PUMPS. 4 0RWICII AGAINST ALL ENGLAND, TEN POUNDS TO A CROWN. SHALDER'S FOUNTAIN PUMPS. The most powerful in the world, with which a man of ten stone weight can raise an imperial barrel of water forty- Three feet high in a minute. but with no other Pump yet tried In a minute and a-half. Their practical gain is most extraor dnary, seldom be!ow 70, and more frequently above 100 per le taking the average of sere results of every altitude from a foot to 100 feet high. Th markable gain in the art of raisin g water was effected in the simplest manner possible, bein g merely by substituting a rolling instead of a sliding prin- VPle for Pumps, by whi c h their friction and leakage was abo phed, a f ter th e tens o f t h ousan d s o f b oot l ess at t emp t s th a t h a d been made by the ablest mechanics in the world for 2,000 years. . For a long time after this immortal invention was publicly l yroduced, a host of bullying novices insulted society by pre dating that it would prove limited and frail, who are now F ountain a b out t h at t h e i r tra d e wou ld b e ru i ne d, b ecause "'Contain Pumps prove 300 per cent the most durable, whe ther used by the power of man, horse, or steam, and they are " economical and invariable in their action, that they corn 46nlY perform for maltsters, brewers, and dyers for years with ' out the least expense or the slightest variation. Also, so re darkably simple, that smiths, millwrights, wheelwrights, car penters, &c., as well as hydraulic engineers, successfully en '*take their fixing and reparation , neither are Fountain *romps retarded, choked, nor injured by occasionally delivering few tons of sand, although a very little of that material soon deranges and seriously damages the best Friction Pumps. Slowly %teed, the art of raising water approached perfection 4,000 !core ago. The beautiful Miss Rebecca brought up water from 14 11 in a pitcher upon her shoulder for her sweetheart's creels. .ftitute they appeared the four principles, namely, two limited, 4 ; l ' two unlimited principles--two of them sliding principles, 7 a spiral principle, and one a rolling principle. Pl ..... The Chain-pump is action i s direct and s imple ; but by •rleticea and leakage very defective and dreadfully_uncertain, • and from its numerous parts highly complicated. The Chain pump is a combination of Inefficient expensive lumber—a limited sliding principle. ' 2d. Archimedes' Screw-pump is founded upon a brilliant' 'Act; but its applicability is very confined—a limited .spital 3d., Tesibies Pipe and Poker Pump, or the Athenian Squirt. pumps, is the root and principle of all Piston and Cylinder nrnps,under ev cry name and modification. All Pumps upon 41 4 plan are of necessity bad beyond remedy, and stupid indeed ?lost they be echo expect the contrary, because mostly above lefo-fifths of the labour employed is entirely waste',l by their _o'lction and leakage, and when accurately tested against the prineip)e, always prove to be but contemptible machines. Cocertheless these imperfect Pumps stood vairivalled for the -14 2 ,000 years—an unlimited sliding principle. 4th, and j last, Shalder's Pump appeared and made laughing ekt of the other three Pumps, and exalted the art of raising liter to a sc i ence . Th e F oun t a i n Purnp is neither more nor ! 1 % than the Pump made absolute, because without any dis wierable defect or imperfection, it p'issesses every essential Property for the purpose intended in Vac highest degree. AN UNLIMITED ROLLING PRINCIPLE. tirkbeck. President of thedMechanics' Institution, Lon ra, says the Fountain Pump is free from the liabilities and "le,feets of the common Friction Pump, and approaches a perfect alydraulic Machine. The Vice-President, , Professor John Millington, Esq., .L. S., published a w oek in 1830, and therein makes a rash, feui, and silly r..ssertion, that the new principle is limited, d although, fr om , i ts di m i n i s h e d f r i ct i on i t h as it s a d van t ages tillme cases, it canno t b e