The revolutions, which have never ceased to disturb Venezuela from the time that Leocadio Guzman excited the populace against the men of worth, continued presenting an alternation of triumphs and' defeats, which leave in suspense the fate of society. The -brothers Monagas, absolute governors of Venezuela; have • succeeded in re ducing their adversaries - in. Valencia and in the valleys of Aragua; -still -the -insurgents maintained themselves in Gliniana and in the island of Mar aareta their defeats were attiibuted to a want of unanimity, which has - neutralized their efforts from the beginning. From their not working in accord, the heads of a movement which appears a lawful one have in the most deplorable manner compromised the success of the good cause of the conservative party,-since the government of Vene zuela not only wants credit and moral power in the interior, but it also maintains its connection with foreign . nations in the worst condition. The whole diplomatic corps has had to protest against its viblences and arbitrarities. But in Venezuela, as else Where, timidity and indicision are accus tomed to attend on the good cause, while the bad cause has no scrupl . e in availing itself of brute force, and in recurring.to the attempts that occur red in 1848, when General President Monagas directed a horde of assassins against Congress.

QUATEMALA The dates froM Guatemala are to the 22nd July.

General Garcia Granados, who commanded in the action, was promoted to the rank of brigadet or infantry. Notwithstanding these triumphs,.G.eneral Carrera had . resolved to order the evacuation of the Hondurian territory, and even to concentrate his troops towards Guate mala, contenting himself with leaving a battalion in the department of Chiquimala. CALIFORNIA SUMMARY 0: A. FORTNIGHT'S NEWS. (From the San Francisco .Alta California, Sept. 1.) Since the date of our last semi-monthly notice of the market, every 'department of trade has exhibited an extraordinary degree of languor and inactivity. `This' has been owing to the same . cause to whicfi we then had occasion to advert, viz., the . absenee of any demand of consequence from the interior, which would enable our jobbers. to rid ; themselves of their stocks, and .to re enter the market as purchasers. While, however, com mercial affairs are suffering a temporary depression, consequent upon over trading, the other great in terests of our state are in the main prosperous and flourishing. The dry season does not now oppose that barrier to the miner's success which it has done heretofore, by numerous individual and corn- bined enterprises, many parts of the auriferous region have a constant supply of water, and the production of gold goes on in those localties with out cessation. Every county in the state is a scene of political discussion and excitement. The election will take place, on the 7th prox., and until that event shall have transpired, the public mind will be to a great extent occupied by political matters. The Indian outbreaks in the Rogue river valley, in the North are becoming serious and threatening. It is not improbable that general hostilies will be the consequence in that part of the state and the southern part of Oregon. The existing troubles, like others that have arisen from time to time in other Sections of the state, most probably had their origin in the outrages which some of the more reck less and unprincipled of the whole population take so much pleasure- in inflicting upon the weak and defenceless, whether civilised or savage. The peaceful and industrious citizens have now to bear the vindictive hostility of the savages, who recog nise no distinction between friend or foe among the " pale faces." We fear that. a bloody and pro tracted war will ensue, the frontier citizens defend ing.their lives and their homes, while the unprin cipled wretches who kindled the flame are in safety, in the less exposed districts. The murderers and thieves who have so long in fested the State have been faring somewhat badly of late. A number of them have been brought to summary account, and-forfeited their lives for their crimes. Among them, Vorgara, who murdered Mr. Porter, near Lee Angeles, some weeks since, was lately killed' at the military camp - on the Colo rado. _ _ A rendezvous of villains, of all grades and cha ters, was recently discovered in the sink of the Humboldt ,River, east of the Sierra Nevada. A murderer was traced by a party from Calaveras county, to the rendezvous, where about one hun dred and fifty of the outlaws were discovered. A volunteer force will probably go out to dislodge the villains. HE WEST INDIES By way of New York we have advices from Ja maica to-the 12th ult- These advices say:-- ...a• " Our new Governor, Sir Henry Barkli, is hourly expected - to arrive in the man-of-war steamer Brisk.

