IMPORTANT TO CAPITALISTS.-THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF CONSIDERABLE EXTENT, IN HIGH REPUTE, AND CARRYING ON AT THIS MOMENT AN IMMENSE TRAFFIC. MR. GEORGE ROBINS begs to notify to the Public he is directed by those interested in this value able Property, to SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on THURSDAY, the 17th October, at Twelve, in One Lot, and perem torily, a WILSON'S SCOTTISH MINSTRELSY.—Mr. Wilson is at present making a tour through Sussex, Hampshire, Kent, and Surrey, and in all the towns which he has visited, he has been greeted with crowded and enthusias tic audiences. At Brighton on Friday night and Satur day morning the Newburgh-rooms were crowded to ex cess, and many ladies and gentlemen were compelled to leave without being able to gain admission. On Satur day morning, while Mr. Wilson was reading an extract from one of Burns's letters to Mr. George Thomson, he said he could not help mentioning that that gentleman, who had prompted Burns to write so many of his finest lyrics, and who had been a correspondent of Burns sixty years ago, was in the room this morning, and, though several years above fourscore, still enjoyed ex cellent health. Mr. Thomson was sitting very near Mr. Wil , on, and seemed to enjoy most heartily the manner in which he gave several of Burns's songs. The men tion of the old gentleman's name raised the curiosity of the audience, and every eye was strained to get a glimpse of him. Mr. Wilson promised another visit to Brighton in a few weeks, before he starts for Scotland, and in the meantime goes into Gloucestershire, Devon• shire, the Isle of Wright and other places. ACCIDENT ON VA UXII ALL- BRIDGE. —On Friday morning, as a young man was driving a valuable young horse, in a light cart, over Vauxhall- bridge, the horse suddenly shied at two large stones lying near the pave ment, swerved on one side, and threw the driver. The horse then started off at full speed, when the gate keeper closed the gate, which the poor animal endea voured to clear, but, owing to the dead weight behind, fell back with great force on the iron spikes INith which the gate is studded, two of the spikes entering the under jaw, and lacerating it in a dreadful manner. The poor creature commenced plunging violently, smashing the vehicle, and at length succeeded in disengaging himself from the spikes, which were much bent, the whole of the under-jaw being literally flayed, and the throat and windpipe dreadfully cut. MR. D'ISRAELI AND HIS CON STITUENTS. (From the Shropshire Conservative.) On Monday Mr. D'lsraeli paid a visit to Shrewsbury, to meet his constituents and explain his Parliamentary conduct during the past session. The Shrewsbury Con servative Club met in the Assembly-room of the Lion Hotel on Wednesday, Mr. James Whitney, in the chair. Upwards of 400 electors were present, and the health of 11r. D'lsraeli being proposed by the chairman, was trunk with enthusiastic cheering. In replying to the toast the Hon. Gentleman made a long speech, from which we can only give brief extracts. Mr. D'lsnaem—Gentlemen, your respected chairman has recommended me to your notice as a champion who came forward to fight your battles in a time of need, when there was no other candidate to be found, and ge nerously acknowledges that that circumstance should be the foundation of your future support. I cannot but feel grateful for so flattering a suggestion ; but I am not desirous myself of claiming your future support from feelings of past gratitude, and would rather let my future conduct be the basis on which you should build your confidence, and that my claim should ever rest, not as a past candidate, but as your present representative.— (Cheers.) I soon had an opportunity , of having my promise tested ; for, upon my arrival in London, the first information I received on entering the lobby of the House of Commons was, that Government had determined to force the Canadian Corn Bill through the House ; and my informant inquired what course I should adopt. I answered that, however painful it might be to my feelings to oppose the Ministers, I should not hesitate for a moment in voting against the measure. I did so ; .and a Member of the Government—a Cabinet Minister —the same evening aekeeleese why I did so ; and said that the people orShrewslitirY did not care about the measure. It is possible, gentlemen, that you might have forgiven my tergiversation had I voted for the mea sure. and explained to you my reason for doing so was , he difficulties in which the Conservative Ministers were placed ; but I had not the moral courage, nor the immo ral audacity, to say one thing to my constituents at Shrewsbury, and within twenty-four hours vote diame trically opposite in London.—(Loud cheers.) This, gen tlemen, was the first occasion on which I was under the painful necessity of opposing my friends, the Conserva tive Ministry ; but, as a man of honour I ask you, could I have done otherwise, or could I have rendered my op position less offensive ? At that time there was a most powerful party arrayed against the Government, and how easy it would have been for me to have made a vio lent and damaging speech against them, and have in flamed the passions of those friends who were then in opposition ? Such a course of action on my part would have told with double effect, because I had defended the Ministry on their two previous measures ; but I had no wish to do so, and I only recorded my silent suffrage against them. Still, gentlemen, I hare been told that nay opposition was factious. Does such conduct as that appear factious to you ?