S O CIETYfor the RELIEF o f DISTRESS.—This ki Society derives its origin from the following cause:— That, notwithstandin g the operation of the poor law and the numerous existing charitable associations, human beings, although within a stone's throw of the plenty, luxury, and refinement of this wealthy metropolis, die tmiserably of hunger and the want of the common neces saries of life. To prevent as far as possible the recurrence of an evil so disgraceful to our socia,l system, it is proposed in the first instance to establish .-4 co-operative system of visiting the poor, by aiding and increasing the power of existing local institutions which have this object view. To bring t o th e notice of paroe'bial in authorities such cases as legitimately 'telong to them alone, I, o aid the police and the Mendicity Society, to detect imposture, and to bring to the care of ..oespitals, refuges, penitentiaries, and existing charitable, associations those cases for which their several institutlons were established. Smcial and urgent cases of distress indicated by the ler gy—ministers of all dente ninations, medical profession, or agents of any existing Society, will be relieved as far as Possible by the judicious application of funds entrusted to district committees and local responsible persons appointed by them for the purpose, No cases will be relieved by money or otherwise at the central office. The promoters ~ .,f this movement now come forward, not in any spirit of ripposition to existing societies, but, on the contrary, with, the strong desire to co-operate with and assist them in the arduous task in which they, with such praise worthy zeel and perseverance, have been so many years laborioutily engaged. They now claim t o b e me t i n t h e spirit in which they advance, With the sol e p ur p ose o f f utl.hering, by friendly intercourse, the great Christian objcc,t which all charitable associations have in view. The fallowing noblemen and ge - atlemen having combined to form a Guarantee Committee ; by whom the entire ex penses of management are to be defrayed, the Society now call upon the public to entrikst it with tho requisite funds, which shall be applied, withe,ut the smallest deduction, to the relief of genuine distresP,.

Considering that we have reserved for the Diet of the 2d of April the confirmation, modification, or the abroga tion of the laws of 1847 and 1848, and their conformability to our resolutions, and that the actual re-establishment of the abovementioned laws. connected with questions the arbitrary and precipitate solution of which would compro mise all the historical ixstitutions and the interests of Hun gary as well as these of other countries, which we must watch over with equal solicitude; considering, moreover, that the decision upon questions which belong to the re establishment of the said laws is the object of a profound examination which is not possible to private individuals or to comitats—we consequently interdict every attempt to apply those laws in reality, and we order that any such attempt be opposed by the most serious means. If a resistance is manifested by the comitats to these orders, the sittings of the commissions of the comitats will be suspended, or those assemblies will be dissolved, and the execution of our present commands will be, if neces sary, secured by the use of material force.

If in consequence the meeting of the Diet, which we greatly desire, were delayed, and the solution, demanded not by the interest of Hungary alono but by that of the whole monarchy, of the most urgent and important questions, and of the re-establishment of the constitutional order of things, was again indefinitely postponed, with tranquil conscience we :throw the responsibility of the numerous disadvantages which would result therefrom, upon those who prevent by design or levity the work of peaceful ar rangement.

ON TRUE fsi FALSE SPERMATORRWEA; with the View to the Correction of wide-spread Errors in relation to the Treatment and Cure of Sufferers from De bility of the Generative system, or Sexual Hypochrondriasis. Translated from the German of Dr. PICKFORD. " Dr. Pickford is known to English readers by his frequent practical contributions to German medical literature. This is the first time, he informs us, that he has addressed himself to the non-medical reader. We trust that this may not he the last, if he shall detect any other , aqually flag - rant evil which it may be in his power to correet."—London 3.redieal Gazette. " The editor has conferred a great boon on the sufferers from this distressing malady by translating this little hook, and by laying bare the scandalous practices of unqualified adventurers, who profess to cure a disease of which they know nothing, with no other object than to fill their own purses. The difference between true Spermatorrhcca and the various forms of disease which resemble it are accurately de scribed, and thus a safe guide is offered for the treatment of the malady."—Medical Circular. " We have dilated so long upon the contents of the preli minary chapter, that we have scarcely left ourselves space for any notice of the subject specially treated of by Dr. Pickford ; but the moderate price at which the 'brochure' is sold, places it within the reach of every one interested in the matter."— Dublin Medical Press.

