3orti•v. THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON AND LORD LYNDHURST. (Prom an unpublished Poem.) * * * * From these* th' unvanquished Hero wins applause, As bold debate's well-temper'd blade he draws— ! where he rides in Truth's triumphant car, Kindling the strife of Reason's nobler war! Matchless in valour, and in wit profound, With civic oak and conquest's laurel crown'd, He nor iu field, nor senate spares the foe, But deals on with a like-unerring blow : Oh ! when 'twas his to guide the helm of State, Like Atlas, he upheld the glorious we i g ht ; He gave the word—the Eagle's pinion cow'r'd, But ne'er the Lion's noble crest was low'r'd ; Resolved as when he hurl'd th' Usurper down, He still defends, as once he sav'd, the Crown ; His mighty hand quell'd Terror's wildest reign, His civic feats our liberties maintain : Shall he, by Heav'n's avenging pow'r design'd, With iron links the tyrant's arm to bind, The proud oppressor's counsels to o'erthrow, And rescue Freedom from her deadliest foe--- Shall he whom grateful Kings were proud to own The great restorer of each prostrate throne — Shall he who " saw and conquer'd" quit the field, To Faction's sons, domestic traitors, yield ? Ah, no !—th' unequal combat soon must cease, And- War's famed hero be the Chief of Peace ! Lo! Lyndhurst! champion of Britannia's cause Her rights asserts, and vindicates her laws ; Th' intrepid leader of a patriot band, He takes 'gainst lev'lling foes his mighty stand; He scorns the silent sneer, the menace loud, The idle echoes of a reckless crowd ; Unmov'd by senseless taunts, unscar'd by yells, What truths he deeply feels he boldly tells ; With grateful action every eye he charms, With feverish eloquence each bosom warms ; With blandness wins, with soft persuasion moves, With wit enlivens, and with sense improves : Oh ! may his bright example still inspire Our British youth with emulative fire May they, like him, pursue their fearless way, j• And high ambition's noblest calls obey ! * * * * * * London, August 29, 1839. * AUGUSTA. * The Peers. t " Ultra pergere"—his Lordship's motto. A LETTER TO THE QUEEN, BY ONE OF THE PEOPLE. (From the Times.) Madam,—The curtain has at length fallen on another act of that political comedy of which the people of your kingdom have been so long the painfully-amused audience, and your Majesty's confidential advisers are retiring to their several abodes with those feelings of exultation so natural to their situation—of escape from the responsibility of office—to shoot partridges and eat venison for the good of their country. With the ex ception of a few minor and unimportant changes among the dramatis personae, in all probability thus tempora rily dropped will rise upon the same actors and the same lugubrious comedy. In that interval, however, the patience, the feelings, and judgment of the audience may have undergone a serious and important change. Those ministers whose incapacity and lack of public confidence they themselves so recently confessed, have no doubt mingled their courtly obeisances, at taking leave, with assurances of satisfactory security in their several departments, and indeed, I have no doubt, have endeavoured to persuade themselves that the recess is to be ole calm and undisturbed period of courtly quie tude. Let not these honied assurances of fancied se curity lull your Majesty into a like torpor. If no evidence of the pressure from without, no con viction of danger, no apprehension of insecurity, can force themselves upon the languid senses of those palled Sybarites who compose the one portion, or if the small still voice of truth finds no ear in the selfish hardihood of the reckless desperadoes who form the other, in de spite of their own admission of incompetency, of your confidential and responsible counsellors—do not, I im plore you, Madam, steel your senses against convic tion ; throw the film from your eyes, and behold a realm " rent with heresies and bristling with rebellion." I am one, Madam, of many thousands of your subjects, who love, honour, and obey you, as the representative of Monarchy, and the lineal tenant of the throne of this country; not as the mistress of a splendid esta blishment, or the magnificent hostess of an hospitable palace. lam too obscure to belong to any individual party, and have therefore, in common with many others, the advantage of being disinterested in my ad vice—uninfluenced by any hope of reward, for I am unambitious—unbiassed by fear of the loss of your fa vour, for I never enjoyed it. My words may be blunt and unpalatable, but they are honest and sincere. Be fore your ministers meet their country again in the se nate, some of your possessions may have been wrested from you. Ireland, drained of troops by the urgent call of still more domestic discord, may, when the fa vourable moment arrives, obey the dictations of that sedition, the movers of which appear to meet with su c h remarkable deference from your ministers. Canada will doubtless not be backward during the present win ter in testifying the value of that policy which those same infatuated beings have pursued. And to con clude—those disturbers of the public peace, whom you have thought of sufficient importance to advert to in your speech to your Lords and Commons, may practi cally rebuke the distorted judgment which permitted the associations they belong to, to spring up and ma ture. LORD LONDONDERRY & HIS LATE DUEL. (From the Durham Advertiser.) The follou'ing address has been forwarded by the clergymen whose names are affixed to it to the Marquis of Londonderry. No true Christian can dissent from the sentiments it expresses, and we feel assured that the noble lord will respond to the eloquent yet simple appeal in a strain which cannot fail to give satisfaction to those who have deemed it their duty to expostulate with the noble lord on the subject referred to : " To the Most Hon. the Marquis of Londonderry, &c. " We, the undersigned clergy of Ripon, Thirsk, and the neighbourhood, as we could address your Lordship with every feeling and expression of respect befitting your exalted rank and station, so would we entreat you to receive this our re presentation with that deference which is due to the God and Saviour whose word we minister, and whose authority we assert. " We cannot forbear thus to state our sincere and deep re gret, that by the part which your Lordship, in compliance with the unchristian usages of the upper classes of