dangerous speculator, had he called upon the people
of these islands to celebrate a festival in homage of
every degrading and pernicious principle, it
would scarcely have been possible to excite a more
violent storm of depreciations. The whole proposal
has been treated as the target of sarcasms, of sar-
CAMS pointed by ignorance and poisoned by malig-
nity. It has been ridiculed not only in the aggre-
gate, but even to the minutest particulars. Instead
of being grateful for an opportunity so advantageous
for the advancement of commerce, for the incite-
ment of industry, and for the improvement of ma-
nufactures, a large part of the community has been
grumbling at its approach as at a prospect prophetic
only of evil and discomfiture. Miserable predic-
tions of all kinds have been disseminated. Now it
has been maintained that the Exhibition must prove
a failure from the indifference of foreign nations, from
the circumstance of no one, or scarcely any one,
coming to London in 1851 from the continent.
Then it has been whispered by others that the Exhi-
bition must turn out a failure from an exactly coa-
-1 trary reason, namely, from the circumstance that so
many will flock to the metropolis that the con-
course will be regarded as a perpetual an-
noyance, and every individual derive from it
only a sense of dissatisfaction. Again it
has been pretended by one class of curmudgeons that
ill effects must inevitably result from the disclosure
of our modes and processes of manufacture while
another class has maintained that must
necessarily be engendered between ourselves and the
foreigners, in consequence of a competition which
will end in becoming a rancorous rivalry instead of a
generous emulation. All the changes of complaint,
in fact, have been rung upon the subject, almost
from the first period of its suggestion, cer-
tainly from the moment when the Com-
mission for its development was established.
Recognising from the energy and industry
of the Commissioners the fact that the scheme
of his Royal Highness would, in spite of all obstacles,
actually be carried into operation, these wretched fore-
boders of evil evinced only an increased pertinacity of
opposition. Failing somewhat in their endeavour to
influence the public mind prejudicially in its estimate
of the Exhibition in its entirety, or even in its details,
their attention was next directed to the spot selected to
become the arena of international competition, and upon
the choice of that locality they forthwith grew snore
than ever censorious. The bare idea of Hyde-park
being the site of the proposed building seemed to strike
them as altogether preposterous. They scouted the
notion as one so supremely ludicrous as to be scarcely
credible. They could scarcely have derided more
loudly a proposition for erecting the Hall of the Ex-
hibition upon the apex of the lightning conductor at
the Duke of York's Column, or upon the point of
that unsightly bunch of gilding . which adorns the
summit of the Monument. Without of course pre-
tending that the exact spot chosen for the construc-
tion of the glass and iron palace of the Exhibition of
Industry is the most appropriate that could have been
decided upon in the lengtti and breadth of the
capital, we may very safely assert that no matter
what the place selected fur that structure, it would in-
fallibly have been declared by these grumbling depre-
ciatory tube about the last spot that should have been
dreamt of as suited to the occasion or the enterprise-
Happily the personages entrusted with the carrying
out of the undertaking have turned a deaf
ear to all the objections raised against them
by the more captious of the population, advancing
resolutely in their labour of preparation undeterred
by sneers or calumnies, by the noisiest complaints
and the darkest forebodings. Had not this been the
character of their proceeding matters would have re-
mained in statu quo so long as to have precluded the
Government from the chance of carrying into effect the
beneficent notion propounded by his Royal Highness
the Prince Consort. Had the Commissioners hearkened
in any one instance to the insidious advice of
their critics they must inevitably have fallen into a
dilemma not unlike that of the old man and his ass
in the narrative of the classic fabulist. Fortunately
for the well-wishers of the Exhibition, for those in
any way interested in its conduct, the original plan
has been followed from the commencement without
any appreciable modification. By the time the sti-
pulated month in 1851 has arrived everything will
have been completed. Already most of the space com-
prised in the projected building has been allotted, and,
in all probability, the last portion of it will have been
distributed before the close of the present October.
From this it may be perceived that, while there is
no lack of activity on the part of those entrusted
with the direction of the enterprise, there is also, at
the same time, no deficiency of confidence among
those who are disposed to participate in its advan-
tages. So conspicuously are these two facts already
developed, that we are sanguine that all sounds of op-
position and evil augury will have died away before
the lag rivet has been driven and the last fragment
of scaffolding has been removed.

