Scarborough, July, 1845. AMEETING of the SOCIETY for the EMAN CIPATION' of INDUSTRY was held at Exeter Hall en Tuesday, July 1, ANDREW SPOTTISWOODE, Esq., in the Chair, at which the following resolutions were moved and carried Resolved,—First—That this Society cannot refrain from expressing its surprise and disappointment at the very unsatisfactory resolutions introduced by Lord John Russell in the House of Commons on the 26th of May, for the professed purpose of ameliorating the condition of the working classes of the United Kingdom, and of correcting the alarming evil for which his Lordship did not account, that while " the rich are growing richer, the poor are growing poorer ;"—and this meeting considers that no professions of sympathy for the dis tressed condition of the labouring classes can avail anything, or be satisfactory to the country at large, so long as those classes are compelled to provide for a heavy taxation on articles of consumption in a money artificially made scarce—a regulation which confers an undue and unnatural advantage upon capital over industry. Second,—That it is the opinion of this Society that the state of actual destitution and suffering under which it is acknowledged the labouring classes in this kingdom are now so largely suffering, in the midst of superabundant wealth, and the inexhaustible means of producing that wealth, is not owing to any fault of their own, nor to any express dispensation of Providence, but is attributable to in judicious legislation, of which the most striking example is the per• vicious currency law of 1519—a measure which Sir James Graham truly and emphatically denounced as a " delusion and a fraud."

Fifth,—That if gold were allowed to find its market price in the currency of the country, like all other commodities, and in obedience to the law of suprly and demand, prices in the home trade would rise to a remunerating level, without affecting the prices of our foreign trade, which are now, and always must he, regulated by the market price of gold. That competition would prevent home prices from rising in such a circulating medium beyond the level that indi rect taxation justified ; a level below which it is as unjust to the pro ducer as it is dangerous to the public creditor to reduce tham.—That the Government money (or Exchequer-bills) now issued for taxes in a shape and in arrhamts exclusively useful to the monied class, should be issued in amounts convenient for all classes—namely, in notes of one. pound and upwards ; that these notes being necessarily confined within the amount of annual taxation, would be founded on and re present that property which the Government annually draws from the people in taxes, and would form the legal-tender money of the nation.—That labour would then receive its fair and reasonable re ward, while the commerce and industry of the country would be freed from their present unnecessary and injurious dependence upon foreign exchanges.

By order of the Provisional Committee, 62, King William-street, City, July 26, 1845. ED. AIME, Sec. Sixth,—That this S. ,, ziety views with horror the monstrous doc trine attributed to Sir Robert Peel in the debate on Mr. Villiers's motion upon the 10th of June, that the increasing impoverishment of the industrious classes is without remedy ; that "great wealth being found side by side with great poverty" is "inseparable from civilisation, and that civilisation in itself increases the tendency in 4 country towards them,"—a doctrine which would consign a large portion of our countrymen to irremediable poverty. That this Society is prepared to prove before a Committee of either House of Parliament that such a social anomaly is mainly attributable to mis taken views of the nature and uses of money, and of the laws governing the distribution of wealth ; and they cannot but ascribe it to the deepest and most deplorable delusion, that in the recent dis cussions on the subject of the Corn-laws and Banking, the National Debt and Taxation, which form essential elements in both questions, have been studi,usly excluded.

HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP X. LONDON AND YORX LINE. The members of this group—Viscount Courtenay (Chairman), Mr. Darby, Mr. P. Scrope, and Mr. B. Wall —resumed this morn. ing at the customary hour, and proceeded with the discussion and insertion of such clauses in the London and York Bill as had been conceded by its promoters. The formal business having concluded, the question was put that the Bill, as amended, should be reported to the House, which being carried in the affirmative, Mr. atm, Q.C., proceeded to call witnesses on behalf of the Sheffield and Lincolnshire line from Sheffield to Gainsborough, stating his intention of deferring any observations on the case till after all his evidence had been adduced. On this Mr. B. WALL observed that perhaps the Learned Counsel would lose all opportunity of addressing the Committee at all if he did not take care to speak when he could. Mr. TALBOT, Q.C., intimated his intention of opposing the scheme on behalf of several landholders, including the Earl of Fitzwilliam and the Hon. Mr. Simpson. Mr. J. Parker, M.P. for Sheffield, examined by Mr. BAINE, Q.C., deposed to having succeeded Lord Wharncliffe as chairman .f the Sheffield and Manchester Railway, the whole of which is now open, except a tunnel, which will be completed for public use in the course of two months. The witness thought the line be tween Sheffield and Lincoln a great desideratum, indeed, that and the line he represented weuld be " perfect Siamese twins." Mr. Granville Vernon, examined by Mr. BAINES, Q.C.—ls Member for East Retford, whose inhabitants, to the num. ber of 4,500, are universally impressed with the importance of the project under consideration. The districts are wholly agricultural and stand in need of a speedier means of accommodation. Mr. Elliston, agent to the Duke of Norfolk, corroborated the evidence of this and the preceding witness, and the Committee at half-past four adjourned till to.morrow at noon. 5T2121/23110T0 ORDENS CORIMITTZZI.

BRUSSELS, JULY 24.—The journals have announced the re turn of.:the Jesuists who were invited to the Republic of Guatamala to direct a college, but have not been able to fulfil the mission which was confided to them. When the vessels, on board of which they were, approached the coast, they were informed of the decree against them. After some discussion they were allowed to land on the 4th of March on the coast of the Belgian colony, to take some repose after their voyage. They were soon attacked by the prevailing disorder, and one of them sunk under it. The others quitted St. Thomas on the 18th of April with Father Genon, who had resided there a year-and-a. half, and they arrived at Antwerp on the 18th of this month. Father Genon much wished to remain among the Caribees, but Carrera let him know that he would send thither a native priest. The state of the Belgian colony is most wretched. There are still about 200 colonists among them. There are 85 children who are become orphans. JULY 25.—M. Van de Weyer is not expected at Brussels till next week. M. Northomb has returned from his visit to Flanders, and im. medihtely set out for Hennant. The Society of Merchants and Manufacturers of Antwerp have just addressed a petition to the King, praying that the corn.law may not be promulgated. The petition declares that such a law can never be advisable in Belgium, because the country does not produce sufficient corn for the consumption, and that a worse mo ment for introducing it could not have been chosen ; that though immense quantities have been imported for consumption. the price of corn has remained very high, which proves that there was a real and urgent want, and that Belgium would have been subject to severe trial, and even danger, if the law had been put in force; lastly, that as this state of things is always imminent, it would be very imprudent to maintain a regulation attended with so many dangers.

EFFECT OF NEW RAILWAYS ON THE PRICE .OF COALS IN Lownow.—Mr. Mahon, in giving his evidence before the Committee on the Cambridge and Lincoln line of railway, stated that he had had the management of coal-mines in Derbyshire for twenty years past; that the coal-fields of Clay Cross, Wingerfield, and Stayley, were capable of un limited supply, and he believed that the Clay Cross and Stayley coals were quite equal to the Durham. By the pro posed new li nes o f ra il way these coals could be delivered in London at 141. 10d. per ton ; Erewash coals as low as 10s. 6d.; while the Wingerworth, which were not so good in quality could not be delivered in London under 14s. 6d. per ton.

From the evidence it appeared that the deceased had been residing in Bedford during the last eight months, and had lodged at the house of Mr. Colson, in the High street. Ile was out walking with his wife and daughter on Monday evening, and he then appeared in good health. In the course of the evening Mr. Colson heard something fall on the floor very heavily in the room above the shop, occupied by the deceased. He immediately ran up stairs, and, on entering the room, found Mr. Tomling on his back, in a state of insensibility, and alone. Mr. Colson raised him and untied his neckcloth, and called for assistance. The deceased never rallied again. Mr. Wuodridge, surgeon, soon afterwards came, but the deceased was then quite dead. It was the opinion of the gen- (Provisionally Registered.) THE VALE OF NEATH RAlLWAY connecting Swansea and Neath with the town of Merth) r Tydvil.

