CONTEMPORARY PRESS. LORD STANLEY'S IRISH REGISTRATION BILL (From the Morning Herald of Tuesday.) Lord Stanley intimated, last night, his intention to abandon his Irish Rezistration Bill. Ministers may, e of place and pay for therefore, deem themselves secu d Stanley stated that the very pe opposition to which his bill had m no hope of being able to carry session, even through the House Ten divisions had taken place on that And on five of these divisions the whole power of • had been exerted to secure its defeat. occasion only had ministers been successful : Ames had they been defeated. To the present oc _mts of office, however, defeats on such points seem be of the lightest possible moment. After solemn Ind repeated affirmations by considerable majorities, of the principle of the liish Registration Bill, ministers had continued to offer the most uniring opposition to Out of forty-six clauses, liar char a subjected, left it, during the present mmon: Governmen progress of the measure ,-,4,er nine night's discussion) been unposed of . and of the three clauses in question one )osti. Any further attempt to proceed with bill during the present session could only tend to obstruct the progress of important public business. In the course of his observations Lord Stanley re marked, that the history of his Irish Registration Bill ' , ad scarcely a parallel. Never before, perhaps, had hundred gentlemen been found to give their at lc'e night after night, and week after week, in to support a measure introduced by a private in -11, and opposed by the whole power of Govern •ee hay sunopposet Len dar krul thai measure, although le now withdrew it, had not proved unprolific of benefit. Public atten tion had been directed to the evils of the Irish regis tration system. Public opinion demanded such a mea sure as he had submitted to the consideration of the d such a measure he should again bring for ward at a period of the next session so early as should enable him to surmount all the obstacles which the 3.1 of his antagonists might place in its way. John Russell disclaimed for himself and his ver had recourse to anything but system of. opposition" to the Irish 1. , fle justified O'Connell, more espe- associate raving e cially, for moving an instruction to the committee to define the Irish franchise; and retorted on Lord Stan ley, that his conservative supporters, more especially the four learned gentlemen around him, who spoke at t length on O'Connell's motion, had approved themselves the real obstructors of the progress of the Irish Registration Bill. In conclusion, Lord John de 1, that he should always oppose any bill, that un t of purifying the Irish registries, should tend to limit the Irish franchise. It had been his fate le share in the long-protracted discussions on the Reform Bill ; and he should not shrink from discussions even more protracted, rather than abandon any of the principles which that Reform Bill contained. This latter part of his theme Lord John handled at pomposity of manner which distinguishes all empts to be peculiarly impressive. He is, in singularly• feeble personage—remarkably ob tterly devoid of eloquence—and, at times, ddicted to mouthing. He had reason, it is true, last night, to indulge in a fit of self-complacency.

BANKING TO THE PEOPLE OF GREAT BRITAIN. Edinburgh, 29th June, 1840 The great use of banking as we now understand the term, is, either to economise capital generally, by bringing the sur plus in the hands of one man, into known places of deposit, where the use of it may be obtained by others, upon terms that are known ; or to economise the use of BULLION, in carrying on transactions, by issuing BANK NOTES, as they are termed, or obligations by banks, in place of the usual gold and silver tokens. For example :—THE CIRCULATION of the Bank of England, (as its notes in the hands of the public are termed, amounted at 23d instant, to.. Its bullion, to 4,434,000 12,437,000 The amount of bullion saved in the circulation, by means of the Bank of England, is, Effecting a saving to the State annually, in inte rest alone, equal to £621,850 And if the expense of coining, tear and wear, and loss are included, equal at least to 1,243,700 The circulation of other banks is stated (though I think erroneously) from £11,000,000 to £12,000,000 And deducting for bul lion in a like ratio with the bank of Eng land 3,200,000 They save in bullion And in tear and wear and 1055.... 