use d f or great elevations. Never , ess, Fountain Pumps prove equally durable for lifts above as ti e law one hundred feet. Millington might surely have known at flexibility was nopreof of frailty, nor rigidity of durability. The rigid teeth of mama-a and her four sisters were mostly Stine, but th e i r fl ex ibl e t ongues rema i ne d in full activity when d e ir ages, unit e d With th e i r on l y b ro ther, exceeded five hun dred ears. And th e C onnec t ors or (flexible Cones) in Foun -2- Vumps prove also not only surpassing durable, but almost '4'4lo.m:table. CASES SUFFICIENT. Thirty Fountain Pumps, that cost above LOON., have not cost Per yea r f or a ll the connectors, though twenty-four of them, "In fifteen t• one hu n d re d f ee t long, are used to water the Publics roads from Wymandham to Aylsham, and at Yarmouth. Treble-acting Fountain Pump at Disc brewery (horse rder) the connectors lasted fi ve y e ars, lift one hundred feet. 1 , 4 . 13 . It is the packing th a t scra p es u p th e water in the old 'he that wears nut. And it i s th e con nector that rolls up 'we water in the New Pump that wears out. Mark the next two cases, both Pumps having done the same Work. Norwich Singl e - ac ti ng F oun t a i n Pu rr's at Messrs. Horton's, dyers, (manual power). here the connectors of the New iMP l ittst four times as long as did the parking of the old Tr? it superseded. Double-acting Fountain Pump at Messrs. Stark's. dyers, 4 ',.._.erwich ( s t eam power ). Here also the packing of their old Treble-aoting Pump (superseded) used to last about three months, new the connectors of their new pump last above six teen months. This noble machine has not cost Ss. a year for Connectors, though constantly at work, and delivers eight im trjai barna. of water per minute, PRACTICALLY PROV ING THAT IN SKILFUL HNDS THE NEW PRIN CIPLE IS DECIDEDLY THE MOST DURABLE. The Seven Road Fountain Pumps, fixed early in 1838, be tween Norwich and Aylsham, have not cost a shilling, nor varied in effect. The Ten Friction Pumps (alias pumplin g s) mixed with Them, have often been repaired, and the other day not one of them would answer the helm—so much for comparatire frailty. EFFECT. At the many fair trials made by man, horse, and steam !owe*, the rolling principle beat the sliding principle, upon an average, nearly eighty per cent., in raising water, 10, '2O, 30, sand 70 feet high, and volumes of testimonials, by land and lea, certify similar results. But, whereas there are still many novices striving hard to rrpetuate ignorance and the Athenian spurious Pomp in pre rence to the New English genuine Pump and common sense, Iftetending that they can make miraculous frictim Pumps with- Ott friction, Therefore, let no at ince come to deeds to try the vies "sn, and shame the fool who first cries " Hold. enough.' CONDITIONS OF PROPOSED TRIALS AGAINST TIME. New four Pumps of the Old Plan , an d f our Pum p s of the ~7evr Plan, with mechanical parts alik e, and so ad j usted that a of ordinary strength may exert his full force, and raise with out stopping nine imperial barrels of water five feet high, three / 2, lkt rels fifteen feet, one barrel fifty feet, and nine imperial gallons "` Water 200 feet high, or over the London Monument. The number of seconds required with one pump less than With the other, will be its gain in time and labour. The competitors should find the pumps and the public the L'Pess in order to prove that engineers of the old school knew "'" much about raising water as sucking monkeys. • Well, after all the stupid, lying, and even destructive oppo- Foun tain (Newmarket to wit), the graduated scale of the Foun 4. Pump is practically. and successfully carried out from the d elivering of a single pint of water per stroke to the deliverin g . ' 16 ,000 imperial gallons of water per minute. And now to congratulate all nations upon the complete sue _toss ef an i nven ti on of b oun dl ess a n d undying utility, which nature bars surpassing, is highly gratifyine.

