THE MATCH-MAKER.—The clever author o
" Cousin Geoffry," " The Marrying Man," &c., has jusl
produced another work of fiction called the " Match-
maker." The very title of this work must invest it witl

a boundless attraction, not only to those worthyn;thers
who arc blessed with daughters ready to be married,or given
in marriage, but to the fair espectants of matrimonial
felicity themselves. The subject could not have fallen
into better hands than those of the writer of " Cousin
Geoffrey ;" and we understand that, like the popular
" History of a Flirt," published a short time since, " The
Match-maker" combines no small share of moral instruc..
tion with its piquant sketches of manners and society.
THE GUN TRADE.—The Birmingham manu-
facturers are now receiving some large orders from the
United States. These orders had been suspended while
the M‘Leod affair was pending, but were issued after
the trial had concluded. The calamitous fire at the
Tower will also give employment to a considerable num-
ber of hands in the gun trade. Upon the whole, the
prospects of the Birmingham artisans for the winter are
• more cheering than could have been anticipated a short
I time since.
A deputation from the British Medical Aseocia-
; tion, consisting of Mr. Read, and six other members of
the Society, had a long interview with Sir J. Graham
Saturday, at the Home-office.

SPIRIT of the PUBLIC JOURNALS.
FROM THE EVENING PAPERS OF SATURDAY.
GLOBE.—It is not often that the Tories are ac-
cused of refusing to pay the price of political services,
and, indeed, they have rather been considered in the
light of unscrupulous dealers, who are ready to
purchase, without asking questions, anything that
se, ms likely to be of the smallest use to them. The
Conservative party has always kept a species of " fence,"
where people who are not over particular may dispose
of worn-out cansciences, and coats that have been
once or twice turned ; where, in fact, not merely the
greater lights of politics, but the very candle-ends and
rushlight pieces are eagerly received, and the " highest
prices given," for the purpose of securing them. It,
however, very often happens that those who take their
commodities to the Tory market are surprised at finding,
that on coming to weigh them, in order to ascertain the
amount to be received, they are much lighter in the
settles of the purchaser than the vender could possibly
have supposed ; for the Conservative traders, like the
ordinary dealers in marine stores, have a distinct
set of weights and measures by which they esti-
mate whatever they are going to buy, and which are
considerably above the ordinary standard. A party
tool, therefore, which is offered for the value of the
brass it contains, seldom weighs nearly so much in the
buyer's as it does in the seller's scale, and the latter
has often cause to grumble at the insufficiency of the
price that is tendered him. It was to be supposed,
that after a long suspension of business on the part of
Peal and Company, the re-opening of the concern
for the purchase of miscellaneous articles would
crea!e a considerable rush of persons who have
long been waiting the opportunity to dispose of their
commodities. The result is, that after so long an ac-
cumulation
of unsold rubbish, there is now a perfect
glut of it ; and lamps of brass, bits of lead, habits so
long discarded that they never can be resumed, with
Tory tag-rag of every description, come pouring in
upon Sir Rabat t Peel with so much rapidity, that it is
impossible he can take in all the trash that is eagerly
brought to him. Some must necessarily be dismissed
with their wares, and these will naturally go away growl-
ing at the unfairness of a selection which has excluded
them from a share in its benefits.
STANDARD.—Mr. Warren is admitted on all
sides to hold rank amongst the most distinguished law-
yers at the Irish bar ; indeed, taking the test of Sala-
we should say that he must hold the very highest
place, for every one places him second to some par-
ticular favourite of his own. He is a gentleman
of decided principles in religion and politics, one
who has taken an active and laborious part in
the Christian education of the Irish peasantry, and,
to put the seal upon his claims, be is denounced as
a Protestant bigot by Mr. Daniel O'Connell. It is
impassible that any Protestant Conservative can sur-
mise an objection to such a man. But though Mr.
Warren may not be " loved 1.155," others it ap-
pears ests

ought,‘V in theopinion
of some, to be preferred before the claims of Mr.
Warren, which are merely personal and profes-
sional. Would th:s be fair to the individual? Would
it be just to the public ? Assuming the profes-
sional claims of the three gentlemen to be equal—and
no superiority is claimed for either of the others
over Mr. Warren, that gentleman has one, and what
in this country would be considered a decisive advan-
tage over them—we see, by the Irish law-list, that Mr.
Warren was called to the bar in Michaelmas Term,
1806 ; Mr. Litton (Easter), 1811 ; Mr. West
(Michaelmas), 1815. Long standing at the bar, as in
any other profession, if unattended by eminence, proves
the reverse of merit ; but when a man has long occu-
pied the first rank in his profession, it is not just to
him, not just to others, that his claim to
promotion from length of standing should be disre-
garded upon slight grounds. It is a wrong committed
upon the bar when such claims arc postponed to
.any
other. Mr. Warren, it is said, bas not served his
country in Parliament ; what then ?—he has served
his country not less effectually. The late Attorney-
General Saurin, in his after life the object of the un-
qualified admiration of the Irish Conservatives, never
sat in the Imperial Parliament ; and it would not be
less for the honour of his memory if be had never sat
in the Irish Parliament, as Mr. O'Connell has proved
by quotations from his anti union speeches. Why may
not Mr. Warren as effectually serve his country out of
Parliament as Mr. Saurin did ?
