DIATE DISTRICT.

BIRMINGIiAM, WEDNESDAY, TWELYN, F. M.
Thanks to the wise and timely precaution of the au-
thorities, this town remains in quietness, although
several efforts have been made to excite distruat in the
minds of the well-disposed and timid yart of the po-
pulation. Nightly meetings 'are being held, which
generally break up at nine or ten o'clock, but strong
squadrons of police are in attendance, and the horse
patrol have directions to scour the neighbourhood.
To-night there has been a very unhealthy state of
excitement, perceptible in the various thoroughfares ;
many of the police were hissed as they went on duty,
and numbers of the mendicant colliers are at this very
time lying out in., the streets. We: know that the
authorities are apprehensive of an outbreak, but we
are also certain that an hour from its commencement
will see its utter suppression.

recommended by a miscreant ottthe name of Ellis to

Several of the omnibus drivers have again been
stopped, and in other cases attempts have been made
to pillage the coaches, but the district is well supplied
with constabulary. A strong party of the London
police have arrived at the scene of the disturbances.

IN RE THOMAS BURGESS.

The insolvent, who was described as a solicitor
in Lambeth-road, applied to be liberated on bail.
Mr. Thompson, of Chancery-lane, the officer fur
the Sheriffs of London and Middlesex, appearing him-
self as one of the bail, a point was raised, which was
finally over-ruled. •
Bail being allowed to justify, the insolvent was
liberated until the day appointed for his hearing.

POREIGIV.

• In consequence of the fete of Assumption on Mon-
day, only a few of the French Journals were pub-
lished on Tuesday, and in these there is nothing of
real importance, either as regards news or comment.
Extract of a letter from the Hague, dated 12th
instant : " The long talked of Royal decree, ordain-
ing that certain corps of the Dutch army shall take
the denomination of the federal contingent of Lim-
burg, is at last issued. They are to consist of a
battalion of infantry, a squadron of dragoons, and a
company of artillery, all of whom are, as far as
possible, to be composed of men originally volun-
teers from the Duchy of Limburg. This decree
will probably become a subject of discussion in the
States General during its next session."
According to accounts from Hesse-Darmstadt, the
fortifications of Mentz are proceeding with great ra-
pidity, and on the most extensive scale. Several thou-
ssvad men are, it is said, engaged on the work.
The German Journal of Frankfort announces from
Munich that the Bavarian 3f per cent. public debt is
about to be paid off.

The Borsenhalle of Hamburgh contains a lette
from Faister (Denmark), Aug. 7, which states that a.
man of war, forming part of the Russian squadron
liow cruising in the Baltic, in which the Grand Duke
Constantine was to pass the Belt and the Cattegat,
had been signalised.—A letter -from Elsinore an-
nounces the arrival of a frigate with his Royal High-
ness on board.

It is stated from Athens, July 27, in the Leipsic
Gazette, that the Greek Government has sent 400,000 f.
to the house of Messrs. de Rothschild in Paris, to pay
the interest and a portion of the sinking fund of the
loan for the six months ending in August. It is
added that 200,000 f. more would be sent off by the
next packet.

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

THE Istcomu-Tax.—A Correspondent calls on us to
.give some explanation to our readers of the Income-
tax law, and of the papers which the Income-tax
gatherers are sending from hcuse to house. He wishes
•us to undertake an impracticable task., So many doubts
and difficulties belong both to the papers and the law,
that the 'opinion and advice of a practised barrister is
quite as likely to lead his clients astray as to guide
them safely. We should probably do 'more harm
. than good, therefore, by attempting to give an analysis
or explanation of a law, which, being like all laws, a
rgle of conduct, is confused, complicated, and almost
iromprehensible—equally a disgrace to the persons
who framed it, and to the people who feel themselves
compelled to submit to it.

