5..2 I,Z -ft 'Ft ND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY, Two o'CLocK. The Liverpool Cotton Market on Saturday closed very quietly, but prices of all descriptions were fully maintained. The sales were e,timated at 5,000 bales. The railway Share Market closed with a rather brisk appearance at previous rates. The accounts from most of the principal maufac turing towns in the north of England show that trade is still restricted through the dearness of the raw material, the advance in the price of which has caused a proportionate rise in the value of cloth. Buyers consequently act with caution, and during the past week, business in Leeds, Manchester, and Bradford has been less active. For some articles there is a fair demand for India . and the Continent, but the inquiry for home use is rather limited. The lace trade of Not tingham is quiet, but manufacturers are acting prudently, and do not increase their stock at the Present enhanced terms for silk and cotton. From the iron districts of Birmingham the accounts are satisfactory, the demand for America having improved. The general features of the money market remain unaltered, but during the last two or three days the pressure has slightly relaxed. Both in Lombard street and at the Bank the inquiry isStill sofacieutly brisk to prevent a decline in the current terms of (h.count, and although occasional symptoms of relief may be experienced, the mercantile Public seem prepared for a continuance of the existing minimum. Some, however, are Predicting an advance to 6 per cent., owing to the absorption of gold on . Continental account, and the rather unfavourable appearance of the last bank return, with the probability of its successor show ing no improvement. Nearly all the Australian geldreceived d uringithelast fortnight has been sent to prance, partly in payment for silver, and partly for the Bank of France. The 424,0001. brought by the Norfolk is likely to be exported thither, but, if so, the immediate requirements will perhaps be satis ned, and the next receipts may be deposited in the Threadneedle-street vaults. The Australian ad l'iees report favourably upon the Victoria gold fields, and we may calculate upon large and continuous remittances. Last week the imports of the Precious metals were estimated at 1, 218,731/., and the exports at 781,0591. The advices from New York report continued depression in the Stock Market, and it is stated that the stringency of money was affecting trade. The supply of capital had diminished, and thebanks were limiting their discounts. The last City Banks' return showed an increase in the bullion of 986,589 dais., but a diminution of 4,367,551 doll. in the loans and discounts. Tile British Steam Fisheries Company agreed to mind-up at the meeting of this day. The variaticiria in the English Stock Market this kerning has not exceeded 1-16th per cent., and it r emains in almost precisely the same position as on aturday. Business is nearly suspended, and Prices therefore appear heavy ; and, in the event of a few sales, a decline would probably occur. What l ittle speculation there is in progress is chiefly for a fal but unless some disastrous news is received from India, or an adverse change in monetary affairs ensues, it is not imagined that any serious reduction Will take place, as the public are disposed to buy, kila they will soon be in a better position to do so, When the October dividends are paid. Consols are 90 to 901 for money', and 90 for account. Ths transactions in the Foreign Market have not be; ,, n numerous, Turkish 6 per Cent. axe about ; and Three per Ceut. ,guaranteed 99g.

HER MAJESTY'S THEATRE.—The remarkable success Which has avended'the extra performances has induced the director t.) give one more on Satui day next, the 26th inst., for which Piccolomini and Gu:glini era both an nounced. The performances will consist of "La Traviata," the National Anthem, and the last -cene of "Lucia di Lammermoor," by Guigliui,—a combination 0 1 attracti .rx which must ensure an overflowing atteun- ante. Tce " provincial" tour of Her Majesty's Theatre troupe has proved a most triumphant one—according to th e local press hundreds in many insta-ces have been Unable to obtain admission—while the enthusiastic greeting. , of Piccolomini, Ortolani, Spkizia, and Guiglini has far exceeded anything ~f the kind for years past. - Indeed the whole troupe appear to have given the most complete satisfaction. Mr. Roberts, who opens at Drury-lane Theatre this evening, mad his first bow before the people of Rich- Utond, — in Virginia, in 1837, in the character• of Hotspur, the impression produced by which, heightened by his personation of Damon, Jaffier, &c., soon exended to every part of the Union, and produced offers from dif ferent city managers. Mr. Roberts, however, confined himself to the provinces for a time, and when on the 22d 1847, be appeared as Richard 111. at the Na tional, in New York, the effect on the play-going public Was similar only to that produced by I.S.ean's appearance On the Mb of Jan., 1814, on the boards of old Drury. Booth was generous enough to admit that "Sean's mantle bad fallen on Roberts," an opinion in which the .trviving idolisers of the "great little man" concurred. Mr. R berte Ras born at Newcastle, in the state of Dela ware, in 1818. His father, a lawyer of some eminence, Practised at Wilmington, in the same state, and gave his children a liberal education. All the sons are some- What distinguislasd—the Rev. Edmund Roberts, rector of St. Peter's, Peekskill, a: good Grniek scholar ; Dr. llob-rts is a physician in Philadelphia; another at New York, as a chemical professor. James, the tragedian, was, with his father's full pertni.sion, reEnlarly trained f , r the stage, undzr the best procurable tuition. NoRWICH MUSICAL FESTIVAL.—Nosiviou, Sept. 19. --Toe festival terminated on , Friday ignt, or rather Saturday morning, with a grand fancy dress ball, at Sr. A-ndrear's Hall.

