A. yMENDIZABAL, Prize Agent- London, 16th December, 18.34. TO THE INDEPENDENT ELECTORS OF THE 111 - TROPOLITAN BOROUGH OF FINSBURY GENTI EMEN, AConsiderable number of your brother Electors having invited me to become a Candidate for your metro politan borough, under strong assurances of support from all classes of Reformers, I have gratefully acceded to their request. Gentlemen, a dissolution of Parliament is at hand. Your opi mons are to be appealed to to confirm or reject the appointment of a Tory Ministry. You will be asked, in the third year of a re formed Parliament, whether you will consent to fall back upon their exclusive and illiberal maxims of Government, or to trust to Tory agents for reform measures ! If I interpret your sentiments rightly :I should say you will do neither. I, Gentlemen, am not only re solutely opposed to any such retrograde movement, but am anxious to see a greater infusion of popular feeling in our institutions than at present. I have no fears of tLe English people, nor "contempt for popular meetings." On the contrary, I think that the only safe and proper principle of Government, in this enlightened country, is to secure the greatest sympathy between the governors and the governed which may consist with social order. On that principle I was a supporter of the Reform Bill, and, with a view to perfect that measure, I am an advocate for Triennial Parliaments. I think, also, that the representative system is likely to be im proved by taking the votes by ballot. Circumstances have occurred to convince me that elections cannot be conducted free from the in fluence of power and intimidation under the present mode of voting, and I look for the remedy of that evil in the ballot. As the late Ministry were dismissed on the important question of Chnrch Reform, I have to state that, as I wish to preserve the in tegrity of the Church of England as the National Establishment, so I would purify it from all its abuses and intolerance. I am, therefore, a decided advocate for the Abolition of Pluralities, Translations, and Church Rates ; and I will never cease to contend that Dissenters of all denominations have an equal right with my self to every civil privilege, and that they should be promptly relieved from all the practical grievances of which they so justly complain. Corporations, as at present constituted, are inconsistent with my principles—they create feelings calculated to disturb the harmony of society, and should, therefore, be reformed on a comprehensive a popular basis. I am anxious for a revision of the Pension List, and for the immediate extinction of all ascertained abuses. I shall ever oppose that vexatious and inquisitorial impost, the Tax upon Windows, and you shall always find me advocating economy in every department of the State, with a view to your relief from those heavy burdens which have been so long and injuriously pressing upon the industry of the people. Electors of Finsbury,—With these principles and opinions I ap pear before you, and, if honoured with your confidence as one of your representatives, I will do my duty to you firmly and inde pendently.—l have the honour to be, Gentlemen, Your faithful and obedient Servant, HENRY WILLIAM HOBHOUSE. No. 11, Pall-mall, December 17, 1834. TO THE ELECTORS OF BATH. GENTLEMEN, IF the lamentable dismissal of the late Ministry should lead to a dissolution of Parliament, I shall beg leave once more to offer myself to your notice, in the confidence that I shall mect the same support I have so frequently experienced from all classes of my fellow citizens, whose welfare it has been my un ceasing and uniform object to advance. After the experience you have had of my principles during twenty five years, it would be insulting you, and degrading myself, to make professions, or any display of my political opinions . They have for their foundation the prosperity and happiness of the people : and, in pursuing the means which I thought best adapted to secure them, I can say, with truth, I have sacrificed all considerations of private interest for the public good, convinced that no honest man can feel truly happy, however abundant his means, if he is conscious those means are wrung from the hard-earned wages of industry. " By heaven ) I had rather coin my heart, And drop my blond for drachmas, than to wring From the hard hands of peasants their vile trash By any indirection." Yet it is by means the most indirect, unjust, and oppressive, that the industry of this noble country is weighed down, and your extra ordinary efforts to secure comfort and independence for yourselves and families rendered abortive. If you look at the situation