We are indebted to the works of Miss Agnes Strickland and Mr. Jesse for the most interesting As our ri portions. Edward I e conqueror of \Vales and Scotland, was the first prince who was baptized in Westminster Abbey, after it was rebuilt by his father, Henry 111., who, in honour of the illustrious founder of that noble pile, bestowed the national and popular name of Edward on his heir—a name, above all others, endeared to the people by the remembrance of the mild virtues and paternal laws of Edward the Confessor. The christening of Edward 11. was solemnized after a ruder fashion, amidst the rocky fastnesses of the conquered but unsubmitting mountains of Wales, surrounded by the steel clad followers of his royal sire, and the wild chieftains of the land, who had unwittingly consented to receive for their prince a native of their own country, who should not be able to speak a word of English or French. They reluctantly imprinted the kiss of homage on the soft cheek of the infant Plantagenet, to whom the faithful Eleanora, the consort of the victorious Edward, had just given birth in the Eagle tower of Carnarvon Castle. MISCELLANEOUS The Conservative Club have purchased the site of the Thatched House, St. Jauies's-street, for the erection of a new club-house. A man named Jupp, who kept the Star, at Reigate, threw himself under the Brighton train, at Red Hill, on Monday, and was smashed to atoms. The cause of this determined suicide is not known DEATH OF LADY MURRAY —We regret to announce the death of Lady Louisa Murray, lady of - the Right Hon. Sir George Murray, master-general of the ordnance, which took place on Sunday morning, after a lengthened illness. LEIGH HUT.—The literary world will be sorry to hear that Mr. Leigh Hunt has been suffering under an illness of three months' duration, which has suspended the exercise of his pen. He is now, however, though very slowly, recovering. TFIE " GREAT BRITAIN."—The directors of the Great Western Steam-ship Company have christened their magni ficent steamer the Great Britain. It is expected that she will be floated out of the building-yard in April next.—Bristol Journal. The Earl of Morley, it is rumoured, is about to lead to the hymeneal altar Mrs. Coryton, relict of Mr. J. Coryton. The lady is sister of Mr. Montague Parker, the late member for South Devon, and:a distant cousin of the noble earl. NEW TAXES.—DUTY ON WHISKEY. — We have ascer tained, from competent authority, that it is the intention of the Chancellor of the Exchequer to propose an increase of the duty on spirits in Scotland and Ireland.—Dublin Mer cantile Advertiser. In a still more auspicious hour for England were cele brated the baptismal rites of his eldest son, the renowned Edward 111., who came like a dove of peace to heal the deadly quarrel between the insurgent barons of England and their angry sovereign, and to prove, for a blessed interval, the sweet bond of union between his estranged parents. This Prince was born at Windsor, on the 13th of Novem ber, and four days afterwards was baptized with great splen dour in the old chapel of St. Edward. The uncle of Queen Isabella and the rest of the French nobles who were at the court of his royal parents, were urgent with the King to allow his heir to be called Louis, but the English nobles, always averse to a foreign name, insisted that the princely boy should be baptized by none other than that of Edward. The cere mony was performed by the Cardinal Arnold, and the infant Prince had no less than seven godfathers, but there is not the name of one godmother recorded. A fourth royal heir of England of the same popular name, Edward the Black Prince, who afterwards even transcended his mighty father's fame, was born and christened in the sylvan bowers of Wcodstock, where Edward 111 and his youthful consort, Philippa, then resided in almost domestic retirement. No extraordinary splendour marked the bap tismal rights of this illustrious Prince, but it is recorded that his infant beauty and strength astonished every one who saw him, and that he was intrusted to no meaner nurse than his royal mother, the Queen of England, who nourished him at her own bosom. _ _ _ _ _ Richard 11, the unworthy son of Edward the Black Prince, was born and christened in a foreign land. Auguries of evil omen, touching his future destiny, were promulgated in the ante-chambers of his victorious grandsire, Edward 111, and among the ladies of honour to the Princess of Wales, his mother, even at that early period of his existence. In fact, there was a national disappointment in consequence of the death of his elder brother, a Prince of fair promise, who bore the more popular name of Edward, being the fifth royal heir of England, so called from that great monarch in whose per son an appellation so dear to national remembrance had been in a happy hour revived. The christening of Queen Elizabeth was the most splendid and elaborate in its details that was ever accorded to a Prin cess of England. " On the 7th day of September, being Sunday," says Hall, " the