No successful attempt has hitherto been made to introduce the superior coals of North Staffordshire into the London Market, and the wealthy owners of the northern collieries have hitherto enjoyed a monopoly. For the purpose of supplying the Metropolis with coals equal, and in some respects superior, to the best " Wallsend," a "'" r npany has been formed who contracted for the purchase of the Dilhorne Colliery, with its engines and machinery, and the fee simple of a large tract of adjoining mineral land, abound ing in coal and iron, situate in the Northern Division of the County of Stafford. Arrangements have been made with the different Canal Proprietors for the transit of the Coal at reduced rates of tonnage ; and the Company will be ena bl e d t o d e li ver to their Shareholders in London, at all seasons of the year, the very best quality of Coals at 225. 6d. per ton, leaving an ample return for the Capital embarked. The Coals have been burnt at many of the leading establish ments in London, who have furnished the most satisfactory Testimonials to their quality as compared with the best Walls end Coals. These Testimonials, with a Prospectus, may be had at the Offices of the Company, N.. 36, Old Jewry, where applications for the remaining Shares will be received, addressed to the Se cretaries, if by letter, post paid.

It may be well first to premise, that the reason for this sale will be very encouraging to a successor. THE DISTILLERY ORIGINATED IN 1729 by an ancestor of the present Proprietor, and during a PERIOD OF ONE HUNDRED AND TEN YEARS it has continued in the family, each having carried it on success. fully. It may be asked—where is a corresponding case to be found, or one so encouraging to those who would connect themselves WITH THIS WHEEL OF FORTUNE? As it is most probable all the competitors for this first-rate concern will desire to have ocular demonstration of the facts that have been slightly glanced at, the present statement well be confiner only to a very few of its prominent features. The Property is nearly all Freehold, and has been completed at intervals by means of an immense outlay, and may now be very safely designated one of THE MOST COMPLETE MALT DISTILLERIES IN ENGLAI:D. It is wisely placed a few yards only from the River Severn, and the Rectifying House and buildings suitable for the Wine Trade, are immediately on the opposite side the river. The Distillery ar.d Rectifying House are close to THE BRIDGE IN WORCESTER.

To conclude: Mr. Robins dares not trust himself to proclaim THE SECRETS OF THE PRISON HOUSE i n a public announcement; the profits have been satisfactory ; the pre cise amount will be left as a " bonne bouche" to those individuals who make a journey to Worcester, who, if aided by strong concurring testimony, of great respectability, will be allowed a full opportunity to investigate, and see, upon record a happy illustration of the cha_ teeter so imperfectly awarded to it by this short announcement. The Water Carriage from the Severn River and Canal to distant parts of England, and the Railroad, which is nearly accomplished to London and to Bristol, are auxiliaries that will not escape public attention. The Plants, both of the Distillery and the Rectifying House, are to be taken at a valuation, with early possession. Principals only will be dealt with ; the printed particulars will be ready on the 10th inst., with a plan of the distillery ; to be then had at the Waterloo Hotel, Liverpool ; of Mr. Fisher, Auctioneer, Manchester ; at the Bush Hotel, Bristol; New London Hotel, Exeter ; of Mr. Laslett and Mr. Knipe, both of Worcester, Solici tors ; the Auction Mart, and at Mr. George Robins's Offices, Covent-Garden. There is a Plan, upon a large scale, distinguishing the Brewery, the Rectifying House, the two Residences, &c., which may be seen at Mr. George Robins's Offices.

