Dr. Smith told him there was not the least danger in the world. Before he had taken the Dropsthree weeks, the running had nearly ceased, and four small bottles made a safe cure.

Notwithstanding these advantages, and the fact that the consumption of Rrhish Manufactures has been trebled in the last thirty years, still, during that period, few Manufacturing Esta- blishments have been formed The Company have no power to Manufacture; but their object is to Erect Miils, Factories, Potteries, & c. in the most eligible situations, to furnish them with the most, approved Machinery, and then to let them to re- spectable individuals, who will thus he enabled to employ inactive Manufacture their entire capital, which other- wise must, to a considerable extent, he sunk in Buildings and expensive Machinery— This mode of employing the Capital of the Company " will secure to the Shareholders a certain and tangible property, while they are protected by the provisions of the Act from any liability, beyond the actual amount of the Shares they may possess. ' Tile great improvements which have lieen recently made in the Machinery connected with Manufactures, especially those of Cotton, Woollen, Silk, ami Flax, wiil give to any Establishment now availing itself of them, a decided advantage over those ill which they do not exist, or have been only partially introduced.

( From the Q. iotidknna) The change which ue fciresaw as likely to take places in the spirit of our external policy, is beginning to show - itself. Public rumour announces, the renewal of negotia- tions wilh St. ijomiugo am) tlie acknowledgment of the South A( nerican St; j!>:-:. Oil. the • vth& thand the embassy . sil Lisbon is changed inioa I'- gatldn • f the second- order, M. De N. niville, who. defended the Filench system at the Cabinet of Lisbon being replaced. A diplomatic change has also taken place with resjiect to Spain, the intention and consequence of which ure as yet unknown to us. The result, however, from these facts is, that the Minister being embarrased by the consequences of his financial pro- jects, has been forced to make concession. He wants money at anv price, and promises, therefore, to the pre- vailing libera! feeling the acknowledgment of South Ame- rica, and a treaty with St. Domingo. Though the reports - oil this, subject be false, yet the rise in the Rentes must prove that the project of M. de Villele owes its triumph to the. concessions spoken of, the bare hope of which im- proves the course of the 3 per Cents. Let unfortunate ••• Spain be to- morrow disinherited by France herself of her colonies, and let the revolt of St. Domingo be sanctioned, and you will immediately see the 3 per Cents, rise to 80 - or 85." Emigration to the Canadas appears to be increasing at a very rapid rate. On the 2Gth of May, 1824, reckoning from the beginningof that year, 31 vessels, the total burden -. of whioh was 7,715 tons had arrived at Quebec, bringing out only 45 settlers. Up to the same date in the present year, 211 vessels had arrived, tonnage 59,274, and with •: 2,157 settlers on board. Tbe latest letters from . Madrid state that several of the most wealthy merchants have quitted the capital, from a dread of being made sufferers by a forced loan. They had previously realised their property in ihe French funds. It appears that in order to ascertain who are the persons able to pay largely, Ferdinand has summoned all the principal hankers of Madrid before an Alcade de Carte, to make oath as to what merchants negotiate most foreign paper. A conspiracy has been discovered at Saragossa, and forty persons have been thrown into dungeons. At Bilboa there have been dreadful scenes, and many lives have been lost. One of these letters gives an explana- tion of the reported seizure of the Portuguese ambassa- dor's papers, at Aranjuez. It appears that he had been . preparing despatches for Lisbon, when three members of the garde du corps, disguised in plain clothes, entered his apartment, and took possession of them. His excel- lency, however, succeeded ia gaining possession of them before they had been opened, and immediately sent in- formation of the outrage to this court, by an extraordinary . courier. Trieste, June 27 The latest news from Zante are to the 17th of June. They state that the Captain Pacha, after the loss he suffered near Capo d'Oro, has arrived at Suda, in the isle of Candia, where he was observed by . JSaclitury. ' No letter makes any mention of his appear- ance in the Ionian Seas. SPORTING.

THE CHIRU, OR SUPPOSED UNICORN or NEPAL. The unsuccessful investigations of modern times are by no means conclusive evidence against the accuracy of an- cient information,; and we are not warranted in condemn- ing former statements as false, merely becausethey have not been verified by recent observation. Although, there- fore, research has hitherto failed to convert the unicorn into the creature of any thing but heraldry, and the pro- bability is very strong that the animal has no local habi- tation, notwithstanding Father Lobo'- i assertion, that he had seen it, yet it would be- very unphilosophical to treat every report to that effect with ridicule, and refuse to avail ourselves of any reasonable chance for determining so problematical and interesting a fact. ' file latest accounts from Nepal which v/ e have observed communicated to the Asiatic Society, seem to tend to- wards a confirmation of the existence of an animal, which was so far the unicorn, that it was single horned. The figure, however, as delineated by the rude artists of the Himalaya, was very unlike the taper creature that sup- ports the royal arms, and appeared to be something be- tween a clumsy antelope and a goat. The fact of its hav- ing one horn depended wholly on native evidence; and no very competent testimony had yet been obtained on . this unusual conformation. It was of course not to be expected that the enquiry would rest here; and the same intelligent zeal that had so far conducted the enquiry, would, there was no doubt con- tinue it, until something like certainty had been obtained. This we are happy to say has been the case; and however much the lovers of the marvellous may be disappointed, • we confess we have great satisfaction in learning, that the Chiru of Nepal is certainly not the unicorn. The follow- ing information, derived from the same quarter to which we have been indebted for that previously obtained, has . been obligingly communicated to us. " Whether the animal c lied Chiru by- the Bhoteas was, as they asserted, the unicorn or not, the horns which they ptoduced,- proved that they spoke of no imaginary ereature, and warranted every ejtertion to discover the animal to FIGHT BETWEEN SHELTON AND BROWN, AT STONEYSTAI FOllF., T UESDA Y LAST, FOR ill 00 A- SIDE. On stripping the difference between the. men was very obvious. Shelton,,. though well trained, was thin and worn. His Joins and legs showed'; the want of stamina. Browne peeled almost a Hercules; his shoulders heavy and full of good hard stuff; his arms muscular ami lengthy ; his loins strong ; and his legs perhaps rather fine for the size of his upper works, but well shaped- He had every point of a good man; his game and capa- bility of giving and taking were soon to be put to the proof. Round 1. Shelton threw himself into attitude, resting on the right leg— his left hand prepared tor mischief Browne planted himself right well for a novice, but with- out the finish of the school; both hands were up to the head, and his object seemed to be to coyer his lace from the slashing counters which Shelton wag sure to make With his eye firmly fixed < 011 Shelton's, he waited wjjth gallant composure for the attack. Sparring for a mom tit. Shelton began by sending out his left, but Browne's head was too securely entrenched behind his hands to be got at Shelton paused for an instant, anil then started left and right, made the latter tell slightly, but Browne, as quick thought, returned upon him and caught him on the side of the head with the right hand, so hard that Shelton reeled away and staggered down. ( Immense cheering for the yeung one.) Shelton, 011 his second's knee, showed first blood, and a cut, as if picked by a chisel, on the upper part of the head. 2. Browne, pleased with himself, smiled, and