Sir James Wolfe requested an interview with his friend at which, saying that he had the strongest presentiment that he should be killed in the fight of the morrow, but he was sure he should die on the field of glory, Sir James unbuttoned his waistcoat, and taking from his bosom the miniature of a young lady. with whose heart his own "blended." he delivered it to Commander Jervis, entreating, that if the foreboding enrae to pass, he would himself return it to her on his arrival in En-lar Wolfe's presages were too completely fulfilled. and Com- mander Jervis had the most painful duty of delivering the pledge to Miss Lowther. FRENCH HUSBANDS WITH ENGLISH 11 IVFS.-It, i&-O. curious fact* that notwithstanding the strong prejudices' which the Fmuch entertain towards England and the English, the French gentlemen give a decided preference to English ladies, when they mean to marry. An Englishman visiting Paris is surprised at the number of English ladies with French husbands whom he meets in society. If an English lady of passable appearance remains long unmarried in Paris, the presumption is that the fault is her own. It is worthy of remark, on the other hand, that an English gen- tieman, resident in Paris, very rarely marries a French lady. -Grant's Paris and its People, Moderation is the silken string running through all viftues, A writer on school discipline Without a liberal use of the thong, it is impossible to make boys smart.

MANAGEMENT OF -Portji.. -In Europe, the Russian pork bears a high p>rtge+ and its quality is supposed to be owing to the pickle in which it was preserved. This is call yd "the Empress of Russia's brine," and is prepared as follows: Boil together,a gentle fire, six pounds of common salt that in most common use in Russia is rock salt), two pounds of ponvd,-retl ,44"titree ounces of saltpetre, and three gallons of KprRrg or pure water. Skim it while boiing, and when quite uofd. pour it-over the meat, every part of wfiieh must be covered with the brine. Small pork will be suflici- ently cured in lour or five days. Hams intended for drying, two weeks, unless they are very large. This pickle may be used again, if it W fresh boiled up with a small addition t. the ingredients. Jiefore putting the meat into the brine, wash it in water, press out the blood, and wipe it clean. BREAD AND MILK-FOR CHILDREN. —Never allow milk to boil-it loses much of its nutritions quality by so doing. Place it in the oven, or warm it in a saucepan—the former is best. Let-jt be lukewarm. The bread may be soaked in the basin by little warm wafer, with a plate over it, to 8tea,m it prtvi-Ws to pouring the milk in.

THE M,IBINOGION,-By Lady CHARLOTTE GCEst. lleesv Llandovery. > It is not among the least of the peculiarities of the periodical literature of the present day that it numbers among its most successful votaries the high-born and wealthy- of the lallll-names not more distinguished for rank J¡nd' worth than for the sedulous and eminently successful en- gagements in pursuits heretofore, in a spirit of perverse., aad discouraging depreciation, supposed to be confined to the poorer and middle ranks of life. There..ia no more graceful and feminine recreation—one that so much elevates and- sustains the native dignity of womanhood—-than' the culti- vation, eyen though unsuccessful, of those refining and •nobliug pursuits are the solace other private-hours;- apd the diadem which sits so-gracefully oJvjiheir brow, lifting- a lio.uit&ffom among the fribbles of-her "W!1 sex, and placing her on the ambitious level of the sterner one.

