LITERARY NOTICES. Bradshaw's Journal. Vol. 3. Parts 1,2, 3, 4. Walmsley, Liverpool. The success of " Chambers' Journal" induced many enter prising publishers to commence similar undertakings. Scarcely any of them have stood their ground for any length ened period—from what causes it is not for us here to en quire. Sufficient to say that Bradshaw's Journal has kept the even tenor of its way, successful and succeeding, and has at present a very extensive circulation. Nor is this tot be wondered at when we look at the quantity provided for he small amount of the price and the quality of the material. In the parts now before ifs there are as many clever articles and papers to be found as in any magazine of four times the price. Here we have in each part an average of 80 pages of neatly-printed, highly -interesting matter, and several first• rate engravings, illustrating the literary portions of the work, all of which are evidently written expressly for it. In part No. 1, we find •` Haddon Hall" and " Darwen Paper mills." In No. 2, "The Pier and Harbour of Leith," " Dublin Bay," and medallion portraits of Dalton, Bacon, and Newton. In Part 3, the illustration is " The Viaduct at Stockport." Part 4 are " Peel Hall," near Worslev—" Sack ville-street, Dublin"—and " Glen of the Downs," Ireland. Of the literary department we can speak with unqualified praise. There is an originality about the contributions, a freshness, a vigour, that cannot fail to be appreciated by the reader, be he either one that is fond of light reading, or more at home in the ponderous truths of philosophy. In part No. 1, we find some amusing letters from Mr. J. Critchley Prince, one of the I) , anchester poets, detailing his progress in a pedestrian tour down to the south of England. Several articles, by Laman Blanchard, enrich the pages—as well as excellent tales by different parties. The description of Dar wen Paper-mills will be found exceedingly well worth peru sal. There are twenty subjects in this part, the price of which is only id : Part 2is full of good matter : in this is commenced some extremely good articles on Ireland, in which the writer puts forth his views of men and things there in a style that may compete with that of the best writers of the day. " A few days in Ireland" is the title of the papers, and we recommend them to notice. A clever tale, entitled " Emily Herbert," runs through the number, which contains also a variety of other matter. Part 3 contains several very charming poems. In No. 4, the Irish papers are continued, besides an infinity of agreeable reading, both useful and amusing. In fact this periodical we can conscientiously re commend to notice, as one that for its cheapness is accessible to the poor reader, and for its originality and excellence of contents may lay claim to a place on the tables of the wealthy. How it is got up so cheaply and so well is remarkable. It emanates from Manchester, although published in London. Really Manchester quite gives us the go by in literary mat ters. Its poets are all talented, from Charles Swain down wards. We can show nothing like them. We safely recom mend Bradshaw's Journal to notice. PARIS CORRECTIONAL POLICE. (From the Gazette des Tribunaux.) A SPECIMEN OF THE PARIS SWELL MOB. Eugene Adolphe Lepartois is placed on the bane des accuses on a charge of robbery. The prisoner is a young man of a tournure assez distingue, and dressed with vise yrande re cherche. His hands are incased with pale straw kids of a dazzling clearness, and with his elegant double eye-glass he views the cow t and those around him with the easy well-bred air of a man who only waits the hearing of the case to esta blish his innocence of the charge which, by some strange accident, has been laid to him. Madame Montlouis, the complainant, stated that about 10 o'clock on the previous evening she was returning from a visit to a friend in the Rue Neuve de Luxembourg, to her own residence in the Rue Chauchat, when she was much an noyed by a young man following and talking to her. Finding that she would not reply to what he said, he made some re mark which much alarmed her, when a well-dressed man came and said to him, " How dare you insult the lady ? go on about your business, or I will make her cause my own." Upon this the fellow went away, and the other approaching with a tone and manner of the greatest politeness, well calcu lated to inspire confidence, said, " Permit me, Madame, to offer you my arm ; you may be again annoyed, and I shall not leave satisfied if Ido not see you out of danger." The bearing of the young man, the service rendered, and the fear of further insult, induced her to accept his arm, and as far as his bear ing was concerned she had no reason to regret se doing, for he was most respectful. Having arrived at the corner of the Rue Chauchat, she thanked him warmly for his kind ness, and intimated that she was at her own door. At this moment she felt a tug, and then another, and the next mo ment her gallant cavalier had taken to his heels with her watch and chain ; and, in spite of her cries for assistance, lie at first got clear off. but was taken at the other end of the street by three young men who were coming from the opposite direction. The lady having made her charge, he was handed off to the station. The thief was our elegant friend at the bar. _ _ President.—Was the watch found upon him ? Madame Montlonis.—He had thrown it into the street when apprehended, but one of his captors picked it up and restored it to me. President (to the prisoner).—What have you to say to this charge ? Prisoner.—What, sir, would you have me say ? I hare been made a victim to my own politeness, that 's all. President.—What ! do you pretend that you have been made a victim ? Prisoner.—Certainly ; I don't think I have much the ap pearance of a thief. President.—Do you then deny having stolen the lady's watch ? _ _ _ Prisoner.—l am incapable of such an act. President.—But do you recollect that the watch was picked up close by you at the moment of your apprehension? Prisoner.