A IL F I A Dr E. One half the world are desolately single, and the other 'Pacting them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, or a ou f t lBo of right determine the former, and miscalculated hopes em- A ter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea Of Caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un- C oltiprosiF,g harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, Anil broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness ilind social content. The dowry should not be the only marriage set ilernent. Honour and justice demand that health should form an item In the compact ; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes er neglect weaned more sorely than poverty or misfortune.

COOK'S JOURNAL is now com pleted, and the Proprietor takes this opportunity of expressing her sense of nil honourable and coveted position which a generous Public has placed her in. Many difficulties beset the path of a young Journalist which a little experience removes, and most earnest thanks are proffered for the kind indulgence bestowed on the errors which have occasionally marked the Editorial and Practical Departments. The best proof of the Editor's feeling will be found in her endeavours to render the Journal far more worthy of the flattering patronage it receives, and without any fallacious boast, she can promise her Readers a future supply of sound and valuable matter. The most gratifying circumstance attending the extensive circula tion and cordial reception of the Journal has been in proving that a large reading public can be found for a cheap Serial who do not require unhealthy excitement and mere ephemeral entertainment to gain their attention." Eight glad has the Editor been to see that her plain' and simple wish to elevate the morals and invigorate the mind, kw been graciously received ; for, though amusement is one of the chief essentials, not only of periodical literature, but of our whble lives, it should ever be blended with a principle and purpose tending to advance humanity. Prom the cheering encouragement already received, the Editor trusts fully to her friends for the future, and has equal pride and pleasure in presenting her First Volume as a Journalist to those whose generous perceptions stamped her first attempt as a Poet.

Specimens can be seen at 114, 116, and 120, Regent-street, and 22, Cornhill, as also THE TREBLE Garment, or I'ALETOT, called THE NICOLL, which retains all the characteristics of the famed Paletot (registered 6 and 7 Vic., cap. 65) in its exterior, and has the additional advantages of being convertible from a warm to a light Overcoat, or vice versa, at the pleasure of the wearer, or as the mild or cold nature of the weather may re quire. This garment must be seen and worn to be properly appre ciated ; it will be found, perhaps, the best preservative of health in this variable climate. THE NICOLL has been secured by Royal Letters Patent in ENGLAND, IRELAND, SCOTL AND, and the COLONIES; it can, therefore, only be purchased in the country, or abroad, of Messrs. NICOLL'S (the patentees) recognised AGENTS, and in LONDON only of themselves, viz., at 114, 116, 120, REGENT-STREET, and 22, CORNHILL.

OPENING of the NEW COAL EXCIIANGE. TIER MAJESTY'S VISIT. No doubt the reader would esteem it strange, If. Moses' Muse forgot the Coal Exchange ; And, therefore, as the Queen's to come, I'll greet her, By writing on the coals a little metre. My burning loyalty I cannot smother, Nor yet exchange this subject for another. The Queen, no doubt, will find her subjects give her A very warm reception on the river. Success, I say, to that commercial scheme Whose memorable opening forms my theme ; For, oh ! each portion of the pile is rife, With fond ideas of home and homely life. And now, shall I be quitting the sublime, By introducing Moses in my rhyme? No : Moses, who have long enjoyed control, Are nobs in trade—l don't mean knobs of coal. Moses and Son's attire is so well made That it has long enured a flare-up trade. Moses and Son, whose words ne'er end in smoke, Have given monopoly a timely poke ; May I not add, too, that the Coal Exchange Ii not by any means the sole Exchange ? Moses and Son at their Depot arrange, To exchange your goods without a word's exchange ; And hence it is that such a stir is made By Messrs. Moses in their flaming trade. LIST OF PRICES. READY MADE.

