DE FEN CE OF MIEROSLAWSKI,
THE LEADER OF THE POLISH INSURGENTS
IN POSEN.
The following is a translation of some of the most
remarkable passages in this speech, which is said to
have produced so sensible an effect upon the judges of
the accused, that the President decided upon adjourn-
ing the court until the ensuing day. Sentence of
death was then passed upon Mieroslaw-ski:—
" Oh, gentlemen, if it is conspiracy to denounce,
as well publicly as privately, violence, spoliation,
calumny, the pitiless persecution of the weak by the
strong—if it is worthy of death or captivity to defend
one's life and to labour for freedom—then it is not we
alone, it is all Poland that is guilty of conspiracy.
Bring, therefore, all Poland to this bar; bring hither
all our saints and all our heroes ; bring all who groans
all who curse the day of their birth, in that vest
land of slavery which is called Poland; enlarge
the bounds of this hall to the four corners of the
world, for e‘ery where the bones of Pules who have
died for the redemption of their country call aloud
for vengeance. Your quest has plunged its net for
moment into the immense, inexhaustible, and un-
fathomable stream of our agitation, to draw from it At
hazard 2GO grains of sand. But can you believe,
gentlemen, that you have thus secured the secret
radical cause of evil which troubles the waves, and
keeps them tinged with blood. Be not surprised,
gentlemen, if we repeat incessantly, if we repeat
until our voices are silenced for ever, that we are
punished not on account of our resistance, but on
account of the flagrant, the irreparable injury which
our country sustained almost a century ago. We
repeat it, because you are desirous of forgetting it;
because you willinv,ly avert your eyes, in order
not to perceive that each convulsion that agitates
Poland is but the necessary and involuntary
re action attending the crimes committed against
,
her by the powers who affect astonishment ab
her struggles. The most timid, the most inoffensive
being, if you seek to trample it under foot, will
turn upon you, will use its last remaining strengh to
make you release it, by wounding that which crushes
it : and do you believe that an entire nation, that
giant buried alive in too narrow a tomb, will not seek
to shake off the insufferable weight which crushes his
breast ? Do the Titans sleep tranquilly under the
mountain with which the jealousy of Jupiter bas
overwhelmed their despair ? Is it a crime in those
wretched outcasts, if the death-rattle of their eternal
agony, piercing the crater of their sepulchre, some-
times troubles the banquet of the autocrat of the
heavens ?"

IMPORTANT CAUTION.

Tr having come to the knowledge of the Proprietor
that unprincipled persons, tempted by the extraordinary- suc-
cess of Dr. LOCOCK'S PULMONIC WAFERS, prepare spurious
imitations of that remedy, the public is cautioned not to purchase any
Wafers unless the words " Dr. LOCOCK'S WAFERS " appear in
white letters on a red ground, in the Government stamp outside
each box.
Dr. LOCOCK'S WAFERS give instant relief, and a raid cure of
Asthma, Coughs, and all disorders of the Breath and Lungs.
To SINGERS and PUBLIC SPEAKERS they are invaluable for
clearing and strengthening the voice ; they have a pleasant taste.

MARKET NEWS.-(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
Notwithstanding the arrivals of English Wheat for our
market, since Monday, have been on a very moderate
scale, and the show of samples, this morning, was by no
means good, the demand for that article, arising, chiefly,
from the large influx of Wheat from abroad, was in a
sluggish state, at barely stationary prices. The sale for
all kinds of Foreign Wheat was very inactive. In the
currencies, however, no material alteration took place.
The supply of Barley was small ; yet sales progressed
slowly, at barely late rates. Superfine Malt supported
late rates ; but the inferior kinds had a downward
tendency. In Oats, Beans, Peas, Indian Corn, and all
other articles, very little business was transacted.

RIVER PLATE.