—This is the very circumstance which explains the matter. I suppose the lady's chain caught one of my buttons, and when I Quitted h pr broke, and let the watch tall to the ground. The Avocat du Roi here interposed, and said he had not interrupted the prisoner's line of defence, but he begged now to state, that he had already been six months imprisoned for stealing a watch at the exhibition of pictures. The prisoner said no more, but resumed his seat, biting the fingers of his straw-coloured kids, in evident chagrin at this aspersion on his character, and maintained an unbroken silence, while the President sentenced him to 12 months' imprisonment. FILIAL PIZTY. Ander Subiron, an old man of eighty-one, was charged be fore the Police Correctionnelle, with begging in the public ' streets of Paris. The prisoner, notwithstanding his great age, was a fine strong man, apparently in the full vigour of health, his brow unfurrowed by a wrinkle, and but few silver hairs scattered among his luxuriant black locks. President.—Prisoner, you are charged with the crime of mendicancy. Prisoner.-1 was acquainted with the person to whom I add): -.sed myself; and I wished to contract a small loan with him. I was not begging. (Laughter,) President.—Do not add falsehood to the crime with which you have been already charged. The officers watched you for some time, and heard yon beg of five or six persons ; but they did not apprehend yon until you had received six centimes from one of them. _ . An old man, bent and broken down with the weight of his years, at this moment advanced towards the tribunal. _ President (to the stranger).—What do you want here ? Stranger , — Monsieur , the prisoner is my father, and I come to beg that you will restore him to me. A murmur of astonishment ran through the court ; for the son, in fact, looked at least t7enty . years older than the father. Presiden t.—There is no excuse for begging; we will, how ever, hear what you have to say. Does your father reside with you? Stranger.—Yes, sir; I am a porter, and I have given him the little room which is allowed to me by my employer au cinquieme. President.—Why do you allow him to go out begging ? Stranger.—Oh, it is not my fault. He has no necessity to do so. He has as much food as I ; of wine more than I ; and of tobacco as much as he wants. President.—You hear, prisoner, what your son says. How is it that, wanting nothing, you give yourself up to begging? Prisoner.—Being unable to work, I have no money. President.—Why, notwithstanding your age, you appear to possess health and strength sufficient to warrant the belief that you could work. But you have no need of money, as Your son sees that you want for nothing. The Son.—l must tell you the secret, sir. My father has a passion, for which his age must plead some excuse. He is so fond of brandy, that he will drink ten or a dozen glasses a day. This I cannot afford to supply him with. My means will not allow it, and therefore it is that be begs, in order to indulge his passion for drink. Mais soyez tranquille, it shall not happ en aga i n : I will work harder, so that he shall have his petite goalie. President. —Your conduct does you honour, and it is to your representations that your father owes the indulgence of the court. 2' The tribunal then sentenoed the old man to twenty - four Hours'urs imprisonment, and the President addiessing him said , ". You shall to-morrow be restored to your son. Recollect that it is to his goodness of heart that you owe your liberty, and endeavour to reward his filial tenderness by better con duct for the future." SAVAGE MURDER IN JAMAICA. (From the Cornwall Chronicle.)

The deceased was a girl o f fourteen years old, called Maria Duncan, the daughter of a black woman, named Mary Duncan, living in this town. Four negroes have been appre hended on suspicion. ___--,.•••.....••••••••iff xi THE LATE RIOTS IN T HE POTTERIES,— Th e examina tion, of Ellis, for high treason, was resum ed on ue d s a uay w , a a s t Newcastle. The only witness examined during tle y w Mr. George Goodwin, cabinet-maker, of Hanley, n the , stated that on Tuesday, the 16th of August, be was e streets of Hanley, at two o'clock in the morning , n ear i ho Rev. Mr. Aitkin's house, which was then on fire, and ob served the prisoner, whom lie had known for a period of seven or eight years. The prisoner was within the area of the railings, and had his face blackened ; but he did not ob serve him commit any particular act. About 150 persons were present regaling themselves with wine, and many of them were lying about drunk. He afterwards met the pri soner about six o'clock in the morning, near the Royal Oak Inn. He had then washed his face and changed his appear ance, and was in company with a large number of persons walking four a-breast, with many stragglers behind, who proceeded in the direction of Burslem, with the prisoner at their head. He declined to make any defence, and the pri , soner was committed to the next Stafford assizes for trial, high treason. for the very serious charge of LIFE IN THE "BUSH" IN NEW SOUTH WALES. Emigrants to New South Wales, and those persons having relatives or friends resident in that colony, will be able to gather much useful information as to the manner of living among the settlers in the " bush" by perusing the following extract from a private letter : • " Sauamsingarnin. Macquarie River, March, 1842. "I have travell e d f rom M o l ong to W e lli ng t on , formerly a penal settlement for gentlemen convicts, who were there made to work at the hoe or other laborious work, in breaking up ground for the cultivation of Indian corn, tobacco, &C. At present the missionary establishment is carried on there, and there is a police office and a mounted police station. Wellington is situated on the side of a valley, surrounded by high mountains towering one above the other, and has a very picturesque appearance when the country round is all green, as it is at the present moment. There was a police magis trate at Wellington, but he bolted the other day for debt, and was dismissed ; so this large district is left at' the mercy of two or three just-asses of the peace, who bungle through the business in the usual style—granting summonses to men against their masters, and after dragging them 50 or even 80 miles, one justice only attends' who discovers that the business requires two, and so consigns the poor devils to gaol for a week or a fortnight until a sagacious colleague arrives from pleasure or business. " The missionary society was founded some years ago by a society in London `for the conversion of the heathen in foreign lands,' and is a most gross