The orders were obeyed, and the wig and sword delivered to the French valet. "Now take o'if the coat." Mr. Cripps complied, with a sigh "IN"ow the waistcoat." The order was obeyed. " Now the cravat." And it yas taken off. " Now/the diamond buckles." " Anything else ?" inquired Mr. Cripps, as he gave up the buckles. " Recollect there are ladies in the room, sir." "Yes ; take yourself off," rejoined the beau. Even thus shorn of his splendour, Mr. Cripps main tained his customary assurance. He bowed profoundly and gracefully round, and quitted the room, amid the laughter of the company. " The Garden" is a defence of the old stately style of English gardening, and does credit to Mr. Oilier's taste. The " Franciscan's Cure" is a poem that would be witty if it could, but no where rises above smartness. Some of the lines halt and limp, like an old man on crutches. " The One Thing Needful" is an illustration of i.he well-known fact, that nothing is to be done u England without a dinner. A good dinner— . 3 :Lord Stowell used wittily to remark—" labri• rates business," mellows the temper, and triooths down all the rough edges of character. ill our most popular and successful writers are dinner-givers, and this we conceive -to be one of the chief secrets of their success. The sour, vinegar, hatchet face of criticism relaxes won derfully over a smoking haunch; and assumes the sweetest and blandest expression possible, when placed in close contiguity with the Cham pagne and Burgundy. Let him who wishes to stand well with society—to get fees from pa tients--briefs from attorneys—soft words from reviewers—and smiles' and civilities from all classes—keep a good cook, and never grudge three courses to his guests?. We protest we know of nu other way to get on, except by a judicious :system of swindling, earned on under the , plausible semblance of business. The " Clare Fox-hunter" is an amusing description —free from the besetting vice of most Irish sketches of character—of a fine, jovial, intelli gent, sporting Patlander. " The Picture-hunter" is one of the raciest portraits its author has yet drawn. The humour is rich, yet delicate, just hovering on the borders of the fantastic, without overstepping propriety. " Windsor Castle" shows a very fair acquaintance with the domestic his tory of the period of which it treats ; and is ably illustrated by Tony Johannot. TAIT'S MAGAZINE. The Queen's visit to Scotland, which; some two or three weeks ago, set so many newspaper pens at work, has furnished a writer in the Number before us with an excellent theme for the exer cise of his descriptive faculties; and, accordingly, he gives several graphic sketches of the gay, bustling, arid picturesque appearance presented by Edinburgh, during the brief period that her Majesty resided in its isainediate vicinity. His account of the blunders and disappointments of the Lord Provost and the Town Council, on the morning of the Queen's arrival, is specially amusing; but we could have dispensed with his poetic description of the " Gathering," for it is a mere vapid, servile imitation of Mr. Macaulay's " Armada," one of the finest descriptive poems in the language. We subjoin the account of her Majesty's early and unexpected arrival in the Scottish metropolis : The Royal body-guard had reached Howard place on their way to Granton,_ when they were me t by a troop of dragoons, in the centre of whom was an open carriage, with her Majesty and P r i nce Albert. On dashed the Toxophilites to claim their post of honour. Heedless of their claims, and doubt ful of the intentions of such a strange-looking body, the dragoons received their charge manfully, and plume and quiver gave way before helmet and sabre. Many a gallant squire was rolled over in the mud, and by the time the Royal body-guard were recog nised by the officers of dragoons, and had their claims allowed, the corps was in utter confusion, and glad to follow the Roy il carriage as best they might. On it went at a quick trot. The barriers were reached. Where is now the Provost with city keys, and courtly speech P—and echo answered—ln the Council Chamber ! The gates would not close, and her Ma jesty would not wait. Forward went the Royal ba rouche.