A Medicine prepared by a Shropshire Gentleman Farmer, SUPERIOR TO ALT. THE PREPARATIONS IN THE WORLD, For tbe Cure of the Venereal Disease, the King's Evil, Scrofula, Scurvy, Fistulas, and every Dis- order arising from Impurity of the Blooil. PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS are well known throughput Shropshire, and indeed throughout the Kingdom at large, for the Cure of the above Disorders, and without the Aid of Mercury or of any Surgical Operation, that any Comment on their Virtues is quite unnecessary. As a Purifier of the Blood they are unrivalled in their Effects. And their Efficacy has been attested in numberless Instances; many of them on Oath before the Magistrates of Shrewsbury ; th. u$ establishing their Pre- eminence over the Nostrums of ignorant Quacks, and over the more established Prescriptions of the Regular Faculty. In Cases of FEMALE DEBILITY, TURN OF LIFE, and any other Affliction. of the Body arising from a changed or vitiated System, the PLOUGHMAN'S DROPS may he relied upon for a certain and speedy Cure. N. B. Doctor SMITH does not recommend a starv- ing System of Diet : he allows his Palients to live like Englishmen while taking the Ploughman's Drops. These Drops are to be had in square Bottles, with these words moulded on each, " Mr. Smith'' s Ploughman's Drops," ( all others are spurious), at £ 1. 2s. the large, and lis. the small, Duty in- cluded, at PLOUGHMAN'S HALL, Upton Magna, near Shrewsbury ; also of W. and J.

Imposture Unmasked. fg^ HE progress of Merit, though frequently H- assailed, is not impeded by Envy and Detraction. The aggression of ambuscade terminates in defeat; and conscious rectit ude ultimately triumphs in the attainment of the grand object— public approbation. The test of experience is ihe guarantee of favour, and has estab- lished WARREN';* BLACKING in general estimation, of which there exists not a stronger proof than the taCit acknowledgment of a host of servile imitators, who surreptitiously obtrude on the unwary a spurious pre- paration as the genuine article, to the great disappoint- ment of the unguarded purchaser, and manifest injury of WARREN, whose character and interest by this iniquitous system are equally subject to detriment, ll becomes therefore an indispensable duty to CAUTION THE PUBLIC against the manoeuvres of Unprincipled Venders, who having no character to lose, and stimu- lated by avarice- in their nefarious'pursuits, aim at the acquisition of money throngh any medium than that of honour! The original and matchless BLACKING bears on each bottle a short direction, with the signa- ture, Robert Warren. All others are counterfeits ; nnd in many instances the imposition labels are artfully interlined with a different address, in very small characters, between the more conspicuous ones of " No. 30," and " STRAND." Il is earnestly recommended to Shopkeepers and other who are deceived by base fabrications of WARREN's BLACKING to return the detected trash to the source whence it came, and expose the machinations of ras- cality to merited obloqnv. WARREN's BLACKING is surpassingly brilliant ; — it excludes damp; <> ives pliancy to the leather; re- tains ils pristine virtue in all climates; and, combining elegance wiih comfort, is an article equally of indis- pensable fashion and utility.

As there is a great Demand for BEAR's Gli EASE, a Person has the Pretension to say that he is the only Proprietor of the genuine Article, when in Fact he is perhaps the only one that has not the genuine Bear's Grease ; but if the Purchasers will oive themselves the Trouble of smelling it with Attention, they will easily discover the Deception, his Composition being a Mix- ture of Oil of Almonds, Hog's Lard, and Mutton Suet, perfumed with a little Bergamot ; which, from having analyzed it, J. DELCROIX can assert to be a Fact. Such Composition, in Lien of being beneficial to the Preservation or Growth of the Hair, has a decidedly contrary effect ; Oil of Almonds, in particular, being of a very desicative Nature, and not of a nutritive one ; whereas GENUINE Bear's Grease certainly may be re- garded as one of the best Articles for promoting the Growth of the Hair. Therefore, to prevent the Public from falling into Error by using snch Imitations, which are so insulting to the common Understanding, and iu Order to detect the spurious from the genuine Bear's Grease, J. DELCROIX begs to give a brief Description of it : — The Fat of the Animal, when lie receives it in Casks from Russia, is rather offensive, and ofa Yellow Reddish Hue, but when purified, it resembles very much tlip Mixture of Veal Fat and Beef Marrow,, with less of Tinge, and although it is of moderate Consistence, yet il is of an oilv and rich Nature. To be had, GENUINE and well perfumed, in various sized Pots, of J. DELCROIX, Perfumer to the Royal Family, 158, New Bond- street ( removed from 33, Old Bond- street), and sold, with his Name, by Mr. William Nightingale, Mr. John Nighiingaler Mr. Thomas Bowd- ler, Mrs. { Inline ( Pride Hill), Mr. Samuel Hulme, Mr. Pyke, and Messrs.

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 np all Hopes of being cured, till seeing a Lelter 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 1 had, taken three of your 4s. 6d. Bottles, I 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 yon, I trust you will allosv this Case of mine to go before the Public, in Hopes that Tt may reach the Hands of the afflicted, and render them the same Comfort 1 now experience.

