THE Vottrp. DOVE SONG BY SAMUEL LOVER " Coo ! Coo! Coo ! Coo ! Thus the song's returned again— Coo ! Coo ! Coo ! Through the shady glen ; But there I wandered lone and sad, While every bird around was glad Coo ! Coo ! Coo ! Thus so fondly murmured they, Coo ! Coo ! Coo ! While my love was away. And yet the song to lovers, Though sad, is sweet to hear, From the birds within the covers, In the spring -time of the year." —Handy Andy LITERARY NOTICES Fraser's Mayazine " Coo ! Coo Coo Coo ! Thus did I hear the turtle-dove. Coo ! Coo ! Coo ! Murmuring forth her love ; And as she flew from tree to tree, How melting seemed the notes to me— Coo ! Coo ! Coo ! So like the voice of lovers, 'Twas passing sweet to hear, The birds within the covers, In the spring-time of the year. The article on Affghanistan is continued from last month, at considerable length. Those who wish to understand the question of the " Affghan quarrel " fully, should study this and the other article which has appeared in Fraser. A paper entitled " Midway "we do not exactly see the drift of. It is a rambling contribution, dipping here and there, like a swallow in the water, into the great sea of literature. It is, how ever, pleasant reading enough. The " Life of Sir Murray Max well " is continued, and is extremely interesting in its details. Many breaks in the general history of this country, in its most stirring time of war, are here filled up. " Hoaxing Histories" details the miseries endured by " a fat old gen tleman in the Kent-road," in attempting to grow thin. It is not so good as some of its predecessors. " The Ashburton Treaty" might have been well excused : the public must be sick of what it never cared about. The y r enti " Children "is a graceful communication. "La Venere di Scampa doglis " is a good story : it is a happy poke at English fanciers of foreign pictures, " esteemed works by the old masters." We hope those who did not like our exposd of picture-dealing tricks will read this story, and " to supper with what appetite they may." " Peep of Day in Paris " is too short ; it is literally " little and good." Dickens' American Notes receives an unkind, ungenerous, and unjust criticism, tending to do the work itself no harm, and Fraser no good. Throughout there is a strong smell of political spice. The following exquisite poem, written, we believe, by Dr. Mackenzie, winds up the number : THE BIRTH-DAYS Since thou wert born, beloved one ! ten cheerful years have cast Their shadows into Time, and now—thy life is of the Past. And three—what dark and lonely ones !—their weary course have sped Since, early summoned back to God, thy place was with the Dead. The glance that spoke, the winning smile, the radiance of thy brow, And every sweet and thrilling tone—their memory haunts me now ; For beautiful as brief, alas! hath been thy stay on earth, And baffled Hope aye loves to muse upon the loved one's worth; Affection sadly lingers o'er its broken dream of bliss, And mourns thee yet, though thine is now a better home than this. Ten years ago !—how blithely stirr'd the spirit on that morn When thou, oh, child of many hopes ! to glad our hearts wert born. Was ever deeper welcome than those hearts accorded thee ? Was ever more resemblance than all eyes would fainly see ? Oh, fond ones were around thee ! and no dearer task than this To press thy lips to theirs and give the primal kiss. We counted first thy life by days, which grew to happy years, And ever when our hopes were dull'd, thy smiles dispersed our fears ; A solace wert thou, lovely one ! Above a grave of mine Methought thy tears would fall ; alas ! I now weep over thine. And when—oh! far beyond thy years—thy searching spirit sought In song and story the rich gem which lofty Genius brought, Oh! what a whirl of joy was ours to dream what time would bring— To think how bright thy summer whe❑ thus budding was _thy spring! Then, as the circling year's return thy birthday brought .., , Far distant were all auguries of sorrow or of pain. We saw thee bright, we knew thee dear, nor thought that there could be The mortal taint of ill or death in aught so fair as thee. That was a holyday of love the circling year brought back, In which we traced, beloved one 1 thy travel in life's track We kept that birthday joyfully, which now again we keep, With all the tenderness of love, and struggle not to weep ; We talk of thine endearing ways, and of thy gentle mirth, Which sunn'd our hearts, as if there were no sorrow on the earth. Many a heart-memoried word of thine, oft-named, again we trace, And.many a burst of joy, which breathed sweet music o'er thy face. If then our converse falter into silence still and deep— Grief'; hushed siie - nce—do not deem it is because we we Too strong for words, too deep for tears, the feelings that arise, When Faith doth whisper—Now thou hast thy birthday in the skies. If in that radiant spirit-land where, sinless one ! thou art, Thy mind can earthward turn, and read the thoughts that Air the heart, Then thou dost know, though strong our grief as human grief can be, We would not, if we could, renew Mortality for thee. Brief was thy pilgrimage below—too brief to feel its strife — Death to thy soul the birthday brought of an Eternal Life. Enfranchised one! whose place is with the Watchers round the Throne, It is for frail Humanity to mourn that thou art gone ; But Faith instructs us, whatsoe'er our crush'd affections, pain, Unkind or vain to wish for thee the chains of earth again. For, far beyond the world of care thy soul bath stretch'd its wing ; Thou sittest by Life's holy fount, and drinkest from its spring. A brighter bloom is on thy cheek than what on earth it wore, — A heavenlier lustre lights thine eyes than what they had of yore. A richer melody doth blend its music with thy voice, As it swells in praise before the throne,—and should we not rejoice ? Thou hast gone home, departed one !