Curry, Dublin Walnosley, Liverpool- Coombe Abbey has at length come to a conclusion. The story is founded upon the history of Guy Fawkes and that of his coconspirators. A love-tale is woven into it, but we cannot say we admire this part of the work. The au thoress has placed a number of difficulties in the way of the lovers, which in everyday life, she must be aware, would be cleared up in five minutes ; and the misunderstanding under which De Lacy and Edith St. Clare are made to labour, is quits unusual and unlikely in their situation. The last num ber la rather spun out ; out, taken altogether, the work is amusing, and may be read with pleasure. Its decided moral tendency is a great recommendation. It goes in this parti cular further than most works of its class. _,--- THE LATE SIR ROBT. HOLT LEIGH, BART, [From the Gentleman's Magazine, Vol. XIX, New Series, for March, 1843.] Hall, near Wigan, Died, January 21, at his seat, Hendley Lancashire, in his eighty-first year, Sir Robert Holt Leigh, Bart., a Deputy Lieutenant for that county, and many year's M.P. for Wigan. This venerable octogenarian was the eldest son of Holt Leigh, Esq., of Hendley and Whiteley Halls, Lancashire, by Mary, his wife, younger daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Owens, Esq., of UphoHand Abbey, in that county, by Margaret, his wife, only daughter and heiress of Thomas Bispuatn, of Bispham, Esq., and he was born at his father's town residence, in Wigan, on the 2fith Dee, 1762. He was descended from a highly respectable line of ancestry, who have been possessed of landed property in the part of L ancashire; before alluded to for several cen turies past ; but it cannot be maintained, as Mr. Burke, in the account of the family in his baronetage, asserts, that they are Of the same descent as the Leighs of Alderton, in the county of Chester which is unque stionably an error. In the surname alone, this inaccuracy is Lech ; detec ted, for th the at of the latter family has . alway s been s pelled whereas branch from which the decease d baronet was desce nded has universally been spelled Leigh. The Public are in debted to the late baronet's grandfather, Alexander* Leigh, Esq. of Bretberton, for the ca This nal whichunifi ststeads from Wigan to the river Ribble.bble. he m °en* completed at his own sole expense, under the provi sions of an act of parliament, which he obtained in the year 1720- The prosperity of Wigan and the neighbourhood has been materially advanced by means of this spirited under taking. and the facilities of navigation thus afforded. Sir Robert Holt Leigh was M.A of Christ's Church College, Oxford ; but, singularly enough, he did not take his degree st the university until he was seven t y y ears of age. He rep resented the borough of Wigan f or several years in in He was first re t urn ed by that constituency in 1802, and continued to sit xis their representative until the general election in 1820, when he voluntarily resigned, and was sue_ seeded b Lord Lindsay, the present Earl of Balcarres. He was a staunch Unigervative in politics, and during his Mr par liamentary c ar eer' was was firm supporter of Mr. Pitt and. Canning , except on. the Roman Catholic question, on which he was opposed' to them. On the accession of Mr. Canning to ofice be was created baronet, by patent dated 22nd May, 1815, with remainder to the issue male of his father, none of whom, however, are surviving; and the baronet having died a bachelor, the title is extinct. In the year 1831, during the agitation consequent on the reform question, he suffered grevionely from the violence of the mob at the urigan elec tion, where he appeared as the representa tive of his f riend, the late W. Hodson Kearsley, who was one of the candi dates on that occasion. In 1798 , when the peace of the country was disturbed b y riots and discontent, a society of gentlemen was formed in Wigan. called the Wigan Arms Association, of which corps himself Rob ert was for many years commandant, and distinguished considerably, in various encounters, where they were called mar upon to act. He was senior trustee of the Free Gram as well l of Wigan, and took especial interest in its welfare, with his as in that of all the other public institutions connected w hi l s t native town. The latter years of Sir Robert's life spent almost entirely at his residence, near Wiga9; where b e e n acknowledged as the "Old English Gentleman of the w district.

