FACT9 SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES. fS'CW Darn, 2Wcn-/<,- v? t?, /< ror<- Deir^, 26th May, 1826. GENTLEMEN, Should be ungrateful were I not to come forward and thank you for the almost miraculous Cure your Antiscorbutic Drops have performed upon me. 1 had been afflicted for the last seventeen Years with a dry Scurvy, that completely covered my whole Body with Scales, attended with great Heat and ex- treme Pain. The Scales multiplied to such a Degree that at certain Times I was obliged to use Grease or Oil before I could move my Joints; and the Bed on which I lay was completely covered wilh the Scurf off my Body. Having tried all Antiscorbutic Medicines and Ointments, as well as warm and cold Baths at all the Places of Note in the Neighbourhood, without affording the least Relief, I had given up all Hopes of being cured, till seeing a Letter in the Bolton Express of a similar Case to my own being cured by you. I was induced to try your valuable Medicine, which I am happy to say gave me the greatest Relief, and before I had taken three of your 4s. 6d. Bottles, 1 experienced a complete Cure, and am now as free from Blotch or Scale as ever I was in my life, and enjoy perfect Health. As the Publication of the Letter in the Bolton Express was the Means of my applying to you, I trust you will allow this Case of mine to go before the Public Hopes that it may reach the Hands of the afflicted,, and render them the same Comfort I now experience. You, therefore, are at Liberty to make what Use you please of this Letter ; aiid 1 shall feel proud in answering any Enquiries, either personally or otherwise. 1 am, Gentlemen, with the greatest Regard, your obedient Servant, THOMAS HUTCHINSON.

THE A D M I N IST II AT 10 RT.. Lord FARNHAM pret- euted a petition against any further cnucessiors to. the Roman Catholics, from pertain of the Proleslant inhabitants of the county ot Armagh. The noble lord stated that the petition Was signed by 20,8<> 0 persons. Lord MAN VERS r- ose. to state the motives whieh had induced him to refuse his confidence, to tire present Administration. Whatever were the causes that had brought the condition'- ' about, that coalition was evi- dently founded . upon the basis of Catholic Emancipa- tion, which vital change in the Constitution was* ihe principal,, if not the only, link that connected it together. With this- impression on his wind, com- bined witlrfbe circumstance of " ft is having invariably, for a pe'rio*? of' twenty five years, opposed that qjles. tlon with bis vote, if tmt with his voice, he trusted tlut'lie should ivot be'accused of any factious motives, ff he said openly and decidedly, that he conld not afford' hi* Kcv^ jVact. . tVViW' ovrv birrs of I be' C row II Ln. rd DP. DCNSTAN VI IEK shortly expressed his in- te- iflion of support1:!^ the new Administration, The'Earl of ABKRITE!?:* said',, no coalition, irr'the prbper sense" of - t. be word, hid taken place with the new Administrations » it might be called. an accession ' or adhesion-; but coalition if' was r.' otV He': attached hiss importance to the Catholic Quest roil th; vit to the. li'iore vital circumstance, that p. n. blic c ha r. ac re rs should b. c fair, upright, and without blemish ; and he,• there- . fore, fell it his' dnty to sfaie, that he'could not give to fhe Aduiiuistratioii, as*- it was' at present foViVlSxl, his- Confidence or support. The Earl of ABJNGDOS said, he frd'd all his life been n supporter of regular Governments, and had pos- sessed feelings of loyalty and attachment to th* Con- stitution in Church and State,- as by - iaw established ; and believing that to such principles th'e country owed its greatness, its peace, ami its prosperity, lie could not support the Government as at present formed, ami of whose principles he could never approve. ( Lord floL/. AcfD stated, that lie had- reCentfychan'ged, fiot s'f) much bis company as his * eat ; he. bad never- theless peelr charged by' the Ex- Si misters- with ili « * ob. sistencv, which he defied. On that poirit his'eatfC and their own we/ e . nearly- similar ;., forr if they claimed the merit of- oppo- sing a Government with which they found fault, surely bo- had an equal claim to that merit Tu supporting, a Government which approached most nearly to the principles that he bad always advocated. - In occupying-; his; present seat, he by no means pledjg,., ed himself to support the Government in all casrs ; for there were certainly s? ome subjects in whi'ch he differed from the Head of the Administration — one of them was Parliamentary Reform ; yet he knew no right which any body possessed to tell him that, because he differed from the Right Hon. Gentleman oh that subject, he hud uo right to support him on any other.'. He should support Administration rn all those measures in which they mutually concurred, but not i » i those in which they did not agree. " For tire last three years ( said the Noble Baron) there has not been one division in tho House on which 1 have voted without having the Concurrence of the Noble Earl at the bead of the Council ; and 1 think 1 may add, that, with the exception of divisions upon the. Catholic Question, there have been only two within tli^ t time iu which 1 have been opposed to Lord Liverpool him- self. I think that I am justified in supporting the Government, because I agree with them in some things, although there are. circumstances which I Could wish. t. o be otherwise. I will give the Noble Lords opposite all the advantage which they think they can obtain from this declaration. I speak open- ly, nod I suy again, that there are circumstances in the present Administration which I could wish to be otherwise. 1 think this will generally be found to be tbe case in human affairs. 1 have changed my seat for. the purpose of resisting and contending against those measures which Noble. Lords have so long • supported, a- nd in doing so 1 do not think lhat 1 am liable to the least charge of political inconsistency The Earl' of WINCHII. SEA was desirous of asking, What ihe House could possibly think of the political state of the Administration ? It was not on the mere question of Ronian Catholic Emancipation — although on that he entertained strong opinions— that he op- posed the present Government. There were other great political questions, which, in his opinion, had equal importance. The Noble Lord ( Holland) bad uai'd, that this Administration was not formed upon the firineiple of Lord Liverpool. He ( Lord W.) thanked lim for that open and manly avowal. He had no per- sonal hostility to the Right Hon. Gentleman who was the present head of Mis Majesty's Government, but political hostility to him he had, and, as a British statesman, it. was his duly, to declare it. He did not thin k the character of that individual stood as high and as unblemished as tlmit of a British Minister ought lo srtand, and that lie was not, therefore, entitled to the Confidence of their Lordships or of Parliament. He deprecated the efforts made to carry the Catholic Question ; he thought the sense of the country was decidedly opposed to it ; and so persuaded of its mis chieVous tendency did he feel, that, to the latest hour of his Life, he would raise his humble voice against it. On the subject of the present Administration, he would ray, that there never was a time when Parliament was more imperatively called on to make an effort for the removal of public men, on whose political character they could have no reliance. Lord F. LF. ENBOROUGH remarked that bin Noble Friend ( Lord Holland) had said, he differed from the seceding Members of the Cabinet on almost every question brought before Parliament, yet that lie fre- quently voted with the Government of which they formed a part There was here an obvious ineQu. nistency, which it would require- a 11 his Noble Friend's ingenuity to reconcile. Some Noble Lords say that they support the present Government because it is founded on/ the principle of Lord Liverpool's, and others because it is not. Really, under such circum- stances, he thought the House and the country had a riyht to some statement fiom the Noble . Viscount op- posite— some clear and intelligible statement, plain to the capacity of all--- of what principle fhe Government vested ob. His Noble Friend had stated that, in giving Iiis support to the present Government, he bad not made any change of principle. This could scarcely be, unless he had received some security for Carrying into effect the measures to which, as a publ- ic man, he Ktood pledged. Did he expect to find it in the " Mint ?" Were the Woods and Forests'* a security ? Did he see any of his Noble Friends placed io high and efficient situations ? In fact, had any one of those w ho had passed from that side of the House been placed iu a situation that gave any security for carrying those measures which that Noble Lord and his friends had ull their life been advocating? They possessed no necurity of that nature, and still less did they possess it in the political character and past conduct of the Right Hon. Gentleman lately placed at the head of His Majesty's Government. It was said of that Right Hon, Gentleman, and he knew not how such eontVuet could be reconciled with his oath as a Pri vy Counsellor, that he bad ad vised hi* Majesty to form a Government on principles exclusively Protestant. Was it not also 1he fact, that that Right Hon. Gent, hud expressed his wnxiety to retain in office every one of those among st his bite colleagues who bad beeu niost ho » ( i4e to { aiholic claims? I/ id those ho circumstances promise lhat sincerity on w hich political- men could rel. y ? He could not but observe, that every circumstance connected . with the formation of the present Government bore rather a suspicious character. What was called an intimation had been received by the Right Hon. Gent. « t the head of His Majesty's Government, of the readi- ness with which certain individuals would join if, if that Riirht Hon. Gentleman was to lie placed nt its head. Thtvt intimation, it would appear, had been made in private. It should not have been so made—- it should have been made openly, and in Parliament, Tie proceeded to. express his regret at the changes which bad lately taken place, and hesitated not ro de- clare his fixed determination of seizing every oppor- tunity of holding up to public indignation the unnatural and unprincipled coalition tliat had been formed. Viscount. GODHRICH spoke with milch earnestness on tlie injustice of these separate, inconvenient, and unsatisfactory discussions, to produce an impression ou tl. e public mind, if Ministers were to be lo/ d that they did not deserve the confidence ofthe country, for; God's sake let a motion be brought before the House for thai, purpose; he sought, for nothing else. He declared that it was1 impossible for those who were engaged in tire service of his Majesty to do justice to the duties they had undertaken, if they wele to be thus daily attacked. He com Id not he indifferent to the language with which he and bis friends had been for « pnie time assailed. It was impossible to remain alto ' gefher insensible to the violence of that language. I) id tbe I^ oble Lord imagine lhat jfriniitcrs were ice or stones ? If it were the opinion of Noble Lords in tliat House, and of iTouoifrable Gentleme/ i elsTnvbete, that lie, and those with whom he had the honour of acting, had forfeited the confidence of Parliament and the country, in the name of God, let their Lordships definitively pronounce an opinion to thai effect,- and let the present Ministry be sent about their business. The Noble Lord had inquired whether, in the form- ation of the present Government, there had been any stipulation ~ either - in favour of or contrary to the Cathblic Claims? For himself, as well as for Iris Colleagues, he could assure their Lordships that he ; had never heard of such stipulation either the one way or the other. He had spent some'time in Parliament and he must say that, " during his political experience, he had never heard made> against'any Administration, a charge more false and groundless than that which their Lordships had recently heard. For himself he could only say, that he appealed to the tenor of his whole life, as the best refutation of such a calumny ; and he was totally at a loss to understand how Noble Lords could possibly justify to themselves a system of hostility, founded upon idle aud groundless rumoifr. lie would not touch upon the Catholic Question, as it involved too much discussion : he was still attached to that measure, but it was not an attachment which would desire to see the question carried by main force. The Marquis of LANSDOWNR was anxious to give to their Lordships every explanation which his political Conduct appeared to require, when a fair and fitting opportunity was offered, hut lie declared, that no con- sideration— however anxiously he might feel upon the subject— could induce him to be accessary to these irregular, unfair, and, he would add, ungenerous discussions. He trusted to prove to their Lordships, that' the present Government had been brought toge- ther under feelings as honourable as those wh- ich influenced tfie formation ofanv Ministry mentioned iu any period of our history, He looked with the most unmixed confidence toa removal, when a fair oppor- tunity offered, of every shadow of blame or prejudice with which Iiis conduct had been assailed.

