Voetrp. THE DYING GIRL TO HER MOTHER. BY JAMES STONEHOUSR. And I must die would not wish to feel life's winter blast; tutihus to fade when scarce the time of my young spring is past! To die !—then fare thee well, thou world! if such bath Hea ven will'd, Oh, mother!. ope thy blessed arms, and clasp thy drooping child. I feel that I am hast'ning fas', from earth and earthly toil; I feel my life is like a flame, that flickers o'er its oil; — Now burning with a subtle glow, and now with vivid fire, Till, lo! it hovers o'er the lamp, and then will swift expire. Dear mother! thou hest gone before to yonder starry dome, And thou bast fixed firmly there thiue everlasting home: -1--eseltrat fume reflected in the mirror of my mind— 'Tic made of lovely things of earth, with heav'uiy ones com bined. I see bright lands of verdure, where th' herbage never dies, Where flowers ev'ry moment spring, perfuming as they r ise; The glorious sunlight sets not there, no clouds eclipse his rays, His -beams are tempered by the breeze that sceutful ever plays. I see thee vrancring in the groves, with blessed spirits there, Whose deeds of' life like tlaine have been unblemished, good, and fair; I hear thee blending thy dear voice amid the tuneful throngs, I hear thee hymn with angels bright their ever-praiseful songs. Although to part from kindred ties the pang will .readful be, Yet, mother, I would rather dwell in th' happy land with thee, And winder ever by thy side, and mingle one fond pray'r, That those so dear to us of earth may all be with us there. This heart—this withered heart of mine, it once lov'd only one. But that bright dream of happiness like other dreams is gone : I dare not think of bygone time—l feel it would be sin ; Ob, mother, hadst thou read this heart, and known the love within. lot'd him rot as woman loves, with passion's burning zest, A pure and holy feeling dwelt within my girlish breast; But false was he!—the bitter pang is past and painless now; ?dine eyes are dun—my tears have long forgotten how to flow, But I must wean all thoughts like these, and smile upon my doom, Nor think it sad to fade and fill the dark and silent tomb ; The spirit freed will fly aloft—oh ! mother kind and mild, spread wide fur me your blessed arms, and clasp your dying child. THE FRIENDSHIP FLOWER. BY R. M. MILNES. (From "Poems of Many Years.") When first the Friendship-flower is planted Within the garden of your soul, Little of care or thought is wanted To guard its beauty fresh and whole; But when the one inOassioned age Has full revealed the magic bloom, A wise and holy tutelage Alone can shun the open tomb. It is not Absence you should dread; For Absence is the very air In which, if sound at root, the bead Shalt wave most wonderful and fair: With sympathies of joy and sorrow Feel, as with morn and even dews, Ideal colouring it may borrow Richer than ever earthly hues. But oft the plant, whose leaves nnsere Refresh the desert, hardly brooks The common-peopled atmosphere Of daily thoughts, and words, and looks; It trembles at the brushing wings Of many a careless fashion-fly, And strange suspicion aim their stings To taint it as they wanton by. Rare is the heart to bear a flower, That must not wholly fall and fade, Where alien feelings, hour by hour, Spring up, beset, and overshade ; Better, a child of care and toil, To glorify some needy spot, Than in a glad redundant soil To pine neglected and forgot. Yet when, at last, by human slight, On close of their permitted day, From the sweet world of life and light Such fine creations lapse away— Bury the relics that retain Sick odours of departed pride— Hoard as ye will your memory's gain, But let them perish where they died. LITEII.ARIC 7.ZOTICES. Blackwood's Magazine. September. "Christopher among the Mountains," with which this number opens, is a splendid article. Its descrip tive parts are truly sublime. The whole paper is a beau tifai specimen of the prose•poetry, for which Christo pher is so celebrated. "The Reciprocity and Colonial Systems" is a masterly essay on an important branch of political economy. It proves that, under the " re ciprocity" system, the trade with the Baltic has chiefly fallen into the hands of foreigners, and that, instead of having derived any commercial advantages, in return for our concessions, our trade is exposed to more vio lent and persevering hostility. The same paper af fords a convincing proof of the great value of our co lonial trade, which has been, for a ser►es of years, ra pidly on the increase. From the statements and cal culations contained in this article, we find that from 180'2 to 1835 the trade of Great Britain with Europe has dsclinsci from 65 per cent t.o 48 per cent; that with the British colonies in America it has increased from 18 to 2i) per cent; that with the United States of America it has increased from 6 to 9 per cent ; and that with India it has increased from 3t to 5 per cent. The interesting results which are given in this paper cannot fail to attract general attention. "Legendary Lore" is well written. The exposure of " Whig-Ra dical Corruption" is a tremendous infliction on our vir tuous ministry. We have transcribed a portion of this article into our paper of this day. The instruction which it affords respecting the unscrupulous mode in which the Whigs have exercised the►r patronage is highly valuable. "Letters of an Attaché" are ex tremely interesting. " Love and Geology" is a plea sant satire, and will afford a hearty laugh at the absur dities of modern philosophy. "The Sentiment of Fa mily Antiquity" is a curious paper. "The Alcestis of .Euripides" is a beautiful