MARKET NEWS,-( TIT _IS CORN EXCHAN GE. - . MID AY. During the present week, the arrivals of English Wheat coastwise have been moderately good. viz., 5,0-10 quarters; but by land carriage and sample, very little has come fresh to baud. 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 or home, produce was inactive, and Monday's quotations were with difficulty supported. In foreig,n Wheat very little haziness was transacted, at unaltered figures. The I:ttle 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.

William Evans, of West Ilam, 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. Tha 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 51. at Guildhall, which he had borrowed of his friends. The debts in his schedule were 2721., he also owed 301. for dutv ; 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 THE GREAT WE,•TELN RAILWAY.—(Tms MORNING.)—We have to an nounce another of those frightful 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 ha!f-past eight :• here a quantity of luggage was taken in and some passengers. Immediately after the depatture of the train, a more than usual quantity of steam was put on, the train being some minutes behind th e usua l time. Th e ' 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 front of his skull was mutilated in the most skocking manner by the part of the funnel which struck against him. lie was alive when taken up, but expired before reaching the West Drayton station. The greatest excitement pre wailed 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. 'Re accident is attributed to the quantity of steam incauti ously put on.

THE ELECTRIC TELEGRAPH.' —The Prussian Government has determined to apply an electric telegraph t the line from Berlin t o C o l ogne . lt will be established be ween Berlin and Potsdam before the end of the year. STATE or TRADE.—There was a considerable change in the state of the yarn market yesterday ; the animation which prevailed a few days ago having entirely subsided, in consequence of the sudden cessation of pur chases for the German markets. We understand that this cessation has been caused 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 impression prevailed that the present duty would be very considerably increased at the commencement of the year, ai: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 sensibleeffect upon prices. The goods market remains in the same state as last week, the demand being moderate, and prices in some cases a little easier.—Menchester Guardian.

JOURNEYMEN CARPENTERS' BENEVOLENT INSTI• mer.—Last evening the sixth annual meeting of the mem bers and supporters of this charity, which 'is f ' ormed for the relief of aged and infirm journeymen carpenters and the erection of an asylums for carpenters, their wives, and widows, was held at the Bell, Old Bailer,, Mr. Munyard, carpenter sa actory, an d stated that _ and builder, in the cha ir. Mr. ‘l,oed, honorary secretary, read the report, which was ver y tief Messrs. Grissell and Pet o, Baker, Hicks, L aw, Cubitt Holt zafelle, Webb, and other employers, a p proved of and sup ported the institution. The members reckoned 200 journey men, and the Committee expected, that of 16,000 journeymen, who compose the trade of the metropolis, at l eas t 1 , 0 00 would be shortly enrolled, and aid th em in bringing into operation the original intention of the institution, which was to allow 12s. a week to the a g ed and infirm, and the erec ti on being its in ma t es to of an asylum for those who preferred receipts, i nc l u di ng that of recipients of out-door relief. 661. 16s. ed., the result of a benefit at the Surrey Theatre, amounted to 2671. 17s. Sd. The report was adopted, and the officers for the ensuing y ear elected, after which the meeting broke up. With respect to the payment of the railway deposit s into Chancery in February next, it is essential to correct a fallacy that has been fennel very prevalent. Many of the public entertain the notion that E xchequer -bills and stock may be brought into play in lieu of bards notes. On this it is simply to be remarked, that stock and bills are prop er t y an d not money, that they represent, 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 m -anent, 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. The manufacture of blank and ball cartridge, which has hitherto been carried on in sheds in the centre of the square attached to the royal laboratory department, has been removed to the extremity of the Arsenal, near the canal, and it is un derstood that the work of extracting the saltpetre from the fuses will also be carried on in this spot as soon as the neces sary. arrangements for that purpose can be made. The ppears to be to remove these some object of these changes a what dangerous occupations from those localities where a large quaeity i'f inflammable and czplosive compeends are necessarily deposited.

The Misses Turner, Miss Chamber., Mr. Field, Master Field, and Mr. P. Smith were the professionals engaged, and acquitted themselves in a praiseworthy manner. Mr. W.

