The genius and capabilities of Grattan ap pear to have been thoroughly appreciated by one of a kindred mind. Washington Irving saw that his friend possessed great descriptive powers—a quick instinct, that enabled him to understa n d a ll th e m y s teries of human idle dreams, emotions_ Alive with fl Against the pow Is its magic al 0 visionary maid and a lively and life-like ability in portraying them; added to these a great mastery of language ever ready to be the vehicle of his versatile mind in every phase, whether of pathos, or humour, or sentimentality, or moralising. By Irving's advice, Grattan reduced to order the memoranda of some of his touring, and sub mitted the manuscript to a London publisher. But the London publisher did not appreciate what was offered to him, and three others of his brethren were not a whit Go forth into And the holl Like these a Who would ke more sagacious. 'Tis a trite story in literature, and we could illustrate it by many an instance in our own day, where the rejected essay of the obscure author became the first step of the ladder up on w hi c h h e h as c li m b e d to 1 eminence. But Grattan thought not of this. When four -blishers I, ^' A It bath .iad pronounced his condemnation, he flung the manuscript aside as worthless, and turned again to his previous avocations. An accident, however, again brought it to light; and a literary friend was so convinced of its merit, that he introduced the author to Mr. Whit taker, the eminent publisher, who undertook to bring out the book ; and, in due time, the first series of " Highways and By-ways," dedicated to Washington Irving, issued from the press. The success of these delightful tales was great and rapid. They were thoroughly suited to the public taste, and to the time at which they appeared.

A WerED, oR Cot:rem/To IN Cnuncn,—We. copy the following from an autobiography which. Hugh Millar is now publishing in the Witner4.l :--" A simple , incident which occurred during my first morning attendance at Dr. I .rerie's chapel strongly impressed me with a sense of his, sagacity. There was a gueat deal of coughing in the place, the efft.cts of a recent change, f weather, and the doctor,. whose voice was not a• strong one, and who seemed somewhat annoyed by the ruthless interruptions, stopping suddenly short in the middle of his argument, made a dead pause. When people are taken, greatly by surprise they cease to cough —a circumstance on which he had evidently calculated. Every eye was now turned towards him, and for a full minutes° dead was the silence that one might have heard a. pin drop. 4 I see, my friends,' said the doctor, resuming his speech, with a suppressed smile, ' I see you can be. all quiet enough when I am quiet. There was not a little genuine strategy in the rebuke , ; and, as cough lies a good deal more under the influence. of the will than most coughers suppose, such was its effect, that during the rest of the day there was not a tithe of the previous coughing." THE FATOV-RITE DISHES Or AIITHOItB.—Dr., Rondelet, an ancient writer on fishes, was so fond of figs, that he died of a surfeit occasioned by eating them to: excess. In a letter to a friend, Dr. Parr confesses his love of "hot boiled lobsters, with a profusion of shrimp sauce." Pope, who was an epicure, would lie in bed for days at Lord Bolingbroke's, unless he was told that there were stewed lampreys for dinner, when he arose instantly and came down to table. A gentleman treated Dr. Johnson to new honey and clouted cream, of which he ate so largely, that his entertainer became alarmed. All his lifetime Dr. Johnson had a voracious attachment for a leg of mutton. " At my aunt Ford's," says he, " I ate so much of a boiled leg of mutton, that she used to talk of it. My mother, who was affected by little things, told me seriously that it would hardly ever be forgotten." Dryden, writing in 1699 to a lady, declining her invitation to a handsome supper, says :—" If beggars might be choosers, a chine of honest bacon would please my appetite more than all the marrow puddings, for I like them better plain, having a very vulgar stomach." Baron Maseres, who lived to the age of ninety, used to go home one day in every week without any dinner, eating only a round of dry toast at tea, Aristotle, like a true poet, seems to have literally feasted on fancy. Few could live more frugally ; in one of his poems, he says of himself, "that he was a fit per son to have lived in the world when acorns were the food of men."—S'alads for the Solitary. mature mane tl ty, in fresi excelled me lie is a refino;i ourselves to a perfect iden tity of opinion in every statement made in the above extract, it must be admitted to evince general accuracy of judgment, ad an mi d by no means an illiberal or untrue estimate of Thomson's poetry.

