THE EDITOR'S BOX IN THE

FRENCH CHAMBERS.

The box at the extreme right of the gallery, is that
occupied by the editors-in-chief et the Paris journals ;
and that box is the true political barometer of the
Chamber, though visible only to an initiated few. If
the discussion in progress be important—if M. Guizot,
eI. Thiers, or M. Berryer, be at the tribune, all is
earnest attention ; the silence is broken only by some ex-
clamation of enthusiasm, or some muttered expression
of anger or indignation, mingling with the sign of
blame or assent of the legislators below, during the in-
terruptions so frequent in the French Chamber. But if,
on the contrary, some honourable member attacks the
tribune manuscript in hand, or begins a deliberate para-
phrase of articles of the journals (as happens at times)—
or if there be a suspension of the sittting, enabling
the speech-weary deputies.to rush to the tavern—then
do the occupants of this box, seated on the front benches,
wheel round, and, turning their backs to the Chamber,
get up among themselves a counterpart of the debate be-
w. No pen could do justice to this discussion--so
original, varied, piquant, and at all times jests uctive.
Cutting words, willing fancies, witty sallies, Nircastic
hits. extravagant eulogies, and outrageous invectives,
pass from mouth to mouth, and mingle every tone. Often
the friends or prote„ti3 of* the editors smuggle them-
selves into this box, with a passionate fondness
for the debate. of this Chamber on a small scale. It
is a sight to see, too, with what a polite or in-
sinuating air some belated deputy, or unfortunate re
porter to the Chamber, or orator incompris (there is no
translating the word), bands in a note to those distributers
of praise and blame, defending his representative zeal,
giving explanations, or complaining of a mis-report.
And then this box has its intimate and private con-
versations. It is before the opening of the discussion,
or during the division, that a small part of its fre-
quenters, disdaining the Salle des l'as Perdus, remain
here ; and half reclined on the bencnes, gaily amuse
themselves with small whims, petty crosses, and
private intrigues, of the legislators then crowding
around the tribune. They know a hundred adventures
and anecdotes—like the malicious chroniclers of the
tEil de Bceuf—hnd, for my own part, I have re-
tained more than one of these ; but their repetition
here would be a bad return for my welcome into that box.
I leave them to the ingenious indiscretion of the authors
of all sorts of " Mysteries." The box in question is a
democratic republic ; it has a president, elected at the
commencement of each session, to keep its peace and
maintain order, with the title of Syndic. . • . . But it
is about as impossible to introduce order into this box
as to make the thirty journals of Paris harmonise. The
editers' box is and ever will be a Babel—but an alluring
Babel, and a very instructive one—where I have spent
many a happy hour, and whose diversity of opinions
and sentiments I greatly preftr to the uniformity of
praise uttered by my compatriots in the mines of Sibe-
ria, in honour of his Majesty the Emperor of all the
Russias.—From a Journey round the Chamber of Deputies

