The sole and important obj ec t thi s S oc i e t y has in view will be to publish and supply at a very moderate or cheap rate such elemen mentary works as are considered eminently calculated to teach the untutoredyouth and adult learner, in the most ready and successful manner, in the shortest space of time, and without any further exe pens* to them than that consequent upon the purchase of " Th- Schoolmaster at Home," 3s. 6d. ; " The Book for the Million," ss. 6d. ; and, finally, if their means will permit, " The Young Gentleman's Book." These volumes of "The Library of Elemen tary Knowledge" are sold at a price which it will be clearly per ceived cannot cover the cost of paper, printing, &c., leaving the labours of the editor wholly unremunerated. But upon this point the Society would be distinctly understood ; not only the literary, but also the current expenses or disbursements, including the salary of the managing director, are proposed to be defrayed out of the funds of the Society, which are already in a condition to enable the Committee to prosecute the prospective desideratum, the ultimate accomplishment of which must be looked forward to with increasing and devout anxiety. The benevolent and pious ministers of our indestructible Protestant Church are hereby deferentially called upon respectively to render what assistance they can, if not by pri vate and unostentatious subscriptions to the funds, by their literary contributions of an elementary and educational kind ; together with what other moral and religious essays they may conceive of, both for the mediate and immediate advantages of this Society, the one superior concernment of which is to quicken the enlightenment of the uneducated of all ranks and conditions of their Protestant and other Christian brethren. To those eminent for their rank, fortune, and influence, the So ciety, through their :Managing Director, addresses itself especially in the full and fair hope that however limited their Subscriptions may prove to be, they will render that aid at a time when the largest share of assistance is most needed—namely, at the beginning of an undertaking so altogether worthy of their benevolent and re ligious consideration. - Another and perhaps most desirable manner of forwarding the one great object and vital interest of this Society might be privately accomplished by humane and wealthy Christians (who modestly despise ostentatious charity, as well as the publicity of it), by pur chasing their elementary works for the only purpose of giving them to those uneducated persons whom they may consider worthy ob jects of their charity, and who may stand in need of instruction. The Committee respectfully intimate, that they see no reason whatever for publishing the names of subscribers from time to time, thereby creating an expense to no good end; and further, that all and every Subscription will be duly registered, and may be investi gated by any known subscriber, on application at the Secretary's Office, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, between the hours of twelve and three o'clock ; that all communications of a literary character may be addressed, post paid, to the Managing Director and Honorary Secretary. But that letters containing Subscrip tions should be addressed to the Select Committee at the Society's Office, April, 1835. T. H. CORNISH, Hon. Sec. Kairon gnothi—Fugit Nora. ABelief in the existence of the fountain of youth, from which those who bathed in its waters gained a pristine energy, was among the speculations of the 15th century ; it will, however, serve as no inapt type of the revivifying powers of art and medicine. Those who, early victims to a morbid imagination, have sought fatally to anticipate the purposes of nature, and have consequently lapsed. into a state which brings with it weakened ca pabilities and clouded hopes, may by timely application to profes sional treatment, regain those first, noblest, and best of powers that have been compromised by the criminal propensities of " guilty soli tude." the progress of which is marked by the " lymphatica som nia' of Pliny, attended with bodily weakness and mental apathy. We may indulge a natural exultation in referring to our daily cor respondence with grateful and convalescent patients, not confined to our own country, but diffused over the whole world. For twenty five years has our peculiar treatment in cases of Nervous Debility proved eminently successful, and we have hitherto resisted the earnest solicitations of our patients to publish their cases in a public address • the following, however, has been so urgently pressed upon us by a medical friend, that we have yielded to an importunity suf ficiently excusable by the gratitude it evinces : " Dear Sirs--My fondest hopes are realized ! Accept my most neartfelt thanks ; words are inadequate to express my unbounded gratitude. May you long live to reap the rich reward of your labours in the treatment of that class of diseaseswhich have hitherto baffled the skill of your medical brethren. ' Nov. 18,32."

