LINES BY MR. SCOBLE. WRITTEN ON LEAVING PORTO RICO, VIA TEE UNITED STATES, FOR GREAT BRITAIN. Land of the pirate and the slave, Where every virtue finds a grave, And every vice triumphant reigns, That man in e.ll his vileness, stains; I hate thee ! though thy mountains rise, In solemn grandeur to the skies : I hate thee ! though thy valleys gleam With beauty in the morning beam ; I hate thee ! though thy plains unfold More precious wealth than mines of gold; I hate thee! lovely as thou art, And joy to hear the word, depart ! Land which the tyrant long tenth trod, And dared usurp the throne of God ; Land where the slave no respite knows From toils, and stripes, and bitter woes : Land where the murderer finds a home, And avarice delights to come:— Degraded in thy majesty, Land of the vile, I haste from thee ! Propitious gales! bear me away, Over the bright and bounding sea, To Britain's fair and much loved isles, Where virtue reigns and freedom smiles ! New York Emancipator. S.

CONTEMPORARY PRESS. THE ANTI-CORN-LAW AGITATION. (From the Morning Herald.) The corn-law repealers are busied, at this moment, in preparing for another assault on the corn laws.— These men rejoice in the prospect of an unfavourable harvest—rejoice in the chance ;t the money market may be deranged to a ruinous extant. Scarcity—fa mine itself—would be welcome to these patriotic gen tlemen, providing only the corn laws could be got rid of. The anti-corn-law league—which .would seem to be only another name for the Manchester Chamber of Commerce—has not been idle, during the last six months. The league has hired several lecturers to de claim in all the large towns, and throughout certain ru ral districts, upon the " atrocities of landed monopoly." Cheap publications inculcating free-trade opinions have been sold and given away by tens of thousands. The enemies of native industry are prepared to take the field, in short, with many advantages for the ensuing campaign. In certain respects, however, the case of the anti corn-law party has not been strengthened during the interval that has elapsed since their diiastrous defeat in parliament They have not been able to impart co gency to their reasonings. They have not acquired courage to grapple with the arguments by which they have always hitherto been overthroivn. No. The corn law repeaters are still fain to trust to the miserable arts of misrepresentation to which they have trusted in times past. They are still fain to pass by, without no tice, thosc , economical propositions by which the value of the corn laws to all the industrial arrangements of tngianu nas b u Co44l,li.iia, '21., trade in corn pursue a very simple course—a course, however, not especially creditable to "philosophers," and lovers of truth—as, of course, all free traders must be pre•-umed to be. These ingenuous gentlemen, in make a point of never seeming to be aware of the existence of arguments with which they are unable to cope They continue, on the contrary, to repeat, day by day, and week by week, the stupid and disho nest fallacies on which their miserable system rests — just as if those fallacies had not been, on a thousand occasions. scattered to the winds. In addition to their own feebleness as logicians, and dishonesty as controversialists, there exists another drawback on the free traders' chances of success. All their arts of flattery and of misrepresentation have failed to win the labourers to their side. The labour ers know their tempters—they know the character of the men—they know the objects of the men ; and they are intelligent enough to keep aloof from a system of agitation, which, if successful, would inflict upon the order of labourers at least as much injury as it would upon the orders of landowners and of farmers. THE MONEY MARKET. (From Me Morning Herald of Friday) CITY, TAIURSDAY EVENING.—The monetary and commerciar affairs of this country are so near a crisis, that we cannot wonder at the anxiety exhibited in all the various departments interested in the stability of our commercial and also that of our money markets. Throughout the day rumours of the most gloomy aspect have been circulated, in some of which only we can place reliance. It was at one time confidently re ported that, during the Bank direction sitting to-day, the policy of raising the rate of interest to 7 per cent. per annum, or the. alternative of immediately issuing £1 and £2 notes, under the sanction of the council, was freely discussed ; but we have reason to believe that no positive decision on either question was arrived at. It is, however, confidently stated that the chief object of discussion in the Bank parlour referred to an ap plication from M. Jaudon to the Bank for temporary assistance ! but the result had not transpired at a late hour this afternoon. We have no reason, however, to believe that the result amounted to anything more than the postponement of the final decision of the Bank conclave. These circumstances, coupled with the other rumours, and the statement that a large colonial house has been compelled to throw up their government contract for rum, in consequence of the advanced prices of that spirit and the high rate of dis counts, have thrown a gloom upon every branch of commerce, whilst its influence has extended itself to all our public securities. Thus it appears that our com merce at home and abroad, backed by an unfavourable harvest, holds out no pleasant prospects ; and we are also likely to suffer again for the bolstering up of the United States commercial debtors by the Bank of Eng land in 1837. The Bank were deeply interested in that year, and whilst we admit that the errors of our cur rency system has thrown that rnrporation into a most difficult position, still it can *.ie denied that their support that year to large 4gel.:y houses and their con nections, whilst smaller concerns were allowed to drop to the ground, has been the real cause of the present state of affairs. _ _ In the autumn of 1837 ws pointed out the fallibility of the Bank arrangements with the United States Bank ; our prophecy, we regret to remark, has proved correct, and it is becoming pretty evident that the di rection of the first bank of the first community of the world have been made the tools of Mr. Biddle and his co-agents of the United States Bank. Money is much more in demand for commercial pur poses to-day. The official returns of the exports of bullion - from the 19th to the 25th September are, gold coin 2,000 oz.; bars 3,526 oz.; and silver bars 8,320 oz. (From the Morning Herald of Saturday) CITY, FRIDAY EVENING.