MR. GEORGE ROBINS is directed to SELL by Au Lion, at the London Mart, on To.moanovv, July 18, at Twelve, and PEREMPTORILY. A SINGULARLY ELIGIBLE FREEHOLD PROPERTY, THE KNOWLE HOUSE ESTATE, one of the most delightful properties throughout the county of Surrey, situate near to THE VILLAGE OF CRANLEY, within nine miles of the excellent market towns of Guildford, Horsham, and Godalming. The house is a superior and very gen. tlemanly residence; and nothing can be in better keeping than the arrangement throughout. THE TASTE OF A MAN OF FASHION is conspicuous in every department. It is placed on an agreeable eminence, commanding very picturesque views of the rich sur rounding country; approached by a carriage -drive through the park-like grounds; adorned by young and thriving plantations. The pleasure.grounds are extensive, planted with the choicest shrubs and ornamented by a fountain. The residence has only been erected a few years, presenting a very imposing and " ELEGANT ELEVATION," and possessing every accommodation for a family of distinction, wit hout being inconveniently large. Its internal decorations dis pia!, great tact, and it is in a perfect state for immediate occupation. There are five capital bed-chambers, independent of sleeping-rooms for servants; an elegant drawing-room and library; a spacious dining-room, finished IN OAK IN THE ELIZABETHAN STYLE. The doritestic otlieeillpare admirably arranged and well secluded. A very elegant conservatory and col”nade adorn the two principal fronts. The court-yard, placed at a convenient distance, includes stabling fer seven horses, two coach houses, harness and sleeping_ rooms, and-adjoining are buildings necessary for the occupation of the grounds around the house, and an ice-house. The kitchen garden is extensive, inclosed by high walls, containing graperies and hot houses. There is a residence for the gardener, forming the lodge at the entrance from the village, a gamekeeper's cottage, and several other cottages on the property. The estate comprises SIX HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN ACRES OF VERY GOOD CONVERTIBLE LAND, of which nearly FIFTY ACRES ARE WOODLAND. It is divided into three principle farms, let to highly respectable tenants at mod.rrata r,nts ; together with THE MANORS OF KNOW LE AND HOLDHURST, AND PLENTY OF PHEASANTS, PARTRIDGES, AND HARES. The distance from London may at present be accomplished by railway to Woking, whence a branch to Guilford is shortly to be made, which will leave only nine miles to be posted. It can be viewed until the sale ; and particulars may be had at the White Hart, Guildford; King's Head, Horsham; George and King'. Arms, Godalmlng; the Auction Mart; of Messrs. Finch and Ncate, solicitors, Lincoln's Inn-fields ; and in Covent garden. IN DERBYSHIRE. The CUTTHORPE ESTATE, with a RESPECTABLE RESI. DENCE, and 193 ACRES of EXCELLENT LAND, within a RING-FENCE, two-and-a-half miles from Chesterfield and the Railway Station, and one mile from the village of Newbold. MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed, by the Executors of the last survivor of the elder branch of the Heathcote family (the Rev. Cornelius Heathcote Reaston Rodes), to OFFER to PUBLIC COMPETITION, at the Angel Hotel, Chesterfield, on SATURDAY NEXT, July 20, at Twelve for One punctually, in One Lot, A VERY DESIRABLE FREEHOLD ESTATE, offering a capital exchange for Three per Cents. at par, to a very secure investment in a more safe and solid tenure. It will easily occur that " terra firma" is the substitute. Next to this, it is important to a purchaser to select a favourable county, superior land, respectable tenants, and (though last, not least) low tithe and poor-rates. These are a combination difficult to find merged in one property, but THE CUTTHORPE ESTATE puts in AN UNDISPUTED TITLE TO rHE WHOLE. The Mansion is somewhat old-fashioned. Its antiquity will ac count for this; but, in the olden times comfort was more in re quest than architects award to modern buildings. It is within two-and-a-half short miles of the RESPECTABLE TOWN OF CHESTERFIELD. There are gardens and pleasure-grounds quite ample. There is a pretty terrace-walk, and a fish-pond abundantly stocked. In days of yore it was the residence of THE HEATHCOTE FAMILY, a name honoured for Its great respectability, and one that does not yield in a single attribute that can adorn high character to any other throughout the kingdom. The abode possesses every ac. commodation a gentleman retiring from the busy scenes of mercan. tile pursuits, or a yeoman of high standing can desire, with offices of every description. There are TWO CHIEF FARMS, 193 a. Oa. 21p., WITH A ROADSIDE PUBLIC.HOUSE. The Rents, which are most punctually paid, amount to 2861. a year. The tenants are unexceptionable, the land lies exceedingly eom. pact, and A STREAMLET PASSES THROUGH IT, refreshing the meadows when it is needful. The town of Ches. terfield is a CHIEF STATION ON THE NORTH MIDLAND RAILWAY. It is the best market for corn throughout the district, and all the principal fairs for cattle are held there. The turnpike.road to it and to Bakewell passes through the property. The Coal and Iron-stone under the Estate is considerable. Game may be preserved to some extent, as it joins THE DUKE OF DEVONSHIRE'S PRESERVES, and is not far from the Moors, where good shooting can be ob tained. The contiguous waters afford excellent trout-fishing. The country around is exceedingly picturesque, and extends to all the interesting objects of a neighbourhood distinguished by its su perior occupants, with famed Chatsworth within a short drive, and Sheffield only twelve miles off.

