(FROM THE LITERARY SOUVENIR-") OH promise me to sing, love, My songs in after years, When the quiet eve shall Bring, love, The hour for blissful tears: When the busy world is still, love, When a few dear friends are nigh, When the moon is on the hiB, love, And the stars are in the sky! When the hearts where I would dwell, love, With a thought of me may thrill,— When the eyes that knew me well, love, With silent tears may fill: When the few who ne'er forget, love, Will fondly name my name, Or should they blame me, yet, love, Will love me, while they blame. J: care not for the praise, love, So sweet to minstrel's ear, For the laurel, and the bays, love, The critic, or his sneer: For the plaudit wealth can buy, love, Or the wreath that fame can bdng-, When yon sing them, if you sigh, love, And sigh them when you sing!

LITERARY NOTICES. DIBDIN'S SUNDAY LIBRARY.—The sixth and last volume of this work appeared on the first of the present month it contains twenty sermons, of which the first is by Archbishop Seeker, on a "General Fast," and the last by Bishop Porteus, on the" Day of Judgment"—The editor states that he intends to commence his Christian Classics," being a companion of the present work, with a Life of our Blessed Saviour," in one volume. RoscoE's NOVELIST LIBRARY.-The fith volume of this work, being the first of" Fielding's Tom Jones," has appeared; it contains upwards of 400 pages, with illustra- tions in Cruikshank's happiest style the binding, &c. are very elegant. To the admirers of our old standard novels this work is a great treat, furnishing them with the best productions of that description, during the last century, and in the very best style of modern art. A portrait of Fielding, from an original sketch by Hogarth, is prefixed to the title- page of this volume. DR. LARDNER'S CABINET CYCLOPAEDIA, VOLUME XXIV—The reputation of this work is too well known to require any eulogium from us; the present volume, on the manufacture of Iron and Steel, contains some highly inter- esting facts relative to that important branch of trade, from which we extract the following:- Hardening Steel—It may not be generally known, that the hardening of steel does not necessarily depend upon the immer- sion of the metal in liquid of any kind, but may be equallv ef- fected oy the application of cold. The hardening of cast iron articles by chilling the surface has already been mentioned, and the cutlers are well aware that the same phenomenon occurs in the case of a thin blade, placed when heated between the hammer and anvil faces when both are cold. Hardening Allvils.- In hardening anvils (as well as large ham- mers) the mass is not suddenly immersed in water, as is the me- thod with articles of steel generally such a course with so large a body would be unsuccessful, as the ebullition thereby caused would be so great, that the steel would be prevented from coming into that immediate contact with the water which is necessary to produce hardness. Instead, therefore, of instantly plunging the anvil, it is suspended by chains, and lowered by means of a wind- lass into a tank, and a stream of water from above is then suf- fered to run upon the steel face, until the latter be sufficiently cooled and, as it becomes tempered by the heat remaining in the body, it is dropped into the water below, and quenched till it be- comes quite cold. Introduction of Pit-coal in Iron Making.The history of our na- tive iron trade during what may be considered the era of transi- tion from the use of charcoal to pit coke, abounds with disastrous notices of the men who embarked in that sea of adventure, the confessedly hidden riches of which appeared perpetually to tan- talise one and the other with the hopes of discovering, under the form of charred pit-coal, a product more precious than the philo- sopher s stone unless, indeed, we could imagine that, under so specious an appellation, the Rosycrusian experiments really meant nothing more than metallum martis," the iron and steel of mo- dern tintes, which, though not possessed of the mystical power of transmuting all baser metals into gold alchemical^, do, never- theless, possess the more inestimable qualities of being capable of manufacture into articles so indis-pensable, that if tlley cuuld only be procured through the convertion of gold itself into the baser metaia, would be considered as inestimable even at such a price. The names of Dudley, Ravenson, Sturtevant, Wildman, and others, stand on record, soon after the interregnum, as spe- culators on the wide field of iron-working and the number of paten's which they obtained, the money they spent, and the mor- tification or ruin they severally experienced, collectively tend to prove that we are much indebted to them for having cleared the ground to such an extent. FRAZER S MAGAZINE.