Queen was delivered of a fair lady, which day the Duke of Norfolk came home to the christening. Te Deum was sung, and great preparations were made for the christening." The mayor, the aldermen, and forty of the principal citi zens, were summoned to that solemnity, which took place on the following Wednesday. On which day the mayor, Sir Stephen Pocock, with the aldermen and council of the city of London, in their robes and chains, took barge after they had dined together at one o'clock, and so rowed to Green wich, where many lords, gentlemen, and knights, were as sembled. All the walls between the King's Palace and the Greyfriars were hung with arras, and all the way strewed with green rushes. The church was also hung with arras. The font was of silver, and raised three steps high. It was placed in the middle of the church, and covered with a fine cloth ; divers gentlemen, with aprons and towels about their necks, guarded the font, which stood under a square canopy of crimson satin, fringed with gold ; about it was a rail covered with red say. Between the chair and chancel, a closet with a fire had been prepared, lest the infant should take cold in been disrobed for the font. When all these things were ordered, the child was brought into the hall, and then every man set forward, First, the citi zens, two and two ; then gentlemen esquires, and chaplains ; after them the aldermen and the mayor alone ; then the King's Counsel and those of his chapel, in robes ; then the prelates and peers preceded by the Earl of Essex, who bore the covered gilt basins ; then the Marquis of Exeter, with the taper of virgin wax ; next the Marquis of Dorset, bearing the salt, followed by the Lady Mary of Norfolk, bearing the chrysom, which was very rich of pearls and gems. Last, under a stately canopy, which was supported by the Lord Rocheford, Lord Huse, and the Lords William Howard and Thomas Howard, her maternal kinsmen, cline the child, in the arms of her great grandmother, the Duchess Dowager of Norfolk, by whom this Royal scion of her house was proudly borne in a mantle of purple velvet, with a train of regal length, furred with ermine. On the right hand of the time-honoured Duchess and her Royal charge walked the Duke of Norfolk, with his Marshal's rod, and on the left the Duke of Suffolk. Before them went the officers of arms The Countess of Kent bore the train of the infant's mantle, assisted by the Earl of Wiltshire, the Queen's father on the right, and the Earl of Derby on the left, but nearer to the person of the princely babe than the Countess. A procession of noble ladies brought up the rear. The Bishop of London, with a procession of bishops and mitred abbots, received the infant at the church-door, and commenced the solemnisation of the sacramental rite ; and then, with all the ceremonies of the church of Rome, this great Protestant Queen received the name of Elizabeth at the baptismal font. Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, was her godfather, and the godmothers were the widowed Duchess of Norfolk and the Marchioness of Dorset. But of every ceremonial of the kind on record, the most striking scene, perhaps, was acted at the midnight christen ing of Edward VI., in the chapel of Hampton-court, when the future defender of the reformed religion was presented at the baptismal font by his sister and Catholic successor, the Princess Mary, whom his birth had just deprived of the im- mediate heritage of a throne. There, too, unconscious of the awful storm that had cloud ed her morn of life and reversed her own high prospects since the day when she had been proclaimed Princess of W4es and heiress of the realm, came the young motherless Elizabeth, who had been roused from the sweet slumbers of infant innocence and arrayed in robes of state, to perform the part that had been assigned to her in the pageant. In this procession, Elizabeth, borne in the arms of the aspiring Seymour, the brother of the Queen, with playful smiles, car ried the chrysom for the son of her for whose sake her mo ther's blood had been shed on the scaffold, and herself brand ed with the reproach of illegitimacy. And there the Earl of Wiltshire, the father of the murdered Anna Boleyn, made himself an object of contempt to every eye by assisting at this rite, at which he bore the taper of virgin wax, with a towel about his neck. The godfathers associated with the Princess Mary on this occasion were Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Duke of Norfolk, the first of whom it is well known she afterwards consigned to the stake. The font, of solid silver, was guarded by Sir John Russell, Sir Nicholas Carew, Sir Francis Brain, and Sir Anthony Brown, in aprons, with towels about their necks. The Marchioness of Exeter carried the child under a ca nopy, which was borne by the Duke of Suffolk, the Marquis of Exeter. the Earl of Arundel, and Lord William Howard. The Prince's nurse, Mistress Jackson, whom he ever called Mother Jack, followed with the Queen's domestics. " While his attendants were making the Prince ready in his traverse, Te Deum was sung ; the ceremonial was ar ranged for the Lord William Howard to give the towel first to the Lady Mary ; Lord Fitzwalter to bear the covered basins ; Lord Delawarr to uncover them. The Lord Stour ton to give the towels to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Duke of Norfolk." WRECK OF THE SHIP SOPHIA.