—chainless, thou art, and free ; We linger for that second birth which brings us unto thee, — Where, beautiful ! thine angel-plumes are folded on thy breast, And the cares of earth are ended, and the weary are at rest. R. S. M. Dublin University Magazine. November, 1842. Dublin William Curry, jun., and Co Always amusing and instructive are the contents of this periodical ; and the present number is not deficient in these characteristics to any of its predecessors Jack Hinton the Guardsman—but of him we have spoken in a previous publi cation. "An Hours' Talk about Isaac Walton," furnishes a very pleasant hour for the reader, provided such reader have a spark of taste and feeling about him, or has ever spent a day, voluntarily, in nature's solitudes, with rod in hand, and nature's gorgeous book spread out before his eyes. Honest Isaac ! The world, the reading world even, and least of all the dwellers in towns, know thee not, or, if perchance they have ever heard of thy name, they imagine it to belong to some horrible old man, whose enjoyment was the con templation of a worm impaled upon a hook, or a poor trout panting its last upon the green sod. How little they know of glorious Izaac Walton ! But what has all this to do with our notice of the Dublin University ? Proceed we to " Recollections of a Poetic Childhood"—and here we must confess our inability to sympathise, or comprehend, " Poetic Childhood." Poetic fiddlesticks ! But we must not quarrel with a name, for the verses themselves, are graceful and beautiful. "The Husband Lover" is commenced in this number, and promises to be a good tale, and what is better, to be concluded in another number. We abhor—begging the editor's pardon— these " continued" articles. They render magazine reading a perfect nuisance. But we must not quarrel with the " serials." No. IV. of the " Kishoge Papers" is like numbers 1., 11., and 111., most excellent. The conclusion of the review of " Alison's French Revolu tion," is written with great discrimination and judgment. Such a commentary ought to a ccompany such a history. " Letters from History , c andour compel s us t o con f ess , " we have not read, and we dare say, we shall not do so. Such gossiping memorials are not to our taste ; but th e " Memoir and Remains of Char les Wolfe" we can read. Of such a man we would gladly learn even the most trill ing Particulars. Handy Andy. By Samuel Lover, It is said that " night brings chickens home to roost." So it may be asserted that the close of the year brin gs ae rials" to their conclusions. Handy Andy is evidently i n this condition : though how in one number the artist-author will be able to tell out the love tale of Fred O'Connor and Fanny Dawson sufficiently at length to please those who delight in tales of love— " Love, that pleasant phrenzy of the mind"— . _ we cannot tell. But if any thing clever is to be done, Lover will do it. In the present number we find the professor or ori ginator of the Coldairian system again brought before us. The following laughable account of his proceedings is equal to any thing going; the words we have italicised top Olym pus in sublime-absurd. Moriarty, an old friend in the story, is famous for his " stretchers." Loftus is introduced to him as a colonel, who had seen everything, and been every where : As the party became more convivial, the mirth began to assume a broader form. Tom Durfy drew out Moriarty on the subject of his services, that the mock colonel might throw every new achievement into the shade; and this he did in the most barefaced manner, but mixing so much of probability with his audacious fiction, that those who were not up to the joke only supposed him to be a very great romancer; while those friends who were in Loftus's confidence exhibited a Scalded !" said his friends ; " burnt, you mean." " No, scalded ' • and how do you think ? The intensity of the heat had cracked the cocoa -nuts, and the builing milk inside dropped down and produced the fatal result. The same day a remarkable accident occurred at the battery—the French were Irvering round the island at the time, and the governor being a timid man, ordered the guns to be always kept loaded." " I never heard of such a thing in a battery in my life, sir," said Moriarty. " Nor I either,' said Loftus, " till then." " What was the governor's name, sir ?" inquired Mori arty, pursuing his train of doubt. " You must excuse me, captain, from naming him," said Loftus, with readiness, " after incautiously saying he was timid." " Hear, hear !" said all the friends. " But to pursue my story, sir ;—the guns were loaded, and with the intensity of the heat went off, one after another and quite riddled one lying in the h sty's frigates that wa t riddles to comprehend I " That's one of the most difia ever heard," said Moriarty.- " The frigate answered the riddle with her guns, sir, I promise you " What ! exelairaed:Aforiarty, " fire on the fort of he own king " There is an honest principle exists amongst sailors, sir, to return fire under all circumstances, wherever it comes from,—friend or foe. Fire, of which they know the value well, they wont take from anybody " And what was the consequence said Aloriarty " Sir, it was the most harmless broadside ever delivered from the ports of a British frigate; not a single house or human being was injured—th,d:day was so hot that every sentinel had sunk on the ground in utter exhaustion—the whole population were asleep; the only loss of life which occurred, was that of a blue macaw, which belonged to the commandant's daughter." " Where was the macaw, may I beg to know ?" said Moriarty, cross-questioning the colonel in the spirit of a counsel for the defence on a capital indictment. " In the drawing-room window, sir." " Then, surely the ball must have done some damage in the house ?" " Not the least, sir," said Loftus, sipping his wine. " Surely, colonel!" returned Moriarty, warming, " the ball could not have killed the macaw without injuring the