In the Bulletin d'Encourl, 1839, it is announced, that Mr. Seller, of Paris, had secured a patent for the right of using brum wires for attaching the upper leather to the welt of boots and shoes.

An ox's gall will set any colour, silk, cotton, or woollen; the gall can be got for a trifle. Get out all the liquid, and cork it up in a large phial.

After being washed in this, things you want to clean should be washed in warm suds without using soap. F'eathers should be thoroughly dried before used.

For this reason, they should not be packed away in bags when they are first plucked they should be laid lightly in a basket or uld box, and stirred up often. The garret is the best place to dry them. It is u-ell to put parcels which you have from time to time in the oven, alter you have removed your bread, and let them stand a day. If feather beds smell badly, or become heavy for want of proper preservation of the feathers, or from old age, empty them, and wash the feathers thoroughly in a tub of suds, spread them in your garret to dry, and they will be as light and as good as new ones. In winter always set the handle of your pump as high as possible before you go to bed.

We have received letters from our correspondents at St. Sebastian, and at the Hcail.quiine.is of the Duke tie Victoria. The correspondence uf the latter, dated Pamplona, the gives a lively account of the solemn reception given to lOsportero in the capital of Navarrs.

Aniidbt the rejoicing of the Christinos, a very significant tribute was paid to Espartcro for on the entrance of the first Navarrese battalion, on the 20th, they laid their arms at his feet, on accepting the Bergera Convention and on the entrance ot Ortigosa and the Carlist garrisap of Estella, on eyeneng of the 21st, they octet! in a similar manner. Their submission completes the pacification of Navarre, as well as of the Basque Provinces.

The Finis Journals of Wednesday arrived this morning. Th2 Moniteur publishes a Royal nunee conferring decorations of the Legion of Honor on several Ofricirs and seamen belonging to the French squadions on the coast of Mexico and Buenos Ayres. liy another Ordinance, King Louis Philippe granted the same distinction to one of the Nmive Cniel's of iht river Gabon, in the Gulf of Jliscuv, kuov.ii by the name of King Denis. This Black Chief who.W brother was a non-commissioned Officer in. old guard, had rendered numerous and signal services to the merchant vessels and navies of France, and treated with extreme kindness the crew of French vessels shipwrecked on that coast.

The commander of the slatiun repeatedly pressed him to accept a recompense fur his services, but lie invariably refused, and could only be prevailed upon to accept the Cross of the Legion ii 0 JI ZlOIlOI. A' dreadful lire broke out at Nantes in the night uf 21st in the cavalry barrack of the entrepot. the ihe men and horses were turtitnatelv saved: bin the fiimies extended so rapidly that all tiie military effects contained in the building were consumed. No less than nine persons lost their lives in endeavouring to put out the tire. Amongst the victims were four firemen, a sergeant of infantry, and a sergeant-major of the National Guard.

Upwards of 40 persons were wounded. The renoh Papers of Wednesday are occupied with the partial troubles which have broken out in different districts, in consequence uf the general anxiety respecting the price of corn. These have not been con-liiictl to the centre and to the west of fiance for troubles, we also learn, have taken place in the south, in the d(-parlment of the Var. The journals assert that lminu-factuus are in too buffering a state in France to permit of any rise in wages proportionate to the rise in the price of corn. The Cimrrier 1'rancnis states this, and adds that France has not yet recovered the consequences of the monetary crisis of the United Stales.

This may account for the distress and discontent at Lille, but not bottle turbulence of the peasantry of the purely agricultural department of the Sarlhe. If such troubles weie to become geneial, and to extend to the manufacturing population uf Normandy, the result would be far more seri-uis. 'The Vourrier Francois demands a diminution of die duty on the importation of corn and cattle. During years which have succeeded each other since 1030 die French proprietors have been ever complaining that (anil produces no return in franco.

The Cuvnier I'riiiirtiis compares, much to the advantage of the Queen's troops, the conduct of the Christine soldiers with that of the Carlists, who have just disbanded.

It says that the former have acted with discipline and 'moderation, while tlie latter have murdered, pillaged, and laid wasle the country. The Hoitrrier is of opinion that Cabrera cannot hold out, but it fears a liberal movement at Madrid, and it calls on the Spanish Government to concede every just demand, in order to prevent that misfortune.

