TRIUMPHANT RECEPTION OF
DR. BOWRING, M.P., IN THE ISLE OF
MAN.

(Abridged from Mona's Herald.)
Yesterday morning preparations were commenced
at an early hour, and the greatest excitement every-
where prevailed among the inhabitants, in order to
receive Dr. Bowring, who, with his lady, was to
arrive by the mail steam-packet, King Orry, in the
afternoon, with all due respect, honour, and grati-
tude, and evince to the world that the Manx people
are not ungrateful to their benefactors. The day,
although a little lowering, continued throughout all
that could be desired ; and a large portion of the in •
habitants appeared not to have changed their Sunday
attire, except in the immediate vicinity of the places
where the triumphal arches were being erected along
the line of procession which the non. Gentleman
would pass on his way from the pier to Castle Mona.
The numerous shipping in the harbour displayed a
profusion of their choicest flags. Cannons were heard
at intervals throughout the afternoon, and after the
packet came in sight the firing in all directions was
continuous.

Shortly after three o'clock the various Friendly
Societies began to assemble at the Odd Fellows' Hall,
in Athol-street, and shortly after five proceeded to the
pier in procession, with banners, bands, &c. All
having taken up their position in due order, awaited
the arrival of the packet. Meanwhile thousands of
spectators, all in holiday attire, crowded to the pier
and place of debarkation, animated by one enthusi-
astic feeling of gratitude to the man who had so suc-
cessfully pleaded their rights in the British Senate.
About half-past five o'clock the mail-packet, King
Orry, Captain Gill, with all her colours flying,
reached the pier-head; and immediately on coming
within hail, the cheering with which the assembled
thousands welcomed their honoured visitor was long
and loud, and the enthusiasm unbounded. The ordi-
nary passengers having landed, the Fiscal Committee
went on board to welcome Dr. Bowring and his lady.
Mrs. Bowring leaning on the arm of Sir W. Hil-
lary, and the Doctor on the arm of W. Kelly,
Esq., as they set foot on Mona's shore were received
with renewed cheering, the bands striking up " See
the Conquering Hero Comes," escorted by Lieut.-
Col. Campbell, with Sir Wm. Hillary, Magistrates,
the Fiscal Committee, and many other respectable in-
dividuals, accompanied with equally enthusiastic de-
monstations, proceeded along the pier to the Victoria
Hotel, the whole route being lined with many thou-
sand spectators. Dr. Bowring and his lady, accom-
panied by Mr. Wm. Kelly and Mr. T. Garrett, jun.,
having entered the carriage, the procession moved on.
At length, the procession having reached the Castle,
the general cheering was resumed, and the bands
striking up their liveliest tunes, the Hon. Gentle-
man rose in the carriage and attempted to address the
crowd; but it was many minutes ere silence could be
obtained or his voice heard, and as it was, almost
every sentence of his short but excellent address was
enthusiastically cheered. The Hon. Gentleman spoke
nearly as follows :
" My friends, I wish my voice had many times its
real compass, hat so far as words would convey to
you what I feel, I might express to the thousands
here assembled, my deep sense of gratitude for this
most unexpected reception—this unexampled demon-
stration.—(Cheers.) I have done but little to deserve
all this kindness. You laboured under a deep wrong.
Her Majesty's Ministers lent a willing ear, and were
anxious to promote your welfare.—(Cheers.) It has
been raid that man is naturally cold and ungrateful,
but, my friends, I have never found it so ; my ex-
perience has been far different. Your kindness, my
friends, has been far, very far beyond my deserts or
I what had any right to expect.—(immense
cheering.) This demonstration proves that ingra-
titude is no charasteristic of the Isle of Man.—(Re-
newed cheering.) As I came along I heard a cry of
' Down with the House , of Keys.'—(The Hon. Gen-
tleman's voice was instantly drowned in a burst of loud
and long-continued cheering which was repeated unin-
terruptedly for about five minutes • when silence was
in some measure restored he proceelled)—My friends,
I am not here to join in that cry. The Keys may
be rather rusty and I have no objection to their being
polished a little ; they are too little used, and the first
asing I would do is to try to make them open their
own-doors. They must be improved so as to har-
monise with the spirit of the age; but, my friends, I
will not lend my aid to overturn any of your vene-
rable institutions. The Keys may be of im-
mense service to their country, and especially
now when increased intercourse is to be opened
up between your island and the surrounding
countries.—(Cheers.) You may, my friends, feel
assured that on all future occasions no single indivi-
dual in your island shall want the aid of my assist-
ance in redressing their wrongs.—(Cheers.) I grate-
fully and most cordially thank you for this most
flattering reception."—(lmmense cheering.)
The immense multitude who crowded the Castle
grounds remained for some time after the Hon. Gen-
tleman and his lady had retired to their apartments ;
the fiscal committee remained for some time at the
Castle, and the bands enlivened the scene with many
of their very spirited strains. It is supposed that al-
together during the procession no fewer than 10,000
persons were assembled.

