On Friday - the — adjourned meeting :of schoolmasters was held at the Green Man, George,street,WestmirTter. Mr. Jones.in the Chair. The SECRETARY (Mr. AroNb_tv):re'ad the minutes of the last meeting. The CHAIRMAN stated that since the last meeting he had had conversations with influential persons connected with the profession, and he had received from all the greatest' encouragement for the proposed Association. The Committee had considerable difficulty in framing a set of rules for the government of the Society, but he had no doubt that in the course of a few days ihey would be able to lay before the general body of teachers a plan which would embrace the interest of all, and pre sent no obstacle to the scruples of any. Mr. BARRE said that since th e l as t meet i ng he ii ad had conversations with several persons interested in the welfare of the profession. Amongst others with clergy men of high dignity in the Church, who stated to 'him that they were surprised that such an associatiOn'was comnierieed now for the first time. lie moTed.tkat the Committee be allowed the interval.to Weduesday to pieiiire a report upon which the Society shalt bet founded. Mr. PARTON seconded the resolution, and said al the object of. the projected Association was so comprehensive and benevolent, that he could have no doubt the Com mittee would -be supported by a large majority of the profession. It was well known to all pesent, that some of the most deserving persons, having tilled the import ant stations of teachrs to hundreds of the children of working classes, or presided over the education of young nobility, have passed the remainder of their lives in ex -trome indigence and neglect. The resolution was agreed to unanimously. On the motion . of Mr. 6 CEATON, seconded by Mr. LONG, a vote of thanks was unanimously passed to the Chairman for his judicious conduct in the chair. The meeting then adjourned till Wednesday next.. . _ HOSPITAL •for - CONSUMPTION and DISEASES of the CHEST. Yesterday morning a sermon on behalf of this excel lent charity was preached at the Church of St. Nicholas, North Brixton ; b e y the Lord Bishop of. Winchester. The Learned Prelate, in the course of a very eloquent address, adverted to the printed address circulated' among the congregation, as follows :--- • - " , There is scarcely a disease of any - seierity'which does not find ready admission into the war d s of our general hospitals, and many complaints of comparatively rar4 occurrence and trifling imp or t ance h ave i nst i tut i ons 'specially devoted to their treatment ; but consumption, the most frequent 'and destructive malady in existence, finds' the doors of all our hospitals closed against it. " The plea on which the consumptive patient is re fused admission into other institutions is, the lingering nature and almost 'certain fatality 'of his disease. But these very peculiarities give him the strongest claim on our sympathy; for when the poor man falls ill, the' very sources of his subsiStence are dried up ; acute diseases impoverish and embarrass him, but chronic diseases ruin him ;•those who are dependent upon his exertions share his destitution, and are prevented from earning their own livelihood by the necessity of ministering to his wants. "To reovide him with an asylum, to surround him with the comforts of which he stands so much in need, to ensure him relief froth the sufferings entailed by his disease, to afford him spiritual consolation, at a period when-the mind is perhaps best adapted to receive with benefit the divine truths of religion, and to enable those who depend upon him to earn their own subsistenq, are the great objects proposed to be accomplished by this; new hospital. " The following statement will show the magnitude of the evil which this institution was formed to remedy.' Of the 60,000 deaths which occur every year in England and' Wales from slow and lingering diseases, about 36,000 are probably due to pulmonary consumption. One-ninth, therefore, of the total mortality at alines, and more than one-fifth of the mortality of adults is due to this cause ; and as the duration of the disease, taking one case with another, is about two years,it follows that about 72,000 persons are constantly suffering from con sumption, being at the rate of four persons in every-thou sand of all ages, and eight in every thousand adults. "Again, of the 45,000 deaths occurring every ye:sr in the- metropolis, about 5,600, or one-eighth of th 4 total mortality of the metropolis at all ages, and little less than one-fifth of the mortality of adults, arises from this fatal disease : and upwards of 11,000 persons, being about one in 170 of the entire population, of the me tropolis, and more than one per cent, of - the adults, are constantly wasting away under the attacks of this lingering malady. " Of these 10,000 cases, about three-fourths occur in males, of whom a large proportion are working men, unable to provide for themselves and families, systema tically excluded from our general hospitals, and uniting in their own persons every conceivable claim to sympathy and assistance. It may be well to add that many —very many—of these poor sufferers are the acknowledged victims of unventilated workshops, ill -constructed dwell ings, vitiated atmosphere, long hours of work, and the want of open places for exercise and recreation ; so that they may fairly claim from their richer brethren not sympathy only, but compensation for the injury which their neglect has inflicted upon them. " To all who have felt the power of the destroyer, or who have reason to fear his attack—and what family throughout the country has not had sad experience of his presence?—an earnest appeal is now made, in the full assurance that those who give their support to this institution will combine the work of mercy with that of justice, and aid in furthering as many important objects as are found united in any charitable institution." The sum collected at the conclusion of the; sermon amounted to 62/. ss. 7d. Another collection for the same laudable purpose was made in the afternoon after an impressive sermon preached by the RvV. Townsend Duffield. No. 16,162. LONDON, MONDAY EVENING S N7 JUNE 3, 1844.

