vice, it will be impossible for any one to
possession of the most patriotic sentirnkfti; to
believe that he has been actuated by any tither than-
the most generous motions. We all know<perfectlYTS
well that the Prince de Joinville wrote ma,vA9 #
truths in his pamphlet, as well as many ea. • irtaSAiaV
notions, and many expressions that might be readily
contorted into mere bombast and braggadocio. We
all know, moreover, that the science of naval tactics
has been marvellously changed by the adoption of
steam-power in our armed vessels. Those alterations
and those home-truths necessitate a corresponding
activity in the service; an activity ambitious of keep-
ing pace with the advancing spirit of the age, and of
not being bafll-1 by the encroachments of science.
Although we are confident, therefore, of the con-
tinued vigour of our navy, and of the valour and
efficiency of our seamen, we must, nevertheless, ob-
serve that there are many suggestions contained in the
present brochure deserving the serious consideration
of the Right Hon. the Lords of the Admiralty.

FINE ARTS.
TRE CHRISTIAN IN PALESTINE.
Part VII.
This most attractive serial is continued with una-
bating excellence. 'We are doubtful whether we
should more admire the learned and interesting letter-
press, penned by Dr. Stebbing, or the brilliant and
picturesque illustrations copied from the original
sketches by W. H. Bartlett. " Mount Thabor, look-
ing towards Gilboa and the Jordan," is a delicious
composition. From the quaint and characteristic
cluster of Arabs and goats in the foreground, the lat-
ter dipping their long beards in the pool ; from the
cool umbrage of the half-distance, to the remote
mountain and horizon bathed in sunlight, everything
imparts an additional beauty to a scene which, from
its mere undulations and its manifold associations,
would have been strangely interesting. The other
engravings are of almost equal purity.

HE ILLUSTRATED LONDON ALMA-

This Almanack is submitted to the public by the Proprietors, with
confidence of its superiority over its predecessors.
The work was commenced in 1845, with a view of furnishing a
Repository of Useful Knowledge of permanent value, for constant re-
ference in Astronomy, Astronomical Occurrences, and the Natural
History of the Year•
The Astronomical Department has been placed entirely under the
superintendence of J. Glaisher, Esq., of the Royal Observatory at
Greenwich.

On the third page of each month is a series of tableaux of memo-
rable events, carrying out in a true spirit what is usually and pro•
perly introduced into our Almanack ; not for occasional reference
only, but to cherish respect for these landmarks of British History.
The fourth page of each month is devoted to Natural History. The
whole of this portion is from the very able pen of Mrs. Loudon ; and
the interesting series of illustrations to this department has been
drawn and engraved by Miss Loudon, under the immediate superin-
tendence of Mrs. Loudon.

SUICIDE OF A CIIILD.—An inquiry took place
before William Carter, Esq., at the Battle of the Nile,
Albion-street, Rotherhithe, as to the death of Elizabeth
Dudley, aged 14, who committed suicide under the fol-
lowing circumstances :—From the testimony of the
mother and, father of the deceased, who reside in Cla-
rence-place, Clarence-street, Rotherhithe, it appeared
that the latter is foreman at an engineer's in Bother-
hithe, and that the child was in the habit of taking his
breakfast to him. On her return on Saturday morning
her mother taxed her with having loitered, the deceased
made some reply, when her mother gave her a pat on
the head. Some time after the deceased could not be
found, and one of the sisters searched the house, and at
last found her suspended by a handkerchief to the bed-
stead. She was taken down, but life was quite extinct.
In answer to questions put by the Coroner, it was said
that the deceased was of a very cheerful disposition and
highly moral conduct. The jury returned a verdict of
" Temporary insanity."
MunDEn IN CINCINNATI.—Edward Byington, Esc.,
was cut to pieces by a Mr.lChurch with a bowie knife in
the street, on the 27th ult., in consequence of Byington
accidentally running against him. Great excitement
prevailed in Cincinnati at the melancholy result.—Arne•

FOR ONE MONTH ONLY.

