most wonderful on record.

ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, Nov. 28, 1846.
This huge volume, the forty-eighth edition of the work, well sus-
tains the reputation enjoyed by the "Directory" of late years. In
the preface the proprietor maintains that the high character of the
work is not referable to its mere connexion with the Post-office ;
for an important change has been gradually introduced into the man-
ner of collecting the information ; and a larger portion of the work
than heretofore has been confided to selected agents entirely uncon-
nected with the Post-office, this being, in great part, the plan of
compiling the editions for 1845 and 1646. Nor has the proprietor
rested content with his past success, but has introduced many impor-
tant alterations in this volume for 1847, and added to its bulk with-
out any increase of price. The ' Postal Directory' is *specially Im-
proved, and there are numerous changes througl.out the volume, to
insure its completeness. The compilation must be a vast labour, to
ho accomplished only by systematic subdivision and the moat pains-
taking minuteness. The appearance of the volume has suggested a
very lively effusion, to be seen in another column; and we trust the
enterprising proprietor of the "Directory" will find that his labours
are duly appreciated and remunerated. To a great commercial
country this is an indispensable volume.
RAILWAY HERALD, Nov. 21, 1646.

The new volume of the Post-Wake Directory for 1847 is already
In our bands, and we Can only express our wonder that a work is
laborious, extensive, and minute, could be in any degree improved.
It would have been a sufficient merit to have maintained its forma'
reputation ; it is a great merit to have surpassed itself. The pro-
duction of a work unequalled for accuracy and for clearness has
placod in the hands of the commercial public a most valuable and
indispensable aid in carrying en the business of this 'vast metropolis,
which would indeed he subjected to the greatest ineonvenlence and
expense if it were not for a work of this kind. In a short time our
readers will have an opportunity of judging for themselves en pur-
chasing the new volume, whether our anticipatory notice is in any
degree exaggerated.
lIRRAPATH'.i RAILWAY JOURNAL, Nov. 91, 1846.
_ _ _

The Post-office Directory for 1847 appears with additions and
improvements anon its valuable predecessor, but with no enlarge•
meat in the price. The continued enterprising spirit with which
this important, and It is net a misapplication of terms to say,
national work is conducted, merits the highest commendation. We
know net whether the same illiberal and unjustifiable attempt will
be made in the ensuing session as was done in the last, to wrest it
from the hmds of the present proprietary, and to place it by the
force of might over right in the possession of Government. But
should it be attempted, surely the following statement of its con-
ductors will go home to the consciences, if they have any, of the
parties seeking to draw down the grasping interference of Govern-
ment. "It can only be necessary to refer to a copy of the work pub-
lished before the purchase of the copyright by its present proprietor.
to be convinced that the mere connexion of the ' Directory' with
the Post-office has little, if at all, contributed to its present high cha-
racter. That the improvements (the result of many years of un-
wearied toil and application on the part of these engaged in the com-
pilation of the work) are duly appreciated. Is now happily beyond all
question ; prior to the ' Directory' passing to its present proprietor,
rival books contended successfully with this. They have di-appeared."

DESTITUTION AND SICKNESS.
The affluent and benevolent are earnestly solicited to aid the
efforts new making by the Managing Committee of the ROYAL
FREE HOSPITAL, Gray's Inn-road, a charity established fb; the
relief of the foreigner, the stranger, the friendless, and the outcast,
when in sickness or disease, who are here received so far as the
means of the Institution will permit.
Neither patronage nor letters of recommendation are necessary ;
were it otherwise, the wretched beings for whose benefit the Institu-
tion is intended would not know how or where to obtlin them, and
while seeking for the means of admission would, in all probability,
perish unheeded and unknown; a melancholy Instance .oif which
kind gave rise to the fonndisik of this charity.
A large debt, which is how graduatty being reduced, still encum-
bers the operations of the Committee, but confiding in the spirit
and benevolence of an English public, in support of such a
charity, they fearlessly continue their efforts to meet the urgent
appeals daily mutant their gates by the most miserable and wretched
of the human race.

Red Lien Inn, and the Business attached to it, in all its branches ;
in which she trusts she shall meet with a contlnuaace of their

a comfortable Family Hotel ; to increase Its accommodation to those
agricultural friends who have ao long frequented it ; to extend Its
advantages as a Commercial Inn ; to pay unremitting attention to
the Posting Department; and, by selling none but the best Wines

to strive to gain the favourable opinion of every class of her
customers.

THE LIGHTS for FUTURE DAYS.
All can now be pleased, whatever is desired in Light. The
PEARL CANDLE LAMP is the perfection of Candle Lights, and
must succeed ; its simplicity myriads will admire. To sell the ordi-

been pestered with such rubbish.

