NEIV MONTHLY BELLE ASSEMBLE.

There is abundance both of verse and prose in this Num-
ber, in the shape of songs and elegies, and talcs of senti-
ment ; but the prose, as might be expected, is superior to
the poetry. The Number is got up with care, and as it is
cheap in price, and amusing in the quality and variety of its
contents, we dare say it will become a favourite with its
fair readers.

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE in the TEMPLE

About half-past five this morning a most destructive and
alarming fire broke out in the Chambers of Mr. Maule, the
eminent Queen's Counsel, and one of the Members for the
county of Carlow, at No. 14, Paper-buildings in the Temple.
It is said that the Hon. and Learned Gentleman had been up late
the previous night, being engaged in preparing for circuit, and
that in retiring to rest, he forgot to extinguish the candle which
he had left lighted in his sitting room. He was alarmed by
the smoke which, which towards morning had nearly filled his
bed-room, and he had hardly time to escape, and give the
alarm before the entire furniture of /the apartment was in flames.
The fire-engine belonging to the Temple was instantly brought
to the spot, but from the difficulty of procuring a sufficient
supply of water, and the astonishing rapidity with which the
fire spread, the whole of the building, with those immediately
adjoining it, were soon •in flames. ' Several other engines
soon afterwards arrived, and being most effectually worked by
a party of constables of the F division the progress of tae
fire, which had now extended to Nos. 12 and 13, was at length
checked, but not until the whole of these houses were reduced
to ruins. Luckily no lives have been lost, and the only acci-
dent that we could hear of was a severe injury sustained by
one of the firemen belonging to the West of England Insurance
Office, upon whom some of the burning rafters fell.
He was immediately conveyed to the station-house in Water-
loo-road, and is, we understand, doing well.
The actual amount of property consumed is not considerable ;
but it is said that a number of valuable deeds and papers, in-
cluding all the documents connected with a peerage
case which is now before Parliament, and which
were kept in the Attorney-General's chambers, have
been destroyed. Mr. Follett, brother of Sir William Follett,
who occupied Chambers in No. 13, and who has been for
some time confined to bed with rheumatism, would have
perished in the flames, but for the assistance of some
friends who remembering his helpless condition, broke into his
apartments, and succeeded in conveying him in safety to
brother's chambers. Too much praise cannot be given to Mr.
Braidwood and the police of the F Division, for the activity with
which they exerted themselves. A party of Artillerymen
under the command of Captain Dixon, was also in attendance,
and gave most efficient assistance. Owing to their combined
exertions, a large portion of the furniture of the different
chambers was saved.
The following are the names of the gentlemen who
have been sufferers by the fire, and whose offices arid
chambers have been destroyed :—Mr. Maule, the Attorney-
General, Mr. Barker, Mr. Thomas Mess, Messrs. Black-
lock and Bunce, Mr. Follett, Mr. Cole, Messrs. Wright
and Maitland, Mr. Hilles, Mr. Parkley, Mr. Busby,
Mr. Boodle, Mr. Martin, Mr. Collett, Mr. Worsley, Mr.
Shee, Mr. Pardel, Mr. Whyman, Mr. Garrett, Mr. Whit-
more, and Mr. Onslow.

FIRE INSURANCES.

Colonel SIBTUORP wished to aik the Chancellor of th•
Exchequer if he would ensure hilm an opportunity to bring
on his motion relative to the duty on fire insurances, the first
thing in a Committee of supply to-morrow?
The CHANCELLOR of the EXCIIEQUER said there
was no necessity tor him to make any concession to the Hon.
and Gallant Member on the subject, 3ceause he would have a
perfect right to bring it on if he thought fit, by moving it as
an amendment to the Order of the Day for going into a Com-
mittee of Supply..

