SPRlNG.—Registered 6 and 7 Viet., cap. tIS.—PATRONISED by
H.R.H. PREN!•E ALBERT, the ROYAL FAMILY, his Grace the
COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF, the PRINCIPAL NO:IILITY, and
OFFICERS of the GUARDS.
This gentlemanly garment, cut without seams on the shoulder,
so as to improve the figure, and which (owing to Ls elasticity) fits
equally well either as an over-coat or LIGHT SUMMER FROCK,
is made of a peculiar cloth, manufactured in the west of England,
expressly for this coat, of dotae twist warp and weft, and finest
Saxony wool. It is guaranteed to endure and maintain its primitive
appearance at least twice, the time of ordinary cloth, however good
the quality, as It does not wear white or rough, and although re-
pellent, is perfectly porous. The sleeves are lined with a: ich dura-
ble silk, so that the coat slips on and off easily, and, owing to its
softness, lightne,s, and elasticity, the wearer experiences perfect
ease and freedom when the coat is buttoned.
The WELLINGTON URTOUT commends itself fo all who desire
a quiet, elegant, gentlemanly appearance ; tt is kept in every size and
leading colour, ready for immediate wear, price Two Guineas and a
Half, net cash on del:very. Every genuine coat has a stamp bearing
the royal arms, with a number indicative of the size, awl name and
address of the patentee, JAMES FOL'GERE, 6, CONDUIT-
STREET, REGENT-,TRE ET, and 11, POULTRY, near the MAN-
SION-HOUSE, LONDON.

THE POOR OF BRISTOL.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved, on behalf of the
Poor-law Commissioners, for a rule, directed to the
guardians of the poor of the city of Bristol, calling upon
them to show cause why a mandamus should not be
issued commanding them to furnish Mr. Alfred Whit-
taker, an auditor appointed by the Poor-law Commis-
sioners for the Sornersetshire and Wiltshire districts,
with an account in writing of all " money matters and
things " expended by them for the maintenance of the
poor for the half-year ending the 25th of March, 1846.
The parishes of which the defendants were the guar-
dians, overseers, &e., were incorporated by an Act of
Parliament entitled the 3sl of George IV., c. 44, and
they were invested with authority over the poor, and
empowered to collect rates for their support. Last year
the Poor-law Commissioners issued an order to them,
amongst others, for the appointment of an auditor to
the district. Mr. Whittaker was elected in the month
of October, the guardians and deputy guardians voting
for him. In September he gave them notice that he should
shortly attend for the purpose of auditing the accounts,
but he was met by a resolution which the directors had
passed, setting forth that the greatest pains had been '
taken by them to have the accounts properly audited,
and that the intervention of the auditor would be wholly
unnecessary. They also objected to increasing the rates
by a salary to an auditor ; and finally came to the de-
termination not to submit their accounts to Mr. Whit-
taker until their liability to do so was declared by a
competent tribunal. They grounded their non-liability
on the 7 and 8 Victoria, sec. 32, c. 101, which autho-
rised the Poor-law Commissioners to combine parishes
or unions together, and to form them into districts for
the auditing of their accounts by the proper officer.
They contended that their district was not a parish or
union within the meaning of that Act. Now he (the
Attorney-General) held that the interpretation clause
appended to the Act put an end to this objection, inas-
much as it stated that parishes or unions should be held
to mean parishes or unions specified as such under any
local Act.—Rule granted.

HERIPATIPS RAILWAY JOURNAL, Nov. 21, 1846.

The " Post-office Directory" for 1847 appears with additions and
improvements upon its valuable predecessor, but with no enlarge-
ment in the price. The continued enterprising spirit withl• hich this
important, and it is not a misapplication of terms to say, national
work is conducted, merits the highest commendation, We know not
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
hands of the present proprietary, and to place it by the force of might
over right in the hands of Government ; but, should it be attempted,
surely the following statement of its cmductors will go home to the
consciences, if they have any, of the parties seeking to draw down
the grasping interference of Government :—" It can only be neces-
sary to refer to a copy of the work published 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 character. That the improvements
(the result of many years of unwearied toil and application on the
part of those engaged in the compilation of the work) are duly appre-
ciated is now happily beyond all question ; prior to the Directory'
passing to its present proprietor, rival books contended successfully
with this—they have disappeared."

AMERICAN PROJECT FOR IRISH

EMIGRATION.

