Poetry. TIME AND LOVE. BY THE AUTHOR OF SeC. Poets tell us, that Time hath wings; And I think 'tis true, I think 'tis true He is one of the fleetest feathered things That ever flew, that ever flew! For have 1 not loved? and have 1 not felt How love's sweet hours to moments melt ? And swift with delight, Is day in its flight, And we chide the dawn that chases the night. Now when hath Time these rapid wings ?—• Now when doth Time thm swiftly fly ? I hear a bird that sweetly sings, And to my soul glad answer brings, When those we love are nigh Oh Time hath crutches as well as wings! And oft no creeping thing except: lie is one of the slowest creeping things That ever crept! that ever crept For have I not loved. yet day by day, Felt moments creep like ages away? And over my head, With feet of lead. Coldly, darkly, heavily tread 1 Now when doth Time thus lose his wings 1— Now when goes Time thus crawling on ? With other voice the sweet bird sings, And to my soul sad answer brings, • 1Vhen those we love are qone Wade') London Review. DREAM, As heavy sleep Hung on my dew-bathed eyelids, visions played About my waking fancy, and I saw The clouds roll back, that clad the eastern skies, Revealing Heaven in it's all-gorgeous pomp- Such pomp as may not be with aught on earth Justly compared,-The glittering steps that led To it's high gate of flaming carbuncle, Were each a radiant gem, that emerald light And ruby beams, and diamond fires shot forth- And lovely crpatures of embodied flame, With star-bright eyes, and rainbow-tinted plumes, Whose heavenly beauty shed around them rings Of-never dying glory, still were seen Ascending and descending those bright steps, The messengers to parth of peace and love. But there appeared above them One, who far Surpassed in majesty those shapes of light, E en as the sun the glow-worm's lamp outshines. It was tho Omnipotent th' Unutterable Whom my faint eyes could not behold, or bear On th' insufferable refulgency to gaze That burned around him 'Neath his feet appeared Th' unfading flowers of Paradise, commixed With sunset splendours that for ever blaze With glory unspeakable Before that Mighty One, I fearful sank In lowly adoration when His voice Came i; a flood of music on mine ears, Saying-" 1 am the God of Abraham." v

And 1 wonder what would become of the children if 1 did ? Xo; its enough for their father to lose his precious time, talking ahout politics, and bishops, and lords, anfl a pack of people who wouldn't care a pin if we hadn't a roof to cover well enough for-no, Caudle, no: I am not going to wony you I never worried you yet, and it isn't likely I should begin now, But that's always the way with you —always. I'm sure we should he the happiest couple alive, only YOI1 do so like to have all the talk to yourself. We're out upon pleasure, and therefore let's be comfortable. Still, 1 must say. it: when you like, you're an aggravating man, Caudle, and you know it What have you done now ? There. now we wont talk of it. No; let's go to sleep otherwise, we shall quanel-I know we shall..W1111t have you rlone, indeed ?

Saw what. indeed Of course, it was a planned thing-regularly seWed before you left London, Oh yes I 1ikp your innocence, Mr. Caudle; not knowing what 1 am talking about. It's a heart-breaking thing for a woman to say of her own husband hut you've been a wicked man to me, Yes and all your tossing and tumbling about in the bed won't mak., it any better. Oh, it's easy enough to call a woman dear sou! 1 must be very dear, indeed, to you. when you hring down Miss Pretty- man to-therf> now you needn't shout like a wild savage Do yon know that you're not in your own house-do you know that we're in lodgings ? What do you suppose the people will think of us ? You nepr1n't call out in that manner, for they can hear every word that's said. What do you say 1 Why don't hold my tongue then ? To he sure anything for an excuse with you. Anything to stop my mouth, Miss Prettyman's to follow you here, and I'm to say nothing. I know she has followed you; and if you were to go before a magistrate, and take a shilling oath to the contrary, I wouldn't believe you. No Caudle I wouldn't. TTery well, then ? ITa! what a heart you must have, to My very well;' and after the wife I've been to you, I'm to be brought from my own home-dragged down here to the sea- side—to he laughpd at before the tell me Do you think I didn't see how she looked at you-how she puckered up her farthing mouth—and—what ? Why did 1 kiss her then ? th8.t to rIo with it! Appearances are one thing, 1\lr. Caudle; and feelings are another. As if women can't kiss one another without meaning anything by it! And you-I could sce you-looked as cold and as fonnal at hpr as-well, Caudle I, be the hypocrite you are for the world! There, now I've heard all that story. I dare say she did come down to join her brother. How very lucky, though, that yon should he here, Ha! ha! how very lucky that—ugh ugh! ugh and with the cough I've got upon me-oh, you've a Iwart like a sea-side flint! Yes, that's right. That's just like your humanity.

