THE STORMING OF ST. ELMO BY THE TURKS.

The besieged now concentrated their aim on the formi-
dable body of janizaries, who, as already noticed, were
hurrying forward to the assault. Their leading files were
mowed down;and their flank cruelly torn, by the cannon
of St. Angelo, at less than half a mile's distance. But
though staggered by this double fire on front and flank, the
janizaries were not stayed in their career, nor even thrown
into disarray. Heedless of those who fell, the dark
column came steadily on, like a thunder-cloud ; while the
groans of the dying were drowned in the loud battle-cries
with which their comrades rushed to the assault. The
fosse, choked up with the ruins of the ramparts, afforded a
bridge to the assailants, who had no need of the fascines
with which their pioneers were prepared to fill the chasm.
The approach to the breach, however, was somewhat
steep ; and the breach itself was defended by a body of
knights and soldiers, who poured volleys of musketry thick
as hail on the assailants. Still they pushed forward
through the storm, and, after a fierce struggle, the front
rank found itself at the summit, face to face with its ene-
mies. But the strength of the Turks was nearly ex-
hausted by their efforts. They were hewn down by the
Christians, who came fresh into action. Yet others suc-
ceeded those who fell ; till, thus outnumbered, the knights
began to lose ground, and the forces were more equally
matched. Then came the struggle of man against man,
where each party was spurred on by the fury of religious
hate, and Christian and Moslem looked to paradise as the
reward of him who fell in battle against the infidel. No
mercy was asked; none was shown • and long and hard
was the conflict between the flower of the Moslem soldiery
and the best knights of Christendom. In the heat of the
fight an audacious Turk planted his standard on the ram-
parts. But it was speedily wrenched away by the Che-
valier de Medran, who cut down the Mussulman, and at
the same moment received a mortal wound from an arque-
buse. As the contest lasted far into the day, the heat
became intense, and added sorely to the distress of the
combatants. Still neither party slackened their efforts.
Though several times repulsed, the Turks returned to the
assault with the same spirit as before ; and when sabre
and scymitar were broken, the combatants closed with
their daggers, and rolled down the declivity of the breach,
struggling in mortal conflict with each other.
To follow Mr. Prescott further would be to
encroach further on the limits of our space than
prudence will permit, though in resisting we feel

HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY

FLEMISH SOU-P.—Slice six onions, six heads of
celery, and a dozen potatoes into small pieces, then
put them into a stewpan, with a quarter of a pound
of butter, and half a pint of water, and set on a stove,
or the side of the fire to simmer for an hour; and when
done sufficiently, put in good beef or veal stock, so as
tO fill the stewpan, or enough to give a good flavour.
13611 gently until the potatoes became quite soft, then
rub through a sieve, add half a pint of boiled cream,
or some good thick white sauce 'to it, and serve hot.
ITALIAN CANES.—Grate the peel of three lemons,
then break up eight eggs into a large basin, whisk
them up well, add the lemon peel, and by slow de-.
grecs, a pOund of finely powdered sugar ; these
:Materials will require at least half-an-hour's mixing.
Have ready a pound of sifted flour, and put this to
the other ingredients a spoonful at a time, till you
have used the whole quantity. To ensure a proper
- size for the cakes, use a wooden hoop about a quarter
'Of an inch thick, and three inches clear
_in th 9 dia-
Meter ;' mould the
.paste with this, and sprat' the
cakes upon buttered paper ; bake in a well-heated
paper oven. When quite done, take them out, and
let them grow cold. Arrange them in pairs; bottom
to bottom,- in a tin which must be kept near the fire
for three days. Be sure to keep them in a dry store
itom, if so they will remain good for many months.
• CALEDONIA SHOETBREAD.—Divide a pound of fresh
butte-into small pieces, and mix these, by slow de=
-grees; with three pounds and a half of finely-sifted
flour. -Ca two ounces of candied orange peel and the

t6is of an inch long ; blanch, anddtvide into four two
ounces of sweet almonds, add the fruit and six ounces
of polVdered snow, to half 'a pound of, melted butter,
then mix all die' ingredients together as, quickly, as
poSsible; if you take too much time in kneading, your
shortbread will not be so crisp as it ought. With a

"134, Falknei:sireeiLiverpool, Sept. 15, 1855.
"I have much pleasure in testifying to the admirable perform-
ance of one of ' Harrison's' Leamington Kitcheners put up in my
house about three months since.

*" I have found it perfect in all its arrangements for cooking.
Its utility, cleanliness, and freedom from all smoke and dust form
an agreeable contrast to stoves formerly in use. In addition to
this, its small consumption of coal must in a short time save its
entire expense.
"Any person unaccustomed to its use would scarcely believe
its capability with the small quantity of fuel consumed.
"The skill and civility of Mr. Harrison's workmen employed
in its erection are much to be commended.