piece of humbug. It con sists of stores and stock and sheep stations, and an agricul tural farm. All the men employed upon these lands are white, with the exception of one black fellow called Big George,' who drives a bullock-team. A Mr. Porter is at the head of secular affairs, and a Mr. Gunter, a German, takes care of their souls—l mean the white men's—and very ill they are taken care of. Ido not believe the mission has ever converted a single black fellow, and, what's more, never will. Au old one has occasionally been taught to read and write, but they always return to their savage life. It is a good thing for Porter and Gunter, for, though their salaries are nominally low, they have the appropriation of large sums annually, and the sheep and other stock. Of course, if they really wished to convert the blacks, they would begin by em ploying them on their farms. My own opinion is that the blacks in this part of the country are so addicted to their own ways of living that it is quite impossible to convert them. As long as you give them plenty to eat and drink, with little to do, they will stop with you, and you are cowboune buggaree feller,' an excellent fellow ; but refuse them one meal and you are a b— rogue," their own ex pression. They are very useful in fetching your horses in a morning, and to run the track of cattle, sheep, or a white man lost in the bush. They are perfectly harmless (with the exception of stealing your cattle) in the districts which have been settled by white men any length of time ; but on the Darling, where my station is, and in many other wild parts of the colony, if they catch you alone they will settle you. " I had a very narrow escape a few months ago. I was just going to sit down to dinner. There were no blacks about the place but one, whose duty it was to look after the horses. A number of black fellows, however, it appeared, were fishing in a lagoon about a mile and a half from the hut. My black fellow came in, and I gave him his dinner. He squatted himself down on the ground behind me, close to a large nulla-nulla, or club, which I had noticed lying in the hut for two or three days before. I was just sitting down to my own dinner with the stockman and hut-keeper, when two strange black fellows, with tomahawks in their hands, came to the door of the hut, and at the same moment I heard a whip crack, and up gallopped two stockmen of the neighbourhood, armed to the teeth with muskets and pistols. Good morning,' said I, ' sit down, and get something to eat.'—' Stop,' said one of them, what are the black fel lows doing here ?'—' I don't know, indeed,' I replied.— ' Well,' cried he, you see that black fellow there behind you was to rush on you with his nulla-nulla, and those other two were to rush upon the stockman and hut-keeper and sink their tomahawks in their heads. The rest of the men were then to come up and take the rations and the blankets (I had cattle-tailing at the time—that is, men to follow the cattle all day, and put them in a stock-yard at night), take your head of cattle, kill them, and turn the rest into the bush.' Before he had done speaking, the black fellow in the hut addressed the two at the door, who thereupon bolted off and scampered away like kangaroos. I got into a tremendous rage, halt' mad that the wretch whom I had been feeding should be the first to turn against me. I seized a loaded pistol, backed him up in a corner, and speaking to him in his own language, said, Confess, you wretch, and tell me what you were going to do ?' He then told me that the other black fellows had been telling him to do it for a long time; that all the stockman had told me was true, and that they were to have taken the fire-arms out of the hut, and the ammunition, break them, and throw them into the river, and, after dividing the spoil and stripping us of our clothes, to set fire to the hut. Oh ! I was boiling with rage. I cocked the pistol, and was just going to shoot him, when the other man pulled me back, saying, For God's sake, sir, don't ;as sure as you shoot that black fellow you'll be hung, for it will he given out that there were five of us, and that you ought to have taken him prisoner.' Getting more cool, I began to think that their advice was not bad law, so we held a consultation and began to think of the trouble of dragging the villain 500 miles, the expense of prosecuting, and then what satisfaction ? The government is all for the d—d rascals, and they get blan kets and tomahawks, are taught the Lord's Prayer, and re turn to their tribes like Tommy Borreenai, who murdered poor Cunningham, the botanist. It is shameful, it is dis gusting. Our cattle are destroyed by wholesale. One set tler, about 50 miles from our station, has had 20 head of prime young cattle, mostly two-year-old heifers, killed by the blacks within the last six weeks; men have been mur dered in different parts of the colony, and yet if we shoot one of the rascals caught in the fact, we are to hang, for sooth, because a parcel of old fools, who know nothing about blacks, and never saw any except the half-starved miserable creatures who are now and then seen in the streets of Syd ney, are to dictate to us unfortunate devils who are living far away in wild districts, raising up wealth for the colony and the mother country, with no protection but our own right hands. Let the philanthropic old women who live at home at ease live where I have done, and catch a black fellow out, as I did, and see then if they would be against shooting the vagaband off-hand. God forbid the blacks should be pro miscuously shot ; but whenever a murder is committed or cattle slaughtered, the settlers in the district should be al lowed to form a jury of six or eight, with power to shoot the blacks if they resisted, and try them when caught, and exe cute or otherwise punish them on the spot on which the crime is committed. " I forgot to mention that my affair was found out through a black gin, or girl, who was living with one of the stockmen, and she, in colonial slang, `came it,' and told him just in time to allow him arm himself and gallop over to my hut with hi 3 mate. The poor girl was shortly afterwards murdered in the night. I love not yet found out the black fellow who did it; but when I do, whether legal or illegal, his death warrant is sealed. " On another occasion I had a very narrow