I. pottrp. THE CHRISTIAN WARFARE AND TRIUMPH, There is a warfare man is doomed to wage 'Gainst direful foes,—a multitudinous host, Malignant, subtle, fierce, implacable, 'Gainst odds, how fearful ! principalities, And heaven-born powers, in number numberless, And in their nature, and the scale of being, Far, far above the earth-born creature, man: And he, their chief, all but omnipotent, And seems übiquitous, —roaming the earth Invisible, on murderous deeds intent, Like to a lion greedy of his prey, Or like a ravening wolf, that darkly prowls With stealthy pace, or leaps into the fold, Or tiger fell, that sports with agony, Cruel as death, insatiate as the grave, • In whom all fiendish hell-born passions rage, But most revenge and hate, the twin-born brood Of mad despair, and deathless as their sire. Yet man, tho' fallen (and therefore weak and frail) Fallen, like his foes too, from his first estate, And with innumerous evils compassed round, And inbred foes as numerous,—traitors foul,— Fall'n, yet renewed with more than mortal strength, An earthen vessel filled with power divine, — A mortal strengthened with the strength of God, — He fights the goodly fight of faith, till death, Comes off victorious, more than conqueror O'er all his enemies,—then lays aside His helmet, shield, and spear (bis warfare o'er) His borrowed panoply of heavenly proof, And, wearied out with conflict, sighs for rest, Whilst Death, a kind and friendly servitor, With gentle hand strips off his mortal weeds, That be may sleep in peace a little while, In Hades' dark domain, until the dawn Of that blest day, when, at the trumpet's sound, Whose blast shall wake the dead, be shall awake And rise again, renewed with god-like strength, And put on robes of immortality, And on his head a pure celestial crown, A royal diadem ; the victor's prize ; And hail the prophet's glorious boast fulfilled, " 0 grave 1 where is thy victory? 0 death! Where is thy sting ?" and be henceforth, for aye, A king and priest of God.—the high compeer Of holy angels, if not more exalt, As heir of God, joint-heir with Christ, his Lord, To share his glorious reign, —his mundane reign Of righteousness, and peace, and joy, and love : When God, Immanuel, shall dwell with man, And man with God,—the blest inhabitant Of that fair city, new Jerusalem, Doomed to descend from God,—from heaven to earth, To earth renewed, and paradise restored, — A kingdom incorruptible and pure, That fadeth not away,—blest heritage ! Prepared before the world's foundation was, Won from the foul usurper's tyrant thrall By Him, ordained to bruise the serpent's head, The woman's seed, Messiah, David's son, And David's Lord ; and who, on David's throne, Shall reign the King of kings, and Lord of bolds, Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God, The Prince of Peace, whose blest millennial reign Shall be the foretaste, earnest, pledge, and seal, Of man's eternal heritage,—the dawn That ushers in the Everlasting age Of heavenly joy, and beatific bliss ; When (all his enemies subdued) the Son Shall render up the kingdom unto God, That God the Father may be all in all. Douglas, May 14, 1842. G. H. \V. A MOTHER'S EVENING THOUGHTS. BY MRS. SIGOiJRNEY. 0, homefelt joys, so dear, so sweet, My clear wood fire beside, My baby creeping at my feet, Who oft with glance of pride Looks back elate and pleased to show How fast his tiny limbs can go. And closely seated by my side, My little daughter fair, Whose doll upon her knee doth ride, Essays a matron's care ; While many a lesson, half severe, With kisses mixed, must Dolly hear. There lie my volumes closed and still, Those chosen friends of old ; My pen, regardless of my will, Lurks in its bronzed hold ; High joys they gave ; but not so dear As those that gild my fireside here. Where harp and viol carol sweet, • 'Mid youth's unfolding hours, And gladness wings the dancer's feet, That seem to tread on flowers, I've shared the cup ; it sparkled clear ; 'Twas foam ; the precious draught is here. I've trod the lofty halls, where dwell The noblest of our land ; And met, though humble was my cell, Warm smile and greeting hand ; Yet doth she feel a thrill more blest, Who lulls her infant on her breast. Strong words of praise, such words as gird To high ambition's deed, The impulse of my mind have stirred, Though still unearned their weed ; But what of these? they fleet away, Like mist before affection's ray. Though many a priceless gem of bliss Hath made my pathway fair, Yet I have known no joy like this, A mother's nursing care, To mark, when stars of midnight shine, My infant's bright eye fixed on mine. Might woman win earth's richest rose, Yet miss that wild-flower zest, Which by the lowly cradle grows, 'Twere but a loss at best ! Pass on, 0 world, in all thy pride, l've made my choice, and here abide. Even she, who shines with beauty's ray, By fashion's throng carest, If from that pomp she turn away, And build her shelter'd nest, And hoard the jewels of the heart, Like Mary finds the better part. —American Paper. LITERARY NOTICES. Abbotsford Edition of Waverley, Nos. 8 and 9. Robert Cadell, Edinburgh ; Holliston and Stoneman, London. We have received Nos. 8 and 9 of this splendidly illus trated edition, and can conscientiously state that it improves as the publication progresses. The present numbers contain a portion of Guy Mannering ; and, in addition to the beau tiful steel engravings which accompany each number, the woodcuts in each are of the highest class of excellence. In particular we may mention the portraitures of Dominic Sampson, Meg Merrilies, and Dirk Hatteraick, which bring these well-known characters before us just as we have pic tured them in our mind's eye, or, rather, as the great magi cian has painted them for us. The golfing scene brings to our mind for the first time a vivid picture of an amusement which we have hitherto only imagined. The gem, however, is contained in the last number, and consists of the inimitable representation of Counsellor Pleydell seated at his game of high jinks, surrounded by his learned subjects, with the im mortal Dandie Dinmont, in boots, spurs, whip and all, a delighted spectator of the wondrous scene. The figure of the Liddlesdale Yeoman alone is worth the price of the number. The New Statistical Account of Scotland. Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh and London. We received No. XXXVIII. of this excellent work, con taining the conclusion of Banff, and part of the county of Aberdeen. The information of every parish, its topography, natural productions, agricultural and other resources ; the number, customs, and condition of its inhabitants, and its civil history, its eminqnt men, its objects of antiquity or in terest, and its capabilities of improvement, forms a body of information that "cannot but be highly valuable to all who desire to acquaint themselves with the characteristics of " the Land of Cakes." The articles are written by gentle men (chiefly clergymen) of education, and evident experience . and research in their several localities, and the arrangement under distinct heads is all that can be wished for reference ; while at the same time the work so abounds with interesting historical lore, that it may be taken up at any time and perused with amusement as well as instruction. Now that a complete and minutely defined survey, on a large scale, of Great Britain in counties is in progress, at the instance of the governme n t, form a s citable a ccompaniment this work becomes more valuable, as it will to the splendid and accurate be laid before the public. As a s m p a e p c s im w e h n ic Olf l:, geerne long, style, we quote promiscuously the following passage relative to the life and character of the late am iable Earl of pin Ler, one of the most distinguished no bl e men of Banffshi re: " There have been few ento whom his country has been so deeply indebted , consideredd in the character of a peaceful p a triot, as to James sixth ol i Findlater and third Earl of Seafield, born 1714. To th at , of s i tinguished individual. ap pertained the exclusive merit, n i troducing into the north of Scotland those improvements agriculture, manufac tures, and all kinds of useful indu n st in the space of a few years, raised his country fro m ' which, that of the most barism to a degree of civilization, equal a t ,, tate of semi-bar improved districts of the south. His lords hip "er t itn e ently qua excellent education by foreign travel, which eminently completed an in e l d i one of lified him for the distinguished part he was d the field of philanthropy. In 1754, he w as appnintit to act in the commissioners of Customs in Scotland ; and constituted one of the lords of police. He was one €6 of was the trustees for the improvem ent of fisheries and manu tactur e s,e and for the management of the forfeited estates in Scotland • and attended to th e business of these boards with the most exemplary zeal and assiduity. Enthusiastic in his desire to benefit his native land, the prime object of his ambition, be conversed much with and greatly honoured men of letters and persons of ingenuity in every profession, always endea vouring to convert whatever knowledg e he by such means acquired, to the improvement of his country. In these truly patriotic pursuits, he succeeded to an extent altogether un paralleled in the annals of industrial impro vements ; and bis name is still a household word over the north of Scotland, being regarded as that of a man who, in his day and genera tion, proved himself one of the most substantial benefactors of his species. His lordship died at Cullin House , 3d No vember, 1770, in the fifty-sixth year of his age." DREADFUL DEATH FROM SWALLOWING VITRIOLIC ACID.—On Friday one of the mechanics employed in the moulding department of Woolwich Dockyard died in the Marine Hospital, in consequence of the extensive internal injuries he received by swallowing a large quantity of vitri olic acid. The deceased, it appears, was at work in the workshops of the moulding department, and, becoming thirsty, he took up a mug containing that destructive liquid, conceiving it to be spring water, and took a draught, which burnt his mouth and throat in a dreadful manner. He was conveyed to the hospital, where every attention was paid, but after lingering for nearly 48 hours he expired, having suffered the greatest agonies. It appears the acid is an arti cle frequently required in the work , The de ceas ed, whose name was Edward Nicholson, was a young man only 25 years of age, and bad but recently been married.—London paper. MISCELLANEOUS, Mr. Hargreaves, of Leeds, has given a munificent Bona' tion of £lOOO towards liquidating the debt of the Wesleyan Missionary Society.—Leeds Times. It is stated as a fact, that the first observation the Duke of Wellington made, when fairly put on motion on the Liver pool and Manchester Railway, at its first opening, was to this effect :—" This will be most efficient for the conveyance of troops." The Berkshire Chronicle states, that at a vestry meeting of the parish of Tilehurst, held on Thursday week, it was re solved to raise the assessment of the Great Western Railway from £3OO to about £lOOO per mile. There are two miles of the line in that parish. - - - Mr. Pitt, on one occasion when some measures of his were thought by the higher aristocracy to be prejudicial to their interest, as Sir Robert Peel's are now viewed by certain members of that body, is reported to have said, that he con sidered the first duty of government was to provide an ample supply of food for the people. LAMENTABLE ACCIDENT.