O U S E O V CO A! M O NS - W E D N ES DAY. Mr. SYK- ES presented a petition from Hull, com plain fug- of ( he depression of ihe Shipping- Interest, and praying au inquiry,— Mr. WARBL'RTON thought that the stagnation in ship- building', and the trades con- neetfd with it, arose from- the comparative cheapness of ship. building in Canada.— Mr. 11KATUCOT £, Mr. PlMLLies, and Mr. BARL<< 3 severally expressed an opinion that the state of the Shipping interest was such as to require an immediate aud cautious inquiry into the effect of Ihe changes which our Navigation Laws had uudergorie.— Lord M i LTON thought t hat the distress of which the Shipping Interest complained w- d- s oidy part of that general distress which was felt by all classes of the community,, and' which resulted from the metallic currency. was a friend to metallic ctirrency himself, but did not think the time for iutTod- tieiug it was judiciously selected. Mr. M. r iTZGEjfAi. n's motion relative, to tho Union wiih Ireland, wa* p^ fpoued from the ist to ihe Bib of MAV. HOUSE OF COMMONS-- THnUSD. VY. Lord ALTHORP Moved " That a Select Committee Be { appointed to take into Consideration the lnode of taking the poll at Coiiuty Elections • and to report to the House whether any measures can be taken to diminish the expense incurred by candidates at such elections." In support of the motion, his Lordship called the attention of the House to the enormous expense of county elections, which he had no hesita- tion in declaring to'be- a great grievance. The late election at York, though the candidates did not pro. « * eed to a, poll, cost from £ l' 2(), Ol) 0 to £ 150,000. It was Huid, that u. embers for counties, should be of higher rank aud fortune than those representing cities aud boroughs; but it. was- carrying the thing too far if a wan could not be elected for m county unless he expended £ 100,000 to attain that object. His Lord- ship having addueed other arguments for his motion, briefly stated Kr- o motfes which he intended to submit to the Committee for their selection. It would be for them lo decide which was the most preferable. The one wasy. to have inferior officers to the Sher- iti' appointed at different places in the county to take the \ oles of the freeholders ; the other was, for the Sheriff t9 go the circuit of the county to receive the freehold- ers1 votes-.—' Ihe question being put from the chair, Mr. VV, SMITH and Mr. L. MABERLEY supported the motion.— The CHANCELLOR OF THE- EXCHEQUER did not see any insuperable objection to the shortening the time of elections, but'he disliked taking the poll in different, parts of the same county at the s& me time. He considered it a great advantage to the purity of election that candidates should bear to be badgered bv the electors, which could not be done if the candidate were" thus separated from his constituents.— Lord MILTON assented to the utility of that soil of cross- examination of a candidate by his const it uetHs ; hut lfe did not think Lord Aithorp's- proposal would do away the practice. He approved of tin.* motion, which was also supported' bv Sir J. WROTTBSLEY, Lord K'UGENT, and others-,— Mr. WYNN said, there was a subject of great importance in tiie treatment of any measure referring to the question, and that was, the assessment of the land- tax, which was becoming every day a more false criterion. The motion for the Com- mittee was then agreed to, • Mr. SYK- ES made his promised motion respecting the conduct of the Corporation of Leicester previous to and during; the late election. Several petitions had been presented to the House, stating that the Corpora- tion had elected so large a body of honorary freemen ( 800) as entirely to overpower ttaLreal freemen and electors of the borough, aud hadjJeid all the custom- ary fees, except £ 3. I5s.; that by so doing the Corporation brought in two- Members in their own interest, to the exclusion of a fair- competitor for the geueral suffrages of the electors; and that among the honorary freemen so elected were one hundred anu four clergymen, whose influence w. fts called in to support , the views of tlie Corporation , contrary to the spirit of the Election Laws. The Hon. Member con- cluded by moving " That a Select Committee be appointed to take i. uto'consideration ' tire? petitions of certain freemen of the borough of Leicester." After a prolonged discussion, in which Mr. C, W. W. Wynn, fcir C. Hastings, Mr, Cave, Mr. Peel, Sir F. Burdett, . .- Lord Milton, Mr. S. liice, Mr. Goulburn, Lord ftan- cliff'e, Mr. H. Gurney, and Mr. Pallmer took part, the House divided, and there appeared — For the motion, t) 8 j against it, 92; majority against it, 24. - HOUSE OF LORDS- FRIDAY, The Marquis of LONDONDERRY having presented a petition in favour of Cailioli. c Emancipation, took occasion to urge the necessity of granting concessions to the Catholics. The Earl of WINCH- ELSBA opposed any further concessions to the Catholics. Hia Lordship pointedly noticed the language used by Mr. Canning in the late debate in the House, cf Commons, and said it had done much to strengthen the hands unite the measures of those who wished to preserve our Protestaut Constitu- tion from Roman Catholic encroachment. His Lord- ship concluded by urging the great importance of the work of Reformation now in progress in Ireland— aud said, if that country were reformed, nothing would be wanting to complete its happiness. A petition, purporting to come from the Roman, Catholic Bishop of Waterford having been introduced, the LORD CHANCELLOR opposed its reception : he raid he could nol recognise but one Bishop of Water- ford, and that was the Protestant Bishop : no other person had a right to assume that title iu these realms. — The petition was theu withdrawn. The Earl of RODEN presented a petition, signed by 22,200 Protestants of the counties of( Londonderry aud Tyrone against the Catholic claims. His Lordship spoke stiongly on the subject of the present division in the Government respecting the Calholic Question, und expressed his hftpe that the time would shortly arrive when an united Cabinet would boldly support the Protestant Constitution against the attempt to create a Popish Ascendancy, The Bishop of CHESTER defended the work o" f Reformation now in progtess iu Ireland. HOUSE OF COMMONS— FRIDAY. The principal business was the- proposed Grant fo the Duke of Clarence. The subject underwent con- siderable discussion, and ihe grant was strenuously opposed by Messrs. Hume, Pendarves, W. Smith, Monck, Beaumont, Alderman Wood, and Sir. R, Ileron ; and advocated by Messrs. Maberly, Tennyson, Leycester, Calcraft, Plunkett, and Sir T. D. A eland. On a division, the motion for the Speaker's leaving the chair was carricd by 99 to 15. The grant then went through the Committee without further opposition.