The Directors beg to refer the Public to the following ex tracts, which prove that the proposed Colony possesses in cli mate, soil, and locality for trade, all that can insure comfort and prosperity to the emigrant : " Every variety of ranimal and vegetable nature for use or beauty,' or food er luxury, has been most liberally bestowed on this country. It is everywhere plentifully watered; and the soil is almost every where fertile in a very uncommon degree, and capable of producing in the utmost perfection whatever is produced between the tropics. The cotton bush, the cocoa, or chocolate nut, and venelloes flourish spontaneously all over the country. Indigo, too, is a native, and appears to be of the same sort with that of the neighbouring prov►nce of Gautimal, which is accounted the best of any. '1 he sugar-cane arrives here to as great perfection as in any of the islands ; and the quantity of mahogany and sarsaparilla annually exported from hence to Great Britain, renders the settlement already an ob ject of no small importance in the scale of her commerce and navigation. The rivers and coasts abound with excellentfish ; and the finest turtle, both for food and shell, is found here in greater plenty than in any part of the known world. To which it may be added—and it is a circumstance of no Mall utility in an in fant settlement, that the mouths of many of the principal rivers produce a prodigious quantity of oysters, both of the mangrove and flat species ; of the latter sort there are banks that appear inexhaustible : so that with respect to food, the in habitants of this country seem almost to be exempted from the curse entailed upon our first parents."—Edward's History of the West Indies. Vol. V. _ . . Captain Speer, an .old West India Trader, after giving a similar description of the country, says, " this is a small sketch of one of the finest and healthiest tracts of country in the world. It hath been in the possession of his Britannic Majesty's subjects upwards of ono hundred and thirty years ; and is the only retreat for our people cutting Legwood in the Bay of Honduras. If encouraged it will be a valuable settle ment, and not liable to the ill consequences which change of climates have upon the European constitutions. The reason for which may, in a great degree, be attributed, first, to the wholesome effect of the turtle and fish, and, secondly, to the temperature of the air, though so far to the southward, as the latitude from 16 to 10 N., but be the cause what it may, ex perience attests that men usually live to a greater age than in Europe. "—West India Pilot. Captain Wright, senior officer of his Majesty's naval force at Honduras, in a dispatch addressed in the year 1808 to Lord Castlereagh, then Colonial Secretary, uses the following forci ble language in reference to this country :—" Any description I can give will fall very far short of the actual fact, either as to the produce of the country, or the disposition and sincere affec tion of the inhabitants towards the British nation. No coun try enjoys more advantages from water carriage; for, besides nineteen rivers, which are navigable for small craft up to the very interior, a chain of lagoons line the coast, accessible at the mouths of different rivers. The climate is mild for these lati tudes, and, being continental, not near so hot as the islands of the same parallel. "I have in the comae of the preceding narrative endea voured to describe such of the valuable productions of the country as came under my notice; and I now repeat, that in exhaustible supplies of cedar, mahogany, sante maria, rosevr.lod, and many other exceedingly valuable timbers may be obtained on the coast, and on the banks of all the rivers in the interior. Dyewoods, gums, drugs, and medicinal plants of various de scriptions, are plentifully dispersed all over the country. The Savannahs rear considerable n-mbers of cattle; and if there was a demand for them, innumerable herds could be supported on the plains close to the shore, as well as in the interior. Past experience confirms the assertion that the soil is well adapted to the cultivation of sugar, coffee, cotton, tobacco, ind:go, and all the other productions of a tropical climate ; and I have no doubt that a sufficient quantity of rice and Indian corn might be produced, to supply the whole of our possessions in the West Indies with these necessaries."—W. 0. ROBERTS, many years a resident Trader in the Country, pub lished in ItI2J. " Scale careful observers affirm that a quiet possession in the Mosquito country, would ono day be more valuable to Great Britain than all the islands which that nation now possesses in the West Indies."—Abbe RATNAL.

THE ROYAL YORK HOTEL, ABOVE BAR, SOUTHAMPTON. GEORGE QUICK begs respectfully to announce to his Friends and the Public, that in consequence of the retirement of his respected neighbour, Mr. John White, from busi ness, her Majesty's Master of the Horse, the Earl of Albe marle, has been pleased to appoint him to the honourable office of Postmaster to the Queen. George Quick, impressed with feelings of dutiful and loyal gratitude for the honour thus graciously conferred upon him. will henceforward announce his old and well-known establish ment as THE ROYAL YORK HOTEL, instead t,f the " York Hotel," as heretfore. The extensive patronage bestowed on this House by the No. bility, Gentry, and Commercial Interests of England, strength ened and enhanced by his generous brother-townsmen, calls for the Proprietor's warmest and most sincere thanks. His gratitude will be best evinced to the Public by an increased attention to their comforts, combined with that just and whole some economy which the spirit of the day demands. To those who have not yet visited Southampton, it may be proper to say that the Royal York Hotel is situated in the most respectable, airy, and salubrious part of the town. Every hour of the day there are Coaches or other conveniences to all parts of the Kingdom. Vehicles, with one or two horses, are also ready at a moment's notice, to convey the delighted wanderer through the varied beauties which environ the Southampton Water, or into the more magnificent glories of the Forest. For health, relaxation, or pleasure, there is every auxiliary that modern taste and modern enterprize can suggest. The Stabling and Coach-houses of the Royal York Hotel are built with modern improvements, and are in every way cal culated to insure the approbation of the public. *„* An elegant Omnibus, built by Richardson, the Paten tee, runs to and from the Royal "York on the departure and arrival of every Train.

