This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and en!ar ne ged by the addition of a mor e extended and clear detail of geral principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has beer already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, hays been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial aed well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. to order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have fur a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of so doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances of consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent. a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in cons,- which, for want of careful investiga qiuoennoefe ietfs rseemalecaduis:er has been set down to the score of con perusing this work, be astonished to find, nine-t enths of the cases of young persons of both he perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, sexes, w pt i i n on, ni vi n i e l . l .t , disease, tahos, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has t 6 that u ni heart 'tt destructive habits ractised been the indulgence in cedes , . p by ore frequently than it is at all suspected. youth much m The PRECEPTO ,a . , , ..

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. tentation, and cote:tautly to expatiate upon the embar rassments which their owl' gross faults and unpardonable follies have thrown in the way of the future Government of the country, is a sublime of impudence to which it re quirod the wing of a modern Whig-Radical to soar. TIM ES.—An Irish rebellion, be it threatened frotn what quarter it may—be it. kindled by foreign emissarie; or by Riband conspirators, or by impudent, cowardly, cunning agitators—be it hatched'in the turbulent Corn- Exchange or preached front the altar of peace—must be pnt doWn, just as a Chartist rebellion must be, by the strung arms of the law. Minister standing in a mino rity. or even in a very small majority, of the House of Commons, would tie doubt have felt a difficulty in aecomplishing this result, because. the means yvould have been .uenied, or but scantily and, ineffectually af forded. to him. But, a Minister - trusted by both Houses of Parlhonent has the means of conquering such "ditii ,..lllll,•"'onvitit4-;.ining the diz!lif‘ of till, 4 i'mt — im 11,• 11,khie ,(1.• made by the Crown with th e - l't - f-tsn.ky.—Arrangenients having been Princess Sophia (to whom the mansion 811(1 grounds at :Frogmore reverted upon the . death of her late Royal Highn es s the Princess Augusta) fttr the possession of- this v a luable_ property, ' alt and improvements upon an extensive scale have been de termined upon, to take place forthwith.. This property deseended to the Princess Sophia as the eldest unmarried sister of the Princess .

CLIRONICLE.—Our recent remarks on Sir Robert Peel have - been described as outpourings of rage, malig nity, and we know not what diabolical divositions. And yet; what have we said of him that the organs •of his own party have not said before, and that, too, within a very few months or ra , eks, or even days If we have noticed the fact that he is most thoroughly destitute of that personal attachment which has been uSuaily.exeited by a political leader,. so said the Morning Poet, very lately. If we have noted aught ill hiM of narroV:. and selfish, it has o:•.ly been a coincidence with the Bri tish Critic, which resolves his whole character and po licy•into a hollow selfism. If the sacrifice of principle to expediency, in his tactics, have turned Our censure, we could have cited the Quarterly Review for the fact, With or without its indications of bitterness in the, proßeb.

We do not make these allusions for the sake of precedent or authority. Let what we have written be tried by its own truth and consistency. But • charges against us of spite anti malignity are rather curious from any such quarters. We . " attack " Sir Robert Peel. Why, everybody at tacks Sir Robert Peel. Every section of his . own party has, in turn, complained of the political dishonesty, the trickiness, the superficiality, the unreliability, of his political character. They say nothing about suelkquali ties just now, because he is quite necessary to their prospects. But our mouths are not therefore stopped. W4thifnrirsPrf , utalignity towendaldna than _thetusitiv,es porchanee with not half so much as some of them ; we say out now the truth which they think and know at all times. Moreover, we have our own reasons tin- not allowing the sayings and doing of Sir Robert Peel at this juncture to pass uncommented, and those reasons are at the service of the public. Sir Robert Peel aspires to be Prime Minister of this Empire, against the known desire of the Sovereign. is not this a challenge for a rigid scrutiny into hispretensions ? Has he the States manlike genius that is required to excuse such an ambi tion ? If ever man possessedit, George Canning was that man. Nor was Canning an unacceptable servant.to his Sovereign. And yet then, Sir Robert Peel acted on the principle that the comparatively ple beian station of Canning nullified the claims of his genius to command. Canning wore no coronet, and . Canning was in favour of Catholic Emancipa tion ! Such were the tests without which Sir Robert Peel held genius as nothing. We do not apply them to himself ; we do not ask him to be a noble or a Canning ; but of his