S?.-I have the pleasure of forwarding you the par- ??'ulars of a case in which BLAIR S GOUT and ?H?UMATIC PILLS have proved eminently suc- eSsful ? ? Yong woman, named Mary Wain, accompanied by  Parents, who reside at Watnall, near this town, "led upon me on Saturday last, being desirous of ? ?U]g her case known for the benefit of the public. ? It appears that Mary Wain had for some years past o en a great sufferer from Rheumatism, but that in Qc? tober last she was more than ordinarily afflicted, so Wfch so that her father fetched her from her place of ^'00' in order that she might have the attention of HE R MOTHER at home at that time-to make use of the other's description, she could not lift her hand to her t??th, or her foot the height of sixpence from the floor." ]4a heard of Blair's Pills, the father purchased a t? ?mv shop about the second week in October; the JLLS took immediate effect, for I am assured by the parelits and the girl herself, that on the following day si E could not only lift her hand up to feed herself, but e could also move about on crutches. Since that time j « has had five more boxes of the Pills, and, ? I may J?m Se from appearances, is as well as she ever was in her ?' and has been so for some months past. I am, Sir, yours truly, ?o ?r. Prout, 229, Strand. RICHARD ALLE?.

HOWARD and THOMAS continue to supply the Loss of Teeth without springs or wires upon their new system of SELF-ADHESION, which has procured them such uni- versal approbation, and is recommended by numerous Physicians and Surgeons as being the most ingenious system of supplying artificial teeth hitherto invented. They adapt themselves over the most tender gums, or remaining stumps without causing the least pain, rendering the operation of extracting quite unnecessary. They are so fixed as to fasten any loose teeth where the gums have shrunk from the use of calomel or other causes. They also beg to invite those not liking to undergo any painful operation, as practised by most members of the profession, to inspect their painless yet effective system and in order that their improvements may be within the reach of the most economical, they will con- tinue the same moderate charges. Messrs. HO WARD and THOMAS, Stit-geoit Den- tists, 64, Berners-street, Oxford-street, London. At homfrom ten till four. Those interested in the subject will find this statement of their superiority over all others, to be entirely and scru- pulously correct.. Their new method of fixing Artificial Teeth has obtained the approbation and recommendation of the following eminent Phvsicians and Surgeons :-Sir James Clark, Bart, Physician to her Majesty; Dr. Locock, Ph s-sician Accoucheur to "her Majesty Dr. Ferguson, Physician Accoucheur to her Majesty; Dr. 'Bright, Physician Extraordinary to her Ma- jesty Sir B.

H. the Duchess of Kent; Dr. Nlerriman, Bart., M.D.; Dr. Paris; Sir M. Tierney, Bart., M. D. Dr. James Johnson; Dr. Chambers; Dr. Conquest, and numerous other Members of the Medical Profession. CAUTION. —Unprincipled individuals prepare the most spurious compounds under the same names; they copy the labels, bills, advertisements and testimonials of the original Thomas's Succedaneum. It is therefore highly necessary to see that the words Howard & Thomas are on the wrap- per of each article. All others are fraudulent imitations. ON THE SECRET INFIRMITIES OF YOUTH AND MATURITY.

REVIEWS OF THE WORK. The author of this singular and talented work is a legally qualified medical man, who has evidently had considerable experience in the treatment of the various disorders, arising from the follies and frailties of early indiscretion. The Engravings are an invaluable addition, by demonstrating the consequences of excesses, which must act as a salutary warning to youth and maturity, and by its perusal, many questions may be satisfactorily replied to, that admit of no appeal, even to the most confidential friend."—IRON TIMBS. This is decidedly the most scientific and yet most intelligible work of the kind, we have ever yet perused; and the engravings and explanations which accompany it, present amoral and highly instructive lesson, by delineating the evil effects of youthful folly and excess. The subject is altogether treated in a very superior manner, AND THE AUTHOll BKING A LEGALLY QUALIFIED MEDICAL MAN, we recommend his work to public notice with the utmost confidence."—RAILWAY BRLL. Unquestionablv this is a most extraordinary and skilful work, and ought to be extensively circulated; for it is quite evident that there are peculiar habits acquired at public schools and private seminaries, which are totally unknown and concealed from the conductors of those establishments, and which cannot be too strongly reprobated and condemn- ed. The engravings that accompany the work aro clear and explanatory and being written by a duly qalified medical practitioner, will doubtless be the means of saving many a youth, as well as those of maturer age, from the various evil consequences resulting from indiscretions."—MAGNET.

