Mr. Banning is well known as an accomplished organist. He is engaged at St. Jude's Church. He has been before the public as a composer on several occasions. In the pre sent instance he has been more than ordinarily successful. The ballad of " Land and Sea" is a flowing melody, dis playing taste and fancifulness. It is one that will become a favourite with every singer. It is easy of acquirement, and capable of being made much of. Think not of Me A Ballad, written by W Clark, Esq. ; Music by F. H. J. Pendleton. Liverpool: Smith Mr. Pendleton's compositions have several times been brought before the notice of the Liverpool amateurs lately, and have been well received—for instance his " Wanted, £B,OOO, £lO,OOO, or £12,000," " We bring back to mind how the light hours flew," and other ballads. The pre sent is such an one as a despairing lover would sing to his unkind mistress. The music is graceful, but of a mournful character THE SUPPOSED ATTEMPT UPON THE LIFE OF THE QUEEN On Monday forenoon, the father of the hump-backed youth had an interview with his son, in Newgate, and the scene was (as might be readily imagined) a painful one. The prisoner stated that he was very comfortable, and almost in the same breath said he did not " know what to make of it," (alluding to his commitment). He betrayed deep emotion upon the mention of his mother's name, but upon every other subject he displayed an absence of mind. He said that he slept in the fields on the night previous to the supposed attempt, and on the following day " wandered into the park with his pistol in his pocket." It is known in many instances a deformity of the spine has been connected with an aberration of intellect, but whether that is the case in this instance has not yet been developed. The prisoner appears to be much attached to the chaplain, and reads with attention the books which the rev. gentleman has supplied him with. His food consists of the ordinary prison diet, viz., 20 ounces of bread per day, gruel for breakfast and supper, and a quart of soup, or six ounces of meat every alternate day. The prisoner was placed in a cell by himself at his own request. There are some singular circumstances connected with this and Oxford's case. The following particulars may be relied upon : The father of Oxford and Bean's father were playmates to gether, and were subsequently both brought up to be chasers, and consequently their acquaintance existed until within a short period of the death of Oxford's father, which took place in one of the metropolitan hospitals. Mr. Bean, who is an industrious and respectable workman, gave information to Inspector Penney, of the G division, of his son having absconded from home nearly a week before the supposed at tempt upon the life of the Queen, and that information led to young Bean's apprehension ; and it is not a little singular that Inspector Penney is the uncle of Oxford, his wife being the sister of Mrs. Oxford. Great and general indtgla4tion is felt as to pistols being sold as toys to idle lads, a practmethat has resulted in the commission of an act which has created so much alarm in the public mind, SIR ROBERT PEEL AND THE ANTI-CORN-LAW DELEGATES. From the Morning Herald.) 111 the official report of the interview which the anti-corn law delegates had on Saturday with Sir Robert Peel, there are two notable instances of the unfairness both in intention and inference which are common in persons of that kidney. Mr. Lawrence Heyworth, the month-piece and spouter in ordinary to the declamatory free traders of Liverpool, while discoursing most magniloquently of the distress which exists in that town, was interrupted by Sir Robert Peel with the very natural and simple inquiry—" Has the trade of Liver pool fallen off?" There could, we should suppose, have been but little difficulty for a person so learned and familiar with its statistics to reply to this question ; but a direct answer did not suit Mr. Heyworth's purpose, and thus he fenced, parried, and attempted to escape from the inquiry. " Mr. Heyworth said that there was a host of shipping anchartered, and likely to continue so, in the docks. " Sir R. Peel.—Has the value of the exports from Liver pool fallen off ? __ `'Mr. Heyworth said that it must be evident from what he was saying, that the quantity of goods used at home must be greatly diminished. Dear bread, in consequence of its being dear, absorbed too much of the wages of the poorer classes to permit a market to be found for the goods exported abroad. " Sir It. Peel.—Did I understand you to aay that the ex ports had diminished ? " Mr. Heyworth.—The exports must be increased when the consumption at home is diminished." Mr. Heyworth's shufling is not so contemptible as the false inference with which he endeavourrd to neutralise the fact, which it required all Sir Robert Peel's firmness to extort. Notwithstanding " the wonderful composure, both of muscle and countenance," which the right hon. baronet is described to have displayed on the occasion of this interview, a smile of scorn and indignation at the disingenuousness of this quibbling delegate of Liverpool's anti-corn-law fury most have been visible when his cross-examination had brought out the falt, the concealment of which was thus impudently attempted, and its proper application blusteringly perverted. " The exports must be increased when the consumption at home is diminished " ! Wherefore " must " they ? On what compulsion is there any such irresistible necessity ? If increase of exports be produced by decrease of home con sumption, how is it that home consumption has not been regularly decreasing for the last fifty years? If the Liver pool agitator's political economy be worth a pin's fee, we ought long ago to have been reduced here in England to nudity. His costive reply assumes that the amount of pro duction can never be lessened, and that if the supply be not consumed at home, it will be sent abroad. Grant him his monstrous assumption, and why should there be any distress in the manufacturing districts when the amount of fabrics made is not lessened? But enough of this foolish though furious spouter ; his nonsense would not be worth noticing, save as a specimen of the absurdities propounded by the rabid wisdom of anti-corn-law leaguers; it can pass current only in the columns of the Chronicle. The union of dissenting teachers and desperate manufac turers who visited the Premier on Saturday seem, indeed, to have considered themselves entitled to make what state ments they pleased. Thus Mr. Whitehead, of Leeds, we are inform e d, " stood before Sir Robert Peel as a tradesman of that town," and " was proceeding with details of its wide spread and awful suffering," when an ‘ r a l Sir R. Peel inquired whether the consumption of tea sugarhad decreased ? cies ha d Whitehead believed the consumption of these arti .. sir i i , ot p been so much affected. Mr. aheadWid. Suppo it should have increased ?" position w as the knew well enough that the Premier's sup ,eslity—that the consumption of tea and sugar had increased in Leeds ; and thus he imitated Mr. Heyworth in hi s able : a ttempt to explain away what was undeni "Mr Whitehead classes of the populatio said, that the food of the poorer , generally consisted of bread, milk, meat, potatoes, cheese obliged t d butter. The male part of them did not, except when take tea and coffee. What was used of those articles g v r e a ' a so in r the worst quality and the lowest price, so much that the revenue was scarcely benefited by the consumption ignorance is compressed What a mass of folly and w ilt, - ' into these sentences. The increaseddLersumption of tea and „ vih e rich alone ; the sugar in Leeds, according . to this obliged 1" and credulity and impudence, is caused b;g t a u t ed. compound of poor in Leeds only use tea and coffee preserved when they do consume thor articles " the reerinveonbeitureotirsp valorem, that benefited by the consumption." How si r his gravity whilst listening to such nonsense i s can imagine. One would imagine from this statement than w e the customs' duties on tea and sugar were . levied ad those and that it was only the high-priced articles which contributed to the revenue. If the poor can consume tea and coffee and " scarcely benefit the revenue, the consumption o f commodities cannot be checked by the duties imposed on them ; if there be duties on them, such consumption must benefit the revenue. On to one of the horns of this dilemm a Mr. Whitehead, the Leeds tradesman, " who stood before Sir Robert Peel," must mount. Let him choose whichever suits the ignorance and glorious mental confusion in a com- which he revels. The man seems, however, to have had punctious twinge, for in the very next sentence after that last quoted, he proceeded to account for an increase of consump tion, "if such there was," by informing Sir Robert Peel that " the mcn who still went to the factorie s had tea and coffee dinners." Comment on such ridiculous inconsistencies and contradictions as these is useless. There is surely misery, suffering, and distress enough in the country to induce even anti-corn-law and spouters to cease disgusting the well-disposed charitable by their flagrant attempts at imposition and monstrous disingenuousness.