Then we turned our eyes to Eaton-square, and thought of placing ourselves under an obligation to Sir William Molesworth, but changed our mind, lest his Durham politics should creep through a transparent veil of Radicalism. Tom Wyse we were half in clined to solicit, but he wouldhave been rather heavy, and had enough to do in Waterford. Richard Shell had the next place in our consideration, bat his style would have been too spark.. ling and light for us ; and, moreover, we knew that ha was busied not only in preparing a patriotic address to the electors of Tipperary, but also in obtaining some knowledge of the tallow and molasses trade out of APCulloch's " Commercial Dictionary." Having at length seen that we must ourselves put en our apron, and take up our tools, for the due execution of the un dertaking, we were fairly bothered deciding whether the affair should be extremely long and dull, or uncommonly short and merry. Conscience whispered that we should speak the truth, but we remembered that the philosopher of Malmesbury has denounced all truth-telling public writers as dangerous to the safety of a corrupt and tyrannical commonwealth, and has re commended that both them and their lucubrations should be bundled off te some comfortable and hospitable country, like Australia or New Zealand. Our disposition and interest prompted us to treat a grave matter with becoming serious ness ; but then the advice of Pliny flashed upon our memory, ( [lt in vita sic in studiis pulcherrimum, &c.) where he recom mends us to mingle mirth and gravity in our studies. We feared to be vivacious and pointed, lest we should be condemned as frivolous and slanderous, and suffer that public displeasure which has ever been visited upon unhappy authors since the time that the Athenians burned the books of Protagoras, and the Rom b a e ns a huri l t i e tt d lse D tap io vl g ae e itn n o, e n s and his companions out of their city, for telling more th an they wished to hear. " Human is.s' us to as Dick thereby phrases it, followingwoul d have the inclined counsel of Lord Bacon, who informs us that " the fame of Seneca and Cicero was kept fresh by their boasting, which seems to be like varnish, that not only makes•wood shine, but last; but we drew ourselves up, and, upon reflection, decreed that self:praise, so far as we were concerned, should be monopolized by the com pounders of Morison's Pills, and Holloway's Poor Man's Oint ment. Here, then, we were at a dead-lock, and seizing our pen, first wrote a furious letter to Dr. Dionysius Lardner, com plaining that science had not yet discovered some piece of me chanism that might manufacture Prospectuses of all sorts and sizes by steam—then set about inditing one after the good old fashioned plan. The Amphitryon thinks the choicest blessing of life a re cherche repast; the exquisite prizes above all things a well-cut coat, or an unobjectionable cig ar ; t h e E nnuyee pants for the last new novel, or the op era ; the Rational Man aline loves an honest and clever newspaper. But where is he to find it? Most assuredly not among the Liberal Journals of Dublin • for we, not long ago, went over the catalogue of the Liberal'Me tropolitan prints with the talented Mr. George Robins, who confessed, with a yawn and a sigh, that beginning with the oldest, and leaving off with the youngest,—" the chief of the Irish Press," (a tribute, by the way, paid to our own humble exertions by the honest Sheffield Iris)—" he never had the misfortune to have submitted to his inspection so bad a lot, or cne which would furnish such scanty materials for the puff ex traordinary." Spenser tells us that the Dublin Liberal News papers, or " carryers of newes," in his time were " fooles and notable rogues." Tom Moore, if we are to believe Willis, has described the present generation as downright blockheads; while .11r. O'Connell, by way of driving home the nail, designates the whole concern IN DEVON, APPROACHING THE MARKET TOWN OF TAVISTOCK, AN EXCELLENT MODERN RESIDENCE, WITH PRO DUCTIVE GARDENS, ORCHARD, PLANTATIONS, AND MEADOWS, ALTOGETHER 17 ACRES, MR. GEORGE ROBINS is instructed to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on Tmuas- DAY, the 26th of September, at Twelve o'clock, AN ELEGANT AND EXCEEDINGLY