The flower that decks the mountain dell, An' blooms amang the simmer dew, It is the bell, the bonnie bell. The heather bell o' Slevie Trewe ! On Slevie Trewe the sky was blue, On Stevie Trewe the grass was green, And there the lang wild heather grew Wi' blushing 'crest o' crimson sheen. My wee bit house—my hame—was there, Beside the well, the moorland spring, Whar light and little was my care, And I a merry, thoughtless thing! I ken't but little o' the town — Its wealth, its misery, an' crimes; But gambol'd on the heathland brown, The cantie lad o' ither times. What I could play, or work at will Amang my ain auld simmer knowes ; And Oh! I love the heather still, For Freedom heves whar heather grows! What though her hills and ha's be rude, And culture may hae missed the road, 'Mang heather wild, in solitude, There Freedom hath her blest abode ! An' let me wander as I might, Since there we prayed and parted last, Her holy fire an' shining light Were sunk an' set, or waning fast. I needna' say how much I fret, I needna' say how sair I pine ; But mem'ry canna weel forget The frien's an' flowers we lo ed langsyne. An' far an' wide my feet have ranged, By stormy waste, an' watery flood; The warld is changed, and I am changed, But has it been for ony good? An' when, at night, in sleep I sink, About the braes will fancy bide ; An' waking, then, I weep an' think 0' Naniie Logan's ain fireside. I needna wail, there's nane to feel; I needna speak, there's nane to speer ; Sometimes they talk o' hearts o' steel— Gude kens, there's plenty o' them here. An' cunning men have wranged me sair In wicked word and evil will, They couldna' scaith me ony mair, An' yet I maim na' wish them ill. But faitlifie memory lingers on, Amang the heather bells sae braw, Whar' care was cow'd, an' life was fun, E'er yet the fause, fause warld I saw. An' when I dream o' pleasures gane, The tear comes down my wither'd cheek : I just become a second wean, An' what I feel I canna speak. When to the sea the sun had gane, I won'ered at the far red West, On bonnie Slevie Trewe alane, While sitting by the laverock's nest ; Or wended owre the moor at e'en, To Nanny, a' my tales to tell, An' wish'd that Nanny was a queen, For I was rich enough mysel'. An' art thou bale and lieven' yet, My guid auld frien', in ither days? Cauld wather, an' queer folk I've met, Since last I left our heather braes. I think on a' that ye hae said, A kinder heart I never knew ; An' 0 ! I wish that I had made My hame for aye by Slevie Trewe. For weel they ken'd, and lo'ed me there, Whar Freedom lieved, an' heather grew, Ere wicked men, an' withering care Had chilled an' made me what I'm noo. Yet what I was, or what I am, It boots but little now to say— The peaceful scene and holy calm Are fled for ever, and away. Belfast Newslet ter. LITERARY NOTICES. Dublin University Magazine, for October. Dublin : Wm Curry, jun., and Co. London : W. S. Orr and Co. The contents of the Dublin for the present month are more than ordinarily excellent ; and that is saying much. Of Harry Lorrequer's " Our Mess " we have spoken al ready. We have, in addition, several very able articles, amongst which we may number those entitled " Belgium " " Irish Character, by an Anglo-Hibernian"—and the re view of Madden's " Lives of Illustrious Irishmen." The " Narrative of the Affghan War" is continued, and increases in interest. SIMILARITY OF CHARACTER BETWEEN THE TWO NOBLE BROTHERS, THE LATE MAR. QUIS WELLESLEY AND THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. We are right glad that in recording the character of the late Marquis Wellesley in our last Journal, we took occasion, as it was impossible not to do, to allude to that of the elder of the surviving brothers, the Duke of Wellington—whose life may Providence long preserve. We were right also in alluding to the similarity of their characters ; the announce ment of our intention to draw a parallel between them hav ing been the cause of our receiving some hints thereon from two of our correspondents. The first directs our attention to a postscript to Blackwood's Magazine for June, 1810, wherein the character of the Duke is faithfully drawn, par ticularly in some traits in which it bears so remarkable a re semblance to that of the Marquis ; and when we add, upon the authority of our respected and frequent correspondent, that the reputation of the writer in Blackwood stands so high in the literary world as to rank him as one of the best and most eloquent historians of the day, it would be indeed in very bad taste not to prefer an extract from this postscript, which is so pertinent to our object, to any description of our own. Whether our correspon dent alludes to Nitpier or to Alison, we know not ; they are both reputed contributors to Blackwood ; at any rate their names will descend to posterity as two of the most popular historians of their age. Our other correspondent has sent us a parallel between the Carthaginian General Hannibal and the Duke of Wellington, equally applicable to the character of his Grace, except in the vices which stained that of the former. To this communica tion also we gladly give insertion. The article in our last journal could not have been perused by any one acquainted with Indian affairs during the last sixty years, and with those of the Peninsular war in Spain, without being convinced how congenial were the feelings and objects which the two noble brothers always had in view ; both urging upon the Hume Ministers for the time being, as is verified by the despatches of each, now recently made public, the same line of action, the same bold and enlightened and comprehensive measures ; both complaining of the narrow and contracted views of the ministry at home, by which they were enervating the sinews of war, paralyzing the efforts of our armies (particularly in Spain), and thereby pro tracting, to an almost indefinite period, the decisive and glorious conclusion of two of the most sanguinary wars