SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY. GLOBE.2---Another heavy blow and great discourage ment for . the Government of false pretence. If Pyrrhus exclaimed, " Another such .victory, and I am undone" —what shall exclaim. Goulburn and Gladstone, who purchase defeat—aye, and signal defeat-Let a mo-, ral cost too great, had it purchased victory I " How is the Queen's Government . to be carried on.?"---' may we ask his Grace of Wellington. Lord Mel bourne resigned in 1839, , because he had only a ma jority, somewhat under 20 (if we remember) on a West India question. May we ask what her Majesty's present Ministers propose as their course of action, when they find themselves in a minority of twenty on a West India question ? In common with our London readers, our eyes have lately repeatedly fallen on gigan tic placards respecting " that mysterious person, Miles's Boy." If Sir R. Peel passes submissively under the Caudine Forks placed for him by:last night's division, we shall no longer have any doubt where resides the real per sonal identity prefigured by that cognomen. We shall henceforth be unable to think of the plausible Premier, with any other addition than as " that mysterious person, Miles's Boy." • That is where all his mysteries of . statecraft appear to have landed him. He has tried one mystery too many— the attempt to mystify • suffering interests. For the first we remonstrated—how much better to have adopted an open policy. But an open policy was not open to those who had so long• followed a tortuous course. The party in power had chosen to place their quarrel with their opponents on the old anti slavery ground, which they accused those opponents of deserting. Now the anti s slavery ground has not been deserted ; it has been washed away. - There is no. longer any sure footing upon it, for any man, or for any party. Our slaves are emancipated ; our efforts against foreign slavery fruitless. Common sense, to say no thing of common honesty, should have dissuaded the old pro-slavery interest from taking up the old anti slavery cry. We have now seen the last agony of that hollow confederacy and pretence. We have seen the in evitable end of successively seeking to pay with words all parties. It is a currency which there is not much scruple in issuing, while the public will receive it ; but the joint issuers are not the parties most disposed to receive it themselves. They know its value ; and it was a most remarkable reckoning without his host, that Sir Robert Peel should have imagined he .could turn against his constituent class-interests the very topics they wer3 well enough pleased to hear him employ in their favour. The distinction between free and slave labour is valid to k( ep out the latter ; but not to admit the former. That is where he has made his mistake. But the West India interest, and the parties directly or indirectly connected with it, could have had no power to effect the Ministerial rout last night witnessed, but for the fact that the same tortuous course which now dis gusts those parties (because it now goes against them) is equally disgusting to all liberal minds. STANDARD.—The West Indian interest, by the aid of . the Whigs, free traders, and some discontented Conservatives, last night succeeded in obtaining a triumph over the Ministers. The triumph will be, how ever, of short duration, and it is most fortunate for the West Indian portion of the victors that it will be so. We have for twenty years closely watched the pro ceedings of the parties who have in this. country undertaken the management effectes Indian affairs, and we may say with p truth that we have not known them to take one important step which was not stupid, and fatal to their own inte rests, as well as being impolitic and unjust. Last night's proceeding seems to prove that their character is un changeable. Formerly they hoped to be able to per petuate slavery, and consequently made no provision, by educating, elevating, and promoting the increase of the negro race, to secure a labouring population when slavery should be at an end. The effect of that insolent neglect of the feeling of England - accelerated the Emancipation Act by many.years, and ,the want of the labouring popu lation, which the planters failed to provide, it is which has ruined the West Indies. These are truths to which we challenge an answer from any one. Since the passing of the Emancipation Act, instead of remedying their past neglect, they have been, in truth, negotiating for a smuggled slave trade, while they have calculated upon the perpetuity of the protection they have so long enjoyed. The Government will not indulge them in the smuggled slave trade, and hence their present alliance with the Whigs. As to the more or less of pro tection, it is a question which can hardly affect the in terests of the planters beyond one year at most. Their late slaves are their present masters ; the cul tivators of the soil in. the West Indies receive six times as much as the cultivators of the soil in Eng land ; improve their trade, and they will receive seven or - eight times as much. This, how ever, is the way to diminish, not to increase, the number of labourers, in a population finite and already inadequate. The man who, with all the advantages of a tropical climate congenial to his constitution and habits, receives as much in wages as six or seven English laboifrers, will not long labour at all. A very little more of capital distributed among the West Indian labourers will exempt them from the necessity of hiring their labour to any one, and then what will become of the planters?. We feel very sensibly for the many excellent persons who have been ruined by the gross mismanagement of their affairs, and it is for the sake of the few who have been able to fight off utter ruin to the present time that we speak thus plainly. England will not endure a slave trade, how ingeniously soever disguised, and without a slave trade, or a total change of system; there is no hope for the West Indies; but a change of system cannot be effected without with drawing the management of the affairs of the colonies from those who have so grossly mismanaged them hitherto. • WEST LONDON Iblt.ti,WlB.l.

