Our City Correspondent says it We are all in the greate anxiety in the City owing to a eft number of reports in circulation. The Attwood steamer has arrived from Rotterdam ; it was also reported that the Romania, from Ostend was in the river. At present we have the following reports :•—That the people o f O stend had risen on • the garrison (which consisted of five hundred young recruits) and disarmed them ; also that they were fighting at Bruges and along the road to Brussels.— Another account states that the Dutch troops had got the entire possession of Brussels on Saturday, but the people of Brussels having rallied again on Sunday, some desperate fighting took place, and Brussels was on fire in several places. These are the reports on 'Change at present, but it appears certain that there was some fighting at Ostend and Bruges. An other report says that the Prince of ORANGE was shot, but it will not be long before the true state of things will be known." Extract of a private letter received by express, dated Brussels, Monday, Sept. 27 : " I have just time to inform you that the King's troops have been entirely defeated with very severe loss, and are retreating towards Matinee in the greatest confusion. The city is now in the possession of the Garde Bourgeoise— !he greatest confusion exists, and the English are all 'caving. A number of lives have been lost on both sides, and the streets were barricaded in every direction, as the People were determined to fight to the last against their °PPressors. Ostend, Bruges, and other parts are i❑ a state of revolt." Dutch Papers to the 29th inst. insinuate ra ther than state, that the King's troops have been net quite so decided or so prompt in their suc cess as might have been anticipated. The in surgents, they add,—and the fact must be gall and wormwood to the Dutch—showed , the most determined resistance ; they have thus com pletely given a new turn to affairs : THE HAGUE, SEFT. 26. The Stant: Courant gives the followingofficial report Accounts hav e a l ready been received that on the 24th t . — he upper part of the city of Bruasele, the Parks, the three Palaces, &c., were occupied by the King's troops, and that all the gates and outlets were in their possession. However, there was fighting the whole day in the interior of the city. We have now the following accounts from Brussels, dated the 25th, at eleven in the morning. The preceding night has passed over quietly. The firing in the Park and its neighbourhood has be gan later than usual. At ten o'clock three persons came to the head-quarters, declaring that all authority was at an end; that there Were no longer any c hi efs; that M. D'Hoogvprat re quested a *tate conduct, in order to come and consult on the means of restoring tranquillity, for which purpose he requested that the fire might cease on both aides at eleven o'clock, which was granted. Th e t roops h ave b e h ave d w ith extraordinary bravery." We can add that the fighting continued the whole of Thursd a y ; that it was suspended during the night; but that the canhonade re-commenced on Friday morning, at /41 4 W eight o'clock, and continued the whole day ; that the cannonede was suspended during the following night, end rnecommenced on Saturday morning, and continued till the "ePatlea from M. D'Hoogvorst came to Prince Fre t What was the result of their mission is not positively 'mown; but it is said that when M. Yvoy, Aide-de-camp to Prince Frederick, who arrived here to•day about noon, left Brussels yesterday, betw een one an d two o ' clock, t h e fighting was continued. But little is yet known of the particulars, but all re- Parts agree that the resistance of the insurgents had been most desperate. Front all the windows, nay, even f rom the Cellars, the *o can y fired on the tr oo p s . Th ey h ave f ew or taken non, the most of those whiat they possessed were at the entrance of the 'troops on 'Thursday. The thy must have sustained infinite damage. Many houses are wholly demolished. On Friday howitzers were employed against the city, letter from Vilvorde say that on that day Brussels was on fire in several places. In order to make the defence more obstinate, the in surgent, had made co tntnunications between the adjoining e') so that, w h en driven from one, they retreated to the next. It is certain that there are disciplined trocpe among the insurgents ; the number is stated at 2 or VW' It is g ene rally affirmed , th at most of them are Frenchmen, who ave from time to time come to Brussels clandestinely, end without the knowledge of the French Government. It is also affirmed that the well-known Juan Van Halen, Who co mmanded u n d er t h e Spanish General Mina, and enerll Milinet, an o ld F rench officer, who has for many sars en joyed the right s o f h ospitality in the Netherlands, atvl the chief command over the insurgents, and direct all tileir Operations. The bravery of the Netherland troops is very brilliant, both the Dutch and the Belgians display the greatest bravery, and perform their duty with indefatigable zeal. General Schuermans is slightly wounded, and also General Constant de Rebrcque. We also hear that the brave Major Cramex, of the artillery, is killed. The number of the killed is paid not to be great, considering the circum stances; but the wounded are very numeroas. A number of prisoners have arrived at Antwerp, most of them appear to be of the lower class, they are to be con fided on board of ships in the Scheldt. A battalion of infantry left Antwerp yesterday for Brussels, whither some powder waggons have also been sent. AMSTERDAM SEPT. 27. Actual Debt, 2% per cent. Deferved Debt Amort Syndic, 4'4 per cent. B2 to 84 Ditto, ditto, 3% per cent 65% to 67 1 (Amsterdam Courant, Tuesday, Sept. 28.) Moult, Sam 27.