Vottrp. THE OLD ELM TREE. It was a fine old stately tree, That alone in its might did grow, In the self-same pride that 'twas wont to be A hundred years ago : Two children sate beneath its shade, As fair as fair could be ' • And 'twas sweet to watch them as they play'd, Smiling so merrily. Time passed—beneath that ancient tree A blushing maiden stood, And a comely youth, I guess, was he That sought that solitude : Sweet were the words that softly fell, As she bent her face to his •, For a magic talc had he to tell, Of true love's mysteries. Time passed--it was an aged pair That sate beneath that tree ; And a fair-haired child was smiling there, Beside his grandsire's knee; And the sky was bright with the sun's red light, Ere he sank on his ocean throne; And the whispering stars came with the night, Twinkling one by one. Time passed—the wanderer often stayed To rest upon that stone, For silent was the chequered shade, And the grave with moss o'ergrown ; They had gone !—yet still 'twas a fine old tree, Unchanged, above, below, In the self-same pride that 'twas wont to be A hundred years ago. —Manchester Courier. TWO SONNETS ON A LATE SOARING EXPEDI TION TO THE LORDS. BY SIR MORGAN O'DOHERTY, BART. (From Fraser's Magazine for October.) ON SPRING RICK, IN THE CHARACTER OF GANYMEDE. When, as the poets sing, high-judging Jove, In plenitude of premiership, decreed To give, with grace, his favourite Ganymede From earth—the Lower House—a kindly shove, In pitchfork fashion, to the House above, He sent his own brave bird, with hastiest speed, Upon that noble mission to proceed ; Down swooping from the sky the eagle drove, And caught the youth, and upwards towered again, Into Jove's Court of Peers. As fine a flight Has Rice, the soaring Superficial, ta'en At Melbourne's bidding. Therefore doth the Wight, Iu order that his name should be en regle, Choose Ganymadu as type, and write himself Monteagle. ON SPRING RICE, IN THE CHARACTER OF DAN. O'ROURKE. But not alone to Ganymede in fame Is our up-springing statesman like. Another Proud hero of romance, an Irish brother, (See Crotty Croker,) Dan O'Rourke by name, Has in his flying match done much the same, Dan, from a dirty bog where he was sticking, Bothering and sweating, bungling, blundering, kicking— A mock to all, a thing of jeer and game— Mcunted an Eagle, and so reached the moon: So Spring, all floundering in the dismal mass Of his Exchequer blundering, hailed the boon Which his Mount-Eagle sent him in distress. But better Rice than Rourke has done the trick, Because John Bull, not he, has played the lunatic. Chequers, Downing-street, Sept. 29. LITERARY NOTICES. The Church of England Quarterly Review. No. 12. October, 1839. London : W. E. Painter. Whilst we are constrained to express our strong disappro bation of one article in the present number of this excellent periodical, we willingly bear testimony to the learning and ability displayed in its general contents. The article to which we allude is that on " The Evangelical Party," which con tains a virulent and acrimonious attack upon the large and orthodox body by whom the character and honour of our na tional church has been mainly sustained during the last thirty years. Had it not been for the " evangelical party," as, sneeringly designated by the abusive author of the" article under notice, the Church of England would have king since sunk into litter insignificance under the combined assaults of the Papists and Dissenters. The author evidently knows nothing about the subject which he has undertaken to eluci date. We feel astonished that his crude and ignorant ani madversions should have been admitted into the columns of so respectable a review as the Church of England Quarterly. They are much better adapted for the columns of the Weekly Dispatch or the Satirist. It is scarcely necessary for us to add that this abusive writer is a Puseyite and something more —probably a Jesuit. His sole object seems to cast ridicule upon true Christianity. The subsequent article on " The Rule of Faith" merits our unqualified approbation. It contains an able analysis of the celebrated Downside Controversy. We have also been much delighted with the perusal of the spirited article on The Church of England defended against the Misrepresentations of Modern Seceders." The account given of our periodical literature is , xceedingly interesting. " The History of Christianity in India" is an article of great im portance. There is much merit in the elaborate paper on " Eminent French Divines." The extracts which it embodies arc fine specimens of manly and dignified oratory. The ar ticle on the " Labours of the Session" is a masterly pro duction. Blackwood': Magazine. October, 1829. The introductory article in this number contains an able analysis of " Torqnato Tasso ; or, the Prison and the Crown," by the Baron Von Zedlitz. The essay on the feigned " Mad ness of Hamlet" exhibits great penetration of mind and dis crimination of character. The essay on " Casuistry" is also exceedingly clever. The notices of the" Picture Exhibitions" will be read with great interest both by the artist and the amateur. The author is evidently a complete master of his subject, which he treats of with great vivacity of style. The commencement of " Goethe's Life and Works" gives pro mise of a very interesting series. The elaborate review of the " Whig and Tory Finance" has been very seasonably in troduced at the present crisis. The arithmetical statements which it contains afford the most conclusive evidence of whig extravagance and mismanagement. " Ten Thousand a Year" is a capital tale, fully equal in many respects to anything that Boz has ever published. Dickens must really now look after his laurels, or he will assuredly be eclipsed by the anonymous author of the tale before us. The conclusion of the review of " Henry Grattan's Life" abounds in anecdote. The con cluding article on " State Trials" is very curious and in teresting, Fraser .Magazine. October, 1839. This is a capital number, whether as regards its variety or the excellence of its several articles. The continuation of the " Greek Comedy" contains very able and scholarlike strictures on the Knights of Aristnphanes. "The Legend of Becket" is an extremely well written tale. The specimens given from " The Elder (English) Sacred Poets," though frequently quaint and homely in their phraseology, abound with rich touches of fancy. One of the most interesting articles in the present number is that entitled " Some Recollections of James Hogg." It is replete with characteristic anecdotes. " The Church" is the title of a very masterly article in vin dication of the principle of an Established Religion, which we especially recommend to