" The various forms of bodily and mental weakness, incapa city, suffering, and disease, faithfully delineated in this cau tiously written and practical work, are almost unknown, gene rally misunderstood, and treated upon principles correspond. ingly erront.ous and superficial, by the present race of medical practitioners. Hence the necessity for the publication of a timely safeguard, a silent yet friendly monitor, or, where debi lity has made threatening inroads, the means of escape and the certainty of restoration. The evils to which this book adverts are extensive and identical in their secret. and hidden origin, and there are none to whom, as Parents, Guardians, Heads of Families, and especially of public Schools, is confided the care of young people, who ought to remain for a moment devoid of that information and tho.e salutary cautions this work is in tended to convey. Not. only are the most delicate forms of generative debility neglected by the family physician, but they require for their safe management the exclusive study of a life entirely abstracted from the routine of general practice, and (as in other departments of the profession) attentively concen trated in the daily and long-continued observation requisite for the correct treatment of sexual infirmities. " If we consider the topics touched upon, either in a moral or social view, we find the interests and welfare of mankind seriously involved. The effects of licentious, indiscriminate and secret indulgence in certain practices, are described with an accuracy and tome which display at once profound reflec tion and extensive practical experience."—Planet. The best of all Friends is the Professional Friend : and in no shape can he be consulted with greater safety and secresy than in " Lucas on Manly Vigour." The initiation into vicious indulgence—its progress—its results in both sexes, are given with faithful, but alas 1 for human nature, with afflicting truth. However, the Authors have not exposed the evil with out affording a remedy. It shows how " Manly Vigour" temporarily impaired, and mental and physical emasculation, produced by uncontrolled' indulgence of the passions, can be restored ; hew the sufferer, who has pined in anguish from the consequences of early indiscretion—afraid almost to encounter his fellow man, can regain the vigour of health *and moral courage. The work is written in a concise and perspicuous style, displaying how ,often fond parents are deceived by the outward physical appearance of their youthful offspring ; how the attenuation of the frame, palpitation of the heart, derange ment of the nervous system, cough, indigestion, and a train of symptoms indicative of consumption or general decay, are often ascribed to wrong causes ; and instead of being the natural re sults of congenital debility or disease, are the consequences of an alluring and pernicious practi ce , a lik e d estruct i ve to the mind and body.",—New Bell's Weekly Messenger. " Although a newspaper is not the ordinary channel for the expression of opinion upon the merits of a medical work, this remark is open to exception in any instance where the public, and not the isolated and exclusive members of the profession, are the parties addressed. Upon that which is directed to men indiscriminately, the world will form its own opinion, and will demand that medical works for public study should be devoid of that Mysterious technicality in which the science of medicine has hitherto shrouded its own ignorance.

So Mr. O'Neill was not to be Lord Mayor fir three years, twO others being preferred to him. Am Ito be bound by a promise when coming into this room? And if I am, does not this look like un infraction of the resolution passed half 'an hour ago? It is also stated in the Report that yon said you would not be badgered by me.—(Hear.) The LORD MAYOR—I did not say so. Mr. CALLAGU.tN—I take it for grand you did not say so, having mad e an assert i on to That effec ; but if you bad said it, you mistook my Cha racter ; for no one entertains more friendly feel ings towards you than I do. You have conferred great benefits on me and th© party to which I belong; and I shall never feel otherwise than grateful for those public acts, and for other acts of vurs ; but I wish to sec the Council independent of all persons. 1 tt,a not wish to see any imputation cast on the gentlemou forming the Council. 1 desire to see it pure. I you, my Lord Mayor, for the state you have raised IR ,. to, by wholesome agitation ; but wo-cannot be otherwis'y than slaves if we come into this place fettered by undtto influence.—(hear.) A great many friends of your Lord-: ship have said to me that they lamented being fettered here, and under undue influence.