ERRATA.—In our Third Edition of last evening the
first division in the House of Commons should have been
given as on the Coventry, Nulieaton Birmingham, and
Leicester Railway Bill, instead of Le Great Grimsby
and Sheffield Junction Railway Extension Bill. The
Great Grimsby and Sheffield Junction Railway and
Grimsby Docks Consolidation Bill was read a third time and
passed before the gallery was opened, after the first division ;
and the debate on the Huddersfield and Sheffield Junction
Railway Bill was commenced. The division which we have
given as on the fonber Bill took place on the latter. This
mistake is one of the ill consequences of the absurd practice
of clearing the gallery during a division. as it is utterly im-
possible for a reporter to know what passes during the time
the gallery is vacant; and, from the noise and confusion
always prevailing during the transaction of private business
in the House, it is always difficult, and frequentlyimpossible,
even when present, accurately to ascertain what Bill is
under consideration.
FORD ABISEY.—The sale of this celebrated mo-
nastery is fast approaching, and the trustees, it should seem,
have determined that the auction on the 9th of July shall be
a peremptory one. There are strong hints and inuendos
that the Roman Catholics have it in contemplation to possess
it , one thing is certain, this splendid pile has no contem-
porary for their purpose throughout England. The rental of
2,0001. a year without the monastery would find lots of com-
petitors in case the Roman Catholics do not need the whole.
DISAPPEARANCE OF THREE HOUSES.—An alarming
and very extraordinary circumstance took place yesterday
se'nnight at Hateley-heath, West Bromwich—the total and
immediate disappearance of three houses, in consequence of
the thick coal having been got from under them some time
since. The houses were inhabited, but fortunately no lives
were lost. About halt-past eight o'clock the middle of one
of the houses suddenly fell in, an alarm was given, and as
soon as the people could get out, the whole of the buildings
immediately sank down with a great crash, the tops of the
houses being five or six yards below the level of the surface,
covered with the earth which had fallen in around them.
The unfortunate occupants of the houses have lost the whole
of their property.—Birmingham Gazette.
THE REPORTED CAOLERA AT HULL.—We have it in
our power to give the most unqualified contradiction to a report
inserted in the Manchester Guardian of the day before yesterday,
to the effect that the Asiatic cholera had broken out in Hull.
The statement fell with surprise upon all parties here, the
public as well as the profession. The town, like most other
}laces just now, is much hotter than usual, but, measles and
hoofing coughs excepted, to which juvenile " flesh is heir,"
is capable of affording the most satisfactory bills of health.—
Hull Packet.
STRANGE SUICIDE.—On Monday an inquest was held
before Mr. Bedford, at the White Hart, White Hart-street,
Drury-lane, on the body of Rowland Turner, aged thirty-
three, who destroyed himself under the following circum-
stances :—The deceased lived at No. 1, Bedford-court, and
was a brassfounder. He was greatly addicted to drinking.
On Friday when he went home he said to his wife, " You
little know the trouble that is coming to you," and then sent
her out for a pint of beer. When she came back he was
sick before the fire, and he told her, " We shall meet again
in the next world." He had alcup in his hand, and there was
something white in it. It was ascertained to be corrosive
sublimate, which had been taken in a very large quantity.
The deceased, when dying, said he had taken it by mis
take. Verdict, " Temporary insanity, brought on by exces-
sive drinking."
MERCHANT TAILORS' ScHooL.—The annual dinner
took place yesterday evening ; Mr. Hessey, late head master
of the Merchant Tailors' School, presided, supported by Sir
H. Ellis, Mr. Bellamy, Mr. Parnell, Professor Brown, &c.,
&c. After the usual loyal toasts, the Chairman proposed the
health of the " Old School," which was drunk with great
enthusiasm. The health of Mr. Bellamy (late master) and
of the Chairman was then given. The Chairman next pro-
posed " The prosperity of St. John's College, Oxford." Mi
C. Bellamy returned thanks. The prosperity of the Men
chant Tailors' Company," the " King's College and Pro-
fessor Brown," and various other toasts, were then proposed,
after which the company, amounting to nearly seventy per.
sons, separated.
GREENWICH.—MEETING FOR THE ERECTION OF A
Naw CHURCIL—On Monday a numerous meeting of the in-
habitants took place, at which the Right Rev. the Bishop of
London presided. There were also present Sir R. Stopford,
Governor of Greenwich Hospital, J. Angerstein, Esq., for-
merly M.P. for the borough, C. Millington, A. Brestow, R.
Twining, G Williams, Esqs., and Professor Airey, the as-
tronomer royal, Rev. W. A. Soames, the vicar, Revds. D.
Jones, Hughes, W. Greenlaw, Greenlaw, jun., Mortimer,
Goldney, Christie, North, Sketchley, Lock, Sims, &c., the
churchwardens, and other parochial officers. Resolutions to
carry into effect the object for which the meeting was con-
vened, were unanimously agreed to. At the conclusion of
the proceedings it was announced that nearly 2,000/. had
been raised towards the erection of the building. including
201. from the Queen Dowager, 50/. from the Bishop or Lon-
don, 200/. from the vicar, the Rev. W. A. Soames, 200/. from
Angerstein, Esq., 1001. from R. Twining, Esq., 1001. from
Coles Child, Esq ,1001. from C. Millington, Esq., 501. from
Burney, Esq., &c., &c.
SUICIDE BY DROWNlNG.—Yesterday Mr. W. Baker,
Deputy Coroner, held an inquest at the Five Bells, Old Ford,
Bow, on James Malian, aged forty years. The deceased
said to a fellow-workman, who gave him a pint of beer, on
' Saturday last, " God knows whether I shall evei live to re-
pay you. ' He was never seen again alive. His body was
found as above described. The jury returned a verdict of
"Temporary insanity."
STEAM POWER.—Above one hundred thousand men
were employed far twenty years in erecting the great py-
ramid of Egypt. From a computation by M. Dupin, it ap-
pears that the steam-engines of England would equal the
whole product of this immense application of human labour,
in lifting stones, within the short apace of eighteen hours.