the attentive perusal of our read ers. " The French Plutarch" promises to be an interesting series. " The Youth of Julia Howard" is another excellent tale. Dr. Magitna's remarks on " The Learning of Shak speare" will afford the antiquarian reader a very rich treat. The observations on " Don Carlos, Christina, and the Spanish Question," display much sound sense. " A Passage in the Second Year of the Reign of Queen Victoria" will be read with a painful degree of interest. It contains a careful review of the correspondence respecting the case of the late Lady Flora Hastings. The author's remarks are not less severe than true. The Dublin University Magazine. October, 1839. The spirited publishers of thin excellent magazine have in this number commenced a series of-portraits of eminent cha racters connected . with Ireland. The first given is that of the Rev. Cmsar Otway, author of " A Tour in Connaught." The etching is well executed, and the biographical memoir well written. Ma article on the " State of Parties in the British Empire" is very valuable. It proves the truth of the proposition that the government is a faction, and that the faction is a government. " A Chapter in the History of a Tyrone Family" is another of the graphic extracts from the legacy of the late Peter Purcell. The continuation of " The Journal of Francaise Krasinka" is getting rather tiresome. The review of " The Life and Times of Henry Grattan" is dispassionately written. "The Grave-digger's Daughter" is a tale of great power and pathos. There is much truth, plainly but forcibly expressed in " The Epistle of a Yeoman from the North." We have been highly pleased with " The Recollections of a Portrait Painter." We are glad to find the " Legends and Tales of the Queen's County Peasantry" continued. The " Bewitched Butter" is exquisitely rich in its illustrations of a popular superstition. The Polytechnic Journal. No. 2. October, 1839. The present number fully justifies the warm commenda tions which we bestowed upon the first. In many respects there is a visible improvement upon the plan on which this periodical was started, especially in the arrangement of the materials. We cordially agree with the remarks upon " The British Association for the Advancement of Science." We firmly believe that this Society has been a complete failure. It has not realized any of the ohjects for which it was origin ally formed. It has degenerated into a sort of itinerating jovial club. The remarks on " Laing's Dangerous Fallacies," display a considerable degree of acquaintance with the science of statistics; The Sketch of a Plan for the Promotion of the Fine Arts" is ingenious, but, we fear, impracticable. The remarks on " The Astronomy of the Book of Job" are learned and curious. We think Mr. Landseer correct in his theory. The essay on "Beethoven" will be interesting to musical readers. In the observations on " Falling Stars" we do not recognise any thing new. We have not yet met with any theory which afford: a rational account of this phenomenon. The elaborate ace'unt of "The Daguerreotype" is exceed ingly interesting. It is the most intelligible that we have yet met with. The miscellaneous articles in the Polytechhie Journal are mostly of very great value. British Farmer's Magazine. New Series. No. 11. October. 1839. London : Ridgway and Sons. execlientye,riodical ought to be in the hands of all who are concerned in farming operations of any description. The present'number contains several articles -of very great importance. The account given of the " First Meeting of the English Agricultural Society," is copious and accurate, and constitutes a permanent record of great interest. The paper on " Pseudo Science " contains some very pungent but apposite strictures on a work entitled, " A Flora of Liverpool." The remarks on " Draining by Steam Power," embrace a variety of statistical details of very great impor tance. We have been greatly pleased with the sensible and appropriate observations on the " State Education of the Agricultural Class." We must, however, dissent from the author's remarks on his ethical system for the cultivation of morals. He is evidently bitten with the anti-religions-teach ing mania. The paper on " Subsoil Ploughing" will be perused with great interest. The subject is attracting uni versal attention among agriculturists. We are glad to find that the editor has given the Anti-Corn Law Circular a trim ming. It is well deserved. We cordially recommend The British Farmer's Magazine to the notice of such of our rea ders as are interested in agricultural or other congenial pursuits. They will find it a valuable acquisition to their libraries. Confessions. of Harry Lorrequer. No. 8. Dublin : W. Curry, jun. and Co. The increasing popularity of these inimitable confessions is the most pregnant testimony to their humour, vigour, and originality. The pictures of life which they contain, though occasionally a little exaggerated, are exuberantly rich in their colourini. Harry's career in Paris is very amusingly related. The episodes of O'Leary's two courtships are exquisitely amusing. The conduct of the same hero on the occasion of the duel is also highly laughable. The illustrations are exceedingly well executed. The South Australian Miscellany, and New Zealand Re view. No. 1. October, 1839. London : Smith, Elder, and Co. This interesting publication will be found of great utility to the emigrant. It abounds with information of the highest importance respecting the South Australian and New Zealand colonies. The work is got up with great care, and reflects much credit on the editor. The contents, as Might be ex pected from the title, are chiefly devoted to statistical and historical details respecting the countries above alluded to. The condensation of Australian news which it gives will al most supersede the necessity of consulting any other publica tion. Wilson's Historical, Traditionary and Imaginative Tales of the Borders, and of Scotland. Part 63. Edinburgh : Sutherland. This series of tales has been aptly designated " a perfect encyclopedia of fiction." We rejoice to find that it is be coming increasingly popular. The tales in the present num ber are exceedingly interesting, and we have no doubt that they will be extensively read. The Sunbeam. No. 88. London : Berger. This amusing repertory of anecdote and fiction is con ducted with great ability. The musical compositions which it puts forth, very materially enhance its value. Its tales are capital. We wish the editor would write in a somewhat less mystical style than he does. The Bazaar, a Poem; embracing thoughts on the progres— sive knowledge in connection with it. ißy Robert Rose, the Bard of Colour. Manchester : Belshaw. This poem was composed by desire of the friends of the Manchester Mechanics' Institution, to whom it is inscribed. The occasion which gave rise to it was thp Bazaar recently held at Manchester, for the benefit of the:Mechanics' Insti tution. The versification is smooth, acid the sentiments correct. We are glad to find that Mr.' Rose's talents are held in such high estimation by our Manchester neighbours. SELECT EXTRACTS. WORKING DOUBLE TIDES.