CITRUS' MEDICAL WORK, MANHOOD: A. MEDICAL ESSAY ON NERVOUS AND GENERA- AUSTRIA AND LIUIVOA_RY, MANIFESTO OF THE EMPEROR. The following - appeared in a portion of our impression et yesterday evening : The following is the text of the imperial mani- festo which the Emperor of Austria has just ad dressed to the comitats and municipal bodies in Hungary : When, 12 years ago, we resumed the government of the monarchy a disastrous civil war was raging in the interior of our empire ; almost every state, society itself, was shaken to its foundations. Tho passion, the blindness, the errors of many honest and well-intentioned men—the terrorism of the evil disposed—a series of diverse and unhappy circum stances, led to a solution by the sword. It was our will that this solution should not form the permanent basis of our political institutions. We did not wish to, and we could not abandon the interests of our monarchy, which had been defended and made ,secure by so many painful sacrifices; nevertheless, as to their definitive organisation, we have had above all the desire to ro-establish, as promptly and completely as possible, the political institu tions of this kingdom, rooted in the nation, to which they are so dear ; and we found therein, at the same time, for all our other peoples a guarantee for the pre paration and the establishment of the constitutional regime. It was in order to accomplish this work, that we published our diploma of the 20th of October. But peace, the compro•• raise itself, and reconciliation, demanded in return some good will and a sincere concurrence, without arriere pensce and without passionate excitement. We have well considered and recognised the scruples which aro opposed to the partial re-establishment of the Hungarian constitution before the definitive regulation of the whole political organisation. However, those scruples have not prevented us from effecting this regeneration, espe cially in the domain of municipal action ; and we were per suaded that confidence begets confidence, and that a frank and loyal initiative would ever find just appreciation, real agreement, and sincere assistance amongst a noble people, politically mature. Our expectation has not been completely realised. We observe with calmness and indulgenco the first impulses of political life, and attributed them to the agi tated current of the time, suppressed passions, and the effervescence of long-suppressed political activity. Now, however, that some comitats profit by the election of com mittees to admit amongst them individuals who are the irreconcileable enemies of our monarchy and of our sove reign rights ; who, allying themselves to foreign enemies threaten the repose of our country by perfidious conspira cies and insolent appeals ; now that they seek to make use of the divergence of views relative to the approaching set lement of the question of imposts, in the sense of a refusal which dries up the natural resources of the State, troubles men's minds, and forced the situation in a direction which its hypocritical and frivolous advocates ought themselves to consider intolerable ; now that it is sought to cast aside with feverish impatience the temporary measures indispen sable to the maintenance of private rights ; that under the pretext of maintaining public order, certain committees re• establish and arm the National Guard, which is a new expense to the people ; remove, in making the appoint ments of the functionaries of the comitats, our authorities, and do not hesitate to fo . rget their duty and exceed their legal province, to confiscate to their profit as independent bodies almost all the authority of the State ; now, we say, it is an imperative duty upon us to put a barrier to these criminal encroachments, and not to suffer constitutional liberty to be so abused as to overturn public order by revolution. The faith of our peoples in the sincerity of our intentions to bring back the constitutional system, will be upset if we tolerate much longer the anarchical tendencies, the development of which has always caused the ruin of legitimate liberty. We hold ourselves unchangeably to our resolutions of the 20th of October, and we shall preserve to our peoples the constitutional development which we have guaranteed, and maintain all that we have promised to our kingdom of Hungary. But our resolve is not the less firm to oppose revolution with all our strength, whether it present itself with an open front, or hide under legal forms ; and our efforts, we are convinced, will find•support in the true pa triotism of all good citizens ; they will not suffer obstacles, provoked by the egotism or passions of certain mon, to close the path of peaceful arrangements ; they will exert them selves to prevent authority from being reduced, in the accomplishment of its most sacred duties, to its material force, at a moment in which the latter ought only to serve as an assistance to moral power. In bringing our intentions and warnings to the knowledge of all the comitats of our kingdom of Hungary, we recall the Article 3 of the year 1790, the provisions of which, with regard to our coronation, we expect shortly to fulfil, but the other provisions of which establish equally the duties of subjects up to the time of the coronation, and we strictly ordain— 1. That everywhere, where they have tho audacity to choose as members of the commissions of comitats men con demned as traitors to their country, and who, living abroad, ally themselves to the external enemies of the monarchy, in order to weave criminal plots against us and the state— those elections are null and void. 2. We decree, under severe penalties, that all attempts having for their object to arrest directly or indirectly the levying of direct or indirect taxes, or arbitrarily decreeing new ones, be suppressed, that all decisions relative thereto be immediately abrogated, and that the royal government be immediately informed of the execution of this order. 3. Also we declare, until the deliberations of the Diet, and eventually until the provisional measures which we shall decree, upon the proposition of our judex eurke— null and of no effect all resolutions suppressing the judicial authorities which we have maintained tem porarily by our diploma of October 23, or which fetter their action, and we severely enjoin upon the tribunals of the country to maintain the laws and ordinances existing in it, and the definitive reform of which cannot be validly effected in the interest of the country and of private inte rests, but by the regular deliberations of the Diet; and not TIVE DISEASES.

