BERKELEY CRAVEN,—Mr. Craven's differ. ences upon the Derby ale said to amount to upwards of £SU,UJU. The whole tribe of blacklegs have been the principal sufferers by the result of the late Jersey. The following extraordinary case occurred last week in Ber wick. One of toe female servants of a respectable family, while engaged in washing clothes, received a 'nick in her hand with, it was supposed, a needle, which smarted severely at the mo ment, but the effect seemed soon to pass away, and the circum stance to be almost forgotten. On Saturday morning, however, the girl was awoke with an acute pain in the shoulder, of which she complained bitterly to her mistress, who, after some consi deration, and in vain employing means to assuage the pain, re meinuered the puncture of the needle, and became persuaded it was that which was now occasioning the anguish her servant was suffering. In the coutse of the furenotio the girl was sent to the surgeon of the family in question, with a message from her mistress, particularly to examine the part affected with a view to discover if it was not the needle which had run into the hand, and had now worked its way up to the shoulder, and was struggling, as it were, fur escape, The surgeon did so, but he saw nothing to lead him to any such conclusion, and sent the girl home with'an intimation to that effect. The suffering of the poor, girl continuing to increase, and her mistress becoming inure and more persuaded it was nothing but the needle that was the cause of it ail, went herself with her servant to the sur geon, upon whom she urged in the and who she at length induced to make a n incision to discover, and extract the needle.. After a painful operation, d ur ing which the lady , w i t h great firmness, supported her maid in her arms, the forceps were inserted, and at a considerable depth the needle was laid hold of and drawn out—the identical ne edle, no doubt , which had punctured the hand several days before, and had gradually ,. made its progress along the whole l eng th of the arm. Ihe operation was very skilfully performed, and relief soon afforded to the sufferer, who is now almost re covered from the effects.—Berwick Warder. finely illustrated by an anecdote of Dr. Johnson, who, when arguing the point with a liberal lady, requested that the footman, an active, intelligent, and tolerably well educated man, should be allowed to sit at table with them, and, upon the lady's refus ing, he justly roma.lced, that people in general were fond of levelling down to themselves, but could not endure the idea of raising others to their own condition. The system of equality of rank can never hold. There must be teachers and workers, there must be " hewers of wood, and drawers of water," and ac cordingly Mr. Simpson will find, that from the very earliest ages of the world to the present time, diversity of rank has obtained, and that there is not a tribe or nation under Heaven, in which it is not observed, even from the most wild and savage hordes to the most refined and polished communities, not excepting vven that boasted land of freedom and equality, America, when the storekeeper who sells shoes, would think himself as much de graded by a familiar intercourse with the man who by the labour of his hand makes them, as the Hindoo Brahmin would to as sociate with the Rajah-poot, or the Rajah-poot to herd with the Hallachore. One of our poets has finely observed, that " Whatever link from nature's chain we strike, Tenth or tenth-thousandth, breaks the chain alike." And this maxim is undoubtedly true with regard to the chain of society. Should Mr. Simpson, or any other visionary, therefore ever succeed in overturning the social laws, instead of seeing his beautiful Utopian schemes realized, he would find that he had in reality created a hell upon earth, that he had torn asunder the, framework of society, and, instead of tile expected harmony and happiness, he had introduced universal discord, anarchy, and confusion, but I fear not such a consummation; nature, the God of nature has forbidden it. Mr. WOOD begged to thank them for the manner in which they had drank his health, not only as auditor of Liverpool but as the president of that meeting. He was of opinion that such meetings tended to keep alive that spirit which they ought to possess—that of attachment to the church and state. In his opinion conservatism was widely spreading, (hear,) and in a short time would overspread the whole country. In Rodney street ward it was already predominant, and, as far as that waid was concerned, they were safe, and he trusted that at the next election they should return a member as fit to represent them as their excellent member Mr. Lawrence. (Hear.) It was his opinion that in a short time they would have to return two members for the borough, and he did hope that, if they acted together cordially, they should return a gentleman to sit with their independent repr ese ntative, Lord - Sandon, worthy of the town and worthy of their choice. (Hear, and loud cheers.) For an