Another letter has been received from Mr. SMITH
O'BRIEN, dated the 98th of February last, in which,
like those to which the attention of Parliament and
of the public generally has already been directed, the
unfortunate gentleman complains bitterly of the treat-
ment he has received at the hands of the colonial au-
thorities, and which he ascribes to the orders of the
Governor, Sir WILLIAM DENISON, and the Comp-
troller-General, Dr. HAMPDEN. It is, however, but
a repetition of the former charge, which has been
fully canvassed ; fur he distinctly admits that in
consequence of the state of his health there had
been " a relaxation of the restrictions under which he
was placed, which had the effect of restoring his
health," and he says nothing of having been again
subjected to the vexatious regulations which be ap-
peared to feel so deeply. It is therefore to be hoped
that the new instructions sent out from the Colonial-
office may have the effect of rendering his situation
as comfortable as may be consistent with his safe
custody, and as he himself will permit it to be.
It is indeed deeply to be lamented that a gentleman
of family and education, who had ever maintained the
highest character for honour and integrity, should be
an exile from his native land, deprived of the society
of his wife and children, and of all that could render
life desirable ; but Mr. O'BRIEN has only himself
to blame. In every stage of the proceedings—in
every matter in which he has been brought into col-
lision with the law of the land, he has been treated
with great and almost singular lenity. Oa the first
occasion, when the misguiied gentleman set the
entire House of Commons at defiance, and refused to
obey the established regulations, without which
the business of the country could not possibly be
carried on, he was discharged from confinement at
the earliest moment consistent with the dignity of the
august assemb/y, of which he was himself a member.
So soon as the Committee on which be was appointed
to serve bad concluded its-labours he was released
by an unanimous vote of the House. Indeed, he
would never have been consigned to the " cellar" Lad
he left any loophole by which the Committee of
Selection could have escaped reporting his
conduct to the Hope, or the House itself
from punishing his contumacy. Had he made
any excuse, however trivial, or expressed a desire to
be relieved from his attendance on that occasion, his
request would have been readily acceded to; bUt,
unfortunately, he would do nothing but give a direct
and positive refusal to serve, on the untenable
ground that, as an Irish Member, he would not in-
terfere in any matter in which the affairs of Ireland
were not concerned. He wip, in fact, determined to
be a martyr, and nothing could induce him to swerve
from that insane resolution.

LONDON; TUESDAY, OCTOBER s, 1350.

Experience had so fully d",monstrated the certainty
or even the most humane schemes of the philanthropist
, meeting with opposition, that we felt assured from the
first that all kinds of obj,ctions would inevitably be
raised against next year's Industrial Exhibition.
Nevertheless, we must acknowledge that we did not
• for a moment anticipate anything' at all comparable
to the fierce and unremitting attacks which have now
far a considerable time been directed against the pro-
ject itself ar.d its illustrious originator. 'We had
foolishly enough - conceived that " the force
of. follq " would fail in an attempt so
, egregious and malevolent, and that, in ad-
'llition to this, some sentiments of common de.
~.cenay would have restrained even the most rash from
maligning- the intentions of his Royal Highness the
Prince Consort. In so imagining we have been
grievously mistaken. It has, perhaps never fallen to
the lot of any► proposition to encounter such a
very ntica.kTous.and Yirille4t body* assailants. Had
the Prince, instead of following the dictates of his
elevated judgment, yielded to the suggestion of some

His subsequent conduct was of a similar character.
On his return to Ireland he bearded the Irish
Government, and let slip no opportunity of exciting
the people to resistance. He was indicted for sedi-
tion, and happy would it have been for himself had he
not escaped the consequences of the minor offence
through the zeal and ability of the accomplished ad-
vocate who conducted his defence, and the doubts of a
juror, who dissented from his eleven brethren. The
disagreement of the jury on that occasion afforded
him the opportunity of subjecting himself to graver
penalties, by committing the highest crime of
which a British subject could be guilty—appearing
in armed rebellion against the SOVEREIGN to whom he
had repeatedly, as a magistrate and a Member of the
Imperial Parliament, solemnly sworn to bear true
allegiance.

