And even worse than grievous it must have been—and to us it has appeared almost sacrilegious—to hear, as we have often been constrained to hear, the noblest melodies of this or any other land—melodies which will endure when the " brilliant " and flimsy productions of the present day are forgotten things—strains which, in their purity are interwo -ith our earliest recollections—which are entwined with nes and the memories of the great champions of our ed faith, and which have rung through the silence of a night in many a valley and on many a bill of Eng in the olden time, when to have breathed them was to the penalty of persecution unto death :—worse than ous it must have been to every lover of our pure and church psalmody to hear such strains—as we have too i heard them—strippea of their sublime simplicity—mar with foreign ornament—their majestic movements crippled t‘e introduction of paltry and ridiculous interpolations, •erted into tasteless travesties, or, at the best dis al memories of their original and touching solemnity and Jy L and cony beauty remedy for such a state of things, so far at least as the publication of a collection of standard church music can ef fect it, we have presented to us in the work now under notice. -' es of Mr. Hacketts "National Psalmist" we notice id we doubt not that we shall continue to observe k progresses, the restoration of many old favourites to their original chaste simplicity, accompanied by numerous original productions by the most eminent composers, in which the style of our ancient psalmody is preserved. When com pleted, it will contain, within itself, such a body of music as might with propriety and advantage be considered as the standard melodies to be used in all our churches ; and no thing would please us better than to see them generally adopted by the clergy of our own town, as those to be exclusively used instead of the flimsy and distasteful compositions too com monly introduced in the present day. We have authorised collections of hymns and psalms, and why not also authorised music to accompany them ? Why not music which congre gations could understand and become accustomed to, instead of a constant introduction of new compositions which no con- gregation can follow or join in ? The psalmody of our church service has become an essen tial portion of the service itself. Congregational singing is becoming almost universal ; and yet when a churchman en ters any church other than his own, although he finds there the same prayers, the same service throughout, yet in one essential portion of that service, he is utterly bewildered. lie has learnt to join in the psalmody of the particular church to which he belongs, bad perhaps as it may be, and 's compelled either to omit what he feels as a necessary s devotions, or if he make the attempt, it is to mar the effect of the whole, and create that kind of 9m:zing accompaniment which we hear in many churches, where the congregations seem to be singing half a score of 'werent tunes at once, instead of joining in one simple portion of h We make tl: suggestions independently of any commen ts of Mr. Hackett's work, and entreat the attention of ergy to the subject.

Two subjects are considered, " A mother's love," and " A sweet thought for Saturday evening." The article is exquisitely written, and will be read with intense pleasure. " Hoaxing histo ries, No. 2," entitled " A hoax in George the First's reign," we suspect to be a burlesque upon a popular work, recently published, which has taken hold of the public mind : we al lude to "Miss Burney's Letters." If this be the case, the style is capitally imitated. Some notices of the Shaksperean drama, " Shakspere and his commentators," contains much valuable matter. " Mated and checkmated," is an amusing eastern sketch, illustrative of eastern manners At a time like the preient, when the new houses of parliament are springing up into something like substantiality, the article entitled " Doings in fresco" will be read with much atten tion.

The latter is favourably reviewed ; and we may here remark, that ours was one of the first notices that appeared of it ; and all other reviewers " have followed on the same side." Mrs. Adams dramatic poem of Vivia Perpetua is also kindly spoken of. Several other works are brought upon the lapis ; some patted and smoothed over, others scratched and tomahawked.

It has a beautiful embellishment entitled " Emily," from a painting by Parris. It is accompanied by clever de scriptive lines by the late Miss Landon. The usual plates of the ladies' fashions certainly present us with novelty ; we have not seen anything so bizarre as some of the dresses for a long while.

Miss Florence Wil son, the daughter of the editress of the magazine, also en riches it with some graceful stanzas. This is a very superior number, and we recommend it to the notice of our lady friends. Amongst the stories, as above the ordinary run of such things, we may mention " Tales at Ebb and Flow."