The following is the text of the requisition presented by the Attorney-General, calling on the Court to exclude the refractory prisoners from the Court : " The King's Procureur-General at the Court of Peers, " In consequence of the decision of the Gth inst., which decides that the measures necessary to ensure the free course of justice shall be taken in case new disorders shall be committed by the accused ; as instead of obeying this warning, certain prisoners by their violent manifestations, and by a tumult which appears the result of a concerted system, endeavour to render the regular course of the trial impossible ; as the impossibility of continuing the proceedings in presence of those accused individuals is evident ; as likewise, if it could depend on the accused parties to impede by any means whatsoever the course of an affair, the public power would belong to the them, and anarchy would usurp the place of justice ; as toleration to this rebellion against the law would be in reality a denial of justice towards society, and towards such of the accused as exercise their right to claim judgment ; and as it belongs to the Court to oppose the renewal of such scandalous proceedings, and to ensure justice to society and to the peaceable portion of the accused individuals who claim it,— " Requires that it may please the Court, deciding on the extent of the discretionary power indispensable for the d . re2.tion of the proceedings, to authorise the President to expel from the audience, and to reconduct into prison, every accused individual who may disturb the order of the proceedings ; the Registrar being charged to take note of the proceedings, and, at the termination of the audience, to render an account of them to the accused individual ex pelled, in order that the affair may be thus continued in its ensemble, both with respect to the accused parties present, and with respect to these whom their acts of violence may have cause,l to be expelled from the Court." The Peers remained in deliberation, after the rising of the Court, till seven o'clock, and the President, in a long address, argued against the conclusions of the Procureur- General, in so far as the proposal of proceeding with the trial in the absence of the prisoners was contrary to all precedent. This opinion was supported by several other Peers. After a long and warm discussion, a Committee of seven Members was appointed to consider the question, and to report upon it to-day. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. (From the Hampshire Telegraph.) PORTSMOUTH, MAY 9.—The Royal Tar steamer hove-to yesterday morning at Spithead, and landed passengers and despatches, in seventy-two hours only, from Santander, on the north coast of Spain. The despatches, it is believed, are of some importance ; indeed it appears from the information we have received that the actual civil war in that country is only now beginning, and that the contest in Portugal has every prospect of an early renewal. The Royal Tar has been for the last six or eight months employed on the north coast, with the broad pendant of Commodore Henry, who has the command of the Queen's naval force, which fortunately has little to do, for a more indolent naval establishment than it is, is hardly to be imagined. News travels in Spain but at a very slow rate, and by devious channels ; but as Austuria and Galicia are both decidedly in the Queen's favour, we may fairly be lieve that reports to the prejudice of her cause will not be overrated in passing through such districts ; we place, there fore, confidence in such accounts as we have heard through France of the disastrous result of the battle of Amescoa to the Queen's cause, for at Santander it was openly declared that Valdez had lost 5,000 men ; that many of his troops, in addition to this number, had thrown away their arms in the confusion of their hasty retreat, and that the loss of Zuma lacarregui's troops did not exceed 1,500 men ; in addition to which the fight had concentrated all the Carlist corps in good positions and had given them an opportunity to secure the whole of the garrison of Bilboa, which it was strongly believed had been betrayed into their hands b y the defection of Iriarte, w h o , it appears , h a d marc h e d out the garrison, consisting of 4,000 men, under a plea of making an escort to open the road to Vittoria, for some purpose or other ; and had, by placing his men in de tached villages, allowed them to be surprised, defeated, and captured in detail. Bilboa was exposed to an immediate at. tack, which was daily expected, and would only be made for the purpose of exacting a contribution, as the Carlists would not be able to keep the town in their possession, the Queen's troops having it always in their power to get to the heights which overlook it. From Portugal we have information that a strong party was forming in the Tras-os-Montes, in favour of Don Miguel, with whom they were in constant communica tion through Vigo ; and, indeed, on the 31st ult. a Sardinian steamer arrived in the Tagus, and her passengers asserted that Don Miguel had already quitted Italy, and intended to land somewhere in Portugal —probably in the Algarve!. We have accounts from Malta to the 9th ult. The follow ing is from our correspondent : " MALTA, APRIL 9.