house?" " My dear sir," said Tom, " I did not say the ball killed the macaw, I said the macaw was killed ; but that was in consequence of a splinter from an ipaulement of the south east angle of the fort which the shot struck, and glanced off harmlessly,—except for the casuality of the macaw," Moriarty returned a sort of grunt, which implied, that. though he could not further question, he did not believe. Under such circumstances, taking snuff is a great relief to a man ; and as it happened, Moriarty, in taking snuff, could gratify his nose and his vanity at the same time, for he sport ed a silver-gilt snuff-box which was presented to him in some extraordinary way, and bore a grand inscription. On this " piece of plate " being produced, of 'course it went round the table, and Moriarty could scarcely conceal the satisfaction► he felt as each person read the engiaven of his worth. When it had gone the circuit of the board, Tom Loftus put his hand into his pocket, and pulled out the butt end of a rifle, which is always furnished with a small box, cut out of the solid parr of the wood, and covered with a plate of brass, acting on a hinge. This box, intended to carry small implements for the use of the rifleman, to keep his piece in order, was filled with snuff, and Tom said, as he laid it down on the table, " This is my snuff-box, gentlemen ; not as handsome as my gallant friend's at the opposite side of the table, but extremely interesting to me. It was pre vious to one of our dashing affairs in Spain, that our riflemen were thrown out in front and on the flanks. The rifles were supported by the light companies of the regiments in advance, and it was in the latter duty I was engaged. We had to feel our way through a wood, and bad cleared it of the enemy, when, as we debouched from the wood on the opposite side, we were charged by an overwhelming force of Polish lancers and cuirassiers. Retreat was impossible—resistance almost hopeless. My lads,' said I, we must do something novel here, or we are lost—startle them by fresh practice—the bayonet will no longer avail you—club your muskets, and hit the horses over the nose, and they'll smell danger.' They took my advice ; of course we first delivered a withering vol ley, and then to it we went in flail fashion, thrashing away with the butt-ends of our muskets,—and sure enough the French were astonished, and driven back in amazement. So tremendous, sir, was the hitting on our side, that in many instances the butt-ends of the muskets, snapped off like tobacco pipes, and the field was quite strewn with them after the affair : I picked one of them up as:a little memento of the day, and have used it ever since as a snuff-box." Every one was amused by the outrageous romancing of the colonel but Moriarty, who looked rather disgusted, because be could not edge in a word of his own at all : he gave up the thing now in despair, for the colonel had it all his own way, like the bull in the china shop ;—the more startling the bouncers he told the more successful were his anecdotes, and he kept pouring them out with the most astounding rapidity ; and though all voted him the greatest liar they ever met, none suspected he was not a military man. Dick wanted Edward O'Connor, who sat beside him, to sing ; but Edward whispered, " For heaven's sake, don't stop the flow of the lava from that mighty irruption of lies—he's a perfect Vesuvius of mendacity.—You'll never meet his like again, so make the most of him while you have him. Pray, sir," said Edward to the colonel, " have you ever been in any of the cold climates. lam induced to ask you, from the very wonderful anecdotes you have told of the hot ones." " Bless you, sir, I know every corner about the north pole." - - - . - - "In which of the expeditions, may I ask, were you en gaged 1" inquired Moriarty..„, .... s ' - ` In none of them, sir. 'We knocked up a little amateur party, I and a few curious friends, and certainly we witnessed wonders. You talk here of a sharp wind ; but the wind is so sharp there, that it cut off our beards and whiskers. Bo reas is a great barber, sir, with his north pole for a sign. Then as for frost !—I could tell you such incredible things of its intensity ;—our butter, ,for instance, was as hard as a rock ; we were obliged to knock it off with a chisel and ham mer, like a mason at a piece of granite, and it was necessary to be careful of your eyes at breakfast, the splinters used to fly about so : indeed, one of the party did lose the use of his eye from a butter splinter. " But the oddest thing of all was to watch two men talking to each other: you could observe the words, as they came out of their mouths, suddenly frozen and dropping down in little pellets of ice at their feet, so that, after a long conver sation, you might see a man standing up to his knees in elo quence." _ _ . . . ' They all roared with laughter at this last touch of the mar vellous, but Loftus preserved his gravity. Seaman's Almanac. Published by Smith, South Castle-st. A very useful almanac, for 1843—(how the years fly on !) —has just made its appearance, published by Mr. Smith, of South Castle-street. From the preface we find that "The times and heights of high water are calculated by means of forrnulte and tables, which are deduced from 13,391 observations of the Tides at Liverpool, by the late Mr. Hutchinson, dock master. The same tables are employed i❑ the Admiralty-office, in the prediction of the tides for the ' Nautical Almanac,' and the Tide Tables for the English and Irish Ports.' In the calculations. 