not given beer at the usual price. Some bakers' and
grocers' shops were plundered. At the Pschorr
Keller, a large beer-brewery, the waiters defended
themselves, and three of the mob were killed. The
mob stormed the house, however, and threw every-
thing out of the windows—beds, furniture, clothes,
and locking-glasses--which the people below de-
stroyed or carried off. The military at length mac'#
its appearance, and some thirty of the most conspi-
cuous of the rioters were arrested. A few barricades
were erected. Further riots were feared, but they
have no political character whatever. A courier was
sent to the King, who was absent, to inform him of
what was going on."

MARKET NEWS -(THIS DAY.)

CORN EXCHANGE-WEDNESDAY.
A very moderate supply of English Wheat has been
received up to our market this week, and the stands
were scantily supplied with samples of both red and
white. Selected qualities commanded a steady sale, at
prices fully equal to those obtained on Monday. The
middling and inferior kinds were a slow inquiry, at late
rates. Only 3,720 quarters of Foreign Wheat have
come in. This morning the show of samples was good;
nevertheless most descriptions moved off steadily, and
the quotations were well supported in every instance.
We had a better demand for nearly all kinds of Barley,
especially for malting parcels; but we have no actual
improvement to notice in value. In Malt a fair average
amount of business was doing at full prices. Good
sound Oats were quite as dear. Other parcels were
neglected. Beans, Peas, Indian Corn and Meal were
dull in sale. The top price of the best town-made Flour
was 48s. per 280Ib.

abused them. Immediately after this he rushed
into a public-house, and immediately commenced
creating a riot, when the landlord very properly
turned him out. The constable, finding he was
about to create a great noise in the street, requested
him to go away, when the fellow attacked him with
great fury, striking and kicking him repeatedly. On
Williams, 45 B, coming to the other's assistance de-
fendant also attacked him, but with less severity.
Defendant did not offer a word in reply to the
charge.
Mr. BRODERIP committed him for one month for
the assault on Healey, and a further period of four-
teen days for the attack upon Williams.

IMPORTS FROM EUROPE.

British Cotton Piece Goods—The business done has
not been so extensive as might have been anticipated
from the animated re-opening of trade after the holi-
days this may be ascribed to the interruption of holi-
days before alluded to, and to diminish confidence on
the part of the natives towards the European
community. Towards the close of last week, consider-
able sales were effected. Since the mail came in there
has been a total cessation of all transactions. White
and Gray Shirtings continue in good demand at full
prices. Twills are in moderate inquiry. In Jaconets
we have little alteration to notico. Bleached have been
in fair demand. Grays are not so much wanted, but
holders are firm. The demand for shirtings has in-
fluenced the inquiry for Madapolams, which are also in
demand at better mces. In Mull Mulls there has been
no change. Books are firm, and the better qualities of
Lappets higher. Red Twills are improving, being in-
quired for. and the stock small.
Cotton Prwist—Mule Twist—A good deal has been
done in this description of yarn during he last few
days, and large sales are reported at improved prices in
some numbers. In Nos. 30, 40, and 50, and particularly
30, an advance of to 1 pie in former price may be
quoted. The demand is steady and the prospect of the
article improving. We may venture to predict that a
further rise will take place. In Turkey red we have
only one 'sale to report of No. 30 to 60 at 1-6 rs. per lb.
Woollens are flat.

Metals—Copper—The demand is well maintained,
with an advance of Ba. on tile, which is quoted at 37r.
Ba. to 38r. Sheathing at 48r. to 50r., old at 40r. Ba.,
and yellow metal 40r. Spelter—A slight decline has
taken place in this metal, and oar present quotations
are 12r. to 12r. 2a. Iron is very firm for all kinds but
hoop, which has gone back a little. Our quotations are
3r. 14a. to 4r. 2a. for English flat, square bar and hoop
at 6r. Lead—There is little doing, but prices are firm,
our quotations are 7r. 9a. to 7r. 10a. for pig, and 7r. 10a.
7r. 14a. for sheet. Block tin is in fair demand, ancl sales
are reported at 37r. 4a. to 37r. Ba. per fy. md.
Beer continues to find free vent at 70r. per hhd. for
Alsopp's and Bass. Subjoined is a statement exhibit-
ing the imports for the past three years, by which it
will be observed that a great falling off has taken place
this year : _ _

THE WEST INDIA MAIL.

