No Tender will be received after One o'clock an on -idy of treaty, nor any noticed unless the party attends, or "Oetit for him duly authorized in writing tornverY. Tencler must be delivered at the above Office, and be ac ct st_anired by a Letter addressed to the Secretary of the Admiralty, to beme setplace, and signed by two responsible persons, 25l n ce, t ,le bound with the person tendering, in the sum s of 25 peg on the value for the due performance of the Contract. ----- Le n he %you I one of the I that Inorn' sovereign for , who was s sleeping d ;h-street, use, until 1 . 11 1: tter , he saw tm the ant ,ne work, and we have Collected from ferent quarters a few par ticulars which we think cannot fail to prove interesting to the local reader, at least. The importance of this great undertaking is not, however, confined to its loca lity. A work which will connect the Eastern and Western seas, possesses a national and political, as well as a local and commercial interest. The bringing two sides of our island almost within ear-shot of each other (if we may be allowed the phrase) must be an object highly interesting to the statesman, who looks to the rapid transmission of the means of internal defence from one extreme point of the kingdom to another. In a commercial and local point of view, the undertaking is of the very first importance. It will open out new sources of trade, give increased facilities to the employ ment of capital, and a wide field for the encouragement of skill, talent, and labour, of every kind and degree. The managing committee of the Railway (Messrs. B. Thompson, G. Johnson, and N. Wood) visited Carlisle on Tuesday last, for the purpose of inspecting the progress of the work, and of arranging with the Canal Company the point of junction between the Railway and the Canal. Upon the latter point, we understand, they have come to an amicable arrange ment, highly advantageous to both Companies, and to the public at large. The Railway will enter the Canal premises near the present gate in Caldcoats, in front of the Canal warehouses. From this point a branch railway will be carried to the left, behind the new Custom-house, and terminate beyond the present ship-building yard, where it is intended that coals shall be shipped. This will avoid the dust and filth which would necessarily be created by shipping them at the Basin amongst other goods : and we may mention here, that the most sanguine expectations are entertained that very exten sive shipments of coals will be made to Scotland. A considerable quantity is now shipped from Newcastle, for every part of the kingdom ; and it is fully expected by those who have paid attention to the subject, that this trade will be transferred to Carlisle. The ground which extends back from the side of the Canal Basin towards the Infirmary, now used as timber yards, will be levelled with the quay as far as the Canal Company's property extends, thus affording very great facilities to the public, for the reception and transmission of goods either by Railway or Canal. With respect to the state of forwardness of the work we may state that from Wetheral to the Mains the road is now complete, and the workmen have this week commenced to lay the permanent rails. From Gal lows hill to where a bridge will cross the Caldew into Denton Holme, the cutting is proceeding with great rapidity, under the active superintendence of Mr. Gra hamsley, who has contracted for the whole of that part of the line which extends from the Mains to the Canal Basin. The skill which this gentleman has exhibited in cutting the Cowran Hill, gives ample assurance of his ability to complete his present important undertak ing with credit to himself and advantage to the Com pany.

PALL-hIALL AND CORNHILL. BERLIN, SEPT. 29.—Her Majesty the Empress of Russia was present yesterday at the performance of Meyerbeer's Robert the Devil in the Great Opera-house. The house was crowded, the public being eager to welcome her Majesty. The Royal box, in which were the King, with the Empress and the young Grand Duchess, with all the members of the Royal family, attracted the eyes of the public, whose acclamation almost drowned the sounds of the trumpets which saluted her Majesty on her entrance. But little attention was paid to the performance, every act of which it was found necessary to shorten, the public being impatient for the intervals between the acts to renew their salutation to the Royal family. The Empress repeatedly came to the front of the box and most graciously, and with much emotion, acknowledged the cordial welcome given to hbr in her native city. On the 27th, in the forenoon, died at Freyenwalde, the Princess Eliza Radziwill, daughter of her Royal Highness Princess Louisa of Prussia, widow of his Highness Prince Antony Radziwill, late Governor of the Grand Duchy of Posen. " TO ACTING MAGISTRATE OF THE COUNTY OF DEVON, " Sir—As the new act introduced by me for more effectually establishing uniformity of weights and measures is to come into operation, under the direction of the Magistrates, at the next Quarter Sessions, in order that its provisions may be carried fully into effect throughout the kingdom by the Ist of next January, I take the liberty of sending you herewith a sum.: mary of its principal enactments applicable to England and-.

