This Series of books will be found to differ in some very important respects from every other hitherto presented to the public. I. It will consist exclusively of now and original works, chiefly of the class of Novels and Romances. 11. The price of each work will be less than one-half the stun charged for an equal amount of matter in the ordinary system of publication. ILL The means by which the saving of cost will be effected will in volve no sacrifice of literary or typographical excellence. IV. The quantity of matter given in each Part will be found to ob viate a very general objection made to Serial Works, on the ground of a too frequent suspension of the interest. The Novel will be published in Four Monthly Parts, of the post octavo form. Each Part will contain One Hundred and Sixty hand somely printed pages, and be sold for Three Shillings. Unless special exceptions are made, and it is expedient to issue a story in a single volume, it is intended that while every Novel in the Series shall col tain the ordinary amount at present included in Three Volumes, it shall be completed in Two, and sold for Twelve Shillings. The Biographies will never exceed Two Parts, or One Volume. The first Novel will be MOUNT SOREL ; or, the Heiress of the Dc Vores. By the Author of the " Two Old Men's Tales." The First Part will be published on the Ist of Jantury. Orders received by all Booksellers. London : Chapman and Hall, 186, Strand. CHRISTMAS PRESENT.

The Dtßecroßs hereby give notice to Members whose Pre miums fall due on the sth of January next, that the same must be paid within thirty days from that date. The premiums are payable yearly, half yearly, or quarterly, on thr sth of January, sth of April, 51h of July. and sth of October, either of which several days constitutes the commencement of the year to Members. Persons, therefore, desirous of entering the Society, as Members, on the sth of January next, should appear, or lodge their proposals at the Office, on or before tha day. So various are the plans now befoce the public for effecting As surance on Lite, that it may seem difficult to make choice between them. As, however, all prudent offices make a considerably higher charge in the annual premium than experience has hitherto shown to be necessary, but differ in the mode ef disposing of the surplus or profit, the following classification may be made : ist. Proprietary Offices, where all the surplus from premiums and other profits is divided, exclusively, amongst the Share or Stock holders. 2d. Offices where the same is divided in various proportions be tween share and Stockholders and the Assured. 3d. Offices of a strictly mutual character', where the whol of the profit is equitably distributed amongst the Assured only. The METROPOLITAN, which is of the last class, was established in 1S:15, and although no paid agents for town or country have at any time been employed, nor any expensive system of advertising re sorted to, yet its advantages have been so well appreciated by the public, that the annual premiums already exceed £49,000. In consequence of the prosperous state of the Society's affairs, the Annual Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing have been reduced FO Y.TWO AND A HALF per Cent. A plan of the Society, with tables of rates, may be obtained on application at the office. RICHARD HEATHFIELD, Superintendent. Princes-street, Bank, 11th December, 1844. Ily WALTER K. KELLY.

As early as three on Wednesday morning (the time of low water at Greenwich) a number of persons re paired towards the unfortunate Sylph steam-boat, for the purpose of ascertaining if there were any bodies in the fore-cabin, and also to fix the chains of two lighters to the wreck, with a view of raising her. Probably no accident has ever occurred near this part of the river that has caused so great a sensation in the towns of Greenwich and Woolwich. The uncertainty as to the number of sufferers induced an immense con course of persons to assemble on the wharf opposite to which the Sylph lies, many of them remaining the whole of Tuesday night, dreading lest some friend or relative might be found amongst the number who were supposed to have perished. This state of suspense was not tho roughly allayed until about four o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, at which time it was stated by those who were engaged in ripping up the deck and searching the fore cabin that no bodies were there to be found. Notwithstanding this declaration, the most painful anxiety still continues to exist, as it is just possible that, had any'persons been drowned in'the fore-cabin, the i bodies would have washed out of the wreck, the water having a wide wash-way completely through her. Every search, however, with drags, boat-hooks, and every available apparatus that could be employed for the purpose, was made during the day around the sunken boat, and in such places as bodies would be likely to settle in, but without discovering any. It is therefore hoped that the loss of life from this melancholy occurrence is confined to the two men whose bodies have been brought ashore. The name of one of the sufferers is Sheppard, a man well known in Greenwich and Woolwi c h as a carrier be tween the two towns. It is evident th a t t hi s unfortunate man must have been sitting on the starboard side of the fore-cabin, at that part where the Orwell struck the Sylph ; and there is little doubt, from th e extent of the injuries he was found to h a v e received, that he must have been killed on the instant. This supposition is further strengthened by the fact, that when the body was washed up the companion, and