This line is the natural result of opening out, by an important main trunk like the South Wales Railway, a country rich in minerals, with a large and rapidly increasing population, both of which have hitherto been but imperfectly supplied with the means of transit. The numerous mines, collieries, iron, copper, tin plate, fire brick, chemical, and other works, already in operation and in course of being opened, in the interior of South Wales, especially in the country through which this line will pass, and which are now being exten sively multiplied there, seek a more speedy and ready access to the main line than existing modes supply, and hence the necessity for' affording to the important valley between Neath and Merthyr Tydvil the most perfect means of communication, not only with the South Wales Railway, but with the ports of Neath and Swansea, the natural and legitimate outlets for the produce of the valley ; whence the supply of flour and other provisions from Ireland can be cheaply and expeditiously conveyed into the heart of the country. The proposed line will commence at Neath by a junction with the South Wales Railway, will continue up the Valley to near Pont Walby, thence to Merthyr Tydvil, passing within a short distance of the extensive iron works lying in that district. The advantage •f the natural fall of country, being from Merthyr to Neath, calls forth a strong opinion in the following extract from the report of the Board of Trade on Railways in South Wales : "By the proposed line (the South Wales) the principal towns and commercial emporiums, which are situated along the coast at the bottom of the valleys, are placed upon the main line, to which the traffic from the interior will descend—a consideration which is very important when we recollect that a great part of this traffic will consist of heavy minerals." The Vale of Neath intersects the great coal and iron fields of South Wales, and possesses anthracite, as well as bituminous coal, in great abundance. In addition to the collieries and iron works, there are also tin works adjoining the proposed line, and valuable timber, to the extent of 4,000 acres. It is unnecessary to give a detailed estimate of the probable re venue that will arise from the Vale of Neath Railway ; it is sufficient to say, that, in the districts between and through which it will pats, the population numbers above 80,000, depending chiefly on the sup plies now transmitted to the interior through Swansea and Neath ; that the intercourse between the above towns is such as to bear out a most favourable estimate of passenger traffic; and that 200,000 tons of coal, exclusive of other minerals, are exported annually from the Vale of Neath, finding a ready market in France, Ireland, Somerset shire, Devonshire, Cornwall, London, and other places. From these mere outlines it is evident that the increased facility of transit which this Railway will afford over the present modes of conveyance, con nected as it will be with Swansea and lii iton Ferry (the port of Neath) by means of the South Wales Railway, will produce a cor responding increase of Production and traffic. Under the latter head, as regards passengers, may be taken into consideration the large numbers that resort to Swansea from the interior for sea bathing, and the strikingly picturesque and richly varied beauty of the Vale of Neath, with its famed waterfalls, will be a source of never-failing attraction to tourists and parties of pleasure. The most favourable opinion is entertained of the Vale of Neath Railway by almost all the landed proprietors along the line, the majority of whom are members of the Provisional Committee, the lessees of collieries, and parties engaged in shipping ; and its im portance as a profitable investment may be judged from the fact that the Neath Canal, which now traverses only half the distance of the proposed line, and affords, even to that limited extent, but imperfect accommodation, has for many years paid a large dividend to the proprietary, and the original 100/. shares are now marketable at 340 d. Prospectuses may be had, and applications for shares may be ad dressed, in the form annexed, to the Secretary, at the offices of the Company, 440, West Strand, London, and to the Solicitors in Lon don, or ifteth. In the allotment of the shares of the Company, a preference will be given to parties locally interested, and to the Proprietors of Shares in the South Wales Railway Company. The usual power will be taken by the Act, to allow interest at 4 per cent. per annum on the amount of subscriptions paid up ; and no subscriber will be answerable for more than the amount of his de posit of 1/. 10s. per share, until the Act Is obtained, and then not be yond the amount of his subscription.

