PROSSER, Civil Engineer, is distin guished from all others by its entire freedom from dust or smoke, its great economy of fuel, and its perfect safety from fire. It has been a source of great comfort in the nursery and oed-room of he invalid, affording an uniform temperature through the day and night, with only one supply, while the most delicate test cannot detect anything arising from its use which is injurious to health—it merely warms the air without decomposing it ; and, as there is no door, none of the gases generated by combustion can pass into the apartment. Wherever warmth is required, this Stove is applicable. It is as desirable for the drawing-room as the laundry ; for warming greenhouses it possesses extraordinary claims, the very great expense of building flues, and afterwards the immense con sumption of fu'l, bring avoided. For workshops and ships' cabins it is invaluable ; it requires attention only once in twenty-four hours, during which time the cost will not exceed twopence. Price, Plain,3/. ; Fluted, 3/. 10s.

In India it main tainod a celebrity previously unknown among sauces, and was there considered indispensably requisite, with every kind of fish, meat, game, made dishes, or curries. As a stimulant to the ap petite it is unequalled, possessing a smartness not met with in any other condiment, and is strongly recommended by the Fa culty, for its purity and fine tonic property. These are original and rare qualities comb:tied ; consequently, bon vivants, the Clubs at the west-end, and all persons of good taste, pronounce the Emperor of China's Sauce to be the finest in the world. Sold, wholesale, and for exportation, by D. Morse, the sole proprietor and manufacturer, 16, Cullum-street, London ; and retailed by all respectable chemists, grocers, oilmen and frui terers, throughout the United Kingdom. CAB .INET UPHOLSTERY and BED DING, at the CABINET-MAKERS' TRADING SOCIETY, 71, LEADENHALL-STREET, enrolled agree ably to Act of Parliament ; being the Manufacturers in all its branches. The system upon which this is conducted precludes the pos sibility of competition for cheapness, quality, and durability, as no house in London can manufacture at their prices. The Society wishes it to be thoroughly understood that they do not receive hawked goods for sale, like the baracers and haber dashers, but they make every article themselves, which enables them confidently to warrant their goods of the best materials, and if any fault appears within twelve months, it will be made good free of charge. A trial is earnestly solicited of those about to furnish, as the only criterion by which the merits and de cided advantage of purchasing at this establishmen can be fairlo estimated. The funds of this Society provide for the members in sick ness, old age, and burial ; they therefore sincerely hope that their humble endeavours will meet with public patronage. Estimates given, and orders punctually executed; and lists of prices may be ha d, frem which the following is an extract Mahogany lounging chairs, covered with leather, with spring seats, 455. each ; mahogany chairs in horse-hair seating, 13s. 9d. each ; Trafalgar, 17s. 6d. ditto ; mahogany sofas, 90s. each ; mahogany Pembroke tables, 21s. ; mahogany four-post bed steads, 60s. ; tent ditto, 205. ; turniture, ditto, 20s. ; japanned chairs, 25.; cane-seat ditto, 3s. 6d. ; japanned stands and dress ing-tables, 6s. each ; japanned drawers, 345. each ; mahogany ditto, 445. ; feather beds and mattresses, warranted free from dust or smell, or the money returned ; solid rose-wood chairs, stuffed with horse-hair, from 255. each ; couches, 6/. 10s. ; ditto 100 tables, from 4/. 10s. ; mahogany ditto, 70s. each ; fancy chairs, 7s. 6d. each .

No successful attempt has hitherto been made to introduce the superior coals of North Staffordshire into the London Market, and the wealthy owners of the northern collieries have hitherto enjoyed a monopoly. For the purpose of supplying the Metropolis with coals equal, and in some respects superior, to the best " Wallsend," a Company has be en f orme d who have contracted for the purchase of the Dilhorne Colliery, with its engines and machinery, and the fee simple of a largo tract of adjoining mineral land, abound ing in coal and iron, situate in the Northern Division of the County of Stafford. Arrangements have been made with the different Canal Proprietors for the transit of the Coal at reduced rates of tonnage; and the Company will be enabled to deliver to their Shareholders in London, at all seasons of the year, the very best quality of Coals at 225. 6d. per ton, leaving an ample return for the Capital embarked. The Coals have been burnt at many of the leading establish ments in London, who have furnished the most satisfactory Testimonials to their quality as compared with the best Walls end Coals.

