WRECK OF THE NORWEGIAN BRIG

TO THE EDITOR OF THE IMPRESS.

Slll,—As a visitor in this neighbourhood, I have
been much affected by a very melancholy spectacle—the
wreck of the Pearl, Norwegian brig, which took place on
the 2nd inst., at Freshwater Bay. At two o'clock on that
day I saw the gallant vessel riding at anchor, little con-
scious of her coming fate. Soon after three she parted her
cable, and in a few minutes—minutes of agonising suspense

.
to those who witnessed it—she was driven stern (eternise
the Arched Rock. I was told that in the early part of t
day assistance had been offered to the captain by a steamer
passing to tow the vessel into safer quarters bat
that the terms demanded had been so exorbitant, that be
did not consider himself justified in acceding to them. As
reports upon this point differ, and as it is difficult to asaas•
min the truth, my object in addressing you is to obtain, V
possible, information as to the fact, and to inquire whether
in Christian England there exists no law to restrain the
mercenary trilling with life which such conduct exhibits.
We should abhor the wretch who could leave a drowning
fellow-creature to sink whilst bargaining with him for help,
and what shall we say of men (can we call them men ?) who
could foresee the probability of such a catastrophe (the
individuals most concerned, u foreigners, ignorant of the
extent of their danger), and in their sordid love of gnin
leave them to perish ? If by inserting this in your paper
you can promote investigation into this painfully interesting
case, audio prevent future evil, you will much oblige
Your obedient servant,
Freshwater, Isle of Wight, HUALINITAS.

Slll,—May I be allowed, in your columns, to ask
why the Bntish public is so horrified at tho idea of
women dressing in trowsers, seeing that they have
for many years tolerated a number of men (from tho
north of the Tweed) in wearing petticoats—and
shockingly short petticoats too ?

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.YEsTERDAT.

The October General Quarter Session of the Pence for
the county of Middlesex, commenced this morning at
Clerkenweil, before Mr. Serjemit Adams, the assistant
judge, and a full bench of magistrates. There were only
36 prisoners for trial.
The learned Judge shortly addressed the grand jury.
A Madagascar sailor named GOOM was indicted for
having stolen six half-crowns, the property of Chau, the
mate of the ship Larkins, lying in the East and West India
Docks.
. . . .

The prisoner was a seaman belonging to the same ship
as the prosecutor, and the money in question was stolen
from underneath the pillow of the latter as he lay ills board.
The prisoner went up to the side of the sick man's bed, took
the handkerchief in which the money was placed, went
away with it before the prosecutor's own eyes, and he was
too ill to prevent him. The black crossing sweeper who
used to he stationed by St. Paul's-churchyard, and who, it
may be remembered, was favourably noticed by General
Jung llahadoor, the Sepaule-se Ambasader, was in atten-
dance to act as interpreter, neither the prisoner nor the
prosecutor being able to speak English, but that duty was
performed by au officer of the II division.
'fhe prkoner was found Guilty, and the court sentenced
him to four months' hard labour. _ _

The prosecutor identihtd the shoes on the prisoner's feet,
as a pan that had ►een stolen from him, and ;the court
ordered them to be given up.
The other UVs brought before the court during the day
were devoid of interest.
London, England, 1851-10-08

IHIS DAY.

Business in the share market is very quiet to-day,
and in sympathy with the other departments of the
Stock Exchange, the general tendency of prices
has been downwards. Caledonians, Brightons,
!Midlands, London and North Westerns, and
South Easterns aro marked at a decline, but for
other descriptions yesterday's rates are in most in:,
stances supported. Eastern Counties are steady.

being 14,6411. against 13,691/. in the corresponding
week of last year.

day's quotations.