General for Ireland.) iu the lale debate * ou Catholic Emancipation, ridiculed the idea uf persons being convened from the Roman Catholic to the Protestant failh, by the mode now iu progress at Cavuu and other parts of Ireland. His observations have excited a great sensation ; and the Courier of Saturday says—" Mr. Plunkett is the Representative of a Pro- testant University-; the heads, and almost all Ihe Electors of « liich are Clergymen or Divinity Students; and lie has probably learned, by Ibis time, what have beru the effects, upon his cousiitucuts, of the senti- ments into which he was betrayed. We have received letters froul Dublin, which speak iu no measured terms of these effects. ' Ji is quite impossible to give you an adequate idea,' saj s Ihe writer of oue of them, • of the indignation and disgust which liuve been created in tlie minds of all the respectable pari of the community here, in consequence of Mr. Plunkett's sneers at the exertions now making lo advance 1 lie reformation so gloriously in progress in Ireland. Mr, Plunkett, no doubt, has a right to his opfliions ; Inn when he knows, or ought lo know, that the same means are now used to forward the Reformation, ( the reading of the Scriptures,) which, under Providence, were Ihe cause of that blessed event in its first com- mencement, it is nol too much to say, that lie might have treated, without scorn, ilie effec's now producing through Ihe same agency. Could you see the congre gations that are assembled every Sunday evening throughout Dublin, you would enter into tiie feelings of those who grieve Ihat Mr. Plunkett should have lent liis talents to sneers which could only be expected from such a man as Mr. Home ! When you learn that on Sunday next, in Ihe very parish in which Mr. Plunketrs house is situated ( St. Peter's),, three priests of llie Roman Catholic icltgion mill fifteen lay. men, are lo read their recantation iu ihe Church, you will feel that llie sentiments so generally expressed towards bun, are well- founded.' " We do feel tins, and we feci it with regret, pro- portioned to ihe high respect which Mr. Plunketl's talents aud character are so eminently calculated to inspire. How different was the language of a dis. tinguislied Prelate, lust night, in the House of Lords, upon this same subject. ' Woe to that Christian,' said the Bishop of Cheater, ' who should attempt to stem the torrent flood of Gospel light, that was spreading over the world ! Proceeding'iu ihe spirit of humility' and charily, that Christian work would still go on and prosper: the tide of reformation would still advance Willi an irrcsisiablc progress: aud in success would, In after limes, he written In characters of light among the annals of ihe present age.'

Barley continues very dull sale, but fine malting samples sold as high as 40s. per quarter. Beans and Pease of both descriptions were nearly in n stagnant state, nothing having been done in either of them. The Oat Trade is in the same condition, as the factors continue to demand the saute prices: no business has been transacted. In other articles there is no alteration.

OMFORD CIRCUIT. READING.— At these Assizes, sentence of d<?& t! vwas recorded against eighteen prisoners, viz. four for sheep^ stealing, bne for horse- stealing, six for burglary, four far stealing in a dwelling, house, two for privatel ystealing, and one for knowingly utter- ing forged notes; three were sentenced to transportation for seven years, nine to be imprisoned for various periods, three were admitted evidence, and the remainder weie acquitted or discharged.— Total 45. At these Assizes, ten actions were brought to try the validity bf certain votes given at the last election for the borough of Reading, where the right is in the resident inhabitants paying scot and lot, and the penalty is £ 20 for every vote illegally given. In the first case, the defendant, Mr. Hart, had a corn- warehouse in the borough, for which he paid thelites; but it being admitted that hehad no domicile on the premises, where either himself or any of his family or servants slept., the jury, under the directions of. the Learned Judge, found a Verdict for the plaintiff, with leave for the defendant, to move for a non- suit, ' provided the Court above should not coincide in his Lordship's decision. In another case, the defendant ( Mr. Jewett) was the offici- ating Minister of a Society of Wesleyan Methodists; and it was contended for the plaintiff, that although defendant was nominally rated and paid scot and lot for the house lie occu- pied, being only, as to temporal concerns, the servant of the Society, he therefore had no more right to vote than any other agent would have. It was argued for defendant, that his was as good a vote as any in the borough; he was rated and paid the rate; and, in case of default, was liable to summons and distress, in common with all the other rated inhabitants,—- The Learned Baron left the decision to the jury, who immediately gave a verdict for the defendant. Verdicts against the defendants were given In al! the eight other cases; and these decisions leave Mr. Spence ( one of the sitting Members) in a considerable minority. Breach of Promise - of Marriage.— • Went worth t>. King— The plaintiff was a dress- maker, and the defendant a chemist and druggist, both of Newbury. The promise was clearly proved to have been made, and renewed, even after the insolvent circumstances of the plaintiff became known to the defeudant. Verdict for plaintiff— Damages £ 100. OXFORD.— Sixteen prisoners were canitally convicted; of whom, Richard Webb, for stalling a gelding, the property of T. Pearman, of Mapledurham, received sentence of death, without hope of mercy being extended to him: an indictment found against, him for arson at the same place, was not tried. Thomas Billing, and Joseph and John Price, for a daring burglary at Islip, were also left for execution, after a very solemn'exhortation from Mr. Baron Garrow, who implored them to discard all idea of any remission of their awful doom. Sentence of death was recorded against the twelve following, vis. William Piff, for stealing a mare, the property of Joseph Yeend, of Elmstone Hardwick, near Gloucester; Robert Roads, Richard Hill, Edward Lisnev, and Packer Mavnhood, for sheep- stealing; John and Reuben Butler, Thomas Coomb9, and Matthew Radband, for burglary; and John Collins,' James Harvey, and Thomas Powell, for stealing bacon. Four were sentenced to be transported for seven years, nine to bo im- prisoned, and ouo was fined ls. and discharged. WORCESTER.-— The business commenced here on Monday morning, Mr. Baron Garrow presiding at the Crotva Bar, and Mr. Baron Vaughan at Nisi Prius. The former seems to be but partially recovered from his recent illness, and it appears scarcely probable that his Lordship will be able to go through the fatigues of the Circuit.-. Against James Maden,; found guilty of stealing a mare at Chelmarsh, Salop; and Thos. Fell, for stealing a large quantity of wearing apparel in a dwelling- house at Yardley, sentence of death was recorded — . The. fol- lowing fifteen were found guilty, but sentence deferred, viz. Wm.

Aston, and Henry Burns, for stealing books and other articles, in the night, from a schoolroom at Mosely.—- Sentence of transports, tion for seven years was passed upon thirteen, viz., Samuel Fielders, for burglary at, Bewdiey; John Taylor and William Munn, for stealing 18 gallons of beer, in the night, from the cellar of their master, T. Steward, Esq. near Kidderminster; James Berresford, Jolvn Wright, William Tustin, and Charles Lote, for stealing poultry at Bromsgrove; David Partridge, for stealing £ 23 in money, from an iron- chest in a counting- house at Kidderminster; John Trotter, for stealing cheese, flour, & c, from the dwelling- house of his master at Stoke- Prior; Richard Haines, for stealing clothes, from a servant's box at Grafton Flyford ; Wm.