After the abortive attempt at Ballingarry, his cap-
ture, by what was tantamount to an act of self-

surrender, to which, with the singular disregard of
"self" which constitutes so extraordinary a trait in
his character, he was impelled by a desire to save the
peasantry from the formidable consequences of
sheltering or assisting a person in his un-
happy position, and his conviction by a jury of
his couutrymen—a conviction which was affirmed
unanimously by the Irish Judges, and subsequently
by the highest tribunal in the British empire—he
refused to accept the proffered mercies of our Most
Gracious QUEEN. He demanded, as a matter of right,
that the extreme sentence of the law should be car-
ried into execution, and, so far as practicable, de-
clined to accede to the condition on which the penalty
of death was remitted. His obstinacy did not, how-
ever, draw down upon him the retribution which it
would have undoubtedly provoked in " the good old
times." He was not permitted to reap the natural fruit
of his perversity, to expiate his offence upon the
scaffold, a fate which he was willing to encounter.
It was necessary to show that he could not set the
Executive at defiance with:impunity, and the miti-
gated punishment of transportation was carried into
effect ; but he was not classed with the common
herd. One of her MAJESTY'S vessels was sent out
with him and his companions, MEAGHER, Mintrius,
and O'DONOGHUE, and no complaint has ever been
preferred of their treatment during the voyage ;
which, on the contrary, received, as it justly merited,
the approbation of the prisoners themselves, and of the
community at large.

On their arrival at the place of destination a ticket
of leave was offered to each of the state prisoners.
This was contrary to the usual custom, which only
concedes such an indulge.nce after a certain term of
probation had been passed through. The extraor-
dinary privilege was gladly accepted by his associates,
who unhesitatingly gave the required pledges ; but
again Mr. O'Barert was determined on running
counter to the authorities, and of bringing serious in-
conveniences upon himself. He refused the liberal
offer, and appeared astonished at the personal
suffering thereby occasioned. The Governor or the
Comptroller-General could not travel out of the fixed
regulations, but the moment there was an adequate
excuse for their relaxation it was immediately con-
ceded. The scene of his imprisonment, Maria Island,
is, as he himself declares, " as little objectionable as
any other spot that could be chosen ;" and he might
have the companionship of his wife and children if he
himself would allow them to come to the colony.
Under all the circumstances, every rational man must
acknowledge that neither the Government at home
nor the colonial authorities can be justly censured for
the sufferings which the misguided gentleman has
undergone, and which are altogether ascribable to the
unswerving obstinacy of his own disposition.

FIRE AT A LICENSED VICTUALLER'S AND BREWERY,
AND MARROW ESCAPE —This morning, between two and
three o'clock, a fire broke out on the premises of Mr. T. W.
Smith, Lion Brewery, No. 13, Lambeth-walk, Vauxhall.
The fire was discovered by the policeman on duty, who per-
ceived smoke issuing from between the shutters; he imme-
diately gave an alarm, and in a few minutes the lower part
of the house was in flames, and the inmates escaped with
great difficulty over the roof. The engines of the London
Fire Brigade were quickly on the spot, but although they
were worked with great alacrity, the fire was not subdued
until the cellar and lower part of the premises were com-
pletely destroyed, and great damage was done to the brewery.
'File building was insured in the London and County Fire-
offices.

Hunger that which gives the poor man his
health and his appetite, and theiwant of which often afflicts
the rich with satiety and disease.—Eliza Cook's Journal.

THE FIRE IN THE CITY AND PROJECTED NEW
STREET.—Yesterday an influential deputation of the in-
habitants of the Tower Ward waited upon Mr. Alderman
Finids, to request him to use his influence in preventing a
new street being made through the ruins of the late calami-
tous fire in Mark-lane. The deputation pointed out to the
worthy alderman the necessity that existed for widening one
part of Great Tower. street, which could be done by merely
pulling down a few old dilapidated houses; but they argued
that if a new street should be carried over the ruins from
Catherine-court, Tower-hill, into Mark-lane, it would have
the effect of greatly injuring the business of the various
tradesmen residing in Tower-street, by taking the traffic
away, and making the street a back thoroughfare, and the
receptacle for all sorts of nuisances. The alderman having
heard the matter dispassionately discussed, it was eventually
agreed upon that a petition should be signed by the inha-
bitants of the ward, praying the improvement committee
forthwith to order the removal of the few houses in the street
before mentioned, in order to afford greater facilities to the
increasing traffic to and from the docks. The deputation
having thanked the alderman for the attention he had pail
to them, then withdrew.

