Pottup. LINES. I mourn with a heart deep laden with sadness, I sigh in deep sorrow for joys that have fled ; No more on my brow is the semblance of gladness, For hopes that once raised it are withered and dead. I stray 'neath the boughs of the spreading oak tree, And listen at night to the nightingale's song; Her swelling high note yields a balm unto me, As it echoes in sweetness the branches among. I fly from the world, its joys, and false pleasures, That I in deep solitude solace may find, To feast at the banquet of memory's treasures, And sooth the deep anguish that's stamp'd on my mind But joy ne'er returns to the heart that's imbued With sadness for false hopes once eberish'd and bright ; And bliss no more yields to the soul that's subdued By the withering aspect of sorrow's black night. November 18th, 1839. C. C. LITERARY NOTICES. Walks and Wanderings in the World of Literature. By the Author of " Random Recollections," " The Great Metropolis," &c. 2 vols. London : Saunders and Otlei. 1839. We have already extracted very largely from these agree able volumes. They are from the prolific pen of Mr. Grant, who has already provided so largely for the public entertain ment. Like most of Mr. Grant's preceding works, the one under notice contains a variety of light and sketchy articles, interspersed with numberless interesting anecdotes and bio graphical incidents. If popularity may be considered a test of merit, the author of " Walks and Wanderings" must be one of the most meritorious writers of the day. The follow ing enumeration of the titles of the different chapters in these volumes will afford a tolerable indication of the nature of their contents :—Nursery Poetry—Confessions of Peter Pug —The Rivals ; of the Autobiography of a Friend—Misad ventures of a Lover—The Lakes of Scotland—The Soldier and his Wife—The Chieftain and his Vassal—Recollections of Sir Walter Scott—Old Maids, Bachelors, and Marriage— Schoolboy Reminiscences of an Octogenarian—The Fishers of Stotfield—Travels in Morayshire—Juvenile Recollections of an Old Man—My Schoolboy Companions—Notes on the Newspapers—The Village Lovers—The Magic Bridle—The Highland Courtship—The Highland Wedding-7he Kerbock Stone—The Celtic Lovers—The First and Last Robbery— The New Year. We have here a diversity of topics to suit every taste. Many of the essays contain matter which will repay a more than cursory perusal. j `►' i r o The Wife and Mother's Book ; b4O medical mpanion• to the " Young Bride's Book." : B Alexa Stookes, Surgeon, L.S.A., &c. London : Washbou e. This excellent work, from the pen of a townsman, forms an admirable sequel to the " Young Aide's Book," which we have already noticed in terms of well-merited commen dation. Like its predecessor, the *ork before us is exceed ingly neatly and tastily got up, and cannot fail t 44 become very popular. Its contents embrace everything that it is necessary for a mother to know ;. and each of the subjects is treated of in a style peculiarly clear and familiar. The author possesses, in a very high degree, the rare acquirement of making his advice and instructions perfectly intel'igible to the most ordinary capacity. 'his he accomplishes, in a great measure, by avoiding professional technicalities, and using in their steal terms of coma on import. His principal ob ject, as expressed in the preface, hasbeen " to give the young wife the experience of the i4atron," but not to make her a quack doctor. The 4 information which this volume contains respecting the maitgement of health during pregnancy, the conduct of the mother subsequently, and the treatment of children, is high valuable. We feel convinced that the perusal of this bMittifial little tome will obviate many evils and inconveniencis which frequently arise from extreme de licacy. As the author has been very particular in advising when Medical assistance is necessary, the work may be con sulted with the greatest confidence. The Poetical Works of the Rev. R. Montgomery, A.M. New Edition, revised by the Author. Vol. 4. Glasgow : Jahn Symington & Co. ; London : Ball, Arnold, & Co. 1839. The present volumne of the works of this very popular " poet an I divine" will add materially to his well-acquired fame. The principal poem is that on " Death." It abounds with grand imagery, solemn reflections, and deep and fervid piety: The author frequently rises with his subject until he attains the true sublime. The " Universal Prayer" is an eminently beautiful production, strongly reminding us of Thomson's best style. The " Vision of Heaven" and the " Vision of Hell" afford a striking proof of Mr. Montgomery's powers of vivid description. The supernatural terrors of the one, and the glory and beatitude of the other, are depicted in language the most forcible and glowing. The " Stage Coach," which concludes the volume, has never appeared in print be fore. It displays a very discursive fancy, and shews that the author is a keen and penetrating observer of men and man ners. The Fathers have no Authority to determine Articles of Faith. An Essay delivered in the Divinity School, Ox ford. By the Rev. Thomas Byrth, D.D. Oxford : D. A. Talboys. 1839. This admirable Essay constitutes one of two exercises read by the respected author for the degree of Bachelor of Diyinity. A more suitable exercitation we have seldom met witt. Would that all clergymen, on their admission to the higher degrees in r . our universities, availed themselves, in like mariner, of the opportunity of instilling such sound and or thOdo7f, opinions into the minds of their j un i ors , as th ose wilic;embodied and vividly set forth in the Essay before us. - If such were a more general practice, we should hear le;s of the ascendancy of Puseyism. Dr. Byrth could not, at ;the present crisis, have chosen a more seasonable topic than the authority of tradition in matters of faith. Unhap pily, many divines in the Church of England have lately given publicity to opinions on this subject which are almost iden ti&al with, or, at least strikingly assimilated to, those which are held by the apostate Church of Rome. We are glad that Dr. Byrth has ventured into this field of discussion. Few modern theologians are better qualified than he is to grapple with the subtle advocatds of the doctrine against which he has entered his protest. To those whose minds have been unsettled by the specious writers of the " Oxford Tracts," we would earnestly recommend the perusal of this Essay. It attacks the very strong-hold of Puseyism. Driven out of the refuge afforded by traditionary authority, neither Dr. Pusey, Mr. Newman, Mr. Keble, nor Dr. Hook, have any means of defence left them. We trust that this Essay will obtain an extended circulation. Plain Abstracts for Popular Use of all the Acts of Public Interest, passed in the Session 2 and 3 Victoria. By J. H. Brady, Author of " Plain Instructions to Ex ecutors," &c. London : Washbonrne. 