VI-NE ARTS.—We have no doubt it will be
gratifying to those connected with the Fine Arts, to learn
atm.', the utmost attention has been given to the Manufacture of
-DRAWING PENCILS, in Cedar, by Messrs. S. MORDAN
a,,7t CO., whose excellent lead is well known in their Patent
Eves ...pointed Pencils. As they supply nothing but the
Pure ,"-lumberiand Lead, those objections, so frequently
cempLint'd of, are entirely removed. We have had the
gratification of seeing their method of manufacturing the
p(iticil, from the native lead, and can therefore vouch for its
genuineness. nil the consumer owes much to these improve-
ments in their maVifacture, as they now obtain all the
qualities of Pure Cum
erland Lead, Cedar Pencils at one uni-
torm price, anti not as foliaeriv, a different charge for each let-
tered Pencil.—S. Mordan Old Co., we understand, made these
improvements some ten years fAck, at about the time of the de-
cease of the then only surviving i'artner of the Firm of Brook-
man and Latigdon.
We were much pleased with our visit to S. M. and Co's
Manufaetory, neatness of their Machinery, the order of the
place in particular, and judging from the number of workmen
employed at making Cedar Pencils, that S. Mordan and Co.
must be taking the lead.

and talented persons, male and female, are conducting the
moral and social treatment of the patients, which is here carried
out to au extent never before attempted ; and with a success,
even beyond what was ever anticipated.
Those who have visited Denham Park have admitted that

TRUSTS.

The peculiar adaptation of a Public Company to the admi-
nistration of Trusts, and the preference it has to the agency
of individuals, is now generally acknowledged. The ample
guarantee it offers for the faithful and diligent discharge of
those duties required in carrying out, properly and effectively,
" Testamentary and all other Trusts," cheaply and securely,
hich are now too frequently long litigated, expensively exe-
cuted, or, from fraud or insolvency, not performed at all, must
recommend it as the best possible agency for such business.

DREADFUL ACCIDENT TO COLONEL CAW-
THoati.—Yesterday morning, between ten and eleven. an
accident occurred in Hyde 11:,rk (which, it is feared, will be at.
tended fatally) to Colonel Cawthorn, residing in Baker-street.
Portman-square, as hepid a friend in a gig were puoceeding
to Ascot Races. The horse became restive and unmanageable,
and set off at a fttrioui speed; Colonel Cawthorn dropped the
reins and immediately leaped out of the gig into the road, pitch-
ing on his head,by which he received a severe concussion ol
the brain. His companion, by keeping his seat, escaped with-
out injury, as the horse was sum stopped.

SERIOUS ILLNESS OF THE COMTE DE SUR-
vILLIEns, Ex-KING OF SPAIN.—The intelligence that the
sword of the Emperor Napoleon had been placed in the hands
of King Louis Philippe produced so violent a shock on the feel-
ings of the Comte:de Survilliers (Joseph Iluonaparte) as to
cause a very severe illness, from which his friends were induced
to fear the worst consequences. Sir Henry Ha!ford has been
called in. Prince Napoleon Louis is incessantly at his uncle's
bedside, and pays him the most affectionate attention. Yes-
terday the Comto de Survilliers appeared a little easier; but
not to such an extent as altogether to relieve the anxiety of
his family.
A FACT WHICH NO ONE DENIES, and one
which every person should be made acquainted with Is, that Hof.
!away has obtained, within three mgnths, cersitioates from nearly
3,2 ff! medical Merl, residing in various parts of the kingdom. All
a them tend inCtlnlestably to prove that " Holloway's Ointment,"
if used conjointly with his " External Disease Pill," is an infallible
cure for rheumatism, gout, and lumbago, and all settled aches and
pains; but it must be borne in mind, that in some cases their use
must he perileypred in for some considerable time. These ex-
ImordiriarY Medicines are sold by all respectable Chemists and
Druggists throughout the kingdom, or at the Proprietor's Esta
blishment, 244, Strand, where he has removed from 13, Broad-

THE ECCENTRIC SNUFF-
TAKER.
Should trade be dull and times go rough,
Oh, give me then a pinch of snuff;
Give me my box a pinch to take,
•
E'en when I'm pleas'd for pleasure's sake.
When fortune's frowns disturb my mind,
And friends appear to grow unkind;
Relief I seek within my box,
My system is quite orthodox.
When a true friend perchance I meet,
I cheerfully his person greet,
A hearty How do lou do ?" takes place,
When, In my snuff-box shows its face.
My pulveriforous box supplies
A recipe for weakly eyes ;
That man must be a silly goose
Who thoughtlessly condemns its use.
If my proboscis could bet speak,
'Twould often say—the dose repeat ;
Each grateful sneeze and tittilation
Excites a frequent iteration.
Then here's my glass in which I toast,
Success to that which I love most ;
Reader, I pray don't think me bluff--
Mark well the hintl—'tis ORIMSTONE'S Snuff.

