MUSICAL FESTIVAL AT DUSSELDORF. • (From the'Musical WOW.) MENDELSSOHN'S NI VW ORATORIO, .~' ° ST. PAUL."-BY CHARLES X LINGIOJANN. On the 22d of May last, and the following day, the musical festival at Dusseldorf took'plae. Its most prominent feature was Mendelssohn's new oratorio, St. Paul, performed for the first time, the composer's first great work in this style, and it . fully answered the high expectations which his fame had raised.' The text is, fig the greater part, literally scriptural, and tells, in the simple language of the Bible, often with St. Paul's own words, the apostle's life, from SL Stephen's martyrdom and Paul's persecution of the Christians ; his conversion, his going forth to the Jews and Heathens, and the persecutions he suffered, till the moment when at last he leaves his congregatitin at Ephesus to meet certain death. These different elements the composition introduces to the hearer, varied in expression, rich in'its details, whilst the whole moves onward in strong unity. As resting points,ittoin' time to time, the chorales come in; a glorious-feature 'of the Geiinan oratorio, of which Bach and his'Sucl;essors have always availed themselves with the greatest iictess.. ll,lendeksohn 'has given them an important part in his work. They remind us of the chorus in the Greek tragedy, pointing, like them, from the indi vidual occurrence to the general law, and diffusing a calmness through the whole. So the overture itself (which, from a solemn organlike introductien,.passes over into a broad, more and more expanding fugue,) is based upon the principal choral of the first part. 'l'he trombones, which forni.as it werea chorus by them selves, stand oat in strong relief: whilst thefugue proceeds, with the phrases of :that choral, in canto fermo. We hear from St. Stephen's niirtyrdom. The false witness (a duet of two - bases in hanone,) and the.angry accusing chorus of the people farm a wild contrast to the 'soft strains of St. Stephen (tenor,) defetidiug him Self, exhorting the multitude, and bewailing the fate of Jerusalem. But the Chorus of the unrelenting people calls, "Stone trim!" 'He dies. The whole part of St. Stephen is of the 'most touching beauty. A soft choral is followed by a chorus in Eflat major, witleari undulating figure in the violins, and an expressive melody in the basses; then a Lament; touching and comforting, as becomes a martyr who has triumphed, which presently dies away in 'a quiet ritor nello; when a new scene opens. Saul is introduCed. In the spirit of persecution, he says "An nihilate them, 0 Lord!" But on his way to Damascus he hears the voice from above. Only the soprani and alti, acCompanied by wind instruments, render those unearthly sounds', in• strange chords, coming as if from a great distance. A chorus in C ma jot follows tire vision, which above all is magnititent. It begins piano, with the drums alone, which are gradually joined by the instruments; thus rising and swelling, it reaches the forte, where, with all their might, the voices fall in, " Arise! let there be light!" a call worthy of the great apostle; and an irresistible voice goin, forth to all the world. This chorus is iminediately succeeded by a choral of equal power and moment, " Awake !" the same which in the overture the trombones had as a canto fernm. Here they assist the . full swell of the congregation with a chorus of their own. In a chord they take up and terminate each line of the hymn according to its words: "Awake, so says the voice of the watchman on the battlements." Fur awhile the choral continues, and the trombones remain silent; till, near the end, they return with increased splendour; the seventh is added to the former chord ; and voices, orchestra, and chorus of trombones, uniting iu one flow of harmony, bring this Piece to a sublime conclusion. This chorus and choral form the brightest point of the oratorio, which mai ks the advent of the new time and the new faith, to gether with the vocation of the apostle. The repentance and conversion of Paul form a soothing coun terpart to the last sublime chorus. He thanks the Load in pious submission, and the chorus answers—" For the Lord hath said it," in a strain so full of consolatiou'aud comfort that no doubt remains of his forgiveness. The recitative . announces this. Paul recovers his sight, is baptised, and now; as the faithful &ma ven; praises the Lord in firm and full reliance. A sPlendid chorus, of the same confident character, terminates the'fint hart. The second part begins with a great triumphant fugue :—" The earth is now the Lord's ;" unfolding all the.riches and mysteries of science. This ghirious message cannot be spread far enough, cannot be said often enough—in all the forms and variety of expression which the art can command you rear this one prupo sition. The vocation of St. Paul and Barnabas is next announced. A duettino for two bass voices follows :L-" So are 'we now mes sengers in the natne'of Christ ;" simple and transparent, like the Hymn of Pilgrims, tying the sandals under their feet for their long journey. A chorus, six-eights—" How lovely are the messengers of peace," resounds in pure sweetness and joy fulness; though it grows to a forte at the words, "Their