THE NATIONAL MAGAZINE,

We cannot speak in terms of commendation of the
articles in the National for this month. They are all, with
scarcely an exception, heavy and common-place in the last
degree. "On the Intellectual Tendency of the Age" is a
a clever repetition of an opinion which has been repeated
in a variety of shapes in half the periodicals of the day.
The " Portraits of the Spanish Christino Generals" have
been drawn fifty times better in every daily newspaper in
London. But it would be ridiculous to dignify such im-
perfect outlines with the name of portraits ; they arc mere
pencillings of a feature or two, and will enable no reader
unacquainted with the subjects of them to form any true
conception of the character of these officers. " Scraps from
my Note-book in Colombia" are only less tiresome
than a voyage on board a Dutch merchant-vessel to the
country in which they were picked up. In plain English,
we have been of late so drugged with " scraps" and
extracts" from " note-books," that the very sight of any-
thing of the kind affects us like an attack of cholera.
The Book-notices are very well written, and the Reviews in
general appear to us exceedingly just and impartial.
Among the best, we would point out the Review of the
" Life of Dr. Macnish, the Modern Pythagorean" of
Blackwood, which is evidently written by some gentleman
who knew the Doctor almost as intimately as his biographer.

THE DUBLIN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.
Holdsworth.

This Magazine has reached us so late, that we cannot
do more than glance at its contents this month. It seems
a choice Number in every respect. The " Tale of the
Sea" opens well ; and if sustained with equal vigour of fancy
and versification through the forthcoming cantos, will obtain
for its author a no slight share of public notice. The second
article on Turkish poetry is quite as interesting as the first.
We recommend it to the notice of the lovers of Oriental
literature. " Rickard the Rake" is too grave for shoulder-
ing► a shillelah at a fair,—playing Father Dowds and his
six Sons at a wake—and courting behind a turf-stack by
moonligitt—the usual employments of a rake in Ireland.
The." Orphans of Dunasker" is continued in this Number.

TO THE ELECTORS OF MARYLEBONE.

GENTLEXEN
THOUGH the result of the late contest has
neither corresponded to the just expectations nor the stre-
nuous efforts of the Liberal party, it does honour to your energy
and zeal, and it justifies me for baring responded to your wishes.
I believe that the Reformers will now, more than ever, awaken
to a real sense of the necessity of organization, of union, and above
all, of action.
I rejoice in the opportunity which this contest has given me of
forming the acquaintance, perhaps I may say of cultivating- the
friendship, of a large body of enlightened, consistent, and genuine
Reformers, whose support I must ever consider as one of the most
honourable incidents of my life.
To them, and to all the Liberal voters, I tender my warmest
thanks. I shall ever remember the kind feeling they have dis-
played, the efforts which they have made, and the sacrifices which
many of them have nobly undergone.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Yor faithful friend and servant,

THE SPORTSMAN.

The Number before us contains two very superior plates,
engraved by one of the best artists of the day. One is en-
titled the " Young Falconer," and the other " Snipe
Shooting." The latter is a rule rustic landscape, with a
sterile, inhospitable moor in front, covered with snow,
through which creeps a languid, half-frozen stream, and with
a cottage in the back-ground, exposed apparently to all the
winds of Heaven. This homely scene, which is thoroughly
Elglish in its character, reminds us of those which Mor-
lald was so fond of painting. Of the contents of the Num-
bar we do not feel qualified to pronounce a decided
opinion, for we have but a so-so acquaintance with the
science of field-sports. We may state, however, that we
have read the account of a " Bear-hunt" with much
pleasure.

ELECTION COMMITTEES.
(THIS DAY.)

LONDON.