—THIRTY LIVES LOST. —On Saturday accounts were received by the authorities at at Lloyd's of the wreck of the ship Sophia, of London, which unfortunately happened on the night of the 2nd. of October last, and attended with most lamentable loss of life. She was on her voyage from New Zealand to Kiapara, and had on board a rich cargo. It occurred about 12 o'clock at night during a tremendous gale of wind, off the Bay of Islands. The master, Capt. Harrison, and ten seamen, saved them selves by clinging to the rigging and portions of the wreck, but the remainder, consisting of 28 seamen and passengers, and two women, met with a watery grave. The vessel is said to have been worth £5,000 ; but whether she is insured or not is not known. On Saturday accounts were received respecting the loss of other ships— the Glengarry from St. Thomas's, and a brig unknown. The Glengarry was wreck ed on the 13th of December, on the Turk Islands ; and the unknown brig is supposed to have gone down off the Grave lines Lights, with the whole of the crew. Respecting the the latter vessel, her wreck was discovered by the crew of her Majesty's steamer Widgeon, who endeavoured to trace out her name, but were unable. Mr. AINSWORTH'S NEW MAGAZINE.—The starting of a new monthly publication,—especially one with such claims on the attention of all classes of readers as are possessed by AINSWORTH'S MISCELLANY,—is an event of no small itn portanct in the literary world. It has already occasioned more conversation, and excited keener expectation than has heretofore marked the birth of any similar work. And no wonder, when, independently of the fame of the Editor himself, the host of talent engaged in its pages is considered. In his story of "The Miser's Daughter," Mr. Ainswcrth has brought to bear, not alone his great power of imagination, but his varied and accurate knowledge of English lore, man ners, customs, and striking events. The period be has chosen for his romance of " The Miser's Daughter," is that of Hogarth,—a time more rife than any in character, stirring incident, curious costume, sturdy humour, and national pe culiarities. Then, more perhaps than at any other epoch, we were essentially English. This story is followed by a poem from the pen of one of the most distinguished of our female writers called " The Three Sisters," of which the stanzas would not discredit 'Wordsworth or Southey. Mr. Tupper,—a name unknown to periodical literature, but not unknown to the serious part of the community by that re markable production, " Proverbial Philosophy,"—has en riched the magazine by a contribution called " A Flight upon Flying," wherein humour, quaint fancy, and deep and amu sing erudition, are combined. We predict for the series of essays commenced by this gentleman a popularity as great as that obtained by the hitherto-unrivalled papers of Elia. . . " Uncle - Sam and the Editor," by the author of " Uncle Sam's Peculiarities," is written in a style of irresistibly laughable 'Yankee extravagance—the true vein for a merry winter fire-side. Mr. Francis Ainsworth, the traveller, and one of the officers in the Euphrates Expedition, has recorded his " Personal Recollections of Izzet Mehemet Pasha," the ruler of the destinies of the Ottoman Empire. in a manner so graphic and interesting as to spew himself worthy of the name he bears. This paper will be read with peculiar interest at the present moment. Next comes the renowned Major G. O'G. Gahagan, who has given us the Thousand-and. Second Arabian Night's Tale, under the name of " Sultan Stork," an exquisite burlesque, truly Oriental, and truly laughable at the same time. The dance of the female stork is an admirable piece of humour, and admirably illustrated by George Cruikshank. Miss Costello follows, with one of the most glowing, picturesque, and romantic legends that ever came, even trotn her pen, entitled "The Pic Du Capu cin ;" and the author of " Ferrers" has contributed a touch ing story of humble English life, called " The Snow Storm." To Captain Medwin, the friend and relative of the poet Shelley, the public , are indebted for a singular narrative, " My Moustache," founded on an incident which occurred to the writer at Genoa, when he was haunted at every turn by a Calderaio, or police agent, who eventually succeeded in driving him from the city. Then we have a eraceful little poem, entitled " Love and Time," worthy of Moore, by Laman Blanchard, charmingly illustrated by Cruikshank ; a very smart paper on the great event of the month—the Prince of Wale's Christening—by Mr. Dudley Costello, with two fanciful illustrations by Cruikshank ; and an admi rable review of Victor Hugo's new work.