AM1> COURIE1 OF WALES. HOUSE OF LORDS- WEDNESDAY. The Marquis of SALISBURY obtained leave to bring- in a'bill to legalise the Sale: of Game under ' certain restrictions. The ' object, as stated by the Noble Marquis, was not to remedy the defects in the general System of the Game Laws, but to put a stop to the viiicrease of poaching, without, interfering with the existing laws for the preservation of game. He should propose to give to all persons1 who possessed qualifications for killing game, the power of taking out certificates to sell the game tu> licensed dealers. His hill would give the power to those who possessed a sufficient quantity of laud, to make it. worth their while to sell game, and to make a profit of it, ifVtliey Were so inclined, by nroiMiring a qualified person to kill it. He proposed to make- the bill temporary, limiting its Operation to a perio'd of three years. ^ It Was- admitted-^ fbm the supply of game was insufficient in all large towns; and the effect . of the. measure would, be apprehended, be. to increase the supply, and t< » diminish the temptation to poaching — A . num- ber of petitions were presented to their Lordships,- chiefly agricultural. HOUSE Of COMMONS- WEDNESDAY. . A number of petitions on the subject of th « Test aud Corporation Ac's were presented.. . The Sou erroG F- rr B ft AX moved for leave to bring in ii hiU for preventing arrests upon mesne process on debts under £ 20, the operation of the lav* to be ex- tended to pro'mi- ss- ory notes, and ' other.-. instruments, which were formerly exempt ; he thought that neces- sary, because promissory notes w'- ere frequently ob- tained from needy debtors, and writs then issued upon tfhem — Lord;- A LTffcOKP highly approved the measure, nnd wished that the hill could be extended to remove a more important evil — that of recovering small debts.— Mr. PERL said he believed a bill to that effect was now ready to be brought before the House, if the Noble Lord wished it to be introduced. Mr. HEAT^ COTB said he felt indebted to the Right Hon. Gentleman ( Mr. Peel) for the part be had taken, with so ujuclh honour fo himself, in reforming- . tb © of the canutry. There was one grievance which had recently coine wider his notice while acting at the. Quarter Sessions, which he desired to submit to his consideration. He meant the imposition of fees on parties acquitted upon charges of assault. The case was that of a farmer, who, upo. n being acquitted in an assault case, was com pel I e4 to pay fees to the amount of->( is. before he could be discharged ; whereas, if he had beeu found guilty aittf fined Is. he would have beeu discharged without the payment of any fee whatever, tfo hard did the case appear, that the party begged to be found guilty.— Mr. PEEL said, that to meet the grievance mentioned by the Hon, Member ( Mr, ileath- cote) he would propose this simple plan— abolish the fees altogether. He would'endeavour to ascertain from what'fund the parties uow entitled to the fees could be indemnified, and then propose their abolition at once. Lord ALTHOKP obtained leave to bring in a bill for the better registration of Freeholders iu England and Wales. HOUSE OF LORDS- FRIDAY. A division took place on the Corn Bill. It had by some been expected that the division on this bill would have been made an occasion for trying the strength - of the party in opposition to- the new Minis- try ; but. ' the'• question was one on which the opinions of the individual " members must have been so long settled, and in Which individual interests were, or were supposed to be, so deeply engaged, that the division was perhaps not very different from that which wOiild, have taken place if Lord Liverpool bad been in the House to'support the measure himself.— Viscount GODERICII prefaced 11iS-' motion for its com- mittal, by an elaborate detail of the principle and operation of the bill.— The Earl of M'A LM^ SFFRRY warmly opposed himself to it, and concluded by moving that it be committed on that day three months. — The Earl of ROSRBERRY, the Duke of SOMERSET, Lord BEXLEY, the Marquis of LANSDOWKE, and Earls CAERNARVON and DARNLRY, spoke in approbation of the measure; and Earls MANSFIPLD, STANHOPE, and liossLYN, and Lord RKDRSDALE, strongly in con- demnation. The Marquis of SALISBDRY and Lord ELLENBOROCGII felt much objection to the bill, though their opposition did not go to the extent of other Noble Lords. — On a division the numbers were, for the motion 120; against it 63— majority in favour of the committal of the bill 57. It was then committed pro forma, and ordered to be re. Committed on Friday next. HOUSE OF COMMONS- FRIDAY. Mr. D, DAVENPORT gave notice, that he should, on the 14th of June, bring forward a motion for an inquiry into the distressed state of'the country, Mr. SLANKY begged toask the Right Hon, Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether it was the intention of His Majesty's Government,. in the course of the present Session of Parliament, to bring- forward any measures calculated to carry into effect the excel- lent recommendations of the Committee on the Poor Laws, contained in the reports of the years 1814 and 3817? Mr, Secretary BotfRNE replied', that there was no intention of doing so, on the part of Government, this Session, although the suggestions in question had most undoubtedly not been lost sight of. Mr. SLANEY then gave notice, that, on the 12th of June next, he would bring forward a motion relative to ihe employment of the able- bodied Poor. On Mr. MERRIES moving: that the House resolve itself into a Committee of Supply,— Sir T. LETH BRIDGE rose, and expressed his conviction that be should not be called to order now. He was performing a duty, and he would, if he had tlie power, prevent any further supplies— he would, if he could, prevent the Administration from proceeding further. He had been threatened by the Premier, in highly poetical language, but which'Was very like prose ( a laugh J to have his eyes bleared, nnd his heart blasted ( much laughter); but if he told the Right Hon . Gentleman w hat the country thought of him, it would " grieve his heart." — He declared he had not confidence in the present Administration, composed as it. was of such clashing and opposite principles. The Cabinet had 15 member's ; 12 were for Catholic Emancipation, 3 against— 12 to 3, fearful odds. The Whigs had got the wedge in — let the Right Hon. Gentleman, look sharp, or they will drive it up to the hilt, f Loud laughter.) It was unconstitutional, in his view it was unquestionably a grievous wrong to have n Prime Minister with one set of principles, and others to Whom lie must not allude, having diteetly oppoaite principles.— Mr. WINN would support the Adminis- tration, though he looked with astonishment at the conduct of the Whigs- who had thrown the Roman Catholic Question overboard. — Lord SANDON said that was not the case, for previously to the change it was agreed that such question should uot be brought for- ward this session.- V- Lord J. RUSSELL said, on the subject of supplies, he should not call for any re- trenchment this year ; but next year he thought they ought to hear what retrenchments the Government would propose,— The house having gone into a Com- mittee of Supply, and the several sums moved for granted, it again resumed, and the other orders of the day having been disposed of, the house adjourned. CHE SALOPIAN WEDNESDAY. MAY 30, 1827. EG^ The letter of Mr. J. !!. if inserter!, would be subject to the advertisement duly : its contents would be other- wist* unobjectionable, We agree in opinion with " A I. OOKER- ON," but the insertion of bis letter would, by some parties, be considered a personal attack. SE^* A pressure of Advertisements and olher temporary matter obliges us to postpone the letter of " A TRAV ELl. liR," the Extract from the Bible Society Report, aud a variety of other articles, ( ali of whirh are in lype,) until next week. ft^* A Correspondent, anticipating the beautiful appear, ance of St. Mary's Church, from the (- nstern approach to the / own, when the Salop Infirmary shall be entirely removed, suggests Ihe propriety of adopting another site for the New Establishment, so as to leave the noble structure of St. Mary's Church open to the view, and by which means the parish may also be accommodated with additional room for their cemetery.

Upwards of 50 gentlemen were present. J. Salwey, Esq. iu the chair. The last solemn duty of committing? the morlal remains of Thomas Crewe Dod, Esq. of Edge Hall, to the family vault at Malpas Church, took place on Friday last. The hearse was preceded by the Undertaker on horsebacks the Surgeon on horse- back; the Rev. W. W. Drake's carriage; the Rev.

Two mourning- coaches, containing- the Chief Mourners and Pall- bearers, ( near relatives and friends of the deceased) followed immediately after the body; next, were placed the Domestics on horseback, with mourning cloak, and hatbands, succeeded by a long train of the eafriag- es of the surrounding- gentry, all attending unsolicited, aud thereby testifying- the respect of their owners for the memory of their greatly valued, and deeply deplored friend and neighbour.

The Chairman, in a speech replete with eloquence and pathos, showed the great utility of christian missions^ and dwelt largely on the great success of the Gospel iti foreign parts, illustrating his eloquent remarks with several appropriate anecdotes. Several other Ministers, and particularly the Rev. G. Highfield, pleaded the cause of the abject Heathen ; and in tBe course of hi* remarks, Mr. H. adverted to the hostility of the Popish Priests' in Ireland to the distribution of the Soripttu'es in that country, ns it appeared they had collected from the peasantry quantities of Bibles, which had been sent them from England, arid had transmitted them to Manchester for sale* where they were sold at prices considerably lower than thtSy could be afforded by the Society in Loudon — The sum of ±' 44 was collected, and the numerous and respectable auditory seemed greatly pleased with the highly interesting Meeting.

In the HOUSE OF COMMONS, several petitions pray- ing for a duty on Foreign Wool were presented, and a discussion took place, iu which Mr. Huskisson defend- ed the policy pursued by the Government in admitting Foreign Wool at the present low duty ; lie said, the great depression in the price of wool in England, was ihe consequence of wild speculations; lie intimated that Government would still adhere tothe system of which the ' wool- growers complained, as there were other classes whose interests, he said, must also be Considered. On the Penryn Election Bill being committed, Lord JOHN RUSSELL proposed that the Borough should hereafter be disfranchised, for its corrupt practices which motion was carried by a majority of P29 to 55. * The Bill for lessening the expenses of Elections, by enacting that no persona who are employed, and paid for such employment ( see 4th page), aud which also goes to prevent candidate*, giving away ribbons at elections, was read a third time, after a division of 26 to 10.

LI. D. BROUGUTON. This respected Gentleman and Magistrate, whose humane interference and exertions on behalf of the unfortunate Idiot Smith, had been followed by a series of legal annoyances, last week received the gratifying and public testimonial of the high esteem in which his humane character and conduct are held by the inhabitants of that part of the country which surrounds his residence, nearly three hundred of whom, comprising the great majority of the most respectable Gentlemen and Yeomen of the vicinity, attended by the Peasantry, and accompanied by the members of the Eccleshall Friendly Society, met in the town of Eccieshall, on Thursday last, at two o'clock, and proceeded to Broughton Hall, a distance of five miles, to present an Address to him ex- pressive of their sentiments. Mr, Broughton received the assemblage on fhe lawn in front of his mansion ; when .. tbte Rev. Henry Moore, Vicar of Eccleshall, addressed him as follows:— My dear Sir,— I have been deputed by my excellent friends and neighbours around me, to present to you this Address, I am afraid that they have been unwise in their choice; for my personal friendship and attachment 10 you will hardly allow me to express the feelings of my heart; and I am now in danger of playing the woman when I would most desire to be iirm and collected. We come here, sir, to testify our respect for your character— not feeling that that character requires such a testimony j but, thinking, thiit under the present circumstances, and the attempt that has been made to harrass and annoy you, we should be Wanting in our duty if we did not thus loudly proclaim our respect, our gratitude, and, I will say, our most affectionate attachment. We have ever seen you discharge the duties of a magistrate with integrity, discretion, and humanity; und, on a late occasion, not only ice, but all this county have seen you rescue from suffering and misery one of the most afflicted and helpless of human beings. ( Loud cheers ) On that occasion as qn the present, your quiet was much disturbed; but il will make music to your heart at midnight, that you have been fhe means of affording to one of you. r fellow. creatures every comfort that his unfortunate condition will admit of. Publicly has your character been attacked, and here, [ pointing to the Address,~] and here, [ pointing lo the assemblage,] is the public answer. This Address, sir, is signed by upwahls of four hundred as respectable and worthy men as tread upon English ground— these are their sentiments. [ Here the Address was read, and the Rev. Gen- tleman, in putting it into Mr. Broughton's hands, added :] — These are our feelings We express our respect, for your character demands it : we express our thanks, as we are bound- in gratitude lo do. We request your future services, because we know thattbCy are neces- sary for the preservation of our property and our quiet. Sir, every heart that signed this Address, and every one that hears me, beats with one pulse, and echos back that it. is true, ( Immense cheering followed the Rev. Getitleman^ s sjteeeh.) To this Address, Mr. Broughton returned an appropriate answer; and the assemblage shortly afterwards separated, highly gratified with the consideration that they had been doing an act of justice to a Gentleman, whose well- known kindness of heart and manly conduct have entitled him to the respect and esteem of all ranks in his vicinity, and of every true friend of humanity throughout the Empire.