It has been the wishvof the House that his Lordship should face his' acciiSers here w hen they chose to come for- ward, arid he had now come over. It was fitting that ifiie whole of the matter should- be laid before the House iii some shape or oilier,' that the question might be at length brought to a decision, and finally set at rest. For that purpose lie moved, that a variety of papers, including Reports of Commissioners, be laid before the House.— M r. M ARF. RLY, on behalf of Sir R. Doukin, seconded the motion; and after a variety of remarks from several Members, it was agreed to. Mr. C. GRANT moved certain Resolutions for making better provision. for striking the averages of corn, and for other objects incidental , to the importation of Foreign Grain. Leave, . was granted to bring in the Bill, after which the House adjourned. HOUSE OF LORDS- FRIDAY. CORN RAWS1, The Corn JU- WS Amendment Bill was read a second time, but in consequence of the absence of the Earl of Lauderdale, from indisposition, the principle of the measure was not discussed. The debate is to take place on the motion for proceeding into committee on the Bill, which is fixred for Friday next. Lord ELT. PNBOROUGH again called the attention of the Hou.? e to the situation of our troops in Portugal, and endeavoured to obtain information as to our rela- tions with that Government, and fhe intention of Ministers regarding the British force there.— Viscount DUDLEY and WARD, in reply, staled that the same reasons which operated against giv- iiig information when before asked, still prevented his entering into any detail. The Government, his Lordship added, were acting on their own responsibility, and to the best of their judgment for the good of their- country ; and he hoped , that the House would not indulge in conjectures, but wait until the- subject could be fully and fairlv brought before them. HOUSE' OF COMMONS- FRIDAY. Mr. BEAUMONT withdrew alfoo- eiher his motion respecting tho fitato of tJie Administration, the recent appointments having rendered it unnecessary. The House afterwards went into a. Coinmittee on the Penryn Bribery Bill, and several witnesses underwent long examinations.. Among the most conspicuous were John Stan bury, previously committed to New- gate for refusing to" appear before the Election Com- mittee, and John Cearn', who prevaricated to that degree that, at the conclusion of his examination, lie also was committed to the same prison. The investi- gation extended toa late hour, nnd is to be resumed on Mo. nday se'nnight. The proposition with which the Bill concludes is, that the borough be thrown open to the adjoining hundreds of Kerrier and Pen- wit'll, the population of which ia considerable and the freeholders numerous. Mr, HUSKTRSON, in presenting a petition from Liverpool, for the repeal of the Test and Corporation Acts, stated himself to be favourable to a repeal of the laws against the Dissenters, though he conceived their case to be less pressing than that ofthe Catholics, whose disabilities more directly and practically ( t affected their happiness and personal prosperity." In reply to a question from Sir E. K NATCH Burr*, Mr. HUSKTSSON stated that it was not in tbe contem- plation of Government to impose any tax on the importation of foreign wool. the Bishop of LONDON stated, that the account which had appeared in the papers, of His Majesty having communicated to the Archbishop of Canter- bury and the Bishop of London, his decided inten- tion to support the Protestant Ascendancy against what is called Catholic Emancipation, aud of his taking the same view of the Coronation Oath as his Royal Father had done, was quite correct.— This important declaration will be hailed with joy by every true Protestant. In the House of Commons, this evening, SirT. LETIIERIDGE endeavoured to obtain from Mr. Canning an answer to the question, whether that Right Hon. Gentleman communicated to his late colleagues; before their secession from office, the overtures he had received from Mr. Brougham, Mr. Tierney, and others?— But the desired in- formation was not conceded. Yesterday, the Duke and Duchess of Clarence and the Princess Augusta attended Divine Service at the Chapel Royal, and heard an excellent [ Ser- mon preached by the Rev. Sir Edward Ivynaston, Bart, from the 7tli chapter of St. Matthew's Gos- pel, and the 13th verse. The Church Service was read by the Rev. Mr. Cannon? and the Communion Service by the Sub- Dean. The Anthem was,. " I was glad" ( Pnrcell), which was sung by Messrs, Salmon, Vaughan, and J. B. Sale. The Chapel was very numerously attended by the nobility. One of the French Papers states that the English and Portuguese troops on the one hand, and the Spanish on the other, had retired simultaneously to the distance of eight leagues from the frontier. If this be true, all danger of war between Spain and Portugal must be nearly at an end. ^ it appears that Government attaches considera- ble importance to the symptoms of insurrection, which, according to the last advices from Canada, had displayed themselves in various parts of that province. Terms may be known by Application as above, after the 24th of June. CLJE SALOPIAN ' JOURNAL. WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 1827. TJPTOIU", CHESTER.

Thus the whole of ( he vacancies are filled tip, and the Cabinet consists of fifteen Members. The course of proceeding proposed by u A PROTEST- ANT LAYMAN," would not be acceptable to our readers; nor could we, in courtesy, insert his letter without tbe assur- ance that he and the gentleman to whom he refers had first come to a private understanding on the subject.

On the 6th inst. at Garston, aged 87 years, Mrs. Martha Hughes, late of this town. Ou the 9th ult. Thomas Latham, Esq. of Pipe Gate, in this county, Adjutant of the West Shropshire Loc, al Militia during the period of 15 years.— He had served iuthe2d Battalion of the 23d Regiment of Foot, and had been in 12 engagements, having distinguished himself for his bravery in the field, both iu Egypt and in Holland. On the 1.2th inst. aged 15, Charles, son of Mr. Povah, Red Lion, t* olborn, after a lingering illness of' more than two years.— Rarely does it fall to the lot of parents to have witnessed so gradual a decay of nature, without a complaint escaping tbe youthful lip, In hearth, all che'arfulness, with innocent mirth during a long protracted illness, exhibiting the meek- ness of a lamb, full of hope, until the Sabbath pre- ceding his death ;— when the inward Monitor apprized him his close was near, the innocent lips, with eyes fixed on his Father, replied, Father, the sooner noio ihe better ;— resigning his last breath on the Saturday morning following, to Him that gave it, without a struggle. On the 16th inst. at Chester, in his 53d year, Mr. Edward Griffiths, son ofthe late Mr. Samuel Griffiths, of Preston- upon- the- P> oatS| near this town. On the 18th inst. in the 56th year of his age, Mr. Thomas Davies, of Bing's Heath, near Astley, in this county, greatly esteemed and lamented by a numerous circle of relations. On Thursday, after a long and painful illness, aged 31, John, second son of Mr. Timothy Oakley, of Pride Hill, in ihis town. With a proper attention to the interests of our Protestant Constitution, and in especial reference to the present state of affairs, the Burgesses of the Franchise of Wenlock, in this county, have resol ved to petition both Houses of Parliament against granting Political Power to the Roman Catholics.— A copy of the Petition will be found among- the advertisements in another column. The South Shropshire Regiment of Yeomanry Cavalry will assemble at Ludlow, on Friday next, for six days'exercise. CURE FOR THE TOOTH- ACHE.— At a recent meeting of the London Medical Society, Dr. Blake, stated that the extraction or excision of teeth was unnecessary. He was enabled, he said, to cure the most desperate cases of tooth- ache ( unless the disease was connected with rheumatism) by the application of the following- remedy to tfie diseased tooth:—" Alum, reduced to an impalpable powder, two drachms; nitrous spirit of sether, seven drachms; mix, and apply them to the tooth." Mr. Fay, the American dentist, who was present, admitted, that in ninety- five cases out of a hundred, where surgeons and dentists are applied to for'the purpose of extraction, relief might be obtained without that, or even excision. . Committed to our County Gaol, William Bovvers, charged with stealing a- hat, the property of John Oliver Hopkins; and Thomas Lewis, charged with stealing a pocket- book, one handkerchief, one pro- missory note for the payment of £ 5, five promissory The Paris papers to Wednesday are entirely silent as to the present state of Portugal. The Etoile contains a letter from Trieste, stating that si^ ce the arrival of Lord Cochrane in Greece, the Porte seemed unfavourably disposed towards the English Ambassador. The accounts direct from Lisbon are important. The Princess Regent was believed to be at the point of death. Every precaution had beeu taken to secure the tranquillity of the capital, in anticipa- tion of that event. The Right Honourable Robert Peel gave a grand dinner on Wednesday to a numerous party of Members of the House of Commons, at his residence in Privy- Gardens.— Among the guests were the Marquis of Blandford, the Marquis of Chaudos, the Ear! of Belfast, Lord Ashley, Lord John Hay, Sir E. Knatchbull, Bart. Sir C. Burrell, Bart. Sir J. Brydges, Sir J. Pellew, Bart. Sir R. W. Vaughan, Bart. Sir J. Owen, Bart. Sir A. Chichester, Bart. General Peachey, Mr. Duncombe, Mr. Gooch, Mr. Owen, Mr. Chichester, Mr. Bell, Mr. Fleming, Mr. Borrodaile, Mr. Macqueen, IVJr. Elphinstone, & c. NATION AL SCHOOLS.— At the dinner of the friends of the National Schools, on Wednesday se'nnight, after the examination of the children, and the usual toasts were drank, the Bishop of Chester came in, and, apologising for his lateness,. said, he had been compelled to attend his Parliamentary duties in the House of Lords. It became, he said, at this momentous period, ( produced by the late changes in the Administration,) the duty of every Peer to attend his duties in Parliament, and support fo the utmost of his ability the Established Church of the country. Perhaps at no former period of onr history ought the National Schools to be more strenuously supported than now. In them the Established Religion was inculcated into the minds of those who, perhaps, on a future occasion, might have a duty to i , • - ^ , , . perform in opposing every innovation on the Church "' e ,'!, ymC'" :> f £ 1 ^ e', f " s> of England.— Jtfcil'Mi> t(/ Paper, I'^ f-' u^ reigns, aud one guinea, the properly ot ° Gcoi gc t hoiuas, & IRTH.

