NEW TORY CLUB.—We stated some days ago, on
the authority of a Tory journal, that an off-shoot of
the Carlton was to be " called into existence," and in
doing s i expressed our belief that there was a split in
the Conservative body. From what has come to our
knowledge since, it appears our inference was correct.
The Buckinghams, and. Canterburys, and Neelds,
wanted the old Carlton to pledge itself to the main-
tenance of the Corn-laws unmitigated, and to all the
high doctrines of the Tory school, but not meeting
with support_from the moderate party, they voted for
a secession,_ and ,off they fly to form a new hive.
The ultra Tory papers are anxious to impress on their
readers the conviction, that all this is only a proof of
the increase of Conservatism, while it is the best pos-
sible proof of the spread of dissent. The house is
divided against itself. Sir Robert Peel will not
go the " whole hog," and the Buckinghamites are
herefore determined to open business on their own
account. They cannot forgive Peel's backslidings, his
denunciation of the Orange " vagabonds," his advocacy
of free commercial intercourse ; and his eternal lectures
about patience and prudence, while they are fully pre-
pared, and also able, in their own opinion, to take both
the Palace and Downing-street by storm. Their rage
against their nominal leader is intense, and though con-
cealed by the more prudent of the party, it has dis-
tinctly displayed itself lately in several parts of the
country, and threatens one day some grand eruption.
A part of the plan, also, is to establish a Journal of
their own, which shall respond cordially to the outpour-
ings of the Brad haws and M'Ghees, and far surpass
any of the present day in London, in exciting the ani-
mosity of one portion of the community against another.
We hear the Club is to be called the " Brunswick."
The " Cumberland" would be a fitter name.

PATRONISED BY THE ROYAL FAMILY.—

mended the Patent Amber Spectacles of Mr. E. Soiomons

sess considerable advantages over the ordinaryglasses, are lighter

flamed eyes—are invaluable assistants to persons reading, writ-

cal sounds, and the lowest whisper breathed at a public assembly,

to afford instant relief to all persons labouring ender the dis-
tressing sCheont of ileafness.—Observe, 36, Old Bond-street,
and 1, Old Jewry, City.
WOODEN PAVEMENT.—At a meeting of the
Southampton Board, held April 23, it was unanimously agreed
to pave Bargate and part of High-street, with wooden blocks,
similar to those laid down opposite Whitehall, London. Captain
Ward, at a previous meeting of the Board, was requested to
inspect the Whitehall pavement, and report thereon ; and
be bore testimony to its utility and improvement over any
other mode hitherto adopted. Bordeaux Courier, May 1,
1540.--IVood Paveitient is now a subject under discussion, and
one of our streets is to be paved forthwith on the same princi-
ple as that laid at Whitehall, London, with the gteatcst success
If we may judge from the models we have seen, this invention
appears to us as ingenious as useful—and advantageous by its
durability and evenness of surface. We shall very soon be able
to judge from our own experience of the superiority of this
pavement, which will almost assimilate the thoroughfares of our
streets to the inlaid floors of our saloons.
