Dr. Jameses Powder IS acknowledged to be the greatest Dis- covery in Medicine1 during the last Century. In cases of Fever it will of'en effect a Cure in a few Honrs, especially when freely given and at the Outset of the Disease. It is administered with equal Success in all Attacks of Measles, St. Anthony's Fire, Sore Throat, Pleurisy and Rheumatism ; but as Colds and Catarrhs partake more or less of inflam- matory Symptoms, this Powder ?* peculiarly eftica eiofis in cutting short their Duration ; which, however harmless they . may lie thought, often terminate in Pulmonary Affections, the fatal Conse- quences of which are but too well known As an Alterative in Chronic Diseases, it is an admirable Remedy. Dr. James's Powder continues to be prepared by Messrs. NEWBERY, from the onlt/ Copy of tlie Process left by Dr. James in his own Hand- writing, which was deposited with their Grandfather in when he became Joint Proprietor; and is sold by them, at the ORIGINAL WAREHOUSE, NO. 45, St. PauPs Church yard, and, hy their Appointment, in most Country Towns.

The Perspiration used to roll in Torrents from my Forehead, from the excessive Agonies I felt ; but now, if I am afraid, of a slight Return, I immediately have Recourse to your truly divine Znra! when, like the Angel of Mercy, it immediately either wards off the detestable Enemy entirely, or mitigates its Attacks. You know it is but " Young Days" with us vet, nnd 1 cannot expect to get well ali at once, but if 1 improve as I have these laM, three Weeks, I feel quite assured that the Monster of now nearly twenty- tVro Years standing, almost incessant in its Visitation, w ill he totally destroyed. So many Friends have been fo visit me in Consequence of what we all call a won- derful Recovery, that I am sure you will not want for any Recommendation ; and believe me, my dear Sir, that, the first Journey I make from my House, these last six Years, shall he to thank you for the.

The United States have recently declared the Slave Trade to be punishable as piracy. Mil. STRATFOHD CANNING— the late Minis- ter at Washington.— The National Intelligencer, speaking of his reception in New York, says, " There can be no stronger evidence of good feeling m this country towards Great Britain, than the obliging manner in which Mr. Canning's movements are noticed in the New York Papers, and the disposition which is shewn to be pleased with every tiling he does or docs not. We believe ue attribute this uncommon attention to Mr. Canniii", whose habits are such as to induce him to retire from public notice rather than to court it, to its true origin, when we say it proceeds partly from a regard for the character of the object of it, but, in a good degree, also, from a feeling of cordial good will towards the British people, which is gaining ground in the country." We are extremely sorry to announce the' un- favourable state of the Lord Chancellor's health. His Lordship is afBicted with vertigo, and a ten- dency of blood to the head. At the advanced age of the distinguished Nobleman's life, these sytnp- loms cannot but be alarming.— Courier. Mr. M'Adam's plan for paving the streets of London, in a manner similar to that now going on in St. James's square, is, we find, to be tried immediately upon a more extended scale. He commences next week in Parliament street, the whole of which, from Charing. cross to the House of Lords, is selected for the experiment, under an Order from the Board of Works.

The Chairman afterwards proposed the health of the " Earl Liverpool and his Majesty's Ministers," which was drank with " three times three." This toast again brought up Mr. ROBINSON, who ob- served, that in stating his own opinion on the topics to which he bad already adverted, he had distinctly expressed the sentiments of his colleagues. His Majesty's Ministers, he repeated, were actuated by no other motive than the public welfare, and though the line of policy they had adopted might in some instances be deemed erroneous, they felt that it was only so long as they carried with them the approbation and confidence of ihe country, that they could hope to maintain those situations, the duties of which it was their endeavour honestly to fulfil to the best of their ability.

