Nuisance, but the Hotel is surrounded by Marine Villas,
with permanent residents.
If an incoming Tenant desired it, the present Tenant (the

Sir Walter Scott's " Waverley" (see Lockhart's " Life,"

current edition, which must have netted 7s. per copy, £7500,
and this is one out of 22 novels by the same author ! The
great collective edition of 48 volumes, with notes, called by
Mr. Lockhart " The Magnum," is understood to have reached
an average sale of 25,000 per volume. Mr. Lockhart says
that the sale of " Waverleym in that edition has reached
40,000 ! The total number of ss. volumes sold must there-
fore be 1,200,000, and the publisher's profits of these being
at least 2s. per volume, the gain on the edition must be already
£120,000 over and above that on the former publications of
each novel, and the copyright of the first of these novels does
not expire for four years.
I was at considerable pains to ascertain what Sir Walter
Scott had gained by his writings, now comprised in 80 volumes,
before I stated in my pamphlet, in answer to Sergeant Tal-
fourd's published speech, that it amouted to a quarter of a
million sterling, and if the matter is properly inquired into by
the House, that will be found below the mark.

LOWER DAY SCHOOL.

This scoool, at the date the last report, contained 221
pupils, under the charge of three masters, assisted by a few
monitors ; at present it contains 425 pupils, under the care
of ten masters. Having gone over in detail the state of the
various divisions of the Lower School, the report proceeds to
notice two important facts connected with the discipline and
management of this branch of the institution. It was for-
merly conducted on the monitorial system, and with corporal
punishment. The former has been entirely given up, as it is
found that boys cannot teach boys, and that the system tended
to demoralise the monitors, as well as those whom they
taught. The committee therefore appointed a sufficient
number of masters to each department, and the superior effi-
ciency of the Schools having become immediately manifest,
led to such a rapid increase in the number of pupils that the
additional salaries have been repaid. With regard to corpo-
ral punishment, the committee found that, from the mode of
instruction pursued, there is no use of it. The Pupils having
been placed under the care of active and intelligent masters,
trained to teach, and who thoroughly understand the art of
keeping the minds of their pupils in a state of voluntary and
efficient attention, they have become interested in their
studies, and, therefore, have neither opportunity nor disposi-
tion to work mischief. The discipline of the school has been
effeetually maintained without any punishment whatever, ex-
cept that of confinement during play hours.

were many in favour of the corn-laws.

grant to Maynooth College until after Easter.
Mr. O'CONNELL postponed his amendment for extending

Lord PALMERSTON stated, in reply to Sir S. Canning, that

the county courts bill and the small debts bill were nearly
ready for delivery.

LIVERPOOL COTTON MARKET, MARCH 15.

In the early part of the week there was a steady demand from the
trade, and prices were without change up to Wednesday, when the
arrival of the Great Western became known, and in consequence of
the accounts brought by her of a short crop being more strongly
confirmed than before, there was a very animated demand from
speculators, aided by a good inquiry from the trade, which has con-
tinued up to the present time, and the market closed in an excited
state, at an advance of id to id upon American, and 4d to id on
nearly all other descriptions, which have partaken of the general
briskness. 35,000 American, 2500 Pernambuco, 1500 Maranham,
700 Bahia, 1600 Carthagena and 2300 Surat were taken by specu-
lators, and 220 American for export.

HOUSE OF LORDS.-FRIDAY.

The royal assent was given by commission to the transfer
in aids bill and the poor relief (Ireland) act amendment bill.
Petitions were presented against the beer act, and for and
against additional church accommodation in Scotland.

Several petitions were presented in favour of the existing
corn-laws.

Lord BROUGHAM presented the Glasgow anti-corn-law
petition, and took occasion to quote from a speech of Mr.
Burke, not included in any of the published editions of his
works, a passage ascribing to the corn-laws the fluctuations
in the price of grain.
The Earl of WICKLOW quoted a passage from the same
eminent statement, in which he denounced the opinions of
citizens, on the subject of agriculture, as entitled to the same
deference that was paid to the dogmas of other ignorant and
presumptuous men.

There was some dispute upon the interpretation of Mr.
Burke's expressions.
Lord BROUGHAM then moved for a committee of the whole
house on the act for regulating the importation of foreign
corn, simply referring to his speech of the preceding night
for the arguments in its favour.
Lord MELBOURNE could recollect nothing that should
alter their lordships' decision, and the house negatived the
motion by a division of 61 to 7.—Adjourned,

LIBRARY.

