They are chiefly occupied with specu- lations upon the approaching elections in that country, or the change of Ministry in ours, but without deve- loping any views upon either of novelty or interest. The Moniteur of Tuesday contains a report of the Mi- nister of Commerce, and a Royal Ordonnance founded upon it, for effecting certain reductions in the tariff of .Customs duties. By this Ordonnance the prohibition has been removed against importing cotton twist, which is-henceforth to be admitted, paying a duty of from t, seven to eight francs the kilogramme. This change will take place on Sept. 1st. Cashmere shawls manu- factured out of Europe are to be admitted, paying a duty ;<)f20 per cent, on their value. Lace made of cotton is to be admitted, paying the same duty as lace made of thread, namely, 5 per cent. on the value. Iron cables are among the things admitted, paying the same duty 1isiron in bars. Watches, Russia leather, rum, are also among the articles now admitted into France on the payment of duties. Various articles, such as raw and dyed silk, skins, &c. are also to be permitted to be exported on payment of certain duties. The tonnage duties on British vessels is reduced from 3fr. 75c. to _lfr. This is the beginning of a more liberal commer- cial intercouse between the two countries, which we hope to see much extended. By private letters from Spain (inserted in these Jour- nals) ive learn that, on the 27th ult. it was reported in Madrid that the Prussian and Neapolitan Ministers had demanded their passports, and were preparing to de- part. Gen. Rodi's army had returned into Spain after the evacuation of Santarem by Don Miguel. By accounts from Portugal it appears that Don Pedro, in the name of his daughter, summoned the Governor of Madeira, who still held out, to cause the Oath of Allegiance to be taken to her Majesty, by the civil, military, and ecclesiastical employes, within three days, threatening, in case of refusal, that he shall be treated as a rebel, and be excluded for ever from all or any amnesty already given, or may hereafter be given to those who, unfaithful but penitent, may come to ask pardon and protection under the Flag of Legitimacy." Don Pedro has written a letter with his own own hand to the Duke of Terceira, thanking him and the army under his command for the important services which they have rendered his daughter's cause, It is also stated that Don Pedro bears his good fortune with the greatest moderation, and rejoices at the further effusion of blood being spared, and still more so at the safety of his brother, who, had he fallen into the hands of the Duke of Terceira's army instead of Saldanha's, it is ap- prehended, would have fallen a victim to the fury of the soldiers. In consequence of a repetition of earnest representations on the part of the British Minister at Lisbon, Don Pedro has released Sir John Campbell on his parole. The Brussels papers of the 4th announce the ap- proaching departure of the Pussial1 Minister from that capital. The Ernancipationannounces that the Queen is pregnant, which will render unnecessary any dis- cussion in the Chamber about an heir to the throne. Jamaica papers have arrived of April 25, at which time the people were all tranquil, and the new Gover- nor, the Marquis of Sligo, was making a tour round the island. He arrived on the 5th April, and assumed the reins of Government on the 8th. His reception seems to have been cordial on all sides, and numberless con- gratulations were presented to his Lordship. We trust that his government will he, at its close, looked back Upon With the same feelings of approbation as those which these papers still assure us are felt for the go- vernment of the Earl of Mulgrave. A proclamation issued by the new Government contains the following passage:— It affords me the highest gratification to be enabled, immedi- ately on my arrival, to announce the satisfaction of his Majesty's Government at the enactments of the legislature for the effectual Abolition of slavery, and the supplementary details necessary firing the contemplated intermediate state of apprenticeship. By these measures the right of the colony to its share of com- pensation is now rendered indefensible. I do confidently rely that the readiness evinced by his Majesty's Government to give the praiseworthy and judicious measures qf the legisla- ture for the establishment of a social system, absolved for ever from the reproach of slavery, will stimulate the class for whom booii is se tIus gretlt boon is secured, to voluntary and effective industry, and that by their zeal in the discharge of the necessary duties re- quired from them in the probationary state, previous to their en- tire and final enfranchisement, they will evince that gratitude to their masters for the sacrifice made mutually by them and the ■British Government, which the magnitude of the difficulties at- tending the consummation of it entitles them to expect." New York papers to the 14th ult. have arrived, from Whichlt appears that the Senate has at length come to a decision to reject the President's Protest, and has passed a resolution denying his right to issue such a document. The Bank is stated to have refused to allow the examination of its books, by the Committee ap- pointed for that purpose. By the accounts from Canada we are informed that a direct trade is about to be opened between Quebec and China. Two ships for this trade had been already launched at Quebec, and a valuable commerce, it was expected, would be the result. Advices from Newfoundland have been received from *°go to the 20th March, and from St. John's to the 28th April. We regret to find that the intelligence conveyed Is of a melancholy character. The winter had been Uncommonly severe and protracted, and when the let- ters from Fogo were sealed the snow continued to lie e. where to a very considerable depth. The seal nshery had been very unproductive, and, owing to the stormy weather, many of the vessels engaged in it had been lost. The accounts from St. John's bring intelli- S?nce that the Fanny, Locker, master, the property of Messrs. Sleat and Co., of Poole, which sailed from thence on the 20th March, was totally wrecked off the island, near Cape St. Francis, on the 27th April. The whole of the cargo was lost, but the crew were all saved. It appears also that the Astrea, with 240 passengers, emigrants from Ireland to Quebec, was lost on the coast of Newfoundland, and with the exception of the car- penter, the surgeon, and one seaman, all perished!

