In the work entitled F ema l e Beauty, Mrs. A. Walker thus remarks, " In Mrs. N. Geary's Stay the formation of the bosom and of all the parts adapted to prominences is a matter of great ingenuity a n d EXTRAORDINARY BEAUTY." The adoption of this invention is of the most vital importance to he rising generation, as may be seen in Mr. Coulson's work on " Deformities of the Chest and Seine," (2d edition,) where, after enumerating no fewer than ninety-seven diseases arising from the malformation of Stays in ordinary use, he remarks that Mrs. Geary's newly invented Stay is truly use ful, having in its general structure an advantage over every other. Mrs. Geary also holds Certificates from the following Medical Gentlemen, recommending this invention : Sir Jas. E. Anderson, M. D. Sir James Eyre, M.D. Dr. Aldis Dr. G. F. D. Evans Sir Benjamin Brodie, Dart. Dr. Ferguson Dr. Birkbeck Dr. Holland Dr. Bright Dr. James Johnson 1)r. Burn R. Keate, Esq. Dr. Badeley Dr. Locock Dr. G. F.

RECEPTION AND RECOVERY OF PERSONS AFFLICTED WITH DISORDERS OF THE MIND. Af R. HARE begs to announce to the Profession and the 11 Public, that the above Establishment is under his particular Superintendence, and that the most strict attention is paid to the Medical, as well as Moral Treatment of the Individuals who are committed to his care. The Retreat is delightfully situated on Rising Ground at the opening of Aire-Dale, little more than a wile from the town of Leeds; the situation is healthy, cheerful, and also sufficiently retired ; the Gardens and Plantations are exten sive ; the Premises combine proper accommodations for the Exercise and Amusement. of the Patients ' • and the Apart ments are spacious, lofty, well ventilated, and fitted up in the most commodious manner. The Establishment is to be considered more in the light of a temporary Residence in the Country, where the Patient is placed while he undergoes such a plan of treatment as may be necessary to restore the functions of the brain, than as an Asylum, in the common acceptation of the term; hence it is well suited for persons of weak mind, or who may be subject to fits of temporary insanity—for whom confinement is ne cessary.* In recent cases, a perfect and speedy recovery may generally be expected. - . Applications, either personal, or by letter, postage free, addressed 26, East Parade, Leeds, will meet with immediate attention, and have the most satisfactory references, if re quired, to Patients already discharged, or their Friends ; also to Physicians resident in London, Dublin, Leamington, Leeds, Sheffield, Scarborough, Wakefield, Bradford, &c., who have . had occasion to visit Patients at tue Retreat. , (fr_./ 4 1. • . : Z • 7. e . / .6z . - ( " it , . . e_ z r . 4 0 / ...14,,• 7 _ , _ .. _ r k .

The dullness consequent on the approach of Christmas prevails at Hyde Park Corner, as well as other places in the metropolis ; business is excessively flat and not of much importance. The few bets and offers made this afternoon led to no other results than what might have been expected from Monday's transactions. The Angelica colt rose to 16 to 1, a point more than which would have been taken readily. 'We question, indeed, if he was not as good a favourite as either Muley Ishmael or Brother to Euclid, against whom no }rives were named.