The Work which is now resented to the public is the result of very extended experience in a class of disease e and affec tions, which for some unaccountable reason have been either altogether overlooked, or treated with apathy, and almost in difference, by the ordinary practitioner. To enter into the details of these affections, to point out their causes, and to mark the terrific consequences, social, moral, and physical, which are sure to follow from indulgence, in certain habit, which delicacy forbids us to name, would be entirely out of place in an advertisement. We have no hesitation, however, in saying that there is no member of society, by whom the book will not be found interesting, whether we consider such person to hold ►he relation of a PARENT, a PRECEPTOR, or a CLERGYMAN. The PARENT, who beholds his beloved child pining away, and fast approaching to a premature grave, in consequence of some disease, which for want of a careful investigation of its real cause, has been set down to the score of consumption, will, on perusing this work be astonished to find that in Mae tenths of the cases of young persons of both sexes, who perish of what is called pulmonary consumption, heart disease, tabes, &c., the sole and exclusive origin has been the indulgence in certain destructive habits, practised by youth much more fre quently than is at all suspected. The PRECEPTOR, also, who holds temporarily, at least the relation and iesponsibility of a parent, will, by perusing this work, be directed, and very much assisted in investigating and detecting the too often concealed practices so often introduced into schools, whereby the health and ultimately the lives of his pupils are sure to be compromised, unless the evil be checked in proper time. He will here find a clue to guide him through the intricate mazes of this moral labyrinth, and a standard whereby to judge, when delicacy of health should appear to attack any of his young charges, what the real cause of such attack may be, and thus he will be enabled to check the evil in its incipient state. The CLERGYMAN, in whose sacred character, is at once concentrated the twofold relation of parent and instructor, will here be directed as to the nature of those habits, to rchich youth is addicted; he will also be enabled to point cut the disastrous consequences which are sure to follow from them, if not relinquished. The book will also be found to contain much valuable infor mation peculiarly interesting to those members of society wh o , from having indulged to excess in youth, find themselves un able to discharge those duties and functions which devolve en them in the ordinary course of life.

THOMAS PEREGRINE COURTNEY, in the Chair. The following Resolutions were unanimously adopted— First—That th►s Meeting have great pleasure in receiving and adopting the Report which has now been read, and they present their warmest thanks to the Committee for the con stant attention they have manifested to the interest of the Joint-Stock Banks. Second—That the present mode of conducting the circula tion of the country by means of numerous issuers, controlled by an effective system of local exchanges, is well adapted to the l i state of the community, and powerfully promotes the agricul. ture, trade, mining, and general industry of the nation ; and that equal advantages could not be obtained by one bank of issue. Third—That the Standing Committee of Deputies appointed at the General Meeting on the 23d of November, 1838, be con tinued, with power, from time to time, to add to their num bers, and that such Committee do use every exertion to obtain those amendments in the law which were enumerated in a letter of the Committee addressed to Lord Melbourne, on the 30th of January, 1839, and such other amendments as may be conducive to the interests of Joint-Stock Banks. Fourth—That this meeting approve of the nomination of Mr. Stuckey and Mr. Gilbart, to be examined as witnesses by the Parliamentary Committee on behalf of the Joint-Stock Banks ; and they request the Committee to exercise their own judgment and discretion in selecting such other witnesses as may be necessary. Fifth—That all persons interested in Joint-Stock Banks be requested to communicate to those Members of Parliament with whom they are acquainted the views entertained by this Meeting as to those amendments of the law which are con sidered desirable, and the prejudicial effects that would result from the establishment of one bank of issue throughout the country. Sixth—That copies of these resolutions be sent to Lord Melbourne, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, the President of the Board of Trade, and to the Chairman and Members of the Parliamentary Committee.

TN consequence of the great variety of Counter feit Wrappers of " ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL," now in circulation, and which so nearly resemble the original as frequently to deceive the unwary, the Proprietors, acting under a sense of duty, and regardless of expense in the attain ment of their object, the protection of the public from fraud and imposition, have employed those celebrated Artists, Messrs. Perkins and Bacon, who have succeeded in producing " A NEW LABEL" from steel, of so complicated and intri cate a nature, and of such excessive difficulty of execution, as to amount to an impossibility of imitation, and to be considered by connoisseurs a masterpiece in the art of engraving. The label forms a combination cf beautiful designs, a portion encircling a BUST of her Majesty the " Queen," which sur-. mounts the words, in two lines, ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL, (the ground work is composed of the most elaborate and chaste patterns of laee-work.) Under which are the Signature and Address of the Proprietors in Red, A. ROWLAND and SON, 20. Hatton-garden, London. Counter-signed, ALEX. ROWLAND. The Label is backed by a design so exquisite and minute as to defy competition ; it comprises the words " Rowland's Macassar Oil," written nearly 1,500 times, and containing 20,028 letters. 20, Hatton-garden, London, January 1, 1840.