At Dolgelly, Merionethshire, aged 75, Mr. David Richards, formerly of Gl'anymorfa, in the parish of Towyn, Merionethshire, generally known among the Bards and the admirers of Welsh Poetry, by the name of Duvydd lonnior, the celebrated author of Cywydd y Drindod, and various other Welsh poetical publications, all on religions subjects, to which his whole life was exclusively devoted, and which of course rendered, him a verv eccentric character. Pos- sessed of great powers of mind, cultivated and ma- tured by study, extensive reading, and classical learning, his numerous compositions, all stamped with originality, are justly, entitled to ' pre- eminence, and will be perused by the sober- minded part of his countrymen, in all ages, with heartfelt pleasure and unbounded admiration, so long as the Ancient British continues a living language. As to bis religious profession, he was a staunch devout Church of Eng- land man, but not illiberal towards any classes of Dissenters. He died in his sleep, on the night of the 11th or morning of- the 12th instant, without any previous indisposition, having retired to rest in his usual cheerfulness at a seasonable hour. A horrid murder was committed on Thursday se'nnight in Whitechapel, London, by a man named William Sheen, who, in a state of intoxication, in the absence of his wife, cut his child's head off, a boy just turned four months old, threw the body under the bed, and placed the head upon the table, where it was fouud by the mother upon entering the room. An inquest was held on the Saturday on the infant, and a verdict of wilful murder was recorded against Sheen, who was apprehended last week at Llan- badarn- vynydd, Radnorshire, and conveyed to Lon- don, where he has been committed for trial.

We call it. a sacrifice of personal inclinations, because li'lr. 1 ierney has so ofien expressed his aversion to place, unless accompanied by a total change ot system, that we are, in common courtesy, bound to believe his declarations sincere, lint we lire in a time of wonders no man can safely say what he may come to ; and thus it is, that the resolute and sworn reformer, who to. day lings closely, as above all treasures, his poverty aud his patriotism, may to- morrow he unfortunate enough to find himself luxuriating in the. sunshine ofa Court, and condemned to a place of £ 10,( Kit) a- year ! But if is a g reat instance of fortitude, w hen a man has spirits to sustain such : rn in expected reverse of fortune ; for what greater calamity can befal a true patriot, than to he doomed to tlie bitter penance of receiving a portion of those Ministerial loaves and fishes which lie has all his life been reproaching others for being so base us to accept ! How mortifying it must be to Mr. Tierne. v to reflect that his extensive plans of Reform are to he circumscribed within the limits ofa coin, and that he is to pay less attenlion for the future to the " glorious maxims of the Constitution," than to the motto round a erown- piece ! He once, we recollect, told the late Marquis of Londonderry, then. Lord Castlereagh, that he ( Lord C ) was determined to " stick by the system as long a3 he could muster in its support a corporal's guard and a bank token,'- alluding to a Government Carried on by a " standing arnlv and bribery.'' What a pity that Lord Castlereagh did not live to see the day when those two props of the system" were to have a new auxiliary, and that auxiliary Air. Tierney him- self!— But, as we hare said, tlie abhorred vt sweets of office" have been forced npou bim bv oue of those fatalities for which the wisest of men cannot account, when such things happen to hefal them. Mr. Banker-, the Member for Corfu Castle, is a gentleman who delights in taking, like 1Y1 r. Shandy, a « ' subtile nnd metaphysical" view of questions, nnd we should like to know what tie thiu. ks of this business. It was only so late as the Session of 1S21 tliat the Hon. Member expressed a suspicion that Mr. Tierney wished to get into place; and how did Mr. Tierney repel the un- generous suspicion? In the following words:—" If the Hon. Member thinks I have now any wish for office, he is much mistaken. Not that I want ambition— not that 1 have lost the disposition to serve my country, but because 1 feel that my rlaysa? e numbered, and that I have nol strength fnr the performance of ( my im- portant duty." Six additional years have, it appears, instead of adding to the infirmities of the Right Hon. Gentleman, produced quite a renovation. He has now strength enough to enable him lo perform the " im- portant duty" of superintending the manufacture of what Frederick of Prussia used to call the " sinews of war," and can even bear the burden nf receiving eight or ten thousand a- year of the public money 1— Morning Herahl. POLITICAL CONSISTENCY.— On the fith ofFebru- ary, 18- 21, Mr. Tierney declared, amid the cheers of the then Opposition ! lhat there were THREE con- ditions without which he would never consent to accept of office. First, that Catholic Emancipation should be granted ! Secondly, that the Sir Acts should be repealed!! And, lastly, that Parlia- mentary Reform ( which he declared to be " the object next bis heart") should be immediately car- ried info execution I ! ! The official of" Ministry of I table of fhe produce ofthe indirect taxes during the first five months of 1S27, with that of the same taxes during the corresponding periods in 1825 and 1826, from which it appears that there is a decrease of 5,997,000 francs, as compared with 1828 and of 2,563,000 francs, as compared with that of 1825, which was taken as the basis of the Budget of 1827. In the Court of King's Bench, on Saturday, Mr. TAUNTON obtained a rule to shew cause why criminal informations, in thenatnreof a Quo War- ranto, should nol issue against the present Mayor, two Aldermen, both the Sheriffs, and one. Common Councilman, tbey being ali bad Mayors, Justices, Sheriffs, and Common Councilmcn, since the election of Mr. George Harrison ( inclusive).— No cause will be shewu against this Rule, as it ia a proceeding- taken on behalf of the parties themselves; with a view to prevent the. adoption of that coarse by their opponents; and the ulterior object is to obtain a Mandamus for the election of new officers before October, ns no Mandamus will lie, or can be obtained, while persons actually continue to fill the corporate offices. Mr. Croker was on Tuesday elected for the University of Dublin. His opponents were, Mr. North the barrister, and Mr. Serjeant I. efroy. The polling took place amidst the greatest uproar and confusion; and at its termination the numbers were declared— for Mr. Croker, 39— Mr. North, 28 — Mr. Serjeant Lefroy, 22. We understand a petition to Parliament will shortly be presented from this city, in favour of the Salmon Fishery Hill. The decrease of Salmon in the Severn has long been a subject of lamentation, and there can- not be a doubt but it is principally owing to the incessant dragging the river with nets of improper dimensions and size of mesh, in Gloucestershire. We are persuaded the passing of the proposed law will ultimately be beneficial to the proprietors of the Salmon Fishery and th. e public; and vve are sorry to sec; one or two petitions against it from Perth and other places in Scotland.— Worcester Herald. NEWMARKET, MAY 16.— Three thousand guineas were offered yesterday for Colonel Wilson's Lamp- lighter, and refused. The Gold Cup, which was the subscription of 24 noblemen aud gentlemen of the Jockey Club, and which has been in the Grosve- nor family since 1780, when Pothos walked over for it, was challenged for last meeting by Mr. Wyndham ( the nomination being sealed up), and not accepted, the cup now becomes the property of Mr. Wyndham. It was originally subscribed for in 1763 —- The day's sport consisted of the following race, which is of the most extraordinary character, two horses making two dead heats: — Handicap Plate of £ 50, by subscription, being the third of three £ 50 plates, lor 3- year olds and upwards.

There was a rumour at New York, that Cuba would shortly be declared independent by the Governor, who had made himself very popular, and was paying the greatest attention to the finances. Smuggling had been carried on with the United States to a great extent; and be had in consequence issued some severe decrees.— The domestic news of the United States relates chiefly to the making of roads and canals, and surveying the coasts, by order ofthe lixecutive. The payment of the debt forms also an important feature. The sinking fund has worked off the debt till the year 1813; on the 1st of July, five millio'ns of the loan of that year are ordered fo be paid off; and " in 1835 ( says the New York papers) the United States will have no national debt."

