He appeared in two pieces—Ler Extremes se touchent , and Le Mousquetaire Gris. The first is a trifle light as air, but rendered amusing by the acting of Lafont and Madame Paul Ernest (a delightful actress, who made her fir s t a pp earance b e f ore a n English audience last night, and at once established herself as a favourite) as a brace of lovers who quarrel as lovers are wont to quarrel, are jealous as lovers are wont to be jealous, and became reconciled as lovers are wont to be come reconciled on such occasions. In the Mousquetaire Gris M. Lafont was full of bustling humour. His drunken scene was admirable. Mademoiselle Baptiste looked the pretty Louise a merveille. Both M.

We have this week to announce an entire change in the Proprie torship of the " Hull Advertiser." Mr. William Bettison, the last of a spirited Reform Proprietary, dating from the era of the Re forsn Bill, ceased to have any pecuniary interest in this Jonrnel Irma the first day of March instant. This event, usually:so important in the social and political life of a community, involves in the future conducting of this Paper no change of persons ; no modification of political principles ; no fresh combination of party associations. The late Proprietor had nothing more*at heart than that the " Hull Advertiser " should always be found the faithful and fearless advo cate of liberal opinions; and the hands to which he has entrusted it have never penned a sentence which a Fax, a Gre3 , a Romilly, a . Mackintosh, or a Cobden could have objected to as favouring mono- Poly in trade, inhumanity in law, bigotry in religion, or corruption 112 Parliament. He who was the Editor for the last six years, and Who, during the whole of that time, was guided in his treatment of all public questions by the free and undisputed exercise of his own Unfettered judgment, is still Editor, and one of the two Proprietors to whom the Paper now belongs. The other has for some years conducted the pecuniary business of the office, and will continue to Confine himself to what the Chancellor of the Exchequer would call " the Ways and Means " department—an important one in a news paper office as well as in a Royal Cabinet. To the general reader, therefore, there will be little at first betides the imprint to remind him of a change which has been named on the late Proprietor by the necessity of extending his regular trade as a brewer. The most satisfactory way of placing this before the public will be to quote the following letter from Mr. Betti-on to the Editor : " 18, Charlotte-street, Hull, March 21, 1848. "My Dear Sir,—lt will gratify a very natural degree of p ublic curiosity, and relieve me from more personal questionings than I have time to attend to, if you can make it convenient to announce this week that I am no longer proprietor of the ' Hull Advertiser,' and that the sole proprietorship of the paper is now vested in your self and Mr. Marling. " When, many years ago, I became one of several proprietors, and in 1844, the sole proprietor of the ' Hull Advertiser,' I made up my mind never to part with it, unless to some one as strongly devo ted to the support of true Reform principles as I was myself. The management of newspaper property was far from being as congenial to my habits as the business of a brewer, which I inherited from my father; but I looked upon the ` Advertiser' as a public trust, which I felt bound only to deliver to one capable of carrying out the ob ;ode for which it was first purchased for the Reform party. For six Years you have been its uncontrolled, irresponsible Editor. By the fearless and able exercise of your talents and your industry, you have obtained for it a larger circulation, and a more commanding influence than it ever possessed before ; and such is my unbounded confidence in your personal and political integrity, that I believe that I cannot perform a greater service to the Liberal cause than by committing the chief organ of the Liberal party in the East Riding of Yorkshire permanently to your management and direction. You have made the paper a good property, and one with which I should be very loath now to part, but that there is a necessity for very [neatly extending my brewing business. My son Samuel, as you know, has become my partner in that business, and it requiras that all our energies should be employed in carrying it on with spirit. This is an age of competition, in which to do one thing well is enough for one establishment. " In Mr. Marling you have a trustworthy colleague, and a safe man of business. During his management of the affairs of the Ad vertiser office he possessed, and proved himself deserving of pos eessiag, all my confidence. You know his worth, and how to appre ciate it at its true value. " And now, my dear Sir, in severing my connexion as proprietor With the' Hull Advertiser.' it is my earnest wish, as it is that of all my family, that the friendly and affectionate intercourse which has subsisted between us, without an hour's.interruption, since the ay of your first appearance