THURSDAY'S POST. LONDON, WEDNESDAY, lf! 22. PARIS Papers to the 5th inst. are received. The 3d, being the anniversary of the first return of the King to his Canital, was celebrated by public re- joicings. His Majesty drove in an open carriage through the most public streets", and ordered that his horses should walk, instead of galloping, which for some time had been their onlv pace. when he took an airing. The National Guard alone attended him, and did the service of the Pa- lace, and expressions of lovalty are said to have burst from the people wherever the Monarch appeared. Meanwhile the work of conflagration is carried on with- out cessation in the Provinces. ' A large village in the vi- cinity of Dreux having been set on fire on 1st inst. the Ma- gistrates and the military firemen of that city repaired to the spot, but scarcely had thev begun to assist the inhabi- tants when they were informed that another village, a few miles distant, was in flames. Forty houses were destroyed in the former before the flames could be subdued ; but the extent of the damage done in the latter had not vet been ascertained. " Conflagrations," says the Journal des Debats, " continue to desolate'the Department of Somme. On the 20th of April, thev broke out in the Commune of Thois. and consumed nine houses; and the next day 17 houses were burnt down in the Commune of Daours." The Constitu'tioncl expresses much astonishment that the perpetrators of these , offences should never be discovered. ' Forty- seven cases, containing arms, have lately been seized by the Gendarmerie at Liboume. ' The Moniteur of Saturday, under the head of Russia, con tains a justification of the last Tariff on the foreign com- merce of that empire. The reasoning of this article is . just, though'its conclusions mav be considered as injurious to us. It states, that " the object of its former commercial Ukases was to give vigour to the principles of a free commerce, es- tablished by the acts of the Congress at Vienna;" but find- ing, in fact, all other nations endeavouring to favour the sale of their own productions, Russia was driven to the same course, unless she were content to open her ports to the commerce of all foreign nations, and at the same time suffer tiie ports of those nations to be shut against the productions of Russia! ,.,,•• The whole of St. Domingo is now under the dominion of Rover. The island is represented as remarkably improved, and rarrving on a great trade with America, underselling all the Other islands, and with articles of much better qua- lity, particularly suear. In the memory of man there was never so much damage done by storms as in the last winter. It is calculated that about ' 2000 ships and 20,001 men have perished on the seve- ral coasts of Europe, of which 250 ships and 2500 men were lost on the Danish coast alone. Prince Leopold has been detained much longer abroad than he intended, hv his attention to his mother during a severe illness. His Royal Highness is now on his way back to England. ; Monday evening the Dean and Chapter of St. Paul s, with the Archbishop of Canterbury, the Lord Chancellor, Lord Liverpool, Lord Sidmouth, the Marquis of Lansdown, the Bishop of London. Sir Charles Long, the Right Hon. N. Vansittart, the Marchioness of Lansdown, Miss Vansit- tart, and several ladies of distinction, visited the Cathedral of St. Paul's, on the occasion of its being first lighted with gas. The effect was most strikingly beautiful; the improve- ments and embellishments lately made in this noble edifice appeared to particular advantage; and the brilliancy and gran- deur of the scene called for. the repeated expressions of sa- tisfaction from the company. St. Pancras New Church was on Tuesday consecrated by the Lord Iiishop of London ; it is built on a model of the ancient Temple of Erectheus at Athens, and the steeple from all Athenian model, the " Temple of the Winds :" the pews are of oak, and calculated to hold 2400 persons .; cata- combs are constructed under the church, to contain upwards of 3000 coffins. jfrom 5th Jan. .1701, to 15th Feb. 1819, when the ports last closed against the importation of foreign wheat, there were imported into Great Britain 15,192,748 quarters, being EAST INDIES.- Accounts have been received from Cal- cutta, of an action having taken place on the 1st October, between a portion of our troops stationed in Rajpootana. and, the military force of the Cotah Rajah, whose conduct has lately rendered it ne- cessary for the British authorities there tn interfere in behalf of Salim Sing, the officiating manager of that part of the country. The contest was desperate, and two of our officers fell on the spot, Lieuts. Clarke and Reade. Major Ridge was wounded bv a sabre in the head, had his orderlies killed, one valuable horse killed, and another desperately wounded. Two guns were taken, with a great deal of baggage, and the whole encampment as it stood. Many of the enemy's chiefs also fell in the engagement; hut their loss was not as it would have been, had not the movements of our force been cramped hv the irregulars. The loss on our side is stated at 13 killed, and 22 wounded. DISTRESS IN IRELAND.— A Meeting, most numerously and respectably attended, was held yesterday, at the City of Lon- don Tavern, to take into consideration the . best means of alleviat- ing the distress of the poor in Ireland, arising from the present scarcity of food in that country. T. Wilson. Esq. M. P. was in the chair, who briefly stated the object of the present meeting. Resolutions were entered into and adopted for a subscription for the relief of the distressed provinces and districts in Ireland— Mr. Rowcroft read over the names of those who have so promptly come forward with their subscription, amongst whom were the Arch- bishops of Canterbury and York, Earls of Liverpool and Blessing- ton, Mr. Vansittart, and Mr. Peel, 200/. each ; Marquis of Hert- ford, 300'.; several bankers and other mercantile persons, 100/. each ; and the whole amount subscribed was considerable. Dur- ing the proceedings, Mr. Rowcroft stated that a lady, whose name he' wished concealed, shipped four tons of potatoes and 10 barrels of herrings, to be landed at the first port in Ireland,— Mr. Mahon offered the heartfelt thanks of his country to that great City whi.- h had banqueted Emperors, and relieved the starving Russian, the ravaged Germany, and plundered Poland, stretching, forth her ha'xl to relieve Ireland, who had fought with her, and, bad she fallen, would have shared in her destruction. It was gratifying to find that there was no political or religious feeling mixed up with this. He hoped that England and Ireland would long run in the race of glory, the admiration of the world, and the envy of sur- rounding nations Mr. C. Grant, M. P. said, that last autumn the poor people might be seen taking np their potatoes in boats, as if'they had been dredging for oysters; such was the wet state of the ground ; and they were now encroaching on their seed po- tatoes. He was glad to find that the state of Ireland was daily gaining increased interest in British feelings— Sir E. O'Brien said, the potatoes when sown, were dug up and eaten : if suffer- ed to remain in the ground, the people must starve; and if eaten, what was tn become of them. Other subscriptions were then read; when the Chairman said, the business of the day was now over. ILLUSTRATED AND IMPROVED BIBLES, TESTAMENTS, and COMMON PRAYER- BOOKS.

CHAS. NEWMAN, Stroud, April 20, 1822. Clerk to tiie Trustees. Friday night, 28th April, Mr. Hooper, of Pile Marsh, near Bristol^ had his stable broken open, and three valuable horses stolen thereout. On the following morning, in com- pany with another person, he pursued the robbers, having received intelligence of their route, and near Uxbridge, in Middlesex, he overtook them, and was fortunate enough to recover his horses and to secure one of the thieves: the other escaped, but as his person is well known to Mr. H. there is every reason to expect that he will be soon apprehended. At Lincoln horse fair, there was as usual a great atten- dance of pick- pockets, and we regret to sav, a very respect- able jobber, named Newton, of Holbeach, Fen- Ends, became a severe sufferer, having his pocket- book stolen, containing no less a sum than 1800/. The poor man did not diicover the theft till he had drawn his purchases in sheep, and was pro- ceeding to deliver cash for 600 head, when he found out his shocking loss. A reward of 200/. was shortly after adver- tised, by hand- bills, for a return of the money ( if found,) but the finders have got of undiscovered. A cruel robbery was committed on Sunday last. Sir. and Mrs. Bowles, the unfortunate persons whose child and sister were killed by the fall of one of the houses in Budge- row lately, and wno were themselves dreadfully bruised in the ruins, determined to attend the body of their infant to the grave on Sunday. It was with great difficulty they hobbled to a neighbouring church- yard, where the funeral was per- formed. They were objects of great compassion to the mul- titude, but there were persons m the crowd base enough to take advantage of their absence from home, and break into their apartments, which were soon stripped of every thing Valuable, before the two poor sufferers reached home. It is supposed that the thieves expected to find a great booty, a report having got into circulation that 300/. tne property of Mr. Bowles, had been found in the ruins. The money that had been found, however, proved te be the property of ano- ther person. All the little articles of plate which were re- covered from the ruins,' and . which were the only things of any value remaining to the unfortunate couple, were taken by the thieves.