—Divested of its high Tory politics, the number of tlÙ Magazine for November, is as distinguished as ever for its fearless criticism on men and. things. Long extracts are given from a published letter of Mr. Hunt, in abuse of the Whigs, and from Cobbett, in detraction of Earl Grey, chiefly for the purpose of shewing that to suppose the Peers will pass any Bill founded on the principles of the last, "is idiotic." --The" Lays of the Twiddle School," is amusing and piquant, and "Parlia- mentary Eloquence" contains a just tribute to the eloquence of our highly-talented Lord Chancellor. The following are extracts from that paper :— ■" It would be difheult to invent a device which should indicate .the pêcul iar excellence of Brougham, for he is a uiviiad-minded' being: but we shall only attempt (however inadequately) to de- scribe him as he appears in the imposing attitude of an orator. As such, lie stands alone amongst living men and in certain im- portant attributes of eloquence, perhaps has never been surpassed. Hismenta) resources appear to include every variety of talent, DP matter how classified, or to what category it be reducible, An absolute command of language, uncommon tluencyof utterance. and inexhaustible versatilitv of voice, enable him to employ these vast intellectual powers to the greatest possible advantage, and tfitn instantaneous effect. His features, though sallow, corru- gated, and harshly developed, are spiritual and expressive not jomely, it is true, but neither are they repulsive nor uiipleasing. Impetuous without bluster, and energetic without inflation, his accents vary with the character of his subject, from < the small, still' whisper distinctly enunciated, to the impassioned burst that astounds by its power and awes by its solemnity. Burke, in his djeclamatioa, not unfrequently became hoarse and dissonant Chatham often repeated the last words of the preceding sentence to assist his memory; the elocution of Fox was usually turbid Aid disjointed, and the action of Grattan was awkward and inele- gant. None of these faults are attributable to Brougham for his language flows freely and fluently, without either interruption or embarrassment—his voice, at once clear and strong, is sonor- ous in its cadences, and almost unlimited in its compass-while there is a moral grandeur in his action which imparts dignity to eyery sentence that he utters. His oratory is all his own, was fabricated by himself, and with bis master it will die. To his vast and extensive learning, which seems equally to comprehend õóttltbe solid and superficial, we cannot refuse our tribute of ad- miration. His literary stores have been apparently accumulated by residing non multa sed multiim;" and he has torn the heart out of every book that he ever opened. In all his great speeches i a? 1S' *pj50.™|D.S'y» a ri°h substratum of heterogeneous know- ledge, overlaid with the graces of diction and subservient to the tervid impulse of his eloquence. Wherever he has taken parti- cular pains with the composition of his oratory, it assumes a quaint and antique air, which indicates a taste deeply imbued with the spirit of the olden time; and his sentences are constructed of Words that wise Bacon or brave Raleigh spake., 11 Ur.Hurd has recommended that a revival of old words should be attempted by none but great masters, and Lord Brougham undoubtedly, is not prohibited by the limitation nor do we by any means object to such a propensity in so influential a party at a time when a barbarous, illegitimate patois (scilicet Governess's English") is rapidly debilitating the native stamina of the lan- guage. His footsteps lllfY be often traced in the snow of the classics and, indeed, in almost all his perorations, one can find passages which have been verbally rendered from the ancients- while there are others in which the collocation of the words is rather in conformity with the genius of the Latin tongue, than ac- cordant with the idiom of the English. For example, I am re- solved to take my stand on the ancient ways of the constitution "To me much pondering on these matters," &c. but it is need- less to multiply iDstances which no classical scholar could have read without recognising. The mechanical structure of his com- position is what the French call the style periodique,' and it is a model which requires no common physical, as well as mental qualifications, to imitate with success. The prodigious sentences (which, however, contain nothing superfluous or redundant), ela- borate as a French funeral oration, and encumbered as they are, with parentheses, and digressions, and interjections, and unex- pected interpolations-if uttered by any one else would be per plexed and unintelligible but coming from him, are always lucid in their meaning, distinct in their details, and grammatical in their aggregate. This is accounted for bv the exquisite modula- lations of his voice, which mark the distinction between each member of the sentence, while the mutual dependence of the en- tire is preserved in the winding up of a fine period." wh;oIh-ert-Su.r,Unaffectedsimplicit-yofcharacterabout Br"ugham, DanionsSa> ,h Iu a"?