THE LATE MURDER AT LAUGHARNE, SOUTH
WALES.—The proceedings at the adjourned inquest on the
body of the late Mrs. Severne, of Brixton, near Laugharne
(of whose death, under sudden and suspicious circumstances,
a notice has appeared in The Sun), although not sufficiently'
complete to induce the jury to close their inquiry, have ne-
vertheless tended to establish the fact that the death of the
deceased was caused by the administration of arsenic, and to
strengthen the suspicion previously entertained that the
poison was administered by her own cook, Elizabeth Gibbs.
The examination of the different witnesses were extended
over a very protracted period, and the inquiry was again
adjourned.
MR. MECHI ON ADVERTISING.—I think there is
false delicacy amongst some people on this matter. In my
opinion advertising is a legitimate means of making known
the wants and wishes of both buyers and sellers—whether
they be for an estate worth half a million of money, or for a
pair of " Mechi's best razors." It is merely making an ex-
tension of your shop front in the newspapers, whether the
article be seen there or in the window, in both cases its
qualities remain to be tested., It never can answer to adver-
tise a bad article. By advertising a good one you extend
your connexion, which might otherwise be limited by the
number and class of people who happened to pass your door,
and their connexions. For my own part, my spirit likes a
wide range ; and I remember once receiving an order through
the Hudson's Bay Company, from poor Mr. Simpson, on his
Polar expedition, whilst almost at the same time I was sup-
plying a missionary from the Sandwich Islands. I believe
when the taxes are taken off knowledge and advertisements,
farmers will more frequently intercommunicate by the public
papers, and thus avoid being devoured by jobbers and deal.

MINERAL PRODUCTS OF ENGLAND.—It has been
thought highly desirable by the executive committee to ob-
tain for the great exhibition such a collection of British
mineral as shall give some idea of the mineral wealth of our
country. With this view the committee have issued a eata—
logue of the earths, clays, mineral carbon, spars, marbles,
ores, precious stones, &c., requisite to form such a collection,
with regulations as to the size of the specimens to be sent.
In regard to building stones, cubes of six inches are recom-
mended, with one side rough and one finished. Gems, &c.,
are, if possible, to appear in duplicate, one showing the
rough stone, and the other the polished and finished orna-
ment. Statistical information respecting the locality of the
product, and the processes to which it is subjected, in order
to render it useful, is required

known to be drowned :—Mr. Rattenbury, Plymouth ; Mr.
and Mrs. Gossett, Jersey ; Miss Price, daughter of Captain
Price, R.N., Guernsey; Mr. Willis and niece; Mr. Jackson
and his son and daughter; Mrs. Baker and daughter; Mr.
Sedgwicke ; Mr. Pinson ; Palmer, stoker ; Billot, cook ;
Patrick Williams, cabin boy. Besides thesosixteen, it is as-
certained that there are at least five, if not six, persons miss-
ing, all of whom, it is feared, are lost. One of them was from
Gorey, near St. Heliers ; another was on his way to New
York from Rennes; and a third appears to have been an
English Gentleman named H. W. Hall, of Bristol, who has
been lately residing in Dinan. Of the rest no information
has been received. The persons saved amount to twenty-
nine, exclusive of the crew. The Superb is a total wreck,
having been washed off the rocks iuto deep water by the
late hurricane.
DANISH CATTLE.—The steam-ship Giraffe, ar-
rived from Tonningen, has brought 199 head of oxen and
cows, and 34 sheep; and the steam-ship Wilberforce, ar-
rived on the same day from Tonningen, brought 192 head of
oxen and cows, and 13 sheep, the produce of Denmark.
The manners, customs, and domestic economy of
the natives in this quarter will soon be familiar to her Ma-