DISTRESS— Previous to the resumption of the Agricultural Committee, Mr. Wyvll moved an an amend- ment to the order of the day, a resolution, that " the only effective mode of giving relief to the agriculturists would be by a reduction of taxation." This resolution he prefaced by a declaration, that the scale of reduction from which relief was to be expected, was not less than 20,000.000 annually— The Chancellor of the Exchc- quer observed, that it was generally supposed that those who voted for a motion, did so in the sense of the mover, unless they added the explanation of their particular motives. Ha thought, there- for-. those who voted for the motion, without dissenting from the explanation of the mover, were supporting ruinous and revolu- tionary principles— After some further discussion, the House di- vided, when Mr. Wyvil's amendment was rejected by a majority of 83, there being 37 for, and 120 against lU Th<- House then went into a Committee upon the Report, and Mr. Benett ( of Wilts) opened the discussion by a long and able speech in recommendation ct his plan. . Mr Cripps thought the present one of the most interesting ques- tions that had ever been submitted to Parliament. The House, how- ever, lud only a choice of evils. He freely admitted that a reduc- tion of taxes would be advantageous to agriculture. But tho t » , a quarter had been taken off malt, the price of barley, had gfjlflfe Martini's ^"' Londonderry wanted it. If it were fixed at 70s. or 75f. it would, in his opinion, be sufficient for all purposes. Every thing should be done that could be accomplished to relieve the distress j but he hoped that, if Parliament could not do all it wish- ed, the public would be satisfied with its anxiety to do all that it could for the benefit of so many conflicting interests. He be- lieved tlie distress to be quite as great as it had been described. Sail e persons denied this, and stated, that when they had estates out of lease, individuals w ere ready to take them. This, however, was no argument at all: it proved nothing, because persons hap- pening to have money to spare, were tempted to lay it out in land, on account of the low price at which they could purchase, and the cheup rate at which they could stock it. Suppose, however, a man took a farm, when wheat produced 8J. or Us. a bushel, what must he his situation, when, ss was the case last year, it only brought from 4i. to 4s. 5J. per bushel ? The value of meat was reduced in a still greater proportion. Cattle formerly produced Id. and id. per lb.; they were now sold at 3c'. Siti and the highest id. per lb. How was it possible then, that the farmer could go on with half the old price', and, he would add, with an extremely bad crop ? for the crop last year was nothing like an average crop. Under such untoward circumstances, it was impossible that the farmers could pay their rent. Mr. Bankes entered into a review of the arguments of former speakers. He denied that the distress of the country originated entirely in taxation— it was caused by a variety of circumstances, lie controverted the doctrine, that the cultivator of land, if he could not obtain a remunerating price, might withdraw his capi- tal and employ it otherwise. This was not in his power, and CONTRACT FOR CHEESE.

WHEREAS ROBERT LANE, of Stratton. in the r county of Gloucester, Farmer, has conveyed and assigned his real and personal Estate, unto Daniel Sparks, of Circncester, Surgeon, and John Norris, of Stratton aforesaid, Gentleman, for the benefit of his Creditors, Notice is hereby given, that the Deed Is now lying at the Office of Mr. Whatley, Solicitor, Cirencester, where all the Creditors of the said Robert Lane, who have not al- ready executed the same, are requested to call for that purpose, on or before the 8th day of June next, or they will be excluded the be- nefit of the Dividend. And. all Persons indebted to the said Ro- bert Lane, are requested forthwith to pay the amount of their re- spective Debts to the said Mr. Whatley, or they will be sued for the same without further notice Cirencester, May 10, 1822. therefore Parliament was bound to protect them as far as possible. Lord Althorpe urged the necessity of doing something for the landed interest, and that immediately. As to raising the price of corn, he was persuaded it could not be done. Let us look to the situation of Monmouthshire and Staffordshire, and then say whe- ther the state of the labourers in those counties was such as would permit of any advance of price in the necessaries of life, at least of any such advance as would benefit the grower. Sir T. Lethbridge briefly replied to some of the arguments brought forward against his proposition. He contended, that if the trade was to bo protected at all, the duties he had proposed were necessary; a free trade altogether would be preferable to adopting any lower duties; and it would he for the House to dis- cuss whether this was a period at which the system of a free trade could be adopted His Resolutions, hecontended, were calculated to give that immediate relief so imperiously necessary. Much had been said or going back to the standard- of 1792 ; but such a thing was impossible, if Gentlemen would consider that taxes had more than doubled since that time. The Marquis of Londonderry said, that some measure must be adopted to give relief to the distress under which the Agricultu- rist was labouring. He conceived that he was bound to attend to the recommendation of the Agricultural Committee, and it was ab- solutely necessary to preserve the import price as recommended by them. He wished to hold the balance between the two interests. In all common years 70s. would be a sufficient protecting duty. It would be most convenient to proceed with the highest duty proposed, which was that of the Member for Somersetshire. The House then divided— for Sir T. Lcthbridge's motion 24, against it, 243; majority 210. During our exclusion, Mr. Be- nett's Resolutions ( as we understood) were negatived without a division. Mr. Huskisson then rose to mova his Resolutions, including two of Mr. Ricardo's; and Lord Althorpe rose to move an amend- ment; but the House becoming very clamorous for the question, the Chairman reported progress, and the House adjourned at two. THURSDAY.— Mr. Grenfell moved for an account of the number of Country Banks in England and Wales, distinguishing the firm of each Bank Mr. Bright seconded the motion. He onsidered the proposition for establishing Banks, consisting of an unlimited number of partners, as one of great importance. If this system was established, it would render the Bankrupt Laws of 110 effect, as regarded bankers, for as tile law now stood, it was neces- sary for the purpose of establishing a bankruptcy, that all the part- ners should be known, which, if this measure passed, would be both impossible and unnecessary— Mr. Grcnfell said, that objec- tion might be remedied by introducing a provision into the Bill to make it sufficient to prove against one partner, or to make the Se- cretary liable— Motion agreed to. Sir Thos. Lethbridge gave notice of a motion on 30th inst. on tho subject ofthe unequal pressure of Taxation on the Landed Interest, particularly with respect to the Parochial and County Ratea. The debate upon the Resolutions for regulating the importation of Foreign Corn, was resumed. The rejection, on the previous right, of the Resolutions proposed severally by Sir T. Lethbridge and Mr. Benett, enabled the House to bring its reasoning powers with more concentrated force to the two questions which should properly occupy its attention :— First, Whether the system of to- tally excluding foreign corn until the price shall have risen to a certain average price, ought to be preferred to a free trade, subject to duties; and second, What ought to be the extent specified in money, to which protection, in either of these modes, ought to be carried ?— The Marquis of Londonderry, as the organ ot the Ag- ricultural Committee, supported the project of total exclusion un- til the price shall rise to a certain average— Mr. Lockhart denied that the Noble Lord had made his calculations fairly upon the average price of corn. He was sure that the agricultural interests must be relieved, or > he public credit would not remain secure; and the only method, in his opinion, was a reduction of taxation. He did not mean such a reduction as would injure the public cre- dit. He would ndvise the Noble Lord to give such protection to the farmers as they believed would protect them, or they might be driven to act like men who saw ruin before their eyes— The Com- mittee divided on Mr. Ricardo's resolutions— for them 25, against them 213; majority 193. The remaining resolutions were then negatived, with the ex- ception of the second of Lord Londonderry's, which was carried by a majority of 182. After being excluded for near two hours, strangers were again admitted, anil we found the Committee engaged in discussing tha remaining Resolutions of the Noble Lord, which were adopted without divisions— The Marquis of Londonderry then intimated, that wiili respect to h:. s resolution, relating to the grinding of fo- reign corn, it was not his intention to submit any proposition— Mr. Ricardo thought this resolution ought to be put, as tin case of the holders of foreign corn was extremely hard. He contended, that they ought to be allowed to grind under certain regulations, imt a) he saw tha sense of the Committee to be against him, he would not press any motion.

YESTERDAY, at Carlton- House, his Majesty was graciously pleased to invest Sir George Nayler, Knight, Garter Principal King of Arms, with the gold chain and badge appertaining to the said office of Garter— Gazette. The Prince and Princess of Denmark are expected _ in town this evening, and Warwick House has been got in complete readiness for their reception. The death of the Lord Primate of Ireland, announced In our 1st page, was occasioned by the accidental administering of a bottle of laudanum, instead of medicine. The accounts received from Ireland this morning are exceedingly afflicting, in every point of view, both as to hunger and disorder. Such has been tbe prompt and spontaneous bene- volence of the British Public in the Metropolis, that nearly 20,000/. have been subscribed for the suffering Irish in four days, and the list is rapidly augmenting. At Camberwell, the Ladies have opened a subscription among themselves, their children, and their servants, which in no instance is to exceed half- a- crcwn, but admits the smallest donations. It is remarkable, that the Archbishops of Armagh and Cashel, both died on the same day. The patronage thus given to Ministers is very considerable, as the Irish Sees are even more lu- crative than those in England. In the House of Lords, last night, Lord Darnley moved an Address relative to the distresses in Ireland, with a view to as- certain what steps had been taken by Government upon the sub- ject Lord Liverpool stated, that Government had not been inat- tentive cither to the present distress or the necessity of providing for the future harvest— The motion was rejected. The House of Commons was chiefly occupied with the debate upon Mr. Canning's Bill for admitting Catholic Peers into Parliament. The Marquis of Londonderry, Mr. Canning, Mr. Peel, and Mr. Wetherell were the principal speakers ; the motion for the second reading was carried by 285 to 223 ; majority 12.