11h. 22m. is considered the establishment of the port, and that transit of the moon is employed which precedes the time of high water about 36 hours, or when the moon is 20 deg. past full or change, and the first or last quarters ; and a necessary correction has been made for the parallax and declination of the sun and moon. The most important feature in this Tide Table, distinguishing it from the other Liverpool tide predictions, is that in EVERY calculation a correction for the diurnal inequality in the height of High Water, or, the difference between the superior and inferior tides, is introduced as it is at Liverpool a quantity of considerable amount. The argument for this correction is the seventh transit of the moon preceding the time of high water. " The astronomical calculations are made in mean time, for the latitude of Liverpool, except the tables of the sun's declination, equation of time, and moon's southing, which are computed for the meridian of Greenwich, and to ensure correctness, they have been in most cases checked by sepa rate operations." There is an excellent chart of the entrance to the Mersey, and the contents are varied and of the most useful descrip tion of information. Tait's Edinburgh Magazine, November, 1842. • Edinburgh, William Tait. We should gladly at all times notice this periodical, be cause, however diametrically opposed to us in politics, its literary matter is always excellent. The present number is so ; and we say this, although noticing it for the last time. We cannot—and we make this declaration now for the benefit of other publishers, as well as Mr. Tait—we cannot in-future notice any serial publication which is not sent to us regularly. We have received of this periodical four numbers within nine months, which are of course valueless to us ; and, in a case where a publisher does not advertise with us, we cannot devote our columns to a review of his publications unless we have them sent to us in order as they come from the press. Bradshaw's Journal. Smith, Cleveland-square. This admirable periodical is good as usual, full of well written articles, bosh of an amusing and instructive character. The Irish papers we find continued, and are replete with in formation and character: an original story, or two, will in terest the reader. The poetry is far above the common order of things in general. The embellishments are also ex cellent. We can recommend Bradshaw's Journal to the notice of our readers : it certainly stands in the foremost rank of this class of periodicals. Susan Hopley. Part V. Tait, Edinburgh. This domestic tale is in the present number concluded. The moral of it is excellent, and shews that virtue in humble life will at all times be rewarded. The characters are power fully drawn, and the interest kept up to the end. What periodical paper has the greatest circulation ?—The income tax paper.—Punch. most capacious stomach for the marvellous, and backed up his lies with a ready credence. If Moriarty told some fear ful incident of a tiger hunt, the colonel capped it with some thing more wonderful, of slaughtering lions in a wholesale way, like rabbits. When Moriarty expatiated on the inten sity of tropical heat, the colonel would upset him with some thing more appalling. "Now, sir," said Loftus ; " let me ask you what is the greatest amount of heat you have ever experienced—l say experienced, not heard of—for that goes for nothing. I always speak from experience." _ _ _ _ " Well, sir !" said Moriarty, " I have known it to be so hot in India, that I have had a hole dug in the ground under my tent, and sat in it, and put a table standing over the hole, to try and guard me from the intolerable fervour of the eastern sun, and even then I was hot,—What do you say to that, colonel ?" asked Moriarty, triumphantly. " Have you ever been in the West Indies ?" inquired Loftus. " Never," said Moriarty, who once entrapped into this admission, was directly at " the colonel's" mercy,—and the colonel launched out fearlessly. " Then, my good sir, you know nothing of heat, I have seen in the West Indies an umbrella burned over a man's head." " Wonderful !" cried Loftus's backers. " 'Tis strange, sir," said Moriarty, " that we have never seen that mentioned by any writer." "Easily accounted for, sir," said Loftus.—" 'Tis so com mon a circumstance, that it ceases to be worthy of observa tion. An author writing of this country might as well re mark that apple-women are to be seen sitting at the corners of the streets.—That's nothing, sir, but there are two things of which I have personal knowledge, rather remarkable. One day of intense heat, (even for that climate,) I was on a visit at the plantation of a friend of mine, and it was out-o'- the-way scorching, that our lips were like cinders, and we were obliged to have black slaves pouring sangaree down our throats by gallons—l don't hesitate to say gallons—and we thought we could not have survived through the day ; but what could we think of our sufferings, when we heard that several negroes, who had gone to sleep under the shade of some cocoa-nut trees, had been scalded to death." SECOND EDITION. Standard-office, Three o' Clock -----.4•.- LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—THis DAY (From Messrs..?. MAKIN Sr SONS' Circular.) Still opposed by the prevalence of east winds, the arrivals collectively since this day week are very unimportant, except Oats, of which we have to note a moderate, and of Oatmeal a fair, quantity from Ireland ; that of other articles thence being comparatively light, and having very little of anything to report either coastwise or from abroad. These scanty acquirements by sea, and our home growers, during the present favourable season, being principally engaged in com pleting their autumn tillage, they have not yet began to thrash freely; the deliveries of new Wheat, consequently, are so far insufficient to meet the wants of the millers, or to produce any material impression on the trade. Under the foregoing circumstances, combined with some improvement in the country markets last week, and the rise in London yesterday, holders of Wheat here, at the opening of this day's market, required much higher prices than could be attained ; but subsequently, in order to meet the terms of the buyers, were induced to accept ld. over the currency of Friday, thereby making the advance upon most descrip tions of foreign 2d. to 3d., and in the value of good Irish new 3d. to 4d. per 70 lbs. from the rate:: of this day week, — at which a moderate amount of business was transacted. Irish Flour, continuing rather scarce, readily commanded the full advance, and foreign, though inirather less demand, supported the amendment of Friday. Barley and Malt were in limited request at our quotations annexed ; and Beans, as well as Pease, continued to move slowly at former prices.