GLEANINGS. t Royal Wit. — It is known to all those who were honoured by the late King's confidence and society, that he not only pos- sessed the superficial accomplishments of dancing, riding ele- gantly, et cetera, but that he was a good Classic and Linguist. He even at times indulged in Latin puns and bons mots. Among the former, one made on the occasion of his going to a masquerade in defiauce to his Physician's advice, was very clever, but rather savoured of irreligion, for which reason we shall omit it. The following one will, however, give some idea of this talent. When Madame Mara was so much admired in her day, a difference of opinion arose as to her talent, on which one of the Court observed, that he who did not admire her vocal powers, ."outd certainly have no real taste for music.—" Certainly," replied His Ma- jesty (then Prince of Wales), for didcia non meruit qui non gustavit a Mara.—Sporting Magazine. Anecdote of Napoleon.— When Buonaparte had taken possession of Ancona, he ordered a contribution to be levied on the inhabi- tants, some of whom were strongly opposed to him. Whilst the then republican hero was reposing, after his arduous victories, a bold enemy of his dared to affix on the door of his quarters an in- sulting pasquinade, which threw him into a violent fit of passion, and impelled him to employ sundry measures of severity. The magistrates of the place were so frightened at the effects pro- duced by the hero's anger, that they hurried to his presence in a body to supplicate his forbearance. The conqueror received them with a frown that seemed to foretel a coming storm. The most dexterous politician of the embassy, however, addressed Buona- parte in these terms "We have heard, with grief and dismay, that a vile wretch has insulted the greatest general in the whole world, doubtless for causing the ruin of our city but we know that your Illitstrissitua Evcelleitza is too generous, not to take it in Buonaparte." Buonaparte, who was fond of ready wit, smiled at this address, and assured the magistrates of his protection. Blind Willie. -The following note, from the new edition of Peveril of the Peak, is appended to the story of Finella, where the King discovers, by a stratagem, that the deaf and dumb girl can both hear and speak :—■" This little piece of superstition was suggested by the following incident :-The Author of Waverley happened, to be standing by with other gentlemen, while the captain of the Selkirk Yeomanry was purchasing a horse for ihj use of his trumpeter. The animal offered was a handsome one, and neither the officer, who was an excellent jockey, nor any one present, could see any imperfection in wind or limb. But a person happened to pass, who was asked to give an opinion. This, man was called Blind Willie, who drove a small trade in cattle and horses, and what seemed as extraordinary, in watches', not- withstanding his having been born blind. He was accounted to possess a rare judgment in these subjects of traffic. So soon as he had examined the horse in question, heiinmediately pronounced it to have something of his own complaint, and in plain terms, stated it to be blind, or verging upon that imperfection, which was found to be the case on close examination. None present bad suspected this fault in the animal; which is not wonderful, con- sidering that it may frequently exist, without any appearance in the organ affected. Blind Willie being asked how he made a discovery imperceptible to so many gentlemen who had their eye- sight, explained, that after feeling the horse's limbs, he laid one hand on its heart, and drew the other briskly across the animal's eyes, when finding no increase of pulsation, in consequence of the latter motion he had come to the conclusion that the horse must be blind." Courage of British Sailors.—The following extraordinary feat of discipline, courage, and presence of mind, is related in a letter written from Malta, of the 5th ult.About the middle of August the Madagascar was cruising off Hydra. Captain Lyons. anxious to get hold of one of our smaller cruisers to carry forward some dispatches of importance, dispatched a large boat under command of Messrs. Otto and Elliot, whilst the Madagascar went between that island and the main land. At sunset the frigate was pulled down to the boat: about nine o'clock a blue light was burned to know the boat's position. A man was sent up the mast to answer the signal. The sparks from the blue light falling on the men below, they all pressed to one side, and the boat upset. Mr. Otto asked if they could swim, saying, at the same time, that if