RD. RADCLIFFE, Clerk of We Peace. Town-hall, 22d January, 1840. CHARGE OF ASSAULT. A glib-tongued girl. of about seventeen or eighteen years of age, appeared before Messrs. Rushton and Booth to pre fer a charge of assault against a young boy. The gist of the accusation was, that the boy had struck the complainant on the mouth with a stone which he held in his hand ; but the young woman, not content with a plain statement of the mat ter, went on at much lengths to aggravate the aggravation. In the midst of her complaint, she was interrupted by the mother of the boy at the bar, who indicated, in a pretty loud tone, that the complainant was uttering anything but truth. Mr. Rushton.—Come forward, if vou have anything to say. There now stepped into the witness-box a female Falstaff, in a state of great excitement, and, the New Testament having been placed in her hand, preparatory to her being sworn, she began to devour it with kisses, before Mr. Shuttle worth had repeated the words of the oath, She first kissed the book on one side, then on the other, and, saying, " 1 am not afraid of swearing both ways ; the Almighty knows that I shall only tell the truth," began to turn the Testament in all directions, and to imprint upon it most enthusiastic kisses. Mr. Rushton.—Are you drunk ? Have you been drink ing ? Vitness.—No ; I have not. I'm trembling, sir ; I was never in such a place before, nor my poor boy either, and I hope we won't be again. The oath having been administered, the witness was asked to state what she had to say with respect to the charge against her son. She replied, " Well, sir, I will tell you—it is a false charge altogether, sir—l live in Union-street, sir—l am telling the truth, lam indeed, sir. I wouldn't tell you a lie for alt the world —no, sir. lam all of a tremble, sir. I was selling fowls in the market all day yesterday, sir. I have had two pennyworth this morning, I won't deny that. Dear me, I'm very tremblesome. That is my boy, sir. As to this woman, (the complainant,) she keeps a real common house. I don't care she does ; you may put me in gaol for seventeen years, but my boy is innocent. He isn't in the market with me ; he's a good lad, sir. Put him back till to morrow, sir, and then you shall know all. I'm well known in the market, and all my neighbours can depreciate my cha racter. It isn't true, sir. There, you man, you tell him; you can speak better than me. The man pointed to came forward, and stated that he had seen the complainant first strike the mother of the prisoner. Mr. Rushton.—Discharge the lad. THEFT BY A SERVANT. Margaret Smith, a servant to Mr. John Lane, publican, Vauxhall-road, was charged with having stolen some articles of wearing apparel from the house of her. employer. The prisoner, it appeared by the evidence, had been five months in the service of Mr. Lane, and had on Monday last left the house without notice or leave. Next morning Mrs. Lane, on going into the childrens' room, missed some clothing, two sheets, and a number of other articles. A constable was applied to, and the prisoner's lodgings were searched. She was found at home, and, on being questioned. denied having taken any thing. The principal part, however, of the missing clothing, &c. was found in the house, as well as a number of other articles, which had not before been missed from her master's house. The prisoner, who is a middle-aged woman, and a widow, was committed for trial at the sessions. We understand that, such was the confidence reposed on her, her mistress had made arrangements to take a cottage in the country, where she (the prisoner) might take care of the children, whom she wished to remove for a time from the bustle of the house.