Nohleipan in question';. but from Ihe external ciminr. slnnces, u is ensy to judge of its nature and lendencv .

EDLESTON & ELWOOD, Solicitors. Our readers will learn, with great catisfnelion, that the king has not limited his defence of the ProlesVint Constitution to professions. Mr. Canning lately ( on Saturday, we believe,) laid before his Majesty a list or six or seven Scottish and Irish peers, wh'om bo wished lo have raised to the English peerage I ord nig stood first in the list. As soon as . his Ma- jesty had observed this, he asked whether Ihe other leers for whom tbe honour was sought, agreed i„ politics will, that Noble Lord. Mr. Ci'nuV was compelled to answer in the affirmative, upon which his Majesty deliberately struck his pen through' nil the. names tn succession; and commanded that no such proposition should he again made lo him. Our readers may rely upon this statement. There is a stroke of Mr. Canning's, which is not as generally kuoWn as it ought to be. This liberal prime' minister— this exact define.- of the prerogative, nctu- ally prnposed to tbe King to he ( in imitation of James Ihe Second, who was his own High Admiral) his own Commander- in- Chief. The fact is certain, hotwiih. standing its incredible absurdity, the Kin.' wis advised to place himself as Commander- in- Chief uuder the orders of his own cabinet council.

COTTON, NEAR WEM, MAY 19TH, 1827. DCKE OF CLARENCE.— On Wednesday, the highly respectable and wealthy Company of Goldsmiths of London, gave a grand dinner to His Roval Highness in Ihe ancient court- room of Goldsmilbs' Hall, to which about 2Q0 noblemen and gentlemen sat down. After dinner the freedom of the company was presented to His Royal Highness in ail elegant gold box.— The ceremo'iiy being concluded, the Prime Warden of the company rose, and proposed, iu an introductory speech " Church and King," id doing which lie referred in terms of great praise, to the Attachment professed and felt by his late Majesty and the Duke uf ri 1 • P L C'""' cl'. He a, so reminded the company of tbebigh honour conferred upon them by ihe presence of a member of the House of Brunsw ick, who professed llie same sentiments and principles ( I, mil cheers) I he Prime Warden then prnposed the health of Iheir illustrious visitor, whose presence shed so much lustre upon the company.— The Royal Duke rose amidst the loudest cheers. He fell, he said, exceedingly grateful tor Ibe warmth with which bis brother liverymen had drank Ins health. He was the more obliged for the mark of attention and respect with which he had been treated by the Goldsmiths' Company, iu tbe pre- sentation of Ihe freedom of tbe city, as* it was the only mark he had, for the 45 years that be bad been a public man, ever received from nuv one of tbe cor- porate bodies ( cheersJ. He felt ' peculiar pride in receiving this testimony from a company of such high respectability, and which stood so pre- eminent for loyalty, for firm attachment lo the King nnd constitu- tion in church and stale ( cheers); and thev « ' might rest assured, that his sentiments with regard lo ihe toast (' Church and King') which had been given a short time before, were in perfect unison with those of his late Majesty."—[ This declaration of His Roval Highness was enthusiastically cheered.] We have been informed that about seventy Peers, headed by the Dukes of Northumberland, Rutland, Beaufort, and Newcastle, tbe Marquis of Hertford, Scc. Scc. assembled on Monday last, at the residence of the Marquis of Londonderry, to consider of' the course necessary to be pursued at'this period, and the propriety of a representation and remonstrance to the King. Mr. Canning seems determined to face and to brave this formidable array. He cannot recede— be must be victorious, or sink as a statesman for ever. It is even reported, that rather than yield, he will try the desperate resort of a dissolution of Parliament, a measure which even his friends consider will prove most injurious to his Interest. The C'tlte of Newcastle gave n grand dinner on Wednesday, at his residence iu Portman square, to tbe Dukes of Wellington, Northumberland, and Rutland; Marquises Londonderry and Salisbury; Earls El don, Shaftesbury Westmoreland, Howe, Mansfield, Winchelsea, Falmouth, Mslmesbury, Lauderdale, Stanhope, Talbot, Lonsdale;. Lords Ellenborough, Kenyon, Beresford, Stranjrford, Melville, Colchester; aud Mr. Peel. The Budget will be brought forward in the House of Commons ou Friday next. A letter dated Constantinople, April 25, says that Saida Effendi, late Reia Effeudi, died suddenly ou the 20th; his death is stated to have been occvsioued by apoplexy, but it Is thought more probable to have been the effect of that malady which produces so many deaths in the Turkish empire.— It appears that a body of two thousand Albanians had landed on the Greek island of Imbros, and not content with plundering several villages, uud exacting a large contribution from the inhabitants, carried off many of the women and children.— Lord Cochrane has assumed the command of the Greek naval force. Buenos Ayrean papers to the 13t'n of March, and front Rio de Janeiro to the 6th of April, which arrived on Thursday, confirm the account of the battle between the Brazilian and the Buenos Ayrean armies, bul with this difference, that the latter appear to have gained a decided victory, the Brazilians having abandoned the field of baltle, leaving 1200 dead behind them, among whom were General Abreu and several other officers. The official account from Count de Alvear, the Com- mander of the Republicans, adds, that a great number of prisoners and arms, all the enemy's park and baggage, ten pieces of artillery, and the printing apparatus, are among the trophies of the army. Dispatches dated the 23d of March, were received on Thursday at the India House, from Colonel Macdonald, at Tabriez. They announce that a Russian force, consisting of between five and six thousand regular infantry, some battalions of Armenians, and about five thousand cavalry, was assembling at Charak and Cara- Calak, ou the banks of the Araxes, and that the Persian troops, under the command of Abbas Mirza, were stationed at Tabriez. Quebec papers of the 19th of April have arrived. They contain no further information regarding tbe reported disturbances in Canada; from which it is inferred, that they have either been much ex- aggerated, or that tbe disaffection had subsided. The Montreal papers are equally silent upon the subject. Accounts were received on Thursday announcing the death of Commodore Sir James Brisbane, C. R. late commanding his Majesty's ships in the East Indies. This gallant and highly meritorious officer contracted a severe illness during the operations on the Irrawady, from the effects of which he never recovered. He died on board bis Majesty's ship iVarspite, at Sidney, New South Wales. A Court of Common Council of the City of London was held on Wednesday, to vote an Address to His Majesty ou the change of Administration.— After some seasonable hints from Aldermen Thompson and Birch, and other of the most respectable members ofthe Corporation, as to the Hue of conduct pursued for some years past by the Common Council, which had lowered them in the estimation of the country, and after those gentlemen had pointed out the singularity of those who bad pro- moted Radical Petitions, and Addresses that were once carried to Bratideubiirgh House, now coining forward to Address the King-, tho motion for an Address was carried ! TRADE.— We are happy in saying that an en- couraging improvement continues to be felt in the manufactures of this town and tbe neighbourhood. Wages consequently are gradually rising, to the great comfort of the workman. There is a general and extensive demand for cotton cloth, at prices considerably higher; though iu yarns the markit is yet'dull, and prices low.— Manchester Chronicle, SALOPIAN JOURNAL., AMD COUSWBE2R OF WiXJES. © amtmana.