sound has gone out into all lands;" yet the whole retains a soft sub dued tone, like the gladness of the shepherds. Farther it is re lated bow they preached the word of God; and an aria (soprano) sings of his grace. Up to this point all' in the second .part is instinct with joyfulness and sunshine, like a spring of the new faith. But the jealousy of the Jews awakens; in their stubborn hearts, and in the austerity of their ancient law, they shout,. "So saith the Lord; lam the Lord. They pursue St. Paul. Another chorus begins, whispering, inquiring, with an almost dramatic effect. "Is this not he, who, &c.," and ending; full of wrath ; " Away with him." A choral prays for the enlight enment of those that walk in darkneSs. Paul addresses him self to the heathens. But these, after the wonder at LYstra, be lieve the apostles •to be gods, dud begin to adore them: "Be gracious to us, mighty gods." And, like Jew's, are stubborn and perverse : so the heathens sing in strains; betraying the sensuality and voluptuousness of their mythology. The chorus and orchestra take a peculiar character, alluting- and lovely, but strange and illicit. The apostles, in anger, hasten among the multitude, exhorting them to desist from their error, and, in the apostle's own sublime words, the music tells them, "Know ye not that ye are the temple of God ?" A 'chorus and choral 'ensue, expressive of the saute feeling; not austere like that o f the Jews; not alluring like that oitheseathens', but in thejoi ful and firm reliance or faith in the true doctrine. After this a combined chorus of the JeWs and heathens, rag ing more wildly and fiercely than before, sets in. The worst persecution begins; they shout, " Stone him !" but the Lerd comforts him. A mild consoling aria (soprano) holds out the promise : " Be faithful unto death, and I will give you the crown of life ;" and a choral elevates the mind to the hope ofa brighter futurity, and the triumph of the true light. Finally, the last division relates how Paul, guided by the spirit, declares his in tention to go to' Jerusalem, to meet assured danger and a mar tyr's death; how he resists the entreaties of his congregation, and, after having comforted and blessed them, leaves them fot ever. There is no catastrophe; with the apostle's own Words to the glory of God, and a mighty chorus concludes the whole: Such is a hasty sketch of the work. The style in which it was executed it would be almost impossible to define. No com parison with known models could assist us; for tae work has created its own style, in the pure expression of nature and truth. A style without effort without aiming at showy effects; with out invention for striking out of unheard-of harmonies, or over loading 'the orchestra with noise and brass. The subject itself (the great theme of the text)is irresistibly and yet quietly brought honie to our minds. Therefore, the whole bears the stamp of calm grandeur and pure beauty. Hence it is always in character; never difficult or complicated, but always flowing, clear, and intelligible. The mastery over all the means is un equalled; none, either in combinations of harmony or in instrn mental effect, are 'excluded but they are used rfparitigly; May as the situation requires, and as means to a higher end. 'And' thus the composer could give himself fully and freely up to the desi_gu of the work, which is now so v i v id an d tran s parent that -we lose sight of every thing belongi ng t o s c i ence, study., and means; and the artist's pure and beautiful conception; iii its genuine vigour and freshness, is conveyed direct to thensind of the bearer. SO great a work could only have been accomplished by a composer who has, like Mendelssohn, from early youth, studied and worked zealously and honestly, and so preeared with a rich genius' and a pure mind, devoted years of conscientious, unre mitting labour, to the solution of the difficult task. The performance of the oratorio was glorious • never did I bear such chorus singing. The orchestra consisted of 172 per formers, and the chorus of 364—total 536. Of these were 106 'soprani, 60 alti, 60 tenori, 108 bassi. All these singers, with the exception of the solo singers, were amateurs, as also the greater number of instrumental performers. It is this eireutn stance which gives to the festival its peculiar excellence and beauty. From all the neighbouring towns and the whole country round the dilettanti were gathering, arriving in steam-boats and . eiltiagen (diligences), and coming, not to toil at an irksome, ill-paid task; but for a great musical field-day, full of soul and song. All ranks and ages uniting for the one harmonious end. I saw a venerable friend, at the green age of seventy-five, sing ing his tenor part in the chorus with the enthusiasm with which 'in his younger days, at Vienna, he had listened to the perfor mance of Mokart's Zauberflote. A p ar ty o f s i x ty am at eurs arrived with the steam-boat from Cologne, singing songs in four parts all the way. Add to thii love of the art, ,a the good train ing, well-cultivated taste, and a genera l knowledge of music, and it is esiplained how they produced such an effect. You felt the life r the- pulsation of this music; for