WEDNESDAY. On the motion for the third reading of the Burials Bill, Lord EBRINGTON, having called the attention of the house to the inconvenience caused by the diversity of the arrange- ments required by different Bishops as the condition of con- secrating burial-grounds, moved the addition of a clause pro- viding that it should not be necessary for the burial board of any parish to do more than prove that a requisite line of demarcation had been made between the parts intended for the interment of members of the Church and others, and that no proceedings should be instituted against any minister of the Church on account of his having officiated at the interment in such ground after it had been approved by the Secretary of State, and before its consecration.—This led to some discussion, and ultimately the clause was rejected by 29 to 26, and the bill with some verbal alterations passed. The adjourned debate upon the additional clauses and the other amendments proposed upon the third reading of the Criminal Justice Bill was then resumed, and the bill ulti- mately passed.—The Crime and Outrage (Ireland) Act Con- tinuance Bill passed through committee. The Lords' amendments to the Turnpike Trusts Arrange- ment Bill, the Lunatic Asylums and Regulations Acts Amendment Bill, the Chinese Passengers' Ships Bill, and the Sale of Spirits (Ireland) Bill, were agreed to. The house went into committee on the Leases and Sales of Settled Estates Bill, when clause 20 led to some discussion, it being opposed by several members.—The SOLICITOR-GENERAL said that, as to divide the committee in its present state (there not being then forty members present) would only lead to an adjournment, by which the other business on the paper would be thrown over, it would be better to report progress.—The motion to report progress was agreed to. On the motion for going into committee on the Dispatch of Business, Court of Chancery Bill, Mr. HADFIELD moved that it be committed that day three months. The house divided, when the numbers were—For the motion, 0 ; against it, 35— majority, 35. [Considerable 'amusement was created by the result of the division, Mr. Hadfield and a gentleman, who acted with him as teller, being the only supporters of the mo- tion, and they of course were not counted.l The house then went into committee on the bill pro forma, and immediately resumed. The order for the second reading of the Accidents on Rail- ways Bill was discharged. The house adjourned at a quarter before six o'clock. THURSDAY. The Speaker took the chair at n00n... New writs were ordered for Kidderminster, in the,place of Robert Lowe, Esq., who had accepted the office of Vice-presi- dent of the Board of Trade ; for Kilmarnock burghs, in the place of the Hon. E. P. Bouverie, who had accepted the office of President of the Poor Law Board, in the room of Mr. Baines, resigned, and for Hertford, in the place of the Hon. W. F. Cowper, who had accepted the office of President of the General Board of Health. The Charitable Trusts Bill, the Union of Contiguous Benefices Bill, the Crime and Outrage (Ireland) Act Con- tinuance Bill, and the School Grants Security for Applica- tion Bill were read a third time and passed. LEASES AND SALES OF SETTLED ESTATES BILL.—The house went into committee on this bill Clauses Ito 19 were agreed to. Clause 20, the object of which is to prevent Sir Thomas Wilson availing himself of the bill, led to a long dis- cussion, and eventually the bill was withdrawn. The house went into committee on the Despatch of Busi- ness, Court of Chancey Bill, and its provisions were dis- cussed until four o'clock, when the house adjourned to six o'clock. NEWSPAPERS POR THE COLONIES.-Mr. TRORNELY asked the Secretary of the Treasury whether any steps had been taken to remedy the inconvenience recently sustained with regard to newspapers posted for the colonies and for foreign countries.—Mr. WILSON said that the Postmaster-General had had under his consideration the numerous complaints which had reached him on the subject, and that he had proposed cer- tain modifications which it was intended to carry out by a letter from the Treasury, with a view of remedying those complaints. By the act of the present session it was neces- sary that every newspaper sent abroad or to the colonies shbuld have an impressed stamp and a postage label besides. The effect of that was to make an apparent charge of two- pence upon all newspapers going to the colonies. The Post- master,General had proposed—and his suggestion had been acceded to by the Treasury—that newspapers going abroad should not require the impressed stamp at all, but that a single adhesive stamp should suffice, so that only a penny would in future be charged upon newspapers to the colonies. The impressed stamp, therefore, would be only applicable hereafter to newspapers, circulated at home, which it would entitle to transmission and retransmission through the post. It must be understood that all newspapers going abroad or to the colonies would requi,s‘ the Queens head affixed,

SUPPLEMENT TO THE LIVERPOOL STANDARD. the Jew fence, or marine-store keeping Christian, lurked near the door to hear whether his pupils were to join him at once, or after some whipping and im- prisonment. A lithe-limbed pickpocket took its thirtieth ,sentence with a pleasant bow to his judge ; an Irish beggar woman sobbed and howled frightfully during the hearing, and then flung a stone at the chief clerk's bald head ; a maniac preacher announced his divine mission, with hideous cries about eternal fire and the undying worm ; and a consumptive gay woman, in yellow satin and a lace bonnet, was bound over not to assault a brown and corpulent hag, who lent her the trappings for her dreadful trade, and exacted in return nearly the last sixpence it produced. Such was some of the " cases "of the day. Take a chair in a police-court for one morning, and you will, perhaps, go away with a resolve to do quietly, and to the best of your power, the work which lies nearest your hand, but not to shout very much for the future when Mr. Sadducee, in the Commons, boasts about this enlightened age ; and Earl Pharisee, in the Lords, brags about this Christian nation.---Aspen Court. ANECDOTE OF THE DUKE OF ORLEANS (EGALITE.)— He was passionately fond of sporting, and an excellent shot. One day, in 1782, he was out shooting in a vineyard where the grapes were still ungathered, and he strictly ordered those who attended him not to pick any. A partridge got up behind him, and, not observ- ing any one in the way, the duke levelled and fired ; but at the moment the gun went off, his courier Joseph, who had been stooping down that he might get at the grapes unobserved, suddenly rose, and re- ceived the whole charge in his neck and shoulder at only a few paces distant. The wound was very seri- ous, without being mortal, and the duke in great anxiety rushed towards the poor man, personally as- sisted in removing him from the ground, bestowed upon him the greatest care, and went to see him every day till he was completely recovered. He then pen- sioned him handsomely, and released him from further service ; but the courier, who was greatly attached to his master, solicited permission to remain, and thence- forward only did just what work he pleased. After this accident, the Duke of Orleans renounced shooting for ever. He told me several times afterwards, that whenever he took a fowling-piece in his hand he was seized with a fit of trembling, and always fancied he saw a man standing near the muzzle.-21f. De la Marek's Mirabeau, MATERNAL EDUCATION.-At "no period :(they say) has the harmony between the old and the young been so little manifested as in this age of high civilization ; in large towns this evil is more evident than in the country; this may be partly accounted for by the change which has taken place in the domestic habits of the people, both among the rich and the poor. The departure from the simplicity of nature, the thirst for fashionable accomplishments, the desire to adorn the outward form, and the aspiration after greatness rather than goodness, have caused society to neglect many of those means by which the inward being can be developed, and without which there can be no true greatness, no intrinsic worth. The history of true greatness can commonly be traced to the mother's care of her infant. The child feels true attachment to tlip breast that gives it nourishment, the bosom on which it reclines, the voice that soothes its sorrow, the eyes that speak to it what no tongue can utter, the arms by which it is embraced ; in short, the being by whom it is nursed, whether she be distinguished by the name of mother or nurse. These feelings cannot be transferred to another who occupies a secondary relationsbm,khough in that capacity she may expend immense wealth in adorn- ing its body, decorating its cradle, supplying i t with every 'variety of toys or sweetmeats for its gratification —even though the sacred name of mother be added— it can have no power to establish between them that union which must spring from within. The mother is the true' natural educator of the child ; and if she transfer that office to another during her child's earliest infancy, she need not be surprised if the perquisites also of that office be transferred, however strongly she may desire to retain them.---Ronge's Practical Guide. A GREEK PATRIARCH.—He appeared to be rather a young man, certainly not more than thirty-five years of age, with a reddish beard, which is uncommon in this country. He was dressed in purple silk robes, like a Greek bishop, and took his seat in the corner of the divan, and said nothing, and stroked his beard as a pasha might have done. * * * When we had smoked our pipes for awhile, and all the servants had gone away, I presented the letter of the Archbishop of Canterbury. It was received in due form, and after a short explanatory- exordium was read aloud to the Patriarch, first in English, and then translated into Greek. " And who," quoth the Patriarch of Constan- tinople, the supreme head and primate of the Greek church of Asia—" who is the Archbishop of Canter- bury ?" "What !" said I, a little astonished at the question. " Who," said he, "is the archbishop ?" " Why, the archbishop of Canterbury." "Archbishop of what ?" said the Patriarch. " Canterbury," said I. " Oh," said the Patriarch ; " Ah, yes ! and what is he ?" Here all my English friends and myself were taken aback sadly ; we had not imagined that the high-priest before us could be ignorant of such a mat- ter as the one in question. The Patriarch of the Greek church, the successor of Gregory Nazianzen, St. John Chrysostom, and the heresiarch Nestorius, seemed not to be aware that there were any other denominations of Christians besides those of his own church and the church of Rome. But the fact is, that the Patriarch of Constantinople is merely the puppet of an intriguing faction of the Greek bankers and usurers of the Fanar, who select for the office some man of straw, whom they feel secure they can rule, and whose appointment they obtain by a heavy bribe paid to the Sultan ; for the head of the Christian church is appointed by the Mahommedan Emperor.—Curzon's Levant.

