Vottrp. AN ENGLISH COTTAGE Beside a lane, diverging from a wood, Where tall tree-tops o'er-roord the grassy way, And, sloping down to face the sonthern ray, Before the door a well-stock'd garden lay ; Clean-weeded beds by winding walks outspread, Where household roots were ripening day by day, delicious perfume shed, low, arch'd closely overhead fruit-trees bendir All round the place a look of comfort beam'd, True English comfort, homely, calm, and sweet ! The very trees, amid their stillness. seern'd With quiet joy their leafy friends to meet, And on the roses smiled beside their feet ; The shaded lane, the soft and balmy air, The breath of flowers new-waked the morn to greet ; All seem'd so pure so innocent, and fair, That in such scenes as these man never need despair. Along the walls sweet-scented creepers hung, Nail'd here and there, their fragile stems to stay ; And after rain the gtntle breezes flung Such floating fragrance far across the way, As lured the bees from distant fields to stray ; A rustic porch, with straggling woodbine dress'd, And blooming roses made the cottage gay ; While near at hand, the plum-tree's welcome guest, Three summers, undisturb'd, a thrush hath built her nest In two small plots, with border-box hemm'd round, Rare healing plants and choicest pot-herbs grew, The garden balm, 'mid village dames renown'd ; And fragrant thyme, its rich aroma threw O'er mint and white-leaved sage, and bitter rne. Not far from these the straw-thatch'd bee-hive stood, Where in and out, all day incessant flew The labouring bees so bent on public good That idlers none disgraced that busy neighbourhood. PEACE She dwells alone, in amber skies, The Spirit I love best ; And the celestial harmonies Are centered in her breast. Her eye is thought, her breast is song, And light and hope her wings ; And man would think his life too long But for the rest she brings. She leaves her home when morning first Awakes the early lark ; Ere her more dazzling beauties burst Her garments deep and dark ; She comes upon the track of night, To bless the crystal dew, And sheds around a soft delight, That lasts the long day through. And when, at evening, twilight dims The landscape, late so fair, Invisible but blythe she skims Her native fields of air ; She wakes the birds in hedge and wood, She wakes the human soul — She soothes the sad, and cheers the good, All onward to their goal. I love this spirit, free and fair, More than all things beside, For she bespeaks our Maker's care Of this creation wide ; And oft, at midnight, when the sky Is studded all with gold, She lends the soul a harmony That never could be told. PASSAGES FROM AN EDITOR'S NOTE-BOOK (For the Liverpool Standard.) HENRY MELTON CHAPTER 1 Some months ago a communication was placed in my hands from a correspondent, who intimated, in the note by which it was accompanied, the necessity which he was under of requesting for it, in case of its acceptance, the remunera tion usually allowed by the press in similar cases. There was nothing in this circumstance to excite more than a pass ing remark. The communication itself displayed considera ble talent. It was indeed beautiful in thought and language; yet its character and subject were not suited for the columns of a public journal, and it would probably have been returned to the writer with a mere intimation to this effect, but for a certain indefinable interest excited by the almost pleading, though gentlemanly, tone in which its acceptance was pressed upon me, added to some grateful associations, called up in my mind by the name of the writer. Henry Melton ! There were memories of youth, boyhood, nay of childhood sound, as I repeated the words again and again. eight of the everyday realities of life was lifted from my heart; and my spirit bounded back, through the to wander by the green hills and even, in ti The weary g vista of past years, woods and streams of my school-days. Yet this Henry Melto it, this poor expectant of the casual rewards of journalisnit, r*f don told me could not be the —the son of al#vered tutor and pastor—with whom my first thoughts bad identified him. That Henry Melton, ten years ago, was a rosy, happy boy, with bright hopes and bright prospects for his portion. I had heard of him, since that period, as a successful competitor for univer sity honours ; and by this time I doubted not that he had become an ardent labourer in the high and holy calling for which he was destined. An indistinct memory, too, flashed across me that I had heard his name mentioned as the cho sen protector of a fair being, whose sunny girlhood is st ir before my eyes—whose joyous, ringing laughter is still upot it—whose light step still flits past me in my dreams of sppy past : and could the partner of such a one be the lost, wrecked being whom imagination pictured as the writer of the communication before me ? It could not be. I dis missed, therefore, from my mind the feelings which his name had called up ; yet not without indulging those feelings by the dispatch of a kind and encouraging note to him who had unconsciously stirred them, inviting further communica tions, and, at the same time, pointing out the subjects and the style which would be most acceptable. For some months afterwards my correspondent was an occasional contributor ; and, as I was assured, called duly to receive the produce of his labours, which, trifling as it must have been, appeared nevertheless to be an object of impor tance to him. Were it not so, indeed, what man, of the education and talent which he evidently possessed, would have tasked himself—(and it is as hard for talent to stoop as it is for mediocrity to rise)—in the production of such communications as those from time to time furnished by him ? The mere worldly man, as he glances over the co lumns of a daily journal, and laughs at, or admires, a witty paragraph or a noble sentiment, little guesses at the bitter ness of the spirit from which the former may have emanated, or at the aching of the well-nigh broken heart which has been wrung in the effort to give expression to ';he latter. What a lesson—a sorrowful, though instructive lesson — would it furnish, if we could be permitted to trace back the