JULLIEN'S CONCERT MONSTRE, SURREY - 20 - 0 - LO , _;ICAL GARDENS, FRIDAY, JUNE 20. Mons. JULLIEN has the honour to announce to the Nobility, Gentry, and the Public, that he intends giving a GRAND CONCERT 3IONSTRE, on FRIDAY, the 20th, (being the comme moration day of the accession of her Majesty), on the same scale of grandeur as those given in Paris, at the Jardin Turc, Casino, and Champs Elysees, in celebration of the Fete of Louis Philippe, and other great occasions, as conducted by M. Jullien. The Orchestra will consist of 300 Instrumental Performers, em bracing all the principal English and Foreign Artistes at that mo ment in the metropolis, forming au ensemble never before heard in England, and presenting the greatest Congress Musicale ever assembled in this country.

This railway is intended to connect the North and South of the principality of Wales more closely together, and to form a junction by the most direct route with the Railway of the Midland Counties, Birmingham and London. It has been decided upon, after full and careful consideration of the practical engineering facilities for effecting both these important objects in the most certain and economical manner ; and, also, after consulting the views and interests of the principal landed proprietors within the districts to be thereby ac commodated. The line proposed is to commence at the city of Worcester, and, proceeding in a north-west direction, through the towns of Tenbury, Ludlow, and Bishop's Castle, to Newtown, it will be continued to Canto, and crossing the first range of the Welsh mountains into the Valley of the Dyfi, will there branch off both to the north and south. The north line will be carried by Dolgelly and Tremadoc to the seaport of Carnarvon. The southern line will be carried through Machynlleth to the sea port of Aberystwith, and thence passing by the course of the river Ystwith into the Valley of the Tievi, it will go to Tragaron, Lam pater, Newcastle, Emlyn, Cardigan, and Carmarthen. The Prospectus will be ready for delivery after Friday next, upon application to the Solicitors, Messrs. Bush and Mullens, St. Mildred's court, London; and Robert Rising, Esq., Worcester.

NOTE.—The figures which follow the words "Lowest" and " Highest" denote the lowest and highest state of the Thermometer during the preceding twenty-four hours.

Morning .. 56 minutes after 7 j Evening .. 30 minutes after 8 allowed to be; closed—a highway of equitable public charity, which ought never to have been permitted to grow out of " customary resort," and to fall into such desuetude as to require the authority of new statutes to re-open it ;—this very circumstance should excuse the Learned Lord if he halt and hesitate somewhat on his new effort to retrace the ancient courses through which the humanity of the old law was wont to distribute succour to those who could no longer succour themselves ; for there is a very strict analogy between the old custom or traditionary law, of which the system of relief practically adopted affords us occasional glimpses, and the new scheme of poor-law which the Lord Advocate has brought forward. We should have thought that with Scotchmen generally this assimilation of the modern scheme to the ancient principle would, in itself, have formed a considerable recommendation of the plan. In saying this, we are by no means insensible to the defects of that plan. It may, in many particulars, be obnoxious to the objection taken by Mr. PATRICK STEWART, in his usual pithy and epigrammatic manner—that it is a Poor Bill, good for lairds and heritors, bad for the presumed pauper recipients of the assessments upon them. It may even be chargeable with the deficiencies which Mr. CoLeuHouN has noted in it, or with some of those inherent vices which have made it utterly un palatable to other of the Scottish Members. But since none of those Honourable Gentlemen—not even Mr. RUTHERFORD or Mr. F. MAULE—dispute the enormity of the abuses which have crept into the system—or "no system" of relieving the poor of Scotland, as it now ex ists—since none attempt to argue that any machinery already exists adequate to the repression of these abuses, now, or to their prevention hereafter—why will they discourage the commencement of a remedial system ? Because the measure of the Lord Advocate does not go far enough, are they unwilling that it should be put in motion at all? Because some of its details are deemed to be objectionable, shall no trial be made of the great principles which they form but the means of carrying out into execution? You admit the disease; you invoke a remedy. Because the remedy at its first concoction is unpalatable to some of those interested in its exhibition, is the disease to remain unarrested? Is it to be contended