put his head again behind the bulwark of his hands, and waited fiir it is man. Shelton, let into a secret, saw he had no chance unless he could hit the countryman out of time, and made himself up for a good one. Again he made plays but Browne stopt his rush, and broke away actively. Shelton would go in to a rally. Browne was with him, and told him out twice 011 the head. Shelton planted a smart facer, but as he delivered his right hand, was countered upon at length with a desperate hit on the chest near the throat, antl floured like an ox at Smithfield. Shouts for Browne, and ten to five begging upon him. 3. Browne held the same guard, looking out and laugh- ing. Shelton impetuous, made strong play left and right but Browne got his legs bacfc, kept his hands still up and saved himself. Well stopped indeed. Shelton sparred for an opening, let fly anti caught his man on the nose ( Bravo, old one.) He was about to rush in boldly, but was brought to order by Hudson, who prayed him to be steady. Hudson, with his broad frontispiece streaming under the influence of the heat, pointing to Browne, de- clared he was as fat as himself, and begged Shelton to let him Tua to oil in the sun. Browne made a show of fight-. ing, working his right arm in a crescent round his head. Shelton was ready tor him, tried lo plant his left hand, and then went in to rally left and right. Browne gave a free exchange, but both were so eager that they closed without mischief, when Browne tin owing his arm round Shelton's body whipped him up like a sack," and threw him terribly on ( he ground. The shock Was heard in every part of the ring, and the sound which issued « jVom Sheltori's chest was only to be compared to the last ifroan of an expiring bellows in the Cyclops' smithy— 3 to 1 on Browne. 4. Browne's streaming nose showed that he had got his share, but he smiled as gaily ae at starting. Shelton, ever game, went - to work at once, and brought his irian to a rally, Browne, all alive, fought with him, bored him to the ropes where they elosed, and tried the best of infighting. Browne's weight was toomtieh, and Shelton endeavoured to get away, but Browne caught him be- tween the ropes and punished him severely. Shelton, nearly on the ground, was quite defenceless; Browne lifted his arm, refused fostrike, and let him drop between them ( Immense applause.) 5. IJrowne saw he had reduced his man so much that he might lead a little, safely went in for work. Shellon was called on to be ready. Both made themselves- up for des- perate hits. Shelton shot out his blow, and missed; at the same instan t Browne attempted to deliver a right hand on the head, which, had it reached, would probably have ended Shelton's life; but happily i: t passed aside, arid both men overreached, fell head foremost. 6. The fighting at both sides was unusally quick. Shel- ton made play, but Brot- ne stopped him and got away.— when he knocked his man down back- handed. Could he have repeated that dose, he would have stood well to win. The fighting was uncommonly. quick, as, allowing for the half- minute time, the fifteen rounds were fought ill seven aiinules. Look out, aspirants to the Championship, fur . a mighty stranger has appeared amongst you | Ward win for Can- non— or Cannon wiq for Ward— Peter Crawley pick np the conqueror, and win from either— still your work islo lie done, and- the great struggle for the beltis before you ! If Browne can sland against a fresher man as he did Kgainst. Shelton yesterday, we know not who can beat him. He h is every point of a good man about him— lie has height, weight, and muscle ; his temper teems to be good — his game unquestionable; he is quick with both hands ••— can take as well as give. lie looks the Champion ; he has the air and bearing ofa man worthy of that high ti- tle, and his character and conduct are said to be good, and render him still more worthy of it. He must watch him- self with the best- going at once, to let the world see what he really is made of; and if he have the good sense to keep in the strict path, and listen only to what is right, he stands fair to be the first above the first. Ward was present at the fight with his trainer. He says his condition is excellent, and makes certain of win- ning from Cannon. The fight takes place nyU Tuesday. The Hon fight, with six mastiffs, is appointed for the 2Gth, at Warwick. A theatre has been built to hold 10,000 people for the occasion. GENERAL ELECTION. In anficipaton of a General Election during the pre- sent year, several candidates have already announced themselves. Among the number are the following: RAPE or BRAJIBER AND BOROUGH OF SHOREHAM. - Col. Lloyd, retires; Mr.' Howard, the Duke of Norfolk's nephew, arid Mr. Sugdeii, the Chancery Barrister, can- didates. REAPING-- Mr. Henniker has retireilifrom the canvass for this borough, although confident of success, rather than bind; himself to-' the support of the Catholics. LANCASHIRE.- T- U is said that Mr. Blaclfburne retires from this county, - and that the Chancellor of the Exche- quer has been invited to succeed him. CITY OF LINCOLN J. Levelt, Esq. r. f Wichnor, has started for this city. LICHFIELD Nicophilus Level L F, sq. has offered him- self for this city, and commenced his carivass. which they belonged. Interest was therefore made with j Tw - f large a carcase, got his legs back very the local authorities to assist in the search, and inducements fast Browne sef , aml smile( 1* in- S?, elton hit olft the animal. Accordingly „„,• ' _„,' „„ - „,..,.. , - held out to travellers to procure the animal. Accordingly . a few days since, the skin ot'the Chiru was sent to the Re- sident, with the horns attached, proving the animal to be 110 unicorn, but a noble antelope, ofa species apparently new. There was 110 possibility of procuring it alive, as it frequents the most inaccessable parts of the snowy moun- tains, and is exceedingly vigilant, and easily alarmed. It - is found in the haunts- of the muskdeer, and sometimes as- - sociating with them. " It is added, that though the animal produced is bicorn- .- ate, yet that some of the species are unicorns ; a rather odd assertion, which, however, is stoutly maintained. Every one, therefore, will, for the production of the present minimal, augur every thing or nothing for the existence of . the unicorn, according to his particular fancy. This only seems necessary— that the name Chiru, and the horns ^ abundance of which have, been furnished) should for the present be given to the Incarnate animal, and the ultimate • right of participation in either, due to the unicorn, left to ihe decision of time. It is much to be regretted that the skin was sent doubled up in such a manner ( and suffered to stiffen in that state) that the figure of the animal to which it belonged can hardly be conjectured— nay, the probable size even will be obtained, if at all, by painful measurement of such parts as are not shrivelled ; and a . comparison by analogy must filly up the due dimensions of those parts that are so. The animal is an antelope, not a deer. Il is a male, his colour slaty, , er bluish grey, ill. • clined to red, especially on thejbadk. His hair, which is . about an Itrcfa long, and exceedingly thick, has a good . deal of that quill- tike, hollow appearance and. feel, that = eharacterize the musk deer's - hair; - but it is softer and • shorter than that animal's. , It resemliles as nearly as •( Possible the hair of the Nowah, or wild sheep of Bhote, in colour texture, and feel; and like the Novvah,'.; con- ceals a spare fleece of very . soft wool lying close to the ani- mal's skin. The forehead is nearly black, ami so are the logs; the belly white,. and scut nearly so. The sent in • size and shape deer- tike. The horns are placed very near « ack other entirely at the- back of the head, and with that side uppermost upon which the annular marks are • the larger. " The most remarkable feature in the animal's figure is the excessive length of the neck which, is almost half of the whole body. " The dimensions, so fiir as they can - be taken from so shrivelled a skin, are as follows. " The . skin itself will probably be sent down by and bye, from which a more accurate description can be made ; but to guard against .. contingencies, the present . one may , suffice. F. 1.

