February 3, 1845. late Government passed, the penny postage he con sidered to be the most valuable. It constituted the greatest boon that ever was conferred by any minister upon the people of this country.—(hear, hear.)—And now to return to soap. Although he had been in business in that city upwards of thirty years, that he thought was the first public meeting in which he had taken any active part, but, on being called upon, he could not refrain from giving his humble assistance to the ob ject of that meeting, which he considered to be one of the greatest importance to the well-being of the people of this country, and more particularly to the working classes. He quite agreed in the opinion that had been expressed, that the tax was objectionable on account of its inquisitorial character, and the many facilities it af forded for fraud. There were degrees in all things, but he thought the soap tax was the worst of all taxes. The tax on gin, for example, something might be said in favour of it. It might be said that the tax on gin was a tax on intemperance, but no such argument could be adduced in favour of the tax on soap. The tax upon soap was not a tax upon any vice, but it was a tax upon many virtues. It was a tax upon cleanliness, it was a tax upon clean faces, and a tax upon clean shirts. It had been justly said, that it fell heaviest upon the common d escr ip t i on o f soap, and hence, it cost the poor man nearly - double to wash his face or his shirt' than it did the Duke of Buckingham or Sir R. Peel. In the resolution whiehilutd. been placed in his hands, reference was made to the article of palm oil. Now, it would be known to some of them, that palm oil was an article exclusively imported from the coast of Africa, and chiefly in large quantities. It would be imported in still much larger quantities if, by taking off this tax, they were to extend the consumption of soap. Now, Sir Robert Peel talked occasionally of his great ab horrence of the slave-trade ; indeed, he did it so fre quently, that he was rather surprised that any man of his station should think it was necessary, at this time of day, to declare himself an enemy to the slave trade, because he should like to see the man now who was not.— (Hear, hear.) He should be glad if Sir Robert Peel would give them a little more substantial proof of his hostility to this trade than mere words. He thought he could point out to him a way in which he could effect this. Let him take off the duty on soap, by which he would increase the consumption of palm oil, an article produced by the labour and industry of the natives of the coast of Africa. The country expended many millions in the employment of armed forces on the coast of Africa for the suppression of the slave trade, but this had proved a complete failure ; nay, in many cases, it had aggravated the hor rors of the traffic. But, at all events, it could be only a temporary remedy. Now, by extending the trade of the coast of Africa, and giving employment to the natives at home, they would permanently suppress the trade at about one-eighth the sum at present expended for the purpose. In addition to palm oil, there was an article which had latterly sprung up on the coast yielding oil, which had been employed largely in the manufacture of soap. It was called ground nut, and produced a very excellent oil. He established a mill for the purpose of crushing the imported ground nuts ; but he was sorry to say the want of encouragement in the sale of the oil in this country had rendered the undertaking a compara tive failure. But what was the case with reference to France ? France now took nearly the whole of these ground nuts from Africa, amounting to many tons a year, but instead of its being crushed in London, it was now sent direct to France from the coast. Now, he had some reason to think that, were it not for the tax on soap in this country, which discouraged experiments and improvements, the soap manufacturers of England would be enabled to rival the manufacturers of France in the production of soap from that article. The Hon. Gentle man concluded by moving a resolution, declaring the soap tax to be injurious to the country, inasmuch as it lessened the consumption of the raw material, and gave the foreigner an advantage over the British menu fact urer. 4111CMCMIli ILSON'S SCOTTISH ENTERTAIN m E NTS.