COMMODIOUS " A PALTRY PRESS." These be hard lines, as the sailors say, but " non noster hic serum." It will now, we imagine, be admitted that something in the shape of an able and honest Journal is required to " stop the gap." To put such .an intellcetual vehicle upon the road, we think, would be considered Quixotic, even by so speculative and excellent a judge of such matters as Mr. Peter Purcell. " A Party is necessary," exclaim the Tory parson, and the Liberal placehunter, "or else you will reckon but few readers." Upon this point we join issue, and hope, for the honour of civilized humanity, that as the Irish public maintain a sufficient number of newspapers to tell them falsehood, they will vouchsafe to sup port one which, at all risks, is determined to announce to them the truth. " All that mortal art bath wrought, In our cell returns to nought; The molten gold returns to clay, The polish'd diamond melts away. All is altered, all is flown— Nought stands fast but truth alone." eTt:'l.lllrtsrnan shall .. In Politics we shall be Radicals, and devoted to the People, utterly regardless of the smiles or frowns of the select and interested few. Such a course, we know, is always perilous and often profitless— " Hard is his task who edits—thankless job— A weekly journal for the factious mob ; Alike undone, or if he praise or rail; For this affects his safety, that his sale : He sinks, at last, in luckless limbo set— If loud, for libel—and if dumb, for debt." We shall always be happy, when we can agree with those men who, however they may sometimes err, have rendered efficient service, and made many sacrifices for the cause of liberty; but we shall not advocate that wait-a-while policy which holds out promises to suffering millions which are never likely to be realized— " My father, Time, is weak and grey, With waiting for a better day," We shall judge the Government by its ac's, and shall oppose a Premier, be he Whig, Tory, or Radical, when we find him the Irish advantage artillery eK a l r f iyn d og i fd s i o n rme c a l . i s n o e n d , averse to the removal of the remnant of the Penal Code, which, when he e n e s v e e y e s r t ia n s e r s t a n become gene.. absurdly enough, forbids the appointment of a Roman Catho lic Chancellor ;—a Colonial Secretary. when he resists the t hep resent It• Ballot;—or even so amiable and enlightened a S ta t esman as \ l l i sehshPaelol people light-hearted. rally to a l l y grant ha p p a y n increase contented popular ted u n t i iprivileges again o hua t rr.

The elderly gentleman evidently meant the latter de claration to make an impression upon the fat young man, for he suited the action to the word in a manner scarcely endurable by human flesh. He lifted up his head, turned it half round towards Mr. Smith's advo cate, sneered at him, and extending his right arm to its full length, waved it towards his antagonist in the most magnificent manner imaginable. The action spoke for itself—it said, " Young man, you're a fool ; hold your tongue." Fat Young Man (puffing with rage)—Sir, I'm not a—a —, Sir, I'm not to be put down. You're an ignorant old fellow (giving the word an emphasis abso lutely quite musical). You're an ignorant old fellow. I say he did catch the cold during the long stage ; and if you mean (stamping on the floor, and getting white in the face) to say he did not, why, Sir (and the " fat boy" pulled out his card case), I'll trouble you to ac cept Here the Commissioners, who were convulsed with laughter, interfered, and cheiked the bubbling valour of the young gentleman. Having allowed him a few minutes in order to cool down a little, A Commisstotan addressed " the elderly gentle man," and observed the facts were that Mr. Smith did not admit the set-off of it. Elderly Gentleman—Just so. COMMISSIONER—And which, you say, Mr. Smith has been paid? Elderly Gentleman—Oh, yes, in this way. Before Miss Bayley married Mr. Smith, Mr. Bayley, her brother, lent her a sovereign. Fat Young Man—Oh ! dear me, Mr. Gilson, you're not going to pursue such a shameless course ?. Dear me, Mr. Smith wouldn't for the world --. Elderly Gentleman —Have this known, Mr. Lewis ; but it must be known. Mr. Bayley has intrusted this case to my discretion, and his interest shall not lose