His Majesty's sisters are the Empress of Russia and the Duchess Alexandrine of Mecklenburg Schwerin. The German papers mention that important reductions are about to take place in the Russian as well as in the Austrian armies ; and that 200,000 men, disbanded from the Austrian army, are to be employed as workmen on the great railway. The duty upon Foreign Barley is raised to Bs. 4d., on Oats to 16s. 9d., on Rye to Bs., on Beans to 16s. 9d., on Pease to 15s. 6d. per quarter ; remaining upon Foreign Wheat and Flour, and upon all sorts of produce from British colonies out of Europe, the same as last week. Since the 25th instant the supplies of Grain and Oatmeal into this port are upon the whole rather light, the arrival of nearly 14,000 barrels of States Flour forming the only pro minent feature in the imports beneath. During the interval between Tuesday and to-day, Wheat and Flour in bond and to arrive have excited some little in quiry, but without any actual business of moment having been done ; and for all free articles the trade up to this date has continued languid. . _ A poor woman, named Ball, living at Stubbington, while gone to Titchfield to procure provisions, fastened her three children in an upstairs room, as she usually did : the chil dren by some means set fire to a bag of hulls, and on her re turn she found all three dead.—Hampshire Standard. At a recent examination of some teetotallers at Cardiff, for disturbing the peace, by a concert in the street, in praise of teetotalism, one of them spoke of " two drunken characters who signed." " What," said the magistrate, " when they were drunk ?" " Oh, yes," was the answer, " it, is generally the best members who sign when they are drunk."—Carmar then Journal. Although in the face of a very limited number of buyers at our Corn-exchange this morning, and an exceedingly inactive trade for free Wheat of all descriptions, the holders firmly adhered to.the current rates of Tuesday, which, in the few sales effected, were• maintained. Flour was also taken off very sparingly, on the terms last notod. Barley, Malt, Beans, and Pease continued to rule ex tremely dull at late piices ; and Oats, as well as Oatmeal, participating in the same degree of languor with other ar ticles, barely supported our last quotations. ARRIVALS OF CORN, From the 251 M to the 27th January, 1842, hart lime COAST- It may be useful, as quieting the expectations of persons who are looking for letters in answer to those which the India November mail carried to that country, to state, that, by some bungle at the Bombay Pcstoftice, a box of letters, intended for that presidency and the north-western provinces of India, had been mis-sent to Ceylon.—Observer. SPREAD OF BIGAMY IN CALCUTTA.—Cases of bigamy are stated to be coming frequent at Calcutta, perhaps from an inclination to slide into oriental customs. A gentleman is under prosecution for marrying three wives; and a lady is in a like predicament for taking unto herself two husbands. They seem to think that, being in the East, they should do as the East does. THE PRINCE OF WALES. - It is not generally known that Court etiquette requires upon the birth of a Prince of Wales a state chair to be placed for his Royal Highness immediately on the right of the throne, and orders have therefore been given to provide chairs for this purpose, both at St. James's and the House of Lords, upon which the crest of the plume of feather, with the motto, " Ich dien," will be duly em. blazoned.— Court Journal. ENCKE'S COMET.—We learn, from a letter addressed by Professor Eneke to Mr. Airy,—a copy of which we have seen,—that the comet of short period, better known as Encke's comet, will come to perihelion on the 12th of April next ; and the learned professor, who has calculated an ephe meris for the occasion, proposes that it should be sent to the Cape of Good Hope, where, he says, the comet can be most favourably observed. CONSUMPTION OF SMOKE. — It appears that a saving of several thousand pounds a year—as much, we hear, as £5,000 or £6,000 —will accrue to the North Midland Railway Com pany, if the experiment now making to use coal instead of coke, in their steam-engine furnaces, by the application of Hall's smoke-consuming apparatus, should succeed. Of this there is the most confident expectation, from the experi ments that have already been made at Leeds within the last ten days.—Leeds Mercury. NEWPORT, ISLE OF WIGHT.—The Rev. Waldo Sibthorp preached his first Roman Catholic sermon on Sunday last, at the catholic chapel, Pyle-street, Newport, to a very crowded assemblage ; most of whom were drawn together out of curiosity, and in the hope of hearing him, from his new station, give some answer to the many inquiries as to why he had become a catholic. In this expectation, however, they were disappointed ; the rev. gentleman's discourse being confined to a dissertation on the miracles of our Saviour. A shepherd boy, only 15 years old, of St. Jean de Mar vejois, in the Gard. was a few days ago tending his sheep, when a wolf sprung suddenly into the middle of the flock, seized one and dispersed the rest. The youth threw a stone at the beast, and striking it on the head, stunned it for a moment. His dog seized the animal, and a conflict ensued, which probably would have ended in favour of the wolf, had not the courageous lad bestrode its back, and laid it lifeless under him by plunging a knife into its throat. We understand that the Admiralty have ordered the War spite, a 50-gun frigate, commanded by the Right Hon. Lord John Hay, to be fitted out for the_ purpose of conveying Lord Ashburton and his suite to the United States of Airier - - ica. The period fixed for his lordship's departure is not yet definitely settled, but he is expected to sail on his special mission in the course of a few days. The Warspite is com manded to be in readiness to sail at a few hours' notice. Lord Ashburton will embark at Portsmouth. TAPPING A SHEEP FORTHE DROPSY.