The following is a copy of the letter written by
the POPE to the Bishop of Rimini :
" You inform us that you and the clergy of the city
of Rimini earrestly desire to give the blessed Virgin a
public and striking mark of your eminent piety and
gratitude; that you have resolved to ornament with a
crown of gold that image which, under the title of
Mother cf Mercies,' and according to the relation
which you give, has become celebrated within the last
two months throughout the whole country by the mi-
raculous movement of its eyes, to the great advantage of
the faithful ; an image which is honoured and venerwed
with much piety and devotion. You t xpress to us at
the same time the desire to celebrate this ceremony on
the 15th of Atio6us', the day on which the Church with
solemn pomp celebrated the triumph of the holy Mother
of God—her assumption into heaven.
" And because you and the clergy of Rimini have it
much at: heart that this ceremony shall he celebrated
with the greatest possible solemnity, you ardently sup-
plicate us that, if it ha possible, we will grant it to be
celebrated in her name and by our authority.
" We have great joy in granting these your prayers;
we have nothing more at heart, and nothing is more dear
to us than to make all we know tend to the glory and the
exalted praise of the blessed Virgin Mary.
(Signed) " Pius?'

A letter from Piacenza of the 26th ult., in the
Risorgimente, of Turin, states that the Government
still continues to search the College of San Lazzaro,
in the vicinity orthat,town. Such is the vigour dis-
played by the Government officials, that walls are
pulled down, and even tombstones taken up and the
vaults examined. Some of the missionaries, it is said,
are to be expelled from the country.

on Saturday last, under the maragement of Mr. Belcour, of
provincial celebrity. He has spared no expense to render
the theatre available to its numerous visitors, with a good
company selected from the principal London stars, with
Sheridan Knowles's play of the Hunchback, a divertisement,
and the farce of That Rascal Jack. The house was very
fully attended.

'Tis said that the light of thy spirit is fled,
That the wild, flashing mirth of thy soul is no more:
Like the urn that remains though the red wine be shed,
Like the rose that is blighted—thy brightness is o'er.
Sweet Harp of Green Erin I thy chords may not give
Such tones of rich music as charmed us of old;
Yet the world-vaunted fame of thy minstrel will live
Till the warm soul of Erin grows lifeless and cold.

Those sounds of sweet melody fresh in its heart;
Though in darkness and silence the harpstrings may sleep,
The spell which hangs o'er them will never depart.

A PLEASANT COMPANION.

A laughable story is current in this city about Cal-
craft, the Loudon hangman, who passed through here
on Thursday week, haviiig " a retainer" which re-
quired his presence at Monmouth. In the course of
the morning one of the Monmouth coachmen was ac-
costed by a tall, decent-looking man, bearing a carpet
big, who wanted to learn when the coach started for
Monmouth. The knight of the road informed him
with all the suavity due to a customer. " Ah,"
said the strainger, "it is a long time to wait; I should
like to take a glass of ale." " Well, sir," replied the
obliging coachman, "my house is the —, and you
will be well served theta ; I will go with you. Sup-
pose you leave your carpet bag at the office ?" "No,
no," said the stranger hastily, clutching the handle
firmly, " I would rather not part with that." To
make a long story short, the improptu friends
lunched together, afterwards dined together,
and then

doubtless enjoying each other's conversation,
the
joinedpipe tothgeet hpearr.ty,laVand fteilsats or
the usual greetings the discourse turned upon business.
"I
say," said the new corner, "I shouldn't wonder if
one ot us has Calcraft to take down to-day." "Blow
me," was the reply, " if I take him. I drove that cus-
tomer before, a year agone, and a shabby customer he
is, too. He neve r gives nothing to nobody,' he don't, and
he shan't have the opportunity with rue." And then the
two friends joined in a full, true, and particular account
of Abster Calcraft and his_doings, and his looks;ihabits,
manners were confidently, if not accurately sketched.
" A 1,," said one, " he sold five ropes. as that which
Rush was hung with"—" and five suits of clothes as
the one he was hung in," chimed in the other. The
stranger meanwhile said nothing, probably having
too much taste to be so personal ; but a keen ob-
server might have noticed that his visage grew a
shade darker, and he puffed his smoke rather
more fiercely as the epithets of his companions
grew more racy. At length, the coachman and his
stranger friend started for Monmouth, and chatted
pleasantly on the road, whereat some brothers of the
whip passing up, seemed to stare, though the pace
was too fast to give or seek explanation. The de-
nouement occurred, we believe, at Ross. The coach-
man, to his chagrin, discovered that though he was
determined not to carry such a scurvy rogue, yet that
he had actuilly lunched, dined. and smoked
with Calcraft himself; and to make matters worse had
abused him before his face. "Never mind, my boy," said
Calcraft, tipping a 'billing as he got down at Mon-

CL ERKEN WELL.