J. Smith, one of the officers of Bow- sireet? on the authority of a warrant from the Court of King's Bench, signed by Lord Chief Justice Abbott. It appears that', at the las Assizes for the county of Stafford, an indictment was preferred against this Mr. James Stamp Sutton Cooke for having conspired, with other persons, to disturb Sir George Jerningham, Bart, in the pos- session of certain manors, messuages, lands, and premises, in the said county, and to deprive bun of the rents, profits, arising therefrom ; which indictment Sir George afterwards removed by certiorari into the Court of King's Bench,, at West- minster, and thereupon the present warrant Was issued for his apprehension. The warrant was put into the hands of J. J. Smith; and, after several days watching, he met with Mr James Stamj: Siittm Cooke, on Wednesday last, walking along Fleet- street, and he immediately took him' into custody, and conveyed him to Radford's lock- up house, in Carey- street, Lincoln's Inn- fields, where lie remained a prisoner until Friday morning, when he was conveyed before Mr. Justice Best, at the Justice Hall, in the O d Bailey, and by him admitted to bail, himself in £ 400 and two sureties iu £ 21 » 0 each. GLASGOW DINNER — O. i Thursday last Messrs, Brougham and Den man were entertained at dinner by those Gentlemen, and others of Glasgow, who admire the politics of the more violent oppositionists in Parliament.— The Duke of Hamilton, his brother Lord Archibald, Lords Kinuaird and Bellhaven Messrs. Maxwell, and Kennedy, were present apologies were made for the absence of Messrs Jeffrey and Cranston.— Lord A. Hamilton took th Chair. The principal speakers, besides the noble men and gentleman whom we named, and the learned lawyers who were the objects of the meet ing, were Professors Milne and Pillans, Mr. Law le^ s ihe proprietor of an Irish Radical Newspape aud a Mr. M'Claran, who said be was an elector of Westminster.— The company remained over thei whiskey punch, which, according to the report of the Morning (• lironicle, " superseded the necessit of wineuntil a late hour. BIRMINGHAM.— The R'ght Hon. F. Robinson, Chancellor of the Exchequer, having been on yisit to Leamington, the opportunity was embraced by the Magistrates, Bailiffs, and many of the most respectable inhabitants of Birmingham, to invite Mr R. to a public dinner in that town, which accordingly took place at the Royal Hotel Thursday last, when about 70 gentlemen sat dow toa sumptuous dinner, Theodore Price, Esq. in th Chair. — After the cloth was drawn, and some nsu and loyal toasts had been drank, the Chairman, in short address, introduced the health of44 the Clia eel I or or his ? rLijesty* w Exchequer," briefl y adve tag to the popular acts of the Right Hon. Gentleina during the last Session of Parliament, and to the broad and enlightened views which distinguished his Presidency of the Board of Trade. Mr. ROBINSON said, he traced the encouraging ap- probation of the meeting'to the grateful task ihat had fallen to him since his new official appointment— that of assisting in lessening the public burthens of the country ; lie conUI assure the company that it was the first object of his policy, aud that the relief so af- forded had been extended with a most willing hand. Mr. Robinson then referred lo the frying period through which the country had passed, and adverted to the lamented effects produced by the late commer- cial distress, and particularly as it related to this and other manufacturing districts. He next congratulat- ed those who heard him, upon the present condition of our manufacturers and those employed under them, and touched with great delicacy and tender- ness upon any feeling of discontent that might have been found among those who had borne the more intense pressure of the times - adding, most truly, that whatever might once have b' en the case, all was now industry, contentment, and happiness. The Right Hon. Gentleman having alluded to the gratification he had experienced in Ihe course of his progVess through the various establishments he had visited* adverted generally to tbe policy of Gpyern- SHREWSBURY.

He was a gentleman of distinguish- ed abilities; aud, as a political economist, had the faculty of discussing the intricate principles of that science with singular acuteness aud perspicuity; his writings upon those subjects, indeed, constituted almost as marked an era as the celebrated work of Adam Smith. In the House of Commons, his opinions were received with the most respectful at- tention, as well from the general opinion of his profound knowledge of ail the mysteries of com- merce, as from his amiable disposition aud con- ciliating manners. Ilis loss will not be more re- gretted as a public man, than as a private character: his exemplary benevolence to the poor — the endear- ing qualities of an affectionate husband and parent — and the generosity of a liberal and kind friend, combine to reuder his death a calamity universally deplored.

His poor Wife ( naturally of a delicate Constitution) has, from close Attendance upon him, both Day and Night, materially injured her Health ; the Children, all of them too young to go out into the World to get their Living, contribute daily to diminish bis Savings, and with a large Sum due for Medical and Surgical Assistance, render the Case doublv distressing'.

ARCHERY MEETING OF THE NEEDWOOD FORESTERS. — The third meeting for the season of the Needwood Foresters was held on Thursday, at Holly Bush, tbe elegant mansion of T. K; Hail, Esq. Tiie spot chosen for the erection of the targets, was a beautiful piece of ground near the house, on the banks of the lake, and commanding a fine and extensive view of u the green vale with its wooded banks," preserved through the taste, of its ' generous owner' from the devastation of the late iuelosure. The natural beauties of the scene were very much heightened on this occasion by the aucangements for the. accommodation of the party, being tastefully furnished with marquees, tents, cce. and decorated with flags and colours., and the whole presented to great numbers of spectators a very animated and romantic spectacle. The company assembled in full . numbers at noon, and at half- past one o'clock the sport of the day commenced, and was continued with much spirit till live, when the successful candidates for the society's prizes were announced as follows :— The first Ladies' prize to the amiable Hostess, Mis. Hail ; the second, to the Hon. Miss Curzp. ii. Tise first Gentleman's prize to Mr Gres- ley ; the second, to Mr. Charles Arkvvright.~ In addition to the above, three prizes were given by Mr. and Mrs. Hall, the successful competitors foV which were Miss Sneyd and Miss C. Snevd, of Keel, and the Hon. and Rev. R. Bagot.— After tne determination of the prizes, the company sat down to a sumptuous dinner set out with much elegance in two spacious apartments in the house, and a temporary addition erected for the occasion. It consisted of . a profusion of turtle, Venison, game, dessert of ices, and an extensive variety of choice fruits and confections, with wines of the richest quality. In the evening tbe company engaged in the amusement of dancing, which was kept up with much'gaiety till a late hour, and an eles- ant supper concluded the festivities of the day. Tire . band of the Derbyshire Militia contributed'- t< y tlie Animation f the meeting. MATCH OF 100 MILKS IN 24 SJJCCESSIVK HOURS.— On Monday evening, at six o'clock, Skipper commenced , the undertaking of walking the above match, on a half- mile piece of ground on Pitchcroft, near this city ; and completed th. s xtraordinary---. feat nine miuules within the specified ime, apparently not much fatigued. l) uirngbi « ask he rested three hours nnd three minutes, aad consequently walked the distance in twenty hours nd forty- eight minutes. He was escorted to the round and back by a band of music, attended by an immense concourse of persons. He completed similar match iu March, 1822* at B'd. beach, in Lincolnshire, in twenty- three hours and a half.— Worcester Journal. It is stated in the Leeds / nfeWirjevcer, that the purchase money of the Morning Chronicle was £ 17,000, and not £ 40,000 as reported on the authority of the purchaser/ A few days since, John Mills, treasurer to a Building Society at Tunstall, in the Potteries, absconded with the funds of the Institution.

