CURES EFFECTED BY PARR'S LIFE PILLS.—The following are selected from hosts of other Cures, and must prove that PARR'S LIFE PILLS are all that are required to eradicate disease, however aggravated the case may appear, and to prolong life, free from every ailment, to the latest period of existence : FROM MR. NORLE, HULL. " Mr. Plaxton, of Cottin g ham, five miles from Hull, has long been afflicted with a most severe internal disease. So dreadful were the paroxysms that he frequently expected death cns at hand to release him from his sufferings. For a great lengtls of time he had been unable to sit down at all, even be ing compelled to stand at his meals. His next door neighbour having heard of the virtues and unprecedented success of Parr's Life Pills, purchased a small box for him, and on his calling for a second box, he told me that such had been the astonish ing effects produced by one box that he was able to sit down, and on taking two other boxes his pains have left him ; his ap petite is good, and he is able to follow his vocation nearly as well as he ever did in his life." " Mrs. Shaw, wife of Mr. Shaw, yeast dealer, had been a great length of time afflicted with a severe internal disease. To use his own expression, paying doctors for her had beg gared him,' so that at last he was compelled to send her to the Infirmary ; there she received no permanent benefit. Having heard of Parr's Life Pills, he purchased a small box; she be gan to mend immediately on taking them, and two more boxes have cured her. She is now as well as she ever was in herflife." " Mrs. Stevenson, of Cottingham, five miles from Hull, has been severely afflicted with a bad leg for mote than ten years, and during that period has tried all kinds of medicines, but without any permanent relief. After taking four small boxes of Parr's Life Pills, she is able to go about her day's business in a manner which for comfort has been unknown to her for above ten years. (Signed) " EDMUND STEPHENSON, her Son. " Witness—Joseph Noble." hfoauvretereen e Ll d h f a r v n e tn t p o a a r c r k , s n o L w if l e e dge Pills, with have delight or fifteen ye ars w ith p a i n s in my body and limbs , with constant b e; ntlaefilbenefit fo l r pain in my head. I applied to the first medical men in Hull, and to the various Institutions of the Town, and brought my-. self almost to poverty, but all to no purpose.

The MORNIN3 ADVERTISER having been established by the SOCIETY Of 'LICENSED VICTUALLERS—a body of men with a large stake in the country, living by trade, and inti mately associated with the middle and industrial classes, has its interests indissolubly united with those of the Merchant, the Manufacturer, the Trader, the Operative, the Man of Science, .and all who contribute by mental, moral, or 'physical effort, to increase the stock of common good ; while the number of its Proprietors, amounting upwards of THREE THOU SAND, affords a sure guarantee against its being diverted— as so many other Journals have been—from the honest tenor of political advocacy, to advance the sinister designs of indivi duals. The great aim of . the ADVERTISER being, as already intimated, to increase the general welfare, to improve the con dition of the masses, and to bring the apparently-conflicting interests of society into harmonious action, its desire is to en list every legitimate agency in the peaceful accomplishment of these objects. The MORNING ADVERTISER, from a portion of its profits, and through its agency, distributes nearly NINE 'THOUSAND POUNDS annually for charitable purposes, including the relief by regular weekly allowances of nearly THREE HUNDRED distressed members of the aforesaid So ciety, the temporary relief, by occasional donations of many hundreds of other unfortunate individuals, and the entire maintenance, clothing, and education of ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY orphan and other destitute children of both sexes in the LICENSED VICTUALLERS' SCHOOL, which Institution, since its establishment, has received nearly ONE THOUSAND boys and girls who might otherwise have fallen victims to want, ignorance, and crime. These are claims on public support and sympathy identified with no other newspaper. To LICENSED VICTUALLERS in all parts of the kingdom the MORNING ADVERTISER presents peculiar '4,van tages, publishing the earliest intelligence on all subjects in • teresting to the trade, and affording a medium of communica tion amongst its members, whereby may be best effected that co-operation bet Ween those in Town and Country so essential to the promotion and protection of their common interests. ADVERTISEMENTS receive far more than ordinary publicity by appearing in the MORNING ADVERTISER; for a great portion of its circulation being, in the first instance, in houses of pualic entertainment, it is subsequently distributed through the families using those houses, so that on an ave rage each copy is perused by no less than forty persons ; thus giving to 'a circulation of 5,000 copies, TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND READERS.. In addition to the ordinary News of the Daily Press, and SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE con tained in no other Morning Journal, the ADVERTISER gives careful and early Reviews of new Works of Science, Litera ture, and Art. An Early Edition is published every Morning in time to be transmitted to the Country by the first RAILWAY TRAINS, so that the MORNING ADVERTISER may be placed on the breakfast table of its subscribers 100 miles distant from Town at an hour as early as they would require it if residing in the Metropolis. N.B. The first DonsLz SHEET of the Morning Adver tiser will be published To-morrow (Friday), the 4th inst. THE LOWEST PRICED LONDON DIRECTORY. Small Edition, Eight Shillings.

