The glittering stars from their temples of space Look down and grow dim o'er the isles I embrace ; For my chariot wheels carry sunlight afar, And my oritiamme, lightning, aye chalenges war, Till hill calls to valley and mountains reply, With the thunder I wield while I traverse the sky. Though I frown and have shadows While the bee winds his horn, I rinz sithes in the meadows, With the whetstone at morn, ight send the mower home wearily About the green hedges I convolvulus twine; Drive kine to the sedges; Give bloom to the vine; In the brook plunge the peasant boy cheerily. I canopy lanes for young lovers to stroll In the dimness of eve by the light of the soul Where the glow of my roses shade, Illumines t Yetvainlyopposes bltish of a maid! Ah, lover With a s( ! fond lovers ! you ne'er can commune asitive confidant secret as June. y feet; for I bring him the joy surrounded his thoughts and his heart when a boy ^ni of his porch of full fifty years gone, n he loitered a listener in woods, not alone— He shall dr No ; a face tl: was fairer, with soul insincere, Poured its poisonous balm in the coquetting ear Of her he adored, till fire flashed from his eyes, And he thrashed the intruder, and bore off the prize ; his dreary thoughts brightening. vers for rough rambles ; Gild the broom in the wild ; I dry meads for the gambols Of each dear happy child; ind of all Nature's love tightening.

I will fill the warm air with a myriad hum, And the dragon-fly bold to your horse-fold shall come : Where nightingale pineth, And young squirrels grow, And brown glow-worm shineth 'Midst fox-gloves below, Oh, citizens ! citizens! come and attune Your dull souls in the forests and pastures of June. Tait's Magazine. I have -1k LITERARY NOTICES England in the Nineteenth Century. Northern Division: Lancashire. How and Parsons, London. Part VI. of the Northern Division (Lancashire) is now published, and the writer maintains the interest of his diver sified narrative with nnrelaxing vigour, dwelling on these objects of grandeur, antiquity, or beauty, in modern erec tions, ancient ruins, or inviting scenery ; and these traits of character peculiar to the inhabitants, which present the greatest attractions to those who may visit the localities which he itinerates, or those who, debarred of that gratifica tion, may praise the work in the family parlour or the study. The valley of the Ribble, with its ancient halls ; the ancient Roman town of Ribchester, and the interesting and antique chapel of Stydd in its vicinity, are graphically described. The following extract conveys a pleasing and merited confi dence to the two celebrated brothers, William and Charles " Passing through Tottington we came to Walmersley, on the banks of the Irwell, which exhibits the remains of a beacon, erected in the days of Elizabeth to rouse the country against the threatened Spanish invasion. In fine weather, Runcorn, at the estuary of the Mersey, can be descried from this lofty station. A tower stands on an eminence to the left, erected by the Grants, who were the first manufacturers of the district. William, the eldest has lately deceased. Him and Charles we have seen now for some fifteen years come in their carriage into Manchester on market-days, seated side by side, looking of all things like a pair of brothers, happy in themselves and in each other. The sight is changed : Charles comes now alone, looking bereft and downcast. " The father was a farmer in Inverness-shire. A flood stripped his farm of his stock and very soil, compelling a change of place. He and his son William made their way southwards, and found employment in a print-works near Bury, where the youth served his apprenticeship. It is said that when they reached the spot where they settled, they were in doubt as to what course was best. They stood on a bill which overlooked the surrounding country, and gave them every opportunity for making a judicious choice. The valley was at their feet, and through it the Irwell was making its circuitous way. Their well-practised eye saw the advan tages which the spot offered, yet other localities had their recommendations. What was to be done? A stick was put up, and where that fell, in that direction would they betake .s for a home. In commemoration of this event, probably as a kind of public thank-offering for the sperity they reaped, they caused a monument to be erected " in this place these remarkable men pitched their tent, and by years and days of industry, enterprise, and benevo lence, accumulated a million of money, earning meanwhile the good-will of thousands, the gratitude of many. and the respect of all who knew them." ,raving of the monument alluded to is given. of Bury and Bolton are noticed at considerable d amongst the illustrations are views of the birth place of the present Prime Minister, Radcliffe Church and Tower, Hall in the Wood, Turton Tower, &c., besides a re presentation (accompanied by painfully-interesting details) of the execution of the Earl of Derby at Bolton, after be had thence dislodged the republican troops. The number is also embellished with two engravings from steel, one of the Vale of Todmorden, and another of the far-famed ruins of Furness A. neat st side of Morecambe Bay THE THAMES TUNNEL. (From Blaekwood's Magazine) This extraordinary work is now on the point of completion ; and the boldness of the enterprise and the indefatigable labour with which it has been prosecuted. and the remarkable skill which has been exercised in bringing it to this point of un questionable success, place it among the most remarkable scientific performances of the age. We know that anything may be laughed at, and that the world is fond of laughing the most at the gravest things ; but we have no inclination to n ridicule of a work which exhibits so singular a com ion of the daring and practical—of the lofty speculation he profound science, both so characteristic of England, so honourable to the national character. It is true that hief engineer of this stupendous work is a Frenchman ; ce see much less ground for national jealousy in his ori gin, than for national honour in his employment. England boasts, and justly, of her attracting the commerce of the ;vorld. Her still prouder boast should be her attracting the talents of the worla. A nation can give no higher evidence of its superiority than its disregard of littleness of all kinds. The Roman never gave a clearer evidence of his being marked for the master of the world than when he borrowed the