—Money has been much more in demand to-day for commercial purposes as well as upon the Stock Exchange ; higher rates of in terest have been submitted to, and it is now evident that the question of discount rates depends very much upon the character of the paper presented. The agitation of the Money Market at present is far from being an unimportant question; in fact, coupled with the future prospects of the country, politically speaking, the welfare of the commercial and agricul tural communities, and the prosperity of a great por tion of our foreign commerce, depend much upon the result of the present crisis. Here we have a proved instance of one foreign na tional, or so presumed national bank, appealing to ano ther presumed national bank for assistance, when both establishments are suffering under a false currency sys tem, and the whole of our monetary interests quite de ranged by the difficulties which an undue preference to a false system of trade has brought about. The for mer necessity of bolstering up the American houses has thrown an onus upon the Bank of England, from which it will not soon release itself; it has created a false and vicious system of trade, the effects of which will undoubtedly be felt in this country, though the ex ample may be eventually a wholesome one. The rumours relating to Mr. Jaudon's application for assistance to the bank have so much varied that we are not dispooed to treat the matter in positive terms. It would appear that the celebrated house of Hope and Co., of Amsterdam, are also of the protesting parties, and that, under the security of the endorsers, the Bank of England had consented to advance to Mr. Jaudon the sum of £300,000 consols, for a month, which time would enable him to meet by the arrival of the Liver pool or Great Western. We have since heard that the securities were not forthcoming, and, again, that the stock had been sold for the account of the endorsers, which is said to be one cause of the heaviness in con sols. We desire only to be explicit; but there is a feeling amongst all the commercial circles that the state of affairs between the Bank of England and that of the United States, had a more open course been taken, would have prevented much idle comment and more anxiety. There has not been any material alteration in the continental exchanges to-day, business has been dull, and on Amsterdam the rates are rather lower. On Paris they are q uoted at 25f 60c a 624 c; on Amster dam 12 31 a ;on Rotterdam 12 31 a 4; on Ant werp 12 31 a 4; on Hamburg 13 101 a 1; and on Frankfort 1501 a 1501. A VENTRILOQUIST AT A PUBLIC MFETING. (From Valentine Vox the Ventriloquist.) Valentine's first grand display, however, in public, was at a meeting convened at Guildhall, for the purpose of electing a fit and proper person to fill the vacancy occasioned by the lamentable death of Mr. Paving Commissioner Cobb. Party feeling on that occasion ran high ; and the ball at the ap pointed hour was crowded to excess by the friends of the candidates, who looked at each other as if the laws only pre vented the perpetration of cannibalism on the spot. As the mayor was about to open the important business of day, with the expression of a lively hope that all parties would have a fair and impartial hearing, Valentine entered the hall, and having by virtue of perseverance, reached the steps of the rostrum from which the electors were to be addressed, prepared at once to commence operations. The first speaker was Mr. Creedale, an extremely thin gen tleman, with an elaborately chisselled nose, who came for ward on the liberal side to nominate Mr. John Stone. ' Gentlemen !' said Mr. Creedale. _ ' Nonsense !' cried Valentine, in an assumed voice, of course, which appeared to proceed from a remote part of the hall. Gentlemen !' repeated Mr. Creedale, with some additional emphasis. ' Pooh, pooh !' exchanged Valentine, changing his tone. It may,' said Mr. Creedale, be nonsense, or it may be' pooh, pooh ! but gentlemen, I address you as gentlemen, and I beg that I may not be interrupted. 0 don ' mind Mr. Tibbs •, go on ! cried Valentine. Oh ! Tibbs ; indeed !' observed Mr. Creedale with a con temptuous curl of the lip. It's Mr. Tibbs, is it ?' ' No, no!' cried the accused individual, who was a highly respectable grocer and remarkable for his quiet and unassu ming dem aanour. I am surprised at Mr. Tibbs,' said Mr. Creedale in con tinuation—' I have until now regarded him as an individual'— ' No, no !' again vociferated Tibbs. It arn't me, I arn't spoken a synnable.' 'lf Mr. Tibbs,' observed the mayor, or any other gen tleman be desirous of addressing the meeting, he will have an opportunity of doing so soon. Upon my honour,' exclaimed Tibbs, I've—' Here there were general cries of ' Order, order, chair! when Mr. Creedale continued : ' Gentlemen, without adverting to any extraneous matter, it gives me unspeakable pleasure to propose'— ' A revolutionist !' growled Valentine in a heavy bass voice. _ _ `That's me, I s'pose !' exultingly cried Tibbs, shaking his head and giving a triumphant wink. I know whose voice that is,' said Mr. Creedale. That's the voice of the Conservative bully. Yes, that's Mr. Brown rigg.' What!' shouted Brownrigg, in a voice of indignant thunder. ' What!' echoed Mr. Creedale. Say it s me again,' shouted Brownrigg; just only so much as say it's me again.' ' Mr. Brownrigg,' observed the mayor, ' will be pleased to conduct himself here with propriety.' ' What do you mean ?' exclaimed Brownrigg. Why fix upon me ?' ' That is not the first time,' observed Mr. Creedale, ' that Mr. Brownrigg has been here with the view of blustering for the Conservatives ; but it won't'— 'As true as life V exclaimed Brownrigg, I never opened my lips. If I did '— Loud cries of ' Order, order ! Question! Chair, chair! drowned the conclusion of the sentence, however interesting it might have been, and Mr. Creedale resumed : As I was about to observe, gentlemen, when disgracefully interrupted, it gives me great pleasure to propose Mr. Stone ' A Dickey!' screamed Valentine, assuming the shrill voice of a female—' Don't have him—he's a dickey !' Here the entire meeting cried ' Shame!' and the candi date rose to repel the insinuation. Officers !' shouted the mayor, instantly turn that de praved woman out!' Hereupon a corps of corporate constables entered with their staves, and rushed to the spot from which the sound appeared to proceed ; but no woman was discoverable. Whoop !' cried Valentine, throwing his voice to another part of the hall ; and the officers rushed to that part with the most praiseworthy precipitation, legally assaulting every elector who stood in their way, but no sooner had they reached the spot proposed than the depraved woman' ap peared to be laughing outright in the very body of the meet ing. Away went the constables, following the sound, and enraged beyond measure at their inability to catch her, when in an instant another Whoop !' was heard to proceed from the spot they had just quitted. Back went the constables, knocking aside every man whom they came near, and thus creating a scene of indescribable confusion. Turn her out !' cried the mayor in loud tones of insulted dignity. Turn her out !' ' Blarm me!' cried the fattest of the constables, foaming with rage, We can't find her !' Again loud laughter was heard, in which at length the entire meetm E , juz—a id.uanie *rum, .ich which the constables kept up the chase. You abandoned creature,' cried the mayor, why don't you leave the hull ?' Let me alone ! let me alone !' cried the creature, ' and I'll be quiet'—and inunedietely a scream was heard, succeeded by sounds indicative of the creature' being just on the point of fainting. The constables fancied that they were sure of her then, and therefore made another rush, but without more success. At length the mayor exclaimed Let her be : leave her to her own conscience ;' when the constables with the greatest reluctance withdrew, and Mr. Creedale then re sumed ?