STEAM TO NEW YORK, CALLING at HALIFAX on her WAY OUT on the present Voyage. THE GREAT WESTERN, Lieutenant HOSKEN, R.N., Commander, as reit as fostered by such attentions; and, as Dav'cl Hume, speaking of a certain country, save, " the inhati tants were treated like wild beasts till they became such," the converse of the result may be expected when the rich treat the poor as friends and fellow-labourers is science and enEghtenment, teaching them that " Ignorance is the curse of God, ---- Knowledge the wing wherewith they fly to Heaven." To t'rLe who argue that the enctutal;ement cf science among the working classes makes them impatient of labour, and leads them to ir fit!elity, I adduce a whole nation as a proof to the contrary. What people is there on the face of the earth MUNI generally or bet . er educated than the Scotch; and what nation is there that surpasses, or even equal , , the Scotch, in patient endurance, in as:11114y, in industry, in pruclet ce, in ec , momy ? Let the former will, but now well cultivated, fields of Upper Canada answer the quer lion ; and, as to the ir.fidcltty to which popular let.ruing is said to le.td, I again ask, what people is there mere re ligious than the Scotch ? Where is ti , e Sabbath so well kept as in Scotland ? The masses of decently-dresEed peo t de going to their kirks, and places of worship on a Sunday, in Edinburgh and Glasgow, is a tight which will bear comparison with any city in Christendom.

A small yearly or weekly c ontribution will secure the most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is. a week) at 20 will at 65 give the policy holder the choice of an annuity for life of 471. 16s. 6d. • 394/. 11s. in cash; or policy without further contributions of 4661. at death. 2. Two-thirds at any time lent on deposit of policy, being a fund always available during sickness or want of employment. 3.

Maitland, Esq. sistant Resident This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only re quires, when an Insurance is for the whole period of lifo one half of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the date of the Policy, the other half may remain, subject to the payment of interest at 5 per cent, annually,. to be deducted at death, or may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this arrangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums for the first five years, instead of the whole, as in all other Companies. Thus a man of 25 years old may, by an annual payment of 281. 16s. 3d. for the first five years, and afterwards by paying yearly the full premium of 571. 12s. 6d., se cure to his widow and children at his death payment of no less than 3,0001., subject only to the deduction of 1441. ls. 3d., with interest, being the amount of premium unpaid. This Company holds out, in various other respects, great inducements to the public. When such facilities are afforded, it is clearly a moral duty in every parent who is not possessed of a fortune, but of an income, however moderate, to insure his life for a sum which may yield a comfortable provision for kis family.

Harland, Reporter, Manchester Guardian. " The simplicity and orderly arrangement of the lessons are such as we have never seen equalled ; indeed, nothing better adapted to the wants of students of short-hand could be de sired or conceived."—Manchester Courier. " From the clear and easy rules laid down in it to instruct the learner, it is one 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 . ion, and believe we are sale in recanmending it to the atten tion of all intending students of the art, as the most complete, :ensible, and practicable 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 yet been published."—Post Magazine. Mr. 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 attentiou. From our own knowledge of Mr. Templeton's capabilities, as well as from a careful perusal of his work, we have formed every high opinion of its merits." —Leeds Intelligencer. " Among the best works on this branch of science is one 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 be 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 have a desire to be deluded —to lose at once their money and their time—will deal with the advertising quacks who profess 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. He gives six good lessons in short hand—and he leaves them to the learner, with sound advice, that requires only to b• 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 tne 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 traries, appear to be easy of acquisition, and judiciously selected for rapidity in writing, while the rut-s and exercises are so plain and succinct that they cannot be misunderstood."—York Herald. " To those who are about to engage in tl e 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 clown 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 purpose and for the benefit of the public in connection with the newspaper press in some of the largest towns in this country.

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.

A S Manhood approaches, the human form, coun tenance, voice, and the whole intellectual character, ra pidly undergo a revolution. Love is the end and 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 and 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 health, that being only palliated which should have been effectually 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 pled ge ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poison, and to restore to its 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 empy ' r icism, which with reckless ignorance destroys where it should re . store; and, on the other hand, that unworthy " prtnciple"whose proud selfishness increases the embarrassment ofithe afflicted. All classes of society, the Anglo-Indian particularly, and those whose constitutions are enfeebled by the effects of a tropical climate, as well as such as are about to enter intmatrimonial life, are included in the limits of this address, and to all we confidently offer the result of many years' successful practice.