they maintained their discipline, and followed his orders, he would save them all. One man who could not swim Mr Otto took under his arm, and swam till he could support himself by taking hold of the boat, which was now keel up. Mr. Otto now dived under the boat, unhasped the masts, and unhooked the chains of the rigging; the boat thus freed was soon uprighted The man who could not swim, and another who was not good at it, were lifted into the stern of the boat They were now about four miles from the shore, and the men, acting implicitly under the command of their officers, laid hold of the painter, and manfully towed towards the shore, which they reached, after being six hours and a half in the water. In a state of nudity they entered a^ ruin which they found near the beach, and waited daylight. They then baled the boat dry, and found that of all that was on board of her oni i, one solitary oar remained. Invention seldom fails the brave in distress they pulled up some of the lining of the boat, which they broke into paddles, and again embarking on their native element, they paddled oft' in search of their ship. After some hours they were picked up and kindly treated, by a Greek schooner, which towed them to Spezzia, where they luckily found the frigate.—Captain Lyons was so pleased with the con- duct of the two young gentlemen, and particularly with the daring courage of Mr. Otto, that he called up all hands, and in the most animating language, thanked them for their brave and gallant conduct, saying at the same time, that none but British tars could have done this !"—The discipline of our tars is proverbial, but this is a fine instance of their devotion to command, their perseverance, and that manly courage which never forsake them.— On Mr. Otto being asked what he and his companion did during the night, in the true tar style replied, We rowed guard round the whole, to see that none lost their hold.Sheffield his. Life of an M. P.—The life of the regular Hohse-of-Coiii- mons-man is not a bed of roses. It is scarcely possible, at the first sight, to conceive any existence more wearisome. At half- past three o'clock he goes down to prayers he takes his seat among cold, desolate benches petitions Come on long unseason- able speeches ensue then, perhaps, the question is hunted down into the corner of a detail, where it is worried, mouthed, mumbled for three or four hours, and finally escapes, at last, to be hunted again at the next convenient opportunity. At seven, perhaps, our assidious senator escapes up-stairs to a plate of cold meat, our assidious senator escapes up-stairs to a plate of cold meat, and a glass of brandy and water and in half an hour afterwards he is fairly reseated till two, nay three o'clock in the morning. And perhaps this laborious gentleman never speaks himself; has no particular interest in the subjects discussed, has no ambition to gratify,—no purpose to answer. Perhaps for him all the pleasures and luxuries ot life await; cheerful societj', music, books, wine, love, ali that riches can purchase and youth enjsy. \\hat induces the choice hs has preferred ? Heaven onlv knows And vet the more wearisome a pursuit at the beginning, the more seductive it often becomes at the end. Business grows upon men more than pleasure only, indeed to men who do not enter into it themselves, the daily work of the House of Commons is scarcely business,—, totius negoti caput ac fontem ignorans." But it may he observed, that of all pursuits those which lead to public speaking generally engross and tyrannize the ruind the most. At the Universities, the members of a speaking club rarely think of any thing else but the club. On the stage, how invariably actors herd together,—-how invariably their conversation turns 011 the art and its professors. So in regard to the House. A party of members met at a dinner, fly at once to that interesting debate" —" Mr ^Stanley," "Sir Charles Wethereil," "the sugar re- fineries, and the indomitable bill." This it is that makes the society of members dull to the gay world, and insipid to women in particular. Few ladies, however ambitious in genera', long preserve much sympathy with the ParI iamenlary ambition of their husbands. And- here is a marked difference between the French ana the English women. The rewards which social distinction bestows in France are much more gratifving than those which it can grant in England yet in France, women value public reputa- tion and political honours much higher than those of the honours of the salon and it would be well for Englarei if here it were the same.—New Monthly Magazine.