—(Cries of " No, no.") Not long after this, a motion of vital importance, I consider, to the well-being of the working classes, although not a political measure, was brought forward by a nobleman tamed fur his philanthropy, and in some measure connected with this county I need scarcely say that 'I mean Lord Ashley. The motion I speak of was for limiting the duration of labour as far as regards women and children. There is no subject, gentlemen, on which I have taken a deeper interest than the condition, of the working classes. Long before what is called the condition of the peo ple" question was discussed in the House of Commons, I had employed my pen on the subject. I had long been aware that there was something rotten in the core of our social system. I had seen that while immense fortunes were accumulating—while wealth was increasing to a superabundance—and while Great Britain was cited throughout Europe as the most prosperous nation in the world—the working classes, the creators of wealth, were steeped in the most abject poverty, and gradually sink ing into the deepest degradation.—(Hear, hear) As I stated before, gentlemen, there is something unsound in the present state of our social system—one-half the population is overworked, and the other half under-paid. —(hear.) It is from these circumstances that we wit ness the extraordinary scenes of misery and insubordi nation in the manufacturing districts, and see whole pro vinces in flames in the agricultural.—(Hear.) The noble Lord whom I before mentioned had deeply thought on 'hose circumstances ; he had, without political, and cer tainly without factious motives, instituted committees of inquiry, who had published reports on the condition of the labouring classes, full of details so astounding that they had caused a sensation throughout the entire king dom, which has never been equalled since the publica tion of the first report on the slave trade. Upon the noble Lord bringing forward his measure for reducing the hours of labour of women and children, I, with a powerful party, composed of men of all political creeds, voted in its favour. The Government having been twice defeated by the Noble Lord, you would have thought that they would have bowed to the decision of the House. But no. A Cabinet Council was held, and Sir Robert Peel came down to the House and called upon the Members to rescind their votes. I wish to speak here with frankness; it has been said by some, that this was an unconstitutional, an illegal, and a violent act of Sir Robert Peel. It certainly is not so. I do not think it is unconstitutional for a Minister to request the House of Commons to reconsider any question upon which there is a possibility that they might have been mis taken. It certainly is one of the last efforts of a Mi nister; but, the House having rescinded their vote, I consider that Sir Robert Peel was amply justified in the course he pursued.—(Hear, hear.) You do not, I am sure, consider it factious on my part because I voted against the Ministry on these occasions—l deeply de plored the difficulties they had to contend against, but I ties.—(Hear, hear.) Wh a t, however, was the next step of this Conservative G overnmen t ? I n the last throes couldan dagonies a n my pri nc ipl es b eca use of those difficul ties.—(Hear, of the Whig Administration, Lord John Russell brought forward a measure which would mate rially injure the interests of our West India colonists. This was done by th e exp i r i ng Mi n i str y i n the hope of ex citing the symp a thi es o f a l arge an d p ow erful class, and to endeavour to draw wealth into an impoverished exchequer. Sir Robert Peel and the Conservative party o pposed that Bill, and the Whigs were driven from office upon it. This is not the place to discuss the merits of the Bill. I only want to place the facts of the case be fore you, so that you, as a jury, should decide upon my conduct. What did the Conservative party do when in o ffice ? Lord Sandon—avowedly under the direction of Sir Robert Peel—brought in a Bill virtually, if not pre cisely, the same as the one upon which the Whigs were e xpelled from office. I am not ambitious enough, nor vain enough, to place myself in juxtaposition with Sir Robert Peel ; he has means of information which might have shown him that he was wrong on his first opposition to the Bill, and might have seen the ne cessity of adopting it on the present occasion ; but if he possesses those extraordinary means, lie should have taken some pains to teach his supporters the secret, or, at all events, make some appeal to their feelings and un derstandings for the necessity of its adoption. Instead of that, however, he came down most abruptly to the House, and called upon his followers to support him, without taking the trouble to assign any reason for the sudden change. What could I and the independent por tion of his followers do ? Why, vote precisely as we voted three years before. Was that factious ? The first time I came down amongst you as your representa tive, I said in this room, " I have fulfilled the first pledge I gave you—l have turned out the Whigs ;" but could I have come before you as an honest man on the present measure which I voted against to turn chee rs .) O n th a t occas i on I ofourtt occasion, itihees elvl a f n -hs d i agmssitey' " I have k e pt i n th e T or i es , by vo ti ng ?"