ADDRESS TO THE DISSENTING CONGREGA TIONS AND ANTI-CORN-LAW ASSOCIATIONS IN AND AROUND LONDON. Esteemed Friends, From a circular issued by the Edinburgh Anti-Corn-law Conference, I learn that "it is understood that means are at present in progress in London for providino. Lodging., free of expense, for all the Delegates (to the London Conference of the Bth of February) from distant places." In a letter which I have also just received from Mr. Joseph Sturge, he says, " I hope you have formed a Committee to secure Lodgings free of cha-ge to our Scotch friends when they come to London, and written them where to apply when they come to town. If private hospitality Will not provide this, I should be glad to subscribe towards paying it at a boarding-house. The Dissent ing Congregations, if applied to, would, I think, find accom modation." I hope there will be no difficulty in your affording private accommodation, at least to Clerical and Lay Deputies, from all provincial religious bodies, and, if possible, to Depu.. ties from Associations also." As it is expected that a thousand Deputies will be present at the Conference, let me recommend to our friends to secure the we of some public Hall or Room in their respective dis tricts for every evening of the week of the Conference. 'I he public will be addressed by successive Deputations in each locality ; and each evening a Public Meeting will also be held at the Crown and Anchor. I remain.your faithful servant; SIDNEY SMITH. 448, Strand, London, Jan. 28, 1842. LONDON, MONDAY, J ANUABX 31, 1842. ROYAL POLYTECHNIC INSTITU TION, 309, REGENT-STREET.

Smith, Payne, and Smiths, for 3001., will be entitled to draw in the presence of the Court of Directors, from a wheel in which the registry numbers of all unsold allotments have been deposited, with special precautions for their security and fur the fairness of the proceeding. The register of the original ballot will then show to the party d►awing any number, to what rights of priority of choice he is entitled. 4. Applicants, therefore, will obtain preliminary . allotments, on precisely the same terms, with respect to price and the chances of priority of choice, as original purchasers. 5. A list of the registry numbers, with the rights of choice which were attached to each by the original ballot, may be seen at the New Zealand House,`on application to the Secretary. 6. Present purchasers will be entitled to the same privileges, in respect to an allowance for cabin passages (not exceeding 25 per cent. on the purchase money), as those who bought allot ments before the general ballot. 7. Purchasers not proceeding to New Zealand will be en titled to delegate their rights of choice to any agent whom they may nom►nate ;.or, it they should prefer it, such choice will be exercised on their behalf by the officers of the Company.

The object of this Company i s tweanneet Gravesend w:th S;rood, Rochester, Brampton, and Chatham, lifeonvertine; the Thames and Medway Canal into a • Railway: Satisfactory arrangements have been made with the Thames and Medway Canal Company. The cost of making the Railway, including Land, Stations Engines, Carriages, and Working Stock, is estimated at ; but in order to meet every contingency, it is pro posed to raise 150,0004 by the Issue of 6,000 shares of 251. each, upon as hich a deposit of 21. - 10 s. per share is to be made.

The number cf Passengers largod a erska - iked on the Piers at Gravesend, between the Ist of August, 1510, and the Ist of August, 1811, was 963,650. It is estimated that there will be at least 750,000 Passengers annually conveyed upon this Railway, producing, according to a moderate calculation, :36,2501., to which may be :tided 1 250/. for goeds, parcels, &c. ; thus making the total receipts 37,500/., which, after de ducting 13,500/. for the working expenses of the Line, will leave a net annual revenue of 24,000/., equal to 8 per cent. upon an assumed Capital of 300,000/.. This is founded upon merely doubling the existing traffic: ; whereas the result of almost every other line of Railway would justify a much larger increase. The Provisional Committee have submitted the plan of this Railway to Mr. Rastrick, who has reported most favourably 'upon it, as havinr , advantages which are not possessed by other Railways, and which cannot fail to make it a safe investment for capital. It i; intended to apply to Parliament in the ensuing Session for power to carry the above undertaking into effect, and such Shareholders in the Thames and Medway Canal Company as are de&irous of taking Shares in the further Capital are re quested to signify their intention immediately.

