Messrs. S. and B. SOLONIONS, Opticians and Aurists, during a professional experience of thirty years, have had ample op: ortu r'llies of verifying that the Organs of &gilt and hearing are sym pathetically related to each other in such a peculiar manner, that when the former becomes imperfect, the sense of hearing becomes r apidly dull—this fact is admitted by Scientific Authorities, and m ist be observ a ble by many thousands of individuals thus circum. !. I , ',lleed_which is deserving the Public's most serious attent io n. T he Messrs. Solomons, with a view to remedy such an affection, and af ter they have devoted their whole lives to this interesting branch .f . science, have succeeded in effecting, for Imperfect Vision, a most ie.entific improvement in a Transparency for Spectacles, and a Pre !titive and Cure for Deafness ; they have invented an Operative Voice Conductor, upon a very small construction, not perceptible ; it !Nuires no holding, and the individual immediately becomes one of r e party in the general conversation. By these important disco 'eries not only is defective Vision brought to nature, but the sense Of Hearing is restored to its original acuteness ; those lenses are so ecnstructed and adapted to weak and imperfect eyesight, upon such sci entific principles, combined with the long extensive experience of the Messr s . S o l om ons, that they will be found to effect an e xtent of reli e f which will far exceed their utmost and most san .9ine expectations. On placing those lenses before imperfect Vision, either by day or candle light, every object becomes clear and dis tinct, and th e mos t m i nu t e particle seen with exact distinctness. t,'le Messrs. Sol omo ns have in their possession, WITHOUT ONE E XCEPTION, Spectacles and Ear Instruments of every kind, which are offered to the Public by other individuals, to paint out the su periority of their improvements over all others. Th e patronage of N obility and Gentry, and recnmmendationsof the principal Oculists, _t e iysicians, and Surgeons in London, and through Great Britain, as w II as on the Continent, would be too numerous for insertion. ihe Messrs. Solomons are anxious that the public should not con round them with persons of the same name, it being admitted by Professional gentlemen of the highest character, and may be ob served by any individual, that their newly-invented Spectacles ani operative Voice Conductors for deafness, surpass anything of the xind yet put beforetbe public, they request attention to the first part of heir names and address, 39, Al'vmarle-street, Piccadilly.

The effect of the principle of Mutual Assur ance, so carried out, is shown by the abatement of FORTY per Cent. declared for the ensuing year, upon the Premiums of Members of Five Years' standing, and which abatement has been computed on data justifying the expectation of the conti nuance of an equal rate of abatement, at least, throughout th a remaining term of life.