A considerable addition has been made to the Library dur-
ing the past year. The Committee has expended upwards of
one hundred pounds in the purchase of well-selected books.
Very considerable donations of valuable works have been made
by George Holt and Andrew Melly, Esqrs. ; and a sub-Libra-
rian has been appointed. The readers have increased in a
much greater ratio than the library has been extended, and a
great deficiency of useful works prevails. Nearly orie thousand
persons are recorded in the library accounts as readers.
The Museum is now nearly completed, and will soon be
supplied with a fair collection of models of machines and
specimens in natural history. The attendance at the public
lectures during the past year has been great beyond all prece-
dent. The report enumerates the various courses which have
been delivered. Their subjects have been—Geology, Poland,
Poetry, the natural history of Mythology, the Articulated
and Molluscous Animals, the Tragic Characters of Shaks-
peare, Chemistry as applied to arts and manufactures, Astro-
nomy, Painting, English Vocal Harmony, Modelling, and
Pneumatics. Eighty-three lectures in all have been delivered,
and arrangements have been made for courses on Chemistry,
Annual Mechanics, and Electric Magnetism, which will oc-
cupy the lecture evenings till the midsummer holidays.

. WARDLE'S ESSENCE OF ANCHOVIES.
'ITHIL ST science is making its rapid strides in the various
V improvements that daily present themselves before the
public eye, the health, palate, and feelings of the e ' rean,etw,
valetudinarian, or the delicate invalid, appear by e many to
have been overlooked, such however, is not ase with the
whole, as this elegant and powerfully cone trated essence
(the result of years' unwearied exertion) will clearly demon-
strate. As a Fish Sauce, it is superior to any ancient or
modern, and the proprietor challenges all and every compe-
tition ; for the immediate production of Sandwiches it stands
unequalled, and Anchovy Paste, which makers themselves
admit will not keep, is, by it entirely superseded. It is
strongly and confidently recommended to Merchants, Cap-
tains, and others going abroad, riot being acted upon or in
any way injured by time or climate.

TO THE DOWAGER LADY HASTINGS.

" Buckingham Palace, Wednesday, March 13, 1839.
" Lady Portman apologised to me. She came to me the.
Sunday evening, while I was eating my bit of dinner, and told
me, with tears in her eyes, that, as all had ended so happily
for all parties !' she was anxious to say that as perhaps no
one had been so inveterate against me in speaking to the
Queen, she thought it right to do so, that I might not be-
lieve the Queen had a personal bias against me. She meant
to say, ' I am very sorry, but I should (such is my feeling
towards the Queen) have said the same of any one respecting
whom I (entertained ?) the same suspicions., I said, Oh,
Lady Portman, what surpriseS me is that you could entertain
those suspicions. You do not know me much, but youknew
enough of my people to have known they were impossible.'
I was too ill to discuss the manner in which they had been
acted upon ; so, after giving me a message of regret from the
Queen, who said if I would like to see her she would see me
that evening or next morning (the first I declined, not being
equal to it; and next day it was equally out of the question,
as I was suffering from nervous headache, and scarcely able
to speak,) and a request that, in waiting or out of waiting, I
would reside as her guest at the Palace as long as I liked, to
show how fully we are satisfied,' she left me. I gave her
my hand in token of forgiveness ; but when she asked to
come to me afterwards I declined. It is one thing to forgive
and another to forget. Thank God I can do the first, tont
my memory is stubborn.

He (Sir James Clark) began that day to speak to me
with some degree of feeling ; but, irritated by my denial,
became violent and coarse, and even attempted to browbeat
me."

" Buckingham Palace, April 6, 1839.
" It is remarkable from that second day (after Lady Flora's
arrival from Scotland,) the 11th of January, to the 23d day
of Februury, the idea, however or by whomsoever suggested

she never opened her lips to me."

THE MARQUIS OF TAVISTOCK TO THE MARQUIS OF

HASTINGS.

" Oakley, March 7, 1839.
" My dear Hastings—Since I wrote to you yesterday I
have had some conversation with Lady Tavistock on this
unfortunate subject, without saying that I had heard from
yoti. I find that 'the case, so far as she was concerned, ties
m a nutshell ; therefore I may as well state it to you at once.
" When she went to Buckingham Palace, just before the
meeting of Parliament, to attend the Queen to the theatres
and the House of Lords, she was informed of the opinion
that had unhappily been entertained of your sister's state of
health, and was requested to name it to Lord Melbourne,
as the proper person to advise upon it. Her first impulse
was to mention it herself to Lady Flora, as the more direct
and friendly course, conscious that the opinion in question
was altogether erroneous, or that she must have been mar-
ried clandestinely; This feeling was overruled, however, by
considerations which I need not detail to you. She accord-
ingly told Lord Melbourne just what I have repeated to you,
stating to him also her first intention of speaking to Lady
Flora..