that the desperate condition of the patient had better be suffered to determine in hopeless, irreme diable disease, rather than subject it to a treatment which no one denies would arrest its progress, though it might not, alone, re-establish the sufferer? Why, the condi tion of the Scottish pauper is miserable; he is a sufferer in the most fearful sense of the term; his malady, social and physical, does demand instant lenitives, if you are not ready with a radical cure ; there is but one stage beyond that which the privation and wretchedness incident to the neglect in which he has too long been left to pine ; and that is—death. Shall we quarrel with a prompt restorative because it is not a certain and complete specific—or deny him the benefit of its administration, because it is tendered by hands shrewdly suspected to be those of lairds and heritors ? Why, the case is that of suffering and privation, which, if it is to be' relieved at all, must be relieved at once. Therefore we concur with Mr. COLQUIIOUN in dissent ing altogether from Mr. HUME'S proposition (at the close of a good speech, however, in support of the prin ciple), to let the measure tide over till next session. There is no country in the world of which the poor, from their generally industrious, orderly, sober and frugal habits, their willingness to labour and their cheerfulness in enduring toil, are better entitled to all the considera tion which poor-laws can secure for them in helplessness and sickness, infirmity, age, or want of em ployment, than the poor of Scotland. Our humble but earnest advice, then, to Scottish Members generally is—make a beginning, at all events. Reform that scandal on all parties justly blameable for its existence, the present condition of your unfortunate paupers. Don't be driven uff the true and legitimate object you are bound to keep in view, by statements and counter-statements of irrelevant matters, criminatory and recriminatory, about the clearance of the Suther land estates in 1815, or even more recent processes of wholesale ejectment. Try this experiment of an amended poor-law, taking care that it be free from the despotic abominations that attach, or have attached, to that which we have had so often to cobble for England and Wales, if this attempt of the Lord Advocate do not fully answer—realise, in the first place, all the good it can be made to yield ; and in the second, carefully mature all future improvements, which careful observa tion, during the experience of the term you may choose to allot for the experiment, may show to be necessary, when the period arrives for revising it. We have intelligence from Madrid to the 6th inst. The great topic of conversation was the abdication of Don CARLOS, an event which seems to be viewed by all political parties, except the Absolutists, with the greatest suspicions. A general belief prevails, that an arrange ment has been come to between the Court of Spain, in other words the Camarilla, and the Carlists, that the QUEEN is to be married to the Prince of ASTURIAS, and the old system of absolute Government restored. The public feeling we believe to be correctly expressed by the Clamor I'ublico. In adverting to the proclamation of the Prince to the Spanish nation, that journal says:—" Those flowers cover an abyss; behind that manifesto lurk a restoration and despotism, with hatreds and resent ments that have brooded for ten years. A restoration is the greatest calamity that can befal a nation. We impatiently await the decision of the Government, and hope that it will reject that monstrous alliance." The QUEEN made her entrance into Barcelona on the sth, amidst the applause of a vast concourse of people. General NARVAEZ accompanied her MAJESTY, but MARTINEZ DE LA Rosa remains at Madrid, either ill or feigning to be ill.

The private advices brought by the Britannia from New York and Canada are - of a much more favourable character than the contents of the public journals as respects the state of trade, &c., matters upon which we have always better means of information than most of our contemporaries in the States, or in Canada. A very considerable addition was ex pected this year of emigrants of the character most required, viz., those practically acquainted with farming, &c., who, at the same time, had the means of buying lands at limited credits. The most important intelligence from New York is a statement that Mr. Andrew H. Everett had been deputed as resident American, Ambassador at Canton: From the known desire of this gentleman to promote the best understanding with our country, it may be assumed that no measures would be taken by him, of a nature likely to bring about any unfavourable feeling upon matters connected with the new trade. The Three per Cents. closed at 31i for cash, and 32k at 60 days ; the Five per Cents. at 201 for cash, and 21-a at 60 days; and the Debt without Interest at 7-1, at 60 days. The following is a comparative statement of arrivals and tonnage at the port of Quebec, in the years 1844 and 1845, to the 26th of May inclusive for each year : Vessels. Tonnage. Passengers. May 26, 1844 134 ... 