DEEP-SEA SOUNDINGS.—In the course of the re-
cent session of the United States Association for the Ad-
vancement of t3e3enee, it was stated in one of the papers
that not less than a thousand vessels were now out engaged
in making observations on the depth of the sea. As showing
that the bottom of the oceans is as uneven or rugged, if not
more so, than the face of the earth, it was also mentioned
that the United States ship Albany measured the Gulf of
Mexico, and found the lower part to be about a mile deep,
but that another vessel found in the sea, along the southern
shore, a depth of five miles, and afterwards, within a short
distance, she found bottom with a lino of a quarter of a
mile.
London, England, 1851-09-12

MARK-LANE.--THIS DAY.

The few parcels of Wheat which appeared upon tho
Essex and Kent stands this morning were disposed of at
Monday's quotations. The offers from the East Coast were
more numerous, and purchases of such were effteted on
rather easier terms than at the beginning of the week.
Flour maintained its value. There appear to be welt
authenticated accounts of the spread of the Potato disease
in various parts of the kingdom.
Barley was unchanged in value.
There was a steady trade in Oats, and Monday's quota-
tions were fully supported.

SMITHFIELD MAItKET.-THIS DAY.

The number of Beasts is large, but the majority is of
very inferior quality, consequently choice ones are quite as
dear as on Monday; trade, however, is remarkably dull for
all other kinds. Good Sheep arc not very plentiful, trade is
brisk fur them at fully Monday's quotations. We have now
but a small demand fur Lamb, the season is nearly over.
Good Calves maintain their price ; middling ones arc very
unsaleable. From Germany and Holland there are 740 Beasts,
2,890 Sheep, 3SO Calves, and 60 l'igs; Spain, 59 Beasts;
Scotland, 30; 250 from the Northern and Midland; and
98 mulch Cows from the name Counties.

GERMANY.

BERLIN, SEPT. 9.
The Hannorer Zedung communicates the following
resolution of the Blind, under the date of the 23M
August:
The Federal Assembly demands of the several federal
governments to examine the institutions that have been
called into existence since 1818; and, if they should
not be found in harmony with the constitution of the
Blind, to make the requisite alterations without de-
lay. In case any governments should meet with
hindrances in carrying out this object in a constitutional
way, they will have to consider whether it will be necessary
to have a commission from the Blind to effect their purpose.
The Mind has determined to appoint a committee to make
a report OR such cases, and also with all expedition to draw
up the plan of a federal law of the press to oppose and cor-
rect the at present prevailing abuses of the press.

Two or three ambassadors, the Hanoverian paper
adds, pleaded want of instructions for not acceding
to this resolution. The same paper communicates
another resolution, of the 16th August :

1. That all propositions duly! and formally presented to
the Bond should, after the expiration of fourteen days, be
examined. 2. That all governments, for the sake of the
despatch of business should furnish their ambassadors, from
the beginning with sufficient instructions. 3. That when
further instructions are required, a delay, previous to
coming to a resolution should be granted, of not less than 11
days and not longer than a month. After which delay any
motion would be passed without respect to the plea of want
of instructions.

CITY COMMISSION OF SEWERS.

Yesterday the commissioners assembled in the
Guildhall, Mr. DEPUTY PEACOCK in the chair.

EXECUTION OP TOE OAS cowraxv's KOREA.
Mr. if. L. TAYLOR rose to move —" That the resolution I
of the commissioners at their meeting, held on the ltith
inst.—' that in laying the 24-inch main, which the court
have given the Great Central Gas Consumers Company
permiss on to do, from the west c nd of Cheapsidc to the east
end of Leadenhall-street, that the work must he executed
between the hours of seven o'clock in the evening and eight
o'clock in the morning, under the direction of the surveyor
of this court '—be rescinded, that company not having
complied with the requirements of the 131 th section eat the
City of London Sewers Act, 1848, or with the same require-
ments contained in the 30th section of their own act.-'
The previous question was carried after some discussion,
not more than three members having held up their hands
against it.
Mr. WIIITESIDE then rose to propose the following
resolution That so much of the resolution of the com-
missioners passed at their meeting on the 16th inst., in re-
ference to the Great Central Gas Consumers' Company, as
restricts the time for laying down their main from the
west-end of Cheapsidc to the east-end of Leadenhall-street,
to between the hours of 7 o'clock in the evening and S
o'clock in the morning, be rescinded, and that it may be
completed with the utmost despatch, the said company
be allowed to execute such work by clay as well as by night
under the direction of the surveyor." lie was convinced
it would be advantageous to the public to allow the com-
pany to proceed with the work with the greatest rapidity,
and it was quite evident that they would lay the pipes more
securely and effectively by day than by night. The conse-
quence of this permission would be that the inconvenience
which in such a thoroughfare must arise from the obstruc-
tion, would be of comparatively very short duration.
Mr. HALL, of Dishopsgate, seconded the motion, which
was ultimately negatived.
London, England, 1851-10-01

