MR. WILSON'S BURNS" " NIGHT Wl' Mr. Wilson's " Night wi' Burns," pre-advertised for deli. very on Monday at the Music-rooms in Store-street, drew toge ther a full and attentive audience. The early life of Buri.s formed the first subdivision of the syllabus —the South and boy hood of Burns, when as yet the embryo and inchoate poet was last shooting up into the stature of man, both in mind and body, but not in an Edinburgh or Glasgow University, or amid the dusty terminologies and abstract metaphysics of Dr. Blair or Dr. Reid, the Scottish sophists of his day, but amid the illi mitable light and the air, learning large and unsophisticated lessons of wisdom in the fields and pastures, that made him a man, manlike, and imbued hit spirit w th those sympathies and feelings that caused his na'ure to overflow with the bright wine of heroism, tenderness, and love. Mr. Wilson, with a true spirit of fervour, co-allied himself well with the subject of his lecture. Love, he proceeded to show, was the inspirer of his earliest song, and the genuine feeling Mich prompted the first outpouring of his heart, being that also which pervaded the hundreds that followed, was the true cause that had led to their subsequent adoption and translaion in German, French, and Danish. Being the natural vintage of his spirit, the universality of h.l songs was no wonder, and, therefore, ob served Mr. Wilson, my surprise was somewhat mitigated when in 1840, on crossing the Atlantic, and landing at Baltimore, my first salutation by a countryman was " Och, mon, ye're just come in the nick o' time; this is Burns' birthday !" And, truly, across the wilderness of waters, there, on that very day, we e feasts of celeoration dedicated to the " dead master of melody Burns's predilections at school were re corded by Mr. Wilson to have been among such readings as the " Vision of Mirza," and in a devotional point of view " Ad dison's Hymn." Religion, indeed, swayed him in no un powerful manner; his chief gratification, and upon which he composed one of his first poems, " Winter, a dirge," was to walk up and down a forest-walk, amid the solemn swinging of the boughs, while the storm-winds drifted the snows and howled in the mountains. It was then he fancied that " the Lord walked on the wings of the wind." < Among gee models of ancient virtue that took him greatly, was that of Nar?nibal, and beside him William Wallace. The splendid o!e apper taining to this last hero bears no trivial stamp of the impression he had made upon his mind. "It is the grandest ode out of the Bible," said Professor Wilson, and the emphasis with which the lecturer sang it. confirmed every hearer in the prepossession. From seventeen to twenty, no less than half a dozen fair forms.,,appear by turns to have haunted the imagination of young Burns ; 'each. Ike a beauti ful phantom, appearing and then flitting fram before but each evoking from him song. " Handsome Nell," was his first charmer ; to her succeeded " Tibbie," which we were given to understand was an etheliptic for "Is abella," whose other maiden name was Stephens; " bonny blooming Peggy," profuse with fair hair, cherry-lips, and smiles, he next idolized, but finding her betroth e d, b a d e h er ' farewell in some elegant stanzas.My Nannie Oh," was another of his erotic effusions, addressed to a godd ess o f hi s devotions, and this far from the last. Burns's independence broke out more than once at school. " Nonsense, Sir" said his master, to a theme Burns had proposed to argue with a companion, as to whether a general or merchant. was most useful in society. " Sir," said Burns, "if before the whole school you like to argue it with me, well." The dominic consented, and defended the general ; Burns stood up for the merchant; the young dialec tician was a stout gladiator, and finally old Ferule's hands shook, and the eantest was pronouuced for Burrs. Mr. Wilson, in the second part of his lecture entered largely into the sad difficulties and troubles that distorted the serenity of the good poet's life, and related, as the pleasantest exception, the