Vottrp. THE STOUT OLD BRITISH SHIP. Hurrah nfor the stout old British ship, The monarch of the sea ! That bounds like a greyhound from the slip, `When the sails are loosen'd free! That, spite of the storm and deadly gun, . Ne'er yet its course gave o'er; And never knew what 'twas to run A hostile flag before! It long has the bulwark been of our rights, Of our freedom still the stay ; Then give to the brave old British ship, Three British'4eers—hurrah! When Nelson trope its quarter-deck, Its glory was in its prime ; r. Victory he had at his finger-beck, ..• As proved in every clime : When England was honotted and fear'd by all, And nations sung her praise ; - • But that is a tale we may not recal In these degenerate days; For the stout old ship lies idly ashore, Laid up like a useless tree ; Its battles and cruises now are o'er, Though it still is fit for sea! The vaunting foreigner long has felt Its thunder on the main, And he smiles when he thinks the blows it dealt ... Shall ne'cr be dealt again. But the spirit of Nelson is not dead, It bounds in a hundred hearts, And his story of fame is remembered and read, And studied with our charts ! For cherished with care is the glory it won, The meed of a thousand years And its foes will fly,as they often have done, When the stout old ship appears! When the brave old ship, as bright as morn, Hoists high its well-known flag ; The flag that has still been unsullied borne, Since the days of Drake and Sprague ; Let's see who'll dare dispute its right, To the empire of the main, — 'Twill prove its title clear and bright, Against the world again ! Then give to the stout old British ship, Of our freedom still the stay, That long has the bulwark been of our rights, Three British cheers—hurrah! LITERARY NOTICES. The Pilgrim's Progress: in two Parts. • By John Bunyan. 1 , With Original Notes by the Rev. Thomas Scott, Rector of Aston Sandford, Bucks. Eighth Edition. London : L. and G. Seeley, Fleet-street. 1840. The intrinsic value and excellence of the Pilgrim's Pro gress may be inferred from the high estimation in which it has been held, during the last and present centuries, by every denomination of Christians. There is scarcely a language in the civilized world into which it has not been translated. In this country we do not know of any work that has enjoyed a larger circulation, excepting the Sacred Volume whose truths it so beautifully and affectingly illustrates and enforces. Among. the testimonies to the interest. excited by the perusal of this admirable work we find that of Dr. Johnson, who re marked that " the Pilgrim's Progress must be ranked among a very few books indeed, of which the reader, when he comes to the conclusion, wishes they had been longer." It would be superfluous to add anything in its praise. . The present edition is the best that we have ever seen. The well known character of the Rev. Thomas Scott, as one of the ablest commentators on tl.e Bible, is a sufficient guarantee for the orthodoxy of the accompanying notes, which are equal in extent to the text, of the work. The biography is a very valuable addition to the volume, and it is almost un necessary to add that it breathes a truly catholic spirit. The plates, after Stothard, are beautifully executed. We do not know of any human production more worthy of the aid of art than the Pilgrim's Progress. As a suitable and elegant pre sent for the young we would recommend this volume in pre ference to all the annuals ever published. The Redeemer. A Poem. By William Howorth, Author of "The Cry of the Poor." London : Charles Tilt, Fleet street. 1840. In these days, when mediocre poetry is so abundant, it is quite refreshing to meet with a work like the one before us, evincing as it does genius of the highest order, sanctified by deep and fervent piety, and consecrated to the most hal lowed purposes. The subject of this poem is one which ought never to be approached but with the deepest awe and reverence. Such, we are happy to say, has been the spirit in which the author has ventured on a theme so sublime as the redemption. The greatest attraction which this work pre sents to the Christian reader is, the religious tone by which it is pervaded. The language throlghout the poem is so lemn, unaffected, and eminently adapted to the subject. The imagery employed is natural and undistorted. The versifica tion is flowing and harmonious. We feel convinced that this work must become popular among the Christian public. No one can rise from its perusal without acknowledging that the author is a man of commanding and original genius, and en titled to take his stand among the sacred bards of Great Britain. We sincerely hope that the success attendant upon the present effusion may stimulate him to future efforts. Extracts from Holy Writ, and Various Authors, intended as Helps to Meditation and Prayer, principally for Soldiers and Seamen. By Capt. Sir Nesbit J. Willoughby, R.N., &c. Lonaori : prinfed for. the Autlioi., or COmpiler, for Gratuitous Circulation, by r." H. Coe, 27, Old Change, Cheapside. 