LAST.) Our author next considers the question of cost ; and we learn, from his conclussons, that an iroa sailing vessel, of 300 tons, in this point equals an English built twelve years wooden ship ; that iron vessels above that tonnage are rather less expensive than wooden vessels ; and that for " very large" merchant vessels, or ships of war, iron will be found much less expensive than wood. With regard to the draft of water, iron vessels may be built of any registered depth, and " when a very light draft is essential, it may be attained to a greater extent by metal than by wood." Some interesting particulars are furnished of the iron sail ing ship " John Garrow," a vessel which attracted much notice when she arrived at this port from India, in conse quence bf her peculiar ugliness of form, which retarded her sailing when in a wind, and rendered her unusually wild in steering. Mr. Grantham and his partner have since effected great improvements in the form of her bow and stern, which have been re-constructed. The vessel has also been length ened some feet, and strengthened throughout by additional iron ribs, &c. She is now considered a handsome, and will doubtless be a very fast as well as a very roomy vessel. A draft is given of her as she now appears, also half-breadth plans of her before she was altered and as she now is. She bears no appearance of patching, and the result shows " with what facility iron vessels may be altered and strengthened at pleasure, under circumstances that in wooden vessels would render such operations almost impossible." A full description of the "Great Britain," iron steam-ship, now in progress of completion at Bristol, is supplied, and will be perused with interest and curiosity, This immense vessel is 320 feet in length from the figure-head to the taff rail, and her burthen (by the old measurement) is about 3500 tons 1 It i remarked of her, that " her lines are beautiful, and adapted to attain the highest rate of speed." The author next addresses himself to the several obstruc tions to the progress of iron ship-building, commencing with the inaccuracy or variation of the compasses on board of them—a point which he discusses at some length, showing that Professor Airy, the eminent astronomer, who has di rected much attention to the subject, has discovered the true remedy by which the magnetic currents that disturb that de licate instrument may be completely counteracted ; and that it may be readily corrected, and so maintained as entirely to obviate this at first alarming objection, and render the needle as true in an iron as in a wooden vessel. Several interesting facts bearing on the subject are adduced, and a valuable letter is also appended, addressed to the author by the ta lented professor. The supposed liability of iron ships to fouling is noticed ; and it is shown that there is no difficulty in keeping them as clear of shells and weeds as wooden vessels, by occasionally cleaning and coating them. The author suggests a simple but ingenious kind of scraper for cleaning vessels' bottoms, even when afloat and sailing, and its utility end ease in working are demonstrated by a drawing. Under the head of "improvements retarded by prejudice," several instances connected with navigation are brought for ward to show that the public is often stubborn in matters that affect old and Inveterate pre3wateca. Vur inataucc, tho introduction of iron cables met with great opposition from seamen of the old school: subsequently ships carried one iron and one hempen cable : and now no well-found ship has one of the latter material—and it is questionable whether a loss would not be disputed by the underwriters by a vessel not provided with cables of iron The same prejudice was entertained against wire standing - rigg in g an d chain running rigging, though both are now coming much into use, and are found, particularly for steam vessels, to be superior to hemp in strength and lightness as well as in requiring less displace- ment. The peculiar adaptation of iron vessels to steam naviga tion is strongly set forth. In wood steamers it is contended that the machinery and fuel occupy so lar g e a space that little room is left for stowage. The vibration caused by the work ing of the engines tends gradually to unloosen the whole frame and planking. In iron steamers, on the other hand, the whole of the machinery and the hull being of the kindred material, and elasticity, and capable of being so united as to form a firm and unyielding whole, not to be attained by a combination of timber and metal. On this important point he states—" A wooden vessel, when she takes the ground, and, frequently, when she encounters heavy weather, becomes so much altered in shape that, were the engines so attached as to form part and parcel' of the whole, they would be in danger of being broken down, or otherwise injured. Few wooden steamers, I may add, can be placed in the graving dock without first slackening the holding-down bolts of the engines, to, allow the vessel to spread out, lest the framing should be broken. The case is wholly different with iron vessels—in which, if properly built, there is no fear of twist ing or settling. The engineer may, with perfect safety, firmly unite the vessel and the engine." An extract is given from the report of Mr. Holmes, on the steam navigation with India, which appears to be decisive on this point. In the course of some remarks on iron, as the means of extending steam na v i ga tion, it is remarked by our author : " If not injured by some casualty, a strong iron vessel will not require to be put into dock for several years, provided opportunities are occasionally afforded for leaving her dry for a few hours, to clean and coat her bottom. The engines be ing reduced in size and weight ; the speed and stowage much increased ; the consumption of fuel lessened to one-third of the present average,—what part of the globe may not then have its steamers, what sources of employment does not the prospect hold forth to this country, and what immeasurable advantages may not thereby arise to our widely extended co lonies ? When we consider the results of such improvements, we are lost in conjecture of the amazing extent to which our resources may be applied. We have steam vessels now plying regularly to North and South America : we have them in the Pacific, in the Mediterranean, in the Red Sea, and in the In dian Ocean, as far as Calcutta, and even China ; and these are only the main navigable highways , from which numerous small lines may be expected to branch, filling up every inter mediate space, affording a continuous and profitable inter course with countries the most remote, and thus diffusing amongst tribes the most barbarous and benighted, the bles sings of civilised life." Mr. Grantham takes an enlarged view of iron vessels as a " national question," and in this respect the subject pre sents preeminent claims to our attention. The immense cost of one of our largest men-of-war is given on the authority of Mr. Chatfield, of her Majesty's dock-yard, Plymouth. " The Hindostan," seventy-eight gun-ship, cost the country £72,000 in timber and building alone—the value of materials being £60,000, and of labour £12,000. "It would require," says that gentleman, "4200 loads of timber to build a ship of that description, and occupy 70 acres of ground for 80 years for its growth." The average durability of ships of war actively employed is 13 years, and " The Hindostan " took precisely that time in building. Our author calculates from these data, and deducting one-fourth from the quantity of timber required for the lighter scantlings of our merchant shipi, that it would require the constant occupation of 400,000 acres of land to grow the timber for the ships annually built in this country and in our colonies ! Our navy, it is contended, would be benefitted to perhaps even a greater degree than our merchant service by the adoption of iron, and more particularly in very large vessels, as it appears that un limited stren g th ma y be g iven to then; in a ratio increasing with their size. The effect of shot on iron vessels is touched upon, and it is shewn that iron ships will withstand balls projected in an oblique direction with no further injury than a mere indentation of the plates, and that the facility of repairing the holes perforated by point blank proximate shots is much greater than in wooden vessels, while splintering —frequently so fatal in the latter--is alto. gether avoided. The superiority of iron for our steam navy is dwelt upon at some length, and we entirely concur with the author in the following passage, in which he reprehends the government for their apathy in leaving private individuals to work out experiments and improvements in the employ ment of iron. On this point we leave him to speak for himself : It of " It is well known that, in this department, the operations of the government for several years lagged far behind those that have resulted from private enterprise.