The numerous and respectable audience fre quently testified their approval of the exertions of the So ciety, and separats - d seemingly gmatified with the evening's en tert ainm ent. DEATH 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 p:st five o'clock on Monday morning, he saw deceased lying en the pavement in Cowper-street, St. Lake's in a state of intoxication, but sensible. lie inquired of him where he lived, and was told by deceased at 49 in that street. Wit ness knocked at the door, and was tad by a person from the first-floor window that the man had lodged there, but had !eft some time. Witness conveyed him to the station-house, where he remained until the evening, when he was taken t o St. Luke's w or kh ouse . J o h n 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 eaten into his flesh from blood and dirt. He was clean! ed and placed in a warm bed, but died in the course df the night. On examining his rags subsequently, and which were obliged to be cut to pieces for the purpose, two sovereigns 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 inoron 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 catilibs. Ver dict—" 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 his former vicious and intemperate courses. ATTEMPT TO MURDER..--Between five and six o'clock on Wednesday night, a man named Fre lerick c.n renter, of Wood. street, Clapton, while passing a field near Temple-mills, Horner ton, observed a young man holding in his hand a loaded gun, cocked, pointing in the direction of the footpath. Field remonstrated with him upon his reckless conduct, when the man assailed him in a grossly violent manner. Field proceeded onwards about a dozen yards, and on turning round was alarmed to find the fellow aiming at hint. In an instant he discharged the gun, anti Field fell to the ground. In a few minutes he rose, and seized his assail.. ant ; a violent struggle timed, during which both fell into a ditch, Field bleeding profusely from the head. Fortunately Mr. Thompson, a publican, living in the Commercial -road, came up and secured the ruffian, who, with police assistance, was lodged in the station-house. He gave hiS name Philip Ernst., dyer, of Punderson-street, Be:hue-green. Mr. Garrod, divisional surgeon, attended Field, and pronounced bins to be oat of immediate danger. The contents of the gun entered part of the head and the right side, and inflicted a • A and a Lan' k uxit,rit. Ernst's friends visited at a late h our , b ut he evinced no remorse at his site a! ion. At ten o'clock Field was pronounced to be in a pre cut ious state. NAVAL INTELLIGENCE, THE YELLOW FEVER AT STANGATE 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 is 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 aesistant surgeons of the Raven cutter and the Formidahle, 84, were held in readi ness to proceed on board if necessary.

The charge was preferred by Captain Corry, of the Superb. Rear-Admiral Sir Samuel Pym was president, THE SURVEYOR'S lalatian.—The Vanguard, 80, Captain G. W. Willes, went into Portsmouth harbour under sail on Wednesday, and Went alongside the Victorious bulk, into which vessel tie 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 k 23 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 of her copper, which was nearly accomplished at five r.sa. The men will work extra hours tankwcrk, and no doubt the Vanguard will be ready to leave the dock en. Saturday next. The copper was foul, and some considerable quantly 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 cf this ship is most awful : it is said her channels were continua:ly iu tire water. The hatchway guard stanchions have nearly all been carried away, from the Earners holding on them to save themselves when the ship Was last at sea. ROYAL ManixEs.—Messrs. John Tunstall Has - erfield and Joke Sangster, whose appointments as cadets we gave a few weeks since, and who were considered by Lord Haddington to have strong claims to the preference of the Mil - drafty, 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 lust. Mr. Jonathan Aylen (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 on leave from the Vanguard, 80, Captain Willes, when that ship left Devenport fpr Ports mouth, were sent to the latter port yesterday in the Confi ance, steam-tug. TRIAL OF ANCHORS.—Tbe Comet, steam-vessel, Lieut. Commander Prettyman, on 'Wednesday towed over to Rvde two dock-yard anchor lump s , conta i n i ng anchors of M r. Porter and the Admiralty, to be further tested on Ryde sands. On Monday and Tuesday last these anchors were tried on the mud off the Clarence-yard, when, we under stand, Mr. Porter's anchors had some advantage. Captain Mnubrav, of the Victory, 104 ; Mr. Brown, Master-Attend ant, and the M as t er of V the Victory, Mr Flinn, are the offi cers ordered to report on the respective merits of these anchors. LITERATURE. MEMOIR rf JOHN AUBREY, F.R.S., emb,a r i ng his Au o biographical Sketches, and an Account of his Works. By Joan Britton, F. 5.4. About four years since several noblemen and gentle men of Wiltshire established the Wiltshire Topographi