laottrp. ENGLAND ! ARISE, ARISE ! " The days of my childhood are flown ; The places, so hallowed by youth, Are now in an alien's hand, Who regards neither virtue nor truth ; " My country, alas ! is no more ; For when in the hour of her pride. She spurned at the Protestant faith, Her fathers had fought for and died." Words such as these shall compose The cry of the exile from home, When he hears that Britannia is ruled by a priest, And her Sov'reign is chosen at Rome. Haste, Luther and Latimer, wake ! Shake off your deep sleep, and arise ! Teach Britons to " gird up their loins," — To their danger awaken their eyes. 0 England ! how long will you lie So dormant in torpor and sin ! Lo ! the foe is assaulting the gate— There are traitors already within. Let the shout of " No Popery" sound ; Let " Compromise" nowhere be seen ; Make Antichrist speedily fly From our senate, our court, and our Queen. O Britons ! stand fast in the faith Your forefathers sealed with their blood ; Drive enemies forth from your camp, And fight for your Church and your God ! Then the land shall have rest from her foes, Prosperity long shall attend her ; God shall give us his increase and blessing, While to him our sole praises we render. ANON. HOSANNA TO THE SON OF DAVID. When his salvation bringing, To Zion Jesus came, The children all stood singing, Hosanna to his name ; Nor did their zeal offend him, But, as he rode along, He bade them still attend him, And smiled to hear their song. And since the Lord retaineth His love for children still, Though now as King he reigneth On Zion's heavenly hill, We 'll flock around his banner, Who sits upon the throne, And cry aloud, Hosanna To David's royal Son. For should we fail proclaiming Our great Redeemer's praise, The stones, our silence shaming, Would their hosannas raise. But shall we only render The tribute of our words ? No ! while our lips are tender, They too shall be the Lord's. CONTEMPORARY PRESS. A NEW COLLEGE IN DUBLIN. (From the Dublin Statesman and Record.) A correspondent of the Warder states that the plan of a separate divinity college in Dublin, which we heard of some time ago, has been revived, and that the Archbishop of Dublin has actually obtained a charter for it ! We hope on every account this may not be true; but we live in times when every thing anti-Pro testant may be apprehended. However, we have no fear of not , being, able to defeat this treacherous at tempt. But we shall not waste our strength in com bating a shadow; therefore shall for the present con tent ourselves by giving further circulation to the mere statement. It is contained in the subjoined extract : " A charter for the Kevin-street College is at this moment engrossed, and waiting only for the royal signature. That charter establishes a new divinity college, separate from and independent of our national university, under the imposing title of Victoria Hall! Of this fact you need not have the smallest doubt. I believe it to be the case that this charter would now. be actually signed, and the entire project carried into effect without one word of notice to the Protestant peo ple of this country, had it not been for the intervention of a whig but virtuous prelate whose influence with the govern ment obtained a respite, that the university might have time to express an opinion on the subject. Perhaps it will scarcely be credited that so much has been done in perfect secrecy ; it, nevertheless, is true. Secrecy was, from the beginning, the very characteristic of this plan. Suspicious enough in itself, it becomes st 11 more so from the clandestine manner in which it has been matured. " The project of 1834, which then was defeated by the op position of the Protestants of the country, is now revived. The education of our clergy, whether we will or not, is to be placed in the hands of men in whom we have no confidence, and, their religious education being removed from the na tional university, the necessity of its essential Protestantism is to be destroyed. My object, however, is to state plain facts, not to comment upon them. The Archbishop of Dub lin has actually obtained the charter of his new college—Vic toria Hall. Archbishop Usher, when he persuaded Queen Elizabeth to found an University here, suggested to the pious princess to dedicate it to the honour of no human being. But this was in the olden time of prejudiee and bigotry. Archbishop Whateley shows a wise conformity to the spirit of the age, when lie advises his royal mistress to call her college by the name of no solemn mystery of our faith, but by her own. Victoria Hall is to have its professors and its teachers to make up the complete apparatus of an university. The charter provides the mode of their appointment. The Lord Lieutenant is to have the absolute appointment of a board of directors or governors, and this board are to exa mine for professorships. If unanimous in their choice, they have the election ; but if a difference arise, the names of all the candidates are to be submitted to the Lord Lieutenant, and be is to nominate the professor. If, therefore, in a board of his own selection, the Lord Lieutenant can find but one person to vote for the government candidate, the profes sorships are a part of the patronage of the government. The college, be it remembered, is intended for the special educa tion of the clergy of our church. The professors, who are tp instruct them, are to be nominated by Lord Ebtington and Mr. O'Connell. The college is to have the power of acquiring property, to be vested in three trustees ; the trus tees are named in the charter. They are to be, for ever, the Archbishop of Dublin, the Lord Lieutenant, and the Rev. James Wilson, .for the time being—so runs the charter— whether it is meant to confer an immortality, by royal pa tent, upon Dr. Wilson, the individual, or Dr. Wilson, the representative of the class, I know not. " The Archbishop of Dublin must again yield to the op position that defeated him in 1835. I, at least, have done my duty in sounding the alarm. —I am, sir, your very obe dient servant, ACADEMICUS." In addition to this—for, according to the old saying, " it never' rains but it pours"—the Warder states that old Trinity is to be papalised by throwing open her scholarships and fellowships to Papists. But, as to this, we should expect it. It is evidently part of the plan : the one is but a step to the other. But let them fire their double-barrelled gun. We shall not be hurt, and shall return the fire to the enemy's damage. We quote from our contemporary : " We have been told that it is the intention of ministers to issue a queen's letter, altering the statutes of Trinity Col lege, so as to admit Roman Catholics to fellowships and scholarships. " We must guard ourselves by repeating that, although we have reason to believe this information, we do not pledge ourselves to its truth. It would indeed, be the consumma tion of the Kevin-street plan—and if that plan be carried into effect, it must of course be realized. Every thing, in fact, is tending to make Ireland a popish country ; and the temporising policy of conservatives is not the least element conducing to such an end. " The opening of College to Roman Catholics has been long a favourite object with that party. Whether it could be accomplished without an act of parliament, may be a question : but it seems to be the better opinion, that the act of 1793 preserves but does not enact a disability—and the exclusion resting on the college statutes, which may be changed at the pleasure of the crown, may be abrogated by a queen's letter. That the attempt will be made we have strong reason to suspect." SELECT EXTRACTS. A COCKNEY TRANSLATION. —Here Jack, my boy, l've got a hit of French I want you to translat e f or me . It ain't hard, is it pa? inquired the juvenile genius. Hard! ex claimed the ex-representative of the collective wisdom of the Cockneys, what do you mean by that ? didn't I go to the ex pense of twelve lessons for you is that there tongue, w h en M. Vantrien promised to perfect you in six, so that you might be super-extra-double-perfect in it? so out with your eddi cation now, and let's know the English for " Labor vincit" in French. Why, that ain't French, replied the premature prodigy, that's Latin. Well, it's all the same, returned the renowned dealer in paper and patriotism, what's the Engli s h for it? For "labour vincit?" responded the infantine ex supervisor of stationery, why, " labour vins it," I suppose. THE FIRST LANCASHIRE NEWSPAPER.