THE THAMES TUMVF. L.— A divadful alarm was created ou Friday evening at Rotherhitlie, iu conse- quence of the water bursting into the. tuuurl IVoni above, while upwaidsofT2d workmen were ensagctl below. For sonic days past the earth through which the miners were boring was of such a description as to admit a leakage from the river of 400 or 500 gallons a minute, but as they we, re approaching- a more favourable soil, 1) 9 apprehensions of any danger or interruption were entertainerl until about six o'clock on Friday evening, when tho men engaged Ct the extremity of thsexcavation observed a leakage fo increase rapidly, and iu a few- moments afterwards a portion of the earth gave way and the water rushed down in a torrent. The workmen fled towards the shaft in the greatest terror, and uttering loud cries of alarm, while tbe water rushed after them wfth great rapidity. Thev- ascended the ladder five a!- a time, and succeeded ill, reaching the top in safety, all but one individual who was missing for a few minutes. He was soon, however, obsprv, ec! to be stru/ gling in the water i, 1 the shaft, where it had by this time risen to considerable height. Mr. Brunei, jun, immediately descended to his aid, and succeetfed in rescuing tiini from his perilons situation, at tiie ' moment that Ilia strength was almost exhausted. From . calculations' made by the engineer, from the progress of the water in the shaft, it is supposed that about a Cubical foot of the earth under the river must have fallen- into the tunnel, where it had been recentW excavated, and before the brick work had bee- i raised to support it. It is attributed to what miners call " a fault" in the soil— that is, the meeting of thfi two layers of earth, where the WafteV has always the least difficulty of insinuating- itself. The engineer does not state his apprehension of any considerable obstruction arising from this accident,- to' the pro- gress of the work. He expects to hSye ( He v/ iiter all pumped out in a week or two, afid tie then. able' to resume his operations. The greatest difficulty with which he will have to Contend will be, tho' dread which this alarm will have left in the minds of the workmen. As is generally the case on such occasions, the accounts which circulated in . thg neighbourhood were full of exaggeration. It is matter of congratulation, that when the lives of grl many individuals were suddenly placed in such imminent jeopardy, none were lost. Besides the; workmen, there wef- e two or three visitors in. the funnel at ( he time.— The grcatasi exertions have been made since the occurrence of the accident to stop the leak. During the whole night the men were employed in throwing clay info fhe river over the spot from whence the damage had arise'U. The' steam- engine has also been, ever since tbe accident, in full work, and up to the middle of Saturday the water had decreased from ten to twelve feet. Tha Board of Directors were sitting throughout that day, and from what has been stated, they appear sanguine in their expectations of not only overcoming tiie difficulty, but of ultimate success. The latest accounts from the spot state, that . Mr. Brunei airl Mr. Gravet had descended in a diving bell to the bed ofthe river, and their report is understood to be of the most favourable nature. Saturday, about the middle of the day, a dreadful explosion of a boiler at Mf. II. Stothert's lroii Foundry, Southgate- streat, took place : the upper standing neai- the furnace nt the, time of the explosion, but neither was severely hurt, except one man who received a bruise in tbe side by the falling of a stone, and was nearly being crushed to death by a tremendous piece of iron falling bv him. It was only a few minutes before the accident that Mr. Stothert had inspected the boiler, and 110 charge of neglect can be attributed to any person ;— at the time of the accident the pressure of steam was less than usual/ IRON BRIDGE AT PARIS.— From the inadequate, perhaps we should say unscientific, manner in which the ends of the chain bridge at Paris, were fastened, that structure has entirely giten way ; but us the scaffolding 011 which the road- way had been formed, was standing ti little below it, and immediately relieved the chains of a great portiotl of their load, little damage was done to any of the materials.

New Joint Stock Ranking Company in Bristol.— VVe should not have thought it worth while to notice the futile attempt made to establish such a concern in this city, had we not observed that paragraphs to the effect " the subscriptions are rapidly, filling up," are running through the provincial news papers in our neighbourhood. Advertisements announcing- such an intention have undoubtedly appeared, as well as for calling a public meeting to form thC establishment, and the meeting has been held accordingly; but with the exception of three Or foul* gentlemen who attended it out of curiosity, we can safely affirm, that such an establishm'ent has no! mej with the slightest appearance of encouragement from the Bristolians, at least the Agent who attended did not feci himself authorised to record the names of any individuals who patronized it, except of three!

CAUTION.— We caution the public against the im- positions of two fellows who are travelling the country with a printed paper, bearing the forged signatures of two Magistrates of Swansea, asserting that the American ship Minerva had been lost off that port, and only four persons saved, of which number the abot e impostors of course were part. They apply to respectable persons for relief, and one of them, who states his name to be Wilson, pro- duces a b6okcontaining the names of fhose 011 whom they have ( or pretend to have) levied contributions. They lately honoured a gentleman in this county with a call, and iu their " book" were the names of gentlemen in this vicinity as contributors, one of £ 3 and two of 20s. each; he was induced to relieve them, but fortunately afterwards wrote to a friend at Swansea, from whom he learned the whole to be a gross fabrication, ft is supposed these worthies are now in Shropshire,- aud we hope they shortly will receive fhe reward due to such impostors, whose practices tend to close the hand of charity against the claims of tire really distressed.— Hereford Journal.

Under these circumstances,- he came with his lady to London, and determining to study the law, enter- ed himself at the Middle Temple. He died poer, on the 11th of April, 1771, a few days after the birth of his sou George, and was interred in the new burial ground of St. IVJarylebone, where his tomb, with the following inscription, was placed by liis widow : " Thy virtue and my woe no words ran tell,.

His infant son, the subject of this memoir, was placed with a maternal uncle, a respectable wine- nierchant in Ihe city, who, discovering strong marks of genius, at a very early age, sent him to F. ton, where he speedily distinguished himself, and, in 178G, became one of the senior scholars. In 1788, on his removal from Eton, Mr. Canning was entered at Christ Church, Oxford, where he graduated. He there formed a social connexion with several young men of rank, among whom was Mr. Jenkiuson, now Lord Liverpool. Having ob- tained his bachelor's degree, he left the University, and entered himself of the Middle Temple, with intent to study Ihe law. At the same time he obtained admission to a debating society, which met iu Bond- street, and, by his practice there, acquired lhat ease and facility in public speaking which lie now so eminently possesses. EQUITABLE ADJUSTMENT. THE CANNING- FAMILY. Many of oor readers are not probably aware that fhe Prime Minister of England is the son of an actress— but such is the fact. From Mrs. Canning ( in which capacity she played at Drury- lane Theatre) his mother became Mrs. Reddish, and subsequently, married a Mr. Flunn, linen- draper at Plymouth. The following is a copy of the bill for jVlrs. Canning's last benefit at Drury lane Theatre : On TUESDAY, A Will. 26, 1774 ( bv particular desire), Fur the BENEFIT of MRS. CANNING, .

Canning, Great Queen- street, Lincoln's- inn fields, poors to he opened al 5 o'clock:, and begin nt 6 o'clock. If ceases, therefore, to be a matter of surprise that her son should huve turned out stick a capital actor. When George Canning was still a stripling at' . Eton, he was patronized by the accomplished Ducfcess of Devonshire, mother of the present Duke, and the embryo Statesman was a welcome and a frequent guest during the school vacations. Mr. Sheridan had a presentiment of his rising fortunes, and, strange as it may seem, recommended him to enlist under the banners of Mr. Pitt, to whom he was introduced by Lord Mornington ( now Marquis Wellesley). There are many caustic epigrams in existence, written by Mr. Canning, against the Pitt Administration and Mr. Pitt himself. His first introduction to the Duchess of Devonshire was- by Sheridan, at a grand supper given by her Grace to Mr. Fox, Lord J. Townshend, Lord Robert Spencer, Mr. Hare, Mr. Richardson, Mr. Tickell, General Burgoyne, and other wits of renown of that day. The talents and espieglcric displayed by the young Etonian ou that occasion were far beyond his years, and were highly esteemed by the then Duke of Devonshire. Mis first essay in public life was under IVfr. Pitt's standard, as representative for Newport, Isle of Wight. The first intimacy between Mr. Canning and Lord Liverpool ( then Mr. Jenkinson) took place at Oxford. Lord Liverpool entered that University in the spring of 1787, and Mr. Canning iti the autumn of the same year. They mutually courted each other's society, and were constantly together, and with them Lord Henry Spencer, son to the late and brother to the present Duke of Marl- borough, who had been an intimate friend of Mr, Canning at Eton, and came to Christ Church, Oxford, about the same time. This accomplished Nob fe man afterwards went as British Ambassador to Berlin, where he died in 1795. The friendship Between Mr. Canning and Lord Liverpool began at the . University, and never appears to have been seriously interrupted by any political differences of opinion. Mr. Canning was first formally introduced to Mr. Pitt, by Lord Liverpool, at a dinner given by that Nobleman, at Addiscombe House, but they had known each other previously. His acquaintance with Sheridan was through his own uncle, a zealous Whig, by whom he was educated, and he continued in habits of intimacy with Sheridan until his death. The means for maintaining Mr. Canning at school and College were derived from a small paternal estate in Ireland, in the county of Kilkenny, which lie still enjoys, and the revenues of which are managed by a very estimable Clergyman of that town. Mr. Canning was said to have been a member of the " Society of Friends of the People," at the period of the French revolution, but the fact is not proved. Some say he was invited to join it, but he refused, and that the angry discussions following the refusal, led to the open declaration ofthe political opinions which he has since continued to avow. About that time he declined u seat in Parliament, offered to him by the late Duke of Portland, then ut the head of the Whig party, alleging his political sentiments as the reason. And these sentiments he embodied in a copy of verses, written on occasion of the installation of the Duke of Portland, as Chan- cellor of the University, and spoken either by Mr. Daw kins, or Lord John Beresford, ( now Primate of Ireland.) Not long after, the Duke of Portland, with more than half the Whig party, went over to Mr. Pitt. — This junction took place previous to opening the Session of 1793- 4, and the same was Mr. Canning's first Session. Lord Liverpool had left the University two years before, and had greatly distinguished Iiimself in the first Session of this Parliament. We know nothing more worthy of examination ihan the Equitable Adjustment which has, at various tim excited an extraordinary degree of attention. The proposition, under all the disguises which it puts on, is one and simple, that the contract with tlie national creditor shall not he kept, and that we shall pay him less than we bargained to " pay him. Between indivi- dual and individual, this would no doubt he reckoned a very shameful proposition ; as it is upon the observ- ance o; f a ruie'directiy the reverse, that all the happi- ness of human society is built. Destroy confidence in men's engagements, and society exists no longer. Confidence in engagements is the cement which makes an aggregate of human beings to differ from a rope of sand. Had this proposition met with a favourable reception from the nation, we should have thought it a fearful prognostic ; aud our estimate of tbe progress made by the people in intellect and morality would have, had to sustain a very serious reduction. We have heen saved from this mortification, nnd a high confirmation it is of the opinion we entertain of our fellow countrymen. The numerous newspapers iu town and country, the