MUSIC.

" I LANGUISH FOR A FRIENDLY HEART."
Sung, written by Major CALDER CAMPBELL.
Composed, and dedicated by permission, to the Right
Hon. ,the Countess of Me.rborough, by J. PINNING.
A pretty simple ballad, 'set to very appropriate
music by Mr. Vinning. The melodyis graceful and
flowing, and the accompaniment veryjudicious, sup-
porting, but not drowning; :the, voice. -It will be a
favourite with all those ladies who prefer the flow of
melody to the exhibition of mere tours de force, and
as it requires no excessive power of•voice to give it
full effect, this song will no doubt- become a favourite
in the drawing-room.

MR. WILSON'S FAREWELL EN-
TERTAINMENT in LONDON for the SEASON.
On Wednesday Mr. Wilson gave his last entertainment for
the season, at the Hanover-square Rooms, which were crowded,
and on no occasion could this favourite vocalivt have been more
gratified, for the plaudits of his numerottS and fashionable audi-
ence were given in the most hearty manner. After he had
sung his last song, Mr. Wilson, in " a few words at parting,"
expressed his gratitude for the reception his- entertainments
had met with. He commenced them by announcing three, and
had gone on till he had reached the twenty-ninth, at the Music
Hall, in Store-street, besides having given them in the
Hanover-square Rooms, in Hackney, in Kennington, Camber-
well, and other parts in the neighbourhood of London,
in all which places they had met with equal success.
In conclusion, he hoped that those Ladies and Gentlemen who
had attended his Entertainments, many of them without miss-
ing a single night, bad had no cause to regret having passed a
few hours in his company. He mentioned his intention of
bringing forward his Entertainmenti next season, whieh he
trusted would merit the same patronage that those of this
season had received, and ended by repeating Miss Joanna
Baillie's lines:—

Sweet sleep be with you, one and all,
And if upon its stillness fall
The visions of a busy brain,
We'll have our pleasures o'er again.
To warm the heart, and cheer the sight
Gay dreams to all ! Good night Good night !
Mr. Wilson, alter rusticating for a few weeks, visits, as we
have elsewhere remarked, the leading provincial towns in Eng-
land, as also Scotland and Ireland.

and zau direct into the water. Before witness could raise an
alarm deceased was carried some distance by the tide, and after
she sunk a man jumped in to endeavour to save her. He was

SODA WATLR.

ROUGHSEDGE and Swim Ens have hitherto relied on
the discernment of the public to discover and appreciate
the superior quality «if the Arated Water produced by
their manufactory, and they have scorned t i have re•
e.mr,e to any tricks. In the present day some persons
consider it requisite to make use of puffs and quackery
in order to extend the sale of their own productions by
detracting from the merits of rival establishments. R.
and S. have such strong grounds of reliance on the supe-
riority of their own soda-water and lemonade, founded
on the recommendatien of the most eminent of the
faculty, on the results of the most searching chemical
analyses. and the extensive and still increasing demand
' for them by the -public, both at home and abroad,
that they have hitherto treated the insinuations
of quackery alluded to with the contempt they
deserve. But if these indirect insinuations are
still to be obtruded on the public, R. and S. feel
themselves justified in offering those explanations that
may enable the public to judge for themselves. If R. and
S. hsve placed the name of Schweppe upon their bottles,
it was never to mislead the public us to connexion with
that firm, but ter the purpose of announcing a legitimate
fact, and always subordinate to their oe n. Without im-
puting undue credit to the name of Schweppe, they have
simply stated that they c,ime from the house ofSchweppe
ant Co., ---an undoubted fact, or doubtless it would have
been denied. For five and twenty years, diming the very
period that the waters sold by Sehweppesave to that
name all the celebrity it ever obtained, itli.--Siimmers
was the engineer and manufacturer of the waters sold
by that house' in London, Derby, and Bristol. It is
many years since any person, having the slightest
connexion with the name or family of the 'late Mr.
Schweppe, has been connected with any house in the
' trade. In the year 1834, the proprietor of the busi-
ness carried on under the name of Sehweppe and Co.
sold • his interest to persons with whom R. and 8.
declined to remain : they preferred employing their in-
dustry and practical knewledge in establishing a business
for their own mutual profit. Whether the waters since
manufactured by the present firm of Schwep'pe and Co.
retain the quality which acquired for that house all its
celebrity, R. and S. decline to give an opinion but, in
justice to themselves, they do, with the most perfect con-
fidence and pod faith, say that—highly as some ma
nufacturers seem to estimate the bottles which bear
their name (expensive an item as bottles are), and diffi-
cult us it is to prevent retail tradesmen from returning
wrong ones—there is no bottle bearing any other than
their own, however celebrated, to which Roughsedge and
Summers would wish to add the reputation to be derived
from Cling them with waters of their own manufactory.
ROUCHSEDGE and SUMMERS an!y desire suds patconage4

at their own manqfactory, and sold under the labels of
their own name.-37, Bridge-street, Bristol.

