CHEAP LIGHT.

EDWARD PRICE and CO., Patentees and Sole
Manufacturers of the COMPOSITE CANDLES, respectfully
call the attention of the Public to the fact, that, although the price of
these Is somewhat higher than that of ordinary mould Candles, they
are in reality much cheaper than these latter; one real Composite
Candle giving about the seine quantity of light as three of the moulds.
They require no snuffing, and burn more brilliantly than the best
wax. The purposes of economy and luxury are therefore both served
at the same time by the use of these Candles. Parties intending to
try them for the first time, are earnestly requested to take care that
they are served in the shops with " PRICE'S PATENT CANDLES:"
the reason fur this caution is given elsewhere.

They are sold by most of the respectable tallow chandlers through-
out the kingdom, and wholesale to the trade by Edward Price and
Co., Belmont, Vauxhall ; and by Palmer and Co., Sutton-street,
Clerkenwell.

The plan of this Office will be found to comprise all the solid ad-
♦antages of Life Assurance.

A meeting was held last night at the Temperance
Hall, in the Blackfriar's-road, in order to obtain sub-
scriptions in aid of the fund which is in the course of
collection for the purpose of relieving the embar-
rassments of the Rev. Mr. Mathew, into which hp
has fallen in consequence of the sacrifices incurred
by him in his successful efforts to encounter the
baneful effects of intemperance amongst large classes
not only of his own countrymen, but also of natives
of England. The handbill which announced the
meeting contained the following energetic appeal :
" Irishmen, Englishmen, rally round the great moral
regenerator of his own nation and people, and the
benefactor of man in every country. Uphold and
prove your gratitude to the man who has generously
sacrificed his time and his fortune to emancipate his
fellow-creatures of every creed and country from the
horrid slavery of intemperance. Come, therefore,
and make a sacrifice to support him."
On the motion of Mr. F. O'Comcon,
Mr. BUCKINGTIAM took the chair, and announced
the object of the meeting. He exhorted those pre-
sent to assist in forwarding the great purpose for
which they were assembled. He presumed that the
reason why he had been elected to fill the chair was,
that he had been a coadjutor of Father Mathew in
much of his labours both in Ireland and this country,
and was thus enabled to speak on his behalf both as
a witness and an advocate. Many persons of greater
importance might have been appointed to the post
to which he had been called, but none who knew
better the character of the man to whom he had to
refer, and in doing so he should confine himself to the
most strictly truthful representations. Having ad-
verted to the general prevalence of intemperance in
the British islands until of late years, and borne tes-
timony to the invaluable services of Mr. Mathew in
eradicating the evil in some quarters, and greatly
mitigating it in others, Mr. Buckingham, in illus-
tration of the extent of the evil and the necessity of
checking it, stated that the amount of the premature
deaths from drunkenness in these kingdoms was not
less than 60,000 a year. He then described the
origin and progress of the temperance movement,
interspersing the narrative with a variety of appro-
priate statistical details. He passed a high eulo-
gium upon Father Mathew for his zeal, disin-
terestedness, and enthusiasm in the cause, and ac-
coanted for the pecuniary embarrassments in which
he is involved, by explaining that he had sacrificed
large sums of money in supporting and ministering
to the wants of those pilgrims of temperance who re-
sorted to his house from remote distances. This, and
the expense of the temperance medals, which lie dis-
tributed gratuitously in large numbers, and of the
foundation of temperance halls, and the establishment
of temperance bands, and other measures which were
necessary to perpetuate the great regeneration which
he had originated, but which occasioned a large ex-
penditure, for which he was responsible, had placed
him in his present difficulties. Ihe result of Father
Mathew's efforts was that 5,000,000 out of 8,000,000
of people were made converts to temperance. 'What
was that worth ? He did nothesitate to say 5,000,0001.
sterling at the least—there being 1,500,000 of tee-
totallers in England and Scotland, and
5,000,000 in Ireland. This was a benefit
far greater than the emancipation of the negroes, for
which we had paid 20 millions of money. He could
not think that there would be any difficulty in raising
a sum of money sufficient, not only to relieve Mr.
Mathew from his difficulties, but to provide for him a
handsome annuity, when he reflected upon a calcula-
tion which had been made, and which proved that a
sum of a penny a month, from every teetotaller in
the three kingdoms, would createa fund of 250,0001.
a-year. After another handsome tribute to the exer-
tions of Mr. Mathew, the Chairman called upon
Mr. Punvis to move the first resolution, which
consisted of a declaration of the great value of Father
Mathew's services, and the justice of rescuing him
from the straits in which his benevolence and philan-
thropy had alone placed him. Mr. Purvis announced
his own readiness to contribute five guineas for the
purpose. The resolution was appropriately seconded,
and earnestly responded to (even before it was for-
mally adopted) by the eager liberality of those pre-
sent, who flocked in crowds to deposit their contribu-
tions in a plate prepared to receive them.
Mr. F. O'Cosiszoa supported the resolution, and
said that the support of Father Mathew was incum-
bent not only upon teetotallers, but also upon every
man who drank a drop, and ever. upon ,the drunkard
11114e1f., then expressed his 'satisfaction 'at the
change which Mr. Buckingham had described as
having taken place,-in his country, and stated that in
the course of his former practice at the bar in Ireland,
which had not been slight, he had never been called
upon to defend a sober managaiiist an impeachment
for crime. If the 5,000,000 in Ireland would sub-
scribe a penny a week each, it would amount to up-
wards of a million sterling a year. Father Mathew
had given ears, eyes, and comprehension to Ireland.
He thanked God that drunkenness was now the ex-
ception in that country, where it had hitherto been
the rule. He then called upon the meeting to be
liberal in their efforts in support of the temperance
martyr, and invoked them with the pithy sermon of
Dean Swift:—" He that giveth to the poor lendeth
to the Lord. If you like your security, down with
your dust."
The resolution was unanimously adopted, as were
also some others, which were introduced with speeches
in furtherance of the object ; and a considerable col-
lection was made on the spot. A committee was ap-
pointed to keep the subscription books open till the
end of the year.