—When the writer was lieu tenant, superintending- the Eastbourne district of the coast blockade service, he became acquainted with the family of Mr. Longshaw, a gentleman of fortune, who had hired a house for some months at that place. From some unaccount able cause, Mr. Longshaw's valuable carriage horses became gradually so lean and sluggish, that they were unable at times to draw the phaeton up a hill,and upon one occasion actually stood still on the way to church, which was only two miles distant. The oats were changed, hay chopped, beans added, mashes administered, bandages applied, feet stopped, and sea-bathing practised, without producing the least improve ment. To use the expression of a celebrated whip, there was—" No go in the brutes ; they were always picking up seven-shilling pieces along the road ; and they wore out three breechings to a trace." Veterinary practitioners were con sulted, which of course made matters worse, since they nearly succeeded in producing a disease where there was none be fore. The poor animals were bled, blistered, and physicked, secundem artcm, without either mercy or amendment. Mr. Longshaw was at his wits' end—his bays were not worth a button—he would have sold them for a song—or " spared them to a friend" without much solicitation. The writer, however, happening to observe considerable intimacy between the coachman and some of the " fair traders," an investiga tion was instituted, which ended in the coachman's contes nis thut he had I.lcyn tcmptcd to biro ot.t tko " oc•c-o*" per night to one George Hetherington, a notorious smuggler, who came for them after the family had retired to rest, worked them hard all night in conveying contraband goods, and brought them back to their stable, soon after daybreak, to be groomed for their ordinary labour ; a systeni, as the reader will admit, not particularly well calculated to improve either their speed or their condition.—Mr. Longshaw's as tonishment and indignation may be imagined, when he ascer tained that only twenty-four hours previous to his making this discovery, his favourite bays bad been employed in work ing a cargo of foreign spirits at Seaford, ten miles from home ; and that they escaped being seized, condemned, and sold, only by a desperate feat of Hetherington, who swam them, heavily laden, across Cuckmere river at midnight.—United Service Journal. MEDICAL DUELS.—Dr. Baillie was rejected at the Col lege. He called the next day on Dr. Barrowby, who was one of the censors, and insisted upon his fighting him. Bar rowby, who was a little puny man, declined it. "I am only third censor," said he, " in point of age—you — must first call out your own countryman, Sir Hans Sloane, our president, and when you have fought him, and two senior censors, then I shall be ready to meet you."—Many medical duels have been prevented by the difficulty of arranging the "methodus pugnandi." In the instance of Dr. Brocklesby, the number of paces could not be agreed upon; and in the affair between Akenside and Ballow, one had determined never to fight in the morning, and the other that he would never fight in the afternoon.—John Wilkes, who did not stand upon ceremony in these little affairs, when asked by Lord Talbot " How many times they were to fire ?" replied, " Just as many as many as your lordship pleases ; I have brought a bag of bill lets and a flask of gunpowder with me. '—Physic and Physicians. dARRICK AND DR. STONHOUSE.—Dr. Stonhouse is said to have been one of the most correct and elegant preachers in the kingdom. When he entered into holy orders he took occasion to profit by his acquaintance with Garrick; to pro cure from him some valuable instructions in elocution. Be ing once engaged to read prayers and to preach at a church in the city, he prevailed upon Garrick to go with him. After the service, the British Roscius asked the Doctor what par ticular business he had to.do when the duty was over? " None," said the other. " I thought you had, (said Garrick) on seeing you enter the reading-desk in such a hurry." " Nothing (added he) can be more indecent than to see a clergyman set about sacred business as if he were a trades man, and go into the church as if he wanted to get out of it as soon as possible." He next asked the Doctor " What books he had in the desk before him ? " " Only the Bible and Prayer-book." "Only the Bible and Prayer-book (replied the player), why you tossed them backwards and forwards and turned the leaves as carelessly as if they were those of a day-book and ledger." The Doctor was wise enough to see the force of these observations, and ever after avoided the faults they were designed to reprove.—Countess of Hunting don's Life and Times, 2 Vols. ATTRACTION IN WALES.—WaIes presents many attracti ons to the sportsman. The disciples of Izaak Walton find numerous rivers well stored with fish ; it is, however, an amusement which never took my fancy, therefore I cannot descant upon it. There are several, very agreeable little racing meetings; and those of Abergavenny, Monmouth, and Pontypool, although situated in Monmouthshire, being prin cipally supported by the same parties who send their horses to the meetings in the principality, and being within a short distance, may be,considered within the same district. The lovers of the trigger have in most parts sufficient scope for their exertions. Ex . cept in some favoured places, game is not strictly preserved ; consequently is not so abundant as might be wished ; nevertheless a fair sprinkling may be found, and amongst other kinds the woodcock appears in due season, the pursuit of which most assuredly ianks highest in the estima tion of the knights of the fowling-piece. As for hunting, there is plenty of it ; and if the establishments are not sup ported with ostentatious grandeur, yet they cannot fail to gratify those who are really fond of it. The merry harrier will rouse your heart if you can be content while hare hunt ing, and is a goad substitute in mountainous countries for the fox-hound. Even with the latter, those whO enjoy hunt ing merely for the parade of riding to covert, or of riding a hunting steeple-chase when they are there, must not resort to these quarters ; such, however, are not sportsmen, conse quently are not gratified with the legitimate character of field sports which sportsmen only can appreciate.