SCOTLAYD.

EDINBURGH, SEPT. 11.
The Glasgow authorities have issued a proclama-
tion to paupers prohibiting them from selling any
part of the victuals supplied to them by the parochial
boards, and from buying spirituous liquors. Pro-
vision dealers are also cautioned against purchases
from paupers, and heavy penalties are quoted against
those who are accessary to the placing of undeserving
persons on the roll. For independent poverty some-
thing is also doing. The new lodging-houses in Gies-
gow have been successful, and are to be instituted in
different parts of the city. In the original establish-
ments beds are furnished for 3d., and breakfast and
sapper for 2d. From the end of June to the end of
August, the inmates have been, males, 2,399; females,
152; married couples, 113; and the numbers are
steadily increasing.
An animated discussion is going on between the
Scotsman and the secretary of the Board for Highland
Destitution, the gist of which may be gathered from
the Scotsman's own summary.
The people will not work if by cheating or ,lulling they can avoid
it ; the local either aid or abet, or show themselvea power-
less to prevent; a great deal of stave, waste, and demoralmition,
have csirte I all along; and • very vigilant and active inspectorship
has not been able to prevent these evils from continuing and in-
crewing. The quesilon now is, shall this nyatem be resumed nest
year and for several years I—for the funds is hand are sufficient for
three years' expenditure even at the rate of the present year. That la
a liiivstion on • hich we have more to nay, sad m the ultimate deter-
ini.tion of which the public, we do not doubt, will insist on having a
more potential voice than come people intend to allow them.
The threatened continuation of the diatribe will
tend to secure the certainty of a government commis-
, sion of inquiry being appointed, and it will require
all the omnipotence of such a body to lay bare the
social evils of the highland population—but there can
be no doubt that a well digested report will expose
matter of deeper moment than squabbles between
lazy dolts and utilitarian ins The reports on
sites have somewhat pre the public mind for dis-
closures regarding v age and serfage, which will
show that the tenantry are not alone to blame, and
that highland;as well as Irish, landlords, must be
reminded somewhat in detail of the relative rights of
property. Some highland usages will be assailed
from another quarter. The Edinburgh association
for protecting roadways intend commencing a corre-
spondence with the proprietor of Glen Tilt, and it is
possible that the noble duke may have to make good
his title to road-closing before a court of law. All
Scotch proprietors are not like his grace of Atholl,
and, as a striking counterpart to his exclusiveness, it
deserves to be mentioned that Mrs. Fergusaon of
Dirleton, East Lothian, throws open her extensive
property to the public, and allows her numerous
tenantry to kill game when they have a mind.
A public meeting is to be held in Peebles on the
17th inst., for the purpose of taking steps for the
effectual prevention of fictitious votes in that and other
counties. The Witness says that the greater portion of
the voters expungeed from the register held life rents
over properties belonging to the present member,
Lord fraquair (who had forty-eight votes on one farm
yielding 500/. a year), and other two proprietors, for
which the life-renters granted bills not yet paid, for
amounts varying from 1501. to 2001. In the cases,
some twelve or fourteen, where the rents had been
paid, the parties were allowed to remain on the roll.
'Die proceedings of the registration court are to be
published at length.
The University of Edinburgh opens its sessions on
Ist of Nov. Except the vacancy in the Hebrew chair,
caused by the resignation of Dr. Brunton, and which
will be filled up before the session commences, the
class list presents nothing new. Did the patrons and
senators rightly discern the signs of the times, they
' would institute a chair for civil engineering. The
High School is moving, Dr. Schmitz, the rector,
having contrived to add music sad the elements of
natural science to the curriculum.

