GREAT SELLING OFF, by Mr. FOSTER, the ACCOUNTANT. MR. FOSTER has instructions to submit for SALE,in Lots, as prepared for Auction, 27,000/. worth of LINEN DRAPERY GOODS, being the Stock adver tised for Auction on the Premises, CORNER of FLEET STREET and FA RRINGDON-STREET, tracing under the firm of HEI3BLEWHITE and CO., notice having been given that an auction is not permitted by the lease. Mr. Foster, in calling attention to this immense sale of goods, begs to remind ladies and families that they are not expected to realise more than half the original cost, the object being to clear the whole off the premises, and any portion remaining must of necessity be removed to his Auction-rooms. Ladies are soli cited to matzo allowances for the awkwardness of the assistants, being mostly young men from his office, consequently unused to this method of selling goods over the counter. The following is about the reductions intended to be made. The linens being the larger portion, will be reduced as under:— s. d. 730 pieces of Irish linen, mostly Knox's make, that cost from Is. 6d. to ts. 2d. per yard, ladies may choose from all, at 26 yards, for About 850 of his curiously fine numbers, worth from 2s. 94. to 3s. 3d. per yard, will be likewise reduced to 26 yards for 1,000 or more pieces that are soiled, amongst which are some warranted fabrics, will be reduced to 26 yards for 21 0 The sheetings and table-linen require particular notice. The respectable family trade carried en for thirty years at the e•ta blishment rendered it necessary to keep none but fine and war ranted good., consequently ladies will not be subjected to the chances usual on selling off stocks of risking the durabiliity. Fifty pieces of linen sheeting are reduced to be sold in the length only at 4s. 64. to 105. 6d. the pair, those at 10s. 6d. being three yards wide, and real Barnsley manufacture, having originally cost 2s. 9d. per yard. Should the length be found in convenient a further reduction will be mads in the price. The tablecloths, although of the finest description, are mostly soiled, consequently the reduction must be immense. Some superb damask cloths, three yards long, will be sold as low as 6s. 64. each ; lots of good linen breakfast cloths will be marked from Is. to 2s. 6d. each, and about 130 cloths, from three to six yards long, many worth three to four guineas, will be sold none higher than fifty shillings. s. d. The blankets will be sold, two yards long (larger sizes in pis portion), the pair A lot of blankets, that weigh eight pounds, will be told, the pair A bale of counterpanes, many near three yardslong, will be sold, all each About 600 expensive quilts, that cost 21s. to 255., will be all sold, each.. 160 dozen of cambric handkerchiefs, worth Is. 9d. each, will be sold by the dozen, only at ... A lot of lawn ditto, will be reduced to, the dozen llortock's long cloths, usually sold to the trade at 6d per yard, will be sold, 40 yards for l2 6 Prints will be reduced all under 4s. 6d. the dress, to All Sherriffs and Cobden's best prints, usually so expen sive, will be sold, the dress... 4 0 1,400 shawl., and 9001. worth of rich silks will be sold at any reasonable price that may be offered. Mr. Foster would not have undertaken the sale had he not felt satisfied of the character of the goods to be sold, and ladies may depend that every article will fully answer the description given in this advertisement, or at the time of sale. The prin cipal part of the stock having been kept in their wholesale ware houses, will be found in good condition, and any person buying in large quantities, no obstacle wdl exist in the way of price ; al,o liberal discount will be allowed off the bill when it ex ceeds 101. Mr. Foster particularly directs the attention of families re quiring Carpets-many superb patterns in rich Brussels wiP ba sold without reference to the cost, good qualities at 2s. 6d. and 2s. 9d. per yard ; several lots of good wide Kiddermin ster, excellent qualities, Is. 4d. and Is. 9d. The Foreign Tablecloths are now un si.le. All Letters, containing a remittance, strictly attended to, and in conclusion, Mr. Foster begs to add that he will not allow on these premises any article to be sold but what is per fect, and that he can feel justified in warranting. Observe, the sale is now on at Hebblewhite's Warehouse, 105, Fleet-street, corner of Faringdon-street. Omnibuses pass every minute from all pats of the town. It will be found most convenient for Carriages to set down in Farringdon-street. 39 ALBENI ARLE.S MEET, PICCADILLY (directly opposite the Ivork Hos,.l‘. and 76, KlNt4 WILLIAM STREET, BANK OF ENGLAND. SIGHT AND HEARlNG.