MAGAZINES.--(CONTINUED).

BENTLEY.
The present number opens with the seventeenth
chapter of Maxwell's novel of " Brian O'Linn," and
then we have " The Corso of Naples," a continuation
of those graphic pictures of Neapolitan society, which
have of late appeared in this magazine. This is fol-
lowed by a Latin lyric (which we transcribe) de-
scriptive of the cholera morbus :
CHOLERA MORBUS CLASSICUS.
Magnus ventre dolor,
Nullus in ore color,
Dum languescit vultus ;
Sanguis triste
Dum sine more ruit,
Sudor passim multus.
Cor torpore dolet,
Spiritus asper olet,
Angor torquet dorsum ;
Dentes usque fremunt,
Pallida labra tremunt,
Et detrectant morsum.

Noctes atque dies
Est tibi nulla, quies,
Duram luges sortem ;
Dicit morbus ibi,
Tempus abire tibi,
Nunc arcesso mortem.

The literary retrospect of the departed consists of
some clever sketches of " little great" literary people
of a quarter of a century since. Miss Benger and
Lady Caroline Lamb, and poor Upcott, that most
indefatigable collector of literary curiosities, who, if
his digestion had been equal to his appetite, would
have been a first-rate historian ; and Cuvier, whose
intellect, vast as it is universally acknowledged to have
been, was yet surpassed by his kindness, whose heart
was ever larger than his head, are here sketched from
the life. We see them before us as they walked, and
talked, and moved, and had their being. Then comes
" The Pony Club," a fearful legend of the backwoods
of America—of those regions where the only justice
known is Mr. Justice Lynch ; and after that we have
an amusing account of the adventures of an English
traveller at Pyrmont, before Pyrmont had fallen into
" the seer and yellow leaf." Dr. W. C. Taylor gives
us two papers, one on the sayings and doings of Nasir-
Ed-Din-Khojah, the Turkish Joe Miller, as he calls
him, but rather, as we should say, the Turkish
Hierocles, inasmuch as there is matter for thought in
all his jests, and the other on " The Dissolution of
the Monasteries," an able review of that portion of
the letters of the monarchs of England, recently pub-
lished by Sir H. Ellis, which relates to the reign of
Henry VIII. This paper is illustrated by a well-
engraved portrait of the bluff King Harry,
from the original portrait in St. Bartholomew's Hos-
pital. The Flaneur in Paris continues his amusing
sketches of Parisian life, and Miss Costello, in her
Legendary Towns and Cities, illustrates the topo-
graphy and local history of Gloucester and of Ciren-
cester. A continuation of the paper on " Doncaster,
its Sports and Saturnalia," and a quaintly told legend
of the Folly Tower at Clifton, by Albert Smith,
complete the number of Bentley for the present
month, which contains much amusing light reading.

A TOUR TO AND FROM VENICE. By Louisa

Stuart Costello.

Often as Venice has been written about and painted
on canvass, eulogised in the canzonets of the gondo-
liers, and lauded in the metres of poesy, this beautiful
volume by Miss Costello comes upon us with a pecu-
liar freshness, and fascinates us as though it were the
description of some newly-discovered fairy-land.
Those who have never visited this city of palaces in
the Adriatic, possess, nevertheless, some ideal of its
ap

pearance and .general character. Since the days
when the mysterious Council of Ten ruled its desti-
nies, when the Doge went forth with exceeding pomp
to marry the billows by which his dominions were
surrounded, and when the prisoners of that mercan-
tile principality languished beneath the leads of the
Bridge of Sighs, the vision of this extraordinary city
has elicited the admiration of the people of all other
nations. And beyond its own intrinsic at 1-1-c:ions,
Venice has been invested with a thousand extrinsic
and admirable associations. Bassanio and Shy-
lock, Othello and Desdemona have equally
imparted to it a novel and remarkable in
t .res

