The following spirited proceeding is related ill Ihe Malta Gazette, of the 10th of August :—" We understand that the Seringapaiam, accompanied . by the brig of war Alacrity, proceeded about Ihe middle of May lasl lo Rhodes, lo demand an explanation from the Bey for an outrage committed against our Consul there, by some of Ibrahim Pacha's troops, who broke into his house, and robbed him of 11,000 piastres. The Bey admitted the fact— but refused lo make restitution, or even avow it 111 writing— Captain Sotluby, therefore, thought proper to embark Ihe Consul and his family, teiling Ihe Biy, thai if he did not comply within a given lime, he would fire on the place; and iu the mean time lite frigate and brig were brought lo au anchor closr iu. The lime being elapsed, and the document not forthcoming, Capt. Si. theby very coolly fired a shot into tbe Bey's own house, and sent a flag of lime to try its effect ! The Bey had not a ilicipand his potting his threat into execution so promptly, and the ac- tnowb'dgm' nt was no longer withheld The Con. sol's ( big was consequently again displayed, and the Alacrity was left al Rhodes lo take care that ihe Consul receives no ill- treatment ou account of this affair." Roger Payne, Ihe celebrated English book- hinder, recently ended a life of labour, poverty, and intemperance, in St. Marlin's- bine, and was buried at the expense of his friend, Mr. Payne, Ihe bookseller, though no relation. His workmanship was in a very superior siyle, and consequently procured him high prices, and the books bound by him continue lo obtain large sums. For Ihe binding of an " TEschylus" for Lord Spencer, he received fifteen guineas. He was very singular in his conduct ; he made all his own tools, aud never would work before auy person, but always in some secluded cellar, and only when his necessities called upon him for exertion.

The Burmese Chief, Bandoulah, was nearly taken prisoner. — The divisions of Sir A rchiba'd Campbell and General Morrison are stated to have united anil formed a communication with the river, under General Cotton, near Prome. It is said, the King of Ava had sent proposals ol peace, hut that Sir Archibald Campbell said lie would not enter into any negot iation until his army had entered his Majesty's capital. Yesterday, the heads of the University of Cambridge, accompanied by the Mayor and Corporation of thai town, waited 011 the Duke of York, at Cheveley, lo present His Royal Highness an address of thanks, for his " noble, manli, and constitutional conduct, in regard to the Catholic Question." His Royal High- ness received the address in the Great Hall; to which he relumed a neat anil appropriate reply. The deputation who presented the : id Iress went in grand procession. A sumptu- ous entertainment was given at Cheveley on the occasion. Oil Sunday morning, at eight o'clock, Ihe Lord Bishop of Ibis Diocese, attended by the Rev.

Committed lo our County Gaol, Richard Peate, charged with stealing a sovereign and half sovereign in gold, and three shillings in silver, the property of Thomas Joyce. THE THEATRE.— We feel great pleasure in observing that Mr MORELAND, the Stage Manager of the Shrewsbury Theatre, has selected the Historical Play of HENRY IV. for Friday Evening's performance.— II forms a great feature in the history of this town, and, as a memento of the days of chivalry, is at all limes a source of public attraction.— General Lord Hill itileuds honouring the Theatre wilh his presence on the occasion. The town of Devonport lias experienced the greatest shock to ils public credit by the failure of Ihe Bank of Messrs. Shiells and Johns. The failure of the Kmgshriilge Bank- ing Establishment of Messrs. Square, Priileaux, anil Co. last week, connected as it was with a district of many miles around, composed mostly of small farmers, was replete wilh distress, and occasioned, from a loss of con- fidence, a partial pressure on all the hanks ( six) of Plymouth and Devonport. As the extent of that calamity becanid known, a kind of panic prevailed, and Saturday last, being market- day, a general run commenced 011 all Ihe banks, principally against I , at of Shiellsand Johns, who were compelled to shut tip an hour before the usual time. On M011 day a notice appeared in the windows, that, in consequence of the severe pressure of Satur- day, Shiells and Johns were unable to resume their payments. I he most favourable reports respecting the finances ol the firm are, lh. it their debts are ^. 6( 1,000, and they have assets to the amount of j£ 20,000 ; while others stale their debts to he £ 100,000, and tiial the estaie will not pay 3s. in the pound. ' 1 he excite- ment of the public was heightened 011 Thurs- day by the announcement of the death of Mr. Shiells. He was found dead in Ins bed at five o'clock the previous afternoon, at a small estate lie h is cal eil Corn Wood, about fourteen miles from llie town. An investigation by a Coroner's Jury, took p'ace in the afernoon of Thursday, which occupied several hours ; when Ihe Jury, afler having inspected the body of Mr. Shiells, which was opened, returned a verdict— thai he cume. to his death by the visitation of Ihe ALMIGHTY,— Plymouth Paper, Ucl. H. Shrewsbury Yeomanry Cavalry. Yesterday, the Shrewsbury Yeomanry Ca- valry, under the command of Colonel Dallas, completed their term ot permanent duty, and were dismissed with Ihe thanks of their Colonel and respective Captains for their general good conduct in the field and in quarters. On Wednesday last, the Regiment, after coming from their exercise ground, proceeded in marching order to and round Lord Hill's Column, where they gave several hearty cheers in houour of the Hero. On Monday the Reigment was inspected by Lord Hill; and afler they had gone through their various evolutions— His Lordship said, that although, when he received the invitation lo inspect the Shrews- bury Yeomanry Cavalry, he was in some respects unprepared to fulfil such an office in proper person, he could not prevail upon himself to decline complying with the wish, which that Corps had done him the honour to express: aud that lie felt it more particularly imperative upon him to do so, as it had been reported to him that they had been pleased to surround and pay the highest military compli- ment to that Column, which his countrymen had erected as a monument of their estimation of his humble services: that he rejoiced that he had thus been furnished with ail opportu- nity of seeing the Yeomen of Shrewsbury, upon whose appearance and movements tie passed the highest encomiums j qualities, which he attributed to their own zealous attention, and to the very able manner 111 which they were commanded by their worthy Colonel, Colonel Dallas, whose services had not only been long aud conspicuous 111 this country but in very remote parts of the world. The Duke of Buckingham, it is again stated, Is to go out as Governor- General lo India. A letter from Aylesbury, mentioning this fact, adds, that the Marquis of Ch indos is to be the Vice- Lieutenant ol the county of Bucks. It was ascertained, at the investigation into the salmon fisheries, from the testimony of experienced fishermen who have counted them, lhat single salmon sometimes deposit 17,000 or Is, 000 eggs, one by one. To the Treasurer and Subscribers of the Salop Ltjirmary. A letter having appeared in the Salopian Journal, proposing the establishment of Local Dispensaries to be supplied wilh Medicines from the Salop In- firmary, i am decidedly of opinion that such a piail would be highly beneficial, and would meet with geneial support. Iu this town a Dispensary is much wauled, and lias been long- wished for by many individuals; and I am convinced lhat sub- scriptions would be imnieoiately raised iu aid of it, and thus the funds of the Infirmary would not greatly sutler.— Sincerely hoping lhat the proposed plan may be speedily carried into effect, I have the hononr to be, & c.