We regard the work before us, The SILENT FRIEND, as a work embracing most clear and practical views of a series of complaints hitherto little understood, and passed over by the majority of the Medical profession, for what reason we are at a loss to know. We must however confess that a perusal of this work has left such a favourable impression on our minds, that we not only recommend, but cordially wish everv one who is the victim of past folly, or suffering from indiscretion, to profit by the advice contained in its pages. A,e and Argus. ?The Authors of THE SiLENTFME?D seem to be thoroughly conversant with the treatment of a class of complaints which are, we fear, too prevalent in the present day. The per- spicuous ,t3?le in which this book is written, and the va- luable hints it conveys to those who are apprehensive of entering the marriage state, cannot fail to recommend it to a careful perusal. —ERA.

THE truly wonderful powers of this remedy have called forth Testimonials from all ranks of society, in all quarters of the world. The following have just been received More Cures in TREDEGAR. From Mr. J. P. Williams, Chemist, Church-st., Tredegar. December 23rd, 1844. Gentlemen-A number of my friends have experienced great benefit through taking Locock's Wafers. Please to send me one dozen boxes by post, as some are waiting for them. One friend, named Amy Calamore, subject to asthma, had a box last week, and has already received great benefit from them, although she did not take the whole, as she divided the box among some of her neighbours. Every one speaks highly of them, and they are taken by some of the first families in the town. Yours obediently, —————— J. P. WILLIAMS. IMPORTANT TESTIMONIAL. From Mr. Owen Thomas, Wesleyan Minister, Holyhead. Oct. 9, 1845. Dear Sir,—Dr. Locock's Wafers do a great deal of good to my voice. I got a bad cold from a damp bed thirty-five years ago, and my voice was very bad ever since; being great pain to me when preaching and sing- ing—and I am very fond of singing. I used many different medicines, and some of them do good for a lit- tle time but Dr. Locock's is the best of all-it clears my voice and stops the coughing instantly. I have ne- ver found anything yet to compare with them. I have been thirty-three years a Wesleyan preacher, and all the Wesleyan Methodists in the principality know me, twenty years of which I have lived in Holy- head, and I am known personally to all the first men of that body, many of whom have admired the effects of the Wafers in clearing the voice, and stopping the cough; they never got such a medicine before. My wife, ever since Christmas, has been very well, after taking two boxes. I am a witness of their power to stop a frightful fit of coughing, in an instant. I, as a Wesleyan preacher, call upon all preachers and singers of every denomination, to take these Wafers for improving the voice, and curing Coughs. You may publish my testimonial for the excellent Wafers, if you wish. "I am, yours truly, OWEN THOMAS." CURES OF CONSUMPTION. December oth, 1845. Gentlemen,-Your Wafers I can speak of myself, with the greatest confidence, having recommended them in many cases of pulmonary consumption, and they have always afforded relief when everything else has failed, and the patients having been surfeited with medicine, are delighted to meet with so efficient a remedy having such an agreeable taste, &c. Signed, JNO. MAWSON, Surgeon. 13, Mosley-street, Newcastle-on-Tyne. IMPORTANT TO ALL WHO SING. From S. PEARSALL, Esq., of her Majesty's Concerts, and Vicar choral of jLichficld Cathedral. Lichfield, July 10th, 1845. Gentlemen,—A lady of distinction having pointed out to me the qualities of Dr. Locock's Wafers, I was in- duced to make a trial of a box, and from this trial I am happy to give my testimonial in their favour-I find by allowing a few of the wafers (taken in the course of the day) to gradually dissolve in the mouth, my voice be- comes bright and clear, and the tone full and distinct. They are decidedly the most efficacious of any I have ever used. Signed, SAMUEL PEARSALL.

Extract of a Letter from the Earl of Aldborough, dated Villa Messina, Leghorn, 21st Feb, 1845. TO PROFESSOR HOLLOWAY. SIR,- Various circumstances prevented the possibility of my thanking you before this time for your politeness in sending me your Pills as you did. I now take this opportunity of sending you an order for the amount, and at the same time, to add that your Pills have effected a cure of a disorder in my Liver and Stomach, which all the most eminent of the Faculty at home, and all over the Continent, had not been able to effect; nay! not even the waters of Carlsbad and Marienbad. I wish to have another Box and a Pot of the Ointment, in case any of my family should ever require either. Your most obliged and obedient servant, Signed, ALDBOROUGH. A wonderful Cure of Dropsy of Five Years' standing. Copy of.. Letter from Mr. Thomas Taylor Chemist, Stockton, Durham, 17th April, 184o. TO YR0FES80R HOLLOWAY. Siit,-I think it my duty to inform you that Mrs. Clough, wife of Mr. John Clough, a respectable farmer of Acklam, within four miles of this place, had been suffering from Dropsy for five years, and had had the best medical advice without receiving any relief. Hearing of your Pills and Ointment, she used them with such surprising benefit that, in fact, she has now given them up being so well, and quite able to attend to her house- hold duties as formerly, which she never expected to do again. I had almost forgotten to state that she was given up by the Faculty as incurable. When she used to get up in the morning it was impossible to discover a feature in her face, being in such a fearful state. This cure is entirely by the use of your medicines. I am, Sir, yours, &c. &c., (Signed) THOMAS TAYLOR. A Cure of Indigestion and Constipation of the Bowels. Copy of a Letter from G. R. Wythen Baxter, Esq., Author of the Book of the Bastiles," &c. &c.

