" Amber is an indurated vegetable ju ce, and nut produced by the laws of crystallization, but by the same causes which influence the mechanical condition of gum. Insects are often found embedded in it. Amber is most powerfully electrical by friction—very hot, to such an extent as to explode into fragments ; the workmen, too, arc subject to nervous tremours' in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they en. counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited elirctrics ; Amber grows, with lime, and is apt to take fire, and is of such a soft nature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with dame."

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sin,—Should it not be intruding too much on your valuable columns, may I request the favour of your in serting this letter with its accompaniments. On the 6th instant, I transmitted the following let ter (Copy, No. 1.) to the Roya' Commissioners for the liquidation of the claims of the British Auxiliary Le gion of Spain, and having received no answer on the 13th March, I addressed the following (Copy, No. 2.), to General Alava, the Ambassador from Spain to this Court. I delivered the. letter to the Ambassador my self, at his Excellency's residence, Harley-street, Ca vendish-square, and being desired to wait for an answer, was, shortly, informed by one of his Excellency's secre taries or clerks, that " although his Excellency could see no reason why the Royal Commissioners refused to fur nish me with a copy of the paper I required, yet his Excellency could not interfere, having merely the power to act as a referee when the Commissioners themselves differed in opinion." At the opening of the Royal Commission, on the 16th of Novemher last, it was distinctly understood, that on a difference arising betwixt the Commissioners and any one of the Legion, an appeal should be had to General Alava ; but I would now ask where or in what manner is redress to be obtained ? This is a part of the proceedings of that Commission referred to by Lord Melbourne in his answer to the Marquis of Londonderry, in the House of Lords, on the 21st ult. I have heard nothing further in answer to my appli cation. The paper required is of much importance, as deeply involving the interests of many of the Legion. And if General Evans' orders are to be set at naught, as said to be, by the Royal Ordonnance herein referred to, there will be an end to all justice; his orderly book may as well be thrown into the fire, and the many promotions and appointments made under it, tossed into the flames. But why does not General Evans stand forward and support his own orders, and the interests of the many suffering and duped officers of the late unfortunate Leg ion ? and whence arises the apathy and apparent indifference of most of the superior officers to a final settlement of the claims of the Legion ? I beg to add extract (Copy, No. 3.), from the Legion General Orders, of date 26th Sept. 1836, said to be annulled.—l am, Sir, Your most obedient servant, 19th March, 1839. ROBT. LAIDLAW.

To this letter I have received no answer. As your Excellency will perceive it is necessary I should be in possession of a copy of the document re ferred to in my letter, previous to preparing objections to the Commissioners' decision regarding my claims, and submitting the same on appeal, and as your Excellency is the only authority in this county, who has control over the Commissioners, I trust your Excellency will see fit to order a Copy of the Royal Order mentioned, to be furnished to me, and I have the honour to be, &c.

IV. chap. 76, is an Act regu lating the Coal Trade of—as it is called—the Metro polis, which is made to extend 25 miles round the Post office, to which extent the Corporation of the City of London have extended their power of taxing every in dividual in the price of coals, i. e. they have unjustly and exorbitantly raised the price of one of the prime necessaries of life to about one-seventh of the whole population of England, and this, as I expect, will be shortly proved has been done for, among other unwar rantable purposes, the advantage of persons who have no claim to benefit by the plunder of the people. The Act alluded to sets forth the City Charters and Acts, by which may be seen the conditions on which they were granted and enacted ; and any one who reads the Act can be at no loss to discover the gross frauds which have been practise& A Corporation which in this important parti cular, not to mention many other enormous abuses, all likely to be shortly exposed, is unfit to have the control of the police within their now small portion of what has become London, or any other im portant trust whatever, and I therefore take the liberty to request your insertion of this note, and the memorial that accompanies it. It will I hope aid in convincing many of the cor rectness and wisdom of the Queen's reply to the Cor poration on Thursday last, when an impudent request was made that they might be permitted to hold the power which, like every other power they have had, has been used, not for but against the good of the people. and also assist, in however small a degree, to encourage the Government to proceed in this their first important measure as the forerunner, not of what are called re forms, but in a complete reconstruction of a Corpora tion of London, which shall include the whole metro polis. I a m, Sir, your obedient servant . March 24, 1839. THOMAS BRADFIELD. (A copy.) To the Honourable the Commissioners of the Metro politan Police. THE MEMORIAL OF THOMAS BRADFIELD. Sheweth—That your Memorialist has been in the coal trade of London for thirty-six years, and has for the