Persons have the option of Insuring upon the Return or Non-
Return Systems ; and tho Tables have been formed to salt the
convenience of all parties.
The Rates have recently been reduced agreeably to the most ap-
proved calculations ; they are also verified by the experience of the
Ofilce during forty years, are as lolvstag consistent with safety ; those
adapted to the RETURN SYSTEM entitle its assured to au equitable
participation in the surplus premium, according to the plan detailed
in the Company's Prospectus.

The Issu'red under both Systems will possess the gusranteo of a
large Paid-np Capital, and the further security of a responsible body
of Proprietors, without being exposed to the liabilities of partnership.
Policies are purchased on liberal :terms when the object of an
assurance is effected ; or, loans will be granted thereon to the extent
of five-sixths of such purchase-money.

happily attained by the invention of two parallel flat rings—a larger
and a smaller forming a cone round the margin of the wiek, which
cause a rapid reverberation of air against the flame—thus condensing
every particle of volatilized vapour, It is free from smoke or smell,
having perfect combustion, and in full action, emits a light equal to

RAILWAY CONVERSATION.
" Two gentlemen" met in the Liverpool train,
And of humour they seemed to possess a rich vein ;
Their converse partook of the news of the day,
And questions and answers quite filled up the way;
They talk'd of the weather, the crops, and the trado,
And versatile talent they quickly display'd.
They talk'd of Prince Albert, the Queen, and her trip,
And mercantile matters they likewise let slip:—
" Oh 1 Hyam," said one, without question or doubt,
" Is firmly establlsb'd all England throughout ;
For at Birmingham, Liverpool, London, and Leeds,
I hear that his system bravely succeeds;
Whilst Manchester, Bristol, and Glasgow likewise,
Are daily the scenes of his mighty supplies!"
" 'Tis strange," said the other, "and hard to believe,
What efforts like his can attempt to achieve;
And the ' mind' that can wield such a mighty design,
Is worthy the favours the public assign!
Why the men he employs in his vast occupation,
To Ten Thousand amount at a fair estimation I
And full Sixty Thousand depend for support
On these popular places of fame and resort I"
The fact is established beyond contradiction,
And must bring to all a most certain conviction,
That Hyam derives every chance that arises,
And proves he can sell at one-half the trade prices
3,000 Waterproof Wrappers, of the most fashionable materials,
revs As. 6d. each.