1839. This is an exceedingly cheap and useful compendium. It forms one of a series of plain legal guides, important to all classes of the community. It is written in a very intel ligible style, and familiarises the provisions of all the most important acts of the last session to the most ordinary un derstanding. Of the following acts it gives a pretty copious analysis :—The Metropolitan and other Police Acts—the Postage Act—the Paper Duties Act—the Copyright of De signs Act-new Regulations for the Protection of Parties dealing with Bankrupts—the Acts for the Improvement of Prisons—for the Abolition of the She Trade—for the Sus pension of the Usury Laws, &c. The full titles of all the acts passed during the Session are also given. A Catechism of the Natural History of Man. By James Nicol. Edinburgh : Oliver and toyd ; Lvdon : Simp kin, Marshall, and Co. 1839. This useful little work embraces a large fund of informa tlim respecting the peculiar characters of the human species —their progress and developement—the different varieties of mankind—and the causes of these distinctions. This in formation is arranged in the popular and intelligible shape of question and answer, and is accompanied by several suitable engravings illustrative of the subject. Statement of Facts relating to Steam Communication with India, on the Comprehensive Plan. With an Appendix. London : Smith. Elder, and Co. 1839. Those who are interested in the important subject of steam communication with India, will find in this temperately written pamphlet much useful information, derived from a variety of sources. The author has taken great pains in the compilation and arrangement of his matter. La 1y Flora Hastings. The Court Doctor Dissected; with aiserrations on the Statements of Lady Portman and the Marchioness of Tavistock. By J. F. Murray, Esq. M.D. . - 3d Edition, corrected. London :W. E. Painter. 1839. This pamphlet contains an able and conclusive exposure of the professional fallacies in Sir James Clark's " Statement," and some very powerful animadversions on the conduct pur sued by the Ladies in Waiting, towards the late Lady Flora Hastings. There is much' other important matter incorpo rated with these remarks, which cannot fail to attract general attention. The Confessions of Harry Lorrequer. Part 9. Illustrated by Phiz. Dublin : W. Curry, jun. and Co ; London : W. S. Orr and Co. • The present number of Harry Lorrequer is peculiarly rich and graphic in its descriptions. " The Proposal" is exceed ingly well told, and Harry's escape from his awkward dilem ma is capitally managed. " The Reminiscence," with the illustration by Phiz, is inimitably droll. Mr. O'Leary's capture will afford a hearty laugh : indeed, there is scarcely a chapter in these " confessions" which will not move the risible muscles into uncontrollable activity. The Illustrated Shakspere, revised from the best authori ties. With Annotations, and Introductory Remarks on the Plays, by many distinguished Writers : illustrated with nearly One Thousand Engravings on Wood. Parts 6 and 7. London : Robert Tyas. This exquisitely beautiful edition of the works of the " immortal Bard of Avon," proceeds with great spirit. The parts before us contain the conclusion of Twelfth Night, the whole of Measure for Measure, and the Commencement of Much Ado OM Nothing► The illustrative engravings to these plays are perfect gems, and cannot fail of themselves to procure for this edition an extended circulation. The annotations still further enhance its value. This is emphati cally the edition of Shakspere "for the people." We hof e it will become literally " a book for the million." The pub lisher deserves the highest praise for his spirit and enterprise. Men and Measures; or, the Political Panorama. A Satire Part 2. London : Joseph Thomas. The author of this satire displays great power of mind and vigour of imagination. He lashes vice and scandal with un relenting but merited severity. His pen is like the sting of a scorpion, and must make certain `: courtly glozers " writhe with agony. The literary merits of this production, indepen! dently of its political object, are of the highest order. The author is evidently a man of cultivated intellect. MISCELLANEOUS. It is reported in the sporting circles, that Lord Gardiner will be the new master of the Queen's buck hounds. We understand that Lord Brougham has become a sub sctiber to the Cumberland teetotal society. We have not heard that his lordship has signed the teetotal pledge.—Car lisle Journal. It is in contemplation to construct a railway from Barnlrd Castle to join the Stockton and Darlington railway. The advantages of such an undertaking, as set forth in a pamphlet recently put into circulation in the district, are unquestion able, and there can be little doubt of its proving a profitable speculation.—Newcastle Journal. ELECTRO-MAGNETISM.—CIintOII Roosevelt, Esq., an nounces, in the Evening Post, that he has invented a new electro-magnetic machine, which overcomes entirely the dif ficulties encountered in the operation of Davenport's, so that now the electro-magnetic power may be increased be yond any assignable limits.—New York paper. THE BLOOMSBURY AFFAIR.—As we anticipated, there has been no motion for a new trial in these cases, and the verdicts obtained by Mr. Ridsdale, at Liverpool, are there fore confirmed. No pretence now exists for withholding bets, and we trust all " out-standing accounts" will be " squared" without delay.—Bell's Life. Tan MARQUIS OF HUNTLY.—Some difficulty, we under stand, has occurred as to the sequestration of his lordship's estates and property ; and erroneous statements of the mat ter have appeared in the newspapers. We can state that no opposition to the measure has been offered by any one, and that his lordship at once consented to a sequestration, on being informed that, after the rejection of the trust-deed, the proposed measure would be for the advantage of his cre ditors.—Aberdeen Journal. PENTLAND SKERRIES LIGHTHOUSE, ORKNEY ISLANDS. -It is very common for birds to flock about sea-lights under night in certain states of the weather, but we have not met with an occurrence of the same extent with the following : The Lighthouse Return for October states, that on the night of the 11th they had light airs of wind with hazy weather, when nine dozen of larks, snipes, and woodcocks, were caught fluttering about the lantern, and had more assistance been at hand, double that number might have been secured. —Montrose Standard. . NovELTY.