I This Corporation is established by Act of Parliament tor the purpose of planting British Colonies in the North American Provinces, by means of an extensive Emigration from the United Kingdom by persons of all classes and conditions. The Stock of the Company is divided into 15,000 Shares of 201. each, of which '2l. is to be paid at the time of subscribing. .-- This Company having been constituted a Corporation by ass express Act of the Legislature, it can sue and be sued only in its corporate capacity, and to afford an opportunity to Noblemen and others to invest Capital in the Company without subject ing their estates to trading responsibilities, it is expressly pro vided by a Clause in the Act, that the Shareholders shall not be. liable for a greater sum than the amount of their Shares in the Stock of the Company. In order that the Company may commence operations with as little delay, and under circumstances as favourable as possible, they have purchased the extensive Signiory of Beauharno:s in Lower Canada, with large tracts of land in the adjoining town ships. Beauharnois is, in point of soil and situation, perhaps the best property in the whole Province ; the climate is health ful, and the land is fertile : the Estate is intersected by useful Roads and Rivers ; it is situate on the St. Lawrence—ths great highway of Emigration and Commerce ; it is within two hours' water communication with Montreal, which already pos sesses a population of 30,000 souls, and will in all probability become the Capital of the United Canadas, and is now the Point whence five-sixths of the Emigrants from Great Britain are distributed over the country. A considerable portion of the Company's Estate is already in an advanced stage of settlement : there are upon it Eight Protes tant and Four Roman Catholic Churches and Chapels, and Pifty-one Schools, together with Saw Mills, Grist Mills, General Stores, Taverns, and other Establishments, indicative of a thriving settlement. Upwards of 6,000 British Settlers are located upon the property. The Land which the Company has to let or sell has been emancipated from the French feudal tenures, and is regulated by the British laws of property. There are nearly 150,000 acres of this land in the hands of the Company, capable of immediate settlement, and in various stages of improvement. The late proprietor has carefully re served the sites suitable for the erection of Towns and Vil lages, and also the valuable timber and water powers and pri vileges on the Estate; all of which will be ready for lease or sale early in the ensuing spring, upon a plan for the general settlement of the Estate, which is now in the course of prepa ration. A Mail Coach Road from the United States to Mon treal runs through the Signiory ; extensive lines of Railroad are now forming between Ogdensburgh and Plattsburgh, in th u State-of New York, in the immediate neighbourhood of the Signiors ; and it is intended immediately to carry a Railroad through . the Signiory property (which must be the future highway between tipper and Lower Canada), with branches to communicate with the Railroad between Oodenburg and Plattsburgh ; a ship canal also, to complete the great naviga tion from the Welland Canal to the Sea, is intended to pass through the Estate,—the termini of all these Works will be on the property—they will furnish employment to a vast number of emigrant labourers, and of course greatly augment the value of the whole property. The operations of the Company will be principally directed to the following objects :- Ist. They will purchase Lands in British America, both in in uncultivated state, and in various stages of improvement. , 2d. They will con t r act with Noblemen and other Landed roprietors, who may be desirous of assisting the surplus la bourers on their estates to emigrate, for their safe and comfort -41),,1e transmission to the Colonies ; and they will likewise pro ;to such Emigrants, en their arrival these, with temporary r and employment, that they may . escape the miseries hitherto attendant on unregulated emigration. The Company *ill likewise enter into similar contracts with, and undertake the agency of, families and individuals of all classes and condi tions desirous of e migrating ; so that by a judicious combina tion o f objects, and union of numbers, a safe, efficient, and economical system of emigration may be established. 3d. Ti.. Company will sell and let Land to Settlers ; in quantities, and upon terms, to suit their means and in clinations. 4th. For the purpose of giving additional facilities to Emi grants and Colonists, the Company will establish 'Banks, under the authority of their Act of Parliament, for the security and remittance of Money ; and they will likewise issue Notes, and make Loans and Advances upon Bills and other Securities. sth. The Company will negotiate Purchases, Sales, and ex changes of Property, in the different Provinces; they will ac quire and disseminate information respecting suitable spots for location, estates to be disposed of, the price of land, and the rate of wages in different districts, so as to assist in balancing the demand and supply of each ; and thus prevent, as much as pos sible, fluctuations in the price of Lank and Labour—equally in jurious to the Settler with Capital, and the poor Emigrant who has nothing but his labour to depend upon for support. Of the 300,0001. Stock in the Company, 50,000/. has been taken by its Founders and Directors ; 50,0001. is reserved for Residents in the Colonies where the Company will have set tlements; 100,0001. has been appropriated to Noblemen and Gentlemen in Ireland, and other Land-owners ; and 100,0001. is about to b- disposed of in England ; for which applications, in the following form, are to be made to Messrs. Ladbrokes and Co., Bankers, London, to whom the deposits must be paid. The Board will proceed to allot Shares to applicants on Mon day, the 24th instant, and on each succeeding Monday, till Monday, the 22d day July next, after whichno applications will be received. ..—..,... 2, Bank Buildings, London, June 18, 1839.

