Resolved unanimously, the That tk. latest accounts from New South Wales represent demand for labour in that colony to be more pressing and izleatthan at any former period ; wages had risen enormously, 44 ", w re exectd tbe stll higher ; the flock owners were ibso asle to obtain s she o pherds i at all approximating to the number 'wtely necessary for their proper care; great apprehen w„is were entertained that much of the forthcoming harvest, f ,'"elt promised to be very abundant, would perish in the fields t Z tt w a allt of a sufficient supply of labour to reap and store it ; all great interests of the colony were very seriously a 'eatleerrd from the alarming deficiency of labour. A Com leitatee-of the Legislative Council,of which the Bishop of A ustra iazt7aB Chairman, in their Report to the Council in :September id u st a_ te, that " Every department of industry is cramped; et ,, ,t 0 undertaking, public or private, can be prosecuted ex at an immease expense, owing to the exorbitant rate of , e a r g y !s, and the inconceivable difficulty in procuring workmen, b ,2°1 , 1 or mechanics, upon any terms whatever; there is no r, s ' of the colony in which it may riot be truly said that there 14' 1 , actual dearth of hands to carry on the ordinary business. , 10 7 instance of sheep farming, the distress arising from want D4t u Pherds is almost incredibla. Thus a very fatal check is tt, a 4 2" the advancing prosperity of the Colony. - moved by THOMAS 10ELEY, Esq., of New South Wales, seconded b ALEXANDER SMITH, Esq., of Liverpool, and ertillesolvei unanimously, the opinion of this meetine it is in the highest de mtportant that the supply of labour from these kingdoms pr a : 1 ‘ • South Wales should be encouraeed and promoted by all ae - '"ca.ble means and that every possible facility and encourage tan consistent ' with the existing law of the land, should be oric t ued to all persons engaged in supplying it. In a Report V k l' committee of the Legislati ve Cou n cil of New South ear 4 , , they state "that to permit immigration tobe suspended of ss e l e ked in its extent, would be to seal the death-warrant s a i"ftial prosperity, and to expose to certain ruin the nu ,flounshing and extending interests which have been t1a.,0 to the Colony,land it may also be truly affirmed that any eal le 4u the supply of labour to New. South I Wales is also cal ,taa by reflection, to be highly injurious to the best nte 1, It the Mother Country." .1:„, Moved. by EDWARD DIVETT , Esq.. M.P. , seconded lacH KIST, Esq., of Glasgow, and 711 a t his enanimously , Fraia h - 14 is Meeting considers the Bounty system of Emi oy H i which was originated and established in the Colony, the which authorities, under the administration of Sir i s. i - i ard Bourke, to have been a most valuable means of ob vsstbg the necessary supply of Labour, and to have conferred 1 1, , s lienefit on the Colony. It is estimated that up w a rds of tt ie u persons emigrated to Nev South Wales last year under ( I ,2Peration of the Bounty system, and in the present year, Rill there is reason to believe that a vastly increased supply a fa oe furnished uncles this invaluable system, if left, as here to the energy of those engaged in sendin g it out, 4 'caekled b y the imposition of unnecessary and obs t ructive t: e aditions " In their estimate of the great value of the O e ' n ' l tY system, this Meeting has the entire concurrence of Sir fa; a r gc Gipps, who, in a despatch to the Secretary of State l,'" , Colonies, presented to, and printed by order of Parlia o"t' gays "the Bounty system, however, has been found so to ti:llperior to that of Government Emigration, both as description of persons supplied by it , and the cost sh et rir passage, that it appears to me very doubtful tiss " e r any other should be persevered in ;" and in another a e l e lteh the Governor, speaking of the Report which had then aa n ' l 7 been presented by the Committee on Emigration in r'ony to the Legislative Council, thus expresses himself : 01;0' no way able to dispute the correctness of the con tottehs of the Committee, in respect to the superiority of the ag,,, 4 tY system over that which is carried on by the immediate Per he 0 f Government. The Bounty system is found to be 41. ta t 'ad, or about 21 per cent. cheaper t . han the Government 4. 111 reckoning men, women, and children . all alike, and thi s `, no difference for the quality of the emigrants . ; but if falle r be taken into consideration, and especially the tea, ler proportion of children introduced by the Bounty sys de . a t he' advantage of that system must be estimated consi lets',l7 higher, and I am inclined to think with the Commit tau' t hat 200 Government emigrants cost as much as 300 di mi lit Y ones of equal value to the Colony." This, it should be te r ;'etla borne in mind, is the voluntary testimony of the Go a, of the Colony, in his official communications to the Tary of State. As respects that most important consi atta,_ „ the comparative state of health on board Govern lae' and Bounty ins,shi conveying passengers to New South Les, it was stated vidence before the Committee of the 14 'llsa thtive voyage was as follows, viz. : Government Bounty 0,.

