That the principal enactments in the proposed Bills form so arbitrary and unconstitutional an interference with the ancient and imprescriptible rights of the subject, that they cannot be viewed but with astonishment and indignation ; the NEW PATENTS FOR MARCH.

That the establishment of the proposed measures will be pro ductive of the most intolerant despotism and petty tyranny ; and expose every man's liberty and property, without redress, to the uncontrolled caprice of stipendiary magistrates and salaried police officers. That the present Ministerial manoeuvre to carry out the scheme of consolidation and centralization, is considerei by this Vestry as but the commencement of a series of measures for the abolition of other rights of the people; and while it is cal culated to create a system •f continental espionage and ter rorism, repugnant to the best feelings of Englishmen, will place in the hands of the Government of the day powers which aro subversive of the first principles of cur admirable Constitation.

ROWLAND AND SON, 20, HAT TON• GARDEN, LONDON.—" GENTLEMEN,—I have been prevailed upon by a friend to try your Macassar Oil, and have, indeed, found it of amazing benefit in my family. Four of my children, a few yeas ago, were ill with the scarlet fever, and until about three months since, there was not the least appearance of hair upon their heads. The medical gentlemen who attended them gave no hopes of it ever returning ; but, after using your Macassar Oil, a short time, I found, to my great delight, their heads covered with short, strong hair, which is now daily improving. You are at liberty to make whatever use you please of this letter to your advantage ; as I live in the country, I have taken the present opportunity of conveying it by a friend to you. I am, gentlemen, your humble servant, Janet Smith. Ottringham, Yorkshire, June Bth." Rowland's Macassar Oil is the only article that really produces and restores the Hair; also, Whiskers, Mustachios, Eyebrows, &c. ; prevents Hair from falling off or turning grey ; changes grey hair to its original colour ; frees it from scurf and dandruff, and makes it beautifully soft and curly. Notice.—The lowest price is 3s. 6d., the next price is 75., los. 6d., and 21s. per bottle. Ask for " Rowland's Macassar Oil." For upwards of a quarter of a century, no year, as a a hole, has been more favourable to the interests of the hardy sons of Neptune et Buckhaven, than the pre sent. While the commercial and manufacturing part of the population have suffered materially, and whilst, under the enterprise and skill of the agriculturist, the earth re fused to yield her wonted stores of plenty, the fishermen have drawn from the " treasures of the deep" to an extent almost unparalleled. Vast shoals of white fish frequented the Firth during the last twelvemonth—so that the fisher men have, in every department of their calling, been suc cessful. From 21. to 3/. was sometimes earned by a single man in the " deep sea" fishing carried on in the neigh bourhood of the Isle of May, and sometimes thirty miles east from it. Last summer the herring continued about six weeks in the Firth, and yielded our townsmen clear profit ranging from 501. to 701. The success attending the present fishing season has even surpassed it. The number of barrels cured by each averages 1,000, making a grand total of 13,000. Prices varied from 10s. 6d. to 245., and the average price per barrel may be estimated at 15s. —s o that little short of 10,0001. worth of herring have been cured in Buckhaven during the season.—Fffe herald. j OXFORD AT MlDNlGHT.—Night—breathl ess and cloudless night—looked down unbroken over Oxford; and where, oh where, throughout the peopled plains of merry England, looks she on so fair a city ? Beautiful at all times—like Scott's Melrose, most beautiful is she by moonlight, when the last shout of midnight festivity has died away, and the youthful forms that so lately thronged her streets have passed like the daylight to their rest. For the night of Oxford is not as the night of London. There, the rolling of the wheel, the rattling of the dice, the gay dance flag not, till morning dawns upon the scene. In Oxford, after the magic hour of midnight, the streets are deserted, and the silence unbroken—apt emblem of the difference between the brief burst of youthful excitement, and the cold, listless, unceasing routine of the jaded vete. ran and profecscd pleasure-hunter.—Vincent Eden, in Bentley's Miscellany, That to avert by every means in our power such arbitrary and unconstitutional proceedings on the part of her Majesty's Ministers, a petition, embodying the foregoing res 'lutions, forthwith prepared, and presented to the Commons' House of Parliament, praying that the said Bills do not pass into a law, and that the Right Hon. Lord Tei g nmouth, and Sir Benjamin Hall, B ar t., th e M em b ers f or the Borough of Marylebone, be requested to present and support such petition, and to use all their influence within the walls of Parliament, and elsewhere, to defeat the objects of this uncalled for measure of injustice. That the thanks of this Vestry are due, and are hereby of fered, to the Press of England generally, and to the Press of London in particular, forthe very efficient and energetic man ner in which it has advocated the people's rights, and de nounced the present arbitrary measures of the Governm.nt.