The leading country markets held on Sa,turdly were but moderately supplied with wheat, in which very little was doing, on rather lower terms. Barley sold slowly, but oats, beans, and peas were firm. The flour trade was heavy. The French and American markets come lower for both wheat and flour. In the north of Europe, the former article has become rather heavy. Spring corn, however, is firm. Up to our market last week the arrival of English pro duce were only moderate. From abroad we received 13,600 quarters of wheat, 20,021 of barley, 67,027 of oats, 2,167 of beans, 459 of peas, 7,691 of linseed, 4,584 of rape seed, 229 of mustard-seed, 58 of sundry seeds, and 638 sacks of flour. Fresh up, to-day, we received a full average supply of wheat from Essex, Kent, &c., coastwise and by land car riage. The general condition of the samples was good, and some of them sighed 64 lbs. per bushel. As a portion of last week's unsold supply was in the market, and as the a ttendance - of' millers was less numerous, the demand for all kinds of English wheat ruled heavy, at a decline in the quotations realised on Monday last of from 3s. to 4s. per quarter. There was a good show of most kinds of foreign wheat. although the trade ruled heavy, fiine parcels were held at full prices. Inferior kinds were offered on lower terms• The floating cargoes of grain off the coast, the inquiry was rather limited. The show of English barley seas limited, of foreign, extensive. The trade was heavy, compared with this day bennight.l.l. per quarter. Fine malt sold to a fair extent on former terms. Inferior qualities ruled heavy. The show of foreign oats was very extensive ; neverthe less, the oat trade was tolerably firm at full prices. Both beans and peas were in moderate supply and steady request at about last week's currency. We had a dull trade for flour, and country marks were rather cheaper.

This circumstance, coupled with the prospect of a larger root crop, may induce our graziers to withhold from our market a portion of their stock for the present. There was only a mxlerate show of foreign stock in to day's market. The beasts were mostly in poor condition ; but the sheep, some of which realised 3/ each, were of more than average weight. From our own grazing distrists there was a falling off in the arrival of beasts, and their general quality was very middling. Compared with Monday last, there was a decided improvement in the trade, and the primest Scots, Sze., sold readily at an advance of ; quite 2d per 81bs, the top figura being 4s 10d. Other breeds were tolerably firm at extreme rates. The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and Northamptonshire were, 2,300 short horns ; from other parts of England, 350 of various breeds; from Ireland, 500 oxen; and from Scotland, 27 Scots. There was an unusually small supply of sheep in the market for the time of year, and their condition was by no means first rate. The mutton trade was very brisk, at an improvement in the quotations of fully 2d per Blbs. The best Downs produced quito 5c G i l o►L., ....a .. s ooa clearance was effected.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE. (This Day. MANSION-HOUSE. BURGLARY IN THE ClTY.—George Sinclair, 17 years of age, and Alfred Smith, 23, were charged before Alder man Sir R. W. Carden, M.P., with breaking into the warehouse of Mr. R. Penning, wholesale boot and shoe manufacturer, 11, Queen-street, and stealing therefrom a quantity of boots and shoes. It appeared from the evidence of Williem Kempe,a young man in the employ of Mr. Croker, printer, occu pying the third floor of the same premises, that Sinclair was an apprentice of Mr. Croker's, and Smith occasion ally worked for him. On Air. Ceoker'a premises dogs are kept for security, but from their being k .own to the prisoners is probably the cause of their giving no alarm on the prisoners entering the premises. On Saturday night witness double locked the front pas sage door; and on Sunday morning, when he went to feed the dogs, he found the door was only single locked. That excited his suspicions, and he requested his friend who was with bitn to remains at the door, whilst he went up stairs to see if anything was wrong ; in the passage, near the stairs adjoining Mr. Fenning's ground floor warehouse and over lila cellar, he noticed that two boards had been taken up, leaving a space sufficient for a man to enter. He then went beck, locked the door, and asked his friend to go up stairs with him. Ile did so, and as they went up stairs witness pushed the water-closet door open, but no one was there ; he then wentto Mr. Croker's door, which be found had been broken open, and on looking