This charming retreat will. be laid out with a view to its becoming the residence of fami lies of the highest rank. Its noble roads, groves, and prome nades, esplanade on the east bank of Cowes Harbour, and pleasure grounds of forty acres in the European and Oriental styles, adorned with fountains, statues, seats, and bowers, will complete a scene of delicious seclusion and surpassing loveli ness, protected by lodge-gates and kwpers against offensive intrusion. The price of a plot 100 ft. frontage by, 300 ft. in depth, opening into the public gardens, will be only 3001., or four plots for 1,0001.

THE PIC NIC PAPERS, BY VARIOUS HANDS, EDITED BY C. DICKENS, ESQ. (Boz), ILLUSTRATED BY G. CRUIKSIIANK, &c.—" This long-looked for work," observes the Court Journal, " has peculiar claims on pub lic attention. Whatever may be the future literary achievements of the great and admirable genius whose name it bears, nothing can deprive The Pic Nic Papers' of the distinction of being the first substantive work to which that name was attached on its issue to the world ; all Mr. Dickens's other productions having appeared periodically, in brief detached portions. The infinite variety and sterling merit of these singularly entertain ing volumes, aided by their n umerous an d ca pit a l illus trations by George Cruikshank, &c., ought at once to command a place for them beside the most popular Works of the day?' TOM BOWLING, A TALE Or THE SEA, BY CAPT. F. CHA3IIER.—" Tom Bowling," says the Sunday Times,"istt novel of a very superior character. The stream of events flows on continuously.. The imagination is hurried over half the world—rendered familiar in calm and storm, with the ocean—with the incidents and perils of shipwreck—with the storming of towns, and the fierce and fiery struggles of naval engagements. Captain Bowling is the beau ideal of .a British sailor, and as he grows up, as it were, under the eye of the reader, put ting forth one by one his excellent qualities, attracting towards himself the re g ard of his superiors, .the friend ship of his equals, and the admiration of all those be neath him, his character alone is sufficient to communi cate a powerful interest to the novel. In the course of the narrative we catch frequent glimpses of three very extraordinary men—Nelson, Collingwood, and Jervis, whose approbation is made to fall like a bright stream of sunshine on the heroic enterprises of Tom Bowling. Their sentiments, and the lofty structure of their cha racter, are represented truly, and shed an historical air over the narrative, which greatly heightens its interest." We are glad to hear that the Crown has granted a pension. of 1001. a year to the widow of Mr. James, the naval historian. The Lords of the Admiralty, particu larly Sir Charles Adam, strongly reenrnmend(4l Mrs. James's memorial to the Treasury. _LONDON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 19, 1811. ANTI-CORN-LAW CONFERENCE. Mem - 11mM .Atie.esT 18. The following is an account of the proceedings of Tuesday con. tinned from The Sun of yesterd a y. Mr. Canoes, M.P., on being introd uce d sa id, he nevertadressed an assemblage of such vast immrtance, and he came before them as the representative of the Anti-C orn -l aw League, to explain the grounds upon which that body ad v o ca t e d th e Repeal cf the Corn ' and Provision-laws, and to give evidence in the cause, and that was to consist of facts.— (Cheers.) When about two years ago the members of the longue assembled at Manchester to take the effect of the Corn-laws into consideration, they decided, on the unalter. able principles of truth and justice, that no tax upon the food of the people was just.—(Hear, hear.) There were many there well acquainted with the working of those laws, but there were others to whom a general view of the arguments by which they had 'arrived at that conclusion might not be unacceptable.—(Hea r. ) It was calculated that on an average every family throughout the tmd consumed an equal quantity of bread. If there was any difference, the poorer the family the greater was the con • Gumption.—(Hear, hear.) From the evidence brought before the Hand•loom Committee, it appeared that the class of working men who earned on the average l Os. a week, spent ss. upon bread. It might be computed that at least the broad-tax raised the price of bread forty per cent., and at that rate the amount of the tax upon bread laid by those families was 2s. out of the ss. That was the weekly tax upon the bread of the families of the labour. ing commtinits . The better-paid mechanics, who earned, on an average, 20s. a week, spent no more upon bread than the humblest daises. Their proportion of the tax was, therefjrc, much less In L proportion to their income. Those families who earned 2/. a week spent the same amount on bread, and their hread.tax was only about 5 per cent. To go higher still, to the middle classes of. society, with incomes of 51. a week, they would pay about 2 per cent. ; but if they want to the highest of all, the noble man or the " fur the amount of tax paid by then in proportion to their inComes, they must go to the smallest coin used in the count ry,—;llear, bean) Thus the Duke, with his 200,000 i. a year, paid not a thousandth part of Lis income.