escape. I was about 40 miles from my station, looking for cattle runs with our stockmen and a wild black-fellow we had picked up to show us the way. We travelled all day, and at night he de coyed us to sleep within half-a-quarter of a mile of his own tribe, about 200 in namber. They were encamped on the side of a lagoon. No sooner were our horses turned out than we heard them coming, and our black fellow did all he could to attract their attention. We seized him, however, and bound him, and placed one of the stockmen over him all night with loaded firearms, whereby he was prevented from communicating with his tribe, and we avoided the disagreeable necessity of being murdered in cold blood, as well as of losing our cattle. "To return to the missionaries. They give blankets and tomahawks to the black men once a year, and when a tribe comes, I believe they give them a feed of beef and mutton. They have a few black girls about the place, whom they have taught household work, and reading and writing; but with the exception of very odd instances the blacks will never stay long with a white man. In fact, the old men will not let the young men stop long with a white man; by young men I means those that have no gins. As soon as a black fellow gets a gin he must follow his tribe. Sometimes we can get a young man to shepherd a flock of sheep for so many moons for a ration and a suit of slop-clothing ; but as soon as he gets the things he is almost sure to bolt, leaving your sheep in the lurch, to get lost and scattered, and at the mercy of native dogs. " I have now with me in the Darling river a black fellow whom I feed regularly and clothe, as far as an old shirt and a pair of trowsers will go. His name is Tommy Lincoln, and I can depend on him as well as any white man. He tailed cattle for me for four months, and whenever he lost any he would tell me that he would go that way again next day and try to pick them up. If he wants to go to corrobora (native dance,) or out in the bush with his tribe for any time, he comes and asks my leave to stay so many nights, and invariably returns at the time fixed. This black once ran the trail of some cattle I had lost right through another herd, and found them and brought them home. On another occasion I sent him after a horse that had got away, and he ran the track of it for 25 miles, and never stopped till he found the horse dead at a water hole. I would trust my life with this black fellow, and have done it scores of times, but let him once get a gin, and I would not trust him more than another. " I like the country better than I did, because I have got more used to it ; but any young man who has been brought up as I have, gets completely disgusted. In every hut you enter in the bush the conversation is generally on disgusting and obscene topics. Drunkenness prevails to a dreadful extent among all classes, for although in the bush outside the boundaries the rum-keg only arrives once a-year, at shearing time, yet then it is a signal for all hands to turn to and get drunk as pigs. The women you meet in the bush are chiefly convicts, and their manners are outrageously indecent. You never bear a young man speak respectfully of a female; rnost men in the colony think there is no such thing as a decent virtuous woman. The natives (that is, the children of whites born in the colony) are as bad as the convicts or go vernment women, as we call them. They are taught all sorts of vice by these women as soon as they can walk. The little daughters of respectable people in Sydney, when sent out with the nurse, a prisoner, are often keeping watch' while the servants are prostituting themselves. The natives are generally fair-haired, tall, and very handsome. The girls are marriageable at 14, and old and ugly at 25, if they have been married and had two or three children. " The lower order of corn stalks (in colonial phrase) are noted as good horsemen, horse-stealers, and card-players. But many of them are very respectable people in their own way, fond of money, and take honest means to get it, as far as honesty goes in the colony ; but that is not far, for you are at perfect liberty to take a man in as much as you please; anything dishonourable in connexion with a bargain is not understood. If you can get hold of a new colonist, or new ' chum,' as they call them, and sell him stock at double the current price, you are considered a keen fellow ; the act is not considered discreditable, but, on the contrary, rather praiseworthy, — ' it only coming the new chum over him.' , " In union there is strength," as the toper said when he poured the brandy into his water."—Punch. TILE SUPERIORITY OF MACHINERY. A Mechanic his labour will often discard If the rate of his pay he dislikes; But a clock—and its case is uncommonly hard — Will continue to work, though it strikes.

A new work by " Box," under the title of " American Notes for General Circulation," in two volumes, is an nounced for publication in October. It is expected, that the Special Commission for the trial of the rioters in Staffordshire will be opened on the first of October. It is understood that Mr. Godson is retained for the Crown. Miss A.

In fact she looked just like any other tolerably good-looking lady that one might meet in a crowd, and pass by with the remark—' Not a bad looking gal that.' " On Monday afternoon her Majesty's ship Superb, of 80 guns, was launched from the Royal dock-yard at Pembroke. Her Majesty's ship Albion, 90 guns, one of the largest two decked ships ever built, was launched at Devonport on Wed nesday.

Bath was visited on Wednesday night with a most tremen dous storm, accompanied by thunder and some of the most vivid lightning that has been known for several years. We have not heard of any particular damage having been effec ted by it, either in the city or neighbourhood ; a boy, how ever, named William Foster, on his way home from Guinea land to Tyning-lane, was struck by the electric fluid, and was rendered blind for nearly two hours. We are happy to add that he has since recovered his sight.—Bath Herald. The following fact may give some idea of the losses which have been lately sustained in Leeds by the owners of cot tage property :—An extensive proprietor of tenements of this description has at present 130 houses, for which he receives no rent whatever, 46 of them being empty.