Es- Rum, and SONS, Surgeori Dentists, of Oxford -street, London, and Norfolk-street, Sheffield, may be onsulted at Mrs. LLOYD'S, 36, (late 95,) BOLD-STRE Ey, Liverpool, OPPOSITE TILE PALATINE CLUB-IpeSE. Mr. E. continues to FIX ARTIFICIAWEETH on his entirely New Principle, without tying or tuitting wires : they are constructed in such a manner that it is impossible to dis cern them from the productions of nature. The peculiar ad vantages of these Teeth are, that they operate as a support to those which remain in the mouth, if ally, and prevent their ap proximation, and even Loose Teeth are held firm in their sockets by their aid. They may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with fa cility, and will continue securely fixed on the gums ; they will retain their colour,' perform mastication, assist articula tion, and cannot be distinguished from those of natural growth. The inconveniences attending the LOSS of TEETH arc too well known to require comment ; but to those who have not experienced the comforts of Artificial Teeth, Mr. Eskell is desirous of showing the difficulties more or less en dured by every individual without Teeth. When the Teeth fail the destruction of the sockets invariably ensues : one cannot exist without the other. The process of absorption commences immediately after the tooth is extracted, or, in many cases, the gum and sockets waste away, and cause the teethto become loose and drop out. When the teeth are gone and their sockets absorbed, a great vacuum is left in the mouth, which occasions every muscle in the face to be distorted ; and the eyes, the nose, the lips, and chin, are sadly disfigured and drawn from their original position. These Artificial Teeth are constructed to supply this defect of na ture, and gradually to restore the features to that uniformity so essentially requisite to a youthful appearance and perfect articulation. In consequence of the great improvements in'the Mechani cal Departments of Dentistry. Mr. E. is enabled to lower his charges to the following scale : A Single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0 A complete Set 5 0 0 A complete Set of Mineral Teeth, Gold 15 15 0 Plates, highly finished A complete Set of Incorrodible Teeth, first workmanship, usually charged 25 0 0 Fifty Guineas PILLING DECAYED TEETH. Mr. Eskell's celebrated MINERAL TERRA METAL LIC, for tilling Decayed Teeth, without heat, pain, or pressure. This Mineral is applied in a soft state like paste, to the cavity of the Decayed Tooth, however large Or small the cavity ; it hardens in a second into an enamel, becomes incorporated with the outer shell, arresting thereby the pro gress of further Decay, and Toothache, and lasting for many years. Loose Teeth fastened, whether arising from old age, the use of calomel, neglect, or natural diseases of the gums. All other Dental Operations, Scaling, Separating, Extract ing, and Regulating Children's Teeth, Mr. E. performs with ease and safety. Mr. E.'s system of practice combines all the modern im proved methods adopted in London, the only opportunity of the kind to be met with, without visiting the Metropolis.

There is nothing more remarkable in the social habits of the present day, and more particularly in thosu'of the past century, than a general disregard to the maxi sof prudence in regard to health and enjoyment. Henc the vast multi tudes who, having acquired the portion of i enfeebled con stitution, are doomed to the class of habit,efal invalids. Their minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish,' and their bodies weak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously, with pain and difficulty. For this star of nervous derange ment, the celebrated CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM will be found to have peculiar efficacy, strengthening the lan guid system and shedding new hope on the mind. A perse verance in its use has been the happy means of relieving many thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symptoms commonly denominated the NERVOUS. In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with out interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. 'lts _primary object is to relieve those persons who, by an immoderate indulgence in their passions, have ruined their constitutions and brought on a perfect tabis dorsalis ; or, in their way to the consummation of that deplorable malady, are affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu -1 larity, weakness, total impotency, barrenness, &e. But the relief the CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge nerally administers is not confined to these alone : the valetudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents the inheritance of a diseased and unprolitic frame—the deli cate female, whom an immured and inactive life, togethey with an immoderate use of tea and other weak and waterr aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and are, with out timely assistance, sinking into a premature grave ! Such as these, under Divine Influence, the Cordial Balm of Sy riacum will restore to the enjoyment of all the comforts of life. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringes the fibre's of the stomach, and gives hat proper tensity which a good digestion requires. To the young it will afford lasting health, strength, and spirits,•in place of lassitude and debility, and to the aged and infirm it will assuredly furnish great relief and comfort, by gently and safely invigorating the system. It will not give immortality, but if it be in the power of medicine to gild the autumn of declining years, and calmly and serenely protract the close of life beyond its narrow span, this restorative is capable of effecting this grand desideratum. The Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and West In dies for nourishing and invigorating the nervous system and acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions, arising from bilious complaints contracted in hot climates. The studious as well as the sedentary part of the community should never be withont the Cordial Balm of Syriacum, which removes diseases of the head, invigorates the mind, improves the memory, and enlivens the imagination.

