SALT TRADE OF THE NEGROES.

Cada Mosto was informed that there was a place
called Tegazza, about six days' journey from Iloden,
where large quantities of salt were dug up every
year and carried on camels to Timbuctoo, and thence
• to the empire of Melli, belonging to the negroes.
On arriving there the merchalits disposed of their
salt in the course of eight days, and then returned
with their gold. Ile was assured, that in the
countries under the equator, certain seasons
of the year were so excessively hot, that the
blood of the inhabitants would putrify if it were not
for the salt, and they would all die. Front Melli
the salt was carried on men's heads to the border of
a certain water ; whether, sea, lake, or river.
Cada Mosto was unable to ascertain. When ar-
rived at the water side, the proprietors of the salt
placed their shares in heaps, in a row, at small
distances, setting each a particular mark on his own
heap; and this being done, the whole company
retired half a day's journey from the place.
Then the other negroes, who were the purchasers
of the salt, and who seemed to be the inhabitants
of certain islands, but who would not on any account
allow themselves to be seen or spoken with, came in
boats to the place where the heaps ofsalt were placed,
and after laying a sum of gold on each heap as its •
price, retired in their turn. When they were gone,
the owners of the salt came back ; and if the quan-
tity on the heaps was satisfactory to them, they took
it away and left the salt; if not, they left both and
withdrew again. "In this manner," says Cada
Mosto, " they carry on their traffic, without seeing
or speaking to each other; and this custom is very
ancient among them, as has been affirmed to me for
truth by several merchants of the desert, both Moors
and Azanhaji, and other creditable pet-amts.—hi.,

SURREY SESSIONS, OCT. 20.

This being the day appointed for licensing the
Theatres and other places of public amusement in
the county, of Surrey, the Court wits most mum -
rously attended" with the Proprietors, Lessees,

Mr, BARNWELL, us Counsel for the applicants,

words, " and other public entertainments," ex-
pressed in the Act, should he introduced into the
license, only for the purpose of protecting the Minor
Theatres front arty prosecution which might 'be in-
itituted against them by' other Theatres.. The
parties for whom he applied .had no intention of
conducting the pet forsuauces of the Theatre under
their mansgement in a manner different from that
which they had pursued fur a..period embracing the
time sanctioned by the Magistracy of the county.
Ilia clienta'had empowered him to give a pledge
that uo performances should take place different
from thoso usually exhibited, and that glt n. only
cilject \Val to guard themselves against Sower

DAVIS' STRAITS WHALE FISHERY.

The William and Ann, Smith (clean), from Davis'
Straits fishery (one of the ships said to have been lost),
clime into Leith harbour yesterday. Captain Smith left-
the Straits on the 80th ult., and made the land in the
uncoonnonly short period of ten days; he, however, does
not bring any' additional particulars of importance. He
states that when he came away he was only aware of five
by six vessels being left. Captain Marr, of the Boffin,
which was lost, cattle home in the William and Ana,
together with fourteen or fifteen seamen belonging to some
of , the wreaked yawls. The number of shipwrecked
Seamen on board of different ships amounted- to between
800 and,. 000. The William and Ann was beset for
some time in the ice, but the pressure being end on, she
resisted the crash, and has sustained no damage.
The 'William Tom Dannatt, and Zephyr, Ash, .with
five fish each, passed through Aberdeen hay on Wednesday,
from Davis' Straits, all well, fur Bulk

We tithjoin a list of the sliii►s lea at the Northern
Whale Fishery since' the year 1819, when they first

ment' whom they would set to Work. Could any
one assist them betier than this man, whose whole
life has been a tissue of corruption,—who, in giving

" Are, then, such men as wish to pledge the

Certainly not. Either we must believe that they
are not acquainted with the ordinary consequences
of a revolution and a change of dynasty, or we must
believe that the tidtireile to. the King contains crimi-
nal hopes ; and we are naturally inclined to suspect
of perfidy such a project when. we examine a little
the situation of France, Priests preaching for
Charles X. and the Duke of Bordeaux,—M. Gui-

placing his near relation as a Captain in the Muni-

not the people a right to mistrust the Ministry and

" Let mrdeclure then, that the proposition for the

" Benjamin Constant had- the' presentiment of his op-
preaching end. We bare ant forgotten the last words
which he pronounced at the Tribune. Permit me (ioid
he) to implore your indulgence, not for my principles, but
for the imperfections of a refotation hastily traced. As ,
regards the body, a shattered health, and the mind a pro-
found melancholy, have prevented me from causing them
to disappear. This melancholy, Gentlemen, I MAW per-
mit myself to explain to you. Many understand it ; many
share it. I have endeavonred to surmount these obstaelee,
to fulfil a duty, and my intention, at lean, is worthy of
indulgence.' These words, stamped with a touching me-
lancludy, produced on the Chamber and the public the

RADICAL.