1839. _ _ This excellent compendium of scriptural knowledge is ad mirably adapted for the purpose for which it was intended by its^benevolent author. It is composed of striking passages from the Sacred Volume, pithy extracts from the works of eminent divines, interpersed with several original reflections. The extracts are neither arranged under distinct heads, nor placed so as to have any peculiar connection with each other. The volume may be opened at any page, and read, as it were, by snatches. We trust that its perusal may be found useful. to many; especially among those classes for which the author feels such deep solicitude. We would particularly recom mend this volume as a companion in the sick chamber, where works of a more connected character can seldom be read without superinducing an aggravation of suffering. Observations on the History and Evidence of the Resurrec tion of Jesus Christ. By Gilbert West, Esq. Edinburgh : Adam and Charles Black, North Bridge. This and the following form a part of the series of " Christian Literature." now in course of publication. We have already expressed our opinion of the plan and execution of this invaluable series. From the extreme cheapness of the treatises which have already appeared, we have no doubt that they will obtain a very extensive circulation. The work before us is one of considerable celebrity. It was written in answer to a pamphlet, published about the middle of the last century, entitled, " The Resurrection of Jesus constdered, in answer to the Trial of the Witnesses; by a Moral Philo sopher." The author of that pamphlet, in order to overturn the testimony of the evangelists, attempted to show that they contradicted each other in the accounts which they gave of the fact of the resurrection. The object of the work before us is, to clear the sacred writers from the imputation of con tradicting each other, as well as to illustrate and confirm their testimony. The author has fully and triumphantly succeeded in his vindication of the divine records. His proofs are clear and unquestidnable, and his arguments remain unanswered and unanswerable. A Practical Treatise on Regeneration. By John Wither spoon, D.D. Edinburgh Adam and Charles Black. This work has always been considered a master-piece on the subject of which it treats. In the author's views we cor dially concur. From the expression, " Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God," and other similar expressions, the inference drawn is, that the change implied, and which is meant under the term regeneration, is not merely partial, but universal—that it is not merely ex ternal and imperfect,.but inward, essential, and complete— and that it is supernatural in its nature and origin. We cordially recommend this work to the notice of all who de sire a clear and evangelical elucidation of the subject. The Omnipresence of the Deity. By the Rev. R. Mont gomery, A.M. Sixteenth Edition. Glasgow :.John Sym ington and Co. This is emphatically "The People's Edition" of Mr, Montgomery's popular works. The price, considering the execution of the work, is exceedingly moderate, and we hope it will obtain an extended circulation. On the merits of The Omniprescence of the Deity we have already pronounced our opinion. It abounds with glowing imagery, lofty thoughts, and touching appeals to the purer feelings of our nature. Poetry of the highest order is here allied to the most fervent piety. That man must, indeed, be very destitute of religion, taste, or feeling, who can rise from the p erusa l of this poem w i t h ou t pleasure and edification. The Christian Observer. January, ign . This number contains several very interesting articles " The Ten Virgins" is an excellent essay. The remarks on " Court Circular Religious Announcements" are peculiarly appropriate, and much called for. The meditations from " Sir H. Wotton's Reliquge" are highly beautiful and elo buent. " A Fortnight in England : by a French Protestant," is a very characteristic diary, quaint and original in' its style. The " Specimens of Romanist Superstitions in Germany" will be perused with a melancholy degree of interest. They exhibit Popery in some of its most hideous lights. The Accordance of the Church of England with Scripture; and the Dis-ordance of Independency and other Forms Dissent from Scripture. A Sermon preached at St. Mi chael's, Liverpool, at the request of the Young Men's Church of England Association. By the Rev. Joseph Baylee, A.B. London : Whittaker and Co.; Liverpool : Lace and Addison, Perris, and Newling. 