"Sir—I am directed by Viscount Palmcrston to acquaint you, for the information of the Committee for managing the affairs of Lloyd's that in- telligence has been received at this department, that the Regency acting in Potngal, in the name and on the behalf of Her Most Faithful Majesty Donna Maria II., has resolved to establish immediately an effective blockade of the Island of Madeira and Porto Santo. I am yours, &c. &c., G. SHEK. To theSecretJry of Lloyd's." EARL GREY'S OPINION ON THE REFORM MOVEMENT. —In his reply to the address of Lord Ebrington and other Members of the House of Commons, Earl Grey says-- It is only by the support of honourable and independent men, in conducting the Government on safe and moderate principles, that I can hope to get through the difficulties which are before me. Founded on the principles of Reform, the present Admi- nistration must necessarily look to the correction of all proved abuses. But in pursuing a course of salutary improvement, I feel it indispensable that we shall be allowed to proceed with de- liberation and caution; and above all, that we should not be urged by a constant and active pressure from without, to the adoption of any measures, the necessity of which has not been fully proved, and which are not strictly regulated by a careful attention to the settled institutions of the country, both in Church and State. On no other principle can this or any other Adminis- tration be conducted with advantage or safety." THE ARCHBISHOP OF CANTERBURY'S REPLY TO THE LAY DECLARATION .On Tuesday a numerous depu- tation waited upon the Archbishop of Canterbury, to re- j quest permission to deposit in his Grace's hands the original signatures to the Declaration of the Laity in favour of the Established Church, which was signed by 230,000 male per- sons of mature age. In his reply the Archbishop said— I request you to accept my grateful acknowledgments of your zeal in the cause of the Established Church, at a time when in England and Ireland, and in all our colonial possessions, it stands so much in need of defence against the machinations of enemies avowedly intent on its destruction. Amidst the perils which are multiplying around us, the clergy will derive the greatest encou- ragement to persevering exertion from these public professions of your devoted adherence to the Church, and your implied ap- probation of the character and conduct of its Ministers. While such are the sentiments of the wisest and best among our fellow countrymen, we may look forward with hope and whatever may be the event of the hostility with which we are threatened, we shall find consolation in their sympathy, and in the consciousness of not being altogether utiwor-liv of it. With great pleasure I I take upon me the custody of these important documents they will be deposited among the archives of Lambeth, and will there be preserved as authentic memorials of your filial reverence for the national Church, your attachment to her policy, her faith, and her fomularies and your deep sense of the blessings which, through the mercy of God in our Lord Jesus Christ, are diffused by her agency through the whole of our social system." It is said that her Majesty has abandoned her intention of visiting Germany this season. The Prince and Princess Holienlobe Langenbourg landed on Thursdry morning at the Custom House, where the Duchess of Kent's carriages were in waiting to convey their Serene Highnesses, their children, and suite, to Kensington Palace. The Princess is the only daughter of the Duchess of Kent by her first marriage. Her Serene Highness has not seen her Royal Mother since her marriage, upwards of six years ago, the Duchess of Kent never having visited the Continent to see her relations there since her re- turn to this country, upwards of fifteen years ago, that the birth of the Princess Victoria should take place here. It is reported that the Earl of Radnor is likely to succeed the Duke of Richmond as Post Master General. Mr. Robert Grant, Judge Advocate and M.P. for Finsbury, it is stated will some time hence succeed the Earl of Clare as Governor of Bombay. It is understood that Don Miguel is on board the Stag frigate, and Don Carlos in the Donnegal bound for the Mediterranean. Gen. Macdonnell, Don Miguel's late Com- mander at Santarem, has arrived in town from Falmouth. A Parliamentary Committee has been appointed, to inquire into the means of promoting communication with India by steam. In eighty years the sums expended in poor rates amount to a total nearly reaching that of the national debt. We understand Mr. W. Brougham has given up his Registry of Births, Deaths, and Marriages Bill to the Go- vernment. The bUl will be brought in by Lord J. Russell, Mr. Spring Rice, or Sir John Campbell. The O'Connell tribute of 1833, gives a sum total of thirteen thousand Ji ve hundred and sixteen pounds Major Baring, of the First Life Guards, M.P. for Marl- borough, has