i3octrp. SONNET. My lady love, my ladle love! Graceful and fair as the turtle dove'. Gentle and kind, how I love to press Thy sylph-like form to my throbbing breast, And to taste with pure ecstatic bliss The soul of love in thy balmy kiss: 'Tis the nearest approach to happiness That an earthly mortal can e'er possess. My lady love, thou'rt pure and bright As the gay and glorious orb of night, More fair than the cygnet's wing of snow; Thy cheek, possessing the beauteous glow That tints the morn, when the sun's first ray Sweeps the grey veil of twilight away. Forms such as thine were created to bless Our dreary sojourn in life's wilderness. My lovely one, my spirit soars When thinking of thee to those blest shores, Where angels of light their tribute bring In songs of praise to their heavenly king, And joyfully tune, with fervent zeal, Their golden harps to the swelling peal. Oh that together when this life is done, We may share such bliss in the world to come! M. K. JOHNSON. THE 'v - OYAGE OF LIFE. We launch our skiff on the ocean of life To stem the tide, doubtless to meet the ebb; But none so skill'd they can withstand the storms Attendant on the voyage of mankind. Some soon are wreck'd, some safer gnide their bark, Braving tee gales that do impede their course, Till some one destin'd wave o'erstrides the deck— The vessel's seen no more.— A calm sits o'er the deep, No darken'd cloud obscures the light of heav'n, And far from view all vestige of dread storm, A cheering breeze invites the anxious crew; They hoist their sails, nor think of danger near; Their skiff goes forth and swiftly glides along, And now she splits upon a hidden rock, And all becomes a wreck.— To joy prophetic masks approaching wo, When care is light, nor know aught else but bliss, E'en then some wo may come o'erwhelming all. But these are things that little do avail, When view'd in thought with that which thought o'erleaps, A somethinc: yet to come—most sure 'twill come; Though different fates are known amongst mankind, For some through life scarce e'er know aught but woe— Their joy's e'en woes, compared with others' bliss; But soon 'tis o'er, ere long all are the same, Anchor'd in death are all the human race; And the vast cargo of this busy world Must hence to one great port we know not of. ilk -Liverpool, April 16, 1838. A FRAGMENT. 'Tis strange —so are all things; 'Tis a mystery, 'tis a vision— So is the world. How lightly dost thou treat this pretty world, Nor yields up aught to man's continued search : Thou, tyrant like, doth nick our feeble ship, For life's great vision doth inform us naught, And, like a dream, do all things pass away. Oh, how unprofitable's the life we hold, Moving our time amidst care-worn discontent, Chasing a someth•int that we know not of: Why, what an air-blown thing is lofty man, (With all his cunning and his swift of thought,) Holding a show of greatness o'er the earth, And yet dissolves he like the meanest thing. But thus to think is discord to the mind, Since it but shapes our thoughts against content; For these are things that wake our hest of sense, For wish we all to know our final doom ; And yet so barren is the vain pursuit To its pursuers, it doth trifling yield, And then the little that we do unmask Effects no purpose hut to wonder more, Awl marvel at a something bid from man; But this man knows (ere long he'll know much more) The morn (loth coins and go, so man, so all Earth's inmates—sn shall the earth itself.— Can all this be, and yet there be no cause? There is—what is't?—a God ! Oh, for conception to conceive his power, Words to breath forth his praise!— He is—we know not what. CON7'E.IIPORARY PRESS. 'THE PEEL BANQUET. (From the Morning Herald.) All (rue- conservatives will not only accept Sir Robert Peel's definition of conservative principles, but will, on all occasions, with steady and unflinching fideility, act up to them. They are the principles of that mixed and limited monarchy under whose benignant protection ra tional liberty has grown up and flourished on the British soil in a manner unknown in any other country of the civilised world. They are the principles for which our greatest statesmen toiled—for which our heroes con quered—for which our patriots bled. They are the prin ciples for the violation of which the traitor King, who hawed the majesty of England at the footstool of the Romish despotism, was driven into ignominy and exile— they are the principles consecrated in those muniments . of our civil and religious liberties, the Act of Settlement and the Bill of Rights—they are, in short, the princi ' pies whieh placed the House of Brunswick ma the throe , . - or these realms. - Any 'ministry in England, by