translation. Fraser's Magazine. September. This is a most interesting number. The first arti cle, a review of "The Life of Wilberforce," is cha racterised by great discrimination and candour. "Jack among the Lawyers" is one of the most humorous tales we ever read. It is absolutely worth the price of the whole magazine. We promise every one who reads it the enjoyment of a hearty guffaw. The re view of " Channing's Literary and Political Essays" is an elegant and classical production. " Whigs and Tories" is a splendid political essay, from an experi enced hand. The historical details with which it abounds render it a very interesting document. "The Birds of Aristophanes" is from the pen of a finished scholar. "The Religious Periodical Press" is an ex cellent article. We cordially concur in the observa tions which it offers on the religious newspapers of the 'clay, and shall endeavour to find room for the whole ar ticle in an early publication. " The Autobiography of the Hammersmith Ghost" is a piece of unmeaning nonsense. The " Specimens of Persian Poetry" will afford much pleasure to the lover of oriental imagery. "Little Men and Little Measures" contains a stinging attack upon the Earl of Durham. We recommend the paper on "The Conservative Policy, for 1838-9," to the attentive perusal of every lover of his country. Parbury's Oriental Herald and Colonial Intelligen car. September. This spirited periodical continues to rise in public •atimation. The admirable condensation of Indian sad Australian news which it presents, from month to month, cannot fail to recommend it to the notice and Nippon of all who are interested in those colonial ap .pendages of the British crown. In this number we have some excellent papers. " Indian Rulers and Mis rule's" contains some very strong animadversions on the government of India. The paper on "The Ap flicatton of British Capital to the Agricultural Re sources of India" embraces a subject of the highest importance, which well merits the serious attention of the British capitalist. " The Indian Army" is a sen sible paper on a topic of great moment. "The East India Voyager" contains some very pertinent observa tions on the medical service and its prospects. The account of the battle of " Seetabuldee" is well written. The general intelligence from our eastern possessions k distributed through an immense number of small 'paragraphs. The variety of this information is sur prising. The Sportsman. September. The illustrations to this number are, 4. H„k awav ' the winner of the Goodw ood Cu p for 1838, and the favourite for the Doncaster Cup, and "Perch Fish ipg;" which are both well engraved. The account of " Rarkays ay" will prove highly interestim at the p re _ sent moment. "The Recollections of a Grous e Shooter" are from the pen of a true sportsman. The "Observations on the English Systern'of Training, and Breeding," by an American, are entitled to the serious consideration of every one who is anxious for the im rorement of the British breed of horses. " Sporting Biography" contains some pleasing reminiscences of eminent sportsmen. The article on "Trout Fishing' is extracted from Blackwood. Of course it needs recommendation. " Racing in Kentucky" is extremely piquant. "The Angler's Experience—the Tlrout, an d how to catch him" is a capital piscatorial artice. The Miscellaneous sporting intelligence is as copious as usual. The Farmer's Magazine. September. This monthly journal of proceeding s affecting the i agricultural interest comprises the usual v ariet y of m- Portant intelligence. The mere enumeration of all the articles contained in the present number would suffic e to show the value and utility of this magazine. The illustrations this month are, an engraving of " Amato," the winner of the Derby for 1838, and a "Plan designed for a Farm of 400 Acres." The prin cipal papers are the following, which will well repay the trouble of perusal :—" On the Scientific Principles to be att en d e d to in the Preser% ation of Potatoes" — "Geology and Ag riculture"--"An Act to facilitate the Recovery of Possession of Tenements after due De termination of th e Tenancy "—" Manures"—" On Improvement in Agriculture"—" Improvements in Thrashing Machines"—" On deviating the Aboriginal Breed of Cattle"—" Flemish "Husbandry" —" The Sheep—lmprovement of Breeds"—" The Horse — Practice of Feeding"—" Comparative Merits of Rye Grass and Timothy Grass"—" Agricultural Reports" —and "A Review of the Corn Trade during the Month of August." La Belle Assemblee. September. The fair " editress" of this pleasing miscellany dis plays great taste in the selection of materials for the magazine under her control. The tales are particu larly interesting this month ; whilst the poetry is far above mediocrity. We are glad to find that the most scrupulous care is taken to exclude from the pages of La Belle Assemblee every thing which might be cal culated to offend the modest feelings of British " maids and matrons." It is just such a periodical as should obtain a place on the boudoir of the fair, The accom panying plates will be duly appreciated by all who are anxious to study " the fashions." The Village Magazine. No. 1. September. This elegant little magazine is designed' to supply our rural population with a store of useful and enter taining intelligence connected with literature, science, the fine arts, and general knowledge. It is very neatly got up, and is embellished by several excellent wood cuts. The following is an enumeration of the articles in the present number :—" The Renewal"—" Remi niscences of a Merchant's Clerk"—" Conisbrough Village and