HUMAN LIFE.-At p resen t the popul ar opinion is, that the natural duration of life is 70 years, but this is contrary to both sacred and profane history. This opinion is, no doubt, founded on a misunderstanding of a passage of the 80th Psalm, where it is indeed stated, " That the days of our years are threescore years and ten, end if, by reason of strength, they be fourscore )ears, yet is their s!rength labour and sorrow." Now, it must be remembered, that this Psalm is ascribed to Moses, and that he is not speaking of the lives of men in general, but of what was occurring among the Israelites in the wilderness. They died not a natural death, but were cut off for their sin and unbelief by judicial dispensations. The clever Dr. Farre maintains, that 1.20 is the last grant of God to man, and quotes the sixth. chapter of Genesis, and the 3d verse, where it is written, ‘. My spirt shall riot always strive with man, for that he also is flesh ; yet his days shall be an hun dred and twenty years." Now, we find this expressed inten tion on the part ot Godgradually carried into effeet—theprinci pie of vitality appearing to become weaker until the close of the era in which the postdiluvian patriarchs flourished ; when although several centuries had elapsed since the Deluge, we find that one hundred and twenty years was about the average of human ex'stence. Supposing, then, that the theory of long life is well sustained, the qu:stion naturally is suggested how are we to attain what is so desirable? A wise general, on the eve of bottle, makes a proper disposition of his forces be forehand, and does not wait till the enemy has made an attack, and thus, by forethought and due preparation, reasonably ex pects a victory ;—thus, he who has a desire to att a i n a healthy, and, consequently, happy old age, does . not indolently those, hew MEDI CINE wait for the attack of the enemy, which is sickness, but is t S ies it constantly on his guard against his insidiousr a p proae b es, by paying proper attention to the state of his health. Many would fain occasionally use medicine to assist nature in her operations; but, like a mariner at sea without his compass, receives;Pses'e a th ss e is b ts al t s h am e balsamic powers it knowing not where to steer, they first try this, and then that, s stomach to welcomeai d e i e s t must with ti that habt be the nothing ini required,mg po b r u t atnh d te i ia a fie p nt p e, o t i h n attm tonice p n pA i °ap t ; con tains invariably restores the stomach to a healthy longing for food ; or, in other words, it produces a good appet i te, so properlyg ent le stimulating digest much envied, but so seldom enjoyed, by the invalid ; the bestows on the system produces that delightful feeling of good spirits so very desirable, and disposes both mind and the Po fOo e d " itt t body to healthy exercise ; everything under its influence soon wears a joyous aspect, and the varied duties of life are performed with pleasure. It, in addition, contains a fine sedative quality, and, instead of long and weary nights, gives sound and refreshing sleep. If the stomach and bo we l s require it, it act s as t h e mildest and most agreeable purgati ve, and, by its cleansing pow e rs, totally eradicates a redundancy of bile, and completely removes all obstructions of the intestinal ,canal. To have produced a medicine so benign and mild in its ope ration and effects, and 'yet so effectual in searching out and curing disease of however long standing, exhibiting, on the part of Old Parr, deep research and a thorough knowledge of his subject:. Those who have been the instruments of restor ing this long lost secret to the world, feel confident when they make the assertion—that none need despair, that if only a fair trial be given, the result will be a restorati o n to health and hap piness THE BUDGET, No. V.