AT a MEETING of the INHABITANTS of the Borough of MANCHESTER, convened, in compliance with a numerously signed requisition, by the Mayor of the Borough, and holden in the Town Hall, in King-street, on Friday, the 19th day of March, 1841. , WILLIAM NEILD, Esq., Mayor, in the Chair. _ Moved by Mr. RICHARD CosnEN, seconded by the Rev. WILLIAM M'KERROW, and resolved— 1. That, in the opinion of this meeting, the State taxes ought to be imposed upon the different classes of the commu nity, with a due regard to their ability to sus!ain the public burdens; but a duty upon foreign corn—in other words, an impost upon the bread of the people—is a flagrant violation of this just principle, inasmuch as it taxes the poorest man as heavily as the richest upon the first necessary of life, con sumed in nearly equal proportions by all. Moved by Mr. GEORGE HADFmn, seconded by the Rev. FRANCIS BEA RDSALL, and resolved— 2. That a still greater injustice is inflicted by the Corn laws ; for, as the duty upon foreign corn, however small the quantity imported, raises equally the price of the whole of the home produce, a tax is thus imposed for the purpose of protec tion far greater than the amount contributed to the revenue ; and this tax is paid by the people at large, to a comparatively few rich proprietors of the soil, and for which they derive no benefit in return. Moved by Air. J. C. DTEn, seconded by Mr. GEORGE WIC,- sox, and resolved-1 3. That Divine Providence has given to different countries a variety of productions for the common benefit of all man kind; that the Corn-law prevents a free exchange of the pro ducts of our industry for the corn and food of other countries ; thus impiously interposing a barrier between the bounties of the Creator, and the wants of our industrious population ; and thereby frequently subjecting them to the evils of disease, de moralization, and premature death. Moved by Sir THOMAS POTTER, seconded by Mr. WILLIAM RAwsort, and resolved 4. That the following Petition be presented to the House of Commons by Mark Philips, Esq. ; and that Robert Hyde Greg, Esq., be respectfully requested to support the prayer thereof : To the Honourable the Commons of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, in_Parliament_assemblea.-7 The humble Petition of the Inhabitants of the Borough of Manchester, in Public Meeting assembled— Humbly Showeth— That, in the opinion of this Meeting, the State taxes ought to be imposed upon the different classes of the community with a due regard to their ability to sustain the public burdens ; but a duty upon foreign corn—in other words, an impost upon the bread of the people—is a flagrant violation of this just prin ciple, inasmuch as it taxes the poorest man as heavily as the richest upon the first necessary of life, consumed in nearly equal proportions by all. That a still greater injustice is inflicted by the Corn-law ; for, as the duty upon foreign corn, however small the quan tity imported, raises equally the price of the whole of the home produce, a tax is thus imposed for the purpose of protection far greater than the amount contributed to the revenue ; and this tax is paid by the people at large to a comparatively few rich proprietors of the soil, and for which they derive no be nefit in return. That Divine Providence has given to different countries a variety of productions for the common benefit of all mankind; that the Corn-law prevents a free exchange of the products of our industry for the corn and food of other countries ; thus impiously interposing a barrier between the bounties of the Creator, and the wants of our industrious population; and thereby frequently subjecting them to the evils of disease, de moralization, and premature death. That, in the opinion of your petitioners, the Corn and Pro , ision-laws are contrary to the principles of religion and mora lity; and they pray that they may be immediately abolished. And your petitioners, as in duty bound, will ever pray. Moyed by Air. ROBERT GARDNER, seconded by 11Ir. C. H. JONES, and resolved :- 5. That, cordially concurring in the sentiment recently ex wessed in the House of Peers by a Noble Lord and a Right lleverend Prelate, that " the moral and religious improvement of the poor is inconsistent with their physical degradation," this meeting invites the assistance of every philanthropist and Christian, anxious for the spiritual welfare of his fellow-crea tures, in the endeavour to abolish laws which, by restricting the supply . of food and diminishing the supply of labour, tend to the rapid Impoverishment and degradation of the great body of our labouring population. Moved by Mr. SAMUEL STOCKS, seconded by Mr. JAMES HA 'UPSON, and resolved— 6. That th's meeting symp a thi zes w i t h a ll th ose who are de sirous of putting an end to monopolies