Stn,—l have noticed that within these few days you have given the subject of Animal Magnetism some at ' tention. I beg leave, therefore, to send you an extract of a manuscript lecture of mine which, two years ago, was given in the Commissioners' Room, Kentish Town, bearing on the subject. It consequently had no con nection with any of the efforts which since that time have been madc in England. It is, therefore, free from all individual or sectarian motives : AAr i ( )Eir, r3t vo..fET-rx 7: . 7al"'WY xfrilha (51xxcovcrrtiv. The next argument which common sense applies to the truth of Phrenology is the laws of sympathy. The great, the just, the orderly, the good Creator has formed and continues to form all things admirably. Hence the concords and harmonies which exist in all parts of creation. The very word concord, however, implies the existence, or rather the probability of discord. All matter is subject to the laws of concord. Every particle, of whatever size, or wherever placed, is obedient to these laws. So strictly, and with such undeviating uni formity does it. adhere to this state of things, that it, inert as it is commonly called, may almost be supposed to be endued, if not with intelligence, at least with in stinct ; for no sooner does the particle come within a given distance than it begins to stir, then move, then run to fulfil the best arrangement. The smaller particle everywhere, as might be expected, immediately makes its way to the larger —to join it—to form a union ; but , never unless the larger possess the capabilities of such , a contract. The particle, however, waits not a mo ment for the consent of any other particle, be it as nearly connected by neighbourhood or relation ship as it may. On the contrary, it instantly dis solves the union which it may have, formed with some particle, provided a body for which it has a greater attraction come within the circumference of its activity ; and it instantly makes arrangements for a new union. Of this many examples, well known to all who have given the subject any attention might be given. But particles of matter not only form unions, or, in other words, not only have their likes, but they have also their dislikes, technically called attraction and re pulsion. So that no sooner do two particles, or, if you will, two bodies, come within a given distance, so as to be capable of acting on each other, than they in stantly repel or attract each other. A love or a hatred, eternal and irreconcileable, manifests itself. Hence the North Pole of the Magnet repels the South, and nothing but an external force greater than that of themselves can bring these two repulsive bodies together. This experiment the child often tries and may try with impunity, because these bodies do not create any danger to the living subject that brings them into contact. But this is not the case with many other bodies, for danger and death may immediately ensue if one foolishly bring into contact two bodies which have an antipathy towards each other. Hence the many accidents, as these laws are often but igno rantly called. Hence the deaths of which we frequently hear. Fire and water, fire and gunpowder, and the different kinds of air or gas, either on the surface or in the bowels of the earth, produce terrible explosions, and woe to the living animals existing within the sphere of their activity. But there is another quality or disposition which some bodies display, particularly worthy of notice here, that is the capability of communicating their virtue or virtues, or qualities, or dispositions, to other bodies. The loadstone, as we have already remarked, displays this quality in a high degree. Such indeed are some of the facts on the sympathies of matter often called inert —facts which lie on the surface of the consi deration of the laws of material sympathy. Our word inert, however, whick means inactive, sluggish— probably coming from in and sfyov, "against work," is very improperly applied ; for we do see that mat ter is not very inactive. In short, it evidently displays qualities approximating and analogous to those of ani mals, and is always maintaining a position, and held in that position by a fixed and invariable influence. After these observations on the sympathies of mate rial beings or matter, be it now remarked that natural philosophers, as that class of men who devote them selves to the study of matter and its laws are generally called, have wisely noticed the laws of the attractions and repulsions of matter—a conduct which has led to the most important and valuable results, to the greatest discoveries. These men never attempt to oppose, or counteract, or change the laws of matter when once discovered, which if they did would, they see, be