We have made this apparently trivial exception the more willingly, since it testifies that whoever would quarrel with the style of Mr. Warren must, as it were, perforce, de generate into hypercriticism. Somewhere about four months ago we announced in our columns the com pletion of a series of four lectures on the Moral, Social, and Professional Duties of Attorneys and Solicitors, by Samuel Warren, F.R.S., these lectures having beer. delivered in the hall of the Law Insti tution, Chancery-lane, in the course of the Trinity Term just then expiring. The substance of these lectures, developed and extended, mellowed by a sgenerous illustrative supervision, o n r explanatory accompanied notes, by a p has appeared pe r a o rfu s d to us at last in the shape of a goodly and substantial afors m volume nuocthh an f sg 4 i e 4 tl B si se c , closely u epri nt work ed foolscap boouolkd b o efaremarkable similar octavo pages. character fo r n I having to our recollection or knowled g e ever .f before their r passed the Rubicon of the prin e tr ie ga t o s ffic a e n . d lattstoprin cipal aim is to afford bothes an opportunity of properly estimat in g t rela tive positions, to disclose • to every incipient lawyer, as vividly as possible, e attention d o all ils of various ne e h duties and sdteer responsibilities, astob a manner whether lay or professional. To attempt suc h on undertaking is worthy of praise ; to succeed i n its absorb r b and theh t bthis reader accomplishment, as Mr. Warren has succeeded in it, is beyond all commendation. The result is worthy of the author's standing at the bar ; it is more than this, it is compatible with the very rare opportunities he has enjoyed, and is a brilliant evidence of the ex perience which he has derived from the employment of those opportunities. We know of no volume — from quarto to duodecimo—so admirably suited to instil right principles into the mind of the articled clerk when its plasticity is being exercised in the abstruse and intricate study of the laws of England. A more beautiful or more useful present could not be offered to a clerk serving his articles than a copy of this noble-spirited effusion, and the present would come with peculiar grace from the hands of those, whether parents or masters, to whose care the interests of such students are in a par ticular manner confided. Mr. Warren has striven generously to elevate in the imaginations of his auditors—and his auditors are now something beyond the comparative few who listened to the arti culation of his lips from the tribune of the Law In stitution—that branch of the legal profession which is erroneously depreciated as inferior. The delicacy of sentiment, the adroitness of expression, the digni fied and gentlemanly candour with which all this is spoken, are admirable.

Grainger, 'who has been deputed by the Board to make inquiry as to the progress of cholera at Hamburgh :-- ` 4 lt ap pears t h at, i n 1831 and 1832, two hospitals 'were erected for the reception of cholera patients ; in 1833 the plan was abandoned. When the disease broke out in September last, the head police magistrate, who is one of the senators, and head o f the Sanitary Board of Hamburgh, applied to the trustees of the General Hospital (and, it is presumed, to the managers of the two small hospitals, the Jews' and the Freemasons') for permission that those cholera Patients who, owing to circumstances, could not be g r ants passi ng a ttended a t th e i r own homes, such as sailors, emi through the town from the interior, destitute persons, &c., should be admitted int o th e s q h °, B ,P i tal• Thi s appli c ation was advocated by Dr. — "'ac, the me di cal d i rector of the hospital, and was acceded to b y t h e trustees, who consist of respectable Me rchants, &c. " In order to secure proper attendance, the number of nurses was increased, two day and two night nurse s ( ma l e and female according to the ward) being attached t o eac h war d. It i s i mportant to observe that the duty of attending in the cholera Wards is shared in common by all the nurses, male and female, of the hospital, so that eight fresh daily. att endants enter the two cholera wards It is also worthy of remark, that be !leing evinced, the nurses sought the occupation. The ordinary patients of the hospital were not alari ned, according to express inquiries made to as c.ertain this point, in consequence of the admission of thehe cholera case scontrary, they collected in to corridors at the doors of the cholera wards, and neh an extent that the physicians found it neces sary to give orders that the doors should be kept shut.

