No 15,233 IVOTIGE TO THE PUBLIC. -LI GENERAL POST-OFFICE, JUNE, 1841. As there is a great risk of lost in transmitting letters con taining coin through the post, parties having occasion to re mit small sums in cash are recommended to make use of the Money Order-office, where they will incur no hazard, while those who may desire to remit bank notes or drafts, iayable to bearer, are requested to cut them in half , sending' each half, if possible, by tivo different posts. In the case of bank notes, or bank post bills, being sent, the numbers, dates , and a mounts should be carefully taken. Money orders, for sums under five pounds, are,granted and paid by every Poit-town in the United Kingdom, and by the Chief Office in St. Martin's-le-Grand, the three Branch Offices, Chiring-cross, Cavendish-street, and the Borough, and also by the principal Receiving-houses within the twelve mile circle. Letters may also be registered, on payment of a fee of is., in addition to the postage. • • With the great convenience thus afforded for transmitting small sums at so low a charge, and the power now given of registering. letters oontaining value, it is hoped the public will no longer forward letters of value, except in one or other of these methods. i By command, • W.

'l t o enter into the details of these affections, to point - out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habits, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT; a PRECEPTOR. or a CLERGYMAN. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their resident le, No. 7, Frith - street , Soho, from Ten till Three, and Five till Eight in the Evening; and Country Patients are re quested to be as niinnte as possible in the detail of their cases, —as to the dmiation.of the complaint, the symptoms, age, ge neral habits of livin ~,, a nd occupation in life of the p art y ; the communication mus t' be accompanied by the "usual Consulta tion Fee of 11.," without which no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in all cases, the most inviolable secrecy may be relied on. THE LATE MURDEROUS ATTACK UPON A POLICEMAN AT EPSOM.—On Thursday, at the Sessions, held at Guildford, George Gaidan, the son of an extensive upholsterer in High-street, Epsom ; George Ecks, tile-ina,ker, James Phipps, and John Ratcliffe, recruits in the 89th Foot, and Charles Fincher, labourer, were indicted for a riot, and assaulting and wounding Joseph Russell, police constable 269 V. The circumstances of the case must be fresh in the recollection of our readers. After a very long examination, in which the constable and his witnesses were severely cross examined, the Chairinan charged the Jury, and they returned a verdict of Guilty against all the priioners. The sentence of the Court was, that Garden was to be confined in the Hoase of Correction for twelve months and hard labour, and the others nine months each with hard labour. LONDON, MONDAY, J ULY 5, lB4l. LLOYD'S CAPTAINS' ROOM. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR—Permit me to call your attention and that of your com mercial readers to the manner is which Lloyd's Captains' Room is conducted, that is, totally unworthy of that branch of the institution of Lloyd's. The Chairman of Lloyd's,- the ex- Member for Worcester, Mr. Robinson, has. I am fearful, since his conversion to Conservatism, left off reforming, otherwise au excellent opportunity has long presented itself of placing this room on a par of usefulness with the room similar in cha racter at Liverpool. The one at Liverpool is most abun dantly supplied with newspapers from all parts of the United Kingdom, as well as with publications of all descriptions relat ing to commerce: The liberality displayed by the subscribers there is worthy of example at every commercial place in the kingdom ; for instance, should a gentleman arrive there on business, he would have an offer pressed upon him to have his name inserted in a book as a visitor for three months, or a shorter period, and you would not experience the slightest dif ficulty in ascertaining the address of a commercial visitor upon going to the Exchange Rooms; and as a place of resort it is superior to any in London, and chiefly on account of the great facilities afforded for mercantile information, whereas Lloyd's Captains' Room is only supplied with six Morning Papers, the Shipping Gazette, and the Public Ledger, and no Evening Papers *hatever, and is only a place of particular resort at 'Change hours; and is, therefore, during the greater part of the day almost worthless to subscribers. One particular improvement I beg to suggest is the furnish ing Tide Lists of arrivals and departures of vessels at Graves end, as is done at Liverpool ; and it is really astonishing that it has not long since been done in London.