Kinneisly's bank, in bis own name, and on the 4th inst. he drew the whole out, ( which, with the money he had in haud belonging to the club, amounted to upwards of £ 300) and went to Liverpool. The matter got wind before he could leave that port, and he was apprehended on Tuesday. He had taken his passage on board a vessel bound to America, which was to sail about Thursday last. The greater part of the cash was found upon him.

DUBLtN COURT Of CONSCIENCE. CONDON V. OHARt. ES. On Saturday last there was a- very curious hearing in this Court, before Sir John K. Jame*, in which Condon, Esq was plaiutiff, and Mr. Charles, fhe celebrated magician, was defend an t. Plaintiff stated that he sought to recover 30s. the vahYe of a hat spoiled by defendant ; that goin, t » - with another gentleman, a few evenings before t<> Mr. Charles's exhibition in Grafton- street^ his friend who had some knowledge of these mailers, puzzled the magician, and gave hvui >.> ine little annoyance he must confess • on which Mr. Charles gave to each of them " afresh egg," keeping anoiher himself; at the same time saying, that if thev could do exactly as he did, three hot omelets should he produced for ibe company ; he iberi'bioke the ^ gg, ami poured the contents into his hat, desiring them to do so with their hats, which they < P » d ( here fhe gravity of the Magistrate had tostrno- gle with, his risible faculties); and on triming their hats up, their hands and sleeves were all bespattered to their great annoyance, while Mr. Charles suffered no inconvenience, but produced his omelet. Sir JOHN.- Perhaps, Sir, you would have done well to demean yourself like other gentlemen at > neh au exhibition-. Mr. Charles, will yon have the good- ness to go. through the experiment here, for ihe benefit ofthe company ? Mr. Charles bowed asseu', amidst peais of laughter. • Plaintiff said that this was no treatment for a gentleman, and that the public were concerned in such an outrage as this of Mr Charles's, and that he walked home at night without a hat. Sir JOHN, with great good humour, then turned fo Mr. Charles, and asked w hat he had to say to all this? Mr. Charles — My Lor, I am sorry you aud I are trouble villi such a silly ding as dis is; Sir Garret Neville, I am tolds dismiss this worthy jantleman yesterday, saying much laughter, and advising him to keep de secret, and mind de advice of Sancho Panza, " The more you, See " My Lor, in the languaged of your greatest poet— '' The very head and front of my offending hath this extent, 44 No more ;— bad am 1 in speech, being a " Foreigner; and therefore litlle shall 1 grace " My cause in speaking for myself.

Dis jantleman have come wid his friend to my ex- hibition ; they den appear to know every ding so well as myself, and den I rhiok I vill try them ; there vas a much large fashionable company; my perform- ances, either in science or slight of ' de hand, may be acquired; iny tricks are all much easy— any bod^ can do clem - dat is, when d< y know how. ( Loud laughter ) My Lor, ' tis no laugh ; you remember Columbus's egg: he say, < k I vill tuake dis ego- stand on end " He, too, vas laugh at, but he tap de end on de table, and de ding was done! Why did not the jantleinau do as I did ? Where is de oder jontleinau? He have more sensp than because be have vex himself, aud been laugh at, to coine and vex at and laugh at me. Plaintiff— This is all nonsense, Sir, you ought to apologize. Mr. Charles— Apologize for what?, Here is your bat, ( taking it out of a handkerchief); you state it is spo- U, you throw, it at ine on my stage, and den- you say Vou go home uncovered ; where is it injured ( tbfowing on the hat); dere my Lor, where is it in- jured ? Sii JOHN.— Who knows, Mr. Condon, hut the hat is improved by this magic : it does not appear to me to be injured; you should have got Mr. Charles to blow ou ihe hat before. Mr. Condon.— Why did he not offer to do so ? Mr Charles.— Let his take his hat — " an egg fnr day is better than a shieken to- morrow." Ho thinks perhaps, your Lordship and I are shick. ens ; but the Dutch proverb tell him " some reckon dere shickeus before ( ley be hatched." A friend of Mr Charles then begged he would rest his case here. As no injury had been sustained, he humbly conceived nothing could be recovered in that Court. Plaintiff — I have paid 30s. for a new hat for the one you made me spoil, and ] look for justice. Mr Charles.— I make yon spoil! Come, sare, ( taking two full bottles out of his pocket) here are two botfljes of strong laudanum, taste them, take your chriise, drink one of them off, I do so ; here goes ( swallowing- the contents of the boitle amid murmurs of horror and laughter). There, Sir; ah I you no drink, dat show me von know better than do as a conjuror bid you : take your hat, or shall we send it to the Mendicity, and he good humour ? Plaint iff', — Might v fine, Si,, but Sir JOHN.— Really, Gentlemen, such a case, ns this is quite rare here; I can give no damages for what plaintiff has felt about his hat ; there is, j believe no harm done, and I must dismiss the case with costs. The decision appeared to please the " greasy rogues" in the Court below, who, like true Paddies forgot for a time their own griefs and animosities to see the fun." The parties left the Court in apparent good humour, and the beaver was borne by Mr. Charles's servant to the lodgings of plaintiff unhurt.