THE HELDER, SEPT. 9.—About four o'clock this morning a fire broke out here in the workshop of the ship carpenter T. Lastdrager, the cause of which is not known. Speedy assistance being at hand, and the wind, not in a quart er t o spread the flames, the fire was hap pily got under in about two hours, so that the ships in the harbour were saved from the danger to which they might have been exposed if the wind had been in another direction. FLUSHING, SEPT. B.—This afternoon, at five o'clock, Prince Henry and Captain Arriens came in a boat with twelve sailors to go on board the steamer lying in the road ready to receive them. The heavy surf drove the boat under the paddle-box of the steamer, and upset it, just as his Royal Highness and Captain Arriens had got on board the steamer. The sailors were happily saved, and taken back to the Rhyn. The: steam-boat set out soon afterwards for Rotterdam. (From the Bremen Gazette.) HANovER, SEPT.

TUESDAY, SEPT. 10. The Committee of the Town Council resumed their investigation, and the following witnesses were examined this day : James Smith, plater, of 4, Court, 1, house, Blucher street, examined :—I work chiefly for Mr. John Ry land, and for Messrs, Blackford and Lawson, Great Charles-street. On the Bth of July, about nine at night, I was coming home from work, and was walking down Blucher-street by myself ; when I got to my entry end, my daughter, a little girl, said, " Father, your supper is ready on the table." I was then standing with my face towards the entry, and my back towards the street. Two of the London policemen came down the street whilst I was so standing ; and, with out saying a word, one of them struck a neighbour of mine, named Andrews, who was standinz at the entry and smokin g e , his pipe, with a staff. The blow knocked him dow n . I went to pick him up, when the policeman struck me upon the back with a staff, which knocked me down ; whilst down, they struck me three times upon the back. I was disabled from work nine days, and worked with great pain for three weeks. Mr. Waddy, my club surgeon, attended me. Besides my self, my little girl, and the neighbour I mentioned, I saw no one else about. Andrews was in his shirt sleeves, and I believe he had not his hat on. lam quite sure no words whatever passed between us, or were spoken by Andrews or myself, before the blow was struck. I never attended any of the meetings in the Bull-ring, or at Holloway-head. After the policemen had knocked me down, theey went away without say ing a word. No words passed between us from first to last. Thomas Baker, law stationer, of N 0.7, Upper Temple street, says :—I have passed through the Bull-ring twice when the meetings were holding, about a week before the 4th of July. The meetings were composed of about 500 or 600 persons, principally workmen. I did not hear the speakers. There was no obstruction offered to passengers. The principal thoroughfare was open. On the sth of July I was passing down the Bull-ring, about a quarter before nine at night. The military and London police were stationed at the avenues I:ad - - ing into the Bull-ring, which was pretty clear, and scarcely the ordinary traffie going on. When I arrived opposite the end of Philip-street, I saw a working man carrying a horse collar upon his shoulder. He appeared to be resting against the wall. One of the dragoons, in a very rough manner, ordered him on. The man said, " Well, allow me to rest a moment, and I will go on." The dragoon appeared excited, and said, " Go on now, sir, or I'll cut your head off," and instantly, without giving the man time to escape, spurred his horse on to the pavement, and drew his sword. He made a cut at the man's head with great force. The man suddenly stooped to avoid the blow, and the sword struck the shutter of the shop at the market corner of Philip -street. The dragoon then sheathed his sword, and spurred his horse close to the man, with an apparent endeavour to trample upon him with the horse's feet, or to crush him against the wall, which he was prevented doing by the man getting behind a projection. There were no persons near the man at the time this occurred ; and had he resisted the orders of the dragoon, or been guilty of any breach of the peace, there were several police men and soldiers within call of the dragoon, who might have taken him into