A song to the suit—the prime new suit-- Which I'm sure will last me long; Here's fame to the Mart which has acted its part In selling a suit so strong. There's style in its make which few partake,' And beauty surpass'd by none; And it plainly shows that the mart for clothes Is the Mart of E. MOSES and SON. Then here's to the suit—the prime new snit— Which stands in its make alone : May it spread the fame of MOSES' name, Already so widely known. In the days of old no dress was sold Like the suit whose praise I sing ; High price was paid in the tailoring trade For a far inferior thing. E. MOSES and SON have nobly done In selling a suit like this — Which has proved to be " just the ticket" for me, Having nothing at all amiss. Then here's to the suit—the prime new suit — Which stands in its make alone; May it spread the fame of MOSES' name, Already so widely known.

This lady had the following letter insertedin the " Times" news paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me. " Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High gate for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months, and the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than I ever was before the baldness appeared. " Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s Regenstor, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase an I Is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund ance, but as a cure ef nervous headache : as a toilet perfume it is far beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any lady of respectability to the above fact::.-3, Swan-street, Borough." In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and l revent it turning grey , rendering the ha i r luxuriant and curly. A few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the hair brilliancy, causing it to curl. ladiessi.Tshteammemstaudeclihcaetrebsand flow e rs )dour removes headache and makes i t a most necessary comp o the toilet.

Many years ago, while the state, of Georgia was still in its infancy, an eccentric creature, named Brown, was one of its circuit judges. He was a man of considerable ability, of inflexible integrity, and much beloved and respected by all the legal profession, but he had one common fault. His social qualities would lead him, de spite his judgment, into frequent excesses. In travel ling the circuit it was his invariable habit, the night before opening the court, to get " comfortably corned," by means of appliances common upon such occasions. If he couldn't succeed while operating upon his own hook, the members of the bar would genes ally turn in and help him. It was in the spring of the year ; taking his w fe—a model of a woman in her way—in the old-fashioned but strong "carry all," that he jour neyed some forty miles, and reached a village where ." court" was to be opened the next day. It was late in the evening of Sunday that he arrived at the place, and took up quarters with a relation of his " better half," by whom the presence of an official dignitary was consi dered a singular honour. After he found many old friends, calk d to the place, like himself, on important professional business, and who were properly glad to meet him. " Gentlemen," said the Judge, " 'tis quite a long time since we have enjoyed a glass together—let us take a drink all round. Of course, Sterritt (addressing the landlord), you have better liquor than you had the last time we were here ; the stuff you had then was not fit to give to a dog." - Sterritt, who had charge of the house, pretended that everything was right, and so they went to work. It is unnecessary to enlarge upon a drinking bout in a country tavern; it will quite answer our purpose to state that somewhere in the region of midnight, the Judge wended his very devious way towards his temporary home. About the time he was leaving, however, some young barristers, fond of "practical jokes," and not much afraid of the bench, transferred all the silver spoons of Sterritt to the_ Judge's coat pocket. It was eight o'clock of Monday morning that the Judge rose; 'MAS'Ing iDthilgails in the proem a: Oblation and abstertion, and partaken of a cheerful and" refreatlng breakfast, he went to his room to prepare himself for the duties of the day. " Well, Polly," said he to his wife, " I feel much better than I expected to feel after that frolic last night." " Ah, Judge," said she, reproach fully, " you are getting too old—you ought to leave off that business." "Ah, Polly, what's the use of talking?" It was at this precise instant of time that the Judge, hav ing put on his overcoat, was proceeding, according to his usual custom, to give his wife a parting kiss, that he happened, in thrusting his hand into his pocket, to lay hold of Sterritt's spoons. He jerked them out. With an expression of horror almost indescribable he exclaimed, "My God ! Polly 1" " What on earth's the matter, Judge ?" " Just look at these spoons ?" " Dear me, where d'ye get them ?" " Get them ? Don't you see the initials on them," extending them towards her, "I stole them." " Stole them, Judge ?" " Yes, stole