In order lyetol"s fear, which ha rrasse d we continually, I 'go 10 80lt -court, and never to quit it again till ( No. 1 72,807 .) I had found out some one to furnish me with a truss which should be efficient for its purpose even in these seasons of coughing ; as I was going I amused myself in reading Mr. Carpenter's Political Letter ; in this paper 1 read the advertisement of Mr. Coles, Truss maker of Charing-cross : and as I had tried seven or eight before, I at once sent for Mr. Coles ; and the result has been that my complaint is as completely removed as if I had never known any thing of the kind: and could I have forgotten the precept of the venerable Daddy Burdett, and more especially the fate of the Duke of Bedford, I should have thrown away the truss months ago. Oh ! how rejoiced was I when I felt that I should be able to stand at my ease for the hours that I destined for the belabouring of the Whigs. I could not (if I bad had a cough) with out the aid of Mr. Coles, have given them the four hours and a half which were worth more to them (if they turn them to good account) than a!I the rest of their lives. I should have mentioned this matter before, but my April cough was nearly gone be fore Mr. Coles had done the truss, and I was not visited with another till late in September ; and I wanted a fair trial before I spoke of this matter. I have now had the trial, and it would be a very shameful neglect of my duty towards my neighbour, for me not to tell the public that I find the remedy perfect, and that 1 can now scarcely perceive, whether with or without a cough, the smallest signs of my ever having bad such a complaint. But am I not here, in doing bare justice to Mr. Coles, doing him an injury, by driving from his shop the tax and tithe eaters, who will have a " prejudice" that is a villany against hire for the good he has done to me? No; bang it; they like their worthless lives too well tiir that. However, my sensible readers, pay you (if you should need it) attention to what I have said ; and let the tithe and tax-eaters creep along through life, with all the twitchings and achings of this harassing complaint, and under all the pains and pe nalties inflicted on them by the awkward, heavy, cum brous, and still inefficient things, which bungling media nics put round their bodies. One thing bear in mind : and that is, that this is a matter with which surgeons and physicians have nothing to do, any more than they have with the providing us with suitable shoes or coats. As Mr. Chevalier told me the complaint is truly me chanical ; and the application of the remedy must depend on the mechanic solely, just as much as the fitting of a coat must depend on the tailor. Here, however, more cleverness is required: the mechanic must be able to judge well of the degree of force rtqaired ; and he must have great ability in causing the pressure to bear in a proper manner. Tt.e moment I heard Mr. Coles speak upon the subject I was sure he was the man : his observations showed a knowledge of his business ; and the result has most amply verified my opinion. I never saw Mr. Coles before, and I have never seen him since, except to call and thank him. What I have here said of him is but justice, which I do with very great pleasure, while as to the rest, I am only discharging a duty to the public in general, and to my readers in particular. I add this piece of advice to people in London, not to write for a truss any sooner than for a coat or a pair of breeches ; not to plague a surgeon to order one ; but to go to the mechanic in person, and let him fit the force and form to the necessity of the case. WILLIAM COBBETT. TO MR. COLES. have been wearing Trusses of different kinds for the last thirty years, but never found one of them to keep up the Rupture effectually, until thirteen months since I purchased one of your patent; and although my Rupture came down in a most frightful manner then, it has never come down since, nor have I scarcely the ap pearance of ever having had such a complaint. At my age, 77 year., I do not intend to leave off wearing a Truss, and I know too well the importance of your in genious contrivance to keep the world in ignorance of it. JAMES SHARE, Commander, R.N. 28th May, 1832. 