A small yearly or weekly contribution will secure the most ample return for after life; thus-21. 12s. per annum (Is. a week) at the age of 20, will give the policy holder the fol lowing option, at the age of 65 Annuity for remainder of life... ... £47 16 Cash 394 11 Policy, without further contributions, of 466 0 Other periods of life (of 50, 55, and 60) may be with similar advantages. 2.

The System adopted by this Corporation combines the Prin ciple of Mutual Assurance with the security of a large Sub scribed Capital and the support 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. :—Vhen an insurance is fur the whole term of life, one-half of the premium is only required to be paid for the first five years, the other half may remain unpaid, subject to the charge 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 immediate out lay, whether to secure a Debt, provide for his Family, or to convert Income into Capital for his own use. Prospectuses, Tables of Rates, and every information, may be had on application to Messrs. B. and M. Boyd, No. 4, New Bank-buildings, London. DROTECTION of LIFE and PROPERTY. The frequent occurrence of Fire and dreaiful sacrifice of human life and of propel ty is enough to arouse the atten tion of every thinking mind to seek some remedy against these awful calamities. J. READ begs to inform the public that he has ready FIRE ENGINES, on his new DOUBLE-ACTION PRINCIPLE, that will discharge 70 gallons of water per minute : worked by ten men. The above are mounted on Patent Wheels, and are adapted for country Brigade use. Likewise smaller Engines, worked by six men, so portable that they will pass through a doorway or passage three feet wide, and will discharge 38 gallons per minute. These arc particularly well adapted for mansions, villages, factories, &c. &c. Also, Read's Portable Domestic Engine, upon an entire new principle ; may be kept in a hall, passage, or staircase, and carried up and d own s t a i rs , an d worked b y r two men, dis charging 15 gallons per minute to a distance of 60 feet« The above are fitted with Metallic Valves, so perfect that if standing by for any length of time, they would be ready to act in an instant.

The Work which is now presented to the publie is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tiot.s, which for some unaccountable reason have teen either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the of dinary practitioner. To en t er i nto t h e details athese 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. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that , there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whe ther we consider such person to hold the relation of a PA RENT. a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. . - . .

NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT. ELECTION MOVEMENTS. Messrs. Blake and Gisborne are expected here to ad dress the electors this evening at the Green Dragon Inn ; their Parliamentary business detained them in town, which the enemy have taken advantage of, and carmssed both this town and Cowes ; they report they have a majority of 22, that is, if the Chartists (about 40) do not vote. it is to be seen if these misguided men have taken such a fancy to Tory rule as to remain neuter—whether they will travel with their friends the three parts of the road which they go together, or join the enemy and journey in a contrary direction. " The farthest way round is the nearest way home," is their motto—they forget they may stick in the mud on their way ; the straight road is the surest. The Reformers, we hear, have not moved at Cowes— no committee, no canvass, not even a list of voters ob tained ; they forget that though the Tories are not so strong there as at former elections, every vote should be secured, nothing left to chance or those madmen the Chartists, who must be considered Tory allies. How many curious answers did we not get on Satur day to the question What is the majority ? A terrible one—a miserable one—a disgraceful one—an unaccount able one—a dishonourable one. Well, but how many ? Why one—an odd fellow—it was a sort of match with 311 of a side, and an odd man—a disgraceful one—Wal ter bewitched, and Nottingham run mad. WEST COWES, ISLE OF WIGHT. REPRESENTATION OF MARY GREAT CONCILIATION MEETING._ _ Yesterday a Special General Meeting of the Mar y lebone R ei ,:rm and R eg i s t rat i on Association was he ld at the Rooms o f t h e Association i n Warren -street, Mtzfoy.square, for the purpose o„ . taking measures to prevent the Reform interest from divided, so as to let in a Tory candidate at the next election,. Mr. HovEstm, N having been elected to the Chair, Mr. IvimEy said that the meeting had been called for the purpose of taking some steps to conciliate the divided feelings of the Reformers in the borough. He read a correspondence which had passed between Mr. Young and Commodore Napier, and which had been published in some of the Morning Papers. A discussion of considerable length, in which Mr. Kenset Mr: Bacon, :nd other well-known — Pleformers took part, then ensued, respecting the irnvracticable propositia, of Mr. Young, that the claims of the antagonist Literal candidates should he submitted to a public inee,ting of the inhabitants of the borough. Sir BENJAMIN HA LL said he was not aware that the pre sent discussion would have been the subject of the meeting. He had come down there for the purpose of offering to enter into a coalition with his respected and Gallant Frieud, Coni modore Sir Charles Napier.