& c. A FRIEND TO THE POOR. Whitchurch, Oct. 7, 1825. On Monday, the 3d October, Mr. Samuel Bright, mercer, was sworn into the offii e of Bailiff for the Borough of Bishop's Castle, for the year ensuing. On Friday last, Mr. Thomas Block, of Broctou, in this county, died suddenly in his chair soon after dinner, having made a hearty meal. It is very re- markable that two of bis brothers but a few years since died in a similar manner, ar. d that his wife died about 2 months ago on the same day ofthe week. Mr Bluck was a man much respected in his neighbourhood, and was 71 years of age. Longwnist arrived al the Raven Hotel Stables, ill this town, 011 Saturday.; Arthur Pavis, who rode him to win the Great Gloucestershire Stakes, lasl year, when he beat fifteen of ihe best horses in Ihe country, came with him, and next morning they proceeded for Halslon. Mr. Mytton, as we before stated, has given £ 3000 for this noble horse. Commissions iu the South Shropshire Yeomanry Cavalry, signed by the Lurd Lieutenant of the County of Salop — Lieutenant Thomas Leeke lo tie Captain, vice Meire resigned ; Lieutenant George Hinehliffe to be Captain, rice Bloxsidge resigned ; ihe Hon. George Weld Funster lo be Lieutenant, vice Leeke promoted; Cornel William Boweu Round lo be Lieutenant, vice Hinchliffe promoted. The vicinity of Shotton was lasl wetk a scene of festive mirth, in celebration of the nuptials of W. W. Watkins, Esq Two fat sheep were roasted, which, with a profusion of good old Shropshire ale, were distributed among the happy peasantry. ANGLING IN THE SEVERN.— TIIE complaint of a Correspondent, which will tie found in our 4th page, is, we have reason to know, well founded ; and we trust public attention wili bp drawn to tbe subject.— What has become of the Severn Associ ation ? A Correspondent wishes to know, of what class of persons a Coroner's Jury should be composed ? We are 110 lawyers ; but we believe the Jury ought, where practicable, lo be composed of respectable householders. Certainly such persons as our Cor- respondent mentions ought not upon any account to be allowed to sit upon a Jury. MINIATURE CURIOSITIES.— As an accompa niment to the article under Ibis head in our 4th page, we insert the following: — To the Editor of the Dublin Morning Courier. Ma. ENITOR,— Having' seen in some of the Morning Papers of last week, a paragraph copied from the Salopian Journal, containing an account of some small writing, I offer for insertion in your truly excellent paper, the following, considering it a curiosity : — 1 wrote on the last evening, within the compass of a half split pea, 0 full copy of the Lord's Prayer ( doxology included), and also a full copy of the Grace, witu the addition of three words not found in the prayer- book, viz. " now and for," & C. the original being, " be with us all evermore," 6tc. I then wrote the " Glory be to the Father," 6IC. " as it was in the beginning," & c. all perfect; having still a space unoccupied, I added my name thus, Written by John Macready, A. B T. C. D. 1825 The lines consist of twenty- five, and tbe number of letters contained in llie whole amounts to five hundred and seventy- six, aud four figuresThe punctuation of this curiosity is perfect. It may be a matter of surprise to mention, I wrote it all with- out ihe assistance of a glass. I have been to see the curiosities of this kind in the Museum of the Dublin Society House, where there are three copies, and 1 fo- iind that mine exceeded neither of thein iu compass, and being considerably smaller than one These three contain the Lord's Prayer only, without the doxology. 1 remain, Sir, yonr's very truly, 43, Bride- street. JOHN MACREADY. ACCIDENT— On Saturday night last, as John Phillips, a labouring man, was assisting another person in placing a tarpaulin over some goods on Mr. Harwood's wharf at Ihe bottom of Mardol, in this town, he slipped, fell into the river, and was drowned immediately ! SUICIDE.— On Wednesday evening lasl, John Powell, a soldier belonging to the Recruiting Service, quartered at the Ship public- house, Barker street, iu this town, committed suicide by lakisig a quantity of arsenic in some ale that he was drinking. He had Sent a boy to obtain the arsenic, but the druggist very properly refused to let Ihe boy have it ; Powell himself then went for it, and said he wanted it for the purpose of cleaning part of his accoutrements: having thus procured it, he poi soned himself. As soon as the fact was discovered by Ihe persons iu the public house, medical aid was proeuicd, but it was in vain, aiid he died in a few hours. There are various reports as to whal had operated ou ihe unfortunate man's mind to induce him to commit this rash act. The verdict returned by Ihe Coroner's Jury was that Ihe de- ceased was 44 insane."— We regret to remark, that he was ( aud lie think from an extraordinary want of consideration) buried 011 Friday with military honours!— Without imputing any thing to the unhappy mail, we are sure we express Ihe general opinion when we say that, under the circumstances, this interesting custom would, in the present case, have been " more honoured ill the breach than in the observance." THE COMET.— This interesting visitor was seen 011 Tuesday night. Notwithstanding the declining Moon shone with considerable splendour in Gemini, il was a very interesting spectacle, presenting a more perfect outline of a Nucleus ( so much sought afler by Astronomers), than has been commonly noticed; with a Coma or tail directed north- west, to the extent of from 18 lo 20 degrees, till lost in Luna's overpowering rays. It formed nearly an isoceles triangle wilh Gamma and Delta ( two stars in the head of Cetus), and described with the latter Ihe westernmost angle of the base. It is likely that it will be visible for several weeks from the rate of its motion since Saturday se'nnight, ivhen it was also noticed with considerable effect, For the greatest part of the time it was above the horizon, about two degrees to the south west of Gamma, ail unformed star between ihe Leg of Taurus and Orion, by which it wiil he seen thai the Comet is taking a direction a few degiees to the south west. On Thursday evening, a scene of extraordinary riot anil confusion took place in St. Thomas's parish, Oxford. A report having been circulated, that Mr. Mulock, who has been preaching ill that vicinity during the last twelvemonths, had, wilh the assistance of some of his followers, induced several men, whom Ihey had converted to their doctrine, to leave their wives, because they would not conform lo the new creed which Iheir husbands had adopted! a vast concourse of people, coil, sistiug of men, women, and children, collected in front of a house in which the new sect was as- sembled, and commenced hostilities by making a bonfire of wet straw, in order to smoke them out, as ihey termed it; Ihey then assailed the house with the most discordant sounds of tin kettles, horns, & c. and, after some time, succeeded iu dis lodging them; when, in their retreat, ihey were attacked with every species of missile, and several times rolled in the dirt. Two of the parly, followed by the people, look shelter in the Town Hall yard, in a most deplorable condition, their coats being nearly torn off their hacks, and their persons com- pletely covered with mud ami filth of every de scription. On Iheir leaving the Town Hall yard, they were again pursued by the mob, aud hooted and pelted with mud and other missiles until they effected Iheir escape. Mr. Mulock ( who was a mem- ber of Magdalen Hall, Oxford,) is well known as a friend of Mr. Canning. He has published several religious pamphlets, some of which contain severe animadversions on Bible Societies. Yesterday, pursuant to the Notice advertised in our last Journal, a Special Assembly of the Guard- ians of die Poor of the Six United Parishes incor- porated within the Town and Liberties ot Shrews- bury, took place at the House of Industry, for tile purpose of obtaining the opinion of the said Guard- ians as to the proceedings which had been taken by the Directors to oppose the proposed diversion of the road leading from the Hanwood Road to Kings- laud, by Mr. Beck's house, as advertised in llle newspapers. There was much desultory conversa- tion, and it was stated that, independent of Ihe present road being an ancient public footway, an inconvenience to Mr Beck himself and his propeity might arise from the proposed diversion, as ( it was alleged) nearly one- half iu extent of the present road leading from the Hanwood Road to Mr Beck's house had, when the property was sold some years ago, been measured into the ground purchased by the proprietor of the Severn Hill property, so that if the proposed diversion of the road should take place, the proprietor of that property might inclose it into his ground, and leave Mr, Beck without a carriage road to his house.