PROVISIONS. LIVERPOOL, Auo. 10.—The demand for beef has been more extensive this week than for some time past ; purchasers confine themselves, however' to their immediate wants. Prices remain unchanged. In pork, also, we have to note more activity, a con- siderable business having been transacted at a slight concession in price. Bacon has moved off pretty freely at fall rates, and the stock in first hands is becoming fast reduced. The sales of lard have been very limited, even at a reduction of 3d to 6d per cwt. Choice parcels of cheese are readily sold at extreme prices, whilst middling and inferior sorts are very hard to quit. Grease butter is in request, but there is very little here. AUGUST 13.—Tnere was only a limited amount of business transacted in butter last week, but owing to the continued high advices from Ireland holders are pretty firm, and no alteration can be made in the quotations of our last report. Waterford, Dungarvon, Carrick, and Clonmel, 95s to 998; Kilkenny, Carlow, and Wexford, 94s to 96s ; and Limerick, 88s to 94s per cwt. 91ba,u2nt1c It lee buttered, firkins,l2l 4m bp aol9reotse bdkaefcrgoos nm, , 86I1c3ei ill acdrnsod. c,akfnsr,,o, m73lttsi lei rebco4extsheisita,o, nat nsh,de692 18 tierces ibn as tr aar nen tids, 143 kegs lard.

CORN. LIVERPOOL, Ana. 10.—A limited attendance of either local or country millers and dealers at market this morning. and the weather being very floe the trade ruled exceedingly flat. The business in wheat, of any sort, is of the merest retail description, and at somewhat irregular rates; we may quote an average decline of 3,1 per bushel from the currencies of Tuesday; and flour, with an equally slow inquiry, must be noted Is per sack cheaper. Bailey and beans are nominally unalierel either in value or demand. Oats are steady, and there was a moderate sale for oatmeal at about late prices. Indian corn is very dull to-day at a reduction of ',id to is per quarter. BRITISH. Wheat, 43, 701 b., s. d. s.

Wheat was duil of sale, mid Id to 2d per. bushel lower. English flour was offered at a reduction of is to is 61 per sack, but Spanish was only Gd per sack cheaper. Oats and oatmeal on the contrary were a little dearer, the former Id per bushel, and the latter Gd per load. Beans brought fully as much money. PRESTON, Auo. 11.—There was a poor show of English wheat at the Corn Exchange to-day, the demand for which was slow at a decline of Is per windle, and upon parcels in granary a similar reduction was submitted to. Flour dull, and Is per pack lower. Beans as before. Oats nearly nominal. Oatmeal still neglected, though offered at an abatement of (id per load. WAKEFIELD, Atm. 3.—Although the trade is not so depressed as at Leeds on Tuesday, wheat must be quoted is to 2s per quarter lower than on this day week. with a limited business. In barley, beans, oats, and shelling there is no alteration to report. WISBECH, Auo. 11.—There has been a small show of wheit at market to-day ; last week's rates are fully supported, but a few fine parcels make Is. more. Beans, oats, &c., nominal. - . NEWCASTLE-UPON TYNE, Auo. 11.—At to-day's market, with a moderate show of farmers' wheat, prices ruled about the saine as on this day se'nnight. South country and foreign wheats were Is per quarter dearer than on Tuesday, or nearly Is per bat usyisei. quarter below the rates of last Saturday. Norfolk red wheat sold Wolgast at 778, fine Holstein 753 per quarter 63Ibs. per Barley is little inquired after, and worth only 33s to Its per quarter 56Ibs. per bushel. Scotch oats have been sold during the week at 32s per quarter 421bs. per bushel, but to-day met a very slow sale. In other articles no change. CORK Ann. 11.—Weather continues unsettled, showery, and warm. Holders of breadstuffs are indifferent about sales, and prices are well sustained ; while buyers are reserved in their operations and evince little speculative feeling, but, stocks being light, a fair consumers' business is done. Harvest has partially commenced, and samples look well. The potato crop is suffering in about the same proportion as the last two years. DUBLIN, Auo. 10.—Our corn market to-day was again very dull for every description of grain, without any alteration in the prices of Tuesday. A few small samples of new oats appeared— the condition and quality indifferent; the tawny were taken at 158, and the white at is per barrel.

IVERPOOL ROYAL INFIRMARY.---It is I with much regret that the Committee find themselves com- pelled to make an urgent APPEAL to the Public on belialf of this Institution, Owing to the serious diminution in the Income, from a falling off in Donations and Legacies,wliich amounted, in 18 5 2, t0.e2,219 ; 185 3,£1,315; 185 4 re 775; and the high prices of all Articles of Consumption, the past year closed with a heavy Debt of nearly £1,400, which is daily increasing, from the same causes being still in operation. Unless this be checked by timely suc- cour, no alternative will be left but to curtail the Relief hitherto afforded to the Sick and Disabled Poor of the community; a course much to be deprecated, and one from which t'oe Committee hopefully trust the Public will spare them the necessity of re- sorting.

His method of constructing and adapting Artificial Teeth is unerring, whilst his charges will be found exceedingly moderate, and quite as low as a proper exercise of professional skill and the employment of none but the very best materials and first-rate workmanship will admit of. 72, RO D N EY- STRE ET.

F—Zaba, and Lieut-Colonel Szulezewski, Secretary of-the Association of the Friends of Poland,. &c..- After some remarkalrom the Chairman, Lord EBRINGTON, .whose appearance was. the -signal for uproar, moved the following resolution : "That it will afford the best security -for the preservation of the balance of power- in Europe, and the protection ..of its liberties, that Polar,d. should be restored as a-separate and. in.- dependant. State; a measure, the rocessity of which: has,been recognised by most. of the great Conservative statesmen of Europe." _ _ • Th.emotion having been. seconded tby Sir. Robert Pcel.,_ Mr. COLLETT, araid_raucli uproar, ansi confusion,_ moved: the following amendment. : "- That the tneeting, cordially desiring. the restoration:of Pol- ish, nationality, cannot forget that the destruction of that nationality was mainly owing to the perfidious conduct of Lard Palmerston from 1831 to 1846. That so long as LordTalmer- ston is a servant of the Crown no proposition for the restoratu a-Poland can be -anything but a delusion and a snare.' That the truth of this,..resolutiou is roved by the fact.that Lord Palmerston has carried on the war in such ar• manner as to avoid, as- far as ?pssible, injuring:Russia, while he has proposed terms of peace which would entitel*destroy the -independence of Turkey." A scene of the-greatest disordered confusion-ensued, in the midst of which ;the Chairman loft the hall.