The principal deficiency is that of thebulk of • the hotly, its depth and circumference, neither of which can be obtained fem ( he present skill. Admitting the Chiru, however, - to be an antelope, the general notion we have of that animal's figure, taken in . connexion wilh . the proportions above given, will enable ail adept in the . comparative anatomy ef animals, to deduce probably, the • entire size ef the Cliiru with tolerable correctness. " This is riie rather to be attempted, because it is very [ Unlikely that we shall soon obtain a living subject :; and as long as skins only are brought, there seems very little ' . chance of one mare perfect than the present ever rsach- Catuianduu." THE XKW JURY BILL. Our readers will obtain the most accurate idea of all one, t » o, and was returned on in the same fashion, and was knocked down once more by a blow on the chest 4 to 1 on Browne. 7. This round was fiercely contested: both men made I heir heavy right- handed blows, then got out of distance, but soon came to work in a despefate rally-; both punished and distressed ; wild and scrambling hitting. Shelton getting the worst of it, turned away to the ropes Browne followed him, but could not get in time for mis- chief Shellon seeing his intentions, let'himself down in a corner. 8. The fighting was all one way. Shelton falling to make his left hand hit out one, two, and Browne always ready returned the same, and was sure to bring his man down with the right. In this round, after some slashes in a smart rally, Shelton astonished tile ring by hilling Browne clean off his legs bv a bark- handed blow on the mouth, which set his teeth a chattering just at the mo- ment he was going down himself by a lunge 011 the ribs, which told desperately against him. Great applause for Shelton. ( This was the only knock- down blow given up to this time by Shelton.) 9. It was evident that Browne did not like the conclu- sion of the last round. He came up not quite so gay as usual, while Shelton, proud of so great an exploit, seemed to recover in his o » n, as well as in his friends' opinions. Shelton made first plav. Browne was with him, and after a short rally both became entangled in the ropes— Sllelton under. Browne's superiority was here quite evi- dent, for he got his man's head bound up with the rope, while h. e administered dreadful punishment when he pleased. S'lelton scarcely able to make a return, or de- fend himself, was extricated from his desperate situation by Hudson, who pulled the ropes to let him down. This was resented bv Spring, and while Cribb and Crawley were attending the men, Spring and Hudson had a- turn- up, in which blows were exchanged, hut no mischief— This was a signal for a general breaking in of the ring, and the whole body of countryfolk, pickpockets, and trampers, rushed in for their share of the fun or the mis- chief However, through the exertions - of tho. innpiros, Spring and Hudson were brought to order, find the whips of the fighting men soon cleared out the ring again. 10. Shelton stood up, but was floored Instantly by a right handed round hit the head. 11. A wild- rally, in - which neither fought with judg. ment.

He ni. umeuvretf for a hit, and planted his left hacil flush in the face, but was caught with a right hand hit in the body, which almost doubled him up. Slieiton broke away to recover a hit, then- Came in for a rally, which terminated, as ii: every other round, by being hit dflw- n. • IS. It was clear that the old one could not win , but he still fought on with spirit, as Browne's wind seemed to be touched a little from his exertions. Shelton made play, anil measured to plant his right, but was stopped, and countered upon bv a desperate hit on the centre of the " head, which sent - him down and nearly took the fight out of him. 14. Shelton, anxious to begin, brought his man to an open rally. Browne fought with - him, and sending out his deadly rightjhand as Shelton bored in, caught'llim in the- tbioat, and dropped him as if shot. This was enough for a giant; and to make it more decisive, Shel tort's head came first to the ground, the shock of which seemed, to be communicated in agony to his whole frame. 45. The last Www was a finisher. Shelton was " brought up again only to - be levelled. Nature refused to assist him further;; and after a fruitless attempt to get him on his legs, Hudson gave in fiir him, after fourteen minutes fighting. REMARKS. Youth must be served.

" The Edinburgh Philosophical Journal j^ st published, con tains an elaborate arid masterly paper bv Ors. Turner and Christison, on gas light, Jt relates chitfly lo file con- struction and • Management of 4uriters, but embraces various other collateral matters. The construction . of burners, which had hithefo scarcely been subjected to scientific research, has a most impor- tant influence 011 the consumption of the gas. So much have companies been hitherto in the dark 011 this subject, that bv tlie mere difference 011 the form of the burners, ten volumes of some works afford as much light as fifteen . volumes in others. The first object ofthe two chemists was lo obtain a correct measure to the light produced, be- cause upon this the accuracy of all their other conclusions depended, Th? olyect, Uiey observe., tlie processes employed, is to produce as vivid, or, In other words, as intense and white a light as possible. With this view it has'been thought advantageous to increase the supply of air, by enlarging the centrical apei ture in argand burners, or by lessening the distance between the flame and the glass coyer which serves as 11 chimney— that is by con, trading the ( Jiameier » if the chimney. They find, how. ever that by a contrary process— by contracting the cen- tral- air aperture— though the intensity of the light is di- minished. The flame is so much elongated, that the ac- tual illumination produced by the same expenditure of gas is increased. Thus an Edinburgh coal gas burner, whose air aperture was 0 50ths. of a square inch, had its flame elongated from two Inches to three, and its lumi- nating power increased from S06to 2GG, by contracting the air apsrture to I- 50th. | n anolher case, by reducing the aperture from 30 part to 6, the light was increased from 452 to 6G5, or ner, rl v one third. After the fl ime, however, exceeds a certain height, which is different fir . coal and for oil gas, thereis. nothing gained by diminish*, ing the supply of air. Coal Gas— Exjieritaeuts were made with a single jet, and It was found that when the length ofthe flame was jwried from two lo six inches, the amount of light afforded by cqtial expenditn're'i\ i'gas- was as follows:— Flame 2 inch. 3 iuijh. 4 . inch. 5 inch, ( i iu/.- h. Light i'lp IW 131 l. iO J50 Nothing was.' gained Of elongating the flame beyond five inches. Oil Gas used ina rfngtept. Afforded similar result*, viz: Flnme finch. 2 inch. 3 inch. 4 inch. 5. inch. Light _ iu. l JftJ- 150 181 IT. tr The maximum - effect was at 4 inches! and at this elevn. tion the light from the same quantity pf gas was nearly twice as great as at oneiiieh. The specific gravity of the gas employed was Util. With argand or circular burners the gain is still greater when the flame is heightened. With coat gas and a five holed burner it was-^ Flame } inch. 1 inch. S inch. 3 inch. 4 inch, Light • ( 00 2 « 2 560. 