SIR,-I consider it my duty to inform you that your Pills, a few boxes of which I purchased at Mr. Moore's, Druggist, of Newtown, have cured me of constant indi- gestion and constipation of the bowels, which application to literary pursuits had long entailed upon me. I should strongly recommend Authors, and studiously-disposed persons generally, to use your valuable Pills. You have my permission to publish this note, if you wish to do so.

jTHE INSURRECTION IN POLAND.…
THE INSURRECTION IN POLAND. ) The events passing in Poland appear to have assumed a serious character, which is not disguised by the principal organs either of the Prussian or Austrian Governments. The city of Cracow, the capital of Poland under its former kings, the descendants of the Jagellons, had, according to those journals, for four days been the seat of a new Government, entitling itself the Pro- visional Government of the Polish Nation." It was on the 22d ult., the day on which the Austrian troops and the Senate evacuated the town, that the new power was constituted and installed itself in the old mansion known by the name of Krystofory, and with which the dearest associations of the Poles of the period in which the Duchy of Warsaw existed are connected. Prince Joseph Poniatowski resided there in 1809, during the Polish campaign against Austria. The new Government, immediately upon its instalment, published a manifesto to the Polish nation, in which it dwells upon the sufferings of the Poles, and calls upon the people to rise en masse throughout the whole of ancient Poland. On the 23rd it issued a decree forbidding, under pain of death, all attempts against private and public property, and declaring, at the same time, that any persons who should establish political clubs, or associations, without being authorized by the Government to do so, should be regarded as traitors to their country. The following are the documents above alluded to:— MANIFESTO. To the Polish Nation—Poles,the hour of insurrection has struck. The whole of mutilated Poland rises and becomes great. Already have our brothers of the Grand Duchy of Posen, Russian Poland, and Lithuania risen, and are fighting in Russia against the enemy. They arc fighting for their most sacred rights, of which they have been deprived by force and fraud. The flower of our youth are languishing in dungeons. Our ancestors whose counsels sustained us, are treated with contempt. The clergy are deprived of all respect; in a word, all who have resolved to live or die for Poland have been de- stroyed or immured in prison, or are in danger of being so at every instant. The groans of the millions of our brothers who perished under the knout or in subterranean cells have reached our hearts, which are profoundly afflicted. We have been robbed of our glory, and our language and the religion of our fathers have been for- bidden to us. Insurmountable barriers have been opposed to the amelioration of our social condition, brother has been armed against brother, and the most honourable men of the country have been calumniated and perse- cuted. Another step, and there would be no more Poles. Our grand-children would curse our memory for having left the finest part of the earth a desert and a ruin for having allowed chains to be put upon our warlike nation and forced it to profess a strange worship, to speak a fo- reign language. The ashes of our martyred fathers, the rights of our nation, call to us from the tomb to avenge them; the infant at the breast calls upon us to preserve the country that God has confided to us. The free na- tions of the entire world invite us to resist the destruction of our nationality. God himself gives us this invitation. God, who will one day demand from us an account of our conduct. We are 20,000,000. Let us rise as one man, and no violence can crush our power. We shall enjoy a liberty which has never been on earth. Let us endeavour to obtain it, and a community in which every man shall enjoy his share of the fruits of the earth according to his merit and his capacity. Let there be no more privileges. Let each Pole find full guarantee for himself, his wife, and his children and let him who is inferior by birth, mind, or body, find without humiliation the infallible assistance of the entire community, which will have the absolute property in land now possessed by a few. All forced labour and other burdens cease, and those who shall devote themselves in arms to the cause of their country shall receive a property in land as an indemnity. Poles from this moment we acknowledge no distinctions. Let us henceforward be the sons of one mother, Justice —of one father, God, who is in heaven. Let us invoke his support. He will bless our arms and give us victory but for Him to do this, we must not dishonour ourselves. Let us not treat with despotism those who are confided to us, let us not massacre those who are disarmed, and the foreigners who do not think with us; we do not struggle against nations, but against our oppressors. In sign of our union, let us make the following oath :—' I swear to serve Poland, my country, with my counsel, my words, and my acts. I swear to sacrifice to her all my opinions, my life, and my money. I swear absolute obe- dience to the National Government which has been es- tablished in Cracow, the 22nd of this month, at 8 o'clock in the evening, in the house of Krzystofoarni, and to all the authorities instituted by the Government, as God may stand me in need.' This manifesto shall be pub- lished in all the journals of the Government, and in the supplementary sheets sent throughout Poland, and shall he proclaimed from the pulpits of all the churches, and