There is a lawyer in Philadelphia whose tongue is so oily, that it is now used to lubricate the wheels of the locomotives on the Columbian railroad. There is said to be a county in Virginia so poor that twenty farmers have to join milks to make porridge, which is then so thin that nothing but pigs can see it. • THE FEMALE CAnIN 130t' AGAit.t.—The female cabin boy, who, from a smart pleasant-looking lad, neatly attired, has, by the aid of petticoats, been. metamorposed into a stout, soft-looking, full-featured lass, was this morning arraigned at the bar of the Gorbals Police-otlicc, charged with being a vagrant, having no fixed place of residence, following no law ful employment, improperly assuming male attire, she being a female. She was designated Albert Douglas, alias Had field, alias Lavender Cavendish. The charge being read over by the clerk, who craved twenty-four hours io allow him time to inquire how the law dealt with such cases, also to bring forward witnesses, the Court agreed to remand the prisoner until Monday, when she will be brought up for final exami nation. Before leaving the bar, the sitting magistrate inquired if she had any particular desire as to how she she should be disposed of, or if she had any wish to go to employment ? The prisoner, who speaks with a mild English accent, and who hung her eyes to the ground, and seemed somewhat agitated, said she did not mind how they disposed of her ; she was quite willing to go any where, or to any employment. She was then remanded. We are enabled to give the sub stance of her last confession, which was taken down in writing. She was born in New York : her relatives reside in the Western-road, Halifax. Her father was minister of St. Paul's, New York, and afterwards resided at Halifax, where he died nine years ago; that her reason for going to sea was the bad treatment of a stepmother • that she sailed from Ha lifax as a cabin-boy in a vessel called the Vivian ; arrived at Troop, a town 75 miles below Quebec ; from thence she sailed in a vessel for Falmouth, Cornwall, where she again left and joined another called the Seven Stars, Captain Rice, and ar rived at Bridgewater, Devonshire. She next sailed in the Haffart, Captain Richardson, for Cuba, and arrived back to Troon about nine months ago. She was afterwards engaged herself to a Mr. Ramsay, at the Isle of Man, where she re mained for four months. We believe that means are now taken to ascertain the truth of some parts of her story, the result of which will be forthcoming by the time of her next examination. Whatever be the effect of these inquiries, it is pretty evident that she has passed through not a few adven tures, and seen life undervariousaspects.-- Glasgow Chronicle. A)l)ipplng iinceiltgenrt.

We have again to report a very limite d supply of Beef, and mostly of inferior quality, at our market to-day, but the prices of good Beef a shade higher than last week. Of Mutton and Lamb the supply was larger, though we cannot quote the prices much lower. Beef being so dear country butchers bought mutton and lamb instead, which increased the demand, and kept up the price. Best Beef 7d to Bd, mutton ticl to 7d, accoi ding to quality, and lamb 7d to ad per lb. LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 6. There was a very fair supply of English Wheat to this day's market, which has been taken off at aboutthe same prices as this day week. Some of the recent foreign arrivals of good fresh qua lity aro offering ex-ship, but holders are very firm, in expectation of a lower duty. Nothing passing in bonded, prices nominally the same. There is very little Barley on sale ; grinding qualities are in demand, and Is to 2s per quarter dearer. Beaus fully support late prices, also grey Peas ; but white boiling being very scarce, must be noted is to 2s per quarter dearer. The return shows a good arrival of Oars last week ; in addition to which a few vessels got in this morning from Lincolnshire. The continuance of the present dry weather has caused this article to be held very firmly; but our dealers and consumers being unwilling tp submit to the price de manded, the sales have been only to a moderate extent, at an ad vance of is per quarter on the currency of this day se'nnight. WEDNESDAY, June 8. The market has been again very dull this morning, and every article is nominally at the rates of the last market day. The fine ness of the weather still prevents speculative business, but only inferior samples of Wheat and Oats are parted with, at rather lower rates. The letters from France and the south of Europe describe the crops as suffering from the drought, and rain is very much wanted in every part of the kingdom from which there are parties this morning at Mark Lane.

