VICISSITUDES OF THE SEASON.—It is a well known fact, that during the few past years the changes of tha weather, and the alterations of the season, have been most sudden and unequal. Variations of this nature are, of necessity, extremely trying to the constitution; and there is no part more exposed to their effects than the skin —that delicate and finely-formed portion of our frame ; the sudden transitions from heat to cold, from moist to dry, &c. being calculated, in a most ine3nvenient degree, to produce those freckles, marks, and eruptions, which are so hostile and injurious to beauty. The fortunate discovery of Rowland's Kilydor, and the ample proof of its virtues afforded by long experience, evince that it is admirably adapted to beautify and preserve the skin fresh and unim paired—amid the most trying vicissitudes of the season and the weather.

INDISTINCT VISION.—It behoves all who value the importance of that wonderful piece of "divine mecha nism,"• the Eye, to adopt every means to strengthen and preserve it, particularly when those means are within reach, and the results front their application are both delightful and immediately felt. E. Solomons and Co., Opticians, &c., (36, Old Band-street, and 1, Old Jewry, Cheapsitle), have effected an improvement in Spectacles, for which they have secured a " patent," and the strict examina tion of scientific observers, as well as the all-powerful test of perso nal experience, have established their superiorexcellence. On their application to impaired vision their effects are boils delightful and instantaneous, conveying at once a refreshing coolness to the Eye, and rendering the most minute objects perfectly distinct, either by day or candle-light ; in short, their superior powers and freedom front the injurious properties of glasses, ordinarily sold, have secured fur them thu powerful recommendation of j(Sir Brodie, Bart., F.R.5.. ; Sir Anthony Carlisle, F.lt.

Being in no way connected with any other houses in Lon don, and having occasion to guard the public against mistakes, which a similarity of names (aided by various schemes that are re. sorted to by empirics) have in several instances occasioned severe disappointment to the incautious, they call particular attention to the following address-36, Old Bond.street, and 1, Old Jewry, City. A M. Lambert, from the environs of Paris, hav ing business a few mornings ago at the Halle, observed that he was constantly followed by a little gamin, and at last felt a slight pull at his pocket. On putting his hand in he discovered that his snuff-box was gone. He imme diately went in search of the boy, whom he suspected of being the thief, and came up with him at the gateway of a a house in the Rue Montmartre, where a milkwoman had ranged her pails and cans. M. Lambert collared the boy, and accused him of the theft, which he with undaunted countenance denied, and insisted upon being immediately searched. This was done, but no snuff-box discovered. M. Lambert, convinced that he had been in error, not only made excuses to the boy, but induced him, with mu c h ap parent difficulty, to accept a piece of sf, as a c om p ensat i on for the imputation which had been cast upon Lim. The lad went away. M. Lambert remained some little time longer, converting wi , h the milkwoman on the incident. By this time she had nearly emptied one of her pails, when at the bottom she raked u p the lost snuff-box, which t t h he is time the vagabond had contrived to slip into it ; but by the scamp was too . far off to be again caught. It is stated that during the late severe frost, a gentleman at \Vhitcombe, Gloucestershire, bad a rick of barley attacked and plundered by a large number of rooks, and such was the boldness of the depredators, that nearly one-third of the contents was carried off Wore they could be forced to relinquish the attack. COURT OF SEWERS OF WEST MINSTER AND PARTS OF MIDDLESEX. A Court of Stwers for the City of Westminster and the Lih.3.ties thereof, was yester d ay h e ld a t the Office of the Commissioners, Greek -street, Soho, at twelve k, 'ward Willoughby, Esq ,in the Chair. Minutes of the pr , ceedinis of the last Ordinary CJurt we. e read and e , ..pfirnit d. M. LESLIE complained of the waste, of time occatConed by tLe :cAding of thwe parts of the minutes which relat, d to the ordinvy tu of the Court. Air. W. 13Eacn—There are some people who waste tie time of the Court much more by long speeches, which might advantageothly be c.mdensed. The minutes must be read as part of the business of the Court. Mr. LESLIE thought that all orders of course might be entered in a book, ai.el the parties all called up and told by the Chairman as to whether their applications were granted ; and on the minutes it might be entered—" various orders were made, fur which see order book." Mr. AIIEY thought great difficulty would arse unless the minutes were read as at presert. They would then 13.3 trusting entirely to the clerk for the correctnes; of the record of their