MR. COOPER'S PATHFINDER,"
A ROMANCE.
" A beautiful and interesting story, bearing on it that stamp
of reality which genius only can impress."—Courier.
" We arc glad to welcome Mr. Cooper back again to those
regions of fiction in which no living writer can contest his
empire. His ' Pathfinder' is a work of such high merit that
it will not do discredit to our best eulogy."—Atlas.
" For transporting the reader, by a few magic words, from
the heart of civilised life, and making him forget it all in the
intense interest which he excites towards a life that is its very
antipodes, there is no writer like Griper, and none of his
works are more rich in this paver than his new romance ' The
Pathfinder."--Naval and Military Gazette.

DESTRUCTION OF THE CORK THEATRE.--
A private letter, received this morning, states that the Theatre
Royal of Cork was burned to the ground, at half-past three
o'clock on Sunday morning. The writer says that the house
is a complete skeleton, and that, at half-past two o'clock p. 31.,
the wel timbers were blazing. Four engines were quickly on
the spot, and, by wonderful exertion, aided by a plentiful sup-
ply of water, prevented the fire communicating to the adjoin-
ing houses. The loss of property is very great.- Mr. and Mrs.
Wood had their farewell benefit the Saturday night previous.
Lord Ileadly died at his estate in Kerry last
week; he is succeeded in his title and estate by his nephew,
Mr. Wino.

GISTRATES.

Yesterday there was an exceedingly full attendance of
County Magistrates at the Sessions-house, Clerkcnweil
green. Mr. Sergeant ADAMS was in the Chair.
Mr. Edwards, the Deputy Clerk of the Peace, re2d
the favourable Report of the Visiting Justices of the
County Lunatic Asylum.
From the Report of the Visiting Justices of the
House of Correction it appeared that the present. num-
ber of prisoners is 1,102. namely,—males, 820 ; fe-
males, 282 ; besides 14 children.
The Report on Coroner's accounts and illegal inquests
concluded by stating, that having received Mr. Wakley's
admission that twenty of the inquests charged for is his
accounts from the 9th December, 1839, to the 31tit of
January, 1840, amounting to 401. 9s. 7d. were held by
his Clcrf;, Mr. Bell, your Committee recommend the
Court to disallow the same. After some discussion the
disallowance was ordered as recommended by the Coal.-
mittce.

SALARY OF THE CHAIRMAN.
Mr. Tull( announced that he had no written ttprt,
but'had mercy a verbal communication. • Thu deputa-
tion appointed by this Court had waited upon the Mar-
quis of Normanhy, and his Lords Lip had promised t:,
eatmnurAzate with the GovernMent on the subject and
send an answer. No answer, however, had been re-
ceived.

The Rev. J. 'Williams was decl.:red elected to he
Assistant Chaplain to the House of Correction.

There is no pain whatever on first receiving a
gun-shot wound. The blow is scarcely felt, or if it is, it
seems like that proceeding from a stone flung with a degree Of
violence ; and it is not until the blood has ccased to flow, and
a partial inflammation sets in that the individual begins to sneer.

We understand that the following instructions
relative to the Stamps, will be printed at the ends
of each cover :
London, England, 1840-04-24

POSTAGE.

i CQ}y OF TREASURY MINUTE DATED
1 APRIL 22, 1840.
My Lords refer to their Minutes of the 26th
Dec., 20th of Feb., and 2d inst., regarding the pre-
,
i paration and sale of Postage stamps.
IMy Lords read a letter from the Commissioners
1 of Stamps and Taxes, naming the day on which
they will be ready to issue stamped covers, enve-
lopes, and labels in London, and that on which the
1
'
1 application of such stamps to letters may, in their
1
opinion commence ; but adding that they are unable
at present to state when the preparations will be
ready for stamping the paper which the public may
Isend in for that purpose.
Having communicated on the subject with the
authorities of the Post-office, my Lords are pleased
to direct as follows :
That the issue of postage stamps for sale to the_ pub-
lie be commenced as early as practicable ; that such
issue be, in the first instance, confined to London ; and
that it be extended first to Dublin and Edinburgh,
ft 'and afterwards to other parts of the kingdom in
$ such order as the Commissioners of Stamps and
Taxes may determine, and as rapidly as the neces-
sary sup-1-
p y can be obtained. Also, that the Com-
missioners of Stamps and Taxes be instructed to
give due notice to the public as soon as they are
ready to stamp the paper which may be sent in for
that purpose.
That on and after the 6th of May next, letters
written on stamped paper, or enclosed in stamped
Covers, or having a stamp or stamps affixed thereto
(the stamp or stamps in every such case being of
the same value or amount as the rates of postage
now charged on such letters if pre-paid), shall, if
within the limitation of weight fixed under the
Provisions of the 2d and 3d Victoria, c.. 52, and
if the stamp or stamps have not been used before,
Pass by the post free of postage in whatever part of
toe kingdom they may be posted.
That as many parts of the kingdom cannot be
supplied with postage stamps by the said 6th of
• May, pre-payment by money as well as by stamps
be continued until further directions are issued.
That unstamped letter's (unless pre-paid by money
as at present), be charged double postage on
delivery.
That letters insufficiently stamped or insufficiently-
'cite-paid, be charged on delivery double the amount
of such insufficiency.
p _ Transmit a copy of this Minute officially to the
Commissioners of Stamps and Taxes, and to the
Postmaster-General, and desire that the Postmaster-
General will direct the Solicitor of the Post-office,
I after conferring with the Solicitor of the Stamps
and Taxes, to prepare the necessary warrant for
Athorising the use of stamps, as proposed in this
Minute, such warrant to be inserted in the Gazette,
pursuant to the provisions of the Act.