—We learn from Ghent, that Messrs. Vleminckx and ?Cmlei on their return from Lille, where they are said to have had a conference with M. de Potter, were arrested. Mr. BROUGHAM'S remarks on Parliamentary Reform, at the dinner given to him and Lord MORPETH, on Monday last, at Sheffield, a report of which will be found in another column, are well worthy serious attention. The Hon. and Learned Gentleman has ai,nounced his intention—if not anticipated by the Duke of WELLINGTON, which we think far from un likely—of bringing forward the question of Reform early in the ensuing Session. His advocacy, however, of this great public question will, he hints, be restricted, for the present, to the following points. He will propose, in the first place, to extend tin; Elective Franchise to Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, and Leeds; secondly, to insist that the polls be taken on the same day in every part of the county ; and thirdly, to effect a considerable change in the state of the representation in Scotland, more especially in 'Glasgow. There is nothing to be objected to these propositions, except that they do not go half far enough. Mr. BROUGHAM himself seems to be aware of this, and antici pates the objection by observing " people will say that this is a mock reform, or that it is no reform at all ; but let them only say that it, is a slight improvement, or a bettering of the present system and he would not care. He was a prac tical man, and knew that a grand and practical effect would be produced by it in the im provement of the Parliamentary constitu tion." Certainly every step towards a full and perfect purification of the representative system is a practical benefit, but only so far as it clears the way to a further advance. If a long halt is to follow, if when the people cry out for a more extended reform, they are to be told by their rulers that they are ungrate ful and contumacious, seeing that by Mr. BROUGHAM'S exertions they have got all they could reasonably have expected, then—we have no hesitation in saying it—the Hon. and Learned Gentleman's proposition will have done more harm than good. The addition of a few Members more or less from Yorkshire, Lancashire, and Scotland, many of whom may be Ministerial, will work no very perceptible change in the constitution of the House of Commons. It is a tub thrown to a whale—a mere numerical advantage—nothing more. Suppose out of the eight new English Members, five vote for Government, and the other three so far from being unanimous, are divided in their opinions—in this case what be nefit will the country have secured by their in troduction into Parliament ? Manchester, to be sure, will be the better for it, and so will Leeds, and Sheffield, and Birmingham, but still the country at large will be just where it was before. As regards Scotland, we cannot, until we know more of Mr. BROUGHAM'S plans, ven ture an opinion on the subject, hut are some how apprehensive:that any half alteration of the representative system of that country, will ra ther tend to increase, than diminish Ministerial influence. We are no visionary reformers ; we object to the ballot, annual Parliaments, unlimited suffrages, and all crude theories of that sort ; but still we think that some change, some great decided change in the representation, is impera tively necessary. This change, to produce the proper conciliating effect, must be made promptly. Made it must be, we all know this : far better then that it should come readily, than reluctantly, from Government : far better that. it should be given by, than extorted from, them. Let the people who pay .the taxes, have their proper share in determining whom they will elect to debate on the expediency of modifying, or reducing those taxes. Let their voice be heard, and their in fluence in the elections be felt ; let them, in short, be electors not nominally, but in actual fact. This, to a certain extent, is the case at present ; but how limited, compared with what it should be, is the power of the people to return their own Members Look at the rotten boroughs and those provincial anomalies which presume to call themselves boroughs ! Look at Old Sarum, which elects two M. P.'s to superintend the in terests of its four square stones and pot-house ; look at Gatton, which elects two more to protect