NEW YEARS EVE, AND NEW YEAR'S DAY.-

If Christmas Day has its plum puddings, New-Year's Eve
has also its wassail bowl, and New-Year's Day its gifts of
affectionate remembrance. The wassail bowl has been the
recognised companion of New-Year's Eve from time imme-
morial. The custom was anciently observed with peculiar
ceremonies, and some singular accompaniments, On New-
Year's Eve the young women went about from door to door
with a wassail bowl of spiced ale, singing at each threshhold
a set of verses descriptive of the time and occasion. This
part of the custom has long passed into disuse, but the bowl
itself--the rich, the merry, the delicious bowl—is still
mixed as in days of old ; and if the hands of our fair and
gentle maidens do not now bear the welcome beverage from
door to door, yet their lips do still consecrate it as it passes
round the family board, making all its sweetness yet sweeter
still. Lest there be one who may attempt to take refuge
in his ignorance, and neglect the time-hallowed observance,
we remind him that ale, or wine if ha be a rich man, with
nutmeg, sugar, toast, and roasted apples, make up the
rich repast., And truly a luscious " meaty-drinky" compo-
sition it is ; and one much loved by all who have preten-
sions to taste or feeling. All our best poets have loved it
and sung its praise ; giving it many endearing names. And
Ben Jonson actually personifies it thus :—" Enter Wassel,
like a neat semster. and songster, her page bearing a bowl,
it is natural that poets should have loved it, for they saw
something good in all the antique customs thus consecrated
to social customs by our ancestors : and their imaginations
led them to look from the bowl itself to the happy faces that
partook of it ; and from those happy faces they caught an
expression of quiet gladness that seemed to say—.' These
customs are good, because they bring friends and kindred
together, and teach them, at this solemn season, when
another year is about to pass away for ever, to renew in
that which is to come the love and friendships they have
felt during the past.'" It is by the influence of some such
feelings as these that poets learned to love the wassail
bowl ; and, although no poets, we may follow some part of
the example they have set us. If we cannot sing of it, we
can partake of it to all our friends, and wish a joyous family
meeting over a brimming wassail bowl on New-Year's Eve,
and a prosperous and happy New Year l—Cheltenhant
chronicle.

FURIOUS DRIVING,—On Tuesday morning about
seven o'clock, as Martin Mack, r. y oung man employed as
lamplighter by the Imperial Gas Company, was crossing the
New-road, near Charlton-street, be was knocked down by a
cab, which came along at a furious rate, and the wheel
passed over his body. The poor fellow was directly lifted
up, when he faintly exclaimed—" 0 God, I'm a dying
man !" He was then placed in a coach and conveyed to
the North London Hospital, where, from the severe in-
ternal injury he bad received, be expired on the same el e-
nince. The driver of the cab, whose number is not known,
galloped off and got away.

The Proprietors having been for the last four years under
the necessity of reprinting, at a very great cost, the early numbers
for each year, earnestly request that all persons intending to take
in this Journal will give orders to their respective booksellers and
newsmen as early aspossible, that the Proprietors may be enabled
to regulate the numbers to be printed by the demand.
(Extract from Address in Athenaeum of 26th December. )
" In 1831 we reduced the price from Bd. to 4d 5O per cent.
This year we have given 19 double numbers, more than 18 per cent.
So that to speak only of the past, the reader of 1835 has received
for little more than TWO-PENCE an Athenaeum equal to that
for which in 1830 he paid EIGHT-PENCE ! And by enlarging
the printed sheet both in depth and width, we now propose to ADD
13 PER CENT to the contents of the Journal."

CONSTITUTIONAL MAGAZINE.

