TIMES.—The strongest feelings of sympathy and attachment to the Queen have been excited in the city by this diabolical attempt on her life, and it was the sole topic of conversation, almost to the exclusion of bu,siness, during the day. No event of the kind could Possibly be more unforeseen or unexpected, as her sex, her youth, and freedom from all connexion with political affairs, except through her Ministers, rendered the idea of a personal enemy quite out of the question. Her visit to the city in the early part of her reign, and her affable conduct to the citizens, had disposed them to view her and to speak of her with a degree of regard which very few Sovereigns have possessed. As the act appears to be an isolated one, so far as may be gathered from t h e events which have transpired, it has not :a any way affected public credit. " London, June 8,1840." The Court of Directors do also give notice that the said Court is FURTHER MADE SPECIAL for the purpose of laying before the Proprietors, agreeably to the Bye Law, cap. 10, see. 1., a Bill lately introduced into the House of Commons entitled " The Colonial Passengers Bill."

This Company is formed for Paving the Metropolis, and twenty miles round. Specimens of the principle have been laid down at Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, and Oxford-street, 'where 2,000 yards more are commenced. The principle is a mew_ section of the cube. The Blocks are cut across the grain, at an angle of 63 degrees 26 minutes 5 seconds and 8-10ths of a leavid, which causes the diagon.ljoining of the obtuse angles of the ,two parallelopipedes to fall in a perpendicular straight line, which, laid down obliquely, gives to a surface, perpetually even, all the strength of an arch. The streets of London alone comprise 6,000,000 square yards, and are kept in repair at an annual expense of 300,0001. The profits of the Company will be derived from the original /vin; down of the Pavement, each million of square yards 3teking 150,0001. profit—and also from keeping their pave anent in repair, which on a moderae calculation will amount to 60,0004 per annum—at the same time effecting a saving of -half of the Paving-rates to the several parishes. The pre adnf- orders received by the Company amount to 30,000/. Ne gotiations are pending for other works to a great extent. Meettinge have been held at Liverpool and Manchester, at Which, ,after the principles of the Wood Pavement were ex plained,' _Restitutions were unanimously passed, approving of .the scientific principle adopted by the Metropolitan Patent Wood Pavement Company, and strongly recommending its ge neral use. Application has ,Nince been made to the Inventor for permis ton to lay down a qi;arter of a mile in length at Manchester, and the work will comoence forthwith. • Application far Shares !c be addressed to the Secretary, 20, 'John-street, Adelphi, where prospectuses may be obtained.

The articles to which these patents apply consist of bolts, rivets, railway pins, and others too numerous to particularize, of which the consumption is unlimited, and which are indis pensable in the construction of railways, steam boilers, and gasometers, ship building, architectural, agricultural, and a variety of other very useful purposes. The patent railway pins have for some time past been used on the railroads throughout England, and their superiority is established, not merely by the certificates of some of the first engineers, but practically by the repeated orders of contractors and American agents (some executed and others in course of execution), the whole of which may be seen on applicati on to the Secretary, whO will show specimens of the articles pro duced, and afford any further information relative to the un dertaking generally.