The DIAMOND CARCEL OIL LAMP is the best oil light in the
world. The Camel Lamp is used in all the Palaces in Europe ; this
is sufficient guarantee for all—it never will be out-done.

The STARLIGHT NIGHT LIGHT is a beautiful little light to
illumine the bedchamber. All other night lights will be used no
more; its economy and simplicity all will admire, for what can be
desired more than perfection ? To what conclu-ion cat we come?
Certain, henceforward the only lights will be—the Sun, the mighty
gem of Heaven by day ; the Pearl and Diamond Lights at evening ;
and the Star at night, to illumine the British territory.

over and maintain them in Parliament— (Proposed by the Vice.
Chancellor of England, St. John's College; seconded by A. J. B.
Hope, Esq., M.P., Trinity College).-

the independence of his position, and his steady support of the in-
terests of the Church and the University, is eminently qualified to

Bitting at Cambridge.

CAMBRIDGE.—At a Meeting of the Members
of the Senate, held in the Combination Reorn of St. John's
College, Cambridge, this afternoon,
The MASTER of ST. JOHN'S in the Chair,
After a letter from Lord Powis, in reply to one from the Master of
St. John's, written after the meeting of the Heads of Houses, on
Monday last, had been read to the meeting,
It was resolved unanimously,—That the• beet thanks of this
meeting are due to Lord Fowls for his ready acquiescence in the wish
that he should become a candidate for the once of Chancellor of this
University, and that this meeting pledgee itself to use its utmost
efforts to promote his election.
Feb. 18,1847.

FIHE COMMITTEE for CONDUCTING the
JL ELECTION of the EARL OF POWIS to the Chancellorship
of the University of Cambridge beg to submit the following STATE-
MENT to the Members of the Senate:—
When by the lamented death of the late Chancellor it became ne -
cessary to consider the appointment of a successor, it was deemed
desirable to bring forward such a candidate as might be supposed to
be most acceptable to the general body of the Senate, and to repre-
sent the opinions of the majority of its members.
The interest which the Earl of Fowls had uniformly displayed In all
that concerns the University, and the acquaintance which by his
education and subsequent connexion with it he had maintained with
our academic institutions—the independence of his character and
positien—the zeal and energy which he has exhibited in forwarding
the interests of the Church, and his able and effectual support of her
claims, naturally directed the attention of many members of the Uni-
versity to this nobleman, and steps were immediately taken to obtain
his Lordship's consent to be put in nomination for the high office of
Chancellor.
The Earl of Fowls at once acceded to the request, and the favour-
able manner in which his Lordship's name has been received assures
this ccmmittee that the same considerations which led to the first in-
vitations to Lord Powis will secure the warm and hearty support of
all who feel how important it is to the University that their Chancel-
lor should possess those qualities for which the Earl of Fowls is se
eminently distinguished.
The ELECTION will take place In the Senate House, on Timm-
DAY, Feb. 25, at Ten o'clock • St.
The Committee trust that the non-resident members of the Senate
will be prepared to give their votes for Lord Fowls, in case of an
opposition.

LIIIE SPEECH OF THE SPRING;
OR, THE DAWNING AND THE WARNING.
The Spring (if we rightly remember the story)
Assembled her subjects with monarch-like glory.
At the Palace they
met, for she summons them there.
To declare she was nigh, and to bid them prepare,
She warred the sweet flowers their tributes to bring,
And hoped that the birds would get ready to sing
She spoke to the streamlets, the fields, and the tree*
And the butterfly-tribes, and the ants and the bees.
And as son as Her law had to these been laid down,
Her Majesty turn'd her attention to town.
She addressed the gay pleasure-grounds form's' for diverelons,
And bade all the steam-boats prepare for excursions.
Her speech was a long one, but lest We should fidget,
We shall not give the whole of the speech, but abridge It.
In touching on dress, she alluded to none
But the greatest of tradesmen, E. MOSES and SON.
Prepare, (said the Spring, while she pointed her finger,)
Prepare I for the Winter will soon cease to linger;
Prepare, Messrs. MOSES I Prepare your new styles
(And here the Queen gazed with her choicest of smiles.)
Many thousands (said she), as my dawning discloses,
Are preparing to visit the Dress Mart of MOSES.
Many thousands will purchase their dress-coats and frock,
And the over-coats also, from such a choice stook.
And what better dress can my subjects all wear ;
Prepare, Messrs. MOS F.S I I bid You, Prepare,

the business transacted has been without animation, and at some

mation being again afloat. North British shares are all a little
higher; Bast and West Yorkshires are also better, but do not fully