—(Loud cheers.) He bad felt, after the meetings which his Gall tnt Friend had attended, and the way in which he had been received at every one of them, that it was no longer a matter of &stilt as to the opinions of the electors in his favour.—(Chee.rs.) When he (Sir B. Hall) had the honour of meeting the electors as a candidate he was met with no such kind feeling . , no such enthusiasm as that which attended th e G a ll ant Commodore throughout, and the result r n e d s umlot would d lly in justified sure th e s h u i ff m ra i g n e s bc o l f i ev t thatneggreat m hisa majority..— (Hear, hear.) Still a lth oug h M r . Yoslng might be the weaker vessel of the two, he was a gentleman.. and as gentlemen they ought to treat him courteously. —( Hear, hear.) After what had fallen from Sir C. Napier he could not but consent to some test of the opinions of the electors, in order to satisfy the friends of Mr. Yo, and to abide b 7 the result whatever that result might be.-(Hear, hear.) fhe only chance the Tories had of success was disunion amongst the Reformers. —( Hear, hear.) The great object the Tories had in view was to keep Mr. Young determined to go to the poll, for a leading Tory had ,told him (Sir Benjamin Hall) a few days since, that they would rather give Mr. Young 500 votes themselves than he should retire.—( Hear, hear.) Another had said to him, we will spend 100,0001. rather than he (Sir B. Hall) should again sit for that borough.—( Laugh ter.) He told his Tory friend that he was happy to hear that. his (Sir B. Hall's) political character was worth so much.— (Renewed laughter.) This, however, showed that all the energies of tho Tory party would be brought into play against them; that neither money nor any thing else would be spared to attain their object, and it ought to stimulate all Reformers to exert themselves for one common end.—( Hear, hear.) He believed that Mr. Young was sincere in his intentions as re garded taking the sense of the electors, and that if he found that they were in favour of Sir C. .Napier, he would feel him self bound, as a gentleman, to retire under such circumstances. He (Sir B. Hall) would venture to suggest a plan which he hoped would, if carried out, meet the convenience of all par ties.to the following effect : __V,at the meeting agree with The Hon. B ar onet concluded, by suggesting a plan the principle of Mr. Young's letter to Sir Charles Na pier and his reply, that the weaker of the two candi dates should at once retire from the contest, and that for the purpose of ascertaining the. sense of the elector s as t o whether Sir C. N a pier or Alr. Voting should retire, lists be taken round the borough by two or wore electors resident in each district, an equal number to be chow en by the Committees of Mr. Young and Sir C. Napier ; no e.'ectors but those who have voted for Reformers only to sign the requisition ; such lists to be returned on or before Monday night; the expense to be borne between the two committees." He ( Sir B. Hall) thought this would be a fair course between both gentlemen, and he hoped that whoever might be in a minority, they would most sincerely abide by the result.—( Very great cheering.) Mr. HEWETT said that the proposition of the Hon. Bar onet was most judicious, and he had no hesitation in moving thol a committee be „appointed to communicate with Mr. Younces committee, and to take measures for effecting a perfect recon ciliation of the Reformers. Mr. GOMM seconded the resolution, which was carried by a majority of nearly.4oo to two. Thanks were then voted to the Chairman, and the meeting separated. A meeting of the electors resident in the district of Camden town was subsequently . held at the Camden Head Tavern High-treet, Dr. Taylor in the chair. Mr. STOCKER moved and Mr. HODGES seconded a resoltt tion,pledging the electors present to support Commodore Sir C. Napier at the next election. The resolution was carried unanimously, and thanks having been voted to Dr. Taylor for his gentlemanly and impartial conduct in the chair, the meeting separated with three cheers for the Queen and the Commodore, which were several times repeated by the crowd in front of the house. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. ASCOT HEATH RACES—YESTERDAY. The sport at this truly aristocratic meeting, is always con tingent, in some degree, on • the running a t Newmarket and Epsom, the effect of any particular display of superio:ity in the great events there being either to cut down the stakes in which they may be subsequently engaged in to walks ever, or so to reduce fields at to deprive them of all public interest. Such appeared likely to be the case at Ascot. Oakley's New market form was thought quite good enough to make the two stakes in whirl' he is engaged, "certainties." Coronation's performance at Epsom put the " Ascot Derby" into Mr. Raw linson's pocket, without the trouble of a race. Van Amburgh's superiority over the other beaten Derby horses, was so clear, that the Buckingham Palace stakes was looked upon _as over, and Ghuznee won the Oaks so cleverly that the Coronation followed the Dinner as a matter of course. With so many deductions from the list, it is fortunate that the number of cups, handicaps, plates, two and three year slid plates, &c., was sufficiently great to afford unbounded gra tification to those present yesterday, and to afford an aggregate of sport for the meeting rarely equalled. In the present state of the political world a full attendance of the higher classes could not be expected, and the paralyzing influence of the late betting has so effectually. damped the ardour of the pro fessional turfites th a t the muster on the lawn, in front of the Stand, fell short, and business was flat. With " the multitude," however, it was otherwise ; th - owing politics to the wind, and ignorant of the mysteries and anxiety that press so heavily on the sporting men, they si illingly gave way to the anticipation of participating with their Queen in the enjoyment of one of the most noble of oar national pastimes, and, attended in numbers which, if under the average of the last three years, were quite as large as could have been expected with such cold and gloomy weather. Before we enter into the day's proceedings it is necessary to point out two or three improvements which, under the un ceasing care of the noble Master of the Buck Hounds and his zealous clerk of the course, have been effected on anti about the course since the last meeting. The Royal stables have been completed on a comprehensive scale, and in a style creditable alike to those who planned and those who erected them ; a shrubbery has been added to the other at tractions of the Grand Stand, blinds fixed' to the windows of the royal one, to protect its illustrious and distinguished seen pants from the sun, which, we regret to add, was non eat, and such parts of the running grounds as had been objected to by the trainers, subjected to the now fashionable process of tann ing with complete success. Various ether matters have been attended to, but we have mentioned enough to show that the comfort and accommodation of the public, even in little mat ters, have not been unattended to. The Grand Stand was opened on the same scale of prices as last year, and a great improvement accomplished, by placing the refreshment rooms under the management of Mr. Careless. The Queen's arrival took place a few minutes after one, amidst cia...as tft;e cheers from all parts of the course. In the carriage with her Majesty wore his Royal Highness Prince Albert, his Excellency Prince Esterhazy, and the Marchioness of Norinanby. In the other carriages were Prince Nicholas Esterhazy, the Duke of Rutland and Lady Adeliza Manners, Marquis of Normattby, Lord and Lady Powerscout t, Earl of Errol, Earl of Aboyne, Earl and C'ountess of Albemarle, Lord and Lady Palmerston, Lord and Lady Ashley, Lord and Lady G. Lennox, Lord Poltimore, Lord in Waiting ; Sir W. Lumley, Groom inWaiting ; Lord A. Conyngham, Equerry ; Sir C. Boa ater, Equerry to his Royal Higness Prince Albert; and the Hon. C. Murray, Master of the Household; the Earl of Uxbridge, Lord Chamberlain; Lord Kinnaird, Master of the Buck Hounds, were also in attendance. Her Majesty and the Prince, on their appearance a t the window, a nd at var i ous parts f the afternoon, were cheered loudly by the crowd in front of the stand, aad on their departure, which took place after the race for the Vase, received every demonstration of respect. Besides the Royal visitors we noticed the Duke of Rut land, Duke of Beaufort, Duke of Bedford, Marquis of Exeter, Marquis of Westminster, Earl of Wilton, Earl Strathaven, Earl Bruce, Earl of Pembroke, Earl of Lichfield, Earl of Chesterfield, Earl of Southampton, Earl of Rosslyu, Lord Maidstone, Lord George Pagot, Lord G.

The list contained nine races, each horse having a number affixed to his name on the card. As the jockeys weighed, the numbers were exhibited on a black board, placed conspicuously on the Judge's chair, and on the termination of each race the number of the winning horse, much confusion and trickery being thus prevented. The racing commenced at half-past one o'clock, with The Trial Stakes of 501., added to a Sweepstakes of 5. sows. each ; for 2 yrs a feather, 3 yrs 7st 41b, 4 yrs Sat 131 b, 5 yrs, 6 yrs, and aged 9st 41b.