kindness he experienced from the Earl of Glencairn. It is after this Lord that the poet's brother, Major Glencairn Burns, was named. This venerable gentleman occupied in person with his family the centre dress-box in the rooms, and recog nised, by bowing, the a: plause occasioned by the lecturer's mention of his name and presence. The affability of Lord Daer, too, w as another g li mpse o f grace along the rugged pall, which , as an exciseman, with thirty five pounds a-year, and a wife and two children, he led in penance. At the time that he was a gauger this office was the most detested of the kind in Scotland. " What are yon fishing or, boy ?" " Devils !" " What do you bait with ?" " Gaugers," is a characteristic anecdote of the period. Burn's " honey moon" song, comp-ell by him on his marriage with " Bonnie Jean," has little voluptuous in it, but is rather the same sort of serious epithalamium as the Romans sung, when the bride's ha r was parted wii h a spear, and the keys delivered up. " The Dell's awa wi' the exciseman," sped from Mr. Wilson's lips with excellent spirit. This was the song with which Burns, sword in hand, attacked a contraband brig and valorously rapt ured her, having composed th e song f or hi s comrades on th e occas i on. B urns , i n his last moments, died in fear of gaol, and wrote, under that terror, for 5/ to hi, friend George Thompson, to save him from it: on his dying day, two ladle., called to see him; one drew'down the blind, supposing the sun to be too fierce. "No, dear," exclaimed he, "let him shine on ; it will not be for long ; l e t him shine !" One of his comrade volunteers wa s i n the room. " Don't let the awkward squad fire over me, John," said Burns ; he was, however, buried Ki h military honours. Since his death, a splendid monument has been erected to him at Dumfries, and others elsewhere. Mr. Wilson, we perceive, gives " Anither night Wl' Burns," on Tuesday, the Vd ; and on Easter Monday, chiefly for the ju veniles, a recapitulation o his choicest songs.

That, with this view it is first of all necessary to satisfy the people that there should be no invidious exemptions, but that the highest personages in the State shall be permitted to beat their due of a burden which absolute necessity alone could warrant the Parliament to impose. 5. That with the same view it is expedient to make a dis tinction between income arising from capital of every descrip tion and income arising from labour, merely by levying a smaller proportion of the latter income than the former. 6. That with the sama view it is expedient to make a dis tinction between income possessed by persons who have only an interest in the same for their lives, or for some .esser term, and income possessed by persons who have an interest in the capital whence the income arises, evying a larger proportion of the latter income than of the former. • 7 That with the same view it is expedient to make no dis tinction in favour of persons in the civil service of the State, or of persons receiving pensions from the State. The justice and sound policy of these resolutions will not be disputed by any one pretending to make justice the basis of popular taxation. No Minister but a Tory could dream of taxing the wages of labour, whether of the head or hand, at as high a rate as income derived frotn rent, dividends, bank-stock, railway shares, and other descriptions of real property. All real property exists and its security is guaranteed by the Govern merit, but labour, till it becomes real property, cannot be said to have any existence, and therefore its protection costs the country nothing. Besides, the wages of labour is the life of the labourer. It is the bread without which himself and his family would starve, and all that exceeds his weekly consumption is but a crust., which he is en titled to hoard against the accidents of ill-health, do mestic calamity, and helpless old age. To tax wages equally with real property, is to tax genius, talent, so briety, industry, and enterprise equally with luxury, opulence, extravagance, and vice.