custody. The blow of the dragoon was so aimed as that it must have struck the man, had he not instantly stooped. A dragoon who was stationed near, and observed what passed, ordered his comrade to desist, and he then fell back in his place, and the man moved off. It was the work of not more than a minute, and I was standing within a dozen yards. On the night of the 15th, at half-past eight I left my offices in Upper Temple-street. I went along New-street, and down High -street, towards the Bull-ring. There were several g roups of persons standing talki ng t og eth er i n the Bull-ring. I passed through them to the corner of Moor-street. I saw a dense mass of persons at the commencement of Digbeth ; they appeared stationary ; and I went towards the palicc-office to see what the police were doing. The police office gates were open, and I saw about six of the London, and several of the Birmingham police, patroline in front of the office. In the gateway I saw , about a dozen other London policemen with the inspec tor. There were aegreat -nuinber of persons passing up and down Moor-street. No molestation or menace was used towards the police. Two men met opposite the police office, and began conversing together, when one of the officers ordered them roughly to move eirpe'rkey . did not immediately do so, and one of p/V6rian across the street, and collared one of them, and gave him several bloWs with his staff across the head and shoulders. My attention was par titularly directed t owar d s t h em ; an d there were no wbrds of insult or menace used towards the police. They were decent looking men. When the police ordered persons to move on, they did so. Up to this time, which was about twenty minutes to nine, I had seen no resistance offered to the authority of the police. The man whom I have described as being struck by the po liceman, moved onwards towards Dale End. I returned to the Bull-ring, and stood opposite Messrs. Bournes' shop. I saw a great number of persons coming up towards me from the direction of Digbeth. They had no flag or banner. There appeared to be three or four persons who headed them, and were a little in ad vance. The multitude were generally armed with hedge or fence stakes. I should say their number was not more than 400 or 500. The ringleaders were men ; one of them I should know again. The mul titude generally consisted of stout lads, from twelve to twenty years of age. I observed no weapons but those I have mentioned—no cutlass,.pistol, gun, or crowbar. A few appeared like mechanics, a few were in flannel dresses like colliers, but the .majority appeared to be idle per sons, having no regular occupation. There were, be sides this mob, various groups standing about, looking on, as if from curiosity ; and as the mob approached they receded, some of them as if alarmed. When the mob approached the end of Moor-street, they halted, and the leaders looked up Moor -street, and one of them flourished a hedge stake, he had in his hand, round his head, and shouted loudly, " Come on, my boys, they dare not face us." The mob hurra . d, and the whole, with the exception of about a hundred, went up Moor-street. I had not left the front of the Public Office more than five minutes when this occurred. I immediately left, and went up High -street towards New -street, expecting every moment that the mob would be driven back by the police. Those who re fused to go up Moor-street at the call of the leader, ge nerally threw down their sticks, as if alarmed, and went in different directions. All the shops, as far as I can recollect, were shut, and the street lamps were lighted. When I got half-way up the hill, I turned round, and saw the mob issuing out of Moor-street into the Bull ring, they were not running, and appeared to have come back of their own accord. I pursued my way to the end of New-street ; when there, I heard the clatter of glass upon the pavement in High-street, in the direction of Moor-street ; I turned down Worces ter-street, and along Philip-street, towards High -street ; the mob were then breaking down the shutters of Messrs. Bournes and other of the shopkeepers. There appeared to be two hundred or three hundred engaged in this work. They did not appear to be under the direc tion of any particular person or persons. They used the stakes in their hands, and also threw