them." "My dear husband it can't be possible ! from whom ?" " From Sterritt, over there, his name is on them." " Good heavens ! how could it happen ?" " I know very well, Polly ; I was very drunk when I came home, wasn't I." " Why, Judge, you know your old habit when you get among those lawyers." " But was I very drunk ?" " Yes, you were." " Was I remark ably drunk when I got home, Mrs. Brown ?" " Yes, Judge, drunk as a fool, and forty times as stupid." " I thought so," said the Judge, dropping into the chair in extreme despondency. " I knew it would come to that at last. I have always thought that something bad would happen to me—that I should do something very wrong—kill some one in a moment of passion, per haps, but I never imagined that I could be mean enough to be guilty of deliberate larceny." " But there may be some mistake, Judge." "No mistake, Polly. I know very well how it came about. That fellow, Sterritt, keeps the meanest sort of liquor, and always did—liquor mean enough to make a man do any sort of a mean thing. I have always said it was mean enough to make a man steal, and now I have a practical illustration of the fact," and the poor old man burst into tears. "Don't be a child," said his wife, wiping away the tears, " go like a man over to Sterritt, tell him it was a little bit of a frolic—pass it off as a joke—go and open court, and nobody will ever think of it again." A little of the soothing system operated upon the Judge, as such things usually do; his extreme mortification was finally sub dued, and over to Sterritt's he went with a tolerable face. Of course he had but little difficulty in settling with him —for aside from the fact that the Judge's integrity was unquestionable, he had an inkling of the joke that had been played. The judge took his seat in court, hut it was observed that he eras sad and melancholy, and that his mind frequently wandered from the business before him. There was a lack of the sense and intelligence that usually characterised his proceedings. Several days passed away, and the business of the court was drawing towards a close, when one morning a rough looking sort of a customer was arraigned on a charge of stealing. After the clerk had read the indictment to him, he put the question, " Guilty or not guilty?" " Guilty, but drunk," answered the prisoner. "What's that plea?" exclaimed the Judge, who was half dozing on the bench. " Ile pleaded guilty, but says he was drunk," replied the clerk. " What's tho charge against the man?" "He is indicted for grand larceny.' " What's the case?" " May it please your honour," said the pro secuting attorney, " the man is regularly indicted for stealing a large sum from the Columbus Hotel." " How is this, and he pleads —" "He pleads guilty, but drunk." The Judge was not fully aroused. " Guilty, but drunk! that is a most extraordinary plea. Young man, you are certain you were drunk?" " Yes, sir." " Where did you get your liquor?" "At Sterritt's." " D'ye get none anywhere else?" " Not a drop, sir." " You got drunk on his liquor, and afterwards stole his money?" " Yes, sir." •• Mr. Prosecutor," said the Judge, " do me the favour to enter a nolle prosequi in that man's case. That liquor of Sterritt's is mean enough to make a man do anything dirty. I got drunk on it the other day myself, and stole all Sterritt's spoons! Release the prisoner, Mr. Sheriff. I adjourn the court." SIR GEORGE POLLOCK. The following letter and resolutions, relative to one of our distinguished warriors, have been transmitted to Sir Peter Laurie:— " Calcutta, March 8, 1847. - Sir,—Under the instructions of the Committee ap pointed to carry out the intentions of the inhabitants of Calcutta, I have the honour to forward to you a copy of their address unanimously voted to Sir George Pollock, at a public meeting, held at the Town-hall, on the 7th of December, accompanied by a copy of the fourth resolu tion, also passed at that meeting.

"The SECRETARY stated that he had waited upon Sir George Pollock that morning, and suggested the course proposed in the above resolution was likely to be adopted by the committee, and that Sir George requested him, if such a compliment was proposed, to offer his grateful acknowledgments for the honour intended him, and beg the committee to adopt some other less public means of conveying their sentiments and wishes towards him. He said that neither his health nor the state of his spirits would enable him to meet the subscribers as he could desire, nor as his feelings would dictate, on this occasion. "On this explanation being given, an amendment, No. 3, was proposed and carried. " 3. That as the state of Sir George Pollock's health will not permit him to receive the subscribers to the Pol lockmedal and prize, Colonel Forbes, Captain Rogers, and the Honorary Secretary be requested to wait upon him with a copy of these resolutions, and request his co-operation sat ta w ohnl i eid t tto t eo h dn e aotd c uod o r mabtbemolceoi its it t ts e he e ei t i mr n cups E oot.ure n tre g ats l n a oco n fef d bthy Directorseaffp affording bne Pollock r p e r s:p z 4 e e c .

