Wns'rums'rait‘. MEDICAL Socrn'rru—On Sa- turday evening, Dr. James Johnson introduced a conversation upon the cold water system, unvv getting into much vogue in Germany and other parts of the continent, for the cure of various diseases, and even of pneumonia. The patients drink largely ofcold water, and this often alter- nated with immersion in that liquid, when the body profusely perspires. Mr. Winslow gave an instance of some water drinkers who drank no less than five to six gallons daily, and stated that at'Vienna a magnificent set of baths had been constructed, in which this system was put in operation. Tan FEAST or TABERNACLE§.—The Jews have just celebrated this festival ; it commenced on Monday week, and continued till yesterday. They each take to the Synagogue leaves of the date tree, the citron, boughs of myrtle, and branches of the drooping willow. On Saturday last, being the intermediate one of the feast, at very impressive sermon was preached by Mr. H. N. Solomon, on the text “ The feast of harvest home, at the year’s circuit." This sermon was delivered in English, (prayers being always read in Hebrew,) and the object of the preacher evidently was to impress on the heads of the congregation, the necessity and expediency of making public preaching a part oftheir religious worship. The sermon was listened to with great attention, and appeared to make a deep impres- sion on the minds of the congregation, more particularly that portion which gave a description of the manner in which this festival was celebra- ted on the restoration of the Jews under Nehemiah and Ezra. Pnonrcrons SINccunn.—-The will of Lord Arden, deceased, has just been proved. The personal property alone has been sworn under the value of 800,000!. The registrarship of the High Court of Admiralty became vacant when his lordship was an infant ofsome few months 0 old, and was actually given to and retained for him; until he was capable ofofiiciating, the ofiice was duly performed by deputy. In time ofwar the emoluments arising from his situation amounted to between 20,0001. and 30,0001. a-year. He held the same for upwards of eighty years. By an act passed last session, the present ministers have put this office, with that of the Judge of the Admiralty, upon such a looting as to prevent the possibility ofa similar abuse in future. Tue ROYAL CRADLE Cavern—On Monday week, a meeting of Spitalfields’ weavers took place in the large room attached to the National Schools, in Abbey-street, Bethnalgreen, for the purpose of taking into consideration the report ofa committee, appointed on the 215i of July, with a view to the production of a piece of workmanship worthy to be presented to the Queen. The drawings prepared for the inten- ded specimen were exhibited to the meeting, and excited much admiration,the dimensions ofthe piece of silk on which they are to be worked being six feet by four. The design is allegori- cal, and will, of course, include many figures, the minutest account of which would, after all, convey but a very inadequate notion of an under- taking that bids fair to be creditable to the skill and beneficial to the interests of those engaged in the manufacture of silk. CONCLUSION or run Human—The Mi- chaelmas Summer, with which the country has been blessed, has enabled the farmers in the north of England to gather up the residue of the harvest" in excellent condition, and we may say that ". nothing has been lost.” The late cropsofcorn have been housed in safety; the second crops of clover hang" been saved, which is rather a rare occurrence,—and the potatoe N) N ' I has l othered in October, _ l‘ilnfleicgellent condition,:—leav1ng ct order for the reception oft finding its way Into crop, which is u been put in store the land i15er h is mm w to liliegartostfrfd ’for‘ the next yardagfip. bible 1:31;: of the harvest has, on e _ _. l d in the more favourable than was antIpra e I f and Jul ; and the peop e o £33211? f Stand anyd Ireland have othe uarantce of wholesome food at moderatet ggtczsf for another year.

The blessings of the present'bountiful harveft have already become apparent In the poor min a board, in the reduction of price which Is ta mg place in all the first necessaries of life. At this moment, in Glasgow, there are 3,000 public houses among 290,000 persons, Included in 58,000 families, being nearly one public-house for every twenty families. The number of In- habited houses is about 30,000, so that every tenth house is appropriated to the sale of spirits. Murrat'n among Coulee—Within the last twelve months cows and oxeryhave suffered very severely in various parts 0f Engl‘fld» 3° much 30’ will many small graziers and dairymen have lost their entire stock. The disease was, at firSl. 00"5'de'ed only epidemic; but the veterinary surgeons throughout the country have pronounced It to be highly infectidus. The consequence has been, that cattle which have been affected With the above malignant disorder have been very Judlcl- nus], kept apart from such as have been pro- nounced to be sound and healthy. A gentleman. residing near Plumstead, by way of experiment, a short time since caused the cows upon his es- tate to be inoculated with the vaccine virus (cow pox.) which appeared to operate as a preventative against the above malady: for, although his neigh- bours’ cattle were dying around him In all di- rections, not one of his cows (seven In number) exhibited the slightest symptoms of murram. WILLIAMS, THE MrasrouhnY.—The sum already subscribed for the widow and family ofthis deeply lamented individual amounts to £1,658 lSs. 10d. Amongst the subscriptions we notice £82 from the Wesleyan Chapel, at Adelaide, South Aus- tralia. ROTATORY Enema—An engine upon this principle was tried last Wednesday in Leeds, in the presence of several engineers. Its enormous power in so small a compass, (the whole machin- ery, with the exception ofthe fly-wheel. being con- tained in a box inches in depth and 10 inches diameter,) surprised every one present ; the speed was tremendous, making from 600 to 700 revolutions per minute. Its power was tested by placing breaks upon the fly-wheel, which was done to the extent that the shaft was actually twisted in two pieces, but no accident occurred. It to the intention of the inventor to apply the machine to propel carriages on common roads, for which purpose it appears admirably adapted ; likewise for the purposes of marine navigation, where the small quantity of room it requires is a material consideration ; in short, it will answer all the purposes wherein steam is required, and the expence will be considerably abridged. The inventor is Joseph Briggs, watchmaker, ofthis town—Leeds Intelligencer. PATENT STEAM Enema—During the last three weeks we have been working our printing machines, tirade by Napier, London, by a three- horse power patent steam engine, the first of the kind manufactured at the steam carriage works of Messrs. J. W. Rogers 62. ‘Co., Newcomen Bridge Mills, North Strand, partners of Sir James Anderson, Bart., the boiler being on the same principle as that used in Sir James’s steam- carriagcs for c6mmon roads. metal, four feet long by two feet broad, placed upon a frame of timber so as to allow a free passage of air underneath, supports the entire engine and boiler, occupying altogether a space of four feet by two feet in the machine room. The boiler is not set in brick, but appears like a stove, tastefully ornamented at top by an open scroll work, and the engine, which is_aupported by a handsome framing, has neither a beam or extraneous work ofany kind, and is so simple in Its construction, that it can scarcely go out of order. When we describe an engine ofthree- horse power, occupying, boiler and all, less, space than the table at which we write, the vast advantages to many on that score alone will be manifest, but its economy is even more remark- able; from four to six pence covers all expenses of fuel for each publication, which occupies about two .and a half hours. It is fully capable of striking of? from fifty to sixty copies per minute, and we may add the extraordinary fact—that steam Is got up, and the engine in full work, wrthIn fifteen minutes from the time oflighting the fire. We are anxious to give publicity to “"5. knowrng that many persons are deterred from the use of steam power in consequence of the great space occupied, A machine like this con beerected in any room, boarded or other- wrse, without the slightest danger. a fact which must enhance its advantages. —Sauudcrs’s News Leann—Dublin, October 6, 1840.
