We have elsewhere noticed a public meeting, held in Chester, on this subject, on Wednesday last, and have since found some remarks upon it in the Chester Chro nicle, which we consider entitled to attention. Our con temporary states, first, that the facts adduced at the meeting " were all one way, and the decision the other, the first being confirmatory of the value of the river im provements as a measure, and the only measure, for bringing trade to Chewer, and the latter being absolutely in favour of a measure unexplained to the meeting either in plan or detail, and the indubitable reeult of which would be, that instead of bringing trade to Chester, that it would take it from it. Repeatedly were the advocates of the ship canal asked for plans and estimates ; and as often was the demand evaded. Colonel Hutchinson him self had not seen them ; and he talked of supplying the canal from other waters than the Dee. Where will he find them ? Sir George Stephen, with great simplicity, said the plan was a verbal one." Our contemporary pro ceeds to shew the absurdities involved in the scheme, add ing that nothing tangible was produced by Sir George Stephen or Colonel Stanhope, from whose speeches it was impossible to Fay whether they advocated a ship canal or a railway, and ascribes the movement as one made merely to obtain a standieg in the public mind of the Chester and doomed Manchester Direct scheme, without the slightest sympathy for Chester but ii. words. The parties advocating a ship canal produced no proof of its feasibility. When they proposed to lay out 41 ; 000,000 of money on a ship canal, they should have prepared themselves with data. All that could be got out of them was " a ship canal between Chester and Dawpool." The writer goes on to state, that they had no plans, otherwise they would have produced them, and that the canal " only exists in a red ink line on an ordnance map," which has never even been surveyed, yet in behalf of which they have cunningly obtained a resolution of support from a popular meeting. The effect, he thinks, will be not to advance the ship canal project. (which he considers pre posterous,) but to retard the improvement of the river, and trusts those who have unwittingly taken it up abandon it. There was no instance of a ship canal hav ing paid. Mr. Wardell said, that "in the course of fifty years the Gloucester canal has been pawned, forfeited, and then redeemed, at an expense of £60,000, and has never paid a dividend." Towards the conclusion of his remarks, our con•emporary observes, that " all expe rience establishes that ship canals are empty chimeras, and have not brought trade, nor realized revenue. There is nothing in the project from Chester to Dawpool to take it out of the general rule. The Manchester traffic can be more cheaply and expeditiously conducted from the Bir kenhead docks, and by the Chester Junction railway, or from Holyhead, or Milford haven, nay even via Liver pool. All experience establishes that improved tidal navigations do create trade and realize remunerative re venue. Yet the voice of Chester has been for a ship canal, to create a port at Dawpool!" We may remind our readers, that about twenty years ago a ship canal was pi-ejected betwee❑ Dawpool and Manchester, by a Major Watkins, of the last-named place, which was to smother up Liverpool as a port, but the project was ridiculed, and died in the hate ing. We shell not take upon ourselves to say that a ship canal from Dawpool to Cheat , r is impracticable; but we great ly doubt whether it would pay anything like the interest of the outlay, and concur with our con'emporary in opin ion that the intended railways from Birkenhead, and even via Liverpool, would more effectually serve the traffic of Manchester. THE BROTHERS OF LA TRAPPE. The following curious and exact particulars of this as- cetic ord gleaned during a recent visit to the Mo nastery of La Trappe, whilom the Benardine Abbey, si tuated a short distance from the manufacturing town of Mortague, Normandy. The monastery is at present composed of twenty-five fathers, comprising the Most Reverend Louis-Made, General of the Trappistes, and or fifty lay-brothers. The establishment consists of an immense house, with extensive gardens, fish-ponds, stables, sheepfolds, cow houses, &c., covering a space of several acres, and nightly tenanted by sixteen horses, twenty-six cows, one bull, one hundred sheep, a magnificent ram, sixty pigs and sows, and three hundred geese. The wheat upon the es tate is very fine, almost every blade carrying eight ears, and the fruits and vegetables are of an extraordinary size. We remarked a water-mill of English construction upon one of the ponds, which abounded with pike, carp, tench, roach, &c. Close to the convent is the Gnat° of St. Bernard, the founder of the order, which was re-esra- olished and reformed in 1603 by Abbe de Rance. Toe Fathers of La Trappe wear a white serge gown, wish a hood attached to it, and the brothers brown ones. The frere-hotelier, or house steward, alone wears, over a white robe, a sort of black cap : he is the cicerone of the convent visitors. All the Trappis , es have their h,ads shaved with the exception of a small tuft upon the crown. They wear a woollen shirt, which is changed every fifteen days, no trousers, merely linen