ti UTCH PAPERS.

nottttoa3r, AUG. 2.--Nire hear that our army, with
the Prince of Orange at its head, has entered the province
of Limburg; that the troops passed the frontiers with re-
peated cheers, all eager to meet the enemy. All our
wishes attend our brave men, With earnest prayers that
they maycornbat under the protection of God ; which
with the Justite of their cause, must ensure their victory.
HAGUE, AUG. I.—His Majesty has issued orders for
public prayers in all places of divine worship in the king-
dom on the I4th of this rnotith) to implore the Divine
blessing on his Mak.usty's arms in the contest which honour
and duty have rendered necessary.

Prince had hits headquarters. The Prince commanded with
the third division, which occupied Arevdonk and Rethy.
Niellon's troops had retreated on the road to Lier, where
other detachments of the enemy seem to be assembling.

" 1. A Letter from the London Conference of 'July
in answer to the King's Declaration t•eispecting the eighteen
Articles.

Angusi I.
" 3. A Letter from the Minister of Foreign Affairs to
the Dutch Ambassadors of th ilve Courts, of the same
date, acnuattt.ng them with the state of affairs, and with
his Majesty's resolution."
From the two last papers, as well as the speeches of the
Members, it appears that Holland has for Tatty months
made such numerous sect-itteen, ttotw;thitanning its just
cause) the. the ing has given repeated proofs of
hit dire to contribute to the general peace ; but
seeing that the Belgians', who have rebaed arainst
their lawful sovereign, were ; that a person
had taken t ' b ICh to a Constitution in Belgium
wittily at variance with the honour of Holland, which
is deprived by it of its necessary frontiers, and whose rights,
founded on preceding treaties, are violated ; his Majbsty
cannot assent to restrietionz thutt lead to the ruin
of his faithf'.,l stlijects nor can he accede to the systeM of
the Powers to preserVe peaee at the ekpense of some States ;
that being driven to ex6emity, he has at length given his
army order's to obtain, by arms, the conditions which
Holland h” F bight to claim ; that he does not aim at
"t;onquest, and has commissioned his Ambassador to nego-
elate a treaty of separation between Holland and Belgium;
on equitable terms.

THE ELEMENTS of ARITHMETIC.
By Prof.sior DE MORGAN.

" Inste id of merely learning a number of rules by rote,
the pupil learns to refer every thing to reason, and he is
taught how to do so; and thus he will often be able to
ascertain the meaning of an ambiguous passage or supply
the defect of an imperfect proof. It is only thus that any
knowledge of the principles of Arithmetic can be acquired;
and although it is not necessary to resort to these conside_
rations to attain practical facility in performing arithme-
tical operations, we have little doubt that this will be gained
quite as rapidly under instruction, such as Profes.or De
Morgans Treatise affords, as it is from the old course of
reese rules and examples, and it will certainly be gained
better."—Journal of Education, No. I.

in the one side was valued at only '2oi., and on the other at 35/
Che affidavits on which the order of cominitment was made wen
if the most loose and inconclusive description his Lordshil
'tad ever in the whole course of his life seen. Whole brit
,ages of them he (the Lord Chatlecliorl had Marked wit!

fhe very utmost extent to which the affidavits could go was, ti
aise a case of suspicion, which might call upon the,poor met
o answer. They had answered ; they hid not may positive!,
lenied the charges brought against them, but they had got other
iersons distinctly to contradict the affidavits made on the origins-
application. Unfortunately the result eduid only resolve itself inn
question of costs. These men had suffered probably more fron
he length of their imprisonment than they wtilild have done i
hey had been tried before a jury and found guilty Cf %mite cii-
ninal ofthnce, notwithstanding they were innocent, and ought
sever to have been committed. The Court regretted that it
iould not give the costs of the appeal, as it reversed the ordo
static below ; but his Lordship put himself as it were into the
;hoes of his Honour, and directed the men to be discharged
,'orthwith, and to have the costs paid to them incurred up to thi
ime of the appeal.
SMITH r. FITZGERALD.
The LORD CHANCELLOR stated, that this was an appea'
front a decision of Sir Wm. Grant, while Master of the Rolls.
It had been areued before Lord Eldon, but he went out of otfict
before it could be disposed of. The question arose upon tht
construction of General Smith's will, and after all the considera-
tion his Lordship had been able to give to it, he was clearly of
opinion that the decree below ought to be Alined in all respects.
KIDNEY v. COCKBURN.

