The King attended by Sir Herbert Taylor, arrived in town at half-past one o'clock yesterday afternoon, from Windsor Castle. His Alajesty was received at St. James's by the Earl of Errol, Viscount and Viscountess Falkland, Lord J ames O'B ryen , Si r Willi am Gomm, Colonels Bowater and Wemvss. The King gave audiences during the afternoon to Baron d'Ompteda, the Hanoverian Minister ; Lord Glenelg, Viscount Melbourne, Viscount Palmerston, Lord Amelius Beauclerk, and Sir William Betham. The Princess Sophia visited his Majesty. The King left town at half-past six o'clock last evening, on his return to Windsor Castle. Viscount Melbourne arrived in town yesterday afternoon, from Penshanger, Herts. Mr. Mayers, agent for Barbadoes, Sir Ralph Darling, and Mr. H. Davis, had interviews yesterday with Lord Glenelg, at the Colonial-office. The Danish Charge de Affaires transacted business yes terday at the Foresgn-office. RAMSGATE-WEDNESDAY. His Majesty's steam packet, Lightning, arrived here yesterday about noon, having a file of marines on board, intended as a Guard of Honour to his Majesty the King of the Belgians, on his passage from Dover to Calais. This vessel also brought despatches for the Belgian Minister. His Majesty went on board for a short time on her arrival, and was received by the Guard with due 'honours, accom panied by a salute from the cannon. The Lightning started for Dover shortly afterwards. The Earl of Guilford and several families of distinction Paid their respects yesterday to our illustrious visitors. Their Majesties, the King and Queen of the Belgians, took their departure from the Albion Hotel this morning shortly before seven o'clock, with three carriages and suite, 20 their route to Dover, where arrangements were made for their embarkation in the Ferret steam packet for Calais. Although at an early hour of the morning, there was a numerous assemblage of persons near the Hotel to witness the departure of the Royal visitors, who loudly cheered their M • • . aJesties it was' remarked that the Queen seemed out of spirit s previous to her departure this morning. Her Majesty frequently expressed the gratification she felt at her reception on landing at Ramsgate, and we believe we are Justified in asserting that she left England with regret. Their R oya l Hi ghnesses t h e D uc h ess o f K ent an d t h e Pr incess Victo r i a accom p an ied th e i r Majesties to Dover, to bid adieu on their quitting these shores, and returned to Ra tusgate shortly a fter twelve o'clock at noon. The Ramsgate Packet, Captain Shambler, came in this afternoon from Boulogne, with between thirty and _forty Passengers and a carriage. WALMER-TUESDAY. His Gr ace th e D u k e o f W e lli ng t on was h onoure d yes terday with a v i s it f rom th e i r Majesties the King and Queen of Belgium, accompanied by their Royal High nesses the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria, and their :respective suites. The Royal visitors arrived at alr ner C astle soon after two o ' clock, under a royal sa lutefv, and the royal standard was immediately hoisted. The Lord Warden had invited many of the nobility and sentry of the neighbourhood to meet the illustrious party. We noticed the Earls of Delawarr, Guilford, Clarendon, Cadogan, and Rosslyn. The Lords Maryborough, Car -I.lnagiittlpoanu Mahon, Willi a m Fitzroy, Fitzroy Somerset and e, and their respective families.

The party partook of a splendid dejeuner a la fourchette, a nd the Royal visiters left Walmer Castle, for Ramsgate, under a second salute before five o'clock. The weather being very fine, there was a vast assem blage of spectators in the environs of the Castle, who greeted the arrival of the Royal party very enthusiastically, and, th e i r c h eers were very heart i ly repeate d w h en t h e Duche ss of Kent and the Princess Victoria presented themselves on the ramparts of the Castle. Their Majes ties and their Royal Highnesses expressed themselves much gratified w ith th e recep ti on th ey h a d ex p er i ence d. It i s l ong since we have had so gay a day at Walmer. DOVER-WEDNESDAY. Their Majesties the King and Queen of the Belgians 41 ived here this morning at nine o'clock, from Ramsgate, ac compani e d b y th e i r R oya l Hi g h nesses the Duchess of Kent and the Princess Victoria, and attended by M. J ohn de W eyer, t h e Belgian Minister, General Goblet, Sir 01, 0 Conroy, Sir R. Gardiner, Lady Flora Hastings, &c. They were re ce i ve d a t W o rthington's Ship Hotel by olonel Arnold, C om mandant of the Garrison, and S. M. uLatham, Esq., the Belgian Consul here. A Royal salute :as fired from the Western Heights on their arrival, and a ward o f H onour from the sth Re g iment attended, under G. command of Major Lord Charles Wellesley. His Gr ace th e D u k e o f W e lli ng t on ca me in from Walmer C astle to meet the Royal party, and remained in attendance Until their Majesties embarked on board his Majesty's ste am packet Ferret, Captain Hamilton. vise Mayor and Corporation waited on the Royal _,.ors, and presen t e d a dd resses o n the occasion of their 11 sit to Dover. They were most graciously received. After havi ng b rea kf as t e d a t the Ship Hotel, their Majes ties the King and Queen of Belgium, and their suite, em barked on board the Ferret, and, immediately proceeded with fair w i n d an d fi ne weat h er f or Calais, attended by his ba F Jesty's s t eam vesse l Li g ht n i ng . They must have had a autiful passage of about two hours and a quarter. The Piers were lined with spectators, who cheered their Majes g . very heartily as they quitted the port. Their Royal with the Duchess of Kent and Princess Victoria, Zith their suite, returned immediately to Ramsgate ; and 18 Excellency M. Vanide Weyer proceeded to London. PASIIIONABLE INTELLIGENCE.

Willesden made running to the distance, where the other two went up to him, and the race was so close until opposite the grand stand that it was difficult to say which had the best of it ; at this point, how ever, the Emmelina colt obtained a slight advantage, improved it in a few remaining strides, and won rather cleverly by about three parts of a length ; there was not more than a neck between the other two. Willisden carried 51b. for winning at Egham. Sweekstakes of 5 sovs. each, and 25 added ; three yrs, ist. ; four, Bst. 41b. • five, Bst. 111 b. ; six and aged, 9st. 21 b.

