Since the Devonshire Giant thought proper to come To the MOSES' Mart—we shall look for " Tom Thumb.' We'll try to delight Mr. Thumb, if we can, Though he's not quite so big as the Devonshire man. The giant look'd fine in his officer's suit, And so would u Tom Thumb," that none will dispute. Though Tommy's not seven feet one and a-half, The public would have no occasion to laugh ; Tom Thumb would look better than ever he's done, If cloth'd with a suit from E. MOSES and SON. Look does not depend on the wearer at all— A form may be great, or a form may be small— But if MOSES and SUN have to do with the matter, They can make a fine man of the former or latter. Then let Mr. Thumb to MOSESES' came, We shall charge him, of course, but a very small sum. We never charge much for the clothes that we sell, And that's why the Warehouses answer so well.

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 51101. ;would be paid lees the 51. retained. The assured may thus have the nse for the first year of 5/. ; for the second, of 101. ; 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 payable by the Company.

TREASURY. 4th Edition, Ss. 6d.; D I SASTROUS GALES.—The BOARD of MANAGEMENT of the SIIIPIVIIECKED F ISHERMEN and MARINERS' BENEVOLENT, SOCIETY have received letters from various of their auxiliary branches, containing the most painflil accounts of the wrecks occasioned by the late unexpected gales. In many instances fishermen and mariners have perished, leaving their widows, orphans, and aged parents in complete destitution ; and in other cases where the lives of the crews of vessels and boats have been preserved, the men have lost all that they possessed, and been landed at a distance from their own homes. The demands upon the funds of the Society have, there fore, been both heavy and numerous to administer to the neces sities of the surviving relatives of the deceased, and to clothe, shelter, and forward to their families the castaway mariners. The Board of Management entreat that the public will continue to reader them that assistance which they have hitherto so generously afforded. It may be mentioned, as one amongst the benefits which this In stitution must confer upon the inhabitants of this kingdom, inland as well as upon the coast, that it must put an end to the practice of imposters travelling the country, represelting themselves as ship wrecked seamen, inasmuch as the public, feeing assured that all true cof distress from storms at sea will obtain prompt and efficient relief from this Charity, by the means of its extensive agencies (633 in slumber), may suspend affording alms to all such applicants, and by contributing to this Institution (the annual subscription to which is only 2s. 6d.) mitigate real sorrow, and defeat the designs of such unprincipled persons.

The traffic which exists between Dublin and the south and south western districts of Ireland, fully justifies the construction of a main trunk line of railway from Dublin to Cashel, with a branch to Athy and Carlow. From this main trunk the country is most favourable for branches to Clonmel, Limerick, and Galway, and of being exten ded to Cork, as pointed out in the Report of Mr. Macneill. The country to be traversed is singularly favourable for the con struction of a railway, and, with a slight variation, is the line recom mended by the Government Commissioners in their Report, present ing no difficulties or obstacles of any kind, and requiring but little cutting or embanking, which enables the Engineer to pledge himself that the cost will not exceed 1,300,000/. for the entire work, including stations, carrying establishment, &c.. complete, being at the rate of 11,000/. per mile. From Mr. Macneill's great professional experience, and from the successful and economical manner in which he has just brought the Dublin and Drogheda Railway works to a completion within his es timate, the Committee has every confidence that the calculations Ba nished by him for the present work will be found sufficient. It is fortunate that the nature of the country through which the line is to be made is such, that, in the event of the atmospheric principle of transit being found from experience to be preferable to that of loco motive engines, it may be applied to this Railway without any in convenience or disadvantage, as no deeper cuttings or embankments would be required for the locomotive, than would be prudent or desir able for the atmospheric principle. The traffic is probably not exceeded on any line of equal extent in the United Kingdom at present unoccupied by a railway, and holds out very great inducements for the investment of capital. The re turns on whicluthe calculation of traffic is founded, are taken from those published by the Railway Commissioners, and which, by a subsequent inquiry, are found to be considerably underrated. Give a yearly income of.. •• • • • • • • • • • • • • £182,000 From which deduct maintenance and working at 40 per cent 73,000 Leaving a profit of £109,000 per ann Which, on a capital of One Million, and a loan of £300,000, would give a dividend of 9} per cent. It is to be observed, that any amount . obtained by loan from Government, thereby lessening the extent of capital to be called up, must necessarily be attended by an increase of dividend to the subscribers.

