vrortaino parliamtnt. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-TUESDAY. In reply to questions from Mr. BAILLI E, why, in respect to losses sustained by British subjects in foreign countries, differ ent courses had been pursued by the British Government to wards the States of Europe and the United States of America; and whether the representatives of Austria and Russia had intimated that British subjects would be allowed to reside in those states unless they renounced, to a certain extent, the pro tection of their own country, _ _ _ Lord PALMERSTON replied, with reference to the first ques tion, that the Government had laid down no such broad doc trine as M r. Baillie supposed; that all casesof losses sustained by British subjects in foreign countries are governed by their own peculiar circumstances; that while it was impossible to main tain that in every case foreigners were entitled to compensa tion for such losses, on the other hand it would not be denied that there were cases in which, b) the law of nations, com pensation could be justly claimed by one Government of another, and the demands made upon the Greek Government fell within the principle of that doctrine. With regard to the second question, it was true that the Austrian and Russian Governments, especially the former, in stating their opinions. not on the Greek claims, but on other claims of a similar kind, lad suggested the proposition referred to; but it was only hypothetically, in the way of argument, nothing more; and even the argument had been practically abandoned by the Austrian Government, which, in the case of an Austrian brig wrecked and plundered on the coast of Ireland, had claimed On behalf of its subjects, a compensation which this Govern ment had granted, The Greek Loan, he add.d. in answer to Mr. COCHRANE, stood upon different grounds, having been guaranteed by three Powers, one of which could not act beyond a certain point without concert with the others. Mr. FRENCH moved a series of resolutions, to the effect that no perry anent system of poor rebel in Ireland can be bene ficially carried out without the strict application of in-door zslief; that the system of appointment of vice-guardians, with unlimited powers of taxation, should be abolished ; that the present system of administration of the Poor-law is too costly; and that it is unjust to throw the entire support of the poor on -tine species of property. On a division the motion was nega tived by 90 to 65. The Riai(way Amendment Bill, as amended, was considered, and several clauses were added, the third reading being fixed for Friday week. HOUSE OF COMMONS.-WEDNESDAY The adjourned debate on the education bill was resumed by Mr. C. ANsTEir, who thought the country was indebted to Mr. V. J. Fox for bringing forward a measure of such importance. Mr. H. DitummoNn thought that all scientific education was only calculated to make sceptics, and as there was no hope of anything effectual being done without the aid of the Church. he should oppose the bill. Mr. P. WOOD denied that religious differences had at all stood in the way of education. On the contrary, there was a period when the only education to be obtained at all was the education •inculcated by religious institutions. The oldest education school in the kingdom was established by Williarri of Wickham, between 400 and SCO years ago, and that was foundeal as a school essentially for religious education, although secular education was also liberally accorded to the public. . Mr. M. GuksoN admitted that the clergy of all denomina tions had done a vast deal to promote education, but public opinion was beginning to manifest itself strongly in favour of secular education. Sooner or later a system founded on that Of the hon. member for Oldham must be adopted. Mr. NAPIER objected to the principle of the bill Mr. W. J. FOX replied, and the house divided, when the second reading was negatived by a majority of 287 to 58. The bill was consequently lost. A HOUSE OF LORDS.-THURSDAY The Sunday Fairs Preventlion Bill was read the third time and passed. xchequer Bills Bill was read a third time and passed . _ The Marquis of LANSDOWNE appealed to Lord Stanley to gostpone his motion relative to the affairs of Gre ece, on the ground that the negociations with France were not yet brought to a close ; but, he added, that the result would be known in a few days. . . Lora STANLEY very reluctantly assented to the proposition, and fixed the motion for Monday week, with a e istinct under standing that it should posit v.ily come en upon that day. '1 he Marquis of LANSDOWNE then moved the second reading of the Parliamentary Vot , r ; (Ireland) Hill, the principles of which he explainer at cons d 2; a ;le length, contending that the extension of the franchise, and a reduction of the qualification, which is contemplatech were necessary to preserve the electelral body upon a proper basis. Lord STANLEY attributed the reduced constituency in Irehttnd to the apathy of the people, and contended that the proposed franchise would not be to secure independent votes; the .£8 franchise would throw the constituency into the hands o; the priests. He objected to the bill upon the principle that property was now constituent in the right of voting; and next, that the lower class of the constituency were compelled to be upon the register. He should not, however, offer any opposition to the second reacting of the bill, but in committee he should endea• vc ur to amend mr st of its provisions, The bill was read a second time. HOUSE OF COMMONS—Trivasnmr Mr. DIsnAELI, pursuant to notice, presented a petition, siened by 15,130 farmers and labourers of the county i•alatine of Lancaster, complaining of the Parliament with reteience to the productive labour of the county, and of undue foreign com petition. The petition also prayed for protection to agriculture. (Hear.) The House then went into committee, when Mr. BANKES gave notice that Lord J. Manners, wh o was absent in attending an imporant public meeting in Liverpool, would propose his amendment, limiting the hours of labour in factories to ten hours instead of ten and a half hours. Mr ELLIOTT then moved an amendme, t upon the first clause to the effect that it should not be laWful for young persons and females t he employed for more than ten hours daily, between half-past