—This singular, and we believe original operation, was performed a fortnight ago at Laxton, by Mr. Esam, butcher, of that village. A ewe sheep was almost dying from the effects of dropsy, when Mr. Esam suggested that he should like to by the effects of tap ping. His suggestion being approved of, he made an in cision in the side of the animal, into which he introduced a piece of elder as a tube, and drew from the sheep no less than eight gallons of water. It soon began to revive, and it is now apparently in perfect health.—Nottingham Mercury. DANIEL'S EXCHEQUER.—At thirteen minutes past ten this morning —we like to be precise as well as particular in matters of importance—at thirteen minutes past ten this morning, and not until after the high sheriff had given an in telligible hint as to the absolute necessity of the expenses of hustings, &c., being paid, previously to a second candidate being put in nomination, Mr. Smith, the agent of Mr. O'Connell at the last, and for Lord Morpeth, his nominee, at the present election, scraped together a sum of three hun dred pounds, which he paid down—giving a written under taking to pay up the balance. Mr. Gregory's committee handed the sheriff five hundred pounds on Friday, being the full sum claimed. SG much for the contrast of the respec tive treasuries.—Dublin Evening Mail. DESPERATE DEED.—On Wednesday last, a girl of thirteen years of age, belonging to Merryston, Coatbridge, named Martha Hodgkis, was sent by her mother on some particular errand to Drumpeller store, but, falling in with some of her companions, she accompanied them to Dundy van, and passed the greater part of the day there. In the evening she was returning homewards with the same girls who had com panioned with her during the day, but, struck with her mis conduct in neglecting her mother's errand and injunctions, she formed the desperate resolution of drowning herself. For this purpose she seated herself on the edge of the canal at a short distance from the Comet Inn, when her compan ions did everything in their power to divert her from her purpose, but to no effect, for so soon as they moved off to apprise her mother of her desperate resolution, little Martha clasped her hands above her head, and, with the exclamation of—" My mither 'ill ne'er see me again," she plunged into the canal, and ere assistance could be got the little desperado was a lifeless corpse, her body having been a considerable time in the water. DANGEROUS EFFECTS OF CHARCOAL.—The meeting of the board of guardians of the Bodminster Union was inter. rupted by an occurrence which, if not providentially dis covered in time, might have had a more melancholy, and, indeed, fatal issue. Business had been proceeded in for about two hours, when several of the gentlemen were affected with unusual sensations. One felt taint, and on expressing this to his neighbour, he replied that he himself had nearly fallen from his chair once or twice, and on the vice-chairman banding a paper to the chairman to sign, he pushed it back to turn, saying that he must sign it, for something had af fected his vision so that he really could not see to do it. Se • veral others then finding themselves affected with various symptoms the windows and doors were directed to be thrown open, when Mr. Nicholas Cottle, of Clevedon, became at tacked in a most strange and distressing manner ; he sprang from his seat, beat the air for breath, and uttered hideous and terrifying screams, evidently in a state of suffocation, when he was forced out of the room by those who were more . fortunate and less affected than himself. The cause of all this was ascertained to be the burning of charcoal in a stove in the room. People cannot be too cautious in the use of charcoal.—Bristol Mirror. COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, MONDAY.—(Sillings in Banco.)—TlLE QUEEN a. BERNARD CAVANAGH (THE FASTING MAN.—This defendant was brought up under the writ of habeas corpus, directed to the keeper of the gaol of Reading ; and the return of that officer, setting forth the commitment by the mayor, was read. The commitment stated a conviction under the vagrant act, and a sentence of three months' imprisonment. Lord Denman.—Has not the case been argued, and the commitment declared to be bad ? Mr. James (who appeared for Cavanagh) answered in the affirmative. Lord Denman.