Englishman to contemplate at this time the names of a Howard and a Russell,—names dear to Englishmen—and to think that they should succumb to a man, whom he need not name, for place and power was humiliating. They attempted to cry down the House of Lords, in his opinion the best bul wark of the liberties of the people, but he was of opinion that they would in a short time but form a part of the tail of a dis jointed and despised faction. With regard to their local repre sentation their opponents had told them in November last, " we beg of you do not vote for the tories, for they are tyrants; they keep up all the old abuses; they will fine you for keeping your shops open half on hour longer than they require. They will charge you fur the lamps and scavengers rate, taxes which you have no right to pay ; don't vote for them but vote for us libe rals." They had got a reform council—they had got a paid magistrate; the informations went on, the fines increase, the lamps and scavengers rates were imposed, and unless the cor poration got hold of the dock estate they would have a heavy borough rate to pay. (Hear.) But he was glad the burgesses were beginning to open their eves, and they now saw whom they ought to trust. He was satisfied that at the next election their opponents would be turned to the right about. He would in conclusion propose to them "the Conservative Press of Li verpool," which was drank amidst loud cheering. Mr. ALEXANDER being loudly called for, ro=e. He said in rising to return them thanks for the very gratifying manner in which they had drank his health, he begged leave to assure them that he could not express in adequate terms the strong feeling of sympathy he had with the cause to which they were all attached. With regard to the invitation they had given him to be present there that night, he could attribute it to nothing else than the principles to which he had long been at tached, and to which he was sure he should ever he warmly at tached. (Cheers.) He perfectly coincided with the Chairman, that the extension of those principles—an extension which appeared to him to be approaching to an immense majority, if not to something like universality in this most intelligent coun try, a s well at a distance as near- at home, entitled them to look forward with confidence to a happy result at the next political struggle—a result which it was not unreasonable to expect, when they considered the intelligence, the talent, the property-, the honour and the iudependence of the great party to which they belonged. (Cheers.) Intelligence and talent fitted alike for the general and local government of this country. There wais, one thing amougst many others at the present moment, and to • which the Chairman had so well alluded, which he thought had, or ought to have, a tendency to unite them as one man, in in .creased ardour in the prosecution and support of these princi ples which they advocated, and that was the humiliating con dition to which gentlemen of property and high station in this country were reduced by the singular line of policy w hi c h the present administration had adopted, in order to retain place and power. (Hear.) They had seen the ministers of the ki ng called by the party to which they belonged, the " servants of the people"—they had seen them resort to the most extraordi -4- nary expediency whenever the sense of the united parliament i'stif this empire had been against them, and make an appeal from r the legislation to the rabble. (Hear.) So long as they could build'Opon the confidence of certain classes of this country they Ore content with any measure which they could wring or ex tortsl6M the House of Lords; and they knew and they felt, he wa'sliute with deep regret, that they did extort measures from that noble assembly which had placed them, as Sir James Graham had well said, " in a most dangerous position, but' the moment that that house returned to a sense of duty—the moment they began to fulfil their duty to the coun try, and to say to the ministers of the crown, and to the mem bers of the lower house, " we will not concede this or that mea sure because we think it revolutionary,"—the moment they make a stand on principle the other house throws open its doors, and the arena of debate is transferred from St. Stephen's to the pot house or the public street. But that isnot the most humiliating part of the case. The appeal is not from parliament to the peo ple of England, but only to an Irish faction located in England, and so degraded are the ministers, so powerless in themselves, r hound and fettered by this faction, that they are compelled mire, or at least compelled to accept, the services of a bold, ._Perms, mendacious , and nnprincipled demagogue—a man W our class, who is not of hyttwed,.ef our ramify, who is not o f . heir the who has the boldness to insult us on our own soil -wh hi s fa " ae nr tat audacity to enter every town where he dare show p a l af i on ‘ ° i6 ti t t_e_e_h_rebellion to the half-alien and uneducated po pulation that he "‘ "'wee.