There isnothini more remarkable in the social habits of the present day, and more particularly in those of the past century, than a general disregard to the maxims of prudence in regard to health and enjoyment. Hence the vast multi tudes who, having acquired the portion of an enfeebled con stitution, are doomed to the class of habitual invalids. Their minds anxious, unsteady, or sluggish, and their bodies weak, the natural functions of life are discharged laboriously, with pain and difficulty. For this state of nervous derange ment, the celebrated CORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM will be found to have peculiar efficacy, strengthening the lan guid system and shedding new hope on the mind. A perse verance in its use has been the happy means of relieving many thousands, and of restoring a great number to the per manent enjoyment of life. It is remarkable for its efficacy in all disorders of the digestive organs, and is especially recom mended to those who, from the irregularities of youthful age, habits of studious application, or a life of pleasure, have fallen into a despondent state of mind, and that distressing train of symptoms commonly denominated the NERVOUS. In such persons the mental are not less enfeebled than the corporeal, and to them a remedy that acts with efficacy, with out interfering with domestic habits, is peculiarly desirable. Its primary object is to relieve those persons who, by an immoderate indulgence in their passions, have ruined their constitutions and brought on a perfect tabis dorsalis ; or, in their way to the consummation of that deplorable malady, the affected with any of those previous symptoms that betray its approach, as the various affections of the nervous system, obstinate gleets, involuntary emissions, excesses, irregu larity, weakness, total impotency, ba rrennes s. &c. But the relief the ORDIAL BALM OF SYRIACUM ge nerally administers is not confined to these alone : the valetudinarian by birth, who has received from his parents the inheritance of a diseased and unprolific frame—the deli cate female, whom an immured and inactive life, together with an immoderate use of tea and other weak and watery aliments, has, without any fault of hers, brought on all the calamitous symptoms of a consumptive habit, and are, with out timely assistance, sinking into a premature grave ! Such as these, under Divine Influence, the Cordial Balm of Sv riacum will restore to the enjoyment of all the comforts of life. It is universally admired, being pleasant to the taste and smell, gently astringes the fibres of the stomach, and gives that proper tensity which a good digestion requires. To the young it will afford lasting health, strength, and spirits, in place of lassitude and debility, and to the aged and infirm it will assuredly furnish great relief and comffirt, by gently and safely invigorating the system. It will not give immortality, but if it be in the power of medicine to gild the autumn of declining years, and calmly and serenely protract the close of life beyond its narrow span, this restorative is capable of effecting this grand desideratum. The Cordial is highly esteemed in the East and West In dies for nourishing and invigorating the nervous system and acting as a general restorative on debilitated constitutions, arising from bilious complaints contracted in hot climates. The studious as well as the sedentary part of the community should never be without the Cordial Balm of Syriac:4m, which removes diseases of the head, invigorates the mind, mproves the memory, and enlivens the imagination.

Captain Heath, commander of the Higginson, was sum moned by the late under-steward of the above vessel to show cause why he refused to pay the latter a balance of wages al leged to be due to him for services during a voyage to Ma deira. &c. Mr. Davenport attended for the plaintiff, and Mr. Deane for the defendant. The former proved his ser vices, and stated, in reply to questions put by his solicitor, that the vessel took out passengers to Madeira, who were attended by servants. The passengers used the silver plate belonging to the vessel, and it was frequently in their pos session. Mr. Deane put it to the plaintiff whether he had not lost some spoons on the voyage out. The plaintiff de nied that he had lost anything. The principal steward, a negro, was called. He stated that he had charge of the plate, and it was the duty of the under-steward to wash it each night. He (witness) usually counted it each night. One night, five nights before they arrived at Madeira, he did not count it, and, next morning, he asked the plaintiff if the plate were right. He at first hesitated, but afterwards con fessed that he had accidentally thrown out three silver tea spoons and a silver tablespoon into the sea. The captain proved a similar admission on the part of the plaintiff. Mr. Deane contended, that, by the sth and 6th William IV., the captain was entitled to deduct the value of these spoons, which he estimated at twenty shillings. The plaintiff denied that he had ever thrown the spoons overboard, or even ad mitted that he had done so. The magistrates were of opinion, that the evidence of the captain and steward