THE MOST DURABLE OUT-DOOR PAINT EVER INVENTED. CARSON'S ORIGINAL ANTI-CORROSION. PAINT, specially patronised by the British and other Go vernments, the Hon. East India Company, the Principal Dock Com - Panics, and other public bodies, fcc., is particularly recommended to the Nobility, Gentry, Agriculturists, Manufacturers, West India Pro prietors, and others, it having been proved by the practical test of more than sixty years to surpass all other paints as an out-door pre servative. It is extensively used for the protection of wooden houses, farm and other out-buildings, farming implements, conservatories, park-paling, gates, iron railings, iron hurdles, copier, zinc, lead, brick, stone, old compo, and stucco fronts, and tiles to represent sating. The superiority of the Anti-Corrosion to every other paint for out door purposes may be easily inferred from the simple fact, that its use has been always most strenuously opposed by colour manufac turers, painters, oil and colourmen, and others interested in the sale of common paints. It is also very 'economical, any labourer being able to lay it on. Colours—White stone, light stone, drab or Portland stone. Bath stone, light and dark yellow stone, light and dark oak, light and dark lead, light and dark chocolate, bright and dark red, black, and brown, 348. per cwt. ; invisible green, 50s. bright green,s6 l 605. ; deep d green, 60s. ; and blue , 60s. per cwt. ;in casks 28 lbs., bs., an 112 lbs. each.

The Rates of Premium are calculated upon Carlisle mortality, and are as low as a due regard to complete security will justify. HALF PREMIUM SYSTEM. —By this plan only one-half of the premiums with Interest of the retained halves, is required to be p iid for the first five years—the retained halves, being payable at the convenience of the assured, or allowed to continue, to form a deductiot from the claim on the Policy ; and as the As surance may be relinquished at any time without payment Of the retained premiums, this scheme enables a party to assure for the first five years at little more than half the usual rate, and to discontinue a Policy at about one-half the usual sacrifice. WHOLE WORLD POLICIES are granted, whereby the security of a creditor, holder of a Policy, continues unimpaired, although the assured life should go beyond the prescribed limits. Sums are assured payable to the parties themselves on attaining a specified age. or at their death, whichever shall first occur. PARTNERSHIP POLICIES are granted, whereby ajoint assurance effected by partners, at the charge of the firm, secures the capital in vested. On the death of either, the survivor is benefited by retain ing the whole capital, and the representatives of the deceased obtain their share without having to wait until it can be recovered from outstanding debts. There is no extra charge for residence beyond 35 degrees of the equator. No Admission er Entrance Fees are required, nor is any charge made for the Policy beyond the amount of the Stamp. Claims are payable within three months after proof of the death of the assured life The usual Commission allowed to Solicitors, and also to persons, approved by the Board, wlio extend the business of Life Assurance in connexion with this Company.

HUXLEY'S PARISIAN SHIRTS.- There is but one reason to be assigned for the difficulty experienced by gentlemen in being fitted with Shirts. It is the im perfect rules hitherto applied to Shirt making. This has led many gentlemen to suppose the difficulty to arise from some peculiar for mation of the neck or chest. Such opinions are most erroneous. It is essential that a Shirt should set with ease and comfort, the front remaining smooth with every change of position. 11. and Co respectfully solicit inspection, and feel, confident of giving satisfac tion to every customer. . . .

Diffidence, or a ense of right determine the former, and miscalculate,/ hopes em .Ater the latter. The solitary ore may shield himself under the plea of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret un .oreprosing harry ; but the truth lies deeper. Physical incapacity, in& broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness sod social content. The dowry should net be the only marriage set tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form au item in the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or neglect wound more sorely than povei ty or misfortune.