880,000 The total circulation in paper would thus be 21,237,000 (Being less, by this account, than the circulation of the Bank of England alone used to be.) And the annual saving to the country £2,123,700 This last, if greater, (and it certainly is greater,) may seem little in the eyes of a minister accustomed only to look at figures: but-itis equal to a sixth part of the whole profits on cotton goods exported, and employing 12,000 citizens ; and it is equal to a third of the profits realised; and consequently is in reality a saving of great importance. But the great benetit arising from this operation, is not in the annual saving, but in the actual total s aving of non-pur chased bullion, exceeding, even by the usual computation, £21,237,000 ;—in keeping down the price consequently, by that amount less required ; in giving to the industry of the country that facility and elasticity that nothing else could give it; and lastly, in preventing the dealers in bullion from constantly scourging the country, ad libitum, by making a trade. of the mere instruments of trade. These are very important circumstances ; and these are what give banking, as it is termed, or the saving of capital and bullion, its great value. It exceedingly simplifies the view of this matter, to know, that all we have to think off, in regulating the circulation of banks, (that is the substitution of paper for bullion,) is— First—To make the circulation of banks SAFE—and Second—To keep it from becoming EXCESSIVE. In thinking of a sound paper circulation, we have no more to do with the par of exchanges, as it has been termed, than we have to do with the par of the tides. Money will flow out of a rich country into a poor one, and goods, the result of labour, to flows out of a poor country into a rich; and this may be aided or averted by regulations in trade—as the flow ing of water may be aided or averted by suitable regulations. But countries are only rich or poor in circulation, as indivi duals are, in proportion to their wants as compared with their possessions. Great Britain with a circulation of fifty or a hundred millions, and a trade in proportion, might find it self more pinched for money, or the means of carrying on its operations, than France with only half the amount of circu lation, and half the business, though spread over a population exceeding that of the British islands by one-third—exactly as a rich man with large occasions, may be infinitely more em barassed for money than his humblest menial, who has occa sions only in proportion to his means. So long as the occa sions of a country are equal to its circulation, the circulation will not fall there ; it may be even more valuable as a gene ral position, than in a poorer country with fewer occasions. Money in this way might flow from the poor country to the rich, exactly as it might from the poor man to the rich ; and the circulation of credit, to a proper extent, is in such cir cumstances of infinite value, in two ways ' • in preventing an. active and industrious country, like Great Britain, from being at the mercy of an idle country (but with surplus capital in the hands of a few,) for the mere instruments of trade ; and in preventing the possessors of capital in a poor country, from rendering it yet poorer, by selling the instruments of trade, and means of employment, to strangers, in disregard of the poor and unemployed at home. In the simple view which I take of the circulation, we have just to say this :—The occasions of the country require a cir culation of a certain number of millions ; how many of these is it safe and proper to have in paper, in the view of saving the expense of bunion ? and consequently how many in bul lion ? This is the only question in the first instance. We have long held that one third in bullion is a fair pro portion to be in the hands of banks issuing notes. I cannot avoid saying, that as regards banks, this is a ridiculous position ; for it is their prudence, and the nature of their securities, that in reality give security to the public at present. But in regard to the public generally, it may be a very proper proportion, if we provide that it shall be main tained; and this it will be my object to do, whatever may be the proportion determined upon ; and I would do it thus : The circulation of the Bank of England has of late years been reported from £16,000,000 to £18,000,000; state it at The circulation of other banks has been stated at 12,000,000 Though, I think, greatly under the mark, if Scotland and Ireland are included. And the bullion in the country has been stated at 18,000,000 Together £48,000,000 That is, £2,000,000 under It is many years since I estimated the circula tion of Great Britain and Ireland (by a pro cess which I need not detail) as certainly £50,000,000 equal to And the power of circulation required to transfer the immense mass of property constantly floating from hand to hand in this country, and in its dependencies so far as resting on this country, cannot be less than £100,000,000. This may not be all in bank notes and bullion ; on the contrary, the bills of merchants may supply a very' large proportion ; and at present they certainly