The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele,a, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood," is one of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able.—Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tinn in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition of the source of many of those diseases which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set down by the every-day observer as the result of common causes, such as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of tempe rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Consumption, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opprobria of medi cine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as any other class of ffections. We do not think we go too far in saying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly moral a book.—Conservative Journal. We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as well as physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will be most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in need of them.—Statesman. Messrs. Curtis and Company are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London. Country Patients are requested to be as minute as possible in the detail of their cases.—As to the duration of the cons plaint, the symptoms, age, general h a bit s o f li v i ng , and occu pation in life of the party ; the communication must be ac ompanied by the usual consultation fee of 1/., without which, no notice whatever can be taken of their application ; and in 2 11 eases the most inviolable secresy may be re li e d eta, f 1 / 4 dfr> 1 !!

By the latest information received from the Continent respecting the prices of foreign grain, it appears that the highest qufiation of whit e w h ea t o f the first quality at Hamburgh • rix dollars current the last, which answers to 60s. 7d. the quarter. The highest quotation of white wheat of the first quality in London is 78s. the quarter. It appears, therefore, that wheat is 303 per cent. dearer in _London than at Hamburgh. The highest quotation of Zealand wheat of the first quality at Amsterdam is 332 florins the last, which is equal to 535. 7d. the quarter ; and the highest price of white wheat of the first quality in London being 78s. the quarter, it follows th a t w h eat i s 45 1 per cen t. dearer in London than in Amsterdam. The highest quotation of wheat of the first quality at Stettin is 76 dollars current the wispel of 24 scheffels, which is equal to 51 s . 9d. t h e quarter, an d t h e highest quotation of whe a t i n London tieing 78s. the quarter, it follows that wheat i s 50/3- per cent. dearer in London than in Stettin ; and that w i t h t h e sum o f 3 1 . 18 s . a man may buy rather more than 12 bushels of wheat at Stettin ; whereas with the same sum he can buy only 8 bushels in London. On Tuesday evening last the members and friends of the above Society assembled at the Vestry of the Welsh Chapel in Jewin-crescent, for the purpose of testifying their respect for their Honorary Secretary, Mr. Hugh Owen, and the value which they attached to his gratuitous services, by presenting him with a piece of plate, valued at 14 guineas. The slumber collected of both sexes was about 200, and after partaking of tea, the President of the Society, Grif fith Davies, Esq., F.R.S., was called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN opened the business of the evening by acquainting the meeting with the specific object which had called them together, and spoke very highly of the valu able services of their Secretary. The object of the So ciety was, that persons might make provision for them selves or for their families. A person might provide himself all annuity in old age, might provide a sum to be paid at his death, might mae provision for children on attaining a certain age, and might also make provision against sickness. He thought that all present would agree that those objects were praiseworthy ; they were encouraged in Holy Writ, and he considered the spirit which they inculcated valuable in a national point of view ; the spirit of independence was, perhaps, the cor ner-stone of national prosperity. He thought that wherever a person, after having done all in his power to gain an independent livelihood in this world, failed in so doing, the Scriptures commanded that to him charity should be exercised; but that it would be very much like Antinomianism in religion to beget a spirit of de• pendence- —of " dependins , on Providence"—if persons failed to do all they could' for themselves. Man in his individual capacity (he said) was unable to accomplish some things which he might accomplish by joining with others. It was the duty of man to observe the laws of