i n H u ll, may b e con ti nue d on th e o ld F ooting. You can hardly represent yourself as less free from all pod the old. Beal influence a , on my part, than you ever were . L e t us th e n retain intimcy so gratifying to us all. Yourself and Mr. Marling have the sincerest wishes of sty heart for your joint success in an undertaking, in which it would be hard to find two men more compe tent for their respective parts. Indeed, I know that your labours Must be crowned with success, if merit meets with its due reward. "I am, my dear Sir, " Yours very affectionately, " WILLIAM BETTISON. E. F. Collins, Esq." son T at letter is all that w e could wish—all that the public can rea- Y desire in the way of explanadon of a change, which will not either be felt in the political tone or in the general management of the " Hull Advertiser." The new Proprietors have few professions to make, and are conte n t t o rest their success on the extent and fide lity of their endeavours to deserve it. One promise the editor may Make to the p eople. The Hull Advertiser" will never, under his management, be the t oo l o f any party, or the organ o f any c li qu e or to political or religious. It will n ever b e found supporting corrupt and ambiti ous men at the expense of great and en li g ht ene d principles ; nor att ac ki ng t h e foundations of law and or d er t o court an ~ ep he meral popularity. Not that we w i s h the shadow of doubt to felt as to our political principles. We are Liberals in the most general interpretation of that term. Wa are the advocates of Free rale—Church Reform—Law Reform—the supporters of an ex- Lawa Electoral Franchise--of the abolition of the Navigation es — the University Tests—the mockery of Offi c i a l Swearing— tal Punishments—and for the substitution of Peace for Military principles in the 'government and control of all the nations of the earth. v v _ • lookre strongly in favour of a system of National Educe ton. and a open the schoolmaster as the great regenerator of our Social system. It will be our peculiar study and our greatest pleasure to co-ope ratetie with every m ovement having f or it s o bj ec t the improvement of social and Physical condition of the people among whom this .12t.trnal more esp ec i ally circulates. Loca l re f orms are , a ft er a ll, the things which should chiefly occupy the constant attention of a pro :metal press. And here we hope to be well supported by our con temporaries of every shape of opinion. We have no jealousy of rival n ewspapers, arid do not propose to ourselves the employment of any Means to diminish their profits, or curtail their circulation. We can speak of the success which has attended our own labours without directly or indirectly implying a want of success on the part of our co ntemporaries. The great mission of a free press is not fulfilled by L ae traduction of rival journals, or the vituperative railings and a sunter-railings of the organs of adverse opinions. The press, as a treat intellectual institution. owes a respect to itself inconsistent With those coarse bickerings which are never popular but in a semi barbarous state of society. We trust to be pardoned Itsr observing that henceforth all our in terests are mixed up with the prosperity of Hull. In assuming the proprietorship of this paper, we have aimed as much at making our residence in Yorkshire a permanent one, as in obtaining an organ wherewith to effect some social and political good in our generation. We are happy to say that it would require no increase of our present circulation to make the engagement upon which in e have entered a Profitable one. To stand still would be to obtain a remunerative Share of success. But, with the blessing of God, we are not destined to enter upon what, in this ever-advancing world, should be con sidered as a retrograde course. We have arrangements in contem plation, which, when completed, will place us In an advanced posi tion as regards our most enterprising provincial contemporaries. Wherever lurking genius is to be found, it will be our peculiar care to draw it forth, and to enrich the world with its hidden treasures. There is a great abundance of unemployed intellectual Wealth in Hull, for which we hope some day to find profitable in vestment. There is also a vast amount of moral and social evil to be remedied, not entirely beyond the reach of newspaper influence. In the way of sanitary reform there is more to be done than would suffice to constitute the twelve labours of Hercules. With these views, and with an earnest determination to do all in our power to redress the real grievances of every class and party of our fellow townsmen, we enter upon the more extended sphere of our public duties. We ask from all extens ve support, and generous sympathy sud encouragement. The " Hull Advertiser" is most extensively circulated in Hull, the East Riding of Yorkshire, and North Lincolnshire, and is therefore an excellent Advertising Medium for professional gentlemen, agri culturists, auctioneers, commercial agents, Re.

Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstoae, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having corn pletely restored the kai r on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than lever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to: the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an 11 e. bottle if tkey were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume iti far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact .-3, Swan-street, Borough." In eases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, afe w drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, mane it strong, and Dfnvent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A law dreps on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the bah brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the snout aromatic herbs sad flowers with confidence ; its refreshing (odour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pear tea or twelve drops en the crown of the head; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces hair ou children's heads in a few appplicatlons. If and on infants' 'wads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See Pamphlet of testimonials.

It may with truth be averred, that ROWLANDS' MAC AS SAR OIL has enjoyed an extent of patronage and public favour dur ing the last half century which is totally unexampled in the annals of felicitous discovery. The extraordinary efficacy, and happy amal gamation of its purely exotic materials, have rendered it justly re nowned throughout the world for its remarkable virtues in nourish ing, preserving , and beautifying the Human Hair. It insinuates its balsamic properties into the pores of the head, nourishes the Hair in Its embryo state, cleanses it from scurf and dandruff, accelerates its growth, sustains it in maturity, and continues its possessioi of healthy vigour, silky softness, and luxurious redundancy to the latest period of human life. In the growth of Whiskers, Eyebrows, and Mustache's, it is also unfailing in its stimulative operations. For Chil dren it is especially recommended, as forming the basis of a Beau tiful Head of Hair, and rendering the use of the fine comb unne cessary. Its Invaluable properties have obtained the especial Patronage of her Majesty the Queen, the Court, and the whole of the Royal Family of Great Britain, and of every Court of the civilised world ; and the high esteem in which it is universally held, together with numerous Testimonials constantly received of its eflioacy, afford the best and surest proofs of its merits.

M One half the wend are desolately single, and the other supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a sense el right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un tlomprosing hurry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour end justice demand that health should form an item in the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

BY SAMUEL LA'MERT, M.D., 37, BEDFORD-SQUARE, LONDON. Doctor of Medicine. Matriculated Member of the University of Edin burgh, Licentiate of Apothecaries Hall, London, Honorary Member of the London Hospital Medical Society, &c. _ _ Marriage requires the fulfilment of several conditions, hi order inhew m b many raised, and I that it may be really the cause of mutual happi ness. Could the y could veil,rs'htircehe source covers i t n he e o v r e i ry gin in is s f teece d domesticiselosed wretchedness, nointments. Excesses ar e a l wa y s i n j u rious ; the g ift, w hi c h when ithe traced to physical di squa lifi ca ti on s and thei r a tt en d ant disap used in moderation is fraught with advantage, becomes, when abused .the nrolific source of mischief and of greater or less injury to the constitutional and vital powers. The particular excesses, on ,he nature and consequence of which this Treatise professes to dilate, are productive of greater severity of misery to the kuinan frame, titan any other to which it is subject. This work contains an accurate and complete account of the Anatomy and Physiology of the ReproducHvo Organs, and of their relative conditions in health and disease. It deservedly requires the closest attention and study, for what subject can be of more importance than the preservation of the health, and of the physical. capabilities of which every man should be possessed. it unfortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indulgence and vicious habits, whether acquired fit early life or from, the follies of advanced age, while suffering front their invariable consequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap plying to a qualVied physician for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, lint erroneously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking or assistance where alone it can be procured. In acting thus, he forgets that accurate discrimination. n ascertaining the causes of iisease, sympathy with the sufferer, and, above all, secrecy, inva riably characterisa the intelligent and practical physician, and to the medical man who, can show by his possession of the requisite legal malifications that he is entitled to esteem and respect in his profes sional pursuits, the utmost confidence should be extended. Dr. LA'MERT has. obtained the highest medical honours, as his diplomas eertify, and the great extent of his practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experienee, which has reference almost solely to the '. l- catnient of these diseases.