Henry Parnell, Esq., the Chairman the Middlesex Magistrates, presided, and in prop osin g that the toast of the evening, alluded to the adva ntag es formation of by a dinner at the would result to the community ragged schools; stating that, they would tend in the reformation of juvenile offenders,crime. Only those a great degree to the diminution the subject could with e who were intimately acquainted the in juvenile credit the amount of criminality the Houses of popula tion Co rrection of the metropolis. Last year, in I enwe I there were as thebyyhatiiimainly in view at Westminster and Cler , upwards of 1,700 youths below the age of 17, and out of that number more tban 600 could neither read nor write. These youths, who were generally without the guidance of parent or friend, were cast at an early age upon the streets to get a livlihood, and they were too un tameable, and of a too roving disposition, presenting as they did some of the finest specimens of the daring of the British character, to go into the workhouse or any place where they would be deprived of their liberty, or put under strict control. He remembered addressing an acute and intelligent youth who was about to leave the House of Correction after six months imprisonment, and saying to him "Now, you won't do the like again, will you?" The Loy, with an arch Wok which he would ' r never forget, repli ed , " Oh, si , you don't kn ow w h at i t is to dodge a policeman." " 'What do you mean?" he inquired." Why, we go out in the morning and if we see a gentleman we twig him down the next street, and perhaps we meet a policeman, who says, You young rogues, what are you about?" We still follow the gen tleman, and the policeman keeps his eye upon us, until after some time there is a noise; the policeman turns his head, and we are out with the handkerchief and off; and you can't tell the delight there is in dodging a policeman." He only introduced that anecdote to show that some of those neglected and forlorn children had bright intellects which would adorn any station if they had been placed under proper treatment, and received proper instruction. Mr. Sergeant ADAMS subsequently addressed the meeting in an able and eloquent speech upon the subject of juvenile delinquency, in the course of which be stated that the Larceny Act, which had been lately passed, and by which magistrates had the power of making sum mary convictions, had entirely failed in its object, and that the number of juvenile offenders had increased since it came into operation. The subscriptions amounted to more than 3001. The S.

With Tabl"s showing Interest at h per cent. reduced to 4%, 4,3%, 3,2%, and 2 per cent, ; Tables of Commission or Brokerage, &c. By JAMES GORDON, Accountant. 'P.* By these Tables, the interest of any sum not exccedinz 1001. and for any number of days not exceeding 365, can be obtained by one inspection. For example :—" Required the interest of 841, for 251 days ?" On turning to page 251, opposite to the sum 841. princi pal, is the answer 21. 17s. 9d. interest. And, to find the interest of any su% not exceeding .1651. for any number of days not exceeding 100, it is only necessary to reverse the time for the sum, thus : " Required the interest of 3501. for 93 days ?" By turning to page 350, opposite to the sum 931. principal, is the answer 41. 9s. 2d. inte rest. In selecting the Type, regard has been paid to clearness and distinctness ; and the introduction of E:yptian figures at the tens, will, it is hoped, give increased facility to the eye in running over the columns. _ _ _ _ London: William Tegg and Co., Pancras-lane, Cheapside, and Griffin and CO., Glasgow ~.-• -.-. 111 1 T 4,. , 1 , • • ; -::.. 1/' ..,..,.. . . , •,,. 1 i \ \ ~,t- ' .7 - n ' _.',. • - sei:l 4 4— , .7-, t YORK, Apiu. 21.

TIIE LOTTERY OF MARRIAGE.—That marriage is a lottery has long been a proverb, and its universal ac ceptation appears to have induced the most talented of our novel writers, Mrs. Trollope, to exhibit in one of her graphic and entertaining stories the various chances which are open to all who seek this ,uncertain source of speculation. In this new work, we understand, she brings forward the wealthy marriage, the pious marriage, the marriage for love, the marriage for ambition, marriages that are the great prizes of the matrimonial scheme, and marriages that are perfect blanks. In the hands of a novelist so familiar with the different phases of society such a subject will no doubt furnish one of the most en tertaining novels that have appeared for a long while. — Evening Paper.

