SIGNING THE TREATY OF LAHORE. THE UNITED STATES AND MEXICO. The following is an outline of the speech for peace (referred to in our last correspondence from the United States) delivered in Congress by M. Sevier:— " The object of this Bill, as appears upon its face, was to make peace with Mexico ; and, in urging its passage, he should abstain from the expression of any opinions regarding the origin of the Mexican war, for his object was to excite no party feelings upon any side on a ques tion of this sort. He took it for granted they were all In favour of peace, if it could be obtained upon proper terms ; and it was proper that he should say that he did not see how peace could be brought about unless one or other of the belligerent parties made an advance towards obtaining it. It was true, they had already made an advance towards that object, by sending a message to treat with the Government of Mexico, and had kept our army out of the country which was claimed by us for a considerable time before the commencement of the war, for the express purpose of securing peace, by showing a forbearance and a disposition to avoid a hostile collision. In making peace, of course, the United States would expect to receive indemnity to some extent, at least, for the expenses of the war, and they would expect also the payment of the claims held by our citizens against the Republic of Mexico, and this indemnity was expected in the shape of territory. Ile was not authorised to state precisely what territory this Government would require, but he supposed that no senator would think that they ought to get less than Now Mexico and Upper California. 'He did not sup• pose that a treaty of peace with less than this would ever pass that body. However, they would be better prepared when a treaty was proposed to determine as to the quantity. Having stated, then, in a few words the object of the bill and its form, the next question that arose was, whether it was proper that they should effect their purpose upon these terms. In regard to that he would say, that, in coming to the conclusion they had, the Committee were governed to a great extent by the recommendation of the Pre sident, who communicated to them official correspond ence which he had in his possession, and after exa. mining that correspondence, they had come to the conclusion that peace could be made upon those terms with Mexico. Ile believed that Mexico, a large part of it at all events, a large majority of the people would be glad to make peace. This opinion he derived from an examination of the correspondence which the President had communicated to them. It could not be expected, however, that the President, or anybody else, would be required to give the names o f th ose who imparted this information, for it would be a breach of confidence to do so. It would be sufficient, therefore, for him to say, that in looking over this correspondence, coming from the quarter it did, he thought the probability was, that if this Bill should pass, a peace, upon such terms as he named, would be effected. They were engaged in an expensive war—a war attended with a great sacrifice of life, and ono which exhausted the means of the Govern ment ; and, if peace could be made upon these terms, he thought there ought to be no hesitation about making it. But it might be asked, could a lasting peace be made under the circumstances in which Mexico was placed, divided as that country is into various ramifica tions of party, factions existing everywhere, an unstable government, and with no one party sufficiently strong to make up peace ? The intelligence possessed by the President gave them reason to believe that, upon a cer tain advance to be made to them to pay the expenses of their army and other expenses, they would be wil ling to cede that portion of their country which he had named. His object was not to consume the time of the Senate ; and to avoid everything that might produce discussion or party excitemeut, he bad endeavoured, in as few words as possible, to deans the object of this measure, and to hold out to the Senate the prospect of procuring a peace. Our arms had triumphed everywhere. We had got posses 82_0_1[:.et a f large part of their t err it ory ; we had got pos a" lon of of th e i r seaports, orts and held others block aded. W p e were powerful, and in a conditio n t o f orce contribution s , and every one in Mexico, or at least the greater number, desirous of concluding a peace. He hoped, therefowree,rtbehaedSenate would concur with him in the view which he expressed, lla and adopt the mea sure which the President d to discuss thed recommended. pqrueesatreo m ore f u If it should be propose e Nv ntl u e l m a ebn desired regard to this war, u he g go t the discussion as fully be would respectfully ask the Senate to let thpisresßeinllt for he thought it was becoming on thepowerful, country, and d our arms pass, . the most part of this country, as being mos thus far, to make the firstas advances to bad triumphed putting wards concluding a lie thought andthat an end to this destructive war. a proper re gard for the opinions of the world should required that they ould make peace, and that their demands upon Mexico should be moderate in any treaty that might be made with that republic." INSTINCT or BIRDS.—When the lapwing wants to procure food, it seeks for a worm's nest and stamps the ground by the side of it with its feet, after the manner of boys in order to p rocure worms f o r fishing.