SPAIN.

A Madrid letter of the 24th states that the report
of Marshal Narvaez having been written to by an
influential member of the Spanish cabinet, to request
that he will defer his visit to the capital until the
excitement of his friends against the government
shall hare subsided, is unfounded. The member of
the government who is alluded to is General Armero,
the Minister of Marine, but the purport of his letter
was not such as has been stated. General Ar-
mero, who is is an old friend of Marshal Narvaez,
had refused to accept office except on the condition
that the marshal should be received in Spain with
all the honours due to his rank, and, this condition
being accepted, General Armero is said to have
written to him to acquaint him with the fact, and to
state, in the name of the government, that whenever
he shall think proper to return to Spain, he will ex-
perience all the consideration to which his eminent
services entitle him. It is probable, however, adds
the writer of this letter, that the marshal mayave
delayed his return, out of regard for General Amen),
until the moment when it shall become his duty to'
take his seat as a member of the Senate.

ALLEGED MURDER.—Last night, Mr. Payne held
an inquest upon the body of Ann Sarah Parker, whose bus-
band was on Monday charged at the Worship street Police
Court with causing her death by violence. The evidence of
the surgeon was heard in addition to that of some other
witnesses, after which the jury returned as their verdict
I that " death was caused by effusion of blood on the brain,
but whether such effusion was produced by her husband's
assault there is no evidence to show."

THE GREAT EXHIBITION

The near approach of the closing day only
increases the anxiety of the public to visit the Crystal
Palace. Yesterday's was another enormous gathering, and
would have been still greater but for the threatening aspect
of the weather in the early part of the day. The great mass
of the visitors aro }till country people, and the manner in
which they crowd round the moat familiar objects proves
them to be in the majority of cases visitors for the day
only. The preparations for the final close go on with un-
abated vigour, and we believe that the ceremonial will take
place in the quietest possible manner, without any musical
" effects" vocal or instrumental, notwithstanding the strong
hints daily thrown out by a morning contemporary. The
public will and must take a final leave of the
building on Saturday, the 11th of October, when,
it will comfort our contemporary to know, any
spontaneous burst of harmony will not be pro-
hibited by the executive committee, but it must be
provided by the public, and not by the royal commissioners.
On the Wednesday following Prince Albert will attend,
when the report of the jurors will be read by Lord Causing.
To this his royal highness will respond in a short speech,
and in 10 minutes after the workmen will be admitted, and
commence the removal of the goods, and the preparations
for the dismantling of the Palace. On this occasion the only
persons admitted will be the exhibitors, and perhaps one or
two friends each, by ticket, the public, ticket holders and
all, being entirely excluded. This announcement we make
on the highest authority. The suggestion for removing the
Crystal Palace bodily to Battersea fields has created a good
deal of amusement among the habitu.4, especially those
who are at all acquainted with the winter aspect of thel
locality in question.
The Palace is already by no means impervious et top,
and if it were placed in a situation where two or three feet
of extra water might safely be calculated on at every spring
tide during winter, its public utility in a sanitary point of
view would become more than problematical. If it is to
be taken down to be rebuilt elsewhere, and to be made a
retreat fur poor invalids, in whch they may take air and
exercise, undeterred by the chilling blasts and damps
of winter, some site must be chesen above, not below hieh •
water mark. The police returns yesterday were 69,316.

