UNITED SERVICE JOURNAL.

This Number commences with a long article on
Egypt and Mehemet Ali, by a gentleman who had
made a protracted residence in the country, and who
had made the condition and prospects of the inha-
bitants and Government a subject of close investi-
gation. The description of the Viceroy, or rather
Sovereign of Egyptsand Syria, is minute and strik
inn, and though drawn by one who has no great
partiality for the Pacha, and who describes him as
shrewd and intelligent, though not a man of com-
manding talent or creative genius, it conveys to the
reader a high idea of his abilities and energy.
Nothing, he says, escapes him ; seated in his di-
van, he listens with apparent indifference to the idle
chat of those around him, but not one word escapes
his ears—not one useful suggestion is lost—and
sooner or later he adopts it for his own. The state
of the country—the increase of manufactures and
trade—the influence he possesses at Constantinople
—and the vast acquisitions which he has made in
a few years, independent of fifty other considera-
tions, are sufficient proofs that he is one of the first
men of the age. He found the country rude, bar-
barous, and a prey to factious or mutinous soldiery
—he has brought it within the pale of European
civilization—raised a powerful army and navy—
destroyed the army of his Sovereign—beguiled
from him his fleet—and, but for the great powers of
Europe, would be master of the whole Turkish do-
minions in a few months. No man in modern
times, save Bonaparte, has made such rapid strides
to power and dominion. "The Editor's Portfolio"
contains an attack, as might have been expected,
on the appointment cf Admiral Fleming, but though
he speaks of a " galaxy of glorious names which
live on the martial records of their country," and
who should have been preferred to the Scotchman,
lie does not point out one bright luminary in this
milky way. The Number altogether, however, is
very superior to some of its predecessors, and will
be read with interest by the class to whom it is
chiefly addressed.

THE CHURCHMAN.

It appears to us, and we are glad of it, that this
Magazine is a little more tolerant in its tone than it
has been of late. Controversialists should remem
ber that reason and argument are the only weapons
that will ever prevail in religious contests, and that
these are never so effective as;when wielded under the
influence of a spirit of meekness and charity. There
are several articles in this number directed against
the. Church of Rome, with a view to point out
her errors, and the superiority of her daughter the
Church of England. The former is a much easier
task than the latter, and is, therefore_ in some points
at least, much more successfully performed. " A
Vindication of the Church Establishment" is writ-
ten by some clergyman, who is as ignorant of human
nature as he is blind to the signs of the times.
" The Distinctive Character of the Roman Heresy"
is a complete misnomer. There is no generic distinc-
tion between the Roman, the Anglican, the Presbyte-
rian, or any other established heresy, These may
comprehend different doctrines, hut they are all ani-
mated by the same spirit. That spirit, the very
reverse of the spirit of the Gospel, has existed
ever since religion was wrested from the superin-
tendence of the Deity, and taken under the protec-
tion of the State, and will continue to exist until the
unhallowed connection be severed.

PHICAL MAGAZINE.
R. Taylor, Red Lion-court.

In this Magazine we find, as usual, a copious,
supply of scientific information, both in the form
of original papers, communicated by men of the
greatest eminence in their several departments, and
in that of interesting selections from the transac-
tions of the various Societies whose object is the
advancement of science, Dr. Faraday, Professors
Forbes and D. Morgan, Mr. Ivory, &c.
&c., are contributors to the present I<T,umber.
Dr. Faraday's " Researches in Electricity "
contain a most interesting account of the very
curious experiments which he has performed lately
with the gymnotus electricus, or electrical eel, and
important deductions drawn from them in regard to
the relations of the nervous and electric forces. A
communication from Dr. Forbes, of King's College,
Aberdeen, informs us that Mr. Robert Davidson,
of Aberdeen, has succeeded in making electro-
magnetism the moving power for turning a lathe,
and also for drawing a carriage, holuing two
persons, across a rough floor. The process is
stated to be exceedingly simple, but unfortunately
no details are given.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE

HATT ON-GARDEN.
SUNDAY TRADING.—Yesterday, Martha Marriott,
a poor widow woman living in King-street, Islington,
was charged with selling a penny cigar at ten minutes
before six o'clock on Sunday evening last.
The defendant pleaded guilty of so offending, and
urged, in extenuation, that she was not aware that there
was any law which rendered her liable to punishment
for so doing.—She was fined ss. and costs.
Edward Mitchell, tobacconist, of Albion-place, Pen-
tonvillc, was fined in the like sum for a similar offence.
John Partington, confectioner, of Islington, was ac-
cused of selling a penny bun at half-past nine o'clock
on last Sunday morning, and fined ss. and costs.
There were two other informations under the same
A.ct of Parliament, one of which was withdrawn, and
the other dismissed through informality.

TURNPIKE TRUSTS.

The Marquis of SALISBURY gave notice that on
an early day he would move for:a Committee upon the sub-
ject of Turnpike Trusts in England and Wales.
Lord BROUGHAMhopedthe Noble Marquis would con-
sider the propriety of introducing another subject, he meant
that of railways, which were the only recognised mode of
travelling. That was a subject which undoubtedly
called for the attention of the Legislature. They
were shortly going to have no horses at all to carry
them.—( A laugh.) And it was likely that unless cne in-
tended to travel three or four hundred milea a day, they
would not be able to travel at all, except by the waggons.

—(Renewed laughter.) He hoped his Learned Friend
would take into consideration the propriety of moving
for the appointment of a Committee upon that, as well as
upon the other subject. He believed there was a sum of
eight millions of money invested in these turnpike
trusts, and very often widows and orphans were depending
upon them for support. He knew one case in which an
income of 2001. a year had been reduced to 401., and he
believed there were many others who had been almost
reduced to beggary. Her Mak•sty's Government, without
violating any principle, could take offthe post horse duty.—
( Loud cries of " Hear bear.") Now, if they took off the
post-horse duty altogether (and if they did not take ;t off,

it would take itself off,) there would be no great generosity
in the act, and it would enable the Post-masters to keep
their heads above water a little longer. He thought that
the subject was worthy the attention of the Government
and his Noble Friend.

•
A NOBLE LORD on the Opposition benches observed that
hat was the business of the Chancellor of the Exchequer.
Lord BROUGHAM had no wish to undertake the task
_ _

himself—he was only desirous that his Noble Friend
should do it. If his voice could reach the Chancellor of the
Exchequer—if, by any possibility, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer could hear him, but which he would not do—
( A laugh)—for he was at his duty at tbe Exchequer, or at
his dinner, or in the othee-House of Parliament...but if he
did not give up the pcst-horse duty it would give him up,
and that was the only question.
The House then adjourned.

CORN-LAWS.

Sir GEORGE STRICKLAND presented a petition
from Ossett, in the West Riding of Yorkshire,
praying for a total repeal of the Corn-laws. The
petitioners stated that the British empire was mainly
dependent on commerce, and that that should be left
in a free state, as all articles of food and luxury were best
procured by free trade—that this country, on account
of the limited extent of its landed property, was depdont
on foreign countries for its supplies of corn, c 001,
silk, &e.--that the prosperity of manufacrtlvr...l com-
merce depended upon capital, skill, a price of
labour, and that the cost of labour in this cbtiptry had
been much higher than abroad, in cobsequenee of
which its manufacturers had to contend with great
disadvantages; thjat the mannfacturers of Great Bri-
tain had been hitherto prosperous, because other nations
were not able to compete with them ; but that these
foreign nations, during "the last twenty-three years,
had wisely brought themselves, in a groat degree,
upon an equality with those of Great Britain, in
their skill and the extent of their employment of capital,
and the latter bad begun to feel seriously the disadvantages
under which they laboured in consequence of the high
price of food—that the petitioners considered these laws as
restricting free intercourse, and tending to raise the price
of food ; and they prayed the House to extend to that
country the privileges of free trade, by removing all ob-
stacles thereto.

CORN-LA WS-NEWARK.

