iLiteraturt. POETRY BY ELIZA COO :e Church of L D INDIAN gland Magazine and on the ti=er's track Like the Does the flush of my dark cheek waken his wrath Does he covet the bow at my back ? He has rivers and seas. where the billow and breeze Bear riches for him alone And the sons of the wood never plunge in the flood That the white man calls his own Then why should he covet the streams where none But the red-skin dares to swim ? 0, why should he wrong the hunter one Who never did harm to him ? The Father above thought fit to give To the white man corn and wine ; There are golden fields where he may live, But the forest wilds are mine. The eagle has its place of rest, The wild horse where to dwell, And the Spirit who gave the bird its nest Made me a home as well. Then, back I —go back from the red-skin's track, For the hunter's eye grows dim, To find that the white man wrongs the one 'Who never did harm to him. THE DYING BOY BY ANNA SAVAGE From the same Come nearer, mother ; raise the curtain high, And let us look upon the spangled sky. Leave still thine hand in mine. Put back the hair That clings around my brow : say, wilt thou wear One of these tangled curls when I am dead, Nor tears too bitter o'er the relic shed My Saviour calls me to a heavenly home, And angels near rae gently whisper. " Come !" While from their golden harps the echo rings, I hear the rushing of their shadowy wings. Listen, my mother; though thy voice be sweet Unto mine ear, the gladsome strains that greet Thy slumbering boy have tones of deg per love, Murm'ri,g about my couch. around, above, Like music in the air. When in the sea The red sun nightly sets, it seems to me That angels must be there, and track their way From the bright chambers of eternal day. Thou'lt think of me when thou dost look on high, In those blest mansions, far beyond the sky; Thou'lt think of me, I know, when earth seems fair, And summer blossoms scent the sunny air; 0, then remember that my lot will be Where flowers unfading bloom ; that I shall see Thousands of dazzling creatures that below Have walked in righ:eousness ; and th t I go Where, in the glist'ning robes around the throne, A halo bright reveals the Holy One! Mother, thy face is from me, but I feel The fast warm tears that o'er my week hand steal ; And thou dost tremble. If I ceaseless find Thy fond love, ever watchful, ever kind — If thy untiring care no change could see, Think what God's changeless love for us must be ; Though slumber o'er thy anxious heart may creep, There 's One whose eye of love will never sleep. Dark shadows o'er my eyelids steal along; Say, dost thou hear the angels' swelling song ? If thou couldst listen to their joyful hymn.— But, mother dearest, e'en thy form seems dim ; Thou wilt not leave me though the night is come ? Would thou couldst lead me to my radiant home ! Come nearer yet, and still my cold hand keep ; And 0, sweet mother, now 1 fain would sleep. HINTS FOR PEDESTRIANS, PRACTICAL AND MEDICAL (From an unpublished Manuscript, by a Physician of Liverpool.) BY MEDICIIS CONTINUED FROM OUR LAST, zenerally 35. It is a far greater comfort than will be credited, to have hoots and shoes nude fully an inch longer than the fbot ; and, moreover, with very broad toes, which will allow all the toes to expand with req uisi t e freedom and ease ; and to yield to the pressure of the whole body, producing consequent elongation of the foot. You can only justly appreciate the actual amount of this lengthening out of the foot, by standing on one leg, when you will be struck with the room that the foot really takes up most remarkably in the length of the shoe. Such is the true dimension of the foot, and which each foot really takes up every step of progression. In no other way will you obtain a correct estimate of this ; and, from neglect of this rule of testing the fit of boot or shoe, so many people pay the penalty of having taken only short mea sure, as by sitting down to try on a shoe, instead of standing deliberately on one foot at a time whilst fitting.

The Oxford' shoe, as it is called, lacing up the middle and over the instep, is the best of shoes, and has but one objection, viz., the frequent breaking of the lace or tape, or silk ribbon, which is worn for neatness to the sacrifice of strength ; and this is most apt to occur, when most annoying, on the swelling of the foot in hard con tinued exercise ; this unlucky trifling accident has often been a practical illustration of the importance of " little things," as they are termed, and has frequently reminded our companions in a ramble, of poor Richard's terse couplet— perspiration. 1 44.