Under the excitement that prevails on the subject of specula tions in joint-stock companies. it is highly important, both to the government and to the public, to understand what the rela tive situation of the commercial interest is; for if that should be proved guilty of speculation and overtrading,, the more serious will the crisis be for which most men are now preparing them selves; and, on the contrary, should our trade and manufactures be found to rest on the solid basis of supply and demand, the better shall we be piepared to weather the slot m when it does come. On this head all the inquiries can be must satisfactorily answered, and the mode of making this perfectly clear will be to make a comparison of the state of the chief articles of import and consumption in the beginning of 1825. and in the present yeti.. There will be found no excess in any one point beyond what the healthy and flourishing state of our trade requires. No symptom of speculation in any commodity is discernible. We are indebted for the following figures to a gentleman whose operations necessarily make him fully conversant with these details. At the end of 1325 the stock of cotton on hand was 360,000 bales, on a consumption annually of 460,000, and the price of New Orleans cotton was from 170. to 20d. At present the cotton on hand is only 180.600 bales, and on an annual con sumption of nearly 1,000,000; and the price of New Orleans is Ild. to 1211. In 1825 the stock of coffee was 30,0001 b. ; the price of good middling plantation, 955. to 98s. ; at present the stock is only 13,000.0(kfb. ; the price 100 s. to 105 s. In 1825 the stock of plantation sugar was 43,000 hogsheads; and the nrice 58s. to 675.; at present the stock is 10,000 hogs heads; ! - he price, 61s. to 695. In 1825 the stock of tallow was 42.000 casks • the price, 35s 6d. per cwt.; at present the stock is 18,000 casks; the price 445. In 1825 the stock of rum was 25,000 puncheons, the price Is. 10d. to 2s. 6d. per gallon; at present the stock is 9,500 puncheons; and the price 3s. to 3s. 8;1 per gallon. The comparison might be pursued through several other arti cles, but the result would be the same, and' those mentioned are by far the most important. The inference is irresistible ; we are incumbered with no large stocks of any kind, and the price is kepi up apparently by the demand alone. In fact, it is no torious that our trade is so prosperous, and so rapidly on the in crease, that the chief difficulty with merchants and manufac turers is how to get the orders they receive executed. They must pay the market price of the article they want, but they charge at a corresponding rate fur the article they supply to the foreign consumer, and one•transaction is adjusted to the other. If these high prices should force on a glut of production and im portation, a decline will necessarily follow, but the relative po sition of the merchant and the manufacturer will be no worse— it will causs them no embarrassment, and they will simplv•be enabled to lower their charge to the foreign consumer. 'Phis is the ballast which will keep the vessel of the state steady on its course, amidst the distractions of an unsettled currency, and the wild speculations of people who have more money than wit.