—About six o'clock on Thursday evening three young men from Arundel left the harbour at Littlehampton, in a small galley, with the intention of going for a night's cruise as far as the Owers Light, off Bognor, or to the Isle of Wight, promising to write to their friends in the event of their reaching the island. Sunday arriving without any intelligence from the party, serious apprehensions were entertained for their safety, more especially as a sudden squall, resembling a whirlwind, and lasting only a few mi nutes, had been felt along the coast, accompanied by a change of the wind from south-east to south-west. A few minutes after the change the boat was discovered by the crew of the Owers, half a mile distant, but it was not afterwards seen. Subsequently, however, the boat's rudder, stern-sheets, and oars, a basket, and hat, identified as belonging to the party, were picked up, and the conclusion is that the boat was cap sized, and the three young men met with a watery grave. The unfortunate gentlemen were a Mr. Carter, of a respec table family in Norfolk, articled to Mr. Duke, solicitor, of Arundel • Mr. Edward Constable, aged 20, son of a brewer at Arundel ; and a young man named Clear, also connected with Constable's brewery. WINDSOR CASTLE. - PRECAUTIONS TO PREVENT THE INTRUSION OF STRANGERS.—Since the late mysterious en trance effected into the. interior of Windsor Castle, by the man Quested, on the night of Monday week, such precau tions have been determined upon and carried into effect as will effectually prevent, for the future, the possibility of the privacy of the Sovereign being invaded by the intrusion of unknown and suspicious characters. The police, who are stationed at the only entrance which it is possible for a stranger to pass through, and who formerly went on for night duty at eleven o'clock, and left at six in the morning, now commence their duties several hours earlier in the even ing and remain until eight o'clock the next morning, from which hour the usual porters upon the Royal establishment are in constant attendance throughout the day, and until late in the evening. It is to be hoped that the great vigilance now exercised by the respective officials connected with the department in which they are engaged, will be the means of frustrating any further attempts (should they be made) to intrude into the interior of the Castle to the great annoyance of every one concerned with the Royal Household. AWFUL THUNDER-STORM.—COUNTY OF LOUTH. — On . Friday last, at six o'clock, as the family of Mr. Piers Murphy, himself, his mother, sister, and three children, one of whom was Miss Rose Murphy, of Newry, at present on a visit there, were sitting at tea in a small parlour at the western end of his house, the neighbourhood was visited with a vio lent thunder-storm ; a flash or ball of tire descended through the chimney, splitting a great part of the gable wall and chimney, breaking through the bed-room, and literally ex ploding in the apartment where the family were assembled— breaking two large framed pictures, shivering the chimney piece to atoms, damaging the ceiling and room plastering in different places, perforating the clock-case in three different parts, and, most singular, breaking the cups and saucers on the table were the parties were sitting. The room was bril liantly lighted with flame—breaking the window-frames, glass, &c., into atoms, and wreaking its awful fury on the individuals present. The parties endeavoured to make their escape, but Mr. Murphy (who, with his mother, had been previously struck and scorched most dreadfully), having recollected that one of,the children present was lying on the floor, returned, and found it to be his cousin, Miss Murphy, who had been struck by a piece of the shattered chimney piece, and lay prostrate. He brought her to the open air, when, after the lapse of fifteen minutes, she partially re covered, and is now doing well. Nothing but the hand of Divine Providence can account for the miraculous escape of the inmates, and is attributed (in the words of many poor and starving persons) to the charitable generosity of Miss Murphy. Two cows and a horse have been killed within a few perches of Mr. Murphy's. A woman named Byrne is lying dangerously ill from the same effect. A dog belonging to Mr. Owen Byrne, of Lanett, was also killed on the spot. —Newry Examiner. AwFVL VISITATION.—THE CROPS.-011 Friday, the 19th instant, the neighbourhood of the Island for about three miles round was visited by the most dreadful thunder-storm ever recollected by the oldest inhabitant. About two o'clock in the afternoon, the fine blue sky, which wore such a pleas ing aspect up to that moment, suddenly became dark and cloudy —so dark that one could scarcely discern his own hand. The most terrific peals of thunder, accompanied by vivid flashes of lightning and tremendous hailstones, ensued, the latter as large as pigeons' eggs. This was followed by a waterspout, as if the cataracts of heaven had opened, which lasted for two hours and a half, leaving a flood that carried away all before it. The destruction committed on the corn crops fit for the sickle is really heartrending ; the fine, fields of corn, particularly oats, are literally thrashed out of the ear. Even green oats did not escape. There was one field of oats of fifty acres, belonging to Mr. Bolton, which was fit to cut, and by far more than half of which is lost; indeed, every field where the shower fell has suffered incalculably. From inquiries we have made since the above particulars reached us, we are happy to say that no injury has been sus tained by the crops except in the neighbourhood of the Island ; but it is melancholy to reflect on the , privations which this awful visitation must impose on the poorer class of sufferers in that district. The accounts from all other parts of the country are of the most cheering character.— Wexford Independent. PRESENT TO HIS ROYAL HIGHNESS PRINCE ALBERT. —A very beautiful Arabian mare (the only one which has been permitted to leave the country for many years past, and which arrived in England a few days since) has just been presented to His Royal Highness Prince Albert, at Windsor, from the English Consul at Morocco. The mare, which for symmetry may almost be said to be unequalled, is of a dark gray colour, standing 15 hands high, and not more than two years old, and of the purest Arab blood. It reached Windsor by the Great Western Railway from town a day or two since, and immediately upon its arrival it was taken to the quad rangle, where it was seen by the Queen and the Prince, and several of the members of the Royal household , by whom it was greatly admired. Its mane has been cut previously to its leaving Morocco (a plan adopted in that country with respect to all mares bred there), and the only " drawback " to its beauty and general appearance is that of a hog-mane ," but it is expected that in a few months, with the care and attention which will be bestowed upon it, this will be reme died by means of the usual training which it will be subjected to. The mare, which is now at the Royal Mews, Windsor, will ultimately be placed in the paddocks at Cumberland lodge, under the care of Mr. Quarton, His Royal Highness's stud-groom, for the purpose of raising a stock in this country from the purest blood of Arabia. DEATH OF LIEUT.