Vottrp. THE PARTING SONG OF THE EMIGRANTS. ET JAMES STON-EHOUSE. (From the South Australian Miscellany.) Oh! speed not thus swift sailing bark, And breeze not now our canvas fill : While yet one glimpse of yonder The ling'ring daylight leaves us still! For we may never see again Ton fast receding blessed strand — Our homes are many miles. away From our own beauteous Mother-land ! When wand'ring through tk' Australian wilds, Or sailing o'er the Southern Sea, Shall we forget those gentle ties That binds us, Mother-land, to thee ? Tho' from thy shores we sadly rove, And feel we are a pilgrim band, Yet in our souls there still must dwell Sweet thoughts of thee, dear Mother-land! Can we forget the vallies calm, Thy forests wild and tow'ring hills ; Thy fertile plains and sunny fields ; Thy rolling floods and chrystal rills? Shall we hom mem'ry coldly chace Thy landscapes, blest by nature's hand ? Where'er our dwelling place may be, We still must love thee, Mother-land! When in the distant woods we kneel, With thankful hearts on Sabbath day; Shall we forget the holy spires, Where we were taught in youth to pray? Aitho' within some leafy nook Our humble face may meekly stand : Thy name in prayer shall blended be, Oh! well remember'd Mother-land! Then speed not thus swift bounding hark, And breeze not now our canvas fill ; While yet one glimpse of yonder isle, The ling'ring daylight leaves us still: Night closes now—and all is gone— Yet see where burns a glowing brand— The light-house shines i—a bright farewell Thou liidst thy children, Mother-land I ECCLESIASTICAL AND UNIVERSITY INTELLIGENCE.

LEEDS.—We hare had a fair demand for goods since our last, principally heavy winter cloths. For the fine qualities there was very little request, either on Saturday or Tuesday ; of course, in the wool market, the finer sorts were dull of sale, but we can quote no variation in the price. —Leeds Intelliyencer. BRADFORD MARKET.--The market here, on Thursday, presented little variation from that of last week, and there was nothing worthy of observation either with regard to wool, yarn or manufactured goods.—lbid. DRVISDDRY.—There was an improved demand for goods in the Blanket and Shoddy Hall here, on Monday, especially for blankets, but the transactions in paddings very little ex ceeded those of last week.—lbid. WAKEFIELD WOOCNIARKET, OCT. 4.—The scarcity of deep combining Wools mentioned in our last report still continues, and, if possible, is still more felt than last week ; the heavy pressure of the money market has, however, hi, therto prevented any improvement in price. Short Wools are in rair demand at late quotations.—lbid. KEN DAL.—The fancy trade of this town is, generally speak ing, in a dull state at present ; this change may be attributed to the alteration from the manufacture of goods for the win ter season, for those in demand for spring—and has caused a number of hands to be waiting. The linsey business, how ever, is going on well—this is properly a brisk season for the trade, and all hands are fully employed; as it is chiefly for home consumption there is more stability in it than the fancy business, and it is not subject to the same fluctuation as the latter. We understand that the woollen weavers of Messrs. Braithwaithe, in Highgate, struck for an advance of wages lately. The men say they hat e been working at a considera bly less rate of wages than other manufacturers are paying for the some fabric of goods, and testify their willingness to return to their wurk, as soon as their masters are willing to pay the same rate of wages as the other manufacturers, which at present is refused.—Kendal Gazette. Duaaw TRADE.—There has been very little business done here in flax or linens for the last-fortnight, and what transactions have taken place have been at a reduction from our last quotations. Prices of flax abroad remain stationary. At St. Petersburgh, small qu entities of old 12 and 9 head had been disposed of at IV. 118 and 105, and some new 9 head at Ro. 92=to £32 Is. Id. per ton, free on board. At Archangel freights had advanced considerably, 70s. having been granted for flax. In consequence of an advance in the price of hemp in the London market, that article is held firmer in our market, and our merchants anticipate an ad ♦ance, £33 having been paid in London for half-clean. 100 tons of fine flax have been purchased here for Portugal within these few days. Yarns are still in limited demand ; but as there has been less spinning of late, stocks are not accumulating. Prices of linens are a shade lower, although some descriptions are getting rather scarce—Dundee Courier. DRATH OF LORD AND LADY SUTHKRLAND.—At Bath, the Earl was attacked with a putrid fever, with which he struggled fifty-four days, and then expired. His Countess, having watched in his chamber twenty-one nights and days, without intermission, sunk an unavailing victim to an amiable, but excessive attachment, seventeen days before the death of her lord, in her twenty-fifth year : his lordship was thirty one. They left an infant daughter, Lady Elizabeth, the late Duchess Countess of Sutherland, who died, February, 1839. A very remarkable circumstance aggravated this bereavement. Lady Sutherland's mother, Lady Alva, knew nothi ng o f th e death of her daughter, and only that of his lordship was communicated to her. Whilst Lady Alva was hastening to the assistance of her daughter, she happened to alight from her carriage at an inn on the road to Bath, where she saw Iwo hearses standing. Upon inquiring whose remains they contained, she was told they were those of Lord and Lady Sutherland, on their way to Scotland for interment.—Coun less of Huntingdon's Life and Times, 2 vols. THANK GOD WE HAVE A 1101ISK OF LORDS.