Ningpo Prison, February, 19, 1641.—Xy ever dear Friend,—On Sunday, the 14th, I received your kind letter containing the glad tidings of peace, and the joyful hope of a speedy release from prison ; and in which you so sweetly and affectionately offer *home to the home less. I feel sure, my dear friend, viz will make due al lowance for the state of mind in which I write. • I shall infer, that you' know all our affairs up to, I think, the 10th of September, when the Kite was again on her way to Chusan ; all went well till the 16th, and we then hoped to reach Chusan in two days. About twelve o'clock in the forenoon the vessel struck on an awful quicksand, not laid down} in the chart. The shock was as sudden as it was dreadful. All efforts at the moment were used, but in vain, and in a few mo ments, almost before We could think e . o ~,r:Speak, or, alas ! even time to fetch m y swee t chi; from the cabin, the vessel went over with a tremendoni4a on her broad side, and every creature on board (except my dear child) was precipitated waseipit so dreadful v ated sithr I saw t vlo i violence ; O i io the sea. The moment and whether my beloved husband, who was giving 'orders to the last moment, ran to the cabin to save his darling child, or whether he fell with the rest,•l know not ; but, alas ! he was-never seen or heard of more. His last words to use were, " Hold on, Anne ;",never, never shall I forget them. My sweet child must have perished in his cradle. Oh ! how often have I wished I had shared the same grave, yet the will of God was otherwise. After strug gling under water for some time I caught hold of one of the iron bars that hold the boat on the quarter, to which I clung, my body being still iu the water, and the breakers coming over me with g reat force. A poor little dog saved itself on my breast for some , time, but at last I was obliged to put it off: Oh I hesi it ecin my darling - child, I would have•ditel-ather a aloeso:10 times. Lieu tenant Douglas arose close by me, and, although for a time lie could not help me, yet I ..shall ever re member, with the deepest gratitude, the kind manner in which he stood by me, doing all in hie power to soothe me, and, by his orders, to save the lives of all. Oh ! could I picture to you the Ken's at this moment— the vessel on her broadside, mast and sails in the water, numbers of persons rising and clinging tb the wreck, the horror of every comitenance, and the dread ful noise of the breakers -t--never, never, shall I .forget the sight. Lieutenant Douglas with Mr. Witts, the chief officer, who now liindly came Kmavard to my ai4, did all in their power to save me, and they were, by the blessing of God, the means of preserving my unhappy life. These two gentlemen, with the, poor cabin boys, got into the boat. I had just strength to raise my foot, of which one of the gentlemen took hold, drew the boat to, and lifted me in. The boat being nearly fall of water, and the breakers still coming over it every mo ment, the gentlemen were obliged to cut the rope to prevent her .sinking. ' The current immediately took her, and nothing could prevent her from leaving the wreck. About four o'clock.the current turned in otir favour, and after some hours of anxiety we cause in sight of the wreck ; .as we drew near we found the vessel had sunk in the sand, and only-her maintop was now in sight, to which all the poor sufferers clung for life. Efforts were made to reach the wreck ; but it was impossible. Lieut. Douglas spoke to. the men, and told them to make a raft, hoping on the morrow to be able to render them some assistance- - We now again left the wreck, and night began to set, in ; the gentlemen lay down in the bottom of the boat, and I 'sat and kept watch by . the stars. It was a beautiful moonlight night, but I need not say it appeared- very long ; -and often did I speak to Lieut. Douglas, who slept very little. On the 16th we again passed the wreck early, and as before strove in vain -to reach the poor crew. A few words were spoken until we were carried away by the current. In the afternoon we passed the wreck for the last time ; everything possible was done to reach it, but to no purpose ; and after speaking a few words ' once more,-we had-to endure the - trial' of being carried past. What-our feelings were none'but those in alike situation can ccrnceive:- - It was now again night, and, as before, I kept my melancholy watch.' After this we could not find the ~Wreck;* and: we Were obliged to come to the dreadful conclusion- that all the crew must have perished, or have beeri'taken from the wreck by the Chinese. I now felcalmest sure that I was . a widow, and all alone in' the world, lint yet I think L-Iniped even against hope, :arid Lieutenant Douglas, who was most kind to me,, .rather led me to believe suCh happiness possi ble.. Picture for a moment our situation—five of us in a -small boat, with little clothing—the gentlemen being but thinly clad, and Myself in a thin morning gown, no bonnet, no•shawl, and no shoes, the Fitter having been waShed.off ; 'no water; no sail, only two oars, andnear an eneiny's country. On this day we- went on board a fishing 'boat; the men were kind to: us, and gave us a little dry rice, some water, and'aii eld,nuitto try to make as, il of. Soon a Apr, we. thoneli • -aveesaw -a sntall.. - 4ng- a tft - sal - i reeve . a' ° '. ' 4 ' . ! - .*Vii-Vrgit ;?:4 Nl'l t hitt after a longtime* . - 'jsere mistaken...

Whilst we were thus dr'i'ven about'. froin Pldee to place; again we thought we saw a steamer, ....... we did.all in our power to make them observe us, raising a signal of ilistre,ss on one Qf our oars, an'd on ce snore we were as before disappointed. On Wecineaday. night the breakers came over our little boat with such violence that we thought she wouldlia,Ve sunk ; it washed away one of our oars and we were all wet through; but still the Almighty preserved us. Thursday, the 17th, we boarded - another boat, and asked . them to take . us to Chusan, • which they promised to do, but-to which the master of the party would not accede.. However; they took us up a canal, and told us that was the way. It now b egan to rain. a- little, and at night we found ourselves in a small creele,; with numbers of Chinamen round us. They appeared.kind, and-brought., us a little boiled rice. Wonderful to say, although we had been so long without food, not one in the boat com plained of hunger, and of the rice now brought very littlo was eaten ; the rain now fell fast; and • we ell laid down in the bottom of the boat, and laid the - old mat over the top. About twelve o'clock I thought I heard footsteps, and on looking up saw about twenty Chinamen round our boet, carrying gay lanterns. I awoke Lieutenant Douglas in alarm ; however, they still appeared kind; and gave us more food. - In the morning, it being very wet, we went barefooted to a Chinaman's house. After sitting, a, short time, they told us that they would get, us something to ea t, and then take us to Chusan. We followed. They took us to a temple for shelter from the rain. One of the party now, left us, and we began to suspect that all was not right, and set off to regaiuour boat. It was too late. We had scarcely as cended the bank, when, on looking behind, we saw a large party of soldiers, a mandarin, and a number of Chinese pursuing us. We saw at Once we were betrayed —flight was impossible, resistance was vain. I was lean ing on Lieutenant Douglas's arm... Ile. stood boldly . in my defence, but