The anniversary festival of this institution was held last evening, at the London Tavern. The chair was taken by James Cape!, Esq., and amongst the gentle men present were Mr. Kemble, Mr. Pownall, Mr. Hoare, Mr. Drummond Majoribanks, Mr. Edward Majoribanks, the Rev. Dr. Hesser, the Rev. J. H. Hall, the Rev. C. Mackenzie, &c. The enthusiasm of the company on the drinking of the Queen's health was very marked. Whatever may be the opinion of Republicans and rapid Revolutionists, it is evident that doctrines subversive of the peace and order of the country find no sympathy amongst the middle and upper classes of society in England. The same feeling was manifested during the speech of Mr. KEMBLE, who drew a parallel between the character of the English and French populace, at the same time contrasting the stability of the former with the insta bility and misapplied enthusiasm of the latter. Daring the whole of this gentleman's speech there were long and hearty cheers. The prospects of the charity, as it would appear from the statement of the Chairman, are not at the present moment, of the most brilliant kind. The expenditure exceeds the annual revenue, and the public are solicited to lend their assistance to the maintenance of a charity which has peculiar claims upon their sympathy and sup port. The institution commenced its labours with four children only as the recipients of its bounty, and now the number has increased to 370. The permanent income is only 1,500/. per annum, while the annual expenditure is between 7,0001. and 8,000/. The value of the institu tion is seen in its universality, for it is not confined to the inhabitants of London alone, but it is open to all the world. There are at the present within the walls of the institution, Africans, Americans, and Irish. The institution has further laims upon the charity of the public, for its labours do not cease upon the removal of the pupil, but they are exerted for six years after be leaves the asylum ; a supervision which has been found to be productive of the most beneficial results. Other speeches in favour of the asylum were made by the gentlemen present, all tending to demonstrate its utility, both socially and morally, to the children who are entrusted to its care as well as to the well-being of the community at large. The evening was enlivened by the professional talent of Miss Ransford, the Misses Williams, and several gentlemen of well-known celebrity. The commissariat department was such as is usually found at this famous rendezvous of the great meetings of London, and it gave general satisfaction to those assembled to partake of its excellence. The office of toastmaster was discharged officially by Mr. Harker. The subscriptions of the evening amounted to 1,2001 THUNDER- STORM AT LIVERPOOL.—A terrific thunder• storm raged in this locality on Sunday last, which, although very short in its duration, caused for the time considerable alarm. The weather, up to five o'clock on the evening of Sunday, had been remarkably fine, and had attracted considerable numbers of the in habitants to the river boats, which were greatly crowded. At five, however, the low, rumbling noise of thunder was heard in the distance, which grew louder as it neared, until it burst forth in all its violence over the town, ac companied by incessant flashes of lightning, which lit up the whole horizon. The scene several times was most imposing. The buildings shook with the effects of the thunder, which, after lasting half an hour, passed away to the eastward, and was succeeded by a heavy rain. The American ship Hindostan, at the Victoria Dock, loading for New Orleans, was struck by the lightning ; her maintopgallant-mast was slightly injured. No other accidents are reported.

The plugs could be fixed in with 1 marine glue, and huilt . in the wall as such a purpose." — Builder. STRAND THEATRE. The long-looked for opera by Auber, entitled Haydee, or the Secret, was performed for the first time in this country last evening at this theatre. It was originally performed in Paris, at the Opera Comique, in December last, and produced quite a sensation. The music par takes strongly of the barcarole style, although to our taste there is too much brass music in the instrumenta tion of several of the pieces. Miss Poole sustained the character of Ilaydee in a very effective manner. She was much applauded, and by her performance gave great interest to the part. Messrs. Borrani and D. W. King, as Malapieri and Loredano, were perfectly au fait, and contributed, by the effec tive manner in which they sustained their respective parts, to the success of the opera. The music is pretty, original, and lively; a fine flow of melody per vades the opera, and several beautiful airs are inter spersed throughout the composition. We must particu larize a romanza in the first act, sung by Miss Poole. It is a beautiful composition, and was very effectively the most , rns given—it was honou red b y an encore. Borrani also has an exquisite melody in the opera, " I was won by her beauty," which he gav e in his best s tyle. The second pppieclauesoef. music, ICig i which hthicehthw as given with his usual ird act , a , c ß t reoepzeens ar s beau tiful musical efforts we have hear d f or some time, and met taste sad sw eetness.

