Aided by an ,liciinent chemist, we have succeeded in purifying our material so that acids do not affect it ; it is now so well known and aPpreeiated that it is universally superseding silver in all its *.g.

The proud but ga ll an t C apt. D elmar —the half-savage, half heroic negro pirate, Vincent—the true heart of oak, British tar, Bob Cross—the unlucky Tommy Dott--and, above all, the clever scapegrace who is the hero of the story—are drawn with consummate skill ; and the night adventure with Peggy Pear son in the gale of wind; the chase and fight with the two French ve.sels ; the blowing-up of the p'rate's schooner ; the duel by proxy, and other stirring incidents in Percival Keene's career, are executed with a force and spirit that Captain 11Iar r3 at himself has never exceeded."—Globe.

The Pearl, Burrows, arrived in the Downs from China, reports on her voyage from Sydney to Manilla, having, on the 24th September, discovered an island not laid down in the charts ; it lies in lat. 21, 59 S., lon. (by good chro nometers), 168 30 E. ; it is a fine loiiking island, well onded, with cocoa nut trees close to the beach. At noon we were within three miles of the east point, which is in the middle of the island ; off the point a reef projects about a mile to seaward ; it stretches in aN.by E. direction 20 to 25 miles, the captain sup posing it to be a new discovery, named it Burrows Island. Two days after we made the Island of Erro mange, which proved the chronometers to be correct. After we got to the northward of the N.E. point, we saw land stretching a great distance to the N. W.,. it appeared to be detached from the first island, but night coming on we could not ascertain. On April 4, in sailing down the China Sea, we observed the bottom quite plain ; we sounded in nine fathoms and found the bottom to be coral. This bank is not laid down in a chart of 1840 ; the bank is in lat 7 36 N., lon. 111 28 E., by two good chronometers and lunar taking the day before. Although we had nine fathoms Water, there may be less in some parts, and requires a good look out in this part of the China sea. VESSELS SPOKEN WITH. - Wetherall.

A strong body of the polic e were placed, under the orders of Mr. Etches (successor to the late Mr. Ty mins), and Mr, Leadbitter. The telegraph, want ing, however, the late improvements, was made available for the accommodation of the company, and the usual measures taken for the preservation of order and the prevention of accidents on the course.

In addition to the other attractions of this delight ful lounge, there is a grand Promenade Concert every evening, supported by some of the best per formers of the day, vocal and instrumental. Among the solo performers we have Mr. Laurent on the cor nopean, Mr. Saynor on the flute, young Blagrove on the concertina, Mr. G. Tyler on the clarionet, and Mr. Catchpole on the horn ; whilst among the vo calists we find Mrs. Wilson, Miss Thornton, Miss Tyler, Mr. Martin, and Mr. R. F. Smith. The first of these concerts commenced on Monday evening, under the able superintendence of Mr. - 1 1 . Julian Adams, who presided at the grand pianoforte. The performances consisted of a selection of favourite overtures, quadrilles, and waltzes, with solo parts for the different instrumentalists, and of quar- tettes, trios, duets, and solos for the vocalists. Emanuel's beautiful duet, " The Syren and the Friar," was beautifully given by Miss Thornton and Mr. R. F. Smith. Mr. Smith possesses a magnificent bass voice, and has paid great attention to its cultivation ; he is a singer of great promise.. The gem of the even ing, however, was the selection from Robert le Diable, which was admirably performed. Great credit is due to the gentlemen of the orchestra for the very efficient way in which this piece was given. After the first p:lrt of the concert, we had on Monday the exhibition of the Magical Illusions, and last evening the gas mi. croscope. After the second part of the concert on Monday, an Inaugural Essay, paying a high and well deserved compliment to that real friend to mankind, the late Dr. Birkbeck, was read; and last evening, after the conclusion of the concert, the Laughing Gas was exhibited, the effect of which on the recipients was ludicrous in the'extreme, producing a state of complete intoxication, -in which even tee totallers might indulge without any violation of their pledge. The evening's entertainments concluded with the exhibition of the Biscenascope, and of Mr. Clarke's beautiful Dissolving 'Views. The different work-rooms are open as during the morning, and the artists are all engaged in their usual avocations ; and in addition to the large and valuable museum of models, there is a fine . collection of paintings by British artists. This is one .of those few exhibitions which instructs while it amuses, and of its spirited prop tet,or we may, with justice say, "Miscuit utile (Intel. Spectatorein delectando pariterque monendo." As the whole of the amitsetnents are over shortly _ after ten o'clock, the junior branches of families cai; be indulged in an evening visit to the Ade laide Gallery without any. injury to their health, and certainly to the great improvement of their intel lectual faculties, and to the refinement of their taste. Undoubtedly nothing is of greater inTortance than to give the youthful mind a taste for refined and in tellectual