Pottr,2. WHERE IS HE? And where is he ? not by the side Of her whose wants he loved to tend ; Nor o'er those valleys wandering wide, Where sweetly lost, he oft would wend! That form belov'd he marl:s no more, Those scenes admired no more shall see ; Those scenes are lovely as before, And she as fair, but where is he ? No, no : the radiance is not dim, That used to his favourite hill: The pleasures triat were dear to him, Are dear to life and nature still But ah! his home is not as fair ; Neglected must his garden be ; The lilies droop and wither there, And seem to whisper, " where is he?" His was the pomp, the crowded hall, But where is now this proud display : His riches, honours, pleasures, all Desire could frame : but where are they ? And he, as some tall rock that stands Protected by the circling sea, Surrounded by admiring bands, Seem'd proudly strong, and where is he? The churchyard bears an added stone, The fire-side shows a vacant chair; Here sadness dwells, and weeps alone, And death displays his banner there. The life has cone, the breath has fled, And what has been, no more shall be ' • The well-known form, the welcome tread , 0 where are they, and where is he? CONTEMPORARY PRESS. RUSSIA-THE " PROTECTRESS" OF THE OTTOMAN EMPIRE! (From the Morning Herald.) From the period of the, battle of Navarino, down to the present time, we have laboured in our observations upon eastern affairs to awaken successive administra tions to a right sense of their duty as British states men in upholding Turkey against both the aggressive and the circumventing policy of the court of St. Pe tersburg, but in vain. We blame both whig and tory statesmen for the - unimpeded progress of the march of Russian ambition in the east, which has led to those " complications of the Levant" that Palmerston him self so anxious to bring to a " solution." And how does he set about the task of solving those difficulties ? He, with a degree of infatuated blindness that looks like a deliberate betrayal of his country's interests, actually throws the power and influence of England into the scale with the sword of Russia to dis sipate embarrassments which Russia herself has created ! Yes, Palmerston recognises in Russia, the ancient rival and indefatigable enemy of the Turkis nation, the PROTECTRESS OF THE PoirrE—the beneign GENIUS OF PACIFICATION, which is to REGENERATE Turkey, and restore the dying spirit of the Ottoman empire ! We have compared this new office assumed by Rus sia to the generous and disinterested labours of the prowling wolf protecting the feeble flock ; or to the no less benevolent intentions of the hungry kite in mak ing a descent upon the poultry yard. Russia—the PROTECTRESS OF TIIE OTTOMAN EMPIRE ! It is a discovery that must immortalise the name of Palmerston, who, some years ago, was the passive accomplice of Russia in discharging thel duties of an equally benignant protection to Poland. We object to the crusade in which the English Go vernment has been induced to join against Mehemet Ali, because it is only the developement of a Russian plot, to completely reduce the last remains of Moslem power by crushing the only Mahommedan ruler ca pable of causing very material disturbance to the Rus sian schemes, and re-animating in the Turkish people the ancient spirit of hostility to the Muscovite. Russia made a merit of abandoning the treaty of Unkiar Skelessi, which was about to expire, and has contrived to enchain the energies of England in the cunning -woven meshes of a still more dangerous treaty. England Was not bound by that former treaty between Russia and the Porte, because she was no party to it. But by the treaty which is the fatal ema nation of the Anglo-Russian alliance, the navy of Eng land in the Levant is bound not to enter the Darda nelles, or make any movement for the protection of Constantinople, except in combination with or by consent of Russia, as well as of her two despotic auxiliaries. By upholding the claims of Mehemet Ali against the demands of a confederacy of governments, entirely set in motion, inspired, and directed by Russia, we support, under a new state of circumstances, the old principle of policy by which in regard to eastern affairs we have been always actuated. We resist the en croaching designs and insatiable ambition of Russia, and thereby endeavour to preserve Turkey from dis memberment, and England from the folly and disgrace of being the tool of her worst enemy. PROSPECTS OF CONSERVATISM. (From the - Staffordshire Gazette.) Conservative prospects are brightening ! Daily and hourly are we supplied with fresh indications of the returning good sense of the people, and of their re newed attachment to those old institutions, and old principles, that was wont to dictin g uiak our emmety... men, ere whig misrule began. A few years' experience have sufficed to convince those, who once thought the Whigs honest, of the necessity of withdrawing their confidence from them, and of ranging themselves un der the unsullied banner of conservatism—" The flag that's braved a thousand years the battle and the breeze." The conservative phalanx is thus mightily increasing in strength ; and every fresh appeal to the people—the quondam pets of a ministry that owes its existence to them—is now responded to in such a man ner as to convince the unprincipled whigs, that their day of popularity has passed by, and for ever. And why is this ?