The Black Eagle steam-vessel, under the command of Captain the Right Hon. the Earl of Hardwicke, arrived at Woolwich. from Rotterdam, at half-past six on Thurs day morning, and Captain the Earl of Hardwicke and Lieu tenant W. Peel, came on shore about nine o'clock, and pro ceeded to London by one of the river steamers from Charlton pier, Lieutenant E. B. Stewart remaining in charge of the vessel. Lieut.-Colonel Wylde, C. 8., of the Royal Horse Ar tillery, who accompanied his Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia to Rotterdam, landed soon after the arrival of the Black Eagle at Woolwich, for the purpose of paying a short visit to his family, previous to his return to Buckingham Pa lace with the earliest steamer. His Imperial Majesty the Emperor of Russia wal dressed in plain clothes when he went on board the Black Eagle at WooNvich on Sunday evening, and, with Prince Albert, greatly admired the fine looking and re markably clean detachment of Royal Marines, under Lieute ' nan Marriott, selected for the occasion to serve in the Black Eagle. His Imperial Majesty first expressed his approbation in the hearing of the men ; and observing a medal on the breast of the sergeant, and on the breasts of several of the privates, the Emperor, in the kindest manner, asked the ser geant for what service he had received it, and was answered that it was the Syrian medal, granted to those engaged in the siege of Acre. His Imperial Majesty then addressed Lieutenant Marriott, and complimented him in very flattering terms on the fine appearance of the non-commissioned officers and men under his command, and gave orders that they should at once shoulder arms as the easiest position on duty. The cloth was laid for dinner on tables taken on board at the last moment, and placed on the deck of the Black Eagle, his Imperial Majesty having expressed his desire to witness the scenery on the banks of the river Thames as the vessel pro ceeded down the river. At an early hour on Monday morn ing his Imperial Majesty, dressed in military uniform, was observed in conversation with Captain the Earl of Hardwicke on the paddle-box, and during the day by his urbanity and kind disposition completely gained the affections of all on board, having freely entered into conversation with several of the petty officers. The sergeant of the Marines was espe cially noticed by his Imperial Majesty, and by his request went through the manual exercises of the British service. The Emperor then took the sergeant's musket, and went through the exercises of the Russian service, and in showing the different positions, remarked that the British soldier in presenting arms to salute the superior ranks made three movements—placing his right hand- upon the musket, raising it to his breast, and lowering it to the proper position ; but the Russian soldier only made two movements, placing the right hand on the musket, and turning it round as it was conveyed into its position, without elevating it in the least. The Emperor added, that the British movements were certainly the most graceful, but the Russian movements answered equally well. At the conclusion of the exercises, his Imperial Majesty pre sented two sovereigns to the sergeant of the Royal Marines. The Emperor during the day repeatedly expressed - how. highly he was gratified with the speed of the vessel, and the ease and freedom from tremulous motion with which she glided through the water ; and examined the engines, and the excellent accommodation in every part of this fine vessel. All the officers onboard the Black Eagle were introduced to his Imperial Majesty, and the voyage was delightful, and everything as favourable as could be desired. On approach ing Helvoetsluys a fleet of Dutch vessels were observed, one of the war steamers having the flag of the King of the Ne therlands at the mast-head, his Majesty being on board to welcome the Emperor on his arrival. The King of the Netherlands was received by his Imperial Majesty on board the Black Eagle, about a mile before the vessel reached Helvoetsluys, and the Emperor introduced the Captain, the Earl of Hardwicke, Lieutenant-Colonel Wylde, Lieu tenant Brunton, and Lieutenant Peel, -to his Majesty, who was dressed in military uniform, with