On Saturday afternoon, a meeting of merchants and others interested in the manufacture of. soar, was held at the London Tavern, in Bi,shlsgate-street, for th e purpose of consid e ri ng ie beif nee - ans td be adopted to procure the repeal of the duty imposed on that neces sary article of domestic use. The meeting was very numerously attended, and ably presided over by Mr. William Hawes. Amongst ths influential gentlemen present were Mr. J. Hume, M.P., Mr. J. Paulson, M.P., Mr. T. J. Eger ton, M.P., Mr. T. A. Mitchell, M.P., Mr. M. Foster, M.P., Mr. B. Hawes, M.P., and Mr. Alderman Humphrey, M.P., besides several distinguished members of the commercial world. The CHAIRMAN in opening the business of the meet ing said, when the Committee of soap manufacturers took upon themselves the responsibility of calling a public meeting in the. City, to consider the operation of the excise duties on soap upon their trade, they little antici pated that an announcement in the speech of her Ma jesty would give theta so much cause for activity and encouragement ; nor did they either anticipate that her Majesty's Ministers would bring forward the budget so early as they intended to do. But as it was, they had little time to carry into effect the measures they might think it proper to adopt. The duty imposed on soap varied from 50 to 110 per cent. The first was placed upon the better quality of soap, and the latter upon the more common. Now they must be all aware that the poorer classes of society were most interested in this question, because from the general nature of their occu pations, it made it necessary that they should require a Liege quantity of soap. Was it not, then, to be deplored that they were compelled to pay from 110 to 111 per cent. for their soap, while the more affluent only had to pay from 60 to 80 per cent. ? Cleanliness promoted the comfort of man, and the m ora l welfare of the poor ; b ut ow i ng to these Excise dutiee, the poor, in many instances, were debarred from the use of soap at all. A ce l e b rated German professor, in so me o f hi s published letters, had declared that the extent of morality and civilisation of a nation might be tested by the amount of soap it consumed, and no doubt was an exceedingly good criterion on which to form a correct Opinion. The most moral and the mast civilised, it was reasonable to suppose, would consume the most soap. Now, with this reasoning before them, they had endeavoured to ascertain the consumption of soap in those countries where there was no duty at all. In Jersey and the Isle of Man, where the manufacture of a small quantity of the article was confined to one or two individuals, and the rest sup plied by importation, the comparison would be seen. In Jersey the amount was Nibs. per head, the population consistin; of one-fourth English visitors, and the rest of agriculturalists. In the Isle of Man the consumption was 91bs. per head, the population being principally employed in mines and fisheries. Until within the last year or two the consumption in England had never exceeded six pounds per head. This afforded them sufficient proof of the effect of the duty, and a conclusive argument against its continuance. This, however, was not the only objection to the tax. From the facilities it affords 6)r the committal of fraud upon the revenue, it had a natural tendency to encourage demoralisation in this re spect. Looking at the aggregate quantity consumed in this country, it was impossible to prove that more than five-fourths, or five sixths, paid the duty. Calculations to prove this, as well as to show that the great mass of the labouring population used no soap at all, but an in jurious su b st i tute f or i t , h a d b een submitted to Mr. M•Culloch, who was a good authority upon such a mat ter, because he was an advocate for the continuance of this duty. But advocating this duty as he did, he says the estimates of fraud were underrated; and even the Chairman of the Excise himself, admitted that it was quite impossible to prevent the commission of fraud in an article so easily manufactured as soap. Since the reign of Qeeen Anne little or no improvement had been introduced in the manufactur e of soap, owing to the ex istence of this duty; hut if they looked to other articles of consumption which had been relieved from the duty, they would find that the reverse had been the case. He might particularly instance the article of candles, in the mannfacture of which improvements were being made every day. It was on those grounds, there fore, that they asked to be relieved. Mr. T. A. MITCHELL, M.P., in moving the first re solution, remarked that, in the Queen's speech, the attention of the Legislature was directed to the sanatory condition of the poorer classes of this country ; and he thought nothing would tend so much to advance this ob ject as cheap soap. From the statement they had heard made by the Chairman, it would be seen that thepoor paid nearly double what the rich did fur their soap. Now all must admit that this one fact alone made manifest the gross injustice of the soap -tax. The mover of the address in reply to the speech from the Throne drew the particular attention not only of those around him, but of gentlemen of all classes, to the benevolent associations which were now being formed fur improving the condition of the working classes. Among them the Honourable