[ADVERTISEMENT.] TO MR. JAMES TRIMI3EY, 39, QUEEN-STREET, LONDON. Sir,—l have observed with much surprise, an advertisement in the London papers with your signature attached, in which the public are info! mod of my having quitted your service, and are at the same tSme cautioned against paying any moneys to me on y our accoun t. A s I canno t b u t f ee l th a t suc h an adver tisement is calculated to injure me in public estim a ti on as a Commercial Commission Traveller, by inducing the belief that I had improperly sought to receive your moneys, I am bound in justice to my character and to the claims of a wife and nu merous family publicly to vindicate myself against such a sup position. Having for some years travelled for you by commission, and having in the course of that period established a first-rate connexion, it grieved me much that the limited extent to whieh the orders of my numerous customers were executed beca me so unsatisfactory as to compel me in September last to give intimation of my intention to tender my resigna tion at the termination of my next journey, nevertheless subject, ai per written agreement, to the three months from the specific Period of its being tender ed, unless the terms of my engagement could be altered from a commission of 7i per cent. on the pay ments to that of 5 per cent. on all orders taken, and then a 2fr ea the payments, by which means I hoped to secure the due execution of my orders, and at the same time advance your interest as well as my own. I certainly did not in tend eply notice to expire at the time you construed it. On 9th of October I paid the balance of my journey account t,.•.1 left town that day for my then next journey, and from this nate to the 13th of January, I made no arrangements for future engagement, nor did I in one instance hint to any customer any expectation of leaving, as I concluded the difference might be settled agreeably to both parties when I got home. On the loth of December I got back to London, and on the 26th called upon you in my usual way, gave in my ledger, and inquired also if my patterns had arrived, but finding they had not, I did not regret this circumstance much as I wanted a little rest, having been out from the Ist of July to the : sth of De cember, with only an interval of ten day s . O n t h e 2 8t h of De cember I wa s a t Queen-street, and gave you a letter order,which you executed. On the 3d ofJanuary I went \ ith a written order from you to look out some goods, and upon inquiry found my journey ledger was made up, and on the following day I called in and paid the balance due to you of 18/. 125., but got no receipt, the ledger not being, as you said, at hand. When my patterns did arrive, which was on the Bth of January, I said to you that I should be ready to go off on the following Monday, when I found you had determined not to alter the terms, and that you considered the notice had terminated. I was then compelled to look out, which I did, and in a few days I received a conditional appointment for another house, and im mediately started on my journey. I found that most of my old customers were anxious to continue to do business with me without regard to the principal, whom they had never seen, and of whom, except through me, they knew nothing, announcing through the different towns I passed on to that I did not now represent you, nor did I use any under means to induce them to give their orders to me. I could not help telling them how is; happened, as I had been to many of the same places only fl ee preceding month on other business, and had tcld them then, I should see them at the regular time for you. In consequence of a letter which 1 received from yo,ve at Wakefield on the 27th of January, presupposing I had Preju diced the mind of a customer at Peterborough against you, I immediately wrote you that it was incorrect, for I had, not so much as seen the gentleman. I further said I lame n • Led that the long connection between us should be severed, and that upon so minor a matter ; that I believed it was intech to your interest to resume that con nec ti on , h av i ng turned you over last year, amidst the distra c ti on o f th e t i mes, nearly r many thou sands as you had hundreds out, on the ground I e .ow take, when I first took your business i n h an d ; an d to testif .r my feeling f o r your continued prosperity, I s t a t e d I was rem' or on my part to bury all in oblivion, and if it met your appro l eation by sending down my patterns, accounts, and ledger ',es Huddersfield, I would instantly relinquish the engagement I had entered into, and commence again without further delay eon your account, on the terms I had before proposed, and for my word's sake I would not alter. Knowing as I did that the CO anection was mine, it did strike me to be an offer worthy ye,ur notice. I found also that no one was on the ground before : me representing you, nor had any advice letters been rec e ived. With the impres sion on my mind that the offer we told be accepted by you, I passed on to Pontefract, then toDe fisbury, the last town before I reached Huddersfield, where y' cur answer was to meet me. A customer there said he wante d no goods, and, as he was going on a journey, it would be. better for ire to draw upon him as usual, at two months, d ated the Ist of February, which acceptance was drawn 231. 11 a, Od., in your name, and, as a natural inference, no use rhatever to me. This I did, but with no other object in view than for you to realize a payment, struck also by the thought hat your representative might have been taken ill, and all ste.nding still in the country, as I found (but not by you) he had 'oeen started several days before I ac tually knew I was going, to leave. Another person in the same ?lace, who had several pounds to pay me for another house, for which I also travel, had provided a banker's bill, which more Cevered both accounts. You only wanted 41.53. Od. of that tierson 1 therefore, to take this bill of my friend, I received 6/. B.i. Od. of a third customer. You were then entitled to 10/. 13s. Od. ; minus my commission 71 ,, per cent., and stamp 2s. Id., on 34/. 4s. Od., amounting to 21. 13s. 4d., leaving a balance due to you in cash of the small sum of 71. 19s. 7d. ; and the acceptance and this are all the money I received between London and Huddersfield of yours; and but for the simple fact of my offer from Wakefield, I would not have received one penny. If I do not speak the words of truth, disprove it. When I reached Huddersfield I received a reply to my Wake field letter, written in a friendly way, but that you were not open to a fresh contract, and from that period to now I have en closing the 23/. 11s., g i v i ng you a statement of the t not received one penny. On the Bth i nst. I made up a letter to you, and telling you the circumstances under which these accounts were paid, and that I would pay you the balance, 71. 19 s . 7d., in any way you pleased when I heard from you again. After the many large towns I passed through before I got to Dewsbury, the thousands I have turned over for you, and that to your advantage, for you have never added one clerk more to the counting-house, I feel fully persuaded that in your more deliberate moments you do not entertain the thought that this small sum of 71. 19s. 7d. was received by me but with the intention of being regularly accounted for, as, in fact, it was ; for there must naturally be an open account until I d l my attack firm am paid my commission for my sales up to the time of leaving. do—furnish ,mlethwinikthyoau a c r o e p y bo o u f n t d he ir lette7 I That the long standing connexion between us has ceased is not attributable to me , gnmt l o s e rs e ia t ty September, and the I lth of October. ) c .o o ti nv h ic a t v i e on: this, how on candour nade on me, and that when I was 200 miles off, and ever, you can u; ' lst ail events, waiting for an explanation.