— The question as related to the Guardians in their corporate capacity was, however, stilted to be principally, connected with their ownership alid occupancy of a piece of land purchased by the Corporation of Guardians some years ago, called the Banky Field, lying between Mr. Beck's house and the field in which the pmnp and machinery for supplying the House with water are situate. The only drift road to this Banky Field is from the Hauwood Road along the road pro- posed to be stopped up ; and if that road was stopped up, and ihe Banky Field should ever he disposed of, there would be no way by which manure, & c. could be conveyed to it, or by which produce could be conveyed from it, unless it were carried along the river.— After some correspond- ence, & c. 011 the subject had been read, and a good deal of discussion had taken place, as to ihe way in which the resolution to be adopted should be word- ed, it was agreed ( with one dissentient) that the meeting do approve of the resolution previously adopted by the Directors for opposing the projected diversion of the Road, and that the business should be left in the controul of the Directors. The Com- mon Seal of the Corporation of Guardians was then directed to be affixed to the necessary legal notices. There were about 20 Guardians present. BIBLE DISCUSSION— We have stated, in our 4th page, that a Roman Catholic Professor, mimed M'Kweeny, has offered himself to discuss the ques. lion of Scripture distribution wilh Messrs. Singer, Daly, Urwick, & c. of the Bible Sociely.— It is truly amusing to see upon what remarkably good terms some people are with themselves. Speaking of a former letter that he had written lo the Gentlemen above mentioned, the Professor says— " The letter whieh I then addressed, to you, in reply to your challenge to the Catholic clergymen of Carlow, must have left an impression on your minds, which it will not be easy to efface. In that letter I demonstrated to the degree of mathematical evidence, the absurdity of your principles ; and I showed that, were I in a disposition to meet you on the arena of controversy, I could not have the least difficulty in exhibiting your imbecility to the ridi- cule of the world. So short, so plain, so accessible to Ihe mind of stupidity itself, was my reasoning, that every one pretending to a particle of common sense, must have felt its force, aud must have been stricken with its clearness." ! !! We should really conceive, after reading this, lhat all argument with Professor M'Sweeny would be ail idle waste of time. The best thing any one can do for him wilt be to make him a present of a Bible, and point out to bis uotice those passages which have a tendency to rebuke pride, arrogance, and self- sufficiency. PAUPERS A well- known character, John Brown, commonly called Old Sabbath, who had frequented Ihe neighbourhood of Melksham, Wilts, for Ihe last seventy years, died at Broiighton Gif. ford, near lhat town, 011 Saturday. This eccentric man's appearance constantly bespoke the most abject poverty ; he regularly visited the adjoining villages as an object for the compassion of Ihe charitable, aud for many years before his death received parochial relief. There have been found secreted in Ihe miserable but which he inhabited, £ 144 in money, 120 shirts, 130 handkerchiefs, 32 pairs of neiv shoes and a great quantity of old ones, and an immense collection of other articles of wearing apparel, kitchen ulensils, old silver coin, 40 table and tea spoons, a silver watch, 4 large bugs full of meat ill a slate of putrefaction, and more than two bushels full of pieces of cheese, & c. & c, The property was divided amongst ten nephews and nieces. rsnflE ANNUAL MEETING ofthe 3 OXFORD CLUB will he held at the TALBOT INN, Shrewsbury, on WEDNESDAY, the 19th of October.— Dinner at Six o'Clock.

Sir Henry Watkin Williams Wynn, appointed the new Ambassador to Denmark, lefl Loudon oil Friday, for the purpose of embarking to proceed 011 his mission. This Gentleman attended his Majesty's Court al Windsor, on Friday week, at which lime, we are informed he was Knighted ; lie was, also, on that occasion, s. vorn in of ihe Privy Council; he then received his final orders, and took leave of his Majesty. Sir M. W. W. Wynn's luggage, together with three carriages, & c. were oil Thursday forwarded to the Custom House quay, to be put on board the vessel appointed to carry the Ambassador and his family to Copenhagen. On Friday, Sir H W. W. Wynn, together with his Lady and Children, live iu number, and at- tendants, lefl the Duke of Buckingham's residence in Pall Mall, where they had been staying, to proceed down tbe river to embark.' Sir H. W. W. Wynn's last mission was lo Switzerland; Ihe objects of his present embassy are said lo have formed part of the consideration of the recent Cabinet Councils. The Members of Hie Cambrian Sociely in Gwent, are to meet shortly at Brecon, for Ihe purpose of making the necessary arrangements for holding tbe Eisteddfod for lhat Province for 1826.

The supply of all Grain has been very small since this day se'nnight, and the fresh arrivals Ibis morning consisted only of a few samples of Wheat from Kent, which were readily taken off, on as good terms as 011 last Monday"; but the demand was far from being brisk. Malting Barley, although in short supply, barely supported our la'st quotation ; but had auy quantity appeared, a re- duction in this article would have taken place.

At our Sheep and Pig Fair, yesterday, there was a good supply, and there being plenty of buyers, prices looked up. Prime fat wethers sold from 7d. to 74d. and other sorts in pro- portion. Fat pigs 6 § d.; stores rather better than last fair. Chester great Michaelmas Fair commenced 011 Monday. The shew of horses was very large indeed, and superior ones, of which Ihere was a good proportion, went off briskly, at high prices, but inferior ones were 111 less request. The morn- ing part of the day was particularly distinguished for briskness of demand, as if the buyers were ap prehensive that unless Ihey bought soon, they could not purchase at all. The supply, however, was so abundant, that in the afternoon very many were unsold, and prices lowered by tbe decreased de mand. Of horned cattle, there was also an abund- ant shew, and the prices obtained were rather of an advanced character. The sales effected were more extensive than for many years past, and buyers and sellers appeared perfectly satisfied with tbe state of the market. Pigs did not appear in such abundance as is generally tbe case, nor were the prices marked by any fluctuation. Of shetp there was but a tolerable shew, ami Ihey fully maintained their price, and perhaps at a little ad vance. Salt works are upon the increase in Worcester- shire, new pits are being sunk at Stoke Prior, and we understand others are in progrtss between Ripple and Tewkesbury, where salt springs have been long known to exist. There has been a con solidation of some of the mure extensive works at Droitwich, bv purchase by a firm, the principals iu which are Quakers. The price of salt has lately advanced.