five o'clock in the morning and half-past eight in the evening, and that it should be lawful for them lo work in sets in relays. He contended that in some parts of the kingdom, particularly in mills worked by water power, in summer they were interrupted by the drying up of streams, and in winter by Ice. To pass the bill as it stood would be the ruin of such mills. Sir G. GaRY opposed the amendment, as in direct opposition to the principle of the bill ; it raised, in fact, a question Which had already been decided by the house. Mr. EDWARDS ' and Lord ASIILFY opposed the amendment, vndit was supported by Mr. W. BROWN. After some discussion, in which Mr. Aglionby, Mr. J.Williams, Mr. A. Dennison, Mr. Brotherton, Mr. Bright, Mr. W. J. Fox, and Mr. Crawford took part, the committee divided, whe❑ the numbers were,—For the amendment, 45 ; against it, 248 ; mcjoiity, ::91. The amendment was consequently lost. Lord ASHLEY moved an amendment, the object of which was to pi event children between the ages of 8 and 13 from being worked in factories, except between 6 a.m. and 6 p.m. After considerable discussion the committee divided, when the numbers were,—For the amendment, 72; against it, 102; majority, 30.—Lord AStrt.gr said, that in consequence of this decision he was released from all responsibility with respect to the bill, but he should certainly again press the claims of these children. The remaining clauses were agreed to, and the report was ordered to be brought up on Monday. The remainder of the sitting was occupied ;n committee upon :the Metropolitan Interment Bill. HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY. In reply to a question from Lord BROUGHAM, The Marquis of LANSDOWNE said that the expedition which /ad sailed from America against Cuba had been fitted out in defiance of the strict prohibition of the President of the United States. The Earl of ABERDEEN did not doubt the sincerity of the American govt rnment, but regretted that a proposition which he had made twenty years ago, that England, France, and America should guarantee the possession of Cuba to Spain, had not been acceded to by America. Lord STANLEY wished to know what course the government had pursued in reference to the subject, and if any and what structi,,os had been sent to the commander of the British 4aaval force on the station? The Marquis of LA N SDOWNE declined to answer the question The matter soon after terminated. HOUSE OF COMMONS. -FRIDAY, ?he house. during its morning sitting. was occupied with the drainage and improvement of the land advances bill, which was eventually passed through committee. In the even'ng sitting, Mr. G. A. ElAnzi.To:.presented two petitions, one signed by ].600 out of the 2,040 clergymen of the Established Church of Ire'and, and the other signed by ;1,000 of the laity of that church, stating their conscientious objections to the system of rational education in that country. In answer to questions from Colonel RAwnorr, Lord JOHN RUSSELL said that an inquiry had been instituted into the state of the pictures in the National Gallery, with a - view to their better preservat.on, but the government had not as yet received the final result of that inquiry. A proposal had been made to the Royal Academy, with a view to obtain the wrhole of the National Gallery building for the public collection of pictures, and the reply had been received by him that very day, in which it was intimated that the academy was anxious to meet the views of the public. It was his intention next week to Trove for a committee of inquiry, to ascertain whether or not it was expedient to allocate the pictures of the National Gallery. Mr tthasmaN, under the guise of a notice of motion, made an attack on the Bishop of Llandaff for non -residence and for 210 t speaking the Welsh language. Lord J. RUSSELL defended the right rev, prelate, whose ap pointment had given general satisfaetion, and whose piety was most exemplary. IRELAND. The inhabitants of Skibbercen are about to erect a mo nument to the memory of the Rev. R. B. Townsend, who laboured among them for more than thirty years. On Sunday week three young men were drowned in Mullingar lake. They were out on a party of pleasure when the boat upset. Already there are dark rumours of the re-appearance of .the potato disease. The Lord Lieutenant is said to have ,communicated the fact to Lord John Russell. The population of Rathmines, near Dublin, have been zrievously violated during the past week by a novel and audacious attempt by the Romish party to parade their offensive memories, in the face of day, in the shape of an idolatrous procession of the host. It appears that Robert Lindsey Mauleverer, Esq., an 'Recount of whose horrid murder in Ireland appeared in our last number, was grandson of the late Thomas Mau leverer, Esq. of Arnecliffe H a ll, Y or k s hi re, an d cousin to William Esq., Esq., of Arnecliffe Hall. The Viceroy steamer, which left Galway for New York on Saturday, carried out thirty-three passengers, with a surgeon and agent. Her rate of sailing on leaving the bay was estimated to be about fifteen knots per hour, and in little more than three-quarters of an hour she was out of slat. THE QUEEN 's COLLEGE IN IRELAND.—TheFreeMaIeB Journal says that the Roman Catholic Primate has re cently received a decisive letter from Rome, declaring that Roman Catholic clergymen cannot hold office in, or otherwise be instrumental in advancing the p ro j ect of Queen's Colleges in Ireland, and that the Roman Catholic laity are prohibited from sending their youth to those colleges for education. RAILWAY AFFAIRS. The bill for abandoning a pertion of the line and reduc ing the capital of the Shropshire Union Railway has been approved, Frovided it is not found to interfere with the existing agreement of the London and North-Western -Com pan y. The sharehollers of the Great North of England Com. ipany have sanationed the bill (already agreed to by the York, Newcastle, and Berwick Company) for enabling the last-mentioned company to complete the purchase of the Great North of Englandline. On Saturday afternoon as the up-train from Southamp ton, on the South-Western Railway, was nearing Wim bledon, a man suddenly emerged from behind a tree and threw himself before the train, which passed over him, before (Ten an attempt could be made to stop it.

