Mr. MET'; stated that if trade continued in the pre sent depressed condition, it was calculated that, by the end of next week, 300 weavers, who had work at present, would be thrown out of employment. Mr. STIRRAT stated that the applications for relief last week had increased at the rate of 60 a-day. Dr. BURNS entered into a statement to show the gra dual breaking down of the people from the want of em ployment First, the careless and indifferent applied for relief, followed by a better class. There was a third class, who had not yet applied, having probably some thing to fallback upon, and there was a large body of respectable and industrious females out of employment that would never think of coming here to ask supply. He thought there could not he less than four or the thousand people, including children, that were really in need of supply. A report was read from Johnstone ' which statod that there were 120 families, comprising 360 individuals, re ceiving relief. The average income of each family was Is, 6d. per week. The above destitution arises princi pally from the stoppage of cotton manufactories. A num ber of judicious measures were adopted to collect funds for the relief of the distressed, and a deputation Was immediately-dispatched to London, to solicit the heads of her Majesty's Government for their aid and patron age to a subscription ; and also to apply t 2 the London Relief Committee, and generally to proehre contribu tions in the metropolis, and elsewhere in England, for relief of the distressed operatives of this town and county. —Paisley Advertiser.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, useless, and even bad books. With the force Of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much portesal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the tiummon stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from this work in proof of our assertion would be departing front the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful rerusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and spill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the few books now coming befor the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Msgnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them, of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita tion in sating that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set down by the every-day observer as the result of common causes, such as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre nielyt satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis any diseases, such as Pulmonary gat h is a f :e Consumption, Epilepsy, &c.,e., c tory. shown N lre teat say many hitherto the opprobria of mei a t t e d termination to j . u di - sh awuet h g o o r s t f o o o r e ci in ou e' s mtraeya"tmwehnetn, t h s k e en b r i o n u p g r h o t pe t r o t a im s a v a o u d r s a u b b l e m . far in ssying that society is de e p l y ' nue as any other class of affecti ons.

Major-General Sir John May, K.C.B. and K.C.H., has resigned the office of Inspector of the Royal Carriage Department in the Arsenal at N'Voolwith, Which ho filled with the greatest public satisfaction during the last nine years, having been appointed to it in 1832. On the re ,- - tirement of this brave officer from active employment the following account of his long services will be read with interest :—Sir John May entered the Royal Military Academy on the 3d of February, 1704, as a gentleman cadet, and was appointed to a commission in the Royal Engineers on the 6th of March, 1795. He was employed afloat in bomb service from the let of December, 179?, to the 16th of April, 1801, and was • present in the engagement at Copenhagen in 1107. From the 18th of January, 1809, to the 26th of June; 1814, he served in the Peninsula ) _ and in France, and was present at the battles of Talavera, I3usace, and Fuentes d'Onor, and the sieges of 'Ciudad Rodrigo and Badajos, and the siege of the forte' and battle of Sala• mance, the battle of Vittoria, the siege of Snil Sebastian) the passages of the Bidassoa, Nivelles, and hive ; at the battle of Toulouse, and at numerous skirmishes during that long war. After the short peace of 1814 he accom panied the troops to the Continent, and was present at Quatro Bras and Waterloo, and at the capture of Paris. Sir John received two musket balls through the left thigh when charging the French rear-guard on thomorn ing after the battle of Salamanca, and a violent contusion at Vittoria. His decorations as a reward - for his ser vices are a medal and three clasps. Sir John May was raised to the rank of Major-General on the 28th of June, 1838. l css i w c . plab b rr j peri o . eesi adno j h g ' n a saeebLast',during tdou f mirit t a:to l ineh i d e rtteei:: R dlevaa o abtei y eyn a c l istve l l: r r i ae l dr, e o c ar y nn , odfs a p‘iT g a)l a ilono l n - : inwctahainae C irrterl o inool l s o ot ,nyal officer,ykeah lieaen officent by. the Til s p x c e c s t i o g r im e .. f tion of Sir John May. 6C to 0 27 to N oto ill, —to 7 ., $6 53 18 24 15 21 36 33 40 52 82 24 17 19 P 8 30 45 GS 126 31 18 2•4 22 26 59 WO 23 :t1 21 24 gl 66 53 60 26 27 22 25 ift 89 48 60 23 2i 21 84 32 33 43 51 24 27 17 20 30 22 64 6(1 20 ~.!