M. JITLLIEN has great regret in announcing that he is impera-
tively called upon to terminate this Series of Concerts at a period so
unusually early, but the new Proprietors of the Theatre having stipu-
lated for possession of the premises on Tuesday, December Ist, in
order to commence the demolition and rebuilding of the interior, for
their grand Italian Opera, M. JULLIEN has no alternative. Tke
last Concert will, therefore, most positively take place on
SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 28TH.
Notwithstanding, however, the shortness of the Season, M.
JULLIEN has determined to present to his patrons every possible
attraction, and has made such arrangements as will afford them
Four Weeks of Unrivalled Musical Entertainment. During the recess
he has composed a new Grand Descriptive Military Quadrille, to be
entitled.
" THE BRITISH ARMY QUADRILLE,"
and intended as a companion to " The British Navy," which was
last winter honoured with such distinguished approbation.
In order to render complete the Grand and Novel Effects intro-
duced in this Piece of Music, M. JULLIEN has (by the kind conde-
scension of the Military Authorities) succeeded in engaging, (entirely
in addition to his own complete and numerous Orchestra),
FOUR DISTINCT MILITARY BANDS,
viz.

The Band of HER 3f A.JESTY'ind LIFE GUARDS, under the
direction of Mr. WAETZIG (by the kind permission of COLONr.L
WILLIAMS) ;
The Band of HER MAJESTY'S ROYAL HORSE GUARDS, BLUE,
under the direction of Mr. TUTTON (by the kind permission of
COLONEL SMITH) ;
The Band of HER MAJESTY'S GRENADIER GUARDS, under
the direction of Mr. SCHOTT (by the kind permission of COLONEL
HOME) ; and
The Band of HER MAJESTY'S COLDSTREAM GUARDS, under
the direction of Mr. GODFREY (by the kind permission of COLONEL
SHAWE).
These Four Grand Military Bands will, during the progress of the
Quadrille, be combined with the Concert Orchestra, and form a
Musical Ensemble at once novel and extraordinary.

Madrid papers of the !,..)oth have been received.

It was said that the Queen of PORTUGAL had
applied to Spain for assistance, and that at the re-
commendation of the French Ambassador, an armed
intervention in the affairs of Portugal had been de-
termined on. Orders had been dispatched to the
captains-general of Andalusia, Salamanca, and Ga-
licia, to march troops to the Portuguese frontier.
The Diario of Lisbon, of the 14th, states that
Viscount t'OLIVEIRA, Minister of Vinance, having
given in his resignation, M. Dz Souza-Azuvkiso has
been appointed in his place. The Diario announces
that the news received by the Government from Cas-
tello Branco, Abrantes, Serpa, Deja, and Estremoz
is satisfactory. The population. and the troops, it
was said, had everywhere submitted without resist-
ance to the QcEtN's orders. "It is to be believed,"
adds the Diario, " that her MAJESTY'S orders will
have equally been observed in the northern pro-
vinces, intelligence from which is every moment ex-
pected."
The belief thus confidently expressed by the Diario
is, however, unfounded, for all communications be-
tween Lisbon and Oporto and Coimbra have been cut
off for some days, in consequence of the destruction
of the telegraph by the insurgents.

LITERATURE.

GERMAN IN ONE VOLUME. By Fakk Lebahn.
Several very excellent works have already appeared
introductory to the German language; nevertheless,
we can distinctly assert that the present volume ap-
pears to us to surpass every one of its predecessors.
Before we had leisure to examine the arrangement of
the different elementary principles comprised in the
pages of this grammatical compilation, we were per-
suaded that its publication must be almost superfluous,
and we were persuaded that it must be superfluous
frcim a recollection of the inimitable introduction to
" a theoretical and practical knowledge of the Ger-
man language," written several years since by T. S.
Reisender. So fully were we convinced of the advan-
tages of the system adopted by Herr Reisender, that
_we could scarcely conceive to ourselves the necessity
for anything more simple, mere perspicuous, :or more
symmetrical in the shape of a German grammar.
We have carefully examined the volume just issued
by Lebahn, and we confess that we were alto-
gether mistaken in our anticipations. Numerous
and admirable as are the works of this description,
which have from time to time come under our obser-
vation, we do not remember any one that has afforded
us equal satisfaction with that given by the present.
There is a novelty about its classification of a very
striking character; the parts of speech are placed in
the happiest order; and the arbitrary rules illustrated
with the most appropriate examples. Besides this,
the volume has these additional attractions : it is fur-
nished with a vocabulary of 4,500 words, synonymous
in German and English; it contains a translation of
the opening chapters of " Rasselas" and "The Vicar
of Wakefield," and the entire of Fouque's beautiful
tale of " Undine." As a pioneer to the conquest of a
glorious literature, we consider this volume to be
without any competitor.