" I have the honour to be, Sir, your most obedient servant, " Castle-hill, Sept. 1834. " EBRINGTON." The act to " amend and render more effectual two acts of the sth and 6th of King George IV., relating to weights and measures," repeals the permission in the former act to use any other weights or measures than those of the impe rial standard, but allows those to be used which have been certified as imperial, though not of the form required by the act ; and it fixes no particular shape for the future. It abolishes, after the Ist of January, 1835, all heaped mea sures, and forbids the use of all weights made of lead or pewter. It directs that Justices of Peace in counties, and Magistrates of towns, at the next October Quarter Set- 1 sions, shall provide the requisite number of standard copies within their respective jurisdictions, and appoint inspectors to compare and stamp all weights and measures in nse therein, and a return of all copies so provided, and of the inspectors appointed, is to be made to the Secretary of State in March, 1836. It fixes the legal stone at 141 b. avoirdu pois, and abolishes the use of all others. It enacts that all articles sold by weight shall be sold by avoirdupois weight, except gold, silver, platina, precious stones, and drugs in retail, which are to be sold by troy weight. The penalty for making or using any unstamped weights or measures after the Ist of January, 1835, is from 20s. to Si. Any two magistrates are empowered to confiscate light weights, and impose a penalty not greater than .5/. on persons owning or using them. A penalty of 501. is imposed for forging the stamp, and 10/. for selling weights so forged. One half of the penalties to go to the informer, and the other half to the expense of keeping up the copies of the standards. Per sons convicted may appeal to the next quarter session. The following is the schedule of fees to be taken by all inspectors of weights and measures : For examining, comparing, and stamping all brass weights within their respective jurisdictions :—For each half-hun dred weight Is. 6d., for each quarter of a hundred weight 9d., for each stone 6d., for each weight under a stone lid. For examining, comparing, and stamping all weights of iron or other material than brass within their respective jurisdictions :—Each half hundred weight 6d., each quarter of a hundred weight 3d., for each stone, and all weights under a stone, 2d.

PETSRSBURGH, SEPT. 24.—0 n the 18th, the same day that the Empress set out for Berlin, the Emperor left the capital on his tour to the interior of the empire. A letter from Tiflis of 21st of August says—" Esrad Pasha, Seraskier of Erzeroum, has made great preparations to chastise the Kurds, one of whose tribes plundered a rich caravan on the way from Constantinople to Persia. He is said to have assembled 25,000. men, which will be joined by 15,000 men under the son of the Pasha of Kars. The governors of the nearest Persian provinces seem to be pre paring to assist him, and are collecting a body'of troops near Khoj. We learn from Tabriz that the Emir Nisam has orders to approach the Turkish frontier with two bat talions, 1,000 cavalry, and six cannon ; one object is said to be to determine some disputed points of the boundary line between the two states. The celebrated traveller, Dr. Siebald, has arrived here, with the view of making his work on Japan circulated in the Russian empire.