" The inequalities of life are real things, they can neither be explained away, nor done away ; ' Expellas furca tamen usque recurrent.' A leveller, therefore, has long ago been set down es a ridicaletts acid ellinierleal being, who, if he could iiinish his work to-day, would have to begin it again to-mor ntw. The things that constitute these real inequalities, are four—strength, talent, riches, and rank. The two former would constitute inequalities its the rudest state of nature; the two latter more ptoperly belong to a. state of society more or ess civilized and refined. Perhaps the whole four are all ulti mately resolvable into power. But in the just appreciation of this power, men are too apt to be deceived. Nothing, for in stance, is mere common than to see rank or riches preferred to talent, and yet nothing is more absurd, That talent is of a much higher order of pater than riches, might be proved in various WayS, being so much more in deprivable and indestructi ble, so much more above all accident of change, and all sonfu sent of chance. But the peenliae superiority of talent over riches may be best discovered from hence--1 hat the influence of talent will be the greatest In that government which is the most pure; while the influence of riches will always be the greatest in that government which is most corrupt. So that, from the preponderance of talent, we may always infer the soundness and vigour of the commonwealth ; but from the pre ponderance of riches, its dotage and degeneracy. That talent confers an inequality of a much higher order than rank, would appearfrommanfromvariousviewsmaythethankjustlysubject,and moretalentparticularlythis—Many s rank, biy no man has ever yet been able to return the compli ment, by thanking his rank for his talent. When Leonardo d'a Vinci died, his Sovereign exclaimed, I can make a thou sand lords, but not one Leonardo. Cicero observed to a dege nerate Patrician, lam the first of my family, but you are the last of yours." And since his time, those who value themselves merely on their ancestry, have been compared to potatoes—all that is good of them is under the ground ; perhaps it is but fair that nubility should have descended to them, since they never !to lid have raised themselves to it."

Shall the Bible, with its many acknowledged errors, descend to posterity polluted with all those errors; or shall it be transmitted to the latest generations of mankind, with as much of iAs original purity as it is possible for human sagacity, knowledge, and diligence to elucidate and confirm."—. The San, Monday, November 2,3 d, 1818. The Sun, Septem ber 30th, October 7th, and 28th, 1837. Here was the Sovereign, with the appreciation of Leonardo de Vinci, in the person of the linguist. What kindred feeling have the " thousand lords," who value themselves merely on their ancestry, shown ?—an apathy to exhibit " that all that is goodsof them is under ground i f ' With what truth may the distinguished proprietor of this Paper throw the galling taunt, lam the first df my family—you are the last of yours." He whose columns were the first to maintain the renown of his Prince, and who now associate, with his requiems the utmost endeavours to make a linguist's languor smile upon his bed of death. The recollection of that noble panegyric, in a para graph of " bright intelligence" of Sheridan's, ennobles him. " I give you a slavish and a sycophantic nobility, partial and interested judges, a corrupt and venal House of Commons ; yet, leave me the single . lvantage of a free press, and amidst all evils I will not despair " It has been remarked, as a peculiarity in modern criti cism, that the courtly and loyal make a point of crying up Mr. Young as an actor, and equally running down Mr. Kean ; and it has been conjectured in consequence that Mr. Kean was a Radical. Truly, he is not a radical politician; hut, what is as bad, he is a radical actor, He savours too much of the reality. He is not a meek-tragedian, an automaton player—he is something besides his paraphernalia. He has " that within him which passes show." There is not a par ticle of affinity between h im and the patrons of the court writers. Mr. Young, on the contrary, is every thing—all assumption, and strut and measured pomp, full of self-import ance, void of truth and nature, the mask of the character he takes, a pasteboard figure, a stiff piece of wax-work. He fills the throne of tragedy, not like an upstart or usurper, but as a matter of course, decked out in his plumes of feather and robes of state, stuck into a posture, and reeeating certain words by rote. Mr. Kean has a heart in his bosom, beating with human passions (a thing for the great 'to fear, not to delight in !') He is a living man, and not an artificial one. How should tlo who look to the surface, and never probe deeper, endure him ? He is the antithesi s u, court actor. It is the object there to suppress and varnish over the feelings, not to give way to them. His overt manner must shock them, and be thought a breach of all decorum. They are in dread of his fiery humours, of coming near his Voltaic battery—they choose rather to be roused gently from their self-complacent apathy by the application of metallic tractors. They dare not trust their delicate nerves within the estuary of the passions, but would slumber out their torpid existence in a calm, a dead sea, the air of which extinguishes life and motion."—On the Spirit of Monarchy : The Liberal, No. 2, Byron. llaving associated our cause.