EXTRAORDINARY ROBBERY. Saturday last a robbery was committed in the house of Mr. John Tay lor, under the following singular circumstances :—Mr. Tay lor has two residences, one at Liecester and another at Bel grave. Having been attacked with illness, lie remained at the latter place till Saturday, leaving a girl about 17 years of age to manage during the absence of the regular housekeeper. In the night of Friday the girl arose, and proceeded to a room in which her master had deposited a sum of money ; breaking open a drawer she took 16 soverigns therefrom; and then cut her hair close off, so as to resemble that of a man ; she af terwards entered a room in which two or three men servants were sleeping, and putting on a suit of clothes belonging to one of them, left the house. The man to whom the clothes belonged, missing them upon rising, searched the house, and finding a quantity of hair that the girl had cut off, and the girl herself missing, he gave an alarm. Mr. Taylor, being made acquainted with the circumstance, caused information to be given to the police, who succeeded in capturing her, in her disguise, with the principal part of the property upon her, near Melton. She was immediately taken before a magistrate, who at once committed her to the quarter sessions. SUSPE CTED MURDERS.—On Tuesday, the 30th of August, an inquest was held before Richard Keogh, Esq., on the body of a female child, at the Fenaty Police Barracks, found by the police of that station, in a field in the neighbourhood, on the evening previous. It appeared in evidence that a girl of the name of Faghy was known to he pregnant. Drs. Richard Justain and Joseph Healy proved that they had examined the girl, and that she appeared to have been recently delivered of a child, and that the child in question was alive when born. The jury returned a verdict that the child had come by its death either from want of care, or violence, and that Jane Faghy was accessory thereto. She was committed under the coroner's warrant to Roscommon Gaol. The same coroner held an inquest at the church-yard of Kilgefin, barony of Bal lintober, on the body of Henry Naghten. The body had to he examined, and the proceedings were adjourned from the 18th to the 27th of August, and again to the 3d of September. After a most patient investion, and the examination of a num ber of witnesses, and on the testimony of Drs. James Lloyd and Joseph Healy, who had made a post inortem examination of the contents of the stomach, and proved to the presence of metallic poison, the jury came to the following verdict, "That the deceased came by his death in consequence of having taken a quantity of poison, and that his wife, Sally Naghten had administered the same." She was then committed to gaol under the coroner's warrant. Bills of indictment were pre ferred at Roscommon against this woman for having poisoned her sister-in-law, sister to her husband, about two years since, but were ignored.—Athlone Sentinel. EXPORTATION OF MACHINERY.—The following letter on this subject has just been received at the Manchester Chamber of Commerce " Office of Committee of Privy Council for Trade, Whitehall, Sept. 8, 1842. " Sir,—ln reply to your letter of the Ist instant, ad dressed to Mr. M`Gregor, relative to the exportation of machinery, I am directed by the Lords of the Committee of Privy Council of Trade to inform you, that my lords have recently recommended the Lords Commissioners of her Majesty's Treasury to grant permission to export cer tain classes of machinery, to which hitherto that permission has not been granted. Amongst the machinery for which permission has recently thus been granted is included ma chinery for the spinning of cotton and wool; and it is the intention of my wrds to recommend the adoption of the 1 ike course as respects all machinery for spinning and ma nufacturing the above, as well as other substances, except ing those which are used in, or applicable to, the spinning or manufacture of flax, tow, linen, or lace. I am, sir, your obedient servant, " JOHN GEORGE SHAW LEFEVRE. " Thomas Boothman, jun., Bsq." - - MELANCHOLY DEATHS BY DROWNING.—On Friday afternoon last, two young gentlemen, Mr. John Lloyd, se cond son of the Rev. John Lloyd, Rector of Aughrim Union, in the county of Roscommon, and Mr. Robert Marshal Day, second son of Mr. Day, the barrister, of Dublin, went out together in a small sail boat, on an excursion in the harbour, and a sudden squall, by which the boat was upset, having come on when they had nearly reached the village of White gates, they were both precipitated into the sea, and having, as it is thought, got entangled in the rigging, they, after a few unavailing struggles, sunk to rise no more. On the fol lowing morning, their bodies were found within fifty yards of the shore, and, in consequence of the ebb of the tide, with not more than five feet water over them ; and on Monday morning they were both interred in the same grave, in the cemetery of Cove; that as they were both called away at the same moment, and by the same manner of death, so their mortal remains might repose together in their parent earth. Mr. Lloyd was a student in our university, and in his 18th year; Mr. Day was educated for the joint professions of engineer and architect, and had nearly finished his appren ticeship to Sir Richard Morrisson. He was an elegant and ac :omplished architectural draughtsman, and had recently er•tered his twenty-fifth year. They were both most amiable young gentlemen, and of cultivated and engaging manners ; and the numerous sympathising assemblage of persons of all classes who attended their remains to the grave testified how generally ar.d sincerely they were beloved and regretted.— Dublin Evening Packet. THE PROPERTY TAX ON DIVIDENDS.—By a return made to the House of Commons, it appears the following is the annual amount of dividends upon stock and annuities from which the property or income tax has been stopped or de ducted at the Bank, for the half-year ending the sth July, 1842 :—Three per Cent. Consols, £10,799,875 13s. ' • New ; Three-and-a-half per Cents., £4,831,113 15s. 10d.