—` A weak invention of the enemy—[No, no ! and loud cheers.]—l repeat'— ` You're a fool,' cried Valentine in a singularly gruff tone ; on which there were again loud cries of Shame!' and Order !' ' I'll commit the first man,' cried the mayor with a swell of indignation ' who again interrupts these important proceed ings, be he whomsoever he may. ' You can't, old boy !' cried Valentine. ' Who, who is that?' said the mayor—' I demand to know instantly who it is that dares thus to'— ` Dares !' exclaimed Valentine. ' Dares ! aye, dares !' cried the mayor. I'll give five pounds to any man who will point out to me that atrocious indivi vidual.' The electors at this moment stared at each other, and all appeared lost in amazement. The mayor again rose, and assuming a more tranquil tone said,—' Really, gentlemen, this conduct is perfectly disgrace ful. In the course of my experience I never met with any thing remotely comparable to'— ' Jonathan Sprawl,' cried Valentine, ` he's the man.' ' If,' said the mayor, I thought that—but no, no, lam certain, Mr. Sprawl'— ' I assure you, said Jonathan, the interruption did not proceed from me, on honour. He who said that it did is a slanderer and no gentleman ; and I tell him so openly to his teeth." ' I am satisfied,' said the mayor, ' quite satisfied, and therefore do trust that we shall be permitted to proceed.' Mr. Creedale, who was still in possession of the chair, again resumed :--- 4 I am not inclined,' said he, ' to indulge on this occasion in anything which may tend to create feelings of irritation ; but I must be permitted to say that I am utterly at a loss as to the conduct of Mr. Maxill!' said Valentine, imitating the voice of Mr. Creedale the speaker. ' Demme !' cried Maxill, who was a short stumpy man, with a remarkably raw-beefy face, ' I begs to rise to order. Demme ! I claims the protection of the cheer, and if so be as Mr. Creedale means for to mean as it's me, why, demme, I repels the insiniwation—(applause)--I repels the insiniwa tion, and means for to say this, that all I can say is —(Bravo MAxili)—all I can say is demme, is this'— ' You're an as: ' ' cried Valentine, throwing his voice im mediately behind Mr. Maxill; hold your tongue.' Within the sphere of the reader's observation, it has in all probability occurred that a man, being, in nautical phrase ology, three sheets in the wind, and writhing under the lash of some real or imaginary insult, has made desperate efforts to reach an opponent through the barrier composed of mu tual friends; and so, if the reader should have beheld an in dividual in that interesting position, foaming, and plunging, and blustering, and occasionally striking his dearest friend, in his efforts.to get at the enemy, he is qualified to form some conception of the scene of which ' little fatty Maxill' was the hero. He fancied that he had discovered the delinquent. Nothing could shake his faith in the assumed fact, that an individual named Abraham Bull, who happened to be stand ing at the time in the immediate vicinity, was the person by whom he had been insulted. He therefore sprang at him with all the ferocity at his command; but - being checked by those around, who were conscious of Bull's perfect inno cence, he, bent upon vengeance, continued kicking and bul lying, and dealing out his blows right and left, with the most perfect discrimination, until the constables lifted him clean off his legs, and without any further ceremony rolled him into the street. The mayor now fondly imagined that this would have the effect of restoring perfect order ; he believed that after such an example as that, no individual, or body of individuals, would dare to offer the slightest interruption to the proceed ings of the day ; and having expressed himself quietly to that effect, he bowed and waved his hand to Mr. Creedale. * It will probably be necessary here to observe, that in Suffolk a dickey' is the short for an ass. ETYMOLOGY OF THE NAMES OF COUNTRIES. The following countries were named by the Phoenicians, the greatest commercial people in the world. These names, in the Phoenician language, signify something characteristic of the places which they designate. Europe signifies a country of white complexion—so named because the inhabitants there were of a lighter complexion than those of either Asia or Africa. Asia signifies between, or in the middle—from the fact that the geographers placed it between Europe and Africa. Africa signifies the land of corn, or ears. It was celebrated for its abundance of corn, and all sorts of grain. Siberia signifies thirsty or dry—very characteristic of the country. Spain, a country of rabbits or conies. This country was once so infested with these animals that they sued Augustus for an army to destroy them. Italy, a country of pitch—from its yielding great quanti ties of black pitch. Calabria also—for the same reason. Gaul, modern France, signifies yellow-haired, as yellow hair characterized its first inhabitants. _ _ The English of Caledonia is a high hill. This was a rugged mountainous province in Scotland. Hibernia is utmost, or last habitation; for beyond this, westward, the Phoenicians never extended their voyages. Britain, the country of tin—as there were great quantities of lead and tin found on the adjacent islands. The Greeks called it Albion, which signifies in the Phoenician - tongue, either white or high mountains, from the whiteness of its shores, or the high rocks on the western coast. Corsica, signifies a woody place. Sardinia signifies the footstep of man which it resembles. Syracuse signifies bad savor, called so from the unwhole some marsh upon which it stood. Rhodes, serpents or dragons, which it produced in abun dance. Sicily, the country of grapes. Scylla the whirlpool of destruction. Charybdis,theholds of destruction. Etnisignihes furnace, or dark, or smoky. SELECT EXTRACTS. At least one hundred thousand good impressions can he obtained from a wood-cut, if properly engraved and carefully printed. BREWING.