of whatever descrip tion ; and it has seen with pleasure the declaration made at the late public meetings compo se d o f men o f diff eren t political parties in Gla , gow, Liverpool, and Salford, that fiscal duties ought not to be imposed for other than purposes of revenue. As a revenue duty upon corn necessarily implies a far heavier tax for protection, this meeting confidently relies upon the co operation of the advocates of a revision of our import duties in its efforts to exempt wholly from taxation the articles of corn and other provisions. (Signed) WM. NEILD, Mayor. The Mayor having left the Chair, it was taken by Sir Thomas Potter, when it was Moved by Mr. ROBERT GARDNFE, seconded by Mr. COBDEN, and resolved— 7. That the best thanks be given to his Worship the Mayor. for his patient, persevering, and impartial conduct as the Chair loppa of this meeting. (Signed) . THOMAS POTTER. T HE SILKSTONE PARKGATE COAL and IRON ESTATE. Capital £30,000, in Thirty Shares of £l,OOO each. No Deposit. A few gentlemen have joined together as Co-proprietors to introduce the best Yorkshire Coal into the London market. The chief reasons why this has not been hitherto done on a large scale, were, first, the uncertainty of obtaining freights at a re gular price ; and, secondly, the grasping avarice of those who did engage in the trade, inducing them to mix all sorts of rub bish with the Silkstone Coal, and thus injure its character with the public. To obviate these evils, it is proposed, first, that the Co-pro prietors shall be self-dependent, by having vessels of their oen, with steam-tugs down the Humber, and up the Th ames , so as i years unexpi re d ; i ts supply of Iron Ore is o f t h e hi ghest cha ts to be able to make ab out twenty voyages p er an num , at a i system much smaller cost than the p resent dilatory j and, se condly, by bringing on l y the produce . of thei r own p i ts to mar ket, to give a guarant ee to the I he, again s t any admixture with baser qualities. The Silkstone Parkgate Estate is held und er a renewable r L cu e nu a at s el e ri ~ s whichinexha ustible, Th e Royaltythirty-sixhaunder andd er which it is held i s a b out half the usual amount. 000 tons It is proposed that ab out 100, per annum of Coal shall be worked, and two fur laces flron erected.

Add freights of Beer, Colonial Produce P ers assen , - g and other sources of profit, say, per annum........ 2,000 which, upon the proposed capital of thirty th ousand pounds, will give a return of more t han 50 per cent. per annum. The Coals may be seen burning at the Swan with Two Necks, Lad-lane ; the Spread Eagle, Gra cechurch-street; Os burn's Hotel, Adelphi ; or the Caledonian Hotel, Adclphi. Such is the excellence of those Coals, and such the lowness of price, atter realising two shillings per tort profit, that one class of purchasers, consuming about 60,000 tons per annum, have already, alter subjecting them to a severe test, given a decided judgment in their favour over other coal from North umberland, fetching nearly ss. per ton more money. It will be seen that it is not i ntended to throw this valuable estate open in the ordinary wa y to speculators in Joint Stock Companies, or to encumber the profits with a set of Directors, or a staff of clerks. No one person will be allowed to hold less than 1,000/. in the concern, and several will hold much more. Hence the estate will be vested in as few hands, as many of the most profitable and best-conducted establishments in Northumberland and Dwitam,,,without being restricted by a " vend" or impeded by a" turn' Further particulars may be obtained of A.

" The Dissidence of Dissent and the Protestantism of the Protestant Religion." Tlie publication of this Paper, a Prospectus of which was circulated some months since, and which was projected for no pecuniary objects, but simply to serve the caure of civil and religious liberty, has hitherto been delayed by the deter mination of those interested in its success, to secure not only its thorough independence and uncompromising integrity, but its permanency as an organ of Liberal opinions ; these ends having been secured, the First Number will appear ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1841. It will advocate the rights of conscience on the broadest and most catholic principles; it will urge the separation of Church and State as the only firm basis upon which those rights can rest; Apd it will maintain, in subordination to this its primary object, a tone of decided liberklity in reference to all general political questions. The fullest information en passing events, both civil and religious, will be presented in a comprehensive form in the columns of this paper; and no exertions will be spared to render it an impartial and worthy representative of the great principles of Dissent.