—how is it that men who rode into power so triumphantly on the shoulders of the people, and obtained, for a time, an accession of popular enthusi asm unexampled in our history, are now regarded as mere political empires and unprincipled knaves ? Sim ply because they have betrayed and deceived those who relied upon their promises and pledges, and have, by their innate incapacity, rendered whig legislation the bane of their own country, and the laughing-stock of civilised Europe. They promised reform ; they carried their much-vaunted second Magna Charta ; and the result of their infusion of too much democracy into the constitution has endangered its very existence ; they pledged themselves to effect retrenchment, and yet they have created more places in ten years than their prede cessors did in fifty ; and in addition to this enormous abuse of power, we find that in the year 1840, solely from their mismanagement, the necessity has arisen for seriously increasing the burthens of the people ;=• and, instead of promoting peace, they have lavished our blood and treasure to foster the spirit of revolution amongst our most ancient allies,—the thunder-bolt of war seems to be hurled upon us, and even should a kind Providence arrest for a time so fearful a cala mity, the present aspect of affairs, entangled as they are by whig incapacity, portends anything rather than peaceful or palmy days for England. The whigs have done all the mischief, and at length the people know it. Hence it is that we are so often gratified by fresh accessions to our ranks, and that numbers, who are honest enough, and bold enough to avow that they once ranged themselves under the banners of reform, because they thought the whigs honest in their in tentions, have now returned to the good old way, and are as energetic as we have ever been in their de devotion to, and maintenance of the constitutional cause. We cannot attend a conservative meeting, how ever limited in numbers, but individuals of this class are to be found; and in no order of the community is this more evident than amongst the vast body of opera tives; and, when we consider that the middle classes, who are now so seriously suffering for their mis-placed con fidence in whig rectitude, are repudiating all connection with the party that have enhanced their burthens ; and further, that many of the brightest ornaments of our senate—the Stanleys, the Grahams, and the Burdetts, who are a tower of strength to our cause—were them selves once the dupes of whig-radical professions; we may safely arrive at the conclusion, that the reaction now so extensive amongst all classes, must shortly end in an utte r rout i ng o f t h e whigs. Every where, too, conservative meetings are fully attended ; conservative societies are flourishing ; and whig demonstrations are unheard of. We cannot, indeed, after the strictest scrutiny, discover what class of the community are in favour of the present ministry. The operative classes -certainly are not; for throughout the country, and in no district more extensively than in South Stafford shire, they have formed themselves into societies for the especial purpose of compassing their downfal!; and the ministerial organ, the Morning Chronicle, has most pathetically deplored their defection from the whig ranks. The vast agricultural body who are not en slaved by whig landlords; the tradesmen who are not dependent upon whig customers ; the clergy, who have ever despised whig bribes, and shewn themselves honest in the worst of times; the gentry who are not seeking whig commissions for their sons, or snug berths for themselves; and the brave barons of Eng land, the descendants of those worthies who have ob tained from a weak and tyrannical monarch the real Magna Charta, have, almost to a man, declared their determined opposition to a set of men who have alike degraded their country and dishonoured themselves. Therefore, we say conservative prospects are brighten ing; and sure we are, that if only the conservative body continue to exert themselves as they are now do ing, we shall ere long witness the return to power of men who will abolish useless places and sinecures, and effect every necessary and useful reform that the pre sent bungling ineapables have rendered necessary — who will economise our resources, maintain the na tional honour and dignity, uphold our Protestant in stitutions—and who, in a word, will hold the reins of government, not for themselves but their country.— r May the day speedily arrive, say we, to which we are sure every loyal Briton, every real patriot, every sin cere Christian, and every honest man in the empire will most heartily respond. LATEST ABSENCE OF MIND.—We hear that after the wedding celebration between Mr. Gage and the lovely Miss Knightley, at Fink, a gentleman of Lewes rode horns a strange nag instead of his own, and never found out his mistake at all. It is thought he had no time to look at the h orse from being too much tak en u p w ith the br i dal.