Moved by the Rev. Archdeacon KENNEDY, seconded by ALEXANDER SHERLOCK, Esq., and Resolved unanimously—'That the plan proposed by the North American Colonial Association, appears to this Meeting well adapted to the accomplishment of this object, and whether con sidered as a commercial speculation or a national undertaking is entitled to public support.

" Pauc itacitum dolorern continebant."—Llv. As manhood approaches, the human form, coun tenance, voice, and the whole intellectual character, undergo a revolution. Love is the end and sum of life, creating images after image of ideal perfection. But in the present state of society, pure and virtuous enjoyment is often postponed and ob. structed, till the excess of youthful impetuosity impels to a course of wild and injurious indulgence, and the mind becomes painfully harassed by alternations of fears, disgust, and passion. In this state relief is perhaps sought from the inexperienced, perhaps from the ignorant ; in either case at the expense of health, that being only palliated which should have been eflectually'cured. Here we propose to step in and rescue the victim of unwise indulgence trona the pangs of remorse, disappointed hope, and disease; and we pledge ourselves to eradicate every taint of syphilitic poison, and to restore to its wonted energy every relaxation of the generative economy, whether from this or other causes, whereby the dignity of manhood shall have become impaired ; equally contemning unfeeling empy. ricism, which with reckless ignorance destroys where it should re. store' and, on the other hand, that unworthy " principle" whose proud selfishness increases the embarrassment of the afflicted. All classes of society, not excepting the Angla-Indian, but more espe cially such as are about to enter into matrimonial life, are included in the limits of this address, and to all we confidentiy offer the result of many years' successful practice. Daily attendance is given for personal consltat ion ; and immediate answers are returned to country letters ,which must minutely de scribe the case, and contain a remittance for Advice and 51edicine, which can be forwarded to any part of the world, however distant-- No difficulty can occur, as the Medicine will ,be securely packed, and carefully protected from observation.

As it is, however, well known that the Levant is now the principal mart for the Sugar Refineries of Western Europe, it will be granted on all sides, that works in the centre of consumption must enjoy an incontestible supe riority over the former, and become the more profitable, as the privileges and grants of the Greek Government render every comFetition impossible, so much so that this concern will prove one of, if not the very best investment yet offered to the public.

GREAT ADVANTAGES OFFERED BY THE UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSU RANCE COMPANY, 8, Waterloo-place, Pall-mall, and 2, Charlotte-row, Mansion house, London. This Company, established by Act of Parliament, affords the most perfect security, from an ample capital, and only re quires, when an Insurance is for the whole period of life one half of the very moderate Premiums to be paid for the first five years after the date of the Policy, the other half may remain, subject to the payment of interest at 5 per cent. annually, to be dedacted at. death, or may previously be paid off at convenience. It obviously becomes easy for a person of very moderate income to secure, by this arrangement, a provision for his family ; and should he at any time after effecting the insurance succeed to, or acquire, a fortune, he may relinquish his policy, having only paid one half the premiums ter the first lye years, instead of the whole, as in all other Companies. Thus a man of 2.5 years old may, by an annual payment of 28/. 16s. ad. for the first live years, and afterwards by paying yearly the full premium of 571. 12s.

