THE SUN, LONDON, FRI_DA V _EVENING, OCTOBER 17, 1845. MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS. CITY, QUA TER TO THREE. The sales of Cotton at Liverpool yesterday wtre 3,000 bags, with a quiet but steady market, and prices of all kinds were without change; 100 Pernam sold at 5%d. to ; 150 Egyptian at 7 1 Ad. to 8%d.; 300 Surat at 3d. to 3%0.; and the rest American.—There has been a good busi ness doing in Shares, and prices were higher. • The notice winch was issued yesterday from the Bank of England, for raising the rate of discount from 2% to 3 per cent., has keen toe subject of earnest conversation in all lending circles here. The policy of the measure, independently ofconsii'erations of the profits of the Corporation, is he'd by all practical men to be beyond question. That it will operate as a check to the concoction of wild railway projects, and keep bona fide concerns in a much more satisfactory position than heretofore there is no donbt. The only matter of surprise is that the step was not much sooner taken, as the trade of the country has been increasing in a most satisfactory way for some time past, and, as a matter of course, the amount of capital required fir operations in produce, colonial as well as foreign, is much increased. With respect to the heavy condition of the Funds in the last few days, it should be noted that the reaction in the prices is more to be attributed to the really alarming state ments that are daily received of the failure of the potato crops in almost all parts of the United Kingdom, and the prospect that large supplies of foreign Wheat and Flo - ur will be re quired to make up the deficiency here in the crops of Grain and Potatoes. Now is the time, in the opinion 4.f all those who desire our foreign trade to be extended, for Sir Robert Peel to come forward, and issue an order in Council for the admission of foreign Corn, if not free, at least at a nominal duty. By such a course the millions would be pleased, and a bold step taken to reduce hereeter the taxes on the staff of life, from which the monopolists would here after find it impossible to induce him to recede. That the Funded Debt would be improved by such a measure is held to be a certainty. The public securities have receded this morning, especially Consols for Money, which have been sold as low as 97 1 4, having opened at 97% %. For the Account the decline was from 98 to 97%. Prices have rallied since i 4 per cent. Ex chequer Bills are also considerably lower, having been sold freely at 425. premium, but they are now worth 465. premium. The Three per Cent. ReduCed dropped from 96% to 96 1 4, and Bank Stock from 207 to 205. There is not a great deal of speculative business going on. The prices of most of the Foreign stocks are lower. The Five-per-Cents. Brazilian have been sold at 82 and at 83; Danish at 87; Mexican at 32%; Portuguese at 60; Spanish at 37% %; the Belgian Two-and-a-Half per Cents. at 59%; and the Four. and-a- Half per Cents. at par. The Railway Share-market has been pretty tirm this morn ing, all things considered, and a full amount of business has been tram acted. The official list will furnish the extent of the variation.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.) CORN EXCHAN GE.-FRID AY. During the present week, the arrivals of English Wheat coastwise have been moderately good. viz., 5,040 quarters; but by land carriage and sample, very little has come fresh to hand. The stands being fairly filled, and the. accounts from the North respecting the proge•.s of harvest work more favourable, the demand for all descriptions of 'Wheat of home produce was inactive, and Monday's quotations were with difficulty supported. In foreign Wheat very little business was transacted, at unaltered figures. The little new Barley here has gone off on much the same terms. We continue to have a fair retail demand for the best old Malt. In other kinds very little doing. The show of Oats was good, yet the demand was steady at full prices. Beans, Peas, and Flour as last quoted. ARRIVALS. Wheat. Barley. 5,040 qrs. 1,150 qrs.

There were 50 Oxen and Cows, 60 Sheep, and 4 Calves per steamers from Holland. Although the numbers of Sheep were small, the inquiry for them was in a sluggish state, at barely stationary prices. In Calves a fair average amount of business was transacted, and some superior breeds realised 5s per 81bs. The Pork trade was steady, at our quotations.

THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.--The Prussian Government has determined to apply an electric telegraph t the line from Berlin to Cologne. It will be established be ween Berlin and Potsdam before the end of the year. STATE OF TRADE.—There was a considerable change in the state of the yarn market yesterday ; the animation which prevailed a few days ago !laving entirely subsided, in consequence of the sudden cessation of pur chases for the German markets. We uuderstand that this cessation has been cat's -, (1 by the announcement (which ap peared in the Guardian of Saturday) that the Congress of the Zollverein had brought its deliberations to a close with out imposing any additional duty on cotton twist. Down to a very recent period, a strong impres,ion prevailed that the present duty would be very considerably increased at the commencement of the year, a:.d large contracts had con sequently been made for yarns, to be delivered at such periods as would enable the shippers to enter them within the limits of the Zollverein before the Ist of January. As it is now obvious that no advantage will be gained by this course, the Germans have for a time discontinued their operations. The spinners, however, are so generallY.engaged for some weeks to come, that this pause in the .demand has had no sensible effect upon prices. The goods market remains in the same state as last week, the demand being moderate, and prices in seine cases a little easier.—Manchester Guardian. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, OCT 13. —We have had a fair average market to-day, at prices similar to those of the preceding week.

JOURNEYMEN CARPENTERS' BENEVOLENT INSTI TION.—Last evening the sixth annual meeting of the mem bers and supporters of this charity, which is formed for th e relief of aged and infirm journeymen carpente rs and the erection of an asylums for carpenters, their waves, and widows, was held at the Bell , O ld Bailer, Mr. Mun yard , carpenter ' and builder, in the c hair. Mr. Weed, hon orary secretary, read the report, whic h was very satisfactory, and stated th a t Messrs. Grissell and Peto, Baker, Hicks, Law, Cubitt, Holt zafelle Webb, and other em p lo y ers, a pp r oved of and sup ported' the institution. Th e members recko ned 200 journey men, and the Comm ittee ex p ected, that of 16,000 journeymen, who compose the trade of the metropolis, at least 1,000 would be shortly. enrolled, and aid them in bringing into operation the original intention of the institution,• which was to allow 12s. a week to the aged and infirm, and the erection of an asylum for those who preferred being its inmates to that of recipients of out-door relief. The receipts, including 661. 16s. 6d., the result of a benefit at the Surrey Th eatre , amounted to 267/. 17s. Bd. The report was adopted, and the officers for the ensuing year elected, aft er w hi c h the meeting broke up. With respect to the payment of the railway deposits into Chancery in February next, it is essential to correct a fallacy that has been found very prevalent. Bratty of the public entertain the notion that Exchequer-bills and stock may be brought into play in lieu of bank notes. On this it is simply to be remarked, that stock and bills are property and not money, that they re p resent past savings, and are not ap plicable to future outlays more than land or houses. The substitution of them may indeed stave off the evil for the moment, but it will not effectually cure it. Sooner or later the amount must be paid in money, or the projects must be abandoned.—Times . THE LATE FATAL ACCIDENT IN THE ROYAL ARSENAL.—In consequence of the fearful results of the late fatal accident, the authorities seem determined to use every effort to guard against the possibility of an event of a similar nature occurring in - the. royal laboratory department.