it was of no use, for they struck- me . several times. They then put chains around our necks, hurrying us along a path not half a yard in breadth to a large city, through every street of which they led us. The people thronged by thousands to stare, so that we • could scarcely pass. Their savage cries were terrific. From this they led us to a temple full of soldiers, and one of the wretches stole my wedding-ring from my finger—the only thing Itreasured. They then set a table and wrote Chinese, asking whether we understood it. Never shall I forget. that temple, their fierce grimaces, and savage threats. Hitherto Lieutenant Douglas had been my only friend, and I think I.may say that we have been a mutual com fort to one another throughout our sufferings. But we were soon to part. The soldiers bound Lieutenant Douglas's hands behind him and tied him to is,post, and in this situation I was forced from him. Wp took an affectionate leave of one another, as friends never expect ing to meet again until we meet in Heaven. Mr. .Witts, one of the boys, and myself, were now again dragged through the rain, and my feet being bare, slipped at every step, and they were at -last obliged to bring me a pair of straw sandals.. I was obliged to hang to the coat of a tall man who held me by the chain. We must have looked wretched in the extreme, our clothes being much covered with dirt as well as drenched with rain; my hair hung dishevelled round my neck. In this state we must have walked at least twenty miles, and passed through numberless cities, all the inhabitants of which crowded around us ; thtir hooting and savage yells were frightful. We twice passed through water nearly up to our waist. After having reached a terhple, we were al l Owed to rest ourselves on some • stones. They gave us here some prison clothes and food. At night they laid doirin some mats and a quilt on either side of a large temple. Mr. Witts and the boy took one side, and after a short prayer I. lay . down, but not to sleep ; the chain round our necks being fastened to the wall. Would that I could describe to you the scene—the temple beautifully • lighted up with lanterns, our miserable beds, and snore miserable selves, all the dark faces of the frightful looking f C r h on in l e t s h e ei (f r o lon Nh g v i o 3i m pes I , t t h l el in d k in t o h f e t r h eiv g e e r i e lg ei n g n h d t), oth tl e i i e n sm oi o se ke s, which they kept up all night, were Videed horrid. Long, very long, did this appear. Morning at last dawned, and the keepers brought us a lit* water to wash with, which was a great comfort, after which they lea us to an of Here number lesstheynoted every o t o p o e k n sop c u o e t ic, i t r ha t t , eoi t ogr spectators ,teotehxeepolomesneegdttiiro.ootufhgehopoo throughout b th l ta i i c li er g , ( r a i d. feature in an exact manner, and then made us write.. an account of the wreck of the Kite. Li the evening I Was ' taken to see the mandarin's wife and daughters, but al though my appearance must have been wretched in the extreme, they did not evince the least feeling towards me, but rather treated use as an object of stern. This I felt the more as I was enabled to make them understand that I had lost both any dear husband and child in the ut . plfaoelleostov ~ c t o l ;f im n . e a They - put We remained here two days and three nights, derided and : taunted by al; around us. .On the, morning of Monday the 21c, they' took ate' ead of p o u ur t our crags and d td quilts bad° itito ya sm rd al h l ig c h ag , e a s i , l - tjt.,ints: more such b as ea l s ' t 'e in s . than three quarters of a yard long, and little more than ho m uld ine th w in a l s e s a oa p r r o o e p l f , a half a yard broad. The doorsopened from the top. Into these we were lifted, the chain round our necks being locked to the cover. They put a long piece,Of bamboo through the middle, a moan took eithe r en d, an d i n t hi s manner we were jolted from the city to suffer 'insults from the rabble, the cries of whom were aWful.. We again stopped at another city, and were taken out of our ceges, having heavy irons put on our legs, with a chain half a yard long. Mr. Witts and the boy had also irons on their wrists ; alihough I saw mine, they did not put them on at that time. The former were carried on board one boat, and I myself put into another, and thus we proceeded two days and three nights on a canal, during which time I did not taste any food, as they would not permit me to get out of my little cage on any account. You may judge what my sufferings were. I believe it was Wednesday. the 23d that we arrived at Ningpo. You may imagine my happiness in finding my dear friend, Lieut. Douglas. I also heaid with gratitude and joy that all the Kite's crew had been taken from the wreck by the Chinese, and were prisoners in the city. At Ningl - ..0 I was sorry to find another prisoner, Captain Anstruther, of the Madras Artillery, who has - since proved to me a most kind and true friend ; there was also the compradore, whem I think you have some knowledge-Of. My most cruel sufferings were now 'at an end, and of course I felt more deeply my sad loss ; yet I, knew that I still enjoyed many blessings. Captain Anstruther's prison was next door to mine, and I had the pleasure of seeing him often. The mandarins gave me. some Chinese clothes of the gayest colours. Distressing as it was to my feelings, I was ob liged to wear them, and I was put into what the keeper styled a clean prison, with a woman to attend on me in my captivity. After breakfasting with lieutenant Douglas at the mandarin's, went to my lonely cell—a small, dirty room, two sides of which were grating, in many places daylight appeared through the rafters, and it was scarcely 'fit to live in, its only furniture being my cage (in which I still slept at. night, and into which I was put whenever I went to any of the mandarins), a lamp, an old table, and a stool. For the first time after the wreck, I was enabled to undress myself. I could not but rejoice when a' large room was prepared for the three gentlemen to reside together in, Lieut. Douglas having -been hitherto obliged to endure all the discomforts of the common prison, although it deprived me of the company of my friend. Subsequently we met only .when we...visited-end dined at the -Mandarin's, which Ive did at first fFequently, but after their curiosity was satis fied I seldom saw them. When at their house they amused themselves by questioning us about her Britan nic Majesty and her Government, the number of her navy and army, and ihe rank and income of the officers, Often I had to repeat my sad tale, particularly on the arrival of other officers. Their inquiries about our re spective families were most minute ; particularly what relatives we were to Queen Victoria, and whether I my self was not her sister, which, notwithstanding what was said to the contrary, was declared to be. But it would be endless to repeat all the foolish questions they asked ; however they made notes of all our replies. Captain Anstruther was generally employed drawing ; and I am sure his great talent, as well as the patience he exhibited, often ensured us kindness. Two days after the removal of the gentlemen from the common prison, all the remaining captives were taken to a far distant gaol, under the pretence of better accommo dation, excepting two who were sick. I had the melan choly satisfaction of seeing them passing my' door, but was not allowed to speak to