Nothing more was said to have been found till the third ; day - afterwards, when the" report of the circumstances being industriously spread, and having attracted a crowd of peasants to llie: f » ! pot, - the hoy w ho Wax the original discoverer entered w ith some of them ; and, lo his - own great astonishment and theirs, beheld in a cavity in a lock, " a linle image of our Lady of the Conception," about five inches in length, with a silk veil, very old, and of a pale colour, bordeied with silver lace, likewise very old." ' I'he whole parly having kissed and adored the image, replaced it in its former shrine. Next comes a pious female of the neighbourhood, who brought a wax candle, a lamp, and oil, lo light up the new object of her devotions, before which she immediately fell on her knees. Un- fortunately, 44 Our Lady," alter being thus honoured, was in) piously stolen. from ber eave; but such a mira- culous power could not he long lost to the faithful by petty larceny or sacrilegious violence. On the ifyird day alter the theft, as justice was about to commence iis investigations into ihe commission of ihe crime, two ploughmen, leading their oxen to he shod, were sur- prised to see one of these animals approach an olive tree, near the cave, and continued lo spin round it. notwithstanding their efforts to drive him forward. They looked up to this tree, arid beheld 44 our Lady stuck iu one of its cavities. The guards of ihe cave . were immediately called, the neighbouring judges assembled, the miraculous discovery was again an nonuced, and Ihe image, after receiving fhe adorations of the . peasants, was again solemnly replaced in its rocky shrine, with sacred lamps burning round it, and pros irate ignorance before it. Meanwhile the fame of ihe miracle spread to the City ami lire Court. The boy who was so fortunate as to catch ihe rabbit was ad milted to the Royal presence, to present it to His Majesty John VI. of blessed memory. The Queen proceeded to offer a silver candlestick to the new Virgin ; crowds assembled al the mouth of tiie cave booths for refreshment were erected iu the adjacent field ; new miracles were every hour wrought, to the amazement of the assembled multitude; and the richest offerings of all kinds poured iu abundantly, lo the edification and delight of 44 our Lady's" guardians. The follow ing are the words in which one of the above- named historians concludes the last fortnight of the Virgin's history :— 44 With what devotion— with what tenderness and tears— do not the assembled multitudes prostrate themselves in her presence? With what fervour do not they offer up their prayers, and with what punctuality does not the Mother of God reward such devotion, by showing her miracles in answer lo their supplications! Hanging up against the poor wall of ihe cave, we see immense testimonies ofthe gratitude and thanksgiving of the faithful— votive arms, legs, and whole bodies of wax, rings, two embroidered veils, two crowns of silver, wax caudles, silver lamps, quan- tities of oil, and a receipt" of 100 milrees of money for her service!'" In less than a month after the spread of her fame., she had received in her cave,- according to the same authority, a shrine adorned with silk, and a throne, on which she vvas placed— collars of gold and pearls— medals of gold, representing her person— six silver candlesticks,, of fine workmanship, from two Indie* of- tlie Court:—- a' breast piu, with a great aqua- marine stone, surrounded with diamonds, and a gold ring of topaz, with eight brilliants, from one of tiie Queen's maids of honour,- besides sundry crowns of silver, a crown of gold, a great assortment of rich , dresses, and nearly £ 500 in money. Such offerings' were foo- rich and abundant, and such devotions, excited by the preaching of monks, and exalted by the presence of multitudes, too enthusiastic and general uot to excite the attention of the Government. Some of the liberal members of the Cortes tried in vain to stem the torrentThey were nearly swept away with its fury. It was too m: uch, however, to leave 44 our Lady' in the hands of her country guardians. She was trans, ferred to the cathedral of Lisbon in about two mouths after her appearance ( on the 5th of August), with great pomp. Being taken from her cell by the priest of the parish where she was found, she was accompanied to the river by all the civil, religious, and military authorities of llie district, surrounded and followed by enthusiastic multitudes.- She was embarked on the Tagus, iu the hands of the same priest, and navigated up the river to ihe chief square of the city, wilh ai aquatic retinue greater than that of Lord Mayor's Day. There she was received by a procession of nil the religious orders of the capital, with their crosses, wax lights, and other paraphernalia,— by deputations of the courts and municipal bodies, and an immense concourse of spectators; whence she was carried in triumph to the cathedral, where she was placed on the altar dedi- cated to her worship, while mass was said, and Te Dcvm sitngyin honour of the day. Since that time she has been more profuse ofmiracn- lons influence, and more richly honoured with grateful offerings, than in her original abode. Seven or eio- ht of the large pillars of the church ( as thick ns those of Westminster Abbey) have been already covered with a frame- work of wood, to support the ex- votos of wax, wood, and other materials, presented in testimony of miracuious cures wrought by her means; and this frame- work is filled to the: lop. Probably not less than four or five waggons might be loaded with legs, arms, heads, trunks, chests, whole bodies^ and pictorial representations of cures from this vast repository of the Virgin's trophies. The richer offerings are, of course, better secured. " Our Lady's" reputation is far from diminishing. I only remained about half an hour in the church on my first visit to it, and I saw thrpe decently The Protestant Ascendancy. We were enabled to state in our last Postscript that the Earl of Harewood had, in the House of Lords on Monday night, enquired of the Bishop of London, whether he had authority for the statement made by his Lordship to the Clergy, respecting the sentiments of His Majesty on the subject of Roman Catholic Emancipationo this query the Right Reverend Prelate replied in the affirmative $ and it has since been stated, that in the course of a long and most intensely interesting conversation, or rather exposi- tion of sentiment, between His Majesty and the Archbishop of Canterbury, His Maj- esty repeatedly declared, that his opinions on the subject of further concessions to the Catholics were identical with those of his late Father and of the Duke of York, and that he took the same view not only as it regarded the spirit but also the literal meaning of the Coronation Oath; that as his opinions were the result of a con- viction, at which he had not arrived without the most mature deliberation, no arguments or representations could shake or alter those opinions • that in the: formation of the Cabinet a due regard would be had to the Protestant interests; and that, as a security for the maintenance of those principles, to which he was alike bound by duty and inclination, he had required from the Premier a pledge not only that the question of Catholic Emancipat ion should not be considered a Cabinet measure, but that the Right Hon. Gentleman should not promote the cause either directly or indirectly. His Majesty is said to have conveyed his opinions with great eloquence and earnestness of manner. On being asked by the Archbishop of Can- terbury whether His Majesty vvould allow his Grace to allay the apprehensions of his Clergy, by a commu- nication lo them of the substance of the declaration with which he had honoured him, the I^ iug. rejoined Certainly ; he wished every man in England to hear his sentiments upon this momentous subject.' How far His Majesty's wishes have been attended lo by Mr. Canning, will be evident to any one who peruses Ihe following list of the New Cabinet :— Mr. Canning - - First Lord of the Treasury and Chancellorofthe Exchequer.