whatever party name it may he designated, that counsels the Sovereign to vio late those conservative and constitutional principles, not only strikes at the hest security of that Sovereign's throne,, 'bet at the very existence of the monarchy itself. With , that monarchy the Protestant faith is so intimately united, , that the minister who inflicts " a heavy blow and great discouragement" on the latter must be taken to intend a deadly injury to that of which it is both a protection and an ornament. At the era of the great rebellion, the enemies of the monarchy made their way to the subver sion of the throne over the ruins of the church. The .arm of revolutionary violence first dragged episcopacy from its seat in the legislature, and overturned thealtars altars of the Protestant faith, before it died the scaffold 'with royal blood, to cement that democratic tyranny which was soon itself to perish by the sword of military despotism, and the execrations of the people. 'We have seen the beginnings of such events attempted at the present day ; hut, thank Heaven, with a success which shows that the lessons of history have not been read to the English nation in vain. This country was once induced, by the arts of demagogues and agitators, to suffer the experiment to be made of improving its con dition by getting rid of the church and throne together, at an enormous cost of blood and misery, only to find that, to recover the liberties which were buried beneath the fall of its ancient constitution, it must retrace its steps to the restoration of the throne and the re.esta blishment of the church, and history records nothing more universal and intense than the joy of that restoration. But to protect is better than to recover—to preserve than to restore. Therefore well did Sir Robert Peel say, in his admirable speech to the 313 members of the House of Commons, of whom he was the honoured guest, at Merchant Tailors' Hall. " By conservative principles I ..mean the maintenance of our settled institutions in church -and state-1 mean also the preservation and defence of that combination of laws, of institutions, Of social usages, habits and manners, which have contributed to mould andform the character of Englishmen, and enabled this country, in the conflicts and fearful rivalry of war, to ex tort the admiration of the world ; and in the useful emu lation of peaceful industry, commercial enterpri se , me chanical skill, and social improvement, have endeared the name of England and Englishmen, in every country, to those who seek the establishment of liberty without .licenCousness, and the enjoyment of a national and pure form of religion, which is at once the consolation of the virtuous mac and is also the hest guarantee which hu man institutions can afford for civil and religious liberty." Yea, the maintenance of the settled institutions of the country in ehureir and state is the preservation to Eng land of all those :blessings, moral, social, and political, which the conservative orator has in this passage of glow ing and graceful truth sn eloquently enumerated. It is surely better to endure the toil and vigilance ne cessary to preserve those blessings now, by firmly resist icy all wild and intemperate innovation, than to undergo . hereafter such a struggle as our ancestors did to recover them when lost by their .own fatuity and supineness. The British constitution is one of those glorious works of human wisdom, favoured by a protecting Pr o vid e n ce through the trials and vicissitudes of ages, such as not only brings strength and grandeur, and honour to the na tion that possesses it, but sheds a glory on the history of civilisation itself. Unlike the flimsy emanations of phi losophical liberalism, which we have seen sprout and wi -ther with mushroom rapidity, it has had the slow growth of our native oak, striking, through long centuries of -storm anti sunshine, its roots deeper and deeper into the !sell, above which towers its antire strength and sturdy magnificence. It is against the stem of this goodly or nament of the forest that ministers undertook to wield the revolutionary axe. In their puny hands he instru ment of destruction furnished 'by their democratic allies has yet made but slight impression upon the stubborn grain of our ancient constitution. But should conser vatism, therefore, stand idly by while those attacks are renewed, seeing that the preservanee of pigmies may effect what the desultory efforts of a giant might not ac comp;iali ? No; it is the duty of conservatives—a duty of which we have constantly reminded them—to strike . the weapon of destruction to the ground, leaving minis 'ers, if they will, to enjoy official power, without