On Friday, the Gloucester Troop of Yeomanry Cavalry, commanded by Capt. Mountain, completed their period of train- ing and exercise for four days. The Monmouth County Meeting, held at Usk, on Fri- day last, was very respectably attended; when a Petition to both Houses of Parliament, praying for a • abolition of all sinccures and unmerited places and pensions, and a reduction of such taxes as most materially affected the Agricultural interest, was unani- mously agreed to. A Meeting was held on Thursday last at the Guildhall, Bath, for promoting a subscription for the Relief of the Suffering Poor in Ireland ; at which we observe from the sums already ad- vertised, that upwards of 500/. has been subscribed. We are requested respectfully to inform the Committees of the. Branch Societies and Bible Associations, that the Accounts of the Gloucestershire Auxiliary Bible Society will be made up, as usual, on the 31st inst. on which day or before, it will be neces- sary that all payments for the current year should be made either to the Treasurers or Secretaries of the said Society. Earl Grosvenor, whose princely property in mines is well known, is reported to have sustained a loss of £ 100,000. bythede- falcation of & confidential Agent, who is said to have quitted this kingdom. The apple and pear- trees in most situations in this coun- ty presented during the last week a flattering promise of a full crop, particularly the latter, which never exhibited a finer blossom : but for the last few days a strong blight has been prevalent, which pro. bably has greatly injured the early apple- trees. The backward Ones, however, may escape the visitation, and sanguine hopes are still entertained of a considerable produce. The pear- trees, we fear are seriously damaged by the blight Hereford Journal. On Monday, a person was convicted before the Mayor of Worcester, in the mitigated penalty, of!/. 12. r. 6d. for receiving and taking two apprentices from a neighbouring parish, without the consent of two Magistrates having been first obtained to the putting out such apprentices, agreeably to the terms of 5Bth Geo. III. c. 33. Job Guest and John Brittle, found guilty at Worcester Assizes of a burglary at Beoly, committed under atrocious circum- stances, and left for execution, have been liberated from prison, it having been deemed by the higher powers that their guilt was not so conclusively manifest as to warrant the carrying the sentence into execution. STEAM PACKETS IN BRISTOL CHANNEL— The St. Pa trick Steam Packet, from Ltverpol to Bristol, via Dublin, arrived in Cumberland Basin on Friday morning. This vessel, which is of the most beautiful construction, and completely fitted up in every department for safety and accommodation, we understand, left Dublin at half- past two on Wednesday afternoon, reached Wexford in about six hours, called at Tenby for passengers, and arrived in Kingroad by eight o'clock on Thursday evening ; thus completing her voyage from Dublin, against wind and tide, in less than 30 hours. She sailed again Saturday morning, arid is to continue weekly to make the same voyage to and from Liverpool. The Steam Packet, George the Fourth, arrived at Bristol on Friday evening, from Cork, having performed the passage in fine style, although she had to contend with a contrary wind. The Bristol Cambrian Steam Packet arrived at New- port on Tuesday morning, about eleven o'clock, after a pleasant voyage of three .'. ours, with a large party of ladies and gentlemen. It being understood that she was to take her departure at four o'- clock, great numbers assembled on the banks of the river to wit- ness her manoeuvres, and were highly gratified by an order given to tbe Captain to run her up to tbe Bridge, where she went round in a masterly stile, and after receiving some passengers, took leave. We understand it is intended, that she shall run to and from New- port and Bristol daily— a conveyance which will be a great accom. modation to Newport, as well as the whole trade of Monmouthshire. EXTRAORDINARY ACCIDENT— On Wednesday last, two men of the names of Wm. Ludlow and James Cooper, in the em- ploy of M . Budd, London Carrier, were killed between Minchin. hampton and Cirencester, about two miles from the latter place, the inhabitants of which were alarmed about midnight by persons who had found the bodies. Inquests were taken at Cirencester; when it came Out in evidence, that the drivers of two bread- carts, a Mr. Wilkinson, and the two unfortunate men, who were then in charge of a light waggon of Mr. Budd's, had drank five quarts of beer at tbe Beacon Tump public- house, six miles from Cirencester. They all left that place about a quarter before ten o'clock, the two carts before and the waggon last, A man who was proceeding from Ci- rencester to Stroud, met the carts and the waggon in the order stated, about a mile and a half from the former place, and half a mile further on, his horse was so much frightened as to oblige him to dismount, when he found, one of the dead bodies lying in the road, he applied at a cottage close by, and obtaining a light, the other body was discovered. The bodies were then removed to the side of the road, and the parties present went to Cirencester to give tiie alarm. The high- constable, with Mr. Warner, surgeon, and several other persons, immediately hastened to the spot, ex- amined the bodies, and had them removed to Cirencester. It appeared, that the bones of tbe neck of one of therti. were broken, and the head of the other was frightfully mangled, as if the wheel of a waggon or cart had passed over his face. A great sensation was excited, and the place where the bodies lay was thronged with people of all descriptions tbe whole of the day. Many rumours were afloat, and from the improbability of two men being killed at the same time and place, ( not 30 yards distant from each other,) Some persons were of opinion that the deceased were murdered. Thi- Coroner's jury assembled at eleven, and adjourned twice, for the purpose of receiving further testimony, The Magistrates, and most of the respectable gentlemen of the town and neighbourhood attended. The Coroner and Jury, and hundreds cf other persons, went to view the place wbere the bodies had been found j and it appearing that no other injury had been received, except as before stated, no robbery committed, and that the man who was going to Stroud had passed tile carts and the waggon within 15 minutes of the time when he found the bodies— a space of time too short for'such violence to have been committed— the jury, at nearly twelve o'clock at night, came to the conclusion, that the deceased must have fallen under the wheels, cither of the waggon they had in charge or of some other carriage, and found a verdict of Acci- dental Death in each case; 41 An APPEAL- in Christian Benevolence in behalf cf the Suffering IRISH POOR. " It is needless to make particular statements of the distress of these unhappy people, as most of the public prints describe it, and tbe authenticity of the accounts is beyond question. Some, ( we hope but few,) have actually died for want of food, and thousands must soon die from the same cause, if relief be not supplied ; not to mention that a fever, the consequence of want, has begun to at- tack them. A state bordering on famine is now experienced by them; and absolute famine itself will unavoidably ensue, if not prevented by the exertions and aid of Government, and by volun- tary beneficence. " Under present circumstances, when, with the exception of Ireland, the quantity of human food is every where so abundant, it is hoped that the horrors of famine, and much of tbe effects of severe and dreadful want, may be averted from these wretched creatures, now ready to perish ! But it. should seem that this can only be effected under Providence, by the great exertions and as- sistance of Government, ( which has already entered upon the work,) together with the prompt, ample, arid extensive contribution of individuals throughout the country. So vast are the numbers of tile Irish peasants who are, or are in danger of becoming, wholly without food, or the means of procuring it, that the sum total of private subscriptions to be of important effect, must be singularly great. Assistance also, to be availing, must be prompt. For in many parts, the potatoe crops of last year having, in a great degree, failed, the poor have no potatoes, ( their chief article of subsistance,) wherewith to crop the ground for the year ensuing, not having any even for present consumption. If therefore the supply of this frtiit of the earth, for planting, be not speedy, howhorrible their prospect! " The conduct of a great portion, we trust i. ot of the general body, of the Irish peasants has been, indeed, criminal, in the ex- treme ; marked by atrocities which no delusion, no suffering, ap- prehended or actual, could excuse. But starvation, famine,— these are among those fearful extremes in the scale of human evils which the very best of men are in duty bound to avert, if possible, from the very worst. And let us repeat our trust, that the general body of the Irish peasantry have not shared in crime. And if, ( which however we cannot for a moment suppose,) the guilt of fathers were not, amidst the horrible distress which has succeeded, to be for the time forgotten, yet their infant and youthful offspring claim pity unmingled with reproaeh. And there is a peculiar hardship in the present case, which adds some Weight in the scale of compassion, towards counterbalancing that of moral indignation. If any tiling can aggravate the horrors of a starving wretch, it is to feel that he TI is perishing with hunger, in the sight, and in the midst, as it were, of plenty; to reflect that the rest of mankind • have bread enough and to spare.' nay, are in the possession of unusual abundance- while he and his little ones famish. The frightful term " starving" has sometimes been employ- ed, of late years, to give force to the sentiment of a speaker in Par liament or at public meetings. Hitherto, however, it has been used in a sort of figurative sense: it has merely indicated great want and distress. But now unhappily an occasion has arisen on which this appalling expression must strictly and literally be ap- plied. This, too, happens at a time when the prevailing abun- dance and cheapness of food throughout Europe makes the exist- ence of such an occasion, if possible, more painful for us to reflect on, than starvation unaccompanied by such an extraordinary fact. It is a shocking truth, that of the Irish peasantry some, ( we will hope the number very small,) have actually been starved to death. It is melancholy to think what may have occurred before the hand of beneficence can have been extended from this country. And it would be more painful still to reflect what must inevitably oc- cur, should be leficence not be held out to them upon a large and noble scale. But that pain is diminished by the confidence, that such a signal case of distress and of dangercannot fail to call forth most, extensively the contributions of the benevolent. In fulfilling which, the very first of human duties, that of saving from death those who are perishing with hunger, there cannot be a doubt that the inhabitants of Gloucester anil its vicinity will worthily per- form their part." " We feel confident, that the above appeal will have its due effect, and that the subscription which has already been opened in thiscity, amounting to nearly 120/. will be greatly increased by the active benevolence and philanthropy of our fellow- citizens. The horrible situation of the poor Irish calls for instant relief to make it effectual. Cargo after cargo of potatoes, rice, and other necessa- ries should be sent from the ports of England to. the ports of Ire- land nearest tbe greatest distress," and the food distributed there, as a free donation from England Promptitude in such a mea- sure may save many lives— conciliate many a mind— and lay a foundation for a better understanding in a country near and dear to every Englishman. A subscription is also opened at Monmouth. RIOTS IN MONMOUTHSHIRE In our last we stated the safe arrival of the greater part of a convoy of coal- waggons, under the protection of the Scots Greys and Yeomanry, at the place of its destination, on Thursday week ; but we are sorry to be now compelled to add, that notwithstanding the number of rioters wounded, and some very severely, others of them during the night destroyed or disabled about twenty waggons which ( deserted by tbe halliers in the course of the day) had been left near the Mon- mouthshire Canal Company's reservoir at Lanhilleth: four of these, with their contents, were rolled over tbe precipice, and dashed into the river below ; others were sunk in the reservoir, and the wheels of about fourteen more broken to pieces on the road. Not content, however, with these depredations, the coals ( more than two tons in each waggon) were set on fire, and, with every thing combustible about the waggons, totally consumed, some of the great masses of fire continuing to burn till Monday morning. Whilst this was effecting in the valley above Crwmlin, another body of rioters, in tbe night of Sunday or early on Monday morn- ing, attacked and destroyed, in several places above the 18 mile- stone, nearly half a mile of the Sirhowey tram- road, situated in the paralleled valley leading up to Tredegar Iron Works; not only were the iron plates ripped up and carried away, but the stoneblocks raised and rolled down into tbe river ; and in order to prevent a further supply being sent up, this fine public work, from which the country ( and no portion of it more than the workmen themselves) have derived such great advantages, was thus feloni- ously destroyed. Great numbers of tlie work- people have, how. ever, since been employed upon the road, and we are_ happy to learn that it is, by great exertion, already restored to its former state of usefulness and repair. A letter from Abergavenny, dated Saturday evening, says, that " every thing is at present tolerably quiet on the hilla; but the men have not yet returned to their work." Henry Lewis, basket- maker, of the parish of Lanhilleth, has been committed to Usk Gaol, by J. H. Moggridge, Esq. for as- saulting and threatening to kill a constable of Lanhilleth, for obey- ing the orders of the Rev. W. Powell, a Magistrate of the county of Monmouth, on the 2d of this month, when the attack was made on the coal waggons, near Crwmlin. The pernicious practice of desertion of farms by the tenants is unhappily multiplying in Monmouthshire, with the in- crease of distress. A farmer on a considerable farm in the parish of Monythusloyne, not only deserted his farm, but drove off his stock by night, consisting of 191 sheep. 3 cows, 5 oxen, 1 three- year- old heifer, 3 yearling heifers, 2 yearling steers, besides horses and colts, which was however overtaken by his landlord, and sold by auction on Monday last. The four- year. old oxen sold for BU the pair, the three- year- olds for bl. the pair. The wether sheep could not be sold at Fts. 6d. a head, and were bought in at that price, on account of the landlord, as were the yearling sheep at 2i. 6d. a piece, and the ewes and lambs at, 5i. a couple.