eight or nine orders and a Waterloo medal on his breast. The Royal Marines being under arms, the Emperor again praised the men for their fine appearance ; and the King of the Nether lands remarked that he had not seen finer men. The Em peror was so pleased that he presented a diamond ring to Lieutenant Marriott, and ordered that 91. should be given to the sergeant in addition to his previous gift, 5/. to each cor poral, and 4/. to each private and the drummer of the Royal Marines ; and the respective sums were handed to them on the quarter-deck of the Black Eagle at the time they were about to disembark at Woolwich yesterday morning. On entering the canal leading from Helvoetsluys, the King of the Netherlands returned to his own vessel, and in a few minutes after the Emperor of Russia left the Black Eagle amidst the cheers of the British sailors, and was received by his Majesty on the decrof his vessel amidst the most enthusiastic cheers of his Dutch subjects, who had assembled in great numbers on the banks of the canal to join in welcoming his Imperisl Majesty. The scene along the whole of the canal to the Maas river is described as having been most animated, and truly gratifying. The Emperor in again bidding farewell to the officers and crew of the Black Eagle, at Rotterdam, repeatedly bowed, uncovered, and said (placing his hand on his breast) " I thank ye—l thank ye." The British tars again cheered his Imperial Majesty as he departed with the King of the Netherlands and the authorities at Rotterdam. It appears that those on board the Lightning had not known the full extent of the Emperor's liberality to the 'crews of the two vessels that had the honour to convey his Imperial Majesty and suite to the Continent, 500/. being awarded to them instead of 400/., as previously stated. 350/. is the sum allotted to the Black Eagle, and 150/. to the Lightning. The chief engineer of the Black Eagle, in addition to a diamond ring, obtains 46/. ; the second engineer, 10/. ; and two third-class engineers, 3/. each, and the stokers 6/. each; the able seamen 4/., and the boys 3/. each, and the petty officers in proportion ; the petty officers on board the Lightning 71., able seamen 3/., and boys 2/. each, as their shares of the amount divided amongst the crew of that vessel. The Emperor's visit to this country cannot fail to have a good effect, as it has done so much to remove the prejudices which existed against him by the pub lic representations made of his character, as there has been nothing throughout his whole conduct during his visit ex cept time most courteous demeanour and affability to all, and a deep sense of the attention paid to him ; and it is impos sible I me could have assumed this appearance, had it been contras yto his disposition ; but one glimpse of .his counte nancp lmd fine bearing must have been sufficient, to the un udi red, to dispel the illusion.

TIMES. —In the, foreign exchanges the rate upon Ham burgh experienced a decline, owing to letters from that place by to=day's Mail advising a material fall there in the rate upon London-. Amsterdam was likewise rather lower, in consequence of a demand for bills upon that place, which de pression, however, did not extend to Rotterdam. Paris re mained about the same as last post. Sir Robert Peel has answered the application of the Lon don banker's for an extension of the Bank of England's power of issuing on securities beyond the 14,000,000 k in cases of emergency. He refuses to allow such extension in any other case than that already provided f or i n the sth clause of the Bill—viz.,That of a private banker ceasing to issue his own notes, and even denies that his speech, when first the mea sure was proposed, justified the supposition that a different cA4urse would be adopted. It must, however, be said on the part of the bankers, that whatever was the ori,ginal intention of the Premier, - both his own language. and the correspon dence of the Chancellor of the Exchequer with the Bank, led the most experienced persons in the City to believe that a. general power of extension was contemplated, and not Merely a power in the one particular case. 7s. 6d, Bs. 6d, GLA MORGANSHIRE, DELIGHTFUL MARINE RESIDENCE, near the flourishing Town of SWANSEA.