—Twenty-three ships belonging to the Mediterranean squadron are now lying at Malta, where so many British pendants have never before been seen in port at one time, viz.:—Caledonia, Canopus, Edinburgh, Malabar, Revenge, Thunderer, Endymion, Portland, Tyne, Vernon, Favourite, Orestes, Scout, Beacon, Mastiff, Childers, Ceylon, Hind cutter, Medea, African, Alban, Blazer, and Confiance steamers. " The Sir George Canning sailed again for the Orontes on the 21st of March, under the escort of the Columbine, in lieu of the Alban, which did not reach Malta. The Alban pro ceeds on the 12th with Lady Ponsonby and family for Naples. Extract of a letter from Ascension (received in this town), dated Feb. 21 ;—" Since the capture of the Spanish slaver, the Formidable, of eight guns (pierced for 22), and 66 men, with 732 slaves, by the brigantine Buzzard, 10, Lieut. ward (acting) on the 17th of December, after a smart action and boarding, the Pelorus has taken a schooner, with 300 slav es , after four hours' - chase, which sailed from the Old Calabar river on the same evening as the Formidable ; the Lynx has captured the Portuguese brig Aturvide, with 494 slaves, and the Rosamond, a small schooner, with 48 slaves. The For midable had six men killed, eleven severely, and six slightly wounded, besides a number of the poor miserable captives. The Buzzard had seven men wounded. That vessel has now resumed herstation off Old Calabar, looking out for a Spanish bargue, with seven guns and 700 slaves on board, bound to the Havannah. The Pelorus and Brisk are daily expected to be relieved by the Pelican and Curlew." The Dublin, 52 guns, Capt. Hope, was at Madeira on the 17th of April, in only seven days from Plymouth. She pro ceeded to Rio de Janeiro on the following morning. The Jupiter, armed en flute, Captain A'Court, is ordered to be paid off. Arrived this evening, our old little favourite, the Marquis of Anglesey, of 32 tons only, Saunders master, from Lisbon, having left that place on the 30th ult., with dispatches,: which she landed at Falmouth on Wednesday. The English squadron was all well, but consisted only of the Hastings, Stag, and Pantaloon; the latter vessel was to bring to England the mail on Sunday last, and should reach Falmouth to-day. The packet ship Philadelphia, Capt. Morgan, from New York, which city she left on the 12th:ult. landed about ninety passengers here last evening, and a mail. The Constitution, an American frigate, left Havre on Tues day last, with Mr. Livingstone and family, the American Am bassador to France, on board, to convey him to New York. The ship Union, for New York, is the only merchant-vessel at Spithead. Particular orders have been received at this port respecting vessels arriving from Alexandria, in Egypt, as it is known that six English vessels, infected with plague, and laden with cot ton, are on their way to England.

I !The Arachne, 18 guns, Commander Burney, with a freight of specie on board, from Vera Cruz, arrived this morning at Spithead. (From the Devonport Telegraph.) DEVONPORT, MAY 9.—His Majesty's ship Inconstant, build ing at Portsmouth, after the model and under the superinten dence of Commodore J. Hayes, C. B. will probably be C orn+ pleted for launching about October next. She is a fine frigate, pierced for 36 guns, and possesses all the qualities essential to a man of war of her class. The Cleopatra, new, 26, was launched at Pembroke-yard last week, and is immediately to be taken round to Sheer ness, by Mr. Walker, Master's Assistant, of this yard, to be fitted for commission. The ceremony of christening was per formed by Miss Savage, daughter of Captain Savage, of the Engineers. The Camel lighter arrived on Monday with stores from Pem broke, and will proceed for Dublin to transport the late Lord Lieutenant of Ireland's baggage to Deptford. The Rainbow, 28, was off St. Vincent on the 7th of March the North Star, 28, and Goldfinch Packet, arrived at Bahia, SITTING OF SATURDAY. At one o'clock, the prisoners of Lyons were introduced, escorted by double their number of municipal guards. Lagrange. dressed in a blouse, particularly fixed the atten tion of the spectators. His long flowing black hair fell in curls on his shoulders, and showed out his noble and manly countenance. He was given in charge to four municipal guards. Each of the other prisoners had a soldier placed on each side, with the exception of Caussidiere, the father, who was treated with the same favour as Lagrange. M. Beaune took his usual seat in front of his colleagues, and was, on this occasion, separated from his friend