SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. above stated. There was not the slightest ground for such a charge. The prisoner, in defence, merely stated that he had received a wound in the head, and did not know half his time what he was doing. Such must have been the case when he accosted Mr. Webb in the manner stated. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE.—We not long ago called the atten tion of our readers to an indictment then pending against the Rev. W. Lucy, a Dissenting minister residing at Bristol, whom the Tories sought to injure in reputation, as well as personally to annoy, by taking advantage of an ambiguity in the construction that has been put on certain parts of the-Reform and Registration Acts. The case to which we allude came on for trial the other day at the Bristol Assizes, and the result fully bears us out in the opinion we formerly expressed, that the object of the prosecution was purely political, and that the whole affair was got up by the Tories in the hope of weak ening the influence of the • Dissenters, and thus striking a blow at the Liberal cause, which owes so much of its success in Bristol to the body alluded to. The facts of the case are already known, and it is therefore unnecessary to do more than briefly refer to them. The Rev. Wm. Lucy had changed his house since the last regis tration; but he still possessed a qualification to vote, and when asked if he had the same qualifi cation as before, he replied that he had.—an an swer which he was in conscience bound to return, for his qualification continued the same, though it arose from the occupation of different premises. A man who makes five hundred pounds by leav ing his money at interest one year, and realises the like profit by speculating with his capital in the next year, has assuredly the same income during both periols ; and an elector who holds a lease which entitles him to vote, and exchanges it for another which confers on him a similar privilege, does not vary his qualification by a mere change of residence. Whatever may have been the in tention of the Legislature, or the construction of those to whom the interpretation of the law is entrusted, with reference to the point in dis pute, it is quite certain that the Rev. William Lucy was morally bound to give the answer he did to the question that was put to him; for it came nut upon the trial that, being him self doubtful as to the meaning of the Act, he had taken the precaution to con isult those most competent to declare its pur port, and he was advised by them that his qualifi cation was the same after as it had been before his change of residence. If he had said it was not, he would have done wrong ; for the best opinion he was able to get pronounced his quali fication to be unchanged, and he therefore very properly replied that it was, when a question on the point was put to him. It is worthy of re mark that the name of the real prosecutor was pertinaciously withheld, and the indictment was abandoned at a very early stage, though the de fendant's counsel expressed his readiness to waive all technical objections, and to trust to the facts alone for th© complete vindication of the charac ter of his client. This course was, however, not agreeable to the other side, and the indictment was allowed to fall to the ground from a defect in the anonymous prosecutor's evidence. STAN DARD.—The accounts from Man chester and the towns in its immediate vicinity record but little, if any, improvement since our last. At Glossop and Mottram fresh attempts have been made to turn out the various bodies of operatives who had returned to their work, and various outrages of the grossest description appear to have been perpetrated: indeed so long as the quietly disposed are left without protection, and meddling incendiaries from other districts are allowed to collect meet ings with impunity, there is no predict ic, how long the evil may last. It appears that the hands of Mr. Cooper's factory, in the neighbourhood of Glossop, have, for want of proper protection, been not only forced to aban don their work, but have been shamefully mal treated into the bargain. Those belonging to the mill of Mr. Shepley, in that neighbourhood, were attacked by the same parties, but that gen tleman having armed his workpeople,, the as sailants were, with the assistance of a body of special constables, driven off, four of the ring leaders having been captured. Mr. Cooper and his two sons, appear, however, to have been at tacked on their return from giving their deposi tions, and one of them so barbarously beaten as to render his recovery doubtful. It is lamentable to find that, with so powerful a force, civil and military, as is now collected in that neighbourhood, the honest and well-disposed workman cannot resume his employment without risk of his life. At Ashton only one mill is at work. One of the most notorious of the ring leaders in several of the late affrays, a fellow of the name of Phillips, has been appre hended, and the police, devoting their chief attention to leading delinquents, are busily engaged in looking after other parties who have made themselves most prominent iu the late outrages. A complete system of night plunder had been organised in the