(SECOND NOTICE.) HERE we must go back a little in the chain of incidents for the benefit of the reader. After Mademoiselle de Blois had, at the urgent solicitation of the Chevalier, her father, yielded up possession of herself to the aristocrat of fallen fortunes, who, at the time, scraped up some sort of a livelihood by " fiddling" in London, Thomas, despairing and re sentful, embarks for India, to try his fortune on the field of glory ! Poor fellow ! how it must have made him subside into his military boots, to find himself outdone in his amour by the poor, old French fiddler ! He, a son of Mars ! not to be perthitted to marry his dear "Leonore off-hand, at the little Catholic chapel at Woolwich, and then to " go out to India together, and be happy ever after !" What a blissful dream :from which there was, like as in many other cases, a sorrowful awakening He goes to India, however, alone—and, as young gentlemen too often do, grows out of his fury and despair, and forgets his fiancee, from whom, he had sworn; that nothing but death should part him. From India he frequently corresponds with his father, always directing his letters to the city, for his name was never :so . much as mentioned at Clapham, in consequence .of his stepmother's resentment: These letters comforted the dear old man so, that in return he forwards his son " liberal private remittances," until he has need for no more. At last the poor soul goes to..his -rest, and the "Her mitage" loses its chic fest prop, while the churchyard at Clapham obtains - a .tena2t. Young Thomas was so loved by his father:that, had it not been for the resentment of his stepmother, he would have been left a fortune. At least, such was the old man's desire, had not the terror of his wife, 'Sophia Alethea, been so much before his eyes. Meanwhile, Thomas obtains high military dignity in India, and marries a pretty widow, one Emma Honeyman, relict of the late detestable Captain Casey. He soon becomes a father, and gets his boy christened Clive Newcome, His wife, poor thing ! does not long partake of connubial blessedness, but goes " From sunshine to the sunless land," and Clive is left to the sole charge of the Lieut.- Colonel, who at once consigns him to a kind aunt, Martha Honeyman,• • Here is the letter she sends to India upon receipt of her little nephew : " With the most heartfelt joy, my dear Major, 1 take up my pen to announce to you the happy arrival of the Ram Chunder, and the dearest and handsomest little boy, who, I am sure, ever came from India. Little Clive is in perfect health. He speaks English wonderfully well. He cried when he parted from Mr. Sneid, the supercargo, Who most kindly brought him from Southampton in a post chaise, but these tears in childhood, are of very brief duration. The voyage, Mr. Sneid states, was most favorable, occupying only four months and eleven days. How different from that more lengthened and dangerous passage of eight months, and almost perpetual sickness, in which my poor dear sister Emma went to Bengal, to become the wife of the best of husbands, and the mother of the dearest of little boys, and to enjoy these inestimable blessings for so brief an interval ! She has quitted this wicked and wretched world, for one where all is peace. The misery and ill-treatment which she endured from Captain Casey, her first odious husband, were, I am sure, amply repaid, my dear Colonel, by your subsequent affection. If the 'most sumptuous dress which, London or even Paris, could 'supply, jewellery the most costly, and ele gant lace, and everything lovely and fashionable could con tent a woman, these, I am sure, during the last four years of her life, the poor . girl had. Of what avail are they when this scene of vanity is closed. " You may be sure that the most liberal sum which you have placed to my credit with the Messrs. Hobson and Co. shall be faithfully expended on my dear little charge. Mrs. Newcome can scarcely be called his grandmamma, I sup pose ; and I dare say her methodistical ladyship will not care to see the daughters and grandson of a Clergyman of the Church of England ! My brother Charles took leave to wait upon her when he presented your last most generous bill at the bank. She received him most rudely, and said a fool and his money are soon parted ; and when Charles said, Madam, I am the brother of the late Mrs. Major Newcome,' ' Sir,' says she, ' I judge nobody : but from all accounts, you are the brother of a very vain, idle, thoughtless, extra vagant woman ; and Thomas Newsome was as foolish about his wife as about his money.' Of course, unless Mrs. N. writes to invite dear Clive, I shall not think of sending him to Clapham. " Itis such hot weather that I cannot wear the beautiful shawl you have sent me, and shall keep it in lavender till next winter ! My brother who thanks you for your continu ous bounty, will write next month, and report progress as to his dear pupil. Clive will add a postscript of Ins own, and I am, my dear Major, with a thousand thanks for your kindness to me, your grateful and affectionate, " MARTHA. LLONEYMAN." • Here follows the postscript : " In a round hand and on lines ruled with pencil : " Dearest Papa iam very well i hope you are Very Well. Mr. Sneed brought me in a postchaise i like Mr. Sneed very much. i like Aunt Martha i like Hannah. There are no ships here i am your affectionate son Clive Newcome." ' Clevey'a aunt has an unfortunate and importu nate brother, a Clergyman of the Anglican Church, who is ever and always neck-deep in difficulties andlbrimful of speculations ; quite an Esthetic in his way. He has written poems, sermons, and literary refuse of every sort. At all events he is now determined to succeed in life. The elegant and commodious chapel, known as Lady Whittlesea's Denmark-street, Mayfair, being for sale, he deter mines upon venturing his all' upon it ; and hence writes to the Colonel to send him the needful, in order to complete his plans. The letter is very racy—and quite as suggestive. The reader will thank us for transcribing at least a portion of it "MY DEAR COLONEL,—Did I not know the generosity of your heart, and the bountiful means which Heaven has put at your disposal in order to gratify that noble dis position ; were I not certain that the small sum I required, will permanently place me beyond the reach of the difficulties of life, and will infallibly be repaid before six months are over, believe me I never would have ventured upon that bold step which our friendship (carried on epistolarily as it has been), our relationship, and your admirable disposition, have induced me to venture to take. " That elegant and commodious chapel, known as Lady Whittlesea's, Denmark-street, May Fair, being for sale, I have determined on venturing my all in its acquisition, and in laying, as I hope, the foundation of a competence for my self and excellent sister. What is a lodging-house at Brighton but an uncertain maintenance ? The mariner on the sea before those cliffs is no more sure of wind and wave, or of fish to his laborious net, than the Brighton house- owner (bred in affluence, she may have been, and used to un remitting plenty) to the support of the casual traveller who visit the eity.ti: On one day they come in shoals, it is true, but where arc they on the next ? For many months my poor sister's first floor was a desert, until occupied by your noble little boy, my nephew and pupil. Clive is everything that a father's, an uncle's (who loves him as a father), a pastor's, a teacher's affections could desire. He is not one of those premature geniuses whose much vaunted infantine talents disappear along with adolescence ; he is not, I frankly own, more advanced in his classical and mathemati cal studies than some children even younger than himself, but he has acquired the rudiments of health ; he has laid in a store of honesty and good humour, which are not less likely to advance him in life than mere science and language, than the as in prcesenti,.or the pons asinorum. " But I forgot, in thinking of my dear little friend and pupil, that the subject of this letter—namely, the acquisition of the proprietary chapel to which I have alluded, and the hopes, nay, certainty of a fortune, if aught below is certain, which that acquisition hold out. What is a curacy but a synonym of starvation ? If we accuse the Eremites of old of wasting their lives in unprofitable wildernesses, what shall we say to many a hermit_ of Protestant; and , so-called civi- vilised times, who hides his head in a solitude in Yorkshire, and buries his probably fine talents in a Lincolnshire fen ? Have I genius ? Am I blessed with gifts of eloquence to thrill and soothe, to arouse the sluggish, to terrify the sin ful, to cheer and convince the timid, to lead the bhnd.grop ing in darkness, and to trample the audacious sceptic m the dust ? My own conscience, besides a hundred testimonials from places of popular, most popular worship, from revered prelates, from distinguished clergy, toll me I have these gifts. A voice within me cries, Go forth, Charles Honey man, fight the - good fight;; wipe the tears of the repentant sinners ; sing of hope to the agonized criminal; whisper courage, brother,. courage, at the ghastly death-bed, and m strike down the fidel with the lance of evidence and the shield of reason !' .. In a pecuniary point of view I am con fident, nay the calculations may be established as irresistibly as an algebraic equation, that I can realise, as incumbent of Lady Whittlesea's chapel, the sum of not less than one thou sand pounds per annum. Such a sum, with economy (and without it what sum were sufficient ?) will enable me to pro vide amply for my wants, to discharge my obligations to you, to my sister, and some other creditors, very, very un like you, and to place Miss Honeyman in a home more worthy of her than that which she now occupies, only to vacate it at the beck of every passing stranger. Then, after stating the disapprobation of his sister, and requesting that young Clive might be transferred from her petticoat government to that of his own, with the accustomed palaver in such cases made and provided, he assures the Colonel that every regard shall be paid to the studies, the conduct, and even the highest welfare of the young * The Newcomes ; Memoirs of a most Respectable Family.