NEW EDITION OF GUY'S HISTORICAL QUESTION BOOK, WITH A CHART OF ANCIENT AND MODERN HISTORY. vYr A new and enlarged edition,l2mo., in illustrated with a Chart of the Epochs and leading Events of Ancient History, coloured, price 4s. 6d., neatly bound and lettered, UY'S GENERAL SCHOOL QUESTION J' BOOK ; in which each question, in a regular series, is followed by its appropriate answer, not only in Ancient and Modern History, in which the whole is arranged in chronological order, but also in Biography, Astronomy, Heathen Mythology, Classical Phra seology, and a great and interesting variety of miscellaneous sub jects ; the whole tending to enlarge the boundaries of juvenile knowledge, by increasing its stores ; and thus, by blending such a course of general information with sound classical or liberal learning, to raise a better superstructure of school education. By JOSEPH GUY, Formerly of the Royal Military College, and author of a Chart of General History, Pocket Cyclopmdia, School Geography, Ele ments of Astronomy, British Spelling Book, &e. The public approbation of these historical abstracts having been so unequivocally expressed by the previous demand of three large editions, the author has been induced to spare neither expense nor pains to complete the historical picture ; not only by the introduc tion of a luminous outline, with a chart of epochs, but by the addi tion of eight remaining abstracts, namely, five of the most import ant Italian States, the Empires of the Saracens and the Turks, and, lastly, of the United States of America; forming seventy-five additional pages of letter-press. Some of the leading scholastic characters in the kingdom have been contributary to its success, either by suggesting its order, affording its materials, or by confer ring upon it their testimony of approbation. And perhaps so con centrated and methodical a sketch of history, at once simple, inte resting, and correct, and in size and price so exactly accommodated to the purpose of schools, has not hitherto issued from the British press.

(From the London Gazette.) AL H. F. Mullett, sen , marltet.gardener, Fulham 1 at 1 ACCIDENT ON THE LONDON AND BIRMING HAM RAILROAD, AT CAMDEN TOwN.—yesterday afternoon, between two and three o'clock, an accident occurred to a lad of the name of John Crisp, twelve years of age, son to one of the excavators who is engaged on the London and Birming ham Railway, near Camden Town. It appears that the youth was in the act of unchaining one of the horses which was drawing two large waggons, laden with earth, weighing up wards of three tons. In a moment the youth was thrown across the railroad, when, before it was in the power of any one to stoic, the waggons with their ponderous loads, the iron wheels caught the thigh, knee, and leg between the iron groves, by which means the flesh was torn from the bone, and the bones crushed in so shocking a manner, that the limb only hung by a small piece of flesh. Assistance was imme diately procured, and the sufferer was conveyed to Middlesex Hospital, where amputation of the limbs must immediately be performed. ( Abridged from the Birmingham Journal of Saturday.) (Before R. SPOONER and F. LLOYD, Esqrs. UNSTAMPED NEWSPAPERS.---Messrs. Guest, Jenkinson, Watts, and Davis, newsvenders, who had been convicted last month for selling the Weekly Police Gazett, The Man, and other unstamped newspapers, were brought up for judgment. They had been allowed time to pay the pe nalties, but they did not do so, and Mr. Spurrier, solicitor for the prosecution, now applied for their committal. The first of the defendants called upon was Mr. James Guest ; and, the convictions having been read over, Mr. SPOONER asked him if he was prepared to pay the penalties ?to which he replied that he was not. He then asked him if he wished to say anything as to why he should not be committed for the offence. Mr. Guest replied that he wished to say a few words, and then spoke to the following effect :—He considered he had committed no crime, and he deserved no punishment ; neither was he prepared to say he would not continue to sell the papers in question. When first brought before the ma gistrates he refused promising to discontinue the sale, because he did not intend doing so, and had he promised to do so he would only have been guilty of deception. Lord Brougham was now going about the country telling the people that the duty was to be taken off, and at the same time he (Mr. Guest) was being prosecuted. The day, however, would come when the people would have cheap knowledge ; and if they thought that by carrying on such prosecutions, they could stop the circulation of cheap papers, they would find them selves mistaken. The sale of these papers had already risen one-third in Birmingham since these prosecutions were commenced, and it would continue to increase, for it had done so in every place where the vendors had been prose cuted. Several of the unstamped papers only sold at their commencement 20,000 a week, but since the prosecutions they increased to 80,000. Through the medium of Sun day and other schools, the people could now