William Evans, of West Ham, omnibus proprietor, applied this morning for his interim order. Mr. Cooke opposed him for two creditors, Mr. Blagden and Mr. Israel Alexander, the well-known coach proprietor. The insolvent, in examination, admitted that he' had paid a large amount for law expences and fines, and since the filing of his petition, had paid 5/. at Guildhall, which he had borrowed of his friends. The debts in his schedule were 272/., he also owed 30/. for ditty; he had omitted to put that down, as it was owing from 1840, when he disposed of his busine. , ,s to Mr. Alexander. Mr. Cooke submitted that it made the debts over 3001, and that the petition must be dismissed. The Court concurred, and immediately dismissed the peti tion. DREADFUL AND FATAL ACCIDENT ON TIIE GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—(THIS MORNING.)—We have to an nounce another of those frigittful accidents which of late has been so frequent upon our different railways, attended, we regret to say. with loss of life to the unfortunate engineer. It appears from inquiries made, that the up-train left Pad dington at eight o'clock, and reached the West Drayton station at half-past eight : here a quantity of luggage was taken in and some passengers. Immediately after the departure of the train, a more than usual quantity of steam was put on, the train being some minutes behind the usual time. The engineer, George Vasey, was about to decrease the power, when the funnel of the boiler exploded, the fragments of which flew in every direc tion, with one amazing and fearful discharge of steam. The unfortunate Vasey was struck by some of the pieces of the funnel, which, combined with the overpowering quantity of steam, threw the poor fellow off the engine on to the train rail. The engine was stopped, however, by the' men, on the instant of the accident taking place, which prevented him being cut to pieces after failing. On being taken up, the unhappy man presented a shock ing spectacle ; he was blackened and scorched, and the trout of his skull was mutilated in the most skocking manner by the part of the funnel which struck against him. He was alive when taken up, but expired before reaching the West Drayton station. The greatest excitement pre veiled in consequence of the number of passengers in the train, but the catastrophe was confined to the melancholy death of the unfortunate engineer, upon whom an inquest will be held. The accident is attributed to the quantity of steam incauti ously put on. THE GERMAN HOSPITAL AT DALSTON.—On Wed nesilay the hospital established by voluntary contributions at Dalston, near London, for the admission and relief of sick and diseased natives of Germany and other persons speaking the German language, was opened under the auspices of his Royal Highness Prince George of Cambridge, as. the repre sentative of his father, the Duke of Cambridge, the president of the institution, who is now absent on the continent. The institution originated at a public meeting held in June last at the London Tavern, and so rapidly have the benevolent in tentions of its founders been carried into effect, that a suitable building has already been procured and converted into a commodious and completely furnished establishment, com bining the advantages of an hospital and sanatorium. The establishment comprises a committee-room, two female wards, apartments for a resident physician and house-surgeon, dis pensing surgeon, assistant secretary, matron and nurses, six sanatory rooms for persons of a superior class who are able to pay fur their accommodation ; two men's wards, bathing rooms, a chapel, dispensary, and all the customary offices. It is capable of accommodating thirty-two or thirty-four in patients. EUTERPEON SOCIETY.—The members of this choral Society gave a grand concert last evening at the City Lecture Theatre, Milton-street, Fore-street, in two parts; the first, consisting of selections from Rayon's oratorio, The Creation; and the second a miscellaneous selection from some of the best authors. The Misses Turner, Miss Chambers, Mr. Field, Master Field, and Mr. F. Smith were the professionals engaged, and acquitted themselves in a praiseworthy manner. Mr. W. Blagrove was the leader, and Mr. Holdernesse the conductor. The numerous and respectable audience fre quently testified their approval of the exertions of the So ciety, and separated seemingly gratified with the evening's entertainment. DEATII OF A RELAPSED TEETOTALLER.