-(Loud again gave a silent vote, not because I was not desired, nay, requested, by some of the most eminent men to speak on the subject ; but I had a great personal regard for the Prime Minis ter, and I felt that I could not enter into the to bhjis ctfe g much that would be un pleasant abstained f r om speakin g . The division took p lace, an d the Ministers were beaten sueelings. without asanydin I —the strong Conservative Government was defeated, and great was the wailin g a nd gnashing of teeth. No gentlemen could be brought up from the country to cover the defeat—no Member s cou ld h e preva il e d upon to unsay what or undo they had said or done pre viously, and consternation prevailed in the Ministerial ranks. It was rumoured that the Ministers were about to resign. Indeed, I was told —not as a secret—by two members of the A dministration, that they actually had resigned. I can assure you that it was with feelings of great pain I received this intelligence, b u t it did not alter my conviction on the measure • Upon entering the House of Commons, .however, I fou n d t h at t h ey h a d not resigned; but that Sir Robert Peel had determined on asking us again to rescind our votes, and said if we did not do so we must abide by the consequences. I could not silently obey the imperious mandate which he put forth; and I warmly and passionately, but quite unpre meditatedly, expressed my feelings on the subject. The manner of my address, and the expres s i ons I use d , were, perhaps, not so exactly proper as if I had been more prepared; but the circu mstances of the case were a suffi warmth, and I cient justification of m y do not now re gret or wish to recal a single expression I then made use of.— (Loud cheers.) When the division came, how ever, the Ministers were in a majority ; but how was that majority obtained? Why, the champions, the orators, the oracles of the Anti-Corn law League crossed the House, and carried the 1% inisters in triumph to th e ir lobby.—(Hear, hea • ) Was I wron g in the conduct I had pursued? No. In two days afterwards the most prudent of orators, if not of statesmen, came down to the House and made an apologetic speech, for the first time in his life—because he bad always been more cautious, more courteous, and because, in fact, he had never before given offence.—(hear , hea r. ) Was not that a sufficient justification of my con duct ? His own friends said afterwards that they were astonished at his want of caution, want of temper, and the arrogant and imperious tone he adopted on the occasion; and if I had sat silent during the haughty address, and craven like had trembled on my seat without the courage to resent it, how could I have dared afterwards to meet honourable and jade pendent men, and say I had done my duty to them 6,3 their representative ?—(Loud and long-continued cheers ) I have entered into the details of these circumstances longer than I fear has been pleasant to you ; but they are not utterly without interest to you. I have do tiame —no powerful interest—no great influence—l am nothing in the House of Commons but Member for Shrewsbury ; and part of the obloquy which I may draw upon myself must necessarily fall . upon you ; and if I should gain a little triumph, let me know that you Will share it with me, and that you will enable me to say, " We elected this stranger, and will support him, for we have found him an independent and an honest representative." The Hon. Member gave a brief sketch of his career in the House of Commons, and concluded by saying—All men have their great object, and I have attained it already. If I had wanted a crumb of the public plunder, I have little doubt that I could have gained it as other men have. Let me be fairly understood. I am no political Pharisee, to thank God that I am not like this man of that man. If I had the same objects in view, lam per haps as frail in my nature as others, and would use the same means to attain the sathe end. I nepire, however, to gain public fame, public respect, and public approba tion. If I can achieve this I shall have attained all I seek for. This is my ambition—let other men follow theirs. They may ridicule the magnificence of my aspirations, and endeavour to taint the purity of my mo tives. Let them do so ; they will not induce me to alter my course. I seek no pecuniary reward ; I have ample reward in the generous, the honest, the confiding support of a thorough English constitu ency. If I have not an independent constituency, where am I to look for one ? 'Where is the proud Baron, or the many-acred Squire, who can i nperiotssly say to you, " Return me this man or that as your repre sentative?" You are no political sham, but an honest and independent constituency, equal in intelligence to one half of the Members of the House of Commons. I met you first, perhaps, in a great measure by accident ; but I had not long been among you before I said to my self, "I have row found a society of enlightened men in whom I can confide, and if they place confidence in me, the smiles or frowns of a Minister will have no effect on my conduct."—(Cheers.) The miserable insinuations of third-rate men, who hint that I have been refused a place, and that the independent course I have taken against the Ministry arises from disappointment, have no effect on me, and I will never take the trouble to answer them. Sir Robert Peel knows me—we have 132(n some years on terms of private intimacy, and he knows me too well to think for a moment that any pecu niary circumstances influence my conduct. Let him — the Minister—once statethst in public, and I will answer the charge, but not till then. No, gentlemen, I aspire to no petty post or miserable pecuniary benefit—let those who do obtain them ; they have my consent. I aspire to rise in the eyes of the public ; and, let who will be Minister, I will fearlessly follow the dictates of my own conscience, for I know I can return to my con stituents without dread, confident that they will appre ciate my motives and support me in my independent ex ertions.