SINGAPORE. 1 (From the Singapore Free Press, Feb. 6.) Singapore, in the month which has elapsed since the last issue of our Overland, has not presented any striking incidents for comment, affairs having run on in an even course. The junks from China have begun to arrive, but at this early period it cannot yet be known whether there will be any great decrease in their num bers or not; although in those which have already arrived, a very considerable alteration in the value of their airgoes, oompared with former years, has been manifested; the articles brought by them being of con siderably less value than in former seasons. OCCUPATION OF LAB JAN. On Tuesday last her Majesty's ship Iris, Captain Mundy, arrived from Borneo, bringing accounts of the Island of Labuan having been at last formally taken possession of by the British Crown. The Iris arrived at Labuan on the 18th ult., and operations were imme diately commenced by clearing a space about three times the size of the Singapore Esplanade. On the 24th the British flag was hoisted on the island in presence of many Malays from Bruni, &c., who appeared to be highly delighted with the proceedings. The proper salutes were fired from cannon which had been brought ashore, and from the Iris and Wolf. The natives, we understand are exceedingly anxious to be al lowed to settle upon Labuan, so that as soon as permis sion is given to that effect, we may expect to see a large population speedily gathered together. We regret to hear that Captain Gordon, of her Ma jesty's ship Wolf, died while at Labuan of jungle fever, and that a number of persons 'belonging to that vessel and the Iris are also suffering from sickness. Unneces sary exposure and over-exertion are thought to be the cause of this sickness, but which has no doubt been partly, if not wholly, caused by the unwholesome miasma produced by the clearing of the jungle. There have been many instances in Penang and elsewhere of mor tality arising from persons inhabiting houses built on ground where the forest has been newly cleared, which in all probability, would not have occurred had a suffi cient time been allowed to elapse after the clearingof the ground, before building, so as to permit the miasma arising from the newly-uncovered ground, as well as from the decayed jungle, to be effectually dissipated.—Singa• pore Free Press, Jan. 21. The following letter from a young Scotch officer who yeas present at the signing of the late treaty which places the State and Government of Lahore fourteen years longer under the protection of the British, gives an in teresting description of that showy ceremony. The letter is dated from the camp at Jundiallah, en route to Umrit seer, and is addressed to a near relation in Edinburgh:— " My dear -- I think the last letter I wrote you was dated from Jullunder ; and here we are again on the march. We marched from Jullunder on the 23d December, and joined the Governor-General's camp at Berwal Ghaut, on the bank of the river Bess, to be present at the Grand Durbar, held there for th e pur pose of signing the new treaty between L a ho re an d th e British Government. I shall do my best to give you a description of the imposing scene. We marched down to the Governor-General's camp at eight o'clock of the morning of the 27th in full dress, and were drawn up to form a street, leading to the Grand Durbar tent in the following order—first, the 2d European Regiment, then the 73d Native Infantry, after which came the Governor- General's Body Guards, and a Regiment of Irregular Horse ; and last of all, the Horse Artillery. After waiting in the burning sun for the space of about three hours, a gun announced the arrival of the Maharajah, who was met by the Governor-General ; and having been placed on his right hand in the same howdah, the procession moved up the street formed by the troops, to the Great Durbar tent. Fancy elephants, to the number of fifty, moving six abreast, with their howdahs and trappings covered with gold and silver. One felt the very ground shake as they passed. On the Governor- General entering the tent, we were allowed to fall out for the purpose of seeing the fun. The Go vernor-General then made a speech to the Sir dars and Chiefs, which was translated to them by Mr. Currie, Secretary to Government, during which the &,all Maharajah yawned immoderately. The poor little fellow was then made to affix his mark of signa ture to the treaty,—the former I conjecture, as he cannot, I should thi n k, b e a bl e to wr i te, being only eight years old, and very *mall for his age. He is a remark ably fair and pretty little fellow, and was dressed in a sort of robe of yellow silk, with a small white turban on his head, covered with jewels, among which, I believe was the famous Lahore diamond. The presents from the British Government were then brought in ; the thing he seemed most taken with was a neat little rifle, inlaid with gold. His Lord s hip put i t together for him, and the little fellow pointed in all directions —snapping the locks with an avidity quite appalling to behold. The Sirdats then were brought up, and having been presented to Lord Hardinge, and received their presents, the meeting was broken up. They are a very rascally leoking set of fellows, but the most amusing part of them were the military gentlemen ; for instance, there was General Goolab Singh, dressed in a sort of red hussar jacket, covered with gold lace and spangles, a white waistcoat, of the very newest pattern, a pair of bright yellow inexpressibles, made tight to the leg, with a broad gold stripe down the sides, and a pair of English pumps and white cotton stockings, with a long yellow night-cap , on, the better to set. off his charcoal visage ! There were many others of the same profession dressed in quite as outre a manner. We were all very glad when it was over, and as we had had no breakfast, and it was then one o'clock P.M. We are now on our way to a place called " Umritsur," where the Governor-General bolds another Durbar, but for what purpose I know not." , Average Amcunt. Oxfordshire Witney Bank.