—There is still in existence a copy of "Byres's Weekly Journal, or the War rington Advertiser," said to be the first newspaper pub lished in the great county of Lancaster. The copy alluded to, which is in the possession of a gentleman residing in Latchford, is " No. 19," and gives the news " From Tues day, July 20th, to Tuesday, July 27th, 1756." It was printed and published by Thomas and William Eyres, of Warrington ; and attached to one corner is the halfpenny newspaper stamp of that period. It measures 22 inches by 15 inches, and is divided into four pages of three columns each ; the whole being not quite so large as one of the pages of the smallest Manchester newspapers of the present date: Two rude wood engravings adorn the title page ; one repre senting a man on horseback— " The herald of a noisy world, " With spattered boots, strapped waist, and frozen locks, q News from all nations lumbering at his back." The other a ship in full sail. The first article in the War rington Advertiser consists of " Maxims extracted from a book lately published, entitl e d ' M ax i ms , Ch arac t ers , and Reflections,' " &c., of which two of the maxims will give a sufficient specimen,—" As some poisonous animals carry about them an antidote to their own venom, so do most people for the offence they give, by slight, hatred, and con tempt." " A thorough good Newmarket Jockey would have been a good minister of state, if he had been trained for it." The second article is devoted to Thursday Post, which con tains news from Amsterdam, to July 6th, and from Paris to July Bth. " Plantation News," forms the next full head line. The news from Philadelphia bears the date of May 31st, and gives certain particulars of the movement of the British army in America. From " Ireland," is an account of the further prorogation of the British parliament from the 20th of July, to the 21th day of August, then to meet at Dub lin for the dispatch of business." Under the head " Scot land" is announced the arrival of two ships from the Green land fishery, with seven fish. From London" is an nounced various foreign army and naval operations, and then comes " Saturday's Post,' bringing " plantation news" from Antigua 30 late as May 11th. The next and last article gives the ' arrivals at Liverpool" during the week pre ceding the day of publication, which are as follow :—The Fanny, from Barbadoes ; Tyger, Jamaica; Ogden, Jamaica ; Jonathan, North Carolina ; Stephen, Rotterdam : Mary, Wexford; Markuryings, Amsterdam ; Lady Alicia, do. ; Two Friends, 'Wexford. No attention seems to have been paid to the recording of local events, or to the general news of the country—th e whole paper being taken up with foreign matters. At the bottom of the imprint, it is announced that " advertisements are taken in," but none are inserted in the number before us. In point of typography, the paper is got up with great accuracy, and throughout there does not ap . ~1 , , pear to be a single literal —even so much as a space or a letter 4 6 .

GIVING AND GRATITUDE.—" You might as reasonably expect," said the old miller, "to grease mill-wheels with brick-dust, as expect to make others feel without feeling yourself. There is, therefore, a wide and deep gulf of error and consequent disappointment, giving and gratitude."— Florestan, or the New Lord of the Maeor, DEATH OF AN OLD COUNTRY NEIGHBOUR.—Matthew Pollen is dead. Every body expected he would die : and yet, now he is gone, all the neighbourhood is affected with a kind of surprise that he should be dead. Every one perceives also that his range of thought has suddenly become limited ; and there is, with many, an impression of having been suddenly thrown into an unaccustomed path, and in strange society, on first entering upon a state of existence beyond the point at which a long parallel current of life has been arrested. What may be passing in the house of the deceased is not for those who are without to know ; but abroad, the habitudes of all are more or less disturbed ; and the objects of our most frequent thoughts seem unwilling, at the mere bidding of reason, to be arranged under new affinities. The most fa miliar things appear to be invested with a kind of strangeness on those occasions ; especially in rural life. A gate shall be harder to push open than formerly, and shall clap to, after the passenger, with an unwonted and startling solemnity. In the short and-circular flights of pigeons, the fanning of their wings conveys a mysterious sound of articulated lamentation. That loss of nocturnal repose, too, which sympathizers suffer, induces a sense of chilliness in the atmosphere. Oxen and sheep appear to ruminate with more than their usual placidity. The dog, one of the most sensitive of animals, trotting by the side of his master, looks up into his face, as he catches his occasional mutterings, and after the passage of a stile, endea vours to present to him both his nose and tail at the same instant, in token of that sympathy which his master's unex plained perturbation and loneliness of manner appear to de mand of him. There is a moping gait in people moving up and down the dusky margins of distant hedges ; and trees, woods, steeples, rocks, and the cloud resting upon, or skirt ing along, the ridge of hills which bounds the horizon—all appear silent and solitary, as if cognizant of an intimation that had gone abroad.—Fiorestan, or the New Lord of the Manor. THE STOCK BROKER.—The stock-broker is either ahull or a bear—fanciful designations ! Would you fain know, dear uninitiated reader, why he is thus playfully and zoologi cally ranged ? It is the nature of the bull to toss—for proof, look up, and see yon retributive drover in the air ! It is the nature of the bear to pull " with downward drag austere"— witness the fate of Antigonus, in " The Winter's Tale," as related by the Clown. "Will that humour pass ?" as Nym says. The bull, then, speculates upon a rise in stock—the bear upon a fall. But should the bull get his horns entan gled, or the bear singe his paws, while he is endeavouring to make himself warm, he is forthwith transformed ; or, as Peter Quince currently reported of Bully Bottom, he is " translated " into one of your tame villatic fowl ; and a fowl, too, with an unhappy disqualification in one of his legs ; in other words, he becomes " a lame duck." Some, with more love of metaphor and ornithology, term him a waddler. Should any one be curious enough to wish to see either these bulls, or these bears, let him by no means enter their den in Chapel-court, Bartholomew-lane. Lack of sedentary em ployment renders them sportive and frolicsome, and the pre vailing humour pervades both old and young. They are all wags of the first water—practical Joe Millers. If kicking a stranger's hat about the exchange were pleasant badinage, or unceremoniously shouldering the intruder, were agreeable banter, they might pass for wits. As it is, they are great in physical repartee ; full of animal spirits—manual Sheridans. But, if he will plant himself near the bottom of Bank Build ing, he may see some of the lay brothers of the establishment (who are not members of the Stock Exchange) rushing to consult the consul-thermometer ' hung forth at the house at the corner ; and if the financial Mercury be high or low, as the case may happen, he will hear the bull roar, and the bear growl, to his heart's content.