Though I declined in my letter of yesterday to enter into any particular details of Ihe superstitious absurdi- ties practised here during the Holy Week, I am far from undervaluing the importance of the superstitious disposition of the nation in a political point of view at tlie present crisis. In order, indeed,, to estimate Ihe dangers which the Charier has to encounter from the machinations of ihe priests, it is necessary properly to estimate the religious prostration of ihe people. The body of Ihe clergy, secular and regular, is numerous; its hostility to the. new order of things is notorious; its wealth and possessions are enormous; hut it is not 30,000 fanatics, or the riches of 4( 0 c « nvenls, which are chiefly to he dreaded. The auxiliary which ihey have in the mass of the people, on whose consciences and ignorance they can so powerfully act, is of more consequence than their own numbers or pecuniary means of corruption. 44 What can be expected ( said nil English nobleman some forty or fifty years ago) from a people, one- half of whom slill believe iu the coming of a Messiah, and the other ip the return of JKing Sebastian, who was killed in Africa nearly three centuries ago?" Though the concealed . lews und Sebastiauists may not now be so numerous,— thanks lo the Government and ihe priesthood ever since,— the j> reat body of the nation believes as firmly as ever in ihe. efficacy of masses, the power of saints, and the frequent occurrence of miracles ; all of which may receive, and have latterly received, a political direction. As general principles are apt to mislead the judg- ment, or to leave no definite impression on the mind, I shall select a particular instance of lliis gross and brutal credulity, the history of which is undeniable, aud the evidence of which is exposed in the Cathedral to the eyes of all Lisbon. The instance to which I allude is the discovery, exhumation, travels, enthronement, and prodigies, of the miraculous image of Our Lady of the Cave, of the Rock, or the Babbit- Hole ( for such are some of her titles), which contributed so powerfully to overthrow the lale Cortes. I have before me three works upon the subject ( and probably a dozen more might be found), published by authority, ( he one of them by no less a person than the historiographer of Ihe kingdom, who tells us lhat 44 the glorious event will be illustrious in Lusitanian annals ;" and lhat, besides a • work describing the cave where the image was found, and a memoir on ihe 44 glorious triumph of ihe proces- sion which conducted it to fhe . Cathedral," already given to the public, lie is now engaged about a greater undertaking, which will enter into particular details of Ihe history of this 44 divine benefactress of Portugal." As the titles of these books may appear curious to some of our readers, and are in themselves striking proofs of the almost incredible superstition w hich 1 w ish to illus- trate, 1 make no apology for transcribing them. The first is called 41 Memorial of a Cave discovered on ihe 28th of May, 1822, in the hank of the Jamour, in the parish of Carnaxide, and of the Miraculous Evenis whieh'followed ;" ihe second is entitled 41 A Descrip- tion of a ra e Prodigy, and Discovery in a Cave, on the Sfitji of May, 1822, in ihe hank of ihe Jamour, nnd the various even s which followed, with nine days' devo- tions addressed lo our said Lady ;" and the thi/ d is more ambitiously styled 44 Nine Days' Devotions ( or Norena) addressed to ihe Miraculous Image of our Lady of the. Conception, of the Rock, dedicated lo our s lid Ladv, by Friar Chiudio da Conceicao, ex Difini- dor, Synodal Examiner of the Patriarchal See of Lis- bon, Royal Preacher, Historian and Father of ihe Province of Santa Maria d'Arrabida, and Historioy ra- phe r of ihe Kingdom." Lest theslatemenl of the facts referred to in the ahovementioned publications should he considered a profane fiction, if resting on less solemn authority, 5 have selected the following brief account of them from such unquestionable sources as the ahove. On the 28th of May, 1822, some idle boys, playing on the banks of a small stream below Belein, and about four or five miles from Lisbon, saw a rabbit, to which they gave chase, nud which escaped them, to burrow in the hank. A small dog which they had along with them pursued il into the hole, and ihe boys Crept in sifter the dog. This hole opened into a pretty spacious cave, iu which the boys are said to have found a quantify of bones ; but as yel no miraculous image was in view, nor, as has heen reported by the less veracious annalists, werejhe dog aud the rabbit both discovered on their knees before such a prodigy. Hearing of the cave and the bones, and thinking probably that the discovery might hp turned to some account, ihe Juiz de Fora of" the neighbourhood town of Ociras placed a guard al the niouih of the entrance till further search. dressed females present their offerings of gratitude for iu's medical assistance- in as mnnv wav. dnllc the Virgin's assistance, many wax- dolls and wooden images. Now, it must be allowed that 44 Our Lady of the Rock" was not politician enough, on her first emerging into light, to know her influence in the Slate, and therefore did not pronounce herself immediately an enemy of the Cortes, lint, having- received crovvns of gold and presents of rich jewels from the Queen and lhp courtiers, she soon began to work miracles against the Liberals, and shewed herself too powerful for their coritronl. To her, therefore, the King", ihe Queen, the Royal Family, the Court, the constituted authorities^ arid the nobility, proceeded to offer their thanks and vows, when the . Cortes was overthrown. The novena of our friar, 44 the historiographer of the kingdom,' ascribes to her the revolt of the troops at Villa Franca, the restoration of absolute power, and the triumph of Monkish superstition,— The whole object of his work, with all its Scripture quotations and saintly authorities, is to give to the Virgin's interpositions a political meaning. A multitude so brntisbly credulous ( includ- ing, unfortunately, a greater proportion of ihe higher orders than can easily be conceived) as that which exulted in the discovery ofthe wonder- working image ofthe rabbit- hole, when placed in the hands of men so knavish and corrupt as those who preached sermons and marshalled processions in its honour, must be always dangerous to liberty and attempted improve- ment. Probably in no'oiher country in Europe could such an ignorant and superstitious mass of people at present be found. Processions of grotesque folly— miracles wrought by saints of established reputation in the calendar— juggles played with ridiculous or dis- gusting relics— in short, a great part of the mummery of worship ami excesses of faith which Protestants are accustomed lo consider as the characteristics of the dark ages, are still to be seen to be in other Catholic countries; but Portugal, I think, may challenge the world to produce, in the nineteenth century, a history like that of our Lady of the Rock, or a scene like that now exhibited in the cathedral of Lisbon. BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS. The follow uig is a copy of the " Bill to make further regulation* for preventing corrupt practices at Elections of Membrrs to serve in Parliament, and for diminishing ihe expense of such Elections :"— 44 Whereas it is expedient to make further regula- tions for preventing corrupt practices at elections of members to serve in Parliament, arid for diininishim>- ihe expense of such elections ; be it therefore enacted by the King's most excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and consent of the Lords Spiritual and Tem- poral, and ihe Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, that from and after ihe day of if any person shall, either dining any election of a member or mem bers to serve in Parliament for anv coimiy, city, borough, cinque port, or other place in England, or far Ihe town of Berwick- npon.