HORTICULTURE. FLOWER GARDEN.—Now that the effect of the present arrangement of the colours in the beds can be fairly seen, there is an excellent opportunity for noticing any mistakes, and determining upon the arrangements for next season, and this should be done without delay. When it is decided what each bed is to be occupied with next season, a plan of the garden should be made, writing the names of the plants on the beds according to the arrangement decided upon. This will-be of the greatest service in showing at any time what quantity of each kind of- plant has to be propagated ; and unless some method of this kind is adopted, it is not unusual to find at planting-out time that there is a scarcity of some things and too many of others, whereas, those who have their plan to refer to can tell at a glance the exact number required of everything, and avoid mistakes in getting up too many of one thing and too few of another, and all the anxiety and confusion of working without a well defined object in view. Dahlias are growing very rapidly, and will require to be gone over very fre- quently to keep the side branches securely tied in ; for when left untied, they are readily broken off by a thunder-storm. Hollyhocks must also be securely tied to their stakes. Continue to remove dead flowers from roses, and give plenty of manure water to the autumn-blooming varieties. Plant out rooted cuttings of pansies, &c., in nursery beds in a shady situation, keeping them well watered, if the weather proves dry, until they get established. Finish budding roses at once, if not already done, and also get border carna- tions, picotees, and cloves layered without further loss of time. KITCHEN GARDEN.—The main breadth of spinach for furnishing the winter supply should be sown at once ; also prepare ground for winter onions. Get a good breadth of lettuce and endive planted out for the autumn supply, and sow some hardy sort of lettuce for planting out against south walls, or in frames, to come in after the frost cuts off the out-door supply. Dig down exhausted plantations of strawberries, and get the ground planted with winter stuff, if there is not already sufficient of this planted ; and make a further sowing of turnips, if these are likely to be scarce before the winter is over. Attend to cutting and dry- ing herbs as they are ready, and do not allow shallots

However, he com- menced using Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which had a miraculous effect, and in the course of a month completely healed the wound and restored him to health. eelVuortham FIFTY YEARS' indescribable aiony from dyspepsia, at nervous- ness, asthma, cough, constipation, flatulency, spasmys,..o Barry's the stomach, and vomitings, have been removed ;.

CATTLE. LIVERPOOL, Aro. 13.—With a small increase of beasts at this day's market trade has ruled more active at nearly id per lb. improvement on last week's rates. There has been a considerable falling off from our late very extensive supplies of sheep and lambs, chiefly the latter, consequently the trade ruled firmer, but not quotably dearer. Beef, 6icl to id ; mutton, 63d to id ; and lamb, 64,1 to 7d per lb. Cattle, 1,767; sheep and lambs, 16,240. SALFORD, Alio. B.—The market to-day was very steady at former rates. There was only a small number left unsold. Best beef, 6Fd to Mil: middling, sid to Gd ; cows, 5d to sid; best wedders, in wool, bid to 7id •, clipped, 6d to 6id ; ewes, 5d to 50 ; lambs, bid to 'ad; calves, 5d to Gd. Number of beasts, 786; sheep and lambs, 9,876; calves, 91. DUBLIN, Avo. 9.—With a very fine day, and from the high prices heretofore had for meat, the supply was larger than for some time past. Demand for prime meat good, but inferior dull at reduced quotations. Beef, sinking offal, 56s to 58s and 65s per cwt; mutton, 51:1 to 6d and 7d; veal, 7d to 8d per lb; lambs, 183 to 28s each. Pigs, in carcase, 6d per•lb ; heavy not quoted.

The place ultimately formed itself into an angry wound, which, instead of showing a disposition to heal, became alarmingly worse, and although he used every available remedy, it was feared by himself anti friends that amputation of the limb would be the only means of sax ing his life. However, he com- menced using Holloway's Ointment and Pills, which had a miraculous effect, and in the course of a month completely healed the wound and restored him to health.

LIVERPOOL, August 4, 1855. ROYAL BANK BUILDINGS. - Owing to the entire absence of Speculative operations in the Market, concurrently with an increase in the Imports, and a marked improvement in the quality of good Medium Tea, which has become the more observable as the season has advanced, we are enabled to call the attention of Families to the article which can now be furnished at 3/4 per lb. Although the Duty upon Tea was raised 3d. per lb. in the month of April this year—still, in consequence of a large Stock of Tea having been pressed on the Market, which affords a wider scope for the selection of suitable qualities, we are in a position to supply Families upon unusually favourable terms. . The EFFECTS OF SPECULATION IN TEA HAVE BEEN LATELY NO LESS CONSPICUOUS THAN DlSASTROUS:—Notwithstanding the clearest practical evidence, which has been furnished season after season, that England, as well as every other country, can be abundantly supplied with Tea from China, of every quality and in any quantity, the spirit of reckless and inordinate Specu- lation has continued as rife as ever, until arrested this year by ruinous losses.—This foolish propensity having been laid prostrate by the dire consequences which it has brought upon itself, we may now for some time anticipate a healthier tone in the Market, and we have every confidence that the change resulting from this will enable us to give every advantage to our extended connection of consumers, which continued inflexible adherence to quality is calculated to secure.