arms of the conquered nations—when he adoped the lance of the Sunnite, the shield of the Volscian, and the falchion of the Tarantine. We only wish that our adoptions were larger and more frequent, that we had the power of calling to our coun try the talents of every great sculptor, architect, and painter of Europe ; and that we had thus nobly monopolised Thor walsen, Canova, and the builder of the Pantheon of Paris, and the still lovlier Madeline. toe tunnel has now completely reached across the river — distance of 1,200 feet—and the projector and engineer had he gratification, a short time since, of being the first who walked from bank to bank, to the shaft on the London side. Qhafts on both sides of the river, which are intended ,sengers, are really grand things. They are a suc . staircases going round a vast circular excavation , ~en 70 and 80 feet deep, and, when they shall be all lighted with gas, will be among the most extraordinary of the whole structure. Even now they strongly realise the poetic conception of the descent into the caverns of the Egyptian mysteries ; and the view of the interior, nearly a luarter of a mile in extent, lighted with a long succession of elancholy flames, would probably have suggested to a eek the image of an entrance into Tartarus. But, in our the sublime is well exchanged for the practical, and this and formidable-looking cavern will he stripped of its associations by the passage of carters and waggons, ..s of goods and herds of bullocks. Still it would be al most to divest ourselves of the recollections really attaching to this work. We have before us altogether a new attempt to conquer nature—a great experiment to make rivers pas sable without boat or bridge—a new and capable contrivance for expediting the intercourse of mankind. The stone bridge is at all times the most expensive edifice in the world, and the bridge of boats is always liable to accidents, and almost certain to be broken up in every instance of a flood. Be sides this, the fixed bridge blocks up the navigation of the river for all vessels beyond the size of a barge or a small steam-boat. The expense of the stone bridge also is a n rraaas- Waterloo Bridge cost upwards of a million 31a to Bridge about as much more—Westminster and ancieinfrlys Bridges, which were built at a cheaper rate prob a bj,;,'e k aPer times, so constantly demand repairs that they but the tunnel cost more than either of the modern ones ; side to aide of has the advantage of giving a passage from river, a s t o :At ) ll .e Thames, where, from the breadth of the millions th an r o lage would have probably cost nearer two across without and where no bridge could be thrown Thames, that 0 0 ,. - Zdng up the most important part of the of London.

UNITED STATES. ARRIVAL OF THE ACADIA The following appeared in a second edition of the STANDARD 1 on Tuesday last : The mail steamship Acadia, Captain Ryrie, from Boston .. _ and Halifax nailed as bein off Holyhead at half-past six o'clock yesterday evening, and arrived opposite the Rock (in this port) at about one o'clock this morning. The news caterers were on the (lid vine to obtain their files of papers, and took advantage of a Rock Ferry steam-boat, provided by Messrs. Nrlv ^l6- r, the agents of the - company, and which was lying in waiting at George's Pier, to put off and bring the mails on shore. A few minutes after one o'clock the ex pected steam-ship came up the river in gallant style, firing guns when she got opposite to Seacombe, and as she pro ceeded past Wallasey Pool. She kept well on the Cheshire shore, and the small steamer having put off to her, was soon within hail, and all were anxious to get on board. The commander of the Acadia, however, as soon as he saw her, hailed her to go astern to the assistance of a steamer, which he conceived was in a sinking state, and his request was immediately complied with. There was a good deal of fog on the water at the Cheshire side at the time., and it appeared that the Acadia had, in taking a wide berth, clear of the vessels on this side the river, run foul of a Woodside steamer, the Cleveland, lying at anchor a little to the south of Woodside Ferry, and done her some damage, —and hence the alarm of Captain Ryrie. The small steamer, on reaching the damaged vessel, found that her condition was by no means so perilous as had been supposed, she being all afloat, having had only some of her bulwarks forward carried away by the concussion, and the crew (some in their shirts) roused from their berths, and in considerable alarm from the concussion. No one was hurt ; and another river steamer having come up, the vessel was left to be towed by her into a place of safety, s hould that have happened to be necessary. The Rock Ferry boat then steamed along side the Acadia, and the passengers getting on board, the usual scramble for abstracts of the log, &c. and newspapers took place, and the mails were transferred to the small steamer. Very few papers were, however, ob tained on board, the greater part being sent on shore, to gether with the mail bags, We are indebted to Mr. Thomp son, a gentleman belonging to Messrs. M`lver's office, for an early delivery of our own files, and several additional papers, of which we ha d more of the same date. The Acadia sailed from Boston eta p.m. on the Ist, and arrived off the Floating Light at a quarter before 12 o'clock last night, thus making the passage to this port in about 12 days and 8 hours—she having arrived opposite the town at 1 this morning. She left Halifax on the evening of the 3d, accomplishing the passage thence in 10 days 71 honrs—a rate of steaming fully maintaming the previous speed and cer tainty of the fine ships of this line. She met the Columbia at midnight, on the Ist, off Roston, and the latter vessel would probably reach that port by two o'clock next morning. It was reported at the time of her sailing from Halifax that a large steamer (supposed to be the Great Western) was seen passing of that place on the 2d, on her way to New York. The ge neral news brought by the Aca dia a pp ear to be of a better character, although they present nothing of a very striking character. The progress of Lord Ashburton's mis sion appears enveloped in strict diplomatic secrecy, but it is fully to be calculated upon from the little that has transpired, as being of a favourable description. The principal news will be found under the ABSTRACT several heads. The following is an June L-5 P.m., started from Boston. 2.—Wind N.E.