was sufficient to prove that such admission had been made. Mr. Davenport thought there was no proof of negiigence. Mr. Rushton thought it was the grossest negligence for a man to throw silver spoons overboard from a bucket. It was ordered that the balance of wages should be paid, deducting 20s for the property thus negligently lost. MONDAY. - John Hines was placed at the bar on a charge of having stolen a bonnet and shawl from the house of Mr. John Anderson, publican, of Hanover-street, under the following circumstances : Mathias Glyn, policeman, No. 176, stated that about a quarter to twelve o'clock on Saturday night, he was on' duty in Hanover-street, near Mr. Anderson's house. He saw the prisoner near the window, the shutter of which he lifted up, and took out a bonnet and shawl, with which he was walking away when witness seized him. Mr. Anderson came out to his assistance, and the prisoner was taken to bridewell, where sixpence in copper was found upon him. John Anderson, the landlord of the public house, said there were outside shutters to the window, hung upon the sash frame. There was a desk under the window inside the room. He saw his granddaughter, Eliza Malcolm, place her bonnet and shawl upon the desk on Saturday night, about half-past eleven ; and about a quarter to twelve he missed them. He ran out and found them in the prisoner's possession. The prisoner offered no defence, and he was committed for trial at the next sessions. ESTABLISIjMENT OF AN EAR INSTITUTION. On Friday, a meeting was held at the Clarendon Rooms, for the purpose of establishing, as a public charity, the Ear Institution founded by Mr. Hugh Neill, surgeon, whose suc cessful treatment of, and able treatises upon, diseases of the eye and ear have made him extensively known, not only among the profession, but to the public generally. There were about twenty gentlemen present, amongst whom were The Rev. Jonathan Brooks, senior Rector, Dr. Formby, Physician to the Liverpool Infirmary, Mr. Bickersteth, Sur geon to the Liverpool Infirmary, Rev. Dr. Ralph, Rev. T. Bold, Rev. R. L. Townshend, Capt. Cleather, Robertson Gladstone, Esq., C. S. Parker, Esq., W. F. Hutchinson, Esq., S. Avison, Esq., W. Oxley, Esq., W. Comer, Esq., R. C. Dawson, Esq., J. Huddlestone, Esq., &a - . The Rev. J. Brooks, senior Rector, took the chair. The Rev. CHAIRMAN observed that he had great pleasure in complying with the wishes of those gentlemen who bad re quested him to take the chair on that occasion, because from all the information before him, he had every reason to be lieve that an institution like the one proposed that day would be of very essential benefit to a great number of suffering in dividuals in the town of Liverpool. He understood that not , less than seven hundred and seventy cases of disease con nected with the ear had come under the care of Mr. Neill during the last six months, a fact which was of itself a suffi cient reason for the establishment of an institution to relieve those who were suffering so great a deprivation. Dr. FORMBY moved the first resolution, which proposed that an institution should be formed for the cure of diseases of the ear. Mr. C. S. PARKER seconded the resolution.—Carried unanimously. Mr. BICKERSTETII moved the second resolution, in doing which he observed that he had witnessed Mr.. Neill's mode of treatment, and it appeared to him to be a great improve ment. His plan was likely to be of service in cases of deaf ness produced from disease of the Eustachian tube. The poor would not be able to avail themselves of the advantages of the new method, unless there was a public institution, such as that proposed to be formed. He thought that the insti tution was likely to be of great benefit to the town and neigh bourhood. The Rev. T. BOLD seconded the resolution.—Carried. Mr. ROBERTSON GLADSTONE moved the third resolution, conferring a vote of thanks ou Mr. Neill for the zeal and .ability he has exhibited in introducing into the town improve ments in aural surgery, and proposing that he should be the surgeon of the institution. Mr. W. COMER seconded the reso l u ti on , as one w h o was in hope of benetitting from the ability of Mr. Neill ; for there was a member of his family who for twenty years had been of with deafness, and who had been under the care of Dr. Curtis without having received the slightest benefit. He believed that the institution would be of very great benefit, not only to the poor, but in directing the attention of medi cal men to the subject of deafness, and to the new mode of operation. Mr. C. referred to the institution of the deaf and dumb, with which he was connected, and expressed ahope that some of the pupil s m i g ht b e b ene fi te d b y M r . Neill's mode of treatment. The resolution having been adopted by the meeting, Mr. NEILL begged leave to return his thanks to the gen tlemen present for the way in which they had been pleased to meet his views, and for the manner in which his name had been mentioned in the resolution. He stated that the study of diseases of the ear had been pursued by a number of the medical profession for selfish purposes, turning it to an ad vantage to which it ought not to be turned, and making