Gregson's saw-mill, yesterday about noon, and was almost immediately killed. An inquest will be held to-day. JAMES ANDERSON, a peripatetic ragman, was sent to gaol for a month by the borough magistrates yesterday, for not satisfactorily accounting for the possession of a green uilted alongbed cover, which, with sundry small "pickings,' were found upon him by officer 352, as he was coming into the bo- rough, apparently from West Derby, on Saturday afternoon. BANKRUPTCY COURT, YESTERDAY.—(Before commis- sioner Perry.) —Geo. Bateman, late lessee of the Cattle Market Hotel, Stanley, came up on his adjourned last examination. The balance-sheet not being filled in proper time, the case was adjourned until the 27th inst.—Orlando Newton, late a publican in Regent-road, passed his last examination. The 12th of November was fixed for the certificate meeting. CRICKET.-7-AIGBIIRTH 17. ROCK FERRY.—A match between the Aigburth and-the Royal Rock Ferry Clubs was commenced on the ground of the former on the 30th ult., but, in conse- quence of the unpropitious state of the weather, only one innings on each side could be played. On Wednesday, the game was resumed, and terminated in favour of the Rock Ferry Club, with seven wickets to spare. The winning club was only formed this season, and this early success augurs well for its futur9_progress. A STRANGE WAY OF "SAVING ONE'S BACON."---AIM Jane Brewer, a distressed-looking young girl, was charged by Mrs. Mary Ann Moss, of Lowndes-street, with defrauding her. The complainant said the prisoner's parents having had their house and property stripped by bailiffs, she had given her meat and clothing, and employed her to run on errands, or to do any little service in return for the charity bestowed on her. On Saturday afternoon she sent her with 12s. to release some articles from pledge. This the girl did, and she was sent a second time with 45., to redeem some other articles. This time she appropriated the money and spent it. Mr. Bluck, who appeared for her, urged that it was merely a breach of trust. Addressing the complainant, he asked, " She was not a servant at all, was she ?" Complainant : "Oh no, sir, she was merely in my house out of charity ; I wasn't to pay her anything !" Mr. Bluck : " Oh, of course not ; that's just what saves ,her bacon !" (Laughter.) The bench viewed the case as one of breach of trust, and discharged the girl. A STREET ROBBERY SMARTLY DETECTED.—WiIIiam Dickenson, a carter, was charged yesterday before the magis- trates with stealing a bag of Indian corn. About six o'clock on. Saturday evening, while police-officer 395 was on duty in Regent-street, a person came up and informed him that he sus- pected a robbery had been committed. He then detailed what he had seen. The prisoner was proceeding along Regent-road with.acart load of empty sacks. Before him was a cart with full Saeks of Indian corn. He took one of the full sacks, and with the assistance of the other driver placed it upon the shafts of his own cart, and shortly afterwards transferred it to a donkey cart which came up, and began to drive off. The person who witnessed the transaction then informed the officer,wlio apprehended the driver of the donkey cart and the prisoner, who was following it. The donkey cart had been en- gaged by,semc man who was also following it, but disappeared on seeing it stopped by the police-officer. The prisoner's cart and the other, it appeared, were employed in carting from a ship to a warehouse in Barton-street, for Messrs. Franghedi and Co. These circumstances having been proved by witnesses, Super- intendent Clough ask where was the driver of the cart from which the sack was stolen ? The Officer : He was at the horse's head when ;the bag was taken, and did not see the robbery.—Mr. Clough: You should have brought him here.— The case was remanded until to-day, for the production of the other carter. No MISTAKE, Tarps TlME.—George Maitland, a showily- dressed young man, of "smart " adress, and a decided "me- tropolitan" accent, was brought up at the Police-court yester- day, by officer 534, charged with attempting to pick pockets at the Prince's-parade. Mrs. Priscilla Robinson, a rather plain-spoken" old lady, from Manchester, said :—" I was on the pierhead this morning wi' my good man, looking at the ,Isle of Man packets going off, -when I felt summat thrutching me, and a turnin' roun' I see this young chap's hand in my poaret. I says, Oh, you naughty man.' (Laughter.) My hushuad says to him, `You must be given into the hands o' the police, or you'll be pickin' some one else's pockets !'

-WESTERN TEA COMPANY. READ THAT, Extract from Mr. Robert Roberts's circular, of Royal Bank Buildings. "Owing to the entire absence of speculative operations in the market, concurrently with an increase in the imports, and a marked improvement in the quality of good medium tea, which has become the more observable as the season has advanced, we are enabled to call the attention of families to the article which can now he furnished at 3s. 4d. per lb. " Although the duty upon tea was raised 3d. per lb. in the month of April this year—still, in consequence of a lane stock of tea having been pressed on the market, which affords a wider scope for the selection of suitable qualities, we are in a position to supply families upon usually favourable terms The Effects of Speculation in Tea have been lately no less conspicuous than disastrous :—Notwithstanding the clearest prac- tical evidence, which has been furnished season after season, that England, as well as every other country, can be abundantly sup- plied wills tea from China, of every quality, and in any quantity, the spirit of reckless and inordinate speculation has continued as rife as ever, until arrested this year by ruinous losses.—This foolish propensity having been laid prostrate by the dire consequences which it has brought upon itself, we may now anticipate for some time a healthier tone in the market, and we have every confidence that the change resulting from this will enable us to give every advantage to our extendd connection of consumers, which con- tinued inflexible adherence to qualify is calculated to secure."

rARIETIES. WHICH is the best Way to make a coat last ? Why, make the vest and trousers first. WHY cannot a gentleman legally possess a short walking-stick ? Because it can never be-long to him. THERE'S no place like home unless you havn't got one, then anywhere is better than nowhere. A CANDID LAWYER.---" Do you think I'll get justice done me ?" said a culprit to a counsel. " I don't think you will," replied the other ; " for I see two men on the jury who are opposed to hanging." " I'm bored to death," said a slatternly girl. "Yes, I perceive you have holes in your stockings," was the rejoinder. PITHY FABLE.—Once upon a time a tree fell upon a woodman ; the woodman reproached, but the tree with a bow replied, "I didn't do it until you axed me." AN Irish guide told Dr. James Johnson, who wished for a reason why echo was always of the feminine gender, that " Maybe it was because she always had the last word." " THERE is no truth in men," said a lady in com- pany ; " they are like musical instruments, which sound a variety of tones." "In other words, madam," said a wit, who chanced to be present, " you believe that all men are lyres !" A GRAMMATICAL CHARACTER.---A worthy minister, noted for his wit, on being asked what kind of a per- son the wife of Mr. - was, replied, " I will give you her grammatical character. She is a noun substantive ---seen, felt, and heard." A GENTLEMAN, of the name of Pepper, had been several times thrown from a spirited horse, and was relating the circumstance to a friend, and at the same time observing that he had never given his horse a name. " I think," replied his friend, " you should call him Peppercaster." A LITTLE COMFORT.—The wife of Joseph T. Little, of Arnold, recently made her husband a present of three little Littles at one birth. We trust that the fortunate father will be able to appreciate in proper time the full force of the old adage—" Every ' Little' helps."—American Courier. INNOCENTLY POPPING THE QUESTION.—"CharIes," said a young lady to her lover, " there is nothing inte- resting in the paper to-day, is there, dear P" " No, love ; but I hope there will be one day, when we both shall be interested." The lady blushed, and said, of course, " For shame, Charles." A QUAKER, who was examined before a court, for not using any other language than " thee," " thou," and " friend,' was asked by the presiding functionary ---" Pray, Sir, do you know what we sit here for ?' " Yea, verily, I," said the Quaker, " three of ye for two dollars each day, and the fat ono in the middle for one thousand dollars a year'

LEGAL INTELLIGENCE. BOYLE v. WrsEmAILL-At the Croydon Assizes a new trial in this case was fixed for to-day, but after a consultation between the counsel it was postponed till to-morrow, but it is understood that it will be settled; the .Cardinal probably paying all the costs, including the damages given to Mr. Boyle at Kingston Assizes. THE WAR. DESPATCH FROM GENERAL SIMPSON: The Gazette contains a despatch from General iiMpson dated 31st July. Notwithstanding the rocky nature of the gronnd.and light- ness of the nights, the works were steadily thirugh slowly advanced in the direction of the Redan. An agreeable change had taken place in the weather ; heavy showers of rain had occasionally fallen. Several reconnaissances had been made from the Valley of Baidar towards Ozenbash, Aitodor, and through Phoros Pass towards Allupka—the enemy nowhere appearing in any force; but the narrowness of the mountain road, with the exception_ of the Woronzow, makes it unnecessary for them to alter their concentrated position on the heights of Mackenzie and the Plateau of the Belbeck. Health of the troops continued satisfactory.. Casualties from 27th to 29th July, inclusive .—Killed, 1 sergeant and 11 rank and file. Wounded, Lieut. A. Goren, 19th, slightly; Captain L. Thornton, 44th, slightly; MajOrC. F. Campbell, 460, slightly; Captain N. Steevens, 88th, slightly; Assistant-Surgeon E. Lundy, 79th, slightly; 2 ser- geants, and 106 rank and file. Prince Gortschakoff telegraphs on the 9th :—" There is nothing new. The fire of the enemy is weak." The Times' Paris correspondent, writes :—" A private letter from St. Petersburg mentions that great depression prevails among all classes in that city, owing to the duration of the war, which completely paralyses all branches of commerce and industry. This depression has gained even the leading per- sonages of the old Russian party, hitherto so warlike, but who are now beginning to despond. Nearly all labour is suspended in the manufacturing quarters, in consequence of the want of primary materials, which no longer arrive from abroad, and also from the want of hands—all being employed in the defence of the empire. The produce of the soil has no longer a market abroad, and in the interior business is at a stand still, and articles of the most indispensable kind have attained an exor- bitant price. Coffee, sugar, and salt are now luxuries hardly, to be seen, except on the sacrifice of money imposed by the present circumstances; and the number of Bayards who will. be ruined by the war is beyond all idea."