cal Society. The object of this Society i 7 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 man native's of Wiltshire. To the institution of this Society we are iralebted fer the publication of the very inte resting memoir now before us, which rescues from the obloquy which has been most undeservedly 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 floarished (from 1626 to 1697). Unfortunatelh, how ever, for Aubrey's fame, he became accpulinted with Anthony d whom he permitted to have access to his manuscripts. Anthony i Wood having in the most barelaced manner plundered Aubrey, having cut out 44 pages bodily from Aubrey's lives of eminent men, and appropriated them as his wan, tu rne d round upon his benefactor, noe l actually had the impudence to brand him whoa] he hel plundered as "a pretender to antiqui ties, a saiEless person, roving and rnaggottie-headed, sometimes little better than crazed." The only pub lished work rut 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 beli e f in judicial a s t ro l ogy — a b elief which he held in common with Dryden, Clarendon, the witty Duke of Buckingham, King Charles 1., and other eminent men, his contcmporeries. As Aubrey, in con sequence of this pablieation, has become the classical authority on this metter, a::d as all subsequent authors, when treating en 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 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 (lea, loped in his manti s 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, aeli the first person in this country who fairly deserved that name historians, chroniclers, and topo gTaphers 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 ; Wise numismatics, heraldry, Scc. No one before him investi ' gated or understood any thing of the vast Celtic temple at Avehury, and other monuments of the same class; and cer tainly no person had preceded him is attempting, to distin guish the succe.ssivc -change .s in style and decoration of ancient ecclesiastical edifices, or to ascertain, by observing architectural features and details, to what era any particular building belonged." His great work on this subject is his " Monumenta Britannica," abridernents of which are is the Bodleian Library, at Stourhead i n Wil ts, an d i n Mr. Britton's 1 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 Ilenbury. 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 eialmesbury (of whom he wrote a most interesting biographical memoir), Hooke, and Sir W. Petty, and Evelyn. It is not probable that these men would have admitted into their intimacy " a. maggottie-headed man neerly 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 more 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 scheme 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 esFay:—"But now, methinks, I see a black squadron, led up by a crosier staff, (Dr. 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 Gloni:s." 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 otherology which may be most in fashion, 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. He was a most ingenious projector. Here are two of his 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 the 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 clone 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 foi'rrard 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 mak e s thi s a mo d e l f or 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 Natural! 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 authorshil of one of the most celebrated verses of the seventeent century; NAVAL PROMOTIONS IN 1845.

"‘ 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 Jenson ; it is, therefore, essential to observe that Aubrey is not alone in stating them to be by Browne, the author of the Pastoralis ; ' for, in his note upon th e su bj ec t, h e l e f t a bl an k for the latter's hristian name, William, which was filled up by Evelyn, when he perased 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 foreflthers in trust for posterity. We had al most omitted to mention that the memoir is illustrated by a portrait of Aubrey and a view of Easten Piers, the place of his birth. HOP INTELLIGENCE. MAIDSTONE. -Our hop reports are so completely unani mous as to the progress and results of the picking, that, in the crowded state of our columns, we consider it a waste of room to publish them in detail. The fact is now established that the crop Is extremely short of last year in the great majority of grounds, although there are favoured exceptions. The picking has been sadly hindered by the wet, but is now fast drawing to a close. Arany acres in the neighbouring parishes will not be picked at all, as, on account of the de ficiency of hands, the hops will be worthless before they can begin upon them. Our famous College ground wil row about sixty-f our b ags off the twenty acres. This pari l sh g will average about six cwt. per acre. Duty from 150,000/. to 160,000L—Maidstonc Journal. WORCESTER. OcT. 15.