--New Court Go ' zette. LITERARY NOTICE; Church of England Quarterly Review. No, 16. October, 1840. London : W. E. Painter. On the whole, this will be found an excellent number. There are a few articles in it on which we cannot bestow our unqualified commendation. Among these we would parti cularly mention that on " Defenders of the Faith." We wish the writer had made a few references to Scriptural authority while treating so largely of church matters. There is hardly a quotation from the Bible throughout the article. The article on " Aristophanes and his Birds" displays great research, and will, no doubt, contribute to bring this ingeni ous political comedy into greater notice. We wish the ela borate paper on " The Silurian and Devonian Systems" had not been of so purely secular a character. The essay on " Ecclesiastical Architecture " is extremely well written, and abounds with practical suggestions of the most valuable description. Would that we could persuade all professional architects and church-building committees to peruse this eloquent article. We feel convinced that attention to its advice would tend materially to the elevation of our national taste. The paper on " Naval and Military Chaplains" em bodies much matter of the gravest interest. " The Antiqui ties of the Christian Church" is the title of an essay display ing great historical research. " The Protestant Church in France" is a very interesting paper, as is also the essay on " Psalmody." The latter is written with much candour. The miscellaneous contents of this number are particularly attractive. The British and Foreign Quarterly Review. No. 12. Lon don : R. and J. E. Taylor. Solidity is the leading feature of this periodical. Its seve ral articles are so many distinct and complete treatises on the various subjects of which they treat. The first article in the present number is an elaborate analysis of Mr. Carlyle's work on " Chartism," with which the writer has incorpo rated some observations on " Church Extension." Against some of the opinions put forth under the latter head, we must solemnly protest ; though we firmly believe that the writer is sincerely earnest in his desire for the spread of re ligious instruction among the lower classes. On the subject of church reform we think he is decidedly erroneous. " The Milan Treaty" embodies some curious statistical information on " Austria and her Resources." The " Modern French Novelists" is a very interesting paper, replete with sound criticism. The account of " Montenegro" abounds with original information of great value. The traits of national character which it introduces are novel and instructive. The article on " The Administration of Justice " is very ably written. The author is evidently a complete master of the difficult subject which he has undertaken to elucidate. The papers on " Medical Reform," " Eastern Story-Tellers," and " Hungary and the Hungarians," will be found highly attractive. The Asiatic Journal. October, 1810. London :W. H. Allen and Co., Leadenhall-street. There is much interesting information in the present num ber of the Asiatic, especially respecting the affairs of northern India and China. A brief analysis of this is found, as usual, under the head of the " Review of Eastern News." The " Anticipated Despatch from China" is an exquisitely rich morceaa. We shall publish it at length, in an early publica tion, if we can find space. The " Notes of a Journey through France and Egypt to Bombay" abounds in useful informa tion, conveyed in a pleasant and agreeable style of narrative. The "Memoirs of a Griffin" are light and sparkling, abound ing in genuine touches of wit and humour. The " Campaign in Affghanistan" is a remarkably spirited sketch, evidently from the pen of a true sportsman. The account of the " Bards of Rajpootana" is very curious. We have perused with great interest the " Supplement to thc Arabian Nights." The selected matter in the Asiatic Journal will always be found attractive, especially to those who have any interest in Eastern affairs. The Colonial Magazine. October, 1840. London : Fisher, Son, and Co. Prefixed to this number is a well executed map of the pro posed settlement of Australind, in Western Australia, of which we have also a full descriptive account. The paper on " The Union, Commercial, Social, and Legislative, between England and Ireland," is temperately and ably written, and embodies much curious information. The remarks on " the Entomo-geographical Character of the African Continent" will be found highly interesting to the naturalist. There are some startling details in the article on " Slavery, Domestic, and Prxdial, in British India." We recommend this article to the notice of the Anti-Slavery agitators. "The Effects of Climate upon Man" brings under our notice some curious and important physiological facts. The statistical account of " New South Wales" appears to be compiled with very great care. The " Hints for Emigrants," in the continuation of the article on Van Dieman's Land, will be found eminently useful. " England's Prospects as a Commercial Power" displays very mediocre powers. " War, or No War ? Eng land's Duty" is eminently pointed and pertinent in its ap peals to the common sense of the reader. Grant's London Journal. September, 1840. London : George Berger. One of the principal features iu this new series of Grant's Journal is the " Autographs and Notices of Eminent Men" which are furnished in each weekly number. If these auto graphs are entitled to the name of facsimiles they will form a very valuable collection, which it would be impossible other wise to procure on the same moderate terms. The original and selected matter in this periodical is exceedingly interest ing. Its articles are chiefly of a light and sketchy character. The Churchman. October, 1840. London : W. E. Painter, Strand. We are glad to find that this excellent