THE NORTH-WEST PASSAGE.

The first meeting of Lieutenant Bedford Pim
with the party from the Investigator is thus de-
scribed. in a private letter, dated " Her Majesty's
ship Resolute, Melville Island, April 19, 1853 :"
" This is really a red letter day in ou:. voyage, and
shall be kept as a holiday by our heirs and successors
for ever. At 9 o'clock of this day our look-out man
made the signal for a party corning in from the west-
ward ; all went out to meet them and assist them in. A
second party was then seen. Dr. Domville was the first
person I met. I cannot describe my feelings when be
told me that Captain M'Clure was among the next party.
I was not long in reaching him and giving him many
hearty shakes—no purer were ever given by two men in
this world. M'Clure looks well, but is very hungry.
His description of Pim's making the Harbour of Mercy
would have been a fine subject for the pen of Captain
Marryat, were he alive.
" M'Clure and his First-Lieutenant were walking on
the floe. Seeing a person coming very fast towards
them they supposed he was chased by a bear, or had
seen a bear. Walked towards him ;on getting onwards
a hundred yards, they could see from his proportions
that he was not one of them. Pim began to screech
and throw up his hands (his face as black as my hat) ;
this brought the captain and lieutenant to a stand, as
they could not hear sufficiently to make out his language.
"At length Pim reached the party, quite beside him-
self, and stammered out, on M'Clure asking him, Who
are you, and where do you come from,'—' Lieutenant
Pim, Herald, Captain Kellett.' This was more inex-
plicable to M'Clure, as I was the last person he shook
hands with in Behring's Straits. He at length found
that this solitary stranger was a true Englishman—an
angel of light ; he says :—' He soon was seen from the
ship ; they had only one hatchway open, and the crew
were fairly jambed there, in their endeavour to get up.
The sick jumped out of their hammocks, and the crew
forgot their despondency • in fact, all was changed on
board the Investigator.
" M'Clure had 30 men and three officers fully pre-
pared to leave for the depot at Point Spencer. What
a disappointment it would have been to go there and
find the miserable Mary yacht with four or five casks
of provisions, instead of a fine large depot I
"Another party of seven men were to have gone by
M'Kenzie, with a request to the Admiralty to send out
a ship at Point Leopold, in 1854. The 30 men are on
their way to me now. I shall, if possible, send them on
to Beechy Island, with about 10 men of my own crew,
to be taken home the first opportunity.
" May 2.—lnvestigator's second party, consisting of
Lieutenant Cresswell and Wynniatt, Mr. Piers, and
Mr. Meertsching arrived, bringing two men on their
sledge. They made an extraordinary passage across for
men in their state. The greater part of them are affected
with scurvy, but are rapidly improving."

THE ARCTIC EXPEDITIONS.

RUSSIA AND TURKEY.

The Paris correspondent of the Morning Chro-
nicle, in a letter dated yesterday, published in the
second edition of that journal to day, says :
" As the question of peace or war approaches to a
crisis, it is gratifying to find that the attitude
assumed by the French Government becomes more
and more firm. Louis Napoleon and his Ministers
express their firm determination to adhere to the
English alliance, whatever may happen ; and
declare that they are determined to support
Turkey, not only by force of arms, but to the
utmost of their power. Orders have been given
for the concentration of troops, as if it were felt
that a struggle was inevitable. A large body of
troops is to be directed towards Toulon, where
they will be prepared to embark for the East at a
few days' notice. In the event—the probable event
—of its being necessary to dispatch troops, the
intention is form a depot in the Island of Candia,
which will be the head-quarters of both the
French and English troops, and to which stores
and ammunition will be directed. Should this
demonstration not be sufficient, and should the
Turkish capital be threatened, a large body of
troops will be despatched for Constantinople, an d
that place will be occupied by a combined French
and English army. You are already aware that
the French auxiliary army will be much more
numerous than that of England ; and it is under-
stood to have been arranged long since between
the two Governments that the land forces are to
be commanded by a French General, while the
naval forces will be placed under the command of
the English Admiral. The general belief is, not-
withstanding the Jesuitical denial of the Patrie,
that General Canrobert is to have the command of
the expedition.
The following is the text of the telegraphic dis-
patch which confirms the declaration of war by
Turkey against Russia :
" VIENNA, Oct. B.—The declaration of war by
the Porte against Russia is formal. The text of it
has reached the Ottoman legation. The following
condition is added to it. Nevertheless hostilities
will not be opened excepting in the case that the
Russian troops shall not have evacuated the Prin-
cipalities within the delay determined upon' (four
weeks)."
Another telegraphic dispatch says :—" The Sul-
tan had sent off for Beyrouth some frigates laden
with troops."
The public anxiety for news from Constantinople
will soon be gratified. We learn by telegraphic
dispatch from Marseilles, that the Fury steamer,
which left Constantinople on the Ist inst., had
reached that port on the evening of the Bth, and
that an officer with dispatches had started for Lon-
don at eight o'clock yesterday (Sunday) morning.
The nature of the news brought by the Fury had
not transpired.
The following telegraphic message was received