EXPLOSION OF A GUSPOWHER IIILI.— Monday m. trning last, between the hours of six and seven, near Bailie, il appears that the siftiug- bouse, near ( lie powder- mills, between CrOwhurst aud Battle, belonging to Mr. Lawrence, blew up with a tremendous explosion, whereby two men were killed: their bodies were found some con siderable distance from where the unfoitunate accident took place. O. ie man, named Beachiu, had worked in the mill upwards of 40 years. The other man's name is Bovis. The most lucrative employment for the poor, just at Ibis time, appears to be iu Ihe silk maim factories, which establishments are daily increasing iu tbe ciiuiitry. Tbe demand for mourning crape is at present very great. Manufactories are springing up in several populous- towns, where the good effects are witnessed iu Ilia reduction of the poor rates. The mourning era|> e, we are told, can lie made by women and children, who earn from 7s to 10s, per week; but the manufacture of silks a:: d satins, which is more laborious, aud can tie performed by men only, is far more advantageous. At Saffron Walden an establishment of this lie. scription has recently been opened, where, during a certain period required for learning tbe art, the labourer is paid 2s, per day, and after that lie is allowed what be m iy be aide to earn, which, we are told, is from £ 2 to £ 3 per week. The poor- rates have already been reduced at that place from 8s. In 3s fid. in the pound. There is in the garden occupied by Mr. Brockle- hnist, gardener, of Aylesbury, a tree which bears fourteen different kinds of apples. The tree was planted and grafted by Mr. J. Dawney, of Aylei bury.

One answer iii ay serve to die first and second objection ; That it cannot be warm under the North Poie, kc. If we consult the. experience of travel- lers and navigators, we are told that between the Tropicksj nay under the Equinoctial,' is generally as moderate weather as here in England in summer time? Why may it not then he as warm under the Poie, as here or at Amsterdam in the summer time? The small height the Sun hath there can be no exception, for then we having the Sun in its sum- mer solstice in lesser altitude than between the Tropicks, it must needs be mm h colder h: fre, which is contradicted But one reason why it is; as warm here as between the Tropicks, is, because between the Xropicks; the, Sun remains scarce above I?; hours of 24 above the Horizon to warm it, when. tts here it remains almost 17 hours of 24 above the Horizon, and therefore leaves a greater impression of heat upon it: And the farther northward we go the longer it remains above the Horizon, and less under the Horizon every 24 hours, till we come within the Arctic Circle, where the Sun remains for half a year together, viz. all the summer above the Ho- rizon, and never sets: And therefore though his beams are not so perpendicular yet they must needs criuse a great degree of heat upon the Horizon. And if it be argued that it is so cold about Green- land, and the sea so full of ice, that ships can hardly sail for it, yet cannot that argument prove that it is so about the Pole : Because the ice is made 5ibout shoars of land, but never,, in open siea, and comes there only by strength of currents, dr high winds, which does " indeed carry it some small dis- tance from the shoar. But as this relator said there under the Pole a free and open sea, & c. and consequently void of ice, iu summer time at least. Besides, experience tells us, that all land briezes are colder than those that come from sea, and therefore if may be cold about Greenland, because of the landy and yet warm under the Pole, where the sea is open, & c. The. third objection is, that if they were tfnder the Pole, they could not tell how to come back, because of the'indifferency the Needle should bear to every point of the Horizon. I examined not my relator upon this argument, though when I was parted from him I was sorry I J'd not. But it is easie to apprehend bow to guide ship either forward or backward by an observa- tion ofthe Sun a little before you enter the Pole: for bv finding in or ifear what Meredian it is, or upon; what part of the ship it beits, whetjher^ on head'or stern, on starboard or Inboard, you may measure time near enough with a glass, to knmv several daies after in" or near what Meridian fne Sun is at. any knowif or estimate time, . and colfse- Jiently know hoW to'proceed forward's, or come back with your ship. Or if the Moon have north latitude, you may « fo the same hV', the Moon. But if the Pole were traded, in shofttime it might be found bv variation of the Needle,- for there is doubt- less variation in it ; and in all the Merediaiis about it several variations. Thtis far it appears there is tf free and open sea ii summer time ( at least) aboht the North Pole. But I shall add another relation of one James BpJ whose father lived about fiVe1 years ajjo in Grown Court in R ussell- street, in ( 6We » t ^ sir. de^.-^ hj, himself lives now in Wappitig. This Sir. Ben sailed to Japan with the Dutch, as a carpenter of the ship, and he told me that that year, viz; l( 3t> S, he was newly come home from Japan : I askt hini iiim how long they were under way home from' thence ? He told me he could not well* tell, because when they set out from Japan the. Captain com- manded the sfeerman to sail due north, and they did sail from thenco about 400 Dutch miles, which is about 27 degrees due north. I askt him whether they met with no land or islands ? as 1 had done before the Dutch Greenland steer- man : he told me No, they saw no land, but that there was a free anc open sea so far as they sailed, nor any sign of land appeared. I askt him why they sailed so far Northward? He told me he coula not tell, only that the Captain commanded it, & c. Bui I suppose the East India Company commanded tbe Captain either to make a discovery of land to increase trade, or to satisfie themselves with the knowledge of an open soa, that when they saw reason they might expedite their voyages between Holland and those parts that way. I was thus inquisitive with him, because ever since I heard the former relation of the Greenland s? eer- man, I harped at a passage through or about the North Pole to Japan, China, & c. and by these two discoveries it appears fery probable there is so, and that it is passable in summer. external mark of prosperity— extended dominion, accumulated wealth, and successful cultivation of the arts— but its prosperity is not happiness ; its magnificence and luxury, however imposing, are a poor and inadequate compensation for the absence of mutual confidence and mutual kindness^ of tem- perance aud. contentment, of the dignity of virtue, and. the consolations of religion.

