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 enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medical practitioner. The proverbial 'and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic en the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order to obviate the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have for 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 practices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, wherein 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 conse quence of !erne disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con perusing this work, be astonished to find, con sumption, u thatmptiinon,nine-tenths on of the . cases of young pers ons o f b o th sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tapes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, b e directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con cealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils a re sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him throngh the intricate mazes of this moral lalraintli, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will ' here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to point out the dis astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished. Messrs. CURTIS and CO. are to be consulted daily at their residence, No. 7, Frith-street, Soho-square, London.

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. *TIMES.---- . -The premium on gold at Paris is 5. per mille, .at the English -Mint price, 31. 17s. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25. 27, and the exchange at Paris on London at short being 25. 421, it follows that gold is 0. 62 per cent dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 428 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/.175. 101 d. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13. 61, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13. 8, it follows that gold is 0. 69 per cent..dearer in Lon don than in Hamburgh. The advices from Lancashire to-day are not of a cheering character. Messrs. T. and H. Crofts, of Liverpool, who are concerned in the soap trade, have failed, and their liabilities are sup posed to amount to 45,0001. The acceptances of Messrs. Gisborne and Wilson, calico-printers, of Manchester, a firm of -some importance, have been refused. The London Money Market has been in nowise influenced by these occurrences, and it is expected in some quarters that the Man chester house will satisfy ail its creditors. Our letters from Amsterdam state that the general observation, to the effect that the pro duce of the Dutch East Indies has been much overrated has been confirmed by the publication of the account current of the Colonial and Gene ral Treasury. By this it appears, that during the years from 1834 to 1840, both inclusive, the Colonial Department has paid into the hands of the General Treasury the sum of 79,087,531 1. 561 cents, distributed as follows among the several years, viz., the year 1834, 7,200,000f1. ; the.year 1835, 10,283#896d4.014c.; the year 1836, 12,910,470 q.; the year 1837, 13,000,00 A. ; the year 1838, 10,743,550f1. 51c. ; the year 1839, 13,449,584f1. 97c. ; and the year 1840, 11,500,000f1. The Government had promised to pay, during the whole of the years here specified, a certain number of expenses besides the dividend on the East India loans, all which expenses during these years amount to 94,929,897f1. 981 c., so that the Colonial Department has remained beneath its obligations to the amount of 15,842,366f1. 42c. It is the knowledge of this state of affairs, be sides the probability of the colonial crop not proving so good as usual, that has, it is supposed, caused the Minister of Finance to take the sum of 5,500,000f1., the eventual surplus of East' India produce during the years 1842-3 from the Budget of revenue. HERALD.—The speculation lately com menced in Peninsular securities continues to be carried on with more spirit and good sense. Spanish Active, with the Coupons, were forced up to 231. Portuguese 'Five per Cents. to 32 to the Three per Cents. to 19 to 1. It does not appear that any more substantial causes exist for this new fit of speculative affection for these securities beyond the fitvourable opinion and the confidence entertained, and under this head yes terday coincided in, and to a fair ex tentjustified, in the character and ability of Surra y Rull, the Spa nish Finance Minister. But the bondholders should remember at least, leaving the mere stockjobbers to fleece each other as they like, that as yet, even from the present Spanish Minister, they have had nothing more than good words, replies to complaints made punctually by return of post, decrees on paper, and so forth. Fine words, as an old saw has it, butter no parsnips; and so far Senor Surra's civil speeches and letters have not produced one peso duro, or hard dollar. This is not said in any invidious sense or ill-feeling towards that functionary, who, so far as appears, has really performed as much as, under the un fortunate circumstances in which he has been placed, could be expected. The rise in Portu guese Stocks is, however, more to be wondered at still, for nothine , has occurred, to improve the position of the bondholders by one maravedi per cent., and as for the Government, as at present constituted, it has proved itself dishonest and rotten in all its official personalities and offi cial acts. • It is quite true that an action has been com menced by Coutts and Co., the eminent bankers, against Lord Strangf'ord, on the ground, it may be presumed, of having been induced, by his Lordship's representations in their favour, to make those advances to certain parties in the City on the deposit of ExCheqUer bills, now as-' certained to be fraudulently issued, if not forged, which leave them uncovered to the enormous extent of about 40,600/. His Lordship's disclaimer of any knowledge of or connection with the dis graceful Exchequer bill transactions, in any shape, will readily be accepted and believed. Still it appears desirable that some expla nation should be afforded in respect of the par ties so introduced to Messrs. Coutts, and who represented, as we are credibly informed, that their reasons for making the application for money advances on the deposit of Exchequer bills to those bankers were, because, first, it was of no advantage to make application to the Bank of England, where the accommodation might be had, as their regular notice for makinc , advances on such securities was run out within Four or five days, which was too short a period for the pur pose; secondly, because it was not convenient to their own bankers (that is of the party bor rowing) to make such advances. SUN.—The Funds kept the firm appearance assumed by them yesterday, and there Was a good deal of busi ness transacted, the advance being 4 per cent., and, taking the lowest rates of yesterday, 4 per cent.

