THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who are bound by their deed of constitution not to dispute any policy, unless they can prove that it was obtained by fraudulent misrepresentation ; the great aim and object having Leen to render Life Policies COMPLETE SECURI TIES and NEGOTIABLE DOCUMENTS, which shall owe their value to the certainty of the contracts upon which they are founded, and be independent of the liberality or caprice of these who shall be in the management of the affairs of the Company when the claims arise; and for this purpose the Company have, by a clause in their deed of constitution, unhesitatingly deprived themselves of the power of objecting to any policy, unless they undertake to prove that it was obtained from them by fraudulent misrepresentation. The regulations common to all other Life Companies, which make the validity of assurance contracts dependent upon the perfect correct ness of the many statements required from a proposer for a Life Policy, and which have given rise to almost all the questions which have been argued In the Courts, and to many extra judicial com promises, are thus entirely abrogated ; and nothing but frond, proved to have been committed against them, can vitiate a policy granted by this Company. THIS IS THO ONLY COMPANY from whore the assured on the mutual principle, receive the whole of the mutual accumulations, and also a guarantee from the Shareholders for the sums assured. THIS IS THE ONLY COMPANY who bind themselves to pay the sums in the policies, although the debts for which they were effected shall have been liquidated before the claims arise. The Company considering it only Just towards the assured that where premiums have keen paid for assuring a given amount, that amount should he paid ; and they undertake to de so without reference to the state of the accounting between the assured and his debtor. THIS IS ALMOST THE ONLY COMPANY who grant in favour of creditors whole world policies, whereby the debt is secured, although the debtor should go beyond the limits of Europe. The premiums calculated according to the Carlisle Tables, are lower than usual upeu young lives, where participation in the profits is not required ; and for then assurances, which, at the option of the assured, may' be continued for life, the rates are as low as a due re gard to complete security will permit. The division of profits is annual, and the next will be made in De cember of the present year. This institution offers many important and substantial advan tages with respect both to Life Assurances and Deferred Annuities. The assured has, on all occasions, the power to borrow, without ex pense or forfeiture of the Policy, two-thirds of the premium pail, (see table) ; also the option of selecting benefits, and the conversion of his interests to meet other conveniences or necessity. Assurances for terms of years are granted on the lowest possible rates. F. FERGUSON CA-'ROUX, Sec. L EGAL and EQUITABLE LIFE ASSIMANCE SOCIETY. Capital, One )Ifilion, in 10,000 Shares of 100/. each.

BY THE HALF PREMIUM PLAN only one-half of the first seven years' premium is required, the Other half being payable at at the convenience of the assured; thus allowing a Policy to be continued for seven years at one-half of the usual rate, or to be dropped at one-half of the usual sacrifice, and entitling the assured, seven years hence, when loss of health may prevent him from effecting A new Assurance, to continue a Policy at a rate of premium applicable to an age seven years younger. The Half-premium plan of Assurance, as. practised by this Company, thus enables persons to retain to their own. use the one-half of the premiums for the first seven years, at 51. per cent. interest. Thus, suppose the or dinary premium for an assurance of 5001. to be 101., the first pay ment by the half-premium plan will be five guineas, being the one half of the 101., and interest for the retained half; and, if death should occur in the first year, the sum of 5001. would be paid less the 51. retained. The assured may thus have the use for the first year of 51.; for the second, of 10/. ; and so on till the end of the seventh year, when the retained sums, amounting to 351., may either be repaid, or retained at 51. per cent. interest until death, when the 351. would be subtracted from the 5001. then payab. :Vibe Company.

SOUTITANrrO'N, FRIDAY.—A general meeting of the So ciety was held this morning at the Victoria-rooms, at which the President elect, the Duke of Richmond, was inducted into Office. The Marquis of DOWNSHIRE, in proposing a vote of thanks to the retiring President, Earl Spencer, spoke in the most flattering terms of the conduct of that nobleman in his ex ertions, not only during the period of his office, but at all times, to promote the interests of the; Society, and of the agriculturists generally.