Thus persons of limited means have now on opportunity of securing for themselves a mode of treatment that, whilst it is based on experience, is regulated by the pecu liarities which their own cases and constitutions may require ; thereby freeing themselves from the absurdities and dangers that wait upon the employment of one kind of medicine for all Great Marlborough-street, Regent-street, forms of these diseases, without regard to these essential particulars.

DOVER. EARL DURHAM —lt gives us a great deal of pleasure to bl enabled to state that Earl Durham has decidedly im proved in health within these two days, and that there are now appearances of his speedy recovery from his alarming illness. His Lordship is so far convalescent to-day, that it is expected he will be able to take a drive out to-morrow or next day ; but we understand he will remain at Dover for a week or two, that his health may be thoroughly con firmed. His Lordship's son-in-law, the Hon. Pon sonby, arrived here this morning ; and Drs. Chambers and Seymour, who have been in attendance on his Lordship, have taken their departure for the metropolis. THE MACKEREL FISHERY.—The mackerel boats, on this coast, have been pretty successful within the last few days; and good fish have been selling as low as six for a shilling. THE FIELDS. —Vegetation never in man's remembrance progressed more rapidly than at the present time in this part of the kingdom. The wheat, in particular, wears a strong and healthy appearance. Some of the bean-fields are already in bloom ; and the hops, which are generally very fine, in some gardens actually o'er-top the poles, whilst the pasture lands exhibit a verdant flush of grass.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AND LOSS OF FIVE LIVES. Yesterday morning a destructive fire, attended with the loss of five human lives, occurred in Ivy-lane, Newgate-street. About one o'clock the fire broke out in the premises belonging to Messrs. Price and Pal mer, booksellers, adjoining the extensive premises of Messrs. Vertue and Co., the publishers. Messengers were instantly despatched to the various fire stations, and, in the meanwhile, every exertion was made to arouse the inmates. After a few minutes of painful anxiety a man appeared at the window, who, on learn ing that the place was on fire left it. In a few seconds other persons appeared, and the flames begin ning to ascend with fearful rapidity they dropped from the window on the leaden till, which was about fifteen inches in depth, and from thence into the street, being in a state of nudity. It was at first thought that all the inmates had by some means effected their escape, but in a short time it was discovered that no less than five persons, bad fallen victims. The following are the particulars : The first person who appeared at the window on the alarm being given by the constable, was Mr. Price, who, upon being made aware of the tire, ran back to the bedroom for the purpose of arousing his wife, whom he succeeded in waking, begging her to get up, as the place was on fire, and he went to the front window. He then went and alarmed his apprentices, two young lads about sixteen years of age, both of whom slept on the third floor. Shortly afterwards Mr. Price returned to the window, having a child in his arms, apparently between three and four years of age, with which he effected his escape. This occurred at the back part of the house, which looked into the yard of Mr. Reid's house, but no other person v, - as seen to follow. In the front an equally painful sight took place. In the se cond floor front room resided a ma►; and his wife, of the name of Sinfield, in the employ of Mr. Brown Hay, salesman of Smithfield, residing in the Old Bai ley. While the flames were ascending (which, ac cording to the statement of acting Inspector Wal lace, who was present, enveloped the entire front of the house in the course of five minutes), the parties were to be seen one at each of the windows, the female having a girl in her arms, which she flung out, and the little creb.ture caught by the persons in the street uninjuret2. The man then got out of the window, and having be& sus pended for a few seconds, dropped on the leads over . 13 e shop, and escaped without the slightest injury. His wife also got out of the other window, and hung by ber hands to the upper part of the lower sash for a period of from 10 to 15 minutes. While i n this extraordinary position she drew her feet up and thrust th em through the lower panes of glass, eviden t ly unconscious of what she was doing. By this time a sheet was obtained, and although the flames were rushing out, several men in a most heroic manner held it open, and called out to the female to fall, and at length she fell and fortunately was caught uninjured. By this time it was too evident that several lives were lost, and the firemen and police re doubled their ex ertions to extinguish the fi re. By the direction of Mr. Braidwood, the ruins were instantly examined, whin in the course of an hour they began to ar rive at the bodies, all of which presented a horrible sight. On examining the premises , it was discovered that Mrs. Price had not got out of bed. The sufferers are Mrs. Price, aged 35 years, her three b o y s , age d 2, 10, an d 12, and the apprentice, aged 16 years. The cause of the fire has not been ascertained. An inquest will be held on the bodies in the course of this afternoon. The British Museum will he o en the whole of the week until Saturd a y, on accoun t o f the Whitsun holidays. BLENHEIM, FRIDAY.