proceedings. If, however, any plan could bo devised to save time, he should be happy to accede to it. Mr. LESLIE thought the having those orders entered in a tabular form, and signed by the Chairman, thus making those ordurs a record of the Court, would cove at least an hour on the first day, and half an hour in reading the mi. nu:es. Me. W. BEACII thought it was of great importance that the minutes should be read for confirmation. Mr. ADEY proposA that the minutes should henceforth be laid on the table, and if their correctness were certified by th,., el,'rk, unless that correctness were impugned during_ the cuurse of the day, they should stand confirmed. The e was little use in reading them as they were now read. The minutes of the proceedings of the Special. Court, held for tr . i.ing the travterses for Chal6ca .119Apital, vrero thcn read and confirmed. The CHAIRMAN then sigfied cheques for the payment of va:ious tradesmen's bilk. An application was made by Mr. BICKNRLL, the Soli citor for Cheleca hospital, for permission to have a copy of the short-hand writer's notes at his own expense. Mr. Anew mAted that the application be granted. Mr. LESLIE said, the Court had never ordered the em ploy ment of a short-hand writer ; he was employed by the Chairman, and the Court had nothing to do with him. Mr. ADEY sail the Solicitor having been engaged by ;he Court to condact the cue—the Silcitor, if they thought proper, might employ him and charge for him in the bill. Mr. BEACH would suggest that Mr. Bicknell be referred ,o the short-hand writcr himself. Captain BAGUE thought the application must fall to the ground, as the Gina knew nothing of tha employment of a short-hand writer. Mr. LESLIE had objected to the employment of the Solioitor, and if any one wished to have the short-hand w►iter's notes, they might go to him and obtain them. Mr. ADEY said, if the question had been whether the Chairman was authorised to employ a short-band writer or not, these observations would be well founded ; but the question was, whether Mr. ilieknell might apply to the short-hand writer for his notes. Mr. LESLIE moved as an amendment, that as the Court hid not ordered the employment of the short-hand writer Mr. B:cknell be referred to that gentleman. Captain BaouE seconded it, and it was carried unani mously. Copt. BAGUS complained of the want of accommodation for the Commissioners on Friday last, and hoped that un the next occasion the inconveniences of which he corn phined would be remedied. Mr. Army thought, unless it was intended to exclude reporters and the public, it would be better to leave the arrangements entirely in the hands of the Chairman. Tae room was a very small one, end if it were possible to point out a plan for atKirding greater accommodation he was convinced it would be cheerfully adopted. The Court then proceeded to hear various petitions for new Sewers. Mr. Lr_s►.lF again drew the attention of the Court to the waste of time occasioned by going at length into these matters of course. A communication was read from Messrs. Delmar and Wynn, relative to the manner in which the Kensington Sewers would be affected by the propo►ed West London Railway. A communication was read from Mr. W. Wickens, of Hammersmith, reques.ing the co-operation of the Commi sioaers in procuring the erection of additional street conve- niences. A complaint as to the removal of the pavement in the Ilarseferry-road, was ordered to be referred to the Com missioners of Paving. A communication was read from the Solicitors, stating that they had met the Solicitors of the different parishes. and that three of them had consented at first to a special case to obtain the opinion of the Court as to the liability of the churches to be rated, but the two others had entirely dissented, stating that, even if liable to be rated, the Corn missioners had no power with which they could enforce the _noel. on velrzl , th , others bad disagreed ti the state meet of any special case. Ile also reported .tbe dinrcnt steps which had been taken in the various suits in which Commissioners are engaged, and enclosed forms of subi.ce sa for the enforcing the attendance of the witnes ses oir the trial of the traverse on Friday next. Mr. Any moved the postponement of the business re lating to the churches to this day fortnight. Captain BAGUE seconded the motion, which was agreed to unanimously. Mr. LESLIE said that in the case of Medley and Pri chard, he should object to the payment of any money, and should like his amendment to be placed on the busi ness paper, in order to ensure a full attendance. Blank subpceaas for summoning witnesses in the tra verse case on Friday next were then signed. A Report of the Solicitors was then read, in which they gave it as their opinion that it was not necessary to ti .e legality of warrants, that the collector who asked for them should be first sworn ; neither was it necessary that in every case a separate warrant should be issued for each defaulter. Mr. LESLIE