1839. This sermon constitutes one of the most masterly defences of the Church of England that we have ever met with. The respected author has most triumphantly established the po sition assumed in the title. He has irrefragably proved the strict accordance of the Church with the revealed will of Christ, and as triumphantly proved the manifest discordance of Independency and other forms of dissent from the scrip tures. The sermon treats of the nature and purposes of the Christian Church—the connection between Church and State—the affairs of the Christian Church—the extent of the authority in .tbe Church—the ordinances and doctrines of the Church—and the unlawfulness of dissent or schism. All these topics are handled with great ability. Many of the Reverend Preacher's illustrations are striking and original, and cannot fail to carry conviction into every candid and un prejudiced mind. His appeals to scripture are forcible and unanswerable. His language, which it is chaste, eloquent, and dignified, is, at the same time, plain and intelligible to the most ordinary capacity. We cordially recommend this sermon as a powerful antidote to the poisonous trash so ex tensively disseminated by voluntaries and infidels. The Educator and Children's Cyclopcedia. By W. Martin. No. 1. London: Sherwood and Co., Paternoster Row. To this work, we are happy to say, we can give our cordial and unqualified recommendation. It is especially designed for the edification of youth, and very successfully blends amusement with instruction. One of its main features is, to convey religious instruction in connection with, but not in subordination to, general information. The author is an attached member of the Church of England, and he as sures his readers that "he con only teach according to the convictions of his mind and conscience." He adds that "he has long been of opinion, and is daily strengthened in his conviction, that religion is the only sound basis of all educa tion ; and that, without it forms a prominent feature in every course of tuition, there is no hope either for the teacher, or the individual taught." The work embraces a series of ex positions of christian faith and practice—teachings from nature—the philosophy of common things—natural history —natural philosophy—ancient and modern history—the arts and manufacturing processes—travels and adventures in all parts of the world—tales, historical and social, grave and gay—drawing and the fine arts—and sports and amusements. From the specimen before us we have no hesitation in say ing that it possesses all the elements of popularity. Report of the Chester Diocesan Board of Education. War- rington : J. W. Booth. 1839. In this valuable and carefully compiled report we have a full exposition of the objects contemplated in the compre hensive plan of education for the middle classes, now in course of developement, throughout almost every diocese in the kingdom, under the auspices of the National Society. In the introduction to this report we have a full explanation of the arrangements approved of for the effectual working of the plan to which we have alluded. The report itself embo dies all the rules and regulations adopted in the diocese of Chester. together with a list of all the officers appointed in each deanery. The analysis of the state of education in the diocese is a very valuable document embracing very copious statistical details respecting the population, and the number of children educated both in connection with the Church of England, and under Roman Catholic and dissenting tuition. We rejoice to find that the Diocesan Society is going on prosperously, and we trust that the next report will show a great increase in the amount of subscriptions. CONTEMPORARY PRESS. CORN LAW AGITATION. (From the itafforelihire Gazette.) The agitation of the - Manchester mighty corn-law " league," although wound up on the 13th by a " grand banquet," turns out this year, as it did last, a complete failure ; the spouting emissaries who had been sent ,to raise the country, having been either scouted or beaten clOwn by argument at the various meetings which have been held; and this, principally by men of the working classes, who have not yet forgotten how completely they were made tools of, by the same parties, at the time of the reform mania. Whether we look at the notable list advertised in the Manchester papers, of president, vice-presidents, and stewards, and composed chiefly of Socinians and other dissenters from the church—all notoriously hostile to the established institutions of the country—or to the destructive character of the whig-radical members of parliament expected at the feed—twenty-seven in num ber, with O'Connell at their head : or to the absence of all the first-rate merchants, and all the first-rate commercial friends and professional men; there can be no doubt as to the object of these second-rate cot ton brawlers, 'always the most tyrannical and grinding with their workpeople. The object is no other than to pull down the landowners as the steady supporters of the