,i-k.RD. to remain in the ground after the tops die down, as, in the event of wet weather, they will make fresh roots, which prevents their keeping. Get a good breadth of cabbage planted thickly in rich ground to furnish winter greens.—Gardener's Chronicle. IMPROVING FRUIT, &c.—A correspondent of the Gardeners' Chronicle says," I have, from observation and a series of trials, ascertained that all sorts of fruits can be raised about one third larger than they usually are, and their qualities much improved, simply by sup- porting the fruit in the following manner :—As soon as it is fully developed, it should not be allowed to hang its weight upon its stalk, as the increasing weight strains the stalk, and in that way lessens the quantity of nutritious fluid flowing to the fruit. This may be obviated in some cases by laying the pear, apple, or whatever it may be, upon a branch, and fixing it with a piece of matting, to prevent its being moved by the wind ; or by putting it into a small net, made for the purpose, at the same time keeping the stalk in a hori- zontal position, when it can be done without twisting or bending it—as the bending, either accidentally or by the weight of the fruit, is in my opinion most injurious to its growth ; for the pores of the woody stalk are strained on one side of the bend, and compressed on the other ; hence the vessels through which the re- quisite nourishment flows being thus partially shut up, the growth of the fruit is retarded in proportion to the straining and compressing of the stalk, The fixing of the fruit also prevents the risk of its fallinc, off and get- ting damaged before it reaches maturity. I have grown dahlias upon the same principle, and with similar success, and I have no doubt that the most of flower- blooms, especially those which are weighty and inclin- ing, can be grown much larger by the system referred to, and, in short, all sorts of vegetables, trees, &c."

The attention of the Public is invited to the following Experi- ments (see Liverpool Mercury and Standard of following dates :) ' Liverpool, December Bth, 1854. " We hereby certify that we have this day witnessed some very highly satisfactory experiments at Milners' Phoenix Safe Works, proving the perfect security of their newly-patented Gunpowder- proof Solid Locks and Safe Doors,' against attempts to force the same open with gunpowder ; the door of another safe, experi- mented upon, fitted with the open six-lever and detector lock. although of equal strength, being shattered and blown off by the explosion of the gunpowder introduced, through the key-hole.— Wm.

The most extensive and complete in the world, employing from two to three hundred hands, assisted by powerful, original, and elaborate machinery and implements, adapted for every branch of the work; established for carrying out the important improve- ments under Milners' Quadruple Patents to the interior and ex- terior of their Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safes, and for supply- ing to the public the Strongest Safeguards against Fire, Robbery, or Violence extant, at the lowest prices consistent with the most perfect efficiency and security. CAUTlON.—Milners' Holdfast Safes are of three qualities— the cheapest superior to any other safes—and range under three Lists, namely, Milners' Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 2, at los. per foot; Milners' Strong Holdfa.st and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 3, at 15s. per foot; Milners' First-class Strong Holdfast and Fire-resisting Safe, List No. 4, at 205. per foot. The public are deceived by comparisons being made between the prices of the latter superb class of Milners' Safes and the inferior articles offered by incompetent makers to booksellers, ironm,on- gas, brokers, or any others who will incur the serious responsibi- lity of selling them, which are really worthless articles, and dear at any price.- What greater delusion than an unsafe Safe?

A First-class Ivory Tint Enamelled DAGUER- REOTYPE MINIATURE, which cannot be surpassed for bril- liancy of finish or durability, 128.6 d. Mr. E. takes great pleasure in acquainting his numerous Patrons and Friends, that he has fitted up the above spacious Gallery with all therequisites for producing first-class Portraits. Mr. E. begs to state that, in producing a really good Daguer- reotype, a combination of appliances and favourable circum stances are required, deprived of which the Art sinks to the insignificance justly belonging to the very many wretched dis- torted abortions, claiming the name of Photographs, and are to be seen in almost every street. Mr. E.'s long practice in the above Art has resulted in the.pro- duction of Portraits as much superior to the ordinary Photograph as the leading artist is to the street miniature painter. Rennived from 50, Bold-street, to Blaze's. New. Music-hall, Bold-street.

two forged notes to a girl named Anne Cort, a native of Bol- ton, with whom he had lived at Manchester for some time. Cort was called as a witness under rather curious cir- cumstances. She received the notes from him at Manchester, as a consideration for his having taken her from her native place. When she returned to Bolton she got one of the notes changed by one of her friends, and shortly afterwards it was discovered to be a forged one, and she was taken up, and com- mitted for trial, the magistrates not believing her story as to how she became possessed of the note. On being arraigned at the bar amongst a number of other prisoners she at once recognised Hall, who was also in the dock, as the man who had given her the forged note. She communicated with Mr. Harris, the head constable, who informed the prosecuting counsel, and the result was that Cort was transferred to the witness-box, and gave her evidence against Hall, who feebly denied her story. The jury, however, believed it, and found Hall guilty. Sentence was deferred until this (Tuesday) morning: The prosecution against Cort was abandoned, and at his lordship's direction she was set a liberty. ErrEGLARY AT MANCHESTER.-3-ohn Maddocks, 16, tailor, and Henry Campbell, 18, factory worker, were indicted for having at Manchester, on the night of the 30th of March last, burglariously entered the dwelliug-house of Charles Chaplin, and stolen a shawl, a cloak, a pair of boots, two coffee-pots, and sundry other articles, to the value of £lO. The police discovered that the house hadbeen entered, and saw two Mien coming away from the place, one of whom (Maddocks) they captured. Campbell was afterwards apprehended on suspi- cion, and the stolen boots were found upon him. Haddocks pleaded guilty, and wassentenced to 12 months' imprisonment. Campbell was acquitted. STABBING AT MANCHESTEE.—MichaeI Doulin, ;2t,„, factory worker, was indicted on a charge of maliciously stabbing Charles Macdonald, in a public-house row in the ebove town, on the 12th of May. The prosecutor, in cross-examination, admitted that lie was drunk, used Offensive language, and struck the first blow. The prisoner was found guilty of un- lawfully Wounding, and sentenced to 'twelve months' im- prisonment, with hard labour.

At au early'hour on the morning of the'day:named, the prosecutor was'sitting on some door steps,latherlipsy, when he was as- saulted by three men. Another •rntin,•who saw the assault, •informed the police, who found three 'men running away from :tht place, but only succeeded in"cailturing one, the prisoner Bryan.