PAISLEY. — Ten barrels of beef, and an equal number of beans, have been sent by Mr. James Watt, of New York, for the benefit of the unemployed in Paisley, the Lords of kthe Treasury having consented that they should be admitted 14134 Peter Tally examined by Mr. Schoales—ln the month,of April last a man named Keenan spoke to me in the market of Granard. He asked me would I like to get on. He brought me into a room where there were five or six persons. The prisoner was in the room. I did not know him before. Was introduced to him by Keenan. The prisoner was to make me a ribandman, but I would not accept of it. Keenin said to prisoner, " Here is a man I can recommend." The' prisoner seemed to think well of it. We talked a little upon the riband business. The prisoner said he was a ribandinan. He said he was head man among them. There was some talk of towns. The prisoner mentioned the towns of Scrabby, Granard, Arvagh, and Edgeworthstown, round to the Cal- lows' side. He also mentioned the county of "Westmeath, and said he had some power over these places. Keenan said something of people sending cattle to Lord Lorton to graze, which Keenan complained of. The prisoner said he would come down to Keenan's and settle the affair. Mr. Howley and the police then came in and seareb,ed us all, but finding no papers went away. After Mr. Hipkwley and the pblice were gone, M`Canna was very angry with them for searching us, and with Mr. Howley, for bringing about things that happened about five or six years ago. Ar Canna also said he would haae a stock purse made, and have some of themtaken down. ----- To the prisoner —I had not' known you before thdt day. Keenan said, " This is the *Man I was speaking to you about." You said " Very well." Keenan'spoke to you about getting me on. I don't . think it a fair tfuestion-to ask me if ever I was a ribandtnan. The Court told witness he was not bound to answer that question. Witness—l suppose I was stopped being made by Mr. Howley coming in. I said nothing about Michael Gill. I had not seen Mr. Howley that day until he came in. •I had no conspiracy to get up evidence for Michael Gill. You said you would have a stock purse made to take Mr. Howley and some of them down. You said you were bead man of Scrabby and Arvagh, and the other places. I had to you, and never lodged informations against you. I was served with a summons to come here. I never said if I got back I would set Michael Gill free again, as I did for the murder. I never spoke to you of the evidence I made for Gill. Keenan and you both said you were head men - dyer the town of Granard. I did not swear by the contents .of anything after Mr. Howley went out, or demand whisky. might have boasted of snapping a paper, after they went out. I think I did snap the paper from the policeman. It was an old process the policeman bad taken out of my pocket. P. C. Howley, Esq. resident magistrate, examined by Mr. Fox—Witness went on the 25th of April last to the liOuse of a man named Hourigan, in Granard, and found five persons at a table in a room there. The prisoner, Tally, and Keenan were three of them. Searched them, but found 'nothing treasonable on their persons. These are the paiswords (identified the paper found in the lid of the trunk, on which they were written). • James Hagan, examined by Mr. Henderson-1 am a na tive of Sligo. I know of the existence of a secret society which was known by the name of the Sons of the Shamrock or ribandism. lam upwards of 16 years a member of that society. When I was made I was sworn on my knees to 14 articles : The first article was— " I do declare,in'iiie presence of Almighty God, that I am here to join the Song of the Shamrock of my own free will and accord. " 2nd—That I Ain not buy anything from a heretic or orangeman, when I can get the same as good and cheap from a brother." There were 12 other articles. The society were known by secret signs and passwords. (The witness here repeated the passwords mentioned in the third and fourth counts of the indictment, which were the passwords for last October.) The passwords are changed four times a year. There are different officers of the society. The county delegate is highest ; next parish-masters, next committee or council men, and lowest of all the common members. The re newals are made by the county delegates. I was a county delegate for Sligo and partly for Longford. Was at a meet ing of delegates on the 26th of December last, at Derrymore, county of Armagh. There was one delegate there from Monaghan and two from Armagh. I sent " goods," which mean passwords, to Longford, about the 15th of January last. The passwords for last October are written in this copy-book. By the Court.—l think I can't read them out of the copy book they are so badly written. To Mr. HENDERSON.—I can't say that the words written on this paper (which was the paper found in the lid of the trunk) are passwords. I think they are the Leinster pass words. There are Ulster and Leinster societies, which are quite different and opposed to each other. Both societies are exclusively Roman Catholic. [The witness here, after some time, was enabled to read the greater part of the passwords written in the copy-book, which he did.] To Mr. Henderson.—The words I have just read are part of the October passwords, mentioned in the third and fourth counts of the indictment. The objects of the society were . directly opposed to orangeism. If any member of t with thamet y was dispossessed of his land, and any one else too e k s() i would not get long to live. If you annoyed any of the he from 1825 to 1831 so ciety you would get a good hiding, if you got off In such cases a meeting was called by the parish master, who t. directed what was to be done to the people giving offence. I have made, I am sure, 2000 members, which was before I became a delegate. It is the parish mas ter's not the delegate's duty, to make members. About one third of the lower class in this country are ribandmen. This county and Sligo belongs to the Ulster society, and have no connection with the Leinster society. I have known several foreigners at the meetings of the delegates. There was one fromlast. They could make themselves known to us. The dele gates can make themselves known to each other without the common members knowing how. I don't consider myself now to belong to that society. I gave it up when I was ar rested, and five papers taken which were built up in the wall. The information was close. The October passwords were settled at Middletown, in the county of Armagh. I was in gaol when they were made. I sent my parish master to the meeting, and he delivered the passwords to me, and I sent the Crown them or t t ln o ew D ap e r n ifis i so prisoner. t I o be tu distributed rned to sa save e n this county. was first businessjanrgreistt.edTlhdoimdasm,myself and family.