It is always pleasing to notice redactions in taxa-
tion, and doubly so in the case of penal imposts. The
prison assessment for Glasgow is to be 2d. per pound
this year instead of 3d ,as formerly. Partly, the re-
daction has been effected by the increased returns
from prison work—that item having this year been
augmented to the extent of 300/. The Glasgow
authorities are also taking steps to increase the num-
ber of public wells.
A usage prevails in England with respect to the
law of entail, which, not existing in Scotland, requires
to be explained to readers south of the Tweed. It is
thus referred to in last number of the North British
' Review :—" In England the statute law of entail is
nearly as strict as that of Scotland, but the judges,
from an inveterate hostility to a system so monstrous
and injurious, have encouraged all methods by which
it could be evaded, and in this way a fiction of law has
been converted into a most effective reality, whereby
the ' tenant in tail,' may dock ' or put an end to
the entail when he pleases. No such method exists
in Scotland of restricting the perpetual existence of
an entail once completed."

ESTATE OP KINTAIL.—AIes. Matheson, E-$(1. of A.rdrosa,
M.P. for the Inverness burghs, has just purchased the fine
baronial estate of Kintail—an importantaddition to thelarge
extent of landed property already acquired by that gentle-
man in the county of Rose.
DUCAL Fees.—At a meeting of the Perth town council,
Bailie Barlu stated that heavy fees were exacted by the
Duke of Atholl from every one who visited the Dunkeld
grounds, and that the whole of these fees went into the
duke's pocket. He (Bailie Barisal was certain there was not
another duke in Scotland did the like. " There fees," adds
the Advertiser, "are as follow One person. 2s. 6d.; two
persons, 3s, ; and a shilling a head for any greater number.
A gentleman told us on Monday, that be had lately paid 7s.

RIOHT or WAT.—A subscription has been set on foot
(says the Aberdeen Journal), in aid of which the public are
invited to come forward, and to support their claim to a
pathway on the south side of the River Don. Lord James
flay has issued an interdict, prohibiting the public front
using this pathway, which he claims as private property.
At a meeting of the town-council of Old Aberdeen, on Fri-
day last, a motion was made that the council shoed give
101. to waist in defending the right of way through Seaton
Park. The council, however, negatived the motion without
a division.

singularly original and brilliant. There has likewise been
found among the correspondence which Dr. Chalmers car-
ried en with nearly all the distinguished men of the present
century a number of letters of a deeply interesting nature,
sufficient to make, with a memoir of himself, four large
octavo volumes. The whole of the rev. gentleman's manu-
scripts have been bought by Mr. Thomas Constable, brother-
in-law of Mr. Cowan, the new member fur Edinburgh, and
Ban of Mr. Constable, the friend of Sir Walter Scott. Mr.
Constable has given the enormous sum of 10,0001. for Dr.
Chalmers' manuscripts—a sum, we believe, much greater
than was ever before given for the posthumous works of an
author. The largest amount ever given, under similar cir-
cumstances, was 4,5001., which Mr. Murray stave to the suns
of Mr. Wilberforce for his " Life and Correspondence.

ILLCATHATIONS OF POLITICAL ECONOXT. The bell-
man of Arbroath lately intimated to the inhabitants to re-
frain from purchasing the 41b loaf until its price avn equi-
valent to that of flour. At the time the announce-

meat was made, the best flour was retailing at 2s. 4d.
per atone, and the loaf at 841, The inhabitants being
determined to resist paying Bd., when the very finest
at the west-end of London is only 7d., took the above slaps
in order to bring the bakers to their senses. A meeting of
the muter bakers was therefore held, when it was resolved
to reduced it to id. Having been successful, the nest move
was to obtain a reduction in the prices of dairy and other
farm produce. Accordingly the Denman was again put in
requisition, intimating is all thrifty housewives to i,betain
from purchasing butter or eggs until such time as the pries
of the commodities were equalised with other Mar, s. Dairy-
maids looked aghast, hen-wives were contemplating .lscapi-
tation to their feathered brood; but, when the psnic had
reached its climax, a my of hope again enlivened than, by
the bellman announcing that the public were most respect-
fully informed that the farmers, taking all things into ionsi-
deration, had resolved for the future to refrain from <ending
either eggs or butter to the market until parer . re-
quested to do ea.—Dundee ..4doertiser.
LIFTING A House. Last week the fahel...thnts of
I Port Gordon witnessed the application of the snethaniaal
powers to a purpose of rather a novel description. A.mer-
chant, finding his large two-story fish-caring house to be
inconveniently situated, resolved upon having it removed to
a more suitable locality, at the distance of 201) yard. from its
former site ; and the fabric being of lath and plaster, it oc-
curred to him that its removal might be effected moat expo-
ditiensly and economically by procuring the assistance of 80
or it/ hands, and at once raising it entire, whinh was actually
accomplished is the space of an hour, without the slightest
damage to the house, or the least injury to any person con-
cerned in its removal.