do, particularly in Elngland. But as these are always accompanied by more or less of risk, and so far as they pass and are retained in the circle, form a soecies of irregular circulation, the object should be, to provide the means of passing these into the hands of the banks of issue, or PUBLIC SPONSORS ; and to provide that these public sponsors shall be equal to their task. I think, then, that we necessarily fail to contemplate a power of circulation, to the extent of one hundred tnillions ; but the actual exigencies of the case, will ver speedily de termine it to the last shilling, under the plan which I am to propose ; and it is this : Suppose the power of circulation required in this country to be £100,000,000 And that we determine that two-thirds may safely be in paper, then deduct for bullion one-third, or And the sum to be allowed in paper, that is, to be issued by banks, will be about If the returns in the hands of government, the judgment of better informed men, or the actual circumstances of the case, shall fix it at its supposed present amount, of or at any amount less or more, it will only vary the details, and not the principle. But my FIRST POSITION is, LET THE CIRCULATION OF BANKS BE LIMITED ; for without this, there is no power of regulating, guaranteeing, or in any other way treating it, as is necessary for the safety of indi viduals, or the really onward prosperity of the state. To make these thirty millions, or these sixty millions of paper SAFE, and to distribute them properly over the country, (every part of which has an equal right to be attended to, so far as possible,) I would suggest.— Second,—That every bank proposing to issue currency, shall find security in the hands of government by purchases into the public funds, to the extent of one-half the amount of the notes they propose to issue. Third,—That these securities shall be INTANGIBLE BY THE BANKS, while they continue to issue notes on the faith of them, and be termed bank securities ; and when the banks should cease to issue, or determine to restrict their issues, securities to be returned in transferable bonds, in the propor tion of £lOO of securities, for every £2OO of notes cancelled ; that being the original ratio of issues and securities. Fourth,—To make sure that no more currency should be issued, or remain in circulation, than has been bargained for and guaranteed, STAMPED NOTES to the precise amount only, should be issued in the first instance ; and on a renewal, £lOO of new notes to be issued for 1:100 of old; the old to be cancelled before reaching the stamp-office, and there to be consumed. Fifth,—To compensate the country for this permission to COIN IN RAGS (which though profitable to the state, is yet more directly so to individuals), and for the trouble of super intending and regulating the system, the deposits should bear a reduced interest, say not exceeding three per cent. Sixth.—l conceive, that on the same ground, the securities should be made of FIXED AMOUNT ; that is, not rising or falling with the other debts of the State. This is necessary on another ground—to make them actual and undoubted securities. Seventh.—Let the power of issuing the circulation agreed on, be distributed over all the banks, and let provision be made that these banks, instead of being limited to one or a few spots, and so drawing the profits of banking from the provinces to capital cities, should be as equally as possible distributed over the country, and in the like manner diffuse the facilities, and distribute the profits of banking.—This is my plan ; and though exceedingly short and simple, I believe no single public regulation farther is necessary, and that all these regulations are necessary, and none of them unjust ; and I am satisfied, that in the long run, they would be im mediately useful and profitable to the State. I will show this iu another and concluding paper. . D. BAIN. • FATAL RENcorrritz.—Two gentlemen, on the 17th ult., both strangers in the west, had some dispute about the occu pation of the back seat in a coach, which runs between Peru and Chicago. Each drew a pistol at the same instant—each fired, and both fell to rise no more, for the contents of the loaded pistols had the effect they were intended to have — the contents of one entering the body just below the heart, those of the other passing through the head of the opponent. The driver, in haste, stopped the onward progress of his foaming steeds, to ascertain the cause of the reports of the pistols, and on unclosing th e coac h doors, what a horrible scen e did his eyes behold ! Two men, who but a few hours before left the hotel at Peru in social mirth and glee, now weltering in their blood. They were the only passengers, and both died before any aid could be called, the distance from any house being some miles.