This was a motion for a now trial, arising upon the rejection of
piece of evidence by the Lord Chief Justice of the Court of
Common Pleas. His Lordship said he had taken time to consi-
der it, and to consult with the Learned Common Law Judges,
and though the opinion of the whole agreed with the view hu
Lordship was disposed to take of it, yet the que,tion was so im-
portant as regarded the principle of admitting or rejecting evi-
dence, that his Lordship had come to the resolution to send a case
upon it to the Court of King's Bench.

" At this moment, when the sympathies of all Europe

a summary of the early History of Poland—recording the
gallant deeds of its former statesmen and warriors, and
last, not least, giving an animated description of those cir-
cumstances which at last caused the prostrate sufferer to
rise in vengeance on the oppressor, cannot be other than
highly acceptable to every one. The work is one of great
interest, and the information it contains is so well timed,
that its utility and importance must at once he recog-
nised. Portraits of Czartoryski, th, President of the Na-
tional Government; and of General Koskiusko ; and a
map of Poland, are here supplied. The description of
Constantine is as curious as it is appalling, and well ac-
counts for the stern determination of the Poles to die rather

HAMBURG, OCT. 21.

• (EXTRACT OF A LETTER.)
Though you will now be sufficiently informed of
the state of the cholera morbus in this place, I will,
however, give you a few notices respecting it :
During the three or four 'first days (from the 7th to
the 10th instant) .we were by no means persuaded
that it was the epidemic cholera—few cases occurred,
and the physicians were of different opinions—but
afterwards every doubt was removed. We had, up
to yesterday, 262 cases, of which 121 proved mortal,
eleven recovered, and 130 were undecided. In the
last few days the number of cases has much in-
creased, up to fifty in twenty-four hours; according
to experience, the number will probably still increase
for a week or two; or, at least, not diminish. Upon
the whole, the cholera has extended its ravages, till
now, only to the lower classes of people, and parti-
cularly to drunkards; but in the higher classes a
slight indisposition, similar to the first symptoms of
the cholera •is very general—(l myself was attacked
by it for some days)—but it is very easily cured,
and leaves only a good deal of weakness. A great
many persons feel uneasy; but notwithstanding we
have given . up every idea of seclusion, busineis is
going on as usual, and the neighbouring Govern-
ments act in a similar way; only the Danish Go-
vernment still perseveies in the old ideas, but this
will probably not last. I know not a single case where
contagion has been proved or even suspected. The ap-
pearance of the cholera at Hamburg gives an eminent
proof that there is no contagion, but a miasma.
‘Vhen it first appeared here there was no infected
place within 150 English miles. It did tilt break -
out in a vessel coming from the upper part of the
Elbe, where the malady had already gained ground,
and even not in a part of the town near the pert, but
it a, I eared almost suddenly at • the sama time, nay
in the course of a few hours, in three or four parts
of the town; quite distant from each other. I know_
no case of a physician or attendant who has been
seriously taken ill. I trust that all these circum-
stances will be published under authority by medical
men, in order that the people may get rid of those
foolish precautions which annoy commerce and in-
tercourse, and are much worse than the malady
itself. The only precautions which can be taken are
temperance in eating and drinking, though a strength-
ening food is necessary ; avoiding passions, partifu.
larly fear and anger, and a good deal of attention at
every slight indisposition. Many people die because
they are too slow in sending for assistance, for the
malady proves fatal very often in the course of ten
or twelve hours; but I repeat, the greatest part of
the dying are drunkards."

ITALIAN BOYS.