ADMIRALTY, SOMERSET-PLACE, APRIL 17, 1841. r UE COMMISSIONERS for EXE CUTING the OFFICE of LORD HIGH AD MIRAL of the UNITED KINGDOM of GREAT BRITAIN and IRELAND, do hereby give Notice, that on FRIDAY, the 7th May next, at Ten o'clock in the Forenoon, 'he Captain Superintendent will PUT UP TO SALE in Her Majesty's Dock Yard at SHEERNESS, several Lots of OLD STORES; Consisting of Rope (Cable -laid and Hawser-laid), New Canvas Cuttings, Canvas Rags, Shakings, Yarns, &c. &c. &c., all lying in the said Yard.

A strict surveillance had been enjoined, because the design of carrying me off bad been discovered ; but my friends had sworn to risk their lives to rescue me from the hands of the murder ers, who had determined on my death. Consequently, as it was impossible to get me out of the tower, they resolved to conceal me in it, to make my persecutors believe that I had escaped. The idea was a bold one ; nevertheless, it was the only means of facilitating the escape which they had planned. Nothing was more practicable to make me disappear for the moment. No one escorted those who carried down to the first floor the things of which I had made use. My friends were, therefore, convinced that they would be able ti take me up higber, without - any risk of being discovered. In fact, though my sister was confined in the third story, she had at that time neither senti nel nor municipal officer for her guard. This expedient afforded almost certain prospects of suc cess. Accordingly, ono day my protectors gavb me a dose of opium, which I took for medicine, and I was soon half asleep. In this state I saw • a child, which they substituted for me, in my bed, and I was laid in the basket in which this child had been concealed under my bed. I perceived, as if in a dream, that the child was only a wooden figure, the face of which was made to re semble mine. This substitution was effected at the mo ment whoa the guard was changed ; the one who suc ceeded was contented with just looking at the child to certify my presence, and it was enough for him to have seen a sleeping figure whose face was like mine : my habitual silence centnbuted farther to strengthen the error of my new Argus. In the meantime I had lost all consciousness and when my senses returned, I found myself shut up in a large room, which was quite strange to me ; it was the fourth story of the tower. Before ecncaffng me there, one of my friends, whom I shall name in the course of this history, had informed me in what manner I should he saved, on condition that I should bear all imaginable sufferings without com plaining ; adding, that a single imprudent step would bring destruction on me and my benefactors ; and he insisted, above all, that when I was concealed, I should ask for nothing. and should continue to act the part of a really deaf and dumb child. I ate, I slept, and waited for my friends with patience. I saw my first de liverer from time to time at night, when be brought me what was necessary for me. The figure was discovered the same night ; but the Government thought fit to con ceal my escape, which they believed to have been com plc ted. My friends, the better ,to deceive the sangui nary tyrants, had sent off a child under my name, in the directior, I believe, of Strasburg, and even gave information to Government that it was I who had been sent there. The Government, its order entirely to con ceal "the truth, put in the plae of the figure a child of my age, who was really deaf and dumb, and redoubled the ordinary guard, to creste a belief that I wag still there. This increase of precau tion prevented my friends from completing the exe cution of their plan in the manner they had intended. I remained, therefore, in this vile h&c, as if. buried alive. At this time I was nine years and a half old. Frevenfly I bad to wait several days the arrival of the beneficent beings who provided me with food. 'rho Go vernment, notwithstanding the artifice used by them of substituting the deaf and dumb child in the place of the wooden figure, gave orders not to admit any of those who knew the Dauphin, to prevent all possibility of the secret being betrayed. I know not how it hap pened, that in spite of these precautions it was whis pered about that the real Dauphin was no longer In the tower. Tue agitators were alarmed, and it wan decided that the deaf and dumb child should die. De leterious ingredients were mixed with his food, which made him ill ; and in order to avert the suspicion of, poison, M. Dessault was called in, not to cure him, but to counterfeit humanity. M. Dessault ordered an antidote to he prepared by his friend the apothecary Choppart, telling him, at the same time, that this child was not the son of Louis XVI. M. Dessault's disclosure was repeated ; the murderers of my . family, seeing that the life of the dumb boy was prolonged in spite of their attempts to poison him, substituted for him a ricketty child from one of the hospitals at Paris ; and, in order to secure themselves against any further betrayal of the secret, they poisoned Dessault and Choppert. June S. 1795, and after the post nzortent examination, the body was deposited in a coffin, preparatory to interment. This coffin was placed in the room for merly inhabited by my father. While this was doing a strong dose of opium had been given to