as unphilosophical, and even impious, as it would be use less and pregnant with danger; because they know that the most melancholy disasters have resulted, and do still result, from ignorance of these laws. It may now cer tainly be observed that what is wisdom in philosophical principles applied to matter, cannot be foolishness when applied to mind, existing in and acting, as is evident to the most ignorant, through the medium of matter. Both mind and matter are subject to laws equally binding— equally irresistible. We all know, at least we say we know, that matter cannot feel ; but we know also that, whether it feels or not, it does make a stout, sometimes a terrible resistance, when we attempt to make it form poet ic connecta llyions, or unions, or marriages, which, to speak , it abhors. But, be it now observed, that I assume the existence of sympathies in Man, because I never knew one who de nied them. We love and we hate ;we like and we dislike : or, it may be, we exist in that state which we call indifferent. It is, therefore, needless to prove what none can philosophically contradict. These are laws of the constitution of elan which are not built on ignorance or bigotry. We cannot love what is not loveable, nor hate what is not hateable. The thing is impossible. Ignorant and deformed existences, under the name of men, may from a mistaken interest, op pose these truths or laws, but they, by so doing, will prove themselves to be at least not philosophers. Shall we then listen to those individuals, who swear that they will make every and any being harmonize ? The thing is a monstrous absurdity. The great, the good, the just Crea tor, has attached to a certain combination of organs— including propensities, sentiments, and intellect, certain fixed and invariable laws, which no power on earth can alter or modify. In other words, the possession of any combination of organs has a definite and mathematical result or consequence. It never can be expected that the Creator will counteract his own laws, which he in great wisdom and goodness formed at the beginning. He is without variableness or the least shadow of change. Nevertheless, be it remarked, that there may be providences, which though we call particular, may be only parts of the great whole, the wheels of which are beyond the ken of any human penetration. It is certain, however, that we cannot believe in contra dictions. This is a law of the constitution of man. No one can oppose this law, and no one wishes to oppose it. In short, laws arc given for the regulation of the con stitution of man ; and it is as much our duty as our in terest to discover and obey these laws, not to find fault with them. This is truly divine theology. A certain combination of organs become, from their very nature and existence, likeable or dislikeable. These combina tions, wherever they move diffuse like aromatic herbs though the atmosphere of all animals, corresponding results, or qualities, or consequences. Of this the very dog is sensible. Hence Southey— Who should lament for him within whose heart Love had no place, nor natural charity.? The parlour spaniel when she heard his step Rose slowly from the hearth and stole aside With creeping pace : she never raised her eyes To woo kind words from him, or laid her head Upraised upon his knee with fond'ling whine. Let me, for illustration, further remark, still keeping in view the light from heaven, common-sense, that bodies reflect the same colour as that of which they are composed. Hence a body of a green shade reflects a green colour ; a blue a blue colour ; a yellow a yellow. So it is with man. He reflects from his eyes and face and mannersand tones, and his whole organization, the very same sort, the very identical kind of animal, moral, religious, and intellectual light as that of which his whole organic existence is composed, modified of course by the previous existences of his progenitors. All the various reflections of men are, like the physical diseases of the body, i n f ec ti ous an d contagious ; and just in proportion to our combination and sensibility we are more or less affected or sensible. It matters not, though we cannot see the pestilential particles that affect the bodies of mankind ; but we feel them. As little can we see those animal, moral, and intellec tual effluvia, which are diffused through the atmos phere of man, but we can feel them, at least those of us who arc not completely animalised and seared. We resist or fall prostrate before them. Hence those sympathies, and antipathies that affect us in our private social circles. H ence the yawnings that irresistibly seize on a whole party. Hence, also, the disagreeable feeling s with which we sometimes retire from a circle. W