—Old Sporting Magazine. DEATH OF LORD CHESTERFIELD.—" I saw my dear and valued friend (says Lady Huntingdon) a short time before his departure. The blackness of darkness, accompanied by every gloomy horror, thickened most awfully round his dy ing moments. Dear Lady Chesterfield could not be per suaded to leave his room for an instant. What unmitigated anguish has she endured, but her confidential communica tions I am not at liberty to disclose. ' The curtain has fallen —his mortal part has passed to another state of existence. Oh ! Inv soul, come not thou unto his end." Lord Ches terfield's infidelity is too well known to require much corn ment.—Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, 2 Vols. RAPID EXTENSION OF MANCHESTER. — In the year 1744, according to the census then taken, the parish of Manches ter contained 41,032 inhabitants ; according to the parlia mentary census of 1831, it contained a population of 207,961. Eight years have elapsed since that period, and it may fairly be presumed that the present population will amount to at least three hundred thousand souls ! Such an increase to take place in a period within the memory of many individu als, is perhaps unparalleled. There are many old inhabi tants living who recollect the town when very circumscribed in its limits. They remember a time, for instance, when Ard wick Green, now connected with the town by contiguous houses, was a long country walk—when the site of the pre sent substantial warehouses in New Market Buildings was a pool of water—when the present handsome sheet of water in front of the Infirmary was a stagnant pool—when Oxford Road and Lower Mosley-street, and all the districts beyond were yet fields and gardens—when High-street and Cannon. street, and the upper end of Market-street, and St. Ann's Square, were private dwellings. They can recollect the first factory erected in the town, the one in Miller's-lane, and the crowds of people that flecked to see the high chimney be longing to it, when it was in progress of erection—they re member Strangeways, when a public house, its bowling green, and the pile called Strangeways Hall, were the only encroach ments on green fields and pastures stretching even to Bunt's Bank—they tell of the time when a coach to Liverpool started at six o'clock in the morning, and reached its desti nation at the same hour in the evening. To the present ge neration the reminiscences of these not very aged individu als seem marvellous, but their accuracy is unquestionable. It is within the last sixty years that Manchester has multi plied its population by seven, and has risen from compara tively a small town; to be one of the most populous and im portant places in the world.—Manchester as it is, SALT WATER.—Mr. Miller, employed in the inspection of the Greek manuscripts of the Royal Library of Paris, has stated, in a communication to the academy, that the ancients were acquainted with various methods of making salt water fresh ; and they make mention, among other ways, of dis tillation, and of receiving the evaporation on sponges, the water expressed from which is perfectly sweet. Cunrous CusToac.—ln the Canton of Basle, in Switzer land, there is a law which compels every new married couple to plant six trees immediately after the ceremony, and two more on the birth of every child. They are planted on Com mons, frequently near the high roads ; and the greater part of them being fruit trees, are at one and the same time both useful and ornamental. The number planted is said to amount to ten thousand yearly. NATURAL FirOWERS IN WINTER.—TO produce them, some of the most perfect buds of the flowers it is wished to preserve, such as are latest In blowing and ready to open, must be chosen. Cut them off with a pair of scissors, lea ving the stem about three inches long ; cover the end imme diately with Spanish wax, and, when the buds are a little shrunk and wrinkled, wrap them up separately in paper, and place them in a dry box. When it is desired to have the flower to blow, take the buds over-night, cut off the sealed end of the stem, and put the buds into water, wherein has been infused a little nitre or salt, and the next day you will have the pleasure of seeing the buds open and expand them selves, and the flowers display their most lively colours, and breathe their agreeable odour around. ' Da. WOODWARD.—Dr. Woodward was expelled the coun cil of the Royal Society, for an insult offered to Sir Hans, then Dr. Sloane, the secretary. Sir Hans was reading a paper of his own composition, and Woodward said some thing greatly insulting about it. Sir Isaac Newton was in the chair when the vote for expulsion 'was agitated. Dr. Sloane complained that he had often affronted him by making grimaces at him ; and upon that occasion Dr. Arbuthnot got up to ask what degree of distortion of the muscles of a man's face it was that constituted a grimace? Woodward, however, was expelled ; and somebody having pleaded in his favour that he was a good natural philosopher, Sir Isaac Newton remarked, that in order to belong to that society, a man ought to be a good moral philosopher, as well as a natural one.—Physic and Physicians. TRIALS OF THE CLERGY .—Old John Berridge, writing to Lady Huntingdon for a supply for his pulpit, says, " But whom do you recommend to the care of my church ? Is it not one Onesimus, who ran away from Philemon ? If the Dean of Tottenham (Whitefield) could not hold him in with a curb,- how should the Vicar of Everton guide him with a snavel? Ido not want a helper to stand in my pulpit, but to ride round my district ; and I fear my weekly circuits would not suit a London or a Bath divine, nor any tender Evange list that is environed with prunello. Long rides and miry -roads in sharp weather ! Cold houses to sit in, with a very moderate fuel, and three or four children roaring and rock ing about you ; stiff blankets like boards for a covering ; and live cattle in plenty to feed upon von ! Rise at five in the morning to preach ; at seven breakfast on tea that smells very sickly; at eight mount a horse, with boots never cleaned, and then ride home, praising God for all things." —Countess of Huntingdon's Life and Times, Vol. 11, DR. CAnciaaN.s---This physician, who was at one time in indifferent circumstances, married a rich old lady, over whose wealth he had an entire controul. Like most mer cantile marriages, it was not of the happiest kind. The lady had a suspicion on her mind, that the doctor would one day poison her with his physic in order to get her out of his way ; and feeling ill, on one occasion, she exclaimed that she was poisoned. " Poisoned !" said the doctor to a number of his wife's friends who were present, " how can that possibly be ? Whom do you accuse of the crime ?" " You," replied the indignant wife. " Gentlemen," said the doctor, with consi derable non chalance, "it is perfectly false. You are quite welcome to open her at once, and you will then discover the calumny,"—Physic and Physicians. TEMPERANCE SAVINGS.