LOOSE TEETH FASTEN= And filling Decayed Teeth with Minere Marmoratum. Moss. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeoll , Dentists, respect fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, and fit habitants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have op4iied an Establishment. permanently at No. 38, SEEL.STREET, eight doors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into the cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, hut, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application,. without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beauty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without springs, wires, or ligatures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility, it the following Paris charges : A single Artificial Tooth A complete Set A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first style, with fine gold sockets, usually charged 40 guineas Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied.

A correspondent of the Derbyshire Chronicle states, that on Wednesday last, the body of Ann Johnson, of Duckman ton, who has been dead ten or eleven years, was interred in Sutton church-yard. The deceased had a very peculiar disease—indee*, a disease of so extraordinary a character, that the medical faculty were desirous of securing the body. The friends of the deceased, in order to frustrate the attempts of the agents, preserved the body until Wednesday, when it was interred. Our crier last week announced in the streets, with all due form, that two stray dogs had come into his possession ; and that the owners might have them again on paying the ex penses of " publishing and their tuition." An innocent by stander asked what tuition meant,—"Why wittles and drink, man, to be sure, what else should it mean ?" was the official's reply.—Merthyr Guardian. A BASE AND DARING HOAX. —A most reprehensible hoax has been committed on several highly respectable tradesmen of Cheltenham, by orders purporting to co m e from a solicitor at Gloucester, and requiring goods on a short notice, at a given hour. The several orders were sent through the post-office, and bore the signature (exactly imi tated) of the said attorney. One of our wine-merchants executed an order for very costly foreign wines, among which were four dozens of choice old Hockheimer. His suspicions were luled by the solicitor having before been a bona fide customer, which fact shows that the miscreant who laid the plot must have well known both parties. There is, however, no doubt that he will soon meet with the punishment which he ao justly deserves, as active measure s are b e i ng taken to discover and secure hun.—Cheleenham Chronicle.

Sold by all respectable Medicine Venders.—This medicine is recom mended to all parents, nurses, and others who are entrusted with the management of Children, as aYietlicine of real and approved efficacy in preventing and removing those disorders to which Children in their early Infancy are most liable ; principally proceeding from a redundance of Acidity in the first passages, Wind, the Watery and Dry Gripes, Convul sions, the Frog, &c., in which so many Children fall victims ; but which may, in general, be prevented, by the use of the Preservative. It is also happily calculated for allaying those excruciating Pains which Children suffer in cutting their Teeth ; and will, by being previously used, render this opera tion of Nature perfectly mild and free from danger. It is also equally efficacious in many other Disorders to which Children are liable, as the Rickets, Hooping Cough, &c., and it may be added, that this Medicine is so perfectly inno cent, that it may be given, with the greatest safety, to an Infant immediately after birth ; and its efficacy is fully esta blished by the simple fact, that Seventy Thousand Bottles are annually sold in Great Britain alone. N.B.—Plcase to be particular in asking for Atkinson's Infant's Preservative, and observe the name of " ROBERT BARKER, 1, Market-place, Manchester," upon the Go vernment Stamp, affixed over the cork of each bottle of the genuine Medicine. Beware of Counterfeits. REG ALTA.—Since the regalia was opened for the inspec tiou of the public, on the 15th of April last, through orders issued by the Lord Provost, the immense number of 28,000 individuals have availed themselves of the opportunity of viewing this beautiful and interesting relic of our ancient monarchy. The visiters. from the prince to the peasant, bare been from all quarters of the globe.—Edinburgh Even ing Post. -- . • • AN HONEST MAN.