Mr. Simpson says, the labourer might procure as many of the good things of this life for eight hours' labour per diem, as he now does for twelve, and that he ought not to work more; he might then devote four hours per day to the relaxation of his body or the cultivation of his mind. This would partially be the case, supposing the same suns to be paid for eight hours labour that is now paid for twelve. Let us apply this principle to some one branch of trade, the cotton manufacture for instance, and we shall see how it would act. The cotton cloth made annually in Great Britain amounts to about 760 millions of yards, of whirh quantity probably about one-halt is exported, its sale depending upon our being able to supply it at a less price than any other nation can afford to do. On the new system, however, we should only be able to manu facture two-thirds of this quantity, or about 560 millions, and the sam paid for labour being the same as before, the advance in price would produce a twofold evil. First, the quantity re tained for home consumption would be so much dearer that the labourer would be unable to procure a sufficient supply for the warm and comfortable clothing of himself and family; and, secondly, the p or ti on ex p or t e d' would no longer find a market, for other nations (especially when aided by the choicest speci mens of British machinery. which the dangerous policy advo cated by Lord Brougham allows to be exported) would undersell us, and consequently our cotton trade would fall into decay. The same woi.l I be the case with every other branch of manu facture. Let the working class determine to work only eight hours a day, and demand the same remuneration which they now receive for twelve hours' labour, and they will soon reduce the queen of nations to utter bankruptcy and ruin. Towards the conclusion the lecturer nressed upon the atten tion of his hearers the propriety of clubbing together and form ing stores, where they . might obtain . provisions, BLe. in smalls at holesale prices, and 8(i - do away with the intermediate profit of the shopkeeper. HEAR THIS 0 YE SHOPKEEPERS OF LIVER POOL! The men who, to obtain your interest for electioneering purposes, flattered your vanity, and told you that you were, if not the only, at least the most respectable portion of the com munity, have now brought a man to promulgate a doctrine, the practice of which would annihilate you at one fell swoop, which would reduce you to beggary; thousands of you, who have em barked your all in your respective businesses, and who are now enjoying the fruits of your enterprise and exertions, are to be driven from the respectable station you now hold in society, compelled to seek some other means of subsistence, and to sell your storks or whatever you can obtain from the operative stores. Wye exclaim, may y exclaim, "Save us from our frien d s !" This system, however, rcill not work in practice; it lies been tried in Liverpool and elsewhere, and it has failed. I might urge objections to many other parts of Mr. Simpson 's lectures, but my observations have already extended to a consi derable length ; I shall, therefore, conclude with a few words of advice and warning to the labouring. part of the community. When any man stoops to flatter you, when he tells you that you are destined for a superior rank to that which you now oc cupy, distrust him,. Remember that "all is not gold that glitters," and that the very stations to which you aspire have by the immutable decree or nature difficulties and trials which to you are comparatively unknown. It is true that you are an important part of the population, and that your comforts should he consulted and your interests protected, but certainly not at the expense of the interests of other classes; and you may rest assured, of what, indeed, a very little sober reflection will con vince you, that, ciespite of what interested lecturers or pretended philanthropists may urge to the contrary, whatever general measures contribute to advance the interests of the upper classes cannot fail, directly or indirectly, to contribute also to the wel fare of society in general.

Of animals we saw only an elegant striped quadruped about three feet high, like a miniatute zebra; which was always in small herds on the green sward of the hills; and two or three kinds of long-tailed birds, which we judged to be golden and blue pheasants. On the shores, however, we saw countless multitudes of univalve shell-fish, and among them some huge flat ones, which all three of my associates declared to be cornu ammonte.

" On searching the plain, over which we had observed the woods roving in all the shapes of clouds in the sky, we were again delighted with the discovery of animals. The first ob served was a quadruped with an amazingly long neck, head like a sheep, bearing two long spiral horns, white as polished ivory, and standing in perpendicular pqrrallel to each other. Its body was like that of the deer, but its fore legs were most disproportionally long, and its tail, which was very bushy and of a snowy whiteness, curled high over its rump, and hung two or three feet by its side. Its colours were bright bay and white in brindled patches, clearly defined, but of no regular form. It was found only in pairs, in spaces between the woods, and we had no opportunity of witnessing its speed or habits. But a few minutes only elapsed before three specimens of another animal appeared, so well known to us all that we fairly laughed at the recognition of so familiar an acquaintance in so far dis tant a land. They were neither more nor - less than three good large sheep, which would not have disgraced the farms of Lei cestershire, or the shambles of Leadenhall-market. With the utinostscrutiny, we could find no mark of distinction between these and those of our native soil ; they had not even the appendage over the eyes, which I have described as common to lunar quadrupeds. Presently they appeared in great numbers, and on reducing the lenses, we found them in flocks over a great part of the valley. 1 need not say how desirous we were of finding shepherds to these flocks, and even a man with blue apron and rolled-up sleeves would have been a welcome s i g ht to us, if not to the sheep ; but they fed in peace, lords of their own pastures, without either protector or destroyer in human shape."