us e of quackish means to overcome diseases which required a very different treatment. most of the diseases connected with the ear arose from the stoppage of the Eustachian tube, and until lately •they had not been able to reach that tube. The treatment of diseases connected with that part of the anatomy of the human frame had been almost abandoned by the regular members of the profession, and left completely in the hands of quacks. But now the German and French surgeons, by their handiwork,-. had enabled the profession to overcome the difficulty of reaching the Eustachiun tube, and they were, consequently, in possession of means decidedly sufficient for overcoming most cases of deafness. So simple were the means, that it was wonderful they had not before been discovered ; and it was still more strange that, having been discovered by a non-professional man about a hundred years ago, they.should have been allowed to be forgotten. It was not likely, however, that they would be forgotten here after. The operation was simple and produced no uneasiness or pain. There was one thing he should like to be under stood. From the remarks he had made, it would be seen that there was not amongst the profession in England much knowledge of the diseases of the ear ; and he asserted dis tinctly; that there was not a single work in the English lan guage which treated of such diseases in a philosophical man ner, or in a way from which surgeons could derive advantage. Ile wished also to state that his anxiety for the formation of this institution arose not only from the wish of obtaining a school for himself, where he might obtain the information that he could not derive from books, but that the members of the profession might take advantage of it, and make of it a school for themselves. He had, at the Medical Institu tion, given them a distinct invitation to come and see the process ; many had done so ; and he now publicly repeated the invitation, and he hoped that they would take advantage of it. He would take care to classify the cases, so that medi cal men might draw their own deductions, and thus be enabled to obtain information whisk could not he drawn from books. The Rev. R. L. TOWNSEND moved the fourth resolution, containing a list of officers for the ensuing year. Mr. AVISON seconded the resolution, which was adopted. A vote of thanks to the Rev. Chairman was then passed, and the meeting terminated. It is said that the firmness of Mr. Chief Baron Woulfe has defeated the nefarious project of placing O'Connell on the judicial bench. Mr. Jaudon has concluded arrangements with Messrs. Hope and Company, of Amsterdam, for a loan of £450,000 on account of the United States' Bank. The price is 90, the interest 5 per cent., and the principal to be repaid in rive years. We hear from such sources as would fully satisfy us as to the fact, if it were not one which'we feel bound to regard as utterly incredible, that it is intended to exclude the foreign ministers resident in this country from the Chapel Roy a l on the solemnisation of th e Queen's marriage. Should this be attempted by ministers and their bed-chamber confederates, an indignity will have been offered to every European sove reign, without a single exception, that offered to the Queen of England being unquestionably the greatest.—Morning Herald.

" We know this is a good book, and, what is more and better, we feel that it is a TRUE book. Every page bears upon it the impress of truth and sincerity of purpose. We have read many works upon the same subject, but none with so much pleasure or so much instruction as we have derived from that now before us. Mr. Ogle's work is a great and valuable accession to the store we already possess of colonial information. To all who have either motive or inclination to emigrate, we can truly recommend its perusal. The map of the colony is the best extant, and the views of some of the settlements are highly picturesque."—Salisbury Herald. "The most valuable, because the most practically useful por tion of this work, is that copious department which is devoted to an account of the actual condition of the colony of Western Australia, or, as it is better and more specifically designated, Sw.an River. This account is compiled and drawn up with so much care, and from such apparently unquestionable sources of information, that it may be safely depended upon as a ground for the adoption of individual views as to the adaptation of the colony to the wants and circumstances of the various classes of persons who may be contemplating emigration."— New Monthly. " To those who were either present at Mr. Ward's motion upon the subject of 'emigration' in the last session, or to those who have read the able debate which that motion occasioned, the work of Mr. Ogle respecting the colony of Western Aus tralia must prove exceedingly interesting. It is a compila tion of facts which seem to have been collected with great care ; and if the authorities upon which Mr. Ogle relies be trustworthy, no one who reads this book can entertain the slightest doubt that the Western Australian colony presents the greatest advantages to the emigrant, whatever maybe his circumstances." —Morning Chronicle.

