/Dap. THE SPIRIT OF BEAUTY. " Go forth to the woods, and tread the green deli, For the Spirit of Beauty is there ; You will see her fair form in the snow-drop ' s , white bell, You will hear her sweet voice in the air." " I h...yebeen to the woods, I have trod the green dell, And the Spirit of Beauty was there ; I saw her fair form in the snow-drop's white bell, I heard her soft voice -in the air. " Wherever I roved, over vale, wood, or hill, The - Spirit of Beauty would'follow me still She danced in the aspen, she sighed in the gale, She wept in the, shower, she blushed in the vale ; Her mantle was thrown o'er the misty hrake, Her splendour shone on the sparkling lake; I felt her breath in the breezes of even, Her robe floated over the blue of heaven. Wherever.l roved, over vale, wood, or hill, The Spirit of Beauty would follow me still. Not the buzz of an insect, or carol of bird, Not an "rho nor sound in the valley was heard, Not a wild-briar rose its fragrance breathed, Not an elm_its clustering foliage wreathed, Not a violet opened its leaves of blue, Not a plant or flow - er in the valley grew, Not an ivy caressing the rock or the wall, But the Spirit of Beauty was over they all!"

VERSES SENT BY A YOUNG LADY TO HER NEWLY-MARRIED FRIEND, (From the French of Beranger.) Love, Hymen, Interest, and Folly, Once Puss-in-the-corner played ; Friendship—foe to melancholy — To be of the party prayed. When the mind 's to pleasure given, Wiedom soon will cease to warn her ; Friendship, now by Folly driven, Finds it hard to keep her corner. Love—the sly, malicious boy, . Whose delight is to betray— Neat his wiles 'gan to employ, To drive Friendship far away. To jealous Love, the adoring heart All must yield, or else he'll scorn her ; poor Friendship ! play your part, Or Love will siip into your corner. Hymen comes ! all on him wait ; His mantle Friendship must prepare ; Hymen, marching forth in state, Leaves her in company of Care ; At home, the god puts on wise airs, Declares that Friendship 's a mere fawner, And, beckoning Interest up-stairs, Instals him quickly in her corner. Far from thy gentle breast, my dear, Folly and Interest must fly ! Love and Hymen yet I fear, Lest they pass poor Friendship by. Ah ! whilst you welcome to your heart The brother gods who so adorn her, . One little nook preserve apart, And let Friendship keep her corner. (London Saturday Journal, Part 4, April, 1839.) CONTEMPORARY PRESS. '..,NATIONAL EDUCATION. (Front the Staffordshire Gazette.) We have always been of opinion that " Defender of the Faith" is the highest and most awful attribute of the British Crown, because it implies an authority of a spiritual nature—an authority in virtue of which the Kings . and Queens of England are as sternly called upon to watch over the souls as to protect the persons of their subjects. But the power once vested in the Crown, for weal or woe, has been so completely ab sorbed by its late ministers, that the responsibility which Would otherh ise have attached to the reigning Sovereign, has now devolved almost entirely upon her advisers, and it is with them therefore that we have now -to deal. , . • All must be aware, that they who are stationed at tI foot of the throne, and in whose keeping the con lence. of their royal mistress is placed, are bound by virtuous pr . every ihetple—by every generous feeling— by every honourable tie—to protect her honour from the Slightest stain, and most scrupulously to guard against any violation of the sacred engagement to pro tect the Protestant religion of these realms, to which, when she mounted the throne, she became so solemnly pledged. But we have already been too well and too long` acquainted with the defunct ministers to suppose fora moment that any righteous motives would sway them.for an instant, or that they would be influenced by any higher considerations than those of self-interest ari4love of place. Accordingly, we had no reason to e: , ipect . that-the " Scheme of Education" which they were known to he concocting, would, when it come to be announced, offer any security to the Established Church, or in any way to discountenance the various forms of religion (or of irreligion) which are so di rectly, opposed to her doctrines. Nor did they disap point oar expectations : its " scheme" is at length be fore the public, and such a scheme it is as they alone would have stooped to sanction, who are alike indiffe rent to the forms, ignorant of the principles, and stran gers to the feeling of all religion whatsoever. Take a few specimens. Schools are to be established, in which Roman Catholics.are not only to be admitted, but. are to use, if they think fit, their own version of the Scriptures ! Licensed teachers of bodies dissent ing from the Established Church are to be appointed whenever the number of scholars in their respective persuasions seems to require it, and other enormities are to be countenanced which must be equally shock- . ing to both Churchmen and Dissenters ! Although religion, as they set out with affirming, is to be made a grand feature ih the scheme which they proposed, and (we quote the very words) " is to be combined with the whole matter of instruction, and to regulate the whole system of discipline," still the precise kind of religion that is to be inculcated is a thing too trivial to be taken any cognizance of ! They declared that to be indispensable as a whole, about which in the details • they are utterly ebareiess ! But the charge, however serious, of indifference in religious matters, is not the heaviest accusation with which their reputation is now blasted. Though their Sovereign has sworn—though they themselves have sworn—to preserve in al! its in tegrity our Protestant constitution—see how regardless they have been both of their own reputation, and of that of the august lady for whose acts they were re sponsible If they had openly avowed infidelity—if they had publicly embraced Popery, we might have pitied; but could not have blamed them ; but to swear to uphold, and yet be ready to throw down—to desig nate in their oaths. as .‘; damnable and idolatrous" the very religion Which they now take under their protec tion—it is impious—it is monstrous ! Mucli'mOre we had intended' to say, but we shall re serve any further remarks for another time ; and for the present content ourselves with inquiring how far this iniquitous scheme of mongrel education is likely to be supported by . our county representatives. specting Lord Ingestre and Mr. Baring no questions need be asked ; not so as regards Colonel Anson and Mr. Buller. As to the former, we are not aware that he has at all concerned himself about matters either of education or religion, and where there is indifference we have but too much reason to apprehend impiety. Mr. Buller, on the other hand, may be virtually consi dered as pledged to support the government scheme ; so much at least may fairly be inferred from the sen timents which he expressed in January last, at a meet ting held in the " British School," Shelton, where he was entertained at tea by those Kilhamite leaders, the Messrs. Ridgway, and other congenial spirits, who (it must not be forgotten) complimented their guest on his opinions, and were in return complimented by him on their - own. Amongst other things he deplored the difficulty which existed of bringing together the chil dren of persons of different persuasions, which, if others did but think as he did, would never have oc curred ;• he was for education " without distinction of creed ;" he was disposed teithink that " differences of npin7son on religious subjects would appear of minor importance when - compare(' with the momentous ob ject-•inhvhicii all were alike interested—the diffusion of a sound, moral, and religious education." Without - CoraMeht on the palpable absurdity of the concluding pa7zlgruplL (which we. have copied from the report as given by the Advertiser,) we would ask Mr. Buller the foffewitzgr, question :—" Would you, sir, allow your son to he placed at a school where lie might have a Roman (,"e:o:ic for a form-fellow on his - right hand, and a SoCinian, o:- Kilhamite on his left ?

