This lady had the following letter Inserte4 in the "'Limes" news paper on Ai;g. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this ietter was put Into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. 3irs. lveekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor iunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, or the Herber), High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Itegenera•or, In having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using It about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and more luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekiey inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an Ils. bottle it they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perierxe, not only in the restoration and production of hair in akund ance, but a 4 a cure of nervous headache; as a toilet perfume it is tar beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above tact. -3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops 0.1 the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and - irevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A few droos on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product of the most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing )dour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion o the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops n the crown of the hea I; if v ry bad, repeat it every quarter of an our. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces air on children's heads in a few appplic itions. It used on infants' earls, it has such a peculiar cooling influence on the brain as to pre vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair. —see pamphlet of testimonials.

NAVAL INTELLIGENCE. PORTSMOUTH, SUNDAY.—The Frolic, 16, Commander C. 13. Hamilton, was paid off yesterday in a manner so oecLrly and expeditiously as never to have been equalled st this port. The high estimation in which Commander Hamilton held his crew mss be judged from the tact of their having had leave granted them on the day prior to paying off to go ashore, and returning to the ship per fectly sober, and within the time allowed them—a cir eunaqance in itself so perfectly illustrative of the excel lent discipline of the vessel that we deem it worthy of so cial comment. It is a feature which never came un for our observation in connexion with any other ship paid off at this port. The Frolic, after tour years and a half service on the South American station, has returned home with the same masts aad rigging she went out with—a tact which in these days of dockings and re-dockings (e%ery alternate month with some vessels) speaks very forcibly to favour of her construc tion. She has been exceedingly nealthy, and outsailed some of the lltstest merchantuseu afloat. This is her first commission, having been built at this port in 1842 upon the design of Captain Hendry, R.N. She is of 511 tons. The Vengeance, 84, Captain S. Lushington, is rapidly fitting for sea-going service. A further deiaLlunent of marines, with Lieutenants Aslett and Ward, joined yesterday. Commander Althaw, late of the flarship Winchester, is appointed to her, slid Lieutenant Rogers, her First Lieutenant, is appointed First of tae St. Vincent.

The Pandora spok,- the North Star, from St. Übes, bound to the Baltic, off Dunnose, on the 12th hist., ten days out. The Alarm, 26, Captain Lock, was at Saerificios on the 29th, with the yellow fever on board. Mr. Lowe, her Second Lieutenant, was one of tie earliest victims. She was about to put to sea at the date of our letter to recruit the health of her ship's company, but she cannot remain long absent, Captain Lock being senior officer. 'I he Fairy royal yacht having been re-embellished, was undocked yesterday, re-masted, and removed from the basin to her moorings. The Polyphetnus steam-sloop Commander M•Cle verty, is ready to leave at half an hour's notice with dis patches for Lisbon. Captain M'Cleverty took those he brought on Thursday to the Adrairalty himself, per spe cial engine, on the South. Western Railway. The Poly • phemus made a splendid passage from Lisbon to this harbour, having performed the journey in three nays and fifteen hours ' - one day was very foul, which makes the time occupied in performing the journey longer thau it otherwise would have been. This is the quickest run made between Lisbon and this port since the commences ment of the Portuguese revolution. Captain M'Cleverty is expected down this evening with the dispatches. The Daring, 12, Commander Peel, was at Vera Cruz on the 2d of May. The Persian, 16, Commander Cory n, lert Jamaica on the 27th of April to relieve her, when she would proceed to Halifax. Ilia Swedish and Norwegian Majesty's ship Fredieks yarn, Captain Count de Trampe, is expected at this port. She has been in the Downs some days. The experimental squadron seem slow in getting to Spithead, the St. Vincent and Howe being the only members at present at that rendezvous. The Vengeance, Avenger, and Odin, are getting ready with all dispatch in the harbour and basin. THE PACIFIC STATION. The Collingwood, 80, Captain Smart, flag of Rear- Admiral Sir G. Seymour, Commander-in-Chief, was at Callao on the 14th of April, a letter of which date says, " We sailed from Valparaiso on the 25th of March, and arrived here on the 3d of April, all well and comfortable. W e expect to remain at Callao about two months more, then sail for Valparaiso, and arrive there in August, refit, and wait for our relief, which having arrived, we sail for England." The Herald, 26. Captain Kellett; the Pandora, 10, Lieutenant-Commander Wood; and the Sampson steam frigate, Captain Henderson, were at Panama on the 23d of A pril. The Spy, brigantine, Lieutenant-Commander Wool dridge, was at Callao on the 21st April, having arrived prior to the 12th from Otaheite, touching at Pitcairn's Island (where everything was flourishing) and Val paraiso. The Cormorant steam-sloop, Commarder Seymour, was at Arica Bay on the 23d of April, collecting freight for the Collingwood to bring home. The Grampus, 50, Captain H. B. Martin, was at Otaheite on the 10th of February. The Otaheiteans at that date had surrendered the island to the French. The Juno, 26. Captain B'ake, left Otaheite on the 4th February, for the Navigator's Islands. The Constance, 50, Captain Sir B.