Horace Say, Coun cillor of State, M. Francesgue Bouvet, M. Bastiat, Members of the Chamber of Deputies; M. Pontoni6, M. Guillaumin, editor of the Jcurnal des Economistes; M. Joseph Gamier, secretary of the Paris Peace Congress. On the platform were John Bright, Esq., M.P., E. Fry, Esq., Sir Elkanah Armit a ge, President Mahon, of Oberlin College, United States, and many influential gentlemen of the neighbourhood. Riedard Cobden, Esq., M.P., ens unavoidably prevented from being present. • Tho chair was taken at a little after seven o'clock by George Wilson, E.q. The French deputation on their appearance were greeted with repeated cheering. The CHAIRMAN, in opening the proceedings, said that for some years it bad often afforded him great pleasure to see this hall crowded with persons intent upon obtain ing information upon moat of the great questions of the day; and he might say that speeches had been delivered in this hall which had exercised an influence throughout the world; yet he thought no meeting heretofore had been held there which would have a, greater effect upon future generations than the present one. They had met to night to show that whatever cries Governments might raise for national defences, there were in the country men of no small influence who thought that pro per understanding might be preserved by better means than by those which Governments had hitherto used. This was the third meeting this week at which• the foreign gentlemen prevented themselves; this was the third meeting in England which had arisen out of that glorious Peace Congress at Paris held this year. He need not allude to the rapid progress of peace principles. Some time ago we had been terrified by letters showing that there was great danger that a French fleet would sail up the Thames some fine morn ing and run away with the Queen and the Lord May or. Well, their fears had come to pass, an army of French had invaded our shores, but instead of running away with the Queen they had sent us their King.—(Laugh t( r.) They had dined at the Mansion-house, but he did not know that the First Magistrate had been in any great fear during the repast. The peace question was one which would very soon have to be grappled with by the Government; it would press upon them for settlement in its moral and in its financial bearing. There were great numbers (:f men in the country who now thought that there were better uses to which to apply the muscle and sinew of our population than to employ them in aggressive war, other methods of employing surplus capital than in laying it out on cannon-ball; other duties fur our clergy than to call upon them to degrade their religion by consecrating the colours of the regi ments. The two great nations represented here had often led the van in the field of battle, but he hoped from this time forth that they would do all they could toge ther to repair the injuries which they had done to society. It would cost millions to raise up another Wellington or another Napoleon. It was time then to turn to other methods of employing the energies of the two nations, and the results of such co operation would not be reckoned by the number of slain, nor by the millions of debt, but by the universal benefits conveyed to society. Letters were then read from Victor Hugo, Lamartine, the Archbishop of Paris, Girardin, editor of La Presse, excusing themselves from being present on this occasion, owing to political engagements. The names of these gentlemen, especially that of M. de Lamartine, were received with enthusiastic applause. Mr. EDMUND Fla then came forward and said— It was pleasant to him to have to speak of the great kindness which had been shown to the Eng lish and American delegates to the Peace Congress by the French Government and people. The Peace Congress committee had now been organized one year, to which two duties had been committed. First, that of instituting a series of operations in support of Mr, Cobden's projected motion in the House for the substitution of arbitration treaties for war. Meetings in pursuance of this duty had been held all over the country, and the consequence was that more than a thousand petitions had been poured into the House is support of those principles. A great effect had been produced upon the House by these petitions, and on the motion being brought; i forward, eighty-one Members voted in Mr. Cobden's minority. The second duty, to make arrangements for the holding of a Peace Congress at Paris, which had been suggested by the Congress at Brussels the year before. Certainly the Times news paper had attempted to sneer them down,but the friends of peace were not to be put down by such means, and the committee continued to make its arrangements, and Mr. Elihu Burrit and Mr. Richards proceeded to Paris to endeavour to institute a sympathy there, notwithstand ing that they had been told that the French people wero so essentially a war-loving people, and their errand was a fruitless one. But, in truth, on try ing the pulse of the principal men in France, they encountered more encouragement than they had dared to hope. In July, these gentlemen paid a second visit to Paris to obtain autho: ity for holding a Congress, as Paris was at that time in a state of