which it lay within the grasp and power of " the Duke" to bring to a successful close. The only difference, indeed, is, that what the two brothers agreed upon and devised in the closet, the Duke alone carried out and accomplished in the field. In regard to another parallel in their characters and con duct, they appear to have each trod in the same steps in their government in Ireland, and in the emancipation of the Roman Catholics; having both advocated, voted for, and eventually witnessed the carrying of this latter measure. But we are forgetting the writer in Blackwood ; who had in the early part of the article which has been pointed out to us, been congratulating himself upon the similarity of his own and the Duke of Wellington's views upon the China war and the opium question : " And here (the writer says) we cannot help saying a word or two of one of the few men in any period who has lived to see his own consecration in human affections, and has had a foretaste of his own immortality on earth. Let us briefly notice the Duke of Wellington's present position amongst us ; which is remarkable, and almost unique. Until within these few years this great man had been adequately appre ciated according to the means which the nation then pos sessed for forming a judgment of his merits. We measured him, that is to say, by his acts. Europe had seen him as a soldier ; had seen him as an ambassador—no ceremonial am bassador, but in a general congress of nations still rocking with the agitations of convulsions without a parallel, as a me diatorial ambassador for adjudicating the rights of the world ; finally, Europe had seen him as a prime minister of England. In the first character, as the leader of the faithful armies' which, under whatever name, did in reality sustain the interests of human nature and the cause of civilization upon earth, it would be idle to speak of him. In the two last characters, it was the general feeling of England, that the Duke of Wel lington had exemplified ' the majesty of plain dealing' upon a scale never before witnessed, and in functions to which such a spirit of dealing was hardly supposed applicable. Thus far we all did him right, but we also did him a great wrong; and it was inevitable that we should do so. It was a wrong which he bore cheerfully, and with the submission Which h e f e l t to b e one o f hi s d u ti es as a pu bli c servant i n a free country. But it must have been bitter and trying to his secret sense of justice, seeing that subsequent revelations have exposed to view a peculiar and preternatural strength, a com pass of power absolutely without precedent, in that very ascriberdgaannhis character to which our popular error for a space of elementary s weakness. Nobody can look back, a general notiona or eight years, but he must remember, as s a taunt often against the Duke of Wellington, ponents, often saan , co urged against us by our political op from habits o f 10,s fly Conceded by ourselves,—that, either perarnent, he was too or from original vice of tern tical opinions ;in ricid and untractable in his poll ips rlaeanour too peremptory, too uncivic ; that, with sb e a u;st virtues of the military cha racter, he combined om e g political life ; that his s no its n worst disqualifications for character of discipline up on th L e e do to impress too martial a a P u u a lic a riervice ; that even his virtues of a civic order were directness and plain-dealing b e i ng ?mot another with this spirit—his peremptory spirit which finds its aspect of that i proper place in a _ l and that, finally, as to the substantial merits camp of nationa ; w ants or grievance s, a p art from the de and manner of his u f Or pa e:t ale ini r a s ting administration, not less by temper than b y his modes of ex meinorabler" perience, the Duke was incacitated spirit of his age, and stood aloof . from a the thies. Thus stood public opinion, when a retribution was rendered to the Duke's merits, and a sa a o ct oo of ment raised to his reputati on, such as will co-exi st with our - language, in the series of his Despatches, &c., Pu bli shed by Colonel Gurwood. The effect was profound. The Duke of Wellington had long been raised as far beyond the benefits, as he is beyond the need, of any trivial enthusiasm derived from momentary sources or vulgar arts : and this book was fitted to engage the attention of none but the highly culti vated. The reverence of the land for the Duke's character, the gratitude of the land for the Duke's services, scarcely seemed open to increase. But undoubtedly a depth of tone and a solemnity approaching to awe, were impressed henceforth upon the feelings with which all thoughtful men regarded the Duke of Wellington as an intellectual being. Now, first, it was understood what quality of intellect had been engaged in our service, moving amongst what multiplied embarrassments, thwarted by what conflicts even in friendly quarters, winning its way by what flexibility of address, watching all obstacles by what large compass of talents, and compensating every disadvantage for the public service by what willing sacrifices of selfish feeling. Were it not for the singleness of purpose, for the perfect integrity, for the absolute self-dedication, and the sublime simplicity, we would sa an ere ' is a Machiavelian subtlety of under standing I iith -- apostolical grandeur of purpose, there is here combined 1 address of a finished intriguer; and for a service of nations upon the grandest scale, we see displayed a restless and a versatile spirit of submission to circumstances and to characters, according to all the experience of this world, belongs naturally_ to modes of selfishness the ins st intense. The wisdom of in matters of I N-suffering . ; the policies of al lowance Practice; the spirit of indulge ice to errors that were; reieeinatile; the transcendent power to draw into unity of effect, elements the most heterogeneous, and tempers the most incompatible; in