THE NAVAL POSITION OF ENGLAND.

(From the Morning Herald,)
There has just been published by Hatchard, a pam-
phlet, intitled "England in 1839, with particular re-
ference to her Naval and Diplomatic Position." This
little work is written with clearness and vigour. Its
author brings to the questions which he discusses a
large measure of the requisite knowledge ; and he urges
with great earnestness upon the country certain views
of its actual position—views which cannot, at the pre-
sent crisis, be too closely contemplated.
The pamphlet in question might be intitled " an
exposition of the treasons of Lord Palmerston." The
catalogue is absolutely startling; whilst the success of
the author in substantiating the charges which he pre-
fers against the Foreign Secretary is only too complete.
In discussing the question "why England has not been
attacked," by hostile foreign powers, the writer sug-
gests the true answer in the following passage :

" The pacification of the east and west, according to the
terms of the treaty of July, 1827, between England, France,
and Russia, and of the convention between England and the
United States, closing the disputed boundary question, must
have been irrevocably secured, but for the perversion, by
Lord Palmerston, in the first year of his employment, of
both those treaties, to the realisation of the very evils which
they were expressly framed to counteract, thus laying the
foundation of the aggressive designs of Russia, France, and
the United States, against England, which, but for the sup-
port of a British minister to the policy of Russia, they pro-
bably would never have dreamt of.
" From that hour, the friendship, the alliance, the moral,
diplomatic, naval, military, and financial means of England,
have been lent to foreign states against herself—the diplo-
macy and influence of foreign states lent in return, to support
a British minister against his deceived and betrayed country.

`•Had you been-at war with all the world, or with any
single foreign enemy, could your present position have been
realised ?

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE, APRIL 13.

The improvement in the Wheat market which we had occasion to
note in our report of last Saturday, was followed, on Tuesday, by a
further advance in priees, the inferior qualitie2 of Wheat realizing
9d to Is and the fine descriptions 6d per bushel above the quotations
of that day se'nnight. This increase of value, however, somewhat
checked the vend; and, with the subsequent supply of nearly
20,000 quarters from abroad, in time for entry at the duty of 2s 8d
per quarter, we have had little business passing.—Oats have met
only a limited enquiry, but there have been few offering, especially
of really good quality; cheice mealing are worth 3s 10d to 3s 1I d,
fair runs 8s 7d to 3s 8d per 451bs. The best Irish Oatmeal is held at
35s per 2401b5., but has latterly been again neglected.-50s to 56s
per sack may be considered current rates for the approved brands of
Irish Flour.—Bailey, Beans and Peas as last quoted.—The duty on
Foreign Wheat is uow 6s Sd par quarter.

M LIR RAY'S FLUID MAGNESIA.

HERBERT MAYO, Esq., the eminent Surgeon of the
Middlesex Hospital, has expressed his high approbation of
MURRAY'S FLUID MAGNESIA, al follows :
" I am very ready to allow you to usqii
testi-
mony to the efficacy of your Condensed S usion of Magnesia.
It is by far the best form in which th Medicine has been
prepared for use—the Magnesia being perfectly dissolved in
your preparation, never irritates the Stomach, and is not liable
to accumulate in the Bowels, as occasionally happens when
the Medicine is taken in the ordinary form. From profes-
sional indications of so much usefulness as this, I think it
but just not to withhold my public recommendation, which
I have not before given in favour of any remedy, although I
frequently see my name falsely used for this purpose.
" HERBERT MAYO."

In the early part of the week, the inquiry from the trade and for

tained in most descriptions ; those of Brazil and the common
qualities of Surat advanced id p lb. During the last two days,

lities of American being offered freely, the prices of these descrip-
tions have declined id tb, the market closing heavily at this re-
duction. Exporters have taken /000 Surat, 2500 American, 360
Pernambuco and 150 Maranham, and speculators 1500 American.

merous body of flatmen employed on this extensive and im-
portant navigation, have obtained the grant of the Sabbath,
the locks being ordered to be shut from twelve o'clock on
Saturday night till twelve o'clock on Sunday night. This
arrangement, so honourable to the trustees, as well as the
proprietors of vessels, will be a rich boon to the flatmen and
their families ; and that this noble act is duly appreciated,
appears evident from the following address, signed by those
most deeply interested in the subject :
" To the trustees of the Weaver navigation, and the pro-
.

prietors of the vessels trading upon the same.
"We, the undersigned, being flatmen and others, employed
on the river Weaver, while most of all thankful to Almighty
God, through our Lord Jesus Christ, for His great goodness
to us, desire also to return humble thanks to the honourable
the trustees of the navigation, and to our respected masters,
for the grant of the Sabbath, and as the best proof of our
gratitude or this great kindness, we pledge ourselves to en-
deavour, with God's blessing, to spend the Sabbath in a right
way, keeping from public-houses, and regularly attending
Divine worship, training up our children in the way they
should go, setting a good pattern before them, and striving
in all things to do our duty in that state of life into which it
has pleased God to call us."