The actual sum you can soon know by reference ,to your ledger. Had I continued to collect your accounts, my due would have been 3001. And now, Sir, after the attack you have made, without even writing me on the subject, you ought, as one act of reparation, to pay me my commis sion in full on the amount outstanding, without delay or deduc tion for collecting, and:to send me a check down, after taking off the 71. 19s. 7d. received by me at Dewsbury, errors, if any, and any claims you have upon me. Do this, furnish me with a copy of my letters dated September 24, October 11, and February 8, and let me have my journey ledger signed, in con formity with the balance you claimed and I paid on the 4th of January, as I have never had the opportunity of examining its correctness, and then all further connexion between us will entirely cease. At all events I am anxious, after what has Islets place, to have the accounts bet ween us finally balanced, and to effect that I am quite ready to leave any question as to allowance of the 74 commission to be settled by any respectable commercial gentleman, to be agreed upon between us. As it cannot be expected that I should remain here at ex pens. and loss of time to await your answer, I have left the whole matter in the hands of my eolicitor, Mr. Leeman, of this place, to whom you will be good enough to address any commu nication which you may have to make upon the business. I am, Sir, your obedient servant, R. W. WHITFIELD. Lockwood's Hotel, York, Feb. 13, 1840. STRATHBOGIE INTERDICT.--yesterday the Court of Session (first division) pronounced a judgment in this case, passing the note of suspens►on, at the ►nstance of the ma jority of the Presbyterry, who were suspended by the Commis sion of Assembly, on 11th Dec. last, and granting the interdict to the full extent craved by the complainers. The effect of this decision, in which the Lord President and Lords Gillies and M'Kenzie concurred—Lord Fullerton dissenting —will be to supersede entirely the Commission's sentence, and all that has followed upon it. —Edinburgh Chronicle. THE ROYAL HUNT.—Her Majesty and hi• Royal Highness Prince Albert witnessed the hunt in the Great Park on Thursday last, on which day a deer was uncarted ex pressly for the gratification of the distinguished visitors at the Castle. The place of meeting was at the mansion of the noble Master (Lord Kinnaird), at Fern-hill, and, at the appointed hour, Mr. Davis, her Alajesty's huntsman, and whippers-in, were there, with the splendid pack. In a short time after the illustrious party also arrived, consisting of his Royal Highness Prince Albert, on horseback, his father the reigning Duke of Coburg, in a pony phaeton, accompanied by the Duchess of Sutherland, his Serene Highness Prince Ernest of Saxe Co burg, the Earls of Erroll and Uxbridge, Lord Alfred Paget, &c., on horseback, and a party in a carriage, viz., Lord Albe marle, Barons Stockmar, Alvensleben, and Count Kolowrath. All being ready, the party adjourned to the Great Park, where a deer was uncarted, and the distinguished persons on horse back followed in the Chace, with the exception of Prince Al bert, who returned direct to the Castle. On his arrival there, a pony phaeton was in readiness, and her Majesty and the Prince entered it, and drove through the Long Walk into the Park, and, most fortunately, obtained a view of the hunt, the deer, which had showed a good hour's run, being taken near the royal carriage. At the termination of the sport, and by the Queen's command, the noble Master took the hounds close to her Majesty's carriage, to enable her to have a close inspec tion of them, and their beauty excited her highest admiration. Prince Ernest rode, in gallant style, one of the royal hunters. The weather was delightfully fine, and the scene one of the most gratifying description.— Windsor Express.

M DIARY OF A NUN. _L "The Diary of a Nun' is a love story of the most ex citing nature; its scene, that home and birth-place of love— Italy; its persons of that class who have nothing else to do, but love and be loved; and Ps writer of that sex and time of life to which love is as natural and as ne cessary as the air we breathe. This singular and pleas ing work has a threefold claim en the reader ; first, as a romantic narrative of the fatal passion of a youeg and high-born Englishwoman, for the husband of her dearest friend; secondly, on account of the highly pleasing manner in which the truth of a traveller's narrative is blended with the fiction of a graceful yet passionate imagination ; and, thirdly, on account of the many original and characteristic personal descriptions which are presented to us of many of the most celebrated men and women of existing continental society, rendering it altogether one of the most attractive books which have appeared for a long time.—Sun.