church and the constitution, and the true friends of the lower classes ; and with them, the wages of their workmen. Now, as the members of this trickery " league," and the M.P.'s, who were invited to the dinner, are to a man advocates of the poor law, and of the free trade folly, which admits indiscriminately the cheap manufactured articles of other countries without compelling them to take our manufactures in return, — and are, besides, the notorious supporters of the wretched government which so grievously afflicts the nation, we seriously advise the working classes in this county, both agricultural and commercial, to be well on their guard how they lend their assistance, against their own interestS, to a set of second-rate cotton manufac turers of Manchester, who, under the pretence of cheap corn, would soon reduce their wages, as they have al ready reduced the wages of the poor hand-loom weav ers of Lancashire : viz., to the starvation point. It is well known to all the great leading merchants of Man chester, and to most of these corn "leaguers" too, that all the great ,corn,groVnig countries of the continent are, since the wari , become great manufacturing rivals, dwitrit; therefore, 'Want our goods ;—that they are many of them sellers instead of buyers, exemplified in a manner which ha's 'made the most sceptical no longer doubt ; by the extraordinary circumstance, that during the six months of last year, when such an amazing importation of wheat took place, at the low duty of ls. and 2s. Gd. a quarter, there was never known so few orders either for cotton twist or cotton goods for those countries from which . the corn was sent. It is also well known, that Prussia, which is at the head of these manufacturing states, has 'been permitted to place new duties twice upon British goods, at the very moment when the sapient ex-member of these " leaguers" (Poulett Thompson) reduced the duties on Prussian hemp and flax ; and that the German Commercial League, instituted for the sole purpose of excluding our manufactures, has been permitted to embrace eight German states, without any attempt being mad,: by a Whig government to arrest its progress. • It is also known that eight millions of sovereigns have been sent out of England to these, states, for corn, without their having taken British goods in exchange— a sum which, had it been spent amongst our own far mers, would at this moment have been circulating amongst our unemployed work-people, instead of af fording additional means of rivalry to the work-people of the continent. It is known too, that two millions are annually abstracted from the comforts of the work ing classes, under the name of free-trade, to pay France, which takes nothing but machinery in return, (in the face of existing laws against its exportation,) for silks, gloves; shoes, china, cambric, jewellery and millinery, wines, &c.; and this, after an experiment of fifteen years, during which the silk and glove trades have been destroyed, and the wages of British labour brought down to the French standard, at which no Englishman either can or ought to live. We have no time to follow the subject of free .trade, which we have been led into, at greater length at present ; but we cannot help men tioning as a sample of what our fellow townsmen may in their turn expect from it bye and bye, if the system he persevered in much • longer. We saw in the chief organ of the Corn " League' Gentry,—the Manchester Guardian of the Ist inst., an advertisement, stating that a depot had been opened at No. 27, King-street, Manchester, for the sale of Ladies and Gentlemen's French boots and shoes,—Gentlemen's Wellington boots, at 21s. a pair; shoes no doubt as low in pro portion. FACETI/E. The Boston Traveller says, the best snuff in the world is a snuff of the morning air. They have a judge in Missouri who glories in the name of Lawless, and a Mr. Gamble is the clerk of the court. A lawyer complained to a friend of Sir Chas. Wetherell'l coining so many words. " I would not care for his coining,' said George Rose, " if he would not utter them." A lady visiting the British'Museum inquired if they-had a skull of Newton j when answered in the negative, she said, " I wonder at that ; they have got one at Oxford." DoucLe .FARMERS.—The Siamese twins have purchased a farm in Wilkes county, N. C., and gone to farm it in real earnest. They drive a double team, and ought to raise a double crop. " My dear madam," said a doctor to his patient, " I am glad to see you yet in life. At my last visit yesterday, you know, I told you you had but six hours to live." " Yes, doctor, you did ; but I did not take the dose you left." A Yankee orator, wishing to conciliate some Germans just previous to an election, in order to obtain their votes, ob served, that though he was not a German himself, yet he had a brother who was.remarkably fond of German sausages !

