long been comfortably frizzling away in the latter
agreeable predicament. It must have been welcome
intelligence, therefore, to the great mass of society in
the United Kingdom, to learn that Her MAJ ESTY'S
Ministers are about to submit a project for the re-
vision of taxation to the careful scrutiny of the newly-
elected Parliament. Scarcely less welcome
intelligence than it was to us Free-traders, that all
the idle heartburnings of so many years, were about
to be put an end to by the formal abandonment of Pro-
tection by the leaders of the now dominant Govern-
, ment.

Another reflection—forming a corollary to this
avowed recognition of Free-trade, and their promised
revision of taxation—will be grateful to the hearts of
the multitude, as reminding them of the ultimate cer-
tainty of good resulting from the toils of the
Administration. It cannot for an instant be
forgotten, that unless the present rulers of the
British Empire are equal in every way to the
imminence of the occesion, unless they fully
appreciate the requirements of the age, unless they
manfully adopt (as well as admit) the Free-trade
system as inevitable, unless they revise the system of
taxation justly and accurately—they must inevitably
fall from office, in obedience to the law of political
gravitation. Without the essentials of modern States-
manship, they will very speedily find slipping even
from their most tenacious grasp, the delicate and com-
plicated reins of the Government.

BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great effi-
cacy of this medicine :
" 157, New Bond-street, London, October 12, 1850.

" Sir,—ln acquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex-
perienced by taking BLAIR'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS,
I feel that I am but performing a duty to that portion of the public
who may be similarly affected.
" About twenty years since I was first attacked by rheumatic gout
in my hands and feet. I had previously been subjected to every va-
riety of climate, having served in Canada in the 19th Dragoons, and
in Spain, under Sir John Moore, in the 18th Hussars. I always pro-
cured the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief,
and my sufferings can be appreciated only by these who know some-

THE VICISSITUDES OF TEN YEARS.

We are astonished when we contemplate the
changes which have been effected in the course of ten
years 1 How rapidly the sweeping tide of time rolls
on! The morning of life passes off like a dream,
and we look round in vain for the companions of
our youthful days. Where are the gay, the beau-
tiful, the happy, with whom we once sported in the
sprightliness of youth and buoyancy of enjoyment ?
They were here; we knew them; we loved them;
we rejoiced with them down time's sunny stream
with pleasure's fragile bark; but where are they
now ? Alas, they have gone before us ; the whirl-
wind of death drove them rapidly onward, and they
are sailing on eternity's wide, shoreless sea. The
scenes of our childhood, too, fade away, and soon not
a vestige of them is left as a token that they have
existed. Time's stupendous wheel is ever rolling on.
Ten years more, and where will we be P Our present
friends, our present companions, will they still be here ?
N. o; they may be scattered far away, strangers, and
in a strange land. Ten years, and the aspect of things
to many, very, many, will be changed. The pale, ema-
ciated, miser, that now bends over his useless gold
(the wreck of ruined families, and the last remains of
forlorn wretchedness), where will he be ? He and
the beggar whom he drives from his door, will have
gone to their long homes ; his wealth will have passed
into other hands. Ten years, and the student who is now
poring over volumes, and seeking with such avidity
for knowledge, will have acquired, and perhaps for-
gotten it. The lovely maiden, whose mind and per-
son are just matured—she is beautiful—she is happy
—pleasure beams in her countenance, and joy sparkles
in her eye; with a light foot and lighter heart, she
steps upon life's stage but alas ! ten years and this
lovely being will be indeed changed; the bright,
fascinating smile no longer plays upon her cheek ' • her
once laughing eye speaks deeper of misery now than
ever it did of pleasure. Ten years, and what is now
beautiful will have faded like the morning flower.
Ten years, and many that sport in the sunshine
will
prosperity, will be wrapped in misfortune's gloomiest
c
shad. Ten years, and the man of business
settled his "final accounts," the fool will have grownaye
wise, and the wise will have discovered his ignorance.
The atheist will have found out his mistake, and the
Christian will have realised bis 'Towne. '

The Austrian Correspondence says that the reason of
the English Government dispatching 9,000 troops to
Herat is, that it views with suspicion the occupation of
that fortress by the Persians, and wishes to re-establish
its independence.

the language it uses relative to the President of France.