NOTTINGHAM, JUNE 8, 1841.—The triumph of Mr. Walter in Nottingham is at an end, and the disgrace which ap peared to have settled on the town for ever is now about to be wiped off. All shades of party and all grades and sects of political men, supported Mr. Walter at the last election, to show to the Government that it was high time they brought forth more decisive measures, and dared the Tory monopolists to death. The Chartists united with the Tories for this pur pose ; they returned John Walter and gained their end, bat having gained it they now return to the Ministers to aid them in carrying their views out. The main body of the Chartists, comprising all the influential men, have returned to the Li berals ; they have formed committees, and are using their ut most exertions in favour of the Liberal candidates. As an in stance of the re-action in the feelings of the poorer classes we may mention the following which took place en Monday night : Walter's friends called a Meeting to condemn the Ministers, and bear Mr. E. P. Cox, who had presented a petition to the House of Commons, deliver a philippic against the Whigs for attempting to bribe one who had himself at the last election bribed numbers. They prepared a waggon, and had every thing right to speak, but at the time appointed an immense party of Liberals, with band playing, banners, and rosettes, marched down in the Market-place, took possession of the waggon, and there carried resolutions, unanimously, to support the Ministers, and to support Liberal candidates at the next election. Many thousands agreed to it amidst tremendous cheering, and the Tories retired from the field, leaving it in their undisturbed possession. The Chartists then 'wade a motion that they had more confidence in Ministers to help them to political freedom, and to release their friends than its the Tories, and they therefore agreed to vote for and support them—this was likewise carried unanimously. The meeting then quietly dispersed. The feeling is corapletely changed, and Monday night was the death dirge of Mr. Walter. FORGED FRENCH TREASURY TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

A letter from Algiers, of the 26th ultimo, gives the follow ing details of the recent fraud committed by means of forged Treasury bills : " On the 22d, a Spanish schooner, named La Vierge de Regle, Captain Jose Maria de Otero, came into port from Al meria, with a cargo of 2,000 quintals of lead, coneiznad to the Storekeeper-General of the Army. As no such officer exists the ship was immediately put under surveillance, and a re port got ebread that her freight was the produce of fraud, through the means of forged bills. We have learnt tram good information that this author of the fraud presented kimrelf, several seeks ago, to the French C onsu l s o f S pa i n, assum ing the name of Hely de Beaumont, and pretending to be a brother of M. Gustave de Beaumont, the Deputy now at Algiers with M. de Tocquevillo and M. de Corceles, on their return from Mostaganem, having apparently gives up their intention of accompanying the expedition against Mascara and Tekedempt. Hely de Beaumont gave himself out. to cur consular a g ent in Spain as an officer of the milita r y adminis tration hi Algeria, and produced a pretended letter from the Governor-General, charging him to make large purchases of lead for the army. All the Consuls of France at Valencia, Malaga, Gibraltar, and Cadiz, appear to have entertained no doubt of the authenticity of the letter, sr the reality of his mission, for they gave him successively letters of recom mendation. Cadiz and Gibraltar were the principal theatres of his frauds, and it is said he issued his false bills at Gibral tar to the amount of 200,000 f. At Cadiz the Vice-Consul in troduced him to several of the first merchants, and through their mediation he obtained one-third of the lead now on board the detained ship. In one transaction, to the amount of 40,000 fr., he gave a bill for 50,000 fr., receiving the difference in money. Not the least striking part of the affair is, that there is every reason to believe that the lead thus acquired was des tined for Abd-el-Kader ; and thus the French Consuls—un known to themselves, it is true—have been made accomplices in a fraud and an attempt to supply an enemy of their country with ammunition. It is confidently believed that the ship was on her way to Morocco, but was driven by stress of weather into Algiers."

SIR,—A report, which is totally void of foundation, has been circulated, and if not contradicted is likely to occasion considerable loss to the owners of the numerous lodging-•houses in my charge, as well as to the town generally.

April, and only two deaths in May, Robert Anthony, aged fifty-eight, and Robert Mitchell, aged, sixty. four, making only four in three months in a population of five thousand souls; indeed the town never was more free from sickness of every kind.

DOVER, JUNE s.—Yesterday a report was cir culated that a corporal of the 34th Regiment had bee* shot by one of the privates of the same corps on the road between here and Sandwich ; but we are glad to find, on subsequent in quiry, that the manner in which the man met his death, though of a melancholy description, does not bear so criminal a complexion. From the evidence at a Coroner's inquest held yesterday at the Little Rove, Whitfield, it appears that the deceased had been sent with two soldiers as an escort to con vey three prisoners to Sandwich, and on their return home they went into the 'public-house, the Geoige, at \Void er _ share, in company with two females, where they indulged in intoxicating drinks until they all became drunk. on leaving " this place to proceed towards Dover it would seem th a t de ceased turned off the road into Havledean - wood, and sh o t him self, for he was found there two hours after mortally wounded from a mml.ct •hot, whichlvkl pe,”ed Cot:mirth h;„ ‘„„, h ... one (nf tllc f,‘, ,, , , i ,n% lair 7 in the wood lic , iot , him, fiat site was in such a state of intoxication that she could give tie account of the cea s e melancholydestros,d himself affair.