On some' of them leaving at twelve o'clock yesterday, they were hissed—the greater portion of them have their dinners on the premises. Au Inspector and several men of ,the B division are on duty at the entrance of the works to prevent the men from being interfered with on leaving work. By the strike upwards of 1,000 persons (including the wives and families of the men) are affected, and it is sincerely hoped that some amicable arrange ment may be speedily coma to. There are upwards of 20,000 moons, 15,009 of whom belong to the Union. I^ untry, First Second Third Pate. 445• Od 39s Od —s 0d BeAnt 47. 01 44. 01 40, Od OVERFLOW OF THE THAMES. One of the hitthest tides for many years, took place yes t n-dayafterneon, about an hour or more before high water, half-past four o'clock, caused by the violent (*ale of last night and this morning, end the great fall of rain in the interior of the country. The river was in full flood, and must have overflowed its banks for many miles, if we may judge from the appearance in the me tropolis. Oa the Surrey side the streets along the river were covered with water, and some of them close to the banks, such as Pedlar's acre, and the .streets in continuation of it to the east, were impassable, the water in many places being several feet deep. In Can non-row,- Westminster, the scene was the same. The water rushed with great force, not only into the cellars, but the ground floor. The Gazette office, and all the houses in that locality, were o m cpMely flooded. At Westminster Bridge great crowds collected to wit ness the scene. The piers on which the arches rest ettra completely immersed ; the water was within about half a foot of the terrace in front of the new Houses of Parliament ; and at Hungerford-market it flowed fully half way up the wharf. A vast destruction of property all along - the banks must have bleu caused by this ex traordinary And unexpected event. On Tuesday last a consiaerable degree of ex- citement was Caused in the family of a gentlenisn of pro perty, residing in the vicinity of the liq g eware-road, in consequence of the veil sudden and mysterious disap pearance tif a young lady find a female . servant froth the hotiS. information of theft' disappearance having been of the Dudiision, e ti l ut t° lo i s n s sP o e f etr time j e g i g r i et l lted throughout the c it orn w n as iun w ic itl at i various other divisions of the . force. For two,or three days Wiggins . ettrted himself. to the 11ttnost, and at length obta ined some inforreat i Oti, which in duced him, on Friday m ornin g , to sta tion himself within üblic-house. i n shepherd - street, Oxford:street, when, after waiting foil some hours , a cab wae'''diiven up to a a p house opposite. Two young females alighted - and en tered that house, and almost at the same .moment the inspector followed them ; he found • thenv to be. the identice,l persons lie was looking for, and they - eere then in the Company of a young man, a Cambridge, student, who had been waiting there to receive them. The in spector mention ed t h e nature of Ills h e ,ih eas, and ultimatel,y prevailed , upon bpth of them to get into a coach which ,h , t had called Off the stand, and they were then n drive back to the Ipansien fro m w hi c h th e y 'tad absconded. ' Tiy Young man, who it is said first became'acquainted with the girl T while sitting in a box with her at Covent-garden Theatre, . shortly afterwards quitted' the house in Shepherd-street, and from that time to the present nothing more has been heard of him. T h e you ng lady, whose areuts - reside in Ilunting,clon shire, is, it is said, heiress to a large property, and she was on a visit to her London friends, who, when the j es p e ew delivered her into their hands, presented him with 5/. for his trou ble.