—Suppose a young person, at the age of 20, was to place Is. 6(1. a week in the savings' bank, instead of spending it in drink or in folly, the amount saved at the end of one year would be £3 18s. to which, if he added 2s. he would be entitled to interest on £4. Let them thus add £4 every year to his savings, and continues to do so till the age of 40—that is to say, for 20 years—at the time he would find that, though he has placed but £BO in the savings' bank, he has become entitled to upwards of £l2O ; in fact, that the interest (which he has not taken out, but put back into the bank as it became due to him) has amounted to above half as much as the whole sum he had saved. If a man of 21 years of age begins to save 4s. a week, and puts it to interest every year, he will have at 31 years of age, £l3O 15s. Id. ; at 41, £371 7s. ; at 51, £735 14s. llid. ; at 61, £1,22958.2*(1. ; at 71, £2,296 Os. 41s1. Let those who spend shilling after shilling in drinks which do them no good, but, on the contrary, inflict serious in juries on their constitution and character, diligently ponder the above statement; and let the moderate drinker, too, see how much he might save by giving up his little drops. POROSITY OF COTTON.—FiII a common -glass tumbler, or other vessel, completely with some spirituous liquor, so that a few drops more would cause it to overflow. This done, you will find no difficulty in introducing into the tumbler, so filled, a whole handful of raw cotton. * * * Spirits an swer better than water, for trying the experiment, from the rapidity with which they are absorbed by the cotton. Seve . ral theories were started .by persons who tried the experi ment ; such as, that the filaments of cotton occupied the va cancies between the globules of water; or that by its capil lary action the cotton subdivided the globules, and caused them to occupy a less space, &c. To me, however, it ap pears to be accounted for more satisfactorily, by supposing the fluid to insinuate itself between the filaments of the cot ton, and thus permit the latter to occupy no more space than is due to their actual solidity—Journal of Franklin Institute. MAKING COFFEE, By DR. RATIER.—Take four ounces of good coffee, properly roasted and ground. Dilute it in two glasses of cold water, with a spoon. Let it steep all night, covering the vessel which contains it. Next day pour this pap with care on fine linen placed in a glass funnel in a bot tle. You have an extremely strong infusion, of which a sin gle spoonful, poured in a cup of boiling milk, is sufficient to give the whole a delightful perfume. One part of this infu sion and two parts of water, put on the fire until it boils, -gives a water coffee of a superb colour and perfect taste. It may indeed be conceived, that coffee, treated cold, may not have parted with every portion of its aromatic principle. N 0..., can cold water draw from coffee all that can be obtain ed from it ? answer yes: approvea by expe•ri....enec. iva I have tried the process related above with boiling and with cold water, and I have assured myself by comparison,- that the powder, drained by the cold water, and treated then with boiling water, gave nothing but a water slightly tinted with yellow, and devoid of odour and flavour. It is besides pro per to pass an equal quantity of water to the first, over the grounds, in order that the second water may serve for new powder. There is thus both economy of fuel and time, since the operation is done at once, and constantly succeeds if done is the same manner. This process is not spoilt in the boiling, nor can it frequently overflow, as in the apparatus called Marize, and others which answer the purpose well, but are expensive to purchase, and require repairs. As for my self, two small decanters of glass, and a funnel of the same material, compose all my apparatus. One of the decanters contains the prepared coffee, and has a ground stopper. The other, in which the funnel is placed, receives the second Water, and in its turn contains the coffee, and thus both are used in succession : all the care required is in passing a little water through them at times. Every person who has tasted . my coffee, whether made with water or with milk, has found it of a superior quality. I am astonished that so simple a process has not been adopted. For the coffee houses it would have the great advantage of always having coffee ready made, not by adding water to the milk, which contains enough already, or making the coffee from hand to mouth, but in a manner which none of the qualities sought for by true ama teurs are lost. I .may here mention, that the process was au sgested to me in reading a memoir of M. Boullay, apothe cary at Paris, • upon the preparation of tinctures ar d extracts by a method' which he calls " deplac,ement."—Quarterly Journal of Agriculture. CAST IRON, STEEL, &c.—ln a paper read at the late meeting at the British Association, at Birmingham, " On the relative combinations of the constitutents of cast iron, steel, and malleable iron," by. Dr. Charles Schafhaeutl, of Munich, the author stated that pure iron could not be wel ded ' • that the welding power of iron depended on its alloy with the carburet of silicon, and also that the good and vari ous qualities of all the wrought irons depended on the alloys of pure iron with other metallic bodies ' • and that the presence of most of the electro-negative metals had been generally overlooked in the existing analysis of iron. The presence of arsenic in 'Swedish steel, when forged red-hot, could be ascer tained by its smell, as well as in the Low Moor iron. The usual solution of iron under analysis, in order to separate those metals from the iron, must be, for the necessary cor rection, divided into two parts, —one to be treated with a current of sulphurettecl hydrogen, the other part dropped into sulphydrate of ammonia, and carefully digested. A small quantity of siliCa was more difficult to separate from a large quantity of iron, than generally seemed to be believed ' • and the whole amount of carbon could only be ascertained by Berzelius's method of burning iron in a. current of oxygen, or mixed with chlorate of potash and chromate of lead in a glass tube, used first by Berzelius for analysis of organic bodies. The author maintained that steel vas entirely me chanical production