It is clear that, however commercial treaties Fr . ench, arid the bean w orded, the freedom of trade will depend entirely on . tiel3_Oud.will of the Government.

This post takes home the Pacha's acknowledgment of the , London address. I annex a copy of his Excellency Boghos Bey's letter. The London address I sent you by the Oriental. The Lotus steamer was unfortunate in her nrst trip. Her voyage from Atfe to Cairo occupied 32 hours. She was de famed in Cairo 21 hours for a supply of coke, 13 hours of which time the passengers were on board waiting her de parture. The coke ought to have been waiting her arrival in Cairo. Her voyage back from Cairo to Atfe, with the cur rent, occupied 22 hours. The consequence of these delays was, that all the passengers by her, each way, lost their pas sage ; those from Suez arrived about four hours after the Oriental had left, and, owing to the French steamers not taking passengers, will be detained a msinth in Egypt. The Oriental and Peninsular Steam Navigation Company have acted unadvisedly in running the Lotus themselves ; they had far better leave the transit through Egypt entirely in the' hands of those who have had so much practical experience in working it, limiting themselves to assisting them if necessary, instead of opposing them in any part of the route. " The undersigned is expressly charged by his Highness the Viceroy to testify to the merchants, bankers , a nd other persons of consideration of the city of London, the satisfaction felt on reading the address they have kindly directed to him. " His Highness the Viceroy rejoices to see his intentions ap preciateil he his always thought that the more difficult the circumstances, the more necessary is it to guard against any impassioned influence, and that humanity and justice are the surest guides in similar occasions. Hi s Hi g hness cannot know whether his conduct in this respect will bear the fruits that are hoped from it, but the conviction of having fulfilled his duties as a man and as a governor, suffices to procure him that tran quillity of soul which is the gteatest happiness in this world. " The undersigned thanks, on the part of his Highness the Viceroy, the merchants,bankers, and other persons of considera tion of the City of London, for the good wishes which in their address relate to his person, his family, and the countries to which they dedicate their career. His: Highness hopes for the realization of these wishes in the concu rr ence of all well intentioned men. " The undersigned avails himse lf of this opportunity to offer the homage of the high consideration with which he has the honour to be their very obedient and very humble servant, Alexandria, May 25.

HAMPTON RACES. The Stewards on investigation have directed the Free Cup, run for on the last day, to be given to Mr. Saudilands, the owner of BATH ELECTION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Bath, June 22, 1841. St a,—From what has within these few days past been stated in the daily papers, it would appear that the Chartists of Bath had waived the Charter, and joined the Whigs in the cry for '6 Cheap Bread and Cheap Sugar." A sweet bait, truly, but it won't suit our palates just now. Some busy bodies, em ployed. we suppose, as correspondents to these papers, have got the editors to assert in their leang articles, that we are ling-judging, of course, by the steps we intend taking at the coming contest —to be content with as much as we can get under present circumstances. Now, as such an implication is liable to be misconstrued by, and thence to create and strife among, our Chartist brethren, we beg to declare to them and to the world that hat we s h a ll not be content w ith an y thin g less than the Charter , t the cry for cheap bread and cheap sugar has not deluded us ; but that the Whigs of Bath have pledged themselves to vote for our man in case we will vote for their's, on this ground they have united with us, and on this ground we intend to go with them. We are friends to no party hostile to cheap and responsible Government. Our present object is to benefit the people, not to sacrifice, them. In Bath we are strong, and we wish to employ our power usefully. Let no man meddle with our business, who is un acquainted with the circumstances in which we are placed. There shall be no compromise of principle, no wavering from the Charter, on our part.

DEPARTURE OF THE TRAFAL GAR FOR SHEERNESS. WOOLWICH, JUNE 22.—About ten minutes before two 1 o'clock today this magnificent vessel, with the Royal Stan (lard of England,-and the Admiralty ar.d other flags waving in the breeze, in the same positions as they were when she was lannehed, commenced her progress down the river, towed by the Salamander frigate en her larboard-side, and Monkey steam-vesscl on the starboard-side, and the Metoor steam-ves sel right a-head. On her departure numbers Of persons, who visited Woolwich to day for the purpose of seeing her, and the workmen in the yari, gave three hearty cheers, which were repeated along the wharfs, which were crowded, as she slowly passed them, the tide being at the time running up. On pass workmenin t Royal Aseal she was again cheered b the numerou employed in that large n aval and Military establish ment. It is a very gratifying eircumstance connected with the launch of the Trafalgar that in no part of her timbers did she yield three-quarters of an inch, an unparalleled event in the annals of ship -building, many frigates, and even smaller vessels,having yielded eight or nine inches or. such occasions, as has been as certained by the plans usually adopted to ascertain their strain. The Trafalgar is a master-piece of art, and her elegant propor tions afford convincing proofs of the superiority of British naval architecture. Shortly after her Majesty left the royal stand, in which was around table, on the c entre of which w as a handsome vase con- taming a nosegay, the ladies in the adjoining scats entered and became possessed of the flowers, and it was amusing to witness the anxiety to possess t smallest portion, sometheir ly and more fortunate companions.