—The whole, or nearly the whole legislative power, is transferred from the lower to the upper house. T o th e l ords' house it is, and not to their own, that the people turn their faces. On the pro ceedings in our chamber the eyes of the country are fixed; to the plain decisive judgment of our house, not to the vacillating, uncertain, half-whispered, half-muttered sounds which escape the commons, it is that the people of England give ear. In our house is carried on the business of the government of these realms, notwithstanding all the ad vantages which a representative capacity, a popular delegation, the power of the purse, the sole privilege of uttering the magical word " Money," confer upon our sister assembly ; and as the miserable impotency of legislation with which she is stricken becomes daily more apparent, or at least the wretched condition of the few rickety productions which she from time to time contrives to bring forth, in the intervals of her cowtaut abortions, is dipluyed to excite amazement, while they sue for pity, and are occasionally saved by us from perishing, the impression has now become universal, even in the lower house itself, that the lords, with all their faults, are an absolutely indispensible portion of the con stitution, if, indeed, they are now for the present the real lawgivers and rulers of the empire. —Lord Brougham's Letter to the Duke of Bec(ford. A VISIT TO VAUXHALL.. — In the evening we visited a large garden, beautifully lighted up, and the fireworks that we saw here made us forget all others we had already seen. A garden, a heaven, large, adorned with roses of different colours in every direction, the water was running on the beautiful green, pictures were drawn on every wall. Here and there were young moonly faces selling refreshments. There were burning in this place about two millions of lights, each giving a different colour ; the lanterns and lights were so arranged, as to make poetry in such a manner that they have no end. On every side there appeared the moon, and the sun, with the planet, each moving in its orbit ; and in every walk there were about 10,000 Frank moons (that is, English !ad.es) walking and gazing about, where the roses and their tribes were admiring their beautiful cheeks. Each was taken by the hand ; such a company in such a place says to the soul, Behold thy Providence !—pleasure and joy ap pear ; woes and sorrows are banished ;--every hand asked for a glass of refreshment to present to the possessors of jasmine hands. Thus we were happy to have in each hand a Paradi sean companion, and to point out the beauties of the place, in order to draw forth the sweet music of their replies ; we left the rose, and met a pink ! are we awake or in a dream ? W e walked in this garden from one place to another, till we c ame to a plate where we saw crowds of people gazing at a boy, elegantly clad, who was playing on a rope ; now we were as though we had lot cur mind. This rope was made fast high above in the garden, on which this boy was dancing ; indeed, he was like a bird with w i ngs i n t h e air. Afterwards a young and beautiful girl, handsomely dressed, increased our surprise, she joined the hoy, and they played together in the most wonderful manner, enough to take away the senses to look at them. When the boy and girl had finished their mancenvret, the people in the garden went to another place, where there was a wheel which was set on fire. As soon as it was lighted, it began to ascend, throwing out fire, and continued to ascend till it reached the sky.----Journal of Priitcs Meow (use of the Persian Prince.) in England. MURDER OF A WOMAN BY HER HUSBAND, AND SUICIDE OF THE MURDERER. It this week falls to our lot to lay before our readers the details of one of the most distressing and shocking occur rences which is to be found in the annals of crime,—an oc currence, the bare thought of which cannot but impart a feel ing of terror and dismay to every mind. As soon as we heard of the circumstance, we took pains to obtain the fullest parti culars of the barbarous and bloody tragedy. On Thursday evening last the villages of Raiford and Tarleton and the neighbourhood were thrown into a state of intense dread and consternation, by the report that a man named Robert Dawson, a labourer, in the employ of Sir T. I). Hesketh, Bart., of Rufford Hall, had murdered his wife, Phoebe Dawson, and had afterwards put an end to his own existence. The report, unhappily, proved too true, as the following circumstantial particulars of the tragical event will show. The wretched man resided, with his wife and five of his children, in a cottage, in the hamlet of Holmes Wood, in the parish of Rufford, about twelve miles from Preston. On the evening in question, Dawson came home about nine o'clock when his wife was undressed, prepared to go to bed, all the children at home being at the time asleep, in a bed adjoining the one in which Dawson and his wife usually slept. He enquired for some senna, which he had requested her to send for to Ormskirk, by a neighbour, and on her acquaint ing him that she had forgotten to send for it, high words, and ultimately a violent quarrel ensued. From the appearance of the wounds, and other circumstances, it is highly probable that there had been, on the part of the wife, stout resistance, and that a severe struggle took place. before the wretched murderer accomplished his horrid purpose. It is most likely, indeed, that they had been quarrelling, and perhaps fighting, for some time, and that the husband had somewhat gradually worked himself up to a state of infuriated rage, nothing short of madness.—The children were awakened by the scuffle, and they gave an alarm, when a sister of the murderer entered the house, followed immediately by other persons, relations and neighbours of the deceased. When these persons enter ed, which was about half-past nine o'clock, they were affrighted by the horrid spectacle of both husband and wife walking about in the kitchen or " house" part, with their throats cut. Dawson, alarmed, it is supposed, at his wife's approaching end, a :d his own wound not being sufficiently deep to cause death, . escaped during the consternation and went immediately and hanged himself in the shippon adjoining the house, with a cow tie. When Mr. Barron, surgeon, of Tarieton, arrived shortly afterwards, the woman was not quite dead. She was per fectly sensible, knew her relations and friends, and told her mother that the quarrel was simply on account of her not having sent for the medicine to Ormskirk. The poor crea ture asked for something to drink, and some water was given to her, but as not only the windpipe was cut, but also the passage to the stomach opened, the water ruu out of the aperture down her neck, The bed on which she lay was completely saturated with blood, and there were several cuts on her chin, and