There was a ball last night (according to custom), which took place at the Victoria-rooms, and was very fully at tended, upwards of 400 persons being present, among whom were the Earl and Countess of Hardwicke, Lady Mary and the Misses Long, Lady Henry and Miss Paulet, Mrs. and the Misses Colt, : Colonel Sir Ge-rge and Lady Burgoyne, Sir H. Paulet, Admiral Dacres and family, Captain Dacres, R.N., Mr., Mrs., and the Misses Welds, of Liilworth Castle ; Mr. Hope, M.P. ; the officers of the Grenadier Guards, from Win chester; the officers of the Victory, Excellent, and others of her Majesty's ships at Portsmouth ; Mrs. Abbott and the Misses Abbott, the Misses Duke, Colonel Henderson, &c. This morning the show yard was again visited by many thousand persons, many of them attending for the purpose of purchasing some of the stock intended for sale, A great portion of the stock, brought only for exhibiting, not in tended for sale, was removed from the g roun d an d sen t o ff b y special trains rom the temporary station made for the occa siOn at Portswood. THE SALE OF STOCK. The sale commenced in the show yard at ten o'clock, under the auspices of Mr. A. Fletcher, of Milbrook, a well-known auctioneer in this part of the country. A great number of persons were present at the sale, not less, indeed, than 2,000. Several of the lots fetched high prices, and excited keen competition, but many others were bought in. Mr. John Cooper's short-horned bull fetched 100 L, three years old and upwards. Mr. John Herbert's short-horned bull, four years and three months old, 60/. Mr. H. L. Mow's short-horned bull, two years and eight months old, 63/. Mr. G. H. Sidebotliam's pure short-horned bull, two years and eight months old, 1451. Some other bulls of the same breed fetched prices varying from 100/. to 50/. The short. horned cow of the Rev. T. Cator brought thirty- - five guineas ; and another cow belonging to the same gentle man, 36/. A short-horned heifer of the Duke of Devonshire's, two years and six months old, 52 guineas. Sir C. Morgan's fine short-horned yearling heifer, 50/. , Amongst the Herefords, a bull of - Mr. W. F. Hobbs's sold for 50 guineas. A Channel Islands bull, belonging to Mr. W. G.

Couleur, 26/. • Mr. Robins's cow of the same breed, realised 29/., and others were sold at the samerate. A thorough-tired stallion of the Duke of Richmond's fetched only 37/. ; but was evidently of much higher value. It was probably bought in. The Southdown rams sold generally for good prices, vary ing from 361. to 101. Mr. J. M. Goodlake's ram was the one that obtained the highest price. Very few sold for less than 201. Amongst the long-wools, a Cotswold ram, belonging ! to Mr E. Handy, brought 21/. A pen of five shearling Lincoln and Leicester ewes, teen months old, bred by Mr. James Linton, realised the s m of 50/. The sale, however, is not finished at the moment of is. patching our communication, and any further particulltri must be reserved to our next. THE GOODWOOD CUPS. 1 The groups in silver to be run for at the ensuing Go - wood races are two in number ; they have just been e_ e cuted by the Messrs. Garrard, from the designs and mod is of Mr. Edward Cotterill. They are as interesting in s - ject and as fine in design as any of the superb and classi al compositions which of late years have emanated from t e hand of the highly gifted sculptor to whose genius we are indebted for a vast improvement and refinement upon the old racing cup. , The subject of the first is an incident in the life te f Llewellyn, Prince of Wales. Llewellyn, returning to his home, is related to have been met at the threshold by his favourite deer-hound Gellert, whose jaws being bloody, aild the cradle in which the child of the hero was sleeping over turned, he imagines that the dog has destroyed the infailt, and under that impression kills him. On lifting the cradlr, however, he finds his child alive, and discovers the de d I body of a wolf, whi c h hi s faithful dog had destroyed in e - deavouring to save the life of his master's child. Such s the romantic and touching