THE PAST AND FUTURE OF THE B!?.
A'AVY. By Me Hon. E. Plunkett.
Any book with such a title-page cannot fail to
arouse the interest, and to excite the curiosity of
even the least patriotic among Englishmen. And
when, on a perusal, it is found to contain so much
that is candid, honest, sagacious, and startling, and
that it proceeds from the pen of an observant Com-
mander in the Royal Navy, it will inevitably illicit
commendation. Captain Plunkett is wholly precau-
tionary in the nature of his present production ; he
conceives that there is an intense necessity for active
and energetic improvements in the glorious service
of which he is a member, and, solicitous alike for the
safety of his country, the glory of the navy, and the
maintenance of our naval supremacy, he has braved
all the perils of authorship, and boldly launched his
present work upon the dark and mysterious ocean of eri-
ticilm. However much individuals may differ from the
writer, in his estimate of what is requisite in the way
of the modification and advancement of the sea-ser-

AMBERGATE, NOTTINGHAM, and BOS-
TON, and EASTERN JUNCTION RAILWAY COMPANY.
The Directors juf the above Company regret to state that for un-
mistakeable purposes, rumours are industriously circulated, and
paragraphs have been inserted in different papers, all tending to mis-
lead the public, and to produce speculation in these shares; they,
therefore, feel it is a duty they owe to the shareholders of the
line, and to the public at large, to declare that there
is no ground for the reports alluded to, other than that an offer of
purchase was made by the Eastern Counties to the Ambergate Com-
pany, and which, due regard being had to the integrity of the line, it
was not deemed prudent to accept. An arrangement was, however,
made for the two " Boards" to meet this day at the Shoreditch station,
and propositions were there submitted by the Ambergate to the
Eastern Counties, which the former regret to say the latter have
refused to entertain. The Directors of the Ambergate Company
doubt not that its Shareholders will give them eredit for being ac-
tuated only by the sole desire of promoting the new interests of the
Proprietors, and of maintaing the line "in tact ;" this they are re-
solved to do, and they feel certain that if it be made without re-
ference to sale or lease with any other company, twelve months will
not elapse before it will command such a position in the market as
will justify them in refusing the terms which were offered.
In conclusion the Directors beg to assure the Shareholders that
one " call " ohly will be made during the whole of next year, and
yet that pa: t of the line between Nottingham and Grantham will,
within that time, be completed, while the remaining portions will
be advanced as much as possible.

THE MURDER OF MR. LYNCH.

The inquest on the body of the unfortunate Mr.
Lynch, of Clonkeely, has been continued at Tuam, from
day to day, during the last week, before the coroner and
a most painstaking and intelligent jury. All the cir-
cumstances connected with this bloody tragedy have
been, or will be, thoroughly investigated, and though the
evidence had not closed at the time of the dispatch of
our active correspondent's letter, yesterday evening,
sufficient has transpired to warrant the authorities in
ordering the apprehension of five individuals, upon
whom there rests something more than suspicion.—
Galway Mercury.

PROVISION RIOTS IN TIPPERARY.—MURDER.
• The following communication has been addressed to
the Dublin Evening Post :
"CAIIER, DEc. 20.—This country is in a frightful
state—robberies of all descriptions, flour in particular,
notwithstanding the protection of police escorts. As I
write this, a company of soldiers has been called out of
the barracks here to protect a quantity of flour on its
way from Clonmel to Limerick and Tipperary. Last
evening about ono hundred and fifty cars laden with
flour, the property of several persons, accompanied by
police, on the way to Tipperary, had only gone half a
mile outside this town when the drivers were obliged to
return back, the road being blockaded by armed men
and women with other weapons, and determined to take
the flour at risk of life. I cannot enumerate or describe
the quantity of robberies and the appalling distress of
the people.

STATE OF TRADE.