was taken into a skiff, there was not the slightest appearance of bfo. The head, too, was complete y crushed on one side, one arm nearly severed from the body, and a thigh broken. The name of the other unfortunate man had not trans pired, although the body had been recognised. He was a seller of oranges on board the Greenwich and Wool wich steam-boats. When taken from the wreck the poor fellow was alive, and although the greatest dispatch was used in conveying him to the . Dreadno ug h t hospital ship, he died before reaching it. The body has since been removed to the dead- house to await the inquest. As to the cause of the collision, there is but one opi nion among those connected with the river. It is on all hands acknowledged to be the result of taecident ; but then some of the old pilots say, that they wou ld not have ventured to take a vessel in such hazy weather. It there be any fault on the score of the vessels proceed ing on their voyages when the weather was so hazy, notice will most probably be taken of it before the Co roner. The greatest praise is due to several Waterman from the different stairs, who put off in their boats as soon as the cry from the steamer was heard. This promptitude r, - ps the means of preventing a great sacrifice of life. eapt4ia Swaysland, the commander of the Sylph (whose skill and cao ire well Impwn), has scarcely left the wreck. oifieti the unfprtunate =mem, THE LONDON MARBLE AND STONE WORKING COMPANY, Esher-street, Holywell-street, Milbank, Westminster (established 1821), are enabled, with their PATENT MACHINERY, to execute Chimney Pieces, Monuments, Tablets, Shaba for Furniture, and every description of such Work, with an accuracy, rapidity of execution, beauty and durability of Polish, and reduction of cost, which cannot be obtained elsewhere.

THE AFFAIRS OF SPAIN. (From the Times.) MADRID, DEC. W.—There would still seem to be a hope that the lives of Col. Rengifo and his unfortu nate companions, who were lately condemned to death by the court-martial of which General Cordova was the President, may be saved and, perhaps, the penal ties to which the other prisoners were sentenced com muted or diminished.* A protest has been made on the part of the prisoners against the competency of the court-martial, as constituted, to try them. The first article of the 6th section of the ordenanzos has the following :—" In all that relates to military crimes, Sac., against the officers of my royal service, it is my will and pl easure that they should be submitted to a junta of officers of superi or r an k, and that the said junta should b ear the denomination of a Council of War of General Officers.' " And by a subsequent royal order, of the 14th May, 1801, it was provided, that even in th e causes submitted legitimately to thejudgment of ordinary courts-martial, if military officers sh ou ! d be i mp li cated, no penalty can beim posed on them by the said ordinary courts, but the charges m us t b e referred to the Captain-General, in order to be e xam i ned by a council of General Officers. It is on the above regulation that the complaint of Rengifo and his companions is founded, inasmuch as the court that passed the various sentences already mentioned was not composed of officers equal to the rank of several of the accused. For instance, the President of the court himself is a Major-General, whilst Evaristo San Miguel is a Lieutenant-General ; and Rengifo himself, being a Colonel, was superior in rank to any of the other members. 1 The matter had been referred to the Supreme Tri bunal of War and Marine; and that court has ad dressed a report to her Majesty on the subject, and in support of the ordenanza thus violated in the persons of the prisoners. Notwithstanding the belief that the sentence would be carried into execution on the ap probation of the Captain-General of Madrid, it was yet thought impossible that so flagrant an injustice could be committed until at least the result of the report of the Supreme Tribunal could be known. The Baron de Meer is well-matched by his brother, Captain-General of Aragon, who, in a late Lando ad dressed to the Aragonese, threatens that if any new attempt be made at insurrection he will destroy the very towns, and not allow one stone to remain upon another, in what he calls the nests of robbers, contra bandists, and rebels. The following is the bando : " Saragossa, Dec. 4. " Inhabitants of the valleys of Hecht) and Anso ! You have beheld with what rapidity chastisement has been inflicted on your treason, your robberies, and your murders. If you have the audacity to repeat similar at tempts against the Government of the Queen (whom God Almighty preserve) and the laws, be certain that your haunts of robbers, contrabandists, and malefactors will cease to exist. Respectable inhabitants of Arragon, as sist the Government of her Maje,ty in annihilating those inalignants, and reckon with certainty on the co-opera• tion of your Captain-General, " MANUEL BRETON." As the Qaeen was leaving the Royal Chapel the day before yesterday, and proceeding to her apart ments, she was met in the corridor of the Palace by the father of one of the persons condemned to death by the late court-martial. The old man threw him self at her feet, imploring mercy in the most heart rending terms, and presented to her Majesty a petition, which she took from his hand and retired. It will, in all likelihood, produce much the same effect as the prayers of the young wife of the son of Zurbano to the same personage. The Cortes did not meet to-day. A rather lengthened correspondence between a gentleman of the name of Cochrane and