—" There is nothing new under the sun," is a very old, and in the present case a very true adage. Two officers laid claim lately to a supposed invention of a " sweep piece" applied to the gun carriages of ships of war. While this mighty question was pending, and proofs on both sides collecting, Col. Pasley fished up from the wreck of the Royal George a lower-deck gun carriage, having the new sweep attached to it ! As the ship was sunk some years before either of the aspirants for fame were born, they could neither be the copyists nor the inventors !—Hampshire Telegraph. GREAT NORTHERN JUNCTION RAILWAY.—III the month of December, 1838, nearly twelve months ago, an able and scientific report of the projected Line of Railway from New castle-upon-Tyne to Edinburgh via Hexham and North Tyne, prepared by Mr. Blackmore, was laid before the public. In that document the great utility and eligibility of the line in question was forcibly pointed out, and clearly elucidated; and'yet, to our great surprise, the inhabitants of Hexham, who would be in a peculiar manner benefited by the under taking have done comparatively little in support or in favour of the project. We are persuaded that it is only necessary to call the attention of the inhabitants of that town and dis trict to the importance of the subject, and the great advan taees whieh would result to them, in order to induce greater activity than has hitherto bee n displayed. Since the last meeting, held in the month of September, a numbcr of sub scribers have been enrolled, but mach yet remains to be done in this quarter.—Newcastle Journal. MUNIFICENT BEQUEST.— We have learned with great pleasure that the late John Neilson, Esq. of Nether Common, Paisley, has left for the establishment of a seminary for edu cation in that town, the sum of eighteen thousand pounds sterling. This is the first bequest to any considerable amount that has been left for the benefit of the inhabitants of Paisley, and as the late Mr. Neilson has besides made ample provi sion for a numerous circle of relatives, such an important be quest reflects great credit on his memory, and cannot fail to keep both him and his family in the remembrance of the in habitants for many ages to come.—Glasgow Mail. MARCH OF INTELLECT.—The following is a verbatim copy of an application made by a tailor of this town to be allowed to make clothing for the new police :-- "Bolton Oct. 1839. " Estemate gevea by or the polees offices cloathen, 20 cote s an d 20 pare of trouders to be MAD accorden to pateren. 20 to cotes and 20 pare of trowess to be Mad accorden to patteren, and to stockes for the same for the sum of XlOll 10 0. Mrs. Backer, Police offess, Bolton.—Bolton Chronicle. AN ANTIQUARIAN DINNER.—Lord 8., well known for his love of everything out of the way, lately gave a dinner at the baths of Lucca, of the following singular character : The meat, fish, and vegetables were all, at least, of two years standing, preserved according to the plan of M. Appert. The table was supplied with sea water, made fit to drink by the process recently discovered •, the claret had been rescued, by the assistance of the diving bell, from a merchant vessel sunk in the Thames more than a century ago (!), and the bread was made from wheat some centuries old, which the noble lord had himself brought from one of the pyramids of Egypt, and had sown in England!! The dinner gave the greatest satisfaction. (Who is Lord B. ?) GAS HARP.—Some alarm was lately excited in a dwelling of this town by mysterious sounds, like those of the /Eolian harp, in a dark cellar, after sunset. " What is it ?" said one, and would not venture in alone. The sounds were heard night after night, and never in the day time. They recurred at regular intervals, and always the same melancholy tone like those of whip-poor-will in the American forest. At last it was determined to investigate the cause ; a candle was lighted, and the sounds were followed. After climbing over piles of firwood and lumber, it was found to be nothing but the gasmeter, which, for the want of oil, at a certain point of every revolution, uttered a plaintive and noeunpleasing strain of melody.—Bradford Observer. SHOOTING STARS.—There is, in the Noxember number of the London and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine, a curious article on the subject of shooting stars, founded on observations made on the night of August, 1839, written by Mr. Edward Cooper, of Birmingham. This article says„ that the general result of observations on the lights of the lOth and 11th of August furnishes a most remarkable exhi bition of those interesting celestial travellers, and that expe rience fully justifit s the prediction that these, and the nights of the 13th and 14th of November, will in future be their established galas. On the subject of the shooting stars of August last, this article in the Philosophical Magazine ob serves, that " the average number per hour, in the half he misphere to which the writer attended, was 44 : exceeding considerably the average of last year at Geneva." It adds, thut a circumstance particularly worthy of notice this year is, that " several of the shooting stars appeared to move up wards, whereas no instance of this was remarked last year at Geneva." We are requested to notice a memorial to the directors of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway Company, requesting them to put on a first clas train from Liverpool at half-psst 3 o'clock, p.m. This train will be a great accommodation to the cotton and other buyers, who are a very numerous class, in this town and neighbourhood. By the present arrange ment of the trains, if a man cannot finish his business by two o'clock, he must return by the half-past two o'clock train, (a second class) ; and if he cannot finish his business by half past two o'clock, there is no means of returning before a quar ter to five, although the Exchange closes at four. Spinners have been continually detained two hours in Liverpool, after finishing their business, very much to their annoyance and inconvenience.—Manchester Courier. BRITISH REFORMATION SOCIETY.—A meeting of the friends and supporters of this society was held, last evening, at the Corn Exchange. We have seldom seen this room so densely crowded, and the interest excited was most intense. The chair was taken by previous appointment, by the Rev. Hugh Stowell. Upon the platform we observed the Rev. H. W. M'Grath, Rev. R. Frost, Rev. W. J. Kidd, Rev. W. Keary, from Hull, Rev. Brabason Ellis, agent of the society in London, Rev. W. Cumming, of London, Rev. W. Hunt ington, Rev. G. L. Stone, Rev. G. Birch, Rev. L. Dobson, Rev. T. J. Morgan, Rev. T. Baylee, Rev. M. Allen, Rev. W. Bawdwen, Rev. W. G. Mayre, Rev. R. Rigg, John M'Clure, Esq. Rev. W. Hosier, Denton, J. Chadwick, St. James's, &c. &c.—lbid. DEATH FROM A BROKEN HEART.