SKETCHES OF THE JOLLY CLUB (Written for the Liverpool Standard.) JOE RATTLER'S PLANS FOR PRODUCING EFFECTS. EFFECT THE SECOND. After leaving New Brighton—that Elysium of marine scenery—we strolled leisurely along the shore until we came to a small inn by the way side, which Joe, bent upon another effect, determined to enter. Being informed that we should be more " comfortabler" on the bowling-green or in the tea gardens, we consequently, passing through the house, re paired thither, and found them to abound in shady bowers, rustic chairs, pieces- of flower plots, serpentine and elliptic walks, some of them actually elongated to as much as five or six yards, at every corner of which small boards met the eye with, " Visitors are requested not to touch the flowers or pluck the fruit," with other equally necessary information. ' Flowers ! where are ye ?" we asked, and echo answered— " Where?" If, however, there were not. many choice flowers or rare exotics, there were plenty of lilies, and roses. and lad's love, with some chickweed and heart's ease, sitting in the shady bowers •, the lilies and roses, with green parasols, and white veils—the lad's love with stiff cravats and high-heeled boots, and trying how sick a cigar-a-piece would make 'em—the heart's ease with long pipes, thick silver watch-guards, and plenty of hot rum and water—the chickweeds eating straw berries, raspberries, gooseberries oranges, cakes, nuts, bread and butter, shrimps, drinking ginger -beer, ale, rum and water, or any thing else they could get. Each bower appeared to have its own party, and all were enjoying them selves as hard as they could. Such was this modern Elysium ; and, we have no doubt, superior in the opinion of its visitors, to the hanging gardens of Ninessah. The place was tolerably filled with company, and Joe was for some time rather puzzled to know which "'bower" would be the best place for his debut ; I need scarcely say that he chose the one best filled, and this he did with his usual nonchalance. Bowing slightly, throwing him self on the seat in a lounging position, and pointing out one to me, he took off his bat and placed it on the table before him ; then with a great deal of delicate caution, commenced taking off a pair of white kids that he had just put on for the occasion, and displaying a brilliant, " hoped that he did not intrude." " Certainly not" was the reply from half a dozen voices. The bower was well filled by three or four comfortable mechanical looking gentleman, with their spouses all dressed in black lutestrings, two or three grown up daughters and about ten or a dozen children, all enjoying themselves in the way just described. "Ah !" said Joe, "if there be one scene under heaven which I delight in more than another, it is a scene like this." I looked him in the face, for I perceived he was commencing one of his effects, and I did not know what sort of an effect it might have on a company like the one before me; I gave him a gentle shake of the head, all I perceived to no use, as he appeared to think the opportunity too good a one to be neglected. "If there be one scene in this world more delightful than another, it is the one before me ; I should think, sir, that you are one of the happiest men in this sublunary world," said he, addressing the fattest per sonage of the lot, " I should think your joy unbounded when you have all these pretty little dears (patting two or three of the children's heads) thus around you. Your good lady there must feel herself in heaven, when she with her eye ' in a fine phrensy rolling,' first looks at their sire and then at the nu merous pledges of your mutual love : such a sight must at once remind her of the joys gone by, and those that are in store for her." " Aye," said the fat gentleman, " I dare say all that may be very fine, but they happen not to be mine. I never carry my pledges with me." " No," said another, "you generally leave them at your uncles when you go from home, and carry the certificate of their births in your fob pocket." This was said with a knowing wink, that appeared to be perfectly understood by all the party, and a roar of laughter followed. Joe nothing discomfitted at his mistake, declared the ladies were all so beautiful, the gentlemen so gallant, and the chil dren so engaging, (three of them were scrambling up his legs) that although he had studied physiognomy under Lavater, phrenology under Spurzheim, physiology under Abernethy, pharmacy under Sir Hostler Farrier, pugilism under his two eldest sisters when a very little boy, drawing from Von Spigot, painting from Von Shootanwaater, the art of gun nery from the shooting gallery, and perspective from Martin, (the painter of Belshazzar's dinner party), yet there would be some difficulty in saying which was the `glad parent,' which the ` happy child.' " All this was done with a volubility of speech truly perplexing, but had the effect of exciting at tention, for when he had