moved that the opinion he printed and cir culated among the Commissioners; and while on his legs he would remind the Court that on last Friday there were various matters inserted in the business paper, without any order of the Court. The second matter on the paper was to sign a decree. On inquiry he found it was tha Chairman's order; and on pressing the Chairman, he found it was Mr. Ogle's order. Now, be thought the Commissioners ought to conduct the business of the Cr.ur t, and not Mr. Ogle, or the Chairman. M. Apes , rose to order. The matter was not now be fore the Court. lie appealed to the Chairman. The CHAIRMAN decided that Mr. Leslie was not in order in the observations be was making. The question was then put and carried. Mr. T. DYER thought the matter alluded to by Mr. Leslie ought now to be investigated, as it was a matter of privilege Ile also had a complaint to make relating to privilege. The Court before the last was summoned ape daily to sign a precept ; but it subsvquen:ly took up a second question, and decided on it in a manner which La considered calculated to damage the Court in public opinion. Mr. LESLIE had given notice to the Solicitors that he doubted their law, and that it was his intention, after the traverse Jury had delivered their verdict, to draw tbo atten tion of his brother Commissioners to the manner in which he conceived they were being misled by Messrs. Smith. The Court had made no order for Nos. 2 and 3 in the busi ness paper of the last Court, and it might be very well for the Chairman, or Mr. Ogle, to wish to have a decree signed immediately ; but it was a breach of privilege, and n great assumption of pswer on the part of any Chairman, or any advocate, to put matters in the business paper with out the approbation of the Court. Ile wished to know whether No. 2 and 3 were to be smuggled into the business paper for next Friday, as if so ho would give a notice of motion to bring the whole matter before the Court. The CHAIRMAN said, that if it depended upon the chair man of the day they certainly would not, as he conceived it would be better to defer the matter until after the verdict. Mr. LESLIE was glad to hear that he had written to Messrs. Smith about this opinion , and had keen referreii to and on exami n ing the gooks he easlli long, ha but that daskedfo he racoph and h a d b een to ld t h a t it was too might send any one t o c opy it. o lie Solicitor- General were recorded i n the book s , without the case being given. The opini on was tacked ,to a case which bad c f a ol e d the himself opinions a io n n d s not been submitted to th e p ersons who gave the opinion. dofidthsoe Attorney and , The CHAIRMAN thought it would be better to defer the consideration of these matters until the parties interested should be present. Sir GEORGE FANANT rose to order, and after a scene of the greatest confusion, The CHAIRMAN interfered, and said that he considered Mr. Leslie was proceeding irregularlY, and interrupting the whole course of the business. Mr. LESLIE thought it right to state that the case to which he referred occurred in 1833. He thought it right to state that, to exonerate the present Chairman and Clork from blame. Orders were made relating to the rebuilding of various Se's ers. The CLERK of the Court read a Report relative to a deficiency is the accounts of Thomas Read, one of the collectors of the Sewer's-rate. The amount was, as far as known, 187/. 17s. The two sureties, a Mr. Collinson and a Mr. Wallace, wi re both insolvent. The CHAIRMAN said all public bodies in such cases had wily one course to pursue. They most put the bond in force ; that was the only course to pursue in justice to all parties concerned. After a desultory conversation, the Court ordered the bond to be put in force against the collector and his sureties immediately. The Cliathstas said they had now to appoint a new collector. Mr. LESLIE Slid the manner in which the collectors were appointed was almost sure to lead to the diffi culties they were now in. They ought not to appoint tradesmen, for however fair their outward appearance might be, it was impossible to know how they were in volved. He would propose that they should have paid clerks belonging to the office down stairs, who would give proper security, like bankers clerks. They would ac count for all they had received every night, and no &fal -1 cations could take place. He would propose that the va cancy be not filled up. Let the other Eve collectors die off, for he did not wish to use them harshly ; but he hoped the Cemmiasioners would favourably consider his plan ; and in the meantime he trusted they would pause before perpetuating the s} stem, by appointing a collector under the old system. Mr. Amy said the first thing they had to do was to de clare a vacancy. He would therefore move that the office be declared vacant, and. that it be not filled up for some time. Ile was anxious to have the rate collected in the best and the cheapest manner, but it would take some