In 1818 the British Government fitted out two expeditions to the North Pole. Captain Buchan, commanding the Trent and the Dorothy, was di. rected to attempt a passage between Spitzbergen and Nova Zembla, over the pole, into the Pacific; and Captain Ross, commanding the Isabella and the Alexander, to attempt the north-west passage from Davis' Straits and Baffin's Bay, into the Frozen Ocean, and thence into the Pacific. Ross reached 77 deg. 40 min. latitude, and more accurately de termined the situation of Baffin's Bay, which until then was believed to extend 10 degrees further to the east than it actually does. Although he sailed up Lancaster Sound he did not advance far enough to ascertain that it was open, not baying arrived there until the Ist of October, when danger from the ice obliged him to quit the coast. Lieute nant Parry, who had accompanied Captain Ross, who was sent, in conjunction with Captain Lyon, in 1819, on a second voyage into Baffin's Bay, and having penetrated so far as to gain the first prize offered by Parliament (five thousand pounds), and having made the most western point ever reached in the Polar Seas, he was intrusted with the direction of the Hecla and Fury on a similar expedition in 1821. These ships returned in October, 1823, without achieving the principal object for which they were despatched. In 1824 Parry and Lyon were again sent out for the disco very of a North-west passage in the Hecla and Fury. After wintering in Prince Regent's Bay the ships sailed south wardly, and in consequence of storms and icebergs, it became necessary to abandon the Fury, and with her crew, on board the Hecla, Captain Parry returned to England in Oct., 1825. The Admiralty sent Parry, in the Hecla, in 1827, to reach, if possible, the North Pole. Having journeyed thirty-five days over the ice, beginning at 81 deg. 12 min. 1.5 sec. he was compelled to retrace his course. So far the exertions of the British Go vernment. The land expedition, under Franklin, it is unnecessary to notice. Piqued by the real or supposed neglect of Go vernment, Captain Ross, in the spring of 1829, un dertook an expedition, on his own resources, with a view of effecting a passage into the Polar Sea, and to reach Behring's Straits along the American Con tinent, the result of which we are about to state. He sailed in the month of May, and landed at Hull on the 18th of October, 1833, having, as our readers are aware, been taken up in Prince Regent's Inlet by the Isabella whaler, Captain Humphreys, th identical ship in which he made his first voyage Leeds Intelligencer.

Agreeable to the Newmarket fashion, there were seve ral false starts before the horses could be got off; when this difficult object was effected Freedom took the lead, Bentley and Louisa lying well up with him, and the three quite distinct from the body of horses behind. Without any change of position they ran till half way between the Duke's Stand and the Chair, where Freedom appeared to have had enough of it. Bent ley then tuok the front, Louisa having her head at his girths and looking well for the race; Bentley, how ever, was tight in hand, the extra weight compelling his rider to keep him in reserve till the last moment; about twenty yards from the chair Pavis let him go, and he won cleverly by a length. Sir M. Wood's filly had been run ning in the crowd till past the Duke's Stand, where she began creeping up; at the cords she went by Freedom, made a vigorous effort close upon the post, and came in leo well with Forth's mare that the Judge was unable to place a second.

On Monday last the sea water never altogether left the old hat bour, there being three feet in depth of water at the lowest ebb of the tide. On Tuesday forenoon, when, according to the almanack, there should have been a falling off in depth at high water at least of half a foot, there was an increase of three feet and a half; and some vessels were in consequence enabled to enter the harbour which were not expected there before the next spring tides. In the afternoon of the day, however, the most extraordinary circumstance occurred which was ever seen by the natives of the port, namely, that a vessel drawing tive feet and a half of water entering the harbour at dead iow water, that is, about three o'clock, high water being in the morning between nine and ten, and in the evening between ten and eleven o'clock...