PORTSMOUTIT, JUNE 12.—The Nautilus, 10, Lieutenan Commander W. Tringham, is awaiting sailing orders in the harbour; she, was last from Guernsey, whither she had been dispatched with troops. The Prince George transpOrt, Lieutenant E. Ward, agent, which came into harbour on Saturday, is taking in victual ling stores at the Royal Clarence-yard, with which she will proceed to Deptford. The Emerald, tender to the St. Vincent, Second Master Samuel Baggs, and the Echo steam-tug, returned from Ply mouth, the former on Illonday, and the latter on Sunday. The Echo had had a most hazardous and unpleasant voyage down, and great blame is attributed to the authorities, who ordered 'such a vessel on so important a service as that of conveying 150 valuable seamen hence to Plymouth, whereby their lives were endangered. The Echo is not fit for a rough sea, and plunged so violently as to be compelled to put into Torbay on Thursday, consequently she did not make Ply mouth until Friday evening, some time after the Emerald, which had encountered the gale, and beat down with ease. The authorities at Plymouth expressed their surprise at such a vessel as the Echo being trusted on such a voyage. The Cornwall freight-ship (late a transport under the agency of Lieutenant A. B. Howe) arrived on Monday from Hong-Kong, with a detachment of the 55th Regiment on board. She is at Spithead awaiting orders to disembark her troops and cargo. The Sylvia, 6, surveying-vessel, and tender to the Sea flower, Commander N.obilliard, sailed on Sunday evening with supernumeraries for Plymouth, whence she will return to her station at Jersey. The Commander and crew of the Sylvia received a severe reprimand from Captain Rowley, the flag captain, by order of the Commander-in-Chief for their presumed connivance in the attempted smuggling of some tobacco last week, and for which two of the crew, named Rook and Payne were arraigned before the borough magis trates of Portsmouth yesterday, but escaped punishment in consequence of the disreputable evidence given by a Coast guard commissioned boatman, named Toby, who admitted having given one of the prisoners brandy whilst in his cus tody, and then swore he made a confession of the smuggling. The following men of war were thus distributed in China on the 25th of February :—At Kong-Kong, the Agincourt, 72, Captain H. W. Bruce, flag of Rear-Admiral Sir Thomas Cockrane.

The Pantaloon, 10, is being rapidly proceeded with for re-commission, to compete with the new class 12-gun brig squadron ; as also the Waterwitch, now building by Mr. White, of Cowes, which is reported ready for launching on Saturday next, when she will be sent here to be rigged. The Sydenham steam- frigate, Lieutenant-Commander R. D. B. Mapleton, passed through Spithead, on her way to her destination, this evening. The Prometheus steam-sloop, Commander John Hay, went without the harbour this afternoon to try her engines, after having had their defects made good; s h e is rap idl y compietp THEI RETENTIVE MEMORY OF lIIS MAJESTY TIIE Ememt OR OF RUSSIA.—When the present Rear-Admiral Thomas: Brown was Captain of the Talavera, 74, in 1826, he bad the honour of taking to St. Peters burgh lAs Grace the Duke of Northumberland on a spe cial min sion. On this occasion Captain Brown was presented to the lc_.'mperor, who did him the honour to converse with him on several occasions, particularly inquiring in what part of Engfand he, Captain Brown, resided, and desired that when he, I the Emperor, visited England, Captain Brown would not' - fail m paying his respects to him. On his Ma jesty's recent visit to our gracious Queen he did not forget his old acquaintance, and the consequence was, that on Friday Admiral Ii rown was honoured by a . Queen's messenger being sent to his residence at Southsea, desiring his presence at dinner tthat day at Windsor. The Admiral proceeded im mediately- to town, but did not reach Windsor in time for dinner ; 1 autvever, he had the honour of joining the illus• trious 'ch., in the evening, of receiving a gracious recep tion from her Majesty the Queen, and a cordial recognition from his 11 fajesty the Emperor of Russia.