There is an ingeniously reasoned article in this
Number, entitled, " On the Genius of Sir W. Scott,"
which has, besides, the rare merit of bringing some-
thing like novelty to a hacknied, and one would sup-
pose, almost exhausted subject. The sketch of the
unrivalled novelist's early years is given with much
ability. The " Prevalence of Bachelorism in the dif-
ferent Classes of Society," is a light, amusing paper,
showing here and there indications of a lively fancy ;
but when the writer attempts to reason, he is as much
out of his element, as the bear in the boat, of which
Gay writes so gracefully. Mr. E. H. Barker, a well-
known, industrious gleaner in the wide fields of
classical literature, contributes some " Specimens of
Writ and Wisdom"—and we prefer the wisdom to the
wit, for the one is genuine, and the other spurious—
from the old writers. " The Young Surgeon "is a
pleasantly told tale ; which, we perceive, is to be con-
tinued_a great defect—for all magazine tales, to be
effective, should be completed in one Number.

The main recommendation of this work—though
wei deny not the practical utility of its scientific arti-

The present Part consists exclusively of these neatly
finished pictorial designs. The editor of the work is

THE ANALYST.

By far the best and most readable article in the
present Number of this quarterly periodical, is the
" Essay on Bishop Burnet's History of his own
Times," a history which Johnson has honoured with

his special commendation. The writer, we see, speaks
in terms of praise of the Rev. Prelate's character of
King William ; it certainly is justly and vividly pour-
trayed ; but when compared with De Foe's portrait, of
the same remarkable person, sinks into insignificance.
The remaining articles arc, for the most part, devoted
to scientific matters, with which considerable pains
have been taken ; indeed, as a record of the scientific
proceedings of the Quarter, we know of no periodical
more interesting, and more ,to be relied on, than " The
Analyst."

COUNTY OF MIDDLESEX.

The Revising Barristers held their Court yesterday at
Westminster.

Mr, COVENTRY said in the list of the Mile-end Old-
town there are two trustees of a leasehold chapel objected
to, and it is admitted that the building, if occupied, would
give a vote for the Tower Hamlets ; but it is objected that
in its present state it is incapable of conferring the borough
franchise on any one, and that therefore it does not fall
within the 25th section. On the whole he thought these
Gentlemen were not entitled to a county vote, and, as
such, their names which he had already struck out, could
not be restored.

Twelve shareholders in the Gas Works, in the Horse-
ferry-road, were objected to—eight by the Tories, and four
by the Liberals. The votes were disallowed.

Richard Clark claimed to vote " on account of an annual
rental of 151. as awarded by Commissioners under an Act
of Parliament granted to the Dean and Chapter, for tak-
ing down freehold houses belonging to lay clerks or singing
men, and others, belonging to Westminster Abbey in the
year 1777:'
The BARRISTER was of opinion, that the singing men
had no claim on the site of houses, and no right to have
their names in the register.
Mr. H. L. Bulwer attended before Mr. COVENTRY, in
consequence of his name having been expunged from the
list in the city, on the day previous.

Mr. Bulwer said he claimed on account of a freehold
house in St. George's Court, in the parish of St. George in
the East. It was formerly held by a person named
George Phillips Beavan, whose name had remained in the
list, although he (Mr. Bulwer) had had possession of the
property since 1832.
Mr. COVENTRY therefore restored Mr. Bulwer's name
to the list.

At the close of the day the following is reported to be the
result of the objections :-7-

ST. PAUL COVENT-GARDEN.—Tory objections, 2P ; sus-
tained, 25.—Liberal objections, 3 ; sustained, 0.
ST. CLEMENT DANES.—Tory objections, 12 ; sustained, 6.

BRITISH FARMER'S MAGAZINE.

As a purely practical periodical, seldom venturing on
theories, this Magazine is well worth the notice of agri-
culturists. One essay, in particular, on " the Effects
of Drought onVegetation" is full of sound, unvarnished
sense, though it would have told with more effect,
had it
made its appearance some two or three months
when drought formed the rule, and rain the ex-
ception, in the constitution of our atmosphere. Front-
ing the table of contents, is a curious print of a
Brahmin Bull, which, it seems, is in the possession of
the Earl of Harborough.

LADIES' MAGAZINE.