—Patronized by their Majesties the King and the late Queen of Hanover, and their !loyal Highnesses the late Prin (Is Augusta, and the Princess So. ihia; Orr Serene Highness the Princess Esterhazy, the Princesses Aary and Rosa, her Grace the Dowager Duchess of Bedford, and ;heir Graces the Archbi,hop of Canterbui y, and the Dukes of Nor folk. Devonshire, Argyll, Manchester, and Marlborough, Lord Hill, &e. &c. Messrs' S. and B. SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists, during a professional experience of thirty years, have had ample oppor tunities of verifying that the Organs of Sight and Hearing are sympathetically related to each other in ,uch a peculiar manner, that when the Nines becomes imperfect the sense of hearing becomes rapidly dull—this fact is admitted by sci eutific authorities, and must be observsble by many thou rids of indivi, uals thus circumstanced—which is deserving the public's most serious attention. The. Messrs. Solentons, with a view to remedy such an affection, and after they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch of science, have succeeded in effecting for imperfect visi n a most scientific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a preventive and cure for Deafness; they have in vented an Operative Voice Conductor, upon a very small construe' toe, no'. reiceptible ; it requires uo holding, and the individual homes diately becomes one of the party in the general conversation. dy these important discoveries not only is defective vision broeght to nature, but the sense of hearing is restored to its original acuteness ; those Lenses arc so constructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such scientific prin ciples, combined with the long extensive experience of the Messrs. S'olomons, that they will be found to effect such an extent of relief, white will far exceed their utmost and most sanguine ex pectations. On placing those Lenses before imperfect vision, either uy day or candlelight, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle seen with exact distinctness. The Messrs. solomons have in their possession, without one exception, Spectacles and Far Instruments of every kind which are offered to the public by other individuals, to point out the superiority of their improve ments over all others. 'I he patronage of nobility and Gentry, and recommendations of the principal Oculist Physicians and Surgeons in London, and through Great Britain as well as on the Continent, would be too numerous for insertion.

TILDESLEY. Th!s was an information, filed by the Attorney •General, against the plaintiff, for the non-payment of duty upon a quantity of bricks. The case had been tried before Lord Abinger at the sittings after the last term, and a verdict w as found for the plaintiff. The Attorney-General had since obtained a rule calling on the plaintiff to show cause why a new trial should not be granted, on the ground that the Learned Judge, in charging the Jury, had used certain words which remained for their consideration as part of the evidence. Mr. LEE, en the part of the plaintiff; now applied for a dis charge of the rule, on the ground that in informations filed by the Crown, the Court never granted new trials, after a verdict had been returned for the defendants. The CO IRT, after hearing the arguments on both side, stated that they should consider their decision in the case. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MANSION HOUSE. The Loan MA you said, that in consequence of the publicity which had been humanely given by the press to the robbery of the poor woman named 'Ann Preston, in a Hammersmith om nibus, he had received some contributions for leer relief. Amongst the contributions he had received was the following : "My Lord,—l took the liberty to enclose to your Lordship last Monday 51., with the signature ' O. L.,' in consequence of the Mansion-house report of the ease of Ann Preston, who had been robbed of her all in an omnibus, and of seeing that your Lordship had expressed your readiness to receive anything for her towards the alleviation of her loss. I hope you have re ceived my letter, and that your kind endeavours for her may succeed in making her some amends for her loss. I should think if she were to recollect herself she might call to mind whether she had mentioned to any person or persons her pos session of money, and her intention of proceeding by an omni bus to invest it, as those robberies are generally got up on in formation and knowledge of the movements, &c., of those whom it is intended to plunder. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, your obedient servant, " May 4th." " O. L. The Loan MAYOR observed that if the humane writer of the letter had given his address, a letter of acknowledgment should have been sent to him the moment the money was re ceived.