of the ferge.hammer, which tore the molecules of certain species of white cast iron out of their original position, into which the forces of attraction, in respect to the centres as well as to the position of the mole cules, had arranged those molecules by the slow action of heat. Steel, as it came out of the converting furnace or the crucible, was nothing more or less than white cast iron, of which Indian steel, called Wootz, was the fairest specimen. The author finally gave an analysis of two specimens of cast iron and one of steel. The first specimen was French grey iron, from Vienne, department de l'lsere, obtained from a mixture of pea-iron with red hematite by means of coal from Rive de Gier. and heated air, specific gravity 6.898. The second iron was Welsh iron, from the tin-plate manu factory of the Maesteg Ironworks, near Neath, in South Waits, obtained from a mixture of clay iron-stone and Cum berland red ore, by means of coke and heated air. It was silvery white, without signs of crystallization ; specific gravity 7.467. The third specimen was the fragment of a razor forged in the author's presence, in the workshop oLMr. Rodgers, of Sheffield, of the . specific gravity of 7.92. Seve ral gentlemen, among whom were some connected with the iron trade, expressed a high sense of the value of this com munication, from which it appeared that the peculiarities of Swedish iron, in a great degree, depended on the presence of arsenic, and those of Russian iron on the presence of phos phorus,—Athenaeum. A SMUGGLER ' S SCHEME.—Soon after another ingenious scheme was hit upon by the " fair traders" of Eastbourne. Disguising themselves like shepherds, who are accustomed to employ the time during which their flocks are grazing upon the Downs, by descending the precipicess ss not, as Shakspcare says, " to gather samphire," but to Obtain the eggs of sea birds, or to rob the falcon of its young—the smugglers, un observed, dug a platform in the face of the cliff immediately under Beachy Head. Two of them laboured for seven suc cessive days in excavating and levelling this spot, at a height of 300 feet above the sea ; and as this operation was carried on by day, without any attempt a concealment, and there was no means of approaching, or even of getting a view of the place, except by being lowered 200 or 300 feet over the pre cipipe, it was supposed that they were engaged in collecting eggs, and no further notice taken of the matter. Having therefore completed the work, three or four of the gang de scended unobserved to the platform, where they remained perched till dark ; and at high water, when the blockade sen tinels left the beach, a boat rowed to the foot of the precipica immediately under the platform, to which her cargo was lei surely transferred by pulleys ; and the smugglers, lowering each other by the same means into the boat, went off to East bourne with their comrades, leaving their contraband goods securely stowed upon the platform. During the whole of this proceeding, the preventive men were unconsciously pacing the edge of the cliff above, at too great a height to hear what was doing, even if they had entertained suspicion of the stratagem ; and when the tide had receded sufficient to admit of their descending to the beach, the boat, with every other trace of the transaction, hid disappeared. The platform, being composed of chalk like the cliff itself, was al together invisible either from the summit or the base cf the promontory, and the smugglers having also taken the pre caution to paint their precautions white, they could not be distinguished from the chalk at any considerable distance. The risk of discovery, therefore, was trifling ; and on the following night the smugglers could, without any interrup tion, hoist_ their goods from the platform to the summit of the cliff, merely taking care to accomplish this at low water, when the preventive sentinels were stationed along the beach below. In this manner several valuable cargoes were im ported, nor would the plan, perhaps, have ever been de tected, but by a direct information which the writer derived from one of the smugglers, who had quarrelled with his com panions. Fifty-six tubs of brandy were found upon the platform when it was thus detected and demolished.— United Service Journal. WORKINGS OF POPERY (From the Dublin Statesman.) The following is a sample of ruffianism worthy of being exposed. E. J. Shirley, M.P., in order to secure education for the children of the tenantry on his estates, procured for them Roman Catholic teachers and the Douay version of the Bible. The priest, named Keon, proscribed the schools, the teachers;and the children. The teachers remonstrated, but in vain, and then appealed to the bishop, but without effect. The following is a copy of the remonstrance addressed by the teachers : TO TUE PEOPLE OF FAE.NEY. Friends and Neighbours,—We, the Roman Catholic teachers in this parish, on the Shirley estate, desirous that you should be acquainted with the circumstance of our having transmitted to the Right Rev. Doctor Kiernan, the following mild and reasonable remonstrance with the Rev. Mr. Keon, and to which, though forwarded nearly three weeks ago, we have not had the favour of a reply—do now consider it a duty due to you, our schools, and ourselves, to give it publicity in our neighbourhood, submitting the entire merits of the case to the exercise . of your good sense and judgment. Magheross, October 3, 1839. (corny.) Magheross, Sept. 14, 1839. TO THE RIGHT REV. DOCTOR KIERNAN, R. C.. BISHOP, &C. My Lord,—We humbly beg to acquaint you, that we waited on your lordship at your residence in CarrickMacross, a few days ago, and being told that you will not be home for a few weeks, we now beg to inform your lordship by post, with the object of our having called on you ; namely, to apprise your lordship of our humble remonstrance with the Rev. Mr. peon, and to entreat your 'lordship to use your authority over him, to cease his bitter and unlawful persecution pf us and our schools, and to earnestly request that an unprotracted assurance to that effect, be given to us, by his reverence in reply. With all due respect to the person and calling of your lordship, we are, my lord, your lordship's most obedi ent, humble servants, the Roman Catholic teachers of this parish, undersigned in the accompanying expostulation. TO THE OFFICIATING ROMAN CATHOLIC CLERGY OF THE PARISH OF MAGHEItOSS. We, the undersigned, Roman Catholic teachers on the estate of the Evelyn John Shirley, Esq., situate in the parish of Magheross, do hereby solemnly and publicly testify that we knew of no cause or reason, whatever, why we, the chil dren, and the parents of the children who attend our