If we could imagine on earth a perfect constitution of government, and a social stige calling for no improvement, the country enjoying this constitution and this social state could be addressed in no other terms of congratulation than those upon which the Times affects to pour contempt. It is a great step towards this happy condition, that these happy topics can honestly and with truth be put forward in a royal address. It is not, however, pretended that our social state admits of no improvement ; many improvements in that state are called for, but they must be gradually adopted, that they may not 'et in greater evils than they can cure. And, ✓not withstanding the slighting way in which the Times speaks of the work of the session, we contend that more has been done in the last session to promote the prosperity of the country, than i rk any ten sessions before Sir Robert Peers coming into office. We are not now going to enumerate all these measures ; and it is quite unnecessary, for the achievements of legislation are to be measured, not by tale, but by weight, and one good measure may preponderate over one hundred of inferior importance and value.

GEORGE ROBINS is instructed by the Trustees for Sale of the late Henry Heyman, Esq., to SELL by PUBLIC AUCTION, at the Mart, London, on Tubas. DAY, October 3, at Twelve, in Two Lots, A very desirable FREEHOLD and COPYHOLD ESTATE, the latter held of the MANOR OF LORD SALISBURY. It is about fourteen miles from London, and on the completion of the London and York Railway passing by it, it will be within twenty minutes' ride of the great metropolis. It comprehends a very PRETTY VILLA ABODE, KNOWN AS LAUREL COTTAGE, quite unpretending, but with great capability ; to achieve this, in candour, it is made known that an outlay of 2001. or 3001. will be indispensable ; this, with the aid of a clever artiste, will restore it to its ancient renown, and render it fully adequate to all the legi. timate wants of a citizen or respectable family. THE REV. G. M. MYERS has domesticated here for several years; at Michaelmas his occu. pation will cease, and the purchaser may have possession at a month's notice. The situation is very prepossessing ;itis a little removed from, but in full view of, the high north road ; the gardens which encircle it are improved by thriving plantations, and the villa is adorned by a large conservatory and grapery ; the coach house and stables, and the farin-buildings, are shut out of view, and fully ample. The neighbourhood is ♦ery sociable, and the society select. The ensemble has A PARKISH CHARACTER, EXTENDING TO THIRTY.THREE ACRES of rich meadow and pasture, refreshed when in need by the streamlet that divides it ; and the other boundary is the HIGH NORTH TURNPIKE ROAD it is immediately vis-a-vis to MR. TROTTER'S PARK AND LODGE GATES, and only a short distance from the mansion of George Byng, Esq., THE WORTHY M.P. FOR MIDDLESEX. The present occupier of the land is Mr. Taylor, of South Mims, whose tenancy expires Sept. 29 this year. The rent for the whole is only One Hundred Guineas a year. Its real value may be stated at about ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY POUNDS. There is a considerable frontage to the high road, calculated to build upon successfully. The estate can be seen at any time, with the permission of Mr. Taylor, and the villa by asking leave of the Rev. Mr. Myers. Par ticulars had, 21 days before the sale, at the Green Man, Barnet ; of Mine Host of the Green Dragon, New-road (and very near to the property) ; of Messrs.

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 VERY PROMISING INVESTMENT, THE CEDRYN SLATE QUARRY, OF GREA I` EXTENT, situate in Carnarvenshire, North Wales. If it 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 mere under 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 cover. The work is already about 40 yards wide, and is capable of being extended to upwards of ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHT'i 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 fully 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 SORT 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 consequently afford lots of amusement, and the bill 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.