Mover alluded more particularly to one which originated in Scotland, and was afterwards followed up in the me tropolis. He need hardly tell them it was the society for furnishing the poorer classes with baths and wash houses. When Mr. Charteris drew attention to this subject, he heard the Prime Minister most emphati cally cheer him, thereby giving his sanction to the ed sentiment that was expressed byby Mr. Char tens. Now he thought they had, therefore, strong grounds to call upon the Prime Minister to contribute his quantum towards carrying out that object. If the Right Hon. Baronet considered it was an object of such importance, let him contribute to it by taking off the duty on soap, and thereby reducing, by one-half, the price of one of the most necessary articles of life. That was the strongest ground which they could take against this tax. There was a surplus in the t evenue of 3,300,0001.; the duty on soap, he believed, did not bring in more than a fourth of the sum placed at the disposal of the Government. They all contributed largely to wards placing the revenue in this satisfactory state, in the shape of an income-tax ; and if it were to be conti nued, at any rate they oug ht to have the gratification of knowing that the poor of the country derived some benefit, in return for the sacrifices they were making themselves. Ile concluded by moving a resolution, in effect declaring the soap duty to be impolitic and unjust. Mr. HUBBARD seconded the resolution. When he was first asked to attend that meeting, he did not con sent without first giving deliberate consideration to the subject, because he felt that a large degree of responsi bility attached to persons who sought for the removal of a tax which contributed so much to make np the required revenue of the country. le e confessed, however, that this responsibility appeared to be very little felt by the community at large, for there was hardly a tax producing any amount of revenue, the abo lition of which had not been recently proposed. Tallow, tea, coffee, and sugar, had been amongst the list of arti• ales for which the Minister of the Crown had been re quired to make concessions, and within a very recent period, meetings had been held to ask for a repeal of the duties impos e d on raw cotton, paper , the window tax, and the malt-tax, all bringing to the exchequer an aggregate sum of 7,500,0001. Now, it trust be quite ob vious that in the present state of the public revenue, only one of thes e t axes cou ld be conceded. They knew indeed that the income-tax was now announced to be continued for a limited period, but he could not conceive that this period would extend beyond that originally mentionel—namely, five years. But, then, the 10,000,0001. which would be produced from this tax would be very easily absorbed by the expenses the Go vernment had promised to incur for the benefit of the country. It was their intention, he believed, to form harbours of refuge on the coast, one of which, it was estimated, would cost from two to three millions ster ling. It appeared, th• refore, that unless tee income-tax was to be perpetuated, it was utterly hopeless to expect any large remission of the taxes he had named. With these facts before him, he would not have risen to second the resolution, had he not been persuaded that they had a paramount claim upon the consideration of the Go vernment. The deficiency might be made up by doubling the amount of postage. The penny postage e, as certainly an excellent thing, but he did not think an increase to twopence w ou ld b e productive of any h arm . —(Cries of " Question, question," " Soap, soap.") At all events, in the present state of their fiscal regulations, they could not take off one duty without providing for it in another way. Ireland was without a soap tax, and perhaps this would open a field for gathering th e d es ticiency. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. Mr. M. FOSTER, M. P., quite agreed with the meet ing in thinking they must stick to soap.—(Laughter.) At all events, he hoped Sir Robert Peel would not take the hint e hich had just been thrown oat with referenpe to the penny postage. --(Hear, hear.)—Of all the mea. sures that were passed by the late Governm en t, t h e most poi tag,e_ ( I fear, beneficial was th e p enn y hear.)—And if they had passed that measure alone, it would have been sufficient to entitle them to the eternal gratitude of this country ; and he repeated, of all the pleasures which the TO FARMERS AND MARKET GARDENERS.

The hands at all the mills in Heywood left their work last night, the terms of arrangement offered by the masters having been rejected. The masters have posted large placards throughout the town and neighbourhood, of which the following is a copy :—" Many erroneous reports having been circulated relative to the earnings of the weavers late in the employ of Messrs. John Hilton Kay and Son, the Committee of the Mill -owners' Asso ciation think it necessary, in justice to those gentlemen, to lay before the public a statement of such earnings, as copied from the wage books for the fortnight ending the 22d of November last (being what may be called the last full fortnight previous to the turn-out.) The fol lowing are the averages :—for 58 two- loom weavers, per fortnight, 19s. Id., per week, 9s. W.; for 56 three loom weavers, average per fortnight, IL Bs.