GRATIFYING TESTIMONIAL.-On Wednesday last,
the Rev. H. Dale, M.A. (of Worcester College, Oxford):
Principal to the Bishop's College, Bristol, was presented
(previous to his quitting this neighbourhood for the Black-
heath Proprietary School) with a most gratifyini and
vincing proof of the esteem and regard
of his coadjutors and pupils. The testimonial, which was raised by subscription,
is in the form of a very valuable
and truly elegant silver ink-
' stand, bearing the arms of the institution and a Latin inscrip-
tion. It was accompanied by an address (on ornamental
vellum) expressive of sorrow and regret at the loss of such
an efficient arid beloved Principal. Bristol Journal.
We find it stated, in a French scientific paper, that
Si aria contains gold' in such abundance, that I s discovery is
likely to produce a financial revolution in Europe similar to
that which took place on the discovery of Peru. In the
period of the last fourteen years, the produce of the gold
mines in that country is said to have doubled. Eleven thou-
sand parsons are daily empl,yeu in washing the mineral;
and three times tne number count be so occupied it the hani,s
could be found. Nothing but this want of labourers, adds
our authority, prevents the markets of Etu-opq from being
ailed with the gold of this rich deposit.

LITERATURE.
BURNS' FIRESIDE LIBRARY.
We have from time to time noticed these volumes as
they have individually appeared, and now we have the
entire series before us, comprising twenty elegant little
volumes, bound in crimson and gold, varying from
" grave to gay, from lively to severe," and forming an
admirable little library of instruction and amusement
for children of all ages and all capacities, and even for
those "of larger growth." In the very interesting pre-
face to Schiller's „Maid of Orleans" (in this series),
the trar.slator observes, " I hold it no unblest work to
provide for the pure entertainment of my kind, and to
be instrumental in making amusement conducive to
intellectual and spiritual elevation." This very beau-
tiful and benevolent belief is evidently not that alone Of
the translator of one volume ; it has been the guiding
principle which has regulated the whole work. To
amuse while it instructs, to improve while it entertains,
is the object of the series, as a series ; and is also the
object, mere or less, of each component part. History
and Fiction are here familiarly entwined, Remance, as
it were, joining the hands of each ; and while on the
ne hand we find Truth to be stranger even than Fic-
tion, on the other Fiction borrows new charms from its
analogy to Truth. These potent monarchs of the world
of literature hold divided sway over this little library.
Feremest among the historical works is " The Lives
of celebrated Greeks and Romans," taken from Plutarch,
but in which (in order to render it more fitting for every
reader), we are informed " everything objectionable has
been omitted, and much useful matter added from other
authorities." Such a work requires no comment ; it
will be far more welcome to many a youthful reader
than the most attractive wonders of Arabian romance.
The pages of Plutarch are woven with many a student's
dreams ; as the pioneer of the past, he portrays to us the
glorious deeds of old, and prompts young ambition to
emulate what he admires : over those pages hung en-
raptured the hero of modern times, he whose high
genius was to eclipse what his youthful fancy first