The committee of merchants, appointed by Santa Anna to revise and alter the tariff laws of the country, have reported, and all the alterations recommended by them have been ac ceded to. The new law does not go into effect until six months have elapsed from the 20th of April last. By the new tariff, brandy will pay 200 dollars arroba (25 lbs.) instead of 400 dollars, as by the old. Gin, 200 dols. per arroba, instead of 400 dols. Rum, which was before prohibited, will now pay 400 dols. per arroba. Wines (white) will pay 150 dols. per arroba, and red 125 dais. It may be recollected, that by the old tariff, white wines pay 250 dols. and red 225 dols., we speak of those im ported in casks. A proportionate reduction is to be made in all classes imported in bottles. Olive Oil will pay 4 dols. per quintal instead of 5 dols. Sperm Candles, 15 dais. per 100 lbs. instead of 25 dais. Codfish, 4 dols. per quintal instead of 5 dols. Steel 2 dollars per 1001bs. instead of 4 dollars. Raw Iron, 1 dollar per 1001bs. instead of 2 dollars. Wrought Iron, 2 dollars, instead of 4 dollars. Black Tea will pay 50 cents per lb. instead of I dollar. Green, 75 cents, instead of 1 dollar. Hams, which have always been prohibited, will now be ad mitted by paying 30 per cent. on amount of invoice, with 25 per cent. augmentation. Cloth, of all classes, will pay 80 cents. per van, instead of 1 dollar. Cotton prints, coloured, 9 cents per vara—they can now come in as coarse as 1 24 threads to the square inch—before prohibited under 30. This alteration will have the tendency to bring many English goods into the Mexican market, which were before as good as prohibited. Cotton handkerchiefs, coloured, will now pay y; cents, the square vara, instead of 12i. Cotton thread is prohibited, as formerly. REPORTED MURDER OF JOE SMITH, THE MORMON PROPHET, The Si.

At the date of the last mail from New York, the money market was quite easy. Money in fact was quite abundant, because nobody knew how to employ it, and could be readily had for all business purposes, if any such were offering, at very favourable rates on good securities. Paper of the first class was scarce, and inferior unsaleable at anything like current rates of interest. Foreign Exchange was plentiful, and not in demand. On London the rate was 7% to 8 ; and some good bills not indorsed here were offered at lower rates. Domestic Exchange slowly but steadily improving as the re sumption of specie payments are fast becoming imperative in all parts of the union. The Secretary of the Treasury has succeeded in raising in New York about two millions of dollars of the three million and a-half advertised for. The stock, it is known, was sold under par, and probably with some agreement that the go vernment should not appear again in the market before July or September, as it now finds purchasers in moderate amounts for investment at par. The interest is 6 per cent. The State of New York has obtained to the amount of its wants, at 7 per cent. Another issue of 7 per cent. stock is about to be made by the State to the banks of this city, at 7 per cent. to cover temporary loans to that amount to the State government. The market for stock has fluctuated a good deal since the departure of the last steamer, principally, however, in the prices of those of our local stocks , whic h are solely influ enced by speculation. The large amount of United States and New York stock, offering a favourable investment to capitalists, has probably caused such of the local stocks which are considered sound, to be neglected, and conse quently the transactions have been small. THE TARIFF. Congress had not touched the Tariff or either of the Ex chequer plans for months. On the 30th of June the Corn promise Act will come into operation, and a horizontal line of duties of 20 per cent. ad valorem is to be the rule. But legislation will be necessary to adapt that rule to existing laws and usages; and as it is now out of the question that Congress should, before that time, agree upon a bill that will be so full of details, and so largely discussed, as any Tariff bill must be, recourse must be had, as the last resource, to some comprehensive resolution, that for sixty or ninety days the present rate of duties shall continue to be levied. In the mean time, until something of a definite nature is determined respecting it, merchants cannot enter into opera tions of which the result may be materially varied, by the more or less of duties that may be imposed upon their re turned cargoes ; manufacturers, for the like cause, can nei ther venture to revive old, nor give extension to existing, factories, nor undertake new lines of business, while uncer tainty continues about the tariff ; and the consumers, the great mass, are both by the low prices of agricultural produce, and the want of a general circulating medium, prevented from any purchases beyond those of instant necessity. RESUMPTION OF SPECIE PAYMENTS BY THE BANKS OF NEW ORLEANS. The most important occurrence since the last arrival from the States is the resumption of specie payments by all the banks in New Orleans. At first, three of the banks held back, the Consolidated, the Citizens', and the State Bank ; but the depreciation to which their notes were immediately exposed, combined, we may presume, with the very strong indications of public opinion adverse to their course, and the evidence, a s regar d e d the other banks, that resumption did not lead to any run for specie, induced them to come in ; and New Orleans is now, with all its ten banks, a specie pay ing city. The effect of restoring the character of bank paper was necessarily to depreciate all irredeemable paper, and of that character were notes, a mounting, it is supposed to nearly one million of dollars, issued in sums under five dollars, by two of the three municipalities into which the city is divid ed, and which had been the favourite curren c y during the suspension, because the credit and property of the city were pledged for their redemption. But as they were not re deemable in specie, they ceased to circulate the moment specie payments were resumed ; and the holders, mostly among the labouring classes, became clamorous, and com mitted some outrages. These, however, were speedily checked by the police; and arrangements being immediately entered into to fund or redeem this floating paper, order was restored, and all will work smoothly. RESUMPTION IN KENTUCKY. From the annexed paragraph it will be seen that Kentucky too has joined the ranks of specie-paying States : LOUISVILLE, MAY 23, P.M.—We have no alteration to note in the money market, except as to the New Orleans banks. All of these but the Citizens' having resumed on 1 the 14th, their paper has much improved, though we are not able to give a quotation. Some have supposed on the autho rity of letters, that two or three other banks declined re sumption ; but the truth is, that all resolved to resume but the Citizens Bank. One of the banks in this city commenced paying specie to-day iu full, and the others, though they do not announce it, are, we believe, paying all demands actually made upon them.—Louisville Journal. The banks of Virginia will resume specie payments on the Ist of August. THE BOUNDARY QUESTION. The States of Massachusetts and Maine have appointed Commissioners, with full powers to arrange with the General Government the question of the North Eastern Boundary ; so that, it is to be presumed, this point in difference between the United States and Great Britain will be satisfactorily ad justed —as it is not to be supposed the two States named would have been invited to take the step they have unless some basis of arrangement consequent upon their acqui escence had been previously established. In other matters in discussion, the papers leave us entirely in the dark as to what is doing, though the settled sentiment to of the country, it is understood as well as of Con g ress, is that t n :ll will be harmonized. To such an extent indeed i s the of a ttePresentatives pushing its confidence in uninter rupted e, that it is busily engaged in cutting down army and nav y the minimum of a peace establishmen t.