—" Heads of the People." TRAITS OF JUNE.—Now the rosy (and lazy) fingered Aurora, issuing from her saffron house, calls up the moist vapours to surround her, and goes veiled with them as long as she can ; till Phoebus, coming forth in his power, looks everything out of the sky, and holds sharp uninterrupted empire from his throne of beams. Now the mower begins to make his sweeping cuts more slowly, and resorts oftener to the beer. Now the carter sleeps a-top of his load of hay, or plods with double slouch of shoulder, looking out with eyes winking under his shading hat, and with a hitch upward of one side of his mouth. Now the little girl at her grand mother's cottage-door watches the coaches that go by, with her hand held up over her sunny forehead. Now labourers look well, resting in their white shirts at the doors of rural alehouses. Now an elm is fine there with a seat under it ; and horses drink out of the trough, stretching their yearning necks with loosened collars ; and the traveller calls for his glass of ale, having been without one for more than ten mi nutes ; and his horse stands wincing at the flies, giving sharp shivers of his skin, and moving to and fro his ineffectual docked tail ; and now Miss Betty Wilson, the host's daugh ter, comes streaming forth in a flowered gown and ear-rings, carrying with four of her beautiful fingers the foaming glass, for which, after the traveller drinks it, she receives with an indifferent eye, looking another way, the lawful twopence ; that is to say, unless the traveller, nodding his ruddy face, pays some gallant compliment to her before he drinks, such as " I'd rather kiss you, my dear, than the tumbler !" or " I'll wait for you, my love, if you'll marry me ?" upon which, if the man is good-looking, and the lady in good hu mour, she smiles and bites her lips, and says, " Ah ! men can talk fast enough !" upon which the old stage-coachman, who is buckling something near her before he sets off, says in a hoarse voice, " So can women too, for that matter !" and John Boots grins through his ragged red locks, and doats on the repartee all the day after. Now grasshoppers " fry," as Dryden says. Now cattle stand in water, and ducks are envied. Now boots and shoes, and trees by the road side, are covered with dust ; and dogs rolling in it after issuing out of the water, into which they have been thrown to fetch sticks, come scattering horror among the legs of the specta tors. Now a fellow who finds he has three miles farther to go in a pair of tight shoes is in a pretty situation. Now rooms with the sun upon theinjiecome intolerable ; and the apothecary's apprentice, with a Mterness beyond aloes, thinks of the pond he used to bathe in at school. Now men with powdered heads (especially if thick) envy those that are un powdered, and stop to wipe them up hill, with countenances that seem to expostulate with destiny. Now boys assemble round the village pump with a ladle to it, and delight to make a forbidden splash, and get wet through the shoes. Now also they make suckers of leather, and bathe all day long in rivers and ponds, and follow the fish into their cool corners, and say millions of " My eyes !" at tittle-bats. Now the bee, as he hums along, seems to be talking heavily of the heat. Now doors and brick walls are burning to the hand ; and a walled lane, with dust and broken bottles in it, near a brick-field, is a thing not be thought of. Now a green lane; on the con trary, thick set with hedge-row elms, and having the noise of a brook " rumbling in pebbly stone," is one of the pleasantest things in the world. Now youths and damsels walk through hay-fields by chance : and the latter say, " Ha' done then William !" and the overseer in the next field calls out to "Jet thic thear hay there bide ;" and the girls persist, merely to plague " such a frumpish old fellow." Now, in town, gossips talk more than ever to one another, in rooms, in doorways, and out of windows, always beginning the conversation with saying that the heat is overpowering. Now blinds are let down, and doors are thrown open, and flannel waistcoats left off, and cold meat preferred to hot, and wonder expressed why tea is so refreshing ; and people delight to sliver lettuces into bowls, and apprentices water doorways with tin canisters that lay several atoms of dust. Now the water-cart, jum bling along the middle of the streets, and jolting the showers out of its box of water, really does something. Now boys delight to have a water-pipe let out, and set it bubbling away in a tall and frothy column. Now fruiterers' shops and dairies look pleasant, and ices are the only things to those who can get them. Now ladies loiter in baths, and people make presents of flowers, and wine is put into ice, and the after-dinner lounger recreates his head with applications of perfumed water out of long-necked bottles. Now the lounger, who cannot resist riding his new horse, feels his boots burn him. Now buck-skins are not the lawn of Cos. Now jockeys, walking in great-coats to lose flesh, curse inwardly. Now five fat people in a stage coach hate the sixth fat one who is coming in, and think he has no right to be so large. Now clerks in offices do nothing but drink soda water and spruce beer, and read the newspaper. Now the old-clothes man drops his solitary cry more deeply into the areas of the hot and forsaken side of the street ; and bakers look vicious ; and cooks are aggravated ; and the steam of a tavern kitchen catches hold of one like the breath of Tartu-us. Now delicate skins are beset with gnats ; and boys make their sleeping comanion start up with playing a burnin g - g l ass on hi s h an d ; and blacksmiths are super-carbonated ; and cobblers in their stalls almost feel a wish to be transplanted ; and butter is too easy to spread ; and the dragoons wonder whether the Romans liked their helmets ; and old ladies with their lappets un pinned walk along in a state of dilapidation ; and the servant maids are afraid they look vulgarly hot ; and the author, who has a plate of strawberries brought him, finds that he has come to the ends of his writing.