QUEEN.—On Wed nesday, a fie .e iron vessel, built by Messrs. Thomas Wilson and Co., No; th-shore, was launched from their building yard, amidst a large concourse of spectators. She is for James H artl y, Esq., London, and is intended for the London and Exeter line, for which she appears to be admirably adapted.. She is 140 feet in length, 22 feet in breadth (or beam ), 13i feet ir.:depth of hold, and admeasures about 330 tons. Her model wa o'rnuch admired by the nautical gentlemen present. We, have seen no iron vessel, of whatever size, more strongly built—hi ~r t: ainnest plates being half-inch thick ; and, though very sharp ; at the extremities, such are her bearings that she is suite , I for a light draft of water. We need scarcely add, that h i fidelity of workmanship she is excellpd by no iron vessel yet turned out. A handsome figure-head of her Majesty or aaments the bow, with carved work on each side, and on tli e stern to correspond, representing sea-nymphs, tritons, marine trophies, &c., boldly t hrown out in relief. A numb er of ladies and gentlemen were accommodated dace, o n a scaffol, at the bow. At abo ut a quarter to one o'll being it i readiness, the word was givin, the "daggers" were kr iocked down, and she almost immediately glided sublime' v and steadily into her destines eel ent, amid dse t the ent l Eusiastic cheers and good w ishes d multitu on each side. The ceremony of christening was gracefully perform rid by Miss Wilson Green. She floated very lightly, and me! .ented a very rakish appearance. She will, we learn be fitteil with engines of 140 horse-power, on the most ap proved principle, and we have no doubt will turn out a re markably swift vessel. We may add, that the Duke of Lan caster, the splendid wooden ship (to which we alluded last week) , also built by Mr. Wilson, will be launched next spring • tides, ---Liverpool paper. --- _ - -- - , • --7 1---- , • • .. •". , ..-il4.- / , ,' --',/,‘.. . . 4.„•.,.• !•., ~;;" ), ••>' '-' .

ANOTHER PEEP AT PEEL'S FRANKENSTEIN. , TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—The monster whiCh Peel has constructed in the' churchyards of Error, from mouldering absurdifies and defunct blunders, presents a subject foetilraest idterminable obserya- But I purpoPely`abstain , from commenting on some of : its:parts, sincewith his surpassing talent for self-contra-' diction—the Premier has, in' one or two, provided !means, if skilfully, used, for destroying everyotlier,part of his structure. In this communication, therefore, I shall confine mYself to directing the attention of your readers, to the two main ob jects of Sir Robert's suicidal plan for destroying the com merce of the empire, and with it (poor compensation 1) his own administration. The first object of this admirer of free trade principles in the abstract—(an admiration like that of the gourmand for a loVely to give a monopoly of the paper ciicu- - ciliation to the Bank- of England ; the second, to banish paper and substitute gold, to the utmost extent to which, by lunatic legislation, it can be effected. Let us consider the effect of these measures — First,—As to the Bank of England monopoly. At present that institution has a number of break Waters, or, to change the metaphor, outworks, in the private and joint-stock banks of issue—notwithstanding the perverse and suicidal ingenuity (borrowed, doubtless, from the matchless Premier)—with which the Directors have been labouring to destroy them, by, getting the conductors of several banks to give up their issue, and take Threadneedle-street paper.' In spite of their. efforts, however, there remain a great number of banks issu • jog their own notes. - Upon the occurrence of a panic, or .drain of specie, these outworks are first attacked—the run upon them warns the' Directors of the Bank of Englind to prepare for an attack on their citadel. They get time for preparation;' and, more over, all the energies of the conductors of these banks are employed in collecting 'gold frOm the country at large, to meet the paper pouring in upon them. • - Let our prince of blunderers succeed in his object of sup prespion of all paper but that issued in Threadneedle-street, and the attack is transferred at once to the doors of the Bank of England; and instead of having time to provide for a part of the paper circulation, the Directors are required instantly to provide for the whole. Oh, delightful results of the favour of an intelligent Minister. Truly; Sir Bruin, you will have killed the fly on : your sleeping friend's nose, but I fear the nose aforesaid will never recover its original formation. Now, for the second object, the substitution of gold for paper. The first slight objection is, the cost of this desiderated engine of transfer—twenty millions of gold must be paid for in goods of that value—twenty millions of paper may, possibly cost ten thousand pounds — difference against " Johnny," 19,990,000/.l—a trifle, certainly, for the said un lucky gentleman to disburse in these prosperous times. As the circulating medium is merely the machinery of transfer; I suppose that our illustrious " Chief Blunderer of her Gracious Majesty, Victoria the First," will advise our millowners to exchange the wooden, iron, and brass wheels of their factories, for gold ones—the principle is precisely the same. But the cost of a metallic currency is not the only point to be considered. At present, if a sudden demand arises for gold, (as for example, from extensive importation of corn,) no disturb ance in our circulation need arise—we have only to issue as much paper as will fill up the gap occasioned by the exporta tion of gold. But make our circulation altogether metallic, (Peel's object), and there is no possible means of filling up the void. Oh ! sublime blunderer ! who shall sneak thy surpassing merits ! To the Standards and Heralds it was given only to vituperate commerce ; to thee it is (for our iniquities) given to destroy it. History has recorded the deeds of one Attila, " the scourge of God"—it has pleased the Supreme to produce and place in power, a second. COMMON SENSE. • ‘e^ OPENING OF THE OXFORD RAILWAY. - Another great attraclipn to our festival will be the easy and short, method of conveyance - lioii- offered to by the opening of the line .of railway between .