stones at the win dow shutters ; they afterwards used what appeared to me to be iron rails. I saw a boy strike the shutters of Messrs. Aston with a stick he had in his hand. Some persons cried out, " Not there—Savage's." The boy then threw the stake up at the upper windows of the ad joining house. There were many sticks or stakes thrown at the upper windows of the houses. Several shops were attacked at the same time, but the first broken into was Messrs. Bournes'. The mob tore down the shutters, and then, with the edges of the shutters, broke through the windows. Several of the mob then entered the shop. The shop appeared in darkness. No op position was offered them, as far as I could see, from the inside. The house appeared to be deserted. Just about this time, another portion of the mob effected an en trance into the shop of Mr. Leggett, which also, was undefended. The mob brought out some bed ticking, and unrolled it in the street, not far from where I was standing. They gathered it up again, and took it towards Nelson's Monument. I then saw a flame, as of a bonfire, just below the Monument, and ne irly opposite Bournes'. Ido not know how the fire was obtained. I saw the mob then carry some shutters to the fire. Some men carried back the shutters in flames to Messrs. Bournes' shop. From the time the demolition first commenced, to the time when the fire was first carried into Messrs. Bournes', was about half an hour. The mob did not appear to have increased. No one remonstrated with them, or endeavoured to resist them. Messrs. Bourne's shop was quickly in a blaze The houses of Mr. Leggett and Mr. Belcher we- .0 also ' speedily after in a blaze. I saw a boy come out of one of the shops, I think Savageie., with his pockets stuffed out. I heard a person.standire near me, who was looking on, say to the 'ou, " What have you got th ere ? that is not ";,,at we want, we are too brave for that, and we find any one stealing, I will be the first to strike a dagger through his heart," or words to that effect. The boy immediately emptied his pockets into the street, mid ran away. The man was not armed, and had not taken part in the demolition. I then heard a cry of murder, and saw a powerful man running along Philip -street towards the Bull-ring, and a man running after him, who knocked him down just as he got to the place where I was standing when down, he kicked him several times, and he rolled over, crying " murder." He got up and ran back the same way he came, still crying " murder," and followed by his pursuer. I asked who be was, who was knocked down, and persons about me said he was a London policeman in disguise; they had seen his staff. No one but the man I have described struck him, or took part either way. The persons around me seemed shocked, and said it was " dreadful work." The fires were now raging, and had reached the upper parts of the houses, and the people cried " powder," as if afraid of the ignition of gunpowder in some of the premises. The fire at Miissrs. Bournes' appeared to have crept up regularly from the bottom to the top of the house. About this time, which I suppose to be between half past nine and a quarter to ten, a fire engine came up High•street, towards New-street, with several fire men either u ) : 4 0, a id a l nsr military ot o l h dr ie o l t o , p fi s o on t rre lo s i s ct a i sight werei t n olh k ftrr ea i cagt i .a t ti was nmgoe i awms past oealnnedsaceacot wondered edopn offered oaent fires,ro i ei e bt d d s s a gt i o i ri i u l neg p t a i ao s wn t y to the firemen, or any shouts of exultation at its going. I concluded it must have been taken away in conse quence of some molestation offered by the mob. I was about twenty or thirty yards from it when I first saw it, and it was then in motion, and continued so long as I saw it. In about five minutes after this a cry was raised of " the soldiers," and I saw the dragoons enter High-street from Moor street, with their swords drawn. The mob then ran in all directiens. I cannot say how many people there were then in the Bull-ring, but I should think less than five hundred. I then left, and went along Philip street, Colmore-street, and got into the Inkleys, where the mounted soldiers were scouring the streets. I then went to my residence in Islipgton-row, where I arrived at a quarter past ten. I was about