence." Mr. BuocKETT, in proposing the health of "Her Majesty's Ministers," expressed a hope that they would practice in office what they had preached whilst in opposition.—(Ap plause.) Sir li. Peel had no doubt done much good, and he for one was grateful to him for it ; but it was pitiable to find that his opponents could charge him with having vio lated his pledges. Tie trusted no supporter of the present Mi nistry would ever be able to charge them with doing so. Mr. KELL, the town-clerk of Gateshead, gave the health of " The Liberal Constituencies of the county of Durham." The county, he said, is represented by ten Members, eight of whom are Liberals, and it behoved them to attend to the re gistration, and consider whether those who returned so large a proportion could not return the whole.—(Cheers.) "The Bishop of Durham" and other toasts were then drunk, and the company separated shortly before nine o'clock. [The Hon. Member was expected to address the inhabit ants in the market-place yesterday evening.] THE SEASON AND THE CROPS. FAILURE OF THE POTATO CROP. The present week has opened well for the securing of the corn crops, Sunday having been a fine drying day, with bright sun and a gentle breeze, and yes terday fair, though scarcely fine. The wheat and oats were still in the fields yesterday morning, in this part of the country, owing to the wea ther having been too much broken during the last week for using ',them, although they were nearly dry more than once. The grain is, in general, in good con dition, and very little sprouted, except under the trees and hedges. Should we now have a fine week, many thousand acres of grain will be secured in good condi tion before Saturday night, in Lancashire and Cheshire. In consequence of the alarming reports of the existence of disease in the potato crops, we took the opportunity at the end of last week of examining that, and at the same time all the other crops very carefully, in a range of country extending about fifty miles in length along the valleys of the Mersey and the Irwell, as well as several miles on both sides of these rivers. This includes some of the districts in Lancashire and Cheshire, and we regret to be compelled to say that the result of that examination is a conviction that the potato crop is everywhere extensively diseased, and in many places it is threatened with total destruction. The corn crops and all green crops, except potatoes, are lookinc , well. _ _ _ Staiiing from Liverpool by the line of the railway, we find that about Broad green and Huy ton the wheat crops are all cut, and that the number and size of the sheaves give promise of a large produce. The second crops of clover are in flower, grass is abundant, and turnips promise well. In the midst of this general luxuriance, the potato crops are all more or less diseased. In some fields the tops are en tirely withered, as after severe frost, and every where they are blackened. The smell of decaying vegetable matter may be perceived in passing every field. It is certain that the disease must proceed in this neighbourhood from general causes, and not from any defect in the soil, or in the cultivation of it, for the soil is perfectly open and dry, and the cultivation as good as that of any part or England. On the stiff soils xtending from Rainhill to the west side of the Sankey Valley, the signs of disease are also . everywhere perceptible in the potato crops, but the decay is not yet so much advanced as in the earlier and dryer soils. As this land is so stiff and undrained, and therefore unfit for the growth of roots, we should have thought little of the existence of the disease if it had been confined to this neighbourhood. The small quantity of wheat grown on these cold soils is unripe, and still uncut. About Newton the soil again becomes dry and open. Here all the grain is cut, and will be housed before the end of the week. Every crop looks well except the potatoes, which are giving way in almost every field, and becoming black and offensive to the smell. About Warrington the soil is remarkably open and rich, and here the farmers understand the cultivation of all kinds of potatoes as well as in any part of Eng land, if not better, yet here the disease is nearly universal, and the loss must be ruinous. The early crops have yielded very badly, and the late ones seem likely to yield still worse. In this neighbour hood yellow turnips are always grown after early potatoes, and the young plants are already looking re markably well. The potatoes have taken little nourish ment out of the ground any where, arid wherever the tops are quite decayed, it would be good policy to take them up, and to sow yellow turnip seed, broadcast, on the same ground. Before Christmas the bulbs would be very large. In Kenyon, Culcheth, and Leigh, the soil is in general stiff, though there are some patches of good open dry land. Here the potatoes are decaying on the good soils as well as on the bad. We know this to be the case in one instance, in which the land has been dug two grafts deep, to insure perfect dryness and openness in the soil. On the peat moss farms in Barton township the disease has hitherto only shown itself in the gardens, and as potatoes crown on peat lands last year escaped both in England and Ireland, the moss farmers have some hopes of being equally fortunate this year.. We