nature, and to endeavour to convert them to his own be nefit. Of those laws there were a great many that man had some knowledge of s the law of the seasons, the pressure of the atmosphere, and a great many others which he might name. There were, however, some ag gregate laws also which man might convert for his own benefit. What law was more determined, perhaps, than that of the near equality of the sexes? Yet nothing ap peared a greater chance than -whether a male or female should be born in a particular family. The law of mor tality was of a similar character : the time of death was uncertain to all ; yet in taking the mass of mankind in any given age, it might be predicted how many would die within a year almost with as much certainty as pre dictions could be made concerning the various seasons of the year. The same remarks might be applied to the law of sickness. It was from these laws that calculations were made, with a view of providing for the aggregate amount of sickness and death among the whole Society. After stating shortly the details of the Society, lie said it behoved those who comprised it to be cautious in the selec tion of their members as to their health and constitution. It behoved them also in looking at their funds to be very cautious that they did not draw false inferences from their accumulation. Those which were destined to pro vide for a superannuated allowance must go on accumu lating until the age at which the parties were to have the allowance. The same with respect to endowments for children. The admission of new members likewise should not be viewed in a wrong light ; they did not pay any thing to aid those who had previously joined the Society. but only helped to make a more sure average, and in their turn to form a succeeding class, that the Society, might be carried on from one generation to another. It was also to be remembered that as old age ad vanced incapacity for labour increased, and sick ness increased, and that therefore the subscrip tions which were to provide for the whole term of life, ought necessarily to be more than would cover the outgoings of the Society during the first few years of its existence. On these accounts it behoved all the mem bers not to be anxious to divide the money if it should aecumulate, but to husband sufficient for all the casual ties that might come upon them. He also hoped that some members would be found willing to fill gratuitously the different sift - ices of the Institution, either in rotation or otherwise, as the calculations did not include any pro vision for that purpose. Mr. ROBERT OWEN (Eryron Gwyllt Walia) then pro duced an elegant and massive silver teapot, and said that the duty entrusted to him on that occasion was a most agreeable one to his feelings. If he had known Mr. Hugh Owen only as Secretary to the Welsh Provident Society from its formation to that time—then nearly five years—his conduct during that period—his zeal and perseverance on behalf of the Society—would have ren dered the duty of presenting, through the Chairman, that small token of their hearty acknowledgment of his services a most pleasing one. But it happened that they were, and had been for many years, personal friends, and that circumstance enhanced the pleasure not a little of having then to unite with his brethren, the members of the Society, in paying this tribute of respect to one who had so justly deserved it. He desired from his heart long life to his friend to enjoy his reward.—(Cheers.) The recollections connected with a present of this na ture could not be unimportant. Perhaps the chil dren, and even the grandchildren, of the friend they had met to honour, looking at the handsome ves sel after lie should be gathered to his fathers, would be reminded that their parent had been respected, beloved in his day, and had been useful to his genera tion; and such recollections would doubtless tend to awaken in them a desire to walk in his footsteps and to imitate his exemplaryconduct. He adverted to the pre sent itself—and complimented the Committee on the taste and judgment they evinced, and he considered it creditable to the Society to have presented their Secre tary with an article at once useful and ornamental, and they wished, thereby, he had no doubt, to convey a wholesome lesson, that to be useful is the greatest orna ment of life. And it was not the least gratifying circum stance attending the presentation, that it was done on the same auspicious day that had given birth to a Prince of 'Wales. In the name of the members of the Society, as a small token of their esteem towards Mr. Owen, and the value they attached to his unremitting services as their Secretary, he begged his acceptance from the hands of the Chairman of the piece of plate.