of all the great interests and divi sions of industry, the real wealth and strength of the nation, what is it? Are agiculturists prosperous ? Are the manufacturers suc cessfully competing with their rivals in every part of the world? Is shipping remunerative? Is commerce profitable ? Are your colonies flourishing? Is the balance of trade so much in your favour as to fill your coffers with gold ? I fear, and indeed I know, that all these questions must be answered in the negative ; and why ? Simply because industry has to pay for every article used or consumed within his Majesty's dominions upwards of 100 per cent. more than it would pay if the Revenue were raised through Pro perty, instead of Expenditure; and until this great measure is effected it is impossible for this country to flourish. The Trades of Glasgow have said, " Give us cheap bread and cheap knowledge," and, as the means of obtaining them, have added, " Give us Household Suffrage, Triennial Parliaments, and the Ballot." These, fellow-citizens, are the vital questions, the carrying of which in Parliament, in my humble judgment, can alone enable you to obtain the further necessary measures to render the Reform Bill of use. I mean a Repeal of the Corn Laws, a Repeal of all Duties of Excise, a Repeal of the Assessed Taxes, an equitable and discriminatine . ' adjustment of the Stamp Duties, and a Customs' Regulation Act, whereby all Custom Duties should be levied by an equal per tentage on the value of the article imported, with a power of exacting discriminating duties on articles imported or exported in foreign vessels, according as those vessels belong to nations which agree or refuse to meet this country and her colonies on those fair and equitable terms which alone constitute a real Free Trade system. Let Property take upon itself the liquidation of the Public Debt; for by Property it was contracted, and by Property it must be li quidated, or the Public Creditor must ultimately suffer ; for its burden can no longer be sustained as at present by the industrious classes. Call for and obtain this change in the system of our Re venue, and every class will flourish. The expense of purchase, transit, shipment, frieght, and Mer chants' charges and profits will be an ample protection to the Bri tish Farmer, to whom his superior skill, machinery, and industry will secure additional profits. Your Manufacturers will no longer be reduced to the necessity of half-starving their people, and of so deteriorating their material, that foreign articles are rapidly super seding them in foreign and even in your domestic markets. Your Shipowners will no longer complain that they can neither build, equip, victual, or man their ships, in competition with other nations. The profits of Commerce will no longer be confined to the monopolists, who make use of the Pnblic Funds to enable them to engross all profitable traffic, and ruin all who enter into competition with them, whose means are less ample than their own. If we look to our Colonies, where is there one from which there are not constant complaints of distress, only partially re lieved in those whose Government is expending large sums of money, wrung from the bands of the necessitous at home, to support those whom their exertions had previously expatri ated. Lastly, do the management and arts resorted to by the Government and the Bank prevent Gold leaving the kingdom? They do not. If the articles produced by the in dustry of the Country, and afterwards exported, exceeded the value of the articles imported, the difference must. necessarily be paid in Gold, and Gold accordingly would flow into the kingdom : but Gold is leaving this Country daily ; and, what is an aggravation of the evil, is that the Imports are in a great proportion as to value, luxuries for the rich, which pay but trifling duties compared with those imposed on the less costly, but more bulky, articles imported for the use of the People. It is with these opinions, principles, and feelings that, in the event of an appeal from the Crown to the People, at the present important crisis, I shall again come forward as the determined op ponent of the party whom I ever have opposed as the worst enemies to their King and Country. I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, with great respect, You faithful and obedient Servant, CHARLES PALMER.