on the lower part of her thrc at, inflicted, it is supposed, in the course of the struggle, anti before the mortal wound was given. Her right eye was also black, and much swollen as if from a blow. Search being made for Dawson, the miserable man was found suspended in the out house, as already mentioned, and quite dead. The age of the man was about 37, and that of his ill-fated wife about 40. They have left behind them 7 children, the eldest of whom is a girl about 16 years old, and the age of the youngest is about 18 months. The unfortunate woman was at the time in a state of pregnancy. They had resided all their lives in the neigbourhood, the father and mother of Dawson occupy ing a farm near the cottage in which the appalling tragedy occurred. Dawson has also 5 brothers and 2 sisters. The mother of the murdered woman lives in the neighbourhood. She has left 6 brothers and 3 sisters. Her father (whose name was Caunce) was killed about two years ago, at Rufford, by falling from a cart. The unfortunate couple had previously borne good characters, and she is spoken of by her neigh bours as having been a woman of a very mild and patient dis position. Dawson was a favourite servant with Sir T. D. Hesketh, Bart. as a proof of which, we may state, that when a short time ago, he was sick, he was visited by the worthy baronet, and although he had an allowance from an Odd Fellows' Society, of which he was a member, Sir Thomas kindly paid him his wages during the whole period of his sick ness. He was an active member of the Wesleyan Method ists' Society, and had frequent prayer meetings at his house. He had also been, for about two years, a member of a tem perance society. They had as his wife had recently asserted to a friend, lived very comfortly for the last six or seven years ; but we are informed that at the early period of their matri monial career they had frequent quarrels, and were supposed to live very unhappily. The neighbours do not speak of the murderer as having been a passionate man, nor was he at any time subject to insanity or melancholy. An inquest will be held on the bodies this day at Mr. Worthington's, Hesketh Arms, Rufford, before Mr. Palmer, coroner. We understand that the bodies of the ill-fated pair are to be interred on Sun day next, at Rufford. The transaction, as may well be im agined, has excited an intensely painful sensation throughout the whole neighbourhood, and scarcely anything else is talked about.—Preston Chronicle. THE STEAM WHISTLE. The following recommendation, with a view to prevent those accidents frequently occurring in consequence of the collision of steam-vessels, is given in the report made by Parliamentary Commissioners appointed to investigate this and other subjects:— _ _ " A distinjuishing sound should be provided on board steam-vessels as an alarm, to notice their proximity to other vessels at night, on these occasions, but more particularly during fog or thick weather, when lights can only be seen on a very near approach. The want of such regulation is al luded to by several of our correspondents, and a means is also suggested for accomplishing the end. Sailing-vessels are generally provided with some instrument for making a noise, to which resort is had when circumstances require it —viz. bells, horns, gongs, &c. A steam-vessel carries with it an agent more powerful than any of these contrivances, and which could not fail in noticing its approach, distinctively from every other class of vessel, and from a much greater distance than bells, &c.—a circumstance of no slight conse quence, when the greater velocity of a steamer is considered. The steam whistle in common use attached to locomotive engines if applied to the boiler of a steam-vessel, would com pletely fulfil the desired end. All that is required is a small pipe opening into the steam-chest, and brought on deck, with the whistle on the top of it, in a convenient position to be used when the commander may order it. By simply turning the handle of a cock, a prolonged sound is produced, or a succession of sounds, on opening and shutting the cock at short intervals. The sound from the whistle of a locomotive engine has frequently been heard more than two miles. We have made particular inquiries as to the degree of sound pro ducible with low pressure, compared with high pressure steam, and learn this whistle may be constructed so as to be equally as effective with the one as with the other. NEW LOCOMOTIVE ENGINE. Messrs. Peel, Williams, and Peel, of Soho Iron Works, Ancoats, have recently turned their attention to the manu facture of locomotive engines, for railroads ; and on Wed nesday trial was made of their first engine, on the Liverpool and Manchester line. It is appropriately named the " Soho," and in point of external finish and appearance, greatly excels any we have previously seen. The dimensions of its princi pal parts are as follows :—diameter of working wheels, sft. 6 in.; ditto of cylinders, 11 in. ; length of stroke, 1 ft. 6 in. ; number of tubes 85, and the other parts in proportion. The general form and disposition of the parts of this engine resemble those of the Liverpool and Manchester and Grand Junction lines ; the only difference being in the mode of working the valves. There are no eccentrics, but in place of them two sur wheels of equal diameter placed immediately over them, and running in a frame supported by the crank axle, so as to preserve the distance between the centres con stantly the same and unaffected by the motion of the engine on its springs. The wheels last mentioned are attached to a short valve or shaft, carrying at each end a small crank arm, which drives a connecting rod attached to the valve spindle. There is likewise a very important and creditable improvement in the construction of the striking lever for reversing the motion, which we are unable to describe intel ligently without the aid of a drawing. The results of the experiments on Wednesday, during a trip from Manchester to Liverpool, with the nine A. As., first class train, consisting of seven carriages, each weighing five tons, are thus re ported to Mr. Edward Woods, the superintendent engineer: Weather very wet. A strong heachwind from the west ward. Water in tender cold. Consumption of coke Ditto per ton per mile upon the load ......