" The plaintiff's publication was one of considerable bulk, and most probably of great utility : and so the Vice-Chan cellor of England must have thought by granting the injunc tion ox parte, and continuing that proceeding upon motion made to dissolve it." Vide " Times" of 20th December, 1841.—Judgment of his Honour Vice Chancetlor Knight Bruce, confirming the Injunc.• Lion obtained against the " Post-Office Almanac," for pirating Post-Office Directory." The following Reviews of the Complete Directory have al ready appeared : Times, December 3, 1841. This useful matter-of-fact volume has just been published by Messrs. Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell -court, Temple-bar, and will no doubt be, as it ought to be, in the hands of every merchant, banker, and tradesman in the country. It is, independently of its utility, by whi c h it is renderedindis pensable to every counting-house and shop, a curious sta tistical monument of the extent, importance, trade, and wealth of the metropolis, and as such a document deserving the attention even of persons who are not immediately in terested in commercial and business pursuits. The present volume for 1842 contains some important new matter, with rhich the preceding volumes were not furnished—it has an im po'rtant addition, " The official Directory," an alphabetical list of all persons holding situations under the Crown, of all persons holding situations in the East India House, in the Bank of England, and in the various law, city offices, and all other public offices. This addition is of itself enough to show the great pains taken by the Proprietors to render the book per f ec t. 'There is also some useful information given relative to the " Money Order-office," to which, if the public would pay more attention than they have hitherto done, less would be heard of the loss of money by the'transmission of remittances by post in the manner usually adopted. The number of stamps issued to the various newspapers published throughout England and Wales is given, together with the amount of stamp ditties on advertisements paid by each paper respectively, and, indeed a mass of information is brought together from which the best informed may derive some increase of knowledge, and to which the attention of the most ignorant and careless can hardly be called in vain. As far as the cursory examination can justify an opinion, and it is next to impossible to pay to such a work as this the minute attention it deserves, it appears to be compiled with indefatigable industry, extreme vigilance, and an excellent judgment for arrangement. Morning Chronicle, December 21, 1841. We have had occasion to commend the extraordinary diligence and accuracy shown in getting up the " Post-office Directory" for former years, and no less praise is due to the publication of the present volume. It contains the same immense mass of information relative to the metropolis, which renders the work one of the most astonishing monuments of the greatness of London that can well be conceived. This information appears classified, distributed and arranged in a variety of ways so as to make the facility of reference nearly perfect. The corrections necessary from the changes of a year appear, as far as it is possible to judge, to have been carefully made, and it would he difficult to over-estimate the labour involved in such corrections. We recommend it to the favourable consi deration of the public ; and, in fact, it must be regarded as indis pensable in every house or office where business is trans acted. To those, if there. be any, who have not seen it, it convey the best notion of the variety of its contents to say, that the single volume of 1,500 pages contains a Streets' Directory —Trades' Directory—Law Directory—City—Parliamentary— Courts—Postage—Banking, -and Official and Conveyance Directories—each a large work, and complete in itself ; though the whole are requisite to a publication which professes to be a Directory for London. Morning Herald, Nov. 30, 1841. This is a mast complete and extremely useful work. It em braces every point of interest in and near the metropolis that can affect the wants of the community at large, and is service able to all classes of society. Under one general head, it con tains a series of Directories, in which are,enumerated all the trades, streets, names, official designations, Parliamentary, legal, banking, and Post-office references, that are in daily re quisition ; and, while it is of the most ample dimensions (ex tending over 1,500 pages) is accurate in the minutest particu. lars. N i o t. public office or mercantile house should, in fact, be without Morning Post, December 29, 1841. . The charge, whether true or false, brought against the " Annuals," that, however pretty they may be, they are of little or no use, cannot in any degree apply to this singular publication. Within the single volume, neatly brought out by Messrs Kelly and Co., of Old Boswell-court, Temple-bar, is comprised all the information that can be useful to the fashionable, legal, or commercial communities. "It in cludes a " Court Directory," which alone contains about five and-twenty thousand names; a " Law Directory" of the most ample description, giving, among other details, no fewer than sixteen large pages of a " General List of Stamps ;" an Official Directory," with an index of six thousand persons holding situations under the Crown, in the Bank, the East India House, and other public departments ; the " Commer cial Directory," perhaps the fullest and most complete that has ever yet appeared, and a variety of miscellaneous matter which it is impossible to particularise here. In short, from our own observation, we can safely pronounce this work a sine qua non to everybody who desires to become acquainted with the great metropolitan world of London. Shipping and Mercantile Gazette, Dec. 22, 1841. On our reference from time to time to the Post-office Direc tory of 1134 1 , we felt convinced that nothing could have been produced more perfect for the purposes for which the huge compilation was designed ; it appears, however, we were mis taken. The thick volume before us is vastly superior to the last, and is unquestionably " the most complete work of the kind ever published ;" the information is so judiciously classi tied, that although it extends over some