Tu the Editor of the Salopian Journal. SIR, "" " As it cultivator of Ihe soil, I nm rejoiced that the question of the Com Laws, which has agitated the pub- lic mind so long, is at length brought to a termination. Of the propriety or otherwise of Ihe duties on the importation of Wheat, Barley, or. Oats, I will not pretend to offer an opinion ; I leave it lo others more competent to judge thereon. But I must he permitted to observe how very cautions our legislators iu ihe Comiiloiis have been in their several orations, to avoid saving a word upuii the vital part of the question, viz. Ihe present . continued war rents; for, iufact, this is the grand evil of which all farmers have still so loudly to complain; uud until they are reduced to a peace, standard, and suitable to the'prices of Grain fixed upon bv the lale determination of the Commons, no effectual good can result from the leceut ugitatiou of the Corn Question. A reduction of taxes to the farmers has been recom- mended; but were all the taxes to which this class of his Majesty's subjects are payees removed, they would afford no substantia! relief ;. besides, with the extensive government dejit, those taxes cannot he spared. Tim whole matter lies iu a nutshell ; ( he fact is, farmers are oppressed in Shropshire with enormous rents, and unless landlords will immediately come forward and reduce ( hem lo prices squaring with ( he market prices of Grain, lliey will speedily have their laud ou their own hands. As a proof of the necessity. of this being done, does not your own paper contain the iipprnachiiig sales of many disihignished landlords, who are selling-, from a conviction, no doubt, of ( he losses sustained by cultivatihglheir own lands.. On reading the speeches of our 550 members, few appear to have understood ( he question, hut lhat it is finally settled, every farmer must he rejoiced al. Wheat will he sold hereafter al 7 or 8 shillings, and landlords must make tip their minds lo suitable rents- the manufacturer will be satisfied; und a, vjle agitation will be happily terminated. I am. Sir, Your most obedient servant, A CULTIVATOR 2d March, 1827. THE LATE DR. . MILN ER. To the Editor of the Salopiun Jouruvl. SIR, A nameless Casiigator has descended into the arena lo chastise my temerity in having attempted tn vindi- cate the character of Dr. Miluer. He had been accused of having asserted, with gratuitous falsity, ilia! the late Sir John Cox Hippisley died a Catholic. To shew thai Dr. M ilner bad not made the assertion gratuitously; I mentioned two admitted facts, viz. tliat Sir John, on his death- bed, bad requested the attendance of the Rev. Mr. Devereiix, a Catholic Priest, and lhat Mr. Devereux had been refused admission to Sir John, To Ihis Castigator opposes what he calls a fact, viz. that Sir John did not die a Catholic. This hiis indeed beeii asserted : but how the assertion ensi be called a fact, I confess 1 ain unable lo comprehend. I dispute a t the honesty of Sir J. Stuart Hippisley in having made ihe assertion; but to convert the assertion into ( he fact itself which is disputed, will require all the ingenuity of Castigator. If Castigator believes lhat a man, near tbe point of denth, on the brink of eternity, ( as Sir John appears to have been at ( he time of Mr. Bishop's urgent application to Mr. Devereux,) would request tbe at- tendance of a Catholic Priest for Ihe mere purpose of consulting on prison discipline: if he believes this, I quarrel not wilh bis belief, nor do I envy bis credulity. With respect to Dr. Hallifax having wished to die" a Catholic, I referred lo Dr. Milner'sstatertieiit, in which lie says, that he has been informed on grutd authority .* and I afterwards spoke of'the information ns positive information. In this, Custigator seems to have dis. covered a contradiction, or al leas! an unfair assumption on my part. As Dr. Milner said thai he had been informed, aud as this information was not negative, since Dr. Milner mentions what he was informed of, I ( bought I might fairly call it positive information : for between negative nnd positive 1 knew no intermediate' relative term. I yield however lo Castigator the palm of logical acumen. If I had studied the subtleties of logic as much as I have laughed at them, I might perhaps have been able to recognise Castigator's dis- covery. Unfortunately my dull perception sees it not. - Castigator thinks that the mere ipse dixit of Dr. Parr is abundantly sufficient to scatter to the'w inds of heaven, and even to annihilate an assertion from Dr. Milner. He speaks of the stupendous talents of Di\ Parr. Nor do I call them in question. But Custigator, in the enthusiasm of Iiis admiration, goes a step, aye! many steps farther, even to the point of infallibility; Ne quid nimis. He tfiay be angry at my refusal : but really I must declHie to accompany him so far. I maintain not the infallibility of I) r. Milne. r; nor am I prepared to admit the infallibility of Dr. Parr. A matter of fact is between them, on which either may have been honestly mistaken. I cannot indeed dis-, cover that Dr. Parr has absolutely denied the truth of Dr., Mil tier's information ; bnt only tbat| he has called on Dr. Milner to prove it. That the Son of Dr. Hallifax has denied it, I yield to the assertion of Casfigator, But 5 cannot admit that the denial decides the case, while 3 am unacquainted with the grounds of the counter- evidence of Dr. Milner's information. After all, if Dr. Miiner asserted that he had been informed on good authority that Dr. fiaUifax - wished to die a Catholic, I have not contended, nor do I now contend for the accuracy of the information, but only for the honesty of the assertion. I may be excused perhaps in adding here, that I have in my possession two different printed ae. counts of another Protestant Bishop ( Dr. King, of Loudon, in the reign of James I.) having not only desired to die a Catholic, but having in reality died a Catholic. The accounts seein to rest on a suf- ficient foundation. But I press not tiie subject. If Casiigator should wish to examine into their'authen- ticity, both accounts are snitch at his service. I come now to the last and most important point, viz. the pretended obnoxious extract from Dr. Miluer'a writings. To vindicate the character of Dr. - Milner from the mischievous imputation conveyed by this passage, was indeed the chief object of my former letter. On ( he other points S would, not . have intruded on your column*;, had they not been accompanied by this. I felt persuaded, and I attempted to shew, tha k Dr. Milner had never written the sentence in question Does Castigator prove that ho did write and publish the sentence. No! He acknowledges that he has examined two editions of the work from which it is pretended to have been taken; and that he has not been able to discover ii, • He brings forward a mass of irrelevant matter, that may divert the attention of the reader from the real subject'of debate.; but lie proves not that the passage is genuine. He insinuates it how- ever, and appeals to my acquaintance with the tactics of my Church. I know no other tactics than those of honesty nnd truth. If he suspects me of insincerity, I forgive the suspicion, and take shelter iu the conscious- ness of an honest heart. I remain. Sir, Your obedient Servant, SAMUEL JONES* Shrewsbury, March 17, 1827.