ttTitl HCCIC. -f. -A*ROCIOI;S. ^IRR^RT TO -E,-ii-ly on the morning of Tuesday ae'niiight the inhabitants of Narhnth Aud its iieigiibourhood were thrown into the greatest state -:of excitement ;!nt in consequence of a report that the ;Rev. J. W.-James,- of Robeston Wathan, had been shot at on the-previoils! night by some miscreants, whilst in the act of going to bed, and severely.injured. On proceeding to his residence, the subjoiued- account was found to be correct. About half-past ten o'clock on Monday ss'nnigiit, Mr. and Mrs. James weiit up stairs with the intention of retiring to .rest, and Mr. James, as was his usual custom, went into his dressing-room, which is immediately behind his bed-room, to the back of the house, and opened the shutters, for the .purposa of the state of the weather, when .two shots were fired at-Jiyji one, a ball, penetrated his right arm in the muscularpart between the elbow and shoulder the other charge, which was shot, was. most providentially warded off by the shutters. Contemporaneous with this, a gun, containing shot, was discharged into the bed-room whrn-e Mrs. James was, but which, fortunately, took no ,effect., The ban" aftcr passing through the arm, rebounded from-the wall,'aud was picked up i)1 tljb room. Ir. James, up to this moment, is doing wpll, and etevy hope is enter- tained'of his,fe^very. Whatever could have been the motivc.s of t'hese'cn'd-blooded. wretches (for they must have been two or three at least), who ai-e iiiot deserving of.* t,ie name of human beings, to make such. a cowardly and mur- derous attack on the lives of Mr. and Mrs. James, can only be unravelled by their own impious serves. Mr. James, as a public man, is confessedly blameless, and as private indi- viduals, both Mr. and Mrs. James stand- pre-eminent- for their deeds of kindness and charity, as the surrounding poor invariably testify. No clue is yet found for the apprehension of the find it is feared that the affair will remain in obscurity; if so, their guilty consciences be! -.their perpetual tormentors." THE MORMONXTKS, OR LATTE«SDAY SAINTS—On Mon- day last, the ilth instant, an inquest was taken before ir. T. Badger, c'ovojter, and a highly respectable jury, at the Gate Inn, at Handsworth Woodhouse, near Rotherham, oil .view of tlif- body of Robert Turner, of Sheffield, aged 35, by traile A spring-knife cutler, whose, .body had been discovered ■tin Sunday afternoon last, in the river Rother. It appeared jfrom the evidence of William Bellamy, Matthew Gregory, Simfdn'G-ee, and others, that TurnerJiad embraced the reli- gion of the Mormonites, or Latter-day Saints, and after preaching at Handsworth Woodhouse on Sunday, the 19th of November, he gave out that if any person felt thoroughly convinced of the truth of the religious principles which he professed and preached, and would attend early on the fol- lowing-morning, he would baptise them in the river Rother. Accordingly, very early on the following morning, several persons met Turner, their preacher, in a meadow called Fairy Meadow," adjoining the river above Woodhouse Mill, and the party, after praying and singing, and being ad- dressed by one of their preachers from Sheffield, as to the absolute necessity of their being born of water and of the Spirit, or else they coul^l-not enter the kingdom of Heaven, several of their disciples at once proceeded to strip off all their fclothes, and Turner plunged into the river, which was deep, and Considerably swoollen by the late rains, followed by one William Bellamy, a collier, whom he baptised in the name of the"Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. He got out safe and then one Matthew Gregory went in, and the priest, after plunging him over head, to use the man's own words, and nearly" sloekening" him, he, with great difficulty, half-drowned, much starved, and frightened, scrambled out of the river and saved his life, but Turner, on leaving hold of Gregory, unfortunately slipped forward into the deep water, and the current running strong, he was carried away into the middle of the river, and soon sank to rise no more Exertions were made to save the man without effect. Daily efforts have since been made to Had the body, an(1 on Sun- day afternoon last it was discovered standing upright in the river, with the head partly out of the water, and about 25 varus only from the place were he was drowned. The coroner and Iiii-y, after making strict inquiry into all the circumstances of the case, but strongly condemning the rash and inconsiderate conduct of the parties in plunging into the river, where it was both deep and dangerous, and x.ongly recommending the survivors not again to run such risks, returned a verdict of-" Accidental death." <■. AX oft INTERCOMMUNICATION.