52,367 ... 3,068 May 26, 1845, 312 ... 117,107 ... 208 More this year l7B ... 64,640 ... 2,860 The features in the Bank of England return for last week are an increase of 96,865/. in the amount of notes issued, viz., to 29,732,6001., but then there are 200,0201. more taken to the banking department. The bullion was 16,512,0861., an increase of 100,1081. In the French Chamber of Peers a discussion of some interest took place on the 11th relative to the Jesuits. On the introduction of the Supplementary Credits' Bill, the Count DE MONTALENDERT took occasion to defend the Jesuits, whom he identified with the Catholic Church, denounced the treatment they received at the hands of the Government, and instanced several countries, even Protestant countries, such as Holland and England, were they were more humanely dealt with. The Minister of Justice, in reply, said " he could not allow the comparison instituted by , the Noble Peer between France and Eng land to pass unnoticed. Undoubtedly England was playing a glorious part at present, but could he not ex claim with all who heard him, 'Honour to France ! honour to our Charter, which dispenses with our being obliged to act as England does !' France was far above the fine example given by the neighbouring country— France possessed institutions which had proclaimed liberty of worship, and which preserved her for ever from having to manifest generosity or commiseration for the religion of the minority." He then showed the character of the Jesuits, sketched the union that existed between the Church and State three years back, and the present comparative anarchy, and argued that the change was chiefly attributed to the schemes of the Jesuits. He alluded to the claims set forth by tho Jesuits to take part in the education of youth, and stated how the Chambers had risen to prevent it, showed how the Jesuits had contrived to unite with bishops, and to induce them to make common cause with their body. He concluded by declaring that the Govern ment would proceed firmly in the accomplishment of the mission entrusted to their care, and the strong common sense of the public would show who was right. His speech was followed by loud marks of approbation. The Chamber had passed the Bill for arming the fortifi cations of Paris by a majority of 98 to 18. In the De puties the Budget was still under consideration. The papers announce the death of the Countess MOLE, which occurred on Wednesday, after a short illness.

The House of Lords met at Five o'clock. The Earl of ABERDEEN brought down a message from her MAJESTY, recommending their Lordships to concur with her in making a provision for Sir HENRY POTTINGER, by settling on him 1,5001. a year for life, which message was 'ordered to be taken into considera tion on Monday. A long conversation then ensued on the subject of the differences between the Rev. Mr. MACKESEY and the Bishop of CASHEL ; after which, The Marquis of :CLANRICARDE brought forward the subject of the Irish policy of the Government. This gave rise to a discussion, which, however, led to no re sult, and their Lordships adjourned at Nine o'clock. The Speaker took the chair at Four o'clock. Sir R. PEEL brought down a Message from her MA JESTY, recommending the House to make a provision of 1,5001. a year for Sir H. POTTINGER, which was ordered to be taken into consideration on Monday next. Sir JAMES GRAHAM moved that the House do resolve itself into Committee, in order to vote the grant for the new colleges in Ireland. The motion was opposed by Mr. SMITH O'BRIEN, and a lengthened discussion followed, but the Hon. Member ultimately withdrew his opposition, when the House went into Committee of Supply, and Sir JAMES GRAHAM proposed that the sum of 100,0001. for the esta blishment, and 21,000/. for the endowment of the acade mical institutions in Ireland should be granted from the Consolidated Fund, and which, after a brief debate, was agreed to. Sir W. H. BARRON then brought under the considera tion of the House the state of the Fisheries in Ireland, which led to a lengthened conversation. At its ter mination the House went into Committee on the Ord nance Estimates, when several sums were voted for the public service, and the House adjourned at a Quarter past One o'clock. The question put by Mr. LABOUCHERE in the House of Commons to Sir ROBERT PEEL, relative to Spanish slave-grown sugar, and the reply of