periodical will shortly be published, under the management of a committee of clergymen, for the benefit of the widows and orphans of the clergy. We have no doubt that this new arrangement will procure for it a greatly extended circulation. There are several articles possessing great merit in the number before us. The remarks on " Uniformity" are particularly season able. There is much truth, forcibly expressed, in the obser vations on " Periodical Publications." The articles on "The Authorised Version of the Bible," and on " Church Extension" are well worth perusing. The letters on " The Pretensions of the Bishops of Rome" ought to be reprinted, in a separate form, for general circulation. The Violated Sabbath, a Poem. Belfast : James Wilson. In this poem there are many passages of a very eloquent character. The spirit breathed throughout every line is pure and generous. The introductory observations on the pre sent state of society, with respect to the keeping of the Sabbath, are deserving of the most serious attention. We cordially recommend this work to the notice of our readers. The Scripture Doctrine of the Atonement. By Thomas Tattershall, D.D. Liverpool: H. Perris. This is a masterly dissertation on the fundamental doc trines of christianity. Of the soundness of the rev. author's views there can be no doubt, while his powers of reasoning are equally unquestionable. With these qualifications we are not surprised to find that he has succeeded, within so narrow a compass, in furnishing so complete a treatise on the sub ject of the atonement. A Speech in behalf of Deans and Chapters. By John Hackett, D.D. London : W. E. Painter. This republication of Bishop Hackett's defence of Cathe dral Establishments, made before the Long Parliament, is ex tremely seasonable. In the abstract, we concur with the sen timents contained in this able apology ; but we do not admit their validity in opposition to the principles of the, Ecclesi astical Duties and Revenues' Bill. We are glad that this measure has been passed, because we feel assured that it will render the Church of England more efficient and better re spected. The Impossibility of Civil or Religious Liberty under Papal Supremacy. London :" Baisler. This excellent tract, which has been published under the superintendence of the Finsbury Operative Protestant Asso ciation, is the substance of a lecture, recently delivered be fore that society, by George Holden, Esq., son-in-law, we believe, to Mr. Turner, Paper Manufacturer of thii town. Mr. Holden has here given a promise of future celebrity as a public speaker, which we feel convinced, will not be dis appointed. His arguments are irresistibly powerful; while his style is clear, concise, and eloquent. Parliameiztary Speeches. Session 1840. Part 6. London : W. E. Painter. This part of Mr. Painter's admirable republications com prises the speeches of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and the Bishops of Winchester, Gloucester, Salisbury, Lincoln, and Rochester, on the Ecclesiastical Revenues' Bill ; the speech of the Duke of Sussex on Prince Albert's Regency Bill ; and the Queen's Speech on the Prorogation of Parliament. The Illustrated Shakspere. Part 17. London : R. Tyas, Paternoster-row. This part contains the conclusion of Cymbeline and the commencement of Taming the Shrew. It is a sufficient en comium on th e part to say that it is fully equal to those which have preceded it. The engravings are remarkably spirited and appropriate. • The Devil on Two Stick:. Part 5. London : Joseph Thomas, Finch-lane. This spirited translation of the admirable work of Le Sage is proceeding admirably. The illustrations by Tony Johan not are exceedingly characteristic. These alone are worth the whole price of the work. Foreign Loans, or Valuable Information to all connected with the Republic of Chili- London : Longman and Co. Liverpool : Willan and Son. Thi s pamphlet is from the pen. of Mr. Sutcliffe, the retired Governor of the Islands of Juan Fernandez. It contains a mass of useful information on the subject of the South American Loans, and especially of the financial resources of Chili, all of which appears to be well authenticated. We re commend this work to the notice of all who have had themis fortune to dabble in foreign securities. Some of its disci°. flares are eztrexaely curious And instructive. LORD MORPETWS ATTENDANCE AT MASS,! (From the Standard.) It is stated in the Dublin journals of all parties and of all religious denominations, that on Sunday last Lord Morpeth, her Majesty's Principal Secretary of State in Ireland, at tended HIGH MASS at one of the Roman Catholic chapels of the Irish metropolis. As the statement is thus universally made, and as no contradiction has been offered to it, there seems to be no ground to question its truth. The fact thus established, in our opinion merits more at tention than has been given to it, and we therefore take leave to present it once more for public notice. - If any Roman Catholic, holding the high and responsible office held by Lord Niorpetli, had attended as ostentatiously as the Irish Secretary appears to have done, the services of his church, we might regret the sanction given to what we believe to be a fatally erroneous creed, but we could have no just reason to complain of the individual. The law has given to Roman Catholics the opportunity of giving the counte nance of rank and station to error—and the