One of the largest meetings ever held in Newarl- this
day took place, (convened by the High Sheriff lor the
County, Webb Edge, Esq.), for the South Division of
the county of Nottingham, and is this moment (two
o'clock), concluded, by carrying an amendment in favour
of Repeal, although the Sheriff gave his decision in favour
of the original resolution.
This proceeding on his part was so decidedly contrary
to the fact, that a vote of censure was carried againat hint,
by at least six to one for his partial conduct.

INSANITY.

NVALID INSTITUTION.
The DENHAM-PARK Establishment of the Institu-
tion is open for the reception of persons of both sexes in the
upper walks of life suffering under mental disturbance or ner-
vous complaints, but who are still capable of appreciating the
blessings of social intercourse.
The invalids reside with the resident Medical Officer and
his lady as one united family. The visits of the usual Me-
dical Attendants and Friends are admitted at all times with-
out previous notice. The attendants are educated persons ; and
recreation and amusement provided on the most liberal scale.
Denham-park is a Proprietary Establishment, and managed
by a Committee of Gentlemen, and under the general surveil-
lance of its Vice-Patrons, Noblemen and Gentlemen, who
have no interest in the Institution but what is prompted by
a desire to benefit mankind.
The Resident Medical Officer is a member of the College
of Physicians, and has the sole direction of the medical treat-
ment of the invalids, and has no interest whatever in the
emoluments of the Establishment.

PAPERS ON EDUCATION.

(PRESENTED TO PARLIAMENT lIY HER MAJESTY'S COMMAND.)
Ordered, by the House of Commons, to be printed, Feb. 12, 1839
My Lord, Whitehall, Feb. 4, 1839.

I have received her Majesty's commands to make a communica.
lion to your Lordship on a subject of the greatest importance.
Her Majesty has observed with deep concern the want of instruction
which is still observable among the poorer classes of her subjects.
All the inquiries wbich have been made show a deficiency
in the general education of the people which is not in
accordance with the character of a civilized and Chrhtian nation.

The Reports of the Chaplains of gaols show that to a large number
of unfortunate pris mars a kowledge of the fundamental truths of
natura' and revealed religion has never been imparted.
It is some consolation to her Majesty to perceive that of late years
the zeal f. r popular education has increased, that the E.tablished
Church has made great efforts to promote the building of schools,
and that the National and British and Foreign School Societies have
actively endeavoured to stimulate the liberality of the benevolent
and enlightened friends of general education.
Still much remains to be done ; and among the chief defects yet
subsisting may be reckoned the insufficient number of qualified
schoohmsters, the imperfect mode of teaching which prevails in,
perhaps, the greater number of the schools, the absence of any suf.
ficient inspection of the schools, and examination of the nature of
the instruction given, the want of a Model-school which might
serve for the example of those Societies and Committees which
anxiously seek to improve their own methods of teaching, and,
finally, the neglect of this great subject among the enactments of
our voluminous legislation.

7The necessity of establishing Docks for affording additional
~ce°,Zrnodation to Steam-shipping frequenting the
.Port of
°nnon, has long engaged the attention of the Shipping Intel of the City. The alarming increase of accidents arising
'rrta the influi of Stea.m-vessels into the Pool, and the great
azd voneceuent increase of expense to the owners of
doteamers' demand that the voyage should be terminated lower
wntho River. Under these circumstances it has been deter-
Ired to form Docks for the reception and discharge of Steam-
T'a"ls at or near the mouth of the River Ravensbourne, at
ePtfoid, thereby affording by means of the Greenwich Rail-
rtaY, And the other Railroads to be cennectoi therewith, faci-
-I,Y for the transit of passengers and goods to and from all parts
rld'2:2 the Metropolis and other places. Upon the scale of tonnage,
other advantages to be derived frOm the undertaking, there
Csar."•sonable ground for expecting a handsome return for the
•lViNal employed. In order to effect these objects plars. and
inalls of the intended Docks have been made by Messrs.
alker and Burgos, of Great George-street, Westminster ; and
application is intendedto be made, during the present Session,
°I. an Act to establish the Company, for which purpose all the
I.l()Per measures have been taken. The plans and estimates of

PRICE OF SUGAR.

EFFECT OF MONOPOLY.
Table showing the ex-duty price of West India Sugar,
in Mincing-lane, and comparing the same against
that of Foreign Sugar.