G WALIOR. The following description of Owalior, which we extract from the " Hand-book of India," will render the description of the attack more intelligible, and explain also the almost insuperable difficul ties our troops had to surmount : "On the south of Agra, distant 74 miles, stands Gwatior, the scat of the ancient sovereignty of Sindia. The recent death of Maharaja, and the serious disruption which has resulted there from, has rendered it necessary for the Governor-General of India to march a large force to the frontier of the state; and while we pen these pages it is quite impossible to say whether the self-ap pointed Regent, who has seized the reins of power, has been con. firmed in his authority, or who-her the British Government has intervened, and placed the country on the footing of other states enjoying our protection. By the latest accounts all was anarchy and confusion. We must, therefore, in this place content our selves with a brief description of the town and fortress. The city is approached by a footpath over some trifling clay and sandstone heights, from which it is seen to advantage, lying wader the wing of the giant stronghold, which rises in a complete precipice from its very bosom, and interspersed with trees and minarets, after the usual fashion of native cities. The suburbs are somewhat scanty, and there is no wall lof defence to the town, which, however, by means of strong portals connecting the parallel streets, and open.. ing or closing the communication at the pleasure of the inhabi. tants, as well as by the aid of the external gates, is 'capable of making a brief defence against any irregular attack. These gate_ ways are singularly elegant, although a jumble of modern and Hindoo architecture. They are built of sandstone. The gateway itself is an architrave of stone, supported upon ornamented co. lumns of the same. Above this rises the pointed Saracenic arch, and above that are elegant arabesque bas-reliefs, the roof of the structure being flat, " The Jinni - ma Musjid is a handsome building, in the style of those at Lucknow. On turning the flank of the defences we come upon the grandest and most imposing exhibition of mili tary architecture ever beheld. We doubt if the world contains anything so magnificent as this long lino of Gothic towers, scarped by an overhanging precipice ; poised in mid-air, dignified by the impress of the ages that have passed over their heads, yet unim. paired in strength and beauty, and presenting, not the blind aspect of mere holds of power, in which a garrison is pent up and excluded from the outer world, but that of the fittest possible residence for a mighty Sovereign, the object of all regards, raised above the world by his grandeur, and gazing down, from its unapproachable eminence, upon the kingdom submitted to his rule. It is impossible to imagine this noble mass of architecture designed for the vile purposes for which its isolated position afterwards rendered it convenient. But in exact proportion to our admiration of the structure is our indignation at the tyranny, the cruelty, the barbarous and murderous policy, for which no language has epithets sufficiently severe, of which Gwalior was the theatre, and continues the memorial; and as we gaze upon its lofty battle. ments, and recal to memory the hundreds of unhappy captives con demned to waste away in perpetual imprisonment, or to escape this prolongation of misery only by the slow operation of a poison, that destroys by sapping all the fountains of life, and poisoning all the springs of enjoyment and breaking down the firmness of a he ar t that would have defied, in its health, the extremity of torture; thus reducing the noblest to .the quality of the vil est, and making him, previous to his end, the scorn even of himself—when, we say, we reflect how many victims to royal jealousy have here rotted away into oblivion, there only crime that of having hung at the same breast with their murderer, or, perchance, of having a better claim than his to the throne, or of having excelled him in virtue, or being beloved by their fellow-men, we turn shuddering from the grandeur which had so greatly excited our admiration, and mourn that infamy should have been permitted so unsuitable a shrine. Had those towers been clad in some of the gloomy hor rors which their interior has witnessed, they would have been a beacon of terror to the world. To the thoughtful they yet hold - • _ .

