DURE PALE BRANDY, Vintage 1808, same quality as heretofore, ,725. per dozen ; three dozen cases, 101. 10s. HENEKEY and COMPANY. Gray's Inn, Wine Establishment, 23, High Holborn. CHALLENGE TO THE FRENCH DlSTlLLERS.—Extraordinary as it may appear to persons favourable to the use of French Brandy, and enter taining prejudices against that of home manufacture, J. T. BETTS and CO., with the most perfect confidence in the superiority of their production, do hereby publicly challenge the best manufacturers of Cognac, to produce an article of equal purity, and possessed of the same wholesome properties, as the PATENT BRANDY. In flavour, it assimilates closely to the finest Cognac ; and J. T, Betts and Co. could carry their similarity to a point to render it nearly, if not perfectly, identical ; but, as such a fan cied advantage could be obtained only by imitating certain im purities existent in Foreign Brandies, from which their own is entirely exempt, they are determined not to minister to a vitiated taste, at the expense of the established purity of their Spirit. Borne out by the Testimonials of many eminent Chemists, by whom their Patent Brandy has been analyzed—by the sanc tion of the Faculty, who are constantly recommending its use —by the assurance of innumerable families, of all ranks, who find it more congenial to their health than the Foreign—by their perfect willingness, at all times, that it should stand or fall by its own intrinsic merits—and by their certain knowledge that no part of their representation is overstated—J. T. Botts and Co., fortified by all these circumstances, dare their conti nental neighbours to meet tham on that ground; a challenge which they must either accept, or, by a refusal, tacitly admit the superiority of the Patent Brandy. The formation, from time to time, of ephemeral establish ments, by parties styling themselves Brandy Distillers, who re present their Brandy as equal or superior to the Patent ; and the frauds co n ti nua ll y pract i se d b y ot h ers i n se lli ng i n f er i or articles as Bett s ' s P a t en t B ran d y ; ren d er i t i n di spensa bl y re quisite for the Patentees to impress upon consumers the abso lute necessity of satisfyinethernsolves that it is Betts's Patent Brandy which they re a lly . obtain. If purchasers would take this simple precaution, the complaints frequently made of the defective character of Home-made Brandy, would soon cease to be heard. The Patentees, as Distillers, cannot send out less than Two Gallons, which may be obtained, either pale or coloured, for Cash on delivery, at Eighteen Shillings per Imperial Gallon, of the highest legal strength, at the Distillery, No. 7, Smithfield bars, leading to St. John-street,—their only Establishment. 96, CHEAPSIDE, AND 39, ALBEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY.

The Exhibition opened on Wednesday last, and up to Friday night the number of visitors, as accurately taken by Mr. Edmundson's system of checks, was 1,571. The number of visitors on Saturday was 850, on Monday about 1,200, and yesterday at least 1,150, giving a total in the six days of 4,771, of whom 3,200 visited the rooms during the last three days. At night, too, there are exhibitions by illumination, the different coloured signals for use by night on railways, which attract considerable notice. In the vestibule we notice some very fine busts, of which our townsman, Mr. Cardwell.:has contributed five, the production of his own chisel. In the cabinet, at the entrance to the large lower room, is an ingenious papier-mache imitation of a suit of ancient armour ; five pieces of mounted ord. nance ; two pieces of rich Chinese embroidery, and a specimen of Russian velvet, sent by Mark Philips, Esq., M. P. ; two specimens of the silk manufactures of the 47th century ; a skin rug ; some papier-mache figures, representing Joan of Arc, the Virgin, the Sire de Courcy, and Sancho Panza ; several very beautiful papier-mache tables, with rich Japan work, one inlaid with mother-o'-pearl ; papier-mache cabinet of shells, &c. This little cabinet of curiosities, when brilliantly lighted, has a very striking effect. To the young in quiring mind, much will be found that is novel, inter esting, and instructive, in the different processes and manufactures carried on in the exhibition.—M a nchester Guardian. [We quote this as an example of numer ous exhibitions of the kind, which are takin g place throughout the manufacturing districts, and which to hear of affords us great pleasure. They much tend to improve the taste and manners, and extend the knowledge of the labouring classes. We cordially wish them success.] On Tuesday an inquest, which occupied several hours, was held at the Falcon public-house, Fetter-lane, Fleet -street, before Mr. Payne, on the body of Thomas Jenkins, a boy fourteen years of age, who lost hia life by the falling of the two houses in Fetter-lane on Mon day afternoon. It further appeared that the premises have been allowed (notwithstanding no fewer than four presentations have been made to the Court of Alder men within the last two years by the inhabitants of the parish of St. Dunstan) to remain in a most delapidated and dangerous condition. The present unfortunate ca lamity arose through Jenkins knocking away the brick work which supported the upper floor and the immense quantity of rubbish which lay on it. The Jury returned a verdict of " Accidental death," accompanied by a recommendation to the City authorities to remove the nuisance, and also to examine into the condition of seve ral other buildings situated in the immediate neighbour. hood, alleged to be in a very precarious state. AN HONEST TIIIEF.