amusements. Such a taste once acquired can never be wholly lost, and will preserve those who are fortunate enough to possess it from all temptation to indulge in those sensual gratifications which to a refined mind are merely disgusting. We are glad to see that the exertions of the enterprising proprietor of this delightful ►'. ace of amusement are appreciated by the public. The audience was numerous and re spectable. On Monday evening there were upwards of 1,000 persons present, who all seemed highly de lighted with the entertainments. The morning exhibition continues as usual. TRADESMAN AND OPERATIVE PROTESTANT ASSOCIATION. The second annual demonstration of this Associa tion came off last night, at Exeter Hall, when a very large number of persons assembled for the purpose of hearing the Report read, and a speech from the Rev. Hugh Stowell. Great pains had been taken, and no expense spared, to get together a tolerable concourse on this occasion, and, as far as numbers were con cerned, the Society was certainly pretty successful, but we must observe that the proportion of females to males was at least in the ratio of twenty to one. Benjamin B on d Cabbell, Esq. presided. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the business of the night, remarked that it was very pleasing . to observe so many people now assembled. He then struck away from the Protestant Association, and observed that the present G overnmen t was the best Government under Heaven, and he hoped that all before him would assist that Government in preserving peace and order at a time of, he might almost say, anarchy and dis order, when so many persons stepped out of their own spheres, and rushed into m a tt ers o f w hi c h t h ey h a d no knowledge, for the purpose of disturbing the public peace. The Report was read by the Secretary. It did not speak in very high terms of the flourishing condition of the Society, or of any increase lately in the number of its members, or in the amount of its sub scriptions. The great gun of the night was the Rev. Hugh.Stow.ell, ,We did not, indeed, observe any.etber - eminent man on the platform. Mr. STOWELL, in an eloquent, though as iniole rant a speech as ever we heard, moved a resolution, to the effect that the increased efforts of the Church of Rome to re-establish her heretical system in our land, in defiance of the existing laws of the country, called for the most strenuous, bold, and energetic measures from the Protestant Operatives of England, and all well-wishers to the peace and welfare of their country. Several other gentlemen, both reverend and lay men, followed ; several resolutions condemnatory of Popery, &c., were passed, and the meeting broke up at an early hour. The enthusiasm of the audience was by no means so great as we have witnessed on former occasions at this Hall. Had it not been, indeed, for the exertions of a number of men stationed throughout the meet ing with long staves in their hands who clapped their hands, stamped with their feet, and thumped with their sticks when a good thing was said, scarce a clap or a mark of approbation would have been heard. CHARTIST MEETINGS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. SlR,—Much indignation and regret has lately been expressed upon the conduct of the Magistrates and police, in preventing the public meetings of the Chartists. I most cordially join in expressing my regret, that any steps should be taken to prevent the expression of public opinion ; but the late conduct of the Chartists at public meetings, has very much dis gusted the middle classes, and most respectable members of society, and made them lukewarm in their favour. I am myself one of the middle class, and attended several Anti-Corn-law meetings, with the sole object of benefiting the working classes, by opposing the impolitic, unjust, and iniquitous Corn-laws. Upon all these occasions, the Chartists most rudely and vio lently interrupted the proceedings. They would not allow any discussion on the subject, and always dis turbed the meetings by introducing an amendment, to, the effect " that they could not expect any re dress, or justice, till the Charter became the law of the land." The Chartists are now treated in their own way by the police, who will not allow them to express their opinions in public ; and I hope the lesson will not be lost upon them. I detest tyranny of any kind, but if I must submit to it I. would rather prefer the tyranny of a Government t(,) that of the Char tists. Let us hope they will grow wise by experi ence, and in future Illow other persons to express opinions, though they may not be in accordance with their own. The attempt of the Tory papers to connect the late disturbances in the manufacturing districts with the Anti-Corn-la w L eague i s too ridiculous to require re futation, for the great majority of the members of the League are deeply interested in promoting the or derly, good conduct of the workmen. 