into the cutting machine, he saw a quantity of boots and shoes ; his friend heard a noise in the loft over, and witness called out "George, who's there?" having a suspicion that it was the prisoner Sinclair. No answer was returned, and they went down stairs, witness watching the premises whilst his friend went for policeman. Police-constables 452, 454, and others cane, and they all went up stairs. Witness's friend on going up pushed the water-cleset door, and finding it would not open, he called their attention to it, when one of the policemen burst the door open, and there found the prisoners with a carpet-bag belonging to Smith containing 10 pairs of women's boots, 4 pairs of children's boots, and 3 pairs of children's shoes. Police-constable 464 deposed that after the prisoners were taken into custody, they were searched, and on Sinclair, besides other things, were found, a key that fitted the carpet-bag, and a number of lucifer matches ; at Smith's residence, at Kennington, were found, under the bed, 10 pairs of women's boots and also come men's boots and shoes. Police constable 452 deposed that in Mr. Croker's room were found, packed up, 30 pairs of women's boots, 4 of men's ditto, 4 pairs of children's shoe', 5 pairs of children's boots, and 5 pairs of women's slippers. There were also found a bundle of shirts. On searcbinw Smith, ameng , t other things he found a key of a carpet•ba g and a front-door key, which opened and loc ked ea s il y the pas sege-door of the premises in question. The robbery was effected by entering the cellar from the passage. On a bench near the boots in Mr Croker's room, he found a hammer, pair of pinchers, and a screwdriver. A young man in the employ of Mr. Penning deposed that they had been continually losing goods for the last two years. Ile identified most of the at icles pro duced, and valued them et 101. His employers stock was so large, that it was impossible to detect the loss of so small a quantity. The prisoners, who declined saying anything, were , committed for trial. HORRIBLE MURDER BY AN ITALIAN SEAMAN. This morning the street in front of the Thames Police court, and tl:e avenues leading to it, were crowded with an exciteable multitude who were anxious to catch e glimpse of an Italian seaman named Jose de Romeo, aged 22 years, who it was known would be brought up fey examination on a charge of murdering a Greek sailor named George de Metres, last night, in Neptune-street, Rateliff-highway. The most intense excitement prevailed in that neighbourhood and near the Leman-street station-house last night and this morning. Upward of 4,000 persons were assembled in Wellcloseesquare, near the scene of the murder, and as many mcr' were assembled in Le:Ban-street. Inspector Gernor of the H division, and 30 police-constables were patroling the streets all night to preserve erder. At ten o'clock there was a dense mob assembled near the station-house, and among them were several Greeks, who gave utterance to loud vociferations, and called out "bring out the murderer, we want his life, blood fer blond." A cab was brought to the back of the station house, into which the prisoner was hastily pushed, and Inspector Gernon and two police-constables got in after him. As the cab drove away the yells aed execrations of the mob were perfectly frightful, and several Greeks attempted to. stop the horse and cab, and demanded vengeance. The police drove them away, and the horse and cab proceeded at a furious pace along Leman-street, Alie-etreet, Church lane, Commercial-road, to this court in Arbour-street, East S:epw y, and was followed a considerable distance by the indignant Greeks. Inspector Gernon ordered the driver to proceed at once into the court-yard, between the court and the station-house, and the gates were im mediately closed upon the enubitude, who saluted the murderer with loud execrations. After the disposal of the other night charges, the prisoner was arraigned i. the felon's doe's, before Mr. Yardley, and charged with the wilful murder of George de Matras. It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner and two prostitutes were quarrelling in Neptune-street last night, and the prisoner struck one of them. The deceased, who was standing by, remonstrated with him, on his cowardice and said, " am% strike the girl.' The prisoner said to the deceased " I'll fight you Englir by Italian, or Greet fashion." The deceased replied in broken English, "Me no fight," on which the prisoner took a l large *sheath knife from his pocket and pluuged it into his abdomen. The deceased staggered anti the prisoner followed him up, inflicting blow after blow en the defenceless man who fell to