A crowded meeting, convened by the Chartists, was held on Monday, parsuant to public notice, at the Vestry-rooms, Gordon-square,St. Pancras, for thepur pose, as s t a t e d i n th e bills, "of adopting measui es tog inakk a t he Ch ar t er b ecom' t h jes ty to di sm i ss t rial law of the lanai, and of:prayin her her Council her prese n t advisers." Though the meeting was called for seven o'clock, tl e busi ness did not commence until eight o'clock, at . which hou r th e chair was taken by Mr. Farrar. The CHAIRMAN commenced by stating, that though he w a strict Chartist, he desired that every one w h o m i g h t wislr to address the meeting would be allowed to do so ; he highly de precated the conduct pursued by some Gentlemen who called meetings for the avowed object of eliciting public opinion. but would not allow any one to speak but their own agens, thus making public meetings, as the Duke of Wellington had expressed it, a public farce. He believed this meeting had been called for the purpose of effecting a unites between the middle and working classes; whilst people ai peared to be striving fur a union, he was sorry to see them quibbling about straws —adopting various names, but always shirking the question of the Charter. Thus it might be Wen from the papers, that a meeting of the Radical Club, at N hid' Mr. Hume presided, had been lately held at Radley's Hotel, where the object was to give everything in the Charter but Annual Parliaments.—(" Oh.") He was the more sur prised at this, es hen he remembered that Mr. Hume, when in Parliament, had adopted the principles of the Charter. Mr. Sturge, of Birmingham, also had been talking about his " com elete suffrage," and had called meetings on the matter ; but if Mr. Sturge were to propose such a thing in London, he (the Chairman) stould rise and propose an amendment. — Hear. )—lie should recommend the Chartists to combine with no par ty who were not prepared to combine with them on one principle, and that, the Charter. He thought they should agitate now for all the points of the Charter, and then let agitation cease, aid for ever.—( Hear, hear.) After a few more remarks, the Chairman concluded by calling on Mr. Pelting to move the National Petition. Mr. PEW NG regretted that the duty which devolved upon him had not upon into other hands. He then read the National Petition at length, and briefly proposed it for tl.e adoption of the meeting. AIN MEAD, of Birmingham, said he heartily seconded the proposition. As a true British tailor he always felt happy when lighting in the cause of liberty, that cause for which, when a )(rung man, he also fought, but in a different way—( Cheer s.) He had now ad voca t e d the cause of Cha r ti sm for two years, at much expense to his pocket. and at some personal danger ; but he had nailed his colours to the mast-head of the old Britannia, ,id he would stick to them yet.--( dear, hear.) They had had Lord John Russell's nostrum, and he had proved himself a perfect quack.—( Loud cheering.) Now they had Bobby Peel's Aran, and they were going to have a property tax, and inasy people thought that it would be a great thing ; and so it would, but it would c me out of the people's pocket aker all, oecause if they taxed the property of the middle men they would immediately lower the wages of their workmen.—( Hear near.) The measure, however, was better than they expecte from such a man as Peel ; but the fact was he had felt thd pressure from without ; the Chartists were, as the renegade Dis Patch had lately , discovered, a powerful body,, and Peel 1, e 'it roo.—( Hear, hear). lla conyended for equat rights, equel taear ion, and equal ropresentatiori; tint roast would never get that till the Charter became the law of the .and ; th e y hui an indubitable right to thi' • it had been given to the m b y t h e i r f ore f at h ers , an d, b y t h e Heaven above, they hal moral strength enough to regain it.— (Cheers.) Then as to the &ate Church, lock at what it was; why, Lord Chat lam, fifty years ago, said that it was a mockery, composed ef a Popish Liturgy, an Armenian clergy, and Calvaniatic articles. When compared with the dimiples of our meek re deemer' what a farce was the conduct of the ministers of our Church. They were to be found in the gambling hell., the race-course, the hunting-ground, and every w here, in fact, but where they ought to be—the paths of virtue and humility.— ( Cheers.) Was it a wonder, then, that the Charter demande I the abolilition of a State Church? Ile believed that. a State Church was the source of all moral, social, and political evils. —( Hear, hear.) He rejoiced to say, however, that there were some good men in the Church ; and whilst there were such men amongst theta as the Rev. Dr. Wade, the Rev. W. Spencer, and ths Rev. Mr. Price, he could not condemn them all.—(Cheers.) lie next came to the matter of glass legia lotion, and he would say most unhesitatingly that to class legislation were owing the evils of the State Church which he had endeavoured to depict.—( Hear.) If they wanted to carry the Charter they must shut up their pockets, and use as few exci.cable articles as possible; let them do as the men of Birmingham did at the time of the lie'orm Bill, who had large placards printed, and stuck them in their windows, intimating that they would pay no tax till the Reform Bill was passed.