THE OLD CHURCH.
THE OLD CHURCH. It lieth gazing on the midnight sky."—SHELLEY. Grey, antique pile how awful is thy rest, At home for ever with the voiceless dead That slumber round thee there thou wakenest Thy long, tong vigil, o'er their lonely bed The aeeting steps of far-ned times have pressed Thee with the softness of their starlight tread, As on they New to their eternal lair, Leaving the dusky sign imperishably there. How like art thou, most solemn shadowy fane, Robed in the pearly garment of the moon, To structures seen within that fair domain Unveiled by sleep-the woe-worn spirit's boon—- That mighty word, where awful phantoms reign. 'Mid gorgeous clouds with golden light bestrewn, Throng'd by those raylike happy multitudes, Who walk the other shore of Death's broad sunset Hoods. Thou gazest sadly on the deep, deep sky, And glorious stars dispersed like spirits there, Like one that seeketh, through the years gone by, For some lost hope that was surpassing fair, Which made his heart, now wither'd, cold, and dry: A paradise where speechless glories were. Eternal silence is around thee cast, Thou form of awful thought, pale mourner of the past. The mighty breeze hangs round thee pure and cold, Strayed from its bower of stars low in the west, Tuning its wild harp to strange tales of old, As if to bid thy wakeful spirit rest, That hath for ages watched the sacred mould, A wistful guardian of the pulseless breast, And sole memorial of a ruin'd store Of tunny hopes and joys, in hearts that beat no more. Thy dim tone tower looks upward fixedly, Like steadfast hope beneath some cureless wrong; A few white clouds are sailing high and tree, A careless, happy, heaven-adoring throng. The moon, pale hermit of eternity. Glides her blue path in solitude along, But scatters o'er thee from her course above, An unremitting shower of holy light and love; A silver baptism-and each silent star From yonder deep immeasurable dome, The western breeze soft breathing from afar, The lucid ctoud in her aerial home; The solemn shades that night's weird ensign's are, The mighty past where viewless spirits roam, Gather and meet at this unworldly hour, To clothe thy dream-like form with mystery and power. And now the dizzy pageant of the day, Like echoes faint of tumults past and gone, Can scarce be heard, dissolving fast away, My human soul doth haunt the moonlight wan, That soothes the hoary age with magic ray, Resting those grey, w'rn battlements upon Earth's cold delusions disappear aghast, And in the invisible work! my spirit wakes at last. ?

CHEAP PosTAGE.—A few days ago an Irishman called at Chepstow post-office for a letter addressed to him, which was produced, the charge demanded being twopence. Pat, putting his hands in his pocket, solicited the favour of having it read for tim, as he was no scholar to which the post- master consented, asking him to walk in-doors the epistle was opened, land the contents made known, when Pat ex- claimed, An' shure that was no news at all at all; you may keep the lettur y'rsel—1 don' want it;" he then walked off, buttoning his pockets without paying the cash. MEDICAL FRIENDSHIP.—A facetious physician once ob- Mrved, that he never said in company, I drink to your health, but My service to you." A young lady, at an examination of grammar, was asked why the noun bachelor" was singular. She replied im- mediately,'with much naivete, Because it is very singular they don't get married." EFFECT OF HABIT.—The following utterly ridiculous instance of the painful habit London waiters have acquired of invariably repeating every syllable a customer utters, before they can possibly return any answer, literally occurred to a friend, who thus triumphantly tested their imperturbable gravity of countenance.—" Waiter:"— Yessir!" Bottled stout."—"Bottled stout—sir*! Yessir." —"And—here, Waiter!"—"Yessir!"—"Meet me in the willow glen!"—" Willow glen—sir'! Yessir." DELICATE CONSOL.ATIO-N.-Favart thus wrote to a friend in London—" Button, the great naturalist, has just lost his wife. He would be inconsolable at the event weie it not for the pleasure he anticipates in dissecting her." Nuts may be preserved for a considerable length of time in new nower-pots, and a slight sprinkling of salt prevents them from becoming mouldy. When tilled, the pots should bo inverted on a layer of dry sand. If from the age of fifteen to twenty-five, a young man neglects the cultivation of his mind, he will probably neglect it till the end of his life. If during that period he (toes not form a habit of reading, of observation, and reflection, he wilt never form such a habit; but go through the world, as the dull ass goes to market, none the wiser for all the won- ders that are spread around him. No young man can hope to rise in society, or act worthily his part in life, without a fair moral character. The basis of such a character is virtuous principle or a deep, fixed sense of moral obligation, sustained and invigorated by the fear and love of God. The man who possesses such a chu.ra.cter can be trusted. Integrity, truth, benevolence, justice, are not with him words without meanitl,- lie knows and lie feels their sacred import, and aims, in the whole tenor of his life, to exemplify the virtues they express. Such a man has decision of character; he knows what is right, and is firm in doing it. Such a man has independence of character ;-he thinks and acts for himself, and is not to be made a too) of to serve the purposes of party. Such a man bus consisÜ,ltcy of character ;—he pursues a straight forward course, and what he is to-day you are sure of finding him to-morrow. Such a man has <rMe tooi-th of character ;-and his life is a blessing to himself, to his family, to society, and to the world.
MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT FOR NOVEMBER.