There is a very graceful coloured print in this Num-
ber, of the celebrated Duchess of Maine, grand-
daughter to the great Conde, who is remarkable for
having been the most beautiful woman of her age, but
who is here represented with two black warts on her
face, and one• on her breast—two peculiarities which,
we should imagine, must not a little have detracted
from the effect of her charms. But perhaps warts
were fashionable in the seventeenth century. The
figure of the Duchess is full of symmetry, and the
richly, but not tawdrily, coloured drapery has a very
ple'asing effect. Of the various articles contained in
the literary department of the Magazine, the best is
the one entitled "'Adventures of my Great-great-
Grand-father."

THE REGISTriATION.-(TxUS

CITY OF LOIWON.
(Before Mr. TAMLYIsI.)
(Colltilited from The Sun of yesterday
ST. MART ASCHURCII,

The COURT sat at half-past nine o'clnek.
In this list there were seven objections taken by gr..
Gioodeve, one of which (Edward Compton) was disallowed.
Tire question for consideration was, whether a rate Was
valid rtbkli had been regularly made and signed, but not
published.
After hearing the arguments of Mr. Goodeve against the
validity of the rate, and Mr. Trott in supporter 'I.
Mr. TAMLYN deferred giving judgment
morning next.

Tuesday

ST. MARTIN, VINTRY.
There were four claims in this list, none of which could
be sustained, the parties not having been rated for the pc-
riod required by the Act.

ST. MARTIN OUTWICH.
The objections of Mr. Goodeve to Charles Hough
claim, claim, was disallowed.
An objection was taken by Mr. Goodeve to another
claim--that of Mr. Day, on the ground that the premises
had been pulled down and rebuilt, and the claimant could
not therefore be said to have resided there, or to have paid

all rates.
Mr. TAMLYN was of opinion that the claim was good,
inasmuch as the lease of the house still continued in theg
claimant's possession. He should, however, postpone bi
final decision until he had looked into some authorities 001
the subject.
There are two or three other cases in the parish of a
milar nature, which stand over for the decision of the Court.

(Before Mr. CRAIG.)
The Court sat at half-past nine o'clock.
Mr. CRAIG said he would be prepared to give judgmolt
on Monday morning in all those cases in which the ques'
sion was that of occupation, and which stood over for that

purpose.
Mr. Rogers—Will the case of Mr. Knowles be
eluded.
Mr. CRAIG said before he gave his judgment in that case,
be would like to have a case of a similar kind argued be-
fore him ; and as many such cases were likely to arise lo
would take them before deciding the case of Mr. Knoivles•
Mr. Rogers had seen it advertized that the Barristers
would sit in Westminster on Monday, and he wished to
know whether such was the fact.
Mr. CRAIG such a notice had appeared in the newsPa;
pets, but how it came there he did not know—it did n°
emanate from either him or his colleague.

T. BRIDE'S, FLEET-STREET.
In this parish there were seven new claimants, all 0e
whom were objected ti; by the Tory agents. As none '
them appeared in support of their claims, on the apPlier
tion of Mr. Rogers, all of them were disallowed.
It appeared, during the discussioo, that in this parish an
the houses were rated at. as near half of the value as possible.
Mr. CRAIG said, if Mr. Rowcroft's argument of a fevi,
days ago were good, that of disfranchising all who were a°''
rated at near the rack-rent or full value, the whole of Of,
parishl of St. Bride, Fleet-street, would be disfranchiskt
None knew better the effect of such a suggestion than
b"
gentleman who threw it out.

LONDON,
SATURDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 3, 1835.

