There is a decided and general improve- ment in the aspect of the commercial att'aira of Great Britain, as the improving state of the cotton market plainly, shows. and tho wea- ther, so favourable to the harvest. which has been lately experienced. no doubt has bad its influence in producing a change so much needed, and one Wind), in the event ofits continuance. will preserve the lower classes from thoro dreadful evils which the severity ofthe winter season. and an unsatisfactory state of trade, with its consequent want of emyoyment, inevitably produce. ‘

article from Pcscu :— rnu mm: or wants.

We have been given to understaan that the Dowager Lady Lyttelton has not been insenaible to the necessity of explaining to the prince of Wales the unhappy con: dition of the locality from which his Royal Highnessderlves its title. I-ler latlyship, we believe, introduced the subject in the following delicate maner:—-“ Ah ! do they agitate his little principality, and rutBe his liltle feathers for him, adear'! Does Miss Becca pull down the nasty turn- pikcs‘! 0h, shocking ! But we ’ll send a little body of policemen, won’t we 1-- Though they are all sent back again with horrid fleas in their poor little ears.— Httshaby baby ! Don’t him cry, nor wet him little lace frock all over with him lit- tle sbiuey, piney, whiney, tiney tears I And do the wicked men go about dressed up like naughty women, and pull the little gates offthcir little hinges I But they shant’t do it any more; no, that they shan’t, for we ’ll send the little dragoons, and keep his little peace for hitn in his little principality. A little duck ! won’t we!” This beautiful elementary lesson on the slate of the notion gradually goes ofl'iuto the charming romance oi “ Baby baby bunting,” which has the effect nf= making the Prince do that which all wise

Pants —-'I‘he French are ofl‘toGer- many, Italy, England, Switzerland, and the watering-places on the coast; and the English are here, and coming! here. If the emigration continues at the same rate as it has for the last tew weekS, London will become de- populatcd. Already,in almost every shop window do you see a placard, notifying that “ Here they apeke the English,” or “Anglish spoken here;” and already do the garcons ofthe cafes and restaurants try to talk in our beautiful language—Pic.

Sla,--I am happy to have it in my power to state, for the information of your readers, that the hint ofyour correspondent “Nepiodidaskaloa"— has had the desired effect, as I have observed three young Ladies within the last week, actively engaged in collecting tnoney for the furtherance of an Institution, the object of which is to teach the rising generation to “ run so that they may obtain” a heavenly prize. This is indeed high- ly creditable. ‘

By the way, Mr. Moody, I wish to remind my fair sisters—the Dorcas’s -~that the cold winter is not far dis- tant. when their valuable services will be required :--our public charity funds are nearly exhausted.

A 'l‘ory is a gentleman every inch of him, stock, lock. and barrel: and he puts a clean frill-ahirt on everyday. A Whig is a gentleman every other inch of him, and he puts an unfrilled one on every other day. A Radical ain’t no gentleman at all, and he only puts one on of a Sun- day. But a Cbartist is a loafer; he never puts one on till the old one won’t hold to- gether no longer, and drops off in pieces. -—Stick.