HANTS.
A very compact and valuable LITTLE FARM, within one mile
of the Farnborough Station of the Loudon and South Wes-
tern Railway, one mile from Frimley, five from the Market
Town of Farnham, and thirty from London.
TurESSRS. DICKSON and BELL, have received
IN IL instructions to SELL by PUBLIC AUCTION, at
Garraway's, on TUESDAY, August 23, at One (unless an ac-
ceptable offer be previously made, of which due nonce will be
given ),
A very valuable and compact Little ESTATE, called
CLARK'S FARM, most advantageously situate as above,
coataining about 75a. oa. 12r., or thereabouts, of Arable
and Nteadow Land, in a ring-fence, about thir..y and a half
acres of which are Freehold, and the remainder Copyhold of the
Manor of Farnborough, with a very comfortable Farm-house,
built in the Elizabethan style, and ample Out-buildings, erected
a few years ago. The house contains four rooms, kitchen,
back kitchen, and dairy, and is so constructed as to render
it an easy matter to enlarge or remodel the same at a
trifling expense. The situation of the house is pleasant and
healthy, bring a short distance from the high turnpike-ro4d to
Farnham and Portsmouth, and the salubrity of the air is
proverbial. The I..nd is a light loam, and well adapted for the
growth of all kinds of white and green crops of superior qua-
lity. To a gentleman engaged in business in London, and fond
of agricultural pursuits, this little property offers great advan-
tage, being within an hour and a half's ride of the metropolis.
It is in the occupcion of a hig,h!y respectable tenant, whose
term expires at Miehvlmas, 1843. when a considerable ad-
vance of rent may be obtained. Arrangements for immediate
possession may made if required.
For further particulars and orders to view apply to Messrs.
Clarke, Fynmore, and Fiadgate, Solicitors, Craven-street,
Strand ; and Alessi s. Dickson and Bell, Surveyors and Land
Agent, 30, Bueklersbury, London.

WEST BROMW

CH.

WEDNESDAY, SEVEN P.M.—This district is involved
in a state of growing uneasiness, and there are serious
apprehensions entertained in various quarters for the
peace of the neighbourhood. Within the last few days
the colliers have attacked the Clay Cross works, and
endeavoured to restrain the men from working, and
early to-day two boats, laden with coal, which were
on their way to Birmingham, were sunk by the turn-
outs. It is said that at the present time there is
scarcely a fortnight's supply of coal in the entire dis-
trict ; and that at the works of Major llawkes, M.P.
for Dudley, who has a sufficiency for the next three
months, great fear is entertained that an attack will
be made, with a view to throw it into the canal and
pits adjacent.

BIRMINGHAM.

INVASION OF COVENTRY BY THE 'BED-

WORTH COLLIERS

WEDNESDAY, TWELVE O'CLOCK, P.M.—The colliers
and weavers from the neighbourhood of Bed worth and
Folesha eravred this city in the early part of this
morning, and were received with same appearance
of satisthetion by the disaffected part of the shop-
keepers and inhabitants. They were addressed by
Mr. Holmes, of Foleshill, who desired them to con-
duct themselves in a peaceable manner, and suggested
that, until five o'clock, they should retire to Swichal
Grove, about a mile from the city, where a Commit-
tee should he appointed to negotiate for "their rights."
It must be admitted that this proceeding tended
very much to relieve the uneasiness of the inhabitants;
but it has been thought necessary to keep the troops
in readiness during the whole o(the day.
At the time when our communication left, the
meeting had not commenced, and some doubt was en-
tertained whether the Magistrates would allow it to
take place. It was asserted by some that if the au-
thorities interfered, a riot would ensue. We should
not be astonished if the ribbon weavers join the turn -
Outs, and crate sorne,little confusion.

The Bishop of the diocese was most infamously in-
sulted by the mob as he passed through this morning
to hold his annual visitation. This, and the medi-
tated attack upon the churches in Staffordshire, is
one of the worst features of this insurrectionary
movement.

ELECTIONEERING.

NAVAL AND =LITANY.

At eight o'clock yesterday morning a detachment of
troops, consisting of about 800 men of different
regiments, arrived at Waterloo-bridge from Wool-
wich, by steamers, and immediately proceeded en
route for Bradford by the Birmingham Railroad.
The Master-General and Board -of Ordnance placed
ep Wednesday at the di3posal of the Hon. Artillery Corn-
pow of the City of London, for one day's practice in
the msi4rshes at Woolwich, three light six-pounder guns,
one heavy six-pounder gun, and one heavy three-
pounder gun. Firing was commenced at a target nine
feet square, at A, range of 700 yards. Fifteen rounds
were served out toaseh gun, and the firing was ex-
cellent, a great number of the balls entering the
target, some of them very near the bull's eye.

LEICESTER.

The stocking-makers in this district have all struck,
in .consequence, as it is alleged, of the masters exact-
ing full frame-rent for half a week's work.
Thousands of artisans (principally glove hands and
frame-Work knitters) are now parading the streets so-
liciting alms, which many individuals contribute from
a feeling of fear. They appear to belong to the
Chartists, as they sing the Chartist " hymn ;" a flag
is carried at the head of the body, with the motto
" Away with oppression, and justice instead." Two
meetings have been held in the market-place, and per-
sons have addressed the people upon the present de-
pressed state of trade, and calling upon the various
trades to unite for the purpose of obtaining a rise in
wages. The borough Magistrates are now (9 o'clock
p.m.) sitting at the Town-hall, ready to take any
proceedings that may he called for. The police, under.
the superintendence of Mr. Charters, are ordered to
be in readiness at any moment they may be cello I
upon, and not to leave the station upon any account.
Great excitement prevails in the town, and fears seem
to be entertained that some serious results will follow
this demonstration. -At ,the time of closing
our report no breach of the peace has been committed.
Work is plentiful in the town, but intimidation is
carried on to such an extent, that the masters of the
several factories dare not give. Out work. •

