Immediately after. he (Lord Monteagle) returned to the entrance of the "se, and inquired of the police-constable on duty whether stay to o led a requA - 1 a person give ficer repliec upon which he directed the policeman to endeavour to find the individual and bring him back. The policeman tried for some time, but was unsuccessful. He (Lord Nlonteagle) consequently retained possession of the note and the letter till plaintiff applied for an answer. Being then desirous to ascertain whether the writer had of fended against the laws in ignorance he g‘ anted him an in -view, when finding that his knowledge of such matters -h superior to that of the lower orders in general, he referred plaintiff to the Lords of the Treasury, and sent his letter and the enclosure to their lordships, who, after some consideration, determined, although a very bad case, tha' they wou' n the affirmat was muc d not indict the writer, Cut resolved on paying the ;E5 note into the Bank of England to the credit of the Ex- Ice money, which was accordingly done Luber 1810.

The girl's character was not got ; she had taken some table linen from her mistress, but promised amendment and was forgiven. As soon as her f ither was apprised of what had day or two was found dead in a plantation, with his head al most severed from his body, and in his right hand a knife covered with blood. His age was 53. Two of his sons have been transported for aggravated crimes. LAMENTABLE CATASTROPHE.—It is with feelings of un feigned sorrow we announce the death yesterday evening, by a mournful accident, of Mr. William Hunt. Jun., of the firm of Hunt and Son, solicitors, Stourbridge, and Under-Sheriff It seems that the deceased was proceeding 5 o'clock, to dine at the Birches, the re s horse shied and reared which be met in the sidence of Mr. George at a coal cart Worcestershir .e, when h , 3 Mr. Bat ne, and the girths at the same time break a to the ground uneer the wheel of the cart, passing over his head, killed scattere Mr. Hunt, we b, Herald. anner over the road. —Worcester .eve, was about 30 years of SINGULA Goon Fo T of the circumstanc I of H now turns ou es, and very sh RTUNE.—A THRIFTY WIFE,—An me:3f John Dean, residing in the Hill, has recently experienced u of fortune, under rather extraordinary It appears that John bad been blessed (as it with a remarkably saving and frugal wife : disposition to save, that John was generally 'rids to be in rather indigent cireumstan- A few days ago, however -a were enterta: 'd of 1- of money . of her .

THE MONOMANIAC MUSEUM or two back that Stephenson. whn h 3 —We mentioned a week lipf...t.o.—is s traffer the ,tieen and Sir K. reel, gave great opposition in Bedlam to the efforts of the attendants in that establishment to remove the hair which almost covered his face. We can now state that no doubt whatever exists as to this poor man's insanity. Him hostility to the Queen and her Minister have merged in a rage for learning the Greek language ; and he fancies him self destined to be the greatest Greek scholar the world ever saw. He has somehow contrived to pick up about half the Greek alphabet, and this he relies upon as evidence of what his future eminence will be if he be furnished with the means of pursuing his studies. M'Naugbton still continues to occupy an apartment on the ground floor gallery, and still continues to impress his attendants with the full conviction of his sanity. He wears his own clothes, and not the hos pital dress, and the practice is to permit any of the inmates who can provide clothes of their own they may wear them. M'Naughton has not yet been permitted to see any of his friends, the rule being that for the first month after their admission no persons are allowed to communicate with the inmates. Oxford also wears his own clothes, which are sup plied to him by his friends, and he evinces a great desire to have a smart appearance on the days on which visitors are admitted, but on other days he not unfrequently indulges in the low slang of a common London scamp. For the special information of the monomaniacs we can state that Oxford is heartily tired of his incarceration already, and frequently expresses his regret that be had not been either hanged or transported, as punishments far preferable to imprisonment for life. He constantly recommends hanging as the most effectual preventive of the modern monomania. No books are allowed to the inmates but such as have undergone the -nection of the house surgeon or steward of the hospital.