neighbourhood of Stockport. This is a lament able state of thing,-s, and would lead to the in ference, that notwithstanding all that has been urged on the subject, nothing like an adequate protection is afforded to those well-disposed men who have returned to their duty. In both the cases above referred to had proper protection been given, much outrage and personal injury would have been prevented. At the rate at which the Magistrates in the disturbed districts appear to be going on, the gaols will soon be crowded with prisoners without any sensible effect having hr:en produced on the body at large. Mr. HALL said it was a case for a jury, and fully committed the prisoner to take his trial at the next Old Bailey serrions. MARYLEBONE. Wednesday, Edward Lowrie, a cab-driver, badge No. 5,577, was brought up in custody and placed at the bar before Mr. Rawlinson, charged with having assaulted Inspector Black, police -sergeant Burke, and constable Berry, all of the D division, and a gentle man named 011ivier, residing in New Bond-street, the latter of whom had one of his fingers nearly bitten off by the prisoner. Berry, whose forehead was strapped up with ad hesive plaster, stated, that on the previous evening, between eight and nine o'clock, as he was on duty in Baker-street, near Madame Tussaud's exhibition, he observed the prisoner sitting fast asleep in his cab, and endeavoured to arouse him, but without effect. In spectm Black and Sergeant Burke, were at the time passing along, when the former made a similarly fruitless attempt, and desired witness to get into the cab and drive to the station-home ; he accord ingly took his seat, with the view of complying with the order given, when the prisoner, who had been awoke by the stentorian lungs of a brother whip, suddenly jumped out of the vehicle, and com menced a furious attack upon the inspector and sergeant alluded to, whom he beat and kicked with all his might. He (witness) alighted to afford assistance, leaving the horse and cab in the care of another per son, and he received on the head some blows from the prisoner, who was flourishing about a large stick. He bled very much, and as soon as he was able had the wound which had been inflicted upon him dressed. He (prisoner) was ultimately overpowered and locked up. Inspector Black, who had evidently been very se riously injured, deposed that the prisoner immediately on getting out of the cab gave him a tremendous blow, which knocked him with great force against some iron railings. He shortly afterwards heard Sergeant Burke cry out, " Oh God, he's biting my leg," and on get ting up to assist the sergeant, the prisoner knocked him (witness) down and kicked him violently on the face. He seemed completely mad, and with his metal badge, which he had taken from his neck, kept striking all who came within his reach. The Inspec tor concluded by stating that the medical gentleman who attended him said, that if he had been kicked a little lower down towards .the ear, his jaw would un doubtedly have been broken. Sergeant Burke (who is so lame from the kicks and blows he had received as to be unable to walk without some difficulty) gave evidence which went to establish acts of the most ruffianly violence committed upon him by the prisoner. Mr. 011ivier, the gentleman previously alluded to, said that seeing the attack made upon the police, he went up and laid hold of the prisoner, who got him down upon the pavement and nearly bit off one of his fingers. He was also kicked and much injured by blows. A more violent and desperate man than the prisonei he never beheld. In reply to the charge, the prisoner said that a gentleman had given him some brandy, and he had no recollection of having assaulted any one. He had a wife and family, and he hoped the Magistrate would be as lenient as possible. Mr. RAWLINSON told him that he had conducted himself in so shameful a manner as to call for severe punishment, and for the assault upon Mr. 011ivier fined him 50s. ; in default of payment two months' imprisonment. He was also sentenced to be impri soned for one month for his attack upon the police, the Magistrate at the same time remarking, that he wished he could punish him for the said offence to a gfeater extent, but from a strange inequality in the law he was unable, to do so. The prisoner was then locked up. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. NORTHERN CIRCUIT—York, - August 30. (Before Mr. Justice MAux.E.) Benjamin Bapty was indicted for cutting and wounding Joseph Carlton, at Leeds, on the 11 th of July last, with intent to do him some grievous bodily harm. Mr. Granger and Mr. Wharton for the prosecution. The prisoner was not defended by Counsel. It appeared the prisoner was in a public-house at Leeds, in company with a woman whom he repre sented as his wife. The prosecutor and one John Utley were there also. Utley took up the pint which had been placed on the table by the landlord, and was going to drink, when the prisoner said the pint was his. Utley put it down, and said in that case he did not want to drink it. The prisoner seemed to think Utley meant this as an affront, and some high words took place between the parties. Soon after the prose cutor left the house and was standing on the footpath, opposite