As bearing on the general question of improve- went, he ascribes the inefficiency of some portion of our mer chant ships, commanders, and officers, to the changed cir- cumstances of the times. Formerly our shipping (with the ex cention of East Indiamen) was more fitted for the transport, Baltic, and coasting trades, " and vessels and commanders suited for such trades, have, from the increased demand for tonnage, since the abolition of the Company's ships, and the opening of the China trade, been brought into a service foreign to their capability." The remark, he conceives, equally applies to our colonial-built ships, which have been brought into requisition by the forced demand for tonnage, during the joint-stock bank mania and open credit system ; but the evil, be considers, is rapidly curing itself, without the mischievous interference of the legislature (proposed by Csptain Fitzroy); and he looks for its final extinction to the " great change going on the mercantile world" owing to the diffusion of the existing knowledge amongst the mass of man kind, which was formerly out of the reach of the humbler classes. " Now," he remarks, " competition for profit and distinction is springing up on all sides ; and when we find old establishments are adapting themselves to the spirit of the age, it is only fair to infer that our ship-builders and ship-owners will be keenly alive to their own interests, and make the prospective improvement of our merchant ships, and the condition of the commanders and officers, their grand Our author introduces the subject of roasting and sparring, by stating that " a very erroneous impression exists in the minds of many mere practical men, that, in proportion to the tautness of the masts, and the squareness of the yards and sails, so would the sailing of the ship be increased or di- The falacy of this theory has been practically de monstrated in many instances on record, of ships, very squarely rigged, having sailed muck faster when reduced to jury masts and spars." This, he adds, is scientifically ac counted for ; and he quotes a passage in illustration from Dr. Arnott's interesting work on the " Elements of Physics," in which he shows that the same force is required to give or take away, or to bend a motion, in a fluid, as in an equal quantity of solid matter, and that it is a mistake to suppose that if a body moving through a fluid at a given rate meets a given resistance, it just meets double resistance when moving twice as fast. The resistance is, in fact, four times greater with a double rate. " A boat which moves one inch an hour displaces a certain quantity of water, and with a certain velo t, of course, displaces twice as id requires to be moved minished if it move twice as fast, many particles in the some time force on that account ; but it also displaces every particle with a double velocity, and receives another doubling of the power on this account ; the power being thus doubled on two accounts, becomes a power of four." In the same manner, wi resistance, speed of three, a force of nine is required to overcome the and so on with other proportions, with twice tr as thus— 8 9 10 25 36 49 64 SI 100 EATH 0 G. Y. T OF MR.

CONCERNING SLOW FELLOWS (From the " World of London," in Blackwood's Magazine.) The Slow School of fashionable or aristocratic life, com prises those who think that, in the nineteenth century, other means must be taken to preserve their order in its high and responsible position than those which, in dark ages, conferred honour on the tallest or the bravest. They think, and think wisely, that the only method of keeping above the masses, in this active-minded age, is by soaring higher and further into the boundless realms of intellect; or at the least forget ting, in a fair neck-and - neck race with men of meaner birth. their purer blood, and urging the generous contest for fame, regardless of the allurements of pleasure, or the superior ad vantages of fortune. In truth, we may ask, what would be• come of our aristocratic classes ere long, if they came, as a body, to be identified with their gambling lords, their black leg baronets, their insolvent honourables, and the seedy set of Chevaliers Diddlerowski and Counts Scaramonchi, who caper on the platform outside for their living ? The populace would pelt these harlequin horse jockeys of fashiontble life off their stage, if there was nothing better to be seen anside ; but it fortunately happens that there is better. We can boast among our nobles and aristocratic families, a few men of original, commanding, and powerful intellect; many respectable in most departments of intellectual rivalry ; many more laborious, hard-working men; and about the same proportion of dull, stupid, fat-headed, crabbed, con ceited, ignorant, insolent men, that you may find among the „e pnmmonlv called the educated _.Hoer ot LIJUSC CM. tliv"sy We refer you to the aristocracies of other coun tries, and we think we may safely say, that we have more men of that class, in this country, who devote themselves to - high duties of their station, regardless of its call pleasures, nractiy the re- same g 'ecognise than in any oLo., , ---- • sponsibilities of their rank, and do not shirk from them ; men who think they have something to do, and something to repay, for the accidents of birth and fortune—who, in the senate, the field, or in the less prominent, hut not less noble, career of private life, act, as they feel, with the poet : " At heros, et decus, et core non fecimus ipsi, Vix ex nostra voco It has been admirably remarked, by some one whose name we forget, that the grand advantage of high birth is, placing a man as far forward at twenty-five as another man is at fifty. We might, as a carollary to this undeniable proposition, add, that birth not only places, but keeps a man in that advance of his fellows, which, in the sum of life, makes such vast ultimate difference in the prominence of their position. The advantage enjoyed by the aristocracy of birth, of early enrolling themselves among the aristocracy of power, has, like everything in the natural and moral world, its compen sating disadvantage. They lose in one way what