19, Bury-street, Bloomsbury. Colonel Faancklin informs those who have Ruptures, that he has been wearing Trusses thirty years, and he never met with but one individual who was master of the com plaint. He has hkewise au elder brother, a Colonel in the Hon. East India Company's service who has worn a similar kind of Truss for many years, who can sty the same. Mr. Coles, of Charing-cross, is the individual alluded to. Blackheath, July 16, 1832. Sir,—Having the m,stortune to Rupture myself several years ago, I purchased one of Salmon's self-adjusting Tiu4se., which, although it afforded me considerable re lief, did not entirely keep the Rupture in its place, par ticularly when I had to stand fur any length of time; I felt a disagreeable knawiug pain, attended with a bearing down of the hernia so that I was frequently unable to wear the truss. In mentioning to a friend what I suf fered, he strongly advised me to try one of your patent, which I did, and found to my great comfort that it kept up the Rupture effectually, without producing any of those painful sensations which I had endured while wearing the ball and socket truss, and I can now stand or walk for hours together without the least pain or inconveni ence, in fact as well as though I never had been ruptured. I send you this statement to make what use of it you please. I am, Sir, Your obedient servant, WILLIAM MATTHEWS, Quarter-Master, Royal Artillery. Woolwich, Sept. 12, 1832. A gentleman at Lloyd's Coffee House has also sent Mr. Coles a similar testimonial of his case which had been of thirty years standing. " Colonel Green hesitates not to acknow!edge that the Trusses furnished to him by Mr. Coles has effectually put a s'op to his malady. He cannot say that of any other Truss which he had worn for the last thirty yeas. 3, Wyndham-place, Montague. square, "August 27, 1833." TO MR. COLES. Sir,—While serving the office of first lieutenant of a line-of-battle ship off Toulon, in 1809, I had the mis• fortune, through extreme fatigue, to bring on a rupture. Since that period 1 have tried every description of truss which came to my knowledge, but I never succeeded in supporting the hernia effectually until 1831, when I purchased two f your patent trusses; and it is but justice to own that no descent has occured since I have worn them, and I freely give you liberty to publish this testi monial in favour of your excellent invention. I am, Sir, yours obediently, J. P. BAKER, Commander, R.N. 28, Duke-st., Manchester-square. Oct. 17, 1832. Sir,—Seven years ago I applied to you to stop a rup ture, which I have laboured und,r upwards of fifty years, which was as large as a man's head, which you accomplished with apparent ease, when no pers3n that I had previously consulted, was able to stop it a single day. I am now eighty-six, and am entirely free from any external appear. :ince of the complaint. My obj ct in writing this testi monial is, not merely to express my gratitude for the service you have rendered me, but to guard my fellow sufferers against the use of imperfect trusses. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, Oct. 21, 1832. G. CARPENTER, 24, Regent-st. Sir,—Having worn trusses 20 years, and suffered the most excruciating pain of strangulated hernia, which oc curred while wearing my truss, and without a doubt should have lost my life but far the great skill and atten tion paid me by Mr. Mayo in the operation. And, not withstanding I had the beet medical aid, and, as I sup posed, the best trusses that could be procured, my rupture continually increased, and escaped from every truss that I had employed until I had yours; and I am happy to state, that I now feel perfectly comfortable, and more secure, under every position of the body, than at any period even before or since I underwent the operation ; and I feel well assured that such accident would never have taken pLce, had I then worn a truss on the principle of your patent. I am, Sir, with gratitude, 70, Great Titchfield-st., Mary- Yours, &c. JOHN QUICK. lebone, June 14,1833. A surgeon of the Royal Navy about sixty years of age, who had been wearing trusses of several different kinds, employed one of Coles's manufacture, and ere he had half worn it out, threw it aside and left his trusses in London, while he made a tour on the Continent. Being at sea and exposed to severe ,veather, a set.•sickness brought on the complaint, and he «as compelled a second time to wear his truss, and after wearing it about 12 months, has again been perfectly cured, and does not wear a tiuss. Sir Astley Cooper knows a case which had been get ting worse for thirty years, and which had escaped a hundred times in a day, and does not escape now from Coles's truss. The above is one-fourth part of the Gadte of Health, utt Ruptures, price one penny. LONDON, FRIDAY EVENING. SEPTEMBER 27, 1833. CONTRACT FOR OATS.