the door, when the prisoner came out, and seeing him there, immediately attacked him. They had a short struggle, in the course of which the pro secutor found himself wounded. He had received a wound in the thigh. The effusion of blood was very great, and he was for some time in peril of his life. The prisoner alleged in his defence that Carlton and Utley had treated him very badly, and attacked him in leaving the house. The Jury found him Guilty, and he was sentenced to be imprisoned for twelve months. John Hellawell, William Marsden, and Peter Fox, were indicted for a robbery from the person of Wil liam Smith. Sir G. Lewin and Mr. Meredith for the prosecu tion, Mr. Wilkins for Marsden, and Mr. Pickering for Hellawell. LAW IYTELLIGENCE. BANKRUPTCY COURT, Sept. 1. IN RE MESSRS. WHITE AND LAMBERT. Under the fiat which had been already frequently before the Court, a point was raised on the part of Messrs. Morley and Co., extensive ship-arokers and commission agents, with respect to their right, to prove against the separate estate of Lambert, or against that of the partnership. It appeared the bankrupts had carried on business as whartingers and warehousekeepers, and thata quan tity of goods, belonging to Messrs. Morley, had been consigned to their care, and a verdict subsequently given against them in favour of Messrs. Morley, for some alleged damage the goods had suffered whilst at their wharf. It was contended that previous to the date of this verdict the partnership had been dissolved. —The proof was allowed against the joint estate. Debts to the amount of nearly 7,0001. were proved at this sitting, in SUMS varying from - 1,0001. to 101. It appeared from the statement of the prosecutor, that he was walking in the neighbourhood of Brig house with a young woman, to whom he was paying his addresses, when they met a number of persons, among whom were the prisoners at the bar. The prisoners stopped and asked him for some money to get beer. He refused to give them any, upon which Fox came up; saying, "I'll see if he won't pay," and seizing hold of his coat, nearly tore the skirt off. Hellawell said they should not do that, but they all continued' to press him for some money, and they then said they would throw him into the canal if he did not pay. They marched him down to the bridge, and partly threw him over the rail. He clung to it, however, and one of the party observed that they should not throw him over there as he would fall in the towing path. They took him a little further, and attempted to throw him over again, several of them crying out, " Over with him, over with him." He at last said he would give them some money if they would allow him to come back. They pulled him back over the rail, threw him on the ground, and took six shillings from his pockets. In the scuffle his watch-chain, which, however, was of no value, was torn away. The active party, however, in taking his money, was a person of the name of Kershaw, not yet in custody. It appeared on the cross-examination, that it is usual for persons in that rank of life to levy a toll called pitcher-money, hush-money, or, in some places, the "bullying-groat," on young people caught court ing at late hours. The counsel for the prisoner contended that it was this pitcher-money which the prisoner had asked from the prosecutor. That the pretended attempt to throw him over the bridge was a jest, and that they had no participation in the felony of Kershaw. The Jury found them Not Guilty. IN RE THOMAS AND - .TAMES WEST. The bankrupts in this case had been extensive mercers and drapers. The aggregate amount of debts proved against the estate was 14,7501. After the admission of a few proofs the choice of assignees was proceeded with, when Messrs. Anderton and Leigh were appointed. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (YESTERDAY.) BO W-STREE7. The disgraceful system of extortion, so lately prac ticed by the men Fitzgerald and others, upon people of the highest respectability, must be fresh in the memory of all our readers ; and the facts which came out upon the evidence at the examination of the pri soners at Bow-street and Marlborough-street, and their subsequent trial at the Old Bailey, left little doubt in the minds of the police and others conversant with such matters, that the Fitzgeralds were not the only people who had practised such a shameless and disgraceful system of extortion. This morning a well-dressed man. apparently about 3.5 years of age, who gave the name of Thomas Addy, but whose real name is believed to be Robert Hyde Eddy, was placed at the bar under the following cir cumstances : Mr. Henry Bellamy Webb, of 31, Great Queen" street, Lincoln's Inn-fields, stated that on Saturday, the 20th ult., as he was proceeding along Hemming 8- row, on his way home, he was met by the prisoner, who accosted him with " A fine night, Sir" or some thing o f th a t sort. Witness shortly replied that it was. The prisoner made one or two other common place observations, to which witness, being not at all desirous of his company, replied very briefly. At length, on arriving at Castle-street, Leicester-square, as the prisoner still kept close to him, witness turned round to him, and said "I don't know what you mean, I don't wan t anyth