them. It was October the Bth that Captain Anstruther re ceived some supplies from Chusan, with letters that held out hopes of release. He kindly sent me a large share of his clothes. The compradore was now taken away' from us, which distressed me greatly, as I had now not a creature to whom to speak. They now gave me a bedstead, which I found a great luxury, having • hitherto .lain on a dirty floor. I was sometimes allowed to see and converse with the sick pri soners, and I almost felt a consolation in dwelling upon the dreadful past. . • On Sunday, the. 18th, I heard the melancholy tidings of one of our sailors being removed by the hand of death. I had seen the poor boy several dines, and, as I felt sure he could never recover, the few moments we were al lowed to speak were spent in dwelling upon solemn . sub jects. Though he was a mere skeleton, and weak as a child, still he wore his irons to the last. On the 26th we were all summoned by the superior mandarins. Clothes and letters had arrived from Chusan, clothes in abundance for myself. Among the above I re ceived a very kind note, with an acceptable present of shoes, from my friend Captain Baily. The gentlemen . received large supplies of clothes; wine, ale, and other articles, with 300 dollars from Admiral Elliot ;. and all the pristmers had clothes given to them. All the English men, except the. tiVo siolc, were present, and to our great satisfaction our fetters were struck off ; we were also in formed that we should be free within five or six days for a 'c'ertainty. Gladness then pervaded every breast but as usual, mine was mixed' with bitter grief—to think , how short a time since a happy wife 'and joyful:mother, and that I feust now return deviate and alone. How ever, I could but be thankful to be freed from my fetters, having worn them, as I imagine aright, for 32 days. tittle did I then think, that we - should be obliged still to drag on four long months of our existence in the dreary abode. Some time afterwards the two marines already mentioned were removed to the other prison. I felt sure that one of them was then dying, and I greatly feared 441*br 4,NOilk-ittrYltr'74eritrik49 , pison.. iliorweahness 1474. iii+X64olliW - that - 7h6 - once fell down - on his way, though .?"00orted by.a•Chinaman ; after a few days the - news of his death was brought to me. Notwithstanding all the representations of Lieut. Douglas, irons were not taken off this TiOor?Anan until he breathed his best. The prison Wag's . ° excessively small that they could not turn around, without squeezin...each other, and thOugh their commander remonstrated and insisted . upon their • being allowed to walk about and enjoy the fresh air, they were never permitted to take-any exercise in the court. Our joy was inexpressible, when a channel of private communication with our friends at Chusan was opened, and when I received. from you, my dear friends, the first letter (December 29), which afforded me very great con solation. Before this we heard of the death of another 1 marine, which affected us all deeply, and especially his mast6r. February the Bth, I had the pleasure of a visit from some - Chinese naval officers, who told me that we were to leave Ningpo within a fortnight. We thought there was truth in the news, but were not certain until the 14th, when I received the glad tidings from yourself. On the 22d of February, before I arose, my attendant came to my bedstead, saying, " Chiulm, Chusan, get up," and immediately the compradore called to me, saying that we were indeed to go to Chinhae. While thus en gaged he was sent for by the mandarins, who told him that he was not like - the other English prisoners ; they would therefore not allow him to accompany them, but send him down to Canton. This threw an immediate gloom over. my spirits, and I felt deeply when, a few minutes afterwards, I saw him locked up in his prison, as he had long been my friend in adversity. Captain Anstruther now insist.d upon seeing the compradore, to give him money, and, after many entreaties made to the mandarin, il - hoin he had greatly offended by withholding a picture for some unkindness shown, he at last succeeded in beating his way through the crowd. We walked a great while in the prison yard, until by dint of persever ance and much pushing among the immense crowd, we got into our palanquins. We had a guard to escort us, and, having '.crossed the river in our conveyances, I looked back, and was astounded .at the dense mass of spectators. ...Mandarins of every grade were in attend ance. Indeed theexcitement at Ningpo was indescriba ble. Our road to Chinhae led principally along the river side, and our travelling was any thing 'but comfort able, the pass being so bad that I feared our palanquin bearers would slip. When near Chinhae, one of my bearers tumbled, and the palanquin thumped on the ground. I struck my head, but the alarm was more than the in jury. I thought my troubles would not be at an end :until 'reached Chinhae. On the road we met several emissaries, urging on the bearers to use all speed, to the mutual gratification of both parties. At last we arrived safely at Chinhae, where we were received with honour by the mandarins. We had not breakfasted the gentlemen asked for food, a filthy fel" with an apron-full of cakes. Afterwards th us each a bason of meat. Captain Anstruth taken to see Commissioner E, and after rema" while he returned, telling us that we s be sent for to hear the same story namely, that we should not have come the admiral had not sent us, and that we n. turn,and tell the commanding officer he must away with all speed, and, wiihhis eomplime a great ovally soldiers were waiting to en as soon as . the English evacuated it ; but time he entreated us to labour under no a' for they had no hostile intentions. At first eluded that Lieutenant Douglas was t 3 accompany me to Chusan, while Captain Anstruther should remain and see all the men embark; but when we were with Commissioner E, Lieut. Douglas told him that Captain Anstruther had nothing to do with the people, and begged that he might be allowed to remain with his crew, and that Captain Anstruther might accompany me. It at length de termined that both the gentlemen 'should stay behind, and only Mr. Witts accompany me. Soon after I took leave of the gentlemen, and re-entered my palanquin, which , conveyed Trt , to the waterside, where the linguist presented me with a fan. On our way we were taken to the soldiers' tents, it being a late hour, and quite dark. I could see but little of them, but they appeared to be nu merous, and occupied a very large space. Every atten tion was now shown me. They carried me close to the boatside and fixed a chair in the sampan for my com fort. For some hours our boat lay at anchor to enable the other prisoners to embark, and during the night proceeded on her way to Chusan. About seven o'clock in the morning of the 26th I was once more gladdened by the sight of an English vessel. SOon after we were boarded by two naval officers, and Mr. Johnson was the dfrannityesplaenad first to welcome me to freedom. As the boat drew nmr, Captain Bourchier, of the Blonde, sent his gig to con., vey me on board, and glad indeed was I to step into it ' i l. :: ,g a h st te ed ile and thus quit for ev& a people at whose hands I had re ceived such bitter wrongs. I remained on board the Blonde ,part of the crew came safely on board. I until the arrival of my fellow-prisoners, whOM I was most : IPi tenanees .

