VortiT. THANKSGIVING HYMN. BY WILLIAM HOWORTH , AUTHOR OF "THE REDEEMER," &C. God of our Father, the Strength of our nation, Our Maker, Redeemer, Preserver and Lord, With grateful thanksgiving, with glad exultation, We bless Thy great Name for the manifestation Of mercy, vouchsafed in the mighty salvation► Which Thou to our Sovereign bast deign'd to afford. From her proud palace halls and their bright scenes of splendour, Light hearted, unconscious of peril she came, With the Prince whom she loves with affection most tender By her side, with the heart and the arm to defend her ; With fair noble dames in her train to attend her, Where thousands received her with loyal acclaim. And well might the noblest of homage be paid her, And well might her presence high plaudits excite ; For 'twas not the crown wherewith Thou halt arrayed her, Which first 'mongst the sovereigns of earth bath displayed her, But the all Thou by virtue, youth, beauty hast made her, Constrained hearts and voices as one to unite. Who then could have deemed in the light that was filling The skies with its glory, the earth with its smile; 'Mid the joy that so many glad bosoms was thrilling, One breast could be found where dark treason distilling Its poison, each lingering virtue was chilling, And fost'ring each passion malignant and vile ? Yet oft when our path seems all safety and pleasure, It leads to the brink of the precipice dread ; Joy's song often changes to sorrow's wild measure ; The gay buoyant heart feels affliction's bard pressure, Its hopes, fondly cherished and prized as a treasure, When deemed most abiding are blighted—are fled! It was thus, in a moment when most unexpected, The hand of the ruffian-assassin was raised ; When England's loved Hope was the victim selected, But the missile of death passed her by—misdirected! Again passed her by !—"fwas Thy arm, Lord, protected ! Thy Name for this mercy for ever be praised. The wicked, 0 Lord, in their craft are confounded, Their subtlest devices before Thee are vain ; But firm as the hills is their confidence founded Whose trust is in Thee, though with perils surrounded, For, e'en as their need is, Thy mercy unbounded Flows forth still unfailing to bless and sustain. Though Thou through the waste howling desert mayst send them, Where the Red Sea's wild waves heave and roll in their path ; While Egypt's fierce hosts are pursuing to rend them. Still let them take courage, Thy arm shall defend them ; A mighty deliv'rance shall surely attend them, Alike from the waves and their enemies' Wrath. Throughout the wide range of her empire extended, On whose measureless limits the sun ne'er goes down, Let the knees of each heart in thanksgiving be bended, All voices as one in the anthem be blended Of praise to our God, who hath safely defended Our Queen in her peril, and treason o'erthrown. And oh! may impressions deep, firm and abiding, Of this mighty mercy sink deep in her breast, And cause her to seek with faith's stedfast confiding, Our God's safe protection, His hand's gracious guiding, That while o'er the greatest of empires presiding, For Him she may rule, and in Him may be blest. And long on her brow may the crown greatly flourish, While shame and confusion o'erwhehn all her foes ; Be it her's pure Religion to guard and to cherish, And her's, as a parent, her people to nourish, To cause from among them repining to perish, And gladness and peace in their homes to repose. LITERARY NOTICES. The Dublin University Magazine. July, 1840. Dublin W. Curry, jun., and Co. This number opens with the first part of a stirring narra tive of the great events in which George Robert Fitzgerald was involved. The memoir is written in a very spirited style, and displays great fidelity, accuracy, and impartiality. " The Sportsman in Ireland" will afford a rich fund of amusement to those who delight in " moving accidents by field and flood." It abounds with characteristic anecdotes. The analysis of " Romilly's Autobiography" is likewise a very interesting article, containing some admirable extracts. The continuation of " Charles O'Malley, the Irish Dragoon't is fully as laughable and facetious as the preceding chapters Harry Lorrequer's reputation is now placed upon an im perishable basis. " The Sorcerer" is a capital tale after the German school. " Our Portrait Gallery" for this month contains an excellent likeness of the Archbishop of Arm gh, the Primate of all Ireland, accompanied by a well written bi ographical sketch. The " Recollectionsnf a Portrait Painter" embrace another excellent tale. " The City of Dublin at the Bar of the House of Lords" is a political article at once forci ble and convincing. Charles O'Malley, the Irish Dragoon. By " Harry Lor requer." Illustrated by " Phiz." No. 4. Dublin : W. Carry, jun., and Co. Both " Harry Lorrequer" and his clever associate " Phiz," have fairly outdone themselves in the present num ber of this inimitable work. It displays throughout descrip tive powers of the highest order, and an intimate knowledge of Irish character and manners. The style is free and dash ing, without a trace of affectation. The scenes, especially that in which Miss Judy Macau figures, and " The Last Night in Trinity" are exquisitely humorous. The air of simplicity which is thrown over the whole work considerably enhances its charms. If " Charles O'Malley" does not speedily become one of the most popular works of modern times, we can only say that the reading public are greatly deficient in taste and discrimination. Master Humphrey's Clock. By " Boz." Part 3. Lon don : Chapman and Hall; Liverpool: Wareing Webb. This part contains the numbers from 9 to 13 of this popular work. Its interest increases as the author's plan is more fully developed. We also have to notice a decided im provent in the illustrations of the present part. " Mr. Weller's Watch" has more than realised our anticipations. The old gentleman constitutes an admirable chairman, and Sam's anecdotes, especially those relating to the barbers, are highly amusing. The story of the wax dummies is peculiarly rich and humorous. " The Old Curiosity Shop" is a capital episode. It is impossible to read it without feeling an irresistible desire to castigate the monster Quilp. Swiveller promises to be a character of some note in these sketches. Mr. Weller's grandson contributes also, in no small degree, to the amusement of the reader. He is a perfect " chip of the old block." We shall look with much eagerness for the succeeding parts of this attractive publication. Men and Manners; or, the Political Panorama. A Satire. Part 3. London : Joseph Thomas, 1, Finch-lane, Corn hill, 1840. We noticed with approbation the former parts of this series of bold and vigorous satires. The author displays considerable talent, and great facility of composition. The versification is smooth and flowing—the language choice and appropriate--the style forcible—the ideas original—and the satire keen and cutting. These satires have done much good by showing up the profligacy by which many of the court fa vourites have been distinguished. The part before us opens with a spirited appeal to the Queen, and then proceeds to ap ply the tomahawk to the brainless scull-caps of the disgrace ful crew in office. The hits at the Duke of Sussex and the Duchess of Inverness are capital, and cannot fail to inflict a pang in the bosom of his Royal Highness, should he conde scend to read it.