We are glad to find that Christopher has commenced a series of articles on " Our Descriptive Poetry" in the, present number, The subject is one which cannot fail to draw from his practised pen some very vivid sketches. " The Picture Gallery" is still as interesting and cleverly written as ever. " Hallowed Ground" is a delightful poem, full of true pathos. " The Goddess Venus in the Middle Ages" is also excellent in its way. The continuation of the " Irish Oyster-Eater's Auto biography" has afforded us a rich treat in the perusal. His descriptive powers are almost equal to those of Boz himself. The translation of the twenty-second book of the Iliad is well executed. The letter on " Scotch Nationality" contains some very just and faithful criticisms. "Assassins and Bull-fights" is the title of a horrifying narrative from the Baron Von Auffenberg. The " Prospectus of a History of our Family," and the " Notes of a Traveller," are agree able specimens of light reading. Blackwood has en tirely eschewed politics this month. How is this ? Fraser's Magazine. May, 1839. The political articles in Fraser are generally of first rate order—worth the weight of the magazine in gold. How is it that the present number is without a single article of this description ? In other respects, the pre sent number is a capital one—full of vigour and fresh ness. The essay on " Oneiromancy" is curious. "One or two Guesses at one or two Truths" is a piquant ar ticle; containing much truth pleasantly told. The cri tique on " The Sacred Poets" contains some passages of exquisite beauty. " Practical Reasoning versus Im practicable Theories" is the best paper in this number. It is a formal critique on Miss Martineau's " Society in America," in which that lady's speculations are handled with becoming severity. `• Robyn Hode and Kynge Richarde'is a "right pleasaunt" ballad. Those who open this number to enjoy a hearty laugh will not fail to turn to " Catherine," a tale from the pen of the illustrious " Ikey Solomons." The observations on Lady Bulwer's " Cheveley" are sensible and just. The Dublin University Magazine. May, 1839. This number opens with an excellent article_ on " Ireland under Lord Normanby," which is quite sea sonable at the present crisis. The gross misgovern ment of the would-be premier is exposed in the most glowing terms. " The High Cross, by Bonn" is a truly German legend. The review of " Dr. Maunsell on Political .Nledicine," contains a variety of interesting statistical details on the relation of medicine to govern ment and legislation. The " Continental Gossipings" of Harry Lorrequer are in the best style of the author — light and sketchy, and pervaded by a rich vein of hu mour. The critique on Miller's " Modern History Philosophically Illustrated" embodies sound views in clear and forcible language. The story of " Schalken the Painter" is repulsively horrible. We cannot agree with many of the remarks in the essay on " Women in Ireland." It is written in too flattering a strain. " A Polish Chateau in the last century" is a powerfully written narrative. This number of the University Magazine contains some exquisite specimens of original poetry from various authors. The Asiatic Journal. May, 1839. At the present important crisis this magazine cannot but prove one of the most interesting placed on our table. The copious details which it furnishes us re specting the affairs of the East in general, and the operations of the British army on the northern frontiers Of India, render it a valuable companion to the news papers of the day. In the " Review of Eastern News" we have an excellent analysis of the most recent intel ligence respecting the aggressive proceedings of Russia. The essay on " Anglo-India Life" contains some extra ordinary anecdotes connected with " Marriages, Elope ments, and Disappointments." The review of Rich's " Babylon and Persepolis" is interesting to the anti quarian reader. The paper on " The Literary Taste of the Orientals" contains much curious information. We have been greatly pleased with the remarks on the " Cultivation of Tea in British India." This subject is one of the greatest importance. We are glad to find that a company has already been formed for developing the resources of Assam. The Oriental Herald. May, 1839. We are glad to find that this excellent miscellany is still in existence. It is some time since we have been favoured with a copy. This number opens with an admirable essay on the " Indian Crisis," in which Lord Auckland's measures are reviewed at some length. We may probably avail ourselves, on a future occasion, of the information which it embodies. " The Scenes of Hindoo Pilgrimage" contain some curious particu lars respecting the resorts of the religious ascetics of India. The article on "The Army" is sensibly and forcibly written. We have been much pleased with the notes appended to the " Ode to the Ganges." The synopsis of oriental intelligence presented in this spirited periodical is exceedingly copious : it embraces news from Calcutta, Madras, Bombay, Ceylon, Aden, Mauritius, Siam, Sincapore, Burmah, Penang, China, Java, and Australasia. The " Asiatic Register" is also of great value. It contains a full account of all ap pointments, promotions, changes, &c., civil, ecclesias tical, medical, and military, &c. &c. Foreign Monthly Review, and Continental Literary Journal. No. 1. May, 1839. _ _ _ From the talent and energy displayed in the first number of this new competitor, we augur for it a long and prosperous career. It contains several articles of first-rate merit. One of its principal merits is the great variety which it contains : none of the articles are spun out to an unreasonable length. This is a feature which must inevitably contribute to its popu larity among merely English readers. We are also glad to find, that whenever quotations from the conti nental languages are introduced, a translation is ap pended. Among the more interesting papers in this number we would enumerate those on The Lyric Poets of Germany"—" Elementary Education in Hol land and Belgium"—" The Private Life of Napoleon" —" Society and Morals in the United States"—" Du mas's Visit to Sinai"—" Reminiscences of Count Du mas"—" Lappenberg's History of England"—and the " Literary Tour in Italy." We wish this excellent magazine every success. The Monthly Law Magazine. May, 1839. 