INCREASING FORGERIES ON THE BANK OF ENGLAND. TO THE EDITOR OF 7'HE SUN. SIR,—" An old story!" I think I hear you impa tiently cry, and }et it is a paragraph in this evening's Sun that suggests this communication; and let me ask ou, shilst I appeal to your judgment and feelings vs an influential journalist and guardian of the public in terests, whether, from the frequent occurrence lately of forgeries of Bank of England paper, this serious sub does not come le:ore us again with fresh and pressing interest? The Liverpool Albion tells us (following upon the recent circulation of forged notes of the Bank of Eng land in London, Bristol, and other places), that " two hotel keepers and three publicans" in Liverpool have just been similarly fleeced—one of these unlucky trades men having given 9!. 19s. and a glass of brandy and water in exchange for one of these forgeries. Is it enough, I beg to a-k, Sir, that a paper circulation should be adequately protected only to the eyes of bankers, their clerks, and those of observant and experienced moneyed men? The fact that the Bank, after the numerous suggestions which have been made for the better prevention of forgery, since the Parliamentary Commission instituted nearly thirty years ago, has not even yet availed itself of a single suggested idea for the protection of the public, by ren dering their notes something, at least, more difficult of imitation, is the more puzzling and provoking, because if it be granted that, to attain inimitability, be like the search for the "philosopher's stone," still to render the opt ration of the forgt ry of bank-notes all but practicably impossible, is, I understand, beyond doubt, very easy— namely, by merely rendering it necessary for several individuals to associate to effect a fraud of this descrip tion, instead of issuing a note which engravers tell us any one man of tolerable ability can imitate, water-mark and all! It is constantly being proved that the boasted paper of the Bank, however beautiful, is easily to be imitated, somehow; by artificial means, well enough to pass over the counter of the tradesmen (mentioned in The Sun) of the Poultry, King William-street, and the Commercial road (who are now sorely exhibiting the forged specimens in their windows), and the hotel keepers and tradesmen of Bristol and Liverpool. That point should now at least beLallowed to be a settled fact, as these victims can vouch to their cost. The triple paper, proposed and patented by the late Sir W. Congreve, could not possibly have been imitated ,by any artificial process; that also is a fact which I believe has never been denied, and papermakers are very unlikely people to associate with forgers. Why, then, is not this patent triple-paper of SirW. Congreve's invention adopted, or something adopted to compel these prayers upon the public to go to the manufacturer for their paper, or rather, as the fact would prove, to go without it and put a stop to forgery. Is it because the Bank cannot afford to incur a little extra expense? Then as to the writing of the Bank of England notes as a security, it seems surprising, but no less strange than true, that the public in general are exceedingly bad judges of good writing engraving, even among the middle and higher classes. Exhibit a piece of superior and nicely executed writing to a jury of any dozen persons, and I grant it will apparently be appreciated. They will all declare to a man, probably, that it is capitally and beau tifully executed; but the deuce of it is, as it applies to security for banknotes, that show these same twelve ob servers another piece of very far inferior engraving, and half of them, probably, will admire that also, and a third of them, perhaps, pass a very bungling performance in deed as good work; hence, no doubt, the multiplication of the advertising cheap engraving shops, which exist from the public want of discernment. Thus, with an easily imitable piece of writing and vignette, and an easily imitable water-mark, the trading public are very neatly plundered, and will continue to be so, by the operations of the 'cute gentlemen or gentleman, who, probably, laughing in his sleeve, keeps himself ensconced in his secret garret, combining in his one rascally carcase, the efficiency of a trinity of operators—the engraver, printer and papermaker. I positively declare to having heard country bankers admit, that, although offering adequate security to them selves, they really do not think the Bank of England note sufficiently protected for the public circulation, and I expect this is a very general opinion among hankers. Then why not alter it? Country bankers, with few exceptions, afford it; cannot the Bank of England do so? I am respectfully, Sir, yours, A COMMERCIAL TRAVELLER. London, April 17th, 1849. IRELAND. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. my letter signed "A Grand Juror," about a fortnight ago, I gave you some particulars of the de plorable state of this city. Even since then things have become worse and worse. Trade we have none, save that in foreign breadstuff's. The condition of our shopkeepers is truly pitiable. Bowed down by heavy rates, they are doing no business whatever. One man, who for many years has supported his family respectably, informed me this day that for the last fortnight the receipts of his shop were one shilling I With matters thus, in the first commercial city in Ireland, you may well imagine the state of the rural districts. . . In the Bantry Union, of which the population is now reduced from 50,764 to about 38,000, the number of in mates in the workhouse last week was 2,331, and the number receiving out-door relief 9,850, being a total of 12,181, or nearly one-third of the entire population. This union is bankrupt, depending on the weekly re mittance of the Commissioners for its maintenance, and owing 7,0001. to the traders and shopkeepers of the town of Bantry, many of whom will become paupers if this debt remain much longer unpaid. In the Skibbereen Union, of which the population, 104,508 in 1841, is now reduced to less than 80,000, the numbers in the workhouse are 3,784, on out-door relief lists 15,748, being a total of 19,537, or about one-fourth of the entire population. This union too is bankrupt, owing a eebt of over 6,0001., and without one penny in the treasurer's hands. One of the guardians informed my correspondent this week that they are afraid to strike a rate lest the farmers now remaining should emi grate! Your English readers are probably not aware of the nature of our out-door relief; simply one pound of raw Indian meal per day to each adult, and half a pound to children! Many of the unfortunate creatures have no fuel to prepare it, and eat it raw. Thus, amongst the several cases of death by starvation, in the Cork Examiner of last evening, we find it stated in the course of the inquest on Mary Nolan, found dead at the gate of the Tralee workhouse, on Saturday morning, that "on 9. post mortem examination, by Dr. Alton, there was nothing but a few grains of raw Indian meal found i❑ her stomach!" The weekly cost of out-door relief to 15,748 human beings in the Skibbereen Union is only 3241. 18s. 11d. or sd. each; And yet this paltry sum, insufficient for more than one day's relief, is far more than the union can afford. A correspondent of the Cork Eraminer writes thus from Skibbereen, April 16:— No rate struck—credit of the board nearly gone— unwillingness on the part of contractors to give further supplies. Some thousands have been lately struck off the out-door relief lists, by an order or re solution of the board of guardians, limiting the classes to be relieved out of the house. Hundreds of the poor creatures thus struck off, though recommended by their respective relieving officers for admisssion into the poor house, and though having repeatedly applied for admission, have been excluded in consequence .of the over-crowded state of the house. Hundreds of all ages and of all sexes, who have travelled, some 10, some 20, some 30, some 40, and some 50 miles, seeking admission into the workhouse in vain, have been obliged to sleep in the fields, in the ditches, and in the streets of Skibbereen 1" The population of the whole country is fearfully thinned. 'Thus, in iiilmoe (Skibbereen Union) the number of inhabitants-8,000, in 1841—is now under 1,500. The tide of emigration flows fast. A gentleman coming into town from Bandon, one day last week, passed no less than 40 cars, full of emigrants, and their effects, on the road. At one particular poiet he over took a line of 17 of these cars, and met at.the same time a melancholy procession coming in the opposite direction — the bodies of ten paupers, carried out from the workhouse for interment I The great mortality of our workhouses is easily accounted for by the fact, that many of the paupers do not apply for admission until they are ex hausted by starvation, beyond recovery. The number of ragged, starving country paupers in our streets is really appalling. I confess it puzzled me for some time to find out where they all came from, for I_ Lth o e conceived that the pauperism of the Western districts 1 our country had been swept almost entirely away r week I find that those squalid, emaciated living beings, famine and fever of 1846-7.

(From the Jersey Times of April 17.) We desire not to rank amid the chimpiolfs of Joseph Mazzini, the master spirit of the extemporised triumvirate w hich fo r a d ay governs R o ane—not to say the R oman S tates; but to him, as to every m an, whether in th e van or rear of things, we wo uld fain see justice r en dered—and by E ng l an d, an d the press of England, m os t espec i ally. But by England, or at all events by the E ng li s h press, speaking geoerallY, justice has not been, b u t, rat h er, gross in j ust i c ,c : has been done to Mazzini. The Times, the ppwe rful bully of every cause which falls into its line of adoption, has from the time of the French outbreak% of February, 1848, and indeed for many years pre viously, made, what may be familiary styled " a dead set" at that able and learned man of political theories and social dreams. Even while he was scarcely heard of beyond the circles of " Young Italy," and since the February efuption, even before his name had whirled up into light from the con vulsed depths of the revolutionary maelstrom, Mazzini has been the man to whom the Times has, now directly, now indirectly, pointed as the head and front of the entire destructive movement of Europe ; at the same time blackening his name, character, and deeds, with every kind of detractive assertion and insinuation, as if they were those of a designing assassin-like conspirator against the human weal of every Christian country, against the family happiness of every Christian hearth. 