KNOWLEDGE FOR THE PEOPLE. ASYLUM FOR SCIENCE. TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING ADVERTISER Sir,—l solicit the assistance of your widely-spread Journal to bring Wore the reflecting public a few facts and arguments on the much e)ntroverted question of edu cating working men, and on a kindred subject upon which I hope the. e will be no controversy at all, the propriety and necessity of providing a benevolent fund or institution for decayed and destitute men of science. Having seen the operation of the Andersonian Institution, and had something to do in preparing the laws of the Me chanics' Institution in Glasgow, I felt a desire a few years ago to form a similar institution in Lincoln, for the city and count:. Having sketched out a plan for a library, museum, lecture-rooms, class-rooms, &c. , excluding politics and pole mics from perusal or discussion, and resting the management of the whole in an annually elected committee of twelve working men, paying ls. 6d. per quartet etch, and in twelve gentlemen, subscribing ono guinea or more per an num each, assigning the whole of the property to trustees for the benefit of the operative classes for ever, I laid it before several leading gentlemen of all shades of opinion, and received from each a promise of cc-open ation. In a few weeks many hundreds had come forward to support it, and between 600/. and 600 L per annum, besides large donations of boas, Sm., bad been contributed. With tbe.e elements of success it was opened, and the first election of the Com mittee and the officers took place by written lises prepared at home, and destroyed by scrutineers after they were in spected. The result I adduce as a proof that the tendency of those institutions, when properly organized, is to decrease, and not increase, party animosities. The first honorary officer, Sir Edward French Bromhcad, Bart., who is the leading Conservative of the county, receiving, out of 212 voters, 198 votes. The second honorary officer, who was as notoriously a Whig, received 208 out of the same 212 voters; the former became the Hon. Baronet was known by the working elJsses to be their practical friend, and that nearly his whole life had been one consecutive contr . - bution of time and zeal in their behalf, and the latter be cause he had been mainly instrumental in forming the in stitution. Shortly afterwards, on a resignation from want of leisure taken place, an extreme Radical was unani mously elected in the room of the Whig, and tie institu tion was carried on most harmoniously and most efficiently under a Whig pat.-on, a Tory president, and a Radical secretary. Nor was this all. A few months afterwards the Whig patron, the Earl of Yarborough, delivered an elaborate ard argumentative address to a crowded hall of working men, on the mischievous effects of trades' unions upon their own members. Not only was this address, upon which the audience might be naturally expected to be both sore and sensirive, heard with patience, but with re peated plaudits; and many a working man went away with the conviction that to attempt to fetter or control voluntarily invested capita!, was to ruin the best market , for his own labour ; prejudicial it might be to the master, I suicidal it must be in the long run to the man. Why were unpalatable doctrines like these thus favour ably received ? Simply, because the Nobleman propound ing them had made great contributions f c r t h e J os t ' : u _ tion ; and the working melt knew him, as well es Sir Ed ward F. Ilrornhead, to be tittle friend. 'I hey aro shrewd enough to know that those who intend to oppress them will never Login by enlightening them—inasmuch as such erlightenment must ever be best protection against such oppression. Shortly Efterwards La!f a dozen similar icstitutions sprung up in vat iuus towns cf the county, affiliating with their parent; and hundreds, I may ear, thousands, c f walking men have been induced to exchanga tl7e tar room for the lectorz-room—clebaue! cry end ribaldry, for reading and reflection. That reasoning must be very in genious which would represent results like these as inimi cal to religion and the good order of society. I am satisfied, front experience, that the more the diffe rent classes are vandyked into one another, the better it is for all. It is a mistake to ircag;ne Oast the poor arc not gra'.efut for the attentions of the rif7h—tbey ive flattered A nation famed for song and beauty's charms ; Zealous, yet modest, innocent, though free ; Patient of toil, Serene amid alarms, hflexille in faith, invincible in arms." Anc'ent tat;ons, as well as modern, may be adduced as proofs of the great advantages of diffusing knowledge. What enabled the Greeks to combat and annihilate the mighty armies brought to crush them ? At the period when philt gophers walked with princes, Miltiades de feated the hosts of Xerxes, and Leonidas and his self. de toted 300 made a rampart with the'r bodies against hun dreds of thlusands. Every one Greek may be said to have conquered twenty Persians. Why ? Because, " Knowletige was power .because intelligence gives vitality to patriot;sm- - because every city of Greece was mote or less a " Mechanics' Institute." It has been, and it ever will be, that the most intellectual will be the most powerful people, As Phcelus to the world is se'enee to the soul. If there be any philosophy in Conservatism, I should say to the Conservatives—Educate the people. If you en franchise ignorant men they may " turn again and rend you." Tint was the chief argument against the Reform Bill—act upon it. The Reform Bill is carried, and can not be repealed. The law has beat lifted up to the wishes of the people, lift the people up to the law. You h,ve said " There is darger from popular