The same excitement that has so long prevailed still exists, and the cry for war against the invaders of the Ottoman territory is unanimous. The Sophtas, or students, the Hadjis, the professors, and the Ulemas, are still exerting themselves to keep up the enthusiasm against the Russians, but which has no need of such a stimulus. ST.

THE REVENUE: (From the Observer.) The revenue returns for the quarter will be made up to morrow night (Monday), the 10th of October, in the usual Tabular form, and published on Tuesday morning. Until the actual figures are added up to the latest day, it'is, of course, impossible to be precise in the comparlion of the Year and Quarter just ended, with the corresponding period of 1852. .Enough, however, is already known to enable us to state that the result of the comparison will be in every respect eminently satisfactory. In spite of large reductions—or, as it would now althost seem, in consequence of these reductions—all those sources of Revenue in particular, that are moved . by the springs of industry and trade, seem to become more and more elastic and enlarged by every successive removal of restrictions. It is precisely in those Departments of the Publie Revenue, where the largest reductions have been made, that the greatest increase is to be found. Even the abolition of the whole items of *taxation, such as the Soap Tax—seems to be met with an increased consumption of other exciseable articles on the part of the population most affected 'by the repeal, who are thus enabled to increase their comfort in every way, and still to contribute their due share to the public burdens. The continuous success of the impreved commercial policy of late years is the best test of its wisdom, and the highest encouragement to proceed further boldly on the same path. The Revenue for the year ending this 10th of October will exhibit a 'considerable increase over the year ending 10th of October, 1852. This improvement in the year will show_ a large increase upon the sum total—whilst almost every particular item of taxation will contribute its share to the general result. The Income of the Quarter, too, notwithstanding the reduc tions which have been in full force during the last three months, will exhibit an increase upon the'corresponding Quarter of last year. The increase, if not so large as the somewhat exaggerated statements that have been prematurely put forth in unauthorised quarters, is certainly not to be overlooked. It will be all the more gratifying, as atone time a contrary result was looked upon as the natural effect of the very large reduc tions of the last session. Both on the year and on the quarter the bulk of the increase will be found to proceed from the departments of the Customs and the Excise. There will be a small—probably a merely nominal Decrease in the Assessed Taxes ; but if so, it will be owing rather to the accidental state of the collection than to other causes. Some old stamp duties repealed, and waiting fur the new reductions, to come into operation to-morrow, have no doubt lessened the receipts from that source in the last quarter. The total abolition of the Soap Duties, which produced £12,000 a year, the repeal of the Advertisement Duty upon Newspapers, the reduction upon Posting and Carriage Duties and other items, have to be taken into account, iff estimating the receipts of the Inland . Revenue Department. In the teeth of these losses it is most gratifying to see the Excise exhibit a decided increase. Nothing can more clearly demonstrate the satisfac factory condition of trade, and the enjoyment of comforts', and •• even luxuries, by the great bulk of the. industrious population. • The increase in the Customs, too, is most satisfactory, when we take into account the numerous reductions made in the very last Session alone, in addition to those that were made before, during the last ten or dozen years. The next Session will probably see the smaller items, that still remain, struck off altogether. The Revenue has not suffered in anything like the estimated amount, by the reductions in the Tea and Sugar Duties, which have given such general relief. Some portion of the Quarter's Increase, to be sure, may be attribu ted to the increased importation of Grain, which assists the Customs' Revenue to some extent, even at the nominal im post of Is. per quarter. Upon the whole it may be confidently stated, that all branches of the Revenne are understood to be in a most prOsperous condition; and that on a Balance of receipt and expenditure, a very considerable surplus will remain, in spite of all reductions of taxation, and in the face of the not inconsiderable, but essential, additions made to our expenditure for the necessary purpose of perfecting our National Defences. THE CLIPPER-SHIP GUIDING STAR PUT ON FOR AMERICA.