NORTHERN LUNATIC ASYLUM, London, Colonade Hotel, Charles-street, St. James's-square. sth June, 1845. At a Meeting held on the 20th ultimo, of the Committee appointed by the County of Inverness, for promoting the erection at Inverness of a Lunatic Asylum, for Pauper and other Lunatics of the Northern Counties of Scotland ; We, the undersigned, William H. Colquhoun, Advocate, Sheriff t'ubstitute of Inverness-shire, and John Mackenzie, banker in In verness, were appointed a Deputation to solicit Subscriptions in Lon don, in aid of the proposed Asylum. And being now arrived here, in pursuance of our mission, we beg leave to send you some particulars regarding the proposed establish ment, in the hope that you will be pleased to give it the benefit of your support by contribution or otherwise, Under that impression, we will do ourselves the honour of waiting on you, in a day or two, to learn your determination ; bet should we he so unfortunate as not to have an opportunity of seeing you personally, we hope you will be kind enough to favour us with your views, to the above address, on or before 12th instant. The primary object of the projected Institution is the accommoda tion of pauper lunatics, and of other lunatics in poor circumstances, In the northern counties of Scotland, which comprise an extent of surface equal to one-third of all Scotland, and have a population of about 250,000. Yet, with the exception of a very few cells attached to the infirmary at Inverness, there is not any provision made in all this wide district for the secure confinement or medical treatment of the insane, the poorer classes of whom, amounting in number to up wards of 700, are left in a state of wretched destitution, either burden some to their poor relatives and paralysing their industry, or roam • ing about the country in search of a precarious subsistence—pitiable ,et account of their calamity, often alarming and dangerous to the community from their furious conduct, at once the disgrace, the in ',try, end the terror of the country. To abate this crying evil, this heart-sickening and frightful neglect and destitution, It is proposed to erect at Inverness, as the most central and convenient point, an Asylum for pauper lunatics, and for other lunatics in poor circumstances belonging to the northern coun ties. As a subsidiary and ulterior measure, provision will be made for the addition afterwards of apartments for richer classes of patients. The funds for this purpose can only be obtained by the voluntary contributions of such benevolent persons as are interested in the wel fare of the wide district of country referred to, or in the mitigation of human suffering wenerally. It is estimated that at least B,oo'l. will be required to erect the necessary buildings, and to form a fund for the permanent endowment of the Institution. Already considerable progress has been made, principally in the North of Scotland, in pro curing subscriptions; and hopes are confidently entertained that with Metropolitan, and perhaps Colonial .aid, the necessary funds will be obtained to secure this invaluable boon for the poor, and re move one of the worst blots on the humanity of our countrymen. The rules for the government of the Institution will he of course de termined at a general meeting of the Subscribers, and will be sub mitted to them on principles fitted to secure a liberal and efficient system of management, comprehending the chief official funtionaries of the district, but giving to the Subscribers due and ample powers of control and recommendation. We are, respectfully, Your very obedient servants, (Signed) W. H. COLQUHOUN. JOHN MACKENZIE.