—As the tolls on the chaise of the rich, or 011 the two-horse cart of the farmer, between here and Newport (a distance of 12 miles) is 4s. and on Sundays 5s., this Rumney-hridge job is loudly com- plained against, and all, these particulars have been laid before the commissioners. To show the impolicy and injury to the country llenerally of this tax 011 inter-communication, I will state, what I am informed is a fact, that the farmers 'of a very large agricultural district at the other side of Rumney-gate are debarred from bringing their produce— their butter, and eggs, and" poultry, and cheese, and corn, and pigs-to Cardiff-market, a distance of only three miles, and they-are cons'quently driven to Newport-market, which is eight miles off, and which has an agricultural district of its own on the other side to. supply it with these articles. The farmer, therefore, is.driven to a worse market for the "sale -of his produce, and the Cardiff people are stinted of thir share of ilic supply, an,1 of course have a dearer market in which to buy than they otherwise would have but for this turnpike nuisance. The truit has offered £ 1,500 to "buy off this Rumnoy-brirlge gate, and the Newport trust £ J ,OGO, but these sums will not cover £4,1:30 thedebt secured on the. bridge all parties but the mortgagees, therefore, join in praying for a general act to abolish this toll. Per- haps a ready way of cutting this Gordian knot, as a new bridge .can be built for £ 1,200, would bj for these trusts to build one, and let the mortgagees enter upon the other as security. It would make a very valuable foreclosure. Times. • REGISTRATION OF VOTERS ACT.—The uncertainty of law affecting the rights of voters and their annual registration, so ''much complained of under the reform act, fro:n the conflict- ing decisions of the revising ban isters, will now be annually diminished by .the operation of the registration of voters act. The decisions of the- Court of Common Pleas, in cases of appeal, will-every year render the law both more simple and more certain. Thése-decisions during the present, term will settle many points, which were previously in a state of incer- titude. '1% following,. referring to cities and boroughs, have beanjjtecifled by the court during the present term :— 1. Tlrat aiiJiSvumber- of ropms in a building, such rooms "being, each £ '■ 0 Sufouat vawc, and let. separately to differ- ent occupiers, is sufficient to confer a qualification. 2. That the iian)u, of such occupiers, being inserted in the rate-book jointly with that of the jandlotls; is sufficient rating, and the payment of the rates by the landlords is sufficient payment on the part of such occupiers. 3.

MR. COKRETT'S OPINION OF IRISH REPEALERS.—For my part, I look upon Irishmen as my countrymen, as much as I do look upon my townsmen of Farnham, in Surrey. I know that Ireland has been most cruelly and insolently treated I have always abhorred, and expressed my abhor- rence of, that treatment; but I equally abhor all the notions of separation which some Irishmen foolishly or wickedly en- tertain. It i., necessary that all the parts of the kingdom should form but one whole, in order that the independence, and the power, and the renown of the whole should be maintained. Mr. John Hullah has been appointed Professor of Vocal Music in King's College, London. Directions are issued from the Tax-oiace to surveyors to be strict in charging all dogs.

ERUPTION OF MOUNT ^ETNA.—ROME, Dec. 5.—A letter from Bronte, dated Nov. 28th, states that the eruption of Mount jEtna still continues. The la\a had reached the de- clivity of the mountain, and was making its way towards the river. Some fertile plantations have been destroyed, and 70 men, who were working at an excavation, have been killed by the descending stream of lava. DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PHYSICAL AND MENTAL LABOUR. —Whilst we were in hand with these four parts of the insti- tutes, we often having occasion to go into the city, and from thence into the country, did, in some sort, envy the state of the honest ploughman and other mechanics. For one, when he was at his work, would merrily sing, and the ploughman whistled some self-pleasing tune, and yet their work both proceeded and succeeded but he that takes upon him to write doth captivate all the faculties and powers, both of his mind and body, and must be only attentive to that which he collecteth, without any expression of joy or cheerfulness while he is at his ivork.Sii- Edward Cukc. PITT DYllliG AND DEAD.