drawers summer and winter, shoes within doors, and heavy sabots for farm work. Each has his employment, tut n about, from which the superior is not even exempted. When a brother commits a fault he is condemned by the most reverend, according to its gravity, to eat upon the ground, or kneeling a certain time with head bent to the earth. The youngest of the fathers is about twenty-five years old, and the most aged seventy years. Thy sleep without un dressing upon a plank covered with. a thi straw mattress and a woollen coverlet. No member of the order is per mitted to have money in his possession. All that is re• ceived by the brother servitors from visitors ought to be placed in the convent box. When a father or brother dies he is buried coffinless, in his religious dress, and placed in a sitting pmture in the cemetery. The most rigorous silence is imposed upon all the Trappistes, and they communicate w.th each other by signs, like the deaf and dumb. From the 14th September to Easter, these devotees eat only one slight repast during the day ; the remainder of the year they make two or three, according to the heaviness of their work. Winter and summer they retire to rest a► eight, and rise at two in the morning. They then repair to the chapel until five, and from thence to labour in the farm and the fields. Every kind of work is done in common, and without distinction of persons; all is f - dof 1 and ich r-rink sut, ,or the gooc. ,ne monastery, a ea ,not,.. mats to the most servile labour in a spirit of penitence and humiliation. FURTHER EXPOSURES OF THE LEAGUE. At the South Cheshire Revision Court, Mr. Townsend, the revising banister, and a whig. pissed the following condemnation on the shameful conduct of the League with reference to their conduct at the recent registrations. A reverend gentleman had been very properly enterrd on the registry, for property for which he had voted for forty years ; he was objected to, and the barrister ordered the objector to pay 20s. costs, following the order up by these remarks : "As this is the last day of my revision, and publicity can alone afford a sufficient check to the evil, I think it right, as revising barri-ter for this division of the county, to state publicly my deliberate condemnation of the vexa tious, oppressive, indiscriminate, and reckless manner in which at least a fourth of the whole body of voters in South Cheshire have been assailed. Between 1,500 and 1.600 objections, all posted in Manchester, have been published ; several hundred objections, in addition, were received too late for publication, the postoffice at Manchester being overwhelmed with a sudden influx of letters, addressed to overseers, at the last moment, and unable to forward them in time. As the voters on the register are less than 8,000, it would thus appear that every fourth voter out of the entire constituency has had his vote questioned. In exact proportion to the multiplicity, has been the futility of his objections. Gentlemen receiving many thousand pounds a year from their freeholds, have been gravely asked whether they had forty shillings clear. The owner of a township, claiming all the freehold land in the town ship, has been objected to because he did not name the different fields for which he qualified ; many magistrates and clergy have been compelled to attend here, and no questions put. In several townships every voter has been objected to without distinction, and no objection sus tained. They have all been signed by Samuel Hickton, of Rood-lane, Congleton, and Abraham Goodwin, Sand bach, but in no one case has a notice of objection signed by these two individuals been personally delivered ; they THE LIVP,RPOOL sTANbAiIO. MISCELLANEOUS. The Conservatives have gained 5j9 on the city of Lon don registration. Ti e Scotch papers contain accounts of the overflowing of the p+incipzl rivers of that country. Dr. Boggs, the Itornish Bishop of the Western District, died at Prior-park, near Bath, on Thursday. A society, having for its object the protection of railway proprietors from risk, on the principle of an insurance society company, is advertised with a capital of £3,000,000, in 30,000 shares of £lOO each. The title of the company is the Railway Guarantee Societe. At a meeting of the shareholders of the unfortunate bank of Manchester last week, it was announced that the liabilities have been reduced to £110 : 198 18s. 5d., whilst the ultimate available assets ere £159,712 6s. sd. ; so that short time the concern will be out of debt. __ _ ASSAULT IN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE. - At Worship street police court, on Friday, a man named George Gur• ney was fined 10s. for pressing against and annoying a married woman, in one of the second class carriages, on the Ea , tern Counties Railway. The man was intoxicated at the time. The African fever has broken out at Woolwich, on board her Majesty's steamer Growler, recently arrived from Africa. Two men died at Woolwich infirmary on Tuesday. Seven men took the disease on Wednesday. It is observed that the Growler has had frequent commu nication with the Eclair. The Marquis of Hertford gave a grand fete ehamperre to nearly 3 00 of his tenantry. on Thursday last, in the castle gardens, at Lisburn. The noble marquis presided on the occasion, and discharged in an able manner the hospitalities of a benevolent landlord, assisted by Captai❑ Meynell, M.P., the Dean of Ross, &c. On Wednesday morning, one of the large brick arches in the continuation of the Glasgow and Glenkirk railway, now forming, gave way, and fell down with a tremendous cras_i, whilst the workmen were at breakfast. Fortu nately no one was injured. Sufficient weight had not been left on the " haunches," consequently the arch sprung. NEW RAILWAY PROJECTS.