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

THE INCOME-TAX.—A Correspondent calls on us to
give some explanation to our readers of the Income-
tax law, and of the papers which the Income-tax
gatherers are sending from house to house. He wishes
us to undertake an impracticable task. So many doubts
and difficulties belong both to the papers and the law,
that the opinion and advice of a practise: barrister is
quite as likely to lead his clients astray as to guide
them safely. We should probably .do more harm
than good, therefore, by attempting to give an analysis
or explanation of a law, which, being like all laws, a
role of conduct, is confcsed, complicated, and almost
incomprehensible—equally a disgrace to the persons
who framed it, and to the people who feel themselves
compelled to submit to it.
London, England, 1842-08-19

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.

SR ,---Ifaving seen the indiscriminate attacks
which have been made on all Patent Medicines, by a
vin a weekly paper. without allowing that
see
great service to the public—such as Dr.
James's Powders, &e.
a vwriter,
ee
&c., which is frequently prescribed by the
first physicians in the country, and as I, as agent for the sale
of the LONDON RESTORATIVE am thereby classed with
;Yra alb '
have b o of
those pretender:, who can show no medical guarantee for the
safety a the public, nor the genuiness of their medicine. I
beg leave, therefore, respectfully to inform you, that the com-
position of the London Restorative is from the Recipe of Dr.
Thomas Buchanan, of Hull, Graduate, member of several
learned societies, author of several surgical works, papers, &c. ,
and whose publications are quoted by the mast celebrated pro-
fessional writers of the day.
It was owing to the repeated failures of the best medical
practitioners in Britain, in the treatment of several diseases,
that led to the discovery of the medicine sold by me as the '
London Restorative. Owing to the great expence incurred by
experiments &c., during upwards of twenty years, Dr. Bucha-
nan consulted a physician of the first talent in London, on the
subject, who advised him—" To dispose of the Medicine in
this form, until his expenses were reimbursed, and then to
throw it open to the profesion."
From the acknowledged talent and genius of Dr. Buchanan,
who, by his publications and practice, placed acoustic surgery
in the high station it now holds in Britain, the public may
safely rely on the- properties of any recipe of that very able
practitioner.--I remain, Sir, yours most respectfully,

MONEY MARKET and CITY NEWS

FROM THE MORNING PAPERS OF YESTERDAY.
TIMES.—The premium on gold at Paris is 8 per
mille, which, at the English Mint price of 3/. 17s. 101 d.
per ounce for standard gold, gives an exchange of
25 35k, and the exchange at Paris on London at short
being '25 47k, it follows that gold is 0.48 per cent.
dearer in London than in Paris.
By advices from Hamburgh the price of gold is
432 per mark, which, at the English Mint price of
3/. 17s. 10id. per ounce for standard gold, gives an
exchange of 13 Bf, and the exchange at Hamburgh
on London at short being 13 10, it follows that
gold is 0.68 per cent. dearer in London than in
Hamburgh.
The course of exchange at New York on London
is 106} per cent., and the par of exchange between
England and America being 109 23-40 per cent., it
follows that the exchange is 3.32 per cent. against
England ; but the quoted exchange at New York
being for bills at 60 days' sight, the interest must be
deducted from the above difference.

JUDGE FOSTER.--A short time before this great
lawyer's death, he went the Oxford Circuit in ono of the
hottest summers that had been remembered. His charge
to the Grand Jury was as follows :—" Gentlemen,—the
weather is extremely hot, I am very old, and you are
very well acquage4 with your duty practise it."

This was an action brought by Curlewis, the
fashionable tailor of Hanover-street, Hanover-square,
against Capt. Bulkley, for the sum of 71. 19s. Gd.,
being the balance of a bill for 371. 19s. Gd. delivered
by the plaintiff to the defendant, for sundry expensive
and fashionably made Taglionis, and other articles
of dress. Capt. Bulkley who had paid 301. on account,
resisted the payment of the balance on the
ground that the charge for the different articles were
enormous, particularly the charge of 121. 12s. for a
Taglioni, superbly made, braided, lined with silk, and
crowned with a splendid Genoa velvet collar. •
Mr. JAMES, who conducted the case on the behalf
of the plaintiff, called persons in the employ of several
eminent West-end tailors, and among them a penfou
in the service of the celebrated Stulz, all of whom
stated that in their opinion the charges made were
reasonable for the West-end.