AMONG the many Essaies that have been mad to find a near Passage to Japan, China, & c. the most probable and likely h& th as yet ( in my opinion" en overseen, or at least not attempted. AN therefore I shall hereby communicate- my'concep- tions to publick approbation or censur . It is that Passage may very probably be about the North Pole. And the reason inducing me to conceive so , that we have no certainty from al! the discoveries at have been made of any land lying within degrees about the. Pole : But on the contrary, th I. have credibly been informed by a steer- man of Dutch Greenland ship, that there is a free and open sea under the very Pole, and somewhat beyond it. And I for my own part give credit to his relation, and do conceive that any sober ingeni- ous man would do the like, did he know in what an " onest manner, and by what an uninterested acci dent I happened to hear it; for thus it was : Beiiv about two and twenty years ago, in Amsterdam, went into a drrnking- house to drink a cup of bee for mv thirst, and sitting by the publick fire, among several people there hapned a seaman to- come i who seemg a friend of his there, who he knew went n the Greenland voyage, wondred to see him, be- cause it was not. yet time for the Greenland fleet to come home, and ask'd him what accident brought him home so soon : His friend ( who was the steer- man aforesaid in a Greenland ship that summer) told him that their ship went not out, to fish that, summer, but only to take in the lading of the whole fleet, to bring* it to an early market, & c. But, said he, before the fleet had caught fish enough to lade us, we, by order of the Greenland Company, sailed into the North Pole, and came back again . Where- upon ( his relation being novel to me) I entred dis- course with him, and seem'd to question the truth of what he said. But he did ensure me it was true, and that the ship was then in Amsterdam, and many of the seamen belonging to her, to justify the truth of it: And told me moreover, that thev sailed 2 degrees beyond the Pole. I askt him, if they found no land nor islands about the Pole ? He told me, No, there was a free and open sea! I askt him, if they did not meet with a great deal of ice ? He told me, No, they saw no ice. I askt him what weather they had there? He told me fine warm weather, such as was at Amsterdam in the summer time, and as hot. I should have askt him more questions, but that lie was ingaged in discourse with his friend, and I could not in modesty inter- rupt them Iohg'er. But I believe that the steer- man spoke matter of fact and truth, for he seenTd a plain honest and unaffectatious person, and one who could have no design upon me. But though I believe this story, yet methinks I hear many object against it, and are apt to urge three seeming reasons to prove it false, or at least some particulars of his relation. And first, that it. cannot be warm under the Pole, because that about Greenland, and many other parts less north- erly, the sea is so full of great bodies of ice, that ships can hardly sail for it. Secondly ; or if warm, yet not so warm as at Amsterdam in the summer time, because the farther northerly the colder wea ther. Thirdly ; or if they were under the Pole, that they could aot tell bow to come back, but that ATHENS. FroiW a Sermon ou the character and probable life of St. Paul at Alliens, ihe following Extract is taken We learn, from our contemplation of Athens, that civilization is not in itself adequate to the improvement of morality ; and that virtue does not keep pace with the progress of intellectual light. In Athens,- where the arts and sciences bad attained the highest perfection, and strangers resorted from all countries to increase their knowledge and im- prove their taste, the character of the citizens was as weak and insignificant as we can well imagine. Nor will this seem strange to us, when we consider that the melioration of man must begin with the heart; that, without moral cultivation, he is, with all bis knowledge and refined tasre, nothing more than a sagacious animal ; and that nothing but the true and pure knowledge of GOD can ennoble the mind. We should dishonour ourselves if we were to speak contemptuously of those arts which so well provide for the necessities of this life^ and consti- tute the honour and ornament of our age ; but we wish you to observe, that something more is- requi- site to render you good aud happy than a liberal education, and a proficiency in the various br inches of human knowledge. Nor need we visit Athens to be convinced that, a great understanding maybe allied to a base heart; and that a noble genius'and exquisite taste may he made subservient to the most detestable propensities. If intellectual cultivation were alone sufficient to promote morality— then ought the present age, in which no means of adorn ing the mind is neg'ected, to surpass in goodness every preceding generation : then ought our town: in which civilization is carried to its greatest height, to be more virtuous than our villages : then ought the rich and the noble to be examples o" morality and religion to their less- informed fellow countrymen: but who will dare to make tbe com parison ? Fathers and mothers ! forgive the' ear- nestness with which we admonish yon ; whatevei besides you cause your children to ( earn, in order that they may appear to advantage on the stage of time, let the principles of religion he impressed on their hearts; and do not suffer'them to remain ignorant of their relation to GOD, and tjieir dfs^ iqn- tion to a future World." My young friends, with all the zeal you manifest for the cultivation of your understandings and taste, keep your minds open to recei ve the truths of religion, and the instructions of JFSUS CHRIST. Then will your knowledge be sanctified, your hearts ennobled, and your happiv ness in time and eternity secured.'" NEW CHURCHES. © oronation jjermom The following Extract is from the Sermon preached by the Archbishop of York, at the Coro- nation of King Geoi- we the Fourth:— < c The justice which a Sovereign owes to his people makes it his duty to place able and consci- entious men in stations of trust and power; for ' when the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice." No nation can ever be happy at home, or respected abroad, unless its councils and laws are administered by the prudent and the honest, by the moral and the religious: and though virtue ian 1 piety have higher rewards than it is in the power of man to bestow, yet it is the most essential service which a Sovereign can render to a State, to encou- rage morality and religion by a marked and uni- form preference in the distribution of dignity and power. If, indeed, those who surround the Throne, and ought to reflect its lustre^ if those whose, sta- tion makes them at once objects of envy and imitation— if such men are worthless or wicked, the influence of their example will extend itself in every direction, and profligacy, originating in this source, will be rapidly diffused through all the gradations of society. It is this condition of a people— this general depravity of morals, which is the last calamity that can befal a State— when tbfe whole mass is corrupted, no excellency of Political Institutions, no wisdom of the Legislator, uo justice of the Ruler, can be of any avail. The influence of law is always less powerful than the restraints, of conscience; and how, indeed, shall the laws of man be enforced in a community where the laws of Goo are set at defiance ? Sucn a State may for a time be distinguished by every The following is a copy of the Third Report of his . Majesty's Commissioners appointed bv virtue of an Act of Parliament, passed in. the 58th year of the reign of his late Majesty King George the Third, c. 45, entitled, " An Act for building and promoting the building of additional Chuich'cs in populous Parishes." His Majesty's Commissioners, in their last Report, set forth, that ten new Churches and Chapels had been completed, at the several places therein men- tioned, and that the same were capable of accommo- oating four thousand and eightv- one persons in pews, and ninethousand nine hundred & forty- nine poor per- sons in free seats; and that six of such churches and chapels had been consecrated, and that divine service as performed therein; that thirty churches and hapels were then building; that plans had been pproved by his Majesty's Commissioners for ten other churches and chapels; and that, as soon as tenders for the performance of the several works should be received, and selections made therefrom, nd the usual contracts and bonds formed upon them, the construction of the buildings would begin. His Majesty's Commissioners also set forth, in the said Report, that plans for 23 other churches and chapels had been laid before them for their consider ation; and that, inaddition to the number of churches nd chapels which they proposed to build, according to their preceding Ileport, they deemed it expedient, owing to the vt^ y peculiar circumstances attending the places, id build churches or chapels at Atter- clitfe, in the county of York ; Bishop Weannoiith, n the county of Durham ; Greenwich, in the county f Kent; Highgate, , in the county of Middlesex; nd in the parish of St. Andrew, Holboi n, in the eity f London, and county of Middlesex ; hoping that by th'e strictest attention to economy, and by the measures which they had adopted for preventing any excess beybn. d the estimates, in the erection of the churches and. chapels which were then building, they might be able to defray, out of the present Parlia- mentary giant, the expense of affording church accommodation at those places where it was so much Wanted. His Majesty"** Commissioners have since the las Report, proceeded in ihe'.^ sWuUon of the important duties confided to ; hem,' with as' milch dispatch as the ircumstances of tlie several cases would permit ; luring which time, churches or chapels, have been consecrated at the following places*: In the parish of St. Martin, in the town of Birmingham ;• Walcot, in the city of Ba'h; Cliristchurch, in the county of Southampton ; Stepney, in the county of Middlesex ; Btirdesley, in the parish of Aston, and county of Warwick ; Barnsley, in the county of York ; Ha war- den, in the county of Flint; in the parish of St. Mary, Nottingham: and at Portsea^' it/ the county of South-' ampion ; in which divine service is performed. The ' burehes or chapels already* built afford a< commodu ion for seven thousand one hundred and sixteen persons in pews, and for fourteen thousand three " undred and ninety- nine poor persons in free seats by wYiieh it would appear that the accommodation for the poor is full two- thirds of the entire nuinbe of sittings.