The gallery was crowded with ladies ; and in the room, near to the platform, were several seats, which were also filled by ladies, amongst whom were Lady Lovatt and family, and other ladies of distinction. The platform was likewise crowded. Amongst the noblemen and gentlemen present were Lord Camoys, Lord Lovatt, the Hon. Mr. Langdale, the Right Rev. Dr. Mostyn, Mr. O'Connell, M.P., Mr. Philip Howard, M.P., Mr. Sergeant Shea, Mr. C. Weld, Mr. Macdonald, Capt. Stapleton, Mr. Lucas, Mr. Aldis, the Rev. Mr. Lisk, and Dr. Magee, &c. The Hon. Mr. LANGDALE was called to the chair. He addressed the meeting, and said that his Holiness the Pope had expressed his sympathy in accordance with the institu tion, and had bestowed upon it his benediction. (Hear.) In one regard the institute had progressed by the addition of branches, but in point of contributions it had not, be was sorry to say, kept pace with its usefulness. It was, there fore, necessary that some remedy should be devised, by which the means of the institute should be improved ; and that remedy would, he was happy to say, be suggested to the meeting that day. (Hear.) Mr. SMITH, the secretary, then read a lengthened report, and concluded by referring to the support given to the insti, tute by Cardinal Acton, who had lately been appointed to his high office by the Pope. Lord CAMOYS moved the adoption of the report, which was agreed to, and after some other routine business had been disposed of, Mr. O'CoNNLI, presented himself to the meeting, and was received with loud and enthusiastic pheering. He was, he said, a moderate man ;—(laughter)-11P W4S easily con tented, and he would prove it. All he wanted was to hear high mass celebrated in Westminster Abbey. (Loud laugh ter, and cries of " hear.") He did want this, and he be lieved the period was near when high mass would be cele brated in Westminster Abbey. (Hear.) And oh I would it not be a glorious day for England to witness such a sight in that abbey, which had originally been erected in order that the sacrifice of the mass might be solemnly celebrated there ? (Hear.) Yes ; it would bp delightful to see the sacred vest ments laid upon the tomb of Edward the Confessor, who was not only celebrated for his piety, but for his being the foun der of I3ritish liberty. (Hear.) He did hope to see these things take place ; and why should he not ? The Spirit of God seemed to be manifesting itself in an especial manner just now in the cause of the Catholic religion. (Cheers.) It seemed as if the period had arrived when the people of Eng land were about to be brought withiu the ope fold of the one great and everlasting Shepherd, (Applause.) Italy did be say this ? Look to the testimony of tire Rev. Pr. Tripi, al ready referred to. (Hear.) He fiaid that the Catholics in America were increasing an hundred fold . but if they were to take the testimony of Miss Martineau and Capt. Marryat, the latter a high tory, all America would very soon become Catholic. (Hear, hear.) Then, again, Portugal had lately been received into the arms of the church, and even in Spain he found the tyrant Espartero, had not been able to carry out his efforts to injure the Catholic church in that country. He had also read in the tory Times, whieb had so lately called the Catholic clergy " surplie'6d itufiaps," and " a !demon priesthood"--(hear, hear)—that 10Dt) of' the'/outlis of Paris had bound themselves to carry put the feasts and faits of the church, and 1800 of them were to be seen on the same day receiving the sacrament at the altar, (Hear, hear.) These were signs of the times that were not to be mistaken ; and if they assisted him that day, he should endeavour to give effect in this country to the spirit that was now so triumplihutly abroad. (Hear, hear.) Mr. O'Connell concluded by mov ing a resolution to the effect, " that every man, woman, or child who shall contribute one shilling a year, should be en titled to he enrolled as associate of the Catholic Institute.'' Lord LOVE TT seqonde.d tke resolution, which was c arried .. . unanimously. The Rev. J. ROBINSON enforced the - necessity imposed upon the affluent and influential, to obtain for their poorer and less fortunate brethren, especially such as were confined in workhouses and priswis, the comforts and the free . ,exer, cise of their religion. In conclusion, he moved the appoint ment of a committee. ANT ELECTION SCENE [This scene is taken from Mr. Lover's spirited account of an Irish contested election, as given in the number of " Handy Andy "—the best part of the work yet published.] Scatterbrain's party, to counteract the energetic move ment of the enemy's voters, and Murphy's activity, got up a mode of interruption seldom made use of, but of which they availed themselves on the pre,seot occasion, It was de termined to put the oath of allegiance to all the Roman Catholics, by which some Loss of time to the Egapite party was effected. This gave rise to odd scenes and answers, occasionally ; some of the fellows did not know what the oath of allegiance meant; some did not know whether there might not be a scruple of conscience against taking it ; others, indignant at what they felt to be an insulting mode of address, on the part of the person who said to them, in a tone savouring of supremacy, " You're a Roman Catholic," would not answer immediately, and gave dogged looks, and sometimes dogged answers ; and it required address on the part of Egan's agents to make them overcome awlifgelings, and expedite the work of voting. At last, the same herculean fellow who gave O'Grady the fierce answer about the blunderbuss tenare 11,2 enjoyed, came up to vote, and fairly bothered the querist with his ready replies, which, purposely, were never to the purpose; the examination ran nearly thus :- 1 " You're a Roman Catholic ?" " Am I ?" said the fellow. " Are you not ?" demanded the agent. " You say I am,". was the answer. ‘: .r tnie e tt. sir, answer—What's your religion ?" .