Castle"—" Harvest Sonnets"—" The Co ronation"—" Rural Life"—" Metropolitan Sketches" —" Records of a Rambler," &c. The whole of these articles are written in a superior style, and will afford much pleasure in the perusal. Politics are strictly excluded from the pages of the Village Magazine. We wish this new aspirant for popular favour every success. The New Statistical Account of Scotland. No. 19. August, 1838. \I re are glad to find that this important national work continues to be conducted with spirit. The pre sent number contains a well-executed map of the county of Wigton. The letter-press embraces an ample description of the remaining parishes of Perth shire, viz. :—Blackford, Muckhart, Prluthiil, Glendo. van, Trinity Gask, Balquhidder, Callander, Rhynd, Errol, Longforgan, Auchtergaven, Kenmore, Crieff, Fortingal, and Blair. Atholl. The information fur. niched respecting the topography,• natural history, geology, mineralogy, civil history, population, Bc.c. of these parishes is exceedingly copious, and evidently compiled with great care and industry. Every Scots man ought to support this publication, were it only on account of the benevolent purpose to which the profits resulting from its sale are appropriated. A General Outline of the Animal Kingdom. By Thomas Rymer Jones, F.Z.S., Professor of Com parative Anatomy in King's College, London. — Part I. Sept. 1838. London: John Van Voorst. From the prospectus of this work we learn that it is intended to comprise a general view of the animal creation, exhibiting the structure and internal eco nomy.of every class of living beings, and their adapta tion to the circumstances in which they are severally destined to exist. The work will be completed in ten or twelve monthly parts, which will be illustrated by two or three hundred drawings, executed under the immediate superintendence of the author. From the specimen before us we venture to say that this work will prove an invaluable acquisition to the zoologist. This number treats of Classification, Sponges, and Polyps. The illustrations are beautifully executed. Wilson's Historical, 7'raditionary, and Imaginative Tales of the Borders. Part 49. Edinburgh : Su therland. This pleasing series of tales is becoming more and more popular, as it well deserves to be. We should like to see it in every cottage in the land, north and south of the Tweed. The present number contains the following tales :—" Early Recollections of a Sun of the Hills,' "The Suicide's Grave," " Sketches from a Surgeon's Note-book," " The Rival Night caps," " Wanderings in the West," and " The Phy siognomist's Tale." Treatises on Various Subjects of Natural and Che mical Philosophy. By Sir John Leslie. Repub lished from the Encyclopaedia Britannica. Edin burgh: Adam and Charles Black. 1838. This delightful volume forms one of the series of republications from that sterling work, the Encyclo prEdia Britannica. The author's name is a sufficient guarantee for the value of the essays of which it is composed. Prefixed to the work is an interesting biographical memoir of the author. The subjects treated of are the following :—Achrcimatic Glasses, Acoustics, Aeronautics, Barometer, Barometrical Measurements, Climate, Cold and Congelation, Dew, and Meteorology. All these topics are handled with consummate ability. To the lover of natural philo sophy these treatises will prove a very rich treat. The diagrams and plates by which the volume is illustrated are beautifully executed. Both One in Christ, or the Middle Wall of Partition taken away. By Alfred Moritz Myers (a Converted Jew). London : Seeleys. Liverpool : Perris. We have been greatly interested in the perusal of this volume. It contains a minute description of the present state and customs of the Jews, illusaated in a sketch of the life and conversion of the Thor, the particulars of which are detailed with great fidelity and simplicity. The narrative evidently bears the impress of truth and sincerity. The author proves from the oracles of the Old Testament, as well as from the ancient rabbinical writings, the doctrines of the Trinity in Unity, and the Incarnation and Atonement of onr Saviour. We cordially recommend this volume as an antidote to the fatal poison of Socinianism and Unitarianism. The accessory evidence which it fur- nishes from the Jewish writings in favour of the above doctrines, is extremely valuable. The annexed appeal to the Christian public on behalf of the " lost sheep of the House of Israel" merits the serious attention of British Christians. We wish the work an extended' circulation. It is calculated to do much good. Letters from Madeira. By John Driver. London : Longman and Co. Liverpool : Cannell. 1838. These letters are from the pen of a respected towns man, who resided for some time in Madeira for the benefit of his health. They contain a brief history of Madeira up to the present year, with a description of its climate, scenery, wines, and other natural produc tions. They are written in an easy style, and convey much important information. To invalids intending to resort to "fair Madeira's purple coast," this volume will prove an acceptable vade mecum. CONTEMPORARY PRESS. THE CORPORATION NUISANCE. (Pont the Manchester Courier.) Another week has passed over, and the charter of ncorporation has not arrived ! What is the reason ? Is it intended that it shall not come into operation this year? or is intended that it shall not come into opera tion at all ? We have heard, indeed, that the delay in forwarding it is occasioned by the absence from town of some of the Whig officials, and that it may still be expected in the course