The following curious particulars connected with this
tribe of travelling mendicants, and their mode of living,
we have no doubt, prove interesting to our readers.
The haunts of these unfortunate beings are in Vine-street,
Saffron-hill; Bleeding Heart-yard, Holborn-hill; Coal-
yin!, in Drury-lane ; and in the purlieus of Shoreditch:
whole houses are occupied by these wretched boys, who
sleep eight and nine in a bed: each boy's monkey is
chained near him, every night on going to rest, and the
other curiosities are placed in situations appointed to the
owner, so that on starting out in the morning each boy
takes his own compmion. On the ground floors reside
the"men, some Italian and some English, to whom the
monkeys, &c. really Lelong, and they provide each boy
with lodgings at ld. a night, with a basin of gruel in the
morning, upon starting 'on their peregtinations, having
first paid the master for the use of whatever curiosity they
:nay take with them to exhibit. The following are the
charges ;rode by the proprietors upon the juvenile crew :
For a porcupine :(very novel, there being only two) and an
organ, 4s. per day, being 2s. 6d. fur the porcupine, and 6d. for
the organ.
For a monkey (undressed) 2s. per day.
For a monkey in uniform 3s. per day.
For a box of white mice, Is. 6d. per day.
For a tortoise, Is. 6d. per day.
For a dog and monkey (the latter may be frequently seen in
the streets, riding on the dog's back,) 3s. per day.

. -
For dancing dogs, four in ifumber;zincluding dresses, spinning.
wheel, pipe and tabour, &c., ss. per day.
For a box 01 wax figures of the Siamese twins, 2s. per day.
For an organ, syltn figures waltzing, 3s. &I. per day.

Some of these boys, by their artlessness of manner and
gesticulations, it is said, obtain six or seven shillings a day,
and some more. One of them the other day, upon being
asked what was the largest sum he ever received in cue
day, replied 155., which he accounted for in the following
manner. One day he was ambulating about the Marine
Parade at Brighton, with his dog, and monkey on his
back, when a gentleman offered him Iss. to allow him to
throw a atone into the sea, for the dog to fetch. The boy
consented, the stone was thrown, and away jumped the
dog with the monkey into the sea. The monkey fastened
tight round the dog's neck, and both reaching the beat.l,
in safety, the boy received his premium.

CHOLERA MORBUS.

THI S dreadful malady is a disease of the
L ivcr, induced by bad food, bad state of the at-
mosphere; , and a diseased state of the digestive organs in
general. The public would do well by attending to the
advice an I prescriptions of the late J. Abernethy, Ex
q,,
Surgeon. His ANTIBILIOUS and DIGESTIVE
PILLS, I.vhen taken agreeably to his directions, will not
only be fo and to be a mild, safe, and certain preventive
against tit IS alarming disease, but one of the very best in
producing, under any circumstances, a sound and healthy
condition .of the liver, stomach, and bowels. These Pills
are prepay ed by Dr. Uson, late Pupil of Mr. Abernethy,
who has a ppointed J. Fleming, chemist, 8, Holborn bars,

THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.)

CITY, TWELVE 0' CL 0 CK.
We have been favoured with the following letter from a
respectable mercantile house in the city, received this
morning :

" Newcastle, Nov. I I.

" The report of the party sent to Sunderland was, that I
the district they visited was seldom or ever in a more
healthy state. The reports, and also the opinions of the
medical men, on the subject of the cholera, are various and
conflicting. I think the Sunderland cholera makes a great
deal more noise at Newcastle than it does there, and per-
haps more at London than at Newcastle. Several cases
of cholera appear to have occurred, but the opinions are
different as to whether they are native or foreign.
It does not appear that any more occur than
usual at this season of the year, and they are ge-
nerally persons who have been in a declining state,
or of irregular habits, and but for the prevalence of
that disease on the Continent, would in all pro-
bability have been unnoticed. Two or three snore cases
are reported to-day. The fever has done as much (or
perhaps more) here as the cholera at Sunderland. Mr.
Thomas died of it about a fortnight ago; a son of Mr.
Hdndyside, the bookbinder, was buried on Tuesday week ;
Mr. Haynes, a preacher, aged 22, a very pious and pro-
mising young man, was buried on Monday ; Mr. Peters,
the attorney, is dead thereof ; Mr. Bainbridge, aged
32, attorney, died yesterday, said to have been very
intemperate; and Mr. Atkinson, a foreign broker, is re-
ported dead this morning; but it is said there have been
no deaths in the Fever Hospital, though it has been full."
The following is a letter received from Sunderland this
morning :
" Nov. 10.—The Medical Board met this morning,
and there were no new cases reported ; the general opi-
nion is that the disorder is abating. Some of the medical
gentlemen do not believe it is the cholera. Persons who
have visited the town agree in stating that it is healthy."
We hear that within the last halt hour an express has
arrived from Paris; of course the contenta have not as
yet transpired.