A Jamaica paper states that an old' black man lately died, on a property belonging to Mr.'Justice Macdougall, at the advarced age of.l3o,years. Madne'ss has lately become extremely common in aid around Vienna, and on a single day the week before last no fewer than thirteen persons were carried into mad houses. This extraordinary prevalence of 'insanity has induced several foreign physicians to.proceed to Vienna, for the purpose of investigating its causes. The French papers state that, on Sunday last, both Lord and Lady Normanby were present at the Versailles races ; that the scene was remarkable for its gaiety ; and that the British Ambassador, in the stand occupied by the President, was among the most hilarious. Considering the day, the hour, and the political crisis, we feel that Lord Normanby would have better supported his character of Englishman and Ambassador had he been elsewhere. The Allocution addressed by Pius IX. to the Secret Consistory held on the 20th day of March last, has been published. It is a remarkably empty document, consis ting chiefly of a recital of his own exile and restoration, and of the assistance rendered him by foreign powers, even those not in communion with the See of Rome. The recent changes in Austria in favour of the church men tioned with special approbation, and the conduct of the government of Sardinia is severely censured. The government of Saxony has dissolved the chambers, cancelled the present election law, and avoided even a new election under the old one, by calling again into existence a legislature chosen before 1848. All public meetings are to give twenty-four hours notice of their intention to assemble, and on all such occasions the police are to be present, to whom implicit obedience is to be paid. Mili t iry precautions have been redoubled though there does not appear to have been any call for their increase. FEARFUL CATASTROPFIE.—A letter dated Berlin, June 5, says—" On the 2nd instant, a dreadful catastrophe happened at Mewe to one of the many processions of pil grims going to Lorlc, on its way to worship a miracle working image of the Virgin in a convent near Neumark ; 130 persons, chiefly women, were crossing the Weichsel in a large kahn or barge, when, by some mismanagement, it upset, and sank in deep water. The number drowned cannot be exactly ascertained ; but it is above 100. At the spot where the accident took place, 24 bodies. of which only two were men, were taken out of the river ; the rest were carried down the stream." CLERICAL INTELLIGENCE. On Friday evening the Manchester Rectory Division Bill was read a second time in the House of Lords. The Rev. John Chippendall Montesquieu Bellew, S.C.L., has been licensed by the Lord Bishop of Chester to the stipendiary curacy of Prescot. The Bishop of London's New Court of Appeal Bill was lost in the House of Lords on Monday, by a majority of 32, in a house of 135 members. The conference of preachers of the Prussian Church have voted an address of congratulation and support to the Bishop of Exeter for his conduct in the Gorham case. The Bishop of Bombay, on his recent visit t o M a d e i ra , attended divine worship in the chapel of Mr. Brown, although the Bishop of London has decided that Mr. Love is the only legitimate clergyman on the island. This act produced a commotion in Madeira. The Rev. Robert Henry Gray, M.A., has been licensed by the Lord Bishop of Chester to the Perpetual Curacy of Kirkby, in the parish of Walton.on-the.hill, in the county of Lancaster, void by the death of the Rev.

Mr. Bennett is one of four _incumbents, and every sitting is free. The establishment, consisting of church, school=rooma, ai , elling' for master and mistress and twelve choristers, and residence for four clergymen, has cost £20,000. The church is to be opened daily from morning to night, and there are to be two or three services daily. The Rev. Mr, Kelly, a minister of the Episcopal Church in America, has been chosen pastor of the Free Church, St. Mary's, Torquay. In reference to this arrangement, the Western Times says :—lt is delightful to see the new world reciprocating benefits with the old, and returning that quality of Protestant " succession," which the first missionaries of the established faith carried into the wilderness of the West. THE GORHAM CASE.—The Bishop of Exeter is deter mined to leave no stone unturned which is likely to pro cure delay, or a reversion of the sentence of the Judicial Committee in the Gorham csse. On Thursday, his coun sel made a similar motion in the Court of Exchequer to that which had been rejected by two other superior courts of law. In doing so he complained that these courts had denied the Bishop the usual courtesy in such cases, having rejected the application without giving an opportunity for the arguing of the grave point of law involved. The fact that on both occasions the application met with the same fate, and that on the second occasion every judge con curred in the rejection, would tend to show that, after all, there is no point of law in issue.

The miners at Holywell are still out on strike, and the agitation is causing serious annoyance in the neighbour hood. They wish to reduce the hours of labour from eight to six hours. The labourers in the mines of Flint shire are evidently not now so peaceable as they used to be. Preparations are making on a scale of great magnificence at Lismore Castle to place that mansion in a suitable etato for the reception of the Queen, who intends, it is stated, to honour the Duke of Devonshire with a visit at his Grace's Irish mansion. A poor and aged couple living near Leeds have just been gratified with the receipt of a bankers bill for £lOO from their son, from whom they had not heard for five years. He had emigrated to California and became a gold digger. A train on the Peterborough branch of the Eastern Counties Railway, on Monday night week, killed or fatally injured 22 sheep, which are supposed to have been mali ciously driven from a neighbouring field by some one who bore a grudge to their owner. In tire report of the metropolitan registrar of births, it is stated that a man of 36 years, who had disease of the heart, was fishing in the New River, and captured "a jack," and that the excitement attending his success caused a fit of apoplexy, from which he never recovered. Last Sunday evening, a boat containing five persons was capsized on the Thames, and the entire party immersed. Three of the party were rescued in a very exhausted state ; but Mr. Wetherell, residing at No. 125, Princes-road, Lambeth, and his grandson, aged five years, were drowned. b The bullion in both departments of the ank of Eng land has increased from X 16,701,949 to X 16,737,613, being a difference of £35,664.