The capital markets of Coventry, Leicester, Birmingham, and Warwick are easily reached. The Coventry Canal and several turnpike.roads run through the Estate, and it is now within half an hour's drive of the principal stations on the LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM AND MIDLAND COUN TIES RAILWAYS, thus bringing it within five hours' journey of London. THE TRENT VALLEY RAILWAY, which is intended to pass close to, and have a station on or near this Estate, will connect Nuneaton with the London and Birming. ham, the Grand Junction, and the London and Holyhead Rail ways, and independently of causing all the traffic to and from the North of England and Scotland, and Ireland, to pass through Nun. eaton, will facilitate the transit of the manufactures of Nuneaton, as well as the agricultural and mineral produce of the Estate, to every pact of the three kingdoms. It is in the midst of the Ather. stone, and within easy distances of the Melton and Warwickshire Hunts; and there is good fishing in the river Anker and the neighbourhood.

He has stated to them that, were it urgently required, the Houses, and a certain number of committee-rooms, and other offices, might be prepared for occupation at the commencement of the year 1846 ; but your Committee do not feel themselves justified in affirming that such occupation could take place without inconvenience to the Members, or impediment to the further progress and satisfactory completion of the building ; and they think it right to observe, that the general arrangements for ventillation cannot be completed till the commencement of the year 1847. Your Committee have examined the Speaker, the Chrk of the House, and the Sergeant-at-Arms, as - to various alterations which have been lately proposed in the interior arrangements of the House of Commons, and of some portions of the builtling immediately—adjoiniitg; and have to report that Mr. Barry will be able to adopt several valuable suggestions which the experience of the officers of the House has enabled them to offer, without . any increase of the expenditure already authorised. Your Committee have examined various parties as to the course hitherto adopted by Mr. Barry, with reference to alterations of the interior arrangements shown in the plan approved by Committees of both Houses in 1836. They impute no blame to Mr. Barry for that course. and have every reasan to believe that all the alterations hitherto made have conduced to the convenience and general effect of the building ; but, looking to the mis apprehension that appears to have prevailed as to these proceedings hitherto, they are prepared to recommend that, in future, Mr. Barry should make a half-yearly re port of the progress of the works to the Commissioners of Woods and Forests ; and should also submit to that Board any alterations which may hereafter be deemed advisable, and accompany such report with plans of the alterations proposed. Your Committee further recommend that, as several alterations, entailing more or less expense, have recently been sanctioned by the Government, the Chief Commis sioner of Woods shall, at the commencement of the next session of Parliament, lay upon the table of the House of Commons a statement of the total estimated cost of the building, according to the latest plan approved. Your Committee also suggest that a plan prepared by Mr. Barry under their direction, and exhibiting the pre sent state of the building, and the alterations adopted up to the present time, shall be signed by the Chief Com missioner of Woods, and deposited in the libraries of both Houses.