speeches,. character and policy, we do ask that which shall warrant his .forcing him self, or being forced upon a reluctant Sovereign, wi,h whom rests, constitutionally, the choice of her own Mi nisters. We look in vain for any semblance of an excuse. We trust the insolent attempt will even yet be baffled. Sir Robert Peel has defeated the introduction of mea sures that promised both to alleviate the public bur dens and to increase the public revenue. This, again, is a challenge to scrutinize his own policy, for the sake of Which he has obstructed so great a good. And where is it ? Where shall we find it, for the scrutiny thus dar ing!y invited ? It only exists in negatives, and these very negatives so ambiguous and equivocal, that his own par tisanS are recommending him to adopt, at once, the policy of his opponents. He has successfully resisted even the proposition for the discussion of measures for un taxing the common necessaries of- life ; and when his substitute is inquired for, lie deems it enough to say that he will wait, and only produce the prescription after he has taken the fee. There can be no ." attack" upon such conduct in a pretended statesman. Vitu peration has no terms in its vocabulary so bitter as the bare facts. • Ivrti as agaiii6l r‘irrigii it 1611 :?itid . alai there et. middle coorit. to which none : t.t . the iliregeintr twpotieott: aphh, that the tigitators. luting how they - can :iehiere the wt./in/um of ,„;,,,. : hi e r h , the State with t 1. iNinintara of danger. to theutselves, may continue to exciteand encourage disturbances, yet avoid the responsibility and• danger of bringing those disturbances to' head.

A Correspondent, who is interested in the welfare of that Institution, conceives that it implies an extraordinnry degree of ignorance in Stock-Exchange business not to perceive from its very title (for there are yet no other data) the manifest utility. of the scheme. Untbrtimatelv this ignorance is participated in by all the leading members >f the Stoel:-Exchange, Who are utterly at a loss to percale the purpose of a new bank " to take in stoek and sluves." An explanation is offered by the same Correspondent, which does not, however, contribute much towards the clearing up of the mystee 4 y. It seems that the object of the Stock Eichinge Bank is to protect the " Bull" - froth having his stock ihrown upon the market, so as to depreciate its value, and deprive the !` Bear " of the very " unfair advantage " which he now has over the " Bull." If the " Bear" really had an advantage over the " Bull," such an explanation would be at least intelligible, but those who are aware of the .operations of the Stock-Ex change know that the reverse is the case. If the " Bull," on a " Bull account," has to sacrifice stock, or pay a heavy continuation, the "Bear,"-on a "Bear ac count," if he is not prepared with stock to deliver, has . to procure it at the best price he can, and is just as liable to be obliged to sacrifice his money as the speculator for the rise is tor sacrifice his stock; only there is this differ ence between them, that a very great scarcity of stock is snore frequent than a very great tightness of money, and that therefore it is generally more easy to obtain money upon stock than stock upon money. To illustrate this it is only necessary to refer to a well-known case which occurred in the City some years ago, when a gentleman of high connexions, and subsequently a Peer. applied to a leading capitalist for an appropriation of. shares in an Insurance Company now of high eminence, and, assuming that be would have an appropriation, sold them at a price which; if he had had them to deliver, would have brought bins a profit of 101. per share. The capitalist, however, learning the transaction into which the applicant had prematurely entered, and perceiving that he (the applicant) could not procure the shares in the market for the settlement of his account, refused to appropriate him any shares, so that be was finally compelled to purchase them in the Market at a premium of 22/., Which canzed him to sacrifice 121. instead of gain ing 101. per share. Such an incident could not have happened to a' purchaser for time, as money was more easily to be obtained than shares. Thus the " Bull" really has the best position, and an institution to give him additional advantages, by keeping up the price of . stock, would lead to unfairness instead of preventing it. It will be perceived that the explanation is not at all cal culated to enlighten the public, who will probably have a clearer insight into the nature of the concern from the fact that the appropriation letters are now dealt in at the New Stock Exchange in Throgmorton-street. Another Correspondent *rites that these letters to be had at, the rate of Id. or 4d. per share ; but this statement is to be received with caution, as there were some reports • that they are sold. for 3d., and evenfor as Much-0.5.6d. ---- A gravelled road will be made from Froinnore-house to the gardens, for the accommodation of b her Majesty to proceed to the terrace and gardens, each side of which will be planted with flowers, shrubs, and evergreens. A high oak fence has been contracted to be built, up wards of 1,000 yards in length, by Mr. Marshall, of Godalming; and the old boundary wall, to the extent of 900 feet in length, abutting on the high-road leading from Frogmore to Old Windsor, is to be considerably heightened. The