Tho Committee met as usual at eleven o'clock, when

Mr. Olding was examined by Mr. TnEssiona—He had looked over
the accounts of Travers and Son that morning, and found no account
opened for the purpose of the election. There were hundreds of sums
paid in during the time, both before and alter the election. He knew
of no sums paid iu by any of the Members, either to Travers' account
or any other for the purposes of the election. He had all the books present
and they were open for inspection. A groat many cheques were drawn by
Travers and Son at the time of the election. He knew of no
cheque drawn by Mr. John Travers—all were drawn in the name of
Travers and Son. There was no cheque for 1001. payable to Wasters ;
on the 12th of July there was one cheque paid to Croucher, 50/. ; a like
sum on the 13th ; also on the 17th. '2oth July, Croucher 3001. ;
22d July, 2001.; 24th July, 2001. ; 27th July, 200/.; 28th July, 2001.;
'29th July, 2001. ; 17th August, 2001.
Mr. Tti Et:SWIM asked for the Waste Book, which Mr. Olding said he
objected to give up the books to any inspection, as ho considered it would
be betraying the confidence placed in them.
The CIIAUVIAN said it was the unanimous opinion of the Committee
that Counsel might ask any question of the witness, but should not in.
spect the books. There was no payment made to Tijou. No payment
made to Parcas. In June there were 84,0001. paid to Messrs. Travers'
account.

Charles Brown was called, but did not answer.
Mr. Massie:Ea said the time had now arrived when it was proper to
discuss the question of agency. He proposed to give evidence of the
declarations and acts of Mr. Croucher, as the agent of the sitting Mem-
bers. He had accumulated sufficient acts to prove that Mr. C. tilled
that position.
Mr. HAIIRTSO'N objected to such a course, as no member was
responsible for any act unless it was his, own, or that of an Authorised
agent. The acts of a snb-agent sould not bind him, or any indiscreet
friend, actuated by party zeal, might make void any election. They
had never shown Croucher at all in communication with the sitting
Members.
Mr. THESSIGER recapitulated the evidence at great length, and con.
tended that if direct agency could be gathered from the act of any one,
it was in the present case.
The room was cleared for about an hour. Counsel and agents having
beon again admitted, were informed that the Committee did not think
that agency had been proved.
Mr. Tucsstoaa then at once gave up the general case against the
sitting Member, and would confine his endeavours to seat Mr. Palmer
strictly to a scrutiny. As he had fully anticipated a very different de.
cision from the Committee, be was not prepared to go on with the
scrutiny, and would beg of the Committee then to adjourn.
The Committee acceded, and accordingly adjourned till to-morrow, at
eleven o'clock.

IZEPItIMA ND

Captain PEcnEn...—" flow did be dare, in the House of
Lords, to uttevluch a falsehood?"
Lord BROULHAM.—" The words were the most unjust,—the
most disordr•rly—the most indecorous, that, in the whole
Course of my life, I ever knew to be uttered in the presence
of 'Jim, whose duty it is preserve the decorum of debate.
\Nhat tight had they to charge me with an infamous offence?"
Mr. LANGDALE—The Bishop of:. -Exeter has charged me
with treachery, aggravated by -perjury." I say that the
charges are unworthy the charao*.er of a Prelate of the Church
of England, and can designate them only as falsehoods, aggra-
vated by duplicity.

FURTHER firGNS OF INIMIOVEMENT.
Sir EDWARD SrGns r. said he. was present, and his im-
pression was, that, the Right Rev. Prelate had shown
"marked and real tourtesy towards the Hon. Mrinber."
Lard Howletc begged to remark that "the words attri-
btred to him 3jy t h Right Rev. Prelate bore not the faintest
resemblance, to anything he had said."

METROPOLITAN.

The series of " Parliamentary Portraits," which is con-
tinued in this Number, furnishes us with details of the ora-
torical peculiarities of some of the staler minores of the
House of Commons. The correctest portrait is that of
Mr. Shaw Lefevre, who, however, is a better speaker than
the author gives him credit for. The Sonnet to Mrs. Ja-
mmu, on the publication of her " Characteristics of
Woman," is replete with poetic grace and beauty, and con-
veys a fine compliment to the intellectual powers of that
g:fted lady. In the " Note-book of an Irish Barrister"
we find some interesting, though rather florid, details, re-
specting the professional career of the present Master of
the Rolls in Ireland, Mr. O'Loughlin. " Moms, in the
Mediterranean" are rather prosy ; and the " Mariner's
Daughter," of average length and merit.