i ng to say to you, why don't you go away about your business ?" The prisoner made no reply, and witness thought he was gone, but on reaching New -street, Covent-garden, witness observed the prisoner still at his heels. Witness took no notice however, but pursued his way towards the Piazzas, near Covent garden Market. When he arrived there the prisoner cams alonpide of him, and accosted with "D------ your eyes, what are you going to give me." Witness asked him what he meant, when he said "D— -you, if you. don't give me some money I'll charge you with an unnatural offence ;" and a poldeman happen ing to come up at the time the prisoner gave witness into cuitody, and he was taken to the station-house where he remained till the Monday morning follow- Oa Monday he was brought up before the Magistrate, hut the prisoner, deterred no doubt by the rigorous proceedings, which in the meantime had commenced against some of his associates, did not appear to prefer his charge. Witness was in conse-* quence discharged without the case being entered into. Witness then proceeded to the Old Bailey, where the Grand Jury were sitting, and preferred an indictment against the prisoner for feloniously as saulting witness with intent to rob him, and th e pe l- ner not appearing to answer the indictment, a war- IllerSMajfE ued for his apprehension, and placed in the nspector Plume, of the C divisio n , un d er 4* ant the prisoner was apprehended last ni g ht in tle-street.

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. TlMES.—Allusion was made, a very short time back, under this head, to the discouraging situation of the various projects connected with steam naviga tion across the Atlantic, since when they appear to be hastening at an accelerated pace towards final aban donment and ruin. The refitting, of the ominous " ten-gun " brigs by the Admiralty is talked of, to supply the place of the steam-vessels of the West In dia Packet Company ; the Great Western Steam ship Company, trading between Bristol and New York, are stated publicly to be in such pecuniary difficulty as to be compelled to bring the whole con• cern to an early close ; and the North American Mail Company, the only party now left to prosecute the enterprise of steam communication with America, are appealing to Government and to the trading interest to afford them a more efficient support, without which they must also throw up their contract, and that rapid and safe mode of intercourse be finally re linquished. It will be quite apparent from the previous :history of the last-named company, that they must ;form the chief dependence of the two countries in this respect, and that if they cannot succeed none can. It is stated to be composed of about 30 proprietors only, and to differ from joint-stock concerns generally in confiding the whole management to two individuals, Mr. G. Burns, of Glasgow, and Mr. David M'lver, of Liver pool, who are the individuals recognised by Govern ment as the contractors. Though usually termed "Cunard's line," after Mr. Cunard, of Halifax, that gentleman is only one of the general proprietors. On the 4th of July, 1840, they commenced the first voyage of the contract service of carrying the American mails, for which the Government was under agree ment to pay 60,0001. per annum, but within nine months the managing partners made the mortifying discovery that the undertaking was a losing one, and that the whole capital they had em barked in it must be sacrificed unless they could obtain some further assistance from Go vernment. On the representations they made, a rehearing of the case was permitted, and after a most rigid investigation into their affairs, in the course of which it was proved, though they carried a great number of passengers and light cargo besides, that their receipts could not cover the expenditure, an addition of 20 , 0001 . a year was conse quently made to their allowance from the Govern ment. With this advantage, they were encouraged to struggle on since that period with this undertaking, but still find, with their large capital of 300,0001., and the intelligence and industry brought to bear on its employment, that it returns no profit. These statements are denied, it should be observed, from a publication at Liverpool, apparently under the influ ence of the parties engaged in this undertaking, but there is no reason for believing that it has given an untrue or an exaggerated account of their situation, which, if they did, would be easily exposed, and re act upon themselves, and hence it may be admitted that the manner in which their appeal is to be dis posed of has become a public question. After making this admission, however, the mode of dealing with it is by no means rendered so clear by the parties themselves as it ought to be in such a case. They advert vaguely to possible attempts at competi tion with them, based upon the wreck of other under takings, and seek, perhaps too eagerly, to establish what ought to be self-evident, after the experience acquired under their own contract, that no under taking for steam conveyance across the Atlantic can succeed, unless united with the service of the Government in the transport of the mails. Any department of the Government, to which in regular course