" The various positions of Lover, Husband, and Parent, the in-

through the follies and frailties of early indiscretions. To such,
among others, this Essay addresses itself; and by its perusal many
questions'may be satisfactorily adjusted that admit of no appeal even
to the most confidential friend."—Stafford Gazette.
" Long experience in the treatment of a class of diseases hitherto
neglected and most imperfectly understood by the great bulk of the
medical profession, has enabled the writer to prove that there are
concealed causes of Nervous Debility in existence, where the were
routine practitioner would never dream of finding them; trace.ole
to certain habits, forming the most secret, yet deadly, and foal
springs of domestic misery, and premature mortality."—Wakefield

GRIMSTONE'S EYE SNUFF.—Under the
Patronage of his late Majesty, her Royal Highness the
Duchess of Kent, and the Lords of the Treasury, is universally re-
commended by the Faculty for its efficacy in removing disorders
incident to the Eyes and Head.
SIGHT RESTORED!—NERVOUS HEADACHE AND
DEAFNESS CURED!
By the most simple, delightful, and fragrant Compound!
Its mode of application is fraught with pleasure; many thousand
cures have been accomplished by its use, at a trifing expense, yet
certain in its operation. If testimonies be necessary to induce the
sufferer to snake trial, Kings, Lords, and Commons have used It.
The Lords of the I reasury have sanctioned Its use. Their late Ma..
jesties, the Dustless of Kent, the most eminent Oculists, Medical
Practitioners--with that gigantic balance, the Press—have eulogised
Grimstone's celebrs.ted Herbaceous Compound, known as " Grim.
stone's Eye Snuff," for its efficacy in removing all diseases incident
to the Eves and Head. G. J. Guthrie , Esq., F.R.S. See J. B. Lach-
field, Fig.'s Letter, Whitehall. Dr. Thomas. Dr. Andrews calls it
a national blessing—see his Reports touching its utility. The late
Mr. Aberneth with many others, recommend GriMStollo/ Eye
Snuff, and call y,
it " Man's best Friend," and the "Student's Vade
Mecum."
Dr. Andrews also recommends its use as a preventive. See his
reports in Nov. 1831. He states that the tenacious sympathy of the
membrane, within the nostrils, with the nervous systera, that Grim-
stome's Eye Snuff, when frequently taken, must be of the greatest
benefit to the consumer; and, !lather, recommends its universal
adoption as a preventative.
Dr. Thomas, of Hatfield, having witnessed many cases both a
headache and ophthalmia, has kindly given his testimony thereof.

SOUTHAMPTON—MONDAY.
The Peninsular and Oriental Company's steamer
Royal Tar, Captain R. Gasson, arrived at this port at
eleven o'clock, A.K., bringing mails from Gibraltar,
Cadiz, Lisbon, Oporto, and' Vigo. Her dates of
departure are as follow :—From Gibraltar the 10th
instant; Cadiz, the 11th ; Lisbon, the 13th; Oporto,
the 14th ; and Vie, the 15th.
The following is the only news from Lisbon :
Costa Cabral's career is now a succession of triumphs.
On Saturday last he gained a victory in the Chamber
of Peers, where the question regarding the use
made by the Government of the discretionary
powers intrusted to it in February last was
decided in favour of Ministers by thirty-seven votes
to twelve. This, however, was not the grand ques-
tion; for as.no express limits were set to the conces-
sion, it would be hard to prove the alleged excessl)e-
-yond a line which was never clearly marked out, and
accordingly the Duke of Palmella, and several other
Opposition Peers, voted with the Government on the
occasion. The really important subject of debate is
that which is to come on next—namely, the Bill of In-
demnity for the unconstitutional acts performed by
the Government after the cessation of the discre-
cretionary powers. On that grant, it is expected, that
Palmella and his party will make a most determined
stand— Nevertheless it is pretty certain, that there,
too, the Ministry will hare a majority; though pro-
bably a much smaller one than that which they have
just gained.

