S O T R A T T I E N R G s A y E E L s E I R G D y 111: CE The Derby betting, as far as it related to the two principal favourites, was more encouraging to their respective parties than has been observable for some days past : —7 to 1 was taken to a trifle about Attila, and 20 to 1 t o 1 001. about Chatham, the subsequent offers being in unison with those prices. Re peated attempts were made to get on about Wiseacre, Ballinkeele ' and Auckland, and i n eac h case without suc cess, until 6 o'clock, when a noble lord laid 33 to 1, to 2001. agst the last of the three, who finished at 30 to I, taken; nothing was done abous-the other two, but they may be quoted at an improvement on Monday's prices. The Dirce colt aria Defier opened and finished as be fore. A few out-ciders were backed, but only Canadian and Palinurus with any spirit.

It other cases, the authority of the Roman Church anti the Greek Church are openly derided by the lion. • Baronet and his friends, and it is for them almost a. stir icient reason to repudiate an opinion or a practice, that is sanctioned by the Pope or the Greek Patriarch. But whenever a doctrine of any Church, or any book, mbserves the prejudices or the power of .a party, that loctrine is immediately endowed with unbounded au hority : whenever it militates against those prejudices, rr is inimical to that power, it is openly flouted, or cast aside with silent contempt. Another arguinent which has been brought against Lord F. EGERTON'S proposition is, that it is contrary to the statute of 25th of Henry VIII., cap. 22, which itself , however, has no higher authority than-the Canon Law of the Roman and Greek Churches, It recites that law, and then forbids, amongst other things, a brother to marry a brother's wife, or a man to marry his wife's sister. Now, it is singular enough, that this law was passed, we have always- understood, mainly to gratify the lust of that king. At that period he had become tired, says the historian " of the person of the Queen," who had been his brother's wife, and in order to promote his object of get dug rid of CATHERINE, he and his subservient Parliament, passed a law, which, in the name of morality and virtue, should tend to set him free from his unpleasant restraints, tnd impose for his lust a series of unnecessary restraints on all the people in future time. But the law, as we Intro said, rests altogether on his will and on the authority of the Church, which, when not expressly based on scrip ture,is to he rejected the more nacient is its source. The New Testament establishes no such prohibition a s that which is on the Statute-book. The Old Testament expressly authorises, in certain circumstances, a man to raise up seed to hiS brother, and warrants, rather than otherwise, the matrimonial connection now in dispute. But in all antiquity the situation and posi tion of women were not such as to recom mend the precepts borrowed from that time, on the rights concerning them then established worthy of our bl;nd acceptance. We have neither space nor time to trace their condition, whether in ancient Judea., Price Gs. cloth. 2. WORDSWORTH'S SONNETS. Price 6s. cloth Edward Moxon, 44,Dever-stmet.

NNUITIES.-=-In the AUSTRALASIAN CO- LONI AL and GENERAL LIFE ASSURANCE and ANNUITY COMPANY, Annuitants participate in the Profits of the Company, and receive a rate of ANNUITY much more favourable than can be granted by any Company making its investments wholly in England. The Company is enabled securely to grant these favourable terms from the ad vantages it possesses of investing a portion of its funds at a high rate of Interest in ancient Greece, or in ancient Rome, through the va rious gradations of slavery, concubinage, and pur chase, in order to show that the Canon law, derived partly from the Roman law and partly from the customs of the barbarians who overturned the Roman empire. ought not, except it be fully confirmed by our own reason and experience, to he of any authority whatever. The position of women in society has been continually im proved as civilization advanced ; and it- is for us to improve it still more ,by doing away with what yet remains in it of their ancient condition of slavery, not to regulate it by the remains of a code which had its origin in a very rude and barbarous state of society. We can see nothing .contrary to the order of nature in that proceeding to which Lord F. EGERTON' seeks to give the sanction of law. We only say, and we believe, he says no more than that such marriages ought not to be prohibited. Men may, on that point, be left to their own discretion. The abolition of the prohibition is asked for by influential individuals who are aggrieved by the restriction, and by some very powerful classes. To tell us that it comes within the prohibited degrees— those degrees having been settled, as Sir R. "Nous says more than fifteen centuries ago, about the time the Lom bards were drinking blood out of skulls, and when murder, to obtain a throne, was a common occurrence, is tanta mount to telling us that we ought to navigate the ocean THEATRE ROYAL, COVENT-GARDEN.

Other topics, we are aware, more immediately interest the public than this; at the same time this is as important a subject for regulation as can well demand the attention of the legislature.