retired from the army, and sold out of the regiment. The Lord Chancellor has committed to the Fleet Prison the son of a horse-dealer, aged 19 years, for eloping with Miss Dean, agecl 17, a ward of his Lordship's Court, having a fortune of 5,0001. The Baptist Missionaries who were expelled from Jamaica by the violence of the plantefs—the Rev. Mr. Burchall and the Rev. Mr. Knibb-are about to return to that island, having obtained a grant of 5,0001. from the Go- vernment. They will find a wonderfully altered state of things on their return, from that which existed when they were compelled to fly for their lives,—the fruit of a social and bloodless revolution without paralled in the history of the world. The first duty on Tea imported under the open trade system, was, we are informed, paid on Wednesday at the Custom House. The arrival was but small.-Albion. All the First Lieutenants of Royal Marines, prior to 1815, have been promoted to the rank of Captain and placed on the half-pay, to be called in as vacancies occur. The number of young French Noblemen at present visiting the British Metropolis is greater than has been re- collected for many years. The new organ lately erected in York Minster is of the largest description. One pipe, which speaks the note two octaves below bouble C, is 26 feet high, 5 feet 3 inches" broad, and 3 feet 9 inches deep. It is made of deal, 2 inches thick, and occupies a space little short of 500 cubic feet. A HIT AT THE TAILORS.—An ingenious invention has been exhibited for fixing buttons to clothes without sewing. The plan is, by riveting the button to the cloth, and thus the fastening becomes as durable as the garment. The Repertory of Arts, in describing the invention, says', It is the simplest and strongest button we have seen, and the plan is applicable to all the buttons in common use." THE LATE AFFRAY AT OLDHAM.—At the Salford in- termediate sessions on Monday, 12 men and lads were tried for a riotous attack on Mr, Thompson's premises, when tIght of them were sentenced to terms of imprisonment va- rying from six to eighteen months, and four of them were acquitted. At the same sessions, Daniel Brierly and James Taylor (trades' unionists), pleaded guilty to an indictment Taylor (trades' unionists), pleaded guilty to an indictment charging them with having, together with other persons unknown, entered into a conspiracy for the purpose of ad- ministering unlawful oaths, and were ordered to enter into their own recognizances of 501. each to abide the judgment of the court when called upon. EXTRAORDINARY SUICIDE BY TWO YOUNG WOMEN. —Tuesday afternoon an inquest was held before Mr. Stirling, on the bodies of two young females, Matilda Archer and Mary Ann Perry, nursery maids in the family of a lady re- siding at Hammersmith, whose bodies were found in the river the preceding night. It appeared from the evidence that they must have agreed to die together, for, when their bodies were found, they were fastened to each other by a silk handkerchief tied round their waist. Both appeared to have been engaged in some love affair with men belonging to the police, and to have some slight difference with then- swains. Several documents were produced in the hand- writing of the female Perry, establishing a premeditated de- sign of self-destruction, on the part of both the young women inasmuch as their little property was left severally to their friends and relatives. The Jury returned a verdict of--Felo-de-se on both. POOR AND COUNTY RATES.—A detailed account of the poor rates and county rates in England and Wales, for the year ending March 25, 1833, has been printed, from which it appears that the whole amount levied was 8,739,8811.; of which 6,790,7991. was expended for the relief of the poor, 254,4121. in suits of law, and 1,694,6691. for other purposes. The diminution, as compared to the year before, is, on the whole, four per cent. AGRICULTURAL REPORT FOR MAY.—The weather of this month has been exceedingly favourable to tillage, weed- ing, and every other branch of out-door husbandry, though the growing barley, and most other branches of vegetation, begin to want rain.—The harvesting of the first cut of both meadow and seed hay commenced in our foreign districts about the middle of the month, but will not become general much before a part of next month has expired.—The prices of hops have experienced a considerable advance, owing partially to good ones having become scarce, and partially perhaps, in some degree, to rumours, but little credited, of the insect having committed serious ravages on the growing bine store beasts, store sheep, and good horses have been fully supporting, in some instances a little exceeding, their April currency; but with every other description of both live and dead farm produce, trade has been exceedingly dull. Fat stock, hay, straw, poultry, and dairy produce, at barley stationary, corn and British wool at drooping prices.