read, and they must have reading, and cheap, for they could not buy dear reading. As the informer against him had said that he laid the information from pure principle, so he (Mr. Guest) could say he sold the papers from the same prin ciple, and should continue to do so. Mr. Spurrier said this was a curious mode of applying to a court for mitigation of punishment. He sought to have the least punishment which the Magistrates could inflict, and at the same time said he was determined to repeat the offence. Mr. SPOONER said the duty of the Magistrates was only to administer the laws, without objecting to the motives which led to their enactment, neither could they decide in anticipation of changes in them. In this case he con sidered the defendant had committed a crime ; and although his conduct had not been such as to deserve a mitigation, yet the Magistrates should not be influenced in their de cision by his indiscretion. The decision of the Court was that he be imprisoned in the county gaol for six weeks for the first offence, and one week for every other, making in the whole ten weeks. Mr. Jenkieson next appeared before the Magistrates and said he had given up the trade altogether. It had been re ported that for so doing he had been paid by the Govern ment. He took that opportunity of saying it was untrue. Mr. SPOONER said he did not believe it. It was not true. He then asked him if he was prepared to pay the money. Mr. Jenkinson replied that he was not. Mr. SPOONER said he was sorry he could not pay it. His con duct had been different from others, and he did not wish if possible to inflict a penalty. Mr. Jenkinson said he could not pay, and he was ordered to be confined for one week. Mr. Faulkner was then called upon. He said it should be borne in mind that the parties who passed the Act were the nominees of a Tory aristocracy, who had no feelings or sympathy with the people—that it was enacted to hide from public gaze their ruinous system of policy, the baneful effects of which were now being felt by all classes. And who, he would ask, had now instituted these prosecutions ? Why the men who had made the noblest stand against the passing of the law—men who declared that the li berty of England would be at an end the moment such a law was put into operation. Amongst the foremost of those was Lord Brougham. He it was who opposed it before the aristocratic mantle in which he was now en veloped hed suppressed the ebullitions of a noble mind. Lords Grey, Lansdown, Althorp, Denman, and Mr. Thomp son were also of the number who ..opposed the Act but now enforced it. Now, as to its effects upon society, for that after all was the great question, he would ask, was it not education which had placed England one of the foremost in the ranks of civilization ? Ignorance was the greatest enemy to an enlightened government, for it was impossible that any government could carry any measure of utility if the people were ignorant ; for there was a party, a power ful party, who lived and moved and had their being on the present state of things. The speeches of the Lord Chan cellor lately delivered in Scotland, and the articles in the Penny Magazine, clearly proved that the repeal of those taxes on knowledge was at hand. It was certain, unless Lord Brougham intended to go down to posterity covered with infamy and disgrace. If such was the case, why these prosecutions ? Why should that be a crime to-day which would be legal to-morrow? Even in Castlereagh's Go vernment, when Mr. Edmonds was fined 601. for making an imitation of coffee, he had his money refunded to him when the Act was repealed. In this case he appealed with confidence to the decision of Mr. Spooner, who had always been the professed advocate of liberal opinions, the patron of Mechanics' Institutions, and the ardent friend of universal education. It appeared from the return of the Stamp-office that 100,000 unstamped papers have been issued in a month, and those trials'would increase them 25,000, and whatever may be the issue of this day's proceedings, I have no doubt but that a discerning public will appreciate the motives which have induced me to pursue this line of conduct. The defendant was then sentenced to nine week's im prisonment, Mr. Spooner observing that the Magistrates (lid not, by this lenity in these cases, bind themselves (in case of an increase of the sale, and a determination to per sist in the trade) not to inflict the full penalty. If it turned out as the defendant anticipated, the law must be fully en forced. William Guest was then sentenced to six weeks, Watts for seven weeks. In the case of Davis, Mr. Spurrier said he would not call upon the Magistrates to commit him, he having declined the sale. Mr. FRANCIS LLOYD said before the defendants left the office to be removed to prison for the several terms of their confinement, he wished to express his disapprobation upon the defence that had been made. They had appealed to his brother Magistrate and himself to adjudicate, not upon the Act of Parliament, but upon the reported expressions of a Member of the Cabinet respecting the policy of news paper