the ground mortally wounded. The bystanders called out " Murder, seize the fellow," and the _prisoner was pursued by a police constable named Charles Gascoyne, 93, 11,‘ who took him and soon had him secured in the station house. The wounded man was immediately taken to big lodging-house, No. 200, Ratcliff highway, where he was immediately attended by Mr. Starkey, a surgeon, of Wellclose-square, and Mr. Graves, an army surgeon, of No. 201, Ratcliff-highway. The deceased in reply to a question of Mr. Gernoe, said he knew the murderer, and described him; and said he lived in the same house. Mr. Gernon sent a policeman to the station-house with directions to bring the prisoner immediately to the house where the deceased was bleed ing to death, in order that he might be enaLled to iden tify the murderer. Before the policeman could return the wounded man expired. Upon an examination it was ascertained that the deceased had received three wounds iu the abdomen, one on the left breast, one or, the left armpit, and another on the back of the shouller. Inspec:or Gc.ro . on produced a large sheath knife of the ordinary description used by sailor?. It was found in the street after the Greek was murdered. The blade of the knife was stained with blood. Mr. Yardley inquiied whether there had been any post mortein, examination of the body. Inspector Geruon replied in the negative. Mr. Yardley said he should remand - the prisoner until Monday next. The body of the deceased is now lying at the lodging house, 200, Rateliff-highway. It was laid out accord ing to the Greek custom this morning, and was visited by a great number of Greek sailors. The prisoner is a person of youthful appearance and fresh complexion, and his appearance is rather prepos sessiniz. MARLBOROUGH-STREET. DARING STREET ROBBERY, WITHVIOLENCE.—Tbomas Nolan and John Arundel, alias Randall, tao notoriou, thieves, were placed at the bar before Mr. }lngham, charged with stealing a gold watch, value 7/., the pro perty of John Murdoch, No. 6, Eccleston-place, Raton square, Pimlico. Mr. Lewis, jun., of Ely-place, appeared for the priso ners. Mr. Robert Bail, landlord of the Harrow Tavern, White Friar-street, Fleet-street, stated that on Saturday night, about half-past ten, he was proceeding down Duke-place, St. Martin's-lane, when bis attention was attracted to the prosecutor, who was leanir b , with his back to the wall, apparently the worse for liquor. He then saw the prisoner Nolan and two other men, one or wnom ne neneveu to ne the prisoner Arundel, go up to the prosecutor, when Nolm knocked him down Directly afterwards the prosecutor (stied out, "I have lost my 1. , The prisoner /s,Tolan then butted the prosecutor with h i s nem, anu ure - W him down again, and while he (prosecutor) was lying on the ground the prisoner passed the watch to one of the other men, who he felt convinced was Arunchl, and they then ran off. Witness rushed forward . and seized hold of Nolan, and with the assistance of another person who subsequently came up detained him till the arrival of a constable ' when he was given into custody. John Murdoch, the prosecutor, deposed that on Saturday night, a little after ten o'clock he was in Duke's-court, with his bands in his pockets, when the prisoner Nolan and two other men came up to him, and before he was aware of it he was knocked down by Nolan, who took his Old watch from his waistcoat pocket. On feeling his watch going. he laid hold of him and called out, " You have stolen my watch," and " police." Nolan then " but'ed " him in the stomach, and doubled him up on the ground. While prosecutor was lying is this defenceless position, he distinct!y saw Nolan hand the watch to one of the other men, who ran off. Prosecutor was slightly in liquor at the time, and could not identify any of the other men. Carnelly, 11 A, was passing down St. Martin's-lane, on Saturday ni lit, when he heard the cries of " police" proceed from Duke's-court. Ile ran to the spot and found the prisoner Nolan in the hands of the first wit ness and another gentleman, who gave the prisoner into custody on the present charge. Sergeant Crocker, 9 C, proved apprehending the pri soner Arundel on Sunday morning, at his lodgings in Dudley-street. Mr. Bingham remanded the prisoners until Saturday next. WESTMINSTER. ,;SAN ABOMINABLE NUISANCE IN A RESPECTABLE NEIGHBOURHOOD. A gentleman waited upon Mr. Paynter this morning, and entreated his assistance under the following circumstances. Applicant said he had to implore him to abate a hor rible rmance, and not only did so on his own be half, but for the respectable neighbours by whom he was surrounded. He was the proprietor of 113, Warwick