PIANO-FORTE TUNING.
At the suggestion of many of his Customers, W. R. takes this
mode of intimating, and submitting for approval, a Scale of
Charges for Tuning Piano-fortes by the Year.
That Piano-fortes be Tuned by. a competent rerson, at regular
' intervals is of importance even in the case of an indifferent in-
strument, but it is indispensably requisite where the preservation,
or otherwise, of a really good one is involved. _ _

The frequently-expressed satisfaction of those Ladies who have
done W. R. the honour to try this system, is the best recommen-
dation in its favour. -
SCALE OF CHARGES FOR TUNING PIANO-FORTES BY THE YEAR.

SINGLE TUNINGS.

strument should be Tuned at regular periods, to ensure its being
always in excellent order. The same rates will be charged for
Piano-fortes within Twelve Miles of Town, with the addition of
expenses. Tunings in the Country carefully attended to on the
different journies.
Repairing and Regulating by first-class Workmen; charges

COMPANY.

Tun Company': SELECTIONS OF TICS NICWSZASON'S TEA ARE
NOW SELLING at Old Postoffice-place, Liverpool.
The BEST CONGOUS arrived of this Crop are of the KAISOW
kinds, which we directed public attention to last year.
The MONINGS, or strong full-bodied Congous, ARE NOT SO FINE
as previous imports.
The ZONING districts are now largely occupied by the Rebels,
and this may account why the FINEST TEAS OF THE SEASON 1854
are now only finding their way through to the coast.
We are happy to inform our Customers that WE HAVE SECURED
SOME OF THESE. They are REMARKABLY FINE, finer than any
we have hitherto sold.

Congous are better adapted for consumption in Liverpool, on
account of the HARDNESS of the water.
But where SOFTER water is attainable, we recommend our
SOUCHONOS and OOLONGS, whose MELLOW and EXQUISITE
flavour are not properly extracted by hard water.
To give our Customers an opportunity of tasting the FINEST
of the new Season's Congou, we shall sell it at 4s. per lb.
It does not pay us; but it is as much as it is worth.
Our FINE OLD MONINGS AND KAISOWS we sell at the SAME
PRICE, and they are IMMEASURABLY SUPERIOR.
By order of the Company,

PROVISIONS

LIVERPOOL, Nov. 16.—There is increased activity in' the
market for beef, and the sales for the week reach nearly 2,000
tierces,.at very full prices. The result of the government con-
tract is not yet known, but it is understood that the tenders sent
in are much more numerous than usual. Pork, for want of
assortment, has been sparingly dealt in ; advanced prices are
demanded by holders. In the Irish bacon market there is more
firmness this week. No American has yet arrived. Holders of
lard early in the week were free sellers, but they now hold for an
advance of Is to 2s, which checks business. The reduced rates
for English cheese, and the large arrivals of American, encourage
the dealers to make a stand for lower prices.
Nov. 19.—Butter continues in good request, and prices have
further advanced is to 2a per cwt. since this day week. Stocks
are unusually small for the period of the season ; more than one-
third of the import consists of pickled from Cork for exportation,
and seconds sell at 102 s on arrival. The market is firm at the
improvement, with a tendency for still higher rates. Waterford
and Dungarvan, 106 s to 109 s; Kilkenny, Carrick, Wexford, Clon-
mel, and Carlow, 104 s to 1088; Limerick, 98s to 101 s; and Sligo,
96s to 104 s per cwt. landed. Imported from Ireland from the
10th to the 16th instant, both inclusive, 11,837 firkins, 210 kegs,
753 crocks, 447 boxes, and 40 barrels butter, 194 bales bacon, 11

ing from a rigid application of the billeting system ;
while an advocacy of the right to open places of amuse-
ment on the Sunday may be diversified with lectures
on the sanctity of the Lord's-day.

The self-sufficiency that would undertake the com-
mand of the Channel fleet, or perform an operation
in lithotomy, at five minutes' notice, can find no
difficulty as to choice of subjects, nor as to their ap-
parent incongruity ; and as the reception at the
mayoralty banquet is no doubt a notice to quit
as far as the representation of London is concerned,
with perchance no convenient borough to supply the
deficiency, it is commendable prudence on the part of
Lord JOHN RUSSELL to prepare himself for a new
walk of life, in which, though his auditors may not
be legislators, nor his theme the rights and interests
of nations, he may contrive to keep his name before
the public.

TO GAS CONSUMERS.

THE PATENT GAS REGULATOR insures a
saving of 25 per Cent. upon former consumption, while at
the same time a more brilliant light is obtained, and the un-
pleasant effects upon respiration, gilding, colours, &c., resulting
from the escape of unconsumed Gas, are, by a more perfect com-
bustion, avoided.
Gas is generally delivered from the Street Mains at a pressure
of la inches of water, often reaching to 3 inches. Experiments
have demonstrated that when of good quality it is most economi-
cally burnt at a pressure of four-tenths of an inch.
The Patent Regulator, when once adjusted, continues to furnish
Gas at one uniform pressure, unaltered by the constant fluctua-
tions of the street supply, and in its action is entirely independent
of the number of burners it supplies.
At the undermentioned Offices an Experimental-room is fitted
up to demonstrate the results as above stated. The Regulator has
been thoroughly and practically tested at the numerous Railway
Companies, large Establishments, Public Institutions, and Private
Mansions, to which we can with pleasure and satisfaction refer as
the best proof of its utility and value.