The Belfast Vindicator contains the following :
" We are enabled to state, on the authority of private
letters from respectable parties in New York, that a
plan for enabling the destitute Irish to emigrate, on an
extensive scale, from their present wretched, habitations
to the delightful valley of the Miss,ssipi, is in contem-
plation in that city. The outlines of the project are
these :—A large monied company is to be formed in
New York. By this company, ten good ships at the
least, will be provided to bring out Irish families, for the
P •
u-pose cf forming a colony in the valley of the Missis-
sipi. The company will have its own responsible agents
both in It eland and America ; it will supply to each
family so brought out one hundred acres of land, imple-
ments of tillage, and everything necessary for their new
condition during the first twelve months. The remune-
ration from the colony to the company would be by
yearly instalments, extending over seri ral years, in order
to make the repayment of the expenses incurred easy to
1.,.?;rt0 a
the settlers. It is believed that by this means of transit
theyesahr.or”es of Ire-

" Cervantes laughed Spain's chivalry away."
So says Byron ; and if the English were not made of
sterner stuff, what might not the absurdities of Punch,
and such like ridiculous publications, produce on the
British Lion. We must beg pardon, however, of the
Spanish ghost for coupling its name with such abortions.
How different the mission of the Messm Ross and Sons,
of Bishopsgate•street, whose productions and art give
additional dignity and grace to the
"Human Nee Divine."
We hear with much regret that Mrs. Marshall, the
venerable widow of the late John Marshall, Esq., is
extremely ill at her seat, Hallsteads, Cumberlaud.—Leeds

BRITANNIA, Nov. 21,1846.

•
The French people have done themselves credit by their industrial
expositions. But it must be acknowledged that, though ingenious
and pretty, they appear quite insignificar,t compared with the indus-
trial exposition presented to the mind by this mighty volume. Keep.
ing pace with the advancing trade and population of London, it still
increases in be lk ; and, keeping pace with the movement of society
in a more impc rtant particular, it vigilantly seizes every opportunity
of improvement to insure more perfect accuracy and more complete
classification. We find in this volume many instances of superiority
to former issues, which, though comparatively trifling, show the in-
telligence and care exercised over every department. It may be men-
Atoned that by the employment of private agents, the changes of re-
sidence are now brought down to a later period thin formerly, and
the value of the " Directory" is consequently enhanced. We have
before spoken of it as indispensable to the proper management of
business. Its authority is now so universally established, both at the
Post-office and throughout the metropolis, that any further recom-
mendation of it is superfluous.

MESSRS. DANIEL SMITH and SON will
SELL by AUCTION, at the Mart, en FRIDAY, Octbber 22,
at Twelve, in One Lot,

The above very desirable and capital ESTATE, comprising one of
the most complete and valuable Farms in that fertile district, con-
sisting of above 360 acres in a perfect ring fence, of which about 190
acres are superior arable land, subdivided by strong straight quickset
hedges, into 11 handsome fields of about 10 to 25 acres ea h, the
greater part gently sloping to the south, and commanding important
frontages upon both sides of the turnpike-road, with about 170 acres
of excellent sound marsh land, ranging along the whole south side of
the property, rendering it a peculiarly productive farm, and fine pro-
perty for occupation or investment, from its capability of carrying a
considerab.e grazing stock and a large flock of sheep, and not being
wholly dependent on corn. The Residence is modern and cheerfully
placed upon the rising grounds near the church, with well-planted
lawn, stabling, &c., commanding Portsmouth, Langston Harbour,
the Isle of Wight, with Osborne, Spithead, and a grand expanse of
marine and inland wooded scenery, with Chichester Cathedral. It
is on a moderate scale, but so substantially built and planned as to
be very easily enlarged. There is a small farm-house, garden, yards,
and all requisite agricultural buildings, labourers' cotteges, &c. The
farm is in very high condition, having been in the hands of the pro-
prietor for many years, and arrangements may he made to meet
the wish of the purchaser as to immediate possession, or a year or
two he, ,ce.

Th. estate may be viewed by application on the premises ; and par-
t:mil:us, with lithographic plans, had at the chief hotels at Ports-

A UNIVERSAL COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION.

Let everybody pay down 11., for which a certificate
shall be given, which certificate may be used as se-
curity, or perhaps even as a medium of circulation, by
which the capital would be doubled. Let these cer-
tificates bear five per cent. interest (or in coupons of
6d. for six months); the capital thus brought toge-
ther to assist its members only, and not to interfere
with any existing establishment, the capital to be used
in discounting boncifide trade bills, and making loans
on good, safe, and available securities, dock-warrants,
staple commodities, &c. Such an association can be
formed and be in work in a few days, after this sug-
gestion finds favour with the public. One pound paid
down, with no calls and no liabilities, may bring a
capital together large enough to assist, to:some extent,
the bona fide trade and commerce, and with a prudent
management, may, in a little while, increase and work
beneficially for even the higher mercantile under-
takings.
I have been desired to give this proposal some pub-
licity. Your readers may consider the propriety of
such an association, and whether they will, more or
less, participate in its foundation, and assist either
with one pound or one hundred pounds, as they may
feel inclined. Whether this proposal be adopted or
rejected, or whether it may lead to some other pro-
posal better adapted to the present wants of the
great commercial body of this country, who labour
under daily difficulties, which, I believe, can soon he
remedied by such a union of strength through small
means, as an association of this kind would effect,
I throw out this suggestion in the hope that it may
call attention to some mode of relieving the present
severe pressure, and enabling tradesmen and others to
get their regular business transacted.
I am, Sir, your humble obedient servant,

CLERKENWELL.