—Last week, a man named Ramsay, a farmer, from the United States, arrived at Perth on his way to Aberdeenshire, to pay a visit to his friends there. His reason for coming this way was, that about four years ago, he received ten soverigns from a neighbour farmer, when on his death-bed, to give to a brother of his, (if ever he came to SeOtland,) to whom he had sent many letters, but never re ceived any answer ; but the last he, had heard of him was, that he had removed from Edinburgh and gone to live in Perth. After a long and anxious search, he found the man living in a garret in High-street, in very embarrassed circum stances, and gave him the ten s3vereigns ; a welcame supply, no doubt, to one in his condition.—Edinburgh Evening Post. JUSTICE' TO THE ARMY.—It would appear that Lord Hill is fast adapting to the army Mr. O'Connell's mode of doing justic to Ireland. He has, since our last, censured Colonel Thomas, and the officers of the 20th, not for speech making at a public political dinner. What a marvellous change has come over the spirit of his lordship's dream since January, 1837. On the 25th of that month a public political dinner was given to the arch-demagogue O'Connell by the radicals of this county in Mullingar, at which a lieutenant Sandyman, of the 73rd depot, then stationed here, was present, and made a speech, of which his lordship at the Horse Guards was apprised both by public newspapers and private letters ; yet his lordship did not think it a fit occa sion to issue a " circular," or make the least inquiry about it. It was a radical dinner that Mr. Sandyman attended. but Colonel Thomas had the misfortune of being present at a conservative feast, which " alters the case in toto."— Mullingar. paper. THE MONEY LENDER.—" lf, sir, you persist in your course—if you refuse me the mercy of even six days—' I do persist, and I do refuse : and what then, sir?" Then, sir, you will inevitably ruin me !" Sir,' made answer Mr. Bite, fixing his raven eye on the agonised features of his supplicant, sir, I ruin a man a week.' And in this instance —for we would do all justice to the Money-Lender—Mr. Bite uttered the stern, the simple truth. My good sir—' Well, come, you shall have the time,' said Mr. Bite. And let the leader take his assurance ; we paint no shadow, but a real serf of Plutus, a veritable Bite, even as he lived. You shall have the time,- sir,' and Bite's eye sparkled, and he leered like an ogre on his prey. ' We'll call the five hundred, six hundred and fifty, and—' What, sir !—a hundred and fifty for one week ?—you can't ask it ! exclaimed the victim, aghast. You want the accommodation, eh, sir? meekly enquired Bite. It is life or death to me." I know that,' said the flinty Money-Lender, ' and, in such cases, it is always my maxim to sell life as dearly as I can.' ' But Mr. Bite--.' Mr. Bite coughed, took out his watch, and said, Past ten o'clock.' "—Douglas Jerrold. PROSPECTS OF MINISTERS.—Day after day we find the ministerial newspapers employed in the most rancorous, and yet, we must add, ridiculous abuse of Sir Robert Peel. There is something peculiar in the yell of fear and hatred with which their mention of the right honourable baronet's name is now, on all occasions, accompanied. We attribute this to an in stinct of impending destruction, like that which prompts some of the lower animals of the forest to shriek when they hear the lion's approaching tramp. The ministerialists are evidently in an agony of terror, from having heard that Sir Robert Peel means to spare them no longer, but to be down upon them, with the honest indignation of all England at his back, as soon as parliament meets. Most fervently do we hope and trust that Sir Robert will in no degree disappoint either their fears or the hopes of his loyal Protestant fellow countrymen. The time has come to crush these minions of Rowanism—these paltry dependents up m an Irish conspi racy agsinst the British Protestant constitution. We hope, and we believe, that a blow will be struck, and that imme diately, upon the meeting of parliament.—Morning Post. DESTRUCTION OF THE " BRILLIANT" STEAMER.—We have just received accounts from Aberdeen of the total des truction of the Brillient, Leith and Aberdeen steamer, yesterday morning. From the information we have received, we learn that in consequence of the state of the weather during the night, she was obliged to attempt making the harbour of Aberdeen at half-past six o'clock, an hour and a half after high water ; but the heavy sea at the mouth of the harbour rendered her totally unmanageable, and she drove upon the south side of the north pier, nearly opposite the light-staff, and there struck fast upon the flat part of the shoeing. Planks were laid from the vessel to the pier, by means of which almost all the cargo was got ashore, though a great deal of it much damaged. It was thought very dombtful if the vessel would not go to pieces before she was got off; hut, to make the catastrophe sti:l surer, between eight and nine o'clock she took fire, owing it is supposed, to the engine fires having been neglected in the confusion ; and, when the letter conveying our information was written, she was burning with great fury. The masts and funnel had fallen, and there can he no doubt that she has been completely destroyed. We regret to add that the Master (Captain Wade) had been washed overboard and lost before reaching the Aberdeen Bay. The passengers and crew were all saved.