"We at length approached the level opening of the lake, where the valley narrows to a mile in width, and displays scenery on both sides picturesque and romanti c b e y o nd the powers of a prose description. Imagination, borne on the wings of poetry, could alone gather similes to pourtray the wild sub limity of this landscape, where dark behemoth crags stood over the brows of lofty precipices, as if a rampant in the sky; and forests seemed suspended in mid-air. On the eastern side there was one soaring crag, crested with trees, which hung over a curve like three-fourths of a gothic arch, and being of a rich crimson colour, its effect was most strange upon minds unac customed to the association of such grandeur with such beauty. But whilst gazing upon them in a perspective of about half a mile, we were thrilled with astonishment to perceive fonr suc cessive flocks of large winged creatures, wholly unlike any kind of birds, descend with a slow even motion from the cliffs on the western side, and alight upon the plain. They were first no ticed by Dr. Herschel, who exclaimed, Now, gentlemen. my theories against your proofs, which you have often fOund a pretty even bet, we have here something writ•th looking at I was con fident that if ever we found beings in human shape, it would be in this longitude, and that they would be provided by their Crea tor with some extraordinary powers of locomotion; first ex change for my number D.' - This lens being soon introduced, gave us a fine half-mile distance; and we counted three par ties of these creatures, of 12, 9, and 15. in each, walking erect toward a small wood near the base of the eastern precipices.

Having observed them at this distance for some minutes, we introduced lens H. z. which brought them to the apparent proximity of eighty yards : the highest dear magni tude we possessed until the latter end of March, when we ef fected an improvement in the gas-burners.

During the middle ages, in the Whitsuntide holydays, the English nobility amused themselves with running their horses. In the ancient metrical romance of " Syr Bevis of Southamp• ton" it is said— " In comer, at I Vhysontyde, When knyghtes do on horsbacke ryde A couis, let they make on a dye Steedes and paulfraye, for to assaye ; Whyche hots that beste maye ren, Thre myles the tours was then Who that myghte ryde him sholde Have fourty pounds of redy guide." The learned Cummenius, in his " Orbis Sensualitim Pietuti," published towards the close of the sixteenth century, says, " At this day tilting or the quintain isl;sed at Whitsuntide, wh en a ring is struck with a ti uncheon, instead of horse racing, which," adds he, " is.now grown out of use." Leland, Henry the Eighth's Antiquary, tells us that it was a custom at Bath, at Whitsuntide, to elect .a king every year from among the townsmen, " because King Edgar was crowned at Bath, and in joyful remembrance of the privileges given to the town by that Monarch." One of the most strange customs which time has handed down to us prevails at St. Briavels, in Gloucestershire. On Whit-Monday several baskets full of bread and cheese, cut into small squares of about an inch each, are brought into the church, and immediately after divine service is ended the churchwardens, or some other persons, take them into the gal leries, from whence their contents are thrown among the con gregation, who have a grand scramble for it in the body of the church, and the tumult on the occasions is always very great; sometimes, indeed, of a character very ill suited to a sacred edifice. This custom is held for the purpose of preserving to the poor of St. Briavels and Ilewellield the right of cutting and carrying away wood froirr3ooo acres of coppice land in Hurl knolls and the Meinds, and for which every housekeeper is assessed 2d, to buy the bread and cheese given away. " In ancient times," says a learned and judicious antiquary!, " the Sheriff of NeWcastle, accompanied by a great number of burgesses, used to go every year at Whitsuntide to the Forth, the little mall of the town, with the mace, the sword, and the cap of maintenance carried before them." Even at the pre sent time the young people continue to assemble there at that season of the year, and play at hand-ball, but are no longer countenanced In their amusement by the presence of their governors. allpptltq intelligence.