582 582 Hence we see that the light afforded by the same quan- tity of gas was nearly six times as great at 3 inches as at half an inch. Specific gravity of coal gas used G05. With oil gY( r( sji. gr. 910.) ami a fifteen holed burner ( Edinburgh Oil Gas Co.. No, 1.) it was— Flnme i inch. 1 inch. 11 inch. 2 inch. 2$ inch. Cight ^ 100 HH 3iT 4(>' l 4U8 It is quite evident, as fhe writers of the Paper observe, that the principles now developed vitiate till the experi- ments hitheito made to determine the relative light of dif- ferent kinds or qualities of gas, because they shew til it the accuracy of the comparison depended on facts- which the experimenters could not think of attending to. Jet Holes— The next point to which uur chemists at- tended is the stoe of the jet holes. They . find that the diameter best fitted for a single jet is ab/' tit l - 2fjjlj of ail inch for coal, and 145th for oil gas. The same quantity of oil gas which, produced 100 parts of light with a 45lh jet hole, produced only 85 parts, with a- fiOth jethole. In argand burners Ihe jet holes require lo be a little smaller. They consider the best size to be about a 32d of an inch for coal gas of ( 190 specific gravity, when there are 10 holes in circle of G- lOttjs diameter; aud 1.50th for oil gas from 900 to 1000 specific gravity, when there are 15 holes ii) a circle of G- lGths. But a coarser gas re- quires a larger hole, oil gas of 680 burning better with it hole of J- 40th. Argand Hunters have some advantage in point of eco- nomy- over single jets, wljeo the flames are so close that they meet, but, not otherwise. To meet, simply, how- ever, is not enough, for much is gained bv bringing the jets nenrer and nearer. A burner of £ filths of ail inch diameter was drilled with 8, 10, 15, 20, and 25 holes of a 50' th of an inch, swu! tile quantities ui' light afforded by equal expenditures of oil gns were— ' 4 holes. 10 hole*. 15 holes. 20 IJOIps. 25 holes. 9. S III) 13 i 111 139 A . single jet vritli. tbe. same expenditure'j) F gas gave 100 parts of light1. Uence, it appear* that 110 advantage is gained by aoaibinipg the jets in wi. a/ gand burner of this size, if the holes are only 8 in ajnnliar: for a single jet supplied with tjie same quantity of gas gives as much light. But when the holes are increased to 15 or 20, there- is a gain of more than one third. The distance which our chemists recommend between gas holes of l- 50ib ia 12-. J00ths of 011 inch. Coal gus burners do not require so many apertures as those for oil cas, because the greater width ofthejuiles compensates f# r their smaller number. The Glass Chimney— When the boles are distant, as in the 5 holed - Edinburgh gas burners, the naked tlame gives as much light as with a cliinjne\ j the only use of the latter in such a case being to render the flame steady. The burners of 8 and., 10 holes give most light with a glass 14 inch in diameter j and that of 15 holes gives must light with a glass of an inch anil two tenths. Comparative Light of Coal and Oil Gas.— Coal gns ill London has a specific gravity about 430 or 440. In Kdin- burgh it ia much superior, the average of twenty trials giving exactly G00v; but its quality is believed to be- pretty uniform at each manufactory. Our chemists tjjink that the manufacture of oil gas is less perfect, and hence its quality varies lr. ore in different hands, and from day. to day in the same work. Instances are gii. en of its . varying from 4Gt up to 1.10. As• file .. quality of both gases. changes so much, and as so many circumstances affect the accuracy of the experiments made, it is not surprising that widely different conclusions have been come to. The authors of the paper before us making use of albthe precautions which their own experiments had suggested, . give t- jjc following as the result.;— A 5 inch jet of coal'gas burnt through of aperture of I - 28thinch, was con) pared. ji'ith a 4 inch jet of oil g; is liyrnt through an aperture of 1.45th. The light afforded I'V an equal quantity of each gas was found to ke— eatlgq/ tJOQ oil gas J8. in anotji, r experiment the result .. svaij, coal gas 100— oil gas 223. Tile specific gravity of the coal gas was 578, lh. it of the oil gas !) 10. They think oil gas may be manufactured permanently of this quality. With argand burners tjlie rusult was nearly the same. Rut as the coal gas used seems to have been rather below ihe average quality of that made here, and the oil gas rather above it, perhaps we may withe,' any material error assume the relative Illuminating power of coal andoil gas made in Edinburgh tpbe as 1 to2. The article contains siihiegood remarks 011' the comparative economy ofthe two specie& ol' gas, and of their effects 011 household articles and tiie human frames* 4> ut for , these we cannot find rpom.

COMBINATIONS, MURDER— On Thursday morning week, between eight and nine o'clock, a party of ruffians, about 14 or 15 in number, armed with bludgeon?, attacked three men near the Gas Works, at the draw- bridge, near llingsend, Dub- lin. It appears that fiir some time threats had been held out against . the apprentices in Mr. Morton, the ship- builder's, employment, he having taken a greater number than the combinators, according to their rules and regu- lations, allow. About the hour above- mentioned, the men, armed with oak- sticks, were seen under the walls of the gus concerns, and the principal object of their vengeance was a young lad, named Andrew Merchant, an apprentice ;. the villains left'hirn in such a deplorable state, that he died jij a short time afterwards. The sccond person is an aged man, a joiner, of the name of Richard Neale, also ill the employment of Air. Morton ; he lies in a melan- choly situation. The third person happened merely to be on the road, and having, in consequence of the noise, lookeil back to see tlie cause, and having been observed, some of the party folhuyed him ; he made his way into a field- j h e was pursued, knocked down, and dreadfully beaten ; he now lies dangerously wounded in the head and • Various parts of the body. A11" inquest was held on the hotly of tlie deceased youth, and the Jury returned a ver- dict of Wilful Murder against stme person or persons 1111- blown. The young man is 21 years of age. Upwards of forty carpenters were employed in Ihe tem- porary preparations for the King's grand ball and supper. In the midst ql' their work 011 Monday, they struck for an advance « f wages, which was obliged to be'complied will! for ; thfe time, the men pot reflecting how their conduct cuulil operate to their future benefit.

Arclu dpipon Clarke, the Rev. — Law and others- The Chairman addressed the Grand - Jury in a briefbut eloquent speech, tl] 0i the nature of their duties, observing that he considered it unnecessary to trouble them at much length,- he had witnessed with great satisfaction the very proper ami efficient maimer in which these duties were performed by the highly respectable Grand Juries assembled i> t these sessions, and he should confine himself principally to the alterations which had been made in the I, aw, in the iast Session of Parliament, tie then com- mented on the various new Actsof Parliament, and called the particular attention of the Jury to Acts for altering the qualification anil mode of summoning Jurors— the Act to prevent unlawful Combinations amongst workmen, and the Act for establishing an uniformity of weights and measures, from aH of which he rend copious extracts, and entered into an able and lucid explanation of their effect. The following Counsel shortly afterwards appeared at the bar, vix:— Mr. Ashworth, Mr. Peacon, Mr. Cotting- bam, Mr. Browne, Mr. Lloyd, and Mr. Walker. There were but few appeals, and none of any interest. Nearly all the prisoners brought up the first dav pleaded guilty. Amongst them was a young man of the name of James Saurin, all Irishman, charged with having stolen jhree boqjjs, the property of Thomas Bolshaw, of Aitrin- cham:— r Immediately upon his plea of guilty being recorded, this prisoner handed up to the bench a paper witich ap- peared to occupy the serious attention of the Magistrates for a considerable time, at length Sir John Stanley ad- dressing tbe prisoner said, *• if we had not reason to think that you are ail adept in this sort of theft, we shopld feel inclined to pass a lenient sentence." The, Prisoner,— I acknowledge my guilt of the crime pharged against me, but I am not the character you sup- pose. I never before oljended against the Law, and I was unhappily led to Commit this offence by extreme wwit { will not attempt to justify it, bnt there is no saying what the calls of hunger wil) drive a man to do. X was about to publish a boqfc of my own writing. J was too poor to get the proper prints for the purpose, and I had read in the newspapers the in inner it) which such tilings had been obtained. [ Here the prisoner w;\ s rather indis tinct, we understood him to allude to the recent robbery of the British Museum.)