Under no Government in the world was the likes to he found. Even in Egypt, and that was the worst of all, there VAS no bread-tax.---(Hear, hear.) No Continental despot had dared to do it, and neither would it have been done in England, if it was understood by the people.—(Loud cheers.) These, and such as theso, were the reasons which gave rise to the forma tion of the National Anti.Corn.law League.—(Great cheering.) The fallacy that a repeal of the Corn-laws would leaver wages, had been answered and exploded a thousand times, but it was still in. dustriously propagates. It was a fundainental error ; and a more mistaken and monstrous idea was never entertained.—(Cheers.) They put a check upon industry at home ; they refused a beneti. cial interchange of commodities with foreign nations; and shut out our commerce under the prctenceof keeping up the wages of the poor.

Close upon the borders of that shire a young nobleman had recently de. dared that the Legislature must keep up the price of corn to 565. per quarter. The landowner insisted upon passing a law to double the price of food, but would do nothing to raise the price of labour. —(Loud cries of " Hear, hear.") They were told that it would be dangerous to depend upon foreigners, but in his opinion it would be the surest guarantee of peace, and for the per formance of our duty as Christians, by carrying out the_ golden rule, to do unto others as you would be done onto.—(Cheers.) He never travelled in any country but he found that the best of their commodities, and the choicest of their luxuries were going to Eng. hum ; but how was it on the plains of Poland or the prairies of America? Why was not the corn which was.rotting there going to England ? They were told that there was a law to prevent it.— (Hoer, hear.) Was it not a mig lay injustice that not one ounce could be brought to England in exchange for the fruits of the in dustry arid skill of our artisans.---(Hear, hear.) They had heard 'much of the effect of repeal on'the agricultural labourers; he had seen many from the agricultural districts, and if it could be shown that they received as much wages as his unskilled artisans he would give up the qnestion.—(Loud cheers.) If the la. Insurers fly from the country to the towns, did not that prove ' what he had said ?—(Loud cheers.) lint they were toad of the hardship of manufacturing labour, and of the oppression practised by the masters; but why had those who told them so es. tablished agents in Manchester to bring the surplus labourers there ? If they (the manufacturers) were Such fiends as had been represented, what must they be who had established agents in Man. chester to bring their surplus rural population amongst them ? (Tremendous cheering.) And what would they have to answer for by imposing the bread-tax upon them into the bargain, which took from them one-third of all they earned ?-;-(Renewed cheering.) If a tax was necessary to secure the cultivation of the land, let it be paid directly, and not taken from the poor' by such underhand methods. After several witty exposures of the fear, so often ex. pressed, of the land being thrown out of cultivation by a repeal of the Corn-laws, the Honourable Member sat dews amidst reiterated cheering. Several ministers from the manufacturing districts then de, tailed state...to of—ih. est*.tv , b444c,sdnii. under their personal observation, the sub once cf : which, It is un derstood, will be immediately prepared felfru biliati°n • The Conference broke up at a late hour. This morning (Wednesday) the Conference was, if possible, more numerous:y at ended than on the precedine day, and the space aloi ted to the public was thronged by persons who seemed to take a deep intere.t in the proceedings, The chair was taken by the Rev. Mr. Chaplin, the Chairman of the day, who expressed his pleasure in tilling the office to which he was appointed, and de clared his conviction of the justice and humanity of the cause in kind, 11r. to Cc e ß r T g l a s s , e a it, gentleman suciiaca f u r s o e m a t s he th U is. nited which the Conference was engaged. dressed the meeting. He felt it a privilege, as a loier of man. lie felt it a privilege, because his country was interested in the quest fon. States, then ad. great advantage that would result to both countries from a flee trade in Corn. In America thdir gamer: were full to t,) As dilate ate patriot, on also, t e •It Was unnecessary overflowing, and all they wanted was a mart for their superabund ant food. The Americans came with their food to England, and the starving mechanics stood on the shore with their manufactures . in their hands, anxious to exchange them fur food, but a monstrous law interposed and prohibited the useful and necessary barter. The wheat.growing district of the United States contains 176,000,000 of acres. Here was field to supply the wants of England ! If the Americans were allowed, they would furnish toed for the whole British people. It might, however, be said, that the cost of the transmission front the United States would enhance the price so much, that the people of this country . would be unable to get it at a reaionable priee. That was not the case. American Sour might be sold in the English. market at 475.' a quarter. The advocates of ' the Corn.law said it would be necessary to reduce wages ifs order to allow of manufactures being sold cheaply. That was a mistake. The Americans did not want English goods cheaper. All they desired was that they should be at liberty to exchange their fmd for our Illanufactures ; and, if that were allowed, the warehouses of Manchester would speedily be cleared out at the present prices The restrictive policy of Eng.. land created a similar spirit in America, and the people of the latter country felt that restriction was a game which two amid play at. It was a complete fallacy to allege That high wages ac companied high-priced food. In America, the reverse of this pro_ position was demonstrated. There a mechanic earned 45. 