their hearts and their understandings w ere i n it. I t was here, in this chorus, and in this _band, that p u bli c op i n i on res id ed; the audience listehed, and enjoyed, but the amateur perforiners really constituted the festival. But what exertions, what patient and indefatigable rehears ing, before the whole reached such glorious perfection. Ad- , 1 mirable as their director, Mendelssohn was, in his unceasing. attention; so admirable were both baud and chorus in unflag ging zeal and steady improvement. At the last great rehearsal, after several hours of severe practising, Mendelssohn, had, -during the pauses, some orchestral passages repeated ; and amongst them the introduction to the favourite chorus in C. He left off, but all the performers called tor the whole chorus, and they saug it once more, with un a b ate d fire, for their own pleasure it not excellent, was . always respectabl e , The solo singing, Mines. Fischer-Achten and Graban, and the tenor, Schmetzer, from Frankfort, gave general satisfaction. The whole oratorio lasted about two hours and a half. Whatever applause, under the shower of flowers and ear lands, was, at the conclusion, bestowed upon Mendelsso'hn, his principal reward must have been to see his conscientious labour understood by his countrymen, and the spirit of truth and devout feeling iu which he wrote imparted to all the per formers. The second day's concert bad for its principal object Beeth oven's last symphony in D. In this country it is known snore by hearsay than in reality. Those who are afraid of bringing it in all its power before the only competent audience, that of the Philharmonic Concerts, may learn for their encouragement that, with a few days' severe practising, under a patient and in telligent director, the Dusseldorf band (brought together from all quarters) performed it with wonderful effect and precision. The first three movements, entirely instrumental, and instinct with that characteristic fancy, and strange, vet rich, originality of Beethoven, are, nevertheless, clear and intelligible through out, as much so as any of his latter symphonies. The last movement, with the chorus, from the beginning of the recita tive, maybe less so; the mixture of the instrumental and vocal; in a symphony, may he objected to; the voices may be thought not to have been treated in the true choral style; we may even consider the whole finale to be an incongruous, wild composi tion; but still it is Beethoven's—still it is lull of the most splen did ideas and passages, and the mind retains, as it were reluc tantly, strong and lasting impressions of this huge, gothic fabric of sound. The work of such a master, even where we cannot completely enter into his intentions, ought always to command our profound respect. The rest of the concert consisted of Mozart's " Davide Peni tente," and a psalm of Hendee. The former cont tins some her fine an beautiful choruses. Madame Fischer-Achten did full justice to worthy d very affective part. Of Handel, something more HDof his name might have been selected. interest' ;as the unknown overture to 4onore. It ap east that Beethoven wrote three overtures to the opera of Fide ie ; firi t ; k now , and vier t i ti o e one alluded to, in C major; then one in C, that in E, nova ror:ed at the Philharmonic concerts; and lastly thi „ 4sec,ed with the opera. A fourth is still said to exist; but one question i s y es ; 1 0 be only a sketch of the first. The the wild eccentric one wiser' shi n i ng w i t h a m ild er li ght than :V.

The imzovt;ilseedoorn the Tuesday probribly the only one it ever had. viayed; a t t;l i rio were se a welcome opportunity of comparing them. Mendelssohn, and his excellent leader, M. David, played. ffeettiiiven's Grand Sonata in A, with a violin accompaniment, (dedicated to Kreutzer,) both without having rehearsed it, and without the music thus imparting to this difficult composition the tire and freedom of an improvisation. The room was again crowded as it had been on the two nights of the feetival, and on the two great rehearsals. It may be interesting to state the price of admission :—A ticket for both nights of the festival, cost 3 Thalers, or 95., for one single night, 2 Th. or 65.; for the morning concert, 35.; and fOr each rehearsal Is. The neat town of Dusseldorf was full of bustle anti animation during the three days. The hotels were overflowing, and their tables-d'hutes,,spread over a long range of rooms, could hardly. contain all the gaeSts. Few private houses were without their visitors from neighbouring places. A. ball and public dinner cOncludedthiS ga:y season of a week. The whole arrangements for'ihe festival were under the ma nagement of a 'committee of resident gentlemen, who gave general and deserved satisfaction. :though, by unforseen im pediments, an unusually short time hail remained for their preparations, yet everything went off with the most perfect order and the greatest decorum. Of their zeal for music of the highest order, and their competent judgment, the circumstance of their iNviting 31eridelsSohn to become their conductor, and their selecting.two such compositions. as the oratorio.and the choral symphony, a ff ord the most convincing proof. .It