At the close of the day, however, the prices for both were 888 to 89. Exchequer bills were much the same, being marked 9s. to 10s. premium, and India Bonds were 3s. to 2s. premium. The New Three-and a-Half per Cents. ranged from 988 to 991, and the Three per Cent. Annuities from 878 to 88. Bank-Stock im proved to 165, and East India Stock was firm at 249. The Foreign Market is in rather a good position, in consequence of an increased desire to speculate in Spa nish and Portuguese Securities. Spanish Active Bond s were quoted .221 and 231, closing at 231 to ; Portu guese New Five per Cents. were 328, and the Three per Cents. 193—a slight advance upon each, but with out much doing. Colombian Six per Cents. were 193 to 193, and Mexican 251 to 1. Passive Spanish Bonds were dealt in at 54 to 6. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents. touched 514 to 514. There was not much business done in the Share Market to-day, but the bargains entered into were at fully previous rates. Birmingham and Southampton were better ; London and Birmingham were 67 ; South Western 16i ; Great Western New 61; and York and North Midland 37 premium ; Brighton were 121, and South Eastern 24 discount.

The city of Exeter, with a less population, and no manufactures, has more depositors and a larger amount of deposits than Manchester, with its thousands of weavers and artisans ; and the City of Edinburgh, where the Savings' Bank System has not been in use for so long a period as in Manchester; actually rivals the latter in the number and value of its business in these Banks. The clear inference to be drawn from these facts is, that the debating leader of the Anti-Corn-law faction took no pains to weigh his ad captandum re marks, and that, finding a plausible answer to the manu facturers close at hand, he could not resist the temptation of drawing down a few party cheers, by givin g circula tion to the clap trap._wasyow Argus. THEATRES. COVENT-GARDEN. The opera of .Norma continues to be produced at this theatre on alternate nights, and on each occasion of Miss Kemble's appearance in the principal character the house has been crowded to excess. Last evening the audience was equally numerous and fashionable as when this lady was less familiar to the public, and the manner of her reception gave another proof of the high position she has attained on the English stage. The new farce of The Wrong Man succeeded the opera, and called forth general applause, which, we must confess, evinced the approbation of the audience more for the style in which the performers acquitted them selves than "or any extraordinary merit possessed by the production itself. The success of this piece, indeed, on the present and former occasions, must be attributed to the great exertions of the parties engaged in it, for without superior acting it would have been long since numbered with the things that were. Of those deserving this praise none seem to us to merit it in a greater degree than Miss Cooper and Mr. Bartley, the former of whom, in this piece, has had an opportunity of exhibiting her powers to better advantage than generally falls to her lot. Those who have se e n h er in the higher and more difficult characters of some of our standard dramatic authors will, we have no doubt, agree with us in thinking that she is capable of better parts than those for which she is generally cast at this establishment. It is to be regretted, therefore, that the talents of this young lady, eminent as she promises to be in her profession, are not looked upon in this light by the management, with whom chiefly rests the proper development of her abilities. The Omnibus concluded the evening's entertainments, the appointments of which reflect the highest credit on the taste of the enterprising lessee. DEFERRED ANNUITIES.