—(Hear.) Property qualification was t he greatest curse this country ever had. In one case the bricks anti mortar voted for the return of Members of Parliament, and in the other case a barber's block, with plenty of yellow dirt in his rocket, became their representatives, whilst honest poor men could not vote, arid talented poor men could not speak to uphold the rights of the people.—( Hear, hear.) Time, however, was precious; their time was precious; and he wonld call upon the numerous assembly to co-operate in obtaining the Charter for the law of the land. Now was the time, and he would remiini them, as Shakspeare said, that " There is a tide lii the affairs of man, which, taken at the full, Leads on to greatness." Let them go on then, floe, for now was the time in this great moral warfare; anti with Macbeth he would say to them, " Lay on Macduff, And damned be lie that first cries Hold, enough !" Mr. Mead resumed his seat amidst loud applause. Dr. WADE next rose to speak to the resolution. He was an old Reformer, and Mr. Mead might recollect that some years ago be agitated for the Reform !Sill in Birmingham, anti the reason he liked the Charter was, because the points for which he streve then, piecemeal and in detail, the Charter now con tained whole anti entire.—(Hear.) Ile had since then been to Scotland, where he had the honour of being deputed by the sorking classes of London. He was the first who int roduced the Charter into Scotland. It was there he wade the acquaint ance of their excellent fl iends Messrs. Sankey and Thomas Murphy. He was the first to stir up the bold Scotch, and to invite the blue bonnets to come over the border.—(Cheers.) He had also gone to the Queen to petit.on for the restoration of Frtet, Williams, and Jones, and there manfully, but inef fectua lv, had he argued their cause. His desire was to see the people happy, and it was that which had induced him to do what he had done in their service. The same principles actuated }inn now which actuated him then, anti to obtain the people's happiness he believed the Charter was the best—the only ob ject.—( Hear, hear.) He thought working men should be nominated as candidates for Members of Parliament, and re ferred the meetings to Norway, where the affairs of the Stase were conducted by wo king men, anti where the affairs and accounts were brought out in the clearest and most accurate manner. The Reverend Doctor then proceeded to comment at some length upon the articles of belief contained in the Ct arter, and concluded by expressing his hearty concurrence with every thing contained in the six points. He had heard there was to be aConference at Birmingham, for the purpose of considering the union between the middle and working classes ; if he should have the honour of bein g deputed to go there by any of the London Associations, he should stand up for the Charter whole and entire.—( Loud cheers.) The petition was then put frost the Chair, and carried una nimously, amidst loud cheers. Mr. NICHOLSON, in a speech of some duration, which want of space wholly precludes us from inserting, moved a resolu tion, declaring class-legislation to be the root of all evils, social, mo ral, and political, and that the meeting, being of opinion that a great evil required a great remedy, was determined to adopt the People's Charter. Dr. M`Dowacc rose with great pleasure to second this re. solution. He cautioned the Chartists to beware of the pro fessions of the middle-class men ; whatever might be their pro fessions, he did not believe that they were actuated by any desire to benefit the great portion of mankind. They never troubled their heads ahou' politics till politics interfered with them ; anti then they began to think about some reformation. Their interests were now interfered with, anti they sought for some c hange, but he would warn the labouring-classes not to trust to their sincerity, for so soon as Cheyebtained their object, which might be the abolition of the Corn and Provision-laws, perhaps, they would forget their professions and leave the working-men to fight their battle alone.—( Cheers. ) With regard its the income tax proposed by Sir R. Peel, he would assure the working men that they would ultimately have to pay it—it would all come cut of their pockets. He cared not where they put the tax, whe.her they put it on champagne, which the working men never saw, or upon port wine, which they never drank ; it was the same in the end, the labouring-class paid for it all.—( Hear, hear.) The repeal of the Corn-laws would be of no service to the people. Such a con cession might have suited them very well some fifty or sixty years ago, but now they were much in advance of such a principle as that ; now that they were sticking at the tree of corruption, what vs as the good of one saying, Strike here,. and nother saying, No, strike here, a yard higher. He would strike at the root at once, and bring down the whole at one fell swoop.—( Hear, hear.) T he Doctor then briefly adverted to the grievances of the Irish people, and having gene over the various parts of the National Petition, he concluded, amidst great cheering, by expressing his hearty and entire concurrent e in the resolution which he hail had the honour of seconding. Several other speeches were delivered by persons present, and a memorial was agreed on to her Alajesty, respectfully praying her to dismiss from her Council her present advisers. Votes of thanks were passed to the Chairman and the gentle men who had addressed them in the course of the evening. The meeting, which had been throughout conducted with the greatest propriety, separated at a very late hour.