LORD OrE_RSTONII ON THE DEFENCE OF THE COUNTRY. NORTHAMPTON, FRIDAY. Last evening a banquet was given at the George Hotel, in this town, to Lieut.-Col. Lord Lindsay, as captain of the Overstone Mounted Rifle Corps, by the members of that corps, all of whom were pre sent in uniform. Ensign Northcotc presided, and was supported on the right by the guest of the evening. There were also on the right and left of the chairman the Earl of Euston, Earl Spencer, Lord Overstone, Mr. R. Knightley, M.P., Col. the Hon. Charles Lindsay, &c. The toast of " The tord Lieutenant of the County" having been proposed, Lord OVERSTONE, in the absence of the Marquis of Exeter, responded. He said that one circum stance rendered that toast important that evening. If that great emergency connected with which and in preparation for which they had assembled toge ther and were banding themselves in the garb of war should ever occur, the solidity and safety of this country would depend upon their combination. At the head of each county must necessarily stand the Lord Lieutenant, and by drinking that toast they were drinking health to him who would in that emergency have the whole posse eomitatus under his direction. (Cheers.) At a later period of the evening, The CHAIRMAN proposed " The Honorary Mem bers of the Corps," coupling with the toast the name of Lord 0 verstone, who, he said, was the decus et tutamen of their corps. (Loud cheers.) Lord OVERSTONE, in responding to the toast, said he had to ask them for a large share of their indul gence. They had come together in connexion with two great considerations, both of which struck deeply into his feelings. In the first place, they were assembled to pay a well-deserved and a most gratifying compliment to one in whose welfare, character, and well-being he must necessarily feel a deep interest. They were come together in con nexion with a great national movement, and for the purpose of declaring their allegiance, separately and collectively, to one of the noblest principles which in his judgment could animate the breast of man, or rouse him to great deeds, whether of sac rifice or exertion. He was speaking of the love of their country. (Hear.) The noble lord then pro ceeded to allude to the relation in which he stood to the gallant colonel, referring to his deeds at Alma and at Inkerman. After bringing his remarks to a close on this portion of the subject, the noble lord spoke of the volunteer movement and the defence of the country. He said—l should not have satis fied my own sense of duty, nor do I think that I should have realised your reasonable expectations from me, if before I sat down I d;d not make a few remarks upon that other branch of the subject—the great national movement with which this meeting is so directly and intimately connected. No doubt, while sitting at this table I have reflected upon what topics I could most appropriately address you, and I confess I feel myself bewildered and overwhelmed with the variety and magnitude of the subjects that suggest themselves. Would that I could rise to the grandeur of this subject, or that I could give any thing like an adequate expression to the feelings which animate my breast ! And in addressing you I feel it to be my duty to occupy your time by alluding to that great principle which lies at the bottom of the whole of this subject—the love of our country. (Cheers.) The rev. gentleman who returned thanks on behalf of the clergy alluded to the great Roman people—the greatest nation that has ever existed on the face of the globe in all that concerns war or go vernment. I therefore would allude to the great Roman orator who, speaking in the midst of the Roman forum, and supported by the applause of that great Roman people around him, exclaimed, " Dear to us are the relations and joys of private life, dear to us are our wives, dearer to us are our children, but all these endearments are concentrated and intensified in one statement—the love of our coun try." Again, a historian of our own day, describ ing the condition of another country, which was rapidly sinking into decay, explained it on the simple principle that the love of country had vanished, and with it had departed every security for private happiness, for public prosperity, for national safety, or for individual mutual respect. But, gentlemen, I might go on and descant to you on the intense form in which this noble principle burns in the breasts of this nation. I might go on to recount to you the grand, the sufficient, the over whelming reasons they have for entertaining such a feeling. I might speak to you of great historical associations, of all those deeds of virtue, of sacrifice, and of energy, by which our ancestors have piled up that great and noble inheritance which we have received from them as a sacred trust to be maintained and to be defended. I might speak to you of the Constitution of this country, under which we enjoy so large a share of well regulated liberty and continual pros perity. I might speak to you of that Constitution of which it has become even a trite saying that it is the pride of England while it is the envy of the world. It is a Constitution under which we enjoy many blessings. It is the noblest work man has ever effected, but if we are to look upon it in a more humble but in a more reasonable manner, as