society, took in a duel with Mr. H. Grattan, you should have given the unction of your high rank and station to a practice which so grievously violates the law of God and the spirit of Chris tianity, no less than the interests of the community. "We are fully sensible that, even in this Christian land, however 'anamolons it be, if any one shall insist upon the word of clod as paramount to the sanctions of public opinion, or upon the spirit of Christianity as more worthy of our re gard and deference than the spirit of the age, he must expose himself both to obloquy and to treatment which nothing less than the highest degree of Christian courage, and a sincere attachment to the Divine word can enable him alike with meekness and with constancy to bear ; and we readily, though with much sorrow, admit that upon one in your Lordship's high station that obloquy and treatment would bear with its utmost power ; but we would, at the same time, beg your Lordship to consider how, in the same degree, the example would have been influential for good instead of evil, and the benefit great to society at large, and how it would have con tributed to the ascendancy of Christian principles, if your Lordship, instead of bowing to the evil requirements of a worldly code, had simply, but courageously, asserted, from the high vantage ground which your exalted station gives you, those Christian principles which ought to.regulate the con duct of every rank ; and if your Lordship hid availed your self of the late occasion, both as a Christian senator and no bleman, of applying those principles to social and public life, and of substituting them for ti.at pernicious rule by which society, and especially its tr„)per classes, bath hitherto been governed. " We would humbly submit that we are compelled to view this transaction in connexion with that church for whose ex cellencies and privileges your lordship is a strenuous advo cate, and to exhibit it as detrimental to the spread of spiritual influence, without which religion is but an empty name, a thing unsanctioned and unblessed by God, and as calculated to draw down the wrath of God no less upon an acquiescing Church and people than on the actual offenders. "We cannot but express our hope that this our humble representation, which a regard for society, your lordship, and our holy calling forbids us to withhold, may be received with your wonted candour, and we lay before your lordship with the earnest prayer that you may be endued with the grace, wisdom, and understanding which shall enable you to see and to repair your error, and that it may be so blessed by God, that it may be subservient to your Lordship's good, and through your instrumentality to that of society, and to the ascendancy of those holy and blessed principles which your Lordship has been counselled so fearfully to violate, and by which alone as a Christian people we ought to be guided and governed. " We hare the honour to subscribe ourselves, "Your Lordship's most humble and faithful servants, [Here follow the signatures of thirty-one clergymen.] A TALE FOR THE LOVERS OF THE MARVELLOUS. - At tow-street police-office on Thursday morning, an elderly woman, said to be a bad character, was brought before the magistrates, charged by a police-constable with being drunk and creating a disturbance the previous night, in Portugal street, Lincoln's-inn-fields. The constable stated that the prisoner was found by the side of the railing of the burial ground in Portugal-street, expressing great alarm, and loudly asserting that she had seen a man, or some unearthly object having the appearance of a man, digging with a spade in the burial-ground. The policeman looked in the direction pointed out by the prisoner, and there sure enough was somebody or something apparently digging up plants. This object the prisoner declared to be a visitant from the other world. The policeman being of opinion that the ghost, if ghost it was, had no more right than a mortal, under the pro-, visions of tho new police act, to disturb the peace of her ma jesty's subjects, endeavoured to take him into custody ; but his ghostship, having no desire for a night's lodging in the station-house, very coolly placed his spade over his shoulder and stalked solemnly away. The guardian of the night, albeit stricken with fear and apprehension, pursued the noc turnal visitor at a more respectful distance, until at length he heard him strike his spade on the pavement, and immediately afterward s the ghost, marvellous to relate. instantaneously vanished. On returning to the burial-ground, the police man, his cheeks blanched with fear, his hair " like quills on the fretful porcupine," could not discover that the earth had been at all touched, notwithstanding the holes which the ghost had been so plainly seen to dig. Not being at all able to account for this most true yet most strange and unaccount able circumstance, he thought that the best thing that could be done would be to take the woman to whom the ghost first made himself visible into custody, and she was accordingly locked up for the night. After hearing the statement of the policeman and of the prisoner, the magistrate declared he could not make any thing out about the incorporeal being who had made night hideous by his pranks ; but as the pri soner appeared to be merely a spectator of, not a participator in, the strange proceedings, he would discharge her. The prisoner and the policeman then left the office, evidently not , quite recovered from On farm th ey 1 1 , 4 9 recently ex. porienced.—Mosch THE WHIGS AND THE PEERAGE. (From a Correspondent of the Morning Herald.) The recent rapid accession of numbers to the peer age cannot fail to attract the notice of even the most casual observer, and the unceremonious manner in which the hangers-on of the Whig faction have been " pitchforked" into that assembly shows how likely the exercise of any constitutional authority, concerning the upper branch of the legislature, rests in the hands of those so long used to acts of spoliation —not only as regards the legitimate ends and purposes of that body, and the exercise of the prerogatives of the crown, but with regard to the social rights and liberties of the peo ple at large. The following is a list of their doings and undoings, in the way of promotions and creations, for the last nine years, in their efforts to overcome the opposition, and " swamp" the independence of that branch of the legislature : DUKES.