HAPPY JERRY. As many of our readers may have made an ac quaintance with the mandril called " Happy Jerry," exhibited at Exeter 'Change and the King's Mews, and, we believe, afterwards consigned to the Surrey Zoological Gardens, they will probably find the fol lowing extracts, detailing his habits and propensities, entertaining :—" He would have done anything for gin and water, and the love of drink became so strong that he would have made any sacrifice. Per haps some theorists will adduce this common vice as an argument for the common nature of men and monkeys. We have heard of another animal of this kind, possessed of a curious propensity, which might serve as an additional proof towards the same end; he was kept at large by dgentleman, who kept also a pack of harriers, and to enjoy either the noise or the sport would travel to an eminence whenever the hounds threw off. This love for field sports had, however, nearly proved tatal. The hounds one day got upon Jerry's trail on his return home, and he was only saved by a tree occurring opportunely. Superior intelligence was, on this occasion, so far displayed that Jerry never afterwards enjoyed hare hunting. He is described to have been docile to his keepers, but easily exasperated by strangers; and among other accomplishments had been taught to drink, sling, and smoke tobacco. In the first h e deli g hted; but I rather think the latter was not such a favourite, a . nd a bribe of gin and water wa s generally promised before its performance. His cage was furnished with a small but strong arm chair, into which, when ordered, he would seat him self with great gravity, and await further orders. Ail his manoeuvres were performed with great slow ness and composure. His keeper having lighted the pipe, presented it to him; he inspected it minutely, sometimes feeling it with his finger, as if to know if lighted, before inserting it in his mouth. It was then introduced almost up to the bowl, but with that part generally down wards,and it was retained without any appearance of smoke for some minutes, during which time the an completely filled his cheek pouches and capacious mouth, and would then exhale a volume, filing his cage from mouth, nose, and sometimes even the ears. He generally finished with gin and water, which was handed to him in a goblet; this h e gras p e d i n one h an d , and was not long in discussing. He was possessed of enormous strength. Two men could with difficulty withdraw the end of a ro p e h e one d ay se i zed, though they were assisted by the resistance of their feet upon the base of his cage. lie was fed chiefly on vegetables, and preferred them cooked; but when he visited Windsor, where he was exhibited to his late Ma jesty, he is said to have dined upon hashed venison with no Ordinary degree of avidity."—The Natu ralises Library. By the Nassau Royal Gazette, it appears that the Holt. Patrick Brown, and the Hon. an i Rev. William Hepworth, have, by authority of his Majesty, been restored to their seats and rank in the Council of the 13ahamiis, from which they were suspended by the late Governor, Sir James Carmichael Smyth. It would seem, from some of the Paris letters, that the Duchess of B±rry, notwithstanding the lesson she has received lately in France, has meditated the renewal of her politic il manoeuvres, and that she had fixed upon the duchy of Modena as her head-quartets for purpose. The Duke of Modena, however, has e days' sail o f hi s d om i n i ons, upon wh i ch he requeste d received ve d a hint that Toulon is within a few the Duchess to proceed on her journey. Even in Austria, as we collect from the same accounts, the presence of the Carlists appears to be far from acceptable, as the Emperor, to avoid giving umbrage to France, has notified to M. de Chateaubriand that he cannot be allowed to play his p ran k s there any longer, and b e h as , in con sequence, refus e d to grant passports to seve ral Carlists who were a b out starting on a pilgrimage to Prague to celebrate the bi r thd ay o f the Duke of Bordeaux.

Their whole duty consists in re ceiving the lists and making such alterations as accidental errors had rendered necessary. The officer, of whole conduct they had yesterday complained, produced his list this morning, and assured the revising barristers that he deeply regretted that a mistake about the borough and the county lists should have made him omit to deliver the former in proper time. The following we understand to he a correct account of the number of voters now upon the lists of the borough : TOWER HAMLETS. Original List. Revised Lies.