me. I was placed in the coffin, when the dead child was with drawn, and all was completed just at the moment when the coffin was sent for to be conveyed to the grave. No sooner was the dead child concealed in the fourth story, the piece where I had been, than my friends, informed of what was passing, placed the coffin, with me in it, in a carriage. On the way to the burial-ground, I was put into a box, at the bottom of the carriage, and the coffin was filled with rubbish, to give it sufficient weight, and as soon as it was deposited in the grave, my friends re-entered Paris with me. There I was entrusted to the hands of other friends. When I awoke, I found myself in a bed, in a very neat apart ment, alone with my nurse. Most fortunately this business was executed with deseatch, for scarcely was I in a place of safety, when the whole secret was dis covered. Already it began to be publicly rumoured that it was not I who had been buriel. These reports alarmed the Government, which gave orders to its agents to disinter the coffin, to nail it down close, and to bury it elsewhere, that in case of search it might not be found. My friends in the meantime disguised and sent me in a carriage to Paris, and with a view of put ting my enemies on a wrang scent, they sent off a child, a natty° of Versailles, with his parents, intending him to pass for me." Ile was afterwards discovered and taken back to prison, from whence he a second rime escaped through the means of Madame Beauharnois, by whom ho was consigned to the care of a person named Montmorin, who conducted him to Venice ; and afterwards was se cretly under the protection of the Pope, Pius V. From Italy, when the revolutionary ar my penetrated into that country, be attempted an escape to Engl but was detected and taken back to France and put in prison. He remained in prison until the year 1803, when Montmorin, who had followed his steps, con trived and effecaed his escape. He attributes the suc cess of this attempt to the assistance of Josephine, who favoured the attempt and secured the connivance of Fouche, Minister of Police. He arrived next, undis covered, at Strasburg'', where ho was identified and placed in confinement in the fortress of that town. He was nineteen years of age when this event took place. Here he despaired of ever regaining his liberty, when he was most unexpectedly and courageously delivered from his dungeon by some unknown and adventurous adherents. The Prince thus describes his condition after this escape : " 'l l he instant I breathed the heat air, I fainted away. We arrived the same night at a new place of refuge, where I was concealed in an isolated apartment, and received from my friends the tenderest attention. Here again I felt el wmingly ill, and scarcely was I Con valescent when my asylum wasdiscovered by my perse cutors. I immediately fled, accompalwed only by the faithful Montmorin. Harrassed and worn out by so mar y sufferings, we arrived at Frankfort on the Maine, in Germany, where we rested for sonic days, and ex changed our clothes at a Jew's. We were then in the spring of 1809. While in this town I learned from my friend Montmorin that I had been confined about four years in the dungeon which I have described. I was four and-twenty years old. In reckoning the whole period of my coefitminent, from my imprisonment with my family in the tower of the Temple, I had to this time endured seventeen years of More or less rgorous capt;vity ; for even when in the care of my friends I was little more than a _captive. Montmorin informed me that I owed my enlargement to Madame Josephine. adding at the same time, that her conduct was the result of mere selfish policy,' who finding at length Vint it was the intention of Bonaparte to separate Irons her alts InV death, and to marry again, revealed to my friends the place of my e onfinemeat. " As soon as we received tidings from my friends Fiance e aceompanisd by a letter of credit, w hastily quitted Frankfort :tad travelled post on the road to 11j hernia. Front thence we progressed through Germany, Dresden, and at length, by making a great circuit, reached a village in Prussia. We had just fallen into a deep sleep at an inn where we lodged on the evening of our arrival, when we were awakeeed, and arre:teti as spies, -Hs We were told, and conducted before the eommandent of a small body of troop recent i 1 quartered in the neighbour- G RAVESEND to BLACKWALL, in Con nexion with the RAILWAY.

PERRY and CO. having effected considerable improvement in their FILTER INKSTAND, have now the pleasure to announce that a Second Patent has been granted to them for such improvement, which they have united with their First Patent, under the title of " DOUBLE PA TENT PERRYAN FILTER INKSTAND." The eulogy bestowed on the Patent Filter Inkstand by the public .lournals, and the preference obtained for them over the common Ink stands was almost unprecedented. The present novel and sci entific method of supplying Clear Ink to the Dipping Cup, and returning it into the reservoir, is exceedingly simple, the action being now performed by merely lifting up the lid to obtain a supply, and shutting it down to withdraw it ; in this state it cannot outflow, whatever may be the change of temperature, and it is protected from dust or other injury in any place or climate.