BURGLARS NEAR YORK —A most desperate attempt at murder and plunder by a gang of burglars, at Mel bourne Hall, the seat of Mr. C. R. Robinson, on the night of Wednesday last, has produced the greatest ex citement in the neighbourhood. On the previous day, Mr. Robinson and his family left home to attend the Union Hunt Club ball, and consequently were absent the whole of that night. This circumstance had evidently attracted the attention of the actors in the scene about to be detailed, and given them the key to an opportunity of plundering the hall. The servants retired to rest at an early hour. About three o'clock in the morning the butler was aroused, and on his opening his bedroom door he saw several men ascending the staircase, each holding a lighted candle. Their faces were blackened, and they wore stockings over their boots to prevent their making any noise. On seeing the men the butler immediately fired a pistol at thew, which appeared, however, not to have touched them. The burglars, b e i ng taken by surprise, fled down stairs and hastened out of the hall. The butler followed, and succeeded in laying hold of one of the fellows, and attempted to secure him, when one of his companions turned back, and a bloody conflict ensued. The villain used a knife in the most determined manner, and made an attempt to cut the butler's throat, which providentially failed. The knif e , however, took effect across his chest, inflicting a deep long gash. He continued his grasp of the ruffian, ex pecting the assistance of his fellow-servants. He was finally overpowered by the wretches cutting his bands and arms, and they all got clear off. They bad gained an entrance to the hall by the cellar window. A com plete description of the villains has been forwarded to all the police stations in the north of England, and their apprehension is hourly expected. The butler is r(co verwg from 1111 fearful irkjurieo. Yesterday the marriage of ,, Lordßurghl ey , M . P. , eldest son of the Marquis and Marchioness of Ex e t er , and Lady Georgians Sophia Pakenham, sec ond daughter ' of the late and sister of the present Earl of Longford, was solemnized at St. George' s Church, Ha nover - square. The Duke of Wellington and the relatives and friends of the bride and bridegroom assembled at the vestry at half-past eleven o'clock, an d were soon afterwards joined by the bride, who came accompanied by her mother the Countess (Dowager) of Longford. The ce remony was performed by the Mu?. and Very Rev. Henry Pakenham, Dean of St. Patrick's and Christ Church, uncle of the bride. The bride was given away by her brother, the Earl of Longford. At the attesta tion of the marriage in the vestry, the register was signed by the Duke of Wellington. After a dejeuner at the mansion of the Countess of Longford, in Bruton street, the bride and bridegroom left for Burghley House, the Marquis of Exeters's seat, near Stamford. ME.

THE CITY OF LONDON MEDICAL OFFICER.—At a meeting of the City Commissi o ners of Sewer s y es t er d ay , some discussion occurred with respect to the remune ration of the medical officer to be appointed. It ap pears some misconception e xists on the subject. The Common Council have voted 1501. as the remuneration of a medical officer during the interval between his ap pointment and the period when the City Health of Towns Bill comes into operation, under which Bill pro vision is made for the employment of such an officer. The Earl of Dartmouth is stated to have pur chased Sir Robert Figott's raloball estate, for 560,004. The Iphigenia, Marine Society's vessel for boys, is to be towed to Woolwich from Deptford to-day, the Venus being now ready for their reception at this port. The Torch steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander ➢lor ris, has arrived at Woolwich to have her defects made good. The Llewellyn steam-vessel was taken to the East India Docks yesterday to have her defects made good at that place. The Driver steam•vessel conveyed Major James's Company from Southampton to Jersey, and returned with Major Hennis's Company, 4th battalion, on being relieved, and the latter joined the garrison at Woolwich on Saturday last. Tun Wziernza.—This week the weather has been generally favourable for securing the remainder of the grain harvest in the uplands. Our mornings are ushered in by mists, which are soon chased away by the sun's rays. On Tuesday night we had a glorious harvest moon, and in several parishes the creaking of the wains from the field to the farm-yard were heard till long after midnight. Our accounts as to the quantity and bulk of the crops are still of an agreeable character. Turnips have improved vastly from the late open weather, the best proof of which will be found in the brisk demand for sheep at the Falkirk Tryst this week. Potatoes are abundantly sup plied in our market at from sd. to 7d. per stone—ae former indifferent in quality ; the latter excellent. We hear little or nothing of the progress of the disease in the country, which we take to be equivalent to good tidings. —Scotch Reformers' Gazette.