Previous to this experiment, the " Soho" had been running a fortnight with passengers on the Liverpool. and Manchester line, and during that time Mr. Woods in forms us, " no fp-ilure has taken place, and the trains have usually been-lAbught in before their time." These results must be as satisfactory as they are creditable to Messrs. Peel, and we are glad to find that their spirit and enterprise have met with such distinguished success.—Manch. Courier. HAYM &KING IN OCTOBER.—On a journey to the agricul tural meeting at Lytham, from Poulton, on Tuesday last, our correspondent's attention was called to a few haymakers be tween Singleton and Weeton, who were busily engaged in breaking out the cocks of hay grass, in a field, on the road side. We should think it unprecedented in this part of the country, at so late a period of the year.—Prestou Pilot. PROLIFIC ROOT OF POTATOES.—On Monday last one of the servants of Mr. W. Bamber, of Grcat Eccleston, found at one root the enormous quantity of 181 potatoes, and mea suring rather more than a bushel. They were grown in the garden attached to Mr. Ember's house. The man states that he had considerable difficulty in placing his fork in such a position as to overturn the root in consequence of it extend ing over such a large space of ground.—lbid. THE LOST CHILD ; A YOUTH OF MANY FISFORTUNES.— On Saturday last, a little boy of the age of five years, acom partied his father, Mr. Richard Mawdesley, of Longton, to Preston. On their arrival in town, the father left the son in a grocer's shop, giving him strict injunctions not to stir from the place till his return. It seems, however, that the tempting stores of sugar and raisins, which on every hand presented themselves to the little fellow's eyes, were not suf ficient to induce him to stay in the shop, and he, therefore, began his tour in quest of further novelty. On the return of the father his child was no where to be found, and after many anxious inquiries and fruitless searches in almost every part of Preston, the distressed parent returned home late in the evening, with feelings which may be more easily imagined than described. After a sleepless night, the father early on Sunday morning set out to Preston, but no tidings could he learnt of his lost one until the afternoon, when some attend ants on a funeral from Garstang, brought a letter to the Bell-man. announcing that the little wanderer was safely en sconced at the Shovel and Broom in that town. A horse and gig were quickly on the road, and in a short time Mr. M. clasped the juvenile pilgrim to his heart. It appears that the child had strolled down to the canal, and followed the towing path. When two miles from Garstang, the master of the packet boat heard his lamentations (for darkness was fast closing upon him), and halting the fly-boat acquainted them of the circumstance. They accordingly took him up and brought him to Garstang, where he met with every kind ness and attention from the worthy people of the Shovel and Broom. The life of this youth has hitherto been pregnant with imminent peril and hair-breadth escapes. On a former occasion, his restless and wandering propensity lost him to his parents a day and a night, in Chorley ; he has had his thigh broken ; and has been once all but drowned in a deep ditch ; and he has scarcely recovered from being nearly scalded to. death. He is after all his misfortunes sound wind, limb, and eye sight, ready to encounter new disasters. —Preston Chronicle. ANOTHER OF THE• QUEEN'S SUITORS. SINGULAR LETTERS TO HER MAJESTY, THE DUCHESS OF KENT, &C. At the Kensington Petty Sessions, on Wednesday last, a man, about 30 years of age, attired in a blue coat, with trou sers and waistcoat of broad tartan plaid, a sunburnt counte nance, and rich brickdust-coloured whiskers, applied for advice to Mr. Pilkington, the sitting magistrate, under the following circumstances : He said his name was James Bryan, and that he was a native of Crouchley, in Ayrshire. He had some time since taken an empty room, at the house No. 8, - Sutton-street, Kensington, which he had quitted in debt, to the amount of 13s 6d, about three weeks since, when he made out a list of things which he left behind, at a valuation, to be taken by the landlord. He had also left some things over and above the valuation, which he had left in the care of the landlady until he came back ; but he then found the first articles had been sold at a certain price, and the others were detained to make up the deficiency which had arisen. Among those were some valuable papers of a secret nature, and some prints of great value. Inspector Smith, of the T division, producing a bundle of manuscripts, which, he said, had been handed over to him by Mrs. Stewart, the landlady of the house in which the ap plicant had resided, informed the worthy magistrate that the secret papers Bryan spoke about were copies of letters which he had addressed to her Majesty, the Duchess of Kent, Lord Melbourne, &c., professing an intense affection for the Queen, and advising her Majesty as to the government of the coun try, and the state of affairs in general. Mr. Pilkington, having examined the papers, asked the applicant if those were the important papers he had been speaking of? Bryan replied that they were ; they were private docu ments, and ought not to be made public. Mr. Pilkington.—Some of them are, I see, addressed to the Queen. Do you mean that letters, of which these are copies, have been forwarded to her and the other parties named ? Bryan.—They have all been forwarded and received by the parties. I have got the letters to the Queen's own hands. I am known to many of them. I did not think my secret papers would be made public. I could show you a great deal if I was to go to the bottom of it. I am not touched (pointing to his head), as you may suppose. I am perfectly sane. Ido love the Queen, and always shall. Mr. Pilkington.—You have been carrying on a very high correspondence, and, as those documents are of great im portance in your estimation, you wish, I suppose, to regain their possession. Inspector Smith said he did not know how far he . should be justified, from their peculiar nature, in returning the pa pers to Bryan. Ilc thought he must submit them to the no tice of the commissioners, and take their orders respecting them. Mr. Pilkington thought that would be the most proper course, and inquired of Bryan if he had an inventory of the things he had left at his lodgings ? Bryan said no : he had been too " slack," having left the inventory with the landlady, as well as the things. Mrs. Stewart, the landlady, who was also in attendance to prefer a charge against Bryan, said the things were not worth the amount owing for rent ; they, with the exception of some old clothes, only consisted of about a dozen of Court Gazettes having portraits of her Majesty and prints of Wind sor Castle, &c., and the papers the inspector had produced. On the previous day Bryan had come back and demanded them, and, on being refused, had threatened her with vio lence. Bryan.