—This beautiful clipper, purchased a few weeks aoo by Messrs. Miller and Thompson, for the " Golden Lme" of Australian Packets, has in consequence of the con temporary lull in the commerce with that quarter of the World, been put on to make one trip to New Y( rk with goods and passengers. Her beautiful model and fittings have been frequently alluded to, and we have no doubt she will go out " a full ship." Should she be at all favoured with fair winds, we feel assured her voyage will aston ish even the go-ahead natives of the United States: Ind, at any me Yankees rate, her presence at New York will convince that ' Britishers can also build clippers to " whip creation twig. Then he concludes, coming down fearfully from his high pedestal:— " I have given, then, to a friend, the Rev. Marcus Fla ther, a draft for two hundred and fifty pounds sterling, drawn upon you at your - agent's in Calcutta, which sum will go in liquidation of dear Clive's first year's board with me, or, upon my woi d of honour as a gentleman and clergyman, shall be paid back at three months after sight, if you will draw upon me. As I never, no, were it my last penny in the world, would dishonour your draft,—l implore you, my dear Colonel, not to refuse mine. My credit in this city, where credit is everything, and the awful future so little thought of, my engagements to Mr. Flather, my own pros pects in life, and the comforts of my dear -sister's declining years all—all depend upon this bold, this eventful measure. My ruin, or my earthly happiness lie entirely in your hands. Can I doubt which way your ldnd heart will lead you, and that you will come to the aid of your affectionate brother-in law, CHARLES HONEYMAN." Miss Martha Honeyman, however, will not suffer her brother to take sole charge of young Clive. 0, no ! she is too much of a woman for that. "The poor boy," she says, " is very affectionate, and al ways building castles in the air, and of having Clive to live with him in London; now this mat be, and I won't hear qf it. Charles is too kind to be a school-master, and Master Clive laughs at him. It must be mentioned here that amongst the host Of things the unfortunate Mr. Honeyman tried his hand at that of a schoolmaster had not been omitted. - He bought a school ; paid the purchase money—at least his sister did for him—but it turned out badly, and at the end of the first half year, had but " two woolly-headed poor little mulattos, whose father was in gaol, in St. Kitts." Clive Newcome, instead of being given over to the good keeping and wise governing of the reverend disciple of the ferula, is committed to the charge of -Dr. Timpany, who keeps a great school at Marine parade. The Doctor evidently, whatever may be his scholastic attainments and skill as a pedagogue, bore no character for leniency as a disciplinarian. " My father," observes Miss Martha, "always said it was the best place for boys, and I have a brother to whom my poor mother spared the rod, and who, I fear, has turned out but a spoilt child." Lieutenant-Colonel Newcome is surprised one morning with the following startling letter from his brother : "My Drdin BROTHER— I hasten to inform you of a ca lamity which, though it might be looked for in the course of nature, has occasioned deep grief, not only in our family, but in this city. This morning:, at half-past four o'clock, our beloved mid respected mother, Sophia Alethea New come, expired, at the advanced age of eighty-three years. On the night of Tuesday—Wednesday, the 12th-13th, having been engaged reading and writing in her library until a late hour, and having dismissed the servants, whom she never would allow to sit up for her, as well as my brother and his wife, who always are in the habit of retiring early. Mrs. Newcombe extinguished the lamps, took a bed chamber candle to return to her room, and must have fallen on the landing, where she was discovered by the maid, sitting with her head residing against the balustrades, and en deavouring to staunch a wound in her forehead, which was bleeding profusely, having struck in a fall against the stone step of the stairs. " When Mrs. Newcome was found she was speechless, but still sensible, and medical aid being sent for, she was carried to bed. Mr. Newcome mid Lady Anne, both hurried to her apartment, and she knew them, and took the hands of each, but paralysis had probably ensued in consequence of the shock of the fall; nor was her voice ever heard, except in inarticulate moanings, since the hour of the previous even ing, when she gave her blessing, and bade them good night. Thus perished this good and excellent woman, the truest Christian, the most charitable friend to the poor and need ful, the head of this great house of business, the best and most affectionate of mothers. " The contents of her will have long been known to us, and that document was dated one month after our lamented father's death. Mr. Thomas Newcombe's property being divided equally amongst his three sons, the property of his second wife naturally devolves upon his own issue, my bro ther Brian and myself. There are very heavy legacies to servants and to charitable and religious institutions , of which, in life, she was the munificent patroness ; and I regret