Rennie's canvass in this town has been most triumphant. So complete has been his success that poor Mr. Godson, who has been sweating fora Tory jud ges hi p f or the last three years, has been obliged to leave his few clients to conduct their own causes, and start off for Kidderminster, in the ineffec tual hope of staving the tide. So completely, however, has the current set aga i nst hi m, that i t is quite safe to predict that it will not he during the next Parliament that he assumes either the senatorial toga or the judicial ermine. He must confine himself for the present at any rate to the quarter Sessions' practice, in which he may with truth be said to shine. NEWCASTLE-trepea-LvNE.--How is it that we hear cf no movement on the part of the Reformers in this manufacturing town ? The Tory Papers write of the return of two of their party for Newcastle, as if there was not a single man in the town who was inclined to vote against them, or free to do so if he had the inclina tion. The fact, on the contrary, is that Newcastle con tains a very strong party of anti-monopolists, and that the slightest possible exertion of .the influence of the Duke of Sutherland in this neighbourhood would suffice to change the character of the representatives. At the last municipal election Liberals, who neither canvassed nor appeared in the contest, were returned at the head of the poll in both wards. Is there any earthly reason why the party should n o t b e equa ll y success f u l i n re turning l'arliamentiary representatives ? STAFFORDSHIRE, NonTn.—The great landed pro prietors in this district are the Duke of Sutherland, the Earl of Shrewsbury, the Marquis of Anglesey, and Lord Waterpark, all supporters of the Government. The es tates of moderate magnitude are also chiefly in the hands of zealous Reformers. The district comprises the great manufacturing population of the Potteries, than whom no class of people in the empire are more deeply interested in securing the blessings of free trade. Yet with all these disadvantages, strange to say, two Tory candidates, Messrs. Watts Russell and Addersley, have the boldness to offer themselves, and what is more, to boast of a cer tainty of success. The latter of these candidates has but a very remote interest in the county, and the former is only known as a not particularly mild magistrate, al• though a very large contributor to funds for building churches. All we shall remark is that if the Liberals of the district neglect the opportunity they possess of de feating this brace of Tories, they will incur the scorn of every constituency in the empire. By the way the last registration exhibited a very great majority for the free trade party. STAFFORDSHIRE, Sount.—There is a strong disposi tion among the anti-monopolists of South Staffordshire to bring forward the Hon. Edward Lyttleton, the son and heir of Lord Hatherton, as a candidate for the re presentation in conjunction with that consistent Liberal and anti-monopolist, Col. Anson. We believe there is little doubt but that if Mr. Lyttleton could be in duced to stand, the battle would end most tri umphantly for the cause of free trade. • The great landowners of South Staffordshire are Lords Ha therton and Wrottesley on the west side, and the Earl of Lichfield and the Marquis of Anglesey on the east. Lord Stafford also possesses some property in the northern extremity. These noblemen possess great in fluence in the county, whilst the Tory landlords, Lords Talbot, Dartmouth, Bradford, and Begot, holding far less land, can boast of very little influence, either moral or political, arising from good sources. Lord Ward's property would be, most probably, exercised in favour of the Lyttleton family, and it is also probable, that in the event of a contest, Mr. Giffard, a oonsiderable landed proprietor of a very old Catholic family, would lend his aid to the good cause. Looking at the vast manufacturing population in South, Staffordshire, and the great enthusiasm at present existing in Wolverhamp ton and the iron district in favour of the free trade mea sures of the Government, it seems, beyond doubt, that Lord Ingestrie, the present bread-taxing representative of the division, would be thrown out were Mr. Lyttleton to come forward, and were the oracle to be properly worked. 'We know of no district in which the defeat of a monopolist would exercise greater influence than in South Staffordshire, and we should heartily rejoice to see the power of the electors usefully exercised in re placing their small-loaf representative by an advocate for cheap bread and full employment. STAFFORD.—We hear of no movements in this imma culate borough. Major Chetwynd retires. He has af fronted a great number of the constituency by his con duct with regard to certain local matters ; of which we know little or nothing, and has no doubt offended a still more numerous section by his vote in favour of monopoly and dear bread. We have not heard who offers himself in the Major's place. Probably two Tories will come in, as few Liberals possess that utter absence of decency in electioneering matters which is desirable, if not abso lutely necessary, to secure a majority of voters from the Staffiard electorate. TAMIN:ORTIL—The Liberals of Tamworth will, as usual, fight the battle to the last—that is to say, sup posing there is a battle to be fought., which, as at most other elections in this town, depends entirely on the will and pleasure of the Premier expectant. Captain A'Court, Sir Robert's nominee on the last occasion, retires from the representation, whether because he is tired of Sir Robert or of his seat in Parliament it is difficult to say. Whether the