There is no foundation whatever for the reports which have appeared in the newspapers relating to the Lord Chancellor's intention of resigning the Great Seal. The quantity of eggs used annually in France exceeds, says one of the Journals, 7,250,000,000, of which enormous num ber Paris absorbs 120,000,000. The Prussian navy, royal and commercial, amounted last summer to 790 vessels of 10,600 tons burden, and employing 6,800 sailors. Towards the year 1790 Prussia had 2,000 ves sels and 10,000 men. THE WETTENHALL MURDER.—We understand that Joe, alias Duke Baker, charged with wilful murder on the coro ner's inquisition, has hitherto evaded pursuit, notwithstand ing that a most unremitting search has been made for him. We understand that the statement which has gone the round of the papers as to a pension having been conferred upon the poet Wordsworth, is not strictly accurate. The yearly sum which Mr. Wordsworth will receive is a retiring allowance given to him upon resigning the office of distribu tor of stamps.—Brighton Gazette. THE LATE ATTEMPTED MURDER. — We are happy to understand that Alexander Duff, the unfortunate sufferer in the late diabolical deed, was so far recovered as to have been able to leave the cottage where he found shelter on the night in which an attempt was made to take his life, and walk a short distance to the railway on Friday last, on the way to his own home.—Dundee Warder. - - It was rumoured in Westminster-hall on Thursday morn ing, that in consequence of the appointment of several learned serjeants as commissioners under the New Bankruptcy Bill, Mr. Serjeant Merewether having been appointed town-clerk of the city of London, and the death of Mr. Serjeant Spankie, a number of learned counsel will be shortly elevated to the dignity of serjeants-at-law.—Standard. A YOUNG PREACHER.—The anniversary sermons in be half of the Primitive Methodist Sunday Schools, Oldham, were preached on Sunday last by a boy of 14 years of age, named Joel Hodson, of Lancaster. Such was the excite ment of the public to see and hear this juvenile prodigy that the congregation were admitted by tickets sold at Is. 6d. each.—Manchester Advertiser. WILSON, THE STEEPLE CLIMBER.—We have more than once referred to the fearless intrepidity of this individual in mounting and repairing steeples or the high stalks of public works, and to the tradesmanlike manner with which he finishes his perilous operations. He has of late been em ployed on some of the loftiest stalks in the city, and now de votes himself to stalk-climbing as a profession. The fellow thinks no more of climbing a height of 200 feet than of swal lowing his breakfast. —Glasgow Argus. FATAL PRIZE FIGHT.—A prize fight, which has been for a considerable period in contemplation, came off on Thursday last, between Luke Lock, a Brighton man, and Greenstreet, a pugilist well known in the ring. The site pitched upon was Washington Common, about twenty miles westward of Brighton. Intelligence reached Brighton in the evening after a contest of seventeen rounds, which occupied forty minutes, Lock came Dff victorious, having left his antagonist dead on the field. RAILWAY CAPABILITIES. —WHAT NEXT? —The tudinal bearings and cross sleepers, required for the Hull and Selby Railway, were kyanized in two large cylindrical wrought-iron tanks, each seventy feet long and six feet m diameter; and not being now required for the use of the company, they have been sold to an eminent railway con tractor, to be used for a similar purpose at Gloucester or Bridgewater : last week each tank was placed on two of the gix the S luggagewheels and on train to e F o r no i d p a a y n n y i ' g s ht goods they w a w g e g r o e n t s o , r e w a a c r h ae h d a v b i y n Birmingham, where they arrived in safety on Saturday after noon, at three o'clock ; the weight of the two tanks was about twenty-eight tons. This is a convincing proof, that goods, however bulky and heavy, may be forwarded by rail way without the least risk or inconvenience ; and the charges for carriage being very low, cheapness and, expedition are also combined.—Hull paper. AWFUL five o'cIock, CATASTROPHE n A old T L i l E a t — e d O n Tuesday after noon, building of thr ee d stories, s ituated between Tolbooth wynd an d the C oalhili, suddenly gave way, burying in its ruin s t we l ve i n di v id uals, of a whom three were got out unhurt, s i b others were more or less injured, and two were taken out dead. There was one st ill missing late at night. Th e h ouse was tenanted by a blind man o the name of Gardener as a lodging-house ; and at the time the accident happened, it was chiefly occupied by of a ship'screw, a part returned two days ago from London, per the Royal Adelaide, after a long cruise in pursuit of the fur trade. The names of surviving sufferers at present i n th e c asua l ty H ospital are, Alexandr Langscails, William Bryce, Hugh. Cormack, and Hunter Thomson. Drs. Patterson, Bryce,. and Jackson, were in immediate attendance upon the unfortunate sufferers. It is feared that some of those enumerated will not survive. —Glasgow Courier. BLOSSOMS IN NOVEMBER. — Those who are deeply studied in the mysteries of inanimate nature and meteorological science have given their opinions, from correct observations, we believe, that during the last 10 or 15 years there has been a visible mutation in our seasons and climate—namely, that the winters are not of such long duration, and the frost not so severe, whilst the springs are more early, and the sum mers generally are not so genial and warm, and the autumns less dry and seasonable for the purposes of agriculture. Probably there may be some ground for supposing that the observation is correct; for in the counties of Cumberland and Westmoreland, and i❑ other districts of the north of England, there are several apple and other trees which in this improbable month (November) are now in their second blossom. This account may seem somewhat incompatible with the statement of the state of the weather in the north we gave on the 29th ult., but our correspondent is prepared to testify that the above observations are founded in truth. MELANCHOLY CATASTROPHE AT RUFFORD.