R. Hare. Captain Barton, 36th, left the Castle Barracks yesterday, for London, about retiring from the service. Two companies of the Royal Artillery from Gibraltar, re lieved by Captain Heron's division from Dublin, are now at hcaci-quarters, Woolwich. Captain P. Hill, 53d regiment, is appointed an Aide-de- Camp on the Staff of Lieut-Gencral Sir Win. Houstoun, at Gibraltar. The Military Staff of the late Lord Lieutenant of Ireland is completely broken up by the removal of Lord Wellesley. A gunner of the Royal Artillery, stationed at the Pigeon house Fort, Dublin, attempted to cut his throat on Wed nesday : he succeeded in dividing the trachea and principal vessels there. Surgeon Mahon, of the Artillery, was im mediately called upon, and applied ligatures to the arteries, and was under the necessity of introducing a tube into the stomach, through which he takes his food. He is likely to recover. The 47th, 59th, 68th, 70th, and 92d Regiments are now stationed at Gibraltar. The 38th Regiment went to India in 1813. The 48th, in 1817. The 48th are under orders for home, and the 38th still remain abroad 1 TILE. LAST DAYS OF PONIPEIL-Our notice of this splendid production must be brief; bursts of admiration are necessarily so. In this work we see genius speaking in her triumphant language. She has placed tongues in the dead of centuries, and they enchant us. She has disinterred whole populations, and now they breathe, move, and act before us. This work should be first read with the rapidity that intense interest imperatively demands ; again, leisurely, that its poe tical and moral beauties may sink deeply into the heart; and still again, it should be perused with the slow progress of study, that its deep philosophy may be understood. All that we can say, and we could not speak more to the purpose were we to occupy pages, is, read !—read !--read !—Metropolitan Magazine. The country 'Squire of 3001. a-year (an indepen dent gentleman in the reign of Queen Anne) is described as having " never played at cards but at Christmas, when the family pack was produced from the mantel-piece." His chief drink the year round was generally ale, except at Christmas time, when he would make a bowl of strong brandy punch, garnished with a toast and nutmeg. In the corner of his hail, by the fire-sido, stood a large wooden two-armed chair, witha cushion ; and within the chimney-corner were a couple of seats. Here, at Christmas, he entertained his tenants, assembled round a glowing fire, made of the roots of trees, and other great logs, and told and heard the traditionary tales of the village, respecting ghosts and witches, till fear made them afraid to move. In the mean time the jorum of ale was In continual circulation. DEATH BY A BULL.--A fatal accident occurred 012 Monday se'nnight near Bishop's Castle. Mr. Price, of Newton, a respectable fanner, joined with Mr. Sankey, of Partridge, in keeping a bull, which, on the first of the month, was transferred by Mr. Price himself from Partridge to New ton Farm. On approaching home, the bull mistook the pastures, and pushed himself into a wrong field. Mr. Price attempted to drive him away, and lifted up his arms for that purpose. The bull ran furiously at Mr. Price, threw him down, and gored him so violently that he expired in a few hours.— Worcester Herald. DINNER. THE BUCKINGHAMSHIRE CONSERVATIVE A meeting of the Buckinghamshire Agricultural Asso ciation took place yesterday evening, at the County Hall, Aylesbury. His Grace the Duke of Buckingham pre sided. Upwards of 800 persons sat down to dinner, the great majority of whom consisted of the farmers of the county. Besides the Noble President, we observed present the Marquis of Chandos, Lord Boston, Sir Thomas Free mantle, Bart., Sir W. L. Young, Bart., Sir Harry Verney, Bart., Sir John Dashwood King, Bart., Sir Alexander Croke, Bart., Sir John Chetwode, Bart., Sir Robert Gun ning, Bart., Col. Hanmer, M.P., W. Rickford, Esq., M.P., T. P. Williams, Esq., M.P., G. S. Harcourt, Esq. (High Sheriff), Col. Chester, Col. Pigott, Major Bent, Captain Harcourt, Captain Arnold, Captain Swabey, Captain Chase, W. Medley, Esq., G. Lyall, Esq., M.P., Mr. D'lsraeli, and a number of other highly respectable and influential gentlemen. After the usual toasts, The NOBLE PRESIDENT said—Gentlemen, I am now going to give you a toast, which, of itself, you will, I am sure, drink with the greatest enthusiasm, " The Health of the Army of England ;" but with it I shall combine the name of the hero of a hundred fights—(Cheers)—the con queror of France—(Loud cheers)—the deliverer of Europe (Great cheering) the hope of England (Immense cheering)—" The Duke of Wellington and the Army of England"—(Loud, long, and continued cheering, which lasted several minutes.) As the cheers were about to cease, the Noble Chairman again rose, and exclaimed " Up, boys, and at them."