'We cannot speak in too high terms of this truly constitutional magazine. The number before us con tains some invaluable essays on various subjects con nected with politics and legislation. The introductory paper on the " Metropolitan Police Bill," contains some very powerful remarks on the centralizing system which the Whigs seek to introduce into the govern ment of this country. The monthly observations on " the House of Commons" are of a very cutting character. We have next a very elaborate essay on "Degrees in Secondary Evidence; or, a Discussion of the Question whether there are any, and what Degrees of Secondary Evidence, recognized by Law." The subject is handled with great ability. Another profes sional article follows, under the title of." The Liabilities of Parties, and particularly of Attorneys, when Pro ceedings are set aside for irregularity." The miscel laneous information, reports, abridgments, &c., in this magazine, are eminently valuable. The Aldine Magazine. May, 1839. Variety is the leading feature of this excellent peri odical. * Prefixed to each number there is a lithographic plate con'aining fac similes of the autographs of the most eminent London publishers. The letter-press contains a succession of essays and papers on bio graphical, bibliographical, critical, and other subjects, most of them written in a smooth and attractive style. Its tales, poetry, &c., are also of a superior order. The present number is exceedingly interesting, especially abounding in anecdotes respecting authors, artists, books, and booksellers. The essay on "The Patronage of the Arts," is cleverly written, and contains many valuable suggestions. The essay on the "Advantages of being Blind," is well worth perusal. In its reviews and more miscellaneous information the Aldine dis plays considerable taste and judgment. Confessions of Harry Lorrequer. No. 3. The continuation of these admirable memoirs con tinues to sustain the interest and curiosity of the reader, as much as the preceding numbers.. We hope that we may have the pleasure of accompanying the light-hearted Harry through twenty more numbers of his laughable narrative. We regret to find that, owing to the illness of the artist (Phiz,) the drolleries of Lor equer have not been illustrated in the present number. These adventures must become increasingly popular, if there be any thing like taste among British readers. The captain of a merchant vessel recently arrived at Mar -tellies from Senegal relates that, when close in with the coast of Catalonia, he was overtaken by a violent hail storm, which lasted three-quarters of an hour, and drove great numbers of birds on board his ship, many of them dying on the deck. Others fell dead in the water, killed by the magnitude of the hail stones, some of which were more than an inch in diame ter. When the storm ceased, the deck was covered with hail stones to the depth of six or seven inches. SINGULAR CAPTURE OF AN OTTER—During the night of Friday last, as the fishermen at the station below the Linn of Camsie were dragging their netts ashore, they found the oag to contain, not a good haul of salmon, which the splash ing and resistance had led diem to anticipate, but an otter which measured nearly six feet in length. This animal which usually makes its escape easily when enclosed in-a salmon net by biting through the meshes, had been caught in the present instance by a portion of the line getting entangled in its fore teeth, which it had not been able to extricate in time to escape capture. In the upper parts of the river the otter is very destructive to the salmon, but it is seldom found so far down and of so large a size.—Perth Courier. NIGHT ASPECT OF THE HEAVENS. — At this time all the planets, with the exception of the four ultra-zodiacal, are to be seen in the heavens in their natural order, that is, as their distance from the sun. Mercury appears shortly after sun set, but will be invisible about the 25th of this month. Venus, Mars, and Jupiter come next, and are very conspicuous ob ject 6 in the heavens—the former in the west, and the latter in the east part of the horizon. Mars is situated a little to the west of Jupiter, and forms a triangle with that planet and Arcturus ; Saturn is in the constellation Scorpio, and rises a little after ten p. m. Altogether at this time the heavens present a very interesting appearance ; for, besides the three planets above-mentioned, many stars of the first magnitude are to be seen at the same time. Sirius and the belt of Orion, in the south-west, cannot fail to, attract the attention of the young astronomer, the former being the nearest as well als the n.tost crf all tire Cud :Alm ALARMING RIOTS IN THE POTTERIES. (From the Stafordshire Gazette.) For the last three• or four days Lane End has been the scene of riot and confusion fomented by a mob of miserable and deluded men. The disturbances assumed a serious as pect, involving we fear, the ultimate loss of life. The ca valry and yeomanry were called out, and succeeded in re pressing the rioters, but not without being compelled to fire several times on the 'misguided men, some of whom were wounded, and a few of whom are not expected to recover. Tranquillity is now partially restored, and we trust, that we shall.not have to record any fresh outbreak. In this county, indeed, little apprehenifon need be entertained of the violence of Chartists or any other description of rebellious vagabonds, for its yeomanry troops are both numerous and efficient, and are fully prepared to meet any insurrectionary disturbance. Below, we subjoin from our correspondents, a detailed ac count of the transactions at which we have glanced. (From a Correspondent.) RIOTS AT LANE END.