43ottrp. THE " CHURCH OF OUR FATHERS." (For the Liverpool Standard) Oh, lives there the Briton, his country surveying, Who, cold, on the " Church of his Fathers" could gaze— Warm'd not by her virtues, nor inwardly praying She still might be lumin'd by Heav'n's bright rays ? Hard, hard is the heart which such feelings betrays ! Who does not the fate of her children remember— Her children who honour'd the faith of their God ; Whose actions gave lustre to life's dying ember— Who gladly could kiss, when afflicted, the rod? Her Martyrs !—who rest now beneath the green sod ! Oh, long be the names of those holy ones treasured, Deep lodg'd in the breasts of religion's true sons ! Our love to the " Church of our Fathers" be measured By that high devotion which no danger shuns — Which, glad, in the paths that they mark'd for us, runs. Ah, can there be any, religion despising, And slighting the anger which none can withstand, Who, 'gainst the dear " Church of the Martyrs" uprising, Would seek to destroy it with impious hand ? Safeguard of our freedom !—safeguard of our land ! Oh, Saviour of mortals ! what demon implanted The thought of such madness in man's fallen heart ? By virtue unsoften'd, by danger undaunted, What ! would he the Church from its Master dispart ? Ah, vain the attempt !—'tis beyond Satan's art! Our Church on the " rock" of salvation is founded ; Man's efforts to shake it can never avail 'T will stand till the trump of the last day be sounded, — Yes, nations shall perish,—man's life, too, shall fail, — The " Church of our Fathers" shall ever " prevail" ! Liverpool, June 24th, 1839. J. M. L. THE ENGLISH STANDARD. (For the Liverpool Standard) Oh ! Lion'd flag of England !—thou banner of the free ! Thou glorious ensign of the brave ! thou star of liberty ! Thou victor on a thousand fields ! thou terror of the foe ! Wave, wave thy wings upon the winds that freshly round - - thee blow ! Thou gleaming meteor in the fight ! thou ne'er-dishonoured sign ! Thou bearest victory on thy wings along the battle-line ; Where'er the war's loud thunders roll, where'er its fury bums, There, there thou wavest 'midst the fight, and there the bat- • tle turns. A thousand flags have sunk before the fury of thine ire ; A thousand conquer'd foes have known and quail'd before thy fire : Within our island-home thou waves, the guardian of the land • And whi le thou waves, no hostile foot shall press our ocean strand ! Thy crimson folds, which proudly float out to the sky-born breeze, Are like a fiery beacon light, unquench'd amid the seas ; Aye ! and unquench'd it shall remain while English freedom lives, And that high, pure devotedness which English freedom gives. Thou hast been dy'd in holy blood, thou victory-charmed sign ! Pour'd forth like water in thy cause by generous sons of thine : Triumphant, e'en in death, their eyes have joy'd to see thee wave, When other flags were flying fast before the charging brave. The thunders of the battle-storm--the white smoke wreath ing fast— The shouts of contest rising loud, and echoing on the blast— These are the elements where thou waves joyously and free, For wheresoever these are found, there is a throne for thee. They fight beneath a holy flag, who fight where fluttering far, Thy lion-folds are spread upon the Simoom gales of war ; The sun that rises, thee to light upon the combat's track, 0 ! always may his setting see victoriously borne back ! Liverpool, June, 1839. F. H. PROVIDENCE. BY THE REV. R. MONTGOMERY, A.M. Frail king of dust, man loves to look around, And think,—" for me the elements abound With life and motion ; shade and sunshine wait In mixt attendance on my human state ; Light, sea, and air, their glorious spell maintain, That I alone, as Lord of Earth, may reign !" And yet, what art thou ?—but a fleeting breath, A pulse of life that throbs away in death ! Myriads of creatures round thee move and die, Minute beyond the ken of mortal eye ; Perfect as thine, their bright existence teems With beauty, in a paradise of beams ; Or, in some crystal world of water play, A floating populace of insects gay ; And HE who bade exalted man to be An image of His own eternity, Alike to them a form and feature gives, And not a mote but in His mem'ry lives ! CONTEMPORARY PRESS. THE EDUCATION SCHEME. (From the Morning Herald.) The country is opposed to the ministerial scheme of education. Let three thousand and fifty petitions avouch the fact. The House of Lords is opposed to the scheme. Witness the fear of ministers to permit to the upper house an opportunity to express its senti ments on the question. The House of Commons is opposed to the scheme—as the majority of TWO may be admitted to testify. Let the composition of that majority be noted.— Thirty-seven placemen, whose offices are at stake, have voted in that majority. Upwards of forty Irish Ro man Catholic members—men whose oaths ought to have prevented them from voting on a question affect ing the measure of influence to be enjoyed by the Church of England over popular education in Eng land—have thrown their votes into the scale of the whig placemen, their fellow conspirators against the established church. Nay, several dissenters who sit on the ministerial side of the house—and who, if they had given expression, on this occasion, to the senti ments of those, to whose sentiments they affect, on all other occasions, to give utterance, would have voted against the ministerial project—forgot the claims of their religious supporters out of doors, and took part with Lord John Russell and his associates. If, besides, there had been no treachery in the con servative ranks, there would have been no majority, last night, in favour of the government measure. If, for instance, even that poor creature, Mr. Gibson, who misrepresents the conservatives of Ipswich, had been ' true to the wishes of his constituents, the numbers for and against the ministerial plan would have been equal. If Mr. Ingham and Mr. Baring Wall, in like manner, had not, on this great question, as on several others, abused the trusts confided to them, the majority against ministers would have amounted to FOUR. Will ministers pretend to retain office after the di vision of last night ? How will their " duty to the Queen" square with their majority of TWO ? Alas ! poor whigs ! place and pay are more seriously endan gered than ever ! The efficacy of their compromises. and equivocations, and meannesses and falsehoods, is alMost exhausted ! Their Popish majorities are becom ing evanescent ! They entered office in 1835 with " a working majority" of 54 ; and they have worked that " working majority" down to TWO ! This scheme of education has been pronounced by ministers " a vital question." Last night's majority ought, at all events, to determine the " vitality" of the administration. To what, .besides, may the present miserable officials venture to trust ? They dare not grapple with the ordinary business of the country.