e cannot tell how or why it is, but so it is ; we feel unhappy, and wish before the proper fashionable time to be gone. Some disagreeable organizations have af fected us, and provoked our low propensities ; and, by not endeavourin g to sift the matter to the bottom, we remain an total ignorance of the cause. Hence also, the happy feelings with which we with regret leave the com pany of some individual of a noble and amiable organiza tion. Such an individual spreads around him a highly moral and intellectual, and consequently a happy and healthy atmosphere ; and hence, all animals become more or less affected. Fortunately, his organic exist ence says, be happy, and he is so. But the fact of bad men or existences manifesting hatred to good organiza tions or men, which is often seen in society, does not af fect the case. These bad men wish to destroy them because they are good—because they merely in con trast condemn them. Kindred minds, it has been re marked, are drawn to each other by expressions that elude description, and like the gentle breeze that plays on a smooth lake, are rather felt than seen. John it is said, leaned on the bosom of Christ 1 These sympa thies require no teaching from men. They are the fixed and unalterable decrees of Heaven,.which no tyrant, or moralist, or dogmatic theologian can alter or even modify, which none of these men should ever have im piously dared to alter, or change, or darken. Hence children, particularly those of a sensitive constitution, throw themselves at once into the arms of some, while no persuasion, nor bribes, nor threats, nor punishments, can induce them to be familiar with others. They feel that they are safe ; and, likewise, men act on the feeling. There are some individuals of both sexes, who, I ,have seen the sentiment expressed in Blackwood, can impose, or rather think they can impose, on every one and anybody, except these fools, the child and the dog, by delicious morsels of less consideration and cun ning prostration. This is highly sympathetic. It is right. But we grown up men and women, even highly educated, as it is called, well acquainted, forsooth, with the world-- meaning by this phrase, men as they have made them selves—we wise in our own eyes, wiser than the light from heaven, tell, order, and command our children, by a strange fatality, to disregard and despise these holy laws. Let us be wise. We, in short, teach for doc trines the commandments of men, and trample, as we think with impunity, upon these laws of infinite wisdom and benevolence. It may, indeed, be said, that if children held their peace in favour of a good man, the very stones would cry out. Woman, often reviled for her likes and dislikes, for her foolish attachment to some of these laws, has sometimes resisted to the death the barbarian attempt to force into her bosom the man that she dislikes. We endeavour to find out, and when found out to re spect, the laws of what we in our wisdom call those of sluggish, inert, blind, matter, which can neither walk, but this is not Otte, for it does walk ; nor hear, but this may be questioned ; nor feel, but this also may be doubted ; nor understand ; while we, by an insane igno rance even ridicule the very laws of mind. But the child and the woman may now be able to render a reason for the hope that is in them. The light from Heaven, common sense, asks the cause of all these likes and dislikes, these loves and hatreds, these sympathetic tendencies which dark men cannot darken. She main tains that they cannot arise from nothing. No teaching produces them, for even in spite of teaching to the contrary, the child often listens to them. No particu lar climate produces them, for they are the produce of all climates. No particular circumstance creates them, for they are to be seen in all circumstances. In school and out of school, in the nursery and out of the nursery, at home and abroad. In short, it must be concluded that these sympathies depend on innate corresponding tendencies of the brain ; and, therefore, that brains must differ—hence the different manifestations, or tendencies , or effects. I beg to close this extract of my lecture, observing that it will be seen, by those gifted with a considerable share of intellect, that I have not drawn the argument so close as it is capable. The subject, however, requires much attention ; but the crowd have given it scarcely any consideration. I hare not seen any exhibitions of annualising, and am, therefore, unacquainted with the extraordinary modes which are practised. In my lecture I allude to the more common processes, which are always going on in life, to which the whole state of society is more or less liable. I am, Sir, yours, respectfully, London, March 27.