Day's Gab, aged First Heat—Gab made slow running till near the distance, where he dropped off; Leander and Deva immediately singled themselves out, and ran a pretty race home, the young one winning by about half a length. Second Heat--Hyderabad took the lead at a wretched pace, Airy and the Jewess filly waiting on him till within two dis tances of the chair, when they passed him, and ran neck and neck, at the top of their speed, to the finish ; Airy coming in by a head only. Leander and Deva did not go for the beat. Third Heat—Hyderabad again cut out the work till round the turn, where Leander and Deva headed him, and carried on the running to the stand. Deva dropped off here, and Airy and Jewess made an effort to get up, failed, and were beaten nalf a length. A good race for second. The winner claimed. The betting before the first heat was, 7to 4 agst Airy, 2 to 1 agst Jewess, and 4 to 1 agst Leander; before second heat, these three were at at about 2 to 1 each, Leander having the call ; after second heat, even on Airy, and 2to 1 each agst Leander and Jewess. The afternoon's sport was most excellent, and gave great satisfaction to a company which was respectable, but not by any means numerous. The grand stand was opened on exceed ingly moderate terms for refreshment and admission, and was as well attended as could be expected, from the smallness of the assemblage. The racing to-day promises good sport; it will consist of a match, the Surrey Stakes of 20 sovs. each (5 subs.), and a Sweepstakes of 5 sovs. each, with 25 added, for which six or seven horses will run. We are in the enjoyment of good harvest weather, and the farmers are .making the most of is. Everywhere the leading-cart is in use, and if the present whistling breezes continue for a few days longer, the crops will yet be housed in safety.—Ayr Observer. Mr. John Mackay Wilson, the author of " Tales of the Border," and for several years editor of the Berwick Advertiser, died at Berwick-upon-Tweed on Friday morn ing. About a fortnight before this unfortunate result, Mr. Wilson burst a blood vessel, and from that period gradually sunk under the effects of the accident, although his medical attendants and friends by no means imagined his end to be so near. Mr. Wilson's efforts in the cause of reform will be long remembered. We have heard that our townsman, Mr. Moir, advocate, Edinburgh, whose talents and acquirements pointed him out as the fittest person to fill a vacant chair in the University of Edinburgh, and whose appointment to that situation, recommended by the Town Council of the modern Athens, lately gave such general satisfaction, has declined to conform to the present law of the University, which requires that all the professors shall subscribe to the confession of faith before induction. Mr. Moir, we believe, is a member of the Episcopalian Church.—Aberdeen Adver. Nearly a hundred grocers and druggists in this town were favoured on Friday last, with printed circulars by post from Basle, in Switzerland, upon each of which 4s. 9d. postage was charged, and in a majority of cases paid. Some few " wide awake " to such practices refused to accept the proffered boon, and thus saved their pockets. Those which were opened all bore the signature of "B. Faesch," who offered to dispose of all sorts of goods, in any quantity, upon commission.—Hull Observer. THE BIBLE CENTENARY.—On Tuesday this me morable event was commemorated at the noble establish ment of the British and Foreign School Society, in the Borough-road, by a general assemblage of all the children and of the teachers in training. At ten o'clock, the spa cious boys' school-room was completely filled by the children in the schools, of both sexes, who were arranged in parallel lines. - Upwards of 900 children, and 43 teachers (who are at present preparing for schools at home and abroad), were present. A LITERARY DISCOVERY.—NearIy one hun dred autograph letters, written by the celebrated. Mrs. Montague, the able commentator on Shakspeare, and the friend of Johnson, Burke, Goldsmith, Garrick, Sheridan, and all the bright constellation of wits that flourished dur ing the last century, have been accidentally discovered. These letters abound with anecdotes and criticisms relating to persons, and books of the day. We hope they will be published ; and, as no adequate life of that celebrated lady has hitherto been given to the world, surely an authentic biography appended to the letters would be most acceptable. THE LAND OF THE FREE.—" Last Sunday even ing," says Brigg's Boston Bulletin, "Mr. May, the aboli tionist lecturer, attempted to hold forth at the chapel at Haverhill, Massashuchetts : the chapel was filled with hearers of both sexes, and the lecturer had just begun his discourse, when a volley of stones and lighted fire-crackers were showered through the windows into the pulpit and upon the congregation, who immediately dispersed in great alarm. A piece of ordnance was brought to the spot, pro bably to frighten the congregation." pave, is a great advantage. How much superior is this to the wheels of our travelling waggons, the fellies of which, being frustrums of cones, a good deal of power must neces sarily be lost in keeping them in a straight line, while the grinding motion thus occasioned must be very injurious to the roads ! These carts are also fitted with a cont►ivance for retarding the revolution of the wheels on descending hills, by pressure of the circumference, to serve instead of a drag.—From Captain Blakiston's new work—Twenty Years of Retirenzent. We are sorry to announce that it is feared a French boat was lost on Friday night or Saturday morning, on or near the island of Serk, and that all on board perished. It is our painful lot to add to the foregoing intelligence, the certain loss ok three lives this afternoon, by the capsi zing of a boat off Fermain's Bay.—Guernsey Star. HURRICANE.-011 Thursday last, a complete hur ricane swept with extraordinary fury over this island. It continued for several hours, and the immense quantity of fruit with which the gardens and orchards were covered the following morning, proclaimed some of the devastating effects of its rough progress. The Chamontel pear-trees, we regret to hear, have been prematurely stripped of almost all their delicious and valuable fruit, which will be attended with very severe loss to the proprietors, as the slightest bruise not only injures their quality, but destroys all efforts to preserve them from decay. The October peach-trees have also suffered extremely ; and branches, as well as fruit, have been torn off, and scattered around. We have not heard of any accident occasioned by the storm to the shipping in our harbour ; but many houses were dismantled of their tiles, chimney-pots, Lkc.—Jersey Argus. CHASE ACROSS THE ATLANTIC.