We should say that two pair of easy, light-made buckle shoes, for bright weather, would be sufficient, with a pair of pumps, to put on in the evening. One of these latter will go snugly into a side pocket of your coat, with a sock turned inside out around it. CHAPTER IV ACCOUTREMENTS CONTINUED -CAP A PIED Coat, Pantaloons, Knapsack, Hat, Stick, and Gloves, 41. Most men are accustomed to wear a frock coat, and beyond all question it is the neatest and hest style of coat, and therefore, though we shall take occasion to sug gest another kind as presenting on the whole more advan tages for the traveller, yet we do not mean to say any thing against the frock coat as such. Colonel Shaw re commends it : " For a coat nothing is so good as a sur tout, made of the finest cloth ; it should button up close to the neck to avoid cold." This requires, however, from its limited accommodation in the pocket way, the use of a knapsack for stowing away your linen and gene ral travelling baggage in case you are going to exceed a couple or three days. What we are going to recom mend will carry three days change, &c., without encum bering you in your tour. We mean the adoption of a 42. Velveteen Shooting Jacket as being capitally suited for walking in—fine or wet, windy or frosty. There are many kinds of material now introduced, such as the plaids and similar manufactures, any of which will keep you warm enough in winter, or in summer as cool as can he accomplished consistently with anything like provision against showers of rain, and windy wea ther. The velveteen is the most durable for wear— there is no end in fact to such a jacket—the colour va ries—the lighter colours have the advantage of freedom from smell—which particularly when wet the black dye is always irremovably subject to. On the whole we are inclined to think the plaided jackets the best, all reasons considered. You don't get so soon chilled by wind or wet in this woollen as you do in the cotton (velveteen) mix ture. This remark of course does not apply to any such luxurious dress, as velvet itself which is silk, and no doubt unexceptionable save on the score of expense—to which some don't hesitate to go. It would be foreign to the direct object of this little t:eatise were we to digress into the various scientific reasons for every suggestion. Most of readers know that the fact of an article being a conductor or non-conductor of caloric and electricity regu lates the choice of its use in the variations of climate— the object being generally to keep in the animal heat by winter's clothing, and to keep out the heat which is ex ternal to the body in summer : the body neither relishing an external absence of heat, (cold) which deprives it too rapidly of its own by conducting away its caloric—nor an external presence of heat, which is so great as to equal, or ever so little exceed the temperature of its own blood —that heat being oppressive to people in general which approaches blood heat. Woollen garments fulfil the greatest number of these desiderata for the body's self defence. They do not chill the body, though they may Lecome moist—they retain air in their interstices, and do not condense moisture. _ _ 43. Waterproof dresses have called forth considerable I attention latterly, from the elaborate eulogies of various interested patentees, and their frequently-trumped up authentications as to their waterproof qualities. We do not mean to deny that such may be more or less the case, but we do assert that a great oversight has occurred on the part of bath patentees, experimenters and the public, regarding the point, or points rather, to be kept in view. It is just because these articles, as Indian rub ber, oil, silk, chemically-prepared cloth, &c., are ren dered impermeable that they are on this very account in jurious in their use to the health of the body. We must explain this, by going on to state, that the impermeabi lity to external wet is not at all required in a dress, but also a transpirability of insensible perspiration from within, which requires to be kept in view—both which conditions it will probably never be practicable to accom plish thoroughly, as the article must acquire the nature of a (safety) valve, permitting escape of vapour from within—refusing the entrance of water from without, any one has possession of such an inestimable coat, let him enjoy it; until he does get such, let him take our word for it, that mere waterpr - mfgarments are prejudi cial for any length of wear ; they may do for a short time, as during a passing shower, but not for a long walk in a settled rain—the perspiration freely generated, though in an insensible form in its nascent state, under strong exercise, is retained by the waterproof clothing, and being thereupon condensed, not only actually com- municates a chill to the body', from the water so con densed inside the waterproof•, but moreover presents a source of danger to the constitution, from the fact of this condensed perspiration being a real and energetic virus, the poisonous nature of which, in developing the worst types of fever, has long been known to the medical pro fession as so subtle an agent that, though refractory as yet to the tests of the chemist, it is yet so active as to be de- tected by our nervous system in the short space of a few• hours—whose precursory monitions of alarm at the self born foe most readers may have had more or less occasion