The public will be glad to hear thst Mr. Allan Cun ningham is about, immediately, to prepare for the press a Memoir of Sir David Wilkie, from original documents supplied by the family, including the letters and papers of the artist, and the journals kept, it is said with great regularity, during his travels in Spain, Italy, and the A"projeet is also afloat for raising, by subscription, a monument to the deceased artist. We shall much re joice if this intention 133 carried into execution—we should like to see., monuments erected in this way to Ho garth,. Reynelds, and others, who have shed a lustre on Britain and British art, and we shall be quite content to begin with offering homage to the me moryof Wilkie. But let there be no . jobbing in the matter and we sound this note of warning because we have already observed certain old familiar indications which awaken suspicion. Whatever is done, let it be done in a worthy spirit, and in honour of the dead—not with reference to the. living interests and profits. Let us have a promise at starting that the work shall be open to competition--competition after exhibition of the designs, and by competent persons, to be selected by the compe titors—then we shall all put our shoulders to the wheel, and struggle zealously in the good cause. But there must be some such preliminary conditions ; for artists and the public are weary even of competition without. security for even-handed justice. What a disgraceful piece of jobbery is laid bare in the following letter, re lating to the proposed competition 'for a new church in Hyde Park Gardens : " The proceedings of the Committee, by whom the pre. liminary business was conducted, in regard to the nume rous designs sent in for their approval, were first made know to me in January, 1840, when I was informed that out of the whole number they had selected five to be submitted to the vestry for approval ; 'but of these they recommended two only as deserving attention, and that, at a Vestry convened for the purpose, a report accord ingly was made and received. One of these designs, thus recommended, was mine ; it was Gothic , and wasde signated by a blue star,—the other Grecian, the work of Mr. Lindsay, marked " Let merit bear the palm." The estimate for mine was 12,000/.; for Mr. Lindsay's 8,450/., which latter estimate being, upon subsequent examination, found inadequate by at least one-half the amount, the design was abandoned ; and recourse being again had .to the five remaining .designs sent to the Vestry, mine received the unanimous recommendation of the Committee ; but as it was considered by the Com mittee that a Grecian as well as a Gothic design should be submitted, another of the five being Grecian, and the work of Mr. Gutch, was sent with mine to a special vestry, again held to receive the second report of the Committee. And it is to the extraordinary proceed ings of this Vestry I beg more particularlY to call your . _attention. - `" Mr. Gutch was a competit9r from the first, his (a Grecian dosign,) was among the five placed before the former Vestry, and was one of the three of that live .not recommended for execution by the Committee. , But. it would appear that this latter. Vestry had resolved to exe cute this gentleman's design attany rate, for' on this occa sion, he being present, his design was re-produced, hav ing been altered from Grecian to Gothic, and in various other ways changed, to suit the views and opinions which the other and approved design had elicited during the deliberation,of the Committee. Of `these alterations, or of the intention to make them, the Committee were alike 4,43204141,i11 , 15. . - • , • • " One difficulty still remained—the estimate of cost — which, by the terms of - the original advertisement, was required to accompany each of the designs, was de clared to be insufficient to meet the expense of the alter dons which had enabled Mr. Gutch to get his design adopted. But these gentlemen, in defiance, (it is sub mitted) of fairness and consistency, were determined to support their fellow vestryman, Mr. Gutch, and adopt his design, notwithstanding their having invited competi tion. They at once, therefore, permitted him to raise his estimate from 8,6001: to 9,6001.- to carry his new plan into execution, In this manner ended the labours of the Committee ap pointed to `f advertise for, and receive and examine plans for the erection of a new church at Paddington." The Vestry rejected the design which, after long and careful scrutiny; the Committee had'selected, and they adopted, without previous examination on the part of any Com mittee, a design produced for the first time by an influen tial member of their`own body, that member being pre sent, •to aid them in their decision in his' own. favour, in total disregard of those principles of fair grid on pro feSsional rivalry by which all competitions should be guided. Yours, &c., —AthenaeUm. "LEWIS VULLIAMY." THE WEST.RIDINGB-OROUGH ELECTIONS. . We will not attempt to conceal our deep mortification and regret that the Ten Pound Constituency of Leeds should have failed in doing their duty ttt the tresent im portant crisis. The people of England looked to theni for example and encouragement, and they h five sent to Parlia ment a Tory and a bread-taxer, instead of M. Hume, one of the foremost men in the popular ranks in all Eng lafid. In the last Parliament Leeds was represented by two total repealers of the Corn-laws ; in the Parliament to come, it will be represented by Mr. Aldam, a fixed duty man, and Mr. Beckett, a bread-taxing monopolist. The position of Leeds in Parliament is therefore grQatly altered for the worse. Even at the best it will be neu tralized, and as it were, stand unrepresented in the great contest between Industry and Monopoly. It will pos sess no influence, by its votes, over the fate of the em pire. It is reduced to Parliamentary zero : it will be insufficient, neuter, nothing. We would have some difficulty in accounting for the conduct of the constituency of Leeds on this opcasion, were we not aware of the vast amount of ignorance. which prevails amongst the present electoraLclasto gether with the empty ambition which letuatemost of them, to ape, and emulate, and make common cause . with the aristocratic and Oundering classes of this country We know also that those of them who really are honest, stand . in a feaifully_ unprotected situation ; they have powerful influences to contend against, in the shape of bribery, intimidation, and coercion, and all the foul arts of corruption. The Whigs have left the franchise far too restricted, and those who exercise it by far too un protected ; the consequence has been, their present de feat and discomfiture all over the country. The defeat of the Whigs at Bradford is to be attri buted to the same causes ; and to the extraordinary exercise of corrupt influences by the Tory party. There has also been a want, of that union between the Whigs and Radicals which is now absolutely necessary in order to insure success. At Halifax the Whigs have run into the same error, and treated their Radical allies as if they were merely the passive and unreflecting instruments in their hands of securing Whig ascendency and triumph. . In the meantime the game is up. Our only move now is, to establish Radical Reform Associations all over the country, and organizing ourselves for the next grand battle between the people and the aristocracy. There will be a speedy fusion of all the popular elements of strength, immediately on the accession to power of a Tory and monopoly Government.