REVIVAL OF REPEAL IN THE UNITED STATES.— The imprisonment of O'Connell has revived the Repeal meet= ings with us. Probably, since the last steamer brought the news, about 5,000 dollars or more have been collected from the Irish to help to pay the fine. In two nights, in New York, about 1,500 dollars were collected and accounted for— the amount unaccounted for uncertain. Yet Repeal agitation in the United States cannot last—it is on its last legs. The denunciations of the whole South by the O'Connell men, are the cause of the decay.—New York Herald. SUDDEN DEATH OF AN ENGLISHWOMAN.—CALAIS, JULY 14.—Mrs. Wright, 60 years of age, and her husband came from Boulogne on Wednesday last, to see their grand daughter at school. After spending the evening there in good spirits, on returning to the hotel she felt unwell, entered a shop, seated herself, and almost instantly expired. Medical men soon attended, but could do no good. She and her hus band had dined at the Hotel de Gendve, and were to have slept there. The landlord, however, refused admittance to the corpse. For the credit of the French, it ought to be stated that Mr. Chapius, who keeps the hotel, is an Italian, and whose superstition probably overmatched his humanity.

DEVONPORT, JULY 13.—THE ST. VINCENT, 120.—Sir David Milne, the Port Admiral at Devonport, has struck his flag on board the Sylph tender, and has hoisted it on board the St. Vincent, 120; Captain Rowley, in Plymouth Sound. Or ders were issued on Saturday morning that the morning and evening gun is to be fired from this ship. Thus our uniform statement respecting the St. Vincent is verified, and those of our contemporaries proved to be unfounded. The St. Vin cent •was never ordered on foreign service, nor was such an order ever contemplated. The Indu, 78, lately paid off at Devonport, will come out of dock to-day: We mentioned a fortnight since that she was to be fitted as an advanced . ship. She is preferred to the Malabar. She is a very fine ship, and her late officers and crew give her an excellent character. It is said she stows 70 tuns of water more than the Albion, 90. The Emerald tender, which arrived from Portsmouth on the 11th, with the men belonging to the St. Vincent, who were left behind when that ship sailed, returned to Ports mouth on the 12th, with supernumeraries for the Coiling wood. A survey of seamen and marines takes place at the Royal Naval Hospital, Stonehouse, this day. DOCKYARD.—The following have been superannuated during the past week :—Richard Hunt and Francis Cann, shipwrights, on 241. etch ; George Frood, Stonehouse, la, bourer, on 17/. ; and George Harrison, of a mooring lighter, on 20/. per annum. ROYAL MARINES. The following promotions and appointments have taken place in the Royal Marine corps, dated the 12th inst.:— To be Captain-Ist Lieutenant Peter Trant Murray Payne, of the Chatham division; and appointed to Plymouth division, vice Brevet-Major Mends, deceased. To be First Lieutenant-2d Lieutenant George Drury, of the Portsmouth division, and appointed to the Chatham division, vice Payne. Secend Lieutenant John William Comm to the artillery companies of the corps. QUOTED PRICES OF ENGLISSI WOOL.—It not .un frequently happens that the quoted prices of English wool at Leeds and Bradford are actually lower than the prices quoted for the same woo l w h en so ld a t th e Lei cester wool fairs. The cause of this is, that a usage exists at Leicester, which has grown into a rule of the fair, of making a return or drawback on the part of the seller ; so that the price actually paid is less than the nominal and published price. It seems that at the last fair, on the 26th ult., an increased draw back was asked for by some of the buyers ; whilst the Hon. Mr. Wilson and Mr. Chapman stoutly protested against any drawb ac k at a ll , say i ng t h at i t was a childish practice, and advocating its abolition. In consequence of their refusal to make the drawback, they did not sell their wool. It is evident that the practice which these gentlemen opposed cannot have the slightest effect on the price actually paid for the wool; if the seller knows he has to make a drawback, he will, of course, ask just so much the more in the first instance for his wool, and, therefore, the drawback might be abolished without making the differe nce o f one fart hi ng e i t h er t o b uyer or seller, whilst it had th e a d van t a ge of making the pub lished quotationi of prices correct and consistent, instead of being incorrect and puzzling,..