General Aluix also presented a project on the same day, granting to General Espartero sucli national property as he should make choice of, to the amount of a million ot rials annually. Don Carlos arrived at Bourges on Sunday.

A great crowd assembled to see him, but were much 'disappointed at (hiding the blinds of the carriage drawn aip, whilst the horses were going at a sharp trot, with a jiiquet.of artillery in front and gendarmes in the rear, who bud been waiting for Don Carlos at the entrance of Khe town.

Coiftitg Rcgibtration The Court held before Messrs. Oxenham and Revising Barristers, was opened on Monday last, at the Audit House, and the following is the-'result, as handed to us by a Conservative friend, "but of whose integrity in political matters we have no doubt. The great gain to the Tories may be -accounted for- by the fact that the Whigs allowed themselves to be unrepresented, whilst, on the other band, two or three professional gentlemen were present to support the claims, of the Conservatives, and the objections of the Whigs. Conservative claims, 60; expunged, including old and new claimants, ain, 83. Radical (claims, 26; expunged, including old and new claimants, 54 ioss, 23.

The 25th anniversary meeting' of the British and Foreign Bible Society, was held on Tuesday evening, til (he Long Rooms, Dr. Wilson in the Chair, when a deputation from the Parent Society attended to urge its claims on the public; and, from their statements, shewed that the Society is still most actively engaged in distributing the volume of inspiration over every part of the globe. A public distribution of Bibles and Testaments closed the businessof'the evening. The half-yearly meeting; of the Masonic Provident Association of this province, was held on Thursday evening at the Masonic Hall, Bugle-street, Admiral Sir Lucius Curtis, in the Chair.

A communication was read to the mectingftiim his Royal Highness the Duke of Sussex, M.W. Grand Master, consenting to become the pulron of (he Institution, it being the first established out of London. Several new members were elected, a further investment offumlsinhand ordered. This institution bids fair fo become one of the most useful and benevolent establishments among the fraternity, and as such claims their attention. The cause of the Church Pastoral Aid Society, a branch of which has recently been established in this town, will be advocated at Trinily tn.morrow morning and afternoon, by Ihe Rev.

Edward Auriol, M.A, and on Monday, two meetings, having the same object in view, will be held al (he Victoria Assembly Rooms, Dr. Wilson presiding, when Mr. N. Baxter, one of the Honorary Secretaries of the Society will attend. The object of this Society is to provide additional Curates in populous places, where the stipend of the incumbent is too to allow him to maintain an assistant out of his own resources; and, although the Society has not been in existence above three years, the grants it has made have been very extensive.

The. cause of the Weslcvan Missions was ad vocated on Sunday last, at the Methodist Chapel, in this town and on the following evening a public meeting was held at the tame place, when much infor mation was given respecting the operations ot tlie Society, which appear to have been very successful during the past year.

A plan for the formation of'docks at Northam Marsh has been recently projected, and the necessary surveys are now being made, previous to the formation of a Company for the purpose of carrying this scheme, which appears to be a very feasible one, into effect. The ship-yard at Northam, bordering the spot above mentioned, has also been taken, and keels will be laid down immediately for one or two vessels. Hop Market, Robevtsbridge Fair, in this county, presented a great variety in ihe samples. Some lots of this year's growth ware sold at 85s. The'duty was called about 225,000.

Some sales have been effected here, within these few days, of the new, at a reduction of2s. to 4s. from last week's prices, for the supply of the different fairs held at this season. The Parnimm duty is noted at 8,000., and the North Clays at 3,000. The former last year paid 7,000., and the latter only 583.

So large a produce of choice hops must very considerably affeet the East and Middle Kents.

Before the arrival of the llhadamanlhus, there was a current report that we were likely to go to bring them back but this news changed the aspect of affairs, and the Admiral immediately set oft' for Constantinople, for the work would not be tin easy task. As to the French here, their ringers are itching to force the Dardanelles, in which they wish us to join; some of them go so far as to say, that if nothing at-all is done, it will be a disgrace to their nation Who in the world," says Admiral Lelande, do we fear You, with 10 sail of the line, and 1, with eight antl three three-deckers more coming, need care for no one Who can stop us wherever we please to go Tlie Russian army and fleet are within 40 miles of Constantinople, and the Russian party in Constantinople very strong.