TO THE FARMERS OF WILTS. (From the Wiltshire Independent.) I have read in the Wiltshire Independent, and have heard from other quarters, such instances of gross oppression and flagrant injustice towards agricul tural labourers, made use of by their employers to compel them to sign petitions in favour of the corn laws,. and I feel so forcibly, not only the iniquity, but also the fully and impolicy of such conduct, that I cannot refrain from addressing these lines to you on the subject. Well-authenticated cases and. the names of parties are in my possession, but I do not by any means wish to expose them. It is very possible, indeed, if these practices are persevered in, that it may become nmessary, hereafter, to do so. At present, I will ,rely argue the matter abstractedly, and endeavour to put before you such reasons, as I think, ought to weigh with you to ab4ain from anything • like corn . 1: The - labourer-is' a fr - ee-man, and has .its good a right to his opinion on the subject, as any one of you. • He is, in no respect, bound -to follow your opinions, and to act under your directions in anything, except in matters connected with his ser vice. Signing a petition with reference to the corn law cannot in any way be so considered. 2. The labourer has an immediate and direct in terest in the matter. Aly belief, indeed, is, that the repeal of the corn• laws would be as beneficial to you as to him ; but his interest is more evident. He is a consumer ;. you are both consumers and producers. His interest in having what he consumes abundant and cheap is palpable, and he knows it. Why should he not be at liberty to express his opinion Stillmore, why should he be called upon to express a contrary one ? p. ASTERN COUNTIES RAILWAY. COLCHESTER AND CAMBRIDGE LINES.

There is a capital mansion-house at Trengwainton, encircled by parklike grounds, with most commodious offices, stabling, Scz.; the whole in substantial repair, and fit for the immediate occupation of a respectable family. The mansion-house and terrace-walk com mand the finest views of Mounts Bay, and the ponds and streams abound with fish, whilst the covers afford some of the best woodcock shooting in the county. The warrens abound with rabbits, and hounds are kept in the immediate neighbourhood. The conditions of sale may be inspected at the Offices of Messrs.

ELIGIOUS TRUSTS and DISSENTERS' JILL CHAPELS BILL.—The Committee associated for opposing the above Bill have the satisfaction to announcethat on THURSDAY and FRIDAY Evenings THREE HUNDRED and FORTY-TWO Petitions against the Bill were presented to the House of Commons, while only EIGHTEEN were presented In its favour. They would still urge upon the opponents of that measure that not a moment should be lost in preparing and sending up their parochial and congre gational petitions, accompanied with earnest representations, to their Members, not to sanction an overthrow of the established law, 'ln order to patronise and endow the promulgation of unscriptural and dangerous errors. The examples of the Bishops of London and Exeter having been followed by some of the most influential of the Clergy In their respective parishes, numerous petitions are being pre pared, and public meetings held, with a view to the defeat of this unjust and unprecedented measure. The friends of the Church of England, also, are liberally coming forward to support this opposi tion, by contributing towards the supply of the funds necessary, it being a cause in which they feel that no political or party interests are involved, but the sacredness of charities, the rights of property, and the very pillars of the orthodox faith. The Committee continue to meet daily at Exeter Hall, and invite general co-operation from all parts of the country, intelligence of pro ceedings adopted, 'introductions from country constituents to their representatives, and any suggestions that may promote success. all e n C e o c i e nm ssar it y tee in . f"ra-a :tioTnhMe (Signed) Captain VERNON HARCOURT, R .