Lord of the Manor of Drayton will have the temerity, after his repeated declarations of non-inter ference, to put up his brother, son, or nephew for the second seat, remains to be seen, and, as may be supposed, the Liberals of Tamworth await his declaration on this point with as much impatient curiosity as their brethren generally await his declaration on the corn question. Meanwhile one thing is certain, Captain Townshend, who has on previous occasions so ably fought the Liberal battle in Tamworth, will fight it again, and whether un opposed or doomed to go to a poll against some relation or nominee of Drayton Manor, will fight it with every prospect of a triumphant result.. To show the state of public feeling in the borough, it is only necessary to say that at a push the Reformers can poll nearly 200 plum per.; out of a constituency of little more than 500, and that there are 150 more who would either plump or split with them if they dared. Were the Government so base as to play the Tory game, and spend the public money in electioneering contests, Sir Robert, hiquelf, to say nothing of his nominee, would he hard run. But the Liberals at.Tamworth depend more on the exccllt nee of their cause than on the weight of their purse. The last election cost them less in hundreds than it cost Cap- tain A'Court, or Sir Robert, or the Carlton Club, in thousands. WALSALL.—The free-traders will endeavour to seclare this borough from the mis-representation of Mr. Slav ar..y- Monopoly Gladstone. Mr. Smith will most prob tbly offer himself again, but should he be unable to stam 1, in consequence of any other engagement, there are p 1( nit) , of candidates ready to take the field. Mr. Lyttlekaa is spoken of in the event of his not offering himself for 'the county, and Mr. Charles Forster, Jun., is also nanxod. Either of these gentlemen would have e ver y prospect o f success, even should Mr. Gladstone draw his pun ie strings as largely as before, which we rather suspect he would not do, either as a matter of course, or for the ,Yoke of the thing. WOLVERIIAMPTON.—Messrs. Villiers and Tho rnely will probably be re-elected for this borough withou t op position ; in fact to oppose them would only bo spei idiLg money fruitlessly. Whilst speaking of this town, we may Just notice that a large manufacturer named Thorn , :roil, or Thornecroft, who sometime back was much bespattered by the monopolists for his violent and uncompromising opposition to free trade, is reported on good authori ty to have altered, or at least to have modified, his opil uo:ts. This is clearly one of the instances in which the foi o f truth has prevailed. Doubtless it will not be lona. ere we have to record very many similar cases. PRIVATE TUTOR.

The Count de Parsent, major domo to his Royal Highness Don Francisco de Paula, has sent the following tribute of congratulation to the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs on the nomination of Espartero, for the purpose of having it presented to the Regent : " As a Spaniard, as an Infant of Spain, as a devoted sub ject to, and as the uncle of my beloved and illustrious Queen Donna Isabella 11., I have the pleasure of most cordially con gratulating the illustrious patriot, who, by the supreme will of the Cortes, has just been elevated to the high dignity of single Regent. It must be a great comfort to all Spaniards, as it is to myself, to see the well-deserved proof of gratitude and distinction with which the country has honoured, on this solemn occasion, the invincible general, who, after having saved it from the most horrid dynastical war, has at the same time preserved its honour, its independence, its constitution, its throne, its laws, and its liberty, from the gulph of destruc tion. 'I he future welfare of the country, for the happiness of which I have constantly prayed, appears to me under the most copsoling and hopeful aspect. Its destiny being confided to the genius sent by Providence to its assistance at the very moment when destruction stared it in the face, peace, internal harmony, and complete administrative regularity nil!, thanks to the powerful assistance granted by heaven, succeed to the uneasi ness, division, and discouragement, which threaten ruin—a happy event, which promises to my country numerous days of increased prosperity. "I congratulate my fellow citizens, I rejoice myself, at the idea that the illustrious Spaniard who has acted with such loy alty during the civil war, and brought it to such a glorious ter mination, by directing our national armies, will equally know how, at the head of a generous people, to make the happiness of her brave sons, raising a wall of brass between the present and the past, confirming religiously the Constitution and the laws, giving stability to the throne of Isabella 11., and eter nally establishing national liberty and independence. These hare been the constant objects of my most ardent wishes. I feel the greatest pleasure in renewing the expression of those wishes, and I pray Heaven to preserve the days, and to pro tect the steps of the illustrious Duke, for the welfare of any country and for his own glory.

The 'theatre having been chiefly built by the , late Philip Astley of spars of ships, masts, &c., presented peculiarly inflammable materials fur the action of tire. The most probable cause of the fire is, that from the great nriniber of guns discharged that night in the spectacle of The tVar,; of Cromwell, a portion of the wadding had dropped into elait is technically termed the " Magazine' floor, an intermediate stage frequently used to produce the effect ef a sinkise or the explosion of a mine, and there ignited with bustibles.