—(Cheers.) These words, gentlemen, are not uttered during the heat and excitement of a contested election—neither are they the bragadocian boastings of a tavern oration—they are words I wish you to recollect —words, let me tell you, I have spoken in my place in the House of Commons to the Prime Minister. No man has given a more generous, a more disinterested, and let me ad,l—when in opposition—a more efficient sup port ; I have had frequent tokens of his private grai • tude, and during the last session I have received the public testimony of his respect. I was his supporter when in adversity—in prosperity I will not be his slave. (The Honourable Gentleman sat down amid tremendous cheering.) MEHEMET ALL (From the Examiner.) A youthful prank, played by an old gentleman of eighty, Mehemet Ali, has frighted the Levant, and but for the more juvenile pranks of the French, would have caused still greater affright. His sage Highness, the Nestor of the Mediterranean, went to a party, committed an excess, and got so uproarious and extravagant, that no Irishman, before the invention of teetotalism, ever equalled it. He beat his women, cuffed his Minister, cursed- his physician, broke his pipe, and flung his fez out of the window. At last he sent for 250,000 purses, and flinging himself into a boat, set sail, or oars, for Cairo, bent on a spree, but acquainting his worthy Alexandria subjects that he was bound for Mecca. The old sinner ! Sheridan, dead drunk, acquainting the watchmen who picked him up that he was no other than Mr. Wilberforce, lied not more comically than Me hemet Ali, when he said he was going to Mecca. But we much fear that we could never let our readers into the mysteries of the Oriental ergie, nor describe, except in metaphor, a Turkish jollification. We can merely imitate those artists who condescend but to sketch, who draw a line here, daub a shade there, and leave every one to fill up the pic ture for himself. The feast in question was given by Mehemet's daughter, the widow of Defterdar Bey ; in honour, too, of the wedding of one of the family. The old Pacha was invited, and was served, of course, alone, with viands the most spicy, and drinks the most exciting. The drink was not wine, for that is forbidden by the prophet. It rather resembled that drink at Irish temperance halls, where whiskey is pro hibited, but where cordials concocted of alcohol dis guised with ginger and pimento, are swallowed, as not only compatible with the pledge, but highly honouring it. So Mehemet's tipple was more of the spicy than the spirituous. Anti instead of making him good-natured in his cups, it made his Highness very much the con trary ; for he set about beating all the women, to the horror of eunuchs, black and white. He then made off, as we have described, in a tangent, Ibrahim going to all sorts of devices to send his physicians after him ; smug gling them first into the house, and then into the boat. Such is a magre and true outline of an event which has much alarmed politicians, and even the Alexandrians, although their affright was considerably intermixed with laughter. There was neither conspiracy nor revolution. It was not a deep-laid plot of Ibrahim's, nor yet of the Marquis of Lavalette, French Consul, nor yet of any hostile Turk. It was simply the political effect of a social orgie. A WELCOME DISCOVERT.—A week or two ago, while a boat's crew were at work at Loch Ryan, fishing —not for fins, but sweet-smelling seaweed, to be applied as manure—the drag grappled some harder substance, which, when raised to the surface, resembled strongly a batch of oysters. This species of shell-fish abounds in one of the loveliest marine lakes in Scotland, stretching for leagues, shaped like a fan, rippling opposite shores, including Glenapp, and leading directly to Ailsa Craig. Oysters, like muscles, and the whole barnacle tribe, cling tenaciously to every firm substance, particularly buoys, which in some situations are dragged downwards to an extent that they require to be cleaned, painted, and re floated from their sand-bank moorings once a year. In the present case, the unknown article was taken on board, and when freed by scraping from a thick coating of shell fish, a kernel stood revealed, in the welcome form of a large jar of excellent cognac brandy. The fishermen, as may be supposed, were quite overjoyed to find both meat and drink thus unexpectedly provided ; knives were in immediate requisition, and, after lunching heartily on oysters, each man received a bumper noggin, to stimulate or quicken the process of digestion, and put him in good humour for further exertion. how long the jar had lain in brine, shallow at the side, or:bywhat accident it was placed in such a position,gare questions which it is easier to put than answer ; but we suppose the piscators would hare no objection to a similar windfall every time they put to sea, whether in netting herrings or dragging for dulce and tangle.—Greenock Journal. DEWSBURY.—COMICAL ADVENTURES.