GERMAN PAPERS. DitiSDEl4;' OCT. 14.—The accounts of the result of the Leipsig Michaelmas Fair are encouraging for the Saxon manufacturers. Every where favourable prospects are opened for our little kingdom of Saxony. The power looms are becoming more numerous, by the exertions of the skilful machinists at Chemnitz and Plauen. Not a loom— not a hand is idle. In several manufactories which can scarcely execute all the orders they receive, the wages of the workmen are increased. The Erzgebirge and Voigiland, resemble more than ever an industrious hive The Saxon go vernment enforces with great strictness the custom-house regulations on the Bohemian frontier, without minding the outcries of the inhabitants of the frontier and the smugglers. It seems to be expected that this strictness will at length open the eyes of the Austrian Government, and induce it to delay no longer promoting its own interest by the intro duction of more moderate duties, and by conventions with Bavaria and Saxony. On the other hand, the clearest in dications were observed at this fair, of the vast extent of the contraband trade on the Prussian Harz. And yet Prussia has placed on that frontier all the custom-house of ficers formerly stationed on the frontier next Saxony. VIENNA, OCT. 21.—Five per Cent.

HEINE, BROTHERS, Contractors, beg to inform the Public, that it would now be too late for ordering Tickets of the Sixty-fourth Great Lottery, and that Orders can be given for the succeeding SIXTY-FIFTH LOTTERY. In former Lot teries they have received several applications for TICKETS OF A NUMBER ANSWERING TO THE NUMBER OF BANK NOTES REMITTED. It is of course impossible to attend to such requests, if the orders are not given BEFORE THE COM MENCEMENT OF SALE. They therefore now beg to inform the Public, that the Tickets of the Sixty-fifth Hamburg Great Lottery will begin selling on the 26th of NEXT MONTH, and all Orders for Tickets OF THE SAME NUMBER AS THE BANK NOTE SENT WITH THE ORDER, must reach them before that day, and Bank Notes, to answer that purpose, must not bear a higher Number than 10,000. Those remitting a Ten-pound Note, will receive an Order for the Balanee and a full Share, together with the Ticket. Should the desired Number be already disposed of, the Bank Note will be returned by the First Mail. Orders of this description must be directed without delay to HEINE, BROTHERS, CONTRACTORS, HAMBURG. LONDON, SATURDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 1, 1834. We insert in this day's Sun, from a Morning Con temporary, the concluding report of the proceedings that took place at the dinner given to Lord DURHAM at Glasgow. There is little to comment on in these, with the exception of a speech delivered by Mr. J. DAVIDSON, who, in alluding to the great measure of negro emancipation, which Ministers, to their im mortal honour be it said, carried the Session before last, related the following interesting anecdote : " How, gentlemen, were these ignorant and dangerous people, so unfit for freedom, employed upon the evening of the 31st of July last, waiting for the morning light which was to shine upon the liberty of 800,000 of the negro race ?—(Cheers.) Doubtless they were assembled in bands of daring and ferocious conspirators, lying in wait like the crouch ing tiger, ready for the fatal spring, and determined to take a long and deep revenge for their many wrongs. Learn the truth, gentlemen : these people, not ripe for liberty, and said by some to be so viciously:disposed, were assembled, I have been informed by an ntelligent friend, in thousands inside and outside of the 'Wesleyan chapels, waiting to usher in the era of their freedom with the voice of prayer and of thanksgiving to that great Being whom they thus beautifully recognized as the author of this the latest and the best of their social bless ings." In the course of his observations, Mr.DAVIDSON touched very sensibly and gracefully on the strong claims that the present administration has on the gratitude of the country—a sentiment which found a welcome response in the hearts of all who beard him. Indeed Lord DURHAM is but the advanced guard, as it were, of the Ministerial phalanx ; he is engaged in the same great cause with them, the purification of all acknow ledged abuses, and has the same persevering, infuriate enemies to contend against. As for his present quarrel with Lord BROUGHAM, we cannot believe for an instant that it will be a lasting one—though the Tories we know are chuckling at the idea that it will be other wise—for it seems to have originated wholly in a slight misunderstanding, which a few frank words of expla nation from either one or the other, cannot fail instantly to remove. The French Papers of Thursday have been re ceived, and we perceive by their contents that the resignation of Marshal GERARD, with rumours of who shall be his successor, form the topics of their remarks. The Moniteur contains two Royal Ordinances— one accepting the resignati o n of GERARD, and the , other appointing Admiral de RIGNY to the charge of the War Department in the interim. A telegrapttic despatch from Bayonne was received on Wednesday, announcing that General MINA was in that town on the 27th, his 'health appearing to be completely re-established. A deputation of five Arragonese came to announce to him that 5,000 Urban militiamen, armed and equipped, were ready to place themselves under his orders. Elisondo, which has been relieved from its blockade, is now oc cupied by a garrison of 5,000 men. There is no other news from Spain of any interest that can be depended on. _ FRENCH FUNDS.—PARIS, OCT. 30. Five per Cents., 106 f. sc. 106 f. 1061. 10c. Four per Cents., 92f. 60c.

