MAGAZINES —(CONCLUDED.)
UNITED SERVICE JOURNAL.
The most interesting article in the present
Number of this periodical, is a brief biographi-
cal notice of Captain James Skinner, who, after
seventeen years spent in active service, and
chiefly in the East, fell a victim the other day to
the treachery of the Affghans. Of the remain-
ing papers, the first is a soldier's narrative of the
" Capture of Ciudad Rodrigo."

COLONIAL MAGAZINE.
As may be surmised from its title, this Maga-
zine is devoted exclusively to the consideration
of colonial matters ; and, inter alia, containing
this mouth a sound, serviceable essay on the
principles of colonization, from the pen of an
operative, who seems to have considered the
question with care, as he has discussed it with
earnestness and ability.

BRITISH MAGAZINE.
A periodical confined for the most part to re-
ligious matters, which it usually canvasses with
temper and impartiality. The current Number
puts forth an original paper suggested by the
present "Dissensions in the Scottish Kirk," which
will please those who take an interest in the
theme.

THE FARMER'S MAGAZINE.
A good portrait of Earl Spencer, who is well
known as a zealous patron. of British agriculture,
embellishes this Number, Its collection of arti-
cles upon every subject connected with the
farming interest, renders it of important utility to
all who are engaged or interested in agricolar
avocations. Front 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, in 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 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-
cent visit to Scotland.

dered in old proceedings 'out of new ones, in
fact, legally to rob the suitor. If the old scale
of fees was sufficient to keep the six
clerks alive, surely it was sufficient to keep them
when dead. There could be no need first, of all of
the old tees ; next, of the doubled and trebled
fees ; and, lastly, of the four per cent. tax. Every
penny of the money so taken is extortion, and
extortion for its own sake.

The intelligence from Madrid of tie 25th ult.
possesses no interest. All apprehension of a
change, or modification of the Ministry had
ceased. The Three per Cents. were done on the
Madrid Bourse on the '2sth tilt. at 21 13-16
15-16 at 60 days. The Five per Cents. at 27 26
15-16 at 60 days.

In the Paris papers received this morning, the
principal topics of discussion are, the proposed
Treaty with Belgium, the base conduct of " per-
fidious Albion," and the removal of General
PAJOL from the command of the first military
division. In adverting to articles in the London
journals on Lord ABERDEEN'S letter, the Siecle