Containing a Series of Choice Reading's in Popular Science and Natural History; together with Retrospective Essays, Conversations., Literary Reminiscences, &c. ° OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. "This volume contains 450 pages of closely printed matter. It is de- dicated to Lord Brougham, and deserves the patronage of every friend of elementary learning, and of every promoter of the diffusion of useful knowledge. It will afford much instruction and amusement to every young gentleman, and many an old one too. The numerous subjects which occupy its pages are treated in a manner calculated to excite a love of the study of nature, of science, and of the arts. Geology and Geo- graphy—Astronomy and Natural History, in ail its branches,—Botauy and Mineralogy, are all discussed in a way that affords an interminable fund of amusement anil instruction. If any one is desirous of offering a useful and an instrnctive present to a young gentleman, let it be The Young Gentleman's Booh."—Cambridge Quarterly Review, January, 1834. A great quantity of pleasant, instructive, and entertaining reading is selected under the above title, and arranged in separate divisions, devoted I to popular science, natural history, and didactic and moral pieces. The volume, which is neatly printed and got up, is interspersed with many elegant poetical extracts, connected with the subject of this particular section. The Young Gentleman's Booh is adapted to form a good class- book for young people, or select scrap-reading for persons of any age Tait's Edinburgh Magazine, January, 1834. This is one of the most skilfully arranged and least exceptionable compilations we have ever seen. It contains an immense mass of infor- mation upon almost every topic useful or interesting, to voung or old and though published more especially for the former, it may be consulted with pleasure by the latter. In general the authorities are given, and they are the best. The several divisions embrace a vast variety of sub- jects, of which explanations and illustrative anecdotes are given—such as Geology, Ornithology, Botany, Logic, Rhetoric, &c. &c. The volume is, moreover, I got up' with exceeding taste, and is just such a present as one would desire to make to a young friend, or one whose claim may be nearer and dearer."—New Monthly, February, 1834. 1 his is a volume on which we can conscientiously bestow unqualified approbation. It embraces a large range of interesting subjects in science and art, and we know not of a more fit book to be placed into the hands of the young as a new year's present. It is written too, in an easy style, well suited to the purpose, and it altogether bears out fully the title which it assnmes.Metropolitan, February, 1834.. A seasonable volume this, the contentsof which fully realize the pro- mise of the title-page- A variety of information, which as the pet phrase now goes, is both useful and entertaining, is arranged under distinct heads, and forms a thick well ordered volume of the essence of many authors, in arts, science, )iterature,&c. At a period of the year when gifts, whether as the proof of affection, or the reward of study, are so common, we know of few presents which could be better chosen for the object indicated than The Young Gentleman's Book."—The Monthly i nagizine, January, 1834. The Young Gentleman's Book professes to be a series of choice read- ings in popular science, &c. but it, in reality, goes far beyond its preten- sions. No department of science, no branch of Natural History, but what is illustrated and rendered pleasingly familiar. Nor does it stop here; it abounds in literary anecdote of a nature quite different from the hacknied stories that are told of Johnson, and the original nothingness impertinently fathered by bookmakers on Swift; and it is, moreover, in- terspersed with poetry, in which a sound judgment has employed itself in the task of selecting, so that nothing appears but what amuses, and nothing amuses but what must instruct."—Morning Chronicle. = A good selection of prose and poetical extracts, appropriately dedi- cated to the Schoolmaster at Home'—Lord Brougham. There is much to instruct, and a good deal to amuse.Globe.. The Young Gentleman's Book.-The charm of the title is irresistible to the tyro. He opens it, and-wha: a contents! An unique combination of all that is elegant in literature and instructhe in science, sufficiently amusing not to be dull, and erudite enough to avoid frivolity. The boy reads and is charmed, without exactly comprehending the reason why he is so; he le-reads, and becomes wise; and at length lays down the book with more real knowledge in his head than would have served half the loung Kosciuses' and I precocious geniuses' of twenty years ago for their stock in trade all their lifetime. Yet all this fund of useful intelli- gence is to be had for a sum scarcely exceeding the cost of his grand- father's primer. Need we then wonder at the moral change in the aspect of affairs."