However, if the numbers there that night was any criterion, he had strong hopes that the professor would have better success next season. Professor Poulton then jumped into the water, and pro ceeded to go throUgh some evolutions which excited the most profound astonishment of all present. Among the tricks performed we might mention, that he swain the length of the bath, which is fifty-eight feet, in two strokes. He swam with his hands and feet bound ton- He walked on his hands under water, which Iv very amusin tor was very fine and one of the most astonishi was revolving in the water, with a wonderful elocity.

However, here it is this morning; and I took e. . it up under some excitement, and more expectation of being repaid for the perusal by the wisdom of the istatcsman, and the eloquence of the orator—by the development of means of escape from the false position which the change of government has thrown us into relative to Italian complications—by the unweaving of that plexus of danger, doubt and fear, which the mind of . all Europe is now perplexed with, and suffering under. But alas ! alas ! never was disappointment greater. The half-hour expended in reading the Cobden twaddle and tra s h would have I.).ien better spent, and much more euphoniously, on a Broadwood's Grand. Instead of the statesmanlike views of a man qualified for the Cabinet, we have the worse than i puerility of a second form boy of a charity school. Surely no blacksmith stump-orator ever. drummed suc: - : stuff into " the ears of the groundlings." how the company set it out is a puzzle. But what a humilia tion is the fact, that such a puling nonentity should have been considered eligible for cake. • It has always been a recognised fact, that Mr. R. Cobden was a man of one idea only; and never could stronger proof be given of its accuracy than in the speech before me. Not one brilliant idea, no t one scintillation, broke the duil raml - ding monotony of gene ralities through which he struggled at the overtaxed expense of his hearers. With weeks of preparation for the occasion—with months of foreign travel to enlighten' —with a crisis in the affairs of Europe threateniir; its peace—with all the interesting matter associated with a factious upsetting of the best government since Peers, and of the installation of the worst since Russell's first, (and heaven knows that was without previous parallel !) --a plethora, an absolute ove'rllow of political fullness was expected, that would burst forth into eloquence, that should irradiate, enlighten, instruct, and vindicate the exalted opinion of his overweening admirers.. That he is a sadly over-estimated man—that he has absolutely nothing in him—is now patent to every reader of his Rachili oration; and we may well conceive the blank looks that must have passed through the assembled thousands, that expected an intellectual banquet worthy an occasion laying such numbers under requisition as listeners. And yet this man was considered tit for otlice ' and worthy of a s ca t i n th e C a bi net ! Sh a d es o f Pitt, Fox, and Canning, hide your diminished heads ! Spirits or the great departed, blush at the degradation of the country that gave you birth, and mourn over the humiliation of that arena which even now echoes with the mighty eloquence of your speech, and blazes with the flashing corruseations of your wit ! I shall not take the trouble to analyse or- dwell on the most illogical and unmeaning speech that ever wearied my attention to get through; that must be left to your able pen. There is one point, however, that cannot be passed over without an observation,—he has placed it on record, In accord with Louis Napoleon, he would undo what has been so lately done. for our navy—he would reduce the number of our sbins—Lhe would leave us to the tender mercies of the most un scrupulous, astute, and ambitious individual that ever occupied the throne of a Capulet. And this is the man our Prime Minister delights to honour, and would call to hei Majesty's Councils. Away with such truckling ; it is the twin act of that which could make a John Sadlier a pensioner of office. Noisy demagogues must be silenced at all hazards. If the law cannot catch and muzzle them, a factious government can.

We now know the man; his shallowness is before Its. . 0 TEmPo4A.! 0 Moitis ! 19th August, 1859 - -4 --- INDIA The news from India on the whole is satis factory, particularly as regards the rebel move ment. From the Bombay Gazette we learn that no material alteration has taken place in the relation of the rebels, except such as might reasonably be expected to arise from the operation of natural causes, all tending to an apparently speedy extinction of the rebellion. The paper quoted says:— Intelligence from Onde and the several seats of war in the North-west Provinces, continues to grow less and less. We have•no movements to record, and the armies necessarily cease to supply relatable events. The war might have ended some months ago, or at any rate the rebels would have been driven away from the mountains of Nepaul, where our soldiers have been in pursuit of them during the whole of the hot season, had Jung Bahadoor co-operated with our troops and cut off their retreat to the northern ranges. Vigour there has been none in the efforts of'the Nepaulese to get quit of the muti neers in their own territory ; and the struggle in the mountain ranges of Nepaul has been maintained by our soldiers without any aid from' them in any shape. Between Philebeet and Gurwall the rebels are now snttered, but they are not likely to desmid to the plains at the foot of the Himalayas, as a strong body of police, composed chiefly of Sikhs, is stationed at the points through which Oude is approachable from the hills. They are beset by formidable difficulties on the south, and alarm seems to have driven them frantic. We occasionally hear of some skirmishes with small bodies of insurgents. Burjoro Sing and his brother-in law Chutter, at the head of about NO rebels, were lately in the vicinity of Jhansi ; the whereabouts of the former having been discovered by Catania (adjutant of police), an attempt was made to catch him in the dark, but it failed. A small detachment of the 24th Madras Infantry, and one of military police, horse and foot, under Major Davis, went in .search of the enemy, but after knocking about for some time, on the 19th of June the little force reached Joarum at one o'clock p.m., when the two rebel leaders were eleven miles off across the Dessaum river, close upon the border of the Tehree State. Leaving all the heavy luggage at Alipore, Major Davis made a rapid march at two o'clock, and got up to the attack about five. Overtaken in a dense jungle, the rebels fled in all directions, about ten being killed and fifteen taken prisoners ;.amongst the faodilb•%en,yiii,lelorinniiwaatjlkaoles: lo ß ic u ec r a j ws o ioo r r e ne ' a f foster-brother, t v • o ae t ll r,be, valuable that he, ornaments, tlesv,arse shot ht Davis just after he had fired at Lieutenant Hawth orne a considerable addition to the prize property, session of nPo A lasta.sse assent 3 1 r T a o s f the Parliament,eT. the royal given to an impo r t an t measure introduced by the Poor law Board. Alsins law Board. The ostensible object of the act is to define the payment of debts incurred by boards of guardians of union parishes and sc h oo l di s t r i c t s, b ut it is intended mainly to meet such cases as that of the City of London Union, in which it will be remembered a large number of our City parishes refused to contribute towards the liabilities incurred by the late frauds of Manzini and other defrauding collectors, because they were not the parishes by whom they were employed, and in which they col lected. The act directs that, after its passing, all debts incurred shall be p a id Withi n the 1. l If year in which they have been incurred; but debts incurred prior to its passing may be paid, although extending over a period of two years, and even to six years, with the sanction of the Poor-law Board. The last clause clearly points to the case of the City of London, for it provides that when any debt or liability which shall or may have been incurred shall have been already paid by any parish to the board of guardians of any union, and shall not have been applied for that purpose, any funds which may again be required to be contributed to discharge such debt, claim, or demand shall be levied on each parish in the union in proportion to the rateable value of each such parish, 10 to 1 a, THE LATE TROTTIN roa : Having be( h regard to the 1 reports Cambria ye to request you lieious MATCH AT CA entraged, - I trclict the match did not come off, be got on, &e."