—A small rakish looking schooner-rigged vessel arrived in the Mersey on Sa turday, which attracted great attention on her arrival, and has been the subject of much observation since. On in quiry it was found that she was a New York pilot boat, the John D'Aymer, and that she had come across the Atlantic in pursuit of a Mr. Bowen, of the firm of Bowen and Addoms, of that city, who sailed from the same port in the Caledonia on the Ist September. Though she made the passage without accident, which has rarely been done by so smal a vessel, her success in. pursuit of the Caledonia was not very great, as that packet arrived at Liverpool eight days before her pursuer, and as even the Roscoe, which sailed five days later than the John D' Apter, en tered the river by the same tide. The latter sailed from New York on the 3d ult.—Liverpool Paper. ANTIQUITY OF LEAD MINES.—In proof of the lead mines of Derbyshire having been wrought by the Ro mans, we have the authority of Dr. Millar, who states, " that in the year 1777 a pig of lead was found on Crom ford Moor, and the interpretation of the inscription is The sixth legion inscribes this in memory of the Emperor Adrian?" Several others have also been found at different periods ; one about the year 1790, weighing El stone, was found at Matlock, bearing the following inscription—" Ti. CL. TR. LUT. BR. ExARO.," which are supposed to be the abbreviations of " Tiberii Claudiani Triumviri Lutudari Britannorum Exargentaria." In the British Museum are several pigs of lead of great antiquity, one of which has also the mark denoting it to have been made in the reign of the same Emperor.—Mining Review. On Friday night last, about ten o'clock, the brig Neptune, of Milford, David Griffiths, of Newport, master, from Newport, laden with coals, was driven on shore, hav ing missed stays in Poolslaughter Bay, to the westward of St. Govin's Head, and was almost immediately knocked to pieces, and the mate washed out to sea. The master, his wife, and five men perished, being the whole on board, ex cept John Rees, of Newport, a boy, who went down in the cabin before the vessel struck to call the master's wife, and by the time he got on deck the vessel had struck, and the deck was completely cleared of the master and crew, whom he saw no more of. He immediately went up the rigging to the mast head, followed by the master's wife, and the vessel making a heel forward, he dropped himself on the rock, and called to his mistress to let go, and follow him, which she was afraid to do, when the following sea lurched the vessel outward, and he saw no more of her.—Cambrian. SLAPE, SLAPE.—During the recent visit of Prin cess Victoria to Wentworth House, much of the time of the Royal party was occupied in perambulating the beau tiful grounds adjoining that mansion. On one of those oc casions, her Royal Highness being in advance of the party, was respectfully cautioned by an under-gardener not to take a certain walk, as the late rain bad made the ground, in a particular situation in it, " slape." " Slape. slape," said the Princess. with the characteristic inquisitiveness of a descendant of George 111., " and pray what is slape ?" " Very slippy, Madam," replied the man. However, in spite of the warning thus given, like a genuine spri g of the House of Brunswick, .onward she' gaily proceeded. On reaching the " slape" ground, down she came. " There," shouted the Noble owner of the grounds, who, on per ceiving no injury was done, laughingly approached, " now your Royal Highness has received an explanation of the term ' slape,' both theoretically and practically." " Yes," rjoined the geod-humoured Princess, " I shall never forget the meaning of slape.' "—Sheffield Iris. HEART-RENDING EVENT.--(From the CO6OUrg, Upper Canada, Star.)—The most distressing accident we ever heard of is stated to have occurred near Colborne. on Saturday last, under the following circumstances :—Henry Tanner, a young Englishman, residing on a farm in that neighbourhood, with his mother and her younger children (who had but three weeks ago arrived from England to join him), going into the house from his labour, found the chil dren playing with a pair of percussion pistols. Flaying a cap in his pocket, he thought to amuse them by snapping it off ; when a friend cautioned him not to point the pistol towards the children, lest it might be loaded. On this he turned his hand behind him, not thinking of his mother being seated in that direction, and pulled the trigger. The pistol was loaded, and the ball passed directly through her chest. The poor woman, we are told, stood up for a mo ment after receiving the wound , and exclaiming, " Oh ! what have you done ?" fell dead at his feet. The poor fel low himself, as may be expected, has been in a state of frenzy ever since, and it is thought will never recover his senses again. The Scarborough Reform Association, a few days ago, unanimously resolved to present an address of thanks to Edward Stillingfleet Caley, Esq., M. P. for the North Riding, in acknowledgment of the very efficient services rendered by him to the cause of reform, and to the -Re formers of Scarborough in particular, during the last ses sion of Parliament. On Tuesday last the address, signed by all the members of the Association, was presented to the Hon. Member in the Old Globe Lodge Room, in the pre sence of a very large assemblage of people. This was the first public address ever presented to a Member of Parlia ment from the inhabitants of Scarborough.—Hull Observer. THE LORD BISHOP OP DERRY.—At a late visi tation of the Lord Primate in Derry, the Lord Bishop felt himself bound to bring before his Grace the following mat ter, in regard to which he had been charged with having acted oppressively and arbitrarily. It had come to his ears that the Rev. Mr. Collins, curate to the Rev. Mr. Irving, of Donoughmore, had appeared at the Lifford-road ses sions in a state of intoxication, and consequently he felt it his duty to suspend him until an investigation was held. Upon that investigation Mr. Collins was declared innocent, and reinstated. It appears to us that it would have also become the Primate to have told Mr. Irving that he did wrong in placing himself in an attitude of hostility towards his diocesan, in a matter in which no injustice was done, but in which a verbal offence simply was perpetrated against equity. Had the Primate acted thus, his conduct would have been above all suspicion. As it is, his enemies may attribute political bias.—Dublin Register. THE HALCYON.--The account of the kingfishers hatching their young upon the waves is countenanced by most naturalists. Sir T. Brown is so far from registering it among vulgar errors that he complies with the ancient tra dition, and says, at the time of their breeding, (which is about the winter solstice) the sea is calm, and the winds cease, till the young ones forsake their nest, which floated upon the sea, and by the roughness of winds might other wise be overwhelmed. Plutarch, in his parallel between the sagacity of land and water animals, affirms he bad fre quently seen these nests : in their shape, he says, they re semble a boat ; so artfully contrived as to admit the bird and exclude the waves. The whole was composed of the bones and fins of a fish, so strongly compacted that much strength was required to pluck them asunder. CELIBACY.