SOUTHAMPTON, SUNDAY' NIGHT. -The Severn
steam-ship, Captain Vincent, arrived this evening
from the Gulf of Mexico, bringing also the usual
West India Mail. She was not expected for two or
three days, but having been favoured with fine wea-
ther, she has made an extremely rapid passage from
Bermuda, her last island of departure. Her latest
dates are—Tampico, November 23 ; Chagres, No-
vember 26 ; Carthagena, November 28 ; Vera Cruz,
December 1 ; Trinidad, December 7 ; Jamaica,
December 8 ; Granada, December 9 ; Demerara,
December 5 ; Havannah, December 10; St. Thomas,
December 13 ; and Bermuda, December 20.
The Severn has brought a goodly freight, consisting
of 693,418 dollars, on merchants' account ; 9,400
ounces of gold dust, nearly 9,0001. in British coin,
four bales of silk, 326 balls of pimento, 12 serons of
cochineal, 228 bales of tobacco, 57 cases of cigars, 23
cases of barilla, nine packages of indio, &c.
MOVEMENTS OF HER MAJESTY S SLUM—The
Daring was at Sagrificios and the Endymion at Bar-
badoes ; the Vixen arrived at Vera Cruz on the 30th
of November and left on the following day for Ja-
maica; the Persian and Vindictive at Bermuda; the
Imaum and Pantaloon at Jamaica ; the Alarm had
left that port;
The Severn brings advices from Mexico down to
the Ist of December, but nothing of any particular
moment had occurred since the receipt of the last
intelligence from that quarter. It was, however, as-
serted, on the departure of the packet, that the
Governor of the city had given orders for the
suppression of the press, in consequence of soma of
the newspapers, established there since the city had
fallen into the hands of the Americans, having pub-
lished certain articles inimical to the views of the Go-
vernment. This was the report, but I cannot vouch
for its correctness.

A large party of volunteers from America, to the
number of 3,000, had arrived, and had committed
great excesses in the city.
It was reported that an American war or troop
steamer had been wrecked off the island of Lobos.
The Severn brings 28 passengers.

Net rental £366 1 0
Or a little more than 44 per cent.
The foregoing statement shows only a return of 44
per cent., or a trifle more, on the outlay, being con-
siderably under what is usually looked fog on house
property. We must not, however, take the buildings
in question as a fair criterion to go by, for I consider
they are built on much too expensive a plan for the
purpose intended. From conversation I have lately
had with an eminent architect, I believe a tenement
o► dwellings for the working classes, of the same di-
mensions and accommodation, could, if judiciously
gone about, ha built for about 30 per cent. less than
Morpeth-buildings. A fair sum to allow for each dwell-
ing, not including the ground, would be, I am informed,
701. Now, multiply this sum by 64, and you have
4,4801. instead of 5,9651., making a difference of
1,485/. ; and leaving the price of the ground as it is
in the statement, the sum would be for the 64 dwel-
lings 6,0871., which would, supposing the net rental
to be the same, give a return of 6 per cent.
The great drawback on buildings of the above
description is that most grievous of all taxes, the
wind6w-tax. It is, without doubt, the most effectual
means of preventing healthful, cheerful, and comfort-
able habitations being erected for the labouring
classes ; and so long as this tax is in existence, or at
least levied on the present system, we Reed never look
for cheerful, well-aired, or well-ventilated dwelling'.
As a matter of course, this tax falls upon the tenant
in the shape of rent; and as he cannot afford to pay
for it, the landlord very naturally does all in his
power to erect houses with just the light necessary to
evade this tax.

The net rental of Morpeth-buildings is 366/. is.,
or a little more than 4f per cent. on the cost, which
is decidedly not an adequate return; but deduct the
window-tax, and the return will be ample. The
window-tax on the buildings in question is 1271., or
more than 20 per cent. on the gross rental, and 1
per cent. on the price, which, if added to the 4i per
cent., gives upwards of 6 per cent.
The window-tax on the Dock-cottages is 6001. per
annum ; and owing to the depressed state of trade
at present in I.3trkenhead, tradesmen are unable to
pay the required rent, and consequently it is con-
sidered more prudent
,to shut them up altogether for
the present, merely to avoid paying this heavy tax.