the Right Hon. Ba ronet, open up questions of the first importance, not to the commercial interest only, but to the whole of our in dustrious population. The Spanish Government, it ap pears, claims under the:treaty of Utrecht, and we believe also of subsequent treaties, the right of importing into the United Kingdom the sugars of Cuba and Porto Rico at the most favoured rate of duty. There is no doubt at all that the application bad been evade, for it was admitted by Sir ROBERT PEEL, and we are inclined to think there is as little doubt of the fact that such treaties are in existence. The Minister did net attempt to deny it—he merely said that no answer had yet been given to the application. When these treaties were made the feeling which prevails among certain classes in this country against slave grown sugar was not in existence. All the sugar imported at those periods from British co lonies was produced by the labour of slaves—the slave trade itself was carried on by Liverpool, Bris tol, and other tea-ports, to an enormous extent, and it never could enter into the head of any Minister to propose to Spain that sugar of this kind should be made an exception, when it was admitted from our own colonies as a matter of course, and without one word being uttered against it by the only party who took an interest in the question—the abolitionists of the slave trade. Even WILBERFORCE, with all his philan thropy, and all his generous enthusiasm in the sacred cause, hesitated long before he would pass the limit which he had prescribed to himself—the simple abolition of the slave trade ; and it was not till many years after the conclusion of treaties with slave-holding states that the noble, the vast, and ultimately the successful, scheme was proposed for the complete emancipation of our slave population. But there is another fact which streni,thens our view of the question at issue. Slave grown sugar has within these few months been admitted into this country from Venezuela and New Orleans— the former essentially a Spanish colony—in virtue of ancient treaties. It amounts then to all but a certainty that Cuba and Porto Rico were not made exceptions, and the answer of Sir ROBERT PEEL implies as much ; for had any doubt on the subject existed in his mind, he could not, with any propriety, have concealed the circumstance. When we consider the vast quantities of sugar raised in these colonies, such a fact is of the most vital importance merely in a trading point of view, without taking into account the West ledia interest, the revenue, and the good of the public at large. On the last ground we bail this prospect of relief to our hard-working popu lation with unfeigned satisfaction. The refusal of this country to admit sugar raised by slaves would not, in the slightest degree, abate slavery ; and why should Englishmen alone suffer, and suffer, too, in an attempt which never can be realised ? The second reading of the Poor-law Amendment (Scotland) Bill—though we could have wished that it had passed through that stage with a less manifestation of opposition—forms, in our opinion. an important epoch in the social history of modern Scotland. The Lord Advocate has really, in no respect, exaggerated the extreme bodily sufferings, the terrible privations, the domestic misery of paupers, especially such as are aged and impotent in that country ; and surely, if the facts established a case but of one-half of the intensity of that exhibited in the fearful pictures traced by the Learned Lord, the responsibility of the Imperial Legislature for having so long permitted so vast an evil to remain with out a remedy—if the extent of the destitution pervading so large a portion of North Britain was known in official quarters—the remissness of such authorities in not having before brought the matter under legislative consideration, seems all but unpardonat'le. If the know ledge of such destitution had not, previously to the Lord Advocate's moving in the matter, yet reached these t o ah ffi r ee c v i a a idg l d ian e ni p cs a et e r a t r m es d e w. n e t slB, But, in aitthnef either at efficiency e ee l na ; e s s ye s w e w r i e i t oh think wi l n y hki c a i t g i againstthey to withhold f rom the Lord Advocate , h the meet" . of good atwithaata f t o e r haring, di p g r r a a i p s p a e d a n a d t a desert ?swg reavceerfatlatrod the Government, and dangerous to the vital interests of any nation in which it is suff ere d to exist.

The trial out of which the proceedings arose was held before Mr. Justice Coleridge, at the last assizes. The grounds upon which a new trial was moved for were purely technical, and as the arguments were entirely of the same character, nothing interesting occurred. SHERIFFS' COURT.-(THIS DAY.)