The whole population of the place and neighbourhood went out to meet he, and es corted her home with every token of the most affectionate welcome. The Nehess shed tears at this kind demonstration. THE SUN, LONDON, WUDNESDAY, JUNE 2 3 1841 COURT OF COMMOis FLEAS (Before Lord Chief Justice. Noit. and % Special Jury.) GIBSON AND CAMPBELL V. JAMES BRAND, OF THE FIRM OF HARVEY BRAND AND CO. This cause began on Saturday, the 19th June, and lasted three days. Sir F. Pollock, Mr. Sergeant Bornnas, Mr. N.D. Hill/ and Mr. Corrie, were Counsel for the plaintiffs; Sir W. Follett, Mr. F. Kelly, and. Mr. Sergeant Channel', were Counsel for the defendant. The action was brought for the infringement of the plaintiffs' patent granted to them for a new or improved process or manu facture of silk. - Several witnesses were called on the part of the plaintiffs, who proved that the invention was never heard of until after the plaintiffs' patent, that it was useful, and had become of great importance. The witnesses for the defence spoke to a series of experiments in 1819,1825, and 1831, made by differentpersons, but it did not turn out that what they did was carried to a successful result. The Learned JUDGE summed up the evidence, and the Jury retired to consider their verdict about ten o'clock at night on Tuesday, the third day, and declared the following verdict : The defendant was guilty of the infringement; that the in. vention was useful ; that the specification was sufficient; that the plaintiffs were the first who successfully applied the inven tion ; that the invention is not a new but an improved process. —Verdict for the plaintiff. AMM.II FOREIGN EDUCATION. (From the Times.) The following atrocious case may serve as a pendant to the account of the school at Boulogne which appeared in the. Times last week, and it is to be hoped that it will also serve as a warning to parents who think of sending their children abroad for education: — In the yeai 1836, a certain Mrs S. who had previously kept a school in the. neighbourhood of Chelsea, quitted England, and went to Boulogne, with the alleged design of opening a school there. This _woman, on her arrival, took the name of L., with the view, as she pretends, of con cealing her retreat from her husband, to whom she had been married more than twenty years, and by whom she had had several children. Her family at Boulogne consisted of herself, one of her daughters, .(married to a Mr. L.), and a young girl, whom we shall only designate by the name of Ellen. This young girl had been intrusted to her by a gentleman who has for many years held a situation under Government, and who, having been acquainted with Mrs. S. from her childhobd, had iinplitit confidence in her, and thought he could not place his • young ward Ellen in better hands. At Boulogne Mrs. S. formed an acquaintance with a Mr. R., and in the month of March, 1838, she Went with him to Folkestone, and was there married to him, he being then just 22 years of age. Mr. S. was then, and still is, living in London. This re spectable schoolmistress had now three names. To Ellen's guardian she was only known as Mrs. S.; to the bankers, who paid her her quarterly bills, she was Mrs. L.; and to all the world in France, who knew anything of her, the was Mrs. B. About this time she received a second pupil, Selina F., from England, the daughter of a respectable trades man ; and with these two pupils she went to Paris, and opened a day school for poor children. About the middle of February last a report was circulated that these two children, aged respectively fifteen and fourteen, had been prostituted, an inquiry was made, and the result was, that Ellen, the elder girl, stated to two women that Mrs. L. had taken her to the house of the Baron de St. H., and there, in spite of her cries and resist ance, actually held her down on the sofa while the Baron violated her person. The younger child, Selina, said that she also had been taken by Mrs. L. to the same place, and a scene of horrors, such as cannot le penned, took place between the unhappy child, Mrs. L. and the Baron. An information was lodged ; Mrs. B. left Paris, taking Ellen with her. Mrs. L. was arrested, and Selina F. was taken by a charitable Italian lady. The Baron was not arrested. A month passed over, and the per sons who had lodged the informations, finding that every possible intrigue was set on foot by the Baron's friends to stifle the business, applied to some English gentlemen, who took the matter up warmly. Mean while, Mrs. B. had returned to Paris, but Ellen, who had known no other protectress than Mrs. 8., had been so well tutored that she declared all her previous state ment to be false. As soon, however, as it was known that other persons had taken up the business, Mrs. B. was arrested, and Ellen was taken into the Ay - slum for British Orphans. There it was found that she had been in every way neglected ; she could scarcely read or write--she had had no kind of religious instruc tion, having never entered a Church but .once since she had been in Paris, and the only clothes she possessed were the few rags she had on her ; she had not even a change of linen. As soon as she was ex amined by the Judge, after she had been thus removed from the contact of her former acquaintances she came nearer the truth once more—she declared that the Baron had attempted a rape in Mrs. L.'s presence, but had not succeeded. Her guardian's name being now discovered,• he was immediately informed of the business, and at once went to Paris, and as soon as she saw him she told him the whole truth, just as she had originally told it, and added that her motive for