The appointment of Lord LYNDHURST to
succeed Sir WILLIAM ALIIRANDeR as Chief Baron of the
Exchequer, is calculated to give satisfaction in more re.
'peels than one. The pension of the Ex-Chancellor will
thus be saved to the country, and no man is better calcu-
lated to give effect to the new plans than his Lordship from
his acknowledged ability as a Common-law Lawyer. We
trust no unnecessary delay will be interposed in the way
of this appointment, at a time like the present, when men
in whom the country can confide are so much wanted for
the Special Commissions. Chief Baron Autxattnart

Lord CLONBROCK has given, almost unasked,
reductions of 20 per cent, to such of his tenants of all
ranks whom he considered to have held too high, although
his lends ore set far beneath the average of the adjacent

1,4001. per annum.— Western Argus.

Lord ALTHORP gave notice that he should move on
Monday for a vote of credit for 1,800,0001. for the

enees with Marshal Boult and ?Atte, who most peremp.
torily assured them that they will receive no aid of coun-
tenance from France as long as their war is confined to
Holland ; and one of th se Belgians was di.tiuctly in-
formed that France would feel her own domestic industry
compromised by any junction with the Low Countries ;
every persuasive argument was, at the same time, used
to induce an amicable compromise between Belgium and
Holland: Marshal Soult is fast re-establishing the mili-
tary force of France ; but it is strictly, and I believe truly,
declared to be a measure of national policy and precaution,
and great hopes are expressed that the new Government
of England will act most cordially with the King of the
French in maintaining the general peace of the world ;
but the elements of conspiracy, or in other words, resist-
ance to arbitrary power, are spreading so in Italy, as well
as in the north of Europe, that he must he a wise anti
hold man who can predict the vomits of pending proceed-
ings. Among the )oung and impatient portion of the
French people, any war which would afford chances of
promotion and excitement would, I have no doubt, be
popular, but with the King, the Government, and the
commercial classes, that fearful calamity is beheld with
just and revolting apprehensions, and thought still to be
avertible. Y.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE TIMES.

Sta,—Your intelligent correspondent, " Radical," has
overlooked the Board of Works : the absurdity of placing
a Lieutenant-Colonel as President over a Board of Archi-
tects, is too manifest to require any observation : 1,800/.
per annum may be saved in the abolition of this ap-
pointment.
There are two superannuated architects, with salaries of
500/. each, besides a commission of SI. per cent. on all
works under their direction : surely the salary may be
d spensed with on such liberal commission, the measuring
and making out the accounts being done by the clerks of
the Board of Works. I presume, on the demise of theiiii
bid gentlemen, it will not be expedient to supply their
planes, for one architect, with the present appointments of
Clerk of the Works (which, by the by, are almost sine-
cures), would be equal to execute all the Government
works. I should suggest that a Pali unentary return of
tie commission prid to each of the attached architects
since their appointment would be a useful document.
The Clerks of the Works should devote their whole
time to the service of the public, with their present salaries.

The Irish list amounts to 53,92 U. 41. 10d. Some of
the pensioha are dated as f.r hack as 1753. There are
about 487 pensioners on this list. It is impossible to state,
the number exactly, because some pensions are granted to
the "representatives" of particular individuals, while
others are given to the wife, widow, " and children,"
without enumerating the names or ntimaer of the children.
The following are selections from the 487 names :

CIVIL LIST PENSIONS.

The present Government has had the opportunity of
presenting a complete list of pensions on the Civil List in—
1, England; 2, on the Irish List ; and 3, on the Scotch
Pension List. It may be remembered that when this list
was called for during the celebrated discussions on the Civil
List at the commencement of the present memorable Ses-
sion, the application was at first resisted by the Olen Chan-
cellor of the Exchequer, Mr. Goulburn, on the ground
that such return never had been made to Parliament ; but

le list is now, for the first time, prepred, end " ordered

13 be printed."
The English list amounts to 70,010/. I Is. Some of

the petitions ore dated as far hack as 1784. Tt,ere are
others without date ; and respecting this circumstance
there is the following exp'anatory note at the end of this
list :—" In those( pensions where the date of the grant is
not given, the exact (late cannot be ascertained : those
pensions were all, however, granted previous to 1784."
There are 418 pensioners on this list. Some have more
than one pension, and some of the pensions are granted tor
three or four lives. To give the whole list is not very
practicable at tie present moment, interesting as it is ; but
as the lift has now escaped for the first time, some of the
pensions may be interestingly, if not instructively, named.
The following are select►ons

LAW REFORM.