Mr. Lucas, a solicitor, who conducted the case of
the Gallant Captain, called Mr. Thompson of Prince's-
street, Hanover-square, who stated that he considered
all the charges reasonable enough, with the exception
of the Taglioni, which he said he could make for nine
guineas and a half, and get a living.
A Juror.—Could you get such a profit upon that
is would enable you to pay the Income-tax.
Mr. Thompson.—l think I should be obliged to
charge a little higher in consequence of that.
The Under-Sheriff summed up, and the Jury re-
turned a verdict for the plaintiff, :for the full amount
claimed.

INSOLVENT DEBTOR'S COURT, Aug. Is.
Although the Court was occupied for a consider-
able time a few days back in hearing applications
for bail, most of which were disposed of by allowing
the insolvents to be at large until their hearing, yet
this day no less than 53 applications (of 'Which 32
were town cases) came before the Court.

WARRINGTON.

We have just learned from a respectable source
that no less than 83 prisoners have been arrested at
this place for rioting.

BOLTON.

A large mob assembled this morning at Lever, near
this town, for the purpose of turning out the hands,
when they were met by the Bolton troop of Lanca-
shire Yeomanry, and whilst a party of the mob were
engaged in an attempt to cut the water pipes from a
reservoir at the mill the Yeomanry surrounded them,
and took no less than 40 prisoners. The Magistrates
having read the Riot Act, expressed themselves de-
termined to put down any outbreak.

SPORTING REVIEW.

This Number contains two engravings—one, a
sketch of some red deer, with a fine mountain
back-ground; and the other, a representation of
Vauxhall, as it appeared twenty years ago. In
the fore-ground of this last, stands conspicuously
the immortal Simpson, who is bowing with his
accustomed bland dignity, to a party of ladies
and gentlemen. who have just made their appear-
ance under the orchestra. Among the literary
contents, is a lively description of Prince Al-
bert's deer-stalking in Perthshire, during his re-

THE FARMER'S MAGAZINE.

A good portrait of Earl Spencer, .who is well
known as a zealous patron_ot l3ritish agriculture,
embellishes this Number, Its collection of artir
cles upon every subject connected with the
farming interest, renders it of important utility to.
all who arc engaged or interested in agricolar
avocations. From one statement we learn that
the grand improvement in modern agriculture—
that which distinguishes it from the old—is.the
universal introduction and superior management
of green crops. So late as 1757, iu Scotland,
neither turnips, potatoes, nor any cultivated her-
bage formed any part of the agriculturist's sys-
tem. The culture of the turnip as a field-crop
in England, was begun only so lately as the
reigns of George I. and George 11., by Lord
Townsend and others.

SPORTING MAGAZINE.

Contains, this month, two engravings—one, a
portrait of Gazelle, an Arabian race-horse ; and
the other, a sketch of Prince Albert's beagle-
kennel. This last forms a very picturesque little
scene, being a sort of rustic cottage, situated in
a secluded spot of Windsor Great Park. The
literary contents are, as usual, devoted exclu-
sively to sporting matters.

SPORTSMAN,
There is here a very spirited likeness of the
celebrated race horse " Blue Bonnet," the
Winner of the Great St. Leger at Doncas er this
year. As a work of art, the engraving deserves
commendation. A Sketch of the Scenery in the
neighbourhaod of the Cumberland and West-
morland Lakes, by a writer who signs himself a
Madras Sportsman, is the best article to be
found among the literary contents.

NORTH OF ENGLAND MAGAZINE
There is a neatly-written historical essay in this
Number, entitled the " Men of the Revolution,'
in which a brief but correct sketch is given of
some of the most prominent characters who
figured in the troublous times of James the Se-
cond. The remaining articles are of the usual
calibre.

PICTORIAL SHAKSPEARE.
The present Part, which is the Forty-ninth, of
this admirable and well-digested edition of
Shakspeare, comprises the fifth number of a
biographical memoir of- the great dramatist, ac-
companied by several choice illustrations of the
scenery on the banks of the Avon. The Memoir,
which exhibits great pains-taking, is from the
pen of the editor, Mr. C. Knight.

THE NEW MOATHLY BELLE ASSEMBLEE.
The usual series of interesting tales, and
metrical pieces contribute their complement to
form an entertaining Number. Some picturesque
writing appears in several of the former, and an
attractive portrait of Edderline, one of Mr.
'Wordsworth's female heroines, forms a graceful
frontispiece.