is a leading principle with them that each festi'val must contain a nets feature. GRAND CONSERVATIV FESTIVAL IN ESSEX. On Tuesday evening a grand conservative festival-was given at Chipping Ongar, Essex, to T. IVArarriston and G. Palmer, Esqrs., the members for the southern 'division of the county. The festival took place under-a superb marquee in the grounds of Mr. Potter. John Round, Esq , presided. About three hundred electors were present, and among those present we obserVed Mr. Bramston, M.F., Mr. Palmer, M.P., Quintin Dick,-M.P., Horace Twiss, M:P., Sir • Ralph Palmer, and a great number of the most influential landed proprietors and gentry of the county. The usual' loyal toasts having been drunk with enthusiasm, . The Chairman gave " The Army and Navy,'/ in a brief and excellent speech.—Drunk with loud cheers. I'he Chairman, in rising to propose the next toast, said he was proud of the:opportunity of being placed in a situation to testify his cordial respect for the ministers of the established church. ( Hear, hear.) He would propose to them to testify their respectful feeling towards the church by drinking to " the health.ofthe Bishop and the Clergy of the diocese," who bad this day honoured th e m with their presence. (Cheers.) Dr.. Barrett, in rising to speak to the toast, begged to thank the rueetin;r, for .the powerful testimony they had just given-of the efficient duties of the clergy of the church of England. It was their happiness to belong to a church that was the glory of their country, and the foundation orits constitution. Wear and cheers.) " The health of the Lord Lieutenant" having been given, The Chairman rose to propose the health of " the Members for the Southern Division of the County of Essex." (Cheering, which lasted for several minutes.) He was well aware, be sail, how warmly.such a toast would be received; and he felt hots; inadequate his talents were to pay a proper tribute of respect to those gentlemen to whom they (the electors) had de legated the most important of national trusts, and who had fulfilled the duties of that trust honourably and most satisfac torily. (Cheers.) Mr. Brainston rose to return thanks, and was some time before he could be heard in the deafening plaudits with which he was received. Would to God, he said, he was gifted with that extraordinary talent which was rarely bestowed but on favoured individuals; to address them in language adequate to the occa sion, and also of the grateful feelings that he now entertained— of his extreme and devoted gratitude for the manner in which they had beets pleased to receive the notice of his health as one of their representatives. (Cheers.) He should only beg that gentlemen would be pleased not to estimate the depth of his gratitude from the feeble manner in which he was able to ex press himseif. (Hear.) However aware of his deficiencies in his conduct as one of their representatives, still the warmth with which his health had been received showed him that, to a cer tain degree, they were satisfied with the manner in which he had attempted to fulfil the trust they had reposed in him. The electors Sent him, as the chairman had told them, to the House - of Commons to support—as well he might—the mi nisters who then directed the energies of this mighty empire. He endeavoured, as far as he could, by his voice and by his vote, to advance the interests of that administration; but, from a va riety of circumstances which no man could ever have imagined -;—by a combination of parties whom none would have ever sup posed would have coalesced—(Hear, hear,) the destruction of 'that administration was effected—( Hear, hear.) He could not say that the confidence which he had reposed iu that ministry he had continued to its successors—( cheers) ;—for though he could Conscientiously state that it had been his endeavour, as it had alWays been his object, during . the time be had had the honour of being one of the representatives of this part of the county, to afford no factious opposition to the measures of government; so on the other hand, he should feel it his duty, and would let no delicaby prevent him giving his steady and uncompromising op position to measures that he considered to be destructive to the institutions of the country—(Great cheering.) But if at the. commencement of their (the present government's) reign —if at the time they assumed the reins of government, he was unable to consider them as worthy of confidence, he would say that he did not consider 'that either foreign or domestic policy since that period had entitled them to his support—(cheers);—and he must say that he was more particularly inclined to Mistrust them when he saw under whose miserable protection its exist ence is prolonged—(Great cheeting.) In lookiOg back upon the measures brought into the House of Commons by the minis try during the' last and present session, he could not help obserVing with regret, that when' there had been a promise of good held out to the country, there had alWayi been engrafted oh it some unfortunate principle of evil, of which, While ; they admitted the' good, they could not admit the whole— ( 'cheers. ) However palatable the preparation and profes sion might appear in