a quarter of an hour in getting there from the Bull-ring. The Governors of George Ileriet's Hospital, by a majority, have resolved to admit reporters to their genertil meetings —Edinburgh Observer. It is said the subscriptions for defraying the ex pense of the grand entertainment given to the Duke of Wellington, at Dover, were not sufficient for the purpose, but have fallen short to the amount of more than 1,0001. We have received a well-written letter from a correspondent complaining of the demand of a franc at the episcopal church of the British Embassy made on entering to every person who has not previously subscribed for a seat. Our correspondent is not aware that the church is private property, built at the sole expense of Bishop Lus combo, and that neither the British nor the French Go• vernment contribute anything towards the maintenance of the e.lifice. Previous to 1833 the service used to be per formed in one of the rooms of the British Embassy, and of course from the sin of the place no adequate accommoda tion could ha anrded to the large British population of Paris. When, therefore, the present edifice was erected, it was found to be of great advantage by all visitors of ar.el residents in the capital, and the Am bassador declared his intention of attending ser vice in the new church instead of in his own residence. Until lately those persons who had not sub , scribed for sittings were expected to put something into the boxes at the door, for the support of the.edifice, whets they quitted it, and it was always understood that the con tribution of each person was to be one franc. We know, too, that scats were allotted gratuitously, and in the most delicate manner, to persons whose circumstances did not allow of their contributing to the church as they could have wished to do. But—we are ashamed for the sake of our cmintrymen to say so—it was found that a large propor tion of persons who frequented the church without sub scribing paid nothing at all on going out, and that some gave only afew sous, while the expenses of keeping up the edifice were so considerable that title, if any, return was made for the outlay incurred by its erection. This, we believe, was the cause why it was judged fairer for all parties to adopt a method of payment in common use in various towns in England.— Galignani. Harvest has commenced in this district, but scarcely anything more. Every day during the week reapers have assembled at the Cross, and on Tuesday a considerable number were hired. The state of the weather, however, has prevented the cutting of some fields consi dered ready. The wages of reapers may be stated at two shillings per day, or twopence-halfpenny per hour under broken time. Should the weather prove favourable, har vest will next week be general. The late rainy weather has laid a good deal of grain ; but this has not yet, at least, been productive of much injury.—Paisley Advertiser. INTOXICATION.—The French say that cab bage is a remedy for the intoxication from wine, and it also has the power of preventing it. English experience shows that any green vegetable has a tendency to excite intoxication. Between one and two o'clock on Tuesday after noon, Richard Bailey, a journeyman painter, was at work pinting the balcony of the mansion in Carlton House terrace, on the eastern side of the Duke of York's column, when a portion of the cornice-lpilaster, and basement, against which was resting a ladder upon which he was standing, gave way, and, dreadful to relate, the unfortu nate rc.an fell on to the spikes of the railing of the area, and was literally impaled alive, one of them entering his head just behind the right ear, another about two inches below the armpit, and a third just above the hip. He was removed in a dreadful state of suffering to Charing-cross Hospital. WORCESTER HOPS, SEPT. 11.—The duty upon this plantation is advancing, and from the reports which we continue to receive the estimate is likely to be realized. We have no business doing in our market, and only three pockets have been weighed since our last. Prices about the same; if any alteration, say a decline of from 5 to 10 per cent. CAPTURE AND CONVICTION OF SIX ENG usti THIEVES AT GLASGOW.