to observe, in their own personal experience of headache, languor, faintness, &c. after a close-fastened waterproof coat or &oak—compared with the evil results of which a simple good wetting from the penetrating rain would be an evil almost to - be dignified with the name of good! We have, after all, digressed perhaps a little : but it may be of service to have given this explanation for those readers who have not access to other medical dis cussions of the subject. The remark has a general bear ing on the question of dress, and the reader can apply it in many ways if he will take the trouble. It is for this ' very reason that under garments especially should be changed frequently, and washed, even if a few days they may not appear sullied at all—viz, on account of retained THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. but pleasingly, described, so that this part of the work would form a useful guide to strangers visiting that splen - did metropolis, which has few or no equals in Europe, if we combine its architectural adornments, with the beau ties of its noble bay and its romantic environs. As a spe cimen of our authors powers, we extract the following passage, almost at random : " Carlisle Bridge, the most frequented passage between the northern and southern sides of the city, forms the limit of the navigation of the river,—vessels of consider able burthen being able to come close up to it at high water. The panorama of the river, and the city which encircles the spectator on this bridge, is unequalled in grandeur and beauty, by the noblest prospects which could be obtained from any single point in any other European city. I remember, several years ago, having been so struck with the splendid but solitary picture which presented itself to me while standing on Carlisle Bridge, soon after sunrise on a glorious summer morn ing, that I committed to paper at the time my impres sions of the scene. I have the pages containing them now before me, from which I shall extract so much as may be relevant to my present purpose. " Philosophers and writers have, according to their temperament or ca price, selected for themselves different places for medita tion. Some have chosen to bury themselves in the deep recesses of an ancient wood, where day's garish eye could scarcely penetrate the thick canopy of leaves which overshadowed them : some have delighted to fling their listless length' beside a babbling stream, lulled by the murmur of its gentle song : some have wandered, rapt in fancy's dream, in the delicious wilderness of a flower garden ; some have mused by the wave-beaten shore, and others in the deep seclusion of a cobwebbed library. But, for my part, I know of no situation more calculated to awaken feelings of deep awe, or to call up images of uni versal desolation, than the silent solitary streets of a great city viewed through the purplish haze of an early sum mer's morning. Almost every person living in Dublin has, at one time or another, experienced the solemn effect produced on the mind while standing on Carlisle Bridge at daybreak on a calm morning in June. How full of strange beauty is the scene !—all is hushed and still as death—not a sound disturbs nature's profound repose, save at intervals the shrill bark of a watch-dog from the decks of some of those numerous vessels lying below the bridge, whose taper masts shoot like a forest of leafless pines into the cloudless sky, which has already began to assume the lady Aurora's livery. Far as the eye can stretch on the other hand, the silent quays and bridges reflect their shadowy outlines in the still waters that sleep within their bosom ; or if a dimpling circle should break the mirror-like surface of the tide, it is but caused by the rapid wing of some hungry swallow pursuing his insect prey. Behind us lies Westmorland-street, termi nated by the ancient walls of Trinity College, and the noble Corinthian portico of the Bank of Ireland ; on the opposite side of the river, Sackville-street extends its full perspective of architectural beauty—uninterrupted, save by the memorial of the brave Nelson, whose pillar seems to have been dropped there in defiance of all the laws of good taste. Let us walk up this beautiful street—we are now opposite the Post-office, and who can say that the republic of letters is declining, when they look upon that magnificent pile ? But allons ! for while we remain here we are preventing the poor pigeons, who are fluttering about the cornices and pillars of the portico, from seeking for their early meal in the silent streets. Before us lies the Rotunda, where revelry so often holds its court, while meek-eyed charity' extends its hand to succour the chil dren of misery. Let us now turn round, and survey from this eminence the splendid scene which lies before us : the deserted streets, like the exhumated cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum, seem but as the monuments of de parted splendour. Where is now the dark line of moving forms that a few hours since thronged these footpaths ? where the waving plumes and the glittering equipages? where the merchant's busy face, and the proud beauty's conquering glance ? All fled ! there is no form of life— no vitality in the scene—and thus will the resistless scythe of time sweep these streets of palaces, and the antiquary of future ages will seek in vain for some relics of those noble works of art that we presumptuously hope may out live the great destroyer himself." The New Statistical Account of Scotland. Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh. We have received No. XLIV. of this excellent work, which contains the county of Linlithgow complete, and a further part of the county of Perth. Although the principal object is to supply an accurate account of the topography, natural and civil history, industry, parochial economy, antiquities, &c. of the respective parishes, there is (as we have before stated) a mass of interesting histori cal and descriptive matter occasionally introduced, which relieves the book from that dryness which pertains to mere statistics, however valuable, and renders it agreeable to the general reader. The articles are all written by men of talent and research, well acquainted with all the peculiarities which they describe, and who, moreover, have entered upon and accomplished their respective tasks con amore. It is impossible to do justice to a work so voluminous within the space that can be spared in a news paper, but as specimens of the style we submit the fol lowing extracts—the first relating to the ancient city of Linlithgow, the birth-place of the beautiful but unfortu nate Mary, Queen of Scots, and of several distinguished individuals, and also the scene of various meetings of the . Scottish Parliament, up to 1646 LINIATHGOW.—" Linlithgow is memorable as the place where the remarkable apparition warned James IV. against his expedition into England, which terminated in the fa'al field of Flodden. An aisle in the church, where the King was, as Pitscottie says, verrie sad and dollo rous, rnakand his prayers to God to send him guid suc cess in his voyage,' is shown as the place where the scene occurred. The probability is, that it was a device of the Queen, then in the neighbouring palace, abetted by some of the nobles, in order to dissuade James from an under taking to which she and many of the nobility were averse. The unfortunate issue of the war corresponding with the warning given, would, in that superstitious age, lead men to regard the agent in this device as a messenger from leaven. In the year 1526, the battle of Linlithgow Bridge was fought between the faction of the Earl of Angus, who had the possession of the person of James V., then a minor, and the party which sought to deliver the Prince from the influence of the Douglases. The conflict began on the haugh of Manuel, but the main conflict was close by the village of Linlithgow Bridge, which has given its name to the engagement. The Earl of Lennox, the chief of the party opposed to Angus, was, after being promised quarter, slain by Sir Jas. Hamilton. The place of his interment was long known as Lennox's Cairn. The Regent Murray was shot in the street of Linlithgow by Hamilton of Bothwellhaugh. The house from which the assassin took aim is still shown, though, from the removal of the old front, which projected con siderably further out on the street than the present, it must now present a very different appearance. Situated . in the most narrow part of the town, where the street is riot many feet wide, it presented a most favourable posi tion for the execution of the murder, as the Regent, on horseback, was compelled to advance slowly, owing to the multitude by which he was surrounded. Ham lion, it is said, had the walls of the room hung with black = cloth, to prevent his shadow being. seen ; and the tradi tion of the town is, that the neighbouring lane leading to 1 the back of the town, where his horse was stationed, was choked with bushes and other substances, to retard pin . - , suit." The part of the number descriptive of Perthshire is very interesting, particularly as relates to Scone, where many of the Scottish monarchs were crowned, and where they had a magnificent palace, now decayed. The account of the coronation, at that place, of Charles 11., is curious. The following will be read with interest, particularly as it refers, at the conclusion, to the recent visit to Scone of our gracious Queen : SCONE PALACE.—" The present' Palace of Scone,' as it is now generally called, was built about the beginning of the present century, having been begun in 1803 and finished 1808. The design was by the late William At kinson, of Grove-end, London, and the erection might cost about £60,000 or £lO,OOO. The ground on which the former house stood is occupied by this splendid man_ sion ; but in its imposing Gothic style of architecture, and magnificent halls and spacious apartments, the mo dern palace is incomparably superior. The late Earl o f Mansfield, the grand-nephew of the Chief Justice, spared no expense on this edifice. In most instances, the w a ll s of the former house were ent ir e ly taken down and re built. A new front, facing the river, Z4O feet in length, was an entire addition. The apartments were greatly enlarged, with the ex ception of the gallery, which is n ow 150 feet long, part of it having been taken off for an en. trance by a porch. It is a very elegant room. The floor is of tesselated oak, the dark having been found in the ieds of the Tay and the Earn. On the windows, partly )f stained glass, are represented the various coats of arm s of the family. The roof still retains somewhat of an an tique form. It is splendidly furnished, having at the upper end a large and richly-toned organ, and in different parts of the room several