—MOHday last being Brewster sessions, at Wakefield, and likely to be the last there for the Dewsbury publicans to attend in that town (Dewsbury being about to have a district sessions for all purposes), the stout landlords and their dames, mostly " fat, fair, and forty," along with a num ber of their friends, must needs pay the farewell Brews ter visit. Conveyances of all sorts and sizes were in re quisition and obtained, well loaded with the owners of the been barrel and representatives of the bung hole, who in a short time were jogging their journey to Wakefield. Some fine sport took place on the road. One unlucky bonifaco had the mishap to drop one of his legs on the road, without, however, the least pain, or the loss of one drop of blood; the limb was in a very rigid state, and the owner did not feel his loss until on getting off the coach at Wakefield he fell into the street. A doctor (a'ias joiner) was immediately sent for, who fur nished the deficient man with crutches, and ordered him into his surgery until he provided him with a new leg. On his way to the " doctor's" shop he met a person in a light cart vigorously holding up the unlucky, forlorn-looking leg, and which he handed to the bereaved owner, who, after having sundry repairs done to it, placed it on a more secure footing alongside his fleshy ' companion. After the Brewster business was done, and the glorious dinners dispatched, general attention was devoted to the department of liquors, and deep drinking was the order of the day. In a few hours the convey ances were ordered out for the return ; but the ascent of the coaches was not so easy a task ; the natural equi librium was lost, and ladders were therefore obtained, and " sich a Oats' up stairs we never did see." Sonie were literally carried up the ladders and laid on the coaches, and those who were not so far gone had enough to do to keep them from redline. off. On arriving home, three neighbour landlords had lost all power of locomotion, and in order to dismount them a wag sug gested that a plank should be obtained on which to slide them down as heavy luggage. The vehicles ran against each other several times on the return, but no serious accident occurred. SHEERNESS, AUG. 28.—1 t is currently reported in the Dockyard that instructions have been received for five of the advance ships at this port to be brought for ward for commission. The London, 90, has been taken into the fitting basin. The Amazon has very nearly completed rigging, preparatory to being commissioned. The greatest activity prevails in every department of the Dockyard,—Brighton Herald. TRIPOLI. The following is a more detailed account than that we published in our edition of yesterday of the pre tient state of the disturbances in Tripoli and their origin A serious revolt has broken out in the interior of Tripoli, which threatens alarming consequences. Up wards of 6,000 men from Iffreen, liikkeli, and Ray ann, have taken up arms. Their leader is Shah, ex-Minister of the deposed Mahmudi family who have taken refuge in Constantinople, but w ho have recently repaire to Sefax, and thence to the mountains of Geba], where they are spreading the flames of revolution. " The principal cause of the revolution," says letter from Tripoli, "is the heavy taxation which directly and indirectly gravitates upon those tribes. The present F"iha's administration is doubtlessly in clever hands, but it nnght to be managed with less precipitancy, and the taxation be more proportionate to individual income. The zeal for rasing and for warding money to Constantinople is what ocnneions stores to be empty, baggages deficient, and, conse. quently, the marching of troops delayed until ammu nition stores are prepared. Such loss of time may benefit the Miludi mountaineers, who are sufficiently wise so as to avail of it, and take the offensive. Thus may the revolution be further propagated, and the rebels rendered more daring." The principal point of attack by the rebels is the Castle of Iffren, which has been recently built by the Turks, but which is supposed to be too strong for their resources. According to it letter from Tripoli of the 7th of August, which is published by the Malta pipers, the rebels are supported by some neighbouring Powers, and it will increase Lord Aberdeen's confi dence in the good faith of the French in Africa to find that they are not without suspicion of being at the bottom of this revolt : "The Bey of Tunis," says the letter in question, "is desirous of weakening the Ottoman Power on his frontiers, and the French have more particular reasons to provoke disturbances and civil war at Tripoli, and undermine the Ottoman Power. This will greatly facilitate their conquering the territories of Sauf and Tuggurt, under the colour of philanthropic policy, and then claim the thanks of Europe for their having occupied that country. In my last I had foreseen what the French might do, and the events now seem to justify my prophecy, though many at first had tared it with exaggeration." Later accounts state that the Castle of Iffren is suffering from want of water and provisions, and all communication having been cut off with it by the rebels, the Pacha was making all efforts to send rein forcements to the fortress, but without success. The following is the latest information we have on the subject : " TRIPOLI, AUG. 11.—Many more camels have been loaded at the Castle, this morning, with ammu nition stores, and sent into the interior. Two couriers are arrived, and bring the intelligence that the horse men sent by the Pacha to open by force the passage to the Castle of Iffren, have been beaten and re pulsed. It is said that the mountaineers had opposed a more numerous cavalry than the Turkish, which is hardly possible. They not using horses at all—they must have been supplied by the tribes of Naei and Arguma belonging to the regency of Tunis. I understand that the Turkish expedition will march off on the 13th. Gold is rising—the Mahboub in gold is willingly received at nine piasters of Tripoli —a higher price than ordinary. The weekly markets are abandoned—the Arabs are afraid. "AUGUST 12.