STEAM NAVIGATION BETWEEN LIVERPOOL ♦ND NEW YORIC.—We understand that a party in America are commencing with great spirit the organization of a steam navigation company, in opposition to Cunard's splendid line of steamers. A Mr. E. K. Collins, of New York, is the party who has commenced the movement, the arrangements of which are on a grand scale---a re gular go-ahead affair. The proposed new steamers are to be 285 feet long, 46 feat broad, 3,000 tons burden, and with engines of about the same power as the Great Bri tain. The contractor guarantees greater power and ele gance in proportion to size and weight than has ever been attained; each vessel is estimated to cost 500,000 dollars, including half that sum for the machinery; al ready about 2,500,000 dollars are said to be subscribed, and two of these gigantic vessels are expected to be ready by the autumn of 1849.—Mining Journal [ng Oa ►er 01 FRANCE. The following is the programme of the new Ministry, as read from the tribune of the National Assembly yesterday, by M. 'Jur/nate M. Dufaure, Minister of the Interior, ascended the tribune and presented a project of decree, tending to ob tain an additi ona l cre di t of 100,000 f. for secret service purposes. M. Dufaure said that General Ca vaignac, in virtue of the powers vested in him by the Assembly, had i nves t e d several of its members with the direction of the affairs of the country. It was consequently indispensable that it should know the sentiments which animated the new Ministers, and they had sei ze d t h at opportunity to ascertain in , a solemn manner wheth er th ose sentiments were con formable to theirs. It was impossible to conceive two different systems of government. The country bad spontaneously proclaimed the Republic, a Govern ment which called every citizen to participate in the government of the country, a noble insti tution, resting on the principle of the sovereignty of the people, and on liberty, equality, and fraternity, proclaimed eighteen centuries ago by Christian revelation. None but insane men could disown those principles, and they should be culpable if they attempted to elude them and not carry them into effect. Every man, gifted with any elevation in the soul, cannot but render homage to liberty, the source of all progress—to equality, which makes all citizens equal before society and God, who created the m —and fraternity. Th e new Mi n i s t ers would i nqu ire into all social sufferings, and the remedy of those evils would be the incessant object of their solicitude and en deavours. He regretted to say that the very name of Republic inspired fear and distrust, in consequence of the recollections of another period, and the apprehen sions of a return to a system which was now out of the question. This was the real cause of the distrust, by inspiring doubts for the future, and the country hesi tated to trust in a Government which did not afford it every security. These apprehensions, sincere and fatal, constituted the weakness of the present Govern ment. The new Ministers should, by every means, com bat those apprehensions, and endeavour to demons trate to the people that the Republic was not a n agitated state of society and the revolution en permanence. They would labour to seat it o n th e solid basis of liberty, society, family, and property. The country no longer tho ug ht o f monarc h y , but it knew that, without the fulfilment of those conditions, no Govern ' ment could endure. It recollected that fifty years ago, France threw herself into the arms of military despo tism from a horror of anarchy. The Cabinet would strive to put a period to all disorders and to re alize pri nciples so w i se l y proclaimed, which ensured inviolability to the humblest citizens, under the pro tecting aegis of the Republic. The future destinies of Europe depended on the restoration of order and tranquillity in France. The cause of liberty and ci vilization were also at stake. The Ministers would endeavour to realise those objects; their acts should ever tend to that end, and they should be constantly animated by a profound love of the Republic. They, however, hoped that the Assembly should grant them a support and confidence, without which power would expire in their hands." DENMARK. On the 6th instant, being the anniversary of the King's birthday, and the period fixed for the general election of the states of the kingdom, his Majesty received the representatives in the palace of Chris tianburg, and was addressed by the President in a speech from which we quote the following pas sage : .._ . . The Danish people will be always ready to make every sacrifice that may be required for the defence of the boundaries of the country and the honour of the nation. They will recollect with the most lively gratitude that the promise of a free constitution was made by the King, motu propris, immediately after his accession, whilst, in other countries, such conces sions were only extorted from Princes by popular insurrections." The King expressed his satisfaction at these as surances in appropriate terms, and renewed his pro mise to base the strength of his kingdom on the love of his people. In the evening a general illumination took place, and the King paraded the streets on horse back amid the acclamations of his subjects. The result of the elections has been favourable to the Ministry, which is composed of members of the democratic party. The States are to be opened on the 23d inst., at Copenhagen. ITALY. - The Piedwentese Gazette, of the 12th instant, an nounces that Baron Hector Perrone de San Mar tino, Minister for Foreign Affairs, had been ap pointed President of the Council, in the place of the Marquis Alfieri de Sostegno, whose resignation had be(ri accepted. Another decree of King Charles