of a few days. We believe, however, that come when it may, it will now come too late for the election of corporation officers for the pre sent year. By the act of the sth and 6th of the late King it is enacted, that the overseers shall, on the sth day of September in every year, make out an alpha betical list, to be called "The Burgess List," of all persons entitled to be enrolled in that year; and shall deliver the same "on the said fifth day of September," to the town-clerk, or to the person executing the du ties of town-clerk, who shall cause the same to be fixed on the door of the Town-hall, or other -conspicuous situation. Of course, as no authority for making out a burgess list has been received, none has been pre pared ; and there is no provision, that we are aware of, in that or any later act, to give validity to a list made subsequently to the time specified. It is not, how ever, upon such objections that we rely. To postpone the operation of the nuisance for a year would be something; but we believe that it will be successfully opposed, on the higher ground of objection, that a charter granted otherwise than on the petition of the major part of the inhabitants, cannot be maintained. On this ground, fortified by some of the highest legal opinions in the country, the opponents of incorporation take their stand; and they look forward with such con fidence to the issue, that they regard without alarm the exertions of their opponents to obtain a preponderat ing influence in the council: We hear a good deal of these exertions; but from all that we can learn, the persons selected to be put in nomination at the elec tion of councillors, are all violent part i za ns ; so little disposed are the procorporatori to conduct the inunici pal affairs of the town upon the Guardian's pr inci p le of " oblivion of political feeling." We dre glad to find that it is the determination of the con servative party generally to abstain from all interference in the elections, whilst the legality of the charter is in dis pute. This is evidently the wisest and m ost becomin g course they can adopt under the circum stances ; and f they may rest assured the conservative cause will lose ' nothing by it in the end. no —.......i............... Major Mackie, K. 11., has been appointed governor of the British settlements on the Gambia, in the roonyof the late G. Kendall, Esq. Lord Melbourne's economical mode of living offers an ex ample to all servants on board wages to pocket the one and live from their employers' pantry besides. London is now as empty as it is generally said to be at this season of the year; but even ,hen said to be "quite empty" it contains more inhabitants than any other capital in Europe. DISEASED PARTRIDGES.—If it is true, as stated in the Brighton Gazette, that there is a fatal disease among the par tridges, it will make the Brightonians very shy of buying them. THII FATAL DUEL.—In Vaux's "Rambles of the Pyre nees" there is a description of a . dinner party at St. Sebastian, last September, to the following effect :—" On the removal of the cloth, a row of blushing decanfers was ranged before the president, a young officer who was that eveving unani mously voted to the chair, from his felicitous p e culiarity in guarding the guests against empty glasses, and maintaininz. at the same time, a constant flow of original merriment; and certainly never did president more ably discharge his duties." The president, on this occasion, was Mr. Eliot, tben a lieu tenant of Lancers in the Legion, the survivor in this duel. At the same time there were two of f icers in St. Sebastian, who were limping about on crutches, from the effects of wounds received in duel with the same , Mr. Eliot. 1.1110111111 WHIG•RADICAL CORRUPTION ( From Blackwood's Magazine for September.) In closing this article (on the influence of the Crown,) it ought not to be omitted that when we say the influence of the crown is increased, it by no means follows that the influence of the throne is equally augmented; indeed, it may be di rectly the reverse. A minister, especially if he has been long in office, may have so engaged and corrupted the great pro prietors of boroughs; may have so distributed honours, and ribbons, and offices; may have so obliged the principal members of the House of Commons by providing for their principal friends and relations in the Customs, the Excise, or the colonies; may have so fettered every public man of weight and influence by the lies of private interest, that at last they shall be able to say to their Sovereign, "however pernicious our measures may be, and howeverimpopular our persons, you must maintain us in power, for we alone can command a majority in the House of Commons, though our conduct and our acts are offensive to the country, and dis gusting to your Majesty."