Here in one example is represented the strong. est passion and the strongest principle admirably supported.

We understand that, irre spective of merchant vessels, this is the seventh Go vernment ship which has been, within a comparatively recent period, ashore on the German, and it is asserted that the amount of low the public purse incurred by the grounding of the Peterel would, in the present advanced state of science, have gone far to defray the entire expense of removing this dangerous obstruction to navigation, which lies off Devil's Point, in a narrow part of the only entrance to Hamoaze. Her Majesty's screw steam-frigate Amphion, 34, Captain W. J. Williams, at seven o'clock this morn ing left the port by the westward channel and stood away for the egitward. The Russia steam-frigate Wladimir, Captain Korinloff, arrived in sight of the citadel about eleven o'clock this morning, and proceeded up Haeloaze to take in coals for her voyage to the Black Sea.

She was accordingly ready to start this morning, when a subsequent order was received, in consequence of the Black Eagle not having arrived, for her to proceed to Blackwall this morning, which she did at half-past seven o'clock, to embark the select committee of the Admiralty, employed in inquiring into the working of the various departments of the dockyard, consisting of Captain Alexander Milne, one of the Lords of the Admiralty; Mr. H.

The committee arrived at Blackwell, and embarked at nine o'clock in the Sharpshooter for Chatham. It is probable the committee would meet the Black Eagle, that steamer having left Portsmouth at eleven o'clock yesterday.