- During the evening bonfires were kindled on
Douglas Head, Banks' How, and an immense fire
blazed from the apex of the landmark on the Head,
and in various other localities. There was a splendid
display of fireworks on the Castle Mona grounds.

NIGHT POACHING PREYENTION ACT.—An Act
came into operation on the 4th of July last to extend
the Act of the 9th of Geo. IV., c. 69, which was passed
to prevent persons going armed at night for the destruc-
tion of game. It appears that the recited Act has been
of late years evaded by the destruction, by armed persons
at night, of game or rabbits, not upon " open or enclosed
lands," as described in the said Act, but upon public
roads and highways, and other roads and paths, leading
through such lands, and also at the gates, outlets, and
openings between such lands, &c., so that not only has
the destruction of game or rabbits not been prevented,
but the risk of murder and other grievous offences in-
creased, and great danger and alarm occasioned to per-
sons using such roads, highways, and paths. It is now
declared that the punishments and forfeitures imposed by
the recited Act shall extend to persons unlawfully taking
or destroying any game or rabbits on a road, highway,
or any path, and they may be seized without a warrant,
and dealt with according to the provisions in the statue
mentioned.
An alarming accident happened on Thursday last
to the second son of Earl Jermyn, a fine spirited youth
about seven years of age. He was riding a Shetland pony
in the park at Ickworth, in company with his noble pa-
rents, and had advanced a little before them, when the
animal suddenly ran away and threw him with great
force against the trunk of a tree. The Earl and Lady
Katherine hastened forward and found him in a sense-
less state from a violent blow on the head, and her Lad-
yship remained with him on the grass whilst his Lordship
hastened for the carriage, in which he was conveyed to
the hall, still insensible. The attendance of Dr. Probart
and Charles Smith, Esq., was procured as quickly as
as possible, and the latter gentleman was with the little
sufferer all night, great apprehensions being entertained
for the result, but he rallied in the course of the follow •
ing day, and we rejoice to hear that he is likely to do
well.—Bury Post, Sept. 24.
DESPBRATH AFFRAY WITH POACHERS.—In conse-
quence of a suspicion that one of the plantations on the
Saltram property had been cleared of its game by
poachers, a watch was set, and on Friday night last
poachers were met with, and a severe conflict ensued.
One of the under keepers, named George Saunders, who
first met with the offenders, was seriously injured ; he
was beaten most unmercifully, and then gagged to pre-
vent his making any alarm which might bring him help.
The poachers now fled, and having crossed a field, were
climbing a gate that they might escape into the turn-
pike road, when they were surprised by an attack from
the head gamekeeper and two of his assistants, who had
been lying in ambush. Here another fearful struggle
took place. which ended in the capture of three of the
poachers, the fourth having escaped. These were takes
to Saltram House, and confined there until the next day,
when they were taken to Ridgway befere a bench of
magistrates, who fully committed them for trial at the
coming assize. The names of the captured poachers
are—James Saunders, George Davey, and John Lang-
`don. The fourth
.party having escaped his fellow-
poachers decline giving -his name.. A hare and two
snaring nets were found upon the person of James
-Saunders, who is in no way related to George Saunders,
his Lordship's keeper. Several of the parties, as may
be supposed, are very severely bruised and wounded.—
Devonshire paper.
RAILWAY THAFELLING.—The man who travels by
a railroad sees nothing, learns nothing, and is nothing,
from the commencement of his journey to its termina-
tion. Speed saves, or, it may be said, annihilates time
and distance, but at what cost ? We are not putting a
money question. At what loss? should be the word.
He who reclines in a locomotive machine, going at the
rate of thirty miles an hour, is as insensible to the beau-
ties of the country he is passing through, to its legen-
dary attractions, to the origin of its hamlets and its sa-
cred temples, as the engine itself. In such a traveller
the poetic impulse must be chilled. If he be aged he
must feel that old times have passed away; that father-
land, dear to his early affections, does not exist on the
line of railway; and that, what he once saw with rap-
ture, and cherished in his memory, is now all blank—a
long line of cold iron, burning cinders, dirty smoke, suffo-
cating vapour, and eternal dreariness. On the other
hand, if the traveller be young, he has little to regret, in-
asmuch as he is deprived, by the modern process of fly-
ing over the land, of any opportunities of being conscious
of what is worth being seen, studied, and admired in
the rural retreats of England. This is a change which
few people think of. It is all very well to take a steam -
flight from London to Liverpool or Manchester, from
London to Bath, Bristol, and Exeter, or from London,
or from any one place to any other, by steam power ;
but it is quite another thing to consider of what vast ad-
vantages the rapid tourist is deprived, by not being en-
abled to see the beauties of the country, the gems of an
old land, the hoary ruins, and the temples gray, and the
historic spots, and the classic ground, and the once noble
castle, and the dismantled abbey and monastery, and all
that venerable time and tradition have sanctified in an
ancient kingdom.—Liverpool paper.