Those of our readers who are interested in the fine arts—and who is not?—will be not unthankful to ac quire some information on the best methods of treating, preserving from injury, or restoring paintings, whether in oil or water. Let us commence with the latter, not that we are senseless enough to consider them of the most value, but because of their greater prevalence and their more perishable nature. We need only appeal to the chemical knowledge of our readers to substantiate the assertion that few, very few, of the vegetable tints used in water colour painting are capable of withstanding the protracted agencies of light and atmospheric in fluences; hence pictures which, when first executed, were all that the artist could desire, become worn, faded, and dingy—unsatisfactory alike to artist and purchaser. Can this be prevented? Yes, to a great extent, by proper management; and the precautions we are about to mention partly relate to the original period of the picture's formation, and partly to subsequent means used for its preservation. Water colours, it is well known, require the intervening agency of some tenacious material to enable them to adhere to paper. The materials usually employed are gum and isinglass, and by some artists to such a pernicious extent, that no sooner are the pic tures dry than they begin to crack in a most unsightly and destructive manner. This may be prevented to a great extent by mixing with the gnm or isinglass em ployed a little sugar, a material which, in virtue of the hygrometric properties which it possesses, attracts suffi cient moisture from the atmosphere to keep the gum or isinglass always in st somewhat damp condition. Our other remarks apply to the after treatment of the picture, and have for their obj( ct the enclosing it in a perfectly air-tight case; to accomplish which we proceed thus:— We first free the picture from all adherent dust, dry it thoroughly, and put it aside. We now take a frame, and adapt to it, by means of white lead, a sheet of plate glass common glass, on account of the irregularity of its surface, is not effica cious, and, indeed, if a picture be worth framing at all, it is surely worth a square of plate glass. This sheet of glass being properly secured and wiped dry, the picture is inserted, and a backboard attached by means of a cement of copal varnish and white lead. The picture is now enveloped in a case which is almost air-tight, and it may be made perfectly so by painting its surface with several successive coats of copal varnish. A picture thus treated will remain after a lapse of years as fresh and perfect as when it was first inserted. As it regards oil paintings, we will confine our remarks to their restoration and preservation. With respect to the operation of oil Painting, we shall only make one remark, which is, that whatever vehicle besides oil be used for mixing the colours, it should possess the pro perty of ultimately drying. Painters commit many errors by not comprehending this remark or attending to it ; hence we hear of eyes dropping out of pictures, &c.— calamities which might easily have been avoided by a little common precaution. But suppose an oil painting to have been executed with ever so much care ; time and chemical agencies will exert their injurious influence, the picture will become dull, and lose, therefore, much of its former attraction. A great deal of this dulness is attributable to the deposition of impurities on the varnished surfaces of pictures, and which may generally be removed by smearing its surface with wheat-flour paste, allowing the latter to dry, and then rubbing it by means of a flannel away. Frequently the varnish itself must be removed, and a new layer put on, which may be accomplished by the cautious use of alcohol with friction. This opera tion, although simple to describe, is nevertheless limited in its application by the circumstance that the varnish with which the face of a picture is covered, obstinately attaches itself to the coloured surface below, which latter is sometimes injured by removing the former. This limitation to the use of flour paste might al together be obviated by covering the picture when finished with a thin coat of isinglass and sugar, which acts by completely screening the picture from contact with the varnish, and permits the latter's removal by alcohol and friction without at all interfering with the former. Unfortunately the most usual kind of white paint is carbonate of lead (white lead), a material which blackens when exposed to sulphuretted hydrogen gas, from which the atmosphere of crowded towns, and sitting-rooms in general, is never free. Much has been said of the action which the peroxide of hydrogen possesses in restoring this black sulphate of lead to a white condition by in stantaneously imparting oxygen, and changing it to a sulphate ; however, the peroxide of hydrogen is far too expensive a material ever to come into general use for that, or, perhaps, any other, purpose. A. great deal of injury is inflicted on oil paintings by hanging them at an angle far advantageous optical effects, and thus allowing them to bag out totally un supported, owing to which they crack, and become dis figured. This may be prevented by cementing their backs to a board. Our readers who delight in the fine arts may rely upon finding these few remarks of service, and ere long we mean to revert to this subject again. SALT. Common salt is unquestionably one of the greatest agents in the preservation of the world that we possess. Of all minerals it is the most serviceable to mankind, for all the others would be useless without it, and ac cordingly we find it has always been held in high esti• mation. By the early nations salt was considered of such indispensable importance that the poorest person kept it in a precious vessel ; and ment i on o f the value of this commodity continually occurs amongst t h e wr i ters of antiquit antiquity. The ofhestiPendium milit are cons i sted partly of an