THE RADICAL PRESS AND THE ATTACK UPON THE QUEEN'S LIFE. (From the Cork Conetitution.l There is nothing like a fact for extinguishing a quib bler. The Reporter appropriates no less than half of one of its very valuable columns to a reprehension of our remarks respecting the Liverpool Meeting. gross tairepre sen " We remember no instance of more tation of the facts of a case th an that wh ich appears in the Constitution of this morning, in reference to a meeting in Liverpool, to address the Queen on her late Providential escape." We cannot answer for the defects of the gentleman's memory, but either they are very various, or he is less intimate with the contents of his paper than might be reasonably expected. He will " not enter into a de tailed refutation" (detailed refutation !) of our " false hoods," and this, we admit, is both considerate and kind. On " the refutation," however, which he does enter into let us bestow a few remarks. " The Constitution, however, assures its readers that the blerical firebrand achieved a signal triumph over those who opposed him, and that the disapprobation was confined to one or two individuals." There are but two mistakes in this sentence. First : the Constitution did not " assure its readers that the cleri cal firebrand obtained a signal triumph," or any tri umph, " over those opposed to him." It stated, in deed, that the attempt at disturbance failed—that " the meeting would not listen to it," and that " the clamour of the malcontents was drowned in the acclamations of the loyal and right-hearted." It stated this, but not a word said about the " signal triumph" of Mr. W- Neile. Secondly : it did not say that the " disappro bation was confined to one or two individuals," or to any number of individuals. It was scarcely worth the Reporter's while, then, to quote an extract from an English paper to enable its readers to judge of " the truth or falsehood" of an " assertion" which we never made. " In fact, hardly a word of his (Mr. M`Neile's) address could be heard." We do not wish to give to allegations of this kind the only answer which they deserve. We shall, therefore, quote part of the speech of one of the leaders of the disturbance, and from that let the public "judge :" " Mr. H. T. Atkinson congratulated the meeting upon having had the rare advantage of hearing the unequalled talents of the rev. gentleman who moved the address. He felt sure that in coming forward after that gentleman, though not with the same force or the same elaborate precision, he should have credit when he said that there was not a man in that assembly who felt more deeply than he did the lament able consequences which would have fallen upon the com monwealth of England if this most atrocious and treason able attack had been successful. And he reiterated the eloquent aspirations of the rev. gentleman when he said, in the spirit of humble thanksgiving, ' Thanks be to God, for the interests of England she is safe.' " Now, if " hardly a word" of Mr. M‘Neile's speech could be heard, how is it that one of the most perse vering of the clamourers—one of the most earnest of his adversaries—congratulates the meeting o n "having had the rare advantage of hearing," &c. ?—h ow i s i t that he commends the "force and elaborate precision" of Mr. M`Neile (the latter a property not to be judged of without hearing), and that he reiterates " the elo quent aspirations of the reverend getWemee—how is it that he does this if " hardly a word" of those elo quent aspirations had been heard? " As to the threat that the Orangemen will, in future, " have nothing to do' with the people, it is one which the latter have certainly no reason to fear." Certainly. At all events, they may wait until it is made. Intimidation it is not our habit to attempt. Counsel we sometimes venture to submit, but threats we have neither authority nor inclination to hold out. What we said we adhere to. It is for others to adopt it or refuse; but conservatives will probably find them selves not much the worse for decking co-operation with men by whom they are deceived. Our " argument," as he by cruel constraint is com pelled to call it, respecting "no faith with heretics," he " declines to dispute," and, if an argument it was, he is right, quite right. Now, as heretofore, " the better part of valour is—discretion." " The notion of an Orangeman interfering in anything partaking of a national character—in anything intended for the honour and interest of the country—is about as rational as that a highwayman should publish his opinion on the kind of punishment to be awarded to robberies from the person." Perhaps so; and yet Orangemen have interfered, and with some eject too. The suppression of the rebellion of 'gs had something of a " national character," and had not the Orangemen interfered, what would be the condition of the country now ? True, the interference was sadly to the mortification of the priests. "No faith with heretics" was in every heart—" no quarter for heretics" on every lip. These things were no theories then. Blood was flowing like water—Protestants were butchered without mercy. Rome was in her hey-day ; the pike and the faggot did their duty well. Her priests caught the bullet on its way, and by their faith ful followers the helpless woman and the unconscious child were flung back into the flames. Visions of glory were bursting on the view. Heresy quenched in its own blood, or consumed in the fires which Rome had kindled—opposition extinguished—the flag of the faith waving from tree and tower—the people prostrate, the priests upon their necks—such was the prospect when the Orangemen " interfered." It is no wonder that the adherents of the Papacy dislikes them. They spoiled the sport they were intent on, and, in conjunc tion with the military, preserved Ireland to the crown. But for that interference, another hand than Victoria's might sway the sceptre here. lf, however, " the notion of an Orangeman inter fering in