beautiful conservatory in the Great Park, erected by George IV. at the Cottage, is to be taken down, and placed in the new gardens. The contract at present entered into will amount to about 11,0001. or 12,0001. The final completion of the various alterations and improvements will cost about 20,0001. Extensive repairs and embellishments will immediately be proceeded with in the interior of the mansion, to ren der it fitting for the occupation of • her Royal Highness the Duchess of Kent, and for the occasional visits of her Majesty, which will be frequent from its contiguity to the Castle. During the lifetime of Queen Charlotte Frogmore lodge was used by her Majesty as a nursery for the younger branches of the Royal Family, and there is little doubt that a portion of the house is intended to be appropriated by her present Majesty to a similar pur pose, under the inspection of her Majesty's illustrious parent, the Duchess of Kent. • CHESTER REGATTA. (From the Liverpool Times.) On Thursday last the regatta came-off at Chester, and the fineness of the morning gave earnest of a delightful pastime to the lovers of aquatic sports. By previous arrangements, the principal places of business were all closed by noon ; and soon after the steam of our popula tion were seen wending their way to the banks of the Dee, on the tiptoe of expectation. Long before the commencement of the races, the shores of the river were pretty well lined with spectators, who had come forth to enjoy the beautiful spectacle, and with it the pleasures of a sunshine holiday. The fine band of the 68th regiment were on the green sward, nearly opposite St. John's Church ; and on the same spot were tents and booths, of various descriptions, some, grotesque and Wild, whilst others were of a higher: order of rural architecture. • • The Members' Plate was the most exciting of all the races, and a very splendid race it was. The crews in the respective boats seemed eager for the signal to start, and when the competitors- had - arranged' their boats in the manner prescribes by Mr. Green, every man gave ear attentive for the sound of the pistol ; when the crews all bent to their oars, and away they scudded to the goal. No flagging here—all a pplied to the oar with unabated zeal ; the watchword was courage, and higher metal was never shown ; the Liverpool and Dublin men pulled manfully, and after a noble struggle, Perhaps un exampled as to the trim of the boats and crews in the Dee ; the pistol was fired over the head of the Princess Royal, and awarded victory to the Cestrians. It was gained by three lengths. Shouts then rent the air— commendations were passed on the skill and prowess of the crews—and congratulations to the victors, who now bore away the palm. The Dublin men conducted themselves in a manner befitting the occasion ; they 'acknowledged their defeat, and admitted the distance was enough ; they endured it all cheerfully, and dined with the Costrian 'Club, at the Spread of the Hop Pole, displaying the wonted cheer fulness of the sons o f? Erin. We must not omit to state, that the Liverpool and Chester men were trained— the former by .T. Ripping, of London ; the latter by R. Coombes, of London ; both well-known trainers in their beautiful art. HERALD.—Manchester will be invaded on the 17th inst. by two hundred and eighty dissenting ministers, who, after having captured the beds, and billeted them selves on tl e board of its inhabitants, are to meet and mingle their "sweet yokes" in a Conference on the Corn-laws. That the object of this politico-religious synod is to ameliorate the condition of the working people we utterly disbelieve ; its real design is to add another link to the chain which alone binds together and supports political dissent. The decadence of that , dis- Sent is only to be prevented by its connexion with Whig- Radical • and Republican agitation. " Church-rates," " freedom of conscience," and the "martyrdom " of cob blers, have ceased to be sufficiently exciting topics ; and they are new •to be laid aside for the more inflammatory subjects of " cheap bread " and "full employment." dissenting teachers are the Swiss of ,the hood; they'exist only by controversy ; they are the off, spring of perversity and heterodoxy ; in discord and dis putation alone do they " move, breathe, and have their being." • " For pleas of right let statesmen vex their heal, Disputes their business, and their guerdon bread ; And, with the sworded Switzer, they can say, The best of causes is the best of pay. , ' That any actual mischief will result from this confe rence of clerical agitators we do not assert ; but the time and the place of this factious conference are exceed ingly well chosen for mischief. These reverend persons have resolved to assemble in a town crowded to over flow with a teeming population, at all times very un manageable, but most excitable when reduced, by causes which we have lately explained, to short work and wages. The employers of this population have, for their own ad vantage, induced it to attribute all its temporal suffering and privation to the Corn-laws. Now throughout this population there has at all times run a strange fanati cal sense of religion ; its worst outbreaks against autho rity have all been connected with some unjustifiable dog mas previously extracted from, or based on some misin terpreted or perverted passage of Scripture. The radi calism of 1819 and the Chartism of 