We are happy to find that the freedom of the city of Exeter has been presented to Sir Robert Inglis, as a mark of the respect of the Corporation for his talents and principles. —Hampshire Advertiser. Theatrical property still continues every where in a sad state of depression. At Dublin the Manager has resorted to the expedient of reducing the prices of admissio❑ for the ladies, in the forlorn hope of adding to the number of his patrons. At Edinburgh, the Manager writes to the newspapers to say that on only one of the last four nights have his receipts equalled his expenditure; and that he frequently draws up the curtain to 8/., 91., and 10/. The Bristol theatre, and the Bath theatre, are both advertised to be let. Sir John Cam Hobhouse has taken the man sion and estate of Basildon Park, near Reading, where the Right Hon. Baronet, with his lady (a sister of the Mar quis of Tweedale) and family, will reside until the Corn mencement of the next season. The patrimonial seat of Sir John is at Westbury, in Wiltshire. We have just heard that Lewis Lloyd, Esq., of the firm of Jones, Lloyd, and Co., bankers, London, is the purchaser of the Gladbrane estate, county of Carmar. then, for 101,0001. (including the timber). We are glad to find that this valuable estate has fallen into the hands of a native of the county of liberal principles,— Welshman. The report of an augmentation of troops being ordered for the West Indies, is without foundation ; th e regular relief being all that is on the move.— Hampshire Advertiser. THE ENGLISH IN GERMANY.—A curious laffray occurred a fortnight back near Baden. A party of English, including Sir John Sinclair and his son, were walking on the road, when some ruffians in a charcoal cart spat on the ladies. One of the gentlemen (Captain Grevel) in the indignation of the moment, having nothing else at hand, threw his hat at, the fellows. It fell in the cart, and wishing to recover it, he jumped in after it. when one of the Germans seized him by the collar, and the others drove off the horses at a gallop. The Captain knocked down his assailant, and afterwards gave him a good thrashing, and the other English coming up did as much for his companions, to teach them better manners for the future.—Hampshire Advertiser. The census taken last week of the inhabi tants within the parliamentary boundaries of the burgh of Elgin, in terms of the Police Act, give a population of 1,257 males and 2,996 females, making a total of 5,243 persons. The unmarried ladies will be astonished to learn from this list that the females within the parlia:nen tary boundaries exceed the males by 729. When the body of Cromwell was disinterred, after the restoration, it was found in a vault in the middle aisle of Henry the Seventh's Chapel. In the inside of the coffin, and on the breast of the corpse, was laid a copper plate finely gilt, enclosed in a thin case of lead. On one side of this plate was engraven the Arms of England impaled with those of Oliver, and on the reverse the following legend :—" Oliverius Protector, Reipublicas Scotian et Hibernise, natus 25 Aprilis, 1599, inauguratus 16 Decembris, 1653, rnortuus 3 Septembris, ann. 1658, his situs est."—Encyclopcedia Britannica. The cholera, which has prevailed at Falmouth to rather an alarming extent, is said to be decreasing. The Rev. Archdeacon Sheepshanks, Vicar of St. Gluvius, had a small portion of his glebe enclosed at his own expense, as a burying place for the bodies of persons dying of cholera, should that epidemic reach the town of Fenryn, which is situated in that parish. IRISH MILITIA STAFF.—The returns re lative to this body called for by Mr. Littleton refer only to the number of sergeants of each of the corps at head quarters, and are designed for the information of Lord Melbourne, the Secretary for the Home Department. We subjoin the number of persons connected with each staff:-1 Captain, 1 Sergeant Major, 13 Sergeants, one of whom acts as Quartermaster Sergeant, 1 Drum Major, and 6 Drummers—in all, 1 Officer and 21 men receiving Government pay. LONGEVITY.—A poor woman, called " Kate the Sailor," of the great age of one hundred and four years, and in perfect possession of her faculties, is now living at Eglwysbrewism, Glamorganshire. A woman named Ann Samuel, of the still greater age of one hundred and six, now resides at Rowminster, Mon mouthshire, and is able to walk about her house with tolerable facility.—Bristol Mercury. Peter Cunningham, the very ingenious son of Allan Cunningham, has recently put forth an elegant, cheap, and accurate edition of the Poems of William Drummond, of Hawthornden ; in the progress of which Mr. Cunningham professes to have derived some interest ing facts relating to the poet's life, from that learned antiquary, David Laing, of Edinburgh. The utter worthlessness of the edition published by Jeffery of Pall mall, in 1791, renders the present a valuable accession to the reprints of the popular poets, who flourished during the reigns of Elizabeth and James the First. FATAL ACCIDENT.