FACT.—MECHI'S MAGIC STROP is known to have sharpened razors when all other means had failed. Those who doubt it can ask their friends, and if they pur chase and are not satisfied may have their money returned. They ••re cheap, 2s. 6d., 3s. 6d., 4s. 6d., and the very largo size ss. 6d. and 6s. 6d. each. The Magic Paste is 6d. and Is. per cake. Upwards of 150,000 strops and 1,500,000 of paste have been sold in the last six years, which is a pretty good proof of their excellence. There is a little fact, however, to notice which may prevent much disappoint ment and a good deal of pain. Sundry unprincipled persons, de sirous of sharing Mechi's good fortune without being entitled to it, have made tip thousands of common strops, calling them " The Magic Strop," " The Double Magic Strop," " The Real Magic Strop," and so on, taking care not to put on "Mechi's Magic Strop." Now by noticing the name Mechi on each strop, with the address, No. 4, Leadenhall-street, London, you are sure to be right, as the law will not allow them to put Mechi's name on the spurious sort. Thee. imitation strops are manufactured in large quantities at Sheffield, and shipped, to a considerable extent, to America and the colonies ; and it is to be feared that in too many instances the buyers are not aware they are deceived, although they find them of no use in sharp ening, which is a considerable injury to Mechi's goad name. Most respectable perfumers throughout the United Kl , gdom will supply the genuine strop as cheap as if purchased at Mechi's. His manu factory is at 4, Leadenhall-street, London, where may be had his fa mous bagatelle tables, dressing cases, papier-mache goods ; also his approved razors, penknives, and table cutlery. Catalogues may be had gratis. .ORD ELDON'S APERIENT PILLS, for hahiteal Costiveness, have been the means of positive cure to many thousands ; they are peculiarly adapted for persons of both sexes who are of sedentary habits ; they are patronised by the nobility and gentry, and are the mildest and ,most efficacious me.dl - extant.

The report of Mr. F. Newman Rogers, the Cornrchk - ;oner ap pointed to Inquire into certain allegations contaiuod in the.' petition of Eliza Price of ill-treatment towards her on the part .Of two constables of the county of Stafford, and into the manner in which the magisterial business of the Kingswinford district in Stant d shire has been conducted, has been presented to both Houses Os' Parliament by command of ber Majesty. The report fully bears out the statements already before the public as to the improper conduct of magisterial business in that district, and is accompanied by a letter from Sir James Graham to the Earl of Talbot, the Lord- I ieutenant of the county, of which the following is a copy . :-- " Whitehall, 30th June, 1845. "My Lord,—l think it necessary to bring under your Lord. ship's notice several matters affecting the administration of justice in the county of Stafford, which have come to lay knowlezdge in consequence of the inquiry recently instituted by me into the Can plaint of Eliza Price. I have the honour to inclose a copy of Mr. Newman Rogers's report upon this subject, to which I beg to direct your immediate and particular attention. " It appears that, in the Selsdon division of the county, two petty sessions are periodically held for the same district within a short distance of each other ; the one at Wordsley, and the other at the Cross Inn, Kingswinford. This concurrent jurisdiction of two benches of magistrates within the same division has led to conflicting judgments, collision, and disputes between the magis. trates concerning their clerks' fees. It is obviously important at once to put a stop to such proceedings; and I beg, therefore, to impress upon your Lordship how essential it is that immediate steps should be taken to separate, into two distinct divisions, the populous district which is now made a subject of contention between two benches of magistrates. Until this can be legally effected, I would suggest to your Lordship that the magistrates should be en. jollied to act, by agreement, within certain parishes, or to adopt by anticipation the division, which I learn is about to be proposed by a committee of magistrates. " I regret to find that it has long been a practice in the county to detain prisoners during the night chained at the stations, and even at public-houses and beer shops. It would appear, moreover, that, in subjecting persons taken into custody to this mode of de tention, no reference has been made either to the nature of the offences with which they wire charged, or to their condition, or the probability of their attempting to escape. I sin informed that this practice, though it has been recently abandoned by the con. stables of the police force, is still resorted to by other constables; and I would particularly recommend that, through your Lord ship's suggestions to the magistrates in quarter sessions, such directions may be given to the parish constables as will at 3 nee put an end to this practice, which I consider lode. fensible. " It is, at the same time, represented to me that there is a great want