THE OLD CHURCH k train passed through the old church door And stood within its nave; The morning sun upon the floor, Its light through shadows gave.

The babe looked up in the good priest's face, And smiled as it took the sign of grace. The train passed out through the arch of stone, And the grey church was left alone. The mid-day sun beams on a crowd That throngs this holy spot, With merry shouts and laughter loud— Their cares are all forgot ! A trusting maid and loving youth Kneel at that good man's feet; And, after him, their vows of truth, Of faith, of love, repeat. The lovers look in each other's eyes— Will they live a life of smiles or sighs? The crowd passed out through the arch of stone, And the old grey church was left alone. At eve, within that old church door, A silent group appears; The sun is set, their mirth is o'er— Laghter is quenched in tears ! The coffin, and the gloomy pall, And breaking hearts are there ; The holy man, at sorrow's call, Breathes out the mourner's prayer. How full is his heart ! yet every day He sees life bloom, sees it decay ! The group passed out through the arch of stone And the grey old church was left alone. LITERARY NOTICES Handy Andy. Samuel Lover. London : Lover. This is a very admirable number. The mode in which " Dick the Devil" and Murphy " bottle" the voters is told with a humour aad drollery that is quite irresistible. The "Legend of Tom Connor's Cat" is another rich bit ;—in fact, all through this month's portion of the story there is fun, wit, and merriment, almost to repletion. The illustra tions are capital ; there is an originality about them that ex hibits the talent of the artist-bard. In this number is an exquisite ballad—which Mr. Russell introduced at his lec ture lately on character, at the Portico, singing it with great taste. Mr. Lover dovetails his songs beautifully throughout the work, without the appearance of their being laboured or merely produced for effect. Land and Sea. By William Critchley Prince ; composed by Jesse Banning. London : Novello. ATROCI6US MURDERS IN AMERICA .. A manuscript was left in our office yesterday from which we condense the following statement :—The passengers on board the steam-boat Sunflower, which stopped on her way down at E. P. King's woodvard, were informed that some horrible murders had been committed in that vicinity, and that the citizens were in pursuit of the murderers. After wooding, they had proceeded but a short distance when they perceived a crowd upon the bank, which they rightfully con cluded were the pursuers. They stopped, and it appeared that a negro named Joseph, belonging to Mr. Voorhees, on Bayou de Glaize, had been persuaded to run off and join him by a negro runaway from New Orleans, named Enoch. They murdered a Mr. Harrington, and took with them into the woods his wife and a young lady. They called Mr. Har rington out of his house; he unsuspectingly went, and a pistol and gun were presented at him. He was guarded into the house, when the negroes laid their weapons on the bed, and declared their purposes to be to murder him and abduct the females. Harrington seized a pistol, aimed it at the breast of Enoch, and exploded the cap, without discharging the load. Joseph aimed the rifle at Harrington, the young lady clung to Harrington ; the rifle went off, killing him and wounding her. His body was trown into a lake, and the females carried off. The negroes had with them a mulatress named Margaret, whose entreaties saved the lives of the poor women, who were inhumanfy outraged. They then killed-a Mr. Todd, and carried off his wife and child. They also killed another person, name unknown. The citizens caught Joseph on Sunday, and the girl Mar garet. Enoch escaped, though supposed to be wounded by some one or more of the balls fired at him. Joseph confessed, and they determined to burn him alive. He was chained to a tree, the faggots piled around, and in that situation being questioned by F. Routh, he declared as before that he no other accomplice than Enoch, and that Enoch made kill the men who were murdered. His ales were ter . , when the fire reached him, and by superhuman exertions. wrested the staple which confined the chain to the tree. He was then shot, and his body cast back into the tire. The girl is in gaol in Vidalia. They are still pursuing the other villain. Since writing the above, we learn from a gentleman of the neighbourhood that only one female was attacked and carried away from Harrington's—his young daughter. The state ment is substantially correct in other particulars.—Natchez Courier. The terrible scene of burning the negro is thus described by the Free Trader:— " The boy was taken and chained to a tree immediately on the banks of the Mississippi, on what is called Union Point. Faggots were then collected and piled around him, to which he appeared quite indifferent. When the work was com pleted, he was asked what he had to say ? He then warned all to take example by him, and asked the prayers of all around ; he then called for a drink of water, which was handed to him ;he drank it and said, ' Now set fire—l am ready to go in peace!' " The torches were lighted and placed in the pile, which soon ignited. He watched unmoved the curling flame as it grew, until it began to entwine itself around and feed upon his body ; then he sent forth cries of agony painful to the ear, begging some one to blow his brains out, at the same time surging with almost superhuman strength, until the staple with which the chain was fastened to the tree, not being well secured, drew out, and he escaped from the burn ing pile. At that moment the sharp ring of several rifles was heard—the body of the negro fell a corpse on the ground. He was picked up by some two or three, and again thrown into the fire and consumed—not a vestige remaining to show that such a being ever existed."—American paper. RIBANDISM AND ITS RAMIFICATIONS Some strange revelations, in connection with this startling system, have been made within the last few days, at the Longford Assizes. The trial of a man, named Francis M`Canna, has displayed, in a new and unexpected light, the ample and elaborate range of tactics adopted by the organised and sanguinary adherents of ribandism. The leading facts of the case are extracted from the report furnished by a local journal ; and it will be seen that, not contented with dis seminating the poison of disaffection throughout this country, the sympathies of traitors in America and France are sought ta. be enlisted. Francis M`Canna was given in charge to the jury, upon an indictment which charged that he, on the Bth day of May, in the fifth year of the Queen's reign, at the parish of Co lumbkill, in the county of Longford, unlawfully and know ingly had in his possession a certain copy, written, of certain passwords, made use of by the Riband Society, for a purpose of the said society, he not being able satisfactorily to account for his