Mr. Robb:see' stated distinctly that the Com mittee could not for a morasent entertain a doubt upon the subject, but that as the amoue't involved in these several claims was very large, and the partiee concerned therein very numerous, the Committee had felt that it would be a satisfaction to them to be assured of els continued aid and support of her Majesty's Government. Lord Aberdeen, after remarking, but in a very cour teous manner, that he thought the present applicatiost somewhat superfluous, aesured the deputation, in the most unequivocal terms, that the present Government would relax no efforts with the States in question to sus tain the just claims of the bondholders, and that when ever any special case should arise in which the aid of the British Government might be required, the Com mittee had only to apply to him, and their representa tions should receive immediate attention. The Committee of Spanish American bondholders have done their constituents good service by waiting upon Lord Aberdeen, and telling his Lordship plainly that they fully rely on his welking in the footsteps of Lord Palmerston, because his Lordship was the means of obtaining a settlement from the Chilian, Mexican, and Venezuelan Governments ; and his instructions to our consular representatives only . require to be rigidly en forced in order to secure justice to the English creditors of foreign States. The committees of Spanish and Portuguese bond holders will fail in their duty to those whose interests are confided to their charge, if they do sot imitate the example Set them by the South American Committee, and also wait. upon Lord Aberdeen, for the purpose of obtaining an assurance that he will act in accordance with the views of Lord rateeerston, and afford them the same efficient assistance in the advancement of their claites upon the debtor states. Knowing the sympathy which the Tory Government has always felt for Carlism in Spain, the committee of Spanish bondholders have good grounds for soliciting an interview with his Lord ship, under existing circumstances, to obtain a direct assurance that every support will be afforded to the Re gent Espartero in maintaining his Government and in suppressing the insurrection in the Basque provinces. LIMES.—A fact connected with the assignment of the list of the assets of the United States Bank, which took place some monks ago, is commented on with great indignation by some of the American papers. The assignees, in collecting the assets, refused to receive the notes of the Bank in payment, to the manifest detri ment of the note-holders. 1:;:e Bank, being bound to take its notes in payment of the debts due to it, the as signment of its claims to a third pere(2n is regarded as a paltry evasion. This is but one of the .many instances of the opprobrium which the United State's Bank has encountered, and of which fresh instances transpire °n almost every arrival. In a letter from Phila. elphia, which is published in a New York paper, the folloe.7 in g description of the effects of the failure is contained : " Persons at a distance can hardly conceive the extent of private distress which the failure of the United States ' Bank has occasioned. A continued gloom seems to have settled upon the faces of a large portion of the inhabit ants. In almost all the circles in which you visit, you hear of some poignant instance of suffering—of wealthy families suddenly reduced to poverty, of widows who have lost their all, of orphans stripped of the patrimony which a long life of labour and economy on the part of their parents had collected for them, of merchants com pelled by diminished means to relinquish their houses, and move out of town, and of labourers. robbed of the hard• earned savings of many years. Indeed, the details are melancholy ; the usual gaieties of society seem to be arrested ; and but for the absence of the customary symbols of mourning, one would be disposed to think that the whole city had experienced a great loss, that . some calamity had visited it, that a pestilence had car ried off its people, or that some great good man, univer sally beloved, had been taken away by death. Such is the general expression of sadness that you see every where. It is not difficult to realise the descriptions which historians have given of the condition of France ' after the notorious banking bubbles of John Law had . exploded." .~- -t n~~ ;$, r LIFE A SSURA CE.