Crathie, and partook of the homely cheer offered to her. She
inquired the ages of his children, as they appeared before
her, and, in return, mentioned the ages of her own, point-
ing out the Royal Family by name. On her way to Balmo-
ral, the same day, she called on the old weaver of the dis-
trict, and entered with him into all the necessary details for
preparing an equipment of home-made tartan for family
plaids.—Aberdeen Herald.
The Sandwich Island letters reach to the 13th of
July. Everything was going on prosperously, and the con-
templated law had been passed to enable foreigners to hold
lands in fee simple. Referring to a recent case in the Su-
preme Court of the islands, one of the New York papers has
the following paragraph, conveying a lesson to the autho-
rities of that city which may be applied in London with
still greater force :—" We copy," it says, " the following
report of a law case in the Supreme Court of the islands, not
merely because it is curious, but to point the attention of
our own legislators to a fact. In the Sandwich Islands, a
nation which even at the present day can scarcely be re-
cognized as:entirely rescued 'from barbarism, they have at
least gained one step in humanity on the civilized lawmakers
of this Christian laud. They have forbidden, by express
statute, ' the turning, leading, or driving of dangerous ani-
mals through the streets of a populous town,' and the violator
of that enactment only escaped the punishment of man-
slaughter by the fact that the person killed brought his
death upon Lhimself .by his own misconduct and obstinacy.
Here is a lesson for our New York Common Council, which
we hope may be improved."

MONEY and COMMERCIAL NEWS.

The failure of all the Exchange Banks in Scotland,
established as they were for the special purpose of
affording accommodation upon Railway Shares, has very
naturally attracted attention, and the Banker's Maga-
zine thr.ws further light upon the subject by certain
details of an official character. It is remarked that—

" The fact that the former directors of the Glasgow
Commercial Exchange Company had been guilty of the
attempt to rig the market,' for the purpose of endea-
vouring to support prices, is distinctly pointed out in
the circular of Mr. Jameson, who has bean appointed
to wind up the company, dated the 15th of July last.
Such irregular practices as these, however. are unfortu-
nately not the only grounds of complaint which the
shareholders have against the directors. Ia some cases
shares have been taken as security for advances, on
which shares only a small amount has been paid up, and
the company has become responsible for the
calls ! The West of Scotland Exchange Company have
been prevented winding up their affairs from
this cause. The results of such mismanagement as we
have referred to are most disastrous to the shareholders.
Mr. George Kinnear, the manager of the Glasgow Com-
mercial Exchange Company, in a letter advocating the
interests of that company, published in 1847, says:-
6 I beg of you to recollect what class of people it is
who are the great majority of depositors, mostly per-
sons incapable of working, maiden ladies, widows, and
orphans—people incapable of making the most of their
money for themselves; nay, most of them, either from
their sex or their ignorance of business, hardly capable
of judging where their money is safe.' Such are the
depositors, and, Mr. Jameson says, such are the share-
' holders. It is satisfactory to know that the depositors will
uitimaely, it is believed, sustain no serious loss. The
joint-stock bank principle of unlimited responsibility of
the shareholders, shows its efficacy with terrible ear-
nestness in this instance. The shareholders will lose all
their paid-up capital, and must subscribe rateably to
provide for the deficiency. The Glasgow Commercial
Exchange Company are stated to have lost 650,000 L, or
nearly double the amount of their capital; and the other
companies which are winding up, will only return a mi-
serable instalment of the subscribed capital to their
shareholders."

The English Stock Market is rather dull, and the in-
telligence from Hesse-Cass el and Holstein is again of a
nature to justify the impression of continued complica-
tion in those quarters. Consols have been 96i1 for
Transfer, and are now 961 /. For November they have
realized 961 being at present 96/ Exchequer-bills
have been marked 645. to 67.5, and India Bondi to
88s. premium. India Stock for account has realized 268.

In the Foreign Market prices generally are not quite
so buoyant. Mexican Bonds have been 3li I, Peruvian
Four-and-a• Half per Cents. 80, Equador 3i, and Buenos
Ayres 58. Brazilian Small Bonds have been marked 90i.
Spanish Five per Cents. have been 1511. and the Three
per Cents. 381 j-. Dutch Four per Ceuta. have been
8811 to A, and Russian Four-and-a-Half per Cents. 97k.
Railway Shares have been very good again, and, with
rather a quieter state of things, prices are fairly main-
tained.
