The decline in the price of Tea this week has been I%d.
to 2d. per pound, a circumstance not at all to he
wondered at, seeing the immense quantity pressed upon
the market. The public sales, in fact, are a great loss of time
and trouble to many parties in the trade, as there is conse-
quently su large a proportion withdrawn.
The stock of Tea in London now is estimated at 28.849,779

BRUSSELS, JUNE 10.—The average price of wheat last
week was 17f. 58c., and that of rye 101 28c. rer.hectolitre.
Bitussms, JUNE 11.—The Infantas of Spain have ar-
rived at Molines, where they intend to pass some time ;
one is 18, the other 10 years of age. They travel under
the names of Count de Mauzon and Count de Montello.
The private information which we receive from Hol-
land (says the Precurseur of Antwerp) assures us that
not only an alliance between William IL and Louis
Philippe is in contemplation, but the marriage of the
Prince de Joinville to Princess Sophia is as good as
decided.
THE HAGUE, JUNE B.—The King and Queen and
Princess Sophia will go on Thursday to Soetsdyk, where
the Queen and her daughter will remain during the King's
tour to Groningen, Friesland, Overyfsel, and I)reuthe.
UTRECHT, JUNE 9.—The King set out this morning at
half-past five o'clock for Rotterdam, whence he will go
by steamboat to Nimeguen, where he will make his so-
lemn entry on Friday, at ten o'clock. His Majesty is
expected on Saturday at Venloo, on Sunday at Hoer-
monde, and on Monday at Maaestricht, where it is said
said he will stop three days.
ST. PETERSBURGH, MAY 30.—The Emperor arrived
at Moscow on the 25th. The people immediately flocked
in crowds to the:Kremlin, to welcome his Majesty in the
usual manner. When the Emperor left the Palace to go
to the Cathedral, the Oople expressed their joy by the
loudest acclamations. His Majesty was received at the
Cathedral by the Archbishop of Moscow and the superior
clergy, with the cross and the holy water. After a short
prayer and thanksgiving, his Majesty preformed his
devotions before the images of the saints and the relics
of the martyrs.
TRIESTE, JUNE 2.—The state of Candia seems to be
more and more serials, and has an unfavourable effect
on the trade of Gi eecs wad the islands. All the letters
express the greats. t iu:erest in the fate of the Candiots,
but at the same time apprehension that their insurrec-
tion will lead to consequences injurious to-the Greeks in
the other Turkish provinces, as the Mussulmans Manifest
their' hatred to them on every occasion.. The sudden
deposition of the Greek Patriarch at Constantinople,
which took place on the 19th, in the &ening, is con-
sidered a bad sign.
PESTR, MARCH 30.—Letters just received from
Koschou, say that that town, -the largest and most
flourishing in Upper Hungary, has been nearly destroyed
by fire.*—Allgenteine Zeitung, June 7.
• Accounts from Vienna of the 2d do no: mention this news,

MORNING EDITION.