—The following great, names are en listed in dislike of matrimony :—Newton, Locke, Boyle, Gibbon, Hume, Adam Smith, Harvey, Leibnitz, Bayle, Hobbes, Hampden, Sir F. Drake, Earl of Essex, Pitt, Mi chael Angelo, the three Caraccis, Sir Joshua Reynolds, Haydn, Handel,Wolsey, Pascal, Fenelon, De Henry, Pope, Akenside, Swift (not so), Goldsmith, Gray, Collins, Thom son, and Jeremy Bentham. Among the ancients we find nearly all their great philosophers :—Plato, Pythagoras, Epicurus, Bion, Anaxagoras, Heraclitus, Democritus, and Diogenes. The following distinguished men, though mar ried, were unhappy in that state :—Aristotle, Socrates, Pittacus, Periander, Euripides, and Aristophanes. Among the moderns :—Boccaccio, Dante, Milton, Steele, Addison, Dryden, Moliere, Racine, Sterne, Garrick, and Lord Bacon. FRENCH CARTS.—After staying a couple of days at Rouen, we proceeded by the same mode of conveyance to St. Germain : we went by the upper road, which is not very interesting. On the way we passed many carts drawn by horses, such as I have described. The construction of these carts struck me as being particularly well adapted to the roads en which they travel. The body is composed of a frame of great length, extending entirely over the shaft horse, and so constructed that, by means of a winch, the frame may be moved backwards and forwards, so as to be balanced on the two wheels which support it. These wheels are large, and stand perfectly upright, with very deep naves, so that they can preserve their perpendicular without difficulty ; and the linch-pin is so placed as to allow of considerable horizontal play on the axle, which, on a rough BALLOON ASCENT.—On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Green made his 210th ascent with his splendid balloon, from an, enclosed space on Uxbridge-moor. It will be in the recollection of our readers that a short time since M r . Green descended at Hillingdon (a mile from Uxbridge), after an ascent from Vauxhall-gardens, on which occasion he was waited on by a number -of the inhabitants of that town with a request that he would favour them by ascend ing from the neighbourhood of the gas-works on the moor, to which request Mr. Green assented. At an early hour in the morning the inflation of the balloon commenced from pipes laid down from the gasometer of Mr. Stacey (from which the town is lighted), and about half-past four o'clock, the process being completed,-the aerona►it stepped into the car, and in a few minutes afterwards the balloon soared majestically from terra firma, amid the plaudits of an im mense number of spectators. It moved in a north-easterly direction, and was soon lost sight of among the clouds. The town throughout the day appeared more crowded than it did during the fair last week. SHIP NEWS.—HEROTC CONDUCT OF THE CREW BELONGING TO THE " ANNE ELIZA YACHT."—On Wed nesday, at 9 o'clock, a.m., the Sarah Bright, belonging to this port, homeward bound from Newport with coals, Meany, master, struck on the bar at the, mouth of our har bour in a gale of wind, having previously suffered much from stress of weather in the channel. She filled the Moment after striking, which obliged the crew to take to the rig ging, in which condition they were observed from the pilot station at - the fort point. The pilot boat was immediately got under weigh ; but after fruitless attempts to assist the distressed Vessel, returned to its station, The master pilot and his crew then slipped the light barge belonging to the Anil Eliza yacht, from her moorings, and again made an ef fort to relieve the unhappy sufferers on the wreck, which they succeeded in effecting about one o'clock, having saved all hands on board, one of whom (a young lad named Fur long) was quite exhausted when taken off the Sarah, but is now in a fair way of recovery. We should not do justice to our feelings, or the cause of humanity, if we omitted to mention the intrepid and heroic self-devotion of the crew of the yacht before mentioned. On perceiving their barge shifted from her station, they thought at first she had slipped her moorings ; but when they discovered that the pilots had taken possession .of her, four of these brave fel lows in a full gale of wind, and without a helmsman, put to sea in a small jolly boat belonging to a vessel that lay hard by, in order to assist the pilots in rescuing their fellow-crea tures from destruction. Although the barge started full half an hour before the small boat, the latter reached the wreck just in time to see the sufferers snatched from their position, and placed safely in the barge, alongside of which they steadily kept until all were landed in safety. They then, in the name of the noble-minded owner of the yacht, Mr. George Morgan, incited the poor fellows just rescued from a watery grave, to participate in the hospitality of filch vessel, which was very acceptable at the moment. Indeed, these fine fellowsollould receive the " order of merit," for the spirit and intrepidity they manifested on this trying oc casion. We are happy to add, that the Sarah, which is now a complete wreck, the property of our respected townsman, Mr. Peter Furlong, has been insured to the full amount. — Waterford Independent. INTOXICATING POWER OF DIFFERENT Ll- QUORS.—Professor Beck, of New York, undertook a series of experiments upon wines, at the request of some Tempe rance Societies. The results agree generally with those of Brande, published 20 years ago. Alcohol or spirit existing in wine is not • combined with the vegetable infusion, but merely mixed with it. The union, however, grows more perfect as the wine gets older, and hepco ola wines are less THE SUN, LONDON, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1835. intoxicating than new. Supposing the portion of alcohol in wine to be the measure of its effects on the brain, the fol lowing table (the fractions rejected) is given by Mr. Beck as representing the intoxicating power of different liquors. Brandy about the common strength is taken as a standard : —Brandy, 100 ; strongest Madeira, 48 ; weakest Madeira, 36 ; Port (average), 42 ; Bucellas, 35 ; Sherry, 33 ; Torres Vedras, 38 ; Sauterne, 24 ; Claret (average), 21 ; Ameri can wine, 21 ; metheglin, 20 ; ale, 20 ; beer, 14 ; cider (average), 9. It will be observed that a bottle of the strongest Madeira is nearly equal to half a bottle of brandy ; and a bottle of average port rather exceeds two-fifths of a bottle of brandy. It has been calculated, by an engineer of eminence, that every four-horse coach deposits 121 b. of iron in every 100 miles of its journey, and that, consequently, assuming the number of such coaches passing daily between London and Birmingham alone to be 20, the weight of iron depo sited during every transit exceeds 2501 b. These results, it is stated, are not conjectural, but derived from investiga tions applied to the horse-shoe and the tire of the wheel — in the first instance, previously to use ; and, in the second, after the wear and tear of the road had rendered them use less ; and they have been found, it is added, as to every ton weight of iron so tried, nearly uniform. ENGLISH FARMING, &c.