fifteen hundred large closely printed pages, every department of the compilation might be consulted in a few seconds. It is surprising how such a mass of intelligence can bare bead collected and ar ranged so accurately, expeditiously, and cheaply, neither of whieh could of course be accomplished without the extensive and peculiar resources of the General Post-office. No count ing-house, coffee-room, of public office, should be without this excellent record. Sun, November 25, 1841. We have great pleasure in noticing this useful work, of which we have received an early copy. It exceeds the size of the Directory of last year, and probably is the most complete and correct town-guide yet rublished. The following outline of the contents will enable the reader to form some idea of the vast undertaking. It contains an Official Directory, with the names alphabetically arranged, of all civil officers under-Go vernment, in the Bank of England, East India House, and all other public establishments. A Street Directory, which in cludes gentry as well as traders; and subjoined t o thi s , are t wo others, giving the names at full length, of s i xty t h ousan d per. Weekly Dispatch, Nov. 28, 1841. We have been favoured with a sight of this elaborate work; and we must pronounce it vastly superior to the previous vo lumes. The contents are admirably arranged. There is a dis tinct alphabetical list of the names, in number, of all civil officers under Government, in the Bank of England, East India House, and all other public establishments ; an alphabetical list of streets in the metropolis. and its vicinity, with the inhabit ants according to their numerical order in each s t ree t ; t h e on l y Street Directory yet published which includes gentry as well as traders. There is also a list of all officers, from the Lord Chan cellor down to the Usher of the most inferior Court; Police Courts, with their officers and jurisdictions ; alphabetical lists of Queen's Serjeants, Queen's Counsel, Sergeants at law, Benchers, Barristers. Special Pleaders, Conveyancers,Proctors, Attorneys, Notaries, &c. The narries_ofall Krems in the metropolis and its immediate vicinity riot eriCagetl-TV trade,, are given with the most accurate lists yet published of the New Parliament, and the most - rect nt addresses of the Member* of both Houses. There are, besides, the name and addresses of City Officers and Common Councilmen ; City Companies and their clerks ; lists of sworn brokers; Lieutenancy of the City, &c. A list is given of all the principal places in England, Ireland, and Scot land, distinguishing those which grant and pay money orders, and referring to the money-order office nearest to those which do not; and an alphabetical list of the streets of London, with a reference from each to the nearest receiving-house which grants and pays money-orders. This will afford the opportunity in all cases, in town and country, of applying to the nearest office for a money-order, and of obtaining it upon the office most contiguous to the residence of the . party in whose favour it is drawn. Another important introduction this year shows the time at which a letter from London shoald he delivered at any place in England or Wales, and the time at which the letter-box for London closes in each place; thus affording the opportunity of calculating in all cases the " return of post." Independent of all this informa tion, we have copious accounts of all conveyances by railways, stage-coaches, waggons, vans, carts, vessels, barges, and boats ; with complete accounts of all the bankers, joint-stock banks, and banking establishments of the United Kingdom ; the names of the Directors and officers of the various Assurance Companies, with the rates of Assurance, &c., are also furnished in ample detail. One great feature in this work is, that it directs an individual to the position of any number in the street, by noting the intersection of churches, courts, streets, lanes, Alleys, &c., between one house and another. It often happens that a person may forget the name of the tradesman he wants, although he knows the street. The . Street Direc tory in this book helps him out of this difficulty by giving the names of the inhabitant's of each house of No. 1 upwards. Sunday Times, December 5, 1841. This useful work is just published ; it is, in short, a com mercial, trades, law, court, parliamentary, city, postage, con veyance, banking, and an official Directory. It contains an almanack, list of stamp duties, POst-office rules, and, in fact, a body of intelligence to great for detail. Respecting :the accuracy of such a work, it is, of course, impossible to speak ; the most inveterate Magliabechi that ever gulped quartos, or bolted folios, would scarcely undertake the perusal of a Direc tory. It is not saying too much to declare that the Post-office Directory is a work unexampled even in this country. To ap proximate closely to the communication of the names, resi dences, and trades of the inhabitants of London, is a task from which a literary Hercules might flinch. Railway Magazine, December 4, 1841. Judging from the great superiority of the last edition of this work over its competitors, we did not anticipate the improve ments which have been effected in the present, which not only place this Directory at the head of the list, but must drive the others out of the field. An entirely new division has-been introduced, viz., the " Official Directory," which furnishes the full names and positions of all persons holding public situations under Government, the East India Company, the Bank, &c. The scope of that important branch, the " Street Directory," has been very considerably extended ; and thou sands which urbooks of included, who reference reide h withoutave notth e narrowbefore passed: limits beyond here we have a register of all, whether dwelling in Barns bury Park, Basinghall-street, or Belgrave-square, in King's road, Chelsea, or in Kingsland ; and one of the great advan tages peculiar to this publication is, that all inhabitants are inserted in their nu t. erical order. We know of no other street list in which either all the gentry, or all the mer chants, traders, and tradesmen are not—incredible as the fact may appear—entirely omitted. We-may mention that it gives the names of the Directors of most of the Railway and Insurance Companies, and