On the Bth instant Si; David Erskine, of Dry burgh, persuaded the persons residing at Melrose Abbey to try close to the foundation of the clois-, ters whether there were not inscriptions. ON digging down about ten inches, they came to a line of stone coffins, on which were several swords and crosses engraved, but two more remarkable than the rest, a husband and wife lying from east to west ; on the husband's coffin on the right were the hilt and guard of a sword elegantly sculptured, but the blade went under the foundation of the Abbey. On the wife's was a small cross, denoting a Christian of the early ages, and the following inscription "-f- Beatrix, spouse of Robert Fraser." The rest of the inscription was bid under the foundation. Melrose Abbey was originally erected of wood at Old Melrose (Meul Ross, a bare promontary), not a vestige of which remains save the foundation, on which the present house belonging to Lockhart Elliot, Esq., stands; it was a second time erectea at Red Abbey Stead, near Newstead, from which the village takes its name; and lastly, it was con structed where the present magnificent ruin is still to be seen at Little Fordell (or the dell of the ford). It is probable that these stone coffins have been re moved from the Abbey yard at Red Abbey Stead,antl placed under the foundation of the new Abbey. If this be the case the coffins must be of very great an tiquity, as that Abbey was founded by David I. in 1136, and the mark of the small cross before Beatrix, on one of the coffins, denotes an early Christian. That the other coffins must have held persons of h'gh rank is denoted by swords and crosses on their lids, on one of which we found hic jacit inscribed; but this coffin was lying from south to north, and the rest of the inscription was hid under the foundation of the Abbey. This side of the cloister runs from south to north. There was a very ancient family of the name of Fraser in Mackerstoun parish. There is also one family with the very ancient Saxon Christian name of Wester, in St. Beswell's parish ; but the family are cer tainly Norman, from their armorial bearing, three strawberries ( freze, a strawberry ); but the stone coffin rather denotes Saxons than Normans, as the Saxons almost always buried in stone coffins; so those stone coffins must be of very great antiquity indeed. St. Moden, a priest and saint, converted the Saxons to Christianity prior. to the year 522. He made apos tolical excursions as far as Dumbarton and Loch gerry ; he had a cell at Dryburgh, but repeatedly went as far as Falkirk (the real name of which is Wallkirk, the Highlanders almost invariably chang ing the F into a V or W), where St. Moden's name is still venerated. The lettering on this very an cient Fraser monument are fine Roman characters, only the E is made like CE dipi hong, and every ' line has a circle round it.—Kelso Chronicle. LONDON PICKPOCKETS. I was walking one day down into the City, an d stopped for a moment to look at some pic uses in a window in St. Paul's Churchyard. Before I had lime to say Jack Robinson half-v-dozen fellows kept pushing close round me, and at last I felt a little tug at my pocket, and discovered that my purse had disappeared like lightning. I seized on the fellow who was standing next me, and intended at all events to have the pleasure of breaking every bone in his skin, when a genteel-looking young fellow came up, and says, " You've had a loss, I fear, Sir ?" " Loss!" says I, "to he sure I have; and this little owld rascal here denies he has got my purse, though he has been clue to my pocket this last quarter of an hour." " May I beg,' says the gentleman again, " may I beg to inquire if your loss is very serious ?" " Faith it's more than I can afford, especially for so hole satisfaction as only thrashing this little owld thief here." " How much, may I ask, Sir ? I assure you lam deeply inte rested by your misfortune." " Why, then, there was exactly fourteen sovereigns •in gold and a ten pound Batik of England note." " Are you aware of the number of the note, so as to stop at the Bank ?" " Not I," said I, " I should riot know it from Adam." " Then, Sir," replied my compas sionate friend, " I am very much obliged to you for your information, for that - rascal Jim Scraggs, that forked your cloy, swore there was nothing but five sovereigns. Trere are three of us in the lay, and it's just eight pounds a-piece." Before I had time to double my fist and knock his brains out on the spot he had disappeared up some dark alley. In the meantime a great crowd had collected, and the man I had seized by the collar waited very patiently till he saw a policeman, and immediately gave me in charge for an assault. On looking at the man he really seemed a very quiet respectable sort of person, and I was sorry for having mistaken him for a thief. I apologized to him as well as I could, and offered him any compensation he chose. He swore it was a hard thing for a gentleman, though unfortunately I educ e d in circumstances,t obe accused of robbery in the public streets, but at :last consented to accept a douceur of twenty pounds. Luckily I was known at a shop in the neighbourhood, where I went and borrowed the requisite funds. The moment he got the money into his hands, he said, " Now, don't you go telling Bill Filch or Jun Scraggs about this here trifle, as it's quite a private transaction 'tween ourselves—but I must be off for my share of the twenty-foul—good bye ;" so that the three gentle men made a very good thing of it, though the vil lains have never thought of making up for it by the smallest present.—Col. 0' Loony, in Nights at Mess. —(Blackwood.)