X.—ln this new volume, as in all the previous volumes, we are struck with the very great labour which Miss Strickland has expended in its preparation. It is no compilation from second-hand authorities, but is the result of a careful reference to original manuscripts and other authorities never before consulted for a similar purpose. The present volume continues and concludes the Life of Mary Beatrice, and also contains a Memoir of Mary, daughter of James 11. Both the biographies are written with much care, and are quite as attractive as any of those contained in the preceding volumes. In the career of both these Queens there was much of a very eventful nature, and Miss Strickland has worked up the new materials which she has collected in that fascinating manner which gives so great a charm to the work. The " Lives of the Queens of England" will, when completed, form one of the most valuable biographical works in the English language.—Observer. THE LATE MR. FITZGERALD, MP.--Thi s gentle man, who has just fallen a victim to the epidemic which has lately made such ravages in various districts in Ireland, was descended from a younger branch of the Leinster family, and possessed considerable property, both in the counties of Tipperary and Cork. He was a native of the town of Clon mel, and had but entered his forty-first year. In 1836 he married the Signora Donna Emilia, the daughter of Signor D. Frizoni, of Lisbon. By religion Mr. Fitzgerald was a Roman Catholic; and, in point of politics, he was a disciple of the late Mr. O'Connell. It is rather a curious circumstance that, scarcely more than two days previous to his demise, the deceased gentleman issued an address to the electors of Tipperary, announcing his retirement from Parliamentary life. This is the third vacancy that has been occasioned by death t in he re p r esentation of the county of Tipperary since the general e l ec tion of 1841, Mr. ',Valentine Maher having died in 1843, and the Honourable Otway Cave in the following year. IRON AhD COAL TRADE OF AYRSHIRE.—AII intel ligent correspondent communicates as follows :—ln conse quence of the depression in the iron market, the Ayrshire ironmasters and coalmasiers have resolved to reduce the miners' and colliers' wages from ss. to 4s. per day. This the men are unwilling to accede to, unless the quantity of iron stone and mil which they are required to put out is also reduced. As the masters will not agree to this, many of the men have received their warning, while others are already idle. It is expected that the men will consent to the reduc tion in a few days. Owing to the high price of coals in Ayrshire lately, the shipping trade of Irvine, Troop, and wo nt to is beginning to suffer, as many vessels which were wont to be supplied with coals at these ports, for Ireland, are now procuring them on the Cumberland coast, and in Wales, where the price is more moderate. In the Principality col liers' wages are only 3s. 6d. per day.—Dumfries Courier.

[ADVERTISEDIENT. I—MIRACULOUS RESTORATION OF moan ST HOLLOWAY'S PILLS!! I —Miss Ellen Knight, 36, Stan hope-street, Regent's-park, a young lady of the most delicate consti tution, had been a martyr to suffering for years through overflow of bile and bad digestion, causing pa:pitation of the heart with great d utt e nity of breathing; to walk up the least ascent was impracti cable; the best medical advice had been obtained in London, Bir mingham, France, and other places, but in vein ; nor did she receive any relief until she took a course of Holloway's inestimable pills ; and she is now, by their use, enjoying the blessings of health, that for the previous eighteen years she had been a stranger to.

This was more difficult, however, than the juilg% anticipated. In vain he cleared his voice, and attempted to open his mouth. The adhesive halva had united the upper and lower teeth as fast as if they had been cemented with khoFassan. This was extremely perplexing for the halve was obdurate, and the effendy's teeth were loose.At length, by grasping his beard in his right hand, and tossing back his head, the judge succeeded in liberating his impri soned jaws. But the result was fatal to himself and to the manufacturer of this novel denti-tug. The dilapi dated teeth of the upper jaw had entered into an indissoluble bond of union with those below. In a word, the venerable mollah had not a tooth left in the upper alveoli ; they were firmly embedded in the subjacent glutinous mixture. To clear the court, to mumble a dozen oaths, most uncomplimentary to the halvajee's mother, and to order the culprit - to be dragged before him, with all the goods in his shop, were the affairs of a moment. The order was no , sooner complied with, and the halvajee brought into the presence of the irritated magistrate, than the latter beckoned him forward, and ex claimed, as loud as his sufferings would permit, " Oh, you lawbreaker, how dare you exercise other men's callings without a license? Where is your dentist's permit?" " Allah ! Allah !lam a dealer in sweets! By the soul and grave of Omar Halvajy, exercise no other calling," replied the trembling shop- • man. "You are a liar—a most unblushing liar?" ex claimed the mollah; " do you think the sultan's subjects are to devour dirt, that you may fatten? You exceed ing impostor! You are worse than a Muscoviteunbeliever.