REPRESENTATION OF WEST SUSSEX.—We rejoice to announce that Colonel Charles Wyndham, of Rogate, will be a candidate nt the next election for the Western Division of this county. Such is the first effect of the Duke of Norfolk's indecent interference with the representation of the Rape. Without the pow er o f secur ing the return of Mr. Salomons (in whose fAvour his inte rest was given at the last election secretly, as it i 3 now given openly), he has raised a flame that will certainly lead to the expulsion of his own son fi - orn the county. and possibly that of his grandson from Arundel. —Brighten Gazette (Tory Paper). As a contrast to the involuntary " Offerings" wrung from Dissenters by Clergy and Proctors of the Es tablished Church, it is gratifying to remark the readiness wherewith freewill offerings are made by the Dissenting body, where they consider the promotion of vital Chris tianity at stake. On Tuesday, the 11th instant, after sermons preached subsequent to the enlargement of a small Baptist Meeting House in Evesham, the sum of 51/. 15s. 6d. was collected. This, with 204/ 4s. 6J. pre -1 viously contributed by the same congregation, completes 1 a total of 2561. raised there within a very few months, over and above the usual current expenses attendant upon the 1 maintenance of public worship; the whole being given, .‘ not by restraint, but willingly," in accordance with the 1 precepts of the New Testament. —Worcester Chron.:cle. LAW INTELLIGENCE. COURT OF EXCISE. Before Sir John Mortlock, Chairman, the Hon. Berkeley Paget, and Hart Davies, Esq. ILLICIT DISTILLATION.—On Saturday, an information against a man named James Goody, a most notorious smuggler, who has frequently been before this Court for defrauding the revenue, was heard, charging him with working an illicit still at No. 5, White Horse -street, Lam beth. It appeared from the evidence of Messrs. Austen, Gur ton, and Garey, officers of Excise, that the defendant, who is at present in Ilorsernonger-lane gaol on the warrant of the Union-hall Magistrates, had long been carrying on an extensive business at the above place, supplying most of the large and cheap gin-shops with illicit spirits; but immediately upon its coming to the knowledge of the Excise the offi cers proceeded to the premises, and obtained ad mission by passing through the adjoining house and climb ing over the garden wall. In the kitchen they found the still at work, and the defendant giving instructions to an other man in his employment. They seized the still and several gallons of spirits, and afterwards conveyed the de fendant to Union-hall. Mr. Golding Bird, the chief general examining sur veyor of Excise, stated to the Court that the defendant was an old offender. The Court condemned the still, &e., and fined the de 'endant 50/. Mr. Charles Hammon, beer-shop-keeper, King's Arms, Lea-bridge, was fined 2.5/., fur illegally selling spirits upon his premises. UNDER-STRENGTII Sruarrs —Screral informations were heard against publicans for havi n g spirits in their posses sion more than 17 per cent. under hygrometer proof ; among the rest were Mr. Bunn, of the Turkish Slave, Briek,lane, Spitalfields, from whom a quantity of brandy and rum had been seized, being 26 under proof ; and Mr. Cockburn, of the Falcon, Old Fish -street, on whose premises the officers found about six gallons of rum nearly 30 below proof. The Court condemned the spirits seized, but remitted he penalty. CENTRAL CR IMINAL COURT. Matilda Vozine Fade, a young native of the East Indies, was indicted for stealing, on the 9th of May, a watch, a chain, seal, and key, value 31., the property of Robert Ashby.—The prosecutor, a person about 70, and dressed in the sty le of an old English gentleman, deposed that he lives at 29, Richmond -street, Maida-hill. On the morn'ng of the 9th of May he fell in with the prisoner on the Harrow-road, near the Grand Junction Canal. He open( d a conversation with her, and she talked very interestingly and fluently about the interior of India. She said she was a governess in a nobleman's family.—Common Sergeant : Well, I believe you were so pleased with her that you took her home.—Witness : Yes, when I got to my own door, I invited her in to breakfast, and introduced her to my sister, my wife being on a visit at the time. She was so pleased with her that my sister invited her to come to tea on the following Sunday, but she came on the previous Thursday. During her stay we were left alone, as my sister had withdrawn. After talking awhile the prisoner said something about going home, but she said—" Pray, Sir, will you leave the room while I tie up my garters."— ( Laughter.) " Certainly," said I, and I went in the garden while she did the job.