—BaiIie Robertson, the sit ting Magistrate in our Police Court, was engaged for abont two hours to-day in the investi g ation of charges against six men, of h av i ng attempted to pick pockets in Argyle-street, Jamaica -street, Clyde-street, and Max well-street, upon Saturday night last. The prisoners were likewise charged with being thieves and vagabonds, and following no lawful employment. The prisoners when brought to the bar were well dressed, and answered seve rally to the names of Edwin Hughes, John Wakely, Sa muel Simpson, George Hamilton, James Allison, and Robert Wilson. Hughes, a boy about 15 years of age, pleaded guilty; all the rest not guilty. The evidence given by Captain Millar, George M'Kay, division officer, No. 4, Mr. Robertson, and another witness, went to prove that all of them, with the exception of Hamilton, had been observed by the police, as suspicious characters, almost upon their arrival in Glasgow. Circumstances occurred, such as meeting in a particular ren dezvous, and being seen going there in twos from different directions ; and separating in the same manner, which tended rather to strengthen than to destroy the suspicions enter tained, although nothing had been observed upon which any charge could be founded. Subsequently they were traced to the Tournament and Ayr Races, and at the latter place were seen frequently in conversation, and taking up what one of the witnesses termed a very advantageous position at the winning post. From Ayr, where they met with Hamilton, they were again followed to Glasgow won Thursday last, and every one of their movements particularly noted last Saturday evening, when they were proved to have at tempted to pick the. pockets of several persons in the stn, ets already named in the charge, and followed to a well-known tavern in Hutcheson -street, where, between twelve and one o'clock yesterday morning, the whole gang we'e taken into custody. The prisoners, with the exception of Hughes, appeared very indignant at the charge, and condescended to cross-examine the wit nesses very little. The Magistrate considered the evidence quite conclusive, and sentenced Hughes, in the first place, to sixty days' confinement in Bridevvell, at the same time advising him most earnestly to drop the career which he had begun, and when at liberty, as a first step, to give up his present associates. For the others, Baillie Robert son said he was extremely sorry that his powers were so limited, otherwise be would have awarded a far greater punishment ; as it was, he would sentence t h em to the longest period of confinement which he could inflict—sixty days in Bridewell._Scottish Guardian. At the Assizes, in Liverpool, it came out that clay had been used, of late years, in the manufacture of soap ! Some makers, it appeared, introduced as much as 50 per cent. of clay In the Sheriff's Court Yesterday morning an action was brought against Lord J. Churchill to re cover the value of certain picture frames supplied to him. The defendant pleaded the statute of limitations in bar to the action. Witnesses were called, and proved the delivery of the articles in question, and that they were deli vered within six years. The case, however, was barely made out, as had another month elapsed before the commence ment of the action, the plaintiff must have been nonsuited. The Jury, without hesitation, found a verdict for the plaintiff for the amount claimed. Another action was brought by a coachmaker, named Smallbridge, against a gentleman of fortune named Arundell, to recover the sum of 15/. for the hire of a phaeton. The defendant bad agreed t o t a k e t h e p h aeton f or a twe l vemont h, an d at th e end of that time to purchase it if approved. He wished some alterati o ns t o b e m a d e i n i t , which''sere' done by the plaintiff; but it was a fterwards found that the vehicle could not be used with safety, He de manded a certain sum, the payment of which the defendant resisted, on the ground that the phae!or, had been of no uAe to him, s'ld he had been obliged te nire another. After the exar a i nat i on o f pl a intiff's witwaesses, the Counsel f or the Zwie n dant contended for a bonsuit, on the ground that the phaeton had been hired for a year, and that the action could not be brought until the end o f that tim e . T he Jury returned a verdict for the plaintiff, and the Under- Sheriff retained the issue of the writ until next term. The harvest is nearly closed in this part of the country.