EXTRAORDINARY AND DETERMINED SUICIDE OF reasni' aged 21, th e w if e of a sur ding at No. 16, i n the same a LADY.—On Monday forenoon an in quest was taken before Mr. Wakley, M.P., coroner, and a respectable Jury, at the Rent Day, Cambridge-street , E d g eware-ro ad , on view of the body i o n f A ex l r t s e . n si A v l e i ria p m r a c l t ) i c ic e km , street. Mr. David Dickman deposed that the deceased was his wife, and had been married to him about six months. For the last eight or ten weeks she . had laboured under a nervous excitement, and would occasionally express her ap prehension that she should lose hi r reason, at which times she would desire every sort of weapon to be kept out of her way, or otherwise she might destroy herself. Witness last sa v deceased alive a little after ten o'clock, on Saturday morning,when she appeared c al m and c omposed. About half-past twelve o'clock he had just _returned fr om v i s i t i ng a patient, when his female servant informed him, that missing the deceased, she had been to her room, and f ound the doer locked. Witness, whose fears were greatly heightened, judg ing the worst had happened, has tened to t he room, and re ceiving no answer to his repeat ed knockings h e b ,. vest open the door, and on entering the r oom he beheld deceased lying on the floor, deluged in blood, which was ; flowing from a frightful wound in her throat. Witness, at one glance, saw that life was quite extinct. The Jury returned a verdict of " Temporary Insanity." A letter from Constantinople, of the 16th ult , in the Cologne Gazette, states that 'I ahir Pach a h as given in his resignation as Minister of War, which post he held provision ally, and has been replaced by Hafiz Pacha, under the title of Seraskier Kaimakan. This letter contradicts the. statement of a finnan having been published, forbidding the use of the European costume, except by public functionaries.

Lord BROUGHAM announced in the House of Lords last night, that at the request of several Peers he had consented to postpone his resolutions upon the Tory scheme of an income tax till Thursday. We regret this delay exceedingly. Upon no occasion was it of more importance-that the country should have the bene fit of that Noble and Learned Lord's stirring eloquence, profound sagacity, extensive acquaintance with the great principles of political science, and varied knowledge of our entire social system, than during the discussions upon the question of an income tax in time of peace Not that we by any means adopt the whole of Lord BROUGHAM'S views as embodied in his resolutions. From some of them, and they, too, of the most important character, we entirely dissent. Nevertheless, we are extremely anxious to see him take up th e question, certain as we are that he will d e al with it in a spirit of ertfarkoti statesmanship, of which few members of the British fegislattlte are at all capable. But merely to dissent in opinion from any of Lord BROUGHAM'S resolutions, is very pro perly not allowed by the public to the press contro verters of the opinions of men so deservedly eminent, and so generally worthy of national confidence. We feel, therefore, that we are called upon to examine these reso lutions in detail, in order that we may have an opportunity of fairly placing before our readers what Lord BROUGHAM proposes to do, and upon what grounds we occasioniify differ with an authority, for which we have its general so profound a respect. The first resolution is as follows:- 1. That a direct tax upon income ought never to be resorted to, unless in some great emergency of public affairs, when an extraordinary expenditure may become unavoidable for a time, or in some pressure upon the finances of The country, which can be sustained by no other means. This resolution has our entire concurrence. In a com mercial country, where the basis of wealth is credit, it can never be resorted to, be the emergency what it may, without entailing ruin upon thousands, sapping the foundation of public morality, and rendering the Govern ment having recourse to it odious to the whole commu nity. The second resolution says:- 2. That such a tax ought on no account to form part of the ardinary revenue of the State, but to cease with the necessity which alone could justify its impositlon—inasmuch as, besides all the other objectionsto which it is liable, its inquisitorial ope ration being equally vexatious, whatever sums are levied, the facility of increasing its amount according to the real or sup posed exigencies of the public service offers a constant tempta tion to extravagance on the part of the