Miss Prettyman's foot, now, would be another thing—no doubt, I thought when you would make me leave home-I thought we were coming here on pleasure; but it's always the way you embitter my life, The sooner that I'm out of the worLl, the better. What do you say ? Nothing 7 But I know what you mean, hetter than if you talked an hour. I only hope you'll get a better wife, that's all, Mr. Caudle. What? You'd not try? you ? I know you. In six months you'd fill up my place; yes, and dreadfully mr dear children would suffer for it, Caudle, if you roar in that way, the people will give us warn- ing to-morrow. Can't I be quiet then? like your artfulness; anything to make me hold my tongue. But we won't quarrel. I'm sure if it depended upon me. we might be as happy as doves. 1 mean it-and you needn't groan when I say it. Good night. Caudle. What do you say 1 Bless me! Well, rou are a dear soul, Caudle; anù if it wasn't for that Miss Prettyman—no, I am not torturing you, I know very well what I am doing, and I wouldn't torture you for the world; but you don't know what the feelings of a wife are,. Caudle; you don't. Caudle—I sar, Caudle. Just a word, dear. Weill Now, why should yon snap me up in that way. You want to go to sleep 1 So do I; hut that's no reason you should speak to me in that manner. You know. dear, you once promised to take mp to France. You don't recollect it ? like you; yon don't recollect many" things you've promised me; but 1 do. There's a boat goes on Wednesday for Boulogne, and comes back the day afterwards. What of it ? Why, for that time we could leave the children with the girls, and go nicely. Non8ense? Of course if 1 want anything it's always nonsense. Other men can take their wives half over the world; but you think it quitp enough to bring me down here to this hole of a place, where I know every pebble on the beach like an old acquaint- ance-where there's nothing to bp seen but the same machines -the same jetty—the same donkeys—the same everything. But then, I'd forgot; Margate has an attraction for you-Miss Prettyman's hare. No; I'm not censorious, and 1 wouldn't backbite an angel; but the way in which that young woman walks the sands at all hours—there there !-I've done I can't open my lips about that creature, but you always stonn, You know that 1 always wanted to go to France amI YOU bring me down here only on purpose that I should see the French Cliffs—just to tantalise me, and for nothing else. If I'd remained at home -and it was against my will I ever came here —I should never have thought of France but,—to have it staring in one's face all day. and not to be allowed to go it's worse than crupI. Mr. Caudle-its brutal. Other people can take their wives to Paris; but you always keep me moped up at home. And what for ? Why, that I may know nothing—yes just on purpose to make me look little, and for nothing else. Hea1;en bias the woman Ha you've good reason to say that, Mr. Caudle for I'm sure she's little blessed by you. She's bcen kept a prisoner all her life--has never gone anywhere-oh yes! that's your old excusc,-talking of the children. I want to go to France, and I should like to know what the children have to do with it ? They are not babies 1Ww-are they ? But you've always thrown the chilùren in my face. If Miss Pretty- man-there now do you hear what you've done-shouting in that manner ? The other lodgers are knocking overhead who do vou think will have the face to look at 'em to-morrow morn- ing 1 people's rest in that way Well, Caudle—I declare i'ts getting daylight, and what an obstinate man you are !-tell me, shall 1 go to France? I forget," says Caudle, "my precise answer; but I think 1 gave her a very wide permission to go somewhere-whereupon. though not without remonstrance as to the place-she went to sleep,-Punch,

A yonng lady, a few evenings since, said to her cavalier, Please, clasp my cloak." Certainly." said he, clasping his anns around her. "and the contents too." It has been observed that some spiders, with an instinctive sagacity, select, as a security from disturbance, the lids of the poor-boxes in churches! THE MUSIC THAT GOD LovEs,-God is pleased with no music from below so much as in the thanksgiving songs of relieved "widows, of supported orphans, of rejoicing and comforted and thankful persons.—Jeremy Taylor. A YANKEE VERDfcT,-The Wyoming Republican says-A suit was brought in our village last week for the collection of a note payable when Henry Clay was elected President. The Jury found, first. that the defendant should pay the Jury fees; second, that the defendant should pay the plaintiff ten dollars; third, that the defendant should kick the plaintiff out of the Court- room. ECONOMY IN THE POOR. This economy, is in all cases the more to be urged, because the difference in comforts the same families, at the same expense, well or ill-conducfed, is greater often than that of different families at different expenses. There is more difference, comparatively, in the mode of living from economy than from income; the deficiency from mcome may possibly be made up by increase of work or wages but the want of economy is irremediable, and the least income will undoubtedly do more wIth It than the greatest without it. No master can, in the first place, afford wages—next, no overseer can make allowances—lastly, no magistrate can order relief enough -on any calculation but that of their bein" severally- well managed. If the poor do not prudently 8erye themselves, none can effectively assist them; If they are not their own friends, none can effectively befriend them: the, idle in pro- curing, or the wasteful m usmg, the means of subsistence, have neither that supply which is alone due, and can be alone afforded, to the honest, industrious, and prudent. It highly, then. interests all conversant with the poor, who ought to be literally all, and it is hoped are most, to consult and co-operate with them in the practice of economy; it is far more useful to teach them to spend less, or to save a little, than t<1 giye them much ¡nort' -A111U1l, of 4griçwltwr"

;ft1íøttUanrottø. It is generally reported that the Earl of Lonsdale will retire from the office of Postmaster-General immediately after the prorogation of Parliament. Two Roman Catholics have been fined, at Glasgow, for a fierce assault on a Sheriffs-officer, and a boy who ac- companied him, because the man was carrying a nosegay in which were some orange lilies! A few days ago one of the Earl of Lonsdale's game- keepers shot a young woodcock about half grown, in Melkinthorpe Woods, near Lowther, and saw several young ones about the same age and size. The very interesting planet Saturn is now favourably situated for observation it rises during the coming week between g and 9 p.m., and will be due south about an hour after midnight. Saturn is nearly a thousand times as large as our own globe. Lieutenant-Phillpotts, of H.M.S. Hazard, whose con- duct during the unhappy conflict in New Zealand is the theme of universal praise, is the son of the Lord Bishop of Exeter. The total number of letters delivered in the United Kingdom in the year 1844 was 242 millions, which is an increase of nearly 22 millions on the previous year. The number before the reduction of the rate was 75 millions. ADMISSION OF ATTORNEYS.—The names of gentlemen who intend to apply for admission as attorneys of Her Majesty's Court of Queen's Bench, in next Michaelmas Term, amount to 179, of whom six are added to the list pursuant to Judge's order. WILLIAM AND MARX.