THE LANDLORD—THE TENANT-AND…
THE LANDLORD—THE TENANT-AND THE LABOURER. (FR<?M THE "COUNTY CHRONICLE.") One of the most decisive conclusions that has uni- formly followed every investigation into the causes of Agri- cultural depression has been, that the interests of the Land- lord, the Tenant, and the Labourer are so completely inter- woven, that neither can materiall suffer without a certain extent affecting the other. With regerd to the former, it will be found that the per- tinacious adherence on the part of landlords to the obliga- tory covenants of their tenants' leases has been productive of much more general .disaster than would at first appear, pro- bable; As no revision of these contracts has taken place beyond the uncertain liberality displayed at each succeeding audit, the occupier contending with high rents on one side and low prices on the other-has or several vears past been rapidly running out his capital, that he has literally been compelled to abandon a portion of his land almost to sheep walks, because he lacked the means wherewith to stock and crop it. But an evil of still greater magnitude, if possible, has flowed from this state of things; for the third class, namely the Agricultural Labourer, has come in for a large share of the calamity. The farmer, in his degenerate condition, has necessarily been disqualified from continuing to employ his usual number of hands,; and hence it is, that the enemployed peasantry have, within the last four or five years, gradually augmented to a frightful extent, till we find men of all sta- tions, from the tenant up to the Government of the nation anxiously and busily engaged in devising feasible schemes for mitigating the pressure, and national plans for averting the consequences which idleness and poverty are sure to en- gender. Ask the farmer who rents three hundred acres if he is in the habit of employing, except in the hay season or harvest time, the same number of labourers this year that he did four or five years ago ? He will tell you that he would wish to do so, but he cannot. He has not the means of cultivating his land with profit, his capital is gone an event which he would not now have to deplore had his landlord at the former pe- riod made a liberal reduction in his rent—not a return of an indefinite portion on the audit day, but an actual and perma- nent reduction. Had such an arrangement, we say, taken place five years ago, to the extent of ONE-THIRD or 33 per cent. throughout the kingdom, we should not at the present moment have to lament the pauperism and wretchedness which are desolating the rural districts. If, then, it be true, as on enquiry we know it will be found that the continuance of high and exorbitant rents has been one of the main causes of the farmer's difficulties-if, by pe- riodically complying with his landlord's rigorous demands, heis no longer able to farm with his usual skill, and tuÜerive from his indnstry the requital of a remunerative return—and < if, moreover, the superabundance of unemployed workmen has arisen from this state of things—has it not become vitally expedient that the Landlords should loose no time in ascer- taining whether the power to restore better prospects to the other two classes does not almost exclusively attach to them- selves ? When we have positive evidence that in some parishes no- thing but the want of capital on the part of the occupier is the cause of labourers being out of employment—and that where a landlord has advanced a sum for his tenant's use it has turned to the two-fold advantage of absorbing such re- dundancy, and of improving the capabilities of the land-it were worse than fatuity on the part of the landlords not to co-operate with the philanthropists of the day in stemming the progress of this increasing calamity. Their interest, in- deed, is so obviously mixed up with the tenant's ability to cultivate his land with advantage, th.t nothing but a new compact between them can prevent a constant resigna- tion of farms, and the irretrievable ruin of men whose long struggling entitles them to a better fate. We call upon the Landlords of England to weigh well the following important facts—and having done so, we would ask them, whether the adoption of the system they suggest wonld not go far to regenerate the condition of those classes they are connected with—and that by so promoting the views of their tenantry they would eventually improve their own estates ? The Rev. illr. Faithful, a clergyman, who has resided nearly twenty years in the parish of Hatfield, in Hertford- shire, and in the immediate neighbourhood of Lord Salisbury's residence, gave the following testimony (corroborative of the foregoing remarks) before the Poor Laws' Committee a few months since. We regard it as the most valuable communi- cation that has yet been published by their Lordships. q- In reference to the answer you gave, stating that there was sufficient perpetual employment for all the labourers in the parish, did you state, that from your own opinion, or from the informa- tion of farmers who have communicated that to you t -A. From the information of the farmers. I asked them at ray last tithe- dinner, where I met them in great numbers, that question—whe- ther, if they had capital enabling them to employ the whole, they would have employment for all residing or, belongin to the pa- rish? They said yes: and they went further; they said they should be very glad if the landlord wonld advance'the money, to pay an additional rent for the money so advanced, from a convic- tion that it would improve their land. Q Is it within your knowledge that a farmer in the parish has laid out considerable^sums upon his land, the money being ad- vanced by his landlord, and he paying an interest of five per cent. in addition to his rent?