short, that spirit of civic accommodation to the times in which we had supposed him to have been most wanting, and that spirit of regard to the bold national temperament of the armies he led, which was held most irreconcileable with martial discipline; —precisely these were the qualities which the Gurwood correspondence has exposed as the foremost of the Duke's endowments : in any case, the very rarest endow ments; and in this case, amongst an army so high-spirited, the most operative for the final success. In short, to sun► up the truth by the sharpest antithesis, instead of ruling in his civic administration by means of military maxims, the Duke of Wellington applied to military measures and to the conduct of armies that spirit of civic policy which, in times less critical by far, had not been attempted by generals of nations the most democratic. " Such is the retributory service, late but perfect, rendered to the Duke's character. The shades of evening are now stealing over his life : and for him, also, that night is coming in which no man can work. But as yet no abatement is vi sible in his energies of public duty. Tenderness, as towards a ward of the nation, is now beginning to mingle with our veneration. And, in the course of nature, the anxieties of a mighty people will soon be suspended on his health, as they have been long suspended on his majestic wisdom." A CURIOUS INSTANCE OF INTERMITTING MADNESS IN THE OLD DOWAGER O'GRADY. Her son's death had, by the violence of the shock, drag ged her from the region of fiction in which she habitually existed ; but, after the funeral, she relapsed into all her strange aberration, and her bird-clock and her chimney-pot head-dress were once more in requisition. The old lady had her usual attendance from her grand daughter, and the customary offering of flowers was ren dered, but they were not so cared for as before, and Char lotte was dismissed sooner than usual from her morning's attendance, and a new favourite received in her place. And, " of all the birds in the air," who should this favourite be but Master Ratty. Yes !—Ratty--the caricaturist of his grandmamma, was, " for the nonce," her closeted companion. Many a guess was given as to " what in the world" grand mamma could want with Ratty ; but the secret was kept be tween them, for this reason, that the old lady kept the reward she promised Ratty, for preserving it, in her own hands, un til the day she required on his part should be accomplished ; and the shilling a day, to which Ratty looked forward, kept him faithful. Now the duty Master Ratty had to perform was instructing his grandmamma how to handle a pistol; the bringing up quick to. the mark, and levelling by " the sight," was ex plained, but a difficulty arose in the old lady's shutting her left eye, which Ratty declared to be indispensable, and for some time Ratty was obliged to stand on a chair and cover his grandmamma s eye with his hand while she took aim ; this was found inconvenient, however, and the old lady substi tuted a black silk shade, to obfuscate her sinister luminary in her exercises, which now advanced to snapping the lock, and knocking sparks from the flint, which made the old lady wink with her right eye. When this second habit was over come, the " dry" practice, that is, without powder, was given up, and a " flash in the pan" was ventured upon, but this made her shut both eyes together, and it was some time before she could prevail on herself to hold her eye fixed on her mark, and pull the trigger. This, however, at last, was accomplished, and when she had conquered the fear of seeing the flash, she adopted the plan of standing before a handsome old-fashioned looking-glass, which reached from the ceiling to the floor, and levelling the pistol at her own reflection before it, as if she were engaged in mortal combat, and every time she snapped and burned priming, she would exclaim, " I hit that time, I know—l can kill him—tremble, villain!" Now, as long as this pistol practice had the charm of novelty for Ratty, it was all very well ; but when, day by day, the strange mistakes and nervousness of his grand mamma became less piquant, from repetition, it was not such good fun ; and when the rantipole boy, after as much time as he wished :to devote to the old woman's caprice, endea voured to emancipate himself; and was countermanded, an outburst of " Oh, bother:" would take place, till the grand mother called up the prospective shillings to his view, and Ratty bowed before the altar of Mammon. But even Mam mon failed to keep Ratty loyal ; for that heathen god, 14lomus, claimed a superior allegiance ; Ratty worshipped the " cap and bells" as the true crown, and " the bauble" as the sovereign sceptre. Besides, the secret become trou blesome to him, and he determined to let the whole house know what " gran" and he were about, in a way of his own The young imp, in the next day's practice, worked up the grandmamma to a state of greatexcitement, urging her to take a cool and determined aim at the looking-glass. " Cover him, well, gran," said Ratty. " I will," said the dowager, resolutely. " You ought to be able to hit him at six paces." " I stand at twelve paces." " No—you are only six from the looking-glass." " But the reflection, child, in the mirror, doubles the distance." " Bother !" said Ratty. your eye, and don't wink." " Ratty, you are singularly obtuse to the charms of science.' " What's science ?" said Ratty. " Why, gunpowder, child, for instance, is made by science." " I never saw his name, then, on a canister," said Ratty. " Pigon, Andrew and Whirs, or Mister Dartford Mills, are the men for gunpowder. You know nothing about it, gran." " Ratty, you are disrespectful, and will not listen to in struction. I knew Kirwan---the great Kirwan, the chemist, who always wore his hat—" " Then he knew chemistry better than manners," said Ratty. " Ratty, you are very troublesome,—l desire you listen, sir,—Kirwan, sir, told