Martin by a brigadier of the municipal guards. The prisoners of Pa ris, and the sub-officers of Cuirassiers, were next brought in, and placed in the back seats, each guarded by a couple of soldiers. The prisoners, when seated, were entirely concealed by the shakos of the military, whose number could not be less than 250. None of the accused of Paris occupied the places they held on Thursday. M. Cavaignac had also four soldiers to guard him. Within a quarter to two the Court entered with the usual ceremony. The prisoners uncovered, but remained sitting. About fifteen lawyers, dressed in their robes, were in attendance, but begged of the Journalists not to publish their names. M. Feistamel, the Colonel of the Municipal Guards, placed himself in front of the accused, to be at hand, no doubt, to transmit the necessary orders to his men. M. Cauchy, the Secretary, then called over the names of the Peers. Four of them did not reply. The President proceeded next to read the decision of the Court. After enumerating the different breaches of re spect committed by the accused against the Court, consi dering, moreover, that they had been found guilty of con tempt of the law, in declining to reply to the questions of the President in preventing the decision of the Court which denied them the choice of their Counsel, and the bill of in dictment being read ; in repeating, during the three pre ceding days, that clamour, and showing by their obstinate and boisterous interruptions, that they were determined on impeding the course of justice, in preventing the Attorney- General reading the conclusions he had thought proper to take against the most riotous, and placing the Judges under the necessity of adjourning, from the impossibility of pro ceeding on with the trial, the Court, he said, had come to the resolution, in case such scenes of disorder were re peated, to empower their President to order the removal from the hall of those prisoners who should hereafter act with indecency and disrespect towards the Court, and have them tried together or individually at a future day ; and further, to direct that the bill of indictment be read in their absence, and the trial be continued as if they were present. The prisoners listened to the reading of this arr'dt in the greatest silence, but no sooner was it concluded than they -all rose and protested their determination not to lend them selves to the mockery of a trial without being aided by Counsel of their choice. Another of those scenes which had marked the preceding audiences here took place. Beaune, Cavaignac, Lagrange, Guinard, and Thomas, ad dressed the liveliest and most energetic interpolations to the Court, and the President finding it impossible to obtain silence ordered the dock to be cleared, and the accused to be conducted to their prison. On hearing this decision all the young barristers rose and left the hall in a body. The removal of the prisoners was effected in great confusion. Some of them having put on their caps the soldiers tore them off, and in one corner of the hall a struggle occurred between one of the Paris prisoners and the guard by his side. The Court remained sittinc , for about an hour. M. Mar tin (du Nord) and the four other prosecuting officers of the Crown appeared to be busily engaged drawing up some paper. The most profound silence prevailed in the hall. None of the Peers left their seats. Twenty-eight of the prisoners of Lyons were then.intro duced, and after they had been seated for some time the President directed M. Cauchy to read the act of accusation. Lagrange, who was among the prisoners in the dock, here rose and repeated his protest. M. Martin (du Nord) the Attorney-General (without allowing time to proceed with his address) invited the Pre sident to execute the decision of the Court, and order the exclusion of Lagrange. The President, agreeably to this injunction, commanded the mu n i c ip a l guar d s to remove the prisoner, who continued protesting, in his name and that of his absent comrades, against the tyranny of their Judges. The municipal guards seized on him, and lifted him from his seat, but could not stop his address in the least. He concluded his apostrophe by calling on them to take his head, and add it as a trophy to that of the bravest of the brave, for whose murder, he said, they would some day be brought to a severe account. Lagrange then left the hall, escorted by his four guards. M. Cauchy then proceeded to read the acte d'accusa lion, without any opposition from the prisoners, who all of them appeared to belong to the lowest order. None of them, however, were attended by their Advocates. [Left sitting at half-past three.] We hear from Paris, that the Comtesse de Fl—h—t is anxiously looking out for some new English beauty to orna ment her saloon, and captivate a certain Royal Duc, whose taste she has lately shown such, an amiable desire to gratify. Within the last five months nine paupers have died in Blandford workhouse, whose ages