1839 were equally attempted to he justified by texts and quotations from the sacred writings. Some of the leaders of both periods and both factions were preachers and teachers. The speakerS at all the public meetings and festivals of the manufacturing operatives garnish their revolutionary ora tions by scraps from both Testaments; the flags and banners that adorn their processions and assemblies are inscribed with mottoes taken from the same holy 'sources. There is no religious sect, however extravagant, no religious opinions, however wild and visionary, but will gain some adherents and followers and apostles in the district of Manchester. Day by day new schemes of religion, new articles of faith, titers appear and are adopted; the dress I that signalized the followers of Joanna Southeote is still to be seen in this neighbourhood, and the coming of the j Shiloh is yet expected by a few in its vicinity. ADVERTISER.—If any opinion may be formed of the purposed policy of Sir Robert Peel, from the lucid intimations of the Tory press, the proximate Premier is certainly preparing a very . " pretty dish to lay. before the Queen."rhe chief ingredient in the proposed Ministerial mess is to be Church ascendancy in its infi nite variety of abuses. - " If," saith the Times, " the Conservatives do not faithfully, steadily, and courageously adhere to the Church, vindicate her rights, and assert her liberties, they will soon have reason to regret that they have assumed at all. They may depend upon it, that the confidence of the Church is the real :Jecret of their power, and that the reaction by which they have been borne back to ascendancy has been essentially her work." Assuming the accuracy of - this assertion, on the faith of the faithless Times,. the (pies• tiOn which naturally presents itself is, " Arc we or are we not to have a Church Government whole merit of the alleged reaction • is here attributed to the Church, and in ref irn for her services she claims a (Elva ascendancy in the national councils. Not in England only, but throughout all the dependencies of the British empire is the Church to reign paramount, and in this, ::a the Times intimates, is to be shown the grand " differ ence between Whigs and Conservative Not cads where Eilglaud has eattherity, but w here - even Tt• j , .. , ... . ADVERTISEE...L-A glance at the state and prospects ' of the cotton. trade, at a tune . when so much depression exists in this j important staple of consumption, may be of interest, not only to those trading in the article itself, but also to every one connected with the piece goods manufacture. We have only to look at statistical facts, and w e shall then at once be in a situation to judge of the effect of our system of commercial restriction, and of the danger we incur of seeing our trade cut off or lopped down with the United States, as well as with the Brazils, and others of our best customers. The imports of cotton into the United Kingdoui this year, to the Ist instant, amounted to :)56,620 bales, against 1,194,330 bales, during the same period of 1840. The stock on hand is reckoned to he 746,620 bales, while in August last, although the receipts had been so large, it was not higher than 595,440 bales, making a decrease of 238,000 bales in the arrivals, and yet an augmentation of 150,000 bales in the stock. This points naturally to a dimi nished consumption, and upon reference to the returns we find this decline to' have been from 787,900 bales during the first seven months of 1840, to 626,110 bales during the corresponding period this year. The United States appear to have suffered most by the decay of our manufacturing industry, for there has been an increased consumption of cotton in our East India possessions. With the certainty of average crops in .America, or that even should they not prove an average, they will produce inure than we want, it is not to be wondered at that the market for the staple should wear so heavy an appear ance. There were symptoms of improvement, it is true, about a month ago, but these have proved evanescent, and bound up as is the very life and soul of the trade with the prosperity of . our export commerce, we scarcely see what hope there 'is of its assuming for a long tune a healthy state of -activity. Unfortunately the evil does not rest here, for it • ever grows while it exists. - Thus, our inability to become better, or even such good, customers as formerly to the American growers, deprives them in turn of the power to take s 6 large a quantity as usual of our manufactures ; and our anti-foreign policy, our undue preference • of colonial trade, leaves us no other outlet to make good that we lose, since the inability to serve our own possessions is quite as great under the present system as is that to (10 good to foreign customers. One evident result of this, beyond all dispute, must be, to drive those who cannot afford to purchase our goods with cash, to look at home for the means of obtaining them, and thus b eg i ns the ' necessity, or, which soon follows, the 'taste for mann- facturing. All these are such well-understood facts, and are so bruited about and openly discussed at the present moment among parties of every shade of politics, that we are almost weary of even alluding to them ; but, in spite of the ungracious task, we cannot refrain front noting the daily evidence around us of the thorough rottenness or inefficacy of our commercial tariff.