Government, removing the most effectual check upon improvident expenditure, and disi easing with the necessity of seeking a revenue in re trenchment. With the whole of this resolution we agree as heartily as with the first. Its object is to pledge Parliament that as soon as the income tax has supplied the deficiency in the revenue, which has forced the Government to call it into existence, it shall cease and tltermine. The Noble and Learned Lord has a proper dread, which the coun try shares with him, that when the Tories once get hold of the income tax they will keep it. Rather than part with it they will involve us in disputes and wars with our neighbours ; in schemes of foreign conquest to en rich themselves, and their partisan ; and in all sorts of expensive jobs devised only to swallow up the income of the country. Now is the time to take mea sures for preventing this system of public plunder, and Lord BROUGHAM'S second resolution is the first note of warning. The third resolution declares :- 3. That although the actual deficiency in the revenue to meet the expenditure, amounting to above 7,000,000/. in fire years. and the estimated deficiency for next year, amounting to above 2,500,000/., besides probable demands arising from the state of affairs in the East, may render the temporary re course to an income tax necessary, after an attempt to in crease by 1-20th the duties of Excise and Customs has ended in obtairung a 200th only, thereby proving the impassibility of drawing any further revenue from in crease d taxes on consump tion, while the relief which may justly be expected both to commerce and to finance, from low er i ng - t h ose taxes, cannot. b e ma de immediately available, yet it behoves the Parliament, as faithful guardians of the people's rights and interests, to take care that during the temporary existence of this tax its pres sure shall be distributed in such a manner as shall make it most easily and most patiently be borne. The necessity of a temporary income tax is here ad- is as follows : S. That it is neither consistent with justice nor with sound policy to levy a greater proportion of tax upon larger Incomes than upon smaller incomes ; and that an exemption of even the - smallest income from the operation of the tax can only be justified on the supposition that the owners are wholly un able to pay it. We are decidedly opposed to the whole of this reso- ''on, and, we confess, we are altogether at a loss . Oa consider how a statesnjan of Lord BROUGHAM'S com manding intellect could mink of recommending it to the adoption of Parliament. Does the Noble Lord suppose that,an income tax of three per cent. would not fall ' • heavier upon a man with two hundred per annum than tilt). same rate of tax would upon a Peer of the realm, having 50,0001. a year ? The tax curtails the poor man's dinner, and perhaps renders him unable to give edueation to his children ; but from the wealthy Peer or rich commoner it' only takes, at the utmost, the means of indulging in-some uselesS and pernicious extravagance. The Peer may keep a hunter or two less, and when not in town, may contrive to dispense with a box at the Opera, or the membership of an expensive club, but will Lord I3RoucHA3t weigh these aristocratic inconveni ences against those of a family emerging above absolute want, where a pound in the year to devote to the educa tion of a son or a daughter, or two or three of both, is of the last importance ? And has the Noble Lord consi dered what such families would endure rather than claim an exemption from taxes on the plea of poverty ? Surely he is no stranger to the delicate pride of genteel indi gence—a pride which none who respect the virtue of the industrious middle classes but ought to treat as tender as the apple of the eye. In that pride—that respectable economic saving of appearances, we have the salt which sweetens and preserves all that is most estimable in our national character. An income tax appears to us as unjust without a sliding scale, as a Corn-bill with one. If we must have such a tax we would recommend it to begin with one per cent, on small incomes, and gradually ascend to seven per cent. upon fixed property. Among the ob jections universally taken to Sir ROBERT rznes scheme is the hardship and injustice of taxing an income of -150/: and allowing one -of 440/. to escape. The remedy for this injistice is obvious. Parliament has only to in sist that only the excess of income over and above 15C1 shall be subject to taxation, and so on throughout the scale. Thus, say a man has 300/. a year, tax him for the surplus 1501. If he have 600/., tax him for 