—lndicator. PROBABLE EFFECTS OF STEAM IN FUTURE WARS. — An opinion is becoming prevalent, that the use of steam will supersede the old mode of conducting naval warfare. Like most novel and bold propositions, this new doctrine has ob tained advocates, who have yielded their convictions to the influence of their imaginations, rather than to the influence of reflection. That the use of steam will materially modify naval warfare, is probably true ; but it cannot change its ge neral character. No vessel can be built of sufficient force and size to transport a sufficiency of fuel, provisions, muni tions of war, and guns, to contend with a heavy frigate, allowing the ast to bring her broadside to bear. It may be questioned if the heavieit steam-vessel of war that. exists could engage a modern two-decked ship even in a calm, since the latter, in addition to possessing much greaterpowers of endurance, could probably brin g th e gli ins to bear in all pos sible positions. Shot-proof batteries might indeed be built, that propelled by steam, would be exceedingly formidable for harbour defence, but it is altogether illusory to suppose that vessels of that description can ever be made to cruize. Even in estimating the power of steam-vessels in calms, as opposed to single ships of no great force, there is much ex aggeration, as historical facts will amply prove. The wars of this country aflbrd several instances of frigates carrying eighteen pounders lying exposed to the cannonade of fifteen or twenty gun-boats for two or three hours, and yet in no instance has any such vessel been either captured or destroyed. It is a heavy sea-steamer that can bring six guns to bear at a time, and yet frigates have resisted twenty guns, advantage ously placed, for hours.. It may be said that steamers would dare to approach nearer than gun-boats, and that, by obtain ing more favourable positions, they will be so much the more formidable. There is but one position in which a ship can be assailed without the means of resistance, and that is directly a-head, and from a situation near by. Large ships can hardly be said to be defenceless even under these circumstances : as the slighest variation in their position would always admit of their bringing three or four heavy guns to bear. The ex pedients of seamen offer a variety of means of changing the direction of a ship's head in calms, even did not the sea itself perform that office for them. Nothing, for instance, would be easier than to rig, temporarily, wheels, to be propelled by hand out of the stern or bow ports, or even qn the quarter, that would bring a large ship's forward or after guns to bear, in a way to beat off or destroy a steamer. There are certain great principles that are unchangeable, and which must prevail under all circumstances. Of this class is the well-established fact, that a ship which possesses the efficiency which is con tained in the double power to annoy and to endure, must, in all ordinary circumstances, prevail over a ship that possesses but one of these advantages, and that too in a smaller degree. Steam may be, and most probably will b e , ma d e a power f u l auxiliary of the present mode of naval warfare, but is by no means likely to supplant it. Fleets may be accompanied by steamers, but their warfare will be conducted by the present classes of heavy ships, since it is possible to give sufficient powers of annoyance or endurance to vessels propelled by steam, to enable them to lie under the batteries of the latter. Even as active cruizers, the efficiency of steam-vessels is pro bably overrated, on account of the consumption of fuel, though it remains to be proved by experience whether their employment may not induce a change in the armaments of light vessels of war. The history of the war of 1812 shows that ships have often cruized months without having fallen in with convoys, and it is certain that no steamer, in the pre sent state of science, can remain at sea thirty days, with efficiency as a steamer. In a word, while the introduction of steam into naval warfare will greatly modify maritime operations, it is by no means likely to effect the revolution that is supposed. In those portions of the art of seamanship that it will influence, steam will meet steam, and, in the end, it will be found that the force of fleets will be required in settling the interests of states, as to-day.—Cowper's History of the American War. GRAFTING TREES FOR NEW VARIETIES.—Every propri etor of a landed estate is either a planter, or possesses trees already planted. If he is in the former case, he will learn from this work to combine beauty with utility, by planting, in the outer margins of his natural woods or artificial planta tions, and along the open ridges in them, and in the hedge rows of his lanes and public roads, trees which are at once highly ornamental and more or less useful, in some cases, perhaps, even more useful, that the common indigenous trees for which they are substituted. If, on the other hand, his estate is already fully planted, he will learn, from this work, how he may beautify his plantations by a mode which never yet has been applied, in a general way, to forest trees, viz., by heading down large trees of the common species, and grafting on them foreign species of the same genus. This is a common practice in orchards of fruits ; and why it should not be so in parks, and pleasure grounds, along the margins of woods, and in the trees of hedgerows, no other reason can be assigned than that it has not hitherto been generally thought of. Hawthorn hedges are common everywhere ; and there are between twenty and thirty beautiful species and varieties of thorn in , our nurseries which might be grafted on them. Why should not proprietors of wealth and taste desire their gardeners to graft some of the rare and beautiful sorts of tree thorns on the common hawthorn bushes, at intervals, so as to form standard trees, in such of their hedges as border pub lic roads ? And why should not the scarlet oak and the scarlet acer be grafted, on the common species of these genera, along the margins of woods and plantations ? Such improvements the more strongly recommend themselves, because to many they would involve no extra expense, and in every case the effect would be almost immediate.—Loudon's Arboretum et Fruticetum Britannicum. MISTAKES RESPECTING THE HOTTENTOTS.—NO people have been more oppressed or calumniated than the unfortu nate Hottentot—he has been belied in every point of his body and turn of his mind. I was prepared, upon my arrival, to behold this wonderful race, of which every village fair has one of them to be seen—" A real Hottentot from the Cape of Good Hope, to be seen alive." I never was more astonished ; I walked up one street and down another, in the hope of be holding one of these wonderful animals, and marvelled at my want of success. Guess my surprise, when I had passed hun dreds of them, and did not know it ! Instead of finding the enormous protuberances of which I had heard, I saw many vary good-looking Hottentots—clean limbed, tall, fine-look ing fellows ; their hands and feet well proportioned, and re markably small. In some the nose was African, in others European. Their eyes are of a deep chesnut colour, long and narrow, and, in the Chinese, wide apart; their cheek bones are very high, their teeth small, white, and well set; hair tufty and black ; complexion blackish brown ; expression plaintive ; disposition tractable, patient, indolent, faithful. I do not wish it to be understood that I ever saw a beautiful Hottentot, nor that I ever saw an ugly one • but I was not struck by any want of comeliness , nor disgusted by deformity. The only remarkable thing I saw was, that many of them, as is the case with ill-fed savages, have pot bellies. The name of Hottentot is a fabrication ; it is a word that has no mean ing or place in their language, and they take it to themselves undei - the impression of its being a Dutch word. When the Hottentots were spread over the southern angle of Africa, each horde had its particular name ; but that by which the whole nation was distinguished, and, which, at this moment, they bear among themselves, is Quaique. Indolence is not an invariable characteristic, as is proved by ,the activity of many, in their settlement of Kat River. They are generally employed as shepherds, a calling for which they are admirably adapted. They are by no means deficient in talent, but have little incentive for exerting it. It is a .`great pity that they should have met with such persecutions ; they are, without doubt, a valuable race, and it is to be hoped that, under the present enlightened policy, they may receive protection and encouragement.—Leigh's Southern Australia. THE BEAR AT SCHOOL.