they gain in another ; and although many of them become eminent in public life, few, very few, comparatively with the numbers who enter the arena, become great. They are respected, heard, and admired, by virtue of a class-prepossession in their favour ; yet, after all, they must select from the ranks of the aristocracy of talent their firmest and best supporters, to whom they may delegate the heavy responsibilities of busi ness, and lift from their own shoulders the burden of respon- sible power. One striking example of the force of birth, station, and as sociation in public life, never fails to occur to us as an extra ordinary examplelof the magnifying power of these extrinsic qualities, in giving to the aristocracy of birth a consideration which, though often well bestowed, is yet oftener bestowed without any desert whatever ; and that title to admiration and respect, which has died with ancestry, patriotism, and suffering in the cause of freedom, is transferred from the illustrious dead to the undistinguished living. Without giving a catalogue raisonee of the slow fellows, (we use the term not disrespectfully, but only in contradis tinction to the others,) we may observe that, besides the public service in which the great names are sufficiently known, you have poets, essayists, dramatists, astronomers, geolo gists, travellers, novelists, and, what is better than all, phi lanthropists. In compliment to 'lnman nature, we take the liberty merely to mention the names of Lord Dudley Stuart and Lord Ashley. The works of the slow fellows, especially their poetry, indicate in a greater or less degree the social position of the authors; seldom or never deficient in good taste, and not without feeling, they lack power and daring. The smooth style has their preference, and their verses smack of the school of Lord Fanny ; indeed, we know not that, in poetry or prose, we can point out one of our low fellows of the present day rising above judicious mediocrity. It is a curious fact, that the most daring and original of our noble authors have, in their day, been fast fellows ; it is only necessary to name Rochester, Buckingham, and Byron. Among the slow fellows, are multitudes of pretenders to intellect in a small way. These patronize a drawing-master, not to learn to draw, but to learn to talk of drawing; they also study the Penny Magazine and other profound works, to the same purpose ; they patronize the London University and the Society for the Diffusion of Useful Knowledge, as far as lending their names ; for, being mostly of the class of fashion able screws, they take care never to sucscribe any thing. They have a refined taste in shawls, and are, consequently, in the confidence of dressy old women, who hold them up as examples of every thing that is good, They take chocolate of a morning, and tea in the evening ; drink sherry with a biscuit, and wonder how people can eat those hot lunches. They take constitutional walks and Cockle's pills ; and, by virtue of meeting them at the Royal Society, are always con sulting medical men, but take care never to offer them a a guinea. They talk of music, of which they know some thing—of books, of which they know little—and of pictures, of which they know less : they have always read " the last novel," which is as much as they can well carry : they know literary, professional, and scientific men at Somerset House ; but, if they meet them in Park-lane, look as if they never saw them before : they are very peevish, have something to say against every man, and always say the worst first : they are very quiet in their manner, always sly, and never use any of the colloquialisms of the fast fellows . they treat their inferiors with great consideration, addressing them, " honest friend," " my good man," and so on, but have very little heart, and less spirit. They equally abhor the fast fellows and the pretenders to fashion. They are afraid of the former, who are always ridiculing them and their pursuits, by jokes theoretical and practical. If the fast fellows ascertain that a slow fellow affects sketching, they club together to annoy him, talking of the autumnal tints, and the gliding of the western hemisphere; if a botanist, they send him a cow-cabbage or a root of mangel-wurzel, with a serious note, stating, that they hear it is a great curiosity in his line; if an entomologist, they are sure to send him away " with a flea in his ear." If he affects poetry, the fast fellows make one of their servants transcribe, from Bell's Life, Seroggins's poetical version of the fight between Bendigo and Bungaree, or some such stuff; and having got the slow fellow in a corner, insist upon having his opinion, and drive him nearly mad. All these, and a thousand other pranks, the fast fellows play upon their slow brethren, not in the hackneyed fashion which low people call gagging,. and genteel people quizzing, but with a seriousness and gravity that heightens all the joke, and makes the slow fellow inexpressibly ridiculous. It is astonishing, considering the opportunities of the slow fellows, that they do not make a better figure ; it seems won derful that they who glide swiftly down the current of fortune with wind and tide, should be distanced by those who, close hauled upon a wind, are beating up against it all their lives ; but so it is ;—the compensating power that rules material nature, governs the operations of the mind. To whom much is given of opportunity, little is bestowed of the exertion to improve it. Those rho rely more or less on claims extrinsic, are sure to be surpassed by those whose power is from within. After all, the great names of our nation (with here and there an exception to prove the rule) are plebeian. Mankind may be divided into three classes—those who learn from the experience of others ; they are happy men— those who learn from their own experience: they are wise men—and lastly, those who learn neither from their own nor from other people's experience: they are fools. have to perform the We often think tE pleasant wade through, for which the I —but to the old barber's principle, Bradshaw's Journal; Illustrated by Stephenson and of Walmsley : Liverpool.