a blessing from Heaven, it is—and it is with reve rence 1 say it—the greatest blessing which God has ever bestowed upon any nation of this earth. (Cheers.) And gentlemen, remembering that I am addressing myself to a body eminently conn ected with agriculture, I would ask you to cast your eyes over the fair face of that nature which surrounds you. Look at it teeming with crops, the gifts of Providence. For what have we co-operated to gether, with our capital, our intelligence, our in dustry, and with our hard and persevering labour ? For what do we improve the cultivation of the soil ? For what have wo collected together those large, those immeasurable stores with which every suc ceeding autumn has decorated the face of our land, filling our hearts with gladness, filling our garners with plenty, and filling our thoughts with grati tude to the great GivLr of all Good? For what have we effected these great results ? Is it that we may see these fair fields trampled down by hostile feet, and see these just and legitimate efforts of our industry and our e xer ti on wrenc h e d f rom u s by an invading army ? But there are other considera tions which go more directly to our hearts. There is in this country that visible emblem by which we recognize all the blessings we enjoy—that revered and beloved personality who sits on that throne humbled Are we :a s degraded and from it diff uses over h er peo pl e th e g l or io u s light o f h er const i tut i onal government, k i ndled b y the genial li g ht o f h er pr i vate v i rtue and domest i c worth. presence prepared f see that throne roll e d i n t h e d ust, and that b e l ove d Queen and foreign enemy in Buckingham Palace ? (Loud cheers, and cries of " Never.") Lastly, I might speak to you of your own homes, of those homes of purity and bliss, whose guardian angels are your wives and daughters, and which are consecrated by their virtue and:sympathy. (Cheers.) I leave these considerations, however, to every man's heart. And then I might go on to ask you to con sider what it is that the country has done in this emergency, and in what way has she met the de mands upon her ? Slow, no doubt, we were to recognise the undoubted fact that the protection which we derived from the pre.stige and the influ ence of our power was owing to the remembrance of our former great deeds by land and sea, and which have been weakened by the lapse of time. Slow were we to recognise the fact that such an effect had been produced, and that the defences which Providence bad long thrown around our island had been materially weakened by the pro gress of science. But when once that conviction pervaded the British mind, what was the result ? Why, the fable of old was at once reduced to a practical reality. We read of a hero of old vho possessed the mysterious virtue of stamping upon the ground, and armed men sprang up under his foot. England stamped on the ground, and armed men have indeed sprung up around her. (Loud cheers.) Then we are led to consider what are the true and real ingredients of this great national enterprise, and what are the real secrets of the national honour and safety. You may increase your navy—you may undertake the gigantic task of reconstructing the British navy, and you are right in doing so. You may have a large area of circumvallation, and you may plant batteries on every weak point of your coast; you may augment the artillery; and you may increase the weight of their metal; but what are these if British hearts are wanting ? (Loud and prolonged cheering.) Where is your power without these ? Gentlemen, without these you would be unprotected. Of what use would be your fields without light and heat, without that great beneficence—the sun—to warm and rouse them to fertility ? Of no more use would be all your fortifications and appliances, if you had not British hearts. Gentlemen, permit me to say—in no language of flattery, in no terms of exaggeration, allow me to say to you, as the representatives of the whole Volunteer move ment of this country, that in you I see the two elements of a great State, and the only certain secrets of national safety and honour. Therefore I congratulate you, and I congratulate the country, on the position in which this movement now stands. It has removed a blot from the character of this country; it has put an end to those unmanly and discreditable panics of which you have heard. It has restored the British people to a manly sense of self-dignity and of re liance for safety upon nothing but the energies of their own arms. This has produced a profound sensation throughout the world, and has added to the dignity of England and her just and useful in fluence over all nations of the world. Then there remains but ono remark in conclusion. Persevere in and consolidate this great movement. Remember that the evil against which you have to guard is a permanent and enduring danger. It is a danger arising from the altered condition and circumstances of the world in 'general, and the position of this country in particular. Remember also that the treasure which you have to guard is the glorious Constitution of this country, and the moral influ ence of this country in upholding all that is Talu able to man throughout the world. It is, I trust, enduring, and your efforts will be directed towards preserving