AT a MEETING of the GENERAL COMMITTEE of MANAGEMENT for the Petitioners, held here this day, at which Persons specially deputed for the occasion from the several Counties of Suffolk, Derby, Bucks, Dorset, Gloucester, Kent, Oxford, Worcester, and Hants, also attended, It was una- nimously and respectfully represented to the County and other Members who honoured such Meeting with a Conference, " That, in the opinion of this Meeting, the Report of the Select Commit- tee of the House of Commons, as far as it regards the Regulations on which Corn is proposed to be imported into these Kingdoms, will afford no Protection to Agriculture, but on the contrary will tend still more to depress it." The following arc the REASONS on which the Committee of Ma. nagement, and Gentlemen deputed, came to the above Resolution: lr it should be asked, what is the measure which the Agricul- turists think will relieve them ? Reply— An efficient protecting duty, that is, such a duty which will enable them to meet the foreign Corn in the market on equal terms. _ That duty must be measured by the cost of cultivation, including labour, seeds, the decent maintenance of a family, the operation of indirect taxes, a moderate interest on capital, and some rent for the' proprietor. The Agriculturists are of opinion that foreign Corn might be admitted at all times into this country, with advantage to the con- sumer, and without injury to the home growers, PROVIDED, that at all times, such duties were in force, as would secure to such growers a competition, on equal terms, in the market, which would get rid of the delusive and fallacious system of. Averages, only cal- culated to deceive both the importers and native growers. That this principle applies, and is necessary, to every other pro- duction of the soil. Ir it should be asked what consequenccs tlie Agriculturists an- ticipate, if their views should not be carried into effect ? The Answer is, in the Earl of Liverpool's words, on a former representation to him on this subject, " a convulsion in the coun- try :" for they know that cultivation cannct be carried on, and so the poor neither employed nor maintained, who soon will become seditious and rebellious; whilst the occupiers of land will neither possess influence nor force to repress this disposition. IF it should be asked how the Land owners will be affected ? The Answer is,— They must abandon their residences, and put down t'neir establishments: and this will be the common case with the nobility, clergy, ar. d gentry; and their consumption of excise- able articles, and their portion of assessed taxes, must materially decrease ; their moral and political influence must also cease. IF it should be asked what will be the effect on the Home Trade, that is, the Shopkeeper ? It may boldly be asserted that the complaint not only of the want of trade, but of payment for past credit, is universal. IF asked from what appearances it is stated that the Cultivators will not be able to employ or maintain the Poor ? The Answer is,— If enquiries be made in the county of Suffolk and tile neighbouring counties, it will be found that men arc paid in money 1*. only per week, the remainder in meal and potatoes ; consequently they have ceased to be consumers of exciseable arti- cles ; and when meal cannot be afforded maintenance must cease. IF it be affirmed the Poor Rates have decreased,— The Answer is,— The rates have decreased as to the numerical amount, but the number of paupers is increased. The numerical amount is decreased, because the allowance to the poor is calcu- lated on the costof bread, and that is diminished nearly one half in price, though not equal to the fall in the price of corn ;— add to this, the vast increase of surplus labourers, uselessly employed, and called Roundsmen, does not appear on the parish books, and so is not returned to Parliament.

JOHN HEATH, and Co. Proprietors, Coach Southgate- Street, 01puMSt « t, s I r the supposed prosperity of the Manufacturers he adverted to,— The Answer is,— They are for a_ time living on the ruin of the cultivators, giving low wages, the farmer finding bread at a ru- inous loss. IF it is affirmed, that t'ne Agriculturists have had the monopoly' of the mark t for years past,— The Answer is,— That that was the intention of the law, but has not been its actual operation. Great frauds have been committed in averages and illicit importation, and the glut of importation of corn in the years 1818 and 1819, was equal to what might have been expected to have been imported in three years and a half; and agriculture has not, nor can as yet recover from it, for it is still in the market,— or, if consumed, has left behind a vast surplus of English and Irish grain, which is the same thing. IF it is asked, will that effect cease, when all this Grain shall have been consumed ? Answer,— No; because, as the law now stands, the same recur- rence of excess of importation may take place. IF it- is asked, why tlftf new scale of duties proposed in the Re- port are rejected by the Agriculturists ? Answer,— Because, whenever the ports are opeii, foreign corn may be sent in at a less price than it can be grown here. EXAMPLE. Average cost price of foreign wheat in London, 35r. per quarter to 40 Proposed duty 12— 52 Whereas the minimum it can be grown for here is 80r. per quarter. Advantage to foreign com over English 28r. per quarter, even with a duty of 12*. per quarter. So that the English farmer must be driven out of the market, or consent to lose 28*. per quarter, even after payment of the pro- posed duty of 12J. and then by what means is lie weekly to find motley to pay the labourer ?— Rent is out of tile question. IF it is asked,— Is it the Agriculturists' object to raise prices, or to procure high prices ? Answer.— Their object is, first, to arrest the present destructive depreciation ; to procure that sale fur their produce which now they have not; to enjoy the market of their own country on, at least, equal terms with all the World, and, so to be enabled to sell at prices the lowest that such a state of things will then best enable them to offer their produce for: thus to be enabled to pay taxes and support the Government,— and they solemnly declare, that, without being themselves supported, they can do neither. IF asked, if they reject the proposal of Government coming into the market and purchasing Corn, or advancing money on credit ? The Answer is,— No ; they do not object, but that can afford only a momentary relief; and for other ulterior consequences un- der the present system they cannot answer. IF asked, if they object to permitting foreign bonded Corn from being taken out of the warehouses, and ground here into flour for exportation ? Answer,— Yes; they do object, because it would be fraudu- lently made into bread here, and no regulations could prevent it; besides, it would encourage speculators to expect hereafter a simi- lar relief, if their corn remained any time in bond, and so induce them to import more than otherwise they would be inclined to do. IF it should be suggested, that the Agriculturists formerly con- sidered 80 » . per quarter as the minimum at which they could grow Bread Corn, and now rent and wages being decreased, they still insist on the same minimum of 80j. The Answer is,— They did not say UOJ. was the minimum ; the Parliament fixed 80s. against their views of the question. They now do think BOJ. is the minimum, if the Proprietor is to receive any fair rent from his Tenants. IF it b » affirmed that wheat cannot be delivered in London, on an average of years, at from 3S » . to 40i. per quarter. The Agriculturists Reply,— That depends entirely on the open- ing or shutting of the British Ports, AND NOT o?( the cost of pro- duction in any of the exporting countries of Europe i in all of which wheat may be produced and delivered in London, on an average of years, at less than 40*. per quarter; except when their market price is influenced by the prices of Mark Lane, and this difference of price constitutes tiie « - eaiih and profit of the foreign growers and importers, purchased at the expence of British Agriculture, and the sacrifice of British industry; whose uncertain climate, and cost of production in the superior condition and - « ages of Iter pea- santry, together with the taxes payable on a residence in this coun- try, will not, on an average ofyears, permit the growers to render their wheat * t less than 8U*. per quarter; and on . the truth or false- hood of these respective propositions, viz. that 40*. per quarter • will cover the average maximum cost of production for wheat., ( the British market being dormant) in all the exporting countries of Europe,— and that in Great Britain 80*. per quarter, is the mini- mum at which wheat can be produced on an average of years,— the Petitioners are content to rest their claims to a 40s. duty on import. The Petitioners discover a ray of hope cf ultimate security in the Report, by observing a perfect recognition, indeed they may say, an unqualified admission of the principle for which they have been hitherto so long contending in vain, viz. THAT THE AGRI- CULTURE OF THIS COUNTRY CANNOT BE. MAINTAINED WITHOUT DUTIES; and whatever may be the . quantum of duty adnii. ted by the Legislature in the present Session to be sufficient for this purpose, they are satisfied tlwt u very little more EXPE- RIENCE of the EFFECT of importing any the productions of our Soil ujion the Agriculture and Industry of this Country, with- out adequate Duties, will convince the most incredulous, that no. thing short of the whole scale of duties which they have humbly submitted to the Select Committee, will be adequate and sufficient for the purpose: as practical and experienced men, if they have any doubt upon the subject, it is. that such Duties may not at all times be found sufficient for the end proposed ; for they have been often tauntingly threatened with inundation by importers, even in defiance of the duties they propose. The Committee of Petitioners cannot conclude these observations, without humbly and most respectfully, but very confidently sub- mitting to the. Legislature, that, all the provisions of the Report of the Select Committee are insufficient and inadequate for the pur- pose ;— That the system proposed cannot work well, and the wheel of British Agriculture cannot go round under such provisions. If, however, contrary to tbeir experience and judgment, it shall be found to answer the end proposed, and the Agriculture of the coun- try shall be found to maintain itself under these provisions, they will be the first to acknowledge the superior discernment of its projectors, and applaud their resolution ; but, on the contrary, if it fail, they trust their pretensions to foresight and experience in this great question, will be established by their having foretold, from the commencement of the opening of the ports, all the cala- mities that have Sin. ce happened, which they predicted as the con- sequence of such a measure upon every branch of industry in the United Kingdom; and that they may tbeu tsyov the credit of hav- ing peMeverinjjlj' U! wuit4 » s^ rt then. rpr ' | TO be LET, and entered upon on the 94th day of June, A. 1822,— BEAUCHAMP LODGE, a genteel ready furnished House, fit for the residence of a genteel Family, with Coach Houses, Stables, a good Garden, and l. awn in front of the House, well planted with ornamental trees and shrubs, and upwards of22 acres of good Grass Land, part weii planted with excellent cider anil table fruit trees, now in full bearing.