'rte exceedingly smooth,: and:the riding pleasant and comfortable . , being a further configination of the superiority of the brawl gauge Over the narrow one used in the north of England. The:line of rail. between Oxford and the Abingdon-road sta tion, a distance of seven - miles, commands a view of country one of the most beautiful that can be imagined. Passing ilinek, , ieyi it crosses the road to Abingdon about mile from Oxford,-under a brick bridge; . it passes on a short distance froni the Isis, through Kennington, by Sandford, to nine hani, the seat of the Archbishop of York, where, it Crosses the 'water, and shortly. arrives 'at the 'Abingdon station, a pretty building Of liriek and stone, situated about three miles from Abingdon. Another Mile and we are at Appleford sta tion, a temporary shed. After passing under another brick - bridge, then two miles of uninteresting country, and w e are at Didcot, a village of ,a most-we were going to say-rue ful, but we suppose it will be better to say rural aspect ; frighted out Of its - `propriety by the 'notoriety it has lately assumed in being the place of junction with a branch line to the Great Western.. :If any one is desirous of seeing a vil lage. in its natural rudeness, of which they 'may have some times heard, we would. adviie them to run down as-far as Dideot, before it is transformed by the civilisation now daily • passing through it. Its clutrai (we speak of the exterior), has the appearance of , a barn, whitewashed on the grand oc casion of opening a new line of railivay, with a small Wooden hayloft at the top, meant, we, suppose, to supply the place of a tower. The entrance is ared brick portico, contrasting well with the whitewash , of the main building. Should the reader defer his visit till winter we are told he must inquire for Mudcot instead•of Didcot. The temporary wooden station, erected or being erected, is, we imagine, from its scantiness, intended to last only a few days. From Didcot to Paddington is 53 miles, making a total of 63 miles between Oxford and London. The fares are-Ist class, 15s. ; 2d class, 10s.; 3d class (only once a day), 6s.

We had almost forgotten to mention that the station at Oxford is entirely a wooden one. It is situated in the first field on the right hand side of the road after passing overt' Folly-. bridge, and commands a good view of Oxford. GREAT NORTH OF ENGLAND RAILWAY.—The rail- way communication between London and Edinburgh is ra pidly approaching corripletion. To-morrow the line of railway already formed will be extended from Darlington to .. Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and on that day the Chairman of the London and Birmingham Railway (Mr. Carr Glyn), and a • party of his friends, will dine with Mr. Hudson, the Chair man of the Midland, fork and North Midland, and New castle and Darlington Railways, and a party of his friends, at the Assembly-rooms; in Newcastle. The entire distance between London and Newcastle, upwards of 300 miles, will be accomplished, it is calculated, in twelve hours, including all stoppages. From Newcastle to Berwick-upon-TWeedi a distance of 60 miles, a line of railway has been projected, ands surveys made by . the east coast, and thence to Edinburgh, little more than 50 miles, a line is already in course of forma- • , tion. On leaving the station at Euston-square, the traveller passes 83 miles along the London and Birmingham Railway to Rugby, thence 49* miles along the Midland Counties Railway to Derby, thence 63* miles along the North Mid- .. land Railway to Normanton, thence 23 miles along the. York and North Midland Railway to the Cathedral City of York, thence 45 miles along the Great North of England .. Railway to Darlington, thence 