PUBLICATIONS RECEIVED.

Tomes, by a Triaoher in BetAl.hem. Edinsl by JoIIN
PLIWIVAL, Esq., lion. Secretary to the "Alleged Luna-
ties Friend !Society." Effingham Wilson. This little
volume of poems has been published,for the liquifit of
their author, • gentleman of good family but little
means, and placed in the unfortunate position indicated
above. This is the most interesting fact connected with

them, although the poems thomselves are certainly slp;
nor to many of the so-called "sane " attempts we fre-
quently come across.
The Kix, and Me Abbot ; or Royal Caprice. An Historical
Operatic Drama, in Three Acts. Respectfully inscribed
to all Good Protestants. By T. NV rti.taws. The pre-
face informs us that Mr. Williams is the author of
"several vucAl compositions of celebrity." If the " King
and the Abbot " is not likely to attain a permanent place
in that flattering category, it is at any rate not unlikely to
attract some attention at the present period of papal as-
sumption and protestant indignation. The incidents of
the piece comprise the dawn of the Reformation, and
some interesting episodes in the life of Catherine Parr.
Good Night. Drawn by J. AlWilltk. W. E. Ramsay,
Brampton.—A very clever sketch, cleverly lithographed.
The subjeet will commend it to the attention of all pa-
rents, while the style of its execution must ensure their

praise.
We won't lire up the Bible.—God *are the Queen.—W. F
Itatusay.—Two loyal protestant pieces of music, published
at a moment when they arc likely to meet sympathising
purchasers.
Debt and Surplus : A Letter to Lord John Bowl/. S.
Johnson. A pamphlet, in which the writer years that
"capital outlays should always be made irom loans, and
never from taxes ; and that loans once contracted should
never be paid off; a corollary from which is, that a sur-
plus of revenue should he returned as soon as possible to
the pocked of the population, by being employed for ths
current ordinary expenditure, and taxes to the same
amount being abated in the ensuing year.

THE MARBLE ARCII.—The rapidity with which
the marble arch has been erected on the spot where Cum- 1
berland Gate stood at the top of Orifiird.street, is quite as-
tonishing. It is now all but finished, and, lwing nearl • •••
lauded of its scaffolding, the public have a Ent op
of forming an opinion of its 'effect.

LIEPAILTMENT.

Pinerics.—Where---plrie; are grown on the pot system,
shift such plants as require it into larger pac,, using three-
fourths peat for the youngest plants, and increasing the pro-
portion of loam as the plants advance towards the fruiting
state. If the bottom heat is supplied by fermenting ma-
terial, it will require to be frequently examined, to sue that
the heat does nut decline, and thereby clock the plants while
in an active growing state. Equal caution will he necessary to
Prevent an excessive ur burning heat, which r ill materially
injure the roots, and probably throw the plants into fruit,
whether they are wanted or not. The object should be to
maintain, in all cases, a steady bottom heat of OU deg. or 84
deg. A little air at the back should be left on night gild
day, excepting in frosty or windy weather, and Mr an hour
or two on fine afternoons, when the pits are closed and
syringed. Assist pine-apples whose fruits are swelling,
with clarified liquid manure, but give no water or any
kind after they begin to change silour. The manure
water should be made in a tank, and clarified by adding
!some lime or tears- charcoal; as soon as the liquid has
become clear, it should be drawn off into a second tank,
the top of which is nearly on is level with the button'
of the other one. Figs—Let the amount of air to figs
in progress be gradually increased, using the syringe
in tine weather to keep the red spider down ; but
'it is necessary to avoid excessive use of this Meru-
' mmt, at too much moisture frequently causes the swelling
fruit to turn Nark and full off. An equable moderate shit,
of moisture should be maintained about the routs, as the
Lune misfortune not unfrequently results from extremes of
drought and moisture. Stop the young growths at the
fourth or filth eye, by breaking (not cutting) the points out,
as they du not, it broken, bleed so much• .♦s the stopping
of the young shoots goes on, look carefully into the +tato of
the older wood ; and where they stand too thickly to admit
of the healthy development ol• the foliage, remove a few at
a time of those shoots which seem the least likely to be
fruitful. This will be carrying out the principle of summer
pruning, or rather thinning, to the fullest extent; and with
!no tree is it more requisite. It is, however, important that
it be done gradually, otherwise it will muse much bleed-
ing. We may remark here, that figs have generally too
much root room. They bear last when un a shallow soil,
resting on chalk, or when the routs artico.