sentiments of which are so carefully adapted to the tasty of their readers, and'may therefore he taken as a pretty good index: of their state of mind, have been, with luiidlyan exception, loud in their condemnation of this immoral proposition, and have proclaimed the value of inviolate faith and justice,. In all that can be said about the currency, nothing is material lo the question but the two alterations in its value ; first, from a higher to a lower ; secondly, from a lower to a higher, value. The first alteration follow- ed the suspension of cash payments in 1797. Paper was iasued in such a: quantity, as materially to reduce the value of the currency. In 1797 the nation had a great debt, all contracted when the currency was of full value. When tiie value of the currency was reduced, tlie interest' of this debt was paid in the degraded cilr'rcney. ... Dining the period of the depreciation,- a gfeat amount of new debt was contracted. This was con- tracted in tlie depreciated currency. ' When the value of tlie currency was raised hy the return to cash pay- ments-, the interest of this debt was paid in a currency more valuable than that in which the loans were advanced.' But if we make from the last portion of the debt" a deduction equal to the increased value ofthe currency, we shall, of course, perform a similar act of justice with regard to the, former part, which, during the whole period of depreciation, received less interest than ought to have been paid for it. The amount of what we should have to pay in that case, has been accurately competed by fiffr. MUshef, and the result exhibited in sv set of very valuable tables. The fact is, that tlve annuity we should have to pay in perpetuity to the first sot of creditors, as an equivalent for their loss, would he greater than the annual deduction which could be made from the annuities of the second class. The creditors-, taken as a whole, have a demand upon the nation for loss, on account of changes in the currency. The nation' has no demand upon them on account of , over payment. There is another view of the case, w hich will he of great importance ns ofirn ns equity nnd morality are deemed elements iti the calculation. The loans which were made during the period of depreciation, were made hy open competition, and of course were ns favourable to tiie government as the circumstances of . the times, all taken together, would permit. If any of the favourable eirennistances had been taken away, ibe terms ofthe loans would have been less favourable. If any had been added tliey would have been more. pitting the whole time of these loans, it was Ihe law of England, by an express act of Parliament, not consi- dered as words without a meaning, not regarded as a case of legislative fraud, but an enactment of the high- est importance,- that'payments in cash should be resumed six'months after the termination of the war. Unques- tionably this resumption was as much a part of the terms of each of those loans as the amount of stock which was to be given for the money advanced. It is false, therefore, glaringly false, to say that the holders of stic, h stock are not entitled to-, the payment of their interest in the reformed currency.- They are entitled to it. It was part of their bargain ROMAN CATHOLICS. [ From fhe Cork Southern Reporter.] The head of the family is a Roman Catholic gentleman, Francis Canning, Esq. of Foxcote, in Warwickshire, the twelfth possessor of that estate, in lineal male descent from Thomas Canning, Esq. who, in the reign of Henry VI. married Agnes, sole heiress ofthe family of Le Marshal, of Foxcote, seated there from the time of Edward I. The branch from., which the premier derives his origin, was founded by George Canning, a younger son of Richard Canning, of Foxcote, who settled in Ireland, and obtained a grant of the manor' of Garvah, in the county o, f Londonderry, from Queen Elizabeth. From him descended Stratford Canning, Esq. the fifth possessor of the Garvah estate, who derived his Christian name from the surname of his mother's family, the Stratfords, Earls of A'dborongh ; his eldest son, George Canning, died in his father's lifetime,, leaving an only son, the Right Honourable George Canning, who, though representative of the elder branch of the Garvah family, was passed by in the will of his grandfather, who ieft the estate to his second son, Paul Canning, Esq. whose only son, George Canning, was created Baron Garvah in 1818. The premier,, however, succeeded to a small estate in the county of Kilkenny, of about £ 200 per annum, either by bequest, or iu aonsequence of the entail not being broken. [ From the Loudon Free Press'] Mr. Canning was born at Paddington, near London, in 1771. His paternal ancestors were originally seated at Foxcote, in Warwickshire, where a branch of the family, we believe, still re. mains. Queen Elizabeth conferred the manor of Garvah, in the county of Derry, in Ireland, on a younger son ofthe Foxcote family, who, thereupon, removed into the sister island, and, up to the father ofthe premier, his descendants continued to reside there. Stratford Canning, Esq. of Garvah, the grandfather, had two sons, George aud Paul, the The following is a copy of a letter, signed " A SHROPSHIRE CURATE," addressed to the Editor of the Gentleman^ s Magazine:— 44 The gentleman w ho, at the last meeting of the Catholics, expressed such indignation that Protestants would not adopt those views of Popery which its dis- ciples wished to propagate concerning it, may probably feel a curiosity to know the reasons why one personal least feels disposed to doubt them. Tiiey are these: 1. That Ihe British Catholics are not authorised to expound their faith; Popes and Councils alone being competent to it. 2. Because their own champion Mr. Btiiler has felt himself obliged to omit a passage in the (" reed of Pins IV. ( when giving that creed as the authorised belief of a Papist), which is ot vital im- portance, as binding every member of lhat faith " to procure that all under liim shall hold, teach, and preach," the faith of Popery, 44 quantum in me erit;" that is, to the utmost of his power. 3. Because from the mutilations and alterations of ancient authors, and the forgeries of documents, unless they read Ihe works of Protestants, where these things are exposed, no Catholic, even the most learned, has any chance of arriving at a thorough knowledge of his own religion. 4 Because those declarations are contradictory to the authorised creeds, as Mr. Butler, or the author from whom he- quoted, fell, when be suppressed the above passage. 5 Because they are contradictory to Ihe practice of that Church, which established the In- quisition in 1814, and only 10 jears ago some of the higher ranks of British Catholics expressed themselves favourable to the Inquisition, as l. loreute, itf^ late secretary declares ( Soutliey's Vindicia?, 421). 6. Be cause the ease of the priest Gandolpby ( see Mr. Croly'- publication, " Popery aud the Popish Question^") shows that every artifice is practised to " give false representations of Popery." for a Committee of the w; hole House, to take into consi- deration the proposed resolutions, with a view to decide whether their Lordships should think proper to reject or agree to the law relative to the importation of foreign Corn.— His Lordship read the Resolutions as follow: — That the wealth and strength of Great Britain originated in the cultivation of its soil, and must always be dependant on that cultivation, whatever other ad- vantages the country may possess. That the cultivation of the soil of a country is a trade and manufacture, and is so far the mosl important trade and manufacture in every country, as every other trade and manufacture most depend upon it. That, though the production of corn for the food of man is, in Great Britain, one ofthe most important ob- jects of Cultivation, yet the means of obtaining the pro- duction of corn, the quantity purchased, and the profit to be derived by the Cultivator from the product ion, are iti I dependant on many other objects of production, and especially on the production of animals and of food for animals, and on the further produce or other benefit derived from such animals ; and the general profit of the. cultivator is the result of the combination of all the several articles so produced, each article contributing to the more profitable production of the rest, the amount of the whole production at the same time greatly de- pending on the capital and skill employed in fitting the land for the purposes of cultivation, and on the capital and skill employed by the cultivator : and it is the com- bined effect of all these operating causes vvhich gives plenty from cultivation, and renders' cultivation pro, fit- able. That the laws'now in force regulating the importation of foreign corn, are founded on the principles expressed in the foregoing resolutions, having in view the ex- tension and improvement of the cultivation of the country, the increase of its productions, and insuring to the improvers'and cultivators of the country the just reward for their expenditure and labour, as expressly acknowledged in the preamble to the Act of the 15tli year of Ihe reign of King Charles the Second, intituled, " An Act for the Encouragement of Trade," in these words :—" Forasmuch as ihe encouraging of tillage ought to be, in an especial manner,' regarded and endeavoured ; and the surest and effect ual lest means of promoting and advancing any trade, occupation, or employment, being by rendering it profitable to the users thereof; and great quantities of land within this kingdom, for Ihe present lying in a manner waste, and yielding little, which might thereby he improved to considerable profit and advantage ( if sufficient en- couragement were given for the laying out of cost aud labour on the same), and thereby much more corn produced, great numbers of people, horses, and callle, employed, and other lands also rendered more valuable." That under the encouragement proposed by the said Act of tbe 15th of King Charles the Second, and many other Acts since made, in conformity to the principle expressed in the preamble to that Act, great quantities of land, which were in the 15th of King Charles the Second lying waste and yielding little, have been improved with great cost and labour, and much more corn has been produced, and great numbers of people, horses, and cattle, have been employed, and a popula- tion, very greatly increased in number, ami consuming a much greater quantity of corn in proportion to their number, lias been provided with food by means of the improvements so made, and the produce of tbe country has thereby become equal to provide for such increased population, both with corn and other food, in great abundance; unless, by tbe dispensation of Providence, the extraordinary inclemency of a particular season should happen to render the production of that season considerably less than the production of an ordinary season. That under the apprehension of the possible occur- rence of such an extraordinary season, and the conse- quent failure of crops, provision has been made in the said Act of 15th Charles II. and in all the subsequent Acts respecting the importation of foreign corn, to pre- vent the scarcity which might be produced by inclement seasons, the importation oi foreign corn being allowed whenever the prices of home- grown corn, estimated according to the value of money at the several times of passing such Acts respectively, should indicate so great a failure of crops, as to raise just apprehensions, that Ihe produce of ihe country might he insufficient'for the consumption of it's inhabitants; but al ihe same time allowing to the home growers of corn the benefit of a rise ill the prices of corn, corresponding with the defi- ciency in the quantity produced, and thereby compen- sating to them, by increase of price, the loss which they would otherwise have suffered hy deficiency in their Crops, whenever that deficiency did not, by ah extraor- dinary rise in price, iodicate the danger of distressing scarcity. , That, considering the present value of money, and the great rise of. prices of almost every article of con- sumption, and the great increase of burthens impesed on the people of Great Britain, and especially on the produce of the soil ; the prices of6() s. for the quarter of wheat, of 32s. for the quarter of barley, of 24s. for the quarter of oats, and of 36s. for the quarter of rye, peas, and beans, cannot be considered as indicating such a defieiVnoy i » the tj'inrrlitira of the aamc different SOrlS of grain produced in the country, as to warrant any apprehension of scarcity ; and, on the contrary, those prices are not more than sufficient to remunerate the corn growers for deficiency of crops in ordinary, years, as they tire very " little above ihe prices in very plentiful years, when the prices are always lower than fair remunerating prices in an ordinary year, as the supply in such very plentiful years