—Lord John Russell's Essay on the English Government and Constitution. London : 1823. Page 427. A history of the whig party since the famous coalition be tween Mr. Fox and Lord North would be one of the most amusing productions in the whole catalogue of English poli tical narratives. In days of yore, when Mr. Pitt, long be fore the commencement of the French war, endeavoured to increase the trade with France, how loudly did Mr. Fox de clare that country "the natural ' enemy" of England ! When Mr. Pitt went on in the execution of his plans of economi cal reform, how boldly did the whigs attack him, and how mournfully they lamented the sad decay of ministerial pa tronage, and the abolition of private jobbing in the public loans! When Mr. Pitt was, in his early days, a reformer, Mr. Fox, Lord Rockingham, Mr. Burke, and many more, openly stood up not only against "the bill and the whole bill," but against even the slightest amendment of the repre sentative system. More recently the whig friends of liberty bailed joyfully the despotism of Napoleon, and ridiculed the absurd attempts of the Duke of Wellington to emancipate degraded Spain ; and more lately stilt Lord John Russell, Lord Melbourne, Lord Palmerston, Lord Glenelg, and a majority of the rest of the present cabinet, denounced nearly every single measure—whether of church spolia tion or Irish "justice"—which they have subsequently been the instruments of carrying through parliament. — Honest Lord Aithorpe once cendidly avowed, when pressed to repeal the house and window taxes. that he could not do so as a minister, though for party purposes he had endeavour. ed to do so while in opposition. We need not, then, niarve to find that the men who now rule this country are quite uu' scrupulous as to consistency, and quite deprived of at: power of recollecting their past opinious and proceedings. For in stance, if Lord Althorn could thus factiously act, we cannot be surprised to find that the extravagant whigs of 1806 be came, a dozen years arterwards, when the loaves and fishes were in other hands, great sticklers for economy ; nor can we wonder if again these rigid economists cf twenty years back, have become the authors of corruption and the humble imitators of Walpole's extensive profligacy. -But if at these things there be little cause to wonder, it must be owned that the conservatives have some right to complain of them, when it is remembered that all the odium heaped upon the Duke of Wellington's government during the reform mania was nothing but the artful hypocrisy of designing men pretending to a purity they never intended to practice. It is to be hoped that the people now know how complete the delusion was under which they then acted. It is high time that honest men should acknowledge that the reform bill was intended for nothing but securing the suprematyof the whip; oligarchy, and that the clamour about tory corruption was designed for nothing but to blind the people while . the hungry tribe, of whig.radicals fattened on the hard-won money of the poor. If, however, this acknowledgment be stilt withheld, we will un dertake to extort it from every man who seeks only the ascer tainment of the truth; we undertake to prove that, under the *shies since 1830, patronage has been more increased and more scandalously abused, and that the public money has been more lavishly and suspiciously squandered, than at any period during the past 50 years. Of course we do not mean to commence a crusade, like the Radicals, on the prerogatives of the crown, or to picture in exaggerated colours the influence and corruptions of the court. We leave these themes to others, confining ourselves to the point contained in our extract from Lord John lius sell's book, namely, the aggrandisement of ministerial power as distinguished from, or, perhaps. opposed to, the just au thority. and influence of the sovereign. It will be no difficult matter to show that the whigs have struggled for an imperium in imperio, and that they have recently, as ofttitnes they did a hundred years ago, endeavoured to close round the mo narch on every side, so that neither the wishes of the peopl e, nor the advice of the ablest statesmen, cats find access or 'acceptance. Lord Chatham 'first struck down this great conspiracy,' and trampled on the Newcastles and the other "great Whig families" then dominant in the country. His illustrious son struck the second blow after the notorious India Bill; and from that time till 18.30 the whig party tan , guished in distress, and crippled by the lasting operation of merited popular distrust. But from 1830 till the present time no effort or no energy has been spared to consolidate the faction's strength ; no exertion or display of ingenuity has been wanting; no scruples have stood in the way. In 18.3.1 so much success had attended this system, that when the late King dismissed his first Melbourne ministry, the whigs resolved on revenge, and determined to force them selves back into his council. This, also, will be no matter of surprise when we have accomplished the proof we have un• dertaken of the augmented corruption of the present mi. nisters. In 1822 Lord Brougham brought forward io the House of Commons a resolution to the following effect :—" That the influence now possessed by the crown is unnecessary for main taining its constitutional prerogatives, destructive of the in dependence of parliament, and inconsistent with the well go vernment of the realm." It was alleged, in support of this resolution, that there were then 87 placemen in the House of Commons; but in order to make up that number there were included all King's Ser,jeants and King's Couucil, and others holding honorary offices on both sides of the house, so that, in fact, the real number of placemen directly or indirectly under the influence of the crown, or in receipt of pay, was re duced to 47 Now, without further preface, we will enumer ate the persons in the House of Commons—the reformed House of' Commons—who are similarly situated at present, mentioning only those in the actual receipt of salaries, and under the direct influence and command of the adiniuistra thin : Sir Charles Adam, Lord of the Adnairalts. • Sir George Anson, Surveyor General of the Ordnance. Colonel Anson, Storekeeper of the Ordnance. Nicholas Ball, Attorney General of Ireland. • Francis F. Baring, Secretary to the Treasury. G. C. Berkeley, Lord of the Admiralt y . C.