" It is not possible to give anything like an adequate idea of this surpassing fortress without the aid of the pencil and colours. The cliff upon which it stands is perfectly perpendicular, formed apps. rently, of sandstone, and it extends round the entire circuit of the fortified height. The defences, which, on the other sides, though adequate to their object, are dwindled into comparative insignifi cance by immediate contrast with the massive hill on which they stand, are here of the noblest dimensions and the most graceflil form, being a long series of circular towers, closely connected by curtains of nearly similar height, and roofed in with small domes of masonry ; the whole having, in addition to shot-holes. embra. • sures, &c., an abundance of glazed windows, betokening the dwel ling of rational creatures; while the masonry itself is adorned with glazed tiles, which, whatever their effect when recent, retain at present only those tints which becdme a venerable fabric, and that fabric of the Gothic style. The entire circuit of these defences appeared tome about three miles ; their form an oblong rectangle. The summit of the height, as is usual in the sand formation, is nearly flat. The height of the precipice is about 200 feet, and the height from the foot of the precipice to the level •f tise town about 200 feet more, making a total height of about 400 feet. " In the steepest face of the cliff, at the north aspect and north. east angle, are several caves, probably communicating by subter ranean galleries with the interior. One, in particular, contains a gigantic image of Pars Nath, distinctly visible from beneath. These caves may be convenient to the garrison during siege, but are extremely dangerous to the safety of the place, as a single 10-inch shell would, by exploding within the cavity, in all probe bility bring down the whole of the north.east-angle, which is, even now, overhanging the perpendicular. They appear, however, to be intended as temples, rather than posts of observation. " The great facility of breaching, by means of mines, a fort thus constructed, renders it, in the hands of most native states, a more bugbear in the face of an enterprising enemy. TheJats, however would make a gallant defence in the breach of such a lofty emi nence ; and, in the hands of the English, famine alone, or failure in military supplies, could render it untenable ; for the extent is too great to afford much fear frbm shells, and any imaginable breach in that cliff, with a crowd of armed Britons at the summit, would be an awful ladder to renown. These are considerations too much neglected by us in the present day. We find these forts yield to our arms almost without a struggle, and ws attribute to defect of construction what is really due to the cowardice of the besieged. It is true that the plunging fire from their walls is not much to be dreaded, and that, without trenches, the operation of mining may at once be commenced be neath the cliff; but, on the other hand, the garrison are exempt from all molestation by the fire of the besiegers, excepting in the instances of their shells, and would thus be enabled to preserve their strength unbroken for the breach. Upon that breach not a gun could be brought to bear from below ; and the neighbouring heights, all considerably depressed beneath the level of the works, and at no inconsiderable distance from them, would afford no po sition from which an effectual fire could be maintained, or ftom which a shot could be ventured during the assault; while the breach itself would in all probability be a steep hill side, encum— bered with massive fragments, sufficiently difficult to surmount in the absence of danger, and almost hopeless in the face of a de- termined enemy, who could not be molested in intrenching it. A sap carried up such a height would be a most arduous and desperate • undertaking, and, unless some means of nightly escalade could be devised, the efforts of the besiegers would be sufficiently hope less. We have seen and felt what it is to surmount a lofty wall of soft sand in the case of Bhurtpore, which is a mere mole-hill In comparison. So that if the Government is desirous of preserving a few strongholds in the country, which were no unwise policy, it could scarcely do better than retain such hill forts as Gwalior, when they chance to fall into its hands. Of the city •f Gwalior littleneed be said. With every facility for building at hand, it possesses few edifices that can attract the attention, and, for the capital of a large state, is very far below mediocrity in every respec•, whether we regard the narrowness of its limits, the poverty of its streets and buildings, or the almost entire want of that appearance of busy traffic which characterises all important towns under the British Government. Indeed, there is little temptation to the import of merchandise in a country so infested with open robbers, and with every species of extortion, under the plea of customs. " The residency of Gwalior is a mean building, and scarcely any sort of state has been kept up by the British representative. It • has only been on the occasion of a visit of ceremony from the Go. ♦ernor-General to the Maharaja that the place has presented any scenes of pomp. Sindia kept up an army of semi.disciplined troops 30,000 strong, officered by Portuguese and Eurasian gentlemen; but how this will stand after the present chaos has been reduced to • order it is difficult to say." CHINA. (From the Hong-Kong Register, Dec. 12.) GLEANINGS FROM THE PEKING GAZETTES OP SEPTEMBER. VICTORY OF THE IMPERIAL ARMS.