DEAFNESS AND DISTRESSING NOISES IN THE EARS AND HEAD. This day published, by a Physician of fifteen years' practice in diseases of the Ear only, a Book, to be given away or sent by post to any part of the world, MODE of SELF-CURE for Country Patient:, by means of his new and infallible treatment, only dis- covered within the last few weeks by Dr. MANFRED, Physician- Aurist. Thousands in this short space of time have been restored to perfect hearing, without absence from home or causing the least pain or inconvenience to the most aged or nervous sufferer, although having been deaf for twenty or thirty years; many are enabled, almost instantaneously, to hear a whisper. This die- covery has been proclaimed by all the head Physicians and Sur- geons of London, to be one of the most miraculous and invaluable ever made in Aural Surgery; and the same gentlemen have pur- loaded Dr. MANFRED to give publicity to it, for the purpose of saving the poor afflicted from the advertising quacks with assumed titles, whose fraudulent advertisements area disgrace to the press, their only desire being to plunder the afflicted ; and, in doing so, many hundreds are rendered incurable for life through their entire ignorance of the treatment. Doctor MANFRED, M.R.C.5.,E., Physician and Consulting Surgeon to the Institution for the Cure of Deafness, 84, Wimpole-street, Cavendish-square, London, receives Patients as above, and applies his New Treatment every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, from 11 until 3.—Poor, on Monday and Thursday, between 6 and 8 in the Evening. Dr. MANFRED hopes they will not refrain from seeking relief by means of his recent discovery; and if confidence is required, Dr. MANFRED will be happy to show thousands of letters from per- sons cured, both rich and poor. FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—The math- fold advantages to the Heads of Families from the posses- sion of a Medicine of known efficacy,. that may be resorted to with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sick- ness, occurring in families more or less every day, are so obvious to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every housekeeper in the kingdom. They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor, and invigorate the spirits, and if taken after an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. " For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of Winchmore Hill, Middlesex,) I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton a Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health, which I attribute to Frampton'a Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it." Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddi- ness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills are truly excellent, removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very pre- valent with the sex; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Ner- vous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are confidently recommended as the beat medicine that can be taken ; and for children of all ages they are unNualled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they unite the recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required. Sold by all Medicine Vendors, price Is. lid. and 25. 9d. per box. See the name of "THOMAS PROUT, 229, Strand, London," on the Government Stamp.

IVERPOOL ROYAL INFIRMARY.---It is I swith much regret that the Committee find themselves com- pelled to make an urgent APPEAL to the Public on behalf of this Institution, Owing to the serious diminution in the Income, from a falling off in Donations and Legacies,which amounted,in 1852, t0.e2,219 ; 1853,,£,315; 185 4,.e775; and the high prices of all Articles of Consumption, the past year closed with a heavy Debt of nearly £1,400, which is daily increasing, from the same causes being still in operation. Unless this be checked by timely suc- cour, no alternative will be left but to curtail the Relief hitherto afforded to the Sick and Disabled Poor of the community; a course much to be deprecated, and one from which the Committee hopefully trust the Public will spare them the necessity of re- sorting.

ILLUST_RATIONS OF ENGLISH PROVERBS. "A merry Christmas and a happy new year!" A PROVERB this in general use just now—a greeting to be found in every body's mouth. Well, if the lips truly had as close a connection with the heart as they ought to have, the wish would be sincere, and being sincere, whether realized or not, would bring home to the object of our professed regard a feeling of trust and thankfulness. There is, however, in these our days such a hypocritical assumption of the garb of friendship, that renders it a very difficult matter to ascertain the real meaning and expression of seemingly kind words and offices; there exists a hollowness, a rottenness in what looks to be the soundest heart : in a word, those about us in the dealings of life, are not in a great measure what they appear to be. In this respect they may be said to resemble a mirage in the desert, which seems in the distance to be a lake of water; but, instead of relieving the thirst of the perishing caravan, allures with false hope, and serves only to provoke the dying curse of those whom it deceives. Just as a cypress tree, so is mere profession of e3teem: it is tall and command- ing, but where is the fruit ? Let us, then, and especially at this festive season, seek to cultivate true sincerity of heart, for without it all our good wishes, or even acts of so-called kindness, are but as " sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal." If from the world without, however, we are led to suspect so much deceitfulness and empty show, we may, at least, look upon the family hearth and social circle, and there indulge in a real and genuine reciprocity of good will. Christmas, therefore, is a time especially calculated to teach us the com- forts of one's own fireside,—to draw and knit together the more sacred relationships of life in closer bonds of peace and love. In this respect, "there is no place like home." Here, at least, is a sanctuary amid all the losses and troubles of life. If there be kindness anywhere, it must be found at home ;—if obedience to every wish,—if the thousand delicate attentions which, like the tree cast into the bitter waters of Marah, render life sweet,—if true sympathy, if a feeling of security and independence, if liberty without restraint,— where can these be found except they be found at home ! Home is the citadel in which we are to select our weapons and gird on our armour, which shall fortify us amid thehard- ships and struggles of this mortal life. A happy, united home may be well compared to a perfect lightning conductor, down which the fire of heaven will run innocuously, without endangering the edifice. Home is as a beehive : there may he much toil, much change, but there will always be a honeyed sweetness. Without a home, we may be compared to the cuckoo, which has no nest ; or the butterfly, which has no hive. The one, is it not proverbial for selfishness and folly and the other for levity and worldly-mindedness ? But the domestic hearth, on the contrary, may be likened to the parent hen or insect bee : here is affection and frugal industry Again, home is home, be it never so "lowly ;"—it is not the noblest mansion or the greatest luxuries of food and clothing which constitute a happy home ! Listen to Bobby Burns : " At length his lowly cot appears in view, Beneath the shelter of an aged tree. The expectant ' wee things' toddling, stagger through To meet their dad, with fluttering noise and glee. His clean hearth-stone, his thrifty wife's smile, The lisping infant prattling on his knee, Does all his weary, carking cares beguile, And makes him quite forget his labour and his toil." Join we, then, with hearty chorus, and around the Christmas fireside— "'Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam, Be it ever so humble, there's no place like home; A charm from the sky seems to hallow us there, Which, wherever we rove, is not met with elsewhere. Home! home I sweet home: There's no place like home, there's no place like home ! Liverpool, December, 1855. G. D. A CHESTER TRADESMAN DUPED BY A WELSH HEIRESS! Ix is not often that such an instance of egregious simplicity on one part, and of barefaced impudence on the other, is ex- hibited, as appears in the narrative we are about to relate of a circumstance which occurred in Chester, within the last few days. In fiction, there is nothing in " Gil Blas" that can equal it; and it transcends, in real life, the impudence and successful stratagems of Alice Grey. We will mercifully suppress the name of the unfortunate hero of the tale, and call him Mr. Green ; as the dread laugh of the community would be too great an infliction, in addition to the disappointment and dis- grace which have fallen upon the victim of his own credulity and cunning, while thinking he was stealing a march upon others. About a fortnight ago, a person engaged in business in this city, a widower with four children, while employed at Rhyl in superintending some works of construction, obtained information that there was a young lady there with plenty of money, -and who was very anxious to form an eligible matri- monial connexion. On that hint our townsman spoke, he being equally on the look-out. When flint and steel come into collision, ignition speedily takes place ; and, accordingly, the preliminaries of introduction were soon got through, and it was agreed that he should accompany her lo St. As:111 where she wished to prove the will of her brother, who fell in the Crimea, under which she became possessed of consi- derable property—say £12,000, in land and mortgages. With great dexterity, and with more knowledge of matters and things in general than an innocent Welsh girl is presumed to be endowed, she so timed the trip to the registrar's, at St. Asaph, that she arrived there on a Saturday, just after the Will-office had dosed. As nothing could be done until Monday, and she was eager to get out of the clutches of her guardian, who had destined her to be the bride of an elder suitor whom she detested, she intimated that so great a catch as herself might be under espionage, and she dared not go home for her luggage; so our cit induced her to accompany him to Chester, where he prudently lodged her at the house of a reputable householder of much experience in nautical matters. Mr. Green then asked the advice of his late gover- nor, who, on a pensive review of the circumstances, advised him not to let the prize out of his sight until the knot was firmly tied. On Monday morning, the enamoured swain, in- toxicated with hope and joy, proceeded to obtain a license, but the surrogate to whom he applied mistook the cause and symptoms of his excitement, and suggested that he should come again when he was more collected. As time pressed he repaired incontinently to his solicitor in Newgate-street, who was in London ; but the head-man, with whom he communi- cated, considering that such windfalls are of rare occurrence, and seeing the inconvenience of delay, recommended that the lady should get the ticket, as it was no matter whether " M. or N." took the oath. Thereupon, be went in search of the fair one, who was agreeably employed in spending some score or two of pounds which he had drawn from the Bank for that 'purpose. Silk dresses, shawls,&c., had been bought at a mercer's in Foregate-street, and he traced her to a shoemaker's in East- gate-street, where she had just equipped herself with a pair of boots. It appears that when the fit was adjusted, she had taken a new pair of stockings from her bag, and, to the amazement of Crispin, took off the pair on her feet, and pulled on the new ones. The shoemaker, who is a very modest man, turned aside during ths toilette opriieeduss, aospn telhip; principle we suppose of the poet's mnutim greatly relieved when the bridegroom in then s lilicense, ea arrivedn d to interrupt the colloquy. She soon obtained very readily answered the question of her age, by stating that " she was 21 last Sunday at 2 &clock." Our reverend friend Mr. Marsden spliced the twain the following day, and they proceeded on their wedding tour to Birmingham. En route, the happy husband introduced his bride to his friends at Os- westry, among whom was a relative, a draper. In his shop some conversation passed about the neighbouring families, and Mrs. Green asked about a Rev. Mr. —, not that she knew him personally, but she remembered that "poor dear papa had a mortgage of £lOOO on his land." The Oswestry trades- man, anticipating business, did his best to conciliate goodwill, and made her a present of a waterproof tweed cloak for tra- velling. Up to that time, all had been couleur de rose in the eyes of Mr. Green ; but now he began to think it time to realize the flattering dream, and to replace the sums drawn from his account at the bank. For this purpose it was neces • sary that the trustees of the will should be seen, so, accompa- panied by a Boniface friend, they proceeded to Mold by train, and had a car from there to Ruthin. The husband inquiring from the driver for the residence of the trustees at Llanbedr Gate,was informed that the turn to the right would lead to their house. The lady, 'however, preferred going on to Ruthin, as she wished to see her solicitor before the trustees. They came on to the Cross Foxes Inn, and, on alighting, she left her hus- band, as she said, for a few moments, under the pretence of calling ou a friend, but did not return, nor has he seen, her since. It has been ascertained that the heroine's name is Elizabeth Williams, and that, two years ago, she lived as ser- vant about two miles from Ruthin. She stopped the night after leaving her husband with an old acquaintance, and left early next morning for—no one knows whither. What makes the matter more unpleasant to Mr. Green is, the fact that he had pledged himself to a very amiable person to marry her on New Year's-day, and the match would have been suitable in every respect. Under existing circumstances, his only pros- pect is, that he will one day have an application from some clerk of a board of guardians as will, at all events, apprize him of his wife's whereabouts, accompanied with an intimation of chargeability, and the consequences resulting therefrom.— Chester Chronicle. _ 1 he strategic belle is from Velin•y-wig, near Ruthin, where her parents, very humble persons, reside. As might have been expected, when her purse,, which the bridegroom had filled in anticipation of the £12,000, became light, she re- turned to her liege lord on Monday evening last, who refused to see her. The excitement which this Alice Grey has ex- cited was well supported. A telegraphic message was re- ceived in the course of Monday, by a friend of the duped husband, announcing the unwelcome intelligence that Mrs. Green, or more properly Mrs. Lewis, was en route to Chester for the purpose of demanding the support and pro- tection of her lawful husband. The lady duly arrived in the course of the evening at the Swan, in Foregate-street, the hostlery of the friend of Mr. Green, who went with him to Rnthin to take possession of her supposed wealth,' where her reception, as is usual with persons of distinction, created an immense excitement. Mr. Green, we were informed, was at an inn in the same locality, but indignantly refused an interview with the Welsh heiress, and legally and physically his better half. The lady remained at the Swan during Monday evening, and as she was decked in all the bridal finery purchased at the expense of Mr. Green, sat as if " at home," surrounded by numerous friends and visitors, who arrived in rapid succession, not particularly to pay their re- spects to the wedded lady on her return, but to obtain a view of one who, by her successful duplicity, has surpassed ,the heroine in the Bristol hoax, or even the artful ability dis- played by Alice Grey. Such was the excitement to get a peep at the wily lady, that the Swan was crowded during the night, and the patronage which has been bestowed on that establishment by the Welsh heiress is, we have no doubt, duly appreciated by the landlord—the friend of Mr. Green. The bride, we hear, intends to take forcible possession of the house of her husband and protector, who in return threatens illegal and revengeful steps on the person of his bride. Such is the honeymoon !—Chester Courant.