street, Pimlico, and a short time ago let a suite of apartments in his house to a woman of ladylike appear ance, who represented herself as an rAficer's widow Before she had been there many days, he discovered that she was a most violent person, addicted to habits of intoxication, who, while in that state, continually rushed into the street screaming and shrieking, and col lected hundreds of people, who naturally felt fiat she bad sustained some gross illtreatment. Applicant's servant had been so intimidated by her violence, that she was afraid to approach her. Mr. Paynter—Take a peace summons agair,st her. The 2d Warwick Militia have received orders to be embodied on the 14th of October. The regiment is complete. CRYSTAL PALACE.—The veteran trumpeter Distin gave a farewell benefit at the Crystal Palace on Saturday, when he was ably assisted by Madame Clara Novello, Mr. Charles Braham, the younger Distins, and other favourites—the sax horns certainly telling with greater effect than the voc,dists. The number of visitors was 19,293, of whom 3,198 held season tickets. and therefore were of no benefit to Mr. Distin. Notwithstanding the attendance upon this occasion, we are convinced that Saturday can never be properly made a people's day, and, looking at the excellence of yesterday's programme, we believe, had the benefit been on a Monday, something like double the number of persons would have been pre sent. In trutb, though the Saturday half-holiday may give a little additional time to the City clerks, it cannot affect the majority of the people—the respectable mecha nics, who do not receive their wages until the Saturday evening ; nor the large class of shopkeepers and the r assistant., who depend upon the custom of the working classes, and whose returns on the Saturdays in very many instances far exceed those of the whole of the rest of the week. GLASGOW HARBOUR. —One of the heaviest and most costly works ever undertaken by the Clyde Trust is now approaching c ompletion—the new addition to the South Quay wall. The length of the new wall is nearly one third of a mile, and when it is completed there will be a stretch of quay wall westward from Glasgow-bridge of 2,028 yards, or fully 11 mile of quayage for vessels on tee south side of the hart our. The section of the wall is curvilinear in front and vertical at back, is in thick ness seven fret at top and 16 feet at button), and contains in all about 650,000 cubic feet of masonry and concrete, or about 47,000 tons weight. Same of the stones employed in the wall weigh fully three tons, and the only dressing they receive is from the " pick." It is intended to give a depth of 20 feet at loaf water, so that the largest vessels when laden may lie afloat at all times of the tide, as in the docks of London and Liverpool, and in this respect it forms the most important addition that has yet been made to the harbour. Its cost is about 50,000/ —Seotti , h, Press.

A letter from Madrid gives the following ac count of a ministerial crisis which lately took place there :—" For the last fortnight it has been doubtf„l whether or not the Ministry would be clanged. The Cabinet desired before the meeting of the Cortes, which is announced for the middle of October, to ensure its situation which was menaced by intrigues in the p9.la::e of the Queen, in which it is believed that per: o swho occupy places of confidence ~. __ Nar vaeS insisted on obtaining tine dismissal persons, but failed to do so, as they energetically defended themselves, and were protected by power ful influence. He also demanded the dismissal of General de la Concha,, captain-general of Cuba, and the nomination of General L-rsundi, Minister of Marine, in his place. This also was not granted, and in consequence General Lersundi resigned ; and on the 11th, after a council 'presided over by the Queen, all the Ministers did the same. The _Qua -3r, however, refused to accept their resigna tions. The day after, a now offer of resignation was made, but it also was not accepted. On the 13th the Ministers assembled anew, and they charged M. Pidal, the Min;ster of Foreign Affairs, to inn sent humbly and respectfully to the Queen that the Ministry ftlt itself under the necessity cf persisting iu its demands, in order that it might not have to fear the underhand intrigues of secret enemies, whilst publicly combating in the tribune the adversaries of the government and the enemies of the corisitutional throne, of the Queen, and of her dynasty. M. Pidal was at the same time re quested to insist on the urgent importance of dis missing General de la Concha, and appointing Ge neral Lersundi his successor." LLOYD'S SHIPPING.—(This Day.)