very valuable cabinets, lately purchased, of the age of Louis XIV. Among the orna ments are marble busts and vases of great beauty, both as to material and workmanship. Almost the only por tions of the old walls not taken down, but merely incased, are in that part of the house immediately under the di. ning-room and the drawing-room. The dining-room , music-room, and library, are elegant and spacious apart. ments, containing, in the midst of many modern orna• ments, some antique cabinets that had been in the former house. In these rooms there are several valuable paint ings, by Vandyke, Titian, Guido, Paul Veronese, Teniers, &c. There is a ' Dutch Burgomaster' by Rembrandt, and a portrait of Bassano by himself ; a Denial of St. Peter, and a' Judith and Holofernes,' by two old mas ters. There are some excellent portraits by Sir Peter Lely, exhibiting all the softness, beauty, and delicacy of his style. Among the family portraits are those of the first Earl of Mansfield, the second Earl, the late Earl, the Countess Dowager, &c. As a modern room , th e drawing-room is the finest. It commands one of the most magnificent views that can be found, from any point, of the richest parts of Perthshire, and its interior is fitted up with great elegance. " There seems to have been an intention to combine, with the splendour and comfort of the present age, so me remembrance of the simplicity of the past. The e n t rance, for example, has an air of antiquity, having an ancient knocker with the initials D. V. S. The door. way is sur mounted with the arms of Lord Mansfield in stone, and the motto, ' Uni cequus virtutif The house is partially urrounded by terrace walls, and bastions, one of which .ornmands a very extensive view. There are several large I.( es at a short distance, one of them an ash, said to have rated by James VI., and many ash and sycamore not 300 years of age. One is corm, only known been pla adually to to Scone Palace, the royal cortege entered by the terrace gate, and were received at the grand entrance by the Earl of Mansfield, the Countess Dowager, and the Ladies Murray. Apartments were fitted up with great elegance for her Majesty and Prince Albert. The Queen reached Scone Palace about seven o'clock, p.m., on Tuesday, September 6, 1842, and left early next day for Dunkeld and Taymouth. Among the various costly preparations made for her Majesty's reception may be mentioned two magnificent chairs, quite unique, procured from London, on which the Queen and Prince Albert sat at dinner. The carving and other rich ornaments of the royal bed, with the furniture and decorations of the private rooms prepared for her Majesty and the Prince, are of a beauti ful and magnificent description. Before the Queen's departure, the magistrates of Perth sent a deputation to the palace to solicit the honour of her Majesty's signature in the guildry books of Perth, where James VI. and Charles 11. had written their names ; the former thus : " 1601, Parcere subjectis, et debellare superbos.—James R." And the latter as follows : " Nemo me impune lacesset, July 24, 1650.—Charles R." Sir Robert Peel carried the book to the Queen, when her Majesty and Prince Albert recorded their names."

The continued fine weather, and still upward tendenc of the barometer, has given a tone of health and vigour to our Cotton Market. About 4,000 bales have been sold, chiefly to the trade, at very full prices ; and the market closes with great firmness. SELECTIONS SIR CHARLES NAPIER.—The following extract from "Division Orders" by Major• General Sir Charles J. Na pier, the commander of the British forces in Scinde, dated Sukkur, 21st November, 1812." evinces an eccentricity of style not without example in men of great military talents " Gentlemen, as well as beggars, may, if they like, ride to the devil when they get on horseback ; bur neither gen tlemen nor beggars have a right to send other people there, which will be the case if furious riding be allowed in camp or bazaar. The Major-General recalls the attention of all in camp to the order of Lieut.-Col. Wallace (dated the 18th ultimo), and begs to add that he has placed a detach ment of horse at Captain Pope's orders, who will arrest any oflender, and Captain Pope will inflict such a fine or other punishment as the bazaar regulations permit. " This order to be published through the cantonment by beat of drum for three successive days. Captain Pope is not empowered to let any one off punishment ; because, when orders have been repeatedly not obeyed, it is time to enforce them. Without obedience, an army becomes a mob, and a cantonment a bear-garden. The enforce ment of obedience is like physic—not agreeable, but at times very necessary." _ _ The Bombay Times, whence we borrow this morreau, ob serves that the passage, that " beggars and gentlemen have a right to ride to the devil," can be matched by the fa mous order of the late Sir Lionel Smith, prohibiting pariah dogs and galloping cadets from appearing on the Poonah parade-ground during divine service.—Asiatic Journal. ADDISON IN PARLIAMENT.