WOOL.

The next series of colonial wool sales will commence on
the 20th inst. The quantity declared is 56,653 bales—viz.,
17,443 bales from Sydney, 20,529 Port Philip, 4,538 Van
Dieman's Land, 3,368 Adelaide, 5,255 Cape, 120 Swan
River, 1,398 New Zealand, and 3,2a2 East India. Scarcely
any business is doing in the private contract market, and
prices are with difficulty supported. Last week's imports
were 19 bales from Alexandria, 490 from Hamburgh, 106
from Leghorn, m from Seville, 2,800 from Sydney, and
206 from Melbourne.

THE MOST CERTAIN PREVENTION OF CHOLERA EVER
DISCOVERED.
THE BEST and CHEAPEST DISIN-
FSCTIN • FLUID is CREW'S IMPROVED CH.I.OKIDE
of ZINC, for the purification of Dwelling-houses Stables, Dog Ken-
nels, Ship's Holds, Cesspools, Brains, w ater-closets, &c. ; the Disin-
fection of Sick Rooms, Clothing, Linen, and for the Prevention of
Contagion.
Chloride of Zinc, as the best Disinfecting and purifying agent, is
now e-tablished beyond all doubt. It is perfectly harmless in its
application and innoxious in itself. The high prce sa which it hos
hitherto be'n sold has prevented its general ,use; to obviate this
obstacle to its universal ap licatlon as a disinfecting and purifying
agent, the present manufacturer, who was many years with Sir W.
Burnett's Company, has arranged to supply the public with concen-
tratrd Chloride of Zinc in its greatest purity and at the lowest price.
It is sold by all tfhealists and Shilminz Agents in the United Kt, tif
clom, in Imperial Quart Bottles at 2s. (id. each ; in pints, Is. ; half
pints, 6d. each ; and in larger vessels at 6s. per Gallon.
Each Bottle will be accompanied with instructions for its dilution
and use. Concentrated Chloride of Zinc in use may be diluted with
`2OO times its quantity of water.

whether their duty to the manufacturing and
shipping interests, which requires them to proclaim
j the incalculable good thus conferred on English
commerce, will get the better of their subservience
to the present ministry, which compels them to
' refuse all merit to the administration of Lord
Derby, and more especially the department pre-
sided over by Lord Mahnesbury. Such efforts will
be vain. The time is gone by when they could
succeed ' • and the clear-sighted commercial men of
England will be quick to perceive that not only are
they indebted to the noble earl for this boon, but
that also to the promptitude and ability of Sir
Charles Hotham it is owing that its attainment
was not frustrated by Lord Aberdeen and Lord
Clarendon as " hopeless." While indignant at
the thought of what this small-souled caution
might have shut them out from, they will do well
to reflect that one of the most signal achievements
of commercial diplomacy in modern times had well-
nigh failed from a beggarly but characteristic cal-
culation of its " expensiveness."

SUSPICIOUS DEATH OF A WIFE.

On Saturday afternoon, Mr. Payne held a long in-
quiry at the Vestry-hall, Fair-street, Horsleydown, on
the body of Ann Roberts, the wife of a greengrocer in
Bermondsey-street, who, it was at first supposed, had
committed suicide, but concerning whose death reports
were subsequently in circulation of a more serious cha-
racter.
On Friday morning the deceased was found in her
bed-room hanging by a gauze veil, and in nearly a kneel-
ing posture. She was quite dead. Her husband gave
the alarm. He had slept on a sofa, having come home
the previous night very drunk. When he called in a
lodger he said, "Good God ! I shall not belong after
her." He bad only a short time before come out of
gaol, where he had been undergoing imprisonment for
ill using his wife.

terrified at death.