Our readers will be delighted with a letter which
appears in another column, from the Duke of SUSSEX
to the Under-Sheriffs of London and Middlesex.
The inauguration of the new Sheriffs, one of whom,
Mr. SALOMONS, is the first Gentleman professing the
Jewish religion ever admitted to civic honours, fur-
nished the friends of religious liberty with an appro-
priate opportunity of testifying their respect for the
character of his Royal Highness, and their sense of
his great services in the cause of truth and freedom.
To the honour of the Duke of SUSSEX be it spoken,
that since his first entrance into public life to the pre-
sent hour, he has been the strenuous and consistent
advocate of all measures, which have had for their ob-
ject to extend the bounds of human improvement and
happiness, by the diffusion of knowledge, and the re-
moval of those fetters which the bigotry of an ignorant
and semi-barbarous age had imposed upon the con-
science. In advancing this noblest of ends, he has spared
no exertion. He has been ever at his post, whether
to defend the great principles of civil and religious
liberty in his place in Parliament, or to encourage, by
his presence and example, those schemes of privaL:
benevolence which were calculated to promote th
the happiness of his fellow creatures. What a striking
contrast does the Duke of SUSSEX form in this re-
spect—in all respects we hope—to another branch
of the Royal Family, whom it is unnecessary for us
to name ; but who glories in being looked up to as the
head of a faction, which is opposed not only to
every amelioration of our institutions, and to every
tt4forrn of abuses, but to every thing which has the
jxiiilith tendency to advance the interests of the people.
The following allusion which his Royal Highness
makes to the political course which be has pursued, is
no less remarkable for its modesty, than for the neat-

DUBLIN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE.

We are glad to learn that this work is successful,
for it is thoroughly national in its character, and in
some of its numerous papers displays marks of very
considerable eloquence and feeling—though the elo-
quence is apt, now and then, to degenerate into bom-
bast. This, however, is a fault which we cannot with
any justice, allege against the " Chapters of Col-
lege Romance," which are records of natural feelings
expressed in a natural manner. Perhaps, had it been
a little shorter than it is, it would have been improved.
In the Review of the " Anthologia Germanica," there
are some clever translations from the poems of Matthi-
son and Salis. The " Close of the Session" is a
spirited article, but too much marked by inveterate
Orangeism.

tion, which, though a very natural consequence of the
treaty of the quadruple alliance, was by some regarded as
offensive. In the execution of this. important business he
had for his auxiliary this very Senor Mendizabel, who will
always reckon it one of his titles of glory to have had a
share in so patriotic an undertaking. This being effected
.to the satisfaction of the Government of her Majesty, and
possessing, as Senor Alava does, family relations and great
influence in that part of the country where the English
auxiliary corps was to land, he accompanied its chief, Ge-
neral Evans, to Spain. We believe we should be doing in-
justice to the feelings of honour and patriotism of Senor
Alava, were we to eulogize his disinterestedness_in refus-
ing any reward or pecuniary consideration for the many
toils he has undergone in the service of his country, at
an advanced period of life, and with a qonstitution far from
being robust.

Well, then, can it be possible that without the possession
of the same convielions, the same political principles, the
same interest in the legitimate throne of Isabel 11., and for
the liberties of their country, Senors Alava and Mendizabel
would have laboured so much in concert in relation to the
important subject of the armed co-operation ? How are we
to suppose a difference of principles in men who have always
followed the same flag, suffered the same lot, and in fine,
have united in forming and carried to completion an enter-
prise advantageous to their country ? If this indicates op-
position and want of harmony, it is, notwithstanding, to be
preferred to the friendship which others profess but do not
feel ; because words are of little importance when they do
not correspond with actions.

Lastly, if the suspected difference exist, how comes it that
the Minister who had the appointment of his own colleagues,
not only named Senor Alava one, but proposed for him 'ale
Presidency of the Ministry, which he might as well have
reserved for himself ? Is such conduct ever observed, hot
merely towards persons from whom oppositio❑ is hppre-
headed, but even towards those who have not given 'weighty
guarantees of conformity of principles ?