—A few things necessary to be known in brew ing, in order to have good beer. First mash ; to every four gallons of boiling water add one of cold, and mash directly, stirring it well. In summer let the liquor remain on the goods only two hours, or it will turn acid. - Boil the wort till it settles down fine in a glass. Take care the yeast is not stale, or it will affect the whole. Let the vessel be very clean. Turn the second morning, and keep the barrels filled up till the fermentation ceases. When the wort is boiling, add to every fifty gallons one ounce of sal-prunel, or in the same quanti ties, mix half a pound of flour. When it is turned, if the beer is not very strong, it will be fit to drink in a fortnight. A HOLE IN THE WALL.—Lady Huntingdon once spoke to a workman who was repairing a garden wall and pressed him to take some thought concerning eternity and the state of his soul. Some years afterwards she was speaking to another on the same subject, and said to him, " Thomas, I fear you never pray, nor look to Christ for salvation."—" Your lady ship's mistaken," answered the man. " I heard whatpassed between you and James at such a time, and the word you de signed for him took effect on me." " How did you hear it ? " enquired her ladyship. " I heard it," answered the man, " on the other side of the garden, through a hole in the wall, and shall never forget the impression I received." — Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, Vol. 11. ANECDOTE OF THE REV. JOHN BERRIDGE.—In a letter to 'Lady Huntingdon Mr. B. says :—" I have been whipping pretty severely for fighting out of my proper regiment, and for rambling out of the bounds of my parish : arid whilst the smart of the rod remains upon my back, and it will weigh with me more than a thousand arguments. All marching officers are not general officers ; and every one should search out the extent of his commission. A Gospel minister, who has a church, will have a diocese annexed to it, and is only an overseer or bishop of that diocese; and let him, like faithful Grimshaw, look well to it. An Evangelist, who has no church, is a metropolitan, or. a cosmopolitan, and may ramble all over the kingdom, or all the world over ; and these are more highly honoured than the others, though they are not always duly sensible of the honour.—Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Tinges, Vol. 11. INTERESTING INCIDENT CONNECTED WITH THE LATE SUICIDE AT THE MONUMENT.-It will be recollected that in the first accounts which appeared in the public papers re lative to the suicide of the ill-fated Miss Moyes, it was stated that the body in its descent struck against a bird-cage, which was hanging on the right side of the Monument door, and broke it into pieces, but no mention was made of the feathered prisoner in the cage. On inquiring out of curiosity, yesterday, Jenkins, the keeper of the column, said that the bird, a male goldfinch (what bird fanciers call " a cock of six," from having six white marks under the extremities of the tail feathers), escaped when the cage was broken, and flew away. In about an hour afterwards the bird returned, and perched itself on one of the plants in the tubs near the door, and allowed itself to be retaken. The pretty creature now attracts almost as much attention as the Monument itself, and Jenkins has been offered more than its weight in gold for it, but he refuses to part for love or money with his faithful favourite.—Morning Herald. THE CHURCH.—On the character of its ministers the prosperity of the Church will at all times greatly depend. That they should first be men of talents and piety is devoutly to be desired. Education succeeds to prepare them for this peculiar service. Could a greater blessing be wished for the human race than that it might be regarded as an universal maxim, " that no man should receive an education for the pastoral office who had not first been made a partaker of a divine nature, and know the grace of God in truth ?" Could a man write Latin with the elegance of a Cicero, or Greek with the sublimity of a Plato ? could he compose poetry like Virgil, and vie as a mathematician with Euclid or Sir Isaac Newton, how little would they all conduce to make him a good minister of Jesus Christ ; for they all lie at the remo test distance from the knowledge of a Saviour, and the doc trine which is according to godliness ! The most illiterate man that ever entered a pulpit, if he understands the me thod of salvation, is versed in the Scriptures, and can tell one unvarnished tale of Him who died upon the cross to save the chief of sinners, though he cannot utter a single sentence without a breach of the rules of grammar, is infinitely better qualified for the pastoral office, and will do unspeakably more service in promoting the salvation of immortal souls.—Coun tess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, Vol. 11. INTERESTING DISCOVERY IN VACCINATION.—MT. surgeon of Aylesbury, has demonstrated the important fact, that small-pox and cow-pox have the same ingress, the latter being small-pox communicated to the cow. Mr. C. inocu lated cows with small-pox matter; the vesicle produced in the animal had every appearance of the vaccine pock. To ascertain the point, children were inoculated with matter taken from the cow thus artificially infected ; the result was, a tine, genuine vaccine vesicle. To establish the fact satis factorily, these children were submitted to small-pox inocu lation, and found to be protected from the disease. Twenty five successive inoculations have now been performed with this new virus, which may truly be named vanola vaccine, and it continues to produce the most satisfactory vesicles; the matter has been employed in Bristol with perfect success. The importance of this discovery cannot be too highly appre ciated. Small-pox often breaks out in countries where cow pox cannot be procured; now, it is only necessary to inocu late a cow with the small-pox, and this virulent morbid poison, so fatal to human life, will be converted by this use ful animal into a mild fluid capable of protecting all inocula ted with it, from that dreadful malady the small-pox. SOCIETY IN LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER.—When I was young I spent a good deal of my time in Manchester and Liverpool ; and I profess I give preference to the former. There you were oppressed only by the aristocracy of wealth ; in the latter by the aristocracy of wealth and letters by turns. You could not help feeling that some of their great men were authors among merchants, and merchants among authors. Their bread was buttered on both sides, snd they had you at a disadvantage either way. The Manchester cotton-spinners, on the contrary, set up no pretensions beyond their looms, were hearty good fellows, and took any information or dis play of ingenuity on their subjects in good part. I remember well being introduced to a distinguished patron of art and rising merit at a little distance from Liverpool, and was re ceived with every mark of attention and politeness, till the conversation turning on Italian literature, our host remarked that there was nothing in the English language corresponding to the severity of the Italian ode—except, perhaps, Alexan der's Feast and Pope's St. Cecilia ! I could no longer con tain my desire to display my smattering in criticism, and be gan to contend that. Pope's Ode was, as it appeared to me, far from an example of severity in writing. I soon perceived what I had done, but here am I writing Table-talk in conse quence. Alas ! I knew as little of the world then as Ido now. I never could understand anything beyond an abstract definition.—Hazlitt. EXECUTION OF MARY JONES.- 4 ' It is a circumstance not to be forgotten that she was very young (under 19), and most remarkably handsome. She went to the linendraper's shop, took some coarse linen off the counter, and slipped it under her cloak. The shopman saw her, and she laid it ' down • for this she was hanged. Her defence was, that she had lived in credit and wanted for nothing till a pressgang came and stole her husband from her, but since then she had no bed to lie on, nothing to give her two children to eat, and they were almost naked •, and perhaps she might have done something wrong, for she hardly knew what she did.' The parish officers testified the truth of this story. But it seems there had been a good deal of shoplifting about Lud gate—an example was thought necessary—and this woman was hanged for the comfort and satisfaction of some shop keepers in Ludgate-street. When brought to receive sen tence she behaved in such a frantic manner as proved her mind to be in a distracted and desponding state ; and the child was sucking at her breast when she set out for Tyburn gallows! Let us reflect a little on this woman's fate. The poet says An honest man's the noblest work of GoD.' He might have said, with equal truth, that a beauteous woman is the noblest work of GOD' But for what cause was GOD'S creation robbed of this its noblest work? It was for no injury, but for a mere attempt to clothe two naked children by unlawful means. Compare this with what the state did, and what the law did. The state bereaved the woman of her husband, and the children of a father, who was all their sup port : the law deprived the woman of her life, and the children of their remaining parent, exposing them to every danger, insult, and merciless treatment that destitute and helpless orphans suffer. Take all the circumstances together, I do not believe that a fouler murder was ever committed against law than the murder of this woman by law."—From Sir William Meredith's Speech in the House of Commons. OUTLETS TO BRITISH CAPITAL IN THE EAST—Com merce at large, and also British commerce, is not at more than its first developments. In proof of this see the countries of the world unvisited by commerce.—Keeping out of view the expanse of Africa, or the superb tracts of the American continent; recurrence to the Eastern hemisphere is sufficient to show how little is commenced, and how much remains to be prosecuted of a commercial character. In reference to the East, it were well posterity should ponder upon the effect which one fatal error has entailed upon the whole train of of British Interests, and how, from a single principle of mo nopoly, a grievance of so leviathan extent grew up, as to the present day to have reduced the countries of the Oriental world to an obsure idea, and of allowing, as in the instance of Russia, the legitimate channels of British mercantile enter prise to have devolved to the keeping of foreigners. But if along the northern chain of countries which bound Asia from the Don to the Caspian—from the Caspian to the central part of the wild Toorkmuns, through Persia, Tartary, and on to the very wall of Pekin, we find the Russians in possession of that vast traffic, it will not excite surprise that on the south ern extremities of that continent, along the luxuriant and picturesque regions forming its tropical girdle—the merchants nearly in exclusive possession of the profits of trade—are the Chinese. " The most extensive, intimate, and probably the most ancient, of the foreign commercial relations of the In dian Islands," is that with China ; there is engaged in this commerce 30,000 tons of shipping, which is " 9000 tons more than that usually engaged in the direct intercourse between Great Britain and China."—Oriental Herald. LADIES IN PARLIAMENT.-At one period of her life, Lady Huntingdon appears to have been much occupied with po litical questions. Her sentiments were comformable with those of Sir Robert Walpole and his administration; and she was much connected with the courtiers of that day. A little incident which occurred at this period will serve to mark the natural ardour of her character. There were some stormy debates in the House of Lords, in May INS, on the depreda tions of the Spaniards, in which Lord Huntingdon, Lord Hervey, and others - of his intimate friends took a leading part. Her Ladyship expressed her intention of being present, though ladies were excluded. "At the last warm debate in the House of Lords, (says Lady Mary Wortley Montague) it was unanimously resolved there should be no unnecessary auditors ; consequently the fair sex were excluded, and the gallery destined to the sole use of the House of Commons. Notwithstanding which determination, a tribe of dames re solved to show, on this occasion, that neither men nor laws 'could resist them. The heroines were Lady Huntingdon, the Duchess of Queensbury, the Duchess of Ancaster, Lady Westmoreland, Lady Cobham, Lady Charlotte Edwin, Lady Archibald Hamilton and her daughter, Mrs. Scott, Mrs. Pen darves, and Lady Frances Saunderson. lam thus particular in their names, since I looked upon them to be the boldest assertors and most resigned sufferers for liberty I ever read of. They presented themselves at the door at nine o'clock in the morning, when Sir William Sanderson respectfully in formed them that the Chancellor had made an order against their admittance. The Duchess of Queensbury, as head of the squadron, " pished" at the ill-breeding of a mere lawyer, and desired Sir William to let them up stairs privately. After some modest refusals, he swore he would not admit them. Her Grace, with a noble warmth, answered, they would