SHEFFIELD ANTI-CORN-LAW SOCIETY.-
On Wednesday last, the members of this society, which
we have before announced as being in the course of for-
mation, held their first meeting. Mr. Wm. Ibbotsort
was appointed treasurer, and a committee and secretaries
were chosen. The following are among the fundamental
rules of the society :—" We the undersigned, being of
opinion that a society ought to be formed forthwith in
Sheffield, having for its principal object the extension of
knowledge on the subject of the present Corn Laws, with
a view to their ultimate repeal, by the easiest and safest
means, have resolved as follows:—That we now consti-
tute ourselves a society, to be called the Sheffield Anti-
Corn-Law Society :—That every member of the society,
subscribing his name, shall pay to the treasurer one
pound, or more if be thinks proper :—That donations shall
be accepted from persons not willing to become members
of the society." Among the gentlemen who have already
testified their approval of the object of the society, by
becoming members, are Messrs. S. Bailey, John Sorby,
Wm. Butcher, James Sanderssu, Samuel Jackson, Wert.
Vickers, N. Gterves, G. P. Naylor, H. S. Walker,
Conereve and others.—Sheffield Independent.
TREVELYAN.—ThiS is perhaps the best no-
vel that has for a considerable time issued from the pros.
It is from the pen of the author of "Marriage in High
Life," and in every respect displays the power of a superior
mind and practised pen. There is no aim or straining
after novelty, either in its plot, which is simple, person-
ages, who are few, or in its sentiment; but it is tvritten
with the easy spontaneity and the natural vigour of one
whose mind was full of
a most interesting theme. Tre-
velyan' is a tale of the passions, and its object is to displaY,
the working of ail-powerful love in one small circle of
hearts, There is a vigour in the conduct of this narrative
which bespeaks a. inasculine pen, while, in its details, it
displays a delicate anatomy of love and domestic feeling,
which seems to come from a female's nice perception of
such, 'natters. Imbed, the book may remind one stronglY
ofAottte of Miss Edgeworth's. novels—pet baps of bee
Vivian" above others. --Mooring Herald.
The Franl, fort Gazette of the 9th instants
states, that fires broke out in Bretten during the stormY
nights of the Ist and 2d inst., which did considerable
datn,.ge. The Grand Duke happily arrived in town on
the following d ,y, and (lid much to .alleviate the distress
occasioned thereby. Mentz continues to suffer from the
continued storms. Conitnunications with the opposite
bank of the 'thine are interrupted, owing to the damage
done to the bridge.

By the Virginian N,w York
the 23,1 ult. Trie demand for shipment, as noticed in otif
accounts per last p icket, continued active, but at privo'
rather lower. Latterly there had been some inquiry for
home manufacture, but, the most desirable lots having
been bought up, they found some difficulty in stocking
themselves, and holders eons( quently gained some advaw
rage. Since the ativices fiora this port, however, to Nov'
10, business had completely ceased, and a further decline
seemed inevitable. Sales about 1,800 bales the last wevl‘
or so in New York.