finished, ladies drew in their breaths, and the gentlemen resumed their pipes, not how ever without sundry sly winks, and nods, as with a great deal of sagacity, they appeared to be making up their mind to doubt his veracity. " I'll weave a gay garland, a fresh blooming garland of lilies and"—" Oh, go on, pray go on," cried he, " if there be one thing in this sublunary world I love better than another, it is music, vocal of course, and that too from lips so lovely— but I ask pardon, be seated, be seated, by all means ladies, perhaps you did not expect to find an addition to your com pany ? This is charming—this is delightful—this is as it should be—now we are complete." All this was addressed to two young ladies who had evidently belonged to the bower party, but had been taking a stroll in the garden, and had been amusing themselves with more than bee-like industry, for instead of ' culling sweets from every flower,' they had brought the flowers themselves, and a precious collection they were. Joe however, with his usual politeness (impu dence some would say) and gallantry, took one of the flowers (a marigold) kissed it and placed it in the fair one's bosom. The pipes were again let down, the wink and nod were again put into requisition, with a few other symptoms of a less flat tering nature—the lad's love (for one had come in with the young ladies) and heart's ease looking rather queer, one pa rentally, the other with a touch of the `green eye.' He however, was so truly civil and had such a good-natured face, that they did not exactly know what to make of it; so appeared resolved to wait a little longer, and see more before they ventured upon a remark. Who could he be?—what could he be ? became the anxious thought of all. "He must be rich," thought the men ; " he must be a gentleman," thought the young ladies ; " he is so handsome"—" and gallant," thought she of the mari gold ; " quite a dear"—" puppy," muttered young lad's love. " He'll be giving the children half-a-crown apiece," thought their mothers;—" be paying for a bowl of rum punch," thought their fathers ;—" he'll be offering to buy me a new ' satin turque,' " thought she of the marigold, with per haps a gold chain and a spy-glass ; but—l'll not accept it !" and she tossed up her little head, and looked the picture of affrighted modesty. Alas ! all were doomed to be disappointed ; for, in the midst of their cogitations, Joe espied the waiter—a short, stiff Cheshire lass—crossing the opposite angle of the bowl ing-green, when, with the voice of a Stentor, he called out " Waiter !" She had got a tray in her hand with some re freshments, evidently intended for a party in a bower oppo site; but was so staggered with the loudness of Joe's call, that she looked round, and a repetition of the thunder ing command Drought her mechanically to where Joe was sitting, with the tray, pop-bottles and all, in her hand. " Well, Mary —Mary, my dear, what's your name ? " " Jane." " Oh! very well, my dear—very well; as soon as you have taken those refreshments to their respective destinations, you will oblige me by calling on your return, as I have a trifling command for you ; that will do, Jane." The girl stared, went off, and presently returned. Joe was so busily occupied with kissing the little darlings and ogling the young ladies, that he was, or affected to be, quite unconscious of the girl's return. She reminded him, how ever, with " Now what is it, please ?" "Oh ! Jane, my dear, you are returned ; well, my love, have you got any thing to eat, anything in the shape of dinner, eh ?" " Aye, ween gettun mutton poies an' veeal poies."; "Oh ! confound the pies! Have yon got nothing else ?" " Yoi, ween sandwitches booth of ham an' beef." " Horrid ! I never could touch a sandwich since I was almost choked with one at Vauxhall-gardens, which would have certainly been the case but for the Dowager Duchess of Myeye giving me a glass of lemonade. No, my dear; I durst not cat one for the world. Sandwiches and cold bread and cheese give me the staggers ; for the one I hate, and the other affects my breath ; and that, you know, my dear, would be shocking. Have you positively nothing else, eh, my dear ?" • " Way, ween some coud lamb as was left at dinner." " That will do," exclaimed Joe ; " the very thing—the very thins. ! If there be one dish I love better than another in this sublunary world, it is cold lamb. So now, my dear, the quantity is the only thing that has to be arranged be tween you and me. What is the smallest possible quantity you can make ?" . " Fourpenn'orth." " Fourpennyworth ?