In the last Report it was stated, that a second new chapel was to be built at Btackhu n, in the county of Lancaster, to accommodate two thousand persons but owing to the number of townships within th< parish of Blackburn, bis Majesty's Commissioners < have deemed it expedient that three chapels should be built instead, to accommodate one thousand per- sons each, which they expect will be erected for less than the. large church would have cost,. His Majesty's Commissioners have further to state, that they are taking measures for the purpose of ob- taining additional burial grounds—- for tlie pyrish of Bifstall, in the- county oi' •• York; for the parish of Rochford, in the county of Essex; Grantham, iu the county of Lincoln ; in the pa. rjsh of St. Mary, in the town of . Shrewsbury ; a site for a new chapel, with a burial ground, for the parish of Whitwick', in the county of Leicester; a site for a new chapel, and a parsonage fit Wedmore, in the county of Somerset: they propose to advance, by way of loan, to the town of Brighton, the sum of fifteen thousand pounds for five years, without interest, to enable the inhabitants tfi erect a new church, the ex pense of which will be borne by. the parish ; they have also lent the sum of £ 2,000 for four years to the town of Walsall, without interest, to enable the inhabitants to defray the ex* penseof rebuilding, and enlarging the parish church, which additional accommodation for about one thousand poor persons in free seats has been pro- vided. His Majesty Commissioners have assigned an ec- clesiastical district to a chapel at Winiaton, in the parish of Ryton, and county of Durham ; and appli- cations have been made to them for dividing the parish of Walcot, in the city of Baih, into three separate anc^ distinct parishes ; and the parish of St. John, Hackney, in the county of Middlesex, into three separate and distinct parishes, which applica- tions his Majesty's Commissioners have approved. The Exchequer Bills which have been issued to this day amount to the sum of £ 257,450. It will be observed by this Report, that fifteen churches or chapels have been completed ; \ hn\ forty- four are in progress ; that plans for nine churches or chapels have been approved,' but the works have, not been commenced ; thai plans for sixteen churches or chapels are under consideration ; and that plans for twelve churches or chapels have not yet. I? een ob. tained ; but the several c. ases are more particularly specified and set forth V the schedules annexed. His Majesty's Commissioners deem it necessary to annex to this, as they have done to the two former Reports, a distinct Schedule containing a list of ap- plications, which have been made to them from various places for aid towards affording'' further church accommodation ; but which, owing to the engagements made on the Parliamentary J'tmd, his Majesty's Commissioners have been under the necessity of rejecting; and a great trranv other parishes have been deterred from making similar applications, being aware that, for the same reason, they must prove unsuccessful.