- Look! there is your badem halvassy, and there are my. teeth. What does the pezevenk say to that?" "By the effendi's head and beard," replied the other, " the halve . is worthy of paradise. Wai ! wai ! What else can I. say ?" " What blasphemy and perjury is this ?" re— torted the mayor, wincing with pain. " Oh, you bad man ! it is only fit for devils and Persians. How long have you employed glue instead of honey? Allah alone knows how many honest men's jaws have been mutilated through your infamy." Then, directing the culprit's month to be opened, and, finding his teeth also were net 4 over-soundly established in their sockets, the mollah continued, " Now, you purveyor of hes and filth---now we will see what your mixture can effect. Chew some of that almond devilry, I say firmly." Then as the trem bling offender obeyed, he added, " Bite, in Allah's name! Bite ! harder, harder—bite as if your teeth were grind stones and your drug soft paste." There was no resisting these orders, especially as one of the cavass kindly aided the process of mastication, by applying his hand to the halvajee's chin. In a short time, therefore, the worthy Mayor of Stambol had the consolation to see the hal vajee reduced to the same dilemma as himself ; two loose teeth remained imbedded in the composition, which had, in fact, been mixed with some strong glutinous ' substance. Seeing this, the mollah smiled with grim satisfaction. Then, having gazed a while at his fellow , victim, he exclaimed, " There, you unblushing rogue ! You poacher upon other men's trades ! There are the proofs ! We will teach you to act dentist without a license." Then, turning to the cavasses, he added, [ " Let him eat stick—one hundred on the soles of his feet, and let all the satan's filth be cast away."— White's I Three Years in Constantinople. A WEALTHY AND EXTENSIVE FARMER OF WILTSHIRE. Near to the town of Mere, in this county, we were struck at beholding the fine crops, the excellent order the fields appeared to be in, the low neat cut hedges or fences, and the immense quantity of oxen, cows, and sheep grazing in the meadows ; and this led to an inquiry to whom those rich, broad fields belonged. To Sir. H. R. Hoare, the rich banker of Fleet-street, London was the ready reply, whose seat is about three miles from Mere, and seven miles from Wincanton, who himself has the fol lowing seven farms in his own hands :—shirton, Knoyle, Colcat, Hill Grounds, Brenham Lodge, Top Lane, and Search Farm ; altogether containing between three and four thousand acres of land, once so poor and considered so unproductive that every farmer of the old school failed in getting their living from the farms they occu pied; hence Mr. Hoare one after the other was driven to make the best of such land, or suffer it to be still less useful if overrun with weeds. He therefore hired farm bailiffs,purchased horses, and every necessary implement of husbandry ; employed at least 150 labourers, keeping between seventy and eighty horses, giving constant work to woodmen, carpenters, bricklayers, thus more than 200 men through him have constant employment, winter and summer, wet or dry, at good wages; the lowest amount paid to labourers is 12s. per week, some having 21s. at the present time; no reduction in the cold and short days. His cottages are let to his labourers at from 30s. to 40s. per annum, with hrge gardens, right of common or pas turage, enabling some to keep a cow or two, and in the winter fatten two or three pigs. Mr. Hoare himself has as many cows in milk at one time as yields him twice each week fourteen to sixteen dozen pounds of good butter, has seventy calves weaning and fattening at one time, and in the winter at least fifty beasts staled; when fat they are sold generally to beast dealers in the neighbourhood, some of these beasts frequently reaching the enormous weight of from sixty to eighty score pounds each. About one-third only is grazing land, he has never less than 1,000 sheep and 500 ewes for breeding, of the pure South-down breed ; nearly 1,000 acres of this very land was never considered to be worth more than one shilling per acre for rent per annum. When Mr. Hoare had it first in his possession, the occupiers then thinking three to four sacks per acre of wheat a good field, now by cultivation, draining, and manuring, it would let for 30s. an acre. Five hundred acres of wheat grown last year on this very land pro ducing on an average from ten to eleven sacks per acre. This gentleman lets off a large breadth of land to farmers in the neighbourhood, giving every encouragement and assistance to those who will follow in his plans, by