With reference to animals we have the following :—Birds ley or Burdley, Beesley, Buckley, Cowley, Crowley, Chick ley, Harley or Hareley, Horseley, Foxley, Hindley, Hartley, Oxley, Shepley [i. e. Sheepley], Henley, Finchley, &c. In reference to different qualities, size, and other circum stances, we have made a selection of the following :—Brown ley, Whiteley, Blackley, Yellowley, Ridley or Redley Fall from the colour Eckersley Ji. c. ley of an acre], ‘Veekly e. let at a weekly rent], learsley [i. e. let at a yea:ly ;3, Bradley [corruption of hroadley], Chalk ley, Roughlcy, Smalley, \\Torsley, Huntley [connected in some way with bunting', Ditchley, Minaterley [near or belonging to a minister], Priestley, B arns l ey [ w i t h a Liam], Aleanley, Rockley. Marley [producing marl], Pooley [having a pooh Crossley, Litley [i. e. little ley], Net! The surnames above enumerate _nprisc but a few of the class ; but I think the number is sufficient to show, that they were appropriated to the localities and tenements called 1 - s.friPla f 11Pu wcwgz sve.ri bable, that in some instances the lees took their name from the owners or tenants, Kersley, Dodsley, WilLesley, &c. The etymology of the greater number of them is obscure. There are several terminations used in the composition of surnames, and they were applied to form them upon a simi lar principle with ley. The most frequently occurring are Bourne, Shaw, Ford, Gate, Brook, Bridge, Well, Den. The meaning of others of the same kind is less obvious ; Lowe, Hithe, Hurst, Twisle, Hulme or Holme, Thwaite, Clough, Halgh,By or Bye, New, Sey, Cross, Worth, Wick, &c.* I include in the next class of surnames those which are borrowed from natural objects of various kinds, both generie and specific, animate and inanimate. These are so numerous as to admit of an imperfect classification :—Mountain—Snow don ; till—Brownhill, Brickhill ; Forest—Dean ; Sher wood, Lake—Windex, Derwentwater ; Grove, equivalent to burst and wood—Musgrove, Hazlehurst, Hazlewood ; Rivers —Mersey, Severn, Medlock ; Brook—Bray brook ; Field— Fairfield, Greenfield ; Tree—Ash, Birch, Pine ; Flower— Rose, Lilly, Pink; Animal (itself not a surname, but) — Bull, Fox, Hare, Lion. Lamb, Wolfe; Bird—Swallow, Wren, Sparrow, Rook, Crow, Finch, with many more; Fish —Salmon, Roach, Pike, Herring, Crabbe, Dace, Ch u bb, &c Most of the following, not inserted here methodically, are appropriated to form surnames, both in a simple and compound state :—Fountain, Moor, Church, Heath, Kirk, Booth, Bell, Wain, Meadows, Way, Lane, Rock, Stone, Bush, Cave, Clay, Stone, Hay, Den, Horn, Street, Hall, Hill, Butter; Child, Man, Box, Still, Moon, Winter, with a great many besides. Why the common names of such ob jects were chosen as surnames, it is difficult to say ; but the choice was evidently made without much fastidiousness; and for that reason we conclude, that they were chiefly appropri ated to the "lower orders," who were neither disposed, nor had a right, to be nice. It is not improbable that some of them wire given in mockery; and perhaps they had some reference to persons' employment. Of this sort probably are—Ashead, Trotter, Cannon. Pott, Carr, Cork, Cotton, Plant, Needle, Pool, Bridge, Gill, Parrot, Hook, Kettle, Webb, Trowell, Coulter, Cousin, Crew, Bell, Harrow, Tun, Spar, Silver, Mattock, Hood, Pray, Court, Cowhand a very great number besides. I now-proceed to another class of surnames—those which were derived from, or related to, the titles, offices, profes sions, the trades, handicrafts and employments, and the cha racter and personal qualities of individuals. The surnames included in this class are exceedingly nume rous ; but the evidence of their origin is so obvious, that a long enumeration is not deemad necessary. Derived froth titles we have King, Prince, Lord, Baron. &c. From offices are derived Pope, Abbot, Priest, Monk, Bishop, Constable, Mayor or Major, Bailiff, Chamberlain. Bor rowe d f rom pro fessions we find Law, Physick, Clerk, Leech, Parson, Ser mon. From trades are derived Merchant, Draper, Haw ker. Numerous handicrafts have been adapted as surnames —Turner, Carpenter, Cooper, Mason, Thatcher, Weaver, Arrowsmith, Cartwright, &o. And the following are to be referred to character and personal qualities—Meek, Cross, Merry; Wilde, Jolly, Moody, Wiseman, Idle, Long, Short, Strong, Swift, Quick, White, Brown, Scarlet, Green, Black, Armstrong, Strongitbarm, Merriman, Sharp, Savage, Gay, &c. &c. Another class of surnames originated in the disposition of our countrymen to make merry at the expense of their neigh bours ; that is, they were nicknames, to which some personal deformity, or some outward circumstance in the appearance, history or character gave rise. Thus we observe the not un frequent occurrence of such names as Sheepshanks, Crook shanks, Shuffiebottom, Muddiroan, Wildgoose, Gudgeon, Sourbutts, Longbottom, . Rainbow, Curson, Stringfellow, &c. &c. It is impossible to say what proportion of the nu merous list of surnames at present in use owe their existence to this whaggish propensity ; but I think the number is much greater than is commonly imagined. Why should such de signations be adopted as Wolfe, Lion, Snow, Broadbent, Wildbore, Ladyman, Browbill, Savage, Lovelace, Jiges, Bray, Woodhead, Sweetlove, but for the sake of insinuating some ridiculous or reproachful circumstance, or of conveying some satirical reflection ?