law must bear the blame. Lord Morpeth is, however, a professing Protes tant, and, as Protestants, we must regard his conduct in the particular case as a prostitution of the high rank and office which he occupies, to the injury of the Protestant religion. As a Protestant, Lord Morpeth believes, at least he has sworn upon the gospels that he believes, the sacrifice of the Mass to be an act of idolatry offensive to the Almighty. Why, then, has he assisted at that ceremony ? Ile cannot, like Naaman, plead compulsion—he was not bound by any official duty, and he was bound by his obligation as a chris tian Protestant to be at the time in another place, engaged in a very different manner of worship. Either the noble lord was sincere in his participation in the ritual ceremonies of the Mass, or he was not. If he was sincere he is a Roman Catholic_; if he was not, his attendance was an affront to the sincere Roman Catholics present, and a grievous insult to the Being to whom he rendered a mock worship. There is no escape from this painful dilemma, and Lord Morpeth is bound to explain why he voluntarily entangled himself in it. There is no bigotry in a man's being what he professes to be. The most liberal Protestant is free to absent himself from the sacrifice of the Mass, without impeachment of his liberality. Lord Morpeth goes beyond his oracle, Pontius Pilate, for we do not anywhere learn that that person joined in the Temple worship. What must be the effect of conduct like that ascribed to Lord Morpeth ? Must it not be to create among Roman Catholics an impression that Protestants are not sincere in the religion which they profess—that our creed is purely the creed of expediency and politics ? Mr. O'Connell, who may be supposed to understand what serves the interest of his sect, might teach the noble secre tary a lesson in this particular. It will be remembered that at the funeral of the late Mr. Cobbett, Mr. O'Connell at tended the procession as one of the mourners as far as the church-yard gate, and that there he put on his hat and walked away, avowedly from an unwillingness to assist at any form of Protestant worship. Perhaps Mr. O'Connell's scruples upon the occasion were overstrained, for the burial service of our church scarcely touches upon any of those points in which we differ from Roman Catholics, but he doubtless felt that as every man owes the testimony of his conduct and example to the creed which he professes, he would injuriously affect the interests of Romanisrn by even so slight a sanction to the forms of protestant worship. Nobody who believed Mr. O'Connell capable of sincerity blamed his conduct on the occasion in question ; for our selves, we expressly acknowledged its propriety, upon the hypothesis that the man was a sincere Romanist. Every one, however, must see the contrast between the cases of Lord Morpeth's volunteer, uninvited attendance at high mass, and Mr. O'Connell's abrupt desertion of the funeral procession of his friend, rather than countenance by his presence a ritual which at worst could be but indifferent to him. Now, are not protestants entitled to claim for their religion a respect and a care, as sensitive as that which Romanists manifest for Romanism ? Above all, are we not entitled to demand that professing protestants in high stations shall not abuse the stations to which this protestant country raises them to weaken the faith of protestants and to confirm the errors of Romanists? Is not religion itself—using the word in its most comprehensive and impartial sense—is not religion itself deeply wounded, when the ministers of the crown one day ostentatiously assist at a ceremony which they have but a day or two before solemnly sworn upon the gospels to be in their deliberate judgment an act of idolatry, the most grievous against the majesty of Heaven ? We put these questions indifferently to protestants and Roman Catholics : indeed, as regards Roman Catholics, Mr. O'Connell has already answered them by his conduct. But Lord Morpeth has acted, no doubt, with a view to Romanist popularity. This is as stupid as it is opposed to right principles. Nobody ever obtained popularity worth the name from any class by practices which that class would not themselves pursue in like circumstances. True popularity is founded in good opinion, and, therefore, deserters, trimmers, and traitors, never obtain it, though they may obtain a awed of any kind not incompatible with contempt. Even with the Romanists of Ireland, the Duke of Newcastle is at this moment a more popular man, in the only sense in which a man of honour can wish to be popular, than Lord Normanby or Lord Morpeth : the duke is denounced, but feared and admired as a noble and generous opponent, while the mar quis and the viscount are slavered over with compliments, and despised as unprincipled and sordid servants. MEMOIR OF HER ROYAL HIGHNESS THE PRINCESS AUGUSTA. Her Royal Highness was in her 72nd year, having been born on the Sth November, 1768. She was the sixth child and second daughter of George the Third and Queen Char lotte. Among the usual congratulations offered to the Throne, upon occasion of any accession to the Royal progeny, the birth of the Princess Augusta gave the corporation of the city of London an opportunity of approaching his Majesty George 111., which they did with a better grace than on some pre ceding occasions. For some years it had been the p rac ti c e of