—Mr. J. Read, of Islip, near Oxford, aged 34, died on Saturday, Sept. 28. On the Saturday preceding he trod upon a nail, which pierced his shoe, and, as was afterwards found, the point of which remained in his groat toe. He gave his foot rest and applied poultices till the Tuesday following, when so little appeared to be the matter that he was able to attend to his business as usual. On the Thursday evening lie complained of tightness in the chest, which be attributed to a cold. In the course of the night he felt spasms in the neck, and medical assistance was called in, when it was found he was suffering from lock jaw. The wound was examined, and a small portion of the nail ex tracted. The spasms continued to increase, and lie lived in dreadful agony twenty-seven hours, when death released him from his sufferings.-4Vorthampton Herald. A female infant was, born eight months ago at Verdun, with the germs of the disease called hydroce phalus, or water on the brain, which has gradually in creased till the head has become so enlarged that it mea sures three feet in circumference. The bones forming the vault of the head have yielded thus far to the expansion of the brain. The space between the two [tones is sensible to the touch, and the whole head is so nalliealde that it changes its form according to the position in which the child is laid. She could see with only one eye when born, and has since becoine totally blind. She utters plaintive cries, but is not yet reduced to a state of maras mus, as the digestive functions continue to act regularly. It cannot, however, be long before death puts an end to the sufferings of this unfortunate infant.— Galignani. CAPTAIN OWEN'S VOYAGES.— " Africa may he said to possess a stronger attraction than most other regions of the globe, from its having been lass explored; and, consequently, affording a more fertile and I extensive source of novelty for the gratification of curiosity and adventure. Great as the progress has been in our day in the development of geographical information, relative to this great Continent, consequent on the exertions and zeal of Hornemann, Park, Oudney, Denham, Clap perton, Laing, and many other travellers, not forgetting the modest, unpretending Lander, much still remains to be done to complete the geography even of Northern Africa; and as to the southern part of this continent, it continues to exhibit almost a blank on our maps. A survey of its eastern coast was the main object of the present expedition; and the united labours of the surviv, ing officers of the little squadron arc detailed in these volumes. The results are highly iciportant."— Quarterly Review. CAPTAIN Ross.--Yesterday afternoon,about 3 o'clock, Captain Was waited upon the Commissioners of Police, in Scotland-yard, for the purpose of giving information of a loss he had sustained of very considerable importance, and requesting they would, if possible, cause it to be regained. It appears that Captain Ross had had in the morning an interview with the Lords of the Admiralty, to whom he presented some of his papers connected with hie late perilous exploit, which on his departure were resto re d t o hi m . Th e C apta i n called a cabriolet off the stand in Pa r li ament - street , an d d es i red the man to drive tc his residence at the Portland Hotel. With n ten minutes after his arrival, he, to his confusion, discovered that he bad unfortunately left in the cab the whole of his important documents and papers. The Commissioners On hearing of his loss instructed Sergeant Shackell, of the A division, to proceed immediately in search of the cab, which Captain Ross described as being drawn by a grey horse, and the body of the cab being painted yellow. The number is not known. Should t he driver of the cab see this, he will doubtless immediately restore the papers. The news of Captain Ross's return was re ceived at Stranraer with thrilling enthusiasm. Ross is one of us (says our correspondent), and many of his com panions are Gallovidians. Stranraer was the last spot of British earth which the voyagers' feet trod before they started on their perilous course. It is not wonderful, then, that every heart was gladdened by their return. Tuesday was indeed a day of joy in Stranraer. The feeling might have been displayed in a more imposing manner, but deeper or more sincere it could not be. Flags were flying and guns firing during the whole day, and all the vessels in the harbour were decked out with flags for the occasion. Many of the inhabitants were anxious that there should be an needed illumination, but this th e m ag i s t ra t es f or b a d e , as t h e news confirmation. So me b r illi ant fi rewor k s were 14 displayed in the c ourse of the evening from a private bat tery erected by - ,0 58 himself.