The Post is in a terrible rage. Racks, daggers, wretches, miscreants, traitors, " diabolical spirit," " ex asperated falsehoods," and " a satanic ingenuity," run through its columns in all the mazes of metaphorical confusion. The Post's leader of Friday last is, in tact, a perfect chef-d'ceuvre of naiaiserie and abuse. From beginning to end it is stuffed with hard words and Bil lingsgate epithets, nor indeed would it be easy to discover what it is all about, were it not for one little passage which, like a gleam of light breaking through the cir cumabient gloom, enables one to catch a faint glimpse of its gist, origin, and design. After nearly three quarters of a column of dark, obscure, unintelligible rhodomontade, from one single loophole the following little stream of light is suddenly thrown upon us : " Perhaps but very fcw of the aristocracy and gentry may be aware that the most influential journal of the ex-Ministerial party has not scrupled to turn to the ac count of faction evon the charitable exertions which a severe winter renders incumbent upon such as can afford to help the poor. It has been represented to the poor and needy that, but for the law, which the aristocracy uphold for their own exclusive advantage (meaning thereby the law for protecting British agri• culture from foreign competition), they might have twice as much meat, twice as much soup, and twice as much bread, from charitable sources, as they can have under present circumstances." " Angels and ministers of grace defend us I" what a pity it is that Anti-Corn law writers, who feel it incumbent on them to depict in the strongest terms possible the accumulated evils of that iniquitous law,—what a pity it is that they will not cut and mince, and soften and polish, and gild their phrases ; that they will not adopt a sort of mollified euphuism in order to please the delicate sensibilities of the too susceptible Post. But they sod/ not, and " there's the rub," no matter how the nertes of this fashionable morning lecturer may be ruffled and dis turbed. Amicus Flato, amicus Socrates, sed magis amica veritos. The truth must and will be told, no matter to what extent interesting mammas and sen timental young ladies may be terrified at the rough ex pressions which the iniquitous Corn-laws draw down upon the heads of their monopolising and guilty de fenders. But the article of the Post appears in won derfully appropriate time, after the meeting which was held at Sheffield on Monday last. The truth was there spoken out, and in pretty plain terms too. " What was the reason of ail this?•" said Mr. Ibbotson, alluding to the prostration of the American market. " Because the Americans have nothing to give us in exchange for our goods? America has an abundance of what our people are dying for." Aye, but then step in the Corn-laws, and prevent our starving m►lljons from being fed.. " Tell it not in Gatb though, proclaim it not in the streets of Ascalon," lest one rose-leaf may be ruf fled upon the couch of the lady-like Post. In fact, a more puerile and contemptible piece of unredeemed and unredeemable balderdash never disgraced the columns of the Post before. And at the " heel of the hunt " the Post recommends that it is now high time that there should be a sort of surveillance or espionage esta• blished over the press—whether public or private though it does not say. A very proper suggestion, in deed, to be thrown out by the leading journal of the Tories.—Sunday Times. The Gazette du Midi of the 16th (Marseilles paper) contains a long report of the trial of the Marquis de Forbin des Issart (a Legitimatist), a Major-General, formerly Deputy fur Vaucluse, and afterwards a Peer of France. M. de Forbin wrote a strong pamphlet, entitled "My Opiniop, on the Humana Census." It was an at tack on the Government, and the Crown lawyers prose cuted it before the Court of Assizes of Vaucluse, sitting at Carpentras. M. de Forbin was defended by MM. de Laboulie and Masson, the former once Deputy. The speeches for the prosecution and the defence embraced a complete political view of the state of France and her policy since 1830, and the discussion was carried on with much talent and earnestness on both sides. Two ques tions were put to the Jury, first, whether M. de Forbin's pamphlet was a provocation to disobey the laws (he hav ing recommended the closing of the doors against the agents of the census) ; and, secondly, whether the writ ing did not bring into hatred and contempt the King's Government. The Jury, after a few minutes' consulta tion, acquitted M. de Forbin on both qu es tions. The trial and verdict have caused much excitement in the south of France. A banquet has recently been given at Bonn, to the celebrated pianist, M. Liszt, in commemoration of the anniversary of his natal day, which was attended by about 280 of the first inhabitants, among whom were the Rector of the University, the cele brated Dr. Arndt, and • numerous other professors, the members of the Committee for the monument of Beethoven, M. Schadaw, the Director of the Academy at Dusseldorf, and many foreigners of distinction who . happened to be at Bonn at the time. In the evening a serenade was given by the Society of the Liedertalel. The next day M. Liszt started for Berlin, where doubt less brilliant triumphs await him.

Besides these, there are many novel views of character and manners, and a story of striking and peculiar interest, which will perhaps make " Fathers and Sons," the most popular of all the author's productions, admirable as they are univer sally considered. __ SIGHT AND HEARlNG.—Patronized by their Majesties the King and Queen of Hanover, and their Royal Highnesses the late Princess Augusta, the Princess Sophia, her Serene Highness the Princess Esterhazy, the Princesses Mary and Rosa, her Grace the Dowager Duchess of Bed ford, and their Graces the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Dukes of Norfolk, Devonshire, Manchester, and Marlborough, Marquises of Hertford, Londonderry, Sligo, and Thomond, Earls of Shaftesbury, Taukerville, Harewood, Powis, Bradford, Wick low, Verulam, Harrowby, Buckinghamshire, Meath, Somers, Ox ford, Lisburne, and Ferrers, Bishops of Exeter.