- The glitter of„ths soldiers' helmets, as they stormed the barriers, proclaimed to the crowds that filled the. windows of Pitt-street and Dundas-street, that the Queen was at hand. The cry spread through all the avenues of the city, and people flew from street to street, as from before a pursuing foe. Breathless with surprise, the multitudes saw the carriage pass. Those in the windows could not see her Majesty for very amazement, and those in the streets had enough ton do to get out of the way of the crowd that swept onwards with the Royal carriage. Still along the line theeO rose a deafening shout that pealed along from house to house, as the pink bonnet of her Ma jesty- was recognised; and hats and handkerchiefs in -nunteraMe fluttered from every window. The streets NVC'e like a billowy sea. Contusion worse confounded prevailed on every side. Carriages, drove furiously ulonghy cross streets to overtake the cortege at some .: distant turning, pursued by multitudes on foot, run ning as if f o r lif e . The - Royal carriage moved on wards at a quick trot, and the body-guard, panting like 4riven deer, toiled after it in vain: One by one, some archer, fatter than the rest, dropped off, and might be seen calling wildly for ginger-beer or lemonade in a neighbouring restaurateur s. Every where the people were taken by surprise. The Celtic Society, who had mustered at the Royal Hotel in Prince's-street, and were to have escorted the Royal train from the barriers, had barely time to rush out into the street, and with buttered roll in one hand, and claymore in the other, to salute it as it passed. Some were even unable to accomplish this, and one enthusiastic Celt was seen l ean i ng over a bed-room window of the hotel, with one-half of his chin covered with lather, and waving a razor with loud and exult ing cheers. The crowd that pressed onwards with the Royal carriage had by this time become a mob, which it would have required a stronger force than the Royal Archers to keep at bay. I hear that they pressed so close upon the carriage that they were even able to accost her Majesty. If so, I presume she was regaled with such expressions of Scottish loyalty as, I hope yer Majesty's Dane the waur o' the fleg that chiel Oxford , gae ye!" Gin I had M e i s t er F ranc i s b y t h e scruff o the neck, my sang, if I wadna gar his haffets dirll" Ye'll hae been sick for a chance : them east winds maks an nnco potch in the water." An' hoo's the hits of bairns P' &c. &c. &c.; a species of conver sation that must have made her Majesty doubt whe ther the Scotch populace did not speak some foreign language." Sir Robert Peel, the writer assures us, was cor dially received by the Edinburgh folks —possibly because the operation of the Income-tax is some what limited there—and he " received these tri butes with a smiling bonhomntie that told well, surrendering his hands to the shake of numbers of the great unwashed, with a disregard of dirt highly politic, but which, considering the na tional cutaneous irritability, must have required no ' common fortitude." We agree with the writer, that this was an instance of great moral courage on the part of the Tory Premier. The " Life of Viscount Keppel" is an impartial re view of a work lately published under this title. Admiral Keppel was a man whose biography was scarcely worth writing, for though an experienced commander, lie achieved no very brilliant tri umphs, and would have been long since forgot ten, had it not been for the eloquent, but exagge rated panegyric cif Burke, Ilith whom he usually sided in Politics. "Fashinable Senators" is a spirited and sarcastic attack on those " boy . cmbers wh o are placed in Parliament by their Noble relatives, sort preparatory school to the Eton of the Upper per House." The writer justly remarks chorust of the form that he 4i awkward squad," • or House," and that they are a s er i ous drawback on the march and respectability of public business." " Sports of the Saints" shows, orthodox: Parson went out shooting * rhyme, how an ooting one day, and how a Methodist Preacher consignedßilly' him to the devil in consequence. lifeiericlan" is a characteristic sketch of College in . Dublin, in the course of which occur one or two reminis cences of the late Rev. Charles Wolfe, whom impudent Scotch schoolmaster attempted than his Ode o n e other day to defraud of the fame of Sir John Moore's Burial, by coolly asserting that ho had written it himself! _ Luton, DUBLIN TIAVIVERSIT.Y,3I44GAZN _,. The military reminiscences "i• . "Jack the Gu ar d sman ," are here continued by Mr. Leer, with a liveliness and vigour that as yet cyanptoins of ex exhibit not the slightest , * haustion. No writer of the d ay— w ith the exception; perhaps, of Mr: IVlaxwell—throws *X the light, dashing,- ad captundum mi litary tale w i th so . much ease and rea diness as this gentleman. His pen seems ever prepared f or active service, and his high animal spirits carry hi m triumphantly through whatever task he takes in hand. Yet thou- •h social, buoyant, unaffected humour is his forte;: there is no want of earnestness and sensibility in; his writings, and occasionally, though not often, he strikes a deep chord of feeling. a In his present chapters, he narrates