and. National display their usual hatred of Eng-
land. The latter journal sagely remarks that
the letter was dictated,by fear, and England has
good reason for her terror, as there is no Power
in Europe to which the first cannon-shot ought
to appear more formidable. France, though
isolated, as all the world knows and ad-
mits (we take the evidence even from French
journals), has only to stretch out her hands
to get allies, and of all countries in. the world,
Prussia is pointed out as one which ,would
be willing and happy to join with France against
this country. This is the climax of national mad-
ness, but. we will let this republican organ speak
for itself :—" Should war break out there is not
a single Power on the Continent to which we
could not render great services, and which would
not be favourably disposed to gratefully acknows
ledge them. We should only have to stretch out
our hand to find allies. We can aid Austria in
maintaining her position, and advancing in the
valley of the Lower Danube, from which Russia
is endeavouring to force her. Prussia can also
be assisted by us in her just design of becoming
a maritime power, and it is quite possible for us,
in unison with her, to work out the resurrection
of Poland; and to Russia herself, we can offer
our assistance in her progress in the East. Such
are the bases on which we can, when we please,
snake arrangements with whichever of the Great
Powers we may select. And as to the secondary
Powers of Europe or America, who can doubt,
that it would not be easy for us to form a vast
coalition with them, and so cover the world with
enemies to the English monopoly."
Galignani, in alluding to this article, quietly
remarks :—" Notwithstanding a vigilant atten-
tion to the English papers, we have nowhere
been able to discoier this dread of a war which
the National attributes •to them. That a desire
for the continuance of amity with this country is
generally felt and expressed, we are happy to
admit; but of the dread of hostilities so largely
talked of by our bellicose Contemporary, we per-
ceive no symptom whatever."
The Journal des Debats, alarmed at the ga-
thering of monopolists in Paris, makes the fol-
lowing statement :
" The addresses, the petitions, and the Committees
of Protection, appointed with so much display, have
little contributed to dissipate the alarm thus excited,
and we behold a veritable manufacturing congress
assembled at Paris, while the commercial towns raise
loud cries of distress, as if trade were on the eve of a
St. Bartholomew. Undoubtedly it is easy to perceive
what is false and exaggerated in such a state of things,
but the most resolute will acknowledge that it ought
to be taken into consideration. The evil already ex-
ists ; in spite of the best suggestions, and in spite of
the facts which the discussion has brought to light,
the manufacturing classes deem themselves threatened
with a great danger. The duty of the Government,
in such a case, is to adjourn, to temporise, to treat.
We are persuaded that the interests at present most
alarmed will not, in the end, have much reason to
congratulate themselves should they gain what they
may call a victory."
Marshal SOULT'S letter of dismissal to General
PAJOL is severely commented upon by the Op-
position prints,, ,The Constitutionnel alludes to
the services of thedeneral in accomplishing the
July Revolution—a service which at least ought to
have entitled bins to the everlasting gratitude
and confidence of the KING. " The green old
age," it adds, "of General PAJOL promised to
his MAJESTY many more years of good and loyal
service; and whatever may be the merit of his
successor, which we do not deny, it will require
a long time and much talent to acquire the popu-
larity of the late Commander of the First Divi;
vision." The Royalist journals remark that Ge 7.:
neral PAJOL has only experienced the same fate
as LAFITTE and LAFAYETTE. " Those who have
dismissed him," says the France, " would have
been nothing without him. General PAJOL, like
many others, has only to regret the ingratitude,
after twelve years' services, of a system ' which
he contributed in a great degree to establish. It
is not for us, certainly, to regret that the July
system' is shaking those who were its most zea-
lous partisans, for time has dispelled, and will dis-
pel, many illusions."
The Moniteur contains the official notification
of !the appointment of General TIBURCE SEBAS-
TIANI to succeed General PAJOL, mis en disponi-
bilite.
The following is the reply of the veteran Ge-
neral to the letter of Marshal SOULT, announcing
his dismissal : •
•
" Monsieur le. Marechal Soult—You have made
known to me that the command of the First Division
was about to be taken from me. -I was not pre-
pared for this decision; but it is a satisfaction to
me to reflect that it will be COMO 'to after order and
the greatest tranquillity have reigned in Paris for
more than three years. My sense of my own per-
sonal dignity has never allowed me to set any value
on my services, and if for a moment I call your at-
tention to them, it is not—l earnestly beg you to
believe—to protest against an unmerited disgrace.
Having been a soldier for fifty-two years, of which I
have been a Lieutenant-General for the last thirty
years, I was in the three last campaigns of the
Empire so happy as to obtain signal successes at the
head of numerous Corps of the army, and it is well
known that I was in the first line of Generals-in-
Chief for whom the Great Captain destined the baton
of Marshal. I might, perhaps, have been warranted
in, hoping that the Government of July 'would grant
me this reward, and thus realise all intention openly
manifested by the Emperor. Far from acknow-
ledging these claims, M. le Marechal, you seem dis-
posed to deprive me suddenly of a post, in which I
have, during twelve Years, passed through great diffi-
culties. A retreat thus preceded; has nothing re-
doubtable in my eyes. 1 have already known ad-
versity. My long career will not have been without
glory. My fellow-citizens will everdo me the justice
of testifying that I have constantly served my country
with the most disinterested. devotion. Therefore,
however rigorous may be the lot which awaits me, 1
shall meet with resignation the sentence with which 1
am threatened. I am, with respect, &c.

ENOEISII LANDLORDS.—The Morning Post yester-
day had a long article to prove that English landlords
were such angelic beings that their tenants might
always rely on receiving from them the value of all
their improvements, and of being left, as long as they
continued to cultivate well, in undisturbed possession
of their holdings. A single fact is worth a ton of
reasoning, and if the Post could show that the follow-
ing assertion of the Stamford Mercury, which we
repeat, is false, its -other statements might find
credulous believers :—" A few days ago an old tenant
of thirty years' standing received notice to quit, and
was inftormed by the steward, who served the notice,
and subsequently by the Earl himself, that the only
'reason for the discharge was, that he went to the
Methodist chapel,- and was a Methodist preacher."
'The Post should also prove that no tenant has been
dispossessed during our late political struggles, be-
cause his opinions and those of his landlord did
not coincide.
THE FARMER'S ALMANAC Yon 1843.--This manual

F.R.S., a name well known among agriculturists,
assisted by William Shaw, Esq., late Secretary to the
Royal Agricultural Society of England, and is the
most, copious and useful publication of the kind that
'has come under our observation. We are therefore
glad to learn that it is' increasing rapidly- in eircula-