This Work, a Seventh Edition of which is now presented to the public, ten thousand copies have been exhausted since its first appearance, has been very much improved and enlarged by the addition of a more extended and clear detail of general principles, as also by the insertion of several new and highly in teresting cases. The book, as has been already stated, is the result of very ample and daily increasing experience in a class of diseases, which, for some unaccountable reason, have been either altogether overlooked, or treated almost with indiffer ence, by the ordinary medica practitioner. The proverbial and well known rapacity of unqualified practitioners, who traffic on the health and credulity of patients, has been en couraged and aroused .by this supineness, on the part of the regular surgeon. In order t o ob v i a t e the pernicious effects sure to result from the practices of such pretenders, the authors have for a considerable time devoted themselves ex clusively to a certain class of diseases; of the necessity of s• doing, they were further convinced by feeling that tact in in vestigating the latent sources of many diseases, which arise from certain secret praetices, can only be acquired by an ex clusive and undivided attention to this department of medical practice. The numberless instances daily occurring, whersin affections of the lungs, putting on all the outer appearances o f consumption, which, however, when traced to their source, are found to result from certain baneful practices, fully proves that. the principle of the division of labour, is nowhere more applicable than in medical practice. We feel no hesitation in saying that there is no member of society by whom the book will not be found useful, whether such person hold the relation of a Parent, a Preceptor, or a Clergyman. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved Child pining away, and fast auproaching to a premature grave, in conse quence of seine disease, which, for want of careful investiga tion of its real cause, has been set down to the score of con sumption, will, on perusing this work, be astonished to find, that in nine-tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary, consumption, heart disease, tahes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits practised by youth much more frequently than it is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds (temporarily at least), the relation and responsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, ho directed and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often con cealed practises so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be com promised, unless the evil be arrested In proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real causes of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The. CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character is at once concentrated the two-fold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits to which youth is addicted ; he will also be enabled to.point out the dis- astrous consequences which are sure to follow from them if not relinquished.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. an article in your paper of the 25th on Mr. Wackerbarth and his pamphlet, you ve,ity shrewdly con jecture that he has not made his last recantation. As I was a student at Camblidge at the same time as Mr. Wackerbarth, and as his career there was not less sin gular than it has been since he left it, perhaps it may be of use to your readers to know something more about him. He had the unusual notoriety of belonging to three colleges, being first at Trinity, then migrating to Corpus, and then to Queen's. Ile was a young man of fine taste in languages, music, &c., but always intemperate m the expression of his opinions—very Tory, and very High Church. For a short interval he was bitten w ith th e Evangelical or Low Church doctrines, but this did not last long. He soon returned to his first love, to the Saxon Chronicles and the RoMan Missal. The Bishop of Lichfield, whose censure he fell undo., was his College tutor, and is doubtless alluded to in the passage you quote as the person who'got into the apos tolic order " as the pay of simonious electioneering service."