—Yester day Mr. Baker held an inquest at the Cumberland Head, City-road, on the body of William Sawyer, aged 45 years, who was found lying in the street on the morning of Mon day last. Police-constable G 226, deposed that about half past five o'clock on Monday morning, he saw deceased lying on the pavement in Cowper-street, St. Luke's, in a state of intoxication, but sensible. He inquired of him where he lived, and was told by deceased at 49 in that street. Wit. ness knocked at the door, and was told by a person from the first-floor window that the man bad lodged there, but had left some time.. Witness conveyed him to the station-house, where he remained until the evening, when he was- taken to St. Luke's workhouse. John Smith Bacon, master of the workhouse, stated that when deceased was admitted he was in a horribly filthy state—his clothes, which were only rags, had completely oaten into his flesh from blood and dirt. He was clean: ed and placed in a warm bed, but died in the course of the night. On examining his rags subsequently, and which were obliged to be cut to pieces for the purpose, two sovei signs and a half in gold, 16s. in silver and copper, with a silver watch and guard, were found embedded in the filth in which the clothes were enveloped. Mr. Courtney, surgeon, said he had made a post moriem examination— found excessive disease of the liver, arising from excessive and habitual drinking—the coats of the stomach were in flamed. Witness attributed death to these causes. Ver diet—" Natural Death, accelerated by excessive drinking." Deceased was most respectably connected, and had resided at Red- hill, near Reigate. He had been some time a teetotaller, but had relapsed into bis former vicious and intemperate otturges. • NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. THE YELLOW FEVER AT STAXGATE CREEK.— Dr. Rogers (of the Ocean) is convalescent, and no new cases have ap peared since he was attacked, and it is hoped now that the disease i 3 at an end. Mr. Heath, the assistant-surgeon of the Dwarf, as we have before stated, was put on board the Revenge on Sunday. The services of no other medical officer has been required, though the assistant-surgeons of the Raven cutter and the Formidable, 84, were held in readi ness to proceed on board if necessary. COURT MARTIAL ON A LIEUTENANT OF THE SUPERB.— The Court-martial on Lieutenant Lindsay P. Burrell (1840), on the charge of having been found asleep on his watch - in the passage of the Superb, 80, from Portsmouth, was held yesterday, on board the Caledonia, 120, Captain Manley Hall Dixon. The charge was preferred by Captain Corry, of the Superb. Rear-Admiral Sir Samuel Pym was president . - THE SURVEYOR'S INvALrn.—Tbe Vanguard, 80, Captain G. W. Willes, went into Portsmouth harbour under sail on Wednesday, and Went alongside the Victorious hulk, into which vessel the officers and ship's company were moved. On Thursday she was brought into the Angle dock, all stand ing and with sails bent, the Harlequin, 16, having been moved out to make room for her. The same arrangements have been made to expedite her refit as were made when the Superb was last docked. As soon as the water had receded a little from the dock, and the ship was shore up, 124 ship wrights were placed round her to strip off her copper, which was nearly accomplished at five PM. The men will work extra hours taskwork, and no doubt the Vanguard will be ready to leave the dock on Saturday next. The copper was foul, and some considerable quantity of grass was growing in patches. The copper was very much ruffled, and ap peared worn thin in some places. On the starboard side, under the forechains, the nails for a considerable distance along the lower edge of the second sheets of copper had been all drawn out, which we imagine must have been occasioned by the straining of the ship in this particular part. 'We hear that the excessive rolling of this ship is most awful: it is said her channels were continua:ly in the water. The hatchway gnat d stanchions have nearly all been carried away, from the seamen holding on them to save themselves when the ship ens last at sea. ROYAL MARINES.—Messrs. John Tunstall Haverfield and John Sangster, whose appointments as cadets we gave a few weeks since, and who were considered by Lord lladdington to have strung claims to the preference of the Admiralty, have been appointed second lieutenants in the Royal Marine corps, the former to the Plymouth division, and the latter to the Chatham division. Commissions dated the 14th inst. Mr. Jonathan Ay]en (1823), master, late of the Hastings, 72, and the Victory, 104, has been appointed to command the ' Alban, steam-transport, vice Lieut. Lowe. The officers and men ou leave from the Vanguard, 80. Captain \S flies, when that ship left Devenport for Ports mouth, were sent to the latter port yesterday in the Confi ance, steam-tug. TRIAL OF ANCHORS.—The Comet, steam•vessel, Lieut. Commander Prettyman, ou Wednesday towed over to Ryde two dock-yard anchor lumps, containing anchors of Mr. Porter and the Admiralty, to be further tested on Ryde sands. On Monday and Tuesday last these anchors were tried on the mud otf the Clarence-yard, when, we under stand, Mr. Porter's anchors had some advantage. Captain Moubray, of the Victory, 104 ; Mr. Brown, Master-Attend ant, arid the Master of the Victory, Mr. Flinn, are the offi cers ordered to report on the respective merits of these anchors.