their appeal ought to be made in a direct manner, would require some better guide, and demand of the complainants not only an exposition of the grievances under which they labour, but some specific suggestions of such a remedy as they themselves feel to be applicable to their situa tion. If the terms of their contract are still too low, let them state, what ought to be a matter of no difficulty after the long experience they have gained, what terms they do require to work the contract with that advantage to themselves to which they are honourably entitled, and the question would then speedily be brought to some issue. The Government cannot, and the public will not, through indolence and inattention to such matters generally, do anything to keep off that rivalry which the North American Mail Company seem to dread, and which, if their position is a sound one, they ought as little to apprehend as the Bank of England or the East India Company the puny attempts of any petty trading Corporation. The contract with this Company has been im pugned on the ground that it is a monopoly, and bad in principle, -and that the management of such an undertaking should devolve upon the Government itself, at whatever loss, as one means, among others, of gradually creating an efficient steam naval force ; but we should prefer leaving this in private hands to those of the Admiralty or any other public de partment. The dangerous and laborious service in which they are to be employed secures a supply of vessels of the best class and upon the best principles ; and therefore, leaving all other advantages out of the question, we should be glad, not only to see the North American Company secured in permanence to the public service, but an attempt made to re organize on better principles, and under more prudent Management, that West India Company of which the ruin is pronounced to be all but certain. To return to the old vicious system of the West India packets and ten-gun brigs is a misfortune ; to recede from the great project for a communication by steam with America, so long successfully worked, and to the fu ture success of which the want of money is the only impediment, is a national disgrace. Future improve ments in this navigation may render that profitable hereafter which is not so at present ; but if the chain is once broken, any attempts of that kind will be without a motive. However eligible the Southampton dock may be for the landing of the East and West India mails, the dissension which was exhihited between the di rectors and some of the shareholders at the half yearly meeting held to-day at the Company's offices is, to say the least of it, discouraging to its complete success. There appears to be that want of co operation and cordiality between the executive and constituency which, if persevered in, cannot fail to damage the undertaking in the public estimation, since, while on the one hand captiousness is shown to the objections which two or three of the shareholders make to the proceedings or the manner in which the business of the Company has been conducted, it can scarcely be expected, on the other, that con cession will be made in order to secure that unanimity on general matters which is at all times essential to the well-being of any public under taking. According to the Report which was read to the shareholders, there is every reason to believe that the docks are in that state of forwardness which will admit of their being opened at an early period for the reception of vessels, and hardly a doubt can exist, should the directors be able to pacify those shareholders who are clamorous against past proceedings, but that the undertaking will ultimately gain a revenue of some consequence. The introduction of the interest of the Peninsular and Oriental Steam-packet Company is reckoned on as increasing in public favour the pretensions these docks have for support ; and as this is the case, it seems to be fully imagined that the packet-station, when once established at the port, will bring a vast accession of other trade. The Report, on the whole, was certainly considered satisfactory ; but the great complaint alleged against the management of the Com pany is, that the expense of the construction of the docks, as far as they have already gone, has doubled the estimate, which was put in for the completion of the whole undertaking. It was pointedly remarked at this meeting, as well as at the Blackwall Railway meeting yesterday, that it was much to be regretted that some legislative enactment does not provide for the levy of pains and penalties on engineers who fur nish such delusive statements. GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY COMPANY. The thirteenth half-yearly meeting of this Com pany was held in their office in Northgate, in Dar lington, on Tuesday last, the 30th instant, G. H. Wilkinson, Esq., in the chair. The Report of the Directors was agreed to, recom mending a dividend of 11. ss. per share for the half-year ending June 30, 1842, being after the rate of 21 per cent. per annum. From the half-yearly statement of account it appears the Company's re ceipts have been 33,5431. 10s. 6d., making with the reserve fund of 4,2681. 13s. sd. the sum of 37,8121. 