--O ur mar k et was supplied on Sa turday with about 500 pockets of new hope, 357 of which were sold at various prices, ranging from 112 s. to 168 s. per cwt., and some of the samples were so very inferior that no one would even make a bid for them. The best samples were, however, bought up eagerly at the prices above named ; and for one or two choice samples Si. 15s. per cwt. was offered, and refused. Owing to the scarcity of good new hops, the demand for yearling and old hops continues as brisk as ever, 71. 7s. to 71. 12s„ being the current prices of the former, and 635. to 90s. per cwt. for the latter. There were 29 pockets of new weighed during the week, and 357 pockets of new and 22 of old on Saturday. RENT. —The weather of this week has somewhat improved upon last, which has afforded relief from the despondency of those who had not picked all their hops. A better condition is also slightly observable in the hops, and the duty has con sequently risen. A person who takes interest in this sub ject has made the following computation of the duty that will be realised from each district :—Rochester, 50,0017. ; Sussex, 60,r 00/. ; Faversham, 5,000/. ; Canterbury, 30,000/. ; Wor cester, 11,000/. ; Kingdom, 2,000/. Total, 158,0004 General accounts state that the picking is now drawing to a close, but that in some places it will not be finished for a fortnight, and in others that the h o p s w ill not b e picked at all, for, owing to the scarcity of hands, they will not be worth any thing after a further delay. We find that the lowest set of the duty is 150,000/., and the highest 165,0001.—Canterbury Journal of yesterday. BANK OF ENGLAND. —The fol!owing notice, issued yesterday by the Directors of the Bank of England, shows that the long-anticipated movement has taken place:— " of Enland, Oct. 16, . " At a Co ur t o f Di re ctors, Bank held this day, resolved 1845 " That the minimum rate of interest on London bills and notes, discounted at the Bank of England, be 3/. 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 thq rise in the interest of money will not stop at this point, on the ground that the Bark lately limited their period of accommodation to one month, and that this month has not yet expired.— ANALYSIS OF COAL.—It is stated that Mr. F. WrightQon, of Birmingham, has been directed by the Lords f as, Admiralty to make an analysis of the different kinds of coal in Great hritain. The object is one of great import an'r, not only in reference to our steam navy (on account of which the analysis is instituted), in order to show the relative value of different seams of coal, but also on account of our various manufactures, some of which require coals of a very different kinds from those suitable for others. An inquiry of the same kind has been completed in America.— Wolver hampton Chronicle. ACCIDENT TO A CABMAN.--011 Thursday morning, between seven and eight o'clock, a young man named James King, a carman in the service of 111 r. Jones, a builder, was proceeding along the Ranelagh-road with his team, when suddenly he was observed to fall, and before the horses could be stopped the wheel passed over his left leg, which was frac tured in a frightful manner. Assistance was immediately procured, and the poor fellow was conveyed to the hospital. HOP GROWING IN NOTTIMIABISIIIR E.—The last six years growing in the North Clay district has been a losing concern to the growers. The management of a hop-yard is 201. per acre; and the average during that period has not been quite 3 cwt. per acre. The consequence is that the planters are beginning to adapt their hop grounds to other and more profitable purposes, so that in a few yea -3 hop growing in Nottinghamshire will become a matter of history. —Nottingham &rico!. A man named Riom, formerly an irspeetGr of the Wilts police, is in custody at Bath, charged with stealing a silver hammer, and a cash-box containing 801., the property of Mr. R. W. Sheppard, of Eutaw, near o.xfprd.—Devizes Gazette, LETTERS OF Jumus.—The Inverness Courier says, that Sir David Brewster, who is married to a daughter of the late James Macpherson, Esq., translator of " Ossian's Poems," has discovered some letters among the papers of his father in-law which may lead to the discovery of a great secret — the authorship of " Junius." The person who, as Sir David thinks, may be identified as' the author, is Lachlan Maclean, the son of an Irish Presbyterian clergyman, but descended from the ancient Scottish family of the Macleans of Coll. 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 thesecret as to the authorship of " Junius." His papers were all lost at the same time. [ADVERTISEMENT.] —AN EXTRAORDINARY RETURN or HEALTH IN A FEW DAYS By THE USE OF HOLLOWAY'S PILLS.—The patient having previously been in an ill-state for six years, Mr. Benjamin Hawkins, employed in the ironworks, and well known at the Crown and Cushion, High Bullen, Wed nerbury, Staffordshire, had, to use his own phrase, been a sad afflicted creature, and that no one but God and himself knew what he suffered from aches and pains in all his joints and shins, likewise from a disordered liver and stomach, with scarcely strengths sufficient to keep a b out !