—The Dowager Duchess of Marlborough arrived here yesterday, on a visit to the Duke and Duchess of Marlborough. The arrival of her Grace was announced by a discharge of cannon, and the bells of Wood stock Church rang a merry peal. It is upwar ds of twent y y ears since the Duchess was at Blenheim. On Tuesda y last the Marquis of Blandford completed his eighteenth year, when the Mayor and Corporation of Woodstock dined together, with a numerous party, in celebration of the happy event. There was also a public dinner. The Noble Duke has been elected a mem ber of the Oxfordshire Agricultural Association. Great im provements are going on here, and the residence of the Duke and Duchess with their amiable family at this princely scat affords considerable satisfaction to the inhabitants of Woodstock and its vicinity. A school is about to be established at Wood stock, for the eiucation of the children 'of the poor, by the Duke and Palm Some articles in this Number are written with much spirit, but, we are sorry to say, not always with the best spirit. There prevail through some of them a violence of political feeling quite inconsistent with the impartial discussion of questions of law, and a sort of rabid hatred of Whigs and Whiggery, which would withhold from the devil his due. Canterbury Brad shaw could not harangue against them more fer vently than does the writer of an article de nouncing them and the Edinburgh Review. " The Whig Reviewer," says the author, " with unabashed effrontery, presumes to charge hatred of Whiggery, which is worse than Whirrs, as lies are worse than the devil, who is the f a th er of them, as a crime on the Conservatives. If a hate of what is sordid, time serving, self-seeking, and utterly degraded ; if to loathe the appalling unmanliness, the stupendous cowardice, that would imperil a crown worn by a female and a child, all for the sake of a party, and of a party bound by no tie save antipathy to the men sworn to uphold the Church and the State, God and the Queen, be a bond of union to the Conservative party, long may it be so ; aye, though as this audacious declaimer would insinuate, it be the only one." In another article on the Registration Bill the writer displays the same pugnacious disposition. The revising barristers are attacked—so is the bar—so are the Judges. " The independence of the bar is mere hollow verbiage, a specious euphonious lie, when it is predicated of the re lations that subsist between the Judges and men who are willing to take the office of revising barristers, and who make a practice of soliciting the Judges for an ap pointment to that office." Nay, like another animal, when in a certain state, the writer goes out of his way to bite others of a different spe cies. He cannot bite the lawyer without snapping at the doctors, who, in respect of their esprit de corps, he says, " are but a sorry set." Barring this frailty, however, the article in question is drawn up with judg ment, and contains some suggestions which deserve the attention of the conductors of this Bill. The copious notes of cases that are heard in all the principal courts of law and equity, will be found serviceable to practi tioners as well as students. FLANDERS AND DUTCH MAIL. GHENT, JUNE 3.—During the month of May, 1839, 93 ships entered the port of Antwerp ; during the month of May, 1840, there arrived 174—difference 81 in favour of this year. The increase in American ships has been from 1 to 11 ; in English, from 1 to 91 ; in Hanoverian, from 9 to 35 ; in Dutch, from 0 to 12. All our brother Journalists eagerly repeat this good news, which proves the pleasure they take in the im provement of our commerce. But we beg leave to re mind them that some of them were vehement adversa ries of the treaty of April ; and there could have been no such ,important increase in the number of ship s if their opposition had triumphed. BRUSSELS, JUNE s.—The Chamber lris continued to-day the debate on the loan of ninety millions. Seve ral Members of the Chamber of Representatives h ave argued a motion which they have laid on the table of the Chamber, proposing to authorise a search for an d seizure in the interior of the country of goods fraud lently introduced into the country. THE HAGUE, JUNE 30.