thousand intellectual gems, scattered daily over the face of our periodical literature, to the miserable garret, the obscure coffee-house, or the tavern, from which, amidst penury and sorrow, or, too often, amidst the fumes of dissipation and riot, they have had their birth! In some such distressful circumstances, the writer in question was now toiling for very bread. He did so, however, without intruding his suf ferings upon any ; and, during a period of six months, I cannot call to mind that I was ever favoured with even a glimpse of his person. . . - . I was passing, however, one day through the office occu pied by the cashier of our establishment, by whom the bill of casual contributors are discharged, when a tall gentle manly looking man, in somewhat faded attire, turned awa, from the counter ; and, in the glimpse which I caught of hi features, I thought that I recognised those of some one who was familiar to me. They were wasted and careworn, yet in expression infinitely more intellectual than those which ordinarily distinguish the frequenters of the place where they presented themselves ; and involuntarily the contemplation of them inflicted a chilling sensation upon my heart, from which it was some moments before I re covered. Could it D: the wreck o f him, upon whom , in despit e of the prompt is of calm reflection, my mind had often dwelt, as the being s° singularly brought under my observation ?

CHAPTER 11. roomone A month h a d p asse d over w hen, on entering my morning, amidst a h ea p of the usual communicat ions which occupy the morning hours of the journalist, a letter pr esented itself, in whi c h, upon opening it, I recognised th e hand writing and the signature of Henry Melton. Its conte nts I transcribe as I find them, copied at the time from my note book. " Sru,—l dareowt use those familiar words which my soul yearns to pronounce. I would, indeed, at this moment have shunned your knowledge and crawled on, uncomplaining and unmarked, to my dishonoured grave ; but sickness and the near approach of death have softened my obdurate heart. If you would deign to look upon an unworthy and spirit- 'irokert man—but to that you wi11...! Abali be prepared to-morrow at my apartment—(the —l5, Walnut Tree Walk, Lambeth Yours, dear George, " HENRY MELTON." Strange as was the tone of this note, and wretched as it bespoke the mind of the writer to be, it was with a thrill of satisfaction that I received it; and, at an early hour the fol lowing day, I found myself crossing Westminster Bridge, and threading my way to the place appointed A thousand thoughts of the past—a thousand anticipations of the future crowded upon me as I passed along. The picture of the friend of my boyhood was at one time before me, his glad eyes beaming with health and the buoyancy of a youthful ;—(it was a spirit bright spring morning, and spring brings happy memories into the saddest heart;)—and, at another, I saw him pallid and worn, and a chilling anticipation of ill The bustle of Lambeth Walk, crept over my spirit ever, dissipated my dreaming inclinations ; and, on my ar rival at the house mentioned in the note of poor Melton, I had dismissed alike my diseased fears and hopes, and was prepared to encounter the dreaded or wished for certainty, with something like the stoicism of a man of this world, not unused either to scenes of joy or of sorrow. It was a house of respectable appearance at which I soon found myself, and in a few minutes a damp and tremulous hand had clasped my own, and accents faint and hoarse, yet still sweet and well remembered, had bid me welcome. But when I gazed upon the tearful eyes of the speaker- -, glanced over the shrunken form and the deeply marked and fallen features—when I looked upon that pallid brow and the hair which shaded it, once of clustering glossy brown, but now lank and prematurely grey-1 could have said in my heart this is not he; and perhaps a feeling of dissatisfaction might have been traced upon my features and in my manner, for the poor being before me shrunk beneath my glance, and withdrew his hand with a sigh from the grasp of confiding affection with which he had met mine. I had pained him— how involuntarily heaven, knows ! He had bowed his spirit to the task of meeting me ; he had opened the sealed casket of his withered heart to admit me to a place there, and he fancied that he had been repulsed, and to a spirit like his—a broken spirit, yet still a proud one—who can paint the bit terness which such a fancy must have borne with it ? It was but fancy, however. Another glance assured him that it was so—that a pitying, a shocked, a grieving eye was gazing upon him ; and with a sob, as if the heart from which it issued had burst, he sunk into my arms and became insensible. He had fainted. - • ' -when I — lt was some minutes before my summons for assistance was attended to ; for the little apartment occupied by poor Melton was not of that description which the reader, perhaps, accustomed to the comforts of a family fireside, or to fashion able lodgings, with their ready bells and obsequious attend ants, may picture to himself. The room in question was decently furnished, it is true. It was bed-room and sitting room in one ; and by the occupants of such domiciles—(how many literary men in London have no better!) —attendance of any description is rarely enjoyed. In the present case, however, my friend bad been especially fortunate in the kind of persons in whose house I found him. The landlady, or by whatever other term she might be called, attended promptly, as soon as my cries and stamping reached her ear ; and with her assistance—(and it was:rendered, I speak it for her credit, with almost maternal solicitude)—he was placed in the little sofa bed which occupied one side of the room, and the neces sary stimulants promptly applied. It was long, however, before he recovered ; and, whilst anxiously watching for the return of sensibility, I was enabled, with deep pain, to contemplate the full danger of his state, and, by a few questions to his landlady, to ascertain some thing of his pecuniary condition. That I could relieve ; and at once placed in her hands the means of affording him the comforts which he