SAFETY BEACON ON THE GOOD WIN
SANDS. Colnaghi, London, 1842.
For this admirable invention we are indebted
to the enterprise and ingenuity of Captain Bul-
lock, R.N., whose experiment, remarkable for
its simplicity, has already withstood the storms
of two winters, one Of them the severest on re-
cord for a long period. As we gave a detailed
account of the Beacon some days since in The Sun,
we need not here repeat it; so shall just state that
two engraved representations of it are now lying
before us, one of which exhibits it at low water,
with the mast rising forty feet high from the
level of the Goodwin Sands, which are crowded
with groups of people, and present a cheerful
and even picturesque aspect. The other engrav-
ing represents the Beacon at high water, with a
storm in the Channel, and the waves dashing
with ineffectual fury around it. A large ship has
struck, and is fast going to pieces on the fatal sands
close by the safety mast; some of its crew have
evidently just escaped from the wreck, and ma-
naged, by aid of the chain ladder, to reach the
gallery in safety ; but one poor fellow, more ex-
hausted than his companions, is holding fast on
to a floating spar, and stretching forth one hand,
in order to grasp at the rope which his comrades
are about to throw out to him from the gal-
lery. From the summit of the mast a light pole
is thrown up, to the height, apparently, of twelve
or fourteen feet,to which a blue flag is attached, by
way of informing the pilots and boatmen on shore
that their immediate assistance is necessary.
The sketch is a highly interesting one, and im-
presses us with a vivid idea of the value and
efficiency of Captain Bullock's experiment, who
deserves the warmest thanks of his countrymen
for the philanthropic spirit that suggested the con-
ception of the Safety Beacon, and the bold, un-
flinching perseverance, which, despite a thousand
obstacles, has brought it to a successful termina-
tion. We think it far from unlikely that the Gal-
lant Officer's experiment will be the means of
saving annually the lives of some two or three
hundred beings.

PEOPLE'S EDITION 011
SIR WALTER SCOTT'S NOVELS.
On SATURDAY, JANUARY 1, 1842, was published,
and will be continued each Saturday till the whole is com-
pleted, No. I. Price Twopence, containing one sheet royal Bvo.,
double columnt. of WAVERLEY ; or, 'TIS SIXTY YEARS
SINCE. With all the Author's Introductions and Notes.
To be immediately followed by " Guy Mannering," " The
Antiquary," and all the other Navels and Romances of Sir
Walter Scott.

N.B. Part 1., in a Stitched Cover, containing Four Num-
bers, will be published on Saturday, 22d January, Price Nine-
pence.

The Proprietors are anxious to meet the wishes of many in-
telligent Correspondents among the Working Classes, who re-
present that, notwithstanding the great circulation and unpa-
ralleled celebrity of THE WA VERLEY NOVELS, thou-
sands upon thousands of our industrious countrymen have yet
to form acquaintance with the Baron Bradwardines and Fergus
M'lvors, the Meg Merrilees and Dominie Sampsons, the Ed'e
Ochiltrees, Old Ilortalitys, Die Vernons, Rob Roys, Jeanie
Deanses, and numberless other immortal creations of the Prince
of Novelists. The Edition now announced will, it is hoped, be
allowed to put these marvellous performances within the reach
of the masses.

It is expected that the entire Novels will comprise about 260
sheets ; and, besides the Weekly Issue, a Monthly stitched
Part, price Ninepence, will be delivered with the Magazines.

THE PHILLPSTOWN AFFAIR.

It seems that some of the parties—not Captain Duff—
said to have been implicated in the outrage, have moved
for a conditional order for liberty to file a criminal infor-
mation against the proprietor of the Monitor, for a libel.
This proceeding, we take it for granted, is recurred to—
not in the view of vengeance, but to enable the parties
inculpated, or alleged to have been inculpated by the
Monitor, to justify themselves before the public. Even
-so, we do not think the course a judicious one. But
waiving this question for the present, we really do not
see the why of withholding the notes taken at the in-
quest. We cannot possibly see what effect the publica-
tion
of their proceedings could have upon the Queen's
Bench=ivhile, on the other hand, the document, even in
this secondary form, might be used advantageously by
the Monitor in its defence.—Dublin Evening Post.

THE DIME OP CLEVELAND.—Upon inquiry
on Satvday at the Duke of Cleveland's, in
St. James's-square, the answer was that his
Grace had passed another quiet night, and was
much the same as on Friday.