—Leeds Times. . CORONER'S INQUEST.—A Coroner's inquest was held on Friday afternoon before Mr. Wak'ey, M.P., at the Orange-tree, Orange-street, 13loomsbury, on Joseph Rous, aged 75 years, who hung himself. Mr. John Cheetham, of 10, Kingsgate-street, Holborn, harness-maker, had known the de ceased between six and seven years. He was an organ builder, and occupied a small room on the second floor in witness's house. On his (witness's) return home at eight o'clock on Tuesday evening, his wife gave him a note, which she had found about five o'clock on the stairs. It was in the deceased's handwriting, and contained the fol lowing words :--" Mr. Cheetham, Mr. Rous will be much obliged to you if you will open his door." Witness im mediately went up stairs, snd tried the door, but as he could only partially open it, and thinking that the de ceased had put a box against it, he pushed it° violently, when it flew open, and the deceased, who was hanging to it by a rope, swung round, and came in contact with his face. Wit ness being very much terrified, had not sufficient presence of mind to cut him down. He ran into the street, and called two men, and they took him down. He was dead, but not quite cold, and a handkerchief was tied over his eyes. The deceased had been nearly three years without any employment. Ile had pawned and sold all his tools, and nearly all his clothes, and had latterly been without any means of subsistence. "IN it ness had frequently advised him to apply for paroehi d relief, but he had always said he never would, and that he would Lather hang, himself. Verdict—" Temporary insanity. I'AIRLOP FAlR.—This fair, which is annually held on the first Friday in July, on a spot of ground in Hain ault Forest, Essex, took place on Friday, and a thinner attend ance of persons was never known on a like occasion. Formerly Fairlop used to be honoured by a numerous company of fa!,hionables, and, in fact, was considered a respectable place of resort ; but of late years it has extremely degenerated, and those who assemble are chiefly of the lowest grades of society. Indeed very few respectable persons were to be seen there on Friday. A body of the metropolitan police was on the ground, apd rendered officieat aid iu presses - Tin order.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE DAILY PAPERS OF SATURDAY. CHRONICLE.—The Tories, smarting under their failure to carry the Boroughs of England by storm, of bribery, and intimidation, have resolved on a coup de main in Middlesex. We forewarn the independent electors of that county, that a plot is hatching against the " Father of the Illtse of Commons," the venerable and consistent Lib era l, George Byng. This veteran Reformer, for upwards of half a cen tury the honest and consistent representative of two genera tions of the Middlesex constituency, is to be opposed. A secret meeting of Conservatives yesterday concocted the plan. A co vert canvass has already commenced, and a fox-huntingequire is the probable Tory nominee. We have reason to believe that Reynard will be turned out of the bag to-morrow ( Sunday.) We rejoice, however, to hear that he will have' an instant and sharp run. A second candidate, in the Where] interest, will follow him without delay. We anticipate, there fore, tile return of two Reformers for Middlesex, and we urge the local committees immediately to re-organise their forces. We also warn the constituencies of every English and Welch county, re taining a Liberal candidate, tohe on their guard, and prepared for opposition. The Tories do not rely on any gain in Scotland or Ireland ; and thus grievously disappointed in the boroughs of England, they are conspiring to make up their numbers in the counties. We, therefore, earnestly advise the Li berals in the country to organise opposition, whatever their chances, wherever opposition is practicable. Let the Tories at least be made to pay for their " rotten coun ties." We point to the noble struggle now pending in South Derbyshire, where Mr. M. Gisborne is opposing Col ville and Munday. We may run the Tories out of many seats. A whistle may be bought too dear, and we know that several Conservatives will not face a contest. The Liberal gains in Bath, in Nottingham, Lewes, Hereford, Gloucester, Stockport, Preston, Walsall, Greenwich, Marylebone, Stoke, Brighton, Bolton, and South Shields—have sorely disappointed the Tory calculations. The Times and Standard pompously put for „ward their paint among venal freemen and bought watermen of the city of London ; ut Mr Walter's retreat from Moscow (Nottingham)—the great triumph over Gladstone Brothers in Walsall, and all other sickening losses of the Tories, are care fully left without comment. Wo repeat, that the ingenuous members of the Conservative clubs do not conceal their chagrin at their small success in the boroughs ; and an ex- Chancellor and his ally, a well known Quarterly Reviewer, openly express their opinion that a " working majority" for Sir Robert Peel is now not to be expected. TIMES.