THE ISLAND OF JERSEY.
(From the League.)
Amongst the most useful as well as the most agree-
able results of the railway system, are the excursions
to considerable distances at cheap rates, and with thaw
allowance of sufficient time for the travellers to look
about them. The operatives of Manchester and
Birmingham have thus had, and availed themselves
of, the opportunity for becoming acquainted with the
sights of the metropolis; and many a Londoner who
would scarcely have found it practicable, a few
years ago, to get beyond the sound of Bow bells;
has lounged amongst the beauties of our coast
scenery, or had a wholesome wonder excited by the
inspection of some grand specimen of manufacturing
machinery. Besides the actual amount of enjoyment
thus afforded, there is great good in the information
obtained, the stimulus given to observation and
thought, the abatement of local prejudices, and the
raising the general mental qualification of those whose
voices tell in the expression of public opinion, and
very often their votes in the selection of representative
legislators.
During the present week the South-Western Rail-
way has offered to a cargo of Londoners conveyance
to and from the Isle of Jersey, at the cheap fare of
28s. there and back, railway carriage and steam
voyage both included, and one week allowed for re-
turning. This excursion was well thought of. The
remarkable peculiarities of the Channel Islands, both
physical and social, cannot fail to make the tour a
most interesting one. It has all the advantages of a
visit to a foreign country, combined with a sufficient
prevalence of the English language to secure the un-
educated traveller from any embarrassment.
The first sensations or the citizen at the deep blue
sky above, and the deep blue sea below, the grotesque
rocks and the beautiful bays, will scarcely have sub-
sided before he becomes equally astonished at the
cheapness of every thing. At the best hotels in St.
Helier's he may have every accommodation of bed,
board, and sitting-room, at 245. the week. He will
find good bread from five farthings to three halfpence
the pound. Ducks, ls. 6d. the pair. Fine poultry
turkeys, 2s. to 3s. each. Gunpowder tea, 6s. per lb.
Double refined sugar, 4id. to 6kd. per lb. ; and Bra-
zil, 3d. Pert wine, 15s. the dozen ; very good sherry
at from ls. to 2s. the bottle. If a brandy-drinker, he
will get it good at 33. 6d. a gallon and finer than is
to be had in England at 7s. the bottle for that same
a gallon. Hollands, 2s. 10d. to 3s. 4d. the gallon.
If he inquire the rent of a house, he will
usually find it below even the cheap out-of-the-way
country-houses in England ; little more than one-
half of those in villages near London ; and with this
important circumstance, that the rent is all that has
to be paid for the house ; there are no taxes. To be
rated, and so have a vote for the local authorities, is a
favour which English residents obtaia with difficulty,
and. which, when obtained, is in its amount little
more than nominal. The total cost of the island
government, which includes all that corresponds with
the parish as well as the state expenditure in England,
is defrayed by a small import duty on wines and
spirits. By this means the whole expenditure is met,
even to that of mending the roads. There is no such
thing as a toll-bar on the island. The roads and the port
are alike free, with the trifling but sufficient exception
just mentioned. Hence the striking contrast with the
price of similar articles in England. A hundred
pounds per annum there is worth at least one hun-
dred and fifty on the island; more rather than less;
for the difference of currency must be added to that
already made apparent in our list, and this alone is
considerable. The English shilling goes for thirteen-
pence in Jersey, so that after all the cheapness, when
the Londoner comes to the payment, he will be yet
more delighted to find, on proffering the account,
that he may " take his change out of that."
Why is all this ? Not because Jersey is a little
island, and Great Britain a large one. No : it is
simply because Jersey has, by ancient charter, and
for the political purpose of conciliating a people whose
natural connexion would rather seem to be with
France, the privilege of free trade. There is the
whole secret and mystery of the matter. The diffe-
rence as to bread, sugar, &c., is what we in England
have to pay for monopoly.
The bread in Jersey is very good. It is generally
made from foreign wheat. There is plenty of home-
grown corn. The soil is exuberantly fertile. But
the Jersians eat bread made from Prussian or Danish
corn, and send their own wheat to England : thus
buying at the cheap market of free trade, and selling
in the dear market of monopoly.
For persons of limited incomes, Jersey is a para-
dise, especially if they like a warm climate. It offers
little attraction to the working classes. Whatever
perversion may be made of the fact, it is right to
mention that wages are low. We see no evidence
that the freedom of trade causes this evil; on the
contrary, it mitigates the mischief which it has
not prevented. Two reasons for the fact offer
themselves to notice ; first, a large influx of poor
Irish, those colonists and missionaries of pauperism
attracted chiefly by the low price of spirituous liquors.
Even the pledged Irish are here out of Father
Mathew's sight. And secondly, the prevailing cha-
racter of the island. The natives do not know what
a factory means. Agriculture alone always debases
the labourers to serfdom. It is so here. The little
tenant-farmers are farmers, labourers, carriers, fisher-
men, &c., all in one. There must be manufactures
to keep up wages. Except shoemaking, for British
North America, whither from 10,000 to 20,000 pairs
are annually exported, scarcely anything is made in
Jersey. And yet the natural produce (especially
of apples for cider), and the foreign trade, render it
rich and thriving ; the landowners and shipowners
being the principal recipients.