London, Nov. 8, 1839.
The Gazette of this evening will quote the Per cwt.
average price of British Plantation Musco-
vado Sugar, exclusive of duty, at 37s. lid.
The actual quantity of Sugar sold on account of the
importers, in the week ending the sth inst., according
to the returns made upon oath by the West India
Sugar-brokers, in conformity with the Act of Parlia-
ment, 9th Gco: IV., 28th July, 1828, and on which
the above price is computed, consisted of 2,832 hhds.
trs. and 302 barrels, and not of 3,200 hhds., as er-
roneously estimated in the market.
Foreign Sugars of all descriptions are dull of sale—
they may be quoted, quality for quality, at about 17s.
per cwt. cheaper than West India Sugar. -
The difference in the prices of the produce of the ro-
fineries which manufacture foreign sugars for exporta-
tion only, and of those which work West India sugar
for home consumption, remains much the same as we
-.quoted last week.
The variable state of the wind prevents the sugar
ships, which are in the Channel, from making the River :
we have as yet, consequently, no sugar to land this
week, against 870 hhds. landed in the corresponding
week of last year. It is, however, well known that
upon a change of wind we shall have a large supply of
sugar both from the East and West Indies:
The purchases in the market have been considerable
since our last report, and a shilling per cwt. advance
has been paid ; but as the grocers have nearly com-
pleted their orders for the Christmas supply, we may
expect that in the Course of a week or ten days prices
will again recede.

KENNAWAY V. TRELEVEN.

This was an action upon a guarantee, which was
tried at the late Somerset Assizes, before Mr. Justice
Erskine, when a verdict was found for the plaintiff,
damages 2001.
Mr. BERE now moved for a rule nisi for a nonsuit,
pursuant to leave reserved for him at the trial. The
guarantee was in these words—" I hereby become in-
debted to Messrs. Kennaway, in case Mr. Patten
should make default in his capacity of agent and traveller
to him," and signed by the defendant. The Learned
Gentleman contended, upon the authority of Cole
v. Dyer, 4 Crumpton and Jervis, 621, and other
cases, that there was no sufficient considera-
tion upon the face of the guarantee. The words
were so vague, that supposing Mr. Patten to
have received monies upon the account of the plaintiff
previous to the guarantee being signed, and neglected
to account for it, under that document it would have
been recovered ; the guarantee was therefore in reference
to the past as well as the future, and therefore void ;
and further, he contended that upon the face of the
document there was no obligation on the part of the
plaintiff.
The COURT thought it was clear upon the face of the
guarantee, that it referred to the future, and Mr. Pat-
ten could not become a delaulter, unless the plaintiff
had given him employment. They saw no reason for
disturbing the verdict.—Rule refused.

Allowances during Sickness ; and Endowments for Children,

as possess only a small personal property, Insurances are effected
against loss by Fire, in sums from 101. 10 1001., by Quarterly

very novel feature, for the man to whom this fact is known, will
henceforth deserve little sympathy should he become the victim

As might be expected from the state of the Money Market,
there is but very little business passing in any department of
Merchandize. Purchases are limited to the bare necessities of
those who make them, and prices are mostly inclined to droop ;
still very few actual declines take place. Amidst all this con-
tinued pressure for money, which we have now had for so
long a time, it is remarkable that we have not hal a failure of
any consequence.

THE MARKETS.-(THIS DAY.

CORN EXCHANGE.
In the preceding week the arrivals of English Wheat and
Flour, also of Foreign Wheat and Oats were considerable.
This morning the fresh supplies are small. The extreme fine-
ness of the weather has occasioned a very dull Wheat trade at
Is. to 2s. per quarter reduction, for both English and Foreign,
from last Monday's terms. In Barley and Beans little is doing,
with short quantities at market. New White Pease came dry
and fine, and sell at 445. per quarter. The great quantity of
Foreign Oats for sale, duty paid, has reduced their value full
Is. per quarter since this day se'nnight. Flour is very heavy,
no sale, and ship parcels rather lower. New Essex Whet,
dry and heavy, has sold at 765. to 80s.