Woomszca, JUNE 13.—The importance of the royal steam navy to this country, and the great responsibility devolving on the engineers of that branch of bar Ma jesty's service, having rendered it advisable to hold out greater inducements than have hitherto been offered, to insure talented and fully competent engineers remaining in the royal navy, when great advantsgee and high pay were offered by private companies, and high rank and pay by foreign Governments, the following roles and re gulations have been made, for the benefit of the engi been plea se d b y h er O r d er i n February to s anct i on a new clas sificationnears of the royal steam navy of Great Britain: " Admiralty May 31, 1847. for engineers in the royal navy, with certain Co ‘ u ‘ ri nc e i r l ofM a t j h e e s t 2 y 7 th havi ng o alterations as to the appointment, rank, and pay of the e officers, I am commanded by the Lords Commissioners of the Admiralty to transmit to you the accompanying copies of the rules and regulations respecting the exa mination, rank, pay, and appointment of engineers under the new establishment. But at the same time I am to acquaint you that all engineers at present in the service are to be continued at their present scale of pay and al lowances, rank, and denomination, until they shall be promoted into the new establishment, when they are to be furnished with p ay ay documents up to that date, and their names are to removed on the ship's books from the fourth list Warrant Officers,' to the second list Commission Officers,' civil branch. Th ose engineers who draw bills for their pay as warrant officers may include the resid ue o f t h at pay i n the fi rst quarterly bill they may draw on the new esta blishment, great care being taken that the period of ser vice and the amount of pay ou each list be clearly distin guished on the bill; but those who have not drawn bills, having allotment in force, are to draw their quarterly bills from the date of promotion only, and the captain or commanding officer is to notify without loss of time, by letter, to the Secretary of the Admiralty, the date of promotion, in order that the allotments may be stopped. " By command of their Lordships, " H. G. WARD." BOATS ON THE SERPENTINE.—Lord Morpeth, in the present dearth of employment for watermen on the Thames, has granted permission to some of them to ply and let boats on the Serpentine, on every day during the week except Sunday. but nut during the hours set apart for bath ing. Regulations have been issued, with his Lordship's sig nature, which provide that no party shall exceed six, includ ing children. Each boat to be provided with a life-buoy or cork cushion. The fares are to be 2s. an hour, and no hiring fir less than an hour, except to cross the river, for which the fare is to be 6d. for three persons, or Is. for more than three. If his Lordship would add a floating orchestra to row gently up and down the river on a "summer's evening," he would ncrease the attraction. NORFOLK.