stuck up in all public places. Dated Cracow, Feb. 22, 1846, and signed Louis Gorzkowsky." IC DECREE. I "The Government of the revolution being absolute for the whole of Poland, and responsible to the nation, whoever is charged by the Govmiment or by one of its authorities to exercise any office, command, or temporary functions, must exercise them on pain of death. Any person, capable of bearing arms, who does not within 21 hours after the proclamation of the insurrection, place himself under the orders of the local authorities, shall be tried as a deserter by a court-martial. Pillage and vio- lence, however merited, extortion, espionage, abstraction of the public money, or its application otherwise than as ordered by the Government, shall be punished with death. Whoever shall, without the authority of the Government, establish clubs or associations, shall be regarded as a all, in its traitor to his country. Every commune shall, in its circle, establish as many signals of alarm as may be ne- cessary for placing itself in communication with the neighbouring communes. The signals are two pillars or poles bound with straw and covered with pitch. The destruction of a pillar, or any obstacle to its being lighted up shall be punished with death. The national colour is white and purple, a white eagle on a purple ground, with its wings extended and the head turned to the right, in its right foot a crown of oak and in its left a crown of laurels. This eagle shall be the seal of all the tribunals and authorities of the country.—Dated Cracow, 23d Feb., 1846, and signed Louis Gorzkowsky, Jantyssowsky, and Alexander Grzegorzewsky.—Charles Grzegorzewsky, se- cretary to the Government. A private letter which we have just received, states that further decrees had been issued on the 24th, all of which were signed by Count Potulicki, one of the wealthiest and most influential citizens of Poland. The Provisional Government had resorted to the most urgent measures of defence, for considerable forces were said to be on the march from Austria, Prussia, and Russia, to crush the insurrection before it had time to spread. The Austrian colonel, Hanfeldt, who formerly commanded the militia of the Republic, composed of 400 men, for the most part chosen from the Austrian regiments, had, together with the whole of his troop, gone over to the insurgents. Several desertions were said to have taken place in the regiments of Mazachelli i and Bertoletti, and the Austrian Government had, in consequence, ordered them from Gallicia. It was even said that an order had been issued to disband them. The republic of Cracow, which is about to become the theatre of such an unequal struggle, and which must naturally be attended with the most painful results for heroic and unfortunate Poland, is about 65 miles long, by 22 miles broad with a population of 115,000 souls. The town of Cracow itself, stripped of its former splen- dour, contains 35,000 inhabitants, including Jews and foreigners. Situated in the midst of an extensive plain, it is open to attack on all sides, and presents no means of defence. It is true there is an old castle upon Mount Warvel, but it is in such a ruinous condition as to be almost useless. The Augslurgh Gazette of the 2d instant, publishes a letter from the frontiers of Galicia of the 25th ult., an- nouncing that, on the 23d and 24th, the insurgents of Cracow had crossed the Vistula, in the direction of Vielicza, and that General Colin, being menaced by the movement on his right, had thought proper to fall back upon Moghilam and Wadowicze. The reinforcements he expected from Moravia and Silesia would, it was feared, be intercepted by the insurgents. A letter from Breslau of the 28th positively states that the latter attacked Podgorze on the 23d, drove the aristocracy out of the town, and followed them as far as Wadowicze. The entire of the western part of Galicia was then in actual revolt. No accounts had reached from the eastern districts. The insurgents had, on the other hand, penetrated into the kingdom of Poland, without experiencing any serious resistance. A report prevailed that a revolt had broken out at Lemberg. It was reported that in Russian Poland several engagements had already taken place between the troops and the insurgents and that at Wilna, rounds of grape shot had been fired against the people. The soldiers were ordered to give no quarter. THE PORTSMOUTH DCEL.-The trial of Lieut. Pym of the Royal Marines, for aiding the murder of Lieut. Seton of the same corps,—the latter having been killed in a duel, took place on Friday at the Winches- ter assizes. The verdict, communicated to the London papers by the Electric Telegraph at a late hour on Saturday night, was the acquittal of Mr. Pym. RAILWAY ACCIDENT .-A frightfully fatal accident occurred in France on Monday afternoon last, on the Lyons Railway. An engine, it appears, got out of order, and brought the train to which it was attached to a full stop. Despatches were sent off for assistance, and a locomotive was forwarded from Lyons, which, by some mismanagement, ran into the train, killing eight and mutilating and wounding fourteen of the unhappy passengers. IIOKRIBLE DisEisF.-A physician of Vienna has discovered a new and terrible disease, to which the workmen in lucifer-match manufactories alone are exposed. It commences with pains in the teeth and cheek bones, and breaking out openly on the removal of a tooth, when it inflames the periosteum of the jaw- bones, gangrenes, and produces an injurious caries, causing consumption, and thus painfully putting an end to the sufferer's life. The cause of the disease is supposed to be the arsenic in the phosphorus.