the corporation to take the opportunity of those public cere monies to mix up with their address of congratulation topics of reprehension, always wanting in proper respect to the So vereign, and occasionally approaching to the very verge of insult. This most reprehensible practice, first recommended for adoption by the profligate incendiary Wilkes, had grown to such a height, that it had almost assumed the character of compliance with established precedent. Fortunately, a bet ter and more dutiful spirit animated the corporation on the occasion under-consideration. They took the prudent course of returning to the more becoming usage of their predeces sors, and of steering clear of political animadversions, and confining themselves to the gratulations on the happy event, mingled with becoming loyalty—a circumstance which afforded the King great satisfaction, as was marked by the manner in which he received and answered their addresses at the levee. The sweet temper and amiable disposition of her Royal Highness, both in childhood and after life, made her at all times a favourite with the branches of the Royal Family ; her youth was distinguished by an exemplary attention to the instructions she received from the persons to whom her edu cation was confided, and the result proved the advantages she had derived from them. Of all the members of an accom plished family, there was none more conspicuous than the Princess Augusta. In the fine arts her taste was unimpeach able, and her proficiency remarkable. Had her destiny been fixed in another sphere of life, it is probable her Royal High ness would have attained eminence in any branch of accom plishment to which she might have thought proper to devote her high natural endowments. A little anecdote, which we have every reason to believe perfectly authentic, as it was communicated by one of the actors in the scene, marks at once the attachment of the Princess to the arts, and the unpretending affability which uniformly tempered her intercourse with all orders of soci ety :—A few years back her Royal Highness paid a visit to the ruins of Pevensey Castle. She entered into a familiar conversation with the aged female whose province it is to point out the more remarkable features of the scene to occa sional visitors. After some interval, the Princess took a seat on a camp stool, and continued for a considerable time to sketch the surrounding objects. When she had completed her task, she asked the aged cicerone to procure some boiling water, and partook of tea with her attendants. During the whole time, the Princess occasionally directed her conversa tion to the female already mentioned, and that with such a perfect absence of everything approaching to supercilious pretension, that the woman remained in entire ignorance of the quality of her guests, until the parting liberality of the Princess, upon a scale to which the receiver of her bounty was but little accustomed, induced her to make inquiries which led to recognition of.the rank of her illustrious guest. Dedicated to the gentler affections and unpretending duties of domestic life, her royal highness took little, if any, part in politics. The only public occasion on which she was ever prominently put forward was one not of her own selection, but resulting from a train of unhappy circumstances with which the princess individually had no concern, although they exercised an extraordinary influence upon the fate and fortunes of other more conspicuous members of the august family to which she belonged. During the unhappy differ ences which existed between George IV and Queen Caroline, when the princess royal was married to the King of Wirtem burg, the Princess Augusta was called upon to preside with his majesty at the levees and drawing-rooms. As soon as the political considerations which had made it necessary for the Princess Augusta occasionally to leave the bosom of domestic retirement had ceased to operate, she re turned with undiminished attachment to that course of life which was at all times the object of her choice. A strict ob servance of the forms of the protestant church, a conscienti ous conviction of its purity, a devout obedience to its pre cepts, and as far as human infirmity permitted, an unbroken conformity of practice, marked the progress and termination of an exemplary existence. The princess, within a few weeks of her death, presented to each of her domestics, who were much attached to her royal highness, with a copy of her portrait, as the last ac knowledgment which she should make of their attentions. Her royal highness, also a few days before her death, sent tokens of remembrance to all the branches of the royal family. It is generally understood that her royal highness made a will previous to her illness assuming its menacing appear ance. The bulk of her property the princess has left to the children of the King of Hanover and the Duke of Cambridge, and the remainder has been divided as legacies among her attendants and domestics, not one of whom it is said has been omitted. NEW ROYAL EXCHANGE, LONDON.—The Gresham Com mittee met at Mercers' Hall, on Wednesday last, when the plans for the new Royal Exchange, signed by the lords of the treasury, with their official approval of Mr. Tite's de sign, were laid before them. Mr. Tite was then appointed architect ; and it was determined to divide the building under two contracts,—the first for the foundations, which will be commenced immediately, and the second for the superstruc ture. The edifice is expected to be completed within three years, and the area for the meeting of the merchants will, in all probability, be ready for their accommodation in the spring of 1843. DEATII OF ADMIRAL SIR ROSS DONNELLY, K.C.B.