BAN K., OF ENGLAND.—The following notice, issued yesterday by the Directors of the Bank of England, shows that the long-anticipated movement has taken place: — "'Bank of Engl and, Oct. 16, 1F45. " At a Court of Directors, held this day, resolved-- "That the minimum rate of interest on London bills and notes, discounted at the Bank of England, be per cent, such bills and notes not having more than 95 days to run." Among the monied interest this step meets general approval. For some time money has been in sufficient demand to enable the capitalists to make greater profit in the employment of it, had not the low rate fixed by the Bank of England proved an obstacle. It is supposed by many that tly: rise in the interest of money will not 5-top at this point, on the ground that the Bank lately limited their ptriod of accommodation to one month, and that thin month has not yet expired.— rine*. HOP GROWING IN NOTTINHA AISIIIRE.—The last six Years growing in the North Clay district has been a losing Concern to the growers. The management cf a hep-yard is 90/. per acre; and the average during" that period has I.ct, been quite 3 cwt. per acre. The. consequence i s that the planters are beginnirg to adapt their hop grounds to other and more profitable purposes, so that in a few Seas h o p_ growing in Nottinghamshire will become a raatter of history. —Xottinghant Review.

SUGAR.—To-day West India Sugar was purchased with caution for all purposes, and only 370 hhds. &c., were dis posed of. but merchants for the most part remain firm.

REFINED.—To-day G4s to to 64s Gd were the rates taken for brown grocery lump, and 65s to 65s 6d per cwt for statalaid lumps, but at these rates several purchases were made by the home trade. Bonded Crushed Sugar is offered at 37s f'or first quality. Maumaaus—lmporters have been less inclined to realize this week, and supply the market sparingly, especially wito the better descriptions; some packets have been disposed of w Pr t!r y l a , t e lY bi n f.e o r n y fo lov r % ns , er terms ; at, aucti o n 445 bags 6 casks 37s 6(.1, good middlint g l , ark brown at 355. low ditto 36..

Font:Km—The purchases made in yellow Havannah have been extremely limited by priya , e treaty, although there are sellers at rather lower rates, but any material decline is still prevented by holders supplying the market scantily ; large parcels, however, could only be disposed but at mu c h lower rates. White and brown Brazil have been purchased with caution by exporters, and our refiners working under bond, are not inclined to ope rate, although there are sel era at a further reduction in prices. Porto Rico is dull of sale, and Cuba Muscovado is offered at 23s 6d to 26s pet cwt, still few buyers are to be met with. The stock of Foreign has been further increased, and the tendency of prices is still downward for all descriptions.

Mocha met with little attention, and 213 bales 37 half-bales at auction were only in part sold, at easier prices. TEA.—lmporters of Green have been desirous to realise this week, and submitted to reduced rates for all descriptions , There has been a large quantity brought forward, far exceed ing the wants of the trade, who are not disposed to take more than their immediate wants require, notwithstanding the moderate rates that prevail.