He had b een ) - This high-mi n d e d and most amiable gent l eman paid the debt to nature for scme time suffering from an internal complaint, but he was only confined to his house about a month. Simon M'Gillivray was the youngest of three brothers of a respectable Highland family, who followed the for time9 of their uncle, the late Simon M‘Tavish in the far-famed North West Company of Montreal, established shortly after the Americae Revolution. Before that time, a number of rival traders, partly English, pat tl) French, carried on the fue trade at separate stations to the westward of .1_ 4 0.4e Huron. The competition and con tests arising from conflicting interests, led to their union and ;he formation of the North West Company, which, forming its establishments, at the Grand Portage on the western shore of Lake Superior, pushed its discoveries under Sir Alexander M'Kenzie to the Frozen and Pacific (Wens, and by degrees formed pos. s thougheut the immense regions between Canada and Vancouver's Souno. In these expeditions, the elder brothers of Mr. M'Gillivray bore a conspicuous share, and every person acquainted with Canada will recollect their amia ble charac!ers, and the distinguished hospitality with which all strangers were received at their residence in Montreal. Differences subsequently took place between Sir A. M'Kenzie and the North West Company, which led to the formation of a rival association in Canada, followed by the contests baween both, and the Hudson Bay Company, and Lord ';elkirk, familiar to all our readers, that finally terminated in an union between all the parties under the Act of 1820, and the transference of the whole trade to the Hudson Bay Campany, by whom it is now carried on. Mr. William M'Gillivray died in the subsequent year, leaving the settlement of most compli cated and conflicting interests and accounts, on the winding up of the affairs of the North West Company, to his bro ther i Simon. The fortunes of both were involved and sa crificed in the settlement, which was nevertheless effected in a manner reflecting the highest credit on their honour and integrity. After this Mr. M'Gillivray went to Mexico as Commis sioner to manage the affairs of the United Mexican Mining Company. The arduous duties of this situation he dis charged during five years with great ability, and to the utmost satisfaction of the Company whose interests were confided to him. His decision of character and persever ance peculiarly fitted him to struggle with difficulties. The toil and fatigue lie encountered during those five years must have injured his constitution. He returned to Eng land towards the latter end of 1835, when a friendship of long standing with Mr. Easthope led him to take a share in the Morning Chronicle. Subsequently a nearer con nection took place between them. Few men so extensively engaged in important business have passed through life with a higher reputation for un stilled integrity and rigid adherence to principles, than Mr. M'Gillivray, No man ever hesitated to place the most implicit reliance on his honour. His word was sacred. His intentions were always pure, and his con duct open and straightforward. We do not believe that there exists, the individual who would say that Simon M'Gillivray, in any one of the numerous transactions in which he was embarked, did him an intentional wrong. But if be was it,fl.xibly just, he wa-, at the same time, kind and generous almost to a fault. His confidence once bestowed was not lightly withdrawn, and he was a firm and unshaken friend in the hour of trial. His natural abilities were strong, and he had carefully cultivated them. He had applied himself successfully to several branches of science and his taste in the fine arts was generally admitted. He was a close reasoner, and whatever he wrote was remarkable for a lucid arrange . - ment. Having arrived carefully and methoeically at his conclusions, he was with difficulty driven from the opi nions he had once embraced. He never pronounced an opinion till he had carefully examined the subject. In the private relations of life he was exemplary—an affectionate husband and parent, and a kind brother. He has left a widow and an infant daughter. It would have been affectation to have allowed the con nection of Simon M'Gillivray with this journal, or his re lationship to its principal proprietor, to have re=trained us from paying a brief tribute to the memory of a gentleman so long and extensively known and esteemed both in Eng land and America. But we have sparingly used the pri vilege of friendship in this brief sketch of his life and cha racter. [We cheerfully give insertion to the above well deserved cutogium. Simon AV Gillivray was a man of great and varied abilities, but his talents were only second to his cha racter for honour, integrity, and unbounded amiability, Ile was a gentleman of rare excellence, whose loss will be long and deeply regretted.