a complete List of Officers of Joint- Stock Companies. The " Parliamentary Directory" is co pious ; in it the offices held by every Peer and Commoner are accurately detailed, even to the recent appointment of Lord Ellenborough as Governor-General of India, and of his suc cessor at the India Board, Lord Fitzgerald. The " Postage Directory " furnishes much original and highly valuable in formation in reference to Money Orders, and to the precise time of the deliveries of letters throughout the country. A volume so valuable as this will be generally appreciated. It does honour to the establishment which can put forth so vast an amount of authentic information of character so diversified ; and it reflects credit on those who have so arranged it that the work is equally a model of compilation and of typography. We cannot but think that a title more appropriate than merely " Post-office London Directory" might be chosen. The work surely merits a name that would convey a definite idea of in formation so vast and varied, uniting as it does, in one volume, Directory, Court Guide, and Court Kalendar, and superseding the whole class of similar publications. Britannia, November 27, 1841 . The old proverb says, it is good to let well alone; but, we see no possible reason why well should be left to stand still, so long as better is clearly attainable ; and such appears to be the opinion of the enterprising proprietors of the " Post-office Lon don Directory." The present edition is superior in many re spects, to any of its predecessors. On its first appearance, it was a neat and correct .pocket-volume—nothing more; but it has gone on improving and augmenting from year to year, till, by the mere force of its manifest superiority, it has fairly beaten every competitor out of the field, and become, from the variety, copiousness, and accuracy of its information, an indispensable requisite to every count ing-house and shop in the metropolis and its suburbs. It would be quite impossible, in a brief notice, to give anything like an adequate idea of the contents of a closely-printed royal octavo volume, running to up w ards of 1,500 pages. It c a n only be justly described as a series of Directories, each one complete in itself, and each of peculiar value to every per son engaged in business. For instance, is the residence of any particular person required, a reference to the " Commer cial" or " Court Directory" will at once give the desired in formation. If a complete list of all persons engaged in any one of the various professions or trades exercised in the me tropolis is sought, turn to the " Trades' Directory," and you have, ready to your hand, arranged in alphabetical order, and with the residence attached, a return of every ac countant, apothecary, artist, Sze., &c., within the limits of the bills of mortality. It is th e same w i t h every et h er depart ment of the work. 'We have never seen any volume containing so much matter, so well divided, and clearly arranged. The intimate connexion of the Proprietor with the Post-office en sured him the most accurate information; and his printers' extensive printing-office and steam-presses enabled him to issue his sheets with surprising rapidity ; so that every change is made up almost to the day of publication. The whole book is worthy of the mighty city it anatomises; the most correct, as well as the most useful, record of its industry, its vastness, and its intelligence; and, if we keep in mind the enterprise neces. sary for the conception of such a work, the immense care re quired in its preparation, the enormous capital required to pro duce it, and, considering its bulk and variety, the surprisingly lox price at which it is issued, we must pronounce it, notwith standing the typographical wonders daily issued from the press, the most surprising volume to which the first city in the world has yet given birth. John Bull, November 27, 1841. Again we have to bestow our praise on the completeness and cheapness of the multifarious information comprised in the t' Post-office London Directory." which comprehends within one moderately sized volume, of clear and easy reference, a Commercial, Trades', Law, Court, and Parliamentary Direc tory. It is at once the fullest volume of the kind, the most ex act, has the most recent intelligence—the information it em bodies having been collected within the last seventy days from official. sources, and through agents possessing the requisite lo cal knowledge, and is altogether the completest guide-book to the metropolis that has hitherto appeared. Spectator, Dec. 4, 1841. This extensive work still continues to grow. Besides a revi sion and extension of the other branches, the Official Directory has now been increased so as to form a division of itself. This part, like the other eet, is subdi v id e d ; one part containing a list of Government and other p u bli c o ffi ces, under which the names and employments of th e persons are arranged; the other prese nts an al p hab etical list persons holding offices under the Cr own, in the East Indi a H ouse , Bank of England, &c. section A s n o d f the su bj c hs ua rnuster-roll !—an arm y, nay, a population, of place-holders! Nonconformist, December 8, 1 841. Another edition of this colossal work has just issued from the steam presses of Messrs. Kelly and Co., 19 and 20, Bos well-court, Temple Bar. The greatest credit is due to all parties connected with the compilation of this book, for the assiduity which must have been exercised, as well as the talent displayed in the exoeution of every branch of it. This has been' achieved by dint of great labour. As a whole, we look upon the Post- office Directory as the most complete work of the kind ever published. National Advertiser, Dec. 1 8, 1841. This work is in 1,527 imperial octavo pages, and the study of the compilers appears to have been to render each page a speci men of systematic arrangement, and of how much information it is possible to convey in a given space. We do not believe that any work of the kind exists so nearly approaching perfection. The resources of the Post-office, and mighty they are proved to be, are here wrought out into every useful variety of cembina tioa, and to each division of the book has been imparted a labo rious finish, that only those accustomed to literary labour can entirely appreciate.