CHARGE OF MURDER. -At the London Central Criminal Court, on Saturday, James Dawson, aged 27, a sailor, was indicted, for that he on the 26th of August last, being a sub ject of our Sovereign Lady the Queen, at Zanzibar, a place out of her Majesty's dominions, upon a perso❑ whose name is unknown, with a certain knife which hp ►,,,,, • hand, d _ . ..... nu new In his right feloniously make an assault, and him upon his head, neck, breast, sides, back, &c., did feloniously stab and wound, of which said stabs and wounds he then and there died,against the peace of our sa id L a d y the Queen, &c. After the examination of the witnesses, Mr. Justice Cress .... w ell, in summing up, said the case before them was on of pa ramount importance, and involved for their consideration two material questions; first, was an Arab or any unknown per son killed on the nicht in question, and if so, was he killed by the prisoner? Now, the only evidence of any death hav ing taken place was the admission of the prisoner himself, - Mated that he had killed a man, who was attempting to 'nd the fact of the body of witness House, who, ith huff Now, it certainly was very strange indeed nunication had been made to the Consul, no ps whatever had been taken to look after the body of th •son supposed to have been murdered. If they were satis i that a person had been killed, then would arise the im ,t question, was he killed by so, under what circumstance ,e hand of the prisoner ? Now the statement of n 1 the t h e prisoner was, that be had kill e d th e man i n d e f end i ng e lf from an attack o f a na t ure w hi c h cou ld not be mis- In derstood, and it that wa s t rue b e was un d ou b tedly justi ied in so do u with c ite a .c.Ol f 0 i ng, for, by th e l aw o f E ng l an d , if a criminal as "s made upon a female, she wou ld b e justified, in de her chastity, in killing h er assa il ant ; so a l so was it an. If, therefore, they were of opi n i on th e pr i soner lid k manin defending himself against an assault of ' uch a nature , the y w ere bound to acquit him. The jury al immediately acquitted th e p r i soner . aost E X TILAORDINARY CASE. — Benjamin Thomas was charge it the Clerkenwell Police-office, on Saturday, with felon is l y a ppropriating a considerable sum of money, the prc y of Henry Tufnell, Esq., M.

FATAL ACCIDENT.—During the sailing of a yacht down the Thames on Saturday last, the tiller struck a sailor of the name of Freeman and chucked him overboard, and he was drowned. On Thursday last, a gentleman named Robert Turner, of Shuttleworth Hall, near Preston, was drowned in the Ribble. It is supposed he was attempting to cross a ford of the river, ind either missed it or was overborne by the quantity of water in the river. REPRESENTATION OF EAST SUFFOLK,—Lord Rendle :ham has issued an address as conservative candidate for East Suffolk, i❑ consequence of the death of Sir C. Broke Were ; and IVIr. Shafto. Adair, a whig, who contested the eastern division of Suffolk in 1841, is also in the field. THE TEA TRADE, April 10.--The news by the overland mail has had no particular effect on the market, although in consequence of the delay likely to arise in fixing the duties, ,hippers were expected to buy and despatch their cargoes without further delay. The deliveries last week were 494,810. CURIOSITY FROM CHINA.—The museum of the United Service Institution, London, has been enriched by the addi. don of the identical cage in which Mrs. Noble was for six weeks confined. It is roughly made of thick bars of wood, and is so small that the unfortunate captive must have re mained during the whole time in a crouching position. The appointment of Captain Fitzroy to the governorship of New Zealand has left a vacancy for his post in the Trinity House. Forty-eight candidates have, we are told, already declared themselves, of whom some four or five only are naval officers. Among the naval candidates are Captains Jenkin Jones, De Roos, Beechey, and Popplewell.—United Service Gazette. SIR ROBERT SALE.—The government have just given Sir Robert Sale a very handsome sabre, with a gold-ernbroidereu belt studded with pearls and emeralds; the blade valued al £lOO, the handle of ivory, a small delicate tassel with a string of pearls at the end. The civilians have clubbed £1 each for the purpose of presenting Sale with another sword, which is intended to be very handsome. A few days ago, one of the gamekeepers at Hardwick, having discovered that the farm buildings belonging to the hall was infested with rats, laid a trap, called a box trap. On examining the trap the following morning, he, to hit , amazement, found that it contained no less than six largt rats, who had actually worried each other to death ; not one remained alive. BILLS OF LADING.