4504 and no more. Again, in taxing property of a - great amount, suppose five per cent. be the rate upon 10,000/. a year, and seven per cent. upon 20,0001. Of the latter let only one-half be liable to the high rate of taxation. This principle is an equitable one, and in its operation presents not the slightest difficulty. By means of a properly-constructed set of tables the most ignorant collector could make his returns without the occurrence of a mistake once in seven years. We trust eur readers will now be satisfied that where we differ from the Noble and Learned Lord, it is not upon slight or casual grounds. Of the I+ hole question of the income tax, we have only to say, in conclusion, that we feel certain that the country will not long tole rate it under any circumstances whatever. It is but the prelude to a property tax. MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS. FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAT. TlMES.—Thepremium on gold at Paris is 9per male, which at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 100. per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of 25 37k, and the exchange at 1 - ?aris on London at short being 25 55, it follows that gold Is 0.70 per cent. dearer in London than in Paris. By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is 4331 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 10%d. per .ounce, for standard gold, gives an exchange of 13 9A, and the exchange at Hamburgh on London at short being 13 101 1 , it follows that gold is 0.57 per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburgh. The course of exchange at New York on London is 108 per cent., and the par of exchange between England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it follows that the ex change is 1.58 per cent, against England. But the quoted exchange at New York being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be deducted from the above difference. S UN,—A marked and decided improvement took place at the close of business, in the value of all description of securities. The abundance of unemployed capital, and the certainty that no new loan will be contracted, has caused public attention to be drawn to our Stocks in particular. Consols advanced to 89R 4, for Money, and A9i 90 for the account. Exchequer Bills 30s. to 325. prem. he present account in the Foreign market having proved to be a Pear one, the oppcsite party have taken advantage of the settleVnent by creating a scarcity of stock ; consequently quota tions are all higher.

The Chairman stated that notwithstanding all the provision made for the support of the poor-houses, the streets were now crowded with a worse description of beggars than he had ever seen before. Those persons were disgusting, not only on ac count of their filth, but from the deception they practised to procure alms; for instance, he had seen the same woman with twins in her arms for the last this ty years.—( Laughter. ) The Seiretary put the following declaratory resolution, which was carried, to the effect that mendicancy in Dublin has, since the opening of the workhouses in this city, and the consequent repeal of those laws, again greatly increased, and now prevails therein to a disgraceful extent, and in its most disgusting forms. A deputation was finally appointed to wait on the Lord Lieu tenant. The trial of General Levasseur, — and the seconds, concerned in the duel between the General and M. Arrighi, in which the latter was killed, took place on the 9th inst., before the Court of Assizes for the Bouches du Rhone, held at Aix. After a long hearing, the Jury retired in the evening to con • cider their verdict whether General Levasseur was guilty of voluntary and premeditated murder, and whether the other prisoners were guilty as accomplices. In twenty minutes the Jury returned into Court, and delivered a general verdict of Not Guilty in favour of all the accused, and they were imme diately discharged, amidst unequivocal marks of congratulation from the numerous audience. There are moments in which we live years— moments, which steal the roses from the cheek of health, and plough deep furrows in the brow of youth. The Editor of the Courrier de la Sarthe alopeared nn the 10th inst. before the Court of Assizes st Le ,la.ns ' on in indictment for having published an article in the J ourna l di on the 19th January, which tended to excite hatred and contempt against the King's Government ; but the jtjry found is verdict of Not Guilty, and he We acpitted. ALARMING FIRE. This morning, about half-Tait two o'clock, a fire took place in the house of Air. Jardine, a chemist