—Leeds Mercury. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE.—W OOLWICII, JULY 15. — The Black Eagle steam-vessel, Commander S. B. Cook, has been placed under orders to proceed to Antwerp, tc embark her Majesty the Queen Dowager, and her Ma jesty's suite, on the 23d inst., on the return of the Royal party from the Conti nent . It i s ex p ec t e d th e Q ueen D o wager will land at Woolwich. The members of the Board of Admiralty contemplate visiting Woolwich dockyard to - morrow. Th e Comet steam-vessel was c ommissioned to-day at Woolwich, by Lieute nant William Prettyman (1823). The Light ning steam-vessel, Master W. Roberts, and the Monkey steam-vessel, Master W. Bryant, received on board this morning the baggage of two companies of the Royal Artillery, and to-morrow morning Major Wright's company, 7th battalion, under orders for Newfoundland, and Captain Dacre's company, sth battalion, under orders for Quebec, will embark in these vessels for a passage. to Chatham, where they will embark in the Apollo troop-ship for a passage to their respective desti nations. Captain Dacres is at present at Newfoundland. and will proceed with his company to Quebec, having been recently promoted from Captain Flude's company, under orders to return home, after nine years' service at Newfoundland. FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Monday Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Spotted Dog, High-street, Poplar, on the body of Joseph Good, aged twenty-eight, a foreman on board the Royal mai: steam-packet the Thames, re cently arrived from the West Indies. Joseph Farrer, another foreman, stated that whilst he was employed in taking off the floats from one of th, paddle-wheels, ne saw the deceased, who was in a state of intoxication, come across the deck of the vessel and stand upon the sponson of the paddle box, where witness was at work. He had not been there above a minute, when by some means his foot slipped and he fell from a height of eight feet into the water and immediately sank. The drags were instantly procured, but the tid e runn i ng up at the t i me. upwards of half airbour elapsed before the body could be recovered. Mr. Bains, a surgeon, of Poplar, was promptly in attendance, and for tvi o hours and :a half used every means to restore animation without effect. The man had but a few minutes previously to the occurrence sent a message on shore for his wife to come on board to him, and she was on the point of embarking in the boat when the accident took 'lace. The ju r y re t urne d a ver di ct of " Accidental death. ' DEATH OF THE EARL. OF KINTORE.—WE regra to say that this nobleman died on Thursday evening, at his residence at Keith-hall. His Lordship has, since the melan choly events that have lately taken place in his family, been in a depressed state of mind. This affected his health, and last season he relinquished, his darling amusement—fox hunting, for which he was celebrated in this and the neigh bouring counties for many years, and sought to recruit his constitution in the milder air of the Continent. He re turned some time ago, and for a short time had been trying the benefit of the spas of Strathpeffer, but without any ad vantage. The immediate cause of his Lordship's death, we understand, to have been an injury that he had received in the chase, many years ago, and which, although partially cured, had left effects from which his Lordship never alto gether recovered. His Lordship was a ccoun t e d th e b o ld es t huntsman of the day, and a letter which, some months ago, appeared in our columns, evinces the ardour for the field that animated him, even after he was unequal to the boisterous. task. This devotion to the chase formed his Lordship's ex ternal character, and by that, many were apt to judge him. But few knew the "pearl of price" that was contained within. Few noblemen can boast of equal kind-heartedness and generosity. Hi s tenants idolized him, and, to our knowledge, many a one will now miss the kind hand that, unknown to them, supplied their wants and distributed un sparingly the gifts which Providence bad assigned to him, without permitting it ever to come to light by whom the means were supplied. His Lordship has left two sons by his second Marriage, one of whom, a minor, succeeds him in the title and family possessions. ilia Lordship was in his 50th year.-46erdica Commissions by Hi 3 Royal Highness the Lard Warden of the Stann — aries.