—The following notice has been issued by order of the Commissioners of Stamps, to shippers ano masters of vessels :—" Take notice, that by the act of par liament of the sth and 6th Victoria, cap. 79, a stamp duty of sixpence is imposed upon every bill of lading of goods to be exported or conveyed coastwise; and by the same statute, a penalty of £5O is imposed upo❑ any person who shall make or sign any bill of lading which shall be written or printed upon paper not duly stamped with the duty aforesaid. Ea, li bill of a set is liable to the duty mentioned. N.B.—No bill of lading can be stamped after it is signed. HORRORS OF TRANSPORTATION.—The Geelong Adver tiser (Port Philip,) of Oct. 24th contains a report of the trial of John Maloney, for the murder of his master, John Francis, of Woodlands, in the district of Geelong. The crime wa, clearly proved against the prisoner ; who, when asked why sentence of death should not be passed upon him, said, " do not wish to lice in this country at all. I don't care. had as soon die as live here. The dogs were upon me when I struck him ; and I thank God that I am sentenced to death." The awful sentence of the law was then passed upon the prisoner, who was removed from the bar apparently quite indifferent to his situation. DURHAM ELECTION.—After the return of Lord Dungan non for this city, Mr. Bright, his opponent, delivered from the balcony of Thwaite's Inn a most inflammatory speech, the effect of which was immediately exemplified in an attach upon Lord Dungannon. As the noble lord was passing up Elvet Bridge, in company with two friends, on their way to his lordship's Ic dgings, he was hooted and pelted with mud and stones, by a number of young miscreants, encouraged by others of riper years. One of the stones struck his lordship on the back part of the head, and severely stunned him : the individual who threw it, a lad of about 16 years of age, was discovered and apprehended, and it is hoped will be made an example of.—Durham Advertiser. SCOTCH CHURCH.-Dr. Candlish has in a letter disclosed the terms on which his party are disposed to treat for a settlement of the Scotch Church question. He says that with reference to the settlement of ministers, the following principles must be fully and unequivocally admitted. " Ist. — That the mere opposition of the congregation (upon their simple averment that the settlement of the person proposed would not be for the edification of themselves, their families, or the congregation) may be held by the church as in itself a sufficient reason for rejecting a minister. 2nd.—That in carrying out that principle, by whatever form of procedure, there shall be full and effective security to the church courts against the interference of the civil courts." OUTLAWRY AT BRIGHTON.—A novel occurrence took place on aunday morning in the parish churchyard, just as the congregation were leaving the church. Previously to the service, the sheriffs' officer had posted on the door a procla mation of outlawry against a Mr. Knight, formerly a sur geon and apothecary, residing in Sillwood-place, and now non est ; and at the close of the sermon, the officer, elevated on a tomb close to the principal door, read, three several times, a proclamation, warning the said Mr. Knight, that unless he appeared on the following day before the Barons of her Majesty's Exchequer, he would be " outlawed." The congregation speedily formed a circle around the officer, and at the repetition of the appalling word exchanged looks of surprise with each other ; but as their astonishment was reaching its height, the officer, having finished his duty, left them to their wonderment. The copy posted on the church door notified that the proceedings are taken by a considerable number of Brighton tradesmen, to whom the outlaw was, we hear, indebted to a large amount. THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.