Yesterday Daniel Scanlon, a powerful-looking
Irishman, was placed at the bar, charged by Jane
Carroll, a young woman, with having violently as-
saulted her.

The prosecutrix, whose face was shockingly bruised
and disfigured, and who was in a weakly state, said
that she met with the prisoner, who represented him-
self as a single man, paid his addresses to her, and
under a promise of marriage induced her to cohabit
with him, and the result was the birth of two children,
one of which died, and the other she placed at nurse.
His wife came from Ireland, and on hearing of the
prisoner's delinquency sympathised with witness and
took the surviving child under her protection, whilst
witness endeavoured to procure her livelihood by
needlework. On the previous evening, feeling anxious
to see her child, she went to the prisoner's house for
that purpose, when the prisoner had some words with
her, knocked her down, and whilst on the ground he
kicked and beat her in a most unmerciful manner,
until she became insensible, and was taken to the
hospital, where she was restored to her senses.
Police-constable 65 G deposed that he heard cries
of " murder" in Caroline-buildings, Clerkenwell,
where the prisoner resides, and found him ill-treating
the prosecutrix, who was on the ground insensible.
He took the prisoner into custody.
The prisoner, on being asked what he had to say to
the charge, with cool indifference admitted all the
prosecutrix had said to be true.
Mr. TYRWHITT told the prisoner he was a savage,
cowardly, brutal fellow, and ought to be ashamed of
himself. He fined him 31., or six weeks' impri-
sonment.
Jane Wright, a handsome young woman, was
charged with being drunk, and attempting to commit
suicide.
A police-constable said that on Monday evening
he was informed that a young woman (the prisoner)
was drunk, in Old-street, St. Luke's, and had at-
tempted suicide with a knife. He took her into cus-
tody, and a knife (now produced) was found in her
possession. She said her mother resided at No. 3,
Northampton- row,. Clerkenwell.
The mother attended, and said a gentleman, re-
siding in Banner-street, St. Luke's, paid his ad-
dresses to her daughter, under a promise of marriage,
seduced her, and abandoned her, which so afbeted
her mind, that she left her home, and wandered about
drinking.
The prisoner, who was very dejected, on being
asked if she would return home with her mother,
cried, and said " She had been a good mother to me ;
if I go home with her, I shall not stop with her."
Mr. Cosine suggeeted that she should have a pri-
vate interview with her mother ; after which she con-
sented to return home with her, and they left the
court together.

hour's journey from London.

ME-SSE:S. DANIEL SMITH and SON will
SELL, by AUCTION, at the Mart, on TUESDAY, September
10, (unless, previously disposed of by private treaty), a compact FARM
of 104 acres, with a double cottage, suited for the bailiff or a tenant
of the land, and various farm buildings. This estate has been laid
out with the view of rendering it an ornamental pleasure farm, with
plantations, ponds, and dri‘ es. Only about 40 or 50 acres are in cul-
tivation, the remainder (sheep walk and plantations) affording a very
improvable field for any one disposed to secure his health by agree-
able country pursuits. It is near the village of. Frimley, and Farn-
borough Station, on the South-Western Railway, where there is a
branch to Reading and Reigate, only two miles from the College at
Sandhurst, and one from Bagshot, with hounds within an easy reach.
It may be viewed, and particulars had of Mr. Minnis, on the pre-

vast =opt of statistical details, and lxoid►y and

accurately arranged, have now appeared, and we feel
confident that this compreLensive work—a work ne-
cessarily involving vast labour and expense—will, on
its completion, be found the most valuable book of
reference which has yet appeared as a Road-book
and County Atlas, and prove of the most bignal
utility to the man of business and the traveller.

FRASER.