MARTIN CHUZZLEWIT FOR NOVEMBER. The present number is principally occupied with a humourous but sarcastic exposure of the Humbug tions with which Lon(lon abounds, and in no more geni-il topic could the spirit of Boz be employed than in dissecting the specious villany of these establishments. It is not always that fiction is made ancilHury to the exposure of such facts as unfortunately the history of these associations have developed. The Anglo-Bengalee Disinterested Loan and Life In- surance Company, is rather a capital concern, I hope, David," said Montague. Capital indeed!" cried the secretary, with another laugh—" in one sense." In the only important one," observed the chairman which is number one, David." What," asked the secretary, bursting into another laugh, what will be the paid up capital according to the next prospectus' A figure of two, and as many oughts after it as the printer can get into the same line," replied his friend. Ha, ha At this they both laughed the secretary so vehemently, that in kicking up his feet, he kicked the apron open, and nearly started Cauliflower's brother into an oyster-shop not to mention Mr. Bailey's receiving such a sudden swing, that he held on for the moment, quite a young Fame, by one strap and no legs. "What a chap you are!" exclaimed David admiringly, when this little aiarm had subsided. Say genius, David, genius." Well, upon my sou), you are a genius then," said David. I always knew you had the gift of the gab, of course; but I never believed you were half the man you are. How could 11" I rise with circumstances, David. That's a point of genius in itself," said Tigg. li you were to lose a hun- dred pound wager to me at this minute, David, and were to pay it (which is most confoundedly improbable), I should rise in a mental point of view, directly." It is due to Mr. Tigg to say that he had really risen with his opportunities; and peculating on a grander scale, had become a grander man altogether. Ha, ha," cried the secretary, laying his hand, with growing familiarity, upon the chairman's arm. When I look at you, and think of your property in Bengal—ha, ha, ha!—" The half-expressed idea seemed no less ludicrous to Mr. Tigg than to his friend, for he laughed too, heartily. —Being," resumed David, being amenable—-your property in Bengal being amenable—to all claims upon the company when I look at you and think of that, you might tickle me into fits by waving the feather of a pen at me. Upon my soul you It 's a devilish fine property," said Tigg Montague, to be amenable to any claims. The preserve of tigers alone is worth a mint of money, David." David could only reply in the intervals of his laughter, Oh, what a chap you are and so continued to laugh, and hold his sides, and wipe his eyes, for some time, with- out offering any other observation. "A capital idea' said Tigg, returning after a time to his companion's first remark: no doubt it was a capital idea. It was my idea." No, no. It was my idea," said David. Hang it, let a man have some credit. Didn't I say to you that 11 I 'd saved a few pounds! You said! Didn't I say to you," interposed Tigg, that 2 had come into a few pounds Certainly you did," returned David, warmty, but .-<?S. that's not the idea. W'ho said, that if we put the money ??;- ??pgether we could furnish an ofHce, and make a. show ? ?." And who said," retorted Mr. Tigg. "th?t, providing ? did it on a sufEcient!y large scale, we could furnish an ?1. cJ$.ce and make a show, without any money at all Be ional, and just, and calm, and tell me whose idea was that." ) WDX thvrc;" Dayid wu opJje to cgufcgs; you bad the advantage of me, I admit. But I don't put myself on a level with you. I only want a little credit in the business. "AM the credit you deserve, you have," saidTigg. The plain work of the company, David—figures, books, circulars, advertisements, pen, ink, and paper, sealing-wax and wafers—is admirably done by you You are a first- rate groveller. I don't dispute it. But the ornamental department, David; the inventive and poetical depart- ment.—" Is entirely yours," said his friend. No question of it. But with such a swell turn-out as this, and all the handsome things you've got about you, and the life you lead, I mean to say it 's a precious comfortable department too." „ Does it gain the purpose ? la it Anglo-Bengalee asked Tigg. Yes," said David. Could you undertake i; yourself T' demanded Tigg. "No,"said David. "Ha, ha!" laughed Tigg. "Then be content with your station and your prohts, David, my fine fellow, and bless the day that made us acquainted across the counter of our common uncle, for it was a golden day to you." THE ANGLO-BENGALEE DISINTERESTED LOAN AND LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY, Started into existence one morning, not an Infant Institu- tion, but a Grown-up Company running alone at a great paee, and doing business right and left with a branch" in a first floor over a tailor's at the west-end of the town, and main omces in a new street in the city, comprising the upper part of a spacious house, resplendent in stucco and ptate-gtass, with wire blinds in all the windows, and Anglo-Bengalee" worked into the pattern of every one of them. On the door-post was painted again in large fitters, Omees of the Anglo-Bengalee Disinterested Loan and Life Insurance Company," and on the door was a large brass plate with the same inscription always kept very bright, as courting inquiry starting the city out of coun- tenance after ofHce-hours on working days, and on all day )ong on Sundays and looking bolder than the bank. Within, the omees were newly plastered, newly painted, newly papered, newly countered, newly noor-clothed, newly tabled, newly chaired, newly ntted-up in every way, with goods that were substantial and expensive, and designed (likethecompa.ny)tolast. Business! Lookatthegreen ledgers with red backs, like strong cricket-balls beaten Rat; the court-guides, directories, day-books, almanacks, letter- boxes, weighing-machines for letters, rows of tire-buckets for dashing out a conflagration in its first spark, and saving the immense wealth in notes and bonds belonging to the company look at the iron aafes, the clock, the office seal- in its capacious self, security for anything. Solidity! Look at the massive blocks of marble in the chimney-pieces, and the gorgeous parapet on the top the house PubHcity Why, Anglo-Bengalee Disinterested Loan and Life In- surance Company, is painted on the very coal-scuttles. It is repeated at every turn until the eyes are dazzled with it, andtheheadisgiddy. It is engraved upon the top of all the letter-paper, and it makes a scrotl-work round the se&t, and it shines out of the porter's buttons, and it is repeated twenty times in every circular and public notice wherein one David Crnnpte, Esquire, secretary and resident director, takes the liberty of inviting your attention to the accom- panying statement of the advantanges offered by the Anglo- Bengalee Disinterested Loan and Life Insurance Company and fully proves to you that any connections on your part with that establishment must result in a perpetual ChristmM' Box and constantly increasing bonus to yourself, and that nobody can run any risk by the transaction except the omee, which,initsgreatliberality, is pretty sure to lose. And this, David Crimpie, Esquire, submits to you (and the odds are heavy you believe him), is the best guarantee that can reasonably be suggested by the board of management for its permanence and stability.