—AIthough the greater pro portion of the returns to the next General Assembly have been announced, the prbtable numbers of the various parties cannot as yet be stated with exactness ; but so far as these returns have been made known, it would appear that the Convocationists are destined to find themielves in a minority of 30 or 35. In this calculatiOn we do not include the chances of seceders from the schismatics, of whom every day furnishes examples. About one-sixth of the returns from Presbyteries are still unpublished, and among them are se veral in the Highlands, which have nrabablv.rauspedflon. jority against the schismatical party ; but the representatives from burghs, not yet declared, may be expected to counter balance these votes. The constitutional party will therefore be placed in a position, even admitting the presence of quoad sacra members, to command a majority. The number of double returns is 10; and the number of votes covered by these is, as the returns have been made by the moderate party, 31 ; and as made by the Convocationists, 43.—Edin burgh Advertiser. AFFECTION IN A DOG.—On Tuesday week an accident, which proved immediately fatal, occurred to a waggoner, named James Giles. Deceased had been for a load of lime to Stow, and on his return, when near the half-way-house, he desired his son to get a 'bundle of hay for the horses. this the boy being unable to effect, called his father to assist him. The unfortunate man endeavoured to get on the shafts, but missed his footing, and fell on the off-side, the fore wheel, slightly injuring one of his feet, and the hind wheel passing over his bead, which it crushed in so dreadful a manner that the poor fellow died instantly, without uttering a groan. Deceased was perfectly sober. An inquest was held the following day. Mr. Oakley stated, that on hearing of the accident he went into one of his fields to send a man down for the team, and he observed the deceased's dog en deavouring to induce the men at work there to follow him. It seems the faithful animal, who was with his master at the time of the melancholy occurrence, at first tried to prevent any one approaching the body ; but, on being driven away, it swam across the river, and made directly for Lydart, where he was using almost human means to prevail upon the fellow-workmen of deceased to go with him to render assis tance.—Herpford Journal. INTERESTING RELICS.---About -three weeks ago, some woodcutters in pursuit of rabbits on the hill of Knockie, in Glentanuer, accidentally discovered, under a cairn, an ancient burial-place, covered by a large flat stone. On re moving this, they found the following articles Two bronze vessels capable of holding about two-thirds of a pint (Scotch measure), of neat workmanship, cast in rather an elegant shape, and with a handle on one side. 2. Seventeen spear of axe heads, of bronze, known among antiquaries by the name of cells. 3. From thirty to forty bronze bracelets, of various sizes, but mostly, it would seem, designed for the for the wrist. 4. Four bronze pieces, two of them richly gilt, consisting of three rings, each about an inch in diame ter, joined together in a line. slightly curved, as if to be worn on the shoulder or body. 5. Six bronze rings, of good workmanship, of different sizes. 6. A circular piece of bronze, probably part of the mountings of a weapon. In one of the cups there was a small quantity of resinous mat ter ; and in the other, what the workmen described as ,` something like a piece of parchment," but which crum bled to pieces on being handled. The whole of the interes ing relics are in admirable preservation, and are evidently of Roman manufacture, and so belong, at the latest, to the middle of the fourth century.—Edinbtergh Witnees THE NEW BANKRUPTCY ACT.—An application for a fiat in bankruptcy against a Sussex tradesman, made on Thurs day last, developed circumstances which showed in a striking degree some of the advantages and disadvantages of the new act (sth and 6th Victoria, c. 122). The bankrupt had been engaged in business at a village in the neighbourhood of Brighton, and, after contracting a great number of small debts, announced a sale, with the proceeds of which it was supposed that he intended to decamp. Under the old act no proceedings could have been taken against the trader; but the new act enabling any " three or more" credit ors w h ose debts togeth er amount to .