—(Renewed applause.) " The health of the Noble Chairman" being drunk, The Duke of BUCKINGHAM rose to return thanks : Gentlemen and Brother Farmers—this meeting is no party meeting ; but still it is a political one ; and God for bid that it should be otherwise. The time never has been, and we hope never will be in England, when the agricul turists of that country will cease to be in their assemblies a political body. It shall never happen whilst I have a voice to prevent it. The object of the present meeting is known to all of you, for all your feelings are interested in it—l mean the distress of the agricultural part of the com munity. Indeed that distress has flashed on the minds and feelings of every body of men of each successive Ministry ; and even in the mind of the King himself, who recom mended that distress to the consideration of Parliament. But how did that Parliament answer the King's appeal on the occasion ? What the answer was I will not say, and I leave it to your feelings to judge of that answer. I ask, what has been the result of the last session of Parliament ; and what good has it done to agriculture ? 0, yes ; it has taken off the tax from short-tailed dogs !—Laughter.) We asked of that Parliament bread, and they gave us a stone.—(Cheers.) But now another era has arisen—ano ther light has dawned upon us —one, I hope, which will speedily illumine the prospects of British farmers.—(Cheers.) The Noble Duke concluded by giving the following toast— " God speed the plough !" The toast was drunk most cordially. Lord BOSTON proposed " The health of the Members of the county of Buckingham." The Marquis of CHANDOS rose to return thanks, and spoke nearly as follows :—My Lord Duke and Gentlemen —there now appears before me in this Court the largest, the most respectable, the most influential, the most wealthy assembly that has ever, within the memory of man, graced this large Hall, to take into consideration the state and condition of the British farmer, and to support him in the best way they can.—(Cheers.) I have for many years advocated the cause of the British farmer, and, I am sorry to say, to no effectual avail. However, the distress of the farmers, during the last few years, has so much increased, that it now requires in their favour the exertions of every man who wishes to see the farmers prosperous and happy, and, by consequence, the whole nation equally so.— (Cheers.) For sixte en ye ars I h ave represented you in Parliament—and during that time I flatter myself that I have never forfeited your confidence, nor swerved an iota from the path I promised to pursue with respect to you.— (Loud cheers, and cries of " No, never.") A great crisis, gentlemen, is now at hand ; it is a crisis that affects in par ticular the British farmer ; for their general state of pros perity was falling of—their prospects were destroyed—their markets were declining—farmers were quitting farms, and labourers were compelled to abandon their families ; there fore, I appeal to you if it be not • time for all Englishmen to come forward and do their duty.—(Hear, hear, hear.) As the Noble Duke in the chair has said, we have lately lived under an administration whose measures we must all confess, were excessively benign towards agriculture !—(Groans and laughter.) But we are now arrived at another and I hope more fortunate period—we have another Administration in England.— ( Hear.) lam more or less acquainted with the Members that are to form the present Administration—they are men more or less dependant on the soil, and I look to them with confidence, and I hope that being men, who, when out of office did support the British farmer, they will not now, when in office, desert him.—(Hear, hear.) I know that many diffiaties-nave arisen, and many differences of opinion prevail, as to the mode in which relief is to be granted to the farmer. Many have very justly thought that the only relief that could be afforded them was the taking off of those taxes that pressed most heavily upon them, and some thought that they might be relieved by taking off the taxes . that fell heavily upon their fellow countrymen in the large towns. For my own part, I have always aided by my vote the inhabitants of towns, and I have constantly called upon them and their representative; to live me their assistance. 1 have not been supported as I have '' supported others. For that reason I call upon all in this room—l call upon the whole county, upon all who possess landed property—upon landlords and tenants, I call upon them all to support one another ; I call upon all the holders of property to do the same, because if but one link in the chain be broken, we may bid adieu to the prosperity of the country.