me all about science ; and the Dublin Society have his picture, with a bottle in his hand—" " Then he was fond of drink," said Ratty. " Ratty, don't be pert. To come back to what I was originally saying ; I repeat, sir, I am at twelve paces from my object; six from the mirror, which, doubling by reflec tion, makes twelve ; such is the law of optics. I suppose you know what optics are ?" " To be sure I do." " Tell me, then." " Our eyes," said natty. " Eyes ! ' exclaimed the old lady in arnaxe. "To be sure," answered Ratty, boldly. "Didn't I hear the old blind man at the fair asking charity ' for the loss of his blessed optics ?" _ " Here, take the pistol—mind " Oh, what lamentable ignorance, my child!" exclaimed the old lady. " Your tutor ought to he ashamed of him self." "So he is," said Ratty. "He hasn't had a pair of new breeches for the last seven years ; and he hides himself whenever he sees mamma or the girls." " Oh, you ignorant child! Indeed, Ratty, my love, you must study. I will give you the renowned Kirwan's book. Charlotte tore some of it for curl papers ; but there's enough left to enlighten you with the sun's rays, and reflection and refraction—" I know what that is, said Ratty. " What ?" " Refraction." " And what is it, dear ?" " Bad behaviour," said Ratty. " Oh heavens !" exclaimed his grandmother. " Yet it is," said Ratty, stoutly ; " the tutor says I'm re fractory when I behave ill ; and he knows Latin better than you." " Ratty, Ratty !" you are hopeless !" exclaimed his _ . grandmamma. " No, I am not," said Ratty ; " I'm always hoping. And I hope Uncle Robert will break his neck some day, and leave us his money." The old woman turned up her eyes, and exclaimed, " You wicked boy !" " Fudge !" said Ratty ; " he's an old shaver, and we want it; and, indeed, gran, you ought to give me ten shillings for ten days' teaching, now ; and there's a fair next week. and 1 want to buy things." Ratty, I told you, when you made me perfect in the use of a weapon, I would pay you. My promise is sacred, and I will observe it with that scrupulous honour which has ever been the characteristic of the family ; as soon as I hit some thing, and satisfy myself of my mastery over the weapon, the money shall be yours, but not till then." " Oh, very well,' said Ratty ; go on then.—Ready—don't bring up your arm that way, like the handle of a pump, but raise it nice from the elbow—that's it.—Ready—fire! Ah, there you blink your eye, and drop the point of your pistol— try another. Ready—fire !—That's better.—Now steady the next time." The young devil then put a charge of powder and ball into the pistol he handed his grandmother, who took steady aim at her reflection in the miaror. and at the words, " Ready— fire!" bang went the pistol—the magnificent glass was smashed—the unexpecled recoil of the weapon made it drop from the hand of the dowager, who screamed with astonish ment at the report and the shock, and did not see for a mo ment the mischief she bad done; but when the shattered mirror caught her eye, she made a rush at Ratty, who was screeching with laughter in the far corner of the room, where he ran when he had achieved his trick ; and he was so help less from the excess of his cachinnation, that the old lady cuffed him without his being able to defend himself. At last he contrived to get out of her clutches, and jammed her against the wall with a table so tightly that she roared " Murder!" The report of the pistol ringing through the house brought all its inmates to the spot ; and there the cries of murder from the old lady led them to suppose some awful tragedy, instead of comedy, was enacting inside ; the door was locked, too, which increased the alarm, and was forced in the moment of terror from the outside. When the crowd rushed in, Master Ratty rushed out, and left the astonished family to gather up the bits of the story as well as they could, from the broken looking-glass and the cracked dowager. THE ELOQUENCE OF THE TEXAS BAR.--May it please the court—the learned barrister reminds me of an Andalu sian bull, with nostrils distended, eyes dilated, neck bowed, tail curled, roaring and leaping, plunging and bellowing, and charging over the Alpine heights and wide-extended plains of jurisprudence ; but, may it please the court, the gentleman has failed in his demurrer. THE MINER.—" There's danger in the mines, old man," I exclaimed to a miner, who, with his arms, bent, was lean ing against the sides of the immense vault, absorbed in medi tation—" it must be a frightful life." The old ma n l oo k e d with a steadfast, but somewhat vacant, stare, and then, in half-broken sentences, he muttered, " Danger—where is there not danger,—on the earth or beneath it, on the moun tain or in the valley, on the ocean or in the quiet of nature's most hidden spot, where bath not death left some token of his presence ?" " Truly," I replied, " but the vicissitudes of life are various : the sailor seeks his living on the waters, and he knows each moment that they might engulf him ; the hunter seeks death in the wild woods, the soldier on the field of battle, and the miner knows not but that the spot where he now stands, to-morrow may be his tomb." "It is so, indeeed," replied the old man ; "we find death in the means we seek to perpetuate life; 'tis a strange riddle, who shall solve it ?" " Have you long followed this occupation ?" I asked, somewhat struck with the old man's manner. " From a boy : I drew my first breath in the mines; I shall yield it up in their gloom." " You have seen some of these vicissitudes," I said, " to which you just now alluded ?" "Yes," he replied, with a faltering voice, " I have. There was a time when three small boys looked up to me, and called me father ; they were sturdy striplings. Now, it seems but yesterday they stood before me in the pride of their strength, and filled, too, with a father's vanity. But the Lord c h as t enet h th e prou d h e art; where are they now?