The unavoidable consequeuce of this is, that we meet a very considerable proportion of indifferent, usele.e, and even bad books. With the force of this prejudice on our minds, we with no little reluctance were induced to peruse Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood ;" nor did it re quire much perusal fully to satisfy us that the book Was not one of the common stamp. The scientific views taken by the authors of the source and origin of many of the most distressing effects of certain depraved habits, fully establish their claim to the character of experienced and judicious surgeons. To quote passages from the work in proof of our assertion would be departing from the established rules of the daily press. The result, however, of our careful perusal of the work, has been to impress us with a thorough confidence in the talent and skill of the authors, and to satisfy us that those entrusted with the care of youth are not a little indebted to them for fur nishing them with a means of preventing some of the most frightful maladies to which flesh is heir.—Old England. Messrs. Curtis's work, entitled " Manhood," is one of the few books now coming before the public on such a subject which can lay claim to the character of being strictly professional. at the same time that it is fully intelligible to all who read it. The moral and medical precepts given in it, render it invalu able—Magnet. TManhood, tdh y C d u e r v t i e c o s p h i n o g o k a s e e n r t i i e t s l eodf maladies," e never-failing consequence of the vicious h a bit o f w hi ch it treats. The clear connexion pointed out b e t ween the assigned has ast oni of s h! l d es us r s cause • and the effects is perceptible to every capacity. , We strongly recommend the work.—Age. The multitude of books daily coming from the press, same, nay most of them of a very questionable tendency, made us ex• tremely reluctant to take up another. 'Having, however, been induced by the character given of this work by an intelligent friend, we ventured to open its pages, and now feel no hesita • tion in saying that we arise from its perusal instructed !and led. The clear exposition of the source of many of those disc , .qes which proves so fatal to youth, and which are set dow, - . by the every-day observer as the result of common su-h as exposure to cold, sudden vicissitudes of ter:.:pe rature, hereditary taint, ize., is truly convincing and extre mely satisfactory. We say " satisfactory," inasmuch as Messrs. ';urtis have shown that many diseases, such as Pulmonary Consumption, Epilepsy, Sze., hitherto the opprobria of medi c.ne. may, when taken in proper time, and submitted to judi cious treatment, be brought to as favourable a termination as any other class of ffections. We do not think we go too far in saying that society is deeply indebted.to the authors for producing so useful, so much wanted, so valuable, and so truly moral a book.—Conservative Journal. We recommend the work entitled" Manhood," &c., to the careful perusal of persons of all classes. The moral as wel as physical advantages sure to result from such perusal, will be most readily recognised and felt by those who stand most in need of them.--Statesman. Messrs.

On Saturday evening last, a preliminary meeting was held at the offices of Mr. W. Lindley, Adelphi-terrace, with a view to: the formation of an association to watch, on the part of the public, the improvements now in pro gres), .and to urge upon Gov ern Me n t th e i m p or t ance o f prepa Ong some general and comprehensive plan em bracing the interests of the whole metropolis. The meeting was numerously and respectably at tended. Several distinguished artists, merchants from the City, and-men of scientific and literary reputation were present. C. W. I)ILaE, Esq., was called to the Chair. The CHAIRMAN briefly explained the object Of the meeting. They were met ; not to promote isolated pro jects of improvement, or to forward the personal and private interests of surveyors, or any persons connected by property with new lines of streets ; but to take up a question of considerable practical importance on broad public grounds. Hitherto the subject had not been so treated. It had been left almost entirely in the hands of individuals anxious to promote the interests of particular neighbourhoods, but the interests of the metropolis as a whole had not been considered, and hence the progress made for some years past had been far from satisfactory. It was high time the subject was discussed on its general merits, not exclusively in reference to merely local im provements, and this was the object for which they had then assembled. Mr. SMITH cordially approved of the object of the meeting. It was one which harmonised with that of another Society with which he was connected—the So ciety for throwing open Public Monuments, which, at a very inconsiderable expenditure, not exceeding, he be lieved, from first to last, a hundred pounds, had effected a great amount of good. Hampton Court, the Tower, and Westminster Abbey, were gratifying instances of what might be effected for the public by the rightly-di rected efforts of a few individuals. In the present in stance he thought it would not be expedient, indeed, it was not contemplated, that the proposed Society should undertake, themselves, the .preparation of any general Om of metropolitan improvement—it should confine itself to the object of urging Government to employ fit and qualified persons for the task. , Mr. C. FOWLER said, that while employed in the erection of Hungerford Market, and in superintending various architectural works in the metropolis, he had often found reason to lament the want of unity of pur pose that had prevailed in whatever was undertaken in the name of the public Hence it happened, that when large sums were to be expended on public buildings, no suitable sites were obtained for them, although they , might easily be provided in any general plan of im provement founded upon an accurate survey. Scarcely-, however, any one of the plans now brought