Mr. Bulwer, the British Minister, has given occa sion to a good deal of gossip here. Mr. Coch rane has thought proper to publish the whole of his correspondence ;with Mr. Bulwer in the Eco del Conzercio. To give you an idea of the taste of Mr. Cochrane, it will be sufficient to say that having been invited to partake of Mr. Bulwer 's hospitality, he has thought proper, in the published correspond ence, to critiseise the style of the dinners, &c., of which he had, as an invited guest, partaken at the private table of our Minister. Whether Mr. Cochrane may be taken as a good specimen of the modest and retiring Englishman, I know not; but the gossips of Madrid laugh heartily at the proofs of what they call "English eccentricity, so abundantly exhibited in his correspondence. The history of the affair, in a few words, is this : —lt appears that Mr. Cochrane, some time since, amused him se lf i n travelling about England as an itinerant musician, playing the violin or guitar, I do not well know which, collecting money in that capacity, which he subsequently handed over to some Spanish refugees then in England. On his arrival here, some short time since, there suddenly appeared in most of the Madrid journals articles and para graphs bestowing the greatest praise on the " illus trious Englishman" who had come amongst us. He paid visits to the hospitals and other places of public beneficence, and praised everything he saw. In some of the paragraphs it was even more than hinted that a cross of distinction should be bestowed by the Government on Mr. Cochrane for his services to the Spanish nation. The above-mentioned paragraphs were sent by Mr. Cochrane to Mr. Bulwer, as documents proving his merits, and, in some sort, his right to the cross, which was the object of his ambition ; and it was intimated by M. Martinez de la Rosa, that if the gentleman was recommended by the British Minister, there would not be much difficulty in granting it to him. The letter of Mr. Bulwer which, it would appear, gave most offence to Mr. Cochrane, was that in which he intimated the insufficiency of such documents as paragraphs to give a claim to decorations bld estowed b o a n t t p l e e r , s o o r n who had exc e s l e l e r n v e c d e e or the arts, had obtained for t t i n" nh h e' h e e w m i s c c s c h o p i auelvieetlrerr] European lo n n i p t y r h a a e n b t e u fi s re t o e celebrity; and he hinted that the laudatory paragraphs referred to were owing to his own exertions, or to those of certain partial friends who had influence enough with the press to get them inserted. Mr. Cochrane appealed to the journals to declare whether he had solicited the insertion of para graphs praising himself. The editor of the Posdata declares that the paragraphs alluded to were delivered by Mr. Cochrane himself for insertion. The Herald() of this evening, amongst other observations, has the following : " Mr.C'ochrane, whose name has appeared more than once in the Herald°, has published in certain periodicals a correspondence between him and the worthy British Minister at this Court, Mr. H. L. Bulwer. Mr. Cochrane reminds us that he sent us a copy of the correspondence referred to ; and as, in some measure, he complains that we have not inserted these extraordinary documents, we feel ourselves obliged to say that we have not done so from respect to the private chatacter of those letters. " Besides, Mr. Cochrane appears to be ungrateful to wards us and accuses us o f want of attention; but he surely must remember that we have heretofore published para graphs relating to him which he himself or his friends have communicated to us. We yielded merely from a hospitable deference towards a stranger, as well as to wards the estimable person who presented him to us and because the paragraphs furnished us were rather of a curious kind. Nothing of this possesses importance ; though, in truth, these circumstances justify the asser tions of Mr. Bulwer respecting the paragraphs alluded to. The conduct of the British Minister was delicate and scrupulous in this affair, inasmuch as, from hi s p os iti on with relatio n t o our overnment, as well as from his distinguished qualities, he exercises a necessary influence where honours are to be bestowed upon the subjects of his nation ; and he was not disposed to demand honours which were net founded on merits, in his judgment, un equivocal." The editor of the Globo states something of a similar kind, that the paragraphs in question were in serted at the request of persons interested in Mr. Cochrane. The misfortune is that the papers have already made it a political question, and thereby an importance has been bestowed on the matter which it never deserved. There can, however, be but one opinion as to the publication by Mr. Cochrane of letters which were never intended to meet the light; and every one must condemn the taste which could prompt that person to attempt to hold up to public ridicule the dinners of which he had partaken as the guest of Mr. Bulwer. The public will best judge whether travelling about England for his own amusement, as an itinerant musician ; collecting money, which he distributed to the refugees; visiting some public establishments here, and procuring by himself, directly or indirectly, through two or three acquaintances (as has been seen from the above), the insertion of his own praises in some of the Madrid papers, form sufficient grounds for a claim to honours, which, as Mr. Bulwer pro perly remarks, are only due to distinguished acts of valour in the field, or a European fame acquired by great excellence in the arts, in science, or in literature.