LIVERPOOL, SUNDAY NIGHT, Half-past Nine o'clock. The British and North American royal mail steam-ship Britannia, Captain Harrison, entered the river to-night at nine o'clock, after one of the most rapid passages ever made by this celebrated line of stearn-ships ; and it may be here noted as a remark able fact that this same ship has sailed from Boston on the Ist of June for the last four years, and arrived at Liverpool on the 13th, as she does this day, estab lishing for herself the character of being as punctual in her arrival as the railway mails in England. The Britannia brings 112 passengers, and the mails from Canada and the United States to the Ist instant. Her able commander, Captain Harrison, was highly complimented by his passengers, on his speedy arrival off Liverpool. The Britannia news is fifteen days later than pre viously reeived. On boarding the Britannia, we learnt from the passengers that the Washington would positively leave 1\ ew York on the same day as that of the Britannia, the Ist inst., so that the arrival of these two vessels have excited no little interest at Liverpool, and other commercial towns west of London. The political news by this arrival is not essentially important. From the seat war, the latest was by way of Orleans, which is given in a paper of that city, and which states that— " Letters dated Walnut Springs, May 3d, giv e attacked a ft r e _ a e ybe a t t w ta een Sal ad t p t h o e r t p t lt h s a s t of Colonel a D G o o n r i d p o h n a , n ' a s b f o o u rc t ehhalhalf-way w ben tillo and Chihuahua, by a Mexican f orce f rom Duran go under General Rieso. Colonel Doniphan was d e f eated , with the loss of seven men and all his artillery. An Eng lish gentleman, who arrived at Saltillo on the 3d March, says Colonfl Doniphan, started from Chihuahua on the Ist of April, via San Jose del Parral, and, Saltillo papers think that his command must be within a few days' march of that place. General Cadwallader and staff, Col. Ramsay, Major Morgan, Captains Carr, Syberg, Butler, Bernard, and others had arrived at Palo Alto. General Cadwal lader forthwith pr..ceeded with his command, except the dragoons, to Vera Cruz to reinforce General Scott. The Court of Inquiry in the cases of General Lane and Co lonel Bowles has given its report. The conduct of the former is fully approved, and the personal courage but not the capacity of the latter. The latest Monterey Pioneer thinks that an advance on San Lais is designed by General Taylor, as unusual activity prevails in every department. General Urrea has issued proclamations for men and contributions, and left for the city of Mexico, so says the Matamoras Flag of the 15th of May. Vera CI uz dates to the evening of the 15th of May, fur nish nothing later from General Scott." A New York commercial paper of the latest date says— " The situation of our public affairs, and especially of the war in Mexico, has undergone little or no change since the departure of the steamer of the 16th of May. Owing to the expiration of their terms of s+ rvice, five regiments of volunteers, of these one of cavalry attached to the army under General Scott, were at the latest dates from Jalapa, of 11th May, about to take up their line of March for Vera Crux, thence to return to the United States, there to be mustered out of service. This diminution of a force previouly too small in number to render otherwise t an very hazardous, upon the ordinary principles of vi,ar, an advance into the heart and against the capital of an eaemy's country, necessarily compelled General Scott to suspend that advance, and accordingly he was yet at Jalapa. Some of the new levies would soon reach Vera Cruz, and thence be hurried into the interior, as well to avoid the pestilence of the yellow fever on the coast, as to enable the General to pursue his victorious march to Mexico. The Washington Union gives the assurance that in the mouth of June General Scott will have an army of 20,000 men. " Without waiting for reinforcements, however, General Scott was pushing his column on to Puebla, where no resistance will probably be attempted. lie had issued a striking and well-timed proclamation to the Mexicans, announcing his advance, and dispelling the misrepresentations and delusions, by virtue of which their own ambitious but incapable generals and magis trates still sought to stimulate them to continue hos tilities. "In the capital of Mexico complete anarchy seems to prevail. The latest dates from 'ho cps 'y 0.t7 clic, 4Ln or sth of , when Mlle or no preparations for defence were making. Indeed, money, munition, arms, and men, all seem to be wanting. The Substitute Pre•ident Anaya had declared the city under martial law, but his term of service would expire on the 15th of May, when a perma nent President was to be regularly chosen. Meanwhile the better portion of the population was leaving the city, and the Government itself is said to have made all its prep rations, as soon as the Americans shall advance, to rem.ve with the archive of the State to Morelia. " Santa Anna was still at Orizaba, talking big and doing little or nothing to justify his words. Some ap prehension was fora moment entertained at Vera Cruz, where the American garrison is very small, that he me ditated falling upon:that place—between which and Gen. Scott's army he is—but later advices_had re-assured the garrison, and they, moreover, had put and kept every thing in condition to resist such an attack. A more tempting, because an easier and very rich prize, would be offered to his enterprise, if indeed he have any, by a monstrous waggon train with provision and ammunition, and some half a million of dollars in gold, which was to leave Vera Cruz for Jalapa, about the 20th, es corted by not more than a thousand men. If Santa Anna have really the force he is represented to have, of four or five thousand infantry and cavalry, there will seem no sort of excuse if he do not attempt to intercept land capture this train, yet little or no solicitude is telt for its safety, so little is the belief in Santa Anna's daring. As an additional security to the train, how ever, General Scott has so ordered its advance, and the return march of some of the volunteer regiments whose time is expir:ng, that at least one of these regiments will encamp every night with a train, in addition to its proper escort. " From the Pacific we hear that all the smaller ports on the peninsula of California had been taken possession .f by vessels of the American squadron, and that they were peacefully held." The most important portion of the intelligence by this arrival relates to the COMMERCIAL. On the departure of the Britannia commerce was flourishing in all the commercial cities of the union. The forthcoming crops of corn and grain were most promising, money plentiful, the credit of the Govern ment stocks good, and all the State stocks, including even those of the non-paying states, are becoming more valuable. Exchange on Europe continues at a rate which forbids the further importation of speciee. Bills on London range from 6i to 7i ; on Paris from 5 32} to 5 30. Freights—To Europe are dull, and rates have fallen i,ff. Flour is taken by British ♦essels at 2s. There is very little offering for Havre, and our quotations may he considered nominal.