" Intelligence reached town on Saturday ; by €z press from Bloem Fontein, that certain of the emi grant boers beyond the Orange River, under the command of Andreas Pretorius, are again in a state of insurrection, and endeavouring to form a combina tion with the native chiefs against British authority generally, and more especially with the view of crushing the rising settlement of Natal. These facts are no longer matter of conjecture, as depending on rumour or indirect evidence. In a letter addressed to Sir Andries Stockenstrom , by Pretorius himself, they are avowed and distinctly set forth. The resi dent magistrate at Wenburg has only saved himself by a hasty'flight, leavin g some Of his family end his clerk in the hands of the insurgents; and the British resident at Bloem Fontein, Major Warden, narrowly , escaped being taken prisoner and carried to the rebel, camp by a party of armed boers, who waylaid him when engaged in the duties of Ids office." " CAPE TOWN, JOLT 29. " His Excellency Sir Harry Smith leaves Cape Town this morning for the north-east(rn frontier, to put himself at the head of the force rapidly concen trating on Colesberg and Bloem Fontein. The latest intelligence from Bloein Fontein is to the 16th inst, Major Warden was strengthening his position with all the means at his command, expecting to be at tacked by a large force under Pretorius in a short time from that date. He has been joined by a con siderable number of English deserters, who had from time to time taken refuge among the boers ; but not being prepared for the crime of open rebellion, or fore seeing its consequences, they have availed them selves of a free pardon offered by his Excel lency, and presented their persons and services, not much to be relied on, both to Major Warden and to Mr. O'Reilly, in the Caledon district. From these men, and by other means, it is ascer tained that Pretorius had then, under his immediate command, at Wenburg, about 500 men, and that he, with Jabobs and other active commandants, by false hood, threats, and violence, were daily adding to their numbers, g and might be able, on th e w h o l e , t o b r i ng. into the field "about 1,2.00 combatatifr. There is no native power in that quar,ter that can for a moment resist such a force as this. If assailed, they must dis perse and flee, or submit, for the time, to swell the ranks of the insurgents. The whole country beyond the Orange River must, therefore, by this time, be' ' a state of disorder and misery. " The force with which Major Warden will have to hold such a font as he can construct in haste, till relieved, is very small; probably not more than 100 and 150 men of all sorts. With these he has taken such precautionary measures as will very much astonish the boers they attempt an assault; and he may confidently defy a regular siege for thirty days , within whi c h time he will certainly b e relieved, unless some un foreseen occurrence obstructs Sir Harry Smith's ar rangements." [PRICE sp. "; - Since the above information was received, ac counts have come by express from Bloem Fontein of an attempt on the part of a body of the insurgent boers to take the British resident, Major Warden, prisoner. The mail from Bloem Fontein and Coles berg, due yesterday, has not reached town; we have consequently received no direct information from those parts, but we are informed that a few days ago Major Warden and Mr. Rex were out surveying, when the former was accosted by three armed boers, who told bim thdt Pretorius had ordered them to bring him a prisoner to his camp. They showed him an order signed by Pretorius to this effect. No attempt it seems was made to seize Major Warden, and the three men departed and returned with a re inforcement of some twenty others, all armed, who signified that they had come upon the same errand. But in the meantime Major Warden had also re ceived a reinforcement of Cape Mounted Riflemen, and the boers rode off without offering any violence. " Information of this affair has been dispatched by express to his Excellency, and a detachment of the C.M.R. are to proceed to Cradock immediately on their way to Colesberg. " We also learn from the Eastern Province Herald, that after Mr. Biddulph had left Wenbury, 50 armed boers arrived at that village—quietly walked into the court-house, passed some resolutions —and defied British interference ; as also that a large meeting had been held at sand River on the 20th of June (the date of Pretoriiis's communication to Sir A. Stocken atrom), at which Pretorius and Jan Kock, who are said to be reconciled, decided to sweep the country of all British authority.' " MUTINY AND MURDER ON THE HIGH SEAS.. --The ship St. Louis, Captain Haley, left Vera Cruz on the evening of the 21st tilt. for New Orleans, with a crew of eight men before the mast,-two of them being Spaniards ktafey on the twealeno kiitic,;(ltit t C,1110.,:1.te haik, .rh~.a.rur aims asked permission to allow them_ to sleep aft, for they feared very much that the crew would carry their threats into execution, which privilege the captain readily granted them. Antonio Sibelich took a seat alongside the mainmast, and a passenger named James Chapell and Captain Haley lying down on the poop-deck on mat tresses to sleep, it being the mate's watch on deck at the time. At about eleven o'clock at night on the 28th ult., and 100 miles to the westward of the S.W. Pass, Mr. Chapel! had fallen asleep about ten minutes, and Cap tain Haley was partly in a dose, when he heard Antonio Sibelich jump up, and saw him stab Mr. Cha pell with a large carving -knife under the ribs on the right bide, to the depth of seven inches, at the same time making a lunge at Captain Haley, stabbing him in the right shoulder, 'penetrating to the bone, the force of which turned the point of the knife. He made an at tempt at the mate without injuring him, the point of his weapon being out of order. Mr. Chapell exclaimed at the time he received the wound, "My God, what have I done that they should murder me?" and ran below. Captain Haley followed him to the cabin, when Captain Haley fainted away from the loss of blood. Mr. Chapell breathed his last about twenty minutes after receiving the wound. Captain Haley states that when he was about sailing from Vera Cruz, a steam. boat came off to him and delivered a package of money to Mr. Chapell, which the men saw, and supposed it to be doubloons, which was the cause of their committing the murder— the whole amount being only four hundred dollars, in Mexican money. They were immediately secured and put in irons, and given in charge to the United States Marshal yesterday, on their arrival in the city. Captain Haley states pat the balance of the crew were not im plicated with - the mutineers.—New Orleans Commercial Times, Sept. 4. DUTCH CATTLE AND PROVISIONS.—The following arrivals of cattle and provisions took place at this me tropolis from the Dutch ports on Monday.