Lord Palmerston, Foreign Secretary, John Parker, Lord of the Treasury. Sir H. Parnell, Paymaster General. Captain Pechell, Equerry to the Queen. Spring Rice, Chancellor of the Exchequer. Henry Rice, Equerry to the Queen. Sir Robert Rolfe, Solicitor General. Lord John Russell, Secretary for the Home Depertment, T Lord Seymour, Lord of the -reasury. Richard Sheil, Commissioner of Greenwich Hospital. Hon. R. J. Smith, Lord of the Treasury. Robert Vernon Smith, Secretary to the Bored of Contra Edward John Stanelv, Secretary of the Treasury. Doctor Stock, Judge of Irish Adcairality Court. J. C. F. Strangways, Under Secretary of Foreign Depar men t. Robert Steuart, Lord of the Treasury Earl of Surrey, Treasurer of the Household. C. P. Thomson, President of the Board of Trade Sir E. Troubridge, Lord of the Admiralty. Sir Richard H. Vivian, Master General of the Ordnance Major Vivian, Aid-de-camp to ditto. Charles Wood, Secretary to the Admiralty. Here then are 50, exclusive of the minor commissioners as Mr. Wrightson, Mr. Duckworth, Mr. Mottle, &c.; and of persons who have held o ffi ces, as Sir Edward Codrington, Sir Charles Grey, &c , though at present unemployed. But still these are by no means all who have felt the benefit of government patronage in these days of purity and terming and, therefore, we will proceed to name a few more wiR hive solid reasons for voting black and white to keep Whig- Radicals in office. The following members have been se lected for honourable notice in the different modes we have mentioned R. M. Bellew, ,created a Baronet. E. L. Bulwer, ditto. J., R. Carnac, ditto. S. Crompton, ditto. J. Duke, Knighted. J. Dunlop, created a Baronet. J. Ewards, ditto. Lotti Dundee, gazetted Lord Lieutenant of the North Riding. J. Guest, created a Baronet. R.

Philips, created a Baronet. D. Roche, ditto. • J. Seale, ditto. Matthew Wood, ditto. E. De Lacy Evans, made a K. C. B. Again the following members have retired from Paula ment and received their reward for past services. Some have kindly resigned their seats to make way for others—a Lord John Russell or a Palmerston for instance—and have in re turn aeceived a suitable acknowledgment of their magnani mous self-denial. Mr. Stewart Mackenzie, appointed Governor of Ceylon. Mr. Hanbury, Tracy, elevated to the peerage. Mr. Tracy Leigh, gazetted Lord Lieutenant of Monmouth shire. Mr. Carew, elevated to the peerage. Sergeant Wolfe. Chief Baron of Exchequer in Ireland. Mr. Western, elevated to the peerage. Sir J. Wrottesley, ditto. Mr. Hanbury Bateman, ditto. Mr. Methuen, ditto. Mr. Ponsonby, ditto.

Brady, Solicitor-General of Ireland. Mr. Crompton, Judge in Ireland. Mr. Perrin, Baron of the Exchequer in Ireland. Mr. Blamire, appointed Tithe Commissioner for England. Mr. D. Browne, elevated to the Irish peerage. Mr. Lefevre, appointed Poor-Law Commissioner. Colonel Fox, appointed Cierk of the Ordnance. Sir John Newport, appointed Controllerof the Exchequer. Admiral Elliot, appointed Admiral on African Station. Of.this tribe we could easily discover dozens more, but it is unnecessary; the specimens above will show that many a pure and patriotic member of the House of Commons, who has not hitherto deigned to take place or pay, may neverthe less have some pleasures of hope to console him for his rigid independence. Others who have nothing given to theist selves, who probably also - expect nothing, are sufficiently enchained to the ministry by the employments or honours •;:.- enjoyed by their relatives. At the risk of fatiguing our readers, we subjoin a few of these gentlemen, with a desig nation of their mode of indirect dependence on the go vernment. Lord Acheson.—His father created an English peer by the whigs. Mr. Baines.—His son made recorder of Hull. Mr. H. Berkeley, brother to a Lord of the Admiralty, and to a new whig peer. Mr. C. Berkeley, ditto. Lord Brabazon.—H is father created a peer by the whigs. Lord Clements, ditto. Mr. Ponsonby, ditto. Lord Duncan.—His father created an earl by the whigs. Lord Dundas, ditto. Hon.