come in, in spite of the Chancellor and the whole House. This being reported, the Peers resolved to starve them out : an order was made that the doors should not be opened till they had raised their siege. These Amazons now showed them selves qualified for the duty even of foot-soldiers ; they stood there till five in the afternoon, without sustenance, every now and then plying vollies of thumps, kicks, and raps, with so much violence against the door that the speakers of the House were scarce heard. When the Lords were not to be conquered by this, the two Duchesses (very well apprised of the use of stratagems in war) commanded a silence of half an hour ; and the Chancellor, who thought this a certain proof of their absence, (the Commons also being very impatient to enter,) gave orders for the opening of the door, upon which they all rushed in, pushed aside their competitors, and placed themselves in the front rows of the gallery. They stayed there till after eleven, when the House rose ; and during the debate gave applause, and showed marks of dislike, not only by smiles and winks (which have always been allowed in these cases,) but by noisy laughs and apparent contewpts, which is supposed the true reason why poor Lord Hervey spoke so miserably."—Countess of Huntingdon'. Lffe and Times, 2 Vols. POTATOES AND Bnocom.—lt may be useful to gardeners to be informed that after young potatoes are cleared from the rows, and the ground well dug in the form of shallow trenches and manured, it will be found advantageous to trans plant spring brocoli plants in the trenches. This vegetable flourishes greatly after the potato, as does also wheat on a large scale of farming. The excrementitious matter of the flax plant, and also that of parsnips, is equally favourable, with the potatoe, to a good crop of wheat, if sown after they are severally removed. In all revolutions the lower orders have been the principal sufferers. There perished in the French Revolution 1,022,351 souls. Of these, how many were from the lower orders ! "It is in an especial manner remarkable in this dismal ca talogue (says Allison), how large a proportion of the victims of the Revolution were persons in the middling and lower ranks of life. The priests and nobles guillotined are only 1,423 ; while the persons of plebeian origin exceed 13,000 ! The nobles and priests put to death at Nantes, were only 2,160 ; while the infants, drowned and shot, are 2,030 ; the women, 764 ; and the artisans, 5,300 ! So rapidly in revo lutionary convulsions does the career of cruelty reach the lower orders, and so wide-spread is the carnage dealt out to them, compared with that which they have sought to inflict on their superiors."—Gore's Letters to the Middle Classes of England, PHILOSOPHY.—" What's the reason," said Mr. &peers, " of rheumatics ? what do they mean ? fihat do people have 'em for—eh !" Mrs. Silderskiew didn't know, but suggested that it was possibry because they could'nt help it. " Measles, rheumatics, hooping-coughs, fevers, agues, and lumbagers," said Mr. Squeers, " is all philosophy together, that's what it is. The heavenly bodies is philosophy, and the earthly bo dies is philosophy. If there's a screw loose in a heavenly body, that's philosophy, and if there's a screw loose in an earthly body, that's philosophy too ; or it may be that sometimes there's a little metaphysics in it, but that's not often. Philosophy is the chap kr_ me. If a parent asks a question in the classical, commercial, or mathematical line, says I gravely, Why sir, in the first place are you a philoso pher?'—' No, Mr. Squeers,' he says, ' I an't'—' Then sir,' says I, lam sorry for it, for I shan't be able to explain it' Naturally the parent goes away and wishes he was a philoso pher, amid equally naturally, thinks I'm one.—Nicholas Nickleby. " Loox WHERE YOU'RE GOING."—If you intend to marry—if you think your happiness will be increased and your interest advanced by matrimony—be sure and ask, Jook where you're going." Join yourself in union with no woman who is selfish, for she will sacrifice you—with no one who is fickle, for she will be estranged—have nought to do with a proud one, for she wjll ruin you. Leave the coquette to the fools that flutter around her—let her own fire-side ac commodate a scold—and flee from a woman who loves scandal as you would flee from the evil one. " Look where you're going," will sum it up. Young ladies, when you are sur rounded by dashing men—when the tones of love and the words of compliment float out together—when you are ex cited by the movement of the whirling waltz, or melted by the tenderness of mellow music, arrest yourself in that rosy atmosphere of delight, and "look where you're going."— When a daring hand is pressing yours, or your delicate tresses are lifted by him, you fancy he loves you; when the moon light invites to -trusting, and the stars seem to breathe out innocence, listen with caution to the words you hear—gaze into your heart unshrinkingly, and " look where you're going." PERSIAN ACCOUNT OF THE ENGLISH AND OF DUEL LING.—The people of this kingdom are of genteel nature, and delicate constitution ; most of the ladies, and females in general, are more delicate and refined than the blossom of roses. Their waist is more slender than a finger ring, their form is beautiful, their voice gains the affections. The men are very particular in their disputes, which are carried on with great ability. If there should be the widest possible misunderstanding, still they keep up the rules of politeness. If it should rise so high as to produce vindictive feeling, still they carry on their disputes in a genteel style, and bad language (God forbid !) is not used, To be called a liar is the utmost insult ; this will lead to a duel ; the duel is al lowed here. Sometimes this happens in such circumstances as the following :—lf a man should be at an assembly, and should have something said to him improper• or disgraceful, he who feels it to be such would at once leave the room. Then he will relate it to some friend, saying, that he heard so and so, at such a place, in such a party, which he did not like at all. Then his friend will reply, So and so perhaps did not intend to insult you, he might have said it by acci dent; write a note, and I will carry it tohim, and learn more fully." Then the plaintiff will write to him a respectful letter, as follows :—" At suc h an d su ch a day, at suc h an assemblage, I heard you say such words, which made tri7 heart feel angry: please t o ex pl a i n t o m e what you me an t. ' Then the friend will carry the note, and request an answer. If the object of the accused is not to insult him, he will write him an answer as follows :—" Upon my honour I never in tended to create any displeasure in you ; and should