-The following extraor dinary occurrence took place in Bradford on Saturday night :—As Thomas Holdsworth, of Bunker's Hill, in that town, milk-seller, was making his way through the Green Market, which at the time was much crowded, and having a market basket on his arm, he was a good deal jostled in the crowd. On reaching the bottom of the steps, and passing by the stall of Mr. Thomas Pearson, butcher, the unusual appendage of a gold watch was noticed d ang li ng at the end of the basket. The singularity of the circumstanc e induced Mr. Pear son to send his assistant after Holdsworth to inquire into the cause, who, not returning so soon as he thought rea sonable, Mr. Pearson sent Mr. John Walmsley, who happened to be at his stall at the time, to inquire into the affair. He found Holdsworth almost in a state of stupe faction, and totally unable to account for the suspension of a gold watch to his basket. He returned with them to Mr. Pearson's stall, and it was found that the watch was securely fixed by the ribbon having passed be tween the willows of the basket, and the key, acting as a bar, -kept it suspended. How it came there could only be surmised ; but the inquiry arose, What's to b e done ?' This was soon determined, and Mr. Holds worth, in company with Mr. Walmsley (who is in the employ of Messrs. Wood and Walker) as a witness, set off to the bellman toh'ai,eto takethe the watch cr e d. When Kirkgate, they determinedwatch t in oMr. Allott and have it examined and valued. The watch c w o a m s pronounced m e n e d t o take to Rhodes,tl bwye whomre r re commended Mr. Allott ascertained the watch had been sold. This w to or N th lr. 2 t. was done, and the watch was found to be the property of Mr. Wright, of Spring Gardens, Manningharn-lane, who, previously to their arrival at his house, had dis covered his loss. Mr. Wright rewarded the restorers of his property with 10s., and a prosecution was forborne —the thief being inanimate, and the theft unpremedi tated. In pressing through the crowd, the point of a willow projecting from the basket, had caught the watch ribbon, and dragged it from the pocket.—H a l fa Express.

The other lad ran forward to save him, but could not reach him. The tide soon carried him under the vessel s i n t h e t i er and he was drowned. A similar accident occurred to a sailor boy off Deptford on Monday evening, w hil e h e was sculling a boat, and the lad was drowned. This dangerous practice of standing on boats' thwarts and sculling them by means of one oar is frequently attended with fatal results. COURT OF CHANCERY, Nor. 20. HAWYSWORTH V. BRAMMALL. The arguments in this case, which commenced yes terday, were resumed to-day. The case came before his Lordship upon appeal from the decision of his Honour the Vice-Chancellor, decreeing the specific performance of an award deciding upon the manner in which the accounts of a partnership in a file trade should be kept, that partnership having been put an end to. The ap pellants contended that the plan adopted by the arbi trators was not correct, inasmuch as it was very inju rious to them. Mr. WIGRAM and Mr. K. PARKER appeared for the appellants, and Mr. COOPER and Mr. WALKER sup ported the decree of the Court below. The LORD CHANCELLOR, at the conclusion of the arguments, postponed giving judgment. WELLESLEY V. WELLESLEY. This case came before the Court upon appeal from the judgment of the Vice-Chancellor over-ruling the defendant's demurrers, put in to the plaintiff's bill for want of equity, but allowing it for want of parties. roe plaintiff in the case is the present Lady of Mr. Long Pole Wellesley, and the defendants are that gentleman, Messrs. Wright and Greeenly, the trustees of certain of his estates, Mr. Wellesley, jun., and several other per sons. On the separation of Mr. Wellesley in 1834, from the plaintiff, for the purpose of making a provision for her, he entered into a covenant that he would on or before the Ist of February, 1835, well and effectually, either by charge on freehold estates of inheritance, situated in England or Wales, or by an investment of an adequate sum of , money in the Funds, or by the best means that Might then be in his power, secure to her an income or 1,0001. a year. Mr. Wel lesley having failed to fulfil this engagement, Mrs. Wel lesley filed her bill, for the purpose of having it de clared by the Court that she had a lien to the extent of 1,0001. a year on the estates of Mr. Wellesley, of which the defendants, Wright and Greenly, were trustees to raise 462,000/. To this bill the defendants put in a demurrer for want of equity. On the case coming on before the Vice-Chancellor, his Honour considering that Mrs. Wellesley had a lien on the property, overruled the demurrer, and upon that decision the present appeal was brought. Mr. Wigram and Mr. Toiler were for the appellants ; and Mr. Jacob, Mr. Richards, and Mr. Stuart for the respondents. The case on behalf of the appellants had not con cluded when his Lordship rose. POLICE INTELLIGE NCE. GUILDHALL. EXTENSIVE ROBBERY OF LACE.