my dear brother, that no memorial to you should have been left by my mother, because she often spoke of you latterly in terms of affection, and on the very day on which she died, commenced a letter to your little boy, which was left un finished on the library table. My brother said that on that same day, at breakfast, she pointed to a volume of Orme's Ilindostan, the book she said, which set poor dear Tom wild to go to India. I know you will be pleased to hear of the proofs of returning good-will and affection, in one who often spoke latterly of her early regard for you. • I have no more time under the weight of business which this present affliction entails. than to say that I am, yours, dear brother, very sincerely, " A. NEwcoMBE'• The gallant Lieutenant-Colonel, after a lapse of time, comes back to England hale and hearty, and with evident disposition to enjoy himself, and make life as smooth and pleasant as possible. We shall now introduce our readers to the " Cave of Harmony," and exhibit to them the renowned warrior and his son Clive, cutting rare capers. Mr. Arthur Pendennis, Jones, of Trinity, King, of Corpus, and a few other gees du bon, after quitting the theatre, alight at the cave kept by " the cele brated Hoskins." "We enjoyed such intimacy with Mr. Hoskins that he never failed to greet us with a nod ; and John the waiter made room for us near the president of the convivial meeting. We knew three admirable glee-singers, and many a time they partook of brandy-and-water at our expense. One of us gave his call dinner at Hoskins's, and a merry time we had of it. Where are you, 0 Hoskins, bird of the night ? Do you warble your songs by Acheron, or troll your choruses by the banks of black Avernus. " There came into the cave a gentleman with a lean brown face and long brown mustachois:dressed in very loose clothes, and evidently a stranger in the place. At least he had not visited it for a long time. He was pointing out changes to a lad who was in his company ; and, calling for sherry-and water, he listened to the music, and twirled his mustachios with great enthusiasm. " At the very first glimpse of me the boy jumped up from the table, bounded across the room, ran to me with his hands out, and blushing said, Don't you know me ?' "It was little Newcome, my schoolfellow, whom I had not seen for six years ; grown a fine tall young stripling now, with the same bright blue eyes which I remembered when he was quite a little boy. " "What the deuce brings you here ?' said I. "He laughed and looked roguish. 'My father—that's my father—would come. He's just come back from India. He says all the wits used to come here—Mr. Sheridan, Captain Morris, Colonel Hanger, Professor Person. I told him your name, and that you used to be very kind to me when I first went to Smithfield. I've left now ; I'm to have a private tutor. I say I've got such a jolly poney. It's better fun than old Smiffie. " Here the whiskered gentleman, Neweome's father, point ing to a waiter to follow him with his glass of sherry-and water, strode across the room, twirling his mustachios, and came up to the table where we sate, making a salutation with his hat in a very stately and polite manner, so that Hoskins himself was, as it were, obliged to bow ; the glee singers murmured among themselves (their eyes rolling over their glasses towards one another, as they sucked brandy and water,) . and that mischievous little wag, little Nadab, the improvisatore, (who had just come in,) began to mimick him, feeling his imaginary whiskers, after the manner of the stranger, and flapping about his pocket handkerchief in the most ludicrous manner. Hoskins checked this ribaldry by sternly looking towards Nadab, and at the same time called upon the gents to give their orders, the waiter being in the room, and Mr, Bellew about to sing a song. " Newcome's father came up and het out his hand to me, I dare say I blushed, for I had been comparing him to the admirable Harley in the Critic, and christened him Don Fe rolo Whiskerandos. "He spoke in a voice exceedingly soft and pleasant, and with a cordiality so simple and sincere, that my laughter shrank away ashamed, and gave place to a feeling much more respectful and friendly. In youth, you see, one is touched by kindness. A man of the world may, of course, be grateful or not, as he chooses. "' I have heard of your kindness, sir,' says he, 'to my boy. And whoever is kind to him is kind to me. Will you allow me to sit down by . you ? and may I beg you to try my cheroots ?' We were friends in a minute—young Newcome snuggling by my side, his father opposite, to whom, after a minute or two of conversation, I presented my three college friends. . " You have come here, gentlemen, to see the wits,' says the Colonel. ' Are there any celebrated persons in the room ? I have been five-and-thirty years from home, and want to see all that is to be seen.' " King of Corpus (who was an incorrigible wag) was on the point of pulling some dreadful long bow, and pointing out a half