Jr ogg's Instructor. Edinburgh : James Hogg. The December number of this periodical com pletes its first volume as a monthly serial. It continues to maintain a creditable place among the periodical literature of the day : and unlike several of the old-established monthlies, which, professing a politico-literary character, have gradually with drawn from political strife, Hogg, affecting a non political destiny, is deeply imbued with political bias, which occasionally manifests itself in a form considerably more than inferential. With its politics we entertain no feeling of sympathy ; its literary characteristics we recognise in a frie n dly, though not adulatory strain. Its contents are always varied, and often possessed of deep interest. The present number will bear a favourable com parison with any of its predecessors. It com mences with a brief, butinteresting biographical sketch o f " H ugh Miller," editor of the Edinburgh Witness, and author of several popular, as well as v aluable and original works on Geology. Mr. Miller is a remarkable and creditable specimen of a hard-headed, horny-fisted, but warm-hearted Scotchman ; self-educated, self-reliant, and emi nently intellectual : who, through native talent and indomitable energy, has fought "his way from the obscure and arduous manual toil incident to labour ing in a stone-quarry, to occupy a proud and widely- recogn i sed position as an intellectual lumi nary. Another paper in this number is devoted to a biographical notice of " William Paterson, founder of of the Bank of E ng l an d , and of the Scottish colony Darien." Ms memoir, thou g h b r i e f, an d, on the whole, rather meagre, is both interesting and Po From it we learn that the Bank of England is not the only institution for which: London is indebted to the sagacity and enterprise of Paterson. "In his early residence in London, hhe engaged in an enterprise for supplying its in— abitants with good water," and was " joint lessee of t 11( Hampstead works." Though an assiduous, as well as an intelligent merchant, Paterson was likewise warmly attached to intellectual and literary pursuits. He was the associate and fellow-labourer of Addison, Steele, Budgett, and others, who were, and still are, considered literary lions of that period. To a thorough knowledge of commercial business of every kind, Paterson added to his literary accomplishments no mean skill as, a prac tical agriculturist ; and he is understood: to have peen the original of Addison's " Sir Andrew Free port." Some idea of the quality and extent of aterson's ' accomplishments may be gathered from what he narrates in relation to his. own library of trade. The observations, though plain, are not unworthy of the pen of a " Merchant Prince" o those days, and may be perused with advantage, a well as satisfaction of the present the aristocracy of commerce PATERSON'S ISITES 1 My collec some better idea than what is commonly c quisite to the knOwledi ed of the tracts or treaties re- I study of a matter so deep and hich, notwithstanding we already had, extensive as tra the noise of and are still t yet to have beer e reamed never ligested, nay, nor ny.

The literary renown of this Irish celebrity will be deemed ample apology for intro ducing to our readers the following short sketch, extracted from the memoir illustrative of GRATTAN'S FIRST STAGE ON THE ROAD TO POPULARITY. Determined to push his fortune in the metropolis of France, Grattan removed' to Paris, and gave himself, vantages, he had the good fortune to become acquainted *th many of the celebrities of the day—with Moore and -ton Irving, amongst English writers—with De Beranger, Casimir de Lavinge, De Lamartine, Marchangy, Pierre Le Brun, amongst French authors. He now was a constant contributor to the English periodicals, writing wit Wastitn POLICE CO URT.-YESTERDAY, prisoner guilty.—His lordship, in passing sentence, said that the prisoner had been found guilty on what was, to his mind, very clear and satisfactory evidence of having engaged in the most violent outrage committed upon Mr. Crompton. Admitting to all engaged as workpeople the full right to judge for themselves whether they would work or not, it must be obvious to everybody, that to proceed to the works of Mr. Crompton, in the manner the prisoner and his accomplices did —several men falling at the same time upon Mr. Crompton, with sticks like con stables' staves, a more outrageous offence against the law than this could not by possibility be .perpetrated. The sentence of the court was that the prisoner be subject to penal servitude for four years. He might state —as this was prob Oily the first opportunity he or any other judge had had, except in London, of remarking upon this new act of parliament—that persons who were convicted of offences would find that their sentences under this new punishment would be entirely and fully carried out. In stead of working for himself, and thus earning wages to support himself, his wife, and his child, the prisoner would be kept at work as a slave for the term of four years.