—that will do. The very thing ! Then will you oblige me by letting me have it as soon as possible— fourpennyworth ; and, d'ye hear, Jane, my dear ? mind and cut it nice and fat—it will go further," said Joe—whispering to me as if not wishing to be heard—" it will go further; and, Jane, get me a little mint sauce to it ; I suppose there would be some left at dinner also ;—but, Jane my dear, don't bring it at the bottom of the plate, but in a nice little bowl, and a nice square piece of bread----as much as you can afford, of course. Here, here, my dear, don't be in such a hurry ; it is a long time until night, and by taking time, my dear, you will do everything with more personal comfort to your self, and with equal satisfaction to your guests. There, now, Jane, you may go. Mind and bring some salt." " I think," added Joe, turning round to me with great dignity, " that was giving some good advice to yon menial— some excellent advice. Oh ! I have been the making of many a waiter." He then commenced smacking his lips, and turning up the cuffs of his coat sleeves, as if be were preparing for a sump tuous feast.—" Aye, that will do—that will do, my dear," he exclaimed, as the girl handed in the bread and lamb— " that will do ; and very nice it is. Now, my dear, what have you got that you could particularly recommend in the way of drink to this delicious repast, eh ?" " Way, we'en gotten bottled poorter." "Oh hang the bottled porter ! that I suppose would be a shilling a bottle. I No, no, my dear ; I have been done in that way before. What's the price of your beer:" " Eightpence a quart." " Then bring me a pint of sixpenny." " We never dos bring sixpenny into the gardens," ex claimed the girl, with a snort of contempt." " Oh, very well, bring in eightpenny, then, of course; but, d'ye hear ? don't be in such a hurry, my dear. Really you're very pretty, Jane; pon honor I did not observe it before. What's your age ?—but never mind it just now ; another time will do. Let me see—what did I call you back for? Oh— bring two tall-boys for the ale ; my friend will do me the ho nour, perhaps, to take a glass with me; besides, I abhor tumblers, it's so soon done." Away went the girl and away went nearly the rest of the bower party; for the young ladies began to get fidgetty at observing so much meanness in one so fine ; the gentlemen began puffing at their pipes faster than ever, and indeed the noses of the whole company seemed all at once to have a strange inclination to take a look at what was going on at the top of the bower. Joe all the time was smacking his lips and devouring the fat (for the girl had literally obeyed him in this particular) with all the gout imaginable, exclaiming between every mouthful, "delicious?"—" exquisite ?"—and by the time the beer arrived he had devoured the whole, and that, too, as voraciously as if he he had not tasted food for a month. " Well, my dear," said Joe, when the girl returned, "you have brought th e beer; now, my dear, you see I havefinished the lamb—and very nice it was, too, I assure you—but you should not have put the mint sauce at the bottom of the plate, however,d a ft. e t l yde 0 1 e a : so d tnu7s g given stealsaa mynaedvantsetrt; exclaimedes s u rbh, c i h j;,ht oas e h, etar x ewmi, express site e : hg s ßtme s . o igatn r i:Are d ima e sled t ao o seochawfe t i rrhsni:et from ajty c na o . mddanoeet:, has this sy r mi y obs aa;eptebi matter.

'He that steals s u la y ve pu to rs t e b of bread, robs me of that which not enriches him, but makes me poor indeed.' Now, my dear, don't you think you could make a pennyworth of nice mild Cheshire cheese to it, eh ?" said he. This was enough, the company arose en masse. It was the climax. A shock from a galvanic battery could not have surprised them more. One and all looked at Joe with the most withering contempt ; the mothers cuffed their children from beside him ; the gentlemen looked disappointed rum punch, and long pipes at him ; young lad's love was de lighted, and ' knew it would be so ; even she of the marigold said he was a ereetor'—" satin turques, eh! with his diamond guards, o i h n indeed, and wanting hal a d p i e d n y n a y l; wort gentlemen looking stern, and Away they all went, the . rings ha:fd cheesegold watchto his bread, on their escapefrom a were congratulating themselves pick pocket. and so lemn, and buttoning up their pockets . as though the; The waiting girl seeing all this , had never seen suc h shabberness—" took spirit, a pen'irit, and said orth o' cheese, deed! there was people as came into those the re g ardens as she .a. spent more than live shillings at once, without not never mak- ing half the fuss. Four-pen'orth o' lamb for two on ye ! These here gardens isn't used to be sarved a that 'uns." " From all this I am to infer that I cannot get cheese to my bread, although willing to pay for it," said Joe, holding out the penny,—" take care what you do ; if my request be not immediately complied with, I shall at once write to the Home Secretary about it, and ask him whether one of her Majesty's lieges, and a traveller, too, cannot get refresh ments at a licensed,victualler's, when he is willing to pay for it. Look to it, I say, look to it. Cannot I take mine ease at mine inn ?" shouted Joe, in a voice that was heard half over the garden. "We will see about this—look to