—Rev. W. Johns, in Memoirs of Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society. * Lowe means a rising ground ; Hithe, a small haven ; Hurst, a thicket of trees; 1 think Thwaite signifies to ex change or traffic; Clough, a precipitate descent; the others rather uncertain.—Many of the words in the two last periods are used for names singly, as well as in composition. VARIETIES A PRamous NURSERY GROUND.—The children of the sloping isle of Rattray, when they first begin to toddle about, are tethered to a stake to prevent them from rolling off into the.seal— Wilson's Voyaye round Scotland. The world is like a large plum-pudding. :There is an abundance of fruit in it too, but somehow it does:not appear to be well mixed and stirred ; for we daily see some cut a slice and get nothing but the burnt crust ; while others, with less brains, and born to good luck, obtain a plum. LF.NGTH OF BRIDGES.—The longest bridge in Spain is the Alcanta, stone, 1,990 f ee t ; i n F rance, t h e woo d en b r i dge of Avignon, 1,710 feet ; in Ireland, at Belfast, wood, 2,500 feet ; in England, at Berwick, stone, 1,154 feet ; Black friars, 995 feet; Waterloo, 1,242 ; Westminster, 1,223; London, 930; in Wales, Menai Bridge, 1,600 feet. MIS-SPELLING.—Few words are so often erroneously spelt as those ending in y or ey, when they change their form, as when the singular noun becomes plural, or the verb in the first person is changed to the second. In an advertise ment of a work on arithmetic I lately saw " monies !" and we frequently see " attornies," " vallies," &c., an error which only be matched by " follys," " ponys," "jellys," &c. The proper rule is very simple : y following a consonant, re quires ies ; ey requires only the addition of a. Hence attor ney, attorneys ; valley, valleys ; money, moneys ; survey, surveys ; and also, pony, ponies ; folly, follies ; carry, car ries, &e. These are correct, and the difference may be easily remembered. TPE KEMBLES.—EVADING PENALTIES FOR PERFORM ANCE OF THE REGULAR DRAMA.—By the minutes of evi dence before the select committee of the house of commons on dramatic literature, in 1832, it would appear, that four of the Kembles once acted together, Mrs. Siddons being at that ti m e the heroine (it is believed at Wolverhampton), and no money was taken at the door; but a playbill was handed about with,—" Nola Bene, no money taken at the do o r, b u t Mr. So-and-so (naming the performer) has a very excellent tooth-powder at 2s. Id. a box ;"—this tooth-powder being purchased and considered as a ticket, and the trick being adopted with the vjew to evade the statute-imposing penal -teainst persons performing for hire or reward any inter ludo, &C SCIEIDE A. MISDEMEANOUR BY THE ENGLISH LAW. - In charging the grand jury at the Hull sessions, the present learned recorder mentioned the curious circumstance of two cases o f attempted suicide, for which the parties were char ged criminally at the sessions. The learned gentleman said ; •' Th ere were two cases in the calendar which he had never see n brought before a court of justice in the course of his practice ; they were attempts to commit the crime of suicide. Now, there could be no doubt that this was a crime, and one of a very deep character; and an attempt to commit it was a crime of misdemeanour. When that attempt succeeds, the guilty party cannot be brought under human law ; but when the party makes the attempt and survives, he may be called upon to answer for his conduct. It is an indictable offence, and one of a very high nature."—Juryman's Legal Hand-book. RUSSIAN RAILROADS.-It appears from a statement made I at St. Petersburg by Count Benkendorff to a general meeting of the shareholders of the Zarskoe Zeloe railroad, that the number of passengers conveyed by it during the last year was 432,294, that the total receipts amounted to 238,138 silver roubles (nearly a million of francs) and the expenses to 106,669 roubles, leaving a profit of 131,468. In 1841 the number of passengers was 42.5.552,. the receipts amounted to profit to 414,079 roubles. From this account it is seen that I the number of passengers in 1842 exceeded that of 1841 by, 6,772, and th . e receipts of the last were greater than those of the preceding year by 2,167 roubles, although in 1841 there 7,000 roubles paid for the conveyance of the crown provi sions, an item which does not appear in the account for 1842. In this last year the net profit exceeded that of its prede- expeuditt pts, an instance I I cessor on the gross recei by very few rai. —just the la out of -suss's. o f success equaliet. hundred dollars—three hundred and five—going at titre ,-- we e ,: __ —a moreuseful hundred and five dollars—gone."