time to consider the plans that might be offered. A CCMMISSIJNER thought Mr. Leslie's suggest'on was well worthy of consideration. The motion was then agreed to. The CHAIRMAN might take that opportunity of saying, that without pledging himself to any plan, he thought there was much good sense ;in what bad fallen from Mr. Leslie. Ile bad always thought the plan of appointing tradesmen to the office of collector bad. A motion was made that the clerk make application for a copy of the short-hand writer's notes of the summing up of the Assessor to the Jury, on the Friday of last week. It was objected that such a motion could not be put, because if carried the Court would recognise the appoint. ment of the short-band writer. A vote was taken, when there appeared For the motion Against it Majority against the motion The Clerk laid the bills due on tho table, which arnouated to 14,000/. To meet this there was 1,6001. in the banker's hands, and about 2,000/. of rates uncollected. The CHAIRMAN said in such a state of their finances it was highly important that a rata should he made. Mr. ADEY hoped there would be no objection to discuss the signing of the decree on Friday next after the traverse had been tried: Mr. LEsun objected—it would appear to hurry the Jury; et all events such haste would not look well in the eyes of the public. Let them call a special meeting as soon after the Jury had decided as they pleased. He then moved " That tha names of the mover and seconder of every motion made in the Court of Sewers be inserted in the records of the proceedings of the Court; and also that no motion be put from the chair unless the same be reduced to writing by the mover, and signed by the mover and seconder." The motion having been seconded by Captain Bacon, Mr. ADEY begged to add, " And that no Commissioner speak twice upon the same motion except the mover."— ( Loud laughter.) Mr. LESLIE had not the slightest objection to the addi tion, if it were to be made applicable to other CAnmis sioncis as well as to him and Mr. Adcy. The CHAIRNIAN said that was already the rule of the Court, ani was unnecessary. The criginal motion was then carried, with only one dis sentie n t. Mr. Lssut then moved, " That the Bye-law, No. 10, be altered so as to stand thus :—' That all questions be de cided by the names of the Commissioners voting being taken down by the Clerk.' " He thought it important that it should be put upon record, because fifty names of Commissioners might appear as present on one day, and yet sonic motion might be carried nem. con. by only five or six Commissioners, and that same record might be re moved into the Queen's Bench. How was the Court to know who were the parties who carried the motion ? Mr. ADEY objected to the motion, on the ground that it would lead to much confusion and loss of time. Any Commissioner now might have the names taken down when he asked for it. The CHAIRMAN said a complaint had that morn ing been made of the great time taken up in reading the minutes. Now if the names were taken down on every slight occasion it must add to the evil. Besides, how was the Clerk to pay proper attention to the minutes if be was constantly engaged in this mechanical operation ? Mr. LESLIE had thought it his duty to make the propo sition, because on several occasions a motioa had been de dared carried one way, and when the names were taken down it was carried the other way. lie did not think much time would be lost, and it would add greatly to the respectability of their proceedings. The motion was then put, and 3 voted for it and 12 against it. Mr. LESLIE then moved that the names be taken down, amidst much laughter.—Adjourned. EAST SURREY ELECTION. MEETING OF MR. ALCOCK'S FRIENDS. Thursday a meeting of the Liberals of Richmond and the neio.bourbood took place at the Talbot, to take mea sures in furtherance of the return of Mr. Alcock. The majority of the influential Reformers of the town and its vicinity were present. Mr. Alcock is understood to b. likely to meet with a strong body of supporters in Rich mond and the neighbourhood. Among the gentlemen on the platform we observed Mr. Hutton, NI. P., Mr. Hol land, M. P., Mr. Hawes, M. P., Mr. Great.ll, Mr. Thos. flames, Col. Alcock, Sir T. N. Reeve, Mr. Clay, M.P., and Mr. R )blnson. Clilistopher Pal'lip Garrick, Esq. W 93 called to the chair at half-past &gilt o'clock, amidst the applause of a crowded and enthuii3st;c audienrp . . Mr. TALBOT proposed the following resolution : " That it is expedient, in the present state of public affairs, that a gentleman be sent to Parliament whose sen timents are known to be favourable to freedom of election —freedom of trade—and the full enjoyment of civil and re ligious liberty."—( Cheers. ) BENJAMIN lIAWES, Esq. , M. P., seconded the resolu tion. The Government, at .this moment, scarcely posses sed the means of carrying out any of the important mea sures of reform which had been named in the House of Commene.