CAPTAIN PIDDING'S HOWQUA'S MIXTURE TEA is an admixture of 40 rareßlack Teas, produced On as many different plantations, each Tea differing from the rest, and possessing a flavour, a fragrance, or strength, Peculiar to itself. Blended together in the proper pro portions, they comprise all that is desirable in Tea. This discovery was not the effect of chance, but of many great advantages united in one individuaLand the result of For experiments and thp.Anost minute analysis. ror another to produ ce th e :mot result, he must possess equal skill, the same diaeriosylating taste, equal power of procuring the forty various , Teas required, and know the exact proportions of each Cod used—and though he may never once have visited China, he must have had equal opportunities of securing to himself, its productions : w ith one who, like Captain Pidding, has spent years there in acquiring these advantages, and to whom alone How.. =qua—years before his detch—imparted at Canton, the secret of compounding his Mixture. Yet there are upwards of 500 retailers pretending to sell tea, they call " Howqua's Mixture"—each mixture dif fering from all the others. Now as there can be but ONE REAL " H.,w q ua's Mixture," it follows that, as 500 dif ferent medleys are offered-499 must be spurious. The 499 counterfeits are so many evidences of the superiority of theONE GENUINE. And it would be absurd to suppose Vat Captain Pidding, with advantages, the result of Eight (lager; made to China, and five years spent in that ! inery, would be so silly—even were it possible—as to weld up to 500 others, or impart to them so valuable cret.

TAUNTON'S PATENT PURCHASE FOR WINDLASSES AND MACHINERY FOR RAISING WEIGHTS. UNDERSTANDING that there are pa r ti es officiously engaged ingoirig on board Vessels in which Taunton's Patent Purchase is applied to their Windlasses, and stat ing that the same is an infringement upon a Patent pos sessed by Mr. Pow, or by Tyzack and Co., and that actions will be brought against the owners of such vessels, the Patentee takes leave to inform his Friends and the Public that, though a verdict has been obtained against him at the late Assizes at Liverpool, upon a motion made for a new trial, a Rule was immediately granted, an the ground that the learned Judge misdirected the Jury. and the verdict being against the evidence. The Patentee is prepared to show, in proper time, by ; .the most conclusive evidence of a great nnoiber of im;chanics and others, who have had opportunities of proving his Patent, that he has invented a much superior mode for gaining power and raising weights than any yet discovered; that he does not infringe in any manner; and, also, that neither Mr. Pow norTyzack of a Co.th nd emed a have assum any right to o i a ri P g a h tc a t n a d t im alk ose bu d t have both t r o ea o t n pp u r m es b s e , r o b f y y v e e a x rs li , ti a o t u rd s also law a u r p e on no t w he c s o l m 'iP b7n w e l d wr tog s f o o t r h a er g who the t w ui r v i e te adopted his T p r a o u c t e i t e o d n i n gs, hopes th e that un d t o u s b e t e shipowners right o f his plan will consult their legal advisers as to the law of the case, (even provided he did infringe,) if any harm could apply to them, which he his assured will be answered to their satisfaction, and that it is not so. He also craves their assistance in putting a stop to such oppressive pro ceedings by shipowners declining to buy the articles sought to be sold at the expense of truth and honesty. He nas no fear but, upon inquiry into the relative merits of the different patents, his appeal to Englishmen for fair play will not be passed disregarded. Mr. TAUNTON offers to try the power and speed of his Patent Purchase against any other plan yet invented, so that the Public may have a fair opinion of the representa tions made by himself and the other patentees who are meking statements in the public papers.