WILLIAM FIMESTER, builder, Glasgow, July 23, and Aug. 13, at two, at the chambers of Wilson and Leighton, Glasgow. STRAND THEATRE. On Mo day a new play, from Boz's popular work of " Martin Chuzzlewit," was produced for the first time at the Strand Theatre. The first scenes did not attract much applause from the house; but as the drama pro- ceeded, a livelier spirit seemed to be infused into the performers, which was greatly increased by the appro bation that now proceeded from all sides. The conclu sion of the first act was the seizure of the roaring lions by the old Blue Dragon, which was well supported by the acting of Messrs. Searle and Roberts, who main tained their characters with great spirit throughout the piece. The first scene of the second act, also exhibiting the death of Anthony Chuzzlewit, was well sustained by Messrs. W. -Searle and Attwood. Mrs. Gamp's tea party Also cansed great amusement, especially where she quarrels with her " blessed Betsy Prig." In fact. the whole - performance was extremely well sustained. SURREY THEATRE. Monday the performance commenced with Bellini's beautiful opera of La Sonnambula, supported by Miss Romer, Miss Betts, Miss Pearson, together with Messrs. Leffler, D. W. King (his first appearance in London), and E. L. Hine. We believe, with the exception of Mr. King, there is - little of novelty in the cast, but this ex ception we are inclined to look upon as an addition likely to prove of some value to the enterprising manager. The opera was received throughout with applause. The performance was Ciitidluded with (for the 13th time) the new melo-aramatic and aquatic spectacle, entitled The MOuntain Cataract, LORD WODEROUSE AND MR.- WODEHOUSE. The family of Wodehouse is, we believe, an ancient and honourable one in the county of Norfolk. We appreciate this distinction, and are willing to give it its full weight and importance. At the same time we are afraid—and we hope the remark will not be thought invidious—we are afraid. from some recent circumstances, that their appearance in Parliament is not quite equal to their figure in the peerage. Without the least wish to say anything against the Noble Lord who sits in the Upper House, or the Hon. Member who represents the county of Norfolk' in the Lower, we cannot help remarking, that what is called temper does not appear to be the distinguishing characteristic of the Wodehouse family. Lord Wodehouse and Mr. Wodehouse are honour able men, in aristocratic language ; very goOd sort of men in the ordinary way of speaking. Lord Wodehouse toa made so handsome an apology to our correspondent the other day for his animadversions upon him in the House, that we should be: really going against our feelings to make a single ill-natured observation upon the mere slip ..of the tongue that. hisd.ordship was betrayer) into on that occasion. Still, in all good-will, and in perfect good humour, we will tender a respectful piece of advice. It is, we say, unlucky that Lord Wodehouse and Mr. Wodehouse should both, within so very short a space of time, have made in their respective places in their respective Houses such ex traordinary slips of the tongue as they have done. It is a curious coincidence, and an unfortunate coincidence, that both in one week should have got into two exactly similar scrapes. There was nothing out of the way in the mistake that. Lord Wodehouse made with respect to our correspon dent ; it was a mistake, and there was an end of it ; and Lord Wodehouse acknowledged it. But that Mr. Wodehouse should, just a week after, make an onset upon the character of a Member of the House, and should have to apologise for it, elevates the business into the rank of decided oddness; and the affair takes the authorised position and place of- a singular coincidence. Lord Wodehouse and Mr. Wodeheuse, and Mr. Wodehouse and Lord Wodehouse, being so-very little heard of generally, and then firing off in succession so soon one after the other, is a curious circumstance. They say it never rains but it pours. The curtain draws ap, and enter Lord Wodehouse and Mr. Wodehouse, each reproaching and each apologising with great volubility. But Mr. Wodehouse's is much the more unfortunate mistake of the two. The Hon. Member might so easily have known on the slightest inquiry what kind of report the one affecting Mr. Wakley's character was; that it was an utterly un• founded one, and that it was regularly decided to be such by a tribunal which should be considered an impartial one—an English court of justice. A single question asked about the matter referred to would have put Mr. Wodehouse in posses sion of this fact ; in which case it would have been impossi ble that he could have made the insinuation he did. We will do Mr. Wodehouse, at any rate, the justice to think this. He, we believe, only made the mistake of levelling an insinuation on a subject about which he knew nothing, and had never asked a single question to discover what the truth was. He was in what is vulgarly called a rage ; he was determined to say something cutting about Mr. Wakley ; an old trumpery report came into his head, which he thought would serve this purpose, and out with it accordingly. Such heedlessness and puerility, of