As the Act of Parliament for the establishment of the Central Criminal Court comes into operation this day, and as the Court itself will be opened for the commencing of its judicial functions, it is impor tant that the country should be made acquainted with its formation, and the extent and nature of its jurisdiction. That the establishment of such a Court must benefit the country, may be asserted by any person who has paid the least attention to the wild and inconsistent vagaries of the Middlesex Magistrates, in their Sessional meetings at Clerkenwell. Mortifying as is the confession, we must admit that we do not comprehend how the judgment seat could be more abused; than it has been hitherto by this worship ful body ; and therefore we would hail the present di minution of their power, were we less certain of the benefit that will arise from it. The constitution of the Court is made known in the first clause of the Act as follows : Whereas it is expedient, for the more effective and uni form administration of justice in criminal cases, that offences committed in the metropolis and certain parts adjoining thereto, should be tried by justices and judges of oyer and terminer and gaol delivery in the city of London. Be it therefore enacted, &c. that the Lord Mayor for the time being of .the city of London, the Lord Chancellor or Lord Keeper of the Great Seal, and all the judges for the time being of his .Majesty's Courts of King's Bench, Common Pleas, and Exchequer, the Chief Judge and the two other Judges in Bankruptcy, the Judge of the Admiralty, the Dean of the Arches, the Aldermen of the City of London, the Re corder, the Common- Sergeant, the Judges of the Sheriffs' Court of the City of London, for the time being, and any person or persons who hath or shall have been Lord Chancel lor, Lord Keeper, or a Judge of any of his Majesty's superior Courts of Westminster, together with such others as his Ma jesty, his heirs and successors, shall from time to time name and appoint by any general commission, as hereinafter stated, shall be and be taken to be the Judges of a Court to be called the " Central Criminal Court," to which his Majesty, and his heirs and successors, may direct his general commission as hereinafter mentioned ; and which Court shall have jurisdiction to hear, try, and determine all offences committed or alleged to be committed as hereinafter specified." So much for the constitution of the Court with which it is impossible for the most captious to find fault. The next important points are the extent and nature of its jurisdiction. These are comprised in the second clause, which runs thus : " 2. And be it further enacted, that it shall be lawful for his Majesty, his heirs and successors, from time to time to com mand and cause to be issued commissions of oyer and terminer to inquire of, hear, and determine all treasons, murders, felo nies, and misdemeanours committed within the City of Lon don and county of Middlesex, and those parts of the counties of Essex, Kent, and Surrey, within the parishes of Barking, East Ham, West Ham, Little Ilford, Low Layton, Wal thamstow, Wanstead St. Mary, Woodford, and Chingford, in the county of Essex ; Charlton, Lee, Lewisham, Greenwich, Woolwich, Eltharn, Plumstead, St. Nicholas, Deptford, that part of St. Paul, Deptford, which is within the said county of Kent, the liberty of Kidbrook, and the hamlet of Mottingham in the county of Kent ; and the borough of Southwark, the parishes of Battersea, Bermond sey, Camberwell, Christchurch, Clapham, Lambeth, St. Mary Newington, Rotherhithe, Streatham, Barnes, Putney ; that part of St. Paul, Deptford, which is within the said county of Surrey, Tooting Graveney, Wandsworth, Merton, Mortlake, Kew, Richmond, Wimbledon, the Clink Liberty, and the district of Lambeth Palace, in the County of Sur rey ; and also commissions of gaol delivery to deliver his Majesty's gaol of Newgate of the prisoners therein charged with any of the offences aforesaid, committed within the limits aforesaid ; and it shall be lawful for the justices and judges of the Central Criminal Court aforesaid, or any two or more of them, to inquire of, hear, determine, and adjudge, all such treasons, murders, felonies, and misdemeanours, and all treasons, murders, felonies, and mis demeanours which might be inquired of, heard, and deter mined under any commission of oyer and terminer for the city of London or county of Middlesex, or commission of gaol de livery to deliver the gaol of Newgate, or which, in case the parts of the counties of Essex, Kent, and Surrey respectively comprised within the limits aforesaid had been counties of themselves, might have been inquired of, heard, and deter mined under commissions of oyer and terminer and gaol de livery for such counties, and to deliver the said gaol of New gate