The defendant is a tailor, and the action was brought to recover the sum of 61. on a joint and several promissory note. The defendant had pleaded several special pleas that the bill had been obtained from him by fraud, and that it was drawn for the ac. commodation of the plaintiff: He was not, however, prepared with evidence, and a verdict was given against him. RAILWAY COMMITTEES. (THIS DAY.) HOUSE OF COMMONS. GROUP A. SOUTH EASTERN (DOVER) MINE. The Committee having met this morning at the hour agreed on (twelve o'clock), the discussion on the subject of the admissi. bility of evidence against the atmospheric principle, was resumed Mr. AUSTIN objected to this kind of evidence at great length. Mr. LA.NGIIAM, on the part of the North Kent line, objected to the evidence on the ground that it would occupy more time than was necessary. It was the intention of the South. Eastern Com. pany to make every possible delay, in order to keep the Committee engaged on this subject until Parliament should have adjourned, and to bring their project forward next year as a Bill. Mr. COCKBURN insisted on his right to enter into the evidence. After a discussion on this and other points, 1 The CHAIRMAN said that the Committee would not make any resolution at present, but that Mr. Cockburn would proceed with the examination of Mr. Bidders on the application of the principle. Mr. AUSTIN—Then we shall be here till the Tower guns are fired.—(A laugh.) Mr. COCKBURN said that he would not abuse the permission that had been granted him by the Committee. Mr. Bidders then proceeded to state that he had examined the line proposed by the London and Croydon Company, and had also read the answers given by them to the questions asked by Mr. Merrewether on the part of the South. Eastern line. It was his opinion, founded on his own observations and on the statements of the Company, that the proposed line was impracticable. The wit_ neas then proceeded to point out his reasons for this assertion, and to describe several causes of retardation. (LEFT SITTING.) GROUP K. WYNDHAM AND DEREHAM MINE. The Committee on the lines for accommodating these districts resumed this morning at eleven, Viscount Sandon in the chair. William Colman, examined by Mr. CALVERT—Is proprietor of mills, both paper and flour, situate at Marlingford, about six or seven miles from Norwich. Generally purchases his corn at Dere ham, grown by farmers in the neighbourhood, though he procures large amounts of grain from other contiguous parishes. If the line to Dereham were constructed, he should send his flour by it, both to Norwich and Dereham ; the direct line would, therefore, be of the very greatest advantage to him, and the other mills or factories in its route, but the divtrging line through Wyndham would be corn. paratively useless. His mills yield about 2,000 sacks of flour weekly, though they are capable of manufacturing upwards of 3,000. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS, Q.C.—There are eight sacks to a ton, and it generally costs about Bs. for the traction of a ton of flour from the mills at Marlingford to Norwich; the average price of conveyance is, therefore, about Is. per sack. Isaac Everett, examined by Mr. J&MES—Is owner of a farm a few miles from Fakenham, and about eighteen miles from Norwich. His farm comprises about 1,000 acres, and he grazes fifty or sixty head of cattle. After the cattle are grazed they are sent to London by water. There is a considerable traffic between Dere ham and Norwich, all of which would go upon the direct line to Norwich, if constructed ; but the difference of distance on the cir cuitous route by Wyndham would deter many from sending their goods by it, and he doubts whether the people of Fakenham would ever make use of it at all. Mr. Richard Doggitt—ls a resident of South Picken ham, and thinks Swaffham would be the nearest point for him by which to reach any line connecting Dere ham and Norwich. At Lytin a discount of 5 per cent., with a month's credit, is required for all grain sent for sale there. In the neighbourhood of Swaffham flour is nearly Sd. a stone higher than at Norwich, although the wheat is dearer, the absence of mills, and the want of direct land carriage, creating the difference in the price of flour. The construction of a line which would give a ready and economical means of transit through Swaffham to Dere ham on the one hand, or Norwich on the other, would tend to equalise the prices of flour in the districts between those towns. Cross-examined by Mr. ANDREWS, Q.C.