HAYMARKET. A most laughable farce, from the pen of Kenny, was produced at this theatre last evening, under the title of Love Extempore. The scene is laid at the country resi dence of Mrs. Oldstoek (Mrs. Stanley), where we find that lady's nephew, Sir llarry Nugent (Mr. F. Vining), desperately in love with his younger cousin Julia (Miss Charles). Mrs. Oldstock, however, has a due reverence for the rights of primogeniture, and has accordingly de termined that Julia shall not be wedded until her elder ,sister Prudence (Miss P. Horton) shall have been suited with a husband. • Now, as the said Prudence is a blue of the deepest dye, this is by no means an easy matter to accomplish. However, a certain Titus Livingstone (Mr. David Rees), a gentleman of the Neddy Bray school, calling to see his old friend Sir Harry Nugent, the lovers, aided by the Widow Courtney (Mrs. Stir ling), determine that he shall.be the victim, and, accord ! ingly, Titus and Prudence are actually talked into being in love with each other. It, however, comes to the know ledge of Mrs. Courtney that a marriage has been pro posed by Sir Edmund Livingstone (Gough) between his nephew Titus and the widow's sister Caroline, and as Titus is an excellent match, and heir to a Baronetcy, she immediately determines to turn the tables on Sir Harry, and manceuvres so effectually that it is for some time doubtful whether Titus will not be rescued from his fate, and the fair and learned Prudence consigned to the con jugal care of Sir Harry himself. The widow's sister, however, chooses for herself and marries an old flame, on hearing which the politic widow again joins the party o Sir Harry, and Prudence becomes Mrs. Titus Living stone, while Sir Harry weds Julia. The piece never flags ; joke follows joke, and incident follows incident, each more ludicrous than its predecessor, with marvellous rapidity. We never saw David Rees to greater advan tage than in the character of Titus Livingstone. His broad and unctuous humour told excellently, and as he dil not over-act his part, he was consequently all the more humourous. Some of his touches were quite Lisa tonian. It is decidedly the best character he has yet ap peared in. Miss P. Horton, as Prudence, was excessively clever, and elicited roars of laughter by her apt displays of her literary acquirements. Her manner of singing a canzonet, accompanied by herself on the piano, was an excellent quiz upon the usual style of drawing-room singing, and the satire was made the more piquant by Titus falling asleep under the operation. Mrs. Stirling's Mrs. Courtney was an excellent personification of a good-tempered, rattling, shrewd women of the world; and Mrs. Stanley as Mrs. Oldstock, was stateliness itself. Mr. Clark as Pax, a lawyer, appears but in one scene, and does not utter more than a dozen words, but he did the little he had to do so inimitably as to elicit three dis tinct rounds of applause. Altogether the farce is one of the most excellent that has appeared of late, and quite worthy of Kenny. It was announced by David Rees for repetition every evening, amidst the vociferous applause of a crowded house. VICTORIA. A most effective melodrama was produced at this theutrel on Monday night, under the title of Caspar the Doome. It is, in fact, a dramatic version of the well known story of the unfortunate Caspar Hauser, with such alterations and additions as are necessary for the purposes of the stage. For instance, the mystery at tending Caspar's birth is cleared up, by making Mm the child -- of a daughter of a certain high German Noble, hight Count Hermann, the honour of whose house is concerned in the concealment of this evidence of his daughter's shame—hence the im muring of the unfortunate Caspar. On his escape from his dungeon, after going through a variety of adven tures, in the course of which his friend and defender, Schwartz, is shot by Count Hermann, he discovers the secret of his birth, and on being appealed to by Count Hermann, Caspar swears never to name the Count as his persecutor, and never to bring shame on his mother, by revealing the relationship subsisting between them. Caspar has nothing then to live for but love.' He loves Eve (Mrs. Howard) the betrothed of Ernest (Mr. Seaman), a young physician, who has been his guardian and in structor. She tells him she pities, and has the greatest friendship for him, but that she is betrothed to Ernest. A commission arrives from Vienna, to inquire into the story of Caspar. He appears before it, performs his pro mise to Count Hermann and to his mother, and having done so, swallows poison. The piece is of French origin, and therefore, as might have been ex pected, the love-making of Caspar is rather more sentimental and polished then could have been ex pected from a man who had passed the greater part of his life in a dungeon. It was too conventional. The introduction of many of the incidents also tended to dilute, if we may be allowed the expression, the charac ter of Caspar Hauser, down to that of a melodramatic hero. There was, however, sufficient of the original character of that extraordinary being remaining to af ford an actor of talent such opportunities of displaying his powers as seldom occur on the boards of a minor theatre, and it was in the hands of an actor of the highest talent. Mr. E. F. Saville's Caspar Hau ser was a personation of no ordinary character. His expression of admiration and delight, not unmingled with fear, on beholding light and life for the first time on his emerging from his dungeon, was a very fine piece of acting, and in the scene he rushes- at the Count, after the latter has shot Schwartz, he exhibited a wild and savage energy that was perfectly terrific. His panic terror at the lightning in the last scene was most beautifully and naturally given, and throughout the character he exhibited a power, a pathos, and a knowledge of picturesque effect which prove him to be not only a man of first-rate talent, but one who has deeply studied his profession. It is well worth a visit to the Victoria to see Mr. E. F. Saville's Caspar Hauser. The piece was completely successful. The house, as usual, was crowded. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. HUNTING APPOINTMENTS.