THE ASIATIC JOURNAL .—No.…
THE ASIATIC JOURNAL .—No. 7. W. H. Alien and Co. It Is impossible not to admire the selection of articles in thepresentnumber. They are agreeably varied, and the transition from grave to gay, from lively to severe, cannot fail to please the most fastidious in periodical literature. What enhances the merit of the articles is, that they are all of an Anglo-Indian kind, and highly characteristic of the country. The following remarks on Lord Ellenborough will be found inteiesting:— Since the ctamour raised against the present Governor- General of India has subsided—a clamour which.originating in party rancour, was kept alive by his injudicious procla- mation respecting the terrible gates of Somnauth.—Public attention, in England as well as India, has rested with satis- faction upon the acts of his government. His task was a more dimcult one than ever foil to the lot of a ruler of British India, and he lias fulfilled it admirably. In the short period of his administration he has extricated the country from a disastrous foreign war, with no sacrifice of the national honour. He has promptly crushed a treacherous enemy seated upon the borders of our territory. His vigorous and eneretic measures have secured the peace of the vast terri- tories under his rule, and he has assumed an attitude which mucit overawe both foreign and intestine malcontents with an army standing in unassailable strength upon its own soil." His domestic government has been marked by mea- sures of less obtrusive but not less permanent utility. Slavery has been abolished by an act of his council through- out British India. The judicial department of government, that which most needed improvement, but in which change was most hazardous, has undergone wise and prudent reforms by the regulation of the Sudder Courts, a better appointment of the business, and a more extensive employ- ment of uncovcnanted agency. He hn.s separated the government of Bengal from the general government of India, and introduced a distribution of the sectariat duties under the latter, analogous to the Home system, changing the'Secret and Poiitical' department into the 'Foreign,' the 'General' into the 'Home,' and instituting a new secretaryship of Finance.' These and other minor reforms, though bearing upon the face of them nothing to fascinate vuigar admiration or attract popular applause, possess an Intrinsic value, which is honestly acknowledged by those on the spot, by whom they can be best appreciated. Some of them must interfere with the private interests or the obstinate prejudices of individuals; and all may not have been carried into effect with such a degree of tenderness as will sometimes disarm anger. This will affect the popularity of Lord Ellenborough. By the last accounts it appears that his lordship has omcially announced that no more private audi- ences are to be granted to gentlemen on matters relating to their private interests, a regulation that will, perhaps, prove as beneficial at it will be distasteful." INTEMPERANCE AND CRIME.—Dr. Yore stated, at a late meeting in Dublin, that he attended at least one hundred and twenty criminals to the scaffold and every one of them declared that intemperance was the means of bringing them to that end. Of four hundred and ninety-five persons con- fined in an asylum in Liverpool, two hundred and fifty- seven were there from intemperance in Dublin, Dr. Craw- ford states, of two hundred and eighty-six lunatics in one asylum, one hundred and fifteen were there from whisky. THE MARRIAGE RiNG.—There are some curious Pagan notions connected with the marriage ceremony, not un- worthy the notice of our fair readers. The practice of mar- rying with the ring was adopted by the Greeks; the bride was modestly veiled, and, after the nuptial benediction, was crowned with tlowers. The ring, symbolic of eternity, having no termination, was given and received as a token of everlasting love. It was a pledge of eternal contract among the Persians and Egyptians. Among the Romans, the gift of a ring was a mark of liberation from slavery. people may best explain whether it is so among the moderns. IRON TRADE. —We understand Messrs. Tulk and Lee, of Cleator Moor, Cumberland, are building two furnaces to reduce the red haematite ore under a patented process. FATHER MATHE.W.—A letter has been received by a per- son at Exeter, from Father Mathew, intimating that he will not visit England till spring, wintfr being unfavourable to holding open air meetings on this side the channel. PARLIAMENT.—The Standarcl says—" We believe that we may state with confidence that no intention whatever at present exists of calling Parliament to assemble for the dis- patch of business before the usual time, namely, the first week in February." PRESENT To HER MAJESTY.—-A splendid specimen of the Brahmin ox arrived at Windsor, a few days since, as a present to her Majesty from Viscount Combcrmere. On the day of its arrival her Majesty and Prince Albert, and seve- ral of the Queen's distinguished guests, visited the royal dairy, for the purpose of viewing the present. The beast, which was greatiy admired for its symmetry and immense size. was on Monday slaughtered for the royal table. Inde- pendently of the offal, it weighed upwards of 130 stone. Its large hump, which grew from between its shoulders, has been carefully detached from its body, orders having been received that it should be salted and cured for the royal table. The skin is to be cured and tanned, with the hair on, tor a. hearthrug in one of the royal apartments. EDUCATIONAL MEETING AT BRISTOL.—A great meeting took place at Bristol a few days since, the Earl of Ducie in the chair, to take into consideration the educational necessi- ties of the labouring classes of the city and neighbourhood, and to adopt resolutions for the purpose of mitigating those necessities, by increasing the efficiency of the schools already in existence, and by the establishment of others in situations where they are needed, on the plan of the British and Foreign School Society. The room was crowded by in- dividuals connected with the various religious denominations of the city. The first resolution was moved by H. A. Dunn, Esq., secretary to the British and Foreign School Society, and a series of resolutions, pledging the meeting to exertion for promoting the object desired, were unanimously agreed to and about five hundred pounds subscribed in the room for that purpose. The Right Hon. Earl Somers has presented the munifi- cent donation of C 10!i0 towards the expenses of building a new church at Red Hill, near Reigate, and which was con- secrated a few days since by the Lord Bishop of Winchester, the noble earl being present. The Bishop of Lincoln, in the tour which he has just com- pleted, confirmed 11,09t) young persons, being nearly 1,000 more than were admitted to that sacred rite during his lordship's laot diocegitn circuit,
THE LATE OUTRAGES IN TIPPERARY.