REPRESENTA lON OF MARY -
• BONE.
Since we reported the proeeedings which took place.
at the great meeting of the electors of Mary-lehene, held
Chesney's Assembly Rooms, Foley-s:reet, 011-" fr
eght, circumstances have occurred whiteh induce
4`1,"
Reporter of The Sun to request permission to insert the
ollowing letter which has been published in the' Morn-
ing Chronicle by the very respectable reporter, wn
has attended the recent meetings in the borough, fur
that paper :
" TO THE EDITOR OF THE MORNING CHRONICLE.
" Sir—ln answer to the complaint of Mr. Benjamin.
Wall, relative to the reports of the meetings in Maxie
h bone, inserted in the Morning Chronicle, I beg to of-
:eer the following explanation :—First, Mr. W. declares
that the amendment moved by Mr. Duffil, at the She-
pherd and Flock, in High-street, Marylebone, en Wed-
nesday evening; and supported by Mr. Young's friends,
was carried 'by a large majority.' Now, Sir, I beg
leave most distinctly to declare that the reverse was tne
fact ; and, in proof thereof, I will to-morrow procure
the signature of Mr. Hutchings, the chairman of the
meeting, in support of my assertion.
" With respect to the ' pompous list' of Sir Charles
Napier's meetings, I beg to refer Mr. Wall to Mr.;
Ivimey's letter, inserted in the Chronicle, of the 10th, 0"
to fearlessly assert that the following is a correct result
of every meeting at which Sir C. Napier has attended in
the borough, and at which I have been present :—At
the first meeting, held at the Yorkshire Sting°, the show
of hands in favour of Commodore Napier was allowed to
be four to one on all hands. At the second meeting, the
Royal Oak, Bayswater, there was only one opponent, Aug
that a lad of 16. At ie third meeting, at the Duke ?
York, Portland-town, there were only seven flab
held up against Sir Charles Napier. At the on'''.
meeting, at the King and Queen,, Paddington-greli
there were again seven hands against him. At the fift-,
held at the Lord High Admiral, Church-street, Portman-
market, the same seven appeared against the Comm
dore ; and be it observed, that here some of the miseer,."
sentations made by Mr. B. Wall, and inserted by hi"'
advertisements in the public papers, were taken notice e
by the Gallant Candidate, and refuted by him in the
presence of Mr. Wall himself, The sixth meeting t",eir
place at the Assembly-rooms, in Kentish-tow'', 31,r'
Churchwarden Ileughton in the chair; and here ere3d4
seven hands were against the Commodore, which 13'
dueed him to observe that ' seven was the main at everr •
meeting.' The seventh took place at the Royal Standard'
in Frederick-street, Hampstead-road, Mr. T. H. Cooper
in the chair, and here Sir C. Napier was strenuoueV ,
opposed,' for what the 6iends of Mr. Young were de;
theca in argument they made up for in clamour • .
on the show of hands (I will procure the signature Of uw
Chairman to support my statement) being taken in the
room, Mr. Cooper declared the numbers to be for Sir ~
•
Napier ninety-Seven, against him fifty-seven. Thee";
were hundreds who could not get in, and who, elt,e4
hearing Sir C. Napier again, on the outside, Pss,
his resolution unanimously. At the eighth, the P°,'
man Arms, Great Quebec-street, the seven oPP°nee9;
were, on a show of hands, reduced to four. At the "`
held at the North London Institute, King's-cross, whe
'7
there were about 1,200 electors present, Major Iles
presided, and that gentleman will at any time come for-
ward, and assert that there were but three hands held 'JP
against Sir C. Napier. At the 10th meeting held at th!
eamden Head, Camden Town, the meeting decided unany
mously that Sir C. .Napier was a tit and proper person
represent the borough. At the Bee-hive, in Chepel-stree. '
Somers-town, Major Revell in the chair, I find 1 stilted
ro
m y report that the meeting was unanimously in r evt
--eiv
of the Commodore, as, from the unfavourable position
which I was placed, at the farther endeand the creed