-GEN. LORD VIVIAN, LATE MAS TER-GENERAL OF THE ORDNANCE.—lntelligence was received last night, which caused the deepest regret in the garrison at Woolwich, that Lieut.-Gen. the Right Hon. Richard Hussey Lord Vivian had died in Germany. This brave and gallant officer, on being appointed Master-Gen. of the Ordnance, on the 19th of May, 1835, performed the duties of his office with great zeal and ability, and by his urbanity, kindness, and attention to all was universally looked upon as the officers' and soldiers' friend. His lord ship continued master-general until the accession of the present government to power, in September, 1841, when he retired, having previously been raised to the peerage by the government of which he was a member. Lord Vivian was born on the 28th of July, 1775, and entered the army as an ensign on the 31st July, 1793 ; promoted to lieut. 20th of Oct., 1793 ; captain, 7th of May, 1794 ; major, 9th of March, 1803; lieutenant-colonel, 28th of September, 1804; colonel, 20th of February, 1812; major-general, 4th of June, 1814; and lieutenant-general, 22d of July, 1830. The lieutenant general served in Flanders and Holland, under the Duke of York from June, 1794, until the return of the army in 1795. He was present at the sortie from Nuneguen, and was left with a picquet of the 28th regiment, in conjunction with other picquets, to hold it after the retreat of the army. He was present in the affair of Geldermalsen, in which his regi ment (the 28th) suffered severely, and in other skirmishes. His lordship was also present in all the different battles .which took place during the expedition to the Helder, ex cepting in the landing. Commanded the 7th hussars in the campaign under Sir John Moore in 1808 and 1809. Com manded a brigade of cavalry in the Peninsula from Sept. 1813, until the return of the army ; including the battles of Orthes, Nive, and Toulouse. He was severely wounded in carrying the bridge of Croix d'Orade, near Toulouse, and served at the battle of Waterloo. Lord Vivian received a medal and one clasp for Sahagun, and Benevente, and Orthes. His lordship's death causes a vacancy in the Ist dragoons, of which regiment he was colonel. A crime, attended with an exhibition of depravity and barbarity but rarely equalled, engaged the attention of the Court of Assizes for the Gard, held at Nismes, during one of its recent sittings. Etienne Perrier, a man 55 years of age, was brought before it to be tried for the murder of his wife, under the following circumstances. It appeared from the evidence, that at the end of January last, Jane Perrier, the deceased, was discharged from the central prison of Mont pellier, where she bad undergone confinement during a cer tain period for a theft of which she had been convicted. She brought away with her the petty sum of 40 francs only, and yet the possession of this was believed to have been the exciting cause of her death. On Wednesday, the 2d February last, this woman and her husband came to occupy a room in the house of the widow Durand, in the rue Payee, at Nismes, and both were seen entering it together about seven o'clock in the evening of the next day, but from that hour the woman was never more beheld alive. On the Saturday following, Madame Durand went to the well to draw water, but was prevented by some solid body lying at the bottom. She obtained the assistance of some persons with long pole s having hooks at the end, and by means of these it was soon ascertained that the impediment was a dead body. The commissary of police being sent for, in his presence it was raised, and ascertained to be the corpse of a female, but so mutilated that she could not at once be identified. The head was fractured, the throat cut, and the face so disfigured that the features could not be recognised. All the lodgers and other inhabitants of the house were summoned ruund the magistrate, and all appeared except Perrier and his wife. On proceeding to their apartment, the door was found shut, but the key was outside. On entering the room, the follow ing evidence of crime, under the most savage deliberation, was disclosed. The bed showed that one person had slept in it. It had no marks of violence, but there was a stain of blood on the bolster, which indicated that some victim had been nea struck in sleep. A mass of clotted blood was found etirkiapnehair, and behind the door a marmite (an earthen agr-tv wasessl2e efilled pair with of had evidently still exhibiting these and other features, pantaloons, known discovered. wn ln to an b o e : long to Perri other conclusion than blood-stains, though endea voursbeen made to wash them out. From senseless by the that,atures, it was impossible to come to any when he bad rendered his wife blows inflicted upon her, he had taken her out of tne bed, and deli r t berately pl ace d h er h ea d b e t ween hi s knees and cut her throat clotted gore, whe re it stiliacl with a knif e , w hi c h h e l e f t near th e it was subsequently as ce rtainyedcovered with blood, and which morn ing of the murder. That the corpse of the person murdered in the room was the same as found in the well, was c l ear ly evidenced by the ma r k s of blood which could be very the distinctlywito witnesses s tsreasc testifieded from tthoe theone repeatedplace to the other. Several of quarrels between this degra d e d couple, one of whom, Per rier • was an inveterate d ru nkard, and both were thieves, for the ni t i . is roba well as the wom an had been in the bands of justice