incident which Mr. Cotterill h4s delineated in sculpture. The Prince is represented as having just dismounted, and still holding the reins of his charger. He appears ascending a raised platform of three steps, which may be supposed to be the entrance to his dwelling, The horse is depicted as under the influence of fear, a state which is peculiar to that animal when in sight of a wolf This trait in the character of the horse, it may be recollected, is very vividly described by Cooper in his novel of the " Last of the Mohican a." The Welsh chieftain is clad in is tunic, with an under coat, his arms and legs being covered with mail. On his head he wears a bassinet with a princely coronet, surmounted by a dragon's crest. The figure of the Prince is finely proportioned and elegant in attitude. An expression of joyful surprise is given to his features as he lifts, while ascending the steps, the cradle, and finds his child uninjured. The little urchin, too, is made to recognise his father and stretches out his arms to greet him. This group is decidedly one of the very finest ever executed for a race course. The second group is conceived in fine contrast with the foregoing. The subject is more homely, not so full of tender interest, but, nevertheless, an attractive one. It is taken from Sir Walter Scott's novel of" Waverley," and represents the meeting between the Baron of Bradwardyne and Davie Gellatley, accompanied with his two dogs, Ban and Buscar. The figure of the baron is detailed with the strictest adhe rence to Sir Walter's description ; the small French cocked hit, the waistcoat, brigadier's the wi g , t h e l aced coat and embroidered jack - boots and heavy riding-whip, ha ve all been duly and picturesquely rendered by the sculpt or . The countenance of th e o ld gent l eman is strikingly charac teristic, and his seat on th e h orse h as b een pronounced by competent judges to be p er f ect. Th e h orse i tse l f i s one of the most beautiful specimens o f mo d e lli ng w hi c h M r. C otter i ll has yet produced. This group, though not so striking as the first-mentioned, is full of beauty, and evinces a consummate knowledge of the principles of composition. ALLEGE OF CIVIL ENGINEERS. prizes t o t h e pup il s of th i s Co at the instit u ti on , a t distributionplaee yesterday, ,d Putney. His Royal Highness t h e D uke of Cambridge, a tt en d e d by Baron Knesebeck , a rrived at the College preci se ly a t The lleg e an t n o u ok al two o'clock, and proceeded over the whole of the building, examining with much attention the engineer ing and foundry departments, attended by the lion.

His Royal Highness evidently took very great int( rest in the various pi eces o f work manship executed by the pupils, and e x p resse d hi mse lf highly satisfied with the exhibitions of their skill. On entering the dining-loom of the college, where the pupils and company were assembled, his Royal High ness requested the Hon( urable E. P. Howard to take the chair. In compliance with his Royal Highness's com mands, the Hon. Gentleman assumed the office. The Rev. Mr. PAGE said the report was too volumi nous to he reed. Ae felt extremely happy in having so favourable a report to give. He was happy to say that he never had witnessed so much labour so Kell and so cheerfully performed as the pupils had performed dtiring the last year. As to the con duct of the young men, all the different professors were full of praise. Instead of having received, as might have been expected, complaints from the inhabit ants of Putney, he had received nothing but compliments upon the extremely good behaviour of the pupils. The Reverend Gentleman then stated that he had received lettefs froin the Earl of Ripon, Lord Fitzroy Somerset, and others, in which they lamented they would not be able to attend at the distribution of the prizes ; and amongst them he had also received one from Captain Moorsom, who had received three young men from the institution; in which be states that they were now learn ing to apply that science practically which they had pre viously learnt in theory.