fear, however, that they will be disappointed, for the disease is much more violent and general this year than it was last, and - the peat soils are already affected in Ireland. , Following the brie of the old road froni Manchester to Liverpool, through the villages of Irlam and Cadishead to Hollin's Ferry, the .potato crops, in the open fields, are less affected than in most parts of the county, though they are far from being free from the disease - . The soil in the whole of this district is open and peaty. After crossing the river Mersey, at Hollin's Ferry, into the township of Warburton, in Cheshire, the ap pearance of the corn, grass, and turnip crops is very fine, but the potatoes are much worse than. in Lancashire. We only saw one small field in this township in which the disease did not exist; and in many there was not a single green leaf on the tops in a whole field. The farm and garden cultivation in this district is excellent, and the soil open, friable, and rich, so that there is no pre tence for charging the evil on local causes. After passing through Dunham Massey Park we come to the neighbourhood of Bowden and Altringham, where the land is the finest in all Cheshire. Here the failure in the potato crop is many degrees worse than it is in any of the districts. of,which we have yet spoken. In numerous fields there is not a single green leaf on the potato plants, the stems of which stand up like rows of blackened sticks. From the height and strength of the stems, the growth must have been most luxuriant previous to the blight. Indeed, we were assured that the potatoes were never known to be more luxuriant, or more richly covered with blossoms than about three weeks since. We heard of one farmer here who estimated his loss in one field, in a single week, at 501. In Carrington, on the Cheshire side of the Mersey, and in Flixton, which lies between the Mersey and the Irwell, the destruction is not so great as about Altringham, but the farmers say that every field is diseased, and that the only reason why the crops look better at Altringham is, that they are planted later, and are therefore not so far advanced in their growth. In the midst of this deplorable, and all but universal failure of the potato crop, it is gratifying to be able to say that all the other crops look well in the districts of which we have been speaking. Still, the loss of food and property is enormous, and the potato plant is so universally affected, that it is very doubtful whether it will be either prudent, or even possible to cultivate it in this neighbourhood in future years to any great extent. Since the above article was written the weather has again become very wet and unfavourable for the harvest. —Liverpool Times. THE POTATO DISEASE.—Fof some weeks past there has been a talk, beginning with a whisper and gradually swelling into the loudest tone of confident asser tion, that the potato rot ,is main showin g it se lf to a great extent in this year ' m s crops. At first we were inclined and willing to believe that the rumour was merely the echo of last year's panic work ing upon the proverbial timidity of the farmers. But we can no longer cling to such a hope. We have, at the present moment, letters before us from Ireland, Scotland, Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Devonshire, and Jersey, and, although written from so ninny dif ferent quarters, they all cc r ee in the melan choly anticipation that the failure in the present potato crop will far exceed that of last year. It is remakable that it is showing itself in the same sorts which suffered before from it. " The Scotch reds," and " the shaws," as they call the common white po tato in some pieces, are generally affected, while "the Prince Regents" almost entirely escape. What can be the cause of this distinction? Is it that the last named n h c a i , s t i b w e r e e n fo r m e, c r the e r esceeenitly not i lN nt o r r o n d u o c u e t d ? tb the s P o e t li c i e e r s , But what is-the cause of the disease at all?

How is this same result from exactly I , opposite calues t 9 be aecentuated for i'—Livapc,oi cLoion, ,r ? . HENRY, THE REGICIDE. The Chamber of Peers met on Tuesday, to receive the report of M. Laplagnc-Barris, on the case of Joseph Henry, the regicide. The report is a very long one, but we select from it the following as the most interest ing extracts. After stating that the Chamber of Peers had appointed a Court for the trial of Henry for Id that C -nittr had W' - Lreason, anL ,Liat a ;ommittee ice eon a --- )pointed to draw up a report on the case, the report proceeds to give the following details of the attentat:— " On the 29th of July, at half-past seven in the even ing, at the moment when the concert of the Tuileries was commencing, and before the King, who on enteri ng the balcony of the Pavilion de Illorologe saluted the people, had taken his seat, two reports were beard, succeeding each other so rapidly that many persons in the neighbourhood thought there was only one. A streak of smoke was observed extend ing towards the balcony. The King with his ac customed firmness, refused to quit his place. The crowd, moved and indignant, saluted him again with the most enthusiastic acclamations. The author of the attentat had been seen by several persons pointing the pistols, and firing towards the balcony where the King was standing. lie