the particulars of the d isastrous retreat from Burgos with considerable pi ctures pie effect, and with a minuteness of det iil mat would almost lead us to infer that he was hitnself a sharer in the horrors he d escribes. "An Hour's Talk about Izaac Walton" chime s in with the popular opinion of th is o verrat e d wr i ter, who, because he has penned' orte or two pas- f sages studded with pleasing pastoral images, ' Mr. Churten's Cinderella, 5 yrs drawn from his familiar acquaintance with the Four others meadows near the Goat and Boots at Tottenham, has set all the lovers of the rural raving about the " heavenly innocence," " simplicity," " un worldliness," &c., &c., of his " Angler's Guide." There is infinite cant in this admiration of a very ordinary writer; and we doubt much whether, of those who hold him in such reverence, one half have ever read his works, or•are at all aware how much quiet, worldly shrewdness he concealed under his meek, unsophisticated demeanour. " A Narrative of the Affghan War" is by the late Colonel Dennie, who fell in that murderous campaign, gallantly fighting at the head of his beleaguered regiment. The narrative is curious, as forming a correct index to the personal pecu liarities of the writer, who, unconsciously, gives us an insight into his inmost nature, both as a man and a soldier. His description—which we subjoin—of the march to Caubul in 1839, will zive the reader a pretty correct idea of the her culean difficulties overcome by the British sol diers during that long and fatiguing expedition : At length, after a march of ten months, behold us safely arrived at this far-famedcapital of the Affghans. We moved from Kurnaul early in November; and this circuitous and dreadfully lengthened route has— thank God !—at last terminated. Man and beast are fairly worn out. We have traversed great part of the line of the Indus, upper and lower Scinde, scaled precipitous mountains, forced desperate and difficult passes, crossed boundless wastes, howling wildernesses, endured the most intense heat—the thermometer at 140 degrees in the sun—suffered equal varieties, and extremes of cold at n i g ht, h a d nou°ht to cool our burning tongues but b rac ki s h and filthy water, and that most scanty at best of times, and often not pro curable at all. . . . Our losses in animals and property have been fearful ; no less than thirteen of my own camels have perished, or been carried off by. the different tribes of marauders through whose country we have passed ; and who, although they never ven tured upon an open attack, yet hung upon our flanks, or plundered our baggage, and murdered our defence less followers, or parties they found too weak to op pose them ; well armed, well mounted, and being in considerable numbers, they inflicted serious mischief on us ; harassed our weary infantry, • and laughed at our cavalry, whose horses were quite unable to follow them, or almost to drag through their daily march; in fact, the greater part are dismounted. We have now seen all of these horrid countries of Beloochistan, Scinde, &c., and more inhospitable soils and climates cannot be imagined, or more unfit for animal life. In credible as it may seem, it is nevertheless true, that for days, weeks, and months we have travelled over as unbroken surface of sand ; at other times of rock or stone ; again of a long dreary line of a hundred miles of thorns and thistles ; not a town or village, not a bird or beast to relieve this dreadful solitude. Our route across these dreary plains will never be for- gotten : they are skirted by chains of mountains—the residence of our friends the Cossacks I before alluded to ; and those bands of predatory cavalry bear the same name as with their kindred tribes among the Russians; indeed the name is common through the East, but whether Tartar, Persian, or Arabic, I have not learned. One thing we have satisfied ourselves of, viz.—that no INVADING ARMY—be it Russian or Per sian, or of any other nation—could ever take the line we have moved along on its road to India. It has cost the Government no doubt a serious sum to purchase this information. METROPOLITAN MAGAZINE. Notwithstanding the generally prevalent taste for light reading, we think that this periodical would he more popular than it is, if it contained, from time to time, a •little more of what Mas singer's " Justice Greedy" would call—.the " substantials." A sound literary paper, whe ther in the shape of essay, criticism, or historiette, seldom appears in its pages, which are almost ex clusively occupied with slight, sketchy, and not unfrequently flimsy, prose lales. These are all well enough in their way, and there is an unques tionable demand for them on the part of Ma gazine readers; but