MADRID, DEC. 10.—The great matter of talk here fur the last day or two has been the correspondenc e which has taken place between our Minister, Mr. 11. L. Bulwer, and a Mr. Cochrane, who has pub.• lished the letters that passed between them in the Eco del Comercio and Esperanza journals. It is now some months past that many of the Madrid papers copied from the French an account of the expected visit of a " wealthy English gentleman, named Coch rane," who had formerly rendered services to the Spanish emigrants in England, by travelling through out the country with a guitar as a Spanish minstrel, and collecting subscriptions, which he handed over to them. Some short time after, Mr. Cochrane's arrival here was announced, and since then his name has been continually before the pub lic through paragraphs in the newspapers, and letters from the directors of public establish ments which he visited and eulogised. Some of the journals had latterly hinted at the propriety of the Government bestowing some decoration upon him previous to his departure for the south. Then came letters to all the papers taking leave, and thanking the public for the favourable reception he had met with during his visit ; and lastly, in the Eco of Saturday, came out an extensive correspondence with Mr. Bulwer, _the publication of which is to be regretted in every sense, and the subject is the general topic of conversation. It appears, by Mr. Coch rane's first letter, that he had spoken with Senor Martinez de la Rosa on the subject of a Spanish order, which the latter expressed him self willing to confer upon him, but suggested th a t the application should come through his Minister, upon which he addressed a letter to Mr. Bulwer, dated Nov. 24, in which he inclosed a collection o extracts from all the journals that had made mention of him, as showing that public opinion was in his favour, and that the bestowal of a decoration upon him for his " humble services and sympathies towards the country in 1828 and 1829" would be " highly satisfactory to the inhabitants of Madrid." The letter contained three extracts from the Castellano, three from the Eco, three from the Esperanza, two from the Espectador, one from the Clamor Publico, three from the Heraldo, two from the Globo, two from the Tiempo, and two from the Posdeta. i3ulwer replied on the 28th, that, having read all the extracts, he could not see anything in them to authorise his desire ; that some wore evidently written by persons who hail no knowledge of Mr. Cochrane or his services, while others appeared the production of a friendly or partial hand, and that whatever might be his own opinion of Mr. Cochrane's merits, his celebrity was scarcely so extensive or so European, as to have set all the journals of a capital writing in his favour with such eloquence, unless some trouble had been taken to draw their attention to the subject, and obtain► their suffrages. At the same time he expressed his Willingness, in deference to the letters he had brought, and the sympathies he had manifested for the unfortunate on other occasions, to communicate to the Spanish Foreign Minister, that provided her Bri tannic Majesty would permit Mr. Cochrane to wear a Spanish order, and the Spanish Government chose to confer it, he should be very well satisfied that Mr. Cochrane should receive it. Mr. Cochrane appears to have considered Mr. Bul wer's reply as involving very grave charges against him, and several other letters passed which he finally published, calling upon the editors of the Madrid journals, in a letter of the sth inst., to say whether their remarks respecting him had been inserted through favour, or had emanated from their own con victions, and whether they wished to modify th em . Most of the journals have responded, in one sense or other, to this appeal. The Posdata last night says, " We are bound to declare that the notices we pub lished respecting Mr. Cochrane were taken from another journal, and communicated by himself." The Heraklo says that Mr. Cochrane " cannot be ignorant that we have lent ourselves, up to this moment, to publish the different notices relative to his person, which he himself or his friends have in dicated to us, which we have done from hospitable regard for a foreigner, and the estimable person who presented him to us, and because the news we com municated were curious." The Globo has not de- dared itself publicly, but its editor has addressed a letter to Mr. Bulwer, stating that Mr. Cochrane was introduced with a request that mention should he made of him in the journal. The editors _ _ of the Heraldo and Posdata have addressed private letters to Mr. Bulwer in the same sense. The Tiempo merely refers its readers to the Eco to read the cor- respondence, if they wish to " form an idea of what i 3 now called the eccentricity of the English charac ter." The Esperanza, Carlist journal, declares that no efforts were made to procure the insertion of the paragraphs in that paper; nor were they