MADAME TUSSAUD'S.—This delightful exhibition,
with its rich and tasteful embellishments, attracted our
editorial presence within its gorgeous saloon on Satur-
day last. The varied objects of interest, including the
Napoleon room, in which several well authenticated and
interesting relics are deposited, combine to make this
one of the most popular and entertaining resorts in Lon-
don. The great expense lavished upon it, to render its
principal features worthy of public patronage, ensures a
full attendance at all times ; and no marvel, for the
room in which the figure of George IV. in his corona-
tion robes is located, may be ranked among the best speci-
mens of modern decoration. The " natural monstrosity,"
Tom Thumb, is far snore agreeable in wax than in
propria persona ; and having seen the original, we can
pronounce it an excellent representation, while the
visitor to this exhibition is not obliged to witness the ri-
diculous and monkey tricks of the poor little General.
Au excellent band, which performs popular quadrilles
and waltzes, not forgetting the Polka, is also provided.
SINGULAR OCCURRENCIL—On Monday, the 9th
instant, as a married woman named Davies, from Govi-
lon, was proceeding on her way from that place to
Abergavenny, and was passing through the wicket-gate,
opening from the fields near Pengrwllod on to the bridge,
an adder, which was lying coiled up by the aide of the
pathway, sprang at her and fastened on her arm. The
terrified woman succeeded in shaking it off, and ran on-
wards as fast as she could, but what was her horror to
find, when she paused to take breath, 'that the reptile
was in swift pursuit of her, and had well nigh reached
her, when fortunately a man came up and succeeded in
destroying it. Afterwards, the nest of the adder was
found, containing 18 young ones ; the woman, aho was
in a delicate state when the accident occurred, has not
yet recovered, and now lies in a dangerous condition.—
Hereford Times.

