The 'Magistrates and Clergy of this County have established an Instituti on of this kitirl, to be supported by Voluntary Con tributions, the object of which is to furnish the means of exist ence to those who, on account of their discharge from Prison, fou n d to be without friends, and unable to procure em plo " l ent ; such persons being frequently led, almost by ne "iti, to seek their maintenance in their former criminal Pursuits. The selection is made by the Chaplain of the House of Cor rsoeetion at Brixton, and the objects are generally young per - i t' who have expressed a desire to alter ther course of life. t • e Y are maintained, employed, and educated , ] until, by a con .

The expenses which has hitherto an d ( re of the in su rmountable impediments no longer offers e 4l ,*; ttacle, as by Captain Tayler's meritorious ineention.this eertitai,lY can form 180 harbours at . a less expense than that Ini, ea 'n by the Government Commissioners as the sum re bY the old modes for the formation of three. The; f h e construction enables this new Floating Breakwater to Par t I .„ed, and harbours Of refuge formed, on the most exposed wh er nI our coasts, where not only none at present exist, but abd none other than by this method can be constructed ; h v :lnoth water for the safe.. landing of goods and pasrengers I,r e _eamers can be ensured at all times of the tide, even at • the most exposed places. 4. , at the Government of this country will avail itself oh' the A :, means which this invention alone affords, there can be doubt. The Directors have great satisfaction in stating ! they are in active negotiation with several places of; the fjntest maritime impoi tance, and that the Admiralty, zealous he promotion and success of the undertaking, have already Canted the use of anchors and ground moorings to enable 13 a P t ain Tayler's plan to bo put in: immediate operat ion at r 'Shton, and we may fairly rely that there is scarcely a single r" in the United Kingdom which will not avail itself of the "enefit now presented, by having some sections of the break water lad down, the cost being so comparatively small and the Advantage s so great. The result to the Shareholders, on the employment of the tmpany's works and means in this meritorious cause, cannot to insure a return in a pecuniary point of view which 'will pc,eed the most sanguine expectations.

PAR R'S LIFE PILLS. IMPORTANT CAUTION ! It has been discovered that vile attempts had been made, and still are made, to substitute base imitations for the genuine Medicine; in proof of which, attention is directed to the fol lowing a dvertisement , which appeared in the " Nottingham Review," of January 22, 11441 : PUBLI,C ACKNOWLEDGMENT. " I, the undersigned John Cubley, late of Derby, but now of the town of Nottingham, heretofore a schoolmaster, but now out of employment, do hereby acknowledge that I have lately got compounded some pills, which I have sold to dif ferent persons as OLD PARR'S LIFE PILLS, by repre senting that I had purchased the recipe for that celebrated me dicine : such representation was, however, entirely fake, and the proprietors of the genuine Old Parr's Life Pills have com menced legal proceedings against me for the above fraud. But I, having expressed sorrow and contrition, and given up to them the names and addresses of each person to whom I have sold any of such pills, as well as of the druggi4ts who com pounded the same, and agreed to make this public apology, and pay all expenses, including this Advertisement, the Pro prietors have kindly consented to forego such legal proceed ings. I do, therefore, declare my shame and sorrow for having committed surh an imposition on the public, and such a fraud on the Proprietors of Ohl Parr's Life Pills, and further express my acknowledgments for their lenity. " JOHN CUBLEY. " Dated this 28th day of Jan. 1841. ft " Witness—H. B. Campbell, solicitor, Nottingham. " In order, therefore, to protect , the public from such imita tions, the Hon. Commissioners of Stamps have ordered " Parr 's Life Pills," to be engraved on the Government Stamp, in white letters on a r-d ground, attached to each box, without which none are genuine, and to imitate which is felony.