The City of London School Committee received a
letter, which has caused a sensation amongst the Mem-
bers of the Corporation, from a gentleman who was can-'::
didate for the situation of First Master of the School,
vacant by the resignation of the Rev. Doctor Gales. •
Upon the resignation of Dr. Giles, the Committee,
proceeded to take such steps as were necessary to enable
the Court, as early as possible, to fill up the vacant
office, and having accordingly - issued an advertisement,
inviting gentlemen desirotis of becoming candidates to
send in testimonials of their fitness for the office, caused
such testimonials to be submitted to the Professors of
King's College, London, and University College, Lon-
don, who are named iu the Act of Parliament, in order
that they might, in conformity with the Act, select and
return suet' candidate as in their opinion was best qua-
liLd. The Professors accordingly reported in favour
of the following gentlemen :—The Rev. Benjamin
Rigglesworth-Beatson, A., Fellow and Classical Len-
ture-, Pembroke College, Cambridge.
The Rev. Dzrwent Coleridge, M.A., of S. John's
College, Cambridge, Head Master of Heiston Grammar

EVENING EDITION.

COACH-OFFICE CHARGES AND

THE PENNY POST.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SlR—Having seen in your Paper a reference on
several occasions to the loss sustained by the coach
proprietors in reference to parcels, which can now
be forwarded through the penny post, and having per-
ceived that the remarks seem to have a tendency to
excite a commisseration for such coach proprietors,
it is but just to call to mind the exorbitant charges
that these coach proprietors make for the porterage
of parcels.
I have now before me a long list of bills upon
which I find carria;e paid one shilling for a parcel
from Norwich, and porterage in London, from the
coach-office to my house, eightpence. These men
have now their reward, and they deserve it. The
penny post has, in a great measure, freed us from
their greed, and the revenue and the public will both
be benefited.—Your obedient servant,

NEW LABEL.
TN consequence of the great variety of Counter-
feit Wrappers of " ROWLAND'S SIACASSAII OIL,"
now in erculation, and which so math resemble the original
as frequently to deceive the unwary, the Proprietors, acting
under a sense of duty, and regardless of expense in the attain-
ment of their object, the protection of the public from fraud
and imposition, -have employed those celebrated Artists,
Messrs. Perkins and Bacon, who have succeeded in producing
" A NEW LABEL" from steel, of so complicated and intri-
cate a nature, and of such excessive difficulty of execution, as
to amount to an impossibility of imitation, and to be considered
by connoisseurs a masterpiece in the art of engraving.
The label forms a combination c t beautiful designs, a portion
encircling a BUST of her Majesty the " Queen," which sur-
mounts the words, in two lines,
ROWLAND'S
74ACASSAR OIL,
(the ground Ni crk is composed of the most elaborate and chaste
patterns of lace-work.) Under which are the Signature and
Address of the Proprietors in Red,
A. ROWLAND and SON, 20, Ilatton-garden, London.
Counter-signed, ALEX. ROWLAND.
The Label is backed by a design so exquisite and minute as
to defy competition ; it comprises the words " Rowland's
Macassar Oil," written nearly 1,500 times, and containing
29,028 letters.
iO, liatton-garden, London, January 1, 1840.
The Lowest Price is 3s. 6d. ; the next is. ; or Family