This Company is formed for Paving the Metropolis, and
twenty miles round. Specimens of the principle have been
laid down at Whitehall, Buckingham Palace, and Oxford-street,
where 2,000 yards more are commenced. The principle is a
new section of the cube. The Blocks are cut across the grain,
at an angle of 63 degrees 26 mime:es 5 seconds and 8-10ths of a
second, which causes the diagon.ljoining of the obtuse anglei of
the two parallelopipedes to fall ;n a perpendicular straight line,
which, laid down obliquely, gives to a surface, perpetually even,
all the strength of an arch.
The streets of London alone comprise 6,000,000 square
yards, and are kept in repair at an annual expense of 300,0001.
The profits of the Company will be derived from the original
laying down of the Pavement, each million of square yards
yielding 150,000/. profit—and also from keeping their pave-
ment in repair, which on a moderae calculation will amount
to 60,0001. per annum—at the same time effecting a saving of
one-half of the Paving-rates to the several parishes. The pre-
sent orders received by the Company amount to 30,0001. Ne-
gotiations are pewding for other works to a great extent.
Meetings have been held at Liverpool and Manchester. at
which, after the principles of the Wood Pavement were ex-
plained, Resolutions were unanimously passed, approving of
the scientific principle adopted by the Metropolitan Patent
Wood Pavement Company, and strongly recommending its ge-
neral use.
Application has since been made to the Inventor for permis-
don to lay down a quarter of a mile in length at Manchester,
and the work will commence forthwith.
Application for Shares to be addressed to the Secretary, 20,
John-street, Adelphi, where prospectuses may be obtained.
In consequence of the great increase of business sinee this
Company has been announced to the Public, the Provisional
Committee have found it absolutely necessary to establish a
BRANCH OFFICE in the CITY, at No. 75, King William-
street, where Models may be seen, and Prospectuses obtained.

Under the Management of a Board of Directors.
This Society, in addition to the general business of Insur-

persons of very moderate means to attain those objects hitherto
confined to the more weaAliy, viz.
Ist. Insuring their lives in sums from 5/. and upwards, se-
curing Deferred Annuities as a provision for Old Age ; Weekly
Allowances during Sickness ; and Endowments for Children,
the Premiums being divided into Monthly Instalments for the
convenience of the Insured. Also for the protection of such
as possess only a small personal property, Insurances are effected
against loss by Fire, in sums from 10/. to 100/., by Quarterly
payments ; thus Household Goods, Wearing Apparel, Stock
in Trade, Workmen's Tools, &c., to the value of 00/. can be
Insured, on payment of Sixpence every Three Months, duty
included.

very novel feature, for the man to whom this fact is known, will
hencerorth deserve little sympathy should he become the victim
of a calamity, against the evils of which he could se readily
have guarded.

PATONi PRNMANSHTF.

The LORD MAYou stated that he had received a moat
splendid specimen of ornamental penmanship, from Mr.
Walter Paton, who had been for several years employed
by the Corporation as pemnan. And that Mr. Paton rc-
quc►ted the Corporations' acceptance of it as a small and
inadequate proof of his gratitude.
The specimen attracted the treat-est admiration, and
was most warmly accepted by the Court. Mr. Paton has,
since the death of the celebrated penman, Tornkins, exe-
cuted the most important writings for the City of London,
the Royal Academy and other public bcd:cs.