The best brands of Southern Flour sold last week for home use, in the market, for 91 dolls. per bbl.; and Genesee, for exportation, at from 8 dolls. 50 c. to 8 dole. 75c.; Wheat brought 2 dolls. 5 c. per bushel of 60 lbs., and Indian Corn 1 doll. 8 c. a 1 dol. 12 c. for yellow, per bushel of 56 lbs. There is some little pause at present in these prices, yet contracts have been freely made to pay for these staples deliverable from June to August, prices equal to, for Flour 8 dolls. 50 c. to 8 dolls.; from 2 dolls. in June, to 1 doll. 65 c. in August • for Indian Corn, from 1 doll. 2 c. in June , to 97 c. i n July, and 92 c. In August. All this shows great confidence in a continued foreign demand at high prices, and is the more remarkable be cause the arrivals daily from the canal are very heavy, equalling 30,000 to 35,000 barrels a day for many consecu tive days, and the account from the interior makes it evi dent that the stocks are larger than was before generally estimated. The total of our exports of bread-stuffs from the United States to Great Britain, since 1-t September to 21st inst. last, are, say two million barrels of 200 lbs. of flour ; 585.000 lbs. corn meal; 1,802,000 bushels of 601bs. of ~heat.; and 1,180,000 bushels of 56 lbs. of Indian corn.

Nevertheless, as the consumption in Europe seems to have fallen off so considerably, it may be well to see how much cotton will arrive in Great Britain in the year, commencing on Ist January—as this may be a much more important circumstance than the probability of our crop falling below 1,800,000, of which there cannot now be much if any doubt. 1646-7 1645-6 Exported to Groat Britain as above • . • • • . • • • • „ .. 606 735 Received In Great Britain before 3let December • • 46 155 To arrive in Great Britain, alter 31st December.. 559 580 Thus we see that though our export is very deficient, this year's import of Great Britain will be (ceteris pa,. pßieß SD. ribus) only 21,000 short of the corresponding period of last year. It is evident, therefore, that unless the rate of con sumption in Europe rallies up very materially this sum mer, it will require great firmness on the part of holders to withstand the effect of the increasing stock of the raw material in Liverpool.

We now learn that the rancheros, or guerillas, bad been very trouble some near Vera Cruz; two hundred of them had been followed by Walker and his rifles, and four killed; six United States dragoons had been killed by there people on tne previous day. The Mexican Congress had re fused the mediation of England by a vote of 44 to 33. The returned officers of volunteers in this city tell me that, in their opinion, there is no chance of peace—not even if the capital be taken; but they think there will be no more pitched battles. Four of the states north of Mexico talk of separating and be coming a new republic wider our protection, but per haps this report is but a weak invention of the enemy. The American officers, who are prisoners is Mexico, are reported to br. well treated ; but the capital and Go vernment are fall of confusion, and will not send Santa Anna a dollar, though he tells them that he has rallied 7,000 men at Orizaba.