DUBLIN, Nov. 22.—The simultaneous collection of the O'Connell tribute in Dublin took place yesterday, and the result shows that there has been a very considerable augmentation as compared with last year. In 1840 the amount was 1,4381., and this year it is 2,006/., showing an increase in Dublin alone of 5681. The result might have been very different if the Times had taken to praising Mr. O'Connell, or even if it had remained silent respecting himself and his tribute. Sir Robert Peel himself might take a useful lesson from the facts I have mentioned. POST-OFFICE REVENUE IN IRELAND. The following letter from Mr. F. Murphy, member for Cork City, to the Secretary of the Committee of Mer chants, announces the refusal of the Postmaster-General to accelerate the rate of travelling of the Dublin and Cork mail, one of the reasons assigned being the great and continuing decline of the Post-office revenue in this country : " Temple, Nov. 17, 1841. " Dear Sir—l have had another interview with Lord Lowther, and I regret to say my mission has proved un successful. Mr. Purcell has risen in his demands, and whereas he would have been contented last year to make the proposed acceleration for a sum of 5001. he now re quires what is equivalent to 9001. The Treasury refuse to give this sum, and they allege among other reasons, that the returns of the Irish Post-office, during the last year exhibited a deficiency of 30,0001., which had to be made good from the department of England ; and this year presents every prospect of a still greater decrease. " If the citizens of Cork think there is any other quarter to which I can apply in order to accomplish their object, I shall be most happy to obey their com mands. I am, dear sir, your faithful servant, " George Atkins, Esq. F. S. MURPHY:# EXECUTION FOR THE MURDER OF MR. POWELL.

The wretched man said to the people that he was innocent of the murder of Mr. Powell, that he was seven miles off when the murder took place ; he forgave his prose cutors, his judge, and his jury, and died protesting his innocence. After having delivered these few words he seemed to be suffering intense mental agony, and was moving from side to side, not knowing what he did. He sunk down before the fall of the drop, in the centre of which he was placed by the executioner. In a few mo ments the bolt was drawn, and the wretched man ceased to breathe." 'TIE WEATHER—GREAT DISTRESS. The weather this week has been very severe. Snow has fallen in considerable quantities. The mountains in the neighbourhood of Dublin are covered with snow, and the cold is very severe. From all parts of the country we learn that the winter has set in with great severity, and several of the mails have been detained past time, owing to the heaviness of the roads, which, in some places, have been blocked up with snow-drift. In Ireland there is a very general, and, we fear, un fortunately, a too-well founded apprehension, that in ___ some parts of the country a famine . Will exist, owing to the lateness of the harvest and the premature setting in of the severe weather. A gentleman who arrived in Dublin the other day assured us that not one-half of the potato crop, on which the poor people mainly rely for subsistence, would in some parts be saved—in fact, that in a great many districts the potato crop saved would not last over February. Such being the case it is lamentable to contemplate the consequences. The sufferings the poor will be forced to endure—sufferings, alas ! with which they are al ready too familiar—ought to engage the attention of the Government, and some means adopted to alleviate them. —Dublin Monitor. THE POTATO CROP. On Sunday night last the weather assumed all the severity and harshness of mid-winter. A great quan tity of snow has since fallen in all parts of the coun try from which we have heard, and there has been smart frosts at intervals. This change in the weather, occurring at a much earlier period than usual, has come upon the farmers by surprise. This is the season for potato digging, which must, of course, be more or less impeded by the state of the ground, and the sowing of wheat must also be prevented.—Dublin Even ing Post. We had a heavy fall of snow last night, which was followed by an intense frost, rendering the streets and roads almost untravelable. We do not remember symp toms of winter to set in at so early a period for many years."—Cork Reporter of Thursday. " The weather, since our last, has been almost unex ampled in severity for the season. One of the heaviest falls of snow we have remembered for a long period oc curred on Wednesday. The Dublin, Cork, Kerry, and Waterford coaches and cars have been many hours be hind time—in some cases five and six. The Dublin mail, due at half-past nine o'clock this morning, did not reach until twenty-five minutes to two o'clock."