THE WEATHER.—The accounts from all parts of the country are extremely favourable, and the farmers entertain strong hopes that, in most places, the land will soon be in a fit state for sowing the winter wheat. For the last week the weather in the metropolis has been beautiful. The thermometer for som e d ays, h as re mained steady at about 30.50 degrees, with every appear ance of a continuance. The Right Hon. Sir Robert Gordon leaves town at the close of the week for Vienna. We hear on all sides that men are entering fast for the Royal Navy. The Ocean, at Sheerness, is full. All the ships in commission at home and abroad will be filled up to the war complement chiefly with landsmen, but will answer the purpose very well. We shall then probably make, or be prepared to make, a demonstration to compel the Americans to a settlement of all questions, and afterwards proceed to disarm to the old pEace esta blishment.—Naval and Military Gazette. EASTBOURNE.—INCENDIARY FIRE.--Abollt half past five o'clock on Saturday last, Oct. 30, a fire was discovered in an oat-stack on the farm of Mr. Arkcoll, of Langley, which there is very strong ground for be lieving was the wor k of a vill anous incendiary. Three other stacks were contiguous, one of them a large wheat stack, all of which would, no doubt, have been destroyed, had the fire not been most fortunately discovered by some workmen on the spot, by whose promptitude the flames were extinguished without doing much damage.— Sussex Express.

QPENCER'S CELEBRATED CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE.—The thousands of individuals who have had the pleasure of using Spencer's Chinese Liquid Hair Dye, pronounce it to be the only Dye extant which will effectually change, in afew minutes, red or grey hair to a dark brown or black, and it can be proved incontestably that it is the safest dye in its use that ever was prepared. Red or grey hair, whiskers, eyebrows, moustaches, &c., are changed with out trouble, by simply using a comb wetted with the liquid; one application will produce a pleasing and a permanent change. The colour it imparts to the hair can nexer be discovered to' have been effected by dye , it being se perfectly natural, and neither washing, perspiration, or anything will in the least fade or affect the colour produced. Hundreds of ladies who wore false hair, because their own became grey, wear now their own. Also, thousands of gentlemen who had grey or red whiskers, which was a great disfigurement, have become quite (lark from the use of SPENCER'S CHINESE LIQUID HAIR DYE. Any lady or gentleman may dye their Hair with ease and secrecy in a few minutes without trouble. Price 3s. 6d., 65., and 10s. per bottle.

Solomons' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses ; the astonishing relief they afford to imperfect vision gives them the decided preference to every other kind of Lens —the clearness of the transparency brings every object very distinct, and enables individuals to view the most minute par ticle with perfect accuracy. They are particularly pleasant by candle light, as they appear cooling to the sight, and soften bright and brilliant lights : James Blundell, Esq., M.D., 1, Great George-street, West- minster.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many disease:, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is DO member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of seY.ne disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tapes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred chracter is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the dis astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London. Country Patients are requested to be as minute as possible in the detail of their cases—as to the duration of the complaint, thP symptoms, age, general habits of living, and occupation in life of the party ; the communication must be accompanied by the usual Cousultation Fee of il., without which no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all cases, the mot• secrecy may he relied on. ✓ru PRICES OF CA NAL,DOCX,ASSUR ANCE COMPANY SHARKS, &c. &c. &c.

The fast-sailing packet-ship England, Captain 'Waite, arrived in our port this evening, after a speedy passage of nineteen days and a half. By her we have been put in possession of New York papers to the 20th ult. Matters bad assumed a quiet appearance in the political world. The M'Leod affair had almost ceased to be men tioned, and those journals disposed to wage a wordy war with England were looking abroad for subjects of quarrel on which to vent their spleen. Some doubtful information, brought from Maracaibo, had afforded food for a para graph, stating that the Venezuela territory had been invaded by British troops; and rumours were afloat of our evil intentions against Cuba. Little or no reliance was, however, placed on the latter report. The Money Market, according to the latest accounts, exhibited some variation, and had closed rather heavily. Cotton was also dull, but Flour was very firm, with a tendency to advance. The following extracts contain all that is worthy of notice : REPORT OF THE APPRAISERS IN THE MAT TER OF THE ASSIGNMENT OF THE BANK OF THE UNITED STATES. To the Honourable Court of Common Pleas for the City and County of Philadelphia. The undersigned appraisers, appointed by th'i Ho nourable Court to apppraise the estate and effects as signed by the President, Directors, and Company of the Bank of the United States, to James Dunlap, Mordecai D. Lewis, Samuel W. Jones, Robert L. Pitfield, and Robert Howell, in trust, &c., on the Ist day of May, 1841, do respectfully report : That after having respectively taken oaths or affirma tions before the proper authority to discharge our duties with fidelity, we forthwith proceeded to make an ap praisement of the estate and effects assigned as afore said, according to the best of our judgments respectively.