It is your manifest interest to promote and en courage morality in your labourers, and especially to discourage falsehood and lying; but when you urge a man to put hi 3 name to the expression of an opinion, contrary to that he really entertains, you urge him to commit a deliberate falsehood in the most formal manner. How can you, after this, blame him, if on any other occasion he lies to you ? 4. I would ask what you gain by this? Nothing but the expression of an opinion, which you know to be insincere, and which your employers and laud• lords, if you are candid with them, also know to be so. 5. Again, I would ask, what you lose by this ? The respect and good opinion of your men. How can a man respect one who, for his own purposes, urges or compels another to tell a deliberate lie ? 6. But this is not all you lose. The men, knowing, as they all, I believe, well know, that the corn-laws are most injurious to them, being so called upon, naturally suspect that you must have some view or object detrimental to them; or, at the rery least, that you are indifferent about their wel fare. I ask every farmer in Wilts, and in the South of England, whether there exists between him and his labourers such cordiality as could neutralise that suspicion ; or prevent its being highly dangerous ? But it may be said that you have a right to employ whom you like, and to give what wages you like ; to dis miss those who do not agree with you about the corn iaws, or to give to them lower wages. True—the right you have ; whether it be just or proper to exercise it, is another question. And, on the other hand, the men have a clear right to stick to their own opinion, and if they prefer doing so to accepting the wages of falsehood and iniquity, to take your dis missal. Would the boards of guardians refuse to admit them, with their families, into the workhouses, ')ecause they had refused to sign their names to a lie ? I throw out these things for your consideration, and I think they are deserving your attention. I wish to say nothing to irritate or annoy. I have so desire to expose the names of any who have acted, as I think, so unjustifiably. But I will do what I can to save the labouring men from oppression and injustice; and I care not whom I may offend, or what offence I may give, if it is necessary to do so for that purpose. To conclude: Be just and fair—Do unto others as you would that others should do to you. Keep your opinions and act upon them, if you please ; but let your labourers keep theirs. You probably know my ,pinion, that your landlords have no right to coerce You; in the same way, you have no right to coerce our labourers. Act on these principles, which are the principles of justice and truth, and take my word for it that you will never have cause to repent of so doing. RADNOR. Grosvenor-street, May 28, 1844.

Our tame, like a bmner, is seen to expand, Proclaiming to thousands " the Boast of the Land." In beautiful costumes we've" long borne the belle," For none can such elegant garments excel ; In cut and in fashion, in clot. aid in make, This clothing has beauties which few can partake; And firm will thy excellent workmanship stand, When garments are bought at " the Boast of the Land." 'Tis this that has given to MOSES and SON, Successes which no other bou,es have won. 'Tis that hat gain'd them that matchless renow Which sounds like a trumpet in country and town.

The press has not been for gotten, and due care has been taken to give its repre sentatives full opportunity for accurately describing the events of each day. All who have witnessed the plans admit that they are the most complete in the kingdom. Gambling of every description, except as connected with the races, tables, thimble tables, &c., will be rigidly suppressed, and for this purpose an unusually numerous body of the police will be in attendance. In the Grand Stand the exclusion 4,f the play table s has left more space for the accommodation of the fashionable frequenters of this noble structure, and refreshment rooms, select and otherwise, have been prepared under the direction of Mr. Careless, whose fame as a restaurateur has long been established, The assemblage will be the most brilliant ever witnessed at any similar meeting in the BASE AND COMFORT IN SHAVING MESSRS.

She will previously proceed to Plymouth and equip for foreign service ; it is be lieved her destination is China. The Cornwall, 50, troop-ship, Lieutenant Howe, is daily expected with naval and military invalids from China. . The Vernon, 50, just paid off at Sheerness, is to be docked. and surveyed for re-commission forthwith. • The Prometheus Steam-Vwel, Conimandir.4.-ilan is M ., pidly entering her hands and, equipping in .harbour here. Her destination when ready will be the coast of Africa. She will take dispatches and supernumeraries for the Penelope, 22, steam-frigate, Captain W. Jones, and other vesscls on the African station. The 'Malabar, 72, Captain Sir G. R. Sartorius, is being dis mantled in the harbour prior to being paid off. Should her timbers be found on overhauling .sound and firm, she will be re-commissioned to form one of the squadron of exercise. She has been upwardS of 50 years in the service. The Hydra steam-sloop, Commander H. B. Young, was at Ascension on the 25th of March. She landed commissariat silver at the Gambia, and touched at Sierra Leone. No case of fever of any amount has occurred on board her. The St. Vincent, 120, Captain Rowley, sailed on Friday to relieve the wind-bound vessels in the 'Channel, and with orders, should she see the Indus, 80, Captain Sir James Stir ling, Knight, to send her into Plymouth, to be paid- off, in stead of making this port, so that the proverb, "It's an_ ill wind that blows nobody good," will suit the good Pcr.,ple of Plymouth exactly.