The following are extracts from letters received per
Creole, from Monte Video:—

" MONTE VIDEO, OCT. I.—During the past month
the receipts of this Custom-house have produced 361,870
dolls., and the committee has decreed a dividend of ten
per cent. to the shareholders for the month of September,
thus making a total of eighty per cent. paid off on the
original amount subscribed of each share.
" OCT. 7.—On the night of the 4th, Don Lorenzo
Battlle, Minister of War, left this in the armed national
schooner Maipeo, with 160 soldiers, for Maldonado, to
seize General Ribera, whom the Government suspected
of being in correspondence with Oribe. This morning
the Minister returned, having executed his mission, by
apprehending and banishing to St. Catherine's, in the
Brazils, Ribera, to whom they have assigned 600 dolls.
monthly, paying him in advance three months. The affair
has been managed very quietly throughout.
" During the month of September there have been
imported into Monte Video from Buenos Ayres 270,383
dry hides, 43,211 salted, 25,000 gds. tallow, and 8,250
Vs. wool.
" The exports from Monte Video have been as fol-
lows:-119,154 dry hides, 33,369 salted, 7,329 gds.
tallow, 5,000 Os. wool; of which have been sent to
England 512 dry hides, 20,761 salted, 7,129 gds. tallow,
4,560 gds. wool. From this abstract you will perceive
that 17,000 gds. tallow have still to be appropriated, and
this quantity is already afloat on board of the several
vessels loading for England.
" OCT. 9.—This morning the arrival of several of the
river craft has brought us dates from Buenos Ayres to
Oct. 6th. Doubloons were quoted at 398 dolls. Our
advises contain news of the safe arrival of the English,
Spanish, and Brazilian vessels at Buenos Ayres, of the
sailing of which, without paying duties at Monte Video,
we previously informed you. Several other Brazilian
vessels acting in a similar manner, have also arrived
safely."

ELECTION TO THE BENCH OF THE MIDDLE
TEMPLE.—The following new regulation has been
adopted by the Society of the Inner Temple:—" Re-
solved unanimously, that no person shall be elected to
the bench of this society unless he obtain the votes of
the majority of the existing benchers, and that four
black balls shall be sufficient to exclude. Hilary
Term, 1847."

MANSION HOUSE.—A gentleman of the firm of
Aldridge and Co., of good-lane, waited upon the Lord
Mayor with the sum of 41., being the amount of the
surplus of fines from the gentlemen of the inquest of
the Ward of Langbourn, and requested that it should
be appropriated to the poor.

THE UNITED STATES.

By a French steamer, arrived at Havre, we have New
York papers to the 25th ttlt. inclusive. Dispatches
from General Scott had been received at Washington,
but they contained nothing either new or of importance.
Everything remained as at the date of previous ad-
vices. Santa Anna was said to be universally repro-
bated. Paredes had again appeared upon the field,
and in a manifesto to the nation refers all the mis-
fortunes of Mexico to the unfortunate internal differ-
ences so long prevailing, and calls upon the people to
unite with him in driving back the enemy, who has
penetrated to the heart of the country, that so the anni-
hilation of Mexico may be prevented. There was a
rumour that Santa Anna was about to embark in an
English steamer at Tampico, having bid his country an
eternal farewell.

The domestic news from the United States refers
principally to the policy of the approaching Congress,
and matters connected with the next Presidential elec-

tion. Mr. Clay is willing to abandon the conquests
made in Mexico, and to withdraw within the Rio
Grande, retaining only the bay of San Francisco ; but
it is said Mr. Adams goes for the whole of Mexico or
none.

Accounts by the Acadia, from Liverpool, reached
New York on the 21st ult.

umphed. The national party will not have a deputy in

UNITED KINGDOM LIFE ASSURANCE
COMPANY,
No. 8, WATERLOO-PLACE, PALL-MALL, LONDON.
The attention of Holders of Policies in the Equitable Assurance
Company of London, is particularly called to the Half-Credit Evales
of Premium of this Company, by which table the bonus to be de-
clared at the next investigation of the Equitable Assurance Comp any 's
affairs, in January, 1850, may be secured at a present annual payment
of one half the rates generally charged by other companies. In the
"rent of death the sum insured will bo paid, after deduction of the
ether half of the rates. Should the life insured survive the decla-
tation of the bonus, the policy may be allowed to lapse, and the
Company will renounce all claim for the half premiums which may
be due thereon ; or. in the event of the party being at that time