had afterwards let the pistols fall quickly behind him, and put his hands in his pockets. He answered the first who wished to arrest him, 'lt was not I; you see I have nothing,' at the same time opening his coat, to show that he had no arms; but his denials were contradicted by those who had seen him firing„ and by M. Veyrenc, who picked up the pistols. He was seized by M. Quentin, a shopkeeper's clerk, by the sergeant-de-ville, Legros, and by the drum-major of the 9th Light Infantry, who were standing by. The • man was pale and trembling, and said several times, 'Do not do me any harm; if you choke me I shall not be able to say anything. I shall say nothing.' Before the attentat the brothers Lecomte had ob served the paleness and agitation of the accused, and that he always kept his hands in the pockets of his pantaloons. No attempt to rescue the accused was made by the crowd ; but, on the contrary, the, agents of the public force who had taken him into cus tody had some difficulty in saving him from the public indignation. - Having been taken in the Tuileries, he was searched, and seven Napoleons and six francs in silver were found upon him, besides a watch, and some paper folded up in the shape of wadding. The person arrested declared his name to be Joseph Henry, aged fifty-one years, residing at Paris, at No. 8, Hue de Li moges, where he was a manufacturer of articles in polished steel. He avowed himself the author of the attentat. In answer to questions put to him he de clared that he had been induced to fire on the King by the great misfortunes which he had suffered, and that for six years he wished to commit suicide, but his courage failing, he determined to commit a crime which would oblige others to kill him. In answer to the question why he could have committed so abominable an act as to fire on the King, he replied, "It was necessary to fire at some great person age. To fire is not to kill. If I had touched or made a contusion, I should have been satisfied. In leaving home, I said to myself, fin., touch, or do not touch, it will come to the same thing.' In answer to the question as to what his political opinions were, his answer was, To be an honest man, to my mind, all opinions are division.' Several further questions were put to him, to which he replied, that he usually read the Sih.le, that no one knew of his project, and that he fired on the King because he knew that, however slightly he touched his Majesty, he would be condemned to death; and that he had acted with premeditation, having previously written and signed his plan. He said that the pistols were each loaded with a piece of irGn and strong wadding of white paper. He added that he had meditated the act before, and was prepared to execute it on the Ist of July in mounting guard, but that he was prevented by the fear of bringing disgrace on the Nationl Guard. " The report then goes on to describe the papers found at Henry's house, which show that politics had noning to do with his crime, In one of them—a letter written to a friend—he says, I have suffered morally for is years. I should have been obliged to become bankrupt. I wish to the, but I do not with to kill myself.' In another he says, Intriguers have killed me; this is the consequence of the libertinage of my wife.' And to his eldest son he writes, Charles, my son, be wise and la borious. Obey and you will make your way. Fatality has united us; it divides us. Adieu, adieu. God forgive me. I die to be useful.' No political papers of any kind were found in Henry's house, excepting a religious pamphlet by the Abbe de Lammenais, entitled the Words of a Believer.' The report then describes the spot where the crime was committed. Henry was 62 metres from the balcony where the king was standing, but the bullets had not been found, nor was there - any mark on the balcony that could be supposed to have been caused by them. The pistols, it was ascertained, had been purchased on the 30th of June, in the Passage de l'Opera, for 25 francs. Henry at the time of purchasing them had them loaded by the shop boy, with powder, saying he wanted to frighten some one who was in the habit of stealing his flowers. The pistols were examined by two gun-smiths, who reported that they would carry at the very furthest one hundred metres, but that they were not at all to be depended on, and that it would be impossible to take a correct aim. The report then gives the following particulars of Henry's life : "Joseph Henry was born at Charmes (Haut Soane). He is aged 51, small in size, and of a debilitated appear ance. He came to Paris in 1811, with his father, a journeyman key-maker. Henry himself worked at the same business. Afterwards, by his intelli gence, his address, and his spirit of economy, he • ,waa enabled to form a small establishment. He married, but some years afterwards ne was aban doned by his wife, whose bad conduct appeared to have caused him much pain, and whi c h, accor di ng to ~ _ his own account, was the origin of all his misfortunes. He continued, nevertheless, his manufactory, which was principally for articles in polished steel. His affairs were seldom in a prosperous state. He employed gene rally 25 workmen, but at the time of his arrest he had only 17. He was a good master, but he was sombre and melancholy, and he had more than ordinary pride. He showed no affection for those around