GRIMM's GHOST.— No. VIII. [ From the New Monthly Magazine.] My letter before the last exhibited Captain Augustus Thackeray, in all his embroidery, preparing to partake ot' Mr. Culpepper's repast, at the residence of the latter in Savage Gardens. " Been to the Opera lately ?" inquired the elegant stranger of Mrs. Cul- pepper, in a toire of such decided recitative, that I would lay an I'ven wager upon its having been modelled upon part of the di- alogue of Il TurCo in Italia. Luckily the tremulous lady of the mansion was prevented from answering the question, by an ex- clamation of " Dinner, Jack, directly !" from the hungry lips of her impatient spouse, which gave the Captain time to forget that be had propounded it. The slayer of men now conducted himself according to the laws of Ton, in that case made and provided. He first planted himself with his back to the fire, with either leg sprawled out, like a pair of animated compasses; he next drew from his sabre- tash a snuff- box, which he deposed to having pur- chased in the Palais Royal. To drive away the particles of Prin- ce's mixture, which had impertinently planted themselves upon his mustachios, producing a prolonged sneeze, he drew from the same receptacle a pocket- handkerchief of crimson silk : he then fixed his eyes upon a paper trap, which hung from the ceilitig, te catch flies, and partly whistled and partly sung " Sul Aria:" lib, finally, strolled toward the window, the edge of his sword- sheath, like the rattle of the American reptile, giving due notice of his lo- comotion : and, after surveying tile White Tower of Julius Cffisar and the foliage of Trinity square in momentary apathy, " my pretty page looked out afar" no longer; but, turning to Sir. Cul- pepper, said, " are these trees ?" wondering, as well he might, that the natives of these Hyper- Borean regions should have ac- quired the art of arborization. " Trees I yes," answered the ven- der of slops, " what should they be ? Oh, but I Suppose you don't approve of railing in and planting that part of Tower- hill." The elegant stranger gently inclined his head, which the interrogator mistook for acquiescence, and thus went o! l t " You are quite right; I never liked it: I held up my two hands against it in the vestry, but I was out- voted. Ah, Sir, in my time— when I was apprentice to old Frank Fit- out, the slop- seller in the Tenter- ground, that was all Tower- hill; smack- smooth as the palm of your hand: then there was something like going on. I've seen Doctor Bossy, the quack, there, upon a stage with a blue and white check curtain ( and I've seen a matter of ten boys at a time playing chuck- farthing; aye, and a matter of five sailors abreast singing ballads and playing fiddles. Ah! that was something like!" " Something like what ? inquired he of the sabre- tash, with eye lids dropping until their lashes almost met his musta- chios. old Culpepper found It difficult to establish a simile, that should accord with so many discount articles, and held his peace. There was something in the above harangue, short as it was, that was rather nauseous than otherwise to every one present: Mrs. Culpepper, who boasted her second- cousinship to a Serjeant, ( whe- ther at law or in the guards I have not been able to ascertain,) dis- liked the mention of old Frank Fit- out and the Tenter- ground ; - Miss Clara thought the objection to turning the hill into an in- closed square was meant as a Jiing at her rotatory flirtations with young Dixon in that hallowed sanctuary ; and George, whose de- termination to sink the shop probably originated in an honest aver- sion to shop- lifting, heard the word " slop- seller" from his father's lips wi- h that heart- sinking sensation which came across Blifil, vnen Ins uncle Alworthy asked him what he had done with his mother's letter. Then it was that the boy Jack opened the draw- ing- room door; and then it was that old Culpepper, concluding that he appeared to announce happiness, bawled out " Dinner, dinner."' and hunting every body before him, even as a Hamp- shire driver urges pigs, drove the whole herd down a steep stair- case into the dining- room. If nature had ordained man to feed upon napkins and horn- handled knives, the motion would have been most reasonable; for of aught else the table exhibited not the shadow. " What the devil's this ?" cried tiie master of the house to the footboy, with a look in which authority and dismay were mingled. " I went upstairs, Sir," answered the latter, " to tell you that dinner would be ready presently." " Presently 1" cried Culpepper, " psha! what signifies presently? however, since we are here, let us take our places: it will save time. Captain Thackeray, sit up by Madam ; Clara, sit you on this side of the Captain; I don't ask you, Sir, whether you mind the fire— it's your business, you know, to stand it: ha, ha, ha ! I beg pardon, but hunger sharpens wit; George, take your seat opposite. Well, now we look not a little like fools. This reminds nie of a most extraordinary circumstance which I would not miss telling for all the world. When I was apprentice to— But here comes dinner 1" The " hold, break we off," of Hamlet was never delivered in i- j awful a tone. The aforesaid Jack, tottering under a tureen, now made his appearance, followed by the housemaid Jane, in a white cap and apron, and a spotted calico gown, bearing the roast beef of the whole of Old England, if I might judge from its magnitude. To place these and other articles upon the table, over the shoulders of the sitters, required great delicacy of eye, united to great vigour of muscle. These opposite talents are seldom found united in one person. The consequence was, that in steering the beef over the shoulder of the shrinking dragoon, a slight driblet of gravy trickled down his right car and cheek, and finally rested upon that por- tion of his shirt collar, which, like the blinker of a coach- horse, effectually prevented him from starting at the beauty who had seated herself beside him. Hot anger mantled in the offended cheek, and for some minutes kept the liquid from coagulation. He, however, said nothing, and was helped to vermicelli soup. If men with glass windows should not throw stones, by parity of reasoning, men with mustachios should not swallow vermicelli soup. The valiant Captain made the attempt, and only in part succeeded; the liquor indeed went down his throat, but the ropy ingredients refused so to do, and wound themselves round his mustachios, his nostrils, and his chin- tuft, to the no small glee of the muster of the mansion. " Captain," cried the latter, " I don't dabble much in poetry, but I have read Monk Lewie's Alonzo and Imogine: I could swear I saw the spectrc before me— " The worms they crept In, and the worms they crcpt out, And sported his nose and his whiskers about, While the spectre addressed Imogine." u Jack ! do run to Seething Lane and bring back Bill Brim, the barber, with you. If the Captain is not shaved, my dinner will be saved, ha, ha, ha! I beg pardon, Captain, but I have not • wallowed a mouthful yet; and hunger sharpens wit." ( To he continued.) HOUSE OF LORDS- MONDAY. Earl Grey postponed his promised motion on the Agricultural Distress. He took the opportunity to animadvert in terms of great severity upon the Report of the Agricultural Committee of the House of Commons, and to arraign all the late measures of Minis- ters ; as well those which had received tile sanction of Parliament, as those which are in progress. His Lordship particularly alluded to the scheme of pretended relief to the agricultural interest, which it was understood Ministers had borrowed from the Committee; to the Dead Expenditure" arrangements, and the transactions with the Bank : in conclusion, ha remarked upon the inconsistency of tiie former declarations of Ministers, that taxes were no burden, with their present professed anxiety for reduction. The Earl of Liverpool replied by a defence of the measures thus impeached He said, Government had never expected that any legislative measure could give complete relief to agriculture, but tiiey had endeavoured to select the most efficient palliatives. Go- vernment taxation ( as distinguished from parochial taxation), he said, affected the agricultural population less than any other class, and therefore little advantage couid result to the agriculturists from any practicable reductions of the public taxes. To the taunt that Ministers were now acting inconsistently with former declarations, in defence of taxation, he replied by a denial of its truth. He iiim- self had always expressed an opinion that taxes were an evil less only than a violation of the public faith. With respect to the Bank, be could only lament the monopoly which thatCorporation enjoyed by its Charter; for as their right was indisputable, he could go no farther without the consent of the Proprietors, which they were not disposed to sell at a cheap rate. Joint Stock Companies had been so successful in Scotland, that there had hardly been a single bank- ruptcy among them ; while failures had been so frequent among the English Country Banks. The Marquis of Lansdowne moved for a copy of the Correspon- dence between Ministers and the Bank, regarding their Charter; which was agreed to. He was of opinion that the Bank of England would not issue a note the less after the Establishment of these Joint Stock Companies. A large sacrifice had been made to the Bank without any equivalent to the public. Earl Grey contended, that the Country Banks which remained were of established credit, and their issues sufficient for the wants rf the country. Ministers should have made better terms with the Fank; for in all former extensions of their Charter, the Bank had been obliged to give a sum of money for the public service; or else to advance a loan, on favourable terms to the country. This had riot heen done j and the Bank had driven a good bargain for itself. The Earl of Liverpool explained. It was desirable to give the country the best form ofa Banking System, and that was by the destruction of all monopoly. This was intended to prevent the dread- ful consequences throughout the country by the repealed failures of Country Banks. Lord King; agreed that it was a most, extravagant bargain, and on very high terms, which the Bank had driven with Ministers. The whole measures of Ministers on this subject went to an extinc- tion of the gold circulation once more. Ministers talked of their wish for all possible reduction in taxation, but they always took care to have their reductions of the least possible extent. Lord Suffield contended that Government taxation lmd the great- est cflect in enhancing the amount of the Poor's Bates.