THE LATE OUTRAGES IN TIPPERARY. On Sunday se'nnight the family circle, at dinner, of Mr. Thomas Waller, of Finnoe, within a mile and a half of Bor- risokane, consisted of that gentleman and Mrs. Waller, a young boy, their grandson, son to Mr. John Francis Waller, Miss Vereker, sister to Mrs. Waller, and Mr. John A. Braddell, brother-in-law of Mr. Waller. The dining-parlour had two entrance doors, one from the hall, and the other leading to the stairs in connection with the kitchen. Mr. Braddell sat at the head. and Mr. Waller at the foot of the table and just as the last dish of the first course was being removed Mr. Braddell perceived a man, armed with a pistol, in the doorway, which was near to Mr. Waller, and who presented it at his head. Mr. Braddell cried out Waller, you are murdered," and, immediately starting to his feet, was about to rush against the fellow with the chair he sat upon, when he perceived himself covered by a blunderbuss in the arms of another villain, who was in the doorway which entered from the hall. Mr. Braddell rushed then upon this fellow, and with the chair forced him into the hall, when the shock struck the flint out of his deadly weapon The old butter, a venerable and worthy servant, pushed the young boy under a sideboard, and with a garden tool used for plucking up weeds he inflicted many severe blows on the ruman who levelled the weapon at his master.. There were in this murderous attack seven persons, and as desperate and sanguiim.rv a battle then ensued as ever we have heard of in a private dwelling. The villains succeeded in wresting the garden tool from the butler, and with it, the butt of their fire-arms, a bar of iron they found in the hall, and the coulter of a plough, they beat to an unmerciful extent the two gentlemen, the two ladies, and the aged butler, who was only able to crawl to the alarm-bell, which he rang violently, on which the party made ofF, leaving, as they supposed, their victims butchered. The alarm-bell brought some of the neighbouring gentry, who found the dining-room and hall more like a slaughter-house than those belonging to the mansion of a gentleman. The entire family were in a complete state of insensibility, Dr. Stoney, of Bon'isokane, was instantly sent for, when it was found that Mr. Waller and Mr. Braddell were dreadfully injured; Mrs. Waller lying under the t.tble in her gore, being struck down by the blow of a bar of iron on the back of the head; and Miss Vereker in a similar or, possibly, a worse state. Next morning, Dr. Dempster, of Nenagh. was early in attendance, and the sufferers were examined and their wounds dressed. Mr. Waller's left arm has both bones broken, there are eleven cuts on his head, and one of his eyes is dangerously injured. Mr. Braddell was brought into Nenagh on Monday. His head is awfulty bruised, so much so, that it cannot yet be ascertained if there be a fracture. His eyes are frightfully injured, and his body severely beaten and hurt; and on being undressed his clothes were found to be saturated in his own blood. In fact, it wit! be impossible for some days to ascertain the extent of the injuries inflicted, or if there be any hope of their surviving this murderous, brutal, and unmanly attack. We have learned that some of the murderers have been seriously wounded, and that there are strong grounds for suspicion against some parties, and great hopes entertained of bringing the delinquents to justice. They must have entered the house by a back door, which is usually securely fastened at air early hour in the evening and they must have taken their shoes off before they ascended the back stairs which led to the hall. A number of magistrates and other gentlemen visited the scene of this atrocious outrage on Monday se'nnight, viz.— Major Priestly, Messrs. P. Carrell, T. G. Stoney, T. B. Dancer, T. Sadleir, T. Brereton, resident magistrates; J. Fitzgerald, &c. Tuesday morning, at eight o'clock, there was a consulta- tion of the medical gentlemen. Mr. Waller, we are happy to say, passed a tolerable night. Mrs. Waller is going on favourably. Miss Vereker is in a most dangerous and precfuious state. Mr. Braddell is in that btate that it will be impossible to say for a few days what the result of his Injuries may be. We have heard some persons arc already taken up for this deed of barbarity.

MUNITIONS OF WAR.-It is stated that the Low Moor Iron Company, near Bradford, have received an order for ItO iron cannon, 22,000 eight-inch shells, and 150,000 canuon-shot, 32-pounders. It has not publicly transpired whether the order is from the Hon. the East India Com- pany or from the British government. The fair Peri Carlotta Grisi, of Drury-lane theatre, receives fifty pounds per night. AN EXAMPLE To LANDOWNERS.—-Lord Northwick has let 120 acres of arable land, in lots from one chain to four acrcs, to the traùesmen amI labourers of the parish of Blockley, Worcestershire. This is not only an accommoda- tion to the tradesman, but a great benefit to the poor iabourer. It is also said that his Lordship has signified his intention of setting out more land in the same way. If other landed proprietors were to copy this exemplary plan, their rental would be greatly increased, the land improved, and a much larger produce would be ensured. COMMISSION 01' ENQUIRY.—PEMBROKESHIRE.—On Tues- day morning, the Corn -n issionert; of held their first sitting for the county of Pembroke, at Haverfordwest. To state the nature of the complaints which, we understand, have been m.'de before them, would be only to repeat what has been already detailed respecting the proceedings of the commissioners in the county of Carmarthen. The toll grievance is, of course, a main subject of comptaint, but the particular grievance is not quite the same as in Carmarthen- shire ;-the annoyance of side-bars, and vexatious position of the gates, are less talked of, and the rates of toll appear by no means immoderate but the complaints made by par- ticular parishes which have had the burthen of repairing devolved upon them by the inability of certain trusts to maintain their own roads, have been vkry forcibly repre- sented to the commissioners. The increase of tithe since the late act has again, we are informed, been a prominent topic of objection. The poor law amendment act has alao been assailed in many quarters, and upon the same points, viz.—the amount of salaries paid to the ofncers of Unions— the operation of the bastardy clauses—denial of out-door relief, &c. Another subject which has been strongly and repeatedly urged as a hardship appears to be the rate of fees paid to magistrates' clerks the scale allowed by law is, we believe, rather higher in Pembrokeshire than in Carmar- thenshire; but an allegation frequently made is that the legal standard is too often exceeded. We are informed that many persons have expressed a wish for the appointment of stipendiary magistrates, in the expectation that a stricter cheek would thereby be imposed on the administration of justice. The commissioners have conferred with several magistrates and gentlemen of innucnce in the county-Sir Richard Phlllips, M.P., Colonel Owen, Mr. Philtips, of Williamston. Mr. Bellairs, and several others. They have also received several deputations. Their plan of investiga- tion into the accounts of the turnpike trusts has, we under- stand, been the same as that pursued in Carmarthenshire the enquiry is, however, a much less troublesome one. The commissioners have given notice of sitting at Narberth oa Saturday, and at Neweastle-Emlyn on Monday they will probably, also, visit Cardigan and Aberystwith. We are informed that it is not unlikely that the commissioners will a?ain visit some part of Carmarthenshire, for the sake of following np some heads of enquiry on which further in- formation is required.