—There is now residing in Ison- green, Nottingham, a young man, whose great great- grandfather, great-grandfather, grandfather, father, and himself, were all christened William, and who each mar- ried a wife named Mary. Query, addressed to those members of the Church of England, and especially to the Bishops, who voted in favour of the Maynooth Endowment Bill:—What is the difference between holding Roman doctrine, but not teaching it; ant^not holding Roman doctrine, but voting money to enable others to teach it?—English Churchman. The accounts from New Zealand have created dismay in Scotland; where a great portion of the colonists have friends and relations. Petitions for enquiry into the causes of the disorders have been extensively signed both in Edinburgh and Glasgow the Chief Magistrate of each place heading the signatures. The prospects of the harvest all over the country continue to he encouraging. In England the accounts give promise of an abundant grain-harvest, and the hay- crops are generally heavy. In Scotland, although the process of ripening proceeds somewhat tardily, the pros- pects are good, and the hay has been well got in. The crops in Ireland also promise great abundance. In a Committee of Privileges on Thursday week, the Peers decided that Lord Dunsandale had established his right to vote in the election of Representative Peers for Ireland; and that Mr. Kemeys Tynte and Mr. Cochrane had made out their claims as descendants of the co- heiresses in whom the Wharton Peerage fell into abeyance. INCREASED PRICE OF LONDON NEWSPAPERS.—The proprietors of the London papers are contemplating the increase of the price of their papers to sixpence, owing to the increased expenses of their enlarged papers and occa- sional supplements and we hear that all but one have agreed as to the fairness and good policy of the measure. The Earl of Galloway inaddressinghistenantry lately, touched upon various topics, and, among others, on the game laws. He earnestly desired the tenants to assist in preserving the game, but intimated his intention to allow full liberty for the destruction of rabbits and coursing of hares. MONUMENT TO SiR WILLIAM FOLLETT.—The com- mittee for raising a statue of our late representative has been formed, and comprises the Lord High Chancellor, Sir Robert Peel, the Earl of Devon. Lords Brougham, Denman, Langdale, and Campbell, and all the leading men of the Cabinet, the bench, and the bar.—Exeter Gazette. DISSOLUTION OF THE STONE.—A dissertation was read at the Medico-Physical Academia of Florence by Dr. Francesco Cervalleri, Professor of Anatomy and Surgery at Naples, the object of which was to show that calculi in the human bladder could be solved by an electro-chemical process. The professor himself, we believe, claims the merit of the discovery. A Vienna letter in the Observer of the Rhine, bee the following:—" On the 8th instant, the Archduke Fiancis, son of the Archduke Francis Charles, heir presumptive of the Crown, gave a specimen of his talent in natation by swimming across the large arm of the Danube in presence of an immense crowd of spectators. The Prince is only 15 years of age." A witness in the Crown Court, on Monday, twice gravely told one of the counsel for the prosecution, in a case of cattle stealing, that he could not identify the prisoner at the bar as the person of whom he bought the heifer at Beverley fair, as he could not see him distinctly when he made the purchase, "because it rained so fast. York- shire Gazette. THE COST OF PULLING A MAN'S NOSE.—John Her- bert, of Hawsker, farmer, was brought before the bench of magistrates, at Whitby, on Tuesday last, and fined £ 3 for pulling the most prominent part of the face of Mr. William Thompson, a neighbouring farmer, in rather an unceremonious manner.— Yorkshireman. Mr. Edward Bolton Clive, M.P., expired on Tuesday week, at an early hour, at his son's seat near Croydon. He was a Whig in politics, and had for a long series of years represented the city of Hereford, for which place a vacancy will be of course created. Mr. Seymour Fitz- gerald is a candidate for the representation of the place on the Conservative interest. The Whig-Radicals have in- duced Sir Robert Price, who formerly represented the county, to be their champion on the present occasion. A CONCLUSIVE REASON AGAINST A RAILWAY.—In the House of Lords Committee on the Oxford, Worcester, and Wolverhampton Railway, Lord Redesdale was ex- amined on Thursday week, on behalf of the parties against the line. His lordship's reason against it was, that it would go through a fox-huntingcountry, and would, in con- sequence, inconvenience sportsmen There are at present in the farm yard, at Chatsworth, under the management of Mr. Swaffing, the farm agent of the Duke of Devonshire, in that district, two bullocks most remarkable both for their size and symmetry, which are intended for the annual sale at Christmas. One of them, a beautiful small-boned creature, at present weighs upwards of 130 stones; whilst another, less symmetrical, but of more ponderous elephantine proportion, stands nearly 1 H hands high.—Derby Mercury. The Birmingham Old Gas Company has given notice that from the 1st of the present month the price of gas to consumers, under 5000 cubic feet per quarter, will be 6s. 8d. per 1000 to those consuming upwards of 5000 and under 25,000 cubic feet per quarter, 5s. 8d.; and to consumers above that quantity, 4s. 6d. per 1000 cubic feet. Meters supplied gratis and kept in repair. AN OLD WATCH.—Mr. Joseph Andrews, hatter, Mansfield, has now in his possession a watch which has been in his family for nearly two hundred years. It was made early in the reign of Charles the II, and bears date 1650. The present owner's grandfather wore the watch 70 years, and it is now in good condition and keeps time exceedingly well.—Nottingham Journal. A swallow was shot the other day at Salterhebble, near Halifax, and upon examining the little bird a small piece of parchment was found tied to one of its legs the parch- ment is about one inch-and-a-half in length, and an eighth- ofan-inchwide: upon one side is written, "J. Rovina y Clavi;" andunon the reverse, "Barcelona, 10th of March, 1845.Halifax Guardian. ADULTERATED CONFECTIONS.—A printed statement has been issued by the United Association of Journeyman Confectioners, stating that a substance called" mineral white"—which is simply plaster of Paris or stucco—is largely used in the manufacture of confections, and that the working-men have come to the resolution of exerting their power to put an end to this sort of adulteration. The component parts of the adulterated lozenges are 121bs. of plaster of Paris, 12lbs. of starch, and 12lbs of sugar-a pretty mess on which to exercise the digestive organs of tender stomachs. Some of the elder brethren of the Trinity Board, on Saturday, put down an iron tube of two feet six inches in diameter'into that part of the Goodwin Sands which is most dangerous, as a preliminary to the erection of a lighthouse thereon. It is on the Calipers, and at a short distance from a hank, which forms a steep declivity in the depth of ten fathoms. The tube descended iwenty-two feet into the sand in an astonishingly short time, by the application of Dr. Pott's process, in which atmospheric pressure is the principal agent. A FREAK OF FORTUNE.—James Steward, a poor man by trade a carpenter, residing in Somerstown, who has been for some time in great distress from want of em- ployment, last week received the pleasing intelligence that he had become the possessor of a large fortune by the death of a brother in India, who had there amassed considerable wealth. His wife was actually on the way to pledge an article for food, when the letter arrived, bearing the welcome news that he was the owner of £ 15,000.