required. But his health it was too evident was gone beyond recovery. He was wasted to a very shadow, and a devouring fever was in all his limbs ; and as his eye glanced round occasionally, whilst he returned to consciousness, there was a wildness in it, and at times a va cancy of expression, which suggested sad thoughts with respect to his mental state. He became, however, more set tled at length ; and when he recognised me, as I sat by his bedside, he sailed sadly upon me, and grasped my hand once more with an affectionate pressure, motioning, at the same time, to his landlady to retire. " I knew you would come to me, George," he spoke in a faint and broken voice, " I have been ill—very ill ; but now I shall be better—happier at .......... I could not speak, for as I gazed upon his worn and still noble features, a choking sensation paralyzed my tongue ; but I pressed his band in silence. " You will come again, George," he resumed, " when I am better—to-morrow. I am weary now, and, as poor Shelley sings, ' I could lie down like a tired child, And weep away this life of care ;' and yet my tears would not be all of sorrow. lam not yet all deserted and desolate—although I deserve to be so." His features darkened as he spoke, and his eyes resumed the wild gleaming expression which I had noticed during the re eovery from his swoon. I interrupted him. " You must not talk now, my dear friend ; I will come again when you are more settled—when we can talk over the past and arrange for the future." 1%14 " The past !" he broke in with a bitter energy, which, from one so weak, surprised me, " Oh ! you know not what misery is in the thought ! When I think of the past, those maddening lines of Wordsworth are ever rising up into my brain, and every breeze whispers, every object reflects them lon my sight,— But she is in the grave, And, oh ! the difference to me !' Once, George, I thought that was not poetry," he continued, with a strange volubility of manner, " but now how often have I felt it to be so ! The past—yes, we will talk of the past—of the bright and beautiful—of the darkened and wretched hours which are now summed up in that one em phatic word. You shall know all ; but not now. When I am calmer ; when I am stronger." I seized gladly upon the opportunity of interrupting this wild and intensely-painful rambling ; and having repeated my promise to see him on the following day, he turned upon his pillow, and I left him enjoying, apparently, a tranquil sleep. Before leaving the house, I encountered the old lady, and from her I learnt much of the sufferings of my unhappy friend, and much of the occasional recklessness of conduct by which those sufferings had been aggravated, if not caused. This information was communicated, however, with forbear ance, and almost in a pleading spirit; and I felt, therefore, that I might safely leave him to her friendly surveillance. Leaving with her, therefore, in case of any sudden emergency, my address, I turned from the scene with a saddened and a heavy heart. TRIAL OF FRANCIS (From the Morning Herald of Saturday.) John Francis was convicted of high treason and sentenced to death. The evidence detailed on the trial of this guilty I youth was quite conclusive, and the verdict was most righteous. That the convicted traitor did deliberately, sanely, and of malice prepense, attempt the life of her most gracious !Majesty the Queen, was established beyohd all doubt; and that to no power save that of Almighty Go d does the nation owe the preservation of its courageous and beloved Monarch, is certain. Amongst the many blessings poured down by an all-wise and all-good Providence on this highly-favoured land, the failure of this attempted assassination of Queen Victoria is pre-eminent. In the midst of much present chastening for manifold national offences, it ought to be a subject of devout thanksgiving that the nation has escaped so dreadful a calamity as the murder of its Sovereign. Most manifest to mankind is the re-fulfilment of that Divine promise, that He will not for sake those princes who place their trust in Him. Against the verdict of the jury, who tried and convicted , John Francis, not a dissentient syllable can be raised—sub stantially there was no defence. Against the sentence which condemns the convict to a traitor's death, no objection can be taken ; it is but the fulfilment of the law of the land. Against the execution of that sentence we do hesitate to pro test. The life of the Sovereign must be protected ; and if the death of the traitor be absolutely necessary to secure that life, so precious to the country, from future attacks, then to the excution of John Francis must we say amen, and " may the Lord God Almighty have mercy on his soul." But is his death ,absolutely necessary ? Can her Majesty he secured from such treasonable outrages only by the execution of this traitor? These are solemn inquiries; but, solemn as they are, they must be answered by the sworn advisers of the Crown. The responsibility of the Queen's ministers is deep and delicate. Should the mitigation of the sentence be fol lowed by another attempt on the royal person, it would be universally ascribed to present leniency. Should future se curity attend the rigorous excution of the law, it may be doubted whether they would be treated as cause and effect. Whatever be the decision of the Privy Council with respect to this sentence, and whatever it may be, whether for life or death, we shall not doubt its mercy ; for there is mercy to the Queen and her people as well as the traitor. That de cision must be come to on the sole and individual responsi bility of those whose dut y it is to administer the pr:epaga4ves of the Crown. It is a subject-matter for decision, into which the wishes or feelings of the S.overeign mus not be permitted to enter. What those wishes and feelings are none can doubt ; they must be restrained. The Queen's ministers have an awful duty to perform ; for its performance they are responsible to a deeply-interested nation. The simple question is, will the death of the tr e al a to tt r ac p k r s e. ? tend to preserve her Majesty from other trcasonabl SHERIFF'S OFFICE, PRESTON.-INQUISITI CORDAROY AND KENDRICK V.

