The steam-ship Great Western, Cap lain Matthews, from Liverpool, arrived at her berth in the East River, about lu o’- clock Saturday evening. By this arrival we have our usual files of papers from London up to and inclu ding the 11th instant, Liverpool papers ol ilie 12th, Paris dates of tiie 9th, and Dub lin and Havre dates of the 10th. The Western brings 139 passengers. She has had favorable weather —made the passage in fourteen days and 13 hours. The wheat markets of London and Li verpool are inactive. By the average re turns ofthe kingdom, made up to Thurs day, the duties remained uualtered. Pre vious rates have been reluctantly paid. The cheese which came to hand by the Great Western was in excellent order, and sold readily at the quotations. In deed, so growing is the feeling in favor of American provisions generally that it pr anises to become one ofthe most tliri ■v ig trades between the two countries. The vessels now sailing for Hmerica, t, *es but few goods. Shipments being few, freights are consequently low. In American bond* there has been but little doing, and they remain unaltered in value. Money has been in increasing demand —first rates bills are two and a half to two and three quarters, and others three to five per cent. Mr. Marble, the American Comedian, continues to grow in favor with (he Cock neys. Pending the visit ofthe “Citizen King* to his Royal Sister of England, news has arrived from Tahiti of some additional indignity which the French had put upon an English officer. The affairs of Tahiti are reduced to | their relative importance; they have noli ceased to excite regret, but they do not a- i waken any fears of a warlike character, j Anew charge has been brought by the times against Mr. Gibbs, the Lord Mayor elect for the city of London, for having mal-appropriated funds which came into his possession asexecufor under a will. The lady ot Mr. Pritchard, late British Consul at Tahiti landed in Cove on the 3rd instant from llie Cape Breton, Kerr, master from Valparaiso. The accounts from Berlin, state that tiic King had given a dinner, to which were invited all the grand dignitaries of the Christian churches, and also thegrand rabbi ol the Jews. This is the first time that a rabbi has had the honor conferred on him. Thursday was kept by the congregation at St. Bride’s Church Liverpool, as a day of thanksgiving for the Lie abundant har vest. of the most remarkable features ot i the daV is tfid speculation which is now going forward in new railway projects,; and of the numberand extent ot these pro jects, the crowded co.'uimis of the Lon don nad country papers nu'>rd d*uly evi dence. It has been staled by persons practically acquainted with the sgbj-ct, that the railway acts obtained from ti.'* Legislature during the last session of Par liament will require for the completion of the undertakings within a trifle of twelve; millions sterling—sixty millions of dollars but if all the parties who propose going to Parliament in the next session, succeed at; least six limes that amount of money will be abstracted from the ordinary channel.. of trade! Speculation if of course rife as to the subjects which will engage the attention of the batch of politicians who are now enjoying the Queen’s hospitalities in her favorite residence; but probably nothing beyond speculation will transpire. Isa more cordial and friendly feeling is likely to Sjsring upon the part of the French to wards the English people, the visit will not have been in vain. Every event, how ever, in a free country, is made to bear a political impress, and there is reason to apprehend that the stability of M. Guizot's cabinet will not be increased by bis ac companying the King. Some of the London Clubs have adop ted, it is said, at the suggestion of the Rev. Sidney Smith, the plan of rejecting for complimentary admission or as members, the citizens oi the repudiating States iu America. Charles Kemble has returned to Manchester, to complete a second engage- i ment at the Athenaeum of that town. The English Churchman, a religious' publication of the traclarian school, thus) notices the Queen’s appearance at the vil- j lage church of Blair Athol. Her Majesty has for the nonce turned Presbyterian. This may be good policy, according to Lord Aberdeen’s notions, but it is bad eburchmanship. The accounts from the manufacturing districts present nothing striking. Busi ness is certainly not worse. In Manches ter rather more activity prevailed on the last market day, and prices were looking up. Not the least cheering feature is the revenue return for the quarter ending Thursday, which is the most gratifying character. It is consolatory to find that in the Posi Office, the great accumulation of pennies j has advanced .£32,000 on the year, and; no less than «£40,00$ on the quarter. Mr. Cole, Vice-president of the Total Abstinence Society, Washington, has been delivering lectures in favor of temperance 1 in Liverpool, lie is about returning toj the United States. The vessel having on board the Roman Catholic Bishop, the Nuns and others, which sailed some time ago from Brest for the Sandwich Islands, had not arrived at the date of the last accounts. Rumors prevailed in the South Seas that she had foundered off Cape Horn. On the Stk inst. Dr. Svmons, who w as opposed by the Puseyites, was elected Vice Chancellor of Oxford University by a majority of 882 to 189. The tfnzzetie of Tuesday nolle#* the further prorogation of Parliament from Thursday, Oct. 10, to Thursday the 12th of December. The Journal de Havre of the sth Inst, mentions the deathjof Mr. Gordon, the British Consul at that place. The Papal government has rejected the proposition of an English company to con struct a Ilail-road between Civlta Yecchia and Rome. The return ofthe Revenue for the quar ter ending 10th October, shewing nu in crease in the Customs, compared with the corresponding period of 1343 on the year jof and the quarterof .