—C?we?e? JoMy-Ma/. WELSH AGITATORS.—Capt. Child and Mr. Waters are going about wherever they can secure an audience to agitate the country on the subject of tithes. They tried a meeting at Handowror, and it fell still-born to the ground. They then convened a second, and succeeded in getting a smafl number of people together to listen t<) their eloquence, and to be edified by their very profound knowledge of the tithe subject in all its bearings. Handowror is a rural district, and people there never suspected that they had much to complain of on the score of tithes, until they were enlight- ened and agitated by these itinerant orators, as is fully demonstrated by the apathy of the parties s:ud to be ag- "'ricved. In this obscure nook of the principality, the political gemini had it all their own way, for there was no one if thcre were the to discuss the subject. Emboldened by their success, such as it was at Handowror, they wished to appear in another and more populous locality, where they would not be under the necessity of wasting their fragrance on the desert air," or of throwing the pearls of their eloquence before persons in competent to appreciate their worth. Capt. Child formerly contested or canvassed the borough of Pembroke with the view of contesting its representation, we do not exactly remember which at this moment, and, like the rejected of Carmarthenshire, he still hankers after the coy object of his ambition, in hopes that he will eventually attain the object of his desires. THE IRON TRADE ON THE CONTINENT.——Our letters from Brussels state tha.t the utmost expedition is used to take advantage of the transit offered by the German railroads, which are now open to supply that country with iron for some years to come, a first, assignment being calculated on of 35,000,000 kilogrammes, which has been waiting the partial opening of the railway to undertake the consignment. The Belgium iron manufacturers are on the alert, and several have come to Brussels to have an interview with M. Nothomb or M. Rumigny on the subject. They complain much of the manner in which the duties are levied in France 4f. 40c. being charged for iron of the first casting, and 14f. for the second, which amounts to a complete prohibition and for manufactured goods the same surcharge is made—a steam-engine, for instance, of 30-horse power, is generally set down at 50f. or 60f. and they state that if this state of things continue these iron-works must cease. The Congress of the Deputies of the Custom Unions has been sitting for a month past at Berlin, and which was to have broken up on the 24th ult., but the resolutions have, up to the present time, remained in obscurity. As, however, considerable time must elapse before 500 English vessels could unload this immense quantity at Antwerp, the Belgians are witling to make the most of the opportunity to get stock off their hands, and thus enable some to resume operations until a better state of things shall arrive.-Mining Journal. UNION is STRENGTH.—The person who now keeps the Hay Ie Toll-gate has been a father and step-father of 23 children. His first wife bore him 10 children, and his second wife had 13 children by her former husband. Lord Francis Egerton, M.P., has been unanimously re- elected Lord Rector of Aberdeen University, by the Senatus A.c¡¡,dcmic of that seat of learning. THE IRON WORKERS OF SCOTLAND.—We understand that a meeting of delegates connected with the iron works of Scotland took place last week at Coatbridge, to take into consideration the propriety of petitioning their proprietors for an advance of wages. Delegates from most of the works having attended, the propriety of a general strike was taken into consideration, when, after considerable discussion, it was thought most prudent, in the mean time, that each workman should give their employers fourteen days' notice, and that a meeting, after they had got their answers, should take place, to consider what other steps it might be neces- sary to take. It was likewise taken into consideration the propriety of a.11 iron masters paying similar rates of wages. There was general uniformity in the price of iron, it was urged, and there could be nothing unfair in asking a uni- formity of wages.-Scoteish Guardian. The Lord chancellor has recently issued a. new scale of fees and allowances to attorneys acting in fiats of bankruptcy. and also to the messengers of the various courts of bankruptcy throughout the country, and their assistants. By the tormer regulations it was found that the scale of allowances to attorneys engaged in nats of bankruptcy were so low, that in very many cases they recommended their clients to assign their property, oner composition, and, in fact, do any- thing rather than have the d,l'Cket struck against them This was found to have so injurious an effect upon the benefit intended to he conferred by the act, that representations were made to the Lord Challcellor on the subject by the law associations, both at Manchester and Liverpool. The resuit has been, that his lordship has just given his sanction to a new scale of fees and allowances, which has met the appro- bation of all concerned in the matter, and which will have the etiect of increasing the business considerably, particularly in the district courts. ROYAL AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY OF ENGLAND.—At the November meeting of the members, just held, the Right Hon. Earl Spencer, president, in the chair, the report of the nuance committee showed an account of ;C-i,700 capital in the public funds. The business that occupied the council was with reference to the ensuing meeting at Southampton, when the president reported the favourable results of the communications which had been received from the mayor of Southampton. CAUTION TO PERSONS MAKING WiLLS.—Since the passing of the new WiU Act in 1836, numerous wills have been set aside for want of due attention to the manner of attestation prescribed by that act. Amongst the latest cases of hardship of this kind we may mention one that occurred in the Pero- gative Court on Tuesday se'nnight. The deceased signed his will in the presence of two witnesses, a man having his wife present at the same time but the man having written his wife's name. the court held, that though the witnesses might have attested the signature of the deceased, they had not both subscribed the will, as the act requited, and refused the probate of the will. COLONEL STODDART.—There is a rumour current in well informed quarters that Colonel Stoddart is still alive. This rumour has been, in some measure, corroborated by the ap- pearance at Hyderabad of a native traveller, who says, that as he had oil previous occasions during the late campaign been acquainted with several British officers, he, being in Bokhara within some months past, had seen Colonel Stod- dart, by whom he has been requested to make known the Colonel's position. ATTORNEYS.—One hundred and seventy-three gentlemen have given notice of their intention to apply, during the present term, to be admitted attorneys to practice in the Court of Queen's Bench; and there are thirty-three notices of application for re-admission. A seizure of 4,000 Ibs. of tobacco, concealed in a. large warehouse at the east end of the town, was made a few days since. The parties implicated are said to he of a trade no way connected with tobacco, and are represented as one of the first nrms in the city. The principal, and all his servants, have been taken into custody. The British Association has, since its establishment, ex- pended E83,000 in scientific investigatipns. MISS HARRIET subscription to com- pensate this lady for her disinterested refusal of a government pension has been closed and £ I ,348 remitted to Miss Martinea.u.