A TORTOISB CAUGHT STRATING.—As a farmer
was proceeding towards his harvest field near Houghton,
on Monday last, his attention was attracted to a dark-
looking substance on the road, which seemed to have
the power of locomotion. On a closer examination he
discovered a freckled head and neck peering out
from beneath the shelly substance, which was being
moved along by dark little feet, having the appear•
ante of India-rubber. The farmer naturally stared
on seeing so strange a thing, but after some little
compunction, timorously seised hold of it, when his
knowledge of natural history informed him that it was a
real lire tortoise ! And a very beautiful and lively little
creature it is. It was brought to our office, and on being
placed on our editorial desk, manifested an irresistible
desire to pry into our inkstand. How it came into the
neighbourhood of lloughton is a mystery ; but as we
found, on inquiry, that a quantity of guano had recently
been used in a field from which it was " tracked," it is
not improbable that it has been imported in a guano-
laden vessel, and lain hid until the sack in which it was
confined was opened.—Carlisle Paper.

PitorEssioN or ♦ Nurt.—One of those interesting
ceremonies, so frequently to be witnessed in this emi-
nently Catholic country, took place yesterday in the
Presentation Convent, Midleton. The young lady who
was there professed is Miss Louisa Daly, daughter of
our fellow-citizen, Maurice Daly, Esq., Waterloo-place.
The Rev. Dr. Keane, the exemplary pastor of Midleton,
officiated in the absence of the venerated Bishop of the
diocese, the Right Rev. Dr. Crotty. The whole cere-
mony was conducted with the most impressive dignity,
the professed repeating all the answers in a firm tone of
voice, and with remarkable distinctness. A beautiful
sermon approprite to the solemn ceremony, was preached
by the Rev. John Browne, of this city, who took his text
from the 115th Psalm. A great number of the friends
of the young nun, together with many of the clergy of
the surrounding parishes, were present, and at the cere-
mony, partook of a splendid breakfast which had been
laid out in the largest apartment of the building.—Cork
Examiner.

Ladies travelling, or temporarily subjected to any
deviation of equable temperature, will find in Rowland's
Kalydor a renovating and refreshing auxiliary, dispel-
-1 ling the cloud of langour from the complexion, and
immediately affording the pleasing sensation attending
restored elasticity of the skin. The distressing and
unsightly varieties of cutaneous eruptions arc also
promptly eradicated by the Kalydor. Spots, pimples,
freckles, discolourations, and sallowness, yield to its
specific qualities, and are succeeded by a smoothness and
transparency of the skin, giving rise to sensations of the
utthost pleasure and surprise. Its universally great de-
mand excites the cupidity of unprincipled shopkeepers,
who give the title of "6enuine" Kalydor to some com-
pounds of their own manufacture, of the most deleterious
character, containing mineral astringents utterly ruinous
to the complexion, and by their repellant action endanger-
ing health. It is, therefore, imperative on purchasers to 1
see that the words " Rowland's Kalydor" are on the
wrapper. All others are fraudulent counterfeits l 1 I

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS
FROM TEE MORNING PAPERS 07 THIS DAY.
CITY, THURSDAY EVRNING.
TIMES.-The irnpregsion produced by the meeting
of Bank Proprietors held last Thursday, that an alters'
tion would be made in the rules for identifying parties
making transfers, has proved correct. A resolution
been passed by the Court of Directors to the effect, that
no clerk, except principals, or deputy principals, shall b°
allowed to identify, and that no intermediate identifier
tion shall be allowed under any circumstances whatever.
Some persons have made rather an absurd objection ti)
this wholsome regulation, by observing that it casts!
slur on the character of the honest clerks of the ests".
lishment in consequence of the act of a dishonest one.
It might be said with equal propriety, that the man who
locks his desk to prevent its contents being misaPPr°'
priated, thereby offers an indirect insult to the other re
sidents in his house. The Bank of England are rr
sponsible for all the losses that may arise by fraudulent
transfer of the public funds; they have found by 06
late forgery that the rule which allows their clerks t°
identify may easily lead to dangerous results; 4nd the
Directors have, therefore, very properly passed a reIRY
lotion by which one method of fraud is cut off ozsuP
pletely.
It transpired to-day at the meeting of South Se.
Stock Proprietors that Government has not yet CO,:
pleted the guarantee fund. However, there seems to
but little doubt that tilts matter will be speedily st
ranged, though of costae, should any delay occur, tu:
