DESTRUCTIVE INSECT.—SWNE time ago a num- ber of packages of fancy and Turkey red goods were returned from the west coast of South America to a house in Glasgow, by which they had been previously shipped to that quarter of the world for stile. On the packages being examined, it was found that the greater number of them had been very much injured by the ravages of a small insect unknown in this country, but said to be very destructive in South America. The nature of the destruction wrought by these creatures' was very curious. They had eaten their way in count- less instances through the wooden boxes, and the goods encased in them, from one end to the other in lines as straight as if they had been formed by the insertion of some sharp iron instrument, and in every case these apertures were the exact size of the body of the insect. Neartv ait the packages were more or less perforated in ibis way; but one of them in particular was entirely riddled, and presented an appearance not unlike that of a honey-comb. The insect is not larger than our common fly, but a glance at its ravages will show it to be a very different sort of creature. Though a barrier of wood formed no obstacle to their progress, the tribe seem to have their tastes, as an evident partiality was shown for the fancy goods the Turkeys being much less injured. Tiiis occurrence should operate as a caution with our South American friends to be very careful in packing of goods. In the present instance the whole of the injured goods have been sent back.—Glazgow Courier. \Ye are sorry to learn that a famine prevails in the Western Isles of Scotland, the fil st cause of which is traced to the failure of the potato cropin 1834 ;and this was increased by the inability of the poor people to sell their cattle, on which sale they depend tor support, in 1835. Tiie following affecting recital forms part of a letter, addressed by Mr Hugh Campbell to the Editor of the Times.—" All the food for man or beast having been consumed, the cattle died in scores, and the miserable inhabitants were forced to support themselves by collecting the shell-fish upon their rocky shores. So indispensable did this shell-fish become,^ that during every tide, by day and night, hundreds 01 the starving inhabitants might be seen along the shores, while their strength was hardly sufficient to carry home to their famishing families the scanty pit- tance they had thus procured. As secretory to the Paisley Committee for their relief, I have sem many on"" letters from these islands, written by clergymen and others, and I have conversed with some of the natives. The Glasgow Committee sent, with their first supply of meal, a gentleman of influence and integrity, who might bring back a faithful report, and from every source we have received but one unvarying account— viz, that the people are literally starving. Children arc withdrawn from school because they have not strength slifficielit to work. Strong men have ab- sented themselves from church because they are unable to travel a few mi!es. Mothers, who have not tasted food for a day, are seen returning at night with a few shell-fish to their families, while they are themselves fainting under the paltry burden, which, when it is obtained, only prolongs the pangs of hunger without satisfying the cravings of nature. The gentleman sent from Glasgow gave, on his return, the most heartrendftig account of the scenes he had witnessed, and depicted in the most touching terms the joy, too powerful for utterance, Itnd prossed only in tears, which pervaded the crowds of faniishinsr -i,. met him on every shore at which he landed. But famishing though they were, when the sacks were landed not a hand was stretched out to grasp the boon until the clergymcn poured forth their praises to God; then, rising from their knees upon the beach, they received the bounty as a direct gift from Heaven." EMIGRATION—Extract from the journal of a "voyage to Sydney, New South Wales, m'the Francis Charlotte, addressed to the Editor of the Times. "On the 2nd of October we spoke the Charles Kerr, which left the Lizard on the 19th of July, having on board 23I female emigrants,bound for Launceston. Wishing to forward a letter, I obtained the captain's permission to lower our boat, and with the mate, steward, and four seamen, rowed after that vessel When we were within a few miles of her the females began to tialloo and make a great noise. Having arrived alongside, we found her a mass of filth, the women having been allowed to throw grease and mess all about this made the steps and ropes put for us to ascend so dangerous, that one of our men lost his hold and nearly fell into the sea. From Mr Marshall's statement, I had been led to expect that I should tind everything in perfect order and regti larity, but this was far from the case the females appeared in a distressed state, some without shoes, stockings, or even gowns, and instead of being respectable young women and of excellent charac- ter, they were the lowest of the low; their conduct was as bad as the worst of London prostitutes, tree intercourse seemed to be permitted^ between them and the sailors, and their language was most indecent and disgraceful; many of the girls, some H U5 °R. 16 -VGARS ASE» UERE pre*ONANT> AND 1 nave been informed that this is the case with every slup that comes out herewith female emigrants.

The race was appointed to be run at half-past 3 o'clock ,-fiy which time the horses appeared at the post, having previously heard the i-iotict read (a cant phrase for the starter's instructions), and taken the customary gallops before the grand stand. Vulture, however, was not exactly in the right mood at the moment, nor did the Carpenter appear to have any relish for the ap- proaching conflict, so that between the two a couple of false starts occurred—a proof that, however well they may manage these things at Doncaster, they are not quite infallible. At the third effort they got off well, Wedge lying in front until near the gravel road, where he resigned the lead to Carew, and took second place, having Beeswing, Black Diamond, Redshank, and Locomotive next him, all well laid up the two cracks were in the ruck, and Trapball and Snyders in the rear of all. fit this order, and at an excellent pace, they travelled over the hill, on sinking which Black Diamond headed Wedge, lay second for about a quarter of a mile, and then began to discover that neither the pace nor the distance suited him. The other horses composing the front rank kept their places, but the two favourites were now seen creeping up from the rear, so as to be very forward at I y the Red-house; there they ran by Carew, followed by Beeswing. Carew retiring to the rear, and Sny- ders, The Bard, and The Carpenter taking up a position behind the other three. (It was observable that notwithstanding the pace, there were, as yet, no symptoms of toiling.) At the turn near the rails Klis had a commanding lead, Scroggins and Bees- wing running behind him, and at tbedistance the three were quite distinct from the other horses, Elis having so much the best of the race, that the only doubt existing was which of the other two would be second. At this point the beaten horses dropped off very rapidly; first Carew shut up, then Black Diamond, next Trapball and Vulture, and after them Wedge, Redshank, Locomotive, and Rbberston. No further change took place, Elis maintaing his lead to the end, and winning easily by two lengths. The race for second was so severe that Scroggins won it by a head only, and it does seem rather hard upon the New- castle people that their favourite mare, after running so good a race, should not even be placed. Snyders and The Bard ran in about a length and a-balf buhind Beeswing, and each claims to have been fourth; it was a near thing. The Carpenter was sixth. Wedge, Redshank, Locomotive, and Rbberston next, then Vulture and Trapball, and lastly Black Diamond and Carew, most of tbein having pulled up on finding their chances out. BY RXJPRRSS—(WEDNESDAY.)