—With respect to the cultivation of the soil, comparing it either with France or Spain, England has decidedly the advantage, though I ques tion whether, in this respect, it is not behind both Holland and Belgium. The largeness of our farms gives more room for the application for capital and science to agriculture ; but I doubt much whether, after all, so much is made of the land as when divided into smaller farms ; while all must de plore the downfall of that most useful class, the yeomanry of England. If happiness was to be found in man, it was among that class. Now, generally speaking, the farmer is a great deal too much of the gentleman ; neither he nor his sons work, while his daugters—save the mark ! —would no more defile their hands with cheese ,or but ter, than they would venture into the sun without a parasol. .No farming servants are allowed to live in the house, as of old, but are driven to find a home elsewhere— early and improvident marriages and fearful pauperism fol low.—From Captain Blakiston's new work—" Twenty Years of Retirement." EXTRAORDINARY DISMISSAL OF A CORONER'S JURY.—Yesterday an inquest was held at the Waterman's Arms, Brentford, before Mr. Stirling, on view of the body of Jesse Jones, aged 63, who committed suicide in Brent ford cage, having been locked up there on a charge of vagrancy. The deceased had called at the house of a in Brentford to solicit charity, when he conducted himself in so outrageous and threatening a manner towards a ser vant girl, that she gave him in charge of a policeman, who conducted him to the cage. About half an hour after his confinement, a person entering the cage, found him sus pended by the neck, quite dead. After hearing the evi dence a very long discussion took place between the coroner and jury as to the state of deceased's mind at the time he committed the act ; at the expiration of six hours from the commencement of the inquest, during which much recrimi nation took place, ten of the jury were for insanity, and three for felo de se, and there being no prospect of their agreeing, the coroner dismissed the jury, desiring the con stable to summon another at two o'clock this day (Thursday). Wonders will never cease, and miracles are not vet out of fashion, especially at Chewton Mendip where (it is gravely affirmed by the Bath Herald " on authority!") 30 or 40 of the good people, all wearing heads on their shoulders, have been favoured with a wonderful manifesta tion. Thus the story runs :—On Sunday evening se'nnight, between 6 and 7 o'clock, there was seen at Chewton Men dip a most extraordinary and unaccountable phenomenon in the heavens. It was the appearance of a regiment of horse, with swords drawn, every trooper being distinctly visible, and the whole performing their evolutions as in the field of battle ; both horses and soldiers appearing perfectly black. The sight lasted a considerable time, and was wit nessed, with no small degree of consternation and dismay, by not less than 30 or 40 individuals ; ono of whom, named Tyte, gamekeeper to Anthony Blagrave, Esq., of Harp tree-court, instantly descended the hill into Chewton, under considerable agitation of feelings. A woman also of the village was so terrified by the spectacle, that she has not recovered from the fright to the present moment, and is really seriously indisposed. There are many recorded examples of similar sights, from Josephus down to the year 1745, when, previous to the great rebellion, celestial pheno mena of the same character was said to have been seen in Scotland by wondering multitudes of all classes of people. ACCIDENT TO THE EARL OF HOWTH.—We regret exceedingly to have to state, that a most unfortunate accident occurred on Saturday to the Earl of Howth. His Lordship's horse, in turning the corner of the field at the back of the Windmill-hill, got locked and fell upon his head, the noble Earl being thrown under him. The result was, that his Lordship had his collar-bone fractured, one of his ribs slightly dislocated, and his arm and wrist bruised. Surgeon Darcy happened to be near the spot, and pro ceeded to render his professional assistance to the Noble Earl, who thought himself more seriously hurt, but he was assured that it was not of consequence. A carriage was procured, and his Lordship brought to the castle, where he remained under the care of Surgeon Stokes (who came up subsequently) until the. arrival of the Surgeon-General, he having been sent for express to Dublin. There was but one feeling of the deepest regret amongst ail when the accident became known, and many anxious inquiries were made at the Castle during the evening by those who attended the races, to ascertain the extent of the injury his Lordship had suffered.—Saunders's News Letter. [We feel particular pleasure in stating that the latest inquiries we were enabled to make respecting this respected nobleman were most sa tisfactory. The fracture was set, and the other injuries re lieved by the Surgeon-General on Saturday evening, since when the Noble patient has been hourly improving.—Dub lin Evening Mail. TRACES OF ANCIENT CIVILIZATION AMONG THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS.—Amongst the Caroline Is lands, only six weeks' sail from Sydney, is Aseencio (about 11 degrees north latitude), discovered very lately by his Majesty's sloop of war Raven. Mr. Ong, now a resident of this colony, some years back remained there for several months, and we have our information from a friend, who conversed frequently with Mr. Ong on the subject. 13n the above-named island of Ascencio, the language of the inhabitants is more harmonious than in the other islands of the South Seas, a great many words ending with vowels. There are at the north-east end of the island, at a place called Tamen, ruins of a town, now only accessible by boats, the waves reaching to the steps of the houses. The walls are overgrown with bread, cocoa-nut, and other ancient. trees, and the ruins occupy a space of two miles and a half. The stones of these edifices are laid bed and quoin, exhi biting irrefutable traces of art far beyond the means of the present savage inhabitants. Some of these hewn stones are 20 feet in length, by 3 to .5 each way, and no remains of cement appear. The walls have door and window places. The ruins are built of stone, which is different from that occurring in the immediate neighbourhood. There is a mountain in the island, the rocks of which are covered with figures, and there are far greater ruins eight miles in the interior. The habits of these islanders exhibit traces of a different social system ; the women do not work ex clusively, as is the custom in the other islands. After the meals wafer is carried about by servants for washing hands, &c. Asked about the origin of these-buildings, the inha bitants say, that they were built by men who are now above (pointing to the Heavens.)