—it is our painful duty this week to record a melancholy event, which has brought two unfortunate creatures to an untimely grave. George Brooks, waggoner to the Right Hon. the Earl of Scarbrough, and Ann Brooks, his wife, resided in a cottage, near the mansion of - the noble earl, at Rufford ; and it ap pears, that, on Monday the 2lth ult. Ann Brooks had been whitewashing one of the bedrooms, up stairs, in which she and her husband usually slept; and, in order to dry it the sooner, she placed an iron pan in the room, into which she put some sticks, and set fire to them. This was during the course of the day. At night, when they went to bed, they took the warming pan up stairs to warm the bed ; and, it is supposed, either the woman or her husband incautiously re cruited the embers, and shutting the door close, went to bed. About four o'clock the next morning, Brooks not coming to look after his horses as usual, one of his fellow servants went and rapped at the door • and, supposing that would be sufficient to awoke him, he went away. Five o'clock arrived, but still Brooks did not make his appear ance ; on which his fellow-servant went again, and knowing there was a boy sleeping in an adjoining chamber, he rapped until the boy got up, and ordered him to go and see if any thing was the matter with George. The boy accordingly went, and opened the chamber door, and, entering the room, was almost suffocated with the smell of sulphur. On looking towards the bed, he was horror-struck to find Brooks partly on it, but with his face on the floor, surrounded by a pool of blood. He was quite dead and cold, and his wife also was also laid in bed beside him a cold and lifeless corpse. He immediately opened the door; and, the melancholy fact hav ing been more fully ascertained, medical assistance was im mediatly sent for, but it was altogether unavailing, for the vital spark had evidently been extinct for some hours. On the Wednesday following, an inquest was held before P. R. Faulkner, Esq. coroner, when the before-mentioned facts having been deposed to, the jury at once returned their ver dict that the parties had died from suffocation.—Doncaster Gazette. " If you are satisfied with the above assessment (and that under Schedule A) you need not take any trouble under the matter, as you will be called upon for the assessment in due course; but if, on the contrary, you have cause to appeal against the same, you must give ten days' notice, in writing, within fifteen days after the date hereof, to Mr. , sur veyor of taxes, at his office, " Name } Assessor." Address - VERY EXTRAORDINARY AND SINGULAR APPLI CATION-ROMANCE IN REALITY. At Henry-street Police-office, Dublin, on Saturday week, a person of very gentlemanly appearance and polite address presented himself before the bench, and stated that he wished to make an application to the magistrates under rather sin gular circumstances. The applicant was a most intelligent looking individual, and apparently between 50 and 60 years of age. Mr. Duffy.—What is the nature of your application ? Applicant.—My name is Hayden, the Rev. Henry Hay den, and I have iesided several years in - Nova Scotia. I returned to this country from Nova Scotia in the latter end of the year 1839, and went to reside with my family in the county of Down. I resided there with my family from Oc tober, 1839, till about May, 1840 ; and, having business at that time in town, I came with mywife and daughter to Dub lin, and resided with them in lodgings at 13, Upper Stephen street, for about a month. At the expiration of the month my wife and daughter proposed to return home, and they accordingly went to the coach office to take places. The next day they left me to proceed to the country. They did not go, however, but went to Dr. Harty, with whom they had a conversation relative to me, with the view of entrapping Me into a lunatic asylum. During the time I was absent in Ca nada, my wife received the interest of £lOOO by power of attorney, which I gave her ; the interest was, however, suffered to run in arrear, and having got into the hands of a person who had formerly been sheriff of the county of Down, a lawsuit was instituted for its recovery, and after three years' litigation my wife recovered about £l3O of the money, some of which, 1 believe, was expended on the education of my children. Having recovered the interest, and tasted some of its sweats, they imagined it would be a comfortable thing to get the principal into their hands; but I could not afford this, and having no means to support myself in Cana da, I was obliged to resort to my pen. I accordingly wrote works on astronomy, philosophy, the prophecies, and other subjects, which no other person but myself was capable of doing, and by this means I supported myself respectably for some years. At the time I resided in Dublin, I lost a watch, and shortly after my wife and daughter left me, some persons were sent to me, as they said trom Dr. Harty, under - the pretence that they had found the watch, but it was only to entrap me, as it afterwards appeared. Those men said they were police-officers, but on my questioning them they went away. Shortly after they came and brought me to a house in Dorset-street, where they said Dr. Hartywas, and that he wanted to speak on particular business with me. I went there accordingly, and saw Dr. Harty, who told me Major Brown was most anxious to see me. I asked who Major Brown was, and he said he was the chief of the Dublin police, and that my wife and daughter had been telling him that I was very extravagant in laying out my money on books, prints, and other things, and he (Major Brown) should see me on the subject. I told him (Dr. Harty) I had spent no money except my own—about £2o—and that no one had any right to interfere with me on the subject, nor would I suffer any man to question me about the money. Dr. Harty then in sisted on my going before Major Brown, and said that if I did not go quietly he would call in the police and take me by force, as my wife and daughter were waiting for me. Mr. Duffy.