'The real authors of the disturbances were the monopolist landlords, and they, and they only, are responsible for the consequences. It is dif&ult to say whether their selfishness exceeds their ignorance, for in making laws to benefit themselves, to the injury of o th er c l asses, they are not a ware that this injury must ultimately recoil upon themselves, for if the manufacturers cannot support or employ their workmen the land must. Your most obedient servant. Sept. 12. A LANDLORD. ---- THE PHILOSOPHY OF NEWS PAPERS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—l am much pleased with the intention—so Far as the writer, perhaps, knew his own intention —in the composition of the leading article of The Evening Sun of the 3d of September, as of many of your leading articles. It has much of the shrewd remark and good design of most of the offhand writings of your Paper, with some portion of un steady reasoning and needless difficulties. It wishes present legislators so instructed as most safely and easily to guide society to the haven which it must reach, at the very moment it has said that all former legislators were never so instructed to guide society to what it is at already—but that it has grown up in the course of nature, and will most probably in fu ture as heretofore. " What is required, therefore," it goes on to say, "is to try to make the present legislation as accordant as possible with the future state of society." This is a jumble. We must first know what that future state will be—which is plainly impossible. It then modestly intimates the unfitness of English journalists for such a task, and cannot be lieve party statesmen equal to it. It concedes the task to philosophers—the great masters of thought-- though it knows of none such, either at home or elsewhere. The present state of society is plain enough; the causes and cure are required, which it considers as covered with o b scur i ty and difficulty. Now I think that both causes and cure have been in your own Pap er po i nte d out very lucidly again and again. The causes of the prosperity of the country ana. almost sasupeyoru.,,iurnan inventions.. have . been repeatedly stated in your own Paper, and with perfect truth, to have been owing, under God, to the superior skill and industry of the inhabitants thereof, signally favoured by wonderful local advan tages, and by a larger degree of liberty than has been known elsewhere throughout the old civilised world ; while the great causes of its all but overbalancing adversity have been old institutions unrepaired, and unfitted to modern necessities, and, above all, class legislation. Thus, Sir, you have been more of a philosopher and :naster of - deep thought than you re collected yourself to be—as I once . knew a good man, of first-rate genius and capacious memory, ac tually forget one of many sermons which he had written and published, and which had secured the notice of all the pious reading population of Europe! But, although you had forgotten, your present reader had not ; and probably many of your readers bene ficially remember what you have written on such all-important subjects. Let class legislation be de stroyed. Let every Englishmen be made free of the State, and have his voice or vote in the arransroments of his country. Justice demands this. Equity calls loudly for it. It is not for us to know the hereafter; oudor country_ more but we all know what we ought to to y We ought to do justly. The man who desires to be a class legislator, desires to be, and will most surely . os, defence than cannon and the be, an unjust legislator. Such a man . may be . pitied and borne with, but not so his wish. Ills wish the People's should be scouted and denied. Equity and just ic e are the bright leading stars to future . prosperit and happiness.

A lengthened inquiry was yesterday gone into before Mr. Carter, Coroner for Surrey, at the Angel public-house, Rotherhithe, concerning the death of Mr. Joseph Paul, aged 39, late master of the brig Eden, of Newcastle, who was unfortunately drowned a week ago by his boat being capsized in a collision with the Waterman steam-boat No. 2, while off Cole stairs, Shadwell. Much excitement was produced by the accident, and the inquest-room was crowded with persons inte rested in the proceedings, amongst whom were the Harbour Masters of the Port of London, and others connected with the navigation of the river. Mr. Pelham attended to watch the proceedings on the part of deceased's friends, and Mr. Newbone, soli citor to the Watermen's Company, for the captain of the steam-boat. Samuel Johnson, a seaman on board the Eden, was examined, and deposed, that, on Tuesday, the 6th inst., the captain, himself, and two lads, had come up from Long Reach in the jolly-boat of the Eden, and went to Brewer's-wharf, Shadwell, and took in two casksreturned e theyp brokers u t T off to go down to the ship again, the captain steering, respecting of th b e ee cargo, r. and he v and the other three rowing. The boat had left the captainh h w e en t to t shore, and was shooting out of the tier, for the pur pose of crossing to the Surrey side, where there was a steam-boat towing down a schooner and a sloop, to which the captain intended to make fast so as to be towed down. When the boat had cleared the tier about two boats' length, one of the boys told the cap tain that a steamer was coming, which at that time was not more than four or five boats' length from her. The captain called out to the mate of the otonmer to stop, hut witness was not sure whether she was stopped or not. The master of the steam-boat waved his hand directly he saw the boat, directing her to go to the northward, but the captain said, " Pull away, or we shall catch it," or something to that ef fect, and the boat was pulled straight on, the