concealing it was the desire she had of saving Mrs. B. The other child never varied in her tale ; yet the Baron was not arrested, and the Juge d'ln struction, who had the case before him, told one of the gen tlemen who conducted the business, that many persons had solicited in his favour, and among others he named one who is himself a Mag istrate, and who even occasionally s i ts on the bench as a Judge (juge suppliant). Mrs. S. alias B. has been set at liberty within these few days, the Chambre du Conseil (which answers - in some respects to our Grand Jury) having decided that there was not sufficient evidence of her complicity. The Baron and Mrs. L. have been sent before the Police Correctionelle, and are to be tried on Tuesday next. The Baron is still at large I They have so managed matters that their abominations are not called crimes, otherwise they must have gone before a jury but they have been fixed down to what they here call delits, little peccadilloes, or frailties, which are brought before cor rectional courts. However, the matter cannot end here, as the gentlemen who have taken the matter in hand are determined to leave no stone unturned in obtaining j us ice, irrespective of the rank or condition of the parties. ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SO CIETY. Preparations, on a most extensive and magnificent scale, are in active progress for the grand meeting of the Royal Agricultural Society on the 21st, 22d, and 23d of next month. The assemblage of noblemen, gentlemen, and others connected with, or interested in, agricultural pursuits, will assuredly be the greatest that ever yet oc curred in this, or, indeed, in any other country in the world ; and the show of horses, cattle, and other live stock, and of roots, seeds, and instruments of husbandry, will doubtless be of commensurate excellence, the pre miums and the honours of successful competition being such, that every hill and valley in the United KinCrclom will be brought into requisition to send their choicest and their best. We heartily congra tulate the members and friends of the Society on the success which has hitherto marked their exertions to promote the useful and most indispensable science of agriculture, and on the still brightening prospects that open to their view. The first great meeting was held in Oxford, in 1837 ; the second at Cambridge, in 1840 ; the third is appointed for this town ; and the fourth will, we learn, be at BristoL The show rpf Stock, &c., is ad vertised for three successive days but will probably be c ontinued for a week. There will ' be two grand festive entertainments on the occasion, if not, indeed, three, should the accommodations prepared, great as they aret be found inadequate for the gratification of so large a body of guests. The first is fixed for Wednesday the 21st of July. The show ground is in Windsor, in the immediate outskirts 'of the town. It is nearly square, being 550 feet in length, from north to south, and 491 in breadth from east to west. Its boundaries are Upper- Parliament-street on the south ; Sandon-street (and Falkner-square) on the east ; Canning-street en the north ; and Bedford-street on the west. It is nearly on a dead level, it is of a light sandy soil, for the most part covered with grass. A better site could not have been chosen, and the approaches to it are wide and numerous, so that all contusion will be avoided. The area will comprise no fewer than thirteen very long sheds or tents, of woodwork, covered with canvas, prepared on purpose, with wide avenues between them, and so arranged that each department will be separate and distinct. The portion appropriated to the exhibition of implements of husbandry, &c., is on the side next to Canning-street, and contains four sheds, running parallel east and west , the whole width • of the ground, is 494 feet. These are each 16 feet wide, and the pillars that support them, back and front, are 12 ' feet asunder. The avenues between are 20 feet wide. The remainder of the ground is occupied by nine sheds, running parallel from north to south, between Sandon street and Bedford-street. These are each about 500 feet in length. Five of them on the west side will be fitted for the reception of cattle and horses, and four of them on the east side for sheep and . pigs. The avenues between these will be 39 feet wide. Accom: modations will also be made for the exhibition of roots, vegetables, grain, seeds, &c. &c. The carpentry in these extensive erections is good and uniform, and when the sheds are filled with cattle, &c., and the avenues crowded with spectators, the whole will present a scene . of great individual as well as national interest. The quantity of timber required is necessarily immense, and considerable waste is unavoidable. The Pavilion, is by far the largest, and most unique in design, that has ever been constructed in this town. Though having ex teriorly twenty-four sides, it appears, from the obtuse ness of the angles, and the great area which it covers, to be round. It form is described within a circle of 123 feet in diameter. The height of the outer wall appears to be about 14 feet, the next circle of pillars about of 35 feet, and the inner pillars about 42 feet. The roof will rise above the latter in a conical form 12 or 13 feet to its apex, so that the central elevation - mill be little, if at all, short of 60 feet. This building, as well as the erections on the show-ground, was undertaken.by Messrs. Samuel and James Ilohne, of Seel-street, the only parties, in deed, in this locality, who could have undertaken a con tract of such m agnitude. —Liverpool Chronicle. THE LAUI4CH or H.M.S.