—Then let him be discharged. The Solicitor-general rose and was beginning to argue the question ; but Lord Denman interposing, said, that this court was not a court of appeal from the decisions of the learned judge by whom this case had been decided ; and the case, therefore, could not be reheard. H is lordship added, that the judges now in this court bad, in fact, been consulted before the decision on the commitment was pronounced. The defendant was then discharged ; and bowing very low to the judges, and thanking them very audibly, he withdrew from the court. There had been a great crowd collected in court to see him, the curious much preferringthiseconomical exhibi tion of the man to that at which money was to be paid for the sight. As soon as the order for Cavanagh's discharge had been pronounced, the crowd hastily and noisily began to dis perse ; and while the next case was going on, the ordinary occupants of the court were alone to be seen in it. THE ORIENTAL STEAMER.—The following is Captain Soy's account of the collision which we have already noticed as having taken place between the Oriental steamer and a French man-of-war. The Oriental's repairs were made good at Gibraltar, and she left for Malta and Alexandria on the 9th instant., the letter is addressed to the agent at Gibraltar : —" Oriental steam-ship, Gibraltar Bay, Bth January, 1842. Dear Sir,—l have to inform you that, after our leaving Gib raltar last night, when about eight or nine miles to the east ward of Europe Point, we came in contact with a large ship standing to the westward ; when first seen she was nearly two points on the larboard bow, and very close to us, not showing any light. I immediately ordered the helm to be put to port to go clear of her ; but she was going fast through the water, and struck us on the larboard paddle beam with her larboard bow, and ranged alongside, carrying away our projection beam, all the frame of the paddle-box, two boats, the maintopmast, and quarter gallery. Finding that we would come into collision I gave directions for the engines to be stopped, which was done instantly. On examining the paddle wheel we found we could not move the engines, as the whole of the frame of the paddle box was broken in, and jammed the wheel so that we were unable to follow the ship to render any assistance, but immediately lowered a boat, and the first officer went after her to ascertain what damage she had sustained, as she fired a gun and showed blue lights. After being away an hour he retained, and reported that he could not reach the ship, as she went fast away from him. We endeavoured, then, to unconnect the engines, and, after trying for upwards of two hours, found it impossible to get the crank pin out, and were then obliged to cut the paddle floats to allow the wheel to work clear of the broken frame. After examining the nature of the damage, I considered it necessary to return to this bay to repair the projection beam. I regret very much not being able to go to the assistance of the ship, but six hours elapsed from the time of the accident before we could move the engines, and 1 could not say what course she would take. I do consider that they must have seen our mast-head and bow lights ; and if they had shown a light we would have been able to go clear of her, but we did not observe her in time to enable us to get out of her way, as we give way to sailing vessels under all circumstances. — I am, dear sir, your obedient servant, John Soy, Commander." DESTRUCTION OF A COTTA GE BY FIRE.—AbOIIt one o'clock on Saturday morning, i nformation ~ was brought to the town's yard, that a house in the neighbourhood of Board man -street, Harpurhey, was on tire. Mr. Rose immediately proceeded with an engine and several firemen to the place ; but, when he arrived, he found that a small cottage had just been destroyed by fire. The cottage was occupied by a washerwoman, who, it appears, very narrowly escaped being burnt to death. She was slightly scorched on the hands and face, but not materially i njured.—Manchester Guardian. BEFORE I'D BE BURIED, I'D DIE FIRST.—" What do you say ?" said a woman one day to her neighbour, speaking of an old acquaintance, who from affluent circumstances was reduced to a state of abject poverty, so that she sought, with great earnestness, a refuge or asylum in what is generally called a workhouse ; here she found the comforts to which she had long been a total stranger ; however, from the se verity of the winter, together with an aged and shattered constitution, she at last sunk, and death seized her mortal frame. No friend, no relative, attended her mortal remain s to their last home ; she was indebted to the parish for he r grave. " What do you say—she was buried by the p ar ish oh, the mean contemptible wretch !" said her old acquaint ance ; " before I'd be buried by the parish, I'd die fir -t • that I would." SANDON.—The royal christening was celebrated here on Tuesday with every joyous feelings. The morning was ushered in by the ringing of the church bells ; a large ft g being hoisted on the church tower. Lord and Lady Sand( n and family, with the Rev. Edward Harland, visited the schools, when the rev. gentleman kindly presented each scholar with a book. After singing " God Save the Queen,' (in which the family joined,) and a loud and long cheer for the Prince of Wales, they were dismissed to join their parents, who were each presented on this occasion with a handsome piece of beef and a quantity of ale by their ever kind and venerable landlord, the Earl of Harrowby, whose valuable life may it please God long to preserve. The num. ber who partook of his lordship's liberality was upwarCa of three hundred. TRADE OF SOUTH A MPTON.