forward appeared to have any relation or connection with any other, and hence the whole were, to a great extent, failures. A . Committee of the House of Commons, to whom these sub jeets are referred, was body open to various objectionable influences. Some of their resolutions were certainly serious mistakes, and not the result of enlarged views. What could be more lamentable than the decision of the last Committee not to pull down the Rookery in St. Giles's, in carrying out the new line from Oxford-street, and this merely to save a sum of but B,OOOL or 10,0001. The resolution of the Committee to make a crooked line from Bow-street, instead of a broad, straight thoroughfare, was also greatly to be deplored. In both cases the new property to be created would be depre ciated, perhaps to the extent of at least one-third, by the course about to be pursued. Mr. W. E. HecKsoN thought that the attention of ' Government, should be earnesty directed to the sanitory state of the poorer districts of the metropolis, as perhaps the. most important part of the subject. It was a startling fact stated in the returns of the Register-General, that while the mean annual mortality of the population for the whole of England was 1 in 45, the mortality of the Whitechapel district, owing to its over-crowded state and defective drainage was 1 in 28. This was an alarming evil, and not one from which the inhabitants of the western part of the metropolis were exempt, for whenever the wind blew from the East, whatever pestiferous gasses were generated in the neighbourhood of Spitalfields or Rat cline were driven to our most fashionable squares. It had been proposed to improve the health of the metro polis by passing Drainage Bills, but drainage was only one part of a general question, and could not be properly effected as an isolated measure. Before there could be new main sewers, -there must be new main streets, letting in the light and air where the sun now never penetrated. The work afterwards of making lateral sewers would then be attended with no difficulty. The necessity for new thoroughfares to fa cilitate the traffic of the metropolis in extensive districts, consisting of intricate labyrinths of lanes and blind alleys, was a point upon which he need not dwell. The prac tical question was, how the object could be effected. Since the death of George the Fourth very little, compa ratively speaking, had been undertaken upon an enlarged scale. The improvements in the Strand, Regent-street, and in the Regent's-park were well conceived in their general outline, however defective in detail, and we owe them to the personal influence of that monarch. The loss of Nash could easily have been supplied, but Government had remained passive. What had been. done had been effected only through the exertions of individual surveyors, and that not always in the most judicious manner. The experience of the last Session showed that nothing further could be expected from a Committee of the House of Commons, and the public must rouse itself in the matter if its intent were not to be neglected. The public, however, could not be got to move in favour of any isolated local schemes ; they were considered rather private than public ques tions, but it would be otherwise if a comprehensive plan were proposed, attractive in its general features, and em bracing the interests of all the metropolitan boroughs. For this reason he believed it would be found more easy to raise funds for a comparatively costly plan of general improvement than a tenth part of the same sum for any one of the local projects which had been set on foot. The one would have public support, the other can only have the support of a section. The public also looked with suspicion (though often unjustly) upon local projects as originating in jobbing motives. Hence, a general apathy existed on the subject Of all the plans which had been approved by the House, and their exe cution had been found very up-hill work. In a Coin ' inittee of the House there had always been a divided in terest. A small sum of money had been raised by a tax on coals, and Metropolitan Members had scrambled for it, each wanting it and much more for his constituents. From similar motives rival surveyors come forward to depreciate each other's plans that their own might have the preference. Government should be urged to put an 'end to this indignified course. All should unite in some general plan for consulting the interests of all. Government ought to look forward perhaps ten years, and employ fit and competent persons to report upon the improvements most needed, and which might be carried into effect within that period. Not the Woods and Forests, already overworked, nor Members of the House of Commons, but engineers and architects of high and established reputation, should be selected for the task. One Act of Parliament should then be passed for the whole. If the plan were popular, as he had no doubt it would be ; and if the expenditure were somewhat equally divided between different districts, a landlords' tax of 3d. or 6d. in the pound might perhaps easily be raised ; 3d. in the pound on the rental of London would alone pro duce nearly 100,0001. per annum. It could not be thought of now ; for why should Lambeth pay for the local improvement of Westminster ? A popular general plan would also facilitate the raising the money by other modes, if either Parliamentary grants or indirect im posts were deemed preferable to direct taxation. All tUfficulties would be surmounted, as in the case of Mr. Mirry's new Houses of Parliament, if the plan to be neilized were one which the public could regard as an ob i lect of national pride. It should also be borne ,in mind that the money expended could not in this case be sunk - or lost. The rental of London would be increased in a proportion greater than that of the outlay. Mr. DILLoN, as one of the public deeply interested in whatever steps might be taken for improving the communications of London, and removing the existing obstructions to its commercial