ABERGAVENNY CYMREIGYDDION…
ABERGAVENNY CYMREIGYDDION SOCIETY. The tenth anniversary of this society was held on the 10th Inst., at Abergavenny, At the Swau Inn Tavern C9 persons &at down to an exceHent dinner The Rev. T. Price, vicar of Cwmdu, presided, and the Rev. John Evans, of officiated all After the cioth was removed, the nation:)) toast—" O'es y byd y'raith Cymraeg"—-was drunk as Welshmen always drink it. His Roya! Highness Prince AUjert, the Prince of Wa)es and the rest of the royat famify," w?re received & responded -to as they ought to have been. "Gwenyaea Gwent" (Lady Ha!)) was received with a)t due honours. Her worth M a patrouest and fellow-labourer with the co-nmittee, and the amazing innuence which she possesses and brings to bear In favour of the society, received their due meed of praise. Thn next toast was, "Prosperity to the AbergavennyCym- reig-yddio!1 Society." Next flowed the heatths of Sir B. Hall, hart., Sir C. Morgan, hart., (Ifor It'oriad), Rhys Powell, Esq., J. E. W. Rt)))!i, Esq., Sir John and Lady Char\ntte Guest, C. H. Leigh, Esq., the Danarth famity, and C. Morgan, Esq., Ruperra. President of the next Eisteddfod. Mr. Hiit'y Morgan in proposing prosperity to the Aberga- venny Cymreigyddion Society, said that though he was horn In the principatit;, he was often ashamed that he could net. speak the Weish language; but feeling deeply interested in everything that pertained to the prosperity of Wa)es, and especially of this his native town, upon the formation of this society he enrolled his name amongst its first members, and emptoyed all his energy in promoting its success. He had been often asked by the "Cm Bono" fraternity, what good is the society '1 The question, when put by Wetsbmen, excited a tiurstof indignation at their want of national feeling; but when asked by Engtishmcn, whose feelings are not cast in the same mouid as ours, the immense good which is effected by it, was pointed out. Ten years have rotted away since the society was catied into existence. It originated in the patriotic hosom of Caradawc, the former secretary, and was carried on, through hia indetat)gah!e exertions, with success, for several years. The object at first proposed was to encourage the growth ot Weish literature in Gwent and Morganwg, by ottering prizes for the best essays on proposed subjects, which were generaity appertaining to Wates. The minds of hundreds of young Weish cottiers and miners, artisans, and labourers, were get to work, a.ad instead of spending their insure hours in iijsttessidteness, or brewing mischief in beer-shops, they were aroused frotU their menta) torpor, and b<'g'an to read ditigentty, think intensely, and many wrote correctty, on subjects of vast national historical interest, as their unpunished productions, In the society's chsst, will prove- This society gave birth to the Wetsh Manuscript Society, the first fruit of which was the pubtica- tion of the Liber Landovensis, by the Rev W. J. Rees, M.A., F.S.A., dedicated hy permission to his Roya) Highness Prince Albert it is a work of deep research and immense vatue. Such gigantic efforts have been made to improve the appearance of the Eogtish press, that at the present moment it stands unrivalled for beauty and elegance, except by a Welsh press. That splendid specimen of nne printing. Lady C. Guest's Mabinogiun, printed by Mr. Rees, of Ltanduvery, is equal to aoythmg In point of typographical exceHencf, that has appeared since the days of the celebrated Eizevtr, and this would never have appeared had it not been for the Abergavenny Cymreigyddion. Does it, then, require to be asked what good it has doiiet It has encouraged the manu- facture of Welsh nanne), by offering prizes for the best weaving and dying, and for the Lest taste displayed In the arrangement of the national colours: so greatty has tt tended to further trade in this particular branch, that the amount of the manufacture of white flannels has been more than tripple within this last ten years, aud of fancy Hannets more than ten times the quantity is now made that was made prior to the formation of the society. It has thus benefitted manufacturers. Our iron works and collieries are situated in very elevated parts ot the country; and between the narrow gu))ies of our mountains, keen and piercings winds are prevatent, under which many a weak and delicate constitution has prematureiy sunk: but by the more general use of flannels among opera- tives, they are better ahfe to withstand the damps of the ievejs, and contend against the pettings of the pitiiosa storm on our hil!s; and thus the society has cons'derahty )esseaed the amount of mortality. It not only provides food f"r the mind, and more comfortable raiment for the body, but also provides for their leisure hours the most elegant amusemeut of civitized life. To revive the uoe of our national instrument was deemed desirabie. To W. 'Morgan, Esq., belongs t.he honour of proposing the first prize for the best performer on the trippie harp It was immediately manliest that the taste for Wcish music would be revived, for others came forward with their proHered rewards to good harpers, one of the most successful of whom has been a b!ind man nurtured and patronized by us. An impetus was given to the movement, and it was very soon discovered that a bunder of harps was wanted. Prizes were otfered by the society for the best Weish harps: this catted out the genius of a young Weish wheei- wright; heiettthe manufacture of the rumbling wheel for that of the sweet-toned harp, and so successfully has be em- ployed his skiil that you, sir, had the gratification of seeing the Queen receive as a present for her son, the Prince ot Wales it Weish harp, buiit by Mr. Basset Jones, of Cardiff, who was honoured with a warrant, making him triple harp maker to her Majesty. You had the further gratrncation of seeing our btind harper introduced into the presence of royaity, and there piayed on a harp which he won at our last Eisteddfod. These, sir, are some of the advantages arising from the Abergavenny Cymreigyddlon others would foUow were a more geuerat patronage given to the society by the tradesmen of the town. He anticipated the day when the infant Prince of Watea would be sumcientty advanced in years to take the society under his own patronage; then all wii! raify round it, and then even more than at the present I moment it will be seen that King Arthur is not dead." The evening was spent m the utmost harmony, amidst a genera! expression ot determination to support the Aberga- venoy Cymreigyddtoa Society.