From Le Patriote of Port au Prince of llth May.) On Saturday, the 7th inst., at twenty minutes past seven, in the evening, we experienced some severe shocks of an earthquake, which gut the whole town in commotion. At mid-day a large meteor was perceived passing to the east. The heat was excessive, and thick clouds hung over the neighbouring mountains, going in a dire‘..tion from southeast to the northeast. The seamen who were in the roads report that they felt the shock before they saw the houses shake, - which would indicate that the shock came from the east. Many persons, however, think they observed that the os cillations came from the north and went south. There were two very decided shocks, the first was not as long as the second ; the latter was the most violent, and lasted about three minutes. All abandoned their houses, and the streets were filled with the affrighted population. But a little more, and Port an Prily2o would have been the scene of a disaster similar to that of 140, a fatal year, which oc curred to the minds of every one. There is scarcely a single brick or stone bons,: vilai,e,b jias not suffered damage, they are all more or less damaged. Some, it is said, are scarcely habitable. The façade of the Senate House, on which is sculptured the arms of the Re public, surmounted by the tree of liberty, were detached from the edifice awl broken into pieces by the fall. The in terior of the building has also received some damage. In the night between Saturday and Sunday, two shocks were again felt, but not as violent as the first, one at 10 o'clock and the other at 12. At 11 o'clock in the morning of Sunday came another shock, mass at churels was inter rupted, and those officiating at it ran away, and many females ' fainted. Monday, at 11 o'clock in the morning, another shock. i l The weather during these three days had a lowering and at times a threatening appearance. Monday evening, a little rain, with excessive heat before and afterwards ; night cool. Tuesday, a change of weather, return of the breeze and ap pearance of rain. In the evening at eight o'clock, the weather Ni4s stormy and every thing seemed to indicate an abundance of rain. The hopes entertained yesterday have not been realised. On Wednesday we were awoke at a few minutes before five in the morning by another earthquake. During these latter days it appears to us as if the earth on which we were walking was constantly quaking. SAINT MARC.—A letter from this town, which has been communicated to us, infornis us thatthere too the earthquake of Saturday last was felt with the greatest violence ; many houses have been ao much shaken that they.threaten every instant to fall down. On some plantations in the neighbour hood of the town very great damage has been done. GONAIYES, Bth May.—Yesterday afternoon an earthquake was felt in this city, which was so violent that most of the houses in it were thrown down. At the same time, in con sequence of the shock, a fire broke out in the apothecary's shop of Mr. Invernezzes, and consumed in a few moments an entire block. The flames destroyed every think that came in their way ; there was not a drop of water in the town. All the houses which have not been burnt down have been injured by the earthquake, and this morning the shocks oc cur every quarter of an hour. The shops of Madame John joufferts and M. Dupuy have fallen a prey to the flames. The shops of M. Richard Dauphin and M. Oster, built of stone and Wick, have fallen down. Houses and shops are inaccessible, and we write these hurried lines in the street. — The whole pow,ilation hag passed the night in the middle of the streets. Of the merchandise, which the merchants had been obliged to pile up in the public square, a great part has been stolen. It is impossible at present to estimate the ex tenthwaares ngeotw tlaincge,rtehaedytrfeoarsuthrye,ctohleonareslecnotmanadndtihneghtohuisse district, whie of the loss. The church, the prison the national pa nothing more than a heap of ruins. In short, no one has escaped the calamity Wow, while we are writing, the fire is entirely extinguished, but the Au looks threatening, and we are afraid of more shocks. If un• fortunately our fears should be realized, there will be an end of the few houses remaining standing, and Gonaives will be no more. The first and peineipal shock lasted about five minutes, and was followed during the night by more than twenty others, which though not so violent, were equally fearful. It is now 8 o'clock in the morning. Not half an hour has passed since we bad another violent shock. The number of persons killed and wounded is not yet known. All the pri soners who were not buried under the ruins have escaped. God grant that, the capital may not have been aPlicted with a similar misfortune. CAPE HASTEN, Wednesday, 6 o'Clock in the Evening. — Most deplorable news is spreading throughout the city. It has been brought by Mr. Obas, son of the general command ing the District of Plaisance. In consequence of the earth quake which was felt here on Saturday evening Cape town has entirely disappeared, and with it two-thirds of the po pulation. The families which escaped this disaster have taken refuge at La Fasette, where they are without shelter, clothes, or provisions. Such is the news circulating in town, and which unfortu nately is probably too true. It is to be ,hoped, however, it will not be confirmed in its full qaent. It is said that the President of Hayti has given ,o,rders to the physicians and officers of health attached to the hospital, to set off this evening and give their assistance to the unfor tunate victims of this disaster. . Capt. Morris (of the brig Wm. Nelson, which brings the account), states in addition, that a few hours previous to his departure, a courier arrived with information that at Cape Haytien a fire succeeded the earthquake, destroying the re maining houses, the powder magazine, and the remnant of the inhabitants. St. Nicholas and Port Paix are said to be in ruins, and in fact all the towns on the north side of the island. According to a letter in the Journal of Commerce, but one inhabitant of the Cape, a Mr. Dupuy, was saved, all the rest being either crushed, or drowned by the sea, which rose and submerged the city, Fearful, fearful indeed, are the particulars of this awful visitation. Cape Ilytien, known as The Cape or Cape Francois, on the north coast, is the capital of the Republic, and formerly contained some 900 stone and brick houses, with a population variously estimated at from 10 to 20,000. It is situated on a Cape, at the edge of a plain between the sea and the mountains. The plain is exceedingly fertile, and intersected by broad paved roads, lined with lemon and lime trees. It is in lat. 19 46 N. anti lon. 72 16 W THE WEALTH OF ENGLAND (From a New York paper.) It is a common error in this country (America) to