— They dare not deal with the affairs of Canada, or with the affairs of Jamaica, or with the question of 'fish corporations, or with the question of church rates, or with the existing commercial difficulties of the country ! The slightest attempt to assert any one of their declared principles will leave them in a minority. Let them, on the other hand, change their principles once more ; let them declare for the ballot, for household suffrage, and short parliaments ;—and, immediately thirty or forty conservative whigs will join the banner of Sir Moen Peel ! A majority of TWO is an instructive commentary on the recent bed-chamber plot. The " confidence of the country" has not been regained, for the whigs, either by the touching zeal with which these respectable func tionaries hastened to secure to the Queen, at all ha zards, the society of " the friends of her youth"—or by the delicate falsehood which described her Majesty's life as iasecure if the" conservatives should be again restored to office ! THE QUEEN AND FEMALE NOBILITY. (From the Morning Post) The manner in which affairs at Court are now ma naged affords, we think, much ground of anxiety, and some ground of serious complaint, to the female nobi lity of England. It is their duty, as it must be their wish, to grace with their presence any public scene in which her Majesty appears. In the natural order of things, the beauty and grace of the Royal and the no ble fair would, upon all such occasions, mutually shed lustre upon each other, captivating by their mingled power the hearts and war ming th e devotion of all man kind. This picture is an engaging one. But, unfor tunately, it has no other original than what exists in the imagination. The reality approaches daily more nearly to the reverse of this. The incident we are about to narrate would seem to make it a matter of doubt whether, while the Court remains what it is, the female nobility not immediately connected with it can venture, without imprudence and danger, on the same race-course with their Sovereign. At the last Ascot races we . have reason to believe that the Duchess of Montrose and Lady Sarah Inges tre received an intimation that her Majesty was im pressed with the idea that they were among the per sons who had hissed at a moment when no sounds but those of applause, gratulation, and loyalty ought to have been heard. It was, we believe, further intimated to the noble ladies we have mentioned that the Royal ear had been abused to the effect already stated by Lady Lichfield. The ladies, who had reason to think that they had been thus unjustly and ridiculously ac cused, applied immediately to their supposed accuser, who denied that she had made any such communica tion. On being urged to give this denial in writing, she declined to do so without first consulting her lord. But, on the application being renewed at a subsequent period, her ladyship, as we understand, explicitly and in writing, denied that she had given utterance to the calumny in question. Here the matter stood, until, from some incidents connected with the late ball at Buckingham-house, the two ladies thus impeached saw reason to believe that the erroneous impression communicated to her Majesty at Ascot had not been entirely removed. It was an impression, howeser, which they could not permit.. to remain without employing every means of removing it; and accordingly the Duchess of Montrose went to Buckingham Palace and requested an audience of her Majesty. After waiting for a considerable period, (two hours, we have been informed,) her grace was informed by the Earl of Uxbridge that she could not be admit ted to an audience, as none but peers or peeresses in their own right could demand that privilege. Her grace then insisted upon Lord Uxbridge taking down in writing what she had to say, and promising her that the communication should be immediately laid before her Majesty. In this state, we believe, the matter remains sub stantially at the present moment, although it has taken a new form, the Duke of Montrose having, we under stand, thought it necessary to open a correspondence with Lord Melbourne upon the subject. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. TATTERS ALL'S-MONDAY. The muster this afternoon rather exceeded the average at this season, and business, without being heavy, was not wanting in interest. Passing over the July Stakes, which does not excite the slightest interest, we come to the next event in the calendar, the Goodwood Stakes, for which about a dozen horses were backed at liberal odds—no bad compli ment to the handicapper. The Lord Mayor opened at 20 to 1, and had so many supporters, that, at the close, he stood at six points less (takers.) Wee Willie, Confusionee, Romania, and Miss Eliza, were backed rather freely, but made no ad vance worth dwelling on. An abundance of tens and scores were laid out on others, at prices which appear rather extra vagant, considering how difficult it is to " get round:" The cup betting was too insignificant for comment, and enough only was done on the St. Leger to show that both Commodore and The Provost were on the decline. Charles the Twelfth was mentioned at 12 to 1; but although quoted below at that price, we will not take upon ourselves to say it is the actual one. The quotations at the finish were as follow : NEWMARKET JULY STAKES. 2 to 1 agst Lord Exeter's lot (tk) 3to 1 „ Lord Exeter's Hellespont 7to 1 „ Margaret colt (tk.)

The provincial papers contain accounts of dreadful storms during the past and present week. The Western Times states that in Westgate quarter, in Exeter, a large sheet of ice, four feet long and two inches thick, actually fell in the street. On Tuesday last, about noon, this town and neighbourhood were visited by one of the most violent thunder storms, ac companied by lightning of the most vivid description we ever remember to have witnessed in this country. Shortly after 11 o'clock the rolling of thunder was heard in the distance, which rapidly approached towards the town, and, for about an hour, the lightning which followed each succeeding peal was terrific and awful in the extreme. The heavy rain which fell during this period descended in torrents, doing consi derable injury to the numerous gardens in the neighbourhood. Several of the trees in the Slopes were struck by the light ning. Previously to the commencement of the storm, the Hon. and Very Rev. the Dean, and the Rev. Mr. Stopford, with some of his family, were assembled in St. George's