intercourse, wished to express his hearty concurrence in the objects of the meeting. As an instance of the injudicious character of some of the improvements now in progress, he might allude to the widening of Cateaton-street at an enormous expense, without rendering it either a handsome street, or one which it would be possible to continue further to the east or west, so as to relieve the crowded thoroughfares of Newgate-street, Holborn, and other streets in the same line. He was sorry to observe the narrow view sometimes taken by the City autho rities, which led them to suppose that the inte rests of the City were entirely unconnected with or opposed to the interests of the surrounding districts. It was this unhappy spirit which induced them to con tinue to levy an octroi duty upon non-freemen's carts, as if the object were to discourage, as much as possible, a ll traffic with their neighbours. The City, however, occa sionally displayed a liberality which, lie trusted, would in this case be called into exercise, and that they would take a sound view of what the public interest really required. • THE LATE HURRICANE-LOSS OF LIFE. 'Within the last three or four days accounts of the most de plorable description have been received by the authorities at Lloyd's, respecting the loss of an immense number of vessels during the late frightful : hurricane on the evening of Wednes day last, which has not been equalled for many years past. The sacrifice of human life has been very great, and it is feared, from the immense quantity of wreck that has since been washed on the coast, that many vessels foundered during the violence of the storm. It has been ascertained that upwards of 23 ves sels were wrecked during the night of the 26th ult., as will be proved by the following particulars :—Shortly after the com mencement of the storm a large smack, called the Alicia, be longing to Cork, drove amongst the rocks off St. Bride's Bay, 'near Milford, and almost immediately bedaine a wreck. The first person' who left' the vessel was a seaman named James Trance, .but he_had scarcely reached the roads before a tre mendous sea overwhelmed the vessel, and she was seen no mere. The remainder of the crew happily succeeded in saving themselves except the mate, who failed in his attempt to reach the shore, and met with 'a watery grave: . The vessel was laden with ballast, and Was not insured. She was on her voyage from Yeughall to Newport, in Monmouthshire. Amidst the fury of the storm, and at about half-past ten o'clock at night, the brig Vermillion, laden with a general cargo. and belonging to South Shields, which place she only left the night before, ran on to the rocks beneath Pitch Point, at Flamborough Head. The crew fortunately saved them , selves through the a , aistance of the Coast Guard, but the ves sel became a total wreck. About the same time another ves sel, called the Berton, a brig, beloneing to Su n d er l a nd, was driven on t o th e Corton Sands, off Great Yarmouth, and subsequently sunk in deep water a complete wreck. Her crew, consisting of seven persons, had barely time to jump into the long boat before the vessel sunk, and were not picked up till late the following morning. 'rhe Braganza steadier, 'Captain Lewis, which arrived at Falmouth, on Saturday last, with the mails from Gibraltar, during the hurricane picked up the crew of the brig Chance, of Stockton, from Liverpool, which was lost at the commencement of the storm, and about the same hour the pilots and Coast Guard, stationed on the coast at Falmouth, saw a sloop founder within three miles of the shore, and all on board pe rished. From- accounts received from Limerick, dated the 26th of January, it appears that the damage done by the hurricane to the shipping lying in the har bour exceeds 10,0001., and similar injuries are reported to have occurred to the shipping in the harbour at Water ford. The other Vessels wrecked during the storm are as follows : The Druid, belonging to Workington, lost at the mouth of she riv er Fl eet , near Kirkenbright.The ship Stag, belonging to Liverpool, from Ileaumaris, - wrecked on the rocks tear Leasowe Castle. The brig Peruvian, Captain Curren, on her passage to• London from South Shields, lost on the sunken rocks near the lighthouse at Flamborough Head ; crew saved by the ship's boats. The schooner Craig's Eliza, Captain Paterson, totally wrecked on the racks underneath Tynemouthlighthouse ; crew saved by Captain Manby's lite apparatus. The Honour, of St. Ives, wrecked on the coast off Wexford, and also the schooner Sarah, belonging to Wex ford ; all of the crew, except one, peti,hed. The ship Ceres, Captain Pecker, having on board 700 tons of sugar, and a cargo valued at 20,000/, lost on the 25th, on her voyage home wards ; one' sailor was killed by the fall of the mast, and an other drowned. The Aretk j usa, from Dublin, wrecked at St. John's Pier; Workingtonl,liceew saved. The Margaret, be longing to Liverpool, ft om';;Clinway, laden with a valuable Zarga;'losttiff Hoy's Lake, at Mostyn. The French brig Cor riere di Malta, belonging to Venice, laden with sugar, lost on the coast near Calais. The smack Nymph, belonging to the pilots of Llanelly, lose off that harbour. The Centurion, Cap tain Johns, from Ainlwch, was lost on the coast of Grenfield, at hlostyn, and the master and three men met with a watery grave, Several other wrecks occurred on the coast during , the violence of the gate, but their names are not correctly , made known. CASE OF THE CREOLE. - EXTRACT OF A LETTER FROM JUDGE JAY TO JOSEI,4 STURGE, DATED NEW YORX", JAN. 6,1842...... t. You will hare heard before you receive this of thelnatf of the Creole, one of our coasting slavers. She. 