— 1 am sensible of my error, I am grieved and r? pent it, and I can only appeal to your clemency— to your mercy— allow me I entreat you to have my liberty— I will seek my friends, and I will assure you, that 1 shall never be found in such a situation again. I hope you will consider tl) at \ have seen better days, Al- ready have I been confined in this prison for seven weeks, most" of that time I have been sick and in the hospital; and I talje this opportunity of acknowledging the kindness and attention pf the Governor during my affliction. I entreat that your Worship, and f( lt the Gentlemen of the inserting them in your paper. Yesterday, while at a friend's house, in Penketh, near Warrington, I was informed that a lad, of the age of 16 or 17 years, was drowned the evening before, about five o'clock, near the lock- house, Penketh. He had been seen about the neighbourhood for several days, and his tale was that he was a silk- weaver, in Macclesfield— could earn seventeen or eighteen shillings per week— that he lived with an old step- mother, iyho psed him very ill, and that he had run away from home. I strongly suspect he is a runaway apprentice. I went to look at the body. He is rather stout made, ith broiyn hair, brown eyes, and about five feet two inches high, I could discover 110 mark on him, save one small one, 1111 the right temple, but whether thi3 is natu- ral, or madfi'by tile boo^ s with which he was pulled out of the wa£ er, I cannot say. 1 will describe his dress— a blue jacket, with yellow gilt buttons; blue trowsets, on the lining qf which is written in black ink, « Pool Sfansfield ;" yellow waistcoat, with blue stripes, buttons of same; grey worsted stockings, nearly new ; shoes, with lace ties; a g( iod hat, lined' with si. k ; black silk handkerchief; and a laisje plaid inustln handVrchief fqr the neck, marked • W* B 2, with marking iiA ; had in his pocket } Jd.; a fish line, and white case comb. This evening the Coroner and Jury will meet, and to- morrow ( Monday) be will be buried in Sankey chapel yard. Now, Sir, it Is more than probable he may have friends in Macclesfield; and I am very sure your humanity will excuse my troubling you with tliis for their information. I am. Sir, your obedient humble Servant, Jofin- strect, Warrington, Sunday J. CAliYL. QiXWlg, July lOfA, NEW CHURCHES— His Majesty's Commissioners for building New Churches, hove deemed it expedient to make the first offer of benefit from the late Parliamentary grant to such parishes and places as have been most forward in their tender of contributions, and to propose to them, upon their contributing in money and in sites to the amount of one half of the whqle expense, an immediate grant of the remaining sum required for the completion of the under- taking, according to plans specifications, and estimates, to be approved by the Commissioners. CHESTER FAIR.— Our Great Midsummer Fair com- menced on Tuesday last,. On few previous occasions have we seen so many horses ill the Market, and generally speaking, so superior 111 appearance- High prices were demanded but not obtained, and on Wednesday the horse fair was nearly as- brisk as on the preceding day, Of horned cattle there was also a tolerable show, and they fetched nearly as much money as at the last Ji\ iir. In: deed, there was an extraordinary number pf both buyers and sellers. The Bazzar in the Hall is at present tptn, and almost every branch of British industry, in Woollen and Cotton Goods,- Hardware, & c. is pn the advance There ate but few Hops in the Market; and owing to the devastation made by the insect, a rapid improvement in price has taken- place, which still continues, and may be better estimated by consulting the following average of value, viz. 1— I8I8, 1819, 1820, 1821, from 3gs. to 6gs,; 1824, 8gs— Chester Cbrdn'cle. It is said that Mr. Peel intends to place the situation of sheriffs on a new footing, by appointing perpetual sheriffs at a salary, who shall be chosen by each county, The amount of the d alies taken olf wine, to be relcrned to the hqlders, is £ 1,000,000. The number of shares in circulation at the Stock Ex- change, ail in Undertakings which have originated within lie last twelve months, ampunts to above 1,300,000. The cur rency of England and Ireland has at last been assimilated bv a proclamation to that effect, A clause added by Mr, Peel lei the police magistrates' bill, at its third reading, will ejjfect the most important and sweeping change in the discipline of prisons. The clause is to this- iniport t—" That 110 person convicted of misdemeanors shall be subjected to the punishment of hard labour, unless the offence be of a fraudulent nature." By the law of last Session, untried prisoners are also exempt from the labour of the wheel. The inhabitants of Glasgow have hit upon an excellent method pf reducing tile present exorbitant price of flesh- meat, by coming to a resolution to " eat no more flesh" until it shall find its level with the price of other neces- saries of lite, In consequence, the meat- market has been for the last fortnight in a complete stagnation.

IRON—- O11 the Shropshire and Staffordshire quarter days last week, the price pf pig iron fell ten shillings per ton. Manufactured iron continued at the same prices as the previous quarter. The demand has been., ami still is, nearly equally great. The small decrease in the price of pigs is referable chiefly, or perhaps wholly, to the confi- dent expectation that the new furnaces building, and the. additional mines of stone opening, wili, by increased sup- ply, have the usfial e'ffect 011 prices.

POSTSCRIPT. LOXDON, THURSDAY, JULY 14. By the arrival qf the Turkey Mail this morning, we have accounts from Constantinople of the 10th, and from Smyrna of the 4th ult. The reports respecting Greece continue contradictory in the'extreme. The following is^ an extract from one of theL- lters :— Smyrna, June 4 Our last news from the. SIorea is, that the Greeks had burnt two corvetles, two brigs, with several transports of the Egyptian squadron, in the port of Modon ( that the Egyptians have captured Navarino, notwithstanding the utmost efl'orts of the Greeks, wluv cannot at all contend against the regularly disciplined. Egyptian army. There are repojfs in town to- day that the Greek fleet commanded by Miauli has been defeated by the Algerines with considerable loss, and tlmt the fleet from Constantinople has defeated anothpr Greek fleet. It is evident the Greeks have completely the command at sea. Several vessel:? were seen at the entrance of the Dardanelles.