the ,weans of converting it to the ruin of their country. Not only in the speech of Sir Robert Peel, but in those of other conservatives delivered at the festival at Mer chant Tailors' Hall, we think we see decided indications of a vigorous, determined, and united resistance for the future to the anti-national and anti-protestant schemes ,and projects of a ministry the moat unprinstpled and in -capable that ever surrounded the tritish throne. Some of the. ministerial journals affect to be facetious upon exhibition of conservative union and strength; 44but ilievi *-}Revery melancholy mirth—a most lachrymose n they are quite surprised, and not a indignant, at observing that Lord Chandra: occu pied the chair or a banquet, At ,vvlaich upwards of three hundred members of parliament were the hosts, and Sir Robert Peel was the guest. This does not look very like that disunion in the conservative body which they had often announced to their readers as having taken, or being about to take place. Never among three hundred men of any party was there a more perfect agreement as to the great principles of their political creed than was evinced at the "Peel banquet." The firmness of prin ciple and energy of purpose which marked the speech of the Marquis of Chandos, whose manly consistency of character needs no eulogy from us, were responded to in a similar spirit by the great leader of the conservatives, as well as by Lord Stanley and Sir James Graham, who, having, in whig company, promoted reform, as long as it was practicable and safe, sacrificed the possession of power and the allurements of ambition, rather than al low themselves to be made the blind instruments of re volution. Never had men a nobler task and more sacred duties to perform than have been thrown in the exigency of the country upon the conservatives in parliament. Upon them the fate of the greatest empire of the modern world depends. Upon them depends the fate of all those insti tutions by which the character of a great empire is ele vated and sustained. The prerogatives of the crown, the dignity of the peerage, the purity of the national altars, the liberties of the people, all depend upon their exertions to uphold onr unrivalled constitutional system of government in its integrity. The conservation of such a system is, indeed, a trust worthy of true patriots, and all who are deserving of the name will appreciate it rightly and discharge it well. LIVERPOOL MECHANICS INSTITUTION. Liac'rungs ON POETRY. On Saturday evening, Dr. Shepherd delivered the fourth of his lectures on this delightful art. After defining the mean ing and rhythm of lyric poetry, he showed that it was first em ployed in religious institutions. The most ancient instance which we possess is the thanksgiving ode of Moses, on passing the Red Sea, and which may be ranked as the most perfect of its kind. The origin of the ode appears to be coeval with the creation of man, or, mere properly speaking, with his first civilization. The ode has been applied from the earliest period to the purposes of that eternal passion which rules in every clime from the snows of Nova Zembla to the burning plains of India—the passion of love. This has ever constituted the favourite subject of song. The sonnets of Petrarch are cele brated for this. Grossly as this topic has been handled by some of the ancient poets, there have not been wanting those who have treated it with every delicacy of sentiment. It must be stated, to the honour of our own country, that our language abounds with specimens of amatory poetry, in which the ele gance of composition vies with delicacy of feeling, and which the most modest lady may peruse without a blush. The most ancient lyrical compositions extant are to be found in the Holy Scriptures. The Book of Psalms, in particular, contains an excellent collection. The poems of Pindar were held in high repute by his countrymen, and by all foreigners of good taste, particularly the Romans. They all refer to the chariot races and other pursuits at the Olympic games, which were of intense interest to the various states of Greece. The ground upon which these games were held was hallowed, and they were held in sight of the Temple of Jupiter, a temple which was adorned with all the grace which sculpture could bestow. The men who figured at these games were men of exalted stations. Among them were to he found kings of the various nations in Greece which were governed by kings, as well as men of the greatest power and talents, who ranked as equal, if not superior, to these kings. Dr. Shepherd concluded by a rapid survey of the English lyric poets. On Wednesday, he considered the nature and objects of didactic