—The private journal of a tra veller lately returned from North America to Paris, con. tains the following story. In New Hampshire, on the northern borders of the United States, a peculiar species of bear is found, black in colour, small in size, and in general of a peaceable disposition. These animals live on wild honey and fruits, and never attack man or the lesser animals except ing when pressed by hunger in the very severe winters. On one occasion, some years ago, a boy found a very young bear pup near lake Winnepeg, and carried it home with him. It was fed and brought up about the house of the boy's father, and became as tame as a dog. Every day its youthful captor had to go to a school at some distance, and by degrees the bear became his daily companion. At first the other scholars were shy of the creature's acquaintance ; but ere long it be came their regular play-fellow, and they delighted in sharing with it the little stare of provisions which they brought for their day's sustenance in small bags. After two years of civilisation, however, the bear wandered to the woods, and did not return. Search was made for him, but in vain. Four succeeding years passed away, and, in the interval, changes had occurred about the school alluded to. An old dame had succeeded to the ancient master, and a new generation of pupils had taken place of the former ones. One very cold winter day, while the schoolmistress was busy with her hum ble lessons, a boy chanced to leave the door half open on his re-entrance, and suddenly a large bear walked in. The con sternation of the old lady and her boys and girls was un speakable. Both schoolmistress and pupils would fain have been " abroad ;" but the bear was in the path, and all that could be done was to fly as far off as possible, and hide behind the tables and benches. But the bear troubled nobody. He walked quietly up to the fire-place, and warmed himself, exhibiting much satisfaction in his countenance during the process. He remained thus about a quarter of an hour, and then walked up to the wall where the provender bags and baskets of the pupils were suspended. Standing on his hind feet, he then took hold of these successively, put his paws into them, and made free with the bread, fruit, and other eatables there contained. He next tried the school mistress's desk, where some little provisions usually were ; but, finding it firmly shut, lie went up again to the fire, and after a few minutes stay before it, he walked himself finally out by the way he came. As soon as the schoolmistress and her pupils had courage to move, the alarm was given to the neighbours. Several young men immediately started after the bear, and as its track was perfectly visible in the snow, they soon came up with it, and killed it. Then it was, that, by certain marks upon its skin, some of its pursuers recog nised in the poor bear no enemy, but an old friend of their own recent school-days. Great regret was felt for the death of the creature. It was like killing a human friend rather than a wild animal.—French paper. RUSSIAN DRAMATIC EXHIBITION.—The great attraction at the Alexander Theatre, was a. Russian version of the life of Kean, the English actor and we accordingly selected an evening when this was to be performed. On our entrance, we found the scene laid in a house at " Yapping," as they termed it; in the middle of the state stood a Russian stove with a pipe to carry off the smoke, projecting from the side horizontally, having exactly the appearance of a pump with the handle lifted up. In front of this sat human beings, in tended for English sailors, arrayed in very tight knee-breeches, with long leather gaiters, and flaming red waistcoats, and with faces most profusely furnished with painted black eyes. Gos podeen (Mr. Kean,) now enters, somewhat similarly attired, and ealls for a bottle of champagne, which is forthwith brought, and a large tumbler to drink it out of. Kean pours out " his mighty :breaker" full, but one of the black-eyed worthies intercepts it on ils way, and swallows it. Not a word is spoken, but the paities at once strip, and we were all curiosity to see a Russian attempt at a set-too. This was, however, rather too much for them to venture upon : the whole company rushed to the very back of the stage, some ascending the pump," and stationing themselves so that it was utterly impossible to see what was going on between the combatants ; in less than a minute - the ring was broken up, and Gospodeen Kean came forward without even the flush of battle on his brow, while his antagonist was borne senseless from the field. In order to complete this precious carricature, which the audience appeared to relish prodigiously, the or chestra played about three bars of " God save the King," through every possible variation of time. We, of course, like loyal subjects, stood up during this martyrdom of our national anthem, to the no small surprise of our military neighbours. I saw many inquiring glances fixed on us, and much sage deliberation going on • but all seemed satisfied b the discovery that we were Englishmen, (Anglichannikee,) which I heard repeated around us on all sides. In another scene, " Milor Cox" makes his appearance with an immense silver star sewn on his coat, and expresses his unbounded es teem for the great actor, " Miladay Cox" being all the time secreted in a closet. Kean sits down to prepare for going on the stage, and the noise of the impatient audience is heard long and loud. At length he appears in the parting scene in Romeo and Juliet, and in one of the boxes (erected on the stage) sits Miliday Cox with Milor; and Kean, forgetting e very thing else, rushes forward, and falling on his knees, ad dresses her in a fine phrensy, until he falls senseless, and the whole corps dramatique rush to his assistance, and bear him off. His old and faithful servant came with stealthy tread to the footlights, and looking anxiously around, beckoned to some one in the pit, and called " Doctor, Doctor !" It was admirably done, In the concluding scene, after a few hard words with Milor Cox, who seemed not a little proud of his silver star, Kean and Miladay, followed by the old man, take their departure for New York. The actor whb played the part of Kean is considered the best tradegian in Russia. He certainly possesses a fine voice and commanding figure, and gives more expression than any other man I have heard to his full melodious language ; and absurd as the character is here made, it was impossible not to be struck with the force of passion he displayed in many of the scenes, and the man ner in which he identified himself with the wayward being whose name he bore. • The orchestra made a final attempt upon " Rule ;Britannia," but it was a wretched failure.— Hand Book of Northern Europe. VISIT TO HERCULANEUM AND POMPEII.—I joined the same party on an excursion to Pompeii, fourteen miles from Naples. The road lies along the shore of the Mediterranean. About half way we stopped to visit Herculaneum, into whose dark and chilly caves a guide conducted us, each person cars • rying a wax taper. A quarter of an hour suffices for visiting all that is to be seen here—even this was too long for me. Immediately on descending, I felt struck with a chill that penetrated to the very bone. The heat above was great, and I was but thinly clad. All the party buttoned up to their (thins ; for myself I would have. given the world to escape from such an atmosphere, but being unable to find my way out alone, I was obliged to follow the guide, whose descrip tions were- totally without interest. At length the cold be came insupportable, and the son of the guide having fortu nately joined us, , I instantly took advantage of him to make my escape. Whatever there may be for the imagination in Herculaneum,-there is certainly little for the eye to dwell on. A series of dark and dismal passages, with here and there a chamber and a.niche. The party was not five minutes after me in ascending to the genial warmth of the sun. Let the chest-invalid beware of descending into Herculaneum with out a warm cloak for protection. For myself, I escaped with a cough which lasted , only two hours.