The highest price of wheaten flour of the first qua lity in Paris is .63f. the 159 kilogrammes, which answers to 395. 7d. the English sack of 2801 b., and the highest price of wheaten flour of the first quality in London is 655. the sack. It therefore appears that flour is 641 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris, and that with the sum of 31. ss. a man may buy 45911 b. of fine flour at Paris, whereas with the same sum he can buy only 2801 b. in London. The price of wheaten bread of the first quality at Pa ris, is 35e. the kilogramme, which is equal to 6d. for the loaf of 41b. English weight. The price of bread of the second quality is 28c. the kilogramme, which is rather more than &id. the leaf of 41b. English weight. :MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY, TIMES.-:—Notice has been already taken of the in fluence upon the Money Market generally of the deal ings in spurious Exchequer bills, and more especially the high rate of interest occasionally paid for loans upon them during the last four or five years, but the subject is still capable of much further illustration. A letter from a mercantile firm in the north of England goes into some practical details respecting it, - and shows that to this cause is to be ascribed many of the sudden and dis tressing fluctuations in discounts which at the time ap peared to be so unaccountable. They state, that for the last 18 months they have frequently remonstrated with their brokers on the high rates charged on first class bills, and were always met with the reply " that cer tain rates were to be obtained for loans on Exchequer bills, and that they were compelled consequently to ad vance the rate on commercial paper." The cause of such high rates for loans was always a problem, the solution of which, however, the detection of this nefarious traffic renders easy enough. It is manifest that large sums must have been continually taken sip by the guilty parties, and most probably, to avoid suspicn, spread widely over the London money-market, thus producing a fictitious demand for money at high rates. Those by whom the great discount brokers are supplied with means, would learn this condition of the market, and would naturally demand higher rates than custo mary upon mercantile paper. This is a point which requires to be well considered and understood by the great money dealers, as it may tend to restore the money-market the sooner to its naturally healthy state, from which it ought never to have been disturbed. Thus it appears, on whichever side the question is viewed, what fatal consequences have followed the neg lect at the Treasury of the simple precautions necessary to guard against irregular issues ; the whole of the commercial and financial system of the country has been disturbed, and a severe retribution, it is evident, must take place upon the Government itself. Whatever punishment the ordinary course of law may award to the guilty parties for the direct offence, there will still remain, to quote the letter referred to, " a fearful reckon ing,•which no punishment or compensation can reach, for the disorganization of a market which rules all others." The feelings of men of business all over the kingdom are very strong on the subject, and they naturally and anxiously look to the Ministry now is power for the adoption of measures which may avert all risk of the re currence of so fearful an evil. _ . The stamp which is put on the authenticated Exche quer bills, although it gives them a decided value as dis tinguished from those that are yet unmarked, has not proved sufficient entirely to restore public confidence in the Exchequer bill market, even so far as those marked bills are concerned. Two of the leading brokers in that particular department of business have, it is said, re solved to abandon it, unless some new guarantee shall be found to render imitative bills impossible, a degree of certainty which they consider is by no means attained by the rude stamp at present employed. What many of the brokers seem to desire is the appointment of a testing office in the City, to which immediate reference might be made at every fresh transaction; the decision of this office to be so absolute as always to entail a Government responsibility. Such an institution many are of opinion would be the only one really calculated to restore the market, and it might be easily combined with the plans already alluded to for transferring the Exchequer bill department to the Bank of England or the National Debt-office. ei gwir Ddiolchgarwch iddo— Had fu ei rad lafur o, Dyfal einydd diffino. The SECRETARY rose, and was received with loud cheers. He said, he sincerely thanked his friends, the members of that Society, for the mark of their good feeling towards him which they had just given, and of the sense which they appeared to entertain of his very humble