MISCELLANEOUS. Brighton is very full of company at the present moment. OMNIBUSES IN THE DESERT.—The Great Liverpool, which sailed on Saturday for Alexandria, took out several omnibuses for crossing the desert, and an iron steam-boat to ply on the Malurioudie Canal. In consequence of a political quarrel, says a letter from Barcelona, a captain of the regi men t o f G ua d a l a jara, in gar rison at that place, challenged 18 officers of the same regi ment. Five of them accepted the challenge, and were all more or less wounded by this wholesale duellist. THE MORMONITES.—Between 20 and 30 families who resided in the Potteries and neighbourhood, set off from Longport on Sunday, in a boat for Liverpool, with the inten tion of embarking at that port for the new settlement of the Mormonites or " Latter Day Saints" in the United States. —Birmingham Advertiser. MR. EDMUND BURDEKIN, LATE MANAGING DIRECTOR OF THE BANK OF MANCHESTER.-By an advertisement in our present number, it will be seen, that Mr. Edmund Bur dekin, late managing director of the Bank of Manchester, in consequence of various irregularaties in connection with the bank, which have just come to light, has adsconded : we understand, in fact he has gone off to America.—Manchester Guardian. SOUTH LANCASJIIRE BANK.—The South Lancashire Bank, which voluntarily closed its doors for business a few weeks since, is on the eve of paying 15s. in the pound on the paid-up capital to the shareholders, and the remaining ss. . . probably before Christmas. Considering the difficult period which has passed over since the formation of this bank, in 1835-6, great praise is due to the board of management for having preserved the capital entire.—Manchester Advertiser. We have heard it stated that the long-established and wealthy firm of Baring, Brothers, and Co., have returned their profits to the income-tax commissioners, on the average of the lastlthree years, at less than £l5O, and that they have requested the proper authorities to send clerks to examine their books and 'ascertain the correctness of the returns. This strange circramstance is attributed to their dealings with some of the repudiating states of America. It cannot, however, affect the stability of the house, for some of the partners are known to be the richest merchants in the world, but there are thousands of reputed rich firms in this country which could not afford to make such a return.—Globe.— (Fudge). The Globe has since apologised for the insertion of this paragraph. The Journal des Havre gives the following narrative of a remarkable act of audacity, committed by a slaver in the roadstead at Congo :—She lay-to for several days in presence of the English brig Rolla, each watching the other carefully At length 4stermined to risk all, the slave-ship, in ogoltiaY, sent her boats on shore and brought off a number of - blacks, who were kept in readiness for her, and, having stowed them in her hold, prepared for sailing. In the mean time the the British brig had been observing her proceedings, and at length sent off her boats to make the search and seizure; but as they apprettched the slaver she unmasked her guns, and, levelling them at the ailetlilants, fired and killed 14 men. During the confusion the unexpected resistance occasioned the slaver slipped her cable and got clear away, before the Rolla could be made ready to follow her. MurtnEß.—On the night of Thursday the 29th ult., a very dreadful murder was committed at Stanley, about four miles from Derby. One of two Miss Goddards, who resided in .a large house, which stood alone, and not within one hun dred yards from any other residence, at Stanley, was mur dered by two men who broke into the house and robbed it. The villains got into the house by means of Dulling off some slates of the roof of a coal-house. After obtaining an entrance they went and demanded money of one of the sisters who had not gone to bed, and she gave them two sovereigns and a few shillings, but they wished to have £5 more, and beat her severely for not satisfiying their demands. They then went into the bed-room of the other sister, whom they beat and wounded in a most dreadful manner, leaving her all but dead. She died on Friday. The Two Miss Goddards were considerably advanced in years, the deceased (Martha) being in her 70th year, and the survivor (Sarah) but few years younger. They have resided alone in this (the family) house, without servant or assistant, for more than forty years ; and although their habits were somewhat eccentric, they had the reputation of being very charitable, kind, and humane ladies. Their father was the Vicar of Tideswell, in this county, and they possessed a comfortable independence. In April last, a burglary was committed on the same premises. A few weeks ago a second robbery was committed. After this second burglary, arrangements were made by friends for two proper parties to sleep in the house, but the Miss Goddards would not hear of it, and they therefore continued to live in the same way as usual. An inquest was held on the body of the deceased on Saturday, and a verdict of, " Wilful Murder against some person or persons unknown," was returned. Two men are in custody, who were apprehended at Belper, charged with the murder, and we understand the evidence is very clear. A MARRIAGE ON THE TAPlS.—There is a marriage " to ward" which creates the greatest sensation, both on account of the high rank of the putative bridegroom, and still more through the exalted position of the future bride ; this nia riage d'eclat, which the haut monde says is on the eve of accomplishment, is between the Most Noble the Marquis of Douglas and her Serene Highness Princess Mary Amelia, daughter of the Dowager Duchess of Baden. Her highness is 25 years of age, and she is as beautiful as she is accom plished, inheriting the qualities of her mother, the Princess Stephanie, whose reputation for charms of mind and person is proverbial throughout the continent. The Marquis of Douglas is 33 years of age. Some objections have existed as to the marriage, on account of the promessa being the daughter of a sovereign princess ; but we hear that these objections were waived when it became known that the young marquis would inherit the triple dukedom of Ilamil ton, Brandon, and Chatelherault. He is besides heir to the glories of the Arrans and Douglases ; and his direct ancestor in 1542 was not only chosen Regent of Scotland, unani mously, but declared by parliament heir presumptive to the crown, should his ward Queen Mary die without issue. The Duchess Dowager of Baden's residence is at Manheim ; and there the Duchess of Hamilton is staying at this moment. If this marriage take place, as confidently announced in the highest circles, the Marquis of Douglas will become brother in-law to the hereditary Prince of Hohenzollern Zigmarin gen ; and also to Prince Wasa, son of the unfortune deposed King of Sweden. We have only to add to the above, that the confident assertions as to the above marriage surprised us ; as it had previously been reported that a young earl, whose inheritance will only be petty in its origin, was the favoured suitor of the young princess. —Court Journal. THE GYPOIES.