GLOBE.—The conversation in the Lords, re specting the employment of children in collieries and factories, is so far satisfactory as indicating concern for the welfare of a numerous, and, under the present circumstances, helpless portion of the population. What is not satisfactory, however, is the superficial treatment of evils whose source is deeper, and is not ascribable to particular important branches of employment. What could be more superficial than the remark of the Bishop of London—" All the statistical re turns connected with this subject wcnt to show that the mortality was greater among those employed in manufactures than among those employed in agricul ture. Whatever evils might exist among the labour• ing classes engaged in agriculture, those evils were fearfully aggravated among the manufacturing popu lation." Here is not only fact—but theory as to the causes of fact—a theory assuming it as self-evident and incontestible that manufactures, and the manu facturing system, which he Right Rev. Prelate also says is " eating into the very vitals of the country," are the cause of mortality in towns. We hold that it is something very different which is eating into the vitals of the country; and that it is not the manufacturing system that is the cause of mortality in towns. In order to settle this point, might it not be as well to inquire whether towns destitute of manufactures are exempted from this increased mortality—whether, on the contrary, towns, as the towns of Ireland, which are thus destitute, are not the seats of tenfold misery, and tenfold mortality, and whether the wretched inhabit ants of those towns do not eagerly resort for refuge to the great seats of industry, stigmatised with so little reflection by the Bishop of London ? Those who can find no footing on the soil—those whose labour is in no demand there—those to whom the Bishop of London can assign no place there but an Union Workhouse—where does the Right Rev. Prelate mean them to live ? Whom does the Right Rev. Pre late mean to employ and feed them? What indivi dual or collective industry does he mean them to exercise ? Is it not, something idle, and something ex cessively dangerous to sentimentalise about the in herent evils of town life—when town life is alone left open to so many industrious and commercial citizens ? Is it not something idle, and something excessively unjust, to fix the stigma of town mortality on the great employers of town labour ? The decay of com merce, the closing of factories, the blowing out Of furnaces, demonstrate too clearly whether labour bas much to thank those lawmakers for, who declaim against the mortality of towns,—having stinted their food,—and protect children from over-work, while crip pling the commerce which provides parent employment. It is with feelings of deep and unaffected dread for the future, that we mark this minute attention to the symptoms of evil in town life and labour, and con trast it with the interested indifference to the causes which govern the condition of all labour. We be lieve that, speaking generally, Lord Fit zwiliiam is perfectly right in saying that there is not the slightest superiority in the agricultural population. But be this so or not, the great departments of town labour are necessary—and it is not to them, but to the injustice which is done them, that are due their worst evils. Employers and labourers suffer under a had enough system certainly—but that sys tem is not of their own making or maintaining—its authors are the lords of the soil. Whatever mitiga tion of its worst effects the towns have enjoyed, has been owing to those manufacturing capitals which so long upheld the value of town labour. When those capitals have fled or perished, we shall see if town and country are better without them. All this is no de fence of infant ill-treatment in collieries ; but is, we think, not an uncalled-for answer to superficial treat= ment' (even by a Bishop) of 'the question whether manufactures or mow poly be "eating into bur vitals." STANDARD.—The case of women and children labouring in coal pits has been . forced upon public attention, by the publication of three books of Reports of Commissioners appointed to inquire into the sub ject. Two of these books are exceedingly large, and all of them appear to be the work of men earnestly and honestly resolved to bring the truth to light, neither exaggerating nor extenuating any part of it. The disclosures made are extremely painful, exhibiting the condition of many of our fellow-creatures •as so miserable and de graded that the representation' could not be credited, if we were not prepared for it by what is known of some of the factories, and by the sad conviction which the experience of these factories must fasten upon every mind, the conviction, namely, that none are to be safely trusted with the care of their fellows where gain is the object, and human beings are the instruments. The volumes of the Colliery' Commissioners are illus trated by well-executed engravings, and these en gravings speak much more sensibly to the mind than words can : it is, therefore, a vain hope. to expect to communicate in words anything like the impression produced by the perusal of the Report, aided by the sketches in question. Every one has a rude notion of coal-pits, though few are aware of the shape they take in the interior, as they branch off in pursuit of the capricious ramifications of the veins, or, as they are called, " seams" of coal. These seams, however, are round of all sizes—some very large, which permit men to work, in raising and removing the coal, in an erect attitude, and to avail themselves of the service of horses and asses for the purposes of carriage ; but some of the seams are small, though still thought worth the working ; and from these the coal must be extracted in a stooping, crouching, and even grovelling posture, continued through many hundreds of yards. It is in these smaller seams that women and children, down to the tender ages of seven, six, and even five years are employed. The nature of the employment may be understood, from considering that the smaller seams in their whole width exceed very little, if at all, the width of an ordinary chimney ue, and that they in cline or ascend in every variety of angle. The poor workers in these channels are therefore in a great measure employed as the climbing boys who used to sweep chimneys before the humanity of the Legislature imposed restrictions upon that trade ; but the condition of the " seam-gropers" in collieries is much worse than that