course, tell much more against the Hon. Member who makes such an in sinuation, than against the person who is the object of it. It is a most fatal mistake for the person who makes the charge. What is the immediate effect? He has to ap o l o gi se directly, forthwith, on the very spot, for the attack. The assertion he makes dies still-born; it vanishes as soon as it is made. He has to eat his own words before the whole House, and to confess that he ought not to have said them, and to admit that what he has said or insinuated was utterly wrong and false. He is instantly in a most humiliating position, and appears as a criminal at the bar, instead of an accuser. All this takes place on the spot, and the only good he gets by it afterwards, is to be remembered as having once done a very silly thing, and being supposed therefore, prospectively, capable of doing silly things again. This is all a man gets by giving way to a momentary fit of ill-humour, and making an insinuation for which he has no authority. Mr. Wodehouse is not a man who aims at any great Parliamentary eminence, or who has any statesmanlike career before him. We do not know that this mistake, or twenty others besides, would do him very much harm in this point of view. Nobody, however, likes to be thought a blunderer; and we suppose the Hon. Mem ber for Norfolk does not ; and; therefore, we will advise the Hon. Member to be more careful before he makes such attacks in future. It is a great pity when men who are honourable and unobjectionable on the whole, will give way to temper, and say whatever comes into their heads : and with this observation we will take our leave for the present of Lord Wodehouse and Mr. Wodehouse.—Times. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE in SALFORD. SALFORD, MONDAY.—An exceedingly destructive fire, in volving the loss of property to the amount of several thou sand pounds, broke out a little before four o'clock yesterday morning, upon the premises of Messrs. George Wilson and Co., engineers, millwrights, and screw-bolt-manufacturers, Garden-lane, Salford, which, together with the extensive sizing works of Messrs. J. G. Lavino and Co. adjoining, were quickly destroyed. Of Messrs. Wilson's premises only part of the walls and chimney are left standing, but the greater part of Messrs. Lavino's works are levelled to the ground. It appears that the premises were locked up safe on Saturday night, and about four o'clock yesterday morning one of the neighbours saw smoke and flames issuing from one of the windows on the second story of Messrs. Wilson's works, The wind at the time was blowing a brisk gale, and the flames spread with a rapidity equally amazing and alarm ing. Information was quickly sent to the Salford and Man. chester Fire-brigade, and four engines were promptly sent to the spot. Mr. Darling, the superintendent of the Sal. ford brigade, took the precaution of sending several water carts to supply the engines, and very fortunate it was that he did so, for no water could be obtained from the mains belonging to the Manchester and Salford. Water-works Company for about three-quarters of an hour. Nearly the whole of Messrs. Wilson's premises were in a blaze when the engines arrived, although they were on the spot in less than a quarter of an hour after the alarm was given. It was soon found that it was useless to attempt to save either Messrs. Wilson's works or those of Messrs. Lavino, the wind carrying the flames with such fury that the latter building was speedily enveloped in the fire. The cot • tages on three sides of the building we re i n a state of great ,danger, and the roofs and windows were frequently on fire. It was therefore determined to save the dwelling-houses, and the efforts of the firemen were directed to that object. The people were running out of their bed-roou into.the streets in their night-clothes, and the screams of the women and children were dreadful. The flirniture was removed from ' the houses as quickly as possible, and at length a supply of water having been p , ocured, the buildings were saved, though many of them were much damaged. Messrs. Wilson are insured to the amount of 3,5004 in the Globe Assurance -office., and Messrs. Lavino to the amount of 4,2404 in the Imperial and Atlas offices. There was a communication between the two buildings by a wooden passage, Messrs. Lavino's premises having been fbrmerly oc cupied by i4essrs. Wilson, jointly with the other building. The buildings, which have a frontage of about 70 yards into, Ciarclin-lane, presented a terribly grand appearance, as the . flam N were issuing from all the windows at the me The high state of the wind rendeee4 -• a/ considerable quagtityof proparev Asible to save . .... _ d • DR. BALMER. - -- The last duties to the remains' 'of Dr. t almer were performed on Tuesday. Before one o'cloc - t the body wry removed from his house into the chapel, Golden square, and, at that hour, the members of,the congre gation and others, assembled for the purpose of joining in devotional exercises, and improving The melancholy event which had brOught them together. Every part Of the chapel was crowded, and many were unable to obtain admission. The services were commenced by the Rev. Mr. Brown, of Dalkeith, who dispinsed the Comm Union to the congregation on the preceding Sabbath. After the first four verses of Psalm 61st had-been sung, ,Mr. Brown read the 9.)th 'Psalm, and Ist Thess: ch.