‘ What religion ?" " My religion." " And what's your religion ?" " My mother's religion." " And what was your mother's religion ?" " She tuk whiskey in her tay. " Come, now, I'll find you out, as cunning as you are," said the agent, piqued into an encounter of the wits with this fel low, whose baffling of every question pleased the crowd. '• You bless yourself don't you ?" " When I'm done with you, J think I ought." " What place of worship do you attend ?" " The most convaynient." "But of what persuasion are you ?" " My persuasion is that you won't find it out." " What is your belief ?" " My belief is that yoe're puzzled." " no you confess?" " Not t 4 yog." " Come, now I have yon. Who would you send for if you were likely to die ?" " Docthor Growlin'." " Not for the priest?" " I must first get a messenger." " Confound you're quibbling!—tell me, then, what are your opinions—your conscientious opinions, I mean." " They are the same as my landlord's." And what are your landlord's opinions ?" " Faix, his opinion is, that I won't pay him the last half year's rint •, and I'm of the same opinion myself." A roar of laughter followed this answer, and dumb-foun dered the agent for a time ; but, angered at the successful quibbling of the sturdy and wily fellow before him, he at last declared, with much severity of manner, that he must have a direct reply. " I insist, sir, on your answering, at once, are you a Roman Catholic?" " I am," said the fellow. "And could you not say so at once?" repeated the officer. " You never axed me," returned the other. " I did," said the officer. " Indeed, you didn't. You said I was a great many things, but you never axed me—you wor dhrivin' cross words and eruked questions at me, and I gev you answers to match them, for sure I thought it was manners to cut out my behavor on your own patthern." " Take the oath, sir !" " Where am I to take it to, sir ?" enquired the provoking blackguard. The clerk was desired to " swear him, notice being taken of his impertinent answer " I hope the oath is not weighty , sir, for my conscience is tindher since the last alibi I swore. ' ," without further A GLIMPSE OF NAPOLEON (Prom " The Fortunes of Hector 0' Hallorgp." No. 3.) The worthy sergeant who, like Bardolph, was " white livered and red-faced," with Pistol's qualification of having " a killing tongue and quiet sword," was evidently the lion of the evening; and being a romancer of the first magni tude, no man was better suited to fascinate a company who took delight in listening to deeds of arms. He was gra ciously pleased to reply to the inquiry of a recruit, who had expressed a strong curiosity touching the personal appear ance of Napoleon le grand. Having bolted a dose of alcohol presented to him by a countryman, and deposited the pewter measure on the table, the commander thus modestly con- tinned : " An' so ye would lace to know what Bonev's like? Well, the divil a man ye would meet in a day's walk could tell you that same thing better. He has a regular gunpowder com plexion, a look that would frighten a horse, and whiskers you could hang your hat upon. Father Abraham's in the corner there—and 'pon •my conscience, honest man, ye would be the better of a barber—are but a joke to them." And he pointed to the Jew. Aeci where did you see him ?" inquired a countryman. " Where did I see him ? Whare—but in Agypt," return ed the commander. " Before I was pris'ner five minutes, he sends an aidicamp hot-foot—well, up I comes—for there was no use, you know, resistin'. At first he looked red-pepper at me : Corplar Mulrooney,' says he—and how the dickens h e me d my name out, I niver could larn—' Mulrooney,' says he, for once in ye'r life, tell truth, and shame the devil.— How many thousand strong are you?' Twenty-five thou sand,' says I, strivin to decave him. ' Bad luck to the liars ?' y`Amen,' saysof yer l, s e ju Arrah—come,' says he, don't b e ma ki n ' a Judy Fitz summon'sa lts't givin' the word back to him. but tell th e truth, Mulrooney, and I'll make a man of ye: an' if y e d on 't'—sw'aring an oath that I now disrennimber, b ecause it was in French— ss he. mo the I'll blow the contents of this pistol thro' your scull,' pull ing out one with a barrel like a blunderbuss. Well, I was rather scared ; but, thinks I, there's nothin' like being bould. Fire away,' says L an' put ye'r information in ye'r pocket afterwards ; for it's all ye'll get from me.' Bonypart looked bothered; gogstay,' says he, to the aidicamp, ' that's sliver of the corp'lar. Let him off,' says he ; an if there's a drain of spirits in the bottle, give it to him, the crature, for the day's hot.' Wid that, he pulls out a thirty-shillin' note. ' Divil blister the rap I have more, or ye should have it, says he, shakes m e d ecently by the han ' , and sends me clane back. 'Pon my soul ! Boney's not a bad man, after all," The sergeant's interview with Napoleon had been listened to with great attention ; and at the production of the pistol of blunderbuss calibre, the recruits actually turned pale. The Israelites alone exhibited symptoms of incredulity, but what could be expected from an unbeliever? As to Mark Antony, he laughed outright; however, that was an effect which some of the bst . exploits of the gallant sergeant his auditory, and accordingly he frequently produ:l upon it by unnoticed. The • passed symposium " d easy man, ,, gooin promised to term inate , harmony and peape, al as ! h ow delusory that promise proved CHILD STRIPPING AND EFFECT OF FRIGHT.—About three weeks ago, a young girl belonging to Mr. David Reid, confectioner, Gallowgate, who had then only recently reco. vered from measles, was decoyed into Kent-street by a woman, and stripped of nearly all her clothing. The poor child was taken home by a female servant who knew her parents, but the fright operated so powerfully on her already weakened body, that she grew worse, and lingered in great agony until death put a period to her existence.