Ellen Cooke, the daughter of the deceased, produced
a bundle of letters which her mother had given her. A
short time since her mother told Roberts that be would
soon go back again to gaol for his ill usage of her. He
made use of some very filty expressions, and replied that
the next time he went it would not be for twelve months,
but for two or three years, and perhaps he might go on
to a scaffold for her, as he meant to have her life, at the
same time using most violent language. That was about
three weeks ago.

The coroner then read three letters sent by a woman
alluded to in the course of the investigation, signed
" Eliza Roberts," thereby assuming the name of the
wife, one of them being addressed to Roberts. In this
letter she entreated Roberts to come to her without
delay, stating that she had got an order for the play.
He was to make any excuse to deceive his wife, and if
he found any difficulty in doing so that he must "cook"
her, as they had agreed upon, and then when she was
gone they could live happily together. The two other
hitters to the wife were couched in the most filthy lan-
guage, taunting her with having lived with her husband
whilst she was in the workhouse, and that he had spent
many pounds upon her, but having lost his situation at
Somerset-house he had returned to her for convenience,
but that she had made up her mind to have her life, if
she should be hanged for her.

Dr. Challice said he should have great hesitation at
the present moment in stating the cause of death. The
features were exceedingly placid, and there was no
bloodshot about the eyes, as was common where death
occurred from strangulation.

- The inquiry was then adjourned for a post mortem ex-
amination to be made.

kiss, therefore you must pay for that. You had better
settle for the kiss, and be more careful for the future.
The complainant consented to receive 5., and the man
was discharged on payment of that sum.
Sarah Bolder, a chandler's shop-keeper, was sum-
moned for having cut and defaced a genuine sixpence,
and unlawfully refusing to receive the same at the rate
it was coined for.
Ellen Ennis, the complainant, stated that she went
into defendant's shop on Wednesday, and tendered a
good sixpence to her in payment of some trifling article.
The defendant bent and defaced it and afterwards re-
fused to take it. Complainant here handed the coin for
his worship's inspection, when
Mr. Combe said that she had acted unlawfully in de-
facing the sixpence as well as in refusing to take it.
The coin was genuine, and although worn, it was a legal
tender, and she had no right to bend it in that manner.
He should order her to pay sixpence and two shillings
costs.
Mrs. Holder said she was unacquainted with the law,
and that for the future she should neither deface nor
refuse to take good and lawful money.

cumstance of her having herself proposed to Herr
Findellund. An episode in the narrative is of a
somewhat kindred description. Audrey's father
having at the commencement of the fiction sud-
denly and mysteriously disappeared from Charlie-
wood, ultimately, in the course of the story,
" turns up" again as a sailor, calling himself Tom
Taylor, though having no kind of resemblance
whatever to the comical Professor known as a con-
tributor to Punch, and as the editor of " Haydon's
Autobiography." Tom Taylor, otherwise Dabney,
going on a wild-goose chace after his long-neglected
daughter (supposed to have married one Fiddle-
skin, a foreign itinerant with white hair and a
barrel organ) is most egregiously deceived into the
belief that he has discovered her and her husband
in the persons of two most rascally and designing
vagabonds. He supports this knavish couple until
the woman dies, and, dying, discovers to him the
whole secret of the deception. What in this episode
surpasses even its improbability, is the unaccount-
able oddity of the circumstance that the authoress
endeavours by every device to excite our sympathy
for the woman, and to call forth in behalf of the
rogue, her husband, feelings of interest, or at least
of commiseration. Another testimony, we con-
ceive, that our suggestion is not altogether erro-
neous, namely, that the novel before us is a veri-
table curiosity or phenomenon in literature. As a
curiosity in this way it reveals a considerable
amount of ingenuity—ingenuity in the linking to-
gether of a series of the most unlikely incidents, and
in the grouping of some of the least attractive of all
conceivable characters. " Audrey," in these re-
spects, stands altogether alone among the writer's
productions. If contrasted as a work of art with
its predecessors from the same hand, it, must rank
undoubtedly below both " The Cup and the Lip"
and " The Tide of Life." It cannot, consequently,
be brought for an instant into comparison with the
enthralling and picturesque romance of the " Forest
and the Fortress," much less be mentioned in the
same breath with the exquisite narrative of the
" Ransom," the first and incomparably the best of
all Miss Laura Jewry's varied compositions, a fic-
tion that carried us back to the days of the cru-
saders, a story that reminded one of Scott, a tale
that built up the author's reputation.