siege. Having obtained this from M. Dupont, Minister of the Interior, they received from him, as well as from M. do Tocqueville, the assurance of the highest sympathy. The consequence was that 700 delegates from England and America were ready to attend the Congress in Paris. These gentlemen were received by the French Government with the highest demonstrations of respect and confidence. During the whole three days which the Congress lasted not one incident occurred to disturb the general harmony. The result was that three resolutions were arrived at, the first expressing that the war system was utterly opposed to the principles of justice, humanity, and religion ; the second, that the principle of arbitra tion should be adopted by all nations, instead of war; and thirdly, as a result of the other two, that all nations should proceed to a general and simultaneous disarming. The whole Congress bad passed off amid the universal respect and admiration of the French people. He believed that if the Congress had dune nothing more, they had done this—they bad pre vented the Government of France and the Government of England ever going to war with each other. They had brought a new element into the settlement of all international disputes for evermore. tie asked the foreign gentlemen now present to tell the French people, when they returned to their own country, that for the future, when any point of dispute arose, and they were told by their newspapers that it could not be settled except by war, to tell them, from what they bad seen in this country, that there was a spirit growing up here which would prevent for the future any sudden or hasty return to the iniquitous system which had so long prevailed; that there was a spirit growing in this coun try which was better expressed by two lines in a song known over all the country— . " Let those who make the quarrels Be the only men to fight." The first resolution—," That this meeting desiring international arbitration as a substitute for the un- Christian system of war, disapproving of loans for the prosecution of war, and believing that the permanent prosperity of nations cannot be secured but by i a general disarmament, rejoices to hear of the signal success which attended the European Peace Congress lately held at Paris, and of the unanimity which pre vailed in the deliberations of that large assembly"—was then moved by Mr. A. Prentice , and seconded by Mr. Alderman Harvey, the delegates from Manchester to the Paris. Peace Congress. After the resolution had been put and carried, Mr. BRIGHT. M.P., came forward amid repeated cheers. He thought that the English people were emi nently a practical people, and yet it they were to believe the dicta of certain wiseacres, the English people had of late become a very visionary race, seeking after all manner of impossible things which they !never could hope to attain. In London and Birmingham the principle of peace had been rapturously and enthusiastically re ceived by thousands of this practical people. The ques tion was worth asking whether the present object which they were pursuing was visionary or not, whether it was one they could ever obtain. Every morn ing the newspapers published what they called " leaders," but which he thought were now got to be followers, and he believed that as far as leaders went, the public press had much less influence over the public mind than it had before this time. Tho friends of the peace movement came before the public in a more favourable position than any others,. inasmech as they advocated a question which all men allowed to be a blessing. What was their experience of war ? Blood without reckoning, treasure without reckoning, wasted industry, poverty, taxes, and crime. One-halt' of the gaols of England, one-half of the poor-houses in the land, were the monuments of the wars of the last fifty years—wars between this country and France. The principles of peace which were advocated here to night had made suoh progress in this country and in America, that he believed it was impossible that war ever could arise upon any small question; but still, if there were a treaty of arbitration between the two countries, the war would be rendered actually impos sible. Armies and fleets wero now only kept up on pretence; but if the arbitration scheme were adopted, what minister or what statesman would ever dare to keep up armaments for the purpose of settling questions which it had already been deter mined should be settled in another manner. When armaments were put down, there would be more chance of the spread of liberty. For look now at the state of Europe. What was their state? Did kings rule? Did the people ? No, the armies. And so it would ever be, while the present system was continued. He had had put into his bands a resolution regarding the foreign gentlemen here present, and in reading it over ho could 110 t help thinking what a change had come over him was a nd worth it since his childhood, when it was urged as a charge of hoped o thanpe that d onet t h h e t t Englishman ph em f o r ap o e s, aw t g e a n agi F r a r t e ne me confid entlyaffirmedeln.re n H c h e inch they so well them from France that welcome w ose and cheered Man chester would give to the gentlemen who