allowance salt to each Roman soldier, and was thus called salarium, whence we derive our English word " salary," as a recompense for services performed. The temple of Jupiter Ammon was built in the deserts of Libya, in the immediate neighbourhood of vast pillars of salt, which were considered as natural indications of the sanctity of the spot. To eat salt with a stranger is to this day an assurance amongst the Arabs that the rights of hospitality will not be violated; and to sit below the salt at a dining table is now, as formerly, considered amongst the nations of the South of Europe as a place of inferior dignity. The spilling of salt, without propi tiating the angry deities by throwing a grain over the left shoulder has been for ages held a bad omen; and even in our own land, amongst the lovers of traditional lore, this superstition maintains its place with the unlucky crossing of knives and passage beneath ladders. With the effects of salt upon the human body we are all fami liar • we are told how unwholesome, and we k now h ow unplatable fresh meat and vegetables are without it. The reason why this general saline appetite exists appears to be simply this : the muriate of soda that is put upon our table so regularly in the shape of common salt, and which is justly held to be a necessary article in our daily nourishment, is the principal saline ingredient in the blood ; and it is no less curious than true that every article we use contains either salt or the basis of saline matter, a hich after a time is converted into neutral salts and enters the circulating current. The salt used for domestic purposes is extracted from the waters of the ocean [and the earth—En. j, and is also found on land in mines. The marine salt preserves every kind of animal food from putrefaction much better than any other salt, as it does so without destroying their taste and qualities ; but it must not be forgotten that when applied in too small a quantity decomposition is pro moted instead of prevented. Mines of salt have long been discovered and worked in England, Spain, Poland, Germany, Hungary, and other countries of Europe. In several parts of the world there are huge mountains which consist entirely of fossil salt : of this kind there are two in Russia, near Astracan; several in Africa, near Tunis and Algiers ; some in Asia ; and the island of Ormus, in the Persian Gulf, is merely one mighty mass of fossil salt. The New World is likewise stored with treasures of this useful mineral ; but the sea affords such abundance that without other sources mankind might thence be more than sufficiently provided. Rock salt is that which is dug out of the earth and has not under gone any artificial preparation. Bay salt is that which is extracted by evaporation from the sea. The English fossil salt is unfit for the uses of the kitchen until it has been freed from impurity, and reduced into white salt. About eighteen miles to the east of Aleppo, is Syria, there is a valley of salt, which is a lake in winter, but in summer the moisture is evaporated by the heat of the sun, and the salt is left in beds of about an inch in thick ness, being afterwards purified for service. Medical men are universally agreed that it is the most useful of all condiments; for without it the culinary preparations of civilised life would be little less than poisonous. It is even the valuable adjunct to the food of the lower animals horse, cows, sheep, and poultry especially. The mineral waters derive their greatest value from the admixture of this commodity. The springs of Aix la Chapelle contain what chemists call a notable quantity of common salt ; and, in our own country, the fashionable spa of Lea mington is, in fact, little more than a strong brine, in which the said muriate of soda is the predominating in gredient. It is owing to this astringent property that sea bathing is so exhilarating and beneficial in its effects, and that long voyages have been frequently known to produce the most wonderful recoveries.— People's Press. CWMBRAIN BAR AND BOILER PLATE WORKS.— We are happy to hear that the result of the experiment made at these works, for the manufacture of boiler plates, is no l onger pro b lemat i ca l . M r .

AN EXPERIENCED BRIDE.—An old woman, named Wigan, 87 years of age, residing at Eve-hill, Dudley, was on Monday last taken to the hymeneal altar, for the fourth time, each of her husbands being pensioners. The last husband died about six weeks ago, and the present one was at the funeral, immediately after which She match was made.—Tex Towns' Messenger. ETHER OPERATIONS. (Abridged from a Paper by Mr. Startin, in the Medical Times.) The inhalation of ether for producing "insensibility to the pain of surgical operations" is a new discovery that will confer immortality on the name of Dr. Mort oh of Bostor , United States, although it may be hereafter determined that some one else ,bare with him the merit of having suggested a letaedy he has so success fully applied and carried out. Yet ethc;ial vapour as a remedial agent has been known and employed nearly as long since as the date of the introduction of ether as an article of materia medics. Ether in vapour has even been publicly breathed after the manner of nitrous oxide gas, to produce analogous effects to this agent, in cer tain chemical lecture rooms in London, for some years past.* Yet it must be recollected that the pure vapour of ether is not respirable for many seconds, so that in all these experiments there must have been a greater or less admixture of air; a circumstance never to be for gotten in the construction of any instrument employed for inhalation of this vapour, as to such omission alone the deaths, accidents alluded to, are to be ascribed in every instance which has hitherto come under my notice. To facilitate the consideration of the subject, I will avranee it under the three following divisions:- 1. As to the qualities of the ether itself. 2. As to its effects on the healthy or sick, in its simple or combined forms. 