—Nae, uae, woman, ye no tell the truth. The brigs wad hae done for the bairns, and the papers are worth gold. The worthy magistrate said he could not interfere between them. The applicant had not brought any inventory of what he had left at his lodgings, and, being in arrear for rent, he (Mr. Pilkington) could make no order in the case. Bryan then left the effice, casting a sad, " long, lingering look behind" at his papers, which were detained by the in spector. The letters, of which the papers are copies, are most ex traordinary productions. The writing is in a very fair hand, with some slight exceptions, and the language throughout breathes love and adoration towards her Majesty. The fol lowing are some extracts : The first bears no date, but is addresed to the Queen. " Dear Victoria,—l rot to you under cuver to your'Royal Mother, expressing the sentiments of my hart towards you, but as yet I recd. no answer.. You might have sent me some of answer, but, perhaps, you might think it wd. greatly dis hohour you to write a fue lines and sent them in answer to a subject, although he loved you ever so well, but, as it would have been kept secret on my part, it might not have dis honoured thee in the least, and it would have gratified my desire, let the words have been ever so fue. I know we are strangers to each other, except to appearance. We have never spoken to each other except with the Eye—but the Eye can speak strong language of love to them that understand it. They eyes are said to be the windows of the Soul, and as our Eyes nearly resemble each other, I consider our souls to be nearly connected. Althou our station in this life is far distant, yet Almighty God is able to unite us that we may enjoy the sweet connection of kindred souls, and celebrate his praises for ever and ever. I might have given ray name in full for any harm that I have done or intend to do to any one; but lest I may be unsuccessful in my attempt to gain thy hart and hand in true love, I wish to keep it secret to see if I can find whether you love me or not, for I do not wish to trouble any one that cannot love me. I believe that the want of royalty and a great earthly name on my part is the great business between us. I consider that you have the right to marry whom you please, that no one has any right to inter fere with you in that most important matter which belongeth to your personal happiness, if persons be of good principals and chest (chaste) behaviour. Yet advise from self may have some effect upon your youthful mind ; but never mind, my dear, what worldly people say. Strive to please Almighty • seek His direction and protection in every important matter, and if He be with us who can be against us? lam a lover of temperance, chastity, candour, peace, and good order, freedom and justice to all mankind, reward according to merit, and, above all things, may it be your constant desire to teach the ignorant, warn the thoughtless and ungodly-minded. May we strive to encourage every one in our power to serve the Lord with all their harts, for this is right. Concerning the ceremonies said to be performed at the coronation, I cannot pass over them without saying a fue words on that subject. It is said to be a holy solemnity—a blessing from Almighty God. It is also important, and go ing the rounds of sum of the public journals. It is allowed to be a most superstitious mummery or blasphemous ab surdity—a disgrace to the nation, an insult to common sense. It is allowed that, according to ancient custom, your Majesty must allow all the pears (peers), and bishops, old and young, clean and unclean, married or unmarried, to kiss your left cheek one after another in a private place, said to be between 400 and 500 in number, and to be unlaced and anointed with holy oil in the presence of the multitude. I hope your Ma jesty will never allow this to be done. Surely a chest (chaste) and prudent, tender-hearted female, would skrink from the ordeal of such dtsgusting. disgraceful, and sinful scan. Allow not this sin to be committed, Almighty God to be provoked to wrath and anger against you, and your Royal person to be disgraced in the ears of your loyal and right-minded subjects. Almighty God has given you power, and why will you not use it in a right way ? Is there to be a fair in the park for to days, a balloon to go up, all the theatres to be thrown open free to the publick, free of expense ? Do you call this a holy solemnity, and a blessing from Almighty God ?" The letter, which is very long, concludes by enjoining her Majesty to establish schools for instructing the poor, when the Lord will bless her, and cause her reign to be glorious, and her name and the glories of her reign to be spoken of, and to be imitated to the end of the world. Then the name of her followers shall be written in the Lamb's Book of Life, and she shall shine as the stars in the firmament for ever and ever, The letter concludes as follows :—" Your humble, J. B. ;" and is addressed " To Queen Victoria.- Direct the answer toJ. 8., to be left in Blackburn's Pos office, No. 32, St. George's-place, Knightsbridge." " Kensington. " Dearly beloved Lady Victoria,—l am very sorry that my letter appear to have such a strang impression on your mind as to cause thee to withdraw thy countenance in the house of God. Was it at the advice of thy principal adviser, so that thy loving James may not see thy fair deceiving-like face, or it is because my bei ng p resen t anoys t h ee ? Id o not wish to annoy thee. 1 thought ye loved me, therefore I loved thee the more ; but I believe Melburn, observing our apparent re gard for each other, I doubt not has done all in his power to poison thy mind against me, no doubt he has some of his own ends in view, and not thy true happiness. Perhaps he is well paid, or promised great favour, if he can succeed in gaining thy affections over to suit certain ones. I hope he has not so much power under his controul, that thou dare not even look in any direction contrary to his will. No, I hope thou art more prudent, and possessed of more magestick mind than to be entirely ruled by any of thy servants. Good advice should