—Lord Wellesley returned from his glorious administration at a very critical period in our parliamentary history. Mr. Pitt was stricken with the malady which proved fatal- a typhus fever, caught from some accidental infection, when his system was reduced by the stomach complaints which he had long laboured under. He soon appointed a time when his friend might come see him. This, their last interview, was in the villa on Putney Heath, where he died a few days after. Lord Wellesley called upon me there many years after; it was then occupied by my brother-in-law, Mr. Eden, whom I was visiting. His lordship showed me the place where those illustrious friends sat. Mr. Pitt was, he said, much .emaciated and enfeebled, but retained his gaiety and his constitutionally sanguine dis- position; he expressed his confident hopes of recovery. In the adjoining room he lay a corpse the ensuing week and it is a singular and melancholy circumstance, resembling the stories told of William the Conqueror's deserted state at his decease, that some one in the neighbourhood having sent a message to inquire after Mr. Pitt's state, he found the wicket open, then the door of the house, and nobody answer- ing the bell, he walked through the rooms till he reached the bed on which the minister's body lay lifeless, the sole tenant of the mansion of which the doors a few hours before were darkened by crowds of suitors alike obsequious and impor- tunate, the vultures whose instinct haunts the carcases only of living ministers.—L<rd Brougham's Historical Sketches just published. DIRECTIONS TO Por.ICEIISN.The learned Judge, Mr. l'aron ltolfe, in one of the cases tried before him on Mon- day, at Worcester, said, with regard to policemen putting questions to persons accused, that he was sorry that th claw had got into such a tender state upon this point. It was generally laid down that policemen were exceedingly -wrong in putting any questions to persons in their custody now, he thought that it. was often well for them to do so, for he had seen cases in which such questions were most essential to the establishment of a person's innocence however, as he did not like to differ from his brethren, lie always told policemen not to say anything to prisoners. ERUPTION OF MOUNT ./loTN.The Augsburgh Ga- zette" states, that the late eruption of Mount vEtna has been most fatal—130 persons have perished, and the hospitals arc filled with wounded. The smalltown of Bronte had hitherto escaped uninjured: but letters of the 4th inst. announced fresh disasters. INCENDIARISM IN THE AGRICULTURAL DISTRICTS begins to figure as a standing head in the papers; and although in particular instances there may be too ready an assumption of the fact, and much exaggeration, there appears to be no doubt that the burning of corn and hay-l icks, of barns and out-houses, is a popular pastime with the bold peasantry, their country's pride." It is a calamity; and so, of course, a party use is made of it. The" Liberals," honest folks! discover the remarkable coincidence, that there were incen- diaiy fires at the time ofthf: Wellington-Pee) Administration in 1830; and so it is insinuated that the Peel-Wellington Administration of lra: must be the cause of the new fires. Some 14 Conservatives," high-minded gentlemen recollect that members of the Anii-Corn-law League have spoken warmly about such "demonstrations;" and so ihey are de- nounced as the active instigators. There certainly is as little meanness as love lost between the rival factions. It is not necessary to lay the crime at the door cither of Sir Robert Peel or Mr. Cobden, in orjkn to find the cause. The fires of 1830, indeed, were sometimes imputed to the popular rage for Parliamentary Reform; and now there may be many, on both sides, who would connect it with the Anti-Corn-law agita tioii. But Swing is no theoretical politician. The in- cendiary is probably unable to read, certainly unable to comprehend abstract questions of politics or political economy. He has no care for Liberal institutions, or any institutions at all-noiie for free trade—simply because lie does not understand them. Among an illiterate peasantry, the incendiary, when you catch him, is commonly the most brutal and the most stupid. But the people," if they are not all incendiaries, look on in stolid apathy, refusing help or even make sport, or turn an honest penny by throwing fowl" over the hedge, in the confusion. The real causes of the incendiary fires in 1.8:30 were the abject poverty and ignorance of the people. Their poverty, by quashing hope, neutralizes the fear of punishment, and supersedes the motive to do well or avoid ill. Their ignorance makes them blind to the staring folly of buming a hay-ric-k, because they are uneay. It is difficult for a tolerably-educated man to conceive the vacancy of a clown's mind. Yet the clown has physical wants, instinctive affections, a glimmering sense of justice. He sees the fanner—the parson tells him that the farmer is no better a man than he is—making himself com- fortable, and doling out to him 9s. a week, or less; he fed, the irksome gnawing of insufficient food he is conscious