In 1809, in her 18th year, the family circumstances were much improved by the pruleS-' sional advancement of her brother, now Colonel Sir Henry Brown ; they were thus enabled to move into a better house, at Bronwylfa, near St. Asaph's, in Flintshire. About the same period Miss Brown was introduced to a young officer, Captain Hemans. She married him, and thus became Mrs. Hemans. About the same time she published her first volume of poems—" Early Blossoms, the Domestic Affections, and the Bards." This marriage was not fortunate, and was soon followed by a voluntary separation, Mrs. Hemans remaining at Bronwylfa, whilst her husband followed his regiment. From this time till her death, in 1835. she continued publish int; her several poems,—her " Lays of other Lands," her " 'Records of Women,"• and h er " N at i ona l Lyrics." The public favour has established the merit of these works, and it is plea Sing to be enabled to add that the large .profits af forded her the means of living in comfort during her life, and establishing in moderate competency the children who sur vived her.—Lives of Literary Women. MISCELLANEOUS DOVER.—It is contemplated to erect two churches here The sum of £BOO is already subscribed for the purpose. His Majesty the King of Hanover is expected to arrive or, a visit to this country about the middle of May. THAMES TUNNEL.—The fir,it tao days 50,000 persons passed through, on the payment of Id. each. On Wednesday lest, five mer employed in a colliery near Bilston, were unhappily wn down a pit and killed. On Sunday last the steel: and premises of Mr. Francis, letter-press printer, Brighton, were destroyed by tire. The Pembrokeshire grand jury have found a true bill for felony against Thomas and 'David Howell, two of " Re becca's Daughters." The Smyrna Journal states that a butcher of that city has been arrested for sending to market quarters and joints of large dogs, and selling them as mutton. KNARESBOROUGII.—There are upwards of three hundred houses unoccupied in the borough of Knaresborough, which contains a population of little more than 5,000 souls. The Madrid papers, of the 15th, announce that the first omnibus ever seen in the streets of the Spanish capital was started the day before. A youth, named John Thomas, of Liverpool, aged 15, preached two sermons on Sunday week, in the Welsh language, at the Wesleyan Chapel, R One of the waiters at the Senior United Service Club has absconded from that establishment, carrying off £lOO re ceived on account of the club. NEW ELECTION FOR DURIIAM. —On Monday night a writ was moved for another election for Durham, in the room of Captain Fitzroy, the Contervative member, who has been appointed Governor of New Zealand. The engine-driver, Jenkins, committed on the coroner's warrant for the manslaughter of Mr. Harvey, at the Barns ley station of the North Midland Railway, has been ac quitted. CRUELTIES OF JUG GERNAUT. —The following extract from a letter of the Bishop of Calcutta contains a forcible picture of the Juggernaut idolatries :—" I have visited the valley of death. I have seen the den of darkness. Jugger naut has been trodden by these feet, and seen with these eyes, after thirty or forty years hearing about it. The dread pagoda is situated in the vicinity of this village, called Pooree, of which the narrow streets and wretched abodes are only emblems of the moral ruin and misery it diffuses. A town of 50,000 souls is held together by the direst superstition ; no trade but sin, no art but delusion and lies, no bond of union but communion in idolatry. Nothing has yet been dune to abolish these idolatries. The horrors are unutterable. 150,000 pilgrims attend yearly, of whom about one-third perish by hunger, fatigue, or cholera, yearly. They come from all parts of India. The larger number are women ; who concert their plans for the journey unknown to their husbands and families, and start off at a moment. The abominations con- sequent may be judged of by this trait. It is a scene of plunder, cruelty, and lust. When the caravans arrive, a perpetual tight takes place among the Pooree inhabitants who shall receive the helpless wretches, who are plundered, not only of all they possess or can procure, but of all they can borrow at immense interest. About five days finish the process ; the stripped multitude then proceed on their re turn. The sick are uniformly left behind, to whiten with their bones the accursed plains. Those plains are barren sands, thrown up from the beach by the south-east monsoon. The seasons of pestilence are chosen, as it were, to heighten the misery ; for instance, June, when the extreme heat is suddenly succeeded by the rains and the cholera among the undefended crowds. The sick still throw themselves under the wheels of the car; bands of music, troops of dancers, or prostitutes of the vilest order, noisy, intemperate debauchery, with the most filthy and unutterable pollutions in figures, exhibitions, and songs, make up the religious rites of Jugger naut. The pagoda, or circuit of the enclosed temple, is a mass of heavy building, of which no one is allowed to pene trate the interior, because the cooking is perpetually going on in the inner circuits, and the passing of a Christian would defile the whole culinary establishment. If we had chosen to pay 2.000 rupees for recleansing the sanctuary afterwards, we might have been admitted. Such is Juggernaut! Dr. Buchanan's description is most true. Cruelty, lust, op pression, disease, famine, death, follow in the train." We only ask, what are we to think of Lord Auckland's allowing the continuance of such abominations under the patronage j of his government, and in so doing acting in opposition to his own council? MARRIAGE OR DEATH.---I sallied out for a stroll on the Pont Neuf, in all the splendour of a new plume. Abutting on this bridge, there was a tower, which served the purposes of a prison. Within were confined several ladies of' rank. At this time there was a regulation, that a republican soldier might marry a noble female prisoner, and thus effect her liberation. At the same time, however, he became respon sible for her conduct. If it chanced that she was afterwards found guilty of any aristocratic complicity, the husband was at once considered as an 'accomplice. The ladies in the prison wishing, no doubt, for liberty, called to us, holding at the same ti me bill ets- d oux in their hands, " Citoyen, eitoyen," We were well aware of the meaning of this. The billet-doux contained an offer of marriage. As there were some pretty girls among them, we immediately inquired for which of us the notes were intended, and they forthwith explained. The note intended for me contained an invita tion to come into the gaoler's lodge, and have a conversa tion. Away we went to the gaoler's, anti sent for the parties in question. When they came, eaoh one instantly rushed into the arms of her chosen squire. Mine was most affectionate and tender. I could save her life, she said ; she was possessed of considerable wealth—a castle in La Vend6e, and so forth. We sent for biscuits and wine, and, partly influenced by their charms, partly touched . with pity for their misfortunes, partly, too, blinded