had visited ' knew how to give. (The meeting here r enthusiastically for mend minutes.). lie could tell the gentlemen that if they went further north, they would find as enthusiastic a welcome there as they had here found. And he hoped that when they returned they would be able to tell their country men that there was a spirit abroad in England which might be expressed in the words which had been put by an English dramatist into the mouth of a French statesman— " Take away the sword; states can be saved without it." The lion. Gentleman concluded by moving the second reso'ution—" That this meeting rejoices in the oppor tunity of welcoming our French brethren to the matiu fscturing metropolis, and of acknowledging to them per sonally the fraternal reception given to the English dele gates at Paris by the Government and the people, and expresses a confident belief that conferences such as these will pewez fully tend to remove long-cherished feelings of hostile rivalry, and to fuse all nations into one peaceful brotherhood." M. Neenneer seconded the resolution. The CHAIRMAN then introduced the deputies from France, who were each, on their appearance, received with three distinct rounds of applause. M. HORACE SAY then came forward, and said, it had given him and the other members of the deputation great pleasure to receive the invitation to attend this meeting, though it was somewhat mingled with regret that they bad not been enabled to be introduced by Richard Cobden. He was proud to meet the people of Manchester, who had been foremost in all the great questions of civil and religious liberty, in this palace of free trade. France like England was now bending under au accumulated weight of debt, the fruits and in heritance of a long series of wars; increiscd also by the consequences of keeping up an army and navy fit for war in a time of peace. War had never. been profitable to France. In endeavouring to put down piracy, France had been conducted to the north coast oiAfrica, and had taken possession of Algiers. For twenty years they had bean sending annually to that catente;. 20,000 men and millions of francs to no good the Ministers every year had congratulated the cuantry upon the opening of a fresh market for their manufactures. But what sort of a market was it? They had certainly been ;ending out manufactures to Algiers, but they were ma nufactures which they had to buy with their own money, sent out along with the manufacturers. This would always be the fruit of;such conquests. lie was rejoiced to meet this assembly of Manchester men, because it contradicted the line of a French poet who said, that " common sense was exceedingly rare." M. F. BASTIAT then came forward, and said he dared say that they all had heard of the dumb child who, seeing his father in trouble, had been so much moved that he had burst his bonds, and cried " Father, take care." He was in a similar state; he could only say " Englishmen, I thank you from the bottom of my heart." Eight years had elapsed since the right of search question had called up the papers of both countries, and two years ago a ridiculous cry of French invasion had been raised, and who would have believed that this year 560 Frenchmen would visit England, and that in the presence of such a large meeting, a body of Frenchmen should be so enthusiastically received? They had been called Utopian, but he thought that all the auguries were in their favour. They were in the place where the great Anti. Core- law League had been established, they had one of the heroes of the campaign, Mr. Bright, they deeply regretted the absence of Mr. Cobden, and were not the proceedings of this even ing presided over by Mr, Wilson, the chairman of the League. They had the same batthefield, and he did not see any reason why they should not have the same triumph. M. GARNIER then proceeded to address the meeting in French to the , effect that he regretted not being sufficiently versed in English to address the meeting in that language; but he was so far competent as to catch some expressions which fell from the chairman, respectiug the flight of Louis Phi lippe to England, and his mind had ,instantly reverted to the causes of that event—a reckless expendi ture in the instruments of war, in the absurd fortifications which might yet perhaps be used to build houses. The philosophers of France dur ing the last century had examined the prin ciples of commercial liberty, but it had remained for Manchester to show that commercial liberty was not an Utopian idea. He deplored the existence of an armed peace. During his three days visit in England he had gone from wonder to wonder, and the greatest of all seemed to him to be this meeting.