—Hobart To . wn Courier. An atrocious crime has been committed at St. Marie, near Beaune, in the Cote d'Or. Some days ego the members, the head, and part of the body of a female were found in the river, but the face was so much disfigured, that although almost every inhabitant of the village went to view the remains, no one could recognize the person of the deceased. Strong circumstances fix this horrible murder on the rector of the commune, and point out the victim to have been a milliner from Lyons, the initial of whose name is B. On the day of the discovery, one of the villagers met the rector, and, informing him of it, asked him to go and see a body which had just been taken out of the water, without stating its condition ; but the priest became greatly agitated, and replied that he could not bear to look upon a spectacle so hideous. Though he was on his way to a fune ral at an adjoining village, he immediately returned to his house, took his cane, and instead of going where he in tended, disappeared, and was not heard of for three weeks. His servant, on being interrogated as to his absence, said that he was gone to see his relations at Villcfranche, near Lyons, and would be back in a few days. His long-con tinued absence led to suspicion.; Search was made, and in the rectory was found the name and address of the sup posed victim, and her clothes, marked with the letter B. These suspicious circumstances were strengthened by the finding of a pair of pantaloons stained with blood. The inhabitants of the village state that a lady, calling herself the niece or cousin of the rector, and known to be a milliner at Lyons, where he was for a long time vicar, had come to pass eight or ten days with him ; her person was known to them, as she constantly accompanied their pastor wherever he went, but it was impossible to identify the remains found. She was seen with him at the latter end of August, but then disappeared. The rector's servant could give no ac count of the visitor's departure from St. Marie, as she her self happened to be absent for several day jk . at the time when th e cr i me i s su pposed to have becgperpetrated. Every portion of the murdered woman was sound, except the abdomen, and this leads to an apprehension that this was either burnt, or more carefully concealed, to prevent the discovery of having been pregnant. A warrant was issued for the arrest of the priest, and we learn by the Courrier de Lyons that he was taken in that town just as he was getting into the diligence for Geneva. FRENCH PAPERS. (From the Journal des Debuts of Tuesday. We lave received the Barcelona journals, of the 26th and the 27th of September. The greatest calm prevailed in that city since the reception of the first Acts of the new Ministry. General Mina's appointment had produced an excellent effect. The Vapor publishes a detailed statement of tl.e receipts and expenses made by that General during his command in 1822, in reply to certain rumours of malver sation, propagated against him. Several engagements with the Carlists had taken place in the north of the province. Their strongest division, 4,000 in number, had been beaten, on the 24th, near 010, by General Ayerbe. General Pastor was, on the 17th, at Seu d'Urgel, and had compelled the Navarrese column to retire into Arragon. Notwithstanding those successes it becomes evident that the Carlist forces in Catalonia have for some time past much increased, and that the measures adopted by the Junta to reduce them, its proclamations and levies of volun teers, have had no efficient result. .~~--- ROYAL DECREE. " Convinced that one of the most essential obligations of the Throne, and, at the same time, the one most agreeable to my heart, dictates the adoption of seasonable measures for calming discontent and consolidating peace and union, I have approved the system of Government contained in the exposition which you submitted to me on the 14th of this month, as Finance Secretary—a system which virtually imposes a complete oblivion of the political differences which have afflicted the Monarchy ; but, considering that the election and installation of the provincial deputations created by my Royal decree of the 21st of this month must take place without delay, and that, consequently, doubts may arise as to the lawful aptness of the individuals who have played a part in those political differences, I have deemed proper to make a more explicit declaration of my will, which has no other object than that of covering with a veil, which nobody may raise, events so unfortunate, in order that those events may prevent nobody from being a member of those de putations, and aspiring to the other functions of the State. I expect from the loyalty and generosity of Spaniards that this spontaneous, free, and sincere manifestation of my inten tions will unite them as one and the same family round the throne of my august daughter, and impart to them, with a spirit of concord, the strength necessary for destroy ing the partizans of usurpation. I therefore order the following : " Art. 1. All the provisions of the Royal Decree of the 3d instant are abrogated, and the prosecutions commenced in pursuance of that decree, or that may have been com menced before the reception of the present decree in the provinces, shall be suspended, and, under no pretext, be renewed. " Art 2. I grant a general Ad complete oblivion of all occurrences which have arisen since the first moment of the political differences ; they shall be considered as not hav ing taken place, and shall, therefore, produce no effect, with regard to the persons that may have participated in them. " You will understand this. (Signed) " Prado, Sept. 25, 1835." A telegraphic despatch received yesterday announces as follows :—" The Urbanos of Madrid are about to resume their service. The army of the north will receive a rein forcement of 10,000 men. General Palafox being indis posed, General Selano has taken during his absence the second command in Arragon, where he has been received. " THE QUEEN. t is said that Don Carlos is in the environs of Estella. We have