THE NEW JI'RY ACT— The part of Mr. Peel's New Jury Act which relates tu ihe qualifica- tions of persons 10 serve 011 Juries, lias given rise to a diversity of opinion. The clause especially which applies tn householders, lias been taken in different senses, smile interpreting il tn mean the qualification to extend to those assessed to tbe amount of twenty pounds per annum for house and laud collectively, and others restricting the qualification to llio'se ass ssed to that amount for their houses alone. These difl'ere nt expositions of the la, w being' em » braced by certain of the Magistrates of the West Riding- of the county of York, one of them, the Rev. B. Newton, who saw the Act in the latter sense, proposed the question to the Under Secretary of State. The following* is a copy of tlie answer received, which we have pleasure in laving- before our readers, hoping- that it may tend to promote an uniformity in the returns of Jurors, which was the object of the application at the Secretary of State's Office: COPY. " Whitehall, Sept. 12, 1R25. c< Sir— In Mr. Hobhouse's absence 1 have to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 8th inst. on the subject of the new Jury Act. I con- ceive you aud your brother Magistrates have taken a perfectly correct view, of the qualifications of a householder, viz. that he must be rated to the poor- rate at £' 20 a- year, as a householder, or in other words, for lib House only, arid not for h/ s (. arid. The words of the Act are certainly equivocal, but such were the intentions of ihe Member who intro- duced the clause, and this construction is moreover inevitable from the context ; for if a Juror were to be qualified, by being rated at £ 20 a- year on any I property whatever, it would be absurd to require aii assessment to the house duty ( which applies to the house ouly) on the same value. <£ I have the honour to be, Sir, ( t Your most obedient humble servant, " G.

The Estate, which is Freehold of Inheritance, and lies within a Ring Fence, is within 7 Miles of Bridgnorth, where there is a large Corn Market, and near to the Turnpike Road leading from that Place to Ludlow. The Farm- Houses and Buildings are conveniently situated for the Occupation of the Lands, and are in , a good State of Repair, and from the Circumstance of Coals having- been discovered on the Confines of the Estate, there is Reason to believe that there are Mines under a considerable Part of the Lands.

To the Editor of the Salopian Journal. ANGLIN ® JN THE SEVERN. SIR, I am one who, though not au adept in Ihe Art, am much attached to the innocent diversion of Angling. Not tnttny Weeks ago, having resolved to treat myself with ail excursion, 1 walked, with Rod 111 hand, lo a considerable distance from Shrewsbury, and at length arrived at a Ford in tbe Severn, which 1 readily conceived might afford me a " speckled Trout." Accordingly my Tackle were soon iu order, and I reflected with delight on the passage iu our immortal ! 5ard— " Tbe pleasant'st angling is to see the Fish <( Cut with her golden oars the silver stream, " Aud greedily devour the treacherous bait [" But no sooner was I prepared for Ihe diversion, when lu! a Boat appeared in view, in which two men were seated, who immediately proceeded to siveep this anxiously. sought Ford wilh a Drag Net, taking all the Fry within their range,' and tearing those they failed to catch. Al this sight the Angler's boasted " virtue" left me, and 1 fol- lowed the course of the Stream, until 1 arrived at another Ford, equally promising with the former. Here what were my chagrin and astonishment on finding three men engaged wilh a Drag Net as the former two had been! Having waited their departure, [ enst my Fly in every direction, but in vain; and putting np my Tackle ( the evening by Ibis lime being nearly closed), 1 sought the bouse of a Friend, and there pondered these most flagrant most daring, infractions of the Law. I know mil, Mr. Editor, whether you have ever been a Brother of the Anyte; if so, imagine my feelings ! Alas, good Sir, On Severn's banks in vain we rove about, He must be clever who can hook a Trout 1 SHREWSBURY.

Wrapt in blissful contemplation, From that hill no more I gaze On scenes as fair as w hen creation . Rose,— the theme of Seraphs' lays! And thou, fair svlph, that round ^ ts basis Driv'st thy car, with milk- white steed ; Oft I've wutch'd its gentle paces,— Mark'd its track with curious heed ! Why! oh! why, thus interesting Are forms and scenes to me unknown ! oil, you, the Muses' power confessing, Define the charm your bosoms own ! Why love, to gaze oil playful fountain, Or lake, that bore him on its breast! Lonely to wander o'er each mountain, Grove, or plain, his feet have press'd ? It is because the Muses hover, And all around a halo shed ; And still must every fond adorer Worship the shrine— tbe idol fled ! But ' tis past: and now for ever Fancy's vision's bliss is o'er ; But, forget thee, Newstead ? — never, Though I haunt thy shades no more '. Sophia Hyatt, the White Lady. 3FROM THE NOTTINGHAM REVIEW. In our last we recorded Ihe melancholy death, of Sophia Hyatt, who was, in consequence of her extreme deafness, accidentally ran over by a carrier's carl, at the entrance of the Maypole Intl yard, on Wednesday week, and unfortunately killed. Al thai lime we stated lhat she had come that morning in a gig from Newslead, Papplewick, or some where io Ibe neighbourhood, and we again advert to the lamentable occurrence, berause some very singular and mysterious circumstances are con- nected with the melancholy accident. The unfortunate deceased, Sophia Hyatt, had been, for ihe last three or four years, a lodger in one of Ibe farm houses belonging to Colonel Wild man, at Newstead Abbey. No one knew exactly from whence she came, nor what were her con- nexions. Her days were passed in rambling about the gardens and grounds of ihe Abbey, lo which, from the kindness of Colonel Wildinan, she bail free access ; her dress was invariably Ibe same rnnd she was distinguished by the servants at New stead, as the " White Lady:" She had ingratiated herself with the Newfoundland dog which came from Greece wilh ibe body of Lord Byron, by regularly feeding him ; aud on tbe evening before the falal accident which terminated her existence, she was seen, on quitting the gardens, to cut off a small lock of the dog's hair, which she carefully placed in her handkerchief. On that same evening also, she delivered lo Mrs. Wildman a sealed packet, with a request thai it might not be opened till Ibe following morning. The contents of ihe packet were no less interesting than surprising; they con- cisled of various poems in manuscript, written during her solitary walks, and all of them referring to the mighty Bard to whom Newstead once be longed, and whose fame is imperishable. A letter addressed to Mrs. Wildman, was inclosed with the poetry, written with much elegance of language and native feeling; it described her friendless situ al ion, alluded lo her pecuniary difficulties, thanked the family for their kind attention towards her, aud slated the necessity she was under of removing for a short period from Newslead. It appeared from her statement thai she had connexions iu America that her brother had died there, leaving a widow and family ; and she requested Colonel W.' s assist ance to arrange certain matters, in which she was materially concerned. She concluded wilh declin- ing, that her only happiness io this world consisted ia the privilege of being allowed to wander through tbe domain of Newstead, and to trace the various spots which had been consecrated by the genius of Lord Byron. A most kind and compassionate note was conveyed to her immediately after the perusal of this letter, urging her either lo give up her journey or to return to Newstead as quickly as possible. Willi ibe melancholy sequel our readers have been made acquainted; and it now only remains to say, thai Colonel Wildinan took upon himself the care of her interment, and that she has been buried in tbe church- yard of Hncknall, as near as possible lo Ihe vault which contains the body of Lord Byron. We have been favoured ENTERING