by, the glittering prospects they held out to us, promised to marry them. Next day we actually did wait on our captain, and represented the case to him. But he prudently admonished us on the great hazard we ran in marrying females belonging to - noble families, for whom we should have to be responsible, and who, as soon as they had escaped from the guillotine, would take the first opportunity to decamp, and thus involve us in difficulties. This brought us again to our senses: Wishing, however, to give the girls an answer, we went to the jailer for the purpose of seeing them once more. But they had just been sentenced to death ; and next morning, at eleven o'clock, they were to be guillotined. In the square'where the guillotine used to work was the coffee-house at which we breakfasted. At eleven, the unhappy creatures were brought to the spot. Believing in our asservations, they still gazed around with longing, lingering looks, as if in hopes of discovering us. We care, fully avoided their glances, which every montent became more and more sorrowful, the nearer they approached the scaffold. My chosen one was the wand to mount, and in a few seconds the five beautiful maidens were no more.—Life of j. Sleininger. TURKISH PIPES.—The wonderful way in which the use of tobacco has spread into every country of the world, in less than three centuries since its first discovery in America, hap pened to be mentioned in conversation the day Mr, Maude spent here ; and we were all amused by his account of the mode of smoking in Turkey. The Turkish pipe, which is called a Mibouque, consists of the tube, the bowl, and the mouthpiece, so that they are ail easily separated and cleaned. The manufacturers of the tubes are 'seen at work every day in the shops of Constantinople,where there is a bazaar, or street of shops, entirely for their sale. They are made from the young straight stems of cherry-tree or jessamine, on which the bark is carefully preserved ; they are from two to six feet in length, and are nicely bored with a wire auger. The nursing these stems, during their growth, is often the sup port of a whole family, and requires a good deal of attention. To prevent the bark , from splitting in the heat of the day, each stem is swathed in wet bandages, and the least tendency to become crooked is counteracted, either by a judicious ap plieation of the bandage, or by more copiously watering the plant on one side than the other. A perfectly straight stem, with a uniformly shining bark, is, however, a great rarity, and sells for about two guineas. The bowls are made of a clay called kefkil, found in Asia-Minor and in Greece. In its native state it is soft and white, but, when baked, it be comes hard ; and, unlike the English pipeclay, turns to a black or red colour. The bowls are made of all sizes. The Turks do not like them very large; but. those exported to Germany, where they are polished and finished with great elegance, are as large as a man's hand. Mr. Maude gays he was astonished by the piles of bovils in every. shop of the bazaar. The bowls are frequently ornamented with gilding, and the tubes with embroidery and jewels; but it is on the value of the mouth-piece that a Turk prides himself. Node but the miserably poor would use anything but amber ; and though the common sort are cheap enough to suit all ranks, Mr. Maude has seen some which cost a hundred pounds, not from their size, but from some favourite tinge in their ap pearance. " With such a pipe," he says, " and with Salo niki tobacco, a Turk is supremely happy. Cross-legged on his Persian carpet, he enjoys it the whole day, and, except to call for more tobacco, or for a cup of coffee, he seldom opens his mouth, as the smoke is emitted, from time to time, in long cloudy columns from his nose. Pipes take the lead in every visit, and are prelimina r i es t o every conversat i on. T he most flattering compliment a Turk can pay to his guest is to present him with his chibouque warm from his lips; and I shall never forget the mixed look of indignation and contempt which a bashaw of three tails threw at an Englishman, who unwarily wiped the superb amber mouthpiece before he in troduced it between his own lips."—Bertha's Journal. TIIE SLAVE AUCTION. — Being detained a day in Mobile, I visited the slave market. The hour of sale had not arrived; but I found six poor creatures awaiting their doom, surround ed by persons who were examining them. The market-place is happily chosen. It is in front of the Court-house—its steps are the auctioneer's stand, What place so fit for the sale of human souls as the vestibule of the temple of justice? It was the day of the municipal election; the court was in ses sion, and employed in naturalizing foreigners—making free citizens of European strangers, while American-born men were standing at the door about to be sold like brutes to the highest bidder. The court adjourned about noon. The crowd gathered round as the auctioneer mounted the steps, and called one of the slaves, a woman, to take her place on the stand. Shs approached sadly; perhaps she was thinki ng on her efiildren, left without a. mother.. May God care for them ! " Here, gentlemen, is Sophia —a good servant. How much •am I offered for. Sophia ? one hundred dollars—title good—only one hundred dollars is offered--one hundred and fifty:" Bystander—" How old is she ?" " Forty years old —good cook, washer, and ironer. She will save you twenty five dollars a month—going at one hundred and fifty dollars. One hundred and seventy-five—going—one hundred and b Lwice—gone." Another woman was called. She seemed careless, and unconcerned : oppres sion had crushed her soul. " Here, gentlemen, is Sally7-nn excellent cook. How much is bid? Title guaranteed—the smallest favours thankfully received—three hundred dollars is offered—she can cook French fashion, English fashion, and every other fashion—three hundred dollars—four hundred —why, gentlemen, she is given away—only four hundred dollars for a good cook—four hundred and fifty—going at four hundred and fifty—four hundred a n d s i xty — go i ng —once, twice—gone." The next individual sold was a drayman, who was bid off at four hundred and sixty dollars. Then came a little girl, ten years old. " Here, gentlemen, is a girl from the country—title can't be disputed —one hundred dollars is bid—she speaks French—she don't understand English." Bystander.-L" Is she an American ?'; " Yes." Habit come to this, thought I. Is the American name a marketable com modity ? A Roman citizen was respected among barbarians ; but in our country the American name adds value to a slave' She was finally struck off at one hundred and nine ..... dollars. Another trembling little girl was placed upon the stand. " How much am I offered for this girl Peggy ? Sheds ten years old—title good—one hundred and fifty dollars is bid— she is a very intelligent girl—two hundred dollars—she is a good nurse—and two hundred dollars is all I am offered—she is healthy —a little scared, just now —two hundred and fifty dollars—who said three hundred ?-0,0 ;€, The office of Inspecior of Prisons, vacant by the death of Dr.t Short, has been conferred by the Secretary of State upon Mr. J.