and maintaining it. (Cheers.) But, gentlemen, it is said that we are now at peace, and why should we decorate ourselves with the panoply of war ? We are not at war, undoubtedly, but that is all you can say. It suits the convenience or policy of other countries at the present moment to extend to us a friendly hand, and to do so with ap parent cordiality ; but there is an old saying, " Trust not the Greeks even when they bring you presents." Remember, if you wish to preserve peace and all the blessings of peace, you can do it by no other means than by showing at all times that you are adequately and sufficiently prepared for war. (Cheers.) This was repeated over and over again as the very basis of the power, the safety, and the greatness of the Roman people. I could multiply to you references without end, but I would rather ex press that sentiment to you in the language of our great writer, Shakspere, a man who seems to have been imbued by a sort of inspiration from Heaven. He knew all the secret springs of human con duct and the motive machinery of human actions. It is remarkable that the words which I shall ask the liberty of reading to you, and with which I shall conclude my address, were put by that great man in the mouth of the son of a King of France, advising that King, his father, and urging and stimulating the people of France, to take timely precaution during a period of peaee to protect themselves against the possibility of invasion by England. It is a remarkable coincidence. Times are changed, circumstances are changed, parties are in different positions, but the principle is engraven in the nature of the thing, and I address it to you with the most earnest recomendation that you attend to it and that you act by it. The pas sage is from " King Henry V." : " In cases of defence, 't is beet to weigh The enemy more mighty than he seems. It is most meet we arm us 'gainst the foe; For peace should not so dull a kingdom (Though war nor no known quarrel were in question) But that defences, musters, preparations, Should be maintained, assembled, and collected, As were a war in expectation." The noble lord resumed his seat amid loud and long prolonged cheering from all parts of the room. Several local toasts followed.

During the first years of life, the.ofituoidexspaabnodutnhde over the solids, and the elemen.to which g frame are received and app ro p rzated very plentifully, while a much smaller amount is exhaled. The stage of maturity is that in which the balance is equal ; and thi s p er i o d i s supposed to includ e, at the outside, twenty years of human life. Then begins the process of dying, as the philosophers say ; or, as less learaed persons express it, we turn our faces towards old age; or, according to the common figure of speec h, we begin to go down the hill. The age :of forty-five is assigned for this change. How long is that stage of decline, speaking accurately ? It is so long that giddy readers may laugh at the mention of it. To be tending towards death from five-and -forty seems to them ridiculous. So it would be as a matter of senti ment, among people who think about death in such an ex aggerated way as we, of this age, do. But I am hero speaking of the natural facts which bear upon the condition of old age ; and that is nay concern with forty-five. I n a rough way, the physiological distribution of our life is set down as including five-and-twenty of decline, l andltwenty of maturity between them. Thies makes up the three-score years and ten which the Psalmist speaks of as the natural duration of human life.—AfissAfartinealf in" Once a Week." k TA'Ord . : _r. iy.Ause death has just keel/ nounced, was one of the very few members of Li: House of Commons who had held an uninterrupted possession of a seat in that assembly for 30 years. He was first returned for the borough of Tiverton in 1831, and only retired from Parliament at the dis solution of 1859. For many years he was the col league of Lord Palmerston. Though not a frequent speaker, and taking no very prominent part in de bate, few Parliamentary names were more familiar to the public than that of Mr. Heathcot. But how he obtained and continued to hold his position is not so well known. He was one of those men of remark able constructive genius who, towards the end of the last and in the early part of the present century' by their inventivepowers so improved our machinery and increased its productiveness as to lay the foun dation, deep and strong, of our present manufacturing greatness, with all its benefits to the labouring and middle classes, and advantage to the nation at large. John Heathcot was the son of a small farmer at Long Whatton, in Leicestershire, where he was born in 1784. He was apprenticed at an early age to a frame-smith, named Samuel Caldwell, at Hathern, a neighbouring village. During his apprenticeship he acquired a complete practical knowledge of the business, and of all the mechanism. of the stocking frame, and warp machines. Some part of the latter he improved by his own inven tion, when yet a boy. And it was by the applica tion of a clever apparatus to one of those machines, whereby " mitts of a lacelike appearance were produced, that his attention was first turned to mechanical lace making. "Point net" lace had been extensively wrought by machinery. This was