There are no abatements from the above, except for spoiled work, and the whole deductions on that day amounted to only 1L Bs. 9d. The earnings, as stated above, were obtained at the prices per cut paid previously to the weavers turning out ; and from the amount, the public will be able to judge whether such a step was justifiable or not. Since the turn-out, however, the Messrs. Kay, wishing to put an end to such a state of things, and also to prevent a more general stoppage of mills in the neighbourhood on their account, have made several attempts to come to terms with their weavers, but hitherto without success." Friday Evening.—The turn-outs have posted copies of a placard throughout the town this afternoon, intended as a reply to the statements of the masters. It gives the amount of wages paid by Messrs. Hilton, Kay, and Son, for the fortnight ending the 17th Dec. as for 59 two-loom weavers, average Bs. Id. per week ' • and 41 three l oom weavers, average 12s. 84d. per week. According to the masters, however, this was net a full fortnight, and hence the difference. About five o'clock last night a number of the county police from Bury arrived, and are to be stationed in the town during the strike. When our reporter left Heywood last evening, the magistrates were assembled at the Queen Anne Inn, and had just determined against swearing in special constables, which had been previously arranged.

" I say," said the first, in the Post-office yard, " Our duties just now are remarkably hard ; I wish that St. Valentine's season wer 3 over, For it plays a sad game with a Post-office rover. 'Tie all very well for the feminine beauties, But as tor the postmen, it trebles their duties. I really have so many letters to carry, That I wish it were out of the fashion to marry." " Well done !" said the other poor postman, " well done But what do you say about MOSES and SON?

Yes—the cloth, and the cut, and the heautiffil stitching Ara such as make gentlemen truly bewitching. And then, as a consequence, ladies are smitten, And that's why so many epistles are written; Were I to assume such charming costume, I should very soon hear from some feminine bloom."

MOSES and SON'S premises in Aldgate, the entrance to their Establishment is only at 154, Minories. A new work, entitled " THE COMMERCIAL PHENOMENON," with full directions for Self-Measurement, on application, will be forwarded post free. Mr. Toast seconded the resolution in a few words, re marking that the subject had been so well " washed," that he was afraid he should only mangle it if he detained the meeting longer. Mr. J. HUME, M.P., spoke to the resolution.—He said that invited as he had been by the Committee to attend there, he could not refuse his assent, although he had been otherwise particularly engaged for that day. But, as it was a subject to which he had directed a good deal of attention, and as he had laboured long, and anxiously waited for the period when effect was to be given to the principles he had all his life advocated, he was more than usually anxious to be present on that occasion, in order to give his opinion as to this tax, and the measures which ought to be taken to obtain its repeal. He could not help thinking that if the soap manufacturers had adopted the recommendation he gave them twenty years ago, they would have had this tax taken off long ago. One of the speakers who had gone before him had advo cated indirect taxation. Now he held quite a contrary opinion, for he could not see the justice of the principle which increased the price of a commodity the nearer it approached the consumer. He had lived to see some, and he still expected to see more, of the restrictions imposed on the industry of the country entirely removed. In 1821, being then a comparatively young Member, he brcught forward in the House of Commons a plan of finance, which he humbly submitted to the Go vernment as an improvement upon their fiscal regulations, which at the time pressed with great injustice epon the industry of the nation. Since then he had had the plea sure of seeing the tax on candles, the tax on salt, and the tax on leather, once three of the heaviest burdens on the people, taken off. The tax on soap in that day amounted to 932,0001., on leather to 588,0004 on candles to 380,000/., and on salt to 152,9001. Now he had seen all these taken off with the exception of the soap tax, which in 1833 was reduced from 28s. to 145., and this he thought was enough to encourage the meeting to go on in the work they had commenced. Immediately after these reductions were made, the City of London met to ex press their thanks to him for the steps he had taken in 1821 ; but, he regretted to say, the soap manufacturers neglected anufacturers neglected to come forward, a lth oug h th e agitation in re spect of the other articles of manufacture he had men tioned became general. It had b een sai d that they took off one tax they must find another to replace it. He could not agree in this reasoning, and he was satisfied, if the Excise department were abolished altogether, and only two taxes allowed to remain, and those on malt and spirits, the country would sustain no injury from the step. The Government were in a position, at the present mo ment, to take off all the taxes that pressed upon the manufacturer, and the course he was anxious should be taken was this, that the soap manufacturer should