£lOO to strike a docket, nine cre ditors in this case so combined in order to make the required amount. This is an advantage derived from the new act. Now for the disadvantage. Including a witness to prove the act of bankruptcy, the nine petitioning creditors and their solicitor, eleven persons had to travel to London, uwards of forty miles, and will have to do so perhaps many times more in the prosecution of the fiat ; whereas, under the old system, the distance to be travelled, by transacting the business be fore the Brighton local commissioners, would have been about eight or nine miles, and the difference in the expenses arising from distance only will probably amount to nearly or quite the total amount of debts. d Loss OF Two SHIPS BY FlRE. — Accounts have within _ the last two or three days been received by the different in s surance companies in the city of the total loss of two vessels f with their cargoes,—the schooner Agnes, belonging to Lon t don, and the brig Jemima, of Glasgow. The loss of the first- D named vessel, which was a fast-sailing schooner, about 150 tons burden, occ urre d on t h e n i ght of Friday, the 24th ult., ilat. 54deg. 9m., long. 3, east, while on her passage from Havre to Hamburgh, having a valuable general cargo on r hoard. She had been but a few days on her passage, when, at about half-past nine o'clock at night, the watch on deck t was startled by the appearance of smoke issuing through the i main hatchway, which was instantly torn off, and, to the dismay of all on hoard, they found the cargo to he on fire; but it was evidently at the very bottom of the vessel. For 1 three or four hours water was poured down in torrents amongst the cargo, without producing the slightest effect upon the fire; in fact, it was rapidly gaining head, and, as a last resource, the hatches were closed, battened down, and every means adopted to stifle flames. In the meanwhile, the master brought the ship round into a different course, in hopes of meeting with some vessels, and lights were hoisted at the mast-head as a signal of distress. At about half past two o'clock the destruction of the vessel became inevi table, for the decks were very nearly burnt through ; the crew, who had previously jumped into the longboat, re maining within a short distance of the burning ship until she went down, which did not take place until between 6 and 7 o'clock. Everything in her was by that time consumed ; the mast had fallen overboard, and nothing remained but the mere shell. Two hours after the vessel had sunk the crew were picked up by the Norwegian bark SOstre, Captain Hoist, from Holmstrand for Harlingen, the fire having been seen by them at a distance, and were bearing down to afford assist ance. The destruction of the other ship, the Jemima, of Glasgow, by fire, happened on the morning of Wednesday, the 22d of February, in lot., 35, long. 18, under similar cir cumstances. Soon after the outbreak of the flames, a vessel called the Gartsherrie came alongside and took the crew on board, and afterwards lauded them safely at Madeira. The I ship is fully insured at Glasgow. 1 VARIETIES ORIOII4 liEwatoNs.—The first pension ever g*anted waz by Henry Vlll. in 1512, when the sum of twenty pounds a-year was given to a lady of his court for services done! A gentlewoman also had the second. We are in the dark as to the extent of her merits; but it was from the same Sove reign, in 1536, and amounted to £6 13s. 4d. a-year. To ALL FAIR LOVERS OF WORSTED WORK.—Take half a-pound of soft soap, half-a-pound of honey, and one pint of English gin ; mix all well together, and with a sponge clean the work with it ; then apply cold water in the same manner, and dry with linen cloths : the brightest colours will be un injured. A QUESTION.—A party, twelve in number, consisting of a schoolmaster, his ushers, the ushers' friends, and some of his pupils, went to a tavern, and incurred a bill of one shil ling, which was paid by a contribution from each person. The master put down fourpence, the ushers were to pay two pence each, the friends a halfpenny each, and the pupils a farthing each. How did they arrange it? ISLE OF SKYE.—The Isle of Skye has, within the last 40 years, furnished for the public service-21 lieutenant-generals and major -generals ; 45 lieutenant-colonels ; 600 majors, captains, lieutenants, and subalterns ; 10,000 foot soldiers ; 120 pipers ; 4 governors .of British colonies ; 1 governor general ; 1 adjutant-general • 1 Chief Baron of England ; and 1 jud ge o f t h e S upreme dourt of Scotland. The generals may be classed thus :-8 Macdonalds, 6 Macleods, 2 Ma rallisters, 2 M`Cashills, 1 M`Kinnon, 1 Macqueen ' and 1 Elder. The I s l e o f Skye is 60 miles long and 20 broad.