averaged 75 years, and there are at this-time in the same house exactly the same num ber whose average age is 74. PRICE 7D. WINDOW TAX. DEPUTATION TO THE CHANCELLOR OF TOE EXCHEQUER. On Saturday afternoon, at three o'clock, a very numerous and highly-respectable deputation from the nine parishes of Westminster waited, by appointment, on Mr. Spring Rice, Chancellor of the Exchequer, for the purpose of pressing on the Right Hon. Gentleman the propriety of abolishing the Window Tax. The deputation having been seated, Mr. ATECKET stated to the Right Hon. Gentleman the purpose for which the deputation waited on him. They came to represent to him the inequality and severe pressure of the window tax. Some idea might be formed of the inequality of this obnoxious impost when he stated that, in the parish of St. Ann, Westminster, there were houses which only paid a rental of 401. per year which paid as much window tax as the mansions of Noblemen in the country whose rental was 6001. per annum. In the parish of St. Margaret again, there were houses which only draw a rental of 30/., which pay as much window duty as the houses of the aristocracy in Great George-street, which let at a rental of 300/. per annum. He (Mr. A'Beckett) did not wish the Right Hon. Gentleman to give any specific pledge on the sub ject of the repeal of the window tax : all that he expected, and all that the deputation expected, was, that he would take the subject into his serious consideration. He was sure that if this tax were taken off, the revenue, instead of being diminished, would increase by the change, in consequence of the addi tional consumption of glass, which is heavily taxed, and the. greatly increased employment it would give to all classes of workmen, which would enable them to purchase taxed arti cles. There had been a great deal of agitation on the sub ject of this obnoxious impost for many years past. Peti tions had been got up in all the parishes of the metropolis, praying for the abolition of the tax, and those petitions were signed by seven-eighths of the inhabitants of the different parishes. They had only ceased to agitate on the subject, because the Reform Bill was introduced in 1832 ; and they being great friends to that measure, from which they expected to derive great benefits, were unwilling to retard it by pressing their demands for the abolition of this duty. So obnoxious was the tax, that to save a few shil lings many houses were locked up in the metropolis, and in others light was excluded, though so injurious to health. Sir John Cam Hobhouse, and Lord Althorp and Sir Ro bert Peel, who severally filled the office which the. Right Hon. Gentleman now occnpied, were all acquainted with the facts connected with the oppressive operation of the window -tax, as they had been submitted to them by Depu tations similar to the present, who waited on them at diffe rent times. The gentlemen present were all friends to re form, and also to the present Administration ; and he therefore hoped that the Right Hon. Gentleman would take the subject into his serious consideration. Mr. WALKER, churchwarden of the parish of St. Paul, Covent-garden, said that he would rest the case, which the Deputation begged to submit to the Right Honour able Gentleman, on higher grounds than the gentleman who had just spoken. He would rest it on the high grounds of its injustice, as well as the inequality of its pressure. He was prepared to show the window-tax was as unequal and unjust as the house-tax. Houses having from one to forty windows were charged Bs. 6d. for each window. The consequence of this heavy pressure on houses occupied by tradesmen and others in humble cir cumstances is, as is well known, the exclusion, in a great measure, of light and air, not only so conducive to health, but even necessary to existence. In house% where the windows are from 40 to 100, the tax on each window is ss. ; from 100 to 180, the tax is 4s. ; and where the number is above 180, there is no tax at all. Mr. S. RlCE—Pardon me, Sir, but you will find you are mistaken in the last statement. Mr. WALKER—I may be mistaken ; I am liable to error; but 1 copied my statements from a printed docu ment this morning. Mr. S. RICE—You will find, Mr. Walker, you are in error. I will get the last report on the subject. [Mr. Spring Rice here sent for the work in question ; but, on his return, did not say whether he or Mr. Walker was correct. The general impression was, that Mr. Wal ker's statement was the correct one.] Mr. WALKER resumed.