The recent decision of the Judges in Ireland concern ing the marriage of a member of the Church of Englan with a Dissenter ; the discussions on that decision i ?ornament, anti on the Bill which has been introduce, to make the law different from what the Judges 11;;;dc , dared it to be ; the motion or Lord EGERTON on Tues• day for leave to bring in a Bill to amend the marring( law, the debate on which is adjourned till next Wednes. day, and the totally different state of the law as to mar• riage in Scotland and England, must satisfy every mar that however important and sacred is this most im- ►ortant and most sacred of ad civil contracts, the law concerning it is scandalously vague, uncertain and inefficient. In offering some observations, there• fore, on this subject we find it necessary to begin by reminding our readers that between the sanctity of the contract and the enactments concerning it., there is all the distinction and all the difference which exist be tween any great natural fact, such as the tides of the ocean and a blundering and inefficient attempt to de scribe it. We do not mean to say one word concern the contract, or the great advantages of marriage ; our remarks will be exclusively confined to a small part of the law which has been made to regulate and enforce it. namely, that part which Lord F. EGERTON brought under the notice of the House of Commons on Tuesday evening. Marriage being the very foundation of families, no impediment whatever, which cannot be demonstrated to be of over-balancing advantage, ought to be laid in the way of accomplishing marriages. In truth, it is a general rule of the greatest importance, that every legislative restriction being an evil of itself, none should be adopted unless it be clearly proved that the public advantage far surpasses the private injury. It is incumbent on those who prnpose a new restriction or defend an old one, to prove its advantages. Thof:e who resist it have a prima Peitz case, and are at all times justified in requiring the advocates of restrictions to prove their utility. The principal provision of Lord F. EGERTON'S pro posed Bill is, that " a widower should be allowed to marry his deceased wife's sister." Is there anything wrong in that ? The parties are not blood relations. The sister may be supposed to have a b:eat interost in the widower's children, if he have any. A more suitable mother for them probably could not he found. At least it is consistent with our experience that sisters have very generally taken an interest in a sister's off spring while the wife was alive, and after her death. We know no person, unless it be the mother of a deceased wife, so likely as an unmarried sister, to take a deep and permanentjuterest in the welfare of a deceased sister's children. The matrimonial connection which may ensue is so natural and so easy, that it frequently takes place even in spite of the prohibition of the law. In fact, were it not a sort of natural and easy connection, the law would not think of forbidding it. Now, the question was, why has the law, scandalously vague and imperfect as in many cases it ;is, though in this precise, for bidden the widower to marry his deceased wife's sister? Sir R. INGLis fancies, if this restriction did not exist, Le husband and unmarried sister might, in the life time of the wife, form some improper connection, or cease to look on each other as brother and sister. That is one of those lucre fancies which are the founda tion of much mischief. It implies that men will always do all the wickedness they can physically accomplish. Such legislators as Sir E. Nous, who confound the power to do wrong with the actual commission of crime, ought to take away from the butchers their formidable knives, lest they all turn assassins of their fellow creatures. The Hon. Baronet also asserts, that it is enough f or hi m that the universal church, for fifteen centuries, has always forbidden such marriages, that the Church of Rome, and the Greek Church. and the Church of England has always forbidden these marriages. That is for us no argument at all, and the more remote the origin of a practice which at present Cif F.STER CUP. 10 to I agst Mr. Kirby's Lanercost 17 to 1 agst Mr. Plummet's Alice .

PHOTOGRAPHIC PORTRAITURE . ON PAPER, ' PRODUCED BY THE CALOTYPE PROCESS. This new deseription of portraiture, discovered by Mr. Collen, of 29, Somerset-street, Portman-square, Miniature Painter to her Majesty-, forms an attractive exhibition of Fine Art. By ale improved process of the calotype, the photographic power is increased, and has the advantage of being indelible in its impression, while any number of portraits may be obtained from one sit ting. The manner in which Mr. Collen's method acts is thus : By the calotype process, a likeness is produced by the ca mera obscura, through the blackening action of light on chemi cal combinations with silver, which arc introduced into the paper from whence the likeness is taken. The lightest part of the object is thus represented by black on the paper in the camera, whilst the darkest part makes no impression on the paper. This reversed picture (for such it is) is laid on another prepared paper, and is submitted to the influence of light, which, passing through the first, blackens the paper under neath in those parts whi c h h a d not been affected in the camera operation, acd the result obtained is an exact reverse of effect. These likenesses may be multiplied to any extent. The portraits of Count St. Ault-lire, the French Am bassador, Professor Brandt., Mr. Charles Young, and many others whi c h we v i ewe d, were exce ll ent specimens of the rich mezzotint which, under this process, like• nesses assume rind retain.