ignorance." Get rid of it. The poor melt you assist to learn " Bacon's Natural Philosophy" will gradually imbibe his pulifeal— and tvitile they read in his profound page; that " know ledge is power," they may also read that " All changes are evils only to be justified by getting rid of greater evils;" and that pol t;cal changes, to be least dangerous, " should be like those of time; imperceptible in their progress, but felt in their effects." Could there be much danger in im bibing sentiments like these? And where will they find in the works of the greatest writers opinions of an opposite tendency ? It is wise to educate the people ; the stream that is gently led, irrigates and fertilizes the country around ; obstruct it, or attempt to dam it up, and it becomes a tor rent and an inundation, and calm and sincere men " htld their breath' with amazement at the mighty eweep it takes. It is wise, too, for good men of different opinions to have some neutral ground on which they can meet for one common object—what ground so beautiful, what object so benevolent, as to join in weaning the poor from animal to intellectual gratification? Look at the mighty good which the diffusion of knowledge has already occasioned. Let Catholicus," be he who he may, otherwise account Lr the glorious Reformation, than by the spreading of know ledge through the newly-discovered art of printing. I will set the philessophy of St. Psul against all that he has written. " Read all things, prove all things—hold fast that which is good." Religion has nothing to fear, but much to gain, from science and inquiry. Protestantism stands upon the basis of free discussion and free opinion. It owes its very name to the " protest " against the oppo site; and when the mind is once led earnestly to love knowledge, it Disdains to rest its heaven-aspiring wing Beneath its native quarry I now come to the second object of the letter, on which I trust there will be no difference of opinion, and that is, on the propriety and necessity of providing a benevolent fund for decayed and distressed men of science. Several years ago I was requested to draw up a memo rial of the case of Henry Bell, who had been declared, in a report of a Select Committee of the House of Commonsi, to have been tire first to successfully apply steam to naviga tion in this kingdom. He had conquered vast obsta cles by great perseverat co. The Lords of the Admi ralty, when he commenced, ridiculed the notion of ap plying steam power to any tele extent. Nevertheless, he went upon his own poor resource. After a hng or deal, the Comet was buil., and tailed up the Caledo nian Canal, to the amez,,ment and dismay of the sin-- phi Highlanders. Now that the success was cer tain, Companies arose and built better vessels than his, havit g more capital, and as he bad taken out no patent for his invention, competed with him, and not having to go through the sane ordeal, defeated him at a much smaller expenditure of time and money. In the mean time, in his ardour for improvement. a boiler burst, and he became a cripple for life. Under these circumstances, at GB years of age, involved in debt, with a prison in prospect, this conqueror of the winds and tides, this creator of the wealth of millions, aged, c,ippled, and destitute ap plied to Government for relirf, and his memorial was signed by many Members of Perlinment, Provost;, and Chief Magistrates of maritime towns. After dancing at tendance fcr several months be was then told that nothing could be done bim ; that he was too infirm for a country post-office, and that he could not be placed on the Scotch pension list, probably because his services had not been of that Parliamentary" nature which were generally so re warded. Poor old man l—he went home and died of a broken heart. _ Anoth&r case is more recent. An ingenious man, who invented a printing-press that bears his name—discovered a mode of curing a great natural defect . , and had taken out a patent for an improvement in travelling of very great importance, which I heard admired and praised by Lords ougharn and Lyndhurst, with other Members of the 1 3 , ivy Council—was unsuccessful in getting capitalists to aid him in carrying out his projects. Railways had super seded high-roads, and those who could best assist in adopt ing his improvement were interested in preventing it. He got ints debt—was cast into prison ; his wife while there died of the horrors of destitution and a broken heart ; his child died from the absence of maternal care—he, the prai , ed, the admired by Lords and by Judges, was at length !et cut a wifeless, a childless, a homeless man ! is it right ? 13 it wise? Is it just? If England be, as the la..e Mr. Rothschild described her, " the workshop of the world," is it right that the unfortunate among those who hove raised her by their science to riches and to re nown should be thus left to Fetish ? All trar'es have benevolent asylums, why should not science? The mimes of the crams have t' eir " Funds"—the sons of Parnassus :brie " Literary Association"—the very chsesemongers, poulterers, and even chimney-sweeps—why should not the unf. rtunatc (for there are unfortunate as well as fortunate) Arkwrights, Peels, Boltons, Watts, and the creators of mighty results, have also their protectirginsti.ulion—their temple at once of scieFee and benevolence ? Well, in deed, might Moore say-- " In the land cf the north, there are insects that prey On the brain of the elk tik iti very last sigh; On, genius, thy patrons, more cruel than they, First feed on t hy brains and then leave thee to die." I throw out these few hints for others who have more time and greater means to promote them, and have tho honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, W. S. NORTH HOUSE.