THE SURRENDER OF KARS. A Hamburg despatch says :—" The Invalide Russe con- tains a despatch from Kars by General Mouravieff. lie reports that he has taken possession of 130 cannon, large stores of ammunition, seven standards, and of prisoners, besides those already reported, 6,000 Turkish regulars and 4,000 redifs." A letter from Trebizond, in La Presse, gives the most har- rowing details of the sufferings endured by the garrison. This letter is dated Nov. 29, and does not contain the news that Kais had actually fallen, though the event was anticipated. The writer says : For seven months—seven whole months—the garrison of Kars has received no supplies. All the convoys announced from Constantinople have either stopped here, or have not proceeded beyond Erzeroum. Hafiz Pasha, our ex-governor,

LATEST NEWS. T H E W A R. THE EASTERN QUESTION. BERLIN, Dec. 23. Austria has communicated to Prussia the preliminaries agreed upon by the Western Powers, and called upon her to advocate their acceptance at St. Petersburg. The Dresden Journal states, that Russia has declared her willingness to concede the neutrality of the Black Sea, under certain conditions compatible with the interests of Europe. THE FALL OF KARS. ST. PETERSBURG, DEC. 21. Under date of the 28th of Nov, Gen. Mouravieff announce that the Russians made at Kars 16,000 prisoners, among whom were 8,000 nizams (Turkish regulars) and 6,000 redifs (irregulars), 12 standards, 130 cannon, and 30,000 muskets. Gen. Mouravieff dispensed with making the English who formed part of the garrison march past him. TRIESTEs Dec. 21. Advices from Constantinople of the 10th, received here state that the remittance to the Ottoman Minister of War of the money realised by the Turkish loan in France and Eng- land had caused a rapid rise in the value of piastres. The capitulation of the town of Kars was not officially known at Constantinople. The Sultan objected to the establishment of a police organ- ized by the consuls of foreign powers. Advices from Smyrna of the 12th of Dec. state that the English squadron under the orders of Rear-Admiral Stewart was preparing to leave for Malta. BERLIN, Dec. 21.

THE RUGELEY MURDER. .The Sun says, a gentleman of high position in the city re- ceived this morning a letter from Stafford, announcing the death of Mr. Palmer. FOREIGN NEWS. The Morning Post's Paris correspondent writes, on Sun- day,—Denmark, it is expected, will very shortly sign a treaty similar to that of Sweden. Four English vessels of war have remained in the Danish waters to look after some American craft known to be laden with war material for Russia. The Pope is urging Tuscany and the Two Sicilies to sub- scribe to a concordat similar to that lately signed by Austria. There is every probability of the Vatican succeeding. The Invalide Russe contains the details of the capitulation of Kars. The Times' Paris correspondent is informed that the English Minister at the Court of Persia has broken off diplo- matic relations with the Shah. THE FUNDS, STOCK, AND SHARE MARKET. The English Funds rose slightly in the forenoon, Consols reaching 89 ; but the later quotations showed diminished firmness. The arrival of specie from America acted favour- ably at the opening, and the subsequent reaction was probably owing to an absence of business. Railways quiet, but, on the whole, showed steadiness.