ADDRESS FROM THE PROPRIETOR TO TIIE PUBLIC. _ _ _ TEN years have now elapsed since this Magazine was first started ; and the Proprietor thinks that be will not be liable to the charge of unnecessary intrusion if he, for the first time in his own person, ventures thus to address the public. The Magazine which bears his name was ushered into the world in 1830, without a single advertisement or preliminary announcement; and it has, with constantly increasing suc cess, worked its way onward to 1840, solely by the public favour, accorded to its undeniable honesty of criticism, its unflinching boldness and consistency in politics, and the literary talent which Ae, without vanity, may say it has always displayed from the !beginning. The stirring period in which its first years of existence were cast, no doubt con tributed, to the advancement of a Magazine which never scrupled to express , uncompromising opinions on passing events (events, as all must admit, of vital, lasting, and spreading importance) and which, from its undeviating course, could be always counted upon, whether as ally or enemy, in every emergency. It would, however, be unjust to the numerous contributors of the Magazine—and the list comprises men of the highest talent in every department of literature, and some among them di ame t r i ca ll y oppose d to its avowed party feelings—if its success were attributed wholly to the position it has taken in the political world. It would be invidious to select any names ; but to all persons ever so slightly acquainted with our literature, many of de served eminence and distinction will immediately occur • and what is of more consequence to th e rea d ers , t h e acknowledg ed literary merit of its articles will, without reference to any name whatever, be sufficient to account for the favour which it has attained, on grounds wholly distinct from those of party advocacy. The Proprietor has not lost (except by death, which. alas ! in the course of nature must, in the period of ten years, have invaded the ranks of his friends) one of his original contri butors, but he has been favoured by the support of many others of talent and distinction. In literary ability, he hopes, therefore, that his succeeding volumes will improve upon those which have passed ; or, at least, they will not fail to maintain the distinction which the Magazine has already earned. With respect to politics, it is probable that the years now coining on will be of deeper interest even than those which have just elapsed. He does not wish to assume the character of a political writer ; but, in common with all who can read omens in what is going forward, he feels that an eventful time is at hand. In all the emergencies that may he anticipated from the seed sown by the Whigs during ten years, FRASER'S MAGAZINE will continue to pursue the same right onward course in the " fortie's" which it has main tained in the " thirties," turning neither to the right hand or to the left,—not fainting in heart, nor wearied in exertion, to maintain, to the utmost of its ability, the cause of Conserva tism—the cause of Church and State—the cause of God and our country. All who are connected with it feel that they have a right to expect that this promise may not be deemed idle or insincere ' • their conduct in y ears pas t a ff or di ng a f a i r guarantee for what their conduct will be in years to come. Under these circumstances the Proprietor looks forward, with more than hope, to a still increasing circulation. The number of volumes, however—twenty —to which his Maga zine has extended, opposes, from their cost, an objection in the minds of many to commencing subscriptions to a work, of which, without considerable expense, they cannot obtain a complete set. The proprietor, therefore, acting under the advice of many friends, and yielding to several applications made to him on the subject, has reduced the price from £l5, the present cost of a full set, to £7 lOs ; for which he offers twenty large volumes of carefully written articles on all the subjects which have engrossed public attention during the last ten years ; papers on the state, the strength, the relative position of parties. To Conservative statesmen, of such value as almost to be indispensable, and to their antagonists of no small service, as showing the points on which we think they can be most dangerously assailed. Essays of high nterest in the Religious world, on the Protestant Church Establishment Question; classical translations and disquisi tions of the highest order of learning and taste ; criticism in abundance, on contemporary works and authors, on paint ing, sculpture, music, the, drama, forming together a com plete conspectus of the literature and art of the time ; poetry, tales, biographical sketches, antiquities, pleasantries, jeux d'esprit and all such other matters, grave or gay, as can be expected in miscellanies of this kind, executed generally in such a munner as to reflect credit on the genius, invention, research, or wit of their writers, and calculated throughout to nourish every virtuous feeling and religious sentiment, and otherwise advance the moral welfare and happiness of mankind.

ARTIFICIAL TEETH SUPPLIED WITHOUT WIRES, SPRINGS, OR CLASPS. LOOSE TEETH FASTENED. And filling Decayed Teeth With Mineral Marnioraturn. MoN s. LE DRAY and CO., Surgeon-Dentists, respect fully inform the Nobility, Gentry, a n d I n h a bi tants of Liver pool and its vicinity, that they have opened an Establishment permanently at No. 38, SEEL-STREET, eight doors from Berry-street. They continue to fill up the cavities of De cayed Teeth with their Mineral Marmoratum, without the least pain, heat, or pressure ; it is placed into t'he cavity in an almost liquid state, and in a few seconds gets hard, pre venting and curing the Tooth-ache, arresting all further pro gress of decay, and rendering the operation of extraction unnecessary. The Mineral not only converts a mere shell into a sound and useful tooth, but, by completely stopping up the cavity, prevents effectually that unpleasant taint of he breath which invariably accompanies a decayed tooth. Among the various disorders of the Teeth and Gums. there are none more destructive in their effects, or more generally prevalent, than Scurvy ; and it is well known that the loss of Teeth arises more from this cause than any other. It affects individuals of all ages and of all constitutions, and is the primary cause of Tooth-ache and decay. To those so affected, Mons. LE DRAY and Co. have to inform them, that they can effectually remove this destructive complaint by a single application, without the slightest pain. Artificial and Natural Teeth, of surpassing beaaty, fixed from one to a complete set, without extracting the roots or giving any pain, without springs, wires, or li ga t ures, an swering all the purposes of Mastication and Articulation, remaining perfectly secure in their places, and may be taken out and replaced by the wearer with the greatest facility,— at the following Paris charges : A single Artificial Tooth £o 10 0 A complete Set A complete Set of Natural Teeth, on fine gold plate .... 15 0 0 • An entire Set of Natural or Terro Metal lic Teeth, highly finished, in the first style, with fine gold sockets, usually charged 40 guineas Loose Teeth fastened, arising either from age, disease, or mercury, and deficiencies of palate effectually remedied. Artificial Teeth out of repair, remodelled to fit the mouth, and restored equal in beauty and durability to their original state, Attendance from Nine till Seven, and on Sundays from Nine till Two. Cs4',"' For the convenience of country patients, Monsieur La DRAY and Co. are enabled to fix a partial or complete set of Teeth at one sitting, without the least pain or incon venience.