the Editor should bear in mind that enough is as good as a feast, and vary his entertainment now and. then, if only by way of novelty. Verbum sap. " Savindroop" is a carefully written story, whose scene is laid in the _East. The author, a gentleman named Rafter, has taken evident pains to be as accurate as pos sible as regards costume, scenery, manners, &c., and this imparts an interest to his narrative which it would not otherwise possess; for it does not exhibit much power of invention, nor are the incidents, though wrought up with tact and spirit, particularly remarkable for novelty. Oc casional notes are added which explain certain local allusions in the text, and are of great assist ance to. Abe- reader. " Recollections of a Royalist ,Officer" are chiefly taken up with de scriptions of the scenery of the Loire, and the customs and peculiarities of the peasantry in that still unsophisticated quarter of France. In hunting about for a poetical extract, we can find nothing better than the following pretty lines by Mrs. Abdy, entitled the " Ruined Church :" Beneath thv roof, no eager throng List to Salvation's word; It only echoes to the song Of the wild forest bird; Around thy doors a mournful wreath Of shrouding ivy falls, And flowers a fleeting fragrance breathe Amid thy crumbling walls. I never grieve at the decline Of palaces and towers, Where dames and knights were wont to shine In gay and festal hours ; The waving plumes, the gems of pride, The dance, the banquet rare, — These o'er my fancy lightly glide, But do not linger there. Yet when thy ruined walls I view, How easy it appears Each peaceful image to renew Of long departed years ! Thy silvery bells are heard around, As once they used to be, Filling the soft air with the sound Of Sabbath melody. The villagers pursue their way Along the primrose glade ; The lisping child, the patriarch • The matron and the maid ; They enter at the open door, They meekly take their place, And God's assistance they implore, To bless the words of grace. Long years have passed—that rustic train Now lie in Death's cold thrall, And few, or none, perchance, remain To sorrow for thy fall ; Yet are the truths of little worth They heard and treasured here ? No, no—they raised their souls from earth To reach a holier sphere. And I am wrong to gaze in gloom Upon thy dull decay, Knowing thou art no common dome To pass with time away And though to thee it be not given Through future years to last, The spirits of the just in Heaven Bear witness of the past.

FROM. THE EVENING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. .GLOBE.—The TVestminster Review has a Postcript, taking curiously wavering views of the Corn-laws, and demonstrating nothing, as it ap pears to us, but that disposition to find fault with both parties, which is apt to make those who in dulge it contradict themselves as impartially as others. We are sorry to have to citicise this tail to our trimestrial friend's pertbrinances; as the Review contains a very good article on the Corn laws, as -connected with the late disturbance:, which we are led by the initials subscribed to it to affiliate on Mr. W. R. Greg. The Postscriber to the WestminsterisdisposeSto think the new Corn law worse, and Lord John Russell's pro ject, no better than the old Corn-law. His reasons fbr arriving at these conclusions seem to us very indifferent. It is no business of ours to take up the cudgels for the Peel Corn-law; and the Russell project was rashly shelved by those who may not have so good an offer again. It is not the Reviewer's practical conclusions that we care so much to question, as his want ofperc ep tion, as it appears to us, of the principles which must govern all reasoning on the sub ject. The Reviewer spends much good indigna tion on the fact of the revenue having gained a million from corn this year; and appears to infer that the consumer has therefbre• been taxed more highly fbr his food than he was last year, when so much of the supply came in at the one shilling duty ; and. considerably less than half the contribution of this year came to the trea sury. With this notion in the Reviewer's mind, it is not wonderful that he thinks no improve ment would have been made by the substitution of an Bs. duty for the scale of the old law. But is this notion a correct one? Is there com mon sense in regarding the shilling duty as all that the consumer paid last year beyond the natural price ? Is it allowable to conclude that all the revenue gains this year is so much out of the pockets of the consumer, owing to the new law ? We do not enter on the question whether any duty on food is desirable. The answer to it must depend on whether there is such a weight of taxation in this country, pressing upon the cultivator of the soil, as to en title him to be placed on an equal position with his foreign, competitor by extending taxation to imports from the latter. That is a question we do not now undertake to answer. But it is an other question, whether the domestic cultivator is entitled to more than this. The sliding-scale is meant to answer that question practically in the affirmative. It is meant to do more than lay equal weights on foreign imports on home pro duction. It is meant to do more than counter balance the assumed disadvantage of the home cultivatOr. It is meant not to place competition on fair terms, but to baffle and exclude it, as fin as possible.