—( Hear, hear ) They could not now be pro posed in that House with the smallest chance of success.-- ( Hear, hear.) If the Reformers of the county chose to exercise every description of power and influence which they possessed, as was done by their opponents, they would carry the election of the Liberal candidate trium phant, but they disdained to do it —(Loud applause.) They scorned anything but an honest vote.—(Cheers.) Their opponents told them that the Ballot was unneces sary for the protection of the voter, and yet night after night the Tory Members went to their clubs and voted by ballet.—( Cheers and laughter ) On the great question of the freedom of trade was there one proposition made in he House of Commons which the Tories did not oppose ? —( Cheers.) The Church of England, which was in times past the bulwark of liberty, was perverted by the Tories to party purposes, and had been entirely used by them tie a means of promoting their private interest and influence._-( Hear, hear, hear.) Ile had heard it asserted that there was no diff:renec between the Whigs and the Tories. Take any great question of reform—eclucation,:for example : who led the way in opposition to liberal measures respecting education, but the Tories? The Whigs, whatever might be their sins, had acted on that question in a most straightforward man ner, by wishing to extend the blessings of education to all without distinction of party.—(Cheers ) Night after night did the Tories oppose in the House of Commons every measure of amelioration and reform of the Constitu tion, and was it fair to say, under these circumstances, that there was no distinction between the two parties?—( Hear, hear.) If the county did its duty, it would return a Li beral Member.—( Cheers.) The resolution was then put, and carried by acclamation Mr. ALCOCK then presented himself amidst the most deafening plaudits. He would state in the most candid way his opinions on any subject that the electors chose to require. —(Cheers ) Paramount to every question was that of the Corn-laws —(Cheers.) He ohjscted to the cry of the Duke of Buckingham and his party against any alteration in the present system, and he disapproved equelly of the conduct of the anti-Corn-law party in de manding immediate repeal. A middle course of policy be tween the two was the most desirable. He would now state his opinion on the five points of the Charter. Respecting the B illot, he should prefer open voting, but he be lieved that at present it was impossible for the honest voter to exercise his right of voting tree from all influence and intimidation. lie should, therefore, abide by the opinion he had alre.ady expressed in favour of the Ballet.— (Cheers.) The next point, namely, Universal Suffrage, he could not approve, but at the same time there was a necessity for the extension of the suffrage in some way.— (Cheers.) lie did not believe that practically either an nual or triennial Parliaments would be found to answer. At the same time lie would not oppose a proposition to shorten the duration of Parliament to periods of five years. (Cheers. ) Were it less, he would not himself come forward and expose himself to all the inconveniences of an election.—( Hear, hear.) As for the last point of tht Charter, no property qualleation, he attached no impor tance to it whatever. The fact was, that a great number of the present Members of the House of Commons were not duly qualified in this respect—( Hear, hear) —and as to the payment of Members, he should have no objection whatever to be paid himself.—(Cheers and laughter.) He (Mr. Alcock) was as much the friend of the Church as any of his opponents; but he was no friend to any of the abuses that had crept into the Establisliment.—(Cheers. ) Sir T. REEVE inquired whether Mr. Alcock was favour able to the gradual abolition of copyhold tenure, which was a question of great interest to the county ? Mr. ALCOCK could conceive no ground of opposition whatever.—( Hear.) Sir Teorees REEVE next inquired whether he would support any measure to expedite the recovery of small debts? It was well knows that poor tradesmen were often put to an expense of 201. to recover a debt of 51.—( Hear.) Mr. ALCOCK would give his most strenuous support to further any measure calculated to enable the people to ob tain cheap justice.—(Cheers.) • Mr. ROBINSON moved " That Mr. Alcock having fully declared his political sentiments, which are in accordance with those of this meeting, is a fit and proper person to re present this county in Parliament." Mr. HOT-roe, M.P., seconded the resolution. It was then put, and carried unanimously. Mr. HOLLAND, M.P., proposed the next resolution, to the effect " That this meeting pledge themselves, indivi dually and collectively, to promote, by every legitimate means in their power, Mr. Alcock's return." Mr. CLAY, M.P., seconded the resolution, which was put, and carried amidst loud applause. Sir T. REEVE moved a vote of thanks to the Chairman, which was seconded, and carried by acclamation. The meeting was considered one of the most numerous ever held in Richmond, and the proceedings throughout were conducted with the utmost enthusiasm. In consequence of the death of Lord Henley, the Right Hon. Sir Robert Peel's Parliamentary dinner, fixed for this day, is postponed. WAR STEAMERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