dozen of people in the room, as R. and 11, and L., Sce., the most celebrated wits of that day ; but I cut King's skins under the table, and got the fellow to hold his tongue. " Maxima debetur pueris,' says Jones (a fellow of very kind feeling, who has gone into the Church since,) and writing on his card to Hoskins hinted to him that a boy was in the room, and a gentleman, who was quite a greenhorn ; hence that the songs had better be carefully selected. " And so they were. A lady' . s school might have come in, and but for the smell of the cigars and brandy-and-water, have taken no harm by what happened.' Why should it not always be s? ? If there are any Caves of Harmony now, I warrant messieurs the landlords, their interests would be better consulted by keeping their singers within bounds. The very greatest scamps like pretty songs, and are melted by them : so are honest people." The greatest possible amusement follows. Nadab is inimitable in his surprising feat of improvisation, and the Colonel laughs downright, and joins in th 4 chorus " Ritol-de-rol, ritol-de-rol-decay,' even when the shafts of wit are levelled at himself, such as— '' A military Tent I see, and, while his face-I scan, I think you'll all agree with me, he came from Hindostan. And by his side sits, laughing free, a youth with curly head; I think you'll all agree with me, that he was best in bed. Ritol-d, &c The Colonel finally sings "Wapping Old Stairs," subscribes to Nadab's book of poems, and all goes on harmoniously, for a while, till either from too much brandy-and-water, or the introduction of Cap tain Costigan, matters take a different turn, and destroy—at all events as far as the harmony is con cerned—the famous cave of the renowned Hoskins! We have now given sufficient extracts to sharpen the longing of our readers—we recommend them to lose no time in buying the first number. We cannot close without thanking Mr. Arthur Pendell. , ms for the excellent treat he has given us—assuring him that never did hungry Wight long for a dinner with more avidity than we anticipate• the coming number of The Newconzes. IIZELAIVD, (FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) DUBLIN, SATURDAY EVENING THE RECENT RAILWAY ACCIDENT. The excitement consequent on this fearful occureuce has continued to increase, and people are very full of their stric tures on the Railway Company. Mr. Taylor the Secretary, has written a letter to the daily papers, in order to allay the public uncertainty, by an authorised publication of the names of those killed or severely injured. The former are identical with the list before furnished to 7011, with the ex ception of two names; they are, Mrs. Smith, and the lady in whose pocket the prayer-book with the name of lames in it was found. She is the wife of a mill-owner in Mal low, Co. Cork. The other is the case of a gentleman who was only indentified :yesterday, and who is a Mr. Jesse Hale. This unfortunate man was so dreafifullv mutilated, that intim ate friends of his (amongst whom was the coroner himself) who were present at the inquest did not recognise him ; and it was only by reference to papers in his possession that his identity was established. lie had left Tailing by thd train, and was killed almost within sight of his own door. Another gentleman who suffered death in the same terrible manlier, Mr. Jelly, has been most deeply regretted. He was well known, and very popular in the Queen's County, and his re mains were met at the station at Marybro, (whither they were conveyed on Thursday), by over 500 people. He is no doubt well known in 'the Liverpool Cotton as he was a frequent attendant there. The fate of Mr and Mrs. M'Sweeny was also of the most melancholy nature. They were accompanied by their three. chil dren, who were saved, but the sight of the little creatures, thus made orphans, in such an awful manner, was one of the most heart-rending sights on the occasion. One of them (a boy of eight years old) lies at Stevens's ho s pit a l w ith b o th his legs fractured, but he is progressing fav oura bly. Th e following persons are also at the hospital seriously injured —Ellen Farell, EmMa Pack, Esther Coffey, and Sarah Shelford. Two lathes also lie at Straffan, considerably in jured :—Mrs. Latham, Blacker, and Mrs. Croker, Barring ton. Their escape from actual death was wonderful, the former lady being in the coupe next the advancing train, and therefore nearest the 'danger, and the other in the next compartment. Mrs. Blackes's two daughters were along with her, and miraculously escaped without injury: Mr. Neville, county surveyor of Louth, escaped with a fracture of the leg, by throwing himself lengthwise on the scat, everybody in the carriage with him being killed. An in quest was about to be held yesterday, on the body of Joseph Isherwood, who expired in the . Hospital, but was adjourned till the conclusion of the proceedings at Straffdan, which have also been adjourned until Monday, without anything being yet done, in consequence of its h av i ng b een