—The rumour of the loss of Ismail Bey, colonel of the regular cavalry, seems to be con firmed, but it is not ascertained if killed or taken prisoner. The Pacha's son will set out immediately for Bengazy in a man of war. A rumour is in town that some Europeans are among the mountaineers to direct their military► movements. They can be no other people than French, if true. I have sufficiently intimated in my preceding correspondence, that eter nal disquietude is at the bottom of this affair. The French Consul is angry at this fact being published, at the moment of its execution. It is irksome to the French to find people less stupid than their arrogance will let them believe." THE QUEEN'S CONTEMPLATED PROGRESSES.—It is the intention of the Queen to embark on board the Royal yacht Victoria and Albert to-morrow week, the 9th instant, and proceed direct to Scotland. Lord Glenlyon having placed Blair Castle at the disposal of her Ma jesty, she will occupy it for a few weeks, together with the Royal Establishment ; but the precise period of the Queen's stay in the Highlands has not been determined on. This visit of her Majesty to Scotland is to be a pri vate, and not what is called a state one.—Observer. FATAL ACCIDENT.-011 Saturday afternoon, as William Carson, servant to Lieutenant Swinton, of the 4th battalion of the Royal Artillery, was returning from on board the Sir Robert Peel, convict-ship, lying off the Arsenal, Woolwich, he stepped into a wherry at the moment a steamer was passing, the swell from which caused the boat to roll heavily, and losing his balance, ho fell overboard and sunk. The drags were imme diately resorted ta, but nothing whatever of the de ceased has been discovered. The deceased, who bore an excellent character in the garrison, has left a wife and seven children to deplore his untimely end. On Tuesday, as one of the assistant priests in the parish of St. goverin, was proceeding to the church to say mass, he was accosted by a young workman, who, with an open poinard knife in his hand, loaded him with abuse, and appeared determined to stab him. Some passers-by interfered, and persuaded the young man to go away. He returned, however, some minutes after, armed a ith a razor, and this time he was arrested, and taken to a neighbouring post. He there declared that he had had a grudge for a long time against the priest for having prevented him from making his first coin munion, not finding him, as he said, in a fit frame of mind. Slurs' STORES.—The Board of Customs having had under consideration a representation of Messrs. Finnis and Fisher, shipping and provision agents, com plaining of the delay and inconvenience which is ex perienced in consequence of all tobacco and cigars re moved by lighters for exportation as stores, being re quired by the Board's minute of 1843 to be accompanied by a tidewaiter ; and it appearing, from the reports of the practical officers, and the practice of sending a tide waiter In charge of tobacco, removed for shipment as stores, may be dispensed with, except when the quan tity is very large, or when the searcher clearing for goods may have reason to suspect fraud, and provided that the shippers of tobacco as stores from the bonding warehouses, or entitled to drawback, be required to pro duce to the clearing searcher the official document for the same, signed by the tidewaiter, if any be on board the vessel, and if not, by the master or mate, in proof of the receipt of goods on board the vessel, and that the searcher shall not clear the vessel until such receipt upon the official document alluded to be delivered to him, orders have been issued to the officers at the several departments and stations to govern themselves in future accordingly, care being taken that the regulations of the minute of August, 1843, respecting the shipment of stores, be most strictly adhered to. EXTENSIVE SEIZURE OF TOBACCO.--A most im portant seizure was on Saturday made by the Excise on the premises of Mr. F. Ryder, tobacco-manufacturer, of Chiswell-street, Finsbury-square. From information received, Messrs. Adolphus Mark and John Wilde, two indefatigable officers and examiners-general of Excise, proceeded to the above premises, and requested to exa mine the stock of tobacco, which was readily acceded to, and the result was, that they discovered a large quantity of manufactured tobacco, which appeared to them to be adulterated with an article resembling peat. They ac cordingly seized the whole, and pursuing their search, found a large pan, containing a solution of honey, or some other saccharine matter. They then proceeded to an adjoining room, which they minutely examined. It contained a cupboard, which they found to be locked, and on requesting the key of it, they were told that the key had been lost for a considerable time, consequent)) , they were unable to produce it. The officers, not satis fied with this answer, determined that the cupboard should be examined, and an iron bar, being procured, fond about 701 b. of it was forced open, and within was peat, or a similar article to that, m believedto beitsmiut with the tobacco. Upon the officers inquirin g they were informed, that it had been there for some years, when the law allowed tobacco-manufacturers to have such articles in their possession. In the course of their search they also found a vessel containing Vene tian red and a mixture of other ingredients, but during the time the officers were engaged in the inner apart 'wilt, the pan of saccharine matter had entirely disap peared, and was nowhere to be found. By the assistance of Messrs. Spurger and Cowie, the whole stock was de posited in a van, and conveyed to the Excise-office to be adjudicated upon by, her Majesty's Commissioners. Another seizure was made on MAGICIt samel ' e ra.s. three months since.