We understand that of late years, the men employed on
this navigation have greatly improved in sobriety, steadiness,
and good conduct, pains having been taken to promote their
religious instruction by the Clergy on the line, and other
benevolent individuals, who have distributed among them the
Holy Scriptures and suitable tracts. Through the kindness
of their masters, some of these flatmen have for several years
enjoyed the privilege of exemption from Sunday labour, which
has not been abused, but quite the contrary. We feel as-
sured that were arrangements made upon all navigations
throughout the kingdom, for the grant of the Sabbath to the
boatmen, and care taken to promote their spiritual welfare,
most beneficial results would follow—God would be honoured,
and the poor man profited, while the masters would
experience the advantage of the change in the improve-
ment of their servants as to honesty, industry, and fidelity.
When the character of bargemen and boatmen in general is
so demoralized as to become proverbial, surely this is a sub-
ject which claims the most serious attention of the commer-
cial world.—Chester Courant.

THE WHIGS AND THE PEERAGE.

(From a Correspondent of the Morning Herald.)
The recent rapid accession of numbers to the peer-
age cannot fail to attract the notice of even the most
casual observer, and the unceremonious manner in
which the hangers-on of the Whig faction have been
" pitchforked" into that assembly shows how likely the
exercise of any constitutional authority, concerning the
upper branch of the legislature, rests in the hands of
those so long used to acts of spoliation—not only as
regards the legitimate ends and purposes of that body,
and the exercise of the prerogatives of the crown, but
with regard to the social rights and liberties of the peo-
ple at large. The following is a list of their doings
and undoings, in the way of promotions and creations,
for the last nine years, in their efforts to overcome the
opposition, and " swamp" the independence of that
branch of the legislature :

Wilson's Historical, Traditionary, and Imaginative Tales
of the Borders, and of Scotland. Part 66. Edinburgh :
Sutherland.

Of this admirable series of tales we have frequently had
to express our favourable opinion. As the work proceeds
our admiration is rather increased than diminished. The
number before us contains several tales of great merit. The
" Man of War's Man" possesses very great interest, as does
also "The Foundling at Sea." The other tales are " Clara
Douglas"—" A Sight from other Days"—" A Tale of Ven-
geance"—" The Assassin"—" The Three Brethren"—" The.
Mistake Rectifier —and " Second Thoughts arc best :" all
of which are well worth perusal.

The Probe. A Review of New Publications of Art, &c. No.
15. London : Southgate.
To the artist and the amateur this useful periodical must
prove a very welcome companion. It is extremely well con-
ducted, and assumes a very independent tone in its critical
remarks. The notices of works of art, in the various de-
partments of painting, sculpture, engraving, &c., which it
contains, will be found exceedingly valuable. Its literary
merits are of no ordinary character.

LITERARY NOTICES.

Blackwood's Magazine. December, 1839.
Blackwood closes the year most delectably. In the intro-
ductory article we have an elaborate essay on the works of
the greatest ornament of the Spanish -drama—Don Pedro
Calderon de la Berea. The translated extracts from the
dramas of this Shakspeare of the Peninsula are extremely
beautiful. The succeeding paper "On Agriculture," is,
delightfully written, and abounds with genuine touches of
fancy. " Lector on Lay Quibbling" is the quaint title of a
very interesting essay on verbal equivocation in all its rami-
fications.. The admirable article on " Colonial Neglect and
Foreign Propitiation," we have already transferred to our
columns. It is a masterly exposition of the evils which have
reselted from the commercial policy of the present govern.
ment. The truths which it contains cannot be too extensively
disseminated. The poem on " Queen Argenis" is evidently
from the pen of a master spirit. The criticisms on " Mil-
ton" are truly original in their character, and well worth
perusal. The review of the " Memoirs of Charles Ma-
thews" is a capital article. The essay on " The present
position of the Church of Scotland" is chiefly interesting to
the members of that church. " Dinner Real and Reputed"
is highly humorous. The continuation of " Ten Thousand
a Year" fully justifies our previous encomiums on this tale.