The business of the aisize concluded this day, having been heavier than has been known for many years. The Nisi Prius cases were concluded yesterday afternoon, and Lord Dentran then assisted Mr. Baron Rolfe in disposing of the criminal cases, which were destitute of public interest. CASTLE V. STRANNICK. This was an action to recover the amount of the damage done to a vessel called the Sybil, in con sequence of the negl,:ct and mismanagement, as was alleged, of the defendant, who is tLe harbour-master cf Margate . Mr Platt and Mr C. Jones were for the plaintiff, and Mr yliesiger and Sergeant Channell for the dcfenddnt. Mr PLATT said that the plaintiff was the owner of al schooner called the Sybil, and the defendant was the harbour-master of the port of Margate, appointed by the directors under an Act of the 52(1 George 111, when a new company was formed. By this Act the m oment a vessel entered the port the power of her commander was completely taken away, and vested in the har bour-master, and any disobedience of his orders su re jected them to heavy penalties. The law with gard to harbour-masters, and their liability, was similar to that of the Cinque pilots, who were liable to action, if, from ignorance or neglect of their duty, they caused damage to ship or cargo, and they might be called upon to make good the damage so occesioueil. The damages in the present case , were laid at 500/., and be had no doubt, after the ev idence he should call, the Jury would think him entitled to a verdict. William Cook Willis dep osed that he was master of the Sybil, bound Irons Hartlepool to Margate, with conk.. At three, a.m., on the 17th October last, 11( put into Margate Harbour, and proceeded towar d s the pier. The defendant inquired of him how much the vessel drew, and he told him eleven feet two "ler Inches, and the defendant then told him to m oor o ff ' e , gave him a the ,v, h light eh : he pillar,said, da,n contained, attl:e the rules am t i h Pi hies, nearregula tions of the harbour.

The lefendant sa'd he could not then, but would by-and-by. W:tness's vessel was then aground and making water, Ind he did not move the steamer, and witness said it cas a shame that the bottom of his vessel should knock out. Soon after this, the Neptune, a Dutch vessel, ran in, and came alongside him, and dropped Ler anchor riggingt oo eo n o , f so t t e h at she h .