—Sunday Herald. To no writer arc the rising generation of this country under'decDer obligations than to him who has furnished the present volume. Though he conceals his name Ins p,eceS betray the ready tact and perspicuity" n- digenons to piactised and accomplished writers alone. With that diffi- dence, too, only found united with real talent, he has not entirely relied on his individual exertions, but has taxed a host of othei-s-iie least of whom is certainly not the Lord Chancellor.United Kingdom. The intrinsic merits of The Young Gentleman's Book, devoid of the extraneous circumstance of the Chancellor's powerful influence, amply justity the public taste, in appreciating this volume as it deserves. It has alleady become a standard work, and certainly none more deservedly so A new and (if possible) improved edition is now before the public. No eaclicis, whether in public academies, or presiding over the more limited circle ol domestic establishments, should neglect to procure it for their pupus. It will lighten many a dull hour of dogmatising; spare the teacher an incalculable portion of irritability, and the taught of world of woe, the result-equally desired by each-will be attained to the satisfaction of Dota viz. a good education, at the smallest possible expenditure of both tune or patience.Lee(ls Mercury. The Young Gentleman's pooh cannot be appreciated beyond its de- serts. If a disinterested opinion can tend to promote a greater estimatiou of its manifold merits than has already been universally accorded to it we venture to say that every man interested in the cultivation of youthful intellect is imperatively bound to see that it forms a prominent part of the reading of those placed under .his care.Plymoulh Herald. Even at this eleventh hour, we owe it to such of our readers as are interested,in the education of youth (and who is not?), and have not pro- cured The Young Gentleman's Book, to observe, that it is a work replete with every thing indispensable in the formation of the basis of a good education. It is a melange of original and selected matter, at once the- most instructive and amusing that can well be conceived. What is bar. rowed is admirable, and what is original no less so.Sherborne Journal. The volume which has struck the most decided blow in the cause of this most desirable of reforms is, unquestionably, The Young Gentleman's Book. Its talent made it at once important, and ensured it a reception, wane the name of Lord Brougham (to whom it is dedicated, and whose contributions enrich its pages) afforded it an instantaneous passport ito celebrity ."—Bury Post. v The Young Gentleman's Booh is evidently the result of the labours of a patient and investigating spirit, aided bv a judgment at once discrimi- s, nating and profound: the latter of the effusions, a poetically vivid imagi- nation, whose flights are ever chastened to the sober realities of life by a mind whose native sphere is where birds dare not build, nor insect wing flit o'er the herbless granite,' but which is nevertheless competent to adapt itself to the region of its present sojournment.Essex Independent. I he i oung Gentleman's Booh is an epitome of estimable, and in these days, indispensable information a compendium of the utile et dulce in literature, science, biography, and almost every department of miscel- laneous knowledge. It is an elegant manual of most varied intelligence, economic in price as it is invaluable in intrinsic worth.—Salovian Journal. 1 The Young Gentleman's Book is learned without being pedantic- lively not frivolous profound yet perspicuous; terse yet comprehensive- refined but not fastidious; elaborate but withal simple; elegant yet not or- nate; and on the whole, a rare assemblage of what is apparentlyantithelical; but what are in reality but compotent parts of a perfect whole. It is de-' signed The Young Gentleman's Book; but there are none, however aged whom it is not calculated to make a wiser and a better man.—^ Dumfries Courier. Among other candidates for fame in this field of useful labour, is the author, among other admirable works, of The Young Gentleman's Book. Our observations have taken their tone, nut so much from the circum- stance that his book is dedicated to that great man, the Chancellor, as that it is appropriately dedicated to him, being a work upon nsefnl knowledge. Facts, in natural history, comprising all its entertaining branches; anecdotes of an useful tendency connected with literary men, and literaiy matter; scraps of poetry interspersed but so well chosen) that they win the heart while they instruct the mind all entitle the author to the greatest praise, and his clever production to the most ex- tended patronage."—York Herald.

Bright was the boot—its surface fair, In lustre nothing lacking I never saw one half so clear, Except by WARREN'S Blacking. (WARREN that name shall last as long As beaux and belles shall dash on, Immortaliz'd in every song That chaunts the praise of fashion. For, oh without his Blacking, all Attempts we may abolish To raise upon our Boots at all The least of Jet or polish.)