poetry, and showed the difficulties attending the composition of a good didactic poem. and analysed. criti cally, the works of Lucretius, the Georgics of Virgil, Pope's Essay on Criticism and Man, and Akenside's Pleasures of the Imagination. To-morrow evening, he will take a rapid survey of the beauties of pastoral poetry. SPORTING INTELLIGENCE. LIVERPOOL CRAVEN MEETING. The Earl of Eglinton Stewards. Sir J. Gerard, Bart. Mr. Jackson (of Chester) Judge. The Liverpool Spring meeting commenced on Wednesday with auspicious weather. At an early hour the road to Aintree pre sented the usual motley groups wending their way to the attrac tive spot, and, as the appointed hour approached, from the slap. up four-in-hand to the latest fashioned cabriolet, vehicles of all descriptions, including of course Lawrence's out and out spick and span new omnibuses, with civil and attentive Jehus, bore their human cargoes hence to participate in the day's amuse ments. At Walton, those who chose to enjoy the walk, diverged from the high road, and found their way to the racing ground by a footpath across a delightful succes s ion of pasture lands, and thus avoided the dust of the road, to which others were exposed. Front Walton to the course the country is pleasing and pictu resque, wooded bills and mounds, and varied by a landscape rich in its variety ; and the picture, onKnis occasion, was height ened by the life and and animation given to it by the onward movement of the pleasure-seeking Dicky Sams. The grand stand commands an extensive view of this pleasing panorama. But it becomes necessary that we bestow some at tention on the things below, and of these not the least savoury anti useful is the ample provision which Mr. Lynn (of the Wa terloo Hotel), the respected secretary of the racing committee, had !nade in the lower apartments of the stand to gratify even the appetite of the most fastidious epicure. The company in the grand stand was not so numerous as on other occasions, but it was nevertheless respectable. Many ladies graced the front of the first story, and amongst the noblemen and gentlemen pre sent we observed Lord Molyneux,"Sir H. Bold Houghton. Sir Thomas mtarne, tion. cuartes Stanley, Hon. Mr. Fitzroy. lion. E. Stanley, the Hon. E. M. Lloyd Mostyn, F. R. Price, Esq., Captain Vaughan, Rev. Griffith Lloyd, T. W. Gifford, Esq., W.

Esq., J. Rigby, Esq., Holywell, Edmund Hornlty. Esq., &c., &c., &c. The other stands were crowded to their * highest point, and the grounds also bore their wonted numbers, who had the usual sources of gratification, besides those of the turf. The day's snorts commenced with The AtNTIKR STAKES of 15 says. each, loft with 20 added from the Racing Fund. Three y rs Gst. 41b ; fair, Sat Mb; five. Bst 131 b; six and aged, Ost2lb.

During Tuesday, business was done at the following prices : —6 to 4 agst Birdlime, 31 to 1 agst Heron, 4 to 1 agst Chat, 4i to 1 against Brother to Van. which was a alight variation from the odds of Monday. Before running, the old mare rose in estimation, and some others declined: 5 to 4 only was offered against Birdlime, 3 to 1 agst Heron, 4 to 1 agst Brother to Van, 6 to -agst Chat, 12 to 1 agst Parolles, and 15 to 1 - in run ning. Paroiles - had few friends, but the rest met with support at the prices mentioned. The horses, with the exception of the mare, passed the stand before starting, and then quietly pro ceeded to the starting-post at the end of the near straight run. where Birdlime was being saddled. The horses all ready, Mr. Thomas, who efficiently discharged the duty throughout the day, got them o ff without a false start, but the mare's fretful ness, as at Chester, threw her in the rear. Chat.shnwed in front as they passed the stand at a slow pace, Heron second, l'arolles third, Brother to Van fourth, and the mare still last, but pulling violently. In this order they ran along the off flat, until near the bridge, when they took closer order, and the pace became stronger; the mare then began to work herself forward, as suming the third place, and Parolles became whipper-in. From thence the pace increased, anti Parolles' chance was bowled out at the last turn home, for he was unable to.live with them. The four ran well together, and Darling at the distance strug gled for the front rank, but the mare's superior weight told against her, anti she could at most maintain the third place. Heron (who, by-the-bye, is a good five-year-old, and carried only Sat 31h, while the old mare had 9st 71b) winning cleverly by a couple of lengths, the mere being the samedistance behind Chat. Brother to Van, we were afterwards informed. broke down in running near home. He was taken away as " lame as a dog."