" THE COUNTRY PARTY."
THE COUNTRY PARTY." [From the Atlas.] Sifch is the new title the dissentient Conservatives have bestowed upon themselves. And though poetic authority teaches us that there is nothing in a name, they could have hardly dubbed themselves by a desig- nation of worse repute. For in times past the Country Party" was just as wrong in its policy, and as perverse in its measures, as it now is. In Queen Anne's reign it took to enacting Test Acts, persecuting dissenters, and supporting a Ministry that brought one of the most glorious wars into which this country was ever forced to a most ingloriqus conclusion. In the times of the two first Georges it resolutely opposed the Hanoverian succession, treasonably upheld Jacobitism, and twice fostered rebellions it had not courage to join. And if during the long reign of George III. it was found hand in glove with the Court, the alliance cost England the North American colonies, and precipitated, if it did not originate, the war with Revolutionary France; thereby nipping in their bud the mighty reforms (com- mercial and representative, Irish and Indian) contem- plated by Mr. Pitt, and converting a profound statesman into an arbitrary minister. So, thus reputed, the name is at the party's service. Much good may it do them. It is, in all probability, the only symbol of a party they are likely to exhibit. The strength of this party, regarded as a permanent opposition to Sir R. Peel, is not to be estimated by the numbers it has lately divided. For there can be no greater mistake than to suppose that the phalanx was to a man earnest and sincere in their hostility to the Government measures. On the contrary there were, it is notorious, many members opposing these measures, who would, had they been perfectly free agents, or uncontrolled by election engagements or prospects, have gladly supported Sir Robert and they, on the first opportunity, will fall into their old ranks. Others who conscientiously refused to follow the Premier in his pre- sent courses-such as Sir T. Ackland and Mr. Matthew Bell-have too many points of agreement with him in his general policy, and too great a personal regard for him, to remain in general opposition to Sir Robert and they too will soon fall into the places they formerly occupied as his supporters. Another section will cease to be opponents so soon as they have recovered their temper. While not a few will soon grow ashamed of a Country Party" in which Mr. Ferrand's vulgarity of mind and manner will be uppermost. And lastly, the fear of Lord John Russell will, when it is at last dis- covered that though a Country Party" may exist, a Country Administration" cannot be formed, induce many to bear the ills they have rather than fly to others they know not of." So that a few months over, we may expect to seethe "Country Party" grow small by degrees and beautifully less j" until Colonel Sibthorp be left as all forlorn as the Maid who milked the Cow with the crumpled horn." The press of the Country Party" has commenced its opposition to the Premier in far too unmeasured and coarse a strain to give the party much assistance. People cannot forget that the very writers who now so furiously and intemperately assail Sir Robert, were not a few months ago playing, far more grotesquely and funnily, the part of Sancho Panza to the Minister, and were just as roundly abusing every one who differed from Sir Robert as they are now blackguarding Sir Robert himself. Nor can these writers persuade sober- minded idea-less persons that in Lord George Bentinck we have another Chatham, or that Mr. Stafford O'Brien has superseded Mr. John Hardy, M.P., as the British Demosthenes. No; the Country Party" is not destined to last long still less to achieve greatness It may for a season be mischievous in its irritation but its best-aimed blows will ultimately rebound on itself; and it will sink again into Conservatism and Peelism because of its own inhe- rent weakness. Mr. Miles, Mr. George Rankes, Mr. Finch, and Mr. Stafford O'Brien are all amiable men; but as politicians they can't walk alone and if ever they attempt to get along by depending on each other, they will be all down together. But, after all, the great cause of the early dissolution of the Country Party" will be the discovery that their fears were unnecessary; that fair rents and free ports are compatible with each other that equable and moderate prices of grain are better for farmers than sudden and great fluctuations and that a little dependence on fo- reign countries for food has made England a happier and more contented, because a more prosperous country. Rely upon it, when the gentlemen of England do find out their present mistake, they will have the manliness to acknowledge it; and that done, where will be the Country Party ?"