—Yesterday, Charles Powell, remanded from Saturday, was placed at the bar, charged with stealing a parcel of lace, value 101. The policeman had met him on Saturday afternoon with the parcel in question walking in London-wall. On questioning him, the prisoner stated that he was taking it to Bow , ehurch-yard ; on which the policeman, thinking something was wrong, took him to the station house. On inquiry, it appeared that the lace in ques tion had been sent by Messrs. Mullins, lace dealers in Bow-church-yard, to a house in Birmingham, who had retnrned the parcel to them by Messrs. Deacon the carriers. The waggoner of Messrs. Deacon proved receiving , the parcel in question at the railroad station, and that when he arrived at Cripplegate-buildings it was missing. The prisoner was fully committed for trial. WARNING TO OMNIBUS TRAVELLERS.—Yesterday, Thomas Horsey, No. 576, a conductor of one of Giles's omnibuses, appeared to answer the complaint of M. Klauer Klattowsky, a teacher of languages. The Secretary to the Metropolitan Carriage Com missioners was in attendance to watch the proceedings. It appeared that, one evening last week, the com plainant got into defendant's omnibus in Fleet-street, having previously asked if he went to Oxford-street, to which defendant replied in the affirmative. On arriving at the Regent-circus, Piccadilly, he found that this was not the case, as the omnibus was going to Kensington. He insisted on getting out. Defendant refused to let him do so, until he had paid his fare, and assaulted him. There was no number inside the omnibus, nor could he see the badge. A policeman interfered, and witness paid his fare, and took defendant's number. The defendant denied that he had acted as stated, and called a witness, who, however, did not shake the complainant's testimony. He then took a technical ob jection to the summons, which the Alderman said was fatal, but, on the application of the Secretary to the Carriage Commissioners, he granted another summons. QUEEN- S Q UA RE. THE LATE CASE OF HAWKING WITHOUT A LICENSE. —Yesterday a gentleman attended at this office from the Countess of Galloway, and stated that he had been directed by Lady Galloway, who had read an account of a - man named Jennery being committed for hawking without a license, to inquire how assistance could best be administered to the defendant or his family. Mr. BURRELL very politely referred the applicant to Mr. Edwards, the Chief Clerk, who gave her the ad dress of the objects of his inquiry. A lady, who is believed to be Mrs. N. Rothschild, has forwarded 2/. to assist the wife and children, who are in a very distressed state. INFORMATIONS AGAINST P AWNBROKERS.-Mr. Thos. Price Jones, of No. 3, Tothill-street, Westminster, pawnbroker, yesterday appeared to answer an informa tion laid against him by Wyatt, the common informer, charging him with taking more than the legal interest, whereby he had incurred a penalty of 101. Mr. Humphries, who appeared for the defendant, took an objection to the information, on the ground that the prelude to the offence stated in the information was clumsily put together. Mr: BURRELL considered that the objection was of no vital importance, and decided upon hearing the case upon its merits. A woman named Anne Owen proved that on Friday, the 15th inst., she went to the defendant's shop and redeemed a gown which she had pledged on the 18th of July last. The defendant himself served her, and took 35., the sum lent upon the article, and 3d. interest. Both gown and money were the informer Wyatt's, and she had both pledged and redeemed the article by his directions. In her cross-examination the witness said she had attended at various police courts for some time past as a witness, and that she got her living by acting as such, and washing for the informers Wyatt and Birch. Richard Miller, who called himself an accountant, but who also occasionally acted as informer's witness, merely to fill up his leisure time, as he termed it, proved accompanying last witness, and seeing the surplus inte rest (one halfpenny) taken. Mr. Humphries, on behalf of his client, did not deny the offence, but said that after the Magistrate had heard two witnesses, who were kept for the sole pur pose of supporting informations, he thought he would be inclined to give the smallest penalty. Mr. BURRELL said the case had been fully proved, and he must convict. He did not consider that be cause witnesses were paid to give evidence, be was to give the smallest penalty. It was notorious what ex cessive interest pawnbrokers had charged and would charge, if it were not for the watchful eye kept upon them by men who professedly lived by bringing them to justice. It seemed to him that in this case the regular mode of doing business was very clearly shown, for even the master of the house did not hesi tate to take excessive interest from a woman who, for aught he knew, might have been very poor. Dis couraging informations of this kind would have the effect of placing the poorer portion of the public at the mercy of the pawnbrokers. He should inflict a pe nalty of .5/. and costs.