Stanfield's pencil has conveyed to the
stranger some adequate impression of its mag-
nificence. The verse of Rogers has afforded some
conception of its pristine glory. The dramas of
Byron have revealed many of the dark( st incidents of
its history. Since Napoleon closed its existence as
an independent sate, thousands have reverted to those
periods of its career in which its wealth and dignity
were predominant throughout a considerable portion
of Europe. That "golden wand of commerce"
which Wa;hington Irving has beautifully portrayed,
as grasped during many years "in the failing hind
of Italy," was virtually the sceptre of the Venetian
Doges; and since the relinquishment of that sceptre,
the power of the sea Cybele has disappeared. When
we recall to our recollection the vigour of its Govern-
ment, the opulence of its citizens, the multitude of its
visitors, the splendour of its beneficent victories; and
the extent to which IN proceedings infleenced even the
most remote kingdoms, we cannot but think that
Lady Morgan selected no very extravagant sobriq let
in christening Venice " the Rome of the ocean ;" and,
remembering 111 these thin,rs, we can ntyer induce
ourselves tq believe that tqq tniiph has already been
written descriptive of its appearance. Much twaddle
we are conscious has been devoted to the subject of
Venice. Many tourists have penned nonsense by the
oliotel pent Venice, 4n4 hot. 40 9iiipy tivin4it

CERTIFICATE.

" In a series of experiments made upon Clark, Mc Niell, and Co.'s
Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta-
blished in economy and the quality of the light. Tested against
argand burners, Nos. 4 (12 holes), and 6 (15 holes), it afforded a
saving of at least 25 per cent., and against three fish-tail burners,
No. 4, 49 per cent. The colour and brilliancy of the flame is supe-
rior to any other burner."

ELECTION OF LORD MAYOR.
(THIS DAY.)
CLOSE OF THE FOURTH DAY'S POLL.
The cause of Alderman Wood, or rather that of the
independence of the Livery of London, progresses as
well as its best wishers could hope for or expect. At
three o'clock to-day the fourth day's poll closed, and
before half-past three the following was declared by the
Sheriff to be the state of the poll:
Mr. Alderman Wood
Sir George Carr01l
Mr. Alderman Hooper
Mr. Alderman Farncomb.
Mr. Alderman Moon 1
We rued not again repeat the statement of yesterday,
that the two last announcements were received with xnuch
laughter.
In the course of the interval, between the closing
of the poll and the announcement of the state
of it., jests among the members of the Livery
were at a premium. Among them wits one,
for which we take some little credit to ourselves :
one of the Livery seeing Mr. Carroll (we presurue the
son of Sir George, on the hustings), exclaimed, "
Mr. Carroll, have you seen The Sun newspapi of
yesterday? because there is something there for you to
mark, learn, and inwardly digest !—(Laughter.)
The state of the poll having been announced,
Mr. Alderman Woon came forward amid tremendous
cheering to address the Livery. It was not his purpose
to detain them for any length of time. The state ei f the
poll demonstrate d the steady progress that was being
made on his behalf, and showed the good feeling that
was entertained on his behalf by the Livery.—c,r-IL ar,
and cheers.) For himself, he returned them his most
sincere thanks for the exertions they had male in his
behalf. He was gratified beyond all measure at tho •way
in which they had supported him.—(Cries of " We ,are
determined to do so.") The contest was peculiarly that
of the Livery, and he was happy to see that a liveliness
had been thrown about their proceedings that day which
had relieved the dull tedium of a slow election.--
(Cheers.) He begged of them not to forget to-morrow
morning, at nine o'clock ; and he was sure he need not,
request of the Livery to continue their exer-
tions, and augment the splendid majority that
appeared that day in his behalf.—(Cheers.) Between
himself and those who were associated with him on the
poll no unkind feeling existed, and he was sure there
never woald—(Cheers)—fur himself he had only to say,
:L. 'tat he should be the last to disturb it.—(Cheers.)
;Ur. ENOLISII (the editor of the Mining Journal, as
lee understood) then came forward to address the
146,17; he was met with considerable confusion, wheu

T"E UNIVERSAL GAS BURNE R.
30 to 50 per Cent. saved !
To be had at the Patentees, 60, St. Martin's-lane, Charing,-cross.
The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following acts,
rune advantages resulting from the invention are various and
striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to 50 per cent„ the corn-
bustien is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light
hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and bunts
steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects
or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have
made to the introduction of gas In dwelling-houses, to the expense of
fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, Sze.;
these are entirely obviated by the "PATENT UNIVERSAL Gas
IluaNza." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com-
monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for
club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and publie buildings. One of the
small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum
immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of
ivaste or trouble.
The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing
every other known light, aro shown by the annexed authentic
opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL GAS BURNER.
Extract from tile Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers,
Tuesday, 26th May, 1546, Sir Jourt RENNIE, Preildant, in the Chair.
".A gas burner of a navel and ingenious construction was exhibited.
The principal novelty was the introduction of a stream of air t• the
centre of the flame by a hollow button in the middle of the burner.
rho air passing up through the hollow stem of the button, was
hea: ed, and passed out by two series of fire-holes around the periphery,
and i:npinging with force on the flame of the gas curved it outwards
in the shape of a tulip, while the oxygen of the air, mingling with
the carburetted hydrogen gas, produced a very p:rfect combustion,
The flame was quite white down the top of the burner, was very steady,
as was amply demonstrated by the excellent light of the Institution,
where these burners have been used. In comparing the consumption
of these burners with that of the concentric ring burners, and trying
the power of the two lights by the photometer, the new burner gave a
better light, with a saving of rather more than one-third."