LIGHT AND ADULTERATED BREAD.
LIGHT AND ADULTERATED BREAD. To the Editor of the Advertiser and GMarcftSM. Mr. Editor,—I beg with yonr kind permisiiion to conc!ade this subject with a few further observations on the law at present in force against the tenders of tight and adulterated bread, not for one moment anticipating that anything can be urged in extenuation of the conduct of bakers, who adopt such disgraceful practices, as nothing can by possibility be more injurious to a people than detective weights, or trickery and unfair dealing with provisions of any description. I am, however, decidedty of opinion that those who have the power, do not look to the matter with that activity and vigitance which the subject so seriousty and imperiousty demands, for, with regard to bread, on reference to the act of the 5th and 6th of William the 4th, the law is most ctear and conclusive—as follows Firstly—That bread must be sold by weight, under the penalty of forty shittings tor every offence, fancy roUs and fancy bread being only exempted from being weighed." Secondty—The weight Is to be according to the avordupois of sixteen ounces to the pound, and the several gradations of a pound for any tews quantity than a pound, and for every deviation from such Uniterm weight the lender is liable to a penalty of ;C.5 Thirdly- Every baker and seller of bread must have on or near the counter a beam and with and proper weights, in order that aH bread sold be weighed in the presence of the purchaser, under the penalty of.e5. "Fourthly—AH bread carts are to have the like weighing apparatus, under the penalty of JE5." "Fifthty—A)) adulteration of bread is punished with a penalty of tOs. on each !oafso adutterated." Sixthty—That bread not made otherwise than wholly of wheaten Hour must be marked with the letter M., under the penatty of 10s. for each pound weight ottered for stic." With regard to the last clause a great tital may he said, for it a baker sctttt for exampte a composition weighing four pounds for a wheaten ioaf, vhieh, upon examination, is discovered not to be wholly of wheaten nou' he fuhjects him- self to a penalty of 1;2. on thit singte toaf, it it is not marked with the letter M.—and if be setts a toaf marked with thf last mentioned letter for II. wlieatet) loaf, and accordinglYJ and it turns out not to be wholly ot wheaten Hour, he Is guiity of the like fraud, &nd is punifhabte accordingty. The marking of loaves reminds mf of anotd farmer residing in tiae West of England, who adopted the foitowing method with bread baked at home. For his plough boys and domestic servants his thrifty and carefni partner was used to make bread haif ef wheaten flonr and the remaining moiety of bartey Sour, which mixture makes good and wholesome bread,—but the old gentleman preferred the feat th)ng, and wouid conse- quently have his toat made whotty of wheaten Hour, and in order to distinguish the one from the other, he caused the letter H., for honest, to be Impressed on bis own ioaf. and the letter R., for rasca), on the mixed bread; now the letter M. referred to in the Act of Parliament, stands, I presume, for mixt The tetter M., we all know, may likewise stand for murder, so that the pubHc when desirous of purchasing a good wheaten ioaf, shouid beware of the ietter M., and treat It with the most tnetfabte contempt, lest peradventure they shou!d purchase a toat mixed with we know not what, and murdered to aH intfnts and purposes. But why, I would ask, shnu)d we not see that all the above very wholesome provisions in favour of the people are strictly complied with and carried into effect- Dread should not, as at present is the case, be sold by the toat. but by the pound. Many persons,! am aware, go into a baker's shop and ask for a sixpenny or a shDiing toaf, StC., and away they take their purchase, and consume it without weighing it ati surety there can be no more trouble in weighing bread than potatoes, or numerous other articles we could meutton. Why not xsk for a two pound, four pound, six pound, or any other sized loaf the purchaser may require, and see that it be weighed before teaving the shop, they would then be enabted the better to judge whether they are or are not imposed upon, either in weight or price, and May rety upon it that shoutd a baker cavil at and Insutt a customer for requiring thia tawfut and proper mode of buying bread to be conformed to, such baker, so misconducting himsetfis not an honest mun. And, as any person may prosecute for the pena!ties, if a purchaser of light or adulterated bread would but take the trouble of conveying a loaf so maltreated in one hand, and the Act ofParHament in the other, before a magistrate, he wouid be performing a most meritorious service to the people, and justiy deserve the pubtic thanks, all the preaching about chartism, and in favor of anti-corn-taw leagues, woutd be mere moonshine to it, for this would be a soitd tmd substantial service rendered to the community at iarge, whereas wild theories, and abstruse spccujations in po)iticks, conveys too frequency to our ears naught but empty sounds, signifying nothing. For it is not by suffering the foreigner to inundate us with his corn, and thereby to gain additional advantage from his soil, at the expence of the eultivaturs of our own, and con, quentty to stay and to cramp the circulating medium more thun it is already, thut \v:[[ do us any good, we may rety upon it;—it is money we wan', for, using an old provrb, money makes the mare to go; & loaf at four pence with onty two pence In our pocket to pay for it, wont do for us by any means. Let us look, therefore, if the produce of our own country be fairly deatt with, and whether we cannot have a cheap toat, and enough money in our pocket to purchase it, without being under the necessity of encouraging the foreign grower at the expence of the British farmer. I icave you, Mr. Editor, to judge whether there is not more steriing common sense in this observation than may be ef- fected from all the fine speeches of the anti-corn-taw legislators In the United Kingdom. It may be said, however, by some bakers, that they woutd not he ahto to obtain a subsistence were they compeited, as by law, to give us fair weight, and