IRELAND. By the Lords' Select Committee appointed to inquire into the State of Ireland, mure particularly with reference to the circumstances which mav have led to distur- bances in that | iart of the United Kingdom. Ordered to Report: That the Committee have proceeded, in obedience to the Orders of the House, to examine such persons as ap- peared best qualified to afford information upon the vari- ous points respecting the state of Ireland, which tell wilhin the scope of the inquiry they were directed to pursue. As the inquiry has been proceeding, they have thought Udesirahle to lay before the House the whole of the evi- dence, which will be accompanied with an index, affording convenient means of reference. In the present advanced state of the Session, they dp not feel themselves enabled to do more than to select, from the mass of information which has been brought before them, some of the subjects lo which it appears to them to he advisable that the attention of Government and of Parliament should be more especially directed. With reflect to the civil disabilities of the Iloman Ca- tholics, they have examined a considerable number of persons, of various professions and of different stations in life, in order to afford to the House all the information which it was in their power to collect; but they abstain from making any observations upon that evidence; be- cause they are persuaded thai upon a subject of such para- mount importance, and connected with such great con- stitutional questions, it was the intention of the House that their duty should be confined to the collection of in- formation. It is material likewise to observe, that little, evidence has been taken upon the subject of education. This duty had already been delegated to Commissioners, whose lie- port, which apjiears to the Committee to contain most Valuable information upon the branch of this subject re- tiring to file education of the poor, has lately beeh pre- sented to the House; and they understand that tile future inquiries of fhe;< Jomniissioiters will lie directed to other branches,. and will bring the whole under the view of the Government and ofParliament. The Committee have received a great body of evidence on theaclualstale of the relations between landlord and tenant, and are of opinion, that the whole of that most important subject is deserving of the attentive considera- tion of Parliament. Amongst the great evils existing in the present state of these relations, are represented to be the minute subdivision of land; the number of persons who intervene between the head landlord and the iinme. diate occupier; the extreme difficulty of preventing the « ub-! ettingof land, and the power possessed by every in- termediate landlord, as weil. au the principil landlord, to distrain upon the occupying tenant. It is for the wisdom Parliament to consider, whether any and whatimprove- tuent in the law relating to these sunjeels may be expe- dient or practicable. Many valuable suggestions on these as well as other points respecting the relations betw ell landlord and tenant will be found in the evidence. TheCommittee observe wirli satisfaction, that the increas- ing intelligence of landlords is now endeavouring to apply a gradual remedy to the subdivision of land; and they cannot but entertain a confident expectation-, that for the mutual benefit of both landlord and tenant, this remedy U1II be as extensively applied as the nature of existing contracts, and the comfort and well- being of the people will permit. The extent of the burden brought upon the country by the present syst. ni of Grand Jury Presentments has hing been a subject of complaint. Various suggestions have been . uuile for the improvement of this system, and some of the abuses to which it was liable have been partially Corrected by the Legislature. It is stated, however, that Wore is still necessary to be done; that the mode of de- ciding what works are to be undertaken, of regulating the expenditure, and of passing the accounts, is still in many respects i in perfect. It appears at all events desirable, that if it should tie found expedient to continue to intrust these liii. etimis to Grand Juries, the publicity of that portion of their proceedings which rehfl. es 4o the levying and expen- diture of the public money should be effectually provided fir. It bus also been suggested, the charges of Grand Jury assessments, fin' objects of a permanent nature, ought to fall in future leases upon landlords and tenants in their due proportion. Itbis been strongly urged, that, the criminal and civil business of the Quarter Sessions should be kept entirely separate, and that all the criminal business should be first disposed of, so a< s fo release the . Magistrates, who are ea'led . together for that portion of the business belonging ie the Charter Sessions, instead of detaining tlieai and the Juries and the witnesses, tor their own great inconvenience, and the increased expenceof prosecutions. • It has been; suggested as an improvement, that the as- sistant Barristers should not practise as Counsel in the counties where they sit tijwrn the lSenrh. The constitution'of the Civil Hill Courts deserves se- rious consideration; mill at all events it appears lo be ad- visable to leqtitre that their process should be executed by their own sworn officers, or hv persons more trust- worthy and responsible than many of those who are at present employed. Strong representations have been made to the Com- mittee against the mode in which the process of Custodi- am Writs in the superior Courts is executed, and also re- specting mesne process. Several important suggestions have been made respect- ing the office of Sub- Sheriff: viz that each Sub- Sheriff should have a regular office within his own county, where he should attend at certain hours; that this appointment should be subject to the approbation of the last going Judge of Assize; that he should be rendered legally capa- ble of serving more years than one; and, that the execu- tion writs should not be committed to any person, except the Sheriff's Officers. The administration nf justice by the Magistrates in cor- porate towns, has been state 1 to be more frequently ex- ceptionable than that exercised- h/ County Magistrates; and- the lew of tolls, and the expenditure of the money received, is stated to require examination and correction. Obstacles are also stated to be opposed to the adraissit- n of persons to their freedom, although entitled thereto by birth, servitude, or marriage. The present remedy, by an application to the Court of King's Bench, is deemed to be tedious and expensive; anil it is represented, that jus- tice would be more easily rendered to the individuals claiming admission: bv giving double or treble costs in the case of an unjustifiable refusal to adroit. A Ithough upon the same grounds U| « m which tliev have confined themselves to the collection of information, as to the civil disabilities of Roman Catholics, the Commit- tee abstain from doing more than to report the evidence they have received on the practical effect of the present sys- tem ofthe Elective Franchise, they feel it necessary to state, that it mav be found expedient to adopt some further and more effectual provision against the creation of fictitious or fraudulent qualifications, under the law as it now exists. It has been strongly recommended that some provision should be made for the relief of the extreme distress of the poorer classes iti age or infirmity, if not by law ( to which great objections have been started.) at least by or. ganizing the collection and distribution of charitable con- tributions. In addition to the suggestions above stated, various others have also been received, respecting the encourage- ment of emigration— the extension of public works of un- questionable utility, bv reasonable facilities afforded by the Government— ilie extension ofthe fisheries— improve- ments in the state of the lunatic nssvlums and houses of industry— the regulation or abolition of Manor Courts— the constitution and powers of Vestries— and respecting many details in the subordinate administration of justice. Km these and other matters, which are in different de- grees deserving of attention, the Committee beg to refer to the Evidence, where they will he found under the heads in the Index. The Committee cannot close this Report without ex- pressing the pleasure they have received from the concur- rent testimony of so miinv witnesses, who, in speaking of the different measures which have been of late adopted for the improvement of the state oflre'and, have, in a greater or less degree, agreed in attributing to them a highly fa- vourable effect. the establishment, ofthe police and constabulary force — the reversion of the magistrates in Petty Session— the administration of justice by the assistant barristers— the change whicl has taken place of late years in the mode of appointing sheriffs— the public works undertaken by the Executive Government— the alteration in the system of- the Distillery Laws, and in the general mode of collecting the Revenue— the remission ofnll direct taxes— the repeal of the Union Duties, and the increased facility of com- mercial intercourse, have all contributed, not only to Te- niove grievances, but to improve the situation - of the country. The composition for lithe, tinder the authority of the Acts passed in the two last Sessions of parliament, has been hitherto as rapid and as beneficial as could have been expected under the circumstances of the times.; and the greatest advantages may reasonably lie antiiipated from the further progress of this important measure. The restored tranquility of the country has already afforded the opportunity for a more extensive introduc- tion of different branches of manufacture ; mid should it fortunately continue uninterrupted, the best hopes may be