3. As to the qualities necessary to constitute a com plete, serviceable, and innocuous apparatus. With regard to the first division, the sulphuric ether used for inhalations should be perfectly pure, free from acid or alcohol, of the specific gravity of •730; and a quantity, not exceedinp, half a drachm, of ether of this purity, should be converted into vapour and mingled with three pints of air, for each single separate inspira tion. And the supply of ether and air should be so regulated as to furnish this proportion at each succes sive inhalation, taking care that the whole quantity consumed do not exceed two ounces at the most. Admixtures of sulphovinic acid (ethereal oil as it was formerly called) with the ether, or of free sulphuric or sulphurous acid, or of alcohol, have the effect of modi fying the action of the remedy, either by causing irrita tion in the air pas:tyres, and thereby producing cough ; or, in the case of alcohol, of substituting intoxicating for narcotic qualities. I have found no ether of equal efficacy with the sul phuric, nor can any be breathed which produces so slight a degree of pulmonary irritation. The effects of the vapour of ether on the system, forming the second division of the subject, I need scarcely add, will mate rially differ according to the application and the purity of the spirit. With regard to the effects of inhaling ethereal vapour ' properly mixed with air: they vary according to the state of the patient, the disposition his mind may be in prier to his commencing the operation, and the mode in which the vapour has been administered ; but in a large majority of cases, with the ordinary class of instruments and in my early experiments, I found a few inspirations have been followed by much irritation of the bronchial membrane, inducing feelings of constriction in the throat, with sensations of suffocation almost as great as though carbonic acid were inhaled. It is thus, after numerous trials, I discovered that one part ethereal vapour and two parts air constitute the highest admixture which can generally be inhaled, without defeating much of the effect of the remedy by irritating the lungs. If a pro portion of steam be added to the extent of 1-10 to 1-6, the remedy is rendered so much milder that it scarcely disturbs the natural freedom of inspiration, even in irritable cases ; a further addition of steam would ap pear to render the action of the ether comparatively impotent as an agent for producing insensibility to pain, but very efficacious against many affections of the respi ratory organs, as catarrh, certain stages of bronchial affection, and spasmodic asthma—the paroxysm of which it seldom fails to suspend. It has been stated, with much truth, that the effects of ethereal inhalation are marked by three principal stages, which gradually lapse or blend into each other. The first has been regarded as the stage of excitation, evidenced by redness or flushing of the face, slight in crease of pulse, and actions, looks, gestures, or speech which betray excitement. The second stage is marked by unconsciousness and sensibility, depressed pulse, long inspirations, and general relaxation of the muscular system, commonly so complete as to prevent speech and motion. The third stage is manifested by faintness or complete syncope, attended with stupor and unconscious ness, small or imperceptible pulse, collapse of all the vital functions, coldness of the surface, palor of the face and lips, clammy perspiration, loss of muscular power and action, even in the muscles of respiration, and finally by death itself. It can scarcely be necessary to observe that this stage of collapse results either from the administration of the ethereal vapour in too concentrated a form, or in too large a quantity, or too great a length of time, or, lastly, from particular idiosyncrasy in the patient; and that happily it is very rarely witnessed, if common pru dence be observed, and an apparatus employed in which the exact quantity of ether used, and proportions of it inhaled, can be measured both by the hand and eye ; therefore, on the latter account, the apparatus should be of glass. 7,006 The writer concludes by describing an apparatus, which he recommends to be used for the inhalation of the ether. • Under tha eye and by the direction of A. T. Thompson and others. LAMENNAIS ON SOCIALISM. The National says--" One of our friends having earned that certain persons wanted to mix up the name of M. Larcennais with some of the socialist agitations, addressed a letter to the illustrious writer to learn his opinions respecting these doctrines. He has received the following reply : " You wish me to tell you, sir, what I think of the Socialist systems. As 'you cannot want me to enter into a discussion which would far exceed the length of a letter, as you merely want my personal views on the matter, I can easily satisfy you. I can only see in the doctrines which have been hitherto brought forward a symptom of the profound want which society ex periences of a better application of justice to the re tribution of labour, in order to improve the con dition, now everywhere so deplorable, of the labouring classes. On that side the attempts made to attain that object can only be applauded. But that, in my opinion, is far from being the case with the means proposed by the different schools. Ido not know a single one which more or less directly does not arrive at this conclusion, that personal appropriation is the cause of the evil which is sought to be remedied; that, in consequence, pro perty ought to cease to be individual —that it ought to be concentrated exclusively in the hands of the state, which, the only possessor of the instruments of labour, should organise labour itself by attributing to each the special function, and rigorously obligatory for him, to which he has been judged fit, and should distribute ac cording to certain rules, on which, however, opinions differ, the fruit of the common