The late popular Member for this county, (Lord
Brougham) now elevated to the highest situation in
which even his Sovereign could place him, has not
forgotten all his promises, but has taken the earliest
opportunity of bringing into Parliament his pro-
mised Bill, to render law in certain cases cheap, and
to bring the administration of justice near to every
man's door. In our Parliamentary report will be
found a tolerable outline of this excellent measure,'
which precludes the necessity of our entering into
any detail here. But there is one part of this mea-
sure we must not pass unnoticed,—a part, the esta-
blishment of which, if unaccompanied with any
other beneficial enactment, would entitle its author
to the everlasting gratitude of his countrymen. We
allude to that part of the Bill where the Noble Lotd
proposes to establish what he denominates courts of.
Reconcilement, and to invest his Judges with a
power of calling the litigants together, and examin-
ing them before each other: thus putting each of
them, us it were, in possession of the ease of his
adversary. We are fully persuaded that such a meL-
sure would put a stop in /indite to a majority of law-
suits, especially when the conciliatory advice of the
Judge is added, to calm the passions of the litigants,
and inform their judgment ; and when the ignorat cs
or selfishness of an interested attorney can have t o
power to lead them on.

But while we give to Lord Brougham the praise
his talents and his liberality so loudly claim, let us
not deny to another Noble Lord his deserved share
of commendation. Lord Wynford, in his retirement
from the bench, has also turned his attention to the
gross defects of usual law proceedings, and en-
deavoured to devise a remedy for one of its most
flagrant absurdities. We allude to the system of
special pleading, the only use of which, as far as we
could ever understand it, appears to be dreadfully to
lengthen, and strangely to mystify, every law-pro-
cess—to envelope a plain ,case in a dark cloud of
technicalities, and overwhelm poor common sense
with a world of hard and half-unmeaning words. We
heartily wish him success, as he would then not only
save time and expense to the suitors, but reduce the
process of law more to the level of common under-
standings, and prevent much of that chicanery which
often defeats simple justice, and gives to cunning
iniquity a lamentable triumph over honesty and
right. We should rejoice to see him go forward in
the same useful course, and endeavour to rid the
practice of the law of those multifarious fictions
which insult common sense, and render that an un-
intelligible mystery, which all are supposed to know
and understand : for no man is permitted to plead
ignorance of the law in extenuation of his error,
though even its most celebrated professors are
sometimes obliged to confess they do not clearly
understand it.— Wakefield Journal.

[ln further illustration of the contents of this return, it
may be remarked, that the debate on the question of the
Civil List, when the late Ministry were left in a minority,
took place on the 16th or November ; and the next morn-
ing—namely, on the 16th of November—they tendered
their resignations, which were accepted, and notified that
fact to both Houses in the afternoon of that day, adding,
that they only held office till their successors were ap.
pointed. Three of the pensions were dated on the 16th,
and the fourth on the 20th of November, four days after
their resignation.

and all other lishilities whatsoever, there will be a balance
in favour of the University, after making the above allow-
ance for unpaid instalments, amounting to 900/.
In addition to this balloter of 9,5004 the portion of the
laud opposite to the gate, which Is not wanted for the
purposes of the University, may, it is believed, be readily
sold for 10,0001., or may be let upon. building Items,
yielding a rent of 5001. per annum.
The regular expenses of the establishment, upon their
present scale, including an allowance for moderate addi•
times to the library and Museums, after the next Session,
are estimated at 1,500/. ; moles the receipts from students
this year have been within a trifle of 4,0001., the Pro-
prietors will see that, if there be no falling off in the
revenue, we have the moons of carry.img on. the University
for eeveral years. The increase m the receipt., which
may reasonably he anticipated in the next Session, fron.
the advance nude in the present Session, will probably
make the income, equal to the expenditure.
Mr. Huns warned the Proprietors not to believe,from
the statement, that the finances were flourishing. e re-
commended OHM to wait and see the reguler balance-sheet,
when it would be found that the University wee eating up
its capital at the rate of 1,0001. a year. ,
.Mr. OAKUM explained that there was no difference
whatever between size statement made by the Wanks and
Mr. Ifume's observation. The Warden's statement,
chewed diet the income of the Univeraity did not equal its
expenditure by 1,0001. per annum; but there were great
hopes, if the number ot students went on increasing as it
had done, that the Institution would soon cease to expend
its capital.
Thanks were than voted by acclarnetion to the Chair-
man, and the meeting dissolved.