Before starting for the first heat, the betting was 6 to 4 against Latebird, 3 to I against Rodora. and 3 to 1 against any other. Rodora led at starting, St. Leonard second, and Vau third; Latebird and Achilles waiting for the heat. At the first turn after passing the stand Rodora made an attempt to bolt, and lost about twenty lengths in the attempt. hut Neild recovered the lost grmind ere they had passed the bridge, before turning to come home. The race home was an exceedingly pretty one, St. Leonard and Van running neck and neck, with Rodora on their haunches, until they neared the winning -post, when Ro dora rushed in, and won cleverly by a neck—the second place being won by half a head only. Second heat. 5 to 4 against Latebird, and 2 to 1 against Ro dora. Nothing else named. Latebird led, Rodora being held with difficulty in the oe,cond place, and Van and Achilles close up; St. Leonard waited. From the distance the four ran a pretty race to the stand, but Whitehouse won in his usual clever style by a length—having never been headed. Van was a couple of lengths behind. Third heat. Latebird and St. Leonard had the llela to themselves, and the odds were the Custom house to a China orange. Latebird took the lead and kept it, •vinning without difficulty. This race terminated the day's sport, and we must pay our meed of commendation to the "powers that be," for the coder and regularity with which the whole was conducted. Doncaster has its Lockwood and so has Liverpool, and to the efficient ex ertions of the latter on the course much credit is due. From Aintree to Liverpool, at the conclusion of the races, Ascot was presented, not in miniature, but to the life • never was there so great a number of the "kim-aup-do-ye-thill-1-stole-ye" sort of animals, harnessed in crazy vehicles—dung-cart, donkey-cart, and shandrey. with seats of rude structure, for the conveyance of the more humble lovers of the turf back to the places of their destination—than on this occasion. From the patient ass tot he stout dray-horse, and carriages suitable to the animals, all were in requisition, besides the small turns-out of the other classes of society, from the peer to the costermonger. and we have plea sure in stating that we have not heard of a single accident that could give an unpleasant retrospect to the day's amusement. YESTERDAY-SECOND DAY. Yesterday morning dawned gloomily, and there was every appearance of a wet, disagreeable day; but the heavy clouds which veiled the horizon gradually dissipated, and the morning arose with all the freshness and beauty of May. The wind, however, continued rather cold till the day advanced and the sun's power began to be felt. As on Wednesday, crowds of all classes, and in all fashioned vehicles, wended their way through a six miles drag of suffocating dust and continuous struggle of labouring " tits," to the scene of action. And, truly, in describ ing the scene, if a certain degree of mystification and indistinct ness increase to sublimity and grandeur, that which is of itself imposing, the imposing spectacle of thousands of human beings all eagerly striving for one goal, with faces flushed with excite ment, exertion, and the inflaming effects of dust, the jolting of hacks, and the still worse jolting carts without springs drawn at full trot, and all wrapped in cloudy mystification and dusty in distinctness, this scene above all others deserves the epithets of grand and sublime. But we pause; its recollection overpowers us; we shake off the dust and breathe again, and proceed to re late what follows. The race course was not much crowded; and there was an amazing proportion of the "snobocracy" and mobocracy," and plenty of all descriptions of thimbleriggery to amuse them. Barouches, britskas, buggies, carriages, coaches, cars, &c., &c. were in rather unusual numbers on the course. The grand stand was but thinly attended; there were a few ladies on it, but not many. Its chief occupants were young Liverpudlians, geniuses most of them, no doubt, in their way, who sported sporting coats, and puffed cigars, lolled about a /a cigar divan, affecting to be ci divan/ sportsmen. Nimrod never looked half so knowing. Amongst the distingues we noticed Lord Moly neux, and we heard that Lord Stanley was on the course. The first race was for The Craven Stakes. for two year olds, a Sweepstakes of 25 sovs each, 15 ft, with 30 soya added from the Racing Fund. 13 subscribers. T. Y.C. Sir T.