at such times and places in the said city, or the suburbs thereof, as by the said commissions shall be appointed, or as the said justices and judges by virtue and pursuance thereof, or any two or more of them, shall appoint, and to award and issue all precepts and process, and use and exercise all powers and authorities belonging to justices of oyer and terminer and gaol delivery; provided always, that such Court shall have power and jurisdiction to proceed on every such commission so issued as aforesaid, and act under such commission until a new commission shall be issued." The next inquiry is the number of times the Court will sit annually. Previous to the passing of this Act, the Criminal Court of Old Bailey sat eight times every year. The new Court is to sit twelve times, and oftener should there be business to be done. We give the clause in the Act which regulates the sitting : " 15. And be it further enacted, that the said justices and judges of oyer and terminer and gaol delivery, to be appointed under the authority of this act, or any two or more of them, shall hold a session for the said city of London and county of Middlesex, and the parts of the counties of Essex, Kent, and Surrey hereinbefore mentioned, in the said city o f London or suburbs thereof, at least 12 times in each and every year (and oftener if need be), such times to be fixed by general orders of the said court, which any eight or more of the said judges of his Majesty's Courts of Westminster are hereby empowered to make from time to time." Among the many obvious advantages which the public will derive from this Act, we must not omit the facility which will be afforded for the detection and prosecution of criminals. It will at once sweep away the artificial impediments which the conflicting prerogative of petty tribunals raised in the way of justice. Both sides of the River will be all one for the thief, the pick-pocket, and the house-breaker, whereas formerly every borough was a little kingdom in itself, at the boundaries of which the officer of justice was obliged to halt powerless as an infant. Another important part will be, that criminal prosecutions will imme diately follow the capture of the offenders, which will prevent the innocent from suffering from unjust con finement, and the guilty from the endurance of a double penalty. The expense of prosecutions will likewise be diminished ; but we cannot enter fully into the subject to-day. We have not space for another line. We at once perceive the grossness of the errors into which France has fallen, in dividing her kingdom into four districts, and fixing a price in each, below which grain shall not be permitted to pass from any one dis trict to another, until the price shall exceed the spe cified amount in the district then only allowed to re ceive it. We readily perceive that it would be as absurd to fix one price in Scotland and another in Ire-. land, a third in the North of England, and a fourth in the South, and prevent any of these ports of the United Kingdom from receiving grain, the one from any of the others, until the price exceeded the amount so fixed. But we do not choose to perceive that the mistake which we have committed in fixing a price in the United Kingdom, below which foreign grain shall not be ad mitted, is• precisely the same in principle, and has a similar effect in operation, differing only in degree. The French also have fallen into the same mistake with ourselves, in fixing an importation price from foreign countries, and imposing a duty upon importation. But France has been much more moderate than we have in the amount of the price fixed, and in the amount of the duty imposed. Importation is restrained in France by duties in the first district, when wheat in its market is below 24 francs per hectolitre; in the second district, when it is below 22 ; in the third, when below 20 ; and in the fourth, when below 18. The mean of all these prices is 21 ft:Ales, which is equal to 48s. Bd. the imperial quarter. At the prices of 26, 24, 22, and 20 francs per hectolitre, in the different districts, the duty is merely nominal, namely 25 cents per hecto litre, or 7d. per imperial quarter. The duty which is permanent at or above those prices, varies when they fall, rising one franc for every franc the price per hecto litre (25.4 d. per imperial quarter) falls below 26,24, 22, and 20 francs per hectolitre as the case may be, until the price falls below 24, 22, 20, and 18 francs per hectolitre, when the duty advances at the rate of a franc and a half for each franc of fall. The agricul ture of France is suffering not less severely than our own by the operation of this restraining law. But the operation of our corn laws demands a separate consi deration, which we intend it shall receive. Our pre sent purpose is to show, that