" INADEQUACY OF THE PROPOSED ALTERATION TN the CORv LAWS, AS A PROTECTION TO AGRI- CULTURE.— In addition to the temporary evils which ihe agricultural interest has suffered in common with all classes from the fall of prices, and from which they have derived 110 compensating advantage as others have, there remain the poor- rates, which fall upon the land with a weight increased iuths inverse ratio of the power of the land to support it, and the whole class of mortgage- debts, rent- charges, and terms- raised, constituting what the lawyers call real incumbrances. A species of burthen, cor- responding to which' the commercial and manufac- turing classes have 110 charge upon them, and a spekdes of burthen from which no nationaliprosperity affords tbe least relief. Some taxes have beeu taken off, it is true; but this affects in a very trifling de- gree those whose estates were in 1812 or 1813 mortgaged for sums, or encumbered wilh charges, tho bare interest of which cannot be defrayed at the present prices. To the proprietors of such estates, the fluctuation in the value of money, combined with the proposed establishment of a maximum price of corn, aw low as 50s.— and this will be tlie real effect of Mr. Canning's resolutions — would be utter ruin, even did those resolutions secure a maximum, which they do not.— Evening Paper.

SAINT DAVID'S COLLEGE — The Opening of this Institution, to which so much interest is attached, took place on the lst instant, but, in consequence of the unavoidable absence of the Bishop— an absence which, we are assured, his Lordship most feelingly regrets— it was not accompanied with any public ceremony. The solemnities, expected to be attend- ant on an event so proud to Wales, were therefore, in accordance with the wishes of the Governors of the College, deferred to a future opportunity— when the College Chapel will be consecrated with ceremony befitting the sacred occasion. This will take place in the course of the summer. The Stu- dents, having been previously examined by the Principal and Professors, were, however, admitted — in number, about forty, atid sat down to dinuer iu the College Hall.

SIB, only be released by scenes of blood and civil discord, at. which its lukewarm supporters may affect to scoff while the prospect is distant, but for which they would be held deeply responsible. Much has been said, by those Protestants w ho support the wishes of the Roman Catholics, of the superiority of the Protestant Religion over every other, and of its being thereby enabled to withstand every attempt to overthrow it. 1 would be th< i last man to under- value that superiority; but in what age of any Divine dispensation was such a reason ever before urged for the lukewarmness and neglect of true'be- licvers? Will the Almighty work miracles for those who will not assist themselves? Must we not rather expect that our ncglect will be visited by his vengeance, and that oar lukewarmness will issue in our own destruction? One word more on Mr. Slaney's hesitation. His anxiety for the developement of the broad principle ought to excite a just and determined watchfulness on the part of his Constituents: these broad princi- ples can only come into operation when our present Protestant form of Government shall have been reduced to a nullity. May such a consummation be very far distant! I can assure. Mr. Slaney that his expressed opinions during his forensic career are neither unknown nor forgotten ; his reference to the broad - principle will not be misunderstood in the circles of his former declarations— and his hesitation on the great Question lately agitated, while it excites in the breasts of most persons a doubt of his political stability, will, by the initiated few, be attributed to the struggle of unappeasable apprehensions with a preformed conclusion \ I remain, Mr. Editor, Your's respectfully, A BURGESS OF SHREWSBURY. March 1827. Jhuperial parliament. HOUSE OE COMMONS- MONDAY. The mutiny bill was read a third time. A debate of considerable length arose upon a proposition bv Mr. LEYCESTKR to abolish the punishment of flogging in regiments serving in the United Kingdom. The pro- position was rf'jected. The discussion of the Resolutions on ihe Corn Laws, was resumed in committee. It will be in the recollec- tion of our readers, that when the question was brought before the house on the lst inst. Mr. Canning proposed thirty shilliugs as the protecting price of Barley, and tv\ enty. two shillings as the protecting price of Oats; the duty on the former being ten, and on the latter seven shillings. When the House went into Committee on Monday, Mr. C. GRANT, Vice- President of the Board of Trade, moved that the protecting price of B. irley should he raised to thirty- two shillings, with a duty of twelve shillings, and the protecting price of Oats to twenty- four shilling", with a duty of nine shillings. On the resolutions, thus amended, being put, a debate of greater length than interest ensued, for Mr. HOBHOCSB and Mr. Alderman WOOD took a prominent part in it, against the alterations proposed by Mr. Grant. On the resolution- respecting Barley the House di- vided, when the numbers were — For the amended resolution. 215 For the original resolution.., 38 THE CORN QUESTION.— We extract the following from Mr. Layton Cooke's 2d edition of his " Prac- tical Observations on the Importation of Foreign Corn ;" a work replete with information upon the subject at this momentous crisis:—" The anxiety of manufacturers to require a market for their produc- tions, has induced them to hope that foreigners would take articles of British fabric ia payment for corn. The hope is delusive; for it could scarcely be expected that the serfs of Poland and Russia would require the luxuries of life essentia! only to those who have arrived at a high state of civilization. If in their past dealings with us, foreigners had taken our manufactured goods in return for corn, there might have been some reason for believing them inclined to cultivate a mutual interchange of commodities; but having hitherto received cash for the amount, it is not probable they would in future be satisfied with any other mode of negociation." The examination of witnesses relative to the late Coventry Election terminated on Tuesday; and on Thursday the Committee came to the decision that Messrs. Heathcote and Fyler were duly returned, aud that the Petition was not frivolous and vexatious. In the Court of King's Bench, on Wednesday, Mr. Dauncey, a cloth- factor, late of Cheltenham, obtained £ 1000 damages against the well- known Colonel Berkeley, for criminal conversation with the plain- tiff's wife.