GENERAL POST -OFFICE.—LETTERS FOR CEYLON. —The following notice was yesterday issued :—On and from the Ist of November next, the British packet postage of one shilling the half-ounce, and so on in proportion, on letters posted in the United Kingdom, and addressed to the Island of Ceylon, rid Southampton, may be paid in advance or not, at the option of the sender. Letters not addressed viet Southampton will be forwarded br the way of Marseilles, and the postage on them must be paid in advance. EXTRAORDINARY HIGH TlDE.—Yesterrlay after noon there was an unusually high tide. At Bankside, Lambeth, and Thames-bank, the wharfs and adjacent streets were flooded ; so me portions of Battersea - fields were inun dated, and 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 awa t the falling of the tide, much to the inconvenience of the pwsengers. At Wandsworth the tide made f ree w i t h the works of the Richmond Railway, on that side of the line that will pass over the osier-beds. Here the tide rose about four feet, suspended all labour, and floated the timber about in admirable confusion. The high tides will be very prejudicial to the progress of the viaduct which is to traverse this part, and immense expense must be incurred in the making of dams before the foundation of the bridges can be laid. EFFECT OF GUANO ON VINES AND ORANGE TREES. —Mr. Driver, of Madeira, in February last, used four bags of Peruvian guano on four acres of vines, the result of which is that he had four-fold the quantity of grapes produced in former years, which, of course, will yield four times the quan tity of wine, unless bad weather occurs between this and the vintage. Mr. D. also tried it with orange trees, which have Oven nearly double the usual ;umber, and are much larger in size. UNIVERITY OF LONDON. BACHELORS OF ARTS-1845. FIRST DIVISION. Barnee, P.

We have just received a statement, the perfect accurr of which we have not the means of verifying at the moms but from inquiries which we have made there is every reas to apprehend that it Nvill prove too true. The account as follows :—On Monday night the usually quiet village Byford (a few miles from this city) was thrown into t greatest agitation and alarm in consequence of Miss El! Davies, a very interesting and pretty girl, having bt shot at. She was picked up—(the exact spot is not me , tioned)—insensible, and bathed in blood, which flowed frt the left arm and shoulder, which are fractured, and s' lies in a very dangerous state. A quantity of blood v also traced down the meadow and over the stile at t back of the house, so that some one else beside Miss Day must have been wounded, as she was not in that directi From what our correspondent subsequently states, it is improkable that the perpetrator afterwards attempted I own life. For nearly three years past (he says) a gentler: paid his addressesto her, but was rejected on account of a pi vious engagement; he then left England, but returned aga and renewed his addresses in a most threatening and resell manner, she vainly endeavouring to avoid him. Her frien seeing that he still pursued her, thought that she had 'bey receive his addresses—which, I believe, she did; but it a pears that she received information that he had formerly a very gay life, and he was again rejected. Since that to he has been in a deranged state of mind, and confined; used then to say that he would shoot her; that she shm never hzve any other ; that he would shoot hims with her, &c. He has been watching his opportun' more than a week. Our correspondent speaks in highest terms of the victim's prudence, good temper, a happy disposition, and adds, " I believe there , has been m, than one attempt to carry Miss D. off." Three hree weeks r she had a narrow escape; she was met by two men mull up in a great cloak, but her father and his man happening be coming along the road at the time, they then put i down and took to their heels. That party cannot be fot out. The distress of her parents at the el, - ent which has j occurred may be better imagined than told. We have lean that Miss Davies was undoubtedly greatly annoyed by addresses of a person such as described —so much so th at intended to leave the place. It is not impr o b a bl e, t h erefi that, with the desperate passion for the destruction of which characterises the lunatic, he may first have at:emp to kill his victim and afterwards himself.—Hereford Journa,, —E now CoNnucT --- .—On.