Ely Salisbury RIVER WEAVER. We have much pleasure in being able to state, that the nu merous body of flatmen employed on this extensive and im portant navigation, have obtained the grant of the Sabbath, the locks being ordered to be shut from twelve o'clock on Saturday night till twelve o'clock on Sunday night. This arrangement, so honourable to the trustees, as well as the proprietors of vessels, will be a rich boon to the flatmen and their families ; and that this noble act is duly appreciated, appears evident from the following address, signed by those most deeply interested in the subject : " To the trustees of the Weaver navigation, and the pro . prietors of the vessels trading upon the same. "We, the undersigned, being flatmen and others, employed on the river Weaver, while most of all thankful to Almighty God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, for His great goodness to us, desire also to return humble thanks to the honourable the trustees of the navigation, and to our respected masters, for the grant of the Sabbath, and as the best proof of our gratitude or this great kindness, we pledge ourselves to en deavour, with God's blessing, to spend the Sabbath in a right way, keeping from public-houses, and regularly attending Divine worship, training up our children in the way they should go, setting a good pattern before them, and striving in all things to do our duty in that state of life into which it has pleased God to call us." We understand that of late years, the men employed on this navigation have greatly improved in sobriety, steadiness, and good conduct, pains having been taken to promote their religious instruction by the Clergy on the line, and other benevolent individuals, who have distributed among them the Holy Scriptures and suitable tracts. Through the kindness of their masters, some of these flatmen have for several years enjoyed the privilege of exemption from Sunday labour, which has not been abused, but quite the contrary. We feel as sured that were arrangements made upon all navigations throughout the kingdom, for the grant of the Sabbath to the boatmen, and care taken to promote their spiritual welfare, most beneficial results would follow—God would be honoured, and the poor man profited, while the masters would experience the advantage of the change in the improve ment of their servants as to honesty, industry, and fidelity. When the character of bargemen and boatmen in general is so demoralized as to become proverbial, surely this is a sub ject which claims the most serious attention of the commer cial world.—Chester Courant. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. MANCHESTER, FRIDAY EVENING. Very little business has taken place for some days. We may briefly observe, that Bloomsbury and Charles XII. both hold high positions, although it strikes us the recent offers against the Derby horse are very freely given : 50 to 20 is in vain offered. A fraction beyond our quotation would be taken on Major Yarburgh's horse. Euclid is at 12 to 1, and we do not discern any particular demand for him. The same cannot any longer be said of the Duke of Cleveland's colt, or the Provost. It is quite clear both are in high trim ; and if the layers would only respond to the commissions in the market, we might have some rather heavier work to touch upon. Last night the Duke's horse was backed at 15 to 1 in fifties, and we rather think hundreds would have been pencilled down had the layers deemed the speculation a good one. The Lord Mayor improves ; 20 to 1 has been accepted. On the other hand, Hetman Platoff has receded some three points. Easingwold and one or two others occasionally claim attention to trifling sums. The following are the prices against the horses in any particular request : DONCASTER ST. LEGER. 50 to 20 agst Mr. W. Ridsdale's Bloomsbury 65 to 20 „ Major Yarburgh's Charles XII. (tk) 12 to 1 „ Mr. Thornhill's Euclid 15 to 1 Duke of Cleveland's Commodore (tk) 16 to 1 „ Colonel Cradock's The Provost (tk) 17 to 1 „ Mr. Bowes's Hetman Platoff 20 to 1 „ Lord Westminster's Lord Mayor (tk) • 33 to 1 „ Mr. Clarke's Dragsman (tk) 35 to 1 „ Lord Lichfield's The Corsair (tk) 35 to 1 „ Mr. Ramsay's Easingwold 50 to 1 „ Mr. Newton's Tag-rag (off) 50 to 1 „ Mr. Golden's The Diver (tk) Two beat the field is the general call.

BURNING MINE. (Prom a New York Paper.) One of the coal mines near Pottsville Pa. was accidentally set on fire last winter, an d although Pottsville, have been made to extinguish it, it still burns as fiercely as ever. The editor of the Miners' Journal, who recently paid a visit to it, thus describes the scene : Leaving the cars, we walked up the ravine, to the lower levels of the workings ; here, although not surrounded by a flood of lava, we found the waters issuing from the driftway to be quite warm from the effects of the internal fire, and im pregnated so strongly with alkaline substances as to be ex tremely nauseous to the taste. We are now prepared to ascend the west brow of the Broad Mountain. Beetling above us for some hundred feet, and belching forth smoke and flame, arose the track of the vein which we ascended on the crop. A little puffing and blow ing brought us to the second level, where the disaster com menced during the extreme cold weather of last winter. A hanging grate placed at its mouth to equalise its temperature, communicated fire. to the couplings of the gangway, and was the primary cause of the vast damage which has since accrued. Some hundred feet farther up the hill a large space has ca ved in, and down the fissures between the upper and lower rocks, could be seen a yawning fiery gulph, where Vulcan and his Cyclops might revel in, and salamanders only exist. A. sulphureous exhalation issued from it, which rendered ap proximation not quite so grateful as lavender water, or as cool as ice punch. About the jaws of this vast cave were deposits of sulphur and some alkaline substances in great quantities. Large rents and fissures in the ground showed the extent of the raging internal heat, and many places ap peared ready to fall in and precipitate the incautious spec tator into the chasm. Down the old air shafts the currents of air rushed with a rumbling earthquake sound, to feed with their oxygen the volcano beneath. Now and then a crumb ling mass of slate, or a detached portion of rock would leave the bed where it had been recumbent since the world began, and with resistless force plunge headlong into the smoky crater. The vegetation on the summit and sides of the hill; showed the scathing effects of this unnatural heat ; the tall pine drooped its giant arms, the hemlock bowed its head as if parched by arid sufferings, the young oak and chestnut were clad in a premature " sear and yellow leaf," and here and there the mountain vines seemed to cling more closely to the parent trees, as if like the children of Laocoon, they sought aid from the fiery breath and • • ‘• hissing jaws that sputter'd flame." A dreary spot, is now, that once lovely mountain gap ! The elemental war h as prostrated all its beauty of foliage, the voice of industry is hushed, the rustic cascade seems to leap less merrily than it was wont, and the once buoyant air is heavy and oppressive with the murky vapours that lower over the fair face of nature ! When, or in what manner, the ravages will be stopped is a matter of uncertainty, and equally so, is it, whether hu man ingenuity can restrain them. In the mean time, the loss of time and material falls heavy on Mr. L. C. Dougheaty, the lessee, who has used every possible means within his power, to check the destruction. Attempts have been made to smother the flame, but it always breaks out in some new place with increased fury, and baffles its opponents. RAILWAY BETWEEN CARLISLE AND GLASGOW. -Mr. Locke, the celebrated engineer, is now employed in survey ing the country between Carlisle and Glasgow, for a line of railway, in connection with the projected Penrith' and Car lisle one. The line will pass near to the West-walls, so as to form a central station for the city. The importance of this and the line generally, to the future interests of Carlisle must be obvious to every thinking mind, and every exertion should be made to advance this important undertaking, for the ques tion is not simply, " are we to have a line by Carlisle or not?" but " is Carlisle, henceforth, to rise into a town of great trade or importance, or to sink into insignificance ?" As a report from Mr. Locke of this project will be published in a short time, we must defer further comment till then.—Car lisle Patriot. SAGACITY OF THE DOG.—Amongst the numerous in stances recorded of the exercise of a faculty nearly approach ing reason, in the canine race, may stand the followi ng : —A t Kendal, a few evenings ago, a horse belonging to Henry SI ee, scavenger, had strayed off the New Road into the tan-yard belonging to Joseph Banks, Esq., and had fallen into one of the pits, which was almost dry. It was discovered by a dog belonging to that gentleman (a remarkably fine animal, half mastiff and half bull) which immediately gave the alarm by barking and beating with its feet at the lower window of a neighbouring house, the inmates of which, by means of ropes, immediately rescued the unfortunate horse. It is remark able that the dog selected the only house i n t h e i mme di a t e neighbourhood where aitliStanOe way hi oly to y prtwl3ml,- If4noster Gacette, SELECT EXTRACTS.

THE SOLITARY EXCEPTION.—I never knew but one un equal marriage turn out happily ; and then, perhaps, it owed its success to the short life of the lady, who died before the husband had time to find out his mistake.—. Diary of the Times of George IV. George the Second being informed that a printer was to be punished for having published a spurious King's speech, replied that he hoped the punishment would be of the mild est sort, because he had read • both, and as far as he under stood either of them, he liked the spurious speech better than his own. The celebrated orientalist of Vienna, M. Hammer von Purgstall, is stated, by the Carlsruhe Gazette, to have dis covered the true origin of " The Arabian Nights," by a pas sage in an aneient history of Arabian literature, by Fihris, hitherto unknown, and which was written in the year 377 of the Hegira, 997 of the Christian era. The author of these tales was a Persian queen, named Hamai. ATTORNEYS THE JUDGES' MASTERS.—The twelve judges of the land are nothing, save only as the attorney gives them function and consequence. For, as ships are steered by their rudders, and fi s h propelled by their caudal extremity, so a lawsuit finds its primum mobile in an attorney, who is the tail of the legal hierarchy. The court, if not moved through his agency, is brought at once to a stand-still ;he is, therefore, the court's master.—New Monthly Magazine. FECUNDITY OF THE SQUIRREL.—We found the common grey squirrel very abundant in some places, particularly in the low bottoms along water courses ; in some situations we saw them skipping on almost every tree. On last Christmas Day, at a squirrel hunt in this neighbourhood, about thirty persons killed the astonishing number of twelve hundred, between the rising and the setting of the sun. This may seem useless barbarity ; but it is justified by the considera tion, that all the crops of corn in the country are frequently destroyed by these animals. This extensive extermination is carried on every year, and yet, it is said, that their num bers do not appear to be much diminished.—Townsend's Journey acroas the Rocky Mountains. ANCIENT BULLET.—On Friday wee k, a b u ll e t o f l ead, weighing 8 1 ounces, was picked up near Lochleven Castle. This, we believe, is the only example of the kind which has been found here. Some years ago, about thirty bullets, from to 2 inches in diameter, were found near the same spot, which, on examination, proved to be pebbles covered with lead—implying, probably, a scarcity of the metal at the time they were formed. These last, however, are not to be con founded with the stone bowies, of from seven to eleven inches in diameter, found near the castle, after the partial draining of the loch.—Edinburgh Evening Packet. ENGRAVING ON MARBLE.—A discovery of some impor tance to the statuary has recently been made by Mr. C. Page, of Pimlico, by means of which engraving on marble is greatly improved. In cutting letters in marble, in the ordinary me thod, the edges chip off, and the defects are covered by painting them over ; but Mr. Page obviates this difficulty by covering the surface of the polished marble with a coat of ce ment before the chisel is used. The cement effectually pre vents the marble from chipping, and when the coating is re moved, the letters remain as perfect as if cut in copper. NEW ALLOYS OF METALS.—A curious and valuable dis covery has just been made in the alloy of metals. A manu facturer of Paris has invented a composition much less oxidable than silver, and which will not melt at less than a heat treble that which silver will bear ; the cost of it is less than 4d. an ounce. Another improvement is in steel. An Englishman at Brussels has discovered a mode of casting iron so that it flows from the furnace pure steel, better than the best cast steel in England, and almost equal to that which has undergone the process of beating. The cost of this steel is only a farthing per pound greater than that of cast iron.