POST.—We have frequently drawn attention to the injurious, and, in too many ea ses, ruinous effects of the extension of credit consequent upon the introduction of Joint-Stockl3anlis. In doing so we have not attacked the prmc • ipc l•, but the mode in which man y of these institu tions have been fir st concocted, and the manner in which they have subsequently been carried on. The security of the public who depos i t their wealth or har d ear nin g s, in the case of well-conducted Joint-Stock Banks,is,prima ' facie, greater where the capital on which the credit • of the establistinint stands. is known, and periodi cally lilted, than when it rests on report merely, or Nnioctare, But capital is not the only foundation on which confidence should be made to rest. Th e characters of the parties to whom its administration, is confided, not for.probity alone, but for experience also, their position in society placing them 4b.cove the suspicion of employing it for their inclivisbAl advantage, should constitute even more than e-apital its claim to public support.

The Duke of Northumberland has f our h un d re d tenants-at-will pos sessing votes in North Northumberland, and the poll books show that out of these four hundred the number who voted in favour of Lord Howie]; amounted precisely to two !—not two hundrei, but two single individuals. To add one word by way of showing the full meaning of this fact would be sup er fl uous —t o proceed to argue from it would only weaken its force. No man in his senses would venture to say that there is to be found in broad Britain a rural parish, or a street of a town, con taining 400 inhabitants, 398 of whom are, to a man, of one mind in politics, or in almost anything else regard ing which there can be more than one opinion ; and, no honest man will attempt to avoid the inference that not some, but many out of these 398 of the Duke's tenants must have been coerced to vote against their wishes and convictions. It may be addZsl that those who possess the best means of !brining au opinion on the sub ject-4'mm acquaintanceship, local residence, and being engaged in the late canvass—estimate that (plumpers and splits together) 350 out of the 400 were desirous, were eager, to vote for Lord 1 - lowick ; and of these, all but two suffered their independence to be trampled down by the 'myriridens of the Castle ! High honour to the Two !—the brave and honst two ! The Lord of Alt wick Castle ought to be prouder of numbering among his tenacts these two, who, like men and Englishmen 'with stood his tyranny, and defended and preserved their rights, than of, the hundret& of serfs )rho suffered him rob them of their freedom, their honesty, and their self. respect.—Berir irk Advertiser.

POST.—The opponents of Sir Robert Peel take a malignant delight in numbering up the difficulties with which he will have to contend, if the Government should be placed in his hands, and those of hie political friends. We do not deny that the difficulties tote contended with are very formidable, and enough to cast anxiety - upon the mind of the ablest director of public. affairs.- 13ut we must bear in mind that it is the reckless mismanage ment of the present Ministers which has called these difficulties into existence ; and however clouded - 'the prospects of the country may be, it is at least some con solation that the blunderers who have brought us into this position have now virtually received their dismissal - from a disgusted and indignant public. When we say this we do not desire to be understood as laying; down the general rile that all national embarrassment and' national' misfortune should be laid to the account of !h e Govermlient. On the contrary, we believe that the power and influence of political government over those matters which constitute the prosperity or adversity of the mass of are generally in no slight degree exagge the people, rated. Much may indeed be done by political govern ment, but much more is beiond its reach ; and in pro portion as government is of that kind which men are apt inconsiderately to call "free," the actual power of politi cal g overnment over the destinies of the people is les sened. But with regard to existing national difficulties, they may almost all be distinctly traced toneglect, misma nagement, and absolute desertion of duty on the part of those who were entrusted with the government.