Roused by the numerous accounts we have received; the different dockyards and ports, of the inhuman cola of the Surveyor of the Navy and his myrmidons tow his offspring, and generally to the unfortunate vessels pl. under his care, and despairing of any results from of inquiry, we dispatched our own Commissioner to invests the facts of the ease—and have much pleasure in subjol his first report, which will, we doubt not, excite milvt indignation against those who have thus shockingly ale our gallant defendere. The Victoria and Albert examined---" Was built at Pc mouth. Is about two years old. Knows Sir Ro Symonds. Has good reasons to know him. Was treated kindness at first, and handsomely dressed. had as rr as three coats of paint, besides gilding. Was ordered of harbour last year, when unfit to move. Teld them was unfit; but was hauled out of dock by force. Resi as well as she could, and nearly went aground in the 1 hour. Was made to move on. Moving caused her g pain; violent wrenchings in all her joints, and a sense of weakness in the boiler. Doesn't think she'll ever over her first attack. The Surveyor said it was ail si and humbug; that she could go if she liked; and that, n didn't, he would trim her. Looked upon that as a the Was always ill-treated from that time; has had her eng taken out and put in again ; but experienced no relief. anything, felt worse after it than b:thre. Had a shortne steam,s which compelled her to stop every two or three h niu the habit of rolling about, as if drunk couh help it; it is - as from weakness. All she asks is to be ails to fall to pieces quietly, as she knows she is past the deg Feels as it she is going faet—except when at sea." The poor creature's feeble movements and evident suffe from the various operations she has been subjected to a painfully apparent while she was under examination. At conclusion eic wheezed out of court with difficulty; am - Commissioner has since heard that she is laid up from am here, as, indeed, she always is, after the slightest exertion. The . `i anguard exanuued—" Was built at Pembroke • ten years ( hi. -!Al a ays heard Sir Robert Symonds we fa;her. Has been in the Mediterranean. Went as we she could. , Had not her full allowance of provisions. ( plained, but was told it Was to make her iniire active." very much the worse for that trip. The weather was ' but always suffered at sea, whether smooth or not. Is she never Went ten knots an hour; whoever says so, what isn't true; couldn't do it. When made to go fast, as if her back was broke. Has refused to obey her I Thought she had a right to do so—feeling very un- W hen she refused to obey he • helm she was throwr the trough. It was the steersman did it. Hurt Ii very much. Was made to go to sea in July last, wits Superb, the Cauea - zue, and sonic others. Was kept • short of provisions, because the was always behind rest. Was abused ;Or swimming deep. Found it very to keep her heed above water at all. Hopes she m soon be sent to sea again. Feels that if she is to go out in bad weather, she'll soon break up-- doesn't care how scion it ie. Has had her head two or three times. but feels as heavy as ever. Ilas 1 them talk about trimming her. Tried to go ashore on( twice, but wasn't allowed. Any ship would have tried t ashore that had been heated as she had. Wishes there - a war —perhaps she'd be put out of her misery." The poor creature was so unfit for work, she could he stand upright under the slightest. canvas; and the wax laboured and strained, while under examination, was fectly dreadful. The Superb examined-_" Was built at Pembroke, in I Was fitted out in 1843. Wouldn't take her stores on be . refused to do so bccause she couldn't carry 'ern. Is quick in her movements, and was generally unable to i ' • up with her companions. Has sustained a severe sr when last out, and feels she ought to be laid up—but beli they intend getting more work out of her. Doesn't I . how she's to do it. Her frame is weak, and she feels 1 gether unsound. Has often wished to be cast away outiS Couldn't well be a greater wreck than she is at present." A greater contrast could not well be imagined than l* afforded by the miserable trio just mentioned, and a halt lady, named the Canopus, who was in Court during the ' vestigation, a fine specimen: of French health and agil though she dates from the last century. She has been eustomed to travel in company with Vanguard and Sup and outstrips invariably her youthful but yet decrepid et panions, while the style in which she stows away - her r. visions and water excites the wonder and admiration of who have seen her. This she owes to her strength of c 1 stitution, and. the judicious treatment she received while • the cradle. We trust the Parliament in this country will take so steps to protect our wooden walls from the dreadful treatm, of which the above examination bat imperfectly discloses appalling particulars.—Punch.