— Mining Journal. THE QUEEN AND WESTALL THE ARTIST, HER MAJES TY'S PRECEPTOR.—On hi s d ea th-b e d (he had been hunted from his own house by the lowest attorneys, extortioners, and sheriff's men,) he wrote to the princess, (who had not then ascended the throne,) whom he adored, and told her that he had a blind sister dependent on him for support, that he was dying, and had no means with which to provide for her, and solicited her Majesty's protection. The Queen's answer was immediate, containing words of sympathy and sincere regret, and saying that she had settled henceforth on his bereaved sister £lOO a year for life. Let the deed be registered in every English heart.—British and Foreign Review. ELECTIONEERING IN THE BACKWOODS. —When you see me electioneering, I goes fixed for the purpose. I've got a suit of deer-leather clothes, with two big pockets ; so I puts a bottle of whiskey in one, and a twist of tobacco in t'other, and starts out ; then, if I meets a friend, why I pulls out my bottle, and gives him a drink ;—he'll be mighty apt, before he drinks, to throw away his tobacco ;—so when he's done, I pulls my twist out of t'other pocket, and gives him a chew. I never likes to leave a man worse off than when I found him. if I had given him a drink, and he had lost his tobacco, he would not have made much ; but give him tobacco and a drink too, and you are mighty apt to get his vote.—Colonel Crockett. ELECTRIC OR MAGNETIC GIRLS OF SMYRNA.—We and most of the newspapers of France have detailed, upon the authority of the Smyrna journals, the extraordinary pheno mena manifested between two young Greek girls of that city, without its being exactly known with what order of na tural facts they must be ranked. When stationed at little distance from one another—three steps for instance—the girls communicate to the objects placed near them a rapid motion, which displaces them in spite of their weight, which is often considerable, and carries them violently against each other. The two girls arrived at Marseilles a few days ago, and have been received under the roof of a respectable mer chant of their country, who, the day before yesterday, ad mitted us with several distinguished persons of the town, to witness experiments in his drawing-room ; among the spec tators were—Drs. Chauviere and Roussett, M. Barthele mey, Director of the Cabinet of Natural History, and M. Sake, Director of the Jardin des Plantes and Professor of Physics at the Royal College. The two Smyrniots, the eld est of whom is named Zambellon, and the youngest Dhes pinon, were separated by a round walnut tree table, of six feet diameter. We shall not just now detail the results of the experiment, but confine ourselves to affirming that we all of us saw the table repeatedly move of its own motion, as -if it had been suddenly animated on the side of Zambellon towards Dhespinon. This always takes place in the same way, and it is this circumstance which had given rise to the belief of a magnetic fluid rushing from one to the other—a hypothesis which the experiments carefully made at Smyrna by Dr. Galien Clado have, however, not confirmed. In the meanwhile, and until better informed as to these extraordi nary facts, we can but re-assert that we repeatedly saw the very heavy table move by itself; and we shall add, that the manner in which the different articles of furniture were sta tioned, independently of the respectable character of the person at whose house the experiment took place, removes even the shadow of a suspicion of connivance or juggling. We intend to witness other experiments wherein the faculties of the young Greeks will develope themselves in other more curious circumstances ; for the extreme emotion they feel in the presence of strangers has hitherto partially marred cer tain singular manifestations of the unknown fluid which radiates from their persons.—Marseilles Print. A HINT TO THE TEMPERANCE FOLKS.—ATI old Dutch man, who kept an inn at Hohoken, had long resisted the attacks of the temperance societies, until one night he hap pened to get so very drunk; that he actually signed the paper and took the oath. The next morning he was informed what he had unconsciously done, and much to the surprise of his friends, he replied, " Well, if I have signed and have sworn, as you tell me I have, I must keep to my word," and from that hour the old fellow abstained altogether from his favourite schnapps. But the leaving off a habit which had become necessary had the usual result. The old man took to his bed, and at last became seriously ill. A medical man was called in, and, when he was informed of what had oc curred, perceived the necessity of stimulants, and ordered that his patient should take an ounce of French brandy every day. "An ounce of French brandy," said the old Dutch man, looking at the prescription, " Well, dat is goot ; but how much is an ounce? Nobody present could inform. " I know what a quart, a pint, or a gill of brandy is," said the Dutchman, " But I never yet heard a customer call for an ounce. Well, my son, go to the schoolmaster, he is a learned man, and tell him I wish to know how much is one ounce." The message was carried. The schoolmaster, occupied with his pupils, and not liking the interruption, hastily, and with out further enquiries of the messenger, turned over hisßony castle, and arriving at the table of avoirdupoise weight, re plied, "Tell your father that sixteen drachms make an ounce." The boy took back the message correctly, and when the old Dutchman heard it, his countenance brightened up—`,` A goot physician, a clever man—l only have drink twelve drams a day, and he tells me to take sixteen. I have taken one oath when I was drunk, and I keep it ; now dat I am sober I take anoder, which is, I will be very sick for the remainder of my days, and never throw my physic out of the window." Captain Marryat's Diary in America. INDIAN RECRIMINATION.