GARRICK AND GENTLEMEN -ACTING.—" As it cannot but be gratifying to you to hear to hear the opinion of a good jud 4 e of acting, and who is himself an excellent comedian, respecting Mr. Elliston's performance of Charles, I will not (Lily myself the pleasure of transcribing a paragraph from a le ter I received this morning. The approbation of a few such judges is of far higher value than the plaudits of an unr fiectii g multitude, for such, I fear, must all multitudes be considered. ' Charles was better performed by Elliston trian by Smith—at least, in my opinion. Smith I never really liked in the part. It was a relief to me not to see the chair leaned upon, &c. Elliston looked the character admirably. Lord St. Helens was as much pleased as myself, who, never having seen O'Brien, thinks Elliston the first gentleman on the stage—he has an easy vivacity and a spiritual quality which no other performer possesses—a charming voice, and his side acting is admirable.' If your affection, Madam, has some gratification from reading this ulogy, my own vanity is gratified while I write it, as I take !o myself the credit of baying discovered Mr. Elliston's peculiar talent in much earlier days the present. The annals of the stage record two gentlemen actors only,—viz., Wilkes, in the time of Cibber and Mrs. Oldfield, and O'Brie❑ in that of Garrick, which last-named, with all his astonishing powers both in tragedy and comedy, could be anything—everything—except a gentleman."—Ainstcorth's Magazine, THE SUICIDE OF CHATTERTON THE POET.—The case of poor Chatterton, " The marvellous boy, The sleepless soul that perish'd in his pride," has been adduced as an illustration of the fact that it is pos sible for a person perfectly sane to commit suicide; but no one acquainted with his history will doubt his insanity. Chatterton possessed natural acute sensibilities; he was un questionably a man of genius. When the forgery of Rowley's poems was detected his mind received a severe shock. Friend after friend forsook him ; all his bright and cheering hopes were levelled to the earth ; his character for integrity was gone ' • the world, which h a d b een so eager t o count hi s society and friendship, turned its back upon him ; misfor tune followed misfortune in rapid succession, until his mind was frenzied by mental agony and physical suffering. At the time of his death he was in want of the common necessa ries of life, realising the affecting picture of the poet— " Homeless, near a thousand homes he stood, And near a thousand tables pined and wanted food." A few days before Chatterton'sdeath, he wrote to his mo ther hi these terms :—" I am about to quit for ever my un grateful country. I shall exchange it for the deserts of Africa, where tigers area thousand times more merciful than man."—Winslow's Anatomy of Suicide. CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DUTCH. — I like Holland—it is the antipodes of France. No one is ever in a hurry here. Life moves on in a slow majestic stream. a little muddy and stagnant perhaps, like one of their own canals; but you see no waves, no breakers —not an eddy, nor even a froth bubble, breaks the surface. Even a Dutch child, as he steals along to school, smoking his short pipe, has a mock air of thought about him, the great fat horses that wag along, trailing be hind thorn some insignificant truck, loaded with a little cask, not bigger than a Life Guardsman's helmet, look as though Erasmus was performing duty as a quadruped, and walking about his own native city in harness. It must be a glorious country to be born in. No one is ever in a passion ; as to honesty, who has energy enough to turn a robber? The eloquence which in other lands might win a man from his allegiance would be tried in vain here. Ten minutes' walk would set any audience asleep, from Zetland to Antwerp. Smoking, beer drinking, stupifying, and domino playing, go on in summer before, in winter within the cafes, end every broad flat face you look upon, with its watery eyes and muddy complexion, seems like a coloured chart of the country`o that gave it birth. How all the industry that has enriched them Iftt r: MlTsliicu'ous, is ever effected, no one can tell. Who ever saw a Dutchman labour? Everything in Holland seems typified by one of their own drawbridges, which rises as a boat approaches, by invisible agency, and then remains patiently aloft till a sufficiency of passengers arrives to re store it to its place, and Dutch gravity seems the grand centre of all prosperity.