THE ROYAL FAMILY OF SPAIN. ( Prom u a Visit to Spain / detailing the transac- tions which occurred in that countryy in. the'latter part of t& tfty and the Jiisl four months of 1823.' V BY M. J QIIN, BARRISTER- AT- LATV, SEE. " One day I happened to be in the square before the palace^ vyhen 1 observed a number of slate car- nages going towards the principal entrance. I was told that the King and the Whole of the Royal Family were just about to take their usual pr\) mena. tlefl and I had the curiosity to see how they appeared, The We understand that a check w as paid by Messrs. Fuller and Co. a few days ago, under the following circumstances:— It bad been originally drawn for £ 3, which sura, by means of some chemical pro- cess, had been discharged, and £ 200 inserted instead. A question has arisen whether the loss should fall upon the. bankers or the drawers of the check. Some bankers have adopted an effectual! mode of preventing similar frawUf, and which should be brought into general use. The check, contai. ing the names, & c. of the firm, is printed ou coloured paper, so that any attempt lo take out the ink hy a chemical process would remove the colour also. principal: entrance is a gateway, which, during the day- time, is a common thoroughfare, as it leads to the interior square of the palace, in which all the offices of state are jituated. On the right hand is the grand staircase : it was lined with battl. e- axe guards ; a party of the carabineers before noticed, and four or five grenadiersv occupied the. lower steps, and stood on each side of the King's carriage, which was in waiting. The in. fauirv guards were drawn up in the sqiia i e beftife pal. JM? e. and a body of horse- guards, to the iiSliiilier b/. hve or six and tvyenty, was waiting also iii the square to escort ( i e, to gtiard) the royal carriages In the passage there were, two or three military men in undress, and seven or eight old ifome. n, who . were waiting to present ineinorials to the King; th(> uo, h they could scarce"] y have been ig- norant t bat tlw; time for ask iii g favours from the King ;- of Spstiii Was'parsed. After waiting' some time, the K^ n^ and Queen descended the staircase, attended by several officers of stale, in full dress; dark blue coats, turned up with criinsah, laced with gold, in the usual military fashion, white breeches, and white silk stockings. Such, was also the dress of the King, in addition to whieh h^ wore sv blue riband over his left Shoulder, and a star oh his breast,. The Queei^, a slight, g- enteel fio tire, with a small round cotinte- naiice, feminine and timid, and not more, I should think, than 18 or 19 years old^ appeared in a pink satin hat, very plain, and a blue silk mantle, edged with ermine, which covered ihe remainder of her dress. Her face has a mild beauty in it, which strongly interests a spectator. It looked on this oc- casion pale, and oppressed with inward suffering The face of the King isjemarkable for the vacancy — I fear 1 must say, the deformity of its expression. The chin and lower lip protrude considerably beyond the line of the upper features, and seem scarcely to belong to them. The upper lip is enveloped in must;\ chios; and yet, with these features almost of the dumb animal tribe, there is a mixture of intellr- gence, loftiness, 1 and feebleness in his eye, which indicates a very peculiar character. Two of the officers of state placed themselves at each side of the carriage door, offering their shoul- ders to the assistance of her Majesty, while getting in. 1 observed that she merely took the hand of the King, and got in, not without some effort, without availing herself of the assistance proffered by the officers of state. She smiled not ; she scarcely looked around her, and addressed not a syllable to any body. Toe King, who is, a good portly figure, before he followed the Queen, looked around like a man who wished to give an • npression that he was a free agent, but who betrayed his real state of duress by a certain awkwardness which lie could not control. He was as reserved and silent as the Queen. There is only one step, which is firmly fixed outside, beneath the door of the carriage, and this is so high that both their Majesties were obliged to ascend to it by means of a footstool. The footstool was then strapped behind, where it hung dangling as the carriage drove off. Before he left the palace, his Majesty put out his hand, from the window,--. and received the several petitions which were presented to him. I was rather surprised that this custom was permitted to remain, as it might easily have been made the vehicle of private communications to the King, which the whole system of the household was framed to intercept. Don Carlos, the King's eldest brother— and very like him, with the exception that his figure is short— his wife and family, followed in the second coach, equally reserved. Don Francisco and his consort followed in the third. He has a good face, but a short figure. In getting in he gave one or t wo of the officers a nod of recognition, and forced a smile into his countenance^ which seemed to be very little valued by those for whom it was meant. Don Francisco was popular before Ihe 7th of July; but since that time his star has grown pale. The three carriages rolled away without a cheer, or an expression of any sort from the persons present. They were immediately joined by three other state carriages, filled with the officers of the household, and the whole cavalcade was attended by the escort already noticed. The, infantry received it respectful manner, the band playing, and the stand- ard lowered as it passed. Thus the King and the Royal Family took their ides every afternoon— the weather permitting— thus attended— thus guarded. If they had amongst them a spark of sentiment, they must have envied the humblest cottager whom they met on their road, tor he was free to breathe the mountain air, and totiirn the head of his mule to whatever point of tbe compass he pleased."