There was, rather singularly, a good start the first time. The pace was good—the struggle short. Apothecary came in winner by a length, followed by The Dean, and Charlatan third. The Spring St. Leger, a Sweepstakes of '25 sovs each, with 30 added from the Racing Fund. One mile anti three quarters. The second horse to save his stake. 5 subs. Lord Westminster's ch c Sir Ralph Holmes 1 Mr Wilkin's borhr c Wee Willie Lye 2 Mr Fowler's ch c Gilbert Gurney Calloway 3 Mr Ogden's br c flarptirhey Edwards 4 The betting was chiefly on Sir Ralph; the Wee Willy was a favourite, and stood 5 to 4 against Sir Ralph ; 5 to 2 against Wee Willie; 5 to 2 against Harpurhey ; 5 to 1 against Gilbert Gurney; all taken. At starting Sir Ralph took the lead, fol lowed by Giihert Gurney, and for the first half mile the pace was nothing hut a canter, every horse holding back. On turn ing the corner near the winning post, the pace was increased, and Gilbert Gurney shot a-head and took the lead., followed by Sir Ralph, the others behind. This order was kept up round the course, the pace getting very severe, till the horses arrived at the straight distance, when all came up in a cluster, the race beautiful. Gilbert Gurney tried hard to maintain his advantage, but it was "no go." Like Cmsar's celebrated bulletin yeah vidi vici, Sir Ralph came up, challenged, and won. The race was a very good one, Sir Ralph winning by nearly a length, fol lowed by Wee Willie, Gilbert Gurney third, and Humphrey last. The next was a rftce for A Sweepstakes of 50 toys. each, h ft, for the produce of mares covered in 1831. Colts Bst 71b, fillies Bst 41b. One mile and a distance. 31b allowed to those got by untried stallions, or nut of mares whose produce never won. This was walked over by Lord Westminster's b f.

On the race, 2 to 1 on Potentate; 4 to 1 against Lord Stanley; sto 1 against Capulet. The first heat Potentate won easily, followed by Ole Bull, and Capnlet last. For the second heat Potentate and Caprilet only started. Capulet started at a tremendous pace, and kept his advantage to near the winning post, when Pontentate passed him cleverly, and won the race. This concluded the day's sport. It will thus be seen that the favourites won in each race. THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD► COCKING.

The apathy which has marked the Derby betting for some weeks past, continues as great as ever; there are certainly a few parties who appear desirous to lay against, but scarcely any to back horses. Very little change will he found to have arisen out of the few arrangements made yesterday. Ph ceuix was backed at one time at 11 to 2, at another at 13 to 2, and again at 6 to 1, all for mouerate sums; his present market p r i ce ma y b e stated at 11 to 2, or takers of 6to 1. Cobham declined to 11 to I in the early part of the day, and a trifle more as it advanced. Young Rowton nominally at 11 to I, with very few friends. Inn and Beggarman as before, and nothing done or said about D'Egville. The bets made on Alemdar, Bretby, and Conser vator, were for small amounts. The betting against Nonplus was an indefinite as it was in Phoenix's case, 18 to 1 having been taken in one quarter, and 14 to 1 in another; to the best of our belief 15 to 1 would pretty nearly answer the "ends of justice."

