His Lordship's informant occupied the large ware house and office attached to No. 38, Mark-lane, and It t out the house in offices to gentlemen in business of high respectability. The door of No. 38 was necessarily kept open all day, and lately it had been 'noticed that some tradesmen brought goods of various kinds to the house, and had been robbed of them. The plan was this :—A fellow gave orders at the shops of tradesmen,and told the shopkeepers that the porter, upon delivery of the goods, should receive payment. The directiob being No. 38, Mark-lane, parties took care to be in readiness at the door, and the moment the messenger arrived with the bills of parcels they took the goods, and said they would bring down the amount. Their being another door, however, in the house, they never returned except to play similar tricks. In this way several trades men had been plundered. £l.OOO £5OO &c. &c. ived IN MONEY IMPERIAL BRAZILIAN MINING ASSOCIATION.

CONTINUATION OF WAVERLEY NO VELS. In Svo, 12inti, and 18ino, to suit former Editiwis in thew A Mr.,Hawkins, who officiated, addressed the few gentlemen who were present, by observing that the railway was not in a sufficient state to try any experiments then, and he hoped no gentleman had come there under that impression ; if so, his money should be returned. What he contemplated on the present occasion was, to explain the principles ,on which Mr. Saxton's invention was founded, and to elucidate the same by models. This invention was calculated to propel a carriage at the rate of one mile in two minutes; the railway before them, wten completed, whould be a quarter of a mile in length, which distance and back, being half a mile, he anti cipated performing in one minute. Ultimately he considered the distance from London to York might be performed in about six hours, and he did not despair of achieving, in the same way, a journey from the metropolis to Edinburgh in the spare of one open day. The present invention was a new application of leverage, and one which was rather difficult to be understood, un less put in operation. Many able engineers had fiund a dfficelty in comprehending the principle; hut he would use his best . endeavours to make himself clearly understood, and should feel happy in ans, ering any question put to him. It consisted of having ropes, one mile in length, extending along the railway, and by means of Mr. Saxton's differential pulley, it was calculated that, with the power of one horse, a carriage containing passengers to the weight of about one ton, could be propelled at the rate already stated of 30 miles an hour. It would require one horse to each mile, but whilst the carriage pro• seeded at the rate of 30 miles, the horse would only perform a distance of 150 yards; at the end of each mile fresh ropes were applied to the carriage, a fresh horse worked the second pulley, and thus it proceeded on the journey, a person being stationed at the end of each mile to effect the change of gear age. By these means it was asserted the greatest acclivity might be ascended, and the experimental railway would be so formed as to show its effect in this particul4r, part of it being on the same scale of declivity as Shooter's-hill, or one foot in ten. He next proceeded to show, by means of diagrams and models, the mode in which the propeilie g force was acquired by the newly-invented pulley, and ;hen proceeded to state that it 'was not his intention to run heavy carriages on the rail way. One ton, he thought, would be found quite sufficient, because, when they could send ton after ton at the rate of 30 miles an hour, and without aiiy delay between, carrying great weights was unneces sary. On the present plan of locomotive engines, it was indispensable that they should be formed to carry heavy weights, because the locomotive engine generally weighed ten tons; and that great weight, being in a state of agitation, wore out and damaged the road infinitely more than all the traffic that passed over. It was found also that one locomotive engine required three times as much fuel as a sta tionary engine of the same power. It was his inter tion to use horses, because o'te-horse power would be fully sufficient for his purpose; and it was found that there was no saving in using engines under six-horse power, it being as cheap to keep six horses as to work a six-horse engine. There would, in this way, be a great saving in the expense of the power; there would also be a great saving in the construction of the railway. At present a yard of railway weighs 501 b.; his would weigh less than half. At present hills are cut down, and valleys raised to make a railway; by the proposed plan this would be unnecessary. Mr. Hawkins, having concluded his lecture, an swered several inquiries made of him by gentlemen present in the most satisfactory manner, and re ceived their best wishes for his success. In the course of the conversation he mentioned that the manufacturer who had made the rails for the Com pany was now executing an order from America fur 1,000 miles of railway. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, NOV. 13. We have had a fair demand fur cotton this day ; the sales are 2 500 bags, at 9tl to 10d. for Maranhams, Bd. to 81d. for Bahi-ts, I Oil for Pernams, and Bd. to Bii for Boweds. PENANCE.—On Monday, the 21st ult., two children, one ten, the other eiizlit years old, were sent from Newcastle to Rathkeale, tta do penance for going into a Protes.ant Church to witness a funeral service performed. The unfortunate children would have actually perished on their return, the night being so extremely boisterous and wet, were it not that they were met by some bone • volent persons, who gave them refreshment and brotiAlit theta home.—Limerick Herald. On Thursday last, five gude wives, residing in Goodwin-street, Derby, presented their gude Irusb.nds with bairns, one of the tive heing favoured with twins. There were thus six b•rths in one small street in the same d ry. The mothers and babes, to the great joy of hus bands and sires, are all doing well.—D.:rby Reporter. The new novel of Trevelyan' appears to be the great favourite of the season. The story is as original and peculiar as that of the authoress's former work, A 31arriage in High Life ;' alid the interest, as in the first tale, is connected with that all-important subject—wedded life. The principal characters are a young guardian and his ward, whose happiness and good name are wrecked by the selfish prriligacy of two libertines. Scarcely any thing can exceed in overpowering interest the scenes by which tine sibgular catastrophe is brought about."—Morning Poste ARE THE PLANETS OP OUR SYSTEM IN nAMTED ?--The analogies which display a family likeness thruugheut all the system of the universe, will perhaps he more easily comprehended, if we advert for a moment to the other planets of our own system which are more immediately te i:Lin tho •phere of our own unservation. Mercury and Venus both have atmospheres, much loaded with clouds, which are manifestly a provision serving to mitigate the intense heat and Blare of the sun. We shall presently see the intimate caunection which subsists, not (.1)1y between the vegetation of our earth but also the sub • sistenee of animal life, the transmission of sound and light, nay, all the arts that tend to civilise society, and the existence of the atmosphere which we possess. Wherever atmosphere is found encircling a sphere, and supportin g upo n it clouds of vapour, we may infer that op -n such spheres there are water and dry land, vsgita tion, animal life, intelligent beings, and civilisation. This inference becomes the more inevitab!e when we find that according to the best observations, both these planets have their day and night, of nearly the same length as our own. In Mars, the outlines of continents and seas have been die coveted with perfect distinctness; it has also its atmos phere and clouds, and brilliant white spots as its poly's, which are supposed with a greet deal of probability to be snow. The general fiery aspect of its appearance is con jectured to arise from an ochery tine in the soil, not unlike our r e d sandstone districts. Its day an d n i g h t cliff•rs I , bui ours by l itt l e mute than half an hour . Th ese are ad analogies to earth, which render the idea of those three planets bring mere blanks in the solar system alto gether inconsistent with what we actually know of the ',ecunclity which teems with life, wherever air, water, beat and light are combined.... Quarterly Review. The LORD MAYOR said the offence, instead of being swindling, as Mr. Howard designated it, was a complete act of robbery, and desired, if any of the parties could be recognised, that they should be at once apprehended, without the ceremony of a warrant. Mr. Hobler informed the Lord Mayor that for merly depredations of a similar description were committed by a gang of thieves who pretended that they resided at Old Slaughter's Coffee-house, and were in the habit of leaving the shop-keepers' ser vents at the door while they made off themselves to sell the goods. The LORD MAYOR advised Mr. Howard to paste a Caution upon the walls of the passage to the cham bers, notifying to the public the danger of incrusting property to persons who were ready to receive it in that public place, and his Lordship said he had no doubt that the newspapers would make the caution general. EMIGRATION TO THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE.— Mr. Booker, one of the officers of the parish of Bishopsgare, stated to the Lord Mayor that a meet ing of the parishioners of B;shopsgate had taken place that morning upon the subject of the propo sition of the Society for the Suppression of Juvenile Vagrancy to give employment to unprotected and destitute child re n a t the - Cape of Good Hope, upon the payment of 101. per head to the Society. Dr. Russell, the rector, had officiated in the Chair, and resolutions had been unanimously passed declaratory of the hearty concurrence of the inhabi tants in the views of the Society, and their determi nation to favour so humane a project by all the means in their power. Mr. Booker's present appli cation to the Lord Mayor was, that his Lordship would order some lads who were now in the Comp ter, and who had no occupation or chance of pro curing employment, to be discharged from custody, in order that they might join 'he ship soon about to sail for the Cape of Good Hope, to which colony they had with alacrity consented to go. The LORD MAYOR—Who are to protect them when they reach that destination ? Mr. Booker replied tha. the Governor of the Cape of Good Hope was himself one of the committee, which consisted of gentlemen of the very highest character for humanity and disinterestedness. The LORD MAYOR said he must have some com munication from his Majesty's Government before he could think of consenting to give his sanction to a project which, under the authority of persons of different characters and feelings, might be made a means of exercising the most mischievous abuse. He, however, stated that he should wait upon Lord Melbourne on the subject. Mrs. Wiltshire, the wife of one of the city offi cers, was summoned before the LORD NIAYOR by a very rough-looking foreign Jew, named Adolph Joshua Bolchard, for having pinched his nose and other parts of his face, in performing which opera tion she was aided and assisted by her daughter. The Jew stated, in broken English, that he lodged in the house of the defendant, and that clean sheets had not been put upon his bed for a long time, contrary to agreement. He took the liberty to expostulate with his landlady, who instantly " flared up," called him a thief, and poured a volley of oaths [you turn, caught him by the flesh of the face, wiring it, knocked him down, double him, and, with her daughter's aid, shoved him completely our of his room, and finally out of the house. The LORD MAYOR was evidently surprised at hearing that such execution had been done by a small delicate female upon so rough a customer, and asked the former to explain the transaction. Mrs. Wiltshire said that the Jean was a person of such disagreeable habits, arid so often required clean sheets, that she had been endeavouring to get rid of him for a considerable time. He at length be came so insulting and offensive in other respects that she told him to pack up his goods and go off In stead of taking proper notice of this direction, he began to show a taste of his quality by seizing her arm in his teeth, and afterwards endeavouring to try the force of his jaws to separate one of the fingers from her hand. He concluded the attack upon her by spitting in her eye; and she, finding that resistance was so necessary, called to her daugh ter arid defended herself as w e ll as s h e could. The defendant exhibited her arm and finger, and declared that she ought to have summoned the complainant for such unmanly trearment. The LORD MAYOR said that the Jew perceived by the les,on thus given to him that English ladies didn't like biting, and he would probably be in duced, when he next made an attack upon the sex, not to do it with his teeth. MARLBOROUGH STREET. George Burley and Thomas Boyle, the two po lice constables charged a few days since with steal ing brass locks ana ortiameti's off the doors of the British Hotel, were yesterday brought up for re examination, and folly commi ted for trial. Five female paupers, all tinder the age of eighteen, were cha.ged with being disordeny, and refusing to work, in the parish workhouse of St. George, H.oiover-square. The charge against three was that they had flung the horsehair about instead of picking it. This was proved by a decrepid, deformed male inmate of the house, who appeared to have had his dignity much hurt by the contempt with which they had treated his orders. " / our Worship," said he, they picked the horsehair in a most ?indecent man ner, and actually said they didn't cure fur me nur nobody." Tt►e charge against the other two was about as clearly proved by an old beldame bearing some ana. logy to a nurse. She said that when they went tip to bed they were riotous. Mr. CHAMBERS —How do you men riotous Witness—Wt►y, they clawed one ano►her all to pieces! Mr. CHAMBERS—Who did ? Witness—Why they all did. In answer to other questions it appeared that they were making a considerable riot, and pulling one another about in sport. The mirror, spoke to