The winner of the Oaks at Epsom has been named " Our Nell." It is intended to bold a musical festival at Newcastle-upon- Tyne in the course of the approaching autumn. There has been a cardinal of every nation except an Irish one ; perhaps lest he should encroach upon the authority of the pope—in making bulls. BRISTOL AND EXETER RAILWAY.—We understand that it is intended to open the railway to Taunton on Monday, the 27th instant. A letter from Seville states that the distress of the nuns in that place is so great that, in order to keep them from starving, a benefit has been given for them at the theatre. The Northern Whig states that the " French" cambric pocket-handkerchiefs, so generally worn in England, are, nearly all, the produce of Irish looms. The town council of Perth has voted the sum of £5OO to wards the establishment of the Episcopal College proposed to be erected near that place. BUXTON.—We learn that at this delightful watering place it is intended to revive with great splendour the ancient cus tom of font or well dressing, on Midsummer Day, the 24th instant, which is likely to prove very attractive to visiters. - - A subscription for the erection of a monument to Sir Sidney Smith, in the cemetery of Pere La Chaise, is now in progress among the British residents in Paris. Lord Cowley's name stands at the head of the list. In several large dairy establishments in the neighbourhood of Birmingham, the cows are fed and thrive well upon gorse, which is crushed for this purpose into pulp by a small steam engine PRINTING.—CharIes the Second's parliament passed an act, that only twenty printers should practise their art in the kingdom. About six shillings current was paid for one and a half hour's reading in 1685. Loss OF LIFE BY . BATHING. — Last week, 17 persons were drowned while bathing in the river Thames, between London Bridge and Battersea, besides many others below the bridge and in the canals. Since last Sunday, 8 more have perished. —Standard, Wednesday. A terrific hurricane burst upon Brest on the 9th instant, which caused much injury. Heavy claps of thunder were followed by a fall of enormous hailstones, which broke the greater part of the windows in the town. Some persons were killed and many severely wounded. EXTENSIVE FIRE AT BURY.—On Friday morning, about ten o'clock, a fire broke out in the factory of Mr( James Witworth, of Bury, and notwithstanding that it continued little more than an hour, upwards of £2OOO worth of pro perty was destroyed. It is expected, in consequence of the approaching great agricultural meeting at Bristol, at which Prince Albert and several foreign princes will be present, the receipts on the Great Western Railway will exceed £20,000, from the 11th to the 18th of July next. DISCONTINUANCE OF 'WORKING FEMALES IN COAL MINES. — During the past week the colliers in the employ of the Earl of Balcarris, have received notice that the working of females in the colliery will be discontinued as soon as the necessary arrangements can be made for that purpose.— Bolton Chronicle. HONOURS FOR TILE BRAVE.—DOWNING-STREET, JUNE 16, 1841.—The Queen has been graciously pleased to nomi nate and appoint Colonel Sir Robert Henry Sale, Knight Commander of the Most Honourable Military Order of the Bath, serving with the rank of Major-General in Affghanis tan, to be a Knight Grand Cross of the said order. COLLIERS IN LANCASHIRE.—From the statistical state ment of trades, &c., in Lancashire, we learn that there are 330 collieries in that county, employing, when in full work, about 1,400 persons. The yearly consumption of coal by all the steam-engines is estimated at about 3,000,000 tons. THE GARRISON OF GHUZNEE.—" AHNIEDABAD, April 22, 1842.—Intelligence has just arrived that these poor fel lows have been destroyed to a man. There were about 25 officers and 700 men, sick included. The sepoys could not hold their muskets, and the Ghazis referred to in the P.S., perceiving this, closed upon and destroyed them." THE HORSE ATTlLA.—Colonel Anson has, it is said, won by the Derby, £22,000 ; Lord Chesterfield, £12,000. The horse Attila, the winner, was taken by Colonel Anson in ex change for a doubtful debt of £220 or £l4O. His first win ning was £3,000, his second £B,OOO ; so that in all he has returned the lucky possessor £33,000, a profitable enough exchange for a suspicious or bad debt.—British Queen. The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council having di rected that the costs of all the parties who litigated the will of the late Mr. James Ward, of Gloucester, should be paid out of the estate, the proctors attended the court of surro gates on Tuesday week with their bills, as taxed in the regis try, for the purpose of being sworn to them, and of their being signed by the court. The aggregate sum of these costs was £17,535. • - g i proclamation ssue of a new a p s p p e e a c t e , s d o o f n e F o r i i n dly v a i z n . tr o u f nci n the A f g o o r t v h e c r n o n m i i e n n g t half farthings. This promises to be a great convenience, par ticularly to the labouring classes who make their purchases of provisions, &c., in small parcels, and who in consequence are invariably fleeced by the shopkeepers out of the fractional differences resulting from the reckoning where the more wholesale price involves a figure or fractional part of a sum which cannot be equally resolved and represented by any piece of coin now legally current. The last advices from Alexandria afford satisfactory proof of the desire of 'Mehemet Ali to cultivate and promote the interests and conciliate the friendship of this country. In compliance with the wishes of the Oriental Steam Naviga tion Company he has allowed them to place steam-vessels on the canal of Alexandria—a point on which he had been hitherto very tenacious. The Pasha had also given orders for clearing snd otherwise improving the road between Cairo and Suez, for building transit depots, an hotel at Suez, and making other arrangements for facilitating intercourse with India via Egypt. INDIA AND CHINA.