( From the 1-Vnloulh Journal.) PLYMOUTH, FEB. 4 —Mr. John Fiuchem is appointed foreman of this dockyard. The Pi,cenix steamer sailed on Friday for Malta. The Inconstant paid advance on Monday, and sailed on Tuesday for the Mediterranean. The EnJymion paid advance on Monday, and sailed on Tuesday for the East Indies. The Iris arrived oa Sunday, with supernumeraries from Portsmouth. An order was this week received at this division of Royal Nlatines to forward immediately recruiting parties, each composed of three Sergeants, three Corporals, and one private to the following places :—Tu Derby.•under the command of Capt. D. Campbell; to Grantham, under the command of Capt. Mercer ; to Wolverhampton, under the command of Capt. Totill ; and to Hereford, under the command of. Copt. Pearce.—Two recruiting parties are -also ordered out , from Woolwich, one to Edin burgh, under the command of Captain Philips, and another elsewhere, under the command of Capt. Wright. The standard is lowered half an inch ; it is now 5 feet 6. I: is understood that the number of companies, about to be raised, is 12, which will give commissions to 12 Cap. tains and 12 First Lieutenants, and the appointment of 60 sergeants and 60 corporals, 5 sergeants and 5 corporals being attached to each company of Merines ; while there are only 3 sergeants and 3 corporals attached to com panies of the line. We understand the crews of the Iris and Pelican have generously followed the example of the crews of the Avon, Rapid, and Viper, and given a day's pay for the relief of the widows and orphans of the crew of the Fairy. Through the kind exertions of Lieutenant Sheringhain, several small sums have been collected in this neighbourhood, for the same object. Mr. Langley, ordnance storekeeper, has given a donation of 1/ to the fund. SLAVE TRADE ON TILE EAST COAST.--The Spanish barque Amelia, of 278 tons, but under the Portuguese flag, from ilevannah, bound to Mozambique, was taken off the harbour on the 31st ult., after an arduous chase of 21 hours, by her Majesty's ship Acorn, Captain J. Adam=, being fully fitted for slaves, and having on board 27,000 Spanish dollars for the purchase of the same, and has been sent into Table Bay with ten slaves on beard, taken out of a large dow, of 150 tons, also captured by her Majesty's ship Acorn, with thirty slaves (the remaining twenty taken on board the Acorn), but is said to have landed 200 near Mozambique Harbour the evening previous to her capture. The hull was to be desttoyed. A large brig, the Portia, sailing under Por tuguese colours, had been fined previous to the Acorn's i.rrival at Mozambique Harbour, and allowed to depart with a passport for the Havannah ; but on gett;ng outside the slaver commenced levying cont,ibutions of slaves from the different ports, and plundering the Arab down along the coast. Not having water casks on board (they having been burned at Mozambique Harbour), she stood over to the Island of Joanna and levied a contributi, n from an English schooner and an American whaler lying there, after which she continued het course for the island of Mayotte, where she anchored, and the captain sent to the King to procure him two hundred slaves, with a sufficient supply of rice and water to raain:ain them. However, he ended his cruise here, for a Fri nch corvette happened to come round the island, and on observing the vessel at anchor sent her beats and took her. She was sent into Mozambique Harbour, and it was said that she had on board 250 Arabl, negroes, &c. The three Spa nish slavers condemned by the local Government at Mo zambique Harbour have since been ascertained to be the Grand Antilles, Relampego, and Emprendedur, but sail ing under Portuguese colours, with the following names, Gloria, Maria Segunda, and Emprendedor ; the cargoes and specie they had on board were given up to the masters, after heavy fines had been levied on them. The prize brig Rclampago, taken into the Government service, and fitted up as a men-of-war, had been expedited for the different ports along the coast, with orders for taking any vessel that might have entered fitted for the slave trade ; the Governor-General, besides taking v, ry active step: to suppress the slave trade, had removed from their post all the Governcrs of the dfferent ports suspected of riving any countenance thereto. The Avon steamer arrived on Thursday, with volunteers from Liverpool, and sailed on Monday for Pembroke, with a party of men to bring round a new ship. Remaining in Ilanioaze.—Caledonia, San Josef, Raven, Sylph, Netley, Carron steamer, Pluto steamer, Comet steamer, Diligence No. 7, Duck liehter. In the Sound.—lmpregnable, Belleisle, and Iris.

