RISE r THE PRICE OF GLAss.—A meeting of the flint-glass manufacturers of the United Kingdom was held at the Midland Hotel, Derby, on the 3d and 4th instant, when the ruinously low prices at which glass was selling were maturely considered, and it was resolved that an immediate advance was absolutely necessary, which advance was to come into operation on Monday, the 15th instant.

UNDERSTANDING that there are parties officiously t-.) engaged in going on board Vessels in which Taunton's Patent Purchase is applied to their Windlasses, and stat ing that the same is an infringement upon a Patent pos sessed by Mr. Pow, or by Tyzack and Co., and that actions will be brought against the owners of such vessels, the Patentee takes leave to inform his Friends and the Public that, though a verdict has been obtained against him at the late Ass'zes at Liverpool, upon a motion made for a new trial, a Rule was immediately granted, on the ground that the learned Judge misdirected the Jury. and the verdict being rgatnst the evidence. The Patentee is prepared to show, in proper time, by the most conclusive evidence of a great nnmbcr of mechanics and others, who h in a v v e e had nted o a p p m o u r e t u h n i a t n ie p s e r o i f o r m proving ode f h n i r s g Pate, ai i n t g t p h n a w t e b r e a li n a d s infringera n gwieni tanus t w it a a n n n a e n r y ; y a e n t d d , i a s lcsonv,ere thatd; ntehiatht e h r e A d l o r e . s p n n o w t nor Tyzack and Co. have any right to a Patent at all, but have both of them assumed a public right, and imposed upon the shipowners for a great number of years, and also are now combined together to oppress, by vexatious law proceedings, the undoubted right of the writer. Mr. Taunton hopes that those shipowners who have adopted his plan will consult their legal advisers as to the law of the case, (even provided he did infringe,) if any harm could apply to them, which be his assured will be answered to their satisfaction, and that it is not so. He also craves their assistance in putting a st o p t o suc h oppress i ve pro ceedings by shipowners declining to buy the articles sought to be sold at the expense of truth and honesty. He has no fear but, upon inquiry into the relative merits of the different patents, his appeal to Englishmen for fair play will not. be passed disregarded. Mr. TAUNTON offers to try the power and speed of his Patent Purchase against any other plan yet invented, so that the Public may have a fair opinion of the, representa tions made by himself and the other patentees who are tasking statements in the public papers.

Why is a joiner less handsome than his wife ?—Because he is a deal plainer. CHEEnruLNnss. —A cheerful heart paints the world as it finds it, like a sunny landscape ; the morbid mind depicts it like a stertile wilderness, pallid with thick vapours, and dark as the " shadow of death." It is (he mirror, in short, on which it is caught, which lends to the face of nature the aspect of its own turbulance or tran quility. Dr. Caldwell, an American writer on physical education, contends that a well-balanced brain contributes to long life, whilst a passionate and turbulent one tends much to abridge it ; and, if persons knew how many'dangers in life they, escaped by possessing mildness of temper, instead of the opposite disposition, how eager would be the aim of all men to cultivate it. THE PRODUCE OF LIGHT BY FRICTION.—This may be done by rubbing two pieces of loaf sugar together in the dark, but in a much greater degree by two pieces of silez or quartz. By this means one may distinguish the time of night by a watch ; but what is more surprising, the effect is produced equally strong by rubbing the pieces of quartz together under water. A LUCID DEFINITION.—" A case of monomania," said Mike, reading aloud —" What's monomania ?" " Arrah, dear, now don't you know? Suppose you were to borrow an article, without axing for it, arid then forget to put it back again, would not that be stealing?" "To be sure, Pat, it would, and nothing else." " Hush, darlint ! if you was rich, it would not be thieving at all— it would be monomania." AIIRRICAN CANDOUR.—I was amused by an idea giten me by an American in office. I asked how much his situation was worth; he answered six hundred dollars, besides stealings. This was frank and honest. In Eng lsnd the word would have bean softened down to perqui sites. I afterwards found that it was a common expres sion in the State to say a place was worth so much besides cheatage.—Marryatt. - Tut MONKEY'S Tarcx.—Lord Teynham's French cook so trained a monkey as to make him useful in pluck ing his poultry and winged game for the spit. The mon key was one day following his occupation at the open win dow of the back kitchen, and had just plucked one of a brace o f partridges, when a ha w k p ounce d upon i t an d carried it otf. Poor Pug was in a sad fright, well knowing t h e li c king that awaited him. Nil desperandum, however, was his motto. He p l ucked his courage up, and the re maining partridge, and laid the hir.i in the window. The hawk, pleased with the feast, returned for another tit-bit; when Mun seized him, and, in spite f his scratching anti screeching, plucked him alive, and laid him and the par tridge down before the co,l; and, with a goestnre stronger than language, seemed to :•ay. " It's all right ; there's your brace of birds—c fair exchange is no rebury." MISCELLANEOUS. Mr. Malcolm, who formerly represented Boston, was the pureliasdr of Lord Monson's Lincolnshire estate, for 57,100 guineas. The United States Supreme Court has decided the famous case tf Gem-ral G.Unes and his wife in theirf ivour. This makes G-ueral Gaines worth about 1 5 ,090,000 dais. in property in Nrw Orleans —the richest man in this country.