A UNIVERSITY MAN. • FACTS FOR THSSABBATARIANSr (From the Edinburgh Observer.) So far back as thelegitining of the month of De cember, a.circular was sent to the superintendents of police for several of the great towns in England, in name of the Commissioners of Police of this city, the object of which 13 sufficiently indicated in the subjoined queries. Whether this was truly a proceeding by the Board, or why th e resu l t was not commun i ca t e d to the public, may be mutter for consideration of the Board it self: In the meantime, we subjoin the queries, and the answers in the case of Manchester, and are giyen to understand that the answers were similar from New castle and Carlisle. Facts like these are worth a mil lion of speculations. Let the men who sit quietly at home on the Sunday, in the luxuriant enjoyment of their hot joints and well plenished decanters, and yet de nounce the poor man's excursion to the country as Sab bath desecration,—who 101 l in their horse-drawn car riages, yet anathematize the railroad train, answer this document if they can. Be it remembered, that the queries were propounded, and the answers obtained, — not by the Sunday travellers—but by the most rigid Sabbatarian querists " Manchester, Dec. 18, 1841. Sir,—ln answer to your letter of the 16th instant, I have to state, for the information of the Commissioners of Police of the' City of Edinburgh, to the first query— ' Whether there has been any increase in Manchester, and its neighbourhood, of drunkenness, rioting, or other offences on Sundays, in consequence of railway trains running On that day ?'—Most decidedly, No. " In reply to your second query—' If the country pa rishes, on the lines of railways, make any complaints in consequence of such trains being run on Sundays ; and if they have experienced inconvenience by parties and others visiting those parishes who have been conveyed by railways, and getting drunk, riotous, or committing other offences on that day, and thus tending to demoralise the rural parishes ?'—l beg to say, I have had mv at tention constantly turned to the travelling per railway on every day of the week, as well as on the Sunday ; and, from my experience here, I do not believe that any inconvenience has been felt by parties and others visiting the adjoining parishes, who had been conveyed by rail way on Sunday, by their getting drunk, riotous, or any other offences on that day. "In answer to your third iptery---‘ Whether running of railway trains on the Sundays affords fiwilities for the escape o . f depredators, and of the properties or goods which they may have stolen on Saturday nights or Sun day morningsi.and thus being enabled to get the start of a day and escape ?'—l admit railway trains facilitate the escape of depredators every day of the week, but not so much on the Sundays as on other days. I consider there has been a. complete revolution in public matters since the establishment of railways, owing to there being upon an average 9,000 passengers daily arriving in Manchester. " In reply to your fourth query—' It will be obliging if you will furnish me with any statistical, or other infor mation or facts bearing on the subject of railway travel ling on the Sunday ?'—l have to state that the railway Directors in Manchester are men of the highest moral and religious character, and would not permit any dese cration of the Sabbath, which they could possibly pre vent ; and I know their orders are most strict to their servants, to permit no drunken or riotous person to travel by the trains. In conclusion, I beg leaye to add, that, rs a matter of police, I am decidedly of opinion, in which I am supported by the very oldest officers of the force, that the more facilities there Are offiTed to the labouring classes for innocent recreation, the fewer cases of crime are brought before the police. " l am, Sir, your obedient servant, (Signed) " CHA " J. Thomson, Es q ., & e ., &c., RLES SHAW. Police-office, Edinburgh." THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO BRIGHTON.—The preparations at the Pavilion at Brighton, which have been in hand for a considerable period, have received an impetus since the announcement of the intention of her Majesty and Prince Albert to visit the town, by the em ployment of a large number of additional workmen, who are required to work early and late, in order that the necessary arrangements for the reception of the Royal party may be completed by the time announced for their arrival. A meeting of the inhabitants of the town is convened for this evening (Monday), for the purpose of considering in what manner the Queen and her Royal Consort shall be received, so as best to demonstrate the loyalty of the town. MELTING ICE WITH SALT.—During the con tinuance of frost or snow it is a very common practice for pergons to get;rid of the slipperiness of the footways opposite their dwellings by sprinkling a quantity of salt thereon. , The practice, we have reason to believe, is productive of an evil at least as great as that which it professes to remedy, and has beyond doubt been the fruitful source of aggravated colds. Professor Faraday thus speaks of Persons are in the habit of sprink ling salt upon snow before their doors. They could not do a more silly or injurious thing. The result is, to change dry snow or ice at the temperature of 32 deg. to brine at 0. The injurious effect of damp upon the feet at this excessive degree of cold is likely to be ex treme. If, then, any one does, sprinkle salt upon snow in the street, he ought to feel it a matter of conscience to sweep it away immediately." CHRISTENING OF THE