—The penalty was paid. WORSHIP-STREET. CAUGHT AT LAST,—John Sluices, alias Willi am Grffiths, a notorious member of the swell mob, wa s finally examined upon a charge of having stolen a reti cule belonging to Mrs. Patterson, a lady residing at Holloway. It appeared that at about noon on Thursday last the prisoner thrust his hand through the window of the pro secutrix's carriage, while it was waiting for her at the door of a shop in Chiswell-street, and abstracted the reticule, containing some trifling property w hi ch , was lying on th e sea t. The coachman jumped of the box and raised a hue and cry after him, upon which the prisoner popped the reticule into the basket of a baker who was passing, and continued his flight, but be was soon afterwards run down and secured. Upon being asked by the policeman who took him into custody what the charge was, the prisoner, with great nonchal ance , replied " 0, it i s on l y a b o bbery about a bag," He was fully committed, but was ordered to be brought up again to-day, in order that the depositions m i g h t b e taken. A fresh charge was now preferred against him, of having knowingly received a quantity of stolen silk in an unwanufactured state, which was valued at 401., the property of Mr. Graham, a silk-manufacturer in S p i ta l_ square. After evidence had been given, the prisoner, who made no defence, was accordingly committed for trial. John Adam s an d J ose ph Oliver, who stood c h arge d , the former w ith h av i ng sto len, and the latt er rece i ved, a large qua n tit y o f ga ll o on, the property of M r . New bury, the first-named prisoner's master, were finally brought up and fully committed. Lord Boringdon, who has been making a tour in Spain during the autumn, has arrived at Salham House, Devonshire, from Malta.

EAST INDIA COM PANY'S STEAM FRIGATE, THE QUEEN. This magnificent ship of war, of gOO tons, and of which we have before given a description, in her pas sage to Portsmouth' has proved herself to have all the properties of one of the fastest sailing vessels in the British Navy. She made the passage from Hythe to Portsmouth, solely under canvass, in forty hours, with the wind directly against her, and not much of it. She passed every description of vessel she fell in with, and presented to them the novel and extraordinary sight of a steamer without wheels or funnel beating to wind ward as well and as fast as the best frigate in the Royal Navy. No expense has been spared in the fitting up and the equipment of this ship and the Cleopatra, another steam-frigate of the East India Company, of the same dimensions, sailing in company with the Queen. These vessels do great credit to the Court of East India Directors, as evincing their conviction of the neces ity of a powerful fleet of steam ships to guard the oasts of the different Presidencies in case of a war with any Foreign Powers, to keep up a rapid commu nication, and for the quick transmission of troops ; and, above all, in case of having to carry war into the territories of any hostile power whose shores are accesi ble by sea, to sweep every obstacle that may present it self before them. As ships of war there is no question of their capabilites. Captain Warner, the commander of the Queen, is an officer of great experience ; and if a Burmese war should break out, he will, with the Queen, be found most useful. During the late Burmese war he led the fleet into the Arracon river. He also served in the cruisers on that dangerous coast in the affairs of 1811 and 1812. He is in every respect deserving the high charge and honourable command to which he has been selected, and no doubt when occasion calls for it he will afford ample proof of it. (WEDNESDAY EVENING.) POST. —From what has transpired in the City to day respecting the affairs of the late Mr. Sims, it would appear to be but too true that the unfortunate gentle man has been very extensively implicated in the recent losses arising upon Spanish Stock transactions. The clubs at the west-end of the town have, as we have al ready intimated, been great losers, and Mr. Sims is said to have been connected with them. We are unable to state how far this may be correct, but, at all events, there has been an immense amount of the bonds pressed upon the market, and the sum sold for the estate of Mr. Sims is understood to have been within a trifle of a quar ter of a million. It came out in the evidence given at the inquest held on the hody,that Mr.Sinis had contem plated a journey to •Madrid with his brother. This fact tends to confirm the idea that he had embarked a serious sum of money in the public securities of Spain, and his anxiety to visit the capital of that country is now naturally assumed to have been founded on a determination to satisfy himself; by personal obser vation, of the actual condition of the Government in a financial point of view. General Sooane entered some time ago upon the task of investigating the causes of the gross breach of faith committed by the Government on the foreign creditors of Spain, but General Seoane was forthwith invested with a command in Catalonia. Senor Calatrava has since insisted in the Cortes upon being informed by what treachery it was the credit of his country had been reduced to the state of prostra tion in which it has been for the last three years. As in the case of General Seoane, means seem, however, to have been found for suspending the inconvenient interrogatories of Senor Calatrava, and we fear, there fore, that the bondholders may look in vain for any further explanation of the schemes which have been resorted to by Spain in order to rob them of their property than that which was afforded in 1837 by Mendizabal. The ex• Minister of Finance with held from the public knowledge one thing which it was of the last importance to the bondholders to have had officially stated, namely, who were the un principled persons here that acted as his agents in the nefarious business of putting new stock into circulation in the previous year ; yet if the bondholders have read with the least attention what we have made public upon this point, there can be no great occasion for them