FORTUNE: A ROMANCE OF LIFE
IN THE BRITISH METROPOLIS.

By D. T. COULTON, Esq.

"A tale that ought to be rea I by the entire generation of novel

the moral anatomy of high society, which will attract all readers.
In every sense of the word, ' Fertune' is an excellent novel."—
Observer.
" There is no doubt that ibis vpll prove the most remarkable novel
of the season. For power, for thought, and for originality, it stands

FRAMPTON'S PILL of HEALTH.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great efficacy
of this medicine :

" Winchmore Hill, Middlesex, April 16, 1851

. ,
" Sir,—ln consideration of the great benefit I have derived from
taking Frampton's Pill of Health, I feel it a duty that I owe to you
and the public to send you the following statement. For upwards of
nine years I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent medicine.
I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion,
but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills,
I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during
this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other
medicine ; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a
better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg
further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and
we know of nothing to equal it.

" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
THOMAS PROVINCE.

" To Mr. T. Pront, 229, Strand, London.
This excellent Family Pill is a medicine of long-tried efficacy for
correcting all disorders of the stomach and bowels, and is a
pleasant, safe, easy aperient ; they unite the recommendation of a
mild operation with fhe most successful effect, and require no re-
straint of diet or confinement during their use.
Ask for FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH, and observe the
name and address of " Thomas Front, 229, Strand, London,"on the
Government Storni).

GERMANY.

The King of Hanover has conferred on the King
of the Belgians and on Prince Albert, the Consort
of Queen Victoria, the Order of Saint George.
A letter from Stockholm of the Ist inst. states
that three Swedish officers had obtained permission
from the King to be present at the manoeuvres of
the French troops at the camp at Helfaut. They
are MM. Wergeland, Lieutenant-Colonel of the
Staff General of the Norwegian army ; Captain
Blidt, Aide-de-Camp of his Majesty ; and Lieu-
tenant Dardel, Aide-de-Camp of the Prince Royal.
The Germanic Diet in its sitting of Thursday
last has decided on reimbursing to the Prussian
Government the sum of 165,000 thalers, which it
had expended for the conclusion of the armistice
with Denmark. But the sum is not to be paid
until after the general liquidation takes place.
The Hanoverian Government has already paid its
share of that sum. The Diet has also voted 52,000
florins for the continuance of the works of fortifi-
cation at Rastadt and Ulm.

A letter from Stettin of the 7th says :--" M.
Luders, formerly editor of the Sentinel of the Bal-
tic, who had fled to England some years back, has
returned here and delivered himself into the hands
of justice."

A. letter from Vienna of the 7th says :—" The
account of the Bank for the month of June is a very
favourable one, compared to those of preceding
months. The specie in hand has increased by
700,000 florins, and bills by more than 7,000,000/ ;
whilst on the other hand the circulation of notes
has diminished by more than 7,090,000f1. ; the
funded debt has fallen to 68,000,000f1., and the
mortgage debt to 58,000,000fl.—The Emperor has
had the clethency to order that the two ex-Bishops
LOITOW/CS and Rudnyanski, imprisoned for partici-
pation in the Hungarian revolution, shall be set at
liberty.—Lord Westmoreland yesterday had a long
conference with the Russian envoy."

SPAIN.

The contents of the Madrid journals of the 18th
are unimportant. The Royal Council had con-
cluded the reports, eight in number, on railway
concessions demanded from it by the Government.
The responsible editor of the Diario had been tried
for the publication of a seditious article, and acquit-
ted. A Madrid letter of the same date says :
" Lord Howden's private secretary, Mr. Thomas
Middleton, leaves Madrid to-day for England,
which would seem to leave little doubt that Lord
Howden will not return here. It is said that his
lordship's family and friends have become so seri-
ously alarmed in consequence of his continued state
of suffering, that they have prevailed on him to
give up all idea of doing so and there appears to
be as little doubt that he will be succeeded by Sir
Richard Pakenham, now her Majesty's Envoy to
Portugal."