SIR,—It being now perfectly well understood that the Livery of London are determined to return Lord John Russell at. the• head of the poll, with the other Liberal candidates, and by a very large majority ; therefore, al though the Reform interest has very much increas'd generally throughout England since the important ques tion of an alteration in the Corn-laws was first made known to the public by the plan of the present Govern ment, I beg leave to suggest that that excellent and venerable true old English gentleman, Mr. 13yng, ought certainly to have a Liberal representative returned with him. Middlesex should not be without two candidates, who will support Reform and the Repeal of Taxation, which presses so unjustly on the voters and resources of • the country. If the electors • return, with-Mr. Byng,an other honest Reformer, they would be -benefiting the pub : lie at large, and add honour and consequence to the consti tuency of the great metropolitan county. L et them present a requisition to their old and excellent represen tative, and true Reformer, Joseph Hume, or some other gentleman of ability, who possesses the confidence of the Reformers generally. I remain, Sir, yours, Scc. L. C., a Liveryman of London. June 22, 1841. - - - - WAKLEY FOR FINSBURY. THE QUESTION AT ISSUE. SIR S I trust from the very great circulati9n of your paper you will excuse my requesting you to give a pro minent place to the following extract from Mr. Waklev's spirited address to the electors of Finsbury. It is ae voutly- to be hoped that it will confront the upholders of the accursed bread tax (whether Whig or Tory) at every hustings in the empire. " The question to be put to the people by the Sove reign will be this—Are you content to be taxed to the extent of many millions sterling, for the purpose of , raising money to be handed over to the owners of the land ?" As the Tory press has so often lauded and compli mented Mr. Wakley for the manly and independent course he has pursued in Parliament, their particular attention is respectfully solicited to this paragraph. Your obedient servant, THOMAS SLIDING SCALE. Radcliff-highway, Oct. 22, 1841. P.S. Should we have the dire misfortune of a Tory Government, I strongly suspect the,admiration expressed by the Tory press for Mr. Wakley will begin to wane. He has been a sturdy and consistent opposer of the Poor law Amendment Bill, and will be therefore directly op posed on this question to Sir Robert Peel, who has given it his decided support, as it saves the pockets of his friends the landed aristocracy.

BOULOGNE, JUNE 21. Yesterday was a great day flifthe pflents_at Boulogne, The Church for ()nee, since the...Re:j volution of .Julywas predominant. ou the Sunday preVions the llte-Dien was celebrated in the low town With great portip tind.Ceremony; but one day was not considered suffieiefit, dui) in order that the wineries, as some of the Paris papers justly describe the 'ceremonies, might be prolonged, afete was appointed to take place in this venerable city, on Sunday the 20th. The day was ushered in with the ringing of bells, as in the good olden times, when the priests and nobles were exempted from taxes, and the middle and lower classes had to support them, and a luxurious Court, out of their hard earn ings. The priests here verify the celebrated saying of Talleyraud, applied to the old worn out dynastr—" For the last fifty years, they have learned and forgotten nothing." Like our own grasping clergy, they seek power by delu sion ; and a second revolution must take place, before they are finally brought to their senses. The momeries were on a grand scale. Stations were erected in different places, ornamented with flowers and garlands. Most of the houses on the line of the procession were • hung with white linen. The Chief Priest marched, under a rich canopy, to an altar erected in the Place d'Armes, close to the house where Bonaparte resided dur ing the flotilla mania; he was accompanied by.a host of priests, and a considerable number of girls dressed in white, who had taken the sacra ment for the first time; and after various-chant ings, and abundance of frankincense had been burnt, he proceeded under this canopy with his train to the church of St. Jo'seph, to complete the service of the day. A considerable crowd was present, but they seemed to take no interest in the ceremony. With their usual politeness, the men took off their hats, but they looked upon it as a show at a fair, ,and the women and children viewed it without the slightest symptom of re spect. One little - Prefichman( in his mother's arms, was adorned with a crown oflaurel,like that which .surrounds the effigies of Napoleon and the Roman Emperors, but the contrast in other respects was most ludicrous. He was half naked, and what garments he had were of the most mi serable kind. The procession was accompanied by a brass band, as they say at the Surrey Zoo logical Gardens ; some of the instruments of an enormous size, and emitting a most woeful sound ; and that, mingled with the chaunting of the priests, the vain pomp of the canopy, borne by some half•dozen porters, and the assumed im portance of the doyen under it, formed altogether a most extraordinary exhibition. The Mayor, M. Adam, declined to have any thing to do with the affair. The clergy applied to him for his countenance and company on the occasion, but his answer was, " Perhaps I may be called upon to prevent disturbance, —I will not prohibit the procession, but I can have nothing - to do with . it." In other towns of France, however, this was not the case. The authorities in some took part in the procession, and marched after the petit Saint Jean et son mouton. At one place (Chartres) the sheep ran away with the St. J ohn, to the great scandal of the clergy, and the great amusement of the people. At another, the Mayor and the military authorities attended. At Dijon the ceremony was absolutely prohi bited, as contrary to the Charter; and at other places collisions took place between the Catholic and