anything .partaking of a national character" is so exceedingly ridiculous, seems it not strange that Mr. O'Connell should have so assiduously sought their aid a few years ago? Stranger still that he should have proclaimed that with that aid Ireland would be invin cible, and the union could not last a year! But this is nonsense not worth the trouble of exposure. POLITICAL CHARACTERS. VISCOUNT PALMERSTON. Oh ! come (if haply 'tis thy week for looking pale) with paly cheek ; though more we love thy roseate days, when the rich rouge pot pours its blaze " Full o'er thy face, and, amply spread, Tips e'en thy whisker tops with red, Like the last tints of dying day, That o'er some darkling grove delay !" All hail to thee, incomparable Macassar ! Hail matchless rouge ! Hail, all hail, ye cosmetics of every description ! Shed, we pray you, your sweetening and fragrant influence o'er us, so that we may write of the very greatest of your patrons in a manner befitting his most extraordinary merits. And thou, too, oh Cupid ! so assist us that we may speak of thy representative here on earth in a way worthy both of him and thee. What intellect does Lord Palmerston possess, and to what great and mighty objects does he devote it ! Not the affairs of nations, not the destinies of empires, not the political con vulsions which shake monarchies to their centres, not the overthrow of one kingdom and the aggrandisement of another, not the dethronement of one sovereign and the establishment of his successor, not the downfall of one statesman and the rise of another ;—pshaw ! these, all these, " are trifles light as air ;" these are matters unworthy of the slightest consi deration when put in comparison with those to which Lord Palmerston devotes all the powers of his lofty mind. The cut of a coat, the pattern of a waistcoat, the shape of a pair of pantaloons, the peculiar twist of a curl, the precise shade of rouge, the proper colour of hair dye, the arrangement of a whisker, the hue of an eyebrow—these, and ten thousand others equally important, are the affairs which engross almost exclusively his lordship's attention. There are, we know, some plain, plodding, matter-of-fact people, who think that subjects of such a haracter are below the attention of any man, and totally out of the sphere of the duties of a statesman. Little, alas ! do they know of the matter, when they think that the person filling such an important office as that of Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs should pay more attention to a protocol than to the last number of the Gazette of Fashion, or that he should ponder more deeply over a despatch from a foreign ambassador than over the last book of patterns of his tailor, or that he should consider a treaty relating to the boundaries of kingdoms and the disposal of colonies of greater consequence than a discussion with his valet respecting the number and size of the curls he will wear on either side of his cranium. Good easy souls, they think, forsooth, that because in the good old times " when George the Third was King," the Secretary for Foreign Affairs was engaged in the duties of his office from morning till night, and his mind was harassed and jaded with the weight and burden of many cares, the person at present directing the foreign policy of this great and mighty nation ought likewise to devote some little attention to the business of his department and manifest some anxiety respecting it. Oh ! how much people enter taining such old-fashioned notions are to be pitied. They make no allowance for the " march of mind ;" they take not into consideration " the advancing intelligence of the age ;" above all, they forget the wide difference between a whig of the present time and a tory of forty, or thirty, or twenty years ago. Let them be assured, henceforth and for ever, that it is perfectly compatible with the duties of a whig radical statesman—observe, we say a whiy-radical statesman —to exhibit 'himself as a block on which may be hung the well-fashioned garments of his tailor ; and provided his hair be all of a squash with grease, it is of little or no consequence whether his head be furnished with brains. If, in short, they want to know the qualifications of a whig statesman in these days, let them look at Lord Palmerston, who is, without excepting even the Marquis of Normanby, the finest specimen of the fraternity. He is a tall, handsome-looking fellow, with the " breast of Apollo, and the waist of a giant ; ' he has small white hands, and gentlemanly-looking feet ; his cheeks are daubed with paint ; his whiskers are nicely combed ; his eye-brows are stained with some kind of dye; every hair on his head is frizzled and twisted with the most becoming of curls, and perfumed so strongly, that the first sniff of it takes away one's breath. His coat fits to a nicety ; his waistcoat is of the most gorgeous pattern, and his satin stock has not its fellow. Some idea may perhaps be formed of his appearance, when it is stated that it takes him from about ten o'clock in the morning till five in the afternoon to dress himself up for the remainder of the day ; nor is it from per sonal appearance alene that Lord Palmerston derives the greater portion of his celebrity as a statesman. He can make a bow as gracefully as the best dancing master in christendom ; he can play a tune on the piano, of sing a song as well as any man of his years, and his years are not few ; he is well versed in all the little accomplishments of the drawing room, and is without exception the first and greatest judge of rouge and scents and pastes of every description ; he can dance a qua drille with all the smiling gaiety of a youth of sixteen, and he can go through the Cachuca without making one false step. " He knows the time, the man of lore ! It takes to chalk the ball room floor ; He knows the time, too, well-a-day ! It takes to dance that chalk away." Although we have said so much of Lord Palmerston's statesmanlike