Since writing the foregoing, (he Admiral has relumed from Constantinople in the Rhadoman-tlms. Yesterday he had an inurview with the new. Suttun and his ministry all at present is a mystery to us touching the diplomatic affairs it is now reported, that we shall, prcbably in a day or so, startler Alexandria. By a French steamer, arrived a few days since, we hear that the Pacha of Egypt has further declared, that if any force attuck him, lie will, after destroying the fleets, march his whole army into Turkey upon Constantinople; for he says, he is perfectly aware that there is no one lo binder him and if the Russians march into disease will rapidly carry them off; and by various means he is well able to repulse them moreover, the sickly seasomis coining on. Another letter from Constantinople says," If England wishes to preserve peace, she must act with vigour.

Let the fleets be ordered to Constantinople, anil the home squadron to the mouth of the umber, with what French ships there are now in Franee, ami then tell Russia she must disarm. If we do not net with vigour, the chapter of accidents will be in favour of Russia, and sooner or later she will plant hei flag on the tower of St. Sophia." The Blenheim, 72, Captain Sir H.

At Ihe Island Pattndgej In ihe Sound Eollaand WisarrL I was lowered down, on ihe starboard, or northern, sidc of the Royal George, nearly in midships, and at a place where, by the diver'saccuunt, the wreck wasinost compact. At 2 o'clock, the lighters were drawn oft' to the distance ol'uUO feet, which is the length ofllie wire connecting the charge with the voltaic battery, and at five minutes after 2, on the mysterious circuit being completed at the battery on deck, the explosion took place at the bottom of the sea. Those who had the good fortune to be present will not soon forget the consequences that followed. A severe, quick shock, like that of an earthquake, was felt, accompanied by an abrupt und loud sound, such as cannot be described.

The surface of the sta, immediately over the explosion, was, at the very instant of the charge going off, violently agitated, over an area of about iUO yards, in a manner not unlike that which is to be seen at the open space between Blockhouse and point, in a strong ebb tide. In three or four seconds afterwards, the water directly over the spot, began to rise in the form of bee-hive, and gradually swelling as it rose, became like a bune hav-cock. which could not have been less in height than 25 feet, while the estimate of some' persons rate it at 30 feet above the surface. This immense column of watir, on falling down, produced a uiiLuidi wuvc ui fticui ueauiy, oemg imtj and about four feet high, which was followed by several other smaller ones, which were succeeded by the whirlpools and violent agitation formerly described, only these were more extensive than in the case of ihe smaller charges. The effect produced on the Royal George by this great explosion has since been ascertained by the divers, to be fully as extensive as was anticipated; aiid, accordingly, at every successive slack tide, since Monday, large masses of the wreck have been slung, and drawn to the surface.

One brass gun, a 24-pounder, of great beauty, 9ft. 6in. in length, and quite uninjured by time, has been recovered as well as three iron 32-poundjrs, of one of which the carriage is quite perfect. Those parts of the iron which have been exposed are reduced to a soft substance like plumbago; but those which have beeti tinder the mud areas hard, and quite as entire as eVer. This remark applies also (o every description df timber.

For example, to the capstan, which wa's'Braw'n up on Wednesday, the after drumhead of welfij'; is almost worn away, whilijhe lower drumhead and all its other parts are as 'fi-cshijirid firm a's when they were first made Two tillers nave been gotiip, quite eiitire, and much ironwork, including the shank painter, but the whole worn away to a thread. So many beams, and knees have.now been recovered from the bottom, that we feel con. yliieed Colonel Pasley will remove the. whole in a shorter 'time thaii we at first conceived possible. skill and perseverance having now fully hisebnimarid over submarine explosions of any magnitude, there is nothing that can stand in his way, for the moment any mass of wreck becomes refractory i and shows itself to be beyond the power of an ordinary purchase, a charge of powder, varying from 45 to 250, and from that up to 2000 pounds, is brought to bear against it, and all re.

sistance is vain. We observe there are two divers, and two sets of wiirkmeii, in two different lumps, moored so near one another as to be within hail, and the instant the tide begins to slacken, down both divers go, and thus the most eager, but at the same time the most cheerful, competition, is kept up between the two parties, and great animation is given to an operation otherwise not a little irksome and laborious. We have all along re. marked, too, with much satisfaction, the hearty manner in which the blue jackets co-operate with the soldiers in this truly united service no petty jealousy, but on the contrary, a generous rivalry and good fellowship in naru work appears to pervade all the parties engaged in engineering and nautical service. v.