LIT:ERPOOL WINTER ASSIZES PICKING POCKETS AT A ROMAN CATHOLIC CHAPEL. —George Pendleton, a young man about 18 years of age, THE Courts opened for the trial of prisoners on Tues day morning, at ten o'clock, Baron Alderson presiding was charged with picking the pocket of Mary Bryan, wife over that held in the place usually devoted to criminal of a labourer, on Sunday, in St. Peter's Roman Catholic trials, while Baron Martin occupied the bench in the other Chapel, in Seel-street. It appeared that the prisoner took court. The following gentlemen were sworn on the his seat beside Mrs. Bryan, and, while sitting, embraced the opportunity of picking her pocket of one shilling and GRAND JURY : sixpence. She felt his hand in her pocket, but on turning William Brown, Esq. (foreman), Richmond-hill, Liverpool. towards him he made off. She gave an alarm, and he was Henry Ashton, Esq., Woolton-wood, Liverpool. taken into custody. On being apprehended, he said he Henry Ashworth, The Oaks, Bolton. would give up the money if they would let him go.

CHARGE OF MURDER. Elizabeth Cunliffe was charged with the murder of her daughter, Alice Hannah Cunliffe. The prisoner, a woman in humble circum stances, appeared very dejected. Previous to her being arraigned it was intimated to the court that she was of unsound mind. His Lordship directed that she be con fined during Her Majesty's pleasure. The court then adjourned till nine o'clock next morning. THURSDAY. (Before Baron Alderaon.) His Lordship took his seat at nine - o'clock, and pro ceeded to hear the CHARGE Op MURDERING A POLICEMAIC—ThOrnaB Copeland, 19, was charged with the murder of Richard Sunderland, a police constable, on the Ist of No vember last. Mr. Aspinall, along with whom was Mr. Bolton, conducted the prosecution, and Mr. Atkinson defended the prisoner. All the facts connected with this case have already appeared in the Standard, and, as the circumstance was a recent one, an outline of these, as they appeared on the trial, will be sufficient. The fatal affray arose out of the contest for the representation of Vauxhall Ward, at the last borough election. About half past two on the afternoon of that day, the prisoner, along with some others, seeing Mr. John Evans and Mr. James Kearns canvassing for votes in a public-house, in Edgar-street, demanded drink from those gentlemen, which they refused to give. The prisoner and his coad jutors then became riotous, and the' police were sent for to disperse the crowd, most of whom went away, but the prisoner refused to go, and used violent language and threats towards Mr. Evans. The police . interfered, and, in an attempt to take the prisoner into• custoday, he struck the deceased, Richard Sunderland,. in the thigh with- a knife; inflicting a wound which nearly divided the femoral artery, and caused almost immediate- death. Evidence having been had as to the nature of the scuffle between the' deceased and prisoner, and also a* to , the cir cumstances under which the wound was inflicted ) , Ann Haughtron was examined. She resided in Court. No.. 8, Cavendish-street, where the prisoner lived. On the day and at tie time in question, she saw the prisoner run• into the court, swearing and calling out, " You if you follow me; croak you." She also heard hinpsay to the officer, "By --, I'll rip you up with this." The officer was just going in at the door, after the prisoner,. at the moment. The prisoner had a knife in his right hand, which she - saw him throw over his shoulder.. Witness saw the deceased-fall and die after that. —Mary Ann York, an intelligent child, about eight years of aw.,, who lived in the house 'the - prisoner resided in, was sitting: on the stairs when the'priSoner came in and took a white handled knife off the•table,• and held it in his hand. The police-officer came running-in. and , took the prisoner. She saw the prisoner stab the: policeman with a knife, which he held in his hand. Hellung. thelaxife into the street after stabbing the policeman.