to go to Madrid to ascertain more. The vote of confidence gave Mendizabal the power to issue by stealth new stock to the amount of between four and five millions, as well as to re-issue that which had been redeemed ac cording to law, and out of this transaction he got—for he distinctly acknowledges it—from the pockets of Bri tish capitalists, and their clients and supporters, no less a sum than about a million and a half sterling. With facts like these before us, we repeat there is no necessity for us to go to Madrid to learn more, nor can we be sur prised that the victims of such atrocious frauds should he unable to bear up against their losses. Mr. Sims pur chased the chief part of his stock, we understand, at :39. and upwards. The present price is about 6 per cent. under that quotation, and this, it is to be observed, in spite of the retirement of Don Carlos from the civil con- flict. What must be the suspicions of a large holder, under such circumstances, of foul play being again in operation ? Mr. Sims, like many others, was ashamed no doubt to admit the extent to which he had been duped by the Spanish Government and their London agents, after all the warnings of the Morning Post, but being reduced to a state of distraction by the in jury, the matter necessarily comes out, and we hope at any rate that an awful occurrence like this will operate as a caution to others who may be addicted to similar dangerous speculations in the funds. The dishonesty of Spain towards her foreign creditors seems to be a subject worthy of investigation in Parliament. The press, we are sorry to say, has not done its duty. The conduct of the Americans, whose integrity as a na ti on there seems to b e no j ust ground for questioning, has been a subject of incessant animadversion ; yet Spain and Portugal, whose want of integrity is proved beyond all doubt, are almost entirely spared. A brief statement of the delinquencies of both the one and the other in the House of Commons, if it were productive of no other benefit, would at least serve to give the fullest publicity to them. The English Funds were firm all day, but without much appearance of activity. The accounts last received from Brazil advised a material rally in the price of the local stock, which had previously suffered so heavy a depreciation. The im provement adverted to is accounted for in some private letters we have seen partly, and, indeed, principally on the ground that the Finance Minister at Rio hopes to be able to get through his difficulties without having recourse to another foreign loan. The committee of finance have declared themselves to be almost unani mously opposed to such a measure, and it was be lieved the Legislature were prepared to pass a reso lution to the effect that it would be contrary to the best interests of the empire. Money to some amount would, however, shortly have to be raised to pay up the arrears due to the army and navy, and for other matters, and the scheme adopted for the purpose will probably be that of issuing forced Treasury notes at six, twelve, eighteen, and twenty-four months' date, to bear interest at the rate of 7 3-16th per cent. per an num. The reimbursement is proposed to be guaranteed by the amortization of a portion of the debt, by a reser vation of wine duties, &c. Another project of law, the object of which is to put the home debt on a better footing, was talked of as a means of maintaining the public credit. It is somewhat amusing to see with what extra ordinary perseverance the Americans are endeavour ing to revive a demand i❑ the English market for their State stocks. The newspapers—the Morning Chronicle more especially —teem with letters calling the public attention to them, and setting forth in the most glowing language the superiority of the. commodity, as if a really desirable article could need any such extravagant commendation. The earnest. ness with which a linen-draper insists upon the excel lence of a piece of finery which is going out of fashion, and which he is consequently most anxious to get rid of, has been contrasted with the perseverance with which an old clothesman exposes the thinness and other bad qualities of the habiliment he is equally an xious to purchase. There is consequently nothing new or wonderful in the policy of the American stock and share proprietors. They are in the position of the draper. These investments are getting sadly out of date, and it will be a very long time, we think, before they enjoy the same favour again in England that they have done. The market has boon greatly overdone with them, and if the interest continues to be regularly paid upon most of the number during a period of profound and general peace, it does not follow that it would be in a time of war, and such a season may come upon us whoa we litt'e expect it. England has not at present any more money to spare, and it is far better that America should suspend her canal, railway, and other improvements until she can afford to pay for them out of her own resources. The Philadel phia Banks appear, according to the accounts received by the Scotland, to have perfectly reconciled themselves to the alternative of stopping payment once more, as they did in 1837, rather than part with specie in co change for their notes, and for which they have the sanction of Mr. Biddle, the late President of the United States Bank ; but it is quite clear that, upon this prin ciple, America must be totally ruined as a commercial nation. In this way it is