HER MAJESTY'S NEW STATIONERY OFFICE.—The edifice about to be substituted for the small and incon venient office which is at present devoted to supplying the stationery for her Majesty's offices is now nearly completed, and will in a few weeks be appropriated to the entire business which is now transacted in Great George-street. The new office is a plain but remarkably neat building, erected in Princes-street, Storey's-gate,at the rear of tie Westminster hos pital, upon ie site of the old Royal Westminster Mews, by Messrs. Piper and Son, of Bishopsytte. It forms three sides of a quadrangle, and thus encloses a large court-yard ; the principal front, which is about 90 feet in length, and of proportionate elevation, is built with a very light-coloured brick, relieved with stone dreSsings, and the general interior arrangements and fittings are admirably suited to the required purposes. To show the absolute necessity, in the present pressure of Go vernment business, for the erection of a new office, se veral tons of paper have already been stored in a part of the new building.

They are of larger and all sizes, with increasing powers accordingly ; while their vary ing from 4 to 6 inch I r enab'e us to discover more than the above, and the Georgian, with his 6 satellites, &c.—The Royal Exhibition, 1851.—Valuable, newly-invented, very small, powerful waistcoat-pocket glass,the size of a walnut, by which a person can be seen and known 13 miles distant ; they answer every purpose on the race-course, and at the opera houses, country scenery, and ships are clearly seen at 8 to 10 miles. They aro invaluable for shooting, deer-stalking, yachting, to sportsmen, gentlemen, gamekeepers, and tourists. Opera, race-course, camp, and perspective glasses, with woßderitil power.—Newly-constructed Spectacle Lenses of the great est transparent power. The valuable ad vs:, tage derive 't from this invention is, that vision becoming iinpair,„a is preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons arc enabled to employ their sight at the most min: ao ' u p a tion—can see with those lenses of a mu c h l oss magnify. ing power—and they do not require the frequent changes to the dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. De-,;; ness—New Discovery.—The Organic Vibrator, an extraordi nary powerful, small, newly-invented instrument for deafness, entirely different from all others, to surpass anything of the kind that has been, or probably ever can be, produced. Being of the same colour as the skin, is not perceptible ; it enables deaf persons to hear distinctly at church and at public assemblies ; the unpleasant sensation of singing noises in the ears is entirely removed ; and it affords all the assist snce that possibly could bo, desired. 39, Albemarle-street, Piccadilly.

GILES: At the Oxford Circuit Court, yesterday, the greatest exc tement was manifested to hear the trial of the Rev. John Allen Giles, D.C.L., for marrying, at uncanonical hours, and making a false entry in the register. The court was densely crowded. The defendant was placed in the dock, and appeared calm and collected. Mr. Keating, 0.b., and Ur. Huddlestane were coun sel for the prosecution ; Mr. Clarkson, Mr. Cripps, and Mr: Scotland were for the defendant. The indictment charged Dr. Giles first, with having represented that a Robert Pratt and Jane Green were married on the 3d of October, whereas they were married on the sth of October, 1854 ; secondly, that he had said they had been married by license, whereas they were ►.ot ;'and, th'rdly, that he had said they were married in the pretence of one Charlotte Tate, whereas they were not. • It appeared that a Jane Green was in the service of Dr: Giles--a man of great literary attainments, and wlio f spent much of his time in study—anti who was,. one t of the stipendiary curates of the parish church of Eani i p o t o h n e . A young man named Robert Pratt, a shoemaker and on village, was paying his addresses to Jane Green,ixo'clock in Thursday, the sth of October last year, the morning, they were married attthethpaeatriosshhucrehhu,rchhobj.