SOLEBY V. RAY.

i
The plaintiff n this case sought to recover certain wages
at the rate of 30!. per annum, viz., four months and four
days, when his master dismissed him, and for that period he
claimed remuneration, and also for one month for warning.
The defendant pleaded that he had tendered the plaintiff
all that -was due to him at the rate of 25!. per annum, but
he refused to accept the tender.
The Learned JUDGE had left the case for the. Jury, who
found a verdict for the plaintiff..
Mr. Ross obtained a rule to show cause why a new
trial should not be granted, on the ground that the tender
and non-refusal were a sufficient bar to the plaintiff's right,
to recover.-

The Learned JUDGE, however, was not disposed to dis-
turb thC verdict of the Jury, who bad decided not only from
the preponderance of evidence, but that the custom of the
trade allowed a month's warning.
Mr. Ross took nothing by his motion.

INS,OLVENT DEBTORS' COURT. •
Wadams, a venerable-looking man, upwards
of seve4 years of age, was opposed by Mr. WOODROFFE,
on the part of George Hall, Esq., the Director of the
Northern Central Bank at Birmingham.
The insolvent, who, is very infirm, had been four months
in prison, and when he alluded to the circumstance he shed
tears " such as fools say become not men to shed." It ap-
peared that he had lived all his life on his property in War-
wickshiro• .1 now ascribed his degraded situation to having
acceptedictill:of exchange to the amount of 4,4841. for the ac-
commodation of a Mr. Henry Gould, who was a cbccsefactor
at Birmingham, and who had married his daughter. That
person stopped payment for 11,0001., and his creditors agreed
to take Gs. Bd. in the pound. The insolvent gave his ac-
ceptance jointly with Gould, and took an assignment of the
property. The instalments on the bills were not paid.
Gould had been a bankrupt, and was discharged under the
Act. The insolvent had been arrested on some of the bills,
and the opposing creditor was the holder of bills to a con-
siderable sum. The old man was allowed a seat, and ap-
peared little acquainted with his affairs. He was attended
by a daughter, who evinced the utmost solicitude for her
parent.
The insolvent underwent an examination, in which he
was assisted by his daughter.
The case was ultimately adjourned for some information
to be procured, and on its arrival the poor old man will be
discharged.
The Court rose till llonday.

Buenos Ayres Papers have been received at the North
and South American Coffee House to the 19th July •
(From the above papers.)

it shows that our political atmosphere is unruffled. Bank

Notwithstanding the Consuls of the Republic in Foreign
countries do not receive salaries, the Government in order to
regulate and reform every branch of the public treasury, have
ordered.—

" Art. I.—The sth article of the law of the General Con-
gress of April 7, 1826, which designates the salaries to be
paid to the Consul Generals of the Republic in Europe and
America is revoked.

" 2. The said Consuls are not in future to be allowed any
class of expenses, which may not be previously designated by
the Government. " ROSA S."

A Decree, dated the 15th instant, contains new regulations
respecting the rations to be allowed to the troops.
His Excellency the Governor received the congratulations
of various corporate bodies of the province on the 9th instant,
the anniversary of the independence of the Republic. The
Rector of the University, in his address, said that the country
had now every expectation of enjoying tranquillity, from the
exertions of his Excellency th.e Governor. The Charge d'Af.
faires of the Emperor of Brazil addressed his Excellency,
offering him his congratulations upon the anniversary of the
independence of the Confederate Provinces of the River
Plate, stating that it cannot but give pleasure to the Regency
of the Brazils the drawing closer the relations of friendship
and good understanding between the Emperor and the Argen-
tine Republic. To which his Excellency the Governor re-
plied, that the Government feel the highest satisfaction in con-
sidering that the relations of friendship and understanding
which happily subsist between foreign nations and the Re-
public have not to the present moment suffered the least in-

ierruption ; and the Government likewise experience particu-
lar pleasure on hearing the sentiments of lively sympathy and
good will which animates the Regency of the Brazils towards
the Republic of Buenos Ayres.
The cavalry of the guard of honour given to his Excellency
the Governor on the 9th instant made a superb appearance ;
the horses were all of a bay colour, their trappings were of
gold and silver, rich crimson velvet, red cloth, and embroidery.