—We arrived at Pom peii at three o'clock.' Here all is above ground—a striking and a novel spectacle truly—a large town without a single inhabitant. We passed two hours in making a hasty survey of its deserted streets, and dismantled palaces. The amphi. theatre is to this day in perfect preservation ; its area oval, and about 100 feet in length, and around it are the seats for the spectators. How many a proud partrician dame has viewed in ecstacy:the combats of men and animals, from these very benches of stone ! We entered some of the dens where the wild beasts had been caged until let loose for the onslaught. In a field close to the amphitheatre, was some newly cut barley, from which I gleaned a few ears, in order to plant them in the "land o' cakes." From the hurried nature of our visit, I had little time for meditation or reflection, yet I could not but transport myself in imagination to the spot where I then stood, as it would have appeared on the night prior to the destruction of the city, The mind of man can imagine no contrast more striking, yet the author of the ca lamity remains unchanged ; I looked up 'from the desolation around to the fire-heaving monster above, but Vesuvius shows no signs of remorse. On the contrary, he beholds with sullen indifference his direful work of destruction. The streets, with one exception, are very narrow, and all paved with flat stones. In some there is a distinct double groove, caused evidently by the friction of wheels. I was struck with the smallness of the apartments, which are in general mere sleep ing cabins. The Romans must have taken their meals in the courts of their houses. There are a great number of mosaic pavements and drawings, in high preservation ; but almost all the marble columns are only a third of their original height. On asking the guide what had become of the upper portions, he replied that no more could be found. Some marble baths, and also one or two fountains, were in admira ble preservation. The circumference of Pompeii is four miles. We left by a different gate from that by which we entered. Nearly the last house we visited was one described as having belonged to Cicero ; I entered its court with peculiar rever ence, plucked a flower from the area, which I intend to pre serve. The renowned orator must have lived in a bad neigh bourhood, his house being close to one which, from the na ture of the sign engraven above the door, had evidently not been the residence of the goddess of chastity. Next to the house of Cicero, is that of Diomede, the largest in the town. Thence we proceeded to the gate where our carriage was in waiting; and drove away much' gratified by our short visit to Pompeii.—Notes of a Wanderer, by Dr. Cumming. ANON. THE DIVERS AT BLACKPOOL. An operation of great interest to the visitors at Blackpool and Lytham is now.going on, and will probably be continued for some weeks, in the recovery, by a party of divers, of part of the cargo of the Crusader, a vessel which was wrecked on the Hore Bank, near the mouth of the Ribble, in the tre mendous storm of the 7th January last. This vessel left Liverpool on the previous day laden with a general cargo for the East Indies. The crew were all saved, and our readers will remember the account we gave at that time of the plun der by the Fylde wreckers of part of the cargo which was washed on shore. A portion of the vessel still remains to gether, deeply imbedded in the sand, and at low water part of it is visible ; it was ascertained by the examination of a diver that a good deal of the cargo was still there, and the party now at work are engaged by the under-writers to re coder it. In the course of the last fortnight they have suc ceeded in getting up a considerable number of bales both of cotton and silk goods, &c. Two small vessels are moored immediately above the wreck, containing the necessary appa ratus for the divers, and for hauling up the goods ; there are three divers, and not less than thirty men in attendance upon them for the various purposes of working the air-pump, attending to the signals, and hauling and stowing the goods, &c. The head of each diver is covered with a helmet of thin sheet copper, large enough to admit of an easy motion of the head, and capabl of containing between six and eight gallons of air. The helmet comes pretty far down on the breast and back, and has in front two eye-holes, covered with glass, - protected by brass wires. The copper helmet is attached to a waterproof canvass jacket, by means of rivets, so tightly fixed that no water can be introduced to the body of the diver. The junction of the helmet and jacket is stuffed, so that it may clasp the shoulders of the diver firmly. A leather belt passes round the diver, to which are attached two weights—one before and the other behind—each weighing about 401bs. These weights are attached in order that the diver may descend with facility ; but in the case of any acci dent occurring when he is at the bottom, the belt is fastened with a buckle in front, which he can instantly unloose, and rise to the surface after the dropping of the weights. The diver is supplied with fresh air by means of a flexible water proof pipe, which enters the back of the helmet, and com municates with an air pump, wrought above in the vessel from which the diver descends. The tube passes under the left arm of the diver, and, turning upwards, enters the back of the helmet, being so contrived that the fresh air is made to impinge against the glasses, which, in a great measure, prevents their being dimmed by the moisture of the breath. From the back part of the helmet, there is likewise led au eduction pipe, to allow the escape of the breathed air. In order that the diver may give notice to the 'attendants at the top, when he requires a hook, tackle, bucket, or any differ ence in the supply of fresh air, he is furnished with a signal line, which passes under his right arm. That he may be as comfortable as possible under water, he puts' on two suits of flannel, above which he has a complete dress, in one piece of Mackintosh's waterproof cloth. The waterproof dress covers the body entirely—the only apertures being at the neck and wrists. The opening at the neck comes well up, and is tied round tightly with a bandage ; which contrivance, together vvith the pressure of the air in the helmet, prevents the water from entering the helmet, and the wrists are, likewise, tightly bound with bandages. The diver is thus enabled to remain for five or six hours at once under water, all the while per fectly dry, his motion being rendered quite steady by heavy weights attached to his shoes. With this apparatus the divers may now be seen daily, at the wreck of the Crusader : they plunge into the water, and, shortly afterwards, bundles of twist, bales of goods, &c., externally blackened and torn, are drawn up from the sea. The situation of the diver is known by the bubbles on the surface of the water. The work is evi dently very severe, and the divers come up much exhausted. —Manchester Guardian. APHORISMS. BY LADY LYTTON BULWER. FEMALE MARTYRS.