no branch of industry prospers by prohibitions of import, or by heavy duties upon import, nor is the industry or the revenue of the country thereby increased. On the contrary, its industry is repressed and limited, and, by necessary consequence, so is its public revenue; whereas, by light duties upon importation, home industry will be increased, and, with it, the public as well as private income ; and further, that from properly apportioned duties of customs, the greatest part of our public reve nue may be derived. The manufacture which has flourished the most in this country is the cotton manufacture, and though the duty upon the importation of cotton fabrics is only 101. per cwt., while upon those of silk it is 301. per cwt., 201. per cwt. upon woollens, and 401. per cwt. upon linens. But though the cotton manufacture has flourished the most with the smallest duty upon the import.of foreign fabrics, yet it is now suffering from a duty of 2s. 11d. per cwt. upon the importation of cotton wool, while upon the importation of flax the duty paid is only hl. per cwt. ; and upon sheep's wool id. is levied upon every pound imported less in value than ls. per pound, and ld. if above ls. the pound, which duty of Id. is also levied upon every pound of raw silk imported. The duty upon the importation of flax cannot well be lower, but when we levy so low a duty upon the importa tion of flax, how happens it that we levy so much heavier duties upon cotton-wool and raw-silk, both of which are raw materials that we cannot raise at home ? There is, indeed, the mistaken notion that we encourage our own growth of sheep's wool by the heavy duty we levy upon foreign wool ; but this does not remove its con sequence upon the woollen manufacture, even if it did not prevent, as it certainly does prevent, more attention from being bestowed upon the quality of the wool grown at home, and, by necessary consequence, to lessen the value of the article. But to return to prohibition and high import duties. Our silk manu facture neither improved nor increased with prohibi. tions. It does not increase with high import duties as the cotton manufacture does with low, nor has woollen manufacture with higher import duties increased as the cotton has done. The linen manufacture has in creased lately, not by reason of the heavy impost duty upon linen fabrics, but by reason of improvements in machinery, whereby the coarsest as well as the finest parts of the fibre of flax are spun into yarn. We have no sufficient data by which we can estimate the quan tity of any of these manufactures consumed at home ; but if the extent of them be estimated by the quantity exported, cotton greatly preponderates, as appears from the finance accounts of the last year, in which their official values are stated as follows : Cotton Manufactures .Z 40,058,153 Linen Manufactures.... .............. 3,493,642 Silk Manufactures 694,773 Woollen Manufactures 7,777,951 The following is the official value of each of these manufactures exported in 1814 : Cotton Manufactures Linen Silk Woollen 16,535,528 1,524,457 173,343 4,931,667 It thus appears that the linen and silk manufactures have increased as well as the cotton, in a much greater degree than the woollen, since 1814. In relative increase the linen approaches the cotton, and the silk exceeds both. But it is by reason of the improvement in the machinery by which flax is spun into yarn, that the linen manufacture has increased so much since 1814, and it is since that year that the absolute prohibition of the import of silk has been repealed. As this manufacture has increased from the removal of abso lute prohibition, it is plain that the manufacture has not suffered ; on the contrary, it has improved, as well as increased, from the competition with foreigners, to which it has since been exposed. But it suffers from a competition with smugglers, or those con cerned with smugglers, through the heavy duties imposed upon importation, whereby the best efforts of those engaged in the home manufacture are deranged and repressed, while the woollen manufacture suffers from a duty upon the export of wool, which tends to diminish the quality of home wool, and by a duty on the import of the finer sorts offoreign wool, which are absolutely neces sary for the finest description of cloth, the quantity of which exported is thereby limited. Home manufacturers cannot sustain a competition with each other unless they are upon equal terms, which they cannot be when duties are evaded, as high duties always arc, and the higher they are, the greater the temptation to evade them, and the greater the derangement to the home manufacture when they are evaded ; nor can home manufacturers sustain a competition with foreign manu facturers in any branch of industry, unless they are secured against any advantage