Chapel; and likewise Mr. Elvey (organist), Roach the cloister keeper, and two persons named Wix and Field, the latter of whom were exhibiting their vocal powers, being candidates for a deputy singer's situation, now vacant. The parties were in the organ loft ! but the violence of the thunder and the ex treme vividness of the lightning, induced the whole of the party (with the exception of Roach, who remained in the loft), to descend and retire, during the raging of the storm, to another part of the chapel. They had scarcely left when Roach was struck by the electric fluid on the breast, which knocked him down, causing him to be nearly insensible for upwards of 10 minutes, and extremely ill during the remainder of that and the next day. He is, however, now quite reco vered. It may be here observed, as a somewhat singular co incidence, that at the time the party were induced to retire from the organ loft to seek a place of, presumed, greater safety, the organist had just finished playing that beautiful anthem—" It is a glorious God that maketh the thunder." About 12 o'clock, as a woman was crossing the field leading from the Long Walk to Frogmore, she was struck, knocked down, and lay in a state of insensibility for several minutes. During the storm, the female servant of Mr. Neighbour, tailor, Thames-street, experienced a most fortunate escape. She was standing at the door at the back of the house, when she was struck by the electric fluid upon the side of her face. Her eye, from its effects, was greatly discoloured ; but we are glad to state that no further injury has accrued to her. We are informed by a correspondent that at Binfield the hail stones which fell [were of an unusual size ; three were picked up which weighed together exactly a quarter of a pound.— Windsor and Eton Journal. FORMATION OF THE VOLCANO OF JORULLO About eighty years ago, the plains of Jorullo, in Mexico, were the scene of one of the most extraordinary and tremen dous catastrophes that ever wrought a change upon the face of the globe. The southern portion of North America, from about the twenty-fourth degree of north latitude, across the isthmus of Panama, to the second degree of south latitude, is a tract of country which deserves to be entitled par excel lence the region of volcanoes. One great chain of volcanic mountains, with but little interruption, extends over these twenty-six degrees of latitude ; but if we include the bendings and curves which the chain or cordillera makes, we cannot estimate the space over which it passes at much less than two thousand miles in length. Many of the craters, which open like enormous cups on the summits of these mountains, re main in a state of constant activity, emitting vapour, and sometimes flames and ashes ; others are subject to periodical convulsions ; and a third class appear to be altogether ex hausted, as no eruption of them has been known to take place. Several of the lofty peaks penetrate far into the region of per petual congelation ; and from their inaccessible summits, mantled with the snows of unnumbered ages, smoke is seen continually to issue—a striking spectacle, rendered still more remarkable by the volcanoes occasionally giving forth lumi nous exhalations. Not a few terrific and disastrous eruptions are on record ; but none, in its astounding effects, is to be compared with that by which Jorullo was formed, and of which the celebrated Humboldt was the first to present an account to Europeans. Until the year 1759, the present site of the volcano was a fertile plain, well cultivated, and producing abundance of indigo and sugar. It appears to have been a place to which the inhabitants were particularly partial; for the fields were abundantly watered by artificial means, and a plantation was here formed, reckoned one of the largest and richest in the country. In the month of June of the above year, subterra ranean noises of the most appalling description were heard, accompanied by frt qu int earthquakes, which, for nearly sixty days, continued to terrify the inhabitants. A short period of tranquillity then intervened, and every thing appeared to be subsiding into its wonted tranquillity, when, on the night of the 28th September, the horrible subterranean peals were re newed, and a tract of ground four miles square swelled up like an enormous bladder to the height of five hundred feet. The affrighted Indians fled to a neighbouring mountain, called Aguasarco ; and those who witnessed the catastrophe informed Humboldt, that flames were seen to issue forth for an extent of more than half a square league, that huge fragments of burning rocks were propelled upwards to an enormous height ; whilst, through the dense envelop of smoke and ashes, illu mined by the lurid blaze of the volcano, the softened surface of the earth was seen to rise and fall like a tempestuous sea. Several rivers had their currents " turned awry," and were precipitated into the fiery gulf, thereby invigorating the flames, probably from the water being decomposed by the intense heat. Thousands of small cones, varying from six to nine feet in height, issued forth from the softened and inflated surface of the ground. In the midst of these ovens, as the natives expressively call them, six large masses sprang up from the bosom of the burning chasm, into an elevation of from thirteen to seventeen hundred feet each. The highest of these hills is the great volcano of Jorullo, which burns continually, and has thrown up upon one side an immense quantity of ashes and scoriaceous lava. These great eruptions of the central volcano continued without intermission till the month of February, 1760 ; but in the following years they became gradually less frequent. Great numbers of these small cones or ovens still continue to pour forth steam, and emit a subterranean noise, which appears to announce the proximity of a fluid in ebullition. According to the testimony of the Indians who were present at the catastrophe, the heat of these volcanic ovens has suffered a gradual diminution ; but Humboldt still found their temperature near that of boiling water. The surround ing atmosphere, too, was heated to such a degree, that, at a great distance from the surface, and in the shade, the ther mometer rose as high as 109 degrees of Fahrenheit. " This fact," our traveller remarks, " appears to prove that there is no exaggeration in the accounts of several old Indians, r who affirm, that, for many years after the interruption, the plains of Jorullo, even at a great distance from the scene of the explosion, were uninhabitable from the excessive heat which prevailed in them." The ashes of this eruption were scattered to the distance of one hundred and sixty miles. " The traveller