PRINCE OF WALES. —ln Liverpool itself there was every disposition on the part of the public to treat the event in a manner be coming the interest it excited and the respect due to the Sovereign and her family. But this disposition met with no seconding on the part of the authorities, who merely interfered in a way to spoil the general holyday, by , treating it in so doubtful a manner that no one could make his mind up whether it would really be a bolyday or not, and the day, eventually, was one of idleness, without being, as it ought to hare been, a day of free enjoyment. This is rather an ominous beginning of the Tory dynasty, which plumes itself on its high loyalty and generous feeling-. Discontent is generally felt and expressed at the conduct of the chief magistrate. People contrast it with what was the conduct of the Liberals when is office, on the occasion of her Majesty's corona tion and marriage. It is not, to.be sure, every one who can be expected to rival the princely hospitalities of Sir Joshua Walmsley on the latter occasion ; but some little indication of the existence of a chief magistrate is to be expected from every Mayor, especially a wealthy Mayor. Never, we believe, since Liverpool was a.Cor poration, would the windows of the Town-hall have been dark on such an occasion as that of Tuesday. If the Mayor did not choose to step out of his way to give a more general entertainment, the least that was to be ex pected from him was to have set an example of hospita lity and of loyal rejoicing by drinking her Majesty's health and that of the young Prince, to as select a party as he pleased, at his official table.—Liverpool Journal. .. . . An appalling occurrence took place at the Bowery Amphitheatre, on Saturday evening. Mr. Da vid Watkins, of 743 Fourth-street, visited the establish ment on that evening with his wife and child, a little girl of about four years, and being unable to get through the crowd at the Bowery entrance, passed around to the en trance on Chrystie-street, intending to enter the Amphi theatre through the Menagerie. Among the animals in the collection was a young leopard, which was supposed to be so tame that it was kept nncaged, and had no se curity except a chain of some eight or ten feet in length. As Mr. Watkins and his family were passing the leopard, it made a .redden spring, and catching the child's head in its mouth, dragged her from her mother's arms. Mrs. Watkins instantly swooned, and fell to the floor. Quite a number of people were in the Menagerie at the time, and their shrieks brought one of the keepers to the spot, who forced the animal to let go its hold upon the child. • The poor creature was found to be dreadfully lacerated about her head and face, one of her eyes nearly torn from its socket, and the flesh torn in a shocking man ner. Every possible assistance was rendered to the lit tle sufferer, and some hopes are entertained of her re covery, though her eye is gone, and should she surviv:„ she will remain greatly disfigured.

A new five act comedy, from the pen of Mr. Bell, of the Atlas newspaper, was produced at this theatre on Saturday with great and deserved success. It is entitled Marriage, and the plot is as follows :—Sir Harry Vivid, M.P. (Mr. Wal lack), a volatile man of fashion, and a recently elected Member of the Lower House, has fallen in love with Adelaide Temple (Mrs. Charles Pet annuli), who, with her guardian, Mr. Wortley (Mr. H. Wallack), is on a visit to Lady Belgrave in London. She returns his love; but, from a. spirit of coquetry, conceals from him the con quest he has made. Baldwin (Mr. Stuart), the villain of the piece, a man who has ruined himself by gambling, also loves Miss Tem ple; and, in order to destroy all Sir Har ry's prospects, he plots with Drouk (Mr. Webster) one of his gambling associates, to take advantage of Sir Harry's fickleneSs, so as to render a union between Sir Harry and Ade laide Temple impossible. A charity bazaar is given by a Lady Pierrepoiut, and Baldwin takes a stall for Clara Irwin (Mrs. Edwin Yarnold), a simple country girl, over whom he seems to pos sess some mysterious influence. Sir Harry sees her, is smitten with her, accompanies her home, and is by her introduced to Drouk as her fa ther. Baldwin immediately circulates far and wide the story of Sir Harry's attachment to Clara, and in order to destroy him altogether in the es timation of Adelaide, who is a girl of strongaris tccratic prejudices, he induces the members of the Pro Bona Public° Society, a Society for opening, highways and removing fences, to re quest Sir Harry to take the chair at one of their meetings. He writes a note, refusing the pro terred honour in rather a brusque sort of style, and at the same time, in reply to the note of Clara's, asking to see her the following day, writes her word that he shall be happy to attend to her wishes: By same mischance, Clara's note is sent to the PiO Bono Public° people, who