£473, 317. Six miles of atmospheric railway, from the Dartmouth Arms to Croydon, will, it is expected, be ready in May mxt. The Hugsburg Gazette mentions the probability of a matrimonial alliance be tween Prince George of Cambridge and the Grand Duches* Olga of Russia —one ol the results of the late Journey to Eng land ol the Russian Czar. The young prince is heir presumptive to the crown! of Hanover. The arrival in England of Louis Phil-* iippe and his minister, M. Guizot, on a vi- I sit to Queen Victoria, is the primary at-j traction of the week. The reception j which the French monarch experienced at landing was hearty arid fervent; and j from the time of his selling foot on British] soil, until he found himself in the royal I apartments of Windsor Castle, his progress 1 resembled an ovation. Whether the visit will add to the popu- I larily of Louis Pliillippe amongst his own ] subjects is questionable; but no doubt ex-■ isls that it will encrcnse the number of his ' well-wishers on this side the channel. THE BIBLE AND THE CONTINEN TAL CONGRESS. The following extract 1 was permitted to make from an oration delivered on the! 4th of July last, by ProfessorG. W. Ben edict,of the University of Vermont. The facts in relation to the Bible were new to me, and I presume will be so to many of your readers. Recent discussions have given them interest and importance, and I hope you will find a place for them in' your paper. “Every one at all acquainted with the] history oi*the Revolution, remembers the! stirring events ofthe summer of 1777. Ti- O j condeongu had fallen into Ibe hands of] the British, with the capture ordestruc-j tioti of a large, amount of military stores; land means of war. Burgoyncwas pas-] [sing down with a great force to j in the; [forces of the enemy which had possession ; ofthe Hudson. The unpropitious battle of Brandywine was fought, Philadelphia v as threatened, and indeed fell into the power es the enemy, and Congress was !obliged to leave that city and its vicinity !to avoid being made prisoners. All this i was before the end of September. Indeed I they passed a resolution to adjourn, if it j [should be needful, on the 14th of that' |month, and they left the city precipitate-] |!v in consequence of a despatch from Gen.! j Washington, intimating the propriety of; [doing so, which came to hand after ad journment on the 18th. They convened 'the ne>’t time at Lancaster, from which place ti'.'ey again temoved their sessions; | to York, slii. 1 further in the interior of Penn- i j sylvania. 1 mo.''li''n these circumstances <oilv to bring clear ly before your minds! ihe darkness of that iiOUf, and that all may realize that the transaction which 1 | was about to relate, was not of an >“.e ’I 10 *, 'incut,when Congress could find noib'ivg; j else to occupy their thoughts with. On! [the lllh of that month, a despatch was] brought to Congress, that the enemy was advancing not much over a day’s march from Philadelphia, and the general action of Brandywine actually began before night that same day; yet the most noticeable item of business on the journal of Congress for tbat day is a report on the subject of j supplying the countty with Bibles, llteon ] ly alternative proposed being the importa tion of types and suitable paper for an edi ] Lion of thirty thousand copies, at an esti mated cost (>110,2721 10s., with consider able hazard and delay, or the purchase a-1 broad of books already made. “The use ] ofthe Bible,” says the committee, “is so! universal, and its importancesogreat, that; that your committee refer the above to the; consideration ol'Congress, and if Congress: shall not think it expedient Poorder the' importation of types and paper, the Com-] mitloe recommend that Congress will or-; der the Committee of Commerceto im-l port twenty thousand Bibles from Holland Scotland, or elsewhere, into the different j ports oft lie States ofthe Union.” “Where-] upon,” continues the journal, “it was mo-' veil that the Committee of Commerce he directed to import twenty thousand copies ofthe Bible,” which was determined in the affirmative by a vote of more than two to one of all the delegates, and about three itooneof those then present. In 1752 was published the first American edition of the Bihle. A memorial on the subject by the publisher, Robert Aitkin, was pre sented to Congress in 1731, which was re ferred to a committee. Their report, in j which they speak of having given their i personal attention to the progress of the ! work—the modest but commendatory re ! port of the chaplain ofCongress, under the direction of that Committee, or rather in conformity to this eainast request, scruti nized the accuracy of the printing—and the action of Congress thereon, are spread upon the journal for September 12, 1752. The result was a resolution of Congress, recommending the edition to the inhabi tants of the United States, and authorizing the publisher to publish their recommen dation iuthe manner which he might think proper.” ADVICE TO MAIDENS. That classical song which commences with “O take your time,Miss Lucy,” has proved very disastrous to young ladies who have been controlled by it. Every rhing is done iu a hurry in this world ; therefore get married as quickly as possi bl*. Husband* are like bird*, it you don’t bring them down at once, they are off. ] Love i* an idea: beef is a reality.