To the northern portion of it, which Bishop Middleton ( who fonnd ample occupation at Calcutta and southern India) had never been able to reach, he firs! turned his steps; arid having journeyed as far as Merut,' leaving behind him,' says Mr. Fisher, the chaplain of the station, ' ail impression which I gtjrop0?) i « 2. nit Slsst??. It has been the nvsfortune of the Burgesses of Shrewsbury, for a considerable period, that their voice has been but imperfectly heard in the Great Council of the Nation ; and it is not without a sensa- tion of regret ( not lo use a stronger term) that I find, from the perusal of your yesterday's Journal, one of- the present Representatives of the Borough evading the decision of the most important Question that could be brought under the consideration ofa British Parliament, by urging as his reasons for so doing, the very facts which ought to have enforced upon him the necessity of promptly and firmly supporting the views ot' his Constituents— not only of those who signed the Petition, but of many others, to. whose avowed opinion on the subject he was no stranger, aud who will not fail to make known that opinion when the proper time arrives for giving force to their sentiments. Mr. Slaney says, bis reluctance to vote oil the Catholic Question did not proceed from any indif- ference towards the interests of the Protestant Church, but from a doubt how those interests may best be served, and the welfare ot the Empire pro- moted ; and as a reason for this doubt, he refers, on the one hand, to the broad principle of admitting all to an equal participation in the Constitution, w ho will take the Oath of Allegiance, and on the other, to the bigotry, intolerance, and violence ofthe Irish Catholic Association. If, Sir, I were asked, how a man could shew his indifference on any important subject, I should answer, that he would do so by walking away w ith- out taking part in the proceeding that was to bring that subject lo a determination ; and if I were asked, in particular reference to the interests of the Pro- testant Church, how aman could shew his indifference to those interests, 1 should answer, by turning. his back upon the decision ofa question, in which he had aright, and was bound in duty, to makehisvoice heard, aud when, as was the case iu the late instance, that voice might almost have been, either a casting vote in favour ofthe Protestant Church against the Supremacy of the Church of Rome— or in favour of tbe Supremacy of the Church of Rome, and for the humiliation of lhat Protestant Establishment and lhat Protestant Constitution, under which ( by the permission of Providence) this Kingdom has attained a rank iu the scale of nations hitherto unparalleled in the History of the World. Mr. Slaney's reference to the broad principle of general participation is not a new idea ; but if these liroad principles are once made grounds of legisla- tion, 1 should like to know where this latitudinarian mode of proceeding is to end. We have it, in the written and printed declarations of the Roman Catholics, lhat they will not be content until all restrictions, ( admission to the Throne and ihe re- possession of Church Property not excepted,) are removed as relates to them; and tinder the same argument of the broad principle, to what description whether professing Christian or . lew, Hindoo or Mahometan, of his Majesty's countless millions of subjects, can the right of participation he denied ? Mr. Slaney acknowledges the just views of the Petitioners, in reference to the Roman Catholic Association, and yet he refuses to support their prayer I he expresses his anxiety for the Protestant Church, and leaves its interests to be contended for by those w ho may think such contention worth their while! he urges his unwillingnessto act against the wishes ofhis Constituents, aud evinces that disin clinalion by stating his regard for a broad principle which goes directly to destroy the object of the solicitude of those Constituents ! Verily, 1 think a more notable expedient for stultifying the Repre- sentation of a respectable Borough, could neither have been devised nor put in execution. The Hon. Gentleman pleads, as a ground for his indecision, that the House of Commons and Minister nre almost equally divided on the Question : anil here I would join issue with him; foV of all reasons that could possibly be urged for a direct vote upon this great Question, the reason he assigns for not voting, is the very oue that ought to have enforced upon his mind the necessity of giving his vote. It was the crisis— the balance of the event— that made his vote of great importance;* and it is the consi deration of such a circumstance, with the probabili ties that ( I6ng, however, may such a calamity be averted '.) the Sceptre of these Realms may pass to a Minor, which oughl to determine every Elector to place his Suffrage in the hands only of those who will uncompromisingly maintain our Protestant Con stitution in Church and State as by law established What any Protestant, of any denomination, mu expect from a Church that admits of no salvation out of its own pale, can be no matter of doubt; and for ntiy one to say, that the admission of Roman Catholics to seats in Parliament, aud to the highest offices in the State, would not be, in tact, giving them the Ascendancy, is betraying an ignorance of the question that precludes discussion. Let Ibis, how- ever, be but granted, and the Protestant Religion would have to descend, step by step, to that state of humiliation and degradation, from which it could Majority in favour of Ministers 177 There seemed a considerable disposition on the part of fouie members to dispute, to the utmost, the resolu- tion respecting oats also, but it was ultimately agreed lo w ithout a division. HOUSE OF LORDS- TUESDAY. Several more Petitions were presented ayainst the Caf holies. The Bishop of BATH and WEI. I. S, on pre senling one of ihese Petitions, assured Ihe House that however opposed he was to any further concessions to the Catholics, he should he most happy to give his support to any measure calculated to improve the stale of Ireland. Lord CARBERRY, in answer to some observations by Lords Daruley ami Downshire, stated that the hest nod surest way of raising the Catholic population from their present degradation, was to emancipate them from ihe trammels of the demagogues by whom Ihey were exeiled and oppressed. The Earl of CAHXARVOX said lhat ihe Catholics of Ireland are kept in a slate of degradation as bad as that of ihe Greeks under the Turkish government. Lord KODEN said, Ilia! ( here are no people on the facc of ihe earlli who enjov more libprty than the Irish Catholics. They enjoy every civil and political right possessed hy British subjects, with the exception only of that of legislating for a Protestant church aud nation. The more ihe question is discussed, the better it will lie understood that i! is impossible to adm't Roman Catholics tn legislate under our Protestant Constitution. HOUSE OK COMMONS- TUESDAY. Mr. Secretary PtittL ( after an excellent speech, w hicli was applauded at nearly every sentence) brought iu his proposed hills for the consolidation of that part of the criminal laws whieh relates to burglary, larceny, und robbery. The effect of these hills upon ihe slalute hook will be lo sweep away no less than one hundred and thirty slalules, the essential pans of ihe whole of which will be comprised io twenly- nine pages. flliereUtineottfj EiUtUigenu. * Buta few days previous to the decision of the Catholic Quest ion, four Members who had formerly voted for the Catholic Claims had been ousted by decisions of Committees. If they had not lost their seats, what vould have been the re- sult of the division? Dispatches, dated the 20th of September, were received on Wednesday, from the Government of Bengal. They announce the important intelligence, that twenty- three and a half lacs of Rupees out of the second instalment, amounting to 25 lacs, due from the Burmese Government, had been received at Calcutta, and that the news from all parts of the British territories was of the most satisfactory nature. The accounts from Portugal are generally favour- able, though circumstances are from time to time disclosed, not altogether reconcileable with the tranquillity which the face of the country has lately exhibited, or with the facility with which the nsurrection was suppressed. The number of the efugees actually disarmed by the Spanish authori- es, certainly bears no proportion to that of the armed traitors who have passed into the territories of Spain; and from a circular addressed by the Portuguese government to the Ecclesiastical au- thorities, it is but too manifest that the clergy have not discontinued their pestilent exertions to kindle war against the Constitution.— From Spain, we learn, that Ferdinand is making extraordinary exertions to collect a respectable military force on the Portuguese frontier. This, however he may do without any design of engaging iu active hostilities, though the numerous desertions that have occurred n the regiments hitherto brought into contact with the Portuguese, seem to render very questionable the prudence of exposing his army to the contagion of liberty in the adjacent kingdom. The state of affairs in Greece is again a little brighter. Mr. Gordon is said, in letters of a late date, to be at the head of 5,000 men, better ap- pointed and better disciplined than any that have yet taken the field in the cause of Greek liberty; and the Greek Chiefs are represented as only wait- ng the arrival of Lord Cochrane, who was hourly expected, to commence active operations. The Neapolitan General Church, ( an Englishman,) and Mr. Lambton, tbe late member for Durham, have sailed from Naples to join the Greeks. There were present at the division on the Catholic Question 420 English members, 91 Irish, and 37 Scotch. The number absent amounted to 110, being 93 English, 9 Irish, and 8 Scotch. Of the Irish members 57 voted for Sir Francis Burdett's motion, and 34 against it; of the Scotch 22 for, and 15 against ; and of the English 193 for, and 227 against; leaving a majority of 34 English members against the motion. Elliston passed his final examination on Friday at the Court ot Commissioners. His debts are £ 40,000, and his available property to meet them is £ 15,000. When he became lessee ( 1819), be possessed £ 20,000, and laid out between 30 and £ 40,000 in decorations. The assignees were satisfied with his balance sheet, and expressed their conviction that his bankruptcy arose from unforeseen events alone. At a meeting of the Steam Boat Navigation Com- pany, held on Wednesday, it was resolved, owing to the disappointment of the expectations of the proprietors in regard to the; profits, to sell the George IV, and the Duke of York steam- packets at one- half their original value. It was stated that the outlay capital of deposit on shares amounted to £ 277,776. 9s.' Id. while the present value of all their vessels and debts, and entire property, amounted only to £ 170,000, being a loss of capital of upwards of £ 100,000 in a year and a half. The last accounts from St. Helena inform us that the house erected for Bonaparte's residence was un- occupied ; strangers going there, upon application to the Governor, are allowed to reside in it during their stay. At the old residence of Bonaparte, the room where he breathed his last is now converted into a threshing barn, and the other part of the house into stables, & c.~-- Evening Paper. CALENDAR.