—Sun. CARDIGAN—There is not a single debtor at present confined in Cardigan Gaol.—An old woman in a fit of intoxication fell into the tire about 20days ago at Cardi- gan, and died on Saturday week, in consequence. An inquest was called by P.C. Scott, and a verdict returned that the woman was burned to death. No coroner was present.—It has been decided by the Poor Law Commis- sioners that the election of parish officers by ballot in an open vestry is illegal. MONSIEUR TalERS ON SLAVE EMANCIPATION.—"Far be it from us to treat such a sight with contempt! for these Siefs (Toussaint, Sonnerture, Dessalines, and Christophe) uming the authority to force their fellows to work, even tor their exclusive advantage those blacks submitting to it without any great profit to themselves, compensated solely by the idea that they were free, excite in us more esteem than the spectacle of the idleness, profligacy, and moral debasement exhibited by the negroes left to them- selves in the recently enfranchised colonies of England, where premature emancipation has proved a total failure!" -History of the Consulate and the Empire, Vol., iv., page 93, Colburn's authorised edition. MALLEABLE GLASS.—The Segusian M ercllry states that a most marvellous discovery has been made at St. Etienne, of rendering glass as malleable when cold as when first drawn from the pot. This substance, which is called silicon, combines with various substances producing the most brilliant colours, and can also be obtained opaque or transparent as chrystal. Its specific gravity is2,85, water being 1 00 It is very ductile and malleable, and neither air nor acids act upon it. The idea of discovering malleable glass is only ranked second to that of the philosopher's stone among alchemists, and the latter wtll doubtless be the next discovery maue, for the one is lis probable as the other. At the King's County Assizes, last week, Edward Day was tried for soliciting William Butler to murder a Mr. Duffy, of Banagher. The accused threw himself on the mercy of the Court. From the evidence it appeared, that he tempted Butler to shoot Duffy by an offer of four pounds for committing the crime: what the eirnity to- wards Duffy sprung from did not transpire. The man was found guilty and the next day sentence of death was recorded. CURIOUS FACT.—Yesterday se'nnight a field of wheat, the property of Mr. Lee, of Pottles-farm, Exminster, Devon, was reaped, yielding an average crop. Last year the field was sown with wheat, afterwards with turnips, and this year no seed-wheat has been sown, nor has any labour been bestowed upon it; consequently the wheat now produced must have been from what fell from the ears last year.— Exeter Flying Post. ARRIVAL OF THE KING OF THE NETHERLANDS.—His Majesty the King of the Netherlands, accompanied by a limited suite, landed at Woolwich at two o'clock on Thursday week, in the Dutch Government steamer Cyclops. His Majesty was received by the Earl of Had- dington, First Lord of the Admiralty Baron Dedel, his Majesty's Minister; Lieut. Gen. Lord Bloomfield, and other officers of the garrison; by Earl Moreton and the Hon. Captain Alexander Hood, appointed to attend the King during his sojourn in this conntry; and by a guard of honour of the Royal Marines. His Majesty proceeded by a special train to Gosport, and was received at Ports- mouth by His Royal Highness Prince Albert, who sailed over from the Isle of Wight to meet His Majesty. The Kino- and Prince Albert shortly after lett for Cowes in the Fairy yacht, and arrived at the place of their destina. tion soon after five o clock. THE NEW CONSERVATIVE Cu;n, ST. JAMES'S.—The drawing-rooms of this much admired structure are being gilded and decoratcd in a most costly manner; indeed so extensive are the works intended to be cairied out that the apartments will not be opened to the members this season. The club has recently been viewed by several hundred persons, including most of the nobility and gentry of both great parties. We may mention the names of his Royal Highness Prince Albert, his Royal Highness the Duke of Cambridge, Piince George of Cambridge, his Grace the Commander in Chief, her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge, the members of the late and present ministries, &c. A man has been killed in Kilkenny county by two thieves, for threatening to prosecute them. On the night of the ninth July, two men named John and James Cleary went to the house of Patrick Dumphy, a farmer, living at Rahatd, within two miles of Mullinavat, and were in the act of stealing his pigg when Dumphy heard them. He went out and told them he would pro- secute them upon which the two Clearys attacked and beat him in so unmerciful a manner that he died on the 15th. Next day, the two Clearys were arrested in Waterford where they were concealed for the purpose of escaping to America. The Hon. Captain Thomas Thurlow, brother of Lord Thurlow, having recently purchased an estate at Elmswell, a portion of it has been divided into 28 allotments for the labourers, which were taken possession of in the beginning of last month, and in three weeks were conver- ted from a wilderness into a garden, with a prospect of a good crop of potatoes, each man having been liberally supplied with manure by the same kind hands. On Thursday evening last, a supper was given to the allot- ment holders and their friends, to the number of 40, who expressed their warmest gratitude for the boon conferred upon them. and departed happy and contented before 11 o'clock.—Bury Post. PREVENTION OF CRIME.—Lord Denman, in his charge to the Worcestershire Grand Jury, made the following excellent remarks :—" It is not the punishment of men for crime that is the most effectual means of preventing it. We ought to remove its cause by attending to the wants of those in the humble ranks of life, and by pro- viding them with a useful and religious education, giving a higher moral tone and worthier aspirations to their minds and actions, thus elevate them from the degraded: position in which unfortunately too many of them now are. The desire and endeavour to benefit the people, and thus prevent crime which has been too long neglected, ought to actuate those placed in affluence and authority, instead of a total carelessness about the cause, and an over anxiety to punish the criminal—banish him from his family and friends, and consign him to the contaminating influences of a gaol. Our true duty is to prevent and not to punish. IRELAND.—A "grand demonstration," in favour of Repeal, took place at Wexford. on Wednesday week. Mr. O'C onnell's progress from Dublin to the IOCllS in quo was one scene of triumphal rejoicing." At Wexford, the crowd extended over a distance of five miles, and no less than 60,000 persons participated in the great meeting, which was held in a field hard by the town. I Mr. Talbot, an ex-Justice of the Peace, took the chair; and several resolutions were passed by acclamation in favour of the "Repeal." Mr. O'Connell held forth in his usual manner, mingling a vast deal of flowery ora- tory with earnest exhortations to both parties,O rangemen and Catholics, to combine in favour of the great cause of Repeal. A dinner was given in the evening, at which the arch-agitator favoured the company with a fresh out- burst of eloquence, and gave a significant "Notice to quit" to Sir T. Esmonde, Capt. Hatton, and Mr. Gore, the members for Wexford and New Ross. As to Mr. J. Power, the other county Member, Mr. O'Connell de- clared that he must turn out unless he immediately joined Conciliation Hall. The proceedings passed off without the slightest disturbance.