ANOTHER DETERMINED ATTEMPT ATSUICIDE.—A female
engaged is a public work at Anderston, Glasgow, having
been discharged from her employment on account of some
misconduct, resolved upon destroying herself. The poor
creature bad set her mind upon death by poison. but in
order to effect this, she found it necessary to have recourse
to the pawnbroker, and she actually pledged a portion of her
clothes for threepence, with which she purchased firs: one ,
pennyworth of laudanum, which she drank, then • es fond,
and these doses not proving immediately effectual, the lut
penny was expended on the drug in order to accelerate her
death. She was found in • dying state, and the cause of her
illness having been ascertained, the stomach pump was ap-
plied, and she is now nearly recovered.

SHIPWRECK' ANI) Lois OF LIFE.—IR the teening
of Saturday last, the 11th inst., during n heavy Ri.le from
the WSW., in Carnarvon Bay, five persons met a Fr( mature
death. Two vessels, one a yacht, the other a schooner, were
seen on the afternoon of that day out in the bay. The
yacht signalled for a pilot to crow the bar, and proved to be
the Gem, the property of J. Fleming, Esq., member of the
Royal Yacht Squadron. In consequence of the d.stance
from the station, she did not wait for the pilot's but
exchanged one of her own bands for the mate of the other
vessel, who was to act as her pilot. The schooner proved
to be the Vine, of Pwllheli, bound with a cargo of coal from
Llanelly, in South Wales, to Bangor. From some cause or
other, perhaps the darkness of the eveping, the schooner, in
attempting to pass the bar, some time between five and
seven o'clock, into the Menai Straits, struck on LI., north
bank, must have immediately capsized, filled and suck with
all on board. The pilots belonging to the station at Llanildwyn
went out in the life boat, but, owing to the extreme dark-
ness, and the schooner showing no light, they were usable to
find out her position until day-break on Sunday morning,
when having discovered her, they pulled out for the T....rpose
of boarding. She was on her beans.ende, with her masts
imbedded in the sand. In the cabin the dead body of a
woman passenger was found, and on the bank the lady of
a man was discovered ; and both were immediately taken to
Carnarvon, there being signs of life in the man. Four other
men, the remainder of the crew, perished. The Gem arrived
sate over the bar with the Vine's mate on board.

r EXPLOSION OF OAS ON BOARD A CoLLlEß.—Yester-
day intelligence reached Lloyd's that the schooner, Flirt, of
Plymouth, 179 tons, about to sail with a cargo of crcds from
Cardiff to Barcelona, bad been blown up on the r.th inst.
whilst lying alongside the dock at Cardiff; by an explosiets of
gas in the hold, which carried away the entire sleek from
the main hatch forwards. The rigging and sails erre also
fired. and before it could be extinguished the schoor.ir was
rendered a complete wreck. Fortunately the crew were
principally ashore at the time; had they been in their berths
in the forecastle, their destruction was inevitable.