Protestant *clergy, the people in general taking part with neither. When the Catholics could not compel the people to bow to their mome ries, they consoled themselves by ,exclaiming, "better times are coming." All these things are done with the consent or connivance of the King, and the only paper that defends them (the Universe) is supported by the King's sister. There is a fatality about the race. La Dauphine et le clerge expelled Charles X. Is the Church, assisted by women, to be the means of changing the dynasty a third time ? The people of France have no feeling in common with the Church, and if the clergy attempt to recover power such ignoble arts, they will pull down the Church and the State together. A third revolu tion would be felt in othr places besides France. The warlike feeling in this part of the country .has greatly subsided, and, as a consequence,• strangers are returning to the own. At present there are a considerable number of English re sidents here, and more are expected for the bathing season. The Magnet steamer, which left London on Saturday, ad made the passage in ten hours, carried over more than a hundred and thirty passengers, and takes back this even ing not more than fifty. The reports circulated of the hostile disposition of the people of Bou logne, and the great preparations made for repelling an attack on the plaCe, have been enormously exaggerated. There are but four guns mounted on one side of the harbour, and three on the other ; and as regards the disposition of the peo ple towards the English there does not ap pear to be the slightest difference since last year. In the cabarets, in the neighbourhood, where the middle and lower classes , pass the Sunday afternoon, in great numbers, Englishmen are treated with every respect. I had an opportu nity of ascertaining the feelings of the inhabitants on Sunday, and certainly never met with more politeneSs in France. I made a point of visiting several public-houses, and in one, where more than thirty persons were assembled, I remained for an hour in conversation with two or three Frenchmen, who invited me - to drink with them, and who, with great difficulty, were prevailed on, in turn, to accept of even one sou glass of brandy; the sobriety and moderation of.the peo ple entitle them to the greatest praise. Most of these-persons were drinking beer, very few brandy, and all were sober, and well behaved. EVen if Sir Andrew Agnew had the regulation of public-houses, on a Sunday, under his control, be could not make the people of England or Scotland keep the Sabbath with such respect and decorum as the French people do of their own accord. A grand fete is to take place here on the lsth - of August, when the statue of Napoleon will be placed on the top of the column. Independent of the National Guards of Boulogne, and some other towns of the department, five thousand troops of the line are to be present. Marshal Soult and one of the King's sons are expected to honour the town with a visit on the occasion, and 'Teat will be the rejoicings. TORY versus WHIG AS. FINAN CIERS. -- . • Such is the heading of a bill very generally circu lated, the matter,being . taken from that most consistent, sincere, true. and patriotic journal, the Times. The tenor of this exquisite production is, to claim merit for the Tories for having diminished the national debt and taken off many taxes, and to throw censure on the Whigs by contrast. The reply to all this sophistry is easy. First—the taxes taken off nominally by Tory Go vernments, were, in effect, taken off by Whig opposi tions, who incessantly urged the reduction, and being backed by " the pressure from without," compelled the Tories most unwillingly to diminish establishments, and thus leave a surplus of revenue, admitting of these dimi nutions of taxation of which they now make a boast ! Let it never be forgotten that these lauded Tory Mi nisters stoutly maintained that the establishments and expenses of the country did not admit of any reduction whatever, though, after a memorable defeat, tlicy imme diately brought forward an estimate for ten thousand men less than the number which a week before they had pronounced to be the lowest possible number with which they could manage. Secondly—When they bad concluded their forced re ductions, they repeated their assertion that then no fur ther diminution of taxation could possibly be made. If this were true, the Whigs were not to be censured if they had never taken off a shilling of taxation. Now, the Tories hold a language which, if turned into plain English, runs thus : " Every Government can take off as many taxes as that which preceded it; our men took off six millions, therefore the Whigs ought to have taken off six mil lions too." On this beautiful theory we have only to change Ad ministrations seven or eight times, and we shall end in maintaining 100 ; 000 troops and a formidable navy (be sides paying the interest of the national debt, if such a thing then exists), out of no t axes " at all, at all," as Paddy . says. It is quite clear that the more taken off the less must remain to be subjected to a further reduction. By driving the Tories to abandon many taxes the Whigs left themselves scarcely any to repeal w hen they came into power. As befo re observed, had the yta been true, that they had taken off all that could be abandoned, of course their successors, with the best possible will, could not have repealed one. Finally--Whigs repeal taxes of the own ir will—Tories `yen they can't h e lp it. COMMON SENSE. --------- This week a coining establishment, and a com plete set of coining appa ratus, was discovered in Lone wells'-street, by the activity of the Paisley Police esta blishment. The moulds were for both the imitation of copper and silver coin, made of lead, or other soft ma terial, they being merely casts in plaister of Paris. The pursuer of this infamous calling has very properly - been handed over to the county fiscal for prosecution. Hi s mim e, we understand, is John Thomson.—Glasgow gaper.