—On Wednesday morning, an at tempt was made by the mob at Lane End, to rescue some persons who had been taken into custody by the police. The Watch-house became the scene of attack from the mob, who continued to harass the police throughout the day. At 7p. m., 14 of the Newcastle yeomanry were mustered, who immedi ately marchedinto Lane End, under the command of Captain Tomlinson, to support the police. The violence of the mob increased, as night drew on. After having patiently borne for some hours a most violent assault of stones, and other missiles from the mob, it was found necessary to fire upon them. The first volley was directed over their heads, but this course was not pursued. The darkness of the night ren dered it difficult to fire effectually, but at different intervals 3 were killed on the spot, or died of their wounds, and up wards of 40 wounded. Thursday morning,. the Stafford troop rode into Lane End, and at one o'clock of the day, the Ut toxeter yeomanry, arrived at Trentham. We were much struck with the soldier-like appearance of the men andhorses. The concurrence of the Horticultural exhibition,, and the meeting of magistrates, police, and yeomanry, assembled at Trentham Inn, gave a air of unusual bustle to that beautiful village. We observed there the magistrates—R. Adderly, Esq., .Captain R. Mainwaring, and the Honourable Arthur Talbot. Lord Talbot was also there. All of the 23 persons were committed for trial at Stafford. The appearance of those miserable wretches could awaken alarm no less than pity. We understand that Captain Tomlinson, and Lieut. Wilson, still remain with their troops under arms at Lane End. No further attacks are anticipated to night. Some of the mob are possessed with fire arms, which they employed against the military. Whether. Chartists or not, it is plain we have to deal with insurrectionists of a much more desper ate character than those who disturbed the Potteries at the last election. We trust, therefore, that ill-timed mercy may not be mistaken for clemency. The following is a list of some of the prisoners who are now on their way to Stafford Gaol :—George Turner, Thomas Bloor, Daniel Rhodes, Wm. Heath, Peter Balderstone, and Edward Bethell. The mob at different times is represented as varying from 5,000 to 10,000. The room at Trentham, in which were assembled magistrates, policemen with bandaged arms, and faces bear ing witness to their own courage and the ferocity of the mob, prisoners of a most unhappy aspect, clerks and witnesses, and lookers on, all presented such a motley group, that if the subject for whi,a this assemblage had met, had been of a less serious kind, we :bould have been tempted to give a more graphic sketch of this lively scene. (From a Correspondent.) LANE END.—On Tuesday a man took a prominent station in the Market-place, whence he delivered some revolution ary doctrines. The pclice ordered him to desist, and, on his not obeying, took him into custody and led him to the sta tion-house. A mob collected and declared they would liberate him ; some of the most forward of the rioters were captured, which so exasperated their companions that they threatened destruction to the lock-up house. However the assailants were interrupted by the arrival of a recruiting party from Newcastle, and a detachment of the Pottery and Newcastle troop cf yeomanry. Captain Mainwaring of Whitmore, and another magistrate accompanied the forces, and were followed by a carriage of ammunition. As the evening advanced the mob grew more daring, and the cavalry were ordered to fire. They did so, but' only in the air. This had but the effect of emboldening the opponents, who proceeded to greater violence until they were fired upon, a measure which soon dispersed them. Thousands of black guards were pouring in from all directions to Lane End on the Wednesday evening, but they received no countenance from the respectable and thinking portion of the operatives of Stoke. Such of the rioters as were apprehended by the police were conveyed by the recruiting party out of the town to a place of safety, to undergo an examination. One police man has been shockingly maltreated, and one of the cavalry is said to be hurt, a crate having been thrown in the way of his horse, who stumbled over it and unseated his rider. A boy was shot and carried out from the mob, aria many others are wounded. The Uttoxeter and Stafford troop of yeomanry came into the town on Thursday morning. At twelve on Wednesday night the streets in Lane End were perfectly quiet and clear. (From another Correspondent.) The populace have for some time past manifested much ill feeling towards the new police who have lately been intro duced in Lane End. On Tuesday night a mob collected for the purpose of rescuing several prisoners ; the police resisted the attempt, but being very few were soon overpowered, when great excesses were committed by the people. There was a total cessation of business on Wednesday ; in the evening several prisoners were brought to Newcastle. The yeomanry passed a rough night at Lane End. The rioters were throwing stones, and the' troops were firing on their assailants nearly all night. Several persons are wounded, and some of the cavalry have been hurt. No individuals are reported to be dead, but there are one or two whose recovery is deemed hopeless. (From another Correspondent.) TUNSTALL CHARTISTS.—SeveraI strange rumours have reached us of certain proceedings of these misguided men, in the town of Tunstall and its vicinity. Our information pies to the extent of stating, that the lives of certain indivi duals obnoxious to the chartists, have been denounced. We shall have an eye to this matter. Meanwhile, we know that the greatest excitement prevailed on Tuesday evening, and Wednesday morning last, in consequence of the non-ap pearance of a chartist delegate, who had been dispatched on some secret message to Manchester, and who, not returning at the time anticipated, was supposed to be apprehended. [From an Eye-witness.] In the evening of Tuesday, the 6th inst., some of the po lice officers were called to stop a disturbance made by some drunken fellows in a beer-house. When the officers arrived they were insulted by some of the men, whom they afterwards took into custody : in consequence of which, the police were pelted with stones by some of the companions of the men. Several of the party were secured and lodged in the lock-up. The next morning persons to the number of 4 or 500 as sembled about the lock-up, annoyed the police by throwing stones at them, and threatened to rescue the prisoners when night came on. It was, by the principal inhabitants of the town, thought prudent to call in the aid of the whole police force from Fenton and Stoke- - ipon-Trent, as well as the Newcastle troop of yeomanry cavalry, and accordingly mes sengers were dispatched for the purpose. The populace con tinued about the lock-up the whole of the day, and until the arrival of the cavalry. The cavalry and pi 1 cue were pelted with stones, brick-bats, &c. A car• was sent from Newcastle for the prisoners confined in the lock-up, under an escort of 10 foot soldiers, and the prisoners were accordingly conveyed to Newcastle. After repeated ineffectual attempts to restore order, the riot act was read, and the mob were desired to disperse, but they refused to do so, and continued to throw stones, &c., at the police and cavalry until about 9 o'clock, when things beginning to wear a serious aspect, the cavalry were ordered to clear the streets. •Blank cartridge was fired at first, but that not having any effect in dispersing the mob, the cavalry fired ball cartridge, and also used their swords. Several persons were wounde d—mie very dangerously, a ball having entered his abdomen. Another was wounded in the thigh with a ball—another is cut very seriously cut on the head, and is not expected to recover. Others were wounded less seriously. Eighteen were taken into custody, and con veyed to a meeting of the magistrates on Thursday morning, at Trentham. A part of the Stafford troop of yeomanry ar rived this morning, and a number of toe Uttoxeter troop have come in this afterncoa. Lord Talbot has sent a special messenger to Birmingham for the dra„oons. BY EXPRESS.