The origin et this .man, and the early incidents of his life, have alike excited curiosity, and baffled re search.

IMPORTANT CORRESPONDENCE ; We stated in our last tliat a letter had been addressed to Lord Robert Grosvenor by a large number of the electors of Middlesex, for which count) , his lordship is a candidate, asking his lordship's opinion of the proposed endowment of the Romish priests. Lord Robert, in his reply, after stating the courteous terms in which the ques tion was put to him, says that he did not explain his senti ments previously for two reasons ; first, because he does not think it likely that the subject will be brought forward at present ; and, secondly, because that on two occasions he had indicated his views. • His lordship then goes on as follows : "The occasions to which I allude, are, my votes upon the motion of Lord Ellesmere, then Lord Francis Eger ton, made, I believe, in 1827, for the endowment of the Irish Romanist clergy, and upon the additional grant to Maynooth College, proposed at a recent period. I made no objection to the additional grant, but I voted with Mr, Ward, in order to record my opinion, that the Protestant establishment in Ireland is more than commensurate with the requirements of its members; in 1827 I voted with Lord Ellesmere. Now Ido not attach any exaggerated merit to political consistency ; one may be as obstinate in a failing as in a virtue, and could I bring myself to the conviction that I had erred in these votes, I trust I should at once confess it. Having, however, attentively and seriously reconsidered the subject, in its religious not less than in its political aspect, I am bound to declare *that — abstaining from any pledge as to detail—holding myself at liberty, should I then have a seat in Parliament, either to acquiesce in, or to oppose, upon its own merits, any measure that may be laid before the house having for its object the endowment of the Romish clergy in Ireland, — there may be again, as there were before, propositions to that effect submitted to the legislature, at a time and un der circumstances which will insure my concurrence. I beg to subscribe myself, with great deference, Sir, • most obedient and very humble servant, " ROBERT GROSVENOR " Mr. Henry Hoare, New-street, Spring-gardens." To this Mr. .Hoare replied as follows : " New-street, Spring .gardens, Jan. 27. " My Lord,—The gentlemen in conjunction with whom, and on whose behalf, I addressed your lordship in my former letter, have requested me to acknowledge the cour tesy and frankness with which you have replied to their inouiry. They have no wish to enter into a controversy with your lordship, but it is manifestly desirable that both parties should be correctly understood. They will, there fore, now venture to state the intent and meaning which they gather from your lordship's letter ; and, if I do this, your lordship for any further reply.

With the Bible in their handa, it is impossible for them to regard Popery in any other light than as dishonouring to God and dangerous to the souls of men.

" Knowing that your lordship is not of the class to which we have alluded, we regret to find.that your opinions in 1827 and 1845 have undergone no change.

The university of Oxford has granted £5OO for the Scotch and Irish. Upwards of £12,000 worth of grain left Ramsey har bour (Isle of Man), on Thursday.

SIR ROBERT PEEL AND HIS LABOURERS.—During the past week Sir Robert Peel has directed that the wages of the labourers employed on his estate be augmented from twelve to fifteen shillings per week. This generous step on the part of the right hon. baronet has, we believe, been taken in - consequence of the present dearness and scarcity of food. The Rev. Disney Robinson, who was found guilty of a libel upon - a Mrs. Jane Barker, at the last Gloucester Assizes, was brought up for judgement in the Court of Queen's Bench, on Monday. The rev. gentleman made an apology, and promised _to pay £5O towards the ex penses, which conditions were accepted on the part of the plaintiff, and the proceedings ended. A meeting of agricultural labourers was held on Tues day, at Bicester, Oxon, for the purpose of considering the distress which they experience from the lowness of wages and the high prices of provisions. In the course of the proceedings, it was stated that the highest wages received by any of them did not exceed 9s. a week, and that many labourers did not earn more than 4s. a week. In a paper read at the last meeting of the Royal Asiatic Society, Mr. Gutzlaff says that the mass of the Chinese people know nothing of the politics of their country, and are scarcely aware that they are governed by a prince of foreign descent. Mr. Gutzlaff never heard of any denim ciations against the Tartars, except amongst the literati and a few bigotted Chinese. On Wednesday week, as some parties were engaged turning a vessel in the river idle, close to the wharf at Bawtry, they brought to the surface a piece of sacking, which on examination was found to contain the body of a male child, apparently full grown. To the sacking was tied a brick, and the body had the appearance of having been immersed for about a week. . " .... - John Richards, a poor man of Gellyhave, has perished on the mountains between that place and Merthyr Tyd vil. He'went to Merthyr to obtain medicine for his sick wife ; he was asthmatical, and it is supposed that the ex ertion of ascending the mountain in haste had so over- ground, where he perished of the cold. His body was not discovered for some days, when hundreds of colliers gene rously left their work to seek for the missing man. The lady of the late Dr. Southey has written a letter to. the Athenceue, in which she accuses Mr. Howitt of wil fully calumniating her husband, because she had refused to furnish him with information relative to the doctor's habits and familiar scenes. Mr. Howitt, in reply, says that Mrs. Southey has formed her opinion of his work from a review in the Athenaeum, which is not favourable to her husband ; but that he has not said one word de- rogatory to his (Mr. S.'s) character. A few days ago, a number of people had assembled at North Maving, Shetland, to the funeral of a woman. of the hOUse, and had prevented the free running of a brook at the back of the barn; but the water suddenly which fell in, smothering the deceased's so . n,.whose father alive, only survived twenty-four hours.