revered, and amid his many high-sounding titles is hardly
one more honourable than that bestowed on him in his
early youth, " one of Plutarch's men." Hardly iaferior
in interest to the Greek and Roman heroes are two small
volumes devoted to "The Lives of Englishmen in Past
Days," comprising many of the good and great among
our countrymen; first and foremost of whom occur the
names, deservedly dear to all, of Alfred the Great and
Sir T. More. In a Firseside Library, poetry, of course,
is indispensable, more especially ballads and old songs,
which, emanating from, and appealing to, the warmest
feelings of the heart, are peculiarly appropriate to the
domestic hearth. Accordingly, in this series we find
one volume of " Ballads and Metrical Tales," another
of " Lays from English History," one of " Northern
Minstrelsy and Scottish Song," and one of " German
.Ballads." The book of " Scottish Song " is a treasure
in itself, and when we say, that besides many beautiful
pieces by minor poets, it contains, "The Cotter's Satin.;
day Night ;" " Scots wha hae ;" "For a' that, and is
that," and many others of the chief and choicest
" beauties of Burns"—that it is adorned by many inter-
esting illustrations, especially by a frontispiece repro-
senting "John Anderson and his Wile"
explanations will be needless—none will doubt the
justice of our asseveration. It is hardly necessary to
enumerate the varied volumes devoted to romantic fiction;
conspicuous among these are " Marco Visconti,. nO!,
first translated from the Italian of Tomasso Grassi, and
w--further
the tales of the Baron Fonque ; among others the
" Magic Ring," and the far-famed " Undine." Nor is
Fonque the only German whose productions are here
offered to the lovers of romance ; one little volume con:
tains "The Swedes in Prague; or the Signal Rocket,
and " Quentin Matsys," translations from the works of
C. Pichler ; and a second and third, the "Popular
Tales" of Mussens and Wilhelm Hauff, among Thelatter of which is a very interesting one, entitled "
Portrait of the Emperor." " The Old Story Tellers
contains many marvellous legends from the Geste
Romanorum ; and " Prasca Loupodoff," "Select
Fables," and " Household Traditions," will furnish
amusement of a less exciting, but perhaps as agreeable
kind, as the " wild and witching" romances we have
enumerated, and among which we have forgotten to
class the " Twelve Nights' Entertainments." It will
thus be seen that this library must please all kinds, and
all classes, for the ingredients of which it is composed
are all various. Any volume or volumes may be had
seperately. at from half.a,•crown to five shillings, in their
elegant binding, or at a far lower rate in their printed
paper covers; in either case, singly or collectively, they
are admirably suited for " presents and rewards," which
it appears is one object of their being. The only fault
we can find with this collection is its title. It is cer-
tainly a fireside library, but is also something more ; as
if conscious of the omission, it is de cribed in the pro-
spectus as " suited for the fireside, the lending library.
the steam-boat, or the railway carriage ;" it is all this,
and it might have added also—" and an admirable com-
panion for a solitary walk, or an amusing passe-temps
for some idle hours spent under the shadow of the wide-
spreading trees, which, certainly in such weather as this,
would be st far pleasanter place than a fireside.