—(Name, name.) I de clare in the most solemn manner that such stis,ements were made to me, and members of the Coußa. have stated that by the ballot alone they could maintain the independence of the Council. The LORD MAYou—Arc you seconded in your reso lotion ? Alderman PURCELL—I second the resolution. I do not do so upon hasty consideration, for I have beeldotigaepi nion that the only way to obtain true voting in this aisetu bly would be by the ballot. I am a friend to open voting as much as any man, but whether in Westminster or at Car low, undue influence ought to be counteracted. Thisie a limited assembly, and it is the necessity of the ease alone, and not the inclination of my opinion, that makes me advocate: the vote by ballot. Whatever of oppro brium my vote this day may create, I feel I have only discharged my duty in supporting the motion made by Mr. Callaghan, as one necessary to intorm the public that we were independent, and not a mere subservient branch of the Corn Exchange.—(llear, hear.) Th, Lunn MAYOR—The reasons given by both the gentlemen resolve themselves into personal attacks upon me—the intimidation, the power over the people, - and the dictation of ;nine. I will put an end to this. I have sat too long in this choir.—(" No, no.") Gentlemen, I have prepared a notice for the election of another Lord Mayor.—(Sensation, and .‘ No, nu.") I hope my ser vices are of so much value to Ireland, although I may be mistaken in your opinion (pointing to the Conservative benches), that I must not have my acts subject to im putation. The imaginary bugbear of my influence, in deed ! What is the origin of that influence ? I cannot promote' any tuan —I cannot give him power—l cannot give him titles. My influence arises from inF community of sentiment with those I represent.—(glean) lint it is said my influence goes to intimidate. Since I sat in this chair I have avoided giving offence to any. — (Hear, . hear.) I have conceded my private political opinions ; but if this motion be carried it implies that I have not succeeded in toy object, and tke sooner l retire, the better.—(No, no.) Hit be carried I will leave this chair, and also the Corporation. Alderman PURCELL explained. He alluded to the great influence of the Repeal Association over which his Lordship presided, and the weight it gave to hint. It was with sincerity he spoke of the great services ren dered by his Lordship. Mr. Sv3IES objected to secret voting, as if one person violated his promise to a second it would reflect diugrace on the whole Corporation. He concluded by rearing that Mr. Callaghan's motion should be postponed for six months. Akiermau fit ARDIN se,:ouded thin resolution. Mr. M•Ccl,LAc►n spoke at stmt length in favour of open vot►ng. - Mr. M.`.l,oautuN contended that the jobbing the old Corporation all arose from the ballot. The 'Joao MAYOR Said that he should emphatically declare voting by ballot, in that assembly, would be the pregnant parent of jobbing. Mr. CALLAGLIAN withdrew his mation, although of his original opinion, because ho saw that the majority in the assembly were agaiwit him. Sir ./. Powun then moved that the Lord Mayor should withdraw his intended reesignation.—(llear, hear.) The moti.m being seeon d e d and carried, The Loan MAYOIt 'Said he would do sn, and he ac cordingly took back from the Town-Clerk the written resignation. The assembly adjourned. SACRED HARMONIC SOCIET Y. Last night the members of this Society commenet>l their musical season at Exeter Hall with the performangt` of Handers Oratorio The Messiah, with Mozart's addi tional accompaniments, which we see is likewise an nounced for repetition on next Friday evening. The Hail was exceedingly crowded. His Itoyil Highness the Duke of Cambridge, the Duchess of Sutherland, arid other distinguished individuals were present. Befolfe the oratorio, -" God save the Queen" was finely giien. We hare repeatedly noticed the able performance of Tike Mcsviait by the same parties, viz : —Mr. H. Phillips, Mr. Hobbs, Mr. J. A. Novello, Mr. Young, Miss Birch, tact Miss Lueombe. The solo singers, the band, and chorus of the Society deserve high praise for their execution. of Handers divine strains. Last night the performance was masterly. The beautiful and well-known passages— " Comfort ye" (Hobbs), " Rejoice greatly" (Miss Birch), " For unto us a child'' (chorus), the " Hallelujah" (cho rus), " The trumpet shall sound" (Phillips, with Har per's trumpet obligato), justly produced the most enthu siastic applause. only restrained by a, proper sense of the sacredness of the subjects, and testified that, however touch foreigners may surprise by their execution of se• solar music, the English stand foremost in the perform ance of sacred compositions. This is a fact the more. remarkable, us our cathedrals and churches present but scanty means for the perfecting of Our singers in cede - siastical music, as compared w ith t h ose of similar esta blishments in Catholic Europe ; i n which, from morn to dewy . eve— nt: M ess i a h, a§ performed by this Society, " Thu organ's swelling peal, Loud rolling meets The Hallelujahs of the choir." enhanced by the Introduction of Mozart's additional is greatly appropriate, and Vu a 'compattiments.