THE ARMY. 44 Mr. Clodsley, our new Ensign, has just arrived, ir," said Lieutenant Charlton, of the - regiment, and will wait on you iu half an hour." Mountmorris signified his satisfaction at the intelli- gence, made sundry inquiries relative to the personal/ e of the stranger, after which Mr. Charlton hastened ty the inn to escort the young aspirant for military honour to the Colonel's quarters, He was a tall, unformed stripling, of eighteen, in all the awk- wardness of first going alouC;" he possessed the ( location of a gentleman, hut not the ease of one— the diamond had been given to him, hut he had never had it polished. The good- natured Lieutenant tended his arm as they reached the street, and he felt the hand tremhle which v as passed through it. You will find Colonel Mountmorris a perfect gentleman, Mr. Clodsley," said his companion, as hey proceeded ; 44 and I am convinced that your! nlry into your profession will be rendered as little rksoiue as possible by his consideration and mildness j — lie is a widower— has experienced many misfor- | nnes in his passage through' life, and they* have chastened,' hot subdued his spirit." As he spoke ihey reached the lodgings of Colonel Mountmorris, nd in the next instant* Augustus Clodsley was iu his presence. He was a fine, weli- kivit man, of apparently" five and fotiV years of a'g'e,- cliVriate- nged and sallow, with deep but mild black eyes, and an ease of manner which almost inspired the onfidence it bespoke. Colonel Mountinorris had Considerately assembled some of the officer's of his rps, in order that he might himself introduce the new comer; and accordingly a number of names were mentioned, and hows made, so. Rapidly, that the lead of the stripling was in a whirl, and he as- incapable than before of entering into con- versation with any degree of self- possession. The questions of Colonel Mountmorris were sim- ple and obvious ; and a feeling of comparative con- fidence was stealing over the young Ensign, when he was asked if he had ever been at College? He replied in the negative. " But are you entirely unacquainted with military matters ?" asked his commanding officer; do you not even know your facings?" 44 Yes, Sir," replied Mr. Clodsley readily, " I procured my regimentals as I passed through town — they are green.'* 44 Green- horn, I should apprehend!" said the Hon Frederick Dashaby, who had just purchased his company, and was seated at table, with the Gazette iu one hand and an Army List in the other. The Colonel bit his lip, and the juniors struggled to suppress a smile, a deep crimson suffused the coun- tenance of the youth ; he felt all the misery of having committed a faux. pas, although still ignorant of its nature and extent. You'will, I suppose, join our mess to- dav, Sir," said a young man near him, good- naturedly, anxious lo dispel the confusion vHVich Captain Dashaby had created If I rfiiolit be excused," ttammered out the disconcerted Augustus,- 44 1 should wish to commence mv career in a manner which' will please my father, and he desired mi' not to gef into auy uVess, if there was any possibility of avoiding it." This was too - much, even Colonel Monulrttorris smiled^ and Capt. Dashaby sprang out of tlie room'. The interview was speedily terminated, for the giddiest felt for the confusion their smiles excited ; and Lieutenant Charlton returned to ihe Inn with his new brother officer, to equip him for the mess- table The conviviality of the joyous party soon banished the unpleasant sensations of ihe morning, and Au- gustus approved himself as great a proficient in the necessary qualifications of a gentleman', as lie was deficient in those of his profession; even Captain Dashaby looked 011 him more complacently, aud when they separated for tiie night, promised him on the morrow a seat in his curricle to -. Mr. Charlton kindly escorted him to the door of the barrack- room which was appropriated to his use, iind then left him to his lepose. When morning parade, at which Augustus was necessarily only a spectator, terminated, Colonel Mountmorris approached, and offered him the sa- lutation of the morning, with all the urbanity of au equal. 44 You are doubtless, Mr. Clodsley," he said, with a smile, 44 anxious to become, as speedily as possible, acquainted wilh your new duties. Mr. Charlton has, kindly undertaken to he of every assist, ance to you iu his power, and 5 shall hope next week to see you orderly." " ! trust. Sir, that you will never find me other- wise," said Augustus, gravely. Such was the entrance of Augustus Clodsley into life ; but he did not the less make a brave officer and a worthy man ; twice he captured the colours of an enemy's regiment; once he was sorely wounded in defending those of his own. His profession was the loadstone of his existence; he clung to it with tenacity^ and he approved himself capable of bold deeds and generous actions. To Augustus Clodsley was Colonel Mountmorris indebted for his life; and it cost ( he noble youth an arm; - what marvel, tht that sire and son were never more united? Augustus returned to the home of his infancy far otherwise than ho had leftit : the tall awkward stripling had ripened into the well « et handsome man : his mother wept, it is true, when she looked on the empty sleeve of his military surtout, but she did not murmur: his father sighed as he marked the deep scar across his brow, but he saw also the medal at his breast; and he could not mourn that even so high a price had been paid for the distinction. et My sou has borne himself bravely!" murmured the good old man, and the reflection was an antidote to complaint: they had not met for ten long years, and they would not meet iu sorrow. Captain Dashahy saw Alice Clodsley— the pale beautiful pensive Alice; she was the sister of his friend; and he looked on her with a brother's fond- ness; but no warm heart could long so feel fo Alice, he looked 011 her till he loved her; and Alici smiled on him, not because he possessed rank and affluence, but as a brave man, and her brother's friend. Augustus Clodsley bestowed the sister of his affection on the brother of his adoption, and their union cemented yet more firmly a friendship founded on esteem, and nursed amid danger and vicissitude. One only cloud darkened the horizon of his exist- ence, and it passed over his soul 011 the very morning of those auspicious nuptials. 44 I can never serve again!" he said, witn a sigh, as he glanced at his empty sleeve : but the sigh was not echoed, and he mentioned it 110 more; and the brave Augustus Clodsley from that hour proved himself as good a son, and as affectionate a brother, as he had been an accomplished gentleman and a gallant soldier.

ELLESMERE RACES. ibort space of half a century, a double rovf of canals formed, both for great and for small navigation, for the purpose of uniting together opposite seas; basins separated by numberless chains of hills and mountains ; opulent ports ; industrious towns ; fertile plains; and inexhaustible mines;— and this presents deveiopement of more than 1,000 leagues in length, poii a portion of territory not equal to one- fourth of ranee! 44 In order to distribute the water necessary for the daily life of the inhabitants, and the gas which produces a light so brilliant and so pure, that it seems, even in the darkest nights, to be almost ah nticipation of dawn,— to fulfil this one object of eneral utility, pipes and Conduits have been laid lown, which even already form a ramification of above 400 leagues beneath the pavement of London, ' The communications in; the open air are an objeeC of equal solicitude, and of works even vaster still. The roads which already existed are enlarged; are {• constructed with more art, and kept up with more csire.— New channels are thrown open to commerce, nd a system of roads is now being formed, of which the total length is at present more than 46,000 leagues in England alone. While these prodigies are taking place, basins nd ports are constructed for shipping. Moles, piers, lighthouses, newly established, increase the security f access, and the shelter of every anchorage upon a line of more than 600 leagues of coast.