H We regard the work before us,'' The Silent Friend,' as a
work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of corn.
plaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of
the Medical profession, for what mums we are at a loss to know.
Wemust, however, confess that a perusal of this work has left such
a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend,
but cordially wish every one who is the victim of past folly, or suffer-
ing from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pktges.,.

The Authors of ' The Silent Friend,' seem to be thoroughly
conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we
fear, too prevalent in the present day. The perspicuous style in
which this book is written, and the valuable hints it conveys to
those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot
fail to recommend it to a careful perusal."—Era.

SUICIDE FROM DOMESTIC DIFFERENCES: An in-
quest was held last evening, at the Black Lion, Water-
lane, Fleet-street, before Mr. Payne, on the body of
of Anne Duck, aged 48, who destroyed herself with
poison. Elizabeth Duck said that the deceased was her
mother, and resided with her, her father, and her sister,
at No. 1, Britton's-court. Deceased was very unhappy,
and witness knew no other cause for her unhappiness
than the quarrels she had with her husband. On many
occasions, when suffering from his ill-treatment, she had
taken poison, and on Sunday week she made a vow that,
if he did not come home in a peaceable manner, she
should not live another Sunday. On Sunday morning
last her husband came home, and the first thing he said
to her was, " How about the lawyer," in allusion to his
having been bound over to keep the peace towards her
some time previous. 'Witness, while sitting up in bed
shortly afterwards, waiting for deceased to come to her,
heard her draw the cork from a bottle, and believing that
she had drank poison, got out of bed to see. Shen then
found two phials, both of which smelt of laudanum. Wit-
ness got her hot water to try and make her vomit, but find-
ing that ineffectual, she went by her father's advice for a sur-
geon. She heard the deceased say that she had taken
eight pennyworth of laudanum. Her father was a waiter
at the Half Moon, Borough, but contributed nothing to
the support of the family. He frequently beat her.
Police-constable 327 said that be had frequently been
called upon to quell disturbances between deceased and
her husband. The husband he often heard use towards
her the most disgusting language. Mr. Keasley, assistant
to Mr. Day, surgeon, of Salisbury-square, said that,
while administering emetics to the deceased, she begged
to be left to die, saying that she wished the Almighty
would tako her. Notwithstanding all his efforts she sunk
and died from the effects of the laudanum. She told
him that she had become possessed of the poison by
purchasing a pennyworth at a time. Stephen Duck, the
husband, said that the unhappy differences between him
and his wife commenced a year ago, when he found her
inconstant to the marriage vow. Two sons of the de-
ceased said that, ever since their childhood, the deceased
and her husband had been in the habit of quarrelling