anything at my. hands. Gentlemen, Mr. Bayley lent his sister before her marriage with Mr. Smith, a sove reign, to buy a lavender-coloured silk bonnet for her— Fat Young Man—Stop, Mr. Gilson—for goodness sake, do stop—Mr. Smith would rather lose 20/. than this expose should go on. Pray, Gentlemen (addressing the Commissioners), do adjourn the case till I can speak to Mr. Smith. CommisstoNEß = Adjourn it I say dismiss it. The case is disgraceful to both parties. Another COMMISSIONER—I move that the case be dismissed. A third COMMISSIONER—I second it. CHAIRMAN-All you who are of that opinion, hold up your hands. Carried unanimously—dismissed. Call on the next. case. The parties then left the office, the fat young man terribly chagrined, and declaring as he was a gentleman " he certainly world have satisfactiota ouc of that fellow Gilson, and that before he tasted another morsel—a long -stage coachman, too, to know anything about I catching a cold. What does—what can he know, (ap pealing to the bystanders) about anything but horses ?" , I CAUTION TO PERSONS KEEPING GIGS.— At a meeting of the Commissioners of Taxes, held at Ax_ bridge, on the 23d ult., a farmer appealed to be relieved from the tax on a gig. The appellant proved it was marked with his name, &c., agreeably to Act of Parliament, and that he (the appellant) had given under the sum of 211. for the same to a coachmaker. On further examination it ap peared to have been bought of the latter second-hand, and as neither the appellant or coachmaker could prove that it had never before been so►d for a price exceeding the above sum, the Commissioners held him liable, and confirmed the charge accordingly. In Garthhiebes, Salop, reside four brothers named Evans, all their first Christian names being Evan, and these lour Evan Evanses have, strange to say, married four sisters. RAILWAY CASUALTY THREE COWS KILLED.—On Saturday evening one of the railway trains from Liverpool to ninehester, when near Rai*ll. came is contact with several cows which had, by some means uct on the toad. and killed three of them. Two of the carriages were throvri, off the rails; but fortunately the ~.ngine was stopped without any further damage having hcen sustained. Another train, proceeding from Liver. pool, and the second class train trom Birmingham, were de tained four hours by this accident. —Manchester Guardian.

COLLISION OF A STEAMER IN THE RIVER TnAmEs. —On Thursday night a most alarming accident, occurred in the Thames, off Deptford i the Pearl, Rail:a gate steamer, proceeding to the Custom-house quay, having come in collision with a coal barge, heavy laden, with three men on board. So violent was the shock that the barge almost instantly sank, and the paddle-wheel and box of the steamer were carried away. The poor fellows on the barge were got on board the steamer, and their lives providentially saved.

The Crier of the Court —Which is Mr. Wm. Bayley? A tall elderly gentleman, with a smiling countenance, the " lengthened sweetness long drawn out" of the poet, tripped forward, and said Mr. William Bayley had requested that he would represent him upon the present occasion, and explain matters. COMMISSIONER—Wby does not Mr. Bayley attend ? The Tall Elderly Gentleman—He is extremely ill -very ill —too ill to present himself before you. COMMISSIONER—D O you admit the debt ? Elderly Gentleman—No. Mr. Bayley has a set off to the amount of If. the remaining 10d. has been paid. The Fat Young Man—The remaining 10d. paid in deed! Gentlemen (addressing the Commissioners), I am particularly requested by Mr. Smith to inform you that he never would have taken legal proceedings for the recovery of this sum bad it not been for the gross manner in which that 10d. was sent to him. COMMISSIONER—And pray how was it sent back? The Fat Young Man—Why, gentlemen in the most unprecedented manner—in a manner scarcely credible. He sent it back, gentlemen, in a twopenny-post letter, sixpence in silver and fourpence in ha'pence. The letter weighed a quarter of a pound exactly. Elderly Gentleman (with provoking equanimity)— Quite correct ; just within the Post-office allowance. Fat Young Man (spitefully)—Yes, and Mr. Smith says he'll never forgive or forget it. COMMISSIONER—That is very rash, and, I should