At a MEETING of the INHABITANTS of the WARD of DOWGATE, in the City of London, held this day in the Vestry Room of the Church of Allhallows the Great, before the Worshipful JOHN JOHNSON, Esq., Al derman of the said Ward, " for the purpose of considering the propriety of petitioning the House of Commons for the discharge of Mr. Sheriff Evans, and to adopt such proceedings in relation thereto as may be necessary," It was resolved, That this Ward Meeting deeply sympathises with William Evans. Esq., one of the Sheriffs of London and Sheriff of the County of Middlesex, on account of his long-continued impri sonment in the custody of the Sergeant -at Arms of the Honourable House of Commons for an asserted breach of privi lege arising, as this Meeting believes, from the faithful and con scientious discharge of his duty (and which duty he considered he was called upon to exercise pursuant to his oath of office as Sheriff) in obeying a writ issued by or under the authority of her Majesty's Court of Queen's Bench. That this Meeting, independently of the high personal regard it entertains for the character and conduct of Mr. Sheriff Evans, and without presuming to enter upon the question of the validity or expediency of the asserted privilege of the Honourable House of Commons, but feeling that the said privilege so asserted, whether correctly or not, has been sufficiently vindicated, ventures, most respectfully and ear nestly, to hope that the said Honourable House will no longer continue to visit with punishment a merely ministerial officer of the Crown and of the country, for having, as he considered, conscientiously performed his duty. That the deprivation of the personal liberty of the said Sheriff inflicts a serious injury upon the rights of the City of London and county of Middlesex, so far as the execution of his public and legal duties is concerned. That a humble petition, based upon the foregoing resolu tions, be prepared for the signatures of the Alderman, Deputy, Common Council, and Inhabitants of this Ward, addressed to the Honourable House of Commons, praying for the dis charge of Mr. Sheriff Evans from the custody of the Sergeant at-Arms. That Mr. Alderman Thompson, M.P., one of the inhabit ants of this Ward, be respectfully requested to present the said petition to the said Honourable House. That. the best thanks of this meeting are due to our worthy Alderman, John Johnson, Esq., for his able and impartial con duct in the Chair. THOMAS SAUNDERS, Ward Clerk.

AA 119 :if-past one o'clock on Monday morning, policeman 287 alarmed the house, the door of which he found open. Witness upon getting up found that she bad been • plundered of a considerable quantity of clothes, and ol'aer property, which had been taken nut of trunks. )."_ poker was found in the room lying across the chili - , so that she had no doubt that if she had been avvitk', and attempted to prevent the plunder her life would b'.ve been in danger. As there were lodgers in her house she was obliged to leave the door unbolted, and the lodgers entered with latch-keye.. The policeman said that at a quarter past one o'clock, he saw Cleaver passing up Half-Moon -street, with a small bundle, and a person he believed to be Cox, following with a large one. He immediately seized Cleaver, and Cox threw down the large bundle and ran off. Cleaver at once admitted that the whole of the contents were stolen property, that they belonged to Mrs. Blundell, and that Cox was the person who assisted him in the robbery. Cleaver had a nail and a penknife, with certain implement*. in his pocket. Sergeant Fisher stated that he found Cox in his mother's house in bed. The mother said that her boy bad not been out of the house, and had been in bed since ten o'clock. Witness, however, found that Cox's shoes Were quite wet. Cox—My Lord, Ido assure you I never saw this young man before—never in all my days. I know nothing at all about him. The Lotto MAYOR—What do you say Cleaver? Cleaver—Why, my Lord, I say I committed the rot. bery, and that Cox assisted me—that's all. Cox—How can you say such a thing? Cleaver—l say he undertook to assist me upon my pre. mise that he should have half the profits of the robbery. The LORD MAYOR—Do you mean to say that he in stigated you? Cleaver— Oh dear no, I don't mean that by any means. It was my intention to commit the robbery before he knew anything about it ; but he was my accomplice, and no mistake. The LORD MAYOR—Do your friends know what you are? Cleaver—No, my Lord. They are too respectable for me to trouble them on the subject.—Remanded. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. (LLOYD'S.)

THE KING OF PRUSSIA AND THE QUEEN DOWAGER.--(From a Correspondent .) Through th e Übe.. rality of the Prussian Government, the British Resident at Coblentz on the Rhine lately obtained the use of the chapel, in the late Elector's Palace in that town, for the performance al divine service according to the rites of the Church of Englull. An humble petition was a few days since addressed to her Majesty the Queen Dowager Adelaide, praying for a ma* donation towards defraying the expenses of fitting up me said chapels. Scarcoly had her Majesty received the petition, when, with her usual generosity, she was graciously pleased to for, ward, through Earl Howe, the sum of 25/. to Messrs. D hard and Jordan, the trustees of the fund of Coblentz. Such is the alarm caused by the Chartists, that we understand three counties in the north can muster 40;4 10,000 troops on a short notice.