—Glasow paper. - - Madame Leplus (Jenny Colon), the pretty and celebrated actress, died on Sunday morning, after a tedious illness, at her residence, Rue Neuve des Mathurins. The University of Oxford on Tuesday decided in Convo cation, by a majority of 334 to 219, that no sufficient ground had been shown for repealing the statute of disability passed in 1836 against Dr. Hampden. The greatest case of love is that of a blade of Kentucky, who got into a hollow tree, where he lived a whole week, peeping through a knot hole at his true love, as she sat sew ing bearskin petticoats at her window. A Maine editor says that a pumpkin, somewhere in that state, grew so large that eight men could stand round it, This is something like the man who said he saw a flock of pigeons fly so low, that he could shake a stick at them. A pint of linseed oil, two ounces of bees' wax, two ounces of turpentine, two ounces of good tar, and half an ounce of Burgundy pitch, slowly melted together, and applied to new boots, will render them waterproof, durable, and pliant. Never pay a bill on first presentation ; it would look as if you were ostentatious of honesty. At the second time of presentation you may consider about it, and say, " Call again." Third or fourth time you may be either not at home or out of money ; and should your creditor call a fifth, you may have fair reason to be offended at his pertinacity, and not pay the bill at all. " Never marry a man for wealth," says some newspaper Solon. Nonsense. You might just as well tell children not to eat " sweet things," because they might get sick. Young ladies want pretty dresses, and they want husbands to give thp dresses to them ; so let thp riph men alone. The fair ones will Smile %won them, philorphy or reason forbidding or not. The lucky dog that can jingle dollars is almost om nipotent, at least all the mammas and pappas say so. A curious anecdote is related of Captain Souter, of the 44th regiment, now in India ; when the troops were attacked at Jugdulluck, he tore the Queen's colour from the staff, and wrapped it round his body, to save it, as he hoped, from fall ing into the hands of the enemy; just as he had done so, a ball lodged in his new-made cgrornerbunci, which was thus MiNculouey ipstrunientai in deserving life : Education is the guardian of liberty and the bulwark of morality.

The writer of this sentence is evidently a man of business, and one possessing considerable foresight, as the readers of " conservative papers" are principally the aristocracy.—Shrewsbury Journal. LOCKING UP IN RAILROAD CARRIAGES. — When the train of some south country railroad, in which they lock up their PSSselgers to prevent escape in eases of accidents , arrived at its desthiation the qther day, the keys were not forthcerning, and the impatient passengers were 904,0 Co sit sin the carriages for some time amidst the leers and laughter of the spectators. " This is as bad as Faris," at last exclaimed a witty sufferer. " How so ?" rejoined one of his companions. " Because," he replied, "if the passengers were burnt by accident in France, are we not enduring the same fate in being here thus roasted by the people ?" Last week, one of the servants of the Birmingham and Gl ou cester railway was run down by an engine, which passed over his leg, below the knee, breaking the bone, and severing the leg, with the exception of apiece of flesh. It will hardly be credited, but it is nevertheless true, that the unfortunate fellow with the utmost sang froid, Fompletcd the ampytg /ion 0 the j!esh thro u gh to!th' his ppz4nife tto then took up the detached member and threw it on the form, where he himself crawled, and lay for upWards of an hour, till medical assistance was procured 'from Vershore, and the leg was then amputated above the knee. The poor fellow is likely to recover, SCANDALOUS MINISTERS.—In a debate in the House of Commons in 1626, Sir Benjamin Rudyard, whilst supporting a bill for the better maintenance of the infer ior cler gy , stated ,° that whereas there were many accusations against scandalous ministers, he was bold to tell the house that there were also scandalous livings, which were much the cause of the other ; livings of five pounds, yea, even five marks a-year, and that men of parts would not be muzzled up to such pittances. Though the calling of ministers be never w glorioos Ontwdrfl P'eferty gill bring oanteiapcupOn then', especially among those who measure men by the acre, and weigh them y the pound t which is indee4 the greatest part of men. FOr scandalous ministers, he continue d, there Is no Mall shall be more forward to have them severely punished than I will be, but let us deal with them as God bath dealt with us. God, before he made man, made the world, a handsome place for him to dwell in ; so let us provide them convenient livings, and then if they do amiss, or neglect their duty, punish them in God's name, but till then, scandalous livings cannot but have scandalous ministers. A DugrztsT.—" Web the same sort of feeling," resumed the lady, " seems to have overshadowed another successful duellist. I allude to the well-known'Captain Best, the an tagonist or Lord Camelford. The duel was forced upon him. An abandoned woman promoted it; and Lord Camelford, before he went to the ground, told his second that he was conscious he himself was in the wrong; that Best was a man of honour ; but that he could not bring himself to retract words which he had once used. He fell, at once the ag gressor and the sufferer. But Captain Best was never his own man afterwards. He died at the early age of 48, at a boarding-house called ' The Blanquetg,' near Worcester. Sorrow and remorse 'had done on him the work of years. In I ?it 3 closing hours, he is said to have told those who were in his ponAtlenge, thap tho repolleotinn of that due l and its results 'had embittered every moment of h is life; that the whole scene was as fresh in his memory as if it had happened yes terday; and that there were times when Lord Camelford seemed to stand before him and gaze on him with an earnest ness and tenacity that rendered life a burden. In conse quence of some embarrassments —whence contracted I know not, for he inherited West Indian property to a considerable amount—he was for some time within the rules of the King's Bench. In his domestic arrangements, too, he was unfortu nate, flis pl4FrOge pr oved disastrous t and was dissolved by act of parliament. But he once and again declared that every sorro w would have sat lightly on him could he but have succeeded in wiping the stain of homicide from his brow."— The Bishop's Daughter. - - CAURCH PROPERTY AND THE CLERGY.