think, a most unchristian vow, seeing that Mr. Smith is as you say, " very much indisposed, and cannot put his foot out of doors." Elderly Gentleman (shaking his head)—Allow me to assure you, gentlemen, that he's not ill at all. The fact is, that Mr. Smith's wife (and the elderly gentleman looked at the fat young man and laughed) is ashamed of the matter, and will not permit him to be well enough to come here. Fat Young Man—And Mr. Bayley is afraid to come here (endeavouring to look big). He knows I would expose him in such a manner as he was never exposed in the whole course of his life. COMMISSIONER—Stop, gentlemen, if you please. What has the plaintiff's wife to do with the case? Elderly Gentleman—lt is useless to disg uise the matter ; the fact is, Gentl emen , t h a t M rs . Smith is Mr. Bayley's sister. Mr. Smith is a medical man, and Mr. Bayley drives a long stage. Mr. Bayley caught a very violent cold in consequence of having lent Mr. Smith his Mackintosh ; the day was rainy, Mr. Bayley got wet through, and a cold was the result. Mr. Smith differed as to the manner in which Mr. Bayley took cold, giving it as his opinion that it arose from driving his stage of nights. A quarrel ensued upon this diffe rence of opinion ; Mr. Bayley refused to take any more of Mr. Smith's medicine. COMMISSIONER—For presuming to know better than Mr. Bayley how be (Bayley) caught cold? Elderly Gentleman—Exactly so; Mr. Bayley thought, and very reasonably, I consider, that a man who was so presumptuous and obstinate in his opinion as to the cause of the cold, was not the best person in the world to prescribe for it. Fat Young Man (warmly)—Mr. Smith did knew the cause of Mr. Bayley's cold. Elderly Gentleman (meekly)—With great submis sion he did not. Fat Young Man (passionately)—l say he did, Sir. Do you mean, Sir— The elderly gentleman shook his bead, bowed with the most aggravating politeness to the fat young man, and smiled. Fat Young Man (vehemently)—Do you mean, Sir, to say, that Mr. Bayley did not catch his cold as Mr. Smith says he did ? Certainly, I do (said the elderly gentleman, growing rather warm)—l mean to contend that the want of his Mac)tintosh was the cause. Driving a long stage of Aights never could have given a man such a cold. It I DONCASTER RACES. DONCASTER, THURSDAY NigHT.

SOLOMONS, Opticians and Aurists to the Royal Family, 39, Albe marle—street, Piccadilly, and 96, Cheapside, by which thousands of deaf persons have been greatly benefited, is the size of a seven_ shilling piece, and when fixed into the cavity of the ear is soft and easy, and not more perceptible than having a piece of wool in its place, by which the faintest whisper at a public assembly is heard with distinctness. And defective VISION is brought to nature by the use of newly.invented SPETACLE LESES : immedtel they are placedb efore weak and C imperfect eyes Night, either by ia day y or candlelight, every object becomes clear and distinct, and the most minute particle is seen with great distinctness, by the use of which both the sight and hearing become much improved.

Amber is an indurated. vegetable juice, and not 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, are subject to nervous tremours in their wrists, arms, &c. ; they en counter great danger by handling such dreadful excited electrics; Amber grows with lime, and is apt to take' fire, and is of such a soffnature when exposed to warmth that it swells, bubbles up, and will burn away with flame." The above Dr. lire's statements are further confirmed by Sir D. BREWSTER and Pliny, as also by Parks and Heny on Chemistry. Thedestructive effects of such a material for Spectacles, to imperfect vision, are fully and most satisfactorily explained in Messrs. Curtis and Dollond's Second Edition on the Preservation of Sight, and may be ascertained at any respectable Optician's in London. The Messrs. Solomons' newly-invented Spectacle Lenses are not constructed of such a material; but which are very superior, and bring back at once dimness of sight and imperfect vision to its original and natural state; these Spectacles, and very small Voice Conductors for Deaf persons, are only to be had at thea• Establish ments, 39, Albemarle-street, and 96, Cheapside. No Travellers are employed. •