not fight against the glass, nor the glass against the soap, he paper against either, but that they should all unite to obtain a removal of the restrictions imposed on them, on the ground that they were indirect taxes. No workmen deserved so much encouragement as those of England. There was not a more persevering or pains -taking class of men on the face of the earth, and, from the highest to the lowest, the industry they evinced entitled them to success. What r i g h t, t h en, had the Government to place restrictions on their labour ? Let them be epee and free to compete with any and every labour -market in the world, and not make them pay more for the common necessaries of life than the French, or any other It was on ese grounds tats wld en courage them to go on. Without agon ou in this country nothing could be done, and therefore it was he called upon them to redouble their efforts. Let them not look upon the paper-makers as their enemies, but join with them in seeking a common object, and that object direct, instead of indirect taxation. They were now in a different situation to what they were in 1821, and if they went on there was every reason to believe they would free themselves from the persecutions imposed on them by the working of the Excise laws. Let them attain this grand object, and they would find their soap carrried even to America, who was their principal oppo nent in the foreign market. The resolution was then put and carried unanimously. A petition to Parliament against the tax was then agreed to, on the motion of Mr. W. GLADSTONE, se conded by Mr. CATLEY, and the petition was directed to be entrusted for presentation to Mr. J. Masterman, M.P., and Lord John Russell, and the other City Mem bers requested to support it. Mr. J. PATTISON, M.P., in moving a vote of thanks to the Chairman, promised to give the petition his support. The motion was seconded by Mr. HunnEno, and carried by acclamation. The CHAIRMAN briefly acknowledged the compliment, and the meeting broke up. FATAL AND WICKED CARE natio LESSNESS. On Tuesday an inquest was held at the Commercial Inn, Burnley, on the body of Patrick Markey, hatter, who came by his death under the following circum stances :—lt appears that during the preceding week he felt rather unwell, and not sufficiently recovering, had been recommended to try arrowroot and milk as a remedy. Accordingly on Saturday last, about two o'clock, he sent his 1% ite to Mr. Heaton's, chemist and druggist, Goodham Hill, Burnley, fur a quantity of the powdered root. Mr. Heaton, jun., and the assistant, being both absent, and there not being any arrowroot in the drawer in which it was usually kept town stairs, Mr. Heaton, senior, took the scoop out of the drawer, and proceeded upstairs to a tub in which he supposed the arrowroot was, and brought some arsenic out of the tub down in the scoop, asking the shop-boy if he thought that was arrowroot. The boy, having tasted it, said he thought not, as it appeared to be too gritty for arrow root. Mr. Heaton, having also tasted it, replied that he thought it was arrowr ) of an inferior description, kept by his son to sell at the small shops. Eventually the woman was served with two ounces of arsenic. About the same time two other persons, one named Parley, of Huncoat, were served with small quantities of the same poison. On the return of Mr. Hopwood, the assistant, the mistake was discovered and the utmost dispatch used to recover the deadly mixtures. They were successful in two of the cases, but unfortunately the deceased had swallowed nearly an ounce of the poison about five minutes before the messenger arrived at his residence. Medical assistance was immediately called in and the stomach pump and other remedies applied, but in vain, and he lingered in excruciating agony until about six in the evening, when he expired. A verdict of " Man slaughter" was returned against William Heaton, and John Curl, the shop-boy.—Blackburn Standard. CAPTURE OF TWO DASHING SWINDLERS. A few days ago the inhabitants of Tonbridge, Kent, were visited by two fashionably-dressed persons, under the assumed names of the Hon. Captain and Lady Stewart. They took up their abode at the Queen's Arms Hotel, and had not been long there before they called at different tradesmen's shops and gave extensive orders for valuable jewellery and clothes of the very best descrip tion. The dress and appearance of the strangers were well calculated to lull suspicion as to their real characters, and they succeeded in obtaining two gold watches, chains, rings, and pins, of various descriptions, which were paid for with checks on the London and County Bank (a check-book of which the " gentle man " carried in his pocket), and filled up in the presence of the unsuspecting tradesmen, from whom he generally obtained five or ten pounds, the balance of the amount of the check. They carried on their de predations with great success until Thursday morning last, when several boxes were removed to the railway station, addressed to Mr. Dittmar, London, to be left at the terminus at London until called for. The removal of so many boxes caused some suspicion, and inquiries were instantly sent to London respecting the checks, when it was ascertained that the party was known there only as a swindler, several applications having arrived at the bank from various parts of the country respecting them. On the return of