On the river, indeed, so long as that lasted, our progress is easy and pleasant ( bating a little heat and a few storms), carried on by a strong south- eastern breeze, in a very roomy and comfortable boat, against the stream of a majestic body of water, with a breadth, during the rainy season, so high up as Patra, of from six lo nine miles, and even above Patra, as far as Cawnpore, in no place narrower than the Mersey opposite Liverpool. But it is after leaving the Ganges for the land journey, that, if not the tug, yet no small part of the appara- tus, proventus, et comrneatus, of war, commences. It has been my wish, on many accounts, to travel without unnecessary display. My tents, equipments, and number of servants, are all on the smallest scale which comfort or propriety would admit of. They all fall short of what are usually taken by the collectors of districts; and in comparison w ith w hat the commander- in- chief had with him the year before last, I have found people disposed to ery out against them as quite insufficient:. Nor have I asked for a single soldier or trooper beyond what the commanding officers o^ tlis- trids have themselves offered as necessary and suitable. Yet, for myself and Dr. Smith, the uuiled numbers amount to three elephants, above twenty camels, five horses, besides ponies for our principal servants, twenty- six servants, tweuty- fdx hearers of burdens, fifteen elashees to pitch and remove tents, elephant and camel- drivers, 1 believe, thirteen ; and since we have left the Company's territories, and entered Rajapootam, a guard of eighteen irregular horse, and forty- five sipahees on foot, including native officers. Nor is this all ; for there is a number of petty tradesmen and other poor people, v* hose road is tiie same as ours, and who have asked permission to encamp near us, and travel under our protection ; so that yesterday, when I found it expedient, < ru account of the scarcity which prevails in these piovinces, to order an allowance of flour, by way of Sunday dinner, to every person in camp, the number of beads was returned one hundred and sixty- five. Wilh all these formidable numbers you must not, however, suppose that any exorbitant luxury reigns in my tent ; our fare is,' in fact, as homely as any two farmers iu England sii down to ; and if it be sometimes exuberant, the fault must be laid on a country where ue must take a whole sheep or kid, if we would have animal food at all, and where neither sheep nor kid will, when killed, remain eatable more than a day of two. The truth is, that where people carry every thing* with them, tent, bed, furniture, wine, beer, and crockery, for six months together, no small quantity of beasts of burden may well be supposed necessary ; and in coun- tries such as those which I have now been traversing, where every man is armed ; where every third or fourth man, a few years since, was a thief by profession ; and where, in spite of English influence and supremacy, the fWt'sts, mountains, and multitude of petty sovereignties, afford all possible scope for the practical application of Wordsworth's 4 good old rule, 1— you may believe me, that it is neither pomp nor cowardice which has thus fenced your friend in with spears, shields, and bayonets.'* In the course of this arduous pilgrimage from Calcutta to Bombay, he found occasions to preach upwards of fifty times; and the sermon delivered on one of those occasions, at the consecration of a church near Benares, was printed at the request of the Europeans who heard it ; and, though bearing marks of having been written in haste, fully justifies their discernment in having made that request, The following passage has much of the peculiar manner ofthe author of Palestine : 44 if the Israelites were endowed, beyond the nations of mankind, with wise and righteous laws, with a fertil and almost impregnable territory, with a race of valian anil victorious kings, aud a God who ( vvhiie they kept his ways) was a wall of fire against their enemies round ! about tiie » n ; if the kings of the wilderness did them homage, and the lion- banner of David and Solomon was reflected at once from the Mediterranean and th Euphrates— it was, that fhe way of the Lord might he made known bv their means upon earth, arid that the saving heahh ofthe Messiah might become conspicuous to all nations. 4* My brethren, it has pleased the Almighty that the nation to which we ourselves belong is a great, valiant, and an understanding- nation; it has pleased Him to givp us an empire in which the sun never sets a commerce by which the remotest nations of the earl are become our allies, our tributaries, I had almost said our neighbours; and by means ( when regarded human means, and distinct from his mysterious prov deuce) so inadequate, as to excite our alarm as well wonder, the sovereignty over these wide'and populous heathen lands. But is it for our sakes that he has given , us these good gifts, and wrought these great marvels in our favour ? Are we not rather set upon high in the earth, that we inav show forth the light by which we are guided, and be the honoured instruments of diffusing those blessings w hieh we ourselves enjoy, through every land where our will is taw, through every tribe where our wisdom is held in reverence, and in every distant isle which our winged vessels visit ? If we value, then, ( as who does not value?} our renown among mankind ; if we exult ( as who ean help exult- ing?) in the privileges which the providence of God has conferred on the R. itish nation; if we are thankful ( and God forbid we should he. otherwise) for the means of usefulness in our power; and if we love ( aswhodoes not love?) our native land, its greatness and prosperity, — let us see that we, each of us in our station, are pro- moting to the hest of our power, by example, by exertion, by liberality, by the practice of Christian justice and every virtue, the extension of God's truth among men, aud the honour of that holy name whereby we aie called. There have been realms before us as famous as our own, and ( in relation to the then extent and riches of the civilized world) as powerful and as wealthy, of which the traveller sees nothing now hut ruins in the midst of a wilderness, or where mariners only find a rock for fishers to spread their nets. Nineveh once reigned over tfie East ; but where is Nineveh now? Tyre had once the commerce of the world; but what is become of Tyre? But if the repentance of Nineveh had been persevered in, her towers would have stood to this day. Had the daugh- ter of Tyre brought her gifts to the Temple of God, she would have continued a Queen for ever." In a letter to oue of his friends, written at the close of his extensive journey, the Bishop expresses his satisfaction that he had never, in the whole course of it, turned either to the right hand or to the left for the sake of gratifying curiosity— that he had travelled iu his episcopal capacity, and allowed no other objects to interfere with those which were pressed on him by the character of his functions. But no accomplished Englishman, far less a deeply read and deeply think- ing scholar like Heber, would traverse these regions without having his attention called to many objects, which may not, at first si$> ht, appear to have been, in his case, professional. The whole state and condition, however, of the Indian population, il was, in fact, most strictly and sacredly his duty to study ; and how successfully he carried his talents to this object we hove in our power to shew, by some passages from his MS. correspondence. The letter from which we are about to quote was written in March, 1825; and addressed to one of his oldest and most intimate fiiends,— a gentleman, not of his own profession, but engaged in the business of the world, and the duties of a high public station.