services. He should value that gift very highly, not because it was silver, but because it conveyed to him a testimony of the good feeling of so many kind friends towards him, and of their approbation of his conduct as an officer of their Society for a period of nearly five years. He regretted to find that he was the only one who was made the object of any particular distinction connected with the Society, because there were others equally entitled to similar marks of appro bation. He considered it his duty to state, that he, could have done nothing unless he had been ably assisted by other zealous and persevering friends. He must, in particular, name his friend Mr. John Davies, the Treasurer—(Cheers)—who and himself were, ner haps, the originators of the Society. Their President, Mr. Griffith Davies, had given them very great assistance in preparing the tables of the So ciety, and in approving of the rules, and especially in the - -weight and character which his name had afforded to the Society. He could not fail to name his friend, Mr. Robert Owen, who had said so many kind things of him that evening, in a language which some of them did not understand. It was particularly gratifying to him to receive such a token from his hands, for they had been on terms of friendship from boyhood. He ought to refer, likewise to the assistance rendered to the Society by Mr. Jenkin Jones, whose practical acquaint ance with the principles on which Benefit Societies are based, was such as rendered his aid peculiarly valuable. Several others, who had been the means of giving a be ginning to the Society, ought also, if time permitted, to be named. It was to him (Mr. Owen) a matter of sur prise that such a Society had not been originated long before, for they were in London a very large body, es timated by some at about forty thousand. Ho alluded to the peculiar difficulty they had to contend with, from the fact of many of those for whose benefit it was formed being indifferent to the advantages held eut. That cir cumstance had in some degree discouraged them, but as they went on they found that they grew in strength ; and he was glad to say that they were continuing to increase in numbers.—(Cheers.) Mr. Owen stated that the Society was formed in January, 1837, and the rules enrolled in the month of March, 1838 ; the number of the benefit members was at present 63, of honorary members 12, making a total of 75. Four of the benefit members had died since th e formation of the Society. The total amount received from the pre miums of the benefit members, and from the interest of monies in the savings' bank, was 1741. 15s. .The total amount paid to sick members, and to the relatives of de ceased members, was 941. ss. ; giving a balance of 801. 10s.—assuming that there was no other fund than that formed by the premiums of members. By the aid, however, of the surplus fund, which was formed by the subscriptions of honorary members.,i and the profits of excurs ions, the actual balance now n hand, after paying all the expenses of the Society, was upwards of 1001. He also stated that fifteen new members had been added during the present year. He concluded by again sin cerely thanking them fo r th e kind take n of their regard towards him, stating that it would stimulate him, he hoped, to greater exertion on behalf of the interests of the Society than he had hitherto manifested. H e was induced origina ll y to lay his hand to the work from a sense of duty, but he felt now that a sense of gratitude would compel him to persevere.

The Three-and•a- Half per Cent. Stocks were less dealt in. For immediate transfer Consols realised 89 to 89+, and for Account 89+ to 89k, Exchequer Bills were in brisk request at 13s. to 10s. prem., for those stamp©d as genuine; both large and small loans in the Stock Exchange were obtained at four per cent. upon the deposit of this security. Bank Stock was worth 164 to 165, and India Stock 245+ to 2461. The New Three-and• a-Half per Cents. were were 991 to 99k. The Foreign Market was very quiet, and no alteration occurred in prices requiring special comment.

Paris was 25f 671 c. to 72ic. ; Hamburgh, 13 10 to ; and Trieste, 9 53 to 54. CITIZENS ENNOBLED, &c.