laws of the States are so framed that no protection is
extended to the negro against the ruffianism or
sensuality of the master. He may murder them
rt leisure—or burn them before a slow fire, or im-
pale them—the testimony of fellow slaves is aot taken
in the courts of law, and no other eyes witness the assas-
sination—or the rape, as the case may be. We are, we
confess, surprised and disgusted at the attempt made by
Mrs. Stowe to salve the wounded self-love of her
countrymen, even at the risk of their taking refuge
in ethical subtleties, to break down clear and moral
distinctions, by taking of the " white slaves of Eng-

vindicate his rights against them. He may do what
he likes, speak what he thinks, go where he pleases,
without let or hindrance, serve others, or be his own

the ignorant, will often confer upon them a power to
be abused to their own hurt. " Set a beggar on
horseback and he may ride to the devil." But is it
any reproach to our peers and men of property that
there is misery among masses over whom the law gives
them no control? or is it any argument against hu-
man liberty, that it permits a licentiousness which
may be pernicious to those who have not the faculty
of self-control? The very attempt to draw a parallel

LAMBETH.
A middle-aged female, of gipsy appearance, was
placed at the bar on the following charge of im-
position :

Sarah Stamp, a simple-looking country girl, deposed
that on Saturday last the prisoner, at about one
o'clock in the afternoon, came in front of her master's
house and stood opposite the kitchen window, and, be-
lieving her to be in want she gave her some broken
meat. While doing so the prisoner asked if she wished her
fortune told, saying she would tell lirr fortune truly.
She (witness) at first refused to have her fortune told,
but the prisoner having repeatedly pressed her, and
declared she would tell ber nothing but the truth, she
consented to give her a sixpence to have her fortune
told. The prisoner then came down into the area,
and, pulling out some cards, told her (witness) to put
a sixpence on one of them. The prisoner also said
the witness must hold 4s. 6d. in her hand, and she did
so. After a little, the prisoner said she must put the
money on the cards, and on her doing so, she (the
prisoner) took it, and put it into her mouth.
Witness asked her for the money, but the prisoner
said she could net give it her back until
after three o'clock, as she had to take it to her
master, Mr. Churchill, that she hail a licence

to go about telling fortunes, and that she had a half-
sovereign for a girl at Clapham•common, who had
called a policeman to give her into custody for impos-
ing on her by telling fortunes ; but she presented her
licence to the constable, who on seeing it told the
girl she must be the loser of the money. The pri-
soner then went away, and she saw nothing more of
her until Tuesday, when she called again, and asked
her for 4s, more, saying that she wanted that amount
to make up the half-sovereign for the young woman
at Clapham, and that she should return and pay her
the Bs. 6d. Witness, feeling a dread and horror at
the awkward position she had placed herself in, gave
her the four shillings, but subsequently communi-
cated the whole of the circumstance to her master,
and on her calling that day, at twelve o'clock, the
prisoner was given into custody. In reply to the
questions of the magistrate the witness said that the
prisoner told her her fortune, which was " that a
dark woman was very envious of her ;" that she must
be aware of this "dark woman," and that she would
shortly receive a letter with some money.
Mr. ELLIOTT remarked that there was no class of
offenders productive of more evil than that to which
the prisoner belonged, and commited her to the tread-
mill for three months.

TURKEY.

By advices of the 13th ult., from Constantinople,
we learn that the English screw-steamer Arabia ran
aground in the roadstead of Smyrna, but had been
towed off by the Turkish frigate Feizi Barri. A
new committee of Ulernahs had been formed to
examine into the dispute about the Holy Sepulchre.
The Greek clergy found their claims on a grant made
them by the Caliph Omar. The French adduce
subsequent treaties of 1740. The Hungarian rene-
gades have received permission to leave Turkey.
They will go to Alexandrette, and thence, on board,
an English vessel, to America.

COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.
REPORTS ON THE STATE OF THE BOMBAY MARKETS,
FROX THE 17TH NOV. TO THE 2D DEC. INCLUSIVE.
THE MONEY MARKET. .

Although money cannot be said to be in any great
demand, Government and other securities still show a
downward tendency, chiefly, we imagine, in consequence
of the unsettled state of matters in the Bazaar, where
considerable apprehension and distrust prevail regard-
ing the Marwarrie Shroff3.
There is little to be said on the general state of the
market during the last fortnight. Large arrivals of
cotton piece goods and yarn have taken place. The
sales, we are happy to say, have been correspondingly
large, prices having on the whole been tolerably well