— We offer no apology for citing largely from such a letter, written upon such a subject, and are sure our readers wili require none. It is not often that the English public are permitted to listen to such a witness as Bishop Heber, upon the concerns of their Indian fellow- subjects. " Though the greater part of the Company's pro- vinces ( except Kumaoon) are by no means abundant in objects of natural beauty or curiosity, the prospect, offering little else than an uniform plain of slovenly cultivation, yet, in the character and manners of the people, there is much which may be studied with interest and amusement; and in the yet remaining specimen of oriental luxury and pomp at Lucknow ; iu the decayed, but most striking and romantic, magni- ficence of Delhi; and in the Taj- Mahal of Agra, ( doubtless one of the most beautiful buildings in the The people, who are admirably described ( though I i think in too favourable colours) by Malcolm, in his Central India, are certainly a lively, animated, and warlike race of men, though, chiefly from their wretched government, and partly from their still more wretched religion, there is hardly any vice, either of slaves or robbers, to which they'do not seem addicted. Yet such a state of society is at least curi- ous, aud resembles more the picture of Abyssinia as given by Bruce, than that of any other country which 1 hate seen or read of; while here too there are many wild and woody scenes, which, though they want the glorious glaciers and peaks ofthe Himmalaya, do not fall short in natural beauty of some of the loveliest glens which we went througn ten years ago in North Wales ; and some very remarkable ruins, which, though grfatly inferior as works of art to the Mussul- man remains in llindoostan Proper, are yet more curi- ous than them, as being more different from auy thing which an European is accustomed to see or read of. change,) for a fortnight before the arrival of any intel- ligence by the usual channels. 44 With subjects thus inquisitive, and with such opportunities of information, it is apparent how little sense there is in the doctrine that we must keep the nations ofHindoostau in ignorance if we would continue to govern them. The fact is, that they know enough already to do us a great deal of mischief, if they should' find it their interest to make the trial. They are in e fair way by degrees, to acquire still more knowledge for themselves; and the question is, whether it is noi the part of wisdom, as well as duty, to superintend au< f promote their education w hile it is yet in our power,- and supply Jhem with such knowledge as will be at once most harmless to ourselves and most useful to1 them. • In this work the most important, part is to give them a better religion. Knowing how strongly I feel on this subject, you will not be surprised at my placing it foremost." " One fact, indeed, during this journey, has been impressed on my mind very forcibly— that the charac- ter and situation ofthe natives of these great countries are exceedingly little known, and in many instances grossly misrepresented, not only by the English pub- lic in general, but by a great proportion of those also who, though they have been in India, have taken their views of its population, manners, and productions from Calcutta, or at most from Bengal. I had always heard, and fully believed till I came to India, that it was a grievous crime, in the opinion of the Brahmins, to eat the flesh or shed the blood of any living creature whatever. I have now myself seen Brahmins of the highest caste cut off the heads of goats as a sacrifice to Doorga; and 1 know, from the testimony of Brahmins, as well as from other sources, that not only hecatombs of animals are often offered in this manner as a most meritorious act, ( a Rajah, about twenty- five years bacV, offered sixty thousand in one fortnight,) but that any person, Brahmins not excepted, eats readily ofthe flesh of whatever has beeit offered up to one of their divinities; while amongst ail the other castes, mutton, pork, fish, venison,— any thing but beef and fowls,—- are consumed as readily as in Europe. Again, I had heard all my life of the gentle and timid Hindoos, patient under injuries, servile to their superi- ors, & c. Now, this is doubtless, to a certain extent, true of the Bengalese, ( who, by the way, are never reckoned among the nations of Hindoostan by those who speak the language of that country,) and there are a great many people in Calcutta who main- tain, that all the natives of India are alike. But even m Bengal, gentle as the exterior manners of the people are, there are large districts close to Calcutta, where the work of carding, burning, ravishing, mur- ler, and robbery, g- oes on as systematically, and in arly the same manner, as in the worst part of eland ; and on entering llindoostan, properly so Sled, which in the estimate of the natives, reaches om the Iiajamahal hills to Agra, and from the mountains of Kumaoon to Btmdelcund, I . was struck " nd surprised to find a people equal in stature and rength to the average of European nations, despising ee and rice- eaters, feeeding' on wheat and barley bread, exhibiting in their appearance, conversation, and habits of life, a grave, a proud, and decidedly a martial character, accustomed universally to the use of arms and athletic exercises from their cradles, and ferring, very greatly, military service to any other means of livelihood. This part of their character, but a ruder and wilder form, and debased by muc. h alloy of treachery and violence, is conspicuous in the mailer and less good- looking inhabitants of Raja- pootamand Malwah ; while the mountains and woods, wherever they occur, show specimens of a race entirely different from all these, and in a state of society scarcely elevated above the savages of New Holland, or New Zealand; and the inhabitants, I am assured, ofthe Deccan, and of the Presidencies of Madras and Bombay, were as different from those which 1 have seen, aud from each other, as the French and Portu- guese from the Greeks, Germans, or Poles. So idle is t to ascribe uniformity of character to the inhabitants of a country so extensive, and subdivided by so many almost impassable tracts of mountain and jungle, and so little do the majority of those whom I have seen deserve the gentle and imbecite character often as ned to them. 4 I met, not long since, with a speech % a leading member of the Scotch General Assembly declaring his 4conviction that the truths of Christianity could not be received by men in so rude a state as the East Indians, and that it was necessary to give them first a relish for the habits and comforts of civilized life before they could embrace the truth's ofthe Gospel.' The same slang ( for. it is nothing more) I have seen repeated in divers patfiphlets, and even heard il in conversation in Calcutta. Yet, though it is certainly true that the lower classes of Indians are miserably poor, and that there are many extensive districts where, both among low and high, the laws are very little obeyed, and there is a great deal of robbery, oppression, and even ferocity, I know no part, of the population, except the mountain tribes already men- tioned, who can with any propriety of language be called uncivilized. Of the unpropiiious circumstances which 3 have mentioned, the former arises from population continually pressing on the utmost limits of Subsistence, and which