— (Hear, hear.) He regretted that the greatest poets of France, Victor Hugo, Lamartine, and Beranger, all friends of peace, were not present at this meeting, to embody this meet ing in a glorious ode, which should take the place of the Rule Britannia" and " Marseillaise." Mr. POTONIER next addressed the meeting in French to this effect:—He was happy and proud to find himself in the Temple of Free Trade, and in a city which had secured commercial freedom for this country,and perhaps for all the world. There were individuals in France who could appreciate the brightness of the idea, because it was associated with the ideas of progress and liberty. Light was beginning to penetrate France, and even as far as some of the greatest rrutectionists iu-tho °ham. ber, for one of that party had lately moved for the im portation of English printed goods, not for the use of French ladies, but fur purposes of ro-exportation. He looked forward with great pleasure to the exposition of arts which was contemplated in England. He concluded by wishing prosperity to the interests of England. Dr. BEARD moved " That this meeting, considering the greatness of the work to be accomplished, calls upon all patriots and Christians for renewed personal and pe cuniary assistance, in the prosecution of the efforts for the abolition of the system of war." Ile wished to express to the meeting the deep gratification they had given to him, by flocking together to welcome their friends from the other side of the Channel. It had been said that this was a magnificent spectacle, but strangers did not know what a magnificent spectacle was—if ho were to say that the! wealth of Manchester, the science, and -the intelligence, he was sure no ono would be able to contradict it. In this audience, ho fancied be could see what would soon be the case, not in Manchester, or England, or in France, but all over the world—countenances and minds which would disdain to appeal to brute force to settle all the disputes which might arise among them. Good men were generally in the minority; but when they appealed to bad means for a good;end, they put themselves on a level with the majority. He thought that moral force alone, which was divine and came from God, was irresistible. President MAHON, of the Oberlin College, Ohio, Uni ted States, se onded the resolution. After a vote of thanks to the Chairman, the large meeting separated at a late hour. Ceylon Rifle Regiment—Lieutenant Charles Theo philus Clement to be Captain, without purchase, vice Remmett, deceased, Oct. 25. BREVET.—Captain Caesar Bacon, of the 6th Foot, to be Major in the Army, Jan. 10, 1837.

In the attack made upon Can ton in March, 1841, he enacted a very conspicuous part, as he subsequently did in the operations re newed in the following May against that place, and subsequently aided in the capture of Amoy. He was appointed to command the Medea, steam-sloop, January, 1847, and took her to the East Indies and China, and was removed to the acting command of the Melampus, 42, en the late Captain Campbell invaliding, and that ship he paid off about two months since.

W., being then in the narrowest part of the channel, you will shoalen into five fathoms and again deepen into six or seven fathoms inside the river. At low water you will not have less than three and a half fathoms in the channel with the above bearing of the Pilot Bush. With the Pilot Bush N. ; IE7, Elephant N.W. by W. W. you are on the edge of the Spit; with the Pilot Bush N. k E , Elephant N.W. by W. W. you are on the edge of the one-and-half fathom bank; with Pilot Bush N. to N. W. you are on this bank with the same bearings of the Elephant. Having entered the river, keep on the west side to avoid au extensive mud flat that runs out half the river's width from the cast side ; being abreast of Basscen Creek on the west side, you .must edge over to the east ern side to avoid the De Silva Sand, situated about one t'lird from the western side, and directly abreast of a steclta , le on the same side of the river ; while you avoid this danger (which has a fathom at low water), you must be careful' not to get set into Choke Bight, whore the tide sets very strong, and the water very deep, 16 to 17 fathome. Having passed the Chokey, the river be comes more narrow, but it is free or danger • - being abreast of the stockade on the point above the Clokey, and on the same bank of the river, keep on the east side of the river, to avoid the 521130 sand that runs parallel with the western bank, from the commencement of the Dallah high trees to Dallah point ; whrn Rangoon Reach is well open, haul to the westward to pass between the north end of the Larn Saud and the Nesting Sand. This rand is situated at the junction of the Pegue and Rangoon Reach, and extends some distance - up the Rangoon Reach. The You- e-thet high trees kept a quarter of a ship's length open south of the King's Wharf is a good leading mark for this channel. Having passed this danger, you can steer to anchor at discretion abreast of the ita",-staff. _ liEbienics.—During the springs in the S.W. monsoon it at times blows very strong, when great care should be taken not to get eastward (in cloudy weather) of the middle ground between which and the Zingut Moun tains or Martaban shore the sands extend a long way to seaward, over which the Bore rushes with the flood, which makes it very dangerous when near them. As a general remark, applicable to the whole coast from Am herst to Point Fenian, when the position of a ship is not known, and you get into hard sounding, you should haul to the southward to get into soft sounding. While in soft sounding, with good anchor and cable judiciously used, a ship will seldom drive on the flood tide s unless it blows a gale of wind, which is seldom known on this coast.