MANCHESTER, March 6.—The market both in yarn and cloth has shown an improvement, and but for the considerable advance in the raw material at Liverpool, which is fully id. per lb., the result of the better feeling manifested in all circles would proLably have been much more apparent. The business has not been large, and what there has been is not so much the result of more confidence in the future, perhaps, as of the policy which always drives buyers, who have been keeping back their orders in hopes of mere favourable opportunities, to throw them upon the market immediately there is a symptom of prices having turned their lowest limit for the time being. Spinners have not, in general, been able to keep pace in price with the ,cotton market ; the advance in general has not been more than id. per lb. in yarn, and even that has tended to check business. The change, however, is one for good, if only in checking the downward tendency. Buy ers were offering as much as id. and even id. per lb. reduction last week, and the advance of only id., therefore, shows a considerable chan g e in feeling. Pro bably, in 20's water-twist, and in 40in. shirtings the advantage is a little greater to the seller, but these are exceptional cases, because they are classes of goods ex traordinarily depressed and unsaleable. The advantage in'the cloth-market to day has been rather less than in the yarn ; there has been more inquiry, and buyers have given prices which they were not willing to pay last week, but in few cases has an advance been reported. Most people regard the slight improvement, such as it is, as only a transient gleam of sunshine. LEEDS, Maroh 6.—Th• cloth-markets to-day have been of much the same character as those of Saturday last. All parties operate cautiously, but the hopes of peace which have been excited by the death of Nicholas of Russia led to an anticipation that there will soon be an improvement in trade, and hence the markets have been a little more animated than on this day se'nnight.

The matter now began to be talked about very widely, and Dr. Giles made use of some conflicting stories.. He wrote to the Lord Bishop,. in October, three times. The first was on the 11th of October, in which he says that th which gir lask h e e d h co im nse t u o te m d. arr T y h h e er let a t n e d r Pratt ;roee e o d n e i d h_e 3d /si e ex ° morning I married them between the hours of eight and ten, in the presence of two invited witnesses (a third having failed to come), hind with open doors, through which entered two other persons unknown. When the ceremony was over, and the books, as they thought, properly signed, the young man left rather hastily with out my noticing that one of the entries was incomplete. I told the girl to come with him the next morning, or Thursday. Sho Caine with him about hall-last six, and I went with them to see the entry complete. A gossip of the village spree , ' the report that they went to be married. Hence the whole report." The next letter to his lordship was written on the 24th of October, after the inquiry before the magistrate had taken _place, in which he admitted that he .had misrepresented the facts in the firmer letter ; that he did ma:ry them on the Thursday mor,iing ; but solemnly dtclnred he did not know that eight o'clock wai the limit of time fcr I.eginning a marriage. He admitted. also in the Paine letter that there was no license, but earnestly in treated his lordship to pity his folly. The letter con tinued—" I had no fraudulent intention. I had no benefit whatever from the marriage, and foolishly thought, if I thought at all, that the parties were answer able for the license.' Every one who knows me will'say it was reckless neglect. In this light, my lord, I hope you will forgive or excuse the felonious crime, as I now for the first time know it to be. I crave your pardon, and that of any other person who may be concerned in the matter. My prospects are already ruined." The third letter Vca3 written on the 26th October. It ran thus :—" My Lord, —Though utterly unworthy ever to receive a letter from you again, and wholly ungrateful, as it would appear for the consideration which you have shown me, I venture again to write, so soon after the date of my last letter, because everything I can say is too little to express the agonies of my mind at what has occurred. The heaviest cause of distress is to me that I should have suffered myself, even by legal advice, to let the truth be mis-stated to your lordship. I have no ex cuse but that the dreadful prospect of felony, with 14 years' transportation, quite overwhelmed every sentiment of propriety and every feeling but that of intense horror. May I plead, my lord, that when I recovered from the first pang of madness I forbade every one to speak of misrepres en ti n o. the facts, and gave an account of the wholeaff affair i r to hi m who stated it before the magistrates. I again solemn ly declare that I never heard of the law which forbade marriages before 8 o'clock, and imposed such heavy penaltie:. for that, and also for marrying without a license. I add my solemn declaration that no gain or advantage to myself influenced me in this matter. The sole cause of my so acting was that reckless rash ness to which I have_ever been liable in doiug the first thing that suggests itself to• me. This - Was mfliniiielse then. It was notorious to all my family that thisyousg woman was going to be married to the young man: I was at the time overwhelmed with' . hard work from various causes. Mr. Adams being away I had additional sermons. I had six pupils preparing for Oxford and the army, with whom I was occupied six hours a day ; and thirdly, my dear child belonging to Christ Church School had been sent home in a fever, and with his life despaired of ; six nights lead I sat up with my wife, watching his