An A ff air of Honour concluded the even ing's entertainment, in which Oxberry , as Captain Car nage,t the house in a roar for the space of half an hour. and Romer, as Major Limkey , kept the Coleman sus tained her part in the farce with her usual vivacite teesprit, which pleased the audience greatly.

Carr in the chair. A report from the mining captain having been laid before the meeting, from which it appeared that a new lode had just been opened, which would require the removal of the engine at an expense of 3001. or 4001. A statement of accounts was read, from which it appeared that the balance in hand on the 31st of December last was 2,0941. 105. 5d., and the ore since sold to the end of Feb ruary, 2,1784 Is. 101, making a total of 4,272/. 12s. 3d. The expenditure had been 2,073/. 16s. 5d., leaving a ba lance of 2,198/. 19e. 10d., to which was to be added the amount for ore sold to the 30th of March, 7831. 75., making together 2,982/. 9s. 10d., subject to liabilities of 8464 10s., leaving a balance in favour of the company of 2,035/. 12s. 10d., independent of a revenue fund of 4504 After some discussion the report was adopted, and a di vidend of ss. per share, amounting to 1,2501, declared A short discussion took place relative to some shares claimed by the Coventry Bank (as the assignees of a Mr. Murray), but it appearing that the scrip was mislaid and the numbers unknown, it was determined to adjourn the consideration of the question. SOUTHAMPTON, MONDAY MORNING. —The Penin sular and Oriental Steam Navigation Company's ship Achilles, Captain Soy, arrived here last night, at eleven P.M., after a most extraordinarily quick passage from Gibraltar, Cadiz, Lisbon, and Vigo. She brought mails of the following dates, in charge of Lieutenant John Brown, R.N., Admiralty agent :—Gibraltar, March 25 ; Cadiz, 26; Lisbon, 29; Vigo, 30. The Achilles expe rienced fine weather on the voyage home, and brought 18 passengers, and 729 boxes oranges, 16 packages of specie, 14 cases hams, 3 cases oysters, and 38 packages general merchandise. The Achilles exchanged colours on the 26th with the steam-ship Ilindostan, steering for Gibraltar. Her Majesty's steamer Polyphemus was at Gibraltar, and her Majesty's ship Howe and the steamers Scourge, Comet, and Jackal were in the Tagus. By this steamer we have letters from our correspondent in Lisbon to the 29th ult. A Ministerial crisis existed, and the Duke of Saldanha was endeavouringitoreconstruct his Cabinet. Nothing of interest had occurred in the Cortes, Petitions were preparing against the Government plan for reducing the dividends on the internal debt. Public tranquillity remained undisturbed. DARING BURGLARY AT GAWCOTT.—Thursday morning last, between two and three o'clock, six men, with their faces blackened, and partly masked (one armed with a gun or carbine), entered a lone house on the right-hand side of the road leading from the Tinge wick -road to Gawcott, occupied by Mr. T. Caucott, about a mile and a half from Buckingham. Mr. Cau cott was alarmed by hearing a noise in the house, when he directly got out of bed and armed himself with a hay-knife (the only weapon of defence he kept in his room), and on going to the door he was met by a man, who held up a carbine to his breast, and said, " We want money, and money we will have. We have no work or money, and we are navvies." The other men then im mediately entered the bedroom in which Mr. Caucott and his wife slept, and took one 81. note, 265. in silver, six silver tea-spoons (marked " W. S.") eight other plated or German silver tea-spoons, and two larger ones, two silver watches, and two bottles of brandy, the whole of which they decamped with. They had each a candle lighted, and in the room they had to pass through, pre vious to coming to Mr. Caucott's room, there was a bed, the curtains of which, with the coverlid, sheets, blankets, and bed, were nearly all burnt to ashes, and strange to say, the house, which was thatched, was not burned to the ground. The thieves, or one of them, seeing this bed in flames, went back and took Mrs. Caucott in his arms, carried her down stairs, saying, "You shan't be hurt." There is no knowing how they effected their entrance, nor any clue as to the road they took. They left a crow bar behind them.—Aylesbury News. CITY OF LONDON GENERAL PENSION SOCIETY.