It has rained almost inces santly day and night, and the short dark days before Christmas have already set in. This, coupled with short trade and no trade (the gun trade excepted), gives the toy-shop of the world a dull appearance. Yesterday Mr. Bedford held an inquest at the Westminster Hospital, on the body of Michael Grey, aged six. The deceased's parents reside in Gardener's ' lane, Westminster; and on Sunday evening last, about five o'clock, deceased was playing on some coal barges lying in the river off Millbank, when in stepping from ono bargo to another he fell between them into the water, and sunk immediately. An alarm was given, and in about five minutes the body was found by a water man, who took it to the nearest public-house, where the usual means were used to restore animation, but in ffectually, life being extinct. In consequence of num bers of children resorting on a Sunday to the spot where the accident happened, the coroner said he would write to the police to put a stop to the dangerous practice. Verdict—" Accidental lleath.". BRIGHTON AND SOUTH COAST RAILWAY.--W e learn from a correspondent that there is a strange move ment in progress in the direction of this railway, the object of which is to reduce the number of directors to nine. We confess we are at a loss to understand how such a movement can fairly originate with the directors. What right have the directors, who owe their position to opinions of the shareholders, to interfere in any way with their decision? The shareholders have elected a certain number of directors to represent them and attend to their interests. By what power do the directors at tempt to reduce that number and impose upon a smaller responsibility so important, and which had been legally delegated to a larger body? A ballot is to take place tomorrow, at the Bridge-house Hot e l, t o e ff ect t hi s object. e sincerely trust that the shareholders will receive timely notice of this movement, and, by sup porting the whole of the present directors, defeat a com bination that would deprive them of some of the most intelligent and trustworthy members of the board.-- Chronicle. SOUTHAMPTON, OCT. 3.—M. M.

L 0 V E is the leading feeling of the human breast. More exalted than mere passion, it soars high above every other impulse of nature, and is not only stronger than avarice, but more engrossing even than ambition. No man is exempt from its intuence, or can avoid its sway ; and business, pleasure, philo sophy, and divinity itself become neglected under the enthralling power of LOVE, which, unlike most things, increases in intensity with time, until it receives the sacred consummation of marriage. When union does not take place, however, this passion, this fervour, this golden tide of the manliest feelings becomes a deadly poison in the heart, which now' darkens, as it before bright ened, all things upon earth. How is it that men, of most un changeable habits, will change at the very altar, and after a life time spent in the fulfilment of every engagement, snap the very con tract asunder which should be most binding to au honourable mind? It is the effect of conscience. The Lover, by enervation of early habits, or the results of secret disease, knows himself to be disqualified, and dares not enter a state which has been instituted by Divine Law for the fulfilment of important ends. The wretched condition of such a being mast subsequently be beyond measure deplorable Loving and beloved, he entails the most miserable disappointments on the object of his choice, and upon himself a desolation the most horrible, when the simple possession of natural attributes would change the scene, and yield to both a life of unalloyed happiness. The subject is interesting, and d eserves the attention of all. These desirous of investigating it will find the fullest and most satisfactory information in the little work entitled SELF-PRESERVATION. illustrated by forty coloured engravings on the anatomy, physiology, and diseases of the reproductive organs; with practical observa tions on the secret infirmities of youth and maturity, resulting from solitary habits, excesses, o: infection.

La'Mert en the Infirmities of Youth and Maturity. —" There aro scenes in the drama of life which are acted with no spectator but Conscience ; and of these the result is ever disastrous. Happy the mortal who meets with a timely mentor to snatch him from the gulf into which such scenes must plunge him 1 In the book before us such a monitor is to be found, calculated to warn and instruct the erring, without impairing one idea that can vitiate a mind not al ready tutored by the vices of which it treats. It is written in a style of masterly precision and lucidity, blending the profoundest truths of philosophy and physics with the loftiest precepts of morality. It is a' production calculated to confer a vital benefit, physically and morally, upon all who are tempted from the rigid path of abstemiousness and propriety. A father may trust it in the hands of his boy. By un taught innocence the book is not, of course, needed; but wherever laxity has prevailed, the tender yet awful voice breathing in these pages is likely to prove as strikingly beneficial as the admonitions of a homily blended with the practical advice of a writer on medicine." —United Kingdom Magazine.