ins er t e d intimacy; - through personal that the first para graph was copied from Galignants Messenger, and those since were founded on facts ; and finally, that they confirm all that they had said. The Cas• tellano,:Eco, and Especlador, treat Mr. Bulwer's re flections as a charge against the independence of the Spanish press, and declare that they praised Mr. Cochrane on public grounds alone, expressing them selves, consequently, offended; particularly the Es pectador, which writes with considerable violence on the subject, forgetting that Mr. Bulwer's letter was not intended for publication, and bringing strong po litical feelings into a question purely personal. The Clamor Publico has not yet taken any notice of the subject. The general feeling among impartial persons is one of regret that Mr. Bul wer should have allowed himself to be drawn into the correspondence, and of decided reprobation of its publication, many of the topics introduced being quite irrelevant to the ques tion, and the whole calculated to bring the British name into ridicule. REPEAL OF THE DUTY ON COTTON WOOL. (Abridged from the Manchester Guardian.) The Mayor had convened a public meeting of the merchants, manufacturers, cotton. spinners, and others, of the borough, which was held on Tuesday afternoon, in the large room of the Town-hall, " for the purpose of promoting the repeal of the tax upon cotton wool." The requisition was signed by upwards of 130 firms and individuals, including many of the principal houses, both mercantile and manufacturing, and individuals of all classes and shades of political opinions. Amongst the gentlemen present we observed— Messrs. R. H. Greg, Robert Gardner, J. B. Smith, Robert Stuart, Thomas Cooke, Henry Ashworth, Malcolm Ross, John Shawcross, Alderman Harvey, Thomas Bazley, jun., Alderman Kershaw, Alderman Hopkins, Lewis Williams, Edward Shawcross, & c . Shortly after three o'clock Alexander Kay, Esq., the Mayor, took the chair, and having opened the proceedings, Mr. RonERT HYDE GREG, in coming forward to move the first resolution, said he was sure no one present, and no intelligent person absent, had the slightest doubt of the impolicy of a tax on the raw material of the largest branch of the !rational manu facture ; or of the double impolicy of that tax, seeing that the great bulk of that manufacture was exported to foreign countries; or of the treble impolicy (if he might say so) of such a tax, where the country that supplied us with this raw material, or at least the great bulk of it, was engaged in an active, a suc cessful, and a constantly increasing competition with the manufacturers of this country. Such was the cotton-tax, the immediate repeal of whi :h they had met to petition the Legislature for. He would not bring forward any long array of figures to show the large proportion of our manufactures that was ex ported, but he believed the very lowest we could take it at was three-fourths; and in the latest state ments, those made at the Chamber of Commerce and in the Glasgow memorial of last spring, the quantity exported was stated to amount to five-sixths of the whole quantity in 1842, and to six-sevenths in 1843. The point to which he wished to direct attention was the nature and extent of the competition to which we were exposed by the United States of America ; for, although a very considerable competition had arisen in Switzerland and Germany, in medium qualities of goods, almost entirely perhaps in hand-loom cloth, still the rival we had to fear, more immediately and extensively in every point of view, was the United States. That country had every advantage in having the raw material on the spot, and paying no duty. The advantage in favour of the Americans in the im porting here of raw cotton, in the expense of freight and insurance alone, was, he believed, on an average, exactly equal to one-half of those expenses of impor tation to Liverpool. When the Americans had such immense advantages, could we wonder at the rapid increase of their manufactures ? Could ' wonder, after having supplied the Whole of their own con sumption, because we must not suppose that English goods had been excluded by their high tariff; for our coarse s oods were e x cluded I.),cforc that b' the very low price at which they were produced in the United States. In 1823, the total amount of cotton manufactures exported from the United States was 1,763 packages ; he had not the valuation ; in 1827, it was 2,494 packages ; in 1830, 5,306 packages ; in 1833, 13,207 packages.—(Hear, hear.) In 1834, he had only the return of the valuation, and riot of the packages ; but it was a considerable increase, amount ing to 2,085,000 dollars. In 1835, it was 2,858,000 dollars; for 1836 and 1837 he had no returns—[they were 2,255,000 dollars, and 2,831,000 dollars re spectively.—Reporter]—in 1838, it was 3,758.000 dollars ; in 1839, 2,97.5,000 dollars ; in 1840, 3,549,000 dollars ; 1841, 3,122,000 dollars; in 1842, 4,500,000 dollars ; for 1843, he had not an exact return, but it would amount, according to Messrs. Jones, Gibson, and Ord's circular, to between six and seven millions of dollars.