easy enough to avoid the in convenience of making good to foreigners a balance of trade established against her, though it is not quite so easy to obtain further credit. Mr. D. Webster's puff in favour of the State securities will have but little effect now. HERALD. —We regret to learn that three com mercial failures have taken place to-day ; one of the parties are connected with Lloyd's, as brokers, and one in the East India trade. There has been more disposition manifested on the part of the public to-day to make investments in the British Securities, particularly tha heavier annuities ; and there is no doubt that the discredit which has fallen on the United States Securities, and the difficulty of realising them in this market will tend to turn the tide of spare o r unemployed British capit a l t owar d s British Securitie s , which, under any national calamity, have never, as it were, been annihilated by a refusal to pay the dividends. This cannot be wondered at when x e consider that the American paper debt cannot be much less than 140,000,000 dollars. DAVIS' STRAITS FISHERY. The intelligent Esquimaux, whom Captain Penny of the Neptune has brought from Davis Straits this sea• son, has disclosed some geographical information which promises to exercise a most important influence on the future prospects of the Davis' Straits whale fishery. Under present circumstances, the fishery may be said to be at an end. But no one who is in the smallest degree acquainted with its past history, and can in any way ap preciate its vast advantages, will hesitate for a moment to aid in the carrying out of any measures which shall seem calculated to restore it, if not to its original im portance, at least to a degree of prosperity which would be of immense benefit to the nation. In 1836, we published, on the suggestion of an intel ligent shipowner, " a plan for rendering the whale fishery more profitable, safe, and agreeable." The plan was simply " to establish a settlement of active and enterprising whale-fishers on some favourable spot in the vicinity of Davis' Straits, and to employ only so many large vessels as may be necessary to carry out provisions to the colony, and fetch home the oil, blubber, whale bone, and other articles which may be thought worth importing." The practibility of this plan we also de monstrated from the work of Captain Scoresby, the writings of Parry, Fisher, and Ross. The greatest difficulty was to find out the most eligible position for the settlement. After the fullest investigation, we came to the conclusion that Ponds Bay, or somewhere be tween that and Lancaster Sound, on the west coast of Baffin's Bay, would answer all the purposes contem plated. We objected to Prince Regent's Bay on the ground that, of late years, the whales have been most plentiful towards the west coast. This remark applies more particularly to the fishings of 1838-9 ; and Cap tain Penny states, that when he got as far west as Cape Serle, the whales, though plentiful, became exceedingly wild, and darted up Cumberland Straits with a uni formity of direction which led him to think that there must be some place of common resort in that quarter. When lying at Durban Harbour, by Cape Serle, in lat. 67. L, long. 62. 20., he discovered that the Esqui maux he has now on board possessed very extensive knowledge of the geography of the country, and from the willingness he showed to communicate whatever in formation was asked, the following facts were elicited. 1. That there is a bay which opens from the east side of Cumberland Straits, about 60 miles round Cape Easterly, in lat. 64. 55., and extends to the N.E. for about 140 miles, opening up to a breadth, in some places of sixty miles, and terminating in a point on the north-west side. This frith is bounded on the north by an extensive range of mountains ; on the south-west by a flat level country ; and on the north-east by bold and jutting headlands. An arm of the bay penetrates a long way into the land from the north-east extremity, and is separated from Kangrana, an arm of the ocean on the other side, near Cape Serle, by an isthmus of about thirty miles in length. This isthmus contains several lakes, in which are abundance of excellent sal mon. There is a good deal of floating ice in the bay ; but the tides are easy, and in June and July the ice breaks up and goes out to sea. The bay contains abundance of whales of all kinds, and on the west side there are four bights or inlets, measuring about fifteen miles into the mainland, by five or six miles broad. These are full of whales, one of them mostly of white whales. 2. Thousands of Esquimaux are located on the south-west side, in separate tribes, whose chief subsis tence is on whales. They are particularly fond of young whales, and generally manage to secure as man)' in the breeding season as possible. They kill, or rather catch, the whales during June, July, and August, and generally provide themselves with a good supply for the winter months. They are exceedingly agreeable with each other, and not at all of a quarrelsome dispo sition. 3. The climate appears to be more mild than it is in any other district on the west side ; and no danger is ever apprehended from floods occasioned by the melting of the snow on the mountains in the warm season. 