—A short time since a very remarkable cir cumstance took place in the New Forest, Hampshire, in the instance of a gypsey of the name of Lee having been rejected from the fraternity. The spot where the scene took place was at Bolton's Bench, near Lyndhurst. Between 300 and 400 gypsies, belonging to different tribes, including the Lees, Stanleys, and Coopers, were: assembled upon this unusual occasion. The concourse consisted of a great many females, and so secretly had the meeting been got up, that scarcely a person residing in the neighbourhood was aware that a cir cumstance of this sort was about to take place. The offender, a handsome-looking man, apparently between thirty and forty years of age, was placed i n th e m iddl e o f a r i ng , com posed of the King of the Gypsies and the patriarchs of dif ferent tribes. This ring was followed by a second, made up of the male portiod of the assembly, and an exterior circle was formed by the women. The king, who was one of the Lees, a venerable old man, and one who.looked as if he had seen upwards of 90 summers, then addressed the culprit for nearly an hour, but in a tongue that was perfectly strange to the bystanders. The address was delivered in a most im pressive manner, as might be, conceived by the vehemence of the gesticulations which accompanied it. None but the Gypsies themselves had the slightest knowledge of the crime winch had been committed by the offender, but it must have been one evidently very obnoxious to the tribe, as the act of explosion among them is an exceedingly rare occurrence. As soon as the king had finished his speech to the condemned man, he turned round and harangued the whole of the Gyp sies assembled, and, expressing himself in English. informed them that Jacob Lee had been expelled from among them, that he was no longer one of their fraternity, and that he do leave the camp of the Gypsies for ever. The king then ad vancing towards him spat upon him, and the circle which en closed him simultaneously opened to admit of his retreating from among them, whilst they smote him with the branches of trees as he left the ground. The meeting then broke up, and the parties assembled went their different ways, some of them having come to witness the tribunal from a considerable distance. The whole ceremony, which took place under an aged oak in the forest, was a very imposing one, and being a, very unusual, almost an unprecedented, occurrence in these parts, created an intense degree of interest among the by standers. THE MATRIMONIAL HOAX AT BRISTOL.—Since the committal of Ann Bryers and Mary Ann Morgan for re examination, for conspiring in effecting a marriage between the latter and Mr. Woolley, the Bristol timber merchant, the prisoners have been kept separate in the county gaol, one of them (Bryers) being confined in the Infirmary, and her com panion in one of the prison wards. As the circumstances relating to their detention are pretty well known in the gaol they have become objects of curiosity to their fellow prisoners. Ever since their incarceration they have both been living on the gaol allowance, being without the means of procuring any additional comforts. bryers has been vi sited by a female, the wife of a respectable tradesman, in Fore-street, Cripplegate, who has been long acquainted with her family. During the interview, which was in the presence of Mr. Keane, the governor of the county gaol, the visitor asked Bryers what could have been her motive in practising such imposition upon a person so nearly allied to her as Mr. Wolley, and with whom she had been living in the capacity of housekeeper ever since the decease of his wife, her sister. Bryers, in reply, said that she could not account for it, but said that it came into her bead in consequence of Mr. Woolley first mentioning to her the name of Miss Louisa Poole King; that some weeks ago Mr. Woolley told her that he met Miss King in the street in Bristol, that he bowed to her in passing, and that she returned the salute with apparent pleasure ; and he went on to say that he was very much cap tivated with her—that he should use every means in his power to awake a sympathetic feeling in her breast, and that be expected that he should ultimately succeed in forming a matrimonial alliance with so accomplished and wealthy a young lady. It was subsequent to the above conversation the notion of characterising a joke upon her brother-in-law came into her head, and to effect her purpose she wrote a letter to him in the name of Louisa Poole King, in order to create a belief in his mind that the young lady was ena moured with him, and that she was ready and willing to be stow upon the object of her affections her hand and heart. After she had written the first letter to her brother-in-law she found that it answered the desired purpose, and that he was absolutely enraptured at its receipt; and from that in stant a correspondence took place between them, which ulti mately led to the matrimonial affair between Mr. Woolley and Mary Ann Morgan. That she (Bryers was not ac quainted with Morgan till some time after the correspond ence had been going forward, and that meeting with her in the Corn-market at Bristol, and perceiving that she would answer admirably to personate Miss Louisa Poole King in the affair, she (Bryers) got acquainted with her ; and as she said she had no objection to a husband, the marriage was brought about between the young girl and Mr. Woolley, as already described. Bryers, in conclusion, assured the fe male who visited her in the gaol, that at first she intended to have a bit of fun with her brother-in-law, but, finding that she had gone too far with the joke, she was afraid to divulge the real secret to him, and therefore carried it on until she effected the marr i age b etween the parties. The Bristol understand Mirror, that, however, byh hints e at will a moti ve,Mrs. s y Woolley,i saying—" 1:r i it ` the demise o rma r r e r a ia s g o e n o fo f r M th r e . 