imagine that the riches of England are derived from and dependent upon her commerce ; and the influence of this great mistake is shown in the many wild suppositions that have been ha zarded, touching the effects of Our commercial and financial difficulties upon the financial and political condition of the wonderful little island. The truth is, that the merchants of England, with all their great capital and vast extent of ope rations, hold but a very small portion of the riches existing in that country ; and this can be made apparent by a few simple considerations. Look at the squirearchy, for instance ; the thousands and thousands of country gentlemen, with their comfortable incomes of three, or five, o: ten thousand pounds per annum, derived exclusively from the soil, and the enormous fortunes of the nobility. Estimate, if it can be estimated, the immense amount of treasure in the country, existing in the form of plate and jewels. Why, at a single dinner given in London, on the 18th June, gold and silver plate to the amount of a million and a half of dollars was exhibited at once : all the property of one individual—the Duke of Wellington. This celebrated personage could have relieved from all their difficulties all three of the great American houses, which have been com pelled to stop, simply by turning over to them his dishes and tureens, vases, and candelabra, without diminishing his income one farthing; and there are fifty ladies in London, any one of whom could have put Messrs. Brown and Co. in ample funds for all emergencies, merely by making them a present of her diamonds. Without taking the crown jewels into account, it is no doubt susceptible of proof that in London alone there are gold and silver plate and jewels to the amount of two hun dred millions of dollars, and it must be remembered that mighty as London is, the wealth of the kingdom in wrought gold and silver, is very far from being centred there. An im mense quantity of it is scattered among the castles and coun try seats of the nobility, such as Alnwick Castle, Blenheim, Chatsworth, Belvoir, Woburn Abbey, Bowood, and a hun dred others which we could name, and among the lovely mansions of the country gentlemen, with which the whole surface is dotted by thousands. Think of the libraries and galleries, the immense and almost priceless collections of pic tures and statues, and costly works of art, in which no coun try in the world is richer. Why, the whole mercantile wealth of England is but an item of comparatively trifling magni tude. The non-payment of debt, if it were not paid, which, thank heaven, it soon will be, so far from inflicting a mortal blow upon the prosperity of the kingdom, would never be felt ex cept as a handy theme for a sarcasm, now and then directed against republican honesty and honour. Duke of Bedford, or Northumberland, or or thou The fortune Devonshire, would clear the whole of it, and nobody but his grace be a farthing the poorer. At of, except the It is a curious fact, that many of the smaller shopkeepers in London are establishing a kind of rivalry among each other, by offering to take light sovereigns at the least loss to their customers. Thus, while one will take them at 19s. 70., a nother will take them at 19s. 9d. The profits made thus may . be a sort of counterbalance with a few shopkeepers to the inconveniences they are obliged to sustain, but it must not be for a moment considered as any mitigation of the real evil. THE TRIAL OF FRANCIS On Monday the eighth session of the London Central Cri ninal Court commenced before the Lord Mayor and the "J.."... 1.1.• ••• usual civic authorities. The Recorder, after some remarks on the other cases in the calendar, came to that of Francis for high treason, on which he made the following observa tions :—Although the charges were numerous and serious, still upon reference to the depositions he did not think they would find any difficulties in point of law as applied to the facts which would be adduced before them. But there was a case of high treason, which happily was not an offence of frequent occurrence, and which woald require from him a few observations with respect to the law of high treason, and to the particular offence which would be laid before them. The charge, as far as he was able to collect from the deposi tions, would be founded on the ancient statute of the 25th Edward 111., and also on a more recent statute of 36th George lII. ' c. 7. By the statutefirst alluded to, it was de clared to be high treason when a person imagined or com passed the death of our Lord the King; and that, he should also tell them, would equally apply to a Queen Regnant ; as an addition to the construction which has been uniformly at tached to a Sovereign, as laid down by Lords Coke and Hall, it had always been the custom to consider a Queen as coming within the meaning of the act, but in the 3d year of the reign of Queen Mary a special act was passed giving her Majesty all the privileges conferred by the former acts of Parliament ; therefore, all difficulty with respect to that part of the case would be done away with. The words of the act defined the compassing or imagining the death of the Sovereign, or any personal injury likely to cause death, as an act of treason, and, as Lord Hale justly observed, those words gave a very wide latitude, and referred, not only to the mind and will of the party, but also to the necessity that the intention should be exhibited by some act before the party could be justly accused of such an offence. They must, however, bear in mind that it was the intention that constituted the offence ; and although the act might, as was happily the case in the present instance, prove abortive, still the inten tion of the party in committing the act constituted the of fence, The law, therefore, required that the party accused orne overt act, s h ow i ng an i n t en tion should be attainted of to do personal injury. A later statute, the 36th George 111., cap. 27, confirmed the provisions of the previous apts of par liament, and also referred to the rules to be observed in the proceedings, and which entitled the party accused to have a copy of the indictment, and also provided that the case should be proved by two competent witnesses. It further granted that a sufficient time should be allowed for preparing the de fence of the accused, and likewise entitled him to have coun sel assiped to defend him, but none of those requisites would apply In the present instance, for by a subsequent act of the 39th and 40th George 111., it was enacted that none of those formalities should be complied with in eases of trea son where the overt act was alleged to be a direct and perso nal attack upon the Sovereign ; and that when a direct at tempt was made either upon the life of the Sovereign, or to do bodily inijury Bien the same course