labour. It is evident to me that the realisation of such a system would conduct nations to a servitude such as the world never saw ; would reduce man to be nothing but a mere machine, and would eebase him below the negro, of which the planter disposes according to his fancy ; below, in fact, the animal kingdom. Ido not believe that ever ideas more d'sastrously false, more extravagant, and more degrading, entered into the human mind ; and even did they not merit these qualifications, which, in my eye s , at least, are o n ly j us t, none cou ld be more radically im practicable. Fourierism, and some sects originating with the St. Simonian school, not less absurd, in my opinion, in their practical principles, are besides charac terised by a negation more or less absolute of all mo rality. I have nothing to say about them, the publi c feelingNhas already jud ge d th em . Y ou asked me for my opinion, and here you have it." THE WHEAT CROP. We notice with the greatest pain a circumstance which, if we believed it could become universal, would indeed make the measure of our calamities to overflow. We rerer to the statement abroad that symptoms of failure have developed themselves in the young wheat crop. This failure was first adverted to in the Drog heda Argus of Saturday last, and it was said to extend through the counties of Meath and Louth, as well as Dublin. At the meeting in the Music Hall, yesterday, the respected Secretary, Mr. Frazer, added his testimony to the fact, and as we believe he is largely connected with the practical agriculturists of the country, especially in the counties adjoining Dublin, we are compelled to give some weight to his assertion, though we wouldgladly believe it to be exaggerated. We find it stated in some of the public journals that in several instances the wheat fields, thus disclosing symptoms of decay, have been ploughed up, and other crops sown. , Let us hope, how ever, that the parties acting thus were premature, and that, had they suffered them to remain, they would have found the young shoots to revive again. The second winter, which set in towards the middle of February, and the bleak north-east wind which pre vailed for many days, were well calculated not only to retard the growth of the young plants, but to parch and make them sickly also. Yet we have no doubt the root was sound, and we are the more confirmed in this opinion because we find that in the rich district in and around Limerick, where the same appearances had been apparent, they are gradually giving way before the genial spring weather, and the soft rains which hare fallen during the last eight days. We trust the same effects from the same cause will be general. At the same time, we cannot but say that it augments our anxiety and our pain to recollect that it was in those districts where now the wheat-blight is supposed to operate in which the potato-blight was first developed also. Absit omen.—Weekly Register. THOMAS GREY, THE RAILWAY PIONEER.—If it were not for the apathy which now prevails on nearly all public questions, and the increased demands which every one has found upon his resources, we should reiterate the claims of the railway pioneer, who spent the best years of his life in urgingupon the attention of Government the importance of adopting a national railway system—who spent the money that would have rendered him independent in these his latter days, in endeavouring to demonstate the practicability of a plan which would havegreatly increased the national wealth and have rapidly advanced the welfare of the people. Mr. Grey was, however, derided as a fool and a madman. The newspapers inserted his advertise ments, but pitied his infatuation. Official people smiled at his plan, and railed at his pertinacity: and now when all admit that if listened to, he would have done the State good service—he has the mortification to see his argu guments coolly appropriated by others, and the merits of his far-seeing judgment forgotten in the blind adulation of the mere speculator who has grown rich at the publi c expense, and through the public neglect of Thomas Grey's plans. Had Mr. Grey been listened to, we should have had a national railway sytem long ago—the best lines would have been made in the cheapest manner, and an ever-increasing source of wealth would have enlarged the revenue and added to the conveniences of the people. ---Weskrn Times. ASSIZE INTELLIGENCE. OXFORD ClRCUlT.—Stafford, March 23. There, were fourteen Crown cases remainint for trial this morning, though this is the commission day for Shr.wsbury. Some of these being indictments fur per jury, in which the accused were out on bail, was or dored to stand over till the next as.izes. Their Lord ships remair.cd ail day to try the other cases. It was said that Mr. Ser;.-,e,,tot ralfourd or Mr. S,rgeaht: Adan will open the comm,ssion at Shre‘ , si,,ify, and that busi ness will not commence there till Tnur,d4y, it being in tended to observe to-morrow with all the strictness suit able to a day set apart for national humiliation. CROWN counz—(Beforo Mr. Justice MAri.E.) Pit be Winkle was indicted for concealing the birth of her illegitimate male child on the 9th of November last. Mr. Vaughan conducted the prosecution; the prisoner was undefended. It appeared that the prisoner was in the service of a Mrs. Davis, and that on the day in question Mrs. Davis, t.uspecting that she had been delivered of a child, asked her whether the fact was so? The prisoner denied it. Her mistress thereupon insisted upon going up stairs to her room and examining her box, and therein found a new-born child, quite d, ad. A surgeon, who made a post morteni examination, said that the child had never breathed. The prisoner on being now called on for her defence, merely charged her mistress with as,isting in the concealment. She wss found Guilty, and his Lore ship, in passing sentence, said the grtatest aggrava tion of her offence was her telling such a wanton lie of her mistress, but as