The following is the order determined on : The Funeral will leave Finsbury-square for the Kensal-green Cemetery, on Monday morning at eleven o'clock precisely ; all 'persons therefore who desire to accompany it, whether On foot or in couches, should be in Finsbury-square at half-past ten o'clock at the latost. Mourners on foot are requested to arrange themselves on the east side of Finsbury -square, between Sun-street and King -street ; they will be preceded by mutes, and will walk immeniately befiire the .hearse four abreast. On arriving at the Cemetery they will proceed to within a few yards of the Chapel, then halt, and arrange them selves in a double line on each side of the path through which the procession will pass. • Those mourners who prefer meeting , the funeral at the Cemetery. are requested in like manner to arrange thein selves on both sides of the path and wait its arrival. Mourners in carriages will take their places in the order of their arrival in Finsbury -square ; precedence being given to the London Mechanics' Institution, im mediately after the family and private friends of the deceased. It is necessary to remind all those who intend to take part in this ceremony, that the strictest attention should be paid to thew arrangements, and to the request of these who will carry them into effect ; so as to avoid a confusion which would be equally indecorous and painful. 59, Lincoln's inn-fields, Dec. 10, 1341.

EXTRAORDINARY ESCAPE AND FEMALE HEnorsx 1 BAYONNE, .DEc. 3.—Theke is one of the refugees who has atlast succeeded in reaching the French territory, the history of whose escape is of a romantic nature, and well illustrates the snperioriy of female courage and re solution in the hour of danger. The name of the individual alluded to is Don Eulogio Barber() Quintero. His family having been known to the President of the Provisional Government named by tlteizisur s g ec e r n e ts tar i y n u th ) e o c of V ie ity Juntai i o t r to m r e ia d , was ap pointed tepur pose of arming and defending the province of Alava, and was employed by Montes de Oca in drawii.g.up reports and other documents connected with the in tended defence of the city against the troops of the Government, but more particularly against those of Martin Zurbano. Quintero is a young man, about 25 years old, and is possessed of much intelligence, and has received a good education.' In his person he is tinder the middle size, slight and gracefully made ; but his features are expressive of intellect, and of much determination. After the resolution come to by the Junta not to defend the city against the approaching army of Rodil, Quin. tero saw that all was over ; yet he was still unwilling to fly ; and it was nut until he beheld the total change which had come over the minds of the population, and until he heard a price set on the head of the unfortunate Montes de Oca, that he felt it would be the act of a madman to await the fate which he knaw would be re served for all who had distinguished themselves so much in the insurrection as he had done. It was not, however, until after the departure of his chief from Vittoria that Quintero made an effort to escape. He set out from Vit toria by night, and gained the mountains of Guipuscoa, in the direction of Salinos. His intention was to have passed along the chain which separates Guipuscoa from Navarre, called the Sierra de Aralur, to have crept on towards Goyzueto, thence to Vert, Urdax, and finally into the French territory. After many difficulties, lie succeeded in arriving as far as Goyzueta. It was a few days after the death of Mu nagorri, and the terrible Chapelgorri, Elorrio, was hover ing about these passes. Quintero was ignorant of the incident which had taken place in the neighbourhood a short time before, and which terminated in the death of the Fuerist leader. As he was leaving Goyzueta at day break, he was discovered by one of the Chapelgorries, • and delivered up to the Chief. Prayers and entreaties were of no avail, nor yet bribes ; for who ever heard that Elorrio was turned aside front his purpose by sup plications or by money ? He was led to St. Sebastian, lodged in the citadel, and in a few. days conducted back to Vittoria; and there he remained in hopeless captivity until the night of the 21st of November. His cause had been already formed, and his trial was to come on on th e 24th, before the Military Commission. Not having been a military insurgent, and not having taken any pro minent part, as chief or l ea d er , i n t h e re b e lli on , he at first thought that the extreme penalty of the law would not be infitcted.on him. But in this hope he wit; de ceiving himself ; he was informed that there Avis but little chance of escape for an individual who had held such close relation with the chief of the rebels. Quintero had been married about a year previously to a young lady, named Juana de Areito, a native of Eybar in the province of Guipuseoa, who has not as yet com pleted her twenty-first year. She was one of those heroic young women who, in 1834, when her native town was attacked by Zabala, in the commencement of the civil war, assisted the Christino troops so materially in its defence. She was then only fourteen years old, and the service she rendered was that of placing her self on her knees in the centre of a square of soldiers, and supplying them with ammunition, filling their pouches so as to prevent a moment being lost, whilst showers of bullets were flying about her, and men fell dead on every side. When the tidings of her husband's danger reached her, she at once formed the. determination of saving, or of perishing with him whom she doated on to distraction. The cell in which Quintero was confined was small and narrow. The door was always left open, and a sentinel was placed at the entrance in order to keep the prisoner constantly in sight ; another was stationed at the outer gate, and a third kept guard at the street-door. To reach his dungeon it was necessary to pass these three doors, one of which was formed of iron bars. The prisoner