After the distribution of the prizes, His Royal Highness the Duke of CAMBRIDGE said that he was extremely glad to hear so gratifying and satisfactory an account of the pupils, not only of the progress they had made in their studies, but of their ex cellent behaviour. He begged of them to continue in their good course, for they would find good behaviour as advantageous and necessary in civil engineering as in anv other walk of life. : the Hon. E. P. HOWARD said it was his most grati fying task to dismiss them for the vacation, during which he hoped They would be extremely happy, and enjoy in perfect health the leisure they had so well earned, and would return to the College with new vigour, to resume their studies. He then mentioned that two of the Pro fessors would leave, but he hoped that their appoint ments would be filled up in such manner as only to in crease the advantages of the institution. His Royal Highness departed, and partook of an ele gant dejeuner a la fourchette in the hOuse of the Rev. J. R. Page. . _ Amongst thc , compan3, we noticed Lord Courtenay Dr. Reid, Sir I. K. Brunel, the Rev. E. Golding, &c. KING'S COLLEGE, LONDON. DISTRIBUTION OF PRIZES. Yesterday the distribution of prizes to the pupils of the schools in union with the King's College took place in the large theatre of the establishment. The accus tomed delivery of orations was also gone through. The chair was occupied by the Lord Bishop of Lichfield (late Principal), and there were present the Rev. Dr. Sheppard, the Rev. W. Jelf, D.D., Principal ; the Rev. J. R. Major, D.D. Head Mas ter. There was also present M r . Ch ar l es Kemble, the eminent tragedian who appeared to take a lively inte rest in the proceedings, and paid the most marked atten tion to the delivery of the dramatic orations. The seats in the gallery were occupied by a fashionable assemblage of ladies, and indeed the theatre was crowded in every part. Shortly after two o'clock the chair was taken by the Lord Bishop, who was most enthusiastically received by all present. After some introductory proceedings, the Professors announced that the speeches would be first delivered. Throughout the delivery of the addresses there was much applause, and his Lordship at the conclusion congratulated the pupils in very flattering' terms. The prizes for proficiency in the several classes of Latin, Greek, Hebrew, divinity, mathematics, drawing, French, German, and arithmetic, were then distributed by the chairman, each being accompanied by a suitable address. The prizes principally consisted of valuable and superbly bound literary works. In the drawing classes there were four silver medals awarded. In the first class the competitors were Messrs. Cotman, Mathews, Dytnes, Burrowes, and Galsworthy. In the second, Messrs. Brackley, E. M. Majo, Peel, Masset, East wood, Prettyman, Morrison, Thiekbroom. The suc cessful candidates in the several departments of tlassics were Messrs. Harrison, Mackey, Connolly, Hough, Peel, Irvin, Wilson, Gibbes, Allan, Robinson, Hansard Freney, Webb, II ilson, Turvill, Painter, Milos, New man, Morschelles, &c. THE DISTRIBUTION.

The speeches and the distribution having terminated, The CHAIRMAN congratulated the pupils for their diligence and industry in the prosecution of their studies during the year. He had met them on many occasions, particularly during his connexion with the College, but he knew of no more joyous occasion to meet the pupils of the King's College School than during the distribution of their rewards. He could bear testimony to the great attention that had always been bestowed by the pupils on their studies, and to the manner in which the Head Master and other officers had discharged their respective duties.—(Applause.) His Lordship, after some further laudatory remarks on the discipline and general character of the school, con cluded his address amidst much applause. The Rev. Dr. SHEPPARD proposed, and the Rev. Dr. WILSON seconded, a vote of thanks to the Lord Bishop for presiding. His LORDSHIP, after duly acknowledging the compli ment, retired, and the proceedings then terminated. THE TEN HOURS BILL. At a delegate meeting of the operatives of Lancashire, the following letter from Lord Ashley was read to the delegates : "London, July 18, 1844. " Sir,—You have done me the honour, in conjunction with the other Members of the Short Time Committee, to request my advice respecting the course you should now adopt in pursuit of a Bill for the further limitation of the hours of labour. "In the first place, I most heartily applaud your zeal and determination never to relax your efforts until you shall have obtained this just and worthy result of so many years of anxiety and toil. So far as my services are of any avail, they shall be unceasingly at your command, though it may be treated as a serious question at your meeting, whether you ought not to find some other Member less obnoxious than myself, and whose name is not associated with constant defeat. •• In the second place, I would counsel you to begin by an address to your employers by an appeal from the work people of each mill to the proprietor of it, and earnestly, though respectfully, to entreat their sympathy and co-operation towards the abatement of your excessive labour. It is a matter of the highest importance that this great end should be at • tained, if possible, in unison with the feelings of your employers, and not in despite of tin m. I cannot too strongly urge the expediency, nay, the necessity, with a view to the speedy and happy adjustment of the question, of a good understanding