of chimney sweeps in many respects; first, the seams are always wet and muddy; secondly, the seams almost always dip, so as to render it necessary for the wretched creatures to work most commonly with their heads downward ; lastly, they have to drag a heavy load of from one to two hundred pounds weight, on a truck without wheels, and through mud, for the whole length of the seam, which frequently exceeds many hundred yards ; add .to this a perfect dark ness, ,add the close unwholesome air of a mine, it may be 500 or 1,000 feet below the surface—and here is a picture of physical suffering . which it is impossible to exaggerate, even by the painful and de grading harness in which the sufferers are equipped —a chain passing round the waist between the thighs, , and attached to the slide truck. It may be easily supposed that where so little account is made of phy sical suffering, much care is not bestowed upon the protection of morals ; and in fact the most ordinary guard of decency, clothing, itself is dispensed with. The men in some mines work altogether, and the women and girls nearly, naked. The necessary re sult is what it is painful to contemplate, what it would be, if possible, more painful to describe. BRISTOL SUGAR MARKET, FRIDAY, MAY G. — The wind has at length changed, and arrivals are coming in fast. The greater part of the two small cargoes recently re ceived have been sold at rather extravagant prices, but the general expectation is that the buyers will now do better. Li London, prices are already rather easier, the sellers being much more inclined to give way.—Bristol Mercury. A horrible fratricide was perpetrated last week at St. Just (Loire). Two brothers, named Tholome, having quarrelled, the elder of them, on the same day, entered a field . An which his brother was at work with his wile and two other persons, and deliberately taking aim at him, at a distance of a few paces, with a gun which he held, shot him dead. MARKET INTELLIGENCE. ( From the London New Price Current of May 6.) SUGAR. —The w:nd having changed, arrivals have com menced to come in ; buyers, however, have evinced less incli nation to purchase, and have submitted to a reduction en former rates of 6d to Is per cwt. To-day the West India Market exhibited a dull appearance, the demand was limited both for the scale and the pan, and the supply of Sugar being on the increase. importers were compelled again to submit to lower rates, making the decline for the week Is 6d to 2s per cwt, and the purc hases only 500 hhds and tierces. The arrivals of Bengal and Mauritius Sugar have commenced to come in freely, and of West India several ships are daily expected. The market closed heavily for all sorts of Sugar. REFINED.—The home trade have been eager buyers of all descriptions of Refined Goods, and have cleared the market this week, paying an advance on former rates of is to is 6d per cwt. To-day Refined Goods were taken sparingly by the home trade, and lower rates were accepted; Standard Lumps selling at 84s to 84s 6d per cwt. Bonded Crushed Sugar sells slowly at 28s 3d to 283 6d per cwt. MAURITZ us.—A good demand has existed both for brown and yellow sorts, and the rates previously established have been sustained. This afternoon the trade operated less freely at the public sales, which consisted of 5,198 bags, 44 casks; the bid dings were languid, and not above half found bu)ers Is to ls 6d under former rates ; fine yellow selling at 66s to 675, good 64s to 65s 6d, middling 63s to 645, low 61s 6d to 62s per cwt.

Yesterday Aaron Jones a milkman, and Mr. Joseph Shad bolt, the proprietor of the Mitre Tavern in Aldgate, were charged with drunkenness and furious driving. Mr. Charles Hill, a gentleman residing in the New Kent road stated, that on the preceding evening he was driving through Shoreditch with his brother in a pony . chaise, when he perceived the de fr mlants approaching him from the opposite direction in a chaise, which was driven by the defendant Jores at the rate of eighteen or twenty miles an hour. He endea voured to avoid them by drawing up close to the kerb, but a collision took place, and his brother and himself were thrown out on the pavement. They were both stunned by the fall; and on recovering themselves they found that their chaise was turned completely over, and that the off-shaft and wheel were broken. 'The defendants attempted to make their escape, but they were given into custody. Jones was ordered to pay a fine of 405., the utmost penalty for furious driving, and also the amount of the damage, or, in default, to be imprisoned for three weeks. The other defen dant was fined ss. for being drunk. Both fines were paid. THE CAUBUL MASSACRE, The Alphabetical List of Caubul Officers (published in our paper on Thursday), was incorrect in the following instances : Lieut. Hobhouse, H.M., 13th Light Infantry, omitted_ stormed a fort at the head of a forlorn hope at Caubul, early in November (vide Lady Sale's Journal ) Skinner, Captain, 61st Native Infantry, missing, explained by a note at the head of the list to mean • supposed to have perished in the passes "—Commissary at Caubul, con cealed by his native s ervant, given up to the i n surgents, em ployed by them in negotiation, and as interpreter, and well treated up to the middle of January, never in Burt, Capt., sth Cavalry, reported in the Private Corre spendenee of the Times, from the Delhi Gazette, as ransomed and safe in Peshawur, omitted altogether. the passes." The expressions " at Cabool," " safe," " at Baderabad," so irregularly used, are calculated to give great uneasiness, and lead to misconception. They only mean that the officer named missing" may be judged Affghans. The ac curacy of the meaning of the w ord " is alive, and a prisoner in the ha nds of the of by Capt. Skinner's case.

ANEW DISCOVERY in TEETH—Mr HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet- street, has in introduced AN ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION of A RFIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, wires, or li gatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer ; they will NEVER CHANGE COLOUR OR DECAY, and will be found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or any painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that. are loose, and are guaranteed to restore articulation an*/ mastication; and, that Air. Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical, he has axed his charges at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound sod useful in mastication.--52, Fleet-street.