fo appear s that long before the murder he had atte i rnPd to drown his wife. She was found floating senseless near the bank of the river , but was taken out and resuscitated. o, her first coming to her senses she exclaimed, " Ah ! le bri gand ! " but could never afterwards be prevailed upon to accuse him or any one else of the act. On the present charge the jury, after half an hour's deliberation, delivered a verdict of guilty, but without premeditation, whereupon the court sentenced the prisoner to hard labour at Ole hulks for life. SEC OND EDITION. J Standard-office, Eleven o'clock. HER MAJESTY'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND. DEPARTURE OF DER MAJESTY FROM WINDSOR CASTLE. (Prom Last Night's London Standard.) Her Majesty left Windsor Castle this morning about five o'clock, and proceeded to the Slough Station, where the state carriage of the Great Western Railway was in readi ness to convey the Court by special train to Paddington. Her Majesty. his Royal Highness Prince Albert and suite, proceeded from Paddington over Vauxhall Bridge to Wool wich, attended by a military escort. In consequence of the early hour her Majesty passed along the line of road almost unobserved ; but when seen she was loudly and enthusiastically cheered. ARRIVAL AND EMBARKATION OF HER MAJESTY AT WOOLWICH. At a quarter before seven o'clock it was ascertained that the Royal cortege was approaching. In a few minutes after wards a discharge of cannon from the Dock-yard battery announced the arrival of her Majesty, Prince Albert, and suite. The band of the Royal Marines immediately played the National Anthem, and the soldiers of that gallant corps presented arms. Her Majesty and Court arrived in three of the Royal travelling carriages and four, preceded by outriders, and escorted by a detachment of Light Dragoons. The Queen and Prince Albert occupied the first carriage. In the other carriages were the Duchess of Norfolk, the Lady-in-Waiting; the Hon. Miss Matilda Paget, the Maid of Honour; Colonels Bouverie and Wylde, Equerries in Waiting ; Capt. Meynell, and the Hon. G. E. Anson, treasurer to his Royal Highness Prince Albert. The Earl of Morton, the Lord in Waiting, arrived sometime previous. On the arrival of the Royal Carriages, they drove at a slow pace down the Dockyard to the landing steps of the pier. Her Majesty was handed out of her carriage by the Earl of Delawarr, Lord Chamberlain, and the Earl of Liverpool, Lord Steward, and was immediately conducted to the Admi ralty barge. On her Majesty alighting his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge kissed her hand, and shortly afterwards gave a most affectionate kiss on the cheek, bidding her farewell, and wishing her a safe and happy voyage. Her Majesty was at tended down the steps by Sir George Cockburn, and handed into the barge by the Earl of Haddington. Prince Albert immediately followed. The Queeu and his Royal Highness appeared in excellent health and spirits, and, as the barge proceeded to the Royal yacht, they were most enthusiastically cheered. Her Ma jesty smiled very graciously, and bowed repeatedly in answer to the cheers with which she was greeted. Her Majesty was attired in a blue silk dress, a white silk bonnet, and wore a splendid shawl of Paisley manufacture. His Royal Highness was dressed in plain clothes, over which he had a military cloak with red collar, and had on a travelling cap. Sir Francis Collier had the honour of steering the Admi ralty barge, and on its arrival alongside the royal yacht, her Majesty was received by Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, an d was assisted up the accommodation ladder, that had been rigged expressly for the occasion, and covered with flags, by Mr. Breaks, the secretary to the senior officer in command. As soon as her Majesty was afloat, the yards of the differ ent vessels that comprised the squadron and others in com mission in the river were manned, and formed a very impo sing and gratifying spectacle, and as her Majesty stepped on board the royal yacht, the sailors loudly cheered. It was caught up by the men of the other vessels and was continued on the shores on both sides. The Royal standard was then struck on board the barge, and immediately hoisted to the mainmast of the Royal George, and another discharge of cannon announced that the Sovereign had embarked. In a few minutes afterwards the Earl of Delewarr, Lord Chamberlain; the Earl of Liverpool, Lord Steward ; the Earl of Jersey, Master of the Horse ; the Earl of Morton, Lord in Waiting; Colonel Bouverie; Captain Meynell ; Hon. J. C. Anson ; the Duchess of Norfolk, Lady in Waiting, and some few other attendants on her Majesty and Prince Albert, were on board, and precisely as the clock struck seven, the Royal yacht was under weigh, and towed by the Monkey steamer, proceeded down the river amidst the continued cheers of those assembled. As the Royal yacht moved on, the different vessels saluted her by a discharge of guns. Sir James Clarke, M.P., her Majesty's Physician, ac companied the Queen on her voyage, and will remain in attendance until the court returns. On the Queen and Prince Albert entering the Admiralty barge, his Royal Highness presented the crew with a purse containing gold. The whole of the squadron was under the command of Lord Adolphus Fitzclarence, the Captain of the Royal George. It consisted of the following : The Shearwater steam-vessel, Captain John Washington. The Salamander steam-vessel, Commander A.S.Hammond. The Lightning steam-vessel, Lieutenant Commander G. Snell. • The Black Eagle steam-vessel, Master Commander S. B. Cooke. The Rhadamanthus steam-vessel, Master Commander T. Lean. The Fearless, steam-vessel, Captain F. Bullock. The Lightning steam-vessel was ordered by his lordship to precede the Royal George, and consequently led the way down the river. The other steam-vessels followed in the wake of the Royal Yacht, according to the seniority of their commanders. The Salamander steam-vessel, being of larger draught of water, was ordered off sooner ; but in getting under weigh she fouled with the moorings of a