—Such a powerful and noble spirit now reigns throughout the land, that nothing but the grossest neglect or mismanagement of those entrusted with the details of our election interests can disappoint the expectations of honourable men, or leave the assailants of our constituti on al monarc hy a shad° vof criminal hope to rest upon. The great cause of Conservatism, supported as it is by all that is upright and intel ligent in the nation, proceeds triumphantly to its destined goal —the command of official power throughout the empire. Its course, as we have said, can be checked no otherwise than by errors of commission or omission in its appointed servants. If the means at their disposal be not put forth with energy, and directed with skill and vigilance, they are guilty of a crime amounting to no less than treason against the public weal—a crime of which an entire century may not repair the consequences. Greatly and successfully as has the Conserva tive battle during this election been fought, in many places where the promise of victory was least flattering, it must, per haps, be also admitted that where materials most abound they have not been employed.or sought for with corresponding vi gour. Wherever a strong Conservative impulse exists, it is the duty of those who undertake the guardianship of the cause to turn that right sentiment to immediate profit. Wherever men fitted for Parliamentary duty are to be found, it is the busi ness of those who constitute themselves managers of the constitutional interest to summon such gentlenten into action, and in the name of their country to clothe them with the rights, obligations, and responsible character and elevated rank of representatives of a people struggling not for mere prosperity, but for moral and political existence. We have hinted that more might have been done ere now for the metropolitan county of Middlesex than at present seems likely to he realised. We are sure that for the great and important district of West Surrey twice as much might be still accom plished as has yet, at least publicly, been proposed. Why should the excellent gentleman who has hitherto represented the Conservative electors of that all but metropolitan district, Mr. Trotter, be left any longer unaided in his arduous office by a colleague of like principles to his own ? ADVERTISER.—So far as the elections have yet pro gressed the Tories have undoubtedly gained the advantage of a few seats, a circumstance well calculated to excite as tonishment, considering the nature of the questions upon which the country has been appealed to for its decision. Stripped of the complications of financial theories and the meshes of special pleading, the great question now at is sue is whether it be more advantageous to a country drawing the whole elements of its existence from manu facturing industry and commercial enterprise, to have food and the necessaries of life from *heap or from a dear market? To facilitate the accomplishment of all things necessary . or de sirable to the existence or enjtavment of man is the great end of an elightened civilization. He who devises means for pro ducing two blades of grass where but one had previously grown, has been truly designated as a benefactor of his species. This aphorism, however, has been reversed by the monopolill ; and those who now claim the suffrages of the British constituencies in opposition to the proposed modification of the prohibitory duties, base their pretensisns to popular favour on the mon stretts,m iniquity of alio wilig thep,eople to have but•one leaf, where oth twesrfirlhe disgrace of the En;lish' constituencies these pretensions have received confirmation in the majority of elections which have as yet taken place. Yes; notwithstanding the notorious fact of the ruinous fluctuations caused by the prohibitory duties in the corn trade, whereby one (lay the market is forced t o it s maximum standard, whereat foreign corn may be admitted at the lowest duty of one shilling, which is insignificant as a matter of revenue, and the neat day the market is glutted, so as to prevent the native grower from obtaining a fair price for his produce, and even the landlord derives only a limited ad vantage compared with the evil inflicted on the rest of the community ; notwithstanding all this sacrifice of general to class interests, to the eternal shame of the borough cpnstitu encies of England, a majority has declared in favour of the faction who resist the reduction of imposts so pernicious in their operation, and so unproductive to the revenue. HERAL D. —We see, with great pain, that the Conservative cause loses in Mr. Freshfield, who is defeated at Chipping Wy combe, one of the most upright, intelligent, and useful of its advocates ; a gentleman whose rare felicity it has been to pre serve during a long Parliamentary career the respect and at tention of both parties. We fully appreciated, in his last ad dress of thanks to his former constituents of Penryn and Fal mouth, the high feeling which induced him to decline the offers of support tendered to him by the latter of these boroughs, lest his acceptance of them should seem to compromise the disinterested and public-spirited efforts he had previously made in its favour, with a view to retain its pre-eminence as a packet station. But we thought, and still think, that he carried this principle too far. The result of his appeal to the constituency of Wycombe confirms our exception to the step we speak of; and the prejudice which his party sustains by his defeat still further corroborates it. He is a person, however, who must soon, again, recruit the ranks in which his services were always so constitutional and effective. But if Mr. Fresh field have erred a little on the score of a refined feeling of delicacy and good taste, the public will be at no loss to find a compensating principle of thorough-paced, onflinching, open selfishness,—and the most intelligible type of senatorial assu rance in the person, and the epistle of Mr. Joseph Hume, the ejected of Middlesex Lthe palmed-upon Kilkenny,—the now re-jetted of Leeds. We are about to recur to a letter which we need not introduce by any such an announcement as that of the handsome robber in the play to the fair listener, "'Tie Mazzaroni,—the brigand—who sings ! " For, when WC say that we allude to the epistle of an unscru pulous state-tinker, willing to work three holes in the constitu tion rather than forbear the reforming of one which he has assisted to make himself, and wandering about the country from one constituency to another, soliciting em ployment, and professing to work at the chealg:uenoslppt employers, every body must anticipate that " Vawe the In his letter to !‘ Mr. Low, the Secretary of the Whig-Radi ""f is Joseph Hume, sirs, that sings' Wha wan i t vet r t s eh,h a sr m t eey e cals of Dundee "—( what a berth ! but, probably, no sinecure, as we supj ose that the gentleman's principles are, feworostoehdgde have sa o v s oe t f delighted part'nari n 's te in to e tiv j e cis r e e P p h rel ' e l n e t e e d d li lu D n r g i u n i llid w ee co r , i v t e e bli - t o l r ‘ was prevented from looking, - towards it by Sir Henry Parnell being_ in ig and sagacity at n e p e tt i possession.'