'Y.', for New Orleans the last of October, with a cargo, l.' • 'ves ; while on the voyag e th e s l aves , or a portionri • .em ose on the crew, and, after a slight struggle, bee) tors of the vessel. There were tWelVe white us grid wily one was killed. The. wounded, including tho Capttin, were humanely treated by the negroes, who dressed their wounds. The vessel was carried into Nassau, where all the slaves were liberated, except nineteen concerned in the " mutiny," .who were con fined by the authorities to await the orders of the home Go vernment Our slaveholders are in great wrath, and mean, if possible, to terrify your Government into a surrender of the nineteen murderers, that they may be suspended from southern gibbets in terrarent. They will us doubt be demanded in peremptory terms by our Minister in London. In my opinion this sur render would be most disgraceful to Great Britain, most cruel, wicked, and pu , illanimous. Admitting them to be murderers, by what law is your Government auzborife.i to surrender to the United States nineteen human beings to be put to death? The law of nations does not require it. We made a treaty with you in 1794, by which each party agreed to surrender murderers, but that treaty expired, and since then we have refused to surrey.- der murderers at the request of your Government, as, for in-- stance, in the Case of the two Barnebees, who fled to this country from Ireland; and in the case of one Holmes, who committed a very atrocious murder in Canada. Also, in the case of the Amistad negroes we refused to surrender the al leged murderers to the Spanish Minister. If you cannot surrender them as murderers, can you as fugi tive slaves? If you surrender these men, on what. plea, can you afford protection to the 12,000 fugitives i n C ana d a ? Have wee right to claim favours we do not reciprocate? There is no law authorising the surrender of a foreign fugitive, and so far have we been hitherto from claiming the surrender by you of fugitives as a right, that we once offered to agree to surren der all fugitives from your West India islands, provided and on condition that you would bind yourselves by treaty to sur render such slaves.as might flee to Canada. I mention these facts that you'may see that the claim we shall prefer for the surrender of the Creole negroes is as contrary to international law as it is to the law of Almighty God. There is not one of the slaveholders who ate now thirsting for the blood of these negroes, who would in similar circumstances have scrupled to take human life. Do let your Government and people un derstand the true state of the ease. Ido hope your Ministry will listen to the dietatt.s of justice, humanity, and national honour. NATIONAL ANTI-COHN-LAW BAZAAR. MANCHESTER, MONDAY.—The Theatre Royal had been elegantly and appropriately fitted up for the occa sion, and the ladies of Manchester and th e neighbour hood, who had given in their names to assist, were all at their posts at an early hour, occupying their respective stalls for the display of all kinds of wares. At twelve o'clock precisely the Bazaar was opened ; to the public, and at this moment the theatre presented a.sort of fairy scene, or oriental mercantile assemblage, so brilliant and dazzling -' did everything appear. The visitors and pur chasers soon crowded in. The Countess l)ucie, the La dies Bouveriq (daughter. 4 of the Earl of Rawl.), were expected to preside at stalls, but had not arrived at a late hour of the day. The lady of Thomas M. Gibson, Esq. (one of the Members for the borough) presided at a leading stall, which was besieged by purchasers, whO bought liberally. It is impossible to convey au idea of the enthusiasm which prevailed, or to form an adequate conception of the powerfully moral effect which this project will exercise upon the vast population, ;of all classes, in . this district. The stalls were most abun dantly covered with wares, of all forms and kinds ; and ingenuity, - industry, and taste, have severally been called largely into requisition, to supply the infinite variety of articles which ornamented the stalls. In the course of the day heaps of boxes, from various parts of the king dom, filled with articles for sale, were received and contributions from hundreds of friends, received several days ago, lie still in store for sale on a future day. N O one could pass along the avenues of the Bazaar without being struck with the powerful combination that had been at work ; nor could any one doubt that a cause in which so much energy, perseverance, and resolution had been employed, would fail to triumph. The surrounding towns of Rochdale, Bolton, Wigan, Ashton, Stockport, and other places, have furnished beautiful stalls, and the Corn-law Repealers in each of these places have pledged themselves to purchase the whole of the wares of their native stalls. Although the day has been unfavourable as to.wea ther, yet the Bazaar has attracted great numbers to view it, and articles to a large amount have been pur chased. The total proceeds of the day, it is said, will not be far short 0f1,500/. ;.which, with donations already received, will amount to about 2,5001. RESIGNATION OF MR. BAIN BRIDGE.- (I-Rom A CORRESPONDENT.) TAUNTON, TUESDAY.-At an early hour this morn ing the inhabitants of this town were aroused from their slumbers by a merry peal of the bells of St. Mary Magdalen, and the enlivening strains of a band of music ; and on going into the streets were surprised to find on all sides large placards announcing the resigna tion of E. T. Bainbridge, Esq., as Parliamentary Re presentative of this borough, and the expected arrival at ten o'clock of Sir TI - onnas Edward Colebrooke, as a Li beral candidate fox:the vacant seat. At ten o'clock a large number of the electors, headed by a band of muSic; and carrying numerous banners, pro. ceeded on the Bridgewater-road, and shortly returned with Sir T. E. Colebrooke, who, having arrived at the New London Inn, briefly addressed the people assembled in the streets, and immediately proceeded on his canvas. • After the day's cturiass terminated he again addressed the electors from the windows of the New London Inn, and expressed himself perfectly assured of success. The Duke of Buceleuch has been appointed to " the office of Lord Privy Seal in the place of the Duke of Buckingham. TO HORTICULTURISTS, THE A R G U S; Or, BROAD-SHEET OF THE EMPIRE.