Marquis of Lansdown TO THE KING. Extract from a Letter from the Duke of York io George HI. Feb. 13, 1801: " If my sentiments upon the question of Catholic Emanci- pation had not been immutably fixed, the arguments adduced in favour ot' the measure would alone have been sufficient to have convinced me of the danger, if not of the absolute certainty, of the dreadful consequences of its being carried into effect. ( Signed) " FREDERICK." SIRE,— The declaration made by your Majesty to the Archbishop of Canterbury aiid Bishop of London, ex- pressive of your Majesty's emire adoption of ihe sentiments of our late honoured Sovereign, and ihe deeply- lamented Duke of York, cannot but be highly gratifying to all real Protestants. As one of that class, I feel that we have much cause lo complain that the episcopal bench , have not. spo. ken out in Parliament,* ; declaring their concurrence with what is the conviction of every conscientious, honest Protestant, that your Majesty's interpretation of that original contract between the King and his people is the only one which it is capable of receiving, when well reflected on, except from Jesuits or Liberals. It is obviously the intention of your Majesty's Prime Minister to allow, for the present, that weight should be given to your Majesty's sentiments, for the sake of calming the ap- prehensions of the great Protestant body of Great Britain. It is equally obvious that it is his design to endeavour hereafter to persuade your Majesty to relin- quish such conviction ; and for that purpose to add to the number of favourers of the Romish claims in both Houses of Parliament. In considering the coronation oath itself, it cannot but be obvious that he who has taken it as an honest man, must enter much more strictly and conscientiously into its bearings and obli- gations than politicians are likely to do. The animus imponentis must he conscientiously regarded by your Majesty. The words of the oath, and theoretical wild speculations, need alone be regarded by politicians, lu such way it is that the authority of the amiable Lord Liverpool is attempted to be used, to withdraw your Majesty from that sound construction, which Jure jam proprio animo paterno, your Majesty, in consonance with the sentiments of every honest, straightforward Protestant in your domi- nions, has proclaimed to be your own ! Casuistry and Jesuitism only can doubt as to what would have been the sentiments of Somers, Godolphin, and the other great men living at the time of the revo- lution. No honest man, Sire, can believe, that when those great men superadded the security, that the King should be a Protestant of the Established Church, and that he should take his oath 44 to the utmost of his power to maintain the Protestant religion;" and, moreover, such honest men reflecting at the same time on the circumstance, that these securities for the Protestant cause were superadded to the exclusion of Romanists from Parliament, and from offices of power and influence; — no honest- minded Protestant, Sire, I presume to say, would think that a King of the House of Brunswick would fulfil the conditions by which he holds the throne, or have beeu thought to do so by those great men who established the revolution, if, in the nineteenth century, he re- admitted to legislative and official power those whom it was the object of the revolution permanently to exclude. I will not insult your Majesty by arguing the policy of granting con- cessions. I think the impolicy becomes yearly more glaring and obvious ; but to that question your Majesty with hereditary dignity and firmness replies 4k 1 have an oath in heaven." Sire' your subjects, your loyal Protestant subjects, will hold in contempt those who can presume to suppose you can be per- verted from the sentiments expressed Jo the companion of your younger days— that great man, Mr. Fox— on his being in office in 1806, by any subterfuge or inge- nuity of argument, which any one can adduce. Had it been in man's power to shake the true inherited Protestant conviction of your Royal mind, who hut Mr Fox could have done so? To the pigmy minds of these ( lays might be replied, 44 Doth not Brutus boot less kneel?" The mode suggested to induce your1 Majesty to violate your oath is one strange indeed for Protestants to urge; though it might well suit the Romanists and Jesuits, in whose behalf it is adduced. The argument is this, Sire '. — If the two Houses of Par- liament will sanction Emancipation, your Majesty i* absolved from your oath ; in other words, the Revolu- tion provided a security for the Protestant cause iu having a Protestant King, bound by his oath, to the utmost of his power, to support ihe Protestant cause ; but the moment the two Houses of Parliament deseri that cause, and the oath becomes of value, it is to be abrogated! The doctrine is worthy of the religion in behalf of which it is used. No, Sire, if all the rest of the kingdom shall submit to such construction, as a Protestant I am confident your Majesty will adopt the Royal declaration, that, if honour is abandoned by the rest of mankind, it should keep its seat in the breast of a king.— I have the honour to be, Sire, your Majesty's faithful confiding subject, A TRUE PROTESTANT. • This was written before the Bisbop of London had affirmed the truth of the statement in the House of Peers. [ FROM THE MORNING POST.] If is a curious question of political morality, which of the two parties, the Canning or the Whig, have most deeply degraded themselves, and most. eul'irely forfeited the respect and Confidence of the country by their unnatural and unprincipled coalition; nor can a final adjudication be made to each of ils proper portion of the common infamy, till we learn from ihe measures of the new administration, ( for from such men professions of course can go for nothing,) how much of principle has been surrendered on the one hand tothe restless desire of supremacy, and how much bartered on ihe other for the emoluments of office. When we behold the men who have ever heen the most strenuous as- serters of popular rights, the prompt apologists of popular excesses, the fierce denouncers of whatever new restraints have become necessary during occa- sional periods of popular delusion and effervescence-— range themselves under the political banners of one who of all modern statesmen has shewn himself the least indulgent to the errors of the populace, the most vehement supporter of all measures of severity, the foremost upon every occasion to'require that the hands of authority should lie strengthened — when we see the, aiders and the abettors of democratic revolution in every country unite themselves with him who has been dis- tinguished as one of the most eloquent and haughty assertors of kingly prerogative,- as one of the most bold and energetic defenders of whatever is most aristocratic in our own venerable institutions — when we see elements naturally so hostile thus forced into combination by the. undisguised agency of sordid self- interest and insatiable ambition, we are compelled, in whatever proportions we may divide it between two parties, to conclude that the aggregate of ignominy is enormous, that it nViist in the end prove fatal to both, or that it must, shed ever- lasting disgrace upon the nation by which its revolting exhibition is endured. Judging-, however, as we are compelled to judge, only by what is past, we cannot but allot the larger share of the delinquency to him who fills the most elevated station. It is not on account of that station, neither is it because he might on many accounts have been expected to be peculiarly careful of his political reputation— a reputation which, although not Without many flaws, was still worlh preserving; nor yet is it because of the disappointment which his conduct has inflicted upon us in common with all the respectable portion of his former admirers, that we are disposed to lay the heaviest censure upon him. it is, because in looking back upon recent transactions we perceive that the blandishments and caresses which are now suffi- ciently intelligible, which preceded ami smoothed the way for the disgraceful junction, proceeded invariably from him who ought to have been the most incapable of such arts. We have space to notice but one instance of these blandishments and caresses— but it is a finished and complete specimen— we mean the celebrated speech on the affairs of Portugal. This speech — in its tone, tem per, and spirit, an accurate, that is to say, a servile imitation of that delivered hy Mr. Brougham at the French invasion of Spain— was, it is now obvious, in- tended to propitiate the admirers, noble and ignoble, of that respectable politician. It produced upon them its desired effect; but it produced also other effects, not at the moment so desirable. It alarmed the consistent and honourable statesmen who were the colleagues of the eloquent speaker, and whose confidence he thought it convenient for some time longer to retain: and it produced unequivocal symptoms of displeasure from the representatives of those Foreign Courts which it threatened and insulted. In this dilemma, it became necessary for the representative of the Majesty of Eng- land to print a speech, differing essentially from that which he had altered, or, to express the same idea in more homely phrase, to eat his- words. It was by this new, ingenious, and dignified device, that he contrived at once to calm ihe suspicions of his actual colleagues* to allay the just displeasure of Foreign Monarchs, the all: esof England, and to allure his former antagonists by the semblance of having1 become a convert to their disorganizing and revolutionary creed. The watchful and eager Whigs were not likely to forget the maxim, that 44 out of the fullness of the heart the mouih speak- eth;" nor, on the other baud, were his charitable colleagues, or the Foreign Powers, whose respect and confidence they commanded, . likely to refuse him the benefit of what seemed to be a prompt and spontaneous disavowal. He now, accordingly, enjoys the short- lived triumph of short- sighted cunning. ffltsccUanmss InteUigauf. INDEPENDENCE OF WESTMINSTER— A large body of Ihe electors of Westminster dined at the Crown and Anchor, on Wednesday, to celebrate the anniver- sary of the " Triumph of tiie independence of liial city in returning two Members to Parliament."— Sir Francis Burdett was iu the chair; and 011 his health being proposed, llie notorious Cobhett got up to arraign tlie Baronel's conduct. The confusion llint ensued was dreadful. Cobbe. lt charged Sir Francis willi apostney, in now supporting Mr. Canning, the avowed and implacable encmv of Parliamentary Reform. Sir F. Bnrdett, in defence', stated, that lie supported Mr. Canning because he thought Reform and Emanci- pation would he thereby advanced, and because il was the only opportunity by which the country could gel rid of Ihe seceding Ministers, who, with tlieir prede- cessors of the same stamp, hud been the greatest opponents of those views of civil and religious liberty which he had always cherished. Mr. Orator Hunt afterwards addressed the meeting. He complained that Sir Francis Burdett and the H'liigs had not made their own terms with Mr. Canning: for as neither Ihe seceding Ministers could have gone on without Mr. Canning, nor Mr. Canning without Sir Francis and the Whigs, the hitter should have made iheir own terms with him before they gave him Iheir support. Lord William Russell proposed the health nf Mr. ( tollhouse; 011 which Cobbeit said he would drink that toast, because Mr. Holihouse " had called Cannin. abandoned knave!"— The scene of uproar was now- renewed ; fighting commenced iu various parts of the room; and the glasses were flying in every direction. AU the wands of Ihe. stewards got broken iu ihc at- tempts to keep order; and, as a finish 10 the scene, a table oil which Cnhbett and snine of his party were standing, came down with ils load to the floor. — In vain did many of the party call Cohhett a hone- grubber tell him to pay his debts, and try every other means to silence him short of actual violence: he stood it all without flinching, and, with his party, continued to annoy the company and interrupt tiie proceedings during the hole evening. On the health of Lord Nugent being drank, his Lordship returned thanks, and complimented Hunt for his conduct that evening; hut alluded lo Cohbctt in terms of merited contempt. Wooller ( the Black Dwarf) wns finally called to the chair ; and the meeting afterwards separated. A poor ragged urchin was tried ( at the last West- morland Sessions) for stealing an old jacket from a lime kiln; proof" was stioug as lioiy writ;" the Chairman summed up with clearness and precision, and the wisdom of the yeomanry was now to be condensed. After a long deliberation on this knotty pcint, they turned round—" Gentlemen, have you agreed upon your verdict;" when the Foreman peeped cunningly from beneath a shaggy front, and said, " Not guilty, but he ought to be severely reprimanded for stealing- it." THE DUKE or CLARENCE.— His Royal Highness presided al the anniversary dinner uf the Society for Promoting Christian Knowledge, ou Tuesday ; and in addressing the assembly, he said, " Whether the declaration 1 am about 10 make he popular or 1111 popular, 1 think it right, in deference to the peculiar character of this meeting, lo declare, at this time, that lo the sound and rigid principles of the Church of England, I am unalterably attached— and that it will be, at all times, aud under all circumstances, mv first desire aud duty to maintain those principles." In another part of his address his Royal Highness said, " In the official situation which His Majesty has been graciously pleased to place me in, 1 shall deem it one of my first duties to see that the Chaplains of His Majesty's ships are men of regular education and orthodox principles, and lhat ( he books circulated foV the use of the seamen are of that sober and suitable character that may lend to their real improvement." His Royal Highness, in Ihe course of his addresses lo Ihe company, made several allusions io Ireland, as a country in which he felt the strongest interest, as well from other circumstances as from his having person- ally visited it ; and he expressed the deepest anxiety for the welfare of the Proleslaut Church ill that part ol the Empire. Wednesday, immediately after morning prayers at Kensington church, a gentl - man of very respect- able appearance and deportment publicly renounced the errors of Popery, and was admitted a member of the church of England, in the presence of a numerous congregation. The service on this oc- casion was performed in a very impressive manner by the Archdeacon of London under the sanction of the Bishop. On Monday, a very numerous and highly respect- able meeting of persons fiiendly to the establish- ment of a Society for the diffusion of the Principles of the Reformation, was held at Freemasons' Hall, London.