—Dublin University Magazine. After the battles of Bautzen and Wurchen it was suggested to Napoleon that the number of the wounded had been in creased by voluntary mutilation ; and that all who had lost a finger, or whose hand had been pierced by a ball, were traitors who wished to escape from the service. Napoleon ordered that the wounded of this class (1200) should be se parated from the rest ; and that a number of com missioners, consisting of several principal surgeons should ex amine each individual of these soldiers. A council of war, moreover, was app o i n ted to try the guilty, and cause th em to be executed on the spot. Larrey.had been named presi dent of the surgical board. The day before it met, a certain personage, who believing the accusation, desired its success, ordered him to find four culprits in each division, who should be taken before a council of war, and shot instantly. Larrey, filled with terror and indignation at such an order, was about to se n d i n hi s res i gn ation, and quit th e army, when a friend made him give up the project by observing that he might be useful to these unfortunate men. Larrey did not hesitate one moment. The examination was extremely ri gorous, and lasted four whole days. Laney showed, by reasoning on the character of the wounds, that all the accused were innocent. He then addressed a report to Napoleon; and, believing that he had displeased the Emperor in this affair, composedly awaited the disfavour which was to follow. But Napoleon was not insensible to the claims of truth and justice when clearly demonstrated and resolutely maintained. The conduct of Larrey was not lost upOn him. In the mid dle of the ensuing night Baron Fain brought Larrey a most flattering letter from the Emperor, in which he was congra tulated on his firm, honourable, and humane conduct. This letter was accompanied by a present of 6,000 f. and the war rant of a pension of 3,000 f. to be paid from Napoleon's privy nurse.—Arnoit's Hunterzan Oration. LICENTIOUSADEPRAVITY TN THE SOUTH SEA ISLANDS. —The triumph of the gospel in Polynesia has been more conspicuous in regard to that leading virtue which is the pledge and safeguard of domestic comfort, the foundation of all regular society, and the source of all the endearing relationships of life. No one can read the descriptions of the early voyagers without a mixture of compassion and disgust at the licentious scenes introduced into their narra tives; and, though the writers in general may not have dis posed to darken beyond necessity the shades of the picture, some of them were constrained to declare that" the excesses were incredible." To the first missionaries, accordingly no bar appeared so insuperable as the loose notions which prevailed in regard to the requisitions of the 7th command ment. The effect was the same on the minds of the early converts themselves, and clouded their anticipations as to the success of the new religion. " You may," said one of the most int-lligent among them, " induce the people to dis continue murdering their infants, offering human sacrifices, and practising demon worship. You may induce them to burn their idols, embrace your faith, attend your prayers, learn your biaoks, and possibly even refrain from drunken ness and theft; but the preservation of female virtue, union in marriage according to Christian :precepts, and congugal fidelity will never be obtained." On this important point, however, where reformation was the must hopeless, success has been the most complete. No sooner was the authority "a the Rsdeemer recognised, even through the somewhat obscure medium in which his character and offices were con veyed, than the more offensive of .the abominations disap peared ' • the virtue of chastity was i ncu l ca t e d and maintai ned; Christian marriage was instituted, and the invoilable obligations of the bond piously acknowledged. This change it is added, has been, under the divine blessing, effected entirely by the exertions of Christian Missionaries, not only without any external assistance, but in the face of the deter mined opposition of many from whom they might have ex pected both countenance an aid.—Edinburgh Cabinet Li bvary, No. XXXIII. Polynesia. AN ELECTION OF A SPEAKER, TEMP. ELlz.