—But there is another view in which the question may be considered. It had been ad mitted by all the statements which the Right Hon. Gentle man and others had made on the subject of taxation, as well as proved by experience, that, owing to the conse quently increased consumption of exciseable articles, the revenue never loses above one third by the repeal of any tax. Now he could prove that the revenue would lose no thing by the abolition of the window-tax ; for if, in conse quence of the additional consumption of taxed articles, two thirds of the 1;200,000/. derived from this tax would find its way to the Exchequer the remaining one-third, or 400,0001., would be made up by the country being saved the expense of the machinery necessary for collecting the tax ; he therefore trusted the Right Hon. Gentleman would take the case into his serious consideration. If the one half of the tax were only taken off now, and the re mainder in 1836, the country would be satisfied. Mr. ABBOTT said that another reason for the repeal of this tax was the impediment it offered to the working of the Reform Bill, as no one can vote for a candidate who has not paid his taxes. Mr. SPRING RICE then spoke to the following effect : The case has been very ably and fairly stated by the gen tlemen who have just spoken, but the position in which the country stands just now, prevents me from saying anything further than that I will give the case my best consideration. It will be in the recollection of all the gentlemen present, that my Right Hon. predecessor, Sir Robert Peel, has sta ted that the surplus in the revenue this year would only be 250,000/. Now, as Lord Althorp, during the few years he filled the office of Chancellor of the Exchequer, practised economy to the greatest possible extent, I cannot with so small a surplus do anything towards the feduction of taxes. It is as much my inclination as it is my duty, to pursue the same course in this respect as the Noble Lord. If there were a large surplus, it would be but fair to reduce i;:ose taxes which press most severely on the lower and middling classes, to as great an extent as is compatible with the safety of the institutions of the country. If yottlook at the large debt which wo have contracted, and of which we have so much reason to complain, it will be found that the great body of those who are the public creditors are not noble or aristocratic classes, but such persons as yourselves, your own friends and acquaintances. It is therefore as much the interest of the middling and lower classes as it is of the higher, that faith should be kept with the public cre ditor ; and while I have the honour to be Chancellor of the Exchequer, I will always take care never to do any thing for the sake of popularity, or from any other conside ration incompatible with the safety of the institutions of the country. You would in the highest degree disapprove of the conduct of any man who in private life would be guilty of a breach of faith, and I am sure you would be ashamed of your Chancellor of the Exchequer, if I did any thing inconsistent with public integrity. Ido not see, as I have already said, what I can do towards the reduc tion of taxes, with so limited a surplus as 250,0001. ; espe cially, I do not see how I could take off such a tax as this, which yields a revenue of 1,200,0001. I just wish to say a word with respect to what has fallen from Mr. Walker. It is quite true that in various cases the reve nue only loses a third of what is derived from a certain tax by the reduction of that tax. But that only holds good where a great consumption of the article follows the reduction of the tax. That could not be the case in the present instance, because the tax is proposed to be abolished altogether. Ido not defend the principle of the window tax ; it is bad, as all taxes are ; they are necessary evils, which is the best description that can be given of them—but I wish to convince you that it was not for the purpose of favouring the rich that the present scale of the Window Tax was fixed on. I will give the subject the best consideration in my power, and while saying this, let me add that I have felt it my duty to give you as much information on the subject, and to speak to you as frankly as if I had been addressing the House of Commons. ]When the Right Hon. Gentleman concluded, it was with difficulty the deputation could suppress audible manifestations of ap plause in consequence of the intelligence, frankness, and urbanity of manner he displayed.] _ _ Mr. - THURSTON said that if the Window Tax were re pealed, tenants and lodgers would get their rents reduced. Mr. SPRING RICE.—If tenants and lodgers expect that, they will be mistaken. The terms between landlord and tenant will always be regulated according to their mutual necessities, and not by the repeal of this tax. The landlords alone would benefit by that repeal. Mr. THURSTON was satified that rents would proportion ably fall were this tax abolished. It was a war tax, and was to have ceased on the return of peace. The Deputa tion are the friends of the present Government, and— Mr. SPRING RICK.