—Ayr Observer. DREADFUL EFF ECT OF ANTICIPATED M U NICIPAL REroam.—Su c h h as b een t h e e ff ect pro d uce d by the municipal comm i ssion at Coventry, that the mem bers of the corporation of that city have given up their annual dinner, which for 500 years has been proverbial for its constituttonal attractions. We fear that these inqui sitive commissioners have substituted that hotnely dish called slew. It appears that R. K. Rotherham, Esq., the late mayor, a tory pur excellence, has not been re-elected according to the good old friendly way of doing things, but that Mr. Hawkes, who has been a reformer of corpora tion abuses, has been appointed. —Birmingham Journal. NAPOLEON'S LETTERS. The following brief and characteristic letter from Napoleon to Josephine, announcing the victory of Eylau, is from a series in the Court Journal :—. 6 6 To the Empress in Paris.--Eylau, Feb. 9tb, 1807... My dear Josephine—A peat battle SPIRIT OF THE PUBLIC JOURNALS, took place yesterday; The victory is mine, but I have suffered great loss. The enemy's lose, which is still more considerable, does not console me. I write you these few Imes, though greatly fatigued, to inform you that lam well, and to assure you I love you. Wholly yours. Napoleon." The following is of the same date, lest, w suppose, the first should be miscarried :—" I write a Wti:d or two, my love, to allay your anxiety. The enemy has lost the battle, 40 pieces of cannon, 10 flags, and 12,000 prisoners. He has suffered dreadfully. I have sustained ' great loss, 16,000 killed, and from 3 to 4,000 wounded. Your cousin Tescher behaved very well. I have made him an officer of my staff. Corbineau has been killed by a bomb.shell. I was very much attached to him. He was an officer of great merit. lam much grieved by his 'leath. My horse guards covered themselves with glory. D'Alletnagne is dangerously wounded. Adieu, my love, wholly yours, Napoleon." As a proof of the excellence to which the elm will attain in this county, we may mention that a noble tree, fallen this season, now lies in the grounds of a ❑ei,ghbouring demesne, which has been carefully measured, and found to contain no less than three hundred and seventy-five square feet of sound timber.-- Worcester Herald.

On Wednesday last the Vale 9f Clwyd steamer sailed from Cumberland Bason for Liverpool, having on board about 100 individuals, emigrants intending to depa, t from the latter port by the Mountaineer, for Van Diemen's Land. Of this number about 80 were paupers, chilly children, sent out at the expense of the Corporation of the Poor. The latter were placed under the care of Mr. L. Sliewring, of Bridge-street, who, we understand, intends to settle in the colony. A considerable number of persons attended to witness the sailing of the packet, and, as she left the dock, were cheered by the passengers on board, who seemed in good spirits. —B ristol Mercury. It is now thirty-five years since his Majesty's ship Colossus was wrecked in St. Mary's Roads, Scilly. A few weeks since two young men (brothers) were there with a diving apparatus of a new construction, and suc ceeded in bringing up several pieces of cannon, &c., from the wreck. The following extraordinary fact merits investigation : one of the guns explodli f on being struck with a hammer, whil e l y i ng near St.)ll 'a'ry's Quay, and the wadding, &c., fell on Rat Island. Master-gunner Ross was severely injured in the leg by the accident. SCENE AT SION CHAPEL.—A most extra, ordinary scene was enacted at Sion Chapel, Brewer street, on Sunday evening. Some dispute having arisen between Mr. Comfort, the Minister, and Mr. Steer, time proprietor of the chapel, relative to the remuneration of the former for his services, the Elders had given the Minister notice to leave before the next Sunday. Sunday evening the preacher alluded to the subject in his discourse, and stated that the reason for his exclusion was an accusation of avarice, covetousness, and an intimation that if he con tinued to preach, many of the subscribers would give up their seats. He then called out to all those who were willing to remain with him to hold up their hands, and subsequently those who disliked him to do the same. The congregation immediately followed this most extraordinary suggestion, and a great majority appeared for the preacher. Mr. Steer then said it was imperative on him to explain. The congregation refused to bear him, and hissed, hooted, and yelled. The ladies of course screamed with terror; some fainted in the chapel, and others waited till they got home. The Minister and Mr. Steer (who officiates as clerk) addressed the congregr'' length, however, the audi, threatening to give up their many others blaming bins Gazette.