— Lord Vaudeville took the chair, and the meeting was addressed, in support ofthe object for which it was assembled, by the Earl of Roden, the Bishop of Lichfield and Coventry, Lord Farnham, the Earl of Winchilsea, Lord Carberry, the Hon. and Rev. Gerard Noel, the'Hon. and Rev. Baptiste Noel, & c. & c.— The various resolutions for the formation of a Society, were unanimously adopted, and a considerable collection was made.— The ne- cessity of furthering and snppvrtiug. the Reformation now carrying 011 in Ireland was universally ac- knowledged, and it was shewn, from the books used 111 the Roman Catholic schools, that while the circulation of the Scriptures was forbidden by the Priests, the Roman Catholic children were invari- ably taught to beiieve that their Church was infal- lible, and. that all. Protestants were absolutely excluded from Heaven ! Tbe Duke of Northumberland gave a grand dinner on Tuesday at Northumberland- house to the Dowager Marchioness of Exeter, Earl Eldon, the Bishop of Durham, Earl Powis, Lord and Lady Sidmonth, Sir Herbert and Lady Taylor, Sir Willoughby and Lady Gordon, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Clive, Mr. and Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Bennett, Captain Percy, & c. It has been said, that the wisest men often say the most foolish things. The Society for the Diffusion of Knowledge have published a book, in which they tell those who are studying Hydrostatics, that a pint of water weighs more or less according to the shape of the pot. They might as well say that it measures more or less; since the pressure 011 the bottom of the pot will of course be in proportion to the square of the diameter, multiplied by tiie height of the water. But the weight of the whole, including the pot, must be the same, provided the pot weighs and the water measures the same. Dispatches, dated Ihe 12th instant, were received 011 Tuesday, at the Colonial Department, from Lieut, General Sir W. Clinton, G. C. B. commanding the British troops in Portugal. ' I'he whole of the British troops were marching on Lisbon. The Duke of Bedford has, we understand, at length let the whole of his g round in the neighbour- hood of Tavistoek- square, to Mr. Cubitt, and other eminent architects, 011 building leases, with an understanding that the houses shall be of the first class. REPRESENTATION OF WORCESTER— It is gener- ally understood that, in the event ofa Dissolution of Parliament, Col, Davies and Mr. Robinson will again offer themselves to represent Ihis city in Parliament; Mr. Griffiths will also again come forward. A fourth candidate has been named, but al present we do not feel ourselves at liberty to refer more distinctly to the individual alluded to — Worcester Journal. GLOUCESTER FREEMEN.—- The Freemen of Gloucester, resident in and near Painswick, having expressed a wish that their respected neighbour, John Phillpotls, of Gloucester, Esquire, would attend a meeting of his brother freemen at that place; Monday last was fixed for that purpose. From an early hour iu the morning the bells ot the Church rung inei ry peals, and before Mr. Phillpotls reached Ibe town he was met by a large body of freemen, who took the hoi si s from his carriage, and, headed by a band of music, drew him wilh joyful acclamations to the inn, where he, with upwards of sixty freemen, dined to- gether.— The health of Mr. Phillpotls having been given wilh hearty wishes for his return to Parliament on tiie next vacancy in the representation ot Glouces- ter, lhat gentleman expressed his thanks with consi- derable feeling for Ihe honour intended hiin; and after expatiating 011 the independence of his principles, and expressing his anxious wishes to promote the best interests of the City of Gloucester, be concluded by assuring Ihe meeting lhat he should be perfectly ready to obey Ihe call of his fellow- citizens, whenever an opportunity offered ; and to serve them faithfully to the best of his abilities. This declaration w as received with demonstrations of the most cordial satisfaction by the company assembled, after which many loyal and constitutional toasts were given, and the convi viality of the evening was continued wilh the greatest spirit till a late hour. A discovery, Interesting alike to the naturalist and to the geological student, was made a few days ago in the Moat Colliery, ' 111 the parish of Tipton, Staffordshire. A petrifaction resembling part ofthe trunk of a considerably sized tree towards the butt, measuring in length two feet four inches, and in circumference four feet ten inches, with the bark formed into coal, was found nearly in an upright position, among the strata of ironstone, at the depth of upwards of two hundred yards below the surface, and which, in the extraction of it, was broken from the upper part of the trunk, which still remains in the earth. On the exposure of this fossil to the atmospheric air, the coal formed from the bark shivered from the trunk. So great a curiosity is this specimen considered, that the Proprietors of the Colliery, at their quarterly meeting, passed a resolution, generously offering it as a present to the Trustees of the British Museum, and there can be 110 doubt that it will be deemed a valuable acquisition to the numerous fossils which are already deposited in lhat national institution. A very curious discovery was made in the Ca- thedral here, yesterday, which has occasioned a great sensation in the town. In carrying into effect certain alterations and improvements at the eastern end of Ihe church, and in that part known as the Chapel of the Nine Altars, an old oaken coffin was found, containing tho remains of some distinguished personage— believed to be 110 other than the Patron Saint, St. Cuthbert, " whose restless body in the three hundred and ninth yeare after his first buriall, was with all funeral pompe eushriu'd,' in " the White Church" at Durham, in the year 995, or 832 years ago! The skeleton was found to be remarka- bly perfect, and enclosed in the remains of robes, richly worked with gold, a large and iTright gold ring, having a crucifix, apparently of silver, ap- pended, was found lying on the breast, and below it the remains of a book; a large comb was also found in the coffin. The wood of which the collin was composed, was about three inches in thickness, and strongly clamped with bars of iron.— Durham Advertiser. HORRID DEPRAVITY.— The Preston Chronicle of Saturday Inst contains an account of ihe most horrid crime that any human creature can be guilty of, hein no less than deliberate murder committed ou the wretched culprit's own parents.— The victims iu this horrid affair are a man and his wife, named John and Mary Scott, who keep a small shop in Bridge street, in that town. The man was well known in the town and neighbourhood from his travelling- Ihe country with cotton fen Is, and other articles uf that description ; and from being accustomed to attend the markets and fairs of that and some neighbouring towns.— This couple had a daughter living wilh them named Jane, about twenty- two or twenty- three years of age, whose depraved and dissolute conduct had occasioned Ihem much anxiety. Although so young, she has already been Ihe mother of two children, the last of which died about two months ago, so suddenly, suspicious are now entertained of its death having been produced by violent means— On Monday evening week, Ihe unfortunate couple who have heen thus" suddenly called to their last account, were taken ill, after eating part of the porridge lhat had been prepared by the daughter for their supper; and, although means were laken within a short time lo restore them, the poison mixed with the porridge was too powerful lo be resisted. The mother accordingly died about three o'clock, and the father at five, the followiug morning. — A Coroner's inquest was held 011 the bodies of the diccased, when the jury returned a verdict of wilful murder agaiust Jane- Scott. HORRID PRACTICE OF BURNING WIDOWS IN INDIA.— It appears from official returns that iu the Presidency of Bengal alone, from ihe years 1819 to 1823, 110 fewer lhan three thousand and fifty- nine of these dreadful murders took place. The fear lest in- terference 011 the part of this country might be attended with danger, can- have liltle, if any effect on Ihe minds of those wlio are at all acquainted with Ihe many instances, in which far greater interference vvith Iheir prejudices has created among the natives neither alarm nor even offence. For instance— the dreadful crime of infanticide formerly prevailed to an awful extent, and il was asserted that the practice could not he checked without endangering tlie safety of our Indian empire. Yet did Ihe firmness of one individual, Colonel Walker, repress il al Gazerat, where not less than three thousand female infants were thus annually sacrificed ; and in 180- 2 the Marquis Wellesley abolish- ed Ihe custom hy a single order in council, declaring it punishable as murder. Mr. Southcy, in one of his woiks, refers to a remark of the Indian priests, who confessed that the British authorities might abolish the burning of widows by the simple act of inflicting a fine upon every Bramin present at such a scene. Places of Worship in the Metropolis.— Episcopal Churches and Chapels, 200; Independent Chapels, 66; Wesleyan Methodist ditto, 36; Baptist ditto, 32 ; Calvinistic Methodist ditto, 30; Presbyterian ( Scotch and Unitarian,) ditto, 16; Roman Catholic ditto, 14; Quaker's Meetings, 6— Total < 100. Cal- culating the average attendance at 500, aud that one in three only can be present at Divine Service 011 account of age, sickness, & c. the number of persons provided with accommodation in that way- ill London, will amount to 110 more than six out of every thirteen of the inhabitants!— The Churches of the Establishment are calculated for only three out of every thirteen ! The quantity of coals consumed in the metropolis is about a million and a half of chaldrons annually. The consumption during the latter years of the last war, was about a million ehaldrousa year; in which the owners of the coal pits, and the colliers iu the north, anticipated a considerable reduction 011 the return of peace. The quantity, however, remained pretty steady for three or four years ; when, about 1820, owing to the introduction of gas- lights, and the rapid increase of steam- vessels 011 the Thames, the quantity began to increase; and, in the course of about five or six years, that increase has been nearly 500,000 chaldrons. Doctor Hoadley Ashe, ( lately dead,) one of the guests at a dinner party, was nephew of Dr. Hoadley who wrote the Suspicious Husband. I had the pleasure of sitting uext Dr. Ashe at dinner, when he began a story with—." As eleven of my daughters aud 1 were crossing Piccadily."—" Eleven of your daughters, doctor J" 1 rather rudely interrupted. " Yes, Sir," rejoined the Doctor, " 1 " have nineteen daughters, all living; never had a son ; and Mrs, Ashe, myself, and nineteen female Ashe plants, sit down one- and- twenty to dinner every day. Sir, 1 am smothered with petticoats."— Dibdin's Remi- niscences. HOUSE OF COMMONS- TUESDAY. COURT OF CHANCERY. Mr. M A. TAYLOR moved for ihe appointment of a Committee, to consider of the propriety of separating the Bankruptcy Jurisdiction from the office of Lord Chancellor, lie set forth, at considerable length, the injurious delays, which hail long been the subject of complaint, and strongly insisted on the importance of effecting that change of system which he took upon' himself lo recoil] 111enil. The motion was opposed hy the ATTORNEY- GENERAL,-' Dr. LCSHINGTON, and Mr. BROUOBAM, who contended, lhat it was nol proved that the evils in question ought ti » be charged 011 the system. Rendering all honour to llie lute Lord Chancellor's great talents, they considered his cautious doubts to have produced indecision and mischievous delay, and were of opinion that Ihe present Judges in Equity w ould he equal to the discharge of all the business. Till now, Mr. Brougham maintained thai! all those high situations bail never been, at one time, efficiently filled, lie therefore proposed that, for a year, the experiment should be made of what might he effected under such circumstances, confidently anti- cipating that the result would be favourable to the existing system, and most satisfactory to the country. Mr. D. W. HARVEY supported the motion, mid expressed his surprise that those members, who for- merly were inveighing against the abuses of the Court of Chancery, should now he unable to see any defect, merely because ihey had themselves gone over to the other side ol* the House. Mr. M. A. TAYLOR contended, that without tlm system was altered, the present Lord Chancellor could effect 110 more than his predecessor. On a division the motion was lost by a majority of 137 10 34. PROTESTANTS IN FRANCE — In the French Chamber of Deputies, on the 18th instant, a debate of rather an interesting nature took place.— The order of the day was the Budget des Affaires F. cclesiastiques, and Ihe discussion was opened hy a speech of the Bishop of Hermopolis.— After some observations from M. Sebastiani and others, M. B. Constant rose, and de- clared that he presented himself to the Chamber as u Protestant, and with a view to the special discussion of one point — the difficulties under which ihe children of Protestants laboured, from the National Schools being exclusively dependent 011 the Roman Catholic Priests. He complained, not only of no Protestants being- ap- pointed to superintend the education of youth, but of the successive displacement. of those who already held appointments. I11 respect to private establishments, he stutcd that Protestant boarding schools were uot allowed to receive Catholic pupils, though in Catholic boarding- schools no similar obligaiion was imposed. The orator went on, amidst considerable interruptions, to enu- merate other cases in which the Protestants were treated unjustly ; and at length touched on the recent disputes among the students in several seminaries, which lie attributed to the same feelings of partial treatment, irritated by the machinations of Government spies.— The Minister of the Interior spoke in answer to M. B. Constant, who was afterwards heard in replv.— The Keeper of the Seals afterwards addressed the Chamber, in vindication of the Ministers, and denied that the riols among the students had been fostered by the agents of Government.— Immediately al'ler the ad- journment of the Chamber, M. B. Constant was sum- moned before the . luge d'Instruction, lo deliver up ihe documents found, as lie alleged, on the person of a Government Agent, aud which he appealed to in proof of liis accusation of the Ministry.