not be despised from any one. Hast thou not received the credentials from all the Kings of the earth, and entertained and honoured all that came to deliver them ? Has any one come to thee to offer the credentials of the King of Heaven—a King that hath power over every other King— who-created this world? [This letter then quotes largely from the book of Proverbs, and finishes as follows : A broken spirit is to God, a pleasing scan, and a contrite liar Lord, thou wilt not despise.' " Your humble lover, " To her Majesty Queen Victoria." " J. B. A third letter is dated " Windsor," and commences with— " Dearly beloved Lady Victoria,—l am sorry to hear that you are unwell, yet I hope it is nothing serious. You are well aware what feseshion (physician) to apply to for a safe and speedy cure ;" and ends with the following couplet : " May all true lovers, brave and fair, enjoy celestial graces; May no old pampered party men prevent their seeing each other's faces." A fourth letter announces his arrival at Windsor in per fect health ; and a sixth epistle, in which he apologises for having caused the Queen so much trouble, and tells her Majesty that her not having thought his letters worthy of notice or answer, is ascribable to her disdainful pride, and that " the fair" in his native land that had had an opportu nity a being acquainted with him, and were at all near his own complexion, had offered to him their love " with smiles and signs of love," yet but five of them had been answered by him,—" you (the Queen) having been my chief concern for years past." There was a letter addressed to the Duchess of Kent, dated " Kensington, Dec., 1838. " Kind and affectionate mother,—May I be sorry that I have so pashionally loved your daughter, since neither you or her think it worth your while to let me know whether or not you have received anything from my hand, for which cause I walk in darkness, concerning that important matter of so much importance to many. I came voluntary to this country for no other purpose than to obtain a place in your fair daughter's hart, having seen print impressions of her fine open features. I thought her fine large eye spoke love to me, even in print. Unadvised by any man, unassisted by any man, I left my native home, trusting in the Lord for my direction and protection, and 1 have found him worthy to be trusted. I have been as fortunate as I could expect. Dear lamb, she appears to love me, or I would not appear so often in Windsor, but for her sake and for the sake of the glorious cause of my dear Lord and Master." [He then goes on to say that although he is poor, he has been taken at Windsor by the soldiers for a prince, and the people in the streets have said, " What a fine-looking young man, as lovely as the rising sun for the Queen's husband, he is so like her," and some foreigners said so on passing him, " chabbering in their own language."] The last letter has been sent to Lord Melbourne, and is very lengthy. It stated his first visit to see the Queen when princess, in 1835 ; then his next visit, in 1837, when he fol lowed her Majesty along the road, under the triumphal arches of evergreen and_" flours," on her first visit to Wind- sor ; how the Queen looked at him when in the - Chapel Royal, and also while riding in the Great Park with her uncle, the King of the Belgians ; and, after a number of observations on the state of the country, and a wish that at least £105,000 should be set aside for the building of schoolhouses and maintaining teachers, concludes, after wishing that the people of Britain may know what is neces sary for their soul's salvation, with the following couplet : " The soul's redemtion presheous is and it can never be That still we shall for ever live and no corruption see." Celeste, the celebrated dancer and pantomimist, is said, by the New York Morning Herald, to have closed her theatrical life in the Bowery Theatre, where she began it, and to have quitted the stage with a fortune of 150,000 dol lars. She returns to Europe in the British Queen. The Duke of Sussex and Lady Cecilia Underwood left town on Thursday by the railroad for Derby.

MEDICAL REMORSE.—The balance of account between satisfaction and remorse was jocosely stated by Dr. Warren to Lady Spencer, who had said, she thought the frequent re flection, that a different treatment might have saved their patients, must embitter the lives of medical men : he told her that the balance was greatly in favour of satisfaction, for he hoped to cure her forty times before he killed her once. — Physic and Physicians. PORTRAIT OF WHITEFIELD.—He was something above the middle stature, well proportioned, though at that time slender, and remarkable for a native gracefulness of manner. His complexion very fair, his features regular, his eyes small and lively, of a dark blue colour—in recovering from the. measles he had contracted a squint in one of them : but this peculiarity in no way lessened the expressive sweetness of his countenance. His voice excelled both in melody and compass, and its fine modulations were happily accompanied by that grace of action which he possessed in an eminent de gree, and which has been said to be the chief requisite of an orator.—Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, Vol. 11. BEAU NASH AND JOHN WESLEY.—When Mr. Wesley was preaching at Bath, Beau Nash entered the room, and approaching the preacher, demanded by what authority he was acting ? Mr. Wesley answered, " By that of Jesus Christ, conveyed to me by the present Archbishop of Canterbury, when he laid his hands on me and said—Take thou authority to preach the Gospel!" Nash then affirmed that he was acting contrary to law. " Besides, (said he) your preaching frightens people out of their wits." "Sir, (replied Mr. Wes ley) did you ever bear me preach ?" "No," said the master of the Ceremonies. " How then can you judge of what you have never heard ? " "By common report," repled the Beau. " Sir, (said Mr. Wesley) is not your name Nash ? I dare not judge of you by common report." Nash finding himself a different person in the meeting house from what he was in the pump room, thought it best to withdraw.— Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, 2 Vols. DEATH OF DR. WOODVILLE.