NEWCASTLE, Nun•. 13.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR,—Seeing in your highly valuable Paper some
account of the cholera morbus at Sunderland, and
finding those accounts part fact and part fiction, I
am anxious to strip one of the other, and leave the
former for the informa•ion of the public. I have
been at the trouble of collecting my information
front Sunderland, and have it on the word of two of
the most respectable medical men there. The facts
I have heard I shall communicate to you as nearly
verbatim as I cart, and leave you to make what use
of them you please. First, instead of 27 cases there
have been only about 17, out of which there have
not been more than 11 that can be said to have died
in consequence, and they were chiefly persons of
above 50 years of age, some more than 60, and, I
believe, one or two of upwards of 80. That it was
the India cholera I deny, and I am fully convinced
that it was nothing more than he British disease of
that name, and brought on, wholly and solely, by
bad living of the parties, added to the dirty state of
the town, and the unhealthy state of the atmosphere,
impregnated,
as it generally is at this period of the
year, with an unwholesome matter, arising from ve-
getable decomposition. That individual infection is
consequent upon the disease also requires proof,
and in all my inquiries as to the fact, I am unable
to learn that in one solitary instance the parties who
have died, or been afflicted with the disease, had
any direct or indirect communication. In fact, Sir,
the affair has been much exaggerated, and that too,
I fear, to suit interested purposes. The following
report upon the subject is very current in Sunder-
land, and is also generally credited. As I had the
story so you have ir. If it be true the public will
know what to think of the propagators ; if untrue, it
is only right to give the parties an opportunity of
clearing themselves.
A few miles from Sunderland the new port lately
built by the Marquis of Londonderry (Seaham), is
situate, arid any thing disadvantageous to Sunder.
land, as a port, must be beneficial to Seaham. A
case of cholera having happened at Sunderland, it is
said that one Dr. Clanny, or Clany, a friend of the
Marquis of Londonderry, residing in Seaham, was
sent, or came over, to rt,underland, for the purpose
of inquiring into the merits of the case; hence we
see that all Sunderland vessels ride quarantine at
the Sort, and coals are up Bs. the chaldron in conse-
quence, while those front Seaham run free. It ap-
pears a strange anomaly to me why a collier should
perform quarantine from Sunderland, and coaches,
and all other conveyances by land, escape; besides, I
have yet to learn that any precautions have been
taken at any other port than that of London. I
have given you the story as I have had it. I think
it worth inquiring into. I am going to Sunderland
in a day or two, and will endeavour to sift the matter
further, and send you the result.
I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
A. B.
P.S.—Since writing the above, I hear that orders
have been given at Leith that vessels from Sunder-
land perform quarantine.

We are again without the arrival of any foreign mails.

and it is supposed that the French boats which came from
England are under quarantine.

Jamaica Papers to the 15th of September, two days
later than the last, have been received at the North and
South American Coffee-house. Not an extract in them
worth noticing.

The tollowirg is by the last French arrivals :—Ac-
counts from Constantinople to Ilth October, state that
important movements have taken place in the Divan. The
Reis Effendi has had several meetings with the English
and French Ambassadors, and negociations have been
recently opened on the subject of Greece, and it was stated
that they have come to a determination to put an end to
the distracted state of that country. Nothing is done by
the Porte without previously consulting the Russian Am-
bassador.

Accounts from the Hague state, that the son of Baron
Ekerin has left for St. Petersburgh ; he is charged to da-
mand of the Emperor of Russia, if he is determined to
suffer his nephews to he excluded from the throne of
Belgium. The King of Hoßind is waiting the answer of
the Emperor before he gives his final consent to the
twenty-four articles of the treaty.
The accounts from Madrid state that the diplomatic
corps there are very busy, and wish to obtain from King
Ferdinand certain concessions of a nature, it is said, to
consolidate the peace of Europe. The Spanish Govern-
ment has already been solicited several times to agree to a
general armistice under the guarantee of France and Eng-
land, and also to acknowledge the new American States.
It also appears that the Russian Ambassador has frequent
interviews with the Spanish Ministers, but on what point
is not known.

who have shaken off his boroughmongering yoke, propored
inviting them to a dinner • and adds, " however shallow

deep enough to tell his Lordship that the people of B".