MEMOIR of JOHN AUBREY, F.R.S., embraring his Auto-h , ographicul Sketches, and an Account of his Works. By John Britton, F.S.A. About four years since several noblemen and gentle men 3f Wiltshire established the Wiltshire Topographi cal Society. The object of this Society is to illustrate the history of the county of Wilts, by publishing his torical and descriptive accounts of places and things in the county, and biographical memoirs of celebrated men natives of Wiltshire. To the institution of this Satiety we are indebted fer the publication of the very inte resting memoir now before us, which rescues fi om the obloquy which has been most uncleservedly thrown upon it the memory of a man who was an honour to his coun try, and who was far in advance of the age in which he flourished (from 1626 to 1697). Unfortunatel;, how ever, for Aubrey's fame, he became acquainted with Anthony a Wood, whom he permitted to have access to his manuscripts. Anthony a Wood having in the most barefaced manner plundered Aubrey, having cut out 44 pages bodily from Aubrey's lives of eminent men, and appropriated them as his own, turned round upon his benefactor, and actually had the impudence to brand him whom he had plundered as " a pretender to antiqui ties,a shiftless person, roving and maggottie-headed, sometimes little better than crazed. The only pub lished work at this time of Aubrey's was his miscella nies, in which he had been at pains to collect all sorts of ghost stories and tales of witchcraft, and in which he avowed his belief in judicial astrology—a belief which lie held in common with Dryden. Clarendon, the witty Duke of Buckingham, King Charles 1., and other eminent men, his contemporaries. As Aubrey, in con sequence of this publication, has become the classical authority on this matter, and as all subsequent authors, when treating on the subject, have quoted from him, his name has become inseparably connected with the follies of that pseudo-science, and posterity treated him as the crazed and " maggottie-headed," being that Anthony a Wood maliciously represents him to have been, solely because he believed in that which was the prevailing faith of his time, without taking the pains to inquire into the real character of the man as developed in his mann scripts still existing in the Ashmolean Museum, and which prove him, on many points, to have been far in advance of his age. "He may be regarded," says Mr. Britton, " essentially an archeologist, and the first person in this country who fairly deserved that name Historians, chroniclers, and topo graphers there had been before his time, but he was the first who devoted his studies and abilities to archeology in its various ramifications of architecture, genealogy, paleogra phy, numismatics, heraldry, &c. No one before him investi gated or understood any thing of the vast Celtic temple at Avebury, and other monuments of the same class; and cer tainly no person had preceded him in attempting to distin guish the successive changes in style and decoration of ancient ecclesiastical edifices, or to ascertain, by observing architectural feature» and details, to what era any particular building belonged." His great work on this subject is his " Monumenta Britannica," abridgments of which are in the Bodleian Library, at Stourheacl in Wilts, and in Mr. Britton's collection. The original, however, although known to have been in existence as late as 1819, in four folio vo lumes, of 100 pages each, is now nowhere to be found. It was then in the library of W. Churchill, Esq., of flenbury. To Aubrey also is due the honour of having first demonstrated that Stonehenge was a Druidical mo nument, in opposition to the opinion of Inigo Jones, by whom it was considered as a Roman work. In 'early life Aubrey, was a member of Harrington's celebrated Rota Club. He was one of the original members of the Royal Society, and the intimate friend and associate of Hobbes of Mulmesbury (of whom he wrote a most interesting biographical memoir), Hooke, and Sir W. Petty, and Evelyn. It is not probably that these men would have admitted into their intimacy " a maggottie-headed man nearly crazed." But Aubrey had offended the clergy of the University of Oxford by a manuscript treatise, entitled " Idea of Education of Young Gentlemen from Nine to Eighteen," which is still in existence in the Ashmolean Museum, in which he not only utterly condemns the beastly practice of flogging, but proposes that " the education of young gentlemen should be better conducted and snore inde pendently of the priesthood than in any academy or college then extant" Are we not justified in saying that Aubrey was in advance of his age. Here is the very theme of priestless education so recently proposed by the Government. But Aubrey foresaw that the bigots would be too strong for him, for he thus concludes his sf ay:—"But now, methinks, I see a black squadron, led up by a crosier s t a ff, (D r . John Fell, Bishop of Oxford), !marching from Oxford to discomfite this pretty little flock, and so this my pleasing dream is at an end— Soli I)eo Glotia." The scheme itself is excellent —there is one point of it, however, which may create a smile. He recommends the study of astrology "as the best guide to direct us to what professions or callings children are by nature most fit or most inclined to ;" but if the reader will