she had been already imprisoned so long, he would direct her to be imprisoned only for ten days more. Benjamin Cooper was indicted for the manslaughter of Francis Taylor, on the 23d of February last. Mr. Vaughan appeared for the prosecution; Mr. Meteyard defended the prisoner. From the evidence adduced, it app; tred that at four o'clock in the morning of the 23d of February the de ceased was employed, with a man of the name of Thomas, in sinking a coal-pit at Wille r h a ll, an d t h at the primmer was employed as banksman at that time at the mouth of the pit. It is the duty of the banksman, upon the skip or " bowk" being drawn up; containing materials sent up by the men in the shaft, to cover the mouth of the pit with a waggon, and secure the waggon with a pin, to prevent the waggon from slipping, and so leave a portion of the mouth uncovered before the " bowk" is emptied of its contents. On the morning in questi,n a " bowk" full of bricks had been sent up by the sinkers, and, on its reaching•the top of the pit, the pisoner drew the waggon across the mouth of the pit, but omitted to secure it with the pin. In consequence of this omission the waggon slipped and left part of the mouth uncovered, through which some of the bricks from the " bowk," striking against a part of the tackle, were precipitated, and falling upon the deceased in the shaft, caused his death. The Learned JUDGES summed up, and told the jury that if they thought that from want of due and reason able care on the part of, the prisoner the deceased came by his death, he was guilty of manslaughtt r. The jury found the prisoner Guilty, and, after a suitable admonition, his LORDsUIP sentenced him to be imprisoned two months, with hard labour. The business in this court was not over till half-past six o'clock. (Before Mr. Sergeant GAZELEE.) Edward Nightingale was indicted for forgery under the following circumstances : The prisoner was a parish constable at Wednesbury, and came with a number of witnesses from that neigh bourhood to the last assizes'in this town, to prosecute a man of the name of Joseph Bate for manslaughter. After the trial he got an order in the usual form from the deputy-clerk of assize on the county treasurer for the payment of the witnesses' expenses. The order directed the payment of 17s. 6d. each to (amongst others) two persons named Dani e l H ar p er and Samuel- Eggin ton. It is the usage for the treasurer to pay the order on having it presented to him with the name of the payees signed on the. back of it, with the sum due to them opposite their names, as" Daniel Harper, 17s. 6d.; Samuel Egginton, 17s. 6d." The prisoner forged the above names and sums on the back of the order, pre sented it, and got the money, and gave the parties only 14s. each, telling them that that was all that they were allowed. On their discovering the real circum stances, a prosecution was instituted against him, and he was now put to the bar to answer—first, to an indict ment charging him with having forged Daniel Harper's name, with intent to defraud that person. Mr. Kettle prosecuted, and Mr. Huddleston defended the prisoner. It was proved that it was the custom in the office of the county treasurer to pay the money to the person bringing the order, on seeing the names of the parties written opposite the sums directed to be paid to them. If the constable did not bring the order with the names on, it would not be paid. Harper proved that he had not written his name on the order, or authorised any one to do so. The prisoner gave him only 14s. altogether, but did not say anything as to how much was due to him. After paying that sum he desired the prosecutor to meet him at the railway station in order to get a ticket home, but did not say who was to pay fur it. The charge for it would be 2s. Mr. HUDDLEsToN objected that the document in ques• tion was not a receipt or acquittance as described in the indictment, but an order for the payment of money; that even if it were in fact on the evidence a receipt or acquittance, yet as it did not on the face of it purport to be either a receipt or acquittance, the indictment was bad for not stating how it was a receipt. Mr. KETTLE, having proceeded to answer the objection, was stopped t'y His LORDSHIP, who said he had no doubt on the question, but, if necessary, would reserve it for the con sideretion of the judges. Mr. HUDDLESTON having addressed the jury, con tending that there was no proof of any fraudulent intention on the part of the prisoner, as he meant to apply the remaining 3s. 63. towards the expense of taking the prosecutor home, His LORDSHIP summed up, and the verdict was Not Guilty. The prisoner wet again tried on a similar indictment, charging him with an intent to defraud Samuel Egginton. The evidence was the same as in the last case, except that Egginton said the prisoner told him the 14s. was all that was coming to him; thAt the prosecutor paid his own fare from Bescot to Stafford; that the witnesses walked from home to Bescot station on coming to the assizes, and that the prisoner did not say a word as to taking the witnesses back home in a cart from Bescot station. The prisoner was again Acquitted. George Cooke, Thomas Wright, and Elijah Moore, were indicted for cutting and wounding Thomas Hughes, a police-constable, at Stoke-upon-Trent, on the 25th of November last. Mr. Huddleston con]ucted the prosecution; M. Meteyard appeared for Cooke; and Mr. Woolrych fee the other two prisone It appeared that on Sunday, the 25th of November last, at 12 o'clock at night, the prosecutor directed a man named Rhodes, whom he called a suspicious character, to go home, and on his refusing to do so collared him, and was thereupon assailed by seven or eight men, and re ceived from the hand of one, whom he swore was Cooke, a wound on the cheek, from which he bled so profusely that his life was endangered, and the side of his face pa ralysed. He tavore that Wright was one of the party, and struck him with a stick, and that