But it was not only by the exercise of intimid • ation upon legal voters that the Go vernment party laboured to secure that result which they regarded as vital to their character and interests. They brought to the poll persons not legally in possession of the franchise, and had them enrolled as voters in favour of Lord John Russell and the other Ministerial candidates, in numbers sufficient, we believe, not merely to make up Lord Bohn Russell's majority of nine ever Mr. Wolverley Attweod, but to make op Sir M. Wood's comparatively large majority of 298 over Mr. Alderman Pirie. We will here present to the public a small specimen of the manner in which the Minis terial party in the City of London' have procured the return of their two favoured candidates. In one small part of the com paratively small Ward of Coleman-street no less than five false votes have already been detected in Lord John Russell's poll. 1. John Sotherden Burn, No. 9,303 on register, voted for Lord John Russell upon the qualification of offices at No. 25, Tokenhouse-yard. He had removed from them seine months, and they are now in the occupation of another person. 2. Robert James Culverwell, No. 9,308 on register, voted for Lord John Russell, -upon the qualification of the houses Nos. 7 and 8, Founder's-court, Lothbury.

But if they still more perfidious are proposing to th seek to surrender w' del of our agricultu trusted to them, t] enemy I STANDARD. — is not the time for d when challenged to defend ourselves we may not shrink from the challenge merely upon the ground that it is un seasonable. Mr. Gisborne is reported to have used the following expressions at the South Derbyshire nomina tion : " And this leads me to recur to an argument of our oppo nents, who charge us with a desire to sever the interests df trade and agriculture. Truly this is a strange argument to come from them. Let me remind you of the language held by their leading organs, and of which you will find an echo in the Tory Paper of your own town. The Standard said that' if all the manufacturing towns and districts of Great Britain were engulphed in one `common ruin, it would not matter to the country.' Such is, the sentiment of the most consistent organ of the Tory pa, ty, and the Mercury of this town echoes that sen timent." With reference to Mr. Gisborne's denial, on the part of the faction to which he belongs, of any hostility to the interests of agriculture, we have to observe thqt the passage which he has misquoted from the Standard was written in reply to an assertion that England would be " a richer and happier country, if it did not grow single ear of wheat." In the next place, we must dig claim, however flattering would be the distinction, the honour of representing the Conservative party. Our opinions are oar own ; and if Mr. Gisborne has lately looked into the election reports, he might have 'seen that .we maintained this particular opinion with which he quarrels, not merely without regard to the Conservative party, but in opposition to the opinion of the only person upon whom the writer can be said to be dependent. Mr. Gisborne may not under stand this. " The sycophant and demagogue," says Aristotle, are "the same men in different situations ;" and we can easily believe that either sycophant or de magogue must pronounce it impossible for an em ployer to allow such latitude to a servant, or for a ser vant to avail himself of it ; such is, however, the case among English gent,lemen and Conservatives. Let not Mr. Gisborne, theh, charge the opinions of the Standard upon the Conservative party, unless he is willing to adopt for himself and his party, the opinion that " England would be a. richer and happier country if it did not grow a single ear of wheat." The pro position asserted by us was, however, far more restricted than.this. It did not concern manufacturers, but ma nufacturing districts—those congregations of unhappy human beings were all his monopoly—where the e combination of capitalists fixes wages at the lowest far thing, and 'even devours the profits of that farthing's worth of food by compelling the under-paid labourers to deal at its own shops—thus robbing the tradesman and retailer ,of his, legitimate gainsovhile the labourer is plundered with theta. This was the evil which the parr, graph quoted contemplated, and not the existence ek manufactures, which is hi no respect dependent upon the capitalists' combination and tally system. But had our remark been more general, had we. Said that the greatness, prosperity, and happiness of Eng land are not dependent upon her manufactures: what more should we have said than that the energies and enterprise .of: England would be hilly as prc,ductive if turned into any other channel—if directed to, coloni sation, and maritime commerce, and fishf•ries, for example. Would this be saying of mantenettires nktre than Sir Robert Stopford says of Commodore: Napier — that though his skill and gallantry were, to be acknow ledged, still his absence would not 'nave changed the event of the war ? This is what, we might say of manufactures, that without detract:llg from their impor tance, England, mistress of the sea, and of her boundless colonies, and securein her agrictult u re, a n d th e enter prise of people,. is not dependent upon manufactures for her greatness. Let Mr. Ciistrarne,.if he can, disprove this proposition ; but whether he disprove it, or subscribe to it, let him not charge it upon'. the Conservative party, but leave it with its proper owner, the writer of the Standard. COURIER.—The Ministry continue their game of making hay while the sun shines for themselves and their friends, and not the least active in this praiseworthy pur suit, now as ever, are the Elliot of the Hannibal tribe, as any one may learn who will take the trouble of turn ing to the Gazette. There it will b e found that, out of eight officers favoured with promotion to the rank of " Companions of the most Hon. 7.Ailitary Order of the Bath," two, at least, are of the countless Elliot breed, namely—Captain Sir Humphr 2y Fleming Senhouse, R.N. ; Captain Charles Ramsa y Drinkwater Bethune, R.N. For anything to the &Int nary that we know, the whole eight may be of that sari e class, regarding whose elevation, our poetic correspond ent, singing the exploits of Daniel, the great patron and - protector of Whiggery, irreverently, though prophetical ly, says, amongst other things that -4‘ He knighted the Whigs with the Devil's long tail." Both these Elliot made knights may be, and doubtless are, very gallant men, and the name of Senhouse is as suredly not unknown to fame or the profession ; but we certainly are at a loss to recollect the other knight of many names in any capacity w hate ver, unless he be the identical person once so famous: lb , : his forensic fights at Leeds, as the paid Ministe ris. l , counsel on the side and in the great cause of Strip and Billyreller v. t h e poor Facto r y Child ren.