sufferings. At the end of this time it was that something was said of our servant's marriage, and I, in a moment of rashness and folly, said, Shall I marry you to-morrow morning ?' The offer was eagerly caught at ; the hour of eight was named, but,.failing to come, they requested me to name as earlier hour for two days after. On this point, too, I assented, but this time not from thoughtlessness, but pure ignorance. They went away, and spoke of it openly within an hour. There was no idea of a clandestine marriage, but only to avoid a number of persons at the ceremony. * * * Enough, I am aware, remains, my lord, to overwhelm me utterly, unless you hold out a merciful hand to save me. Do I dare ask you? Soma one has hinted to me no ; because I had given your lordship trouble by my two books on theological subjects. But I will not be lieve that you harbour one thought against me on that account, and I ask ,your lordship to help me in as bitter a trial as ever befel a clergyman. In this last word.lies the origin of my misfortunes, During the 23 years that • I have been in orders I never practised my profession until the* last few years at Batnpton ; and even there I have been regarded as a mere help to others, leaving to them all parochial matters. The cause of this was the necessity of being ordained in orders to hold a fellow ship ; and so I am bitterly expiating the crime (too common) of making holy orders a qualification for worldly advantages. Not only have 'I been held to bail for the early hour in this case ; but in a second, which took place a year ago, when they say the clock struck eight immediately after the ceremony was con c:uded. It is my firm belief that this charge has been added merely to add to the weight of the former. lam held to bail in 500/. for that also. Thirdly, I am told that a third information awaits me about there being no license. This is grave, but I meant no fraud. I cannot account for my folly ; but I supposed it was their affair to answer that and not mine, for I had never read a license, having only married five by license all-my HE I entreat your lordship to withhold this third information : let me struggle, 'the best I can, with the two former, the penalty of which is so severe, without any addition to it. If you will extgnd to me this mercy, I shall have a chance, after a very long time, of recovering myself. But I do not even want this mercy for nothing. I will do any penance for my lolly, in any way you may appoint. I will discharge to the best of my abilities any talk you may assign. I will fulfil the duties, and give the full proceeds to the poor fur any length of time. And lastly, I will give up all my literary occupations, and endeavour to study the laws and duties of my profession, so as not to be a disgrace to it, but if p oss ibl e a serviceable mem ber of it. And lastly, I would make any compensation if I could to any parties aggrieved by the recent act, but I understand they and others are in bitter trouble at the result of proceedings which they took against me, and thereby that I have already been more than punished for any injury they may be supposed to have suffered." It was further proved that Dr. Giles had been the means of getting Mr. and Mrs. Pratt out of the way, having sailed to Australia, the doctor having paid their passage money. Numerous witnesses were examined, and amongst them the Lord Bishop of Oxford, who produced the above letters, and the-case was most clearly 'established. The defence set up was, that the defendant was over whelmed with his literary labours, and through an utter recklessness had made those fatal mistake's, but not with the intent of injuring or defrauding any one. Several clergymen gave the defendant a very good character. The jury retired for ten minutes, and then returned into court with a verdict of guilty; but recommended the prisoner to mercy. Dr. Giles asked permission to address tbi, court, which was readilYconceded. He said it appeared he bad offended against Church and State. He admitted that he wp.s an unworthy member of the former ; but in going into it he had only tarried out the wishes of his deceased fa. tiler. It was entirely opposed to his own inclination. He bad worked for years past very hard, at the rate of 12 hours a day, publishing the ancient records of this country. One hundred and twenty volumes were the result of his labours, He had never sought favour from any one. If any one asked of .bim It favour he hid al ways done it. That had beeq his misfortmie. He felt that, bad he been placed in any other position in life than the church, he could bave followed a successful career, and been a useful member of society. He was the eldest of 16 children. He had never had a penny from his friends since he was 18 years of age. He took his de gree in this university. He felt his head sometimes af fected by his great studies. He then stated to his lord ship that, in the present case, be had no motive to serve, and begged earnestly for his lordship to take a merciful consideration of his case, and not to send him to prison. If he - was sent to prison, he certainly should not out live it. Lord Campbell, in sentencing the defendlint,-asid that a - suspicionhad existed that he had been gui!ty of some immoral act, which hid made him so anxious t o get Jane Green married and out of the way. That suspi cion appeared to be entirely without foundation., His lordship remarked upon the melancholy spectacle of see ing a man of his standing in such a lamentable position. He hoped his future conduct would be characterised with that atonement which he now professed to feel; and that he would becomes useful member of society at'some future period. He was then sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment without hard labour. The defendant appeared to feel the sentence most acutely.