Of this we have already before us but too many instances. Where Joint-Stock Banks hive been properly organised, they have done good, and we have uniformly spoken encouragingly of those that have afforded prove of their being of the number. Our pro vince has, however, been that of attending more particu larly to the injurious working of the system. Well con ducted 'banks need no pointing out, - except occasion ally, perhaps, as examples worthy of imitation ; but the exposure of fraud and deception, wherever they are known to form the basis of, or to be practised in the management of a bank, we hold to be most important to persons interested in it, as well as to the community at large. Fault has been frequently found with the Press by the Shareholders in Companies of all descrip tions for the freedom with which it has criticised their proceedings, as tending to depreciate their shares in the market ; and they are careful, whenever they have the misfortune to find themselves partners in a questionable concern, to abstain at public meetings from all interroga tion calculated to expose its weaker points. This feehng of solicitude for the nominal value of their property con tributes more than anything else to the growth and con tinuance of abuses, and leads to an eventual loss winch, by the exercise of a less timid policy from the first, 'night." be avoided. 1-1E1:411,1).--The meeting and proceedings of the Marylebone Joint Stock 13ank held yesterda7 have been the tot lie of !.reneral conversation and astonishment in the O R . :wxtio.. was held for the per)ose of di! - :,obite..; oil of vours , ! declaring- it , ifidTiVelle.

It is fair to add that he proposes a second mortgage, by way of additional cover on estates in Scotland valued at 55,0001., but ridden over by a first mortgage of 41,0004, which it may be feared will leave but a sorry remanet for clearing off his debt to th e Com pany. it would be a waste of time to dwell further upon such a joint-stock banking burlesque as exhibited by such exposures and such a belance sheet of brazen bank ruptcy. SUN.—The Market for the English Securities was very depressed to-day, and there was more disposition to effect sales. Consols for immediate transfer were reduced from 891 to 894 to 4, closing at the intermediate value of 89t. For Account the quotations were 89i to the last bargain being at 89i. Bank Stock was as low as 167} ; and South Sea Stock was marked 98g. Exchequer Bills were 14s. to 16s. premium ; India Bonds, 6s. to Bs. premium ; and -the New Three-and-a-Half per Cents. 98 / 4 to +. The feature in the Foreign Market was a decline. again in Spanish Bonds, in consequence of sales effected by the parties who, in the Stock Exchange, go under the denomination of the " Pigeon-men," these affecting- to re gard the state of affairs in Spain in an unfavourable light. The Active Spanish Stock was flat at 19:4 for money, but touchedlW 4 l fur account ; Portuguese Oki Five per Cents. were at 57, and Colombian Bonds at 20 to 194 ; Danish brought 79, and Dutch Two-and• u-Half per Cents. 51'i to 52. The sales in the Share Market were not extensive, but, nevertheless, the quotations gave way wherever they were attempted. Great Western were at 17 ; the.

In consequence of there existing a strong feeling of curiosity in the public mind to ascertain the circum stances relative to the extraordinary deportment of the boy Jones, we have made the fullest inquiries possible on the .subject,and are now able to lay before our readers the following statement, which is principally derived from the boy's father : The particulars of the boy having three times effected a mysterious entrance into Buckingham Palace - are already known, and it perhaps will be recollected that he left Tothill-fields prison on the 14th of June last, having completed a second term of incarceration of three months. During the time :Jones was in prison his con- . duet was most exemplary ; and we ought here to state, that the boy most positively denies that he ever was in the neighbourhood of Buckingham Palace after his last liberation from Tothill-fields, except on one oceasioa, when he walked up Constitution-hill on his - way to thq Setpelitirie- for .a bathe. Without further preface, however, we will proceed. to give a statement of the circumstances of this extraordi narynffair, which, as we before said, is chiefly derived from the boy's father. Ten or twelve days after Jones had been last released from prison, Mr. JaMes, of York - street, Westminster, and who is the landlord of the boy's father, called upon the latter, and inquired if he would like his bOy to accompany him (Mr. James) a few miles in the country, as he had several friends in the neighbourhood Of the 'Regent's-park, amongst whom 1w would try to get the boy a situation. The father did not object, and the boy and Mr. James went out forthe day. They returned, 'however, at night, when Mr. James said the places were all engaged, and then inquired if the boy . would like to go to sea, as he knew the captain of a ves sel who was a good kind of man, who he had no d mbt would take him as an apprentice for three years ; that he would receive wages of 301. or 40/. per annum. and that the money would be paid him at the end of each