The following historical account of this celebrated a a: public amusement will on this melancholy occasion be re , • • interest : This equestrian establishment derived its origin from the lite Mr. Philip Astley, an uneducated, but enterprisiee etei ce•sfel adventurer. His history is so immediately :net is with the subject that a biographical slietch of his life is cessary adjunct to an account of the edifice. Astley was born at Neweastle-under-Lone, in St2:lTord on the bth of July, 1742. Dis father, who was a 7,nrer and cabinet-maker. brought him to Loudon ahem ti 1754, and taught him his own business. In 1759, .ifte disagreement with his parent, he quitted hint and era Coventry in the 15th or General lailiott's Regiment Home, commonly called the Tailor's Regiment, many trade then :erring in it. Here, by hi s bravery, he so came noticeable, and being a remarkably expeit he was speedily made one of the rough riders, and teat. breaker to the regiment. On the return of the army to England he determiee,l in apply the skill which he had acquired in the menayc rivalling the equestrian performances of Pace, Johnson, ftri•! Old Sampson. who exhibited in the Jubilee Gardens, •-, Iris sign of the Three Hats, near the turnpike at Islington anti having solicited and obtained his discharge, General Efiett, as a reward for his intrepidity and soldier-like rlepleaneve, pre sented him with a fine charger, which was sfteehrtis knol. a to the public as the " Spanish Horse." Conjoining with the three equestrians above named, he com menced his career as a public exhibitor in an open hell, !leer Glover's Halfpenny-batch, at Lambeth. The charger elven him by his General, and another home, purchased in teuitli field, were then the only animals he possessed. _Meeting- witil encouragement at different fairs, till he became master ef a little property, he took a large piece of ground of..a timiser merchant, near Westminster-bridge, na the Surrey side (the identical spot occupied by the late amphitheatre), and incliasitag it circularly with boarding, erected seats for an audience, eith a pent-house roof, covered with canvass. Mere his pricer were 6d. for superior seats, and 3d. for children and servants. His performances were displayed within a rope ring, " melee no roof but the canopy of heaven." In 1770, perhaps from increase of entertainments, his price was raised to Is. Astley centintied to improve his accommodations frorti season to season, hile, like wise to strengthen his company, having now admitted frets of agility, vaulting, &c. In 1775 his admission prices being 2r. to the gallery, and Is. to the riding-ground, it wits announced that the seats were covered, and that slight showers woal,l not prevent the performance. f 1. }i Astley's landlord at this time became involved in pceuaiary difficulties, and Astley lent him 2001. on mortgage, the timber yard and timber forming his security. This mortgaged pro perty became his, he sold the timber, and with the produce, increased by 601. resulting from the sale of a diamond ring, which he had found at the foot of Westminster b ridge, he erected, in 1778, a roofed edifice, which he adrer ' tised to be opened in the beginning of the following year as the Amphitheatre Riding House. Hitherto Astley's eqUee , trian feats had been performed in the mornings only, whilst his evenings were appropriated to the exhibition of Les Ombres Chinoises, sleight of hand, comic dancing, a conjuring horse, dancing dogs, Rossignol's, imitations of birds, fireworks, sLe. in a large room, at No. 22, Piccadilly; but in Passion Week, 1781, he performed by candlelight for the first time at the prices of 2s. 6d. the boxes, Is. 6d. the pit, and 6d. the side gallery. In 1780, he commenced a winter season in the Ara phitheatre, and the horsemanship of " Young Astley" became much celebrated, and one or two females wore engaged. Balancing, the 'Menders' tricks on chaires, and slack-cops vaulting also formed part of the entertainments ; and a " beautiful zebra" was exhibi'ed in the Ridine-seht,,,t. I n the same year the curious notice was issued of " No persons to bring dogs." At this tine Hughes started a ride, which was the forerunner of the present Surrey. Astley, at the beginning of 1784, and in opposition to 1 - litglies, began stage-performances, and erected a stage, re-deene,,ting his amphitheatre in a novel manner, and opening it under the new title of the " Royal Grove." Astley hid at this offie‘ also an amphitheatre at Paris, clans le. Rue et Faulio,rg (.1, 4 Temple, where his equestrians and voltigeurs performed. anii , young Astley, while there, was commanded by Louis XVI. and the beautiful Marie Antoinette to perform before the Court at Ver,ai!les. The manly agility of young Astley, his symmetry ef figure, and elegance of attitude and deportosent, en highly pleased the King and Queen, that they presented him with a go'd medal set with diamonds, and at the ssme time " dubbed" him the "English Rose," in contradistinction to thsee.egant dancer " Vestris," who was then styled the " Franttli Rose," In 1792, Astley. from ill-health, resigned the Royal Saloon, as this theatre was then called, to his son, ander whees, direc tion it continued to flourish till the 16th August., 1794, when it was destroyed by fire, with all its scenery and ptom•rty of every kind. At that time the elder Astley wo' service: as a volunteer in the Duke of York's army, but returned home tts retrieve, if possible, his heavy loss.