state of the room, I could not perceive a single hn,rlhe
against Sir Charles, but on referring this day to
Gallant Chairman, I find I made a mistake, as there were
three dissentients out of a meeting of 500. any
• e
" Sir, it is not my province to impute motives to
one, but how Mr. Wall can assert that the Cowl:mit,
has been " signally defeated" in Christchurch, itlisn';
Pancras, and High-street, Marylebone, with the
r;
facts on record, lam at a loss to imagine. I eheueo7.-
Mr. Wall to point out the inaccuracies and eleisrer:sei ri
sentations in my reports. I always endeavour to I, -
them impartially, and I am sorry to have proOke
person to utter that which thousands can contriell'Ut-
" I am, Sir, your obedient servant, ,01.
" 6, Upper College-grove, " THE REPOII.'•
"Camden. town, June 11, 1841." „ sd-
At the meeting on Friday, Sir C. Napier read an eel
vertisement, which had appeared in one of the PaPer", .01;
that day, signed by his " old friend, Benjamin WA" , 4
(Cheers and laughter)—which " cautioned the ales -C,
not to place confidence in the prepared reports of Sir 4
Napier," and asserted that " he had been" streeel,°ll;a
opposed at every meeting lie held, and signally dele7The
at_ Christ Church, St. Pancras, and High-street.-
Gallant Commodore then declared the statements ill ".0
advertisement to be absolutely false. He said it
true that he had been strenuously opposed, first by se‘
then by three, and at last by none.--(Cheers and grf
laughter.) On the preceding evening he had attendeO,,,, ,
meeting of seven or eight huedred electors, and of tue....7.
fifteen persons held up their hands against
(Cheers and laughter.) - Was that defeat ?—(Lauglite...j
He had next to deal with Mr. Wall's master, Mr. Young' ct
(Great uproar.) The G;illant Commodore then enteral
into a lengthened statement of the opinions which he l'the:.,,e
already, at so many meetings, fully explained to ie.,
electors on the subject of the Poor-laws and flog
the navy. It appeared from a report in the lieern;ce
Advertiser of that day, that Mr. Young had represent-
him, notwithstanding the frequent and public deel"-e
tions of his sentiments to the contrary, to be an e
cate of the present system of Poor-laws and of Hogs, +')
in the navy.—(Vehement cries of " hatne, shur,d-;e-
His declarations on those subjects had ,been, full`. "05
ported, and Mr. Young had- perverted his statement ,tll6
he had before done at the first meeting, held et tea e.
Yorkshire Stingo.—(Cheers.) Mr. Young was rep`
to say of him, that "he (Sir C. Napier) was said t' so,
Reformer."—(Great laughter.) Perhaps it was tee)
and if it was, it was only true.—(Cheers and lack ' t;ett
But it could not be said of him, as of Mr. Yollug'oetel
" he was once a Tory and now a Reformer."—j`en eter
cheering and laughter.) The Gallant Commodore.in
ceeded to give an exposition of his political opilli°',,ea
favour of the Ballot and short Parlialuentts,door
amelioration of the Poor-law system, her 'I 0011"
relief,. and rendering workhouses places of . 11 of
fort and refuge, instead of prisons;
Church-rates, and the proposed measures of the GuTs'f ea
ment for cheapening the necessaries of life. He `",heat .
this occasion, cheered most enthusiastically thrtniPll the
his address, as he has been at every other meeting
,I.ept •
borough, and a resolution, pledging the electors 1), ai„
to support him in the ensuing contest, was carrit°
majority of far more than 400 to 27. stoa
Of the minority, however, there were some I"' got,
close under the chair, and assailed the reporters lee7st,n,
in a manner which provoked the Reporter of Theyhjele, ,
with great reluctance, to make some observations, ,;
although challenged, it is not in his power to re' betel
beyond this, that he declared his reports to have h 956
strictly impartial, and that the advertisement, wn'ct 001
the abolitio_
serted that the Commodore had been defeated
meeting, was an untruth.