FINAL RESULTS OF TIIE GENERAL ELEC.

TIONS.

" LISBON, TUESDAY, JUNE 21, 3 P.M.

" The scrutiny of the elections for Estremadura has
this moment concluded, and the result is, that the Go-
vernment has been defeated by a large majority, there
being 16 of the Coalition and only 6 of the Government
candidates returned. This is by far the most important
election in Portugal, the candidates on both sides being
among the most notable politicians in the kingdom. As
a set-off to this triumph of the Coalition, the Govern-
ment will certainly be victorious in the contested election
of Evora, in the Alerntejo, their candidates having been
returned (as I have just now ascertained by the tele-
graphic despatch) by a majority of six to the Bureau
which has the management of the electoral scrutiny.
There is scarcely a doubt that these candidates will be
finally returned by the same majority.
" The names of the 16 Opposition Members returned
for the Estreinadura district are :—Rodrijo da Fonseca
Magalhaes, J. IL de Miranda, A. C. de Vasconcellos, J.
G. da S. Sanches, Faintino da Gama, Joaquim Antonio
d'Aguiar (late Premier), Avila (late Finance Minister)
Altera de Castro, Garrett, Beirao, M. A. de Campos,
Jose Estevao de Magalhaes, Monzinto Albuguergue, C.
Castello Branco, 0. Holini, and M. D..Leitao. The
Government Members returned are—Costa Cabral, the
Ministers of Marine anti Justice, J. J. Faleao, M. B.
d'Oliveira Borges, and .T..da C. Carvalho. This result
is most perilous, and may prove fatal to the existing Ad-
ministration. Everything is quiet, but the enthusiasm
of the OppoSition is extreme. In the Coalition list re-
turned there is one Aliguelite. Tho defeat of the Go-
vernment is owing to the ratting of two individuals, and
to three others absenting themselves on the plea of ill
heaith. They are said to have received 300 milreis each
tom the Coalition to secure that result.

SODA WATER, LE MONADE, and FLUID MAGNESIA.
ROUGHSEDGE and SUMMERS, Nos. 18, and
37, Bridge-street, Briqtol, return their grateful acknow-
ledgments to their Friends mid the Public for the unprece-
dented support they have met with since they establ shed their
SODA WA TER;LEMONADE, and /ERATED WATERS
MANUFACTORY. They also beg leave to inform the
Nobility, Gentry, &c., that they have commenced manufac-
turing a FLUID MAGNESIA, which has been analysed by
one of the first Philosophical Chemists in England, and has
been pronounced by the most eminent of the Faculty to con-
tain a greater quantity of medicine than any other yet offered to
the public, and the concentration of the bicarbonate in R. and
S.'s FLUID MAGNESIA (without detriment to its purity)
to be much more considerable than in many other productions
of the kind.

The great advantage of this elegant preparation is recom-
mended in all cases of Bile, Acidities, Indigestion, Gout,
Gravel, and other Complaints of the Bladder, as the most safe,
easy, and effectual form in which Magnesia may, and, indeed,
the only one in which it ought to be, exhibited ; possessing all
the properties of the Alagnesia now in general use. without
being liable, like it, to form dangerous concretions in the
bowels, it effectually cures Heart-burn, without injuring the
goats of the Stomach, and prevents the food of infants turning
sour, and in all cases it acts as an agreeable aperient.
N.B. With the Acidulated Syrup the FLUID MAGNESIA
forms the most delightful of Saline Draughts.
Sold in Bottles of Is., 2s. 6d., and 4s. 6d. ; and in Cases

" RICHARD SAVAGE," A ROMANCE OF REAL
LIFE. By CHARLES WHITEHEAD, ESQ.—If ever the
adage, that " truth is stranger than fiction,". was il-
lustrated and proved in the varied adventures of an
individual, it was especially confirmed in the life of
the hero of these volumes. Hence the interest which
the " Life of Savage," as given in the publication in
which it originally appeared, raised as it proceeded
through successive Numbers of Bentley's Miscellany,
and the perpetuity it will secure in the appropriate
form in which it is now produced. In the trial scene
we seem to be present in the Court. The intensity
of interest which is excited in the breasts of spectators,
when the fate of a fellow-being hangs trembling in
the balance, is felt by the reader; for he knows that
it was felt on the occasion so vividly described. The
poet, pining in poverty, and suffering within the walls
of a prison in which he was incarcerated fora trifling
debt—the death-bed scene of the gifted but intract-
able, imprudent son of genius—the unnatural neglect
of his childhood, and the persevering efforts pursued
by his depraved Countess-mother to destroy him in,
after-life, with the incidental notices of the associates,
good and bad, who shared his pleasures, ministered to
his wants, or stimulated his depravities, some of whom
have acquired notoriety or fame in the pages of con-
temporary history-.---supply materials, which Mr.
Whitehead has judiciously wrought up to form a
most interesting and instructive narrative.—Globe.
Captain Teasdale, Thomas Parker, Esq., Captain
Nelson, and Sir George Warrender, arrived at Black-.
wail this morning from Antwerp, by the General_
Steam Navigation Company's steam-ship Wilber-
force, Captain Stranack, after a most excellent pas-
sage of only 18k hours.