It turns red, like turnsol, when exposed to a stream of carbonic acid gas. It is more advantageous for dyeing than the blue of violets, on account of the greater quantity of colouring matter which each flower yields ; and it is said that the tint is much more beautiful.

Of cultivated land they pos. scss 29,000 acres ; of land yet uncnllivatedS l^ oou acres; they occupy 1200 bouses in town, and double that number in tbe country; they have 174,000 sheep, 415 horses, and of other rattle, 48,000 ; they have 315 colonial ships in constant employ- ment, and have netted 111 trade a capital of £ 150,000. HUNT'S ROASTED CORN—" IT is surprising," observes tbe correspondent of a Morning Paper, " that the respectable part of the Press should so long have remained silent ou the DRAIN lately established 0: 1 the pockets of Ihe London public by the notorious HUNT, Five or six shops have al- ready been opened by tills self- styled patriot, where his " roasted corn" is blazoned forth as aff ording an economical breakfast, & c. But the public have yet lo learn what this CHAMPION OF THE OPPRESS KD proposes to effect by tbe sort of economy he so DISINTERESTEDLY inculcates. Docs lie come forward aud avow himself to be receiving several hundreds per cent, profit drawn from the pockets of the poor? No ; this is a secret that forms that part of his patriotism which he chooses lo reserve lo himself. Why then the pla in fact is, that for EVERY SHILLING HUNT thus preys on the poor man's earnings for, he returns something considerably under the value of TWO- PENCE, labour, fuel, and all expenses, with a reasonable profit, included. For the proof of this, a pint of wheat, or other grain, bought at a corn chandler's and roasted in a clean frying pan ( in the absence of a coffee roaster) until it attains a dark brown colour, will produce, when ground, a wholesome and nutritious material for breakfast when boiled like coffee, instead of paying perhaps one thousand per cent, profit for it to a humbug Patriot."
