LAMP.

The great fault which has proved fatal to the success of the Vesta
Lamp, viz., the emission of black smuts and smoke, is entirely ob-
viated in the Paragon—the brilliancy and purity of its light surpasses
any other yet seen, and burns for one half-penny per hour.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton Fel-
gate, are replete with every variety. The Spirit, analysed by Dr.
Lire, is sold by C. Watson, at 4s. per gallon.
Contracts given for Chapels and Public Buildings.

TO GLASS MANUFACTURERS AND OTHERS.
TO BE LET (with Immediate Possession), an
Old-established Glass Manufactory, which has hitherto been
used and known as the " RAVENHEAD FLINT GLASS IVOIlli+."
containing two glass-houses, cutting-shop, steam engine, manager's
residence, cottage, stabling, and other buildings, &c., attached ; pos-
sessing facilities for manufacturing either flint, crown, German sheet,
plate, or bottle glass, and the whole being peculiarly well adapted for
carrying on an extensive and lucrative business.

The premises are situated near St. Helen's, where they have been
established for a period of 23 years and upwards, and are contiguous
to coal mines, and to canal and railway, and distant only 12 miles
from Liverpool ; affording unusual advantages in obtaining materials,
and in the transit, sale, and export of the manufactured goods.
Terms and other particulars, and permission to view, may be had
on applying either personally or by (pre-paid) letter, to Mr. Bell, or to
JOHN ANSDELL, Solicitor, St. Helen's.

From Scotland, and nearly all parts of England, the arrivals
of slaughtered Meat since Monday last have been on the de-
crease, though somewhat large for the time of year. With
London killed Meat, however, we have been well supplied,
while a decided improvement has taken place in quality. For
nearly every description of Meat the demand has ruled very
firm, and full prices have been realised in every instance, and
at which good clearances have been effected. About 20
carcases of foreign Beasts, and a few Calves and Sheep, have
appealed on sale. .

WADE'S LONDON REVIEW,

The Number of this Review for the present month
is excellent, and contains a great variety of interesting
and valuable matter. It opens with the introductory
chapters of a Greek classical romance, entitled, "Am-
bition," the hero of which is Erostatus—
" The aspiring youth, who fired the Ephesian dome."
This tale, which is full of incident, and is written
in a pure and classical style, is not unworthy the pen
of Walter Savage Landor himself. We have in a re-
view of " Osborne's Guide to the Azores and the
West Indies," a most instructive and amusing account
of the various places visited by the packets of the
Royal Mail Steam Packet Company, on their route
out and home. From an elaborate review of
" Thiers' History of the Consulate and Empire," we
extract the following passage :
"M. Thiers is a man of quick parts and frequently sa-
gacious discernments, but he is behind his time, and does
not comprehend it. It is not an age of enthusiasm or
illusion, but of utilities, especially of the utilities that
multiply
material
comforts, enjoyments, and conve-
niences. This is not less the bent of nations than of
their rulers. European thrones were never so exem-
plarily filled, by princes who are a model to their sub-
jects, and intent on advancing their enduring interests.
In lieu of building iron fortresses, and barricading their
frontiers, they are seeking to open them, to connect
states by the strongest tie of peace, the power to minister
to their mutual wants. France herself is fast catching
the prevailing spirit, becoming commercial and industrial,
despite of the little agitating demons, who, intoxicated
with their own tropes and rhetoric, try to divert her
from peaceful arts. By conquest, she can reap no new
laurel ; twice she has overrun Europe ; and the empire
of Napoleon was not less ephemeral
i than that of Charle-
magne. In modern warfare there ! little held for true
glory, hardly any scope for he.roisr.n.. Itbrute
slaughter ; only disgusting, not inspiring. Ever since
the days of the Chevalier Bayard, war has been becoming
more of the nature of a &situ, a mechanical butchery on
a large scale, by the united aid of balls, powder, and
steam. The attacking column, by which most battles
are won, is a battering ram of human beings, almost as
insensate, with just as little power of volition, affording
just as little opening for the coward to flee, or the brave
to reap distinction, as that ancient engine of dedestruction.There is no fascination, nothing for the imagination in
this worn-out game of royalty ; it is a dull death's feast,
and men will soon begin to revert to its dismal horrors,
with the same revolting feelings that they looked back to
cannibalism, human sacrifices, or other bloody rites of a
dark end savage age."

Dispatches from the Governor of New South Wales, and
also from the Governor of New Zealand, were received on Sa-
turday at the Colonial-office.

IRELAND.