Albert revoked the extraordinary powers conferred on Get eral Durando on the 6th ult., the causes which had rendered that measure necessary having ceased to exist. The King reviewed on the 11th the gar ri?,on of Turin, composed of 10 ; 000 men, and was rcceired with the greatest enthusiasm by the troops and population. The National Congress of the Italian League met at Turin on the 11th, under the presidency of M. Mandan, and divided itself into three sections—political, economical, and military. Count Cabrio Cassati was elected chairman of the first section ; P. Sterbini, of the second ; and General Racchia of the third. The Congress afterwards pro ceeded to admit the Neapolitan members, Spaenta, Massaria, and Leopardi, and the Roman members, Sterbini and Pino. The Tuscan Professor Giorgini had not arrived. The Lords of the Admiralty have placed her Majesty's steamer Lightning at the disposal of his Ex cellency Count Reventlow, who will proceed in her on Thursday morning to Copenhagen. We believe that this visit of the Danish Minister has been rendered necessary by the negotiations still pending for the settle ment of the Schleswig-Holstein question. ARRIVALS AT HULL.—Recent arrivals at this im portant northern port from foreign parts have com prised the large number of 117 vessels in the space of a week, being the largest number we remember to have taken place in the time at the port alluded to. They were laden with various articles, the pr.( ducts of foreign countries, and comprised among other supplies of different articles of food, the fol lowing large importation of corn from pc its in Europe, viz., 10,820 quarters and 2,304 bags of wheat, 849 bags and 2,961 quarters of peas, 12,218 quarters and 3,411 bags of barley, 1,906 quarters and 824 bags of beans, 443 bags and 6,248 quarters of oats, 52 bags and 156 quarters of rye, 30 quarters of tares, 390 bags of bran, and 400 bags of pollard. The whole of this large num ber of vessels, with but one or two exceptions, arrived from the northern and central states of Europe, with the usual imports from those several countries. SUSPECTED MURDER.—From circumstances which have transpired, there is reason to fear that the young woman whose body we s t ate d l ast wee k h ad b een f oun d in a ditch, had been murdered. It appears that her name was Abbott. She was a widow, and a witive of liawkhurst. She had been in ser vice at Gravesend, and was about to go thence to Maidstone, and stopped at the Silver Oar on her way. She left that house on Friday morning with very re spectable apparel, and had just reeetved change for a sovereign. When found in the ditch, in which there was barely water enough to cover her, her bonnet was off, some of her clothing and her money gone, and a piece o f carpet covered over her head, which she tightly clenched with one band, and it seemed evident that the poor creature was suffocated in the mud. The police are using every means to unravel the mystery.._ Maidstone Journal Love AND SUIgIDE.—Last night, an inquest was held on the body of James Hierns, aged twenty, late potman at the Horse Shoe, Goswell-road. Deceased was a very steady young man, and bore an excellent character, but he had f orme d some connexion with a female living at Highgate, to whom he appeared much devoted. Latterly it seemed that there had been som e di spute between them, which weighed heavily upon his nsind. He became exceed ingly despondent, and sometimes spoke of destroying himself, but would immediately afterwards exhibit such consciousness of his folly, that it was not thought that he would have committed so rash an act. On Friday morning he awok e rat h er strange i n his manner, and in the evening, having procured some arsenic, for the pur pose of killing rats, as he said, he swallowed the poison, and died from its effects on Sunday morning. Verdict —" Temporary insanity." VON RATIJEN'S COMPRESSED AIR LOCOMOTIVE.— In noticing an experiment with the Baron's machine, identical, if we mistake not, with one some weeks since recorded in the Builder, even down to a stoppage at Wandsworth, a correspondent, who " hails with pleasure the ingenuity of the idea of fabricating, wholesale, a propelling power, as if it were cotton" (gun cotton ?), says that " the plan of the in ventor," •so far as he understands it, "is to have large steam-engines fitted up at stations, at nearly voluntary distances, to be regulated by the nature and extent of the traffic —say at ten, twenty, or thirty miles the one from the other ; also to have extensive stationary reservoirs at each of these stations. where the propelling power is extensively fabricated. The locomotive reservoir-tenders are filled with compressed air from these, of an adequate power calculated for the distance, and the locomotive is then charged." " The economy," ho continues, " must be very great in thus fabricating the power wholesale." Without identifying our own opinion with that of our correspondent, or indeed offer iny opinion on the merits of the Baron's pt rsevering endeavours to perfect his mew mode of propulsion, we may here remark that the idea reminds us of one some tim e s i nce s t ar t e d f or th e fabri cation of locomotive force by means of powerful springs, wound up by stationary steam-engines, and shipped— like the Baron's bottles of wind, or rather like the main spring and drum of a watch—with fitting apparatus, re gulators, &c., on to some simple wheeled machinery for locomotion.— The Builder. At the meeting on Monday last of the West-end Joint Tenant Association, Edgeware-road, Mr. George Wiggall in the chair, a letter from Lord John Russell was read, declining to give any explanation as to vibe tiler lodgers were entitled to vote under the •, J o i n t Ratepaying Clauses" of the Reform Act.