—The increase within the last ten days of new railway speculations announced, answers to a capital in round numbers of £50.000,000, the sclirmes being about 40 in number. There had pre viously been advertised about 460 new railway schemes to be brought before the Parliamentary session of 1846, and representing a capital of nearly £500,000,000, the first calls on which may be roughly estimated at £45,000,000. The maddest of railway speculators, who is invulnerable to reason and to argument, must be startled, one would think, and pause a little at such facts ! RAIN IN 1815.—The Philnsoph cal Magazine pub lishes a meteorological regiater of the quantities of rain that have fallen in each month during the present year. From this table it appears that during the first four months, January, February, March, and April, little more than four inches of rain fell, whilst during the succeeding four months of May, June, July, and August, there were fourteen inches of rain. "February fill dike" must henceforth lose its characier, for during this year a smaller quantity of rain fell in that month than in any other. The average quantity of rain in a year near London is twenty-six inches, ai.d eighteen inches fell within the first eieht months; and as at least three inches must have fallen in :September, we may reasonably expect the re maining months of the year to be unusually dry. THE AUTHORSHIP OF THE LETTERS OF JUNIUS The Inverness Courier says that Sir David Brewster, who is married to a datiehter of the late Mr. James Macpher son, translator of Ossian's Poems, has discovered some letters among the papers of his father-in-law, wnich may lead to the discovery of a great secret—the authorship of " Junius." The person who, as Sir David thinks, may be identified as the author, is Lachlan Maclean, the son of an Irish Presbyterian Clereymao. hut descended from the ancient Scottish family of the M'Cleans of Coll Ile was bred to the study of medicine, but became a political writer and adventurer in London, and rose to some esni- Lence. He was once an Under-Secret a ry of St a t e , i n which capacity he might baae become acquainted with state secrete. Having been sent Out to India by Govern ment in 1776, he was shipwrecked and drowned on the passage—a circumstance that ti ay account for the non revealment of the secret as to the authorship of "Junius." His papers were ail lost at the same time. THE EISTEDFODD.—This long-announced meeting commenced at Ahergavenny on Wednesday last. Ti►e town was completely filled with visitors, and lodgings were as difficult to procure as they usually are on similar oeca ions. Additional interest was given to the proceed iogs by the presence of Dwarkanauth Tagore, and the Chevalier Bunsen, who had arrived in Abergavenny on the previous Evening. Shortly before eleven o'clock the procession to meet the president left the Sun Inn, headed by three grenadiers, wearing huge leeks in their bear-skin caps, and an excellent hand playing Welsh airs. Next followed the ioh•►bitants of Abergavenny, two and two; then a chariot containing a printing press in operation, from which were distributed copies of the address to the president to the . multitudes who lined the streets. More of the Abergavenny people followed, and the rear of the procession was brought up by another car drawn by two horses, and containing weavers at the loom, and ex:iibiting the national plaid. How WE GOT UP THE GLENMUTCHICIW RAILWAY, AND HOW WE GOT OUT OF IT.—When the time came ror the parliamentary contest we all emigrated to London. I still recollect, with lively satisfaction, the many plea sant days we spent in the metropolis at the company's expense. There were just a neat fifty of us, and we oc cupied the whole of an hotel. The di-cession before the committee was long and formidable. We were opposed by four other companies who patronised lines, of which the nearest was at least a hundred miles distant from Glen mutehkin ; but as they founded their opposition upon dissent from " the Glenmutelikin system " generally, the committee allowed them to be heard. We fought for three weeks a most desperate battle, and might in the end have been victorious, had not our antagoni€t, at the very close of his case, pointed out no less than seventy-three fatal error s in the parliamentary plan deposited by the unfort.mmte Solder. Why this was not done earlier I never exactly understood ; it may be that our opponents, with gentlemanly consideration, were unwilling to curtail our sojourn in London—and their own. The drama was now fir ally closed, and, after all preliminary expenses were paid, sixpence per share was returned to the holders upon surrender of their scrip."