— Adj. HOUSE Of COMMONS— MONDAY. Capt. Wemys presented a Petition signed by 2011 Farmers of the County of Fife, complaining of distress, and praying that the Scotch Distilleie might be permitted to export spirits to England and to foreign countries— Sir R. Fergusson supported this Peti- tion. If the Scotch Distillers were allowed to export spirits, he was convinced it would cause a consumption in the year of not less than 600,( 100 ouarters of barley above what was now used in the distilleries— Mr. Vansittart said, a Committre was afpresent sit- ting, and enquiry into this important subject formed a considera- ble part of their object. He did not desire to anticipate what might be the result of their deliberations, but for himself he must say, he was rather desirous to see an increase in the consumption of beer than in til at of spirits— Tilt Petition was received. Mr. S. Wortley presented a Petition from the Heritors and Com- missioners of the County of Forfar, praying the House to take the Distillery Laws into consideration. Sir T. Lethbridge presented a Petition from certain Owners and Occupiers of Land in Somersetshire, complaining of distress, and declaring their conviction that the several Agricultural Resolutions proposed would give no relief. They particularly and by name objected to the plan proposed by the Hon. Member for Portarling- ton ; and expressed their alarm at those resolutions— an alarm in which he participated. The Member for Portarlington httd certainly treated the agriculturists rather hardly ; for lie had said that they assigned no reason for their complaints. Now he did not foramo- Hient pretend that he could contend with the Member for Portar- lingt ou, in urging reasons in support of his opinion, as tilt; Mem- ber for Portarlington was, in fact, a God of Reason, ( A laugh.) But he recollected some time ago when a Goddess of Reason started up in France, and brought those who listened to her into many scrapes. He hoped the same tiling wouiu not occur to us, from our listening *> . he God of Reason ou the present occasion. ( A laugh- J The Petitioners now preyed for a high protecting duty as the only measure to wiiich they could look for protection— Petition read, and received. Mr. Huskisson presented a Petition from Robert Churchall, complaining of certain hardships and losses to which he had been subjected by the conduct of a body of Licensing Magistrates. He ( Mr. H.) had formerly asked an Hon. Member, Whether the brew- ers intended to reduce the price of beer, and had been told that the time Was not far distant at which tile reduction would take place. He now again wished to ask if the time had arrived ? and lie would at the same time intimate, that this was the third and last time of asking. ( A laugh. J— Mr. Buxton, in reply, said, he had before intimated that the reduction would take place when the stock that had paid the duty was exhausted ; he was happy to say that time had arrived— the Government had reduced the price one farthing a pot, the brewers had reduced it one halfpenny a pot. He had to complain of Gentlemen coming down to the House, and mak- ing statements for which there was no foundation. An Hon. Ad>- miral had complained, that the beer was reduced in strength to what it was twenty years ago. Now, he would tell that gallant Admiral, that he was greatly mistaken ; for the beer, at the pre- sent time, was 25 per cent, stronger than it was 2') years ago, as would appear to satisfaction, from the books of Excise — Petition ordered to be printed. . AGRICULTURAL DIStress After the presentation of some Petitions, which gave rise to a desultory conversation of some length, the Marquis of Londonderry moved, that the House should go into* Committee upon the Agricultural Report. Mr. Ellice opposed the motion in an elaborate speech, the main argument of which Va3, that any thing tending to raise the price of agricultural produce would be ruinous to the manufacturing and commercial interests ; but though his reasoning went gene- rally to the principle of the Report, the Hon. Member directed it • specially against the clause under discussion— the first clause of I the Report— which advises that an advance, by way of loan, of one ; million, shall be made to the agriculturists in distress, upon the j security of corn in warehouse, whenever the price of wheat shall be below 60s. Mr. Benett ( of Wilts) deprecated the invidious preference claim- ed for the manufacturing mid commercial interests, lie said, the landlords would be satisfied with the rents of 1792. with a propor- tionable reduction of taxation, which he considered the only effec- tual measure of relief. The Marquis of Londonderry defended the clause, contending that the proposed measure ( which was to be treated merely as a , temporary expedient) would operate beneficially, by equalizing i the markets, and securing the small farmer against the necessity of Selling at'a. disadvantage. Mr. Curwen expressed his approbation of the first clause, and hinted something of the advantage of a permanent measuie founded on similar principles. Mr. Huskisson opposed the clause, on the ground, that, if the markets rose, the proposed million would be useless ; but if they fell, there would be a great scramble for it. Several other Members spoke. Those in opposition opposing the clause very earnestly, and the country gentlemen ^ treating it rather coldly ; when, at length, th: Marquis of Londonderry con- fessed, that he had opposed in the Committee the clause which he had just been recommending to the House, and consented to its abandonment. He then thought it would be. best not to go into the second Resolution tc night; and the House adjourned. TUESDAY.— Mr. Chetwynd in bringing up the Report of the Vagrant Laws Amendment Bill, adverted to several amend- ments winch the Bill had undergone in the Committee.— Sir R. Wilson expressed himself satisfied with the amendments which had taken place in the Bill. Several Petitions, complaining of Agricultural Distress, were presented, and ordered to be printed. AGRICULTURAL DISTRESS - Lord londonderry moved the Order of the Day for going into a Committee on the Agricultural Report, and in answer to a question from Mr. Curwen, said he thought it would be best to take the scale of duty first, and here he would give way to the Member for Somersetshire, whose duty of 40s. was the highest and most simple proposition ; that disposed of, the proposition of the Member for Wiltshire would conic next, followed by that of the Member for Portarlington, and this would bring them to the main question. The House then went into a Committee; and the Noble Mar- quis continued. He said, he should have no objection to vote ei- ther for tiie Resolutions of the Chancellor of the Exchequer or the Member for Portarlington. In his own opinion the ports might be opened at 65s. subject to a duty of 20s. to which was to be added 10s. more for the expence of importation. But in legislating upon this subject, regard was to be had to public. opinion. He was not therefore disposed to alter, in the first instance, the present rate at which corn might be imported; and that had been the opinion of the Committee. The Member for Somerset had proposed 35s. of duty, on an article that, fetched from 89s. to 90. r. in the market. It was in fact equivalent to a prohibition. A nearly similar objec- tion applied to the duty proposed by the Member for Wilts, who wished for a permanent duty of 24s. and 10s. as the expcnce of im- portation. The Member for Portarlington wished for a fixed duty, and in the first instance the duty was to begin at 70*. The Chancel- lor of the Exchequer had, in the first instance, proposed a duty of 15 s. which, as the price of corn rose, was to be reduced to 5 s. and ul- timately to Is.— He wou'd prefer a fixed duty, rather than having any opening price whatever; or a duty by an increasing scale. He therefore considered, that the recommendation of. his Right Hon. Friend should be adopted. He had in the Committee wished that the ports should open at 65s, with a scale of'duty ; but that did not meet the opinion of the Committee, who. preferred a duty of 12s. when the price should be above 70s. 11 e would take the duty how- ever at 16s. or 20s. rather than leave the country in its present pe- rilous state. His Resolution would be, that the ports should not be opened till the price was at 80s. allowing importation duty at 70*. He then moved a Resolution— That Foreign Corn should not be permitted to be imported, free from duty, until the price should be 80x. in the home market. Sir T. Lethbridge agreed that it was their duty to legislate for the good of the whole community ; but still he 6nould call for a scale of duties on all foreign imports of agricultural produce- He was aware of the difficulty of legislating on articles of food; but it was necessary to provide a remedy for tlie existing evil. He should therefore move a Resolution to protect the whole agricul- tural produce of the country. Last week a quantity of butter was sold at 50s. a firkin, which could not be raised by the farmer in this country under 70 or 80s. Good Buckinghamshire butter could not be sold, because the Dutch merchant had paid his 2d. in the pound duty on his butter, and sold it at a profit of 3d. per lb. It was in vain to tell him that they should confine this question to corn, or that protection could not be carried farther than mono- poly. Sotne remedy must be immediately found for these evils. He believed that, except in very scarce years, we were capable of growing sufficient for out own consumption ; and then where was the necessity for the immense carc taken of foreign importation ? A Merchant, in a Committee, had said, that, with a duty of 40s. he would undertake to inundate the country with foreign corn. Honourable Members might not recollect that; but it made an im- pression on him that would not be easily effaced. The landholders had stood firm ; and they would do so if not goaded to desperation by that abominable political economy now in vogue. He hoped the House would not support the propositions of the Noble Mar- quis. He then moved, ns an amendment to the motion, a scale of duties on wheat, flour, corn, rice, barley, bear and bigg, butter, apples, pears, poultry, cheese, icr. Sir F. Burdett ridiculed the various schemes which Ministers had proposed and abandoned. They ought to begin to reduce all things to the standard of 1702. The whole community should be relieved at once, or the farmer could never flourish. The state of tlie currency should be taken into consideration, as well as the ex- cessive taxation. Without these considerations, there could be no relief for the country. Instead of the House occupying itself in such measures as that now before it, attention should be paid to the Civil List, and to the whole public expenditure; and, above all things, a free corn trade; and if all other trades were free also, he was persuaded it would be for the benefit of the country. The imbecility of those whose superior talents ought to guide us, placed us in a more dangerous situation than any we were placed in dur. ing the arduous contest in which we had been engaged; and the House Would stultify itself by submitting longer to be governed by such a set of men as those who now held the reins of Government; and he believed nothing but achange of men could save the country. Mr. Robinson said, the propositions thrown out by the lion. Baronet, went to a repeal of taxation to such on extent, as could only be effected by a reduction of the interest of the National Debt. — f Loud cheering from the Opposition. J— He was glad to hear this unequivocal expression of opinion : it would shew to the country what the real objcct of those Gentlemen was, and the de- sire they now had to force the Government to adopt this most im- portant measure— ( Loud cries of Hear I hear I hear ! J— and he must again say, that the Hon. Baronet would best promote the public good by bringing before the House, a distinct proposition to that effect. As to the question now before the House, he had never been in favour of the Corn Laws. But surely, on a subject so important, and on which so nuu; h public interest existed, it was not to be objected as a fault to his Majesty's Government that they had endeavoured to consult and ascertain the opinion of the people, lie then proceeded to defend the proposition of his Noble Friend, as one calculated to afford as much relief by its operations as the present situation of the country would admit of; and he could as- sure the Hon. Baronet, it was not any taunts of his could make his Majesty's Ministers depart from the course which they considered it right to adopt; and if they discharged their duty honestly, he had no fears but they would have the support of thecountry ( Hear IJ Sir J. Newport did not believe the distress of the country was occasioned by over production. He was convinced the excessive taxation was insupportable. As to the question now before the House, he had many doubts whether It. was not highly impolitic to meddle with it all. It was most dangerous to hold oul hopes ofa remedy," which could not afterwards be extended to the people; and he was fully convinced that no duty, however high, which the House could impose, would prevent a portion of the great quantity of corn collected oil the Continent finding its way into this country. Mr. Ricardo contended that the abundant produce and great importation had overstocked thecountry, and depreoiaied the va- lue of the corn thus accumulated in the country j so much that Proposed Rcsolutions for Regulation of the Corn Trade.