In another Carlist garrison all the Castilians have been assassinated. It is said, too, that the families of all the Guipuzcoans, who have entered , into the convention, who were at Tolosa, have been car ried off to Navarre, by a Navarrese force sent for that pt.rpose. There were ( e F e s o o m m t e h e t h ß i n o g s s tTnt a b T o r u a t n s t c h r i i s p t p . ) much oat o fi t h e common course to allow of letting him go down t o hi s grave without a volley. Our readers all know th at t h e Admiral was a Bcstonian. He loved ersonage too to speak of the times when he was "a dirty-f,:ced little rascal, licking molasses with the boys on Long Wharf." This was before the revolution. The veterans say that his family, which we have always heard was rather cf humble condition than otherwise, resided in Pro vince House -court. Isaac was not destined, however, to he always licking molasses. There was a spirit in him which yearned for activity and adventure, and we find him in the British navy at a very early date. In this service no man more thoroughly earned that advancement and reputation which are both so hard to he earned. He went regu larly and rickTrously, we believe, through all the ordinary grades:, till tie reached the fourth step from the summit of a list which is always long enough to discourage the hardiest aspirant. During this long service he must have lived over strange scenes. Indeed, we know very well that he did so, and can only regret that we hear no thing of a memoir appearing which should embody the spirit of these things. At one time the Duke of Clarence was under as midshipman, we believe. William got grealy attached to his Commander too, who, though "rude in speech" sometimes, had vet, as the Indians say, a soft heart, and a large one. As Duke and King, the middy afterwards did all he could for Coffin's promotion, nor ' was he content to reliquish his society after coming to the throne. It is about, three years since William in viting him to dine, was informed by the Admiral that the gout, his great enemy, had wholly disabled him ; he was obliged to be trundled about in an easy chair.. " Well, then, come with your easy chair," was the royal sailor's response to his old comrade ; and go with his easy-chair he did. He had long before Luis received a splendid medal from his Sovereign's hand.Gis he carried with him on land and sea, and he had it when he was cast adrift on the Atlantic ten years ago or more, by the burning of the Boston._ It was the only article then saved from all his chattels, but his happiness was complete when it was held up to him on Captain Mackay's deck, while the helpless hero lay there flat on his back. This we h ave f rom a spectator o f t h e scene. Our neighbour O sgoo d, t h e art i st, was on board the Boston. He describes the fire (lightning in a cotton-ship), and the whole scene as terrific. The sea ran mountains high, and it seemed (Lubtful if a boat could live, vet the Admiral never blenched. He was disabled, and his companions were very anxious to save him. Mr. 0. says that as several were about to go below for that purpose, they encountered the veteran at the head of the cabin stair,:. He, having heard of the danger, had ascended thus far, by the assistance of his servant, and with great and painful exertion. A mattress was laid in the whale boat, which was on the quarter. Oa this he was placed, with his servant by his side, while a man was stationed at each tackle. He at the bows seemed well aware of the critical situation in which they were placed ; but the man at the stern took out his knife, and when the wave rose to the boat, cut the tackle, so that when the 'attest rose again, the other end being fast, the boat was half filled with water, and the sailor at the stern thrown unto the deep. By this time the bow tackle was unhooked, the boat cleared from the side, and the old tar taken half drowned from the sea, to receive a pretty severe re primand from the fearless man whom he had so uninten tionally immersed in a cold bath. Thus this scene went on till all were afloat in boats 300 miles from the land. One soon died of exhaustion ; 1 the rest were on allowance of a third of a biscuit and a gill of water a day. The Admiral not only shared all,' but he alone kept up the life of the company, giving them every encouragement, and winding updaccasionally with one of his hest songs. " Off, my lads," he roared out at one time, "don't look so eagerly at my old car case. " Here's a young painter will make a much better meal." Fortunately this lasted but a night and. i day. The passengers got into this port not long after. The Admiral went to the Tremont again, Just ;Is if all was not lost. Moreover, lie sat to the artist, and paid him double price. lie also gave Captain Mackay, who rescued the company, a dauceur of 500 dollars and a splendid gold watch. This is a long story, but it shows the whole man. He was a sailor of the old school. Smollet would have gloried in him, but he was too good for Smollett. With all his little eccentricities, andill.diseiplined as he was, there was a sound sense and stern Yankee spirit at the bottom, which slid kept him erect, and sent him a-head. Yet, to his shrewdness was added a gal lantry and generosity that flinched from