The Prince de Joinville, and suite, arrived in this city from the Falls, last evening, and took lodgings at the American. The whole party left in the Columbus, this morning. The party will tarry a day or so at Cleveland, De troit, Green Bay, and then proceed to St. Louis via Prairie de Chien. Taking the Ohio river, they will re turn to the seaboard by the way of Pittsburg and the interior towns of Pennsylvania.—Bufralo Com. Advertiser. The Albany Argus of Saturday says:—" We were in error yesterday in saying that M'Leod passed through this city on Thursday, on his way to Boston, via Hud son., He came no further than Schenectady, taking the cars from that place to Ballston, and no doubt thence to Canada." But the Boston Transcript says, that M'Leod actually embarked on board the steamer Acadia, which is confirmed through Mr. Harnden's express. No less than one hundred and twelve men were recently put on trial in Ogle County, Illinois, on an indictment for murder. The charge was for having killed a couple of notorious miscreants named Dris coll, who set all law at defiance, and had actually committed several murders as well as other enormous crimes, and managed by means of their numbers and of the wilderness in which they carried on their de predations, to escape the reach of the Civil Magistracy. The entire population of the country had been obliged, in self defence, to turn out and rid .themselves of the . nuisance— a nuisance that had placed itself beyond the pale of the law, and made itself intolerable to the suf ferers. They did turn out, and probably inflicted sum mary punishment upon the offenders.—We doubt not that the Driscolls were put to death by their hands, and much as such an act must be lamented, we are not quite certain that under the circumstances of this case, that it should be put down among the ordinary enor mities denominated Lynch Law. In such a part of the country, and in such a state of society, it is difficult to pronounce judgment against the accused. At all events, the Jury acquitted the prisoners without hesitation. - Time 5d short time since was a mere desert, should have alrQady become a subject of dispute. COMMERCIAL NEWS. _ NEW YORK MONEY MARKET, OCT 18.' There was a fair business done to-day at the Stock Exchange, and a good deal of animation at the com mencement of sales, but the market closed rather heavily, and without important change in prices, with the . excep-. tion of United States and Harlem Railroad. The former sold at 4 per cent. cash, being 1-2 per cent. below any former sales, and brio sale !of 25 shares for 1 1-2 sellers 12 months. Harlem declined 1 3-4 from last sales,—so much for the late report of the Investigating Committee. Exchange on Philadelphia, 2, 7-8 a 3; do: Baltimore, 2 1-8 a 2 1-4. In Foreign Exchange there have been no transactions of importance. The Cotton market is very dull. There have been no sales worthy of notice. In the Flour market there seems to be more firmness, and prices have an upward tendency, though the sales have been small. We quote Genesee and Ohio at $5,871 1 1 a 6,00 ; Michi g an $5,87-1 ; Troy, $5,621 a 87i-; Southern Flour is held firmly at $6,25 a 6,50 ; a cargo of Northern Corn sold for 68 measure, for an eastern market ; 1,000 bushels Rye, 66 cents. delivered, 65 cents. offered at the boat. The market for Ashes is very dull, .and prices of Pots now range a little lower than previous quotations. Neithr is there much doing in Coffee or Sugar, and the Provision market is very inactive On the whole, this has been a remarkably dull day for all kinds of business. b 6 seen by an advertisement from the State Comptroller that on and after Monday next, the bills of the Commercial Bank (being a Safety Fund Bank) will be redeemed in Albany at their p r at value. They may' 'no* be sold in the street at a tritliqg 'discount. The Newark Daily Advertiser of Saiurday last, says —We are authorised to say, that Messrs. E. R. Biddle and Edwin - Lord, President and Vice-President of the -Morris Canal and Banking Company, were reruoved from office yesterday by a vote. of the Board of Directors. We also understand that . ' their successors have not yet been appointed. 13. P. /IL —The transactions at the Stock Exchange were quite limited, with in most descriptions a downward tendency, a few shares United States Bank sold at 44 and finally closed- at 3 a 4 ; 94 shares Mechanics Bank sold at 24 ; Dr a ft s on N ew York at 102 15-16, and after the board, #l,OOO U. S. Bank notes at 56i ; Cambden and Amboy closed at 80 a'Bs ; Vickburg, 3 a 31. A carpenter's shop and stable on Vine between Schuylkill 6th and 7th streets was destroyed by fire on Sunday night about ten o'clock. I see that one or two of the morning papers of this day contain a report of the appraisers of the property assigned by the United States Bank in trust to James Dunlap and others ; whether this has caused a decline in the price of the stock of not, I cannot say; you will see above that the price fell full o n e dollar a share.