ORANGEISM.—The meeting of the Loyal Orange Insti tution will take place at Bilston, on the Ist July next. The society now numbers 3000 members. It is expected that the grand master (the Earl of Enniskillen,) will pre side, and Marquis of Blandford, Lord Bradford, Colonel Verner, &c., are expected to be present.

The fight for the championship and £2OO a-side, between Bendigo and Paddock, came off on Wednesday, at Mildenball-road Station, in Cambridgeshire. The battle lasted 59 minutes, and in the 50th round was declared in favour of Bendigo, in consequence of a foul blow struck by his opponent. It would seem, from an article in Tuesday's Morning Chronicle, that the office of Poet Laureate—with an inti mation that no poetic tribute need be paid—has been offered to Mr. Rogers, the venerable author of " The Pleasures of Memory," but was gracefully declined by him, on the plea of age. At the County Court, held last Friday, Mr. R.

The petition also prayed for protection to agri culture. WAR AGAINST THE WASPS.—The Earl of Burlington commissioned his gardener, Mr. Wilson, to give a penny each for every wasMought to. him that may have been caught in or about his lordship's gardens. From the 23d of April up to the present time, he has taken in no less than► 2,364. As every wasp killed at this time of the year is a nest destroyei, the number thus prospectively abolished is almost incalculable.— Westmoreland Gazette. The insane daughter of a merchant at Huddersfield was violated and robbed some time since by a ruffianly "navvy," who gave the simple young lady some ale and then lured her into a shrubbery near her father's house. He also robbed her of a gold watch, gold chain, and her purse. The circumstances were seen by a bystander, who wondered at what he saw, and gave information. The navvy has been committed for trial. DR. SOUTHEY AND SIR WALTER SCOTT.—In Nov., 1813, the then newly-appointed poet laureate wrote thus to the author of Waverley—" We shall both be remem bered hereafter, and ill betide him who shall institute a comparison between us. There has been no race ; we have both got to the top of the hill by different paths, and meet there not as rivals but as friends, each rejoicing in the success of the other." On Sunday week, J. Charlesworth, Esq., of Chapel thorpe Hall, near Wakefield, went into his pastures as usual, to see his cattle, with some of which he bad become very famili,tr. He dismounted from his horse and called to him some young heifers, and whilst standing among them one ran against him and knocked him down. Others kicked and trod upon him, and he was so severely injured that he is considered in a very precarious state. A great wonder has just made its appearance at North ampton, in the shape of a live Proctor. A real bona fide election for a Proctor to serve in Convocation, has actually taken place; and what is more, the candidate elected by a majority of 224 against 141 is a gentleman who has pledged himself to do his utmost to obtain the revival of the active functions of Convocation, while his defeated opponent., started uptits all in his power to prevent such revival. EXHIBITION OF INDUSTRY IN 1851.—The committee appointed to consider all matters relating to the building, reported to her Majesty's Commissioners on the 9th ult. that they had arrived at the unanimous conclusion that of the numerous plans sent in, " able and admirable as many of the designs appeared to be, there was yet no single one so accordant with the peculiar objects in view, either in the principle or details of the arrangement, as to warrant them in recommending it for adoption." LORD BROUGHAM ON THE EPSOM RACECOURSE.-- The Sunday Times says, " Amongst the celebrated cha racters we encountered in strolling about the course was Lord Brougham, with his pocket-handkerchief full of knick-knacks that he had knocked over playing at ' cock s:lly! His lordship, when we saw him, was explaining to Colonel Sibthorp the scientific principles of a ' Jack-in the-box,' which the gallant colonel swore was the image of Lord John Russell." THE INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION-HALL.—The con struction of this dome, 200 feet in diameter, though of light sheet iron, will be no joke. We may remind the reader that it will be double the size of our St. Paul's dome, which is about 112 feet in diameter. The dome of St. Peter's, at Rome, is 139 feet in diameter, and that of the Pantheon 142 feet. The central hall will be a poly gon of 16 sWes, four of which will open into gardens re served around it. Its main walls will be of brick, and about 60 feet high.—Builder. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.—A boy named Cole, belonging to Frampton-on-Severn, is now lying in a dangerous state in the Infirmary, suffering from the effects of a sin gular and terrible accident. Some days since he was leading a horse, when another horse came up, and they began to kick each other. The boy held on fast by the halter, which was firmly twisted round his hand, when, horrible to relate, the horse gave a sudden jerk and tore the poor lad's hand out of the socket at the wrist ! The hand was found some yards distant from the poor fellow, and when it was picked up the fingers were actually mov ing.— Wilts Standard. BEEF FOR EDITORIAL JUDGMENT.—The editor of the Wakefield Examiner was embarrassed the week before last, as he was preparing for press, by the receipt of a large piece of beef which the butcher's boy requested he would insert in his paper. As the editor knew not how to put beef in his broad-sheet, even if he had room, the boy and beef were summarily dismissed. Next day he again received the beef with a note, requesting him to accept it and decide upon its quality, as it had been re jected at the prison as unfit for the food of felons, at which the contracting butchers were much grieved. The civil editor had the beef cooked, and has pronounced it ex cellent. THE " NATIONAL LAND COMPANY•"—In the Court of Queen's Bench on Tuesday, in the case of the Queen v. Whitmarsh, Lord Campbell, in delivering the judgment of the Court, said that the question raised upon this demurrer was whether the National Land Company could be registered under the Joint Stock Company's Act, and the application was made to compel the registration. In the act, after alluding to various companies, it was stated that companies which were established for the purposes of profit might be registered ; and it was contended that the National Land Company was established for the purpose of profit, and ought, therefore, to be registered. The Company was not, in the opinion of the Court, e.t.blished for the purpose of profit, but for the purpose of allotting lands to the shareholders, and therefore the judgment of the Court would be for the defendant. Lord John Russell presided on Thursday at the sixth annual meeting of the London Society for Improving the Condition of the Labouring Classes, and when the first resolution had been submitted, two individuals, named Reynolds and Beacon, attempted to address the meeting, but not being members of the society, his lordship decided that they could not be heard. After some confusion Mr. Reynolds tendered a guinea in order to entitle him to speak as a member, which was refused. He then came in front of the platform, and, passing before Lord Harrowby, appealed to Lord John Russell, with a swag gering air, not to " allow the working classes to be in sulted." Lord Harrowby thereupon rose from his seat, took him by the shoulders, and pushed him back. Mr. Reynolds, without further resistance, slunk back to his seat, while the meeting resounded with cheering, and cries of " Well done, Lord Harrowby !" Mr. Reynolds has since applied to the magistrates for a summons against Lord Harrowby. THE NEPAUL EMBASSY.