TAFF VALE RAILWAY. We learn from the Gloucester Gazette that on Thuriday week, the first train with Lancashire ore reached the station at Merthyr ; the quan tity brought up was 70 tons. Had the same quantity come by canal it must have taken three days at least to bring it; it was brought up in two hours from Cardiff! The lower portion of the Dowlais branch, communicating with the old tram road, was opened the same day for the con veyance of the ore to Dowlais works. RAILWAYS INTO SCOTLAND FROM ENGLAND. The Carlisle Journal observes upon this sub ject, that" A decisive step is likely to be taken soon for the promotion of the lines recommended by the Government Commissioners between Lan caster and Glasgow. The Railway Companies so materially interested, between Birmingham and Lancaster, are beginning to move in this under taking, and a powerful party is organising itself in Scotland to co-operate with those interested in the northern counties of England. So that some important proceedings may be expected to be taken when the preliminary measures are ripe, and a favourable opportunity presents itself for action. NORTHERN AND EASTERN RAILWAY. We hear that this Company are actively engaged in surveying a new entrance into Lon don. It is said that they intend to come to a place called Middleton Gardens, Islington. But how will their agreement with the Eastern Counties for twenty years chime in with this? Should they take the above line, we 6pppose they will hardly need to compensate the part:.- again, having, we believe, already paid near 37,001;..1 for that purpose, to parties with whom they had eh' tered into agreements, and been obliged to break them on joining the Eastern Counties. RAILWAY TRAFFIC. The following calculation of the last weekly re turns of 30 railways, 1,0931 miles in length, given in our present number will, we believe, be of in terest :—Number of passengers on 19 railways,_ 247,023, consequently the total for the week must be above 400,000. The receipts for passen gers on 30 railways, 65,6461. 18s. !21d.; ditto for goods on 22 railways, 13,856/. 7s. Id. ; total, 79,5031. ss. 31d. This is an average of 721/. per mile per week. The traffic, therefore, is certainly at the rate of more than three mil lions a year, and carrying fifteen millions of passengers. THE CENSUS. - DUNDEE.—The population, by the census amounts in Coto to 66,232. When the census was taken in 1831, the population of Dundee stood at 45,355 ; so that in the ten years that have intervened it has increased 20,877. PERTH.—The returns of the enumerators for this city and suburbs have now been completed, and the total re sult is 19,221. At the last general census the total re turn was 20.016, showing a decrease of 705 in the ten years. There must be some mistake here ; and, as the census of 1831 was considerably under that made in the spring of the same year by order of the Magistrates, with the view of enforcing the claim of the city to a represen tative in Parliament, the probability is that the mistake is somewhere in the present returns. MONTROSE.—Due care has been exercised to obtain the most accurate account of the population here, and the result is— Old Parish of Montrose 10,094 St. John's 5,000 Craig (Rossie Island) 152 Total 15,246 The increase during the last ten years is very consider able. In 1831, the population of the town and parish numbered 12,055 ; this year it amounts to 15,094 ; being an increase of 3,039, and an addition of nearly 5,000 since 1821. Were the seamen belonging to the port in cluded, our population would now amount to about 16,000. As it is, Montrose still maintains its position of the second town in the county. FORFAR.—The total number in this parish is 9,605. The census of 1831 bore that the population was 7,949. so that there is an increase of 1,656. A few years ago, the number would have been much greater, bat, within that time, there has been a diminution to that extent, merely from emigration. , DUNKELD.—In the year 1831, we had nearly 1,500 inhabitants, while the present enumeration exhibits a deficiency of 400. To what cause or causes this fall ing off is to be attributed, it is not easy to say.—Perth j Courier. SINGULAR SUICIDE AT STAN.; FORD ABBOTT. - (Abridged from the Essex Herald.) A case of suicide occurred last week in the parish Stapleford Abbot, in this county, under circumstances of a very romantic character. A labourer named James Ramsey, about twenty years of age, having visited. Jane Hills, a respectable young woman, in the service of Mr. .James Dixon, for some years as a suitor, in consequence of her refusal to marry him, quitted his house and en listed on the 9th instant. He however became dejected and miserable, and five days afterwards was found life less suspended from a tree, in Mr. Dixon's garden, at four o'clock in th^ morning, close to the window of the bed-room in which the object of his attachment slept. An inquest was held on Tuesday, before C. C. Lewis, Esq., Coroner, when it appeared from evidence that he was considered to be in his right mind, but that he was habitually sad ; he had been connected with the girl Jane Hills for about two months, and was disappointed at her refusal or backwardness to marry him. A sheet of foolscap was found in the deceased's hat under the tree on which he hung, and upon it was written in pencil as follows :- 0 My Dearest as God gives me leaf to write these few words to yow what i do tell you it certainly is trew for what i done you caused me to do so what i tell you bear easy in your mind fur i love the so well i cant leave the behind So my dearest Jane ive come again as you may find me here no tongue can tell i kow it well i have been to sewere but when to the tomb its there fore to remain i hope you will not lay to heart to heavy a load of pain . for its when that i do go i hope its kind you will behave as i loved you and you loved me you will follow me to the grave so its now to all my friends and my relations far and near i hope unto these lines you will lend and eare so its now fore to conclude and finish all my rime i think within my own . mind iam jest in my prim so. now my dearest Jane i hope its kind you will behave • and its when that homewards i do go .. you will follow me to the grave Whoever finds this pray read it to my dearest beloved Jane hills God bless you my dearest Jane for my dearest beloved Jane hills pray read it to her for my sake The Jury returned a verdict "Temporary derange ment." WILL OF THE LATE BARBER BEAUMONT, ESQ.