-Addison sat for Maims bury in the house of commons which was elected in 1708. But the house of commons was not the field for him. The bashfulness of his nature made his wit and eloquence useless in debate. He once rose, but could not overcome his diffidence, and ever after remained silent. Nobody can think it strange that a great writer should fail as a speaker. But many probably will think it strange, that Addison's failure as a speaker should have no unfavourable effect on his success as a politician. In our time, a man of high rank and great fortune might, though speaking very ill, hold a considerable post. But it is inconceivable that a mere adventurer, a man who, when out of office, must live by his pen, should in a few years become suc cessively Under Secretary of State, Chief Secretary for Ireland, and Secretary of State, without some oratorical talent. Addison, without high birth, and with little pro perty, rose to a post which dukes, the heads of the great houses of Talbot, Russell, and Bentinck, have thought it an honour to fill. Without opening his lips in debate, he rose to a post, the highest that Chatham or Fox ever reached. And this he did before he had been nine years in parliament. We must look for the explanation of this seeming miracle to the peculiar circumstances in which that generation was placed. During the interval which elapsed between the time when the censorship of the press ceased, and the time when parliamentary proceedings began to be freely reported, literary talents were, to a public man, of much more importance, and oratorical talents of much less importance, than in our time. At present, the best way of giving rapid and wide publicity to a statement or an argument is to introduce that state ment or argument into a speech made in parliament. If a political tract were to appear superior to the conduct of the allies, or to the best numbers of the Freeholder, the circulation of such a tract would be languid indeed when compared with tne circulation of every remarkable word uttered in the deliberations of the legislature. A speech made in the house of commons at four in the morning, is on thirty thousand tables before ten. A speech made on the Monday is read on the Wednesday by multitudes in Antrim and Aberdeenshire. The orator, by the help of the short-hand writer, has, to a great extent, superseded the pamphleteer. It was not so in the reign of Anne. The best speech could then produce no effect except on those who heard it. It was only by means of the press that the opinion of the public without doors could be in fluenced ; and the opinion of the public without doors could not but be of the highest importance in a country governed by parliaments ; and, indeed, at that time governed by triennial parliaments, The pen was, there fore, a more formidable political engine than the tongue. Mr. Pitt and Mr. Fox contended only in parliament. But Walpole and Pultney, the Pitt and Fox of an earlier period, had not done half of what was necessary when they sat down amidst the acclamations of the house of commons. They had still to plead their cause before the country, and this they could do only by means of the press. Tl.eir works are now forgotten. But it is certain that there were in Grub-street few more assiduous scribblers of thoughts, letters, answers, remarks, than these two great chiefs of parties. Pultney, when leader of the op position, and possessed of X 30,000 a year, edited the Crafts man. Walpole though not a man of literary habits, was the author of at least ten pamphlets ; and retouched and corrected many more. These facts sufficiently show of bow great importance literary assistance then was to the contending parties. St. John was certainly in Anne's reign, the best tory speaker; Cowper was probably the best whig speaker. But it may well be doubted whether St. John did so much for the tories as Swift, and whether Cowper did so much for the whigs as Addison. When these things are duly considered, it will not be thought strange that Addison should have climbed higher in the state than any other Englishman has ever, by means merely of lite - rary talents - , been able to climb. Swift would, in all probability, have climbed as high, if he had not been encumbered by his cossack and his pudding sleeves. As far as the homage of the great went, Swift had as much of it as if he had been Lord Treasurer.— Edinburgh Review. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, Tins DAY (From Messrs. R. Makin Sr Sona' Circular.) Several further arrivals into this port since Friday, furnish collectively a fair supply of English, Irish, Cana dian and Foreign Wheat, for the season; including a tolerable quantity of Oats and Flour, with a liberal increase of Oatmeal from Ireland, and about 2000 qrs. of Malt coastwise. The weather has been favourable since the close of last week, and is very fine to-day ; which, combined with the present depression in the leading markets of this district, and the decline in London yesterday, appeared completely to unsettle the trade here this morning, and render the prices of most articles very irregular and variable. Wheat not only lost the advance of Friday, but fine qualities receded 2d., the general descriptions 3d., and in partial instances 4d. per 701 b. below the rates of this day se'nnight ; at which the transactions were extremely un important. Flour was also very difficult of sale, even at an abate ment of Is. to 2s. per sack for English and Irish, and 6d. to is. per barrel for duty paid foreign, from the currency of Tuesday last. Barley scarcely maintained the above improvement but Malt, upon a moderate demand, was ls. per qr dearer. Beans and Pease, with little business passing in either, remained stationary in value.