27* miles along the Newcastle, Darlington, and Durham Junction Railway to Workington, thence 5* miles along the Pontop and South Shields Railway (formerly the Stanhope and Tyne) to Brockley Whins, where . the line diverges .to Sunderland and Shields, and thence 03i - miles along the Brandling Junction Railway to Newcastle, or rather to Gateshead, 'on the south bank of the river Tyne, where a magnificent station is being erected. Such is the route from London to Newcastle, that will be available to the public by railway on and after Tuesday next • - A more direct line to York from London has been projected through the Eastern Counties by way of Bedford, Huntingdon, and Lin coln, which will shorten the distance by about 30 miles, and pass over the most extensive plane in England, uniting the valhes of the Trent and Ouse, by direct railway communica tion with the metropolis. • ACCIDENT TO MR. PEER, THE SOUTHAMPTON COACIINIAN.—On Friday an accident of a dangerous nature . happened to the above well-known coachman, on entering London. It appears he was driving his coach past Apsley House, about six o'clock, at a gentle rate, when two mum buses, which were racing against each other, endeavoured to pass 'him, the wheels of one of them came in contact with the off fore wheel of his coach, the force of which precipi tated Mr. Peer off the box ; he fell upon his head on the kerb stone, and was picked up quite insensible, and bleeding profusely from the mouth and ears. He was instantly carried to St. George's Hospital, when it was ascertained he had - received a severe concussion of the brain, and had broken his - collar bone and two of his ribs. He now lies in a very dan gerous state, and little hopes are entertained of his recovery. Mr. Peer is about fifty years of age, and has been many years on the road. . NARROW ESCAPE.—On Tuesday last, as Mr. Par ratt, of Church-street, Westminster, was about getting on bdard the steamer Jasmine, at London -bridge, he unfortu nately fell into the Thames, and immediately disappeared - he, however, instantly rose up again, and held up his hands, • when Mr. P. Badger, barrister-at-law, of Cambridge-street, Hyde-park, who was standing by, at great risk, of being pilled in, immediately went o n his knees and held out his stick, which Mr. Parrett caught hold of and held till other assistance was obtained, when he was rescued from his perilous s it u ation, to the great gratification of all present. J THREE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY-FIVE POUNDS IN . BANK OF ENGLAND NOTES DESTROYED BY FIRE.-011 Mon day evening Mr. W. Skinner, a boot and shoe maker, carry ing on rather au extensive bus iness in Hi g h. street, tratford, went with a 20/. note into his cellar, for the purpose of depo siting it with several others (which it appears he kept in a tin kettle) to the amount of 380/. ; - when in the act of depositing • the 20/. note in question some, person entered his shop, and he left the cellar, for the purpose of ascertaining what was *anted, and on his return he found the whole of the notes;. mounting to 440/., in flames, and he only succeeded in saving I'sl. It is supposed the notes were ignited by a spark falling from the candle.

OF AN IRON CHEST On Monday morning, between. d five and six o'clock, Police constable steamer, it appears, had just been brought to,: after a passage , from London, when the engineer, a young man, named constable Redmed, 179 V, who was onduty upon Clapham common, found a large iron chest; it was locked, and had John Goble, set to work to cletui the machinery; to enable paiuted on it the words ".Waterman Steamboat Company, • ),- hint to do this, he, with the stoker, - imprudently got in amongst Woolwich."