- He actively pr./weeded to re-build his Amphitheatre, and such dispatch IVR.R. eNertesi, that. it was re-opened on Easter Monday, 1795, under toe ness appellation of the Amphitheatre of Arts. Thu sup, r ;or sle gance, end more expensive performances, raised 0., pr ear, 4s. boxes, pit 2s. and gallery Is. No alteration ler., b een since made. In the year 1798, this establishment tta, styled Astley's " Royal Amphitheatre," and half-price was began to be taken. On the 2d September, 1803, the theatre was consumed by a second conflagration. On this occasion the loss wee esti mated at 30,000/., of which scarcely more than one-sixth was covered by insurance. The horses only were saved, wet those principally by the exertions of Mr. fsearle, the beat-1,n.1 ler, of Stangate-street, who had likewise been th. , (em s& ef pfe.ervirtt them at the former fire. Unhappily, the mother• in-law of young Astley perished in the flames. Astley, itoweTer. his accustomed celerity, immediately commenced the • - e.'s,:ien of a new Amphitheatre, which opened s's Easter 2th,risy, 1804. Astley was his own architect, and it Las been rewarked that his attendance was beyond all precedent. " Early or late, bail, rain, frost, snow, or sunshine, impeded him not. Th,_, H , he was, drilling the men at their work, as if he had been tra L ing a regiment of soldiers for the rigid duties of a winter's Case. ',sign." The designs Ia- the interior were by Mr. Grieve, sec.. of Covent Garden Theatre. Some time after the Amphitheatre was rebuilt, larnsr... Parker, Handy, Crossman, Smith, and W. Davies, all of *host formed part of the company, were admitted to a half-sharr. the conceit), in conjunction with Astley the younger ; anci flaring their united management Horse spectacles vs..rt• firs . produced upon the stage. At the end Lf the season in !so t+ Smith retired. 'I he next season was uncommonly prinllntivo, chiefly irom the attraction of an equestrian spectacle Blood-red Knight ; and it is said that the proprietors eiridti 18,000/. amongst them at its close. In 1806, the elfin. Astle : : being tired of a quiet life, started a new theatre in Wyen...4 reet , called the Olympic Pavilion, which, in a few years afterr.nrc.4, he sold to Elliston for 3,000 guineas, and an annuity el 100/. daring life. That edifice 'was the last of nineteen tvt.ieh ht built in the course of his theatrical career. In 1813, Astley, long afflicted with a phlegmatic disorder, went to France, but his health grivivally deelining, he cried at Paris, on the '2oth of October, Itl4, in the 73d year of hi age, and was buried in the cemetery of Nre la Chaise. He be queathed a respectable and unincumbered property to hi. son, Mr. J. Astley, during life, and in the event of the Iraer dying without issue, one-sixteenth was devised. to lAles. Astley, and the remainder to the children of his own skier, Mrs. Gill, namely, four nieces and one nephew. In Isl 7, Parker retired, and the other shareholders liavine previously seceded, Mr. W. .Davis became joint leesee wita Mr. J. Astley. This partnership continued till 1821, when, on the 19th of October. Astley died at Paris, in the same house, chamber, and bed in which, just seven years before, his father had expired, and his remains were deposited clos,e to those of his parent in the same cemetery. Mr. AV. Davis was for some years the sole propriety Of the horses, and conducted the entertainments with great ,iiecess till the and of 1824, when his interest in the lease expired. Under his management it was known as Davis's Amphitheatre, and many splendid equestrian spectacles were produced, one of which, the Battle of Waterloo, formed the grandest military display th a t was ever exhibited. The Amphi t h eatre h aesince been rented b y ibis celebrated equest rian per f ormer Ducrow.

The annual rental of the last lease was 1 , 0001 - The general form of the interior was that of an elongane lyre. The equestrian circle, or ride, was about forty-four feet in diameter. 'the interior was fitted up by Mr. Grieve , ben. , in 181 e, at a u expense of about 4,0001. The proscenium was about forty f ee t i n w id th, and h an d some l y ei nhelli.thtel.