—The Imperial arms have ob. tained a decided advantage over the mountaineers of Kokonor, who for a long while moat obstinately resisted the Chinese authorities, and at one time even threatened an invasion of the neighbouring province Szechuon. Several Mongul chiefs who gave assistance to the regular soldiers, and by their bravery and perseverance broke the spirit of the rebels, are to be promoted, and to receive all the attic they took as a reward. BIRMAN Esvov.—A tribute bearer from Ava having appeared on the frontiers of Yunnan, stated that he had brought the customary tribute of his master, due to his liege lord, the great Emperor. And since the letter conveying the intelligence was couched in the most submissive terms, the embassy was received in the most gra cious manner. The importation of saltpetre, according to an Imperial decree, instead of, as hitherto, being restricted, is to be encouraged in all the five ports, as it can be brought and sold to Government agents at a far cheaper rate than it could .be manufactured in China. The annnal expenditure of the out.port Yarkand (near Caubul), and an adjacent military station, was 64,850 taels. Camphor (according to the decision of the Superintendent of Customs at Ainoy), if for foreign exportation, has to pay a double duty by the native dealer as well as by the buyer. Crintinals sentenced to death for opium smoking are again to be reported at the Imperial autumnal revision of all cases of capital punishment. Two hostile classes in Chaouchoo district, to the east of Can. ton, having engaged in bloody feuds, the Provincial Judge has been sent down with powers over life and death, to quell these disturbances.—Conlon Report. Muhelsangah and others have submitted various proposals made by Keying, which bear upon the subject of collecting duties. And the Privy Council, as well as the Board of Revenue, having taken them into consideration, and submitted them with their opinions thereon to the Emperor, they are approved of and con. firmed. Our correspondents at Chusan writes us, under date Nov. '24, as follows :—Thera is not much business doing here at present, and price.; for all descriptions of goods are low, the market having been latterly well supplied. The following ships are in our harbour :—Eliza Stewart, Ellen Stewart, Ardaseer, Amazon, Ternate, Louisa, Zoe, Vixen, Snipe, Soundrapovy, Anna Maria, Swallow, Frankland, Fortescue, and Poppy; also H. M. ships Cambrian, Pelican, and Medusa steamer. The Wolf is stationed at shanghai, and the Pelican is to be stationed at Ningpo, when the port is opened. The Plover and Young Hebe are surveying between this and the Yang-tze-Kiang river. The weather is still mild for the season of the year, with occasionally a showery day, but fires are still necessary. The natives, however, predict a severe winter. The troops and inhabitants generally are very healthy. We had races last month, which afforded a good deal of anus*. ment for a few days, and which, with an occasional rerformance by our amateur corps dratnalique, serves to break the monotony of our life and to give ussomething to talk about, till smothered by the all absorbing event of the arrival of a ship, and the probability of her having an English mail on board. Along with this I send you a copy of Captain Balfour's notifi cation upon the opening of the port of Shanghai on the 17th inst. The only ships which have as yet entered are the Island Queen, Litherland, Mazeppa, Louisa Campbell, and the Valparaiso (America). The barque William the Fourth was seen entering the river upon the 20th inst., direct from Manilla. Business is reported as likely to go on favourably, but little yet is known, as the port had only opened two or three days at the date of our last accounts from there. ~~_i ~~~~ LONDON, MONDAY EVENING SUN, MARCH 11, 1844. PRICE sd. NOTIFICATION. CITY OF SPIANGIIAT, Nov. 14, 1843.