GLOBE.—One by one have the journals of the Go vernment abandoned, as untenable, the strong-holds from which, when in opposition, they kept up an incessant volley of vituperaticin against the Whig Minisiers ;indeed, thee now confessedly find themselves reduced to the ex tremity of making the humiliating admission, that the ex isting Ministry obtained ofrice by false pretences. Instead of there being- irrecencileable differeaceefilecterecn the Whigs and Tories, there are, we are gravely told, really no differences worth speaking of between them. The former arc assured that they may, with very great pro priety, afford to the latter their support, in order to enable them to carry on the Government—which, be it remembered, they obtained by continually assert ing that the principles and policy of the former would inevitably sap the foundations of the Con stitution, and destroy the Altar and the Throne! An entire article in the Times of Thursday was de voted to this insidious project ; and on the following day the Standard, in an elaborate disquisition, demon strated that it would he highly impolitic, and, indeed, be manifestly unconstitutional, for the Government to interfere with the Repeal Association of Ireland. " Experience has abundantly proved," said the Stand ard, " that there are two, and but two, effectual modes cf obviating the ill effects of a seditious movement. The first is to put the sedition down with a strong hand— and this must be resorted to when immediate danger to the S:a'e is threatened. The other is to leave the evil to burn itself out—neither feeding it by concession, nor fanning it by feeble opposition, This letter is the course which a prudent and a firm Government will al ways prefer when it can be adopted with safety ; and this if, we doubt not, the course which the present Administra tion will pursue with regard to the O'Connell sedition in Ireland." In this counsel, offered to the "present Admi nistration," derive:'. from " abundant proof," the result of " experience," is found a complete vindication of the course adopts I by the late Government with respect to Mr. O'Connell and the Repeal Association. A fresh illustration is also afforded of the unprincipled opposi tion to which that Government was subjected by the Tories, bath in Parliament, and by their organs out of deotes STANDARD.—" Tire waters are ant; and the question is, ere our new rulers engineers enough to let them cff safely, ere they force a ruinous channel for themselves I 'lle waters are out, physically as well as politically ; and the greet statesmen, who, in default of cw-n, may ask us why don t we cat potatoes, will be well ants' ered by the counter-question—will they guarantee us potatoes to cat 1' We tell the party who now stand t the helm of power, that they are responsible for whdtever may ensue from their long-protracted policy." Such is the exulting tone in which an ex-Ministe rial Journal predicts the greatest calamity that can befal a people--a famine. Words cannot describe adequately all the horrors expressed in that one word ; but to announce famine as at hand, is an occasion of triumphs and even of mirth, with the Whig-Radical writer, because he assumes that for a famine the pre sent Ministers can be made responsible, It is, says he, the effect of their long-protracted policy, How long protracted F They have been in office about six seeks, and these six weeks comprehend no part of " seed time,' and but little of " harvest time," and if the six weeks comprehend both, earthly rulers are not responsible for the weather. If any Ministers can be held responsible for the threatened calamity, surely the responsibility rests upon those who ruled for deficit rail preceding its arrival, not upon the men who have occupied the swim of _Government for barely 84 weeks. But " the wish is father to the thought." We trust that there is no reason to apprehend famine or even scarcity. " The waters are not out," and if they were, thanks to the wisdom that suggested the Corn-laws, and to she firmness that maintains them, even the most unfavourable condition of the weather would not leave the country without a sufficient supply of food. Has the effect of the Corn-laws been to cause a grrat:r or less amount of corn to be raised on our own soil ? Every one must answer that the effect of these laws has been prodigiously to augment the domestic supply. Here, their, is one mode, and that the most effectual and satisfactory, in which the Corn-laws have operated to obv'ate ,famine. Let us suppose that but one-third of the corn land of England had been put out of tillage by a re peal of those laws—and the orators of the League anticipate one-half—what would be the effect of a de ficient nary est—a harvest yielding but half a crop? Why, Mr. M'Culloch, if we are not mistaken, has ehown that to supply all the corn necessary for con sumption, would employ the teliok marine of England, military end commercial. Let men judge, then, what would be the cre,t as regards famine, even supposing that prices ;sewn not rise abroad, of being driven to import three quarters? Freight would of course rise; profits would be made to rise enormously ; and this is the object of the share that the moneyed capitalists have in the present agitation. The effect of a repeal of the Corn-laws would be to at least double the price of food in a time of scarcity. COUltlEß.—That much and deplorable distress prevails in the manufacturing districts has never been zither doubted or denied, but that its extent is, and for tFe lost two years has been, wilfully exaggerated to suit the dishonest views of unprincipled and revolutionary factions is just as undoubted and un denieble. Sir Robert. Peel, whilst admitting and lamenting the existence of the real evil, with much justice, and not less moderation, excised the watihd of all the peg, and dirt foully accumulated upon it by the false Manchester quacks of Gibsons, Cobdens, &c., so as to fester and inflame it the more, by way of a heartless job at the cost of the un suspecting victim , ' These street crying tinkers, who tweet mend one hole in the kettle without at the same time preparing . two more for another day's occupation, swelled loudly end loquaciously in the Commons' House, where they had promised their ope rative hearers in the country such a terrible onset before hand, about the dreadful decrease in the : funds u' friendly or benefit societies, from the increase of claims arising from the alarming spread of destitution, a decrease of which in its amount they could know nothing, and of which they pretended to afford no authentic statistical details whatever, but rested its proof soicly on the hollow ground of their own unsupported and valueless allegations. It may be conceded at once, that 'the funds of friendly societies could not be flou rishing in a season of depressed trade and de ficient employment, and singular would it be were such a fact possible. Courteously taking for granted the veracity of statements eel defective in evidence, how ever, Sir Robert proceeded to show from real and official returns that, however benefit clubs might have experienced the pressure of the times, savings' banks exhibited little sympathetic accord with the melancholy tale on a comparison of their actual condition and pro gress with that of former years. When rudely chal lenged with having unfairly limited himself to the years most favourable to his argument—the same years fis those previously referred to by the empty declaimers themselves—he answered only by taking the wider range of years required, and still conclusively proving the same result.