greatly exceeds the de- mand, and the surplus forms part of the consumption of the succeeding year, and often al an advanced price. That the continual and great variations in the prices of different sorts of grain during the course of above 150 years, of which there is clear evidence, demonstrate, that assuming certaiirprices for each or any species of grain, as Ihe prices, or nearly the prices, for which such grain may he sold with advantage to the. producer iu every year, is an attempt to do that which is impossible ; and, on the contrary, that the fair prices of each year must ('. spend on the amount of the produce of each year, w hich may vary so greatly from year to year as to make the fair prices in one year greatly exceed or greatly fall short of the fair prices in another year. That to allow the importation of foreign wheat into Great Britain at all times, without payment of any duly on importation., and to permit § nch wheat afterwards at any time to he entered for sale on payment of a duty of 20s. only, whenever the average price of wheat, taken weekly in certain districts, shall amount to GOs. and to impose a scale of duties, increasing as the average price should fall below 60s. and diminishing as the average price should exceed 60s. would be to fix indirectly the price of GOs. for tbe quarter of wheal, as the highest price for which wheat should he sold, even in the most unfavourable years, in as much as foreign in our system ought to take place, and that other principles for the amelioration and improvement of India ought to be introduced, which, by their practical application, might remove that blot on our legislation — and our conduct towards India might he effaced. Mr. Gibbon, an able and eminent man, had said, a long- time ago, in reference to India, that 44 that country, the richest and most extensive possession of the East, was formerly governed hy the Great Mogul, fronr whom il was wresfed by Great Britain, a small island in the Northern Sea, aud hy which it has since been governed as a mercantile possession." He ( Mr. S.) wished to see that commercial connection, which it derived from regarding it always as a mercantile possession, accom- panied by those improvements, and by the extension of privileges and favours, which were so essential to pro- mote ( he growing prosperity of nations. The Hon. Member proceeded to express some sentiments favour- able to free trade; and concluded by hoping thai the period would arrive when the seeds of freedom, sown in India, as they had formerly been in America, by the hand of England, would— and at no distant day— bloom and flourish in the heart of Asia. Mr. HUSKISSON, although he agreed with the Hon. Member for Bridgnorth in many of his general princi- ples, defended the West India interest, and showed that they had a just claim to the protection which they enjoyed. He deemed it unnecessary to go into the proposed inquiry now, as the proper time for doing it would he when the charter of the East India Company should come to be reconsidered by the Ilouae. In the course of his speech, the Right Hon. Genllenian an- nounced a gratifying fact with respect to the present improved state of our manufactures and trade. What- ever ( said he) might have been the case some time back, he was happy to . have it in his power to infor. m the house that, at. present, things were much altered for the better. In Lancashire and the other manu- facturing- districts there were great symptoms of im- provement in every branch connected with the cotton trade. Numbers who were out of work some time back were now in full employment; and their employers were able to find a market. Those who had been long- suffering under severe privations were able by their industry to procure those comforts to which they were formerly accustomed. Mr. Put nil PS said, notwithstanding the outcry that had been raised, against the system pursued bv the Right Hon. the President of the Board of Trude'( Mr. Hnskissou), the productive industry of the country was beginning to resume its wonted energy, and trade was every where reviving. The Hon. Member proceeded to read extracts from various letters received from the manufacturing districts, slating thatn'great demand for labour had lately arisen, and that it was scarcely possi- ble to find hands enough for the employment. The cot ton- printers were now doing more than ever they did, and, in some cases, were obliged fo Work night and ( lay, to meet the orders ihey received. Power- loom printers were not lo be bad, and if the manufacturers of these articles had three times the quantity on' hand, they could dispose of it. From Blackburn it was stated, that the advance in prices was cent, per Cent, during the last week, and further advances were expected. Heavy goods were in great demand, and a rise of three- pence to four- pence per pound had taken place. Other heavy articles were snatched up the moment they came out of the loom. Weaving wages had generally advanced, and every man was employed. The Hon. Gent, observed, that this state of things naturally connected itsflf in his mind with the question of emigration, which lie had always thought good, as applied to the agricultural distress— hut fallacious, as lo others. He had never taken a desponding view of the* commerce of this country, and he was, tnore than ever, convinced of the . advantages that would proceed from the principles of Free Trade. Lord MILTON, Sir C. FORBES, and Mr. BROOCHAM agreed in the views of Mr.' WHITMORE, as did MR WYNN, who recommended, however, that fhe motion should not he pressed at " present ; to which recom- mendation Mr. WIIITMORB acceded, and withdrew his motion. Court of Chancery.— Wednesday.- Imperial ( garltamint. HOUSE OF LORDS— TUESDAY. A great number of petitions were presented against anv tt. ltemtiou in the Corn Laws. Lord RBDBSDAi E presented a petition from William Turner, Esq. of Shriglcy Park, praying for leave to introduce a Bill to declare ihe marriage of his daughter Ellen Turner w ith E. G. Wakefield to be null nnd void. — The petition was ordered to he referred to a Com- mittee of the whole House on Thursday. CORN RESOLUTIONS." Lord REDESDALE rose to introduce the resolutions, of which he had given notice, relative to the Corn Laws. —• When a motion on Foreign Trade was introduced in lhat House, in 1820, and in the discussion of which si lire reference was made to the Corn Laws, the Noble Lord ( Liverpool) then al the head of the Treasury objected to the discussion of such a subject, tending, as he staled, to change the law ns il then stood. In the course of his speech he deprecated such discussion in the following terms: — 44 Let. the law," said he, 44 be considered as fixed, and then any person may know how he is fo act, and on what terms he is to make his bargain ; but if the law is to be. continually changing, and vacillating from one side lo the other, if will be impossible for the landlord, the tenant, or ihe mer- chant to form a correct judgment ; it will be impossible for the landlord to know at what rent lie is to let his land, for the cultivator Io know on what terms he is to take it, and for the corn- dealers to ascertain in what manner their arrangements are to be made." Concur-' ring as he ( Lord Redesdale) did in the wisdom of those observations, it was with surprise he had witnessed the varionsattempissnhsequently made to alter the system of Corn Laws in Great Britain. He should therefore move wheat may generally be obtained at so low a price, that on payment of a duty of 20s. only, it can be brought into the market for sale, with considerable profit, at a price below 60s. the quarter; and if a pro- position to that effect should be made law, wheat produced in Great Britain can never be sold at a higher price than GOs. the quarter; and the effect of such a law must be to keep the price of wheat al all times under GOs. the quarter, whatever failure may happen in the home- grown crops. The Noble Lord addressed the House in support of these resolutions, and in conformity w ith their substance and intention. Lord CODERICH opposed the resolutions; hut he thought tin; best course to be adopted on the present occasion would be to abstain from discussing either the general principles, or particular details of the Bill relative to the importation of foreign corn, of which he should move the second reading on Friday. Lord BEX LEY also opposed the resolutions. The Earl of LAUDERDALE, ihe Earl of RCSSLYN, and Earl STANHOPE, concurred in the views of the Earl of Redesdale; but as the general subject would be debated on Friday, they thought it would be best to lay the resolutions before their Lordships without found! no- un J motion upon them — In" this the Earl of Redesdale concurred, and their Lordships adjourned. HOUSE OF COMMONS— TUESDAY. Mr. W. WOLRYCHE WHITMORE moved for the ap- pointment of a Select Committee to inquire into the stale of the trade between Great Britain and India. The Hon. Gent, introduced his motion in a speech ol great length, in the course of w hich he expressed him- self anxious that new markets should be sought, for our manufactures, in the East. This he thought prac- ticable; and he supported his argument by referring lo ihe extensive commerce which had grown out of ihe partial opening ofthe trade, effected on Ihe last renewal of the East India Company's charter. When the opening of tbe trade v\ as required, the monopoly advocates contended that it was impossible our com- merce could be made much greater than it had been in that quarter, yet we were now underselling the Indian in his own market, though labour cost here seven or eight times as much as it did there; and though we had to draw the raw material from thence, over half the globe, and send it back, manufactured, over the same half of the globe. He wished, looking at these circumstances, to give encouragement to the Easl India trade, by withdrawing a portion ofthe protection now given exclusively to that of the West Indies, and professed himself at a loss to understand upon what principle of political justice it Was, that greater duties were laid upon produce coming from the East than from the West, our possessions in India being as much . a part of the Empire as Jamaica or Trinidad. Mr. SLANEY, in seconding the motion, hoped that the House would excuse any hesitation or difficulty he might betray, in addressing the House, almost for tbe first, time. He considered that ihe nature of the trade which had subsisted betwee n this country aud India, ever since our connexion with lhat vast and important country, was of that restrictive character which denied lo India the fair developement of her resources, and the commercial advantages to which she was entitled. A general opinion was now entertained, that a change MORRIS, otherwise WILLIAMS, D. DAVIES & WI# E. Mr. TAUNTON said this was an issue which had been directed by this Court, that came on for trial at the last Shrewsbury Assizes, and in which a verdict had, been found for ihe plaintiff; he was now instructed to make such observations as would, he hoped, induce his Lordship to send for ihe notes of the Learned Judge who tried ihe cause, with the view of sending it down for a new trial. The simple question to he propounded to the Jury by that issue was, whether or not Mr, Morris, the plaintiff, was the legitimate child of the late Mr. William Mortis, and Mary, his wife, and it was the- only question which the. Learned Judge oug- ht to have left to the Consideration of the Jury. The property at stake w as very considerable, as it consisted of estates worth not less than £ 1,400 a- year. It was a ense - which, in i's ( Vcvelopemer. t, possess'ed considerable difficulty, and much delicacy. He did not mean tn enter into a detail of the evidence fiirther than was necessary to give lift Lordship an insight into tlie Case, and he would at once stale what were the grounds on which he moved for " the new trial; thev We're, first, that the Judge did not charge the Jury with sufficient distinctness, on the credit'due to the witnesses called by the plaintiff, considering that their testimony and veracity, had been strongly questioned ; and secondly, that the Judge was not correct in tbe law he laid down to the Jury! The question at law was this, whether the presumption of legitimacy was in favour of ibe plaintiff, from the circumstance of Mr. and Mrs. Morris being husband arid wife, and Mr! Morris being in England, at the, lime of the plaintiff's birth, when these circum- stances were encountered, by others sufficiently strong to rebut that presumption; Ins proposition being that the facts of the case amounted to an absolute demon- stration that the plaintiff was illegitimate; that he wns, in fact, not the issue of Mr. Morris, but the son of a man named Austin. The LORD CHANCELLOR.— Were Mr. and Mrs. Morris separated/? Mr. TAUNTON.