4. During all the time this Esquimaux. or " Bobbie," as he is familarly called, residing among these tribes, he never sawn vessel in the bay, and is decidedly of opinion that there never were any British or foreign fishing vessels in that quarter. Some of the tribes go down the Cumberland Straits and traffic with the Hudson Bay Company, but it does not appear that any of the agents of that company have ever traced out the bay in question. Several tribes have now found the way across by the isthmus, already noticed, to Cape Serle. In this way Bobbie came over in 1837, and fell in with several of the Straits' vessels. From these facts, then, it is plain that a British settle ment might be advantagously established at Davis' S traits, and we think enough has already been elicited from this Esquimaux t o ren d er hi s e d ucat i on a matter o f great importance. Captain Penny has sketched out a chart of the new fishing-ground, and it is impossible to observe the Esquimanx going over it along with the captain, and not feel convinced that his acquaintance with the country is most extensive and minute, 'and that his information may be strictly relied on.—Aberdeen Journal. ENGLISH PRISONERS IN FRANCE.-There are at this moment in the debtors' prison in the Rue de Clichy, several Englishmen confined for ten years for debts of a few thousand francs, who for ten years pre viously, perhaps, had spent in the capital fifty tines the amount for which they are now incarcerated. i n One else the prisoner had for fifteen years spent nearly 800/. per annum ; and the bank in England in which his property was invested failing, he was unable to pay a debt of about 6,000 francs, for which he is excluded from society for ten years, although a friend came for ward and offered to pay half the amount, the d e bt or promising to pay the other h a lf by instalm en t s w i t hi n a space of three years. The m os t atrocious cruelties are perpetrated under this law, and yet the brawlers for liberty do not think it worth their while to bestir them selves for a reform of the commercial code, either on the ground of expediency or equity.—Letter front Paris. VAN,AMBURGII.—Great fears are entertained in Paris that the leg wounded by the lion will have to undergo amputation. He was on Sunday in a very precarious state. SUN.--Some uneasiness was experienced among tl e commercial classes in the City this afternoon, by the cur rency given to rumours of failures, which were ascer tained late in the day to be partially correct. The re cent high rate of interest payable for discounts, added to the heavy demand for goods for the export trade, have, it is known, pressed severely in many quarters. The two failures which have taken place today are not of leading importance, and it is hoped that they will not, be fol lowed by others of a more serious nature.

If the Chartist power remain what it is, and the power of the Irish priesthood what it has been, both those great benefits must be obtained by the surrender of the British monarchy, and by the breaking up of political society. The swollen despotism of the Popish priesthood is the growth of the last eight or nine years —that is, of the Whig-Radical reign over these realms. The amazing insolence and dreadful ferocity of the Chartists have the same origin—viz., the direct en couragement afforded them by the Whig-Radical Ministers, whose exclusive support in Great Brite;, n is democracy, as it is Popery in Ireland.. We can assure Lord John Russell that this subject shall not sleep while he has an official blanks t wherewith to cover him. We can assure that oble Lord that the device of shifting his malpractiee, f rom the Home-office to the Colonial-office—frrem White hall h street: has sha so riv l l llnotex :l e y rjaprned on the t him from former of these theatres of crim e. ea Lord Normanby— we say it with every consid':ration fo r hi s M arqw i sate t h h a e l retribution D °w a h which g. —but Lord Normanby is too small fry to merit any very serious or continuous efforts for his overthrow. is one of those empty unballasted vessels which require no hostile cannonade to sink them. The first seii;all will capsize him ; the element in which he moves wilit of itself suffice for his destruction. His master, her ever, who ruled the Home Department while the slte",,, minded Marquis played Viceroy of Baretaria, at", w h o probably impelled him in the lawless and r,:tnt'us coarse of his Irish absurdities —the master, w'e as.y, of Lord Normanby---Lord John Russell, will take the scourge before he cries for mercy. We 'nave not the smallest hesitation in declaring that Lord John Russell, more than any member of the Ministry, deserves to be impeached. He has caused or connived at mere flagrant offences than any of his colleagues. He was not merely the admitted organ of the Cabinet in the House of Commons, but he mismanaged that section of the Government which was the centre and &sits of all the iniquities which disgraced that Government;tred which oppressed the country. The Home Minister in a bad Administration has more corruption at his cote_ maid, and more fatal wickedness for which to answer, than all his colleagues in all other departments of the State. Where it is the system of a Government to rule through the instrumentality of a faction, and for the interests of a faction, the Home Minister is at all times the friend on duty. He has the whole game in his hand. He makes the Magistracy —that is, he selects the depositaries of power, as in the case of Mr. John Frost, and by his delegate, the Lord Lieutenant of Ire land, he packs the Irish Bench of Islagistraties also, as in the case of Mr. Daniel O'Connell. He pardons those whom