The Grand Duke of Tuscany has restored the law piss ceases in civil cases within his dominions to the same system as prevailed when they were under the French empire, and the judges have assumed the same robes as those worn in the French courts. Professor the great antiquarian, died suddenly at Rome on the 31st ult. ; he has left many learned works. The Archeological Academy has sustained an irreparable loss. It is said that he died extremely poor.—French paper. POPISH INTRIGUES.—An establishment has been recently formed near Geneva, to serve as an asylum for such Protes. , tants as are inclined to embrace Catholicism. The Pope has contributed a small sum towards the first expenses, and granted certain indulgences for such persons as may support the institution. A letter from the canton of Uri states, that the road of the Mount St. Gothard is so impeded by snow, which• in differ ent places lies from 100 to 300 yards deep, that it is impas sable almost for foot passengers, as the frost has not been sufficiently severe to harden the snow, and avalanches are constantly falling. The boring instrument now at work for the Artesian well in the abattoir at Grenelle, has reached the depth of 508 metres, or- 1,66& feet. The earth brought up is still a greenish clay. It requires 4 horses and 12 men to keep the apparatus in action ; and it is daily hoped to see water burst up. The temperature increases a degree in warmth for every 30 yards penetrated downwards. An important discovery has been made by M. Didron, du ring his recent archeological tour in Greece and Turkey, of a Greek manuscript, about 200 years old, containing a com plete code of religious monumental paintings. This docu ment, found at Mount Athos, gives full instructions egucern ing all the subjects and persons that ought to be painted in churches, with the age, costume, and attributes that each figure ought to have. A copy of this manuscript is making at Mount Athos with the greatest care. Another manuscript, containing a similar code on religious architecture, is be lieved by M. Didron to exist at Adrianople, and he has some hopes of obtaining it.—French paper. Madame Gans, a lady at Berlin, distinguished for her talents, her large fortune, and her encouragement of litera ture and literary men, on returning home from the theatre on the night of the 3d instant, found her house surrounded by an immense crowd. Having, with great difficulty, made her way in, and reached her chamber, she there saw a body of armed police engaged with five robbers, who had broken open the doors and got in, while a sixth was dying on the sofa, the blood flowing from two wounds in his breast. The shock of this horrible sight was so severe that Madame Gans, who was in her 74th year, fell down in a fit of apoplexy, and expired almost instantaneously.—Paris paper. The old castle of the ancient Dukes of Coburg is considered impregnable, and is the place where the Elector of Saxony hid " Luther" after the Papal bull was issued ; in fact pro tection was first given to the Protestant cause by the house of Coburg, whose members embraced the reformed faith and who now are Protestants, and constantly attend the Lutheran church Upon the confirmation of the Princes Albert and Ernest, the Grand Duke ordered a medal to be struck to commemorate this event, which took place April 12, 1835 ; on the obverse are the portraits of the two young princes encircled with this inscription—" Ernst and Albert Prinzen Von S Coburg-Gotlia." And on the reverse, encircled with a wreath of oak, " Confirmt Den 12 April, 1835." In the castle remain to this day the relics of Luther—his inkstand, seat, and writing-table, and his portrait by Lucas Cranach, which are preserved with religious veneration by the reign ing family. The following extraordinary story is related by the Au dience:—" The town of Saint Germain l' Herm, in the Pay de Dome, and its neighbourhood," says this • journal, " have been thrown into consternation ; the communications are in terrupted, and the letter carriers have suspended their service. An animal of great ferocity desolates the country, attacking men and animals. Its victims are innumerable. It made its first appearance in the commune of Fournois, where the inhabitants of an entire village were horribly torn to pieces. Far from being terrified at cries or numbers, it was in the midst of groups that it showed the greatest fury. The com munes of Fournois, Chambon, Saint Germain-l'Herm, and St. Bonnet, have been the theatre of its exploits. A great number of persons were torn so horribly, that many of them died, and others are in such a state that death would be pre ferable, for some have lost an arm, others a leg, and some even had their skulls fractured." After this description of the ravages of the animal, the correspondent of the Audience favours us with that of the monster itself, as it is not to be found in Bufl'on. "Itis of the size of an ordinary wolf, and is striped like a tiger, black and white. Its hair stands up like the quills of a porcupine, its skin is hard and scaly," (the Audience does not say how the terrified inhabitants suc ceeded% making such minute observations), "his feet are armed with sharp claws, which leave their sanguinary mark upon all that they touch. Our mountaineers say it is a hyena, similar to that which once ravaged the department of the Lozere, and they are therefore in such a state of alarm, that they will only venture out in largei bodies (en caravanes), armed with pikes, hatchets, and scythes, and placing the women in the centre, for it is upon them principally that this ferocious beast vents its fury." SWINDLING IN PARIS.—The police are still actively en gaged in putting down private gaming houses. The cercle (club-house), in the Vivienne, has ,been suppressed, for the present at least, andvisits have been paid to several similar establishments. Some English.. Chevaliers d' Industrie, of whom there are still a great number in Paris, have received a polite intimation that their absence will be more agreeable than their company ; one of them the notorious Captain —, of duelling notoriety, has been absent for some time in consequence of such an intimation. The following story is told of his departure. He was living in a first-rate hotel with a lady, when he received notice to quit. He_ owed a heavy account, but the landlord was not uneasy, as he knew that he and the lady had an abundant and splendid wardrobe. 