We are informed by Captain Waite, of th e b r i g E mma , arrived yesterday from Maracaibo, that previous to his departure considerable excitement existed, in conse quence of some English forces having crossed th e li no which separated British Guiana from Venezuela, and erected a fort or block-house on the Venezuelan terri tory. An angry correspondence has, in consequence, passed between the officials of the tw o G overnments. We give this information as it reac h e d us. We in cline, however, to think that th e li ne b etween Guiana and the Venezuelan territory has never been traced with any accuracy, and on the whole, it strikes us as some what singular that a portion of country which at least a THE MINISTRY. If our readers derive no instruction from the following account of the late change of the Bri tish Cabinet, addressed by a Turkish Effendi in London, to a friend at Constantinople, they will at least be amused by it. The writer is said to he a poet and a man of letters; and, judging from the following specimen of his style, an autobio graphical diary of his residence in England, would make the fortune of a Londonbookseper:— " London, sth Regieb. •. " On the second of the present moon, the pillars of state (Ministers) and the illustrious by birth of the Eng lish nation were convoked by superior order to delibe• rate upon certain State matters, and to lend the ear of attention to a speech from the Queen of these realms, uttered . through the mouth of a high functionary, deputed to act as the trumpet of Majesty. This speech contained excellent matter, and evinced exceeding solicitude for the lionour and welfare of the people. But many of the illustrious by birth, envying the holders of power, covet:. ing the good things resulting therefrom, and having many needy tribesmen claimants for Pachalics and other well retributed offices, turned aside the cheek of content, and displayed great impatience during the read ing. Out of deference, however, to Majesty, they withheld the hand of opposition, and placed the lock 'of discretion upon ;their lips, until the echo of authority was silent. But when the principal Vizir (Melboorn Mushir) proposed that he should be empowered ,to return a dutiful and submissive acknow ledgment, up rose Ripoon Bey, an ex-Vizir (whose name signifies luire' with us), and 70 or more souls, crying out discourteous, yok, yok' (no, no). We have eaten your filth long enough. You would fain give all our corn to weavers an mechanics, that we may be reduced to live on alms. That is a bad speech ! we can make a better. You are subverters, faithless men. Go out, go out!' _ _ " Thereupon the aforesaid Vizir displayed unbounded astonishment. Finding, however, that numbers were against him, and that the wand of authority was fast gliding from his fingers, he exclaimed in doleful tones, Oh illustrious by birth. This is a conduct not to be found on record. Is the imperial will mere dirt in your eyes ? But the sword of strength is in your hands. Smite ! Alas ! reason in the brain of the hungry is as a light skiff tossed amid troubled waters. Listen. I and the other Vizirs, my colleagues, will only hold the rud der until it shall please our Sovereign Mistress, upon whom be the blessings of increase, to appoint new steers men. We are your sacrifice,' " Upon this arose an incredible confusion of tongues. Some friends cried out, aferin, aferin, (bravo) dinky (hear), and door' (stay); but their voices were drowned by the outcries of opponents, who seditiously vociferated, Away, away, you bray like donkeys mumbling tough thistles. We will not listen to your rigmarole. We place no more confidence in your words than in rotten planks. Begone! the sooner the better. You arc spit upon.' Thereat the illustrious by birth separated tu multuously. " Intelligence of these unlooked-for occurrences having been conveyed to the ear of Majesty, the royal brow was clouded. But the Queen having pondered briefly, de spatched Tatars for Peel Bey, a man practised in state matters, cunning in council, expert in speech, and chief of a numerous sect called Toorees, or Preservers. To this sect belong the whole' of the English Ullernah and ex pounders of sacred books, most of the illustrious by birth, and a preponderance of people holding land by descent, or places where nothing is done, much gained, and more wanted (query