VI.OWAIL OAIll)V4 AND ANlL('AiiitillEA

Those who do not possess a mincient extent of glass
frames for the propagation of verbenas calceolarias and
other half-hardy bedding plants, may make a splendid dis-
play by maws of the more durable annuals, sown in the
plans in which they are to remain. It is not to be ex-
pected that their beauty will Ise as permanent as that of
the plants fur which they arc substituted but with proper
exereise of taste in arranging them, the result will he much
more satisfactory than many suppose. For white beds
I use clarkia pulchella alba, mmophila atrmaria, or white
Virginian stock ; for pink or rose colour, clarkia p. roams.
II saptinaria cidahria, or ruse Virginian stork; for yellow or
o•range, few things make a more aplendid bed than each-
wholtsia for summer and early autumn ; but if it be more
desirable to make ;I late autumn display, the different varieties
of marigolds are excellently adapted fur the purpme, although
as their peculiar odour is not in general esteem, they should
not be planted too close to walks which are much fre-
quented. If the situation is wit too shady, the common
Mimnlus mosehatus is well adapted for a compact dwarf
I bed of yellow. For blue beds use Neinophila insignis. Lu-
I aus nanus, the late blue Forget-meamt, or the beautiful
but rather Mane Centamea depresaa. For dwarf scarlet
beds, Verbenas or Geraniums are indispensable, but a taller
bed may lie made of Pentstemon gentianuidea; the different
varieties of Antirrh. in magus are al., very useful, parti-
cularly the dwarf early-flowering double-white variety; the
taller and later kinds may easily be made dwarlir by peg-
-9 ging them down. For a purple bed, nothing surpasses the
branching Larkspur, if raked front seed on a border
planted out 12 inches apart, and pegged down twice during
the growing season. The other annuals mentioned above
may be sown at once in their places, and thinned out to
proper distances. Musk and Forget-me-not are hardy
perennial plants, as are also the Antirrhinums and Pent-
stemmas in most parts of the country. The time for
sowing annuals must he regulated by the period at which
the greatest display will be most useful ; and us this will
generally vary trout the middle of June to the middle of
September, the SKI'S should be suwu from the middle of
March to the end of June. 1

COMMERCIAL AND MARKETS.

WEEKLY SUMMARY OF THE PRODUCE
MARKETS.
MINCISG-/ANE SATMTAT MORNTNO.

•
The colonial markets continue very quiet, and the amount
of business transacted hits been rather limited. The public
sales of swat have not been large, and privately very littlu
has been offered ; prices, however, have in some instants
declined fully 6d. per cwt. Since the result of the first
Dutch sale of Coffee, held at Amsterdam on the 10th inst.,
Juts become known here, the market has improved, and
more demand exists : Native Ceylon has advanced to 475.,
and the Plantation kinds have changed hands at Is. to 2s.
inr cwt. rise upon the quotations of this day week. The
ferior descriptions of Madras Rice have been sold on
rather lower terms ; and in Saltpetre only the good descrip-
tions have realised former rates. The Tea market is quiet,
awaiting the unloading the late numerous arrivals from
China.