Fraser this month is a purely literary periodical,
and the greater number of the literary articles are of
a very high order of merit. Our friend, the Natura-
list, continues his delightful leaves from his note-
book, and gives us a pleasant account of the
serpent-charmers, from the days of the Psalmist
down to this present month of September, 1850,
when two of the race are attracting all the London
world to the Regent's-park Zoological Gardens.
General Conway's "Letters to Horace Walpole" are
continued, and the tale of " The Heirs of
Gauntry" is concluded. The article entitled
" The Sounding Statue of Memnon" is one of
the most logical examples cf classical criticism which
it has ever been our good fortune to peruse. Well
would it have been for the cause of truth had all
writers of history possessed the critical acumen, the
remarkable power of weighing evidence, the
logical method, and the sound judgment of the
writer of that very remarkable paper. We have re-
views of Tennyson's Poems, of Professor Creasy's
Eminent Etonians, and of the late musical season.
The number commences with an introductory chap-
ter to a series of papers entitled " The Age of
Veneer," in which the writer tells us it is his inten-
tion to " show up" all sorts of "shams ;" and con-
cludes with a pleasant gossip anent the watering
places and summer haunts of England.

three or four hours ; and that his answer to the
charge, when taken into custody, was to the effect
that as he was not a servant to Mrs. Allen, it only
amounted to a breach of trust, and that a lawyer,
whose opinion he had taken, had told him that nothing
could be done with him for it.

S-rgeant Moore, 1 B, the officer who apprehended
the accused, was then put into the witness-box, to
make some addition to his former testimony, and
stated that, while conveying the prisoner to the sta-
tion at Pimlico, he entreated him to let him go,
stating that he would make it all right with him.
His (accused's) mother would give him .51.
Mr. F. Cook, inspector to Mr. Macnamara, con-
tractor for the mail-carts, proved that the prisoner
was in his employment, and had neglected to attend
at the Post-office with his cart at 40 minutes past one
on Saturday, the 17th ult., the day upon which he
obtained the money, as it was his duty to do, and had
not since resumed his duty, witness not having seen
him until that day (yesterday).
S-rgeant Moore said that he had called repeatedly
at his lodgings and watched them day and night, but
he never saw the accused until he apprehended him in
Bloomsbury.
Mr. Child addressed the Magistrate with his usual
ability upon the case, and submitted that there was
sufficient to justify him in asking for the prisoner's
committal for trial.

A solicitor, on the part of the accused, considered
that there was nothing to reply to, contending that
the charge merely amounted to a breach of trust, and
that the whole of his conduct showed that no felony
had been committed.
Mr. Child reminded the advocate on the other side
that his client's absconding, and subsequently run-
ning away from the officer when he saw him, were
strong evidences of his guilt. Mr. Child then cited a
case tried in 1838, in support of his opinion that the
accused had been guilty of larceny, in which a drover
sold a bullock which he had been entrusted to deliver,
and in which the judges before whom the cage was
tried pronounced the conviction of the offender by the
jury to be good.
Mr. BURRELL thought the case in some respects
differed from the present.
Mr. Child respectfully demurred to that opinion,
and after expressing his view that if such acts as the
prisoner's were to be deemed only a breach of trust,
there would be no security for society, solicited a fur-
ther remand.

Mr. BURRELL immediately granted the required
remand for a week, and refused to accept bail for the

accused.

ROYAL SURREY ZOOLOGICAL GAR.
DENS•

The lovers of instrumental music were greatly de-
lighted at these pleasant gardens on Monday last, when
the entertainment provided for them by a generous ma-
nagement presented an ensemble rarely witnessed. The
bands of the Royal Artillery, the 2(1 Life Guards, and
the Coldstream Guards, were, by permission of their
respective colonels, added to the well-known band of the
establishment; and the whole conducted by Godfrey.
The effect was re illy magnificent. We have rarely
heard su perfect a combination Of wind instruments, and
the precision and force with which some of the pieces
were rendered was indeed perfect. The " Battle Sym-
phony," accompanied by aischarges of mu,lectry, was
very grand. The display of fireworks was gorgeous,
and, added to the other attractions, rendered the evening
remarkable in the brilliant annals of these gardens. We
understand the Me will be repeated On Monday next,
a lien no doubt this popular place of amusement will be
crowded. To-day there is a grand dahlia show, which
will be very attractive. •

Yesterday morning our friends of the barrel, im-
patient of the additional day thrown between them and their
game, were up early, and eagerly pursuing their way to the
fields, which, in this district generally cleared of the sheaf
and the swarth, present a clear stage for their sport. The
birds, we believe, are an average number—in some dis-
tricts more than usually plentiful; the day, too, was favour-
able, but we have not returns Of the dead.