possessing the same, which said passwords were as follow, that is to say : The times are on a change. Spain will rebel. Beware of all country places. We can't know who to trust. May the foes of old Erin melt and decay, Like the leaves in October that's blown away. Don't getin a pitson, sir. I humble to your And in other coun4,for, having other passwords in his pos session. Mr. Schoales, Queen's counsel, stated the case for the prosecution. . _ Iwo police co stables proved the finding the riband docu ments in a trunk belonging t9 . the_prisoner. _ THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON The following summary of the character of this eminent man is from his life by Maxwell, and is very succinct and masterly :—" One duty yet remains to be discharged ; and the professional character of him whose military command, commencing at Assaye, and concluding at Waterloo, embra cing such opposite services and scenes, shall be briefly and impartially considered. "The time, however, has yet to come when that character shall be correctly estimated. When party prejudices have died away—petty jealousies subsided—the grave received its honoured tenant—and in Ossian's words, ' the gray stone rests upon the chief',—then, and not till then, will public opinion be dispassionately exercised, and justice awarded to the greatest man whom England has produced. " In a double view Wellington's character is to be examined; for two epochs of a long life were devoted, and almost ex clusively, to very opposite pursuits —war and politics. The history of one epoch we have completed ; and as the memoirs of the second are reserved for a future duty, we will simply content ourselves with observing, that as a politician, many have been abler, but none honester than the Duke of Wel lington. " The intrinsic value of a soldier's character must not be tested by merely what he has done, but by the circumstances under which his exploits have been achieved. What was the opening of Wellington's Peninsular career? He debarked with an army, not 10,000 strong, to operate against an able General, commanding five and twenty thousand disposable soldiers, and at a period immediately subsequent to disas trous campaigns in which the qualities of British soldiers had been unjustly depreciated, while those of their opponents ac quired, by admirable discipline and consequent success, a re putation amounting to invincibility. " That delusion Wellington's first victories dispelled. Was he then cordially supported by his allies, and liberally sus hied by his friends ? No : abroad and at home, he was ssed by the suspicions of one party, and paralysed by the m conduct of the other; and, while an object of deadly jealousy to the imbeciles with whom he was obliged to act, whose errors he was forced to remedy, whose madness he was expected to control, the keenest shaft reached him from that country to which he should have looked confidently for support; and in England, while goaded out of doors by the rabid outpourings of unwashed demagogues, within the walls of St. Stephen's he was exposed to the baser attacks of dis honest statesmen, who, to attain an uuworthy end, would have blasted the hopes of Britain, and left Europe at the mercy of a man whose ambition the extent of a world could not satisfy. " As a great commander, the amount of Wellington's re putation depends upon a simple question :—Was he the first or second of his age ; " That he was less vast in his designs, less daring in exe cution, neither so rapid nor so original a commander as Na poleon, must be admitted, and being later in the field of glory, it is to be presumed that he learned something of the art from that greatest of all masters ; yet something besides the difference of genius must be allowed for the difference of situation ; Napoleon was never, even in his first campaign or Italy, so harassed by the French, as Wellington was by the VARIETIES A SPANISH P ROVERB .—Benefits are written on sand; in juries are engraved on steel. THE WHIGS AND TILE NEW POOR LAW.-1 well re member how I was laughed at, when, some six or seven years ago, I forewarned the whigs " that the New Poor Law would be their ruin." They have, since then, been driven from office by a majority of ONE. That vote was Walter's, who was returned for Nottingham, because of his steady and unflinching opposition to the new poor law. On that point, there can be "no mistake." And as surely as the whigs were driven from office by the power of the Anti-New Poor Law principle, so will the Dictator himself, strong as he fancies that he is, so will he fall, being overcome by the same power. May the time never arrive when any man or any party shall be able to triumph over the British consti t papers. • - - PORTRAIT OF FEARGOS O'CONNOR, BY ONE WHO KNOWS HlNt.—The designing demagogue will soon make himself apparent. Ile generally talks loudly about himself. He is his own trumpeter ; a chronicler of his own patriotism. Before the crowd he plays the sycophant ; flatters their pre judices—and, with a mouthful of vague generalities, endea vours to win their cheers. He praises men, in the hope that they may be pliable enough to worship at his shrine, and when he finds they are not made of blending material, he whispers against them, or he openly assails them. He lies without remorse. He would sacrifice father or uncle to assist his purpose. Like the glass man, he strives to make the people believe that everybody is about to tumble up against him and break him. He is an inventor of plots against his own sacred authority ; a sort of Louis Phillippe, who gets up " assassinations " in order to invest himself with the air of a martyr. A man who talks at random ; a seer, or political prophet, who discovers things that never happen. One who takes credit before the public for deeds of liberality, and wonders " why othersdo not clothe same," and in private violates his word and honour to the parties the world believes him to have served. A maker of pro mises by wholesale. A fellow big with importance, a fair and palpable mixture of knavery and folly.—Vide Henry Vincent's Speech on the late Chartist Conference. THE BRINGS.—The present partners of the house of Baring Brothers, are Thomas B aring , the youngest son of Lord Ashburton ; Francis Baring (the Chancellor of the Exchequer) ; Captain Mildinay, a baronet of small fortune, Lord Ashburton 's son-in-law ; and Joshua Bates, a Yankee, from Boston, whose beginning was as super-cargo of a mer chant vessel. The first of the Barings that came into notice was the father of the present Alexander Baring, now Lord Ashburton. He was the son of a German toy shop-keeper, in Exeter, in England. The foundation of Baring's fortune, was made as contractor to the British government in their vain attempt to hold America in chains, and which tacked two hundred millions to the national debt in England. The Barings managed to keep on terms with both belligerents.

