NA 'FIONA I. STONE-WA COMPANY.

THECommittee of the NATIONAL STONE-
WA Y CO3l PA N Y announce to the Shareholders and
the Public in general, that they are now occupied in securing
a large and regular supply of the very best Granite on advan-
tageous terms; and that, as early as possible, ocular demon-
stration will be given in various parts of the Metropolis. of the
utility and convenience of the Company's Plan.

It appears by a communication from St. Petersburgh, of
which a copy is subjoined, that this invention has been acted
upon in that Capital with decided success. From the difficulty
of obtaining stone at Petersburgh, the Ways have been con-
structed of timber; but whether formed of that material or of
stone, it is obvious that a plane surfacs, must diminish the
friction of wheels. The principle in both is equally obvious
and useful ; but the durability of stone gives it a decided pre-
ference.

In Naples, Milan, and other Cities of Italy, stone-ways have
been adopted, and are found to answer the most sanguine ex.
pectstions that had been formed of their utility.

" PETEIISMURGit, JUNE 11.

" lo the principal streets in our Capital, wooden-ways are
being laid down on both aides, on which the carriages run
sm,,oth, and without noise. Such ways are now making in the
Newsky Perspictine, and will be continued to Zarskojeselo.—
Such roads were laid down last summer from this city to Kam-
meiioz Ostroff, and gave gentral satisfaction. The first ex.
pence is paid by the Imperial treasury; the future repairs will
be defrayed by the householders."

The throng of strangers who visit the Duke of
A Titot.t.'s beautiful grounds at Dunkeld is now very great,
and they are shown with a degree of liberality which every
Thane in the country would do well to imitate. Any decently
dressed person, on application to the gardener, receives permis-
sion to s,t_ every thing that is interesting, on condition of tak-
ing a guide with him, who receives a trifling gratuity for his
trouble. About 600 persons had availed themselves of this privi-
lege between the Ist of May and the time when we called there,
July 10 ; and the whole number who visited the grounds, in the
course of last year. exceeded 2000. The book where the visi-
tors subscribe their names exhibits a medley of men of all
tongues and nations Spaniards, Italian 4, Germans, Russians,
with unpronounceable titles, strangers from " farthest Inde,"
and froru the shores of the Pacific Ocean. It is a curious fact,
that the Duke had received proposals from three or four indi-

[IIItITISII PRESS.]

Mr. O'Connel is, at length, beginning to per-
ceive that to be the leader of a party is not pre.
cisely that enviable post that, in the fondness of
anticipation, he had imagined it to be. He seeks
to be emancipated, and even hints his willingness
that through the influence and aid of his " friend
Cobbett" his release could be brought about.
" 1 wi,b," says he, very pathetically, " he could
deprive me of my leadership' among the Catho-
lics ; I assure him it is a very troublesome
commodity." This we can readily believe;
it is a commodity, however, which, we should
think, would easily find a market. There is
seldom a want of bidders at the auction
of popularity ; cela ne se you pus souvent ;
in the cause of any party, or sect, or fac-
tion, of any kind, the difficulty is to get the
lead, not to get rid of it. There never yet was
a man loaded with power and authority, of what-
ever sort, but he could find candidates with-
out number willing to take the burden off his
hands. But we suspect that Mr. O'Connell, in
offering up,his prayer to his " friend Cobbett,"
is not quite sincere, and that like the country-
man in the fable, that invoked the aid of Death,
when he came in good earnest to his assistance,
lie would return his courtesy with many thanks,
but decline to trouble him. The Rev. Mr. Kin-
sella's long letter to the Dublin Evening Post
s,erns to have been the first provocation that
has brought Mr. O'Connell to a sense of repent-
ance, and made him feel uneasy in his seat. He
certainly, and somewhat to our surprise, inter-
lards his remonstrance to his Reverend assailant
with an ample share of adulation. Courtesy,
even in its excess, is an amiable quality; but it
has its times and occasions. There is a manliness,
of torso which unjust avcusation justifies ; and
in repelling calumny the language of compli-
Qient it out of place. So applied, It bears

the stamp of insincerity. Mr.O'Connell's anxiety
to display " the ornament of a meek and quiet
spirit" is overwrought. It would seem to tread
as if shoed with felt, like Lcar's imaginary
troops of horse, in the sacred presence of the
Rev. Mr. Kinsella, lest he should for a moment
interrupt the repose of his conscience, or give the
slightest disturbance to his contemplation. Al-
though feeling avowedly " all the bitterness of
reproach" which the holy father had cast upon
his character although manifestly indignant
that " without any previous inquiry he should
be treated in print as an asserter of falsehood,
and .roved historically and chronologically to be a
liar"—enough of all conscience to curdle the
milk of human kindness in the vein even of an
Irish saint : and sitting down to reply, as well
he might, " in the spirit of humiliated pride and
mortified vanity"—yet such is the enviable ascend-
ancy of his mildness, under all this provocation,
that he dreads nothing so much as the appearance
of having taken offence at it.