have the goodness to substitute for astrology, phrenology,or any other oiogy which may be most in fashi on, as teaching what astrology then professed to teach, he may perhaps feel inclined to be merciful to poor Aubrey. The follies of one age bear a marvellous resemblance to those of its predecessors—the names alone are changed. The " black squadron" of that day, however, were wiser in their generation than the black squadrons of the pre sent. They contented themselves with attacking the author as a crazy," maggottie-headed" man, without ven turing to attract attention to his plan by raising against it the cry of a " godless scheme of education." Had Aubrey lived in our day he would have been honoured and reverenced, and his name would have appeared as director of some score of joint , stock companies. lie was a most ingenious projector. Here are two of Ids schemes—l. " To get a patent to open the passage for to make it wider for shippes to come to Bristowe, also to blow up !he little island in the key at Bristol." A cen tury afterwards this was carried into effect, and the Bristol docks were formed. 2. "To put somebody upon the marrying the Thames and Avon, and to get a share in it." This has also since 'been done by the cutting of the Kennet and Avon Canal. We see it is the intention of the Topographical Society of Wiltshire to publish his Natural History of that county ; we shall look forward with great interest to the appearance of this very curious work. Mr. Britton has executed his labour of love—for it has evidently been' a labour of love with him—in a style which snakes this a model for future biographers of literary men. His research has been unwearied, and he has been enabled to enrich his memoir with several interesting literary anecdotes ; for instance, when speaking of Aubrey's MS., entitled, " Memoirs of Naturall Remarques in Wilts," he says— "ln chapter 17, which illustrates the grandeur of the Pembroke family, and describes their splendid seat at Wilton in the following passage, which is here quoted as a matter of curiosity, throwing a doubt (as it does) upon the authorship of one of the most celebrated verses of the seventeenth century: -- " Underneath this sable hearse Lies the subject of all verse, Sidney's sister—Pembroke's mother. Death, ere thou kill'st such another, Fair and wise, and learn'd as she, Time will throw a dart at thee.' " These verses were writ by Sir William Browne, who wrote the Pastoralls,' and they are inserted there. "The above lines are almost universally attributed to Ben Jonson ; it is, therefore, essential to observe that Aubrey is not alone in stating them to be by Browne, the author of the ‘Pastoralls; for, in his note upon the sulject, he left a blank for the latter's Christian name, William,' which was filled up by Evelyn, when he perused his manuscript. Indeed, Evelyn not only filled up such blank, but added, as a further note—' William, Governor to ye now Earl of Oxford.'" We are now reluctantly compelled to draw this notice to a close, but we cannot do so without offering our hearty congratulations to Mr. Britton on the triumphant manner in which he has vindicated the fame of one of Wiltshire's most worthy sons, and at the same time expressing a hope that other counties will follow the • example of Wiltshire, by instituting Topographical Societies for the illustration and preservation of those historical monuments which have been delivered to us by our forefathers in trust for posterity : I 'ae!d moat omitted to mention that the mem oir is place hya of his birth.port i raitofkubrey and a viewof Fasten Piers, the LETTERS OF JUNIUS.—The Inrerness Courier says, that Sir David Brewster, who is married to a daughter of the late James Macpherson, Esq., translator of " Ossian's l'oems,'• has discovered some letters among the papers of his fa' it t in-law which may lead to the discovery of a great seer:l— -dle authorship of " Junius." The person who, as Sir le,eie thinks, may be identified as the euthor, is Lachlan Maclean. the son of an Irish Presbyterian clergyman, but descended from the ancient Scottish family Of the Macleans of Coil. He was bred to the study of medicine, but became a political writer and adventurer in London, and rose to some eminence. He was once an Under-Secretary of State, in which capacity he might have become acquainted with State secrets. Having been sent out to India by Government in 1776. he was shipwrecked and drowned on the passage—a circum stance that may account for the non-revealment of the secret as to the authorship of " Junius." His papers were all lost at the same time.

EXTRAORDINARY HIGH sterdav after noon there was an unusually high tide. At Bankside, Lambeth, and Thamesebank, the wharfs and adjacent streets were flooded ; some poi thins of Battersea-fields were inun dated, mid al the meadows and pleasure-grounds on the Middlesex side, between Battersea and Putney-bridge, were some feet under water.. At the latter-mentioned bridge the Kew steam-boatS could not pass through, and were obliged to await the falling of the tide, much to the inconvenience of the passengers. At Wamiswerth the tide made free with the works of the Richmond Railway, en that side of the line that will pass over the osier-Inds. Here the tide U.SI about four feet, snseendcd all labour, and floated the timber about in admirable confusion.