last twenty years been actively engaged in detect ing, exposing, and correcting the enormous and mani fold abuses in that trade. That he has been instrumental in destroying the old system of ship and land metage, by which a saving has been made to the coal consumers of the metropolis of upwards of 130,0001. per annum. That during his long continued efforts to correct the abuses in the coal-trade of London, and thereby to lessen the price of this prime necessary of life and corn fort, in which much still remains to be done ; your Memorialist has along been opposed in every effort and in every instance, however small or large the benefit might be, by the Corporation of the City of London ; which said Corporation has up held every abnse, embarrassed your Memorialist in every possible way, and protected every one who by his practice committed injustice, and caused injury to the public. That heavy as is this charge against the Corporation of the City of London, your Memorialist is prepared to prove his charge to the very letter. That your Memorialist as a prima facie case, begs leave to call the attention of your Honourable Board to the circumstances which have lately occurred—namely, Ist, The appointment of ten more weighers, or, as they call them, meters ; 2d. The increased number of thirty-nine collier ships, which are now brought into the Pool for delivery ; 3d. The reduced price at which it has been proved coals may be sold, namely, five shillings per ton less than has been usual. That these improvements have been rejected when repeatedly, and in every possible form, from time to time, proposed by your Memorialist to Lord Mayors—the present Lord Mayor excepted—Courts of Aldermen — Courts of Common Council, and by Committees of the Court of Common Council. That the experience your Memorialist has had of the conduct of the Corporation of the City of London has satisfied him and enabled him to show these facts in any way he may be required so to do. That the said Corporation is utterly unfit, and ought not to be on any account entrusted with the manage ment of the Police-force within the said City, or per mitted to have any controul whatsoever over the said force. Your Memorialist therefore prays the serious at tention of your Honourable Board to this Memorial. THOMAS BRADFIELD, No. 13, Ranelagh-grove, Pimlico. March 18, 1839.

PRICE sd. HOTEL AND TAVERN KEEPERS INSTITUTION FOR THE RELIEF OF NECESSITOUS AND AGED MEMBERS, COOKS, AND WAITERS. Yesterday, a numerous and very influential meeting of the Hotel and Tavern Keepers of the City of Lon don and its environs, was held at the London Coffee house, Ludgate-hill, for the purpose of establishing an institution to grant relief to decayed and indigent hotel and tavern keeperi, cooks, or waiters, their widows and their orphans, Mr. PAGLIONI in the chair. Messrs. Lovegrove, Breadon, Breach, Godfrey, Tapster, and several other hotel proprietors were present. The Chairman explained the course intended to be pursued by the Directors. Until the sum of 5,0001. is raised, all stock standing in the trustees, names, and all donations, shall be added to the capital ; and until, after March 1842, all annual subscriptions shall be added to the canital. The chief object of the trustees will be to effect a permanent fund of 10,0001 The permanent assistance to be granted will not exceed twenty-five guineas per annum, and the temporary relief shall in no case exceed fifteen shillings per week. After March 1842, the Committee will be enabled to apply a portion of the annual subscriptions to the purposes of assistance. Mr. Murris moved and Mr. Fox seconded resolutions favourable to the formation of the Institu tion. The Chairman read a series of rules which was adopted. Mr. Lovegrove, sen. was elected Treasurer. Vice-Presidents, Trustees, and a Committee were ap pointed. Newbon, Esq. was requested to accept the office of Honorary , Secretary : Mr. Newbon, after congratulating the Society upon the unanimity which marked their first public meeting, said that he readily accepted the office. Several subscriptions of ten guineas were handed in. Thanks were voted to the Chairman, who announced that upwards of 4001. had been already snbscribed towards the funds of the Institution. NATIONAL LOAN FUND. A few weeks ago we drew public attention to the operations of this valuable Society, endeavouring to point out the many advantages which, it held out to those who could afford to lay by a little sum either weekly or annually, as a resourse against sickness, misfortune, and old age. Since that period a local Board of Directors has been established here, and will, we understand, be put into active operation almost immediately. The gentlemen who have taken the subject up are most influential, and will, we doubt not, be the means of effecting great good in the town and neighbourhood.—Carlisle Journal SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