3s. 11d., and that the disbursements of the Company . have been 21,0401. 13. 9d., leaving a balance available for dividends 13,7721. 2s. 2d., out of which the Com pany will pay 1/. ss. per share, as stated above, exclusive of the income tax. It ought to be men tioned that only three months' maintenance of way is included in the disbursements, it having been agreed, at a previous meeting of the Company, that the expenses of maintaining the way for one year from the opening should be debited to the capital account. The following is a portion of the Report : " The Directors have to report that since the last meeting of the Proprietors, the Royal Assent has been given to an Act of Parliament, authorising the entire abandonment of that portion of .the Great North of England Railway situated between Shincliffe West House and Newcastle. The Company is thus relieved from the very heavy responsibility of having to at tempt the execution of works of great cost and unusual magnitude. The sanction of the Legislature has also been obtained to the plan, already submitted to the Proprietors, of forming a Railway to Newcastle, by means of a Company on whose Shares a fixed divi dend of six per cent. is guaranteed for ten years by the various Railway Companies interested in the mea sure. The shares in the new Company have been all taken up, and the ground staked out, and in part purchased. " During the last half-year, almost the whole of the Company's engagements for materials and contract work have been discharged, and the contracts closed, with the exception of two, which are expected to be shortly settled. The only works of any consequence remaining, are the bridges at Darlington Bank-top and Haughton-lane, which will be commenced im mediately. " The Directors observe with satisfaction, that in coal, merchandise, lime, and fish, and in the locaA traffic generally, there is a progressive increase; at the same time, they cannot avoid the expression of their disappointment, that the general revenue is below what, judging from the experience of all other lines, they conceived they were warranted in anticipating. " In drawing a comparison with the receipts of last half-year, it will be remembered that the first half of the year is invariably less productive than the latter half. The number of passengers conveyed during the last six months has been—rfirst class, 14,833; second class, 25,486 ; third class, 37,620 ; making in all, 77,939." WOOLWICH—WEDNESDAY. INCOME-TAX. MEMORANDUM. The following letter from Messrs. Cox and Co., with one to them from the Hon.

" Gentlemen,—l am directed to communicate to you the following orders, which the Board, at the suggestion of the Ordnance Commissioners of the Property and Income-tax, have been pleased to give, with a view to facilitate the assessment and collection of the tax in this department, viz. : " The Board desire that you will stop the sum of 7d. in the pound on account of the Property-tax from all sums paid by the Ordnance through your agency, to the officers of the Royal Artillery, Royal Engineers, and Royal Sappers and Miners, except the following allowances, viz. — mess allowance , forage allowance, travelling allowances, marching money, allowance to captains of companies, for repairs of arms, &c.

" That the said deduction of 7d. in the pound be made from every issue on account of the military pay, allowances (except those before-mentioned), and emo luments of each officer, whether the aggregate annual amount of his annual income be less than 1501. or not ; and should any officer claim to be exempted from the tax on his military pay, &c., on the ground that the aggregate annual amount of his income is less than 150/., and is wholly derived from such pay, &c., such officer is to transmit to the Ordnance-office a notice and declaration, if he be in Great Britain or an affidavit if he be in Ireland, or abroad, accord ing to one of the accompanying forms, as the case may be, for the decision of the Commissioners of Property-tax, and if the claim to such exemption shall be admitted, the amount of tax stopped and deducted will be repaid to the officer. " But if an officer's whole income, being less than 1501. a year, be derived partly from his military pay, &c., and partly from any other source, his claim for exemption, if he be in Great Britain, must be made to the Commissioners of the Civil District, in which he is stationed or residing, upon a form which may be e)tained from the assessor of the parish, and the cer tificate of exemption of such Commissioners is to be transmitted to the office of Stamps and Taxes, Somer set House, London, in order that the assessment on the officer's military pay, &c., may be discharged. " If the officer so claiming exemption be in Ireland or abroad, he is to transmit on affidavit of the fact of his income from every source being under 1501. per year, to the Ordnance-office, as before directed in the case of his income being wholly derived from his pay and military allowances. "I am in conclusion, to signify the Board's further desire that you will stop the arrears due from the 6th of April last inclusive, from the next issue of pay, to the said officers of the Ordnance Military Corps, Medical and Field Train department, as well as the amount of the tax on that issue.