Shortly afterwards, town which thrives, and of which the exuberant wealth seeks every where productive outlets — Liver- pool— aspires to still higher designs: she is the first to form and to realize the project of opening a navigable channel between the Irish Sea and the German Ocean. Other channels, cveti more ex tended, arc established by degrees: thus, within the ftttaccUaiucus Enmitgtnc*. POLICE.— Queen's Square Office, London.— Monday evening, soon after seven o'clock, a respect- able- looking man, who gave his nam^ Christopher Dickenson, of Shrewsbury, was charged with having that day distributed a number of treasonable placards in the neighbourhood of the Horse Guards, Privy Gardens, and Whitehall, stating that during the last ten years he had lieen robbed of a considerable pro- perty by the unjustifiable oppression of law ; that for the last seven years he had been applying for re- ress, not only to his Majesty and ihe two Secretaries of State, but also to the Gentlemen of the House of Commons ; but that, after all these efforts, no redress was to be had. That, therefore, his Majesty, as respected the due administration of justice, had not acted up to the coronationoath ; that, finally, George the Fourth, commonly called the King, ought to be ueh no longer, but his heir put upon the throne. Mr. Dickenson said, that lie had recently come to London, from Shrewsbury, to see his daughter, who resided in North. street at the west of the town. Mr. Markland.— But if you came only to visit your daughter, why did you publish ( looking at the pla- aMs) these things ? Mr. Dickejison— Because I had lost my property, Sir, and could obtain no redress. Mr. Markland.— There was no occasion atany rate to publish such a treasonable paper as this. Depositions were entered by the parties, who took the papers down from the places where Mr. Dieken. son hung them, and they were required to authenti- cate their identity by their own signatures. Mr. Dickenson expressed his wish not to be re- manded to the watch- house, as two hours' confine- ment in the nfght, in such a place, might cause his death Sir. Markland.— Von will be accommodated in one of the best places we have, which is Tothill- fields, and T will endeavour to see Mr. Hobhouse early in *' e morning. On Tuesday, Jane Ferriday ( Mr. Dickenson's daughter)/ who resides in North- slreet, Manchester- square, applied to Mr. Markland for permission to visit her father in Tothill- fields; on which occasion Mr.. Mark I and, who had returned from consulting the Under Seetrftary for . the Home Department on the ubject of Mr. Dickenson's committal, requested that » he would give up certain letters which she had belonging to. Mr. Dickenson ; and she left the office, accompanied by Gilmore, the officer, for that pur. fj'ose . fMfr. Diejtensn. b,; who, was formerly a gentleman farmer at High Hatfon Hall, but . who was unfortunate bis . agricultural pursuits, has for some years reside^ u in Shrewsbury ; and our readers will recol- lect that h£ has 011 several occasions published ad vertisemenrs, detailing his loss of property, & e. in this Paper.] MINTATURE CURIOSITIES.—<- We recently no- ticed the fact of Mr. Glover, watch- maker, of this town, having in his possession a full copy of thfe Lord's prayer in half the siie of a split pea. The paragraph has been copied into most of the News- papers, aud having attracted the attention of Mr. Moss, of Cheltenham, that gentleman has ad dressed a letter to the Editor of the Cheltenham Chronicle, in which the following curious facts are stated:— Antiquity recoids many penmen whose glory consisted in writing so small a hand that it was not legible to the naked eye. One wrote a verse of Homer on a grain of millet, and another transcribed the whole Iliad in so confined a space that it could be enclosed in a nut- shell. Menage says he has read whole sentences which were not perceptible to the eye without the aid of a micro- scope. He has even teen Portraits and Pictures of the same kind, and what appeared lines and scratches thrown down at random were letters in capitals. The curious in miniatures have not con- fined themselves to writing only. Looking over some memoranda which bear the date of the last century 1 found the account of a piece of work- manship of the most ingenious mechanism that perhaps this or any future age may boast of. Mr. Nelinger, by trade a turner, in the Strand, London, did make a cup of a pepper corn, which held 1200 other little cups, all turned in ivory, each of them gilt on the edge and standing 011 a foot, tbe pepper corn not near full, would have held 400 more. He likewise made a brass chain two inches long, which bad 200 links, with a hook, padlock, and key, all which weighed no more than the third part of a grain. Mr. Boverick, watchmaker, in the Strand, did make a quadrille table with a drawer in it, eating table, and sideboard table, looking giass5 twelve chairs with skeleton backs, two dozen plates, six dishes, one dozen knives, one dozen forks, 12 poons, 2 salts, a frame and castors, together with a gentleman and lady, and footman, all contained in a cherry stone. In the collection at Don Sal tero's Coffee House, at Chelsea, was to be seen 8 dozen and 8 silver spoons in a cherry stone. The Gazette of Tuesday night contains a pro- clamation, denouncing the penalties of the 44 Foreign Enlistment Bill" against all of his Majesty's sub- jects who shall, in any wise, aid the hostilities carried on against the Ottoman Porte, by its late subjects. This Proclamation has been treated by some ofthe Papers as an overt act of enmity against the Greeks,— but without any good reason. It is obviously no more than a measure of strict neutrality. The banking establishment of Square, Prideaux, and Co. at Kingsbridge, stopped payment on Wednesday. MARRIAGE IN HIGH LIFE.— On Tuesday morning were married, at St. Mary's, Mary- le- bone, G. I. Cholmondeley, Esq. to the Hon. Mary Towns, bend, youngest daughter of Lord Sydney. After the ceremony, they set off for his Lordship's seat, Frognal, Kent. We understand the bridegroom is in his 75th year, and the bride about 30. Dr. M'Sweeny, Roman Catholic Professor of Theology in the College of Carlow, has offered to engage in discussion 011 the subject of distributing the Scriptures, & c. in opposition to Messrs. Daly Singer, & c. of the Bible Society.— Why did he not appear at the meeting appointed for that purpose The Citizens of Bristol are about to try the validity of the present mode of electing the Mayor and Sheriffs of that city. At present the Body Corporate elect those officers from their own select uumber: some of the citizens contend that the right of election is vested in the citizens and com- monalty at large of the place. On Sunday morning, au old man and his wife, upwards of 70 years of age, residing at Birtle, near Bury, in Lancashire, were found murdered. It is supposed that they were in the act of going to bed when the deed was perpetrated, as the old woman had one stocking on. The old man's head was cloven to the chin with a spade that lay beside him. These poor people were very industrious and had the reputation of having saved money The villains left behind the old man's watch and 10s. in silver. All the Piinces and Princesses of England, brothers and sisters of George IV. who are on the Cont inent, lately met at Homburg, Ibe capital of ihe Landgraye iif Hesse.