—For the defence, the learned counsel contended- that the'police-officers had no right to arrest the prisoner; under' the circumstances, without a warrant ; and argued- that the prisoner had displayed no indication of premeditation in the case.—His Lordship carefully went over: the • evidence, commenting on' its various points ; he all'tded also to the question of the'lelity of the arrest. The jury retired, and, after an absence of an hour and a half: they returned a verdict of "guilty of manslaughter." The' learned baron said, the jury had, after a patient investiggtion, foundtheprisoner guilty of the lesser crime of manslaughter only. How ever;'-the case was one of great aggravation, and he was vtry , sorry that the crime of stabbing in this town had greatly increased. The use of the knife had-been greatly orotheincrrase, much to the disgrace of the town. It 'ass uspractiee that should be put down- by law.. It un f6rtunately could not now be called xan tin...

The Court ( open f ed ore at nine o'c A lock erson and ) after passing sentence upon several prisoners, proceeded with THE LATE FRAUD ON THE COEPORATION. On this case, the circumstances of which are already so familiar to the public, being called on, Mr. Rawson, who had been admitted to bail, answered to his name, and Mr. Clarke appeared in the dock. John Harper, a clerk to Rawson, and who was also included in the indictment, and who had been admitted to bail, did not surrender when called neon. Joseph Rawson and William Clarke were then indicted for having unlawfully and fraudulently conspired, confe derated, and combined together, by divers false pretences, to acquire to themselves from the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses of the borough of Liverpool, the sum of £1,727 14s. 9d., with intent to defraud and cheat the said parties named. Mr. Simon and Mr. Brett conducted the prosecution Mr. Edward Jones had been specially retained for Rawson tgid Mr. Monk defended Clarke. . rue folloning ;brief summary of the indictment was TUESDAY, DECEIMR 18, 1853• a nt then laid before the jury by Mr. Brett. The first CO. th set forth that Rawson had entered into a contraet,li c the mayor, aldermen, and burgesses, for making bnu d that the bricks were made, and that it was the habit an i . custom, as to payment for the same, that a certifior' should be given by one Weightman, the borough surve3Toors upon the borough treasurer, for payment ; that this ens t p was well known to the prisoners ; that they preten they had made more bricks than they had, and by suclit pretence they had obtained a larger amount of paY n el, than was due. The second count stated the same PI pretences having been made to Wybergh (the borL u g o treasurer); the third, that the same pretences Imo made to Weightman; the fourth, to the mayor, alderol` and burgesses ; the fifth count charged a conspiraeY (b),, the first count ; the sixth charged a general conspiracy , which the prisoners obtained a greater amount tblin due ; and the seventh count that the prisoners eonsi's generally. over e th e Mr. Simon follo we d on the same s ide, going various circumsta nces with muc h minuteness, in, the coure of which h e narra t e d th e p rocess es by which ge alleged number of bricks made were checked 0 11 s showed, also, th a t a ft er th e num b ers h a d been checke d oa and determined, Rawson received a certificate front Weightman, which certificate was presented to the Fi nance Committee, and being i n d orse d by them, Rawson scp' enabled to draw the money. The charge arose out of the presentation of a certificate, which bore that more brick,: had been made than in rea lity h a d b ee n, Mr. Bai a went to the treasurer and received the money for t balance, and also other money ; and it was upon the pletion of this untrue account furnished that the present charge' arose; and it must be obvious that the wouM be established by showing the means of okanne the money, by falsifying the accounts handed by Te to Rawson, by Rawson to Clarke, and by Clarlie tut Corporation.