RAILWAY SPECULATORS THEIR COURSR WHEN THE EXCHANGES TURN. During the paot year ahollt two millions of Railway Shares have been issued to the public and as all these shares are at a premium, the public consider themselves in very comfortahlp ^h-cumstances. But their prosperity is yet to be increased fore they retire from the market to rest upon thpir gains. To realize now might be all very well; but, after a twelvemonth's experience in speculation, people become exceedingly shrewd, md perhaps a little covetous, and are not to be persuaded to give over till they hive got all that is to be had. The public will ijo on. therefore, till the market has reached its highest point: mil, with all the recent discussions ahout the Bank Charter Act and the foreign exchanges fresh in their recollection, they can easily foresee when that may be looked for; they will then step into the Stock Exchange, give orders for the sate of their Shares, and, with a complacent sense of their large profits and of the knowing way in which these have been achieved, fall back upon i well-earned competency. This is what the public intend to do and nothing can be more satisfactory than such a prospect. It is quite clear, too, that unless the few gentlemen of the Stock Exchange are shrewder than all the public put together, the plan is certain to succeed. In the first place, the public know that a crisis is sure to come 'hey are not slumbering in false security, but have got their ?yes open, and are only waiting their opportunity. They know ivell enough, that while the foreign exchanges continue in our "avour and gold steadilj flows in. prices will continue to rise because men arc not apt to let their gold lie idle, but will either nvest it themselves, or if nervous, lend it out upon interest and jood security to otners who are not so timid. In this state of :hings, therefore, it would be folly for any one to sell the men with money seeking investment must bid over each other's leads, and it would be a pity not to wait and see how far they ivill go. The public, consequently, will keep their eyes upon the weekly returns of the Bank, and when they see that the influx jf bullion lias ceased and an efilux has commenced, then will be :heir time to act, and to act with unanimity. "Under this view, the anticipations of plodding men who *emember the years I8-!(j and 1837, that the community are in langcr, will seem for the most part groundless. Let those who loubt the sagacity of the publie look at the eager practical- ooking faces that throng round the brokers' offices when the Jne o'clock Price-list is stuck up, and they will confess their n-ror. Let them look at the names of the bankers and merchants. lutliorities on currency and banking, who are now deep in Railway Shares, and they will feel it vain to assert that the less- informed persons who occupy the same boat can be in the slightest peril- These gentlemen will know when to realize and sven if there were no Bank returns to refer to, it would be jnough for others to observe and to imitate their movements. There are symptoms, however, that this national retirement from business to ease and luxury is not to be long delayed. The monetary tide has risen already far beyond all experience, ind the ebb must soon be looked for—perhaps indeed it is ilready begun, although the upper current is not yet changed. At all "events, things are at work to bring it about. The wealth in the shape of Railway Scrip with which each man's pocket is stuffed, has led, no doubt, to increased expenditure increased expenditure must lead to increased importations; and increased importations must, unfortunately, be met by increased pay- ments, to which the calls on Foreign Railways will form a disa- greeable addition. To make these payments, sales must be etfected-of manufactured goods if possible but if our foreign friends are not living quite so fast as ourselves, they will not need an over-stock of g")ods, and will prefer to take gold. To get the bank-notes wherewithal to procure the gold, something must be disposed of; goods at a sacrifice, land, houses, Consuls, or, last and dearest, Railway Shares. The man who buys any of these must sell something else to pay for them, (for it must be remembered that gold will no longer be flowing in and seeking investment); and thus, from a nation of buyers we are to become sudllenly converted into a nation of sellers. MOl1ey having come into demand, the fortunate holders of Itailwav Scrip—who have mostly invested every farthing within their reach without laying anything by fur future ca.I:5," which may then begin to get pretty frequent—will decline to borrow at 40 or 50 per cent, instead of 10 or 15, and the hour of realization will have arrived. The only chance against this realization being effected in a gratifying manner, consists in the possibility that the gentlemen of the Stock Exchange, to whom the Shares will he offered for sale, may, when they find that there are whole armies of sellers and no buyers, refuse not only to give the price which the Share-list of the period may indicate, but even to purchase upon any terms. It i..¡ to be feared that the readiness with whichjjthey bid for these securities" at the present moment, arises more from the certainty of being able to dispose of them at a fractional advance the next moment than from any abstract admiration of Railroad Shares in general; and hence that, eager as they seem now to do business at high premiums, they would, if the public were generously to give them the offer of the whole two million shares in one lot, even at a reduced price, ungratefully decline accepting it. In fairneSS, however, it must be borne in mind that there are perhaps not more than a hundred jobbers in the Share-market; ail(j as the purchase at anything like present premiums would require about ten millions sterling —to say nothing of the amount paid up, (and absorbed in Parliamentary expenses ?) which would come at least to about six millions more, or of some eighty millions still to be called for—these gentlemen might not °even if they had the best opinion in the world of the value%f the securitv, be prepared to draw, upon an emergency, for the cash required. If things shall turn out in this way, the public, instead of being independent, will be in a sad position. But it is to be hoped the gentlemen of the Stock Exchange will gene- rously look up their resources and provide for the demand that is coming upon them, Unless there were some probability of their acting in this fashion it would be impossible to account for the calmness with which shrewd and experienced City men daily extend their purchases and therefore there is room for hope. Supposing, however,' this confidence should prove fallacious, and things should take the fatal turn which has been hinted at, there is one consolation which will be open to all involved in the common ruin. Heretofore, when we have been visited by the consequences of over-speculation, the issuing-banks have con- tn \.ed, as fast as the foreign exchanges went down, to counteract the contraction of the currency which would otherwise have taken place, by a proportionate increase in their issues, and thus to defer the inevitable crash, with the certainty of causing it to be more extensive and protracted when it came. The Bank Charter Bill of iast session will now effectually preclude this palliative: when once the exchanges turn and the banking- reserve of the Bank of England is reduced to its lowest point, nothing can theu take place but the inflexible working of the law, under which the paper-circulation of the rountry will con- tract ùay by day in proportion to the gold withdrawn and fro:11 the dull unvarying pressure of this remorseless screw there will be no escape until it has done its work. If under its operation the railway schemes of the past year should fall from their pre- sent premiums, not to a discount but merely to par, about ten millions of wealth of which the public now fancy themselves possessed will have wholly evaporated while, if the shares of the old companies fall only to the point at which they stood this time last year, and from which they have risen not so much on account of increased dividends as from anticipations of wonder- ful effects from amalgamation, &c., an evaporation of about twelve millions more will he found to have taken place. When these events occur, with their long train of bankruptcies, embez- zlements, and suicidt's, the public will not be disposed to permit self-reproach to be added to their other afflictions- the new Rank Charter Act will receive their anathemas, as the cause of all the evil; and by hugging this consolation, many will contrive to pass through the misery that awaits them without even deriving the advantage of the lesson which that misery is ca cil- lated to teach —namely, a consciousness of their own immorality and folly.—Spectator.