—Montrose Standard. Ilona.—A piece of mischievous pleasantry, tarred on to an unwarrantable extent, was playing off upon an unfortunate and credulous individual in Stroud, a few days ago. The person alluded to is a shoemaker in the above town, of the name of James Scuse. It appears Ile had been thinking about the reward offered by government for the best plan for carrying out the penny postage system, and on Tuesday last he received a letter purporting to be from the Secretary of State, informing him that his plan was adopted, and that his presence was required at the Home Office on the following morning. In high glee he informed his neighbours that he was going to London to receive the reward, and actually took his place and started by the mail that night. On his arrival at the Secretary of State's office he sent in his card, and was requested to wait; when Mr. Phillips saw him he showed the letter he had received, but much to the amazement and mortification of poor Scuse, Mr. Phillips informed him it was not his writing, but whoever had done it had executed it well. Mr. Phillips then showed Mr. Scuse that it was an old envelope, the surname on which had been erased, and that of Scuse substituted ; it read—" James Scuse,• Esq. Stroud." So deeply mortified was Mr. Sense, that some other business he intended to perform he was not able to do,. he therefore returned to Stroud by the d a y c oach" the neit day, after expending between four and five pounds, which, if his tormentor has any honesty he will take some means ofrefandingo—Glotteeder Chronicte. CALEDONIAN GOLD CUP. On Monday last, the 9th curt., a considerable number of sporting gentlemen, among whom we recognised the veteran Lord Douglas, assembled at the village of Eagleshatn,. to wanes§ the commencement of the contest for the Caledonian Gold Cup, value 100 sot's. The entries were of a highly promising character, and from the number of English dogs pitted - against the Scotch, the contest was expected to par take of a national character. The keenness of the .frost, however, had rendered the superfices of the ground so hard and firm, that it was found impossible to proceed with the sport without running the risk of cutting up the feet of the dogs. The circumstances which Lave hitherto marred the contest have excited much regret and disappointment among all those fond of, or interested in, coursing, and the more so that there was not a single indifferent dog entered.—Since the above was written, we have ascertained that the trieedng _for this prize, postponed on account of frost, took place yes terday morning at Eaglesham village,at half-past uine — dort in the slips precisely at 'ten. The thaw which commenced on Wednesday night had put the ground into better condition for coursing than was ever experienced on any previous na tional match. 22 brace of dogs were intended to he run yesterday, and 20 brace to-day. The 2d and 3d classes will be run on Monday, affording 32 runs ; the 4th and sth on Tuesday, affording .9 runs ; the tith and 7th on Wednesday, affording 3 runs, and deciding the Cup. A great deal of speculation has already taken place as to the grand reault ; but the precise state of the odds we have it not in our power to give. Mountain Dew, however, is decidedly first favourite at 10 to 9 against any other. An experienced courser has offered to back him at £3O to £2O against any puppy in the race ; and to spew the estimation in which the brindled colour is held in this part of the country, three brindles were offered to be named against any six of any other colour; and the bet was made eren—Mountain Dew, Drivers, and Chance, being the dogs named. England is freely backed at 1 to 4 against Scotland. There is an ordinary at the King's Arms lnu, Hamilton, on Monday, at 6 o'clock. The Earl of Eg- Linton and Lord Douglas will preside.