is still shown, near the Cerro de Santa Ines, the rivers of Cusiamba and San Pedro, of which the limpid waters formerly irrigated the sugar plantation of Don Andre Pimentel. These streams disappeared in the night of the 29th of September, 1759; but at a distance of 6,560 feet farther west, in the tract which was the theatre of the con vulsion, two rivers are now seen bursting through the argilla ceous vault of the hornitos (ovens), of the appearance of mineral waters, in which the thermometer rises to 126 degrees Fahrenheit." The Indians continue to call these streams San Pedro and Cusiamba, because, in several parts of the volcanic ground, great masses of water are heard to run in a direction from east to west. We have here, then, a double phenomenon, the formation of the volcano itself, and that of a subterranean river : such, however, have been found in other regions of the globe. On this catastrophe Humboldt justly remarks, that an event " by which so considerable a tract of country entirely changed its appearance, is perhaps one of the most remark able physical revolutions in the annals of our globe. Geo logy indicates parts of the ocean where, within the last two thousand years, several small volcanic islands have been formed ; but it gi ves no other example of the formation, from the centre of a thousand burning cones, of a mountain of scoriae and ashes 1,695 feet above the level of the adjoin ing plain, upwards of thirty-six leagues from the sea, and forty-two leagues from every other active volcano." It is remarkable that this new volcano was formed in a direction parallel with the line, running east and west, in which all the elevated summits of the old volcanos is mentioned, found. And, in connection with this curious fact, it mentioned, that from the lake of Cuisco, in the same quarter of Mexico, which is impregnated with muriate of soda (common salt), and exhales sulphuretted hydrogen, to the city of Valladolid, an extent of forty square leagues, there are a great number of hot wells. From these indications of volcanic action in this particular region, Humboldt infers, that there probably exists here, at a great depth in the heart of the earth, a chasm, in a direction from east to west, and for a length of 137 leagues, alo ng w hi c h th e vo l can i c fi r e, bursting through the interior crust of the porphyritic rocks, has at different epochs made its appearance. The theory is plausible enough ; but, as yet, the subject of volcanoes is involved in much obscurity.—Chambers's Edinburgh Journal. The splendid file given on Thursday week by the Marquis of Westminster to the queen, it is said, cost 44000, STATE OF TRADE. MANCHESTER.—There has been no improvement in our market yesterday. Prices, both of goods and yarns, were lower than on the preceding Tuesday, and there was very lit tle business doing at the reduction. We are glad to find, however, that the increase in the rate of interest by the Bank of England has not had, and does not seem likely to have, any serious effect upon the trade of this neighbourhood. We believe the banks experience very little pressure for money, and credit, generally, remains good. In fact, there has been very little speculative business carried on in this neighbour hood for a long time past ; and the merchants and manu facturers have their engagements, generally, within moderate compass.—Guardian. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, JUNE 24. The demand for flannels still continues very brisk, and many pieces have been sold at last week's prices. The wool mar ket has been more than usually dull, but there is no change in the prices.—lbid. HUDDERSFIELD MARKET, JUNE 25TH.—A general gloom pervaded this market, 'consequently little business was done. In fact, the manufacturers bring so few desirable goods to the market, that there is little room for speculation. Most of the business is now done to order, so that the market day is by no means a criterion as to the state of trade ; and the fact that the operatives are generally employed, and the prices firm, indicates that considerable orders are in hand, especially for winter goods. The warehouses too continue well em ployed. Wools are looking up.—lbid. STATE OF TRADE.—The demand for gloves still continues brisk, and there is a fair demand for shipping goods. It is expected, now that confidence is entertained in the mainten ance of the prices of wools, that purchases will soon be made for the autumn trade. The stocks of home goods, we under stand, are comparatively small for this time of year.—Leices tershire Mercury. _ _ BLACKBURN.—The trade is at present more stagnant and fettered than it has been for a very considerable length of time past, and without the slightest prospect of any improve ment. The raw material, may ere long probably be reduced to its legitimate price, a probability founded upon the bad state of trade in all its trading branches, upon the short-time working which is becoming every week more general ; and also upon the Bank restriction system so lately resorted to. — Blackburn Standard. SELECT EXTRACTS. NITROUS OXIDE.—This gas was first breathed by Sir. Humphry Davy, and before that it was supposed to be totally unrespirable. It is now known that it does not extinguish life ; but I cannot too strongly caution all those who are at all subject to headaches, or in any other respect to a deter mination of blood to the head, not to make this experiment, as I have seen one instance, and heard of others, in which breathing it was followed by insensibility for a considerable period, rendering it doubtful whether or not the persons would recover. Nothing is more foolish, I think, than for any per son to make such experiment, without having some object more in view than the gratification of curiosity.—Brande'e Lectures at the Royal Institution. THE BALLOT.—Scarcely is any great virtue practised without some sacrifice ; and the admifation which virtue excites, seems to proceed from the contemplation of such sufferings, and of the exertions by which they are endured : a tradesman suffers some loss of trade by voting for his country ; is he not to vote ?—he might suffer some loss of blood in fighting for his country ; is he not to fight ? Every one would be a good Samaritan, if he was quite sure his compassion would cost him nothing. We should all be heroes, if it was not for blood and fractures ; all saints, if it were not for the restrictions and privations of sanctity ; all patriots, if it were not for the losses and misrepresentations to which patriotism exposes us. The ballotists are a set of Englishmen glowing with the love of England and the love of virtue, but determined to hazard the most dangerous ex periments in politics rather than run the risk of losing a penny in defence of their exalted feelings.