GLEANINGS OF GREATNESS TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN SIR,—We have been hitherto engaged only . with the grand and majestic, in considering the vast imaginings of Attila's rival. Let us give our jaded minds a little repose, by suffering our eyes to rest on the minor beauties of his work. In all we shall find the traces of his powerful mind ; and, as the mighty soul of a Nero could turn from the contemplation of a burning metro Polis to the enjoyment of the agonies of an animal, so we shall find the pre-eminent destructiveness of our matchless Premier as decidedly marked in the details, as in the grand principles of a measure, to which history can present no parallel. Let us consider his rule, that no banker is to have out, ih any one week, more than the average of his circulation for the last two years. The fact is, of course, unknown to the all - medd ler, but ex tremely well known to thousands of others, that the circula tion of a bank, especially in an agricultural district, instead of being always nearly the same, is incessantly fluctuating, and the manager of such a bank can foretel when the channel of his river will be overflowed, when it will be scarcely half filled. . Let us suppose that, at one period of the year, the farmers connected with a particular bank are obliged to lean heavily on it; that at another (when their returns come in), they can reduce their debt—that each period may be roundly taken at half a year, and that the circulation of such bank, reaching to 200,0001. in the earlier, sinks to 100,0001. in the later period. It is clear that the average of the year will be 150,0001., and this amount the banker may keep out all the year round. Alas ! during 26 weeks the permission is valueless, since he wants no more than 100,000/. ; and during the remaining 26 the restriction cramps his powers to the extent of 33 per cent., he having the power to keep out 150,000/. only, and recintring just a third more ! Now for branches. On the present system each branch keeps not only its average issue, but avoids margin beyond, since its average is always liable to be exceeded. On Peel's Procrustes system no branch can hold more than its average, because, by possibility, branches A, B, and C, might otherwise issue more; and D, E, F, just as much as their average ; and thus a total excess be produced, subjecting the head bank to heavy penalties. Now every one (but Sir R. Peel) knows that an average consists of the total of a series of excess and deficieney ; if the average circulation of a branch, for example, is 10,0001., this average will consist of issues rising, perhaps, to 18,0001., fall ing to 2,000/, and by Sir Robert Ruin-all's system the profit upon all beyond 10,000/. must be sacrificed. Suppose, for example, that the Bank of has ten branches, to which 10,000/. a piece is assigned, the first five may have upplications for 12,000/., one with another; the other five only to the extent of 8,000/., the application for. 2,000/.. out of the 12,0001. at the first five branches must be refused, for the agents cannot tell the state of the iron chests of the other branches. • ' But the want of accommodation to customers, 'and loss of interest to the Bank, is not all—we must look to the depositor. Sir John Broadland, living at a distance from the county tOwn, places 3,000/. with branch bank A., and enters the agent's parlour one morning,' stating that he has purchased a,pretty little farm, just on the confines of his property, and has engaged a place in the mail from --- (the nearest town) for that evening, having promised to meet his solicitor and the seller's in Loudon next day, to pay for the farm. The unhappy agent turns pale, and, looking like the man who " Ope'd Priam's curtain in the dead of night, and would Have told him half his Troy was burnt," tells Sir John that the deposit having laid with their firm three years un changed, he, the agent, was not prepared for the demand — that, of the 0,000/. allowed him from head- quarters, 9,0001. was used up. He offers to mount his horse and gallop to head-quarters ; but Sir J. reminds him that they are distant 25 miles, and that the mail starts in two hours 1 Pleasant I—Both parties consign Sir R. to a place more distinguished for warmth than comfort, and separate in ill humour. •• COMMON SENSE. ----7" 1 the um (with they committee • Aaron Char grint gnarl Thos . at, Mr. .3 and Mr. DO was given to ary the ir Wll* 4ations• e na it ity of 110,_: hich Dt `` / id 1 03 ' 342, a oth paid there —Agreed tole, m the Ece SAthe % CO t r ited a 4- coeval !nue ,„,et 'ufnell. ,osed an 6la the latter an :0 that 0f ving Clrcior • the sh :s; , eign g 0 RS L "e,oold day 13: 1(11 "tbe l e d noir Ling w e hil' or s'% s or F o r fiftee, • the witi* .. d for ,~hib ba se ghtraP' . g voP he c o if cert l Ley of me .he 114 ' b e Ot W hie bil l 5 4 ; 6 " sh op' It of ' 5 , 6d' most h oe tO Pu r S gol he bs ' hawker and ;30 11 ' e d that Pe' ci r t g besi )u ,n agg r- fo ce can ig • v,hat..,‘ vay p* It is geO Pound" of d e ve a c' . 0 5 1 fled 90 P °° 0 n as r - for to pri° >f thoti‘ili- p5l 1 m u a ; b a wls s''ere 4inct i°ll ;itf , Iler Pen isork. d 5 5 rst a pO. . k throat ;;cl3 fed l're litf , for retov. oo g: rage the [its.