the first instance, yet, before they get to the bottom, they found they could not drain' the cup of its dregs without feeling that there was something poi sonous—something destructive remaining —(Great cheering.) Mr. Bramston then entered into a luminous examination of the Irish municipal reform bill and the Irish chtirch question, and, after dwelling upon the manner in which they had been ineffec tually resisted in the House of Commons, he observed that he congratulated the meeting that, though the efforts of the con servatives in the lower house had been of no avail, tbere was still, fortunately for the friends of the church and the well-being of the country, another house to whkh.there was an appeal— . (immense Cheering ) —a house Of independentmenhonourable, firm, wise' and eloquent statesmen—(renewed cheers)—meu who were not to be daunted or controlled by such threats or by . such policy as influenced seine of those in the other house— men who heeded not the taunts . of their, enemies and the Cotin lry's enemies, but considered them as the passing wind or the stubble cackling—(immense cheeri, in which the conclusion Of the'sentence was loit)—men who felt that they possessed va luable and idiportant privileges-- , privileges out for their own interest, but to be exercised for 'the good . of the countp— (cheers) —privileges that they had most beneficially exercised, and which, God giant, they might continue to exercise—(loud cheers) - -privileges which enabled them to stand between the inroads of monarchy and the trampling under foot by democra tid power. (Renewed cheets4 Before he sat down perhaps they would allow him to" congratulate them upon the distin gui;hed.meeting which this town and the neighbourhood had this'evening shown to' the conservatives of England. (Cheers) They had heard in the House of Commons and else Where much of the establishment of Normal schoolS for purposes of which there was no doubt; but let the principles and politics of these Normal schools be diffused as widely as they could be, and as numerous as their professors desired' to make them, be feared them not while he saw the conservatives assembling, intelligent, wealthy, influential, and numerous as the present, throughout the country, and evincing their veneration of that constitution under which Great Britain had so long enjoyed peace and prosperity. (Loud and long-continued cheering.) Mr. Palmer also rose to return thanks. After expressing his gratitude for the great warmth 'with which his name had been received, he observed that it would not be irrelevant, notwith standing the eloquent speech of his honourable colleague, if he alluded to some leading acts of the present ministry—destruc tive acts, the results Of which there could be no doubt if that ministry should be permitted to continue much longer in power; and he would say that the result would not Only be the destruc tion of the constitution of the country, with church and state, lint the deStruction of the very people themselves. (Loud cries of "Hear.") Several other toasts,including the Duke of Wellington, Lord Lyndhurst, Sir Robert Peel, &c., were enthusiastically drunk, and several excellent speeches were delivered, but which, from the great press of inatter, we are obliged to omit. ' The company did, not separate until a late hour. WEST SUFFOLK CONSERVATIVE DINNER. The first annual dinner of the West Suffolk Conservative AsSoCiation Took place on Friday last, in an extensive pavilitin titted up for the occasion in the Angel-Inn -yard, Bury. The pavilion in which the company sat down towdinnnleigr,betex,tietiiiidl,e_, extended ov er the whole area of the Angel - yard. It was 74 feet long, and 50 feet wide, and th e i n tetior presented, when very splendid coup d'ceil. There were 16 tables, exclusive of the one at which the noble chairman presided. Shortly after four o'clock the noble Chairman the Right Hon. Earl Jernivn, M.P., entered the room, accompanied by several of the Most distinguished persons in the neighbourhood. He was received by loud cheers, and on taking his seat the dinner was inmtedi atelv served up. It consisted of nearly every delicacy of the season. Glace havingleen said by the Rev. Colville, D.D., upwards of 400 pertions sat doWn to dinner. The usual conservative toasts were given after the cloth was withdrawn, and were responded to with the gr eatest e n thusia sm. Thefollowing gentlemen addressed the meeting :—the l hair man, the Rev. Mr. Crick, (Public Orator of Cambridge), Mr. Bevan, Mr. Oakes, Mr. Mapletoft, Colonel Rushbrooke, Mr. H. S. Waddington. Sir T.

AYLESBIII3 Y.—On Monday last the town of A vlesbury pre sented a scene that would give further proofs (if any be still wanting) that conservative ►eelings are gaining power rapidly with the middle classes. Upwards of 240 of the electors of the borough and hundreds of Aylesbury assembled together at the George Hotel, for the purpose of receiving NV. M. Praed, Esq. M.P. fOr Yarmouth, who has pledged himself to come forward on the conservative interest at the first opportunity in the place of the present gallant member, Colonel Hamner, whu will retire ou account of ill health. A most excellent supper was provided on the occasion. Thos.