During the whole of yesterday morning a considesable degree of excitement prevailed in the City, iu conse quence of a report being extensively circulated, that the parties implicated in the late ingenious and well con trived robbery of two boxes of gold dust, valued at 6,400/., consigned to the Brazilian Mining Company, which it will be recollected took place on Monday week last, had been apprehended. Since the affair, Roe, the officer of Guildhall police office, and Lee, of Lambeth -street police-office, have been incessant in their endeavou,s to trace out the par ties concerned in the robbery, and to their own merit have succeeded. There is no doubt entertained of the parties apprehended being the thieves. On the discovery of the robbery an investigation was instituted by the Di rectors composing the Dublin Steam Wharf Company, and those connected with the Brazilian Mining Com pany ; and from certain particulars which were submit ted to their consideration, suspicion rested on some of the clerks in the employ of the two Companies, but the matter was so nicely done, that how to proceed was a subject of great difficulty. The reward of 500/. was then offered ; and since then circumstances have come to• light which justified the taking into custody of one of the. clerks in the service of the steam-packet wharf, of the name of ,Casper, and his father, Ellis Casper, a watch and clock maker, carrying on business in Fins bury Pavement. Their apprehension took place last night, the son was taken by Lee, at the wharf of St. Katherine's at six o'clock, and the father at his residence in Finsbury Pavement at nine o'clock, by Roe, the officer ; they were both conveyed to the City Compter, in Giltspur-strect, where they were lodged for the night. It having become generally known in the City that the prisoners would be brought up at Gui!dhall Police office this forenoon, for examination, a great number of persons assembled about the avenues leading to the of fice. At twelve o'clock they were brought from the Compter to the office in hackney coaches, but they were kept separate, and not allowed to have any conversation with each other. At half-past 12 o'clock Mr. Alder man Kelly took his seat on the bench, and shortly afterwards the prisoners were placed at the bar. Their appearance excited very great curiosity in the justice room, which was crowded to excess. The father stated his name to be Ellis Casper, and of the Jewish persuasion, lie was respectfully attired and appears to be about 45 years of age. The son, Lewis Casper, who also had a respectable appearance, was 25 years of age. They were entered on the charge sheet with being concerned with the robbery. Mr. RATES, a Jew solicitor, came forward and stated that he appeared on behalf of the prisoners. On the worthy ALDERMAN being informed of the the case, he inquired of the gaoler, whether the robbery took place within the precincts of the city of London ? Mr. PAYNE, the Chief Clerk—l understand not. Roe, the officer, said that the offence took place in the county, but as one of the prisoners had been cap • tured in the city, and been locked up in the City Comp ter, he considered it proper to bring them before his Worship. Mr. PAYNE—The prisoners are charged with being concerned in an extensive robbery, and you (addressing himself to Roe) must state to the Alderman what the sus picions are against the accused parties, so as to justify his remanding them to another police office. Roe then stated that in consequence of certain in formation he received respecting the robbery, he appre hended the prisoners. AldermAn KELLY—Is it your firm belief that they are concerned in the robbery —Roo replied he was certain. Alderman KELLY—That is sufficient : and told the prisoners that it was his duty to commit them to another office. The prisoners were immediately removed from the bar, and conveyed to Lambeth -street Police Office, where they will undergo examination this day. We understand that there is every probability of re covering the stolen property, though it is converted into bars. (From a Work, entitled " Insurrection of Poland.") La Harpe, his preceptor, and others who knew the Czarewitch personally, have given him credit for kindheartedness ; and the death of Paul produced very different impressions on the two brothers. Alexander, in reigning, forgot all besides. Constantine forgot nothing, and for his father's death vowed hatred to aii Russians, determined some day to take exemplary revenge on them. All those whom Paul had perse cuted (and the number was considerable, for he had not fallen by the hands of a few obscure assassins, but through a widely spread conspiracy) became, after his death, partisans of his successor. Constantine swore eternal hatred against them. Alexander, en the con trary, looked to those very men for the security of his throne, st fined with the blood of Lis father and his grand father. Yet this ecntrast of feeling did not disturb the harmony bets e n the brothers. No Czar, Paul him self not excepted, had been so savage and violent as was Constantine. It is one of the mysteries of Providence, that such a man should have been destined by birth to possess absolute power. To have allowed him tore main in St. Petersburgh, would only have been exposing him to