is thus kept up, not by any dislike or indifference to a better diet, or more ample clothing, or more numerous ornaments, than now fall to the peasant's share, ( for, on the contrary, if he has fhe means, he is fonder of external show and a respect- kin many nations perstition, which Christianity only is likely to remove, which makes a parent regard it as unpropitious to allow his son to remain unmarried, and w hich couples together children of twelve or fourteen years . of age. The second has its origin in the long- continued misfortunes aud intestine wars of India, which are as yet too recent ( even where their causes have ceased to exist) for the agitation which they have occasioned lo have entirely snnk into a calm. But to say that the Hindoos or Mussulmans are deficient in any essential feature of a civilized people, is an assertion which I can scarcely suppose lo be made by any who have lived with them. Their manners are at least as pleasing- and courteous as those in the corresponding stations of life among ourselves; their houses are larger, and, according to their wants and climate, to the full as convenient as ours; their architecture is at least as elegant; an « ! though the worthy Scotch divine may, doubtless, wish their la- bourers to be clad in hoddin grey, and their gentry and merchants to wear powder and mottled stockings, f* ke worthy Mr. and the other eld? rs of the kirk- session, I really do not think that they would gain We learn from the French Papers, that 18 persons were killed, and 12 wounded, by the explosion of a, steam vessel, at Lyons, on Sunday, the 4th instant. We are requested to state that the Roman Catholic inhabitants of a parish in Leifrirn, bordering on the county of Sligo, have sent forward an application to- the bishop of their diocese, requesting that a priest may be sent to their chapel who will read and preach the Holy Scriptures to them. This, then, is one of the many effects arising from an improvement in the education of the lower orders of our countrymen, and from the public discussion of points at issue between the Church of England and the Popish Hierarchy.— Sligo Journal. A Clergyman of Norfolk has been perfectly c\ ired of the rheumatism, by sewing fresh laurel leaves every morning on a piece of cloth ( in order to keep the laurel leaves together), aud by wearing them round the part affected. In the course of last week, Mr. Piatt, of Cateaton- street, who, ten years ago, was wounded by young" Watson, in the attack on the shop of Mr. Beckwith, the gunsmith, of Skinner- street, had the ball ex- tracted by Sir Astlcy Cooper. The ball had entered the hip, and all efforts to get at it, immediately after the wound was inflicted, proved ineffectual. Since that time, the ball had sunk, several inches, and it was taken out from the inside of the thigh. Mr. Piatt is now doing very well. At Liverpool the extraordinary and stupendous undertaking of excavating a wide and lofty tunnel, from the shore ofthe Mersey, under the town, to the other side of Edgehill, for the passage of carriages to the line of the open railway intended to communi- cate with" Manchester, is proceeding with as much celerity as the nature of ihe work will permit. BRISTOL MARCH LEATHER FAIR.— The quantity of goods exhibited for sale was less than usual, arising in a great degree from the severe frost during the month of February, which greatly impeded the business of the tan- yard.— Some small advance took place on Dressing Hides, good Sole Leather, and Calf Skins; a large portion of which found buyers.

" Since then, I have been in countries of a wilder character, comparatively seldom trodden by Europe- aus, exeoipt during- ihe greater part of their history from the Mussulman yoke, and retaining accordingly a great deal of the simplicity of early Hindoo manners, without much of that solemn and pompous uniformity which the conquests of the House of Timur seem To have impressed on all classes of their subjects. Yet here there is much which is interesting and curious. either in cleanliness, elegance, or comfort, by exchang- ing a white cotton robe for the completest suit of dittos. 44 Nor is it true, that, in the mechanic arts, they are inferior to the general run of European nations. Where they fall short of us, ( which is chiefly in agri- cultural implements and the . mechanics of common life,) they are not, so far as I have understood of Italy and ( he South of France, surpassed in any great degree by the people of those countries. Their goldsmiths and weavers produce as beautiful fabrics as our own, and it is so far from true, that they are obstinately wedded to their old patterns, that Ihey show an anxiety to imitate our models, and do imitate them very suc- cessfully. The ships built by native artists at Bombay are notoriously as good as any w hich sail from London or Liverpool. The carriages and gigs which they sup- ply at Calcutta are as handsome, though not so durable, as those of Long Acre. In the little town of Monghyr, thiee hundred miles front Calcutta, I had pistols, double- barrelled guns, and different pieces of cabinet- work brought down to my boat for sale, which in out- ward form, ( for I know no further,,) nobody hut perhaps Mr. could detect to be of Hindoo origin? and at Delhi, in the shop ofa wealthy native jeweller, I found brooches, ear- rings, snuff- boxes, Sic. of the latest models, ( so far as I am a judge,) and ornamented witli French devices, and mottos. 44 The fact is, that there is a degree of intercourse maintained between this country and Europe, and a degree of information existing among the people as to what passes there, which, considering how few of them speak or read English, implies olher channels of com- munication besides those which we supply, and respect- ing which I have been able as yet to obtain very little information. 44 Among the presents sent last year to the supreme government by the little state of Ladeh, in Chinese Tartary, some large sheets of. gilt leather, stamped with the Russian eagle, were the most conspicuous. A tra- veller, who calls himself a Transylvanian, but who is shrewdly suspected of being a Russian spy, was, when I was in Kumaoon, arrested by the commandant of one of our fortresses among the Himmalaya mountains; and, after all our pains fo exclude foreigners from the service of the native princes, two Chevaliers of the Legion of Honour were found, about twelve months ago, and are still employed in, casting cannon and drilling soldiers for the Seik Raja, Rungeet Singh. This, you will say, is no more than we should be pre- pared to expect ; but you, probably, would not sup- pose, ( what I believe is little, if at all, known in Russia itself,) that there is an ancient and still frequented place of Hindoo pilgrimage not many miles from Mos- cow or that the Secretary of the Calcutta Bible Society received, ten months ago, an application ( hy whom translated I do not know, but. in very tolerable English,) from some priests on the shore of the Caspian sea, requesting a grant of Armenian bibles. After this you will he the less surprised to learn that the leading events of the late wars in Europe ( particularly Boua- parte1 ® victories) were often known, or at least ru- moured, among the native merchants of Calcutta, before government received any accounts from England; or that the suicide of an English minister ( with the mistake, indeed, of its being Lord Liverpool instead of the Marquis of Londonderry) had become a topic Of conversation in the 4 Burra Bazaar,' ( the native ex- BANKRUPTS, MARCH 9.— Edmonds Gray Hopkins, Fenchurch- street, indigo- broker.-~ Thos, Benj.