—Blackwood. GREAT IMPROVEMENT IN THE ART OF PRINTING As everything that tends to advance the interest and in fluence of the " fourth estate" is, in our estimation, im portant to the public, we have much pleasure in calling attention to a remarkable improvement just effected in the printing-press by Mr. Alexander Burton, of Glasgow. That gentlemen has invested wnat he calls the " Patent Caledonian Printing Press," which is so constructed that two sets of men. without hindrance to each other, can work two distinct forms at one time—there being two " tables," and but one " platen'," which, operating upon the tables alternately, produces an impression from each. One principal advantage which this press possesses over the Columbian and other presses is, that while they are invariably exposed to breakage, and expend nearly half their pressure on " dead metal," it effects a saving of la bour, and is proof against breakage, from the fact that the whole weight and force of the press is dependent on a perpendicular pillar. To sum up, it. is easier wrought. produces a finer impression, occupies less space, and is cheaper and more durable than any other of the existing printing-presses. Many eminent scientific and practical gentlemen have examined the press, arid expressed them selves in terms of the greatest satisfaction. WEST INDIAN STEAM PACKET COMPANY.—The annual meeting of this company was held last week. The company has eleven fine-built steam ships, of 1400 tons and 450-horse power each, besides two of 909 tons and 300-horse power each, and three schooners, for casual transit from the differ ent islands. Should the negociations be completed that are being carried on for the scheme of forming a communication across the Isthmus of Panama, from Chagres to that port, so as to connect the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, by means of a railway, plans and estimates of which are at present in London and Par s. and every probability of being carried out by the formation of a joint company. a moat beneficial opening to the commercial and minine interest in Chili and the whole line of the South Pacific will be accomplished, as there will be a regular communication established by the South Pacific Steam Navigation Company. from Valparaiso to Panama and Lima, and by the Royal West India Steam Packets to and from Chagres and Scuthampton. A new era is issuing forth in South America, which, in a few years hence, will render that portion of the new world, once under the despotism of Spain, one of the most flourishing parts of the globe, by the general adoption of railways, and the benefits of steam intercourse with Europe. In our West India Islands, Jamaica, Barbadoes. &c., the benefits of railways are beginning to be duly appreciated, as well as in the Havana. and even in Mexico, a line is being established, as well as in the Brazils, which, in all probability, will lead to the formation of a road being established across the Cordilleras to Santiago, the capital of the republic of Chili, opening a grand inter coursa between the two seas, in-tead of going round Cape Horn. A railway is projected from Valparaiso to Santiago. which will be of great importance to that great commercial port.—Mining Journal. S U PERSTITION.—A singular trial took place at Tain on Monday last, showing that superstition is not yet wholly dispelled. William Grant, a fisherman of Port mahomack, conceiving that the wife of Walter Munro, a fisherman there, possessed the power of witchcraft, and that her supernatural influence was directed against him self. went into her husband's house on the 3d August last, and with his pocket-knife deliberately inflicted a deep gash on his forehead. The prisoner admitted the assault, but stated that he considered himself justified on account of the provocation he bad received. The prosecutor re fused to accept such a plea, and the case went to trial, when the jury found Grant guilty, and be was sentenced to three months' imprisonment in Dingwall gaol. The declaration made before the sheriff by the prisoner was a very curious and original statement. He attributed the loss of his new nets and the want of success in the her ring fishery to the woman's " dark dealings in sorcery," and the rest of the crew were not willing to go out with him while be was under the curse of the witch! In con sequence of this, he took the opportunity, on the night in question, to cut her " above the breath," believing that with the first drop of blood brought out by such a pro cess the devil would come out along with it, and that the woman would be deprived of the power of harming him ! It would seem that a superstitious notion of this sort is prevalent among the Highland people ; but the " cut" is generally made by a pin or needle. In the absence of these, the prisoner used his knife, by which there was an effusion of blood for several hours, until the doctor ar rived from Tain, and also confinement to bed for five weeks. The sheriff addressed the prisoner at considerable length, in which he dwelt on the recklessness of his con duct in assaulting an old woman who was unable to defend herself; and also exposing the groundless superstition which prompted him to ouch an act of cruelty.—lnver nolo Courier. MILNER'S FIRE - RESISTING SU?s,S.