TIIE WEATHER—THE CROPS.—For the last week the weather has been most favourable for harvest work, and we learn with much satisfaction that it has gone on rapidly through the country districts. The wheat har vest is nearly everywhere finished, and the yield is de scribed as being productive, and the crop in good con dition. Indeed the complaints of any crops are not of a character to cause uneasiness or apprehension, and should we be favoured with a continuance of the present genial weather, everything promises to go well with the agriculturist in the south of Ireland.—Cork Southern Reporter. FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY. GLOBE—The session of Parliament was formally closed yesterday. The Joint-Stock Cabinet produc t:on—designated, by courtesy, " the Royal Speech" — was on this occasion read by the Lord Chancellor. This circumstance is a source of satisfaction. That so wretched a composition—in which the object and interest of its concoctors was manifestly to say nothing, and thus to cast veil over their own incompetency for conducting the business of the nation with advantage—should have been placed in the hands, and passed from the lips, of our beloved Sovereign, would have excited regret. It is bad enough that the country should be cursed with so wretched a set of Ministers; it would increase the mortification, for it would enhance the incessant mischiefs they inflict, were the Queen to be exhibited on the throne, as their puppet, to speak a string of words of no meaning, such as the Speech of yesterday was constructed ef. The session is described in the Speech as "laborious and protracted." If were laborious," its labours were unproductive of good— if protracted, the time it occupied in it , sittings was unmarked by a single measure of national The session of 1843-4 will be chronicled as devoid of interest. It would be well if the most prominent of the incidents which have occurred during its proceedings could be obliterated from the records of Parliament. Circumstances have occurred in the course of the debates that have tended to lower the House of Com mons in the estimation of the country. Weakness of purpose, shown by truckling to the dictation of the Minister, have brought its character as an independent branch of the Constitution, into discredit, if they do not brand it with disgrace. The divisions on the ten hours' clause of the Factory Bill, and upon the sugar duties resolution, will remain—a proverb ofreproach to the assembly in which the inconsistencies occurred. The Speech states, with more of swagger than is jus tified by the paucity of information it deigns to supply, " that, by the justice and moderation of the two Go vernments, the events which seemed likely to inter rupt the good understanding and friendly relations between this country and France have been averted." In the House of Commons Sir Robert Peel and Lord Aberdeen designated the conduct of the French authorities at Otaheite " a gross outrage," fur which " ample satisfaction" had been " promptly de • minded," and " must be obtained." There is reason to believe that these "brave words" were all of bravery that the British Government displayed ; or that if they were used in the discussion between the two Govern ments, their tone was soon lowered to a standard more consistent with the craven courage which distin guishes the presiding genius of the Foreign-office. The " gross outrage" to British honour has been atoned for ; and the indignation it called forth from the Pre mier and his Foreign Secretary has been propitiated, by the mere removal from the scene of outrage of M. D'Aubigny, the functionary who perpetrated the foul indignity on the British Consul, and the insult to the British flag. His dismissal from the French service, if required by the British Government, was refused. Mr. Pritchard, who suffered personally and officially from the violence of the French autho rities, is no longer to be entrusted with the func tions of a Consul. 'Without a single imputation upon his conduct, he is sacrificed by his Government at the altar of French sensitiveness. He was the victim of French violence at Otaheite. He is the victim of British injustice at home. This, in the language of the Speech, is "justice and moderation." Every where else it is spoken of as a paltry concession to French arrogance—a pusillanimous abandonment of rightful clahns—a criminal indifference to the honour and interests of the British name and nation. Peace would not have been perilled by firm ness—it would have been preserved. Future causes of difference between the two countries would have been prevented, if in the di , cussions on the Otaheitan question between the two Governments, a tone and bearing had been adopted more consistent with the position of the British nation, and with the nature of the "outrage" upon our flag and representative, of which we complained. The British Government affected to feel, as it ought, when :speaking on the subject ; but this feeling has apparently evaporated in sound. The paragraph in which " the result of the session " is summed up, is of the style usually designated "slap-dash." It was evidently contributed by Lord Lyndhurst, as his portion toward the Cabinet com position :—" The result of the session has been a completion of many measures calculated to im prove the administration of the law, and to pro mote the public welfare." The only measure which is specifically mentioned, as justifying this high-sounding claim to legislative wisdom and utility, is the Bank Restriction Issue Bill—a measure Certainly not connected with the " administration of the law ;" while the extent to which it will operate to " promote the public welfare," is more easily affirmed than demonstrated. We gave it the aid of our general approval at the time it was brought forward. We still think it calculated to place the monetary transactions of the country on a sounder basis. But who ever expected to see it paraded in the Speech, at the close of the session, as the ground of a claim on the part of the Government to a nation's praise ? How miserably deficient must the session have shown itself, when looking back upon their doings, the Cabi net, while concocting the Speech with which to close its " laborious and protracted " proceedings, could find nothing more important among them than this mediocre production, to mention by name ! The omission of all allusion to Ireland must strike every one. There is more eloquence in this silence than any words that could have been em ployed. 