qualifications as exemplified in the graceful ness of his figure, and the elegance of his attire, we cannot help fearing that there will be some of our readers who will consider that he is not exactly the fittest wan that could be found to watch over the foreign relations of such an empire as ours. Notwithstanding our professed admiration for the man when he is fully and completely rigged in all his finery, we must confess that it would perhaps be a little more busi ness-like if he could contrive to reach the Foreign Office before five o'clock in the afternoon, and if be would punc tually attend to the appointments he makes with the Ambas dors of Foreign Courts, instead of keeping them as he gene rally does, dancing attendance upon him for two or three hours at a time. Thinking, as we have already intimated, that one of the first and greatest qualifications for a whig radical statesman of the year of grace 1840, is dandyism and puppyism, and knowing that Lord Palmerston possesses both these in the most eminent degree, we consider it un necessary on the present occasion to enter into a minute de fence of his foreign policy, which has lately been rather se verely attacked. We therefore content ourselves by stating that from the woful condition of our foreign relations, with war staring us in the face in every corner of the globe, with our country, instead of being the dread and terror of sur rounding nations, the object of scorn and contempt and de fiance by the bitterist of states, the most insignificant of kingdoms, it is clear that Lord Palmerston is the most weak and wavering and incompetent of statesmen, unpossessed of the slightest talent or ability, with no discrimination, no firmness, no fixed principles of conduct, bluste u r e in s g igoi t ni o isre t rr h es e .. weak, ove r bearing to the helpless, cringing to the st r o ng , favouring to th e egna l , contemptible to all. Good heavens ! Mr. Composit or , w h at can you mean by putting together such an ugly sent ence as that? But never mind, you must letTitlestaHondn,sfe of or. Commons there is no time ,t alter it. is not very f r e quen tly f avoure d by the presence of the sweet l y -scented Viscount. The heated atmosphere which he wou ld t h ere have to breathe, would make his curls lose thei r cr i spness, and become limp and flabby ; and moreover the fumes of t o b acco, an d on i ons and porter from the Irish members, would prove particularly dis agreeable to so " dainty a gentleman. Beside s a ll thi s , h e has another reason for absenting himself from th e h ouse . Certain members arc apt to put very awkward g lating to matters in h is de p artment, and he always thinks it better to be out of ear sho t of such impertinent i t ri When therefore any particularly pertinacious member is desirous of having the noble foreign secretary before him, he is under the necessity of giving formal notice that he will on a certain day put such and such questions relating to such a matter. Palmerston is then obliged to be in attendance, or he would lay himself open to the decided uch censure a speaker.nstireofParluia; ment. The noble Viscount is not m can deliver a string of sentences glibly enough, .certainly but they are e a r i e s for the most part mere ands, ands , n very little intellect in them. He has the tact never to con asenttot on his foreign heproductionof policy. Whenpaers,inw any such ihiclimigitl: papers efoun ded n attack are asked for, he gets up, chatters some time about inconve nience to the public service by producing the papteres,h"ouas.nd house. He on that account to decline laying them before h He then sits down and congratulates himself on his wonder ful ingenuity, or, as some people consider it, extraordinary assurance. Viscount Palmerston has been several years in office. He commenced life as a tory, and filled several subordinate offices under several tory administrations. He continued to stick to pla c e w ith wonderful tenacity until " The duke" found out that he was a fellow of no tact or likelihood, and thereupon sent him adrift. Since then he has joined the whigs ; but if the tones were to come in to-morrow he would support them, provided they would accept of his services. In conclusion we beg to lay before our readers a few lines descriptive of the subject of our sketch, which have been ex tracted, with a few trifling alterations, from the works of veracious little gentleman, Thomas Moore, Esq., of Lans downe House : " And now gentle readers, come listen to me For only one short moment, as soon you shall see, W h il e I sing of Palmerston (a fig for his railers) The shop-board's delight ! the Mecwnas of tailors ! " Derry down, down, down, Derry down. " Some statesmen take round-about ways into note, But his short cut to frame is—the cut of his coat ! Philip's son thought the world was too small for his soul, While Palmerston finds room in a lac'd button-hole. " Derry down, down, down, Derry down. " Look through Europe's statesmen, I say by the deuce. Not one of them all is such a friend to the goose ; So may the " young whig" keep in place, pay, and renown, And be ever the be,t-fitted man about town. " Derry down, down, down, Derry down. VEGETABLE PRODUCE OF BRITISH GUIANA. Mr. Schomburgk, in his "Description of British Guiana," has a chapter under the following head :—" Vegetable pro ductions, which might be raised with advantage by emigrants who are not in possession of large capital. " Sugar ' coffee, and cotton are the commodities which have been hitherto almost the only objects of cultivation in Guiana ; but it must not thence be inferred, that other arti cles are properly excluded. The fertility of the soil promises a safe return for the investment of capital in the cultivation of other crops, which would open new resources to the colony. If the stream of emigration, which has been directed to other and more distant colonies, should flow towards British Guiana, and the great disparity between the land