its pig-stye from domestic or foreign invasion ; look at a hundred other places of equal im portance to the national interests, each of which has the privilege of electing its one or two Members, without the people having the slightest voice in the matter ; look, we repeat, at these absurd deformities in our representation, and then let common sense decide whether or not they should be continued. By our accounts from Hungary, we learn the arrival of the Emperor and Empress of Aus- TIUA, accompanied by the CROWN PRINCE, at Preshurg, on the 13th instant. On the follow ing day his MAJESTY addressed' the following Speech, in Latin, at the opening of the Diet : " Since the commencement of our reign, we have mani. feated an incessant anxiety to promote the glory and welfare of the nation entrusted to us by God, not only availing our selves of every opportunity that presented itself to us, but also of every occasion which it was in our power to create. The same motive has induced us, after the example of our great ammstors, to cause our beloved first-born to be crowned during our life. " It was our wish that this holy bond, which more closely unites the heir apparent to the kingdom, might be come a pledge of our paternal love, as well for our son as for the nation so dear to us ; it was, therefore, a source of the greater satisfaction to us to be the creator and witness of that just pleasure with which the rejoicings that are to accompany this ancient and legitimate usage, fill the noble breast of every true Hungarian ; the more anxious our wish is that the exertions of our life, which is indeed but mortal, may bear immortal fruit. " Animated by those feelings, we sincerely congratulate ourselves in the conviction that this our son will be the heir, not only of our dominions, but also of our sincere affection for you. " Seeking the splendour of his throne in the public wel fare, his wealth in the happiness of his people, and the vigour of his administration in the sanctity of ti e laws, he will be the protector and champion of your liberties and of the ancient Constitution. " The wish to secure your welfare against all the ca sualties of time, demands that we should consult with you on those subjects best calculated for the promotion of so salutary an object. We have, therefore, not only sum. maned the present Diet within the legal delay, but have also fixed and determined the day of the succeeding, in order that among other matters in faithful observance of the laws, to consult with our faithful States, in the way prescribed by those laws, on the subject of a subsidy of recruits. " It is true we are in the enjoyment of peace, and hepe by our indefatigable care long to maintain it; - but as the dignity of the empire, the tranquillity of the people, and the glory and safety of both find their support in the bra• very, number, and discipline of experienced warriors, we consider it among our most important duties as Sovereign, to prepare in a legal way the means best calculated for attaining those ends. " We do not consider it necessary, on this occasion, again to awaken the generous readiness of our States, and their prudent care for the future, well convinced of their constancy, fidelity, their noble generosity, and the lively zeal for the protection of the beloved father-land of the Monarchy in general, which, under every variety of cir cumstance, and in imitation of the example of their valiant ancestors, have been so nobly manifested, also in our time, by this our beloved nation. " These and other our gracious intentions we have al ready pronounced in our Royal Letters of Convocation, and we have again experienced, by numberless valued and never-to-be-forgotten testimonials, what an abundance of fideity and devotion to their King and father, lives in the breasts of the Hungarians. " In the act, therefore, of delivering our Royal propo sitions, we open the Diet with the tranquillizing convic tion that your wisdom, beloved States, your affection for your King and country, will erect a new memorial of an cient Hungarian fidelity, in complete concord with the glory of the nation, and that confidence which we have reposed in your hearts. " We assure you, all and each of you, of our Imperial and Royal grace and clemency. " FRANCIS." The Express from Paris, for which we are indebted to the Times of this morning, contains some particulars respecting an animated discus sion which took place on Monday in the Cham ber of Deputies, on the report of the Special Commissioners, arraigning for high treason the Ex-Ministers. On the President putting the question, " The Chamber of Deputies accuses of high treason M. DE POLIGNAC, &c. &C.," a ballot was taken, when it was found that 244 voted for the question, and 47 against it. Sin gularly enough the Gazelle de France, in which the debate of the Chamber is contained, gives the speeches of those who declaimed in favour of POLIGNAC at length, and cuts short (at lei* we suppose so) those who spoke against him. Among the former we find the name of M. BER• RYER, who set up for the Prince a very ingenious sophism. Thisgentleman, who argues pretty much in the style of a special pleader, contended that by the Charter, the inviolability of the KING, and the responsibility of his Ministers, went toge ther and were mutually dependent on each other ; that, therefore, as the people had disclaimed the inviolability of the KING, by punishing him with dethronement, so also should they disclaim, on the same principle of justice, the responsibi lity of his Ministers. This logic was, of course, unsuccessful. ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR, THIS DAY. This being Michaelmas•day, according to ancient custom a Common Hall was held, for the purpose of electing a Chief Magistrate of the City of London for the year ensuing. The Loan MAYOR and Corporatinn, after attending Divine Service at St. Lawrence's Church, walked in pro. cession to (luildhall. On their entrance into the Hall they were loudly cheered by the Livery, a vast number of whom were in attendance, and great interest appeared to manifest itself, it being generally believed that a strong opposition would be made to the election of Mr. Aldertnan Key, who stood next in rotation. Alderman Key was loudly cheered as he entered the Hall. Sir Peter Laurie was also received with cheers, not, however, unaccompanied with considerable groaning. Proclamation having been made by the Town Clerk, The RECORDER came forward and said, by virtue of a precept from the Lord Mayor, the livery were assembled to elect a fit and proper person to fill the office of Chief Magistrate fir the year ensuing. The worthy Common Set jeant would read over the names of the Aldermen that had not passed the Chair. _ _ . The COMMON SRRJEANT then read the natnes, a n d they were about to be put to the Livery for their •election, when Mr. FIRMLY HUNT stepped forward. He was received with considerable cheering by some, but with hisses and groans by the majority of those assembled. The noise continued for a length of time, amidst loud cries of "Off, off!" Mr. HUNT—There is plenty of time, my friends, and I shall have the honour of addressing you before you proceed to the election of Lord Mayor. The noise and confusion here became greater than b e _ fore. In a few minutes _ _ _ Mr. HUNT again stood forward, and said he was quite willing to wait any length of time. He hoped the Livery were not afraid to hear what he was about to say. H e Wu about to speak to the eligibility of the candidates. The noise and confusion here became greater than ever, when Mr. Sheriff MARSHALL begged as a particular favour that the Livery would give Mr. Hunt and every other person who wished to address them a patient hearing. i t was the particular wish of the Sheriffs to act strictly im partial.--(Cheers. Mr. HUNT at length succeeded in getting a hearing, He began by stating that he was no party-man.—(Loud cries of" Yes you are—you are a Radical.")—Mr. Hunt, with much difficulty, and amidst great confusion, proceeded to advocate the claim of Mr. Ald. Key, whom he represented as being in every way worthy of the confidence of his fellow-citizens. He (Mr. Hunt) was not one of those who were likely to have their opinions warped by the foul slander of individuals. The vilest calumny had been heaped upon Mr. Alderman Key, both by anony mous slanderers, and a person named Sherwin—he had been attacked in the most dastardly and un derhand manner, and if there was any one then present who dare publicly reiterate the charges, be (Mr. IL) called upon him to come forward and do so.—(Cheers.) —But be was convinced no one dare make such an attempt. The expression on the Alderman's appearance in the Hall was sufficient to silence all his slanderers...,-(Cheels-) Mr. Hunt then went on to state that Alderman Key was an independent man, and a fit and proper person to be elected to the Civic Chair. The names of Aldermen Key, Laurie, Ferebrother, Winchester, and Copeland, were then successively put in nomination. The name of Alderman Key was received with hums. The cheers for Sir Peter Laurie were almost lost in the hisses and groans that accompanied them. The &Min , stated that the nomination of the Livery had fallen on John Key, Esq.. Alderman and Stationer, and Wm. Taylor Copeland, Esq., Alderman and Gold smith. Mr. Fonntsv, a Liveryman, demanded a poll on behalf of Sir Peter Untie. After some discussion, however, Mr. Forrest withdrew his demand, and the Sheriffs retired to the Court of Aldermen, to report on whom the nomination had fallen. In about half an hour The Lord Mayor and (Accra returned into the Han, when the Recorder announced that John Key, Esq. had been duly elected to till the office of Lord Mayor of the City of London for the ensuing year. This announce ment was received with great cheering. The Luau Marna elect returned thanks. Kennington common, previous to the erection of a new drop in iloraemonger-lane, was the place of exe cution for the county of Surrey. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE-(THIS DAY.) FROM LLOYD'S.