T lIE ARMY.

SvVENTY-SECOND RECI3IENT.—We understand that,
in consequence of the various services rendered by the 72d regi-
ment, during the late disastrous fires, and the praiseworthy be-
bar ou• of the corps since it has been quartered in the Castle,
t' e Lord Provost and Magistrates have granted permission
ti the regiment to beat up for recruits within the city and
1 berties. The appearance of this fine corps, on the King's birth-
thy, was at once attractive and imposing. The bail(' is good ;
a-id the keyed bugles, in particular are admirably played.—
Of this, however, the inhabitants of Edinburgh have
,only
an opportunity of judging when they change to be saunter-
ing on Prince's-street, at the hour of tattoo. Four or five
summers ago, we ronember having seen the band of a
very fine regiment, then quartered in the Castle (the 13th, we
b
which is so gloriously distinguished in the recent dis-
from India), assemble two or three evening in every

tendon is still spoken of with delight; and we are sure nothing
world give more pleasure than the renewal of such a treat.—

BUCKINGHAM PALACE.

The KING spent two hours on Saturday after-
noon at his Palace in St. James's Park, that which belonged to
his late Royal Mother. llis Majesty arrived there at three
o'clock, and remained till about five. He was attended there
by Sir Charles Long, Mr. Nash, Mr. Brent, &c. His Ma-
jesty went over the whole of the upper apartments, including
the suite of rooms level with the Grand Hall, giving his com-
mand respecting their future arrangements. To accomplish
the repairs and alterations mithoutloss of time, the numvrous
persons and families residing in the Palace received official no-
tice, last Wednesday, to remove and quit possession immedi-
ately, and in consequence several quitted possession during the
last four days, and the others will remove forthwith. The two
wings of this Palace are about to be pulled down, and the
materials to be sold by auction by Mr. Eversiield. The south
wing consists of the lodge, the colonade, and the library, which
contains the books which his Majesty has presented to the nation
to form a -National Library, which are to be removed to the
Riding House to remain there till the Building at the British
Museum is ready for their reception. The north wing consists
of a kitchen, offices, &c. These alterations arc said to be ne-
cessary for the completion of a plan for building a new Palace,
upon an extensive and magnificent scale, for the future resi-
dence of the King, Which is- to be carried into effect with all
po:sible spied, so much so, that nineteen months is reported to
b;:t the time fixed upon for the completion of the building, Sce

MERCHANT SEAMEN'S BIBLE SOCIETY.

A meeting of this Society, Admiral Lord Ex-
MOUTH in the Chair, took place in the Great Room of the
City of London Tavern, on Saturday, which was very fully
attended, and distinguished by a numerous and brilliant assem-
blage of elegant females. Among the company on the plat-
form were Litt Suffield, Sir George Rose, Bart., Captain
William Young, R.N., Captain Charles Mortlock, of the Hon.
East India Company's Service, Rev. Mr. Marshall, Curate of
Islington, and a number of Dissenting Ministers. The Report,
which was read, by the Secretary, stated the sales to have been
progressively increasing. The number of Bibles and Tes-
taments sold at Gravesend last year, at half the cost price,
was 1,037; and the number left on board 'different ships for
the use of destitute seamen, which were not paid for, was 318;
'besides' which there had been sold to seamed in the coasting
trade, at three-fourths the cost' price, 411 Bibles and Testa-
ment; making the total of their distribution at Gravesend and
in the Port of London, during the last year, amount to 1.766.
Periodical-Reports of the Society's Agents at Gravesend and
in London, together with the testimony of Owners, Captains.,
Pilots, Custom-House Officers, and many others, comuni-
rated to the Committee, afforded evidence of' the strongest
kind, and the most gratifying in its nature, as to the bene-
ficial change now operating on the minds of seamen in -ge-
neral, through the agency of this and other kindred Societiei,
which was indeed apparent from the very sensible alteration
which had- already been effected in the moral -character and
the great • change in the habits of sailors,- which had been
brought about since the commencement of their labours.' The
Committee, 'though unwilling to complain, could not but regret
that the amount of 'the Annual Subscriptions was by-no means
adequate to- the prosecution-of the Society's benevolent plans ;
it had never exceeded 2071. in any one year; and in the last
year it did not exceed 204. 13s. ,They, therefor; wished the
friends of the Institution to exert themselves.

Lord Suffield, Sir George Ro4e, Capt. Mortlock; and Lord
Exmouth, severally addressed the meeting.