lend ing them money, finding drain tiles, and rendering every assistance they may reasonably atk, and even more than they expect ; not raising the rent ig extra management s rs a ev t e the re ; olden some iden s lowte t r o ad msto op in t, du b c u e t t hgorsaen under i n n d g e r long m l t e o a s p e e those not blinded to prejudice soon do well, the self willed and ignorant are soon compelled to leave. A short time ago he discharged one of his stewards who neglected carrying out the plans and orders he had laid down. This worthy gentleman has also a con siderable estate near Towcester, Northamptonshire, known there as Sillingstone Hall, with nearly 1,000 acres of fine land ; this is culti v at e d i n a similar manner, yet more regard is paid here to his hunting, carriage, and riding nags ; this he designates the sporting box, where in the winter he exchanges his scenes of London life into those of the coantry. recruit ing his strength and energies by strong and exciting amusements. Mr. Hoare also has another delightful dwelling and retreat called Burnham Grove, near Mai denhead, four miles from Windsor, and about the same distance from Slough, and twenty-five miles from Lon don, thus this rich man of the metropolis can vary the scene of his life in the spring and chief part of the sum mer visit, his Wiltshire farms, in the autumn and winter get within an easy distance of town to enjoy the plea sures of either shooting or hunting.—Hampshire Ad tiscr. THE NEW LANDING STAGE.—This great conve nience is now open to the public. Its opening was de la) ed in consequence of the communication with the shore being incomplete ; but a connexion having been established, the steamers commenced to use it yes terday, and the public have free access to it. It has already endured a strong in-shore wind ; and while the Dublin and other steamers were making tremen dous plunges in the sea-way, it was difficult to per ceive the slightest motion in the landing -stage. The plan adopted appears to meet much favour from the public. Many strange things are said about it by specta tors; for instance, some think it would make a good cabbage garden; others think it less than the Great Britain; while there are to be found several who say it is as big as the Isle of Man. It would certainly make a good gz.rden, for its area is nearly an acre, and while we have little to support the comparison with the Isle of Man, we may compare it with the Great Britain. —the steamer being 3,4)00 tons, carpenter's measure ment, and the stage 16,000 tons. The boats permitted to use the stage are those which ply to Runcorn, East ham Rock Ferry, and Birkenhead. The Woodside and other boats using the George's Pier will take in passen gers at the broad steps until the permanent bridges are fixed. It is arranged for the convenience of the public, that persons going on the stage shall use the bridge at the north end; while those who come on shore are to use that at the south.—Liverpool Courier. FATAL OCCURRENCE.—On the evening of Monday last, two men, named Clarke and Connor, belonging to Elderslie, near Paisley, agreed to decide a quarrel, by fighting each other in a field a short disace from their houses. When engaged in the fight, Clarke fell, and on his being lifted, it was ascertained that he was dead, his neck having been dislocated. Conner immedi a t e ly absconded, and has not yet been apprehended.—North British Mail. , EXTRAORDINARY OCCURRENCE.—The office of in spector of corn returns for the week ending last Saturday was for once a sinecure, not a bushel of any kind of grain having been returned as sold during the week; a circum stance which we should think is _unprecedented in the an nals of our market.— Worcester Chronicle. ORDINATION OF MR. NEW MAN.—Mr. Newman was ordained subdeacon and deacon at Rome in Whitsun week, and on Trinity Sunday received the priesthood at the hands of Cardinal Fransone in the church of the Propa yo thecurl cult e, but u u w d was Propa ganda. WORTH TRYING.—A Pittsburgh paper states that - w e lth b permitted to lie over a fi eld of potatoes was to o h t o h ll i y s s d e e as st o ro n ) was discovered to have produced a fine crop of potatoes without a single symptom of disease. Let this fact be looked into. —New York Herald. PORTUGUESE PRODUCE..—The arrival of a vessel from Portugal, laden, with one exception, entirely with arti cles of food, is a novelty and a circumstance which was for merly of rare occurrence if it ever took place. Or.e has re centfy arrived, having 481 bags of beaus, 29 barrels of eggs, 117 boxes of onions, 21 barrels and 30 casks of potatoes, and 25 casks of beef, the produce of that country. The vessel alluded to arrived at the port of Liverpool from Lisbon, and the cargo, especially the animal portion of it, possesses several features of interest. PITY THE POOR PRISONERS.—In consequence of the success of the Pentonville Model Prison, the " separate system " is to receive as important extension in West minster.