I was vroddtreW :,elf when I was fired on, my horse fell dead, my left foot, still in the stirrup, was under him, in spite of all my efforts, I was not able .to - extricate myself. A foot soldier drew near and gave me a heavy blow on the head with the butt.end of his musket. I felt as if struck by a thun der-bolt, and was so giddy, that everything seemed to be whirling round me. I know not how long I remained in this state ; when I recovered my senses I found myself in an hospital. When nearly recovered, I found myself in the forest of Wesel, on the frontier of France. I, with other prisoners there confined, was illegally condemned, by the order of Napoleon, to the galleys at Toulon, with out knowing why. We were transferred to the interior of France, from one prison to another, like common male factors. I had not a penny wherewith to supply m y wants. We were treated with much harshness on our way by the French who escorted us. I became ill, and was left by the escort in a village where I had fail;ln' senseless. At length I was conveyed by a cart to the neighbouring town. There I met with a convalescent soldier 'of the name of Friedrichs, who recognised me, and we mutually concerted a scheme to escape, which we succeeded in doing, though not without encountering. the most painful sufferings and privations. It is not my intention to relate here the long series of sufferings which I was destined to endure. Passing, then, rapidly over such circumstance 3 as would only serve as food for eu riosity, I shall at once transport myself into Germany, in which country we arrived after a thousand vicissitudes. There I had the grievous misfortune to lose my friend ,Friedrichs, who, having gone out for foraiing for us as usual, was apprehended by the chevaliers de la corde. I continued my pilgrimage alone, and soon arrived in Saxony. As Friedrichs had persuaded me to enter the Prussian service, I directed my steps towards the town of Berlin, travelling by night, and sleeping in the daytime under the canopy of heaven. I-asked the way of all those whom I met ; but whether they did not understand my questions, or whether they imaginca, that I asked ~in joke, they directed me -at random, so that I ended by going direcCy opposite to my destina tion. In the course of this wandering I found myself one day in a large forest, to which I could st e no end. I was tormented by thirst, And sought some fruit t.`er refresh me, but in seeking for' it lost my way. .In the midst of this embarrassment, I beard a poitd on's horn, and immediately afterwards I perceived a post chaise at some distance from me. Having regained the high road, I seated myself, while waiting for the carriage, on . a stone which bore the inscription, Doctor Martin Luther.' It drew near, and a young man who was in the chaise cried,' Stop, beau frere,' en expression of the country, and immediately ques tioned me, either from motives of curiosity, or through the intereSs with which my pitiable condition inspired him. Touched, no doubt, by my answers, he .offered me a place beside him, saying he would take me as far as Wittenberg. - I accepted the 'offer without hesita tion, and got into the carriage. On the road be in quired what was in my wallet, and on being told that it, belonged to my comrade, he cut it open with his pen keife, when he found six hundred francs of gold, wrap ped up in several pieces of rags. On reaching Witten berg we alighted' at the Grappe d'Or, where our first care was to change my clothes. He shaved me him self, and dressed my hair, and seen I was no longer to be recognised. The next day he borrgwcd a carriage, in which I was conveyed to Treinpretzee, the first town on the frontier of Prussia. There he again took me in a post-chaise as far as Potsdam whence he had me conveyed in another private carriage to Berlin. " After some repose, 1 addressed myself to the com mandant of the regiment of which Frielricbs had spoken to InP, and was informed that his Majesty did not admit foreigners. Mortified at this refuse!, and particular circumstances having prevented my approachin g the King, to apply to him, as I had been advised to do, I • was obliged to adopt another resolution, as my stock of money was fast diminishing, This was towards the end of the year 1810. Accordingly, to earn my bread,_ I set up as a watchmaker, Schutz 4 . 1 Strasse, No.. 52, in an apartment which I hired. • It was not long, however, before the magistrates, began • to raise diffi culties on account of my not having authority to fol low my trade, and 1 was accordingly required to de posit in that functionary's office my passports, register of birth, certificate of „good conduct,. &c..--documents which, it is hardly nceessary to say, I did not posseSs. In this dilemma I confided my secret to Madame Sonnen feld. the widoes of a watchmaker; who suggested the idea of my applying to M. Lecoque, president of the general police of the kingdom of Prussia. I adopted. this plan, and informed him in writing of my birth. M.lse„- coque came to see me, and was satisfied of my identity es he recognised my mother's writing, us well as the seal end signature of my father. He then left me to take the orders of the King respecting me. The fol lowing day he begged MC to entrust my papers to biro, that he might submit them to his Majesty. I refused at first, and insisted upon being myself presented to the King. This, however, could not he grarea, until Prince Hartteuberg, the President of the Ministry,"tad rend my papers. Alter taking the precaution to cut. my father's seal zig-zag, I delivered to M. Lecoque all the letters thet I had preserved, but he took only that waitten by my mother, and left m. e, promising that I should re ceive no further annoyance from the Magistrates of Berlin. Notwithstanding this, however, I was again sumk mooed, and after some delay, I was informed by M. Le coque that it was dangerous for me to stop any longer there, and having given me a rohleau of gold, he vised me to establish myself under an assumed name. To facilitate this plan he sent me a patent under tho name of Charles William Naundoriff. I remained' peace from this time until the year 1812, at which pc-. riod I changed my residence for Spandau. M. Lecoque intimated to me that the King of Prussia was net at liberty to act as he could wish, and that it was necessary 1 should assume a feigned name to shel ter myself from the power of Napoleon. My pass-. ports, with which 1 had been furnished by M. Le coque, having been examined by the burgomaster, 1.. obtained the freedom of the town, and time act was for.. welly verified before the council of the city. This took place in 1812, a few months bt.fore the retreat of the French atimY."