stamp duties. To suppose that magistrates paid any attention to such observations (supposing them to be made) was the height of absurdity. The speeches of the Lord Chancellor in Scotland, upon which the defendants laid so much stress could not, nor should not, influence him. The Minister of to-day might not be the Minister of the open ing of next session of Parliament ; a Minister's opinion, therefore, went for nothing ; if it did, the agitation of a point of law by any Member of Parliament might keep the laws in abeyance, and consequently incapacitate Magistrates from dispensing them. If such was to be the construction of the laws, no men could be placed in a more painful position than Magistrates. In the present prosecutions they had miti gated the penalties to the lowest amount, consistently with their duty. It was a very painful duty, but they had but one course open to them, the defendants were therefore perfectly mistaken in supposing they could act differently. HAMBURG PAPERS. BERLIN, SEPT. 28.—This forenoon there was a grand review of the garrisons of Berlin and Potsdam, in honour of the arrival of her Majesty the Empress of Russia. His Royal Highness Prince Augustus had the misfor tune yesterday to fall from his horse, and break the left shoulder bone and several ribs on the same side. Unless unexpected unfavourable circumstances should occur, there is no reason to doubt that his Royal Highness will perfectly recover from the effects of this accident. STOCKHOEM, SEPT. 23.—The Dagligt Allchanda says, that Captain Lindeberg has received notice from the Go vernor's office, that the sentence of death passed on him will not be carried into execution before the Bth of Novem ber, and that he has accordingly already received visits from a clergyman to prepare him. It is not to be imagined that this notice is anything more than what is usual in the ordinary course of business, for nobody can believe that in this case an execution will really take plabe. SEPT. 26.—Captain Lindeberg has announced from his prison a collection of his works. The number of cases of cholera up to this day have been 7,382 ; recoveries, 2,940 ; deaths, 3,157.

There are very few women who have not been once, in their lives, exposed to an interrogatory, precise, short, and cutting ; one of those questions made with out commiseration by their husbands, the dread of which alone causes a cold shaking fit, and the first point of which strikes the heart like the point of a poignard. From thence the axiom, Every woman lies :—an officious lie, a venial lie, a sublime lie, a horrible lie ; but obliged to lie. This obligation, then, once admitted, is it not essential to lie skilfully ? The women, therefore, in France, are admirable liars ; our manners teach them deceit so well I In short Woman is so ingeniously impatient, so pretty, so graceful, so true in lying, she avows so well its utility to avoid in social life the violent shocks which domestic happiness would not resist, that it is neces sary as the cotton in which they place their pearls. Lying, therefore, becomes the foundation of their lan guage, and truth is nothing more than an exception. They tell us that, as they are virtuous, from caprice, or speculation, according to their dispositions or tem pers, some women laugh in lying, others weep or be come serious ; some are angry. After having begun in life by feigning insensibility for the homage which delighted them the most, they often end by lying to themselves. Who has not admired their appearance of superiority, when they trembled for the mysterious treasures of their loves ? Who has not studied their ease, their facility, their freedom of under standing, under the greatest embarrassments of life ? Then, with them, nothing is borrowed ; deceit flows as the snow falls from the skies. With what art, too, do they discover the truth in others—with what cun ning do they employ the right logic regarding the point in discussion, which always acquires for them some secret of the heart from a man, open enough to proceed with them by interrogation. To question a woman, is it not to give ourselves up to her ? Will she not always learn what we wish to hide from her ? and in conversing with us, will she not conceal what ever she chooses to keep secret ? And yet some men pretend to cope with the women of Paris ; with women who can put themselves above the stabs of a poniard, by saying, You are very inquisitive ; what does it mat ter to you ? Why do you wish to know it ? Ah I you are jealous I and if I did not choose to answer you—ln short, with a woman who possesses a hun dred thousand different ways of saying No, and innu merable variations for saying Yes.