—En. Sun.] SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS. I i FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF THIS DAY. (From the Illorr,ing Chronicle.) In the event that one shudders to imagine, the lamen tation of the people might, indeed, have been— " Then you, and I, and all of us fell down, While bloody treason flourished over us." And what would have' followed, who. can realise ? We mean not merely the private anguish of a princely heart, nor the blighted hope of a Royal succession, nor the sor rows of El generofis netional sympathy, but the dark cloud that would forthwith have lowered over all the prospects of the people. We should have been at this moment the vassals of a now foreign potentate. We should have been breathin g in the dominions of King E rnest o f Hanover I Orangeism would have been rampant ! over Great Britain and Ireland there would have been a letting loose of the bitterest, foulest, and darkest fiends. The oppressor would soon have been abroad, and close on his track the insurgent whom the oppressor makes and in furiates. It would have been as if the wheels of time were turned back to a period of dismay, disorder, and fierce I collision. Thank heaven I every day, for weeks to come, will be a day of national thanksgiving. The public heart waits not for formularies. The joint address of the Houses of Lords and Commons has the merit of fitly and simply expressing the common feeling. What voice will not say I Amen to its " earnest prayer to Almighty God to preserve to us the protection of her just and mild government, and a life so justly dear to us." (From the Morning Herald.) In whatever " madness" or "method" this strange and mysterious affair may have originated, there is one grati fying circumstance connected with it. The universal ex pression of sympathy which the apprehended danger to the Queen's life has called forth, evinces the wide-spread and deep.rcoted loyalty of the people—that feeling of affection for the Sovereign, and reverence for the Throne, which the seditious doctrines, so extensively disseminated for some years past, with the encouragement or connivance of her Majesty's Ministers, have not yet extir pated. There are persons who say that Oxford's crime was the result of a Chartist plot, for the purpose of exciting terror throughout the country, and thereby producing a state of general excitement and confusion favourable to ulterior Chartist enterprises. The circum stance of the perpetrator of the act having come from Birmingham, has been relied upon in support of this ru mour—perhaps it gave rise to it. Birmingham is said to be the focus of Chartism and sedition. If it be so, who made it so? Did not the Whigs, by their infamous cajo lery of the working classes during the Reform Bill mania, sow the seeds of disaffection, riot, and sedition in the minds of the " masses" at Birmingham, Bristol, Notting ham, and other populous places, which seeds we have seen sp: ing into such a luxuriant crop of evil to society ? ( From the Morning Advertiser.) We feel assured, that the instigators, if instigators there be, of the traitorous attack on her Majesty's life, are alto gether insignificant in point of number, and that her providential eseapo will be a matter of rejoicing to men of every shade of political opinion throughout the coun.ry ; including even those who in moments of excitement have given utterance to language of which they now ?s l e e t bitterly repent. When the first shock of surprise, end ex citement has passed away, the feeling will naturally ariso, what would have been the situation of England at the present moment if the traitor's sire had not been providen tially frustrated. It is a question which we can hardly put to ourselves without shuddering. When we consider, on the one hand, the great interesta at stake, the divided state of parties, the critical condition of Ireland, goaded by Tory hostility into the verge of insurrectiou—the great questions of Canada and China still unsettled, and the gro w i ng exasperation of the labouring and productive classes against the Corn-laws, and other oppressive taxes upon food and industry-..and, on the other, the hands into which the sovereign power of the British realm would, in the natural order of succession, have devolvosl—sve are filled with dismay at the prospect which would have awaited us had the attempt of the assassin been unfortu nately successful. (From the Morning Post.) We observed yesterday that the House of Commons in committee on the Sale of Beer Bill debated almost every clause, and went to a division upon most of them. We are not surprised at the interest taken in the new arrangements and restrictions which are sought to be established with respect to the bser-shops in the country ; for, while the " philosophers.' and free traders think it a violation of " principle" to impose any restraint or regulation upon the sale of anything, they who live in the country, and feel in terested in its peace and welfare, know by experience what nests of mischief these houses for the sale of beer are foiled to be. We trust, therefore, that Mr. Peking ton's Bill will became law, and that since we cannot now get rid of the mischiefs of beer. shops altogether, they may at least ho placed under such regulations as will tend to mitigate the evils which have been found to arise from their existence. (From the Times.) It is impossible to reprobate with too much severity the spirit in which Ministers carry on their warf a re aga i ns t th e recognized laws of Parliamentary proceeding, and their systemhtic obstruction of every measure which has the fair play of the C o nstitution, disregarding faction, f or it s en d. Lord Stanley's 13111 for amending the Registration Law of Ireland was sure to meet from Mr. Daniel O'Connell and his Downing-street dependents, at the very out set, a fierce and deadly opposition. Fictitious voters, with elective franchises purloined through the worst mano3uvres of fraud and perjury, under the patronage of a priesthood whose vocation is exclusively factious, form the constituency of that Irish section of the House of Commons which obeys on all occasions the O'Connell mandate, and seeks the dismemberment of the British mo narchy by means of violence or treason.