that it might be considerable.—Liverpool Albion of

THE LATE SWINDLING AFFAIR.
(From the Birmingham Journal.)
On Wednesday a number of respectable tradesmen
who had been swindled by the blind man, of whose
nefarious transactions we gave an account last week,
came before the magistrates (Messrs. Shaw and Nel-
son), for the purpose of detailing their grievances, and
laying, if possible, a foundation for the arrest of the
gang by whom they had been robbed.
The first gentleman who presented himself was Mr.
W. Arnold, solicitor, of Bennett's-hill, who stated that
he applied for a warrant against a blind man, named
Rice, and his accomplice, Joliffe, who had lately been
practising upon him and numerous attorneys and
tradesmen in the town. Indeed, he believed some of
the oldest and most respectable practitioners had been
defrauded by the swindlers, although they were
rather ashamed to come forward. He, however, felt
no difficulty about the matter ; and, considering that
it was his duty to aid in detecting and punishing
such persons, he should state the facts of his case, and
ask for a warrant against the parties. The week
before last Rice, who was a blind man, accompanied
by a youth of most respectable appearance, called at
his office, presented his card, and stated that he was
recommended to him by Mr. Smith, of New-street, a
friend of his (Mr. Arnold's). After a few words,
Rice told him that he wished him to write to a man
named Joliffe, of the Aston-road, for a debt of
63/. 10s. He accordingly wrote, and in a day
or two after Joliffe e.alled at his (Arnold's) office, and
expressed his great regret that Mr. Rice should have
proceeded against him, particularly as he did not owe
all the money sued for. He (Mr. Arnold) then agreed
to accept 581. on the Monday following, in discharge
of the debt due to Rice; and Joliffe was about to
leave, when he expressed himself very grateful for
the kind manner in which the debt had been reduced,
and begged him (Mr. Arnold) to accept a guinea for
his trouble, which he, of course, declined to do, and
Joliffe left the office. On the onday following Rice
called again, and, on being informed of the arrange-
ment made with Joliffe, he appeared quite delighted,
observing that he never really expected to have re-
covered the money. He then proceeded to say that
he had advanced Joliffe 301. upon some deeds, and
being short of cash he had assigned the deeds to
another party, at Coventry, for 20/., and had not then
the money to redeem the writings previously to their
being delivered up to Joliffe on Monday. He then
asked him (Mr. Arnold) if he could advance him 201.,
and the latter replied he would if he had so much in
his desk, but opening it he found he had only 101.
Rice immediately said that would do for the present,
as he could borrow the remainder from some friend,
upon which he handed him the money, and took his
I 0 U for the amount, and the boy attested it.
The money and deeds were to be delivered on
Saturday, the latter to be given up to Joliffe en Mon-
day, when he paid the 581. Before leaving the office,
Rice expressed himself deeply grateful to Mr. Arnold
for the accommodation, and, as a small recompense
for his trouble, begged his acceptance of 3/. 3s. This
offer he refused, saying that it was unprofessional
to accept of any consideration of the kind, and Rice
then left the office. On Saturday he was hourly ex-
pecting Mr. Rice with the money and deeds, but the
gentleman not arriving, he (Mr. Arnold) was be-
ginning to wonder, when he took up the Birmingham
Journal, and his eye caught a paragraph headed
"A New Way to Raise the Wind; the Lawyers
Outwitted ;" and thinking it something strange for
those honourable gentlemen to be done, he read the
article, and soon perceived that he himself was one
out of a number of the professional gentlemen who
had been swindled. Under these circumstances he
applied for a warrant against Rice and his associate,
as there could be no doubt they had been acting
in concert.
Mr. W. Hall said there were several other per-
sans in the town who had been swindled, but he could
not get them to the office, as they did not like to ap-
pear under the circumstances. The parties then left
the Court.
We have received several communications from
gentlemen in London and elsewhere, who have recog-
nised in Mr. Rice, from the case reported by us last
week, an old acquaintance. One of our correspon-
dents, a sufferer, who dates his note from the Par-
thenon Club, Regent-street, informs us that the
blind man, when practising in town, went by the
name of "C. Radley, tailor, 13, Hatfield-street,
Stamford-street, Borough," and his accomplice by
the name of " Charles Portlock Attwood, of Eltham,
Kent." Another correspondent, a professional gen-
man, who, we have no doubt, was also victimised,
says he can furnish a clue to the discovery and ap-
prehension of the scoundrels, should any measures be
determined upon for bringing them to justice. This
gentleman's address we shall be happy to furnish, if

JERSEY ROYAL COURT--
WEDNESDAY.
(From the Jersey Times.)
WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS-IN RR C. C. WILSON.
The Attorney-General read a report signed " J. P.
De Ste Croix, Depute-Vicomte, wherein it was
stated that on Monday last Mr. J. Kandich, Governor
of her Majesty's gaol in this island, was served with
a copy of a writ of habeas corpus, emanating from the
Court of Queen's Bench, ordering the said Kandich
immediately to bring before that tribunal the body of
Charles Carus Wilson, at this moment a prisoner for
contempt of Court. The writ was served by Colonel
Davidson, who at the same time tendered a Bank of
England note for 51., being the amount of expenses
allowed by Mr. Justice Patteson, and endorsed on
the writ.