—Every one who has passed through St. Paul's Church-yard London, on a rainy day, when birch brooms are very much in requisition, must have noticed the well-known Hindoo crossing sweeper. who has for years past regularly stationed him self at the north-east angle of the Cathedral. A day or two ago be was at his post as usual, when the attention of the NepaNleae Ambassador, who was passing at the time, was attracted towards him. His Excellency ordered the carriage to stop, and entered into conversation with him, the result of which was that he threw his broom with desperate eagerness over the railings o f th e b ur i a l -groun d , and then seraml;led into the carriage and took his seat by th e s id e o f hi s Excellency, who immediately drove off with his singularly-aequirJd companion. We u n d es t an d th a t our ex-crossing-sweeper is engaged d ur i ng hi s Excel lency's stay in this count7Y, which ,will probably be a b ou t two months, to act as iet*rpreter to him and his suite.

DREADFUL LOSS OF LIFE.-13y a coincidence which, but for the lamentable:frequency of such Accidents in this district, would, seem very remarkable, just at the moment whilst a petition for government inspectors was being extensively signed at Newcastle, an explosion, attended with loss of life to thirteen individuals, and probably fatal injuries to several others, took place at Ushwortb Col liery, about five or six miles to the south east of Gates head, on Wednesday last. There was at the time the ac cident took place, nearly sixty miners down the shaft. THE ENCUMBERED ESTATES.—Thirty-four additional petitions for sales have been lodged in the court this week, making a gross total since October of no less than 876—a large proportion out of the whole body of Irish landlords, and a very visible symptom, whether for better or worse, of a not distant change in the proprietary of the soil. The name of the Earl of Glengall appears in the last list, the petitioners in the matter being the Right Rev. Dr. Foran, the Roman Catholic Bishop of Water ford, and another. BRITISH LABOUR SUPERSEDED BY THE FOREIGN MANUFACTURE OF FLOUR.—In 1849 there were taken for consumption of American flour 1,935,339 barrels. If this had been ground in Great Britain it would have pro duced 1,355,000 sacks, and would have required (say) 500,000 linen sacks to contain it (supposing they had been returned empty about three times in the year.) The quantity of wheat required to produce it would be 1.404,902 quarters, which at 3s. per quarter for grinding (this includes cartage, &c.) would have left for labour, , profit, &c., in this country, , £210,738, and 500,000 linen sacks, at ls. 2d. each, would have been £43,750, total, • £254,488, • CAPTAIN For SYTH'S ARCTIC BRANCH EXPEDITION. —The Prince Albert sailed out of the bay on Wednesday evening, and in a few hours would be out of sight of Aberdeen. She has a fine crew of young men : they were all sober, and passed muster well and in high spirits. This gallant little band of adventurous seamen, who have gone in search of her Majesty's ships Erebus and Terror, and their ice•imprisoned crews, one and all solicited Capt. Forsyth to attend the clergyman the evening before sail ing, to offer up prayers for a successful voyage—a request which, of course, was cheerfully complied with. There is now no part of the Arctic Seas, where Franklin is likely to be found, left unprovided for in the search—the only gap—and a most important one—having been filled up , by the untiring energies of Lady Franklin. MATRIMONY MADE EASY.—Under the foregoing 11 ead with the additional luring one How to win a Lover, some individual with the title of professor, advertises in several country papers that he will send to any direction, on re. ceipt of thirteen uncut postage stamps, " plain directions to enable any lady or gentleman to win the devoted affections of as many of the opposite sex as their hearts may desire. The process," says he, "is so simple, but so captivating and enthralling that all may be married, irrespective of age, appearance, or posit;on ; while the most fickle or cold-hearted will readily bow to its attrac tion. Young and old, peer and peeress, as well as the peasant, are alike subject to its influence ; and last, though not least, it can be arranged with such ease and • delicacy that detection is impossible." A MAN SUMMONED FOR NOT MAINTAINING A WIFE AND SIX CHILDREN ON 7S. A WEEK.—A poor man, with the appropriate name of Bones, was summoned for allow ing the guardians of the Wormingford union to maintain three children of his wife by a former husband. In de fence, the man said that his earnings were only 7s. a week, and he found it impossible to maintain eight people on that sum. He had been nearly starved in the attempt, and at last took three of the children to the union and left them there. The workhouse had been offered to himself and family, but he declined to go into it. The Rev. J. R. Smythies said that the parishioners of Wormingford ought to pay better wages than those of any other parish because the land in it was so superior. The fact of the man hav ing a dislike to go into the union was a proof to him (Mr. S.) that he was an honest and industrious man; as to his supporting eight people on 7i. a week, it could not be done, and he would never sign the man's conviction ex cept upon mandamus. The case was then dismissed.— Essex Herald. SHOCKING CHILD MURDER.