--I am sure of that, and lam dis cussing the subject with you in the most friendly manner. The bst way to deserve your friendship is to do justice to all parties, and:l am anxious to consult equally the interests of all. Mr. THURSTON—We are convinced of that, and I am Cl4l/ 1 - 1 0 Veggio, a to, . .toom er of the *est minster Conservative Club calla ty' s !and paid, " Oh, we hav e a G ove rnmeninow w ho vffi break faith with the public !" Mr. SPRING R ICE , slightly smiling—Oh ,Do, we mean nothing of the kind. We are most anxious to pr ;eserve the institutions of the country, and will do • faith with the public credit or . everything o keep Mr. THURSTON—I am glad to hear you say so ; we shall now have an answer to the Tories. The Deputation then rose and were about to depart,. when the Chancellor of the Exchequer, taking two beau tiful glass plates out of a secretaire, handed them to ,-, the gentlemen for inspection, remarking that they weire of British manufacture, and that but for the high tax on glass, a trade might he carried on in this country in the manufacture of that article, which might in a few years equal in extent the woollen and cotton trades. At present the Americans having no tax to operate agaimt them, we were wholly unable to compete with them. He mentioned this as an illustration of the many conflicting 'laims presented by different branches of trade to a repeal or reduction of taxation, could Government only afford to diminish the public revenue. When they looked at the beautiful workmanship in these plates, which were made at Birmingham, it must be matter of deep re gret to all that the glass trade should be destroyed by the tax on glass. A GENTLEMAN—What, Sir, is the amount of annual revenue derived from the tax on glass ? Mr. SPRING RlCE—About 600,0001. The glass plates were admitted by all present to be the most beautiful specimens of workmanship they had ever seen. They were richly ornamented by a variety of gilt devices worked into the glass, which produced the most pleasing effect. The Deputation then withdrew, after more than an hour's interview. THE EUPHRATES EXPEDITION. ( From the Malta Gazette, March 18. ) The George Canning transport arrived here on Thursday last, having on board Colonel Chesney, with the Officers an& men who are about to proceed to Syria for the purpose of establishing a steam communication to India by the river Eu phrates. This arduous and important undertaking having been authorised by Parliament, and approved off by his Majesty, has been entrusted to Colonel Chesney, of the Royal Artillery, who has already passed through the countries he has to ex plore • and we sincerely wish him every success. There are man/difficulties to be overcome, but from the known talents: of the Officer chosen to command the expedition, and the cha racter and experience of its members, the most sanguine hopes may be entertained of its satisfactory result.

With Assistant Interpreters, Assistant Engineers, &c. &c. The experiment of a steam communication between our In dian possessions and the mother country was first tried, at a. great expense, in the year 1825, by the Enterprize steamer, which made the voyage by the Cape of Good Hope to Calcutta. in 113 days ; but as the average of a sailing vessel is not more than 120 or 130 days, no advantage, adequate to the sacrifices, was to be gained by the old route. Ever since that period it has been a favourite speculation to establish a communication across the land between the Indian Ocean and the Mediterra nean, by which a great saving of distance and time may be gained in the transmission of mails, and the passage of tra vellers to and from India. This object was considered so de sirable by the last Parliament that a sum of 20,0001. was voted to promote it. Two lines present themselves; namely, that, by Egypt and the Red Sea, and that by Syria, the Euphrates, and the Persian Gulf. The former of these lines is in the course of experiment, by the new arrangements of his Majesty's Government in England, for carrying on the Mediterranean mail, by a monthly branch packet from Malta to Alexandria ; whence, with the co-operation of the enlightened Pacha of Egypt, it is immediately to be transmitted to Suez, there to be again taken up by periodical steamers, which, it is expected, the community of India will be able to send up the Red Sea to meet it. The line, however, by the-Euphrates, it is calcu lated may be shorter. Both are subject to physical difficulties which it is of consequence should be investigated and tried. On the whole subject there is a detailed article in the " Edin burgh Review," published in January last, which seems to prefer, as far as distance is concerned, the line by the Eu phrates. " The most direct run," says that publication, "which steamer could possibly make to Bombay (by the Cape of Good Hope) would be ! 