A DINNER Two HUNDRED YEARS AGO.—Home from my office to my lord's lodgings, where my wife had got ready a very fine dinner, viz., a dish of marrow bones ; a leg of mutton ; a loin of veal ; a dish of fowl, three pullets, and a dozen of larks, all in a dish ; a great tart ; a neat's tongue ; a dish of anchovies ; a dish of prawns and cheese.—Pepys' Diary. 1 TUNNEL THROUGH THE ALPS.—M. Vanino Volta, the engineer of Como, who, in conjunction with M. Bruschetti, of Milan, obtained, in 1837, from the Austrian government, a privilege of 50 years for the construction of a railroad be tween Milan and Como, is now negociating with the Swiss cantons of Grisons and St. Gall. an enterprise which would vie in magnitude with the Thames tunnel, viz., the piercing through the Grisons Alps. Impressed with the commercial importance of the passage of the Splugen, and, at the same time, with the various obstacles which it presents, he thinks it possible to pierce through that mountain, and establish, in the passage thus effected, a railroad, the northern portion of which would end either at Wallenstadt, or even at Scho merckon, on the Lake of Zurich, and the southern should be connected with the Como and Milan railroad. M. Volta, reckoning that 30 years will he required to execute the works, demands an exclusive privilege.of 100 years, with liberty to establish companies, in order to procure funds, or to transfer his privilege to other parties.—Mechanics' Magazine. A ROYAL. MARRIAGE SPEECH.—Among many instances of the great change of manners which 170 years have pro duced in England, perhaps few are more striking than the difference between the style of past and present speeches from the throne. Those of Charles the Second, in au age scarcely thought less witty than their own, have a familiarity, a bluntness, and a homeliness, which make them sound oddly in our ears. The following is from Charles's speech, at the opening of his second parliament in 1661 :—" I will not conclude without telling you some news—news that I think will be very acceptable to you and therefore I should think myself unkind and illnatured if I did not impart it to you. I have been put in mind by my friends that it was now time to marry, and I have thought so myself ever since I came into England. But there appeared difficulties enough in the choice, though many overtures have been made to me • and if I should ne ver marr y un til I cou ld make such a c hoice, against which there could be no fore sight of any inconvenience that may ensue, you would live to see me an old bachelor, which I think you do not desire to do. I can now tell you, not only that lam resolved to marry, bnt to whom lam resolved to marry. If God please, it is with the daughter of Portugal. * * And I will make all the haste I can to fetch you a Queen hi ther, who I doubt not will bring great blessings with her to me and you."—ln the same session Charles finished one of his speeches thus .—" The mention of my wife's arrival puts me in mind to desire you to put that compliment upon her that the entrance into the town may be with more decency than the ways will now suffer it to be ; and to that purpose I pray you would quick despatch and pass such laws as are before you, in order to the amending of those ways, in order that she may notfind Whitehall surrounded with water. — Morning Herald. THE MISERIES OF A CORPULENT LADY AT SEA.—Our cabin has two boxes in it called births ; tho' coffins would be nearer the thing, for you think more of your latter end at sea a great deal. One of these is situated over the other like two shelves, and these together make what they call a state room. What would they think at the real palace of such a state-room as this—of just a closet and no more, for the Queen and her mother to sleep in—and no dressing-room nor nothing—but you shall hear all. My birth is the upper most one, and I have to climb up to it, putting oue foot on the lower one, and the other away out on the washhand stand, which is a great stretch and makes it very straining— t hen I lift one knee on the birth and roll in sideways. This is very inconvenient to a woman of my size and very dan ge xous. Last night I put my foot on Mrs. Brown's face, as she- laid asleep close to the edge of the lower one, and nearly put out her eye ; and I have torn all the skin of my knees, and then I have a large black spot where I have been hurt and my head is