Her Majesty's packet Swift, Lieutenant Long, arrived last night from the Brazils, having left Rio de Janeiro on the 13th of April, Bahia on the 20th of April, and Pernambuco on the Ist of May. She brings on freight about 10,0001., and the following passengers, via.:—Lord A. Beauclerk, late of her Majesty's ship Curacoa ; Captain Thompson, late of Curaqoa ; Captain Proctor, late of Harpy, Mr. and Mrs. Hapley, Mr. Sanville, Mr. D. Last, Mr. De Castro, Mr. Plowes, Mr. Finnie, Mr. Murray, Mr. Ramsden, Royal Navy ; also Dr. Coates, left at Pernambuco ill. Her Majesty's steamer Rattler, having on board Lord Howden, had arrived at Bahia, and sailed for Rio de la Plata on the 26th April. The Swift left at Rio de Janeiro the Crescent, Curacoa, and Firebrand. The Griffin steamer, with the River Plate mails, had arrived at Rio on the gth of April. The news by this packet has been anticipated by the recent arrival of her Majesty's brig Frolic. The ex change at Rio was 28/, and at Bahia 28i. The want of tonnage appears to have increased, and 555. to 70s. had been obtained for the Channel. Coffee had ad vanced a little in the higher qualities, and although the stock was very large (45,000 bags), the propor tion of these qualities was very small. 'The present quotations are :—Superior, 2 reis 950 milreis to 3 reis 50 milreis ; good first, 2 reis 800 milreis to 2 reis 850 milreis ; good seconds, 2 reis 400 milreis to 2 reis 500 milreis ; Sugars are quiet—white, 300 reis brown, 2 reis 100 milreis to 2 reis 200 milreis per arroba. Hides had been bought up for the Ameri can market at 170 reis per lb., and the stock was re duced to 7,000. Government stock had remained firm, notwithstanding considerable sales for foreign account (chiefly English), &c., at 82i and 82/ per , cent. ____ Since the departure of the Penguin steam-packet, about 200,0001. has been done ; the transactions of the last week being at the rate of 28} I, 1, and lastly at 28, with more money at 281. than bills. The news from the Emperor was very satisfactory ; he was diverting himself by gratifying his subjects who approach him. He was expected to return in a week. The Empress was going on well. GRIM) REVIEW OP TROOPS IN HYDE•PARK...... To-morrow morning, should weather and other circumstances permit, there will be a grand review of troops in Hyde-park, before his Imperial Highness the Grand Duke of Russia and other distinguished foreigners at present in this country. It is intended to bring as many troops together as the conve nience of the service will afford. An order was issued from the Horse Guards on Friday night, calling for a return of the number of troops that may be available for the occasion. - - [ADVERTISEMENT ]-IferOantile Life.—lt has been fa marked by intelligent foreigners, that oases of baldness prevail greatly in this country, and as a cause, that the unwearied application to com mercial pursuits contributes largely to this result. Be this as it may, nowhere is a protective and restorative preparation more needed ; and probably there is no European people to whom artificial appli anees have been so eminently serviceable. The numerous cases of recovery of the hair after having fallen off, or partial baldness, are truly astonishing.

ALARMING FIRE AT BATH. BATH, Jtretz 12.—At a late hour last night a fire of an extensive and alarming nature, and which at one time caused fears to be entertained for the safety of the mag nificent Abbey Church of this city, broke out upon the premises of Mr. Long, silk-mercer, &c., within a short distance from that venerable edifice. The alarm was first given at a little past twelve o'clock, and was quickly spread throughout the city. The firemen of the different insurance companies, the police and other officers, were promptly on the spot. A crowd consisting of some thousands of persons was speedily collected around the building. The tire spread with amazing rapidity, and seemed to defy the efforts used to subdue it. The flames, which broke forth in all directions, threatened - - the safety of the adjacent premises, and at one time it was thought by many scarcely possible to preserve those of Messrs. Shaw and Beale, the woodwork and paint of which were charred and blistered by the heat. Bad these premises caught, the destruction must have been extensive, as the stock of Messrs. Shaw and Beale is highly valuable. Large flakes of burning embers flew about in all directions, descending on the roofs of the houses, and many an anxious eye was directed to the noble towers of the Abbey, brightly ill um i nate d as t h ey were by the fire, in the fear l est some of them might ignite that t ime-hallowed and holy pile. The exertions of the firemen and neighbours were unceasing, but the conflagration could not be subdued until Mr. Long's - pre mises, with the whole or nearly the whole of his vaiiiabie stock, was destroyed. The extent of the damage has not transpired, but it cannot fail to have been very eon siderahle. THE MURDER AT BIRILENHEAD.—BIREENHEA D , SATURDAY.—The coroner's inquest relating to the murder of Thomas Finnigan, whose body was found in the Morpeth Dock, was concluded yesterday at the Adelphi Hotel. It will be remembered that on the night he was last seen alive he had been to the festival of some club at Tranmere. Se veral days after, his corpse was discovered in the dock, a handkerchief was found stuffed half way down his throat, the side of his bead lacerated, and the trousers pockets turned out as if they had been rifled. A man of the name of James Silk was taken into custody on suspicion of being concerned in the murder. Mr. Vaughan, the surgeon, who examined the body, gave it as his opinion that death had been caused, by suffocation. On the resumption of the proceedings the Coroner informed the jury that the magistrates had directed. the capture of Ann Tobin, a young female, on suspicion ot being implicated with the man Silk in the murder. A great mass of evidence was taken ; and although it left no doubt of the unfortunate young man being murdered, it did not tend to criminate the parties in custody. At a late hour the coroner summed up the evidence, and the ,jury, after an hour's consultation, returned a verdict of " Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown." DEATH FROM MORPHIA.-011 Saturday Mr. Wak. ley, M.P., held an inquest in the Middlesex Hospital As ry ineffectually, stMary A i n la n t e th M e c' d c4 eceas , a e g d e w d a 3 s 3 b . roug Mr h . t e° to r t f h e 'e h h o o s us pi e ta p l il ehl i pre viouscian d quite insens i ble achpum pum p and fom galvanic effectsicbatteo ofmorphia.He appliedas she gradually sunk, and died in an hour after her admit*. sion.