SOUTHAMPTON, THURSDAY MORNING.
Accounts from Pernambuco, received by the
Tay, announce the destruction by fire of the Eng-
lish ship Condor, from Australia, bound to England,
on the 10th of June, in lat. 4 S., occasioned by
spontaneous combustion of the wool on board. The
whole cf the crew, 70 passengers, and gold dust,
value 80,000/., were saved by Captain Le Maitre, of
the French barque Charles and Pauline, and con-
veyed to Pernambuco.
The ship James Alexander, from Port Philip, and
the Duke of Romburghe, from Sydney, both bound
to London, had put into Bahia for water, and left
that port respeitively on the 15th and 16th ult.
The British %,rque Chusan, bound round Cape
Horn, foundered at sea, about 200 miles of Cape
Pio. The crew left the vessel in boats, and were
in sight when the ship went down. The captain
and a part of the crew had arrived at Rio de
Janeiro • the remainder, it was supposed, reached
a ship which was in sight the morning after the
disaster.

The Brazilian steamer Rio de Janeiro, laden with
gunpowder and warlike stores, caught fire on the
lit ult., from spontaneous ignition of the coal.
Shortly after the crew escaped the vessel blew up
with a tremendous explosion.

The object of this work is somewhat doubtful.
The Author, in the preface, expresses his convic-
tion that Europe will never be released from per-
petual and periodical negotiations and difficulties
in the East until the Moslems have passed over
into Asia, and an independent Christian govern-
ment established on the shores of the Bosphorus;
but how this is to be brought about deponent
sayeth not. The writer is decidedly predisposed
against the Osmanli, whose political and social cha-
racter he describes in a manner which, although
amusing and probably correct, leads the
reader to form a very different opinion of
the Turks from that which he may have
heretofore entertained from the tourist's narrative.
The descriptions of the education of the children,
the habits of the women, and the costume of the
people, all, although written with the pointedness
of a critic, bear the stamp of truth; and to those
whose only knowledge of the East is derived from
the " Arabian Nights" we recommend this volume
by way of an antidote to any false conception they
may have formed of Oriental magnificence.

"We promised in a former number that we should recur to this

with great severity the impostors who make a livelihood by preying
on the credulity of the public. The tribe of Quiet Symathisers,'

could find its way into the hands of those who suffer from th com-

be caved much needless suffering of body and mind, and what is of
less importance, though it is that which the quacks most prize—

RETURN OF COMMANDER INGLEFIELD,

Commander Inglefield, who it will be remem-
bered, was dispatched in her Majesty's steam-ship
Phcenix in the spring of the year with sup-
plies for Sir Edward Belcher's squadron, arrived
at the Admiralty to-day, having left the Phcenix,
at Thurso, N. 8., Commander Highfield, bringing
no intelligence of Sir John Franklin's expedition.
He has, however, succeeded in depositing supplies
as directed, and we are happy to say is accom-
panied by Lieut. Cresswell of the Investigator, with
dispatches from Commander M'Lure, thus
enabling us to satisfy the public and the friends
of those embarked in the Investigator, concerning
which ship considerable anxiety had existed as
to her safety. The Breadalbane transport, which
accompanied the Phoenix, was totally wrecked by
a nip of the ice—crew saved and brought home
in the Phcenix. It is concluded from Sir Ed-
ward Beicher's dispatches that that officer would
endeavour to retrace his steps this season to
Beechy Island to winter.
It is further to be gathered from these dis-
patches, that Lieutenant Cresswell had. completed
the passage between the two oceans, having passed
into the Arctic Sea by Behring's Straits, and re-
turning home by Davis' Straits.

making no return—while the dispute lasts. The
men. will at the same time lose their wages, or at
the utmost obtain a small proportion from the
contributions of other hands, which they will have
to return, in, due season, with exorbitant interest,
applying the money that might be usefully ex-
pended for their families to the support of mis-
chievous agitators, who care nothing for the
misery endured by their victims so long as they
themselves are enabled to live in luxurious idleness
at the expense of their dupes. When the dispute
is brought to a conclusion both parties will have
their feelings embittered, and a considerable time
must elapse before the restoration of perfectly
amicable relations.