ALARMING FIRE AT TORPOINT.
(From the Devonport Telegraph.)
About day-break on Thursday morning last the inhabi-
tants of this usually quiet little place were thrown into great
consternation by the cry of fire, which was raging with great
force on the premises of Messrs. Down and Son, grocers and
general dealers. It appears that about half-past three is,
the morning, two little girls about eleven or twelve years of
age, who, as our informant stated, had been working till
that hour at the abominable " stay-stitching," were induced
by the attractions of a lovely summer morning to cease their
toils and venture into the open air, when they discovered
smoke issuing from the premises above stated. They imme-
diately gave the alarm, and the inmates, among whom was
the wife of Mr. Richard Down, who had been but recently
confined, were hastily got out. The ferry bell was rung
loudly, which communicated the alarm to the Caledonia,
Captain M. H. Dixon, in Hamoaze. As on all occasions,
both officers and crew of this ship and others in commission,
instantly made for the spot where assistance was required.
At this time the fire had broke out more fiercely, and the
flames were raging from twenty to thirty feet above the
roof of the building, and the destruction of the
whole range of stores appeared inevitable. The bar'
bour fire-float was immediately unmoored and placed along-
side the quay, and a length of hose sufficient to reac.h
the building on fire was attached, and the engine, which is
worked by a hundred hands, was set to play, and a ton of
water per minute was thrown upon the store in which the
fire broke out. This soon so checked the flames as to expose
the extent of the damage, and the probable result. An en-
gine, with a party of police from the Dockyard, with the
West of England, and County Fire. office engines having ar-
rived, they were supplied with the waste water of the dr.a-
float, and plied it over the adjoining buildings, while tii!
hose of the float was directed with great judgment to op
part of the premises in which the fire first broke out. L'
save the latter, however, appeared next to impossible, gnu-
the attention of all parties was therefore directed tc"
disconnecting the adjoining buildings. The officers and sea"
men, regardless of all danger, set to work with the zeal of a
storming party, and soon effected the object, but not without
a narrow escape to Lieut. Bran:ireth and Mr. Hornabrookr
gunner, of the Constance, who, by the falling of a portion of
the building, were knocked into the burning ruins, in which
the former was buried breast high, and the latter entirely so-
They were, however, speedily rescued, and fortunately were
but slightly injured. After three hours' hard work, the par-
ties of seamen and marines ceased their labours, and by their
exertions alone any portion of Messrs. Down's stock or pre'
miser were rescued from the destruction which, from the
fury of the flames and the inflammable nature of the former,
appeared at first their certain fate. The property was insured
in the Norwich Union Fire-office in 1,700/. The extent of
the loss it is impossible yet to ascertain. There is one other
gentleman, of whom we must not in justice fail to mar
honourable mention, the Rev. R. Dunning, under whose ju 1"
cious directions and example the inhabitants exerted their
selves to the utmost before the arrival of more efficient a of
and who subsequently greatly aided in the saving of the pit:be;
perty, which was removed and deposited in the chapel.
cause of the fire is as yet but conjecture.

ATROCIOUS MURDER.—GALWAY, JUNI; 20.--We re-
gret to state, that on the night of Thursday last a barbarolg
murder was committed at a village near Woodford, in till!
county. The unfortunate object of the assassin's vengeanc.
was a man named Pat. Hill. Two persons came into his
house, and brought him out of his bed to a place about forty
yards distant, and there inflicted no less than forty two
bayonet wounds on his person, besides a fractute of the
skull. His wife hearing his screams went to his assistance,
and having begged for mercy, she was told by the heartless
ruffians that if she did not go away she would herself be
treated in like manner. Having completed their purpose,
the miscreants, who are unknown, walked off, and their vic-
tim almost immediately expired. An inquest was held.
yesterday, at Portumna, before Thomas W'al,h,

Amidst the bright scene we delightfully treasure,
We witness with ecstacy juvenile pleasure I
Their light-hearted revels we cherish with joy,
Whilst the face is illumin'd of each beautiful boy I
Oh there is not a youth, we may venture to say,
But enraptured looks forth to the bright holiday ;
And amongst all the transports, and many are those,
There is nothing that pleases so much as New Clothes

The very best Clothing provides for each youth,
Transcendently high his great name now it shines.
For Hussar Suits and Tunics of novel designs I

Of his splendid assortment of Juvenile Clothes !