The number of deaths in the metropolis
during thA. week ending January 8, had de-
creased by 46, as compared with that of the
previous week The decrease bad taken
place chiefly in the deaths caused by dis-
eases 'of the brain, the heart, old age, and
those of uncertain seat: The deaths from dis-
eases of the lungs are still on the increase,
eighteen more have occurred during the last than
the former week, and not fewer than forty-six
as compared with the week ending Dec. 25.
Sir Robert Peel left town at one on Saturday
afternoon, by a train of the Great Western
Railway, for Windsor Castle, to attend the Privy
Council, appointed to be held at half-past two
o'clock.—The Chancellor of the Exchequer went
to Putney on Friday morning, on a visit to the
Earl of Ripon ; the Right Honourable Gentle-
man and his Lordship went from Putney to at-
tend the Council. Most of the other Ministers,
except the Duke of Wellington, also left town
for Windsor Castle this morning.

SUMMARY OF NEWS

AND
43tOJItt Opinion.

" Who runs may read."

POPLEIGN.

While the French Chamber of Peers were discussing
the Address in answer to the Speech from the Throne,
on Wednesday, Baron de Daunant demanded that the
responsible Editor of the Siecle should be brought to
the bar for a breach of privilege, contained in an article
reflecting on their Lordships' character as a legislative
and judicial body. After a brief debate, the motion
bras adjourned over till Th,irsday. Upon this topic,
the following are the opinions of the Liberal press:-
The Constitutionnel says :—" The incident which ter-
minated the sitting of the Chamber of Peers yesterday,
is in every sense to be regretted. We can understand
that the Chamber of Peers should be a very severe
guadian of its dignity ; but is it supposed that in this
point of view there will be any advantage on calling to
the bar a journal like the Siecle, which is notoriously at-
tached to our institutions, and openly professes its de-
sire to uphold them ? The observations made to M. de
Boissy by the President himself are precisely those which
the Siecle has put forward, with too much bitterness, it
is true, but without changing the sense or the character
of them."

The Cannier Francais observes:—" The article of the
Siecle, which M. de Daunant read to the Chamber of
Peers, does not appear to us to be in the slightest de-
gree susceptible of the interpretation which has been
given to it. The Siecle does not say that the Chamber
has ceased to be one of the powers of the State ; it sim-
ply attacks, and with reason, the Ministry which, by
multiplying beyond measure the trials before the Court
of Peers, makes the judicial functions of the Members of
the Chamber more prominent than their legislative func-
tions. We trust that as the Chamber has taken time to
reflect on the proposition of M. de Daunant, it will decide
on.rejecting it.

The National says :L-After having read the article of the
Siecle, no person can imagine that the susceptibility of
M. de Daunant is well fOunded. .All that the Siecle says
has been frequently said by Journals of a very opposite
colour, and even in official speeches, without the Chamber
of Peers having taken offence at it. One of the Peers
proposed to send the Siecle before a Jury. We do not
think that a Jury can be found to condemn it. Will the
Chamber of Peers, judging in ifs own cause, come to a
different decision from that which would be given by
a Jury ?

IN RE WETHERINGTON.

The insolvent, who was desct:ibed as Of 124, Crawford-
street, Maryl9bone, applied to be discharged on bail.
Mr. WOODROFFE opposed the application, on the
ground that of the persons offering themselves as bail
one was the insolvent's brother-in-law, who first put him
in prison, and the other was his brother, who was now
in possession of his house and furniture.
Mr. Commissioner BOWEN thought it was most pre •
posterous for a person to put a man in prison, and then
bail him out. He should most decidedly reject the pa-
plication.

GOSSIP on the ROYAL EXCHANGE.

" The man who stood on the Acropolis, .
. And looked down over Attica; or he
Who has sailed where picturesque Constantinople is,

Or seen Timbuctoo, or bath taken tea
In small-eyed China's crockery-ware metropolis,
Or sat amidst the bricks of Nineveh,
May not think much of London's first appearance—
BUT ASK HIM WHAT HE THINKS OF IT A YEAR HENCE!"
BYRON.

The occasion of so interesting a ceremony as
that of the foundation of a new Bourse, or Royal
Exchange, for the first commercial city in the
world, cannot fail to be regarded with peculiar
interest, and in order to gratify our readers, we
shall give some particulars of the present site, a
historical account of the late Exchange, with
allusions to the Bourses on the Continent, and
a brief description of the new building, which
has been this day commenced under such happy
auspices.
THE PRESENT SITE, A PRISON.—Who would
have believed that the site of the front on which
the present stately building is to arise was, a few
centuries since, a loathsome prison, called the
Tun. An inscription on the pump, on the south
side, expressed that in this dame spot a well was
first made by Wallis, Mayor of London, in the
year 1282. The well underneath, on which the
pump was erected, was re-discovered in 1799.
SPILLER, THE SCULPTOR.—Of the statues which
adorned the late edifice, and of which no doubt
that which is about to rise upon its ruins, will
contain in time as many and as noble, every one
will remember that which used to occupy the
London, England, 1842-01-17