—Glasgow Mail. THE PENNY POSTAGE. Amongst the " authorities" on this questio vexata we find the Gomic Almanac for the forthcoming year strong on the subject i❑ speculation and jeu-de-mots. The following epis tle appears to have been written before the issue of the re cent Treasury minute, substituting a groat for a penny, but it is, notwithstanding, very characteristic of the Post office reform, which presents a mass of legiBlative "confusion worse confounded "by administrative blunders. The comic editor terms the effusion A PENNY-POST-OEIIT. MY DEAR FRIEND—I write to you this letter to explain to you why you have next to nothing to pay for it. The go vernment has settled the business ; and the Chancellor of the Exchequer has resolved to set his revenue a going ly the poet. We are to pay a penny for a letter, which is expected to have upon it the stamp of the Post-office, and of public ap probation at the same time. 1 hardly think it will. Some of the community are looking dull about it already. There is a pence-ive air, about the two—l beg pardon, the—one penny postman, which strikes every one. They intimate that it is a gammon to load a man with an additional hun dred weight of paper, and to call that a reduction of public duty. It clearly affects people of that stamp ; and the pub lic surmise it may even touch the newspapers. In short, they say that the Times will be altered by the Post. Ladies generally seem to like the idea, but there is a visible de pression in the Mails. Many a coachman has beers thrown off his guard, and surprised into a most determined altera tion of carriage. The govern:tient will be a political mid wife, engaged in an evolastieg delivery. London is already afflicted with a metropolitan rheumatism, produced by the introduction of fresh draught into passages, the carpenters having cut holes into all the street doors. Sanguine people however, retain their knockers, in the hope of getting the reward offered for the discovery of perpetual motion : 7 They say there is to be an issue of more than a million of letters a day; but men are a little at issue about this. There must be some truth in it however; as two thousand counter,: have been engaged —one thousand to mod them, and the other to count them upon. Sorters of all sorts are employed. At the Post-offices, at all hours, the pigeon boles will be surrounded by carriers. The poor fellows will be like muskets, perpetually going of Rowland Hill has invented this scheme ; but the postmen do not complain of him so much as the other hills they must trudge over with their great bags of letters. The only district there is any conten tion for is Bag shot heath, once famous for highwaymen. They say, however, that we are all highwaymen now, and do nothing but make them "stand and del;vcr" from morning till night. Some mercantile quarrels have sprung. out of the new regulation. For instance, there is a good deal of milling among the paper-makers. The march of paper will be prodigious—the French say we shall have none left, that it will be all papier magpie ! Men, women, and children are to write—right or wrong. Enjoinments to this duty— now the other duty is off—press from all quarters.. " Be sure you send me plenty of notes," says the son, departing for College. " Write to me often, Billy do," asks the affectionate mother, of her school-going child. Love-letters, containing mutual pledges, will be popped into the Post by thousands; and hearts gone past redemption will be slipped recklessly through a hole in the door. It is uncertain wise. ther orators will not cease spouting, and singers write the notes which they formerly would have uttered. . Ironmongers are looking up—and furgeey is going on famously—in con sequence of the great demand for steam steal pens. Mani fold-writers are quite exhausted. I confess Ido not like the system myself—as it's Hill's, it has its ills; any good in it will appear on an examination— POST POrt.Tk:Nl. THE THAMES TUNNEL—This work i 3 rapidly approach ing towards completion. The Tntinel is now advanced at the rate of eight feet per week. On Wednesday the Duke of Buccleueh and Mr. Walker, civil engineer,. visited the works. - - - EXTRAORDINART LIGHT.—On Monday evening . , as a gentleman was travelling between Rushden and the turnpike. about half-past six o'clock, the atmosphere becahle liaised so that for a few seconds every thing. was perceptible around, as if from artificial light; but the cause of it was not percep tible.—Bedford Mercury. The Queen Dowager, during her stay at the Duke of lint land's, lost a bracelet which she much valued, and which .could not be found during her residence at the castle. Three or four days after Queen Adelaide's departure, a poor woman picked up the bracelet in one of the gravel walks, and took it to the Duke, who, on forwarding it to the Queen Dowager, received in answer a £lO note as a reward for the -finder's honesty. —Lincoln Chronicle MY LORD GREY.—A young girl from Aston Moir, lately come to service in this town, was sent do en street by he: mistress to a shop she had been at once previously ; but un fortunately, having taken the wrong turn, she lost herself in the wilderness of streets, and wandered about the town for above two hours. When questioned, on her return, where she had been so long, she could give no account beyond thrt she had missed her way, and went up one street and down another, round and round, and always came to a luny thing wie an auld mon po Me top 'at !