which foreigners can have over them, excepting what arises from skill, and the comparative excellence and cheapness of the ma nufacture. There are local advantages of climate and raw manufacture, and otherwise, which cannot be taken from any people, and it is idle and useless to make the attempt. The people who enjoy local advan tages, however, do not always make the best use of them ; but the competition of knowledge, skill, and industry are open to all, and never fail to reward those who possess these qualities. For the raw material of the manufacture which, of all others among us, has become the most extensive, namely, the cotton manufacture, we depend upon other countries, as we also do for the raw material of our silk, and the bulk of our linen manufacture. Yet, with these disadvan tages, we have beaten all the world in the cotton and linen manufacture ; and if our silk manufacturers could be prevailed upon to consent that the import duties on silk fabrics shall be as low as those on cotton, we should soon beat all the world in silk fabrics also. RDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 183 COURT OF EXCHEQUER-(THIS DAY.) The LORD CHIEF BARON is sitting in this Court, with a Special Jury, in order to try the cause of De Beauvoir v. Rhodes, which has afforded employment to the legal gentlemen for many years. It comes now before his Lordship for the trial of several issues directed by the House of Lords, and this is the first cause in which that noble body have ever taken such a course. On the pleadings being opened by Mr. FOLLETT, one of the issues seemed to his Lordship to be very loosely worded, so much so as to leave him in doubt of its real meaning. Sir J. SCARLETT, for the plaintiff, said the only way in which he could account for the manner in which the issues came before them was the fact, which they had from high authority, that the diffusion of useful knowledge had not yet reached that noble body. On the same autho rity, however, they had it, that the tide was rising ; and therefore they were led to hope, that when their Lordships had read and digested a few more " Penny Magazines," they would be so far enlightened in this as well as in other things, that if they should follow that, the first precedent, of sending cases to a jury, they would be enabled so to frame their issues as to be intelligible. He then went on toistate the case, which occupied him several hours. Though it has been on for two days the plaintiff's case was not nearly got through, and it is expected to occupy his Lordship until Monday evening. The question in the case is whether the defendant did or did not obtain too great a preference in getting a lease of the Batham estate, at Hackney, in the year 1821, from the late Mr. De Beauvoir, when in a weak state of intellect.

We should be glad to see a collection made, in one graceful little volume, of the best passages in this versatile series of papers : we are quite convinced it would be popular ; for where else could one meet with a work bringing together so Many poetic, phi losophical, and descriptive beauties, to say nothing of the humourous touches, which are as racy as they are rare ? If not the profoundest—and even on this point we have our doubts--Professor Wilson , is un questionably the most accomplished writer of the age. He comes before us armed at all points, challenging our admiration, not less by the exquisite 'refinement of his taste, than the variety of his erudition, and the uncommon force and vitality of his imagination. Even as a satirist, he holds a high rank in the republic of letters—so strangely parodoxical is his mind, which at one moment can sit " in the seat of the scorner," and at another, among the most reverential and undoubting worshipper of genius ! So long as he writes with the freshness and enthusiasm that he now does, blending the simplicity and confidingness of the boy, with the experience and sagacity of the man —may he write on for ever ! He cannot possibly weary us, for the in stant lie has familiarized us with one of his Protean shapes, he has nothing to do, but drop it for a season, and take up another. In the present number we have him in the two-fold capacity of a convivial and sprightly table-talker, and a subtle and imaginative critic. In both he shows to equal advantage, his notice of " Spen cer's Fairy Queen," being quite as admirable in its way, as his desultory chit-chat with the Shep herd in the " Noctes." Yet, Hogg, we have heard, professes to be quite indignant at being cari catured in these delightful papers. If this be really the case, the man must be a more enormous donkey than ever brayed in Brobdignag, for great as may be the merits of his " Queen's Wake," he may rely on it that it is as the hero of the " Noctes Ambrosiance," he will be best known to posterity ! " Ochlen schlaeger's Aladdin," to those who are fond of the 'German drama, will teem with interest ; it is a very acute analysis of what seems to us a very indifferent . , play ; though on this subject we are not impartial critics, having never yet read any thing in German dramatic literature that we could endure, with the exception of " Goethe's Faust," and Schiller's two maleficent plays of the Robbers and Wallenstein. Evei German fiction strikes us as being prodigal only in absurdities ; witness Hoffman's crude, drunken, un imaginative hobgoblinisms, which produced such an effect a few years since on the minds of his country men. The only German romance in which we could ever detect the slightest workings of nature, is the Baron de lc Motte's " Undine," which is full of grace, tenderness, and fancy, and in which, though the per sonages are for the most part of a supernatural order, probability is kept as much in view as it is in Shak speare's " Tempest." " Nights at Mess" is whim sical, but treads close on the verge of the impossible. In the " Water-drinker in the Pyrenees,"—how we pity an unhappy water-drinker at that chilly elevation ! —there are two or three vigorous descriptions ; and in the " Cruise of the Midge" one picturesque sketch, which we subjoin ; just premising that the subject has been already well handled, and in a somewhat similar spirit, by the author of " Tom Cringle's Log." " We were now rapidly approaching the burning vessel, which was still becalmed, and lying motionless apparently on the silver swell, veiled from our sight by the pillar of cloud that brooded over it, which continued to ascend straight up into the clear heaven like some tall tree, the top of it spreading and feathering out like the drooping leaves of some noble palm ; but the moment the breeze struck the column of smoke it blew off, as if the tree had been levelled before the blast, and streamed away down to leeward in a long whirling trail, disclosing to our view the black hull and lower masts of a large vessel, with the bright red flames gushing out from her hatchways, and flickering up the masts, as if the fire licked them. " When the smoke blew off, we saw a felucca, hitherto concealed by it, to leeward of the vessel, apparently edging away from her, with a boat towing astern, an unusual thing at sea. Presently, she hoisted it up, and hauled her wind after us, as if she had taken time to reconnoitre, and now had made up her mind to overhaul us. As the wreck was by this time burned to the water's edge, it was clear we could render no assistance ; we therefore made all the sail we could, and stood once more on our course. Just as we had hauled by the wind, and were leaving the wreck, the after-part of the quarterdeck of the burning vessel lifted, as it were, but by no means sud denly, although the stump of the mizen-mast flew up into the sky like a javelin launched into the air by the hands of a giant, and clouds of white smoke burst from the vessel, in the midst of which a sudden spout of red flame shot up, but there was scarcely any report, at least what sound we heard was more a deadened thud than a sharp explosion. The vessel immedi ately fell over on her sid e , an d van i s h e d su dd en l y b e l ow t h e green waves, in a cloud of white steam." FRASER'S MAGAZINE. Fraser. Regent-street. Welcome, Regina! Despite of Tory politics, and a cross-grained disposition, which manifests itself in rapping our old friends the Whigs over the knuckles, and dealing out hard hits at other of our acquaint ances, we are always very glad to see you. To be can did—when we grow tired of politics and political par tizanship—which, sooth to say, happens more fre quently than we care to tell the public—we are de lighted to sit down and enjoy a hearty laugh with Oliver Yorke, Morgan Rattler, the Ettrick Shep herd, and that wittiest of Irish ecclesiastics—and there are many very odd and whimsical, if not very witty fellows among the canonical soul-savers of the " Green Isle"—ozild Father Prout. The present number is, however, heavier than usual—perhaps weighed down a little by a full length portrait of James Smith, Esq., brother of Horace, and co-assistant with him in the production of the " Rejected Addresses," added to which is a chair, a cushion, a crutch—all euphonious appendages, and, to do justice to the artist, having not the slightest appearance of ballast about them. Still, there is dead weight somewhere, for, as we said before, the present number is rather heavy, and, let us add, rather severe in its strictures in quarters where they may operate in a way which the publisher never intended. Of Morgan Rattler's attack on Moore we say nothing, because Moore is above—far above, the reach of any shaft that may be aimed at him, whe ther in jest or earnest. To quarrel with so much