—It isoften said that persons die of a broken heart, although it is generally sup posed that such an event as the bursting of the heart is im possible. At the beginning of the week, Mrs. Cohen, a Jewess, residng in Gough street, was taken confined to her room. There was, however, no apprehension enter tained of her disorder being of a serious nature ; and beyond a little more than ordinary care and gentle medicine, no pre caution was taken. On Wednesday, however, a woman who was cleaning in the house we n t u p s t a i rs to Mrs. Cohen's bedroom, where she found her lying dead upon the floor. An inquest was held on the body, when it appeared, from a post mortem examination, that the deceased's heart had burst, and that she might, indeed, be said to have died of a broken heart. The jury returned a verdict of " Died by the visits ation of God."—Birmingham Journal. EXTRAORDINARY METEORIC PHENOMENON,—The fol lowing is given by Mr. Richard Sainthill, of Cork, of a curious meteoric appearance witnessed by him and others near that city about the end of last month :—" As I was coming into Cork from Ballyvolane, on Monday night, 28th October, 1839, before half-past nine o'clock, on the new Ballyhooly-road, near Mr. Ellis's house, about twenty yards on the country side of the Spring, I was startled by a most vivid flash of clear bright silvery light (I am short-sighted) on the left, towards which I turned and looked ; the ground rises, and on the hill are trees—considerably above which, and, as I have since ascertained by a pocket compass, in the direction of the S.S.E., I saw a body of pure bright light, which to my eyes appeared about the diameter of a gas light, seen from one lamp to another, apparently say 18 inches diameter, falling in a perpendicular direction very rapidly, find leaving a track of red sparkling light, which remained stationary for some time. After descending some distance, the luminous body separated into four or five parts just as it reached two black clouds, that were lying across the horizon, below it, and 1 thought the meteor fell behind the clouds, but I did not see any further appearance in the clear space between the two clouds. I listened attentively, but did not hear any sound whatever. I had remarked an appearance of the Aurora Borealis in the north-west, when leaving my brother's at Ballyvolane that evening. Cork Standard. ESCLIIIMAUX INDIAN: —The Neptune, Penny, just arrived from Davis' Straits, has brought an interesting and intelli gent Esquimaux Indian. He is twenty years of age, about five feet high, and very stout. His appearance is altogether agreeable, and his disposition exceedingly pleasing. H e i s the very picture of good nature, and has evinced a great deal of anxiety to form acquaintance with Europeans. He is evidently possessed of excellent natural abilities ; but he seems to have no idea of the existence of a Supreme Being. This remark, Captain Penny says, is applicable to the tribe to which he belongs, with the exception that, when any of their party die in warlike strife, or in the field when hunting, they console themselves with the thought that they have gone upwards. This Esquimaux has come over by his own request, and with the full consent of his parents ; and, from the information which Captain Penny has received from him, he is strongly convinced that he will be able to trace out new and important discoveries in regard to the fishing grounds on west coast ; but of this, more anon. In the mean time we may state, that the only object Captain Penny has in view in bringing him over is, to get him educated, that he may be able to instruct his friends and others when he Warns Bain to his native country.--Aberdeen Herald, HEttnicw CiAßGYmm—There are now, at leaiit, eight clergymen of the Church of England who are of the Hebrew nation.- MR. CoLatmonN, M.P.—A public dinner is to be given to Mr. Colquhoun; on Thursday the 28th current, on the occasion of his being installed into the office of Lord Rector of Marischal College; Aberdeen. ROCHDALE FLANNEL MARKET, MONDAY, Nov. 18.— There is little change in the market to report to-day ; there has been a moderate quantity of business done at very low prices. —Wool market dull, at rather declining prices. There is not the slightest rumour of the Queen and Court occupying the Pavillion this winter, but it is generally thought her Majesty will visit Brighton shortly of Christmas, although the stay of the Court i s n ot lik e ly t o excee d a week. When Lord Glenlyon and his bride left the scene of their marriage, they were, says the Perth Constitutional, followed by " the hearty good wishes of all assembled, not forgetting the good old custom of a shower of old shoes for good luck !" CHARTISM IN LONDON.—The Lord Mayor has issued a notice prohibiting public preaching in Smithfield and all other parts of the city, as it has proved only an excuse for disor derly meetings, to the disturbance of the peace. Chartists' " sermons,' as the chartists call them have hitherto been frequent, and generally ended in serious breaches of the peace, to the alarm of the peaceably-disposed inhabitants. PROPERTY IN COVENT GARDEN THEATRE.—The ma chinery and decorations are worth from £BOOO to £lO,OOO. The property consists of alpiost everythingin creation, deco rations of every nation and all periods ; there are creations of all sorts, from the fly to the whale. The carpenter of the theatre has under his charge property of the value of £lO,OOO. The wardrobe is worth £lO,OOO ; the music library £l3OO ; the dramatic library £230 ; and the organ cost £472. 10s. A report gained currency in Bradford, on Sunday, that the chartists of Horton, Clayton Heights, and Lidgett Green, meditated a descent on the town ; and a great deal of alarm was manifested. As it is believed that mischief is intended by them, the soldiers have been kept in the town, although the barracks are ready for them. Secret meetings and bullet moulding are going on to a great extent ; but it is to be hoped that these infatuated beings will profit by the example of Newport, and preserve their lives.—Halifax Express. SINGULAR DETECTION OF A THIEF.—The other day, a rather laughable detection of a thief occurred at Veryan. A man had stolen a garden door, and was making away with it across the churchyard, when he stumbled and fell into a large thicket of brambles. The fellow was so alarmed that he shouted murder most lustily, and brought to his assistance many of the villagers, who found him entangled in the bram bles with the door by his side. Of course the marauder will be punished for the theft.—West Briton. THE GURNEY LIGHT.—On Thursday evening week, the new chapel in the Borough-road, London, was opened for divine worship, by the Rev. Dr. Liefchild. The chapel was lighted by a single Bude light, suspended from the centre of the ceiling, which diffused ample illumination throughout every part of the chapel; of a beautiful pure white light, and its effect was agreeable in the highest degree. Upwards of a thousand persons were present. A NOVEL MODE OF RAISING THE WIND.