—Oh ! how many uncanonised mar tyrs there are in every day domestic life, hourly warring both with the flesh and the spirit, and literally taking up the cross daily : and this must ever be the case so long as men continue to enforce the laws of God grammatically, thereby assuming a wide difference between the masculine and the feminine, which is nowhere to be found in the text. C'est une triste metier que cnlie de femme, says the French proverb, and it says truly. In society the worst conducted women generally fare the best, because their provocations to misconduct are often most humanely and charitably allowed, while the really virtuous almost invariably find coolness andinsensibility, or want of temptation, the only merits conceded to them. COMPARISON.—There was in her manner a kindness and cordiality which, when united with perfect good breeding, enhances the effect of the latter, just as much as a warm background throws out and gives a tone to the most finished picture. AN ADMONITION.—Let a man beware how he forms a friendship for a married woman, whose first feelings towards her is admiration, and his next compassion ! EFFECTS OF ILL TREATMENT IN A WOMAN.—A woman may be so brutalised, and subdued by ill treatment from the one who should be the last in the world to be guilty of such inhumanity towards her, as to become grateful for the civility of a sweep who movrs out of her way In the street. WHY IS RELIGION OUR RESOURCE IN AFFLICTION ? Alas ! alas ! Why is it that so many of us must be rejected of earth, ere we can think of heaven ? Why is it that reli gion is so often resorted to as an elixir for worldly disappoint ments ? Why is it that we follow the example of the hea then Agrippa, who, when Augustus refused to accept of the dedication of the Pantheon, then, and not till then, conse crated it to all the Gods of Olympus ? What a pantheon is the human heart ! rejected by one, only to be filled with in numerable, still vainer idols ; and at last, perhaps, in the best stage, mistaking the gorgeous and poetical forms ; the Ca tholicism of the passions, for the pure and undefiled Chris tianity of the soul. A PROFESSION.—He is the mostpromisiny young man of the—of his age, for his promise and professions are bound less; but if you only wanted him to walk across the street, he would fail you. These sort of professors are to the moral world what Bahr-bella-ma, the waterless sea of the Lybian Dessert, is to the geological one, which has all the appearance of a large ocean, without containing a single drop of water ; they want nothing but reality to satisfy one. LIBERAL POLICY.—Your true liberal deals with the peo ple, as Charles XI I. did with the Rusgians : under the guise of protection and redress he uses all his dexterity and adroit ness, to turn their own arms against them, and instruct him how to become their conqueror ; when too late they find their mistake, in exchanging the harmless inertness of a King Log for the active destructiveness of a King Stork. TALENTS OF WOMEN.—Clever men have a thousand ways of making their talents available—science, politics, law, war, literature, all are open to them ; but a woman has but one sphere wherein to employ her talents—society. It may be urged that literature is generally open to them, as to the other sex. Not so ; for, generally speaking, women have either fathers, brothers, or husbands, who would shrink from having an authoress for a daughter, sister, or wife ; and the reason is obvious—it arises from a fear that they might either dis grace or distinguish themselves—two results equally dis tasteful to the pride of man. THE FIRST LOVE LETTER.—What a mysterious feeling is that which we experience upon beholding, for the first time, the writing of the person we love, addressed to our selves ! However commonplace the subject and words may be, yet, to us, they have a meaning and a mystery which the same words never had before, and never will again. They are looked upon again and again, in every possible direction; we long to discover if our own names are written more clearly and tremblingly than the rest, and in either case our hearts are satisfied with the omen. Even the paper is scrutinised to the very edges, as though 'we had never seen a sheet of paper before, or as if that- sheet of paper must of necessity be different or superior to any thathad been previously made; like characters traced in, milk, which are weak and invisible till exposed to the heat of the fire, each time we gaze on this mysterious paper the warmth of our imagination brings out a force and meaninc , that was imperceptible before. A CAUTlON.—Afounded pride is a necromancer that con verts the strongest love, and the st ronges t an d mos t impla cable hate ; let no man, therefore, be surprised, when he has shapened a woman's heart on the whetstone of insult, if it become a two-edged sword, and is pointed against himself. MINOR ANNOYANCES.—It is the petty envyings, the low hypocrisies, and the smallest deceptions—in short, the in sects of life that sting and irritate one out of a healthy equa nimity of mind. For every calamity brings with it a cer tain degree of dignity sufficient for its support ; to say no thing of their being of rare occurrence; and if one might be allowed to choose one's own misfortune, I think there are few, if any, who would not prefer being torn to pieces by a lion, to being stung to death by gnats. A FACT.—The economy of fathers and sons has always to be atoned for by the economy, privation, and self-denials of mothers and daughters. DEPRIVATION BY MEN OF THE INTELLECT OF WOMEN. —Englishmen politely banish rational conversation in female society, as beingbeyond the comprehension of their protem pore companions ; and at twenty years the generality of grown persons invariably spoke to children as if they thought them fools, and thus often made them that which they had supposed them, the same effect from the same cause (despite the march of intellect) may sometimes be produced upon adults now. If a woman ventures to evince any esprit de corps, and in defence of the depreciated intellects of her sex, triumphantly brings forward the names of an Edgeworth, a De Steel, a More, a Carter, a Martineau, a Gore. &c., some supercilious pedant of the other sex constantly tries to silence her by a contemptuous smile, and an " all very clever, cer tainly, but women want that profundity which must ever pre vent their advancing to any eminence in science." ON DITS. THE ROYAL MIMIC.—The papers state that " the Queen is a decided mimic." If so, we hope her Majesty will ex= ercise her powers-in the art-by " taking off" her Miriisters. A correspondent informs us that the big o'. Master Martrish, and " immaculate" little :John O'Connell, and divers joints of the Tail, including some ministerial hacks, are in a day or two to appear in the Court of Exchequer be fore " James, Lord Abi nger ," t o answe r th e wrongs of an ill-requited attache, when it iS guessed some curious, if not important disclo s u res w ill b e ma d e t o aid th e inimitable un tiring pencil of H. 8., HYMEN.-.lt is reported an ill-matched couple, recently united, have quarrelled, and that the young Adonis is to have six hundred per annum to do what he likes with.—Aye. The young lady at a certain great house, did, we know, stamp upon the Morning Post, and direct her servants never to admit the paper again., Lady Clarke, the wife of Sir JameS Clarke, the Queen's private physician, (as we hear), does not hesitate to say that her husband cannot be disinissed the' Palace.—Queiy. why ? The dismissal of Sir John Conroy; which we announced in our last, from his office of Comptroller of the DU - chess of Kent's household will, it is said, lead, to explanations any thing hilt pleasant in high quarters.—Argus. PROLIFIC PlG.