—(Cheers.) I am of opinion that of all classes in the community the farmers mostly re quire the relief of every man present, and of every indi vidual who wishes to see his country happy. I can say that I have always stood forward in my place in Par liament, and stated the objects, the wishes, and the mode of relief, required by the British farmer. I can place my hand upon my heart, and say that I have never forgotten the cause that I first advocated. (Cries of " True, true !") Since my friends have so much confidence in me, I consider it my bounden, my un flinching duty, to pursue every means that may sway Eng land's prosperity—that may make the farmers prosper and yield to them assistance ; and one of the best means I consider is the repeal of the malt tax ; for by its repeal we may have the unrestricted use of corn, which would lead the farmers to brew—enable them to drink good beer, and all by their own fireside, and save the labourer from the contamination of the beer-shops.—(Cheers.) I hope, there fore, that the attention of his Majesty's present Government will, without delay, be directed towards this tax—that they will repeal the whole, or at least a part, of the malt ' tax.—(Cries of " They must repeal the whole.") If we approach the throne in a dutiful and respectful manner, I trust that the Ministers who are at present in power will recollect the support the farmers gave them in times of trouble and uncertainty, and that they will prove that re collection by now, in their turn, supporting the farmers. —(Hear, hear.) I, for one, will not answer for any man ; I will place no confidence in any bosom but my own ; and I think you may place some confidence in me, since, I believe, I have never swerved from the principles I first advocated, nor deceived the confidence they reposed in me at the outset of my political life.—(Cheers.) I tell you that you must ad here to your principles, and I can assure you that I will adhere to mine ; and if you are not saved you must attri bute the blame to men who, in politics, have not adhered to their principles ; and I tell the farmers not to support at the present crisis such men.—(Cheers, and cries of " No Rickford.") I should regret if any one ever doubted that I should support you in the hour of adversity, since you know that I have been your friend in the time of prosperity. No, gentleman ; I shall steadily stand by you, I shall for ever support you, and I shall profess to the latest hour— down to that which bears me to the grave—the same prin ciples and the same feelings that have actuated me through out public life—principles and feelings known and under stood by the country at large, and from which I have never deviated, nor in the slightest manner altered.—( Loud cheer ing.) We must rely on the justice of the Legislature—we must lay before Parliament our distresses, and I think I may say we must confide in the loyal and honourable men that now form the Administration. _ _ _ The Noble Marquis sat down amidst the loudest applause. The Noble PRESIDENT then gave " The health of the Lord Bishop and the Clergy.of the Diocese."—(Cheers.) The Rev. Mr. QUARTLEY returned thanks. We live, said he, in an era when the ties of the Church and State are, by disloyal and unprincipled persons, attempted to be severed.—(Hear, hear.) All knew that such an attach ment was i n separable ; and he was sure the company would join with him in giving gratitude to the clergy for the con scientious discharge of their duties, and to the noble-minded men in le Muse of Peers for having protected the inte rests of the Church.—(Hear, hear.) The Marquis of CHANDOS proposed " Speedy relief to the farmers, and repeal of the Malt Tax." The toast was given from the chair, and drank with loud cheering. Mr. ROLFE agreed that nothing could do so much good to the farmer and to the agricultural labourer as the re moval of the Malt Tax. The removal of that tax would enable the farmer and the labourer to brew their own beer, to remain comfortably by their own fire-side, and regale themselves with that wholesome and invigorating beverage ; besides, the country would be more cultivated—barley would be more extensively grown, and that, at least, would be one great relief to agricultural depression, which was never greater than it was at the present moment. Agri culture was placed upon the quicksand of despair, and it would be ultimately and completely wrecked, if it were not properly and substantially supported.