—MedicaI men are said to meet their end with composure. When Dr. Woodville was supposed to be dangerously ill, his friends called upon him and endeavoured to excite his hopes of recovery : " I am not so silly," said the doctor, " as to mind what they say; I know my own case too well, and that I am dying : a younger person, with a better stamina, might think it hard to die, but why-should I regret to leave such a diseased worn-out carcase as mine ?" The carpenter with whom he lodged had not been always on the best terms with Woodville. The physician said he should wish to let the man see that he died in peace with him ; and as he had never much occasion to employ him, de sired he might be sent for to measure him for his coffin. This was accordingly done; the carpenter came,. and took the measure of the doctor, who begged him not to be more than two days about it, " for," said he, " I shall not live beyond that time ;" and he did actually die just before the end of the next day.—Physic and Physicians. THE FIRST MEETING BETWEEN DRS. RADCLIFFE AND MEAD.—When Dr. Mead was young, and just beginning to be talked of, he was asked to Carshalton ; the object was to make him drunk, and to see the man : this design he sus pected, and carefully avoided to fill a bumper when the sign was given. And he so managed as to see all the company re tire under the table, except Radcliffe and himself; and the former was so far gone as to talk fast, and .to show himself affected by the potations. "Mead," said he, " will you suc ceed me." "It is impossible," replied the polite Mead ; " you are Alexander the Great, and no man can succeed Radcliffe : to succeed to one of his kingdoms is the utmost of my ambition." Radcliffe, with all his bluntness, was sus ceptible of flattery when delicately dressed hp, and this reply won his heart. "I will recommend you, Mead, to my pa tients," said he ; and the next day he did Mead the honour to visit him in town, when he found him reading Hippocra tes. Radcliffe with surprise asked, "Do you read Hippocra tes in the original Greek ? " Yes," answered Mead res pectfully. "I never read it in my life," said the great Rad cliffe. "No ?" replied Mead, " you have no oceasion, you are Hippocrates himself." This did the business for Mead, and it completely gained the blunt Radcliffe ; and when he did not choose to attend patients, he recommended Mead, who from that moment rapidly rose in his profession.—Phy sic and Physicians. THE PLAYER AND THE PREACHER.—The Rev. J. Kins man one day meeting Shuter, the actor, in Portsmouth, said he had been preaching so often. and to such large congrega tions, that Dr. Fothergill advised a change of air to avert a threatened illness. " And I," said Shuter, t' have been acting till ready to die ; but, oh, how different our conditions ! Had you fallen it would have been in the service of God ; but in whose service have my powers been wasted ! I dread to think of it. I certainly had a call once, while studying my part in the park, and had Mr. Whitefield received me at the Lord's Table, I never should have gone back ; but the caresses of the great, who, when unhappy, want Shuter to make them laugh, are too seducing. There is a good and a moral play to night, but no sooner is it over, than I come in with my farce of A Dish of all Sorts, and knock all the moral on the head." —Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, Vol. 11. THE POPULAR MAN AND THE MAN OF ORIGINALITY.— ; The popular man, and the man of true, or at least of great 1 originality, are seldom one and the same ; we suspect that, till after a strong struggle on the part of the latter, they are never so. Reasons are obvious enough. The popular man stands on our own level, or a hair's breadth higher ; he shows us a truth which we cannot see without shifting our present intellectual position. This is a highly convenient arrange ment. The original man, again, stands above us ; he wishes to wrench us from our old fixtures, and elevate us to a higher and clearer level ; but to quit our old fixtures, especially if we have sat in them with moderate comfort for some score or two of years, is no such easy business ; accordingly we demur, we resist, we even give battle ; we still suspect that he is above us, but try to persuade ourselves (laziness and vanity earnestly assenting)' that he is below. For is it not the very essence of such a man that he be new ? And who will war rant us, that, at the same time, he shall only be an intensa tion and continuation of the old, which, in general, is what we long and look for ? No one can warrant us. And, grant ing him to be a man of real genius, real depth, and that speaks not till after earnest meditation, what sort of a philo sophy were his, could we estimate the length, breadth, arid thickness of it at a single glance ? And when did criticism give two glances ? Criticism, therefore, opens on such a man its greater and lesser batteries on every side ; he has no security but to go on disregarding it; and " in the end," says Goethe, "criticism itself comes to relish that method." But now let a speaker of the other class come forward—one of those men that " have, more than any one, time opinion which all men have!" No sooner does he speak, than all and sundry of us feel as if we had been wishing to speak that very thing as if we ourselves might have spoken it ; and forthwith resounds from the united universe a celebration of that surprising feat. What clearness, brilliancy, justness, penetration ! Who can doubt that this man is right, when so many thousand votes are ready to back him ? Doubtless, he is right ; doubtless, he is a clever man ; and his praise will long be in all the magazines.—Carlyle. • I FIELD OF WATERLOO AT NOON ON THE DAY AFTER THE BATTLE.—On a surface of two square miles, it was ascer tained that fifty thousand men and horses were lying ! The luxurious crop of ripe grain which had covered the field of battle was reduced to litter, and beaten into the earth ; and the surface, trodden down by the cavalry, and furrowed deeply by the cannon wheels, strewn with many a relict - of the fight. Helmets and cuirasses, shattered fire-arms and broken swords ; all the variety of military ornaments ; lancer caps and highland bonnets ; uniforms of every colour, plume and pennon-; musical instruments, the apparatus of artillery, drums, bugles ; but, good God ! why dwell on the harrowing picture of a foughten field ? each and every. ruinous display bore mute testimony to the misery of such a battle. * * Could the melancholy appearance of this scene of death be heightened, it would be by witnessing the researches of the living, amidst its desolation, for the objects of their love. Mothers and wives and children for days were occupied in that mournful duty ; and the confusion of the corpses, friend and foe intermingled as they were, often rendered the attempt. at recognising individuals difficult, and. in some cases inipos sible. * * In