• It is intended to prevent the corn trade being carried on as a regular branch of commerce. The fixed duty is intended, and cal culated, to make the corn trade as open as any other. - STANDARD.--The Leaguers have derived this advantage from the attitude of hostility to all the interests of the country not directly con nected with themselves, which they have as sumed—the advantage that all animadversion upon . their system and practice assumes the character of mere recrimination. If for the sake of the labouring classes we prosecute an inquiry into the treatment of labourers in manufactures, as well as other labourers, we are accordingly met with the reproach that we are anti-manu facturers, enemies to machinery, blasphemers of the sacred principle of the economists, that " the affitirs of commerce must be left to regulate themselves." We are not, however, anti manufacturers, or enemies to machinery and, if we impugn the principle that commerce consecrates whatever it touches, we might ask the manufacturers of Birmingham, Manchester, arid Glasgow, at this moment, whether they are quite satisfied that the Stab , shall take no notice of the American Tariff, but leave the thing to adjust itself? The truth is, that between the et ateeiri)dsfallacious ,oiNlnvua tiabsolutely ylater tc.ti princip le between nationqu t ed a can and never cination, be admitted, or e tlTe a r n n , ero w y it o h r ou th t e placing strong; a tl t i o e what the consequence must be every one is able to judge fbr himself. Uncontrolled power in the hands of human beings is sure to be abused. The Christian is sensible of this, from the knowledge of " man's heart;" but it is not known to the Christian only—the wisest of Pagans and Infidels have arrived at the same conclusion. Aristotle says, that a man will he unjust in nine .cases out of ten when he has the opportunity ; ar d David Hume confesses, that in legislating for mankind it is necessary to assume that . all will be rogues and villains if the license to be such is allowed to them. If, then, we show from evi dence not to be disputed that the master manu facturers have the power to act with cruelty and injustice to their labourers, and have at the same time a motive for acting so, let us not be charged with enmity to those persons, even though their conduct in other respects might seem to justify resentment. We merely point to a case of the operation of the evil principle in our common na ture— a" cases ornissus" in our legislation. Re garding the evidence given before Mr. Ferrand's Committee in this light, the inquiry is relieved at once of the odium of personal or party war :are; and it is cleared, too, of the perplex ity in which it has been involved by introduc ing the consideration of the truck system in the island of Portland and in the agricultural districts. Let the question be, have the labourerS in manuflictures sufficient protection against that cupidity on the part of their employers, which cupidity is a common fault with all men in a condition to indulge it? and, on the one part, the non millowners will not be made the object of any specialcensure; einthe on the manu facturing districts, will only add further light to the subject: for if protected, as they are in some agricultural other,or the other oppressions degree by the employer's apprehensions of an increase of poor-rates, even under the present wretched poor-law, and by the usage if not law, of annual hiring in husbandry, the agricultural labourers are still in need of further defence against the rapacity of their employers, how much worse must be the condition of the la bourers in manufactories, who are destitute oi I even these slender protections! STATE OF TR IDE. `i` FOREIGN WOOL TRADE, LEEDS, SEPT. 30.—Th( - a r emand for foreign wools this week has shown rather more animation than has been exhibited during the fortnight or three weeks previous : a somewhat larger amount of sales has been effected, and prices are steady. ENGLISH WOOL MARKET, LEEDS, SEPT. 30. — Sales of combing wools continue very limited, and late prices are with difficulty maintained. In clothing wools we have not any alteration to report either in demand or prices. . . TRADE OF LEEDS.