captain thinking she would get clear of the steamer. Before the boat could get out of the way the steamer struck her on the starboard quarter in a sliding position, and she immediately capsized, when they were all thrown into the water, and the captain was drowned. Mr. William Tanner, shipwright, of Cherry-gar den-stairs, deposed to seeing the accident. The steamer was going at a fast rate, and was decidedly too near the tier on the north shore. Witness saw the boat issue out from the tier while he was in his boat on the Surrey side. It was impossible, as it was, to avoid the collision, but had the steamer been fur ther south, which was her proper course, the accident, most likely, would not have occurred. There could not have been more than ten feet between the steamer and the tier. The captain was standing up in the boat before and after the collision, and until the boat sank, which was about two minutes after she was struck. The bow of the boat struck the captain's face very violently. The speed was not taken off the steamer for more than a minute after she struck the boat. Had the helm been put a little starboard, the steamer could have passed. A number of other witnesses were examined, when the Jury, after deliberating for nearly an hour, re turned a verdict of—Accidental death, with a deodand of 260/. on the steam-boat. The work people are graivally resuming their employment ; but, in a great many instances, fewer have gone in than had turned out. Thu expectation that per tect tranquillity would be restored when labour was re sumed will not be realized. The emeute was created by those who anticipated a reduction of wages, and was extended by the co-operation of vast numbers who were out of _employment. la only a few instances has any advance of wages taken place. while a considerable addi tion has been made to the number of the unemployed. The original causes of apprehension are therefore aggra vatedand while m any are rather than diminished ; uttering their congratulations at the restoration of inter nal peace and good order, we are exposed to new and more dangerous outbreaks.—M, anchester Mies, ' y After some consideration, the Magistrates were of opinion that there was not sufficient evidence to detain the prisoner, who was accordingly liberated. IRELAND. NEW STAMP ACT—BANK OF IRELAND. DUBLIN, SEPT. 11.—We are upon the eve of a change in our fiscal condition, through the Stamp Assimilation Act passed last session, and which will come into operation on the Bth of October next. Whilst the Irish people were felicitating themselves upon their eseape from the Income-tax, the Minister very quietly passed his Stamp Assimilation Act, which introduces a variety of new stamp duties into Ireland, especially upon the transfer of stock of public com panies, and nearly doubles several of the existing duties. A similar measure was attempted by the Duke of Wellington's Administration, in 1840, but they were forced to abandon it, in consequence of the energetic resistance made by all parties here, espe- Cially the Tories, who just then had been in a state Of fury against the Tory Government, owing to the passing of the Roman Catholic Relief Bill. Heretofore the transfer of the shares of public com panies has been free from all taxation in Ireland ; but, after the Bth of October next, an - 1(1, valorem tax must be paid. It is well known that a considerable portion of the capital engaged in trade in this city is advanced by bankers and others, at a moderate rate of interest, .upon the security of shares in public com panies, the transfer—and generally it is a double; transfer—being made without expense. But hereafter this accommodation cannot be obtained without pay ing a very smart tax for it, 2nd the result will be the discontinuance, to a great extent, of this system Of 'ac commodation. Already trade here is in a vei-y wretched condition ; but this new curtailment of ca pital, through the stamp tax on transfers, will sir& it still lower, and many a bankruptcy will be the. con sequence. There is another effect of the New S'inip Bill worth notice, as it .affects the Bank of Ireland. In the Irish Act there is a special exemption in iiivour of Bank of Ireland stock, the result, it is said, of a bar gain with the Government of the day, in its dealings with the Directors. But when the New Stamp Act came over, after being passed so quietly, it was dis-. covered that Bank of Ireland stock was included, as. well as the shares of every other company. Some o f the principal proprietors, thus taken by surprise, li tre obtained the opinions of counsel on the subject, u.s to the exemption in the Irish Act, and remonstrances have been made to the law officers of the Crown at. the Castle; but all in vain. Bank of Ireland stoeL,-, like the shares of all other banks and companies, inty ct pay the tax on transfer. The increase of duty on Irish linen yarn in Fr ance does not vet appear to have seriously affecled the yarn trade in Ulster. The Northern Whig, of yes _ terday, says : "On Thursday last, a Belfast linen yarn-spinner sold to a Leeds house, to be s hi pped to, Leeds, 20,000 bundles of yarn. Irk addition to this gratifying proof of the advantages we enjoy h ere i n the linen trade, we can state, upon authority, that,, taking the manufacturing districts of the north of: England, of Scotland, and of Ireland, the only mirys working full time are those of the Belfast district." THE BANKRUPTCY OF MESSRS . ACRAMAN AND CO. BRISTOL, JUNE 12.