No, my love, I was at my lawyer's—busy, very bus_

now, Maggy, can't you give some supper ?"
The daughter rang the bell, and ordered the supper to

;ent the car-

light in, just the supper for a traveller on a night like
that. _ _ _ _

" Pa," said the daughter when it was finished, " I hope
you are in good humour, for I have a favour to ask of
you," and she threw her arms round his neck, and looked
up into his face with that winning smile and those beau-
tiful dark eyes of hers. " I wish to give a ball on my
birthday—my eighteenth birthday. It will cost, oh ! a
sight of money; but you are a kind, good papa, and I
know you have been successful, or you would not have
been at your lawyer's."

" Yes, my darling," he said, fondly kissing her, " the
cotton speculation has turned out well. I sold all I had
of the article this afternoon, received the money, and took
it to my lawyer's, telling him to invest it in real estate.
I think I shall soon give up business."
"Oh ! do, do, papa. But you will give me this ball—
won't you ?" _

" You little teaze !" said the father, but he spoke smil-
ingly ; and putting his hand in his pocket, he took out a
note and placed it in his child's hand. " Take this, if it
is not enough you must have another, I suppose. But
don't trouble me about it any more."

The next Morning broke clear, but the snow was a foot
deep on the level, and here and there lay in huge drifts,
blocking up the doorways. At ten o'clock, the rich mer-
chant was on his way to his counting-room. He turned
down the same street up which he had come the preced-
ing evening. A crowd had gathered round the open cellar-
door of a ruined tenement. The merchant paused to in-
quire what was the matter.
" A woman, sir, has been found dead below there,"
said one of the speculators. " She starved to death, it is
said, and they have sent for the coroner. Her daughter
has just come back, after being out all night. I believe
she was begging. That's her moaning." .

" Ah !"

he had feared it would prove. The merchant was horror-
struck.

the negotiations with Lord Derby, and to bring them to
maturity. He remarked, in conclusion, that it was the
opinion of the Dock Committee that the purchase of the
North Shore should extend as far as the Rimrose Hotel.

and that there was a great deal of unnecessary mystery
evinced by Mr. Moore in carrying on the negociations
with Lord Derby, without ever consulting the Dock Com-
mittee or even Mr. Hartley. He (Mr. Evans) had never
been opposed to the purchase of the land at the north ;
on the contrary, he had always been in favour of it. He
objected to the plan of paying for the shore in the survey-
or's labour, and he was in favour of making an off-hand,
ready money bargain instead. He reminded the Council
that there were now in hands 78 acres of docks not yet in
use • and he gave it as his opinion, that if the Brunswick
Dock were devoted exclusively to he timber trade, it was
quite adequate to its present purposes. He observed, by
a circular he held in his hand, that there was rather a de-

dine than increase in the timber trade, and that the whole
of the tonnage from the colonies %as only 244,000 tons.
He must be excused frum giving credence to any of the

Bootle,

of the Dock Chairman, at the

n bringing before that body
the construction of Timber Docks at
,entleman remarked that :

" A good deal of misapprehension existed as to the
charges in Liverpool, and great pains had been taken to
make out that Liverpool was a dear port. He would just
call attention to the charges at present existing for a ship
of 700 tons coming into Liverpool, discharging a cargo of
timber, and going away again in ballast, and he would

contrast the charges here with the charges in Birkenhead,
Lancaster. London, Bristol, Gloucester, Hull, and the
Clyde. At present, a ship of 700 tons going into Birken-
head with timber, and storing it for twelve months, would

in Liverpool ; consequently, there was not much induce-
ment for him to go there. (Hear.) At Lancaster it would
cost him £143 less than in Liverpool ; at London, £145
more ; at Bristol, £25 more ; at Gloucester, £lll more ;
at Hull, £135 more; and in the Clyde, £162 less than in
Liverpool. When they got possession of the land at the
North Shore, he should be greatly mistaken if they were
not able to reduce their charges at Liverpool by a great

This statement has been excepted against by Mr.
M‘Gregor Laird, on behalf of the Birkenhead Dock
Company, who has just addressed a letter to the
press, containing a comparative statement, which he
says shows a saving of £5O ss. 6d. on the cargo of
a ship of 700 tons (say 900 loads of pine timber) in
favour of Birkenhead. As it is important that we
should be able to get at the truth in a matter where
authorities are conflicting, and in which the public
is so materially interested, we give here Mr. Laird's
statement :

Royal yacht, too, draws a good deal more water than is
always to be found at the mouth of the Leven. It is not
certain, therefore, that the Queen will come further up

than Greenock. Her Majesty will pay a visit to Brodick
and Lamlash, in the Island of Arran—then proceeding to
the Kyles of Bute and up Lochfine to Invarary, and back to
Locligilnhead, where the Sovereign will land and pass