DRURY-LANE THEATRE.

Huleroft's bustling comedy of the Road to Ruin
was repeated here on Saturday, with the same cast as
on the former occasion; and Mrs. Winstanley more
than justified the favourable impression which she had
produced on the evening of her first appearance by
her admirable impersonation of the character of the
Widow Warren. Thi2 lady is a great acquisition to
he Drury company. The Harry Doraton of Mr.
Ande-rscai was admirable, and the Silky of Emery
very good. The pantomime, which now goes excel.
lently, followed, and it was delightful to witness the
enjoyment of the children, with whom the Drury
pantomime seems an especial and deserved favourite.
The house was crowded.

The new burlesque continues to draw crowded
houses here every evening, and vti such a cast it will

sustains her high reputation. The Ninth Statue will

their sides ache again go to the Adelphi and s€e
Wright as Frankenstein rmlie a model man, the
model man being Paul 13,dford, who plays the
" What is it ?" to the very life. Fortunately, to pre-
vent our sides from splitting, we have occasional
intervals of repose, during which we see
some very pretty scenery, and some very pretty
nymphs, with Miss Emma Harding as the most
graceful of Undines. The Willow Copse preceded
the burlesque on Saturday, and Airs. Bunbury's
Spoons followed. The house was, as usual, more
than crowded. It was a regular Adelphi crush. .

PRINCESS'S THEATRE.
Schirra's opera of Mina continue: to draw crowded
houses to this home of the English lyrical drama, and
we are glad to find that the beautiful melodies of
this delightful opera are becoming more and more
appreciated as they become known. They were
delightfully rendered on Saturday by Miss Louisa
Pyne, Harrison, and Weiss, who were rapturously
applauded throughout the performances. The
pantomime of King Jamie follQwed, and eli-
cited roars of laughter. The appearance of
" the Prime Minister" was voted by all the
youngsters to be " prime fun," the likeness of
the mask being unmistakeable. The amusing vaga-
ries of Flixmore, the most active and flexible of
dancers, elicited shouts of laughter and applause,
and the whole performance went off admirably.

I It is said that the PorE has written a letter to
General OUDINOT, announcing his intention of return-
jog to Rome almost immediately.
The French Univers, which is likely to he well
' informed on the subject of the intentions of the Papal
Court,
dated 24t publi h
D ecsh m N
es the following letter froaples,
.:
" I write you two lines only to-day, as lam starting
for Caserta, where the Sovereign Pontiff officiates at t tie
Christmas mass. He returns to Poriici on the 26th.
The return of Pius IX, to Rome is seriously spoken of
as fixed for the 15th January. Every preparation is
being made ready at Rome for his reception, while all is
busy for his departure at Portici. The Pope absolutely
desires to return to his people and to his capital, Eaying
that ho places his trust in the Almighty. Ile has ex-
pressed his will in so tin( quivocal a manner that it is
hard to believe that his departure will be again postponed.
The only cause which makes men fear a postponement
is the delay in the loan affair. It was thought that it
had been concluded, hit it is far from being so; and it i 3
impossible to say how the Pope can leave without the
necessary funds upon which he had counted."
A letter from Rome of the same date says :
"We are rejoicing. The Holy Father returns. Per-
sons who, from their position, aro the best informed, openly declare it. The Pope's brother, Count Gabriel,
and his nephew Louis, have already arrived, and have
taken up their quarters at the Quirinal. This return,
no one-doubts it, will restore peace to unfOrtunate Rome."
We learn from the Piedmontese Gazette of the 29th
ultimo, that the Via Emilia, the well-known road
between Bologna and Forli, is being constantly
scoured by the Velites and detachments of the
line and cavalry, on account of the robbers who infe,t
the country around. The Minister of Finance at
Rome has authorized the Commission Extraordinary
of the 'four legations to direct the provincial govern-
ment officers to accept payment in Roman batik notes,
notwithstanding the forced currency has increased.
Several domiciliary visits have been made at
Leghorn.

FRANCE.