—MUNIFICENT BEQUEST.—The will and codicils of John Thomas Barber Beaumont, late of Regent-street, in the parish of St. James, Westminster, in the county of Middlesex, Esq., and late ono of the directors of the County Fire-office, has just been proved in the Prero gative Court of the Archbishop of Canterbury, by Alex ander Henderson, Esq., and John Augustus Beaumont, Esq., the son, the executors. The personal property of the deceased has been sworn under the value of 60,0001., which is principally bequeathed to his children. The deceased, in his life-time, commenced a philosophical institution, and by a codicil, dated May 28, 1840, he directs the munificent sum of 13,0001. to be invested in the hands of Robert'Fellowes, LL.D., J. Elliotson, M.D., F.R.S., George Charles Christian Hennell,.Esq., Alex ander Henderson, M. 1)., F.R.S., Henry Churchill, Esq., and Henry B. Kerr, which said legacy is bequeathed (free of duty), for the following purposes :—To esta blish a philosophical institution, in Beaumont-square, Mile-end, for the mental and moral improVement of the inhabitants of the said square and the surrounding neighbourhood, in their intervals of business, and freed from the baneful excitement of intoxicating liquors, as also the general cultivation of the general principles of practical theology, and the wisdom of God, leaving to the different churches and sects the cultivation and pur suit of their. peculi a r tenets, and also for the purpose of affording them intellectual improvement, and rationa l recreation and amusement.—Britannia. _ THE 1311EED07aAL-1110N.—FOr some years Sir Francis Mackenzie of Gairloch, Baronet, has been anxious to prevent that total destruction of the salmon race, which has been so threatening, and which, in many cases, has actually been accomplished ; but it is only this season that he has discovered a satisfactory remedy for this evil, and proved that the salmon can be pro pagated to any extent artificially, and protected from the nat enemies of their youth, as easily, and at a smaller ex pense, than is required for ra isin g a head of p h ea sants or other game. Sir Francis has at this moment a largeare school of young salmon fry, hatched during spring pool prepared for the purpose, and ready, at the proper age, to inhabit their native river, the Ewe, from which the parent fish were taken. They are now one and a half or two inches long, and decidedly- par—thus confirm half has so often been asserted, and on a small scale proved, by Mr. Shaw of Drurnlanrig, to whom belongs the credit.ot first suggesting a way of propagating our royal fish, though the possibility o . c . doing it, to any ex , tent that could really prove valuable, was alwas denied. Sir Francis Mackenzie has, however, by perseverance and zeal in the cause, overcome the difficulty, and, it is hoped, will soon make known to the public the detals of his interesting and valuable discovery.—lnverness Courier.

INTRODUCTORY DISCOURSES DELIVER ED AT MANCHESTER NEW COLLEGE. Simpkin and Marshall, London, 184:1. The Discourses comprised in this volume were delivered, it seems, in Manchester New Goliege, at the opening of the Session of 1840, and refer to some of the most important branches of Philo sophy, Science, and the Belles Lettres. That on History, is by Mr. Kenrick, and discusses a po pular and interesting theme with much judg ment and acumen. Referring to the often de bated question of how far it is fit that historians should be impartial or otherwise, the Lecturer justly remarks, " the only kind of impartiality to which, as it appears to me, the teacher of his tory can pretend, is to state all evidence fairly as far as is known to him, to refer to authors who have espoused opposite sides; to abstain from in vective and insinuation, and' to regulate his in structions by the spirit of philosophy, not of partizanship." If Hume had written English history in this spirit, he would have been a far --renter authority than he is at present; and if Z ile _ome candid spirit had pervaded Gibbon's 71oured, one-sided episode of the rise highly.‘, of the early Christian Reformers, his d anrogress " Decline and Fall of Rome" p admirable would have placed him at the head of all the ' historians of the mode world. The best, be .... ' cause the most thoughtfut, discourse in the vo lume is the one on "Mental and Moral Philo sophy," by Mr. James Martineau, which exhi bits in every page great closeness and subtlety ' of reasoning. CARLI6T REFUGEES: PROCLAMATION OF CABRERA. To the sub-officers and the officers of the army Arragon, of Valentia„ Murcia, and Catalonia.—Never was any opportunity of showing their religious and political constancy and fidelity to their King more fa vourable to Spaniards devoted to litn than under actual circumstances, when we are about .)-Ring deprived of every resource. By your sufferings and ;Tour privations during a protracted and cruel war, you ga,.e numerous proofs of your devotedness. The per i o d is w oe when the Spanish character must show itself more thin ever that character so much lauded by both our political ... 1 . 