AND CONVERSION OF WILLIAM
HONE.
NVe took Ward, London, 1841.
that • uP this pamplet under an impression
1,.0 it Was
Ilsnel, the wanell
autobiographical memoir of Mr.
-known parodist, whose trials for
iIeIMY at Guildhall attracted such general
.;:;:it' "-e ahout twenty years since ; bet On Perusing
:14Ahvree-rf(ma.d that it was aa unfinished life of his
written by the o'(1 eetlernan himself, not
before his death, I:vhereia he details the
tr"letilars Of his early life, and his conversion
014 Infidelity to Methodism. The narrative

is written pretty much in the fashion of the late
Mr. • Hwitingdon, - the celebrated Evangelical
preacher, • who, it may be remembered, on one
occasion prayed for a pair of breeches, and was
immediately rewarded by a celestial present of
a pair of corduroy shorts, which had only
one defect,- namely, that they were a very
indifferent fit. Mr. Hone attributes his con-
version to the agency of an extraordinary
dream, from which he tells us he woke in
extreme terror, " having seen himself drop into
hell, in the midst of flames." The dream made.
a deep impression on him, and he became in
consequence 'exceedingly nervous and low-spi-
rited ; but at length, after twenty-four hours ,
spiritual tribulation, a great change carne over
him, arid he adds, in a highly figurative sen-
tence, the exact meaning of which we do, not
profess to understand, that he bad " beauty for
ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and the gar-
ment of praise for the spirit of heaviness!" The
rest of Mr. Hone's autobiography is penned in
this fanatical style ; and though we gather from
it that the writer • was a good man, we can per-
ceive few or no indications that he was a wise
one. He seems to have been a staunch disciple
of the Lady Huntingdon school—a sect of ami-
able fanatics, whose zeal always outran their dis-
cretion, and who damaged the sacred cause they
professed to uphold, by their extravagant antics
and declamations.

JOURNAL OF CIVILIZATION. Part I.
Smith, London, 1841.
A cheap weekly journal, to be published
every Saturday, under the superintendence
of the Society for the Advancement of
Civilization. By the following extract from
its prospectus, " the reader will be able to
glean a tolerably correct idea of its character :
—" We have nothing to du with any politi-
cal party. The man of business may, there-
fbre, glean from_ our, pages lamination as to the
state of our colonies annl dependencies,
and descry_ commerce as the invariable com-
panion of Christiajt% and civilization; the man
of literatitr: may find sample of modern travels,
either to Satisfy or stiinulate his thirst; and the
man of science may. trace, in the fullest confi-
dence, the progress and the results of geo-
graphical discovery. All will be aided by pie-
orial illustration, where verbal description fails,
or by which it may be made more pleasing and
effective. Maps of countries, coasts, and towns,
and engravings of localities peculiarly interest-
ing, of the aspect and usages of the various tribes
of men, and of the animal and vegetable products
which most nearly concern the human family,
will be prepared in the higheSt style of accuracy
and beauty." The Par before us contains many
of the varieties alluded to in the above extract;
and among them is a terse, neatly written ac-
count of New Zealand, accompanied by a map of
that promising colony.

THE PLAY-FELLO TV.
Knight, London, 1841.
Under the agreeable and social title of the
" Play-Fellow," ,Miss Martineau proposes to pub-
lish a series of prose tales, which are to come out
quarterly, and of which the volume before us -is
the first, and, we may add, a favourabie specimen.,
It consists of two stories toil in that simple, fami-
liar manner so attractive to young readers, and
each is placed in striking and instructive contrast
to the other. The one is illustrative of peasant
life, and the other of royal life, in France; and
the moral to be drawn from both .maybe summed
up in one sentence—all is not gold that.glitters.
The last ta.!e is the best, and describes the career
of royalty in France during the stormy years of
the first Revolution. Fur the materials Miss
Martineau is indebted to Tillers, and the enter-
taining memon.s of Madame Campo'', and she
has turned the anecdotical information derived
from these sources to exce:lent account. We
think she is likely to succeed in this new scheme
of fictitious narrative, for she possesses a clear,
succinct, and lively style, throws out thoughts
and suggestions well calculated to impress them-
selves on the minds of young .eaders, and fails
only in the delineation of character, which, how-
ever, in slight tales of this-sort will not be much.
required.

STANDARD NO VELS, No. LXXXIV.
Bentley, London, 1841.
Miss Ferrier's novel of ‘‘ The Inheritance,"
which at the time of its first appearance attained
a more than average share of popularity, is re-
published in this Number, and has received the
last finishing touches of the author, who has re-
vised it expressly for this edition. The volume
possesses the additional recommendation of two
cleverish engravings, the designs for which have
been furnished by Cawse.