your next licensing day—that's all." With this he leisurely com menced wrapping the bread up in a piece of paper, and then put it into his pocket. "We will see about this." The girl took up the plates, jug, &c. and said " she didn't care a pin about home secrets, she had go secrets she cared about any one knowing—shabberness !" The other bower parties hear ing the altercation, came out to witness our departure, which we endeavoured to effect in the best manner possible, Joe leisurely pulling on his white kids—adjusting his beauteous curls, walking slowly, and drawing his person up to his full height, as a man would do after he conceived he had reformed some monstrous abuse, or at least had attempted it, and ex pected to receive the thanks and good wishes of the commu nity for his exertions. Getting off easily was not, however, a very easy matter, for the girl had preceded us ; and just as we had arrived about half way down the walk, she called out with all her might—" Fourpenn'orth o' lamb and a pint of ale for two on 'em." 'lipping Enttlligrurt. This was enough. Hisses, laughs, and groans followed us ; and this was not the worst, for our party of the bower had got into the house before us, and told the landlady, waiters, and indeed the whole company, of our behaviour. I bad been afraid of this, and endeavoured to get out another , _but could not succeed, as all was blocked up. We must pass through the house, and what I most feared Joe most wished. He went boldly first ; I slunk very sheepishly after him ; and there they were sure enough, three deep, all along the lobby. Joe shrugged up his shoulders, crossed his arms on his breast, looked sublime, and walked like Macready making one of his grand exits. He looked like a man who had dined sumptuously, and given half-a-crown a-piece to the waiters, who, with the landlord, landlady, and entire company, had thus assembled to testify their respect and esteem, and silently to breathe a prayer for his future welfare and happiness. A stranger might have thought for an in stant this to be the case, although such an idea would soon have been dissipated; for scarcely had we got to the door when such a peal of laughter, groans, hisses, and shouts I never heard. " Lamb''—" fourpenny"—" a- penn'orth of cheese." " Where is it ?" " Hoorah ! hoorah !" " Ha, ha, ha!" " Hoorah !" " One more hoorah !" " There," said Joe, "what d'ye think of that, you dog ? Why, man, if I had been a Member of Parliament, leaving my delighted constituency previous to my going to make all their fortunes in St. Stephens, or a popular landlord, leaving his happy and prosperous tenantry, there could not have been more fuss at my departure. Ha, ha! ho, ho, ho !" And Joe verily shed tears with laughing. '• Ah !" said Joe, when he had fairly got out, (for Joe could be serious,) " how much you people owe me. I have flattered their vanity without their knowing it. They will contrast their characters with mine, and find them—ah ! how superior. I have awaked their sympathies, and that, too, for their own virtues. I have awaked their virtuous indigna tion—the most pleasing of all our worser passions —and, alas, the seldomest required. The antithesis produced will give a most preponderating balance in their favour ; and mad though my acts were, yet, in the recital, they will be magni fied a hundred fold. It will serve them a long time to talk about, and perhaps this may cause them to caution their children from being as great puppies in reality as I appeared to be to them to-day; Well, it's of no use moralising, but I do somewhat regret playing the fool once to-day, for cer tainly one of those young ladies we saw at Brighton was very pretty ; on my honour I should very much like to know who they were. If ever I see her again—" Ha, ha, ha!" " Oh, lam quite serious." " Ha, ha!" ANOTHER REGAL VISITOR-THE QUEEN'S INSTRUCTOR For some months past the attention of the police on duty at the palace, the servants therein, and of other persons of greater distinction, has been directed to the movements of a man (a German), who has' never failed by day, and scarce by night, to be present when the Queen and Prince Albert left the palace. It appears froni the information we have been able to collect, that the man's name is Perthman. He is a German by birth, about 33 years of age, his counte nance has a haggard look, (acquired no doubt by sufferings from penury), but it bears with it an intellectual expression of no mean order. He asserts himself to be of respectable parentage, to have been educated in the same college with his Royal Highness Prince Albert, and to have obtained the de grees of doctor of civil and canon law, and he says that the extensive study to which he devoted himself has consumed all his means, and he left his country to obtain patronage. Having written a Latin grammar (which he invariably carries with him), he expected the prince, upon the score of their being old school-fellows, we presume, to