ME/lTHYIl TYDVIL, SATURDAY,…
ME/lTHYIl TYDVIL, SATURDAY, Sept. 24, 1836 The Po:iey of TJIE Whig Cabinet is now beginning 10 make iBlf felt. If ever a tree was lo HE knowij'hy its fruits, it is that ominous tree, which PLANTED by the hand of Lord Grey, and WATERED hy the care of the ilfelbotirties, Russells, and Palfllerstons, now drops its bitter produce upon the land. Well will it be for us, if in the storm already gathering over Europe, if that tree, to which we are forced to look for shelter, do not draw down the lightning on our heads, The direct result of an ill-fated and ignominious policy, has been Revolution in t those countries which had the especial calamity OF BEING (hen under the protection of the Whig Cabinet. ]Sovv to the proof* There is no decla- malion in tlw charge. We shall show in a fen plain senten. es by what process the Whiggism of the Grey and Melbourne Cabinets, has been the direct, palpable, and necessary cause of (lie Spanish and Portuguese Revolutions. In Spain, on the death of Ferdinand, two parties developed themselves. The adherents of the old despotic form of the Monarchy, pro- claiming Don Carlos, and the adherents of the new Jacobin Derridcracy proclaiming Christina and her daughter Isabella. Between the actual weight of national opinion on both sides there could be no possible comparison. All the Nobilily, all the Priesthood, the great body of Landowners, themselves constituting the gre;t body of possessors in Spain, were for Don Carlos, whose right to the Throne was as un- questionable as the succession of ally son of all Earldom in England to the Title and Estate. But Law, Custom, Birth, and Right, were ab- solutely nothing TO THE Whig Ministry. The Whigs of Spain must be supported by the Whigs of England. All the effotts of the Cabi- net were thrown into the scale of Spanish Democracy, fitHI under the name of aid to Christina, ENGLAND was made to trample down the true, nllei(lt alld necessary C'ollslitutioll of Spain. The result was a Civil War. The result of the war all o;il-bnrst of Jacobinism, and the result or that Jacobinism will HE either to throw Spain under (lie struggle of a Monarch, com- pelled to be a dtSpot, THROUGH the mere necessity of guarding his life AND throne, or to madden the populace into excesses which counsel the invasion of foreign troops, and cover the coun- try with mutual massacre. We unhesitatingly pronounce, that if the Whig Cabinet had acted with a particle TF principle or common sense in the beginning. Don Carlos would long since have sat upon a quiet throne,would have been ena- bled to mitigate much of the old harshness of the Spanish Royally,-would have saved hiscounfry from the unspeakable horrors in which Civil War has stalked through the land, nnd would have saved Europe Iroin tne Ie<irlul inenaceo of a general Revolution. What is the case with regard to Portugal. The same dishonesty, exciting the same impolirv, the sadie impolicy originating the same follies, and the same follies the same Revolution. The events, the errors, and the results are equally the same. On the death of the lale Portuguese Kin. tiie Reyalisls and the Republicans simi- larly developed iliciiiselves. The Royalists commanded so powerful a majority of the rank alld intelligence of the Kingdom, that tile cpn- test would not have lasted a moment had not a British Cabinet thrown its weight into the democratic scale. The right of Don Miguel was tikat of, [,;i%v, (,!Islofll, ;iti,i ilie will. The sole right of Don Pedro and his daughter lay in the Jacontu faction, who hoped by selling him their aid to obtain a Democracy in time. The Whig Cabinet instantly espoused the cause of the adventurer, and by a scandalous juggle of tile prillciple of neutrality. sustained him with troops aud money until Miguel was ex- pelled. From that tiwf"Jacobinism had no obstacle but a girl of seventeen, her husband a boy of nineteen. The Revolution ripened, burst forth, and Portugal is now like Spain, a Jacobin Government.—So much for the Palmerstou Principle and the Wisdom of Whiggism.

The Conservative Dinners are giving new demonstration that the spirit of England was not dead, but simply dormant. It is now awaking. The Whigs and Radicals alike, are prodigiously angry, and those drinkers of gin preach lessons of allli-dining worthy of iniser- ables with whom jiobody will dine. Some of the speeches at those dinners are capital. It would have been difficult to conceive beforf- ha id, that among the unambitious pursuits and habits of country life, there could be found such noble examples of knowledge, historic illustra- tiott, and ititelligent, vigorous, and classic elo- quence. Those displays at once make us proud of England, and confident in her fortunes. Such men were not made tQ be slaves-sucb abilities must find their rank in troubled times,— such hearts are unconquerable in all times.

Rumours are flying in all directions predict- ing the fall of the Whig-Radical Cabinet. If that Cabinet had a particle of dignity, it would long since have cast off its slavery of O'Connell, by resigning its places. If (hat Cabinet WAS capable of a single manly feeling, it would have felt the stigma thrown on it by its utter inability of moving in defiance of the opposition in the Lords, and 'resigned. If that Cabinet had a single conception of political honesty, it would have shrunk from the evils which it was hourly inflicting on the country, and-resigned. But as no man who knows the Cabinet can believe that it is capable of any one of the three, so it is a natural conclusian that the Cabinet will cling to its Quarter's Salary" to the last moment of place and pay. They may be flung out- hooted out—spurned out by the nation—but they will never GO out. They are incapable of the decency of resigning.

The French Ministry are still unfinished. Is this from the alleged indisposition of public men to join the King, or from the true indispo- sition of the King to hazard his Crown iu the fickle and foolish hands of the living race of Parisian regenerators ? JiE at least has resolved on his policy. lie will not suffer a French musquet to be discharged in Spain, And he is perfectly right in so doing. If his army were beaten, the national ,Iory" wotil(i rdvenge its castigation on his Throne without mercy. If he succeeded, his army would only march through a country of faction, to plunge into the fletioits of a Jacobin Capital. The lessons they learnt there they "would import into France, and the brandy of the Madrid exultados would be an equally stimulating regimen for the Conspira- tors of the Palais Royal.