schools, are prosecuted by the Rev. Mr. Keon, and debarred from their religious rites; and our schoo!s incessantly denounced from the altar, save and except this be considered the cause by that rev. gentleman, namely,,that of having some copies of the Douay or Rhemish Testament, in which we permit the children to read one day in the ; which Testament, it is needless to observe, is the selfsame which the Rev. Mr. Kean sells at ls. 6d. a-piece. Furthermore, as sincere and faithful members of the Church in which we were brought up, as that rev. gentleman himself, we beg to protest against such prosecution, entirely unmerited on our parts, and ut terly unbecoming a minister of the gospel of peace, and which compels us to give public worship, distant from our homes, in order to avoid the abusive and opprobrious epithets, which the Rev. Mr. Keon uses towards us, our schools, and scholars, on the Lord's day in the public con gregation, and within the House of God. Furthermore, we invite that reverend gentleman, accompanied with any two respectable men of the parish of Mageross, agreed on by him and us, to visit our schools when—and as often as he chooses ; and if any book, in the least derogatory, or Ton tradictory to our church, be found, let this be the agreement —viz., that we forthwith pay the sum of £5 to such two re spectable men, to be distributed to the poor of the parish ; and if such book or books be not found, then, that the Rev. Mr. Keon pay the same sum forthwith, for every school so visited by him. In conclusion, we beg leave to ask the Rev. Mr. Keon, why we are prosecuted in this parish for reading OUR OWN VERSION of the Holy Scriptures, when in the next parish, and upon the same estate, the Rev. Mr. Boylan, permits and consents to the scholars and their parents reading the same Parish of MaghcrOss, Sept.9th, 1839.

The Sad of Marseilles, dated the 3d instant, states, that the quantity of Merchandise contained in the custom-house of Salonica, and consumed by the late fire, amounted to 50,000,000 piasters (500,000.) The Sud publishes the following letter, dated Alexandria, September the 16th We are still awaiting the decision of Europe respecting Turko-Egyptian affairs ; but we are beginning to think that the Powers will ultimately be obliged to let the Osmanlis settle their differences themselves, or, in other words, under the direct influence of Russia. It is truly deplorable that our diplomacy, in its heedless confidence, should not have foreseen the impossibility of carrying into execution its silly plan of intervention. Had the Turks been permitted to ad just their own quarrel, all would now be settled for the best, and the people of the East would not be aware of the great in fluence exercised over their country by Russia, and inextri cable complication would not have been added to the already existing difficulties. Each new imbroglio turns to the ad vantage of Russia and England ; France should be on her guard against the appearance of good faith, which certain Powers wish her to regard as sincere ' • acting as she is with frankness, she must necessarily end by being their dupe. The simplicity and credulity of some of our agents abroad are de plorable in that respect. After the departure of the last piwket, Mehemet Ali formally declared that if the Powers did not shortly adopt a resolution, he•should be obliged to order his army to march forward, the present situation of af fairs being ruinous and intolerable for both parties. "The Viceroy was seriously ill from the 10 to the 14th inst. The spasms, with which he was affected at the time of the massacre of the Mamelukes, returned about six weeks hence, but without any serious symptoms ; latterly, how ever, the malady manifested itself with considerable intensity, after a violent lit of passion. He was several times bled by M. Caluci, who treated him during the absence of Gaetani -Uey, his physician. A telegra , thic despatch recalled the latter trona yesterday better, and even considered out of danger. " The cause-which brought about Mehemet Ali's illness is not without interest. It is said that some coolness has of late existed between Bogoos Bey and the Viceroy, who, at the instigation of some informer, demanded from him a gene ral account of the situation of his kingdom. This account, it appears, did not satisfy the Pasha, who required another, drawn up on a plan which he himself laid down for his minis ter. The second account was accordingly prepared and pre sented ; it ekhibited a surplus of 800,000 talaris, but Mehemet Ali having closely examined it, discovered that a number of very large debts had been omitted, which, when paid, would leave a deficit of nearly 4,000,000 talaris. The Viceroy went into a violent rage, loaded Boghos Bey with the most oppro brious epithets, and dismissed several high chiefs of the ad ministration. " Mehemet Ali has written a second letter to the Sultana Valide, earnestly calling her attention to the demands he had made, and his agent in Constantinople has written him to the following effect : " ' The sultana could not give me a letter. She bids me inform yoti that Khosrew Pasha watches her so closely that it is impossible for her to write. The harem is tilled with spies, who apprise him of everything that is done and said; and all the personages who formerly were admitted into it no longer enjoy that privilege. The physicians themselves are accompanied everywhere by eunuchs named by the Sadrazan. The Sultana, however, promises to intercede most warmly in favour of the objects you mention in your last letter; but she does not indulge the hope of seeing Khosrew Pasha vacate the direction oraffairs, for he has lately replaced a number of high functionaries who were not his creatures. She men tions, on the other hand, that the Sadrazan does not stand well with the body of the Ulemas, who are indignant at his committing the management of the affairs of the empire to Christian powers.' The Augsburg Gazette of the 3d instant gives, under the head of '• Frontiers of Servia," 21st ult., the terms of the reply which we yesterday stated Prince Milosch had received from the cabinet of St. Petersburgh. The following is a translation of it The Russian Government cannot hesitate to consider the abdication of the Prince as perfectly legal. lie would act wisely in conforming to it, and in reintaning satisfied to spend the remainder of his days in repose and In the sweets of pri vate life ; and especially in abstaining from occasioning em barrassments to his son Michael, the present Sovereign of Servia, by an inconsiderate or rash attempt, &c." Prince Michael was expected in Belgrade. His father was to ac company him as far as the frontiers of Servia. It is expected that the Norwich musical festival will pro duce a clear profit of £lOOO for charitable purposes. MEETING OF POLICY HOLDERS-IN THE NORWICH UNION SOCIETY.