—Was that the first interview you had with Dr. Harty ? The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—lt was. I never saw him before that time. I asked him where Major Brown lived, and he said in the Lower Castle-yard, and that I had better go at once, and quietly, to prevent any unpleasantness. I stepped quietly into a covered car with Dr. Harty, and asked him " how long the business would last with Major Brown, what ever it was about?" He said, " Not long," and then told the carman to drive off. We went on for a short time ; but instead of going to the Castle-yard, I observed some trees and fields, and on looking out I at once perceived we were on the Circular-road. I told Dr. Harty he had made a mis take, when he replied, " Oh, no ; the major has a country seat about three miles from town, at Finglas, and it is there you are to see him : he is a very hospitable man, and will treat you well." I said, " I did not require any of his hos pieality, and when the business is over I will go home." We then went on, and on arriving-at a house the doctor got out, and walked very smartly for a man of his age up to the door, at which he knocked, and said, with a wink to the footman, " Here is a gentleman who has come on a visit to Major Brown." I was then thrust inside the door, out of which I never put my foot for seventeen months and one week. and during that. time I was treated most barbarously. Several lawyers and attorneys came to me, and before I could pro cure my liberty, they compelled me to sign deeds conveying all my property to Colonel Chester, my wife's brother. Mr. Duffy.—And was it Dr. Harty did all this‘to you—all you describe ? The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—lt was, sir. Mr. Studdart.—And what is the object of your present application? The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—My object is to have him bound over to keep the peace, for if he discovers that I am about to take law proceedings against him, he may entrap me into that house again, and it would be more than my life is worth to be confined there any more, for I was treated barbarously and cruelly while I was there. Mr. Duffy.—How were you treated ? The Rev:Mr. Hayden.—l could not tell you half of it, but it was most brutal treatment I received, for which I am resolved to have satisfaction. Mr. Studdart.—You can get a summons for Dr. Hartyt and when he is present you can make your charge agains him. The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—Can you not now bind him to the peace, for I am seriously afraid of my life ? Mr. Studdart.—From what has appeared. you have good grounds for a summons—at least sufficient has been shown to us to grant you one. You can tell this story when Dr. Harty will be present to make his defence to the charge. Mr. Duffy.—We feel bound to grant you a summons. and, in the meantime, an application can be made to Major Brown, to ascertain the fact if he authorised Dr. Harty to use his name on the occasion. Mr. Studdart.—Allow me to ask where you came from The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—From Kilkee, in the county of Down. Mr. Duffy.—Are you now apprehensive that you, being in Dublin, and Dr. Harty in the vicinity of it, that personal violence will be resorted to against you in consequence ? The Rev. Mr. ilayden.-1 am, most undoubtedly, sir. Mr. Studdart.—How long have you been in town ? The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—Since Friday, at two o'clock. Mr. Studdart.—bid anything happen to you since your arrival here ? The Rev. Mr. Hayden.—No; but I fear there will. I was treated most cruelly before. _ _ Mr. Studdart.—Very well, sir ; as I said before, you have grounds for a summons, and you shall have one. If you at tend here on Monday, at twelve o'clock, the whole matter will be investigated in presence of Dr. Harty. In the pre sent instance it is an ev parte statement, and it is right that the accused should hear it all, in order to meet the charge. The reverend gentleman thanked the bench, bowed respect fully, and retired. The investigation was resumed at twelve o'clock on Mon day, when, after a brief inquiry, the bench dismissed the complaint. Mr. Hayden announced his intention to have recourse to proceedings in another court. The writer, on making inquiry relative to the Rev. Mr. Hayden, obtained the following particulars respecting him : Ile is the son of a gentleman numed Hayden, who was for merly in partnership with a gentleman named Rivers. They kept one of the most extensive and flourishing establishments in Ireland at that period, and carried on business at Water ford, under the firm of Hayden, Rivers, and Co. The rev. gentleman was remarkable for his learning and research in literary and philosophical pursuits, and also for his exem plary life and conduct. He went some years ago to Canada on the mission ; but our informant lost sight of him at the time, and knew nothing whatever abut himself or his cir cumstances since that period, nor did lie ever see him since, till he made the above strange application at the police-court. ANNUAL BURNING OF CHILDREN.