THE OAKS. The repeated attempts to back Ninney have at length had the effect of making her as good a favourite as either of the New market mares; no one offe rs more than 6to 1 against her, and full those odds might have been obtained about either Barca rolle or Vespertilio. Business is, if possible, more flat on this stake than on the Derby. MANUFACTURING INTER EST.—A person who reside in this town, hut who travels in Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, assures us that the exportation of machinery by the port of Hull to the continent is enormous He stated that a party who were then packing machinery at Hull, assures him that their house had exported machinery to the value of £10,0(X) in that week. He further stated that neatly one-half the craft that ply on the. Ouse, the Aire, and the Don, are engaged its the traffic. The Man chester machinery has been sent by the Liverpool and Leeds coach to the latter place, from thence it is,taken, as well es the wool and flax machinery, by the railway by way of Selby to Hull. Since Mr. P. Thompson gave up the bobbins and car riages that were seized on their transit to Prague, it appears little notice is taken of the export of machinery to the East countries.—Nottingham Journal. SCARCITY OF UGLY WomEN.—A very eccentric gentleman was once complaining that, after a great deal of trouble, he h a d not been able to meet with an ugly woman, so that he much doubted whether, after all, such a being existed. " For my part," continued he, " I elmost believe such a creature to be a mere chimera of the imagination, and to be classed with those • fieticious beings whose heads are said. to grow beneath their shoulders Some years ago I made the following experiment : —I caused two advertisements to be inserted in the papers for a housekeeper, one was for a lady, who should not only be com petent for such an office, but qualified also for a companion, and be a woman of education and elegant manners: the other required not',ing of this; it only stipulated as a sine qua non, that the applicant should he ugly. In answer to the former ad vertisement, I was overwhelmed with letters from so many ar ' complished, elegant ladies, that I congratulated both the age and my own country on possessing so much female excellence. But—would you believe it ? to the latter I received not a single reply, and I have since. more than once, inserted the same ad vertisement with exactly the same success." CoNsElivaTtsm.—Conservatism does not deserve the name, unless it be exercised in action as well as profession. To-day, a festival' is to he held in London, given by 311 conservatives. members of the House of Commons, to Sir Robert Peel—and well does the honourable baronet deseive the compliment, and the expression of right constitutional feeling which this gather ing demonstrates. It is well merited by him—it is well paid by the conservative members. But why, we ask, if 311 conserva tive representatives unite for a display and a profession of re gard, respect, and united feeling; why did not 50 mire mem bers of that list attend in the House of Commons on Thursday week on a division affecting the church, and through it, the constitution ? Ministers had only a paltry majority of II ! Only 241 conservatives could then and there he present, and vo te and ; but 311 professing conservatives, 70 more than voted on Thursday week, give in their names to swell this ban quet's appearance! Why is not the profession followed out? Why do not the men who will grace their leader at a feast, vote for him after a fight? "l'is mere deception to give their names alone. Sir Robert will believe that 311 votes (as names) are at his direction on all broad and vital questions; but what a mock ery it will be—what a trifling with' Sir Robert Peel, and what an injury to the " good cause" to be absent on divisions when such an administration as Lord Melbourne's could be defeated est ino the o g f m o e v x e t r r n e me e n i t n a lp n . d at t a h t e le m e, ai i n n t v e o n l a v n in c g e oarl thee t d h e e a r de structiononatitie o f st interests of this empire! —Bucks Herald. The CurioNaTtoN.—lt appears free the provincial journals throughout the country, that steps are in progress to celebrate the coronation in a isay becoming, the loyalty and chivalry of the nation. Public entertainments, iu which the poor are not forgotten, balls, and other demonstrations of joy are already announced. Accounts from Florence, dated 231 ult. state that on that day the Count de St. Lou ( Louis Bonaparte) eras married to a young lady, aged 17 years only. Tile bride isdescribed as the hand somest woman in Florence. The bridegroom is said to be so much paralysed as to be unable to help himself to food. THE SPITA WEAVERS.—We are gratified to learn that a considerable improvement, and no little degree of brisk ness have began to manifest themselves in this branch of trade. This favourable re-action, we understand, has taken place in consequence of her Majesty having, with her usual characteris tic regard for the interests of her subjects, been graciously pleased to patronise and give a p reference to British inanufac tr res.