6d. a flay, and the price of wheat was only 275. a quarter. They could get beef, bacon, and pork for three-halfpence a pound ; and thus a man cowid obtain a week or a fortnight's food for a single day's labour. It ought not to be lost sight of, that the abolition of the bread-tax in England would have an important bearing on the question of the extiaction of slavery in the United States. At present England took double the quantity of produce from the slave states of America that she did from the free labour states, be cause the latter happened to be the wheat producing district, and the English Corn-law prevented the introduction of their staple produce into this country. The Rev. Dr. IT/U(3111.N came forward to move this resolution " That this Conference, drawn together from various parts of the United Kingdom, by a general conviction of the existence of long cominued and still increasing distress affecting the community at' large, and tient-nig with peculiar severity on the industrious classes, tinds this conviction deeply confirmed by various statements and documentary evidence now laid before them, which clearly prove that vast numbers are incapable of obtaining by their labour a suffi ciency of the common necessaries of life for the support of them. selves and their families." :,, The Rev. Mr. ROBERTSON seconded the resolution In a brief but energetic address. The Rev. Mr. HINDLET stated some facts which exhibited a melancholy picture of the 'distressed Gondition of the population in the neighbourhood of Wigan. Within the compass of three miles round Wigan there were no less than 3,000 persons but of cm; ployment. Some years ago, when Mr. Macaulay was speaking in the House of Cummons, some one asked him what he proposed to do with trade. Hit reply was, " Let it alone." There was wis. dom in that remark, and happy would it be for this country if it were acted on. The resolution was then unanimously adopted. The Rev. Mr. PARSONS had ascertained from personal inquiries that the operatives in his neighbourhood (Hebley in Gloucester. shire) received at present only half the wages they obtained before the Corn.law came into baneful operation, and yet they could ob. tain only half work. It had frequently occurred to him to know that numbers of his congregation absented themselves from Sat, bath worship because they had not a penny to purchase soap wherewith to wash themselves. Last winter ten bests were taken to the pawnbrokers to obtain the means of purchasing food. Houses were untenanted, and looms standing still in all directions. At the present moment, in the village of King's Langley, only sixty-nine looms were employed out of 18'2. 'The Rev. Gentleman concluded by animadverting on the good fortune of the people of England, in having for their sovereign a woman and a mother, who sympathised with their wants. This allusion produced a burst of enthusiasm from the Conference, in which the lay spectators heartily joined. He then moved the fol lowing resolution : inly 9 I I 16 " That in the judgment of this Conference, the prevailing dis tress painfully tends to arrest the progress of education—to pre vent the exercise of domestic and social affection—to induce reck less and immoral habits—to prevent attendance on religious wor. ship, and to harden the heart against religious impressions." The Rev. Mr. BuRY, of Leicester, said he had attended the Con ference at the express request of his congregation, every member of which was in favour of the free trade propositions of the Govern ment, which they approved •of as leading to the total abolition of all restrictions in the market for food. He could scarcely listen with patience to the absurd arguments which were urged in defence of the corn monopoly. The distress existing at Leicester at the present moment exceeded and thing of the kind within reeollec. tion, and from being one of the most thriving towns in the king dom, it was rapidly sinking into the condition of the most wretched. A respectable manufacturer had informed him,that unskilled work men in Leicester are unable to earn more than 6s. or 7s. per week, after working fourteen hours a day; whilst skilful workmen cannot obtain more than 95., 10s., or 1 Is, per week. From the census recently taken, it appears that there are 1,100 houses in the town unoccupied. Allowing five persons to each house, here were untenanted dwellings sufficient for the accommodation of one. fifth of the population of Leicester A fearful indication of the decline of social prosperity. The nephew of an influential hosier, who recently returned from Saxony, declared that he had seen in one district of that kingdom more stocking frames than were to be found in Leicester at the preient moment. 