hulk, and broke some part of her paddle-wheel. The damage was speedily repaired, and she proceeded to her destination about half an hour after the squadron had departed. Orders were given yesterday to have the " steam up" at five o'clock this morning. The steam-boats from London did not arrive in time to witness her Majesty's embarkation. One boat proceeded down the river afterwards, but in consequence of the un propitious state of the weather it only contained a few pas sengers. The Pique, 36, Captain Stopford, The Daphne, 17, sloop, Captain James Onslow, And the Wolverine, 18, sloop, will, with all the yachts has been be longing to the members of the Royal Yacht squadron, join her The he Majesty c ap c a r t d t o h w e n, Tore, u 0, flag-ship and attend a her er Sheerness,to Scotland. removed from her moorings to the Nore, to salute the Royal squadron on passing. By eight o'clock the town of Woolwich had assumed its usual quietude, and most of the distinguished visitors bad taken their departure. GRAVESEND. Shortly after nine o'clock the Royal squadron hove in sight. The Royal yacht at this time was towed by a second steam-vessel, the Monkey tug, being found insufficient in power. On her Majesty arriving off Tilbury Fort she was received by a royal salute from the guns of the fortress, and the troops in the garrison were drawn out and presented arms. On the Gravesend shore, the inhabitants and visitors were assembled is considerable numbers, notwithstanding the unfavourable weather, and a general impression that her Majesty would not arrive Kt so early an hour. The scene, however, at this moment, was very animated. The royal squadron was received with loud cheers as it passed, the Gravesend steamers hoisted their flags, and the different bands played " God save the Queen !" until the royal yacht was out of sight. THE NOICE• The following was received by Watson's Telegraph this morning : " The royal squadron, with ber Majesty, his Royal High ness Prince Albert, and suite, was off the Nore Light at 11 o'clock this morning. Her Majesty's yacht, Royal George, in tow by two steamers. " The Royal squadron was received at the Nore by a royal salute from her Majesty's ship Camperdown (Admiral Sir Edward Brace, C. 8.), the Pique frigate, the Daphne, and other vessels with their yards manned. " A great number of yachts, steamers, and boats of all descriptions, were assembled to see ber Majesty pass. The scene is described as being most animated. Wind from the eastward, light breezes and fine. " In passing down the river her Majesty's yacht commu nicated with Watson's Telegraph Station, and reported `All's well." The royal squadron passed Herne Bay at half-past 12 o'clock. "At half-past 12 her Majesty's ships Pique and Daphne were still at anchor off the Nore light. DANGEROUS ILLNANESS OF RBURY THE ARCHBISHOP OF CTE. With feelings of the most unfeigned regret, it, becomes our painful duty to inform our readers that the anticipations of Dr. Howley's speedy return to convalescence, in which we indulged during the latter part of last week, are not, owing to the inscrutable dispensations of Providence, likely to be realised. It will be recollected that the bulletin of Saturday announced that his Grace had passed a good night, and that he was gaining strength. During the whole of Saturday no fresh symptoms exhibited themselves from which anything like an unfavourable conclusion might be drawn ; and, as may be gathered from the following bulletin of Sunday, the Archbishop on the preceding night had been in a favourable condition : . . . His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury had a good night, but has not been in so favourable a state during the morning, his strength having rather failed during the day. " Addington Park, Sunday afternoon." Shotrly after breakfast, however, the most Rev. Primate's health began to decline ; and his Grace has since continued to fail in strength, as announced in the following bulletin, dated at seven o'clock this morning:— "Ills Grace the Archbishop has had some hours of rest less sleep, and is much weaker this morning. " Addington Park, seven o'clock, Aug. 29." The spasmodic cholera with which the Most Reverend Primate was ori g inally attacked has not at all returned • but the severity of his illness was such as to leave his bodily powers in that utter state of prostration, that the best medi cal skill has been ineffectual in restoring the tone of his cor poreal faculties. The Primate is in his 77th year. END OF M a . O'CONNELL'S MAYORALTY.—Mr. O'Con nell ha i l announced that he does not dgain assume the office of Lord Mayor; and thus these sanguine beings who calcu lated so complacently on transferring the burtben of his maintenance from his shoulders to those of the citizens of Dublin, have that cup of consolation dashed from their lips for the present. He assigns as his reason the impropriety of holding civic office while so exclusively engaged in politi cal agitation as he says be intends henceforth to be. We give him every credit for assigning a sufficient reason, if it be the true one : but the truth, we have no doubt, is, that the several Lord Mayors expectant have kicked against the proposal of keeping him perpetually in office, and that he finds it safer to retire with a good grace than to risk a more summary ejection. Be it, as it may, he goes to renew an agitation, the cessation of which, he admits, has been at tended by a decided advantage to the country.—Dublin Mail.

There has rarely been any p ro j ect, however im portant and beneficial, but the projetors have met with opposition; and unfortunately, in my case there has been no exception ; for, notwithstanding the favoura ble p ro g ress of the work ( a nd when it is considered that the caisson weighs 150 tons, and is 30 feet in diameter, it has been equal to my most sanguine expectation), there have been persons in the vicinity of Deal and Walmer diligently engaged in promulgating the most absprd and unfounded rumours, but the best refutation of their malicious misrepresentations is the advance made to the completion of the object.