THE LONDON JOURNAL AND•REPERTORY
OF PATENT INVENTIONS.
The patented improvements which appear in
this Number, chiefly relate to cotton and calico
manufactures, and the oil trade. Three patents
have been sealed, for refining and purifying the
latter product, either from the whale, cocoa-nut,
or palm. These also, as they enter into the com-
position of candles, are the subject of other im-
proved processes. Among others registered, the
most remarkable is one for preparing coppice-
wood, brambles, gorse, heath, and other fibrous
matter, of the nature of wood, for feeding
cattle, by reducing them to a fine powder, de-
stined to be mixed up in considerable quantities
with their ordinary fodder.

THE MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.

LIVERPOOL,. Nov. 1•
The eighth municipal election for sixteen new
officers to serve in the 'Town-council took place this
day, and has terminated in the return of thirteen
Tories and three Reformers.
BEVERLEY, Nov. I.—THREE O'CLOCK.
Six Liberal candidates were elected without oppo-
sition. The Tories durst not after their signal defeat
last year, show fight on this occasion. They have
lost four more seats in the Town-council, which now
consists of twenty Reformers and four Tories. A
procession is now
parading the town, accompanied
with banners and music, playing " 0, dear, what can
the matter be." In Beverley the accession of a Tory
Government has done wonders. The Tories are obliged
to acknowledge that 'their present Member of Par-
liament will have no chance at another election, and
that the return of two Liberals is certain.
BIRMINGHAM,
-Nov. 1.
Elections took place to-day in the various wards
for members of the Town-council, when nearly the
whole of the seats were manfully and successfully
contested by Complete Suffrage candidates. The old
Councillors who took the suffrage pledge were un-
opposed ; but all who refused were rejected by the
Association, and when they went to the poll com-
pletely defeated. It is certainly deemed a most im-
portant triumph; and I think it may be fairly taken as
a proof of the daily increasing power of Vie Asso.
ciation.

CONDITION OF TIIE POOR IN LAMBETII.-•-AD in-
quest was held yesterday before Mr. Carter, at the
Sea Lion, Sea Lion-street, New-cut, on the body of
Louisa Hart, aged five months. From the evidence
it appeared the-deceased went to bed with its parents,
costermongers, otw Wednesday night last, apparently
in good health, and the next morning the mother was
awakened by bearing it groan. Deceased died at six
o'clockthat morning. The mother could not account
for itsdeath, andsaid the only injury deceased received
was on the 3d of September, when she fell on the
pavement with the child in her arms, and the Batter re-
ceived a blow on the head. During the investigation the
B:,-rgcon complained of the excessive filth, the bad yen-
tihtti2u,. and the state of the sewers in the street in
which a,veased resided. It often happened that the
water-closets were overflowed to the extent'of three
or four inches, so that the lodgers were obliged to
cross the yard upon planks. The inhabitants of the
houses lived in a shocking state of filth. They were,
nearly all costermong
and it was no uncommon
thing for them to sleep the room in which crabs,
oysters, fish of other kinds, and vegetables, were kept
under the bed. He was afraid to enter one of .the
houses a few days ago, it was in
uch a dangerousstate. The Coroner said it was not
pssible to pre-
vent costermongers having what they sold ;31 the room
where they slept. He recommended any 'iner_sons
Who might feel aggrieved to represent the state ofthe
houses to a Magistrate, and indict the owners or oc-
cupiers of them for a nuisance. Verdict, " Died zeroed
an effusion of blood on the brain, but how caused
there was no evidence to show."
IMPORTANT TO HOY GROW ERS.—The Lords of the
Treasury- have directed that the hop grounds should
be assessed for the property and income-tax under the
general rule applioilble to other lands, and not under
the special 'rifle contained in schedule B, No. 8. The
assessment is, therefore, on all hop plantations io be
made at 7d. in the pound una,:r schedule A, and. 30.
under schedule B. The special rule above referred to
directed that the assessment under schedule B should
be estimated according to the rules in schedule D, and
the duty to be charged in such last-named schedule.
A similar allowance was granted under the former
Property-tax Act by a Treasury Minute of 15th of
July, 1 81 !J.—Kentish Gazette.
STATE OF liIRMINGHAM.—If what every one says
be true, thelpast has been, perhaps, the worst week of
trade which has been felt in this town. The corn-
plaints are almost general. There are few orders in
the warehouses. The men are daily being leSs em-
ployed,
money is consequently scarcer, and the :hop-
keepers can best tell their own tale. To add to the
gloom, the winter has set in with snow, cutting winds,
and pinching night footo.—/linnifislinni Jourlial•