DEAFNESS CURED! By the most simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound! Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure; many thousand cures have been accomplished by its use, at a tritimg expense, yet certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary t. induce the ;utterer to snake trial, Kings, Lords, and Commons have used it. The Lords of the Treasury have sanctioned its use. Their late Ma jesties, the Duchess of Kent, the most e:rdnent Oculists, Medical Practitioners—with that gigantic balance, the Press—have eulogised Grimstone's celebrated Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grim stone's Eye Snuff," for its e ff icacy in removing all diseases incident to the Eves and Head.

The late Mr. Abernethy, with many others, recommend Grimstone's Eye Snuff, and call it "Man's best Friend," and the "Student's Vade Mecum." . . _ Dr. Andrews also recommends its use as a preventive See his reports in Nov. MI. He states that the tenacious sympathy of the membrane, within the nostrils, with the nervous system, that Grim stome's Eye Snuff, when frequently taken, must be of the greatest benefit to the consumer; and, further, recommends its universal adoption as a preventative. Dr. Thomas, of Hatfield, having witnessed many eases both of headache and ophthalmia, has kindly given his testimony thereof.

F.DWARD PRICE and CO. beg respectful!y to request that all parties wishing to purchase their COMPC MITE CANDLES will ask in the shops simply for " Price's Patei t Candles." Since these have attracted public attention, many Imita tors have made candles, and called them by the name " Composite," used by Edward Price and Co. ; but the process by which the rem 1 Composite Candles aro made, being a patent one ; and E. P. - and Co. granting no licenses, none of these imitation candles are at all ti e same as the real ones. The chief properties of these latter are their burning, without snuffing, snore brilliantly than the best wax, a 1 their affordiag so large an amount of light, that they are cheaper, taking this into account, than the commonest tallow candles, one of them giving the light of three ordinary moulds. They may be had of most of the respectable tallow-chandlers throughout the kingdom, and are supplied to the trade wholesale by Edward Price and Co., Bel mont, Vauxhall ; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street, Clerkenwell.

Hit be inquired why a concern that is so highly eulogised should be in the market, it is rejoined (to use a very ancient and very homely adage), " too many cooks frequently spoil the broth." One competent person, possessing a brain farm, will speedily accomplish all that this announcement has in perspective, and even more tinder a talented direction, The Slate is of excellent quality, of a rich grey.blue colour, and can be had in abundance under a very thin corer. The work is already about 40 yards wide, and is capable of being extended to upwards of ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY YARDS, where a large number of men may be employed most advanta geously, and without the slightest risk. This is an investment af. fording a rare opportunity to any party with moderate capital to . _ REALISE A LARGE FORTUNE. The observations which follow are extracted from a Welsh Paper, and hilly demonstrate the accuracy of the foregoing state ment :—" I have been in Carnarvonshire, to see the Quarry, and my opinion is, that there is something extraordinary in it; it can be made, with a few thousands outlay, THE MOST EXTENSIVE CONCERN OF THIS SOIL THROUGHOUT THE WORLD. The vein of pure slates is ascertained to be no less than 180 yards wide, and at least half a mile in length, without any ob struction, and as deep as any parties may feel inclined to go, wherein there is sufficient quantity of that useful material TO SUPPLY THE WHOLE WORLD FOR CENTURIES TO COME; and with good management the profits would—they could not be less than from 100 to 150 per cent. upon the outlay, after it is put in proper order. It will employ many hundred men to great advantage. Another desirable point connected with this concern is, that the cover of earth on the surface is only two or three yards deep, whereas most of the quarries are under ten or fifteen yards cover. The workshops, waggons, and working utensils are in good repair, as also the road, three miles of which has been made at the expense of nearly 2,0001.; THIS WILL BE INCLUDED IN THE PURCHASE. Another point is worthy of consideration, the work is on the side of the celebrated Carnarvon Hills, and a sufficient declivity affords to the water a cheap conveyance to THE BEAUTIFUL EIGIA LAKE. These splendid waters are full of fish, and comequently afford lots of amusement, and the hill prevents the impossibility of any annoy ance to the works from water. The distance to a capital shipping wharf is only seven miles, and but nine to the intended CHESTER AND HOLYHEAD GREAT RAILWAY. The name of the concern is THE " CEDRYN QUARRY," situate about ten miles from Banger, and the same distance from Conway and Llanrwst, in the centre between the three towns. " It is held under THE RIGHT HON. LORD NEWBOROUGH for an unexpired term of twenty.eight years, which can be extended at any time. " In conclusion, we can only add that the Quarry ought to pro. duce a considerable sum, as it is A SURE FORTUNE FOR ANY SPIRITED PARTY who may be lucky enough to get it." This unpretending statement of facts will convince even those inclined to be sceptical, that it is an investment free from doubt or uncertainty. Full particulars may be had on application to Mr. E. Owen, Auctioneer, Ruthin ; to Mr. George Robins, London ; the Waterloo, Liverpool; the Albion, Manchester: and the White Lion, Bristol. COURT CIRCULAR.