of proper places of temporary confinement, and there is good reason to believe that such irregular proceedings may, in many cases, have arisen from the neglect to provide convenient lock.up houses; I beg, therefore, to call your Lordship's attention, and, through your Lordships the attention of the county magistrates, to the 12th section of the 3d and 4th of Victoria, c. 88, which empowers the magistrates to erect suitable buildings for this purpose. " Two other irregularities appear in the course of the inquiry, which do not seem to be confined to the particular case out of whicb it arose. I allude to the performance of judicial duties (not mere Ministerial acts) by magistrates in their private dwellings —a practice which I consider open to serious objections, and which I am happy to learn has for some time been decreasing among county magistrates. The grant of warrants also in trivial cases, where the attendance of the parties against whom a complaint is made might be secured by summons, is a course which may unnecessarily entail upon innocent persons the degradation of criminal custody, and frequently a useless loss of their time. lam afraid that the result of this examination proves the existence of dissensions among the magistrates acting in this district of the county of Stafford, which are at variance with the public interest, and in consistent with the due administration of justice. " In reference to the particular case complained of, I have learnt with much surprise that Mr. Briscoe, whose conduct the petition of Eliza Price brought specially under the notice of Par liament, has bean in the habit of executing blank warrants of commitment, and of sending them a distance of seven miles to his clerk, by a constable, with instructions which it is not clear were always in writing, to fill them up. lam sure it is unnecessary to call your Lordship's attention to the serious abuses which such an irregular proceeding might produce, or to the injurious effect which so great an informality must have upon theadministration of justice. " There is one other point to which it is necessary I should advert ; I am of opinion, that part of the irregularity which this case has disclosed, would not have arisen, had the clerks to the magi'. .rates acting at the Cross Inn Petty Sessions been fully qualified persons, and I trust that your Lordship will deem it right to impress apon the magistrates how necessary it is that they should be assisted in the important business which belongs to the Petty Sessions, by clerks who possess every qualification necessary to fit them far the discharge of such duties. " After full inquiry and consideration, I regret that I cannot avoid expressing my disapproval of Mr. Briscoe's conduct. Ido not attribute to him the improper treatment of Eliza Price, whilein the custody of the constable. But I have already expressed to him my opinion that it aas a harsh proceeding to issue a warrant fur her apprehension on a charge of common assault, instead of a summons to appear at the petty sessions. His proxedings, more over, as a magistrate, are shown to have been marked by great irregularity. And I request that your Lordship will impress strongly upon him the necessity of exercising great caution in his future magisterial duties, of strictly adhering to those legal forms of proceeding which are important to the proper administration of justice, and of preventing, by a more vigilant superintendence of those who may act under his orders, any unnecessary harshness in the execution of the law. " I have the honour to be, my Lord, your Lordship's very faith. ful servant, "J. R. G. GRAHAM. " Earl Talbot, Lord-Lieutenant of the county of Stafford, &c &c. " DISTRICT MILITARY PRISONS. The following general orders have been issued to the Royal Regiment of Artillery : 1. It having been officially intimated that the necessary arrange. ments have been made for the reception of prisoners at the District Military prisons at Fort Clarence, South Sea Castle, and the Provost Prisons at Devonport and Athlone, the Master directs that, in con formity to the practice laid down for the army, all prisoners of the Royal Artillery, sentenced by court martial to periods of imprison. went above twenty. eight days, be committed to the prisons este- Wished within their respective districts, but at those stations where garrison or barrack cells, of approved construction, have been erected, and duly certified as fit for the confinement of prisoners, it is left to the decision of commanding officers to confine prisoners in such cells, if under sentence for any period not exceeding twenty eight days. In all cases when the term awarded is beyond that period, they are to be committed to the prisons of the military district to which they belong. 2. It has bees arranged that soldiers of the Royal Artillery sent, under sentence of court martial, to undergo their imprisonment in the several buildings set apart by the Sceretary.at- War, as district military prisons, or as provost prisons, agreeably to the 28th sec tion of the Mutiny Act, are, for the periods they are actually in confinement, and subsisted in such prisons, to be distinguished in the troop or company pay list as being in such prisons ; but no charge whatever, during their confinement therein, is to be In. eluded in the pay list, as the cost of the subsistence of these men will be provided in the army estimates as a part of the public ex penditureef the district military prisons. 