The deceased, who had been an out-patient, was allowed a small quantity of laudanum. ad. ministered in a mixture. Miss Perking, daughter of the proprietor of the Hope, John -street, Tottenham -court-road, deposed that the deceased came into the house early in the morning, and asked for a glass of water, into which she poured half the contents of the phial produced. She then had a glass of gin. After which she suddenly breams drowsy, and ultimately insensible, when she was taken to the hospital. Verdict—" Deceased killed herself by an overdose of morphia. but whether the act was intentionil or otherwise, there WAS no evidence to show." MARRIAGE OF JOHN BRIGHT, ESQ., M.P.— Thursday morning, being the weekly meeting of the Friends at their meeting-house, George-street, in Wakefield, was fixed upon as the day upon which Mr Bright's marriage with Miss Leatham should be solemnised according to the usual form of that body. Half an hour previously to the time appointed (half-past ten), the chapel began to be filled by a numerous and respectable portion of the inhabitants of the town and neighbourhood. Amongst the company pre sent, moat of whom were of the fair sex, we observed a great number of Mr. Bright's political friends. Within a sew minutes of half-past ten the wedding party arrived, and immediately took the seats apportioned to them. The whole company sat for about three quarters of an hour in perfect silence, when Mr. Bright arose, and taking the r ight hand of Miss Leatham, pronounced in a low, but distinct voice, the following words :—" Friends, I take my friend, Margaret Elizabeth Leatham, to be m y wife, and promise by Divine assistance to be unto her a d IscWa)winhebillhue.tostrtdries,lnal suhulobolsudtsiintuvgtoiinhegae.ntts,thAnfMteirss l ov ing and faithful husband until it shall pl ease G od to pert Bright Le fo r athbar Leatham occurred, when one ofwhich the o p u w r s c n b n y o n u a d n m e c a e e t d , h i . t . n h a e other pause of some minute s con gregation offered up a short prayer, the wh o l e standing.

CHARLES SHERIDAN..--SOCiety has lost one of its choicest favourites and ornaments In Mr. Charles Sheridan, who combined all the gifts and qualities that distinguish his remarkable family—wit, beauty, seems ' hments, the graces of manner, and the charm of a=- pits diality the most sincere and genial. We know of no one who was more universally welcome wherever he west, and so liked and admired. His conversation was full of liveliness a nd zest; his wit was light, easy, and managed with good taste and feeling. His talents were excellent, and all that he wanted was the energy for their application, which his health. perhaps, refused him, the threatening symptom of which was a prevailing langour when unexcited. The premature end of one so young and so gifted seems to bear out the thought, turned in so many forms from Sophocles to Shakspere, down to Jeffry, Moore, and Byron, that " Heaven sends its favourites an early doom,"—Examiner.