Greater part of the cargo was expected to be saved. A large American ship was seen on shore on Sall Key Bank, near llavannah, previous to 16th December. TILE FAILURE OF MESSRS. KEASLEY, THE TANNEAS, OP BEKISONDSEY.—Since the bankruptcy of Messrs. Wright, the bankers of Heurietta•street, Covent garden, no failure has excited so much astonishment, or has been attended by such melancholy results, as the failure of the Messrs. Keasley, the tanners, in Long-lane, Bermond sey. The firm was considered the richest in that part of London, and the horses and harness were exceeded by no house in town, or perhaps the world. The Messrs. Keasley had for a long series of years carried on one of the most extensive trades in Bermondsey, or within five miles of it. The liabilities of the firm are variously stated, as amounting from 100,000/. to 250,0001. The chief creditors are re ported to be Messrs. Streatfield and Lawrence, leather sellers, of Lime-strest, to the amount of 17,0001. ; Mr. Sharp, currier, of Russell -street, Bermondsey, 7,0001. ; the firm of %Verret' and Co., blacking makers, 20,000/. ; Messrs. Boucher and Mortimer, leather-factors, of the New Leather-market, Bermondsey, 7,000/ ; Mr. Vousley, who keeps a public-house in Long lane, 2001., for a cheek which be cashed,:besides a large amount owing by the men, who " used" his house. The consternation which this bankruptcy has caused is great, and has placed out of em ploy all, or nearly all, the men. Messrs. Keasley are also said to be the contractors to Government fur the patent 'leather belts. DEATH OF SIR DAVID ERSKIYE, We have to announce the death of the above Baronet. The deceased was born in 1792, and married, in 1821, Miss Jane Williams, daughter of the late Mr. Hugh Wil liam?, and is succeeded by his eldest son, now Sir Tho mas Erskine. STORMS.—A sudden and violent storm of wind passed over Bordeaux a few evenings since. Several trees were blown down, and a boat on the river, with four men on board, was upFet, and all were drowned. A farmer at Blaiville, in the Calvados, had one of his fields much da maged last week by a flood of water that passed over it ; but in a hollow formed by the current there was laid bare a terracotta vase, containing 300 Roman bronze coins. On Monday last were lauded at Harborough the Captain and crew of the schooner Eden, of Sunder land, which was lost on the 23d ult., about 40 miles to the eastward of Aberdeen, during a ga le of Rind and a heavy sea, in consequence of her having sprung a leak. The Captain and crew were rescued by Captain Craw ford (and his crew), of the Esker, of Dundee, and !t.,out an hour after they saw the Eden sink. Mu i ch praise is due to Ceptain Crawford fo r his gallant manner n saving their lives and for the kind treatment while on . board . his vessel.

Mr. For , ...)th, in his reply, after stating. tii anxi:ols desire cf his G ive raTer.t to maintain amicable relations lktwcen the United States and England, says— " 17. is tarn with unfeigned regret that the President finds himself unable to r.cognise the salidity of a demand, a comp t hatice with which you deem so material to the presenatiJa of the food understanding nbich has been iiithcrto tnanifestcd between the two countries.

Mr. Fox. in reply to the note of Mr. Forsyth, dated li.teernber 26, is which the application for the relict of M . Leod is T efu3A, regrets this refusal, and intitnates that it, and the ill-treatment of Mr. M•Leod, hill bed to the most grave and serious consequences. He states again edit the attack on the Caroline was trade in pursuance of orders from the C... , !anial Authorities, wed he says that the Carol c was a piratical vessel, and sees but nominally eithin the jurisdiction of the Uuired Staecs. The autho rities of New York had beer, unable to ruaietaia their ju risdiction at the pl :cc where the C.e.cliee was trtacked, or even to prevent the pirates hem carrying cff from that place the canton belonging to the State. He was not authorized-to state what were the views of her Majesty's Gevernmeet on this .tut , ject, hut he took this occasion to pace his own epinion en record. Mr. Re s. th expresses lis belief that Mr. Fox would not entertain this opinion if he bad s: en the t 4 hole evi dence on the subject, which was ere fully collected by the United States, and communieeeed to the Britis't Govern. ment. Ile had no more to soy to Mr. Fox en the matter, and awaits the result of the demand upon Great Britain for reparation. The reading of these documents, the two first having been communicated prior to the second and tiled, gave rise to irregular, but somewhat excited, discussion: in the House of Representatives. Ail the Nlenibers who spoke approved of the manlier in which Mr. Forilth had met the demand of Mr. Fox fur the liberation of M'L col. Mr. Alford, of Georgia, said that, es a seuthsrn man, he had not more sympathy towards the north-eastern territory than he ought to have; but he did know that the lion of England had been growling for his prey on that north-eastern boundary lor! ago. As an American citizen he felt. humbled at the reflection that under the administration of Martin Van Buren, the eagle cf the United States had cowered under the lion of England. lie felt humbled, that a country which, even in the days of the revolution, was strong enough to defend its tights, should now permit the Q.reen of England to deprive them of everything. Mr. Holmes, of South Ca rolina, asked whether the remarks