English, Spanish, and Portuguese governments. Theiisys terns of war were, however, alike in principle ; their opera tions being necessarily modified by their different political positions. Great bodily exertion, unceasing watchfulness, exact combinations to protect their flanks and communica tions, without scattering their forces,—these were common to both. In defence firm, cool, enduring ; in attack, fierce and obstinate ; daring, when daring was politic:: but always operating by the flanks in preference to the front : in these things they Fere alike; but, in following up a victory, the English general fell short of the French emperor. The battle of Wellington was the stroke of a battering ram—down went the wall in ruins. The battle of Napoleon was the swell and dash of a mighty wave, before which the harrier yielded, and the roaring - flood poured onwards, covering all.* " It ha.sbp9 objected to the Duke of Wellington's cha racter as'a great man, that he was constitutionally cold and impassable 4 4tern in the exaction of duty—careless in re warding.merit-7ithe end his mighty object—the means a mat ter of indifference. The charge is false ; and had the publi cation of his extensive correspondence possessed no other value, it would have proved in an hundred instances, that misfortune obtained his sympathy, and the widow and or phan met frequently in him a warm and an eloquent sup- porter. " That his firmness approached severity may be imputed rather to the circumstances under which he acted at the mo ment than to any natural harshness of disposition. Had he not possessed the sternest determination, the conflicting ele ments of which his army was composed could neither have been reduced td order, nor could their discipline have been maintained. To restrain military license, to assure the de linquent that his offences would be punished, examples were necessai ily made ; and their salutary effects were best evi denced by the fact, that the conduct of the allied army was as remarkable for peaceable demeanour in cantonments as it was for its heroism and efficiency in the field. " To form a great general, mental and physical qualities are essential ; and with both Wellington was largely gifted. In the vigour of manhood, few were better fitted to endure privations and fatigue. An economist in time, the space allotted for personal indulgence was brief—his hours for re pose were limited—his meals were simple and rapidly de spatched—and hence the greater portion of his time was passed in the saddle or bureau ; and no hospital or canton ment escaped his visits, nor did a letter or report remain un- answered. - " In his manner and address the Duke was always frank, and, when he pleased, dignified and graceful. Easy of access, the soldier's complaint was as attentively listened to as the remonstrance of the general. If a favour were re quired, it was promptly granted, or as decisively refused ; and on the merits of a statement, when once a decision was made, influence would be used in vain, and entreaty pass unheeded. " In personal simplicity, the Duke's costume was in keep ing with his character. He despised everything like parade, and, excepting when their services were necessary, dispensed with the attend-Ince of his staff. Nothing could be more striking than the plainness of his appearance in public, when contrasted with the general frippery and parade of his opponents ; and the peasantry could scarcely be persuaded that the unpretending personage who courteously listened to their story, or returned a passing salute, was the great captain whom conquest had attended from the Tagus to the Seine. " In estimating the military talents of Napoleon and Wel lington—for to compare either with any other commander of the age would be absurd—to the former, a superiority has been generally conceded for the decision with which be fol ,lowed up a defeat, and the important consequences which I always were attendant upon his victories. Both were ad- I mated to have possessed an inimitable skill in handling masses of men, with the same facility that ordinary com manders directed the movements of a brigade. Their com binations were beautiful—their conceptions grand—they 'were not the laboured efforts of military art, but the out breakings of military genius —formed in a moment—executed as rapidly—changed, should circumstances require, and adapted to meet the emergency that might arise. If Wel lington did not push his victories to grand results, let us in quire the causes ; and when Napoleon's military improvisa tion is declared unequalled, let us see how far Wellington's was behind. " The circumstances under, which these two great com manders conducted their campaign different ; for Napoleon had never Wellingto n ' s , difficulties to contend with. The former was a free agent. His battles were deli vered to clear away obstacls that impeded an advance, while Wellington's were generally received to enable him to main tain a position in the Country. • Napoleon, when victorious, had always tbe means in hand to push his success, and secure the fruits of conquest. Wellington's battles were frequently defensive ; and the heavy repulses which masterly combina tions enabled him to inflict were unadorned with the trophies which accompany a bold advance ; and often his most bril liant fields were followed by regressive movements, which always follow a defeat, and rarely attend on victory. " That Wellington possessed within himself the rapid re sources and daring confidence which mark a great com mander, his conduct when •placed in dangerous positions, or at the crisis of a doubtful day, will best establish.f What operations could me more masterly than his retreat across the Tagus,:t or his advance across the Douro? What act more daring than to hold the height of Guinaldo with two weak divisions, within cannon shot of an army strong enough, not to defeat, but annihilate him ? Look at the sudden ruin inflicted on Marmont at Salamanca—the seizure of Arinez§— the counter-stroke at Sauroren Follow the footsteps of the Peninsular army from Rolica to Toulouse. Commence his history at Assaye, and close it on the night of Waterloo. Test his military character by his acts—let him then dispute the palm with Napoleon—and who will pronounce him second to any general of the age ? " In the prime of manhood, Wellington's appearance indi cated both activity and strength. In height he was nearly five feet ten inches ; his shoulders were broad, his chest ex pansive, his arms long; the hand large but well formed; the wrist unusually bony ; the whole frame-work evincing a capability of enduring the extremity of fatigue. The keen gray eyes were brilliant, and his sight remarkable acute. His face was long, the features striking ; the nose acquiline ; the brow open and developed ; and ' the lower portion of the face contradicting, in a singular manner, the stern and al most iron expression of all above the mouth.' " The general expression of the duke's face was cheerful. In, probably, the most trying moment of his career, when the failure of the attack on the great breach at Badajoz was communicated, he was observed to be ' pale, but perfectly collected.' In the hour of his triumph, when he had ascer tained the extent of his conquest, and