—The Sioux and Winebagoes, had been for some time at war, but had agreed upon a tem porary cessation of hostilities, when a party of about eight warriors of the former tribe came down to the bank of the river, and saw on the island a Winebago encampment con taining eleven persons, all women and children, the men having gone out on a hunting expedition ; the sight of these helpless victims aroused the thirst of the Sioux for blood; and regardless of the truce, they pl unge d i n t o t h e r i ver, swam to the island, and commenced an indiscriminate massacre. One heroic boy only escaped ; he drew his little arrow to the feathers, buried it deep in the breast of one of his enemies, then plunging into the thickets, fled, not for safety, but for revenge. Swimming the river, he ran down its eastern bank to Fort Crawford, where his dreadful tale soon drew to 'his side many of his own tribe, who instantly returned with him towards the island, accompanied by a party of soldiers and several officers (of whom my informant was one), who were ordered to use their best endeavours to overtake and capture the Sioux; but in the meantime, these latter, aware of the pursuit that would immediately ensue, completed hastily their murderous work, and scalping all their victims, retreated with their bloody trophies into the wilds of their own territory. When the Winebagoes arrived at the scene of slaughter, their shouts and yells were deafening. Women and children had joined them in great numbers, and mingled their shrieksand lamentations with the revengeful cries of the men. At length they espied the body of the Sioux whom the brave boy had pierced with his arrow ; he was by this time quite dead, but had contrived to crawl a few hundred paces from the encamp ment, and thus his companions had, in the hurry of their flight, forgotten to carry off his body. The Winebagoes now surrounded it, and prepared to wreak upon it all the indigni ties which fury and revenge could suggest. The minister on whom the office devolved was a handsome young girl of 18, who was the nearest relative present of those who had been massacred : she stept forward with a countenance calm and unmoved, seized the scalping-knife, divided the bones of the breast with a skill and rapidity which proved that the work was neither new nor unpleasant to her; and tearing out the heart, cut it into small slices, which she presented warm and reeking to the savage men around her, who ate them in gloomy and revengeful silence !—Murray's North America. One of the most odd of all the out-of-the way modes of gaining a living in our metropolis, is that practised by gen tlemen who haunt the wine-vaults at the docks. They are understood to inherit from nature an unusually delicate pa late, which, with great experience in the characters of various wines, is supposed to qualify them to an unusual degree for making selections of those liquors for intending purchasers. Their living is literally from hand to mouth. They are fee'd by both dealers and private gentlemen to accompany them into the vaults, and give their judgment respecting the wines submitted to them. If they were to swallow any considerable part of what they taste, they would soon lose the power of judging, or doing any thing else. They are scrupulous to discharge from their mouths whatever they take as a tasting ; and yet, it is said, this cannot be done so effectually, but that, in the course of time, their health is affected by their course of life, and they break down at a comparatively early age. The sensations which they experience in the line of their duties, are of a very exquisite nature, and these they describe in a language quite their own—full of fine analogies. One engaged as a witness at a trial, where a cargo of wine was the matter in dispute, avowed his certainty that the wine which was sent was different from the sample, as was contended by the plaintiff. " And how do you know that ?" inquired the opposite counsel. " Oh, it is quite a different wine to my taste. There was a fine farewell flavour about the sample, which the wine sent really wants." A book on his trade by one of these gentlemen would be a pm umatological curiosity. Why, in this age of practical literatin e, does not some one bring out a little gilt-edged tome, entitted " A Gentleman's Adventures is wargh Qf a Pip@ @f Wll4O ree-PcnOeree DELIRIUM TREMENS.—One of the most frightful mala dies consequent upon the abuse of vinous or spiritous drinks, is delirium tremens, which bears with it a melancholy train of symptoms which are closely allied to some of the most aggravated forms of disease which the sad catalogue of human afflictions presents us with. Some time previous to the de velopement of this disorder, there are observed weakness, languor, emaciation ; there is no appetite for breakfast or for dinner ; there is a peculiar slowness of the pulse, cold ness of the hands and feet, a cold moisture over the whole surface of the body, cramp in the muscles of the extremities, giddiness, nausea, vomiting. To these signs succeed a ner vous tremor of the hands, and likewise of the tongue ; the spirits become dejected, a melancholy feeling pervades the mind; the sleep is short and interrupted: this may consti tute the first stage; after which a second comes on, attended with the highest degree of nervous irritation, ending in mental alienation. Objects of the most frightful nature are present to the imagination ; the eye acquires a striking wild ness ; the person cannot lie down ; he fancies he see faces of extreme hideousness before him, beings enter into a con spiracy against him : sleep is altogether banished. This dis order sometimes burst forth after a debauch with tremen dous violence, and in an unmanageable form ; it is some times characterized, by the exhibition of a furious delirium ; the eyes become ferrety, the perspiration enormous, and the want of sleep is almost painful to the attendant. Oftentimes the paroxysm is of a melancholy kind : the appearance of the sufferer is very striking from his total helplessness ; his incoherence of ideas, and his refusal to drink, which pro duces almost as striking an effect of hydrophobia, excite the utmost alarm. Death is some ti mes sudden. Dr, Pearson witnessed a distressing incident in a patient who, fora consi derable time before his death, imagined he saw the devil at the ceiling above his bed; and as the disease increased, he fancied the evil spirit approached him with a knife to cut his throat, and actually expired making violent efibrts to avoid the fatal instrument.—Dr. Signiond on Tea. TUNNEL THROUGH THE ALPS.