DRILLING THE WHITE SERGEANT.--" Ullly think, Mrs.
Smith !" raved Mrs. Raddle, " the wretch came home last
night at two in the morning, in a state of the most dreadful
absorption, and every shilling gone ! I stamped again with
fury, rushed into Piccadilly, and spent right and left !" Mrs.
S. looked inquiringly at Mrs. R., Mrs. R. looked interest-
ingly at Mrs. S., " What would you have done, my dear?
I looked everywhere, pockets, pouches, and fobs, even to
the boots. Ah ! S." "Ah ! R., you forgot the snuff-box !"
SUNDERLAND SHIPBUILDING.—Among the various and
still multiplying phenomena of trade and commerce, which,
in this age of enterprise and invention, offer themselves on
every hand, perhaps there is not one more calculated to ex-
cite astonishment than that presented by the banks of the
Wear; a river decidedly inferior in volume to some of its
neighbours and competitors, but which, notwithstanding, has
achieved a distinction hitherto unappt °ached by any other
tributary of ocean within the British empire. Those intimate
with the port of Sunderland need not be informed that we
allude to our shipbuilding, an art here practised to an extent
far exceeding the belief of strangers. Tell a personeunac-
quainted with the place, that the shores of the narrow Wear
annually send forth to the commerce of the world, on an
' average, according to Lloyd's register, no fewer than 250
new ships, each of 250 tons burthen, and you run some risk
of being rewarded with an incredulous smile, or met with a
plump and undisguised opinion about " throwingthe hatchet."
But such is the fact ; the whole United Kingdom annually
launches about a thousand new ships, and of those one fourth
are built in Sunderland.—Sunderland Herald.

PORTSMOUTH.—The Avon steamer, Lieutenant Pritcbaro,
and Pluto steamer, Lieutenant Blount, are running to and
fro with volunteer seamen for the ships fitting out. The
latter vessel is to accompany Captain Trotter's steam squa-
dron to the Niger River, afterwards to return to England.
The only ships equipping at this port are the Indus, Bi, Capt.
Sir James Stirling, and Tweed, 20, Commander Douglas.
There is, however, the same activity in public establishments
as heretofore; several large ships are rapidly approaching
to completion for commission, if required. The Cracker
tender, Mr. Hogge, master, is to return to Jersey in a few
days with provisions and stores for the cutter Seaflower, sta-
tioned here for the protection of the fishery.—Brighton
Gazette.

TILE PEEL FAMILY.—The introduction of calico-printing
into Lancashire is ascribed to the Messrs. Clayton, of Bam-
berbridge, near Preston, who began the business on a small
scale as early as the year 1764. They were followed, and
with great vigour, by Mr. Robert Peel, the grandfather of
the present Sir Robert Peel. Mr. Peel was originally a
yeoman farming his own estate, and lived at Cross, after-
wards caled Peelfold, near Blackburn. Being of an active
and enterprising disposition, he began the manufacture of
cotton, and he is 'mentioned as one of the first persons who
tried the carding cylinder. He also took up the printing
business, and he made his first experiments secretly in his
own house ; and the cloth, instead of being calendered. was
ironed by a female in the family, the pattern adopted being a
parsley leaf. Stimulated by the success of his experiments,
he embarked in the printing business with small business and
convenience, and shortly after removed to Brookside, a village
two miles from Blackburn. Here he carried on the business
for some years with the aid of his sons ; and by great appli-
cation, skillond enterprise, the concern was made eminently
prosperous. His eldest son, Robert, afterwards created a
baronet, possessed strong talents, which he devoted assidu-
ously to business from an Early age, and thus contributed
much to the success of the printing, spinning, and manufac-
turing business ; and in each of these branches the Peels soon
took a lead in Lancashire. They eagerly adopted every im-
provement suggested by others, and many improvements
originated in their own extensive establishments. As the
elder Mr. Peel had several sons, Robert quitted his father's
concern about 1773, and established himself with his uncle,
Mr. Haworth, and his future father-in-law, Mr. W. Yates,
at Bury, where the cotton-spinning and printing trades were
carried on for many years with pre-eminent success and on
a most extensive scale, and are indeed continued, through
other hands, to the present day. Mr. Peel, the father, with
his sons, and another Mr. Yates, established the printworks
at Church, and had also large works at Burnley, Salley Ab-
bey, and Foxhill-bank, and spinning mills at Altham, and
afterwards at Barton-upon-Trent, in Staffordshire. So widely
did these concerns branch out, and so liberally and skilfully
were they conducted, that they not only brought immense
wealth to the proprietors, but set an example to the whole
cotton trade, and trained up many of the most successful
printers and manufacturers in Lancashire.—Baines's History
of the Cotton Manufacturt
CHARTIST PROSPECTS.—It would not beat all surprising
if the chartists were now to reverse their agitation. Instead
of their agitating to bring Frost back, those who have more
wit than money will, probably, agitate to follow him. 'rbe
public does not seem to appreciate the admirable policy of
the whigs in making him a sort of Joseph at the court of
Port Arthur. The leading chartists are a troublesome set of
fellows, whom it is highly desirable for the whigs to get rid
of, only to escape their continual claims of old acquaintance-
ship, and promoting Frost and his companions is a capital
way of hinting to them, that, although they need look for no
favour at home, there are " certain others" in Van Deitnen's
commandLan d a t thtehi

care that their testimonials are strong enough. A eonvlction
for riot, sedition, or any other trifle of the kind will only sub-
' jeet them to inconvenience, like poor Feargus O'Connor,
without producing a sufficiently strong impression in their
favour on the government. They must, at least, prove to
the satisfaction of a judge and jury that they are dangerous
enough to deserve being sent from their country for their
country's good ;
and if they clan show, of the erection of a
scaffold for the purpose, that they