The race " came off" as the sporting fraternity term it, on Friday last. The initiated will be aware, that it was for a sweepstakes of 25 sovs. each, half forfeit, with 200 guineas added by the town of Leamington, for horses of all denomina tions, carrying 12 stone each, with the other usual conditions of a steeple chase. The stewards were Sir John Gerard and Major Vivian. The following are the names of the horses that started and those of their riders :—Lord Macdonald's b. m. The Nun, rode by W. Al'llonough ; Sir Edward's Mostyn's Seventy-four, Oliver ; Count Bath_yany's Fury, owner ; M r . Robertson's Wattle, Patrick ; Mr Elmore's b. g. Lottery, J. Mason ; 's b. g. Jerry, W. Bean ; Mr. Newcombe's Cannon Ball, Carlin ; 'Mr. Vever's Charity, Powell; Mr. Bruce's The Miller, Martin ; Mr. Lambden's br. b. Trans port, Power ; 's ch. g. Splendour, Barker. Since the Liverpool Steeple Chase the Leamington race has been looked forward to as the event of the sporting world, and the interest was increased by the knowledge that most of the horses which made a prominent feature there were to be again competitors at Leamington. Lottery was the favourite; but the Nun, Seventy-four, Jerry, Charity, and others found their ad mirers. The betting against Lottery varied from 3t02 to 2 to 1, and 4 to 1 against Seventy-four, 6 to 1 against the Nun, 6 to 1 against Charity, and 6 to 8 to 1 against the Cannon Ball were betted. Even 8 to 1 against the Nun was obtained the night before, which was the more freely betted, as it was doubtful, till the morning, both as to whether she would start and who was to be her'rider. Leamington was, of course, filled with strangers from all parts of the country. The ground to be run over was about four miles, and it is described as being of a very trying nature for both horses and riders. Many of the leaps were very severe. The worst of them was at Witnash-brook, towards which the line led at a considerable declivity. It is thus described in the Coventry Herald and Observer :—" On arriving at this point it was necessary to make a short turn to the left, over a fence, and the brook was then close at hand, with the flags so placed that no selection was possible, and the only chance was to go straight at it, and get over in the best way that chance would let you. It was, indeed, a com plete trap, and the curses it produced among the jockeys were both loud and deep. It was at the end of a steep de clivity, with a villanous turn at the bott.m, close to the fence, which, being cleared, the brook lay at the right hand, the point where it was to be crossed being w ithin a dozen yards, and at right angles with the fence just crossed. The banks were high, broken, and soft, the opposite one being considerably raised, with pollard willows thickly set together, and leading from a bog into a ploughed ;field. Jem Mason, after looking at it, very aply described it : Come along, said lie, • it's like physic, the longer you look at it the less liking you'll have for it.' " At starting Charity took the lead, and, in the early part of the race, some falls occurred, and several fences were refused, particularly by Cannon Ball, who thus quickly threw away all his chance at the outset. The heavy ground from the summit of a hill tried the mettle of the, horses, and several were down at the second brook. Several of the horses gave in before arriving a second time at the brook, and, by the time the horses had surmounteA the opposite hill, only five competitors were left. These were Lottery, Charity, Wattle, Seventy four, and the Nun. Lottery was leading in a style which showed his power of beating everything near him with case, though all were lying well together. On coming into the road and over the bridge, everyhorse refused the fence, which was exceedingly awkward and difficult, the ground de clining steeply towards it from the road, and being very high and strong. Lottery was at length crammed through it, fol lowed by the others. One fence more led to the brook, which he cleared like a deer, and went forward in the most beautiful manner. Charity and the Nun followed him over, but Se venty-four went into the brcok without attempting to leap it, and have Oliver a smart ducking, and this example was immediately followed by Wattle. Both riders were, how lever, out in a moment and on the opposite bank , with the reins in their hands, and dragged cut their horses with as little oss of time as possible. This refreshing cold bath had an amazing effect upon Seventy-four, who dashed along at a pace which, a minute before, would have done all that could be de sired. By this time Lottery was several fields in advance, and had left his competitors apparently without a hope. But, alas! like many another whose tiiumph has seemed secure, his laurels shrunk from his grasp just as it was closing upon them. He took the wrong side of a flag, and was obliged to turn back to make it good. The race, however, was still his own, but, by another unfortunate chance, he refused his fence when about three fields from the winning-post, and Charity and the Nun, who had nearly got up to him on his first mistake, cleared it without hesitation. Charity then made a desperate struggle and was first in the winning field by two or three lengths. The Nun then came in, with Lottery about the same distance behind her. Charity, however, could not keep his place though urged to the utmost point : the Nun gained upon him, and Lottery gained upon the Nun, till a few yards from the winning -post, it was impossible to judge which was to be victor. The Nun, however, con trived to get about half-a-neck before him, and Lottery was so close behind them, that, had the race extended a dozen yards beyond, he must have won it. Seventy-four came up a bad fourth, and Wattle a worse fifth. It was immediately declared by Powell that the Nun had passed on the wrong side of a flag, which was, however, denied by her rider with energy. In consequence of this, the decision of this race was postponed, though the general opinion was, that it would be decided in favour of the Nun. Lottery looked fresh and vigorous in comparison with the others. Charity was most dreadfully and even cruelly punished. The substitution of a fixed salary of 1351. a yea r for mail coa c h guar d s , i n li eu o f all fees and perquisites from passengers, is now extended generally wan country, and a departure from the regulation, by accepting any pre sent or gratuity