—The markets at our cloth-ha% still continue dull for cloths of all descriptions, the principal demand being for heavy tweeds, fancy cloak ings, shawls, and beaver cloths. Prices are stationary, End the stocks in the hands of the makers are un usually low. There have been a great number of drapers from the [country in the market during the week, and in consequence there has been a little im provement in business in the warehouses. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, SEPT. 27.—The demand for all descriptions of goods is still very limited. Some American houses have been rather busier, but the general aspect of the market remains unchanged. Ali hopes of an active intercourse with America have been damped by the increased duties upon our prin cipal productions, and though the very ample con cessions of the British Ministry on the boundary question to the Government of the United States have removed all fears of a rupture between the two coun tries, there is still a war of tariffs and prohibitory duties in existence, which is not less fatal to British interests, and which the longer it is protracted, the more ruinous will be its consequences. In the mean time the home trade languishesior want of an impulse from abroad. So severe and long-continued has been the depression of trade, that the working classes have, in too many instances, become deeply involved in debt, and it will require all their energies, even with the aid of cheap bread, to extricate themselves : with them, for a long time, clothing must be a secondary consideration. BRADFORD MARKET, THURSDAY. — We have had fully as numerous an attendance of merchants at our piece market to-day as for several weeks past, and the inquiries for gdods are chiefly for the export trade ; the home buyers at present purchasing very sparingly. The accounts of the commencement of Leipsic fail are considered favourable. Low Orleans cloths are more in demand, and prices generally the same as last week. There is not quite so a good a demand for yarns; buyers are acting with great caution, and offer ing lower rates, but this the spinners will not accede to. The supply of all middling qualities of wools is less abundant than for several weeks past, which is ac counted for by the price in the growing districts being as high as in the market. Those staplers who have had a stock and disposed of it, now find the greatest difficulty to replace the like wools, and ob• tain the slightest profit.—Leeds Mercury. CHARING-CROSS HOSPITAL. (THIS DAY.) The winter session of the Charing-cross Hospital. Medical School commenced this afternoon at three o'clock, on which occasion Dr. Sherman delivered the introductory lecture. The Doctor is one of the old school, and holding in proper and orthodox abhorrence , the pestilent doc trines of phrenology, which lead, according to the Doctor's ideas, to fatalism and materialism, and ali the other isms that are horrible and improper. The phrenologists need not, however, stand in much dreau of the Learned Doctor, who, throughout his attack on their doctrines, took that for granted which he ought to have proved—in short, begged the whole ques tion in dispute. In one part of his attack, however, he made u-. Most important admission. He said phreno logists were in the habit of exhibiting casts of the head of the same individual taken at different periods of his life, and showing the change whi ch had take n place in the phrenological developments; but, said the Doctor, what is the u*.of showing these changes, un less they can show that the change took place in the development before the change took place in the conduct of the individual ? Now, begging the Doc tor's pardon, his argument is beside the question. He should have denied that any such change in the de velopments ever took place. By admitting the fact, that such a change does take place, he admits the truth of the fundamental doctrines of phrenology. There was a very respectable muster of students present. . EXTRAORDINARY ATTEMPT AT MURDER. An extraordinary and most inhuman attempt was made, on Sunday last, by a man named James Mailers, or Mallard, to murder his wife, at Hemingford, Cam bridgeshire. Mailers and his fitther-in-law lived next door to one another, and on Sunday afternoon, during Divine service, Whilst all the persons residing in the house adjoining his own were at church, he enticed his wife (who is pregnant) to the brink of a well in the back part of the premises, and, watching his op • was engaged, y and portunity, when he stehizeedunhfeorrtusundadteenwoman's threw