—The following notice of citizens who have been ennobled will probably be considered interesting at the present moment. John Coventry was an opulent mercer of the City of London, and Mayor in 1425. From him is descended the pre sent Earl of Coventry. Sir Stephen Brown, Mayor in 1438, and again in 1448, was a grocer, and gave to us another peer, in the person of Sir Anthonyßrown, created Viscount Montague by Philip and Mary in 1554. The Legges rose to be Earls of Dartmouth. The gallant sea officer, George Legge, was the first who was nobilitated, Bullet], Mayor in , rY Earl of Wiltshire, ° f a a ffs ther to Queen Eliza- , created Earl of Dartmouth in 1682. Ile was descended from one who was Lord Mayor of London in 1347, and in 1354, having, by his industry as a skinner, at ftl:4tishnBe;drwo.tfaosAgngrrneaeaot Bd fualti wealth. ner, a tnod S ,gr i r rha G onm e d beth, the highest genealogical honour the City ever pos sessed. Sir Baptist Hicks was created Vi scount Camp den ;he was a mercer. The Capels, Earls of Essex, are descended from Sir William Capel, draper ; he was Lord Mayor in 1503. Edward Osborne, cloth-worker, was Lord Mayor in 1502—he gave o r i g i n to the Dukes of Leeds. From Sir William Craven, merchant-tailor, Mayor in 1611, sprung the Earl Craven. Lord Viscount Dudley and Ward is descended from William Ward, a wealthy goldsmith of L ondon, and j e weller to Henrietta Maria, Queen of Cha rles L Higgs, the Co roner f or W est - C ORO NER'S INQUEST .— Last evenina an in quest was held at the si g n of the Life-Guardsman, Thomas Spredrow , t he Beadle of lini ghtsLridge, pro duced for the inspec tion of the Jur y a L eghorn bonnet, West minster, Knightsbridge,s ter, on view before fooref the body of a f ema l e un k nown. trimmed with green watered silk, a black lace veil, and a pair of black kid gloves, found on the banks of the River, and which are supposed to have belonged to the deceased, also a pair of gold ear-rings, two gold finger• rings (one plain, and the other set with six pearls and a turquoise in the centre), and a platted hair neck-chain with gold snaps and four slides, which were found about the person of the deceased. The Jury then proceeded to view the body, which is that of a female about twenty or twenty-five years of age, of rather stout make and short stature, dark hair and fresh complexioned. One of her fingers was much marked by needlework. She had on a muslin gown with light pink shaded flower, white petticoat, a rod chequered shawl, very fine white cotton stockings, and a pair of nearly new winter boots edged and lined with fur ; her apparel was of the best quality. There were no marks of violence about the body. The Coroner said that through the Medium of the public papers no doubt, the relatives or friends of the deceased would be found. Verdict—Found Drowned. The flannel petticoat of the deceased w as marked S. 8., Ncto "frt/J.,- ~~~ ~~ .- ?RICE 5d Hence the introduction of marine insurance. At length the principle was extended to the life of man, and to the casualties of sickness and old age, which was the principle, in fact, on which their Society was founded. He would particularly urge upon the mem bers of the Society the absolute necessity of a continuous infusion of new members, without which it would neces sarily did a natural death. He would also urge upon them to watch jealously the proceedings of the Com mittees and the leading members ; for (said he) you d.in Owen cannot always gu aran t ee t h e conduct of your affairs abyloi a n is Mr. ne a an g d reat a m M e r a . sur j e ohn theexisenc Davis, t to of the Society, an d w h o h ave devoted much time, and displayed great zeal, in conducting it to its present apparent prosperous condition. He would mention a circumstance which bad come to his know ledge that day, as showing the absolute necessity of per sons entering Societies of this description while young. A person of the name of Thomas, a carpenter, who, he believed, was known to most of them, and who had al ways been considered an industrious and well behaved man, but who had neglected to join a Benefit Society, had met with an accident, which deprived him of the means of obtaining his livelihood. He was now resident in an hospital, and he had been informed that the Rev. Mr. Williams had made an application to the Religious Society of this place on his behalf. He (Mr. Jones) could not help regretting that this unfortunate individual should be obliged to ask charity from persons, many of whom were themselves paying to cover their own risks, when that individual might himself have provided for the calamity which had now befallen him. Mr. Jones then proceeded to animadvert upon some observations which had been made at a previous meeting by the Rev. Mr. Williams, on the comparative value of Benefit Societies, and Saving Banks, which he regarded as calculated to pro duee an unfavourable impression on the minds of the audience with reference to the advantages to be derived from Benefit Societies a he was induced particularly to speak on that point, as he knew that any observa tions and advice emanating from that Reverend Gentleman, he being one of their pastors, would have very great weight. He (Mr. Jones) would certainly advise, and he thought that the Chairman would concur with him, that provision should first be made to cover the contingencies to which they were all liable ; and that after that had been done, whatever surplus funds might be possessed by the members, would be very advantage ously deposited in a Savings' Bank. The