NATIONAL CHARACTERS.—In a well-known house in London, the rendezvous of all foreigners, as well as En glish and Irish, a Frenchman thought to amuse the com pany at the expense of an intelligent and good-humoured Swiss. "Your countrymen " said be," serve under all European monarchs." "It is true," replied the Swiss; " we are goor, and we fight for that we stand the most in need of, money, or pay, call it as you will ; " but," said he to the Frenchman, "what do you fight for?" " Ho nour," exclaimed the impetuous Frenchman. ‘. well then," said the Swiss, " we both, it seems, fight for what we stand in need of most—we for money, you for honour. DIABOLICAL MURDERS IN FRANCE. — On the night of the 13th inst., the habitation of a widow, named Mercier, residing with her daughter, in the commune of Tayac, was discovered to be on fire. No cry was heard to alarm the neighbours, the glare of the fire being the first inti mation they had of what was passing. The remains of both bodies were afterwards found completely calcined, and amid the flesh of the d qighter the physicians found 29 grains of shot. It is supposed that these women were robbed and murdered, and that the premises were then set on fire to conceal the crime. Three men were per ceived going away when the fire was at its highest. REVOLUTIONS OF THE, CURRENCY.—The circulation of the Bank of England has four revolutions in a year, being at its highest point in those months in which the public dividends are paid. The country circulation re volves once in a year, being at its highest point in April, and its lowest in August. The circulation of Scotland revolves once in a year, being at its lowest point in March, and its highest in November. The circulation of Ireland also revolves once in a year, being at its lowest point in September, and• its highest in January. These changes are not capricious or accidental, but are determined by the recurrence of the seasons and the state of trade in their respective districts.--Foreign and Colonial Review. THE RECAL OF LORD ELLENBOROUGH.—The precise reat•ons for the recall of Lord Ellenborough by the Court of Directors of the East India Company were, on Satur day, the subject of much discussion in political circles. Nothing official has yet transpired to satisfy the public curiosity on this point ; but we understand that tile strong measure of the Directors proceeds, not so much from any objections to the general policy of Lord Ellenborough, as from considerat'ons of minor importance. It is said that the bearing of his Excellency towards the Court was not marked, in their opinion, by sufficient deference to their high authority; that he did not, in fact, accommodate himself enough to their wishes and expectations in mat ters partaking rather of the character of detail in bis go vernment than of general direction.—Observer. RATS IN THE HEBRlDES.—Generations have passed away without seeing a rat on the small island of Tarinsay, on the west coast of Harris. An innumeraele swarm of these annoying and destructive vermin has of late spread over the island, notwithstanding the efforts made by Mr. Macdonald, the tackman, to extirpate them. They ap pear to be increasing so fast that they threaten to overrun the whole island, and keep violent posession of it. They are supposed to have come from the island of Soay, which lies at the distance of about three miles from Tarinsay, and into which the Earl of Dunmore ordered rabbits to be sent. Soon after this, the rats, which were formerly very numerous in the island of Soay, completely disappeared, Having removed in a body to the neighbouring island of Trinsay, from which they are not inclined to make their departure in a hurry.—Scoichman. FRIGHTFUL MURDER AT ROUEN.—A heinous crime was committed in the night of Wednesday last, at Duclair, near Rouen. Three men made their way into the house of a butcher, named Pecot, and immediately killed him by blows with a hammer. They then beat his wife with the same instrument and severely wounded her, but pro mised to spare her life if she told them where they could find all the money in the house. They took all there was, 30f. ; but, disappointed at the smallness of the amount. they renewed tht it brutal violence upon Madame Pecot, and, as they believed. put an end to her life. They then set fire to the house, hoping thus to destroy the traces of their bloody deed. But Madame Pecot, though she had received ten desperate blows with the hammer on her head and breast, had only fainted. She revived before the flames reached her, and had just strength enough to drag herself out of the house. The light of the flames alirtned the neighbours, who came and carried her into safety. The house was totally destroyed, and the calcined body of the husband was found among its ashes. infor mation was immediately laid before the magistrates, and gendarmes were sent in search of the murderers. A NATIVE GENIUS.