1 gentleman said that be fornletty carried on a lucrative business with Belgium, " but," added he, that branch of trade is • now lost to us, and, d fear tor ever !" Another gentleman showed him some gloves made in Germany, imported into London, after paying 20 per cent, duty, sent down to Leicester, and sold there for 2.. 83. per dozen. They could not be made in England for the mot.ey, allowing nuthing for the profit of the manufacturer and retailer. He concluded by seconding the resolution. The resolution was then unanimously agreed to ; after which the meeting adjourned till four o'clock. At four o'clock the Conference re-assembled, and the Rev. Mr. Spencer addressed the audience in an admirable speech. He was followed by several other clergymen. The Earl of Mete, being introduced by the Chairman, ad. dressed the Conference at the close of the proceedings on Tuesday afternoon. We regret we cannot find room for his speech, but the following remark deserves notice:—l can only add (said his Lord. ship) from my own experience in agriculture, from my own know ledge, and what I can glean from those whose opinions I consider the best, that so fat from an alteration in the present Corn.laws tending in any way to throw land out of cultivation, the more pro. bable result will be to bring more land into cultivation, and that cultivation, too, of a higher character.—(Hear.) MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FR07 , 1 THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. TIMES.—That the supposed hews from China commented on yesterday has been traced to Galignanrs Messenger, has not given -it in the City any additional claim to belief. All the conclusion drawn from it is, that the concoctors of the intelligence, as they are still suspected to be, for interested purposes, have thought it a more safe mode of proceeding in the first instance to resort to Paris, where there are fewer means of detecting such impositions than in London ; besides which it is well known that the French Journals are much less scrupulous in the admission of matters of fact without due inquiry, than the Journals of this coun try. The parties cmcerneci would also be aware that though news is seldom adopted in London when it originates there, without inquiry, the mass of intelligence . from France is seldom sifted, because in general little time is afforded fur the purpose, and it must be adopted; for theariost•psrt, on the re. sponsibility with which it originated. All the details of this Slip. posed -letter from Masao arc gs Vague as possibly-, and possess, 'other circunistanoss &parr, no internal evidence of authenticity. That a piece of news affecting, as this does, mitliotis of property in teas and other articles of China and East India produce, should have reached one party only, and also have lain quietly dormant in Paris for a fortnight at least, after all the other letters b• ought by the last overland mail had been delivered, is in itself utterly incre dible, and certainly the quarter through which it comes at last is mit calculated to create for it any validity which it does not 113- tuiillly posses. No well-infot med person in the City attaches the I ca „! credit to it. The Stocks have, fluctuated but very little to-day. The weather, and the consequent improvement in the FfinoeresitganteEoxfethtgeg, Jed many to suppose, and not unreasonably, general would have improved ; the that the aspect of the in indication of such a state or thrb:l.gs was but slight, anti any advance was in all probability checked by tt,e further delivery of stock to. day by leading Brokers, on account of former sales, which kept mend in demand at the rate of four per cent,' This latter circum. stance was, no doubt, the cause of the lower pi.ice of Exchequer Bills. " • -• CHRONlCLE.—Excitement in the City, and particularly in the tea market, continues on the subject of the news front China, Wm municated in a second edition of the Chronicle of yesterday, aim repeated to-day also in a third edition, containing our . extraordinary express from Paris. The latter mentions that the same intelligence had appeared in the Semaphore of Marseilles, received that day in Paris, and similar intelligence was given to.day in a second edition of other m9rning papers, with this addition, that on the loth of April, seveial cargoes of British rods had been seized by the Chinese police, in breach of the convention with Captain Elliot. The opening prices for teas this morning were flat, at a decline on those of yesterday, several purchases of Company's Congous having been made at 2s. 7:d. per lb. ; but on the appearance of the extra. ordinary express from Paris, of yesterday's date, above.mentioned, the market became firm, and sr ddenly advanced to 2s. S:d. The prevaiimg- belief to.day Is that the intelligence in question from China is not unfounded. COWIc.S, ISLE OF WIGHT. (PROM OUR OWN CORRESrONDENT. ROYAL YACHT SQUADRON INTELLIGENCE.