his father's fate ; to regard him as heir-presump tire would have compromised, not only the empire, but autocratisin itself. The only alternative was to keep him at a distance. An inhuman tyrant, possessed of exalted genius, may revolt, but he does not degrade his subjects. He may rouse their intellect, and stir up their spirit of revenge ; but he does not debase their national character. But the endurance of a harlequin with a Field-Marshal's staff dreaming of craft and despotism is a satire on the sense and coe rage of the sufferers. Such was Constantine. This persecutor of students and of Jews ; this terror of de graded women, with whom he often quarrelled, and ordered them to shave their heads ; this spy, trembling and suspicious, listening with a thousand ears to the low whispers, to the loud complaints, and to the secret coun cils of the nation ; this executioner of soldiers, whom for a button fastened contrary to regulation, a false step in march, or an ill-adjusted knapsack, he deprived of honour, liberty, or life ; this architect and gaoler of state prisons ; this distributor in person of blows and stripes ; this doubtful, intermediate point in the hierarchy of beings, placed on the confines, where the brute race ceas-s and the human begins, half-man, half -monkey, in whom the Asiatic physiognomy, Kalmuck features, bristle eye brows, flattened and turned-up nose, and hoarse and stifled 1" o ice struggled for mastery, with some few traces of the European countenance, and a studiously polished manner ; this type of the savage of Mu-covv as propa. gated under the Tatar rule ; this incarnation of her spirit, institutions, and history, ruled Poland for fifteen years. Perhaps destiny would not or dared not push further this irony of 4bl-tune. What the hat of ae thority placed upon a staff was to the countrymen of • William Tell, such was Constantine's, with its white feather, to the Poles. For fifteen years were they doomed to bow to this hat, unless warned in time by the rattli ng o f hi s carr i age wheels to escape in all di- I rections. Conscious of his guilt, but defying public opinion, Constantine established the most perfect system of secret police that ever existed, for denouncing not only every spoken word, but even unuttered thoughts and feelings. The Belvedere Palace, fitted for his residence at the expense of the citizens, was the head-quarters of this police, whence it extended throughout, and even beyond, the kingdom. It was divided into two branches, exterior and interior. The first of these consisted again of two departments ; one of which, directed by the Polish General Roznioski, took cognizance of the countries im mediately adjacent to the kingdom ; and the reports for warded to Warsaw by his agents in Prussia contained details as accurate of the military stations, fortresses, gar risons, &c., and other resources of each of its provinces,as if that country had belonged to Russia. Amongst the papers afterwards found in the Belvedere was the plan for an invasion of Galicia and Hungary. 'I he other department, under the control of Colonel Fanshawe, an Englishman by birth, extended to Germany, Italy, France, and England. The reports transmitted from those countries contained curious illustrations of their respective governments, their public characters, the hopes and wishes of their subjects, and, in many in stances, of their military force and resources. Let not this warning be disregarded at the present moment, when Russian writers and Russian spies, both male and female, are carrying on their intrigues in all the capitals of Europe. The police of the interior was under the special di rection of Constantine himself, aided by the municipa lity of Warsaw and the post-office. To penetrate the privacy of domestic life, all families were compelled to hire their servants at an office established for the pur pose at the municipality. Not only were public assem blies, public walks, the theatres, and private conversa tions, watched by police agents, but the very looks and gestures of individals. Cemeteries, the tombs of pa triots, state prisons, became so many tests for loyalty ; and the mournful look, or unbidden tear of the passers by, was construed into high treason, and punished ac cordingly. Every honest man was marked, the esteem of his fellow-citizens being an influence dangerous to Government. To such a degree did Constantine carry persecution, that even birds, taught to sing the n a ti ona l melodi es , were ta k en from their owners and individuals often disappeared, no one knew how ; and time whispered lamentation s of a mother or a wife alone bore witness to her loss. Many such victims lingered for years in prison, without being told the cause of their captivity ; and if at length set free, it was usually under an extorted oath never to divulge the secrets of the dungeon. The cries of persons under torture were heard by night. in the Belvedere, and it was rumoured that Constantine himself was the torturer ; a statement con firmed by th e d ea th-b e d con f ess i on of the late 'Warsaw executioner, as to th e noc t urna l execut i ons which he bed been compelled to inflict. The food usually adminis tered to the prisoners was salted herrings, without dri n k of any kind ; but even this exquisite torment was, in one instance at least, surpassed. A Pole, named Adam Cichovvski, disappeared from his home under circum stances of more than usual mystery, and was supposed to have been drowned in the Vistula, on the banks of which his clothes had been found. Seven years after wards, on the outbreak of the insurrection of 1830, h e was discovered in prison. He related subsequently that two Cossacks had been employed to stare alternately at him, without intermission, until the diabolical invention sickened him to madness. For months after his return to his family he was unable to recognize either wife or children, making no other reply to their questions than, " Let me be at peace ! I know nothing :" FLOGGING IN BA RBA DOS.