voy- AVt,wbea.be. would: be allowed to -return home - for a few" ,days. •Vr. James went on to say that it was Captain Taylor, of the ship Diamond, bound to Port William, that he meant, and who would sail from the London Docks in a few days (this was on the •ist - of July). The boy's father thanked Mr. James for his attention and kindness in trying to • obtain employment, and added that his son did not object to go to sea, but he would rather have a situation at home. Here the conver sation on this occasion ended. On the following morning, about ten o'clock, Mr. James called again, when the boy Jones, his father, and. Mr. James pro ceeded to Blackwall, for the purpose of having an inter view with the Captain of the Diamond or the agent of the ship. They saw the agent, when Mr. James said, " This is the boy and his father." After that a somewhat lengthened conversation ensued, during which it was stated* that the boy must• be fitted out for the voyage, and as his-father was a poor and needy man, with a large family to support, he must receive 5/. These terms, it appeared, were agreed upon, but it was said, before they were finally settled, the Captain's approbation must be obtained. Jones's father was then Wormed that the Diamond had left the Docks and sailed for Gravesend, and therefore they must follow it. Jones proposed to accompany them, when he was told that it would be bet ter for him not to do so, as his mean appearance would not be any credit to his son, and it was also urged that it would increase the expense ; that he might depend . upon it the parties accompanying . the boy would see all was right, and bring back his indentures, and he (Jones) might tell Mr. James's family he should be with them again at night, or, if not, " they might expect him when they saw him." After some further conversation they parted, and Mr. James, the boy, and a stranger (who, we have heard, was a Thames police-officer), started for Gravesend. This was on Thursday, the Ist of JulY. Nothing more was heard by the father until the Saturday following, when a note was read to him, stating that on their arrival at Gravesend the ship had sailed, and that the boy Jones expressed a wish to follow it into the Downs. From that hour until a report relating to the mysterious deportment of the boy appeared in the news papers, Jones's family heard nothing whatever on the subject. • The report stated that the boy had been taken to Cork, which caused great astonishment, but which proved to be true, as in a few days afterwards his father received a letter, bearing the postmark of Cork, of which the following is a verbatim copy " Cork, July 7. " Dear Father,—l am glad to inform you Mr. James, his friend (a police-officer), and myself; since leaving 'Westminster, are well. I have experienced the utmost friendship from Mr. James. In earnest, I wish the same never to be forgot. Having a good recommendation, I am happy and in excellent spirits. " Finally, I hope all of you are well. Please to inform Mrs. James that Mr. James intends to take a tour throtigh Ireland, and will not, therefore, return for ten days. I am on my road through Bristol." [After the' word " Bristol" had been written, it - appears that there was a wish to cancel it, as it is crossed several times ; but sufficient remains to make it.legible.l EDwinti JONES." To this letter is the fallowing postscript : " My kind love to all my brothers and sisters, and I hope ex,ermore they will become good children." This letter caused great anxiety to the boy's family, which was not•all allayed when another was read to his father, which had been received from Mr. James, in which it was stated that Captain Taylor, of the Diamond, refused to take the boy on board, and said that in conse quence of the reports which had appeared in the Lon don newspapers he would not receive him for 5001., or any other sum offered. We must here break off the narrative, for the pur pose of explaining that the letter from Cork, alleging Captain Taylor's refusal to receive the boy Jones on board the Diamond, is dated the 7th of July, the very day on which the report appeared in the London news papers, and which consequently could never have been heard or thought of at Cork at the time the letter was written. _ _ We have stated the father was informed, on the boy's arrival at Gravesend, and finding the Diamond had sailed, that he expressed a wish to follow the ship to the Downs. If he did express such a wish it certainly was not gratified, for on the same evening or the next day, Mr. Jones, his friend, and the boy returned to Lon don, and after staying some time in town . went on board another vessel .bound to Cork. The boy's father was told, that on returning to London his son did not wish to visit home, when he (the father) replied, " I do not believe it." As the Captain of the Diamond would not receive the boy,• on his father making inquiries on the subject, ari. other letter was read to him stating that his son was going to Plymouth ; but it appears, that in company with Mr. James and a stranger (the policeman), he proceeded to Bristol, in which city they all stopped a fortnight. What might be the object of so long a so journ at Bristol we leave to the curious to divine. Nothing is known by the friends of the boy, except it being staled Mr. James had friends in that place. The next account that was received of the boy Jones is con tained in a letter from the adventurous youth himself, dated Liverpool, July 15, 1841. The following is a copy : " Dear Father,—ln my progress lam glad to inform you Mr. James has entertained me with kindness. Our earnest views is ended. A pleasant voyage to Brazil with nv., with a good captain. You will add a calm to my mind, in believing your son hopes you are all well ; finally, I am in health, " My writings or otherwise keep them with careful ness. Believe me, &c. " P.S.