A DittlNKi.nn,—Look at that grey-headed man, of three snore and upwards, sitting by the way-side. He was ono an elder of the kirk ; and a pious man he was, if ever piety adorned the temples—" the lyart haffets, wearing thin and bare"—of a Scottish peasant. What eye beheld the many hundred steps that, one by one, with imperceptible grada tion, led him down—down—down to the lowest depth of shame, suffering, and ruin ? For many years before it was bruited about that Gabriel Mason was addicted to drink, his wife used to sit weeping in the spence when her sons and daughters were out at their work in-the fields ; and the infa tuated man, fierce in the excitement of raw ardent spirits, kept causelessly raging and storming through every nook of that once so peaceful tenement, which for many happy years had never been disturbed by the loud voice of anger or re proach. His eyes were seldom turned on his unhappy wife, except with a sullen scowl or fiery wrath; but, when they 'did look on her with kindness, there was also a self-upbraid ing in their expression, on account of his cruelty : and at the sight of such transitory tenderness, her heart would over flow with forgiving affection, and her eyes with tears. But neither domestic sin nor domestic sorrow will conceal from the eyes and ears of men ; and at last Gabriel Mason's name was a bye-word in the mouth of the scoffer. One Sabbath he entered the kirk in a state of miserable abandonment, and from that day he was no longer an elder. To regain his character seemed to him, in his desperation, beyond the power of man, and against the decree of God. So he deli vered himself up, like a slave, to that one appetite; and in a few years his whole household had gone to destruction. His wife was a matron almost in the prime of life when she died ; but, as she kept wearing away to the other world, her face told that she felt her years had been too many in this. Her eldest son, unable in pride or shame to lift up his eyes at kirk or market, went away to the city, and enlisted into a regiment about to embark on foreign service. His two sis ters went to take farewell of him, but never returned ; one, it is said, having died of a fever in the infirmary, just as she had been made a pauper ; and the other—for the sight of sin, and sorrow, and shame, and suffering, is ruinous to the soul—gave herself up in her beauty, an easy prey to a de stroyer, and doubtless has run her course of agonies, and is now at peace. The rest of the family dropped down, one by one, out of sight into inferior siruations in far-off places; but there was a curse, it was thought, hanging over the family, and of none of them did a favourable report ever come to their native parish ; while he, the infatuated sinner, whose vice seemed to have worked all the woe, remained in the chains of his tyrannical passion, nor seemed ever, for more than the short term of a day, to cease hugging them to his breast. —Christopher North in his Sporting Jacket. NAUTICAL ANECDOTE OF HER MAJESTY WIZEN PRIN CESS VICTORIA.—It is not generally known that her Ma jesty is so conversant with matters of seamanship as she really is. Before her accession to the throne of these realms, no amusement afforded her more delight than marine ex cursions; and, during the summer season, her beautiful yacht, the Emerald, was in frequent requisition. Nor were her Majesty's trips at all times unattended with danger, and the following instance will show that a very narrow escape from one of the many "perils of the deep" occurred during one of her voyages. At a time when her Majesty was round a portion of the Isle of Wight, her favourite cruising ground, on account of the beautiful scenery to be found there, a breeze sprung up, and before the Emerald could get into Cowes Roads, for which she was beating up, it freshened into a gale. In squally weather, there ie a very ugly short sea that runs in the channel, which now washed the yacht's deck " fore and aft." Her Majesty, however, with a degree of nerve seldom to be found in her sex, and oftimes wanting in a man, stayed on deck, and quietly, though carefully attended to the efforts of the men. The pilot on board, Mr. Saunders, was giving directions, and doing everything that a seaman could do to bring his onerous charge safe into port, when a sharp squall came and took the Emerald " aback," and crack went the topmast immediately above the " cap." Seeing the danger, Saunders sprang to where the Queen was standing,seized her round the waist, and had scarcely time to deposit her farther aft, where less chance of harm existed, when crash came the topmast down upon the deck, directly on the spot where the Queen had stationed herself, scarcely an instant intervening between her removal and its fall ; had it fallen on her, it must inevitably have crushed her. In gratitude to her preserver, the Queen (then Princess) got him appointed as a master of the navy, and after her ac cession to the throne she ordered him to be brought to court. He was for some time master of the Firebrand and Royal Yacvt steamer, (now called the Black Eagle, in honour of the King of Prussia,) but, it is to be regretted, he is recently dead. An ample provision has, however, been considerately made by the Queen for his wife and family. CONNEXION OF TRADE AND HARVESTS.—That there is a strict and indissoluble connection between the state of trade and commerce in any country, and the state of its harvests, is plain from what has taken place in this country within the last ten years. Our commercial affairs have been prosperous or adverse just in proportion as our harvests have been abundant or otherwise. In illustration of the truth of this assertion, we do not know whether we can do better -than note down the average price of wheat for the last eight or ten years, opposite to the annual surplus or deficiency in the public revenue for these years. For the years 1832, 1833, 1834, 1835, and 1836, the account would stand as follows : Price of Wheat Annual Surplus per qr. Season. of national rev. 1832 38s. 8d... Above Average .....£ 5,696 1833 525. 1id..... ~ . do. 1,024,696 1834 465. 2d.. d0..... 1835 395. 4d. 1836.. 4Bs. 6d. do. - 1,590,727 In 1837, a series of deficient harvests set in, the effects of which were soon perceptible on the national finances; there being thenceforward not a surplus but a deficiency in the annual revenues. We do not happen to be in possession of any account of the revenue for that year, but the following statement embraces the period extending from that year to the present time : Price of Wheat Q Annual Deficiency per qr. ' - ' eason ' of national rev. 1838 645. 7d. Scarcity £1,428,534 1839........ 70s. Bd. do. 430,325 1840 .. G6s. 4d.. do 1841 ...... .. 00s. Od.. . BARGEMEN AND BOATMEN.—The friends of this long neglected class will learn with satisfaction that arrangements are being made for opening an Episcopal Floating Chapel near this city, for the instruction of the men employed on the river Severn and the Worcester and Birmingham canal. The venerable Society for promoting Christian Knowledge has made a grant of £5O in aid of this benevolent design; and our worthy Diocesan, the Bishop of Worcester, with his accustomed liberality, h a s subscribed £25. Several hand some donations have been added, and a few annual subscrip tions. We trust that commercial men and other respectable individuals on the line of these navigations will patronize an undertaking fraught with so many benefits to a body of men proverbial for their demoralized character, yet very useful in their station, and capable of improvement if placed under more favourable circumstances, as has been proved in vari ous parts of the kingdom. Sunday traffic had a most injuri ous effect upon this class. One of the boatmen executed at Stafford for the Rugeley murder, stated to a clergy. man, who visited him in Prison, that during the fourteen years he had been employed on the canal he had never once attended public worship. He was consequently in a most awful state of ignorance. Some years ago a boatman suf fered for the same fearful crime of murder at Chester. That wretched man solemnly declared he had never heard there was a place of reward or punishment in a future world, and had never uttered a prayer during his whole life, till he was committed to prison. Nothing could exceed the attention he paid to the chaplain's instructions. The se thi ngs " oug h t not to be in a country professing Christianty. It would be well if factors, tradesmen, &c., when ordering goods to be sent by canal, would avoid. infringing on the sacred rest of the Sabbath, a practice productive of the greatest evils. We hail, as philanthropists, the efforts being made to raise a degraded class of our countrymen in the scale of religion and morals. In addition to the three churches erected on the Weaver navigation in Cheshire, three places of public wor ship have been recently set apart for boatmen in Staffordshire —in other parts of the kingdom a friendly interest has been excited on behalf of this class, which we trust will soon be come universally privileged with the grant of the Sabbath, to which as British subjects they are Justly entitled.—Wor cester Journal.