Love is the end anti sum of life, creating image after image of ideal perfection. But in the present state of society, pure and virtuous enjoyment is often postponed and ob. structed, till the excess of youthful impetuosity impels to a course of wild anti injurious indulgence, and the mind becomes painfully harassed by alternations of fears, disgust, and passion. In this state relief is perhaps sought from the inexperienced, perhaps from the ignorant ; in either case at the expense of heaLli, that being only palliated which should have been eflectually cured. Here we propose to step in and rescue the victim of unwise indulgence from the pangs of remorse, disappointed hope, and disease; and we pledge ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poison. end to restore to it: wonted energy every 'relaxation of the generative economy, whether from this or other causes, whereby the dignity of manhood shall have become Impaired; equally contemning unfeeling gimpy. ricism, which with reckless ignorance destroys where is should re store; and, on the other hand, that unworthy " pritteple" whose proud selfishness increases the embarrassment °lithe afflicted, All classes of society, the Anglo-Indian particul trly, mod those whose constitutions are enfeebled by the effects of a tropical climate, as well as such as are about to enter intmatritnonial lite, are included in the limits of this address, and to all confidently offer the result of many years' successful practice.

The Policies are Indefeasible and Indisputable, unless they have been obtained by fraudulent misrepresentations. Any important mistake, or even an unintentional omission, in communicating information, in answer to the numerous questions put by other Companies, has the effect of annulling the policy, and forfeiting tha premiums—thus rendering it in general a matter of uncertainty (until the claim comes to be made) whether the policy be of any value. The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Assurance Company, determined to obviate whas they consider injustice to the assured, satisfy themselves upon the various questions proposed by them before they enter into the contract of assurance, and frame their po licies in such terms as to preclude all future questions as to their validity, and thus render them indefeasible and indisput able documents of future debt against the Company. The po licies of this Company may, therefore, be regarded as certain available future funds, and as unimpeachable and negotiable documents for pecuniary transactions. One-half of the Premiums may remain Unpaid for Seven Years, affording a greater facility for Loan Transactions and Family Provisions than any other plan which has been sug gested—allowing a Policy to be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice—and entitling the Assured at a future period, when loss of health may prevent him from obtaining a New A•snranee, to continue a Policy for double the amount of the sum for which he has paid Premiums. Parties may lie assured either upon the participating or non participating plan ; the former are entitled to the whole of the profits upon that branch of the business, and the latter are as sured for the lowest premiums compatible with perfect security.