insured survive the declaration of the bonus, the policy may he al-
lowed to lapse, and the Company will renounce all claim for the half
premiums which may be due thereon ; or in the event of the party
being at that time in bad health, the policy can be kept up by com-
mencing to pay the full premium of the age as when first accepted.
The above plan, originating with this Company, was found peculiarly
advantageous at the last Equitable division in 1841, when it was
largely adopted, and many of the policies then effected are still in
force, and large bonuses have been added to them on the scale of the
following table :

rob me." The prosecutor, who was intoxicated, was
bleeding profusely from the face, and the prisoner had
also evidently been drinking, but pretended to be worse
for liquor than ho really was. On searching the pri-
soner at the station•house he found upon his person,
with some other things, a " sham" catch, which he then
produced. He also found, where the prosecutor had
been knocked down, a watch key belonging to Mr.
Calton, and which had been torn away from the watch-
guard chain. This witness added that the prosecutor
was to severely cut and bruised that it was found neces-
sary to send for a surgeon to attend him at the station-
house.

Charles Burgess Goff, a police-sergeant, 9 L, said he
was present at the Surrey Assizes, Kingston, in March,
1845, and heard the prisoner convicted of stealing a
copper, and sentenced to twelve months' imprisonment.
The prisoner had also been frequently in custody for
other charges, and when the present case was dis-
posed of, he (Sergeant Goff) should request his wor-
ship to order his being brought up on a future day, as
he had no doubt, from information which had reached
him, that he was concerned in a daring burglary a few
nights ago, and of being able to establish that charge
against him.
The prisoner, in reply to the charge of assault and
attempted robbery, said he did not intend to rob the pro-
secutor, and that he should not have assaulted him had
he not been drinking,
He was fully committed on the charge, but ordered
to be brought up again on that day week to meet the
charge of burglary.

AMEitICAN AFFAIRS.

NEW YORK, SEPT. 15.—Since the date of my last
letter, very little change in the affairs of the United
states has taken place. The Government have, it is
thought, discovered that the war with Mexico was as
unnecessary as it is extravagant and unprofitable ; butif
the Government have not made this discovery, the Ame-
rican people have.
Everything in relation to business is in a state of un-
certainty; all present importations are made on a falling
market, while the season for commercial operations is
rapidly gliding away. Among the importers of dry
goods, the month of September is presumed to decide, in
some measure, the character of the season for business.
It is in this month that our jobbers generally make their
largest purchases. This is a class of dealers between the
importer and the country merchant. If any opinion is
to be formed of the business of the season by the pur-
chases they have made, that opinion will be unfavour-
able. Their purchases have been cautious and limited,
principally at auction.

- The auction sales of domestic manufactures, when
compared with foreign fabrics, have been large. Under
the influence of the new tariff, the manufacturers, in
most cases, appear to be panic-stricken, and are empty-
ing their warehouses, and sending the contents to public
auction. In most cases sales are effected at a very great
loss compared to the selling prices previous to the pas-
sage of the new tariff. Whet r, by reducing the iTrive
of the raw matertl and the wages of the It tourer: &c.,
tilt; ;mil obtain enough by these auctions to replace their
old stock is the great question. If they can they will
be satisfied to run their manufactories for a year or two
without the expectation or hope of obtaining one cent
of profit, but in the full belief that the next Congress
will repeal the present tariff law.

On the subject of repeal, everything depends on the
political character of the next congressional House of
Representatives. The present House have to serve
another short session, from December, 1846, to March
1847. If the manufacturing party should have a firm
and decided majority in the next House, favourable to a
repeal of the present tariff law, I do not think that the
Senate would defeat the Repeal Bill, and I am sure that
the President has had puite as much to a° with vetoes as
he wishes. Such are my views in relation to a con.
tinuance of the tariff. But whether we shall Wr itiaji not