to be cul tivated and the want of labourers to cultivate, it be removed, would not the enterprising farmer, who knew that his capital was not sufficient to embark in the expensive cultivation of the sugar-cane, select some other product, from which he might expect to receive an adequate return for the labour re quired and the capital employed ? The altered circumstances of the labouring population will produce a new era in colo nial history ; and while formerly the cultivation of sugar en grossed the mind of the speculator, on which he hazarded frequently not only his own means, but likewise the property of others, the altered state of things will produce a vast change in agriculture ; a new class of cultivators will arise, who perhaps may be compared to the farmers of the mother country. The vast establishments now existing will be bro ken up into separate concerns of more manageable dimen sions • the different occupations of agriculturist, miller, and distiller, will no longer be combined ; but, as in the mother country, each individual will follow that branch of industry, to which the nature of his property (if he possess any) or of his abilities (if he does not) may direct him. The lands are adapted for numerous other branches of agriculture, and among them the less wealthy cultivator will make his choice. Now excitement to commercial enterprise will thus be raised, and additional prosperity may naturally be expected to follow. I have already pointed out, that, among the vegetable pro ductions of Guiana, a great many are objects of desire in Europe : their number might be considerably increased ; and I venture to propose such as I know might be successfully culti vated, from my researches in the interior of British Guiana. The cultivation of rice would thus cover thousands of acres which are at present a perfect wilderness ; and food for the lower classes would be provided, which at present is mostly imported from a foreign country, which, perhaps, at an ear lier or later date, may be at issue with Great Britain ; be sides that the rice procured from the United States is raised by slave labour. " Of the cereal grains, the Indian corn deserves more at tention than it has hitherto received. The maize is indige nous • and that the coast does by no means afford the best soil for its cultivation, is proved by the superiority of the maize raised by the Indians in the interior. It is cultivated as the principal crop in Egypt, and to a large extent in the 'United States, chiefly in the southern slave states, whence it is imported into British Guiana. . " Indian millet, which, under the name of Guinea corn, is so extensively cultivated in the West Indies, might be raised to a large extent. I think it constitutes in the Bahamas the principal article for the nourishment of the labouring classes. But of the greatest import will prove the introduction of the Victoria wheat into our West Indian and South American colonies, and there is every probability that its cultivation will be attended with success. It is said to grow equally well in arid plains as in humid mountains, and it promises three crops annually. This grain is likely to afford, therefore, new resources of those fertile regions, and will tend to make the colony less dependent upon foreign imports. The sudden and often enormous rise of that necessary article flour, in British Guiana, when the import is not adequate to the con sumption, proves on what precarious footing the maintenance of the inhabitants is placed. The Victoria wheat has suc ceeded in Barhadoes and Jamaica, islands which cannot vie in fertility and diversity of soil with Guiana. Indeed, we have reason to hope that, with sufficient labour, a quantity equal to that raised about Calcutta might be produced in Guiana. If the dearth and famine be considered which at present is raging in New South Wales and Van Diemen's Land, it becomes almost the sacred duty of the legislative body to encourage by all means in their power the introduc tion and extensive cultivation of this cereal grain, to prevan a similar calamity, which, thanks to the Almighty and Oig. fertility of 'The soil, has been hitherto unknown in British Guiana. " The only English colonies where that nutritious and wholesome substance, cocoa, is cultivated, are Trinidad, St. Vincent, and Grenada: in Jamaica and Guiana it has giVen place to the production of sugar; and though it forms such an important article in the import of the United Kingdoin, the quantity introduced from British plantations is but tri fling. The cocoa tree delights in a rich and springy soil,; or in which which irrigation may be admitted. While we crossed from the river I3erbice, to the Essequibo, we that a number of chacolate nut trees, near the abandoned Caribi settlement of Primoss. It is not to be doubted that the trees were originally planted by the Indians ; but, from their num ber and the distance from the river, I judged they were pro,. pagated by nature : though they were overshaded by larger trees, and had for many years been n e gl e cted, they h a d reached nevertheless a height of from thirty to forty feet, and the luxuriant growth and the abundance bf fruit proved that' the plant was satisfied with the soil. The forests at the banks of the Rio Branco, in the vicinity'of Santa Maria and Carmo, abound in wild cocoa trees, the fruits of which are collected by the scanty population of that district for their own use. The cultivation of cocoa will be most suitable to the less wealthy individual, - as it demands so little labour and outlay. M. de Humboldt observe's, in alluding to SPinish America, that cocoa plantations are occupied by persons of humble condition, who prepare for themselves and their children a slow but certain fortune ; a single labourer is sufficient to aid them in their plantations, and thirty thousand trees, once established, assure competence for a generation and a half. " Different species of vanilla are natives of Guiana ; and it is found in large quantities along the banks of its rivers, and in the wooded districts which intersperse the savannahs. It is well known that it is added to chocolate to give it an aro matic flavour, but it is likewise used for several other pur poses in confectionary ; and the oily and balsamic substance which the minute seeds possess may be found to have medi cinal qualities. Its cultivation can be connected with no difficulties ; it needs only to plant the slips among trees, and to keep them clear of weeds. It would prove, therefore, a great addition to a cocoa plantation. In 1825 the price was in Germany sixty rix-dollars (equal to nine pounds) per pound, and twenty-five to thirty dollars are paid for it in Martinique. " Tobacco is considered indigenous in South America, whence it is said to have found its way to Virginia, from which place it was introduced by Sir Walter Raleigh. Though it cannot be considered a necessary of life, its use is so ex tensive, that it forms a considerable item in the revenue of nations, and its successful cultivation is therefore of impor tance. With the exception of the Macuba tobacco, which is cultivated in Martinique in a peculiar soil, the tobacco of Cuba is considered the finest in the world. The sample of tobacco which I sent from the interior of British Guiana to the commercial rooms in Georgetown, was pronounced to be equal in quality to the Havana, and even to surpass it, in consequence of its thinner ribs ; indeed it was observed by an able judge, that tobacco of equal quality had never been imported in Guiana. " At every Indian settlement some tobacco plants are found to be cultivated at their provision fields ; but when once planted, no further attention is paid to it, and the leaf is cured in the most simple manner, by being hung up in the Indian's but ; it possesses, nevertheless, what a connoisseur would call high flavour and aromatic qualities : how much more might its excellence be increased by proper attention being paid to its cultivation ! " The cinnamon tree, though not indigenous, has been successfully cultivated in the Isle of Bourbon and the Mau ritius, and it is now naturalized in those isles. It was intro duced into Guiana in 1772, and there are a few planters who have several specimens of that aromatic tree in their gardens : however, it has never become an object of export. The healthy state of the trees and their luxuriant growth would en sure its becoming an article of commerce. The surface of the land where it is cultivated in Ceylon is a pure white sand, under which is a deep stratum of rich mould. The extensive tracts south of the sandy ridges present the same soil in Bri tish Guiana. We are told that from twenty-five to twenty six thousand people are employed in Ceylon in the cultiva tion of the cinnamon tree, and the preparation of its bark for commerce. I have already observed, that a wild kind of cinnamon is indigenous in Guiana, the bark of which is used as a simple by the natives. " Of equal interest would prove the cultivation of the nut meg. . Trials have been made in Trinidad ; and samples having been submitted to the society for the encouragement of arts, they pronounced them equal to the eastern produce, and awarded their gold medal to the successful cultivator. The principal supply of nutmegs is at present imported from the east ; but to prove the importance of the cultivation of the cultivation of the nutmeg tree, I observe that the average home consumption is estimated at ten thousand pounds every month, or one hundred and twenty thousand pounds per annum. Guiana possesses an indigenious species of the nut meg tree ; however, its fruits are small and very pungent, and cannot be used as a spice. " Pepper has been cultivated with great success in Cayenne, and it forms already an article of export. The rich soil in mountains, valleys, or along the banks of rivers which are not subjected to inundations, is considered to be the most eligible ; the plant is trailed azainst other trees, and might be raised in company with nutmeg and cinnamon trees. " The pepper plant bears abundantly, and in Sumatra a full-grown vine has been known to produce six to seven pounds ; the average produce of one thousand vines is, how ever, stated to produce only about four hundred and fifty pounds. The pimento, or allspice, is a native of South Ame rica, and would have become undoubtedly an article of high interest if the spices of the eastern heMisphere had not been previously introduced. In Jamaica it thrives where nothing else would grow : if Guiana should enter, therefore, into the cultivation of spice, a favourite situation for that tree might be easily found on the banks of the Rupununi. " The cultivatiou of rice would prove a very productive branch of husbandry; and as it has formed of late years a principal article of food for the labouring population, it is of great importance that it should be cultivated in sufficient quantities, if not for export, by all means for the internal demand of the colony, which does not employ the resources which she possesses to produce food for her inhabitants. The all-engrossing object, the cultivation of sugar, has for seve ral years usurped thousands of acres which were formerly dedicated to the production of plantains, once the chief food of the labourer. The land on the coast is no doubt well adapted for the production of rice ; hut we will not encroach upon the soil at present planted with sugar-cane. There is a tract between the rivers Berbice and Essequibo, in 4 20 N. latitude, which nature itself appears to have designed for the growth of that article. It possesses the means of constant irrigation ; and at the first subsiding of the periodical inun dations, when the soil is left like soft mud, the seeds might be put in. The banks of the river Berbice are here so low, that irrigation might be easily procured even in times of great drought. lam fully persuaded in my mind, that two