entertained, that bv furnishing employment to the poorer . ilasse, one of the greatest incentives to disturb- ance mav be p ' rmanently removed. July 4, 1825. THE TUNNEL UNDER THE THAMES, This novel undertaking appears to excite. a continually increasing interest. The Visiters'- Registry shows the names of very many foreigners, and among them some eminent for science. It has, we believe, excited much curiosity, and forms a frequent, topic of conversation on the Continent— a tunnel for carriages beneath such a river as the Thames being regarded as one, at least, of the va- rious wonders for which England has become such an ob- ject of admiration. Amongst the recent visitors have been his Royal High- ness the Duke of Gloucester; and on Friday se'nnight the Chairman and Directors received on their works his Roval Highness the Duke of Cambridge and his Duchess, his Itoval Highness Prince Leopold, the Earl of Hardwicke. . Mr. Secretary Peel and bis brother, Mr. Dawson, M. P. and many ladies in their^ iarty. The engineer, Mr. Bru- nei, explained in the French latiguoge to the ladies the modes of operation. The Duke, the Prince. Mr. Peel's brother, and Mr. Dawson, descended to thebottom of the shaft, ( now excavated to nearly the' lowest point) by the ladders in common use by the workmen. They inspected with much attention, and expressed their approbation of the whole proceeding, and were shown some of. the masses of shells still found in the centre of the thick stratum of clay. Some ofthe ladies were lowered down the shaft in a suitable chair. Against the gable- end of a house on the works, the Di- rectors have caused to be buiit, in brick, a fac simile ofthe perforation which will shortly be begun horizontally across the river, in order to- show more strikingly the proportion of height iinil breadth for carriages, Ac. & e. an 1 which will be painted 111 perspective, and will have a tine effect. The new steam engine is expected to be shortly at work, artd must greatly expedite the operations. The clay ex- cavated is conveyed into a neighbouring field, and is there converting into bricks of particular make, lo be again used, in its new form, in the construction of this subaqueous I com'iHinication. j The tunnel will consist of two archways, anil, in order that ' tt)" re , mv be no obstruction to carriages, those going j from the . north to the south shore will pass through one, w hile those from the south to the. north will occupy the other archway. The passages will be Macadamized, ami i there will be distinct paths for foot passengers. In the ! centre, between the two archways and dividing the two I roads, wiil be a line of numerous arob. es of communica- I tion - spacious enough to admit of persons passing from one j road to the other ; and in each of these arches will heiixed i a strong gas light. The approaches to the entrance of the tunnel will be by circular descents of easy declivity, not exceeding four feet in everv hundred. One smaJlerone for pedestrians; another larger one ibr carriages; and so easy will the descent be, that the heaviest loaded waggon will never need to have the wheel locked. The descent from the north side will be near to the end of Old Gravel- lane, at the eastern end of the London Dock. and. on the south side of the river from a spot near to Rotherhithe Church. The bed of the river has been rigidly examined bv frequent and deep borings, in order to ascertain the nature of the strata, and the resu'ts have been, we are informed, highly epCoUragiqg;, the deep parts being uni- f! ir. infv of a tenacious, hai'd, blue. clay. Tile machinery, liv which this excavation is to be made, is the invention of Mr. Brunei. The iron shield, for the protection of the workmen, and for the se.- itritv of the work as - it proceeds, is ul ah ingenious combination, and of itself is said to weigh ninety tons; and tliis weight is literally to be pushed through the earth, entering at the shaft on the north side of tile river. For this invention Mr. Brunei lias obtained a patent. As this large shield, or three- storied iron scaffolding, is daily moved on to fill up the excavation made by ilie workmen, it is to be followed closely by the bricklayers, who will make all good ; so that the incumbent earth will always be supported bv the iron shield, or bv compact and well cemented brickwork. The size ofthe tunnel will be thirty- five feet wide, by twenty feet in height; each archway will have about fourteen feet clear widlh.( including footpath); and the whole length of the tunnel will be about one thousand three hundred feet. Should nothing unforeseen prevent it, this novel communication is expected to be opened in less than three years. It wiil be obvious to every person acquainted with tile Thames, that no bridge could cross It where the tunnel is designed to be made, unless it were of a height so great that shipseouhl sail beneath it- Such abridge has been projected, but the design was soon abandoned. The tunnel may be regarded as a bridge reversed, and ns a channel < ff intercourse between the two shores, at once commodious, and suited to its locality. Such an intercourse has been for a long time a desideratum, and must, we conceive, be much used. It will open a free, and probablv an important, communication between the counties ol Middlesex, Essex, Kent, and Surrey, and Sussex, and the several national and commercial establish- ments on either shore, and which, in time, w ill give birth to improvements of no small magnitude. There will be in this tunnel a thickness of fifteen feet of earth between the crown ofthe tunnel and the bed of the river; and the brick- work will necessarily be of the best materials and most solid nature, and closely cemented w ith the utmost care. Thepiesent is not the first attempt which has been made to carry a tunnel under the Thames. Some years ago such a work was projected at a part of the river near Gravesend, but the attempt proved abortive. An attempt was made near Rotherhithe in 1809, which alse- failed— The improvements which have since that period'been ill-' troduced by Mr. Brunei Into the science of tunneling, incline us to look for a more fortunate result from the present attempt. The following is a description of the mode adopted in carrying the work into effect, as set forth in Mr. Brunei's plan:— In the case of the drill- . vav under the Thames at Rot • herhitlie, in 1809, the water presented no obstacle for nine hundred and thirty feet, when a great body of quicksand gave way. and filled the drift. The miners Soon over- came this obstruction, and waretihle to proceed until they were stopped by a second eruption, - which in a lew mi. nutes filled it- Nothing comes more satisfactorily in sup- ports' the system that is adopted here, th in the result ofthe operations that were carried on, under the most disadvantageous circumstances to an extent of one thou- sand and eleven feet, anil within one hundred and thirty feet of the opposited shore. It is to be remarked, that at the second eruption on ex- amining the bed of the river, a hole was discovered, four feet in diameter and nine feet deep, with the sides per- pendicular; a proof Mi it the body of quick sand was not extensive. But wlint is most remarkable is, that this hole could be stopped merely by throw ing from above a quantity of clav, partly in bags, and oilier materials^ and after pumping the water out. under a haul of twenty- five leet of loose ground, and thirty feet of water, the miners resumed the work, and proceeded a little further; but finding the hole at the first eruption increased, and the filling over the second very much sunk, the undertak- ing was abandoned I'lie peculiar character of the plan before us consists in the mode of effect ingthe excavation hv removing no more earth than is to be replaced by the body ofthe tunnel, re- taining thereby the surrounding ground in its natural stale of density and solidify. In order so to effect an excavation of thirty- five feet in breadth by twenty- five feet in height, Mr. Bru- nei proposes to have the body of the tunnel preceded liv a strong framing of corresponding dimensions— The object of til's framing is to support the g ound, not only in front of the tunnel, but to protect at the same time the work of excavation on :, ii sid. s. The body of the tunnel, which is to he constructed of brick, is intended to be fitted close to the ground,; and in pro- portion as the framing is moved Ibr* ard so the brick work is made to keep pace with it. But, - is this framing could not be forced forward all in one bod v on account of the friction of its external sides against the surrounding earth, it is composed of twelve perpendicular Crimes, which ad mit of being moved singly and independently of each other in proportion as the ground is worked aivay in front. These several frames are provided with such mechanism as may be necessary to move them forward, as well as to secure them against the brickwork where they are sta- tionary. It is to be observed, that six altera, te frames are stationary, while the six Intermcdvite ones are left free, for the purpose of being moved forward w hen re- quired: these, in their turn, are made stationary for re- lieving the six alternate ones, and so o; i. Thus the pro- gressive movement of the framing ean readily be effected. In order that a sufficient number of bands may be em- ployed together with effect and security, each frame is di- vided into three small distinct apartments, which may properly be denominated cells. By this disposition the twelve frames form thirtv- six ef'lis, in which the men ave to operate for excavating the ground. ' It is to be ob- served, that the ground in front of each' cell is to be kept from falling in by means of a powerful shield, consisting of small boards, stron Iv secured by the frames. It is from within the cells that each workman's to cut o- it the