TIM LIVERPOOL STANDARD. bLISGELLANEOUS. The landlord of a gin palace in the neighbourhood of Leices ter-square, by way of attracting customers, has adopted the following novel expedient :—He has had bills printed in the same style with play-bills, ornamented at the top with an en• graving of the Royal arms, and intitled " Theatre Royal." The bill goes on to state that •. the landlord is sole lessee ; that he is responsible for the management of the establishment; and that he has procured an unrivalled association of the most spirited characters, whose inspiring influence will be constantly at the command of a generous and enlightened public." It then states that amongst the dramatis persona are included, "the following first-rate performers :—M essrs. .Champagneo, Burguudio, Cla teto, &c.; Signors Oporto, Sherrvano, Maderio, assisted by 'Monsieur Brandy de Cognac, Madame Rummania, Nlaidetnoi sells Jenny Jean; Mons. Ale (from Berkshire,) Mr. Samson Stout, from Cork and Tlublin; and Master Porter, who stands unrivalled for strength." The bill concludes with "orders are admitted." DESTRUCTIVE INSECT.—Some time ago a number of packages of fancy and Turkey red goods were returned front the west coast of South America to a house in Glasgow, by which they had been previously shipped to that quarter of the world for sale. On the packages being examined, it was found , that the greater number of them had been very much injured by the. 'ravages of a small insect unknown in this country, but said to be very destructive in South America. The nature of the destruction wrought by'these creatures was very curious.. They bad eaten their way in countless instances through the wooden boxes, and the goods encased in them, from one end to the other in lines as straight as if they had been formed by.the sertion of some sharp iron• instrument, and in every case these, apertures were the exact size of the body of the insect. Nearly all the packages were more or less perforated in this way; but one of them in particular was entirely riddled, and presented an appearance not unlike that of an empty honeycomb. The insect is not lower than our common fly, but a glance at its ravages will show it to be •a very different sort of creature. Though a barrier of wood formed no obstacle to their progress, the tribe seem to have their tastes,. as an evident partiality was shown for the fancy goods—the Turkeys being much less in jured. This occurrence should operate as a caution with our South American friends to be very careful in . packing.efgoods. In the present instance the whole of the injured gOodi have been sent back.—Glasgow Courier. We learn from Auch that no fewer than 37 coffins,,containing the bodies of so many victims to the storm of the 24th ult, were colleCted at the H otel de Ville of that town on the following day. The greater number were from the' low quarter of 4mbaques. A poor woman was found in the uppermost room ,of . a house, the roof of which had been covered with the flood, pressing two of her children to her bosom. Her countenance still expressed the mental anguish she had suffered. They were all of the lower order of the people, and buried at the public expense, In the town 40 houses were totally destroyed, and many others so much shaken as. to he likely to fall shortly. Some of thepublie, buildingi.have sustained great damage. The trees of the pro menades have in great part been either torn up by the roots, or greatly mutilated. The lauds in the environs of Auch were completely deVastated. The vines and other trees have been stripped, not only of their fruits and leaves, but even of their bark. GREATEST ASCENTS 114. THE ATMOSPHERE.—M. B oss ain.. gault, in company with Colonel Hall, on the 15th December, 1831, ascended Chimborazo, to the height of 6006 metres, (19,699 feet,) the greatest elevation which has yet been attain ed on land, Humboldt having been able to reach as high only as 19,400 feet. M. Gay Lussac, in a balloon, rose to 22,906 feet, at Paris. The barometer carried by Boussaingault fell to 13 inches 8 lines. The temperature in the shade was 7-8 C. (45.60 F.) - 'This chemist thinks it possible to live in rarified air. Thus, at a height almost equal to that of Mont Blanc, where Saussure had scarce strength to consult his instruments, young women may be seen, in South America, dancing during the whole night. The celebrated battle of Pichincha, during the war of independence, was fought at a height little inferior to that of Mont Rose. The guides, who accompanied Saussure assured him, that they bad seen the stars in broad day, Bons saingault never witnessed them, although he reached a much greater altitude.--Journ. de Chim. Medic. TRICKS OF DISHONEST DEALERS IN HORSES.--II is some times convenient for these gentlemen to snake a horse appear older or younger than he really is. If they can sell a tbree-year old for a four-year-old, they save. the price of nearly a year's keep, and the purchaser gets an animal too young to do much work. To enable them to do this they forcibly draw the teeth that would naturally drop out in the course of seven or eight months. Then, the horse teeth,.no longer opposed by the colt teeth, quickly rise and fill their places. A person well acquaint ed with the teeth.may sometimes detect this piece of cheatery, by comparing the development of these forced teeth with the wear which the others have sustained; and sometimes the juvenile appearance of the animal will show that he is yet too young for work. It has happened, too, that the dealer has for gotten to draw the opposite teeth in the upper jaw, and delurnsy operator has wrenched out two teeth instead of one on the same side. Either of these circumstances will show that some decep tion has been practssed.