crops of rice might be procured annually ; indeed it is on re cord, that a Mr. Bielstein, who cultivated this article on a small scale at the lower Essequibo, raised repeatedly three crops in a year. IN BURGHS. —A difference, apparently irreconcileable, has arisen between Sir A. Leith Hay and Captain Grant of Carnousie, the rival candidates, on the liberal side, for this district of Burghs. They ca T a n d e i Lh t had entered into a mutual agree ment, 'ELGIN n rathrlitiwaoyafsphrfeoisrprival ; his canvass, was found, on a e who, after the completion of fewer number of votes, was bound of lists, to have the n to retire from the contest, whereby and leave a clear stage to his more fortunate rival. The canvassing on both sides completed, a difference arose as to the manner in which a scrutiny aa of a ) lis e ts l should be conducted, proposing g ing the l ilsetatl to the ballot, while ,however,ement of the case to oac•9uld acquiesce and so all negotiation liar confidence between arbitration. Neither candidate them was dropped, both appealing, with equal i CS n iar t p h lk e alni proposal Ge i ultimate success, to the electors. Captain Grant a fidence of consoles a himself with the consciousness "of havin g secured large majority of the bona fide electors, in th 9 district, pledged to support him, of from seventy to a hun dred, over Si Leith Hay;" while, on the other h and, S ir Andrew declares that A. that " he has too much confi dence in the sa g aci ty andex perience of the electors, to believ e that they will place any reliance on the assertions made as to majorities," which, in his opinion, can have " only a short-lived effect, as an in tegral portion of a system based upon trick and deceit." This upshot of the matter is none other than might have been expected; for the paction made between the rivals, although plausible enough in theory, was hardly susceptible of being carried into practice. The parties are, therefore, pretty much " as they were ;" and their present position is certainly calculated to divide the liberal interest, and to enhance the chances of success on which the Conservative candidate, Mr. Duff, confidently, and we believe, justly reckons.—Aber deen Journal. SECOND EDITION. Standard Office, Three o'clock. LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE,—This DAY In addition to the arrivals, alluded to on Friday, we have no supplies of consequenee to notice beyond a few parcels of Wheat, unexpectedly from Ireland, and of Flour from the United States, increasing the latter since Tuesday last to 14,554 barrels. Upon a favourable change in the weather, and having a slender attendance of buyers to-day, the operations in fo reign Wheats were upon a moderate scale only ; and although fine red Baltic samples were held at comparatively high prices, the general runs hardly supported the advance of Friday, and English as well as Irish scarcely exceeded our quotations of this day se'nnight. Of bonded Wheats a few parcels have been taken since Friday within the range of the subjoined currency, but no furiher sales have transpired to-day ; in Flour under lock also, the transactions have been limited this morning, the buyers refusing to pay the advance required ; free Flour, however, continued in tolerable demand, at 6d. per barrel over the rates of this day se'nnight. Barley, attended with a fair inquiry for grinding, was 3d. to 4d. per bushel dearer. In Malt, Beans, and Peas we have no change to note. Fine Oats, although ssarce, were not dearer, and other de scriptions were difficult of sale at former prices. —Oatmeal, likewise, excited very little notice, and scarcely sustained its previous value.

At our market this morning we had a fair show of English Wheat fresh up from the neighbouring counties ; and having experienced an improving demand from our millers, a clear ance was readily effected, the best samples realising an ad vance of Is_ per quarter on the quotations of this day se'nnight. Free foreign Wheat was likewise more inquired for, and a similar improvement was obtained on the finest qualities. There was not much doing in Flour, but both town and country manufactured fully supported last week's prices. In grinding Barley there was a fair steady business transacted, and the rates of Monday last were steadily main tained. We have to report a moderate fresh arrival of Oats. Coastwise and from Ireland the trade in this Grain was by no means brisk, but factors being firm in their demands, pur chases could not have been made on lower terms than on this day se'nnight. Beans and Peas were in short supply, and quite as dear. SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. TUESDAY, JUNE 30.—Wind W.N.W. .........

SO MWEIGHT OF LETTERS.—By an attention to the following particulars the troublesome operation of weighing a letter to send by post will be rendered perfectly unnecessary. The weight which a letter may pass through the post-office to \ any distance for one penny i s h a lf an ounce, or 2181 grains. An ordinary sheet of post quar t o wr iti n g paper weighs about 120 grains ; large thick post, 180 ; small thin post, such as is used on the continent, about 65 grains. The ordinary quan tity of wax upon a letter weighs six grains ; 20 dips of ordi nary ink from a steel pen wei g h s a b ou t f ou r grains ; when the moisture is evaporated it only weighs one grain. A drop of water weighs about one grain ; a letter carried in the hand exposed to a slight shower will gain in weight from 10 to 25 grains in five minutes :—No. 1, post quarto sheet of paper, 120 grains ; wax six grains, ink one grain ; total 127 grains. No. 2, thick . post, 180 grains ; .wax six grains ; ink one grain ; total 187 grains. No. 3, sma ll t hi n post, 65 gra i ns; wax s i x grains ; ink one grain ; t o t a l 72 gra i ns. Th us a l et t er con sisting of a sheet and a half of No. 1, or of three sheets of No. 3, may be transmitted for a penny. &bippfig Intelligente. FRIDAY, h.;Nic 26.—Wind N.W.