Lord John Russell appears regularly dismissed by the Ra dicals. He went with them as far as be could, and what are his thanks for the past? One of the leading Radical journals says—" If the rumour to which we have so frequently re ferred of late, that Lord John Russell has already intimated his intention of resigning the leadership of the liberals in parliament, be not true, there is one thing abundantly clear, namely, that it ought to be true. If we have not proved to Lord John's own satisfaction, we have, we are sure, proved to the satisfaction of everybody else, that he can no longer exercise the functions of leader of the opposition with credit to himself or advantage to the country. Nature never in tended the noble lord to play any prominent part on the stage of political life. He is, at a crisis like the present, intel lectually, as well as physically, unfit .for the leadership of a powerful party. When the Tories were prostrate and almost extinguished as a party by the heavy blow which the Reform Bill, immediately on its passing, gave them, the leadership of a person of Lord John's calibre might have been tolerated ; but the moment that a re-action had commenced, and every successive week saw the Tories swelling their minority of 150, it was high time the Whig lordling should be unceremo dheimat w er h , o and enlarged niously th rown over b oar d , an d a person chosen to succee d addition viewst mo r a a a l a s tcourage,statesman, superioran, should possess talents a s a a strong sympathy with the people —one, moreover, who, in behind the spirit of the age , s hould b e pre stead of laggi ng pared to lead the nation as well as the liberals in parliament in the onward road to further and far more extensive re forms." ANECDOTEvvbeads long been with unrivalled o F k G n o E v i o n a eoalnEe and a l an V dcm .' e s i at nt V edd r g s trl i al T ac te T . KO In p o a T s Ls GeorgeAi N g D la. and b lt o bowing to the myriads who assembled on all occasions during his Majesty's visit to Scotland, every individual felt that his Majesty's bow was particularly directed towards him. This delusion, the effect of his Majesty's graceful manner, ope rated in a greater degree perhaps on the worthy citizens of Dundee than on any otlIT of his Majesty's subjects. " His but I was huzzaing a wag. " His very Maj e sltoyudbloyw"e—d ,i to Ar m id e, gap s i a n y g s woulde?;;,:. said Majesty bowed particularly .to me, said„another ; " but I was standing in a very conspicuous placP. " Your figure, too, must necessarily have attracted his Majesty's . atten tion," said a by-stander. In short, every citizen of Dundee who' went to Edinburgh on this occasion had a special bow from his Majesty. A worthy maltster had placed himself in a crowd on a high wall fronting the road along whi c h hi s Majesty had to pass from Dalkeith to Holyrood House. In bowing his Majesty's eye operated as a gun-shot to the astounded maltster. " God bless me, he surely kens me," he ejaculated, and instantly fell backwards from the top of the wall to the ground, a height of ten feet. SECOND EDITION . Standard-office, Three o'clock. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tits DAY (From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.) The duty has again advanced on Foreign Wheat to 165., on Rye to 10s. 6d. per qr. ; on Flour to 9s. 7,1 d. per barrel ; upon Calonial Wheat to 35., on Rye to ls. 6d. per qr., and on Flour to ls. 91d. per barrel, with the prospect of these articles shortly attaining the highest rates payable from British possessions. Of English, Irish, and Foreign Grain, the arrivals into this port within the last three days have been unusually small ; and of Flour, scarcely more than about 4000 barrels from Canada and the United States. Notwithstanding the prevailing impression that the imports from abroad will not be repeated so extensively as heretofore for some time to come, and that meanwhile we shall have to depend principally upon supplies to be derived from the growth of this country and Ireland, the transactions here, in any department of the corn trade between Tuesday and to day, have been very unimportant, and the general quotations specified in our last circular barely maintained. Upon a very slender attendance of town and country buy ers at our Corn Exchange to-day, and more than ordinary indifference on the part of millers to increase their engage ments, we have to report an exceedingly dull trade for all descriptions of Foreign Wheat, which were decidedly easier to purchase, and had sales been practicable to any mate rial extent, somewhat lower terms would have been conceded. Of English Wheat no fresh samples appeared; the few small lots of Irish New, therefore, were mostly sold, yet not without submitting to a decline of 2d. to 3d. per 701hs. from the rates previously noted. States and Canadian Flour, being in limited request, were the turn cheaper. Having no English or Irish offering, prime marks would readily command late prices.

The sales of the week are 12,400 bales, of which 500 are for export, and 500 on speculation remain to the trade, which again have not brought nacre than half their con sumption. STEAM SHIP HINDOSTAN.—On Tuesday a grand enter tainment was given on board this vessel at Southampton. Sir J. Campbell occupied the chair, supported on his right by Sir E. Codrington and on his left by Sir J. Lushington. The Chancellor of the Exchequer and other eminent persons were present, and many suitable speeches were delivered. The unrolling of the mummy presented by the late Bishop Butler to the Museum of this town takes place on Thursday, and, as many ladies desirous of attending, we are requested to state that there will be nothing in the spectacle obnoxious to the most refined fernille delicacy,—We take the liberty of suggesting, for the convenience of those who intend seeing this very interesting process, and hearing Mr. Birch's lecture that they purchase tickets of admission before they go to the Shirehall to-morrow. The receipt of money at the door must necessarily retard the free egress of the public, and probably interrupt the proceedings.—Shrewsbury Journal. THE KING OF PRUSSIA.—It may not be generally known that the King of Prussia has had a gold medal struck in his own dominions for the purpose of presentation to the most distinguished artists who may come under his special appro val. It is of solid gold, weighing 20 dwts, and is very taste ful in its arrangement. On the obverse, in a concave centre,. ig nn precedent likeness in relief of his Maiessy, which is sur rounded by a broad border in dull relief, bearing emblemati cal devices of the arts. On the reverse appears the facade of an elegant Grecian structure, with Apollo in his car rising above the centre. This beautiful work bears the name et " Pfeuffer" on the reverse, and "Jacktman " on the obverse,. One of these has been bestowed, through the hands of Che valier Bunsen, upon Mr. Benjamin Wyon, in testimony of his Majesty's approval of the gold medal struck in comme moration of his visit to England and sponsorship of the Prince '- of Wales. This is the second mark of royal approbation re-. solved by Mr. Wyon from the Prussian dominions. STATE OF THE MANCHESTER DISTRICT.