owners stopped ,altogether, which it isfsaid would
have been the moat prudent course for them to hive
!ve
adopted to stem the torrent of depression which
was thus heavily . bearing 'doWvi their property and
i profits. Among the effects produced by ,the work-
; it,g of short time, and the total stoppage of some
j of the factories,- was the falling off of 12 ,670 bales in
the weekly deliveries of cotton during the year, which
reduced the consumption to nearly the same as i t
was in 1839. There had been a considerable falling
off in the home trade, which could only be ascribed to
the diminution in the means which the operatives have
had at their disposal for clothing. On the other hand,
the exports had increased to almost every quarter, ex-
cept the British West Indies and the western coast of
South America, and altogether the increase in exports
had been great. Upon the general state of trade it is
remarked that Manchester must not overlook the fact,
that the causes which have paralysed her trade, have
also worked as strongly in the major part of the other
departments of the trade of the country, and must not,
therefore, imagine that her trade has been more hea-
vily pressed on than others, and must bear in mind that
the symptoms of improvement which now appear evident
from the plentiful influx of bullion, the easy condition
of the Bank, and the better results likely to arise from
our more amicable position with our foreign relations,
will as fully benefit her particular department as any
other in the trade of the United Kingdom.

SHIPOWNERS AND SEAMEN.

On Saturday, at the Greenwich Police-office, Mr. H:
Gortley, master of the barque Harbinger, of Quebec, 320
tons, appeared to answer a summons given him by 11
seamen, for wages due to them on a voyage between that
port and London.
Mr. Pelham appeared for the claimants, and Mr. Cart-
tar, the Coroner, on behalf of the Captain and owners.
The first case called was that of Henry James Dous-
ley, for wages amounting to 71. 195., which decided that
of the remainder. Dousley, on being sworn, said that he
signed the articles of agreement to make the voyage as
able seaman on board the Harbinger, at 51. per month, in
the Shipping Master's Office, Quebec, on the 12th Nov.
last. The ship sailed on the 14th, and reached the port
of London on the 28th of December. The articles were
not read over to him, nor was the Captain present.
Mr. Grove—Then he is liable to a penalty of Si.
On the passage from Quebec down the St. Lawrence
they discovered that the ship was very leaky and in an
unseaworthy state. All hands knocked off, and refused
to proceed, as they considered their lives in danger ; did
not know her state previous to leaving Quebec; she made
a great deal of water afterwards. The Captain came down
the forecastle on the Wednesday morning after sailing
and offered them all 31. each in addition to their wages ;
said the vessel was new, and leaky in consequence ; he
also offered grog, both of which they refused, saying
that they would not go for 201. at the risk of their
lives. The vehsel seas becoming water-logged. It

INCENDIARY FIRES IN DAREIELD..-- On
Sunday last, about six o'clock in, the morning, a hay-
stack belonging to the Rev. B. Charlesworth, vicar of
Darfield, was found to be on fire. Prompt assistance
was immediately procured, and the fire was shortly af-
terwards put out, but not before, we are sorry to add,
the whole of the hay left was so much damaged as to be
unfit for use. On the fortnight previous a hay stack was
fired belonging to Mr. W. Allerton, parish clerk at the
same place. There can be no doubt but that both fires
are the work of incendiaries, who have thus put this
little peaceable village into the greatest excitement by
heir malicious acts.—Doncaster Gazette.
In the Times of Saturday last there appeared
a paragraph calling on the public for benevolence towards
the lam and children of the late Mr. Howard—the
money to be paid to a certain individual. We are au-
thorised to state that the application is totally without
the sanction of the widPvf Pr ker father, who feel it their
duty to warn the public,

THE KING OF PRUSSIA,

On Saturday night two waggons, containing the bag-
gage of his Majesty the King of Prussia and of the
Noblemen and Gentlemen constituting his suite, arrived
from Ostend, and this morning proceed to Windsor Castle.

At an early hour, to-morrow morning, her Majesty's
steamer Firebrand, Capt. Nott, R.N., commander, will
leave Woolwich for Ostend, in order to convey his
Majesty to this country.
His Excellency Chevalier Bunsen, the Prussian Mi-
nister, will leave by the Firebrand for Ostend, to meet his
Majesty, who is expected, to arrive there on Wednesday.
His Excellency will return in company with his Royal
master, who is expected to land at Woolwich on Satur-
day, and from thence will proceed direct to 'Windsor
Castle on a visit to the Queen, and not go to Bucking-
ham Palace for the night, as was originally intended.
Baron Schlenitz, the late Prussian Charge d'Affaires
and Baron Canitz, the Chief Secretary of the Legation, as
also the Prussian Consul, will attend at Woolwich
Dockyard to receive his Majesty.