—Rev. Sydney Smith on the Ballot. WHAT IS A " Loco Foco" ?—A loco foco, in the pre sent acceptation of the term, is a man not satisfied with any thing as it exists ; but in favour of an equal distribution of property, an uprooting of the institutions of the country, and substitution of some monstrous and impracticable fancy of his own in their stead. He professes to be in favour of " equal rights, equal privileges, and equal laws ;" by which he means rights, privileges, and laws, which will make him as rich, as influential, and as consequential, as his more in dustrious, prudent, able, persevering, and thriving neigh bours, without any particular talents or exertions of his own. A loco foco wants a new constitution: he desires that there should be no credits ; that all debts should be debts of honour • that no man should be superior to hi mse lf ; th a t we should have no medium of exchange but gold and silver ; that the whole form of society and government should be changed, and that they should have the privilege of concoct ing a better. He is a restless, unsatisfied mortal ; and could he have all his heart's desire to-day, he would grumble to _ morrow just as lustily as even—Utica (American) Observer • ST.'HELENA.—A VISIT TO LONGWOOD.—The farmhouse —or more properly speaking, Longwood House, the resi dence of Napoleon, is an old-fashioned looking place, view it in what light or situation you may, its appearance has nothing " to crack of." We entered a narrow, low ceilinged, ill light ed apartment, which was his billiard room, this led into one of smaller dimensions, which was his dining room, and in a corner of this the illustrious chieftain breathed his last. The marks are still remaining in the wall, where the pallet upon which he lay was fastened. In this room is now a machine for grinding corn ; and on it are written Messrs. this and that, with various remarks till in the mass of names, hardly one is discernable. It is astonishing, how indefatigable some persons have been in their endeavours to perpetuate their names, cutting them out in full, and chalking them in twenty different places ; and like the bill-stickers of the present age, posting their own over their predecessors. We left this room, and proceeded to the next, which our guide informed us was the library; but the windows were nearly all blocked up. We then entered the bedroom, and there were nistalled six or seven horses. The garden which once surrounded the house, and in which Napoleon passed most of his time, is now no more ; and the trees and flowers that once ornamented it, have like their master passed away. Napoleon had great plea sure in poultry, and his farmyard could boast of the choicest birds. These amusements however foreign this usual pur suits, were a great consolation to his else idle hours. It must have been an interesting sight, to witness the desolater rais ing the tender stem of a carnation, or dealing out food to his feathered dependants.—Leigh's Reconnoitring Voyage. FREAKS OF WEALTH.—The wealth which now exists in the town falls much short of what it was previous to the French revolution, or during the period of Dutch commercial preeminence. It was not long since, strangers, in visiting Amsterdam, were shown the spacious house of a merchant, who, after lavishing much on furniture and painting, actually caused the floor of one of his apartments to be laid with Spanish dollars, set on edge. Whims equally ridiculous for disposing of an overplus of wealth appear to have been far from uncommon in former times in Holland. A gentleman of my acquaintance, passing through Arnheim a few days ago, had his attention directed to an old fantasti ca l-l oo ki ng dwelling, concerning which he gathered the following histo rical reminiscence. The original owner was a Jew, and he erected the house out of pure reven-r b e. His coffers were so well replenished that he was at a loss how to employ his superflu ous cash : at last he hit upon a fanciful expedient. He de termined to make a pavement before his residence of large massive plates of silver, and to surround it with an orna mental chain of the same costly metal. Before carrying his plan into effect, it behoved him to obtain the sanction of the authorities. These worthies, however, void of sympathy, set their faces against a proposition which might have com pelled them to increase the strength of the town guard. Enraged at their non-compliance, Moses determined to punish them. He ordered his dwelling, situated in the prin cipal street, immediately to be pulled clown and on its site erected the one now standing. It is literally covered with diabolical figures, amounting, it is said, to 365.—Chambers's Continental Tour. ACCOMPLISHMENTS.—" And with respect to a great por tion of what are called accomplishments, my ever dear father informed me, and I believe it, that they are but differ ent branches of the art of making believe : which offer so little inducement to aim at excellence in them, that a suspi cious fear of other's bad faith renders the main body of what is called polished society, powerless, except in the way of evil example, and by which, together with other irregularities. imposed by, or connected with them, the accomplished are rendered the prey of too much mental discontent and bodily ailment ever to effect any thing worthy to be called a good purpose. The better part of prudence, therefore, so far as relates to the humble and unpretending, is to keep them selves, as much as possible, out of the power of the accom plished; and their safest enjoyments, industry, relieved by recreations, at once elegant, innocuous, inexpensive, and void of offence ; the means of which are to be found every where." "Do you consider singing, dancing, elegant attire, music, drawing, correct speaking, and engaging manners, generally," said Stella, "accomplishments, or only simple recreations, or the means of such ?" Maria said, that en tirely depended upon circumstances ; upon time, occasion, and so forth. If indulged in, or displayed at unseasonable hours, in loose company, or for the gratification of any low or slavish purpose, the whole was just so much pure and un mixed evil; but if, on the contrary, they were used in mo deration and in season, in company worthy to be honoured, or as relaxations from the more severe domestic or social duties, and made subservient to godlike ends, and therefore a part of our very religion, which is the perfection of good manners, they are undoubtedly accomplishments, and of an order worthy to be called the solaces, the graces, and orna ments of life." Stella said, she should endeavour, then, to