I have said any thing which you consider improper, I now beg your pardon." Such an answer will settle the question. But if otherwise, he will neither excuse himself nor beg pardon, but will answer as follows :—" I h ave rece i v ed your l e tt er , which I will thus answer : meet me on such a day at such a place, and thereby you will be informed and learn all particulars." This will give him to understand that the object is a duel. Then he informs his friends of it, and commences prepara tions to meet his opponent, and likewise the other will in form his friends that he has already appointed the time to fight with such a man. Then the friends of both endeavour to settle the question between them ; but, generally, this can not be effected without fighting the duel. However, when all mediations fail, then the two individuals, accompanied by their respective friends as witnesses, meet at the appointed place, exactly at the fixed hour, which will be published in the newspapers. When the two come to this place with their pistols, then the friends use their utmost influence of mediation ; if at last all should be vain, then they separate from each other a distance of twenty feet, and the signal will be given, when both fire. Then it becomes a matter of chance ; sometimes both of them are hit and perish, and perhaps :no one is hit, or one dies, and the other is saved. Thus the question is finished : this act is permitted by their law, which does not condemn it ; and it has been a well known practice among the fools of this nation from the an cient times. It is quite similar to the old foolish custom of the heathens, w)io threw both the plaintiff and defendant into the fire, believing that the flame would only burn the crimi nal, and not the innocent. Thus, also, these people believe that the bullet will not hit the innocent. —Journal of a Re sidence in England. Tkis JEWS IN PALEsTINE.—In a recent letter from the Rev. Mr. M`Cheyne (one of a a deputation from this coun try, to ascertain the state of the Jews in Judea,) we meet with the following:—" The accounts we received at home, as to the state of the Jews in this land, are far from being accu rate. The exact number of Jews in Palestine it is very diffi cult to ascertain. The largest estimate reckons them to be about 15,000. Some state them so low as 10,000. They re side chiefly in the four holy cities, as the Jews call them. In Jerusalem, about 7,000 ; in Hebron 700 to 800 ; in Tiberias, 1,200 ; in Saffet 1,500 to 2,000. In the towns along the coast there may he—in Jaffa, 60 ; in Kiaffa, 150 to 200 ; in Acre, 200 ; in Tyre, 150 ; in Sidon, 300 ; in Nablous (the ancient Sychar), we found about 200, and 150 Samaritans. In the villages of Gallilee there may be 400 or 300. The in crease in the number of Jews has been very decided since 1832, when the Pacha of Egypt took possession of Syria. For two years past, the increase has not been so great, owing to the ravages of the plague, the increased price of provisions, the embarrassed.finances of the Jewish community, and the oppression of their Rabbis. In my last I mentioned that in Europe collections are made • at the door of the synagogue, for the support of the Jews in the Holy Land. These collecti ons amount annually, upon an average, to £2,800. Every Jew in the land, rich and poor, after he has been a year in the country, has a share appointed to him if he chooses to take it. The chief cause of their returning to this land seems certainly to be attachment to the inheritance of their fathers. They also believe, that their rabbis here are actually inspired, that to die in this land is, to a Jew, certain salvation ; and that, if they die out of it, they must make their way under ground to rise in the Valley of Jehoshaphat. They are very different to the Jews we have seen in France and Italy : they are far from being infidel ; on the contrary, they are super stitious Jews. They have a real expectation of Messiah's coming; and this feeling is waxing stronger and stronger. They are far kinder and gentler in their dealings with us ; they seem to look upon us as friends. This is not wonderful, when you remember that they are counted as dogs by all the Moslems. They maintain the beautiful dress of their fathers, and are a noble looking race, as compared with the wretched Arabs who are scattered over this land. Almost all the male Jews here spend their time in reading. There are six syna gogues in Jerusalem and thirty-six reading places. These are established by individuals, that they may attain some merit to their souls! Five or six readers are appointed to each, having a small salary, one or two of whom are expected to be always there, reading the Talmud. Mr. Bonar confirms Mr. M`Cheyne's account of the Jews, in a letter from Jerusalem, dated 17th June :—" The real state of the Jews in Palestine is very interesting. The varying accounts we used to hear of their condition are at once realised by inquiry on the spot. We find them to be far less numerous than is usually reported, and there have been fewer resorting to the land during these last three years than during the three preceding. Yet, still it is true, that there is a constant influx of them, however small. But they die very rapidly. The prevalence of plague; the price of provisions, owing to the state of the country, and their internaktate of division in Jerusalem, have discouraged Jews from Europe from coming here of late. They carry on no trade, except the few who are at Tyre, Sidon, and Kiaffa. Hence poverty is a general fpature of all the Jews here. There are few rich men among them, and these few conceal their wealth. As to their feelings towards Christianity, these two are peculiar. Of course, those that come to Jerusalem, are devout and strict Jews, who reckon it a merit to go the Holy City. Yet these very men are on good terms with the missionaries—treat them as friends—often apply to them for. advice ; and one of their brethen, a convert, goes out and in among them, not only undisturbed but respected. There is much hope of good being done among them. We had op portunity of again and again seeing how accessible the people of Israel are to kindness." SMUGGLERS' TRICKS, AT RYE.