0,700 miles; the actual run of a sailing vessel is seldom less than 14,000, and is sometimes very nearly 17,000 miles. But some deviations there must be ; and if we reduce the distance for a steamer to 12,000 miles, we presume it will be as much as we can reasonably do, in the present state of our experience. " A line drawn on a Mercator's chart of the world, from London to Bombay, runs a little south of Constantinople, a little north of Aleppo and Bagdad, and just south of Shiraz, and north of Ormus. This line indicates the shortest practi cable route to ludia, which does not materially deviate from it ; and which, crossing the Continent of Europe to Constan tinople, and proceeding by Aleppo, the Syrian Desert, and the Persian Gulf, gives of actual travelling somewhat less than 5,000 miles. " The river Euphrates coincides with part of this line. It gives, by its windings, a distance of about 300 miles more to be travelled than the route of the Syrian Desert. " If, instead of proceeding to Aleppo across the Continent of Europe and by Constantinople, we make the voyage up the Mediterranean to one of the Syrian ports nearest Aleppo ( Scanderoon or Latachia), we shall add 800 miles to the tra velled distance from London to Bombay. The Mediterranean and the Euphrates together, therefore, give 1,100 miles more than the direct route from London to Bombay by Constanti nople and the Syrian Desert, but the length of the route will still be 200 miles less than that of the Red Sea." To ascertain the real advantages of this route, as well as the nature of its difficulties, if any, the present expedition is on its way. The George Canning has on board (for trial on the Euphrates) two iron steamers, in pieces, divided into cases of convenient weight and size, altogether nearly 150 tons, w hi e L it is intended to convey across the country from the Orontes, principally on the backs of camels. The larger steamer, to called the Euphrates, whose engines are of 25 horse power, whefl put together, will measure 105 feet long by 19 feet on the bea.7 ll ; the smaller one, named the Tigris, will be 85 feet long by 16 on the beam, with engines of 10 horse power. The former wii: be armed with two, the latter with one nine pounder carronade traversing carriages, and each will have six one-pounder swivels, two tubes for Con greve rocks, and four wall pieces, with e proportion of mus kets and pistols. Although it is but common prudence that so interesting an enterprise should be thus prepared to defend itseb e in case of necessity, we have the most confident hope that Colonel Ches ney and his companions will encounter nothing to disturb their peaceful dispositions and pursuits; and we are encouraged In this hope by receiving, while we are writing, the Courrier cis Smyrna, of the 14th ultimo, which announces as follows, un der date of Constantinople, Bth of February :—" The Go vernment has just delivered to the British Ambassador the firmans which he had solicited for the navigation of the Euphrates. The facility with which these firmans have been granted, evidently proves that the Divan does not listen to the insinuations of foreigners; for it is well known that represen tations have been made with a view to disincline it to accede to this request. In the realization of so vast a project, the Porte only thinks of the means of civilization which it will afford to the population of the interior, and every privite con sideration has given way to this object." There is every rea son to believe that the Pacha of Egypt, the promoter of science and commerce, whose influence is HO less desirable, will act in a similar spirit. " A false Knave," once a supporter of Mr. Rooper, is endeavouring to raise a cry against that gentleman among the Dissenters generally, as was successfully done at Bedford among the Wesleyan Methodists, in the case of Lord John Russell ; but we trust the effort will not be equally successful in the present instauce.—Cnmbridge Press. SEA-WEED MANURE.—FIeets of boats, to the number of 60 or 70, are daily arriving at Galway with sea weed for manure from Cunnamara, Arran, and the county of Clare, which is purchased with avidity, and conveyed in carts all over the country in various directions, even to the distance of 40 or 50 miles into the interior. MR. WINGROVE COOKE'S MENIOIRS OF LORD BOLlNGBROKE.—Considering the station which Bolingbroke occupie.. • in our history, both as a statesman and a writer, it is surprising that no tolerable history of his life has yet ap peared. The only connected accounts of him in the language are the Memorials of his Life and Ministerial conduct, pu blished soon after his death, in the form of letters, and con taining, as its title imports, little more than a history of his conduct while Secretary of State ; another, yet more meagre and less known, to be found only among the politicalpiniphlets of the time, and consisting almost entirely of extracts from Bowyer's Political State, and the Parliamentary History; and a third, which, as it was written by . Goldsmith, is more gene rally read. This last is, however, but a sketch. It was in tended only for the edition of Bolingbioketa.Works; -to which it was originally prefixed. Mr. Wingrove Cooke% Life ottbis distinguished statesman, therefore, supplies a deficiengy, in English literature. It is written with much imp t rAi lk licy, and in a style of great neatness, if not of 'elegance; '