—Lane End, Friday, One o'clock.—The rioters are subdued, all is quiet. The yeomanry ar•e still in attendance, six of them are very badly wounded, we hope not dangerously. Nothing could exceed their courage, firmness, and forbearance. If anything occurs I will send another ex press immediately. Ten prisoners have been sent in chains to Stafford.—(From our Reporter.) On Thursday morning sixteen of the rioters, handcuffed and chained together, were escorted to the Inn,at Trentham, by a party of the Newcastle troop, and the pottery police. Captain Mainwaring and the Hon. and Rev. A. C. Talbot formed a petty sessions, and after taking the depositions of witnesses, committed the whole of this party of rioters to Staftbrd gaol, whither they were conducted in the evening. STATE OF TRADE. LEEDS.—We have nothing new to report regarding the as pect of the woollen trade at Leeds, except that the complaints of the dullness of the markets have increased. On Tuesday, there was a very fiat demand for balk cloths in the halls, but still the manufactories and dressing shops are working full time. The wool market is firmer, and there is no doubt that trade would be much more buoyant but for the pressure on the money market. BRADFORD MARKET.—We had an average demand for manufactured goods at our market on Thursday, and in some descriptions more extensive sales were effected. The Yarn market was rather dull, and prices by no means encouraging. In the Wool market there was less business done, and in some instances a slight depreciation of price was submitted to. Ge nerally, however, the staplers held firmly, as there is no reason to expect a material decline in the value of wool. WAKEFIELD WOOL MARKET, MAY 10.—We have again to report an exceedingly dull market for all wools, and the tendency of prices is still rather downwards. The generality of holders are, nowever, indisposed to give way much in price, so long as the consumption continues undiminished, and the growers remain so firm. HECKMONDWIKE.—Very little business has been done in the Blanket Hall for the last two or three weeks, the manu facturers not being able to sell at reduced prices, owing to the steady price of wool. YORK WOOL MARKET, MAY 9.—The first market for this season commenced to-day. There was a large quantity of Wool in, (new and old,) but an unusually small number of buyers. Few, if any sales were effected, for which reason prices cannot be quoted. BARNSLEY LINEN TRADE.—We are sorry to state that the linen trade of this town is not quite so good as it has been, and many hands are at present out of employment. M. Paer, the musical composer, died in Paris on Saturday last. The Earl of Uxbridge was appointed lord chamberlain on Tuesday ; his lordship resigned the following day, but does not escape the necessary fees on taking office. Very pleasant, but as the Irishman remarked, " think of the honour." A GREEDY Fox.—Throughout the whole of last winter, and during this spring, the farm-yards in Underskiddaw and neighbourhood have been nightly plundered of every species of poultry they contained. Turkeys, geese, hens, and ducks were carried off invisibly by wholesale, and no one was able to discover the extensive plunderer until Friday last, when he was ascertained to be a remarkably large dog fox. Rey nard, it appears, had gone upon his marauding visits once too often. He had taken up his quarters in a noted beild, a little above Applethwaite, near the foot of the majestic Skiddaw, which was a very convenient habitation for the scenes of his destructive excursions, and on Thursday night made his last gormandizing sally. On Friday morning Rey nard was watched by a noted sportsman of the right sort, residing at Applethwaite, near Keswick, who, after consider able exertion, discovered the mansion of this extensive de stroyer of the feathered tribe, and the bones, &c., which lay strewn around bore ample testimony to the extent of his depredations. The wily animal had been somewhat fanciful in his taste, and, after becoming tired of the different kinds of poultry on which he so sumptuously fared, would now and then help himself to a lamb or two by way of change, and in this fashion appeared to be ekeing out a really com fortable life ; but, as the sequel shows, he had so long and so inordinately indulged upon dainties, that he had lost all measurement of his stomach, for, on the sportsman gaining access to the interior of his stronghold, the very singular circumstance presented itself we have now to it late. The animal, which had been in the act of devouring a tine turkey, stolen the previous night from a neighbouring farm-yard, was found quite dead, and his decease was evidently caused by his gormandizing prdpensities, having eaten until he had any blint I—Ckrftie Po4riei. MISCELLANEOUS. The extraordinary number of eleven bishopricks have been at the disposal of the Melbourne ministry since their coming into office in April, 1835. We understand that the Shipping Company at Hull, have determined to establish immediately a line of new A 1 packet ships between that port and New York.—Leeds Intelligencer At a chartist meeting at Bolton last week, Bronterre O'Brien addressed the assembly, and the chaiiman expressed a hope that their visitor " would live to show that he pos sessed the same virtues as Robespierre." A trout, caught in the lake of Buttermere, was this week exposed for sale in the shop of Messrs. Wilson, fishmongers, in this town, which, although it did not measure more than 18 inches in length, weighed upwards of nine pounds. So fine a grown fish we never before held.