Tuesday last was the assessioning or new taking for the Duchy Manors of Liskeard and Rillaton. Prior to the commencement of the business as usual, Mr. Loudon, the attorney for the duchy of Cornwall, read some correspondence and notices, by which it appears that his Majesty, as Duke of Cornwall, gives notice that he will enforce his right, as established by the decision of Lord Chief Justice Tenterden, at the celebrated trial at bar, in December, 1829. Mr. L. explained that his notice did not affect the tenants in their new taking, which might go on as usual ; only the duchy officers had thought fit to give notice that the tenants might have no just ground of complaint (should there be auy more trials on the subject) and say they had received no proper notice. After some discussion between the learned gentleman and the homage (or jury), many of whom were of the legal profession, the assessioning went on as usual; and afterwards about 100 sat down in the long room to a most excellent and Alen_ tiful dinner provided by Mr. Webb, of the King's Arms, who is celebrated for his good dinners and wine. DISCOVERYOF THE REMAINS OF A VESSEL IN THE LOCH OF SPYNIE.—About three weeks ago Mr. Dean, Leiner, Easter Oakenhead, situated on the Eastern extremity of the Loch of Spynie, while engaged plough_ ing land which had been reclaimed since the draining of the Loch the plough struck something which appeared to be wood ; but, thinking it might be the remains of a tree he paid no farther attention to it, until having broken three ploughs he resolved upon removing the obstruction. On proceeding to accomplish this object, to his astonishment be found that the wood was the re mains of a vessel. Being busy in laying down his wheat seed he covered it up with the intention of 2.Ya wining it when he had more leisure. Having heard of the dis covery we went yesterday to the spot where it was dis covered, and found that nothing had been done towards ascertaining what state it might be in. By exerting ourselves for about an hour and a half, with the assist ance of a young man who came on the same errand, we were enabled to clear away so much near the stern that we can form a pretty correct idea of its size. The whole length of the vessel appears to have been thirty feet; but we did not ascertain the breadth. The whole of the ribs are entire and composed of oak, and the stern is quite round, on Sir Robert Sepping's plan. When we came to that part of the vessel which must have been the deck, although distinguishable enough, yet the spade went through as if it bad only been clay, we may say the same of a piece of birch wood about two inches in diameter which was perfectly entire in the bark, yet the spade went through it with greater ease than it would have done through an apple. What appeared most sineular to us was the distinct appearance that the whole of the space betwixt the ribs and the outer and inner covering, of which we could find no more traces than we did of the deck, had been closely filled up with heather, which appeared before touching it quite fresh ; but immediately after be came a pulp. We hope to be able to give a more par ticular account of this discovery in our next ; in the meantime we may observe that it is more than probable that this vessel has been lost nearly six hundred years ago, as one of its dimensions could not have navigated the Loch of Spynie, ►nure particularly in the part wbere it has been found, after the 12th or 13th century, — Elgin Courier. With a mixed sentiment of indignation and alarm we have read in the Bury Post of last kVednesday, a narrative of certain proceedings which took place at the Norfolk county sessions, in the case of four labouring men, who had en deavoured to make others join them in a strike for wages, Of these poor men it appeared that one, by name Norgate, had earned but 2s. in the last fortnight, and that on applying to a Mr. Oldfield, who is represented to have been a farmer and overseer, for relief, Oldfield refused him any, but offered him some clay trenching at sd. a rod, w hi c h o ff er t h e app li cant acce pt e d, on condition of getting money enough in hand to buy himself some victuals. This was refused. The man was indicted for joining others in forcibly taking away a labourer of Oldfleld's Iron his work. He was found