—EXTRA MAIL.—The extra mail from Calcutta was to leave Calcutta by the India steamer on the 28th of April, and may be now daily expected, having been out 47 days. The last mail sent by this route left Cal cutta on the 10th of January, and reached this country on the 27th of February, making 48 days ' including some loss of time at the coaling stations. The dates from Calcutta will be about eight days later than by' the last overland mail, and may probably bring some news from that city, and from China. From Bombay or Affghanistan, however, no later accounts can be expected. WESTMINSTER ABBEY.—By the recent report " on the present state of national monuments, made by order of Par liament," it appears that the dean and chapter of Westmin ster Abbey (868) " have given orders for a portion of their ornamental fund to be laid out upon a splendid painted glass window, to be put up immediately in the south transept." The abbey being rather deficient in this species of ornament, it will have a very imposing effect, besides that of giving a seasonable impetus to artists who are endeavouring to effec tually revive this interesting art. TENDER OF SILVER COIN.—By the act 14 Geo. 111., C. 42, sec. 2, it is enacted, " That no tender in the payment of money, made in the silver coin of this realm, of any sum ex ceeding tae sum of twenty-five pounds, at any one time, shall be refuted in law, or allowed to be a legal tender within Great Britain or Ireland, for more than according to its value by weight, after the rate of five shillings and twopence for each ounce of silver; and no person to whom such tender shall be made shall be anyway bound thereby, or obliged to receive the same in payment, in any other manner than as aforesaid ; any law, statute, or usage to the contrary, not withstanding. HAVRE, JUNE 11.—The agent of a Liverpool steam packet company has been here inquiring into the port and harbour dues for steam vessels. The Liverpool company is about to put on two vessels to run between Southampton and this port, in opposition to the South Western and South of Eng land companies. The consequence of the opposition will be that the shares will be reduced considerably. The Liverpool company will also run a vessel between Southampton and the Channel Islands. The intercourse between Havre and Southamptom increases. There is a daily communication, and every vessel carries between 40 and 50 cabin passengers. PROSPECTS OF THE GROUSE SEASON.—Accounts from the moors represent the present as the most favourable sea son for hill game which has been experienced for years. The rainy and stormy autumn and early winter last season, pre vented the usual destruction among the young birds, so that there was an abundant supply of breeders for this year. Eggs were found on the low and sheltered grounds by the middle of April, and upon the higher Grampians by the end of it. The dry and warm weather which followed in May was greatly in favour of the young broods, while the occasional showers which took place during the latter half of the month supplied them at hand with the necessary moisture, the search for which is so often fatal to them. A continuance of the present weather would bring the birds perhaps too rapidly to maturity. At all events, there will certainly be no cheep ers to be found by the 12th of August, and the deficiency of the returns in numbers will be more than compensated by the quality of the game. On the whole, the ensuing grouse sea son is likely to be the finest experienced in the Perthshire Highlands for many years.—Perth Courier. ALARMING FIRE AT COLNE.—On Wednesday morning, last about half-past two o'clock, the cotton spinning mill belonging to Mr. Sagar, of Carry bridge, near Colne, was discovered to be on fire, and so rapid was the dovouring element, that about five o'clock the roof of the old part of the mill fell in. One fire engine was upon the spot soon after three o'clock, another from Barrowford and three from Burnley arrived as soon afterwards as the distance from the respective places would permit, by means of which the steam engine, water-wheel, and sizing house, were preserved entire ; bnt, the upper rooms and roof of the new part of the mill are much injured. The flames were subdued about eight o'clock, and soon afterwards the front wall fell, leav ing the old part of the mill, with the exception of the back wall which is still standing, a complete wreck. At the time of writing this, no information has been obtained how the fire originated. The hands left work at half-past five on the preceding afternoon, and the mill was accidently seen by the proprietor at half-past ten o'clock that evening, and by three other persons was past it is as late as twelve o'clock when all appeared safe. In the forenoon of Wednesday, a box containing, lucifer matches was found about 50 yards beyond the mill, which causes little or no doubt that the fire has been the work of an incendiary. The hands in this and the neighbouring mills, some of their proprietors, two gentle men from Burnley, and numerous other individuals, came forward to assist in staying the progress of the flames with a praiseworthy alacrity highly creditable to themselves. The mill and contents are insured in the Norwich Union Fire Office. A CCIDE NT ON TIIE BRUSSELS RAIL R OAD.