— Whitehaven Herald. The Countess of Essex. late Miss Stevens, receives under his lordship's will a jointure of £3OOO. per annum, together with Cast,iobury Park, and the residence in Belgrave-square, London. The remainder of the property, and the title, de- votive upon his lordship's nephew, Arthur Capel. The two Ripon troops of the Yorkshire Hussars have re ceived orders to hold themselves in readiness, should their services be required in any part of the manufacturing district in the West Riding of Yorkshire. MR. GIBSON.—At a numerous meeting of the members of the Wellington Club, on Thursday last, it was resolved— " that Mr. T. M. Gibson has forfeited the confidence of the conservative electors of this borough by his recent conduct in parliament, and that he be not supported at any future election."—lpswich Journal. By a return to the House of Commons of the number of persons imprisoned for civil debts in the different jails in Scotland, for the first three months in 1838, it appeared that the number imprisoned for debts not exceeding £B. 6s. Bd. was 54, and for debts exceeding £B. 6s. Bd. the number was 151. CROPS.—Letters received 'from different parts of the country, state that the improvement in the appearance of the growing crop of wheat within the last few days has been ex tremely great, the ill effects produced by the subsequent cold having entirely vanished, and the plant, we are informed now wears a remarkably healthy and vigorous aspect. The editor of the Scottish Pilot apologizes for a ludicrous erratum, viz., the addition to a straw-bonnet maker's adver tisement of the following notice :—" Best salmon roe, and baits of every description on hand, at all times !" The no tice, it appears, had strayed from a fishing-rod maker's an nouncement. • MIDLAND COUNTIES RAILWAY.—The rue of this railway, from Nottingham to Derby, will be opened on June the 4th, to the public ; but a large party of the directors, sharehold ers, and their friends, intend to make a journey to Derby, on the 29th of this month, to see that every thing is ready for the public opening. ARRES r OF VINCENT.—On Wednesday morning, at one o'clock, Vincent, a printer, and delegate to the national con vention, was arrested at his house, near Cromer-street, Lon don, by Keys, a Bow-street officer, and Romer, a country policeman, from Tredeger, in North Wales, on a warrant sent by five magistrates of the Newport sessions, for attend ing a riotous assemblage held at Newport some ten days since. CONSERVATIVE PUNCH.—We have been favoured with a table of the ingredients used in filling that noble punch bowl, "Guy's Porridge Pot" at the late festivities at Warwick Castle :-25 gallons of old rum, 15 gallons of brandy, 18 doz. Of lemons, 3 doz. of oranges, 90 pounds of sugar.—North ampton Herald. A FRIENLY INTIMATION.—The boarders of a tavern in Georgia (United States) were annoyed by flies in their butter. Judge Dooly took the tavern-keeper aside, and• remarked to him, in a private way, that some of his friends thought it would be best for him to put the butter on one plate and the flies on another, and let the people mix them to suit them selves. He merely suggested it for their consideration. THE STEPHENS' DEFENCE FUND.—We hear that one of the modes adopted for raising subscriptions to the fund for the defence of the Rev. Joseph Rayner Stephens, is for the collector to present, the subscription-book with one hand, and to hold out the other, containing a leaden bullet, to re ceive the amount contributed. In cases where the party refuses his aid, his name is written in the book in red ink. — Leeds Intelligeneer. THE MILITARY.—In the early part of the present week orders were received by the military forces stationed at Leeds, by the Yorkshire Hussar Yeomanry, &c., to hold themselves in readiness for immediate service at a few mi nutes' notice, in case of any movement of the Chartists. Yesterday,, the Leeds squadron of the Yorkshire Hussars, under the command of Major Beckett, mustered for a prac tice drill on Woodhouse Moor.—lbid. BOROUGH OF HALIFAX.—The Conservatives of this once good and loyal old town are looking forward with hope for an election, being quite prepared to redeem its character by returning one member at least of constitutional principles. We have not heard who is fixed upon, but the general opinion of the electors is, that no candidate need offer who is not de cidedly opposed to the centralization system, and the irre sponsible power 'vested in the Poor Law Commissioners.— Ibid. OTTERS. — The rivers in the neighbourhood of Keswick, it is said, literally swarm with otters, and, as no particular means are taken to destroy them, they continue to increase. Several young ones have lately been' caught by some active young men. It is well known that the otter is a most for midable and destructive foe to every species of the finny tribe, and we think measures should be taken to destroy them.—Carlisle. Patriot. A FEROCIOUS MONKEY.—A monkey the other day made a furious attack on a servant girl at Maryport, and so lace rated the muscles and tendons of her leg and other parts of her body, as to endanger her life. The brute had frequently evinced his ferocious disposition, but the girl had not ex pected to be attacked when off her guard, as she had for sometime back been his feeder. The animal was instantly destroyed.—lbid. PRECURSORS IN CARLISLE. — A military picquet has this week been appointed to patrol the streets of the city at night. This precautionary measure has, we suppose, been adopted in consequence of our having exposed the existence of a branch of the Precursors in Carlisle. It will be found, how ever, that:neither soldiers nor police will be able to prevent or repress outrages unless the streets be lighted. The state of darkness in which the city has been kept during the last fortnight, is absolutely disgraceful to the character of the city.—lbid. LAMBING. — The accounts from the Highland districts are, we are sorry to say, very unfavourable as to the progress of the lambing this season. There is still a good deal of snow upon the higher grounds, and the long protracted winter had left the ewes in such bad condition, that a much larger pro portion of deaths has occurred than for some years past. This applies, we understand, chiefly to the stock upon all the higher grounds in this county and Inverness-shire.