-011 Tuesday, Mr. H. Wakley held an inquest at the Lord Hill, Paddington, on the body of a child, about eighteen months old, who was so horribly mutilated that its sex could not be discovered. On the 29th of October, 1848, a deal box which had the direction on it, " Mr. Watson, passenger, Exeter," was found on the platform of the Slough station by one of the porters. As no one applied for it, it was brought to Lon don, and placed in the lost property department. It was there till Saturday, the Ist of June, when the superin tendent opened the box and discovered the body, which was carefully folded up in a piece of calico. A cambric handkerchief, edged with lace, was tied tightly round its throat. The sexual structure was entirely_ removed, as if by some sharp instrument. There were cuts about the arms and legs, showing that there had been attempts to sever the limbs from the body. Mr. Thorn, surgeon, said he had no doubt but that death was the result of strangu lation. ALLEGED MURDER.—The magistrates of Aberystwith, South Wales, have been engaged in instituting inquiries into the death of Mr. Edward Edwards, a respectable farmer occupying lands at Roscellan, near that town, and who is supposed to have been murdered on or about the 15th of last month. On the 14th a large fair, known as the May Fair, was held at Aberystwith, and Mr. Edwards left his home with the avowed intention of doing business at it with some of the neighbouring farmers whom he had appointed to meet him. He was at the fair, and at night, having partaken too freely of spirits, he went to a house of ill fame. During the night a quarrel took place between him and some men, axd it is understood that about three o'clock on the morning of the 15th a violent conflict ensued. After this time nothing was seen of the deceased, whose absence from home excited much alarm, and led to most diligent inquiries throughout the district. Nothing however could be learned respecting him until his body was found by some labouring men in the river, at about fifty or sixty feet from the new pier, Aberystwith. AFFECTING OCCURRENCE.—About nine o'clock yester day evening week a respectably-attired female accosted one of the Dover watermen, and requested that he would row her out about a mile from the shore, which he agreed to do, (not at the time suspecting that the lady meditated self destruction';) but when about a mile from the shore, she suddenly sprang from her seat, and throwing her purse into his lap jumped head-foremost into the sea. The man was for a moment paralyzed, but had time and presence of mind enough to catch hold of the lady's dress before she sank, at the same time shouting loudly for assistance. A Deal boat being happily within hail, im mediately came to his help, when the poor lady was got into the boat. It appears that she is a Belgian by birth, and about forty-five years of age. She had arrived in Dover by the last Calais packet from Paris, where her husband lately died, and finding life insupportable since his death, she resolved to destroy herself. A miniature of her deceased husband was found upon her person, and a small sum of money in French coin, a lock of hair, six silver tea spoons, a gold chain, and a metal watch. The active superintendent of the Dover police had the unfor tunate lady carefully attended to. ANOTHER REMARKABLE DREAM.—A short time hack an elderly gentleman, named Walker, was residing at Aberstwith. Mr. W. had formerly been an extensive agri culturist, and in his walks the hedge-side labourer and the sower of wheat were both sure to draw forth a remark ; the conversation being generally wound up by the worthy gen tleman's giving his auditors a douceur for their courtesy. During one of his rambles he fell into conversation with a wayside labourer, the winding-up being a gift as usual. He had in his pocket an unusually large sum of money, principally in notes, and a few days after he found himself minus £75 in notes. Search was made in every direction, but to no purpose. This was in January last :in April he dreamt that he lost his money in a certain spot, about a mile from the town. A man was engaged to ex plore fully the spot dreamed about, and had not gone far before something was seen resembling the missing pro perty : it was immediately seized, and actually proved to be the long-sought treasure. The only explanation Mr. W. could give was his talking to a man working at the hedge side, and giving him a trifle of money, when no doubt at the same time the notes fell, and were uncon sciously covered by the earth the old man was shovelling. —Shrewsbury Chronicle. A very pretty illustration of the "blessings" which free trade has conferred upon the'working classes of the com munity may be gathered out of the report of a meeting of journeymen tailors, which was holden at Cambridge last Wednesday evening. Many of our readers are aware that .there has been great commotion at St. Ives amongst that very useful body of men who make our garments, in con sequence of the reduction of wages by a large employer in that town, and a " conspiracy " on the part of the men to resist it. On Wednesday evening, the men appealed to the sympathy of their fellow workmen in Cambridge, and stated their case by the mouth of one Mr. Muff. It seems from this man's statement that the St. Ives employer was a rampant free-trader, who used to spout the usual non sense in support of that beautiful vision with more than the usual energy. His favourite theme was the " incal culable benefit to the working classes" which would flow from the adoption of the popular theory; and upon this theme we dare say he spoke with eloquence and fervour such as never tailor spoke with before. Well, he has got free trade ; but where are the " incalculable benefits ?" Let Mr. Muff tell us : he (the employer) " had been the man to propose the reduction of their wages from 15 to 50 per cent., and to assign as the reason thatfive trade had so crippled the farmers that they could not pay so much for their garments as they had been in the habit of doing." And so one of the " blessings of free trade" is, that we have a body of men compelled to " strike" against a re duction of wages, and to answer an indictment for "con spiracy" at the next assizes. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE.—His fate furnishes a remark able instance of the instability of human greatness, and there is no doubt that his dislike to.medicine remotely caused his early dissolution ; for rather than take some simple remedy, he allowed disease to gain the ascendancy over his constitution, axiddeath was the result. Thus it is that persons cannot' be too watchful of their state of health, ani s % be' always provided with a safe and efficient medicine as Frampton's rill of Health), enjoy the two area est blessings of this world—health and long life. THE HUMAN HAIR.—The peculiar structure of this integument of the head. its singular mode of growth and elongation, and the various conditions of delicacy and decay connected with its existence and its preservation, render it an object requiring paramount care and atten tion. As a specific for its health and well-being, Row lands' Macassar Oil cannot be too highly commended.