ex cellence is excusable, because, without injury being done to the object of censure, the world is amused by the attempt at a censorship so self-evi dently humourous, when not ridiculous. But of the " race who write," how fow have gained a footing on the base of the rock, on the summit of which Moore reposes in safety and in sunshine ? And of those who are pouting, and struggling towards the same point, though self-assured they shall never reach it, there' are hundreds—useful in their way—whom a random nut-shell flung in jest by old Oliver Yorke, as he sit's in his easy chair after dinner enjoying his wine, and maybe a pipe with father Prout,—would utterly exterminate. We would rather magnify than diminish our view of little things ; nor could all the naturalists in the world persuade us to employ ourselves in im paling blue-bottles, however much two of our senses, or rather the organs of them, might have previously suffered from their buzzing. But in all this we are forgetting to speak of the articles one by one, after our usual fashion. " The two Articles on the Annuals" is a clever paper, and introduced after the right fashion. We read it not without enjoying a hearty laugh, which we could not help indulging, though at the expense of some of our Contemporaries. The joke is 'sometimes c arried too far,,--but The pre of that we have spoken already, ••.. 41 A L 'WM .

" The author tells us," observes the Quarterly Re view, "that he left England before he had attained his sixteenth year, with an ardent desire to see and note the manners of foreign countries. At that early age he began the materials from which these volumes are composed. His drawings and letters occupied fifty-two thousand pages, contained in one hundred and fifty folio volumes, the work of his own hands. They formed the principal recreation of his life. The pursuit beguiled the monotony of four India voyages, and cheered his residence in the interior of that country, softened the long pe riod of his absence, and afterwards mitigated the rigour of captivity, and the pressure of domestic sorrow." The appear ance of so magnificent a work, in the present compressed form, will be hailed as a welcome accession to the literary world; , for there is scarcely a subject connected with our Indian em pire which escapes the author's notice. It is to be edited by Mr. Forbes's daughter, the Countess de Montalembert. The late Thomas Telford, Esq., has left to the Ministers of Langholm and Westerkirk 1,0001. sterling each, in trust for the libraries of the above town and parish, the in terest of which is to be annually expended in purchasing books. This celebrated engineer was a native of Westerkirk, not of Langholm, as erroneously stated in the public prints.-- Dunfries Courier.

FIRE IN THE COLLEGE OF SURGEONS.—Yes terday, this new and splendid building, so ornamental to our city, was in great danger of being consigned to destruction by fire, and from a cause strikingly analogous with that, which, it As conjectured, led to the late disastrous occurrences in the Houses of Lords and Commons. About two o'clock in the afternoon the fears of the inmates of the College were aroused by a strong smell of burning wood, and a strict search was im mediately commenced for the purpose of discovering the lo cality of the fire. After some scrutiny it was found that the joists which support the floor of the Examination Hall, which is immediately over the Museum, were on fire, and from the circumstance of their being in immediate contact with the flue of a stove employed to heat these rooms, the cause was at once perceived and removed. Messengers were immediately dispatched to the insurance offices with the intelligence, and several engines were promptly in attendance, but the fire was happily arrested without their assistance, by the inmates and servants of the college. It is probably unnecessary to add that the danger was occasioned by the overheating of the stove. It was indeed a fortunate circumstance that the fire broke out at the particular time it did, for had it occurred during the night, it is mare than probable that this extensive and classical edifice would have been utterly ruined. —Dublin Freeman's Journal. sent number of the " P rout Papers" is as full e fri . ti cl ; and sterling wit and gO th s humour, Irish impude nce, as those which have alread y appeared , wil ile „ in Ettrick Shepherd scatters a " Love's Legag',,, charming verse, over full four pages and a "bittoc. e There is as himself would express the fractional part of a l*; remaining over and above the numeral here so t ' m otile ° an important paper, entitled " Metropolitan Ilif a very good, and at the present ~,,, Supply," and a still b etter one c alled " S p anish gends," from which , if we could, w e shouldcl e obe ordlalks, to make an extract.