—Perth Courier. HER MAJESTY. — We understand from good authority, that the queen's attention to business is unremitting •, that neither exercise, amusement, sleep, or even meals, are allowed to cause the least delay to the public' service ; and that in ac tivity, and forgetfulness of self where duty is concerned, there are few who might not benefit by royal example. She has, been known to rise and quit the room when but just seated at the dinner table, leaving her attendants to their repast, while her attention has been first given to the newly-arrived despatch box; As her majesty has never appointed a private, secretary, political affairs pass through no hands but those of the sovereign and her ministers. Not many people are aware of the labour which is thus entailed upon her. The character of our queen is national property ; and time only is required for the country' fully to appreciate the quiet perse verance, tact, gentleness, and firmness, which will be found united in that of our youthful sovereign.--Manchester Guardian. CHEVET TUNNEL.—This laborious section of the North Midland Railway is in a very forward state, and is expected to be completed in about three months. The tunnel is about three quarters of a mile long, 25 feet wide, and 22 feet high, and the whole is lined with bricks, the number of which is estimated at a million and a quarter. Nearly the whole of the tunnel is cut throngh hard rock. The excavation at the entrance at the Chevet "end is 36 feet deep, and at the Walton end about 60 feet. The greatest depth of the tunnel from the surface is 63 feet. The contractor is Mr. Shaw, of Milnthorpe, late of Worsbro' Dale.—Bull Times. There has been a considerable activity in the ordnance de partment of the Tower of London during the last few days in sending off stores, arms, and ammunition, for the use of the military, in what are now considered the disturbed districts, where the chartists have assembled in large numbers. On Tuesday and Wednesday, stores of all descriptions were for. warded by railway and by water conveyance to the northern and other parts of England from the Tower, and the stay of the troops is.expected to be of long duration. ' WESTBURY, WILTS, MAY B.—You W . ll bepleased to hear of the arrest of Potts, the chartist leader of Trowbridge ; and Roberts, the leader of Bath ; Tucker, the leader of Westbury ; and three others of inferior note. Tucker and two others were arrested by the special constables after the illegal meeting at Westbury. Potts then escaped, but was apprehended yesterday at Trowbridge. Roberts came to Westbury to defend him : the magistrates had him seized in the hall. Both Potts and Roberts are just gone off to Salis bury gaol, in default of bail ; each was required to give £5OO, and two sureties of £250 each. Sixty-six bnllets, a loaded pistol, leaden gun, flint carriers, a dagger, three clubs, and a large knife, were found in Potts's house. SHAKSPEARE ON THE NEW MARRIAGE ACT.—Jacques says to Touchstone :—" And will you, being a man of your breeding, be married under a bush, like a beggar? Get you to church, and have a good priest that can tell you what marriage is : this fellow will but join you altogether as they join wainscot ; then one of you will prove a shrunk pannel, and like green timber, warp." The reply of Touchstone is given aside, and may be appropriated to many a stickler for " civil contracts :"—" I am not in the mind, but I were better to be married of him than another ; for he is not likely to marry me well ; and not being well married, it will be " a good excuse for me hereafter to leave my wife.' " Banks for Savinp (including friendly societies) were com menced the 6th of August. 1817 ; and from that time up to the 20th of November, 1838, the total amount purchased on account of the same, was in stock £29,203,605 12s. 3d., in Es chequer Bills £11,826,150, for which X 38,300,080 6s. sd. were paid ; the total amount of stock sold was £7,283,813 Bs. Bd. and of Exchequer Bills paid off was £11,045,350, in consequence of which £17,580,992 12s. 3d. were paid ; leaving a balance in favour of the Banks for Savings and Friendly Societies of £26,719,087 12s. 2d., of which the amount in vested by Great Britain is £19,693,343 ss. Bd., and by Ire land £3,025,744 18s. 6d. FOREIGN WOOL.—The quantity of foreign wool, sheep, and lambs, imported into the United Kingdom in the year ended Jan. 5, 1839, was 52,606,496 lbs. ; of which there came from Russia, 3,769,102 lbs. ; Germany, 27,506,282 lbs. ; Spain, 1,814,877 lbs. ; Italy, 1,758,894 lbs. ; East India Company's Territories, 1,897,266 lbs. ; New South Wales, 5,323,4111b5. ; Van Dieman's Land, 2,490,992 lbs. ; States of the Rio de la Plata, 1,109,638 lbs . ; and Peru, 2,304,088 lbs. ; Denmark, Prussia, Holland, Belgium, Portugal, Turkey, Morocco, Cape of Good Hope, Chili, &c.,_ contributed smaller quanti ties than those enumerated. The total produced in British Settlements was 10,039,934 lbs. The qu,antity required for home consumption was 55,819,597 lbs. ; the quantity re-ex ported was 1,897,860 lbs.-1,225,339 lbs. The declared value of British woollen manufactures exported was £5,795.069, and of yarn £3,085,892. MARRIAGE EXTRAORDINARY. — A marriage took place at St. Mary's in Scarborough under rather curious circum stances, on Saturday morning last. From what has come to our knowledge it appears that the bridegroom is master of a strange vessel, at present lying in the harbour. A few short days ago he made love to a buxom widow, when an appa rently reciprocal feeling existed. But alas, the course of true love never did run smooth, for the wily bridegroom had evi dently transfixed his affections from the fair widow to a fairer daughter of hers, aged 17. But how to appease her wrath at the circumstance he knew not ; he therefore, on Saturday morning last, sent her to Filey, where he promised to meet lam on Sunday morning, and make her the happiest of women. She being out of the way he popped the question to this daugh ter of hers, when the coyish damsel consented, and on Sunday morning they were accordingly united. After the ceremony the bridegroom took a horse and gig and went to Filey to his new mother-in-law, but alas for him when he communicated the transaction to her, she immediately stepped into the gig, called a by-stander to drive her, and set off instantly to Scar borough, leaving the unhappy bridegroom to make the best of the way back himself. What took place betvceen mother' and daughter on their interview, may be better co,iceiVed: than desoribed.—llug Tomas, Sobtpptng Intriligena. FRIDAY, MAY 10.—Wind E.N.E.

LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, MAY 10. There has been a very animated demand for Sugar during the whole week, particularly for the brown and middling descriptions, which, being very scarce, have realized almost a daily advance in prices, and buyers are still anxious to purchase at the extreme quota tions. The sales consist of 1600 casks B.P. together with 7000 bags of Mauritius, from 65s to 66s 6d, and 4500 bags of good to line white Bengal, at 67s to 69s per cwt. which may also be considered an improvement of fully Is per cwt. upon previous sales. There has been a good demand for Foreign Sugar; 150 chests and 100 brls Pernams have been disposed, fine whites realizing 33s per cwt. and 100 chests brown Bahia, to arrive, at 233 6d per cwt.; a cargo of Manilla, of 450 tons, has also been sold to arrive, at 24s 6d per cwt. —Molasses continue in request, and about 200 puns of Demerara have been sold, at 33s per cwt.—Coffee. The market is almost bare of Plantation, and the sales consequently are very trivial, not ex ceeding 40 casks of Jamaica; the annexed quotations are firmly supported. 20 bales Mocha, of fair quality, brought 94s per cwt. Nothing done in Foreign.—Nothing done in Cocoa ; but a small parcel of Jamaica Ginger sold at los. and 600 bags Bengal at ' , Os per cwt. ; also 180 robins black Pepper at 41d per lb.—Rice. Nothing done in East India ; about 50 tees of dressed Carolina have been sold; at 40s per cwt. duty paid.—The demand for Ruin con tinues, and nearly 400 puns have been sold, chiefly common Lee wards, 3 to 10 O.P. at 39 7(1 to 38 I Id, fine Demerara, 30 to 35 O.P. at 5s 7d to 5s 9d, with a few hhds of East India, 19 to 27 O.P. at 3s 9d to 4s 2d per gallon. The principal part of. the East India Indigo advertised for sale on the 9th inst. was previously withdrawn; of the remainder, about 70 chests, offered little more than 20 found buyers ; previous rates were barely maintained.—The following goods are reported, viz. 20 serous Cochineal (damaged) at 5s 4d to 55 lld for silver, and 6s 3d to 6s 4d for black ; 160 bags Terra Japonica at 24s 6d to 26s ; Kutch, in cakes, at 365; 16 chests Shell Lac at 755; 13 of Lac Dye at is tlct to 2s Gd ; 170 bags Couries at 53s to 565; and 100 bags Bengal Tur meric at 25s.—Small bales of Nitrate of Soda are making at the quotations.—ln Saltpetre the business is still very limited Dyewoods. There is no particular change in Logwood this week ; the sales of Carnpeachy are about 100 rons, at to £l2 10s, and fO of Jamaica at .e 8 lOs to £8 15s per ton ; very trifling sales made in Fustic, and nothing reported in Nicaragua Wood, Barwood, or Camwood.—There is no alteration in the price of Turpentine ; 484 brls have been sold at 138 4d.—ln American tar no sales.—The ousiness in Montreal Pot Ashes has been limited to 100 to 200 brls. at 26s 6cl. at which price, however, there are few sellers. No sales reported of Pearl Ashes.—Quercitron Bark continues in very limited demand, at former rates.—ln the early part of the week some sales of New York Flaxseed, for sowing, were effected at 701 per hhd. but a parcel has subsequently been disposed of at 62s 6d, and this price is no longer obtainable, owing to the advanced statei of the season ; quotations are, therefore, now quite nominal. — Nothing of consequence done in Cloverseed.—Hides. At the pub 11,4 sales to-day, dry salted Ikezils sold briskly, at improving prices, LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MAY 9. The accounts brought by the Great Western again show a con siderable deficiency in the receipts at the various ports of the United States, and a very extensive decrease in the exports to Europe, as compared with the same period last year; this has given the im porters increased confidence, and a few of the leading houses arc offering their stocks ; the market, however, still continues in a a very depressed state, the accounts from the manufacturing dis tricts being so discouraging. Prices of most kinds have again de clined id per lb. with the exception of the good and fine qualities of American, which are scarce, and offered sparingly. Speculators have taken 100 American.

The sales on Saturday amounted to 1500 bales, and to-day about 2000 bales to the trade. No cotton laden vessels have arrived since Friday. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MAY H. The imports of Crain, for the past week, have 'been Arlan. We have, at the same time, had a decidedly better feeling in the trade generally, and, although the business •in Wheat has not been to a great extent, we have had buyers from a distance; and, at yester day's market, rather. higher prices were obtained, particularly for the lower qualities, which, in some instances, brought an advance of id per 701bs. over the quotations of this day se'nnight. Flour has also sold on better terms, and the stocks of home manufac ture are materially reduced. Oats have become scarce, and must be noted fully ld per bushel dearer than on this day week : good mealing are worth 3s Ildto 4s per 45Ibs Oatmeal, too, has been in demand : 36s per 2401b5. has been paid for the best Irish, being Is 6d to 2s per load above our previous quotations, Malting Barley has met less inquiry, and may be bonght on rather easier terms. Beans and Peas as last noted. The duty on Foreign Wheat is still at 105 8d per quarter. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, MAY 13. New Grass Butter is a very free sale ; favourite Waterford and and Carlow brands readily fetch 108 s to 110 s. The quantity coming to market is not abundant, and a continuance of this circumstance will help off the old stocks. New pickled Butter is selling at 102 s to loss. Beef and Pork in steady request at the late currency. Bacon has become an object of speculation, and is about 5s per cwt. better. Prime Belfast 525. Lard unaltered in price.