ground; just in the way he would do if he w re to cut out a recess ir, a wall for the purpose of fittiSg a closet into it; but with this precaution, that he is to remove each board, one after the other, and replace each in succession as he cuts the portion of ground corresponding with it. When he has thus gained from three to six inches over- the whole surface, < an operation which it is expected may be made in all the cells nearly in the same time,) the f'- anies are moved forward, and so much of the brickwork added lo the body of the tunnel. Thus in intrenched and secure cells, thirty- three men may he made to carry oil an ex- cavation which is 63.' t ie> t superficial area, in re- gular order and uniform quantities, with as l- iucb faci- lity and safety as if one drift only of nineteen feet square was to be opened by one man. The drift carried under the Thames, in 1809, which was about the size of one of these cells, preceded at the rate of four to ten feet per dav. - In the plan now pro. posed, it was not intended the progress should exceed three feet per day, because the work should proceed with mechanical uniformity in all the points together. With regard lo the line of operation, if we examine the nature of the ground the work has to . go through, we observe under the third stratum, which has been found to resist filtration from aUive, that the substrata, to the depth of eighty- six feel, are of a nature that present, no obstacle to the progress of the tunnel: we are informed that little water was met there. It is therefore through these substrata that it is proposed to penetrate, ami to carry the line that is to cross the deep and navigable part of the river, leaving over the crown of the tunnel a head of earth of from 17 to 23 feet in thickness, quite undisturbed. Admitting that in descending to, or ascending from, that line, the engineer should come to a body of quick- sand, such as that which wasfoUnd within about two hun- dred feet from the shore, it is then that " the combination of framing already described, would be employed with effect, and accomplish upon a large scale, what > s prac- tised on a very small one, by miners when they meet with similar obstacles. The nature of the ground under the bed of the river at Rotlierhithe in a line contiguous ID that now proposed for opening the tunnel, may be best understood by the following tabular view:—. Feet. Greatest dep'h of water nt high water. 31 The bottom of Ihe river consists of a bed of gravel and * and, ( lie thickness of which isabout... 4 Clay mixed with sand 2 StilT clay 3T 11 The boring tools have been forced into the soil to va- rious depths, but they have generally been broken by the adhesive nature of the materials beneath ; and it is" sup- posed from the result of other borings made on- shore, that the ground is nearly the same to a considerable depth. The estimated expense of this undertaking, £ 160,000, is so much under that of a bridge, as to have occasioned doubts whether it has not been under- raled. But to re- move these, it is sufficient to state, that it will be con- structed almost entirely of brick, which is the cheapest of ail building materials, not merely as a material, but also in the labour; and though these are intended to be laid in the best Roman cement, in preference Inordinary mortar, the cost of a rod of brick thus laid will not exceed £ 98 exclusive of the labour; and as the length of the body of the tunnel wiil be one thousand two hundred feel ( a length exceeding by much that of Westminster- bridge,) it will require one thousand , t wo hundred : i- id eighty ro( J> of bricks, the amount of which, at £ l! f the rod, wiil be £ 23.040 a sum that, would scarcely pay for a single pier of a substintial bridge ; this will be sufficient to give some idea of the cheapness of a structure which is composed entirely of bricks. CIRCUITS OF THE JUDGES. WHAT IS THE SUN MADE or?— In a Birmingham Debaling- Societv, assembled not longer since than the 7th day of July, 11125, the subject of discussion was the cause, of light, which the majority attributed lo friction. This led them to inquire respecting the sun, whether it was a body of'light or ail opaque substance, and it was eventually decided of fuminout matter. " What, then, is the sun made of for here we have the cause of light." This ques- tion went beyond the comprehension of all but an honest cphler from the emerald isle, who had till then sat mute, but now rose, and silenced the whole society by a quaint reply, " Friction to be sure."

Secre- tary to the Admiralty in the reign oft'harles II. and James I., just published, edited bv Lord Braybrooke :— " Oct. I3th— I Kent enl to Charing- cross tosee Major- general Harrison • banned, drawn, and quartered; which was done there, he looking as iheerful as any man could do in that condition. He was presently cut down, liis head and heart shewn to lite people, at which there were great shouts of joy. It is said that he said that he was sure to com - shortly al Ihe right band of Christ, to judge them that had now judged him ; imiUhat bis wife do ex- pect bis coming again. Thus it was my chance to - see the King beheaded at Whitehall, and to see the first blood shed in revengg for the Kinir at Charing- cross. " J ill. 22,1— r met with Dr. Thomas Fuller. He tells nie of bis last and great hofik that is coming out; that is, the History of - all the Families in England • and could tell me more of my own than I could myself. And also to what perfection he bad brought the nrt of memory : that be did lately to four eminently great Schol ars dictate together in Latin, upon different subjects of' their proposing,' faster than they were able to write, till they were tired ; and that, the best way of beginning a s - ntence, if a man should be out and forget his hist sentence, ( which be never was) that then his last refuge is to begin with an IJt e'unqne. Sept. Hth.— To Dr. Williams, who did carry me into bis garden, where lie hath abundance of grapes; and he did show me how a dog that he bath do kill all the cats that coine thither to kill Ills pigeons, arid drrafterwanls burv them ; and do it with so nitich care that thev shall be quite covered ; and if the lip of bis tai' bangs out he wifi take up the cat again, and dig the hole deeper: which is verv strange; and he tell roe that he do believe that he hath killed above 100 cats. " Oct. 5th— To the King's house; and there going in met with Kniji, and she took us un into the tirelhg- rooms; and to the woman's shift, w here Nell was dressing herself, and was all unready, and is very preltv, prettier than 1 thought. And into the scene- room, aud there snt down, anil she gave us fruit; and here 1 read the questions to Knip, while she answered me, through all her part of ^ Flora's Frgary's" which was acted- to- day . But, lo see - how they were both painted, would make a man mad, and did make me loathe them ; and what hnsecomimnv of men coiftes among them ; ar. d how lewdly they ta k ! And bow poor the men are in clothes, anil yet what a show they make on the si. age by cand; e light, is verv observable. But to see how " Kel| cursed, for having so few people in tlie pit, was strange; the other bouse carrying away all the people to the new play, and il is said liow- a- days to • haye generally most company, as being better players. By and by into the pit, and there s. r- v the play, which was prettv good. " Nov. I. st— This morning Sir W. Penn on? I were mounted early, and had very merry discourse all the way, he being very good conipnnv. Wee me to Sir W. Bat- ten's, whese he lives like a prince, :; vrd . we were made very welcome. Among 6ther things he show'd me nir lady's closet, wherein was great store of raritje. s ; as alspi a chair, which be calls King Harry's chair, where he that sits down is catcher! wilh two irons, that come round about him, which ra , kes good sjiort. Here dined with us two or three more country gentlemen; among 111 - rest Mr. Christmas, my old ' school- fellow, with whom I bad milt h talk. He did remember that I was a great Roundhead when I was abov, and I was much alroid thai he would have remembered the words that I said the day the King was beheaded, ( that, were I to preach upon him. mv text should be'The memory of the wicked shall rof; Vhut I found afterwards that iie did not go away from school before that time. " Dec. 4— This day the Parliament voted that the bodies of Oliver, Ireton, Br- utshavye, & c, should be taken up out of their graves ill the Abbev, and drawn to, the gallows, and there hanged and buried under it: which, ( niethii ks,) do trouble m- that a man of so great couri ge as be was, should have that dishonour, though otherwise he might deserve it enough. " 3i) th— To my Ladv Batten, s; where mv wife, and she are lately come back' ag iin from being abroad, and see- ing of Cromwell, Ireton, and Bradshawe hanged and bu- ried at Tvburne. " Feb. 5— Into the lla'l; and there saw mv lord Trea- surer ( who his sworn to- day at the F. xehequer, with a great company of Lords and persons tif honour to attend him) to go up lo the Treasury Office, and take possession thereof; and also saw the heads of Cromwell, liradshawe, and Ireton, set up nt the farther end of the Hall. " April 2— To St. James's Park, where I saw the Duke of York playing at Pelemele, the first time that ever I saw the sport. " Then to the Dolphin to Sir W. Batten and Pen, and o! her company ; among others Mr. Delabar: where strange how these men, who at other times are all wise men, do now, in their drink, hetwitt and reproach one another with their former conditions, and their ac- tions as in public concerns till I was ashamed to see it." • " Thomas Harrison, son of a butchernt Newcaslle- under- I. ilie, appointed hy Cromwell to convey Charles I. from Wind- sor lo White- hall, io order to his trial, and nfUrwards snt as one of his judges.