Man and his Maker alike condemn that which " yields no fruit," and we find large tracts of land abandoned for the same reason that caused the barren fig tree to be cursed. This curse clings to Sterility in every shape ; it brings upon the earth famine. But the malediction breathes loudest and deepest into the ear of those of the human race who remain childless in a community which must altogether fail, without continual additions. Not only do such encounter the silent scorn or pity of their fellow creatures, but their own hearts condemn them ; wealth brings no consolation to the wifeless bosom—brings no return for the childless home. It is a remarkable fact that the unproductiveness of soil and species arises from similarity of cause. Some lands are the produce of vitiated strata that yields an offspring as unhealthy as itself. Others nurture in their juices the poison of minerals, which form the foe to vegetation. Others again lose value by being too early worked, before they are fit for cultivation, Some soils, originally fertile, become barren by excess of tillage; others are spoiled by unwholesome manures ; and others, again, by the want of perseverance and nerve In the husbandman. Mark the ana logy ! Man also is too often vitiated by the parent from whom he springs. Man is too often ruined by the indiscriminate use of mine rals, such as mercury, &c. Man also tries his constitution too early, and overtasks it too late. Man, by unwholesome contact can also in fect his frame ; and, to render the comparison complete, man can render a naturally vital constitution unproductive through ignoraree of his organization and diffidence in his powers. Nor does the analogy cease here. The detriments to cultivation above detailed have Leen recently so entirely overcome by modern Improvement in agricul ture, that farmers are now enabled to produce crops almost from stone itself; and, in like manner, Sterility in the human race is now removable through the profound.; discoveries in physic which enlighten the present age. In testimony of this, a volume has recently been produced which fills the heart with hope and is calculated to remove Sterility altogether. It is from the pen of Messrs. J. L. CURTIS AND CO., Consulting Surgeons, 7, Frith. street, Soho-square, London, and bears the title of " MANHOOD: The Causes of its Premature Decline, with Plain Directions for: its Perfect Re storation ;" and is sent by W.

One half the world are desolately single, and the ether supposing them married, questionably contented. Diflidence, or a sense of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em sitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea 3f caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret an ;omprosiag harry; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, end broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness end social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should forma an item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes is: neglect wound more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

So much has been said by the press of Mr. George Owen's personation of this great cha racter, that it is needless to add more than that he is con sidered the best Hamlet on the provincial boards. Mrs. Owen, as the Queen, looked and played the character to admiration. She also appeared in the farce of John of Paris as the Princess of Navarre, and sang some excellent songs. Both in the tragedy and farce the performers received great applause for their exer tions ; it is considered the best company that ever appeared in Wrexham. On Wednesday Richelieu was performed to a full house, .the ,personage of the wily Cardinal by Mr. Greorg? Owen astonished all present. It was regarded as a very surprising performance for one so young, being only 21 years and a few months ; he received great applause in every s linepee c N h i n t he a e g p u a e r of Julie de o sse s M s e o s r t im greatar, bytr tragic E g l ic s m m ability. This accomplished lady was honoured by Royal com• mand at the Theatre Royal, Drury-lane, some short time back, in the character of Juliet, in the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet, her Majesty being pleased to express her approbation of Miss Montague 's clever delineation of that interesting character. No Song No Supper followed. Mrs. Owen, as Margaretta, sang some pretty songs with good effect ; and the farce went off amidst roars of laughter. On Thurs day the play was The Lady of Lyons; Claude Mel notte, by Mr. John Coleman, a gentleman of con siderable talent and perseverance ; Pauline by Miss Emmeline Montague, whose chaste and elegant per sonation of the haughty beauty won general and deserved admiration. She was ably supported by Mr. Owen's corps dramatique. On Friday the performance was under the especial pa tronage of Sir Robert Cunliffe, Bart. The play was The Merchant of Venice, with the farce of His Last Legs. Miss Emmeline Montague, as Portia, was seen to great advantage, and received enthusiastic applause from a full house, including the beauty and fashion of Wrexham and the vicinity. Mr. George Owen, as Shylock, played with great ability. On Saturday the tragedy of Romeo and Juliet was per formed—Romeo by Mr. George Owen, Juliet by Miss Montague : both parts were admirably sustained ; and, at the close, Mr. George Owen and Miss E. Montague were summoned before the curtain to re ceive the renewed plaudits of the audience. The Stranger followed : the Stranger being personated by Mr. George Owen, and Mrs. Haller by Miss Emme line Montague, with great talent and pathos : the performances were for the lady's benefit and last appearance. In consequence of the general wish of the public, Miss E. Montague was re-engaged by Mr. G. Owen for three nights more. Macbeth, on Mon day, under the patronage of Sir W. W.