He said, his proposition was for a duty of 10s. and by pro- posing sneii a measure, he contended he was the real friend of the farmer; this duty of 10s. to attach when corn was at 60s. and to increase to 15s. when corn got down to 55s. A duty of 10s- he maintained would, an the most moderate coniputation.' raise foreign com to 6/ s. and tls. 4W. a bushel, and 0.7s, a quarter had been de- clared by the Member for Wilts to be a fair remunerating price. — How then could he and other Gentlemen desire a higher duty ; higher by 10s. than thai which he had now to propose. Mr. Benett rose amidst a loud cry of adjourn .; when the Chair- man reported progress, and obtained leave to sit again to- morrow ( this day). Mr. Martin brought in his Bill to prevent Cruelty to Cattle, which was read a first time— Adjourned at one o'clock.. NEW VIEW or MATRIMONY.— A lady meeting s girl who had lately left her servie, enquired " Well, Mary, where do you live now ?" " Please, ma'am, I don't live now," replied th « girl, I am married." A HINT TO MONEY- LeNDeRS.— The following curi- ous conversation actually oocurred a few days ago, in a garden at- tached to a Lunatic Asylum not far from Dumfries. The inter- locutors were the keeper, a very respectable man, and one of the most manageable of his patients. " Take it easy, take it easy, Jamie— you're not working against time, man— and when you come near the border, be sure and keep your feet off the flowers." —" The Sowers, hurt ihe bonnie sweet Sowers 1" said Jamie, " na, na ; I'm no sue daft as that comes to, neither ;• I would as soon chap off my ajn fingers as crush ane o' them.

It's changed • times wi'them, I jelouse. Whaur the public- house folk used to sell a gallon o' whisky, they dinna sell a* mutchkin now I hear,. Uut that's nothing.

Mr. Pascoe Grenfell and Mr. Rothschild in- quired as to its being taken by one contractor or by many; to which it was replied, that Government wished itto be taken by one body, but if that could hot be obtained, it would be open to others. The Mi- nister being asked if he would consider stock as security, replied, money or Exchequer bills, but not stock at the price of the day, as it might be liable to fluctuation. He was asked if he should con- sider consols at 50as security? He said, certainly. The business was deferred until Friday next, for another preliniinary discussion, and it is expected that on Tuesday the hideing will be received and the matter finally settled. This is the largest Loan ever proposed in Europe, amounting to above one hundred millions payable by in- stalments. The competition and bidding is to be on fixed Annui- ties, payable for 45 years; consequently those who offer to take the smallest amount of Annuities will be the Contractors. The Gentlemen returned into the City at one o'clock ; when the plan was disclosed, the Funds were slightly depressed. Essex MEETING A County Aleeting was held on Tues- day at the Shire Hall, Chelmsford, for the purpose of taking into consideration " the distressed situation of the different classes of so- ciety deptndent upon Agriculture, in order that the Meeting might make such representations on the subject to the Legislature, as the circumstances in which the agricultural body are placed imperiously require." The High Sheriff took the Chair ; and Sir T. B. Lennard having entered into a detail of the distress which oppressed the Agricultural Interests, proposed some Resolutions, which, he observed, sufficiently pointed out the source of that dis- tress. These were carried almost unanimously, and a Petition, founded on them, was agreed to, when the Meeting separated. IRELAND.— The accounts continue to give a melan- choly confirmation of all that has hitherto been related of the dis- tress which prevails in particular counties. The details from the county of Clare, exhibit a picture of wretchedness which needs only to be known to command relief. On the Church door of the parish of Clareabbcy, the following notice was found the Sunday previ- ous to Easter. We give it verbatim, and without any alteration in orthography, as we consider it, from its simplicity, a most powerful and pathctic appeal to humanity :— " Good charitable Quality— The poor Inhabitants of Clare is actily starving living on one meal in the Day and that same a bad meal, we are in hopes ye will doe something for us out of hand, we will actily Die with hunger If ye Dont luck to us out of hand as them that has a little family must Hob before The die with hun- ger before their fare, As the are half Dead before." In addition to the above, we have heard several instances of wretched families driven to the necessity of killing their only cow for food, from the cries of their starving children, and having no other means of appeasing their hunger. The typhus fever, which is generally the companion of famine, has made its appearance in several parts of the country. BRITISH AND FOREION BIBLE SOCIETY,— Wednesday se'nnight the General Meeting of this Society was held at Freema- son's Tavern, and at an early hour it was filled by a numerous and respectable assemblage. Lord Teignmouth was called to the Chair. The Secretary read the Report, and gave the most satisfactory de- tails of the progress of the British Auxiliary Society, and also of the Bible Societies which now pervaded almost every part of Eu- rope, and the most flattering communications from persons of rank in almost every province on the Continent, were read to the meet- ing. and detailed the progress and the effects which the dissemi- nation of the Scriptures had worked upon the peoplo, in some in- stances amounting almost to an entire change of manners. I » Ca- tholic countries the progress was beyond their utmost expectations. Even amongst the Jews, the Chinese, and the Mahometans, Bibles had been introduced, and had gone on under circumstances of great promise. It appeared that the number of Bibles circulated during last year, was beyond that of the preceding year ; and al- together there were more than three millions and a half of the So- ciety's Bibles in silent but active operation in almost every quar- ter of the world, and in. almost every language. The contribu- tions of the Society amounted last year to upwards of 103,000/. of which more than 59,000/. had been received from the Auxiliary Societies. The disbursements amounted last year to 90,490/. The Duke of Gloucester, the Earl of Harrowby, Lords Teignmoiith and Calthorpe, the Chancellor of the Exchequer, and Mr. Wil- berforce, were present. Several appropriate Resolutions were agreed to, after which the Meeting dispersed. The Annual Meeting of the Naval and Military Bible Society, was held yesterday, attended by a most respectable com- pany. Lord Gambier took the Chair, and was supported by many persons of rank, Naval and Military Officers, & c. who severally addressed the Meeting on behalf of the Society, which has greatly meliorated the condition of soldiers and sailors. Tile Report how- ever stated, that the Society was in debt to the amount of HOO/. A liberal collection was made at the door. LONDON GENERAL PENSION SOCIETY.— This Society was commemorated on Wednesday, at the Albion Tavern; the Duke of Sussex in the Chair; and upwards of 200 Gentlemen sat down to dinner. This Society was founded in October, ltt! 8; since which time it has risen into celebrity. Its grand object is to entirely dis. courage pauperism ; to rescue deserving members of society from unmerited contumely and neglect, and to sustain that virtuous spirit of independence, whir'.' " though unable to work," is " asham- ed to beg." There are at present 72 pensioners dependent on this Institution, all of whom receive a sufficiency to support them in- dependent of parochial aid. LITERARY SOCIETY, GLASGOW.— The question on Thursday evening at tile Lyceum, " whether the writings of Sir Walter Scott or Robert Burns have tended most to the improve- ment of mankind ?" was, after an animated debate, carried by a considerable majority in favour of Burns. MADAME CATALANI'S SECOND CONCERT.— This Concert was on Wednesday night attended by an overflow. Her immense power of voice and facility of execution, are beyond criticism. They leave the mind impressed with a degree of admiration, al- most amounting to amazement, that wholly bereaves it of the power of calculating the causes by which such an effect has been produced. The other rich varieties of her style are better under- stood, and, perhaps, not less valued. Her peculiar grace and ten- derness of expression in compositions of elegance and simplicity, is always in fine contrast witn the majesty of her tones, and divi- sions in passages of grandeur and sublimity. Tile- whole Concert afforded a pure treat to the amateur, and appeared to give univer- sal satisfaction. After the close, " God save the King" was given by Madame Catalani in her best manner. EMIGRATION.— The final departure from Oswestry, of three generations of one family, took place on Monday, in the per- sons of Mrs. Bickerton, widow, her children and grand- children. The heart- rending scene was witnessed by a vast concourse of their friends and fellow- townsmen. The Chester coach from that place was filled within and without by persons going to America. BONAPARTE.— The following extract from a periodical publication of this month reveals a new trait in this character: " To the Rev. Dr. Bogue Dear Sir, I have taken the liberty of requesting your acceptance of the accompanying Volume of your Essay on the New Testament, which was once in the pos- session of Napoleon Bonaparte, a circumstance I mentioned when I had the pleasure of seeing you, on my return from St. Helena. I trust it had been perused by that extraordinary man, who, altho' he ever lived professedly, as well as practically, without God in the world, or any belief in his name, yet was often observed to be engaged in secret prayer, whilst lingering on his dying- bed, and known to have joined in prayer with the Priest, who lived with him, and who was considered an amiable man, and to have made a pro- fession of his faith in Christ, through whom he prayed to the Father. Jan. 30, 1822." COMPLETION or BLAKESLEY'S GREAT MATCH.