sinecures)—not to mention" the Seraskier (commander-in-chief), and many genera and officers famous in battle by laud and sea — a for midable array. " This sect is therefore very powerful, and has acquired its second name from its adherence to ancient preju dices, its hoarding much corn in granaries, and its oppo sition to all innovations. One of its principal dogmas consists in asserting that all benefits conferred by others are grievous evils, and that all men aro the sons and grandsons of asses who are not of their kin. This is not accordant with reason, but it is advantageous to persons. The Persian Suffites believe that all things are good, since they proceed from the Almighty--the English Preservers, when not in office, declare that all things are bad, because they do not emanate from th emse l ves. In my small wisdom, this is intensely selfish and profane. " Well, this Peel Bey having arrayed himself in the garb of humility, and placed beneath his brea s t cover a list of Vizirs and other functionaries, all eager for the cup of enjoyment , hastily proceed e d to t h e foot of the t h ron e, where, upon being commanded to assume power, he dropped the eyelid of feigned re l uctance, and replied coyly, that he only consented to abandon the violet bed of privacy, and to tread the thorny path of grandeur, in order to prove his de vo ti on to the Imperial person, his disinterested attachment to religion and corn, and his ardent desire to sav e th e vessel of State from being ship- wrecked by unskilful ma r i ners . W hereupon the Queen said,. Peki (good), thy f ace i s w hi tened, ' and with sor rowful heart directed the nishans (insignia) of office to be taken from the bosoms of ancient and well-loved ser vants, and to be suspended round the necks of the Pre servers. "Thereat Peel Vizir, the illustrious by birth, and the Ullernah, gave loose to the mirth of satisfaction, and the dismissed Vivirs packed up their chattels and withdrew into privacy, there to chew the cud of retrospection—a sour repast. " In the meanwhile, Peel Vizir exemplified one of ti e tenets of the Preservers, by an act utterly discordant with our notions of decency and submission to the imp'- rial will. Fearing lest the female intimates and all to su perior attendants of Majesty might brecci a intrigues his disparagement, and pour the bitter l o eod f th av e e r r o s ) io a n l into the Queen's ears, he (Peel Vizir) declared harem to be harf (an enemy's countryh)e, and , _ Ataabain the principal Odaliks, attached to should t be turned out (ante chamber) and inward apartments,insisted that tribes. of the illustrious by birth neck and crop, and replaced bthyaontdheortshebie.lportenrgvetros.the waxed inwardly wrath, " At this the beautiful Ci rm il certainan bei nusages, Tin o n e ss v which e ! this bold demand was but having sworn to conform Imperial.. Majesty smothered. the nerating oaths, f u o nded t , o a, bitter potion. and again said, -r flame of just resentment beneath the mantle of endur ance, melon-waisted, were driven There upon the weeping Odaliks—some old—some young some c ypress-formed—someforth from the mansion of delight, and compelled to seek shelter beneath other wings, and the harem, being sup plied with fresh inmates, was declared no longer harf. Thus matters stand at present in this land. M "Now, two or three cone - iops forcibly strike:if upon the drum of my intent 'ee. Firth, it ill, evident that Melboorn Pacha consult the court astrologer, 4- functionary must b e the grandfather ' oh mongers, and merits condi n rrn punishment, for selected an unpropitious day for the utterance of the imperial wands. Secondly, it is clear that the illus trious by birth and other Preservers, mast woefully neg lect the arts of c u lti va ti on , or that they must be most egregious consumers of provender, if they dread iest the giving of sufficient corn to fill the stomachs of the , poor should cause starvation to themselves. Thirdly, how much more enviable is the majesty of the Padishah, slur Omnipotent master, with whom be perpetual glory, thau that of the Queen of this coal breeding people. Instant death would be the just lot of him who should venture to raise the eye of observation upon any person inhabiting the privileged portion of the imperial abode. And as to those who would attempt to smother the royal words with contemptuous ashes, or to treat the Vizirs, as un clean curlers treat catskins, by turning them inside. out, Allah ! allah ! my heart exchanges place with my mouth, at the hare idea of their destiny. Remember me ip your prayers." SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS FROil Tilt DAILY PAPERS or YESTERDAY GLOBE.