- iv. from the thirteenth verse to the end. Hethen offered up a most Impressive prayer, amid the tears of many in the chapel, and • gave out the first two verses of the 53d Paraphrase, which were also sung. The Rev. Dr. Henderson, of Galashiels, one of Dr, Balmer's earliest college. companions with whom he maintained the warmest friendship through life, then delivered a most solemn address ict the congregation, in which he feelingly and skillfully sketched the character of his departed brother, and impressed on the audience the duty of r being followers of him as he also was " a follower of *Christ."' Verse 4-6 of the -fifth-third Paraphrase were next sung,-when the Rev. Mr. Lee, of Horndean also offered up a very impressive prayer, and, Shortly after two o'clock, the services were eon eluded by singing the last two verses of the Para phrase and pronouncing the apostolical benediction. It had been arranged that the funeral procession should move in the following order ;—The pall , bearers; consisting - of the clergymen - of the town ; the relatives of the deceased ; the elders of the congregation ; the . members .of the Cold stream Presbytery • and other clerical friends who were:present ; the trustees and managers of the con gregation ; the male members ; the female members ; and last, those belonging to other Christie' bodies—. all walking four a=breast. This arrangement, how ever, was known to those only who had been in the chapel, 'and,. so • large was the multitude without who had come to attend the funeral, that to observe it was impossible. The whole line along -which., the procession moved presented a dense mass of human beings, all anxious to testify their respect , to him who, in life, was universally esteemed, and whose less they deplored. A funeral, so numerously attended, has certainly not taken placehere within the memory, of the oldest inhabitant. The windows of the houses along the line of the procession were crowded with spectators, nOt a few of whom were in mourning and shedding tears of sorrow ;. and, though death has removed him from those by whom he was loved and esteemed, and they can see his face or hear his voice no more—his memory will be hallowed in their recollection. The Rev. kr. Peden of Church street Chapel, and the Rev. Dr. Brown of Broughton place, Edinburgh, are to officiate on Sabbath in the pulpit which he so long occupied.—Berwick Advertiser. BUTTER AND CIiEESE.—A Bill to repeal the follow ing Acts for regulating the trade in butter and cheese has .been brought into the House of Commons: —An Act passed in the fourth year of the reign of King William ,the Third and Queen Mary, intituled, "An Act to prevent Abuses committed by the Traders in Butter and Cheese :" An Act passed in the thirty-sixth year of the reign of King George the Third, intituled, " An Act to prevent Abuses and Frauds in the Packing, Weight, and Sale of Butter ' and to re peal "certain Acts relating ther e t o :" An Act passed in the thirty-eighth year of the reign of King GeOrge the Third, intituled, "An Act for amending and rendering, more effectual an. Act made in the Thirty _ sixth year of the Reign of his present Majesty, mtituled An Act to prevent Abuses and Frauds in the Packing and Sale of Butter, and to repeal certain Acts relating thereto.' " CONFESSION OF AN INCENDIARY..—Thomas Rust, who has undergone several examinations at Halstead, charged with setting fire to Mr. Nott's premises at Peb marsh on the 6th of April, and Mr. Ball's premises, in the same parish, on the 6th of June, by which property t a considerable amount was destroyed, was on Tuesday finally examined. A number of witnesses were examined, but the tes imony of J. Estall, a vagrant, who had been in the station-house with the prisoner Rust, was the mostim portant. They bad occupied cells adjoining each other, and were enabled to hold a conversation. Estall had asked him for what he was in custody ? He replied, " On suspicion of setting fire to a house or barn." He next asked him whether he did it ? He re plied,' " I don't know that I did it." After a fur ther conversation, in the course of which Rust ad mitted that he had been transported once already, but had got off after a short imprisonment, and said he sup. posed he should be transported now, and sent to Wool. wich or Chatham, Estall again asked him whether he had done it or not, to which his answer was, ,t That he ditlixtet rightly know whether he hnci or not." At the close m iliof the examination th e p risoner, in ausWer to the Charges, said that he was guilty, add he ,as fully com. matt& for trial at the'emuing fiskizs pa both cases of arson, as well as on three cliarges'uf larceny. HANOVER-SQUARE ROOMS.,- : A concert was .given here, on Monday, by Messrs. Sivo r i; Sainton, Hill, and Rous . selot, with a view to perform a series of chamber instru mental pieces—two of the posthumous quartets of Beethoven being the special features of the undertaking. The quartets , alluded to were faithfully played by the four artists, and the scherzo in the one numbered " 13"—a movement full of quaint goblin vagaries —was enthusiastically encored. These posthumous compositions are altogether most singular in character; they are essentially Beethovenish—wild, freakish, %veiling, grand —scraps of delicious melody ever and anon appearing amid the mysterious and grotesque element" around. They are, from first to last, extremely difficult; requiring the greatest precision on the part of the perforthers„ united with a perfect comprehension of the fantastical spirit which prevails, as well as intense executive feeling. Messrs. Sivori and Sainton assumed the office of first violin in turns. Sivori was brilliant and resolute.