make such good use of her visit to her dear friend, Maria, as to render it unnecessary that she should ever be sent to Miss Beauclerk's ; and added, that she was not before aware that the graces and ornaments of which they had been speak ing had any connexion with religion. She had always thought they were becoming in the rich and powerful only, who always appeared to consider religion as a very gloomy subject. Maria said, that was a great mistake ; for the Al mighty had poured out before us, in the greatest profusion, all the elegances of form and sound, and scent, and colour ; and had spoken to us at all times in the language of a living, a loiring, a refined, and a holy poetry, over the whole face of nature—of which language the poorest human being, if kindly and fairly treated, would have as devout a sense and relish as a duke. It behoved all persons, therefore, profess ing to be Christians, to manifest by their actions a willing and cheerful attention to their duties, to cultivate the elegances and refinements connected with them, and thus to endeavour to rescue their religion from those gloomy associa tions with which they, whose selfish dread of losing their im portance in this world, without being prepared to obey the call, and to abide the trial for passing into another and a better, have too long been endeavouring to connect it.— Floreston, or the New Lord of the Manor. THE THUGS, OR SECRET MURDERERS OF INDIA. — The Thug associations which the Indian government are now engaged in suppressing, have been taught by those whom they revere as the expounders of the will of their deity, that the murders they perpetrate are pleasing to her, provided they are perpetrated under certain restrictions, attended by certain observances, and preceded and followed by certain rites, sacri fices, and offerings. The deity who, according to their belief, guides and protects them, is ever manifesting her will by signs, and so long as they understand and observe these signs, they 11 consider themselves as acting in conformity to her will, and consequently fulfilling her wishes and designs. On all occasions and in all situations, they believe these signs to be available if sought after in a pure spirit of faith, and with the prescribed observances, and as long as they are satisfied that they are truly interpreted and faithfully, obeyed, they never feel any dread of punishment either in this world, or in the next. The circles of society in which these assassins by pro fession live and move, are conciliated by their lavish expendi ture of the booty they acquire on their aunual excursions, and by that amiable deportment which they find necessary to enable them to win the confidence of their victims while abroad, and which they continue to preserve at home, where they are commonly the most scrupulous in the discharge of their du ties in all relations of life, the most liberal promoters of all aocial enjoyment, and the most rigid observers of everything relating to caste and religion. In such circles, the dreadful trade of murder by which they earn their incomes, even when known, or suspected, as it commonly is, hardly ever makes them odious, for the want of sympathy between men of differ ent castes, or different places of abode is unhappily, the grand characteristic of Indian society, and as long as these assasins forbear to murder in and about the places where they reside, and conciliate or keep in ignorance the local police authori ties, they are sure of being cherished as among the dearest members of society. In some cases the village communities among which they live, and. the local authorities in native states, have a notion that they are under supernatural influ ence, and dread the consequences of being made in any way instrumental to their punishment.--.Ba7naseeana, by Major 1-1. K. Steam. WIRE-DRAWING.—When, for very accurate purposes of science or the arts, a considerable length of uniform wire is to be drawn, a plate with one or more jewelled holes, that is, filled with one or more perforated rubies, sapphires, or chry solites, can alone be trusted to, because the holes even in the best steel become rapidly wider by the abrasion. Through a hole in a ruby 0.0033 of an inch in diameter, a silver wire 170 miles long has been drawn, which possessed at the end the very same section as at the beginning ; a result determined by weighing portions of equal length, asalso measuring it with a micrometor. The hole in an ordinary plate of soft steel be comes so wide, by drawing 14,000 fathoms of brass wire, that it requires to be narrowed before the original sized wire can be obtained.—Dr. Ure's Dictionary of Arts. INGENUITY or BEES.—A large brown slug made its way into a glass hive, where the operations of the bees could be distinctly seen. Having killed the slug, and finding that they were unable to get it out of the hive, they covered it over with the thick resinous substance called propolis, and thus prevented its becoming a nuisance to the colony. Into the same hive one of the common brown-shelled snails also gained admittance. Instead of embedding it in propolis, the bees contented themselves with fixing it to the bottom of the hive, by plastering the edge with that substance. I have now in my possession a regular fortification made of propolis, which one of my stock of bees placed at the entrance of their hive, to enable them the better to protect themselves from the attacks of wasps. By means of this fortification, a few bees could effectually guard the entrance, by lessening the space of admission, which I had neglected to do for them.— Jesse's Gleanings f Natural History. STATISTICS OF THE LONDON AND BIRMINGHAM RAlL WAY.—Thirteen miles of the railway are laid level—fifty-two at an inclination varying from one foot to fourteen in a mile —and forty-seven at inclinations varying between fourteen and sixteen feet per mile. The greatest difference of level between any two parts of the line is three hundred and eighty feet ; the gradients change forty-four times. The longest continued length of level rails is about four miles ; the greatest extent of any gradient is seven miles and a half; but there is an inclination in one direction, varying from one gradient to another, measuring fourteen miles. From London to Bir mingham fifty-five miles ascend, forty-four descend, and thirteen are level. The land occupied by the railway and sta tions may be estimated at nearly two thousand acres.—His tory of the London and Birmingham Railway. REAING ALOUD.