ROUGISSEDGE and SUMMERS have hitherto relied on the discernment of the public to discover and appreciate the superior quality of the Arated Water produced by their manufactory, and they have scorned to have re course to any tricks. In the present day some persons consider it requisite to make use of puffs and quackery in order to extend the sale of their own productions by detracting from the merits of rival establishments. R. and S. have such strong grounds of reliance on the supe riority of their own soda water and lemonade, founded on the recommendation of the most eminent of the faculty, on the results of th e most searching chemical a nalyses, and the extensi ve an d still increasing demand for them by the public, both at home and abroad, that they have hitherto treated the insinuations of quackery alluded to with the contempt they deserve. But if these indirect insinuations are still to be obtruded on the public, R. and S. feel themselves justified in offering those explanations that' may enable the public to judge for themselves. If R. and S. have placed the name of Schweppe upon their bottles, it was never to mislead the public as to connexion with that firm, but for the purpose of announcing a legitimate fact, and always subordinate to their own. Without im puting undue credit to the name of Schweppe, they have simply stated that they came from the house of Schweppe and Co.,—an undoubted f ac t, or doubtless it would have been denied. For five and twenty years, during the very period that the waters sold by Schweppe gave to that name all the celebrity it ever obtained, Mr. Summers was the engineer and manufacturer of the waters sold by that house in London, Derby, and Bristol. It is many years since any person, having the slightest connexion with the name or family of the late Mr. Schweppe, has been connected with any house in the trade. In the year 1834, the proprietor of the busi ness carried on und er t h e name of Schweppe and Co. sold his interest to persons with whom R. and S. declined to remain : they preferred employing their in dustry and practical knowledge in establishing a business for their own mutual profit. Whether the waters since manufactured by the present firm of Schweppe and Co. retain the quality which acquired for that house all its celebrity, R. and S. d ec li ne to give an opinion ; but, in justice to themselves, they do, with the most perfect con fidence and good faith, say that —highly as some ma nufacturers seem to estimate the bottles which bear their name (expensive an item as bottles are), and diffi cult as it is to prevent retail tradesmen from returning wrong ones—there is no bottle bearing any other than their own, however celebrated, to which Roughsodge and Summers would wish to add the reputation to be derived from filling them with waters of their own manufactory. ROUGHSEDOE and SUMMERS only desire such patronage as may bedeserved from the gated Waters produced at thew own manlffactom and sold under -the labels of their own name.-37, Bridge-street, Bristol.

C The Consol Market has declined to-day about one quarter per cent., some sales effected, it is suppos e d, on account of the Scotch banks, having brought for ward more stock than was required to meet the de mand of the jobbers. It must also be home in mind that the late advance, which is on all hands admitted to have been rapid, will probably have shown persons in the character of realizers who would otherwise have continued supporters of prices. Money has not increased beyond the rate of 1 to 2, although the half-monthly settlement in the Foreign market took place. Lye Hull In Sunda' FROM BIRMINGHAM TO LI VERPOOL & MANCHESTER. RESERVE OF WILKIE.—Of his reserve we recollect a story highly characteristic of the man. One day, when asking a frank from his kiud friend the late Lord Hol land, his Lordship waited some time, with the pen in his hand, for Wilkie to give the name and address he wished to have inscribed upon the cover. " Whom to, Mr. Wilkie ?" said his Lordship, smilingly. " Oh," said Wilkie, with his usual reserve, " My Lord it's just—my Lord—it's just a lady !" Lord Holland laughed, Wilkie still hesitated ; but, recollecting himself, became in another moment properly communicative upon so small a matter.—Fruscr for September. EGYPTIAN WIIEAT.—Last year the Marquis of Bristol gave to Mr. Mitchell, a gardener of Kemp-town, several ears of corn found upon opening an Egyptian mummy, supposed to be two thousand years old. At the proper season the grain was sown, and has been cultivated by Mr. Mitchell with great care. It has pro duced very fine ears of corn, some of them nine inches in length, but the grain is much lighter than the common wheat. Mr. Mitchell has saved the crop to make fur ther experiments next year. The General Steam Navigation Company's steam ship, Wilberforce, Captain Stranack, arrived from Ant werp at the Brunswick Wharf, Blackwall, yesterday morn ing, at nine. In conse quence of thick weather, her passage occupied nineteen hours and a half, being one hour and a half after her usual time. She brings Belgian papers of Wednesday.