him. He had two sons; one with the army in Africa, and the other living with him. During his examinations they were never mentioner, but he abused them. The same was the case with respect to a sister who lives with him. He seems never to have occupied himself with politics, and the opinions that he has from time to time expressed on political subjects are in formal contra diction with the attentat. In the National Guards he • was considered as a vain and strange man, but of moderate opinions. Henry's wif : died some years ago, when separated from him. For some time past Henry's affairs have been in a bad state. He had in stalled in his house a concubine, with whom he had en tered into a deed of partnership. The relations between Henry and this woman had, however, ceased for three or four years past. It appears, however, from an exa minatian of his books, that his affairs were in a bad state, and that he was on the eve of bankruptcy. Six years ago Henry, who wished to ext en d hi s manufac tures, ind a money-lender who advanced him 86,000 francs. This money was all spent. The money-lender was dead, but his mother was pressing for payment; she had, however, agreed to take 25,000 francs in lieu of all demands; on condition of that sum being paid before the month of October next. The desire to get this money occupied Henry's mind for some months, and in the papers found in his house there are continual allusions to it, and to his horror at the idea of bankruptcy, In the hope of getting these 25,000 francs he first ad dressed himself to the King a long petition, of which a copy was found in his house. In the petition he prayed his Majesty either to lend him the money, or to speak to some banker, who, at the request of the King, would have pleasure in advancing the money to Henry. To justify this strange request, Henry said that he had some great discoveries in his possession, which would tend to the happiness and prosperity of the whole world. Henry does not appear to have been angry at the answer he gut from an emplo3e in the King's Cabinet. He knew • that his petition had not been laid before his Majesty. He then applied to M. de Rothschild for the 25,0001., and was very much displeased at getting no answer. He t be the a fa b rication substitute of fo a r ve c n o t a u l r s in o e n , t a i f ile erw a • n a d rds a m. d i d i r as es p s a e e d i, s i i n ni il w ar h i r e e h q u h e o sts sp t o o k il e l. o t f le hLisamdair s- railways, and prevent explosions. H e a l so t h ought w co h v i e e r h ies h a e ntl sai p d rt lj w e ' c o t a s ld for of getting_a wife with money; a widow, or one that was deformed, provided she had 25,000 francs of for tune, would stilt his purpose, and he inserted several advertisements in the newspapers to that effect, and had communication with several marriage agents. The peti tion to M. de Lamartine, shows a degree of exaltation amountinc , to madness, produced by the fear of bank \ ruptcy,-the difficulty of accounting for his losses, and the badness of his books. He appears also to have had a horror at the idea of labouring as a common workman, after having been so long the head of an establishment. He finishes this document by what he calls his confes sion. Ile says he has two culpable ideas; the one to destroy himself, and the other to coin false money, to get himself arrested and convicted, at the same time acting so as to be thought bereft of h - a senses; but he finishes by hoping that his inven tions will at length make his name known, and that a powerful protector will come and deliver him from con finement in the madhouse in which he was placed, and that he should at length be placed in the position of a rentier. There is anolisr paper which Henry calls his premeditation, and which was written shortly before the attentat. It showed a great degree of wildness, and is filled with the idea of committing a real or an imaginary crime. He also expresses another idea in it, that his own example and that of Lecomte may tend to do away with the punishment of death, as their fate is a proof that the fear of death does not prevent great crimes. He finishes the premeditation by saying that ho does not wish to escape death, but he wishes the public to lock on him with less horror." The report concludes by stating that whatever were the views of Henry, whether to attempt the life of the King, or to wound him slightly, the act came within the SGth article of the penal code, which punishes attempts on the life or person of the King with death ; bat it adds that it will be for the consideration of the Court whether the facts of the case do not show that Henry was insane at the time lie committed the act. In favour of the supposition of insanity is the extraordinary nature of the act itself, which was intended to merit death, rather than to be guilty of an actual crime, the nature of the writings found in his possession, and the means adopted to meet his difficulty. On the other hand, however, was the fact of his being, up to the very moment of committing his crime, at the head of an establishment employing a considerable number of workmen, which he conducted to be sure, without much order, but with care and intelligence ; and, as far as the investigations into his past life land gone, feud WV 0 4 !' teen very minute. there , •9.; nothing to shots' writs REMOVAL.