— This gallant officer died on Wednesday last, at his residence in Harley-street, in the 77th year of his age, after an illness of a few weeks. It will be in the recollection of our readers that a commission of lunacy was issued, at the instance of his family, in June last, the gallant admiral having been for some time previously incapable of managing his affairs. The deceased admiral's commission was dated as follows : Lieutenant, 27th September, 1781 ; commander, Gth July, 1794 ; captain, 24th June, 1795 ; rear-admiral, 4th June, 1814 ; vice -admiral, 27th May, 1825 ; and admiral, 28th June, 1838. For his distinguished services he was nominated a Knight Commander of the Bath in February, 1837. When senior lieutenant he was in Howe's action, and succeeded to the command on the death of the captain of the Montagu in that victory. He commanded the Narcissus at the reduction of the Cape and the capture of Buenos Ayres ; and also the seamen and marines at the landing at Monte Video. SUICIDE THROUGH DISTRESS.—About four o'clock on Thursday morning an Irishman, named John Greaves, who resided in a cellar in Small-street, Stockport, rose from his bed, smoked his pipe, and went out to the privy, where he was found, about an hour afterwards, suspended by a rope to a beam. He was quite dead when found. It is said to be distress which reduced him to commit the rash act. He had to borrow money on the previous evening to purchase a meal for the family, which consisted of himself, a wife, and three daughters, the youngest about 15 years of age ; and probably rose, not knowing how to meet with another meal. Th e cel lar in which he resided presented a horrid picture of distress. The whole of the furniture consisted of two chairs, one stool, a small table, a tub, and one small bed, not fit for a human being to repose on, and this for five individuals to sleep upon. He left Ireland about three months ago, since which time he has been o en travelling about anywork utthe coun th tr e y y with his meet with, har vs about eight or nine days ago, when tney settled in Stockport.

(From the " London and Paris Ladies' Magazine of Fashion.") It appears to he decided that bonnets will continue to be worn small this winter; and as great novelties are preparing in ribbons, we augur their return to favour. One of the newest autumnal bonnets is of paille colour gros des Indis, edged with pink velvet, and ornamented with three feathers shaded paille and pink. The Parisian ladies have introduced a new style of coiffure for riding in preference to the hat ; it is a demi capote of straw, and usually trimmed with velvet. Beautiful wreaths of velvet flowers are made for straw bon nets ; one of the prettiest is composed of wheat-ears of black velvet, with brides and bavolet of the same. The newest autumnal dresses are made with plain bodies open en cur in front, and trimmed round the neck with black velvet ; three rows of flat buttons of the same materi als as the dress are placed on the front of the body 6vas6s to wards the top ; the revival of the original gigotin ;sleeve as worn in 1820 is talked of in Paris, as also short waists. Flounces continue to ornament robes for full dress ; either a single one deep, or several narrower ruches are also much in favour ; they are used to trim the edge of open skirts, fichus, or bonnets. _ _ _ Fichus cannezous of white gros de Naples are worn with deep folds trimmed with mechlin or point lace ; lace con tinues to be very generally used on every article of dress, from the cannezous to the pocket handkerchief, on some of which the crest is embroidered in gold. The shawls bournous will now be in request ; they are made of cachemire of pale colour and lined with soft shades, trimmed round with bands of velvet, with hood, cordeli4e, &c., wadded'and quilted with care. The mantel mauresque has also appeared of white cachemire lined with paille, cut en biais ; a few of the folds are attached to the waist by a cor deli4e, the remainder fall in flutes, forming sleeves, which are raised a volonte by cords. Small caps of emboidered muslin are very generally worn in Paris, and the trimmings and ornaments of lace and rib bon present much variety. Coral also is fashionable ; not only the cameo brooch, but long necklaces and bracelets are made of it. Lusus NATUR2E.—Mr. John Scott, of Penrith, shoe maker, a few days ago, caught in one of the neighbouring fields a fine goldfinch, which has four legs and eight claws. Two of the legs come out near the breast, and it makes use of all the legs and claws when hopping on the twig. ABERYSTWITH.=ELOPEMENT.