—We understand that the busi ness of this port in the past year trebled that of any prece ding. The exports have increased in the same time five fold, and the number of passengers landed from foreign amounted to nearly 50 per day during the 365 days. There were 553 vessels inwards from foreign, and with cargoes outwards near ly 300. This year commences under auspices still more favourable ; for now we shall have a direct communication with-all the West India isiaos, New York, Halifax the, coast of South America,'the Isthmus of Panama, &c. once a fortnight ; besides twice a month to Alexandria, Suez, Cal cutta, Madras, and Ceylon. We are also gratified to find, that there is a corresponding augmentation of the coasting trade : hence Southampton ranks as a port of imp or t ance i n the commercial world, and the first in England for passenger traffic.—Hants Independent. DELAHUNT'S CONFESSION OF GUILT.—This unfortunate culprit on Saturday morning made a confession of his guilt to Mr. Allison the governor of Kilmainham prison. Mr. Allison had a conversation with Delahunt on Saturday mor ning, and having been cautioned not to make a disclosure he wished to do so voluntarily, he said he was desirous to tell the truth, and he did not wish to deny anything. With re gard to the crime of.which he had been convicted, he ackow ledged he had committed it. The only way in which he could account for it was, that he bad been for a month or more previous to the commission of it, instigated to murder some person or other, but he had no particular individual in view, nor was it to satisfy the least personal hostility that he was instigated to do so. He stated that the temptation came over his mind every night in bed, for at least a month before he murdered the boy Maguire, but up to that time he endeavoured to overcome it. On the morning of Monday. the day upon which the fatal deed was perpetrated, he felt an invincible determination to yield to the evil spirit which had governed him ; but although he did not then contemplate the destruction of any particular person, he said he thought a child would be his best victim, because it would give him the least resistence ; accordingly he took the knife from his brother's house on the Monday morning, for the purpose of of effectuating his object. He wandered about the streets during the entire of that day, until he met with the boy Ma guire, playing with other little children, in the neighbourhoo , of Plunket-street ; he had never seen nor known anything of him before, and his attention was attracted to him by obser ving him endeavouring to jump up on the end of a coal cart the boy was not able to get up on the cart, end he then called him away, under pretence that he wanted him to go of a mes sage for him, promising to give him something for it ; the boy inmediately went with him, and they roamed from thence together from street to street, as had been stated on the trial. He then took deceased to the stable-lane, and having held him by the forehead with his left hand, the boy's back being next to his (Delahunt's) person, lie held him tight, without letting him see the knife, or know what he was about to do, and while in that position he perpetrated the di eadful deed. As soon as he made the gash in the boys throat I e flung lin at once away, so that the blood flo , A ed entirely m on him ;elf. In that way Delahunt contrived to seape being marked with blood; but he positively denies having used the stone foutic in the boy's cap. The deceased did lilt see the knife, am could not have known what was abo' t ro be done to hi 11, tht deed was done so quickly. He did tof eam, or ma e ightest resistance, and immediately after Delahunt went away. SECOND EDITION. Standard-ojice, Eleven o'clock DUBLIN ELECTION.

The weekly sales are 20,150 bales, of which 1,200 have been taken for export, and 450 on specula tion.

THE LATE ROBERT PEEL, Esa.—This gentleman, wllo died on Wednesday week at his residence, Wallin 'ot]-hall. in Norfolk, was a first cousin of the Premier by bl . and his uncle by marriage. The deceased gentle In;:n had two daughters, one married to Mr. Ethelstone, of this town ; and the other to the son of the Dean of York, Dr. Cockburn. Mrs. Cockburn lately died, leaving two young children whom Mr. Peel adopted and undertook to bring up. This circum stance induced him to settle at Wallington, which has been recently furnished in the most substantial and costly man ner ; and where Mrs. Peel will now probably reside with her two grandchildren. Previously to the death of Mrs. Cock burn, Mr. Peel had no establishment, and lived much at Ex mouth, where it was fabled he died. The same fabnlous paragraph—which, however, was probably not without a de sign in every syllable of its fiction—greatly overrated the de ceased gentleman's wealth, which is not supposed to exceed £1,200,000; and committed the most important error of as serting that he died intestate. It is true that on the death of Mrs. Cockburn lie made a very important alteration in the disposition of his property ; but we feel quite assured that every proper step has been taken to secure the due execution of his intentions. We have heard that the following gentle men are named as his executors :—Edmund Howarth, Esq., jun., the Rev. Frederick Peel, and Joseph Peel, Esq.—Mitn- Mester Chronicle. o)lnpping intrlitguirr.