—( Continued laughter.) On my return she was ready for starting, and I politely showed her out. She had not been gone long before I missed my watch from the mantle-piece. That produced, and the appendages, are mine. Other witnesses were called, who proved that, after pawning the watch for a mere trifle, she gave the dupli cate and the several appendages named to her friends, saying that they had been given to her by a gentleman. Fuller, the policeman who apprehended her, said that she denied having seen the prosecutor before. The CONIMON SERGEAN r said her statement before the justices, and the written papers put in by her to-day, were nearly tantamount. It set forth that when she was left in the parlour with the old gentleman he made improper advances, and she threatened to tell his wife when sho came home. He prayed her not to do so, as Mrs. Ashby would for ever upbraid him. He gave her the watch to hold her peace. Prosecutor (surprised)—Oh, dear me, I'm not such a man.—( Laughter. ) The Jury consulted for a considerable time, and then retired for an hour. When they returned they delivered a verdict of Guilty, with a recommendation to mercy. The COMMON SERGEANT inquired of the prisoner her age, and who and what she was. She said that she was nineteen years old, and the wife of an officer in the Lite Guards, but she had not lived with him since last October. The COMMON SErtGraxr —I cannot tell what to make of you, there is so much art and shrewdness about you people, but, in consideration of the recommendation of the Jury, the Court will be lenient—its sentence is, that you be kept to hard labour for two calendar months. POLICE INTELLIGENCE. MAIVS7SN-lIOUSE. TIIE COAL TRADE.-Mr. Bradfield waited upon the Lord Mayor, and suggested the propriety of requesting some Members of Parliament to move for returns of the amount of duty received upon inland coals for the last twelve months, in order to prove that the abatement of the charges would have the effect of lowering the prices of the article. The LORD Ma voR said that the duty had been already lowered as much as could be desired, or expected, by the meeting which took place a short time ago on the subject. He stated that immense supplies of coals would very soon be made to the metropolis from pits in Not tinghamshire, Derbyshire, and Leicestershire, in each of which counties some of the coals were equal in quality to any at Newcastle or Sunderland, and those of the Tel y best sorts would be sold at 245. or 255. per ton. Tic Leicestershire coals, he said, did not burn to white ashes, so that persons who objected to the light coloured ashes could be accommodated as the gas companies were supplied. A deputation bad a few days ago waited upon bim to state the nature and extent of the preparations which were being made, and to inform him that a wharf had been taken, from which the public would be served with the coals without the chance of disappointment or delay. Mr. Bradfield returned thanks to the Lord Mayor, for having departed from the usual practice, by presenting his petition to the Corporation on the subject of the inland coals. He begged, at the same time, to be allowed to make an observation or two on what had passed in the Court of Common Council on the subject. He had been accused there of having made the stir originally, and persevered in his exertions from interested motives alone, and with having improperly interfered with the chartered rights of the City. Now, whether interested motives were or wera not mixed up in his motives, certain it was that he had, by means of the powerful exertions of the Lord Mayor, succeeded in his attempts upon the in terested motives and objects of the great coal monopolisers, who were already feeling the effects of the open trade, which was now supplying the public at a rate which ought never to have been exceeded. With respect to the charge of having attacked the chartered rights of the City, he wished to preserve those rights instead of destroying them ; and those who so charged him , were in a state of woeful ignorance of their charter. He was sure that his proposition as to inland coals would have the effect of in creas.ng the revenue of the City. The Loan MAIOR said he thought so himself, but the dues were mortgaged to the public creditor. As to the charge rgainst Mr. Bradfield of interested motives, he (the Lord Mayor) did not clre whether it was well founded or not. Whatever some people night say, he was bound in justice to state that so persevering a man as Mr. Bradfield was, he never, in his life beheld. In spite of opposition, and scorn, and contempt, Mr. Bradfield bad continued his attacks upon the monopoly, and he deserved the gratitude of the public, for through his means an im mense public good had been accomplished. The Chief Magistrate had been enabled, through the information supplied to him from such a communicant, to make head against an evil of great magnitude, and would do all in his power to secure the services of Mr. Bradfield in the ar rangements which were in progress for the general supply of cheap and good coals to the metropolis. MADRID, JUNE B.