di scover ed that one of the jurors sworn was a minor. Actions will be commenced against the Railway Company by the relatives of nearly all the deceased, and from the high position of many of them, it is thought that over £lOO,OOO will not pay the damage. Market SA IMAM PROCEEDINGS. —The announcement made in the Northern Daily Times of Friday, of a case of cholera in Liverpool, has caused come alarm here. The exertions of those entrusted with the sanitary management of the county, has been unremitting in guarding against the dreadful plague, and, up to the present, have been attended with success. Nevertheless reports are current of solitary cases of Asiatic cholera occurring here and there through the provinces, but it is likely that other diseases may have been mistaken for it._ Diarrohre appears to be very prevalent. THE ExiiisiiioN.—The numbers of the visitors have fallen off some thousands within the last few days, and an announcement appears in to-day's papers, that on Monday the admission price will be reduced to sixpence. The fatal railway accident will, it is thought, prevent the influx of many country visitors. Great exertions are made to give more effect to the Dargan testimonial monument, but there is no sign of the amount being reached which was originally expected, BALLINASLOE Run.—The Cattle Fair commenced yester day. There was a large attendance of buyers from the Midland Counties, and business was pretty brisk. The demand for good quality stock of every description was very marked, and at an advance of from 30s. to 40s. a-head in last year's prices. The viceregal party left Ballinasloe yesterday, and arrived in town same evening. Ltsnunw azarios.—The Seneschal has issued a procla mation fixing the election for Lisburn on Tuesday next, the 11th instant. THE CONFERENCE—" The Irish Party" have a conftider able space in to day's Freeman, allotted to their concluding proceedings. At their last meeting, ex-sheriff Swift occu pied the chair, and matters began by an attack on the mem bers for Tipperary, Messrs. F. Scully and James Sadlier, whose names have: been abused long ago. These two poor gentlemen were undefended, and accordingly were con demned to an ex-parliamentary limbo hereafter. The at tack on the members of Clare, Sir John Fitzgerald, and Mr. C. O'Brien, were then renewed, amid the vain protes tations of Fulton Quade. Resolutions favourable to aßeli gious Equality" were passed, and the proceedings were wound up by a lecture from Mr. Lucas, on Irish manufac ture, and the Beauties of Belgian Government. FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.-011 Friday an inquest was held at the Odd Fellows's Arms, Abertillery, a hamlet on the line of the Western Valleys Bailway, on the body of James Anstice, one of the engine drivers on the line, who met with a frightful death, by an accident which occurred near Ahertillery a day or two previously. In turning a curve near Abertillerr the engine ran off the line, dragging the tender after it, and ran into a lot of tracks on a siding, smashing them all to pieces. It then proceeded a distance of 80 yards along the line, and in its progress the train broke up some sleepers, and the sudden jerk in crossing them threw the deceased man Anstice off. His head was literally cut in two, and he was left a spectacle shock ing to contemplate. The stoker and breaksman, who were on the tender, succeeded in holding on, but their escape was truly marvellous. The jury, after a patient and careful investigation, returned a verdict—" That the deceased came by his, death through furiously driving a railway engine." ANOTHER CONSIGNMENT OF COTTON TO MANCHESTER' On Friday morning, Mr. Fleming, secretary of the Com mercial Association, received a letter from the East India House, intimating that the Directors of the Company had instructed their agent at Liverpool, Mr. Rathbone, to for ward to him at Manchester 299 bales and 8 half-bales of cotton, received from Bombay, per the Marian Moore, for disposal. The communication thus received contained a re quest that Mr. Fleming would furnish to the Court of Direc tors an account of the observations which the Commercial Association might be desirous of offering in regard to the consignment. The following is a descriptive list of the 299 bales, and 8 half bales shipped on board the Marion-Moore, James Tweedie, commander :—From Dharwar collectorate, 246 bales; from Belgaum collectorate, 26 bales and two half bales ; also 8 whole and 6 half bales ; 15 whole bales from the Ahmedabad collectorate, 4 whole bales. The bales from Dharwar (New Orleans cotton) is the produce of 1851-2 ; from Belgaum (New Orleans), and made up from 86 original packages), the produce of 1851-2 ; do. from Belgaum (New Orleans, and made up from 34 original packages), the pro duce of 1851-2 ; some bales of Belgaum native cotton, made up from 48 original packages, the produce of 1851-2 ; the bales of Ahmedabad (New Orleans), ginned cotton, are made up from four orginal bales, received from that quarter.