—The great difficulty at present preventing the farmers about Swaffham from sending their produce to Norwich, is the great expense and distance. Farms about 700 acres of kindly land. (LEFT SITTING.) GROUP SS. The Committee met this day at twelve o'clock, in roam No. 13. Members present—Lord Harry Vane, Chairman ; the Earl of Listewel, the Earl of March, Mr. Hutt, and Mr. Briscoe. The Committee proceeded with the opposed clauses in the EREWASII VALLEY RAILWAY. The Committee were occupied for about two hours in discussing the propriety of crossing the Erewash Canal by the means of bridges. Mr. MACAULAY argued against the Committee's right to em, power the railway company to cross the canal ; it would be placing the canal company on a different footing from the other landowners across the canal, who were required to be consenting parties to railways interfering with their property, whereas, by empowering the promoters to construct bridges, was making the consent of the canal proprietors compulsory. The CRAIRIIAN thought the Committee had the right to give such powers, inasmuch as the branches of the line would not be of advantage to the Company, without being allowed to cross the canal. The further consideration of the clause was postponed, and the Cemmittea proceeded to consider the elevation of the bridges across the canal from the trunk line. (LEFT SITTING.) GROUP X. CAMBRIDGE AND LINCOLN RAILWAY. The Committee having assembled this day at the usual hour, Mr. Peacock was called, and deposed as to the general advan. tages to be derived to the line of country through which the Cam bridge and Lincoln line would pass, in conjunction with the Witham and Forsdyke Navigation ; and therefore he conceived it would be injurious that those two water communications should become incorporated with the London and York Railway scheme. Mr. Reid Calthorp—ls a landowner at Swanshead ♦bbey, in Lin colnshire, and also one of the Witham Navigation Commissioners for the second district, which occupies 22,000 acres, and also one of the Block Sluice Commissioners, a navigation which occupies 64,000 acres; does not hold shares in either. There was a meeting of the Commissioners of the former, at which the Cambridge and Lincoln line was approved of ; the Witham empties itself into Boston through what was called the Grand Sluice. Was decidedly of opinion that it would not be advantageous to have the Navigation Commissioners to be connected with any railway com pany. Has had some trouble already by reason of such a junction with other railway companies, in deciding which it was had a right to make certain repairs. The population of the parish of Swans. head was about 2,300, and that of the three other adjacent parishes about 7,000 altogether. Always understood that it was a favourite object with the Boston people to have a communication with Not tingham. Mr. Edward Clementson, waggoner, of St. Ives, deposed that he carried on a very large traffic to St. Ives, and through the imme- diate surrounding districts, from London, of general merchandise ; the projected Cambridge and Lincoln line by St. Ives would very much increase the traffic. Mr. Harris deposed that he had a very extensive trade in bricks at St. Ives, and consumed a great quantity of coals. Could effect a great saving in his manufacture, and increase his traffic very much if the line were made. A material called " turf" was now conveyed from St. Ives to London. The carriage now cost 6/. to Si. per 1,000. If the railway were made it would be sold at 71. or Os. per 1,000 Mr. Diatay would be glad to know how the witness could accouni for such a difference. (LEFT SITTING.) INFORMATION AGAINST THE POLICE.—The result of the Government inquiry into the shooting of the poor man near Strokestown is, that informations have been taken against the six policemen concerned in the transaction ; and they have been held to bail to stand their trial at our next assizes.

In the story of " 6t. Gillis anal St. James" we have a striking illustration of the ellectS t;`f education, " as the twig is bent, the tree's inclined." Two boys, originally endowed with equal moral and intellectual capacities, but widely separated by the accident of birth, rich and poor—of " two nations," —these are the heroes of the tale. We fell9w their varying fortunes. We find every luxury that tohho ment can suggest combined to soften the path of the young lord, while the hapless child of poverty drags on a weary life—a childhood without smiles, a year without a spring. Can we then wonder that their characters as men should bear the impress of their early training ? Young St. James grows up to manhood surrounded by friends and instructors, with every incentive to virtue, and comparatively few temptations, while St. Giles, suf fering for the crimes of his companions, escapes the scat'- fold only to consume the best years of his life in a foreign prison. In the present Number the story increases in interest—we are introduced to our heroes when they first meet as men, St. Giles having returned from transportation. The following is a beautiful de scription of " tired Nature's sweet restorer," sleep : " ' God be with you,' said the girl ; and the words cf gentle ness, the happy, hopeful tone that breathed in them, fell like balm upon the felon's heart ; and in a few moments he was sunk in the deep happiness of sleep ; he was far away in that neutral region of life, where Emperors put off their crowns— where the arrogance of earth is calm and harmless—where pride and ostentation have not their blatent trumpets blown before them—where the purple of Dives is cast aside on the same heap with the rags of Lazarus—where the equality to all, that death shall everlastingly bring, is once a day rehearsed by all men—where life is simple breathing, and the slave loses the master. "For many nights had St. Giles slept in the open fields. Ragged, and