—New York Herald. REGULARITY. — On the first Thursday after Good Friday, four years ago, the Rev. Mr. B u tt er fi eld married a couple et the parish church. Every year since ' on the first Thursday after Good Friday, the worthy couple have presented a child for admission by baptism into the church, the ceremony on each occasion b e i ng per f ormed by the gentleman who united them in the bonds of holy matrimony. —Bradford Observer. NATIONAL CHARACTERS.—Ina well-known house in London, the rendezvous of all foreigners, as well as En glish and Irish, a Frenchman thought to amuse the com pop at the expense of an intelligent and pod-humoured Swiss. "Your countrymen" said he," serve under all European monarchs." "It is true," replied the Swiss; "we are poor, and we fight for that we stand the most in need of, money, or pay, call it as you will; " hut," said he to the Frenchman, " what do you Wit fcr?" " Ho nour," exclaimed the impetuous Frenchman. " Well then," said the Swiss, " we both, it seems, fight for what we stand in need of most—we for money, you for honour. DIABOLICAL MURDERS IN FRANCE.—On the night of the 13th inst., the habitation of a widow, named Mercier, residing with her daughter, in the commune of Tayae, was discovered to be on fire. No cry was heard to alarm the neighbours, the glare of the fire being the first inti mation they had of what was passing. The remains of both bodies were afterwards found completely calcined, and amid the flesh of the d tughtrr the physicians found 29 grains of shot. It is supposed that these women were robbed and murdered, and that the premises were then I set on fire to conceal the crime. Three men were per ceived going away when the fire was at its highest. REVOLUTIONS OF THE CURRENCY.—The circulation of the Bank of England has four revolutions in a year, being at its highest point in those months in which the public dividends , are paid. The country circulation re volves once in a year, being at its highest point in April, and its lowest in August. The circulation of Scotland revolves once in a year, being at its lowest point in March, and its highest in November. The circulation of Ireland also revolves once in a year, being at its lowest point in September, and its highest in January. These changes are not capricious or accidental, but are determined by the recurrence of the seasons and the state of trade in their respective districts.—Foreiyn and Colonial Review. THE RECAL OF LORD ELLENDOROUGH.—The precise reasons for the recall of Lord Ellenborough by the Court of Directors of the East India Company were, on Satur day, the subject of much discussion in political circles. Nothing official has yet transpired to satisfy the public curiosity on this point ; but we understand that the strong measure of the Directors proceeds, not so much from any objections to the general policy of Lord Ellenborough, as from considerations of minor importance. It is said that the bearing of his Excellency towards the Court was not marked, in their opinion, by sufficient deference to their high authority; that he did not, in fact, accommodate himself enough to their wishes and expectations in mat ters partaking rather of the character of detail in his go vernment than of general direction.—Observer. RATS IN THE HEBRlDES.—Generations have passed away without seeing a rat on the small island of Tarinsay, on the west coast of Harris. An iunumeraile swarm of these annoying and destructive vermin has of late spread over the island, notwithstanding the efforts made by Mr. Macdonald, the tackman, to extirpate them. They ap pear to be increasing so fast that they threaten to overrun the whole island, and keep violent possession of it. They are supposed to have come from the islal,d of Soay, which lies at the distance of about three miles from Tarinsay, and into which the Earl of Dunmore ordered rabbits to be sent. Soon after this, the rats, which were formerly very numerous in the island of Soay, completely disappeared, Having removed in it body to the neighbouring island of Trinsay, from which they are not inclined to make their departure in a hurry.—S'colchnsan. FRIGHTFUL MURDER AT ROUEN.