received by express the Madrid Gazette of the 28th ult., and a private letter from that capital of the same date, which show that the list of members given by the Gazette de France, as forming the Spanish Cabinet, is wholly erroneous. The Gazette has a Royal decree, by which M. Mendizabal, Minister of the Finances, is ap pointed President of the Council, General Alava not having accepted that post. By two other decrees the Count d'Almodovar is nominated Minister of War, and Don Joa quim Caneja Minister of Justice. (From Galignani's Messenger of Tuesday.) Extract of a letter from Madrid, dated the 28th ult. : It was only for two days that M. Mendizabal was se riously indisposed. He has been laboriously employed in maintaining the peace of the capital, and in endeavoring to restore that of the providces. He yesterday called a meet ing of the merchants of Madrid, at which he proposed their opening a subscription for raising a corps of 3,000 men, for the purpose of offering a vigorous resistance to the Count de las Navas, in case lie should threaten the capital, and, in case Madrid should be tranquil, to march against the Car lists in Navarre. The proposal was received with approba tion, and the Minister set the example by .placing his name at the head of the list for 50,000 reals (12,500 f.) The merchants, however, had not waited for this incident to sig. nify their approbation of the investment of M. Mendizabal with the power to form a Cabinet, but had already presented an address to the Queen to that effect—a step which, it is 4thd, the Urban Militia are preparing to follow. The revocation of M. de Toreno's decree against the Juntas has produced, it appears, a favourable effect. The Junta of Valencia has been dissolved, and that of Galicia, over which Murillo presided, has not only separated voluntarily, but even previously declared its approbation of the present Government. Yesterday M. Mendizabal re ceived a despatch from Barcelona with the important intel ligence that the Junta of that town was well disposed to wards his Ministry, and was ready to dissolve itself, if the Government thought it desirable. In order to stimulate this favourable re-action, the Ministry has sent couriers into the provinces which still remain doubtful, with the news of the submission of the other juntas. M. Mendizabal hopes to be able to overcome all obstacles by shortly issuing the decree for the convocation of the Cortes, and the ordinance establishing the unrestricted liberty of the press. The greatest source of uneasiness to the Government, at this moment, is the state of Andalusia, though it hopes in the end to triumph over the efforts of the Count de las Navas. As yet, however, the negotiators sent to this noble demagogue have failed. He put Quiroga and Chacon under arrest. Another, M. Aguilar, who was his intimate friend, after several animated con ferences with him, has returned to Madrid with his ultimatum, which is in the following terms :-1. A constituent assembly of the Cortes to be convoked ac cording to the measures taken at Seville, or by a decree of convocation framed without making mention of the consti tution of 1812. 2. The formation of a homogeneous Mi nistry without any elements which may excite repugnance. 3. The exclusion from the Ministry of all men whose an tecedent conduct has been of a nature to excite distrust. 4. An approval of all that the juntas have done, and a continuance of them as juntas of armament and defence until the extermination of the rebels. 5. The conservation of the military force in compact corps, which shall continue to occupy the positions of Despina Perros, and be engaged in the instruction and drilling of the forces forming in An- dalusia, and in clearing the country of the rebels ;Thone of them being allowed to separate from the rest until the pub lication of the fundamental compact, and extending their _ _ operations against the rebels in La Mancha and in the mountains of Toledo. 6. The abolition of the decree which proscribed the whole nation through its provincial juntas. 7. The detention of M. de Toreno till he has 4 rendered to the country an account of his conduct ; it having been ascertained that passports had been granted to him, ,and that a ship of war was placed at his dis posal, in order that he might pass over into Italy. 68 hours are granted for sending an answer. These proposals have met with the rejection they merited. Last night a new Commissioner was sent off to the head quarters of the Count at Val de Penas, 333 : leagues from Madrid. The Count has decidedly unfurled the standard of revolution. He has written to his friends in the ca pital, that he is determined to enforce the acknowledg ment of the rights or the seven provinces, which invested him with their confidence—namely, the six. which compose Andalusia, and that of La Mancha. Relying upon the assent of these provinces, the command of which has been usurped by, rather than granted to, him, the Count has no other resource Allan to throw himself into the arms of the most violent demagogues. This, in fact, he has already done. Clothed in a smockfrock, and wearing a red cap, the Noble Count has assumed the motto, Everything by the people and for the people Using or rather abusing the authority he has assumed, he signs and delivers pass ports in his own name, and levies contributions from the towns. Toledo alone has received orders to deliver in 48 hours 12,000 rations for his soldiers. It is certain, should he march on Madrid and reach its walls, an insurrection would immediately break out in the city, horrible disorders would ensue , and acts of vengeance would be committed ; the capital would be devastated by hordes of savages, who, greedy of plunder, would sacrifice private property to satis fy their cupidity. It is said that already there are sub scribed many names upon the list of those who are doomed to destruction. There is, however, a rumour that the Central Junta of Andalusia have sent strong remonstrances to the Count againgt his proceedings, as being taken without the authority of the Provincial Juntas, and enjoining him to return to Cordova. Letters from Cadiz state, that Eng lish merchandise, to the value of 4,000,000, has been landed from Gibraltar, without paying duties, all the officers of the customs having been sent to Madrid, and left the custom house completely shut up. This is a most important cir cumstance. The Government should have recollected that the insurrection in Andalusia was the more serious, as it partly was created by the injury done to the commerce and industry of that country by the policy of the Government." The Memorial des Pyrenees, of Pau, gives the following from the banks of the Bidassoa :—" The Carlists appear determi d to drive the French to extremities. It