— Yes, my Lord. The circumstances of the case were these: — Mr. and Mrs. Morris were married iii 1778. Mr. Morris was, al that time, a medical gentleman, and for some years after his mar- riage lived with his wife nt Shrewsbury, where he practised in his profession. In 1781, the defendant, Mrs. Harriet Davies, was born, and she, it is contended, is the only lawful issue of that marriage. During ihe time Mr. and Mrs. Morris were living at Shrewsbury, they had a domestic servant in the house, whose name was VVilliam Austin, and that man was the son of a poor weaver then living at Wem. It appeared that some familiarities had passed between this servant and Mrs. Morris, previously to 1781, and in the month of March in that year, Mrs. Morris eloped from her husband's house. The LORD CHANCELLOR.— Did Mrs. Morris elope with her servant ? Mr. TAUNTON*.— That does not appear, my Lord, but we shall find them together very soon afterwards. In the month of May of fhe same year, articles of separa tion were entered into between Mr. and Mrs. Morris, by which he consented, to. allow, her £ 200 a- year, and they never afterwards lived together. Mrs. Morris then withdrew to Llan/ air, where she remained till 1795. Mr. Morris al. so gave, up his professional pursuits after a time and retired to Argoed, where he remained till his death, in 1810. It should be staled that Argoed was only sixteen miles from Llanfair, and in that circumstance lay the strength of the case lie had to submit, as it was quite clear an improper intercourse bad existed between Mrs. Morris and Austin, after she went to live there, and before the birth of the plaintiff, in January, 1793, and the material year was, therefore, 1792. Now, in order to prove that the husband had access lo his wife, witnesses were called, who stated, that Mr Morris had been seen iu the town of Llanfair, and in the very house where his wife was then residing, at different periods within that year. The LORD CHANCELLOR.— Does any one say that he. was seen with his wife about the March of that year? Mr. TAUNTON.— None about that critical tini£, my Lord ; but in the summer and autumn of that year it was said that Mr. Morris was seen there. Mr. AGAR said it was distinctly proved that Mr. Morris was seen at Mrs. Morris's house iu the spring of 17^ 2. Mr. TAUNTON— It was very vaguely proved that he was there at that time, and circumstances were stated and sworn to, ns to the condition of Mrs. Morris at different periods of that' year, which it was utterly impossible could have been true, taking into consider- ation the fact that tiie plaintiff was born in the January of 1793. On that event taking place the greatest anxiety prevailed, as well on the part of Mrs. Morris as of Austin, and a lady named Wynne, then living in the house, to preserve the strictest secresy of the events then passing. So great was the desire to prevent the discovery of the birth, that the moment the child was born, although that was in the middle of the night, " it was packed tip very comfortably," and transported, in the middle of the nig ht, in that inclement season, across the country on horseback, to the house of old , Austin, whom lie would call the plaintiff's grandfather. The child remained there till lie was old enough to be sent to school, and was maintained partly by the money of the old man and partly by that of young Austin, his son. After the birth of this son the condition of Austin became very much altered ; he was called Mr. William Austin by the servants, and appeared to be the master in the house; he had horses to ride, and dogs vsere kept for his amusement; more Than tliis, Mrs. IVIort- is, slill prodigal in her bounty to her favourite, purchased liim a com mission in llie army, and he gradually rnse in his new profession tTti he attained ilie rank of a Captain. The I. ORD CHANCELLOR— Was he living with Mrs. Moms in 1792? - Mr. TAUNTON— Yes; ond until he left lliis country Willi his regiment. lie died ahrond in the island of St. Vincent in the year 1807. Now the child, while it remained ut school, was sometimes called bv the name of Evan Austin, at others Evan Williams, and at limes Evan Morris. The LORD CHANCELLOR — BY what name did Mr. Austin call il ? Mr. T AUNTON— There wns no evidence of that : Iml there ivas evidence that he called the child liis darling, and that he spoke to and fondled nith it as a father would with his oft'spring. ISesidej. this, a copy of a baptismal register of .11 tli January, 17<) 3, was produced, in which the child was registered ns " Kvan Williams, a base child;" and a note was - affixed In il ( bat lie could not say it was in the Vicar's Imndwriling), in these words, " supposed lo be the son of Austin, Ihe weaver." The LORD CHANCELLOR— Was lliat given in evidence : Mr. Cmtwoou— It was, after an objection bad been made to its being rend. Mr, TAUNTON.— Autilber sinonlar fealure in the case strongly tending lo shew- thai Captain Austin was tlie father, was Ibis— his mother nnd ftill\ er were both in a very bumble slation iu life ; indeed, so poor that at one period they were receiving parochial relief; yet did Captain Austin ( against w- boiu lie had nothing to say, for lie appeared to be a man of gpoil disposition aiid possessed of kindly feelings), when be made bis will, give all his property away from his parents lo ibis plaintiff', bv Ihe name of Evan Williams, he being a child of whom it is to he supposed be knew ' nothing. A umber circunisiancf given in evidence ( which, though of a ludicrous description, was supported hv the authority of one of the greatest Judges who ever sat in Westminster Hall) was lhat of the evidence of resem- blance, for it was proved in Court that nothing could be more like ibe deceased Captain Austin than wa. s the present plaintiff. This remarkable resemblance was demons!]- aled in another wa, v. Il happened lhat while the Captain was abroad, lie'sent to Mrs. Morris, as a token of his affection, a very beantifully- exccuud miniature likeness of himself. * He had that miniature in Court. The plaintiff was also in Court, and be offered to hand it to the Jury for their inspection, and for them to draw their own conclusion; when up jumped his Frieuds, and objected to his doing so, and the Judge deciding in their favour, he was compelled i) withdraw il. However, the witnesses who were examined as to the resemblance said, that they were as much alike as two peas— or as two candles burning on a table, t » ) use their own vulgar expressions.— J; ie had novv shown that the plaintiff had been brought up, educated, and recognized by Mr. Austin; he would next show the want of knowledge which Mr. Morris had of lhat child, who was said lo be his legiiimate and only son. IL was proved by the sister of. Mr. Morris, w ho lived in her brother's hotis. e, th. at this plaintiff was not knovvn to him, nor was he known to be in existence by any member of the family, except his mother. This was further established by two Wills which Mr. Morris had made. Tliat gentleman had a daughter, who was married to Mr. Davies ( ihe defendant) in 1799. The marriage offended Mr. Morris, and he then made a wiilj by which be disinherited her, aud left the whole of Ins property to a nephew. At this time the plaintiff was seven years old, and, at that early age, could have given no'offence w hich could have induced a father wholly lo withdraw his affection from an only son; and his havi ng done so was a strong proof that lie was not conscious of I he existence of such a hoy. Subsequently to this'Mr. Morris became reconciled to his daug hter, and, iii 1$ 0 § , made another, will, giving fo. her all the property lie was then possessed of. At this- period the ' plaintiff was 15 years old, and it was not probable he would a second time disinherit him without assigning any cause. Again, an agreement, dated in 1& H7, was produced relative to some property which Mr. Morris was entitled to under a, n liiclosure Act, and in that instrument' he called Mrs. Davies his only child and heir- at- law. Now this was reciting a wilful falsehood, if at that time Mr. Morris was aware that the plaintiff was his son. This was the sort of evidence brought forward to show that the plaintiff could not have been the son of Mr. Morris, under whom he now claimed this estate and property. Besides these circumstances, there was. the fact that'when ihe plaintiff was a school- boy he always spoke of Captain Austin as being his father ; he also used to relate a tale of the providential escape his fath, er had in one of the battles in which he hflid be, en, by a cannon ball striking against a dollar in his pocket, by which singular piece of good fortune his life had been saved. It was not less remarkable that the circumstances attending the birth of tbe plaintiff— his being hurried away to a distant part of ihe country, in the dead ofthe night, in an inclement season of the year— were found minutely detailed in a pocket- hook belonging to hinisclf; and in these memorandums lie sp} oke as if having a full knowledge that Capt. Austin Was his father. ' Hie LORD CHANCELLOR.— Were these minutes in the pi a i n t i ff' s o w n w r i ting ? Mr. TAUNTON— Oh, yes, my Lord, that was admitted ; THE BISCUIT. [ FROM THE MILITARY SKETCH BOOK.] ami all these tilings taken together,- eventually led to a conclusion that the plaintiff was the son of Captain Austin, and riot of Mr. Morris; and he really believed the Judge who tried the cause was of that opinion, and that the Jury would have found for fhe defendant, hut that the Judge pressed so strongly &' pon, their minds the law which lie laid down, that they lost sight of the facts that were submitted to iheir' Consideration. The LORD CHANCELLOR— What evidence was there of any intimacy between ihe man and wife in 1792? Mr. TAUNTON— None on earth. Mr. CURWOQD— Oh, yes; there was one witness said. That Mr. Morris came tothe house in the spring; Mrs. Morris then met him in the passage, and they both burst into tears; and that afterwards they retired into the parlour, where they remained for several hours. In addition fo this it was said that they afterwards slept together. Mr. TAUNTON remarked, that this evidence was given by a woman whose testimony was very much doubled. She had denied that she was to have £ 60 if the verdict tvas favourable; but she was believed not lo be the witness of truth. He would state what were the cir- cumstances <> f th « \ t interview, according to the evidence of the woman alluded to. She had said that somewhere about the lime mentioned, Mr. Morris came to the house, ond on seeing his wife, they both hurst into tears, and then separated, and went into different rooms ; and this was the only proof of their being together in 1792. lie would now inform the Court of the law which the Learned Judge laid down on the trial. His Lordship told the Jory> ' hat there must be proof, not only lhat Mr. and Mrs. Morris had not had access to each other, but that there was not the possibility of their having access; and in default of that proof they must find for the la in tiff. The LORD CHANCELLOR.— Do you mean to say that the Learned Judge said, thai ihe jury must be satisfied that there was not the possibility of their having had access before they could find for the defendants ? Mr. TAUNTON.— Y^ S, over and over again he said so. The LORD CHANCELLOR.— Then their living sixteen miles apart was no point to make, because that did not preclude the possibility of their meeting. I think there is quite sufficient grounds for calling on the Judge for his notes. According to the Dublin papers, it would appear that the Reformation is proceeding with great rapid- ity in Ireland— especially in the north, the scat of the i\ ne, n and cotton manufactory. ABSENCE OF MIND.— On Tuesday last, a very- respectable tradesman of this city, having occasion to visit Liverpool, took bis seat on the top of one of the coaches ; just, however, as it was about to start, he missed his pocket book, containing about two hundred and fifty pouuds, in bank notes. In the greatest possible alarm he dismounted, and having procured the assistance of a police< officer, proceeded to the Ba. nks to prevent their exchange, and searched every place where he had been before, high aud low, but to no purpose. Cold drops of sweat hung on his trembling brow, and the journey to Liverpool being; given up, he returned to his house, to give vent to grief for his loss; here, however, his sorrow was turned into joy, for on changing his coat, the pocket book and bank notes were found safely deposited in that appropriated to every day wear, which he had discarded just before his departure for oue not quite so threadbare. Another mortifying circumstance now turned up. It appeared he forsook the Liverpool coach so hastily, that he left behind him fourteen pounds of coffee without any direction as to its delivery; but consoled himself with the reflection that it was better to lose that, than two hundred and fifty pounds.—- We have heard that tbe same gentleman once went half way to London wheu he discovered a similar loss, and on returning home found the money ou his parlour table.— Chester Chronicle.