—A meeting of insurers in this office, convened by Mr. George Blyth, a member of the London committee of policy holders, was held at the Royal Hotel, Manchester, on Monday, for the purpose of considering the propriety of signinr , a requisition to Mr. S. Bignold, the secretary, calling .upon him to convene a general, meeting of members of the society, to be held in London, in order to deliberAte respect ing some proposed changes in the constitution and by-laws thereof. Mr. Joseph Armstrong having been called to the chart-, Mr. Blyth stated the objects the London committee had in view in deputin g him, and considerable discussion took place, in which Mr. Miller, agent to the Norwich Union office in Liverpool ' • Mr. Higson, agent in Manchester ; r. J. E. Tailor, Mr. R. H. Wilson, Mr. Bagshaw, Mr. E. C. Milne, Mr. Thomas Higson, and other gentlemen took part. There was a strong feeling that it was high time the report of the examiners appointed at a former meeting should be Made ; butit appearing by a,letpr.from Mr. Francis Lloyd, of Birmingham, one of the -- examiners, addressed to Mr:- Miller, and dated Friday last, that its publication might be almost immediately expected, the majority of the meeting agreed to abstain from taking any proceeding to call for the summoning of a meeting previous to the end of November next, in the expectation that before that time the report would be presented. Several gentlemen however, we believe, signed the requisition, for the purpose of causing the earlier assembling of the parties interested ; 'and several others signed a second requisition, calling upon the secretary to furnish what he has hitherto refused, viz., a list of the names and residences of the policy holders. A resolution in favour of this requisition was passed by the meeting, as was also another resolution for the appointment of a committee, who are to be nominated at a meeting of insurers to be called for the purpose, so soon asthc report of the examiners shall have been made. INDIAN NAVY.—The Company, taking advantage of the increase of steam navigation in our own navy, and in that of other Powers, have caused three vessels to be built for the protection of our trade in the east, which are now fitting out in the East India Docks, and will proceed to their stations about the latter end of the month. They are about 800 tons each. The Queen, intended for Bengal, was built at the same yard whence the British Queen was launched ; and the President, her rival, is building ; the - Cleopatra and Sesos. tfis, for Bombay, at Northtket. The two former have round, and the latter a square stern, and will be armed with very heavy metal. It is to be hoped they will fully answer the purpose for which they arc intended7-the protection of our trade, and the extirpation of piraey;for which the Indian Seas have so long been noted ;, and where 'although the East Indian Company have always had an extensive naval force, yet, from the prevalence of certain winds• at particular seasons, and the frequent occurrence of calms in those lati tudes, the pirates in their row-boats have Often baffled their pursuers in very swift sailing vessels. — Times. IMPROVEMENT IN SMELTING COPPER.—MT. Charles Schafhult; of London, has just obtained a patent.for an im proved method of smelting copper ore. To overcome the great difficulty of calcining, he proposes that the copper ore be mixed with quick lime, as one would make morter, and salt or chloride of sodium introduced to prevent the develope ment of smoke, as well as to facilitate the process of.smelting. To five portions of copper ore, put one and a half of quick lime, and one of salt. The mixture is to be put into the trough, which conveys it to the heated surface of the smelt ing furnace; and to prevent the escape of noxious particles, the damper must be pressed, and the draught doors closed, this compelling the atmospheric air to pass the chamber ef the heated copper, had carry with it the noxious particles, to mix with the steam and water under the furnace, the vapour escaping through another passage, to be condensed. Sea sand with shells in it, or anthracite, or stone-coal, should be thrown on the scoria, or slack, until it becomes sufficient ly silicated, and allows the copper to sink. The mass of red hot copper is then allowed to run into the water under the furnace, where it is to be washed. TIDE TABLE. Days. i ?Urn. r Bun. Height. .M. IT. M. F. i.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, OCT. 10. There has been a fair inquiry both from the trade and exporters, which has enabled holders to obtain fully the prices of last week The sales on Tuesday were 5,000 bales, 2.000 for export; on Wed. nesday, 4,000 bales, 1,000 for export; and to-day about 4,000 bales, 500 bales for exportation, chiefly American. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, OCT. 8. The weather having been uniformly fine since Friday, harvest in the North, where so much injury has been sustained, is now actively progressing with the prospect of an earlier conclusion than was previously predicted. We have very few arrivals fresh in for to day, those specified having been chiefly up on Friday : during the week ending 3rd inst., however, duties were paid here upon the following quantities of Foreign produce, viz. 80,999 cps. Wheat, 40 qrs. Barley, 513 qrs. Oats, 1665 qrs. Rye, 818 qrs. Beans, 887 qrs. Pease, and ig,oofi barrels of Flour, forming ample provision of the two great leading articles for this day's market. These augmenta tions added to the stock of free produce, so far from having de pressd, have rather given a lively impulse to the Wheat trade ; and with a good attendance of buyers, the transactions this morning were tolerably extensive in most descriptions of Foreign, at nearly the advance of Friday; whilst English and Irish old Wheats hardly exceeded the rates of this day week:, and new, coming to hand in ferior to prior deliveries, were decidedly 3d per 701 b. cheaper.—lrish and home-made Flour, although scarce, was nominally lower; but Foreign, upon a (air demand, fully maintained former prices. Having no good Barley remaining, such would readily command our last quotations ; and fine Malt, being scarce, was Is per qr. dearer. In Beans and Pease we have no change note. Old Oats, upon a limited demand, were somewhat depressed in value ; and all kinds of new were extremely difficult of sale, at a decline of 4d @ 63 per 451 b from the currency of this day se'nnight.—Oatmeal was also in very slow request at an abatement of 2s CFO 3s per 240th.