— Yesterday a general meeting of this society was held at the London Tavern, Bishopsgate-street, for the election of two men and two women out of the list of candidates. The chair was taken by B. B. Cabbell, Esq. The directors, in their report, regretted they were unable to propose the election of a larger number of pensioners; but they trusted that, in due time, through a steady continuance of that support which they had received from the public, not only to increase the number of pensioners to be elected, but that a further increase in the payments to the pensioners would be determined on. The election having been concluded, a vote of thanks was passed to the chairman for presiding. GULLING THE NATIVES.—The recent continental disturbances have set the inhabitants of our isolated glens on the qui rive for news ; every traveller is im portuned for tidings, and any statement, however incon gruous, is gratefully swallowed. The other day a tourist was accosted in a truly parasitical manner for news by the shepherd at Achnashean, and, being a bit of a wag, he made the poor man believe that the French had all landed at Lochearron, on their way to Dingwall, and, added he sneeringly—" Your sheep will be all laid low." The shepherd reported progress immediately—the story was credited—and, ere Sol gilded the summit of Benhee, his sheep and himself thanked their stars that they were safely ensconced in the vales of Torridon.—Ross - shire Ad. ertiser. INCREASE AND DIMINUTION OF SALARIES, &C. (PUBLIC OFFICES.)—By a return published of the in crease and diminution which has taken p lace within t s year 1847 in public offices and departments , it appeeaehe r n that in the number of persons emp l oy ed there bas b an increase of 1,282 against a diminution of 32; and in total comprising salaries, emoluments, retired allow ances, &c., the increase is 133,9261., and thediminution 24,0751., making a balance of 109,849/. for the increase. The increase has been chiefly in the Post-office depart i amt. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS CITY, QUARTER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday were 4,000 to 5,000 bales, including 3,500 bales American, at 4d.: to sid. per lb. The inquiry was better.— Railway Shares continued very dull, and prices were again drooping. There is no news of particular import from the con tinent. Affairs are all in a disturbed state,: and it is impossible to predict the issue. We learn from Bel gium that there was a proposal to effect a commercial league with Holland. The great establishment of Cockerell, at Seraing, had solicited aid from the Go vernment. Commerce, despite the abundance of money, is sadly trammelled by the political crisis abroad. Messrs. Wil kinson and Jewesbury report that— " Zhe ccntinued and important political events of the past month, which have spread with such rapid strides over a great part of the Continent of Europe, have pro duced an almost total suspension of commercial opera tions for Foreign Account. Importers have freely offered foreig n and colonial produce , which has caused prices to rul rather unsteady. Dealers continue to buy largely, but only to supply immediate wants. Money is very abundant in Lombard street, but the rates for dis counting bills are not so low as they have been, four per cent. being charged for good paper ; the amount of bul lion now in the Bank is above fifteen and a quarter millions, and a considerable increase is expected before the payment of the dividends. " By the arrival of the Overland Mail we have dates from China to the 30th January, and Calcutta to the 7th of February ; at the former place the proclamation of Sir John Davis,!to the effect that all British residents were to hold themselves in readiness to leave Canton at a moment's notice, had caused a total suspension of busi ness ; whilst from Calcutta the chief topic of interest had been the wretched state of the affairs of the Union Bank. By the disclosures which have been made the dis trust and want of confidence which before existed had been much increased. _ _ - " From the manufacturing districts the accounts con tinue unfavourable ; what little is doing is entirely for the home market, foreign orders, instead of being re ceived, have been in many instances countermanded ; could we see a chance of anything like a settled state approaching in political affairs on the Continent, we might safely predict a speedy