—Sketches of Paris, by M. Balzac. The following are the numbers of the county and borough voters for the parishes of Portsmouth and Portsea, from the three registrations since the passing of the Reform Act : County. Borough. Portsea - 1833 716 704 - 1834 766 889 Portsmouth 1832 90 382 - 1833 97 384 - 1834 97 435 (probably the noblest structure of the kind in the north) is now passable and ready for the rails. The immense cutting through the Cowran Hill is rapidly advancing to a close. The workmen have commenced to erect the breasting walls, and there is every appear ance of the work being speedily finished. It was a serious and difficult undertaking, and has been gone through in a most scientific manner, and reflects great credit on Mr. Grahainsley. From the Cowran Hill to Lord Carlisle's Railway at Milton, the work, we understand, is proceeding steadily—though of this part of the line we cannot speak from personal inspection. From Milton to our Canal Basin, a distance of 20 miles, it is fully expected, the Railway will be opened by the latter end of next year. The importance of this to the trade and commerce of Carlisle, as well as to the poor, may be pretty accurately estimated when we state that coals will then be brought into the town at about half their present cost. The price now is from 16s. to 17s. a ton ; when the Railway is opened we shall have the best round coals, for household pur poses, it is calculated, at about 9s. a ton, whilst engine coals will probably not exceed 7s. Along the line we speak of, or in its immediate vi cinity, and to which branch lines can easily be laid, are several very important and valuable stone quar ries —one, in particular, from which Edmond Castle was built, perhaps the most beautiful and valuable building stone in England. At Blenkirisop, there is a quarry, which produces flags as durable as those of Lazonby, but much thinner, and consequently lighter for transportation. The importance of these things to a town so rapidly on the increase as Carlisle, we need not point out. At the east end of the railway there are now nearly 17 miles almost completed, and which will be opened the latter end of this year, or very early in 1835. With respect to the application of steam power upon the railway, our readers are aware that there is a clause in the Act constituting the company, prohibi tory of the use of locomotive engines upon it. We do not pretend to speak from authority, but we have heard in quarters likely to be informed upon the sub ject, that the Directors fully contemplate the use of locomotive engines ; and there can be no doubt but they would easily obtain the sanction of Parliament for that purpose—seeing that the locomotive engines now in use on the Manchester and Liverpool Railway, pos sess few, if any, of the features of horror with which imagination pictured these moving wonders, at the time the Newcastle and Carlisle Railway Act was ob tained. Then it was imagined that death was in their appearance, and destruction in their path, and that they could not move without spreading terror and alarm to all within the breath of their horrid nostrils. Now they have been shorn of nearly all their imagina tive horrors—are so comely to the sight, even when careering along at the rate of 20 or 30 miles an hour, and move with so much steadiness and with so little noise, that even the most timid and nervous lady may venture to trust herself within their power. Should steam power be applied on our Railway—. and from what we have heard we have no doubt but it will—and without it, we feel assured the public can never reap half the advantages it is capable of afford ing—we have heard that the Directors will aim at establishing something like an uniform speed with both goods and passengers —say, about the rate of 12 miles an hour. This, doubtless, would be no less with the view of saving expense, than to avoid that confu sion and waste of power consequent on the adoption of various rates of speed. The spirit of enterprise likely to be created by the opening of the railway is already beginning to mani fest itself in Carlisle. Ground has been purchased and workmen have for some time been employed in digging for a foundation for a new cotton factory, on a very extensive scale, to be erected in Caldewgate, within a short distonce of the railway, by the Messrs. Dixon, and we hear they are also about to erect a number of new dwelling-houses in the immediate neighbourhood of the proposed mill, for the accommo dation of the workmen to be employed. Other plans of improvement and for the extension of trade are also, we understand, in contemplation ; and should the general prospects of trade continue as at present, there is every prospect of Carlisle becoming, at no distant day, one of the most important and flourishing towns in the north of England.—Carlisk Journal. SERIOUS ACClDENT.—Thursday afternoon, as Mr. Maude, of Stanley-hall, was returning from the fete at Wentworth-house, in a barouche drawn by one horse, accom panied by two ladies and a gentleman, the horse set off at a furious rate just as they were entering Barnsley, and continued so to run until it was stopped by some one in the centre of the town. They all alighted and let the horse proceed by it se lf. It had not gone far when it started off again down a hill. seeing the danger, he en d eavoured to get There was another gig, . with a gentleman in it, comi ng i n a contrary direction ; out of the way, but it was impossible, as Mr. Maude's horse ran with tremendous force against th e ot h er, and upset the gig.