nothing. His impulses were noble, and he yielded to them. He once commanded a ship when a man was knocked overboard in a gale ; his comrades hesitated, but not Coffin ; in five minutes he had the fellow on deck again, heels over head. " Al), you blackguard," he cried, as he shook the water out of his trousers, " you've cost me a new hat." At another time he had a fire suddenly discovered below, which proved to be close "to the magazine, and even the old sailors were so frightened that sixty of them swam ashore. The Admiral, howefer, led on the rest to the rescue, and the fire was with great exer tiogs extinguished. As to liberality, Isis character is well known. We see that he has lately been publicly thanked as a leading benefactor of the Naval School. Everybody knows that the Coffin school, consistit,g chiefly of persons of that family, has long been flourish ing by his beneficence, at Nantucket, where there are said to be at least 500 of that name. The old man loved America best after all. There was nothing litre Boston to him. Much more might be added to this gossip, but enough. We hope that some of the Ad miral's contemporaries, who are qualified, will let us hear from them. Meanwhile, as we said before, they'll excuse this " volley." MYSTERIOUS CASE OF POISON- ING AT HERTFORD. A good deal of interest has been caused at Hertford recently, on account of the death of a female named Susan Woolmore, at a beer-shop in that town, under circumstances of such a nature as to induce a very strong belief that she had come by her death by unfair means. It appears that the deceased lived with a man who passed as her husband, and a boy of his by a for mer wife, at a beer-shop in Peg's-lane, Hertford, and he was frequently in the habit of ill-using her, and was seen to kick her and beat her in a most brutal manner on several occasions. About ten days ago, the de ceased was taken suddenly ill ; she vomited dreadfully, and expired in the course of the next day. A knowledge of these facts having been commmutiicated to Mr. Long more, the Coroner for this division of thecounty gf Herts, he directed that an inquest should be held upon the body, when the above facts were proved in evidence, and Mr. Shillitoe, a medical gentleman, who had been called. in to attend upon the deceased, expressed an oplion that, from the circumstances it would be advisable that a post mortem examination should take place, and the inquiry was adjourned for that purpose. Upon the net* investigation the medical gentlemen stated that -upon ex amining the body they found the stomach Lighly in flamed, and from the result of a variety of tests to which the contents of the stomach were subjected, they had no doubt that the death of the deceased was the effect of oxalic acid. The step-son of the deceased was examined, and he said that he had never seen his father ill-treat the deceased, except upon one occasion, when he struck her a slight backhanded blow which gave her a black-eye, and this was about a fort night before she died. He, however, gave his evidence, in a cautious manner, and evidently attempted to conceal the facts with which b'e was acquainted, and the Jury in consequence exprevied an opinion that there was very little reliance to be r,laced upon what ho said. The man who passed as tlre husband of the deceased was questioned, and he di dared that he was married to her ; and said that they had lived happily together, and denied ever having s:d-used her. He also . said that he knew nothing of her having taken poison ; a n d on the day she \vas so sick, he boiled her some eggs, and !she ate one of them. He also said that a sb ort . time ago he had purchased some salts at a:chemist's . in the town, and took them himself. Ike couli . give no reason why his wife had taken i p n o te is p o . rj :,. . n an o d f smaicidkitnhgatalwiea away never h heard erse her f. ex press any After a long investigation the Jury retrtrned a ver dict " That th.e deceased's death was occasioned by oxalic acid, but. that there was no evidence to show whether she tt ok it herself, or whether it was admi nistered to be r b y some other person. " They at the same time said that they did not believe the story told by the husband, and expressed their opinion that he had treated th e d ecease d b efore her death w i t h very greatinhumanity. DISCONTINUANCE OF SUNDAY TRADING.— Yesterday the butchers in Newport, Oxford, and Grosvenor markets, exhibited large printed placards, announcing that or, Sunday next all business will be suspended at their slnios. A meeting was also held this morning in St. Paul's, Covent-gard en, for a similar purpose, and resolutions to the same effect 'were agreed to. ALARMING FlRES.—Yesterday morning a few minutes before four o'clock, the premises of Mr. Cook butcher, Peter-street, Westminster, were discovered to be on fire, and engines did not arrive for nearly an hoar after.. wards, when the flames had gained such an ascendancy, that the premises were reduced to ruins. A valuable horse fell a prey to the flames. At half-past one yesterday morning, another fire occurred on the preroikea of Mr. Grant, hatter, Mill. street, Lambeth, which burnt furioudy, but by the prompt arrival of the engines it wris got under after doing considerable mischief.