—Limerick Re porter of yesterday. - " "KiLcuLLEN.—I regret to say - that, the poor man's harvest (potatoes) is not only a poor crop, but great quantities are yet to be dug out in this neighbourhood." —Leinster Express. Doctor Murray has forwarded through Sir John Power, Bart., trustee, his usual subscription of 10/. to the O'Connell Compensation Fund for the present year. James Power, Esq., M.P., has subscribed 10/., his annual contribution to that national measure. A similar sum has been given by "a Resident of Catherine's Parish," Dublin. Fifty pounds has been received by the Secretary, from friends of O'Connell in Edinburgh. We have only room to admit the following additional good news from the provinces. James Delahunty, Esq., writes from Waterford :—The collection for the Na tional Fund here to-day, amounts to between 3001. and 4001. exceeding last year's products. Waterford will ever be true to the man who has rescued the people of Ireland from " thraldom and slavery." At Clonmel about 2001. has been contributed, as per letter from Charles Bianconi, Esq. From Bel fast, the Treasurer, Hugh Magill, Esq., announces that 170/. will be realised. Enniscorthy produces, we be lieve, 80/. or 901., as notified by Patrick White, Esq., treasurer. Thurles, too, exceeds last year, and will pro duce a similar amount to the foregoing—so writes Martin Quinlan, Esq., treasurer. William O'Donnell, Esq., an nounces that Carrick-on-Suir has, at this early stage, furnished near 80L—and the consort district of Carrick beg and Newtown will, on the 28th, discharge its duty with like liberality. We learn from Patrick Dowdall, Esq., that Newry, has, under the auspices of the vene rated Right Rev. Doctor Blake, commenced the work with eminent success. This is also stated as regards the purely patriotic union of Kilsaran, county of Louth, by the highly respected pastor, Rev. Thomas Loughran— and that of Ferns and Kilbride, county of Wexford, by the excellent Catholic Rector, Rev. James Roche. Thus the work goes bravely on at all points ; and of this new proofs will be given day after day in the most substantial form from the parishes of every county, diocese, and province of the kingdom.—Dublin Paper. EMIGRATION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sift—Seeing that a great movement is in embryo to seduce an immense troop of our suffering countrymen out to the inhospitable shores of Australia, in order that the cry of distress may be shipped away out of our hearing, I cannot but rejoice to find an able, influential, and ster ling advocate like yourself coming before the world, and lifting up his voice against the dastardly contrivance, in sufferable deception, and reckless project of our enlight ened governors, who are busy to bring about this false and extravagant expedient. The money-makers, land jobbers, ship-owners, emigration-agents, and emigration puffers have had it quite too long their own way, and it is full time that we should be shown the other side of the picture. Hundreds of families who were doing well in England have been induced, by the lying . advertisements of such parties, to give up their all, and sink themselves down in the illusive enterprise of emigration. Thousands, I can assert, are now pining away in our Australian pro vinces, without work, subsistence , or ho p e, w ho , had they rwted pays ) to work to get stayed at home, and had comm on libert y b een granted them for the play of their industry, bwouldeen shpaavree dbeen r living in their native coun tr y , surrounded w ith comforts. n l o wa money ysaft has rd Works have been printed and lar g el y e circulated this ns purpose: threopsueb(lbiceefaeuesliengit a ; purchasers to the land sales ; but any attempt that has been made to interrup t, or cause a pause for considera tion, has always, by well-managedr th me e an o t a b r e i e ty n p y u o t u d h o w a l u e . Hence I am glad and grateful for s h ow n to arrest the current of rapine and destruction now in operation. Few, it is true, have make people ac quainted with the prospects awaiting ve spoken ill o f th e - c olonies ; but some have attempted 0 pamphlet published by S m ith and Elde r them. I read a who resided ten years i n th e colonies e o r f , b A y o a s t il r a l Mr Dixon, a. lie speaks very differently about an adventure to Australia to what those do who live in London, and have an inte rest in sending their fellow -creatures into exile and are po verty. But such wor k s as this put aside. They must not be br oug h t i nto light; no, no, it would never answer. But I trust it will answer you to persevere, and write dow n a ll false, wicked, tions.