—One of the accomplishments which we wish to see cultivated among females, and which is greatly neglected or wholly overlooked, is the art of reading aloud. It is a most healthy employment when used discreetly, since exercise is as advantageous to the lungs as to all other parts of the human frame. The ability to read aloud agreeably is also a truly domestic acquirement ; it will be another link in the chain which binds men to their hearths ; it will amuse the young, cheer the old and instruct the ignorant. —Journal of Education. GAS-LIGHT.—The earliest application of this artificiallight, on a large systematic scale, was made at Manchester, where an apparatus for lighting the great cotton mills of Messrs. Phillips and Lee was fitted up, in 1804 and 1805, under the direction of Mr. Murdock. A quantity of light, nearly equal to 3000 candles, was produced and distributed in the building. This splendid pattern has been since followed very generally in Great Britain, and more or less in many parts of the con tinents of Europe and America. By the year 1822, gas lighting in London had become the business of many public companies. In 1822 there were four great companies, having in all 47 gas-ometers at work, capable of containing 917,940 cubic feet of gas, supplied by 1315 retorts, which generated per annum upwards of 397,000,000 cubic feet of gas, by which 61,203 private lamps, and 7,268 public or street lamps, were lighted in the metropolis. Besides these public companies, there were likewise several private ones.—Dr. Ure's Dictio nary of Arts. FACTS IN TYPE FOUNDING.—A good type foundry is always provided with several furnaces, each surmounted with an iron pot containing the melted alloy, of three parts of lead and one of antimony. Into this pot the founder dips the very small iron ladle, to lift merely as much metal as will cast a single letter at a time. Having poured in the mettle with his right hand, and returned the ladle to the melting pot, the founder throws up his left hand, which holds the mould, above his head, with a sudden jerk, supporting it with his right hand. It is this movement which forces the metal in the interstices of the matrix; for without it the metal, especially in the smaller moulds, would not be able to expel the air and reach the bottom. The pouring in the metal, the throwing up the mould, the unclosing it, remov ing the pressure of the spring, picking out the cast letter, closing the mould again, and reapplying the spring to be ready for a new operation, are all performed with such as tonishing rapidity and precision, that a skilful workman will turn out 500 good letters in an hour, being at the rate of one , every eighth Part of a minute. A considerable piece of metal remains attached to the end of the type as it quits the mould. There are nicks upon the lower edge of the types, to enable the compositor to place them upright without looking at them.—Dr. lire's Dictionary of Arts. CIGAR MAKING IN SEVILLE.—The most extraordinary sight in the Fabrica de Tabaco is a room, or rather four con nected rooms, about an immense square court, where three thousand women and girls are daily employed in twisting cigars. It is not saying much for Sevilian beauty, that I looked in vain amongst this vast number for one that was beautiful, pretty, or even interesting in appearance. I never beheld such an assemblage of ugliness. As Juanico well expressed it, " Venus passed by their doors at the time of their birth, and would not even glance within." The young female superintendent was the only exception—the only one who did not disgrace the city of Donna Julia. Each woman can twist 10 or 12 bundles of cigars a day, each bundle con taining fifty-one cigars, or five ounces of tobacco. There are 600 men similarly employed, each twisting 14 or 16 bundles daily. The various other workmen in the establishment amount to 200. The daily wages of the whole are above 1000 dollars, or nearly £250. This is a little world in itself. Every article wanted is made within its walls—tin-chests, sacks, baskets—nay, even the wheels of the carts in which the tobacco is conveyed to and from the Fabrica—have all separate manufactortes.—A Summer in Andalucia. A HINT TO CIGAR SMOKERS.—A gentleman entered a stage coach where there was only a lady with a sneezing can cery-nosed Dutch pug dog on her lap, which soon becoming troublesome and offensive, to him, he proposed very politely to give it outside to the guard ; but he could not prevail on her to part with the " dear darling." Therefore, at length coming to a town where a market was held, he, while the horses were changing, finding a number of pigs close at hand, ordered a large dirty sow to be brought to the door of the coach, which was opened, and had her fore legs reared on the steps as if to put her in, on which the lady most furiously remonstrated, while be pleaded the same right of accommo dation for an inside place for his sow as she for her pug ; the lady all the time most hysterically kicking to resist the en trance till a compromise took place, for the dog to be handed over to the guard, provided the pig was discarded. This done, the gentleman got in, and all went on well between them to the end of pheir journey, although the lady had been as difficult to convince of the impropriety of the propensity as your smokers ; she acknowledged her error, and ever after left pug at home. If smokers are equally impressed and ac commodating, the public will be essentially benefited by it. THE INFLUENCE OF WEALTII.—The radicals (I do not use this word in any offensive sense, for I know many honest and excellentmen of this way of thinking), but the radicals praise and admit the lawful influence of wealth and power. They are quite satisfied if a rich man of popular manners gains the votes and affections of his dependants ; but why is not this as bad as intimidation? The real object is to vote for the good politician, not for the kind-hearted or agreeable man : the mischief is just the same to the country whether I am smiled into a corrupt choice, or frowned into a corrupt choice. What is it to me whether my landlord is the best of landlords or the most agreeable of men ? I must vote for Joseph _Hume, if I think Joseph more honest than the Mar quis. The mere mitigated radicals may Pass over this, but the real carniverous variety of these politicians should de claim as loudly against the fascinations as against the threats of the great. The man who possesses the land should never speak to the man who tills it. The intercourse between landlord and tenant should be as strictly guarded as that of the sexes in Turkey. A funded duenna should be placed over every landed grandee. And then intimidation ! Is intimidation confined to the aristocracy ? Can anything be more scandalous and atrocious than the intimidation of mobs ? Did not the mob of Bristol occasion more ruin, wretched ness, death, and alarm, than all the ejection of tenants, and combinations against shopkeepers, from the beginning of the century? and did not the Scotch philosophers tear off the clothes of the tones in Mintoshire ? or at least such clothes as the customs of the country admit of being worn ?