A pretty tolerable idea may be formed of Ihe size and quality uf the Axminster, carpets laid down in Ihe music rooms io Ibe Royal Pavilion al Bright- on, when it is known lhat the gross weight of caeh is between sixteen and seventeen hundred pounds. Oil Wednesday offers were made by one putt;/ to enter into contracts to have supplied two millions and a quarter of hard slock bricks, during the remaining portion of the present year alone, and to be paid for as delivered. The scfoe of operation for these millions of bricks at one order, and just lo begin wilh, is the large new square to be built at Ihe hack of Grosvenor- place, aud which is to be called Btlgrave square. Lord Grosvenor's income at present exceeds £- 250,00( 1 a year, and leases falling in in a short lime will give it a vast increase. IMPROVEMENTS IN TOWN.— By tbe removal of Ihe Turnpike at Hyde Park corner, Piccadilly, the Grosvenor estate will be improved ill value lo an incalculable extent. Let any one reflect what prodigious tract of land it is ; reaching to the River Thames across the wooden bridge at Chelsea, the whole of which will be covered with superb edifices. As to the rear of Grosvenor. place, wherein Belgrave square i3 to be built, our readers may judge what is calculated upon, when they are ( old that Mr. Coding, Ihe brewer at Knighlsbridge, has been offered sixteen thousand pounds for one of his bouses opposite the Park ; and this merely for the purpose of making an opening into the hew square. Belgrave square will, we arc told, be, in a few years, the Court end of London. . Under his impression it is the determination of Lord Grosvenor to make this spot the vehicle of his future fanie. The elevation of every house will be one story higher than any modern building, and every front to be of stone ; the area lo be consider- ble. As a proof bow uecessary it is to build houses upon u large scale, there are now no less ban thirty two applications upon the books of House Agents for town residences of Ihe size of mansions.— Morning Paper. There is a very different story current from that which appeared in Ibe Courier, relative to the iio portant question of n Dissolution of Parliameiri ll is said, lhat, as far as opinion went, Mr. Can- ning was in a minority, and that, finding himself in a measure pledged tu the support of the indi- viduals of his own party who hold seats, aud who were likely to lose them in the agitation arising out of the Catholic Question, he immediately declared that, if an immediate Dissolution was resolved upon, be would give in his resignation. This was stated by Ihe Earl of Liverpool lo Ihe King, and, it being considered that Mr Canning's services could not be dispensed with, all idea ofa Dissolo. tion during Ihe present year was abandoned Dublin Rreninii lJv\ t. GENERAL ELECTIOK.- Thefollowingquestions were submiited to the Nation as points of advice in Ihe reign of King James the Firsi ; they applied to the then existing Parliament, and upon the eve of a General Election may again interest the public:— u Have we cast our eyes upon the worthiest men of all soi ls, Knights and Gentlemen that are lights and guides iu their counties, ex- perienced Parliament. men, wise and discreel States, men, that have been practised in public affair whether at home or abroad ; grave and eminent Lawyers, substantial Citizens and Burgesses, and generally such as are interested and have a portion in the Slate? Have we made choice of such as are well affected in religion, without declining either on the one hand to blindness or superstition, or on the Other hand to schism or turbulent disposition!" On Monday, Ihe Austrian Observer of Ibe 21st nit. and the Allgemeine Zeitung of Ihe 2Pith were received. They contain the speech of the Emperor of Austria to ihe States of Hungary. His Majesty notices wilh much feeling ihe great events thai have occurred since he last met ihem, and alludes lo a proposition he had to make, " directed to the good of Ihe State." The most important part of the speech is, however, tbe confidence wilh which Ibe Emperor speaks of Ihe certain hope of conti- nued peace, a declaration calculated to quiet those alarmists w ho sec a preparation for war in every armed vessel that leaves a French port, or in every review of a dozen regiments in Russia. VENICE.— Under a dark and relentless admi- nistration Venice Was formerly the throne of pleasure, the chosen'Seat not Only of Italian but of European festivity. The imagination may now fondly linger over what was then Ibe present source of pride and gratification to tlie ambitious, the busy, and the gay; her picturesque situation, throned on her huudred isles; the magnificence of her Palladia!! elevation her churches aud palaces of every style and decora lion, slumbering un their shadows in tbe " long- drawn aisles of her canals;" her docks, aud lier arsenals, stored with all the furniture of war; her quays so strangely crowded with Ihe mingled costumes of the eastern and western world ; glitter. with Ihe pageant, or heaped with costly mer. chandize; echoing tbe stream of music, Ibe peal of merriment, or Ihe busy hum of commerce. But in so fair a city, all this splendour, festivity, and lively activity was consistent with scenes of secret, bill excessive horror. Her palaces and her prisons were contiguous; and while Ihe masque aud the revel encircled the edifice of Government, that ancient pile covered abodes of misery, from which mercy and hope were alike excluded. During tbe gayest hours of Venetian pleasure, in the throng of the casino, or in the mazes of the carnival, individuals disappeared from society, and were heard of no more: to breathe an inquiry after their fate was a dangerous imprudence; even to mourn their toss was an act of guilt. Before the secret council of Govern- ment, tbe informer was never confronted with ihe accused; the victim was frequently denied a hearing, and hurried to death, or condemned to linger for life in Ihe dungeons of State ; hisoftence and its punish ment untried aud unknown. Tiie influence of i secret police pervaded the city; Ihere was no sweet privacy in domestic life, no confidence in familiar discourse, which was not chilled or violated by fears and suspicions, or a detestable treachery, against which ihere was no assurance, which 110 caution could guard against, and where no sharp- sightediiess could point out the source of danger.— The jealousy of such a Government as lhat of Venice, equally excluded the public eye from piercing tbe mystery of its constitution and of its proceedings; and as long as tbe republic existed, it was vain to expect the ilevelopemeiit of the system. The secret archives of tbe State were withheld from the inspection of its subjects. No Venetian dared to incur tbe resentment of the vindictive oligarchy; and the researches of foreigners could glean only such details as the cautious subserviency or imperfect knowledge of native writers would permit or enable theui to publish. A piece of land adjoining the church yard of Brewood, which lias been generously presented to tbe parish by tbe Hon. and Right Rev. the Lord Bishop of the Diocese, for the purpose of enlarging that cemetery, was oiiTuesdayge'nnight consecrated by his Lordship, and the ceremonial was attended by a numerous assemblage of spectators. The gift of ihe Bishop has been handsomely seconded by the liberality of Thomas VV. Giffard, Esq. the re spected Lord of the Manor, who from one of his quarries gratuitously supplies the stone for the erection ofa wall to form the boundary of Ibe new burial ground. After Ihe consecration, the Right Rev. Prelate proceeded lo the hospitable mansion of the Hon E Monektou, at Somerford, and dined there with a distinguished party. IMPORTANT TO BE KNOWN.