—The Second Chamber met this morning, and the whole of the fifty-five members were present. The debate on the alterations in th e fundamental law, was continued, and particularly in th e project of law. Forty-one members voted for, and fourteen against it. The President said—" By article 232 of the fundamental law, it is declared that all pro posals for changes are to be approved by three-fourths of the members, now, as forty-ene are not three-fourths of fifty-five, 1 think his Majesty must be requested, with thanks for his readiness to promote the interest o the country, to take this matter into further considers ation. Messrs. Lusac and Schemmelpenninek declared against the opinion of the President. Messrs. Corts and Van de Poli for it. A great many members desired the question on the President's opinion to be put ; on which the President said—" As there is a difference of opinion respecting article 232, and I myself agree that there are good rea sons for this difference, I make no objection to its being decided by a majority of votes, with the under standing that the votes against my opinion are to be con sidered as given for sending the project of law in the usual manner to the First Chamber. Forty members voted against, and nine for the motion, so that the project was sent to the First Chamber. In the evening sitting the debate was continued, and several clauses of the Bill were agreed to. THE HAGUE, JUNE 4.—The debate was continued on the project. No. '2 on the Civil List was agreed to , after some debate, by 47 to 8. M. Laybon, who had made some objections, declaring himself perfectly satis fled by the explanation given by the Minister of Justice, Nos. 3, 4,5, and 6 were agreed to. The debate on No. 7 was adjourned to seven in the evening, in opposition to several Members who had de clared that they were quite fatigued with the long debate. In the evening sitting the debate on Law 7, rela tive to the defence of the kingdom, was continued, and after some debate it was agreed to by 36 to 16 votes, 'The order of the day was the debate on the Pro ject of Law on the responsibility of Ministers, which was unanimously agreed to. THE HAGUE, JUNE s.—The Central Section having made its report on the Project of Law for abolishing the Syndicate law on Monday, the debate took place to-day ; after some objections, which were replied to by the Mi nister of Finance, it was agreed to by 41 to 11. BERLIN, MAY 28.—We now learn for certain that the Emperor of Russia does not intend to come from Warsaw to Berlin. The Emperor and Empress, we learn from Warsavr, were to arrive yesterday (the 27th) at Grajew, on the frontiers of Poland and Prussia. At Warsaw the Emperor will have a gland review of the troops, but the Empress will make a very short stay. The day of her Majesty's arrival at Berlin is uncertain. BERLIN, JUNE 2.—His Imperial Highness, the Grand Duke Alexander, has arrived here from Darm stadt, and taken up his residence in the Royal Palace. BERLIN, JUNE 23.—The Grand Duchess of Meck lenburg Schwerin and her daughter have arrived at the Royal Palace. The Prussian State Gazette gives a very long ac count of the ceremony of laying the first stone of tin.- monument in honour of Frederick the Great. TURKISH FRONTIER, MAY 22.—Prince Michael o Servia is already gone from Belgrade to Kragugewatz, and was received with great joy in all the places through e-hich he passed. This event may be considered as de cidedly favourable to the new movement. The return to power of the counsellors, ministers, and senators who have 2 csigned is quite out of the question, as not one of them would venture a league into the interior of the eountu without risking his life ; and even Belgrade and Turkish protection may, in future, not afford them entire security. It is said that some of them in tend to go to Austria, othe7s to Russia. The Rus sian Consul has accompanied the Prince : he will take care that the Organic Statute remains in force, which both the Porte and Russia seem resolved to maintain ; and this is very desirable, that the Servian nation, in the intoxication of triumph, may not pass the bounds of moderation. Whether the wish of the country for the return of Prince Milosch will be fulfilled, is doubtful, as there are great objections to it on the part of both Russia and the Porte ; and a breach with these two powers w:11 hnrdly be thought advisable. Meantime the cry for the return of Milosch becomes more and more general. The people demand an account of the reasons of his expulsion, which took place without the assent of the country ; and briog fresh complaints against those who have resigned. John Obrenowitsch, the brother of Miloseh, is gone to the district of Isehatschak where he formerly corn ' mended, and, as we hear, has been received with great j o y by the people.—Allgemeine Zeitung, Jun e 2. MUNICH, MAY 3 . 1 —His Highness, th e H ere di tary Grand Duke of Hesse Darmstadt arriv ed here yester. e vening, and his sister. the Princess Mary, day bride of the Crown Prince of Russia, this morning. The Princess comes to visit her only surviving aunt, the Queen Dowager (Caroline) of Bavaria, and the Du chess of Leuchtenberg at Munich and Jegernsee. DUTCH FUNDS.—ANSTEanaa, JUNE 5. .

But:we were mistaken.