— I The idea you can get along without; the I beef you must have. I>o not, then, allow 'any refined sentimentalism to interfere with what judicious and calculating pa rents call an advantageous settlement, i Young girls will have twinges of the heart-strings, we know, but these are like other complaints incidental to youth, they Igo awav suddenly without any bad ef fects. Dyspepsia often produces melan choly, which is attributed to disappointed .affections; but bran-bread and apple-sauce will speedily remove this complaint. Some girls have imaginations so lender that they believe themselves in love with every man who says a civil word to them. These unfortunate creatures should use the shower-bath every morning, and take frequent exercise on horseback. Romance should he confined to circu lating libraries and boarding schools; it is well enough in these places, but out of them it is sadly in the way. It is very apt to take bread and butter out of one’s mouth, and it is a curious fact in ‘physics,’] that though love causes the heart to swell, it never fills an empty stomach. If a man falls in love with you, instead of ascertaining the color of his eyes, find out the length of his purse; instead of! asking his age, get a list of his effects. 11] these make a goodly appearance, never] mind his looks, but conclude the bargain at once. You will learn to love him when you feel the necessity of such a passion. In the meantime endure him. There used to be man}' Alonzos and Melissas in the world, and there was much misery in consequence. Now-a ilnys, people are more sensible. They have an eye to the real; they are matter of fact, and see more substantial comfort in a well-furnished home, than a dozen sonnets; more beauty in a bountifully sup plied table, than a score of love-letters. All this betrays a good deal of sound sense, which maiden’s would do well to profit by.— Noah's Messenger. RESEARCHES IN EGYPT. The Boston Transcript publishes the following interesting items, derived from i the private correspondence of Mr. Glici-! 'don, received by the last steamer. Dr. Lepsius with the Prussian eommis-i j sion was expected at Philos-—lst Cataract, —by tbe end of August, having tormina-] j ted those invaluable explorations of Ethi-] |opia that have reduced the fabled antiqui-] ty of Me role Monuments to intelligible limits, commencing about the 2-slh Dy nasty, nr 700 B. C. They had opened one of tiie Ethiopian Pyramids, and found a few unimportant relics of a modern dale. The Prussians will remain some six months at Thebes, to reinspect known hieroglyphieal data, and to make such corrections and additions as will probably {leave nothing above ground undetermin ed. When Thebes has been satisfactori ly concluded, they will descend to Cairo, iand execute Heliopolis, where the rise ol j the alluvial soil has covered immense re mains. Sometime next year the party will proceed to Syria and thence to Asia Minor, to search lor the tablets recording .the Asiatic victories of Sesostris, three of j which are known to exist. The Russian government had commen jced its labors among the tombs around the Pyramids of Memphis. They will (copy Egyptian monuments along (lie Nile ;up to the 2d cataract. Mens. Prisse, a [gentleman who has resided eighteen years ;in Egypt, the last ten of which have been .(Jeyoted to monumental researches, lias JbfcPgb* bas-reliefs of the famed gen ealogical .chamber of Karnae, to Paris, and presentee them to the French govern ment. The Sceti“ in this chamber rep resents Tliotmes B. (Rossellini’s Chro nology—B.C. 1740) Oi?eilog to fifty-eight of his Pharaonic predecessors, the ar rangement of which is yet a ,py?tery un solved. As the reward of the n.hofS of Mens. Prisse. the munificent French gov ernment is about to send liitn hack to tliCi valley of the Nile to prosecute his hiero iglyphical explorations fir three years— [and he was in London when the Acadia! I left, making preparations. 1 The French Royal Academy has pro-1 posed a gold medal for the best disserta-’ jtion on the Dynasties of Manetho, which ! will excite the keenest competition among ] hieroglyphieal savans; and great will be the ; laurels of time, who comes in second best. 1 The Syro-Egyptian Society of London 1 ] is in full activity, about to publish tablets, [ i inscriptions, &c. Tbe profound Sinalogue, Hierologist, j and universally erudite scholar, Birch, of; the British Museum, corresponding se cretary of the Archaeological Institute of! Rome, had completed his researches on! the language and writings of the Egyp tians; and, if Lepsius ami Panthier have) llie honor of" establishing wbat may be termed the ‘organic hiws’ of human pro-] gross in the art of writing, to Birch will] be the merit of determining the various ages of its advance in Egypt, from the! earliest pictorial sign to the introduction and exclusive adoption of purely alpha-! helical characters, such as we now use. Mr. Osborne, of Leeds, author of the “Antiquities of Egypt,” illustrative of the | sacred Scriptures, was progressing with his researches into early hieroglyphica! geography in elucidation of the Mosaic re cords. This subject has long formed the private study of Mr.Gliddon, who informs us that it opens a vast untrodden field of inquiry into ethnology, history and geo graphy. Mr.Gliddon’s occupations com pel him to defer the publication of his‘ own extensive collections of hierpglyphi- i cal names with the 10th chapter of Gen esis, offering strange confirmations of the science and accuracy of Moses, and he cordially hails a fellow-laborer in the same thorny, though intensely curious field. Mr. Bonoini having accompanied Ma homrned AH’s two sons in their visit to Paris, was expected in London to put forth his recent examinations of ancient »n.J modern Egypt. .»?r FaU ismi ■ JFinier o o n &.