of a boldness and muscular vigour for anything; but the inex- orahle working of the social machine keeps him poor and mortified. There he stands by the fire, bold, idle, because idealess, 'stupid, hungry, sullen casting up his 9s. or less against the hundreds of pounds' worth in the farm-yard, which may all be swept away, and yet leave the farmer not so poor as he is. It is sport to him to see his bad feeling gratified by another's deed, and he will be damned" if he will stop it. Why should lie ? :,You may remember num- berless reasons why he should; but you cannot make them penetrate his mind. Incendiarism is a crime of the agricul- tural regions. There has been a talk of incendiarv fires at Liverpool; but the crime is a rare exception in the seats of commerce and manufactures. Yet there is crime there, of one sort or another, in abundance; impunity is more facile, because it is easier to escape in a crowd there are combusti- ble stocks that would fire a whole town with the application of a single lucifer-match and as fo instigation, popular and even eloquent men have uttered to thousands the most in- flammatory harangues about the midnight torch," and wrapping whole cities in sheets of ilame, or some such terri- ble hint. The people are not of a more virtuous generation many of them are "peasants removed to the towns by the "home migration;" and they sutler the sharpest misery- worse in its aspects of crowded squalor than the misery of the rural districts. But, although multitudes of them are familiar with destitution, very many attain to comparatively easy circumstances; and any may do so, if not rise to afilu- ..ence. They see master-manufacturers who have been work- ing-men. They are, therefore, many of them comfortable, and none hopeless. The whole race is not doomed to poverty. When does a country-labourer ever rise to be a landowner? Moreover, the townsmen obtain some information bad enough, no doubt imperfect, crude, and vitiated in many ways; but still sufficient to be one reason why they do not instinctively go to burn the factories where they work. The poverty and ignorance that caused the incendiary fires in 1830 remain untouched in 1843, and again there are incen- it\rrfirA:s,8pectatQr, "Or:: i. ï;;
PEMBROKESHIRE WINTER. ASSIZE.
PEMBROKESHIRE WINTER. ASSIZE. Lagt week, the commission for this (,flu-itytTtso))(,necll)V the Hon. Sir Cressivell Cresswel!, Knight. <vho arrived at the the evening, j escorted by George Lort Phiili-w, E-q., the High Sheriff, and his javelin men. His lordship in alluding tot.he recent rehcrcnite disturbances in his charge to the gran jury said: There was a charge oi rioting, assembling, and assaulting the pound keeper at n,-ai- for the purpose of removing cattle that had been impounded but it seeaied to shew wiih what lacility a combination for the purpose of redressing a sup- posed public grievance could be made available for tiie I'.mheri-.ig ol private malice, and the redre.ssal of imaginary wrongs from an individual. This case partook much of the character of the daring 'outrages to which lie hiukalluded. Violencp- of the same sort had been used to curry on a sup- posed private right. His Lordship then observed that lie had received furthei information that morning- of the reckless spirit with which those sort of outrages were perpetrated. This was an outrage of a more aggravated character, shewing an utter recklessness of the safety of the person and of private property. IieWouhl forbear to remark further on the circumstances, as all he had heard was mere rumour; hut the perpetrators of these fearful outrages might depend upon it that they wouid receive a more dreadful lesson th:111 they now t,h;nk if they proceeded further in their wicked course of crime. The charge which had excited most attention, however, was a charge against a number of persons for aa outrage at I' ishi^uaad. He would abstain from saying anything about the case for several reasons. One of these was that whatever could he done by kind and considerate advice, and gentle admonition, to prevent the recurrence of outrage and-violence, was done by the learned judge who attended the last assizes for this county. ArHJther of his reasons was that her Majesty had been pleased to send down, a Commission of Inquiry into the country, who, no doubt, have inquired into the origin and progress of these unhappy d sturhances. As, therefore, their report has not hern given, any (disepStioVis he might make would he misplaced. Another reason was that the Attorney-General, who attended titis assize of the to prosecute the prisoners who were charged with this offence, had thought it advisable to look into the depositions and examine them very minutely. The result of his inquiry was that he was of opinion that the evidence that would be produced in support