Id. each ; some considerable sales of salted River Plate Ox and Cow have also been made, principally at 3.1 d. for the former, and 4id. to 4 gd. per lb. for the latter.—Tobacco. About 170 hhds. have been sold, including 50 for export, and 25 for Ire land. Prices of all descriptions, except the lowest, are fully maintained. The first ship from Virginia arrived yesterday with 600 hhds. There has been a fair inquiry for Brimstone this week, and about 200 tons disposed of at the quotations.—The sales in Sumac are limited to 100 bags Sicily, at Os 3d per cwt.—Not any thing to report in Argols or Cream of Tartar.-22 casks flag Annatto have been sold at 6id to 8d per lb.—ln Madders anti Roots nothing done.—Small sales of Ist Philadelphia Bark reported at 8s per ewt.

LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, Ava. 29 We have had a large supply of Beast and Sheep at this day's market, but generally speaking of a very inferior quality. Prime things fully maintained last week's quotations. Prime Beef tkl middling 5d to sid ; prime Wethers 61(1; Ewes and middling Sheep d, sinking the offal. Number of Beasts 1138; Sheep and Lambs 69z6. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET; AUGUST 29. The manufacturing districts having become more peaceable; people are recovering confidence; arid although we are not able to quote a decided advance in the price of Butter ; yet are things certainly the turn dearer, Provisions are without alteration. Bacon in moderate demand, at 45s to 475, as in quality. MANCHESTER CORN EXCHANGE, AUGUST 27. Though prices have again somewhat receded, there has been rather more disposition shewn to do business in Wheat and Flour, both here, at Liverpool, and Wakefield; and some symptoms of returning confidence have been observable. Oats and Oatmeal have gone off slowly at declining prices. With the exception of a few declining showers, the weather has, on the whole, been favourable for harvest work, though in other quarters more rain has fallen than we have had here. A considerable number of the operatives in certain branches of our manufactures, in this and the neighbouring towns and district, still decline to resnme their employment; but as all the matters agitated during the recent dis turbances have now resolved themselves into a question of wages, it is probable that things will shortly resume their usual course. At to-day's market buyers of Wheat still act cautiously, and holders are not pressing ; our quotations, which have of late been very uncertain, will now more accurately represent the - value of this grain Flour, is to 2s per sack, and is per barrel lower, with more inclination to buy at the reduction. Oats Id per bushel, and Meal is per load lower. In other articles no particular variation. No new stuff offering ; Red English Wheat would bring 8s to is 3d 'albs. Oats about 3s 451bs ; and Meal 278 to 28s per load. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, AUGUST 29, --- During the latter part of last week, our market assumed a quieter aspect, and the demand was less active this morning, There was a better attendance of the trade, and more general enquiry for Cotton. The amount of business is estimated at 5,500 bales, of which only 500 are placed to speculative account. The inquiry to-day has been more for long stapled Cotton, near 2000 (of which 900 are Egyptian) have been taken. On the whole the market is very steady, and prices extremely firm, having an upward ten dency. COTTON MARKET.—WEEKLY REPORT. Although the manufacturing districts are still unsettled, and the mills have not resumed their accustome i activity, the demand from the trade has been regular, and from speculators extensive, and an advance has taken place in Surat and common and middling American of *d th in other descriptions there is little change. Speeulators have taken Iti ,400 American, and 4005 Surat, and ex porters•63o American and 60 Surat. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND 1! From the 19th to the 25 MPORTS OF COTTON, ,th instant, inclusive.

Inclusive of a parcel of Wheat from Canada, the arrivals within the past three days amount to upwards of 10,000 qrs., chiefly from Baltic ports ; we have also a good fresh supply of Colonial Flour and several small lots of Oatmeal, but the imports during the same period from all other quarters are light. The duty on Foreign Wheat has been increased this week to Ils. per qr.-, and on Flour to 6s. 'ad. per barrel, the anti cipation of which and the certainty of a rapid advance in the rates on this Grain, have communicated a degree of firmness to the trade to which we have of late been accustomed ; a return of almost constant rain has also furnished additional stimulus, and several cargoes of Wheat, mostly Danzim and red Baltic, have changed hands on speculation, at the full rates on Tuesday last, and in some cases at rather more money than was obtainable on that day ; the millers have, however, been very inactive, and we have had no improve ment in the demand for any other article in the interval be- tween our last market and to-day. Further speculative purchases in Wheats to a pretty good extent have been effected this morning, in addition to which a fair quantity has been taken by buyers from a distance in the interior, as well as some for Ireland ; and notwith standing' our local millers have remained mostly on the re serve, the transactions on the whole are considerable ; holders are firm, but we cannot state any advance except upon general middling and low descriptions, which are Id. to 2d. per bushel dearer. Flour is more readily sold, but at no quotable improvement in value. The business doing in Oats and Oatmeal is at Tuesday's rates, but the sales are quite in retail; no new lriih at market. For other articles of the trade we continue former quota tions, though little or nothing is passing in them. The weather is still very wet.