should be adopted on the trial as if the party was charged with murder, or at tempt to murder, under ordinary circumstances. The rea sons for the distinction made in such a case must be obvious, because, in any ordinary case of treason, some political ob ject might be inferred, or suggested, but nothing of the sort could occur where the offence was a direct attack on the life of the Sovereign. In investigating the case, therefore, they would have to regard it as one of an ordinary description, of shooting at, with a felonious intent,,and they would see how far the evidence went to support snuff a charge. He cer tainly felt some difficulty in alluding to the facts of the case, as all he could gather on the subject was from the deposi tions returned to the court, and he must therefore, request them, in the observations he was about to make, to consider he was laying before them merely a probable case, to which the law would have to be applied, and in adopting such a course he was merely following the example of Lord Chief-Justice 4hhop in the case of Arthur Thistlewood and others, who were Indicted for high treason. fie should, therefore, beg them to suppose that lie was puttipg a probable h ease to them, and they would hereafter act upOn the actual evidence which would be adduced upon oath before them. He pre sumed it would be laid in evidence before them, that on the evening of the 30th of May, as her Majesty was passing in her carriage at a rapid pace down Constitution-hill, a person leaning against the wall was noticed by one of the equerries ; the demeanour of that person attracted attention, and the moment her Majesty's carriage reached him, he was observed to draw something from his bosom, and immediately after wards'fire ors' a pistol. It would, he believed, appear that the pistol Was deliberately pointed towards her Majesty's carriage ; that it was actually discharged, as the report was distinctly heard, and the flash seen to proceed from it; and it would further appear, that at the time it was discharged the person was within a very short distance, not more, he believed, than seven feet from her Majesty, at least from that side of the carriage in which her Majesty was sitting. It would, however, appear that at the moment the pistol was discharged it was not pointed in a direct line with the body of the carriage, but more towards the hind wheels ; but that might probably have heep occasioned by the rapidity with which the carriage was prece4ding, or 'from the pistol hanging fire. There could be no doubt, hp beligved, of the identity of the person who so fired the pistol, and it certainly appeared to be a cool and deliberate act. There did not appear to be the least pretence for presuming the discharge of the pistol to be the result of accident, as all the witnesses agreed in describing the pistol to have been deliberately levelled. The witnesses, however, were not enabled to speak posi tivelisas .the precise direction in which the pistol was pointed, but A grea deal would depend upon the situation in which the respective witUsses atood, and the opportunity they would have of witnessing the ant. — They roust take all those matters into their serious consideration, always bearing in mind, as he had before stated, that the intention of the party constituted the offence, and that the fact of the pistol not doing any mischief had nothing to do with the question : if they were of opinion that the original intention was to do mischief, the case was complete, although the criminal intent was, most happily, pot carried into effect. It would appear that when the pripAer was seized by a constable who hap pened to be near him, and the pistol taken from him and ex amined, it was clearly seen that it bad' been recently dis chargeel i but still a qu estion would arise whether it was loaded in such a rnapuer, and with such materials, as would be calculated to do mischief or minty to the person of the sovereign, at whom it would appe.aftp have been discharged ; and with respect to that point, the preimus ppodect of the prisoner would be very important. If it should appear by the evidence that, on the day previous to the occurrence, the same person was seen at no great distance from the spot where the pistol was fired, and at the time her Majesty was passing, exhibiting a pistol and pointing it towards her, al though from some cause it did not appear at the time to have been discharged, and that at the same time be made a decla ration of a wicked intention, and his regret that he had not carried his intention into effect, it would be for them to say whether it was not a strong proof of his intention, by the act he subsequently committed, to do some serious mischief. ;f they also found that on the following day the prisoner was again seen waiting for the carriage, and that upon its appearance yi-ith'her Majesty he discharged the pistol, it would certainly be a fact strongly confirmatory of his intention to carry out the malicious intention express ed by him on tPif previous day. The chief inquiry would pistol was fired, and with then be, with w at lntentioP Ale what materials it was loaded. POW, that it contained powder there could be no doubt, and then it would by material to ascertain whether or not it contained a ball. The declaration by a party of an intention to do an injury was, beyond doubt, a strong proof that the pistol was loaded with such materials, and in such a manner, as to enable him to carry his object into effect. It would further appear that the per son who fired the pistol stood with hisback towards the wall, and discharged in the direction of the Green-park ; conse quentfY, unless the ball had struck some hard substance, it would be 'atmost impossible to have discovered it, for it might have lodged in' the earth without leaping any traces, and therefore the gircuinstanee of no hall having been found would not at all justify the conclusion that it did not contain one, and uppn that point they would refer to other facts of the case. In addition tp the fact of the decla ration of mischief expressed by sPesed on the previous day, he believed they would D ave the evidence of persons ex perienced in such affairs, who had frequent opportu nities of firing both ball and blank cartridges, and who would give it as their opinion, from the sound of the report, that at the time it was discharged the pistol was loaded with ball. It would be for them to decide, under all the circumstances, whether the pistol was fired' with the vile intention of injuring her Majesty, or with the still more dreadful purpose of taking her life— in fact,' did the accused Make a direct attempt to take the life of the Queen ? AbootlW;o'years since, unhappily, a case very similar in many respects to the' kesent occurred, and upon reference to those proceedings he should' in all prob ability be enabled to