—Ruclyard ex erted his utmost efforts against the bill for the abolition of e piscopacy, and the spoliation of the property of the deans and chapters. " One thing, Sir, said he, addressing the House of Commons, " doth exceedingly trouble me, it turns me round about, it makes 111 Y whole reasop vertiginous, which is, that so many do believe against the wisdom of all ages, that now there can be no reformation without destruc tion, as every sick body must be presently knocked on the head, as past hope of cure. We are very strict and curious to uphold our own property, and there is a great reason for it ; are the clergy only . a sort of men who have no property at all in that which is called theirs ? I am sure they are Englishmen, they are subjects. If we pull down bishoprics and mill down cathedral churches, in a short time we must be forced to pull dowi? colleges too, for scholars will live and die there as in cells, if there be no considerable preferment to invite them abroad. This is the next way to bring in barbarism, to make the clergy an unlearned contemptible voc ation, not to be desired but by the basest of the people, and then where shall we find men abler to convince an adver sary ? A clergyman ought to have a far greater proportion to live on than any other man of an equal condition ; he is not bred to multiply 11 . ireepences, it becomes him not to live mechanically and sordidly, he must be given to hospitality. 1 do know, myself, a clergyman, no dignitory, whose books have cost him a thousand pounds, which, when he dies, may be worth to his wife and children about two hundred. . . I am as much for reformation, for purging and maintaining religion, as any man whatsoever, but I profess I am not for innovation, demolition, or abolition." ANECDOTE.—When the late celebrated mathematician, Mr. John Chipchase, kept a grammar school in Stockton, he was, amongst other things, remarkably strict as to cleanli ness, and a non-compliance with this ablutionary injunction was sure to incur displeasure, if not punishment. It hap pened once, during a marble season, that one of his scholars had been so long engaged in play that he bad not time to wash his hands, nor did he give it a thought till he had entered the school-room. When our hero's turn came to advance to the dusk, he kept his right hand, which was the dirtiest of the two, in his trousers' pocket, and presented his task with the other. Mr. C. catechized him severely for having the audacity to come before him with such a dirty paw, and in conplusion told him that, without he could pro duce a filthier hand in the school than the one he had pre sented his task with, he should immediately be flogged. The then boy, now a respectable tradesman of Stockton, instantly drew forth his right hand, and on holding it up with all the joyous simplicity of boyhood, the stern countenance of t he master relaxed , nor could he repress a rising smile. A free pardon followed, on condition of his coming to the school with clean hands and face for the future. With this, of course, the trembling culprit promised to comply, and he was never afterwards known to break the promise. VARIOUS PorunaTroNs.—China. Rice is the principal aliment. and tea and water the beverage of the people. There arc no fermented liquors, and fewer animals of any sort than in any other country, the Japanese islands perhaps excepted. On the coast fish is abundant, as well as in the great rivers, upon which last two millions of people are believed to pass their lives in draft of various kinds. The whole interior is known to be in a high state of cultivation, and early and universal marriages are enjoined by the state. The density of the population is admitted b y all t r avellers, and i t has long been known that in China , an y thing that admits ofit is made available for food, and that rats and other vermin are eagerly eaten by the na tives.. If China , where there is no animal food, be contrasted with Russia. where there is little else, it is impossible not to be struck with the di▪ fference of the two countries in population, similar R aices they are. in the Fitive some other essential points.:--lodia• Up on inhabitants depend for subsistenc e ; and the failure in the rice crop occasions a famine, to wh ich, for extent of suffering, no dearth in European countries can be compared. These famines are not unfrequent, and are thou g ht, at times, to have caused the death of hundreds of thousands of persons. The different tribes are often in a state of warfare. The Asiatic cholera, never wholly extinguished, from time to time destroys its millions, yet all th e se causes of diminution have not sufficed to keep down the population of those regions, which, in the local culti vated parts, is wonderfully dense.—lreland. The poverty of the country and the preva lence of distress cause a constant emigration of allwho can find the means to leave it. Ev er y year numbers ship▪ them selves for the United States, or for the British settlements in America. Greater numbers still cross the Irish sea t o th e west of England and Scotland, an d making their way t o th e metropolis and to the great towns, conti t n h u e e teheevrye.asllnabl Ireland m an y Numbers enter the army, and itself, constantly recurring scarcities of the potatoe crop, attended with the malignant fevers which ever a ccompany dearth, thin for a tim e w hole districts. Civ• il wars and oppres sions have also done much to keep down the numbersofthis unfortunate race. Yet has this misera ble p o p ul ation gone on increasing, and made more and more rapid head against all these measures—apparent cause of dimi▪ nution and extermi nation.—France. In the poorer departments the population is considerable. In the rich departments it is low. At these results M. Malte Brun, who is one of population ewr o iters s wh constantly regard a dense and redundant laan a evi dence of the wealth and industry of the country where it exists, without adverting to its causes, is sorely scandalised. He rates the inhabitants of the south of Fran ce f or t h e i r dearth of children, which he terms ' poverty," though he admits that the country is rich and fertile beyond d escr i ption; and not content with this even, is inclined to blame the government ; though as to the m eans by which a government could cure such an evil as this is, he affords no clue.—Dou , bledaes " True Law of Population."