-A. One farmer has done so Q. Was that farm supposed to be of very indifferent quality? -A. Yes. Q. What, in your opinion, is the present state of it?-A. I think it is very much improved, and perhaps as productive as any in the immediate neighbourhood Q. At the present prices is it likely to remunerate the man who has expended the money, ?—A. I think it is, after the improve- ments made upon the farm by draining, &c. Q. At the present prices, would the farmers be likely to be re- munerated, supposing they could prevail upon their landlords to lend that capital so employed on the improvement of the farms ?—■ A. Yes, I think it would in the. best, but not inferior lands. Q. Would they be able, upon the average of prices of the last three years !-A. If it would remunerate them at all, it would re- munerate them with that additional expense. Q. As the prices have been during the last four years, would they stand any chance of being remunerated ?—A. No, I do not think they would, on the inferior lands. Q. Do you not think that this additional capital would only delay for a greater time the ruin that was impending /—A. No. I cannot think that; for I still think, that whatever the prices may be, every improvement of the land would give them a greater probability,of success. Q. The land wanted draining and manuring in the case you re- ferred to?-A. Yes. Q. Do you know whether the fanners to whom you alluded has paid the interest on the capital?-A. He pays the interest regu- larly. Q. Do you suppose that that individual to whom capital has been thus advanced is making sufficient profit upon his farm?— A. I think he is. Q. Have you had any reason for thinking that others, if placed in the same situation, would not equally have a chance of obtaining fair returns ?- A. I think that many of the others would. I think, in most cases, it would be so beneficial to them, that they wou!d be remunerated. Q. If farming is to go on in the way it has lately, will not those who have capital soon be without any ?—A. I am afraid so. Mr. Hodges, one of the County Member" for Kent, has three questions put to him which completely confirm our views- Q. "Y ÓIl say that the produce of corn is considerably less in the district in which you reside [Weald of Kent] than formerly to what do you attribute that?-A. To the loss of capital on the part of the farmer. Q. And to the employment of fewer labourers ?-A. The em- ployment of fewer labourers follows the loss of capital. Q. The loss of capital you attribute to the want of remunerat- ing prices ?-A Yes his capital has been dwindling gradually away till it is gone down to nothing." One extract from the Rev. Mr. Becker's evidence. In the course of a long explanatory reply to a question, we meet with the following opposite passage In consequence of the general liberality of landlords in this county [Notts], and from their having found employment for so many labourers, their tenants have been enabled to give adequate wages for supporting the Agricultural population, parochial relief, except in cases of infirmity and sickness." A little further on, the Rev. Gentleman returns to the subject, and says—" Wherever there is distress, and the Agricultural population is not in full employment, it is most ad- visable that landlords should improve their estates in preference to their making returns for rent due. In-all cases whet-erects are too high, permanent abatement ought to be made, or ruin is in- evitable but instead of making returns of rent on account of casual losses, the liberality of proprietors would ultimately prove more advantageous to themselves and their tenants by making perma- nent improvements, than if the latter were assisted in any other manner." If these facts will not arouse the landlords to a sense of their own interest, then is truth unavailing and conviction useless.

RIOTS AT COVENTRY.—In consequence of some ma- nufacturers having lately given out work at a reduced price, a large mob attacked a new factory situate in the New- buildings, in which were some power-looms. Having smashed the looms and destroyed everything in the factory, they set fire to the premises, and in a few moments the whole was in a blaze. The mob then took Mr. Beck, the proprietor of the premises, and placed him in a cart, which they drove in triumph through the different streets. It was formerly the custom, in all disputes about wages, to "Jack- ass" an obnoxious manufacturer—that is, they placed him on a donkey with his face towards the tail, which'they obliged their victim to hold in his hands as a substitute for a bridle, and in this state they paraded him through the prin- cipalstreets.—The magistrates acted with the greatest promp- titude, and the mob was shortly dispersed. Mit. HUXT.