state the nature of the charge which world be preferred in the present instance. The prisoner would most likely be charged with compassing the death of Her Majesty by firing at her with a pistol loaded with ball. They would have to deal with the case as one of an ordinary character, where one person was charged with shooting at another with intent to murder, and they must look at all the facts and all the circumstances as the only means of judging what the actual intention of the prisoner was : they would bear in mind the declaration of mischief ; they must look to the spot selected for the commission of the act, and also the nature of the weapon made use of. Under all these circum stances, it would be for them to say whether it was not a case which they ought to send to be thoroughly investigated by a petty jury. In conclusion the learned recorder said—" It is impossible that any case can arise which demands more serious inquiry than this—it is an attempt to take away the life of our Sovereign —a Sovereign dear to us all—the pro tector of our liberties and our laws. Serious, however, as is the offence, still, op the other band, its heinousness ought not to weigh with you in taking it into consideration, and the only effect it should have should be to induce you to weigh every circumstance with the greatest minuteness. 1 again say I think it is a case which you will feel justified in sending for further investigation, and with these observations I remit you to your room to proceed with your duties." TO HIS GRACE THE MOST REV. JOHN MAC HALE, LORD ARCHBISHOP OF TUAM. Mr LORD,—A friend has just favoured me with an Irish copy of Moore's English Melodies, bearing your lordship's signature. I candidly confess that it never fell to my lot to read any production with greater surprise ; and the public will admit the cause of my a stonishment to be strong and na tural when they are told that I read my own work under another, higher, and more important impress. During some of the idle and leisure hours of my past life I strove to bring whatever talents I possessed in that way to bear on the sub ject, and whilst my ambition was sufficiently satisfied by sending some manuscript copies to a few of my literary com panions in Ireland, 1 could not expect that my version of the work would be palmed on the world under another name, much less could I b e lieve that any of my effusions could con stitute a gem for a crown which the tar-famed Hierophilos would deign to wear. Few of your subjects are more disposed to sustain your views on any occasion, or will more readily admit your un doubted right to talents of a sublime and brilliant order ; but I cannot conceive how the " poeta nascitur, non fit," or the inheritance of natural poetry would not be peculiar to more than one of the sons of the " Land of Song ; " and more in conceivable still is it, that high and towering genius w ould suffer itself to be sullied with the stain of plagiarism, *or con descend to shine in " borrowed plumes. Your grace will not, I hope, blame me if I inform the literary world that the original merit of that translation is exclusively mine, that I am prepared to establish this fact be yond the possibility of dispute, by documentary evidence of a convincing and unquestionable character. I had many reasons for not publishing them to the world ; and among my numerous arguments, none weighed so heavily on my mind as the melancholy truth that few, very few of the people of this ill-fated province could understand their tendency, or derive any consolation from their p erusal in a langua g e with which they are utterly unacquainted. * * * * ' If your grace composed a series of Irish sermons for the use of your clergy, your time would be usefully employed ; the clergy would be both edified and initiated in the Irish languages, and the faithful would be duly impressed with their moral duties, through your instrumentality. This would be a desideratum long wanted ; this would produce better fruit than Moore's Irish Songs, or the Heathen Mythology of Homer, or any other infidel writer. * Open then the doors of knowledge, too long barred against the poor, instruct the people in the use, of letters, and then, indeed, your grace can talk with some show of argument of acquainting the people of Ireland with their political griev ances, through th e me di um of Irish or English song, as either may suit your taste and attention. Until this be done, it is evident your grace's efforts must be fruitless, as they can no more be perused by the people than a Syrian or Syro- Chaldeac version of the same songs.—l have the honour to remain, yo ur l or d s hi p ' s very humble and faithful serva n t, JAMES O'MALLY, R.C.C., Ballinrobe i Dated the Kaleods of June, 1842.—Castleb a r Telegrath. COURT ETIQUETTE.—In the Insolvent Debtors' Court, on Wednesday, the following interlude was acted, as appears by a report in the daily papers the course of the morn ing Mr. Woodroffe, finding the heat most oppressive, di vested himself of his wig; and this innovation upon the forms of the court and the usage of the bar soon attracted the attention and observation of the chief commissioner, Reynolds. Mr. Woodroffe regretted that he should be liable to the animadversion of the court, but it he had inadvertently been guilty of an offence in violating legal etiquette—perhaps, when he said that he was labouring under a severe head-ache and inflammation of the eyes, occasioned, in the opinion of his medical attendant, by the extreme heat of the court, that might be considered as some apology; nevertheless, if it was insisted upon, he would wear his wig, whatever might be the personal pain and incon venience he might experience. The learned Chief Com missioner made some reply, which was not very audible. Mr. Woodroffe said that he would appeal to Mr. Hughes whether, when they were in the Court of Queen's Bench the other day, the Solicitor-General, some of the Queen's counsel, and even one or two of the judges themselves, did not appear without their wigs ? Mr. Hughes acquiesced in this statement. Mr. Woodroffe begged to say that he had just been informed by a learned friend (Mr. Cooke), that when such a departure from legal etiquette took place, the permission of the presiding judge was always previously asked and obtained ; but that being a bail-day, and not a case-day, he had thought that it might have escaped notice; but he never addressed the court without his wig—(a laugh) —and should not presume to do so, As soon as the cases were to be taken he intended to ask formal permission. The learned Chief Commissioner was content. If such things were permitted in the superior courts, a precedent was estab lished for innovations elsewhere, Mr. Woodroffe availed himself of the privilege of laying aside the badge of forensic wisdom during the day. ipptim inrelligvart.

SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 15 The supply of Beef to-day, was small. though it was quite adequate to the demand, and a little easier to buy. Of Mutton there was a fair show, and not much variation in price from last week, but it would, no doubt, have been much better to buy had not Lamb been scarce and very dear, and most of it sold up early. A few Sheep were left unsold at the close of market. Best Beef Gad to 7d, middling 6d to bid, Mutton 6d to 6id, and Lamb 7d to 8d per lb. BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, JUNE 15 During the present week we have had a very limited demand for Wheat, and all but the finest samples must be quoted Is per quarter lower. In Barley little passing; both the supply and wants of the trade being trifling. Beans and Oats are held for Is per quarter advance, which checks the sale for both articles. The weather continues hot and dry, though some parts of Shropshire, Cheshire, and Lancashire, have been visited by thunder storms, in a few instances of considerable duration. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JUNE 13. So favourable a season for Cattle, in one important point of view, as the present has not been known for some years past, but it is attended with after evils. The crops of Hay are in all dis tricts represented as very inferior, void of sufficient juice, and very thin, from the want of rain, and the under grass is exceedingly backward. The supply of Beasts this morning was rather short, consisting of 2,356, but large of Sheep and Lambs, the number comprising 30,210 head. Of Calves and Pigs the supply was an average one. From the excessive heat—a drawback to slaughter ing—the wants of the butchers were on a much more limited scale than ordinary. The trade consequently resumed its late dullness, and many head were turned out unsold. Prices are already at so low a figure, that an increased heaviness in the trade has no further depressing effect upon the prices. The rates of to-day were un altered from Friday last in all instances. LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 13 The supplies of grain to this port throughout the last week was moderate of all descriptions, with the exception of Foreign Wheat, of which there was reported 10,930 quarters ; the supply, however, was quite equal to the demand, and prices underwent little or no alteration. Fresh up to this morning's market the supply is again Short of both Wheat and Spring Corn, and the miller evincing a disposition to purchase fine qualities of White Essex Wheat, such descriptions are the turn higher than this day week ; for Kent, Red, or other qualities there is a slow sale, at last week's currency. The transactions in Barley are quite of a retail nature ; the supply is short, and prices remain unaltered. Oats are in steady demand, and fully maintain last week's prices. Beans meet rather a free sale, at an advance of Is per quarter from this day week. Peas are also in demand at prices about 1s higher than last quotations. For Flour there is an average demand at last prices. Tn other grain or seeds there is scarcely anything passia& %yorthy of uotice, but prices are fully as WEDNESDAY, June 15 The business has again been very heavy at the prices of the last market day, the sales principally to the retail trade. The weather continues to be favourable, particularly as rain has fallen in some quantities, that there is no inducement to movements of any speculative kind. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET. JUNE 14 Not much inquiry to-day, and the sales are not estimated at more than 1500 to 2000 bales, at yesterday's prices, with a steady market. The American news brought by the Aca dia is generally satisfactory, and in favour of cottwa main taining its position, if it may noc rather a lighter aspect. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JUNE 14. The small receipts of Wheat into this port up to Friday's market, have been considerably augmented by numerous ar rivals from the Mediterranean, and a few cargoes from the Baltic ; which, including several coastwise, chiefly from Lon don, and a little from Ireland, amount since this day week to nearly 30,000 quarters; whilst of other grain, the supplies fresh in are very moderate, and of Flop': clatmoal tri vial, 4n t 4 fa9e Qf a liberal supply of samples, and without any extensile buyers at this day's market, holders of Wheat evinced a greater desire to sell than of late, and all descrip tions of red declined 2d per 701bs. from the rates of last week : fine qualities of white also, were the turn cheaper, and the transactions on the whole very moderate. Having very little English or Irish Flour at band, such remained unaltered in value ; but foreign, duty paid, being in slow request, receded 6d. per barrel. Bonded Wheat ceasing to attract attention for the mo ment, no sales have 4anspiced to -day, and our quotations for :inch tilerefoTe remain unvaried ; Egyptian Beans, how eyef, *thane to meet an activeinciuiry, and about 6„oooqrs. Moie,'niideilock and afloat, have changed hands to,-day, at 225. per 480 lbs. Barley for grinding, and Malt, are rather dearer, and free Beans have realised a slight improvement. In Pease we have no change to note. Oats, upon a limited sale this morning. scarcely supported former prices ; and Oatmeal, with very little inquiry, was offered almost ineffectually, at an abatement of Is. per load. Intensely hot dry weather, from the 2d to the 12th instant inclusive, was followed by thunderstorms here early in the morning of yesterday, and some rain again about noon ; after which,the atmosphere cleared pp and di? drought to-day is OqtAlly Severe..