--PAE VENTION OF EXPLOSIONS OF GUN-POW— DER IN FIRES. We have edpeatedly had occasion to recommend to all who are interested in the preservation of manuscript books, deeds, or other valuable documents from fire, the patent fire resisting boxes and safes invented and manu factured by Messrs. Milner and Son, of this town ; and the principle has been so extensively tested, both experi mentally and in " practical" instances of intense "acci dental" fires, that a recapitulation of its peculiar and un failing adaptation for the purpose were altogether super fluous. Some time ago, in referring to the melancholy explosion on board the " Camperdown." we also noticed, in terms of great commendation, the efficient application of the invention to the construction of magazines, or safes, whether on shore or on shipboard, for the lodgment of gun-powder,---its operation, in the event of the encase ment coming in contact with fire, being so to moisten or saturate the powder, by the steam gradually evolved from the internal chambers, at high temp-ratures, that the be fore explosive material is converted into a doughy mass, in:gni - able by the common chemical action of heat, so that even in the event of the magazine itself being burnt away, its powers as an explosive are entirely annihilated. This tact has been incontrovertibly proved in Liverpool, Sheffield, and many other towns, to the great astonish ment and satisfaction of numerous scientific gentlemen who witnessed those severe tests. We anticipated, at the time, that the advantages of the principle would ere long become known and appreciated, not only by owners of merchant vessels carrying muni'iors of war, but by her Majesty's governmen , , who would avail themselves of it, many of our national fleet having, from time to time, been destroyed, together with the lives of their crews, by explosions while in action, or by accidental fire. We therefore feel great gratification in stating that the guardians of the public weal have at leneth taken up the subject with a view to the prevention of a recurrence of such disasters. Me-srs. Milner's have received a com munication, dated Committee of Metals Office, Admiralty, Somerset House, 10th instant, requesting to be furnished with copies of an t i• accounts of the interesting experiments that had taken place with these sales, together with information as to where one of them could be obtained in London, in order " to make some experiments con nected with the naval service." Mr. Milner has since had several interviews at the Admiralty, and is furnishing estimates for powder magazines for her Mijesty's ships of war. We doubt not bet that the adaptation of the principle, as affording protection from the casual ignition of that most dangerous of explosive compounds—gun powder—will thus be fu'ther confirmed, so that no vessel in the service will hereafter be placed in danger by fire near or about the spot where it is deposited. Messrs. Milner's invention as applied to magazines includes, by an additional outward casing, protection against ignition of the mass, through stray particles of gunpowder falling outside, on its being deposited in the main case ; and in the absence of fire it presents the additional advantage of preserving it from accidental wet or moisture, so that our gallant tars, although effectual provision be made for quenching fire when it comes, may still keep their powder dry.

SPAIN.—The Post publishes an alleged protest of the British government against the marriage of the Duke de Montpensier with the Infanta, furnished by the corres pondent of the Post, and we now give the following from the same authority, under date Madrid, October 9 :—" I am authorised to state, that Isabella Srgunda and her cousin, the Count de Montemolin, have been secretly be throthed to each other. The marriage is not to be solem nized until the Q , ieen completes her sixteenth year." The Post also has the following, which certainly looks confirmatory :—" We find a very strange piece of intel i gence published in the Emancipation, a Toulouse ultra liberal print. It states that the young Queen of Spain is alr*•ady mulled, and married to the eldest son of Don Carlos ; that the marriage has secretly taken place by Proxy ; that it is Munoz who represented the Count de Montemolin at the ceremony ; and that this alliance, which the European powers are already informed of, trill be published when circumstances prove favourable.

The iron that had been exposed by puncturing the nail holes had become coated with zinc— the sheathing was nearly clean, and free from marine grass and animalcules.

CAUTION AND NOTICE This great Patent, like every good one, is invaded ; and by the law's delays, (and its miserable state as re gards the interest of Patentees,) the parties are able to evade the consequences some short time longer. The same thing has occurred with other Patent s. In Neilson's Hot Blast Patent the invasion went on for years ; but one Firm only had at last to pay upwards of £llO,OOO (One Hundred and Twenty Thousand Pounds) Penaltie4. Buyers as well as Sellers are liable, and the Patentees will proceed against all parties who invade this—one of he most important inventions ever brought into use. Actions are proceeding against Messrs. Morewood and Rogers, Messrs. Walker, Gospel, Oak, and many others. The Company take this opportunity of giving the most unequivocal contradiction to the advertisement issued by Messrs. Morewood and Rogers on Bth August.