Payne held an inquest at the Jamaica Coffee-house, Cornhill, on the body of Mr. James E. Gates, aged 40, for many years head clerk to Mr. Donnison, shipping notary, of No. 71, Cornhill. The deceased had eaten a hearty dinner on the previous day, and as he was returning to the office, about four o'clock in the afternoon, when opposite to the Jamaica Coffee house, he suddenly vomited a quantity of coagulated blood, and before any one could get to his assistance he fell to the ground in a state of insensibility. A medical man saw him immediately, and pronounced him lifeless, death being produced by the rupture of a blood vessel. Verdict—" Natural death." PROGRESS OF THE EARLY CLOSING MOVEMENT. —The linendrapers' shops of the district comprising Tottenham Court-road, Hampstead-road, King's-cross, Marchmont• street, &c., began on Monday evening last to be closed at eight o'clock ; and in nearly all the lead ing thoroughfares of London most of what are termed the respectable shopkeepers, in various trades, are now closing at the same hour, many even at seven o'clock. There appears, however, to be a large number of per sons in a small way of business who still adhere to the old system, 8 451 A.M. 12 30 E 231 5 151 i 2S E 30 10 40 10 60 P.M. 12 39 1 1 451 s of 7 45 7 15 9 AO 11 • P.M. 2 15 SUNDAY TRAINS. 1,2,&3, 1 & 2 Only to Car lisle. 10 I 1,2, & 3. $ 45 12 30 $ 23 115 Ex press class. 9sl P.M 12 10 a ion 6 581 1 & 2. ♦.M. r s 30 Lle 0 1 0 3 25 3 35 i 16 4 0 5 15 5 0 9 18 A.M. 1 30 1 40 S OCTOBER 5, 1848. 7 Harpy, st. v., 1845, Lieut.-Com.