There continues a very good demand for all descriptions, of Sugar, and a further advance has been established of fully 2s per cwt. The sales of B.P. are 1700 hhds. nearly all to the Grocers ; and 4800 bags Bengal have also been taken, at 76s to 77s 6d for ordinary to good white.—Foreign Sugar. 100 brls of white Pernambuco were taken for export at 25s to 25s 6d.—Bonded Refined. No sales reported.— Molasses have participated in the advance quoted in Sugar, and Igo puns. Antiguas have been sold from the quay at 42s per cwt.—Cof fee. The sales of Plantation comprise 140 casks of Jamaica, mostly at irregular prices, and in some instances at a decline of 2s to 3s per cwt. ; the Trade, however, at present evince more disposition to purchase, but Importers generally are not much inclined to realize, in consequence of recent advices from Jamaica, fully confirming the reports of a very short crop. Of Foreign, a small lot of ordinary Brazil brought 46s 6d per cwt.—No sales of Cocoa or Ginger. -500 bags Pimento have been taken for export at 2id to 21d, and 200 bags black Pepper at 4d per lb.—Rice. The sales are limited to 100 bags, at 13s 3d per cwt.—Rum. The business consists of 130 puns. De merara, at full prices, and a few hhds. Bengal, 32 per cent. O.P. at 4s 4d per gallon. Tea.

The market has been flat throughout the mouth, and prices are again lower, although our present stock is only 2850 hhds. against 8700 same time last year. Only a moderate demand exists for Brimstone, but the stock in private hands much reduced, prices are fully supported for the few small parcels which are taken weekly by the consumers —Nothing worthy of notice has been done in Sumac.—Some few sales have been made in Argols, chiefly Oporto descriptions, which have solo rather lower.—Cream of Tartar and brown Tartar steady ; a few sales of white and discoloured Tartar were made at full prices. -130 bales 'Turkey, 30 bales French Roots, and casks Dutch Madder are reported as sold, blit no prices transpired.—Some business has been done in Lemon Juice, but no price named.—No sales of Quercitrou Bark.—The market for Olive Oil remains in a dormant state, the little business done this week having barely supported the previous prices. —The new arrivals of pale Seal Oil continue to find ready buyers for export at £25 10s per tun, and at this price some business has again taken place in cargoes to arrive; for other kinds of Fish Oils the market is dull; the sale of dark Whale Oil reported last week at £22 10s, should have been 423 105 per tun ; another par cel has been sold below this price.—For pale Rape as well as Lin seed Oil, a little more demand has appeared, and in some instances a small advance has been realized.—ln Oil of Turpentine, if any change can be noticed, the price may be called a shade lower, but there is little doing.—The sales of Palm Oil amount to 160 tons, at the quotations, and 100 tons, for late arrival, at £3s.—Petersburg clean Hemp is in fair demand at £36 per ton; Jute continues in good request at rather higher rates ; 600 bales Bombay Hemp were offered by auction yesterday, but no part sold, the quality ordinary to good, for the latter description £2l per ton asked.—ln Tallow there is no change to notice ; the demand is less brisk, but the mar ket continues steady at last week's prices, small sales of yellow Candle being effected at 53s 6d per cwt. ' LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, JUNE 26. Extensive purchases have been made, both by the trade and spe culators, without, however, producing any alteration in prices. Speculators have taken 8500 American, and exporters 800 American and 300 Surat. Accounts have been received to-day to the 3rd instant, from Savannah, confirmed by advices from Charleston and New York, of serious inundations in Georgia and South Carolina. It has been ascertained that during • the last six months about 2000 bags of Sea Island has been forwarded into the country unsold, which have been reported under the head of American.

The arrivals of British Grain, Flour and Oatmeal continue small, but from abroad the imports of the last seven days comprise up wards of 14,100 qrs. of Wheat and 18,500 brls. of Flour. Duties have been paid upon 694 qrs. of Wheat, 792 qrs. of Oats, 720 qrs. of Barley, 139 qrs. of Beans, and 408 brls. of Flour. Throughout the week the weather has been cold and unsettled, giving increas ing firmness to holders of both Wheat and Flour, and a corres ponding tendency to higher prices; this, however, has somewhat checked the demand, and we can report only a moderate business in Wheat at about 2d per bushel over our previous quotations. American Flour is 6d per bushel dearer: about 7000 barrels have changed hands, in bond, at 25s 3d to 26s per barrel. Oats and Oatmeal have continued to meet a limited inquiry, without change as to value. No alterations as regard Barley, Beans, or Beans. LIVERPOOL PROVISION MARKET, JUNE 29. An animated demand has sprung up for dry Butters, and prices generally may be noted about 2s per cwt. higher; Fine Carlow, Kilkenny, &c. we quote 95s to 965; Belfast, 95s to 965; Bainbridge, gos to 925. The cause of our present improvement appears to be a scarcity which exists in London. Pickled Butter continues a rather slow sale, at 88s to gos. Beef and Pork remain as noted in our last, and the currency of Bacon (particularly of good quality) is supported. .CES CURRENT. siAmpER, 19, cwt. s. d. S. d.