SUPPLY OF MILK TO LONDON.—The London and North-Western Company have made arrangements for the carriage of milk from Willesden, Sudbury, Pinner, Aylesbury, and other numerous places on their line. They engage to bring it for id. a gallon from Willesden and other places classed together; lid. per gallon from Cheddington and other places classed. Milk sells in London for is. 4d. a gallon. We do not know exactly the price of milk in the several places named, but, judg ing from the price of it in other country places, we should say it is not higher than Bd, a gallon. or half the London price. The cost of carriage will admit of a large profit in London, even under reduced London prices. Farmers and cowkeepers will find an inexhaustible market for their milk, at a price which, before the ex istence of the arrangement just made, they could not hope to obtain; and the inhabitants of the metropolis will have the advantage of having country,pupplics as though they were living in the country.—Herepatlea Journal. FATAL ACCIDENT AT CAMBRIDGE.—OII Wednes day evening last Mr. Ord, of Caius College, and a friend, were taking horse exercise between Swaffbam and Bottisham, in this county ; they had started on their re turn home about dusk, when Mr. Orde, who is short sighted, either thinking he saw something in his road, or mistaking the way, suddenly pulled his horse, which was doing a good pace, round on to a bank on the side. The animal stopped short, and rigidly setting his fore-legs, flung Mr. Ordo from his seat. Assistance was immediately rendered by his friend ; the unfortunate gentleman was taken up and found to be insensible. The first medical aid was procured in all haste from Cam bridge, and Mr. Orde was found to be labouring under a concussion of the brain, from which he never rallied, and died on Thursday evening. Mr. Orde was a son of Mr. and Lady Orde, of Rydo Castle, Isle of Wight, and the occurrence was rendered morn distressing from the fact of Mr. Orde, senior, being in such a delicate state as to preclude his presence at Cambridge. Tbo horse was Mr. Ordu's own property, and usually a quiet animal. THE EX-POLICEMAN AT THE MANSION-HOUSE.— With reference to a statement made by William Trafford, an ex-policeman, at the Mansion-house, on Thursday, the Ist inst., before Alderman Carden, we have caused inquiry to be made into the alleged circumstances. The statement bears an imputation of neglect, if not injustice, towards a deserving man by the heads of the metropoli tan police force; but we are informed that Trafford joined in October, 1843, and after completing a service of five years, proved incapable of discharging the duties of his office, and that he resigned in June last, and re ceived a gratuity - of 20/. by order of the Secretary of State. We aro also informed that this van's unfitness arose from a chronic inflammatory condition of the veins of the legs, proceeding from constitutional causes, and not from any injuries received at the fire at Camden town; and that his conduct did not entitle him to a certi ficate of good conduct in the police; he, therefore, only received a certificate of his having resigned according to the regulations of the service.— Times. SWEARING IN OF THE LORD MAYOR ELECT.— Alderman Farncombe, the Lord Mayor Elect, proceeded shortly after 10 o'clock yesterday morning, from the Guildhall to the residence of the Lord Chancellor, to be sworn in before his Lordship. The Lord Mayor Elect was preceded by one of the City Marshals, the City Pleaders, Under-Sheriffs, City Remembrancer, the Town Clerk, and other civic functionaries. The Lord Chan. cellor signified to the worthy Alderman her Majesty's approbation of the choice of the citizens; and, after having been sworn in, the Alderman, and those who ac companied him, withdrew. NEW HIGH PRESSURE STEAM GAUGE. This gauge, which is more particularly applicable to locomo tives and high pressure engines, is the invention of Mr. Wrather, and consists simply of a small plunger, fitted steam -tight into a cylinde r , th e u pp er p art o f t h e plunger passing through a spiral spring, to which it is attached, and having connected to it a hand to indicate the pres sure, which hand is made to revolve on the rise of the plunger, and points to a number on a circular plate equivalent to the pressure. The whole is extremely simple, and can be placed under lock and key; and, by an improvement recently introduced, is made to register on a card the variations of pressure in a boiler during a day's work. The necessity for an efficient, portable, ac curate pressure gauge, to show in a clear manner to an uno b s ervant workman the amount of force in a high pressure boiler, is a desideratum long looked for bythose who desire to diminish the risk of loss of life and limb.