This morning a meeting, pursuant to a requisition signed by between 300 and 400 inhabit int householders of this pariah, was held, to take into consideration the pre sent very large amount of local taxation, and especially as it referred to the New Police establishment, and to con sider the best means of diminishing the same. The meeting was called at eleven, for twelve o'clock; but, as is usual, a great many arrived at the former hour, and became impatient at what they considered a delay long before the real time appointed. About half past eleven Mr. Key, one of the Churchwardens, entered the vestry-room, which was much crowded, and said that as the church had been recently cleaned at a very consi derable expence, and with their (the parishioners) money, he thought it would be advisable immediately.to adjourn to the large room, at the Parochial School, in Ainwell street, and suggested the propriety of immediately going there and commence the business of the day. Here a call for the " Church ! Church !" was vociferated from every corner of the room, and a scene of great con, fusion commenced. As soon as there was anything like order, it was proposed that T. Key, Esq. do take the Chair. Mr. T. WATictrrs immediately rose, and proposed an adjournment to the school-room, and Mr. Itluluny se conded it. Here the uproar became much greater than before, and counter•propcsitions were moved and seconded by various parties, all of which however the Chairman declined to put, as he said it was his determination, for various reasons, that the meeting should not be held in the church. On hearing this several speakers at once mounted the seats, all anxious to address the Chairman ; come contending that the church lad on all former occasions been allowed to them for meetings of all parochial busi ness, and that it was the most proper place, while others considered that this being in a great measure what might partly be termed a political meeting, it was the most improper place ; a third party took a middle course, and appealed to the conciliatory disposition of the Chairman, assuring him (in which all parties appeared unanimous) that if he persisted in his determination it would be the first act of his official capacity that had not given the parishioners great satisfaction and himself much credit, and begged him to give way to the unanimous wish of the meeting. The CHAIRMAN then rose and said, it was his wish in every respect to oblige the parishioners generally, and it was always painful when he considered it his duty to act otherwise, and though he had been determined for se• veral reasons not to use the church on this occasion, yet as it appeared so generally to be the wish of the meeting he conceded, and proposed that they adjourn to the church. —(llere was a burst of uproar.)—Having taken his seat in the reading-desk, he briefly stated the nature of the business which had called them together, and begged whatever difference of opinion there might be, yet that every one who chose to address them might be patiently heard. - SEIM, Eq., the vestry clerk, read the minutes of the two last vestries, which gave great satisfaction. - Warm-, Esq., solicitor, entered into the more immediate bushiest of the day, and was speaking when we left. As soon as it was ascertained that the Worthy Church. warden hal changed his opinion, nearly 2,000 people, ;mostly of very respectable appearance, entered the Church, and the must perfect order and decorum was observed. THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O' CL O CK. Nothing is talked of in the City but the affairs of Brussels, and the public still remain in a great state of uncertainty in regard to the capture of the above town by the Dutch troops. The express front Paris this morning communicates the despatch received from the telegraph of Lille, stating that Brussels was still block aded, and the country people were arming to proceed to its relief. This telegraphic despatch must no doubt be con sidered as official ; therefore, it appears that the Dutch troops must have been driven out of the upper part of the town, or thought proper to retreat, owing to the obstinate resistance of the people. Lille being only one day's journey from Brussels or Ghent, information can be received daily ; therefore it is evident that Brussels was in possession of the Belgians on Sunday. We are now anxiously waiting the arrivv.l of the Dutch steamer, which is hourly expected ; also the Ostend steamer, which is expected this evening. Report says that the steamer, from Margate to Ostend, was warned off by a boat from Ostend. Should this be true, some disturbances must have happened there. Livicaroot, Sxrr. 27.—The demand for British Plan tation Sugar has again been limited, the sales of the week were 430 Wads., and prices are reckoned lower. Coffee keeps steady, and the sales of the week reached 230 tierces, chiefly Jamaica, at full prices. Cotton continues dull, and the sales this week were only 7,820 bags. Tobacco remains steady. We have had but few arrivals of Pine Timber this week, but the demand for the article has rather slacked during the past fortnight. max ruNDs.

We are all in the greatest anxiety in the City owing to a number of reports in circulation. The Attwood steamer has arrived from Rotterdam ; it was also reported that the Romania, from Ostend, was in the river. At pre. sent we have the following reports :—That the people of Ostend had risen on the garrison (which consisted of five hundred young recruits) and disarmed them ; also that they were fighting at Bruges and along the road to Brussels. Another account states that the' Dutch troops had got the entire possession of Mussels on Saturday, but the people of Brussels having rallied again on Sunday, some despera's fighting took place, and Brussels was on fire in several places. These are the reporta on 'Change at present, but it ap pears certain that there was come fighting at Ostend and Bruges. Another report says that the Prince of Orange was shot, but it will not be long before the true state of thingslwill be known, as the Ostend steamer is expected hourly. With all these reports the Consul Market con tinues heavy. Consols are 87i for the account. In the Foreign Market scarce any thing doing ; prices much the same as yesterday. TWO O'CLOCX. The Ostend steamer has just arrived. It brings ac counts that the Dutch troops were driven out of Brussels on Monday. Brussels was on fire in five or six places after desperate fighting. Liege was in possession of the insurgents. The powder magazine was blown up ; five or sit hundred persons lost their lives. Prince Frederick was wounded. THREE 0' CL 0 C.K. Console, 87k.

LITERATURE. TALES OF OTHER DAYS.—toNnox, 1830. This is a lively readable little book, consisting of a collection of short tales, chiefly of a legen dary character,, embellished with some humorous engravings from the pencil of the celebrated George Cruickshank. The tales are told for the most part in a sprightly manner, and convince us that the author is a young man of talent us well as information. The best legend in the hook is, we think, the one entitled " Friar Rush," the engraving attached to which is of itself sufficient to cause a hearty laugh. We have no space for extracts. ARRIVALS.

COOKERY AND CONFECTIONARY.---It 19 not alone to the excellence and novelty of his receipts that the distinguished success of Mr. Dotaty's newly-published " Cook's Dictionary, and Family Manual" may be as cribed, inasmuch as a portion of the value of the work is to be found in its plan, by which any one may, in an in stant, possess himself of, whatever information may be re quired in the preparation of dinner and dessert. This great advantage is obtained by alphabetical arrangement and copiousness of instruction, which supersede the neve,- sity of toiling through an intricate index, and wandering hunt one receipt to another. The author is the celebrates! cook of the Thatched-house Tavern, St. Jantes's•atrect, and his book bids fair to become the "sole 'oracle of English and Foreign Cookery and Coufeotionary.