The Aurora 39 tons The Cynthia The Phoebe 33 tons were started at eleven o'clock, the two former getting away first, some say before the signal was given, but they certainly had a trifling a.!vantage ; they proceeded to the eastward with a tine breeze after them, followed by a hundred sail and a thousand eyes.

MaxcirEsrErt.—There was a better demand for Yarn yesterday than fur some time past, and a fair amount of business was done, though without the slightest advance upon the low rates which previously prevailed. The Goods Market was worse than this ; . . the demand was very limited, and no sales could be made except at perfcct!y ruinous prices. Indeed it has beta obvious, for anise days past, that large stocks of goods were being sacrificed for such prices as the manufacturers could obtain, without relerence to their cost ; and, until those stocks are cleared off, there can be no legitimate demand. _ _ . ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, At:a. 16.—To.day, being the wakes, the business done has been more limited than that of the preceding week ; but there has been no change in prices. In wool there is no changc to report since the last market. HUDDCRSFIELD MARKET, AUG. .17.—This was much the same sort of market day as last week. The demand for low and middle. priced woollens still continues; but the quantity brought to the market is pot great, as goods are mostly made to ordt r ; conse. quently, better prices are realiz2cl in some sorts. Prices ate firm in wools; and business in the warehouses is a little better, and will improve with the fair weather. CORN AVERAGBK.

The Ministerial journals of Wednesday affirm that the new census is a mere pretext of the anarchists of the south of France for covering► their revolutionary designs. Troops are everywhere in motion marching towards the south, where as yet the greatest excitement prevails. A letter from Corfu of the 11 announces that Admiral Om miney had received official intelligence of the'entire pacification of Candia, and that this happy result *as due to the interven vention and united exertions of the officers of the British and French naval stations off the Island. At the audience given by the Sultan to Said Bey, his High ness informed the Egyetian Envoy that he consented to reduce tie tribute. A letter from 'Vienna, of the 10th, states that the Duke of Bourdeaux is rapidly recovering. When restored to health, he will enter ihe Austrian service as a cadet in the Emperor's Reeitnent of Light Horse. The French squadron in the Levant is to consist of two ships of the line, four frigates, two smaller vessels, and a steamer. Half of Admiral Hugon's squadron is to winter at Toulon, and the other half of the Hyeres Islands. The Temps states that' the Sultan has ordered the English to evacuate Syria. but they still keep possession of Beyrout. We believe England has not above forty or fifty men in Syria. NVith such a iOICf it is rather amusing to hear grave doubts expressed respecting our intentions. The Commerce cabs upon the French Government to state whether the secret article of the Treaty of December, 1831, exists whi h stipteat,s that in the event of a war between France and the Great Powers the fortresses of Belgium would be occupied with foreign troops. The question appears to us etVery little consequence.- Tielties which have for their basis a state of war are very-nerely . observed. The King and Queen of the Belgians will remain till the end of September at. Ostend. From Madrid our advices are of the 11th inst. Espartero had adopted the law authorising the raising of a 10.. n of 60 millions of reals. Five priests at Daroca, who refused to recognise the Arch bishop appointed by Ike Regent, were arrested and cast into poison. We like not this way of dealing with the priests. 't h v ought to have to opportunity allowed them of working on the popular sympathies by exhibiting themselves as Martyrs. The true way is to- deprive them of their livings, and put better subjects in their places. Just published, priee-2s. 6d., A NEW MODE of CURE, by OPERA TION, for.