ROYAL CONDESCENSION.—Her Majesty the Queen most graciously wrote a letter of condolence to Com- mander Crispin, of the Royal Yacht V ictoria and Albert, on the melancholy occasion of Mrs. Crispin's demise; and her Majesty and Prince Albert intimated to him, that it is their wish to be sponsors to his two motherless female infants, and that one be christened Victoria and the other Albertine. A Portuguese child, with three legs, is being exhi- bited in London. The third leg descends from the lower part of the back, and has the rudiments of 10 toes. The Manchester Guardian calculates that the League Quarter of a Million Fund already exceeds £180,000. HOBSON'S CHOICE.—Recently, a Mr. Dickenson was unanimously elected master of the Thwaites school, near Lancaster, there being only one elector and one candidate. SAVINGS' BANKS.—The total amount deposited in all savings' banks is L27,693,000, belonging to 990,543 in- dividuals an instance of industry, forethought, and wealth, which the world cannot parallel. Of this sum, Lancashire contributes £1,980,000, from 65,402 deposi- tors, being an average of E30 to each depositor. APPOINTMENT EXTRAORDINARY.—We congratulate the government upon their having adopted Lord Mor- peth's suggestion to infuse, in imitation of our transat- lantic brethren, a little more of the democratic principle into our institutions. Southampton has been chosen as the field for the first display of the new-born love of democracy, and it is the Iron Duke that we are indebted to for the great fact. His Grace, as Lord-lieutenant of Hampshire, has just been pleased (we hear) to confer the dignity of deputy-lieutenant upon two worthy tradesmen of our borough—Mr. Lobb (citizen and haberdasher), our present Mayor, and Mr. Le Feuvre, packet-agent, &c. We understand that the appoint- ment, gratifying as it is to the gentlemen named and their friends, is by no means pleasing to the majority of their confreres, who look upon these honours as the exclusive privilege of the landed gentry. -ilampvh ire Independent. COMPENSATION FOR THE CORS LAWS.—Sir Grahame Montgomery, Bart., has intimated to his numerous tenantry in Peeblesshire that although he feels confident that Sir Robert Peel's measure, when once fairly carried into effect, will produce a result highly beneficial to society at large, still, with an anxious wish to satisfy the minds of his tenantry, he begs to assure them should any reduction take place on farm produce in consequence of these measures, a reduction will be made upon their rents .—Edinburgh Witness. TURN-OUT IN MANCHESTER.—On Monday morning there was a general turn-out of the joiners and car- penters employed in this town. The number who left their employment was about 3000. The object sought by the men was an advance of wages from 26s. to 29s. per week. The men employed at 16 establishments, about 1500 in number, returned in the course of the morning to their work, their employers having complied with their demand. Several hundreds of the bricklayers also turned out the same day, and have not yet returned to their work. Loss OF THE GREAT LIVERPOOL. -Intelligence reached town on Saturday of the total loss of the Great Liverpool steamer, which took place on the 24th of Fe- bruary, at 4 in the morning, off Cape Finisterre, by getting on shoals. The catastrophe appears to have been wholly the result of accident. It is said that no blame whatever attaches to Captain M'Leod, the commander. Only three lives were lost, although it is stated that there were about 150 souls on board. Mrs. Archer, from Bombay, a Miss Morris, aged 7, and an Indian female servant, were the three that perished by the swamping of the boat, while attempting to escape. 79 of the passengers and 21 of the crew have arrived at Southampton by the Pacha, which also had a narrow escape of being wrecked, having run on shore off Oporto. ORIGIN OF BRANDY.-Brandy is supposed to have been invented by Raymundus Lullius, the famous alchymist, who died in 1315. Charles the Bad, king of Navarre, came to a most horrible end, says Mezerey, who, to restore his strength, weakened by debauchery, was wrapped in sheets steeped in eau de vie, or brandy. His valet, by accident, set fire to them after the third day he died in the most dreadful tortures. FRESH AIR.—Man is intended to draw in fresh air every time he breathes. Almost all people, when in their houses, and the working people in their shops, breathe the same air over and over again. To show the necessity of allowing fresh air continually to enter dwelling rooms, and the bad air to escape, it may be stated that every person, during each minute of his life, destroys a quantity of air twice as large as himself. PANCAKES BY POST.-On Shrove Tuesday, a trades- man of Monmouth sent presents of six pancakes to some nephews and nieces, through the Post-office. SUING FOil DAMAGES.—" Hallo, Sharp," said Pop, meeting him the other day in the street, yon hobble, my boy what's the matter with you?" "Oh, I had my feet crushed through the carelessness of a conductor the other day, between the cars, that's all." And don't you mean to sue for damages?" 