CAN THE REPEAL MOVEMENT BE STAYED?—IS Mr. O'Connell competent t i stand still? and if he be, is he willing ? We entertain serious doubts upon both heads. Mr. O'Connell has launched his boat upon a very strong current. He has hitherto managed it well, steering with remarkable adroitness round the rocks and shoals which would have long ago made shipwreck of a less dexterous pilot. But there are limits even to his skill at the helm. It seems to us impossible that he should stand where he does. If he make no ulterior move, his partisans will make it for him ; and the moment they begin to act of their own accord, either in advance or in retreat, there is an end to his influence over them. On the other hand, we greatly question his will to subside into the condition of an ordinary person. Neither the state of his finances, nor the conformation of his mind, would allow it ; and Mr. O'Connell is not what we take him for, if he resist the pressure of two such influences as these. The proba bility, therefore, is, that he will go on. He is already wielding the functions of a government in some of its most important details. He levies taxes, issues edicts, forms laws, and prevails on some millions of people to obey them. His next step will be—indeed, it has just been taken—to appoint tribunals before which the people may appear, and judges to administer justice among them ? Will this he permitted ? Perhaps it may ; and if so, we shall by and by see something still more curious. He has told us that there is no law to prevent three hun dred noblemen and gentlemen from meeting in Dublin, and discussing, at their leisure, plans for the general im provement of the country. He has hinted at the possi bility of their recommending to the people of Ireland a cessation of commercial intercourse with England ; and should such a recommendation actually appear, who can doubt that it will be attended to? What then ? There will be found in Dublin, as there were in Boston, indivi duals who prefer their own gain to the united wishes of their countrymen. A ship will arrive in the Liffey, freighted with English broadcloth. The parties to whom it is consigned will make ready their warehouses to secure the cargo; when suddenly, in the dead of night, the ship will be boarded, and the broadcloth cut to ribands. Now all this, if it occur at all, will occur so suddenly, that the power of preventing it will be wanting. There may be ten thousand troops in the garrison, and a couple of gun brigs close to the quays ; yet the Repealers will maaage matters with such dexterity, that neither soldier nor sailor shall know anything of their plan, till they find it anticipated. The morrow dawns, and it is discovered at the castle that an atrocious act of piracy was perpetrated over night. His excellency the lord-lieutenant is filled with indignation ; and a steam-boat being sent to sea, the government in Downing-street is informed of the occur rence. How are they to act ? Will they now at length establish martial law in Ireland ? Vs ill they issue a royal proclamation, send patrols abroad in all quarters, arrest the leaders of the Repeal movement, and otherwise bestir themselves? If they do not, we shall have more acts of piracy in abundance ; if they do, will they not be precisely where they would have been had these proclamations been issued while as yet the Dublin convention had not met, nor the organisation of its voluntary subjects been ren dered so complete as now we find it ?—Frazer's Maga zine for August. ADDISON AND LADY WARWICK.—It was probably in consideration of his political services that Addison re ceived the lucrative appointment of one of the Commis sioners for Trade and Colonies ; but the most interesting circumstance of his life, at this period, was his marriage, on the 2d of August, 1716, to the Dowager Countess of Warwick. The history of this alliance will probably never be clearly understood ; but, if we cannot produce all that is true concerning it, we are at least enabled to shew that much which has already been related is false. It is not surprising to find Tonson imitating the incom parable phraseology of the Ducal Squeers, already men tioned, and attributing to Addison a design of obtaining the countess from the moment be was " recommended into the family ;" but we do feel mortified when a man like Johnson substitutes supposition for fact, and disco vers in the behaviour of Sir Roger towards his disdainful widow a reflection of the conduct of the author himself. Tonson's insinuation is unconsciously refuted by Addi son's own correspondence. In 1708 we find him writing to the young Lord Warwick ; and three years after, in enumerating to