and druggist, in Drury-lane, nearly opposite Great Queen-street, Long acre. It originated in the back parlour, on a level with the shop, and the first intimation the family received of the danger to which they were exposed was by their having been awoke by smoke. With great presence of mind Mr. Jardine, his wife, children, and servants snatched up what apparel laid near them, and all hope of escape basing been cut off at the bolom of the house, they managed to reach the roof, when, after some difficulty, they were assisted into the house of Mr. Perryman, eating-house keeper, of Long acre. The police-officers of the F division, with Mr. Inspector Musgrove at their head, soon procured an engine from a neigh bouring brewery, and quickly afterwards twelve others belong ing.to the London Establishment, West of England, and County stations, also arrived, but notwithstanding all the exertions of the firemen, the entire stock, furniture, and building of Air. Jardine were destroyed, as also the greaterpirt of the property of Mr. Walker, upholsterer, adjoining. We regret to state that one of the firemen, in coming down a stair with the hose, fell with great violence on his back, and was carried in a dan gerous state to Charing. cross Hospital. The Sentinelle des Pyrenees of the Bth says "The rage for emigration to Monte Video, far from having sub sided, has increased, and no ono can say where it will stop. On Thursday last the Chateaubriand and the Jeune Marseillais sailed from Passages for 11lonte Video with about 600 passen gers, and three other vessels, the Cyrus, Gabriel, end Trois Freres, are preparing to leave Passages with emigrants for the same destination." VY ALARMING FIRE.—DESTRUCTION OF A COTTON FACTORY.—On Monday evening the neighbourhood of Shore ditch presented an extraordinary degree of excitement, in consequence of a most destructive fire breaking out, on the extensive cotton factory belonging to Mr. Yorke, situated in the densely populated part of London, known at French-alley, within a short distance of Shoreditch church. We are sorry to say that. not a ves►ige of either the building or its contents could be savet How the fire originated no t.ne could tell. By the calamity upwards ofone hundred hands will be thrown out of employment. 'The Toulonnais states that in the duel between Lieutenant Excelmans and an Italian g entleman, place in Corsica not many days since, as we stated, t‘htaencom: batants fought with swords, but the Italian would not dxcbe fore his adversary, and at length turned and ran.

NEW DISCOVERY in TEETII—Mr. A_ HOWARD, Surgeon-Dentist, 52, Fleet. street, has in introduced AN ENTIRELY NEW DESCRIPTION of ARTIFICIAL TEETH, fixed without springs, or li gatures. They so perfectly resemble the natural teeth, as not to be distinguished from the originals by the closest observer; they will NEVER CHANGE COLMAR OR DECAY, and will found very superior to any teeth ever before used. This method does not require the extraction of roots, or Buy painful operation, and will support and preserve teeth that are loose, and are, guaranteed to restore articulation and mastication; and, that Sir. Howard's improvement may be within reach of the most economical, he has fixed his chares at the lowest scale possible. Decayed teeth rendered sound and useful in mastication.-52, Fleet-street.

BURGLARY AND SUICIDE.—AXBRIDGE, MARCH 9. —On the evening of Sunday, during church time, a light was perceived in the parsonage house, the residence of the Rev. George Beadon, vicar of this town. The neighbours, with a kind promptitude, came to the door and rang the bell, tic., and in a short time entered the house, both in front and back. Be fore any one was seen the report of a pistol was heard, near the front door, and on reaching the spot a young man, well known to all, was found lying dead, - with a discharged pistol in his right hand, a loaded one in his pocket, and a stick, with lead at both ends, by his side, and an iron instrument under the front door. It was concluded that, seeing escape to be impos sible, he had shot himself. Not an article in the house vi as mi =sing or seemed displaced. No accomplice was discovered. An inquest has been held on the body, and a verdict of " Self-destruction by a pistol," returned. On his person were found a brace of pistols, one discharged and the other loaded, a life preserver, eleven k eys , a "jemmy," made on the best principle, one skeleton key, and picklocks of various descriptions, also the key of the front door, which had been lost about five weeks before, and by which, no doubt, the entrance was efected.— Keene's Bath Journal.