made by Mr. Alford were to be considered ominous of the future acti ,n of the new Administration. Were they to judge, from the re marks made b 3 one of its friends, that the country was to be precipitated into a eel:filet with this mighty power, prepared and armed at every point, and that, too, for a line of demarcation ? If they were to rush into the con flict, if the south was to be prostrated, he was thankful that gentlemen had shown their hands, that the south might know that one of the results attending the triumph of this great party was a question of territorial war. M-. Alford, in reply, said that he had merely spoken his owa sentiments. Hi; owa wish was, that the United States should never war with Great Britain on this or any other question, if war could be henourebly avoided. Mr. Cushinv had been delighted to hear the patriotic sentiments winch had fallen from the lips of the Member from Georgia, and believed that, upon reflection, they would find approval even in the heart of the Member from South Carolina. After the second and the third letters had been read, a debate followed, in which Mr. Dais, of ladiana, having intimated that he was tired of the wr,rds " amicable rolaticns," that he did not wish the land of the lion heart and ePgle ec to crouch t.) the British Government," Mr. Granger replied, and afr,-, whatever, the I , Tril..m.rit in ‘Vcsttrti New York on this subject Nl•Lcod could have a fair trial. he said— " If upon that trial be oan hr shown to be innocent, he v. ill be cquitted ; if he chould be proved guilty, beyond the possibility of doubt, he will be cove/mind; and, if conlemned, he trill be executed his execution bring duo to the Eupremccy of the laws of the State of New York. That act performed—if the British Government should hastily take upon herself to redress the supposed wrong, she will find in Western New York the same blood that was there in I Sl2—uttb:ught by British gold—unbought, and to be b;ught only by that love s!' country tlett has marked hcr, and that has marked the whole people of this wiJe-spread confederacy. I have no fear, as the gentleman from Indiana (Mr. Davis) s , -ems to have, that this country will ever crouch to the Bri tish lion. She bill art eau iously and dispassionately ; ...he trill execute the laws within their proper limits wisely and josh ; end, trlton that is done, my word for it, the gentleman f,om Indiana need not fear that either the Ge neral Government or the State of N:l4' Yj:k will quail bcf, re the British lion.' A correspontl:nt of one of the Nec, York papers, writ ing from 'sVadtingt.)ll, nialys Ctc tollowing remarks on the earr. , ipondenee, and the debates tc which its reading had given : " Mc. F.hrsyth, however, has suggested a course which a pac ti disposition and sound discretion ought to sanction, viz., that the :scp.irate and independent action of tic autho rities of Now York, and of national diplomacy between the two countries, in such a task, should proeet d pa,i passu and simultaneously. We presume, or should hope, that there is a 'competence in the Chancery or other powers of New Yolk to conf srin to such a tube. Lis I thus afford all possible opportunities for an amicable adjustment of the difficulty. If the Government of Great B. i:ain sees rea sons for seeking an occasional quarrel, of course there is no remedy. This new and unexpected position is a just matter of surprise, more especially that Mr. Fox should seize open common rumour or common impressions as a material for diplomatic argument, as a thing granted be tween the two Goternments, when it had never been touched by them. .• The President's Message, in reply to the resolution of the blouse calling for information as to any proceedings of the British Government by which our trade with China had been interrupted, had been' received, read, and refer red to the Committee on Foreign Affairs. Mr. Stevenson, in a letter to Lord Parmerston, in quires, whether the Order in Council of the 3d of April, nuthorising reprisals upon vessels and Felicity of Chinese subjects. would he sa construed as to extend to vessels and property of merchants resident in Canton, and consigning vessels to agents resident iu Canton. He enters into an argument to show that it should not, tinder national be so construed. Ile mentions that some American merchants had large permanent establishments at Canton, and that some of their vessels laden with Bri tish and American goods were delayed in several posts until they could be assured of safety in their intended vo:. ages. " The reply of Lord Palmerton is, that the Law of Nations would justify Great Britain in dealing with the vessels and property of residents in Canton in the same manner as with the vessels and property of Chinese sub j eta ; that the order was based ou that principle, but, igi. h o o ,, n , r r i :N o t 'o f v c: em a b t e o r n L b o y r u d a j l l e : c a i t i t s s i n n e v c .( o , r m i h n e i l a e n s d s, t t o h a c t p d p i i r y e o t t h i oens orderi,ad been g o ive c n i r.o in t a l s ic e AsAdmiral son, that the necessary for the preFent.

TIIE ECCENTRIC SOCIETY. The Commissioners of Police have at last succeeded in fl i ng a conviction against thi s long-established and rl zj sti>ectahle Society. Some months ago they brought the case before Mr. Jardine, the BOW street Magistrate, who dismissed it on the ground that it did not come under the clause of the Police Act relating to hotels and public houses.