whatever, will subject the party to dis - I missal. —Limerick Chronicle. //1 TION. ON STRICTURES. BY FRANCIS B. CGURYZNAY, 42, Great Marlborough-street, Member of the Royal College of Surgeons, London ; and late Surgeon to the Metropolitan Infirmary for the Cure of Strictures of the Urethra. _ - London : - Simphin and Marshall. The object of this work is to point out the very serious mistakes that are, according to the author's experience, frequently made when it becomes necessary to determine on the exi s t ence or non - ex i stence of that disease tune_ d Stricture of the Urethra ; and truly he would appear, by the facts he adduces, to have fully established the neces sity of some such public animadversion as he has made, in order to guard against the frightful consequences that such errors are likely to inflict on the unconscious victim of them. We had no idea, and we imagine that but few non-professionals have, that it were possible such mistakes cou!d be made as, from Mr. Courtenay's state ments, appear to be daily perpetrated. Indeed we con fess that nothing but our firm reliance on his veracity enables us give credence to them. In the full convic tion, however, of their truth, we most earnestly recom mend the perusal of this work to all.who may be labour ieg under any disorder that, by even the remotest chance, is liable to be mistaken for Stricture, as we feel assured that they may thereby save themselves from much present mental and bodily agony, as well as future serious evils, cases being adduced where unfortunate patients have been compelled to submit to a course of painful operations for the cure of a disease which had hel'er existed. Need we say more ? THE PRESENT CORN-LAWS. In July, 1828, the Act was passed which -has since until this time been in operation. This Act pro vides that foreign grain may be admitted for con sumption at all times, and that when the average price of wheat in England shall be between 625. and 635. per quarter, there shall be paid a duty of 245. Bd. per quarter, the duty rising with the decline of price ; so that when the average is between 50s. • and 51s. it is 365. Bd. per quarter, and when the average price is be tween 435. and 445., the duty is equal t o the price, or 435. Bd. per quarter. On the other hand, as the price rises the duty falls, and when the average reaches 735. per quarter only ls. per quarter is charged on admission. This law has now been in force nearly eleven years, and in that time it is fair to presume that its good or bad ef fects have rendered themselves sufficiently apparent. There is no necessity for discussing now the merits of the previous systems,which were successively abandoned with the full consent and concurrence of the laandlords i..s inefficient or injurious to themselves. The great advantage promised by the promoters of this last-enacted law was, that it would insure steadiness of price. Let us inquire how far that promise has been fulfilled. On the day when the Act received the Royal Assent, the average price as advertised in the London Gazette, was 595. 10d. per quarter. In three months thereafter the average price rose to 78s. 9d., showing a fluctuation of more than 30 per cent. In the next twelve months the prices were somewhat more steady, having ranged from the last-mentioned price to 625. 6d., or 26 per cent. This was in the face of a constant and lame admission of foreign wheat into consumption, amount ing to more than two millions of quarters. The fluc tuations in the following twelve months ranged be tween 575. 3d. and 765., or 32 per cent., the quantity of foreign wheat admitted during that time having been beyond a million and a half of quarters. The follow ing twelve months, to October, 1831, produced about an equal fluctuation, viz., from 625. 10:1. to 78s. 10d. The quantity of foreign wheat admitted in these twelve months was about 1,200,000 quarters. From that time to the middle of October, 1832, the prices varied from 675. Bd. to 51s. 11d., still about 30 per cent., but being at a lower range, the ascending duty upon foreign wheat prevented the admission of more than 300,000 quarters. Pursuing the inquiry to the next twelve months, in which the foreign corn admitted was, only 83,000 quarters, we find a steadier market, the price having fluctuated only between 51s. 11d. and 60s. 3d., or 16 per cent. The ports continued virtually closed against foreign competition during the next fcur years, and the fluctuations then experienced were as follows : Highest Lowest Price. Price. Fluctuation. 12 Months to s. d. s. d. Oct. 1834 56 5 45 3 27 per cent. 1835 47 7 39 11 19 1836 51 1 36 0 42 1837 61 9 . 47 0 31 Since October, 1837, prices have again permitted the introduction of foreign grain. About 200,000 quarters were brought in at the dose of 1837 ; but, anticipating more favourable opportunities for the purpose, the ho:ders kept back during all the early part of 1838, and reaped the reward of their fare. sight in the month of September, by obtaining the admission of their stocks at the lowest rate of duty fixed under the present law. The fluctuation during this time has been from 51s. to 81s. 6d., or GO per cent. If we take into account the whole r.alge of prices since July, 1828, when the existing law came into onPrAtion, we shall find that theif.,lotr amounted tb — rzu per eauw -- i7I - RiL4tevor w. ?:11" examine the result, it will be impossible for anybody hereafter to pretend that the variable scale of duties has not signally failed to produce the effect, the secur ing of which formed its chief recommendation not only with those by whom it is proposed, but with the great body of landlords by whom it was promoted.—G: R.