speaker then remarked on the extraordinary difficulty experienced in inducing persons to join the Society—and observed that we are commanded to love our neighbours as ourself ; but he could not conceive how a man could do that and run the risk, or even contemplate the idea, of dying and leaving a wife and children dependent upon the cold charity of friends and the world. He felt he was oc cupying the time of the meeting, but he would, never theless, say a great deal more if he thought it would have a good effect ; but he would only observe, in con clusion, that he himself could not conceive that man to be a conscientiously religious man who neglected those things, for it was distinctly stated in one of the com mandments, that the Lord our God was a jealous God, visiting the sins of the father upon the children, unto the third and fourth generation of those that hated him and kept not • his commandments. Now he was well aware that it was the fashion of sceptics and infidels to dispute the justice of that command, but the punishment threatened was not to be regarded as a direct punishment. It was not the transportation of a son for the robbery by the father, but it was the evil arising as the natural consequence of the father's sin ; and who can tell the extent of injury to the third and fourth generations, to that man's children who is im provident, and neglects providing fbr his family in the event of his early death ; and, on the other hand, in the fulfilment of the remainder of the Commandment, " And I will show mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments ?" Who can tell the extent of the blessings to, and the prosperity of, the future generations of children of those parents who have obeyed the Commandments, and have consequently, among other things, discharged their duties, as parents, in providing for their children to the best of their means, so as to enable them to be independent, and to hold their heads up as decent and respectable members of society ? Mr. Wm. MOaGAN addressed the meeting in Welsh ; after which he made a few observations in English, stating that he was aware that a great portion of the meeting did not understand the Welsh language. He remarked on the additional interest which was given to the meeting by the presence of so many ladies. He said it was impossible, when ladies and gentlemen met together, for a very great attraction not to be produced; and where ladies and gentlemen thus saw each other, it might lead to their going to church togetber—(Laughter) and thus ',promoting the objects of the Society, by en rolling themselves amongst its members. He had no doubt that the Society would continue to flourish, and he heartily wished it success. The Rev. WILLIAM WILLIAMs was then called upon to address the meeting, and stated that he must have been altogether misunderstood by his friend, Mr. Jenkin Jones, in the allusion which he had just made. As far as he could recollect, he (Mr. Williams) had said that he certainly approved of such societies as benefit societies, and should himself be a member of one, be cause he considered them essential societies ; but, at the same time, he intimated that he should not only be a member f a provident society, but should also lay a little money iii the Savings Bank, that he might be enabled from the one and the other, in times of difficulty, to relieve himself. He would say, by all means be a member of this Provident Society, for it was the very thing to support the spirit of independence which their worthy Chairman had recommended. His aim was to be independent—and yet depending entirely upon Divine Providence ; he hoped and trusted that Welshmen as well as any body else, would be independent, dependent only upon the blessing of Gcd.—(Cheers.) He would just make one other re mark which had occurred to him, which was that when it was urged that great care should be taken that the members admitted were healthy members, it had struck him what must become of the delicate and the infirm. Should another Society be formed to support them, or would that healthy Society reach out a hand to them. He should propose that ne one should be rejected except the drunkard. lie concluded by saying that he hoped the blessing of Providence would rest upon their heads. Mr. J. JONES requested to offer a few words in expla nation. He stated that on the former occasion Mr. Wil liams had addressed the meeting in Welch, and the mis take under which he (Mr. Jones) had laboured, with re spect.to what he had said, must be attributable to his not understanding the Welsh language so well, perhaps, as lie ought to do ; but lie was not sorry that he had fallen into a mistake, for it had brought his friend out, and lie was sure that the observations he had made this evening would do the Society more good than any which had fallen from any member of the Society. He would, however, with