had been forbidden to hold communication with any prisoner whatever ; and his wife's application to see and visit hint had been sternly refused. The poor young woman went to the prison-door several times every day with her baby in her arms, and as often returned after vain supplications for admittance, with a heart breaking in anguish. The only person allowed to enter the cell where the prisoner was confined was a young girl, who brought him his meals, and only 20 minutes were allowed for dinner and supper. The former meal was taken at mid-day, and the latter in the evening. At 7 o'clock in the evening of the 21st of November, ft young female came to the outer door of the prison, with a basket under her arm, which was partially concealed untie" a large coarse shawl flung across her shoulders ; a red handker chief was bound about her head, in the fashion of the Alavese peasant girls, and her costume was, otherwise, that of the criudas, or servant girls of 'Vittoria. She de manded permission, in the usual manner, to enter with the prisoner's supper. The sentinel at the gate referred her to the sergeant of the guard. Fortunately the com pany which had previously been on duty was changed that same day, and the general orders for their guidance referred only to the admission twice a day of the bearer of the prisoner's meals, but did not give ally specific de scription of the personal appearance of the bearer. After undergoing the coarse jests and brutal allusions of the soldiers of the guard on her selection of so advanced an hour, when night had already commenced, to visit the prisoner, she was allowed to enter, and was successively passed from one sentinel to another, until she reached the cell of the captive. By ..some awkwardness, or, more probably by design, she threw down the small iron lamp, whicfi was suspended,from the door-frame, and by means of which the soldier stationed at the entrance, which was always left open, might have a partial view of his charge. The moment they were left in darkness, and whilst the sentinel proceeded to the second gate to light the lamp, she addressed the young man,—" My beloved Eu logio, lose not a moment, throw off your coat, put on my clothes, whilst I biad this _handkerchief about your head; take this basket, in which my poor baby is asleep, and fly—fly for the love, of God ! You Nl . lll give the child to an old woman, whom you will find waiting at the Bil bao gate. Provided that you and my child are out of all danger, lam ready to suffer death in your place. Speak not a word ; every moment is precious. You only lose time by attempting . to resist or refuse, for I have come here with a determination which neither you nor any eno else can change. Farewell ! if I escape unharmed, and I do not think the Regent will shoot me for my love to my husband, we wilt meet again ; if not, Eulogio, think of me when I shall he in my grace, and love our child—the poor baby is not more than six weeks old. Hush speak not, the sentinel is here with the lamp." Quintero made an effort to change her resolution, but she would listen to no argument. lie did as she re quested, and in the course of a few minutes he had put on her gown, shawl, and handkerchief; and she wrapped herself up in his cloak. In order to prevent any suspi cion on the part of the soldiers of the gate, they re mained together the usual tim e a ll owe d f or the repast, and Eulogio then took up the basket, covered it with his shawl, and passed the first sentinel. As he was proceed ing towards the outer gate the child awoke, and to pre vent its cries from being noticed, the father began to sing, in a loud voice, an old Basque ballad. Providence however, decreed that the interruption should not be noticed, and he at length succeeded in reaching the street. lie at once proceeded to the gate indicated ; found there the old woman, whom he recog- I nised as having been his wife's nurse ; gave the child to her, and, without a moment's delay, made for the mountains. Eight days he remained wandering amongst those tremendous passes, with no clothing but his pantaloons and shirt, and his feet and hands torn by the brushwood in which he was obliged, from time to time, to conceal himself from the parties of military whom he was constantly encountering. He had not less than 24 leagues to travel before he could reach the fron tier, and his fimd, during the whole of the painful jour ney, was a morsel of bread and a draught. of water or cider, given him by the poor peasants near whose habi tations he found himself, and who, though knowing he was flying from the avenger, never once thought of be traying him. On reaching, in a state of dreadful exhaustion, the Bidassoa, he found that the left bank was occupied in every pact by the Spanish soldiers, who had even seized the boats to hinder the refugees from crossing. Being in a state of desperation he plunged into the river, care less whether he was shot or drowned. As if somesupe- nor will had decreed that the noble and heroic iet, prompted by pure conjugal lore, should not piss without its due reward, Quintero succeeded in gaining the oppo site bank, the part he had selected being fordable, the water reaching only to his middle, neither was he seen by the Spaniards. On arriving on the French territory he knelt down, and in the enthusiastic fervour of his gratitude returned thanks to Heaven for his safety. He arrived in Bay onne the day before yesterday. Up to two o'clock yesterday he had received no ac count Of his wife, and he continues, as yet, in a state of indescribable anxiety as to her fate. There can be no doubt, however, of her ultimate safety, and of her speedy reunion with the object of her love. Martin Zurbano himself could not find it in his heart to do otherwise than reward such an act of noble fidelity. The young lady who has thus distinguished herself belongs to an ancient and respectable family in Guipu s - coa. She is young, beautiful, as arc the greater part of the females of her native province, of the middle size - slight, and exquisitely formed in her person.