The unavoidable consequence of this is, that we meet a.very considerable proportion of indiffer.nt, useless, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our see with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled "Manhood;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim the character of experienced and jud'cious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough tatnfiderice in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England.

Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the few books now coming befor the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional, at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it "invalu able.—Magnet. The perusal of Messrs. Curtis's book entitled " Manhood," has really astonished us by developing a series of maladies, the never-failing consequence of the vicious habit of which it treats. The clear connexion pointed out between the assigned cause and the effects is perceptible to every capacity; We strongly recornmend• the work.,-Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, some, nay most of them, of a very questionable tendency, made us ex tremely reluctant to take up another. Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita tion in haying that we arise from its perusal instructed and edified. The clear exposition if the source of many of those tdlizn by aseswhich proves so fatal to youth, an d w hi c h are se t she every-day observer as the result of common causes, such as exposure to co ld, su dd en v i c i ss i tu d es of temp o e u . rature, hereditary taint, &c., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. Curtis have. Oman that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Consumptien, Epilepsy, &c., hitherto the opplobria of meth. tine, may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as other clasS of affections, We do not think we go too far in ssying that society is deeply indebted to the authors for producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly mots! a book —Censervative Journal. We recommend the work entitled " Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as well as physical advantages sure to - result from such perusal, will be most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in need of them.—Stat • Man. Messrs.

The System adopted by this Corporation combines the Prin ciple of Mutual Assurance with - the security of a large Sub scribed Capital and the suppot t of an influential body of Pro prietors. In order to meet the views of all classes of Insurers, poli cies are likewise granted on the following 'plan, viz .:— When an insurance is for the whole term of life, one- half of the premium is only required to be paid for the first five, years, the °flur half may remain unpaid, subject to the charm of interest of 5 per cent. per annum, to be deducted at death, or may be paid off, at the option of the parties. Tables have also been calculated, making the sum insured payable on the party at taining the age of Sixty, or at Death, if it occur sooner. • The Premiums are moderately rated at all ages, and are so modified by ascending and descending scales and otherwise, as to suit the object of every Insurer at the least immed ate out lay, whether to secure a Debt, provide for his Family, or to convert Income into Capital for his own use.

The Times thus refers to the Corn-law question:—" We ire, in the abstract opposed to :he restrictions of the present Corn laws. We consider it dear, in particular, that the present sliding scale has worked injuriously, has given occasion to an extent of fraud which it is humiliating to think of. The very daring and extent of these malpractices have made them suc cessful. Sad as the confession is, we do not believe that the in genuity of statesmen will be able to devise a plan which will effectually baffle the acute and practised speculator : and we are, therefore, sorry to see indications of an intention to retain what we cannot hut believe irremediably inefficient." The Times then goes on to sneer at " that most impudent delusion —the cry of cheap bread for the labourer," thus exhibiting the grossest inconsistency, for what can be its object in opposinn. "the restrictions of the present Corn-laws," except to make bread , heaper; the idea of which it, nevertheless, ridicules as a delusion ! Our Contemporary's logical faculty seems to have deserted him of late. The Post, with more than its wonted effrontery, insists on being better informed of the exact state of her Majesty's health, than even her medical adviser himself, observing:—" Her Majesty is notoriously in as good a state of health as she was in the month of August of last year. ' She takes and enjoys now, as she did.then, her morning walks and her afternoon drives in the neighbourhood of Windsor Castle. When in London she partakes now, as she did then, of the amusements of the capi tal. In the month of August of last year her Majesty proro gued Parliament in peron, and in the following November her Majesty, to the great jey of her subjects, gave birth to the Princess Royal." The Post infers from this that her Majesty is resolved to keep herself "entirely aloof" from Ministers — an absurd remark which we leave the Court Circular to answer. The Chronicle observes, with reference to the recent ap pointment of the Rev. Baptist Noel to be one of the Royal Chaplains—" Were it possible for any doubt to exist on the fact of her Majesty's earnest desire for the untaxing of the people's food, that doubt must be instantly and triumphantly settled by the appointment of the Honourable and Rev. Bap.. ti3t Noel as - one of her Chaplains in Ordinary. This is truly the act of a Christian Sovereign. The religion which suppli cates daily bread for those who earn it, is thus made practically pae and pascel of the law.' No clerical arrangement has ever a it t ,:ded more heartfelt satisfaction than this does, to all who respect religion as involving . human curies together with divine doctrine:. Her Majesty is with the people in treating , the bread-tax rq..^al as a religious queition. She distin guishes the Christian preacher by his assertion of the rights of the poor against the grle.:ling oppressions of class monopoly." ' That this is an appointment is: 1n which the country may de rive the most flattering hopes, an.d that the Tories regard it in this light, is evident from the loud elamour they have already begun to set up against Mr. Noel. Th,"V have opened on him like a pack of fierce wolves, and will do ale they can to run him down, and worry him to death. The Rev. Gentleman may welt be yroud of such tali(' abuse. It is a proof of the high rate at vih'cli the Mowspolistsi!e:timatts his moral infiecnee to ti.e cause of justic e.