They are narrated exactly as they occurred, for the case is one of those in which the truth is more powerful than fiction. No strong language, which it is in our power to use, could add to the disgust which all good men must fee l, whatever their religious opinions, at the conduct of the Rev. Dudley Ryder, which con duct was countenanced by the Archbishop of York, and who therefore shares the disgrace of the unchristian and intolerant act. We cannot certainly but lament that the hitherto venerated name of Wilbeforce should now be associated, as it unfortunately is, with religious ty ranny and persecution—that the memory of the man, whose name will ever be associated with the emancipa tion of the slave, is sullied by his degenerate sons, who labour to impose on the mind of their fellow-man the shackles of a narrow and exclusive religious system. Samuel Wilberforce exerted the energies of a noble heart in freeing his fellow-men from bodily thraldom ; his sons disgrace his name and damage his reputation by striving with a bigot zeal to enslave the minds of their countrymen—by attempting to impose on them, through the power conferred by the British Inquisition—the Ecclesiastical Courts—the religious opinions and prac tices of a sect only, not morally or legally binding on those who disbelieve them. We spoke last week of the inconsistency—to use the mildest word—of a por tion of the Winchester Dissenters, who support, at the elections for this city, the avowed friend and virtual nominee of the ,Duke of Buckingham, whose indirect persecution of their brethren in the villages of Avington and Eaton we have before stated. It is always with the deepest feelings of shame at the baseness of human nature that we witness the support of Tory candidates by Dissenters or Catholics. It is such a combination of, folly and ingratitude that it appears almost inconceivable any temporary pecuniary benefit can induce it—nothing can warrant it. When we recollect that for many a long year the Catholic and Dissenter were trampled under the iron hoof of a Tory despotism, and that it is alone owing to the exertions of the Whigs and Liberals, continued through a long course of time, in spite of defeats and opposing obstacles, tlsatathey were at last raised in the social scale to an equality with their fellovv•countrymen. When we reflect that to a Liberal Government they owe the possession of their political and religious rights—every thing which distinguishes the free man from the slave—we cannot but feel disgust at a debasing hamilation, which licks the hand that smote it, by supporting the party who do not now rule them with a rod of iron only because it has not the power—the will is apparent on too many occasions. We trust the conduct of the Rev. Dudley Ryder, of the Rev. R. J. Wilberforce. and 'the con duct of the Duke of Buckingham, implicated by that of those who dispense his bounty to the poor of Aving ton and Easton, will not be forgotten by the Dissenters of Winchester at the next election. They now know the opinion entertained of them by their Tory perse cutors, and what they have to hope from their liberality if their power was uncontrolled. " Who is not for us is against us," appears to be the motto of the Ryder, W.lberforce, and Buckingham school of Toryism, and we recommend the Dissenters of Winchester to en grave the same sentence on their banner at the next election. Surely in this ease they are justified in adopting the maxim " Fas est et ab hoste doceri."— Hanzps4ire Independent. THE ATTACHMENT OF BIRDS TO MAN.—A curate in the county of Kildare, in Ireland, some time ago, related the following anecdote of his neighbour, a worthy, good sort of a man, who carried on the ecotone printing business, end who, aLhough once in very pros perous eircern , tances, Lecame after, in consequence of a change in the times, very poor In his mill-yard was a gander, which had been there forty years; he was the finest and the largest bird of his kind I ever saw," said the cu rate, •' his watchfu'ncss was excessive ; no dog could equal him in vigilance, or be more fierce in attacking strangers and beggars ; he followed his old master a her ever he went, and, at his command, would fly at any man or beast, and, with his bill, wings, and feet, he could hurt se verely. Whencver my neighbour paid me a visit, the gander always accompanied him, and I was liberal of oats, having one or two geese in my yard ; he would, besides, came up and give me a gratuitous call before his master rose in the morn ing, but nr ither the oats nor theblandishments of the feathe ed fair ones could keep him long away, and be soon solemnly stalked back to his proper station at the mill. Year after year I perfected my friendship with " Toby," the gander, and certainly had a share in his esteem, when, one winter, after heir g confined to the house fey a severe cold, I in quired in passing through the mill-yard for my friend, whom I could nowhere see. " Oh, sir," says a man in the mill, who had been about the place as long as Toby him self, " Tobs's gone." " Gone where?" " Oh, he's dead." " How dercl?" " Why, sir, we ate Lim for our Christ mas dinner." " Eat him -1" I think I have been seldom in my life more astonished and shocked ; positively I would have given a fat cow to be eaten, could I have saved poor Toby ; but so it was. Ups❑ inquiry, I found that the peer man hid not the means to buy his Christmas dinner, that he was too proud to go into debt, and, determined as lie was to give his people a meat dinner, poor Toby fell a sacri fice to proud poverty."—ladicator. THE LIFE OF PETRAItCH, BY THOMAS CAMPBELL, ESQ.—An eminent writer has observed, and we entirely agree with Lim, that in order to attain a just application, not merely of the merits, but also of the personal character of a poet, it is rcqui'ite to possess the mind and feelings of a poe'. In this respect, " The Life of Petrarcb," from the pen of Camebell, the first of our living poets, will come before the public with peculiar advantages. The fruit of mature reflection—for it has oc cupied the author some sears—this work, it is under, tood, discusses the history and character of its celebrated subject, poetical, literary, and moral, without partiality or preju dice, and in a tone of liberality that pervades Ertl the works of his no less celebrated biographer. NEW TYPE-FOUNDING MACH INF.—A let ter front Boston (United States) gives the following notice of anew machine for casting types A mashiee has been invented and built by Mr. l'e'er Sturtevant and Mr. Edward Starr, the head mechanic.; of the Boston Type and Stereotype Foundry, which is likely to be cf a very important use in tie art of type making. It is a machine for casting the type, by merely turning the crank, thereby avoiding the laborious and dilatory process of casting by hand. The operation of this machine may be performed by a boy, or a person entirely unskille !, with double the rapidity of tie best caster ; and so much greater is the force by which the meted is injected into the moulds than that exerted is ea=ting in the usual 1111'7-• thod, that there is rarely, if ever, an imperfect face in casting the most slender and difficult letter. There is, besides, less %sante of metal than in the ordinary mode of casting. The machine is not complex, and is little likely, as far as we can judge from its construction, to get out of order. We forbear giving a more particular description, because the ingenious inventors have net yet secured the benefit of their improvement by a patent. This we pre sume they will do without delay. —lnvontor's Advocate. SOLI ALISAI. APUBLIC DISCUSSION between Mr. LLOYD JONES, Soc'al Missionary, and Mr. J.