CHURCH DISCIPLINE.—The Bishop of London's Church Discipline \('t Repeal, &e., Bill was issued on Friday, by order of the House of Lords. It consists of 14 clauses, and proposes to repeal the Act 3 and 4 Vict. c. 80, hut not so as to affect pending proceedings, or to revive 1 Hen. 7, c. I (an Act "fur Bishops and Parish Priests and other religious Men for dishonest Lives"). The Bill further provides that a Bishop may send any charge against a clerk in holy orders to the Court of appeal of the province, the Judge of which may make orders for expediting suits, &c. Archbishops and Bishops, members of the Privy Council, are proposed to be added loth-judicial com- mittee on all appeals under this Act. The Bishops are empowered by another clause to inhibit any party accused from performing the services of the Church, &c. Suits, however, are to be commenced within three years and not more than one suit is to be instituted in respect of the same ofFence. The act 27 Geo. Ill, c. 4,t, is not to apply- to suits against spiritual persons; but the present Bill is not to interfere with the institution of suits to establish civil rights. This Bill, too, is not to affect any authority of Archbishops and Bishops now exercised personally and without process in Court. THE BISHOP OF DURHAM'S CHARGE. Moiday. the Bishop of Durham delivered his Yisitorial Address to the Cletgy of his diocese, in the Church of St. Mary-le-bow, in the city of Durham. As this ceremony occurs only once in every fourth year, it generally excites considerable interest; and, on the pre- sent occasion, the Church was crowded with the Clergy. The Address, or Charcre, contains little, if any, of those stiiring topics which have recently attracted so much attention in these episcopal discourses. The reason of this may be found in the oponiiiij sentences, where the right reverend prelate congratulates his hearers, that while other dioceses were convulsed with agitations and divisions consequent Ot1 the introduction—the un- necessary, as he continued to think, introduction—of ob. solete usages, the diocese of Durham had been little agitated by an occasion of that sort." In other portions of the kinzdom (continued his lordship) differences on matters in themselves trivial. yet swelled into maunimde by the length into which adverse parties had aone, had called for an expression of their opinions from the hkhpst ecclesias'ical authorities, and threatened the whole Church with tfie fatal consequences of disunion. Here, however, the good sense, and pood feeling of the great majority of the Clergy had rendered ahorive the attempt to uphold customs extremely trivial, and in no place wha'ever had such an estrangement taken place between the minister and his parish- ioners as to call for the interference of the diocesan. Such a satisfactory state of things scarcely imposed the necessity of adverting to the subject at all hut he was anxious to offer a few remarks, in order that he nrght point out the generally mischievous effects which could not hil to flow, in particular, from any extreme opinions on questions connected with dis- puted points of theology. The right rev. prelate then proceeded to remark, that long continued and universal disuse afforded as strong grounds for considering it unnecessary to observe the law, as if a solemn act of the legislature had abolished that law." He reminded his Clergy that the interests of peace and charity, with the acknowledged advantages of union, should be of far greater moment in the eyes of Christian Clergymen than the details of rights and cere- monies, or the minutiae of observances. All, in short, "would do well to bear in mind the sound and practical advice of that consummate lawyer and statesman, as well as uptight man, Sir Thomas More—Jjeges abrogantur consiteludin", g-c." His lordship next deprecated all extreme opinions, all religious controversies, all harsh judgments of those from whom we might differ, and pre-eminently to consult as a sureguide "the infallible pages of Scripture." From neglecting to do this some were to be found who (uncon- sciously, perhaps, to themselves) "claimed the name of Protestant, and yet claimed and practised the very license and exemption from error as much as ever- did the Chureh of Rome, which those Protestants censure for its pretensions to infallibility, and for its defi- ciency of charity. By such proceedings they acted against their principles, which assured to every one the privilege of private judgment, and forbade them to mo- lest any one, or deprive him of any right to which he would otherwise be entitled merely because of any parti- cular mode of interpreting the Scriptures which he might have adopted, or might hereafter adopt." All this is very true—and so generally admitted to be true, that. had it formed no part of the right reverend prelate's address, we doubt whether any one of his auditors would have gone home less wise than he set out. His lordship, however, seems to have thought otherwise, for he repeated it nearly all over again in a subsequent part of the address. What follows is rather more to the purpose. If thoge who gloried in the name of Protestant would attend less to liu-iian theories, and search more diligently into the oracles of Div.ne truth, tirev would there discover how igno- rant and liahle to error all were hv nature-how little it became them to set themsdves up as judges of other men — how great was thp need every one of tiiern had for wa'chfu!- negs kst they should commit the gro-s mistake of refusing indulgence to others, while thev themselves rn ght be mistaken —•ind. above al!. what enlarged, comprehensive, and unfa- thomable love to all their brethren was contained in the pages of inspiration. Never let them forget with what eloquence as well as truth the qualities of that virtue were set forth by the apostle, that though prophecies might fail, and tonMies might cease—though knowledge itself might vanish awa\, yet cha- nty never faileth, that charity whose essence It was to suffer long and be kind, to envy not. which vaunteth not itself nor was puffed liP, which behaved not its If unseemly, which sought not her own, which was not easily provoked, thought no evil, rejoiced not in iniquity, but rejoiced in the truth, and which, in the triple constellation of Christian graces, was pro- nounced to be the greatest of them all. Alluding to the building of Churches, and to the com- parative neglect of this duty by those on whom it more especially devolyes-mill-owners, manufacturers, pro- prietors of mines, &c., who collect large masses of popu- lation in a locality, and, fattening upon their toil, leave them to perish spiritually and morally-the right rev. prelate observed- Deeply it was to he lamented that greater assistance was not given them in the building of new Churches, and the placing of Clergymen, with comfortable houses, by those whose own livings were guaranteed by the very circumstances which placed the masses they had ga'hered together under religious and moral superintendence. Wealth had fliwed on individuals by means of the labourer, whose skill and strength had been employed in extracting mineral treasures from the howels of the earth, or in facilitating the operations of the* manufacturer, improvements in navigation had been contem- poraneously going on; hut it too