—Neircastle Jor nal. PEDESTRIANISM. — Thursday an interesting nice came off between Lieutenant Simpson, 34th Regiment, and Ensign Bernard, 18th Regiment. They were matched to run front Chatham barracks to Gravesend and back, the distance nine teen miles. Lieutenant Simpson accomplished the distance in three hours and ten minutes. Mr. Bernard gave up the contest at the half-way house on his return from Gravesend, having been attacked with cramp.—Dublin Evening Mail. We hare heard that Sir B. Hal!, M.P., has given out in Monmouthshire, that he intends to stand for that county, should a general election take place shortly. The expellee and the badgering of the new Baronet's Radical constituents in Marylebone, are said to be not very a g reeable to him. We attach no importance, however, to his d:elaratio.is, as it is most unlikely that he should parade his intention, at the present period, if he was in earnest.-- Glouceder Chronicle, Parties selling railway shares at the ['resent reduced prices, are cautioned to see that the transfers, conveying them out of their names, are properly registered in the books of the company, as till that be done their liability continrte, and they virtually guarantee the solvency of the buyer, as regards any subsequent call that may be made upon such shares, till the registration is completed. Nov EST INVENTUS.—WithiII the last week a wedding fiTS to have taken place in the parish of Ardleigh ; the morning arrived, the bride expectant was dressed in readines ;, and the friends had assembled to witne.is the ceremony ; but, to the astonishment of all, the expected bridegroom was not seen or heard of during the day ; and we do not know that he has shown himself since. We forbear to mention names; but the gentleman ought to be well trounced, unless he can show good cause to the contrary.—Essex Standard. - • OWEN' AT HUDDERSFIELD.—Last week, Robert Owen, the Socialist, met with such a reception from a body of gen tlemen assembled at an inn in Huddersfield, -as must have satisfied him that his doctrines are not even tolerable amongst any but the most ignorant classes of society. On - Thursday he made his appearance amongst the commercial gentlemen assembled in the travellers' room, at the George Inn, just at the moment when one of the gentlemen was reading a com mentary upon some of tire extracts from his published' works - which had appeared in the newspapers. When it was ascer tained that the author of such monstrous doctrines was in the room, the landlord was requested to find him - another apart ment; which he did. On the following morning Owen entered the travellers' room with the intention of brea'sfast ing with the company ; but much to their, honour they re fused to sit in company with him. On his entrance all the travellers rose in a body, and one of them, addressing him, remarked, " Sir, we will not allow any man professing your principles to remain in our company." Owen replied, " This is too bad; I have been in better company than yours." To this it was rejoined, "The party was sorry to admit that he had ; but, if Lord Melbourne had no regard for the character of the Court, the commercial travell e r s had too much regard for their character to permit him to associate with them." — Halifax Guardian. GREAT WESTERN RAILWAY.—The works of the Great Western Railway between Dundas and Farrindon are so far advanced that we understand the Directors confidently expect to open the line nearly 30 miles beyond Reading about the same time as to that town itself. In the neighbourhood of Bath the works are making great progress. The " center ings" of the arch over the Wells road, at the bottota cf Holloway, have been removed, and erected at the place where the railway will cross Claverton-street. The arch and the two gothic towers are pronounced to be excellent speci mens of workmanship ; and the entire viaduct, from the taste evinced in its design, will form, when completed, quite an 'ornament to the neighbourhood. At the tunnel near Bathwick terrace, the workmen have commenced the form ation of the pavement way ; and near Hampton-row great advance have been made during the last five or six weeks. Nearly all the soil necessary for turning the canal at that point has been removed, and used in the construction of the railviay ; about 100 yards, exclusive of the inclined place leading to it, having been finished. At Hampton and in the fields beyond the cuttings and embankments are to a-forward state. Close by the stone bridge, between Hampton and Bathwick, the works are also Ve.gintting to alter the farce nt the landscape.—Bath Chronftte. &a7to by Sanction. . SALE OF FOREIGN SWEETMEATS,'Wc.