'We read in it the deep mortifica tion inflicted by defeat—the distracting diffi culties with which Ministers feel themselves sur rounded. They are not only at a loss what to do— they are actually at a loss what to say. Speech fails them—confusion covers them. "What ! not one word about Ireland? Has not the dignity of the law'been vindicated ? Has not the public peace been preserved and the advantages of social order secured, by the prosecution and condign punishment of those who at tempted to subvert them ? What has become of that part of the Speech in which the policy of Ministers in the government of Ireland was lauded by themselves, as demonstrative of their wisdom and energy ? 'Where is now that well-poised paragraph ? The reversal of the judgment pronounced upon Mr. O'Connell has converted their wisdom into foolish ness, and rendered them the objects at which a nation points its finger in derision. They will be laughed to scorn by the Irish people ; instead of being, as they otherwise would have been, the theme of their undying antipathy. Sir Robert Peel will learn during the recess, that which he ought long since to have known and acted upon—that he cannot govern Ireland. The party with which he is associated, and which endures him as its head, will not allow him to act upon a generous policy towards a sensitive peo ple ; and that people will not submit to be nominally freemen, while the Ministers seek to govern them as though they were slaves. STANDARD.—The Times has this day an ill natured article upon the Royal Speech. The tone of the article, which makes a commentary upon the Speech a vehicle for a personal attack upon the Pre mier, will surprise no one who has had experience of the general " fault-finding" disposition of our morning Contemporary, and has paid any attention to its recent conduct towards her Majesty's Govern ment. The Times commences by an allusion to the announcement of " the re-establishment of perfect amity with France." This must be a bitter dove to a journal which had laboured with so much assiduity to prove the improbability of such a"re-establish ,ment of perfect amity," and, indeed, had l d e oneth eose its part to render it improbable, if not impossible; being thus bitter, it is swallowedviitshib- all dispatch. The commentator then proceeds to commend the style and structure of the Royal Address, somewhat equivo cally,. as " something more than an average, t. specimenof the ordinary featherbed style of composition, lo?, and . the ordinary milk-and-water, pierc)s.o contemptuous information which 'this _ontemptuous tone such documents display. f any Statepaper, may be employe . d in speaking eits; whatever its merits, provided only that it has merits; such documents, if they are easy and clear i n s t y l e, and communicateinformation,_ which is a t once true and gratifying, satisfy, Nye presu me, a l l i requirements. Doubtless f the Times had to write a Royal Speech, it would season it with a few sneers to please those who hate to hear any one, or anything, commended without qualification, or with a few anecdotes furnished, perhaps, by its "naval offi cer" c orrespondents. , Th e pauc i ty of " definite state ments' is, however, fixed upon as the great defect of the Speech. What would our Contemporary have ? The Speech announces peace ab roa d an d a t h ome, improved activity in manufactures and commerce, a greatly aug mented revenue, and the prospect of an abundant har vest. eras the Spe ec h t o enter i nto part i cu l ars — to g i ve the statistical proofs in support of all these general statements ? In that case we should compassionate all obliged to listen to it. Let nobody imagine that because these gratifying statements are necessarily general, they are things of course. The experience of " Bank of England, Sept. 5. " At a Court of Directors, held this day, " Resolred,—That the rate of - interest in London for bills urn] notes discounted for the Bank of England be as follows : " Bills " Notes " Such bills and notes not having more than 95 days to run." By this notice the Directors plainly intimate to , the moneyed interest that they intend to place the Bank of of England in future with regard to pecuniary accommodation on the same footing as any private banker. Before the passing of the late Act, and when no limit was fixed to the issues, they were re strained from entering into competition with the ge neral discount market by the consideration that they were the regulators of the currency, and accountable for its excess. Now that the Government have fixed the limit of 14,000,0001., and also separated the two func tions, they no longer think any such precaution neces sary, and intend, in fact, to consider all the funds placed in deposit with them entirely at their disposal for the benefit of the Proprietors. Although this would appear to be almost a natural consequence of the new Act, its announcement to-day seems to have taken the moneyed interest by surprise ; in fact, we have not found is any quarter the least anticipation of it. The distinction made in the notice between " notes" and " bills " is not perhaps generally intelligible. In Bank practice, by " notes" is meant bills of exchange drawn by merchants and traders in or near London, while by " bills " is meant likewise bills of