is al ready ow ithat two pieces of artillery were planted on the hei of the Lazaretto at Behobia, to check the Spanish insurgents whenever they directed their fire s as to reach the French territory ; but it would seem that it is the intention of our commandant to go fur ther than this, and come to a combat, on equal terms ; for yesterday he sent a cannon and two ammu nition waggons to [run, and we shall no doubt soon find out the use he intends to make of them. Don Carlos is co ncentrating his forces in the environs oflboa, and has ordered new levies within the insurgent provinces. A Spa nish officer of superior rank, accompanied by two guides, has been detected, and arrested by the officers of the Cus toms, just as he was on the point of entering Spain. It is said that he was the bearer of papers which throw a strong light on the elements which have hitherto infused so much energy into the insurrection of Navarre. These documents have been sent to Bayonne." Letters from Berlin announce that " the 10,000 Rus sian Guards have quitted Kalisch ; the Asiatic cavalry have also received orders to return into the interior of the Russian empire. According to the desire of the Kin.. of Prussia, the route of the Russian Guards will be so marked out as for theni to touch as small a portion of the Prussian territory as possible, in order to avoid a renewal of the com plaints which the presence of the foreign corps had excited in the northern provinces. They will traverse Poland as far as Thorn, from which place they will proceed to Dantzic by Marienwerder. In the conflict between the soldiers of the Russian infantry and the Asiatic cavalry, the former bad thirty men put hors de combat. During the manoeuvres and the assault directed against the town of Kalisch, both armies were alike animated, and without the most energetic counteracting measures a serious conflict would have taken place. The environs of Kalisch have been greatly damaged, and the Government refuses to indemnify the landed proprietors. The wives of several illustrious persons petition the Emperor to revoke the confiscations and sentences of death pronounced against their husbands, but without success. Poland may congra tulate itself on the results of the intercession of the Empe ror Ferdinand, for, if a large body of Russian troops had remained in Poland, prosecutions would have been still more numerous. The Poles are without exception objects of suspicion to the Court of St. Petersburgh. The re monstrances of the Emperor 'Ferdinand were merely di rected against the establishment of a permanent camp in Kalisch, and a considerable army at Warsaw. The troops which some years ago came from Russia will remain in spite of the Polish constitution, which admits no Russian sol diers into that country. The wishes manifested by several of the Powers which signed the treaty of Vienna, the de mands of the French Chambers and of the English Par liament, have not been listened to, but Poland is not without hope. There is no hut in Poland where the names of Fergusson and Bignon are not mentioned with gratitude." A letter from Munich of the 30th ult. says :—" The Emperor Ferdinand of Austria, previously to leaving Ko nia•swirth for Topaz, wrote an autograph letter to King Louis of Bavaria, in order to tranquillize him on the sub ject of the resolutions which might be adopted at the meet ing of the three Sovereigns. Austria has no intention of usurping an attitude contrary to her engagements and the interests of her Germanic neighbours, and would oppose any such project on the part of other Sovereigns. The Cabinet of Vienna will be faithful to the strict performance of trea ties, and to the maintenance of the rights and sovereignty of the ruling Princes. It will keep inviolate the institutions established in different countries, and hopes that in these re spects it will have the support pf the Princes and of public opinion. Finally, the Emperor is convinced that there will be no change in general politics and in foreign questions, and hopes that Germany will daily increase her prosperity. A copy of this autograph letter will be communicated, by desire of the Emperor, to the different German Princes." Letters from Dresden announce that the King of Saxony has returned to his capital, well pleased with his excursion to _ _ . - _ oplitz, where he " hal an interview with his relative, the Emperor of Austria, before the arrival of the King of Prus sia and the Emperor Nicholas. At this interview the Em peror Ferdinand expressed his intentions in these words : Charles and Metternich will have peace e which words sum up the policy of Austria at the present moment. The two most renowned men of the empire, one by his military talents, the other as a consummate diplomatist, who hither to rarely agreed in political opinions, now unite their efforts to divert Austria from any perilous enterprise, and they are seconded by the Emperor himself. Under these circum stances the conference of Toplitz must lead to this dilemma —either Russia or Prussia will fall in with the pacific views of Austria, or the latter will ally itself with other Govern ments, whose energetic attitude will be sufficient to keep down the ambition of Russia, if that country should attempt to aggrandize itself either towards the East or towards Europe." The Hamburg, i Correspondent announces that the Em peror of Russia, before the departure of the Prussian regi ments from Kalisch, conferred upon a great number of their officers insignia of several of his orders. According to the Prussian State Gazette of the 30th ult. the King of Prussia arrived on the 21st at Toplitz. The Hanover Gazette has the following from Saltzburgh of the 19th ult. :—" The public journals have announced that the Duchess de Berri had received numerous visits from the nobility during her residence at Ischl ; that may be the case, but eye-witnesses affirm that the members of the Royal families have not followed this example. The Grand Duchess Helena is spoken of as one who has more sense of dignity than for female heroism.- She has conse quently displayed great reserve in the presence of the Prin cess. All the distinguished visitors of Ischl are aware that the Grand Duchess, who is a model of virtue and grace, having met the Duchess de Berri at the ball of Casino, exchanged a few words with her, and then quitted the ball room, er having gracefully saluted all the ladias. Many versions are in circulation concerning the abrupt departure of the Duchess de Berri from Isclil. We do not report them, but certain it is that she quitted with reluctance ad mortification." According to letters from Palma of the 29th ult.. th* cholera on board the Nestor, Trident, and Victoirs, was rapidly disappearing. FRENCH FUNDS. —Psula. OCTOBER 6.