—M. Volt Zaninota, the able engineer of Como, who, in conjuction with M. Brus chetti, of Milan, obtained, in 1837, from the Austrian go vernment, a privilege of fifty years, for the construction of a railroad between Milan and Como, is now negociating with. the Swiss cantons of the Grisons and St.. Gall an enterprise which would far exceed in magnitude the Thames Tfinnel,- , --- viz. the piercing through the Grisons' Alps. Impressed with the commercial importance of the passage of the Spulgen, and at the same time with the various obstacles Which it pre sents, he thinks it possible to pierce through that mountain, and establish in the passage thus effected a railroad, the northern portion of which would end either at Wallenstadt, or even at Schmerikon, on the lake of Zurich ; and the southern would be connected with the Como and Milan rail road. M. Volta does not dissemble the expense and difecul ties of such an undertaken, but insists on the immense ad vantages that would accrue from a horizontal road, accessible at all times, and not nearly so long and fatiguing as the pre sent one. As galleries above half a league long have already been bored, he deems that there is no reason why longer ones still should not be pierced. An examination has proved that the granite rocks to be gone through can be easily blown up, and that by a new process the operation may be rendered easier still. M. Volta, reckoning that thirty years will be required to execute the works, demands an exclusive privi lege of a hundred years, with liberty to establish companies in order to procure funds, or to transfer his privilege to other parties. In return he engages to execute 8,000 metres in the course of five years, and the whole line, crossing the ter ritory of the Grisons and Saint Gall, in thirty years. More over M. Volta engages to pay 10,000 francs into the cantonal coffers of the poor for every 'year of unjustified delay in the construction of the first kilometre, or proportionately in the completion of the whole road over the Swiss territory, or else to resign entirely his privilege. A Foun YEARS' FAST.—The subject of the narrative is a young woman, of the parish of Largs, at present in her 19th year, blooming with health and beauty. When about nine years of age, she fell into bad health, the most prominent symptom of which was a headache of the most painful nature, very inveterate, and difficult to relieve ; along with the head ache, their were other symptoms of disordered constitution —a rapid pulse and deficient appetite, &c. But to detail all the varying symptomsof her lengthened illness is not the ob ject of this letter—that description falls more properly under the province of the physician. It is enough to mention that at one time she was supposed to be the threatened with water in the head—at another the liver and bowels were supposed to be the seat of her disease. After being seen by many medical men, and undergoing various modes of treatment for two or three years without any amelioration of her disease, it was candidly admitted by the usual medical attendant, that the only hope of a cure rested in the change that might be produced on the subject of the case into womanhood. At this time she wasfrom 11 to 12 years of age, her appetite had completely failed, and her whole sustenance began to be de rived from a glass of whiskey in a teacupful of hot water, sweetened with two teaspoonfuls of sugar. The quantity was taken three times daily, with not so much as a mouthful of so lid food or milk, everything when swallowed being immedi ately ejected from the stomach, with the exception of the above mixture of whiskey, wa! er, and sugar. There might at long intervals, be a slight deviation from the above, when a single mouthful of solid food occasionally rested on the stomach; but without exaggeration, I must say, that for four years her whole sustenance was derived from the above mixture of whiskey water and sugar ; and although her form was slender, yet she grew in stature, was never confined to bed, nor within doors, except for a few weeks, when the spine becoming slightly affected, she was obliged to take a slightly recumbent position, to prevent curvature of the spinal column. Suffice to say, that in process of time, nature did what neither, man nor medicine could accomplish. The young woman is now well, hale, and hearty. The being accustomed so long to the daily use of ardent spirits, has left no baneful habit— she is as abstemious as the most moral of her set.' Although ' a moderate eater nothing comes wrong to her in the shape of solid or liquid nourishment. If any - feel sceptical of the truth of the above statements, they can he testified by the family of the young woman, who are respectableby the medical gentleman who attended her—as well as by many in dividuals in the neighbourhood, who aware of the above facts, were induced to visit the young woman from motives of curi osity.—Ayr Observer. Fleetwood is now made a port, with Preston, Poulton, and Lytham for its creeks. It is now separated from Lancaster. Several of the Prussian officers who have been employed in the army of the Sultan as disciplinarians and teachers of tactics have met their death during the battle of Nezib from the Turkish troops, who are stated to have shot them out of a feeling of revenge for the severity of the discipline intro ducced by them. THE BRITISH ASSOCIATION.—We received last night another long report of the proceedings of the British Asso ciation. After very calm and steady consideration, we are determined not to publish any more of these reports except as advertisements. It is impossible that any reporte r no t acquainted with all the subjects can give an accurate narra tive of the lectures and discussions, and an inaccurate one is worse than useless ; it puzzles and misleads. Besides, we have, we confess, a great contempt for this mode of dispen sing knowledge, where beef and botany, champagne and chemistry, geology and goose-liver pies, are discussed toge ther to the great confusion of the digestive faculties both of the intellect and the stomach. Every thing in its place. We like dancing, but should be sorry to see a grave elder of the Society of Friends.figuring away in flesh-coloured inex pressibles, in order to exemplify the simplicity of nature. We admire astronomical science, but do not wish to see one of its professors gorging himself, almost to bursting, with truffle-stuffed turkeys, in illustration of the prodigal profu sion of the Milky Way. A Quaker may dance, but let it be in private ; a philosopher may gormandize, but let it be in his own dining-room. Neither religion nor science will be advanced by the public exhibition of these undignified, though perhaps natural, propensities. But, joking apart, we have felt from the beginning that there is a great deal of folly and humbug in the concoction and objects of this pretended sci entific association ; and latterly, we have had reason to think that there is something worse—we mean that cross-jobbing has tainted the administration of the society. We shall, perhaps, have occasion to say a few words on this subject. Meantime, we shall conclude by quoting the words of a friend, that " the systematic concealment of important in formation from those who are called upon to decide, and the support which men of high character and station have, by cajolery, been duped into gi v i n g to contemptible me asures ,', have disgraced the society, and paralyzed all its powers of usefulness. We believe that Sir John Herschell, Mr. Bab, huge, and Mr. Sedgwick, among others, have withdrawn their motet et) from the Aseociationg—Twf, CANAL LOCKS.