Besides these individuals, a more diligent search would discover fully fifty more whose relatives have potent motives for supporting whig-radical government. Many members have suns in the navy, and a glance at the navy4ist will show how these gentlemen prosper; others have connexions in the army, and even there they are not quite unheeded.* Some have brothers or cousins in the.church, and if so, stray deaneries or bishopricks may fall to their lot, as they did to Dr, Denison, Bishop of Salisbury, Dr. Stanley, of Norwich and Dr. Howard, Dean of Lichfield, who were well repre, sented in parliament ; like Dr. Lon ;ley, Bishop of Ripon, brother-in-law of Sir Henry Yarnell; Dr. Allen, Bishop of Ely, tutor of Lord Althorp; and Dr. Otter, Bishop of Chichester, the father-in-law of a liberal member for Derby, Other members may happen to have friends in the colonies. or relations who have no peculiar dislike to visiting remote settlements. If so, dozens of places are constantly to be had inevery quarter of the globe. There 'is something good ready for every one who wants; just as the child's game of "open your mouth, and shut your eyes, and see what God will send you." But certainly the shutting the eyes is the main point in the whig proceeding. With such lists before them as we have produced, how does it happen that no jealous whig opponent of the influence of the crown now makes a motion like Lord Brougham's? There is more provocation than ever, more corruption, and there are more, placemeu iu parliament. But, in truth, the influence of the whig radical faction. We find among the votes of the current year charges which clearly denote the creation of a very large number of new places throughout the country. In Ireland there is a charge of £66,700 for the expenses of criminal prosecutions, the chief part of which goes in the payment of salaries, and not a small number of those entirely new ones. In England there is an item of £54,000 a-year for poor law commissioners, all of which is spent in the payment of newly-created officers. Further OD, we find £14,700 a-year for slave commissioners, who enjoy almost absolute sinecures; £9055 a-year for new superin tendents of factories; £6,000 for new inspectors of prisons ; £5,000 a-year for the steam navigation from Egypt to In dia;. £5,1110 for the criminal law commissioners; £4,213 for the record commissioners; £4,000 for the Scotch church commission ; £2,500 for the ecclesiastieal oimmission ; £4OlO for the hand-loom weavers' commission.; £7OO for.the Irish chaaity commission ; £7,000 for the Irish boundary survey; and £12,700 for the Irish railway commission. All these charges are entirely new, and all, with very- many more that might be named, go to the payment of new place men. We find an annual grant in the estimates of this year of £50,000 for the purposes of the Irish Board of Education; in 1836, the sum toted was only £35,000. Another charge of a peculiar nature is £13,000 for law expenses, a hich appear to have increased £3OOO in a single year ; while Lord Palmerston's official charge is an increase of £lO,OOO on the charge of two years back. The expenses • of Canada are increased exactly 1;500,000, while the grant to the church in that colony is reduced by about three thousand pounds. Some of the usual miscellaneous estimates against which the whigs used formerly most loudly to protest, are • now under their superintendence .raised to au extraordinary height. The consular department for 1838, is £107,993; the repairs of. palaces, gardens, and public buildings, £74,986; the convict establishment in New South Wales £235,000; the charge for printing, £197,796. - Many other charges .to which Mr.: Hume and-the rest of the :whig-radicals used to object altogether, are continued by the present ministers, contrary to their repeated professions and promises. -What has induced them of late to acknowledge the propiety of it grant of £35,909 a-year for secret service money; and what has caused theit opposition to cease to that large vote ot nearly £70,000 a-year to Irish charities •which the much abused tories used regularly to obtain ? These iniscellaneout estimates have been rapidly on the increase from - the day Lord'Melbourne came into office, and have placed immense means in the hands of the ministry for cm rapt purposes. They have increased, because the influence and patronage of the government has been widely extended under all sorts of pretences, and in every possible direction. In the colonial department Lord Glenelg has the patronage derived froin the new magisterial system in the West Indies to which .f.:6900 is annu a lly voted; he has the appointment of the managers of the £3.1,000 a year voted for negro edu cation; the patronage of a few snug foreign jobs like the Malta commission; the appointment of the new chaplains .and schoolmasters to New South Wales and Canada ; the appointment of placemen in all new settlements, as South Australia, Graham's Town, New• Zealand, &c., the manage ment of the emigrant agencies, for which parliament votes nearly, £2OOO a year, and the patronage of the whole esta blishment at St. Helena, which the government of this country has recently taken from the hands of the East India Company. All this patronage is new, and now for the first time enjoyed by a colonial secretary, in addition to the pa tronage of the West Indies, Canada, New South Wales, and all our other colonies as before. At home the whigs have had an increase of patronage to an immense extent from their factory, poor-law, municipal corporations, registration, tithe, prisons,lndia charter, bank ruptcy, imprisonment for debt, Irish constabulary, Irish poor law, criminal