It is impossible not to remark the critical state of Eu rope at the present moment. The threatening indications may pass away, as similar appearances have before passed away ; but while they exist, it is our duty to notice them. Portugal is even in a more unquiet state than is com mon to her; and for twenty years insurrection has been coming and going like the seasons. Absolute rebellion, threatening the throne itself, was only suppressed, a short ,time since, by foreign intervention; and that affords but a poor guarantee for continued peace. Spain is evidently in the most wretched condition. Louis Philippe, for his own purposes, appears to have thrown the young Queen into the most dangerous and difficult of all imaginable positions. Married, almost by force, to a man she despises, surrounded by vicious and unprincipled persons, having her mother's example before her eyes,—she is at the same time watched by many who will eagerly take advantage of any false step. But even her abdication would not bring peace. The probable at tempt to place her sister, and the French Prince, her hus band, on the throne, would unquestionably raise up a Spa nish rival, and gather the nation around him. Hence how Spain is to be governed or kept in peace, much lon ger, it appears difficult to perceive. France, meanwhile, has been latterly disturbed in a new and peculiar manner. The King has successfully esta blished his own system, and rules, almost as an absolute sovereign, by the aid of corruption an d intri g ue. But a general demoralisation, the result of wide-spread infi delity and irreligion, is shewing itself in various ways and a new fear has recently sprung up, whether society itself will not shortly fall in pieces Austria, perceiving that France is likely to be embroiled in Spanish affairs, seizes her opportunity, as Russia did a few months back, and makes a forward step in Italy. Austria may be right in believing that France will be de barred from any hostile demonstration ; but Italy itself is ready for insurrection, the moment Austrian encroach ment reaches a certain point. And to have a Pope, a li beral and popular Pope, at the head of " Young Italy," will exhibit " the Roman, riding on the Beast," in the most striking point of view. Meanwhile, in the face of all this, we have the un precedented occurrence, in England, of a House of Com mons in which no one man, nor any set of men, can claim 250 out of the 658, as his own followers. There is a ma pray, neither for Lord John Russell, Sir R. Peel, no); Lord G.

AN ICE MOUNTAIN.—De Smet, an English mission ary, in writing to the Freeman's Journal, from Oregon, says, " Not far from the place of our encampment, we found a new object of surprise and admiration,—an im mense mountain of pure ice, 1500 feet high, enclosed. between two enormous rocks. So great is the transpa-. rency. of this beautiful ice, that we can easily distinguish objects in it to the depth of more than six feet. One would say by its appearance, that in s ome su dd en and,ex traordinary swell of the river, immense icebergs had been. forced between these rocks, and had piled themselves on one another, so as to form this magnificent glacier. From the base of this gigantic iceberg the river Trou takes its rise.—Mechanics' Magazine. NAPOLEON BONAPARTE.—His fate furnishes a remark able instance of the instability of human greatness,. and there is no doubt that his dislike to medicine remotely caused his early dissolution ; for rather than take some simple medicine, he allowed disease to gain the ascen dancy over his constitution, and death was the result. Thus it is that persons cannot be too . watchful of their state of health ; and being always provided with a safe and efficient medicine, such as grarapton's Pill of Health, enjoy the two great blessings of this world—health and long life. r al T y l 1 , e s h m o o w r s te a l i t a y; a d of u L ai on a d n o n n u , a l and indeed decrease, of whilst England .itls gn . gene rally, known the population increases considerably. The rates of premium for life insurance have been greatly reduced during the last few years, yet the offices continue as pros perous as formerly, These facts clearly demonstrate that soma cause, either unknown or unheeded, must have 'induced such favourable results. Amongst these causes, the increased knowledge of anatomy and the v ery many 1 valuable discoveries in medicine will stand most p rom i nent. 1 The small-pox, that annually carried off thousauds, has 1 been successfully combatted by vaccination ; and gout, that used to claim its numerous victims, has been, tho toughly Taucluitslled by Maw' a ant alkcl glieuuuttic rills', the most active agents in bringing about the present alarming condition of this useful root. ORMSKIRK AGRICULTURAL, HORTICULTURAL, AND FLORAL SOCIETY.—The second show of the season took place on Thursday, in the court-room of the Town-hall, and went off with great eclat. The attendance was great, and included all the elite of the town and neighbourhood. The two most attractive features were the floral devices, which were in excellent taste, and th e d a hli as , o f w hi c h there was a superb display. The vegetables and fruit were very fine ; the show of plants in pots rather meagre. Some fine specimens of foreign ornamental plants, from M r . Skirving's, (not for competition,) added much to the ex hibition. The dahlia sweepstakes was also a great addi tion. Our townsman, Mr. Musgrove, of Green-lane Nursery, carried off the first prize, for /8 bl ooms . Th e prizes were pretty widely distributed. A hand was sta tioned in the orchestra, and played during the whole day. SERENADE TO JENNY LIND.—On Tuesday evening twelve German gentlemen, being all members of the Liedertafel, resident in Manchester, gave Mad'lle Lind a serenade. They proceeded shortly after ten o'clock that night, and having stationed themselves in the garden of Rusholme.house, they sang some appropriate German part songs. It seems that Miss Lind wus not at home at the time, but returning while they were singing, she expressed herself much pleased with the attention of the young gen tlemen. Mr. Salis Schwabe invited them in, and they sang some more German part songs. Mad'lle Lind re ceived them very conhally, and, as may be imagined, greatly gratified them by taking her seat at the piano, and kinging weal airs, I'M 4 , 4lieve three of them German, twq • BIRKENHEAD DOCK COMMISSIONERS. - At the usual meeting, on Wednesday. Mr. Mallaby occupied the chair. An important proposition was received from the Birkenhead Railway Company, in a letter from E. P. Charlewood, dated 25th August. The company state their traffic is affected by the present high tonnage in the Birkenhead Docks, and propose, Ist, that the commis sioners reduce their rates to 6d. per ton on vessels from foreign parts, and to Id. on coasters ; 2nd, that if this be done, the company will pay the rates upon all ships dis charging there from Ist September, 1847, to Ist January, 1849, guaranteeing that such rates shall not be less than £2,000 for that time, and accounting for any additional sum ; the principle being to make these docks virtually free to ships (as they are now to cargoes) for the period stated. From a conversation, it appeared that the propo sition could not be fully entertained till the consent of the crown was obtained ; but a resolution was adopted to the effect that a special meeting should be held on the 16th instant to consider the desirable proposal, and for amending the rates, and taking steps to carry it into effect. On the motion of Mr, Potter, it was unanimously Mantelets have been made of crape, trimmed with lace, or with several ro ws o f narrow f r ill s p i n k ed ; some of tulles are trimmed with narrow velvet. One of the most fashion able manteaus is the Scandinave, with deep revers united by brandenbouughs of silk, and a kind of running wreath of braid on the material, whether of taffetas or batiste ecrue. The mantelet Fontange is trimmed with frills, and instead of collar has a fichu pelerine tying carelessly in front. Bonnets of crape, tulle, and lace, all the lightest materials, are still in demand ; pailles de riz, mixed with coloured blonds, have a very pretty effect. Some bonnets are ornamented with a fauchon of taffetas pinked, or of lace, which is in still better taste, particularly if mixed with velvet.. For straw bonnets they are very suitable, made of Inuit de soie, trimmed with lace or pinked rushes, or severN fas, Ming on the crown, with bavolet to match. F