—1 hereby notify to all her Majesty's subjects that I have temporarily established the British consulate within the city of Shanghai, in a street situated close to the walls, between the east and west gates. I solicit the co.operation of all parties in aiding me to conduct the duties entrusted to my charge. In communication with the intendent of circuit and superintendent of customs, the port of Shanghai is de. dared open for trade an the 17th inst., and from which date all the regulations relating thereto will be in force. For the present the limits of the port of Shanghai are declared to be within the lines formed by the point bearing west and the bat. tery on the right bank at the mouth of the river below Woosung bearing south-west, . . The place of anchorage for loading and unloading within the port is as close over as possible to the left bank at the head of the river, adjacent to a creek named the Woosung Row, which, at about the distance of three-quarters of a mile below the walls of Shaeghai, discharges its waters into the Shanghai river; and when the number of vessels may render it requisite, ships must anchor head and stern, leaving the navigation of the river clear, and the mouth of the Woosung Bow well open. The tariff, general regulations, and various proclamations pro. mulgated by his Excellency Sir Henry Pottinger, Bart., and G.C.8., her Majesty's Plenipotentiary for conductidg the commercial inter course with China, must be strictly adhered to by myself, as well as by those resorting to this port. The intendent of circuit and superintendent of customs Las established a Government banking establishment, or shroff shop, for the receipt of tonnage dues, and import and export duties, and has fixed the office in the street leading from the little east gate of the city to the bank of the river; the firm being held by six partners, named Yaoo Hang Yuen:Choo 'Joshing, Maou Hangho, Kwo Wantung, Choo Iluenjee, King Yuenke ; any one of whom is empowered to grant receipts for moneys paid on account of the above purposes. Standard weights and measures are lodged in the office of the consulate, and as all duties will be fixed and levied according to these standards, British merchants are recommended to provide themselves with acts, which can easily be obtained at Shanghai, and the propriety of endeavouring to bring the same into general use is submitted for consideration. As the differen t trades and professions at this place have different weights and measures, and as done agree with the Government st indard fixed for the five ports, particular caution is essential In all commercial transactions, to have the catty and covid, by which the transaction is to be settled, well defined, and it will prevent difficulties and loss, to be cautious in reposing confidence until the charactcrs and conduct of parties are better known. Arrangements are in progress for selecting a suitab!e site for dwelling and store.houses, for settling by assay the per ventage to be paid on silver coins, and to raiso the silver thereof to the standard of fineness fixed for the payment of the duties; for estab lishing a place for the Custom.house, examinations of goods landed and shipped off, and for appointing pilots, and adopting other arrangements to facilitate the navigation in and out of the port. Due intimation will be given on the completion of the measures connected with any of the above named points, which must for the present be considered as still unsettled. Although it is desirable to adhere to the usual hours for the transaction of business, yet it will be clearly understood that, when necessary, the consulate will be open to all persons, at all hours, and any aid and information which can be afforded by the consular establishment will, as a matter of duty, be willingly given on & poi_ cation either by writing or personal communication.

THE BEST FRIENDS OF THE TORIES.—We observe that both League and Anti-League meetings in London have lately been broken in upon by the Chartists, and con. verted into scenes of confusion and uproar—by way, we sup pose, of showing the superior toleration, liberality, and love of discussion, of Chartist politicians, over every other section of the community. This policy of the Chartists is, how ever, no new pjlicy. It has already been tried before in this country, when Toryism was in the ascen dant. In the times of Sidmouth and Castlereagh, hired ruffians used to be sent into public meetings to in terrupt the proceedings, and convert them, if possible, into scenes of turbulence and violence. By this means the mid dle classes were forced into the arms of the Government., despotic though it was, as their only protection from de struction. It is lamentable to reflect that the same policy is now being pursued .(we knew not exactly a twhose insti gation) by the men who put themselves forward as the leaders of the poular party. Whatever be the object, the tendency of the policy is now the same as' formerly—it is to put down pub lic meetings, to neutralize the power of the popular party, to disgust all thinking men with their intolerance and bigotry, and greatly to strengthen the Tory Government, by causing the middle and upper classes to fly to them for protectlint, rather than be exposed to the tyranny and despotism-of- un principled demagogues. We have no hesitation in saying that the violent and despotic proceedings at public meetings during the last three or four years, have done more to damage the liberal cause and injure the liberties of the public, than a Tory Government could have d one i n twenty years.—Leeds Tinto. -e_ / .&< Nc s ale " )-0 brt 9 I