—Steward's Advice to Purchasers of Horse:. USEFUL TO IDLE BAREISTERS.—An advertisement appears in a New South Wales Paper, which interests some pat ties in this country. It begins—' Wanted immediately, some bar risters, called to the bar of England." It then goes on to say, Seriously, the advertiser begs to acquaint the numerous gen- Ilemen of high talent and legal knowledge, with whoth the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland abound, that there is here an ample field for the exercise of those labours which circumstances render almost .unavailing in the mother country, owing to the irresistible effect of - all-powerful compe tition. The practice of the bar of New South .Wales is at pre sent Monopolised by some half-dozen gentlemen, who sometimes jein in an application to the presiding Judge to postpone the business' of the day, on the ground of over exertion and want of rest ; and it must be clear, therefore, that it would further the administration of justice, benefit the suitor, and abridge the labour of the judges, if there were a greater number of gentle men duly qualified to manage the business of the court. We therefore cordially invite the presence in this colony of some dozen of English barristers of talent and independence." UNION Woax. HOUSES.—Such is the opposition•to the pro posed system of immuring the poor within the wails of a union work-house, which it has been said " is for a prison but a milder name," and the indiscriminate separation of husband from wife, that we entertain a belief that some amelioration of the law, in the latter respect in particular,, will be adopted, and in that case the large buildings now erecting, and those pro posed to be immediately commenced, will in part be rendered ; useless. Two union houses are now in progress in this county,. one - for Lexden and Winstree Hundreds, to cost about £6,000, and the other for the Colchester Union. In the latter it is pro posed to provide for 300 paupers, at an expense of £7,900. The house now building for the Colchester Union, our Correspon dent states, was unanimously resolved upon by the Board of Guardians, although there are as many as six work-houses in the union, the sale of which, it is calculated, will nearly pay the quotas of the parishes in which they stand. The. Colchester new house is rapidly progressing; it is 90 feet in length, fronted with gray stocks, the elevation gothic, and is likely to form an ornament to the town.—Essex Herald. As a child, Mrs. Hemans was an object almost of devotion, for her extreme beauty ; her complexion was remarkably bril liant; her hair long, curling, and. golden. In the latter years of her life its hue deepened into brown, but it remained silken, and profuse, and wavy to the last. She was one of those, too, who may - be said to be born and nurtured in the midst of pro phecies. Who can tell how little or how much impression passing words, carelessly spoken, may make upon one so sensi tive? One lady incautiously observed, in her hearing, "'That child is not made for happiness, 1 know; her colour comes and goes too fast." She never forgot this remark, and would men tion it as having canocl her much p a i n a t th e ti me w h en it was spoken.—Morning Herald.

It is apparently a sake from a larger body, and is composed of small smooth stones, similar to those found on the sea shore, matted closely and firmly together in a mixture of sand and glutinous substance about the colour and consistence of thick tar. The side where it is supposed to have split off from the larger body ,looks like melted sand or stone, and is quite solid, and Some of the small stones on the outside are discoloured, as though by the heat of ablaze. There seems to have been some attractive power by which the small stones were drawn together, as they all shape to a certain point, and are as nicely packed as the pavings of a street. Several smaller particles, of the same substance, were found around the house the next day,,aud the whole are now in the possession of Dr. B. T. Roath:—Norwich (Conn'ecticut) STRANGE MISTAKE.—Mr. J. M'Cutcheon, commander of the brig Louisa, has just returned from a voyage to the Mauritius. When he came ashore he was astonished at the warm congratu lations, and the more-than usually kind greetings, of his friends; but found ou inquiry that he had been given tip for lost, it having been believed that the Louisa had been captured by pirates, and all 'hands. murdered, owing to a ridiculous report published in Lloyd's list last month.

It appears that there was not a single black on board the Louisa, nor is Captain M'Cutcheon a mulatto, so that the captain of the Larkins was rather out in his reckuping. In consequence of this report, it is stated that iusurances were effected at the enor mous premium of 25 per cent, instead of I or 11.

It was raised by a very ingenious contrivance of M. Montferrautl, and is plated for the presenton a pedestal. A lawyer in New York once wrote "rascal" in the hat of a. brother lawyer, who, on diseovering,it, entered a .eornplaint in open court against the trespasser, who, he said, had not only taken his•hat, but had written his own name in it. The London Court of Directors of the National Bank of Ire land have elected Mr. O'Connell governor of the bank.. The idea of appointing a few expftrienced English Inspectors, for the purpose of improving. the Dublin Rolice, has, it seems, given great offence to some persons in Ireland, though, in ad dition to. the two London.