the messenger from London it was discovered that the parties had absconded. An officer was dispatched by the railway after the fugitives, who had walked a short distance from Tonbridge, where they had a conveyance in waiting, and in which they were driven off to London. Yesterday Moy and Blad ford, of tho M division, secured the prisoners at the rail way terminus, where they had arrived to carry away their luggage. The whole of the boxes were seized by the police, and found to contain jewellery and dresses worth between 2001. and 3001. On the male prisoner was found a gold watch and chain, a blank cheque-book of the London and County Bank, and thirty sovereigns. On the female was also found another gold watch and chain. They were taken into custody by an officer from Tonbridge, and conveyed back by railway to that place, where they will undergo an examination on Monday. THREE YEARS IN CONSTANTINOPL E ; OR, DO MESTIC MANNERS 0F THE TURKS. BY CHARLES WRITE, ESQ.—Mr. White resided long enough in Con stantinople to make himself familiar, not only with the outward features of the city, but with the domestic lives, customs, prejudices, and modes of thought of its inhabitants. His book is, therefore, to be taken as the production of one having authority. He had abundant opportunities of studying the people among whom he was thrown, and he has used them with great diligence, pPrseverance, and intelligence. These " Three Years in Constantinople" may, indeed, be safely taken as a text book with respect to Turkey, its people, and its man ners. The very amplitude and minuteness of detail with which it abounds constitute much of the value of a work professing to give a full and complete view of Constanti nople as it exists—of its inhabitants, in their streets, in their bazaars, and in their homes. Mr. White's useful work is well worthy of the attentive study of all who would know Tur:.ey as it is. Full, searching, oomplete, it will dissipate many prejudices, dispel many - vague no tions popularly entertained of the much maligned Turks.—Morning Chronicle.

The natural resources of this fine country in the South Pacific are eatirely unknown to the generality of Europeans, whose knowledge of America does not extend beyond Mexieo, Columbia, Brazils, and Buenos Ayres—the Atlantic side of that part of the new world ; whilst the South has been till lately but little frequented, and particularly Chili, which is, without exception, one of the most fertile and most productive parts of that vast continent. The mountains, or cordilleras, abound with mines of gold, silver, pietism, iron, copper, tin, lead, and other valuable metals, which only require the enterprising hand of Europeans to ex plore, to render it one of the most profitable speculations in a commercial point of view. Its plains and verdant valleys produce corn and every description of grain, and fruits in abundance ; and in the southern districts are inexhaustible forests of most useful trees, for building, &c. The breeding of horned cattle, horses, and sheep is at present the principal resource of its hard-working and industrious peasantry ; but the introduction of European machinery is wauting to reap the golden harvest now hidden and lost. It is worthy of remark, that notwithstanding the in testine civil wars which have raged for years throughout the whole of South America, Mexico, and Buenos Ayres, the republic of Chili has been iu a state of the most happy tranquillity for the last fifteen years, governed by prudent and sihatebitious patriots, supported uy a peaceful and industrious population, and is, per haps, the only one of the r e p u bli cs t h at h as kept its faith to the merchants of this country, by duly honouring the loans she has contracted, and which has kept up her credit in the money-market or stock exchange. We are happy to learn that the Government of that country have commissioned one of their first engineers, and Director-general of Public Work s, lion Hilario a most scientific officer, to examine the different improve ments in public roads, machinery, hydraulics, mining, manufactures, &c., that have taken place of late years in Europe, so as to make a full report thereon, to enable his Government to adopt those that will be most advantageous and beneficial to the country. To carry this grand pro ject into eff ec t, Senor Hilitrio Puliui ha s lately visited_- the different iron foundries and machineries at Liver pool, Manchester, Birmingham, Sheffield, and the mining districts, with the object of introducing machinery, rail roads, and other British inventions applicable to the re sources offered by Chili, and for the working of her rich mines. One principal project is tocstablish a railway from the port of Valparaiso, passing by the towns of Guillota, San Felipe de Aconcagua, to Santiago, the capital, a distance of 44 leagues, or 135 miles, which will be performed in five hours instead of twenty four to thirty hours by the usual conveyance; thereby opening a quick communication between one of the most flourishing seaports in the South Pacific and the interior. To carry this grand project into effect the above -named engineer has, by special order, made a very minute survey of a line for rails, of the different points, &c., and he has found that there will be no difficulty in accomplishi ng it, a 9 one part o f the line will b e a l ong t h e sea coast, and the other