LONDON:
SATURDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 8, 1838.

The Sun of yesterday contained an account of a
meeting at Glasgow of the Radical Association, for
the purpose of adoptin regulations and appointing
g
office bearers. The hall was crowded to overflowing.
At this meeting the proposal to go for the repeal of
the Corn-laws was scouted, as quite insufficient, and
the Glasgow Argus was said to have again gone
wrong in advocating that view. To join in the
agitation to obtain a repeal of the Corn-laws,
was said to be " frittering away their strength,"
and one of the principal speakers condemned the
commendation of the Chairman for even pro-
io;ing to give the least assistanci to the Corn-
law agitation. At the .same time the Corn-laws
were denounced as " accursed," and one of the
a rongcst reccmmendations of Universal Suffrage was,
that without it they could not get the Corn-laws re-

SOULT AND WELLiNGTON

SUN."
THE SUN.—The spirited proprietor of The Sun is deter-
mined that no eclipse of his gory shall take place in his
(lay. In The Sun of At.gast 3th he has given two beauti-
ful medallions of Ilarshal Souk and the Duke of Welling-
ton, executed in the new style of engraving, and worth at
least five shillings each as works of art. As The Sun has
hitherto outstripped all his contemporari
•s in liberality of
principles, recent news, and public spirit, so be has left
immeasurably in the rear, all the efforts which have hem
made to effect a sale liv newspaper pictures.—Shrfficki Iris.
" TIIE SUN" NEW;PAPEII.—It must be admitted that
Air. Young is the most enterprising of newspaper proprie-
tors ; the well-known express editions of The Sun arc enor-
mously expensive, and now Mr. Young has adopted another
costly mode of obtaining celebrity and obliging the public
lit the same time. We have before us a copy of The Sun,
"ntaining medallion portraits of the Duke of Wellington
and Marshal Souh, executed in the first style of art, to ac-
complish which must have occasioned a serious outlay.
We have no hesitation in saying that this is by far the most
splendid specimen of newspaper printing ever seen.—Boston
-Herald.

COBBETT CLUB AND THE SUN.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN:

94, Fleet-street, Sept. 6, 1838.
Silt,—At a meeting of the Cobbett Club, held yesterday,
the following► resolution was unanimously agreed to :
" That the thanks of this Club be given to the Editor
of The Sun, for his having so readily given insertion to our
Petition for Annual Parliaments : Universal Suffrage :
Vote by Ballot : No Property Qualcation for Members :
and for the Payment of Members for their services."
I was directed to communicate this vote of thanks, which
I do with great cheerfulness, seeing that they are awarded
to a gentleman who, though differing with us in political
opinions, is ready, not merely not to obstruct us in promul-
gating those opinions, but to afford us the means of making
Ahem known, and that too even at some inconvenience to

from age, neglect, disease at the Gums, the use of Calomel, or
any other cause, They have also discove!ed a NEW COMPOST
TION fur ARTIFICIAL TEETH A peculiar advantage attending
Teeth made from this SUBSTANCE is, that they are totally 'roper
vious to acids. ARTIFICIAL '1 BETH have hitherto beea found ob-
jectionable by INVALIDS taking MEDICINES which have a tendency
to DISCOLOUR them, and by persons of bilious habits. Messrs. M. have
been successful In obviating these objections by their NEW DISCO-
VERY, and they can fix the above without extracting the STUMPS, er
causing any incumbrance, mot even en GUMS of the most tender nature,
?rotecting the adjoining Teeth, however loose. No WIRES or LIGA

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

Sta,—Perceiving a report of a Public Meeting in your
Paper of yesterday, headed " Working Men's Association,"
and at which meeting censure was expressed towards the
Scotch Delegates, I beg to inform your readers that it was
not a meeting of the London Working Men's Association, but
that of the St. Pancras Association.