—A meeting of the Corr.mis sioners under the above fiat has been held to-s7.ay, at Mr. D. E. Acraman's house, to pass his examiaation that ual p gentle lace m of meetingan's illness prev en ti ng hi m attend the us. Messrs. Acraman, tlolroyd, and Morgan. had been taken to London by their sureties, in an acti ou brought by Mr. Ilinton, with a view to surrendering them to the Queen's Bench. On arriving there the sureties resolved, before surrendering them, to take counsel's opinion, and, being advised that Mr. IL was wrong as to his point of law, and that the liability of the sure ties would not be at all increased by not surrendering the parties, they resolved not to do so, and conse quently the whole, of these gentlemen returned to Bristol. At the, meetino. Mr. Bigg, on the part of some creditors, examineeMr. Morgan as to the trans fer of some goOds to Messrs. Neville and Key nedy. Mr. Morgan stated that the transfer was effected iu January last, and that was some stocks which were held by the firm at Jersey and Deal. Mr. Palmer (the quorum Commissioner)-IVhat was the entire outlay of your Company in premises and machinery ? Mr. Morgan-258,0001. ; the greater portion of which outlay, to the amount of about 200,000/., h a d b een ma d e i n the early part of 1841. Mr. Bigg wou ld suggest to t h e C ourt, t h at w hil e this outlay had been made for plant alone. the whole capital stock of the Company, even in its extended_ state, had been only 135,0001. Mr. Heaven—Yes; but the Court will recol; ee t, that in addition to the capital, there has been a. very large loan account by the Messrs. Acraman to the fiem. exceeding 100,0001. Mr. Bigg—Yes; but finding that 258,0001, has been expended in plant alone out or a capital of 135,0001., I certainly shall not be thought wron g i n saying that it that some thing would have been saved to carry on the bnsiness. might have been expected in answer to further questions, stattlel, He wished to know at what period the stopp?_g e first took place, seeing that 200,0001 . of this Money had loan by the Messrs.

The w arehouses in St. Philip's had bee - that Ai r t . the Royal Mail Company nlanded over to under deed, in Pal. last. Mr. Palmer did not see the of use t .rarsuing this fluther, as the amount expend e d MIT accounted for the insolvent on b 2 buildings, &c. '1 he accounts of the several I s k rupts as to th e joint e s t a t e were then paced,Jan Mr. Palmer, in doing so, s a id, th a t h av i ng required Mr ' Acramall to produce before them an ac g; commencin at a much earlier period than the one he had first produced, he thought it due to that gentleman to say, that he had produced an account front the year 1820, when he came of age and cgm menced business, and that nothing could be flirer than this account. It had been most carefully ex amined by Mr. Jordan, the accountant to the assignees. on their part (not acting hostilely to Mr. Acraman. certainly), but with strict care and scrupulous atten tion to the interests of the creditors, and he had found them to be critically correct ; and he would also fur. ther remark that it had been found to agree precisely with the account previously produced by Mr. Acra man, and beginning at a later period of his business transactions. Mr. Bushell (one o: the assignees) said, if not out of order, he begged to say that an act of justice was done Mr. Aerainan by the Commissioner's remarlas. The meeting was then adjourned.

The Court was crowded, as it -vas understood the present case was but a prelude to many of a similar nature. Mr. John Gent stated that he was in copartnership with David Matthews, grocer. Knew Mr. Richard Denman, of Trinity College, when he obtained his degree of B.A. some years ago. He was a customer cf the firm while in College, which he left four or five years since. He is the son he Lord Denman. Saturday last Mrs. Denman came to the shop and spoke to wit ness, saying, " You don't know me, perhaps ; but von knew my brother, Richard Denman, of Trinity Col lege." Witness replied, " Yes, I knew him, but not you." She then said, "Mr. Richard Denman was a cus tomer of yours," and asked witness to cash a draft from 15/. to 20/. A stamp was procured, and Mrs. Denman wrote a cheque on James Hamilton and Co. for 201., signed Eliza Denman. Upon this witnessgave her 20/. iu money. Witness parted with the money in conse quence of her having stated herself to be the sister of the Hon. Richard Denizian. The cheque was taken to London by Mr. John Matthews, and returned by him this morning, he not being able to get cash for it. I had no means of knowing at the time that her state ment was false. , I afterwards went to Mr Richard Denman's hrother, and he told me he had no sister of that name. A witness who went to London to ascer tain if the drawer of the draft was known, deposed that he presented it at 2, Henrietta -street, Covent garden, and that the money was not paid. The llon. George Denman having been swore said—l am a member of Trinity College, a bachelor. lam a son Of Lord Denman, and brother of Hon. Richard Denman. My brother took his degree ix 1825, and shortly afterwards left the College. Ai m , Denman is not personally known to me, but I d o know the fact that she is not one of my brother Richard's sisters.