The Mansion con:;ains, on the ground-floor, a vestibule, entrance bah.. .lining and drawing-rooms (the later in fine old oak wainscot), servants' hall, kitchen, brewhouse, dairy, and other convenient offices, and particularly good arched wine and beer cellars underneath.

The House is surrounded by a lawn, and flower garden tastefully laid out, at the back of which is a very productive kitchen garden, surrounded by a wall planted with very choice fruit trees, near to which is an extremely productive orchard. In front of the house are thirteen acres of very rich meadow land, finely timbered, and divided by iron fences, with a"un dance of water and shade for cattle. Connected with this land are a farm-yard and two good tenements for out-door servants, and three other cottages and gardens. There is a family pew in the church attached to this property.

SIGHT AND HEARING. 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY, (Opposite the York Hotel), and 76, KING WILLIAM-STREET, BANK OF ENGLAND. THE INVISIBLE OPERATIVE VOICE CONDUCTOR, effected by the Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMON S, OPTICIANS and AURISTSto the ROYAL F I,IIILY, 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY, by which thousands of deaf persons have been greatly bene fited, is the size of a seven-shilling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defective VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly invented SPECTACLE LENSES; immediately they are placed before weak and imperfect eye-sight, either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with great distinctness ; by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved. The Messrs. S. and B. SOLOMONS disclaim all con nexion with persons of the same name, and the sale of am ber spectacles ; the pernicious use of amber spectacles being now well known to the public, and the vendor being aware of it. he has therefore altered their name, by leaving out the word " Amber," and calling them " Patent Spectacles." Those which he terms " Patent Spectacles" arc no other than those of amber ; the history and destructive use of that mate rial for Spectacles to imperfect vision is fully and most satis factorily explained by the undermentioned scientific authority: From the " Dictionary of Arts and Sciences" of Andrew Ure, M. D., F. R, S., &c., &c. " Amber is an indurated vegetable juice, and not produced by the laws of crystallisation, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into frag ments ; the workmen, too, are subject to nt- vous tremors in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they encounter great Ganger by handling such dreadful excited eleetrics ; amber grows with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to warmth, that it swells, bubtles up, and will burn away with flame." The above Dr. Ure's statements are further confirmed by Sir D. Brewster and Pliny, as also by Parks and Hems. on Che mistry. The destructive effects of such a material for specta cles, to imperfect vision, may bo ascertained at any respectable Optician's in London. The Messrs. Solomons' newly invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material ; but which are very supe rior, and bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its original and natural state. These Spectacles, and very small Voice Conductors for deaf persons, are to be had at their establishments, 39, Albemarle-street (opposite the York Hotel), and 76, King William-street, Bank.