DUBLIN, JULY 12.—OSZ OP TIIE SENTINELS AT THE
\"ICE• REGAL LODGE SDOT.—Ao alarming rumour was in
irculation yesterday that one of the sentinels at the Vice-regal
Lodge, in the Plicenix Park, was shot dead the previous night.
Can proceeding to the park we ascertained the following par.
titulars :—About one o'clock yesterday morning one of the
police on duty at the Vice-regal Lodge heard the report of a
gun or pistol at a point within the wall of the Viceregal garden,
known as " The Bush," and on proceeding thither found the
sentinel, John Kelly, of the 44th Regiment, with his right hand
shattered as if by slugs or small bullets. He told the police-
man that he had heard some noise near his box, and on turning
out to challenge, the shot was fired which wounded his hand.
The report of the weapon soon brought other guards to the
spot, and the wounded man was removed to the Royal
Hospital, which is ■bout a mile from the scene of this
extraordinary occurrence. The medical gentleman con-
nected with this institution at once decided upon &Am -
putating the haad, which was done, and the man is
going on favourably. It was suggested soon after the shot was
heard, that Kelly shot himself thus with the view of being
pensioned oil; and rigid search was made about the ground,
but no weapon was found. tie is ready to depose that ha
was wounded as he stated to the policeman, but it is a remark-
able fact that several yards away front the box a pool of blood
was discovered and marks on the ground, as if by the discharge
from a pistol. The officers of the 44th believe that Kelly in-
duced some friend to inflict the wound, who immediately made
off when he accomplished his object. What possible motive
could any one have in shooting a sentinel placed where Kelly
was at the moment ? He says he had ne quarrel with any enu.
His musket was loaded when the alarm was given, and it would
be impossible for any of the chain of sentinel* around the lodge
to commit the act.

It is a remarkable fact, that about forty years ago, during
the Vice-royalty of the Duke of Richmond, a nearly similar
case occurred. A sentinel was shot in the hand, and his
stun: was believed, until Colonel Rawdon produced, from an
adjoining bush, a pistol which was seen with the man the pre-
vious evening.

As soon as Kelly is convalekent, which is expected to be
in a few days, a rigid investigation will take place. He is a
young lad, only eighteen years of age, but recently enlisted,
witl his father is a pensioner.

BRAZIL.

Extract of a private letter bearing date Rio Janeiro, May 3,
1845. The second discussion of the budget has passed the Lower
House. The following formed part of the proceedings :

" From and after the Ist of July, 1845. cotton manufactures,
the origin and produce of Great Britain and her dominions, shall
pay into the Custom-houses of Brazil one.fifth, or twenty per
cent., on the amount of the duties recoverable by the general
tarifr.

" The Government, however, is authorised to order the collec.
tion of this differential per centage to be suspended, immediately
that the British Government shall extend to the sugars of Bragil
the reduction in duty which she has recently conceded to other
oreign sugars imported into England."

THE LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL.

The Council Chamber was crowded co Saturday last by a
great number of the inhabitants of Auckland and the settlers
in its vicinity to hear what his Excellency u, ight say upon the
very disastrous occurrences at the Bay of Islands. After
postponing the order of the day for the further con-
sideration of the estimates, his Excellency proceeded to detail
the unfortunate results of the engagement of tie Hazard's
people with the natives. In the course of which he dwelt with
great truth and feeling upon our present defenceless position.
His Excellency also read several portions of his dispatches to
Lord Stanley, repeatedly urging in the strongest manner the
absolute necessity of at least a regiment of troops and two
war steamers being at once sent out by the Home Govern-
ment for the protection of the European interests here
and furtherdan-
gerous

the Home Government of our perilous, and tu 'protected con-
dition. The Governors' long silence upon this most im-
portant matter, has often led us, and the puilic, to believe
that he was not fully alive to the danger of our position. We
are, however, most happy to find we were mistaken on that
point ; we only now sincerely trust that his .Excellency does
not place too much confidence in the statement of the natives,
as to their pacific intentions, for he may depend upon it they
are not to be trusted.

ITOL. VIII. OF LIVES OF THE QUEENS
OF ENGLAND.

BY AGNES STRICKLAND.

" The eighth volume of this most interesting and valuable work
contains the Lives of two Queens, who played a very prominent part
in the most remarkable era of English history—namely, Henrietta
Maria, th; wife of Charles 1., and Catherine of Braganza, the wife
ofCharles 11. The picture which M. 8.9 Strickland draws of the
domestic life of Charles I. and his unfortunate but highly talented
and accomplished Queen, is fascinating in the extreme. She appears
to have carefully examined all the writings of the period, and her
opinions, consequently, are all founded on facts. The life of Cathe-
rine is equally full of interesting and entertaining matter. The in-
ternal economy of the court of Charles IL, and the dissoluteness
that prevaliol, are set before the reader in a manner that presents
the best and the most faithful picture of the state of things at the era
in which they occurred. The present volume, on the whole, in the
great research which It displays, is fully equal to any that have pre-
ceded it, while in point of interest, arising from the fact of its ap-
proaching more nearly to our own times, it very far surpasses them.
The work, when completed, will be one of the most valuable addi-
tions that for many years has been made to the library of the his-
torian."—Sunday Times.