'flairing taken places for himself and his chere amie, without, of course, letting his landlord know of his intended depar ture, he invited nine or ten of his acquaintances ,to dinner, and " to come in cloaks." After a splendid dinner the party left, and the porter of the house, who had seen them enter_ in cloaks, did not of course think it singular that they . should leave in the same manner. On the following morning the: captain called for his bill, and told the landlord he was going to his banker's to get a draft cashed. He then went out with the lady, and paid a visit to a friend, where all their ward robe and other effects, which had been conveyed away under the cloaks of his guests, were waiting for him, with three or four new trunks _which had been purchased. At three o'.clock in the afternoon he was on his way to Brussels. At night the landlord, being surprised at his not returning, went into his room and saw all the trunks safe, but fancied they were very, light. On the following morning a commissary of .pOlicewas called in, and the trunks were found to be empty. THE RESTORATION OF THE JEWS. (To the Editor of the Staffordshire Gazette.) SIR,—A few months past you ably pointed out the course of policy to be pursued by this country in the affairs of the East, and gave some reasons for supposing the period of the Jews' restoration to be at hand. If you will allow me, I will present some more powerful motives to the country, urging it to assist the scattered people now about to rise into glory and power; and show, both from the Prophets and the general aspect of the times, that the "time of the indigna tion" is nearly at an end—that upon us, indeed, are the lat ter days come. In the first place, I shall point out how remarkably many different prophetic dates terminate in one year, 1844, all commencing their reckoning from perfectly independent and different circumstances. fshall consider to begin with the prophecies of Daniel relating to the " abomination which , maketh desolate," referring it, as all commentators agree, to the Nahommedans ; and it is remarkable, that Sophro nius' the patriarch of Jerusalem, at the time of its occupa tion by Omar and the Saracens, should have used, when be holding their entry, this very expression, " This is, indeed, the abomination spoken of by Daniel the prophet." Now; the duration of this abomination, or the period to scatter the holy people, is, according to the prophet, a time, times, and a half, which corresponds to 1260 days, or prophetic years ; and, commencing the calculation from the flight of Mahomet, the first year of the Hegira, A.D. 622, and 1260 years termi nate in 1844 ; 1260 lunar orMahommedan years end in 1044. In the Apocalypse the duration of the power of the beast that had blasphemy written on its forehead, is forty and two months, and the time of the woman travailing in the wilder ness is 1260 days of years, or a time, times, and the dividing of times. These, as they do not refer to the Mohamme dans, but to the Popish beast and his oppressions, must be counted solar years,_ and calculated from the commencement of Papal power. Pope Pelagius first declared his infalli bility, and, consequently, first had the name of blasphemy written on his forehead, in'the year A.D. 584, 1260 years, or 42 solar months from that date, end in 1844. The little horn of the fourth beast spoken of by Daniel, and mentioned again by St. John, that was to have power !of a time, times, and the dividing of time, is undoubtedly iek i ttical in all its marks with the Papal horn, and commencing, like it, in A.D. 584, it ends also in 1844. There were to be 2300 days, or years to the cleansing of the sanctuary foretold by Daniel—the dif ficulty here is, where to begin the calculation from ; I think there are many reasons for reckoning the symbolical cleansing by Ezra. The decree of Artaxerxes to Ezra was given in B.C. 456, 2300 years from that date end in 18 4 4 — the time when the Jews will take first possession of their land amidst strife and tumult such as the world has never seen. But there is another.and a remarkable date yet to be consi dered : the sixth woe, or trumpet, is to last a day, a month, a year, and an hour. A day or one year, a month or 30 years, a year or 360 years, and an hour or 15. days, in all 391 and a few days. This woe isto commence after the loosing of the enemy from the great river Euphrates, and is usually referred to the Turks. The most marked period of their history, after their advance from the river, is the taking of Constantinople, A.D. 1453 ; the 391 years from that time end in 1844. I have here pointed out six dates ending in 1844, all referring to the contemporaneous events of the restoration of the Jews, and the judgment of the dragon and the beast. There are two %ore dates when some other pro phecies terminate in 1873, when the 1290 years are accom pll bed, extirpated—see Daniel ;—and if the 2300 years are reckoned. from Artaxerxes' commission to Nehemiah, instead of Ezra, B.C. 427, they end in 1873, the final cleansing of the sanctuary. On that date will Gog and Magog be buried. The armies of Gog and Magog are said in Ezekiel to take seven months burying ; seven months are 210 days of years, or half a time. I still follow commen tators in supposing the armies of Gog and Magog to be the Mahommedans, and it is remarkable that when 1873 arrives, the Turks will have been just 210 years declining or burying, for their last conquest was Candia, in A.D. 1669, since which time they have uninterruptedly declined in power and domi nion. Vain, then, are the efforts of_ nations to uphold the integrity of the Ottoman empire—the sure voice of.prophecy has declared it must fall ! Here are three eras terminating in 1873 ; two more very remarkable prophecies end in 1917. the 1337 years of Daniel, when the era of Blessedness com mences, and the last of the four tyrannical empires is finally broken up and completely destroyed. The four great em pires are typified by the images of Nebuchadnezzar, the head of which was gold, and the toes iron, mixed with clay. " Thou art this head of gold," says the prophet to the king, and the holy Roman empire is the iron mixed with clay, and "it must endure until seven times have passed over.' Se ven times seven weeks of years, or 2520 days or prophetic years, beginning, of course, withi the reign of this head of gold, Nebuchadnezzar, in B.C. 603, in 1917 the 2520 years will be ended, and the prophecy accomplished.