are delighted at his condescension, and their note is , ent - to Clara, who is disgusted at his rudeness. Adelaid Temple, piqued at Sir Harry's neglect, suffers Balchlin to make love to her. and to repeat that they are about to be united. His schemes, however, fail, just as they seem on the point of succeeding. Clara confesses the whole scheme to Sir Harry, states that she is an orphan, who had been left by her flatter under the guardianship of Baldwin, who at that time bore the name of Mordaunt. He became a gambler, lost his fortune, and under the name of Baldwin sought refuge in London. She loved him, fol lowed him, and was induced to aid his scheme against Sir Harry, but when she perceives that the result of his success must be to make him another's, she reveals all. Sir Harry andlAdelaide are of course reconciled, and confess their mu tual attachment. Baldwin says, as all villains say at the end of the fifth act, that he intends re. forming, and makes a tender of his heart and hand to Clara, and so all ends happily. There is an underplot, in which a Mr. Cavendish Parose (admirably acted by Wrench) a sort of modern Solus, who doubts and hesitatel, as to committing matrimony all through the play, takes a principal part. and in which a Mr. and Mrs. Doubtful (Strickland and.giss Maywood) create an infinite deal of fun by their very '• amusing domestic infelicity, he having been up to the month previously a fretful old bachelor ; but having married his young ward he thinks it incumbent on him to thwart her inclinations in every thing, while she, having high notions of her own rightsand dignity, is equally determined to thwart Mr. Doubtful. Sir Harry Vivid was admirably played by Wallack, who reminded us not unfrequently of Elliston. Mr. Stuart as Baldwin was very good. His opening scene with Drouk is one of the most forcible pieces of acting we have ever seen; he was excellently sup ported by 'Webster as Drouk, whose cool, busi ness-like villany contrasted admirably with the volcano bursts of passion of Baldwin. The . one was a villain from. nability to resist the impulse of his own headstrong Will; the other because it was his business to be so. It is to be regretted that the author has not worked out the character of Drouk ; it would bear greater development, and would be an agreeable relief to the comedy, which is rather deficient in fun and incident. The dialogue is written with the greatest care ; it is elegant, conversational, and sparkling- with wit at every sentence ; hut it would be improved by curtailment. [t was eleven o'clock before the comedy was .over, and four hours is too. long for any play. Adelaide Temple was performed with great spirit and judgment by Mrs. Charles Pettingall, who has hitherto been known to play-goers as Miss Charles, and Mrs. Edwin Yarnold made a mostluteresting Clara. At the fall of the cur tain the applause was loud and long-continued, and Webster announced the comedy for repetition every night next week. The comedy is exceedingly well put upon the stage, and, in accordance with an ancient custom, now becoming obsolete, it was ushered in by a prologue, delivered with good taste and judgment by Stuart, and was followed by a sprightly epilogue, which received full justice from Mr. Webster and Mrs. Pettin gall. The house was crowded. b THE DIARY AND LETTERS OF THE CELE BRATED MADAME IYARBLAY.—We are requested to state that Mr. Colburn, of Great 'Marlborough-street, has this day published the First Volume, price 10s. 6d. bound, with portrait and fac-similes of " The Diary and Letters of Madame D'Arblay, author of Evelina,' Cecilia,' &c:, including the period of her residence at the Court of Queen Charlotte," edited by her niece, to be completed in about six monthly volumes, uniformly with Agnes Strickland's " Lives of the Queens of Eng land."

BARON PARKE AND THE 'PIKE-MAN.—Last Tuesday Mr. Baron Parke took a short airing in his car riage on the Skelton-road. On arriving within a few yards of the turnpike-gate; the coachman turned the car riage round, and the horses were axon on their return to York. This was too much for the Argus-eyed toll-co'- lector, who was watching the approach of the carriage, as he thought, of a customer. The official could not bear to see himself thus regularly done ; he set out on the hue and cry. On coming up with the driver, the barman made his demand in form, and the squabble made the Learned Baron inquire why the carriage was stop ping, just as the c o achman was about to tip the silver. On being informed that it was a demand for toll, the Baron required the gate-keeper to produce the Act of Parliament which empowered him to collect tolls. The 'pikeman demanded the name of the occupant of the carriage, and was answered, " Baron Parke." The man immediately went back to his cottage by the road-side, and the worthy Judge returned to York. — York courant, 1 4 2- I 4 0 1 50 17 0 fe 01 gef' 65 1 ; ,o' Lath, •