HER MAJESTY'S EXPECTED VISIT TO FLEETWOOD.
At the time the express train left Manchester yesterday
evening it had not been ascertained positively I y the
directors of the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Com-
pany (at present lessees of the Fleetwood railway and &eke)
whether her Majesty would touch there; but Mr. H.
Houldsworth, chairman of the company, and Mr. Hawks- •
hard, the engineer, bad left Manchester yesterday morning
to meet Capt. Beechey, R.N., of the royal tupradron, and in
the event of its being certified that her Majesty would re-
turn that way, tkey would stay to make arrangemerts for
the reception of the royal party. The company are patron-
ising a grand regatta at Fleetwood, which is to take pare on
Thursday and Friday, the days on which her Majesty :s ex-
pected to arrive and it is expected that, from the company
likely to he attracted by the two events, Fleetwood ‘M be

JENNY LIND AT LIVERP6OL.—MadIIe. Jenny Lind
lodged', during her engagement in this town, at the ccener of
Danaing:street and Rope-street. The fair syren, though she
has received homage enough to turn the head of one possess-
ing less good sense and firmness of character, shrinks front
popular applause save such as she wins in the exercise of her .
profession ; hence she has a great repugnance to lodgie.g at
hotelq, and uniformly endeavours to bailie public earl, tity as
to the whereabout of her temporary location. Diving her
short sojourn in Liverpool she rose early and took Pr ~:ent
exercise on horseback, cantering out into the country
beyond the southern suburbs of the town. It was
well for her that her domicile was not known. The
inquiries respecting her location were numerous ; and
many individuals called at the Adelphi to iaquire resputing
her whareabout. Under the impression that she put up at
that hotel, crowds assembled around the doors at the time
she was expected to proceed to the theatre, yr to return
from it. On two occasions ladies who were set down late
at night from their carriages, which they had bro:ght
with them by railway, were treated to loud cheers, the
populace being each time impressed with the idea that
the renowned Jenny was before them. During the two
nights of her performance Williamson-square was crowded
with people, and Murray-street, into which the stage door
opens, was almost impassable. Oa Wednesday night a
multitude of people surrounded the carriage, which was
waiting at the stage-door, and when the celebrated voca-
list entered it, she was saluted with cheers, loud, hearty,
and long-continued. Though the carriage drove off at •
rapid rate, a hundred or two admirers held on by it and
by each other, and accompanied it to the lodgings of the fair
contatrier, where the cheering was renewed. The receipts
of the house on blonday night amounted to 1,6001.; oa
Wednesday they only reached half that sum. The total
receipts in Liverpool, therefore, were 2,8001. Jenny, we be-
lieve, received 5001. per night, Balfe 501. per night, and
Oardoni 501. per night. The theatre wan let to Mr. Knowles
for the moderate sum of GS/. per night, including the ser-
vices of the musicians. scene-shifters, and all other auxilia-
ries. If we suppose Lablache to have had 251. per night,
and the cost of the other vocalists to have been al. per
night. Ind allow in addition 501. per night for extra inci-
dental expenses, the total outlay for Liverpool was 1,4961.,
which, deducted front the receipts, leaves for Mr. Knowles
the very pretty profit of I,2l4l.—Liverpool AMion.
A NEW BEICK-MAKING MACIUNE has recently been
patented by a Liverpool firm. The clay, without any pre-
vious preparation, is put into the machine, where, by the
action of two sets of cutters, it is prepared and carried
forward by the ad of buckets or elevator', and deposited
into a hopper. It then descends upon a revolving table set
with dies, into which it falls, and, after being closely pressed,
is driven, by a slight movement of the machinery, to the
surface of tie table again, from which it is taken by the
carriers. The bricks are then ready, without any further
process, for the kiln, saving all the time necessary in the
ordinary method of preparation in the pit, and drying on
the ground. Shrinkage is thus considerably lessened, and
the article, it is sail. it of more perfect shape, and such
superior to those completed in the ordinary manner. It is
calculated that the machine, which completes two at the
I same time, will turn out on an average thirty per minute.