patronize his work ; and understanding that her Majesty was but indifferently acquainted with the classics, he desired to become her in structor. So infatuated did the poor man become, that at last he imagined that both the Queen and Prince were de sirous of seeing him, and to be certain that he should not have to blame himself for being absent when wanted, he made it an invariable custom to go to the palace not later than the forenoon. His inquiries were constant of people about the palace as to whether he was wanted, or what the royal pair bad said of him. The unfortunate lunatic would then post himself near to the marble arch, or at the garden gates, and watch for the coming out of the royal party to take their usual exercise. He never attempted to address her Majesty or the Prince, or to make any mo tion beyond those of courtesy, which he performed with all the formality and homage of a courtier. To such excess of seeming loyalty and devoted attachment to the reigning power did this lunatic carry himself that he did not fail to follow the royal cortege to Windsor, to Ascot, to Epsom, to Claremont, to the Opera House, and even to parties given by the nobility. The police were well aware of his residence, but how he lived was not to be ascertained, except that it was known he was occasionally relieved by members of the no bility, and by several members of parliament, in the neigh bourhood of whose hall of oratory he would occasionally come, and sometimes venture into the interior. There were repeated instances of his going into coffee-houses, ordering refresh ments and going away without paying. The notice of the government being called to the actions of this man, who, though up to this time, had been harmless, but who might, eventually, commit some outrage, an inquiry was instituted on Friday last at the Home-office, as to the state of the man's mind. Both the inspectors of police at the palace, their men, and several servants, were examined, and the result was the issuing of a warrant for his apprehension. The police consta. ble who was intrusted with the warrant proceeded on Satur day morning to the lunatic s residence, in Panton-square, Haymarket, and took him into custody, a n d conveyed hi m to the station-house in Gardiner 's-lane, where he remained un til about two o'clock, when he was taken to the Home-office, and examined before Mr. Hall, the chief magistrate, and some of the members of the government. The examination lasted till nearly six o'clock, when the unfortunate maniac was taken by inspector Russell, one of the palace officers, to Bethlem hospital, where he will be confined until some communication can have been made' to his friends in Germany.—Morniny Herald of Wednesday.

Resolution, hence at Bahia Covz, July 7.—The Elizabeth Jennings, from Liverpool to New York, put in here, to day, leaky, and must discharge LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, JULY 7. (From the Circular of Messrs. James Scott and Son.) The imports of Flour froth the United States and Canadas since this day week have been to a fair extent ; of Wheat and Malt Coastways there has also been an increased supply, but of all kinds of Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, from Ireland, they have been very small. The weather has continued unseasonably cold and rainy all .last week, impeding Elay-making, and retarding the progress of the crops of Grain, of which reports are not more favourable than we stated in our last circular; in consequence of which, and of the improvement in the London and the other influential markets, we have experienced a very• steady demand for Wheat and Flour, free and in bond, at a further advance of 2(1 to ad per 7olb on the former, and of 6d to gd per barrel on the latter ; there has also been a little more demand for grinding Barley at about 2d advance, and for all other articles in the trade at fully last quoted prices here and in all our country markets. The only'alteration in the duties this week on Grain from Foreign Ports is a decrease of Is 6d per quarter on Beans and Peas ; the ex. traordinary fluctuations in the averages of Wheat in many towns from week to week, from which our town is not free, baffle all an ticipations as to the time when any decline may occur in the duiy on Wheat ; sales of Wheat in bond have been made to a fair extent, and very considerable quantities of Flour in bond have changed hands at fully the advance above noted; sonic few parcels of Oats in bond have been sold for export at 3s 8d to ss pd per 451 b. At this day's market we had a very good attendance, and in con sequence of a continuance of rainy weather and the improvement in the London market of yesterday, the advance noted above was fully obtained here, and still further increase in prices having been demanded by many importers and holders, the extent of business which would otherwise have occurred was much checked, but sales to a fair extent were effected.