between master and man. You will, most certainly, by such a line of action, win the approval and sympathy of the country. Should you be successful you will have attained all that you desire ; and, should you fail, you will have, at least, the satisfaction of having made every reasonable and becoming effort, and of proving to the world that amendment is altogether hopeless without the aid of the Legislature. lam deeply thankful for the success of the Factory Bill, which has just become law. My great difficulty was to combine the safety of that measure with the con • stant assertion of our ten hours principle. I was sure, even on the night of the first majority, that eventual success was beyond our reach in the present session ; I bent, therefore, all my efforts to secure this enactment, and yet lose no proper opportunity of demanding more. We were in constant peril ; but, by God's blessing, we saved the Bill ; and I venture to anticipate from it very great and lasting benefits. " With many and fervent prayers for your public•and private welfare, believe me _ " Your very sincere friend and servant, " ASHLEY. " To the Chairman of the Lancashire Central Short Time Committee, Manchester." WEST INDIA PINES.—On Friday there was another sale of about 5,000 of this esteemed fru►t in Pudding-lane, so that their importation will soon cease to be a novelty. They were from New Providence, in the Bahamas, and landed from the Urania, after a passage of twenty-nine days. Ori ginally, the whole cargo was of good quality ; but many had suffered much from injudicious package. They realised an average price of 3s. to 4s. 6d., and found ready customers, the whole of the previous cargoes having sold well by the fruiterers. PROCLAMATIONS OF OUTLAWRY.—ThUFSday being county court day, Hemp, the officer of the Sheriffs, made proclamation in the usual manner, and the fhllowing persons not answering were , declared outlaws at the suit sof their several creditors Milton, Bamford, H.T. Ryde, Thomas Read Kemp, John Charles Trevanion, George C1a4,1,, Thomas Delahaye, Chanel. the Count flp Tier, Wrjglai; William :Pole Tilnex 1,0.9 g Wellesley, William Fine, bta4ciiOle:GtibEri: Bolton; Anthous , ..

A sunrise or so ago, we paused, as once Wordsworth paused, on Westminster-bridge, and, smitten by the scene, fell, like the poet of Rydal Mount, into deep philosophic thinking. We thought of the Abbey, and of the two-pences taken at its doors ; we thought of the dean and chapter, and their tenants; of the Almonrv; of the rejected statue of Byron, and of the onslaught of Baron Fitzhardinge. And then we turned towards the rising walls of the new Houses of Parliament, and, thinking of their cost, asked despairingly what is the good of them? Yes, fellow -countrymen, we put it to you—are not Houses of Parliament, old and new, vain • and useless as • Eg - yptiati . cenotaphs ? We put it to the industrious and di passionate man, who, with a patience that must surely be a set-off to some minor sins, plods his way through the daily debates of Parliament—we nut it to him whether the business of the country, as it is gravely e fled by some droll talkers, might not rbe mare efficiently performed by some mechanic in , -ans, than by the six hundred and fifty-eight learned indi viduals who meet in February to do everything, and separate in A ugust, having done nothing? Really the trick is now so old, that we wonder at the courage; of any set of Ministers who can repeat it. At the opening of the session how beautiful is legislative alacrity ! Mea sure after measure is promised--nay, is fairly brought in—has one, perhaps two readings, and is dropped for another session, to be dropped again. A night or two since Sir R. Peel, with one of his blandest smiler, in formed the House that he would let it know w hat time it had lost upon Bills not to be proceeded with ; yes, he would count the addled eggs, and in the ensuing session . they might poor, defrauded geese!—sit again. If Herr nobler or the Wilard of the North were to conjure after this fashion, the audience would tear up the benches. Returning to the new Houses of Parliament, we must again protest against the money lavished upon them. For what business, we ask, has been effected in the present session that might not have been as efficiently transacted in a ientry-box ? Wherefore, then, these costly buildings for men to do nothing in ? Why, indeed, should we have Nlembers of Parliament at all, when sure we are that Mr. Babbage would construct a legislating machine, which, in the hands of Sir R. Peel, would fully answer all the purposes of living senators ? We are serious. We therefore propose that, at the next election, every gentleman desirous of affixing, M.P. to his name should, on his election, send his proxy machine to the House of Commons, setting the instrument at "Aye" and "No," as Mr. Babbage will' instruct him, on certain questions, and suffering the Ministry to take their divisions accordingly. Theires.ult of the present session convinces us that the " business n of the country" will he g o t th roug h qu i te as well fts by the present mode ; with thi s a d vantage , t h at the ma chines may be put anywhere.—Punch. THE PITMEN'S STRIKE.—The Marquis of London derry has published the forowing notice:—" July 20, 1844.—The Marquis of Londonderry has given qrcteis that no person, pitman or workman, is to be, per mitted to come in his carriages, or any of 1 their families, to Seaham Harbour, for the purposes of marketing or buying goods, who are not bona fife at his work, and employed in his collieries.