OPENING OF THE CITY TELEGRAPH STATION.

The electric telegraph station, in Moorgate-street,
opposite the Bank of England, was publicly opened on
Saturday, and messages were transmitted in the course
of the day to Liverpool, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Newcastle,
Leeds, Southampton, Norwich, Yarmouth, and various
other parts in the provinces. The prices charged were
enormous ; 51. 10s. being the amount demanded for
sending a message to Liverpool containing the same

FIRES IN LONDON DURING 1847.—0 n Saturday
the official returns kept by the fire-brigade of the fires
that occur in tho metropolis and its suburbs, were made
up for 1847; from which we learn that no fewer
than 989 have taken place during the past year. The
losses, however, were not so serious as in the previous
year, 1846, when the number was 1,022. Between 400
and 500 houses appear to have been either consumed or
seriously damaged, with a loss of property estimated at
about 150,000/. Those in the provinces, according to
the:fire-offices' returns, are Jar greater in ex tent than
have been known for several years.

A THIEF KILLED WHILE COMMITTING A ROB-
BERY.—On Saturday morning the body of a man, about
thirty years of age, was found in the basement-story of
a new building now erecting in Tipper East Smithfield,
in the parish of Aldgate. He appeared to have been
dead several hours, and the body was quite cold. The
back and neck of the deceased were broken, and be had
received other contusions. On the body of the man
being discovered, an investigation was made by the
police, and it seems that he was in the act of stripping
some lead off the roof of the building which is only par-
tially covered•in, and while doing so the rafters gave
way, and he was precipitated to the ground, a height of
fifty feet, and must have been killed on the spot. He
wit, dressed in a fustian jacket, corduroy knee-breechos,
cloth cap, and blue stockings, and low ewes. There
was nothing found upon him which could lead to his
identity.
RESUMPTION or WORK.—Mr. Tyler and Messrs.
Gardner and Naylor have resumed " short time" at
their mills, and we understand some others commence
on Monday. Should the next overland mail bring fa-
vourable news from India, many mills in Preston will
commence working full time. We are glad to hear of
many signs of improvement even in this town; cloth for
the Indian market has been lately more sought after,
and considerable shipments have been made to that and
other inakets within the last fortnight.—Preston Chro-

nick.
ExmosioN of A BOILER.—On Christmas-da
the boiler at the colliery of R. A. Thickness°, Esq.,
M.P., Platt-bridge, suddenly exploded, and knocked
down the chimney, injured the engine pillars, and did

fireman was the only person on the spot, and he escaped
with a little scalding .—Preston Chronicle.

CALCUTTA MARKET.

Indigo Mart, Writers'-buildings, Nov. 19.
The express vid Bombay, with the mail of the 17th
of October, arrived on the night of the 17th instant,
bringing the painful intelligence of a fresh series of
heavy failures, some of the parties being of high stand-
ing and deeply engaged in the East India trade. The
pressure upon ,the money market continued with aug-
mented severity, and the Bank of England had increased
its rates of discount to 51 per cent. on bills having less
than 15 days to run, 6 per .rent. for those under 30 days,
and 6i per cent. above that date, and had, moreover,
refused to mike the usual advances on Consols.
The melancholy intelligence above referred' to has
thrown the deepest gloom over the commercial commu-
nity of this city, and ca used a total suspension of busi-
ness, which had received a check by she news of the
previous mail, and been interrupted by numerous
holidays. On Saturday the 6th November, the date of
the last Overland Price Current, no business of import-
ance was transacted. and the Bth, 9th,.

CALCUTTA MARKET.

Indigo Mart, Writers"-buildings, Nov. 19.
The express via Bombay, with the mail of the 17th
of October, arrived on the night of the 17th instant,
bringing the painful intelligence of a fresh series of
heavy failures, some of the parties being of high stand-
ing and deeply engaged in the East India trade. The
pressure upon the money market continued with aug-
mented severity, and the Bank of England had increased
its rates of discount to 5/ per cert, on bills having less
than 15 days to run, 6 per cent. for those under 30 days,
and 6/ per cent. above that date, and had, moreover,
refused to make the usual advances on Consols.
i
The melancholy nteingence above referred to has
thrown the deepest gloom over the commercial commu-
nity of this city, and caused a total suspension of busi-
ness, which had received a check by tho news of the
previous mail, and been interrupted by numerous
holidays. On Saturday the 6th November, ber, the date of
the last Overland Price Current, no business ofimport-
ance was transacted. and the Bth, 9th, 11th, 16th and
17th were native holidays. The business done in ex-
ports has, therefore, been very limited. The shock,
however, which credit has sustained will probably induce
remitters to resort to produce as the only secure me-
dium of remittance, which may give rise to greater ac-
tivity in our export market than present circumstances,
or the state of the market at home would warrant. It
will, however, be some time before the mind of the mer-
cantile community, greatly alarmed and disturbed by