3. In all cases, however, of soldiers of the Ordnance corps being sent to undergo the sentences of courts.martial in the civil prisons, or confined for short periods in the garrison or barrack-cells established for the purpose, their subsistence not exceeding 6d. a day will be drawn, as heretofore, in the troop or company's pay-lists. 4. The Secretary -at-War has stated, in reply to the Master- General and boards of inquiry on the subject, that the services of soldiers arc not forfeited when sentenced to imprisonment, and forfeiture of pay, by order of the commanding °nicer, for periods not exceeding seven days, under the provisions of 52d Article of War. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Slit, —I was much pleased to read in your leading article on Thursday a well-merited eulogium on the gallant soldiers who paved the way for Waterloo, by driving the French out of Spain. I ask, had those men not fought and bled at the various battles in Spain (almost too numerous to mention), who can say that the battle of Waterloo would ever have taken place? Would not Napoleon have had the whole of Spain, of Portugal, and of nearly the whole continent of Europe, under him in the memorable year 1815? Where then would have been our glory, our wealth—nay, what might have been our country—perhaps a dependency of France—when ail the English people were killed in defend ing their country and homes from the tyrant? And fin.- sooth, because the brave English, Scotch, and Irish (for whatever the Tories may say about the Irish and rebellion, they never can say ought against their love of common coun try and patriotism when the foe is before them)—well, be cause there were 50,000 men killed in jive years, instead o f 50,000 killed in one day, we are to have nothing to comme morate our victories but the remembrance of our fathers' wounds? How is it then that the Duke of Wellington was made (I think) Marquis of Wellington before the, battle of Waterloo? For, according to his own showing, the soldiers (i. e. the privates) are to have nothing, because they did not do their work in one day. And moreover, the valiant Marquis of Londonderry, no doubt recollecting how he had got his decorations, his various ribbons and colonelcies, must needs tell them that petitioning the Legislature is not the proper way for redrew I Very likely the Marquis may be quite correct. It may not be the speediest way, but most certainly it is the proper way, for the soldiers of this country who have not votes m the House of Lords. I have written these few lines from feeling myself the injustice of the proceedings. B e i ng th e son o f one w h o served through the whole of the Spanish campaigns, and was killed at Toulouse ; and because he fell in the cause of his country two years before the battle of Waterloo, I am not to have a medal, when other men who were at Waterloo, and never in action before, have one. This is injustice. Trust ing you will always speak out through your excellent paper on behalf of the poor, I am, Sir, your obli ge d servant, Liverpool, July 26, 1845. T. 'UNREAL OF THE LATE LORD CANTERBURY.- The mortal remains of the late Right Honourable Charles Viscount Canterbury were removed yesterday morning from the resi dence of his son, the Hon.

APPROACHING CHANGE OF QUARTERS AMONGST THE HOUSEnorn Taoors.—On the Ist of September the Ist bat talion of Coldstream Guards remove from Winchester to Portman barracks, the 2d battalion from Windsor to the Tower, the Ist bat talion of Fusilier Guards f rom St. George's Barracks to St. John's t l ti V e oot s l ; t h battalion e 2 d battalion Grenadier m Wellingtonr intocheNsVterel.: lington Barracks, the 2d battalion from the Tower to Windsor, and the 3d battalion from Portman. street to St. George's Barracks. There exists tit St. Claude (Jura) a rock, about fifty metres in height, which forms a very picturesque object. It has acquired the name of the Saut de la Pucelle, from a circum stance which occurred towards the end of the sixteenth century, when a young girl accused of witchcraft was allowed to establish her guilt or innocense by the result of a leap from its summit; and it so happened that, her clothes having become inflated, she was borne as by a balloon, and came unhurt to the ground. A few days since a pedlar, in a prosperous way of business, but whose head had become rather the worse for the copious libations in which he had been indulging, ascended to the summit, and, exclaiming to some persons near, " You shall now see how I am going to settle my affairs," leaped off, and, as might have been expected, wus picked up a corpse. INSPECTION OP THE SECOND REGIMENT OF LIFE GUARDS.—The half-yearly inspection of this regiment, under the command of Colonel Reid, took place on Saturday last, in Windsor Great Park, by Major-General the Hon.