—The apple of discord is fast ripening here. I apprized you of the illegal suspension of the liberty of the press having been set at defiance by the editors of all the independent journals, and of no popular demonstration having taken place yet ; but the forerunners of a disturbance did not fail to present themselves soon. In the course of yesterday afternoon hundred of mus tachioed National Guards went to the Eco office, and assured the editors (who had disobeyed M. Carra molino's circular) of their readiness and determination to support them vi et arniis against any measure or act of violence the Government might contemplate against their persons or property. This was pretty sig. nfficant. The National Guard is armed, and their Main Guard is at the Post Office in the Puerta del Sol within half musket shot of the office of the Eco, on the opposite side, near the entrance of the Calle del Arenal. The Government has not a force sufficient to disarm the National Guards, supposing that the troops of the line could be relied upon, which is very questionable, though there is no doubt that the Ministry would be foolish and wicked enough to attempt it, if they saw the slightest chance of success ; for Carratnolino, the Minister of the Interior, whose immorality occasioned all this, is too far committed to retrace his steps—and Alaix, the Minister of War, is a great friend of arbitrary measures, and a great foe of the press, he would, therefore, willingly lend his assistance in putting it down—and the rest of the Cabinet are far too ft eble as well as too corrupt to offer any resistance, and the Captain-Gene ral is the creature of the Minister of War. Yet there is one consideration that may check them. This is the Dictator Espartero, the master of them all ; him they plainly try to circumvent and to attach to their interest, for a royal decree in this day's Gazette, confers upon Don Baldomero Espartero, Count de Luchana, the grandee ship of Spain of the first class, with the title of Duke of Victoria for:himself, his sons, and descendants, with all the pay appertaining thereto, as a reward for his triumphs at flamales and Guardamino ; and to General Don Diego Leon, for his victories in Navarre, the title of Count of Belascoain. Espartero having sworn to maintain the Constitution of 1837, and always boasted of his faithful intention to main tain it, cannot, and it is hoped will net, lend himself to any Eucti infringement thereof as this suspension of the liberty of the press, though some high officers arc not over partial to it. To-day it is said that the editor of one of the Liberal journals is entrenched in his office with thirty armed de pendents, apprehending a sudden attack ; as not only the editors, but the proprietors; and even the printer's devils, are to be sent to prison. The friends of power, however, assert that government has no such intention. Some other editors are stated to have fled or concealed themselves. However, hitherto every journal has been published re gularly, though none of the Liberals complied with M. Carramolino's mandate, who only covered himself with ridicule in addition to the disgrace he incurred. The woman taken in adultery with the Minister Carramolino is the wife of a M. Princelas, who is contador of the Order of Carlos 111 , a little hump-backed quizzical-looking being, who had the high honour of pleasing and marrying the niece of M. Perez de Castro. They dwell in the Calle de Ilutrlaz, where the scena and pummelling of his Excel lency Senor Carramolino took place, who himself is the son of a pettifogger of an Escribano two leagues fi on] Avila, and followed the same profession, got himself by favour of the justices elected to the Cortes, and by favour of a frail fair one named a minister by the Premier and Alaix, the former being the lady's uncle. The censorship never answered its purpose in Ferdi nand's time during the absolutism, when Padre Iluerla. the Vicar- General of the Dominicans, and San Filipe Veri, now with the Pretender, was Censor of the Madrid press, who leaving the perusal of the journals to his cook, many offensive articles got into the Diario, till the King himself was compelled to turn out the Padre. As 20,000 persons are employed and live by the press, though Spain is not a very reading country, it is feared that so many persons being deprived of their subsistence will cause serious disturbances. SHRINK LNG OF EA lITII.