— Architect and Building Operative. TRIAL Ey LOT WITH A *JURY AT LEEDS.--A. young female named Leggot, of respectable connexions, and whose father keeps a music shop in Leeds, was tried at the Leeds Borough Sessions, which terminated on Monday last, on the charge of stealing a violin from the shop of Mr. Muff, a gentleman engaged in the same trade. The jury wrangled about the verdict for upwards of three hours without being able to come to a decision, and then,,t that ae i in e or o nm r e d i enoref determined to oraevedo jurors d ue do b er e s i t n hw g eh pluoocwiknoetudbl would p n oa lot.tl gdlaitvyewouanps a S g u r n e d e a d y their opinions should draw two pieces of quill pen of unequal length, a n d t h at i f the short piece came out first the verdict should be guilty, and if the long one it should be not guilty. The short piece happening to be first drawn, the jury at once walked into court, and upon their oaths, w hi c h b oun d th em to return a true verdict according to the evidence, pronounced the pri soner guilty. Under the recommendation of the Re corder, who presided at the trial, the fact, embodied m the affidavits of three of the jurymen, has been sent to the Secretary of State for the Home Department, with a memorial praying for his interference in the matter. FOREIGN CHESNUTS.—Very large importations of chesnuts have commenced taking place, from Frans. especially, and also from the Channel Islands and other places. The vessel George, from St. Malo, has brought 18 tons weight; the Pearl, from St. Male, 15 tons; the Carolinda, from Redon (France), 30 tons; the Augus tine, from Redon, 37 tons; the Spy, from St. Malo, 15 tons; and the No Joke, from St. Maio, an entire cargo of this production of nut, the produce of France and the Channel Islands mentioned. The chesnuts now im ported are of a remarkable large size, and fine quality, and it is remarked that those brought at the present time from France are the largest ever imported into this country from that or any other foreign state. -7' ------, . - - i — -) , ' . • , ' . - , ..- 7 . i I / - _44111141";1,11-,- .-- - t- ,- i • It) EV4I , L. : - e - -x- . „______ -- -- al' 1- - 3 , k 4 4. - abov© was written, in were not on it is posst , tire last,the tops of these trees ' l / 4 ,, ,, ,);,..,,r ) 4.0 , , r fk., , S, • '4? ...'

The Serpent, 12, Commander Barker, went out of harbour and anchored at Spithead this :afternoon. She will sail, it is said, on Sunday, for the East India station. She will not touch at the Cape. We regret to announce a melancholy accident which occurred on Wednesday to the son of Mr. Harvey, the esteemed secretary to Rear• Admiral Prescott, of this dockyard. The young gentleman was amusing himself in the fields of Fratton shooting birds; and having occasion to cross a fence was im prudent enough (notwithstanding the numerous fatal examples of the consequences of such an act) to drag his gun at full cock after him. A twig caught the lock, and discharged the contents of the gun into the left shoulder of the inexperienced sportsman, inflict ing dreadful injuries to his person. He lies in a highly precarious state at the house of his father, receiving the m )st skilful surgical assistance from the medichl staff of the dockyard and others.

RELATING TO THE PILOTAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR ENTERING RANGOON RIVER. Rangoon, Aug. '2l, 1849. Sir, —I b e g your acceptance of the inclosed copy of Sailing Directions for entering Rangoon River. (Signed', C. M. CRISP. Captain G. A. Heisted, R N., Secretary, Lloyd's. DIRECTIONS FOR ENTERING RANGOON RIVER. (By C. M. Cum..) Ships bound to Rangoon ' in either monsoon, should make the land t en to twelve miles southward of the Elephant Point. The coast being very low, will not be seen until in 44 to 411 fathoms at low water. Thirteen miles south of the Elephant Point there are two or three straggling Palmyra trees, which are a certain mark to know the land, as there are no trees of this kind farther to the southward. Immediately after these are seen two remarkably tall Palmyra trees will be seen. (Since the does, I , •' ' , ,