IREL4ND.

DUBLIN.—The monotonous routine of the Revision
Court was on Thursday relieved by sundry efforts of
gaiety, which were received with immense satisfac-
tion, and all seemed to be of opinion that it is good to
be "merry and wise." The first provocation to this
sprightly mood, was the occurrence, in Merrion Ward,
of the name of the Right Hon. F. Blackburne, her
Majesty's (qu. late) Attorney-General.
The LORD MAYOR inquired whether there was any
objection to the claimant? Mr. Crean—Yes, my
Lord. I have an objection to his being placed upon
the roll.

LORD MA,YOR—Have you any objection to his being
placed in the Rolls ? Mr. Crean—lndeed I have, my
Lord, a very strong objection, if I could help it.
The claimant was admitted.

The name of Stanley, Ireland was next objected to
by Mr. Crean, on the Liberal side, upon the ground
of his being a defaulter in the pipe-water rent.
LORD MAYOR (to Mr. Crean)—ls it from your
side, Mr. Crean, that the objection to Ireland comes ?
Mr. Crean—You see, my Lord, we do not like the
name of Stanley.—(Laughter.)
The LORD Mayon—But, strange to say, in the
present instance, by admitting Stanley, you extend
the franchise to Ireland.—(Laughter.)
It was proved that the tax in question had been
paid, and the objection to his name was consequently
overruled.

The LORD MAYOR—This is a great day for Ire-
land, notwithstanding your objections.—(Laughter.)
The next claimant was Henrf Chinnery Justice.
On the name " Justice " being called out— .
Mr. Wauchob—l am glad to be able to congra-
tulate your Lordship on the proximity which now
appears to exist between Justice and Ireland.
The LORD MAYOR—I am happy to receive your
congratulation, and rejoice to find it comes from you.
The claim of the Right Hon. Justice Devonsher
Jackson was objected to on the Liberal side for non-
payment of minister's money.
The LORD MAYOR said he would have been very
sorry if the Learned Judge had been found in arrear
of any other tax but minister's money.—(Laughter.)
At this stage of the proceedings his Lordship left
the Court for a short period. The assessors were
proeeeding with the revision.
Mr. Wauchob—ls it possible, gentlemen, you are
going on in the absence of the Lord Mayor ?—The
assessors replied that it was their intention to do so.
Mr. Watson (a gentleman on the Conservative side)
—Why, gentlemen, the Lord, Mayor said the other
day that you could do nothing without him, and that
you were both of you only ornamental.—(Laughter.)
Mr. Baker—l am sure the Lord Mayor could not
have seen either of us before he said that.

Mr. Nelson—Oh, we may be very crnamental—
that is a matter of taste—but I trust we may be re-
garded as useful also.—(Laughter.)
The assessors proceeded with the revision until the
return of the Lord Mayor, when the business which
had been gone through in his absence was submitted
for his approval.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE SUN.
SIR,—A paragraph having appeared in the papers
of last week, in reference to the fire which took place
at Notting-hill, in which my name is most erroneously
brought forward, I beg to observe that no inter-
ference on my part was necessary in any one way ;
that the fire was purely accidental ; and that it was
got under mainly by the praiseworthy exertions of
the neighbours. Having, as correctly stated, attended
the lady in a difficult accouchement, it was very
natural that I should be immediately sent for • but
beyond that, and calming my patient's alarm, I am
happy to add, there was little left for me to accom-
plish. In justice to all parties, I trust you will insert
the above explanation.—l am, Sir, your obedient ser-
vant, A. B. CHISHOLM.

NAVAL AND IVZILITARY.

The late Major Annesley, whose death we reported
a few days since, was the son of the Hon. Marcus
Annesley, of the county Down. He was at the battle
of Maida, and was engaged in that of Salamanca, as
Captain. At the passage of the Nivelle in 1813 be
received a severe gun-shot wound, which rendered
him lame for life.

FOREIGN.