ExcnEgota BILLS.--13y a parliamentary paper just pub lished it appears that the amount authorised to be raised, charged in the supplies of 1833, was £18,203,000 from which, deduct £103,200 paid off in money in 1242, and 5,700 olds out-standing bills, leaving £18,182,300 to be provided for its the present year. TIIREATENINii A. BISHOP.—The Bishop of Exeter has been compelled to bring a clergyman, the Rev. W. Tuckei , ,, before the magistrates, for writing letters to his lordship con.- tabling threats of a fearful description. The reverend gerb.. tlernan is insane, and is to be confined at the Lunatic Asykuns in Exeter. THE PRINCE OF WALES.—It is generally rumoured ita, the court circles that a separate establishment will shortly be! formed for his Royal Highness the Prince of Wales. There is every reason to believe a number of domestics vat be selected for the young prince not in any way connected; with, her Majesty's household. They are constructing at present, in the prison of Orleans,. a dungeon for prisoners condemned to death. It is in the , form of an obelisk, with the angles rounded off, so as to ren— der it impousible to climb up them.

LARGE TAKE OF. FISH. — A gentleman, fishing with a single line, which he only threw out and h au l e d i n th ree times, between F or t George an Nairn Bay, caught the great weight of 7911 b. of fish, consisting of turbot, hallibut, skate, cod, and ling. One of the turbot weighed 1611 b. ; one of skates 69i1b., and another Glib.; and seven of the ballibut weighted resdectively 601 b., 511 b, 491 b., 471 b., 431 b., 341 b., and 331 b s - s hi r e Advertiser. THREE V ESSELS R UN DowN.-0n Monday l as t, t h e b r i g Commerce, o f S ou th wo ld, laden with coal s , was ruts i nto off F:larnhorough Head, and went down, leaving the crew just time to escape. On Tuesday. the galliot Elizabeth sunk near Belfast, in consequence of a collision with a schooner ; and on Thursday, two vessels, colliers, ran into each other off Yarmouth, when one went down, and the other ran ashore near Coroner, where the crews of both got ashore. MR. BRAHAM'S AGE.—Extract of a letter from Mr. Braham to the editor of the Birmingham Advertiser, dated March 20, 1840 i—" I made my first appearance very early in life, at the age of 10, at the Royalty Theatre, in 1787, and on this very day (tnx birth-day, March 20) lam 63." It follows, therefore, that iiistead of bei ng an octogenarian, as some folks asser t, Mr. Braham was 66 on Monday, the 20th instant. At the last masked ball, at the grand theatre at Brussels, some mischievous persons strewed about an immense quan. tity of black pepper. The dancing had scarcely commenced, when the pepper being driven upwards by the motion of the feet; got into the eyes, nostrils, and throats, of all who were present, and for a long time nothing was heard but sneezing and coughing. The dancing was suspended, and could not be resumed until the boards had been twice watered and swept. Early on Saturday morning, as a very heavily laden van, from the railway terminus in Euston-square, was passing through Ray-street, Clerkenwell, one of the hind wheels tame off, and the carriage was immediately overset, falling an a poor old man who obtained a living dy vending water tresses, and litterally crushing him to pieces. The driver iimself had a narrow escape, and the shaft horse was thrown town and very seriously injured. TOE PLAGUE OF RATS.—We understand that the island of Jamaica is this year infested with rats to the most extra ordinary extent, and that in some districts they are devouring the sugar canes like a swarm of locusts. On one estate, which ought to have yielded IG.hogsheads of sugar, it is not expected that there will be more than five, two-thirds of the canes having been consumed by these insatiable depredators. AN ANTE-DILUVIAN TOAD.—On Saturday week, while some workmen were employed at their avocation in Boag quarry, near Stevenston, they, on breaking up a piece of rock, found a toad imbedded in the mass. On being released from its prison-house, it lay motionless for several minutes, but eventually become animated, and at present is quite lively. It is very large, and somewhat different in appearance from the common toad. The curious may see it in possession of Mr. William Logan, Stevenson.—Ayr Advertiser. • CIIARACTERISTIC.—An officar holding a commission in a regiment under sailing orders, for one of the colonies not the most popular amongst the British possessions, sent in his " sealed papers" within the last week to the Horse Guards, regularly endorsed, and with the view of effecting an exchange. Ile received the packet on calling, in a day or two, unopened, with this significant sentence and initial written on the en velope : " sell or sail." Ili W.ll At the Beaumaris Assizes last week, a case of crim. con (Evans v. Elliott) was tried, and a verdict of £5OO damages obtained. Plaintiff was about 24, a native of some place near Tamworth, and after a short courtship married his wife, who was at the time a b ou t 18 , and the daughter of a solicitor at Wenlock. They res id e d at Anglesey, apparently on harmo nious terms, until November last year, when defendant, who is scarcely 20, came on a visit to them, and in less than a fortnight the unfortunate woman fell. MATRIMONY.—The Morning Herald of Monday con tains the following advertisement. We omit the address:— " A gentleman (a widower), of good property, residing in a beautiful part of the country, an easy distance from town, is desirous of meeting ticated lady, a spi nster, of Christian Calvanistic principles, with an am i able, persona bl e, an d domes a lover of the truth, to share with him the blessings he en joys ; age not under 40, as the gentleman is 10 years more. It is presumed that none through folly will reply to this, as the most honourable intentions only are meant, and the great est secrecy will be observed.