—The Moniteur Beige gives the following account of an acc ident which t oo k place on Saturday, on the Brussels Railroad, near Mon Plaisir :—" An unevenly - turned eccentric—a piece of me chanism by which the rails ar e di sp l ace d, to give a p assage from one line of rails to another— cause d the train to get off the rails, but, fortunately , without any person being injured. The engineer perceived what was taking place sufficiently soon to use the cheek and stop the movement, but not in y time to prevent part of the train from going off, and over turning on an embankment, with some damage to the panels. Another locomotive having immediately arrived to their assistance from Brussels, the travellers proceeded o n th e i r journey in such of the carriages as remained on the rail. The engineer, it appears, showed great presence of mind. Th e moment the travellers had departed, measures were taken to clear the road for the other trains, and the carriages which were overturned were thrown over into a meadow be low. It was the sight of these car r i ages w hi c h l ed the travellers in the o ther trains to suppose that the persons who were in them must have been overturned also int o th e d ep th below. The minister of public works and the di rec t or o f the railroad immediately repaired to the spot to examine into the matter." —The Observateur of Brussels states that the train consisted of thirteen carriages, and that although the en g ineer acted with gre at p rompitude, the violence of the shock was sufficiently great to more or less damage the car riages. Some persons received slight contusions, one of which wa s a luxation of the wris t, with a slight cut. Physicians immediately came from Brussels, and paid every attention to such travellers as complained.—The Independant states that the person wounded was one of the men employed on the railroad, and adds, that a lady received a severe bruise on the head. The same paper mentions that another accident oc curred the day after from a similar cause. The train from Malines had arrived at the stations of the Rue Neuve and the Allee Verte, when the eccentric broke. The train im mediately got off the rail, but was stopped almost imme diately. The tender was damaged, but no person was hurt. The service was suspended for two hours. ITATeum BY STEAM.--A person, employed on this Tor. point Steam Ferry Bridge, by way of experiment, placed 13 ducks' eggs, embedded in sawdust, upon the crown of the boiler, anxiously watching them and sprinkling them daily with warm water : after remaining the usual time of incuba tion, 13 lively young ducklings burst their shells and started into existence, and are now in the possession of Mr. Cowley, of Torpoint.—Devonport Independent. TITHE CAMPAIGN IN IRELAND.—On Saturday orders were made by the Master of the Rolls for sums varying from £2BO to £2O, against upwards of 200 individuals—some of them great friends of the church—while the burden rested exclusively on the people. Among the present defatilters are Mr. Garrett Standish Barry, the late member for Cork ; Sir Thomas Deane, Sir George Gold, Mr. L. Langton, of Limerick, and a host of others equally respectable, both in circumstances and rank, in the dioceses of Cloyne, Cashel, IC ----- Cork, Ross, Limerick, Ossory, &c. MILITARY WEAR AND TEAR.—The 66th, at present quar tered in Glasgow barracks, was one of the regiments sent out to St. Helena in charge of the Emperor Napoleon, and which remained there until his death. It was three Grena diers of this regiment, with an equal number of those of the 20th, that carried the " immortal hero of a thousand fights" to his tomb. So rapid is the wear and tear of the army, that there remain now in the 66th only one captain, one serjeant, one corporal, and one drummer, who were present at the above memorable event; though only one year previous the corps consisted of 1200 rank and file, with its due propor tion of commissioned and non-commissioned officers.— Paisley Advertiser. IMPORTANT TO TIM DER MERCANTS.—The commissioners of customs have, with reference to the contemplated altera tion in the timber duties, issued an order to their collectors and controllers at ports where regular bonding timber yards and ponds have not already been provided, directing them to acquaint the merchants engaged in that trade, that they are ready to receive applications as to the temporary arrange ments for bonding colonial timber and other wood goods, imported, to the 10th October next. This will enable merchants to import cargoes previously, and hold them in bond subject to the low duty, if not taken out for home use before the proposed tariff becomes low. THE MANCHESTER AND LEEDS EXTENSION LINE. — We understand that the workmen in the employ of the Man chester and Leeds Railway Company have already broken ground in York-street, Cheetham, in preparation for exca vating the ground for the line, which is to pass at a level of 16 feet beneath the Cheetham-taken. A number of the c ottage tenants in the property by the company along the line from Collyhurst-lane to Red Bank, and in the neigh bourhoods of St. George's-road and Scotland Bridge, have received notices to quit ; many of the weekly tenants have already left, and the cottages have been pulled down ; and with the others the company are making arrangements to quit as early as possible. All is bustle in the neighbourhood, and the preparations for commencing the works are being made with all expedition. TRUE SOURCE OF PARLIAMENTARY CORRUPTION. — Why do candidates bribe electors ?