TILE UNNECESSARY SUIUNIER EXCURSIONS OF TILE coßro-
London, England, 1840-02-29

RATION

Mr. NVELis moved " that this Court (anx7ous to comply
with the avowed wishes of their constituents in reducing
the expenditure of the City cash by all practical m.:-at.s)
do now totally repeal tie standing order of tic kith
of June. 1837, authoriz:ng the expenditure of the sum of
7601. fur the expense; of unnecessary summer excursions."
• He declared that if the Court decided against his motion,
he should move, poor a man es he was, for an injunction
to the Court of Cnancery to prevent them from appropria-
ting the money to the grvification of their appetite.—
( Laughter, and cries of •' Hear, hear.)
Aldermen COPELAND seconded the motion, which was
supported by several members.
Mr. LAWRENCE oppus,ed the motion upon the ground
that if the Committee were not recompensed in some way
or other they would not assemble to du the duties of the
Corporation, end that all the duties, and consequently all
the influence would devolve upon the officers.
The motion of Mr. WELLs was carried by a majority of
17 ; the numbers for it being 40, and against it 23.
The LORD MAYOR, with great kindness of heart, in-
formed the Court (no doubt with a view to mitigate the
pang of yielding up the Summer Excursions) that as
Prince All:ert would be of age in August, in the very prime
season of turtle and venison, his Royal Highness should be
invited to the City to receive the freedom in that month,
and to have the Chief Magistrate, with his Company, to
dinner, and that all the members of the Corporation should
receive invitations upon the occasion.—(Loud cheering.)

Arrival; this Morning—French mail; no ship letters.

Owing to the great quantity of ice in the Elbe, the na-

sailing, but near Stade there was but little floating ice, and
the passage between Hamburg and Harbourg remained

LAW INTELLIGENCE.

COURT OF QUEEN'S BENCH, FEB. 28.
(Sittings at Nisi Prius in the Guildhall, before Lord
DENMAN and a Special Jury.)
COLLARD V. ALLISON.

This was an action 'lrought by Mr. Collard, the cele-
brated pianoforte maker, against the defendant, who was
in the same business, for an infringement of his patent
tights in constructing square piano-fortes, with dampers,
resembling Stuart's patent dampers, the property in which
vested in the plaintiff. The case was net concluded up to
the hour of our going to press, and there appeared every
probability of its lasting the whole day. The floor of the
Court was covered with models of piano-forte hammers and
dampers, and the Court was crowded with musical instru-
ment makers, among whom the case seemed to excite
especial interest.
The ATTORAEY- GENERAL, Mr. TnEstmart, and Mr.
KELLY conducted the prosecution ; and Sir W. FOLLETT
and Mr. RICHARDS appeared for the defence.

Yesterday Thomas Dunn Webb, late a clerk in the
Bimingham post-office, was brought before Mr. JARIANE,
charged with stealing a letter, which came into his posses-
sion in the discharge of his duties, containing a bill for
201., the property of Messrs. Nathaniel Grace and Co.,
paper manufacturers, Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The priso-
ner, it will be remembered, had been examined already on
charges of a similar nature, which were brought against
him by the Post-office authorities, upon each of which he
stands committed for trial.

Evidence on this charge was heard at considerable
length, when the prisoner was ordered to be committed to
Warwick gaol. Th offence was committed in the county
of Warwick, and he will be tried at the present Assizes.

and unconverted coupons, a principle which we declare
to be most iniquitous. The Treasury Bonds, like the
soldiers' certificates, were advertised to be paid off on a
given day ; and the utmost the endorsees of the latter
can expect is, we should say, to be reimbursed the
money they are actually out of pocket when some at-
tention shall have been paid to those obligations. We
like to see fair play, and are rejoiced that the represen-
tations of Mr. Cochrane and others in behalf of the
Legion have had the influence which they seem to have
had in the right quarter to obtain it.

SUN.—We have not had quite so buoyant a market
for the British securities to-da), owing to the turn the
Account appears to have takenlagainst the speculators for
an advance, who have bought, it would seem, rather too
largely, and are now paying a higher rate of continua-
tion, or are selling out to complete their engagements.
Most of the Foreign Stocks, as has been the case for
some time past, followed the movement of the English
securities, being all a shade lower. Spanish Active
Bonds opened at 25Z-, and closed at 25k, while the De-
ferred wore not higher than 124 to -a ; Portuguese New
Five per Cents. were worth 354, and the Three per
Cents, were heavy at 23 to 223. Brazil Bonds were
dull at 80 ; and Cellmbian of 1824, at 23/ for money,
and 25 for time. Chilien fell to 43k, and rallied to 45 ;
and Mexican Consolidated Bonds ranged from 303 to
304. Dutch Two-and-a-Half per Cents., in conse-
quence of the buoyancy of the Amsterdam Bourse on
Monday afternoon, touched 52- this morning, but this
price tempted a sale or two, and they did not leave
off higher than 52.
There was not so good a market for the Railway
Shares, and the business done was comparatively limited.
Great Western Shares brought 28 to 26k, New 10/,
Hull and Selby 31, London and Birmingham 81, Man-
, chester and Leeds 30 premium. South Western fell
to 171 prem. Midland Counties were at 18, Brighton
at 9-1, and Blackwall at 3 to 1 discount.