Mr. Wortley the calamities which had overtaken him, he says, " I have within this twelvemonth lost a place of £2,000 per annum, an estate in the Indies of £14,000, and, what is worse than all the rest, my mis tress;" and why Addison should have looked with such a reverent and retreating humility towards Lady War wick, it seems by no means easy to comprehend. He was not altogether a man without mark. He had filled distinguished offices in the government, and was conspi cuously pointed out for higher duties still ; he was a mem ber of the British senate, he was celebrated for his intel lectual powers and his literary attainments, his reputation was unblemished ; into what society would Addison not have been welcomed ? what gate of exclusiveness would not his name have opened ? If it be said that the Coun tess of Warwick possessed great wealth, and that Addison sought her for the sake of her dowry, Miss Aikin has sup plied us from the MSS. in the British Museum with a sa tisfactory answer : " Tell Lady Henrietta," wrote Dr. Cheyne, to Lord Harley, at Wimpole, " that Lady War wick's marriage with Mr. Addison was upon terms, he settling (or giving) £4OOO, in lieu of an estate which she gave up for his sake." " But," says Johnson, "it is certain that Addison has left behind him no encourage ment for ambitious love." How is it certain? where are the proofs? Does Addison reveal, in any paper or writ ing which has descended to us, the misery which he en dured? But his contemporaries affirmed the fact. Did they ; so then the story of Addison's matrimonial infeli city rests upon that most dangerous of all foundations, uncontradicted report. Now we agree with Miss Aikin, that it must be shewn that this report, so decisively ad vanced, ever came to the knowledge of the parties con cerned; and, when that has been shewn, we are entitled to ask for further evidence as to the cause of their silence. They might have passed the report over from a sense of its veracity, or they might have despised it from a sense of its malignity and its falsehood. Is every uncontra dicted report to be converted into a witness? The late Dr. Southey formed an early resolution, which he kept, never to expose the injustice or the untruth of any criti cal report respecting his own productions ; are these cri tical reports now to be received as authentic illustrations of his genius ? Addison's marriage was dissolved by death, after the brief period of three years. Now, though we have no means of shewing in what manner that season was spent, we can, fortunately, throw some light upon its close; though we are unable to prove that Addison enter tained feelings of love and esteem towards his wife doting his life, we are able to shew that he loved and esteemed her in the closing days of his existence. In his will, dated only one month before his death, he bequeaths to her his entire property, real and personal, charged only with a legacy of £5OO to his sister, Mrs. Combs, and an annuity of £5O to his father's widow ; and he adds this most affecting and emphatic testimony of his respect and regard :—" And I do make and ordain my said dear wife executrix of this my last will, and I do appoint her to be guardian of my dear child, Charlotte Addison, until she shall attain her age of one-and-twenty, being well assured that she will take due care of her education and mainte nance, and provide for her in case she live to be married." Thus is Addison called, as it were, from the very shadows and silence of the grave to speak to the character of his wife. We hope to hear no more of domestic annoyances that embittered the life of a good and gifted man, or drove him to seek in a tavern th ose conso l at i ons and en joyments whichit was impossible for him to obtain at home.—Fraser's Magazine.

Mr. Buxton, in his interesting work on the African slave trade, states from good authority, that there are 150,000 slaves annually conveyed from Africa, of which 56,000 are brought into the single port of Rio de Janeiro. About 90,000, he says, are annually imported into Brazil.

HOW TO REFUSE A CHALLENGE.—Lord Galloway, the descendant of the Marquis de Ruvigni, whose bravery was never doubted, having once received a challenge, boldly refused it, saying, that whenever he drew his sword, it was for a more noble purpose, being in the defence of his king, his country, or his God ! In a back township of Upper Canada, a magistrate, who kept a tavern, sold liquor to people till they got drunk and fought in his house. He then issued a warrant, ap prehended them, and tried them on the spot ; and, besides fining them, made them treat each other to make up the quarrel.— Canada Temperance Advocate.