attention her head foremost into the well, which is about ten or twelve feet deep. In the fall the poor creature's head came upwards, and, as there was not more than five feet of water in the well, she was enabled to keep her mouth above the surface. Seeing that his object was not likely to be effected, the murderous wretch jumped down upon her shoulders and endeavoured to trample her under the water. During this attempt the struggles , of the woman for life were dreadful ; and each time that her head rose above the surface she made use of the brief breathing space to beseech him, in the most agonising tones, to spare her, promising that if he would desist from his de sign, she would not mention a word of what had happened. Ile replied that he had gone too far to stop, and she would hang him if he spared her life Moved at last, either by the fear that somebody would arrive, or by pity for his victim, he relented, got a ladder, and helped her out. The moment she was inside her bedroom, she had the presence of mind to lock the door. He tried to get into the room, but not succeeding made his escape. When the monster's father-in-law returned from church the circumstance: became known, and the Magisterial authorities hav ing been made acquainted with them; the poor woman's deposition was taken down, and a warrant issued for the apprehension of the prisoner, who 'is supposed to have come to London. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, SEPT. 30.—We hav( had a very flat market through the week, influenced by the state of the London market, which has been exceedingly depressed in consequence of heavy arrivals. and the increasing surplus in the stocks of West India and Bengals.—Bristol Mercury.

MASONIC INTIMLIGENCE.—We are glad to hear that a grand demonstration will take place early next month, on the occasion of laying the foundation ston e of the Beading Cemetery. The Brethren in Berk shire are making every arrangement to do due honour to the occasion ; and from the ready mode of 'access by railway, and its short distance from town, it is fully expected that there will be a large muster of the Brethren, not only from the neighbourhood and the province, but from London ; also, such an Occur rence as the laying of a stone with Masonic honours not having taken place for many years in the town of Reading, no doubt will cause a great influx of strangers on the occasion. We believe That the stone will be laid by J. Ramsbottom, Esq., M.P., Provin, cial Grand Master for Berks.—Advertiser. • NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORSMOUTIT, SEPT. 29.—The inefficiency o f th ri e steamers belonging to the Royal Navy has long b' 1. 1 a subject of surprise and complaint among nalitij ifer ." men. In the naval correspondence of the nearly a twelvemonth ago, the want of power of the_ steam-vessels belonging to the Government vv.a,s noticed. It was then stated that there were only t*,,_ ° steam frigates whose engines were upwards of 4 : ( - ) :5 horse-power; while all the rest of the steam navy n ' o f engines of such trifling power that, in the even t their being on a lee shore in a gale of wind, it with great difficulty they could " hold their 0 "', 11 ". t much less afford as s i s t ance t o any sailing-y ess el ti c r s er might be in compa n y w ith th em , by towing h The majority of the Governm en t s t ea mers are grea t ), crippled in their utility f rom th e ill- a dvised and el pensive economy of the pa r ti es w h o f or merly hel d t he r sway of the Admiralty notsupplying them with Inlg e engines in order to save a trifling expense.

It is understood that sent Admiralty intend that all steamers that T o f o henceforth be fitted out shall be supplied with eng of much greater power than those now in use. r b e t the P e recent circumstances attending the voyage °.; rs o Majesty to Scotland, when, in consequence of an e ce j winds, the Royal yacht was compelled to be ;t° her by steamers of inadequate power, and. when return it was found necessary t o equ ip a me of steamer to convey her to W oo l w i c h, n ot one 0 ,, s , e ,. four which formed th e escor t h av i ng suffieient s of or accommodation, have sho wn th e necessity placing the steam na v y on a more e ffi c ient sca le ' it is, indeed, disgraceful that a powerful Governor with great resources, sh ou ld . no t h ave s teamer to in power and speed to any afloat, but be cotoPe" e . o to apply for steamers of this desc r ipti on to a P rl company. ha s The Royal George yacht, C a pt a i n Lord Adn'i ) Fitzclarence, arrived prom Woolwich yesterday.' is stated that she is to b e exam i ne d, and if it is. practicable she is to be fitt e d w ith eng i n es arid e- o• verted into a steam yacht.