PUBLIC BATHS. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sra,—ln your publication of the 20th current you very obligingly inserted my letter on the -subject or Public Baths. I feel tic, deeply interested in the subject to allow the matter willingly to drop, and therefore I trust you will endeavour to find space fur this communication. I shall be as brief as possible ; but if a word or two at a time can keep the matter before the public eye, and should ultimately be the means of inducing those among the working classes, who have the power to set the affair in a, position to be worked out to some good and practical end, neither your labour nor mine can be considered as thrown away. Since I last wrote to you I have read in the news papers a brief notice of a great public meeting thst has just been hold at Salford, where no less a saws than 11,0001. was subscribed in the room for the pur pose, among other objects, of erecting baths for the working classes of that locality. Here is an example for the citizens of London to imitate. Without any very serious difficulty some twelve or fourteen thousand pounds has been collected in London, to hand down to posterity, in bronze or marble, the name of an illustrious Duke, not very likely to need such a memento in future generations. A much smaller sum than this would enable us to hand down to our posterity a benefit for which they would have good cause to bless the public spirit and enlightenect liberality of those who would assist or encourage the working men of London to attain for themselves so necessary and desirable an object as the erection of cheap and judiciously distributed baths. That the working classes of London are not un mindful of the benefits to be derived from, or averse to the use of the bath, is shown by the numbers who have flocked to the Serpentine during the hot weather, amounting to little short of 300,000. All this too in the face of its numerous inconveniences and dangers, for scarcely a week passes during the bathing season without some fatal accident ; and the exposure is such as must deter numbers from availing themselves of the so-called luxury. The fact too of the Lord Mayor having issued a proclamation against bathing in the river, ought to act as a stimulus to our exer tions to supply proper means and conveniences that this necessary may be within the reach of all. I hinted in my former letter that Government; might do much to assist us in the way of granting sites for the erection of buildings. And, just to view the matter in a practical light, I will take the liberty of pointing out one or two situations that struck me as peculiarly fitted for the purpose. In Orange street, where the well is being sunk for the supply of water to Trafalgar-square and the public offices, is a long vacant space of ground, close by this inexhausti ble supply of the needful element. The two engines that are to be employed to raise the water, could likewise be made available for the purposes of hot or tepid bathing. Again, at the east end of the Serpen tine is a vacant space of ground, somewhat below the level of the river. When I last passed that way, if I remember rightly, it was occupied by a stagnant looking ditch, which under any circumstances it would be desirable to drain. Were a bath erected here it might be open at all how*, the dangers and the exposures of the river being thus completely avoided. I need not lengthen this letter, nor will add one word more, than just to say that a few re marks from your pen, :to give point and effect to my weak attempts, would, I AM sure, be duly appreciated by all who wish well to their kind, and would confer much pleasure upon, Sir, yours very respecfully, WORKIN G MA.N. 77, Harrison-street, Regent-square, Aug. 27. TIIE LATE PITMEN'S STRIKE.—Our accounts from the collieries are satisfactory. The pits are all at work,. and though, from some quarters, we hear of an inten tion to " knock off" again, we have very little appre hension of the renewal of a folly that has cost the pitmen so dear. At Wingate Grange the men turned out for st day, with the view of securing t he em p lo y ment of a delegate named Sutton ; but finding the owners deter mined to resist the demand, they wisely relinquished their purpose, and resumed their labour. We observe, from the neighbouring prints, that in various places, the strangers" have been maltreated by the old pit , men, for the purpose, doubtless, of driving them from their employment, so as to make room for the surplus hands who have been thrown out of engagements sthtehla str n i c k e e b eßut authorsthe prompt n t i h p e t s e assertion proroced eudeitnoi productive e l t a ,o w f will like b e y h r n y lawless device, they will be othfotsleiewsheocorteldsort day'sto their.—Durham Mit.