MU. Daru, Barroche, and Benoist d'Azy, have
been re-elected Vice-Presidents of the National
Assembly for the next three months. General
Bedeau was the next highest, but having failed to
secure an absolute majority the ballot was to be re•
sumed this day. The six secretaries were re-elected.
The debate on the La Plata question was adjourned
after a speech from the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
General Labial, in which he said that the intention
of the Government was to send negotiators to Buenos
Ayres to continue the negotiations, since they
could not accept the treaty of Admiral
Lepredour ; and added, that the negotiators would
be accompanied by vessels of war to protect
the lives of French citizens. M. Raudot denounced
all attempts at interference in the affairs of South
America, declared that an armed negotiation was a
conditional war, and hoped that the Government of
Monte Video would be warned that the present
was the last subsidy that would be voted to it.
Admiral Dupetif Thouars urged the fitting out of
a large expedition for the defence of Monte Video,
and the vigorous prosecution of hostilities against
Buenos Ayres. The debate was adjourned at the
conclusion of the Admiral's speech.

NIPRoVE D DWELLINGS for the roon
it At the present moment, when a day of National Thanks-
giving is appointed, it cannot be out of pace to bring before the
minds of the Christian public some of the efforts which have been
made, and are still making, to remedy the deplorable evils which
endanger both the lives and the morals of the poorer classes of
society.
The SOCIETY for the IMPROVEMENT of the CONDITION
of the LABOURING CLASSES has now been occupied for more
than four years past with these objects:—
It has bnilt a range of Dwellings for the Industrious Classes, on
sanitary principles, at Bagnigge-wells, Gray's lan-lane: here
twenty-three families and thirty single women are accommodated.
It has repaired and rendered fit for healthy occupation four houses
in King-street and Charles-street, Drury-lane, wherein 103 working
men are accommodated.
R has built, in George-street, St. Giles's, a Model Lodging House
for working men, where 101 persons of this class find a cemfortable
habitation.
It has repaired and fitted up, at No. 76 , Hatton-garden, a house
for tke accommodation of fifty-eight females of the working-classes.
It is now building. In Streatham-street, Bloomsbury, a' range of
dwellings for mechanics and their families, wherein about 43 such
families will find good and healthy habitations.
At Tunbridge Wells it is aiding to raise a series of cottages fo
a,gricaltural labourers, of which six and a lodging-house for single
men are already completed and occupied.
Besides these various works, it is in constant correspondence with
a great number of benevolent persons in all parts of the kingdom ;
who apply for its aid in the building or Improvement of cottages, or
the settiug-out of cottage allotments.
In these various works it has expended, and is expending, more
than Twenty-three Thousand Pounds. For the works now in hand
a further sum of between Three and Four Thousand Pounds is needed ;
towards which the Committee now solicits the contributions of the
benevolent. •
The following are the sums already subscribed towards the house
now erecting in Streatham-street :

This work contains as accurate and complete account of the
Anatomy and Physiology of the Reproductive Organs. It un-
fortunately happens that the unhappy victim of excessive indul-
gence and vicious habits, while suffering from their Invariable con-
sequences, unwisely entertains a fear of ap ;dying to a qualified physi-
cian for relief. Shame and the dread so frequently, but erro-
neously entertained that these complaints are beyond the reach of
art, alike restrict him and prevent his seeking 'or assistance where
alone it can be procured. Dr. L.I'MERT has taken the highest
medical honours, as his diplomas testify, and the great extent of his
practice for many years is a guarantee for his professional experi-
ence, which has reference almost solely to the treatment of these
diseases.

KENILWORTH CASTLE

As it appeared on the occasion of Good Queen Bess's Royal Visit.
For further particulars inquire of Sir Walter Scott. It is an histori-
cal fact that Good Queen Bess paid the Earl of Leicester a visit, and
' paid the piper." This, his gorgeous fete, half ruined him ; there-
fore we pity his fate, but must admix: his wondrous generosity, fer
all he ever hoped for in return was—half-a-crown. The Earl fore-
stalls Shakspere, lfy discovering " that the course of true love never
diet run smooth," for here he meets with some twenty " competi-
teurs," and to him they do come " petit oars," for they prove per-
fect boars, or, more properly speaking, bores. A Lovers' Quarrel
on a grand scale, a sort of " tiff for the million," takes place, which,
although beginning in love, ends in war, and the total destruction of