—One of the acquaintances of a New York Editor. whilst travelling in the " far west," was at a loss what course to steer, and rejoiced when a farm house presented itself before bin. Near the road was a tall, raw-honed, overgrown, lantern-jawed boy, probably 17 years of age, digging potatoes. The traveller drew up the rr igns of his horse, end said, " Hollo," my good friend, can you inform me how far it is to the next house?" Jonathan started up, and replied, " Hollo, yoursell!— how'd dew ?—wall, I guess I can. Taint near so far as it used to be afore they cut the woods away—then it was generally reckoned four mile, but now the sun shrivels up the road, and d‘in't make more'n tew. The fust tioue you come to, tho' is a barn, and tlie next is a hay sack ; but old Hoskins's is a beyant. be sure to meet his gals long afore you get there; 'tarsal romping critters, they plague our folks more'n little. His sheep get into our orchard. Dad sets the dog arter the sheep, and me arter the gals—and the way he makes the wool, and I the petticoats fly, is a sin to snakes " " Isee you are in clined to be facetious, young man—pray tell me how it happens that one of your legs is shorter than the other? " I never allows any o ie to meddle with my grass tanglers, tristur; but seein' it's you, I'll tell you. 1 was born so at my ticlar request, so that when I hold plough I can go with one leg in the furrow, and t'other on land, and not lop over." " Much obliged—good bye." VESTRIES BILL.—An apparently well devised measure has been brought into the House of Commons by Mr. Stafford O'Brien, M.P., and Mr. E. B. Denison, M.P., for the purpose of preventing in future the recurrence of those disgraceful scenes which are too often to be witnes sed in parish vestries, and which defile and desecrate the sacred edifices to which' they are attached. It is en titled, " A Bill to Prohibit the Holding of Vestries in Churches," and contains 13 clauses. After the close of the present year, 1844. no vestry or other meeting is to be held in the established churches or chapels of any parish whose population exceeds I,oo° souls, but power is given to appoint other places of meeting somewhat more fit to be turned into beargardens, than the buildings at. Cached to the house of God. By the 11th clause, it is dis tinctly enacted, that if any vestry or other meeting be held in either church or chapel, contrary to the pro.ne ons of this act, all proceedings at such meeting shall be absolutely null and void in law. The act is not to extend to Scotland, nor is it to affect or invalidate any ecclesiasti cal law of the united church of England and Ireland, or to destroy any of the rights or powers belonging to any bishop of any diocese, or to any archdeacon,chancellor official, &c. COUNTY TREASURERS.—Mr. Miles, the member for East Somersetsbire, has moved for a return of the ab stracts of the accounts of the several county treasurers in England and Wales, for the years ending Michaelmas, 1841, and Michaelmas, 1842. From this return, the pre paration of which must have occasioned some trouble, inasmuch as it forms a complete mass of figures, are• de rived the following particulars :—lt appears the 1. the gross total receipts of the various county treasurers during the year ended Michaelmas, 1841, amounted, in England, to £1,020,429, and in Wales, to £57,982, constituting a grand total, in England and Wales, of £1,078,412. The total receipts during the year ended Michaelmas, 1812, amounted, in England, to the sum of £1,083,974, and in Wales to £53,788, snaking altogether the sum total of £1,137,762. The gross total disbursements of the said county treasurers during the years 1840-41, amounted, in England, to £9n2,823, and in Wales, to .52,373, o.• alto gether to the sum of £955,197. The gross total disburse ments from the year 1841-42 (ending at Michaelmas in the a4-mentioned tear), amounted, in England, to £996,620, and in Wales. to £54,808, or altogether, £1,051,428. Thus the whole of the balances remaining in the hands of the various county treasurers of England and Wales amounted, in 1841, to £123,215, and in 1842, to £86,334 only.

The course, we glean, is very hard. A brilliant meeting is booked, as certain as " The Squire" sacking the gui neas yesterday. NEWMARKET FIRST SPRING MEETING, 1844. MONDAY, APRIL 22.

It is the m i rro r, in short, on which it is caught, which lends to the f ace o f nature the aspect of its own turbulence or tran quility. Dr. Caldwell, an American writer on physical education, contends that a well-balanced brain cantributes to long life, whilst a passionate and turbulent one tends much to abridgettheh anti, if persons knew how many dangers in life escaped by possessing mildness of temper, instead of opposite disposition, how eager would be the aim of all men to cultivate it. e t hen op p it THE PRODUCE OF LIGHT BY FRICTION.—This may be done by rubbing two pieces of loaf sugar together in the dark, but in a much greater degree by two pieces of silex Or quartz. By this means one may distinguish the time of night by a watch ; but what is more surprising, the effect is produced equally strong by rubbing the pieces of 'quartz together under water: A LUCID DEFINITION.—" A case of monomania," said Mike, reading aloud —" What's monomania ?" , Secretary.