--The shrinking of earth in the New Town, Whitehaven, to which we adverted last week, still continues and excites considerable alarm. A joiner's shop, or moulding-room, belonging to the Earl of Lonsdale's foundry is so much rent and cracked that it will have to Le taken down, should it not tumble of its ()tan accord. This building, however, is connected with a moving hill in the rear, and hence the extensive damage it has sustained. The tall chimney attached to the foundry, though standing in the same y ard, b u t entirely unconnected with the hill, has not suffered the slightest in jury. The dwelling houses to the south of the foundry have a l s o been much damaged , but these like all the others similarly affected arc immediately connected with the im mense hill behind, where the fissures or cracks are nearly a foot wide. The most alarming feature connected with this mysterious circumstance is, that the bill is slowly but gradually moving onwards, and as no one can fix a limit to its progress, nor yet tell where it will stop, its conse quences cannot of course be foreseen.—Carlisle Patriot. HOLE AND CORNER PETITION.—We find in The Sun newspaper, that r. Wood presented a petition from Kendal, on Monday night. against the Government scheme for national education. When, where, and by whom was the said document got up? We never had any intima tionof it in Kendal.—Kendal Mercury. DEATIIS FROM ERYSIPELAS.—It is computed that two hundred persons have died within six weeks with inflammation on the brain, produced by this disease. If the head and neck of the person so suffering were to be well bathed every two hours with warm water, and then to be well rubbed for a considerable time with plenty of Holloway's Ointment, it would in all cases cure this dis ease. The wonderful powers of this extraordinary Oint ment over all external diseases are more than astonishing- It ought to be kept in every family. It can be obtained of any respectahl.c chemist and druggist throughout the king dom ; or of the proprietor, 13, Broad.street-buildings , City C. T. Cunningham, Esq., Secretary of Barba does, has been appointed to the Lieutenant-Governorsh i p of St. Kitt's. Mr. Cunningham belongs to the Liberal school of colonial politics. DIR.

PRICE sd. THAIUES YACHT CLUB. On Saturday the second match of the yachts of this club came otf at nine o'clock. The Royal Sovereign purpose steamer f w o,a a stt conveyingcoi unul though attendance t y t e , n e r d ba unfavourableaelec b a et Commodoret t t h er e fosruitt Adelaide ide fopofl wharf reatt hshueer emc pleasures feuoorbref: en joyment hishhn cc friends, and the visitors, to witness the sailing. The morn jeiolygcmulire'sanistoplol f sailing, than if the sun had shone out, and the skies exhibited a little blue. The wind was high and the rain descended in torrents. At tan o'clock the steamer got under weigh, and proceeded to Greenwich ; on her arrival at this place, Commodore Harrison, and several other members of the Club, went on shore to give Sir Thomas Hardy a❑ opportunity of seeing the Silver Cup which was to he the reward of the successful vessel. It was twelve o'clock before the signal gun was fired for the start, the wind was then blowing fresh from the south-west, or, in nautical language, south-south-west, and the tide was running down very fast. The river was covered with yachts and boats, many of which were decorated with flags and banners, which presented a gay and cheering appear ance. There were four yachts in the match which were at their moorings in the following order : Name. Ton. Owner. Colour. Petrel 2O IV. Egan, Esq Red, white and blue Victorine ...... IS T. and C. Stokes, Esq. Blue,with white cross Lady Louisa.... 13 T. Smith, Esq Blue Fortuna lB W. Pegg, Esq lied over white At the firing of the signal gun the 3achts got under weigh, their topmasts were down, and their whole appear ance showed that they expected a brisk gale. At starting the Lady Louisa took the lead, and was followed by her competitors in the following order..