Is. to 55., and the c ommitteemen's subscription from 51. to 21. M. Vouillon (the president) took the chair at a quarter past eight, and in a brief speech explained to his countrymen the objects of the present meeting, which appeared to be generally approved of by the meeting. After the president had concluded, some p er .. son announcing himself to be an " ouvrier,” made a speech wherein he professed sentiments of universal benevolence, fraternity, equality, and he ended by pro posin • g that each subscribing member should have a vote (for what purpose was not explained), and that the sub scription for committee-men should be 1/., instead of 21. Another French gentleman made some observations on this proposition, and the meeting broke up into separate knots of debaters without having, at half-past nine o'clock, come to any conclusion respecting the matter in question. TIIE VACANT SEAT AT LYNN.—We are requested to state that Mr. G. F. Young, late Member for Tyne mouth, has been requested to offer himself as a can didate to fill the vacancy in the representation of King's Lynn, caused by the death of the lamented Lord George Bentinck. The application to Mr. Young has been ma d e by merchants, shipowners, and others, who are averse to the repeal of the navigation-laws. We are also informed that the entire interest of the Duke of Portland will be given to Mr. Young upon the ensuing tleetiollt ROMAN CATHOLICENDOWMEN T. Last night a numerous meeting of persons opposed to the endowment of the Roman Catholic religion and religious establishments generally, was held at Fins bury Chapel. Mr. E. MIALL was called to the chair, and ex plained the objects of the meeting. They had met there that evening not to oppose any particular form of religion, but to protest against the endowment of any: They wanted protection for all, but payment for none. The present meeting would have been held even if they had not before their eyes that project which had been of late so much alluded to. This was the first of a series of six or seven meetings which would be held within the precincts of the metropolis. It was the commencement of their autumnal and winter campaign. They should exert themselves to make converts to their opinion. It was impossible to con template the events which were taking place throug out Europe without coming to the conclusion that the principle of a state church was losing ground. The National Assembly at Frankfort had come to the conclu sion that there should be no state church. In Italy the voluntary principle was, perhaps, more developed. The whole tendency of the movement in that part of Europe was to deprive the civil magistrate of all in terference in church matters. Of France he could not speak so favourably. In their own country every one must have seen how the Whigs—the Liberal Whigs—the friends of civil and religious freedom, treated the question.—(Hear, hear.) They all knew how their Liberal statesmen had belied all their former professions.—(Hear, hear.) They had of late been forming establishments in their colonies, and were creating bishops who were, forsooth, to be of no ex pense to the country.—(Laughter.) They had heard something of the Established Church in Ireland. That, establishment was not generally considered to promete the peace and welfare of the people.—(Hear, hear.) Yet the way that Lord John Russell would cure the mischief was by creating a second endowed church by the side of the Established Church. That was the general belief in the clubs, and even in Parliament. The question was, would they wait till the thing was formally proposed ? He would advise them to prepare now.—(Cheers.) They would lose nothing by preparation, even if Lord John Rus sell did not make the proposition. They did not op pose this project because of their opposition to the doctrines and discipline of the Roman Catholic Church. He was unquestionably of opinion that, if there was to be an endowed church in Ireland, that Church ought to be the Roman Catholic Church.— (Hear.) But he contended that there should be no endowment for any church, and that was the princi ple which they were met there to contend for.— (Hear, hear.) He looked forward to the time when the civil rulers would leave the Church uncontami nated by their touch. If they did so, he would not be afraid to leave the Church and religion to their own spiritual vitality.—(Hear, hear.) The Rev. J. GORDON proposed the following reso lution :—" That this meeting, having the profoundest conviction of the evils resulting from legislating by the civil Government in matters of religion, rejoice in the evident tendency of public events both in this country and the continent to hasten the downfal of ecclesiastical establishments." Having first addressed himself to the religious aspect of the question, the speaker censured at some length the conduct of the Government in the matter. He did not think that the endowment of a second church in Ireland-.would add to the peace of that country. He had no inten tion of speaking favourably of the events which had lately taken place in Ireland, but he belived that the people there were abandoned and betrayed by the priests. The Rev. Dr. MASSEY seconded the resolution. Mr. R. TAYLOR said that there was a large portion of the population who, he feared, possessed very little of the religious sentiment. He thought that, for their sakes, the entire abolition of those religious es tablishments which had been founded by the piety of their ancestors, would be an evil. He agreed in a great deal