all due respect to his friend, put himself in antagonism to him again. He (Mr. Jones) knew that a great deal too much sympathy existed in the Club already. Benefit Societies were not made for those in a weakly condition, they were only made for the strong and healthy. The tables were cal culated upon the average chances of sickness among those who were strong and healthy, and to afford them the means while young and healthy to provide against the casualties of sickness and old age. Mr. OWEN WYNNE THOMAS addressed the meeting in Welsh. Mr. JAMES, in addressing the meeting, said that it was one thing for which the Welsh were to be blamed that Societies like .the present were not more general, and that other demonstrations of public spirit in London or elsewhere had not been evinced ; and he considered that want of spirit to be a reason of the degree of contempt, if he might use so harsh a word, in which the Welsh were held among other nations. He was quite sure that there did exist in the Welsh a great deal of spirit, but from some cause or other that spirit was not manifested. Mr. Maso, an Honorary Member, being called upon to address the meeting, stated that it afforded him as much pleasure, he was sure, as it did any individual present to have witnessed the mark of esteem which had been shown to their respected Secretary. H e was glad to hear of the steady though gradual increase of the benefit members, because he considered it was upon those members alone that the Society ought to depend, and not upon the casual accessions to their funds which might be reaped from excursions and from the sub scriptions of honorary members. He therefore trusted that that meeting, as had been the case with previous meet i ngs , would have a b ene fi c i a l effect in producing the increase in the number of thos e mem b ers The Rev. P ICHARD JONES • Welsh. addressed the meeting in A rote of thanks to the Chairman for the kind sup port which he had afforded the Society from its com mencement, and for the able manner in hw ic the chair had been filled that evening, was moved by Mr. 0. by r. LOYD, and carried unanimously. and seconded L unanimously. The CHAIRMAN, in returning thanks, said that although he knew it was customary, and did not elis pate its being done with a good intention and good feel ing, yet for his part he would rather never have a vote of thanks passed to the Chairman when he was in the chair. llowever he would not trespass on their time by making a speech, but would only say that whatever ser vices he had been able to render to the Society, as he had done heretofore so he would endeavour to do in future.—(Cheers.) Themeeting then separated. MOTHER AND DAUGHTER BURNT TO DEATH.—An inquest was held on Monday last, at Bevercotes, near Tuxford, over the bodies of Elizabeth Whittington, aged 52, and Elizabeth Whittington, the younger, aged 15. The daughter, who was an idiot, was, on Sunday last, left in the h ouse b y her mother whilst she went to feed her pig, and, on her return. she found her enveloped in flames ; as soon as the girl perceived her mother returning she ran up to her, and, in endea vouring to extinguish the flames, the mother's clothes caught fire—their sh rieks w ere h eard by a neighbour, Mrs. Baker, who ran to their assistance, when she saw the poor idiotic girl burnt to death, and lying on the fear, and the Tother trying to stop the progress of the flames by pumping water over herself. The poor woman lingered in a state of extreme suffering until evenin g, w h e n she expired. Verdict, Accidentally burnt to death. _—Nottingham Review. ,/fli ~~,e2 EVENING SUN. S HIPWRECK—HEROIC CONDUCT (From the South African Commercial Advertiser of September 8.) On Saturd a y l ast the Prince Rupert, from London, with passengers and cargo for New Zealand, in entering Table Bay, about nine o'clock in the evening, ran aground on Mouille Point, stuck fast, and will be a total wreck. When the Prince Rupert struck, about fifteen minutes past nine o'clock, she was, on firing a gun, observed from the Bucephalus, Indianian, at anch or about two miles from the point, within the Bay, and a boat under the orders of the chief officer, Mr. John R.Merewether, put off to render assistance. Mr. Merewether succeeded during the night in making three trips between the wreck and the Buce phalus, bringing oft thirty of the people, besides others that he put on board the boats that were near him, at different periods of the night. About five o'clock, fancying that some person still re mained on board the Prince Rupert, Mr. Merewetherpro ceeded to the wreck a fourth time, with a crew of seven men, the surgeon of the Prince Rupert, and Mr. Frood, a passenger, whom he had previously brought on board the Bucephalus. When they came under the stern of the wreck, a short sea broke over the boat, and nearly filled it, and the succeeding wave