A A E.
M One half the world are desolately single, and the other
supposing them married, questionably contented. Diffidence, •r a
sense of right detername the former, and miscalculated hopes em-
bitter the latter. The solitary one may shield himself under the plea
of caution and worldly prudence, and the indissoluble, regret nn-
consprosing harry ; but the troth lies deeper. Physical Incapacity,
and broken health, are the great hindrances to domestic happiness
and social content. The dowry should. not be the only marriage set-
tlement. Honour and justice demand that health should form au item
In the compact; it alone dignifies the alliance. Blighted hopes or
neglect woand more sorely than poverty or misfortune. Reader, if
these surmises concern you, proeure Dr. CULYERWELL'S little
MEMOIRS 'On Single and Married Life," pub. la 2 vols., Is.
each (by post, in stamps, Is. 6d. each). Let n• imaginatively
,esined, sr prudish feeling deter yeti, by their titles, nor be hindered
ey mlslnterpretatior, •f their supposed contents, from obtaining
them. They are not intended certainly for mere idle cariosity, but
for the cloaet perusal of those more deeply interested, to whom
they are offered as antagonistic to the enipyrical trash put forth on
the above subjects, by unqualified authors, which alone or
together, are a disgrace to the age. Furthermore, two other
little publications claim your attention (same price Is. each,
by post Is. 6d.) called " What to Eat, Drink, and
Avoid," and " How to be Happy." They are not merely
pamphlets, but equal in quantity a library volatile, nor are they the
mere ephemeral scribblings of the hoar, but the study of the author's
life, who owes his present existence, health, and position to this ob-
servance of the Maxims he would inculcate—to do ante others as he
would be done unto—to live after nature's laws—and to keep always
on the "satiny side of the way." The above works may bo had of

IMPORTS FROM EUROPE.

British Cotton Piece Goods—The business done has
not been so extensive as might have been anticipated
from the animated re-opening of trade atter the holi-
days this may be ascribed to the interruption of holi-
days before alluded to, and to diminish confidence on
the part of the natives towards the European
community. Towards the close of last week, consider-
able sales were effected. Since the mail came in there
has been a total cessation of all transactions. White
and Gray Shirtings continue in good demand at full
prices. Twills are in moderate inquiry. In Jaconets
we have little alteration to notice. Bleached have been
in fair demand. Grays are not so much wanted, but
holders are firm. The demand for shirtings has in-
fluenced the inquiry for Madapolams, which are also in
demand at better rates. In Mull Mulls there has been
no change. Books ate firm, and the better qualities of
Lappets higher. i.ed Twills are improving, being in-
quired for, and the stock small.
Cotton Twist—Mule Twist—A good deal has been
done in this description of yarn during the last few
days, and large sales are reported at improved prices in
some numbers. In Nos. 30, 40, and 50, and particularly
30, an advance if to 1 pie in former price may be
quoted. The demand is steady and the prospect of the
article improving. We may venture to predict that a
further rise will take place. In Turkey red we have
only one sale to report of No. 30 to 60 at 1-6 rs. per lb.
Woollens are flat.
Metals—Copper—The demand is well maintained,
with an advance of Ba. on tile, whick is quoted at 37r.
Ba. to 38r. Sheathing at 48r. to 50r., old at 40r. 8a,.,
and yellow metal 40r. Spelter—A slight decline has
taken place in this metal, and osr present quotations
are 12r. to 12r. 2a. Iron is very firm for all kinds but
hoop, which has gone back a little. Our quotations are
3r. 14a. to 4r. 2a. for Rnglish flat, square bar and hoop
at sr. Lead—There is little doing, but prices are firm,
our quotations are 7r. 9a. to 7r. 10a. for pig, and 7r. 10a.
7r. 14a. for sheet. Block tin is in fair demand, and sales
are reported at 37r. 4a. to 37r. Ba. per fy. md.
Beer continues to find free vent at 70r. per hhd. for
Alsopp's and Bass. Subjoined is a statement exhibit-
ing the imports for the past three years, by which it
will be observed that a great falling off has taken place
this year :