Such are tl:e results of a strike, where
the men have been foiled, and the victory
remains with the masters. From that they may
recover, but at the expense of much suffering
and distress. But the consequences of a success-
ful strike are fatal. The defeated master sees
that it will be impossible to carry on business
with any reasonable prospect of profit on the
terms imposed on him by his workmen. He
yields for the moment ; but, while doing so, is
making his arrangements for abandoning his
business, and carrying his skill and enterprise, and
his remaining capital, to some place where they
can be applied on better terms ; and the hands,
on the cessation of the works, will have bitter
reason to lament the temporary triumph that
they achieved.
Would that the true state of the case could be
understood, while there is yet time, by the ope-
ratives throughout the country. Already the
masters are taking the necessary steps, not merely
to defeat any strike that may be attempted, but
to take the initiative themselves, and close
their establishments until their men come to
their senses. The course adopted at Preston
will be generally followed, and the masters will
take care that some do not keep open, so that a
portion of the wages which they pay may be
diverted from its legitimate use to the support of
the disaffected workmen. Many of these masters
will doubtless be glad of the excuse thus afforded
of curtailing their expenses during the trying
times that are approaching. Let the workmen,
if they are not hopelessly insane, retrace their
footsteps while there is yet time, and before esta-
blishments are closed, which, if there be a total
cessation of work, may not re-open when their
hands are no longer capable of holding out, and
are willing to make humiliating and unconditional
submission.

MIDDLESEX SESSIONS.—Oct. 0,

MUSIC AND DANCING LICENSES.

The court sat to-day at Clerken well to hear applications
for the renewal of old and the granting of new licenses for
music and dancing, under the act 25th Geo. 11., c. 36.

Mr. Pownall, the chairman of the County Bench, was
in the chair, and for the occasion the attendance of ma-
gistrates was very thin. The number of applications for
the renewal of licenses granted under the new regulations
far music only was 94, for the renewal of licenses for
music and dancing 56 ; 86 applications were made for
new licences for music only ; and 5 for both music and
dancing—making the total number of applicants 241.

The Chairman, before proceeding to the business of the
day, said he had to make an observation or two to the pub-
licans in attendance in reference to these licenses. By the
separation of the licenses as it was formerly granted,i.e.,for
public music and dancing, and the granting of licenses to
publicans for music only, a very great increase, as was
naturally expected, had taken place in the number of
applications for such licenses, and in making that dis-
tinction in the license the magistrates thought they
were removing a very great inconvenience, and not
only protecting the publican from the proceedings of the
common informer, but promoting that which they much
wished to see extended among the people—a taste for
and a love of music. But they had no intention that
every public-house to which a license was granted
should be converted into a penny concert-room—the
object of the bench being that the publican should
have the means of providing musical entertainment
to his regular customers, and he trusted that the
publicans generally would, in the ensuing year, testify
by the mode in which they used the license of the
court their appreciation of the wishes of the bench.
A publican who converted his house into a penny
or twopenny concert room created a monopoly in the
trade in his neighbourhood, which the bench wished to
avoid, and by way of caution to those who in future
might apply for licenses, be would say that if they went
to expense in fitting up their houses as concert rooms,
or providing extensive rooms where concerts such as he
had alluded to might be given, such expense must be in-
curred at their own risk entirely, and the onus not
thrown upon any refusal the bench might decide upon.
The list was then proceeded with. In the applications
for renewals there was but one refusal ; in the list of
applications for the grant of new licenses for music only
there were four refusals, and one was withdrawn ; and
of the five applications for licenses for music and dan-
cing, only one was granted.