The Great Western steamer arrived at Bristol on
the 12th, having made the passage from New York
in about thirteen days. The papers, which are to the
29th ult., bring accounts of a partial change of Minis-
try in Canada. Lord Morpeth arrived by the GreA
Western. _ _

A riot took place at Philadelphia on the 24th ult.,
caused by the hand-loom weavers. Their intention
was to burn the factory of a Mr. Ketnpton, who had
introduced macl.inery, and thereby injured their
trade. It was easily put down, however, after three
or four persons had been wounded.
The merchants at Trieste are about to commission
two persons to explore the ports of the Red Sea and
India by Suez, with the object of opening a trade
between Trieste and those countries.

The Emperor of Russia, who left Moscow on the
16th ult., on a tour in the interior, on the next day
arrived at Tula, where he inspected the cadet school and
the manufactory of arms, which latter is in fall work,
and has many French and German artisans employed
in it. It is the chief source .whence the troops are
supplied. On the 18th his Majesty went on to Kursk,
where he held a grand review. The Emperor was to
proceed to the South, visiting Odessa and the ports of
the Black Sea, and the Sea of Azoti, before he re-.
turned to St. I'etersburgh by Warsaw. The war in
the Caucasus is believed to have induced this tour in
the South,. as the principal depots for supplying the
troops engaged in it are in those districts.
Giandier, the theatre of the Lafarge tragedy,
has been sold before the Civil Tribunal of Tulle, to
M. Bonnel Laborie, a notary at.Vigeois, for 81,000 f.

the arrival there of Lord Wilton as Envoy Extraordi-
nary, Mr. Mellish as his secretary, Lord Charles Wel—
lesley, Sir Charles Young, Garter King at Arms, and
Mr. Pulman, the herald, commissioned by the Queen
of England to invest his Majesty the King of Saxony
with the insignia of the Order of the Garter.
The Debals states that the Prince de Joinville and
the Duke d'Aumale will embark at Brest in the Belle
Poule for Gibraltar, from whence the Duke d'Aumale
will go by a steamer to Algiers. The Prince ofJoin-
ville will proceed in the Belle Poule to the coast of
Senegal, and thence to the coast of South America.
A correspondent at Amsterdam writes that the im-
portant discovery has been made ,at Batavia, in the
island of Java, of the means of extracting potass from
the stalks of the indigo plant, which is found to be of
better quality and much cheaper than that imported
from America.
DZONEIT-TIZADE-COMMERCE.

THURSDAY MORNING. OCTOBER 13, 1342.

It is a misfortune for England that not only
her rulers, but the bulk of her public writers are
educated at schools and colleges, much more un-
der the guidance of mere classical scholars or of
the clergy than of men acquainted with the af-
fairs of the world. Hence it happens, that while
Members of ParliaMent, and editors of public
journals, exhibit an intimate acquaintance with
h ritings of antiquity, and are not deficient
in a knowledge of theological controversy, they
are very ill
example, we foundinform the
on matters of trade. For
all trade as one of yesterday describ-
inge i
f " pounds, shillings, and
pence," and stigmatizingz' it as "the love again,"
which seems to us, for an Englishman—the great-
ness of whose country mainly depends on her
commerce, which led the way to the acquisition
of the most splendid empire she
unworthy has acquired—

truly and eloquently,—

LA W INTELLIGENCE.
• COURT OF BANKRUPTCY, Oct. 12.
IN RE EDWARD CORAII.
The bankrupt had carried on very extensive busi-
r,..ss as a hosier and draper, in Union •street, Bristol,
A now appeared in Court to pass his final exami-
naLion. Tho amount of debts at present proved was
stated to be 4,0001.
It appeared that previous to his surrender he left
Bristol and went to France, having a sum of money
about him, part of which he alleged that he
paid into Messrs. Adams' bank at Boulogne, for the
purpose of meeting several accommodation bills upon
which he had become liable. A portion of the money
he so pail in was in country notes, and it was con-
tended by the Learned Counsel that this statement
invalidated the whole of his testimony, inasmuch as
no continental hank would thus become the medium
of paying promissory notes by advice. A partion of
the money he took from Bristol he gave to his wife,
but he was unable to state where she was. In going
to France he tcik his passport out in his own name.
sent part of his furniture to his brother-in-law, but
lie.did not know his present residence.

• Dlring his examination the bankrupt burst into
tears, and his solicitor requested that Mr. James
would spare his feelings, on account of his respectable

connexions.

Mr. Commissioner FAKE, after some animadver-
sions on the case, ordered the examination to stand
adjourned for six weeks, in order to procure proof of
the fact of the money having been paid into the
Boulogne bank, and how it was applied, and also to
require the attendance of the bankrupt's wife.