worn, and hunger-stricken, he had, nevertheless, slept; and only when the daylight came felt for a time his sinews cramped and stiffened with the dews of night. Still, with the sky above him, no more sheltered than his neighbour ox or sheep, he had slept: he had—despite of fortune— cheated misery with forgetfulness. Nature for a time had blessed him as she had blessed the happiest man." "A History for Young England" contains an account of the second Norman Sovereign, William Rufus• If the present account be correct, few historians have dune justice to the red king. " Man and the Cri minal" is a gloomy catalogue, not of crimes, but of their punishments. Truly, if men were as ingenious in framing plans for improvement, as they are ready in devising methods of punishment, we should have occasion to build schools instead of prisons, and have more need of the cler gyman than the executioner. " The Bishop's Km ck" is a legend of the south-west, founded on a true and Me lancholy incident:—a bishop having been invited to per form the ceremony of baptism, arrived in his state carriage, his footman knocked vehemently at the door, and the violent noise frightened the infant heir into con vulsions and occasioned his death. " The Anti-Corn law Bazaar" contains an interesting account of the late free-trade exhibition, concluding with the following words:— " We might go on for days and weeks enumerating the contents of the League Bazaar. Let us content ourselves with drawing from their obvious moral, with recording their silent pleading. " They represent Industry ; they demand Industry's rights. Here, in this island, are hands and mouths ; the labour of the one should be the food of the other. The spirit of Selfishness, powerful for a time, has said No ! ' The people may not exchange what their hands have made, for the food which it would bring them. The struggling, honest, willing labour of the masses, is paralysed for the luxurious, selfish idleness of the few ! " Here, in England, is ingenuity to invent, and strength to execute, industrial achievements such as the world never before saw? Abroad there grows teeming food, the gift of the Deity. We would barter the products of our hands for the products of our neighbours' fields. " Selfishness forbids the bargain : backs in one land shall be kept bare, in order Lhat stomachs in another may be kept empty ; food shall rot in the fields of this country, because it may not be exchanged for merchandise, mouldering in ware houses in that. " But Common Sense, Common Humanity, Common Jus tice, call aloud, and with a God's voice proclaim, that God's gifts to all men shall not be marred by the foul will of a few ; that the industrious shall not starve when there is food ; that trade shall be as free as the sun, and the breeze, and the rain ; that the great Religion of Commerce, which is civilising, humanising, fraternising the world, shall no longer have a Custom-house for its Church, or a hostile tariff for its Bible !" THE NE W SPORTING MAGAZINE. The first plate in this number represents "Aristides," a beautiful race-horse belonging to Lord Eglintoun, and a winner at Goodwood in 1842 and 1844. " Touch and Take" is a spirited engraving, illustrating an important and anxious moment. Lord William Lennox has con tributed a paper on " Hunting in France." There are also some remarks on the " Sporting Subjects in the Exhibition," an amusing tale relating to "an Irish Justice of the Peace, thirty years ago;" " Thoughts on Hunting ;" " The Game-laws ;" shooting, and a variety of subjects of similar interest. THE FARMER'S MAGAZINE. The principal feature se the present number is a " Design for a Farm Establishment"—the house, the garden, the barns, stables, in short every particular spot is marked out with exactitude, and we doubt not the plan itself and the remarks accompanying it will be both useful and interesting to all concerned in farming. There is a paper on rent, remarks on ploughing, ma nures, the destructiveness of hail -storms, and other subjects of agricultural interest, and also an engraving of Buchan Nero," the property of Sir Charles Tem pest, and the winner of the first prize at the meeting at Berwick in CHURCH OF ENGLAND MAGAZINE. This number contains a sermon and meditations for each Sunday in the month, with a pleasing variety of sacred poetry. There are also descriptions of the Pa:ace of Linlithgow, the Lake of Como, and the old Abbey at St. Alban's, each illustrated by an engraving. Sketches of natural history arc continued, and among a variety of interesting miscellanies we find a short account of the " Origin of the Censorship of the Press." THE SPORTING MAGAZINE. The principal engraving in this number celebrates the grand event of the last month—the " Derby Day." The moment selected is that immediately succeeding the race, before the excitement has subsided, when the eager mul titudes crowd round the " stewards' stand," anxious to view the winner. The literary department is, as usual, confined to sporting subjects. The " Chasseur au Chien d'arret" is as amusing as ever; some of the remarks with regard to poaching show the difference between the gen tleman breaking the laws for amusement and the poor man