We give our opinion honestly, and to the best of our abilities, and we are neither afraid nor ashamed to publish any fair contradiction to our assertions. We endeavour to do justice, and avoid partiality in our remarks upon the Flower Shows, and we'e are not so bigoted to our own opinions as to believe them ;nfallible, or fear to be told of an error that can be proved ; on the contrary, we chal lenge argument upon the critiques that we publish. The question which appears to have given offence is our ' opinion upon the specimen plants exhibited at the last Liverpool Exhibition, and we believe no unprejudiced person can deny the fairness of that opinion : it appeared to us that a misapprehension existed in the minds of the judges as to what really constitutes a specimen plant, at all events the judgment given was very much at variance with any established standard. What constitutes a speci men plant ? Not size certainly, for then only fast grow ing plants would be exhibited ; whereas those plants which require most time and patience to develop them are usually selected; and in the careful training of their stiff branches to elegant forms : a Heath might be made to grow to a large size by the application of a warm atmosphere, but it would not bloom, neither would its shape be at all improved by it, but the same plant treated according to the rules of the art would produce short sturdy branches, each so nicely in its place, that the whole would form an almost globular bush, every shoot of which, in proper season, is terminated with flowers. Such a specimen was shown at the Corn Exchange last month, and was barely noti.7ed, whilst one of large size, but almost devoid of leaves, was one in the successful lot that took the first prize. A specimen plant can only be defined as "a plant upon which much art has been expended, and which has been brought to a state of extreme perfection, surpassing what it would attain under ordinary culture." As a specimen for exhibition it is necessary that it should be in full flower "such are the features which are uni versally recognised as the true characteristics of the speci men plant, and judged by this rule the decisions of the Corn Exchange would have been very different: another rule was entirely lost sight of, and that is—a collection of plants with one indifferent one is not entitled to a prize, because the number is incomplete, and five good and one bad specimen can never make a set of six specimens. We think the gardeners would do well to meet all through the country, and form some kind of resolution which will bring the art of judging to the simple and excellent rules usually adopted at the great metropolitan exhibitions, and which, in fact, amount to fixed rules. WOOLTON FLORAL FETE. - - - The usual charact er o f thi s ex hibi t i on has this year been altered for charitable purposes, and, no - doubt with the best intentions, has been made a fancy fair and floral fete, which renders any thing further than a general no tice useless in this column. It was evident that the gar deners had exerted themselves chiefly in producing quan tity rather than quality, in order to benefit the fund de rived from the sale of plants. There were, however, a few creditable specimens in the exhibition-tent. Amongst those to which nominal prizes were awarded were some very fine fuchsias and roses, by S. Healy, Esq. ; a group of six nice plants, from Chas. Wilson, Esq., consisting of Gardenia Fortuni, covered with magnificent blossoms, and filling the tent with its exquisite fragrance; Chloris radiata, a remarkable Indian grass; Russelia juncea, Franciscea augusta, and a very fine seedling calpeolaria., There was an immense Pimelea decussata, from Mrs. Shand and a nice Chorizema varium, from Mrs. Joseph Ashton. R. Gill, Esq., bad a miscellaneous collection ; and there was an excellent assortment of fancy pelargo niums, ericas, cinerarias, &c., and an immense specimen of Nemophila maculata, from Messrs. T. Davies and Co., of the Wavertree Nursery. MISCELLANEA. The Economy of Manure is deservedly engaging the attention of farmers at the present time. It may be in ferred from a late interesting lecture by Professor Way that a clay soil is an efficient retainer of ammonia, and when it is generated by the decomposition of manures buried in the soil, it is absorbed and held there until re quired as food for the next crop, and that sandy and cal careous soils possess this property in a much lower degree. These facts, which have been proved by careful investiga tion, appear to coincide with the experience that heavy soils do not require applications of manure so frequently as those of a light and porous na t ure, an d t h at a naked fallow is highly beneficial to the following crop on a strong clay ; whereas the light soils lose by long exposure a great part of the soluble matter they contain. It follows then that manures, either in a solid or liquid form, may safely be applied to land containing a fair proportion of clay, a considerable time before the sowing of the crop. As most soils possess the power of retaining the valuable portions of manure as they are evolved by decomposition, which discovery exhibits a beautiful provision in nature, how does it happen that we do not apply it to the land before it has sustained the great loss which often occurs during fermentation in the heap, and drainage during4he process ? And with regard to liquid manure, if applied in the recent state, though its operation may not be so immediate, I do not see why it should not be as effectual, unless the nitro genous susstances from which the ammonia is produced are more liable to suffer loss after being mixed with the eoil than ammonia itself, being formed previously by fer mentation ; or it may be that a more favourable combina tion of particles is induced by fermentation than by the slow decomposition which takes place in the soil. Perhaps some of your readers will be kind enough to explain the difference in the effects of these two kinds of decomposi tion, and also of their experience in the application of artificial modes of fixing ammonia. It is not always con venient, even if it should be proved desirable, to apply manure immediately it is produced, and perhaps there is no better way of preserving it than by throwing it up into a compact heap, rounded at the top, and covered with soil one or two inches in thickness, preserving the drainage by channels leading to a cask sunk in tho ground. By this method, the loss, though not entirely avoided, would per haps be less than than the expense of obtaining other means.