-•^ln love, as well as in war, dispatch is an essential element of success. The great Duke has laid it down somewhere that you are to get victo ries when you can ; so thought Evans—Morgan Evans— when, in the witching hour of midnight, he saddled his good steed in the Belle Vue Stables, determined to strike " a bold stroke for a wife." This said steed was of the right sort ; and whether licensed to carry more than one outside we cannot vouch; yet it would seem that he was fully capable of carrying Evans himself and a friend behind at a pinch. We little thought when, after our first sleep, we heard the vigorous tramping of this horse, that upon its fleetness and pith depended the fate of the blacksmith's pretty daughter. But so it was. The latter was, we understand, to be married the next day to a most respectable shopkeeper, not a hun dred miles from Machynlleth. For these nuptials all were prepared but the maid, and she was bent upon having Evans, and Evans was bent upon having her. The latter arriving at her cottage door in the dead of night, with a brawny arm and willing heart, he lost no time i n p l ac i ng h er , " no thi ng loth," behind him on his berry brown, and away they scudded with the speed of thought. Leonora's spectre bridegroom, in the German ballad, could not have sped with more speed than " tramp, tramp, plash, plash," Evans darted away with the blacksmith's lovely daughter. Talybont was gained and passed, and so were Rhyd-y-Ppme, Penygarn, and Commons Coch, and the gallant steed neither stumbled nor stopped until he had carried the betrothed pair to Llanbadarn Fawr, about a mile from Aberystwith. Day had not yet dawned, but Evans, like a good general, had provided for all contingencies, and a trusty friend had his house open and ready to receive him and his destined bride. Having rested awhile from his fatigue, he lost no time in going to Aberystwith, for the purpose of procuring a bridesmaid, and the other decorous appendages to a respectable wedding. But here truth compels us to stop. Evans, as far as we can gather, is no fatalist ; judging from his conduct, the only unerring test of one's opinion, he seems to be a fellow that will trust nothing to chance ; there fore, what must he do before going to Aberystwith, but lock the demoiselle within the precincts of four strong walls, and put the key in his pocket. How far this is an imputation upon the fidelity of the sex in general, and the blacksmiths' daughter in particular, we leave " casu i sts to d ec ide." How ever, she was not long in durance. Evans returned with all the necessary " means and applia nces ," an d the pair were made happy before ten in the morning, by being married in Llanbadarn church. The bride is decidedly handsome. and her beauty is by no means diminished in the eyes of Evans by having £3OO as a fortune. For the credit of our fair countrywoman, we have been inform e d that Evans is a young man of good character.—Carmarthen Journal. VESSELS ENTERED FOR LOADING. (SINCE OUR LAST PUBLICATION.)

The supplies of British Grain to our corn market, since this day day se'nnight have been small, comprised nearly in 2940 qrs. of Oata and 3378 loads of Oatmeal, (of this year's produce,) from Ireland. From abroad there have arrived 5,807 qrs. of Wheat, 14,275 brls. of Flour from the United States, and 10,940 brls. from Canada. There have been released from bond, during the same period, 9,709 qrs. Wheat, 701 qrs. Oats, and 10,605 brls. of Flour : the Canadian Flour, being admissable still at the low rate of 3}d per barrel, may be considered on the free market from its arrival. The duty on foreign Wheat is now 18s 6d per qr., on Flour Ils 3d per brl. Throught the week we have not experienced any thing like activity in the Wheat trade, and prices generally have suffered a further decline foreign and old were, yesterday, offering at fully 2d per bushel below the quotations of this day week ; and the little Irish new at market was sold at 3d per bushel under the rates - then obtained. American and Canadian Flour must be noted (id per barrel cheaper : the former has been saleable at 34s lid to 355, the latter at 33s 6d to 34s per barrel. On the small supplies of new Oats and Oatmeal prices of both articles have been sustained : food mealing qualities of Oats have brought Is 3d to is 4d per 451bs, and Oatmeal 285 to 29s per 240 lbs. Barley, Beans, and Peas as last quoted : no new Barley at market. GRAND JUNCTION RAILWAY.

The new Virginia leaf is generally good, and an unusually large portion of fine quality; the stemmed is long and leafy, but wanting substance, and as yet there is little or none fine. The price of Brimstone has declined this week, in consequence of the Sulphur Company having reduced their selling prices 20s per ton; the principal business done was at the sale of 310 tons of damaged, which went at £9 125 6d to .elO 17s 6d per ton.

Rape and Linseed Oils are in limited demand, but without alteration in prices Oil of Turpentine continues depressed ; a few sales have been made at 525 to 52s 6d, which is a further reduction ; for forward delivery, however, inquiries continue, and no sellers can be found at present rates.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, 0cr..2. There has been a steady demand for cotton throtighout the week, both from the Trade and Speculators, and the prices of last week are fully supported for all descriptions, particularly for the common qualities of American and Surat. The unfavourable accounts received from America of the crop of Sea Island, have produced more firmness in the holders of this description, which may now be considered quite as high as previously to the public sale of the 18th ultimo. 8000 American and 300 Surat have been taken on speculation, and 100 American for export. There have been for warded into the country unsold during September, 620 American and 50 Surat. ACCOUNT OF SALES AND IMPORTS OF COTTON, From the 25th ultimo, to this day, inclusive.