—(Hear, hear.) In 1843, one-half of the exports to China consisted of American domestics ; they equalled one-half the entire shipments from Europe and America. What was to become of our shipping interests, and many other interests, if the coarse cotton manufacture of this country was to decline ? It would not take many ships to carry out shipments of lace, even though these were increased largely in value. He would merely add, that he believed Sir Robert Peel, in his opening speech, when he brought forward the existing tariff, stated that his intention was, that no raw material of manufacture should be exposed to any duty beyond that of five per cent. He saw also in the appendix to the Glas gow memorial, a quotation from his speech in 1835, in which he stated the great desirability of as speedy a removal of the cotton-tax as it was possible to effect it. The only argument that, within the verge of possibility, could be adduced in favour of a tax upon the importation of cotton wool was furnished by the prohibition to export machinery. That prohi bition was now removed ; our machinery was ex ?portable, and was exporting most rapidly to every part of the world, and to America amongst other places ; and we had now no monopoly, if he might use the term—(though it was only a partial one be fore, for there was much smuggled) —we had now not the shadow of a monopoly left, to urge in defence of continuing this tax. And, if the income-tax were retained, as it was said it would he, then it would be utterly inexcusable to retain the cotton-tax for a day longer. But even if it were not retained, still he would say that there was no tax that demanded such an immediate removal as the cotton-tax.—(Applause.) In conformity with these views, he. would move the first resolution—" That the tax on cotton wool, the staple raw material of the manufacture of this district, is grossly impolitic, and operates, as experience has proved, to the injury of our trade and commerce; and ought, therefore, to be forthwith repealed." Mr. ROBERT GARDNER, in seconding the resolu tion, said, with respect to the cotton-tax, there could be no difference of opinion in that room. It was a tax, as he had stated on a former occasion, which pressed directly upon the operative. With respect to wages, it was well known that in this part of the country they were formerly exceedingly low. In one point of view, wages were perhaps reduced by the manufacturers considerably below the point to which they ought to have been reduced, but they followed a noble example—the example of the aristocracy—and, when the wages of the manufacturing operatives were at the very lowest point, they were never reduced to the level of the agricultural labourers—(Hear)—nor were the wages of the manufacturing operatives here ever reduced to the level of those paid for the same work either in Germany or America. Therefore, he would correct himself, and say that the English manu facturers had not reduced wages lower than they had been compelled to do; for, when they paid the lowest wages, they were still paying more than the agricul tural labourer received, and more than was paid for the same kind of work in America or the continent of Europe. He would therefore turn round and say that the operative did not suffer in this country in consequence of the reduction of wages, but in consequence of the extravagantly high price of f iod.—(llear, hear.) A great deal was said about rural population, and about protection and encourage ment to native industry. If there was any truth in the report of the Commissioners appointed to examine into the condition of the agricultural population, they were in a much worse state than our own. What were the earnings of the agricultural labourer, and what did they contribute to the revenue ?—(Hear.) They principally lived upon potatoes and bread, and could contribute nothing to the revenue, which was dependent almost exclusively upon the commerce of the country.—(Hear.) He had no hesitation in say ing that more wages were paid by the manufacturers of Lancashire than were paid for all the rural labour of England, Ireland, and Scotland—while, as he had said, the revenue, almost exclusively depended upon manufacturing industry. Some person said, " What has manufactures done ?" It had reduced the expenditure not only of the labourer, but of the noble.—(Hear, hear.) It had reduced everything, in the article of cotton, from three fourths to four-fifths of its original value; every thing in the shape of linen from one-half to three fourths ; everything in the shape of woollens, as far as the manufacturing process of woollens was con cerned, it had reduced in value three-fourths. It had reduced the expenditure of the noble, as well as the poor, in everything connected with furniture, clothing, and everything of that sort, from one-half to three-fourths, or even four-fifths in some cases ; and yet those who cried down machinery and manu factures were the friends, the manufacturers, and the enemies of the labourer.