—A heinous crime was committed in the night of Wednesday last, at Duclair, near Rouen. Three men made their way into the house of a butcher, named Pecot, and immediately killed him by blows with a hammer. They then beat his wife with the same instrument and severely wounded her, but pro mised to spare her life if she told them where they could find alt the money in the house. They tuok all there was, 30f. ; but, disappointed at the smallness of the amount. they renewed chair brutal violence upon Madame Pecot, and, as they believed, put an end to her life. They then set fire to the house, hoping thus to destroy the traces of their bloody deed. But Madame Pecot, though she had received ten desperate blows with the hammer on her head and breast, had only fainted. She revived before the flames reached her, and had just strength enough to drag herself out of the house. The light of the flames alarmed the neighbours, who came and carried her into safety. The house was totally destroyed, and the calcined body of the husband was found among its ashes. infor mation was immediately laid before the magistrates, and gendarmes were sent in search of the murderers. A. NATIVE GENIUS.—One of the acquaintances of a New York Editor, whilst travelling in the " far west," was at a loss what course to steer, and rejoiced when a farm house presented itself before him. Near the road was a tall, raw-boned, overgrown, lantern-jawed boy, probably 17 years of age. digging potatoes. The traveller drew up the reigns of his horse, snd said, " Hollo," my good friend, can you inform me how far it is to the next house?" Jonathan started up, and replied, " Flollo, yourselft— how'd dew ?—wall. I guess I can. ' Taint near so far as it used to be afore they cut the Woods away—then it was generally reckoned four mile, but now the sun shrivels up the road, and ti,n't make more'n tew. The fust house you come to. tho' is a barn, and the next is a hay Stack ; but old Hoskins's is a beyant. You'll be sure to meet his gals long afore you get there; 'tarnal romping critters, they plague our folks moN'o little. His sheep get into our orchard. Dad sets the dog arter the sheep, and me ' arter the gals—and the way he makes the wool, and 1 the petticoats fly, is a sin to snakes " Lee you are in clined to be facetious, young man—pray tell me how it happens that one of your lags is shorter than the other? " I never allows any o ,e to meddle with my grass tanglers, mistur ; but seein' it's you, I'll tell you. I was born so at my ticlar request, so that when I hold plough I can go with one leg in the furrow, and t'other on land, uud not lop over." " Much obliged—good bye." VESTRIES BILL.—An apparently well devised measure has been brought into the House of Commons by Mr. Stafford O'Brien, M.P., and Mr. E. B. Denison, M.P., for the purpose of preventing in future the recurrence of those disgraceful scenes which are too often to be witnes sed in parish vestries, and which defile and desecrate the sacred edifices to which they are attached. It is en titled, " A Bill to Prohibit the Holding of Vestries in Churches," and contains 13 clauses. After the close of the present year, 1844. no vestry or other meeting is to be held in the established churches or chapels of any parish whose population exceeds 1,000 souls, hut power is given to appoint other places of meeting somewhat more fit to be turned into beargardens, than the buildings at. tached to the house of God. By the 11th clause, it is dis tinctly enacted, that if any vestry or other meeting be held in either church or chapel, contrary to the prosisi- ons of this act, all proceeding' sat such meeting shall be absolutely null and valid in law. The act is not to extend to Scotland, nor is it to affect or invalidate any ecclesiasti cal law of the united church of England and Ireland, or to destroy any of the rights or powers belonging toany bishop of any diocese, or to any archdeacon,chancellor official, &c. COUNTY TREASURERS.—Mr. Miles, the member for East Somersetahire, has moved for a return of the ab stracts of the accounts of the several county treasurers in England and Wales, for the years ending Michaelmas, 1841, and Michaelmas, 1842. From this return, the pre paration of which must have occasioned some trouble, inasmuch as it forms a complete mass of figures, are de rived the following particulars :—lt appears t the gross total receipts of the various county treasurers during the year ended Michaelmas. 1841, amounted, in England, to £1,020,429, and in Wales, to £57,982, constituting a grand total, in England and Wales, of £1,078,412. The total receipts during the year ended Michaelmas, 1812, amounted, in England, to the sum of £1,083,974, and in Wales to £53,788, making altogether the sum total of £1,137,762. The gross total d'sbursements of the said county treasurers during the years 1840-41, amounted, in England, to £902,823, and in Wales, to 52,373, o: alto gether to the sum of £955,197. The gross total disburse. ments from the year 1841-42 (ending at Michaelmas in the aq-mentioned year), amounted, in England, to £996,620, and in Wales. to £54,808, or altogether, £1,051,428. Thus the whole of the balances remaining in the hands of the various county treasurers of England and Wales amounted, in 1841, to £123,215, and in 1812, to £86,334 only. ►SALARIES OF THE MINISTERS OF STATE AND THE JUDGES.—The following is a return of the salaries of the Ministers of State and of the Judges : First Lord of the Treasury (Premier) Secretary of State for the Home Department Secretary of State for Foreign Affaire Secretary of State for the Colonies The Chancellor of the Exchequer..