BYRON, Our advanced guard had been skirmishing with lire enemy for five days — and with empty stomachs. The Commissary of the division had either missed us in his* inarch with the provisions, for which he had been despatched to the rear, or else had not heen successful in procuring a supply: but whatever might hove been the cause, ihe consequence was unpleasant to us; for the men, officers and all, were wholly without provi-~ sions for three d ys. At the lime the commissary wenC to the rear, two pounds of biscuit, one pound of meat, and a pint of wine were served out to each individual ; and upon this quantity we were forced to exist for five, days; for nothing was to be bought: if we had heen loaded with gold we could not have purchased a morsel of food. Most of the men, from having been accustomed to disappointment in supplies of rations, managed their little stock of provisions so economically, that it lasted nearly three days; and some were so gnstronomieaUy ingenious and heroic, as to have extended it to four. But, on the other hand, the greatest number were men of great appetite and lillle prudence, who saw and tasted the ends of their rations on the second day after possession. ln, deed, the active life in which all were then engaged, left few without that piquant relish for their food which the rich citizen, in the midst of his luxury, might gladly exchange half his wealth for; the grealest of them all, in taste ns well as purse, c a ti- ne ver enjov his epnlation with so enviable a zest as- those campaineers did their coarse dry beef, and flinty, biscuit. As the men grew weaker, the work grew heavier; and as hunger increased, so did the necessity for phy- sical exertion. The enemy were constantly ojjiioyiti^, us, and every hour of the d, ay brought a skirmish, either with their little squads of cavalry, their rifle- men, or their Voltigeurs.* The rifles would advance by the cover of a hedge, or hill perhaps, while the Voltigenrs would suddenly dart out from a ditch, into which they had crept under cover of Ihe weeds, and" fall upon our picquets with the ferocity of hull- dogs; and when they were mastered, would ( if not killed, wounded, or held fast) scamper off like kangaroos, lo like manner, the cavalry would try to surprise us ; or, if they could not steal upon us, would dash up, fire their pistols, and, if well opposed, gallop off again — particu- larly if any of our cavalry were near; for they never liked close quarters with the British dragoon?, owing, no doubt, to the superior strength and power of our horses; ibis is as regards mete skirmishing. The French dragoons, when so situated as to he able to ride close to ours without danger of " cut and thrust," would skirmish for hours— they would retire, load,- advance, fire, ond off again but they very prudently disliked the steel.— On the fifth morning after the com- missary had delivered the rations above- mentioned, we had a very sharp brush with the enemy. A company of infantry and a few dragoons were ordered to dislodge the French from a house iu which they had a party,; and which was necessary to the security of our posi- tion; for from this house they used to sally upon our picquets iu a most annoying manner. The French, not more than about fifty in number made a considerable resistance! they received the English with a volley from the windows, and immediately retreated to a high hank behind the house: front this point they continued • to fire, until their flank was threatened by our dragoons, when they retreated iu double quick disorder, leaving ahoui 15 killed and wounded. Our men were then starving. The poor fellows,, although they had forgotten their animal wants in the execution of their duty, plainly displayed in their faces the weakness of their bodies. Every man of the crowded encampment looked wan and melancholy ; but all kept up their flagging spirits hy resolution and patience. Many a manly fellow felt in silence the bitterness of his situation, and many a forced Hibernian joke was passed from a suffering heart to lighten a comrade's cares. There was no upbraiding, for all were sufferers alike; and, with the exception of a few pardonable curses on the commissary, there was no symptom of turbulence— all was manly patience. In about an. hour after the taking of the old house in front, f went out from our lint in a wood, to see the place of action. 1 met four or five of our men wpunded^ led and carried by their comrades. The officer com- manding the. party now joined me, and walked back to the house, to give farther directions regarding other wounded men not yet removed.— When we had gone about fifty yards, we met a wounded soldier carried , verj slowly in a blanket by four men. As soon as he saw the officer who was along with me, he cried out in. a feeble but forced voice, " Stop ! stop ! lay me down—^ let the speak to Ihe captain." The surgeon, who was* along with him, had no objection, for, in my opinion, lie thought the man beyond the pnwer of his skill, and' ihe sufferer was laid gently down upon the turf, under the shade of a projecting rock. 1 knew the wounded man's face in a moment, for I had often remarked him' as being a steady well- conducted soldier: his age was about,, forty- one or two, and he had a wife and two children in England. 1 saw death iu the poor fellow's face. He was shot in the throat— or rather between tbe shoulder and the throat : the hall passed apparently downwards, probably from having been fired irom the little hill on vvhich the French posted themselves when they left the house. The blood gurgled from the wound at every, exertion be made lo speak. I asked the sur- geon what he thought of the man, and that gentleman whispered, " It is all over with him." He said' he had done every thing he could do to slop the blood, but found, from the situation of the wound, that it was im- possible to succeed. The dying soldier, on being laid down, held out his hand to my friend the captain, which was not only cordially received, hut pressed with pity and tenderness hy that officer. Sir, yon have been my best friend ever since I entered the regiment— you have heen every man's friend in the company, and a good officer. God bless you 1— You saved me once from punishment, which yon all knew afterwards, that I was unjustly sentenced to. God bless you !" Here the tears came from his eyes, and neither the captain nor any one around could conceal their kindred sensation. All wept silently. The poor sufferer resumed :— M I have only to beg, sir, you will take care that my dear wife and little ones shall have my back pay as soon as possible : 1 am not many hours for this world." The captain pressed big hand, but could not speak. He hid his face iu his handkerchief. 44 I have done my. duty, Captain— have T not, sir?" 41 You have, Tom, you have— and nobly done it," replied the captain, with great emotion. 44 God bless you!— I have only one thing more to say." Then addressing one of his couvradcs, he. asked for his haversack, which was immediately handed to him.— 41 I have only one thing to say, captain;" said he, 41 I have not Ijeen very well this week, sir, and did not cat all my rations. I have one biscuit— it is all I possess. You, as well as, others, sir, are without bread — take if for the sake of a poor grateful soldie^ r— take it— take it, sir, and, God be with you— God Almighty be with you !" The ppor good- natured creature was totally ex- hausted, as he concluded ; lie leaned back — his eyes grew a dull glassy colour— his face still paler, and he expired in about ten minutes after, on the spot,. The captain^ wept IiHe a eliij. d. Few words were spoken. The body was borne along with us to the w; ood where the division was bivouacked^ and the w hole of the company to. w hich tbe man be- longed attended his interment, which took place in. about two hours after. He was wrapped in his blanket, just as he was., and laid in the earth. The captain himself read a prayer over his grave, an, d pronounced a short but impressive eulogy on the ' merits of the departed. He showed the men the biscuit, as he related to them the manner in which it had been given to him, and he declared he' would never taste it, but keep the token in re nie nib ranee, of the good soldier, even though he starved. The commissary, however, arrived that night, and prevented the necessity of trial to the captain's amiable resolution. At the same time, I do believe, that nothing would' have made him eat the biscuit. This is no tale of fiction: the fact occurred befo: e; the author's eyes. Let no. man, then, in his ignorance, throw taunts upon the soldier, and tell him that his gay apparel and his daily bread are pai, d, for out of the citizen's pocket. Rather let him think on this biscuit, and reflect, that the soldier earns his crust as well as lie, aud when the day of trial comes, will bear the worst and most appalling privations, to keep the enemy from snatching tlie last biscuit out of the ciJLi$ enS$,. mouth. It is for his countrymen at home, that he starves— il is for them he dies. * Troops of v? ry short stature and strong make, very, much esteemed by Napoleon.