—The vigilance of the coast blockade party had at one period so c , impletely guarded the entrance to Rye harbour, that the smugglers were dri ven to all kinds of shifts in order to get their tubs into it unobserved. The time chosen for these experiments was usually that which intervened between daybreak and break fast, after the night watch had retired to rest, and while none remained upon the look-out, but one or two solitary senti nels. Seizing such an opportunity, when a strong flood-tide was running, a large galley painted white, like those of the revenue cruisers, rowed boldly into port, the steersman being disguised in a military cloak and cocked hat, such as are generally worn by naval officers. As the galley darted past, the sentinel called out, " What ship's boat is that ?" " Kite, revenue cutter," was the reply : so taking it for granted she was conveying some officers upon business to the custom house at Rye, she was permitted to pass without further in terruption. Being swept along by the tide with great velo city, the boat soon reached a retired nook in the river, half way between its entrance and the town, where a company of smugglers, provided with light carts, awaited her arrival. In less than ten minutes, the galley was landed, emptied, turned bottom upon th 6 beach, her crew gone, and the cargo proceeding rapidly on its journey into the weald of Kent; nor was it till some days after, that the officers became aware of the deception which had been practised upon the sentinel. An attempt was soon after made to tow smuggled goods into Rye harbour, confined under a vessel's bottom, by means of a hawser passing through a hollow tube amidships, so that there was no external appearance of a tow-rope ; and the tube, being fitted. on deck to resemble a pump, with a seaman's jacket, or wet swab, thrown carelessly over the top. the scheme might have wholly escaped detection, had not one of the sinkers, or weights, by accident broken adrift from the raft, which occasioned the tubs to keep popping their heads above water like porp i se s. In order to prevent such a project succeeding in future, it became the practice to sweep the keels of suspected vessels, by passing the bite of a rope along from stem to stern. Being thus frustrated, the smugglers next endeavoured to foot cargoes up Rye harbour without the assistance of boats or vessels. Some dozens of tubs were strung together like a lady's necklace, to which weights were fastened sufficient to sink the whole under water, but with a buoy-rope at each end of the• raft, having pieces of cork affixed large enough to keep the tubs suspended a few feet blow the surface of the sea. The corks might not excite suspicion, they were entirely concealed by a covering of sea-weed ; and thus prepared, the whole paraphernalia was towed fowards the entrance of the harbour, and cast adrift in mid channel, to be carried in by the flood tide : the smuggler's vessel meanwhile adroitly manoeuvring to draw the attention of the guard-boat in another direction. Once within the port, all danger of detection ceased, the vigilance of the coast blockade party being necessarily re stricted, as before mentioned, exclusively to the entrance.— United Service Journal.

We understand that henceforward afc rce will be brought upon the works adequate to th t ompletioi. of the line in the ensuing summer. The ennbai.kinent across the sands up to the harbour at Fleetwood, are in active 'in gress, and a considerable length is already nea-ly finirhe 1, —which notwithstanding the late stormy and rai iy wea he has sustained little or no injury. Several new bt ildings ar in the course of erection, at Fleetwood, among which ar • two or three public edifices. At the mouth of the harb, it nearly 800 men are employed, under the superintend ence Captain Denham, in cutting away a small triangular poin of sand, which at present narrows materially the immedt .te channel, a kind of strait, between the sea and the main bo iy of the water constituting the harbour. In connection with this work workmen are also employed in cutting off a con necting stream between a lower part of the harbour and t ie sea,—thus forcing the whole body of the water, and a porti n of the tidal water, to flow in one current, which if accomplis. - ed, will answer the double purpose of scouring the channel from the mouth of the harbour to the sea, and of acquiri,,g an increased supply of water, constantly available for vessels entering or going out of the harbour. If this point be gained it will add greatly to the utility and value of the haven. The Directors have commenced the erection of a dredging vessel, for the purpose of scouring the harbour when necessary, and of removing the small shoals of sand which intercept here and there the free navigation. A number of excellent punts are already made and a steam tug is in constant readiness for towing vessels e ntering the harbour, when a tug is required , and also for assisting in the various improvements carrying on fur extending the capabilities of the bay as a port for large vessels. Sir Hesketh Fleetwood is giving indefatigable atten tion to the construction of the different works comprised in the undertaking, and is sparing neither pains, labour, nor ex pense, in order to the successful accomplishment of the en tire project. We had an opportunity of visiting Fleetwood the other day, and were much struck with the beauty and ex cellence of the plans laid down, for the erection of the intend ed town. If completed according to the present designs, it will, beyond all doubt, be one of the most uniform, well-built and elegant towns in the kingdom. So far however, as the existing plans extend, it will be, by no mea ,s, an important town as to size. When we were down, there was a vessel of between 700 and 800 tons burthen, floc in the harbour at low water. We had not the means of; ,certaining whe ther the harbour is capable of accornmodat h.; simultaneously several such vessels.—Preston Chronicle &Dipping iintriligt ut.

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, SEPT. 28. • ' We have, this week, a large importation of foreign WHEAT, amounting to upwards of 11,000 qrs., which, with the previous bonded stocks cf this grain and FLOUR, will, no doubt, be released in a few days at the duty of 6s. Bd. per imperial quarter. The ar rivals into this port of other articles of the trade continue on a very limited scale. Although we have had a few heavy showers of rain, the weather, on the whole, has not been unfavourable for harvest operations, and we have had a less active demand for WHEAT than for many previous weeks; holders have, at the same time, been willing to accede to some reduction in price. At yesterday's mar ket the sales made were at fully 4d. per bushel below our quotations for this day sennight. There were a few samples of Irish new WHEAT exhibited, the quality, for the most part, very inferior : they were offered at prices varying from Bs. to 98. per 701bs. FLOUR was Is. per sack cheaper. Two or three small cargoes of free foreign OATS have arrived coastwise. which are selling at 48. 6d. to 4s gd. per 451bs. : the few Irish new that have appeared have brought sim ilar rates. New OATMEAL has brought 435. ; old 40s. to 41s. per 240 lbs. There is very little BARLEY remaining over: Is. 6d. per 601bt. has been paid for good grinding.