—and did not they, without any reflection at all upon the customs of the country, wash the tory voters in the river ?—Rev. Sydney Smith on the Ballot. In Kilkenny the barley crops are in full ear. Lord and Lady Francis Egerton left Bridgewater House on Friday last for Oatlands, their seat in Surrey, where the noble lord and lady are entertaining a select party. On Sabbath a married woman, while attending divine ser vice in one of the parish churches of Greenock, fell down in the pew, and instantly expired. She went to church quite well in health.—Scottisle Guardian. SINGULAR PRESERVATION OF POTATOES.—Two potatoes were recently found by a workman, on the premises of Mr. Copestake, baker, Derby, under a pavement that had not been disturbed for 34 years. They were quite sound, and co vered with rubbish and lime about two feet deep. We understand that the ancient fashion, of attorneys wear ing gowns, is being revived amongst the metropolitan prac titioners, and it is anticipated that the fashion will soon become general amongst the professors of the law ; there is also a rumour that the judges on circuit will intimate to the profession, that they are expected to appear in court in gowns. London Paper. [Very likely indeed !] It is expected that a promotion will take place in the navy on the anniversary of the coronation, which will include the remainder of the post captains of 1806, &c. ; and. also that colonels of the army of the same year as the last-made ma jor-generals, and who were lieutenant-colonels in 1831, will be promoted, most of these officers having been in the service from 40 to 48 years! BEER ACT.-It appears, from a return which has just been made to the House of Lords, that the number of petitions presented to that house against the Beer Act during this ses sion and in the years 1837 and 1838, from magistrates in quarter sessions, magistrates in petty sessions, boards of guardians, inhabitants of parishes and towns, and bodies of individuals, was 211, of which 24 were for the revision of the act. On Wednesday William Milroy, a private in the sth Dra eon Guards, who was quartered at the 'White Swan, St. Peter's-street, Derby, having been - threatened by his ser leant that he should report him, loaded his pistol with the intent, as he said, to blow his hand off, but was prevented by one of his comrades, who wrested the pistol from him. He afterwards became more cairn, and retired, as he said, to bed ; his comrades having taken the precaution of securing all the other fire-arms. He had not been up stairs long when a noise was heard, which induced them to follow him, when they met him coming down with two of the fingers of his left hand nearly severed from it, done with his sword which they had not thought of removing. He has been removed to Not tingham to be tried by a court-martial.—Derby Reporter. CHALLI PRINTING, &c.—An act of parliament has just passed for the protection of printed patterns on articles made of linen, cotton, wool, silk, or hair, or of any of these ma terials mixed ; hich act is of great importance to the manu facturers of this city. Hitherto the protection has extended only to articles made either of cotton or linen •, and conse quently the splendid patterns printed on the rich and costly fabrics made in Norwich could be copied on a calico worth only 4d. a yard with impunity. Under this act, if a pattern be copied within three months, the party copying is not only subject to a heavy penalty, but an injunction can at once be obtained, preventing the sale of the goods ; or, if any pre viously sold, the parties will have to render an account of the profits upon such sale.—Norwich Mercury. A MAN SHOT IN MISTAKE FOR A DEER.—An inquest was held on Friday the 14th inst. at the Greyhound Inn. En field, before H. Sawyer, Esq. coroner, on the body of James West, one of the sons of a respectable gardener, living at Enfield Wash, who was unfortunately shot the preceding day, in mistake for a deer, by Benjamin Knott, a young farmer, residing on the Chase. It appeared that a stra7 deer had for some days past been repeatedly seen, and that several young men had been out with their guns in search of it. On the day in question, young Knott went out with the intent of killing the animal ; he was accompanied by a boy and dog. Unfortunately the deceased had gone to an adjoining field to show a boy a blackbird's nest, when Knott, perceiving something moving under the hedge which he believed to be the deer, shot the poor young man instantly dead, The jury, after visiting the spot to satisfy their minds, returned a virdict of " Accidental deatt,"-on4 20s, deodand on tlie'gtua, /Word lifformer, 01)tpping Enttlitgente.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 27. The demand has been limited throughout the week, and prices lid to id lower than on Friday, with a dull market and very little doing. The import since Friday exceeds 85,000 bales. LIVERPOOL CORN E X CHANGE, JUNE 25. During the past week we have had an abundance of rain, and the weather has been very seasonable in all respects; in consequence of which, and the pressure in pecuniary matters, although the imports have been very small for home use, we have experienced very dull sales here and in all our country markets for every article in the Corn trade, at barely the prices last quoted, and, in some instances, a small reduction has been submitted to. The duty on all Grain from foreign ports continues this week the same as last. It is likely it will be increased 3s on Wheat, and de creased is 6d per quarter on Oats next Friday. The sales of bonded Flour and Oats, for export, have been very trivial since our last, at about the prices then quoted. At this day's market we have had a thin attendance, and sales were effected to a very moderate extent; the millers and dealers appearing unwilling to purchase but for their immediate wants. Some parcels of good hard and of inferior soft foreign Wheat were pressed off at a decline of 2d to 3d per lb. and although we cannot decidedly alter our, last quotations for the fine qualities of Wheat and Flour, purchases might have been made at a small reduction, on almost every article in the trade.

The best Beef realised 7d, second quality 63d, with some of an ordinary de scription at a shade less. Good Wether Mutton sold at ti/d second ditto, at 63d, ordinary and Fwes 63d, and Lambs from 70 to ad per lb. sinking the offal. Number of Cattle at market—Beasts 1074, Sheep and Lambs 9373.