—This political mountebank, has, during 11 the past week been engaged in visiting the populous towns of Lancashire and Yorkshire. On Friday he arrived at Blackburn, and in his harangue to the mob from the Old Bull Inn, he was alike profuse in abuse both of the Whigs and Tories, but more particularly the former. On the fol- lowing evening he was met by llispartizans and escorted into Preston, where he addressed the people at considerable length. On Monday morning, information was given to the master-spinners that it was the intention of the mob to visit their mills, and turn out the spinners. The masters conse- quently met, and resolved to act according to circumstances. A little before noon a large mob was collected, and marched in procession through the streets, with drums, fifes, and banners, and proceeded to the different manufactories and public works, bearing down all opposition, and insisting on the men being turned out. It was then their intention to hold a meeting on Gallows-hill, but the weather being so very tempestuous, they separated without doing more mis- chief than was occasioned by breaking into the factories, and destroying some books. During the day they broke into 11 y the lock-up, and set two prisoners at liberty, who had been taken up for rioting; they burnt some things in the lock-up, and destroyed a few books of little value. Since Monday no meeting or disturbance of any kind has taken place; and the town is perfectly quiet. A party of the 80th Regiment arrived on Tuesday morning from Blackburn, since which all has been peaceable; all the outrages were committed in the open day, and only one iudividual has been arrested they had an adjourned meeting on Tuesday night, after which they dispersed quietly. How far the presence of Mr. Hunt in that town may be connected with these outrages we cannot say, but we are informed that seeing the approaching storm, he, instead of endeavouring-to appease the wrath of his disciples, slunk out of the town incog. Sir C. Wolseley was in Preston last week, having gone there, as he states in a printed address, with the intention of confronting Mr. Hunt, and denying the statement which the latter is said to have made at Manchester to the effect that lie (Sir Charles) had waited upon him (Mr Hunt) on behalf of the Whigs, with an offer of 12,0001.. and a seat in Parliament, if he would join their party as Sir Robert Wilson had done. Sir Charles states that he left Worseley-bridge with this intent, on learning that Mr. Hunt was to enter Preston on Wednes- day; but finding that his visit was postponed till Saturday, he (Sir Charles) was obliged to content himself with a written denial of the allegation above stated, as business would not admit of his remaining in the town until Mr. Hunt made his appearance. Mr. Hunt, who travels under the name of "Irving," has also visited Leeds, Bolton, &c. At Leeds on Tuesday a violent personal squabble took place between Hunt and Mr. Baines, of the Leeds Mercury, in which very unceremonious language was used on both sides. Mr. Baines at length could not obtain a hearing, and Hunt had it all his own way. He desired those who believed the Reform Bill was a delusion and would not benefit the working classes, to hold up their hands, and about half the assembly, consisting it is said ofseven thousand persons gave him their suffrages. The meeting afterwards quietly dis- persed. TUK ITALIAN — Adjourned Inquest.—Vt live /clock, on Thursday afternoon, he Coroner and Jury re- assembled at the Unicorn public-house, corner of Henrietta- street, Covent-Garden, to proceed with the enquiry of the circumstances connected with the mysterious death of the Italian boy, whose case was stated in our last. Several im- portant witnesses were examined, after which the Jury con- sulted for about 20 minutes, and at half-past ten, returned the following verdict: Wilful murder against some person or persons unknown and the Jury beg leave to add to the above evidence adduced before them, that a strong suspi- cion rests upon their minds against Bishop and Williams, and they trust that a strict enquiry will be instituted in the case by the Police Magistrates." In consequence of the evi- dence elicited at the inquest, Mr. Corder, who has taken a most active part in the endeavour to elucidate the mystery of the death of the poor boy, received on Friday a commu- nication from Government, stating the'determination of the Secretary of State for the Home Department to employ the amplest means within his power for the detection of the mur- ders of the poor boy. Mr. Thomas also received orders to employ his men, without reserve as to labour or expense, for the same object. Mr. T. in consequense proceeded on Fri- day afternoon with J. Higgins, the constable, to the resi- dence of Bishop and Williams, where they found Mrs. Bishop with a numerous family of children, and Mrs. Williams her daughter. Mr. Thomas, on his visit, was struck with the re- markable situation and appearance of the house. It is a sort of cottage, in a lonely situation not a lamp within a quarter of a mile of the spot, and in a ruinous condition—the back door opening upon a sort of waste or common. In the house were found a quantity of tools of the description used by re- surrection men, which Mr. Thomas seized, and took Mrs. Bishop and Mrs. Williams into custody. They were imme- diately carried to Bow street, and underwent an examina- tion before Mr, Minshtill. Mr. Thomas being sworn, stated that he had apprehended the prisoners in consequence of information which he had received, and he charged them on suspicion of being accessaries after the fact in the murder of the boy. Mrs. Bishop being cautioned that whatever she might say might be