" I did not ask Lady Tavistock, nor did she tell me (for
she is one of the most discreet of ladies), from whom she
had received her information, nor do I think she would feel
justified in doing so under any circumstances.
" Of course she must take the responsibility of having
named the subject to Lord Melbourne, and to Lord Mel-
bourne only. She considered it the best course to be adopt-
ed, and there she left it. Soon after this she left London
with me, and has since been informed, much to her joy and
relief, from her successor in waiting (Lady Portman), that
there is no foundation whatever for the suspicions that had
been excited. On every account, on Lady Flora's, and yours
especially, she has been much distressed, but is conscious of
having acted for the best in the painful position in which
she was placed. Having now, my dear Hastings, stated to
you, without reserve, all Lady Tavistock has told me that is
essential to her part of the case, I hope you will not press
me to do more, for I must tell you fairly that I do not think
she will give up her authority—even to me. I allude to the
opinion of the medical attendant, which you are aware was
borne out by appearances. It has been an unfortunate bu-
siness, but I am persuaded that the best intentions prevailed
among the few that were concerned in it.
" Your feelings have been naturally roused and your sus-
picions excited ; but, after the danger you have lately wit-
nesed of forming opinions rashly, I hope you will do nothing
publicly, except upon the fullest consideration and with the
best advice.

" Pray pardon this piece of gratuitous counsel, given in
the sincerity of friendship and regard; and believe me, dear
Hastings, ever truly yours, " TAVISTOCK."

LIVERPOOL CORN MARKET, SEPT. 14.
Our imports of British Grain, Flour, and Oatmeal, still continue
extremely, light. The arrivals of foreign produce consist of 6,750
qrs. of IN heat ; 530 qrs. of Barley; 680 qrs. of Peas; 860 qrs. of
Rye ; and 1,250 brls. of Flour. In addition to a good demand from
our local millers, several large purchases of Wheat have been made,
during the week, for shipment to Ireland, and, without anything
like speculation in the trade, prices have been fully maintained.
At our farmers' market, to.day, there was a fair show of samples
of new Wheat, the quality and condition good, and sales of which
were made at gs. 6d. to :Os. per ;01b.—ho change in the value of
Flour.—The market is literally bare of old Oats, nor, for the last
few days, have we had any supply of new a few Irish were sold

brought 385., and choice new as high as 40s. to 41s. per 2501b5.
Barley, on a diminished supply, has been in less demand: a little
good foreign has sold at bs 3d per 60Ibs.—Several parcels of foreign
Peas have been sold, for grinding purposes, at 40s to 42s per im-
perial qr.—Beans have met only a retail demand at our previous
quotations.—The duty on foreign Wheat remains at 6s 8d per

TO THE MARQUIS OF HASTINGS

" Buckingham Palace, May. , 1839.
" Lady Portman had my forgiveness as a Christian ; but I
declined ever after seeing or knowing her from her conduct.
" With regard to the Duchess of Kent, her Royal Highness
had a very warm conversation with her, on every bearing of
the transaction, and it was in that conversation Lady Portman
took upon herself to aver, from her experience as a married
woman, that there was no doubt I was in the situation they
alleged me to be in. _ _

"-It is upon that averment that Lady Portman stands com-
mitted and convicted as a slanderer, and out of that position
no ingenuity can take her ; and it was upon that feeling that
the Duchess declined seeing her, and restricted her explana-
tion of her conduct to a written one, which explanation her
Royal Highness merely acknowledged, and refgrred Lady
Portman to her Majesty's advisers."
Liverpool, Merseyside, England, 1839-09-17

LORD PORTMAN TO TIIE MARQUIS OF HASTINGS.

" Bryanston' March 17, 1839.
"My Lord—l have this day had the honour of receiving
your letter of the 14th, and am very sorry to find that you
have chosen to express yourself in so unfair a manner towards
Lady Portman, who has had hitherto no reason to suppose
that her conduct, in the discharge of her duty, has subjected
her to the slightest suspicion of having acted unfairly towards
your sister, and ' whose part in the business still remains to
you a mystery.' lam willing to attribute to your Wounded
feelings the undue warmth of your letter, and have, on calm
consideration, decided to lay aside my personal feelings on
its perusal, in the hope that may be informed by you here-
after that you are satisfied that Lady Portman has done only
her ditty.
" I will, under the conviction of this ultimate result, ad-
mit that, while you entertain your present feelings towards
Lady Portman, you are justified in declining to see her here •,
and still further admit that, if I was in yourposition, I should
desire to know the whole truth from her. I have therefore,
requested her to draw up a statement of such facts as are
within her knowledge connected with the discharge of her
duty ; and I enclose it herewith, taking leave to add that she
has not lengthened it by minute detail, but given the general
and essential substance of all that relates to her conduct. If,
however, any more particular statements have been made to
you, upon which explanation may be fairly required by you,
Lady Portman will be happy to afford it, so far as may relate
to herself.—l have the honour to be your obedient,
" PORTDIAN."