instigated by necessity. THE METEOR. No. 11. Almost every department of arts and literature can boast of some publication devoted to its interests. There are magazines relating to politics, science, the united ser vice, foreign sporting affairs—in short, to almost every subject. The Meteor is to be the organ of the hitherto " unrepresented" theatrical department, and to judge from the commencement, it seems well suited to the part. The name of the editor, Buckstone, is " a host itself." The present number is embellished with an engraving of Mr. Webster, and contains a biographical sketch of that spirited manager. There is a pleasing variety of light tales and epigrams, and an effecting memoir of the late Mr. Strickland, from which we quote the following : " The loss of Mr. Strickland will be severely felt by all the lovers of sterling acting, and by the Haymarket company especially ; his style and figure were eminently adapted for the characters he sustained in the comedies of that establishment— while the contra , t he presented to Farren, greatly assisted in completing the picture always formed by the first-rate com pany of the Haymarket Theatre in their admirable represen tations of the higher order of comedy. Who, like Strickland, could stand as Sir Oliver Surface, by the side of William Farron's Sir Peter Teazle? or as Gripe, with the latter actor's Moneytrap, in The Confederacy ? Where is now the Hay market Falstaff ?—the best the London stage has known for many years. Where the amorous Sir William Fondlove and the renowned Christopher Sly, the drunken tinker of The Taming of the Shrew? Where the kind-hearted and much-bewildered Tom Noddy? Where all the oily, angry old men that Buckstone was wont to worry in the hundred-and one farces that sent the Haymarket audience, season after season, laughing to their beds ?--' And is old Double dead ? No actors in the Haymarket will miss the rich humour of their departed colleague more than Farren and Buckstone; a perfect understanding always appeared to exist between them ; a playing into each other's hands, without which feeling on the part of the actors no dramatic representation can ever be genial or perfect." LITERATURE. THE DISPUTED INHERITANCE. By Grace Webster. 3 Vols. In the introduction to this works the authoress ob serves, "In the present state of literature, when it has become for the most part a mere mercantile speculation, the success of a work, irrespective of its merits, depends on one of these three concomitants—a catching title, an author's name known in the world of fashionable book making, or the author's ability to write for a party, and to frame his work in accordance with the dominant poli tical or religious opinions of the times. The following work is wholly destitute of these distinctions, and, I fear, possesses no qualities of a higher and more substantial kind to make up for the deficiency. But all I aim at is to furnish an innocent hour's amusement to those whom it is worth trying to amuse, in the intervals of time not devoted to the serious business and occupations of life." To furnish "an innocent hour's amusement" is the avowed object of the authoress, and in that she has every chance of succeeding. The " Diapered InheritaLce" is not an historical nor a political novel; it does not pro fess to inform or admonish, neither is it calcu lated to interest the romantic: its aim is to amuse—it may win smiles when the mind is too pre-occupied for graver thoughts, and will serve to make an idle hour pass pleasantly. The scene is laid in the " far north," and the principal actors are the family of a Scottish laird of the old school, " On hospitable thoughts intent." The plot is not very intricate, and there is little variety of incident; the chief attraction of the work consists In its lively and animated style, which, adorned with many a humorous anecdote, forms a striking contrast to the tone of sickly sentiment that pervades so many of our modern novels; and, if at times the expressions seem wanting in dignity and refinement, we must pardon these slight defects for th e sa k e o f t h e amusement a ff or d e d by the whole. Min g l e d w i t h t h e l i vely di scourses , w hich form the principal part of the work, we find many sen si')le ideas and thoughtful reflections. The last ch . a pter contains some r emar k s on cr i t i c i sm , an d a brief sum mary of the great divisions of the " public;" among others the following : greiae: : in ra g i:i t d i.: ly er,,,, " The readi unity in eng7 ---- --- ...p,:ublic is that portion of the coma, I which an author is chiefly interested • but this we fear is a disappearing; state to w fo i ri which be no read:r N s v in' a o e' s na f become a,..._"rs' `! had reached their height, the... 11 In the fifteenth cep.- ' itt, ,, ,'olpsnied by ury, when ignorance And barbarign the most ti- .;en, prejlt es o ' sse ss ,nutal,i)ltcillidlito,tislri.oesue:e iotinrsledr aonsphtiead:llyphptarf:oo: learning; those ages of profound ignorance and suporn2ion, ► IPas in even the slightest knowledge of Greek or Ilebreiry, ':argol l eonnted worie than the sin of heresy, and a scholastiCy ,ve Wdd 21'1 'rogue more unintelligible than the bombast of Iti. tics.