a looped mesh, and therefore slight and frail ; but the attention of very ingenious mechanics had been turned for some years to the question of making a mesh or lace of threads twisted round each other in the formation of the mesh. Hitherto the problem had baffled all their endeavours, reducing all who made them to poverty, and driving some to insanity. Mr. Heathcoat after having served his term of appren ticeship, settled in Nottingham, and commeneed business on his own account, as a " setter up" of hosiery and warp frames, in the machine shop of Mr. Leonard Elliott, in Broad-street. Elliott was a man of superior mind and skill, and through him young Heathcoat became acquinted with the san guine ideas then afloat in the proverbially ingeni ous mind of Nottingham mechanics. Among those was how Buckingham or French lace could be me chanically produced, and to this he gave undivided attention. Elliott described him to have had a thorough practical knowledge of mechanical powers and contrivances ; as inventive, persevering, un daunted by difficulty or mistakes, and consequent temporary want of success; patient, self-denying, and very taciturn, but having surprising confidence that his application of mechanical principles would be crowned eventually with success. His great object was to construct a machine that should do the work of the pillow, the multitude of pins, the threads and bobbins, and the fingers, and to super sede them in the production of lace, as the stocking loom had superseded the knitting needle. He first ascertained by observation what pillow lace was, and how it was made. Then, analysing the com ponent threads, and how they were each used in forming the resulting tissue, he slowly arrived at classification into longitudinal and diagonal. The mass thus disentangled, he placed those used lengthwise on a beam as warp. The remainder he reserved as weft, each thread to be working sepa rately, and to be caused to twist round a warp thread, and then to cross diagonally its appropriate neighbour thread, and thus close the upper and lower sides of the mesh. Then followed the me chanical arrangements to effect these operations with certainty and speed. The bobbins to distri bute the thread, the carriages and grooves in which they must run, their mode of twisting round the warp and travelling from side to side of the machine, and a view of the whole machine, as invented by Mr. Heathcoat, caused the late M. I. Brunel to declare that "it appears to me one of the most complete mechanicial combinations, in which the author displays uncommon powers of invention. I cannot withhold the tribute due to him for originality and ingenuity through all the various combinations he has brought into action for the purpose of accomplishing a texture which had been attempted before, but to my know ledge with no success." A patent taken out in 1808 by Mr. Heathcoat for producing twist lace was on a horizontal plan, and was well described as a. hori zontal pillow; but the experience gained in the construction led to the machine patented in 1809, to which the above remarks principally refer. That of 1808 was at once thrown aside; and with his usual tact he adhered only to the sound principle of the first patent, while he effectually rectified the modes of operation by his second. The principle of both remains embodied in the bobbin net ma ,, chines of the present day, though with vast im provements—some effected by himself, and more by others, to whom he was ever anxious to accord their due meed of praise for the employment of talents only second to those by which the original machine was designed and executed. This success was not without its cost, It was gained by the employment of self-directed talents, during hours of bodily and mental toil, added to the necessary labours of the day, without external aid or encouragement, and in the face of mechanical difficulties in the progress of the work so great that Mr. Heathcoat said, when describing in 1836 his whole procedure in the affair, " the single difficulty of getting the diagonal threads to twist in the allot ted space was so great that if now to be done I should probably not attempt its accomplishment." Moreover, domestic straits and no ordinary personal and relative self-denial were cheerfully encountered during this long outlay of time and money. But at 24 years of age Mr. Heathcoat stood the conscious inventor of one of the most intricate pieces of ma chinery ever produced. And the solid reward of his work followed quickly on his success. The first square yard of plain net was cheaply sold from his machine at £5; for 25 years the average price has been sd. During the like period the average annual returns of the trade have been at least £4,000,000 sterling, giving employment at fair wages to pro bably 150,000 workpeople. In 1816 the factory at Loughborough in which Mr. Heathcoat's business was carried on was attacked by the Luddites and the lace frames de stroyed. This caused the removal of the manufacture to Tiverton, where it restored the prosperity that in addition to the great ad employment. had been lost by the decay of the woollen trade.

This is a good out fit for the Southern Revolutionists, added to their ample supply of small arms at the arsenals and armories, which had an increase of 325,000 within 12 months.