swelled. To dismount is another feat of hors, Imanship only fit for a sailor. You can't sit up for the floor overhead; so you have to turn round, and roll your legs o at first, and then hold on till you touch bottom some where, and then let yourself down upright. It is dreadful work, and no t very decent for a delicate female, if the steward hap pens to come in when you are in the act this way. I don't know e which is hardest, to get in or get out a birth —both are the mos t difficult things in the world, and I shall be glad when I am done with it. lam obliged to dress in bed afore I I save it, and nobody that hasn't tried to put on their clothes l ring down, can tell what a task it is. Lacing stays behind y, nir back, and you on your face nearly smothered with the 1 iedclothes, and feeling for the eyelet hole with one hand, and trying to put the tag in with the other, while you are rolling: about from side to side is no laughing mat • matter. l'esterday I fastened on the pillow to my bustle by mistake in the hurry, and never knew it till people laughed, and said the' sea agreed with me, I bad grown so fat; but putting on stockings is the worst, for there aint room to stoop forward ; so you have to bring your foot to you, and stretching out on your back, lift up your leg till you can reach it, and then drag it on. Corpulent people can't do this so easy, I can tell you. It always gives me the cramp, and takes away my breath. You would pity me, if you could conceive, John ; but you can't —no, nobody but a woman can tell what a female suffers being confined in a birth at sea. —The Bag of the Great Western. ' THE HOUSE, OF COMMONS' KITCHEN.—On the evening of the Canada Debate I was invited by an honourable mem, ber to dine in the Members' Room, attached to the House ' having been highly amused with the style of doing things in the refectory of the Commons, perhaps a description may not be uninteresting. There are three rooms, the innermost of which is styled, by way of distinction, the Kitchen : in this, as most humble, it is considered most fashionable to dine, and therefore it is more frequented than the others. These rooms and their furniture are of the most simple and homely description ; the chairs are of oak, very plain, and the tables (each of which will accommodate six persons) a re of white pine, unpainted. The onlyardeiesloioeskesd at oepryseosdinbehleoenttidmaroeef, beef-steaks and mutton -chops ;the y hqoumaeli!byre o home-brewed in e the room over a charcoal fire in . ibe shortest and certainly cannot be excelled either i i n ekl t e h s e , the ir their cookery. These, wit h p otatoes , beer, and brown bread, c on s titute the usual repast. Wine twang ordered, was brought in a plain, uncut decanter, with a bottle cork doing duty _for a....stopper ; fro m the general as pect o f the place, and the affectation of s i mplicity in all things about it, there seemed an att empt to cheat one into a belief, that he was seated in a clean, comfortable, quiet inn, i n some remote country village, whence he might draw a contrast between his plain, but hot and excellent dinner, and the luxurious profusion of a London fashionable entertain ment. Opposite me sat Gisborne, the member who had jest taken his seat for Carlow, after one of the mos t pro tracted scrutinie s on record—the contest cost himfifteen thousand, he said, and he intended publishing the bills for the edification of the public.. Beyond this stubborn Whig was seated the Right Hon. Spring Rice, Chancellor of the Exchequer, taking snuff at an enormous rate, and most plentifully bedaubing his face with it w hil e wa iting for a steak. On my left was D'lsraeli, the author of Vivian Grey and member for Maidstone, with his singular head, and long jet black h a i r h ang i ng profusely , over his Micmac face, quietly discussing a mutton-chop. Our steak was just . corning on the board when a sharp-toned bell rung violently, and in an instant the members rushed out of the eating-room into the House—it was the speaker's bell, and the signal a division. All left except D'lsraeli and a staid Scotch member with whom I believe he paired off for the occasion. It was the final decision on the Canada Bill, and ins few minutes the members returned to their dinners, laughing and jokin g as if nothing had happened.—Letter from a New Brunwick Deputy in London. ..MtR47 #rxei.ez_ rCE.-FRIDAY. pvtlz lattbitrations.