When the breeze freshened the Vindictive gained more, and had it blown strong her advantage would have been infinitely greater. The Eurydice, 26, Captain G. Elliott, and Fair Rosamond, 2, schooner, Lieut.-Commander A. G. Bul man, were at Halifax on the 13th ult.; the Illustrious, 72, Captain J. E. Erskine, with the flag of Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Adam, K.C.8., Commander-in-Chief on the West India and North American station, arrived at Halifax on the 18th of May ; and the Hermes, steam-sloop, Lieut.-Commander Washington Carr, on the 10th, from Kingston, Jamaica, where fever had been awfully severe, and had proved fatal to many on board. No communication whatever was allowed from the shore, and the quarantine flag floated from her mast-head ; theßesistance, 42, Commander G. G. E. Patey. and Apollo, 8, Commander W. Maclean (troop-ships), left Halifax for Quebec on the sth of May, with the second battalion 59th (Rifles), and other troops on board. The Queen, 110, Captain Sir C. Sullivan, arrived at Gibral tar on the 17th ult. from Malta, and was there on the 19th with the Locust steam-vessel, Lieutenant-Commander John Lunn. We have good authority for stating that Captain A. Corry will be the Commodore of tha experimental 12-gun brig squadron during their trial, and that he will hoist his broad pendant as Commodore 'of the second class on board the Firebrand steam-vessel, the command of which, when the trial is concluded, will devolve on Captain James Hope.

John Gordon, was towed from the harbour into the Sound by the Confiance steam-vessel on Monday. The America is a crack ship, in splendid order • she is of a similar class to the Vindi c ti ve an d Warspite. This is the first time she has been commissioned since her conversion from a line-of-battle ship to a feigat;., She will be paid advance in a day or two, and proceed h the Pacific. Lieutenant Wynne, R.M., goes out in her to relieve Captain Mitchell, R.M., in the Carysfortt 26, Captain the Right Hon. Lord George Paulet.

D. A. Newman, assistant-surgeon of her Majesty's steam-vessel Lucifer, Commander G. A. Frazer, on a charge of having drawn a bill upon Government without the necessary authority, he being under stoppages at the time. In support of the charge, Mr. Eastlake, Queen's Soli citor, read several letters, one from the Accountant-General, Mr. Briggs, to Commander Frazer, stating the impropriety of the conduct pursued by Mr. Newman, he obtaining the sum of 46/. 15s, 6d. in advance, without the signature of his commander, aware at the same time that he stood indebted to the Crown in the sum of 381. 3s. Bd., and that a mark had been made against his name, as usual when parties were under stoppages. Letters of a similar nature were also writ ten to the correspondent of the Accountant - General , Mr. Robertson, and the Clerk of the Admiralty , Mr. Strutt , cautioning them not to accept the bill, in accordance with article 2 in the printed sheet of instructions, but that a debt was due to the Crown from the said Mr. Newman, which was to be received by them in instalments of Si. per quarter, to be deducted from his pay. After a very long examination of the facts, the Court decided that the charges had been fully established ; and the sentence of the Court was, that the said Charles D. A. Newman be forthwith dismissed from her Ma jesty's steam-vessel Lucifer, and he was dismissed accordingly. In Harbour—San Josef, Confiance, and Lucifer. In Dock (repairing)—Kent, Actaeon, and Grecian. In the Sound—Caledonia, America, and Prince Frederick (Dutch transport). SHEERNESS, MAY 31.—The Camperdown, 104, Captain W. F.