—(Hear, hear.) It must be borne in mind, also, that in proportion as the la bourer's expenditure in clothing had been reduced, just in the same proportion had his food been in creased.—(Hear.) The Duke of Richmond was of opinion that foreigners would continue to take our cloth, though we refused their wool. A friend of his (Mr. Gardner's) who was d ee pl y i n t erested in the wool trade, predicted that in fourteen years of the time of the duty being imposed, foreigners would meet us in every neutral market, and beat us out of it ; and we had found the truth of it by experience. Yet some persons never profited by experience. When the pesent Government proposed to take off the only remaining duty upon wool, the Duke of Richmond came down and said something about destroying the agricultural interest, and that he would move for an inquiry. He (Mr. Gardner) thought was Lord Dalhougie who said, that if his Grace moved for an in quiry into the wool trade, he might meet with many things which were most unpleasant to him ; so he got up and, without moving for an inquiry, talked about inflicting injury upon the landed interest by reducing the price of English wool. What was the result ? The price of English wool, since the lowest prices of 1845, had risen from 35 to 40 per cent., and the in crease in the import of foreign wool was now 60 per cent. upon that of 1843, and 90 per cent. upon that of 1842.—(Hear.) And that, notwithstanding the increase of price of British wool to the extent of 35 to 40 per cent., all this had arisen, not from protec tion, but in consequence of taking off protection. Then our exports of woollens in 1842 were 4,869,0001 b.; in 1844, they were 8,065,0001 b. What should they have been if the sixpence duty had been retained ? Why, before thdt injurious tax was inflicted on Yorkshire, the population of which county some years ago was larger than that of Lan cashire. (its area being thrice as large as this county), and probably, but for this mischievous law, the popu lation of Yorkshire would now have been as far a head of Lancashire as Lancashire was of Yorkshire. Where was, then, the talk of " native industry" and " the English labourer," of which we now read so much ? At the meeting of the Society for the Pro tection of Agriculture the other day, at which the Dukes of Richmond and Cleveland and many others were present, they approved of Sir R. Peel's Corn Bill, but especially of the entire reduction of the wool duty; though, previously, the same Dukes had pro tested strongly against such removal. Mr. Gardner then adverted to the corn-law, and said he could de monstrate, to any man who would reflect on the sub ject, that the sliding-scale was one of the greatest curses that ever befel this country.—(Great applause.) If ever a law came from below, that was the law.— (Laughter and applause.) He was also prepared to show that three-fourths of the revenue was levied en tirely from the working p eo pl e , an d it was quite time there should be an end of that.—(Hear.) The teas, for instance, that cost from 2d. to 10d. per pound, paid as heavy a duty as those that cost from 3 5 . t o 4 s , The MAYOR—You are taking too wide a field, Mr. Gardner. Mr. GARDNER concluded by recommending mas ters and workmen to unite together to get these re strictions removed, which, if not abolished, would moat assuredly ruin the country.—(Applause.) The MAYOR then put the resQlAtic,n, which passed unanimously. Mr. Aldarrnau HOPKINS moved the adoption of a memorial to the Lords of the Treasury; that it be signed on behalf of the meeting by the Mayor, and be forwarded by him TlioidAs BATLEY, jun., read the memorie,), which, after embodying the facts of the case, con- chides with a declaration that the best interests of the tt DUTY ON PAPER MEETING OF MANUFACTURERS. An important meeting of paper-manufacturers was held at th e L on d on C o ff ee -h ouse, L u d g ate-hill, yes terday, for the purpose of taking steps to proc ure the total a b o liti on o f t h e d u t y on paper in the ap • proaching session of Parliament. At one o'clock Mr. John Dickinson was called to the chair. The CHAIRMAN said he felt great satisfaction in seeing so many respectable paper manufacturers pre sent at the meeting. In the year 1836, when by a vigorous eff o rt th e y succee d e d i n obtaining a re duction of the duty, a hope was entertained that the law would be placed on a more certain basis by the equalisation of the duty. That hope had, however, been disappointed ; and there was now no other means of removing the difficulties under which they laboured, except their total abolition.