The Attorney-General then went on to observe,
that in several charters, granted by various Sove-
reigns of England, it was expressly stipulated that
no summons, or order, from any of the Courts at
'Westminster ran in this island. His Majesty George
111. ordered all Acts haying force of law in this island
to be registered, for the better information of his sub-
jects in these islands. The Habeas Corpus Act had
never been sent for registration until the year 1832,
when it was transmitted to both Jersey and Guernsey;
but the States, fearing this would encroach on their
privileges, sent deputies to London, who made such
representations as induced the Government at that
period to abandon the subject without pressing for
the registration. The charters of Queen Elizabeth
and of James 11. assured to the authorities of the
island of Jersey full power in all judicial matters.
In the latter, more particularly, it was stated—
as he would show the Court—that they were fully
empowered to treat all causes, "personal, mixtes,
pecuniary, criminal, and capital, wherein a native
was concerned, and that without any interference,
summons, writ, letter, warrant, or order from any
tribunal in Great Britain, except in those cases where
his Majesty or his successors reserve to themselves
the right of hearing and deciding any appeal made to
them from the judgments of the jurats, said causes
to be treated according to the laws, customs, and
usages of the island, all orders, warrants, or sum-
monses from any other court notwithstanding ; the
natives not being compelled to answer such orders,
warrants, or summonses, but being allowed to rest in
quiet to await justice in their court without fear of
fine or penalty for contempt or contumacy." The
Learned Gentleman concluded by remarking, that in
consequence of what had taken place on Monday,
and considering the importance of the subject as re-
garded the privileges and immunities of the islands,
he would move the Court to take the matter into
their serious deliberation and consideration and to
resist the writ, at the same time grounding their
judgment on the documents he had quoted and on all
other such as had bearing on the question at issue.
Of these there was a great number to read at present,
but he would show that at a later period, when the
code of 1771 was confirmed, these charters were as-
serted and the plenary powers granted to this tribunal
recognised. In fact, all the Sovereigns had, if not
added to, at least confirmed them.
The Bailli observed, that as this writ would
seriously militate against our privileges, it was de-
serving of serious and mature consideration. The
subject being of an important nature, he thought
the judges had better retire in order to consult
together.

—All the judges present concurring in the Presi-
dent's opinion retired, with the exception of Mr. E.
Nicolle, who stated that his opinion was already
formed, and he did not think it necessary to retire.
After a deliberation which lasted exactly three
hours and a quarter the jurats returned, and, after
silence had been restored, the clerk of the Court read
their decision, which was of a very lengthy nature,
embodying the substance of the various charters and
the constitution of King John, by which the judges
of this Royal Court, in conjunction with twelve
itinerant English justicera or judges, are pronounced
a sufficient tribunal, from whose decisions lay no
appeal but to the Sovereign. On the authority of all
those various documents, and considering that the
said C. C. Wilson could, if he thought himself in-
jured by the judgment given against him, have it re-
examined by presenting a remonstrance, and, if not
satisfied then, could appeal by doleance to her Ma-
jesty in Council, the Court ordered the gaoler to take
no notice whatever of the said writ of habeas corpus,
and expressed it as their opinion that Justice Patte-
son had been deceived respecting the question of
jurisdiction.

- All the jurats approved of the written judgment.
Jurat E. Nicolle, in giving his opinion, said that the
Bailli, forming part of the deputation sent in 1832,
must necessarily know what was said by Government
on the subject.
The Bailli—They abandoned it.
Jurat E. Nicolle—Then I presume the Adminis-
tration of 1844 will do the same as that of 1832. 1
did not think it was necessary for the Court to notice
the matter. This case will, of course, set the matter
at rest as to whether the writ doth or doth not run.