EARLY SIGNS eP WINTER.—The weather in the
high region of the Peak has during the past week been en-
asesively cold, with, heavy rains and wind. On Saturday
ofternoon a alight-scow shower fell on the heights nest
Glossop, and was suomeded by a sharp hail storm. During
the sight there was a very keen frost, and the weather was
wry ungenial on Seadsy, but seemed more premising as
Monday, as the barometer was on the rise. A fell of mew,
me the summer months have passed, is remarkable, and each
a circumstance hu not been laperienced for very many
wars. The shepherds observe that the sheep keep low down
la the valleys, and as near home as possible, both which cir-
cumstances are considered prognostics of an early and severe
winter.

CAMBRIDORSHIRE.
PAST AND PRESENT CONDITION OP TIER Freres.—The
geed effects of drainage are thus referred to in the Cam-
bridge Independent Prise of Saturday It is worthy of
remark (says the editor of that journal) that the tonnage
upon which dues were paid in the port of Wisbech during
the 12 months ending August 31, 1847, is more than three
times the amount it was in 1829, the amount in that year
being 65,040 tons, and in 1847, 167,443 tons. This greet
increase is directly referable to the opening of the Nice
Outfall, which took place in 1830, and from which period a
steady increase is observable to the present time. In the
year 1831 it nee to 71,037 ; in 1835, to 90,152 ; and in 1819,
to HOMO ; in 1840 it had risen to 122,094; and in 1843
to 159,678; end in the year just ended, to 167,443.

NORFOLK.
A TREE FOR SEA-SIDE PLANTATIONS:-.HOIkbROL
the seat of the Karl of Leicester, has been hitherto known
to the public chiefly for its %rhenium, and the hospitality
of itsowners. Ilea of all contria have been here to learn
the arts of rearing the best breeds of cattle, and of turning
the mil to the belt account ; end no one doubts that the ex-
amples here given have been the means of stimulating many
thenghout the world to carry out similar improvements.
Then is, however, an additional lesson very legibly displayed
ben which p ' would do well to attend to—l mean
Its hinting. Trees anywhere, in good land even, are
trtemplis ; they are looked upon as such in rich shel-
tered valleys, on slopes with mountain, at their back ;
bat to have them of commanding stature, in defiance
of every obstruction, soil, situation, climate (a biting
sea air in this instance), is en achievement which ought at
least to be noted and commended to all who have lands
sinellarly si•uated. The late Sir F. Buxton took the hint,
and sot the least of his legacies was a series of thriving
plantations stretched along the side of the German Ocean at
Bunton and Triminghaes.—Holkham "on en open
barren estate, was planned, planted, built, decorated, and
inhabited in the middle of the 18th century." Such is the
record over the entreat» door in the hall. Ceres and Syl-
venue have now their temples here ; and it would be diffi-
colt Indeed to find an estate over which corn fields and
woodlands are mon judiciously interspersed. The sal*
of the timber alone realises about 4,3001. yearly.—The
chief object of this notice is to draw the attention of
land proprietors who have poor lands near the sea to armed
feature at this seat, caused by the introduction of the mer.
glom ask (owners iks ). It is here, as a timber tree, meg-
Memt beyond example in this county, and in the grated
profusion. Its appearance in the Holkbam woods prone
*weddings-1, that the tree is well suited to dry exposed
molls within the influence of the sea air ; and, 2dly, that on
chalk bottoms it is entitled to a place beside the beech. In
the Obelisk Wood here, a great part of which is on chalk,
it is in several instances intermixed with the common
English oak, which it surgeons both in height and
bulk, growing luxuriantly after the latter has ceased to
nein. The whole sylvan picture at this seat forms a pro-
fitable study. The lesson is that this great woodland,
its beauty, the shelter it gives to bleak leads, and the
splendid revenue derived from it, may be repeated elsewhere
diligence and perseverance. Nature is the same to
all without diatinotioa ; and if we find her in any instance
a richer sad more valuable garb than the displays
resertier lands similarly circumstanced, it is only because
her favours have been in that instanw sought in a more
liberal glint. Draining, sulsoiling, and manuring, are
among* the petitioners whom she always answert—Gor-