THE SALMON FISHERY IN SCOTLAND.—TIIO Season c l o sed, and the fishing ou the whole is under theha i vo i rage : T i RELIEF OF AILRAH.—It may probably quiet the anxieties of some having relatives or friends at Arrab, and be gratifying to the public generally, to know thatthe heroic little garrison of that place, consisting of only some half-d,ven gentlemen, 46 Sikhs, and 15 European and half-caste sub-officials and persons connected with the railway, after having most gallantry repulsed an attack of 2,000 of the mutineers from Dinapore, with a has of, it is supposed, more than 50 to the enemy, killed and wounded, and with only one wounded on their side, were, after the expedition for their relief from Dinapore had failed, ultimately relieved by a detachmen t under Major Eyre, Bengal Artillery, on the evening o f the 3d of August from Buxar. LITERATURE. The : Squire- of 'Beechwood. A True Tale. - By "Scrutator." 3 vols. Hurst and Blackett, This is an amusing story, and although no very wonderful events occur, the interest is kept up to the last by the ingenious cons'rue ion of the plot, and the pleasing style in which it is related. The chief point of the tad is the long engagement that xisted between Henry Howard- and Mary Mait land. The adventures and misadventures that be fell them, the officiousness of meddling strangers, the injudiciousness of friends, the slanders of enemiee and the fAtal interference of family con nections, all conspired to resider the aequaitstance of these two estimable individuals anything but a happy one. It is sometimes ludicroiy, and sometimes irritating to observe how continually both paitie3 persisted in believing all that was detrimental to the other's character, by whomsoever uttered, even after repeated proofs of the falsity of such asser tions had been met with. In this particuhir the author has well displayed the blindness of jealousy and the inconsistency of pride. Mrs. Selwyn,. the mother of Mara, shows to us a perfect model of a meddling mother, a woman who really loved - her child, and yet was mainly instrumental in causing that child's misery, perhaps, by her very folly wrecking her peace for life, at the moment whoa she would willingly have sacrificed her own exis tence to procure some signal blessings for her dar ling. She was ever on the alert waitinieand watching. It is no wonder that an excitable nature 1 ke Mary's should have hem driven almost to d'strac ion by such demeanour, and it forms so ne part; of her ex cuse for wavering, when it is considered that she was really attached to her mother, and placed re liance on her judgment. This is another part of the harm c , nnmitted by such persons—the very respect in which they are held increases their respensitii litya.s it adds to their influence. - Robert Howard, the cousin of Henry, is:a remarkable contrast ti him in every respect. It would be a satisfaction to the a .)der, when his various plans fail, if in his ruin he did not contrive to involve his cousin. Iu this in , stance ' Henry Howard showed great want of s-nse and indeed of principle ; for a man like him, wish a family dependent on his fortunes, bad no right to risk the welfare of theinnocent to sers.en the guilty from the effects oh their crimes. This mis calls I charity never profits the giver nor the recipi ent, and Henry bitterly rued the hour when be consented to lend his aid to Roberts ruinous affairs. [t is welcome news to hear at last that the path of the upright and generous hero, whose wanderings we had followed from early youth to an advanced ,period of maturity, becomes less thorny and rugged and to know that his latter life will be passed un der the shades of Beechwood, froth . 101611605 e -had been driven by the machination's of crafty. rogues. Sir William Beaumont is a sketch of a u&ile minded man, one of whom there are few, but who is yet natural in his description. For oae rightly to peurtray human natty e, it is but fair to intro duce one like Beaumont into a s:ierie that hiss witnessed the entrance of Robert Howard —to say nothing of his myrmidon Smirk.), who eventually proved too sharp-witted for his employer. Many of the earlier passages of the story are bril lant and gay, from tie frequent recurrence of ball, banquet, and diversified entertainments; amid whose sparkling scenes the hero and heroine played their pasts in the exciting drama before referred to. Fur ther on thesunshineof life is exchanged for its shade, and even for its storms. Through the fitful course on which our eyes have rested, the attention is fixed by the spirit of the narrator. In a decided manner, and with a genial feeling, he has worked out his purpose, and attained to his object, to pre sent to our notice the record of the wee, and weal, the