Lord Londonderry further infrms the traders and shopkeepers, that having by his n,ea sures increased very largely the last year's trade to Sea ham, that if credit is so improperly and so fatally given to his unreasonabl e pit men , thereby prolonging the in jurious strike, it is his firm determination to curr y back all the outlay of his concerns even to Newcastle.

THE ISLAND OF IcurastoE.—The brig G race, I ty Newcastle, Captain Wilkin, arrived at Shields on a turday last, from Ich a b oe , b r i ng i ng 3 00 tons of pri guano.

After this they di g i n f ac i ng , eac h s hi p their own, and then it is taken to the shore in bags and barrows, and carried along ajetty(erected with the vessel's spars,planks, and yards) into a boat, and thence to the ship. The vessels lie about 300 yards from the shore, and at times the surfis very heavy, so that thejetty becomes a matter of necessity. The Grace's boat once upset with eight hands, and tit was with difficulty the crew reached the shore. 14 ves sels can load at once ; and those which are waiting their turn help the nearest loaded vessel, and then take hqr place. A large boat was purchased by the captain of the Grace to load with, and he sold it to another when he left. There are a few labourers who live on board the ships, and also companies at London, Liverpool, &c. The shore is quite desolate, as far as regards inhabitants; but there are Innumerable quantities of seabirds, called " pen guins," and another tribe, called by the sailors " shags." One or two eggs of the latter bird have been brought home by the crew, which were found at the depth of 30 feet in the guano, quite perfect. The cargo was quite a speculation of the captain's own. The vessel having been at the Cape of Good Hope, and having heard there of this manure, he took the ship and succeeded well.— Sunderland Herald. THE LATE LORD ELDON'S WIG. During the State Trials" in the House of Lords, lately, Sir Thomas Wilde apologised to the Lord Chancellor for not being in full costume, and requested to be and was permitted to address their Lordships without his wig. This reminds us of a story told by Mr. Horace Twiss, in his " Life of Lord Eldon," just published :—Lady Eldon, in all her anticipation of her Lord's judicial promotion, had been much fretted by the consideration that he would have to assume the ordinary head-dress of the common law judges —a powdered bush wig. She bad therefore in duced him to sit for his portrait, while he was yet Attorney-General, so as to make sure of preserving a record of his features, undisguised by the obnoxious peruke ; and this portrait, which was painted by Sir Thomas (then Mr.) Lawrence, and which remained in Lord Eldon's possession till his death, is dressed in exact accordance with the toilette which he prac tised till his elevation to the bench. In compliance with Lady Eldon's feeling Lard Eldon applied often to King George the Third to allow him to dispense with his wig at times when he was not engaged in perform ing official functions. He pressed on the King the fact, that in former days wigs were not worn by the judges. " True," replied the King. " I admit the correctness of your statement, and am willing, if you like it, that you should do as they did ; for, though they certainly had no wigs, yet," added his Majesty, facetiously, they wore 01.4 beards." 'l'he King further added, "No, no, no, innovation in my time." A CURIOUS OLD HOUSE.—Among the various buildings in West -street (formerly called Chick-lane), now about to bepulled down for the Clerkenwell improve ments, is a house, supposed to have been built at least 300 years ago, once known as the Red Lion Tavern, but for the past century used as a lodging-house, and the known resort of thieves, and the lowest grade of the frail sisterhood. It is situated on, the west side of the Fleet River, now called the Fleet Ditch, and used as a comm on sewer ; and f r om i ts remark-, able adaptation as a hidi ng . p l aee, ' w i t h it s var i ous means of escape, is well deserving a visit of the curious. Its dark closets, trap-doors, sliding panels, secret re cesses and hiding places, no