—Agricultural Gazette. Transplanting Veyetables.—When the season arrives for transplanting broccolies and other vegetables, I gently raise the seed-beds with a potato fork. so as to spring the roots of the plants. I then water with a rosed watering pot, and in ten or fifteen days, as circumstances permit, I water again, raise, draw, and plant; watering the bed if more plants were wanted for another period. Celery, endive, lettuces, flower beds, seed pots (with proper instruments), I have treated as above ; and the plan may be extented to strawberry runners for potting or for rows ; carrots, onions, beet, and turnips ; also to forest trees, shrubs, and grain, if it is desirous to increase any particular sort, such as the Peruvian barley imported by Lord Lonsdale.—T. Torbron, Lower Tottenham.— Gardners' Chronicle. OPERATIONS FOR THE WEER Stove, Conservatory, &•c.—The removal of greenhouse plants to the borders, or to their sheltered summer quar ters, will give an opportuity of affording more room to those which remain, by which they will be benefited. Flower Garden.—Tulips are now out of bloom, and should have the dead flowers picked off, except in the case of breeders, where the seed is wanted : the best way is merely to nip off the flower just at its junction with the stalk, and let the stalk itself remain. Dahlias will now require frequent applications of liquid manure. ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. O.—Your orchid is Oncidium Lanceanum. J. Meredith. —Wire netting is cheap enough, and is a perfect remedy. CORRESPONDENCE. ____*____ TO THE EDITOR OF THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD -- • SIR,—If any thing will bring conviction to the minds of the public that neither gold nor B. of E. paper is re quired to effect government or corporate undertakings, I think the perusal of the following extract from a letter I have just received from a highly intelligent gentleman, will do so. The statement proves the truth of the " Time Currency System," which system may be preferable to the notes being redeemable in gold twelve months after date. THE HISTORY OF THE GUERNSEY MEAT MARKET. "It was contracted for at the cost of .".t,ocio. The State of Guernsey, who are a legislative body, voted the money, the market being a national building. The money voted consisted of one pound notes, not bearing any interest, but their redemp tion was guaranteed by the whole property o f t h e island, esti mated at four millions sterling. These notes were declared legal tender by the authority of the States, who put them into circulation. They were paid to the contractor, who paid for material and wages with them. The workmen paid them to the shopkeepers for clothes, provisions, &c. ; the shopkeepers paid them to the people generally, who paid their taxes in these notes. At length the building was completed and divided into 80 butchers' shops, the rent of eac h shop being After the firet year's tenancy had expired, the rent of £4OO was paid to the treasurer of the States, who at once called in four hundred of the meat market totes, (for they bore that distinctive title,) and they were burned in the presence of the authorities. Of course at the end of ten years the whole £4,000 was extin guished, whilst the market remained, and still remains to this day, yielding ~ 4 00 a year to the public treasury. It did not cost one farthing to the people; and the fact shows that the symbol did create a reality." - - Assuredly any public body controlling the receipts and expenditure of a town, should pause before they plunge the rate-payers into an enormous perpetual burden to pay interest for money to effect any improvement which will ultimately produce a revenue. The Gurnsey meat market at the present time produces an income of £4OO a year, and will do so as long as the building lasts, and no draw back for interest. I stated the same would be the result if the "Time Notes" were issued by the Col poration respecting the " Pike Scheme," the " Saiiors' Home," or any other ultimately paying undertaking. This assertion was, in my letter you honoured by publication in your Journal, 16th April, the following being the quotation : "I beg leave to add my conviction that if this system, or something like it, be adopted, the `Pike scheme,' instead of being a burden and incubus on the town, will be the reverse." Certainly the account of the " Guernsey Meat Market" bears me out in my assertion. Had our docks been made from a resource like this, at the present time the whole income would have been clear public revenue, r.nd nearly have superseded the necessity of any other impost upon the town. I will not at present trouble you will' any further observations. I remain, Sir, An! , respectfully yours, WILLIA3I BANKS, frtbo, ourtitorop al° BIRTHS. too wife of g • filb u asisdoso O gar rann n .um,t t oeh h f e e daa3 l sdy s otß t t,tt,fasiti instant,. sinTnAgtsnßniNttscth.sshah.:Eisst.43,tijet.hrietel awnitf,e on a f t tm Paris,. :vre.r ito 13 t: iit b e e feo f t of" of CAVAN, of a daughter. • w s , On the 4th instant, Mrs. GNARL,. 0 1) daughter. wife of Callt•fl „ Same day. at Southsea, the of $ R.N., of her Majesty's ship Assista?nou On the 6th instant, Mrs. PETER nr,' a son.