UNFORTUNATE FORTUNErTEI4LER

MARLBOROUGH-STREET.—Sarah Louis was brought up
by Mr. Henry Prior, on it charge of being found concealed in
his. cellar on Tuesday night.--11r. Prior, who occupies the
principal part of the house, No. 63, Great George-street, had,
about a fortnight ago, taken into his service a girl newly ar-
rived from the country, and entirely ignorant of town. With
this"girl the prisoner, under the pretext of carrying about pm.
cushions for sale, bad contrived to form an acquaintance. From
selling pincushions she gradually began to intimate-her skill in
the mysteries of fortune-telling, and to represent herself us a
" cunning woman," who could lift up the veil from the ob-
scurest events of futurity: Our young maiden, over whose
head some sixteen or seventeen summers may have shed their
sunshine, yielding to the impulse of that sovereign attribute
of the fair daughters of Eve,
,4 Which for an apple damned mankind,"
consented 'to introduce the wise woman into the kitchen. Ac-
cording to pre-agreement, she took with her-a, pack of " the
devil's pictures," so bethumbed and blackered, that kings and
queens and 'knaves, with all their et cetera of aces and deuces,
had ceased to have anyvisible distinction. They had completed
the charm, and the " coming events" of the young maid's life
had been shadowed forth, not in "dim and distant perspective,"
not in obscure and symbolic intimations, but in the visible and
tangible form of a -promised sweetheart ; .and the book of fate
Was scarcely closed when the knocker announced " master's
presence. Our enchantress instantly charmed herself into the
cellar, whither, in consequence of some previous warning, she
was pursued•by Mr. Prior. When called on for her defence,
she hemm'd and ha'd, and wept, and entreated, and protested,
but to no purpose. I shall convict you, said Mr. Ron, the
,•sittingMagistrate, of
going about as a rogue and vagabond,
pretending and professing to practise the art and mystery of
tellingfortunes. She was accordingly committed to the House
of Correction, to be kept to hard labour for 2 months.

An exellent method of seasoning deal and

this by drying them afterwards in the air or sun,
will render thew much harder, and prevent them
shrinking.

The Nantucket Inquirer says, that the ship Swift recently
landed at that port more than three thousand barrels of sper-
maceti oil, making nearly one hundred thousand gallons. This
is unil9ubtedly the largest cargo of spermaceti oil ever carried

thousand dollars. The. Swift was absent but little more than
twenty-eight months.—(New York Paper.)

The Missouri country, our readers all know, abounds in
mineral wealth. Few of them, however, on this side of the
Mississippi, have a just conception of the extent to which its
mines are already worked. Some idea of it may be formed from
the fact that the quantity of lead which arrived at the great
shipping port of New Orleans, in the various forms of pigs,
bars, and shot, 'amounted, in the two years ending Ist October
last, to seven millions and a ballot' pounds. This quantity is
exclusive of the great amount consumed in the States of Mis-
souri, Illinois, Indiana,
_Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, .slissis-
sippi, Alabama, Western, and Pennsylvania, and the
Territories of Missouri, Arkansas, and Michigan. The number
of persons employed in Making lead, the SI. Louis Republican
informs us, isigreater now than any time heretofore. Iron ore
abounds in the same country, but is not worked, though the
consumption there would afro-I.d a ready market for iron.-(.lVa-
tional Intelligencer, No. 18.)
NEW ORLEANS, OcT. 25.—We have conversed with a
person who left Campeachy on the Bth of this month. He in-
formed us that there were armaments preparing there, and not
an American vessel in port. The commanding officer in Yuca-
tan, had lately been changed. The country was perfectly
quiet. Our informant stated that the prices of produce and
goods varied so much from day to day, that it would be useless
to give any qufAations.
IIavANNAn, Nov. B.—As anticipated, this market is en-
tirely overstocked with flour—since 10th October, 21,000 bar-
rels have arrived, and 131 dol. per bbl. is the most now offered.
Considerable losses must take place, particularly as every ar-
ticle of export is at least from 12 to 15 per cent. higher than the
markets in the United States will afford.

LAW INTELLIGENCE-

COURT OF CHANCERY, Dec, 20.
LADY ANSON V. BRITISH MINING COMPANY-.
Mr. PEPYS and Mrs. BICKERSTETH were heard in c°ll'
tinuation of the argument of yesterday, in support of the m?-,
tion tbr injunction and account as to the working of cer"ll,
mines which the plaintiff claims to hold shares, some in Pr',
.
nership and others as security.
Mr. HEALD, for the defendants, rested for the present uP°ll
the insufficiency of the proceedings, there being only three
persons eut of the whole company before the Court.
The LORD CHANCELLOR observed, that Lady Anl4/1:44
claim might admit of two definitions—that of partnership an
that of mortgagee. If that claim were to be pursued under pe
.
latter character, the remedy would be by foreclosure and salt;
if the first, then there must be sale with dissolution of pat''
nership. But how was he to decide for either with only WI:
of the defendants, out of a great number who were interesteu
before this Court ?
His Lordship rose early, having to attend the Connell' t°
receire the Recorder's report.