This tale has an illustration of Red Cliff Church, Bristol, " The Astrologer's Bride" is also an !original story, illustrative of London in the Olden time, by Miss Reddell. It is well told and will delight the lovers of romance. Mr. Sargent contributes some extracts from his " Old Schoolmaster's Book of Records." Mrs. Caulton describes a Ramble. A. queer story called " The Ghost Haunted," some sweet stanzas by John Bolton Roger son, and a song by Robert Burns, the eldest son of the poet, (equal to some of his father's,) and an able article on the Sheffield and Manchester Railway, with a view of the Ethe- row Viaduct, complete the number. As we have taken con siderable interest in this railway we shall give the following extract, a description of the viaduct, which is indeed a stu pendous undertaking : . " The view before the reader delineates one of the most beautiful and stupendous works connected with railways to which engineering science has yet given birth. The line of the Sheffield, Ashton, and Manchester Railway, is curried over the river Etherow by a splendid viaduct of three arches, forrqed of stone and timber. The arches are composed of three timber ribs each, formed of three-inch planks, put to- gether on the laminating principle, with tar and brown paper between each layer. The centre arch is 150 feet span, and forty feet versed sine. The western arch is 135 feet span, and the eastern 120 feet ; the radius of each being the same as the centre arch, so that the thrust upon the stone piers is rendered as equal as possible. The whole of the ribs are five feet in depth ; those in the centre of each arch are two feet four inches wide, and those at the outsides one foot len inches. The spandzils are composed of timber framing, upon which are placed the main longitudinal beams, which carry the cross joisting and the half balks upon which the rails and chairs are fastened. The cross joists are five feet apart from centre to centre. The three ribs in each arch are firmly braced to gether by diagonal and cross stays and wrought iron rods. The extreme length of the viaduct is '506 feet. Its length, however, is inconsiderable, compared with other similar mi. dertakiugs, and is not so remarkable a feature as the extra ordinary height at which the trains and heavy engines used on this line are safely and rapidly carried across the valley below. The extreme height from the foundations to the top of the viaduct is 136 feet—more than ten feet higher than the viaduct under the Manchester knd Birmingham Railway, at Stockport, and about fourteen lea higher than the celebrated chain bridge over the Menai Straits. The quantity of stone used is about one hundred and eighty-six thousand cubic feet, and of timber about 41,000 cubic feet. The foundations of the piers and abutments are laid upon the solid rock. The piers at the base above the footings are forty-three and a half feet by twenty-two and a half feet, and at the springing they are thirty-five feet by fifteen feet. The stone, which was brought from near Tintwistle (sir miles distant), is of excel lent quality, and much superior to quarries in the immediate neighbourhood, and the whole of the work is solid Ashlar. The timber is from the Baltic, all dressed with the plane, and has been immersed in a solution of sulphate of copper to render it impervious to the dry rot, or the attack4af insects. The entire structure was designed by Joseph Locke, Esq., C.E., and executed under the management of Alfred S. Jee, Esq., the resident engineer of the company. The first foundation stone of this gigantic undertaking was laid on the sth of March, 1842, by John Chapman, Esq., one of the directors of tile company, and the whole, notwithstanding the turns-out of workmen and the changes of the weather, was completed and opened on the 24th of December, 1842. The cost of the erection, we understand, was about £25,000. In this system of timber bridge building, the straight trussing in the main principle of support is dispensed with, for the spandril framing cannot be considered ss such. It is merely a combination of wood-work to convey the weight passing over the roadway on the simple curved rib ; and all timbers in a state of tension are avoided, for when a weight enters be roadway the whole struetu The next on the heap is the work by " The Accountant fur Irish Inheritances," entitled Xs.d. ; or, Accounts of Irish Heirs.