Salt has improved in price, owing to the paucity of :
arrivals. The sale of a cargo his been reported at 56rs.
for common salt, being an advance of 10 rs. per 100 mds.
on previous rates. Butter is quoted at 86 rs., and stoved
at 88 rs. to 90 rs.

LONDON, MCNDAY, JANUARY 3, 1848

Among the numerous improvements which will be
expected from the Legislature during the new year,
not one is more requisite in an economical sense, and
with a view to the diminution of the national mor-
tality, than those of a sanitary character. Among
the multitude of innovations of this nature, none are.
more absolutely essential for the public welfare than
such as will immediately dissipate the evils arising
from the onerous imposition of a window-tax. In
another column will be found a communication from
a competent medical authority, whose statements
have a peculiar bearing upon this particular.
After describing the compact and ad-
mirable structures erected at Birkenhead, by
the munificence of the Dock Company and by the en-
terprise of private individuals, the writer insists upon
the necessity of removing, or, at the least, of modify-
ing, this impolitic and inj •
urious burden upon the
community. Almost every kind of taxation, however
indirect, would be preferable to so odious and op-
pressive an impost—an impost which tends more than
any other to generate disease and to enhance the
numerous discomforts of the poorer classes.
No sanitary undertaking of a local description has
engaged our sympathies more entirely than that to
which the letter of Dr. MINT= ROBERTSON has
especial reference. At an outlay of nearly 50,0001.
a pile of dwelling-houses has been erected capable of
accommodating three hundred and fifty families of
labouring people connected with the magnificent dock-
yard in the neighbourhood of Birkenhead. Another ,

MONODY.

Come, music-making Pan, from thine Arcadian meads
Come with a cluster of thy deep-toned reeds,
Cull'd on the marge of Radon's limpid stream:
0, bring them hither,—bind them side by side,
And breathe in them thy sweetest, saddest theme!
Methinks it should be that which Echo tigh'd,
Plaining responsively
Thy strains of melody,
When she consenting thus, became thy bride.
Or, let me rather hear the mournful lay
Attuned by thee on that unhappy day,
When Death changed Syrinx to the sweet pipe, the
sings
When Zephyr breathes. or fans it with his wings.
Repeat again that lovelorn dirge to me ;
And I will sing with thee,
A melancholy song for ONE who died,—
Died in the splendour of his manhood's pride,—
Died, undecay'd by Time,—
Died in his prime !
Tell Oberon, Titania, Puck the sprite,
And all the Fays who danced that summer night
Upon the flower-embroider'd green,
Where Theseus wooed his amazonian Queen ;
0110, Bacchus, and his Choir,
Tell great Ap
HE that restrung the Sophoclean lyre
Of egdlpus, and sad Antigone ;
Who beautified the solemn pomp of Athalie :
HE, who re-sung thy Druid's minstrelsy,
To charm the theme of their Walpurgi's night—is dead
Yes; HE who blended his harmonious lays
In Worldless Songs, and Zion's Hymn of Praise
To Great JEriovAu—
Pagan Pan bath fied;—
Ile bath vanish'd, like a vision of the night;
Thus Fable fades in Revelation's light;
Thus Baal's priests on Baal vainly call ;
They and their God before Juitovair fall.
Alas, the Bard who sung these themes is gone !
Ills lyre remains, but vacant is his throne;
Who now can strike its chords like Mendelssohn?
Oh, minstrel of Elijah and St. Paul !
Where shall we find a genius to entwine
Cecilian harmonies profound as thine?
Where is thy mantle? Did'st thou let it fall
Upon that fatal day •
When thou wast snatched away?
Or did's thou only leave behind
The emanations of thy mind ?
Such as we sing this night I,y her command,
Who sways the far-famed sceptre of our land :
Whose presence here,
Attended by the fair, the brave, and great,
Graces these halls of her ancestral state,
To greet the new-born year.