THE FORD ABBEY DEMESNES are to be traced back to a very distant day, and they have ever since maintained their proud superiority over EVERY OTHER MONASTERY IN ENGLAND, It is a splendidly grand and unique building, altogether realising Lord Byron's glowing description of Norman Abbey— An old, old monastry once, and now Still older mansion, of a rich and rare 3lix'd Gothic, such as artists all allow Few specimens yet left us can compare. Its clank front EXTENDS TO NEAR THREE HUNDRED FEET. The order of architecture is in the Tudor style, and may be dated about the time of Henry VIII. ; but to describe it as it deserves is Mt to be far beyond the reach of the limited capacity of the com poser, and even much wiser heads would be puzzled in the attempt to do it justice—it is indeed THE GREAT LEVIATHAN OF THE WEST. its fame has been held in the highest veneration from generation to generation, and it is now avowed to have no successful rival amid the vast variety of monasteries to be found throughout the country. The first impression on beholding this ANCIENT AND CLASSIC PILE the writer feels can never be obliterated from his memory; mind on the instant seemed to be subdued into a most devout and religious state—one of absolute wonder mixed up with bound less admiration; it was a joyous spectacle, but Mr. Robins cannot teo earnestly invoke all those who possess a soul congenial with ob jects of antiquity to go to the Abbey, and then judge for themselves; they will, with one accord, proclaim how absolutely impossible it is to convey in suitable terms the panegyric which would be awarded to it. However, these preliminary remarks must arrive at a conclu sion; the form prescribed to the length of an announcement will not ad mit of more, but the writer promises, in his printed particulars, to go into a little historical statement that will be acceptable, at least to the learned, and all such as are well versed in our history ; and he is fortunately enabled, by the assistance of a very highly talented lady, to aid the historical account of Dugdale by selections of her own, and guided by a judgment and cleverness that has never been held in doubt. To gratify the learned and the curious in distant parts, Mr. Robins has determined to append to the explanatory par ticulars of the several farms and lands a plan of the whole, with a beautiful drawing of the Abbey. The situation Of this monastery is familiar to most of us. It is on the borders of the three fine counties of Dorset, Devon, and Somerset, 15 miles from Taunton, 3 from Chard, about 50 miles from Bristol and Bath, and within a delightful ride of 5) hours from London, which the approaching railway through Chard will reduce to about 4 hours, and also bring it within fifty minutes' rii.e of Exeter. The county in which the Abbey is placed will not yield to any other. The reader needs not be reminded that, in days of yore, the taste of the monks in the selection of their lands was never questioned, and, amidst all the good things of this world, they were remarkable for the accuracy of their judgment. In selecting the best of everything, even THE FAT OF THE LAND was not ACCOUNTED TOO GOOD FOR THEIR REFINED TASTE. This princely property is all freehold of inheritance, surrounded by lawns and pleasure-grounds, with gravelled walks between rows of umbrageous trees of great size and stateliness, interspersed with ornamental waters, cascades, and waterfalls sparkling with foam, mid here and there a statue to diversify the scene. The Park, which is one of great beauty, is stocked with deer, whose venison has ob tained the highest celebrity for its fatness and fine flavour, while the soft undulating foliae of its magnificent and TINIE-HONOURED FREES is perpetually deluding the eye mto a belief that it was of almost boundless extent, and imparting just such an air of tempered wild seas as would gratify the lover of scenery, without offence to those who are inclined to look rather for the evidences of the superintend ing hand of care and cultivation. Indeed everything seems to in crease the charms of a spot so rich in nature's beauties. Of the ornamental waters in front of the Abbey it is recorded — Before the mansion lay a lucid lake, Broad as transparent, deep and freshly fed By a river, which its softened way did take In currents through the calmer waters spread. THE RIVER 'AXE, so renowned by the disciples of Isaak Walton for its placatory plea sures and delicious trout, winds, in serpentine beauty, through the fair demesne. Lost for a space through thickets veering, But broader when agaiu appearing. t was here that _ • The branching stag swept down with all his herd, To quaff a brook which murmured like a bird. It may be asked, •. . "IviinT MORE CAN MORTALS DESIRE ?"

This descrip tion, it is perceived, has al r e4d y e itefi de d b eyon d th e li m its pre scribed, and therefore (with lament)* the writer ends this very im perfect recital, merely observing that the terms used by the foundress of the abbey when she tendered to the holy fathers her manor of Thorncombe, in exchange•for theatarrea lands of Brightley, stating it to be " well wooded and fertile," are trebly appropriate in the present day, in proof -whereof it may be stated that the Messrs.

' Seeing the abundance of unemployed capital (In spite of the railway mania), and the little value of money, the pre sent is a most influential opportunity of possessing an invest ment in land which is preferable to all others—for, as it regards the alteration in the corn-laws, it has been observed •by Mr. Robins, in another notice of sale, a fact which every day renders more and more certain, that "WE HAVE ALL BEEN MORE FRIGHTENED THAN HURT.: , And this fact has been demonstrated in a manner not to be misunder stood, fur slice this assertion was in type,. Mr. Robins has verified it by the sale of two properties exceeding 150,0001., .at 30 and 33% years' purchase, en rackreutals. . Tijere are . . MANORIAL RIGHTS.

The neighbourhood is highly respectable ; many Lords and Nobles are amongst those :who prefer tp domesticate in this ad mired county, and within a few miles of the abbey, in the adjoining county cf Somerset, are the splendid seats of Earl Poulett and Lord Bridport. Markets are everywhere abundant; in fact, Mr. Robins has taxed his ingenuity in vain to try to discover a fault.