114 foreign enemies. It is this day that your General cks mands of you to show religious virtue, constancy, fidelity:, and devotedness to a cause in which your blood was shed' on the Soil of your country. It is now for us to exact the admiration of the foreigner and of our own enemy — our country ! And I this day hope to be a witness to the intrepidity of those whom I had the honour to lead ou to victory, to reap imperishable laurels in the history of human events. The recent unjust sequestration of an inimical Government we must support with magnani mity, with calmness, and with the truly Spanish cha racter which has ever been so honourable. Constancy, companions in arms ! Fidelity, perseverance, firmness are more necessary to-day than before. It is the last stroke to crush us, but God will protect us, and save us from the danger. We have friends who flee no opportu nity of endeavouring to assure the subsistence of the brave and valiant defenders of their religion and of their King. Let us confide in them ; let us implore their pro— tection ; and never forget it never failed those who solicited it from the heart. Let us prove to the whole world that the Spanish have ever been, and will ever be; models of valour, of constancy, and of loyalty. Her' Majesty, it is said, is endeavouring to induce the foreign Pjwers to admit us in their States. Your General .s as wretched as you, his companions in arms, but he does not despair. My prayers are the sunne as yours. But I bury them in my heart until thatday when at your head, my sword may give a last testimony of devotedness and fidelity to the just cause of God and of legitimacy. 6 cannot console you in anything, my fate is yours, but • whithersoever it lead us, let us retain these principles, and let the Spanish name maintain the place it bas gained. Reckon ever on him who is honoured by calling IninFelf your companion in glory and fatigue. (Signed) t` COMPTE DE M OR ELLA. , " Ilyeres, May 12, 1841." CASE OF JAMES MAXWELL TILE PILOT. It is hoped that no apology will be required for biopg— iog before the public the following case of ext eni- , . • distress, connected as it. is. with circumstance: Wiliell must be interesting to every generous and hunianc in dividual under whose notice this may come : In the 171st number of Chambers' Edinburgh Journal there is a _narrative detailing an instance of one of the most - miraculous preservations of human life, from de struction on board ship, that has almost ever oceurYed. It is under the title of " A Hero in Huinblr Life," and exhibits the self-denial and bra very of one James Maxwell, (under the fictitious name of Cochrane,) a pilot, who, in the ? , ear 1827, was the individual means of saving the lives, to the Um ber of betwixt seventy and eighty, of the passengers and - crew of the Clydesdale steam-packet. This vessel was. destroyed by fire on her voyage betwixt Glasgow and Belfast, and the preservation of those on board of her by the pilot, is thus abridged from the article in Cham bers' Journal alluded to :—" On its being ascertained that the only way to save those on board was to run the vessel ashore, the pilot instantly took the helm and fixed himself to the spot. The fire, which the exertions of all the men could not keep under,•soon raged with ungoveniable fury, and keeping the engine in violent action, the vessel. one of the fleetest that Kid ever been built, flew through the 1 water with incredible speed. All the passengers were ga thered to the bow, the rapid flight of the vessel keeping that' part clear of the flames, whileit carried the. fire, flames, and smoke, backward to the quarter deck, where the pilot stood like a martyr at the stake. Everything possible was done by the master and crew to keep. the place on which ha stood deluged with water, but this became every moment more difficult and hopeless, for, in spite of all that could be done, the flames seized the cabin under him, and his feet were literally roasted on the deck. Still he never flinched, for, had he done so, all might have perished. At intervals, the motion of the wind threw aside the intervening mass of flame and smoke for a moment, and then might be heard exclamations of hope and gratitude, as the multitude on the bow got a glimpse of the brave man,'standing calm and fixed on his dreadful watch. - By this time the vessel was within a stone-cast of the Galloway coast, girded, as his, with perpendicular masses of rock, but every corner of which the pilot was acquainted with, and this enabled him. to run her into an open ,snace, and alongside L ledge of rock, upon which every person got safe on I t v o h b i i em true.tlley • o a' Poore, d t h:i i r a lLv lives." shore, - all unscathed, crept the self-devoted one, to The foregoing particulars have been all ascertained and his constitution so shattered by, hi:vaesxes°rtioi however, I n , injured, u r a ed n d , sufferings on that awful occasion that he his p ab il l o e t :J o y , do one a never been the same man since.

Since the month of XOvember, last year, there has been scarcely any interruption to the working of the plough, except what arose from frost ; and the consequence has been that the land has been better prepared, and the seed of every description co mmitted to the earth under more faourable circumstances than we ever remember. Until about fourteen days ago nothing had suffered , e ven on light lands, the complete pulverization of the soil having enabled it to resist the drought with more effect than could have been anticipated. Since then, lionever, the pasture and the hay crop have both suffered grievously, not more front the drought than irons the chilling and piercing north-east winds which have prevailed ; and in some districts there has been a scarcity of water, even for ordinary domestic purposes. But since Monday the sky has been cloudy, with the appearance of rain, and yesterday morning it. began to fall in mild and gentle showers, which prevailed during the greater part of the day, aniwith every appearance of continuance. Alreaal:y the parched and baked earth has 4gun to feel its influ ence, and vegetation looks fresUr. With a farther supply of rain and warm weather, the prospect of a plen tiful harvest is as gratifying as could b it wis h e d L er. _ Caledonian Mercury - ,~ { 41 ' yl < 4 l dl 004P1' ,tl,ol C ' ~~ ~~'e ~ a ~~~1 ~~~~t'' f f~~;; a