--Sainton quiet and unobtru sive. Besides the two posthumous quartets, fa quartet of Haydn, and a trio by Osborne (an English composer, lonik resident in France), were given. LAMENTABLE OCCURRENCE.---Mr. Win. E. Ryan, brother of Alderman E. F. Ryan, of this city, fell over the taffrail of the steamer at Lough Derail, near Killaloe on Wednesday evening, and was drowned. The deceased, whets a mere lad, was blown up in his bek at the awful gunpowder explosion at George's-street, in this city, on the night of the 1 3d of January, 1837, and most providentially escaped, though in the very focus of death and 'desolation. He was second, son of the late Michael Ryan, Esq., of the old and respectable firm of Edmund Ryan and Sons, provision merchants.-- I Limerick Chronicle. GALE OF WIND, THUNDER -STORM, AND II XIL• STORM.--LIVERPOOL, MONDAY' Monsemo.--During nearly the whole of Saturday last the rain fell in torrenSss, flooding the lower part of the town. In the evening it became fair, but the barometer fell to nearly 29, and at eleven the wind began to blow, furiously increasing in intensity till between two and three o'clock, when it blew, as sailors say, " great guns." Great apprehensions were entertained for the safety of the shipping, several vessels having gone to sea the day before. A. fine large packet ship, the Russell, Glover, laden with a costly cargo, was driven back into Bootle-bay, where it was expected she would have gone on shore, but two steam tug-boats having been sent to her assistance, she was brought into the river on Sunday, at noon, without having received any damage. The tide in -the river rose several feet higher than it otherwise would have done, and the dead body of a man was washed ashore by the violence of the waves. 0* Sunday morning the barometer gradually rose, and the gala decreased till towards evening, when it became cluSte calm and sunshine. This morning, a little after ei es it o'clock ' there was a thunder-storm, preceded and followsea by pelting downfalls of rain, a n d i n some di str i cts hailstsines fell thiek and large. The storm lasted only about he'sf an hour, and now the atmosphere is bright and clear, al!shough the we*. ther does not stypear at all settled, FOREIGN -Yorkroas.---There has been 'a very largo importation of new potatoes this season from Holland, one . salesman alone in Spltalfields Market having received as many as 2,103 baskets during the present month. Yesterday' three boxes of sweet potatoes from the Bahamas were sold with a collection of pines in the City, and realised modes rate prices of It per box. They are the shape and size of a beet-root, indigenous to those islands, and very produes tive, and should the edible qualities be approved Where, will, in all probability, form a new item of West Indian produce for exportation. DESPERATE ATTEMPT AT SUICIDF,.—On Monday morning, about three o'clock, the attesition of the polio. constable on duty near Short's-gardesis, Drury-lane, Whel• attracted by aloud shriek, which was immediately folio wed by the fall of something weighty upon the ground, where he perceived a female lying ispon the pavement bleeding profusely . from the head, arld apparently dying. No time 'was lost in conveying her co Charing-cross Hospital, whet*. she was attended by ;dr. Charles Golding, one of the: house surgeons, who discovered that his patient was labouring under the fracture of both legs, an injury of the spine and heed, as also the fracture of several ribs,. The unhappy `.omen, who is a widow, nausea Mary Ryan, forty years of age, has, it appears, been an itine rant vendor of fruit, and it is stated that distress had. caused her to attempt self-destruction by precipitating herself from th e a t t i c window of the house, No. lO s Short's-gardens, Dru r y -l ane, where she resided.

Keeling and Hunt, 2, Ainnumentlard. They were all in excellent condition, and, landed and a:Tired in London within a month • a their shipment rmsa Eleuthera and Nassau, 'ln the Bahama Islands. They were of those esteemed varieties, the Bird's Eye and Providence, and were but little inferior in taste to the best quality or English produce lion. In these islands they form a very large staple culture ; and judging from the results of the sale yes.- terday, their importation is likely to be of some b.eatefit to the islands, and supply our tables at a reasonkble rate with this esteemed fruit. The price at which ther sold were from 2s. to 58; each ; and there was a brisk competition from fruit salesmen from all parts of the metropolis.