Now ihese qualities are very numb the result of what is still denied them—moral and religious et.!uea tion. We do not mean such education as that devised be t.hc Whigs—a political education ; hut one which shall be based on that truth • which was not for an age but fur all time,' and un the cessation of time, is for eternity. The adoption of such a system cannot be far distant from the removal of the resent Administration." A system of national education based ou Tory principles—for this is, of course, what our Con temporary looks forward to—is a system calculated not to en large, but to letter, the mind ; not to encourage a healthy spirit of independence in the national character, but to crush it. Such a system might have suited admirably the days of George the Third; but it is now too late to adopt it. The aristocracy and the priesthood can never again exercise their old influence over the people. The Dublin Evening Post says :—" That Ministers a-e equal to the crisis, in the face of a hostile House of Lords an of a hostile majority of landlords in the .Commons, we believe and the Tory public, A anticipate, will .be .of our opinion before the lapse of a month. Having taken their stand against Monopoly, there can be no doubt at all that its knell is rung. The time—the euthanasia is un certain. It may take a year in dying under the hands of Doctor Peel—it may expire before Christmas. But it is booked. Its doom is sealed. 'the debates on the Address, however, they may terminate, will deal a heavy blow and a great discouragement tothe Monopolists." BIONET—T RADE—CO MIVIEEZ E. The fustian trade still continues to be the most healthy of any branch connected with the manufactures of Manchester. but still not sufficient to enable the manufacturer to realise any ad ditional profit. Most of the calico printers are by no means but.v. "We regret cxceedi , gly," says the Tyne Mercury,•‘to ob serve that almost every trading branch of trade is at present, and Ins been for some months past, labouring under great depression in Newcastle. Unless some amendment takes place it is dreadful to think of the distress that must be felt, as winter approaches, by the working classes, especially as the price of bread seems to be increasing." .11.GRICITZTUItAX.

The Globe severely reprehends the Times for its pro fligate inconsistency of opinion as regards the present Corn-laws. It shows that the Times, while it admits the . Present system to be injurious to the interests of Britain as a commercial country, with characteristic public spirit recommends, that ithfid better be left to work its way, Yather than disturb the quiet , of Sir Robert Peel by exciting popular attention to itsmperations,pr compel Censer fritiVVS • 14f - riot:et e thime - clettlditig p int.,cs'"to the Monopolists, on the faith of which they were returned to iamen t . • The Courier, in a very plethoric article, attempts to attack the whole Whig school of polities for their con • stant and strenuous exposure of the Anti-Corn-law falla cies:, and, with a feebleness of argument matched only by its own fictitious statements, foolishly seeks to grapple with Leviathan. A boisterous attack is then .mnde-upon Mr. Cobden, of the Manchester Conference, whose alleged perversions of truth are superlatively eclipsed by the ab surdities and falsehoods of his reviewer. The Standard is angry at the presumptuous opportu nities taken by the Whig press of ascribing► actions and n:otives to her Majesty, which the Standard considers he; wholly incapable of, and runs full tilt at the assertion of tie Chronicle upon the Queen's absence from Parlia - 'tient, that " Her Majesty's Ministers she does meet— her Pa •liaanent not." The Standard hopes ardently that it may not he guilty of any disrespect to her Majesty in placing the slightest confidence in any intimations of the same colour as the above, THE ARMY.