light and shade, the good t nd evil, that mingled in the momentuous career of the Squire of Beech wood. The Story of my Girlhood. By Mrs. Lyileb. Longman. This is a pleasing domestic story, written with taste and feeling. The inciden's are scarcely pro bable, and decidedly romantic, and the characters are certainly not such as are commonly met with in everyday life ; but the plot is novel, the actors in it interesting, and the principles and sentiments inculcated are pure and elevated. The story, in its chief incident bears some resemblance to "Lelia Rookh." The heroine, Annie Falconer, when very young, is persuaded by her mother, who is in declining health, to enter into a secret mar riage with a youth of her acquaintance, in order to be secure from the possibility of a step mother's dominion. This very rash and injudicious proceeding does not produce the anticipated result, fur, owing to a misunderntanding with his youthful bride, Lynn Forester departs, and is not heard of for years. The mother dies, and her place is filled, as she expected, by another, but that other is ono of her daughter's friends, who is of such a good and gentle disposition that the mother's fears are proved groundless. In the mean time the secret, which is known only to herself, becomes a heavy burden to poor Annie, rind is not made made the Tore agreeable by the appearance of a Mr. Warren, who pays her much attention, and her i iliarets" Ifil — Ydrfitlfifir#l4lPih , arranged, by the discovery that Mr. Warren . is at the assumed name of Lynn Forester, who had resolved to win her affections in dis guise. There are several other characters with interest of their own. The chief of these is Ada, the stepmother, whose patience and gentle ness at length meet their reward. Edith Fatconer, the sister of Annie, is also the heroine of some romantic episodes ; and some amusing sketches of neighbours and friends fill up the corners of the,,story very pleasantly. It is apparently an early work, and gives evidence of considerable ability in the department of light and graceful fic tion, deepened by touches of sentiment and pathos. There is also considerable variety in the delinea tion of the characters. It is a welcome contribu tion to the literature of the day, and the authoreas is apparenly one who, with care and experience, will be likely to enrich the field of domestic fiction. history of a Flirt. T. Hodgion, Paternoster Row. The cheap reprint ofanovel of this description, which many of our readers may remember as being very popular a few years since, must doubles salt well. Mete is a considerable amount of wit and smart dialogue in its pages ; and the heroine , a most incorrigible and distinguished disJiple • of the school she is intended to represent, - goes through a long course of unprincipledfolly, to be rather too well rewarded at last ; however, the hook is a fair specimen of the modern novel. Waterton:3 Essays on, Natural History. _Longman and Co. The name of Waterton is well known in this department of literature, and the present volume fully sustains the preceding reputation of its au:hor. Mr. Waterton is fu 1 of anecdote, and gives a va riety of wonderful stories conne7.te I with animals and their habit. We will not undertake to say that our belief is al great as his own relative to some incidents which 119 relates, but making due allowance for the strong colouring of enthusiastic zeal, we have perused the book'wii.la great pleasure. A. STRANGE CLAIM. —Mention — has been made at dif ferent times of a Spanish gentleman named Palet having made a claim on the King of Spain and On his father, Don Francisco de Paula, for a large sum in payment of services which be alleged he had renderecLin bringing about the marriage of the King, formerly the infants Don Francisco de Aisle; with the Qeeen Isabella. Hav ing, in spite of repeated demands, tailed- .. t0 Otain any thing from the King and Prince, M. Palet sometime ago demanded of the captain-generalpf Netv Castillo to receive formal proofs of the justice of his 'demands, which proofs consisted in the production of letters written by the King and his father, or by their order, authorising Palet to exert himself to bring about the Mar riage, and promising to reward him in the event of its being accomplished. But the Auditor at War acting for the captain - ge neral, refused to call on the King or the Prince, as M. Pal' z. required, to depose on oath whether or not the letters in question came from them, but con tented himself by sending a copy of them to the King's priva . e secretary . M. Palet a few days ago appealed to the Superior Military and Naval Tribunal of 4adrid against these acts of the auditor, as cent z d whatan c e oentrary to the Spanish code of proceedings. .