another of them resembled Moore. Wright was seen a mile and a half off, at Fenton, half an hour after the outrage. When the prisoner Cooke was taken into custody there were spots of blood on his jacket and trousers; and conversa tions were deposed to by two policemen, which were overheard from the passsages between the cells where the prisoners were confined, and tended to show that the prisoners were together on the eight in question when the attack on the prosecutor was made, and were con cerned in it. Certain statements were also proposed to be given in evidence, which had been elicited by ques tions put to the prisoners separately when in custody by the superintendent of the police, but the Learned Judge expressing disapprobation of such a mode of obtaining evidence, the counsel for the prosecution declined to give them in evidence. It was elicited on cross-examination that two policemen had been put into the same cells with the prisoners, disguised —one in a smock-frock, the other also in some ordinary dress—for the purpose of entering into conversation with the prisoners; that they pretended to have been committed, one for felony, and the other for disobedience to a bastardy order. Hughes swore he did not strike Rhodes when he was wounded. Mr. METEYARD addressed the jury, contending that the prosecutor was mistaken as to the identity of Cooke. Mr. WOoLRYCH, for Wright and Moore, urged—first, that the wound was the act of one person, in which none of the others wet e implicated; and, secondly, that there was no evidence to connect Wright and Moore with the transaction. Several witnesses were called to prove that the police. man struck Rhodes on the night in question. Th a t p. rson had been found soon after the affray,near the spot, covered with blood. A number of witnesses gave all the prisoners good characters. Mr. HUDDLESTON replied. His LORDSHIP summed up, and all th ree pr i soners were convicted, and transported for ten years. His LORDSHIP sat till nearly five o'clock. MIDLAND ClRCUlT.—Leicester, March 23. NISI PRIUS COURT.—(Before Air. Justice I'ATTE ION and a Special Jury.) TYLER AND WIPE V. DUDLEY AND ANOTHER. This action was in trespass. Mr. liumfrey and Mr. Macaulay for the plaintiffs; Mr. Wbitehurst and Mr. Barnaby for the defendants. The plaintiffs in this action are in an humble station in life, living at Wineswold, in this county, a village about five miles from Loughborough. The defendants, the Rev. J. Dudley and Mr. Danvers, are two of the Loughborough be nc h o f magistrates. The wife of the male plaintiff had quarrelled with a neighbour, named Mary Crooks. For this she was brought upon a war rant be forethe two m ag i strates i n question, who, having nojurisdiction, dismis se d t h e compla i nt, b ut mulcted her in 11. 18s. costs, leaving her the alternative of going to prison, if she did not pay, and she was sentenced to fourteen days' imprisonment and hard labour. The poor woman went to prison, but it being thought strange that a party of irreproachable character should be to prison for costs in a case wherein the magistrates had no jurisdiction, inquiry was set on foot, and the commitment being bad on the face of it, a memo rial was sent to the then Secretary of State for the Home Department (Sir James Graham), who ins,antly ordered her discharge, with an admonition to the ma gistrates to be careful in such eases for the future. The husband had brought an action for the loss of his wife's services, &c., during the time of her imprison ment, which lasted for e ight day s , but 5/ being paid into court, he accepted that.

Th e c i rcumstance to which :s alludes, whether t rue or false, has been fr e ely spoke of in the French capital for some considerable time;,. "Is it, or is it not, t rue t h at i n an o bli gat i on unaf'„ seingprive, written entirely by Don Francisco de Asst in January, 1840, this Prince declares that to renal . pense the services rendered or to be rendered, the s" • v awes made or to be made, the measures past or t° come, having for object his marriage with Queen M l ' bella 11., of Spain, he constitutes himself debtor 10 Messieurs. which shall become due . at the moment of the 0 6cial celebration of the said marriage; that the said Oro shall be considered as a holy and sacred debt, pass' ing even before the obligations of the • State, and that in order that the engagement subscribed may have force and value, notwithstanding the mi nority of his Royal Highness the Infante Don Francisco, his august father has taken part in the contract in order to emancipate him specially as regards the contracted obligati on , an d to ma k e himself resporr sible for it ? 2. Is it or i s i t not true that this obli gation, signed by the I n f an t e ' s f at h er an d s on, was de: posited with a notary at Paris ? 3. Is it or is it nut true that a retroce ss i on o f 3,0 00,000 f. on t h e 8,000,060 w forming the am,unt of the obligation, took place tio, same day on the part of Monsieur in favour of Count de —, to enable him to recompense the service!' rendered directly to the Infante for the same object ald from the same cause ; that on the sth of October for lowing Count de --- consented in his turn to the dr legation of 125,000 francs to Monsieur in cone' quence of two journeys made to Madrid by the latter; and that this obligati on st i pu l ate d t h at the i n terest c' that sum should be due to the said Monsieur ---- from the day on which the condition forming the bath of the said obligation should be accomplished, ua the day on which the payment of the capital should be i entirely effected? 4. I s it or i s i t not true that t h e leg , existence of the obli gat i on d epos i te d w i th a notarYt'; we have said above, is proved by an ordonnance de ref e ., of the month of Febr uar y, 1844 , ren d ered contra di c tol between —, who pr o fi te d by p r i nc i pa l o b l i gat i o n, 5 8 the depositor who p re t en d e d t h at t h e deposit had 01, been made for four years? 5.