She was inspected on Thursday last by the surveyor of the navy, Sir W. Symonds. The Vulture first-class steam-frigate is in the basin, await ing her pendant, where are also the Monarch, 84, Chichester, 50, and Crocodile, 26.

The crops, how ever, are extremely scanty, with comparatively bare stems and deficient under-grass. The want of rain, and the long continuance of cold winds, have occasioned a very deficient growth in every direction, particularly upon the higher and more exposed descriptions of soil ; and it is probable that the price of hay will, in consequence, be considerably enhanced. —Doncaster Gazette. EGYPTIAN HALL.—Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, attended by the Baroness Ahle feldt, Baron Knesebeck, and Baron Koller, visited the Napoleon Museum on Saturday, and after examining its contents for more than two hours, were pleased to ex press their satisfaction and prom ised to honour it with another ghnes s visit. su b scr ß ib e ed for b e er le n a ani vin e g in "The Royal museum, and Noble Visitors' Book. her the Royal Hi CHINA We find in the Chinese Olio of Captain Pidding trans mitted last week, a mass of curious information respect ing the country with which, apparently, he is so well acquainted, and such as ono could hardly suppose it would be in his power to extend from week to week. Doubtless, however, as indeed professed, there are ample materials, or . the task would not have been commenced. The following items respecting the position of Russia, with reference to China, are of some interest : " Since the conclusion of the treaty at Nankin, amextra ordinary defalcation had become apparent in the commerce carried on at Kiskhta, and along the line of Siberia, with China. It was calculated that the defalcation would be equal fully to two-thirds of the average traffic of late years. Russian textile wares were entirely without de mand among the Chinese merchants, and the conse quence was that the manufacturers were encumbered with stocks which, for other markets, were not generally available. The cotton velvets, especially black, for which Riga had acquired a certain reputation, and which were a sort Of standard article for the Chinese trade, Were quite unmarketable, to the great consterna tion of the manufacturers of that port. The same was the case with cotton goods, and nearly so with the wool ' lens of Moscow. Under such circumstances the manu facturing interests of Russia were in the utmost dismay, Many parties are stated to have stopped their works alto gether, and more to have partially suspended, or much contracted their operations. It was apprehended that the stoppage of the works would become more gene ral still. " It appears beyond question, therefore, from - these re results, that the opening of the north-eastern ports of China to British enterprise has already baen the means of accomplishing a veritable revolution in the course of commerce. "We may be assured, however, that the policy of Russia isnot more asleep now in reference to China than it has been for the last century. In view of the important consequences which might be expected to flow both politically and commercially from the treaty of Nankin, betwixt Great Britain and China, a sort of diplomatic army of observation was organised and dispatched last year from St. Petersburgh to the frontiers, or rather to range along the frontiers, of China. We are enabled, in addition, to state that a Prince of the Tolstoy family is at the head of this mission extraordinary, whose object it cannot be difficult to comprehend, and whose station, in consonance with the pursuit of those objects, may be regarded as of permanent establishment." THE MARQUIS OF LONDONDERRY AND nis CoL unaiEs.—We are informed, by a cprrespond en t, t h at the Marquis of Londonderry has hid a meeting with some of the workmen lately employed on his collieries, but who are now out on strike, in obedience to the com mands of the union. We are given to understand that at this interview the Noble Marquis expressed the kindest feelings towards the pitmen, whom he earnestly recommended' to return to the paths of industry, but at the same time signified, in the most decided terms, his determination not to allow his collieries to remain idle. He would, he said, give his former workmen a short time to consider whether they would resume their labour ; and if they did not within that period intimate their intention to do so, he would repair to his Irish estates and bring ovor a sufficient number of men, who were able and desirous to work for an honest S and re spectable livelihood.—Durhwir Chronicle. Street-begging by the -pitmen, their wives i and children, is increasing to such an extent in this city as to demand the interposition of the civil authorities. The fact is painfully illustrative of the deep distress in which they must have been involved by their misguided con k duct, in throwing up their employment ; but misfortune wilfully courted, and perversely hugged as men would cherish a blessing, merits no sympathy and will receive but little commisseration. It is to be feared, too, that the alms occasionally bestowed, sometimes fall into the most worthless hands. An instance in point occurred a day or two ago. Three fellows ben-an to beg at the en trance to the gown, and continued be an perambulations till they met at a common centre ; when, dividing their gains, they found they had 4i. 3d. each ; whereupon, to. I manifest their joy and gratitude, they went and got drunk out of tho money. Bounty thus abused is not, we shonld think, very likely to be conferred again. Durham Chronicle . RAISING THE WIND.—A most ingenious act 'of imposition, attended with a forgery upon a highly'respect able solicitor's firm in the city, was enacted a few days since in the legal neighbourhood of Lincoln's Inn. It appears some rogue "learned in the lam," prepared a fictitious case in the usual terms of legal technicality, and which was duly endorsed "Case for the opinion of Mr. Bethel], 2 guineas.' The names of certain clients of Mr. Bethell's, as usual, were " case," a n d a cheque for 104 endorsed at the bottom of the purporting to be drawn by them upon Messrs. Lubbock, the bankers, was pxeaeuted to the clerk, who, unsuspecting they fraud, at woo handed over the difference between the fee wit _the 101. Upon the cheque being presented for payMent, the -thrgery was at once discovered. The delinquent, of course, pocketed the change with inward glee a the adroitness of the imposition; but it is a question whether he will success ; fully play the same game again, as we advise the profession,. to be on the alert. 1 PUBLICATIONS.