11 Damages No I have had damages enough from them already, hadn't I better sue for repairs ?—American paper. In an extraordinary consistory, to be convoked on or about the 18th of March at Rome, the Pope will com- municate to the cardinals, the state of the negotiations pending between him and the Cabinet of St. Peters- burgh. A nomination of bishops, among others some Spanish bishops, will take place. News has been re- ceived from different legations that soldiers belonging to the Swiss regiments are missing, and no traces of them discovered. No doubt they have been assassinated. At Perusa five carabineers have been assassinated whilst on duty, and the authorities have not been able to dis- cover the murderers. MR. COBDEN FOR BUCKINGHAMSHIRE.—At a meet- ing held last week at Mosley, it was resolved that every one present would purchase a qualification for Bucking- hamshirc, provided Mr. Cobden would pledge himself to stand as a candidate.- Preston Guardian. I FRANCE,-According to a letter from Algiers of the 25th ult., the Dukes D'Aumale and Montpensier, and a reinforcement of 15,000 men, were expected in Africa to take part in the grand expedition against the Kabyls in the course of the spring. The 7?M&'MM<m announces that the expedition to Madagascar had been definitively countermanded. CONVICTION FOR WIFE MURDER. At Reading Assizes, on Wednesday last, William Spicer, aged 48, was found guilty of the wilful murder of his wife, Eliza- beth Spicer, at Reading, on the 8th of August last. The prisoner had only been married a few months to his wife, who was some years older than himself. He is supposed to have married her from mercenary motives, and is suspected to have deliberately planned her mur- der. To two or three persons he spoke of her being subject to giddiness, and remarked that he should not be surprised if she were to fall down dead. On the day of the murder, it is believed that he struck her a violent blow on the head with a stone; then took her up in his arms and threw her down the cellar stairs, the fall breaking her back and causing her death. He then went out, and on returning home pretended that he could not find his wife, and on her dead body being dis- covered, he endeavoured to create an impression that she had fallen down the stairs and accidentally killed herself. Various circumstances, however, transpired which tended to fix the guilt of murder upon the pri- soner; and on being convicted, Baron Platt passed sentence of death without hope of mercy. MURDER OF FATHER BY HIS SON.—At New- castle Assizes^iefb. 27, Ralph Joicey, aged 24, was charged with the wilful murder of his father, Robert Joicey, at Cockle Park, in December last. The old man, it appeared, lived uncomfortably with his family, and his son, the prisoner, procured some arsenic, made it up into the form of a prescription, and left it at a public house directed to his father, as if it had been sent from the medical gentleman who attended the family. The old man took the poison, believing it to be medicine, and he died the next day. The prisoner was found guilty, and sentenced to death. CHILD MURDER.—On Friday forenoon, at eleven o'clock, William Carter, Esq., held an inquest at the Fountain Tavern, Walworth-road, on the body of James King, aged one month, who died from the effects of injuries inflicted by its mother, now an inmate of the lunatic ward of Newington workhouse. John King, a shoemaker, stated that the deceased was his son. On the night of the 31st January, witness was alarmed by hearing the infant scream, aad upon looking round saw his wife biting or gnawing its face in a very ravenous- manner. He caught hold of the deceased, but was unable for several minutes to get the child away, and in doing so she bit witness's hands severely. She be- came violent, and was subsequently compelled to be confined with a strait waistcoat. She seemed to be quite ignorant of the act she had committed. She had not been right in her mind for the last three years. The child had, it appeared, been carefully attended to since, but had died a few days since of the wounds in- flicted on it by the mother. The coroner, addressing the jury, observed that they must view the case in point of law as arising from violence, which was clearly proved to be the act of the mother of the deceased, who was certainly guilty of murder. As to the state of mind she was in at the time she committed the act, they had nothing to do with it, that was quite out of their juris- diction, it would be fully investigated in a superior court. The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder" against Mary Ann King, the mother of the deceased. MURDER OF A POLICEMAN BY RAILWAY LAROUR- ERS.