— This undertaking, to go on foot to Exeter and back to London, in six days, by a circuitous route, making 380 miles, was completed at half- past eleven o'clock on Sunday night. The match was won, through great difficulties, in the last hour of the time. CURE roil CORNS.— A rag dipped in spermaceti oil, has cured a corn of 30 years' standing. DESCRIPTION OF A VERY SIMPLE BAROMETER.— Take a common phial bottle, and cut off the rim and oart of the neck. This may be done by apiece of string, or rather whip- cord, twist- ed round it, and pulled strongly in a sawing position by t « o. per- sons : one of whom holds the bottle firmly in his left hand. Heat- ed in a few minutes by the friction of the string, and then, dipped suddenly into cold water, the bottle will be decapitated more easily than by any other means, even than by a guillotine. Let the phial be now nearly filled with common pump- water, and, applying the finger to its mouth, turn it quickly upside- down :• on removing the finger it will be { bund that only a few drops escape. Without cork or stopper of any kind, the water will be retained within, the bottle by the pressure of the external air ; the weight ofair without the phial being so much greater than that of the small quantity within it. Now let a bit of tape be tijdroand the middle of the bot- tle, to which the two ends of a string may be attached, so as to f » im a loop to hang on a nail: let it be thus suspended, in a perpend - eular manner, with the mouth open downwards; and this is the barometer* When the weather is fair, and inclined to be so, the water will be level with the section of the neck, or rather elevated above it, and forming a concave surface. When disposed to be wet, a drop will appear at the mouth, which will enlarge till it fails, and then another drop, while the humidity of the atmosphere continues. EXTRAORDINARY DROPSICAL CASE.— The following is allowed by the most eminent of the Faculty to be the most ex- traordinary case on resord. Miss M. M. Downes, of Fir Court, Churchstoke, Montgomeryshire, the lady whose singular case has before been stated underwent, the 108th operation of tapping upon 22d May, 1821. which was performed by R. Clee, Esq. of Stref- ford- House, Shropshire v but he could only extract one quart of water, although she was then as full and as large as the other times, when thirteen or fourteen quarts were drawn off. In this painful moment, the lady . thus expressed herself, " Good Doctor, stab me again in another place— life or death,— for I cannot exist long except you can extract the water." The surgeon reluctantly complied with her anxious request, but the second operation was at- tended wi. h no more success than the first, only one small teacup full of water being discharged. This most distressing disappoint- ment Miss Downes sustained with exemplary fortitude. She told Mr. Cite that in a fortnight or three weeks, she Would send for him to perform the operation again, if she was alive, and perhaps then the water might run off, as it had always done on former occasions, " and I will not be unhappy," she said, " nor suffer my spirits to be cast down." In the course of one week, however, to the great astonishment and inexpressible joy of herself and her friends, every drop of the w ater was dried u. p within her, and she was quite small, . and; able to walk out daily ! After this most providential event, the water collected so slow that she was not under the necessity of being tapped again till the 5th of last February, on which day she ' cheerfully submitted to the 107th operation, which she bore with good spirits, while thirteen quarts of clear water were extracted ; and Miss Downes's health at present is much better than it has been for upwards of twenty years: to hear of which may afford i some consolation to those who are afflicted w. ifli tinlilsiT disotdat. Riots in STAFFORDSHIRE:— The turbulent spirit •• tinced by the Colliers and Stone- getters, at Monmore Green Col- liery, on Monday se'nnight, continued to manifest itself in a greater or less degree during tlie week. Oil Thursday a great number as- sembled at Rough Hills, proceeded to various acts of violence, and personally ill- treated the manager of the works, Mr. W. Firmstone. The Military were in consequence called in from this town, when the rioters were dispersed, and seven men were taken into custody, five of whom were committed to prison. Our County Member, Mr. Littleton, who is Lieut. Col. of the Yeomanry ; Earl Talbot, Lord Lieut, of this County ! Earl of Dartmouth, Colonel of the Staffordshire Militia; and Mr. Kinnersly, Member for Newcastle, and Captain of their troop of Cavalry, are all in this vicinity, ready with their services, should they be deemed necessary. Several of the most active of the rioters at Rough Hills on Thurs- day having escaped, warrants were obtained for their apprehension, • arid it having been found impossible for the civil power to take them in the day time, it was determined to make an attempt to seize them by night. In consequenece, the Teddesley troop of Yeomanry, com- manded by Lieut. Col. Littleton, marched by three o'clock on Sa- turday morning, attended by our Magistrate, the Rev. J. Clare, to the place of destination, Ettingshall- Lane, where many of the rioters were known to live i they were met by the staff of the Staf- fordshire militia, together with a considerable number of special Constables, and attended by the Rev. Mr. Leigh, Magistrate, from Bilston ! and such was the regularity and precision observed, that both parties met at the place appointed at the same moment, in a few minutes the houses of the rioters were surrounded, nine of the principal were secured and delivered over to the civil power ; arid seven of them were afterwards committed to Stafford. The arrangement and rapidity of these movements, which did not oc- cupy more than an hour and an half, reflect the highest crcdit on the military ; and the effect produced upon^ the rioters, by the sur- prise, is, we Understand scarcely to be described. The Magistrates ( from a number of complaints having been made to them by colliers and stone- miners, of their being deterred . from following their employment by the threats of the disorderly..), issued an address on Saturday, promising ample protection to ihe peaceable and well disposed ; since which time we ase happy t,> say, thany are returned to their work, which they are pursuing un- molested. In a few days we trust perfect order will be resturedi. John Robson, ( not Roberts, as stated in our last,) the man who was shot at Monmore Green, on Monday se'nnight, we regret to say; died on Wednesday night. A Coroner's Jury was summoned ' on Thursday, and after sitting the whole of that and the following day, adjourned till Friday next. As we mean, to give a copious ab- stract of the evidence after the delivery of the Vesdict, we shall at present only observe, that it has been already clearly proved tfctt a Violent and alarming riot existed, and that before the firing of tht; fatal shot, the lives of many persons had been imminently endan- gered.— Wolverhampton Chronicle. _ COURT OF KING'S BENCH, MAY 4. The King v. Clark— The question submitted to the judgment of the Court in this case was, whether the city of Bath is liable tt » be assessed to the county- rate of Somerset. It depended on the construction of 55 Geo. HI. c. 51, which ex « opts from tlie liabi- lity to contribute to ( be general county- rate all places having a separate jurisdiction of their own by grant, charter, or statute. It appeared that the city of Bath had, for some purposes, a separate jurisdiction by charter, but that its Magistrates had the power nf committing to the county gaol persons charged with felonies within the city, and the expences of prosecuting such offenders would be paid out of the county fund. The Court, therefore, after hearing Mr. Adam for the exemp- tion, and Mr. Gazelee for the liability of the city, decided that Bath was liable to the rate- The city had, no doubt, for some purposes, a separate jurisdiction ; but those words in the except- ing provision of the Act must be construed to mean a separate ju- risdiction for the purposes to which the county- rate is applicable, and coultl never intend that where a city derived benefit from the rate, it should be exempted from a liability to contribute to raise it. They therefore gave judgment for the Crown. EXECUTIONS.— Wednesday, Wm. Darch, for setting fire to a house; Benj. Day, for burglary ; and Benj. Glover, ami Geo. Puddy, for housebreaking, were executed at Ilchester. On Sun- day, Mr. Hardy received a reprieve for Wm. Abbott, convicted of a highway robbery. Since their condemnation they had behaved w ith becoming resignation. Darch, who was a native of Milverton, had borne a good character, and of this crime he declared himself innocent to the last. Glover was only sixteen years of age, and was the child of a notorious thief in Bath, hy whom he had been educated in every species of crime. At the Spring Assize* for 1821 he had been sentenced to death for a burglary, but had been re- prieved, and his punishment commuted to a short period of impri- sonment. A few days previous to his death he was heard to say, " He cared not for the execution of his sentence, only he feared , his d— d heart was not correct." Day and Puddy were both characters. The spectators were unusually numerous, and con- sisted of three females to one man: their behaviour was disgrace- ful in the extreme, their brutal shouts and mirth even disturbing the administration of the last holy Sacrament! On Saturday, Wm. Tongue, a carder, from Manchester, for abusing a female under ten years of age, and Geo. Groom, from Alsager, Cheshire, for a violent highway robbery, on an infirm old man, whom he beat unmercifully, were executed at Chester. Groom attributed his melancholy career and its fatal termination to his practice of Sabbath- breaking. Tongue for some time en- tertained hopes of a reprieve, becausr in his early days, some cun- ning man had told him he should be brought near to tha gallows, but should escape it! They both died very penitent.