—There is a sow pig in the possession of Mr. Thomas Seel, of Wellington-road, Ashton-under-Lyne, grocer, and bred by Mr. Wm. Labrey, tea-dealer, Market place, Manchester, that has given birth, at five times, to the astonishing number of 84 pigs.. She had the first time, 15 ; second, 14 ; third, 16 ; fourth, 17 ; fifth, 22, Sixteen of the last have been reared, are turned six weeks old, and are very fine healthy pigs. —Manchester Courier. It was lately decided by Mr. Justice Coleridge that an innkeeper cannot legally maintain any charge in his bill for waiters, chambermaids, boots, &c. unless it can be shown that the defendant had agreed to pay such attendants. In an action, therefore, lately brought in the bail court, an item of £9 for services of this nature, was ordered to be struck out. MURDER IN SUNDERLAND.—On Thursday last the body of a man, which turned out to be that of Joahnn Friederick Cerkholtz, master of the brigantine Phcenix, of Settin, was found in the river Tyne. It was found tied to a large square piece of limestone, weighing upwards of a hundred weight. The rope was tied tightly round the waist, and both ends had been safely knotted in a very complicated manner. On the body there was no other apparel than a pair of stockings, a flannel shirt, and a cotton shirt, torn open. The right side of the frontal bone of the skull and the orbit of the right eye had been driven in upon the brain by a violent blow, and over the right eye was a deep horizontal cut above an inch and a half in length, which appeared to have been inflicted with some sharp instrument : there was a smaller cut on the forehead, and some trifling bruises about the face and the left hand. From the confession of a boy, named Muller, one of the crew, Jacob Friederick Ehlers, the mate;-is the mur derer. Blood was found on his jacket, and, he bad threat ened to murder the boy, if he revealed the deed. The mur der was done in the night, and the body was thrown out of the cabin window. RIVAL POLITICIANS IN NEW Yonx.--Two violent politi cians, the one a sand-paper manufacturer, named Edward Walk, and the other a carpenter, named James Van Schaick, met on Monday evening, at some porter house, up town, and got into a warm debate on politics in general and the cause of the milk in cocoa nuts in particular. The latter being an abstract question of some difficulty in the solution, the dis cussing parties abandoned it, and concentrated the whole of their force upon the former one. During the debate, the sand paper man accused the carpenter of shaving and gouging the point. - This excited the wrath of Mr. Van to such a de gree, that he seized Mr. Walk by the collar, and gave him an admonitory and introductory shake. Walk thereupon shook his fist in the other's face, and told him he had licked a good many better men than he in his time, and could do so again. The belligerents then clinched and rolled on the floor, when Mr. W. took occasion to bite off one of the ears and a bit of one of the whiskers of his antagonist. This sanguinary and arbitrary proceeding put a stop to the conflict, and Mr. Van Schaick gathered up the piece of his ear, wrapped it up in a piece of a newspaper, and carried it to the upper police office, and made a complaint, upon which Mr. Walk was arrested and held to bail in the sum of 500 dollars.—New York Herald. A CHEESE FOR TILE QUEEN. - Our much-respected neighbours, the yeomanry of West Pennard, have in contem plation the presenting of a cheese to her Most Gracious Ma jesty Queen Victoria, accompanied by expressions of their loyalty and patriotic feeling, and their respect, esteem, and approbation for her unremitting zeal to promote the public welfare. The cheese is intended to be no less than one of ten hundred pounds weight ! and when their spirited design is fully and satisfactorily put into practice, we shall be led to ask, where (we should like to know) is such a cheese to be found again ? West Pennard contains about 3000 acres of land, which are chiefly devoted to dairy purposes ; and it has been unanimously agreed by the yeomanry that the cheese be made from the milk of 700 cows, the number kept in the parish. It will be a novel and a noble present, and, we doubt not, will be most graciously received by her Majesty. We are at a loss to conceive how it is possible to make a cheese of such magnitude, but, from what we know of the superior skill of the dairy-women of this part of the county, we may safely say that they will accomplish their design well. Should time and opportunity permit, we hope to have the pleasure of being indulged with a sight of this royal cheese. We can not but feel the most sincere respect for our Pennard friends when we see them oflering so manifest a token of their loyalty and attachment to our youthful Queen. In sentiment we heartily join with them, and hope that we shall soon have to notice its having been presented, and graciously received by her Majesty.—Sheerness Journal. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 17. The number of Beasts to-day has been exceedingly limited, and the quality generally middling; the demand for Beef has been very brisk at advanced prices from our last quotations. The supply of Sheep and Lambs has also been somewhat smaller than that of the preceding week ; good Wether Mutton has been very much in de mand, and sold quickly at an advance in price ; good Lamb has also been in great demand, and sold np readily at large prices; those of inferior quality were neglected. The best Beef was eagerly bought of 7d, second quality 7d, and inferior bid Ifr ib. Good Wether Mutton realised 7d, varying from that down to 6d r lb. agreeable to size and quality. The best Lamb was readily sold at 8d with some of an ordinary description at a shade less. Number of Cattle at market : Beasts 744 ; Sheep and Lambs 7896. Enteiligrnre.

ProvisiOns are a little steadier. Bacon in good demand, and 525 for good stuff is obtain rble. Our Butter market is entirely ruled by the weather, which at present is very favourable for production. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 18. Since our report of this day week, the arrivals of Grain have been generally rather small, but of American and European Flour, we have a fair supply : we have, however, a large accession by the further release of Foreign for the week ending Thursday last, of 33,013 qrs Wheat, 2708 qrs Barley, 6 qrs Beans, 272 qrs Pease, 512 qrs. Indian Corn and 8373 barrels Flour.—The total quantity of Wheat and Flour taken out of Bond between the 22d of March and the 13th June, is 160,429 qrs of the former and 40,602 barrels of the latter, the greater portiop, of which has been released within the last fortnight. Occasional rains within the past week, and repeated last evening, have produced the best effects upon all the growing crops in thiS part of the country, and served to check the general proceedings of , the trade at our Corn Exchange to-day—The millers also having bought freely of late, were mostly inactive this morning, and the operations in Wheat, being rather limited in amount, prices recurred to those of Tuesdaylast.—At the close of the week and to-day, con siderable business was done in American Flour, at an advance of 6d to Is per barrel, but in other Foreign and Irish there was no variation. With a dull sale for Oats, our extreme prices of last week were hardly obtainable ; and the demand for Oatmeal was confined to our own and the neighbouring dealers, at the rates of tills day se'nnight. In other articles we have no change to note. The Foreign exports of the week consist of 160 qrs Wheat for Pernambuco, 12 qrs Oats for New York, with 170 qrs Oats and 680 barrels Flour for the West Indies WHEAT, per 701bs English Scotch.