LEITH.—The shipping trade here in every de partment still continues remarkably good. Besides tho large teaship which has just discharged her cargo, we have a vessel in from Virginia with 450 hhds. tobacco, the finest quality that ha s been imported for the last 30 years. The grain tra de, too, keeps up its briskness not withstanding the advanced period of the year, and the rise of the Custom-house duties. A vast number of foreign grain - laden ships are still in our docks. The duties received upon grain, for the last few days, have been chiefly upon barley and beans. Holders of bonded wheat are waiting fur another turn in the scale of duties; for, from the immense quantity cleared at the low rate, the market is so glutted that an i mme diate demand is: not wanted.

Mr. lobinsou stated that wen." MR. BANNERMAN The Horourable Captain Gordon, during his recent visit to Aberdeen, for the purpose of going through the form of reelection, stated to some of his friends. that Mr. Bannerman would be deprived of his• Commissionership, and as we were informed at the time, went so far even as to mention the Gazette in .which a successor would be named. That Gazette, and several others, appeared, without any new ap pointmcnt to Greenwich Hospital ; and, as it bad been most confidently alleged that Mr. Bannerman held his place for life, our good citizens began to imagine that the Gallant County Member had been playing off a hoax, or getting up an idle story, with the view, per -baps, of keeping peoplo from talking of a serious oppo sition to himself. It turns out, however, that ke was so far perfectly right ;—Mr. Bannerman's patent office has been taken from him and given to another. The Tories of Aberdeen profess to be very sorry for Mr. Bannerman, and very indignant at Sir R. Peel, and it would be uncharitable to charge them all with insince rity; but there can be little doubt that the quiet chuckle of the Constitutional is a truer exposition of the real feelings of a majority of them, than the lugubrious looks and sympathetic expressions they have been indulging for the last few days. Such of them as have a personal friend hip for Mr. Bannerman are no doubt grieved that he should have been so hardly dealt with, but the others are right glad to find a Whig disappointed, even if it should be at the expense of Tory honour. One thing is clear ; the Tories will have no cause to blame their chiefs for imitating the suicidal policy that the Whigs practised on their first accession to office. So far from allowing places over which they have complete control to be held by political oppo nents, they seem resolved to err rather on the oppo site side, and make a clean sweep, even where their power is questionable. Mr. Bannerman bad every reason to believe that his situation was one that could not be affected by a change of Ministry. It was con stituted by a patent, for the completion of which an expensive stamp was necessary ; the salary was not paid from the public exchequer, but from the funds of a charitable institution, and it had been held previously by at least one Member of Parliament who voted with the opposition. As yet, we are ignorant of what steps Mr. Banner maa has taken in the matter ; but, if he has not by any act of his own acquiesced in the appointment of Mr. Hope, we do not think that he should hold fast by his place, and set Sir Robert Peel at defiance. Tile case is admitted on all hands to be a new one, and the reasons that are assigned for making the Commis sionership what it was not before, purely a political place, seem very inconclusive.—Aberdeen Herald.