—A person named Smith was brought before the Rochdale magistrates last Saturday, under the following charge :—He had been accustomed, for some weeks back, to stop children in the street, who had been sent by their parents to seek harm. He generally went up to them, asking if they did not want harm ; and if answered in the affirmative, he would ask for their can and money, giving them at the same time a can (which he had taken from some customer), to hold while he returned from some place near, which he mentioned, where the de sired article was to be purchased. Thus he pocketed the money, and went in search of some other dupe. EMIGRATION.—Another vessel for New Zealand, the Company's ship Bolton, reached Gravesend last night, and will sail this afternoon. She carries labouring emigrants ex clusively of the agricultural class, and several cabin passen gers. Among the latter are the Rev. J. F. Churton, a minis ter of the Church of 'England, and family ; Joseph Mint, Esq., &c., &c. Mr. Churton goes out with an endowment from the society for the Propagation 9f the Gospel, and car ries with him a liberal grant of boo ks from the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge. The emigrants are sup plied by the New Zealand Company with books for their amusement and for the instruction of their children during the voyage.—Spectator. THE NEWPORT CHARTISTS.—It has been rumoured that the government intend to enter into a compromise with Frost and his followers, by. suffering them to leave the kingdom, instead of awaiting the result of their trial. This is likely enough ; for as Frost and Co. were taken under the special protection of Lord John Russell when home secretary, it is only natural, now his lordship has the colonies under his control, that the future career of these worthies in the penal settlements should be confided to his care. Perhaps, how ever, Lord John Russell, taking a hint from Lord Durham, may recommend Mr. Poulett Thomson to receive Mr. Frost as his private secretary, or principal legal adviser.—Herald. DEATH OF PROFESSOR HAMILTON, OF EDINBURGH.— It is our painful duty to announce the demise of one of our oldest and most respected fellow-citizens, the accomplished professor of midwifery in this university. This melancholy event took place at an early hour on Thursday morning, after l i an illness of a few weeks duration, occasioned by the active and over zealous discharge of his professional engagements. For nearly half a century Dr. Hamilton dischaged the duties of that professorial chair with the utmost ability and satisfac tion to the public. Indeed, the able, lucid, and masterly manner in which these were performed, and the valuable contributions which his powerful mind brought forth to the theory and practice of the obstetric department of medicine, will be attested by thousands of practitioners formerly his pupils, resident not only in our own country, but in the most •distant parts of the globle.—Edinburgh Advertiser. A SPLENDID OTTER HUNT ON A SMALL SCALE.—On Saturday last, as Mr. John Knowles was was walking in the fields bordering on the brook which divides Longton township from that of Hutton, his dog (a water spaniel) suddenly fell on the scent of some animal, and after a famous hunt of up vvardsi of a hour, stopped at the mouth of a large burrow, out of which issued a large, fine, full-grown otter. After a des perate struggle, and many deep wounds given and received on both sides, the otter broke loose, and made across the fields ; the little water spaniel, though much exhausted, close at her heels. Several neighbours had by this time corn up, and the scene became most animated. The otter, by no means relishing the close attendance of the spaniel, little " Swam" made to a deep, broad ditch, hung with thick brush wood, when a person named Henry Garstang opportunely darting into the intervening space, the chased animal wheeled about, and shewed her teeth to her enemies ; and after a most desperate fight, yielded up her life to the superior prowess of the valiant spaniel. The animal is a female, weighs 131bs, measures 3 feet 2 inches from the tip of her nose to the end of her tail, and is considered by the knowing ones to be a very fine specimen of her tribe. The good people of Long ton have not enjoyed such field sport for "many a day."— Preston Chronicle. TRAVELLING FOR KNOWLEDGE.—" Ccelum non animum mutat ," saith the poet ; but in his time the new world was not discovered, neither was Mr. Poulett Thomson born to illustrate the effect of climate upon the understanding. No sooner did Mr. Thomson, Right Honourable Governor, Captain General, and Vice Admiral of British North Ame rica, set foot in Canada, than his disposition towards our transatlantic brethren became so changed, that, except for the accident of going by the same name, he would hardly be recognised for the same man. While on this side of the water, he held the Canadas to be more cost than worship ; and of all the absurdities under the sun none appeared so monstrous to him as encouraging the Canadian export trade, when it is so much handier to fetcti our timber from the Bal tic. The Canadians consequently did not expect much be nefit from being placed under his thumbs ; and they must have been agreeably disappointed by the benign announce ment on his arrival, that the voyage had cleared his head of some old misconceptions touching the value of colonialtrade, and that he should henceforth do everything in his power to promote it. As the head of a whig statesman can be cleared by so mechanical a process as sending it on so short a trip as to the St. Lawrence—just as they send wine, for the pur pose of fining it, on a trip to th e I n di es an d back—it would not be amiss if a few more of her majesty's ministers were treated with a berth on board of some of her Majesty's fast sailing packets. If the country even found that they were nothing the better on their return, it would at any time gain something in the meanwhile by their absence.—Morning Herald. ALARM IN ST. OSWALD'S CHURCH, CHESTER.