-

A TYRANT OF THE NINETEENTH

CENTURY.
The almost daily accounts from South America
bring fresh news of the atrocities of a monster who,
it would scarcely he imagined, existed in the nine-
teenth century. General Rosas, the Dictator of the
Argentine Republic, still continues his work of blood
and destruction. The last packet has conveyed
strong remonstrances to the Earl of Aberdeen on this
subject; and the British resident at Monte Video
has addressed a very eloquent appeal to the Foreign
Minister, setting forth the dangers to which the
English mercantile and other interests are exposed
' by the permissive policy as it were, indulged iA with
regard to the Dictator. From the time that Rosas
first appeared as a public man to the time at which we
write, he has, it would appear, been guilty of the
_ massacre of thirty thousand souls—to say nothing of
' probably an equal number who have been fonced,
through his despotic proceedings, to take refuge in
strange lands. In the year 1836, Roses, after the
Royalist party had yielded to the patriot brothers,
determined to strike terror into the minds of the ins-
, habitants, and he caused to be brought from the con•
fines of the province, a tribe of Indians who had be-
' come his prisoners. On their passage they endea-
voured to escape, when, without regard to trial, of
any other ceremony, and with no respect for age or
sex, one hundred of these poor wretches, fathers,
mothers, and children under nine years of age, were
butchered in the very streets of Buenos Ayres. They
were brought from their'prisons in groups of ten or
twelve, and shot by platoons of soldiers—and many
who were merely wounded, fled who endeavoured to
crawl away, were dragged back, had their throats
cut, and their brains beat out, and afterwards left as
food for the dogs and swine of the city. In 1839, Dr.
Vincent Maza, the President of the National As.
sembly, and second magistrate of the city, was ausase
sinated in his private apartment in the House of
Representatives, at seven in the evening. He was
the intimate friend of the Governor, and htd been
heard to say that the knowledge of the waylaying
and massacre of General Quiroga and escort would
cost him his life. Two days after, the son of Maza
being suspected, by Rosas, of conspiracy, he was
arrested, and eventually followed the fate of his
father—the two bodies being afterwards cast into a
dung-cart, and thrown amongst those of other victims.
The widow and survivors of the Maza family was
even forbidden to wear mourning, or to perform any
rites and ceremonies in their church, for the victimg
Numerous other crimes, too horrible for detail,
could be enumerated—all of which are attributable
to this vile Republican adventurer ; yet such a man is
allowed, in the face of Europe, to pursue his career
of bloodshed and murder, unmolested !
The conduct of our agent, Mr. Mandeville, which
is extremely vacillating, is loudly and generally con-
demned, and appears to excite much indignation
amongst the English residents, especially when cosh-
pared with the noble conduct of his predessor, Mr.
Hamilton Hamilton, who, not many drYs after his
arrival, applied to the British Government to be re-
moved from the scene of Rosas' Dictatorship, as he
deemed any communication with him derogatory to
his honour and the principles of our national policy.
It is to be hoped, however, that the vigilance of Com-
modore Purvis, who is in command of our fleet in
these seas, will speedily place matters on a betl4
footing, and the confidence reposed in him appatentry
by the residents would seem to mark him as a fit-pro-
tector for our merchants. He is decidedly averse to
Rosas ; and probably, but for the countenance the
Dictator receives at the hands of Mr. Mandeville, that
inhuman dealer in horrors would, ere this, have been
deprived of the means of effecting further mischief.—

THE SLAVE TRADE.
(From th6-Devonpprt 7'legra,Rll)

Extract' from a letter from her Majesty s ship
Hyacinth, 18, dated August 27, 1844 :—Our orders
have been to look after slaves, examining every sail
coming in our way, and to detain every suspicious
vessel. While on the south coast the boats have been
dispatched four times, fourteen days each time,
cruizing close along shore examining every sail. Up
to the 13th, no shots were fired in earnest, but only
"in a quiet way, desiring them to heave t 0."... One
vessel had been detained by the Hyacinth, and she
having several Government guns with some English
prisoners on board, &c., was sent into Loando for
trial at court, but acquitted, owing, I believe, (but of
course this is but a matter of my own opinion), to
our English Consul having committed suicide, while
delirious from fever, fourteen days before. She was
called the Flir de Fago. On the 12th of August, Mr.
Tottenham, the mate, was sent in the second Fig,
with four hands to pull in shore, and reconnoitre
close in until he arrived at Fish Bay. On the
13th he saw a vessel at some distance, near
the land. He immediately " gave way" towards
her—when he got within musket shot be fired
a gun, in order to make her heave to. No
notice, however, was taken of this, the vessel keeping
her way without altering a sail. Mr. Tottenham
continued firing, and it being nearly a calm, ge
gained rapidly on her, and when within a hundred
yards, he was not a little surprised at noticing the
people on board busy in hoisting a large gun on the
poop, and directing the same at his boat. Several
muskets were also discharged at him. Thinking it
was now time for him to do something, he deliberately
aimed at every head he saw above the gunwale. At
length he succeeded in getting alongside, and all the
crew of the vessel shoved off on the other for the
shore, which was not 200 yards distant. As he anti
his crew got on deck, one fellow leaped over and
swam ashore. Mr. Tottenham immediately took pos-
session of the vessel, and found only one man ther
who was dreadfully wounded—he died within forty
hours after on board the Hyacinth, which anchored in
Port Alexander, the bay where the engagement took
place. The prize turns out to be a very fine brig, of
190 tons, called the Aventuraro. The captain, with
18 men, after fighting for three hours, ran his vessel
on shore and deserted' her. Fearful odds, five to
nineteen ! The conduct of Mr. Tottenham deserves,
as it will no doubt receive, its reward.