MANCHESTER, DEC. 22.—The recent decline in the
cotton market, and the close approach of the Christmas
holidays, have combined to limit the demand for goods
and yarn, and to depress prices. Many spinners and
manufacturers, indeed, still refuse to name prices ; but,
in the few instances in which business has been done,
slight ~,recessions have been made from the rates of last
Tuesday, both in goods and yarn. We understand that
most of the mills in this district will stop for about ten
days at the close of the current week.
ROCHDALE, DEC. 21.—There has been another dull
market to-day, and the demand for prices has been very
limited. In the wool market there has been very little
doing ; the dealers are asking higher prices, and, in
some instances, have obtained a small advance.
HALIFAX, DEC. 19.—We cannot report more favour-
ably of the business done in the hall. The advance in
long wools, not being followed by any advance in the
price of goods, has tended to check even the limited de •
mand that there was, and everything is exceedingly dull.
The early and severe frost has put a stop to the demand
for yarns for the continent, and scarcely any orders are
being given out. The spinners having liberally supplied
themselves with wool, little is now changing hands; and
there is no disposition to advance upon the old rates.
Short wools are rather harder to buy, but the quantity
sold is not large.
HUDDERSFIELD, DEC. 22.—A few sales have taken
place to buyers who have visited us to-day to purchase
job-lots ; and the manufacturers of cashmerets and ens-
sinets, during the last two or three weeks, have been
fully employed. German wools have met with ready
sale, but there is little doing in colonial.
LEEDS, DEC. 22.—There was little doing in our cloth-
halls to-day. The last few markets of the year usually
are dull and neglected, the merchants being unwilling to
increase their stocks when the period for balancing their
books is so near.—lllanchester Guardian.

Ross and Sons being fully determined not to be
" punched " down, even by that inimitable merry an-
drew, or " merry angry," Mr. Parch, beg to inform the
public that they intend killing an enormous bear on
Monday, the 21st inst., and exhibiting it on that and the
three following days, at their establishment, when any
one preferring it can have the fat cut direct from the
animal, thus ensuring its genuineness. For preserving
and strengthening the hair there is nothing equal to the
genuine bears grease—. vide " Mr. Catlin 's account of

"DREADFUL MURDER.

" FOUR o'CLocx. —A man residing in the neighbour-
hood of Tipperary was barbarously robbed and murdered
on Friday night. I saw the murdered man yesterday
morning."

The Tipperary Constitution has the following:—

" PLUNDER OF PROVISIONS.—On Thusday, three at-
tacks on four flour carts were simultaneously made on the
Caher, Marlfleld, and Old Cashel roads, and the provi-
sion with which they were loaded taken away by large
mobs. In consequence of the number of applications
made by parties requiring escorts, to protect their lives
and properties, the magistrates, in order to lessen the
harassing duties of the military and police, have deter
mined that the following arrangements shall in no case
be deviated from. Escorts of military and police will
proceed from the police barracks, Irishtown, on the
mornings of Tuesdays and Saturdays, for Caher, at ten,
♦.K.; Mondays and Thursdays, for Clogheen, at ten,
A.M.; Wednesdays and Fridays, for Cashel, at eleven,
AM. And that any cart which, from the badness of tbs
horse, tackling, &c., causes unnecessary delay on the
road, will be left behind. There are daily and nightly
patrols of both military and police on the several roads
in the vicinity of this town. The aspect of the times is
indeed anything but cheering; the accounts from all
parts of the country are of the most alarming descrip-
tion."

The Evening Post has the following regarding the
state of Mayo:—
"DEATH FROM STARVATION.—We have seen a letter
addressed to one of the trustees of the India Poor Relief
I Fund, dated Castlebar, December 19, in which the
writer narrates the appalling fact that thirty-one persons
have died from starvation in Castlebar and the adjoining
districts during the last two months."
The Cork Reporter of Saturday contains several letters
from correspondents, fully corroborating the previous
accounts as to the extreme destitution of the people in
Skibbereen; Dr. Donovan says:--
" Distress is fearfully increasing—disease spreading
rapidly—employment getting scarce, and provisions be-
coming intolerably dear."
COUNTY OF KERRY.—CAIIIRCIVEEN.--SiRCe the date
of my last, a steamer arrived at our quays, laden with
Indian meal for the tenantry of Daniel O'Connell. It
is altogether untrue that Mr. O'Connell's tenantry were
concerned in what has been called an attack upon the
Government stores, as the inquiry about to be held on I
Saturday will show.

LEITRIM.—DEATH FROM ►STARVATION.—A poor la
bourers was found near Clonee with a bag of meal under
his arm. lie was employed at the public works, and
was going home with his scanty store after receiving his
payment, when he dropped never to rise. This is another
case of death by starvation.—.l3edlinasioe Star.
COUNTY OF GALWAY.—ANOTIIER VICTIM TO STAR-
VATION !-It has been reported to us within the last
week another unfortunate man has died of starvation in
the neighbourqood of Spiddle.—lbid.