—Because electors will consent to take bribes ! Why will electors censent to take bribes ?—Because they are dishonest and corrupt ! Why are they dishonest and corrupt I—Because they are not under the influence of Christian principles ! A Christian man would not accept of a bribe—and why ? Because, first, the law of the land declares it illegal to do so ; and a Christian man obeys the law. Secondly, because he who accepts a bribe commits perjury •, and a Christian man would not take a false oath. And thirdly, because he who accepts a bribe from a candidate for parliamentary power and honour is de void of patriotism, since, instead of sending honest men to parliament, he helps to send knaves. But men are not Christians, and therefore bribery cannot be put down.—The Churchman. THE INCOME TAX.—Now that the Income Tax bill has passed the House of Commons, the public must be prepared for its vigorous and prompt execution. It transpired in the moneyed circles of London a few days since that the clerks at the Bank of England are busily engaged in making the cal culations for such reductions as will have to be made, under the act, from the dividends payable in next month. As the present act dates from the sth of April last, there will be, it is presumed, a tax of half a year, or threepence-halfpenny in the pound on the July payments, where the total income ex ceeds £l5O per annum. Such is the quantity of business which is created at the bank under this new arrangement, that most of the clerks, it is expected, will be deprived of the summer holidays which they have enjoyed heretofore. A DARING NAVIGATOR.—The Semaphore of Marseilles gives an account of the arrival in that port of a bold and inge nious sailor, who has constructed a boat formed to fit his own body, when laid at full length, in which he traverses the sea with a swiftness and security rivalling that of fishes. His head and arms alone appear from without, and with the latter, holding a pair of oars, he impels himself along. Pro visions are stowed in recesses of the boat, and thus he made vayages from Toulon to Nice and Leghorn, coming to Mar seilles by the islands of Hyeres. On arriving in port he complied with all the prescribed regulations, entering his own name, Malbec, and that of his vessel, and then darted across the harbour like an arrow. On being examined when on shore, the wonderful vessel was found to be a most perfect piece of mechanism. It is furnished with a small pump, similar to those used in wine and beer-houses for drawing the liquor from the casks in the cellar, and by means of which any water the boat may make can be easily discharged. Having been deprived of his left leg, M. Malbec has con verted its wooden substitute into a mast, upon which he occasionally raises a sail suited for his light bark, and which he can trim with ease, according to the wind and the course he wishes to steer. M. Malbec's visit to Marseilles is said to be for the purpose of having a vessel on his plan, con structed of cast iron, with various improvements, among which are to be hollow masts, admitting hair into the body of the boat, so that either in foul weather or when-requiring sleep, he may lay down on the mattress at the bottom, close the hatchway and apertures for his head and arms, without fear of being suffocated. He has given his vessel the appro priate name of the Duck.—French paper. GROUSE.—The reports from our correspondents in Scot land and in the vicinity of the Yorkshire Moors, are of the most cheering character. They all concur in stating that grouse will be found this season in more plenty than has been the case for several years past. This they attribute to the favourableness of the weather during the period of in cubation, which was neither too hot nor too wet ; either of which extremes generally proves fatal to two-thirds of the young during that process. Poults are getting strong on the wing, and out of danger from heavy rain, by which num bers, when very young and weak, perish. Partridges and pheasants are likewise very forward, and promise more than an average number. Some localities during the last few years yielded so little game that many of our shooting friends expressed their intentions of declining the sport altogether, but we apprehend that their resolves will speedily be broken on hearing such gratifying intelligence as we now communicate. Don, Juno, Fan, and Sancho, will be put into the " breakers, " hands to " make." and " train" ; gunsmiths will be busy repairing and " putting in order" fowling.pieces, shot belts, powder-flasks, and other paraph ernalia connected with the sport will be also in request ; and the sportsmen himself will hail that auspicious day the 12th of August, with what rapturous delight which none but a true sportsman and son of the hill can revel in. The Ist of September undoubtedly franks high in the estimation of those who never had the pleasure of bringing down the birds on the morning of the " Twelfth," or by those who cannot bear the fatigue of climbing, the hills or " trashing" through the heather ; but in our opinion it is no more to be compared to the enthusiasm which always accompanies grouse shoot ing, than hare hunting on foot is to that of fox hunting with a field well mounted.—Perth paper.