UNITED STATES CORVETTE ST. LOUIS.

On the arrival of the United States Corvette St. Louis, at
the Bay of Islands, a rumour prevailed that Captain M'Keever,
her commander, had offered the services:of 150 of her men, in
assisting the British force to defcnd the town of Kororarika and
its inhabitants. When the attack commenced by the natives,
and application was made to him for aid, he declined
rendering it. The circumstance gave rise to many
unfounded rumours and statements, affecting the conduct of the
Americans : but the following excellent letter, addressed to
Captain M'Keever by Lieutenant Phillpotts, acting in com-
mand of H.M.S. Hazard, states the real facts, and we doubt
not that it will remove any unfavourable unjust impression that
may have been hastily and erroneously formed, while at the
same time it must excite universal admiration for the generous
sympathy that was evinced, and kind prompt asistance rendered,
by Captain M'Keever on that disastrously memorable day.
H. DI. S. Hazard, Auckland, March 17, 1845.
Sir,--I cannot allow the St.. Louis to quit this harbour
without returning you the most sincere thanks of our officers
and ship's company for the assistance you rendered us in taking
off the sick and wounded from the beach at Russell ( Korora-
rika), on the 11th inst., whilst exposed to a heavy fire from
the Maories, and also for the general attention you have evinced
towards us.

I must further offer you my personal thanks for having
relieved me of the responsibility of bringing here one hun-
dred and fifty inhabitants or Korozarika.
Before concluding this letter I feel bound to allude to a
statement which has gone abroad, of your having declined
rendering me assistance when requested to do so. At the
time II applied to you for aid, I was under the impression
that you had promised to land one hundred and
fifty men, should we be hard pressed. That im.
pression was formed mere] from what I had casually heard in

dence was principally confined to the facts of the death of Seve-
veral petsons, that is that those persons were killed by gut,
shot wounds, &c.

[ADVERTISEMENT].—A CERTAIN CURE FOR SCRO-
FULA OR KING'S EVIL, BY HOLLOWAY'S PILLS AND
OINTMENT !—Many of the hospitals finding that a num-
ber of their patients afflicted with ulcers, abscesses,
and sores, but more particularly from scrofula, who had
been discharged as incurable from various medical in-
stitutions, were afterwards soundly healed by Holloway's
-tills and Ointment—this fact has induced several infir.
maries to purchase by weight from the proprietor, Hol-
loway's Ointment, for hospital use, for the purpose of
curing this class of patients. All such would therefore
do well to have recourse to those famed remedies, when
suffering from similar ailments. These medicines may
he obtained of all chemists and druggists throughout the
civilised world, and at Professor Holloway's Establish-
ment, 224, Strand.

THE AGATE STONE.—It was stated a few days
since that agate seals, imported into this country from the Conti-
nent, made of agate stone, and formed into the shape of seals, re-
quiring only to be engraved in order to render them a complete
manufactured article, and fit for their intended purpose, were to
be considered goods manufactured, and charged with the ad va-
lorem duty of twenty per cent. A question has since been made
with respect to brooches, made of the same kind of stone, which
have undergone a manufacturing process beyond eutting, being in.
laid, and, therefore, though not set in any other material, were in a
certain degree manufactured. It has been decided that such ar-
tidies cannot be admitted free of duty, as " agates not set," accord-
ing to the meaning of the new Act Bth Victoria, chap. 12, in re-
:spent thereto, :but. are also to be charged as. goods, wares, &c., in

Lamp, viz., the emission of black smuts and smoke, is entirely ob-
viated in the Paragon—the brilliancy and purity of its light surpasses
any other yet seen, and burns for one half-penny per hour.
C. Watson's Warehouses, 41 and 42, Barbican, and 16, Norton rot-
gate, are replete wills every variety. The Spirit, analysed by Dr.
Ilre, is sold by C. Watson, at 4s. per gallon.
Contracts given for Chapels and Public Buildings.
TO GLASS MANUFACTURERS AND OTHERS.

TJ BE YLET (with Immediate Possession), an
Old-established Glass Manufactory, which has hitherto been
used and known as the " RAVENIIEAD FLINT GLASS WORKS,"
containing two glass-houses, cutting-shop, steam engine, manager's
residence, cottage, stabling, and other buildings, &c., attached; pos-
sessing facilities for manufacturing either flint, crown, German sheet,
plate, or bottle glass, and the whole being peculiarly well adapted for
carrying on an extensive and lucrative business.
The premises are situated near St. Helen's, where they have been
established for a period of 23 years and upwards, and are contiguous
to coal mines, and to canal and railway, and distant onr 12 miles
from Liverpool ; affording unusual advantages in obtaining materials,
and in the transit, sale, and export of the manufactured goods.
Terms and other particulars, and permission to view, may be had
on applying either personally or by (pre-paid) letter, to Mr. Bell, or to
JOAN ANSDELL, Solicitor, St. Helen's.