The lona Club, which was lately instituted for he purpose of illustrating the history and antiquities of the Island and Islands of Scotland, held a Meet ing or -Fite on Friday, the 6th instant, on the Island of lona. Arrangements had been so well concerted with the steam-boats plying on the west coast for the conveyance of passengers, that many members of the Club, with their friends, were enabled to attend from the South of Scotland, and even from England, without inconvenience. Great numbers came from the neighbouring island of Mull; and Mr. Campbell, of Dunstaffnage, and Mr. M'Neill, Collonsay, brought with them large parties of their friends in their yachts and pleasure-boats. Such was the interest taken by the countrypeople in the proceedings of the Club that on the morning of Friday about three thousand persons had assembled, from Mull, Ulva, and the adjacent islands, and the coast of Morven. The members of the club held a meeting within the walls of the Cathedral, and, after several new candidates were balloted for and admitted members, proceeded to examine the various interesting remains of antiquity in this most venerable seat of religion and learning. The Secretary, who had obtained permission from the Duke of Argyll, the President of th e Cl u b, i n t h e handsomer manner, to search, and, when necessary, to excavate the ground, for relics of antiquity calculated to throw light on the objects of the institution, made a clear and satisfactory report of the discoveries that had been made. Among those present on this very in teresting occasion were—the Very Reverend Prin cipal Baird, Mr. Campbell, of Dutistaffnage, Mr. Donald Gregory, the Secretary of the Club, and Mr Arch , bald M'Neill and Mr. James Robertson, Counsellors ; Mr. Aynsworth, of Clanmagherry ; Mr. Forbes M'Neill, of Collonsay; Captain Ro bertson, 92d Highlanders; Captain M'Ketaie, of Gruinord ; Major Maclaine, of the Royals ; the Reverend algal Campbell, of Iona; the Reverend Donald Campbell, of Kilfinichen ; Mr. D. 0. Hill, Secretary to the Scottish Academy of Painting,&c.; Mr. N. Lamont, &c. &c. The party were highly gra tified with the result of their examinations, as well as with the picturesque appearance of the monastic ruins around them, and the romantic beauties of the island of lona, and the neighbouring shores of Mull. The country people were entertained with a variety of Highland games, into which they entered with enthusiasm and spirit. The boat-races, in particu lar, both rowing and sailing, were keenly contested by numerous competitors, and conducted with ad mirable skill. Fortunately the day, which had been cloudy and rather unpropitious in the morning, cleared up beautifully towards noon. In the evening, about sixty ladies and gentlemen sat down to an excellent dinner, under a spacious tent, pro vided fur the occasion, Mr. Campbell, of Dunstaff nage, in the chair. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts were given, together with many others pro- The following is an interesting account of the chase of a gigantic specimen of the red ourang_ outang :—" A boat party, under the command of Mes , rs. Craygvman and Fish, officers of the brig Mary Anne Sophia, having landed to procure water at a place called Ramboom, near Touraman, on the • north-west coast of Sumatra, on a spot where there was much cultivated ground and but few trees, dis covered on one of them a gigantic animal of the monkey tribe. On the approaei of the party he came to the ground, and when pursued sought re fuge in another tree at some distance, exhibiting, as he moved, the appearance of a tall man-like figure covered with shining brown hair, walking erect, with a waddling gait, but sometimes accelerating his mo tion with his hands, and occasionally impelling him self forward with the bough of a tree. His motion on the ground was plainly not his natural mode of pro hsgfirimecsksa i mi o t n ow , nag f s o st r iroe e we v s e a, n nidn w v h oa e rcd n i lel a ar s tt s ion i s t t e ;s d ti itm bz a.atse h n i se h as a sg n ai d rhy s t yt o oa r sne, a ei hi strength. On being driven to a small clump he ga!ned by one spring a very lofty branch, and bounded from one branch to another with the ease :Ind alacrity of another monkey. Had the country been covered with wood it would have been almost impossible to prevent his escape, as his mode of travelling from one tree to another is described to be as rapid as the progress of a swift horse. Even irridst the few trees that were on the spot his movements were so quick that it was very difficult olAtigtwettted aim, and it was only by cutting down one tree after another that his pursuers, by confining him within a very limited range, were enabled to destroy him by several successive shots, some of which penetrated his body and wounded his viscera. Having received five balls, his exer tions relaxed, and, reclining exhausted on one of the branches of a tree, he vomited a consider able quantity of blood. The ammunition of the hunters being by this time expended, they were obliged to fell the tree in order to obtain him, and did this in full confidence that his power was so far gone that they could secure him without trouble ; but were astonished, as the tree was falling, to see him effect his retreat to an other with apparently undiminished vigour. In fact, they were obliged to cut down all the trees before they could drive him to combat his enemies on the ground, against whom he still exhibited sur prising strength and agility, although be was at length overpowered by numbers, and destroyed by the thrusts of spears, and the blows of stories and other missiles. When nearly in a dying state he seized a spear made of a stipple wood, which would have withstood the strength of the stoutest man, and shivered it in pieces; in the words of the nar rator, he broke it as if it had been a carrot. It is stated by those who aided in his death, that the human-like expression of his countenance, and piteous manner of placing his hands over his wounds, distressed their feelings, and almost made them question the nature of the act they were committing. When dead, bath natives and Europeans contem ;dated his figure with amazement. His stature, at the least computation, was upwards of six feet."— The Naturalist's Library. ANCIENT URNS FOUND. A few weeks ago. some workmen employed by the Earl of Seafielo's farester were diggin g in a gravel pit, about a mile and a half west of Cullen house, in the woods, when one of them untxpec redly came on an urn. Supposing it contained treasure, and being anxious to secure it for himself, instead of clearing away the gravel, he stuck his pick into the side. It contained bones in a very decayed state. When the nature of its contents was ascertained, the urn was deliberately dug ow. It was about five feet below the surface, and covered with a large flat stone. The colour of the composition is red, very much resembling a modern tile or brick, with some streaks of a black material running through it on the inside. It is about 13 inches deep, tapering or bulging out gradually from the mouth and bottom towards the middle, where he diameter is about ten inches. It is of exceed ingly j plain work, and i n s h ape not unlike the n' earthe ars used for holding butter. In the same pit, about three yards from this urn, was found another, like the former, covered with a large flat stone, and containing decayed bones. It was also similar in every other respect, except in its fragility, which was so great, that the workmen were unable to dig it out without breaking. It had an em bossed ring round its bugle, and on the ring were rude carvings in straight lines crossing each other obliquely. Before being put in, the bones seemed to have been burnt, and several pieces of charcoal were found among them. They were much cal cined; but one of them retained much of its original form, and gas evidently a jawbone. The urns were given over to the charge of Mr. Anderson, of Cullen House, in whose possession they continued for some time, and are now in the Banff Museum. The pit, before being broken up, was part of a small round eminence covered with heath and trees. Directly over the first-found urn there stood a large Cif -tree. The undoubted fact of a battle having been fought in the 10th century, either on this spot or its immediate vicinity, between an army of in vading Danes, who landed at the burn mouth of Cullen, and a Scots army headed by King Indulfus, authorizes the conclusion that these urns contained the remains of some Scottish warriors fallen in the action. Buchannan gives an account of this battle, and re la:es, that while it was being keenly contested on both sides, the Danes were surprised and put to flight by Greme and Dunbar suddenly arriving with forces from the Lothians, and attacking the enemy in the rear. Being unacquainted with the localities, the Danes, he says, took refuge in a "woody Indulfus was slain after the conflict. About a furlong or so from the hillock where the urns were tb,g up there is another and larger one. It consisted principally of stories, now cairied out of it. This hillock formerly went under the name of the " King's Cairn," and latterly under that of "Boulie's Cairn ;" and it is alluded to both by tradition and statistical writers as the tumulus of King Indulfus. There are two other recent occurrences, probably having some connection with tho,etimes. One is the dis covery of a stone coffin, in the moss of Cullen, by Mr. Taylor, at Barnyards. It contained bones, and is conjectured to have been constructed by the Danes as a receptacle for the remains of some of their fallen chiefs. The other is the lately ascertained existence of a huge brander, or raft of wood, at the burn mouth of Cullen. It is embedded at a emisiderable depth below the sand and stones on the sea shore; and from the waves washing away the superincumbent stones, parts of it are now and then laid bare, and one larg e plank, soft and spongy, was altogether taken up.--Scotch Paper. It is a curious fact that the s2ainen of Boulogne hal fort told, 10 hours before it occurred, the storm which brake out ou the 31st of August last. In the morning of that day they observed an odd smell from the sea, and an unusual agitation at its surface, which was the more re rnark3ble as there b!ew no gale at the time to occasion They inferred from these circumstances that a storm cs?s raging about 40 leauges off to the west, and that it would alight on Boulogne in the evening. • Four cast-away seam e n, to the Union, of Woodbrid ge , wrec k e d in .., b t h e e h' i n a g te i ug ltu rric toe, were kindly received on board the s teamer Prince Fre &rick, of Hull.