That Byron, in his boyhood, was possessed of lively sensibilities, is sufficiently clear ; that he enjoyed the advantage of indulging his humour and temper without restraint, is not disputable ; and that his natural temperament made him sen sible in no ordinary degree to the beauties of nature, is also abundantly manifest in all his pro ductions ; but it is surprising that this admire+ tion of the beauties of nature is but an ingre dient in Byron's poetry, and not its most re. markable characteristic. Deep feelings of ais , satisfaction and disappointment are far snore ob vious ; they constitute ) indeed, the very spirit of his works, and a spirit of such qualities is the least of all likely to have arisen from the con.; templation of magnificent nature, or to have beets inspired by studying her storms or Serenity for dissatisfaction and disappointment are the offspring of moral experience, and have no natural association with the forms of exter nal things. The habit of associating morose sentiments with any particular kind of scenery, only shows that the sources of the sullenness arose in similar visible circumstances. It is from these premises I would infer, that the seeds of Byron's misanthropic tendencies were implanted during the " silent rages" of his childhood' end that the effect of mountain scenery, which con.; tinned so strong upon him after he left Scotland, producing the sentiments with which he has im bued his heroes in the wild circumstances in which he places them, was mere reminiscence:. and association. For although the sullen tone of his mind was not fully brought out until he wrote " Childs Harold," it is yet evident from his " flours of Idleness," that he was tuned to thi t key before he went abroad. The dark colouring of his mind was plainly imbibed in a mountali nous region, from sombre heaths, anti in the midst of rudeness and grandeur. He had no taste for more cheerful images, and there are neither rural objects nor villagery in the sco , ' he describes, but only loneness and the solenia nity of mountains.— Gales Lift of Byron. FRASCATI'B.—AI tours to Paris will tIOWs more than ever, become the rage among the English, the , young and inexperienced of both sexes should be guerdtri from the many snares to which they will be exposed in the French metropolis. The vice of play assume; there its most dangerous, because most seductive, aspect; and the ruin of many families has originated in the Parisian Saloons. The author of FRASC,ATI'S hes felt this truth bitterly; and his book, which contains the most remark- able disclosures ever made in a work of fiction, cannot fail to benefit permanently such of our countrymen as may sojourn in Paris, where the work has caused a powerful sensation not unmixed with malignant feeling on the part of those designing characters of both sexes, who see in its pages the ruin of their vile occupation. GRAND WDITR FAST.. or TUX JEWS reit TUE YEAR 5691.—Monday being one of the strictest days in the Hebrew persuasion, it was observed with great solemnity. During the whole day the Jews neither eta nor drank, but continued at the Synagogues. As soon as the stars appeared the Hymn of Death was repeated three times over by the congregation, at the end of which a trumpet was sounded, authorising them to break the fast. On Friday next the Grand Tabernacle Feast commencer, which will terminate on the following Friday. During the eight days the most sumptuous entertainments will be given. EACH IN HIS HENRY the Fourth was travelling through a small town, several Deputies came to meet him, in order to welcome him. When one of them had began his speech he was interrupted by an ass, which stood twenty paces off, and began to bray. " Gentlemen," said the km:, " Jet each speak in his turn, if you please—otherwise I cannot understand you." IRISH PUGNACITY.---At the trial of a butcher of Downham, in Lancashire, on Saturday List, for stealing a cow, there WAS some difficulty in identifying the skin : but the owner swore boldly to it, from some hurts that were in it. " Ile was sure it was his cow, fur she was an Irish cow, and had been jiyhtina the day before she ►was stolen." On Monday afternoon last, about five o'clock, her Royal Highness the Duchess IM BEERS arrived at the Royal Hotel in this town, from Liverpool, accompanied by the Countess or Doom's, and the Count Eis Mrs- N►nn. Having letters of introduction to BENJAMIN IlzywAan, Req., they visited several manufaetories, companied by that gentleman, on Tuesday marning—pari ticularly the patent reed manufactory of Mears. &tsar, and Co., the card manufactory of Mr. J. C. Dm, in Dale-street, the warehouse of Mr. Eimoso %MUT, awl finally, the shop of Mr. kiferrittirmu, where they inspected various patterns and specimens of English silks, and made some purchases. About half-past one o'clock, they set off from the Royal Hotel to Km!diatom! Hall, Derbyshire, the seat of Lord Scaasnm.s. Her Royal Highness travelled under the assumed title of the Marquise or ROSNY, until her exalted rank was discovered. The ?arty, we understand, left Chatsworth on Eriday morning ►ast, and passed through Busting, Macclesfield, Knutafurd, aic., to Liverpool, where they arrived the same evening, and remained till Monday. They succeeded in preserving a strict incognito until after their departure from Liverpool.-•-Manchester Courier. On Thursday morning last, as the North Devon coach was passing by the pour-bouts at 'I Falcon, in the vicinity Of Taunton, near which are soma cottages, the attention of the passengers was arrested by a crowd of persons collected round the door of one of then', in which a man of the name of SKARIA resided. l'he coachman pulled up, and the passengers descended to as certain the cause. Orr entering the cottage they saw ono of the children weltering in its blood, with ice threat dread fully cut. The horrible deed bad been committed by the tither himself, and it is said be expressed his intention of murdering all his family, and concluding the dreedful litisi nese by his own destruction, if he hall not been detected.