often happcnc(\.that those who had thus profited by the toil and industry of their country, men had forgotten that it was incumhent upon them to supply them with the means of grace, or to lay before them the hope of fu'urity—to raise them from earth to heaven. They ap- peared not 10 have reflected that the pious designs contem- plaled hy the gcclesiastical Commissioners were intended to be auxiliary to the bounty of individuals-to stimulate them to good, and to rouse them into action by the consciousness Ihat their own interests had bepn so greatly profiled hy a large accession of members who wonld require to he supplied with mental and spiritual food, as well as with that which was the lahnur of their own hands. Towards the conclusion of his address, the Bishop gives his advice to the younger portion of the Clergy, and urges them "to put some restraint upon their affections, and avoid early and improvident marriages." An impro- vident marriage is always to be avoided but an early marriage does not necessarily come under that disqualifi- cation; and certainly a Clergyman cannot marry too early, after he has once entered upon his sacred calling, if he be desirous of becoming useful and influential to the utmost extent. Marriage is his passport into the closets of his flock, & confers upon him a privilege which will enable him in a thousand instances to be their guide, their friend, their adviser, and their comforter. It is a recognised pledge, likewise, of his own propriety of conduct; while it removes the temptation to that clerical philandering which is so ineffably offensive in some of our unmarried fashionable preachers, both in the metropolis and in the provinces. We have seen the pulpit applied to all the uses of a box at the opera, except that the mutual oglin<r is carried on more sanctimoniously. Such ministers of the Gospel (if it be not an abuse of words so to call them) would do well to reflect upon the concluding sen- tence of the Bishop of Durham's address. A Clergyman, however, who was really deserving thc name, would not fail to remember that his respectability, anJ conSe- quently his usefulness, in the profession to which lie had devoted himself must depend on the proper discharge of his sacred obligations—in pure devotion to the high and holy ends of his ministry—in diligence in acquiring knowledge and in an earnest desire, to the best of his judgment, to impart that knowledge to others—in short, in a strict and incessant attention to all those proprieties of conduct which were so becoming to the Christian minister; and above all and beyond all things, in his determination to set forth always as much as in him lay peace and love among all Christian people, and especially amongst those who were or should be commuted to his charge,—Jqhn Bull,

HARVESTING GRAIN CROPS,— This was the subject for dis- cussion at the monthlv meeting of the Maidstone Farmers' Club, on Thursday week. C. G. Whittaker, Esq. the chair- man and about a dozen other members were present. The subject was discussed ahollt this liroe la-t year, when it was te<o!ved that bagging was the best mode of cutting wheat; aftel t! at mowing « as recommended,reapiug being considered rile least desirahle modp 10 he practised, and to this opinion the members present still adhered. A ¡¡ experiment was dc- tailed in which portions of a field of wheat were cut three weeks, two weeks, and One week hefole It was considered ah. solutely ripp; also one week and two weeks afterwards, the result of whirl) was Ihat the porrion cut two weeks before it was ripe produced the best sample. The Spalding variety of wheat v. as very highly spoken of. One member had grown of it as much as eiilit quarters seven bushels an acre— and on the average six quarters an acre. The following resolution was ultima cly agreed to:—'•Hesolved,—That it has been found desirable to cut wheat befoie it becomes sicklc-eared, and other grain rather green. That if m'-u can be got to bag wheat well, it is best to bag the next best plan is to mow; but both bagging and mowing must be done well, or dirt will pet into the sample, from the stalks that are torn up by the roots. That corn should always he made up II smal s'leaves. That when winter ihresbi ig is required, "heat after having been kept in the barn is genera ly be ter tli.m that kept in slack; but that for summer threshing the sample is rather improved hv being s'acked" Crt.Tiv 4TI.)N OK COTTAGE \I.I.OTMT.STS.—'The following is a short accoin; of the system I ronsi icr best adapted fir the most profitable cultivation of 1 acre of lanel, to SllÍt the cottager: — Divide the land into three equal parts, containing 51} perches each, Separa'e these portions ny small alleys of such a size as will permit a wheelbarro v to pass along with manure, and also for weeding the crops, or applying liquid manurp to thprn, The liquid manure '0 be collected It1 a well-constructed (auk suited to the cottagr-.

The subrfivisions of II", Ihird, or remaining portion, should he as follows :-20 perches planted with early Wellington and Ihtterspa Cabbages, to bp succeeded by trausplantpd Swedes 2 with Carrots; 4 with Parsnips; 3 with Beans; 3 with Peas; I with Onions t of a perch with Leeks. Lettuce, &c. 2 perches sown with various small seeds, such as Broccoli, pady York, Lettuce, and Savovs, to afford a supply of plants 10 fitl vacancies that may océur; -1 perches sown wilh Swedes, which, when thinned, will giye a supply of plants for dibbling after the 20 parches of early Cabbages; 4 perches sold with Mangold Wurzel for transplanting, after the early Potatoes mentioned in th" first division. Ten perches should be sown with Wheat, which will supply the family with nice bread and hot cake for Christmas. The Mangolds,Swedes, and Cabbage strappings will afford excellent feeding for pigs, and wiit pro- duce excellent pork when properly attended to. There should also be planted, eilher as standards or espaliers, 12 dwarf Apple-trees, 4 Ptum-trees, 4 I'car-trees, 4 dozen of Goose- berry-bushes, and 4 dozen of Currant-trees. By ailop irnr this system the cottager and his family will enjoy the sweets and comforts of their labour. The three portion, in which the land is divided can undergo a'ternate changes or rotations of cropping. and one of them should be trenched each succeeding 'ear. — Daniel Her/an, Practical Land Steward. Abridged from the Dublin, Farmers' Gazette. DRAINAGE A PERMANENT IMPROVEMENT. TIIE following is a condensed report of the evidence of Mr. Smith, of Deanston, on this subject, before the Lords' committee on charging settled estates for the expense of the operation :— The way in which r have found it best to drain land is to drain it in a thorough manner. In tbe first place to provide sufficient outiall for the wa'er from the di!b-roi>t fields or from the estate; thereafter to place drains parallel to each other at the distance which I have found in practice to he suitable for all varieties of soil; that dj3t;lnce. is from 18 to 23 feet. Then m iking the drains for 21 feet to 3 feet deep; never less than feet. The propriety of the material with which the op nrng of the drain is to be preserved will depend much on circum- stances. fn some situations broken stonei arc most suitable, and most economical for the purpose; in other situations tiles fIr tubes (which