—TIIC Legislature of Barbados have re-enacted the barbarous punishment of flogging. Thirty-nine lashes may be inflicted on any pri soi.er, for any breach of prison discipline, at the discretion of any magistrate I SPIES IN RUSSIA.—\iot even the correspond (once of Ministers with the Court of St. Petersburgh, nor that of the Pr; ssiao and Austrian Consuls at Warsaw, was exempted from this investigation, nho thus felt com pelled to send, not only their despatches, but their private letters, by express. The only exception was in favour of Paince►a Lowieka's letters, as Constantine read them be fore hand. Colonel Sass, who was assassinated in the insurrection, had, during his residence several years in England, invented means of opening letters and resealing them, without leaving any trace of the operation. More remarkable than all, the Imperial family themselves were surrounded by the same halo of treachcry. That very Co lonel Sass was the Czar's spy over his brother ; who, in his turn, bad agents to report to him every word uttered within the Court of St. Petersburgh. A curious account was found at the Belvedere of a visit made by Nicholas to 13er lin, detailing the most trifling act;ons of the then exam witch and his consort. The following anecdote may be useful to editors of public journals --The French Constitutionnel reported, that on the day of the coronation of Nicholas, Constantine had mingled with the populace of Warsaw like a police man. Greatly incensed, he despatched Fanshawe, his charnberlai i,to bring the bold editor to Warsaw; but, on reaching B er li n , F anshawe found the object of his mission stated in the Constitution ne i itself, and he consequently re turned disappointed of his victim. DECLINE OF THE HERRING TRADE TO TIIE "EST INDIES.—The change of the political condition of the coloured population of Jamaica, has, it appears, pro duced a change in their mode of living. Scotch pickled herrings, which, in their state of slavery, formed so large an item in their bill of fare, seem now to he in a great measure rejected by them. The quantity of ben ings sent out this year to Jamaica has been very small indeod, com pared with former years; and even this has not gone through the usual channds—but through speculators, who, it is said, will lose considerably, although the price they paid for the fish was not high—about 21s. the bra-rel, at London. It therefore appears that this market, to which so large proportion of the Shetland cured herrings used to be ex ported, is no longer to be depended on.— The Orkney and Shetland Journal. TIIE GENERAL PENNY POST —The very mag nitude of the boon leads a number of people to imagine that it cannot be realized. .‘ What !" they exclaim, " shall we really have our London letters at a pe nny instead of a shilling ; when we would be so glad of a re duction of one-half, are we really to get a reduction of eleven-twelfths ?" And then like thethe child littledogthtahtat hasis offered too larg e a pi ece o f me at, or the whole sugar basic presented to him when he only t wished or ex p ecte d one li tt l e l u mp, they turn aw a y i n the full beli e f t h at t h e proposa l i s sheer mockery it is utterly impossible that the Post Office can derive a revenue from carrying letters at a penny each ! T o bring suc h persons to contem pl a te Mr. Hill's plan with a little more complacency, we shall take the liberty of directing their attention to one fact. The Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge make a profit by the publication of the Penny Magazine, and yet it is de livered free of expense at the doors of persons in all parts of the Kingdom. Now, if a publication carrvity, on a very small business compared with the business of the Post Office, is able, not merely, to Send regularly eight large pages of paper from London to the houses of subscribers at the greatest distance for a penny, but, besides, to supply the paper—pay o for fi t to e t himself l eas t and p literaryro profit and t o a t r i t , i e s tbicoaolksskill—amid through h whos e b an d s theav apr Magazine passes, why may not the "oat Office, which will neither have to supply th e paper nor literary and artistical skill, be able to forward letters to every door in the kingdom at a penny each, and have a profit too ? On the quantity of business that must be done by the Post Office, the difference of expense between a slow and a quick rate of conveyance will ha very little ; and, at all events, not equal to a twentieth part of the expense of getting up the Magazine.—Edinburgh ObYerver.