MULTIPLICITY OF STREETS SIMILARLY NAMED.
—The following occurrence will, it is imagined, show
,be extreme folly of having so many streets in the me-
tropolis of the same name :—A few nights ago, a girl,
about sixteen years of age, named Caroline Brown, a
native of Reading, and who was staying at the house of
her uncle, Mr. Sabberton, 5, George-street, Bagnigge-
wells-road, was sent out upon an errand, but, not re-
turning for several hours after, her uncle became
alarmed, and gave information at the Clerkenwell police-
station, having in vain endeavoured, after many hours'
search, to discover her. It appeared, at length, that the
poor girl, who is of rather weak intellect, had wandered
about, and that she was found crying on the step of a
door, in George-street, Portman-square. She was taken
to the station-house, when Inspector Tudman sent her,
in company of a constable, to no less than five George-
streets, at none of which was she known. The inspector
kindly procured a lodging for her at a coffee-shop for
the night, 'and in the morning she was restored to her
uncle, whose address was at last ascertained.
CORONER'S INQUEST.—SUICIDE.—Yesterday after-
noon a jury was impannelled before Mr. William Carter,
coroner for East Surrey, at the Rose and Crown, Long-
lane, Bermondsey, to inquire into the circumstances at-
tending the death of Mr. William Jonathan Pragnall,
aged 35 years, a master brass-finisher, carrying on int
extentenaive business at 98, Long-lane, who committed
suicide :—Mr. -Robert Tremaine, of 23, White-street,
Borough, said, that ii consequence of information he re-
ceived on Friday last, he was induced to go todeceased's
house. He there found him in bed and apparently in
great agony. lie appeared perfectly sensible and knew
witness, who asked him if he had taken anything ? De-
ceased replied that he had swallowed a large quantity of
arsenic and corrosive sublimate Messrs. Wagstaffe and
other medical gentlemen were called in, and did all that
the nature of the case would would permit, but deceased
died at four o'clock the following morning. John Wise,
the sexton of Bermondsey, said he saw deceased on Fri-
day last ; he was then in a very excited state, and he
said that what he had taken was owing to the miscon
duct of his wife. Mr. Sharp, a surgeon, was sent for,
but that gentleman believing he had not taken poison,
nothing was then given to him, and Mr. Gibson advised
him to return home and live comfortably with his wife.
Deceased and his wife walked away together, apparently
reconciled to each other. Miss Caroline Tremaine said
she saw the deceased alive on Friday afternoon last. He
then called at her brother's, whom he asked to see. On
witness telling him that her brother was out, he replied,
" I am sorry for that, for he will never see me alive
again." He afterwards shook hands with witness and
her sister, saying as he left, " Good bye, God bless you
both, lam now off to my long home." lie also alluded
to his wife's sniscondnct, and said he had taken poison
because he could bear it no longer. Verdict, Tem-
porary insanity."
COLLUSION or VESSELS.—The ship George, Capt.
Roberts, from St. Vincent, arrived in Kingroad late on
Wednesday night, during a heavy gale of wind from
S.S.E., having during the day lost two anchors and