4 sister, Miss Bri ers , i s ent i tled to a certain sum of money on aynfford some extraordinary Woolle y.I f conduct thi Briers." It is said that Mr. W oo ll ey i s so un fi tte d f or busi ness that he has dissolved p a t ners hi p, an d i s a b out to leave Bristol. It is a singular cir cumstance t h at, at t h e very time when this singular case actually occurre d at B r i sto l , there i s f p u blishing, in Colbourn 's Neu, Monthly Magazine, an amus b e o t u Miss i leer m ing story, entitled "Phineas Quiddy ; or Sheer Industry." It is from the pen of Mr. Poole, the author of Paul Pry. Quiddy is a mere muckworm , who having, by " s h eer in dustry," become rich, is still anxous to acquire more money. He becomes acquainted with a Miss St. Egremont, who had been the kept mistress of a deceased London merchant, but whom Quiddy was made to believe, by a Mrs. Fleecer, a lodging-house keeper, was a rich widow. Miss St. Egre mont hated Quiddy, who was an ugly, vulgar fellow, but Mrs. Fleecer overcame her dislike to his person and manners, and she consented, in order to ootain a home, to bestow her hand on Phineas Quiddy. The story has arrived at the actual marriage of the pair, who have left town for Brighton to en joy the honeymoon. The reader of the real occurrence will not fail to recognise the striking points of resemblance be tween it and the fictitious narrative.. Both Wooley and Quiddy imagined they were marrying rich women, and both were the dupes of cunning and artful females. THE POPE AT SEA.—The Semophore de Marseilles, of the 28th ult., contains some particulars of a visit of the Pope on board the French Levant steamer Eante, at Civita Vecchia, on the 19th ult. This vessel had just entered the harbour when his Holiness was sailing out in the brig of war of twelve guns, and Sc. Peter and St. Paul, escorted by the small steamers lately constructed for his service in England. The Pontifical flag was immediately hoisted on board the French steamer, and a salute of 21 guns was fired. Two hours after wards the Sovereign Pontiff, accompanied by a numerous suite, composed of cardinals, prelates, and superior officers, repaired on board the Dante. The Pope, after visiting the vessel, conversed a long time with the officers of the staff and the French Consul, commended the services rendered to re ligion by the Levant packets, who gave a free passage to the missionaries and nuns of different orders, and extolled the virtues of Louis Philippe and the piety of the Queen, whom he pronounced to be a saint. A collection was next offered to the Holy Father and his health drunk ; after which, every body on board was permitted to kiss his slipper, and another salute of 21 rounds announced his departure. Before leaving the steamer, Cardinal Fosti distributed, in the Pope's name, valuable medals and beads among the officers, and left a large sum of money to be divided among the crew. APPREHENSION OF AN ANTI-CORN-LAW MILLOWNER. —On Monday, one of the anti-corn-law manufacturers of Ashton, Mr. George Southam, of the firm of J. H. South= and Brothers, was arrested and taken before the magistrates at Ashton. It appeared that Mr. South= was chairman at a meeting of turn-outs, on the 9th of August. The witness, William Schofield, an operative spinner, said : " Pilling proposed that none of us should resume work till we got a fair day's wages for a fair day's labour. Mr. Southam put the resolution to the meeting, arid said that those who ap proved of the resolution must hold up their hands. He then said, 'To the contrary,' after which, he said, Ladies and gentlemen, it appears to be carried unanimously.' He said he was a Chartist, and was born a Chartist.—Mr. Hud son objected to this sort of evidence.—Witness: Pilling pro posed a resolution, that we must all go to Manchester, and go to stop all the mills ; and as it was a rainy morning, they had better go to breakfast, (those who had any to go to,) and he would come again at ten o clock. There was an amend ment proposed, to the effect, that we should go to Manches ter at once. Mr. Southern said, There is nothing like time present. Do you qo presently, and I will lead you up.' Pilling then got up, and said, " Well, ladies and gentlemen, as lam beaten, lam like to give in. You have got a cotton master with you ; you cannot be much hurt. I'll go to breakfast, and I'll follo w you . I left the meeting, and did not go to Manchester. Mr. Southern said, that, if the peo ple would go for the repeal of the corn laws, he would stick with them upon any question they would propose." Mr. Southam was liberated on bail, himself in £lOO, and two sureties in £5O each. SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Three o'clock. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—Tnis DAY. (From Messrs. R. MAKIN & SONS' Circular.) Upon a partial change of wind we have to note an in creased supply of Wheat and Flour, with a more liberal influx of Oats and Oatmeal from Ireland than for some time past ; but, except a limited quantity of Wheat and Malt, the arrivals coastwise since this day se'nnight are still quite insignificant ; and although during the past week we had little to notice from abroad, a few Grain vessels thence are at band, but not yet reported. Having no extensive buyers at our Corn Exchange to-day, and holders of Wheat being generally more disposed to effect sales than last week, all descriptions of English and foreign declined in value 2d., and Irish, being further depreciated this morning, must be noted 3d. to 4d. per 70 lbs. cheaper than on Tuesday last. States and Canadian Flour, upon a very moderate demand, reverted to our quotations of this day se'nnight, and both English and Irish were taken off less freely at the decline of Friday. A few small parcels of fine English new Malting Barley appeared to-day, for which 355. per quarter was required, but no actual sales transpired ; and grinding samples being in very slow request, receded 2d. to 3d. per 601bs. Beans hardly maintained the reduced rates above mentioned. Pease, recovering a little from the late depression, rated nearly equal to this day week.