unadutterated Hour, but I deny f'e assumption in toto. Of course, by becoming honest men, they perhaps might not be enahted to emptoy music and dancing masters, to instruct their daughters to hum, strum on an upright grand piano forte, or gracefu)!y to cut capers in a batt room, or for a horse and ch&isc to take deiightfut airings on a Sunday from Hounsditch to Hocktey in the Hotc, or from Swansea to the Mumbtes. or vice versa,—but by going tM market and procuring wheaten uour, if possibte, directly and at firsthand from the fnrmt;r and themiUer, and manu- facturing bread sotefytrom it, I do not entertain the feast doubt that they would be enabled to support their fannties in that decency and respectabttity most becoming their station in life, for the better the bread the greater wo"td be the call for it, as many families wouid )n that case dispense with the necessity of baking bread at their own houses, and a qutck sate Md a quick return I have trequeudy heard makes good for trade. Trusting that you will excuse my having been somewhat prefix upon this most interest'ng subject, and that what I have said may have its due ettect <n the qu.u-t.er intended, and the public become ultimately benefited thereby. I remain, Mr. Editor, yours faitMutty, Nov. 9, 1843. LYCURGUS. CAERLEON. To <Ae Editor of the Advertiser and Guardian. StR,—In passing through the ancient metropoti.s of South Wates, I have never heard tts name pronounced by the inhabitants, when speaking EngHsh, without feeiing grieved and annoyed at the desecration which that nohte soundiua; word has undergone amongst them m the compressed and vul- gar form to which It has been reduced. That Caer- Licon, "The City of the Legions," thepnuceiy Urbs LegionwrlJ" shoutd be squeezed Into the mean and pititui CullcenJ is a perpetration to be accounted for only by reference to the vitiated taste of the last century, when London WM prououm-cd LMMM:<?, and E?tM&M?A, .y???o, ?'c. But it is satisfactory to find that this fatse and o(feus!ve style of pronunciation is beginning to be abandoned by at) weft educated peopl, A)so Abergavenny, by the mere good taste of the neighbourhood, has been rescued from its cripp'ing encasement of AbergainYJ and returned to its ori?inat and i')i( totgth proportions oi ?4-6ey'-?a-t:eH-)ty. I trust, tficreh?c, that the worthy ci!?f)is of CmeWcoM will not be rearmost in the march of tat(', but will itcknuwfedge the propriety of discarding the vuigar an;) con- temptible Cullccn, and reptacing it by the nob)e and dignified trisytiftbic ofC?r-?e-o?. It on!y requires that two or three weH-bred persons in the neighbourhosd should set theexampie and the thim is accomptished. I have only to add that strangers, who know this word merety by sight, always pronounce it as it is speit, and when they jirst approach the p)ace they are, as I was myse)f, ex- ceedingly surprised and disappointed at the insignificance to which the inhabitants have contrived to reduce it. I am, Sir. &c., A TRAVELLER. To the Editor of the Advertiser aizd Guardian. Mr. Editor,—Every consider.u.e person must lament, the recent fawtess proceedings of the iower classes in the destruc- tion of the turnpike gates, and other outrages ih the western part of this couuty.—aud as they must a!so lament that such excessive and numerous tons had been imposed, as furnishing a pretext for such disastrous breaches of the peace, and which toUs have been obii?ed to be discontinued and abated.

CONVERSIONS FRor RoMANISM.——Oo. Sunday, the fitf¡ of Noveiizber, four persons solemnly renounced the errors of Romanism in. Audcon's Church, in the presence of a densely crowded congregation and were received into com- munion with the united Church of England and IicLand, as established in these kingdom.—DM&/Mt Statesman. DiSTRIBL-TION OF THE ARMY IN IRELAND.—Of the total force-viz., 30,200 men, distributed through the whole kingdom, not more than 2000 are required for the Protestant province of Ulster that is, not more than one-nftcenth o< the whole for the second largest of the four provinces At present there are only 200 men required for the locality of Derry, including the whole north-western district. A Conservative mayor bus at last been elected at Devon- port. THE PROTESTANT CHURCH.—-I will not shrink from th term Protestant, as though I thought it unbecoming a branch of Christ's Holy Catholic Church. Not that I glory m belonging to a. protesting church I grieve too deeply, that there should be errots—gross, fatal errors, against which to protest. I glory in belonging to an apostolical Church I lament that such a Church is compelled to be Protestant. But we cannot of ourselves part with our protesting character. The Roman Church must take that from us. And how By violence'! God helping, we will imitate our fathers, and deliver our protest in the face of persecution and death. By our returning into communion with the Roman Church—-the Roman Church as it is ? No, rio I trust we may never sny—" We have not so learned Christ." We will cease to be Protestants when the Roman Church renounces the abominations against which we protest. Tilt then, we must keep the name we must keep the thing. As to that, of which one has heard—of which one has read- nnprotestantising the Church, God in His mercy forbid this! We will pray, we will labour to reform the Roman commu- nion better to die, than to consent to Romanise the Reformed.—Ser/MOM by the Rev. II. MfJlvill, on <Ae 5<A of November. The Rev. Dr. MH1 has, it is said, been selected for the presidency of King's College, London. He was formerly president of Bishop's College, Calcutta. R.CYAL IU¡O;IFlCE)¡CE.ller Majesty has granted a pension of 1:200 per annum to &irW'i!li;un Hamilton, Pro- fessor of Astronomy and President of the Royal Irish Aca- demy. This gracious recognition of the merits of Sir William was made without any application on his part or that of any of his friends. MLxincHKT GiFT FOR CnuRCH ExTEK.sio\.—The agents of Sir J. W. Ramsden, at his half-yearly rent day at Huddertifield last week, announced that it was his intention to give the muninccnt sum ofES,000 for the erection of four new churches and schools in the extensive parish of MuddersReld, with ground for the sites of the same.