—The canal locks did not detain us long— they never lose time in America. When the boat entered the lock, and the gate was closed upon, her, the _water was let off with a rapidity which considerably affected her level, and her bow pointed downwards. I timed a lock with a fall of fifteen feet—from the time the gate was closed behind us until the lower one was opened for our egress was exactly one minute and a quarter.—Marryat's .Diary.—[On the ca nals here, with only eight feet of fall per lock, the time taken to pass a boat is from three to four minutes.] FALLING STARS.—During the night of Friday and Satur day last, the 9th and 10th of August, the heavens were be strewed with little falling stars of extraordinary brightness. Mr. Forster counted above 600 of "them. It is not a little singular, that the peasants of Franconia and Saxony have be lieved for ages past, that St. Lawrence weeps tears of fire, which fall from the sky every year on his fete (the 10th of August.) This ancient popular German tradition, on obser vation, has been found within these few years to be a fact, which engages the attention of astronomers. The inhabitants of Brussels can bear witness, that, in the night of the 10th this year, Saint Lawrence shed abundance of tears.—Brussels Paper. WINE.—Good wine is a cordial, a good cordial, a fine sto machic, and, taken at its proper season, invigorates mind and body, and gives life an additional charm. There can be found no substitute for the fermented liquors that can ena ble man to sustain the mental and bodily labour which the artificial habits of society so constantly demand. Tempe rance and moderation are virtues essential to our happiness, but a total abstinence from the enjoyments which the boun teous hand of nature has provided is as unwise as it is un grateful. If, on the one hand, disease and sorrow attend the abuses of alcoholic liquors, innocent gaiety, additional strength and power of mind, and an increased capability of encoun tering the ever-varying agitation of life, are amongst the many good results which sprin g f rom a well-regulated diet, in which the alcoholic preparations bear their just proportion and adaptation.—Dr. Siymond. PLOUGHMEN (AS LATELY TO BE SEEN) IN IRELAND. — The most ludicrous of all human objects is an Irishman ploughing. A gigantic figure —a seven-foot machine for turning potatoes into human nature, wrapped up in an im mense great coat, and urging on two starved ponies, with dreadful imprecations and uplifted shillela. The Irish crow discerns a coming perquisite, and is not inattentive to the' proceedings of the steeds. The furrow, which is to be the depository of the future crop, is not unlike, either in depth or regularity, to those domestic furrows which the nails of the meek and much-injured wife plough, in some family quarrel, upon the cheeks of the deserviily-punished hus band. The weeds seem to fall contentedly, knowing that they have fulfilled their destiny, and left behind them, for the resurrection of the ensuing spring, an abundant and 'healthy progeny. The whole is a scene of idleness, laziness, and poverty, of which it is impossible, in this active and enter prising country, to form the most distant conception ; but strongly indicative of habits, whether secondary or original, which will long present a powerful impediment to the im provement of Ireland.—Rev. Sydney Smith. ANCIENT HISTORY OF THE ROSE.—Among both the Greeks and Romans, some attention appears to have been paid to the cultivation of flowers, as offerings or as orna ments ; as offerings in the temples of their deities, and as ornaments on occasion of public or private festivity. The Romans, however, appear to have esteemed flowers more than the Grecians, and the ori g in of this greater reg ar d f or them may not improbably b e found in the imitation of that luxury and splendour which the Romans had witnessed in eastern countries. The rose is mentioned by Homer and Anacreon ; but the former, in the hymn to Ceres ; by the latter, in many of his odes ; through which we learn that it was a flower remarkable for the beauty of its petals; that it grew amidst thorns ; that it had a divine I,•agrance •, was of the colour of the human complexion ; that it was the most beautiful of all flowers, " the queen of flowers," the " flower of love." According to the Calendar of Natural Occur rences in Greece , the rose blossomed in Ma rc h ; th e R osa Grseca, or Lychnis coronaria, in May. In the Roman Ca lender we find early roses were in blossom in April, and that in May they were generally in flower. In Egypt, according to Theophrastus, the rose blossomed two months before it appeared in Italy, and continued in flower for almost as long a time in the former country, after it had ceased blow ing in Italy. In the latter country it succeeded the blossom ing of the violet and the lily.—Literary World. &bipptrig EntriTigrarr. FRIDAY, AUGUST 30.—Wind S.W. Falr.

Since this day se'nnight the arrivals of British Grain, Flour and Oatmeal to this port have been very limited; the imports of foreign produce are comprised in about 5400 qrs. of Wheat, 1000 qrs of Barley, Bso qrs. of Beans, 1050 qrs. of Rye, and 160 brls. of Flour. The business in Wheat, during the same period, has consisted chiefly of the sales to our local millers and dealers; and these having purchased only for their immediate wants, such holders as have been desirous to sell have had to submit to a reduction in prioo of 3d Ell id per 7olbs. Flour must also be noted is per sack cheaper. Oats have become uncommonly scarce, and, with a limited demand, middling qualities have brought 4s, whilst choice mewling are worth 4s 3d per 451bs. A small parcel of Irish new (rather discoloured) appeared on Tuesday, for which 4s 3d per 451 b. was obtained. Oatmeal has moved siowly at 3Ss to 36s 6d per 2401b5.; the stocks of this article are also in unusually small com pass.