upset her, and this gallant and humane young officer, with three of his crew and Mr. Frood, perished in the surf among the rocks. It is impossible to express the grief which the un timely death of this excellent young man has caused on board the Bucephalus, where his talents, his many ac complishments, and his most noble and generous dispo sition had made him the object of universal respect and affection. Of him and of Mr. Fulcher, the Commander, the numerous and most respectable company of passen gers by the Bucephalus, speak in the highest ter of esteem ; and Mr. Fulcher laments the loss of his first officer and friend as the severest calamity that could pos sibly have befallen him. _ _ _ Mr. Merewether was in his twenty-fifth year. He' was the son of Mr. Sergeant Merewether, Whitehall place, London. His body was found in the course of Sunday, and buried on Monday last, being attended to the grave by a large number of the inhabitants of Gape Town, as well as by his companions and friends of the Bucephalus. His friends in England will have the consolation of learning that Mr. Merewether met his fate in the dis charge of a humane and gallant attempt to save human life, and to mitigate human suffering ; and we would take the liberty of suggesting that, at a tribute to Virtue and gallantry, a monument should mark his final resting place. Subscriptions for this purpose, we have not a doubt, would instantly be filled up. DREADFUL STRUGGLE WITH A ROBBER. Between ten and eleven o'alock on the night of Tues day, Mr. J. Dixon, of Ranefurth, was returning from market in his gig. On arriving at Felton-hill, he was accosted by a man dressed as a farmer, who asked if he would " give him a cast downward ?" Mr. Dixon as sented, and took the man into the gig. He proved an: agreeable companion, and chatted away pleasantly on: agricultural prospects, the markets, the Corn laws, Bce.,. on all of which topics he appeared to be well conversant- On arriving at the cross-road leading to Raneforth, Dixon inquired which way the stranger was going, mating that his (Mr. Dixon's) road lay to the right. Tile_ man replied that he was going to Hillwood, and thy. he would alight. He accordingly got out of the gig, and after wishing Mr. Dixon a good night walked off bskly along the main road. The man had scarcely proceeded twenty yards, when Mr. Dixon, in adjusting the skirts of his great coat, discovered that his pocket-book, contain ing 1391. in bank-notes and checks, was missing. Feel ing confident that he had the pocket-book in his possession a short time previously, his suspicion fell on his late companion, and ha immediately drove after him, his person being still visible on the road. The man turned as the sound of the gig-wheels reached his ears, and then running a short distance sprung over a gate into an adjoining field. Mr. Dixon reached the gate in a few moments, and springing from his gig rushed across the field in pursuit. The fugitive gained the hedge at the opposite side of the enclosure, but the hedge being ex tremely high and thick set, he was baulked in his at tempts to break through it. Mr. Dixon came upon him, and a desperate struggle took place. Mr. Dixon demanded his pocket- book, when the fellow, with the ferocity of a bull-dog, sprung at his throat, which he seized with an: iron grasp; at the same instant giving Mr. Dixon several tremendous kicks, which brought him to the ground, the man falling heavily on him. However the shock of the fall released his grasp on Mr. Dixon's throat, and that gentleman, who is a powerfully-built and active man, managed to raise himself on his knees. Before he could recover his I'm* lie received a severe blow over his left eye from a large stone, which, it is supposed, the fellow had picked up during the struggle, and was again knocked down, dragging the man along with him. At this juncture, the sound of approaching wheels was heard on the road, and Mr. Dixon called out " Murder several times, upon which the man struggled violently to release himself, striking Mr. Dixon several blows on the face and head with the stone, and at last succeeded, in breaking away, just as two men came to Mr. Dixon's assistance. The men who arrived thus opportunely commenced a pursuit after the retreating robber, but he* succeeded in effecting his escape. In making a search alter the unfortunate gentleman's hat, which had fallen from his head in the struggle, one of the men, to tile, great surprise and joy of Mr. Dixon, picked up the* missing pocket-book, which had doubtless dropped frorne the robber's possession during the conflict. lir. Dixon's, face and head are severely cut, and his legs dreadfully: bruised from the kicks he received ; but he managed to , drive to his own residence, after having liberally re warded the men whose timely aid probdly saved him from being robbed, if not murdered.—Don aster Gazette.