--Aeother attempt is, it seems, to be made, by the appointment of a fresh Commission, to endeavour to reform that reproach to our age and na tion,• the Court of Chancery. The object of this Commission is " to examine into the forms and modes of proceeding in the Courts of Equity, with a. view of rendering the system less cumbrous, and the progress of a suit less tedious and ex pensive." The very appointment of such a commission is matter of satisfaction. It admits the existence of a " cumbrous" and " expensive" system of jurisprudence, rendeting the progress of a suit " tedious," and the amount of costs incurred by the litigants ruinous to most—oppressive to all. " A Chancery suit has become the object of dread and horror. Its very name is only another form of expression for delay, carried beyond the bounds of human endurance—for expense, which none but the most wealthy can sustain—for a con stantly craving monster, by whose maw the amount of the property in dispute, be it personal or real, is gene rally devoured, so that if the worn-out suitors have not quitted life before the judgment of the Court is pro nounced, they have long since abandoned hope of advantage from the decision." In most cases, the ori ginal parties have passed away from the anxieties of time ere the cause becomes ripe ` for judgment, leaving to their heirs the certain regret that their predecessors took the most effectual means to diminish their substance, even though by so doing they antici pated the natural period at which they would, without such an auxiliary, have been placed in possession of what is left. "The Courts of Equity," says a Tory Contemporary, who converts the appointment of the commission into an occasion for eulogizing Sir It. Peel as a Reformer—" The Courts of Equity are now practically closed against all the people, except where objects of very great value are concerned, and prao tically closed against the less wealthy, whatever may be the object. If the Courts of Equity are good for anything, it is a good confined to the wealthy ; and these Courts are often a positiv . e . evil to the poor, dragged within their meshes, without the power either to defend themselves when enthralled, or to escape from the thraldom." We are sceptics as to any practical reform being effected by this much-vaunted appointment of a com mission ; and must therefore withhold our plaudits from the Premier, until its report, making known its plans for reforming the Court of Chancery, be published. STAMM RD.—The charge against Sir Robert Peel is no longer that he postponed the exposition of his intended financial arrang ements ; that is a charge -which cannot be maint a i ne d amid the proofs afforded by every day's events, that any financial plan prepared in October must have been prepared in ignorance of the demands upon the public purse, and of the strength of the existing sources of revenue. The shape that the accusation now takes is somewhat different. We quote the Morning Chronicle : " The most criminal irfpect of their delay was its heartless disregard of the condition of suffering mil lions. They evaded and postponed, and have the desperate hope of escaping the great question by which the nation is agitated. They leave the peo ple to face the horrors of the coming winter, with trade embarrassed and declining ; with a harvest so bad that prices are kept down by the sale of corn scarcely fit to thicken hog's wash; with bread 40 per cent. dearer than across the Channel ; with the prospect of famine producing the mockery of open ports when the frost shall have locked up those from which supplies should come ; they perpetrate this crime, because what intelli gence and desire of popular favour exist amongst them, are overborne by the sinister interest of a rapacious and haughty monopolist class." Divested of that vebemeat eloquence in which it is clothed, the charge here brought against Sir Robert Peel and his colleagues amounts to this, and no more— that they did not provide some remedy against the dis tresses