—Standard, - - LONGEVITY AND SINGULARITY. — At a place called Truf lane, in Saddlewortb, lives a person named Robert Buckley, now in the 89th year of his age. He was never married; never was ten miles from his present residence; and never canted a pack weight at once in his life. He washes his own clothes. does his own cleaning, and cooks his own victuals. His brother Charles and wife live in the same house ; he is 82, and she is 78. They are small farmers, and latterly beer-sellers. DISCOVERY OF REMAINS AT MIDDLETON 11 ECTORY.—On Monday last, several stones of rather mossive size were taken up in the ground adjacent to Middleton Rectory, by workmen employed in garden operations in the sito of the ancient moat. This discovery is sufficient to point out tin t in early times the mansion of the incumbent was much mute extensive than at present. Mr. E. Baines, in his notice of Middleton, (History of Lancashire,) has mentioned the rectory .house as bearing traces of having been fortified; but this was probably anterior to its first occupation by the clergyman of the place, and when it was perhaps an abode of Roger de Middleton, an official of the Duchy of Lancaster, or of some members of the local race, AN UNINTENTIONAL ACT OF KINDNESS ON THE PART OF A WHIG-RADICAL OPPONENT.—In consequence of the remarks which appeared in the Guardian of Wednesday eek, relative to a circular lately issued by the South Lancashire Conserva tive Association, and having reference to the expenses of the late county election, a lady, resident in Broughton, has sent the sum of £5O to Mr. Peel, the president of the Borough Conser vative Association, with a request that he would apply it in aid of the fund which is at present being raised for defraying the expenses of that contest. It would seem that if our contem porary's silliness gains him no laurels, it is sometimes service able to his opponents. What a consolation this must be to the unfortunate old scribbler.—Manchester Courier. RACES AT KELsALL.--Last Friday, the lovers of sport in the neighbourhood of Kelsall were gratified with a most extraordi nary race, the conditiohs of which were as follow :—Mr. John Booth, aged 70, to compete on foot with a horse aged 24, be longing:to Mr. George Gregory, of Tarporle v. 120 yards. Booth to have 21 yards start, and Gregory to ride his own horse, for £5. a side. At four o'clock the pair of high-mettled racers were brought to the post in tip-top condition. The horse passed Booth in about the tenth rood, and won cleverly by two roods, and leaped a hedge in splendid steeple chase style. There was a large concourse of spectators.—Chester Chronicle. HOLD ON TO YOUR UMBRELLA.—That is a good piece of ad vice which " 011apod," in the Knickerbocker, gives to his read ers :—" Lend not thy umbrella, nor suffer thou it to be stolen from thee. In this wise did I procure my indisposition. The night was dark, the rains descended, the floods carne and beat against me—the umbrella was loaned—it has never come home. Heaven forgive the borrower! There are some who do not even borrow this in-rainy -weather-much-to-be-desired and requisite article—they steal it, without compunction. I lately heard a man of God, at a Wesleyan conventicle, deliver the following speech from the altar 1 would ad'nounce to the cocrngrega thin, that, probably by mistake, there was left at this house of prayer, this morning, a small cotton umbrella, much damaged by time and tear, and of exceedingly pale plue colour, in the place whereof was taken a very large black silk umbrella, new, and of great beauty. I say, my brethren, it was probably by mistake that, of these articles, the one was taken and the other left, though it is a very improper mistake, and should be dis countenanced, if possible. Blunders of this sort, brethren and sisters, are getting a beetle' too common.' "—American paper. INSOLVENT DEBTORS' COUP.T.—SUMMER CIRCUIT OF THE COMMISSIONERS.—NORTHERN CIRCUIT.—'I'. B.

There continues to be a very good general demand, both from the trade and speculators. The sales yesterday were 5000 bags, and to day the business amounts to 6000. In the two days 3000 have been taken on speculation. The market has closed verb' firmly. s--- LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, MAY 15. Since Tuesday last, the imports of Grain, Flour and Oatmeal from Ireland and Coastways have been to a moderate extent, and the de mand has been equally so ; the prices last quoted for every a rti c l e i n the trade having been barely obtainable here, and in all the Corn mar kets of this district and Yorkshire ;—the weather during the last three or four days has again become very cold and unseasonable, but the appearance of the crops of Grass is more favourable.—The only alteration in the duties on Grain from foreign ports this ; week, is a decrease on Peas of is 6d per quarter,—a decrease of is per quarter on Wheat is anticipated next week ;—some few further parcels of fine fresh Pomeranean red Wheat, in bond, have been sold here, and on the passage at 6s per 701bs, and of Harnburgh Flour and fine foreign Oats at about our quotations, for export.—At this day's market, the millers and dealers continued to be very sparing buyers for immediate wants, of every article in the trade,—purchases of Wheat, after the decline yesterday, in Mark-lane, became known,were made at a small decline, but not sufficient to warrant any decided alteration In general quotations.