POLICE INTELLIGENCE.

Bow-sTnErT.—Eninra Nash, the girl rho was supposed
to have been the female found drowned near Waterloo-bridge,
a few days ago, on whom an Inquest has alre;:dy sat, gave
yesterday evident tokens of being still alive and merry. :she
was brought up before his Worship, charged with riotous
and disorderly conduct, very unbecoming in a dead woman,
last night, in the streets, in consequence of which she had
been taken to the watch-house no less than three several
times, but had been dismissed as often by the night constable,
on a promise of better behaviour. On her fourth appearance
there the patience of that officer was exhausted, and the mo.
dern Vampire was now brought up to be lain in the Red Sea,
or otberwise secured as their Worships might think advisable.
in order to prevent her
" Revisiting thus the glimpses of the moon,
Making night hideous."
Miss Nash's defence was, that she was not dead, but tipsy,
which being thought an aggravation rather than an excuse, she
was ordered of-Ito the House of Correction for two months. la
going out of the Office she availed herself of the opportunity of
giving the watchman a parting blessing, in the shape of a nox
of the ear, which made his eyes flash fire.
James Hawkins, alias White, who was remanded on Friday
last was yesterday fully committed for trial, for having returned
to this country, having been sentenced to transportation far
life.

The death of ALEXANDER has created a di-

money market. Consols closed yesterday at 804,
and opened this morning at 8O- The market
gradually advanced to 81i, but afterwards re.
ceded to 811, the quotation at 1 o'clock.
The stoppage of the Bath and Bristol Banks
of Messrs. CAVANAGH and Co.,_ with Other
rumoured pauses in the West, threw a damp on
the Market, notwithstanding the strenuous
exertions of the Bulls. A pressing Money
sale of Consols at 701, by permission of
the Bank, also conduced to repress their ardour.
Money has been easy in the .house—the

FRENCH PAPERS.

( From the Etoile dated Wednesday, Sept. 7.)
PARIS, SEPT. 6.—lt is-said that M. Latitte
be the contractor for the St. Domingo loan.
We have received the following letter from
Corfu, dated August 10:—
Three days ago the Seraskier attempted a
fourth attack on Missolonghi, with 6,000 men
divided into 3 corps—one of Montenegrins, one
of 2,000 Sectariots, and the 3d of 2,000 Asiatic.
—These troops succeeded in making themselves
masters of several parts of the fortifications, and
kept their ground for some time, but they were
at length driven out with considerable . loss,
which is stated at 3,000 men, killed, wounded,
and prisoners. It is added, that the loss of the
Turks would have been still more considevable
Jut for the stratagem of one of their leaders,
named 'fair Abasi, who had an understanding
with the Greeks, and who took advantage of it
to retard the march of the latter, by informing
-them of a danger which did not exist.
. The Greek fleet, consisting of 40 armed ves-
sels, and 12 fire-ships, has re-appeared near
?atm. The Capital) Pacha has retreated under
the protection of the forts, after having exchang-
.ed with it a few shuts.

The following is an extract of the news that
have been in circulation for a few days :—" On
the sth the captain of a vessel from Zante says,
that soon after his departure ell the Ist of the
month, he saw at a distance the Greek and the
Turkish fleets engaged, and that soon after he
discovered a Greek brig, vvhich he presumed to
-be a fire-ship, fighting in the. midst of 6 Turkish
frigates. The captain, continuing his voyage,
lost sight of the two fleets. but heard for a long
=time a heavy cannonade."
We expect with impatience the details of the
•meeting of Mianlis with the Capitan Pacha.--
Sachtoury, with 28 ships and 10 lire-ships under
-'Canari,.is gone to attack, in the port of Alexan-
.dria, the Egyptian fleet preparing there for ano-
ther expedition. The English frigate which ar-
-rived yesterday, the 9th of August, from Napoli
and Missolonghi, reports that the M oreots shewed
`inexcusable weakness and cowardice, but that
-the Romeliots displayed admirable courage, per-
severance, and patriotism. The-arrival of the
Greek fleet has been a great advantage to Misso-
longhi, where water had been scarce for some
days, though the English frigate had put in there
and landed almost all the water it had on board.
'The Greek feet had supplied the place with
.eatery thing that it wanted: and, it is affirmed that