They had been married in England according to the rites of the Protestant Chureb, but as the lady was a Catholic, they came over to receive the benediction of her own. The happy couple were received with every mark of cordial welcome, which they returned by giving halls, dinners, and other entertainments, driving about I during the day O A g splendid equipage, and bestow* gifts on all around. The Times of Monday states, that the Aylesbury Railway is about to pass into the hands of the London and Birming ham Company, and that a committee has already been ap pointed to negociate the terms of sale. The principal bankers of Leeds have given public notice that henceforth they will alloy no more than 2 per cent. on deposits. This will probably lead to the investment of money in trade, and do some little local good. Three students in St. Andrew's University, Edinburgh, have been expelled in consequenc e of having precipitated themselve s into very extreme difficulties, from which they cannot extricate themselves. The Duke of Newcastle has addressed a letter to Mr. 'Walter, expressive of his Grace's surprise at the result of the Nottingham election petition, and of the very nroper manner in which Mr. 'Walter s election was carried on. A young lady, 19 years of age, daughter of Mr. Granville, of Bedford-square, Brighon, was killed by a fall from her horse, whilst riding in company with two other ladies and a gentleman. CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITV.--THE CHANCELLORS' ME DALS.—These distinguished honours have been just coo ferred upon the two following gentlemen.:—Mr. Gifford St. John's College ; Mr. D ruce, S t. P eter ' s. , rf t M ARGATE, MARCH 23.--:-By the much-lamented deatio of W. C. L. Keene, Esq. , and W. Nethers o l e , Esq., a populous place is actually left Ali without a resident mayistratrr —a fact not to be equalled in all England. A person named Erck, a clerk to Mr. Henry, of Abbe - street, was sent on Satuiday to the Bank of Ireland wit& £315 to pay some bills; but, instead of doing so, he got small notes for the money, and decamped, and has not Jame been heard of. On the 20th instant, the boat used for putting passengm on board and landing them from the various steamers calling off this port, was upset near the East Pier—being struck on the side by two heavy seas—when the crew, consisting of five men, were pitched into the water, and two of them were drowned.—Fife paper. STA RVATION.—On Sunday last a man of the name of John , Hamilton, a compositor, aged 50, was found dead in bed at his lodgings, in London. He was strongly advised to enter the union workhouse, but he declared that he would starve first, to which dreadful death he fell a prey. On Monday night a female, in passing along Blackfriars rood. London, and not perceiving that the iron grating in front of a shop was removed, fell down, head foremost, into the area, and struck her head with such violence as to cause her death in a very short time. At Shrewsbury, last week,, William Shakspeare was bound over to keep the peace for three months, for fighting in the Bugle, whereby he " got a fall," which oceasioned his being: ' sent to the infirmary for several days. '• To what base pur poses may we not return, Horatio P' Lord Brougham gave a grand dinner, on Sunday, to a dis tinguished circle, including Sir Robert Peel, Duke of Wel- , lington, Lord Ashburton, the Lord Chancellor, Earl of Jersey, Earl of Essex, Sir William Follett, Hon. Sydney Herbert, Col. North, Mr. Brougham, Commissioner Phil lips, &c. ANTICIPATION. —Mr. O'Connell, it appears, has an nounced the commencement of the erection of a building, which is to serve for the Irish houses of parliament, after the repeal !Of course there is to be a subscription —so that Mr. O'Connell is really not doing so foolish a thing as might be at first supposed. ARREST OF A 11,11IRDERE11.—STRANGE COINCIDENCE.— On the 7th instant. heed-constahle David Rankin, stationed at Dromore, near Omagh, in the counly of Tyrone, arrested a man passing through Dromore, on suspicion of being the man charged i n th e li ne and Cry with the murder ofJohn Dawson, at Ayr, in Scotland, in the month of November last. The person said his name was William Smith, tanner, from Dublin. He was fully committed to Omagh gaol, but was discharged on the lith instant, by order of Chief Justice Doherty. On leaving the prison, however, so strong was the head-constable's conviction that the man was the person described as the murder, that he again arrested him, and had him a second time committed. This was most fortunate for the ends of justice, as that very night a peace-officer arrived from Scotland, and out of thirty-four prisoners turned out in the gaol yard next morning, in the prison dress, the officer at once identified the man so strangely arrested, as the per son charged with the murder. His name is William Murphy, a native of the county of Kildare. We understand £lOO reward was offered for this man's apprehension.—Derry Standard. HYDROPROBIA.