I remain, your obedient servant,

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

BUNGAY, DEC. 17, 1838.
Sru,—l send a guinea, which I will thank you t'o convey
by some means to Llanelly, towards defraying the expenses
incurred by the imprisonment of Mr. James in Caermarthen
jail. I have deferred this for a fortnight, in the daily expec-
tation that some steps would be taken for this purpose by
some of the Societies in London. I hope this persecution,
and the spirit in which it appears to have been taken up
and carried on, will teach Dissenters the false position in
which they are placed by consenting to become office-bearers
in a State-endowed Church.

The form of a Church• Warden's oath was as follows :
" You shall swear truly and faithfully to execute the
office of Church-Warden within your parish, and according
to the best of your skill and knowledge present such things
and persons as toyour knowledge are presentableby the laws
ecclesiastical of this realm : so help you God and the con-
tents of this book."

But now the Church-Wardens are required, by the .sth
and 6th William IV., to make a declaration to this effect
instead of taking the oath.
Let Dissenters, instead of making such a declaration as
the above, quietly leave their Church neighbours to con-
duct their own affairs, neither attwling,-their Vestries, nor
doing any thing to obstruct them in the execution of their
duty, but only remain passive under the operation of the
law, the and strife which at present prevails on this
subject in nearly every parish in the kingdom, will very
soon subside into tranquility and peace.
I am, Sir, your obedient se'vant,

BRIGHTON:

BRIGHTON, WEDNESDAY, DEC. 19.—1 n consequence
of the slight fatigue her Majesty underwent yesterday in
the performance of the journey from Windsor to Brighton
she has not been out to-day ; neither have we seen the
Duchess of Kent nor any of the Royal suite in public.
The Royal dinner party, by invitation this evening, will
comprise the Earl and Countess Cowper, Sir George Ha-
milton Seymour, Colonel Berkeley Drummond, Colonel
Stawell (12th Lancers), Hon. Major Keppel, and the Earl
of Surrey.
The calls at the Palace this day have been exceedingly
numerous. Among the most distinguished are—The
Dowager Lady Ellenborough and Miss Law, Earl and
Countess of Munster, Sir Willoughby and Lady Rooke,
Sir C. and Lady des Vceux, Duchess of Roxburgh, Mar-
chioness of Ailesbury, Dowager Lady Brovvnlow, Marchio-
ness of Thomond, Lord and Lady Ashley, Dowager
Countess of Charleville, Major and Mrs. Johnson, Earl
and Countess of Kinnoul, Marchioness and Ladies Corn-
wallis.

Her Majesty, on alighting from her carriage last night,
was received by the Earl of Surrey, Lord Treasurer ; Hon.
W. A. Murray, Master of the Household ; and Colonel
Berkeley Drummond, Commanding Officer of the Scots
Fusilier Guards. The Princess Augusta received the
Queen in the drawing-room.
The Royal dinner party comprised—The Duchess of
Kent, Viscount and Viscountess Torrington, Lady Mary
Stopford, Baroness Lehzen, Hon. Miss Murray, Hoa.
Miss Pitt, Hon. Mrs. Brand, Colonel Buckley, Hon.
Major Keppel, and the Earl of Surrey.
The Queen commanded the display of fireworks at half-
Past nine o'clock, in order that her Majesty and the Royal
Party might witness it from the Palace apartments. Our
resident pyrotechnist excelled himself, and we are informed
that the Queen expressed her gratification at the exhibition.
The second visit of the Queen to Brighton is a suffi-
lent refutation of the unfounded rumours of her Majesty's
dislike to the place, which were so industriously circulated
last year, immediately after the Queen's departure.
A Royal salute was fired from the battery this morning
at twelve o'clock in honour of her Majesty's visit. The
Funs were not fired last night in consequence of her Ma-
jesty's not having arrived till after sunset. It is said that
her Majesty was detained at Windsor in signing some state
Papers.