There was a full average number of each kind of foreign
stock on offer in to-day's market. The demand ruled
heavy, at drooping prices. From our own grazing districts
the receipts of beasts fresh up thismorning were somewhat
on the increase, and in fair average condition. The at-
tendance of both town and country buyers was good ; but
the increased supplies of meat oa offer in Newgate and
Leadenhall induced caution in efficting purchases. The
few prime lots brought forward realised last week's cur-
rency—viz., 4s 6d per 81bs, but all other breeds were dull,
and 2d per 81bs lower than on Moaday last.
The arrivals from Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, and
Northamptonshire amounted to 2,220 short horns ; from
other parts of England, 609 Herefords, runts, and Devons;
and from Scotland, 79 horned and polled Scots.i
With sheep we are seasonably well supplied, and there
was a decided increase in their general weight. The primest
Downs sold slowly at last week's cirrency—viz., 5s 2d per
81bs; but all other breeds were very dull, and 2d per 81bs
lower. _ _ _

TOS, the supply of which was rood, sold hea-C.ly, at a
decline in price of from 6d to 8d per 81bs.
We had a slow sale for pigs, at reduction of 2d per
Sibs. The supply was good.

MARKET NEWS-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE.

Most of the country markets held on Saturday were
fairly supplied with wheat, in which about an average
business was transacted at full prices. At the outports
foreign wheats were steady, but not dearer. Barley, the
supplies of which were but moderate, moved off freely, at
extreme rates. The malt trade was rather active. Oats,
beans, peas, and flour were very firm.
The Continental markets continue firm, and the late ad-
vance in prices has been well supported. The latest ad-
vices from New York state that the inquiry for grain and
flour was by no means active.
The arrivals of English grain up to our market last week
wore on the increase. From abroad, we received 8,261
quarters of wheat, 2,975 barley, 3,410 oats, 4,775 beans,
835 peas, 473 tares, 3,540 linseed, 87 rapeseed, 291 mustard
seed, 19 sundry seeds, and 8,060 barrels of flour.
Fresh up, to-day, coastwise from Essex, Sent, &c., the
receipts of wheat were on a very moderate scale. By land
carriage the supply was by no means extensive, neverthe-
less, there was a slight increase in the show of samples
compared with Monday last. Notwithstanding that the
attendance of millers and others was tolerably good, the
demand for all kinds of wheat of home produce was in a
very sluggish state, at prices barely equal to those obtained
on Monday last. There were inquiries for forward delivery
parcels, but the firmness of the growers prevented business.
With foreign wheat we were tolerably well, but not to
say heavily supplied. A few parcels changed hands for
shipment to the continent at full quotations, but for home
use very little was doing, at barely late rates.
Since our last, twenty vessels have arrived off the coast
with wheat, from the westward, and the cargoes have sold
at full quotations.
The supply of both English and foreign barley was
small. All kinds were in but moderate request. In prices,
no change took place.
We had a fair inquiry for malt at late currencies.
The inquiry for beans was less active, owing to the in-
ward arrivals. In prices, no change took place.
Peas met a slow inquiry, on former terms.
The flour trade was tolerably firm, at late figures. The
supply of both English and foreign was very moderate.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE kUN.

SIII,—I have observed it stated lately in two of your
newspapers that checks payable to bearer can only be
drawn upon bankers within 10 miles of the place where
issued. It was so by the Stamp Act of 11th July, 1815
(55 Geo. 111., cap. 184) but if you refer to the
amended act of 15th July, 1828 (9 Geo. IV., cap. 49,
sec. 15), you will find that the distance is there extended
to 15 miles.—l am, Sir, yours, &c.,

SUSSEX ARCILEOLOGICAL SOCIETY.—A very interesting
meeting of this society was held on Thursday last, at the
ancient town and port of Seaford. A number of visitors
arrived by train, via Newhaven, among whom was the
Earl of Sheffield, the Archdeacon of London, W. H.
Blaauw, Esq. (Hon. Sec.), &c. After viewing the
churches of Bishopstone and East Blatchington en route,
the visitors, including many ladies, assembled at the
Town-hall, Seaford—the Rev. J. Carnegie, vicar of the
parish, in the chair. Mr. Mark Antony Lower read a
paper on the " Antiquities of Seaford," containing
many amusing extracts from the old records of the town.
Mr. Henry Simmons (local Secretary) exhibitted the
charter of King Henry the Eighth granted to the
Cinque Port, the corporation seals, mace, &c. After
the meeting the parish church, also an ancient crypt,
&c., was visited by the members and company. John
Fitzgerald, Esq., gave an entertainment at his residence,
►Seaford Lodge, on the occasion.