The Work which is now presented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of diseases and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ordinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure tu follow from indulgence, in certain habits, which delicaenforbids, us to name, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whether we consider such person to hold the relation of a PARENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its real eauso, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in nine tenths of the cases of young pe r sons of both sexes , w h o perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulg ence i n certain destructive habits, practised by youth much more fre quently than is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temp orar il y , at least the-relation and iesponsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often concealed practices so often introd uce d into schools, whereby the health and ultimately th e li ves of his pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked in proper time. lie will here find a clue to guide hi m t h rough the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a s t andard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real cau se o f such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose nacre echaracter, is at on ce concentrated the twofold relation cf parro t and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to ‘ihich youth is addi c t e d ; lie will Fdsa enabled to point out th e disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if not relinquished. The book will also be found to contain much valuable infor mation peculiarly interesting to those members of society from having indulged to excess in yontli, find themselve s un able to discharge those duties and functions which devolve on them in the Ordinary course of life.

POST.—There was not much business doing at the Stock Exchange today. Some sales of Reduced Three per Cent. Stock were effected in the course of the morning, but for what particular purpose did not tran spire, It was rather supposed that reinvestments iu City bonds and other securities offering a higher rate of interest were again the object of the parties selling. It is possible, however, that the unfortunate affair of yesterday may have produced some timidity on the part of the dealers. For the present a decline of only about a quarter per cent, has occurred in the English market, Consols being, for the Account, 91i, (sellers) in the early part of the day, but from which they eventually improved to 91-f: Exchequer I3ills remain steady at 249. to 265. prem.

THINfELE-RIGGING- MELANCHOLY AF rikiit.--We have often been called to record the evil conse quences arising from the folly of individuals in being induced to gamble with thimble-riggers, but we do not remember to have heard of a case the end of which waa so tragical as that vre are about to mention. A young man nomed Manners, in th ser . vice of Mr. Sawers, Bell's Mills, having received ho ' Half-year ' s fee at the term, fell in with a gang of thi na h jie-riggers, who lured him to play with them, and, in a shor. time, stripped him ;f all his money, He returned horn • in a melancholy state, and remained in that condition ts - r some days, till he disap peared from the place, and w':s trot again heard of til: the fore noon of Sabbath last, v' -s his body was found in the cana l. He was a sober, s':Laily young ma n , much respected by his master and fell o w -workmen.—Edinburgh paper. lo• 4.'11 ORTH MIDLAND HAILwAY.---The works connected with this line of Railway, so far as regards both the line itself and the Leeds terminus, are now in a very forward state, the permanent line being laid down the whole length. On Wednesday, the 10th instant, the first engine that ever passed on the li ne was p l ace d upon i t b y two of the Directors of the Company. On the morning of that day those two gen tlemen, accompanied by Messrs. Land, Kitson, and Co., the manufacturers of the engine, proceeded from Leeds to Oaken shaw, near Wakefield, a distance of twelve miles and a half. They left Leeds at a quarter before eleven, and arrived at the Oaltenshaw station at twenty-two minutes past eleven, having traversed the line in thirty-seven minutes. They returned in a period of thirty-four minutes, having found the works throughout well constructed. This is the only portion of the hue between Leeds and Sheffield on which an engine had not been tried, the remaining portion having been traversed some time ago. The railway is to be opened on the 30th of June instant, when the inhabitants of Leeds will have an opportu nity of travelling by railway to London the whole of the way. The average time of performing the journey used to be from twenty-four to thirty hours; it will now be accomplished in ten hours. THE OPENING OF THE ATMOSPHERIC RanwAy„—The opening of a portion of Clegg's Atmospheric Railroad, which r .ns from the Great Western Railway to the Ux.. bridge Road, and which has been looked forward to withlgreat interest, took place yesterday, and in every spect succeeded. A very large proportion of the Members of both Houses of Par. liament were present, and Wormholt Scrubbs presented all the animated appearance) of a day at Epsom. The absence of the Ministry was alone occasioned by the meeting of the Privy Council, to investigate the attempt to assassinate the Que en and Prince Aibert. Some of the peculiar features of this dis covery are the absence of all noise and smoke, the ease and rapidity of motion, and the facility of ascending greater incli nations than locomotives are enabled . to d o , th e i mpossibility of collision, and the great economy in all its arrangements. 'this Railway is capable of carrying 10,800 passengers a-day in trains started every five minutes, calculating the day at l 2 hours. As a perfectly new feature in scienc e , it must be viewed as a most important and interesting discovery. BRAVE CONDUCT OF A LAD-HIS OWN LIFE SacarricEn..___Yesterday an inquest was held before Mr. W. Carter, the Coroner for Surre at the Surrey Canal house, Camber we ll , on the body of James Maddix, aged 18, who, having sa ve d t h e life of one boy was drowned whilst bravely attempti ng the rescue of another., On Tuesday after noon, about half -past three, an alarm was given that two boys were drowning in the Surrey Canal, near the Peckham bridge.