found that the laurels of Salamanca were added to his wreath. the admirable his_ torian of his wars II thus describes him as he stood :—` I saw him late in the evening of that great day, when the ad vancing flashes of cannon and musketry, stretching as far as the eye could command, showed in the darkness how well the field was won ; he was alone—the flush of victory was on his brow, and his eyes were eager and watchful, but his voice was calm and even gentle. More than the rival of Marlborough, since be had defeated greater warriors than Marlborough ever encountered, with a prescient pride he seemed only to accept this glory as an earnest of greater things.' _ " What he is now, the portrait taken expecially _for this work will faithfully depict. " Seventy-one winters have shed their snows upon his honoured head, and those iron nerves which war and climate could not shake, have felt the hand of time, and owned his power—but, though the frame has yielded, the mind retains its vigour, and the heart beats firmly as it once did upon the battle-field. Like the oak of that proud ship which bore the flag of Nelson, decay is placed upon the surface, but the core remains intact. True to his country, that voice which turned the heady fight' to victory, still gives its fearless counsels in the senate—uninfluenced by party predilection, and reckless whether its honest sentiments accord with po pular opinion, or provoke the clamour of the crowd. " When a century shall have passed away ; when beauty fades into kindred dlist, statesmen are forgotten, the rotten ness of demagogues is exposed, and a new generation won ders only how a past one could be fooled—in the page of England's history one name will stand out in bold relief — and one consenting voice pronounce—that the greatest soldier Britain had produced, was Arthur, Duke of Wellington." " * Napier. t' As for the Englishman's hardiness and enterprise, bear witness the passage of the Douro at Oporto, the capture of Ciudad Rodrigo, the storming of Badajoz, the surprise of the forts at Marabete, the march to Vittoria, the passage of the Bidassoa, the victory of the Nivelle, the passage of the Adour below Bayonne, the fight of Orthez, the crowning battle of Toulouse !

POPERY UNCIIANGED.—Th9 liberalism of the day must indeed be possessed of gigantic influence, nay, of power equal to omnipotence, if, as we are repeatedly told, she has a c t ua ll y effected a muta ti o n for the better in that which ever was, and still remains, " infallible." Mad, and worse tha n ma d , must the people of England be, if, with the broad-bl own banner of hau g hty Rome flaunting to their gaze, with th e blood-dyed inscription, " semper eadem," burning in cha. racters of flame upon it, the conviction of the solemn truth flashes not across their mind with irresistible energy,—that the same measure she meted out in the plenitude of her power to our martyred forefathers will she measure out to us, should we, by our lethargy or impiety, suffer her again to es. tablish her despotic sway in these highly-favoured islands. — From Gems of Protestant Truth. became acquainted witlil4r.William Bingham, who was an agent in the service of the Americans for obtaining sup plies abroad for carrying on the revolution. On the termi nation of the war, Baring and Bingham turned to account the profits they had out of the contest, purchasing up mili tary and other claims against both governments, which they procured for mere trifles, and got them admitted into the funded debt of the United States and of Great Britain. Mr. Bingham got rich, lived in princely style in Philadel phia, and had fine daughters. Mr. Baring wooed and married one, and his brother married a second. These two commissaries, by joining together, progressed to that degree of opulence and power which has astonished the world. In 1834, Alexander Baring retired from the house of Baring Brothers, taking with him a large fortune—leaving behind £BOO,OOO on interest; but in 1836, the house was affected by the general pressure which took place, and Lord Ashburton came forward and lent them 1:500,000, which is yet due, together with the original £BOO,OOO. The house has an agency in Liverpool, New York, New Orleans, and at several points of the Continent of Europe—it is largely interested in the bonds and advances of the American State, and the present visit here of Lord Ash burton will disclose a page of very important matter in the current history of Britain and America.—American paper. WINDERMERE.—" Saw ye ever banks and braes and knolls so beautifully bedropt with human dwellings? There is no solitude about Windermere. Shame on human nature were Paradise uninhabited ! Here, in amicable neighbourhood, are halls and huts—here rises, through groves, the dome of the rich man's mansion—and there the low roof of the poor man's cottage beneath its one single sycamore ! Here are hundreds of small properties hereditary in the same families for hundreds of years—and never, never, 0 Westmoreland ! may thy race of statesmen be extinct—nor the virtues that ennoble their humble households ! See, suddenly brought forth by sunshine from among the old woods—and then sinking yway into her usual unobtrusive serenity—the lake loving Rayrig, almost level, so it seems, with the water, yet smiling over her own quiet bay from the grove-shelter of her pastoral mound. Within her walls may peace ever dwell with piety—and the light of science long blend with the lustre of the domestic hearth. Thence to Calgarth is all one forest —yet glade-broken, and enlivened by open uplands ; so that the roamer, while he expects a night of umbrage, often finds himself in the open day, beneath the bright blue bow of Heaven, haply without a cloud. The eye travels delighted over the multitudinous tree-tops—often dense as one single tree—till it rests, in sublime satisfaction, on the far-off mountains, that lose not a woody character till the tree sprinkled pastures roughen into rocks—and rocks tower into precipices where the falcons breed. But the lake will not suffer the eye long to wander among the distant glooms. She wins us wholly to herself—and restlessly and passion ately for a while, but calmly and affectionately at last, the heart embraces all her beauty, and wishes that the vision might endure for ever, and that here our tents were pitched— to be struck no more during our earthly pilgrimage. Ima gination lapses into a thousand moods. 0 for a fairy pinnace to glide and float for aye over those golden waves A hermit-cell on sweet Lady-Holm A silvan shieling on Loughrig side ! A nest in that nameless dell, which sees but one small slip of Heaven, and longs at night for the reas cending visit of its few loving stars ! A dwelling open to all the skyey influence on the mountain brow, the darling of the rising or the setting sun, and often seen by eyes in the lower world glittering through the rainbow !"—Recreations of Christopher North. WHISPERS.