—The fol lowing scene, some years later, most graphic in its description of the homely membe rs and their modest bead, is painted to the life. Meeting, to go through the form of choosing a speaker with all proper solemnity, " the comptroller of the household, 39 Elizabeth, Sir William Knolls, said, I will deliver my opinion unto you who is most fit for this place, being a member of this house, and those good abilities, which I know to be in him ; ' (here he made a little pause, and the house hawked and spat; and, after silence made, he pro ceeded) : Unto this place of dignity and calling, in my opinion ' (here he stayed a little), ' Mr. Sergeant Yelvert on , (looking upon hi m ) ' i s t h e fittest man to be preferred, (after which words Mr. Yelverton blushed, and put off his hat, and after sat bareheaded), for 1 know him to be a man wise and learned, secret and circumspect, religious and faithful, no way disable, but every way able to supply this place.' He then sat down, hoping f or a general consent. The whole house cried, 'Ay, ay, ay ! let him he! ' and the master comptroller made a low reverence, and sat down ; and after a little pause and silence, Mr. Sergeant Yelverton rose, arid, after very humble reverence, said—' Whence your unex pected choice of me to be your mouth or speaker should pro ceed, lam utterly ignorant. If from my merits , strange it were that so few deserts should purchase suddenly so great an honour. Nor from my ability doth this your choice pro ceed ; for well known it is to a great number in this place now assembled, that my estate is nothing correspondent for the 'maintenance of this dignity. For my father dying, left me a younger brother, and not hi ng to me but my b are an nuity. Then growing to mans estate, and some small practice of the law, I took a wife, by whom I have had many children ; the keeping of us all being a great impoverishment to my estate, and the daily living of us all nothing but my daily industry. Neither from my person nor nature cloth this choice arise. For he that supplieth this place ought to be a man big and comely, stately and well-spoken, his voice great, his courage majestical, his nature haughty, and his purse plentiful arid heavy ; but, contrarily, the stature of my body is small, myself not so well-spoken, my voice low, my carriage lawyer-like and o f t h e common ' fashion, my nature soft and bashful, my purse thi n, light, and never yet plenti ful.'

Upon a better attendance of town and country buyers this morning, and a more general enquiry for Wheat than of late, most descriptions of foreign realized Id., and English as well as Irish, id. to 2d. per 70Ibs. over the rates of last week ; the advance, however, was not freely paid, nor were the opera tions by any means_lively or extensive. Home-made and Irish Flour, upon a moderate demand, was the turn dearer; but States and Canadian were in slow request, without the slightest improvement in value. The malting season drawing towards a close, Barley for that purpose met little enquiry to-day ; and grinding qualities were difficult of sale at late prices. Malt. Beans, and Pease, remained in much the same lan guid state as described in the foregoing report, each hardly sustaining the rates last noted. The Oat trade this morning was rather heavy, but, holders being firm, former prices were supported. Oatmeal, commanding the attention of speculative buyers, was 3d. per load dearer, and transactions to a fair amount were effected. APRIL 13. There is no probability of any material change in the next return of duties. In consequence of to-morrow being Good Friday our second market this week was held to-day, which being out of the regular course, very few country buyers appeared, and of our local dealers the attendance was small ; in Wheat, therefore, the transactions this morning were re stricted altogether to limited purchases for immediate con sumption. In the face of very few fresh arrivals, however, or of any undue pressure of samples from granary, arid holders being generally encouraged by the improving ac counts from several of the leading markets of the Kingdom, where stocks of Wheat are reported to have been rather more freely drawn upon of late, our last quotations for all descriptions of this Grain were fully maintained.—Flour was in moderate request, and British as well as Foreign steadily supported the terms noted on Tuesday. The trade for Barley, Malt, Beans and Pease, remaining in -precisely the same position as described in our last re port, affords no scope for any particular remark to-day. Oats, though in slow demand, retaining their previous value; whilst Oatmeal continued to meet some inquiries for holding over, and sales to a fair amount were only prevented by holders requiring rather higher prices.