—(Cries of " Hear, hear.") The manufacturers might cry out for cheap bread, but they could not do so in justice, when the price of agri cultural labour was so much diminished. He, for one, hoped that the master-sinew of the nation and of the state would prosper as it had done under their ancestors. He begged to conclude by proposing as a toast, " The health and prosperity of the nobility and gentry of the county of Buckingham." The toast was received with loud applause. Sir ALEXANDER CROKE (by permission of the Noble Chairman) proposed " The health of the Duchess of Buck ingh im," which was drunk with great enthusiasm. " Sir R. Gunning and the Northamptonshire farmers" was next proposed, and warmly received. Sir R. GUNNING returned thanks. Mr. HUTTON congratulated the agricultural interest on the change in the Ministry—(cheers)—but he could not fora.et that the person at the head of that Ministry, by al tering the nature of the currency, had depressed, in the most grievous way, the agricultural interests.--(Hear.) He had heard Sir Robert Peel's father say, that he had a son of whose talents he was proud, but that he would not give up to that son's theoretical ideas his own English and solid motions respecting the currency question. He should have been happy if the son had followed the dictates of the father, and had tried to relieve the distresses of the agricul tural portion of the country by means different from those which he had adopted.—(Loud cheers.) He heartily con ',warred in the repeal of the Malt-tax. Mr. ROLFE proposed " The health of Mr. D'lsraeli," which was drunk with loud cheers. Mr. D'IsRAELI (the younger), rose to return thanks, and said that a few days ago he had hoped for extensive relief from the present Administration, but his hopes were greatly abated when he saw that a distinguished individual there present—an individual remarkable for his honour, talent, and devotion to the country—he meant their Noble Representative —w as not taking the place every one expected he would take in the councils of his Sovereign. On that account alone he, for one, fal tered in his confidence in the present Administration. The Noble Marquis, in his speech that evening, had delicately avoided the subject—(hear, hear)—but he thought that the Noble Marquis should have al luded to it, especially when a gentleman respected by the agriculturists, in the same manner as the Noble Marquis, was called to the King's Councils—he meant, of course, Sir Edward Knatchbull. Ought it be said that thei e was any split in their ranks, as it surely would be said, when the country saw that Sir Edward Knatchbull was called to the Councils of the Sovereign, and the Mar quis of Chandos excluded from them ? He would be more explicit, and say that he was glad to see the Cabinet was not as yet formed, and he hoped that the delay was in ex pectation of the results of this great Aylesbury meeting.— (Loud cheers.) The best mode of obtaining relief for the agriculturists was by petitioning for a repeal of the Malt Tax—not for a repeal of the half of it.—(Cheers.) In the next Parliament he thought they would be better repre sented ;—the present Parliament scarcely now existed, and in speaking of it he was much afraid of committing a breach of privilege.—(Laughter.) The only comparison that he could make respecting it was to liken it to the Praise-God- Barebones' Parliament, which it equalled in its extreme of servility and its extreme of jobbing.—(Laughter, and im mense cheering.) The next Parliament he trusted, if it consented one night to repeal the malt-tax, would not the next night rescind its previous vote.—(Cheers.) The NOBLE CHAIRMAN then proposed, after passing a high eulogium upon them, "The Yeomanry of the Country." The Marquis of CHANDOS returned thanks in the name of the officers and men. The Noble Duke then retired amidst loud cheering, ex claiming emphatically, as he quitted the platform, "My brother farmers, God Mess you all." The HIGH SHERIFF was then called to the chair, and, af ter a few toasts of local importance, the company separated. CANTON. Extract of a letter from a passenger in the American ship Coliseum, Captain Stoddart, dated Canton, June 25, 1834 : " On Friday the 6th of June, at five in the morting, we made Java Head, and had land at only half a mile on one side ; and about a mile on the other, so that as we ran along we had a fine view of it and its productions. It seems a most beautiful country, tha whole of it being overgrown with cocoa-nut, orange, and other fine fruit trees. There are no inhabitants on that end of Java or the contiguous islands. The prospect of this delightful scenery is termi nated by some very high mountains at a great distance. At ten o'clock in the evening we got as far as Anger Point, where we anchored till the following morning. As soon as it was daylight we got under way, and soon had a swarm of Malays