STORM AT,BALAKLAVA. The Ist 'or December 6'66 upon us with a fierce storm, *bleb foriunately lasted only three hours. It began soon after midnight, and was highest between two and three o'clock. I was absent from the port, and slept in a hut on the hill towards Kamara. My servant had a shake-down in a tent hard by, which fell about his ears ; taking refuge in a second, that also was blown down, and the same accident happened to him in a third. In the valley leading from the Castle Hospital to the position of the 89th Regiment, and the hospital huts of the Highlanders, under the doctors Mackin- non, Rutter, and Pinkerton, the storm raged more furiously than perhaps anywhere else. The wind was about south. The canteen and one of the huts of the 89th, and the hospital hut of the 72nd, were blown down, and every tent around the hospital huts on the opposite acclivity shared the same fate. Cooking utensils, clothes, and all sorts of things, rolled down the hill before the inexorable wind, which also stripped the huts of their felt roofing. In the adjacent commissiarat store (near the Artillery), an immense stock of wood was blown down with a noise resembling a heavy cannonnade. Horses that were stabled in tents were terribly frightened by the unexpected fluttering of the canvas around them, and men rushed forth almost in a state of nudity to avoid the blows of falling tent-poles, and half asleep and half awake saw that another 14th of November (when the Prince was lost) was upon them. The Times' correspondent has some pungent remarks on the carelessness and waste which prevail among the subordinates of the commissariat department. He says, in reference to THE WASTE OF CORN :- The waste of property, as of life, in war, is'prodigious and un- avoidable. I firmly believe that for three feet deep the whole of the quay of Balakiava, near the commissariat landing-place, is a concrete of corn. The sacks are often badly tied, or rotten, and full of holes. It is no uncommon thing to see a Croat or Turkish labourer waddling slowly along with a sack on his back from which the corn is descending in streams against his heels, till he arrives from the ship at the store, and then to behold him depositing the collapsed and flaccid bag on the heap with the greatest gravity and satisfaction at his success in diminishing his load at every step. In the various divisional commissariat depots there is also an enormous loss of grain from similar causes, and from shifting the sacks, and the dis- tribution of the rations. But it seems to be impossible to prevent these losses, which are regarded as incidental to a state of war. In regard to the morality of the army and the evil effects of intoxication, he draws a more encouraging picture than we have been treated with for some time past. Provident habits meet with more encouragement among the soldiers, and severe [measures are adopted to repress the sale of spirits. The result promises well, and there is a general anticipation of a

FRAMPTON'S PILL OF HEALTH.—The mani- fold advantages to the Heads of Families from the posses- sion of a Medicine of known efficacy, that may be resorted to with confidence, and used with success in cases of temporary sick- ness, occurring in families more or less every day, are so obvious to all, that no question can be raised of its importance to every housekeeper in the kingdom. They are an excellent aperient, create appetite, relieve languor, and invigorate the spirits, and if taken atter an indulgence at table, they quickly restore the system to its natural state of repose. " For upwards of nine years (writes Mr. Thomas Province, of Winchmore Hill. Middlesex,) I have experienced the efficacy of this excellent Medicine. I had long previously been afflicted with headache and indigestion; but a friend having induced me to make a trial of Frampton's Pills, I now inform you that a few doses gave me great relief ; and during this long period of time I have taken them in preference to any other medicine; and I have the happiness of saying that I never had a better state of health. which I attribute to Frampton's Pills. I beg further to add, that this medicine is in general use by my family, and we know of nothing to equal it." Persons of a Full Habit, who are subject to Head-ache, Giddi- ness, Drowsiness, and Singing in the Ears, arising from too great a flow of Blood to the Head, should never be without them, as many dangerous symptoms will be entirely carried off by their immediate use. For Females, these Pills are truly excellent, removing all obstructions, the distressing Head-ache so very pre- valent with the sex; Depression of Spirits, Dulness of Sight, Ner- vous Affections, Blotches, Pimples, and Sallowness of the Skin, and give a healthy and juvenile bloom to the complexion. To Mothers they are confidently recommended as the best medicine that can be taken ; and for children of all ages they are unequalled. As a pleasant, safe, and easy Aperient, they unite the' recommendation of a mild operation with the most successful effect. By regulating the dose, according to the age and strength of the patient, they become suitable for every case, in either sex, that can be required.

JACOB TOWNSEND'S AMERICAN SARSAPARILLA.—This is one of the most extraordinary and valuable Medicines in the world. Its superiority over other preparations of like character, made in this country, arises from the mode of manufacture, and the advantage of obtaining and working the root in its green and fresh state. The root, when brought to this country, is dry, vapid, and almost tasteless, its virtues and juices having all evaporated; while it often becomes mouldy, musty, and partially decayed, so that it is quite unfit for use, _ _ ENGLISH TESTIMONY. We give a few of the many communications we have received since we have been in Englund, from those who have experienced the great benefits of using this celebrated medicine. They must have some weight in convincing the public of its great value. 49, Davies-street, Berkeley-square, Sept. 1. 1851. Gentlemen,-1 have much pleasure in testifying, to the nume- rous thanks I have received from various persons who have taken Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, many of whom will be happy to give you testimonials should you require them. I am doubly pleased to be able to speak to the good effects I have seen myself produced by the Sarsaparilla; for I must confess that, although I was not prejudicial, I was rather sceptical as to its virtues, which I would not have believed it possessed, had I not seen it.—l am, your obedient servant, JOHN JAMIESON. Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. FURTHER IMPORTANT TESTIMONY.—OREATCDRE OF PILES. 17, Phelps-street, Walworth, Feb. 22, 1853. Gentlemen,—l was afflicted with the blind Piles, and was under medical treatment for three months, but obtained no relief. Hearing of Old Dr. Jacob Townsend's Sarsaparilla, I obtained some, and, after taking it a short time, the accumulated corrupt matter copiously discharged, and I almost immediately obtained relief. I still continued its use for a time, and not only found relief, but a cure, and am now free from pain. I most sincerely recommend it to all who are similarly affected. WM. HYDE. Messrs. Pomeroy, Andrews, and Co. 8, Ashley-terrace, City-road, London, June 9, 1852. GENTLEMEN,—PIease send me again three quart bottles of Old s)r. Townsend's Sarsaparilla.

THE CONJUGAL _RELATION. Fr is the conjugal relation of which the duties, like the duties of all our other reciprocal affini- ties, however minutely divided and subdivided, are involved in the simple obligation to make those who are the objects of it as happy as it is in our power to make them. In these few simple words, however, what a complication of duties is involved, of duties which it is less easy for the,ethical inquirer to state and define, than for the heart which feels affection to exercise them all with instant readiness. He who loves sincerely the object of any one of those relations which bind us together in amity, and who is wise enough to discern the difference of conferring a momentary gratification which may produce more misery than happiness, and of conferring that which is not merely present hap- piness, but a source of future enjoyment, needs no rule of duty, as far at least as relates to that single individual, for the direction of a conduct of which love itself, unaided by any other guidance, will be a quick and vigilant director. The husband should have, then, as his great object and rule of conduct, the happiness of the wife. Of that happiness, the confidence in his affection is the chief element ; and the proofs of this affection on his part, therefore, constitute his chief duty—an affection that is not lavish of caresses only, as if these were the only demon- strations of love, but of that respect which dis- tinguishes love, as a principle, from that brief passion which assumes, and only assumes, the name ; a respect which consults the judgment as well as the wishes of the object beloved ; which considers her who is worthy of being taken to the heart, as worthy of being admitted to all the counsels of the heart. If there are any delights of which he feels the value as essential to his own happiness ; if his soul be sensible to the charms of literary excellence, and if he consider the improvement of his own understanding, and the cultivation of his own taste, as a duty, and oue of the most delightful duties cf an intel-