Prime Carlow and Kilkenny has been sold at 70s to 80s. ; and such is the capricious temper of the trade at the present moment, that we should not be surprised to hear of much less money being submitted to. Nothing at all doing in the Provision market. Bacon continues to he an object of fair demand, and our last quotations are fully supported. MANCHESTER CORN MARKET. JUNE 18. Another week o! dry, hot weather has somewhat increased the inquiry for Beans and Pease both free and in bond, and on the latter an advance of Is to 2s per quarter has been realised. With this exception the trade has been flat ; the business done being in a retail way, for the supply of local consumption, at prices rather declining from those of our last report. At this dayts market there is a scanty show of English Wheat, and good samples support the value of our last, as also do select qualities of foreign; but any thing under this Standard may be brought on rather lower terms, Flour meets a limited sale; for best English we do not alter our quotations ; States and Canadian are lid per barrel cheaper. Price of Oats and Oatmeal are merely nominal, and there Is scarce an inquiry for either. Upon the former, however, an abatement of I d per bushel, and on the latter 6d to Is per load would be submitted to. Beans and Pease steady at fully last week's rates. Malt slow of sale, but firm in value. - LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 17. The demand to-day has been very moderate, not exceedin 3000 bales. The sales of the week amount to 20,890 bales, c which 3200 are for export, and 6000 to speculators, leavin only about 12,000 for the trade, whose purchases are confine to their immediate wants. Prices of the lower classes abot id dearer in the fortnight ; other descriptions without change COTTON MARKET, JUNE 20. It is almost impossible to deseribe the paralysed state of trade. Our Cotton Market opened this morning with a very moderate in quiry from consumers; a few exporters were also in the market, and we estimate the amount of bnsiness at 3,500 bales, chiefly in American descriptions; 500 to export prices remain steady, and much on a par with what was doing a fortnight since.

Ilona Clarendon Rooms, I Ditto, 2 Ditto, 12 COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT The inquiry from the trade has been limited, but as speculators and exporters have bOught rather freely, the total sales have been to a fair extent. The accounts from Manchester, being of a more unfavourable nature than was anticipated, have caused a heaviness in the market, and prices of the middling and inferior descriptions of American are per lb lower, whilst all other kinds remain with out alteration. 5,500 American have been taken on speculation, and 3,200 American and 360 Surat for export. • ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the 10th to the 16th instant. inclusive Prices paid iv MI , lin the week.,ThisWk this year SALES OP THE WEEK 160 Sea Island B/ la, 24 30 Stained 4860 Bowed Georgia 5140 fMobile 1 Alabama and Tennessee 3-if —4/ 1989 7450 i New Orleans f Pernambuco & Paraiba 6 / 7i " 1 Aricati and Ceara 140 Bahia and Maceio 380 Maranham Sawginned ' Minas Para Demerara, Surinam, &c. • 200 Egyptian Barbados 260 Peruvian Bahama 50 Laguayra 20 Common West India, &c Carthagena Smyrna Manilla 2040 I Surat ..

Except on Colonial Beans, reduced to Is. 6d. per quarter, the import duties remain wholly the same as last week. During the interval from Tuesday until to-day, the trans actions in any kind of free produce have been unimportant, and at prices generally assimilating with those previously noted. In the bonded market, Egyptian Beans evidently excited numerous inquiries, but holders firmly requiring 245. per quarter, little or no actual business resulted ; Wheat and other articles in this branch of the trade having been almost entirely neglected. The arrivals into this port, coastwise and from Ireland, continue to be extremely light ;. whilst from the North and South of Europe, we have again to notice a good supply of Wheat, as stated underneath, but no other Grain; and of Flour, only 1,000 barrels thence since Tuesday. Having scarcely any country buyers at this day's market, and our local millers showing a decided reluctance to pur chase anything beyond their immediate wants, free Wheats of all descriptions were in very moderate request, and, in several instances, rather lower terms were accepted : at the same time, bonded Wheats continued to meet little or no attention under which circumstance our quotations remain nominally unaltered. Of States Flour, under lock, about 1,200 barrels have been sold at 28s. 6d. ; and though little duty paid has been disposed of to day, late prices were sustained. In Barley, Malt, and free Beans, we have no change to note ; and Egyptian Beans, in bond, being still held at the advance above stated, seems to preclude any sales at present. Of Pease, however, under lock, a few hundred quarters have been taken this morning at an improvement of ls. per quarter. In the absence of country dealers, and having no renewed demand for Ireland, scarcely any sales of either Oats of Oatmeal have been effected to-day, and such may be con. sidered the turn cheaper.