We have had a slow trade during the week for all articles, at prices much the same for each as on this day week, with the ex ception of Oats and Oatmeal, which have further declined in value. At Wakefield yesterday, although the supply of Wheat was small. prices were barely supported. and at Liverpool, (a change of wind having brought in a considerable accession .of supply) the prices of Irish produce generally tended downwards. At our Corn Ex change this morning, we have a slow trade for every article. In the value of Wheat, there is no quotable variation, but the turn of prices is in favour of the buyer ; the same may be said of Flour, the demand for which is confined to the best qualities. There is no improvement in the sale for Oats, which has long been and still continues to be of the most limited nature, and we again reduce our qw - -tations Id per bushel. There is a fair retail inquiry for Oatmeal, but prices gradually declining during the week, must now be stated fully Is per load under those of last Saturday, Malt, Beans and Peas, without alteration. LIVERPOOL COLONIAL MARKET, OCT. 7. Sugar.—The market continues very dull, and the sales only amount to 250 hhds., chiefly good and fine descriptions, without alteration in price, but brown and middling qualities can be ouly sold at reduced rates. 1350 bags of Bengal have been taken by the Grocers, chiefly from 66s to 66s 6d per cwt., according to quality. No sales in Mauritious. Foreign.—The sales are confined to 150 brls. Pernambuco, at I4s for ordinary brown, and 21s per cwt. for middling white. Molasses.—The sales amount to 300 pun , .

Our Butter market has been very quiet since th is day se'nnight and although we think - there is a disposition on the part of many holders to reduce the currency, still the actual sales of the week have - been at full prices. The temporary dullness may be attributed idsome measure to a sudden pressure on the money market. — the effect of a strike of son e first-cute builds iu Manchester Business in the Provision trade is well nigh suspended. To.mor.. row a large quantity. of American Beef and Pork is advertised for sale by auction. This may possibly be for the purpose of establish ing something like a steady value ;—the prices have latterly been very rambling. LIVERPOOL CATTLE MARKET, OCTOBER 10. We have had a large market to-day, which was numerously at tended with buyers from Birmingham, Wolverhampton, &C. in consequence of which there has been a brisk demand for Beef, and last week's prices were again fully supported. The number of Sheep was about the same as last week, but generally speaking of an inferior quality. Prime Wethers were about aidl. lb dearer ; all other's much the same. No foreign Cattle have made their appearance to-day. Prime Beef aid to 6d ; middling aid to sd; Bulls and Segs aid to 4id ; Prime Wethers lid to tiid ; Ewes 5d to rid, sinking the offal.

Without any apparent or intelligible' cause, the holders have manifested a greater desire to effect sales during the last few days than for some time past, which has led to a decline in the prices of the fair and higher qualities of American of nearly id per lb, and of the midding and inferior qualities -id per. Brazil and Egyptian are also lower by fully -kd per lb, and are extremely dull of sale. Surats are likewise offering very freely at the same reduction. The demand has been very limited, the sales amounting only to :6,490 bales, of which 5 0 American and 200 Surat are for export, and 1000 American and 1500 Surat on speculation. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the 30th ult. to the 6th instant, inclusive. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE OCTOBER 7: The averages this week make no alteration in the duties on any article either of foreign or colonial produCe. A few parcels of Wheat and Oats, with a good supply of Oatmeal and a moderate quantity of Flour, have arrived from Ireland since Tuesday, mostly by steamers ; but the wind remaining contrary, no foreign ships are reported, and from Canada only one vessel with 2831 barrels of Flour. The weather continuing as favourable as possible for all agricultural pursuits, and the soil is in admirable order for the reception of the seed, the farmers around us are actively en gaged in securing the Potato crop, and in autumn tillage generally ; accounting mainly for the scanty deliveries of new Grain from our home growers since harvest, and in some measure to- a reluctance on their part to accept the present rate of prices : ere long, however, the supply from them may be expected to increase, and in the. interim we may observe, that the samples of new 'Wheat, occasionally brought forward, have proved of superior quality, and, with few exceptions, in excellent condition. Similar remarks are applicable to much Wheat of this year's growth from Ireland, and an extension of supply thence is consequently anticipated. The transactions in the Corn trade, during the last two days, have been very limited in amount, but generally with out any perceptible change in prices. At-our market this morning, upon a mi } ling attenclgice of town and country millers, holders cf foreign Wifeat evinced a tolerable degree of firmness, and effected sales of most descriptions to a moderate extent, at or nearly the rates previously noted. Irish Wheats, on the contrary, were much more difficult to sell than of late, and with some further arrivals to-day, not in time to appear in our import note subjoined, prices declined 2d to 3d per 701bs. English new Wheats may also be considered rather cheaper. States and Canadian Flour, moving off a little more freely, realised an advance of 6d. per barrel; but home-made and Irish, with the prospect of better supplies, were Is. per sack lower. Barley and Malt remained in precisely the same state as on Tuesday ; whilst Beans and Pease were scarcely noticed, and receded in value Is per quarter. LIVERPOOL PR . CES CURRENT.