their general bad conduct. Mr. CHAMBERS thought the case hail been mcwe out for neglecting and damaging the work, andsen the three to hard labour for twenty-one days each. The other two he discharged, considering that gills The defendants were ordered to find bail, for want of which they were locked up. John Roberts alias Cherry, a middle-aged man of respectable appearance, was brought before Mr. LAING for re-examination, charged by Mr. Charles Benjimin Harding, paper-manufacturer, of Bedford street, Bedford-row, Holborn, with having obtained goods under false pretences to the amount of 461. Mr. LAING—Have you any fresh charges against the pisonc-r ? Mr. Harding—Unfortunately not any that can be substantiat ed, your Worship. I can identify no less than seven of the prisoner's gang who have been for years swindling the public through bill transactions, and they have injured me to the amount of several hundred pounds. A tradesman in the oil business, residing in Blaekfriars-road, identified the prisoner, who in 1832 took a house in Drury-lane in the iron mongery line, when he obtained goods from him and several other persons to a considerable amount, and then quitted the premises clandestinely, after having been there hit a very short time. He then used the name of Cherry, of Cheshunt, and over the shop he had the names of "Roberts and Jones" Mr. Harding thought the circumstance of the prisoner having placed the false name of " Cherry, of Cheshunt," on the cart in which the goods were removed might be construed into a sufficient false pretence for prosecution. Mr. LAING said it was not; and regretted that other char ges could not be braught against him, as he was a dangerous fellow. Several persons who had been duped tinder simi lar circumstances, said it was a great pi y that he should escape so easily. Here a porter to a carpet manufacturer stated that the prisoner made a large order of his master in the name of Cherry, and di rected 'hem to be sent to the Greyhound, Smi h field, where a young man, who represented himself as Mr. Cherry's son, received the goods, and, treated him to some ale. The value of the goods was 1001. Mr. Harding said that there was some prospect of tracing " Mr. Cherry, jun.," who should most cer tainly be indicted with the prisoner and some of his associates. The office was crowded with persons who had been imposed upon by the prisoner and his gang, but so ingeniously that they became debt transactions. Mr. LAING said the prisoner was now discharged, but he was indictable for conspiracy. The prisoner then quitted the bar, and was fol lowed by a personage whose tout ensemble indicated him to be of the pettyfog fraternity, and he took partial notes of the proceedings. EXTRAORDINARY WAGER.--:On Tuesday ast an extraordinary hut very abut d feat was performed at the Swan, Clever, between two cripples of that village. It appears that a jealousy has been fur some time past existing between these worthies as to their respective strength, and as they could mower only two sound legs between them, they, after much delib , -ration, came to the novel determination of deciding which was th.- hest man by which could stand the longest upon their sound "pm," without resting. Both parties accordingly met at the above place at one o'clock, and put themselves in the duck like posture rig , eed upon, and in that position they re mained till half-past nine, arben the loser fainted away,—. Berkshire Chronicle. WIRE SOLED SIIOES.—Some time ago, Mr. Alexander Buchanan made a pair of shoes, and sent them as a present to our representative, Sir John Max well. They contain upwards of 30,000 wire springs in in the soles, which consist of 22 ply of silk leather, &c. They are very neat withal!. Sr John, waiting an op portunity to make a suitable return, did not immediately eeknowledve the receipt of them, but learning that the maker positively refused any recompen-e, he on Wednes day sent hiin a very polite letter of thanks. Sir John sap: he has worn the shoes, and will continue to wear them, and has no doubt they will be Lund among his relics. — Paisley Advt. r'aer. IMPERIAL BRAZILIAN MINING Assoc'. ATION. —The half-yearly general meeting of the proprietors of the Brazilian Mining Comp my was held yesterday at the London Tavern ; Timothy Walker, Esq., in the chair. A report was presented containing a communication from Colonel Skerrett, the agent at Gingo Seco, stating that the works were in very good condition, and the neeroes and free labourers employed thereon were healthy and the former were daily improving in moral habits. The Di rectors regretted that the Chamber of Representatives had not yet come to any dettrmination upon the proposed reduction of the duty on gold, although strongly recom mended to do so by the Provincial Assembly cf Minas Ge , exes.