—There is little change since our last in the state of affairs in this district,. except that the partal resumption of employment at Staley-- • bridge, to which we then adverted, is now thoroughly esta blished, and the greater portion of the factories at Glossop,- Tintwistle, and other places to the south-eastoi Staley-bridge,. have also resumed. At Ashton, Hyde, and Stockport, little has yet been done in this way ; and at Manchester the fac tories remain in precisely the same situation as on Friday - last—the spinners being steadily at work, but the weavers generally refusing to return to their employment without an, advance. In several cases, we believe, they have offered to , come in, provided the slightest concession be made, their ; leaders being anxious to save their own credit by showing, that they bad gained something like a victory. In this, how ever, they are not very likely to succeed ; all the large mill- • owners steadily adhering to their determination not to give • any advance of wages which might hav e th e appearance of ' being extorted by the riotous proceedings of the 9th of Au-- gust, and consequently requiring that the workpeople shall resume their employment before any proposal for an advance j l can be even entertained.—Manchester Guardian. TEASING AN ELEPHANT. — On Saturday evening last, se veral gentlemen went into a wild beast show at Sheerness, some of whom began to tease the elephant which forms part of the exhibition, and which is not confined otherwise than by a short chain round one of its legs ; th e gen tl emen amused themselves for a while by offering the huge but do cile animal apples and other things, and when he extended his proboscis to receive them, putting them into their pockets again ; but not much relishing such sort of sport, the saga cious animal, taking an opportunity when several of his tor mentors were in a cluster near him, extended his trunk, and with one swoop laid seven of them sprawling on the floor, who, not knowing what the next evolution of the "perfor ming elephant" might be, began to call out lustily for the keepers, but their presence was not needed, as Leviathan seemed quite satisfied with having laid his tormentors pros trate at his feet, kicking about to get out of his reach, whilst the wives and daughters of some of the party were going into fits, and the company generally rushing towards the place of egress. All the gentlemen who were knocked down by the elephant escaped free from harm, except a good fright, which they will, no doubt, remember should they ever enter ano ther wild beast show.—Kent Herald. SERIOUS ACCIDENT.—On Friday afternoon, as three of the workmen employed in pulling down the county jail were engaged in demolishing portions of the east side of the House of Correction, the iron supporters, with part of the upper or second floor balcony, on which they were standino., gave way, and they were precipitated among the building materials on the ground, which was many feet from the balcony. The crash was tremendous, and on the officers of the goal and the workmen on the premises going to the spot, they found the three unfortunate men buried under a mass of the fallen building materials. They were immediately extricated ; two of them, we regret to state, are so dreadfully bruised by the fall, that it is feared one of them cannot recover, as he ap peared almost lifeless when taken up. One of his companions has also sustained many, though it is hoped not fatal, injuries. The third man only received prompt surgical aid. [Since writing the above we hear that one of the sufferers named Henry Sparks, died soon after admission into the hospital; both his legs were dreadfully fractured. William Stevens has sustained concussion of the brain, and is in much danger. William Holley is suffering from injury to his legs, but not of a serious nature.]—Berkshire Chronicle. THE Two THOUSAND POUNDS ROBBERY..—A full de scription of the persons suspected of committing this robbery at Preston Guild was forwarded to the various police stations in the metropolis. At a late hour on Saturday night a per son of the name of Stowell, who resides at 4. B o wling-green= street, Kennington, informed police-constables Murray and Winch, Nos. 119 and 140 M, that he was in Preston on the day of the robbery, and that he had traced the suspected person to No. 3, Hercules-buildings, Lambeth, whither the two constables instantly repaired, and succeeded in capturing a mqn and a woman. The former gave the name of Jovel, the latter Elizabeth Bailey. The female was instantly identi fied as being the person supposed to have committed the robbery ; she went with the male prisoner to an accommoda tion-house a few miles from Preston, where she dropped one of the stolen notes. Both prisoners were sea rched ; on J ovel was found a flash note for £5O of the " Bank of Engraving," but none of the stolen notes were found on either, the opinion being that they have banked them. APPREHENSION OF ONE OF THE ENGLISH STRIKE DELEGATES.—A few days ago, Captain Richardson, of the Gorbals police, received a communication from London, dicating the presence in Glasgow of a person named Ellis one of the agents through whose exertions th e workm en o f; Burslem, in Staffordshire, had been induced to join in the late strike for an advance of wages. Whether Ellis intended to pursue the same tactics with the men of Glasgow, or had merely fled to this quarter for shelter from the effects of his improper conduct in Burslem, it is impossible in the mean time to determine; certain it is some of the London authori ties considered his arrest of great consequence to the pe ace of the country, as, in addition to the intimation received by Captain Richardson from one of the inspectors of the London police, an officer was despatched to Glasgow on a special mission to discover his whereabouts. The services of this messenger, however, were altogether unnecessary to the apprehension of Ellis, as Captain Richardson, on receipt of the above letter, took such measures as to have him in cus tody shortly afterwards. The prisoner was discovered, em ployed in Annfield Pottery, at the east end of Gallogate street, and on Thursday was quietly, handed over to one of the English police,_ with whom he i s now on his way to th e scene of his misconduct. It is said that Ellis, who is a m an of talent, addressed the mob immediately before the burning of the minister's house in Staffordshire. Ellis is a tall lean figure, six feet in height, about 33 years of age, and rat h er talkative. During his employ in Annfield Pottery letters and papers came to him in another name.— Glasgow chronicle. 'billing Entellignirt. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13.—Wind N.N.W., light.