are of the same characeer) are the best for that purpose. I drained my estate in Scotland with stones entirely. I commenced about '25 years ago. The expense of draining per Scotch acre was £ 6, including main drains and all expenditure in drains. I have had an opportunity of ascertaining that those drains have remained efficient up to the present time. I made an inspection very recently, and did not find a spot indicating the slightest damp. I had the drains opened into, to SCVMóll places, and wherever they were opened 1 found them perfectly free from silt, and open for the water. I lie soil of that estate was various—some of it an alluvial clay in some of the hollows, some of it a sort of drift composed of the debris of the old red sandstone, and some of it a sort of moorish gravel. With regard to the expen- diture for 'he drainage, I am quite sure that the return was upwards "f 10 per cent, on the outlay. The farm was increased in value from about 23s. nn ncre, which was ra'her considered a high rent for it and since f have left the farm, and given up farmin 50" f "ndcrstaud has been offered for the farm. But that improvement is not all due to the drainage; there are many other things, such as fencing, and other arrangements; making the fields of a proper size,and a proper number forthe rotation; making roads and fences, and improving the con- dition of the bind. 0 If a tenant is allowed to remain 10 years on the land after lie has drained at his own cost, do you consider he is com- p'etely repaid the outlay?—In most cases I should say he would be. Which do yon think the best mode of draining, supposing thilt could be done at the same expense, tile draining 01' stone draining? — As regards permanency, I should say. especially in steep land, Ihat stnnr-s are better thall tiles, provided they are properly executed. It requires a little more care to execute draining with stones well, and therefore there is always a risk that they are not so well done, and tiles are to be preferred on that account. I should say where there is not much fall tiles would be preferable to stones. f) > you mean tiles or the tube tiles?—[ think it makes no difference. When you say that stones require greater care, is there any particular manner of laying them, or do you merely tumble them into the drain?—The drain ought to he cut as narrow as possible to the bottom. The stones ought to be broken to a veryequa) size, about the size of road metal they should then he put in carefully, and he well straighted on the surface after there is a sufficient quantity put in; and I think that from f) 10 8 inches of s'one is quite sufficient. Will not stones with angular points consolidate an I unite in one rn?ss, which roan stones would not do ? 1 do not see that that would make any material difference; it is the falling in of si!t among the stones that consolidates the drain; not the form if diP stones themselves. In orllcr tf) prevent that silt getting in, I recommend that the stones should be covered at first with a very thin tnd; and if a moorish turf can be had, so much the helter. After the turf is carefully laid on, and the meeting ends lapped over. so as to prevpnt any direct opening in'o the drain then 1 recommend as stiff soil as can be bad -clay, or if clay cannot be had, the stiff,;st soil thH can be obtained—should tie placed over the turf, and be well beaten or tramped down so as to prevent the pmsib jity of anv di ect opening from above into the open of the drain. Do you think that a pipe tile of an inch diameter is largo enough for draining most lands? —It depends upon the length of the drain. As far as regards the sufficiency of area to dis- charge the water quick enough, a tile of an inch in diameter will serve a great dis-ance. If the drai is are from 18 to 20 feet apart I should say you might discharge the water of a couple of hundred yar is, or perhaps more, by a pipe of an inch in bore; nevertheless I prefer a tube of larger diameter, as being more fitted to retain its place in the soil. FLOWER GARDEN A\T> SHRUBBERIES.—Climbing Hoses out of hloom trained against walls would be much improved next season by having aO large por.ion of the old wood cut cut; nailing or tying in as many of the strong young shoots as are necessary to replace those which have been removed. Clim- bers of all kinds should be constantly nailed or tied as they advance in growth, in order to prevent them from being inju- red by the wind. Karly planted beds covering the ground should be constantly weeded; and beds in which the plants have not advanced much in growth should be occasionally Watered, and hoed to keep the surface loose and clean. |i()|i and sweep walks daily. Pits and Frames.—S >w Mignonette for blooming early in autumn, and pot off plants out of borders for training as trees; train them to one stem, and keep the flowers pinched off as they appear; shifting occasionally into larger pots; grow them in a pit or frame until they are suffi- ciently large to be removed to the greenhouse. Cuttings of choice Verbenas should be put in for store plants next season. Sow Nemophila insignis for blooming in autumn, either in a bed or in pots for planting out. Dahlias-They will require great precautions for entrapping insects; dry bean-staiks, or shoit pieces of reeds, laid near where these flowers are plan'ed, will form harbours for them, from which they may be blown off every morning and killed. Secure the advancing shoots, to their respective stakes, and should dry weather ensue, water with liquid manure, mulch, &c. HARDY FRUIT AND KITCIIKN GARDEN.—The forcright shoots of Pear-trees against walls Of espalieis should he so reduced as to occasion no injurious degree of shade to the fruit now swelling, nor to the foliage of buds forming for future bearing. If previous directions have been attended to the tre -s should exhibit only a sprillkling of shoots anti these, already partially shortened, may now be cut back to withiu 3 inches of their bases All shoots that have pushed a second time, or that may afterwards do so, must be chocked. The shoots of Peach, and other trees of the stone-fruit kinds, should be kept neatly trained, but more especially the free exposure of their fn)i.t;o to light should be kept in view. It is improper to lay two shoots in a space which the foliage of one would sufficiently cover, whilst the other might be trained along an adjoining old naked branch, the covering of which is no disadvantage, but rather the contrary. See that nails have not been driven too near the fruit. Trench down Straw- berry plantations intended to be done away with as soon as the crop is gathered. Kitahen Garden.— Prepare ground for a firsi sowing of Flanders Spinach, the seeds of which are not prickly, neither are those of the Letttce-leaved Spinach, an excellent new variety for winter, with thick dark-green leaves. Finish planting out Celery and Broccoli. Sow Spanish Uadish; and some Karly Horn Carrots on a rich light border for drawing young. Make a sowing of ea ly York. Vanack, or other approved Cabbages. Take up Garlic and Shallots, when their teaveshave faded lay the bulbs on clean gravel, protecting them from rain, and storing them up when their coats are thoroughly dried. Gather herbs for drying before their flowers open; they should be spread out thinly and dried quickly.