Megrs. G. and J. Burns, while the royal yacht will pro-
ceed round the Mull of Cantire to Point Crinan, from

ence her Majesty and the Royal squadron will sail to
lona and Staffa, and thence by Lismore, Loch Linnhe,
and Loch Eli, to Fort-William. Here the Royal car-
riages will be in waiting to convey the Queen, Prince
Albert, and the attending Lords and Ladies to Ardverikie,
on the side of Loch Laggan, the ultimate destination of
the Royal party. The road from Fort-William to Ard-
verikie is an excellent one, and is only aboilt thirty miles
in extent. Wherever the Queen may be upon Sunday,
the 15th current, the Royal squadron will remain at anchor,
as a mark of respect for the day, and as an example to her
,(.1 the Majesty's subjects. . _

As Our readers may at once perceive, there are hun-
dreds of convenient spots on the Clyde which will com-
mand splendid views of the royal squadron as it moves up
the Firth, amidst the joyful demonstrations of a loyal
people. Amongst these, the view from the Clough I

number of corporal punishments Inflicted in her Alajesty'E
navy amounted last year t0'1,077, total number of lashes
32,366 ; in 1845, to 1,079, total number of lashes, 33,511
and in 1844, to 1,411, total number of lashes, 42,352

The highest number of lashes inflicted during the above
trennial period varied from 41 to 72, and the lowest from
3 to 6.

Ann Millner, at Lincoln, on Friday last, is incorrect.
The unfortunate woman hung herself in her cell a few
hours before the appointed time. An inquest was held on
the body on the following day, and a verdict of
,felo•de se
was returned. The error arose through the officials at
the gaol allowing a report to be circulated that Millner
had been privately executed within the walls of the prison.
EXECUTIONS ON CAPITAL CONVICTIONS.—By an offi-
ciadocument, printed by order •of the House of Com-
mons, it is shown that in five years to 1826 there were
5,286 persons convicted on capital charges, and 307 were
executed; in the next five years, 7,077 persons were con-
victed and 304 executed ; in the next. 3,877, out of which
175 were executed ; in the next, 767, out of which 41

convictions were 616, and the executions ao.

tric as the beginning. For fifteen years Napoleon saw no
more of his creditor. At the end of that time be disco-
vered him, and asked "why he had not applied to the
Emperor." The answer was, that he had no necessity for
the money, but was afraid of being compelled to quit his
retirement, where he lived happily practising horticulture.
Napoleon now paid his debt, as it may be presumed,
magnificently ; made him accept three hundred thousand
francs as a reimbursement from the Emperor for the thirty
thousand lent to the subaltern of artillery ; and besides,
made him director-general of the gardens of the crown

amount, is £160,000,000. Taking into view the simulta-
neous and still greater decline in the value of railway,
bank, and other stock, great part of which has fallen 20
and 30 per cent., it may safely be affirmed that the des-
truction of property, experienced by the nation in the last

eighteen months has been two hun-dred and fifty millions
sterling. This is ten times greater than the loss which
would have ensued if all the bank notes in the kingdom
had become worthless. And the whole of this loss, it
will be immediately shown, is to be set down to the mo-

netary laws; no part of it, or at least a most inconsider-
able part, is to be considered as arising from the visitation
of Providence, or causes over which we had no control."

THE COURT.

The Court is still at Osborne House, in the Isle of
Wight, where the Grand Duke Constantine, of Russia, is
staying on a visit to Her Majesty. The royal dinner party
on Wednesday included the Grand Duke, the Baron de
Brunow, the Earl and Countess of Wilton, Lord Palmer-
ston, Lord Jocelyn, &c.
THE QUEEN'S VISIT TO SCOTLAND.—The Queen and
Prince Consort intend to sail from Cowes in the Victoria and

Albert yacht, at an early hour on Thursday morning, on
their excursion to Scotland. It is understood that her Ma-
jesty will sail round the Land's End and along the Welsh
coast. She is expected to visit Milford, and arrangements
have been made for piloting the vesselsof theroyal squadron
across Caernarvon Bar, and through the Menai Straits.
Her Majesty will thus approach within a few hours' sail
of Liverpool. Her Majesty is expected also to visit the
Isle of Man on Sunday next the 15th instant, on her pro-
gress from the Menai Straits. A meeting of the commis-
sioners of harbours was held on Wednesday, and Captain
Gill, of the mail steamer Tynwald, was appointed to act
as pilot on the occasion. Other arrangements for the re-
ception of her Majesty are in progress. It is understood
that Earl Grey will be a very reluctant attendant upon the
Queen during her Majesty's• voyage. The noble lord suf-
fers extremely from sickness, when at sea, and prayed hard
to be excused, but as there was no other Secretary of State

at liberty to attend the Sovereign during her Majesty's ab-
sence from the seat of Government, his Lordship has no
alternative but to submit quietly to his hard fate.
