Besides these, we learn that in Aylesbury the Conservative
gain by the registration is 12 votes; in Carlisle, 16; in Wey-
mouth, 4On'ls.lewport, 'l2; while in :Bridgenorth, the new
CouservatiVes are 41, the new Radical votes 12.- In ermine,
also; and in Salford, the ConserVatives claim the victory, but
we are furnished with no particulars. In Dudley, and several
other boroughs, the Radicals have resizned themselves to
their fate, and offer no further opposition. Besides the
above, there are many places in which the Conservative
ascendancy is so fully established that their success in the
registration is not thought worth recording ; and there are
several, the particulars of which will arrive after this abstract
shall have been sent to the press.

FROM THE COURIER BELGE, OCT. 28, 1838.—(Docks
public storehouses apropos of the Thames Haveu.) The ad
vantages of railroads are beginning to be understood in Bel
ium and on the continent generally, especially as relates tr,
the increased circulation of money, which the carrying trail
affords; and the very important undertaking of the Thuile
Haven Dock, at the mouth of the Thames, of which ou
readers have already had an opportunity of estimating (hi,
incalculabe advantages to the Belgian commerce, which in a
manner acquires the monopoly of the importations and ex-
portations of the continent by the addition to its tailroads.
If Belgium cannot yet rival the foreigner, we may console
ourselves in seeing the establishment of the Thames, which
in a manner forms the link that unites the commerce of the
continent with England, at the same time that it joins the
Ostend and Antwerp railroad with the London. The forma-
tion of this establishment appears to us of so indisputable an
advantage, the benefits resulting from it to Belgium so self-
evident, and the future prospects of this speculation, consi-
dered in a financial pointof view, so certain, that we think it
probable Our government will profit by the opportunity, and
possess itself of a part of the unretnaining unappropriated
shares; we shall, at all events, take care to keep our readers
informed upon this subject.
SPEAKING IN CHI: MM.—An unusual incident occurred a
few Sabbaths ago during public worship in a church in one
of the sea-poets on the Clyde. The clergyman was .reading
a portion of Scripture early in the forenoon service, when he
was interrupted by a voice calling, " 'Haul in it sheet
there!" The attention of the congregation was, of course,
directed to the quarter whence the voice issued, where a sailor
lad was discovered fast asleep in one of the views. Haul
in ! haul in !" continued the mariner, with increasing vehe-
mence, when he was awakened by the church officer, who
beckoned him to the door, whither he followed him, looking
bewildered and affronted. He there expressod his sorrow for
the interruption he had unconsciously occasioned ; and,
under the apprehension that the people would think he was
intoxicated, was desirous of returning. He stated, what
was. perfectly true, that his vessel had arrived in port that
morning, and that he had slept none during the past night,
and very little on the two previously. Much to his credit,
he added that his mother had charged him, at whatever port
he was on Sabbath, that he would be sure to attend the
church, and that he was in the habit, of strictly complying
with her injunctions. The officer.advised him to go home
and sleep till the afternoon, wlio he !night return refreshed,
which he did. Subsequent inquiry proved that the sailor is
a steady rewirectable young ms.u.—Sccitii4h Guardian.