Our market this morning was rather sparingly supplied with English Wheat, and as' the condition of most of the samples was much affected by the damp state of the weather, we experienced a dull trade in this grain ; the few choice dry parcels on sale found purchasers slowly at about the quota tions of this day se'nnight, but all secondary descriptions hung heavily on hand, although offered on lower terms. Foreign Wheat was held firmly at last week's prices, but the transactions which took place were altogether of a retail character. Flour, both of town and country manufacture, met a very limited demand, and the previous value of the article remained unaltered. With the exception of the finest Malting sorts, of which we had a very short supply, all kinds of Barley are very difficult of disposal, and in cases where sales were forced a reduction of Is. per qr. on the currency of Monday last had to be submitted to. Of Oats the fresh receipts brought coastways and from Ireland have been ex tremely small, and a fair steady trade was done in this article to-day, at fully former prices. Beans were scarce, and the turn dearer. In Peas we have no alteration to notice. SECOND EDITION. Standard-Vice, Three o' Clock . LIVERPOOL MARKETS.-THIS DAY. CORN EXCHANGE. In addition to the large imports noticed in our circular of Tuesday last, we have to report since : then, from various sources, a moderate supply of Wheat, Barley, and Oats, a fair quantity of Beans and Pease, with upw4rds of 12000 scks of Oatmeal from Ireland, and 11,396 barrels of Flour from Virginia and New York, as stated underneath. The dull accounts received this morning from Mark-lane, appeared not to produce any further material influence upon the Wheat trade here to-day : on the contrary, as the millers have been lately on the reserve, and needy buyers were obliged to supply their immediate wants, the transactions in the general qualities of foreign Wheats were effected to a moderate extent at the reduced rates of Friday ; and although in English little business was done, and Irish new was al most wholly neglected, the market closed rather more firmly for the two former descriptions. All kinds of free Flour continued to meet a very limited demand, on rather lower terms ; and bonded samples, still moving off slowly, were offered at 295. per barrel. Barley and Malt remained in slow , request at former prices. Beans dull of sale at the decline above mentioned ; and Peas scarcely obtained our last quOtations. Oats, with a little improvement in the demand, recovered the rates of this day se'nnight ; and Oatmeal, for which the holders were in a few instances disposed to recede, nearly maintained its late value.

Mr. Parker has given a formal contradiction to the rumour that he was about to retire' from the representation of the Southern division of Devonshire. A white, or Albino woodcock, was shot at Westwood Park, the demesne of .1. S. Pakington, Esq., M.P., last week, by one of the shooting party there assembled.

RUMOURED INDISCRETION IN HIGH LIFE.--The un fortunate separation of anoble lord from his lady is just now a topic of leading interest, and the circumstance has thus been represented in the fashionable circles :—lt is stated that the lady was discovered in a situation of very proximate famili arity with an illustrious personage who was on a visit at the time at the hospitable mansion of a noble friend, where the unfortunate couple were also staying. A marriage now on the tapis, so singularly mixes up some of the individuals con cerned, as to give a very painful novelty to this unfortunate affair, and to involve-a noble lord and his intended bride in a position of the greatest delicacy. —Morning Post.