court, and real property acts. The system of centralization has been carried out to a very great extent, and at every step of its progress fresh patronage has been thrown into the hands of the government. In Ireland espe cially, jobbing of the grossest description has been carried on, and in all parts of the United Kingdom money has been squandered on commissions of heterogeneous characters. Not content with his share of this patronage, the Marquis of Normanbv has thought proper to assume the office of ap pointing the sheriffs at his own discretion, in direct contra vention of the law. Revising barristers, commissioners, either handloom or educational, or ecclesiastical, or munici pal, or boundary; inspectors of prisons; superintendents of factories; assistant poor-law commissioners; registrars of marriages and deaths; paid-recorders, official assignees, now appear in every corner of the country, and increase and mul tiply with alarming rapadity. Next year we are to have a rural constabulary force, with some thousands of new places, and, if possible, a new mode of managing counties, and a complete tribe ot stipendiary magistrates. So numerous in deed are the placemen in these pure, no-patronage days, that as Mr. Sydney Smith sagely declares, the onus of proving he is not one now rests upon every honest man; and seri ously, this is not so very much exaggerated, when it is consi dered that, in addition to all these new places, the customs and excise still reirain with their 16.1;00 places. In olden times, ministries were quite content with these sources of pa tronage, and with - the army, navy, and colonies; but now Risings are quite altered; commissions, and all the other new places we have named,:.have sprung up to keep these liberal and enlightened reformers in office. At the present-moment our army is larger than it has beeu fur years; our navy em ployed is very much augmented, and yet neither nor both satisfy the whig-radicals ; they go on creating place after dace, and with - a sinking revenue increasing considerably .he public expenditure.

Co!vile, Esq. haring applied by notice to the Lord Chancellor for an injunction against the North Midland Railway Company, to ;:top the proceedings of their works through his land in Duffield, the case was heard at the Chancellor's private residence at Wim bledon yesterday, which motion *as dismissed with costs.-- Derby Mercury. IMPRISONMENT FOR SMALL DEIITS.—IO the discussion which has taken place dining the last few years, upon impri sonment for debt, there is one part of the subject which, comparatively, has met with little attention, though on the score of humanity, at least, it demanded attention as much as the harsh and impolitic system of imprisonment upon mesne process. I allude to imprisonment by summary execution for small debts proved in local courts, for their recovery ; and I am speaking more especially of the practice in the country, where I have had more opportunities of observing it than in London. I will illustrate it by one of a class of cases, of which scores fell under my cognisance in my own neighbourhood. A poor artisan (say a cobbler) gets behind hand with his bakei, shopkeeper, or leather-cutter; the diffi culty of getting out of debt is always proportionate to the facility of getting into it; and the ultinact ratio is to summons him to a Court of Requests, perhaps ten miles distant from his home. The commissioners of the court are uniformly persons in trade, and therefore not very patient of this petty sort of insolvency; the debt is, of course, taken for granted • on the part of the plaintiff, and execution is instantly recorded against the defendant. A little time is occasionally given; if the debtor can turn himself in that time well for him ; but if not, he is taken away to a house of correction, perhaps 20 miles off, and here . the law (" the perfection of reason") begins its process of retribution. By a sort of legislative arithmetic, for each shilling of the debt and costs the debtor is to suffer one day's durance ; and as these courts reach, all debts under £5, there maybe 99 days for the debt, besid 4 l 6 or 17 more for the costs. The term, therefore, of his impri sonment may extend to 17 meeks, which is just one month more than he would be sentenced to for poaching or petty larceny. Nor is his treatment one jot better than these his compeers in crime—the poacher and the thief ; for I suppose that debt, from its punishment, must be a crime also. Like them, at four o'clock on bitter winter evenings he is locked pin a cold solitary cell until eight in the morning. Like them he is restricted to so many pounds of bread, so many of potatoes, Sec. per week. Like them. he is debarred from, tb visits of his family' and friends; and nothing, not even a clean shirt, can retch him; nay, not even a letter from his wife, unless first open and inspected by the keeper. Indeed he is by all the rationale of punishment a felon ; a truly Roman construction of the word debtor to be sure; but, in this age, is it consonant with our ideas of justice, or, in a social point of view, proper Or politic ? Will the new bill remedy this evil? If it does, the extent of the evil still deserves thus recording; and if it dues not, the advocates of humanity and common sense have still something to do. — Correspondent of the Morning Herald. :.i . -i,:_. , i..: . 1 . ..:,;:.; . 7. - ,..;: . .'4:: : . :.,H:',::;..,.: -. :„ . ...: H ,.i':: . bippmg FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 7,—Wind E.N.E.

The market has been influenced by the unfavour able accounts of the growing crop, received by the "UreatW es tern," and rather higher prices have been obtained.