Price per quarter, Wheat, qrs. ig 6 Oats, „ 149 BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET. SEPT. 14. During the present week new English Wheat has realised an ad vance of Is to 2s per quarter, hut the improvement did not extend to foreign. In Barley or Beans little passing, and no alteration hi price. Irish Oats could not be sold without submitting tc a reduc tion of 6d to Is per quarter. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, SEPT 12. The accounts from the grazing districts are good, all other fears respecting an insufficiency of grass enterely disappeareel from the abundance of rain, which It apFears has been general throughout the several connties. The continuation of cold weather keeps up the demand for an increased quantity of meat by the butchers, and the farmers are by no means backward in their purchases. Although the supplies to-day were good in number, clearances were again readily made at fair prices. Beef did not vary in price from last market-day'a rates, but Mutton, Veal, and Pork did not maintain the advance then noticed. Lamb likewise receded about 2d per stone. The rates, however, compared with those latterly realized arc good. Importations of Foreign Cattle from various parts con tinue on an increasing sale. The quality is various, some being of very superior description, and others much below the inferior kinds of home produce. (Per stone of elb, sinking the offal.) LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. SEPT. 12 . - The supplies throughout last week were moderate of English and foreign Grain, and the demand being tolerably brisk for each des cription, prices rallied to the extent of 3s to 4s per quarter on the former, and from is to 2s on the latter. To this morning's market the supply fresh up is very small of English, and the quality being generally fine, added to a brisk demand, Wheats have been taken off at an advance: of 3s from this day week, at which the stands have been cleared. Foreign Wheat is from is to 2s dearer. Barley is inquired after, and fine descriptions of new malting have realized 32s per quarter; the supply, however, is but moderate. Oats are fully as dear for good quatities, but light and inferior are still difficult of sale. The supply of New Beans has been more abandaut, but prices have undergone no alteration. White boiling Peas are in demand at fully the terms of last week, and in some instances is advance has been obtained. Maple Peas have made 34s per quarter, and common Hog ditto 31s to 32s per quarter. Winter Tares are inquired after at an advance of 3s per bushel. The seed trade is very firm of all descriptions. Mustard and Canary Seeds rather looking up. In Flour or other artieles we hear no alteration. WEDNESDAY, September 14. The market has been very firm this morning at the pricer of Mon day, but though the supplies of Wheat are not extensive, and the samples remarkably fine in quality, no further advance can he ob tained. There is a good supply of Oats, of excellent quality, but this article appears to be only dealt in for the retail trade. The duty on foreign Wheat reached 14s per quarter on Thursday last, but what will be the further advance to-morrow, is a subject of con siderable doubt, but 17s per quarter will probably be the duty for the ensuing week. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, SEPT. 13. Since our report of this day week, the fresh arrivals of Wheat from abroad are rather liberal, having about 11,000 qrs. to hand from the Baltic and Mediterranean ; we are also mo derately supplied with Canadian and States Flour, the latter of which, at the present rate of duty, is partly being placed under bond : the imports of new Wheat, Flour, and Oat meal from Ireland are at length rather on the increase, and in a week or two hence we may expect a more regular and extensive supply ; but until the list few days produce from that direction has come forward very tardily, and only in limited parcels, which have been taken by the dealers as they arrived. During several days last week the weather was wet and unsettled, but it now exhibits an improved aspect ; with a few trivial exceptions, however, the grain crops immediately around us are secured, and although distantly, in late situa tions, much corn remains out, the rains, so far as they affect this locality, have been favourable. Stimulated by the advance in London, the trade for most descriptions of Foreigh Wheat opened this morning with higher expectations on the part of holders ; but the millers refusing to comply with the improved rates required, the currency of this day week was in few instances exceeded, and the transactions, consequently, were only upon a mode rate scale.—Good Irish new Wheats, on the contrary, in the absence of an adequate supply, realised an amendment of 2d to 3d per 701bs, and English new supported our quotations. LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, SEPTEMBER 13. To-day has, as usual, been rather quiet ; the demand has not exceeded 1200 or 1500 bales of all descriptions at yesterday's prices, with a very steady market. Holders do not press their Stocks, and this gives a degree of firmness not generally perceptible in so quiet a market. COTTON MARKET, SEPTEMBER 15 We cannot notice any improvement either in the demand, tone, or feeling of our Cotton market. Yesterday, business amounted to 2500 bales, and to -day, 2000 will be the utmost extent of it. Prices of all descriptions are without and may be quoted as firm. The quantity of Cotton on show is not large, and buyers have not the selection they generally have in a fiat and quiet market. SALFORD CATTLE MARKET, SEPT. 14. The supply of stock was rather an improved one, and the quality generally a fair average one. The best beef supported previous rates, but inferior was dull sale, and lower. Of mutton the same may be said, and at the close of the day little left unsold. DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, SEPTEMBER 10. There was a large supply of all descriptions of Grain, and the quotations of last market day were fully maintained, and in some instances higher prices were obtained. Both Flour and Oatmeal are without any material change, but less difficult of sale :—White Wheat 26s to 2gs, red ditto 22s to 275, middling and inferior Igs to 22s ; Oats 6s to us; Barley 12s to 15s ; Bere gs to 11 s. First Flour 17s to 20s, second ditto 14s to 16s, inferior seconds lOs to 12s, thirds Bs to 8s; Oatmeal lOs to 13s. TIDE TABLE. Days. Mrn. Eon. Height. Sundays, Holydays, H. M. U. M. F. I.