'The estimate of Joseph Mazzini, as a olitician and as a man, is a very false one; and the conduct of the writers in the Times is infinitely the more reprehensible, from the fact that they know that it is falsehood. The cause to which Mazzini has from early youth devoted himself, to which he has sacri ficed country, family, home, all personal competence and comfort, to which he has unflinchingly adhered through exile and sickness and poverty, to which he has subordinated even his intense love for the pre cious relics of Italisn art, converting them into the sinews of government and war, and to which he may be destined soon to devote his last breath of life, be fore a musket or on a scaffold—that cause, Mazzini has ever believed, and still believes, to be the most greatly just one of the temporal world. The present head of the Roman Government—if, at the moment in which we write, Rome have a Government at all —is a visionist, a mystic ; a believer in (at all events for long ages yet to come) impossible systems for the world's government and the perfectability of human nature and happiness on this earth : all this Mazzini is; but a dishonest man, a cunning plotter against the welfare of men and nations, he is not. For the rest, all human delusions—even generous ones—bring about their own dire awakening and punishment; and Mazzini's future promises to be as full of disappointment and desolation as his past. The physical forces at his command must prove as a broken reed before either the Papal influences or the Austrian sword ; the very people whom he has sought to enfranchise, far beyond their material and moral capabilities of freedom, will ere long turn upon and trample him down ; and his best fate will be, to die in the " harness" which he has assumed ; his worst, to pine away the remainder of his days in a reinflicted and hopeless exile from his once more prostrated country. To such a man, so intending and so doomed, the great practical onward world of society must na turally be severe; but should at the same time be merciful and just. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, MONDAY.—Her Serena Highness the Princess Hohenlohe and suite arrived here this after noon to see the various objects of interest in the port. The naval and military authorities received the distin guished visitors with the usual ceremonials. The Lieu tenant Governor's carriage received them at the railway station, and the barge of the Commander-in-Chief em barked them from the Victoria-pier, and conveyed them to the Superb, 80, at Spithead, on board which they re mained about an hour a , d a half, inspecting the ship and partaking of the hospitality of Captain Purcell. The ship was dressed, but, by her Majesty's command, no salute was fired. After inspecting the Superb, the illus trious strangers inspected the Victory, flag-ship, Captain Blackwood, and the Excellent, gunnery-ship, Capt.Chade, C. 13., and returned to London. The Fearless steam-tender has been placed pro. tern. in the command of Mr. Roskilly, Master, R.N., for sur veying service, under the command of Captain Beechy. She arrived from Plymouth last night, and left this after noon for Woolwich. Wind—N.W., moderate breeze and cloudy weather, with an'appearance of squalls. PLYMOUTH, APRIL 21.-11er Majesty's steam-vessel Myrtle, which arrived last night with gunners from the Excellent and a few seamen for her Majesty's sloop Heroine, sailed again to-day for Portsmouth. Yesterday a hired ligger named Oliver, employed heaving up the timber of the San Josef, was struck by the bar of a small capstan and injured so severely that he died the same evening at the Royal Naval Hospital. To-day a shipwright's apprentice named Moses, was conveyed to the same establishment in consequence of having broken a blood-vessel through having been run over by a cart in the yard. The Sir Francis Drake, steam-packet, Captain W. Sadler, from the Channel Islands, which arrived at Ply mouth this morning, reports that the brig Active, of Poole, with bread and salt for Newfoundland, drove ashore on the 19th at Guernsey; and that a barque of 400 tons, belonging to Mr. Dequetteville, broke from her moorings on the 18th and went on the rocks at Jersey. Off the Start, seven or eight miles south, on Saturday, 21st, at 5 s m., the Drake saw a new two-masted steamer, from 1,200 to 1,500 tons, steering west down Channel. Her two funnels, paddle-boxes, boats, and roundhouse aft were painted white and she was deeply laden. The steamer Despatch, Captain Babot, from South ampton to the Islands, saw on Thursday morning, the 19:b, 14 or 15 sailors on the Needles rocks and the hull of a large ship rolling about among the breakers. The weather prevented the Despatch from assisting, but Captain Babot returned and reported the circumstance at Hurst Castle before leaving. MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) EAT DIII.3I3LiGTS.