MANCHESTER AND SALFORD ASYLUM FOR FEMALE PENI TENTS.—The first stone of a new building for a penitentiary was laid on Friday, with the usual ceremonies, by Sir Oswald Mosley, Bart., president of the institution. The building is a neat, plain edifice, with Grecian front, situate in Einbden place, near Greeuhevs, Chorlton-on-Medlock. It is 77' feet by 70 feet, and 37 feet high, and will accommodate 60 inmates. WHIG EcoNomy.—The carriage of the polling hooks to and from the Orkney Isles, is charged to the public in the last esti mates, at the trifling sum of £l,4oo—a sum somewhat larger than a Manchester manufacturer in good - business would. give for the fee simple of the whole islandi.

REMARKABLE TUBTLE.—Mr. Waud, purveyor of turtle to his Majesty, 38, New Bond-street, where it may be seen, is the happy possessor of an extraordinarily fine lively turtle, from the island of Ascension, weighing upwards of 600 lbs. A letter from Berlin states that great alarm is created in that city•by the great number of suicides and assassinations that have lately been committed there.

This is the second importation of the kind into London from Scotland, and the sales have been such as to give a profitable return. A grocer, named Patrick Thomson, residing at Glasgow, in a public advertisement in the Glasgow Courier, states that as soo n as he shall have made 150,(X)0 cash retail sales to the ex tent of ss. each, he will present to one of his customers his house, offices, and garden; and he proposes that the choice shall be determined in the following manner:—Every customer's name shall be enrolled in respect of each ss, purchase in a book open to every purchaser, and when the 150,000 sales shall'have effected, the 150,000 numbers, corresponding to those names, hall be put into a' wheel made, for that purp o s e , and a b r e t el ihe wheel has been revolved, one name or number shall be drawn from the wheel, to whom he will present the house; office, and garden, free of expense or incumbrance. He will give the customer (if he wishes it) £lOOO instead of the property, de ducting five per cent for prompt payment. The enrolment commenced on the Ist September ~and Thomson states that a eonsiderable number of names dM m have been entered. Mr. Thoin son's ss. purchases would produce £37,000, and, supposing he on ly obtained a profit of 25 per cent., his net produce would amount to £9,375.

According to a statement of the Staats C.ourcint, respecting the commerce of Dantzic during the first six months of the present year, it appears that. English speculators,have purchased between 10,000 and 12.000 lasts of wheat, nearly the whole of which' has been lodged in depots till a favourable opportunity for transporting it arrives. This speculation has been encou raged by large arrivals from Poland of the yroduce 011831 and 18735. The prices, which at the beginning of this year were, according to the quality, from 70 to 100 rix dollars a last, have risen in consequence of this speculation to from, 90 to 120 rix dollars. Up to the 3,lth June, in 1835, there were exported to Holland 1,2:32 lasts of wheat and 18 lasts of peas. The exports of rye and linseed have not been considerable, because the crops were scanty. The moderate price of wheat has caused an in creased quantity of flour to be ground. The timber trade has been very active. considerable quantities have been sent to France for the use of her navy, but this has not been the case with Holland. During the first six months of 1836, fifty Dutch vessels entered Dantzic, thirty-two of which were in ballast, and the. rest laden with herrings, linen cloths, iron, and wine. They returned with timber, ashes, corn, seeds, and zinc.---,Morn , iny THE TEA TRAPS, Monday.—The delivery last week was nearly 561,0001 b.

HARBOUR'S OF REFUGE.—That there are many portions of the coast of Great Britain in which the want of harbours of-re fuge has led to the loss of many vessels that might have been easily saved had such harbours existed ; of which the two fol lowing instances may be named :—ln three different gales of wind which occurred in the years 1821, 1824, 1826, there were lost on the . east coast of Englnd, betweenthe.litinaber and the Tees, 169 vesseli, of which 73 were wrecked on the rocks off Redcar, where peculiar facilities exist for constructing a har bour of refuge, by which, the loss of nearly all these vessels might have been avoided. In the, present year, 1836) no less than 39 vessels were seen on shore in flolyhead Bay at one time, 20 of which were totally lost With all their crews on board; and within the same period many vessels have been wrecked between 14o lyhearl and LiVerpool, where an excellent position exists for forming a harbour of refuge between the. Great and Little Orme's Head, near the entrance of the river Dee, at.which, had such a harbour been fornied,,the greater number of these vessels might have been saved.—Report ofParligmentary committee on Shißwrecks.