By a statute of King Athelstan, grandson of Alfred, it was provided, " That any merchant who made three voyages, on his own account, beyond the British Channel, should be entitled to the privilege of a thane, or gentleman." REVIVAL OF TIIE TERRY ALT SYSTEM.--In the neigh bourhood of Kilwore , Limerick, parties of men have com menced patrolling, dressed " Lady Clare" style, and serv i ng treatening notices on the farmers obnoxious to them. A dozen paupers, in the Bury St. Edmond's Union Work house, were brought before the magistrates for refusing to work at the head wheel by which malt is ground, and four of them were committed to the House of Correction for 21 days. An enormous wild cat, weighing upwards of 121b5., was killed in the Castle Wood, near Morpeth, by a terrier, a few days ago, after a dreadful encounter, in which the dog was severely punished. M IRA eLE.—The Waterford Mirror states that the vener• able Father Barry, who died in that city about twelve months ago, has been disinteired, and is now walking in the Friary there in the same state as when he expired. It is understood that the investigation which has been so long in progress by the Customs Revenue Commission has at length produced active measures in the Exchequer Court against several of the Loudon houses, for fraud and subor nation of the Officers of Customs. EXTRAORDINARY EFFECTS OF THE STORM.—One of the most curious accidents was the fall, on Friday, of a large truck, used to move blocks of stone, and weighing nearly three tons, off a high scaffold at the new London Royal Ex change. It damaged the scaffold, but, luckily, fell on none of the workmen. THE COMPLETE SUFFRAGISTS. -- Mr. Joseph Sturge has published a letter respecting the Complete Suffrage Agita tion, in which he disclaims any intention or desire to alter the constitution of Queen, Lords, and Commons ; his sole object being to render the lower house of the legislature really a representation of the whole people. The Duke of Newcastle has commenced a new road through his estate at Worksop, for the purpose of employing the ne cessitous poor. The road will confer no benefit on his grace but cut up his field. He likewise presents the stone required for the purpose. Would that the wealthy members of the Anti-Corn-law League would go and do likewise. The hull of the Mountaineer steamer, formerly in the Swansea and Liverpool trade, which sunk in the Menai Straights, in consequence of touching the Swilley rocks, about two years ago, has at length been raised by native skill. Neither the hull nor powerful engines have sustained much damage. The residence of the late Lord Norbury has been burned— by accident our Dublin cotemporaries are inclined to think ; but are they sure ? Have no threats been made ? no letters received ? We should like to ask the agent whether three, at least, were not long since addressed to him ? and whether they did not expressly threaten the destruction which has now taken place ?—Cork Constitution. Mr. George Wyse, the brother of the hon. member for Waterford, who had obtained a verdict, with £BOO damages, for a most atrocious libel which appeared in the Waterford Ztfail, has forgiven the proprietor of that paper the whole amount, and accepted an apology, on finding he had been deceived and made a tool of by other parties in the publica tion of the libel. A letter from Marseilles states that the month of January has been mild in that part of the country to an unprece dented degree, and that all the trees are putting forth their leaves. This is considered an unfortunate circumstance, as severe frosts in the south of France in March and April are not uncommon, and if vegetation should have advanced much before that period very serious injury will be experienced. SINGULAR DISCOVERY. —On Mondry last a person, named Sales, who is a c owkeeper, residing in Vishergate, bought a quantity of muscles for consumption; on opening one of them, he found it contained a gold ring, which he has now in his possession. \VC leave the cause of its singular locality to the researches of the marvellous.—Doncaster Chronicle.