Yesterday Emma Mathews, aged nineteen, was
placed at the bar for final examination, charged by
Mr. John Bonner, builder, of No, 15, Pear Tree
court, Clerkenwell, with stealing 81. and upwards, a
bill of exchange for 3001., and other property.
The prisoner said nothing in her defence to this
charge, and was fully committed for trial.
The prisoner was next charged by Mrs. Jane An-
sell, of No. 19, Bennett-street, Clerkenwell, with
stealing six gowns and other property.:
She had been in the service of the prosecutrix but
a short period of time, during which the property
was missed. On the Sunday of the robbery at Mr.
Bonner's, she asked for leave of absence, which was
granted, and she must have proceeded immediately to
the house of Mr. Bonner, to commit the robbery. The
stolen articles were traced to have been pledged by the
prisoner.

Police .constable 208 G, who apprehended the pri-
soner, gave confirmatory testimony. He searched her,
and found several bunches of keys with which she
was in the habit of opening doors, &c., for the purpose
of plunder, and there was no doubt she was connected
with a gang of thieves.
Mr. John Theobald, with whom the prisoner had
lived as servant, said he discharged the prisoner for
robbery, and since she had left, his house had been
attempted to be entered and robbed several times.
Mr. TYRWUITT inquired whether they received a
reference with the prisoner ?-INIr Bonner replied that

FUNERAL of MARSHAL OUDINOT,

DUKE DE REGGIO.
The funeral of the late Marshal Duke de'Reggio,
Governor of the Invalides, took place on Tuesday,
with all the pomp due to his rank. The service was
performed in the Church of the Invalides, which was
hung with black, relieved with escutcheons, on which
were inscribed the names of the great battles in which
the deceased had distinguished himself. Among them
were marked Friedland, Zurich, Ebersberg, Genoa,
Wagram, the Mincio, Polot.sk, Amstctten, the Bere-
sine, Vienna, Bautzen, Hollabrun, Arcis-sur-Aube,
Neufchatel, Madrid, and Ostrolenka. At twelve
o'clock the clergy of the Invalides brought the body
in solemn procession from the chapelle ardente on the
left side of the entrance, where it was placed in the
morning, to a splendid catafalque in the middle of the
nave. The corners of the pall were borne by the Duke
Decazes, Marshal Molitor, the Duke de Mortemart,
and the Marquis de Lauriston. The guard of honour
was composed of the oldest non-commissioned officers
of the regiments on duty. The grand deputa-
tion from the Chamber of Peers was composed of
thirty-two members, among whom were the
Duke de Plaisance, Baron Athalin, the Prince
de Wagram, Viscount Sebastiani, Admiral Ito-
samel, Count Schramm, the Duke dAlbufera,
the Duke d'Estissac, the Prince de la Moskowa, Mar-
quis Gouvion Saint-Cyr, General Baron Gourgard,
the Duke de Trevise, Generals Moline de Saint-Yon
and Jacqueminot. On the left of the choir, were the
Aides-de-camp and orderly officers of the King and
Princes, who came in six of the royal carriages. In
the nave on the right, were the Ministers of War' the
Marine, Finance, Commerce, and Public Works ; be-
hind them, the grand deputation from the Chamber of
andmy of the deceased,
f manyai l other
members,
thaend
Council of
PeersState;the
Guards. With the Peers were several of the Foreign
Ambassadors and ministers. Mini t On s the left, in the nave,
were a great number of Deputies, a great many Offi-
cers of the Staff of the National Guards and of the
garrison of Paris, in full • uniform. Among the spec-
tators was Bou Maza, in his splendid national military
costume. During the service detachments from all
the regiments in Paris, infantry, cavalry, and artil-
lery, were drawn up on the Esplanade, the guns of the
Invalides firing minute salutes. The service done, the
body was brought out and placed on a hearse, and
carried in procession round the Hospital, and then
deposited in the vault of the Governors. The solem-
nity lasted two hours.

Dispatches were sent off yesterday evening from
Colonial-of&os, for the Governor of Ceylon.