They began to unload the cargo the day after she capsized. By Mr. THESIGER—Had sailed in the Sybil before, but only as Captain during this voyage. Never was in Margate harbour before. Win. Hunt has heal a master mariner, but is now a merchAnt at Margate. The cargo of the Sybil was consigned to him. He considered the vessel a very prop: r one to sail as a collier. In his opinion the Royal William ought to have been removed a-head When tLe wind blows from N.W. and N.N.W., the water within the pier increases four feet, and decreases as much when it blows from an opposite quarter. Timetliy Pike, a mater mariner, stated that be knows the Sy b.l ; had a voyage last summer in her as captain. She erformcd it very wall to Hartlepool and back. Knows that she had undergone repairs in Mar gate. Had a conversation wiih the defendant after the acci , 'ent, and be said he was sorry for it. Witness should have purchased the Sybil but for this accident. Welit a voyage in her on liking. George Lynch, a seaman on board the Red Rover on the 19th of October, stated that tic Royal William was moored in a part where steamers did not usually lie. There was no difficulty in moving her Wm. Mitt, a seaman on board the Sybil, stated that if the Royal William had been moved further a-head, the Sybil could have got off the sand-bank art the soft mud. George Gude, a shipwright, stated that he had sur veyed the Sybil, and found that it would take 2201. to put her into repair. TeSEsIGER addressed the Jury for the defence, and called several witnesses. Mr. PLATT replied. Lord DENMAN summed up the evidence, and the Jury after deliberating about half an hour returned a verdict for the plaintl—Damages, 751. NORFOLK CIRCUIT—HuNrixopoN, MARCH TO. James inglett, aged 94, was indicted for feloniously killing and slaying Elizabeth Harlots, by administering a quan,ity of arsenic. The very venerable person who stood charged with this offence has for many years carried on the business of farmer and " cow.lecch," and in the latter character is in the habit of administering medicines to various kinds o cattle. His great age and his I Jng acquaintance with the healing art have caused him to be regarded with much respect among the simple people of his neigh bourhood, where his character had hitherto ken unex ceptionable. The deceased, who lived in the village of Houghton, near this town, was taken ill during the last year, and the parish apothecary used all his art to restore her to health, but in vain. About Christmas the prisoner was called in to see her, and he immediately administered to her a dose of liquid medicine, which made her very sick and caused her great suffering, but she got better after taking it. On the morning of Monday the 11th of January, the prisoner ghee her a cup full of a similar medicine to that which he had before administered to her, and which bad made her so sick and ill. The deceased got much worse towards night, and from that time till her death she was constantly sick, and suffered excrutiating pain, with almost intolerable thirst. Early on Wednesday morning, January 11, having taken some opium pills, she fell into a quiet doze, and soon afterwards death's friendly band put an end to her sufferings, and she woke no more. No suspicicn was then entertained of her having died any other than a natural death, and in due time she was buried. When she had been ten days in the earth, however, various rumours got abroad respecting the cause of her death, and the County Coroner directed the body to be ex humed, and a jury to be summoned. Two surgeons examined the disinterred body, and found it in a generally healthy state, the organs being sound and free from disease; but the stomach and bowels were very much inflamed. Sub sequently the one infallible test, tt.e reproduction of else arsenic itself, left no doubt that the deceased had taken that dreadful poison shortly before her death ; and all the symptoms attending her last illness indicated that she had died of that poison. Verdict—Guilty. The Learned JUDGE observed, that all the ends ofjus tice would be answered by its being publicly stated and known, that if any person whatever presumes to adminis ter medically a deadly poison, and death ensues in eons*. quence of rashness and gross negligence on his part in the use of it, he is guilty of manslaughter. It would be a useless cruelty, at the time of life which the prisoner had reached, to inflict upon him a sever.: punishment; and as he bad been in gaol already six weeks, he should sentence him to be further imprisoned for one fortnight. The venerable old man, who seems to possess many of his bodily, and all his mental, faculties unimpaired, raid great attention to the case as it proceeded. His respect -111 demeanour, silvery hair, and mild countenance, created a strong impression is his favour in Court, and the trial caused great interest. N R 711 E RN CIRCUIT--YORK, MARC, 20. Peter Foden was indicted for riot and seditious con. spiracy, and pleaded Guilty. The prisoner had been indicted with several otittr., who are now undergoing various periods of imprisonment, for the outbreak which took place at Sheffield some time ago. lie had escaped from his bail, and has only been takes into custody within these three months. Mr. Wiumgs, for the prisoner, pressed on his Lord ship's notice the altered state of the country, and hoped that mercy might, without any evil result, be extended to the prisoner, who was sincerely penitent. His Lordship, after taking time to peruse the deposi tion., sentenced the prisoner to be imprisoned one year and nine months, saying, he could not make any distinction between him and those who had already been convicted MIDLAND CIRCUIT—Dim, Mißem IL Ik/try Hoskisson was charged with shooting one Ro bert Harvey, a gamekeeper of the Earl of Chesterfsid. The C( roner's Jury returned a verdict of wilful murder egAinst four rersons, namely, Hoskisson, Eames, Staley, and Adey, but the three latter were admitted Queen's evidence.