FUNERAL OF THE LATE DUKE OF NORTRUMBER-
LARD.—The remains of this lamented nobleman were re-
moved on Friday last from Alnwick Castle, and will on
Tuesday be consigned to the vault of his ancestors in West-
minster Abbey. The body was conveyed in a hearse drawn
by six horses, and attended by the household of his Grace's
establishment and a numerous body of tenantry, 300 of whom
were on foot and 600 on horseback. The magistrates and
clergy of the county of Northumberland preferred a request
to be allowed to follow the remains in a body, but the re-
quest was respectfully declined by his Grace's relatives, it
being their wish to have the attendance confined to the im-
mediate dependants on the family, the townspeople, and
the tenantry. The shops in the town of Alnwick were
closed, and the bells of the churches and of the Town-hell
tolled at intervals. Nearly the whole male population
of the town joined the procession. About a mile from
Alnwick the procession halted, and the townspeople and
members of the household filed off. Three miles fur-
ther another halt was made, and the tenantry filed
off, and thok procession, reduced to the hearse, the
private carriage of his Grace, that of the Duchess, and a
mourning ccrack with four horses, proceeded onward by
Felton and Morpeth to Newcastle, being met at every stage
of its progress by the mournful demonstrations of respect of
the inhabitants of the various places through which it passed.
At Newcastle it was met by the Mayor in his state carriage
and the authorities of the town, and by a great number of
gentlemen on horseback, upwards of thirty private carriages,
and a large body of tenantry. The concourse of spectators
was immense, the bells of the churches being tolled and
minute guns fired from the Castle. On reaching Tyne-
bridge the procession was met by the Mayor and corpora•
tion of Gateshead, the flags on the ships in the river being
hoisted half-mast high. At the railway station the hearse
with the coffin in it was at once run on to a truck and se-
cured in the usual manner. This caused some disappoint-
ment to those who expected to get a view of the coffin. The
arrangements throughout appear to have been very judicious.
The manner in which the immense crowd of people who
witnessed the possession exhibited their respect for the de-
ceased is the best testimony to his character and of their
regret for his loss. It is understood that there will be no
lying in state, but that to-clay the private friends of his Grace
will be admitted to Northumberland-house.

FURTHER DISCOVERIES IN MINERALS IN WEST
AUsTEALLk.—We have been favoured with communications
from Sir James Stirling (the first Governer of the colony),
Mr. T. H. C. Walters, and Mr. A. Shenton, announcing dis-
coveries of minerals by their respective correspondents. Sir
James Stirling's letters inform him that traces of a mine of
copper or lead, or both have been discovered on his Wood-
bridge estate, as well as indications of coal ; also, that on
Government land, about eighteen or twenty miles from Guild-
ford, a mine of tin, with a large proportion of silver, has been
discovered. This letter is from Mr. Abraham Jones, of
Woodbridge, and is dated " 15th September," from Guildford.
Mr. Shenton writee (under date " September 13th"), " We
are now in a state of great excitement respecting minerals,
good specimens of the ores of copper and tin being found ;
and great hopes are entertained of the coal mines." Mr.
Falters' letters announce the discovery of copper on the
grant of Mr. Lukin, at the Toodyay about twelve or four-
teen miles west of Mr. Davey's grant; and on Mr. Demp-
ster's, six or seven miles north of it, ore supposed to be of
tin or plating.—From the Swan River News fur February.
DETERMINED SUICIDE.--yesterday morning, as a
man was walking towards the entrance of Victoria-park, he
perceived a quantity of blood close to a gravel pit, and on
proceeding towards it discovered the body of a man in the
pit with his throat cut, and quite dead. He immediately
informed the police, who conveyed the body to the Hackney
workhouse, where it remains awaiting a coroner's inquest.
The deceased was about thirty-eight years of age, and was
respectably dressed. He must have first inflicted the wound,
and during his struggles have rolled into the pit. At present
he has not been identified.

has been received by us as to a most extensive and artfully-
concocted system of plunder, attempted to be carried on at
present by parties in London, some of whom reside west of
Tottenham. court-road, and another who advertises by cer
initials. Parties requiring loans must be on their guard.-:

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE'.-MONDAY.
During last week, up to Saturday evening, the arrivals of
English Wheat in the port of London, were unusually small;
while those of all other articles of home produce were on a
very limited scale. By laud carriage and samples, the re-
ceipts were trifling; and the same observations may be
applied to those from Ireland and Scotland. The import's of
foreign Corn, Pulse and Flour were limited. Fresh up to-
day, a moderate quantity of Wheat of home produce reached
us from Essex; but the supply from Kent, Cambridge-
shire, &c., was small. The market oper.ed by
the factors demanding an advance in the quota-
tions paid on Monday last—arising from the limited
number of samples brought forward, of from 4s to 5s per
quarter. At that improvement no sales were effected ; and
the trade became excessively heavy—so dull, indeed, that up
to twelve o'clock scarcely a single parcel had changed hands.
Under these circumstances, we have to report unusual dul-
ness in the trade, and, in some instances, a decline of quite
Is per quarter in the rates paid on this day s'ennight. At
the conclusion of business, a clearance had not been effected.
The show of Foreign was again small, yet, owing to the
millers evincing an uneasiness to purchase at present prices,
the trade was in a sluggish state, at barely last week's quotations..
Notwithstanding the quantity of Barley was limited, the
trade with that article was exceedingly dull, at an abatement
in value of from is to 2s per quarter. Superfine White
Malt moved of slowly, at full prices; but all other kinds
might have been purchased on somewhat easier terms. With
Oats we were again scantily supplied. Still, however, the
Oat trade was slow, and prices were with difficulty sup-
ported. The sale of Beans was heavy, and when transac-
tions were forced is to 2s per quarter less money was taken.
In Peas next to nothing was doing, at a reduction of Is per
quarter. The Flour trade was very dnll, both for sack and
barrelled parcels, at barely late rates. Indian Corn w.:ls dull.

At the outports the arrivals have been small, viz., only
about 260 head of Beasts and Sheep, which have been
landed in very moderate condition, chiefly from Holland.
We had on offer to-day only 70 Beasts and 90 Sheep from
abroad. The quality being tolerably good, nearly the whole
was disposed of at full prices. The number of home-led
Beasts on sale was seasonably extensive, and of full average
condition, yet the actual weight of beef was not equal to
that exhibited on Monday last. The dead markets being
heavily supplied with country-killed Meat, and the weather
by no means favourable to slaughtering, the beef trade was in
a very sluggish state, at, in most instances, a decline on last
week's quotations of 2d per 81bs., the highest figures
for the best Scots not exceeding 4s 2d per Blbs.
From Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex, and Cambridgeshire, we
received 1,400 Scots, home-breds and short-horns ;
from the northern districts, 600 short. horns ' • from the
western and midland Counties, 510 Herefords, Bunts,
Devons, &c. ; from other parts of England, 400 of various
kinds; and, from Scotland, 90 horned and polled Scots. The
numbers of Sheep were again very small, owing to which,
the salesmen demanded advanced rates for that description
of stock. In some instances, a trifle more money was paid
for the primest Old Downs; but, as this advance was by no
means general, we can make no alteration in our last weeks
rates. The trade, however, must be considered firm ; and a
good clearance was effected. There were about 300 shorn
sheep offering. With Calves, we were scantily supplied, yet
the Veal trade was heavy, at the late decline in value. Pigs
were in moderate supply, and sluggish inquiry, at unaltered
rates.

NEAVGATZ AND LEADEN HALT

Since Monday last the arrivals of slaughtered Meat from
Scotland and the north of England hate been very large,
viz., about 18,000 carcases, chiefly of Mutton and Pork.
These large supplies, together with the change in the
weather, have caused the general demand to be exceedingly
heavy; and the quotations have declined 2d. per 81bs. with-
out effecting clearances. The supply of Meat killed in the
metropolis has been but moderate. About one hundred
carcases of Foreign Beef and Mutton have appeared on sale.

EOROVUE AND SPITALFIELDS.

About 120 tons of Potatoes have arrived in the Pool from
abroad since Monday last. Coastwise the receipts have been
trifling, but by railway they have somewhat increased.
From the want of supply, and the present high prices, the
trade is very dull, as follows :—York Regents, 180 s to 220 s ;
York Reds, 200 s to 220 ; Lincoln and Cambridgeshire Re-
gents, 150 s to 190 s; ditto Kidneys, 140 s to 160 s; French
Whites, 1603 to 1805 per ton.

BOROUGH HOP MANIOC'''.
The best qualities of Hops, of last year's growth, are in
steady request at full prices. In all ( ther kinds of Ilops
next to nothing is doing. Sussex pocketa 41. to 4/ 8s ; Weald
of Kent ditto, 41 5s to 41 16s; Mid and East Kent ditto,
4115,E to 61 lOs per cwt.

WOOL.
The public sales of foreign and colonial Wools commenced
on Thursday, and will be continued during the present week
As yet, the biddings have been inactive, but no material
change can be noticed in prices. The quantity advertised is
about 12,000 bales. By private contract next to nothing is
doing, The imports in the past week have amounted to SI
bales from Antwerp, and 281 from New South Wales.