AN OLD SOLDIER. Some sensation has been created in Madrid by a re port that the Queen and her sister, whilst walking in the gardens of the Retiro, had been fired at, but the Corresponsat gives the following explanation of the affair :—lt appears that a respectable tradesman of Madrid was leaving the capital, on a shooting excursion, with his musket of the National Guard, which was loaded with ball ; and, as it had been loaded for several days, he fired it in the air, in order that he might clean it, and put it in order before he began his sport. The ball passed over the wall of the Retiro, and fell near the Queen and her sister.—A correspondent informs us that the government is on the qui vice, in consequence of the rumours of an intended attempt at counter revolution, and that measures of a strong nature, out of the regular provisions of the laws, are expected to be adopted. —.A letter from Algcsiras states that at Tarifa the most rigid surveillance continued to be exercised. The High Sheriff, E. B. Lonsade, has appointed a divine of the Established Church as chaplain. How much superior to the Christian practice is this liberality of the Hebrew gentleman ! He provides a chaplain of the Judges' religion to attend on their devotions. Had a Jew been Judge and a Christian High-Sheriff, we doubt whether we should not have seen the Hebrew compelled to receive the priest of the Christian.— Nesters Times. THE COURT AND TIMES OF FREDERICK THE GREAT. —This work, just issued, under the editorial auspices of Thomas Campbell, bids fair to take its place in all historical libraries. In a lengthy review of it iii the last number of Riacku'ood's Magaaine, it is justly remarked that—" The late visit of the King of Prussia to England renews the publio interest in the Sovereign and his country. In this feeling, we think, we shall gratify our readers by giving them some sketches of that period, which raised Prussia to the rank of a monarchy, 'and of that extraordinary man of genius, who first made her throne conspicuous in Europe, and asserted for himself one of the highest places among the warriors and statesmen of the modern ss'orld. The above work, whieli sketches the career of Frederick the Great and his immediate predecessor, is .a re tale answdea have intelligent ecollectionve r n t a ,sf r e r et a nr t a ii tf e s ; toh be fe y e Ec o t . ailpm r a t r ics k os a iiia b l ni l , y ak a i n siot i l ra ngi a , t t e an d ne , d v b‘ a e, racier, in themselves as curious as any, perhaps, ever furnished a r T i t o ta ut b by Royal biography. The material is condensed rah such dexterity, and combined with such judiciousness, that we.recsl. Icct but few biographies which have more highly and constantly kept up our attention." FASCINATION.— EDITED Dlr MRS. GORE.— This charming tale seems rapidly proving its claim .to the title Mrs. Gore has bestowed upon it. Its lively, vivid, and pic turesque sketches of French and Getman manners and society during their most picturesque period, its spirited and original draughts of character, and its dramatic cast of plot and in cident, are commanding for it universal perusal. Its " fas cinating" hero, so famous in the romance of real life of the time of Louis X V., the noble , pa.sionate, and devoted Princesse de Soissons, heroine o f th e tale, the three Aulic Councillors, on whose oddities and peculiarities the whole plot turns, the jolly. German boar-hunting Baron, the henpecked Gourmand, the crack •brained scholar, not to forget the igenerour-hearted little tailor and his shrew of a wife—all these first-rate characters, anti half a dozen more of a secondary class, give to this tale a " Fascination" which will no doubt be as irresistible in our ' day as its celebrated hero was in his. IVATER COMP.% NIES.—W“ (lid not, it appears, err greatly in predicting that the opening of the Parliamentary season would present its usual number of projects . f?r new pa large tirig "p ater" : eos p c e o e m t u p s7e n s i e s s y la i e n l o i r m w i e g r l e i t w t e em m p u t ch t l m ae is e ta a k p v it n al i i n st an w t it c h i but visionary profits." The projectors of some of these companies have realty surpassed our expectations ; capital 400,0001., 25,000 houses at 2/. per house, 50,000 r. per annum ; expenses, 1.1 ; 000/. per annum —net amount 36,000/., or 9/. per cent, on capital. Why such moderation, by the way ? why not, have taken credit for 27,000 houses ?—for the one assertion is about as likely to be verified as the other. In the latter case 'there would have been a Let 10 per cent—a lure infinitely more captivating. When it is added that every house of the '25,000 is to be taken by a process of compe tition from the existing companies, it is enough probably to show that our former observations were far from being too strong or unelicited. There is, however, no great risk of such pro jects receiving the sanction of the Legislature. Even were it possible for am Act to be obtained,- the'cxperience of a few short years would cause all connected with such undertakings to call to mind, with feelings of no slight regret, the warning they had neglected. Putting aside the correctness of the estimate of outlay (questioned, it would appear, by those most competent, to form a judgment on the subject) the calculation of income is wholly illusory. For years, any new company would not get enough to pay their expenses, as the existing. companies, driven to despair, would go below the price, what ever it might be, at which the new company would offer to supply ; and if, as tho.result of a long and weary struggle, a compromise should be effected which would assign to a new company some portion of the districts of the old, the income to he derived from it would, even with the assistance of an in. creased charge to the public, not realise 21. per cent. upon the capital expended. We find the following in a letter f rom P erp i gnan : —" The inhabitants of the small town of Ma.ssanet, on the. Spanish side of the fronti e r, were a few days ago celebrating • the fete of their patronal saint, when, in the middle of a dame, in the public square, a man, named Da Costa, saw his bre•ber in-law, who was a Carlin, and with whom he had a family quarrel. Da Costa immediately l e f t hi s pattiter, approached his victim, and in the presence of at least 1,200 persons plunged a dagger twice into his heart, and then went leisurely, and, without being pursued, across the frontier, which was fall three leagues distant." The fltrinblugh Vazette of the 20th nit. publishes the following from a correspondent, as his opinion of the effect which would be produced in Germany by the nrw Corn-laws, proposed by Sir Robert. Peel .—" The sliding-scale o f i m port duties in England on foreign corn, not only prevents safe specu lation in distant ports, but necessitates the purchase of corn in . the ports of the norih of Europe, particularly Hamburgh fi an e d l)antzic.