The Musical Society of the Casino at Munich gave its first winter concert on the 6th ult., which was honoured by the presence of the King and Queen of Bavaria and their family, the Queen of Prussia, the Grand Duchess of I3aden, the court, and a great number of distinguished functionaries. The orchestra was composed of two hundred performers, under the direction of AL Lachner, chapel master to the King. The first part of the concert was opened by the Symphonic Heroique of Beethoven, and the second part by the overture to King Lear of M. Berlioz. Mlle. Hetzchek, a young Polish cantatrice, with a voice not less remarkable for its great extent than for its volume and power, sung with great effect: the grand air from La Medee of Cherubim ; and M. Artot, the celebrated violinist from Paris, executed a concerto with variations of his own composition, which was received with loud applause. In the interval between the parts of the concert the King approached the orchestra, and en tered into conversation with M. Lachner, M. Artot, and several other of the artistes. t BOROUGH OF SOUTHWARK. MEETING TO CONGRATULATE THE ICIIIEEN ON THE, BIRTH OF AN HEIR APPARENT. A public meeting of the inhabitants of the Borough of Southwark was held yesterday, at the Town-hall;,to cen- , gratulate her Majesty on the birth of an heir apparent to the Throne. The requisition to the High Bailiff to con vene the meeting was signed by upwards of 200 of the most influential inhabitants of the borough. Amongst the gentlemen present we observed Alderman Hum. phery, M.P., Benjamin Wood, Esq„ np., Mr. Apsley Pellatt, Arthur Barclay, Esq., William Wilson, Esq., Emanuel Cooper, Esq., J. Q. Harris, Esq., M.P., - Perkins, Esq., - Curling, Esq., &c. The chair was taken byJohn Holmes, Esq., the High Bailiff. . . . The requisition convening the meeting was then read.. The HIGH BAILIFF then addressed the meeting, and after alluding to the unexampled height of greatness and of glory which this country attained to under the reign of Queen Elizabeth, and also to the distinguishing character istic of the reign of Queen Anne, which had been termed the " Augustan age of England," he observed that it had been reserved for the present times to produce a youth ful Sovereign who combined in her own character all the virtues of the woman and all the excellences of the Queen ; whose conduct, whether we regarded her as a daughter, a wife, a mother, or the ruler of this great empire, had shone with untarnished lustre, and orr which the finger of envy and calumny had been unable to fix a stain.—(Loud cheers.) Mr. PERKINS moved the firstresolution, expressive of thanks to Almighty God, for the sa f e delivery of her Majesty. Mr. APSLEY PELLATT seconded the motion. It was then agreed to. A resolution to the effect that an Address of Congra tulation on the birth of a Prince, heir to the Throne of Britain, be presented to her Majesty, was also carried. Mr. JOHN MEYNARD moved as an amendment that the following addition to be Made to the address :—" At the same time, we cannot but acquaint your Majesty that thousands of virtuous and modest women, your Ma jesty's subjects, are passing the like natural extremities upon beds of straw, without even a pillow whereon to lay their heads—that starvation and misery are pervad ing the whole length and breadth of the land, and we attribute this state of things to class legislation, and therefore pray your Majesty to instruct your Ministers tO pass a law that every male twenty-one years of age, untainted with crime, may have a vote in the election of representatives in the Commons House of Parliament." There must be some great cause for all this misery, and they had a right to approach the throne, and respectfully represent to her Majesty the distressed state of the ma jority of her loyal subjects.—(Hear, hear.) To read them even was enough to make their blood run cold in their veins, and what must itbe to endure them?—(Hear.) In his humble opinion the cause of all this misery was the class legislation of the country.—(Hear, hear.) Mr. Meynard then alluded to the conduct and enormous sala ries of the clergy of the Established Church. Mr. ARTHUR BARCLAY rose to order. lie was not insensible of the distress pervading the kingdom, nor of the sufferings of his fellow-countrymen.—(Cries of " Sit down," " Chair," " Order," &c.) Amidst great confusion, Mr. W. WILSON rose to order ; the remarks of Mr.. Meynard were quite appropriate to the subject.— (Cheers.) If they admitted the amendment they must also listen to the reasons urged in support of it.—(Cheers.) Mr. MEYNARD continued. Me denied that he was heard by courtesy, and if he had been out of order the High Bailiff would have told him so, which he had not yet done.—(Cheers.) The statements he had made were, no doubt, painful to the ears of Mr. Barclay wad his friends, but how much more painful must they bf, to him (Mr. Meynard), who saw so much more of the ex treme distress which his fellow-men were labouring under ?—(Cheers.) Was there anything wrong in. mak ing it known to their beloved Queen ? Did Queen. Anne or Queen Elizabeth ever object to their subjects coming to them under such circumstances ? He felt satisfied that Queen Victoria would also listen to their representation. Dr. BEDFORD said that "out of the fulness of the heart the mouth would Teak." Arthur Barclay and his friends should be taught to feel the necessity of the change for which they prayed in the amendment. It was a great privilege to approach the throne, and they could not use it better than by exhibiting to her Majesty a true picture of the suffering and misery in which the country was involved. He cordially seconded the amend ment.