exchange, but drawn out of Lon don, and preferred because a greater number of names is usually attached to them. We only speak of Bank practice in this distinction, for out of doors it is rather laughed at as a distinction without any essential dif ference. The object of this notice, without doubt, as already hinted at, is that of advantage to the proprietors of 13ank stock, but it does not follow that the great discount houses, who combined are scarcely less powerful than the Bank of England itself, will allow the business upon which they depend to be thus taken from them, and-it is generally anticipated, therefore, that they will now adopt still lower terms than those they at present re quire. As the Bank cannot in any case take the posi tion of a reg ular discount broker, who receives money , on the one h and and lends it out on the other, they can not encroach upon their transactions ; and the chief dis advantage will therefore fall upon those who send money for temporary employment to the discount-brokers, :and who will now receive a lower rate, the broker's profit consisting in the difference between the rate at which he borrows and the rate at which he lends. Hence it be comes a matter of secondary importance to the discount broker what rate he receives, and makes his competi tion with the Bank a very formidable one. On the pri vate bankers the measure might be supposed to have a more serious effect, but borrowers generally are willing to pay something for secrecy and confidence. Hence it is.surmised altogether that the Bank of England will not derive any great increase of business from this measure. ECOLLMAN'S RAILWAY LOCOMO- TIVE ENGINE. The improvements Mr. Kol!man contemplates by this new locomotive are of great importance, and, it' carred into effect, would contribute much to the safety of railway passengers. These improvements include the capability of traversing curves of any required radius, with sFeed, diminution of friction, ai.d in crease of safety; of ascending and descending inclines of such gradients as have hitherto been deemed im practicable; of reducing very considerably the ex penditure in the original construction, and in the maintenance and working of every department of the system ; and of increasing materially the general safety and comfort of passengers. The latter point is certainly the most interesting to the public, 'for though facility in ascending and descending inclines, and the reduction of the expenses caused by wear and tear, are matters of importance to the proprietors, safety , is the great object o f the traveller. Mr. Kollman thus explains the advantages to be gained in this respect by the new plan—" The running off the line, to which, in the present state of things, there is so frequent a ten dency, especially in curves of short radius, becomes next to impossible. The reduction of the centre of gravity to so low a position precludes the liability to overturn ; whilst the attachment of the train through out its range to the guide rails by means of the hori zontal wheels, guarantees its security, unless the whole machinery were disrupted and displaced. The avoidance of that injurious and violent process of grinding and sliding on the rails, inseparable from the present defective state.of things, involving as it does the unnatural expedients of coning the wheels, and giving undue and more dangerous plai in their lateral range, must not be regarded as a trivial advan tage; as by these means that oscillating and vibratory motion peculiarly distressing to most passengers, especially to females, as well as productive of inju rious results to proprietors, is entirely removed, and the carriages will be found to keep the even tenor of their way without swerving or jolting, however rapid the transit on the direct line, or on such a curve as might call into action centrifugal force."

ANOTHER LADY THIEF.—A female of respectable appearance called on Monday last, on a respectable family in Carriage-hill (a suburb of Paisley), seemingly in great distress of mind, and pretending she was going to Neilston to see a friend. Site sai 1 she had been robbed in a tavern in High-street, Glasgo v, of all her property-, cog sisting of 250/. in cash, a fine silk plaid, and other arCcles, which accounted for the rather shabby shawl she then wore. The money, the paid, and the thieves, she said, had been discovered—the thieves in prison, an d the plaid and money kept as evidence a g a inst tiara.

In introducing several of the. most distressing, the doctor remarked that all had the advice of several of the most distinguished aurists in this- 7 country, and many on the Continent, and that others hatl• submitted to a most painful and useless operation of the, throat, which invariably tended to make the he arin g, more imperfect. In illustrating the latter stateme nt, the \ lecturer noticed the case of a young man named Ryan, 1 residing at 13, Holland-street, Soho-square, who, for slight deafness, had submitted to this operation, and suf fered so much from pain and loss of blood that he was confined to his bed for a fortnight, from which he got up very deaf, but by the use of Arnica his hearing was com pletely restored. Having forcibly rema rked on s everal cases similarly treated, the lecturer next alluded to the . following interesting case :—Mr. Dupre, of Jersey, h e remarked, was completely deaf of one car for thirty years, in consequence of the explosion of a gun on board a frigate when in chase of a French frigate ; and that the other had become within the last twelve months nearly as bad, yet, although pronounced by an eminent aurist in London incurable, within a month the hearing in both ears was perfectly restored. Several other cases were then noticed, after which the lecturer concluded his lecture by remarking, he intended immediately to pub lish a report of the cases, the mode of preparing the .rnice, and the method of usin it.