doubt rendered it one of the most secure places for robbery and murder. It was here that a chimney-sweep, named Jones, who escaped out of Newgate, about three years since, was so securely hidden, that, although it was repeatedly searched by the police, he was never disco vered, till it was divulged by one of its inmates, who, by incautiously observing that he knew where abouts was concealed, was taken up, and remanded from time to time, as an accessory to his escape, but who at last, tired of prison fare, and priso n discipline, pointed out the place to obtain his own liberty. He was concealed by parting off a portion of a cellar with brickwork well besmeared with soot and dirt, to prevent detection, This cell. or more properly den, is about four feet wide by nine in depth; and during Jones's incarceration therein, he had food conveyed to him through a small apertur e , by a b r i c k or two being left out next the rafters. It waslaere, about seven years since, that 0. sailor was robbed, and after wards flung naked through one of the convenient aper ture; in i'the wall, into the said sewer, for which two mon and a woman were transported for fourteen years. A skull, and numerous human banes, have been found in the cellars, some of which have been taken away by Mr. Taylor, the police medical officer. On one occasion, thongb the premises were surrounded n seven police fficers, a thief made his onar,-e by its COMMUniCatIOII3 with thQ ttijNuttio out ,uses, which were all let to the c lowed. taractPrs: Numerous parties daily visit the pre mises, among whom have been many of the police and county magistrates.

THIRTY SECONDS ADVICE TO A CABMAN, Mr Goon FELLOW—Your being a cab-driver is no reasoa why you should be dishonest and impertinent, or even ex press yourself improperly ; pray, therefore, take these fevr words of advice as to your conduct and d emeanour : When a gentleman - hails you, do not cry out " Here y are, sir l" W ouhat you mean to sa y i s , " H ere I am, sir." To. tell a gentleman that he is where you are, is nonsense; un less, when he addresses you as " Oab !" you mean to reply that he is another, and then it is impudent. Say, simply-, " Here, sir!" which is both concise and civil. In soliciting Air employment, pronounce the word, cab„ according to its orthography; that is, as it is spelt, as-b.- cab, and not as if it were, k-e-b—keb. Your brethren almost invariably cry, "Keb, sir l" " Keb, sir I" There is no suck word as keb in the English language; you annoy the correct, ear exceedingly by using it ; and besides. you set a bad ex ample to youth, who lea rn t o i m i tate the inaccuracy. Abstain, while on your stand, from flourishing your whip in the face of everybody who passes you. By this gest ure you often needlessly i n t errupt a tra i n of reflection, and dis compose a philosopher. When you are desired to drive to such a place, go there by the nearest way. Endeavour to do your duty rather than your fare. In making 37c,nr charge, recollect that there are 1,760 yards, not less, in a mile; and that miles are to be multiplied by eightpense, not by one shilling. At all events, try whether yois cannot, now and then, for once or so in the way, receive your just due without grumbling for more, and being abusivn if it is not given you. If it is net really too much trouble to you, mind, a little, where you are driving. If you see a child or old woman in your way, you may as well cry out before you run over them. Sh li oul ttle.d they not hear y ou , you m i g h t even slacken your pace a When any sort of property happens to have been left in your cab, it will not be amiss, provided it is not exceedingly valuable, to take it to the Hackney Coach-office, or to the place at which you set your fare down. Honesty is not alto gether ridiculous, and may sometimes prove worth as much as a crown to you. These hints, my good fellow, are kindly meant by your possible fare, Pllls GOVERNMENT SCHOOL OF DESIGN.—In our ac count of the distribution of prizes to the pupils of the Go vernment School of Design, Somerset House, the two follow mdeernetd,otaflibgihe ing names were omitted.