— There is 110 foundation for tbe slatemeut lately published in most papers, that handbills giving police of rob. beries may be seot post free, through the Post- office, to magistrates or postmasters. A circu- lar has been sent to all postmasters, to caution them against suffering such bills to pass post- free, — Bradford Courier. Wednesday night, a gang of sixteen poachers, from Colerue, were surprised at Harlham, near Corsham, by a party of keepers aud tenants of Paul Mcthnen, Esq. nineteen in number, and, after a sharp scuffle, eleven were secured, and lodged in Corsbam blind house. On tbe following morning, they were taken before J. Fuller, Esq. and committed to Devizes House of Correction. An article dated Aylesbury, Oclobcr 1, states, among Ihe local occurrences of tbe week, we noiice lhat a black man, who calls himself Wm. Luboys, 1 native of Africa, lias beeu preaching several imes in the town and neighbourhood of Aylesbury, tie has attracted numerous hearers. One of hit observations is somewhat forcible ; he says that before his arrival in England, lie had no idea thai he people of Ihis country, who sent missionaries 10 foreign countries to convert tbe natives it) Christianity, were themselves addicted to swearing, drunkenness, and all kinds of vice. O11 the evening of Thursday week, a fellow propped upon stills, with one leg tucked up, and the other trailing, was busied soliciting charity from ihe charitable inhabitants of St. MichaePs- street. His woful story, of having a loin dis- jointed, and a leg broken, together with variou* other lamentable disasters, was procuring for him a pretty good night's earning, when the boys and he having fallen out, a whole multitude of imps congregated around him, and commenced plucking bis skirts, calling names, and allcmptiug lo pull from beneath him the two supports of his maimed person ; all which so exasperaled the cripple, lhat al last, utterly forgetting his lameness, and alive only to tbe impulse of revenge, he cocked both of his stills above bis head, and scampered off after bis assailants as 1lawllti as the fleetest and soundest among Ihem. The people who wimessed Ibe cure, instead of calling out " A miracle!" hung their brows, and muttered something about ill- bestowed charity.— Dumfries CouHer. FOUNDATION STONE OF THE NEW LONDON BRIDGE.— The Scottish granite merchants of Aberdeen, and those of Kayter, Devonshire, being both alike anxious to supply the huge undertaking of London Bridge wilh Ihe quantum of slone required, Ihe chief struggle between ihem arose about who should furnish the foundation stone, as by obtaining this point, the greatest share, if not ihe whole of the work, would hi all probability come to that party. The Devonshire people brought their stone lo London a month and more before the imposing ceremony of laying took place — a beautiful stone, of nearly a square form, and weighing about five tons; ihey brought il but roughly hewn, having plenty of time to polish it lo a beautiful smoothness, never doubting fur an inslant but that they would completely overreach their Scottish rivals, being quite beforehand with thein, for their stone had not as yet appeared. However, two days before ihe ceremony took place, Ihe Scottish stone arrived in the Thames; and Donald, its owner, being apprised of ihe proceed, iugs of Ihe Devon quarriers, made use of all his natural caution aud secresy ; he silently put bin stone in a barge, in the dark hour of night, and stole up the river with il to ( lie coffer- dam, where, obtaining assistance, he soon swung it ( in Ibe slings) above that place where the Lord Mayor ceremoniously fixed it. Next day the good people of Devon brought their's down, glistening from the wiiarf, highly finished wilh Ibe chisel; but how minified were Ihey 011 finding a block of Aberdeen granite, squared in a masterly manner, in lhat situation intended for theii's. Tiie Hayter Chief in anger exclaimed, that " Donald had come too far north for him;" when Ihc latter replied, after taking a hearty sneesher, " e'en sae, man." JUST IN TIME.— On Wednesday morning last, Mr. Hewitt',' the trunk' maker, whose shop is situ- ated under the warehouse which was burnt down in Lord- street, Liverpool, applied to the a » eul of an Insurance Office in that town for a fireman, lo ascer- tain whence tbe smell of burning which prevailed in his preniiaes proceeded The man, after mak- ing the examination, and finding, as he supposed, all safe, advised Mr. H. lo insure bis property. This advice lie was not slow fo lake, and repairing to the Fire- office, said lhat be wished lo insure his property to the amount ofa hundred pounds! " A hundred pounds," said the active agenl, " you had beticr insure two' hundred." " Verv well," said Mr. Hewitt, " two hundred lie it." The instructions were accordingly received for that Slim, and before the ink was well dry upon the paper, the premises were burnt down. IRISH PROVISION CONTRACT— It is curious, and, indeed, important, to mark the great advance that Iras laken place in Ihe Provision Contract since the year I; v22 ; during this period, the con- tracts for Irish Provisions have been taken at the following rates : — 1S2- 2 £ 4 17 6 1S23 5 15 0 1824 6 2 6 182 5 7 12 6 Dublin Morning Post. Within these thijee or four years, a considerable change has taken place in the trade in corn carried 011 between the east and the west of Scotland. Formerly Glasgow drew large supplies from tbe Falkirk and Linlithgow markets, and from the country eastward, as far as Berwick But, latterly, the grain of Ireland has not only supplanted lhat of Fife and the Lotbians in Glasgow, but is gradu- ally finding its way into tbe easl of Scotland. Au agent now appears regularly in Ibe Falkirk market for the sale of Irish corn, which is oiled partially by Ihe brewers and distillers, as far cast as Lin- lithgow. Of course the trade in corn up Ibe canal from Grangemoulh has greatly diminished. Hitherto, four. filths of ihe grain imported from Ireland consisted of oats, but the change of the distillery laws is likely to produce an increased demand for barley. The average imports from Ireland into Scotland for 1823, and some year, previous, was about 200,000quarters ; but in 18- 21, when prices were rather high, the quantity wan doubled. The English imports from Ireland average about 800,000 quarters, of which two. thirds consist of oals, aud. nearly one- third of wheat and wheat flour. Tbe wheat and barley brought from Ireland to Scotland, previous to 1824, > 11 quite trifling in quantity. FROM THE AGRICULTURAL REPORT POX SEPTEMBER.— The price of live stock of all descriptions, which was depressed by the actual and prospective deficiency of food, is now reviving from the abundance of herbage, generated by the mild rain we have experienced; and there seems every reason to expect that fat stock wilt be very scarce and dear, ill many places tbe dry summer has prevented the farmer from maintaining his usual stock, or being able to make out for the market either sheep or cattle in his customary manner. They remain in a store slate only, and nothing bin cake aud corn can be relied 011 for finishing Ihem during Ihe winter. Horses are somewhat declining io price, and a farther declension may be expected from the advanced season of the year, aud from 1111 increased importation front Flanders. The general failure of hops is fully established, Worcestershire is most favourably re- ported of: Ihe neighbourhood of Maidstone, of which some hopes were entertained, turns out worse than expected. Tbe Wealds of Kent and Sussex have quite failed, and the gardens about Far. iham, which in years of fair produce grow half a ton, will not yield on au average a hundred and a half. There is hardly any thing stirring in the wool trade, but such sales as have been effected, have been done on better terms than this time twelvemonth, though the prices of the spring have 1101 been maintained. £ normous importations probably oc- casion a temporary glut in the market, but tbe main cause of stagnation in tbe wool trade seems to be the unhappy disputes which still divide the master manufacturers and their workmen BANKBUPTS, OCT 4— William Cowdroy, of Gor- ton, Lancashire, glue- maker. - John Nicllnt and Peter Nicliol, of Cornhill, merchants.— William Ilill, of Ariiudel- streel, Pantou- sqirare, tailor — John Smith, of Broad- street, broker.— Edward Sandwell, of the Strand, tavern keeper.
