EXTRAORDINARY SPECIMEN OF WEAVING.-3Sre,
have recently had an opportunity of inspecting what
we believe to be the most extraordinary specimen .ot
the textile art that has yet been seen in this country,
produced at the works of Messrs. James and Abrahaul
Meyer and Co. of Brandenburg, near Berlin. jte
contains a medallion portrait of the late King 01
Prussia, supported by four emblematic female figures.
representing Wisdom, Power, Justice, and Mercy:
and also a copy of the will of that monarch, and'ez
his well-known address to his son and successor. The
whole is executed in silk; in the manner of the per'
trait of M. Jacquard, which many of our readers mei
recollect to have seen at the Anti-Corn-law Bazattr,
in the Theatre Royal. The produce of the Prussida
loom, however, appears to us greatly superior in deli
cacy of execution to the French; and some of the
figures, with their draperies, are equal in effect to the
finest productions of the engraver. We understana
it is probable that this beautiful and unique specimer,
which still belongs to the manufacturers, would, on
proper application, be presented by them to any pub'
lie Institution in Manchester, where it could be pt'lr'
licly seen; and we are quite sure that there is no ier
stitution to which it would not do credit._Manchest

A PIOUS FRAUD. Ti-e Edinburgh Witness of
Wednesday announced with great importance • ti?,':
Sir Robert Peel, at the levee on Monday at Dalkeltil
Palace, had left his position near the throne in order
";,to salute Dr. Chalmers with a cordial shake of the
hand." That Sir Robert Peel did leave his positiot%
near the throne is quite true, but it was to salute
with a cordial shake of the hand the Rev. PrinciPal
Macfarlane of Glasgow, with whom the Premier en-
tered into earnest conversation.—Edinburgh PaPer`
FATAL ACCIDENT.—It is again our task to record
another death in this neighbourhood from "lock-jaw.•
The unfortunate deceased was• the youngest son of the
Hon. Mr. Norton, and his death occurred under the
following singular circumstances. On Monday week
the boy was riding a small pony, which became nil"
manageable, and ran away with him ; before proceed-
ing. far be fell from his pony, and on examination lus
face was slightly grazed, and also his arm near the
elbow. The boy soon recovered his usual spirits, and
the wounds appeared to be doing well. Last Fridai,
week he went out as usual, on Saturday symptoms 01
":lock-jaw" were visible, and on Sunday he was a
cose.—Leeds Journal.
CHIMNEY-SWEEPERS.-A man, named Martin, a
master sweep, was charged, on Saturday last, before g_r•
Rushton, at the Liverpool police-office, with having sent
a boy under the age of 21 up a chimney. Mr. Richard
Houghton was charged also with having permitted a WY
under 21 years to ascend his chimney. The information
was laid at the instigation of a master sweep, for whoel
Mr. Davenport appeared, and stated that the defendant
(Martin) was one of those who were determined to set
the Act et defiance, and not to sweep by machinery.
One of men in the employ of the informant pro Fed
the case -apinst both parties. Mrs. Houghton, who sr
peered on behalf of her husband, having satisfied the
Magistrate that she was deceived by the • defendant both
as to the age of the boy and the age specified by the law,
was acquitted. Mr. Rushton, however, told her to talc°
notice, that the law did not allow any individual undo'
21 years of age to be sent up a chimney, and that all
housekeper suffering an individual under that age 50
ascend a chimney became liable to a penalty of not
less than Si,, and which might, be 10/. •Martin wag
fined 51., and, in default of payment, was ordered to be,
imprisoned one month. Mr. Davenport said, be luta,
to apply to the Magistrate on behalf of the individUel
who had given evidence, who had been threatened by
a number of sweeps and was afraid to move abroad;
The back part of the Court was at this moment crowded
with sweeps. Mr. Rushton said, if the witness received
either threats or injury he was to apply to him, and he
would make a severe example of the offenders.
EDINBURGH COMPLETE SUFFRAGE UNION...At
lest weekly meeting of the Council, the Secretaries laid
on the table a letter which they had received from Lord
Kinnaird, expressing regret that his engagements in
Perthshire, at the end of the month, and particularly 011
the 29th instant, would preclude his presiding at the
banquet to be given on that day to Mr. Wm. Sharman
Craa ford, and the other Members of Parliament who
voted with him on the presentation of the petition for
complete suffrage. It was then arranged that Mr. Dun-
lop, the President of the Union, should take the chair on
the occasion. Besides Mr. Crawford and the other
Members of the House of Commons who had accepted
the invitation of the Union, it was announced that letters
had been received from the following gentlemen, inti-
mating their intention of being present at the banquet----
Messrs. Joseph Sturge, George Thompson, Henry Vin-
cent, John Collins, John Henderson, Provost of Paisley,
and the Rev. P. Brewster.—Edinburgh Weekly Chronicle.