—(Hear, hear.) The amount of duty paid, in 1836, on some branches of manufacture was not less than 150 per cent. ; it was now reduced to about 80 per cent. He then proceeded to describe a process of paper-making, for which a patent was taken out in 1833, which had been exempted from the payment of duty, on account of the mode of ma nufacture. The paper in question was called sheath. ing and rasping paper. The Excise authorities had declined to enforce the duty, notwithstand ing the apparent stringency of the last Act; and the fact, that the law could not be made to reach such a case formed a powerful reason in fa your of the abolition of the duty. If the duty were 145. per cwt. upon an article, the original cost of which was only about 18s., how was it possible to compete with the inventors of this process ? The Excise had attempted and failed to remedy the evil. A case of defrauding the revenue had lately come before the Court: of Exchequer, and such cases were in fact extremely common. A superannuated paper-maker had confessed, that in the mill where he was employed, in a distant part of the country, it was cus tomary to pay half the duty, and retain the other half.—(hear, hear.) The present law was most pernicious in its operation upon other branches of trade. It affected millwrights, hair and felting manufacturers, printers, bookbinders, cardmakers, and many other classes. The late Mr. Rees, of the firm. of Longman and Co., had stated before a Committee of the House of Commons that, on the average, only one publication in three paid its expenses, and that publishers were obliged to remunerate themselves in the price of the one for the loss on the other two. The peculiarity of the injustice was, that the duty was paid upon the whole of the paper used, whether the work succeeded or failed ; a practice totally different from that which prevailed in the case of dealers in brandy and gin, who paid no duty whilst the spirits were in bond.—(llear, hear.) If this law operated thus injuriously upon, publications, it must operate also on education.— (Hear.) Persons of all political parties, and of as re ligious opinions, were now agreed as to the necessity of extending facilities for education ; it was recognised as the right of the poor and the duty of the rich—(Hear, hear)—but the present tax on paper greatly diminished the advantages to be derived from that source.--(Hear, hear.) He firmly believed that the abolition of this duty would confer benefit, not on], on the poor, but on almost every class of persons in this country. Some opposition wus expected from the stationers, but he did not think it would be near so great as it was in 1836. As regarded the persons engaged in the manufacture, he believed the repeal of the duty would lead to the em ployment of as many additional hands as already derived their subsistence from that source. He had no hesitation whatever in making the assertion that such would be the result. Sir W. MAGNAY, Bart., stated that he had received letters from several paper-manufacturer s in different parts of the country, expressing the full concur. rence of the writers in the object of the meet ing. He believed the chief objeetinn of the stationers had reference to the uncertainty caused by the agitation of the question. If the duty were abolished at once, a great part of the difficulty would be removed. He conceived that one great advantage of the change would be the employ ment given to women. There was no class of females in the country who were suffering so much as the distressed needlewomen, and such persons might by this means be greatly relieved. He concluded by referring to the importation of certain boxes from France without paying duty; and contended that the many hardships of that nature which constantly occurred, entitled the manufacturers of the country to the total abolition of the duty. Mr. GAUSEN proposed a resolution, embodying the sentiments of the meeting in reference to the object for which it had been convened. The resolution being seconded, was carried unani mously. Mr. NORRIS urged upon the meeting the absolute necessity, if they took any steps at all, of acting vigorously, and bringing the question to a speedy issue. No one could doubt that the 5 per cent. duty, which had been imposed, had, from the very first, been paid out of the pocket of the manufacturer.—(Hear, hear.) He thought that if, by any means, they could indem nify parties who had a large stock on hand against loss, they would obviate any great difficulty and secure more combined efforts. A resolution was then carried appointing several gentlemen to act as a committee, and to take such steps, by communicating with the Government, and in other ways, as would be most likely to accomplish the object. A vote of thanks was then given to the Chairman, and the meeting dispersed. AGRICULTURAL MUSEUM. (From Punch.) The Agricultural Museum, lately opened under HA auspices of the Royal Society of Agriculture, will well repay a visit to the rooms of the Society, in Hanover-square. For the information of persons visiting London, we supply an imperfect catalogue, which will direct the visitor to what are certainly the Lions of the Museum.