—The congregation at this church was thrown into a considerable state of alarm and excitement on Sunday last, by a small portion of the building falling into the church during the time of service, accompanied by a rumbling noise, occasioned by the fragments falling on the pews and seats. An immediate rush was made to . the doors, and for some time the screams of the children of the four schools attending there, were ter rific, and were heard in Eastgate-street and the neighbour hood. At the door leading into the broad isle of the Cathe dral a number of the Blue Coat Boys, and several females, were thrown down and trampled upon by the crowd. One elderly female was carried out of the edifice by Mr. Edwards, of the Blue School, in a very exhausted state from the fright; she did not appear, however, to be much hurt. One of the Green Cap Boys lay for some time on the ground, and, in consequence of being a cripple, was unable to raise himself up until his master, who heard his groans, drew him from under the feet of the crowd. He appeared to be much inju red ; and complained of his chest and stomach ; it was also thought at the time that his right arm was broken, but, upon carrying him to Mr. Roberts, surgeon, in Abbey-street, it was found that no bones were broken. The Rev. Archdeacon Clarke followed the boy into Mr. Robert's, and sent for a sedan to convey him home, but after some time the boy re covered a little, and with the assistance of the master and another person, walked home. We und ers t an d th a t, w ith the exception of a 'few slight bruises received by the boys whilst on the ground, this was the only accident that occurred. Several articles of female dress, such as boas, capes, shawls, &c. were found and restored to the owners. The Rev. Mr. Harrison behaved with the greatest coolness and presence of mind, in endeavouring to calm the fears of the children and females. It is but a short time since a similar accident oc curred in the same church, when a piece of slate was driven with considerable force into one of the book-boards of the free-sittings, where it now remains. It is a singular circum stance, that both accidents should have occurred during the time of Divine service, and we hope the attention of the pro per authorities will be immediately directed to the state of the building, lest more serious consequentes may follow.— Chester Courant. STRANGE ROMANCE OF REAL BIOGRAPHY.—MT. Clark told me the following story :—That when he was at Alicant a galley arrived, which had just escaped from Tangiers with the first or favourite wife of Muli Mahomed, the late emperor of Morocco, who had lately been assassinated by his rebellious son, Muli Ismael. This lady, who, with her attendants, was seeking a refuge in Spain, was originally a Miss Thompson, of Cork, and when on her passage from that city to Cadiz, on a matrimonial expedition, she had been captured by a Moorish corsair, and made a slave. Her first intended bride groom had been a Mr. Shee, an Irish merchant settled at Cadiz, who, during a visit which he had made to his native country, had become acquainted with and attached to Miss Thompson, who possessed great charms ; but as some im pediments existed to their immediate union, they parted, having first plighted their troth ; and with the understanding that at some future period she should join him at Cadiz, as it would be injurious to his commercial interest for him to ab sent himself again from the field of his speculations. The lady, in fulfilment of her promise, sailed to join her future husband; but as just'narrated, her destiny was changed by the capture of the vessel she was in, by a Marroquin corsair, which carried her into Fez. Here Miss Thompson was de tained as a slave, and closely confined, until a report of her uncommon beauty having reached the emperor, Muli Ma homed, she was by his orders removed to the imperial palace, and every inducement was held out to her to embrace the Mahomedan faith, and to accede to the emperor's desire of making her his wife, Whether it was by persuasion, or from the conviction that her fate was irrevocably decided, her va rious scruples were overcome, and she became the wife of Muli Mahomed, and subsequently the mother of two sons, who bore the names, the eldest of Mull Ismael, and the younger of Muli Mahomed. She was ever the most favoured of her imperial husband's wives, for he had many besides ; and the number must have been great, as I have heard both from Mr. Clark and Mr. Romans, who was at one time es- tablished as a merchant in MorocCo, that the emperor Mahomed actually formed a regiment, composed entirely of his own sons, to the number of five hundred and twenty three, most of them being blacks. Mr. Clark says that this wonderful fated lady, when he saw her in Spain, was dressed in the Moorish costume ; and strange as it appears, she seemed in all respects to have adopted the taste of her new country in preference to those of Christendom, for she after wards returned tO M9rOeco, and there ended her days,.Mn. Broug4ton, General Sir R. Stevenson, K.C.8., died at sea July 30, on board the Moira, arrived in the Downs. The Irish bishops are about to hold a consultation in Dublin on matters relating to their church. English travellers are again flocking to Athens, now that the oppressive heats of summer are passed. The Theatre at Oldfiam has been converted into a place of worship by the Welsh Methodists. The Hon. Stafford Jerningham is still suffering from the effect of the wound he received at Eglinton Castle. Lord Normanby has declared to interfere in the matter of Collins and Lovett, now confined in Warwick Gaol. Mr. Macaulay, the new Secretary at War, has appointed Mr. C. Z. Macaulay to be his own private secretary. No agreement with a baker is binding unless the service be for one year, according to the act of Elizabeth, for the regulation of that trade. The Quotidienne states that Prince George of Hanover has just published a work in German, entitled, " Reflections on the Effects and Properties of Music." At Exeter the lawyers are getting up a petition for the em ployment of the three salaried ex-Chancellors, to bring up the arrears in the Court of Chancery. Mr. Sims, chairman of the Great Western Railway Com pany, in a fit of temporary insanity, on Friday, put a period to his existence by shooting himself through the head. The Duke of Wellington, since his appointment to the office of Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, has annually paid to the Treasury, for the public service, the whole amount of the proceeds of the office. Mr. Barrett, of the Dublin Pilot, will not, it is said, be brought up for judgment, having arranged to hand over a sum of one hundred pounds to some charity, and to make a public apology. ORDNANCE ACADEMY.—The gentlemen cadets at Wool wich have been ordered to discontinue wearing the shoulder belt, unless on duty or drill, as it assimilates them too much with the private soldiers. Mr. John Greene, of Reading, who was formerly a part ner in the firm of Greene, Roberts, and Co., of Sheffield, has by his will bequeathed the handsome sum of £5OO to the Boys Charity School of this town.—Sheffield Iris. Mr. Roby, the banker, of Rochdale, is expected to be the •second conservative candidate for the representation of Bol ton-le-Moors, in the next parliament. We hope he will be the colleague of Mr. Bolling. The Bolton canal was drained on Sunday morning last, be tween the wharf and the Haulgh-bridge ; arid, on removing a portion of the mud, the workmen found 18 pikes of about 16 inches in length.