As Mr. Edward Read, a bird- fancier, was engaged in taking nightingales, & c. lie observed an adder, which he secured; 011 showing it to a gentleman of this town skilled in that line, it was pronounced harmless; and ill consideration of his opinion, he allowed the reptile to crawl about his face. Read took it home, and after keeping it about three weeks he took it up in a sportive way, when it whirled round his hand, and bithis finger ; in a few minutes the whole arm to the elbow swelled to three " times its natural size— he was taken to our county Infirmary, where lie was received as an in- patient. At first he was considered in danger of losing his life, but we are happy to state that danger is past, and that he is in a fair way of recovery.— Bedford Gazette. RATTLE- SNAKF. S.— A report was lately read to the Aeademie des Sciences at Pnris, from a committee appointed to examine into the circumstances which attended tbe death of Mr. Drake, at Rouen, 011 the Sth of last February. Mr. Drake was an Englishman, of about fifty years of age, and was conveying from Loudon to Paris three rattle- snakes and several young croco- diles. Notwithstanding Ihe precautions which he had laken to defend them from cold on Ihe road, he found after his arrival lhat the finest of Ihe rattle. snakes was dead. The two others, which seemed in a languishing condition, were carried in Iheir cage into Ihe dining- room, and placed near Ihe stove. On exciting them with a small slick, one of tliein did not give any sign, of life. To assure himself of the fact, M r. Drake was so imprudent as lo open ihe cage, to take hold, of the reptile by ihe head and Ihe tail, and approaching the window," to handle it for ihe purpose of ascertaining whether or not it was dead; when the snake suddenly turned its head a quarter round, and plunged one of its fangs inlo the hack of Mr. Drake's hand! The poor man cried out, pronounced several words in English, and, to prevent any further accident, did not let go tbe snake, but was putting it again into the cage, when he received another bite in ihe palm of the same hand. He then ran inlo the yard- earnestly desired lhat a physician might be sent for— looked for water, and not finding it fast enough, rubbed his baud upon some ice at Ihe door. Two minutes afterwards, he look a cord nnd bound it round his arm below the wrist. His agita- tion and anxiety were continually increasing, when 111. arrival of the physician in snme degree trunqnillised him. The wounds were immediately cauterised; and the patient drauk half a glass of olive oil. He then appeared perfectly composed; lint in Ihe course of a few minutes the most fatal symptoms manifested them- selves, and destroyed al! hope of saving the unhappy victim. His death took place in eight hours and three quarters after the accident. On examining ihe body, the outside presented nothing reinarkuble. In the inside, the organs were all heallhy. It was observed with astonishment, lhat neither the brain nor the spinal marrow had experienced any change, except that the membrane which covered it was slightly tinged with red. The veins did not seem to he inflamed ; and tbe only morbid appearance which Ihe corpse exhibited, was a great number of clols of blood in the veins of the bitten side. It is a curious fact, and one which shews the activity and power of the venom, that the rattle- snake which hit Mr. Drake having been sent to the Museum of Natural History, and there dissected, one of the operators pricking himself eight days afterwords with Ihe suolpel which had been employed in tlie dissection, was immediately attacked with a swelling in the hand, violent pains in the glands of the arm, See.