return to a wholesome demand for our manufactures." The accounts from New York by the line of packet ship Skiddy are of a favourable complexion. The treaty was dit indemnity e rran t g he arranged, and there is a probability that part of the of paid to Mexico will benefit the English cre ditors disheartening Continental accounts are still looked upon as Republic. The stock, and yet it is not to induce continued sales of a little singular that speculators, rather than th e public, e would b are the w sellers, for money stock is positively scarce, and ell.g to loan it to the dealers as an operation thatanswers so, but that the i bankers and large hold etxhtre their me l purpose.y difficult A m idst such conflicting opini ons i t is maintenance is no doub o t f to arrive at the tru th, but we believe that the general feelin g is again s t t h e present prices, and that as a natural consequence there is scarcely a jobber, broker, or speculator, who would not rather buy than sell, and who, to some extent in fact, has not actually done so. Thus, unless parties are quietly buying back—and if so, how is it that th e market still declines? —the "Bear" accounts oustand ing must be enormous, and may yet prove dis astrous, if some astounding event on the Continent does not induce a rush of bona fide sellers. The expe rience of former account days shows that while events look threatening or auspicious, the operators for a fall or rise defer most pertinaciously, even to the "m spring ing" of the rattle on settling day, the arrangent of their differences. It may not be difficult to restrain the public from buying, even in the face of the extraordinary abundance of money, but atter a fall of nearly ie per cent., it is not so easy to induce them to sell.

DEATH OF SIR SAMUEL BUSH ISIBYRICK, K.H.L., &c.—This gentleman, so well known for his knowledge of ancient armour, in testimony of which he was knighted by William IV. in 1832, died on the 2d instant, at his seat, Goodrich-court, Herefordshire, deeply regretted by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. _ I n le m w a as born in 1783, being the only son of the late J_ h d co-heir Peter borough House, Middlesex, by the daug i h e t r e t r s. an He mar. rick, Esq., of George-street, Westminster, and of Petir: of Samuel Bush, Esq., of Fore House, deceased was an advocate in of Cambridgeshire.

The flame* commenced on the first floor, and before their existence became known, one of the apartments sad all it contained w ere enveloped in fire. An instant alarm was raised, a nd several parties hastened to raised that two children were sleeping in the room ad joining the one on fire. Some of the neighbours ran up the stairs for the purpose of rescuing the children, but the flames were rushing out of the door with such vio lence as to prevent any one from getting to the apart ment by the regular way. Fortunately the police obtained a ladder, which was raised in front of the house, and by that means the children were got out, but not until they were nearly choked with the smoke. Intelligence having been ...spatelicd to the engine stations, and, with as little delay as possible, engines arrived. Unfortunately Mr. Yew was not insured. A spark from a lighted candle, it is understood, was the cause of the mischief. SINGULAR SEIZURE OF ILLICIT SEIRITS.—On Saturday evening Messrs. Bayford and Lewins, the active excise officers, being on duty in Bigh-street, Southwark, and observing a man of suspicious appear ance loitering backwards and forwards near to one of the coach and van offices, it occurred to them that he bad recently delivered or was waiting for a load of goods, and from suspicion of his being engaged in a con traband trade, they entered the coach-office, where se veral packages were lying about. Having examined the whole of them minutely, one large box excited their attention, more particularly from the address attached and its general appearance. They accordingly ordered that the box should be opened, when it was discovered that it was but a covering to a large tin case filled with illicit spirits, 30 per cent. over proof. After this revela tion of the contents, of course, no claimant appeared. The officers then seized the spirits and conveyed them to the excise-office warehouse in Broad-street. 8% 7 7i 84% M% 8 1 4 72% 113% .Imlll , . 1.. IMO 8% 7% .7i - 7* ...... 111,4 s•N