—Yorkshireman. Several accidents have lately occurred from the system of battue shooting. Amongst them we hear that Earl Spencer, who has been for some days on a visit to the Earl of Leices ter, at Holkham, was shot through the hat and slightly wounded in the head.—Sunday paper. Viscount Melgund, M.P. has been appointed private secre tary to his father, the First Lord of the Admiralty, in the place of Mr. Tufnell, who has recently been appointed Secretary of the Treasury. Tint NORTH DEVON ELECTION.—A correspondent in forms us that the expenses of the late election to James Wentworth Buller, Esq., was very little short of £9,000 ! ! It is also stated that the aristocratic spirit of this gentleman would not permit him to accept of the meagre subscription purse which was proffered.—Woolmer's Exeter Gazette. ATTEMPT TO POISON THE KING OF PRUSSIA.—The Jesuits have made an attempt to poison the King of Prussia. Popery is unchanged—is it ? The Archbishop of Posen has a plenary indulgence to take thi s t ru ly Protestant Monarch's life by any means. We hope some zealous adherent of the Protestant faith will prevent this. The fight must come, and Prussia nobly leads the way.—Aye. It is with sincere pleasure we announce to our readers that the thanks of the general commanding in chief have been conveyed, in the most h an d some t erm s, t o Li eu t enant Gray and Ensign Stack, of the 45th, and to the men com posing the detachment of that regiment under their command, for the steady, spirited, and soldier-like manner in which they resisted and repulsed the body of chartists at Monmouth, on the 4th of the present month.—United Service Gazette. EDITORIAL REQUISITES.—The New York Herald, after naming the editors of the penny press in that city, says,— " Many of these litterateurs are tolerably smart men, and though they may have tact and savoi r vivre enough fot2turn ing a penny by editing penny papers, yet it would take half a dozen of them, ground up like flour, and rdlled together in butter, mustard, cayenne, and champagne, to be capable of conducting a paper like the Herald for one week. His Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex has consented to act as administrator to the estates of his late brother, the Duke of York. The death of his executors, Sir Herbert Taylor and Sir Benjamin Stephenson, rendered this step ne cessary. Her Royal Highness the Princess Sophia is resi duary legatee, and although her Royal Highness has always been willing to abandon her claims in favour of the creditors, still she has a right, through her illustrious brother, to pro tect her own interests, as well as that of the creditors. We regret to learn that Mr. Alfred Montgomery, who is known to the public as the innocent instrument recently employed to procure, by anticipation, post obit notices of Lord Brougham from our London contemporaries, has him self since become an actual party to a truly lamentable acci dent. Whilst shooting at Levermere, in Suffolk, the seat of Charles Marty n, Esq., the gun of Mr. Montgomery went off, and shot away the hand of his loader. Little hopes are entertained of the recovery of the unfortunate sufferer.— Observer. PROPOSITION TO CROSS THE ATLANTIC IN A BALLON.— Mr. Charles Green, the well-known aeronaut, has been for some time making calculations for the construction of a bal loon on a new principle, for the purpose of crossing the At lantic, from New York to England. The machine is to be of gigantic dimensions, and its enterprising 'projector asserts that it could be as safely effected as the journey from London to Nassau in the great balloon the summer before last. Mr. Green says that, had it not been necessary to have the bal loon in Paris by a specified time, he would have proceeded on to Turkey, for which he was in the direct line. Mr. Green is also about to construct a balloon for a number of gentlemen to be used for purely scientific purposes.—Observer. MORE PROOFS OF THE POPULARITY OF THE MELBOURNE GOVERNMENT.—Among the performances of last night (Friday), at Covent-garden Theatre, was the amusing piece, transferred from the Olympic, called The Printer's Devil. It will be recollected, that in the part played by Mr. Keeley the exclamation, " Down with the minister!" occurs. These words were followed last night by a burst of applause which shook the house. We suppose this manifestation will be re garded as a violation of decorum ; but be this as it may, it was very hearty, and all but unanimous.—Morning Post. IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.—The following is a description of a new invention, applicable to locomotive engines, which is considered by a number of scientific men (as railway tra velling is proceeding so rapidly) well calculated to supply a desideratum, and which is likely to prove a great national be nefit, by reducing the expence, and increasing the safety, of internal intercourse :—The advantages of it are—First, the condensing the steam after it escapes front the cylinders, and the water produced thereby returned to the boiler to be wrought over again and again ; by which means the boiler is rendered more durable, being kept perfectly free of incrusta tion or deposit of any'kind ;' and no stoppage is required to take in water; of couse freeing the ,engine of the burden of carrying a supply along with it.—Second, The air that sup ports the combustion of the fuel is considerably heated pre vious to entering the ash-pit ;by which the smoke is com pletely consumed, although fresh coal be Used in the furnace. Consequently a great saving in the consumption of fuel is ef fected. It is pleasant to add, that an experiment has been made with the apparatus, which is exceedingly simple, and found to answer all the purposes intended, and for which a patent is in progress. The inventors are William and Andrew Symington, whose ingenious talents are likely to be of as great benefit to their country as those of their father, the late William Symington, celebrated as the author, and introducer of practical steam navigation.--A correspondent of the Edin burgh Chronicle. FACTS FOR THE ANTI-CORN-LAW AGITATORS.