of the charge was not perfectly satisfactory and that he did not, therefore, deem it necessary, or, in fact, tliat it became him, to prefer any bill of indictment against the parties. That being his determination, the proper course, perhaps, would he to abstain from any comment on the case; and he should do so with the exception of stating that the parties charged had no cause tor and that the march of justice, though slow, seldom fails to overtake the guilty. Bills would be laid before then, and he had only to request tholt when one was found, it would be sent into court immediately. The grand jury having retired, Sir Frederick Pollock, the Attorney-Genera!, rose and aJ- dressed the judge. lIereferred to the cases from No B to 3t in the calendar, and applied that the recognizances to prosecute might be respited until the Spring Assizes. His lordship had pmbahly read the depositions, and had, therefore, learnt the character of the charge against the prisoners. From the depositions he (Sir F. P.) was of opinion that a more grave and serious offence, had never been committed. But his view of the importance of the subj..ct had been IIIlIch increased by a circumstance with which he had just been made acquainted, and by which he found that a crime of the most desperate and wicked character had just been perpe- trated. Th. re was no doubt of the fact of its having been commuted, and, therefore, he wouiduotcreateprejudiceby referring to it. He was desirous of doing justice as between the crown and the people, and he, therefore, wished to guard against preferring a light charge. He, besides, was not disposed to rik the defeat of justice by a premature trial. He had perused the dispositions carefully, and he did not think that it became him, in the discharge of his duty to the crown on the one hand, and to the people on the other, to prefer a bill ot indictment against the prisoners at the present assizes. He, therefore, prayed his lordship to respite the re- cognizances until the Spring Assizes. His Lordship-Certainly, Mr. Attorney-General, I think that is decidedly the best course to persue because if placed on their trial now, the prisoners might he acquitted,andno satisfaction would result in the. public mind that injustice had been satisfied. Mr. Nichol Carne applied for the prisoners that the costs of their coining here to day should be paid by the prosecutors. The judge.—I think not. George Hobson and Henry Guy were charged with having, on the seventh day of November last, stolen several articles of clothing, the property of one William Evans, of tiie parish of Nevern. Both prisoners pleaded guilty, and were sentenced to six months' imprisonment., and to be kept to hard labour during that time. The grand jury ignored the bill against Henry Evans, who was charged with having feloniously stolen two cows and six sheep. In the case of Joseph Thomas, charged with destroying the chain belonging to a turnpike gate at Narberth, theprosccutor did not appear to prosecute. In the case-of Joseph Protberoe, who was char ged with having stolen a poney, the property of Ann Napier, of Narberth, Mr. Nicole Carne applied to the judge to pnt off his trial until the Spring Assizes, in consequence of the absence ol a mat; rial witness, who was thell in New York, America, and would not arrive in Enciand until Fehruary next. His Lordship consented to the trial being put ofT accord- ingly. Mr. Lloyd Ilall, who appeared for the prisoner, applied for the costs of the witnesses who attended this day. HisLorlsiiip refuse-1 Mr. Hall's application. v*tlt riotously assembling, with others, and destroying a pound at Slehech, for the purpose ol getting out certain cattle which had been impounded. The case occupied a long time, and was ore Connected wiih the recent liebecca outrages. An alibi was set up (or the deienr.e, and the jury acquitted tl e prisoner. Wednesday. This day the learneu judge entered the court at nine o'clock, when John Evans, and Martha John were put upon their tiial fir having been guilty ot sending- a lett r threlening to "kill and murder" George Protheroe. The case was fully proved, but was of no public interest. The jury, a ter having been charged by the learned judge, returned a veadict of gui.iy, iltu| they were sentenced to live months' imprisonment. Wi liam Evans, an aged schoolmaster, was charged with having written the letter a||U(!| (o j|( (j1(, |Ht and for having counselled the 1't-(»>j-t..nrtl.J prisoners to send the said threatening letter. This case was fubv proved, mid a verdict of guilty was found against linn. imprisoned lor six mnnMs. Pilebe Phillips ['"t upon her trial lor having concealed the birth of a female cluld, in ihe parish of A,,irol!i. The jury returned a verdict o^ guilty, when his lordship sentenced her to three months imprisonment.