—About midnight, on Saturday, two excavators employed on the North British Railway works, at Hawick, about eleven miles from Edinburgh, were ap- prehended and lodged in the police station, at Gore- bridge. Here, a mob of their fellow-workmen, armed with pick-axes, &c. assembled, broke open the prison, and having liberated the two men, marched off with them, when, unfortunately, they encountered a police- man named Pace, who was returning from his rounds. They fell upon the unhappy man with their weapons, and left him lying in the road, weltering in his blood, in which condition he was afterwards found and removed to his home, where he died the next day. Thirteen of the rioters have been apprehended. SENTENCE OF DEATH—SHOCKING SCENE.—At the Longford assizes, John Buchanan and Bernard M'Goey, convicted of murder, were brought up to receive sen- tence. The utmost stillness pervaded a very crowded court.-The Clerk of the Crown, in the usual manner, asked the prisoner what they had to say why sentence of death and execution should not be passed on them ? Both of them knelt down in front of the: dock, and Buchanan, who appeared to speak for both of them, said, In the sight of God, this court, and the jury, I protest I had not hand, act, or part in the murder of Henry Bergin, and may I never see God or hia angels in heaven if I murdered him. I forgive my prosecutors, judge, and jury." He then entered into an explanation of how he was occupied in Longford the day of the mur- der, and closed with an imprecation which shocked and made the hair of every person in court stand on end, that Hell may be my doom, and the devil my angel, if I murdered you, Henry Bergin."—After this- he rose, and the Judge, in a most feeling manner, ia. which he said that no person who had heard the evi- dence could doubt the justness of the verdict, called on them both to repent, and, saying that he could hoJd. out no hope of clemency to them, sentenced them to be hanged.—The day named is Saturday, March 21. LONDON AND LIVERPOOL.—Taking the young and- old together, it is found that twenty-six years is the average age at which people die in London, and seven- teen in Liverpool. DESTRUCTIVE FIRE AT LIVERPOOL.—Between one and two o'clock on Friday morning, the extensive pre- mises of Mr. Moore, soap manufacturer, Vauxhall-road, Liverpool, were discovered to be on fire, and such was the rapidity with which the flames spread, that before the information could reach the Fire Police Station, the entire buildings were in flames. The greatest appre- hensions were felt for the safety of the surrounding premises. It is conjectured that the fire originated in the overheating of the flues. The damage is estimated at several thousand pounds, which is covered by insurance. THE OVERLAND ROUTE VIA TRIESTE.—The hon. the East-India Company have presented Lieutenant Waghorn with the sum of £ 300. CIRENCESTER AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE.—The open- ing has been deferred until after Lady-day. It is in the contemplation of the council to complete the build- ing, so as to accommodate two hundred students, as originally proposed; for it appears doubtful whether, with a less number, the establishment can be kept in a state of full efficiency at the low charge for each of £;30 per annum, which the council is anxious not to exceed. It appears, too, that additional capital will be required for this purpose. AGRICULTURAL STOCK.—Turnips are so abundant in this county, stock so scarce, and the season so mild, that the owners can neither sell nor consume their stocks; consequently, in many instances, the turnips are being ploughed into the ground. Our market column shows the great advance which has taken place in the value of butchers' meat; 9d. per pound has this week been given in this city for legs of mutton.-Ile;-e- ford Times. A DOG SCHOOL.—A Mr. Henry Winfield, of Utica, United States, announces that he has opened a dog school, where he will teach dogs to go on errands as correctly as any boy ten years old-to dance as well as the most accomplished dancer, waltz, cut the pigeon wing, to count the number of persons in the room, also to distinguish the number and colour of persons pre- sent.-American paper. BRiDroRT ELECTION.—This election terminated in the return of Mr. Cochrane by a majority of one, the numbers being for-Cochrane, 210; Romilly, 239. Mr. Cochrane's majority would have amounted to two, but the last independent elector," whose vote was tendered on his behalf, refused to take the bribery oath. NORTH NOTTINGHAMSHIRE ELECTION.—The poll closed on Thursday, when the majority of Lord H. Ben- tinck, over the Earl of Lincoln was 1,523. To account for so large a majority, it is necessary to observe that the Earl of Lincoln was nominated for the northern division of the county against his consent; but that, being pro- posed by an elector, Mr. Bailey, he did not think proper formally to withdraw. | Go IT FELIX !-A letter from Washington states that General Felix Grundy M'Connell, the renowned re- presentative in Congress from the seventh district of Alabama, has given it out as his serious intention, to move a series of joint resolutions for the immediate re-annexation" of Ireland to the United States Good.—American Paper. CASE FOR DIVORCE.—At New York, a short time ago, a person applied to the proper court to be divorced from his wife, because she would persist in putting her cold feet against him when in bed!