—Much has been done by whispers. Royal favourites have been undermined and ruined. Reputations have been stabbed. Boarding school misses, and even nuns, have been induced to run away from schools and elope from convents, and throw themselves, literally and bodily, into the arms of lovers. Wives have been tempted to bid their hus bands good night and their gallants g ood mornin g , and if they had children, to forget them, as if their little voices were less sonorous upon the soul than the whispers of flat tery. Conspiracy has been matured, murders planned, treasons contrived, and country maidens seduced, all in whispers. Sighs are w hispers far more expressive than the loudest lamentations of grief, or the loudest prote s t a ti ons of love. The breath of life is in a whisper, and when it in creases to an audible sound, it is the vulgar and common language of every-day wants, requests, denials, demands, excuses, pretences, and lies. Whispering is the grand mover of the social machine, the steam-engine of creation, and the sine qua non of our temporal, moral, and religious existence. He that has ears—which is rather common since the pillory was abolished — let him hear; he that has under standing—which is rather uncommon—let him ponder on these truths, ANECDOTE OF BRAHAM.—The Boston Transcript gives the following:---" A somewhat laughable incident occurred the last time Mr. Braham was here. The incomparable vocalist had heard so much about the celebrated Elder Knapp, that he one evening went with some members of his family to hear and see the somewhat eccentric divine. Having been obliged, on account of the crowd, to listen to the sermon at something more than a respectful distance,' the prince of tenors, when those who were seeking after religion were invited to come forward and se a t th emse l ves i n t h e pews near the pulpit, wishing to obtain a nearer v i ew o f t h e preac h er, (not being able, owing to his short-sightedness, to distinguish a man from a mouse a rood from his nose,) and not under standing the purport of the in v it a ti on , wa lk e d d e lib era t e ly up the broad aisle, and seated himself in one of the pews in close proximity to the sacred desk. As he was, with the aid of his eye-glass, scrutinising the figure and features of the elder with the eager gaze of curiosity, completely absorbed in his work, a reve ren d or l a y gen tl eman enqu i re d of him, in tones of soothing te n d ernes s, what was th e s t a t e of his mind, and bow he felt? `Never better in my life, thank you,' responded the vocalist, on the point of grasping the hand of the stranger, who had, as he thought, merely enquired after the state of his health." ST. SWITHIN'S DAY (July Is).—The predilection for the period of forty days is as remarkable in these ancient prog nostications of weather as in many customs derived from re mote ages, which have given us the term quarantine. This, or rather quarantena, among military and monastic writers, denotes a space of forty days. In a truce between Henry the First anti Robert Earl of Flanders, one of the articles is to this effect :—lf Earl Robert should depart from the treaty, and the parties could not be reconciled to the king within three quaradtines, each of the hostages should pay one hun dred marks, By the laws of jEthelbirht, who died in 1016, the limitation for the payment of the fine for slaying a man at an open grave was fixed in the Saxon manner to forty nights, by which they computed instead of days. The privi lege of sanctuary was also confined within the same number of days. By the ancient costuniale of Preston, about the reign of Henry the Second, a condition was imposed upon every newly-made burgess, that, if he neglected to build a house within forty days, he should forfeit forty pence. There seems to be no reason to question that this precise term is deduced from the period of Lent, which is itself an imitation of the fast of Christ, who may have chosen forty days in imitation of the fast of Elijah, who copied the fast of Moses, who stated that the diluvial rain was upon the earth forty days and nights. The Pagans themselves observed this number in the mysteries of Ceres and properine, in which the wooden image of a virgin was lamented over during forty days, or rather nights, if the computation be not here the same as among the northern nations. Tertullian relates, as a fact well known to the heathens, that for forty days an entire city remained suspended in the air over Jerusalem—a certain presage of the millenium. The following are in stances of this predilection shown - by the founders of our legal polity, when they had occasion to limit a short interval of time for any particular purpose :—Anciently, no man was suffered to abide in England above forty days, unless he were enrolled in some tithing or decennarv. A widow shall remain in her husband's capital messuage forty days after his death, within which time her dower shall be assigned. The tenant of knight's fee, by military service, is bound to attend the king forty days, properly eqnipped for warfare. By privilege of parliament, members of the House of Commons are protected from arrest for forty days before the next ap pointed meeting. The acts for preventing the introduction of the plague direct that persons coming from infected places must remain on ship-board forty days before they be per mitted to land.—Customs of the Middle Ages. QUACKERY.—Quackery, like sin, is very ancient. It flourished in ancient Rome as well as in modern Europe. Nor does it depend for its prosp e rity on the ignorance of the uneducated classes. " The desire of wealth and health," says Pitt, " seems to put all understanding on a level ; the avaricious ate duped by every bubble—the lame and unhealthy by every quack." The faith of that singular compound of folly and knavery, the world, is kept up by peers, judges, and bishops, by clowns, operatives. and old women, who fur nish certificates to the value of nostrums, and testify in favour of imposture, delusion, and villany. Every material substance and medicament from the inert herb and common weed to simple water, having no properties beyond mere matter, have been at one period or other boasted up to the vain and empty nothingness of a great name, as the best remedy in the world for the inward bruises of all mankind. Indeed, each has possessed in turn the same reputution, and produced the same imputed benefits as a panacea for the cure of every disease under the sun; and their imaginary virtues have been witnessed and attested by persons from the throne to the garret. In this country the sale of quack medi c i nes has kept p ace w i t h th e " marc h of intellect. Forty years ago they yielded an annual revenue to the state of about £14,000. In 1841, the amount realised was £50,000. For the last half century English governments have looked upon this vile revenue as more valuable, in their judgment, th an the health of the people, the prosperity of the regular pro fession, and the improvement of phYsic• " They manage these things better in France." There the compositions of all the nostrums are divulged, compulsorily, to the Academy of Medicine ; after which a license is g iven f or the sale of them, if they are not injurious to the public health. The sale of hurtful nostrums is prohibited by penalties. As to other nostrums, the quack may sell — the d upe may buy—the government only interfering with " the liberty of the sub ject" (wh e th er th a t su bj ec t b e q uack or dupe) for the protec tion of life.—Ab r id ge d f rom a Paper by Dr. Forsbrooke of Chester.