B. THE MONSTER ABORTION. TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN. Sia,—Your article of Tuesday, on Peel's giant hum bug is admirable ! but you were a little hard upon the unlucky Premier, in requiring of him a clear definition in reply to the question, " What is a pound ?"—How can you expect a man to define that of which he has not the slightest conception ! His obvious blunder, is, the fancy, that there is an unchanging standard, and that gold is such a standard ! Every man of clear intellect is aware, that no invariable standard does, or can exist. While this profound person talks of a sovereign as being synonymous with " a pound," he forgets, that the identical coin he " pantomimically " held up, would, about the close of the late war, have exchanged for one fourth part more silver than it will now ! The truth is, that gold obeys the same law as that which governs all other articles, it advances in price under an increased demand—and sinks in price when the ratio of demand to supply lessens. Your observations on the tomfoolery about silver are most just—allow me to add a postscript to them. The Bank is to be allowed to keep four millions out of sixteen in silver, but the noteholder is is not to be deprived of his right to demand payment in gold ! Good !—if gold is more valuable, in propor tion, than silver in the market (for example, if an ounce will fetch four pounds in silver), it is about as obvious as the profound commercial ignorance of the Prime Minister of Great Britain that not one single ounce of silver will leave the Bank cellars, and that the sixteen millions of the Company will, in effect, be reduced to twelve !! ! Yours, always, COMMON SENSE. DUDLEY OLD BANK.--The creditors of this bank received a dividend of 55., in the pound on Wednesday last. This is the second dividend, which, with the first, amounting to 6s. Bd. in the pound, settles better than half the demands upon the estate, which it is now confidently asserted will pay full 20s. in the pound. On Saturday the annual Pitt dinner was held in Merchant Tailors' Hall, Threadneedle-street. About 130 noblemen, Members of Parliament, and other gentle men, sat down to dinner, the Right Hon. Lord Fever sham in the chair. Amongst the company present were the Earls of Eldon and Dartmouth, Lords Farnham and Kenyon,' Sir R. Carr Glynn, Sir John Chetwode, and Sir John Crosse, Barts. ; the Hon. Lloyd Kenyon, the Hon. A. Duncombe, Col. Stewart Vyse, Major-General Sandwith, Major Moore, Colonel Sibthorp, M.P., A. Lefroy, Esq., M.P., Mr. Alderman Copeland, M.P., Mr. Round, M.l'., Quentin Dick, Esq., M.P., Joseph Neeld, Esq., M.P., G. W. J. Repton, Esq., M.P., C. M. Mullah, Esq., the master of the company, nearly all the wardens, as well as the most leading Conservatives of the City of London. The usual loyal and patriotic toasts having been drunk, the toast of the evening, " The Immortal Memory of the Hon. William Pitt," was given, and re ceived with the greatest applause. Numerous other toasts were drunk in the cosine of the evening, and the company broke up about eleven o'clock. EXTRAORDINARY BIRTH.—On the evening of Whit Monday, Susan Hobbs, wife of Micha el Hobbs, an indus trious labourer of Chiswick, was delivered of four chil dren, two boys and two girls.