--Last week a terrier went mad in Rom ford, Essex, and {bit a man and nearly twenty dogs. The terrier then went away towards Havering-atte-Bower, and, having there entered Mr. Robinson's grounds, bit four of his dogs who were lying on the lawn. Two of these were of considerable value, one a magnificent setter of the late Duke of Gordon's breed : the other, a favourite retriever, both ac customed to live in the house. It is a remarkable circum stance, that the retriever, a powerful bitch, who if attacked by a strange dog was very fierce, yet when bitten severely by this terrier made no at: empt to retaliate, but uttered a most extraordinary howl, and slunk away to the shrubbery, from which place she could hardly be coaxed away, as if instinct told her that her hour was come. The terrier, after doing this mischief, curled himself up under a shrub and dozed, as dogs in this state do, after a paroxyism. One of the ser vants shot him, and Mr. Robinson's dogs, which were bitten, have since been all killed. If dogs, like terriers and the half-bred brutes that carmen teach to yap and snap on the top of their carts, become rabid, they are fearfully destruc tive ; whilst dogs whose instinct has been modified, and who have been taught neither to bark nor bite, (as setters) very rarely do much damage when mad. It is a strange doctrine of English law, that if (as happened recently) a man passing a cart in a narrow street is bitten on the ear by a dog on the . cart, the man can have no redress against the owner of the dog unless he can prove that the dog is accustomed to bite men. THE CHAPEL ROYAL—The ceremony of consecrating the new Chapel Royal, Buckingham palace, took place on Se turday, the Archbishop of Canterbury officiating. At twelve o'clock, the Queen, Prince Albert, and the Duchess of Kent, entered the royal closet. The pews in the side aisles of the chapel were filled by the lords and ladies in waiting. On her Majesty's arrival, the Archbishop accompanied by the Bishop of London, proceeded with the consecration. The chapel is erected on the site of one of the conservatories. The interior has a very light and elegant appearance ; the side aisles are divided from the centre by two rows of fluted composite columns supporting a pointed ceiling, divided into compart ments, and ornamented in stucco. It is lighted by windows at the sides, finished with architraves, and surmounted by pediments. The Queen's closet is elevated on Doric columns across the west end of the chapel ; the altar fronts the royal closet at the opposite end. The communion table had a cover ing of crimson velvet embroidered with cold ; the back of the altar, the seats, and the cushions were likewise of the same rich materials. The front of the Queen's closet, the pulpit, and the reading desk were also covered with crimson velvet, edged with bullion fringe, and bordered with gold lace. The royal closet is lighted by a number of small, circular-headed windows, and corresponding windows are also introduced at the other end of the chapel over the altar. The pews in the side aisles occupied by the Lords and Ladies of the House hold, and the seats in the middle aisle are covered with crim son. After the ceremony, the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Bishops of London and Norwich, and the clergy, and also the Ladies and Gentlemen of the Household present at the consecration, partook of a dejeuner at the palace. gOlpping fittelltartire.

In consequence of th e preva l ence o f strong east winds,. the supplies generally, both Coastwise and from Ireland, , have been in a very small degree increased since Friday ;' and 1071 qrs. of Wheat from Valparaiso constitutes the'only import of Foreign Grain since our report of Tuesday last. Having a tolerable number of local and.coUntry buve4's at this day's Market, and the stand reportal to have •be'o . 4 made in London yesterday creating a rather &trier feeling with less inclination to force business ; all deicriptions of - Wheat were held more steadily than heretofore, and at the rates of last week sales upon a moderate, but by no means on either a lively or extensive, scale were effected. States and Canadian Flour, attended with a very limited demand, receded 6d. per barrel; and English as well as Irish, barely sustained late prices. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease, continued to meet a slow gradual sale on the terms last quoted. The Oat trade exhibiting somewhat more stability, fully, supported former quotations ; and Oatmeal being in rather improved request, maintained the current rates of this day se'nnight.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 28 A very good and general enquiry for Cotton to-day,the sales are expected to be about 3,500 to 4,000 bales, which, for Tuesday, is considered a large business ; prices are firm, and the feeling of the,market healthy and bouyant. COTTON MARKET, MARC!! 30 Our market bids fair for another heavy weQk in Cotton. At the close of 'Change on Tuesday 7000 bales were sold ; on Wednesday 30,500, and to-day 6000, at the full prices of last week, though we may remark that a market with such an amount of business doing, Zmight have a little more elasticity about it. Speculators seem to operate very cautiously, and the bulk of the business is chiefly to consumers. LIVERPOOL HAY AND POTATOE MARKJT, MAitcH 30, 1843. . _ From the long continnance of adverse winds, the arrival of Po tatoes during the last seven days from all the usual shipping ports both in Scotland, Ireland, and Isle of Man, inclusive of Wales, (toes not exceed 600 tons; these, with our late heavy stocks, have now all gone into consumption, with the exception of about 2 to 30 tons of very inferior, for which the sellers are obtaining isd to Itid per gall). There is no alteration to notice in the value of Sweet! TUrnips. 18s to 20s per ton being the present selling price overnoard:r Our local markets have been moderately supplied during the past week with all descriptions of agricultural produce, at the un dermentioned currency.