guilty Another labourer, named Mann, was also indicted and found guilty of the same offence. Thi , trans gressor stated that he had received bu , Hs. in six weeks for his labour. He applied to the saute Oldfield for "a job," and was refused. In that emergency he asked as a I ;quper fora shil ling or two to buy bread ; -Oldfielo' refused this likewise, "as he was not overseer:" from a. neighbouring farmer, however, th e pri,;on4 , r learned that he was overseer, and on re , tiriiiii,z to repeat his application for parish as istance, Oldfield would not give him a single farthing, —the brute adding, that Mann's wife might go and gain money by prostitution ! Scott, another prisoner under the same indictment, said he had no further share in the alleged riot than trying to rescue the poor men, 4 , who were not in fault, as they had neither work nor money—that Norgate had had no victuals from Monday to Wednesday," on which day he was gent to Bridewell. Overton said he was offered ls. 6d. a day by Oldfield, but could not work for such wages, having a wife and three children to sup port, on which Oldfield refused to give him any more, asserting that he gave a good minv of his men but '7s. or Bs. a-week. He further declared that he would not grant the applicants for work or relief a single penny for all the justices in the world. Well, the four transgressors were, as the report of the trial states, found guilty ; and, after an edifying commentary on their crime by the Chairman, what does the reader think was the punishment awarded by this bench of Nor folk justices ? .Three of the men were sen tenced to eighteen months' imprisonment, with hard labour ; and one poor man, whose wife was advised to save him from starving by her own infamy, was, because of his good ch arac t er , con d emne d to a capt i v i ty of only tw e l ve mon th s ! N ow, the lega l g of these unfortunate men, in striving to gain by forcible means or menaces, the co-operation of others in their own effort to procure work at better wages we hpulcl be the last to deny ; at the same time it will be recollected that the prisoners did not inflict on any man the slightest pe b xo o to d er i i l l y ou ffa h te a inn r d m ge r ; csi r n oc o uu r gm c hs a tt n a nt o i c t ebsheaivft have entered rg th o e tte n how many case i O n f t o t h the ese c( sideration if the - • ceasion ave taunted the applicants for relief from the poor-rates by reminding them that it was charity they were seeking. If the abuses of law and power have made industry unsaleable in the market, and reduced the willing labourer to the abject condition of a beggar, it becomes not those who have concurred in the establishment of such a system, or who have caused it, to reproach the class who innocently suffer under it with the disgrace to which it subjects them. The war, however, of squire and farmer against the working peasant, will not always be a series of victories on their side. It rages in Ireland, and will thus introduce, ere long, a body of poor laws. In this country it will correct and purify the code which already exists. The poor may be guilty of outrages in both islands, but they are, strictly speaking, outrages wrung out of the people by extreme wretchedness, and will never be fully put down but by a sensible dimi nution of their wants.—Times. We observe that the Court of Aldermen have again refused to receive Mr. &ales as Al derman of Portsoken Ward. There is a great principle involved here ; and it really appears to us, that the Court of Aldermen are putting an extinguisher on the right of popular elections. If the Court of Aldermen can in one case refuse to receive the man chosen by a majority of his fellow-citizens, merely because they do not like him, they may set aside all popular elections. What the character of the majority of Aldermen may be at present, it would be presumption in us to pretend to say ; but it is matter of notoriety, that it would be difficult to find in the metro polis more objectionable individuals than some 'of the body. We have only to suppose, for the sake of argument, a majority of tainted indivi duals; and in that case, what, we would ask, is there to prevent them from continuing the majority, by regularly excluding in all future elections all individuals of a character opposite to their own ?