-Agri cultural associations are formed for the avowed purpose of protecting the " agricultural interest" —which means, in the mouths of nineteen-twentie.hs of those who use the term, maintenance of the corn-laws. There are hundreds of these associations in England, and the proceedings at many of their meetings have been published. With very rare exceptions, they are pro-corn-law meetings. Does the Anti-Corn-Law Circular wish to inculcate the gross error that there have been no meetings for the defence of the corn-laws, because, forsooth, none have been advertised as such ? The announce ment frills perfectly , unnecessary ; no doubt other matters were discussed, but the stirring oblect was defence of the corn-laws. To deny this, is to deny that of which every pro vincial newspaper supplies proof. Facts also bear out the statements respecting the wealthy merchants and manufac turers. Take Manchester itself : what proportion of the wealthier classes even there join heartily in the anti-corn-law movement ? who are Sir Geoke Murray's leading suppor ters ? who Mr. Garnett's at Salford ? Turn to Liverpool : are not Lord Sandon and Mr. Cresswell elected by wealthy merchants ? Do any large proportion of the London mer chants aid in the attack upon the land owners' tax? In the majority against Mr. Villiers's motion on the 18th March, we find the representatives of Liverpool, Bristol, Hall, Southampton, Norwich, Newcastle, Sunderland, Belfast, Stockport, Dudley, Worcester, and other places of minor importance. but dependant on commerce for their support. In Manchester, Leeds, Birmingham, and Glasgow, their are large minorities, including many of the richest merchants, manufacturers, and bankers, who always vote for the candi dates attached to the landed interest ; but where do we find the landowners voting for men not pledged to suppert the agricultural interest ?—Spectator. AN ECCENTRIC CHARACTER.—Died, at his residence, Charlton, on the Gth instant, Richard Andrews, aged 63, for merly a watchmaker and jeweller at Dover. The following particulars respecting this eccentric individual have been col lected by our reporter with great care. About twenty-two years since the deceased, thinking he had seen enough of the pains and pleasures of this vain world, endeavoured to rid himself of it by cutting his throat; and which would no doubt have proved effectual, had not his servant ascertained the circumstance, and called in a person named Smith, by whose aid life was preserved. Smith afterwards received a present of a new watch for his exertions on that occasion. The deceased, after his retirement from business, having amassed considerable wealth, always went to bed about four o'clock in the afternoon both in winter and summer. He used generally to take his meals at a cook-shop, except his tea, which he always took a t h om e, the water for which h e used to get from the pump, after belabouring at that engine for about an hour. The reason assigned for this extravagant waste of labour and water was, that he wished to obtain that which was in its real and pure state. He is said to have died worth upwards of £14,000, the greater part of which he has left to his executors ; the remainder is left in legacies to various wealthy individuals but his poor relations have been cut off without a sin g l e shilling. His wife died about 15 years since ; but the deceased expressed a desire just before his death not to be buried in the same vault with her. This long-continued feeling of resentment arose from his wife having left the greater part of her own private property to her own relations, This so offended the old gentleman at the time, that he withheld the , copper plate that he had pre viously had engraved for the purpose of placing on her coffin —neither would he follow her to the grave, but held open the front gate while the corpse passed through, and, after closing it, went back into his house again. Ever since that time he has lived entirely by himself. He would never allow a female to enter his dwelling to do any work, but always scoured out his rooms, made his bed, and performed the household et ceteras in a very workmanlike manner. He always slept in his wearing apparel. He lay ill about six weeks previous to his death, when he called in the aid of his next-door neigh bour, with whom before he had scarcely ever before exchanged a word. He was very patient and sensible during his illness, and appeared very thankful for everything that was done for him. On his death bed he desired that the brass plate on which he had himself engraved " Richard Andrews, Esq.," should be placed on his coffin, observing that it would not moulder away so soon as lead or pewter. He also requested to be buried with his four valuable rings on his fingers, and a new pair of buckskin breeches to be placed under his head, a velvet cap in his right hand, a new shirt studded with silver buttons for a shroud, and to be carefully wrapped up in his grandmother's wedding sheet. After his death there was found in a closet adjoining his bed-room an iron chest, wlich report says is filled with,old gold and silver plate, gold rings, and old coins to a great amount. He had preserved all the tools which he used in his trade, and kept them in good con dition. He was buried at Charlton church, Dover, on Tues day last, followed by his two executors, and Mr. Youden, mason, to whom the d ecoabec l h as l e ft par t o f his Greenwich Gazette, property.— TIDE TABLE.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, Nov. 21. There has been a good business doing during the week, at an ad vance on American descriptions of id to id per lb on last Friday's prices; until to-day, when the market has been dull, and prices may now be quoted at the same ratio as on this day week. The sales are 3 to 4,000 bales of all kinds. Yesterday's business was upwards of 6,000 bales, 2500 American on speculation. LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET. Nov. 19. During the past week the imports of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, from Ireland, Coastways, and from Foreign ports, have been to a considerable extent, and we have experienced a very languid de mand for every article in the trade here and in all our country mar kets and in those of Yorkshire, though at a decline of 3d to 4d per 701bs on Wheat, Id to 2d per 45ibp on Oats, and is to 2s per barrel and sack on Flour and Oatmeal ; in the value of other articles no change can be noted. The alterations in the duties on Grain from Foreign ports, since Friday, are a decrease on Barley, Indian Corn, and Buck Wheat of lod per quarter, and of Is 6d per quarter on Oats and Rye, as anticipates; the recent importers of Wheat and Flour hesitate as to paying the present duties, (though it is likely they may be further Inci eased next Friday) in the expectation of a good demand for Flour for export; all the recent arrivals of Foreign Oats have found eady sales for export at our quotations. - At this day's market there was a good attendance of town and country millers and dealers, but the accounts from the London market, caused some depression here, and sales were made of Wheat, Flour, Oats, and Oatmeal, to a very moderate extent at fully the decline above noted; and new Irish Wheat, owing to its very bad quality, was very unsaleable; for all other articles there was a fair demand at our quotations.