of what had been said, but he could not believe it wrong that the State should contribute to the support of religion. So far he dissented from the resolution. The resolution was then put and carried. The Rev. J. BURNETT moved a resolution pledging the meeting to oppose the endowment of the Roman Catholic priesthood. That they regarded _such a project as an attempt to pexpethate the etltte.?ce of the present by the 'creationl)l;a _new_.t.gelneiagtis..4l paying thee - teactiers of all religious creeds. ' `fiat suai a measure was not demanded by the people of Ireland and that they looked upon it with well merited suspi cion ; that in place of doing justice to Ireland, it would throw a veil over glaring wrongs, and prolong the ascendancy of a narrow section to whose neglect of duty the present miseries of Ireland might be mainly traced. He said that if religion came from Heaven the first proof of its divinity was that it should sup port itself.—(Hear, hear.) He could not understand a Church that boasted of being built on a rock, and as being one against which the gates of Hell should not prevail, coming to the State and saying, " Help me, for I cannot maintain myself."—(llear, hear.) A gentleman who preceded him had alluded to the Whigs, and said that they violated their promises. Now, the Whigs never said that they would give up the Church Establishment. All they did was to pre vent the Established Church from treating the Dis senters so badly as they used to do. They did not wish to prevent the Church Establish ment from robbing the pockets of the Dis senters, but only they must do it in the gentlest manner.—(Laughter.) They cut down ten of the bishops, but they kept the revenue of those bishops, as if it was to the bishops, and not to the money that they objected.—(Hear, hear.) He believed that they would do no good to Ireland by endowing a second church in that country. What Ireland wanted was to be let alone, to allow her to develop her own re sources.—(Hear, hear.) He did not join in the cry of No Popery. He believed that that cry was at best a mistake. His cry was not aNo Popery one, but a no-payment-to-any-church cry.—(Hear, hear.) On this question he had none of the heated feelings of the theological controversialist, nor the penurious ness of the political economist. He was actuated solely by a strong conviction of the evils of a state church, and that it would not contribute to the peace of Irelaud.—(Hear, hear.) The Rev. A. REID seconded the resolution, which was carried. A vote of thanks was passed to the chairman, and the meeting separated; EXPENSE OF PARLIAMENTARY PRINTING.-.-" The Second Report from the Select Committee on Printing," just issued, contains some curious particulars as to the expenses of Parliamentary printing, and the savings which it is intended shall be attempted. The first re duction proposed by the Committee is in the number printed and in the binding. a saving of 4001. a year being anticipated with respect to the latter alone. The report also suggests that all "incidental printing" should no longer be executed without a direct order .from the speaker. "The reports of commissioners and papers, presented by command," form a large branch of printing,:over which neither House exercises control In 1845, the printing of those documents cost 27,474/. ; in 1844, 33,1031.; in 1846, 36,6491. The Committee re commends that in future some control should be exercised over this unlimited power of printing, both as to the number of copies and the quantity of matter sent to press; and they propose that in future, where, practi cable, reports only of commissioners shall be printed for delivery to the House, without a special notice; the MSS. of evidence, &c., to be deposit e d i n th e lib rary o f either House, or elsewhere, for g eneral use. The Com mittee which sat in 1846 reported that to the end of the session of 1645 a saving of 7,100/. had been effected by printing papers in an abstracted form; and since that date, a further saving, the present report states, has been effected in the sessions 1846 and 1847 of 12,8641.; making since the date when this plan was first tried a saving of 19,9641. The returns do not state what has been the actual cost of printing for the sessions of 1846, 1847, or 1848. In 1845, however, it appears it was 43,1731. 6s. 4d., a sum considerably above that of any year since 1838, when it amounted to 45,4341., and in 1837 it was 48,127 L, and in 1836, 49,288/. The number of Parliamentary papers printed in 1846 was 724; in 1847, 757. The sums paid for warehouse room for the copies kept in store were in these two years 6221. and 6611.

NARROW EscAPE.—On Saturday forenoon, as a lad, in the service of a hotel in this city, was proceeding up Leith-street with some luggage on his back, belong ing to a gentleman who preceded him a few yards, on his way to the railway station at Waverly-bridge, a pistol suddenly exploded within a trunk, which so terrified the lad that be hastily threw it down. The noise of the explosion attracted a considerable crowd, to which the gentleman explained that he had a pair of pistols in the trunk, the charges of which he thought he had with drawn, when he was allowed to proceed on his way. A few minutes afterwards a lead ball was found against the wall below the window of a jeweller's shop, which had been completely flattened by the force of the explo sion, but had fortunately missed the passengers who usually throng that thoroughfare, as well as the lad who carried the tranke...Edinburg4 Ativertiich PE