—The Fortuna, the Victorine, and the Petrel. The last three were nearly neck-and-neck, and in this way they prcceeded till they got to ‘Voolwich, when the Victorine took the lead, passing the Lady Louisa in fine style, and exhibiting superiority in her management and powers of sailing. The Lady Louisa then became the second boat, the Fortuna third, and the Petrel last. In this manner they pro ceeded some time, the wind increasing in power, and the interest of the match increasing in proportion. It was, however, very soon apparent that the Petrel had no chance of success, and at Greenhithe sl'e fairly backed out of the match, and was no more seen by her rivals in the race. The contest was then between three yachts. At half past two o'clock the Victorine rounded the flog buoy, which was anchored about two miles below Gravesend. She was followed by the Fortuna at•twenty minutes to three o'clock, and by the Lady Louisa at seventeen minutes to three. The weather now began to clear up, the sun shone out, and the company en board the steamer, who had hitherto been com pelled to crowd below deck, began to show themselves above board, and enjoy the pleasures of the day. The match, however, had lost its interest; it was no longer doubtful es to which yacht would be the win_ ner. The superiority of the Victorine was apparent, and, barring accidents, she was backed at any odds to win the cup. At five minutes to six o'clock the Victorine rounded the flag at Greenwich amidst the cheers of the company assembled on the terrace in front of the Royal Hospital, the company on board the steamer, and the com pany on board the numerous vessels and boats in the river. She was followed by the Fortuna at ten minutes past six, and by the Lady Louisa at eighteen minutes past six. The cup, an elegant silver-gilt one, surmounted with the figure of a sailor leaning on an anchor, was presented to the owner of the winning yacht by Commodore Harrison, who addressed the company in a neat and appropriate speech. The auditors then drank the health of the winner, with the usual honours. This match, though sailed under the most unsuccessful auspices as far as the weather was regarded, was most creditable to the skill of the competitors, and will enhance the high character of the Club. THE WOOLLEN TRADE. HALIFAX, SATURDAY.—We have again to report rather unfavourably of the state of things in our piece hall. The demand is very slack for most kinds of goods ; and prices are rather receding, if any thing. Wool is very firm, and some sorts a little dearer. 'cVAXEFIELD WOOL MARKET.—There is nothing to report of the state of this market essentially different from that of last week, except that some of the staplers evince a greater disposition to quit them of late ; but prices, as far as we can learn, arc unaltered. LEEDS, TUESDAY.-This market exhibited some stronger signs of life both on Saturday and Tuesday than of late, as parties are commencing their purchases for their winter stocks. In the better kinds of goods there is but little demand. Our export merchants con tinue busy ; and if the present demand for the United States would only continue, we should, on the wnole, have no cause of complaint. BRADFORD, THURSDAI.—In our piece market to day, the sales were on an unusually small scale, and manufacturers could not, in all cases, maintain the rates of last week. Short time must be the consequence of this state of things,if much longer continued. YARNS.—This market is in all respects as last week, with pehaps a little variation in the demand, which some think was rather more limited. WooL.—Some kinds of wool were easier to buy to day, but the generals runs were firm in price. THE QUEEN ' S CHEESE.—(From a Corres • pondent).—Somerset Tree, Sir, sends a stately cheese, ecighing no less than ono thousand pounds, as a present to her Majesty. Now, Sir, I don't mean to inquire whe ther young ladies of rank ever partake of this not inodorous food—l should think their breaths would not be the better for chewing cheese—but if the Somersetsbire farmers have of cheese enoup b, and to sparo, I put it to their common, sense, without appealing to their humanity, whether it would net be much better to bestcw their surplus cheese on those who really went it ? Aye, and if bread, too, were added to the cheese, hundreds of the starving sons o f in lestry would bless the hand that gave them food. CUTTING AND WOUNDING.—TwO cases of cutting and wounding. with intent to murder, were heard on Wednesday at the Centra l Criminal Court. In both i n . stances the prisoners were found guilty. One of th em was sentenced to fifteen years' transportation, the other to two months' imprisonment. The latter had received very great provocation. ESCAPE OF CONVICTS FROM WOOLWICH. Oa Tuesday morning a convict of the name of James Hyde made his escape at the breakfast hour Lnd h as not been re-taken. On Monday last anotlier convict att em p te d to make his escape fro m the convict-ship at th e W oo l w i c h Dockyard, by the following ingenious stratagem. Having clapped a coal - basket over his head, he found means to slip over the side of the ship , and:could doubtless have escaped unobserved, had not the attention of one of the guards been directed to the extrao r di nary c i rcu mstanee of seeing a basket floating against the tide. This induced inquiry, and the luckless inventor of this novel mode of navigation was recaptured. 2 3 lin rs,