TO THE LADIES,

This lady had the following letter inserted in the "Times" news-
paper on Aug. 7, 1846. Reader, remember, this letter was put into
the paper by the lady herself, as a testimony to me.
" Mrs. Weekley, of No. 3. Swan-street, Borough, takes this oppor-
tunity of publicly thanking Mr. W. Grimstone, of the Herbary, High-
gate, for the efficacy of his Aromatic Regenerator, in having com-
pletely restored the hair on her head, after using it about four months,
nd the whole of her hair is much stronger and mere luxuriant than

ever was before the baldness appeared.
" Mrs. Weekley inserts this testimony to the virtues of Mr. G.'s
Regenator, feeling assured that many ladies would gladly purchase
an l is. bottle if they were as certain of its virtues as she is, from ex-
perience, not only in the restoration and production of hair in abund-
ance, but as a cure of nervous headache ; as a toilet perfume it is far
beyond any to her taste. She will feel a pleasure in answering any
lady of respectability to the above facts.-3, Swan-street, Borough."
In cases of the hair becoming thin, weak, or turning grey, a few
drops on the crown of the head occasionally, every week, will pre-
vent the hair from coming away with the comb, make it strong, and
lrevent it turning grey, rendering the hair luxuriant and curly. A
few drops on your hairbrush before brushing the hair, will give the
hair brilliancy, causing it to curl.
The most delicate ladies may use this delightful product e the
most aromatic herbs and flowers with confidence ; its refreshing
.xlour removes headache and makes it a most necessary companion
to the toilet. In cases of nevous headache, pour ten or twelve drops
on the grown of the head ; if very bad, repeat it every quarter of an
hour. In most cases relief is certain in ten minutes. It produces
hair oil ehildren's heads in a few appplications. If used on infants'
heads, it has such a peculiar cooling influence ou the brain as to pre-
vent convulsions, as well as promoting the growth of hair.—See
pamphlet of testimonials.

THE PATRICIAN.

In the present number of the Patrician we have
the commencement of a series of articles on " the
deaths of the Sovereigns of England," and the deaths
and burial places of the English monarchs, from
William the Conquerer to Henry 111. are described.
It is not often that we find a political article in the
Patrician, in the present number, however, there is
a short but ably written paper on the " Constitutional
value of the British Aristocracy," in which the aris-
tocracy of Britain is compared with the asistocracies
of the various continental nations, and with the aristo-
cracy of the United States ; for, notwithstanding all
Brother Jonathan's democratic boastings, he has an
aristocracy, and one, that of all aristocracies, is the
least entitled to respect—the aristocracy of the money
bags. A resume of the " Trial of Capt. Donellan for
the murder of Sir Theodosius Boughton is "the curious
trial" given this month, and it would certainly have
been better that the trial should have been given at
greater length. Not one word appears about Donel-
lan's experiments in distilling laurel water (the basis
of which is prussic acid), and which is the poison
supposed to have been used on this occasion ; and
many points alluded to in the summing up of the
judge, which is given pretty fully, are not given at all
in the evidence. The idea of giving a series of
" curious trials connected with the aristocracy " is
excellent, but the evidence should in all cases be
given at length, so that the reader may be enabled to
review the decision of the jury. From the.„'!;Frag-
ments of Family History" we extract the *Mowing
account of the Fulteney Guinea :

" Pulteney, the great leader of the Opposition, after-
wards Earl of Bath, having, in one of his speeches,
made a Latin quotation, was corrected by Sir Robert
Walpole, who offered to wager a guinea on the inaccu-
racy of the lines. The bet was accepted, the classic
referred to, and Pulteney being found to be right, the
Minister threw the guinea across the table, which Pul-
teney, as he took it up, called the House to witness, was
the first guinea of the public money he had ever put
into his pocket. The very coin thus lost and won is
still preserved, as the Pulteney guinea,' in the British
Museum."

BOW-STREET-(THIS DAY).

David Belasco (nephew to the prize fighter of that
name) was placed at the bar before Mr. Henry, charged
with creating a disturbance at the Lyceum Theatre, and
assaulting Carter, the constable of the theatre.
The complainant stated that at about ten o'clock last
night he was sent for to the pit, where he found the pri-
soner standing on a bench, and obstructing the view of
Several persons who were behind him. Being pulled
down by some one who was standing near him, he got
up again. Witness pulled him off, and he got up again
a second and a third time. When witness was pulling
him down for the third time he struck him a very vio-
lent blow on the eye, which caused him (witness) to
stagger back against the partition at the back of the
pit. Witness, with the assistance of two policemen, took
him into custody. The prisoner was sober.
Mr. Henry Keeley (brother to the lessee), said that
he was at the back of the pit, and saw the whole trans-
action. He saw the prisoner pulled down three times ;
he saw him give the blow, and when he was taken into
custody, followed witness to the station.
The prisoner admitted that he was pulled down, but
denied that he had struck the complainant. He might
have pushed him.
Mr. HENRY fined him 51., or in default sentenced him
to imprisonment for one month. The fine was paid.