With the force of this prejudice on our minds, VIC with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common 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 t o the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us .with a thorough eonfidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfe 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 before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strietly,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 inva,lu abie.—Magnet. .„ The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never4ailing 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 wort; an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no liesita • tint] in saying 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„ sucth as exposure to cold, sudden v i c i ssitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly c onv p iiic m in b g ria an o d f e m z e tr d e i. - mely satisfactory. We say " satisfacto ry ," i nasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many disea ses , such as Pulmonary Consumption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the op eine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable. a termination as any other class of &diens: We do net think we go too far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing ook .u— so se Conservative Jo urn al. ful, so much wanted, so valuabl e , and so truly We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes.

POST.—The American papers received by the last steamer from Boston notice, as a remark able filet, that in the midst of the downfal of State credit and the breaking up of the bank ing system by w hi c h t h e recent history of the union is distinguished, ''the country is in a prosperous condition, and all the substantial in terests, embracing the welfitre of the masses, .are in successful and !lealthy action." Agriculture and manuflietures are represented to he both thriving —commerce equally so, for while those of the merchants who, neglecting. their legitimate pursuits to engage in the speculative enterprises which prevailed in 1535 and (3, have been swept away, or are inextricably involved, a new race have sprung up who are already carrying on "a regular, safe, and lucrative bu s i n e ss :" It is ex pected that many of those who have been crip pled for years will be emancipated from their difficulties by the operation of the bankrupt law, and that the new order will be stlengthened by the accession of "men of industry and en terprise who, having been taught a severe lesson by the experience.of the past, will observe cau tion and prudence for the future." The effect of the " downfal of State credit, and the breaking up of the banking system," to which reference is Made, has not, however, as yet, been felt in the full force that it will be in the course of a short time. The Americans, from the period at which they acquired their inde pendence, have been deemed the trustworthy customers of the mother country, and their credit in our markets has been unlimited; but the state of the exchanges proves, beyond all doubt, that the mercantile poSition of America is undergoing a melancholy change. The result of the late election for Mississippi was influenced in a material degree by a party who have de clared themselves favourable to the non-payment of the State engagements; to the robbery of the British capitalist who has lent them money for the prosecution of their public improvements, by means of which they have se cured to themselves large revenues. Michigan has sympathised largely in the finanancial sentiments of Mississippi, and the immense decline which has taken place in the value of the stocks of Illinois and Indiana is, we fear, but too certain an indication of the prevailing disposition of the electors of those two States. The anti-bond party have succeeded in returning their chosen officers, beth legislative and executive, by large majorifiee. The election turned upon this point of robbery or no robbery, and, being decided in favour of the former, the unprincipled demo cracy call it a " triumph." It is not thought that the repudiation of debt will be sanctioned by a general vote of the Le gislature, as that would be " an act-nf such out rageous dishonesty, an act so infamous in its elm meter, as to call down the scorn and execrations of the whole civilised world." It. is considered that the point aimed at will be effected upon the silent principle of inaction—by the omission on the part of the members to provide for the fitture payment of dividends to the stockholders. This conduct will be just as base as an open avowal of repudiation, quite as well understood by the w o rld at large, and the consequence of the adoption of so disgusting a course will be, and in fact is, a total annihilation of American • credit in Europe. The bonds of New York, Massachusetts, Maine, Ohio, and a few other of