many places the dead lay four deep upon each other, marking the spot sonic British square had occu pied, when exposed for hours to the murderous fire of a French battery. Outside, lancer and cuirassier were scattered thickly on the earth. Madly attempting to force the serried bayonets of the British, they had fallen, in the bootless essay, by the musketry of the inner files. Farther on, you traced - the spot where the cavalry of France and England had en countered. Chasseur and hussar were intermingled ; and the heavy Norman horse of the Imperial Guard were interspersed with the grey chargers which had carried Albyn's chivalry. Here the Highlander and trailleur lay, side by side, together ; and the heavy dragoon. with green Erin's badge upon the helmet, was grappling in death with the Polish lancer. * * On the summit of the ridge, where the ground was cumbered with dead, and trodden fetlock-deep in mud and gore, by the frequent rush of rival cavalry, the thick-strewn corpses of the Imperial Guard pointed out the spot where Napoleon had been defeated. Here, in column, that favoured corps, on which his last chance rested, had been annihilated ; and the advance and repulse of the Guard was traceable by a mass of fallen Frenchmen. In the hollow below, the last struggle of France had been vainly made • for there the Old Gu ar d, when the middle battalions had been forced back, attempted to meet the British, and afford time for their disorganized companions to rally. Here the British left, which had con verged upon the French centre, had come up ; and here the bayonet closed the contest.—Maxwell's Victories of the British Army. SCENE AT THE NOCTES AMBROSIAN.E.—The gradual ' " rise and progress" of Blackwood's' Magazine, however, became, henceforth, a source of great amusement, and some profit to Hogg. He contributed prose stories, under the title of the " Shepherd's Calendar;" continued to write poems ; and, as all the world knows, was turned to account as enact ing the Shepherd at the "Noctes A.rubrosian." These " Noctes," instead of being merely invented, as may haie been supposed, were at first adaptations of what actually took place at tavern-meetings in Gabriel's-road, before the landlord shifted his quarters to Picardv.-plaCe—meetings which took place naturally enough, when Iliackiiood, in the joy of his heart, invited a successful contributor to " bread and cheese" at the house where he had his own refreshments—the so styled bread and cheese soon changing into beef-steaks, porter and port; and these in time giving way to venison, claret, and champagne. I will give an instance. One after noon, I think it was in the year 1824 or 25, I met Hogg in Princes-street, and requested that he would come to dinner at my house. He replied that it was impossible ; " For," said he, " I am engaged wi' twa grand American gentlemen that's travelled a' the way from Philadelphy just to see mei I (me,) and we are to dine thegither at Awmrose's. I'm gaun to ask Blackwood, and ye maun come yoursel, and be crow. peer." In excuse, I pleaded my own party at home ; but he I insisted that a cawdy might be despatched to each guest, and that they should also dine at Ambrose's. Eventually this was arranged ; and, in the course of my walk, I ordered a hamper of choice wine to be sent to the tavern, with direc- tions that part of it should be carefully cooled. The party at dinner was not a large one. It consisted of Hogg, pre sident ; his " twa grand Americans," young men of re spectable demeanour (who personally knew several of the transatlantic authors, and who wore frills and hand-ruffles, in the style of 1794 ;) Blackwood ; Timothy Tickler; and my friends,—to wit, a brother lawyer, and two Leith merchants. Of the three last, none had been at a " Noctes" before; and they were, consequently, much amused and surprised, as were, of course, the " twa grand Americans." Indeed, one main charm of such jovial meetings depended on the intro duction now and then of a fresh Inan, sufficiently intelligent to enjoy the broad humour of the scene. And the greatest attraction of all consisted in the complete sans ge'ne and com fort of the place, contrasted with , the humility of the apart ments. The cheer that day was excellent, and Hogg in enor mous glee ; as usual with him on all festive occasions, de nouncing the use of wine, and mixing jug after jng of Glenli vet punch, in which the Leith merchants willingly joined him. About half-past ten, when our " mirth and fun" had begun to "grow fast and furious," arrived Messrs. L - and G the former glad to escape from the theatre, where he had been assisting at a benefit ; the latter some what tired, having walked all the way from his country house, near Musselburg. They were received with shouts of wel come. I directed their attention to the store of champagne and claret which had been left in the ice-pail ; and, to their. great satisfaction, ordered a supper of devilled lobsters and Welsh rabbit. Blackwood, who for the last hour, had been fast asleep, tried to awake' on the entrance of supper, and flopping of champagne corks ; and openinc , half of one eye, helped himself to an entire finnan haddock.' The conversa tion, the songs, the practical jokes, of that night, were all so extravagant and ridiculous, that it would have been impossi ble for any sober man to have invented the like. Within two days thereafter, the proceedings were fairly written out by L—, and printed by James Ballantyne. But of all the " Noctes" hitherto exhibited, this production looked the most unlike to truth, and yet was nothing more than a faith ful sketch from real life.—Frazer'. Magazine for October.

We have this week, an import of upwards of 16,000 quarters of foreign Wheat, and 3,500 barrels of foreign Flour, on the whole of which, together with the previous stocks of those articles in bond, amounting to upwards of 86,000 quarters and 20,000 brls., respect fully, duty has been paid. Of British Grain the supplies are small : a few parcels of new wheat have arrived from Ireland, and two or three cargoes of new Oats from the same quarter: the quality of the latter middling, but that of the Wheat very inferior. On Tuesday, prices of old Wheat gave way to 4(1 to fid per bushel, and new reduced to a much greater extent, the inferior qualities of the latter being almoat unsaleable. On Friday, however, we had numerous buyers at market, some from a considerable distance, and and old Wheat nearly recovered this decline. Foreign sweet Flour has met a fair demand at 385 to 42s per 1961b5. : there is little of English manufacture on the market.