" I never shall see thee more," as the mechanic said when he gave his week's wages to his wife. " 1 'll make every inquiry," as the lady's maid remarked when she peeped into the letter of her young mistress. " When I kiss, you pout," as the wasp said to the swollen lips of the cottage beauty. " This is dan gerous ground," as the fly observed of the treacle. " I 'Ol going on a visit to the Isle of Sky." as the smoke said when parting with the chimney top. " All commands executed with dispatch, and upon very reasonable terms," as the pub lic hangman added at the foot of his signboard. " This as sembly is forthwith dissolved," as the south wind said to the ice and snow. SAILED.—BeIIa Marina, Asbridge, for Batavia and Sourabaya British King, Bonyman, from New Orleans, at this port.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JULY 14 The demand for Cotton continues active, and a fair extent of business has been done yesterday to the amount of 4000 bales, and to-day about the same quantity, all to the trade. Holders are willing sellers, but the press of Cotton on the market is of a very inferior and rubbishy character. BIRMINGHAM CORN MARKET, JULY 13 During the present week, owing to the unexpected fall in Mark Lane, and favourable weather, we have had very little passing in the Corn trade. The little Wheat which has changed hands realised about the prices of last market day a some red French sold at es per 621bs. Barley nominally unaltered, with rather more enquiry for grinding parcels. Oats have been taken in retail at former prices. Nothing worth notice passing in Beans or Peas. SMITHFIELD CATTLE MARKET, JULY 11 The supplies this morning were various ; of Beasts ratber short than otherwise, but large of Sheep and Lambs than we have had to notice for some weeks past. Trade was generally better to-day, but more particulary in Mutton, not so much on account of any increase in the demand by butchers for slaughtering, but on ac count of a spirited demand for Sheep for keeping, which has an influence on the prices of Mutton. Beef of inferior quality, realized 2d per stone higher rates, say 3s 4d. The finest descrip tions of Veal recovered to ss. Lamb, for both inferior and finest young quality, improved 2d. In no other description of meat was there any alteration from Friday. Fewer head of Cattle than ordinary were turned out unsold. We cannot expect any material alteration in prices from the passing of the new tariff into opera tion until after this week. (Per stone of Bibs, sinking the ofial,) LONDON CORN EXCHANGE. JULY n The market was well supplied throughout the whole of last week with Grain of all descriptions, particularly of Foreign Wheat and Oats, we had also a good supply of the latter description of Corn from Ireland. The demand for fine qualities of English Wheat was tolerably brisk at prices rather above the quotations of last Mon day ; still, however, the disposition was to purchase only for im mediate wants, speculators remaining totally inactive. To this morning's market we received a large supply of Wheat from both Essex and Kent, added to which, the supply of Foreign last week being so abundant, the trade has declined from 2s to 3s per quarter, and at this reduction the sales were by no means brisk. In Barley we notice no alteration, good qualities meet a ready sale, but in ferior descriptions move off but slowly. Oats are in demand at last week's prices. Beans are more inquired after, but prices have undergone no alteration. White and Hog Peas are in limited de mand at the quotations of this day week. New Rape and New Carraway Seeds appeared at market, and realized, the former per last, and the latter 40s to 4!s per cwt. Other descriptions of seeds are more inquired after, and continue to reaiize full prices. WEDNKSDaY. July 13 Mrn: I TIDE TABLE Evn. Height. j Sundays, Holydays..te R. u. la. M. F. I.

The business is firm this morning at the prices of Monday, but a fan of 2s per quarter then took place in Wheat. The trade is this morning almost exclusively in Wheat and Oats, scarcely any English article being for sale. The duty on Wheat is Id per quarter, at which rate it is. convenient to liberate considerable quantities from bond. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, JULY 12 We continue pretty well supplied with Foreign Wheat, the imports of the week amounting to 14,270 qrs., about one half from the Baltic, and the remainder from France and the Mediterranean., There is also a good arrival of Flour from Canada and the United States, but the quantity of all articles both coastwise and from Ireland, as usual at this season, is light, and is in a great degree counterbalanced by the exports in those directions. Within the week ending Thursday last, duties were paid on 15,813 qrs. Foreign, 200 qrs. Canadian Wheat ; 5,143 barrels Foreign, 8,839 barrels Colonial Flour. Yesterday, a great quantity of rain having fallen, specula tive inquiries were a 4 ain excited, about 3000 barrels Flour, in bond, changing hands at 29s 6d to 30s, and one or two parcels of Wheat, under lock, as well as a cargo of Baltic floating, at fully previous rates • but although we had a good attendance of the town trade at this day's market, and several country buyers from a distance, the depres sion in London, and the improved appearance of the weather, checked the disposition to purchase freely, at the prices of this day week we had a tolerably fair, but by no means extensive demand for Wheats; the sales generally being effected for delivery after Friday next, at the antici pated reductionof duty. _ Good fresh Flour was in fair request, and Gd to is per bar rel dearer, but no further bonded transactions, either in this article or in Wheat, as reported to-day. Malt dull, and, to effect sales, rather cheaper. We repeat our last quotations for Oats and Oatmeal, for which there was a moderate demand for consumption. In other articles no variation.