Yesterday's sales amounted to 3500 bales, and to-day they may be fairly estimated at 4000, all to the trade. The fact of large business having been done for four weeks consecutively, and the trade having tempo rarily supplied themselves, may account to a certain degree for the last quiet week, as well as this.

The fresh arrivals from Norfolk and the neighbouring counties comprised about 2,000 Scots and homebreds ; from other parts of England, 230 short horns, Devons, runts, Herefords, &c., and from Aberdeen and Dundee, 170 horned and polled Scots, the remainder being derived from the stall-feeders, &c„ near London. Noswithstanding the attendance of both town and country buyers was not to say large, the Beef trade was considerably renovated, and an advance of quite 2d per Slbs was readily obtained for all descriptions, the best Scots making fully as Gd per slb, and a clearance was speedily made by the salesmen. With Sheep we were fairly supplied, while the Mutton trade was slow, at the currencies obtained on this day se'nnight, and a few of them were turned out unsold. Only 70 Lambs reached us from the Isle of Wight p but from Essex. Kent, Sussex, Surrey, &c., the receipts were extensive, Prime small Lambs sold freely, at full prices, but in other kinds a very limited amount of business was passing. Owing to the supply of Calves being great, the inquiry for them was slow, at barely last week's quotations. The Pork trade ruled dull, hut without any alteration in figures: By the quantities of albs, sinking the offal. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCH ANGE, JUNE 7. Of foreign Wheat, direct from the north and south of Europe, we have to note a further good supply into this port since Tuesday last, with a fair quantity of Pease from the Baltic ; but except a very moderate receipt of Oatmeal from Ireland, the arrivals thence and coastwise, having fallen off considerably of late, are extremely light for to-day. The following are the quantities of Grain, Flour and Oat meal, computed to remain in Liverpool, on the asst May, 1812 : /n Bond.—Wheat, 229,136 qrs, BArley, 12,021 qrs. ; Oats, 11,629 qrs. ; Rye, 294 c i rs. i Beans, 23,712 qrs. ; Pease, 10,186 qrs.; Flour, 111,548 brla. free.—Wheat, 20,00 Q qrs. ; Barley, 3,000 qrs. ; Oats, 12,000 qrs. ,_• Rye, 400 qrs. ; Beans, 16,000 qrs. ; Pease, 4,0.00 qrs. ; Flour, 30,000 brls. and 3,000 sks. ; Oatmeal, 00,000 Ids. Of English Wheat we have little in granary, and very few samples from the neighbouring growers ; the stock also of Irish being now brought into a limited compass, our depen dence rests almost exclusively upon Foreign ; which, although apparently in slow request has been moving gradually into consumption. At our market to-day, however, we have experienced a very limited sale for free Wheats of all descriptions, the ge neral runs of which are ld. to 2 4 41. plloaper than last week ; whilst prime qualitig Qf white Foreign, being scarce, are held at 10s. 94. to his, per 701135. Of English Wheat we have little in granary, and very few samples tram the neighbouring growers ; the stocks also of Irish being now brought into a limited compass, our depend ence rests almost exclusively upon Foreign ; which, although apparently in slow request has been moving gradually into consumption. Since the close of last week, the operations in bond con sist of a cargo of middling EgyptignWheat, at 6s. per 701b5., in store •, one of yellow .Stettin, at Bs. lid. per 701bs. ; one of fine BarlettA, to be delivered here in good order, at 7s. 9d. er Ailbs.i with 500 barrels States Flour, at 295. per barrel. Flour, both free and in bond, having been taken off spa ringly, must be noted 6d. per sack and 6d. per barrel lower, Barley maintained the advance above stated, and Malt the rates of this day se'nnight. Egyptian Beans command rather higher prices ; other kinds retn4i4 %Invaded, Pease rather dearer. Indian Cori steady, Rye, with an improved de mand, has. realised s. to 3s. per quarter above our last quo- tationi, Oats, although not readily saleable, are again dearer, commanding 3d. per 451bs. over the terms of this day week.