BLAIR'S GOUT AND RHEUMATIC PILLS.
The following testimonial is another proof of the great efli -
2acy of this medicine :
"157, Vew Bond-street, Londo,., Octoher 12, 1850.

" Sir,—ln icquainting you with the great benefit which I have ex
perienced by taking BLAIR'S GP 'CT 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•
littred the best medical aid, without obtaining any essential relief,
and my sufferings can be appreciated only by th•se who know some-
thing of this disease.
" It was during one of those paroxysms, between twelve and thir-
teen years ago, that I was recommended to try BLAIR'S PILLS. I
lost no time Dt procuring a box, and before I had taken that quantity
he pain had entirely ceased, and in a few days I was in perfect
health.
" From that moment, whenever I feel any symptoms of the dis-
ease approaching, I have Instant recourse to this medicine, which to
me is so valuable, that were it not that the days of manic have
ceased, I should certainly attribute the relief I obtain to that cause.
Moreover, I rejoice to say that my health has not in any degree suf-
.ered, but on the contrary I believe the tendency of BLAIR'S PILLS
s towards Its improvement.
" I have recommended the Pills to many Mends, and the result
has always been of the most gratifying character.
" I am, Sir, yours respectfully,
"GARRET FOSTER GILL.
"To Mr. Prout, 229, Strand."

For every description of Gout and Rheumatism, Sciatica, Tic-dolo-
rens, &c., &c , BLAI.t'S GOUT and RHEUMATIC PILLS are a
sovereign remedy. contain neither mercury, opitm, or any other
langerous drug, require no care whatever in their use, and tar ra-
pidity of cure and complete safety have not their equal in the world.

ITALY.

The Parlamento of Turin, of the sth, has the
following :—" The Genoa papers speak of arrests
of refugees. We have been assured that respect-
able refugees have nothing to fear. The Govern-
ment persists in the intention of maintaining in-
violate the asylum granted to all those who are not
accomplices in attempts of a nature to endanger
the State, or in other crimes."
Forty-six persons have been arrested at Modena
for political motives in the course of the last fort-
night.

-The measure of expelling all political refugees
from Tuscany having been mooted in political
circles at Florence, the Austrian military com-
mandant had disapproved of it, so that the idea
has been abandoned.

The Parlament° of Turin of the 6th inst. an-
nounces that, on the 28th ult., the Tuscan Go-
vernment had promulgated a new municipal
law. Every district of Tuscany is to be re-
presented in future by a Council General, a
tribunal, and a gonfalonier. The Council General
is to consist of the gonfalonier, the priors,
residing within the jurisdiction of tribunal, and
a certain number of councillors. The appoint-
ment of the gonfalonier belongs to the Grand Duke.
The members of the council general are drawn
by lot from among the proprietors of each dis-
trict, and the priors are chosen among the highest
tax-payers. In towns, of which the population does
not exceed 2,000 inhabitants, the priors are to be
three, and the councillors six in number. In towns
of from 2,000 to 5,000 inhabitants, there are to be
four priors and eight councillors ; in those of more
than 5,000, but under 10,000, five priors and 10
councillors ; in those above 10,000, but not exceed-
ing 15,000, six priors and 12 councillors ; in
those above 15,000, but under 20,000, seven
priors and 14 councilors ; in towns containing
more than 20,000 inhabitants, eight priors
and 16 councillors ; in the city of Lucca, nine
priors and 18 councillors, and at Florence and
Leghorn 10 priors and 20 councillors. The Gon-
faloniers remain in office during four years. The
new law is only to come into operation on the Ist
of January, 1854, and the present Gonfaloniers
and Communal Councils are to continue in func-
tions until the 31st of December, 1853.
The Giornale di Roma, of the Ist inst., announces
the death, in his 80th year, of M. Joseph Capo-
grossi, Professor of Criminal Law in the Roman
University.