folloyving the river De Aconca gua, thereby avoiding two mountains that were consi dered a fatal obstacle. The scientific knowledge and perseverance of this engineer have now insured the ac complishment of this important undertaking, which will be of the greatest advantage to that country. We are informed that several respectable parties in London and Liverpool have made very advantageous offers to form a company to carry this important project into effect, under the auspices of the Government, which will be happy to render every assistance towards its completion by granting every concession. The Agricultural Society of this Re public, some time ago, formed a sub scr i pt i on to establish a society under the title of " Society of Industry and Colo nisation," for the southern part ; but they were not able to realise what they wanted for this object by the issuing of shares; since which, however, several individuals in this country have offered to advance fends at a moderate interest. The great drawback to the prosperity of this influen tial Republic is, that the interior of it, and its topogra phical and statistical resources are not generally known for the want of a correct map of that part of the State, so as to be able to judge of the prolificness of its soil, and the advantages offered ; and this neces sity being daily more felt, it is to be hoped that that enlightened Government will have a general survey of the country taken, on the return of this engi neer. As he will have to make various surveys for the extension of the roads and canals, a map of the whole country could be taken at a small expense, as the pro perties are not much divided, and it is to be desired that the railway company, when established, will appropriate a small sum annually for the completion of this im portant undertaking. In doing which, a geological sur vey of its mineral riches might be made, as it abounds in riches, which at present are in virgin ground that has never been explored, and the interior of which is un known. Its agriculture is one of the most prosperous, giving 40 to tio per cent. Copper, flax, hides, gold, and silver, are the staple commodities lei exportation, Senor Pulini has had ne little treuble in compiling a series or reports on the public buildings, prisons, hospitals, and manufactories of this country, and particularising those that will be most alepted to Chili, which have been the result of the greatest labour. This Commission having be :. , n confided to him, there is no doubt of great improve ments being made by his intelligent Government on his return, and it is pleasing to find that they have such art experienced officer in that part of the southern hemis phere to advance the prosperity of his country and its inhabitants. He has eommueicated, since his stay in England, some very important problems on different subjects hitherto undissolved in Europe, one respecting observations made by the barometer, which must be four inches longer than in this country to be exact in America, and rendering the needle of the compass cor rect in South America, which is not expressed in any tables published, as well as its inclination. In taking levels no proper distinction has been made between the true and the apparent, and the refreeton of lieht, &0., which have hitherto been incomprehensible. These he has been able to expound by remedying all these phe nomena, and raising his plans with the greatest correct ness, and no doubt his operations will be duly appre ciated by his Government on his return to Chili, so that he may give those informations for the welfare of his country. The progress of emigration in Chili has been most extraordinary since that Republic has been firmly estab lished and had an uninterrupted peace for the last fifteen years. Formerly the vessels only used to bring ten, twenty, or thirty passengers per annum, but last year there were no less than 500 emigrants arrived from New . South Wales in four ships, all experienced English arti sans or mechanics, who immediately obtained employ ment. The revenues of the Government since that period have more than doubled, and its credit has ad vanced with a most extraordinary rapidity in Europe. In London at present, its bonds are at 105, which every one knows are punctually paid. Tho liberty and se curity of its subjects is observed in the strictest manner, and although the religion of the State is Roman Catholic, those of a different creed are unmolested in their wor. ship. Wheat is at four to five shillings per cwt ; pota toes two shillings ; beef, &c. at twopence per lb.; poul try, fish, fruit, and every description of vegetables, ex tremely cheap. It i s on l y necessary to know the moun tains or cordilleras to discover its mineral riches, which are most extensive, and are at present unexplored, and any enterprising speculators could easily obtain, at an expenditure of 3,0001. to 4,0001., a correct survey of this valuable range of mineral treasure, gold, silver, platina, iron, copper, &c., now buried in the earth, as every facility would be given by the Government to work the mines. The Pacific Steam Navigation Company at Val paraiso has proved an excellent speculation, and two more steamers are being built in this country for that station, and when 'the railway is established from that port to Santiago, the advantages to English enterprise for mining will be immense.
