LONDON IN TIMES PAST.—Considering the enormous
and in many parts demoralized, population of London, it
is marvellous there should be so little personal insecurity.
and it is rather a rare occurrence for people in the habit
of going about town, to meet with the slightest molesta-
tion, by day or night, comparatively speaking, to times
past, as the following instance will serve to show :—At
Kensington, on Sunday evenings, a bell used to be rung
at intervals to muster the people returning to town, and
as soon as the multitude had assembled sufficiently strong
to insure mutual protection, it set off. George IV. and
the late Duke of York, when very younv, men, were stop-
ped one night in a hackney coach and robbed, on Hay-
hill, Berkeley-square. To cross Hounslow-heath or
Finchley-common, now both enclosed, after sunset, was
service of great danger; those who ventured were
nays well armed, and some few had even bail-proof ear-
In those days there was a house on Finchley-
flown as the place of rendezvous for high-

STEAM TO THE MEDITERRANEAN.

THE NEW SCREW STEAM-SHIP " ARNO."
We are, this week, called upon to chronicle another of
the successful efforts of the shipbuilders on the Clyde, in
the arrival here of a beautiful new screw-boat, named the
Arno, from the building-yard of Messrs. Reid and
Wood, of Port-Glasgow. These gentlemen were the
builders of our favourite mail steamer Europa, of the
Cunard line, whose regular passages across the Atlantic,
at ail seasons of the year, have never been surpassed.
Great expectations were, therefore, entertained that they
would produce something adding to their former fame,
and these expectations are now fully realized, for the
Arno herself is a beautiful specimen of skill in naval
architecture. Bring at Greenock on Saturday, we were
politely invited to take a passage in the new vessel, and,
going on board, we found her all ready fora start, but, in

"DEAR Sia,—Permir-me to thank you for the very great
amusement you have afforded to myself and friends during the
three weeks of your sojourn here. I believe there has not been,
a single guest at the Castle, since your arrival, who has not ex-
pressed to me the gratification they have experienced, not only
by.witnessiug your marvellous dexterity and professional ac-
quirements, but with the fund of wit, anecdote, and humour
with which yon have enlivened our evenings. My grand-
daughter has become, under your instructions, quite a profi-
cient in your art. Should you again travel north, I shall be—
at all times—most happy to see you at Kinfauns. Lady Gray

urned—the jest, and the tale, and the
necdote pushed each other aside in an almost endless
variety, and day dawned upon him, the happiest, the
pleasantest, and the most fascinating of companions. The
friends whom he admitted to intimacy may perhaps re-
cognise him, even in this hurried sketch, as he has often

appeared to them in the hospitalities of the Priory; but,
alas ! the look all-eloquent—the eye of fire—the tongue
of harmony—the exquisite address that gave a charm to
everything, and spell-bound those who heard him, are
gone for ever!—Curran and his Contemporaries.

CIIaISTMAS TALE.—The following is a brief extract
from the preface of the third volume of The Family
Friend, just published :—The present volume contains,

—Frank Illeanwell, or Mistaken Purposes. The tale
was designed by its author to supply ap nate reading
for the Christmas-tide—a love of po c teaching at this
season, through the agency of tn.' in the vestments of
fiction, having been widely devel ed. The editor believes
that the Christmas Story co mcd in this volume is not
inferior to any one hitherto blished in the special shape
of a Christmas Book. It • a tale that will invite a struggle
of tears and smiles, and nail), leave the latter triumphant.

In illustration of the .teapness of THE FRIEND, it may
be remarked that e CHRISTMAS STORY to which we
have referred, am nts in matter to more then one and a
half of the Ch ' tmas Books usually sold at FIVE SHIL-
LINGS but, i addition to this Tale. which is complete in
the Volume he purchaser receives about THREE HUN-
DRED AN !GUT pages of varied, and highly useful mat-
ter—the hole at half the price of the ordinary Christmas
Books. or are the printing and external embellishments
inferior to Works of higher price and pretensions. The
readers of the Liverpool Siandara may obtain the volume
of WAREING WEBB, CrIEGNIN, ROBINSON'S, DEIGHTON
and LAvonTr.s, and other Booksellers.

sent a deputation to Little Wootton' to invite him to become a

strong clogs on his feet, working on his farm. He declined to
give any other reply to their request than that, if elected, he
would serve them. He refused to canvass the constituency, or
to, take any part whatever in the matter. To the honour of
Ashton, the electors returned the Colonel, and lie sat as their
representative in the first Reform Parliament. In the estima

LIVERPOOL CORN EXCHANGE. APRIL 30

The small arrivals coastwise and from Ireland, noted on
Friday, have been but slightly increased, and beyond 7,831 qrs.
of Wheat from the Continental ports of Europe, we have re-
ceived very little produce of any kind thence; the American
States furnishing, since this day week, 15,794 qrs. of Indian
Corn, against 23,493 qrs. exported within the same period to
Ireland.

Our market this morning having been well attended by town
and country millers, and the previous amendment in other
markets, excited a tolerably active business, at an advance of
2d.. and in particular cases 3d. per 701bs. over the rates of this
day week. _ _ _

Flour was also in improved request, at an advance of 6d. to
Is. per sack, and barrels were held for somewhat higher prices.
In Barley and Malt no material change.

Beans were rather more enquired after, and the turn dearer.
Pease steady in value.
Having few good Mealing Oats here, such nuy be noted
iather dearer; and other kinds sustained the rates of this day
week. Oatmeal in fair request, at last week's prices.
Indian Corn 6d. to is. dearer than on this day week.