EXTRAORDINARY SCENE.-At the Yeovil Special Ses sions, on Wednesday, Mr. Poole, clerk of the parish of liar dington, appeared to answer the complaint of Edward and Harriet Purchase for an assault committed under very ex traordinary circumstances. Harriet Purchase deposed that she had the misfortune to lose her child, and that on the 18th December she had it taken into the church to be buried. It was customary in that parish to take the body into the church before service, and for it to remain until the minister was able to proceed with it to the grave. They were a few mi nutes behind time when they arrived, and the service had commenced. Farmer Dodge, one of the churchwardens, told them that the corpse must be carried out again, and directed the bearers to remove it. Witness endeavoured to prevent its removal, and sat down upon the coffin. The defendant then laid hold of the coffin, and attempted to remove it out of the church. He used so much violence that she supposed the body had been turned over, 'Witness was much agitated, and had not recovered the shock. Many of the congregation left the church in disgust. Mr. Poole, iu his defence, said, that in consequence of a malignant fever which was prevalent at the time, the rector (Mr. Hellyer) refused to allow any bodies being taken into the church. He had sent a man to ask the complainants at what time they would bury the child, so as to avoid an interruption during the service. The wo man made a great noise, and said the chld should be buried like other people's children. As they were reading the ser vice, the funeral probession came in, and Mr. Dodge told them to carry the b o dy out again. Mrs. Purchase said the rector had bette r m i n d his preaching, and went on with a deal of impudence, an d sat down upon the cof f in. The rector called Mr. Apsl ey , the other churchwarden , who refu s e d to interfere. The rec t or t h en told defendant to remove the body. He accordingly went to Mr. Dodge , and said , " If sh e w on' t move, we will carry h er , corpse and all." The handle gave way, when Mrs. Purchase rose, and struck him a violent blow that he was n ear l y d ea f f r om the effects of it. Mr. Chitty, a solicitor, who appeare d for the complainants, submitted that a most vi o l ent an d u nprovoked assault had been made ' out. He had, he said, yet to learn that a clergyman could refuse a person, living or dead, admittance into his church. The Bench turned to the Rubric; but Mr. Chitty submitted that was not law. The clerk said that was law which the clergyman pleased. The Magistrates said they thought the clergyman had full control in such matters, and dismissed the case.

The duties on all kinds of foreign and colonial grain still remain unaltered. With a rettirn of very boisterous weather, the general im ports are of an exceedingly limited character within the past few days, the only arrival from abroad being 1200 sacks East India Flour, the trade at the same time, though far from active, has ruled tolerably steady at little or no variation from the currency of Tuesday last. Very few either local or country buyers appeared upon our Corn Exchange this morning, and with that reluctance to purchase which they have been latterly accustomed to evince, we have to report another very dull, heavy, and uninteresting market; but stilt without leading to any material change in the value of any article of the trade, the holders generally remaining tolerably firm at our last quotations. The few transactions in Wheat were chiefly restricted to fresh, useful samples of duty-paid Foreign, and the better qualities of Irish, having very little English offering to-day. Fine Malting Barley, being scarce, would command late prices ; but Grinding parcels, remaining difficult of sale, were easier to purchase. In Malt, Beans, and Pease, we have no variation to note. Oats and Oatmeal, in the absence of country dealers, excited little notice, the latter scarcely sustaining the rates previously obtainable. LIVERPOOL PRICES CURRENT. MADDER, cwt S. d. S. d.

It Although during the last two or three days the trade has been, perhaps, somewhat firmer, it has, upon the whole, been exceedingly slow and languid during the week, and where sales of Wheat and Flour have been practicable, rather lower rates have been sub mitted to the same may be said of Oatmeal and secondary Oats Other articles steady at late rates. At Liverpool and Wakefield yesterday, holders shewed no inclination to submit to further re. duction in the price of Wheat: at the latter, in fact, some slight advance was obtained. At our market of to-day there is little dis position to purchase more than is required by present wants, nor is there any pressure to sell on the part of holders. Prices are not lower than at the early part of the week, and we consider the re duction upon the quotations of our last to be 6d to Is per sack on Flour, and 6d per load on Oatmeal. Other articles maintain the previous currency, and, towards the close of the market, more inclination for business was observable.

COTTON MARKET.-WEEKLY REPORT There has been a fair demand for American descriptions, from the trade and for exportation, with some business on speculation ; but in consequence of the continued desire on the part of Importers to realise, and the great supply on the market, prices have again declined id to id in all descriptions of American and Brazil, and id in Egyptian and Surat.