—England is a most magnificent country. Her inhabitants arc a most gracious' (query, generous ?) people. I declare the same, inasmuch as I have experi enced a kind regard from several persons. At the pre sent time I am greatly extolled by Mr. James ; his ear nest views are promoting the welfare of deserving indi viduals, pursuant to establishing them in orderly courses. I trust may declare that my kind friend in the present case is a neighbour who has acted on a greater interest than generally." We give a copy of the above letter verbatim. It bears no : signature or, postmark, but .was handed -to Jones's father as having been received from Liverpool. '['he letter appears to have been Written by two persons, as the hand-writing of some ( - .1 the words is evidently diffe rent from others. The. father says part of it appears like the writing of the boy, but h , ; cannot clearly recog nise it, at the same time he would not say that it was not his.' On Friday week, Mr. James, after an absence of one month, arrived in London, but his statement did not allay the - anxiety which prevailed. He said that the boy was going to the Brazils in a ship of 270 tons burden, and that the first voyage would occupy nine months, but it was desirable " that nothing should be said on the sub jeet, if any inquiries were made of the family." One fact, however, was overheard by the father, in a conver sation on the subject, which appears very singular. When the boy JoneS was taken to the agent of the ship in which he has sailed, or is about to sail for the Brazils, the agent observed that the lad had a wig on his head, and inquired the reason ; the answer was, that lie had recently; had the ringworm, which the father declares is not the case. He (the father) is ex ceedingly anxious to ascertain whether the boy has gone abroad known as the boy discovered in Buckingham Pa lace ; if so, he thinks that he will be subject to great annoyance, or whether another name has been assumed, or he goes in his own proper name of Edward Jones. He also complains of not being fully informed of all particu lars relating to conveying the boy from place to place, and the secrecy which has attended all the movements. Since the above was written, • Jones has had other in terviews with Mr. James, and he says, that he is satisfied that Mr. James did all in his power to obtain the boy a comfortable situation on board a merchant shi p , and that he (Mr. James) had also promised to get a blind daughter of his into an asylum. I am requested by a gentleman, who arrived this gF os i impostion practised in Lon dagonai.nstnae moni i ii g from London , to caution the English public siinsfteormsofme that he and sezieria PUTrs booked and paid for their places throughout to Pans, oil the tt4r surance that they would have nothing else to pay ; but so far, f r om this being the itm case, they were- comp e ll e d t o pay on board the cte ov, it being clearly demonstrated to them that there was no connection between the Steam Company and the parties booking in London ; and it ap in - pears that on arriving Boulogne they had also to pay at the Diligence-office for Paris.—Paris Correspondence. THE HARVEST. The weather has been bright, but, for the season, un usually 'cold. The harvest has partially commenced round this neighbourhood, but, owing to the 'ate rains and wind, the corn has been i much laid, awl consequently in many places is still quite green, On the contrary, however, we have seen some fine fields of grain, which appear to have sustained no injury-fro:n the recent rains. The turnip plant looks well, and a full crop may he re lied on. A good second hay crop may be expected.— Cambridge Advertiser. The wheat; barley, and oats, - have been very much in jured by the high wind and rain the wheat in several fields has grown from the ear,' and if this inclement weather continues, the consequences dill be veryserions.

The long-continued wet weather has had a most dis astrous effect on the hay crops in many parts of this county, and large quantities have been totally spoiled. A considerable breadth of barley has been laid by the heavy rains, and the quality thereby much damaged. Wheat and oats generally look well, and of those an abundant crop may be anticipated should the weather prove favourable.—Boston Herald.

RENFIZEWSHIRE.—The past week has been a most favourable one for ripening and maturing. Dur'aig the beginning of last week we had a few warm sunshine days ; the latter half has been warm and 00 - tidy, with occasional showers, well calculated to refresh the pota toes, turnips, and even the oaterop, which too much heat ripens pronaturel.