LONDON CORN EXCHANGE, JAN. 24. There was an increased quantity of English Wheat at market this morning, and several runs left over from Friday, making in the whole a fair supply, excepting for selected qualities of white, of which there was very little here ; prices have declined 2s per qr. The sale of foreign is very slat, and in some instances less money has been taken ; in bonded we did not hear of any business being transacted. Barley is an exceedingly dull sale, and last week's currency was barely supported. White Peas were Is dearer, but there was no alteration in maple and grey, and Beans remain as before quoted.

Our market though not lively is nevertheless steady, and con sumers purchased for their immediate wants, without gaining any concession in price. The quantity sold yesterday was 3,000 bales, and to-day 3,300 in all descriptions. BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, JAN. 26. This week we have again to report very little doing in the Corn trade. The Wheat which has changed hands realised former prices —say Ss Sd per 62 lbs for lower Baltic red. There is less malting Barley offering ; in grinding nothing doing. Only retail sales can he effected in Oats. We have scarcely any enquiry for Beans and Peas. The frost appears to have left us. DUBLIN CORN EXCHANGE, JAN. 25 We had a better supply of Wheat at market this day than usual, and prices for all descriptions were firmly maintained. Prime samples of Oats sold freely, but middling and inferior descriptions were totally neglected. Oatmeal freely commands our quotations. Bakers' Flour is without alteration either in demand or value — inferiors and thirds met a slight improvement. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JAN. 24 In our market of to-day there was a slight comparative increase (with those of Monday) in the numbers of Beasts offering; yet they were, the time of the year considered, by no means dumerous, but of very superior quality. The primest sorts commanded a steady sale, at fully Friday's quotations, but in other qualities ex ceedingly little was passing. From Scotland we received 90 Scots and 200 Sheep, per steamers. The supply of Sheep was moderately good, while the Mutton trade was slow, and the currencies noted on this day se'nnight were with difficulty supported. However, a fair clearance of the stock was effected. Very few of the Beasts or Sheep were suffering from the prevailing epidemic. Scarcely any Calves were on sale, yet the enquiry for them was slow, at barely late rates. Pigs sold freely on full as good terms as of late. By the quantities of Slbs, sinking the offal. J. C.

During the past week we have been alternately visited with severe frost, accompanied with heavy falls of snow, which yesterday dis appeared under the influence of a heavy gale of wind and rain, from the westward, which has prevented vessels from proceeding to sea, consequently the arrivals coastwise, or from the Isle of Man is limited. By this succession of foul weather, which has also prevented our local farmers from opening their pits, the demand for Potatoes overboard vessels, by our retail town dealers, has been unusually good for the season, coupled with an increased vend for tran shipment into the interior, and the best descriptions command id tioth advance over the current prices of this day week.

There is only a limited demand for Turnips, at prices nominally the same as my last quotations. . . . The present il,oisterCms weather has preveuted our neighbouring farmers from bringing supplies of produce forward, yet there is no alteration occured worthy of notice. _ s. d. s. d. s. d. s. d Potatoes, 9 lb.

From the Continent of Europe, we have to report a good supply of Wheat, with several parcels of Barley, Beaus and Pease— and from the United States, 17,714 barrels of Flour. In consequence of to-day being observed as a holiday at the Custom-house, and the general business of the town being partially suspended, the transactions in Wheat were only to a moderate extent this morning ; and with rather less firm ness than at the close of the week ; secondary and inferior descriptions were the turn lower : prime qualities, notwith standing, were scarcely affected in value, and for such we therefore repeat the current rates of this day se'nnight.—lti foreign Wheat, either in bond or afloat, no recent sales have been reported. English and Irish Flour continued to move off slowly at late prices ; and Foreign duty paid was rather depressed in value, a few parcels Of Canadian having been sold at 345. States Flour under lock was also offered at a decline of Is. per barrel. In Barley, Malt, Beans and Pease, very little business was apparent, and former prices scarcely maintained. Oats, with a better supply of good samples, but no im proved demand, obtained the rates of Tuesday last. Oat meal, although by no means in lively request, was ratheJ more saleable to consumers, on the terms of last week. PRICES OF TIMBER AT LIVERPOOL *Woos, Deals, lio stand. m. duty paid i Duty.