If there is any truth in the old suing, that " money mak t the mare to go," the new lessee of this establishment has a right to anticipate a brilliant issue to his speculation—the telly fear we have is that he may test the proverb too liberally. One thing is certain, he has made a good beginning, by adding 300 sovs. to the Hippodrome Handicap, and bringing together a better field of horses than we have ever seen in competition for a race within ten or a dozen miles of the metropolis. This alone will " tell ;" but, in addition to this, liberal sum s wer e provided for other prizes, and, to raise the character of the.

This was 'also the ease on the road after the termination of the races.

Columella, over powering the lad, was in front for about a quarter of a mile, after which Dreadnought, who had been in their wake, took up the running at a middling pace, followed by Maroon, and the Currier, Fitzroy lying in the rear. Without any material change they went on for nearly a mile and a half, when Maroon took the lead from Dreadnought, arn: at an amended pace kept it to the distance ; here Fitzroy ran by him, and although pressed for a moment by the Curries', was never after headed, and v:ori by a length.

Solomone' reputation as an optician and scientific man. His voice conductors, recently invented, are the most powerful instruments hitherto discovered for defective hearing. Deaf persons are enabled, from their minute construction (being only i of an inch in diameter), to wear them entirely unseen ; they are inserted and removed with the greatest facie. lily.

OLI V ER C ROM WEL L.—Perhaps in the whole range of modern annals there is no character or career more nobly adapted to the purposes of historical fiction than arc those of the great and self-raised Protector —the Napoleon of the Commonwealth ; and 'mottling but the extraordinary difficulties surrounding the task can have hitherto kept it unfulfilled. The wonderful subtlety of Cromwell's character ( which has kept it a mystery to this day), and the unrivalled eclat of his career (not surpassed by that of Napoleon himself), offer scope for one of the most striking works of its class flat our literature can boast; and report says that the highest expectations which the subject can raise will not be disappointed in the forteorning Romance, entitled "Oliver Cromwell," which the author, with a rare modesty, chooses to usher into the w orld under the edi torship of Mr. Horace Smith, the distinguished author of " Bra.mbletye House," &c. 76, KING W I LLIAM-STREET, BANK OP Etu'LANn, Alen 39, A LISEMARLE-STREET, PICCADILLY.—.