threatened by the approaching winter. Now what remedy, we ask, was it in their power to apply ? The adoption of the rejected scheme of the late Administration ? Why, this would have been to augmeat greatly the distress, as far n it can be said to arise from ti e high price of corn. The markets are now, happily, declining ; but very lately the duty payable on foreig n corn was so much less than the Bs. duty, which the Whig-Radical scheme would impose, that it is calculated there are fisur millions of quarters of foreign corn in the country. The corn is here—much the greater part of it imported at a duty of one shilling, and it surely matters nothing to those who are to consume it at what time it was imported. The consumer has it at a Continental price, increased only by a nominal duty—has it not only to purchase on these cheap terms, but to depress the price of grain of home growth. As to what our Contemporary says of the bad quality of English corn, we cannot forget a similar complaint last year from the same quarter, and our answer to it ; which was simply a reference to the bills of mortality, in proof that the corn was not unwholesome. COURIER.—The objection to Whig Commissions was their expensiveness, and the facilities they afforded for jobbing ; neither of these can apply to the Commis sions or Commissioners emanating- from the present Government. And in this consists the main difference as regards the question of Commissionerships between its conduct and that of its predecessor. We do not mean to say, as we do not think, that the public money is uselessly laid out in the collection and ar rangement of trc details dislike a the system, which and facts either devolved or pertinent, but the important duty upon paid Commissioners, mere temporary officials, devoid of position and responsibi lity, and therefore affording the Legislature no suffi cient guarantee either for the correctness or impartiality of their reports. But the case before us evinces a completely different spirit. \k ed 'e n a e r n e ts_ toh n a o ve s no sa la ried for com missioners—no gapings for office and it s emolu ments piaue. amo ß ng u s t t tb h u u se ng iu ry wbm du the nati on con fid es -- men ep of experience, judgment, and tried abilities—have been appointed to conduct the investigation into the respective departments named ; and upon their reports and suggestions the most cautious need not scruple to act. From them we anticipate many valuable improve ments. It is not the saving of expense, for ex ample, in the collection of the revenue—one of the objects of the inquiry instituted by Sir Robert Peel —which we so much value, as the removal of all harassing, needless restrictions, and the substitu tion, for the entangled, clumsy complications which now prevail in many of the minor departments con nected with the Custom-house, of one simple, uniform system. That th ere may b e a cons id era bl e sa ving of expense, we do not deny-..although upon that point we are not very sanguine —but that commercial operation s , and those engaged in them, will be relieved fromf cumbersome instructions ; and that the mo de ° col lecting the revenue by being simplified, wi ll to lighten its pressure, we fully expect :el con fidencecomprehen- siveness we repose in the' acuteness a the hope that siveness of the Commissioners inspires ectations.

FERRERS, A ROMANCE OF THE REIGN OF GEORGE IL—The scene of this new work of fiction, which exhibits the events that characterised the life of Lawrence, Earl Ferrers, from his accession to title until his miserable end, is partly in London during the me morable earthquakes, and partly at Stanton llarold,' the family seat in Leicestershire. In incident and adven ture the forthcoming romance is understood to be un usually rich, while, among the dramatis persoa, are in troduced the celebrated Selina, Countess of Huntingdon, George Whitfield, the great preacher of the Methodists, and Lady Suffolk, the favourite of George ll.—per personages entirely new in historical novels. • WATCHMEN WANT WATCHING.--4t is said in commenting on the late fire tthhaetTthime Times, in of the great insurance induced them to charge a higher rate of in suranceuildings in which a private watchman is those left without any such safeguard ! baokytffie pt c a eesh writer has ano for feo i r nrb, ---_.~ 01 , .rr 1• 1- C' fe c - of