the law condemns ; he persecutes those whom the law acquits ; he promotes and exalts ; he excludes and subjugates. He has the entire ma chinery of despotism in his hands ; for it is he in whom is mainly vested the administration of justice. We tell Lord John, therefore, in the face of his countrymen and ours, that he has exercised his vast powers in palpable violation of the purposes for which they were given ; that he has not so constituted the Magistracy, or so administered justice, as to main tain the integrity of the Bench,kor to serve any other ends than those of faction ; that be has thus helped to put down the law, by degrading it, through its Ministers, in the eyes of the nation, and has so far poisoned the first element of the social compact—each and all of which proceedings hear upon them the deepest dye of guilt, political and moral. We are hound therefore, in conclusion, to tell the Noble Lord, that if there be virtue in Parliament, or spirit in the people of England, he will have to stand his trial, on the prosecution of the Commons, before the House of Peers. We said, the subject of the countenance, direct and indirect, bestowed upon these Chartist rebels by the Queen's Ministers, should not be let sleep, and it shall not. Listen to some of the facts connected with this matter. Before last September the county of Glamor ' gan had been grievously disturbed by the machinations of the conspirators. From certain information which the Magistrates of the district had obtained, it appeared that arms had been sold extensively at Newbridkie, and that the tin workmen were in the habit of practising with ball on the hills, and even in the streets of that town. It was, therefore, thought necessary to memo rialize the Lord Lieutenant of the county. A letter was, therefore, addressed to that Noblemaithaving the signatures of three Magistrates, Messrs. R.., 8., and W. The Noble Lord was then on a visit at Widmer Castle. Shortly afterwards, the Magja trates received a communication from the Lord- Lieutenant, together with the circular of Lord . J. Russell, published in the preceding spring, by way of answer to, or comment on, their de scription of the state of the country, dated in or before September. Now here, if nowhere else, is proof that the Melbourne Government was fully aware of the proceedings and schemes of the Chartists many weeks before the insurrection broke out at Newport. Yet how were they prepared to meet it. ? One company of men. And if they answer us, " Well, but one company was sufficient, for half a company well com manded put the rebellion down, so far as Newport was concerned"—then, if you deem that an adequate force was then, at the time of the Newport outbreak, so tinned in that country, why have you ever since beeva marching troops thither to the amount of 1,000 or ; 1,200 men ? It is plain, that either the presce j e efforts are superfluous, or that there was previously,' the most enormous neglect in the head of the Home s De partment. But the affair of Chartism is not, 17 2 fear, yet over. (From the Morning Chronicle.) A Morning Contemporary, not ashamed to play second fiddle to the Tunes, has written aik article of some length, in which there are almost as - many blun ders as lines, for the purpose of showing t},at the tem porary fourpenny rate is not " the sensiFle determina tion" which it described on the 14th ultir no. The Post now aims to prove that the uniform fourpenny rate is an injustice, because it affords no redu etion of postage in the case of the existing fourpenny ane.t twopenny rates, It bewails this injustice as inflicted upon " large and populous tracts of country, of the average width of five miles, which form the circumference of a circle surrounding, at a distance of seventeen or eighteen miles, London and other great towns."—" Many of th.e principal commercial towns of England, and espec;.ally in the north, are situated, with respect to other great commercial towns of eqaal, or nearly equal., import ance, within that range of from fifteen to twenty miles distance, against which the Treasury Minute pronounces a sentence of proscription,, virtually ex cluding them, with respect to the bulk of their episto lary correspondence, from any participation in the be nefit the measure professes to confer upon the commu nity at large." Now, it happens unfortunately for the Post's accuracy, that these "seventeen or eighteen miles" and "twenty miles" places are not fourpenny posts, but fi'vepenny posts. He insists, tyrant as, be is with mat ters of tact, upon Enfield and Esher being fourpenny posts, in spite of the Post-office Directory showing the first to be a threepenny, and the second a firepenny one. If he will take the trouble to consult the Post office map, he will find that the "extensive and im portant districts surrounding London," excluded, as he says, from this benefit, are of the astonishing number of four ; the important districts of Waltgulln- Cross, Edgware, Romford, and Stanmore, tiGse average weekly correspondence of single, that is, fourpenny letters, amounts to the enormous , number of about 1,700. Of this number about., 35 (according to the usual average) will be turned if , a , o eightpenny letters, whilst on the other band, of the dor, W A touchingent, in tended as an experiment touching the in.cre ase of lAt ers; and trebl e l etters, a b out 7 0 e i g h tpenny letters Iv'tl b e 1 turned into f o u r p enn y ones , an d a b ou t 30 shillinf letters into eightp enny ones .