made use of against her hereafter, said she had nothing to fear, because she had done nothing wrong. She admitted that her husband was what was called a resur- rection man; but as she obtained a living for herself ant! children by her own exertions, she never troubled herself about his business. She was aware of the charge against her husband, but was perfectly innocent of it. Mrs. Wil- liams was then asked by Mr. Minshul if she had anything to say, and she stated that her husband's real name was Head-that her name was Rhoda Head—that she had been married to him seven weeks—that he was originally a brick layer, but had followed the trade of a glass-blower. Lately lie had gone out at night with her father, but she knew no- thing of their pursuits, except that she was aware that her father went out to procure dead bodies.—She declared her innocence as to being accessary after the fact to the murder of the boy.—Mr. Minshul said lie could not discharge them at present, and they were remanded for a week. HORRIBLE CATASTROPHE. —An inquest was held on Wednesday afternoon at the Jacob's Well, Barbican, on the bodies of Miss Ann O'Brien and her infant child, whose deaths occurred under extraordinary circumstances. It appeared that the deceased had represented herself to Mr. Todd, with whom she lodged in Alfred-place, as the daugh- ter of Lord O'Brien, a deceased Irish Nobleman, and first cousin to the Duchess of St. Aiban's, and that though she had great expectations, her income was very limited, which induced her to tuke apartments in so obscure a situation; that she shortly after introduced a Miss Coleridge, whose income was also limited, and that they agreed to live toge- ther. They conducted themselves with the greatest pro- priety, and were visited by several respectable people. Mr. Todd's wife had a suspicion that Miss O'Brien was enceinte, and taxed her with it; but she assured her that she was mistaken, and that her enlarged appearance was occasioned by the dropsy. Early on Tuesday morning Miss Coleridge said her companion was rather indisposed, but did not inti- mate what was the matter, and it was not Until eleven o'clock the same night that he and his wife, on returning from the theatre, were convinced of the astounding fact, that Miss O'Brien had on the previous night been delivered of a male infant, without any other assistance than such as was afforded her by Miss Coleridge, and that consequently both the mother and infant had perished. Mr. W. Stone a surgeon, stated that the deceased had died from exhaus- tion and want of proper medical assistance, and that the unbilical cord not having been tied, the infant bled to death. Miss Coleridge stated that the deceased and herself went to bed on Monday night at their usual hour; that she was not aware of her being enceinte; that she was disturbed by the groans of the deceased, but on asking her what was the mat- ter, she said nothing particular that she at length went to sleep, and did not awake till six in the morning, when deceased gave her something wrapped up in a cloth, on opening which she perceived it was a dead child, when de- ceased implored her not to tetany one. Witness then made her some tea, but as she appeared much exhausted she en- treated to be allowed to make her friends acquainted with her situation, to which the deceased strongly objected. About five in the afternoon witness saw that the deceased was sinking, and insisted on apprising her brother, who lives in Regent-street; but deceased conjured her not to let her brother know ot her disgraceful situation, as he would first shoot her, and then blow his own brains out. Witness, how- ever, did go, and told him that his sister was very ill, but did not say what had occurred, and he promised to call the following morning. The deceased was of the Roman Catho- lic persuasion and witness, on her return home, called at the house of a priest of that religion, in Moorfields, to ap- prise him of the deceased's dangerous situation; but the Rev. Gentleman was not within. On reaching home, she found the deceased on the bed, in a state of stupor: she then became alarmed, and sent for medical assistance, but it was then too late, as the deceased was quite gone. The deceased being unprovided with baby linen, this, coupled with other circumstances, was, in the minds of the Jury, strong presumptive proof that the unfortunate young woman had contemplated the death of the infant. The Jury, there- fore, after a short consultation, returned a verdict of Wil- ful Murder" against the mother of the infant, and severely censured the conduct of Miss Coleridge, in not promptly calling in medical assistance.

J1rt4tltetø. MARK-LANE, LONDON, Monday, Nov. 14.—In the past week the arrivals of most descriptions of grain were liberal, and of flour abundant. This morning there is not much corn fresh. up from Essex and Kent, but several vessels from the northern ports and Ireland. The wheat trade, for prime samples, is bi isk, and such fully main- tained last week's rates; but for other qualities the sale is not lively. Prime barley meets a ready demand, but on no better terms; other sorts find a heavy trade. Beans are rather dearer. Pease of both kinds fully ntaintain former prices. Oats of good quality have ra- ther exceeded the terms of Monday se'nnight, but other kinds are dull of sale. In the flour market no variation. PRICE OF GRAIN. —Per Imperial Quarter. s. s. a. s.