EXTENSIVE THEFT.--On Friday, about eleven o'clock, a young man, clerk in an extensive commission house, in St. Vincent-place, drew from the Union Bank the sum of £l2OO for his employers, which was received in £2O notes ening a _ to the amount of £6OO, and in £5 notes to the amount of £6OO.

Now, if the brans only were taken out, which would in ne case exceed 7 Ibs., there , would be left 104 lbs. of nutri tious, flour—more who': some and more digestible, as every man can testify, than the fine flour now used ; so that, as 104 exceeds by one-fourth, twenty million quarters (which. is believed to be about our consumption) would, if dressed thisway, produce as much flour as twenty-five millions.— Salisbury Journal. THE POTATO DISEASE OF 1847.—Mr. James Barnes, of Bicton, Sidmouth, in a letter to the Gardener's Chro nicle, expresses his " fears that the disease will be emir more serious this year than the last, having observed the' old enemy lurking about to a greater extent than has hitherto been known." He cannot see any prOspect of a crop from either spring or late planted tubers. A similar disease, he states, has attacked the Jerusalem Artiehokes. The Cork Reporter says that a gentleman residing is the neighbourhood of Kinsale planted in a hotbed aboutthree months since, a quantity of potatoes of the quarry kind,' and on examining the produce, a few days ago, which,. by the forced growth, had far advanced to maturity, he found' them black and diseased. The gardener of the Speaker' of the House of Commons says that he has discovered disease in the forced new potatoes. POPERY. — The Tablet of last week contains the follow ing :—" The Blessed Sacrament carried in the streets for' the first time since the Reformation. Progress of the Rev. Hardinge Ivers's mission at Kentish-town." The fact thus paraded, is stated in the following terms ; the signature of Miles Gerald Keon being affixed to the com munication :—" It is only the other day that—for the first time, perhaps, in England since the Reformation—the Holy Eucharist was carried through the streets of a Lon don suburb, with the lights blazing, and in full procession, to visit the death-bed of a faithftll departing. The sen sation created among the Protestants in the neighbour hood is indescribable. With recollected looks, the women bowed and the men took off their hats, as they beheld, for the first time, with what awful and profound venera tion Holy Church surrounds the Adorable Sacrament." SEIZURE OF THE " BLACK CAT" SCHOONER.—A sei zure was made last night week in the River Thames, near to Limehouse-hole, where a nearly new vessel, called the Black Cat, Capt. J. Davies, had been for some days re ceiving her cargo, the greatest activity being manifested on the part of the shippers to get their freight on board. About ten o'clock, Mr. Davies, detective officer, went dawn to Limehouse, with assistance boarded the vessel, and found several cases containing muskets and bayonets. Upon turning to the , entries outwards at th e Custom - . Davies, had been entered as being destined fArGibraltar, hut her real destination'was Portugal,- for which. country the crew bad been engaged. The vessel.wasintended, on the following morning, at four o'clock, to be towed by steam-vessel down to Erith, where nearly 4 , 000- b&rrels of gunpowder were ready to be shipped.

Sulphuric ether is distilled from a • mixture of equal weights of alcohol and sulphuric acid (oil of vitriol). The vapour, when carried in what is technically called a worm through cold water, or otherwise cooled down by some other similar process, condenses (just as steam _is con.: . densed into water) into a colourless, transparent liquid of a penetrating, pleasant, lemon-like odour, and sweetish acrid-taste. This limpid liquid is sulphuric ether. There is no sulphur in its composition. __ BENEFICIAL EFFECTS OF SEWERAGE AND VENTILA ON.—" The London Hospital was badly drained, heated 1837 and 1838 respectively, t In 1839 the sewera,, nough for its inmates.

If he has filled an office of importance, or belonged to a learned profession, or served in the Assembly, and, above all, if he has been a member of the upper house of the legislature, and borne the title of honourable, it is recorded at large ; while, on the other hand, if he has derived his support from an honest trade, the dishonest tombstone refuses to mention it, lest it might wound the aristocratic feelings of his as piring posterity.