the States of the Union stand at a comparatively high price iii the London market, and the in terest upon them will, we dare say, be regularly paid as beretofbre, butt they are no longer the negotiable securities they were, , and hence the necessity to which the Americans are driven of sending specie for all the purposes of trade. The situation of America is precisely that of an individual who, front a non-observance of good faith towards those who have trusted hint, can ob tain no further supplies of the commodities lie needs, otherwise than upon the payment of money down. Her word, her bond, and her honour are equally out of fashion, and although the expedients of the banks may check the drain of specie fir the moment, gold must continue to flow this- way, or the foreign commerce of the Republic must continue a dead letter. Two Governors, namely, Reid, of Florida, and M'Nutt, of Mississ►ppi, have plainly an►l un equivocally told the creditors of the States that they will never be paid, and it remains to be seen how far they will be supported in that view of affairs. TITHES.—A l;entle►nan from the City called at the Treasury yesterday, where he gathered that as soon as Parliament meets there will be an inquiry into the Exchequer bill fraud; but that there is no intention to appoint any com mission to decide upon the case of the innocent holders of the forged bills. This is anything but consolatory to the parties so situated, for a Par liamentary inquiry will be sure to occupy a very long time, and then, for aught that appears to the contrary, the point elicited will be, rather how to prevent such frauds in future, than any consideration for those who have been the suf ferers by them. Hence it is clear that nothing is to be expected, either from the Treasury or from any voluntary assistance, in the way of promoting compensation, when Parliament shall assemble, in which alone the proper remedy must lie. The suspension of payment by Messrs. Rocher, Casanas, and Co., wine -merchants, was men tioned on 'Change to-day. The death of Mr. Rocher, of Oporto, is assigned as the cause, and it is said that the firm entertain hopes of ulti mately paying every creditor in full.

FOOLERY AND FASHION.—In the “ Journal of a Residence in Great Britain," by two native Indians, Nourogee and Merwangee of Bombay, which , h as b een lately published, occurs the following passage, to the opera, where the authors went to seeelative aglioni dance :—" Only think — one hundred and fifty guineas low . sto nearly every night to be paid in England to a woman to stand seat herself for a long time like a goose upon one leg, theta to throw thr, )%r from one side of one leg straight out, twirl round three or ft ' ai leg thus ex temletl,to curtsey so q • r tunes w ith the upon the ground, to spring occasionally an hour the stage to another ; all of which ' six weavers in Spits! not, on her part, occupy ;and l u inithig about did for that hour every evening, th an fields (who produce beautiful sills fur to get more money r dresses) could earn all of them, working fourteen hours every day, ii, twelve months."—We do not wonder 'at the authors' astonish ment at this extravagant foolery of our English fashion much more wou ld t h ey be surprised— not ables ; but how to say disgusted—if they e ute dancing -puppet, ctl e i r b a were told that th ose w h o l a vish i s n uc t l h i . e v i a r s h t esaurmts to o s on a canno t find it distresses of their ow single penny to relieve the While Marshal Cli • t.sel was recently at Algiers he refused several' public testimonials of sympathy wllieli were offered to lii Rozey, Lieutenant-Coblonel at a dinner given lam by M. i el of . the local .National Guard,! a toast thanking Algeria was proposed. The Marshal, in reply to it, took . occasion to observe, that if it had been impossible for him on the two occasions when he was Governor- General to develop the immense germs of prosperity which the colony possessed, it was only because the means of doing so were never placed at his disposal. " More fortunate than me in this respect," the Marshal added, " General Bugeaud, who is a man of courage, talent, and energy, will attain this object, we have every reason to believe, unless the bad will which I had rtlways• to struggle agaimt collies to neutralise his eflotts as did mine.' THE BARONETAGE.— Tile Right non. Sir Robert Peel, as Prime Minister, has signified his inten tion of receiving, on Monday next, at the Treasury Chambers, a deputation from the Committee of the Ila ronetate for Privileges, with a representation of their proceedings (approved of by general meetings), relative • to their chartered and patented rights, which have been 'confirmed by various Acts of Parliament, and subse quent Monarchs, since the Royal founder, rights and privileges of the order are clearly defined as the sixth degree of hereditary nobility. mg. , eO G .tt al n dia d t°