—(Cheers.) Mr. liiLLocx saw no reason for the interruption of Mr. Barclay. The working men only wanted to get a living, which vould benefit that gentleman, for they would then be able to drink a little more of his beer.— (Cheers.) For twenty years he had been a rate-payer in the borough. but now, in spite of his utmost efforts, he was coming to the state of a pauper. He could now only get two day's work in the week, and he had a whole• family of children, and had not wherewithal to get thenn* a dinner.—(Hear, hear.) He was no Chartist, but ' Corn-law repealer ; and the reason of that was, that as be passed along the streets he observed the tradesmen at their doors, with their hands in their pockets, and nothing to do. They need not go to Marylebone, or any where else, for scenes of destitution ; for he could take Mr. Barclay to places only a few yards distant from his, own brewery, and show him instances equally startling. —(Hear, hear.) He trusted they would let the amend ment pass for the benefit of the working classes. Thy poor had no objection to let them (the Tories) live ; but it was right that they should also let others live. Mr. BLACKMORE (a working-man) said that it was impossible for fathers of starving families to stand by in silence. He was astonished that the conduct of gentle men present should endeavour to stifle the cries of the poor. Let them turn their eyes to the state of the country, - and-they would at once see that the attempt was vain. —(Loud cheers.) As a working man, he would declare that all sustenance wte: banished from their dwellings.—(Hear, hear.) It was time to arouse them selves, and they would lie dormant no longer.—(Tre mendous cheers.) They would insist upon their rulers making better laws, laws which would permit the work ing classes to exist; and he called upon the two Honour able Members of the House of Commons present to state to her Majesty what they then heard, that she might take measures for the mitigation of their sufferings; and their fervent prayer should be that her Majesty might long be spared to the nation, and that future generations might call her blessed.—(Cheers.) The amendment was then put trom fthe chair, and. as the show of hands being taken, The HIGH BAILIFF said, I am of opinion that l th e amendment is carried. This announcement was received with tremendous cheering and waving of hats in the body of the hall. When the applause had somewhat subsided, Mr. DIEYNARD moved that the address be presented to her Majesty by the High Bailiff, John Holmes, Esq., Benjamin Wood, Esq., M.P., Alderman Humphery, Esq„ M.P., Dr. Bedford, and William Wilson, Esq. The resolution, being seconded, was agreed to unwni.. mously. Alderman HUMMER; M.P., moved a vote of thr.nks to the High Bailiff. BENJAMIN WooD, Esq., M.P., seconded the niotion, and, in doing so, expressed his hope that his healt'it would be so far restored by next session that he should, be able to attend to his duty in Parliament.—(Cheers.) The vote of thanks was carried by acclamatir,n, and the meeting separated. CORN LAWS. MEETING AT ST. MARGARET'S AND ST.

Mr. HARRIS rose to propose the first resolution, that a branch Anti-Corn -law Association be immediately formed auxiliary to the Metropolitan Anti-Corn-law Association, for the purpose of forwarding the cause of free trade by petitioning Parliament, and other means that might be deemed advisible. Mr. Hoc° seconded the resolution. Before it was put, Mr. BUBB said, he thought their first object was to obtain the Charter. The Corn-law people were trying to put dow n th e Ch artists, by throwing obstacles in the way, and preventing their holding public meetings. A short conversation ensued on this subject, and the resolution was put and carried. :-. Mr. H ATTERSLEY propose d the following resolution —" P i) That a Com m itt ee b e now appo i nted, w i th - we r to add to their numb e r, f or th e purpose of carrying otn t the foregoing resolution • that Mr. Bung be reqn . es ad to act as Secretary ; and that the meeting do a dj ourn to Thursday week next."

Wickham, of the Parent Association, Mr. Huggett, and other gentlemen, relative to . ;he prospects a the As sociation. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting separated at ten o'clock. THE CORN-LAWS AND THE DIS- SENTER S. The Rev. Mr. Wells, the minister of the Surrey Ta bernacle in the Borough-road, and the congregafcion of the various religious denominations to the Dissenters which requires only to be kno wn to be connected with that place of worship, has set an exan4le in this countr y, • adopted, that of making a collection after the mornin g 0. service of Sunday, to promote the repeal of thead ever , n t , . Corn-laws. The above place of worship, 'Which is of considerable size, is capable of containin g a b out 1,200 persons, and upon unday evening there cou ld not have been less than 1 , 000 present. Uponit being announced that the c o ll ection was finished, the Rev.

He thought the best and most satisfactory manner to arrive at that opinion would be by a show of. hands, and therefore he would r equest all th ose w h o . Wer es in favour of a repeal of the Corn-laws , and approved of the course which he had adopted, to hold up their ?bands. A forest of hands responded to this appeal. The Rev.