TEMPLETON, Late Reporter for the " Manchester Times." W. S. Orr and Co., Amen Corner, Paternoster -row,london ; Bancks and Co., St. Ann's-square, and Heywood, Oldham street, Manchester ; and may be had of all I3ooksellers. By these Lessons any person may make himself acquainted with stenography in an incredibly short time. The author re quests attention to the following notices -- " Possessing at least fifteen years' practical experience, and having read every system of short-hand I could obtain access to—having . myself a collection of about sixty different systems, printed and in II S.—l may say that, as it appears to me, you are the first to strike out of the beaten path of steno graphical writers and teachers, in the mode of your instruc tion and order of your lessons I think a more rapid progress may be made in the knowledge, not only of your particular system, but of the principles of the art generally, by your book than by any other I have seen."—Let ter from Mr. J. Harland, Reporter, Manchester Guardian. " The simplicity and orderly arrangement of the lessons ar e such as we have never seen equalled ; indeed, nothing better adapted to the wants of students of short-hand could be de sired or coneeiveq."—Manchester Courier. " From the clear and easy rules laid down in it to instruct the learner, it is ohe of the best works •n short-hand that a student. can possibly lay hold of ; and, viewing it in comparison with other works on the subject, we do not think it has a com petitor."—Manchester Times. " We have looked through this treatise with much satisfac tion, and believe we are safe in recommending it to the atten tion of all intending students of the art, as the most complete, sensible, andpractieable system ever brought under our notice." —Manchester and Salford Advertiser. " The arrangement of the lessons is at once novel and ex cellent, and the instructions are conveyed in clear and perspi cuous language. We have no hesitation in saying that the learner needs no other instructor than this little work to enable him to acquire the art, and to practise it with success." —Leeds Times. " We have read this little treatise very attentively, and have no hesitation in pronouncing it the best work on the subject that has N et been published."—Post Magazine. " Air. 'Templeton's character as a short-hand writer, in con nection with the press for a number of years, is a sufficient guarantee of the practicability and excellence of his system." —Manchester Chronicle. " Mr. Templeton's great experience and general accuracy as a short-hand writer entitle his observations on the teaching of the art to careful attention. From our own knowledge of Mr. Templeton's capabilities, as well as from a careful perusal of his work, we have formed a very high opinion of its merits." —Leeds Intelligencer. " Among the best works oi4 this branch of science is ono lately published by Mr. P. B. Templeton, a gentleman who has been a long time connected with the English press, and who is as skillet in the practice as in the theory of short-hand writing."—Dublin Pilot. " The exercises given only require a little attention to be understood; and we may venture to assert, that With Mr. Templeton's six lessons as guides, if the learner possesses ap plication for study and opportunity for practice, he may ac quire, in a short time, sufficient knowledge of short-hand to be able to follow the most fluent speaker."—Duhlin Evening Packet. " We have read this little book with great care and attention, and we feel no hesitation in recommending it as the very best treatise we have ever read on the science of short-hand. It is the practical work of a practical man. Nothing is laid down by the author as proper to he done that he has not himself found to be so—and that the writer of this, who has had some fifteen years experience in the Law Courts, at public meetings, and in the gallery, does not cordially approve of."—Planet. " Those who wish to know short-hand, and desire to prac tise it, as they see it every day used by those connected with the Press, will learn ' the six lessons' by Mr. Templeton, and persevere with them. Those who hale a desire to be deluded —to lose at once their money and their time—will deal with the advertising quarks who prof, ss to make men accomplished stenographists in a few days—they might as well profess to teach a child to read in six hours from the first moment at which it commenced learning its alphabet. Mr. Templeton professes no such thing. Ho gives six good lessons in short hand—and he leaves them to the learner, with sound advice, 'hat requires only to be followed to be most profitable."—Bell's New Weekly Messenger. " After giving Mr. Templeton's book a careful perusal, we have much pleasure in recommending it as tee best work on the subject we ever happened to meet."—Bolton Free Press. " The student will find this a simple and easy system. The alphabet, the prefixes, and terminations, as well as the arbi trares, appear to be easy of acquisition, and judiciously selected for rapidity in writing, while the rul-s and exercises are so plain and succinct that they cannot be misunderstood."—York Herald. " To those who are about to engage in tl o study of this use ful and interesting science we would point out this cheap little work as worthy of their attention, feeling assured that the carrying out of the system laid down will enable them to realize most of the great and important advantages connected with it. It is written by a practical man, one who has had many years experience in short-hand writing, both for his own private purpo:e and for the benefit of the public in connection with the newspaper press in some of the largest towns in this country."—Yorkshireman .

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the el dinary practitioner. To 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.

THE CORDIAL BALM of SYRIACUM is intended to relieve those persons who, by an immo derate indulgence of their passions, have ruined their constitu tion, or, on their way to the consummation of that deplorable state, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous sys tem, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses , irregu larity, obstructio ns o f certain evacuations, weakness, total im potency, barrenness, &c. But the relief administered is not confined to these alone. The valetudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents the inheritance of a diseased and un prolific frame ; the delicate female, whom an immured and in active life, together with the immoderate use of tea and other weak and watery aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and is, without timely assistance, sinking into an un timely grave. Constitutions relaxed, weak, or decayed, in men o: women, are under the immediate influence of this restorative. Old coughs, a-threas, and consumptive habits are soon relieved, and speedily cum.!.

In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal powers, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, without interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable.