about us. It is here that ves sels get a supply of fresh provisions, fruit, and vege tables, so delectable after a long voyage. Every article they brought seemed as cheap as dirt itself ; for in stance, fine young fowls, at the rate of Isd. a dozen, of which we bought a good stock ; eggs, a hundred for about os. ; a fine turtle for half a dollar, and the same for about a bushel of oranges ; sugar a penny a pound ; and, in short, everything else they had at equally moderate prices. The people are short, and well made, and seem pretty civilized. They are fond of having a bit of European clothing about them, such as a sailor's coat or half-worn-out jacket or tattered pair of trousers or old woollen shirt—for any of which they will give a high price, either in money or in whatever they have to barter with. Some of them, who appear to be a kind of master, have plenty of money, and they all show the greatest inclination to trade. But the things they are the most passionately eager to obtain, are opium, gunpowder, and arms, for which they will give any thing ; or for a clasp knife, or old iron tool, or even a bit of iron hoop. This shows how badly the Dutch have ma naged their commerce in this part of the world, not to have been carrying on a great trade with these people, and in which the English have not been much, if any better. But now, with the trade thrown open, things will be very different in all those islands, as well as in this empire, where they say, all the northern parts especially, are most anxious and determined to trade, whether their Government like it or not, and Lord Napier is just the man to manage the business well. We were obliged to keep a good look-out against the pirates, who have lately taken many small vessels, of course small ones and de fenceless. They dart out suddenly from behind points of land, especially in calm weather, and attack by boarding. I have been fagging very hard at my Chinese all the voy age, and have succeeded in acquiring an easy and familiar sight of the character, and a facility of writing it. The great difficulty is at the beginning. If Mr. Morrison or Mr. Gutzlaff should be engaged in the Government service by Lord Napier, I shall have a good chance of becoming perfect in the language soon, which will be of great use fulness and importance to me. I wish I had brought out some opium, as any that I could not have sold to the Malays would have done well here, where it is immensely dearer than in England. I saw an opium smuggling vessel, with 70 men, capsized yesterday, in a squall, and all lost. In my next I hope to be able to tell you some useful news about trade, &c.--I remain, yours truly. " Our cargo, which consists principally of woollens, and iron and steel in bar, it is expected to realize a great profit." The new novel entitled " The Princess," by the popular author of " O'Donnell," is rich in humour, and in scenes which will be peculiarly welcome at this season of the year, and will beguile the politician from the annoyance of his wearisome pursuits, seeing that they excite in no small degree the risible faculties. Her Irish characters are full of fun, and in their native drollery, exhibited no less in their actions than in their epistles to their friends at home, are as irresistible as Mrs. Malaprop, Mrs. Tabitha Bramble, and Mrs. Honour, that glorious triumvirate bequeathed to us by Sheridan, Smol lett, and Fielding. In the novel of " The Princess" we have some sketches that will endure even with these ; we allude to Larry Fegan, that matchless Irish valet, Sir Ignatius and Lady IX.Therty, and the pompous Doctor De Burgo.

On opening a gallery between two levels, some miners found the body of a young man in a spot 150 feet deep, which had not been vi sited in the memory of man. The weak solution of sulphuric acid in water, with the alkalies which had formed there, had petrified the corpse without at all robbing it of its youthful appearance. So unusual a sight collected the whole neigh bourhood together. An old woman soon came up, and burst into tears upon recognizing the features of her betrothed bridegroom, who had disappeared 50 years ago, but what had become of him was never known. The interval that had elapsed had wrinkled and furrowed the old dame's face, whilst the bridegroom, thus disentombed from his grave, appeared in all the fresh lineaments of youth. The body was exposed for several days, and at last interred with much ceremony ; the funeral procession being accompanied by the whole body of miners. of the aoiv( r- , Alt°' 137' of '. . 1301- Deri`" rol 36 i "l a rric , : , AO' ter °f goy. ,e 1 raja h , 51)1011 rife (1 , ,aitoot „aro' JO”' ~i