—The distressing ac cidents of this nature, which, for the most part, begin and end with the winter months, we perceive by the different journals have already commenced. It is calculated that more children perish annually in England by the excruciating death from fire, than the average of females formerly immolated in India by the horrid Suttee rite. The cause of the majority of the accidents is poverty, poor women being compelled to leave their children whilst they go and endeavour to earn the means to provide them with food. Again, the cheapness of flimsy cottons, which easily catch fire, causes them to be used as clothing by the poor, whilst the slight degree of warmth which they impart doub'es the danger by causing the shiver ing children to draw towards the flame. The Cornwall Gazette states, that when the dresses of the poor are com posed, as in South Wales, of a coarse woollen cloth manu factured in that vicinity, accidents by fire seldom occur. Though these woollen cloths are cheap, yet the greater cheap ness of the cotton fabric will, it is to be feared, cause the children of the very poor to be clad in the inflammable material, notwithstanding its known danger. We cannot, therefore, imagine a more beneficial channel through which the kindness and philanthropy of the ladies of Bristol and other cities might flow than in providing cheap clothing for poor children during the coming winter. We have many ex cellent local societies, but we are sure that an association of benevolent females for the special purpose of endeavouring to prevent the frightful annual destruction of children by fire would be attended with the happiest results. The imme diate benefit, too, arising to the poor children from more comfortable clothing, would of itself justify the formation of such a society—a society which, more than any other, would be likely to appeal to the sympathies and feelings of wives and mothers. It has ever been a complaint against ns, as a nation, that our charity d oes no t b eg i n a t h ome , but that we go abroad in search of objects of benevolence, to the neglect of those we encounter in our daily paths. We should not like to be considered nationally selfish, but there is some truth in the censure. If statistical accounts were published of the deaths of children by fire in India or Africa, duly gar nished with moving incidents by " eye-witnesses," and if it could, at the same time, be shown that such deaths were, in a great measure, preventable, we have no doubt that the ladies of England would never rest until they had formed so cieties, and auxiliary branch societies, in every city and vil lage, in order to avert such calamities. The children of our own poor, it ought to be borne in mind, in burning to death do not suffer less than little Indians and Hottentots, and are at least equally worthy objects of humane consideration. In cases where the deaths of children by fire occur in conse quence of the gross and wilful neglect of parents, the censures of juries cannot be too strong, nor, where opportunity is af forded, the punishment awarded by magistrates too severe.— Bristol Mercury.

Ditto, COTTON MARKET, NOVEIVIBR 7 We are enabled to report upon an increased demand for Cotton, with more activity and decidedly better feeling in the market. On Saturday 4000 bales were sold, and to-day the sales amount to 5000 bales, a few hundreds on speculation account. The market is well supplied, and though holders are very firm, buyers have more sa tisfaction in their purchases than of late. COTTON MARKET.- WEEKLY REPORT There has been a fair demand from the trade, but speculators have bought more sparingly; the market throughout the week has been rather heavy, and it is with difficufty that last week's prices can be obtained for the , lower qualities of American and Surat. Specularors have taken 3000 American and 700 Surat. There have been forwarded into the country unsold during the past month 140 American.

With all sorts of produce from Ireland, we continue to be very scantily furnished, except Oatmeal, of which a few thou sand sacks have come to hand, partly by steamers, and are literally without any fresh supplies coastwise, or from abroad, no grain vessels having been reported thence during the past three days, the direction of the wind, though light, being un favourable for arrivals. During the interval from Tuesday's market to the close of yesterday, Wheat and Flour continued to attract a moderate share of attention, but as in some cases rather higher terms were required, and a reluctance on the part of holders to press sales was apparent, the transactions in these or any other articles of the trade were not sufficiently important to pro mote any decided change in prices. Although we had scarcely an average number of country buyers at our Corn Exchange to-day, and not more than the usual attendance of local millers, the Wheat trade remained firm, and a moderately fair, but not a lively or extensive, business was done at an amendment of Id. to 2d. per 701bs. upon the generally improved rates of Tuesday ; the advance, however, was more particularly applicable to good Irish new Wheat, such being rather scarce, and to the low descriptions of foreign, of which some parcels, with a few of the better qualities, were taken as investments. - , ' English Irish, as well as States and Canadian Flour, which are becoming less plentiful, moved off rather more freely, each realising is per sack, and 6d to is per barrel over the rates last noted. Halting Barley, of which little remains unsold, would command full as high terms, and the best grinding samples were decidedly dearer. In Malt, Beans, and Pease, no change was perceptible. Oa s ts, beirig in short supply, were in moderate request, at the full rates of Tuesday ' • whilst Oatmeal, upo n a li m it e d demand, hardly sustained late prices. LIVERPOOL PRICES CURRENT.