UNITED SERVICE JOURNAL.

The observations on "Duelling," which forms
the opening article, are replete with sagacity and
sound argument. Of course the writer does not
advocate this false system, nor does he alto-
gether disapprove of it, satisfied that though an
evil, it is iN the present state of society a ne-
cessary one. Till the world is purged of bullies,
blacklegs, and swindling fashionable adventurers,
who acknowledge no restraint short of the pistol,
the duel, we apprehend, can never be dispensed
with. By what other means can the weak put
a stop to the impertinence of the strong—or the
dwarf set the physical energies of the giant at
defiance ? " A Morning's Ride in an Indian
Camp" will recall many pleasant recollections to
the mind of the Eastern traveller. The article
is penned in a cheerful spirit of sociality, and is
interesting fi om the minuteness and graphic
ability of its descriptions. The number is a
very amusing one.

(From the late American Papers.)
We leans from a distinguished person that the United States
will shortly be honoured by a visit from an illustrious traveller,
who cannot but excite much interest and curiosity amongst us ;
this is the accomplished Persian, whose residence in England as
Ambassador, formed the basis of the amusing volumes of Hajji
Baba," and other works.
Demerara Papers have been received at the North and South
American Coffee-house to the 15th of November. They a: e not
interesting.

(From the above Papers.)
In our last paper we noticed the commencement of the trial of
Mr. W. C. Tonge for a libel on the first fiscal. He is sentenc(xl
to six months' imprisonment, and security for future good beha-
viour for three years.
The accounts from Warsaw slate that the Emperor of Russia
remains firm in his resolution, and is determined to maintain
his rights in regard to Poland, but that which has irritated him
the most is that the Poles should have sent to foreign Powers to
interfere ; at the same time he said to Count Jesierski, that the
affairs of Poland would not interrupt the general peace of Eu-
rope, but if necessity required it he would march 400,000 seen
to subdue the Poles. _ . .

Prince Saha Herbourg has gone to Brussels at the invitation
of several Belgians.
For several days past there has arrived at Orleans a great
quantity of artillery, destined for several points.
They write from Toulouse that the Government has given
orders to cast a million of balls, six pounders.
The great fall of anew during the night and this morning
prevented the mails from getting to town until a very late hour,
which has caused a great delay in the delivery of the letters.
We have no ship letters; but two Dutch and one French
mail have arrived. By the Dutch mails we have some im.
portant information.
A private letter from Amsterdam states that the Dictator of
Poland has resigned his office. Should this information prove
correct, there must be a great division, or some treachery,
amongst the Poles.

FRASER'S MAGAZINE.

" The Repeal of the Union" is a remarkably
well written article—so far as manliness and
energy of expression are concerned—though
conceived in a very mistaken spirit. The writer
unhesitatingly asserts that Ireland is lost, but
that one slight chance of safety remains for both
countries, and that is by the repeal of the Eman-
cipation Bill. It will puzzle the most inveterate
blunderer to broach a more absurd or mischievous
propos;tion than this. " A Day in Kent" is a
lively rambling sort of rhapsody, wherein Hogg,
the Ettrick shepherd, figures with quite a dray
matie effect. " The Only Daughter" is an af-
fecting tale, told with much tenderness and sim-
plicity. It reminds us of the best stories of Mr.
Moir. " Lady Morgan's France" is a clever

and ironical review of a work which, with much
ability, affords much scope for ridicule. "On
the Vote by Ballot" is a vehement diatribe against
this universally popular project of election. The
remaining articles are clever, but call for no par-

titular notice. But, indeed, smartness and
energy are tile chief characteristics of this Ma-
gazine.

DRAMATIC MAGAZINE.

A serviceable record of the leading dramatic
events of the month, embellished with a portrait
of Mr. Macreaay, who is exhibiting much pas-
sion, to the imminent danger of his equilibrium,
as King Henry the Fifth. The attitude of
the tragedian in this portrait reminds us of the
leaning tower at Pisa.
